Decided to start dark period(24-48hrs) day 85 mostly milky not much amber maybe some amber on the sugar leaves. I wanted to go 90+days with this auto but I needed the space in the tent for my photos and she looks almost ready, would’ve liked to see a little more amber but nevertheless I haven’t grown much at all so don’t have too much preference yet on trichomes. I’ll chop in a day or two and dry in my smaller tent and hopefully it goes well, my first harvest I dried too fast in low humidity and wasn’t that pleased with the end result. This time I’m planning on lowering exhaust speed and to not be so scared of 50+humidity in drying area and raise it to around 60humidity after a few days. Can’t think of anything else to write, but I’ll update after the chop and dry and 🙏 hopefully all goes well.

Vamos a ir viendo las siguientes semanas como vienen!!

trimmed and netted the plants last night, 12/30, and the energy pushed the plants to stretch another 1/2 inch+ this will be the last week of vegetation as I prep this light leaking tent for flower, not a fan of mars hydro at all right now. their poles are the weakest I've encountered yet, too many light leaks and this is the first grow with it. My high cfm fan , which is only a 4", is pulling the fabric too much and causing the leaks to grow a bit. This is not new, its been happening with indoor tents for a while now but I thought a grow company such as MH would have a decent, respectable tent. My solution is Blackout Curtains draped over the sides. However, I am hesitant to do this with the MH tent as the poles for the tent are too weak as it is, tsk tsk tsk mars hydro. will continue to increase the watts the next 6 days HAPPY NEW YEAR a combination of light and fresh soil has made the plants stretch so I will finish tightening up the MH tent today and ill start flower tomorrow, day 62. while adjusting the height I must have nudged the dial for the dimmer and sent it to 184w. this would have been a big jump but manageable but I lowered the light 7" and the plants took a bit of a hit. I adjusted the light back down to 160w and I'll let the plants recover before anymore adjustments.

The girls are really starting to fruit up, they have been on 10 scoops of flower food per week and this past week we added one scoop of flower finisher to the mix. Their feeding has been split into two days so as not to flood the plants with nutrients and burn the leaves. This means they still get their 10 scoops but in 5 scoop intervals. Watering has been every 2 days because of the 12/12 light schedule the soil doesn't dry out as quickly. The buds are getting massive on the White Widow plant, they are getting to be too heavy for the branches so I have begun to support the lower branches by tying them up to the main stem. I am using a plant wire so that as the plant moves and grows it isn't constricted. You can see the green supports in the newest pictures I uploaded. I also began thinning out the fan leaves so that all of the plants energy can be focused on the bud growth regions. I began removing the larger fan leaves that were blocking light to the bud regions. You can see how the plants are less bushy now. This should provide some low stress to the plants and boost bud production. Continued to thin out the fan leaves today. Made a lot of progress, now all of the bud sites should be receiving light. We also began a new fertilizer. I added a flower finisher into the mix with the Build A Bloom 2-10-5 flower food. Starting with just a 2 scoops mixed into the other flower food from pride lands. Cut down the pride lands scoops to 3 per serving to balance out with the new 2 scoops of flower food. This will keep me at 1 scoop per gallon of media per plant per week.

Here we are in what it will be the final week... I am now at day 61 and I'm considering to cut at the end of this current week... in 2 days basically... I recently bought a scope that allows me to check the trichomes and I can see all milky ones, I also posted some videos of it, please guys let me know your thoughts... Beside this buds are hard like rocks and smell still pretty intense and I cannot wait to taste this short but bulky phenotype. I'll keep you guys posted if I harvest or not this week hoping to read some of your comments. So Stay tuned, stay high! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Little update at Day 63. I decided to give her few more days, so next week will be chopping her, this mostly cause I watered her last time on Day 61 and now I am basically just waiting for the soil to be dry. I count to put her in the dark for 48 hours at Day 65 and finally chop her at day 67, I cannot wait to update you for the harvesting part. I expect to reach 50/60 grams dry and I really hope to achieve that. Keep you guys posted! Stay tuned, stay high!

well, that day dawned :) growing in a suitcase was really difficult, temperature, humidity, plant growth, everything was very difficult to control, but I managed something, it was an extremely interesting experience :) 119 gr wet, I think it will be between 25-30 gr dry , which I think is really good from the suitcase :) it was something different than usual, and now I'm going to grow another begina, which is much bigger than this one :) good luck to everyone, and thank you.:)

Plants started growing very fast. 20 hours light a day and 140 ml water for 2 plants so 35 ml each plant. (70ml -35ml one plant- morning, and 70ml -35ml one plant evening). From Monday I will start giving 200ml water 100ml in the morning and then the rest in the evening. Ventilation almost 24 hours, They are getting bushy and the color looks healthy green. I am excited. Purple Punch ( the right one) does not have the smell but the Gelato Cookie D'ohpe started smelling from the 3rd week, it is not strong, it is smooth, enjoyable. I still use trigger spray but I stopped triggering directly on the plant to avoid any fungee or toxicity, I just keep the soil moist. I surrounded them with kitchen foil around the lamp to have a more effective light. It reflects the light and the light goes everywhere. This step has been done because I have only the 60w LED each plant so I try to provide the maximum strength this way, and by keeping close distance also. The lamp is not hot so it ain't gonna burn the plant I had checked it before. I just purchased today a 600w LED because these plants look so good so I wanna provide the best circumstances for them. 4th-week 4th day I a just waiting for my delivery my 600 W grow LED light will come. From today I started watering with 50ml each plant 2 times a day so all together 200ml a day. Plus I always use trigger spray for the soil to be kept wet. They are looking better and better. Nice color and bushy appearance. Wonderful. I realized some holes on the Gelato Cookie D'ohpe's leaf but there is no insect I was checking. I do not really know the reason for that. Tonight I will set up the new 600 W LED so I am changing the current 120W. Big Step forward! It is not that easy that I thought, the lamp is great but the temperature raised up a lot, so needed to buy a fan also and the humidity went down. It is not easy to find the proper solution to be acceptable, good temperature and humidity at the same time. So I decided to program a 6/2 schedule, so 6 hours light on and the fan always with 15 min more, and 2 hours off so I do provide 18 hours light and 6 hours darkness but it is divided. The plants can rest after every six hours and use the energy they received. Last day of the 4th week, LST has been done with the Gelato Cookie D'ohpe, both are growing rapidly, let's see what the 5th week brings! End of he week Gelato Cookie D'ohpe is 25cm, Purple Punch is 20cm😇

I cut them down the night before the open houses started. The White Widow looks really good. I put them in darkness for 72 hrs, then cut and hung the whole plant, then wet trimmed hung for 18 hrs/day and put in paper bags for about 6 hrs/day for 4 days with a fan oscillating close by. Then in bags for one day, now they've been dry trimmed and put in jars. 50g for the White Widow and it looks great. I can't wait to smoke some.

Greetings, fellow cultivators! Week 9 with our illustrious Big Cheese Auto is like witnessing a botanical sprint to the finish line, and the excitement is hitting a fever pitch. A massive shoutout to Seeds Mafia for the genetics that keep our green queen in perpetual amazement. Our green sprinter is charging through her ninth week of flowering, and oh my, the acceleration is breathtaking! She's growing at an astonishing speed, embracing her full potential. The Autopot system remains the orchestrator, providing her with a nutrient symphony that propels her towards the grand finale. It's like the final act of a botanical masterpiece. In response to the swift growth, a tactical adjustment is in play. I've cut back on nitrogen (P-Boost) and increased potassium (K-Boost). Picture it like fine-tuning a racing car for the last lap. Nitrogen, essential for vegetative growth, takes a backseat as potassium takes the wheel. Why? Because potassium is a key player in the flowering game, boosting bud development, enhancing taste, and improving overall quality. It's like switching gears for a turbocharged bloom. The trichomes are stealing the show! Their numbers are skyrocketing, covering every inch of our Big Cheese Auto like a blanket of shimmering diamonds. It's like a botanical galaxy forming right before our eyes. The visual spectacle is not just mesmerizing; it's a testament to the plant's potency and readiness for harvest. Ah, the unmistakable scent of cheese is now an aromatic symphony that fills the air. Each day, it becomes more robust, like a crescendo building up to the grand finale. The olfactory journey is now at its peak, promising a flavor profile that will linger in the memory. Our TDS remains robust at 390, and the pH orchestrates a harmonious melody at 6.0. The Autopot and the nutrient adjustments are now conducting a final symphony, ensuring every element harmonizes for the best possible finish. The final grooming session is in progress. The leaf-bending ballet continues, creating an even canopy that bathes in the natural light. Defoliation is like the last-minute touch-ups before the grand performance. It's like preparing for the curtain call of this extraordinary botanical journey. A colossal thank you to Seeds Mafia, Aptus Holland, Grow Diaries, and the phenomenal community. Your support has been the guiding melody of this green odyssey. As we approach the climax of Week 9, the excitement is tangible. Our Big Cheese Auto is not just growing; she's hurtling towards a botanical crescendo. I can't wait to witness the final act of this sprint to greatness. Let's continue to cultivate greatness together! Genetics -Seeds Mafia Big Cheese Automatic Light - LUMATEK ZEUS 465 COMPACT PRO

4/28 MONDAY 330am.... Looking great. All plants growing in an almost perfect square 4/29 3am looking good 5/1 4am Doing great!!!! Did you know that NOT burning your plants makes them grow better???...boring. I better add TONS of supplements. 5/2 12am 8ml Con. bloom. a little left over Grow nutes. 430 am 7Z is strong enough to trim off bottom buds. I usually leave those as early samples not this time. Concentrate all power to 4 solid easy to trim, dry and store. They are ALL STRONG.....WOW the flowers are FAST they really live up to the name and they JUST started they are going to be great if I dont burn them!!!! Great luck with them all!!!!!! 2 pm. Defoliation and bud trimming worked great. 7Z has3 colas that are VERY big and one that is just ok. Im going to think about this for a day or so, BUT I MIGHT chop to a 3 cola grow, get rid of the smaller one and see if that will bring THAT potential energy to the remaining strong colas?????🚨

Both plants doing good. 45 and 51 cm tall. No purple color yet, that's the only thing that worries me. I'm trying defoliation on the tallest plant.

Hello my friend, Plant is ending, I've checked a bit in late the trychromes, as we can see on the movie plant is almost ready to harvest, But I'm just flushing few days, I'm in late, so I'll check trychromes all the days, and I'll try to wait one week to harvest, I like harvest when 75/25 milky/amber. Next week, will be the harvest 😃😃. See you next week for the result, Have a good week

Day 72 - 07/01/20 This one was the only survivor of my 4 x RQS diary. my blueberry auto, jack herer auto and GG auto didnt sprout but the diesel did and here is her harvest! I added some nice photos of the plant and the yield was 325g wet weight. Should be over an ounce once its dried. Update - Dry weight was 30g although much of the bud is small :) Ive been curing for a few days and its insane how the flavour and burn changes throughout curing :) Update - Day 78 - 13/01/20 The sweet diesel smell and taste is coming through. buds are becoming more and more enjoyable to smoke as days go by. :) il post a few pictures later tonight! Added the photos of some buds and a video so you can all have an opinion on how my buds turned out visually. let me know in the comments :) Il do a few more curing updates to let you know how the second week of curing goes! Day 86 - 21/01/20 I finally finished the NYCD after about 2 weeks of curing. It smokes fairly well and is definitely the best thing ive grown so far :) Buds developed quality and a sweet earthy diesel flavour/aroma over the 2 weeks of curing. one major improvement i would make is to source high quality soil as i really struggled to flush this properly. even still without lab quality conditions ive never felt so depression free since ive been taking this medicine regularly. to finish up i will say that I liked the NYCD diesel taste but i still preferred sour diesel. The plant grew to a reasonable height around 60cm and produced an ounce of average bud. and I might not have won any GD competitions, but im still a winner! :'D Lucky for us I just started an Sour Diesel Auto from fastbuds so you can check that out to see what i thought of it compared to this one :)

Hello, this week and the next ones will be peaceful. It's +-34 days of the girls' life. About 30 more days and we'll switch to flowering. The smell is delicious. I hope that the girls will also give me lush buds. Due to the use of new plant cultivation techniques, I have small concerns about growth, but I hope that my technique will work and I will base on it. (34 days of feminized seeds and the stem at the base has a circumference of 4.5 cm 😁. I should also start fertilization now, but it's already over. If I waited, I would have a problem with bending the stems. Best regards for all Smoke weed every day ✌️
