Another week on, minds still blown at how fast these plants grow and develop! 😂 started upping their watering amounts, and introducing some more nutrients, and my exhaust fan & carbon filter is currently being ready to be set up 😁😁 Flowering starting to show more and more daily, excited ive made the half way mark 🙏

Flowering looks awesome on the ChemDog! Lots of bud sites and they're growing at a respectable rate. ATF's are running 3 plants in 3 diff stages- one's a couple weeks into flower, one's just starting,and one's still the holdout. Meanwhile, I've got flowering on the Night Nurse and one of the Viper Cookies. The rest are close but I can't say for sure they've transitioned. Weather's getting into a hot and humid phase, gotta watch that ChemDog. Think it's got a decent structure for ventilation but I've read horror stories on how the Dog loves mold. Further training of the branches has been fruitful, I'm seeing a lot more topside bud sites than usual. I'm working on irrigation-- I set up a 30 gal container and it works for drip, but without a pipe system it's still one at a time, although I have to admit it's worth it to save my back. Plus, I have to have a supply ready for use in case my buddy needs to fill in for me and water the ladies. Been checking the cameras regularly ( I have them all throughout the property, game cameras with IR flash), and to date haven't seen anything that would constitute a threat. Just some curious raccoons and one really ugly opossum. Even the skunks don't bother them this year, which is nice but a little strange considering they dig in them every year. It's really just the animals I'm watching for, people aren't as much of a concern. Mostly because I don't know any. Aside from that, I sleep with my head feet away from my babies, so somebody would have to have big brass ones to even try. Yes, I know, a little overprotective. Fingers crossed it'll be one hell of a harvest (by my standards). 8/11 Update: Been lucky still with the weather, but it's turning really humid. Fed the girls this morning, a mix of 1C molasses and 1/2C epsom salt in 20 gallons. Just a little supplement to the tiger bloom they've been feasting on. Speaking of the Tiger Bloom, I can't help but think I'd do just as well mixing my own nutrient solution, since the cost really adds up quick. For his year, however, it'll be fine. My watering gizmo is working well, just leaks a tiny bit and that's fine for the remainder of the year. Now that I have an idea of what works for me I can spend the off-season setting up something right. Had to thin out the Lamb's a bit, it wasn't getting anywhere near enough air flow. Also took a few on the ChemDog as I'm expecting mold/rot conditions for a while and she's prone. Shouldn't have much problem, wind blows almost constantly here, but you can never be too careful. Training is taking well, overall they look pretty good. Next year-- bigger grow bags, better soil, and much pickier seed choices. I think I may even abandon the idea of topping them in the future-- it just slows them down and you can get the same end results with training. Granted, my ladies are kinda sparse and ugly, but that's the learning curve. Next time around I think I have a pretty good idea of what to do and when to do it, based on what worked and didn't work this year. Another big thing is nutrient timing-- I def jumped the gun on flower power for a few of them and it just stunted them wicked-- shoulda continued veg food a couple weeks into flower even for the early bloomer, she'd be a monster.

Everything going well with this strain no problems and growth is very fast, they bounce back after any defoliation. Day 41 - Gave them a haircut today and a good Biosys tea feed till run of will leave now till start of next week Planning to add a drip irrigation feed system this week to make this a little easier. 🤞 Will update next Sunday now end of week 6 as will be busy adjusting and implementing the irrigation feed.

Hi everyone, Here's the update for this week.All of them are looking good.Among them,Gelato is the tallest.Gorilla Cookie is the strongest and Zkittlez is the smallest.Enjoy and Happy growing...✌️🇲🇲 BTW this week I changed my light to new Marshydro SP-6500 which is from my New Year with Marshydro winning award.I don't add any CO2 yet.So I think I can't run the light at full intensity.Now the light is at 25% intensity and at a height of 30inches.Max during the flowering stage would be 50% at 18~24inches.

Last week for her. She has pushed another e cm of buds on her tops since I added the xs2000. Look forward to doing a full grow cycle with this led panel as soon as we finish these up. No problems with this one. She smells great looks great. She will get a flush this week with clean fruits and then chop chop next Saturday. Thanks for looking. Grow well 🌿🌱🌼 Stay safe 😷😷

Added a Scrog net to try and get more light into the lower bud sites. AutoMazar is still looking droopy and her color is very weird, she’s also the shortest. Auto Ultimate is still the beast!! She’s building trichomes and Auto Daiquiri is super sticky and will be harvested first, she’s on all water from her on.

Week 9 started yesterday, Aug. 1. Gave them their final trim last night. Definitely 2-3 more weeks of veg. I'm still so pumped to have gotten this far and other than my clones, they are looking so good and healthy. I definitely have a good feeling. Happy Monday everyone and as always, happy growing ✌️🍀✌️ UPDATE: Aug. 3rd...going great! Happy growing everyone ✌️🍀✌️ UPDATE: Aug. 5th and still going great! They are getting super bushy. I'll have to trim some lower leaves on Banner but that's it. Banner is a little shorter than Sky but that's ok lightwise! I could only imagine how big they would be by now if I either went natural or just topped, lol. I'm thinking about 5'. Would have been great outdoors if I could trust people to stay in their own yards at night! Anyways, I'm super pumped for the flip, which is very soon 😎 Happy growing everyone ✌️🍀✌️

Hey now, this week was a little rough for the Cream Mandarine auto, but it was my fault. I went out of town for 6 days and by the time I got back this morning, the EC had risen way too high due to evaporation in my reservoirs, and some of her leaves had little brown spots from the EC being too high. I could even see the spots on my live feed, but nothing I could do until I got back as I was seeing Phish down south. I flushed her this morning with about 2 gallons of water which dropped the EC of the runoff way back down to about .8, so I will resume normal feeding and see what happens. Other than than that she seems to be stacking buds very nicely and is developing a very nice smell. I believe she has another week or two to stack before she starts ripening. Next time I go away I'm going to start with the EC about .3 lower to compensate for evaporation. Thanks for stopping by, I hope everyone has a great weekend, be safe and blaze on!

So I found some powdery mildew on some lower growth so I have moved this little lady outside as I don’t want her infecting my other greenhouse plants. I will stay on top of things with OMRI fungicide and have no doubt that I will get her to harvest as she appears to be getting close. She is really stacking on bud size now. I will be watching trics going forward now and can’t wait for harvest. 😎🍿🍻🌱

This little auto is really smelling nice these days. She is starting to fade out so she is in the final stretch now. I will be tracking the trics going forward now. 😎🍿🍻🌱

Average variety, not really suitable for outdoor growing. Little yield in good growing conditions, hardly any smell / taste and susceptible to mold. She would certainly do better indoors

Just on autopilot now, have only had to water once a week since transplanting to 7 gallon pots, but I expect that to ramp up soon as I crank the lights up to 100% on week 5 of flower. I was using the standard 12/12 but watched a video where Kevin Jodrey mentioned an 11/13 on/off cycle works out a little better for some strains. We're going to see what happens with that over the next two weeks and will likely finish it out on that cycle. I topdressed a little today with some supersoil and plan to incorporate molasses with my next watering just for a nice last boost for the next few weeks of flower before the fade. Thanks for reading!
