D43. The start of a new week, and not much to report. ------------------------------ D46. The reservoir is finally just about empty after 17 days. I'll top water with compost tea and sprouted seed tea tomorrow before filling the reservoir again in a couple of days. ------------------------------ D49. We're at the end of the third week of flower, and things are on autopilot. I'm not completely happy with the soil I'm testing as I'm seeing clawed and burnt leaf tips. Maybe I'm being picky, as it's relatively minor, and the plant looks happy overall, but I have never seen this growing in my own soil mixes. I filled up the reservoir with 7 liters of water @ pH 6.0. I adjusted the pH to be on the lower end since it has a tendency to creep up over time. ------------------------------

Hey! ✋ Two weeks of the 12/12 light schedule have passed, the plants don’t even think about blooming. This is already a long time, although not my record (19 days). The bushes are very dense, I will do defoliation after the start of flowering. We still have to wait, hopefully no more than a couple of days. Thank you for stopping by, and be healthy! 🙏 To be continued... 😶

Aug 22 - plant fed yesterday a.m., then got rained-on ALL NIGHT - “week 2 Flower”, end of the week will see a Defoliation of sorts. Plant was Schwazzed re: 70% removal of Fan Leaves on day 1 of Flower. Targeting day 20 (we’re at 15) 23rd - plant grew 6cm, basically over-nite!!! Wow 25th - Microbe Tea brewing for tomorrow - Pistils are appearing… 26th - rain overnite, plant is “still”Dry-side of Medium, breakfast time; 1 gal. Posted above. - !!! Cali Crasher finally exceeded expectations and has surpassed the One Metre tall mark. Measured from the orig height, of the original soil via green wire for LST poking through the side of Fabric pot. Its a beaUtiful plant *** tested the run-off from the Feed this morning, its been a while. Run-off = < 3000ppm, so the plant was flushed till ppm dropped below 1500. Yep, it took 5 gal of pH’d water. The Last gallon (5th one) included the bloom nutes, a 2nd time, due to the Flush. That final gallon equaled 1000ppm - next week sees a Large-leaf schwazze on 31st (20days since orig schwazze). Any key, medium-sized shadow-maker gets yanked as well. Still gonna call it a 70% schwazze 28th - last day of week 2 in Flower - Nutes for Breakfast 1gal - really happy this beast climbed over the Metre-mark this week

SHERBERT QUEEN AUTO / RQS WEEK #12 OVERALL WEEK #7 Flower This week she started to get some density to her buds she's got nice trichome coverage and a nice little aroma to her. Stay Growing!! Thank you for stopping by and taking a look it's much appreciated!! Thank you ROYAL QUEEN SEEDS!! SHERBERT QUEEN AUTO / RQS

Put a lot of love into this grow. She grew for 4 months from seeds to harvest. About 5 weeks and 56 days of flower. Overall great strain to grow and great site @growdiaries for giving the platform and help from other growers. I’ve learned so much about growing and especially about this strain.

Week 9! We're reaching the home stretch! I defoliated "J", heavily and super cropped her taller tops. She also is the only one to receive nutrients. The crop is still pretty hefty, so we'll water them 🌞 tomorrow. "J" is happy in her space and is content staying in Veg, indefinitely. I don't have the requirements to flip her into Flower and won't for quite some time, growing Photoperiods was not in the setup or budget. There is still no smell to speak of, except when you manipulate her, she gives off a citrus, pine aroma. This grow has been fairly easy going so far, no real issues to report. I'd like to thank 🙇‍♀️🏾 @WeedSeedsExpress and I look forward to growing their many different strains. Finally, let me apologize for the quality of my 📸 camera, or lack thereof. July 29, 2021, Thursday. I watered the crop thoroughly and rotated them. The girls (other than "J") are watered with pH'd tap water, that fluctuates between 6.2 & 6.4. July 30, 2021, Friday. Girls are chillin'. I'm really having a BLAST! I knew I was going to love cannabis cultivation, but this is something else. I've taken to it, like a 🦆 duck to water. I can't wait to see what more knowledge and experience will reveal. Anyone that's been on the fence about whether to grow or not, do it. Just go ahead and do it. Only thing I regret, is not being able to afford more 💡 lights and fans. Or if you want to grow vicariously, you can always sponsor me. July 31, 2021, Saturday. Everything is peachy. August 1, 2021, Sunday. I watered the girls today. I moved "J" into the "Veg Desk" and she seems to be adapting to her new environment quite nicely. Freeman's birthday is just days away! Freeman the person, not the plant. As I mentioned earlier in the diary, this grow has been in secret and is a surprise birthday present. I tell Freeman everything that happens in my life, so keeping this secret was a bit fun. I look forward to August 5, for the big reveal to Freeman! Stay tuned! August 2, 2021, Monday. Nothing to report. August 3, 2021, Tuesday. Watered the ladies thoroughly.

Day 23 Notes started some LST on lower branches I like to do small bits here and there Day 24 Notes Water with plane tap water and bio grow along with Monkey Nutrients Root Shoot 1.5lt tap water 1.7ml grow 4 drops root shoot Day 27 Notes I have notice some cal/mag deficiency so will be feeding with bio grow and bio bizz cal/mag next feed which I think should be tomorrow Day 28 Note Fed with bio grow and bio bizz cal/mag

Keep an eye on EC and ph 👍 Taking a bit of a gamble and using my homemade DWC pots , what the worst that could happen ? #Friday13th

1 week on 12/12 now, no white pistils yet.

The outdoors are going great at the moment other than a few yellowing lower leaves. I corrected with a nitrogen booster (mainly blood and bone meal I think) and also hit them with some rock phosphate, manure, compost, earth worm castings, bio-char, and epsom salts for a magnesium kick, the yellowing should fade in the next week and I’m thinking they’ll have everything they need for flower. I mixed all that, top dressed the ground around the bottom of the pots (they’re well and truly rooted in the ground) and topped up the pots with the rest. Looking forward to a good yield out there it has been raining lately, humidity is up but I’m sure the week of sunshine coming up will correct any issues trouble is they’ve gotten so think at the top it’s hard to splay everything out in an optimal way, I’m slowly working through the branches bringing heads down and airing the more bushy sections out. Other than that I’m a little concerned about insects I’m seeing lots of fungus gnats but i have been using eco-neem so I’ll continue to foliar spray thoroughly, soil drench and hope for the best 🤞🏽

She's getting close, we gave he last splash of bloom earlier in the week, water only from here on out :)

So I'm seeing some yellow tips, also on the new growth and I'm a little surprised because I'm not feeding that much tbh...at least I think I'm not.... reading up a bit, not sure if its nute burn or something else... got some cal-mag anyway , seeing i'll need it soon.. Tthe Northern Lights is going up like crazy! it has a completely different 'build' to it, much wider and distances then the more compact Diesel. Held off on the feeding, just distilled water ...but maybe 'll just switch to tap water, leaving it outside for a night or two...no more root booster....seems a little redundant.

Should start filling out this week🙏 going into week8? I think, I have been having to water more frequently, good sign! Let the BUDSWEL SWELL! My Buddy used his Pixel 2 for pics hopeing y'all like them. Jan 24 2018 My girls were under a 150watt cfl and an additional 80watt for past 3 days my Bloom channel died on my ( just repaired LED) and sent it back . Today I received a brand new LED to replace old one. Great customer service and the girl's look no worse off . new led running 100% grow and bloom channels.

Seventh week of flowering started. I've changed the water into the pots and the nutrients ratio (more bloom and micro, less grow). The fan is turned three hours on, one off. Inkbird parameters are unchanged (20° -3° H +2°C). Plants are healthy and started to be bushy and taller. Light power @ 100%. Extractor @ 100%. D42: changed the water into the pots. Added 15 ml grow, 30ml micro and 40ml bloom. pH@6 EC 1.5 D44: added 1.5 liters of water to each pot. The plants are growing a lot, much more than I expected. Hydroponics is getting me astonished D46: added 2 liters of water to each pot.

Pistols are Starting To Show And she Is Very Big and Beautiful And I'm Definitely Getting her Right with the Feeding Cause She Ain't Showing Any Deficiency's I Wish My Cloning Process Worked Sadly Both Clones Died But It was My First time

ILGM Girl Scout Cookies Extreme autoflower has grown great under the Viparspectra P4000 light. She is in heavy bulking now, and I am juicing her for as much as she will produce. She did take longer then most autoflowers to start blooming, but we got there, and going great now. Has a nice aroma going as well. With some frost buds stacking up. Figuring about 3 to 4 weeks till harvest depending how long she wants to grow. Thanks again Viparspectra, and I Love Growing Marijuana. 🤜🤛🌱 Thank you everyone in the grow diaries community. Lots of great folks around. 👍 A special thanks to the folks that contribute the likes, follows, comments, plus subscriptions on my YouTube channel. 🍻 Happy growing everyone 🌱 🌱🌱
