I almost stripped them naked kinda but I need to get more light to the lower bud sites otherwise they are pretty much popcorn. The Green Gelato is happily starting to produce flowers while the Lemon Cherrys are taking their time to stretch one of them is almost 130cm tall and that was the 1 that was the most behind in the early weeks ahhahaha. Date: 26.08.2024

Trimmed her up a bit so inner nods will receive some good light.

DAY 18 of Flowering 🌼🌸

Experiment explanation see week1 This week nothing special happened with my both living soil plants...only the flowers got a bit more fat...nothing else Got some water and compost tea...thats it

The tuber boost increased significantly from the 5th week onwards. It has become colder outside, but the climate in the tent has remained fairly constant. During the day around 25 degrees, at night around 19 degrees. In the meantime, beautiful head buds have formed which appear very compact and firm. The smell on the fingers is now also intense if you have to remove a few leaves for better light penetration. Watering is still done three times a week with compost tea, water and PK Bosster plus water alternately. If watering is necessary in between, then with normal water (~23°C). Soil temperature:~18°C The slightly younger London Pound Cake X Zoap can be clearly distinguished by its tuber structure and seems to be ready at the same time despite being 1.5 weeks younger. The three Mimosa X Orange Punch are partially peach colored and the Fat Freddy's are darker and partially purple colored. Flowering was given as 8-9 weeks, which I think is correct. But I think it's more like 9 weeks, as I want to let the plants mature properly. The leaves are now also turning purple in places and in general some parts are starting to 'leaf out'. As I have already said, the plants have generally grown too tall and maybe 12 is too many, which is particularly noticeable in the middle and lower part of the plants, as they are quite compact and quite light, which suggests that there is not enough light. As the plants are now concentrating almost exclusively on flower formation, I have again removed some leaves that are too large in the upper third to the middle to give the lower flowers better lighting. Overall, however, all the plants have developed really well and I'm already looking forward to the final result.

Introduced nutrients at quarter strength. Growth responded nicely.

I really don’t think I stressed these plants that much, temps were all within margins but still didn’t get the weed I was promised, gonna try the strain by RQS again in the future and hope for better results, it might be my inexperience.. nice to see the process with auto’s, 4 plants still reacted completely differently See ya next time ❤️

My gas tax plant is looking absolutely incredible right now. It's got these massive buds that are super dense and have this awesome dark color to the leaves. I'm so excited to see how it turns out when it's finally ready to be harvested. I've been checking the height, the thickness of the stem, and the density of the buds to get an idea of how much longer I have to wait. I think I might start flushing it soon. The past few weeks have been so beautiful, watching the plants grow and change. It's amazing how something so small and fragile can turn into something so strong and vibrant. Now that they're getting ready to bloom, it feels a little bittersweet. I'm so excited to see the finished product, but I'll definitely miss having them around while they're growing.

This plant has a solid stench of pure ripe lemons. So much aroma and color in every bud, purples, to dark green, to lime green, to solid frost. This one definitely a fun strain to watch grow and tend too for the last few months. She’s definitely a hungry girl, seemed to be the only strain out of the three that accepted and thrived with full feed nutrients. Would definitely recommend this Strain to someone For a nice uplifting day smoke, also seems to do me good for some pain and stress relief.

And we are done! Both plants have now been chopped after 48hours darkness. Now currently drying. I will post some close up harvest shots once bud is dry :)

Letzte Spülung, zum Wochenende oder kurz danach wird geerntet. Der Geruch der Zkittlez ist einfach genial, Fruchtig und Gassy. An der Hermi ist wirklich wenig Fleisch an den Buds, sie erinnert mich ein wenig an leichtes revegeging von der Struktur. Die nur getoppte Pflanze zeigt eindeutig die Besten Ergebnisse. Sie hat die dichtesten Trichome und erscheint im Vergleich silberner als die andeden Beiden. Es ist für mich klar, das dieser Strain nicht die beste Wahl für LST und Mainlining war. Wer jedoch Topped und ein wenig Training macht, wird sich über saftige, Harze Blüten freuen Die Topcolas werden jetzt gegen Ende übrigens fast zu schwer, ich werde sie stützen

Our beautiful girls have plant louses 😱 So yesterday we made a brew of garlic and sprinkeld all of the plants, also the ground of the growbox - after cleaning up everything. So we hope this works. Have anyone experience with the small green monsters? We would be grateful for some suggestions.

Making butter is not very hard just time consuming but I very much enjoy making it. If you want really good butter you gotta cook slow and for long time. I ground 39 grams of my Granddaddy Purple and Purple Kush with 8oz (227 grams) butter. I decarbed the ground bud at 220 f for 40 minutes. While the bud is in the oven I melt the butter slowly with 1 cup of water. When butter is melted and the oven timer finishes add bud to butter and simmer for at least 8 hours, I did it for 12 hours. Never let boil! Add 1/4 cup water every 1-2 hours. After I will lay cheese cloth over plastic container and strain and squeeze all the goodness out. The leave in fridge over night, I squeeze the sides and drain excess water from below and butter is all ready. Thanks for checking out my butter recipe. Good luck stay safe happy growing cheers!!!!!

Due to winter and bad isolation in the house I struggle to keep it around 18 C at night and 22 during the day. Not ideal for this stage but I can't do much more for now. NCH is described by Memphisto as "rampant seedlings stage" I would confirm that. Her side branches grew 2cm/1inch today... I think she is waking up

~ AirCube Active Oxygen Ebb/Flow System sponsored by GrowAce, featuring Strawberry Gorilla Auto by FastBuds ~ Well guy's and gal's here we go again on another exciting Autoflower run together! This time will be different as I will be doing a 'Hydroponic' run utilizing the AirCube Active Oxygen Ebb/Flow System by GrowAce, who were kind enough to sponsor me for this run, so it should be interesting to see what results I get and have some fun along the way! •Let me first tell you about this 6 Pot Ebb/Flow system from GrowAce: "The AirCube system is the one and only Ebb & Flow grow system on the market that combines the benefits of air pruning with a fully automated Ebb+Flow system! With the AirCube's proprietary fabric pot in bucket design, this system is guaranteed to outgrow any other Ebb + Flow system on the market. The results speak for themselves- grow MASSIVE roots that result in MASSIVE fruits! Air Pruning- Air Pruning only happens with fabric pots. As the roots reach the fabric walls of the pot, they penetrate and grow into the breathable fabric. Once penetrated, the roots are exposed to air, which causes the tips of the root to dehydrate and naturally prune themselves. This natural pruning process forces the roots to grow tons of lateral fibrous feeder roots. This results in a plant that utilizes the entire root zone and fills the entire pot with tons of roots. These fibrous feeder roots are incredibly effective in uptaking water and nutrients, resulting in a plant that grows healthier and more vigorously! Oxygen Benefits- Without oxygen, nutrient absorption cannot occur. On a molecular level, oxygen is needed to transmit nutrients across the cell walls and into the roots of a plant. With the AirCube's proprietary bottom lifted draining design, the system actively draws all of the water out of the bucket pulls vital oxygen into the root zone. Maximum Versatility with Any Grow Medium: The AirCube System is the only system on the market that allows you to use any growing medium you like. Use coco coir, soil, peat moss, perlite, vermiculite, hydroton, rockwool or any other medium you wish! This system is the most versatile Ebb and Flow bucket system in today's hydroponics industry. Temperature Control- with the fabric pots constructed with highly porous polypropylene fabric, heat dissipates easily and effectively. Unlike standard plastic pots, heat isn't trapped in the root zone. Heat in standard plastic containers can reach temperatures of up to 125 degrees. When this type of heat is trapped and unable to escape, it can damage your plant's health and limit the potential of your harvest. Growing in the AirCube System, plant roots grow cooler, healthier, and more vigorous. Largest Pots in its Class- this system features 5 Gallon grow buckets, the largest pot size of any other ebb and flow hydroponic system in the market. Modular and Expandable- start with 6 grow buckets and expand up to 36 grow buckets with the optional 105 gallons PopTank reservoir!" For my medium and nutrients I decided to also switch things up from my regular Organic runs, going with Plagron Nutrients and Root Royale 70/30 Coco/Perlite. When filling the fabric pots with medium, I first added just under a gallon of horticulture perlite from Nor-Cal as a base layer to ensure good drainage and then filled the remainder with the Root Royale. •Now for one of my favorites, and award winning strain from my friends at FastBuds... Strawberry Gorilla Auto: I'll be running Strawberry Gorilla Autoflower which is a 55/45 Sativa/Indica Hybrid. "ATTENTION ALL! Due to our continuous efforts in evolving our breeding process, we are proud to confirm that our Strawberry Gorilla Auto has now become one of the most potent autoflowers in the world! Paving the way to our recent success where she ranked on top & brought home the gold at the very first American Autoflower Cup in California. Moreover, she proved that not only modern autoflowers can compete with photoperiods, but they can even beat them in their field. At the most recent edition of the Farmer’s Cup and competing against various photoperiodic strains, Strawberry Gorilla Auto took home the title of 'Highest Combined Terpenes' in the highly sought-after 'Home Grow Hash' category, with an impressive 97.163 mg/g total terpene content! Our exceptional genetic selection's crowning Strawberry Gorilla Auto strain is a spectacular hybrid known for producing yields of up to 600 gr/m2 in 70 days. This is a very manageable grow that can reach heights of up to 150 cm - due to its magnitude we recommend it for more experienced growers, as a huge plant may be a little overwhelming for first-timers. This show stopping sativa heavy hybrid is perfect as an all day smoke, producing a taste bud tingling, pungent berry and diesel terpene-rich flavor combo that leaves you with a grin from ear to ear, a perfect choice for those looking for a day-and-night autoflower!

Today, I started off this week with a drain/clean of the AirCube reservoir, after which I filled it with 80L of well water and added in the Plagron Nutrients (Green Sensation first, then 'A' & 'B' base nutrients, finally the Royal Rush). After the nutrients were added and the EC checked ( it's 2.0), I ph'd the solution to 5.7 @ 68℉. 12/22- I'm continuing with six feeds per day @ 900+/-ppm's, the HLG 650R is at 100% power 28" above canopy and they are getting 4 hours of additional UV during the middle of the light cycle. Tent temp's are running 68-75℉ at a RH of 40-45% and co2 levels are running 650-900ppm. 12/24- The #1 and #2 plants continue to be the better looking of the bunch, with the #2 being the 'one'. The #3 plant continues her struggle but has a generous coating of trichomes covering her flowers! 12/25- ~🎄MERRY CHRISTMAS!🎄~ 12/26- Seven weeks of flower and only a couple more to go! I'll be starting to flush these ladies in the coming week and they should all be beginning to fade soon! Hope to see you next week! Growers Love!💚 💚 Thank you for checking out my passion in life! Please visit as often as you wish and I hope you enjoy this journey as much as I know I will! Grow what you love, Love what you grow!💚

The beauty of the fade

All cherry lime creams remain strong with just 1 trap keeper left. Very good looking plants and all have been topped. Still waiting on sex but we should know soon.

all purple lemonades #1 run Plants exploded under the 400watt hps check back in a week all plants are just over 10inch tall/plants fed 17june proper pH 6.5 hopefully spring back after stunted and heat stressed

So here we go, our first grow under indoor conditions using a DWC (Deep Water Culture) 8xBucket system.But wait ...theres more!! We will now also be showing you guys a traditional South African Sun Outdoor Grow using a self made 3 Tyre flower pot which takes i access of about 75ltrs of Soil (19.8 gallons) during our peak season which starts in September 2021 and Lasts till January 2022. Did also try to Germinate Barneys Farm "Auto Tangerine Dream" but had all three seeds fail their germination period so we have had them replaced with Divine Seeds "Auto Amnesia" which we will be featuring in our next Grow.
