These are clones that I managed to take from my summer garden that became a disaster due to a heat wave that we had breaking 100 year records. I expect everything to be 48” in height at maturity.

Rain finally came

Plants are looking amazing! Zero watering issues this run. Monitoring plants daily for any ambering of trichomes. Began flushing plants with straight pH water @ 6.5. Ran 5 gallons water thru each 5 gallon plant container to strip away nutrients from growing medium to allow plants to use any existing nutrients stored. According to flowering time from breeder, these autos should be at harvest time nearing 75 days, currently on day 70. there are slight ambering of trichomes beginning on bud matter, currently close to 5% amber. Will flush plants 1 more time with pH water to ensure good flush prior to entering dark period for 48 hrs. Currently these plants are the stickiest and most coated plants I have grown to date. Very pleased with genetics!! Terp profiles of kiwi, melon and pine all exhausting from these fat azz nugz!! Entering final week of grow. At this point, patience is key, and a good proper slow dry is in order following dark period. 6/14 All 5 plants moved to dark room for 48 hrs to boost trichome production final hrs 6/16 Removed plants from dark room and hung up in dry tent. De-foliated fan leaves prior to hanging to dry.

Die Woche 4 der Blüte ist rum und die Ladys duften einfach hervorragend💚 allen vorraus die GorillaZkittlez, wahrscheinlich auch die, die zuerst fertig sein wird. Gefolgt von der StrawberryBanana, die auch schon schöne Buds entwickelt. Die "letzte" im Bunde ist die GorillaAuto, allerdings sieht sie so aus als würde bei ihr am Ende am meisten bei rumkommen. Bei der StrawberryBanana musste ich mittlerweile zwei Triebe entfernen auf denen Mehltau zu sehen war. Sie ist auf jeden Fall die empfindlichste von allen. Blätter waren bisher nur wenige befallen. Die wurden aber auch direkt entfernt. Ich bin mittlerweile über die gesunden Teile der Triebe und den Blättern mit Neemöl rüber und hab dabei so gut es ging die Knospen verdeckt. Bisher gab es keine neuen Anzeichen von Mehltau. Die StrawberryBanana braucht also etwas mehr Aufmerksamkeit. Die GorillaZkittlez kommt sehr gut mit milden und feuchten Tagen zurecht und entwickelt sich sehr schnell. Ich denke das sie in ca 2 Wochen bereit zu Ernte sein könnte. Sie riecht auf jeden Fall schon zauberhaft. Zu große Fanleaves und Blätter die Triebspitzen verdeckt haben werden bei allen Ladys regelmäßig entfernt. Ein minimales Lollipopping haben die Ladys auch bekommen. Düngen/Gießen: Tag 43/22F gab es zum Wasser nur 2ml/L StickyFingers und 1ml/L PowerBuds zum Wasser und etwas ph- um auf einen ph-Wert von 6.7 zu kommen. ________________________ Durch immer wieder mal Regen und recht mäßigen Tagestemperaturen von 18-22°C musste recht wenig gegessen werden. Ich hebe bei allen Ladys die Töpfe an und entscheide beim Gießen wieviel jede Pflanze braucht. Tag 47/26F war recht warm und alle Ladys brauchten wieder ordentlich zu trinken. Hier gab es zusätzlich auf 5L Wasser: 1ml GreenSensation, 4ml PowerBuds, 3ml PureZym von Plagron, 4ml BioBloom von BioBizz als klein BloomBooster und 10ml StickyFingers von XpertNutrients. Tag48/27F gab es durch langsam wärmere Temperaturen wieder etwas zu trinken. Diesmal gab es auf 5L Gießlösung 4g BioEnhancer von GreenHouseFeeding, 4ml PowerBuds von Plagron. ____________________________ Möge uns die kommende Woche mit viel Sonnenschein begleiten💚🍀

Eine sehr sehr schöne Pflanze ist es doch am Ende geworden

Usamos la red de scrog

Week 1 of the latest cycle and starting out with some new hardware and an expanded grow print👍. We’re running 4 autos via a recirculating Dutch bucket system. First time on a dutchy so it’s gonna be interesting to see how it stacks up against DWC. I’ll give a full rundown on the system I’ve cobbled together on the next update. So far - all seedlings have germ’d without issue using the standard p-towel method. Why more people don’t use this method on GD is beyond me. It’s so reliable that some breeders even warranty your seeds if you use this method and more than 1 seed fails to crack. We’ve got little sprouts coming up now and it’s all just waiting for those first couple fan leaves to come out and those roots to run to the bottom of each bucket. They’ve been placed in root riot cubes (essentially a version of rapid rooters) like most of our runs and I’d recommend their use with all autos. Time and stress on young autos is key so they need the absolute best start you can give them👌. End of week update - looks like we got 4 quality little seedlings here👍. Alls good other than battling a ph issue for most of the week. Keeps spiking overnight for no real reason - hopefully it’ll even out and isn’t the early sign of a major problem🤞. Background The strain line up on this grow is look’n quite saucy 😈. We’ve got 2 FB strains this time around - Gorilla Cookies (seems we always have some GSC cross in the works). Mainly because the colours look stellar and remind me of a sugar breathe we did last year that was 🔥. The other FB is their original Cheese strain... because we already smoked all our cheese... and we really like our cheese...😉. Emerald triangle was kind enough to include a freebie of Lemon Haze. Wasn’t really big on the list but we haven’t done a haze strain to write home about yet so worth a go👍. The last is a Cherry auto from Bomb seeds that we’ve been trying to get to for months. Let’s just hope that she’s not a dud like the last bean. The new digs for this run are courtesy MarsHydro👊. Their 2x4 single grow tent, paired with a shiny new 240w QB courtesy ViparSpectra. These folks were kind enough to discuss a collaboration and as a result, here we are to test out the gear with an inaugural run of autos. Each week, we’ll try to expand on some of the benefits of each, as well as any limiting factors or considerations that need attention when pondering purchase. Already I can say that both are high quality products in terms of overall craftsmanship. MarsHydro 2x4 Grow Tent: Excellent construction in terms of durability. Reinforced stitching on the zippers and corners ensures zero tearing. Conveniently placed screen vents and intake/exhaust ports. The ceiling exhaust port only exists on the right side. Perfect for me but not great if you’re running exhaust from the top on the left side (left side wall port makes up for this however). The aluminum frame is rigid enough to support the weight of the lights and accessories. Once you have some weight in the tent, she’s go’n nowhere and you can assemble and break it down in record time if moving or stashing the grow op. Only limiting factors I’ve noticed is that temp. Control will be an issue for a tent. It just doesn’t have the same insulating ability as a wood cabinet or other permanent enclosed space. No worries, this is offset by a small desktop heater and keeps the environment exactly where desired. The other issue was a production problem - the ceiling vent was accidentally stitched into the corner seams on the assembly line. Again, no real issue - just pulled it out with no damage or fraying to the tent or port👍.

Closest comparable to it that I’ve seen would be spiderfarmers line of qbs. They feature the same top-o-the-line components and roughly similar spectrums. Where VS takes the advantage is in the convenience of the dimmer nob which is easily accessible and works great at 50% with no strobing👍. The heat sink is also larger which contributes to lower temps. That’s not a good thing in my case but beneficial for most folks. I can already say that this will be a great fixture through all stages of growth. Where I know this light will excel will be in the veg. Stage for sure. Dimming function gives seedlings a much better chance of success with the ability to use lower lighting levels early on and the coverage area on a 240w is great. The average grower will find this panel suitable and fitting to their needs in a 2x4 grow space although I’d suggest 2 units if going any larger than that. The total output in this space equates to about 30w/sq.ft. Which is a decent amount of coverage based on power vs. Growprint. Ideal for veg. Certainly but, in flower - I tend to run closer to 50-60w/sq.ft to achieve higher yields. Again, similar fixtures have performed admirably in the past and while this wouldn’t be considered an “entry-level” fixture, I’d recommend that any grower new to the game not skimp on lighting and start with one of these. The price points are a great value for quality LED tech. These days, so there’s little reason to even consider a lesser fixture👍. I have no detail on limiting factors for this light as yet but have heard that stock branded fixtures don’t necessarily incorporate enough red diodes. I’ve seen no issue myself but confess - I’m no lighting guru.

Early flowering has started!

Día 44 (15/07) Wow! No hay shock de trasplante! 😍💥😁 Todas las ramas se han estirado hacia arriba tras el ajuste de LST y se están formando nuevos nodos rápidamente Esta combinación de nutrientes de Lurpe + substrato de PRO-MIX HP es una maravilla 😍 Día 45 (16/07) Ayer tuvimos ola de calor (37 ºC) y han aguantado muy bien! A última hora de la tarde (cuando ya no había sol directo) les apliqué H2O en spray foliarmente para refrescar los estomas Hoy parece que vuelven las temperaturas estándar para esta época del año: 29 - 30 ºC en las horas centrales del día Riego con 1 litro de H20 pH 6,5 Día 46 (17/07) Pequeños ajustes de LST Hay algunas ramas inferiores que no se han formado / estirado mucho Lo más probable es que haga una buena limpieza este domingo, 7 días después del trasplante, para dejar solo los brotes por encima del 4º nudo Día 47 (18/07) Riego con 0,5 litro de H20 pH 6,5 Este domingo (día 50) haré limpieza de partes bajas y tal vez también de nuevo topping en las 4-6 ramas principales 😁 Día 48 (19/07) Día de muchísimo calor con 37 ºC. A ver como lo llevan! Riego con 0,5 litro de H20 pH 6,5 Día 49 (20/07) Para ayudarles a llevar mejor el calor de las horas centrales del día, coloca una malla de sombreo (70%) sobre el invernadero Lo cierto es que se nota que baja mucho la temperatura debajo de la malla! Van a estar más fresquitas! 😍 Riego con 0,5 litro de H20 pH 6,5 Día 50 (21/07) Training session! Hago limpieza del tercio inferior de la planta, de todas las ramas y nudos que no superan la línea del dosel marcada por el 4º nudo (1er topping) También hago topping (2º) a todas las ramas principales La idea es tener 12 ó 14 colas principales para que no se hagan muy altas De paso saco unos cuantos clones de las ramas inferiores eliminadas 😁💥 Para superar el estrés, hago las siguientes aplicaciones y riego: - Riego con 1 Litro de Té Vegetativo de Lurpe Solutions. Preparación: 24 horas con bomba de aire (oxigenación) con ingredientes: Green Sunrise 8 ml/L + Insect Frass 16 ml/L + Hummus Lombriz 8 ml/L + Melaza 1 ml/L + Kelp Hidrolizado 0,25 g/L - Aplicación foliar Kelp hidrolizado de Lurpe Solutions a 0,25 ml/l 💦Nutrients by Lurpe Solutions - www.lurpenaturalsolutions.com 🌱Substrate PRO-MIX HP BACILLUS + MYCORRHIZAE - www.pthorticulture.com/en/products/pro-mix-hp-biostimulant-plus-mycorrhizae

Combined the very last week and harvest into one entry. Plants did ok other then the yellow plant or plant #3 gong hemi and pollinating the tent. I would try out their genetics again as they look descent, if I hit another hemri though I think that would be it for them. I reach out to them and asked if this was normal and got no reply. I will check the tent once its clean and free of stuff for light leaks aorund where plant #3 was to confirm it was not my environment. Plant #1 Red took it the worst. it had issues from mid flower but did not finish strong and was hurting a bit. Nice smell over all. Will be transforming all this into bubble hash with a machine I got and some bubble bags. Don't know when I'll do this but that's the plan. God about 10oz of buds 293.5g/10.48oz It was not 100% dry yet but popped it into the freezer to keep it fresh. Big shoutout to Medic Grow for sponsoring the lighting in my tent, They have provided me with 2x Mini Sun 2's in the 240w configuration, They use the v1 growing spectrum that is a all purpose seed to harvest spectrum so their is no hassle of switching it mid grow.

Moin liebe Growgemeinschaft! Die dritte Woche beginnt. Leider musste ich aufgrund von einigen Umständen die kleinen auf Urlaub schicken 😉. In ca zwei Wochen sollten sie aber wieder Zuhause sein denn ist auch etwas mehr Platz für die kleinen da. Soweit entwickeln sie sich normal sind etwas gespargelt aber das ist noch in Ordnung für die Umstände. Gegossen werden sie mit angepasstem Wasser auf PH 6. Werde die Milkyways die Tage in 11l Schuhe stecken, sollte noch nicht so schlimm sein da sie ja noch nicht den topf voll gewurzelt haben.

Only footage I have of the ladies during this flowering time. Enjoy the rest of my garden I guess.

Week Five and Flowering has begun Will fold in Bio-Bloom and replace Fix Mix with Bio-grow , may add some Phos via top dressing as well. Yellowing continues to recede just not fast enough for my comfort. Brandy has obviously stunted considerably and Maggie at least somewhat. Could not expect differently Moving to Flowering tent soon as its clear, couple of days at most 10/28 UPDATE Going to play on a couple of hunches at next watering. Need to get a TDS meter soon, got a feeling it would help. Ever since we went to BioBizz we have experienced a variety of oddness in the vein of this grow. Now long term since we are switching to coco and Flora nuet line that is solved but short term I am switching to Dr. Earth Flower Girl for remainder of grow. Every feeding/watering will be @6.5 PH to 20% run off and checking PH on that. Of course this will be modified based on results. Schedule is a single top dressing at 4 tbs (roughly 2 tsp per gal of soil) covering with 1/2 inch min of coco and 50% perlite as a mulch. Layla must go on her own feeding schedule as she is just so much bigger and drinking well. Will do the feed when moving to Flowering tent in a day or so as that will be about time to water. She looks good if a little darker green than I like. Were it only Layla I might not suspect anything... meh Here is where Grow Diaries saved the day , by going back and looking at past grows we came to suspect the nuet change although initially results were great problems always seemed to follow. In my reaction to that, not knowing, I may have made other mistakes, likely in fact. Its a solid organic and may head off some issues. Simplify As for Bandy and Maggie, still have that bottle of H2O2 on the shelf, need to see some serious improvement real soon. Getting to be now or never Later: Talked to the owner of a hydroponics store who is also a long time grower that knows these nuet lines cold. His take is that it is absolutely the Bio-Bizz nuets, seems they are hard to run alone as they have holes in their make up which will cause mystery deficiencies in some plants and soil mixes. That really pisses me off LoL , my fault though just glad I have partial explanation. Good thing is he was able to show me the CocoTek Grow and Bloom lines and that is going to be the choice, two part feed without complications. Simplify heheh 10/29 Confirmed the dye reading of pot PH on all three by another method. Took a handful sized soil sample from as deep as I could of each pot and placed into a cup, soaked with 7.0 water let stand 15 minutes to stabilize, tested pour off, all at 6.7 so that is NOT the problem. Damn it This is the reasoning: Water goes into the pot at 6.4-6.5 takes the entire system to that level temporarily, it then begins bringing it up to 6.7-6.8ish and that friends covers the entire range of nuet take-up in soil. Going to cheat a bit high and make it 6.5 solid as its good on acid content. Least thats how I see it, back to basics so may as well. Top dressing Layla today with Flower Girl, others follow when pots dry out a bit more. Moved to Flowering Tent , something came up and they still have not been feed will try and do it this afternoon. 10/30 Fed Recharge 0.5 tsp - Kangaroots 5ml - CalMag 5ml - PH 6.5 for one gallon over 4 tbs top dressing Dr. Earth Flower Girl and one inch of mulch (50% coco/perlite) 11/1 Defoliated Layla (about 3%) so the center of the plant gets good light, did a little training on Brandy to keep things dry, Maggie... man just letting it grow I am just flabbergasted at this yellow leaf thing Pics at watering tomorrow 11/2 No water today, they dont need it.

Hi all, sorry for the delay, all continues to go very well, she is handling the nutrients very well wit only a very little tip burn. I increased the light a little bit, as I felt that some of the main colas on the side didn't get enough light. Next week I will probably be able to show the little veg-box I built, since the cuttings are slowly outgrowing their current home.

Finally the stretched stopped. Cut about 10 tops bent about 20 with 90s. Still right in the lights. They are looking very happy even though they are so close to the light ( thanks to high c02 levels most likely.) Another week or 2 before I cut the temps and co2 levels down. Been trimming all leaves below light line. Stinky and brutally sticky I feel like Clark griswold with pine sap when ever I am bending the tops and such.. I think even with them being in the lights I will still get a few pounds of premium flower to smoke :)

She's growing well lately. Buds are getting dense, a nice covering of trichomes. Pistils are still changing though so another week or two to go I think. The other two got harvested during the week so she has a little bit more room to spread out now. 👍

This is day 70 since germination she get ph water 6.5 since end of week 9 till the end of her life

9/11 Wed. 12 am Raised lights and the watts. NYC is tall now even after topping. Looking really nice. 5 am lights up to 88W didn't raise the light any higher. 330 pm Got some nice shots of NYC, She is getting tall so I may top her twice and keep the bottom 4 colas, not sure yet. 9/12 12 am good. 2 am light up to 93W and raised 3 clicks. 93 at 8 to 14 inches for the shorter plants should be enough power. 2pm. Spent 6 hours putting in extra dirt and perlite and cut NYC in half!!! She's too tall for this grown, but Im sure I can still do just great with 4 colas well trimmed!! 9/12 11 pm. They are doing good NYC is growing good after 2nd topping. GOAT is doing great. 9/13 12am Cutting NYC in half yesterday worked!!!! She's doing great. GOAT is great too 9/13 12 am. Moved 3 plants that were small into their own tent. 2:30am They are doing better in the new tent with more space. 9/14 4 am.I used 1 gram of Maxibloom Powder and .6ml of purpinator yesterday will keep the mix for a few days 9/15 Looking good light up to 95. Got some nice pics of GOAT forming flowers, her leaves have a peach color the microscope pics are good. had to get a new one.
