-----WEEK SUMMARY-----
(Following text was translated with tools and reviewed, sorry for mistakes, misspellings or nosense things)
As you can see I've done a defoliation this week. Yes, I have really gone over the top, I have removed many more leaves than I had, and the tails of the plants has not come to join at all due to the failed defoliation.
Being the first defoliation I do, I did not really know what I was doing and I went crazy. Now that it has been several weeks since I made this defoliation, I realize that I should not have removed the leaves from the nodes of the tails, because they have stopped growing and have not joined with their superior parts. Anyway, the plants are beautiful today and although they could be much better I feel very happy with them.
I know I've made 2 fatal mistakes in this grow
- The first has been the massive defoliation badly done, defoliation yes, but with head ... do not follow my example.
- The second failure that I see today, is that I did not leave enough growth time (18/6) after having made the last pruning and that has made the tails have been a length much less than what would have been desired, I think that 2 more weeks of growth would have been perfect.

-----SUMARIO SEMANAL-----
Como podéis ver esta semana he hecho una defoliación. Si, efectivamente me he pasado de listo, he quitado muchas más hojas de las que debía y las colas de las plantas no ha llegado a unirse del todo debido a la fallida defoliación.
Al ser la primera defoliación que realizo, no sabía muy bien que hacía y me lancé a lo loco. Ahora que han pasado varias semanas desde que realicé esta defoliación, me doy cuenta de que no debí de haber quitado las hojas de los nodos de las colas, pues estos han dejado de crecer y no se han unido con sus partes superioras. De todas maneras, las plantas están preciosas a día de hoy y aunque podrían estar mucho mejor me doy con un canto en los dientes.
Se que he cometido 2 errores gordos en este cultivo
- El primero ha sido la defoliación masiva mal realizada, defoliación si, pero con cabeza.... no sigáis mi ejemplo.
- El segundo fallo que yo veo a día de hoy, es que no dejé suficiente tiempo de crecimiento (18/6) después de haber realizado las últimas podas y eso ha hecho que las colas hayan quedado de una longitud muy inferior a la que hubiera deseado, creo que 2 semanas más de crecimiento hubiera sido perfecto.
-----CALENDARIO DE RIEGO-----

Acapulco, gold has gone absolutely crazy, and we have so many branches. I have lollipoped her this week, too.
She is still stretching, hopefully that's gonna end real soon, because we have no room left in the tent, and we're getting light burn.
I have been moving the plant around to maximise the light exposure and minimise the light stress and heat damage, she has been drinking a fair amount.
I'm just trying to get the fungus gnat population under control with some sticky traps.
Here is what I did this week.
ACAPULCO GOLD Top dress:
🧡 1/2L Canna Coco
🧡 1/3L Perlite
Amendments:
💚 1/4 Cup Diatomaceous Earth

💚 2 TBSP Ecothrive Life Cycle
💚 1 TBSP Ecothrive Charge
Top dressed 27.8.25.
27.8.25:
I watered with 6.5L of dechlorinated water PH'd to 5.8 with;

She's getting heavy. Buds are a bit too puffy for my taste. They feel hard and got plenty of mass but inside there are lots of tiny air pockets.

Day 106. Final stretch ! All jobs done !
I changed my mind about defoliation, was asked already by second person and will try to do my own RSO for them.
Normally i would call it a mistake, needed to lolitop them 20 cm up more, my lights are too weak for 10 such big plants, but in oil production case - its a win ! You should use all plant for production, not only buds, so ill give it a go.
Only water in reduced amounts is all my work left. Hope to push them two more weeks.
So FLUSH FLUSH FLUSH !!! as much as you can hope in soil ... ;)))
Happy Growing !

Here we are at week 8 of flower plants are getting cut down tomorrow at day 56! I would of liked to push them another week but I’m literally getting my neighbors knocking on the door telling me it’s the smell is too strong! But I’m hyped to smoke these strains the snowcandy is a keeper forsure I got a couple more phenos of each strain I’m going to run next round so that should be promising ! Definitely go grab some of robinhoodseeds strains they are always fire!

Day 82.
Its 81 day from seed touched soil ! If leaves would be healthier, i would run them at least one more week, but it is, what it is.
They spent 24 hours in darkness and now its Trim Jail !!! ;)))
Harvest Day !
Day 88. Tried bud from each, clearest weed straight from drying rack ! Only 3 feeds makes huge difference to harshness at the beggining. Still Queen is pure Tangie, can it be seed mistake ? ;)))
Day 89. Boy i am f@ckingly surprised !!! Heather - I love You, Your team, Your strains !!!! I still don't get how, but numbers are amazing, Thank You very much !!!!
Will update this diary as cure goes, but i feel so many nice words were unspoken, felt that FB will change my view about Autos - and they DID !!!
Amazing house !
Happy Growing !

Week 2 for the solo Afghani went smooth. Looked a little slow to develop her first proper set of leaves, but the root development should help speed up her progression. Still feeding off the slow release 444 and is now regularly drinking about 2oz of water every other day. I also spritz the bottom of the outer cup to keep moisture levels high for stretching roots. She's about 36" from the light. Hoping to get a little stretch to make training easier. Added a couple new pics to get the week caught up. Stay tuned, week 3 starts training.

Defoliated this week. Ladies are filling back in nicely.
Tons of bud sites. Very happy with this batch so far! Nutrients every watering this week. These girls will now get one watering of just ph water, then the next watering will be the last watering with nitrogen. After that, we kick the bloom phase into overdrive. They will get micro, bloom, and advanced big bud. Every watering, for the rest of their lives.
Grow-5ml
Micro- 5ml
Bloom- 5ml
Recharge once a week..
These Hubbabubbasmellascope plants are very nice plants.
Again, two very different phenos within the 5 plants.
Two, are Broad leafed, haleavy stalked, and beautiful. The other 3 are a bit strange. Very small leaves, very narrow leafed, and a touch smaller. Just totally different looking plants. But absolutely loaded with bud sites. Time will tell!

This lady grow with no issues she's not big in stature but she makes up for that with a plant that's as thick as a elephant and hopefully as strong! She produces trichome covered buds that have a distinct aroma to them! She's Easy to grow and doesn't get to tall if you need to grow in a smaller space! Additionally if your a medical grower she's a strain you might want to add to your garden of ladies!! Stay Growing!!!
Thank you for stopping by and taking a look it's much appreciated!!
I want to say thank you to SSSC for hosting the video contest!!! Growers appreciate 🙏 your growers support and putting on the contest for us to showcase your genetics!!!!

Seeing burned tips makes me feed it differently, 2 days with fulls set of nutrients, 2 days with Cannazym only.
I pruned them a bit more, not sure if it was a good idea but those little branches didn't develop a lot during this time.
On day 4 of the week, after HSO's comment on a weekly report, I've measured runoff and it was insane! 3k-5k ppm
Flushed them all so that runoff was around 800 ppm, and watered them with Cannazym only (PH around 6.1, EC 440 ppm).
Also moved them around a bit
Most likely the reason for conductivity going so high was that I removed the pots from platforms at some point and old runoff was probably soaking in.
