Daily updates coming...
Well I'm a bit upset last week I ended up dropping my ph meter in a tank of nutes I was mixing and by the time I got it out the meter was junk. I was planning on flushing the crystal but had to wait another week for the meter.
I suppose the good thing to take from this was I found out why I was having issues with my plants. When the new ph meter came in I went to check my run off and my nutes that I had all ready mixed up. It turns out that my meter i had been using this whole grow was off by about -2-2.5 so this whole time I had been feeding the plants at around 3ph smfh. I cant believe they look how they do knowing what went on this whole time.
Fastbuds crystal meth is 3days into flush and i will be cutting it down this weekend most likely.
Mephisto hubbabubbasmelloscope is smelling like sweet sweet candy and is thick in resin
Bighead seeds freeze berry/ blueberry crumble has a dank pungent stank to it and also is frosty but larrfy
Big bomb is still growing thick and have bud sites everywhere
Now I'm ready for the next batch and ready to get dialed in!
Growing report:
The growth through veg stage was amazing couldn’t fault the plant or the feed BUT then flower stage is where these genetics goes all wrong! So two weeks into flower I see one plant had Hermied, so gave this one the axe, and then spoke to acouple of other growers that have the same strain Had the same problem So it’s now named (hermie pie) then in week 5 all plants Hermied. I managed to keep the seeds at bay mostly and slow down the process of them seeding until harvest on week 7/8 I got signs of bud rot but dealt with that quick enough it didn’t damage the rest of the the harvest. Once harvested they got a light trimming then hung up for 5/6days at temperatures 20/28 and humidity 45/60.
Used Trimbag for the rest of the trimming process, got 6oz off 3plants 😬 curing for 2weeks in one ounce Jars 75% full.
Bud report:
Smell; is sweet and tangy
Taste; sweet spicy taste
Density of buds out of 10; 8.
Some seeds found in buds😞
Thank you all for watching another stressful but fun and learning harvest.
I stressed this lady out early accidentally , she bounced back as best as I permitted room for . She bared with me all the way until the end throughout this entire learning cycle . I’m deeply appreciative for the ease of grow & level of bounce back she had . It was the most impressive grow but it didn’t require rocket science to grow this either
So langsam kommen die kleinen in Schwung. Riechen schon sehr lecker 😅 heute wurden noch ein paar Triebe von unten weg genommen. Ab jetzt in der interessanteren Phase werde ich auch Close up Bilder machen. Schönes Growen euch allen. 😊🤗
Week 24
October 10 - Daylight 11h : 8h20 / 19h20
Temperatures 14° C to 23/24°C - globally rainy weather during the end of September and beginning October. Rare sunny moment but cool temperatures: best conditions to develop mold or diseases. Even if the plants are in a protected from rain and ventilated area. It’s why I harvested 2 plants ( Break Pad Breath + Flash Back #2 ) before losing the yield destruct by botrytis.
Royal Moby and GMO x Zombie Kush are still flowering.
RM: interesting sativa flowering, productive and resilient. Lot of resinous flowers; maybe it will be some seeds inside appearing after an autopollination. No mold for the moment.
Impressive refreshing Lemon smell. Ready in 10 days max.
GMO x ZK: ending the flowering cycle in a good way: pretty dense flowers, covered by resin. Spicy and flowery aroma. I had to cut a little bud attack by botrytis. Ready soon.
Last weeks just add pk13/14 + Bud XL and overdrive + enzymes
Start flushing now.
Hola a todos amigos!! Esta semana hice un trasplante a una maceta de 20 litros, apesar de dicho stress la planta ha crecido algunos centímetros.
Regue con top veg 2ml x litro de agua.
El resto de los días solo con agua.
Wow, I had so much fun growing this. I wasn't even going to grow this at first. I planted it alongside 2 11l pots and a 20l and knew I'd run out if space but thought I'd put this 5l in the tent and experiment, but it's been my favourite so kept it.
I never had much experience, tried one outdoor grow last year that flopped a bit so invested in an indoor set up and I'm happy I did, it's been worth it and can't wait to get started again.
I took a real laid back approach, no nutrients, little LST and just let it do it's thing. Had some issues at first with stretching and then adjusted too much and it started bending. But it recovered well and just so excited for my real first harvest. Can't wait to try it.
8/2:
Everybody is potted up in a 3 gallon pot now. I sprayed them all with Boom Boom Spray one day, and foliar fed with kelp and Superthive all week.
They got their first real feeding with TPS One and seemed to like it. I also gave them a little molasses.
Growing nicely, I'm excited for a high CBD and THC strain combination. It's supposed to be a good strain well-balanced medical strain with less stoney effects but still a pain & mood management, hopeful it'll work for me.
Hey everyone ☺️.
It gets more beautiful from week to week 😍👍.
I have them all this week Sprayed again properly with neem oil in the veggie phase ☺️.
There have been no trips for 2 weeks, but prevention is better 😀.
Because of the neem oil, the plants look very dark and shiny, which I really like when they shimmer like that 😝.
I didn't do any training these days, that will be done again the next few days 👌.
it was watered twice this week with around 0.6 l per plant.
The Ph / Ec measuring device was also recalibrated.
Otherwise there is nothing to report for this week and we'll see you again with the next update ☺️👍.
I wish you and your families a Merry Christmas 😊.
Stay healthy and let it grow 🍀

These girls are just looking and smelling TASTY! Haha been a good week lots of the smaller buds have filled out alot this week tryed to open them up a bit more again have removed alot of leaves from the smallest one n still amazed at just how much bud its packing haha
At nearly 100%milky trichs now so be interesting to see how much longer they go now lol im actually just starting week 8 of flower n its 8 to 10 week strain depending on what you want out of it but that amazing taste fully starts in at 10 weeks n over so will be definitely going full 10 cos well why not haha
Only issue that may arise is temps as we are now heading into mid 30s outside which causes my room to run a little warmer lol like mid 30s but girls dont seem to mind at this point just dont want to many days in a row in 30s hate my room going over 28/29
Lfg growing so healthy and looks strong,I made them a good defoliation and opened them as you can see in video,(3left will be done tomorrow).
SANLight Working at 100% intensity.
Keep getting bigger!
The bag seeds have gotten very stretchy and tall/skinny. A couple of the Northern Lights and GDPs have also gotten some very tall colas.
The CO2 canister tapped out after about a week and a half instead of two. These things are a pretty big ripoff really. Replaced the contents with alcohol ingredients (fermenting yeast and sugar water to create CO2) until my mushroom bag gets here.
Changing the canister caused it to fall and break a bag seed. Taped the splits, so far seem to be recovering fine. Had to take a small branch off, but made it into a little clone to turn into a cannabonsai.

Besonderheiten: Die Linsen wurden entfernt und wir haben mir dem LST begonnen, wir haben ihnen noch ein paar Nützlinge in die erde gesetzt
-Tag 16 Heute haben wir mit dem LST Begonnen und sie hat sich sehr gut vom Toppen erholt.
- Tag 18 heute wurde sie Entlaubt damit die Triebe mehr kraft bekommen und schön im Licht stehen.
- Tag 19 heute wurden wieder die LST Sticks angepasst damit sie in form bleibt.
