Another week closer to harvest! She’s looking and smelling amazing!! I can’t wait to smoke this delicious plant. I can’t get over the beautiful huge colas! I’m out of plant yo-yos!!

I started her directly in the soil of my Grow on the Go. I really didn't pay that much attention and once I cut the Lemon Cherry Cookies I just had the pot outdoors on Campground. Of course hiding a plant on Camp Grounds is not ideal conditions and the intension was to grow a plant outdoors while travelling.

shes getting there now, considering shes under a 100w light shes doing well. stinking now too, smells like a bag of haribo tangfastics, really sour with a mixed fruit hint, stem rub smells exactly like fresh cut grapefruit honestly haha hard to pick out a specific fruit smell from the bud though its just fruity, yous know what i mean anyway ha. really sensetive to nutes, getting burn even after low dose and feed, water, water, feed schedule.

Deleafed on D75 and put in darkness for 2days. Chopped and hung in tent for 9 days. Smoked up a fair bit before weighing so easily would of been over 3oz dry which was pretty surprising considering the problems. Bud has a strong fuel taste and smell with a little fruitiness.

Three weeks into flower and things are moving along. I defoliated some of the lower branches and spread out a few branches here and there. Other than that it's the same situation as always. Nutrients are pumping and lights are beaming. Everything is running smooth and all is well with the world. Like some namaste shit going on around here at the moment. Could very well just be the calm before the storm...

This week I noticed the buds got more bigger but also the calcium deficiency has gotten worse and so to battle that I added gypsum to the medium and gave them two waterings with banana peels 🍌in the water ( I read banana peels give off Potassium, Phosphorus, Calcium, and magnesium) hopefully they bounce back and my yield isn’t affected too bad.

Are they going into flower? There is not many signs of that because i have a small leak of light between them but will see 🤞

Weeks 6-7-8 should probably have been better controlled. I'll definitely control the heights better for the next grow. I didn't defoliate, top nor supercrop. I'll do that for the next grow.

06/03/2021 Week 10 and pistils are turning brownish in color as new growth is still coming starting to get some serious smell now, I put her outside for a little fresh air and light drizley rainy afternoon will be brought back in doors to dry her leaves, and back under Iights to finish her day. Maybe trim some leaves? Hmmm. Ps. Put up 3 pics of day #5 week #10 of flower, she may go to week 12 but we will see.

77 days!!! wow she looks fantastic, the girl is maturing her flowers, they are growing very quickly :) I am going on a 5-day vacation now, so I think I will be very surprised to see her when I get back:) I am giving her advanced nutrients macro with 6.3 ph water, I think she has about 2-3 weeks left until harvest, good luck to everyone:)

Harvest came quicker than i thought it would. Taken awhile to update as I've had a few smokes to test after a heavy harvest so sorry about that. Pretty easy one to grow overall, didn't give this grow my full 100% as had a lot going on in my personal life but back to it now! Beautiful looking girl.. She had a 14 day flush as usual!

The first grow this summer was the finest i have ever produced however, the shit got moldy and i could have prevented that had i known hi heat and humidity makes it happen. You never think it will happen to you untill it does. Critical purple and gorilla glue just beautiful buds 100% worthless. So i got the 2 barneys farm seeds from a neighbor and i believe i let these 2 down. I just finished a heavy watering harvest and forgot these young ones werent drinking the way the last ones were so i over watered and maybe theres some nute lock out going on. I thought of just digging them out and examining the roots and possibly some attempt at root surgery but these are freaky deaky autoflowers and nobody can predict what these fuckers may or may not do. So, if its 80 and 50% humidity or less, they go in the yard if the sun is out. At night i check for bugs and critters and put them back in the 3x3 with the marshydro tsw2000 which is about 400 watts for a sleepless night of fake sun then repeat to death do us part! I hope i dont bring some shit into my tent from outside. I had a bad nightmare or more of a dillusion that i saw a shrew running across the silver floor. Being perpetually stoned will make you fuck up the whole grow. I have to admit i had 5 different strains in jars, labeled, dated notes etc..plus i can always look back here to see what i did but i took some from each and put a bit of each into a bag and wrote on them with marker the details. I was going to gift them to the guy who gave me the seeds to check it out and give me an honest opinion. Havent heard a word from the guy but whatever. Bottom line, i mixed up the lids that had the notes and mixed them all together by accident somehow. I have enough left to survive another harvest so at least i got that going for me and some seeds hopefully on there way. Excited about new seeds. I have enough decent lights to put my self in a good spot but need 2 more tents though i have a closet grow area set up that i hate to say does as good as good a job with no tent. Plus i sort of like the comforting light leaking out from the edges of the tarp i havec covering the opening and the whir of the fans. I have been growing 24/7 light schedule on auto flowers for 3 years now and it has never been a problem. Only thing i have to focus on is the 1000 different things you need to pay constant attention to and i have a serious problem with drying/curing. Everything ends up not smelling awesome at all. I keep 50% humidity and 70 degrees and adjust as they dry as different strains and grows just dry differently and thats it so there is no exact science but a pretty good outline to follow. However after watching video 2500 and looking more importantly at other grows right here, i believe the fact that i have been drying for 4 years in a closet with stagnent air and absolutley no ventilation at all. Thats the only thing i can think of thats seperating me from a green blazer with gold buttons. So whenever these 2 bitches decide to treat me better, i will be xtra attentive to the dry. esp with ventilation and of course i have discovered a new chemicle that i think i absolutley need. its called terpinator and im hoping that will give ne that 5 star bag apeal everybody wants. meantime, i have plenty of this shit that doesnt smell much, though its definatley weed when you smell it burn and its all mixed together and its a pretty trippy high though i cheat for some variety on occasion and hit the dispencary but the quality just isnt there anymore. I dont know if it ever was. I was getting much better weed that was home grown hydro bud and the shit was 250 for a freaking quarter ounce! 250! Top shelf best shit ever though. Thats my freaking goal in life. I have to clean the freaking bathroom as my moms comming over and she walks right past the weed and goes straight to the freaking bathroom and makes all sorts of claims about a 50 year old man who grows weed and keeps house like a 15 year old. Thing is, you really need to keep the environment as clean as possible and i just thought of something horrible. The bags i have waiting for the new seeds are all mixed up and i have no idea which ones had the moldy buds in them. Ill ask a grow question but nobody will know for sure and the safest bet will be to sterilize the tent after i finish up my Barneys Farm abortion, which may still turn out some decent buds, the fuckers refuse to die!!!!! and buy new grow bags and just start over to be safe. Or can i bring them to a laundrymat and wash and dry them? Ill ask.

Growth is okay. Nodal spacing is a little too big for me... the smell will get very intensive.

7/12/2021 - Removed stakes, training mains with periodic bending. - Noticing she's very short, internodal space is really small as well. - Unsure whether to trim out bottom growth on the first set of branches. 7/13/2021 - Did a major trim to really expose all the new potential colas. - Chopped and dropped fan leaves directly onto the soil to be used as a leaf mulch. - Added some fan leaves I had drying to the mulch layer. - Thinking of flipping the lights in about 2 weeks. 7/14/2021 - Re-staked mains to expose more tops. - Continuing leaf tucking for even canopy. - Strategizing feeding regiment for coming light flip. - Can't kill the residual LABs in the sprayer I've been using for my kelp solution, and it keeps fermenting out butyric acid. Upon a quick google search, it looks like indole-3-butyric acid is an auxin. Whether or not that matches what's in the sprayer is unknown. - Any pest pressure I expected to experience has been very light, almost non-existent. A few flies here and there as to be expected with organics, but not to the point of full blown infestation. For soil that's basically bare on top, very unexpected. 7/14/2021 - Performed a major pre-flowering morning trim. 7/17/2021 - Fed her some bloom fertilizer as I expect I'll be flipping the lights next week.

APRICOT GORILLA AUTO / GANJA FARMER HARVEST WEEK This lady produces golf sized trichome covered buds that had a sweet aroma to her. She's a nice smooth smoke not heavy at all light notes with this lady. Thank you for stopping by and taking a look it's much appreciated!! THANK YOU GANJA FARMER!! APRICOT GORILLA AUTO / GANJA FARMER

Today officially starts week 4 of flower.. - The best part of my day is waking at 530am to open my tent and get a big whiff of that beautiful aroma. MMMM. Gave the girls a good watering this morning and picked out some dying vegetation from under the canopy to keep things clean. Humidity is still a bit low, but with all the vegetation in there I don't mind. I'd literally cry if I got bud rot or some crap like that. - I noticed that the critical kush stems seem kind of of flimsy compared to the other strains. No doubt it smells amazing, but as she puts on more weight it's likely to become a problem. Maybe I should consider silica on the next run.?! Of the 3 kiwi skunk phenos, only one seems to be producing any significant tricombs or smell. The other two look as though they will be good yielders, however, I seriously doubt any real potency. - Of the 9 plants I currently have growing, I would expect I'll probably only keep 3, maybe 4. There's no point wasting time on mediocre bud. - I think the pheno hunt is the best part of the growing process. Every seed is like having a new child. Sometimes, they grow up to be such beautiful creatures. Other times, you can tell their clock ain't ticking right. You can end up with fat high powered coals or those small, no good popcorn buds. And, at the end of the day, unlike kids and wives, you can throw them away and not feel sorry for ordering new replacements online when you get tired of their BS. - - - I love that my tent is right next to my desk. It's the best view anyone could ever ask for! 😍 - Went through today and pulled out a small bit of water leaves to increase airflow from the bottom up to the top, as well as to allow the light to reach deeper in to the canopy. I don't get too crazy with the plucking. Only if its covering another cola or overlapping causing moisture to build up on the leaves. It works well, in my case, to keep the humidity down and limits places for any potential pests to hide while flowering. I usually pull out a handful every other day or so. - - Switched my center light (600w) down to 50% (flower spectrum only) on the 28th. With all of my lights on full spectrum, there's more than enough light for the plants (~1200w eq). I noticed new pistils emerging that shouldn't be and I fear it's causing light stress and/or foxtailing to the critical kush, which is directly in the center of the tent. Since it happened on my last grow with the blue dream and it's not inherently genetic, I'll err on the side of caution this time around.
