Got back on Day 42. Two are definitely in the flower stage. I was out of the country for 10 days for work. 😐 The self-watering system with water and BioBizz nutrients made it into the the plant. The reservoirs were almost completely empty after 10 days with 3L of water/nutrient in each. When I opened the tent, it was starting to smell and all of the plants had grown quite a bit while I was gone. I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE THIS WORKED!! I mean, I can. I was just nervous being gone for so long with no one checking on them. I'm going to keep the self-watering system in place. And I bought a better camera. I think this self-watering system will help me not over water so much. Also, since it's starting to smell, it's probably best not to open the tent too much. And yes, I have another work trip in two weeks. To another country. 😩 But I'll have a trusted friend coming by to check on things.

These girls are doing great. The square container is proving to work amazing. I do think I need to feed the one it's a little more hungry in the round container. I really do hope you folks enjoy my diaries cause I sure do. Check back next week to see just how fast she grows & remember its 4:20 somewhere!!!!!

Hello to you my dear friends and visitors👋 I transplanted the plant to a bigger rockwool cube on the fifth of september and added some veg nutrients...on September 10th i transplanted the Blue Cheese Auto seedling into a golden cheese grater, that i thought would be my idea for the Tiny Pop competition organized by Seedsman®️ Wish me luck 😊 The bright and lovely TS 1000 lamp from Mars Hydro is set at 55% of power is using about 65 Watt and is hanging at the height of 30cm as the manufacturer recommends. All the best to my fellow growers and friends, keep it growing friends 💪

I got a week and a half notice that I had to go on a work trip out of country for 10 days, so the clown show continued. I was definitely overwatering them. Thanks @shinsimilla, I saw the difference after waiting a few extra days. Also, I definitely should have started LST at least a week earlier than I did. Now for work issues: I found an old security camera that the cats had knocked over a million times and damaged. With a lot of tape, I got it working again and set up in the tent so I could see what’s going on while gone. Be warned, the photos are NOT good quality. I also looked up DIY self-watering systems. I needed it as simple as possible to reduce the risk of something breaking while I was thousands of miles away. I found one where it wicks water up a cotton or wool string. Here's the link: https://youtu.be/P0hn5cKZ0Z0 I cut up an old 10K shirt that was made of cotton. I had just broken down my balcony garden since it’s already getting cold here. I took two long planters, lined them with a construction garbage bag to be the reservoirs. Even though the floor of the grow tent is waterproof and I put plastic between the floor and outside of the grow tent, I didn’t want to risk any water getting out while I was away. I was nervous y’all. Basically, you wet the fabric then use a chopstick to run the it through the plant from bottom to top. It needs to be long enough to have a few inches sitting in the bottom of the reservoir. I filled each with 3L of water with the BioBizz nutrients mixed in and ph’d to 6.1. More info in week 5.

Day 90 / FL 15, Gave the GDP a heavy defoliation to help open up bud sites. Plant still has not stretched too much since flower flip. I either stressed her out to much or this is the characteristics of this pheno. Regardless I should have some nice bud in the end, just not a good yeild. Day 93 / FL 18, Plant has recovered very nice after heavy defoliation. Plant is still very short. Day 96 / FL 21, Added a 3/4 inch layer of living soil to add a little bit of extra nutrients. Waiting until week 5 of flower to add Gaia Green dry amendments to take me to the end.

Day 95 / FL day 15, Gave both plants a heavy defoliation to allow light into all bud sites. I think I'm pushing my luck with the amount of stress I've been giving these plants. But I also think they can take it. Only time will tell. Day 98 / FL day 18, Plants have recovered well after heavy defoliation. Lots of new leaf growth. Hopefully this will help to increase nug size. Day 101 / FL day 21, Topped dressed plants with a 3/4 inch layer of living soil for a little bit of extra nutrients. Waiting until week 5 of flower to add another round of Gaia Green dry amendments.

DAY 50 Watered with 1/2 teaspoon of molasses (and Epsom) in 2 litres of water. 💧 I am actually probably being a helicopter parent... 🚁 flap flap flap.. 😅 The buds fill up nicely. I will give her a slight feeding next time. Good thing about the small container is, you can adjust the nutes every 3 days. 😜 Princess Cherry Cola, at your command! :kneel: :bythepowerofgrayskull!: DAY 53 Watered with Biobizz nutes. 💧I always do 2L and stop when I see runoff. TS1000 still magnificently shining, dimmed to 90% at 40cm distance. 💡 Day 54 I turned the LED down to 75% due to massive damages on the leaves. 😬 Dang!!! These autoflowers get a lot of DPI when the lights are running 18h, I think that I really need to adjust my nutes in the future. So first I had a toxicity, then I ran into deficiency. All my fault. Now the girl is looking fine, trichome production is in full progress and I can't wait to see what the buds will do now. 😍 🐽 As for the feeding, I will go for a 100% Biobizz Allmix Schedule (soft) for flowering week 5/6 with 3ml/L bloom nutes and raise Calmag a bit. This is a learning experience, phew. 😅 🍒 ❤️ 🍒 ❤️ 🍒 ❤️ Have a wonderful week! 😘 🍒 🍒 🍒 🍒 🍒 🍒 🍒 🍒 🍒 🍒 🍒 🍒 🍒 🍒 _____________________________________________ SET UP Mars Hydro LED TS1000 sponsored by @coco_pan2022 😘 https://www.mars-hydro.com/led-grow-lights/ts-1000-led-grow-light custom exhaust fan 270/320 m³/h 3x Garden High Pro fans 5W tap water EC 0,25 - adding Calmag to EC 0,4-0,6 - adding pH minus Bloom (AHH) to pH 6,5 50% Plantaflor organic tomato soil 🍅 50% biobizz Lightmix

Tag 63: Die Green Gelato entwickelt sich wie im Bilderbuch. Sie hat sich nicht zu sehr gestreckt. Ich muss wohl kaum was weg nehmen außer unten ein paar helle Blätter 😁 Tag 67: Hatte heute die Erleuchtung! Ich gieße ausschließlich mit Britta gefiltert Wasser, was wohl auch schon das ein oder andere Mal zu Kalzium und Magnesium Mangel geführt hat. Was sich aber erst bei Cookies Gelato (grow 32) so deutlich gezeigt hat. Ich stelle nun langsam auf Leitungswasser um.
