This week the flowers became bigger and denser. They all look very healthy, and the smell is really strong right now. If you enter the house you can smell it right at the entrance... Today I have increased the lights to 100% and the sunrise simulation was on as well. My prediction is that the Sweet ZZs will be the first plants that are ready to harvest, then the Royal Cookies, and then Green Gelato. I've set the dehumidifier to 40% humidity, because I would love to protect the buds from rotting. The temperature is around 25-26 degrees, the humidity is very stable.

Been a joy too grow this tester , been healthy from start too finnish , green buzz nutrients kept this plant healthy and productive , this plant is slowly begening too ripen , so next week the flush will begin on her , I will hopefully get another 2 weeks out of her yet , so a nice two week flush ,

We begin week 5.buds will begin to fatten. Nothing to report. Im basically on auto pilot. Focusing only on water changes and then the flush.

Day 16 – Strengthening Outdoors Begins Today marks the 16th day for my CBD Auto 20:1 from the 420 Fast Buds collection. The little warrior is continuing to show good progress! After a few days of gradual hardening off, I started taking the plant outdoors twice a day – once in the morning and once again in the afternoon – to introduce it to real sunlight and gentle outdoor conditions. Each session lasted around 30–40 minutes, depending on the temperature and light intensity. The weather has been quite typical for spring in Ramsgate: a mix of cloud cover with bursts of sun, with light intensity varying between 600–1100 μmol/m²/s. The plant seems to be adapting well – no visible signs of shock or stress so far! At the moment, I’m still cautious about leaving it out all day, as nights are still a bit too cold for such a young seedling. But I can already tell: the stems are starting to strengthen, the leaves are becoming slightly thicker, and the plant is gaining confidence facing the outdoor elements. This is a special project for me – a true budget-friendly outdoor grow, where I’m letting the natural light and environment shape the plant’s journey. No artificial supplementation – just patience, observation, and care. Looking ahead: In the coming days, if the temperatures stay kind (especially the mornings), I plan to gradually increase the time outside, and soon transition the plant to full outdoor life. Step by step, no rush. Overall feeling: Happy with the plant’s spirit and the direction this grow is taking. The bond between grower and plant grows stronger with every little sun session! Day 19 – Full Sun Adventure and Hydration Today marks a big milestone for my CBD Auto 20:1 plant – its very first extended outdoor session! The weather has been absolutely perfect, with bright, strong sunshine all day long, delivering a consistent light intensity above 1400 μmol/m²/s. Feeling confident after a successful hardening-off phase, I kept the plant outside from the afternoon well into the evening, enjoying the natural elements. To support the plant through this sun-filled day, I provided a generous watering with 1L of clean, pH-balanced tap water. I continue to carefully oxygenate the water before use, promoting healthier root development and stronger overall growth. The plant is responding beautifully: Leaves are vibrant and standing tall. Stem is gaining thickness and resilience. Overall growth structure looks compact, healthy, and well-adapted to natural light. I’m very pleased with the progress. If temperatures remain favourable tomorrow, the plan is to move the plant outside from early morning and allow it to enjoy the full day’s cycle under natural light – another important step towards full adaptation to outdoor life. One day at a time – and the journey continues! Day 20 – First Full Outdoor Day! Another big step forward for my CBD Auto 20:1 plant! Today, for the first time, I moved the plant outdoors for the full day to enjoy the natural sun and fresh air. The morning started strong, with a bright clear sky and an impressive light intensity of 1600 μmol/m²/s. The air temperature was a perfect 22°C, giving the plant ideal conditions to embrace the full outdoor environment. Observations: Leaves are standing tall and reaching toward the sun, showing excellent energy and adaptation. The stem is gradually thickening and strengthening, becoming more resilient with each day. No signs of stress or drooping, even under intense midday light. Environmental Conditions: Full sun exposure throughout the day. Light breeze, but nothing too strong – just enough to naturally strengthen the stem. This is a major milestone, and the plant looks truly happy and energetic! From here, the focus will be on gradually adapting it to full day-night outdoor conditions, allowing it to thrive naturally under the UK summer sun. The outdoor adventure has officially begun – and Sators is back in the race stronger than ever! Day 21 – Surviving the Heatwave, Growing Stronger Another exciting day for my CBD Auto 20:1 grow! The weather gave us a real test of strength yesterday, and my little warrior is showing amazing resilience. Conditions: Peak sunlight intensity: around 2000 μmol/m²/s – incredibly bright and intense! Temperature in direct sunlight: reached up to 35°C during the day. Nighttime temperatures still remain low, so for safety and steady development, the plant continues to be brought indoors overnight. Despite the daytime heat spike, the plant handled it impressively well: Leaves are vibrant and wide open, reaching confidently towards the light. Stem has gained more thickness, showing clear signs of strengthening after the outdoor sessions. No visible stress such as leaf curl, wilting or discoloration. Observations: The combination of intense sunlight and warm temperatures has definitely accelerated photosynthesis and growth rate. At the same time, careful night protection ensures no shock from the colder UK nights. Balancing between the power of the sun and the comfort of indoor shelter is paying off! It’s fascinating to watch the plant adapt to real outdoor forces day by day – it’s growing not just bigger, but stronger, smarter, and more resilient. The outdoor training continues… and so does the journey of “Sators” in this race!

Esta semana la GG auto 1 se le ha doblado la punta por el viento que hizo

Greetings, fellow cultivators and green enthusiasts! Week 5 of our Apolo F1's journey has unfolded with the promise of blooms as she gracefully transitions into the pre-flower/flower/late veg phase. Join me as we continue this botanical saga, witnessing the emergence of blossoms, the transformation into a lush green bush, and the strategic shift from last veg mix water to the imminent flower mix. The botanical ballet of bending and shaping persists, guiding our Apolo F1 into a beautifully orchestrated dance of controlled chaos. Every leaf and branch is a stroke on the canvas of growth, creating a masterpiece that reflects both elegance and efficiency. The green virtuoso is not just growing; she's evolving into a captivating bush of vitality. As she enters the pre-flower/flower/late veg phase, the first signs of blooms are beginning to grace our Apolo F1. It's like witnessing the unveiling of nature's artistry, as tiny buds emerge, promising a bounty of blossoms in the weeks to come. The anticipation is as exciting as the first notes of a symphony! The bold decision to top our flourishing Apolo F1 is revealing its impact. Multiple colas are forming, creating a lush and bushy canopy. This strategic haircut is paying dividends as our green virtuoso prepares to showcase a rich and complex performance. It's a testament to the power of calculated risks in the art of cultivation. Amidst the botanical crescendo, a shift in the aqueous symphony is underway. This week marks the transition from the last veg mix water to the imminent flower mix. The nutrient-rich serenade continues, with a TDS of 390 ppm and a pH of 6.0, ensuring our Apolo F1 receives the specific nourishment needed for the impending floral spectacle. With each passing day, the moon on harvest day beckons. Our green companion is on the trajectory to a bountiful harvest, and this journey is not just hers; it's a celebration for flowering girls around the world. Each bud, a testament to the collective magic of cultivation. As we marvel at the unfolding blooms and the lush greenery, a heartfelt thank you to Aptus Holland for being the architects of this nutrient symphony, and to Royal Queen Seeds for the botanical star of our green opera. Join me in the next chapter of our Apolo F1 Mission Diary, where we'll witness the crescendo of blossoms and the anticipation of the moonlit harvest. Until then, may your gardens flourish, and your green endeavors be ever abundant! As always thank you all for stopping by and for supporting me on this journey, i am super passion about growing and fell blessed to have you all with me on this new journey

This is the moment all LST fans around the world been waiting for… lol so week 3 is behind, seems I have some mess-ups with the watering, because I’m really confused about the amount and frequency of watering. the info i get from the internet is contradictory “dont overwater” vs “pour till it runs out”. Yesterday (day21) finally bought a fan to make them dance a bit, and overnight I noticed a visible reduction in stem movement, meaning they reacted with stronger rooting (I want to beleive 🤓). and today 25.09 (day22) I’ve performed LST. first thoughts were “not as easy as it seemed on youtube” but then got the hang of it. the biggest challenge is the soft pot having so much give and its hard to fix the wire in place. btw, used 2,5mm electrical wire, because couldn't find a thick gardening wire. No issues in the process. setting up a timelapse to see how the lst works out and a little “side project”. Always wanted to buy a plant of rosmary and grow it. I found an old aluminum milk(?) pot in the garbage the other day, so decided to make a pot out of it. turned out pretty nice, I think

So... It's that time again, I was planning on keeping her going for another 11 days but the trichomes are telling me differently, they are around 10% amber, with 70% cloudy and 20% clear. Personally, I like slightly speedy highs, and not such a fan of couch lock. So, she will be chopped in 4 days time (D121 - F74). I have cut back the nutrients, water is around 500ppm now, leaves on the top of the canopy are yellowing. The pistols have turned a pinky brown, and there is a real difference in smell these past few days, proper heavy dank smell. I will be swapping out the water for a final flush on D118 - F71. She will be in the dark for for the last 48 hours and temps will stay at 16ºc. She will be wet trimmed, a cola at a time, and then hung in my grow room in the dark at 55% RH and approx 14 - 16ºc. I will post one last flowering week once she is hung up in 6 days time or so, and then will post harvest details once she's dry enough to go into jars. Happy growing all!

Han estriado bastante, siguen fuertes. Esta semana intensificare la defoliacion. Mantengo luz al 75%. Han estirado muchissimo, he tenido que subir el foco. Aumento la potencia de luz al 100%.

Après une semaine passé, nous entrons dans le vif du sujet 😈 Les plantes se developpent correctement : • Bluegelato 41 / Blackberry Cake / French macaron produisent déja plus de trichomes que Purple Bud & Girls scout. • Ajout de MR2 pour l'apport en Phosphore & potatium necessaire à la phase de bourgeonnement .

Update: 29/07 - Thought I would include a short video which shows that I have quite a small space to work with and my setup. She’s looking good and seems happy, swelling away in her garden and is even starting to get purple tints! She’s living up to her name, the purple pheno is quite rare so I’m super chuffed. Welcome to week 10! As you can clearly see by the pictures, she’s doing well and covered in sugar! Pistils are still quite white although a few are starting to darken, trichomes are becoming increasingly cloudy with a few that are amber but still a small amount. I am going to harvest a bit later to grab a bit more CBN. Buds are fattening up and she’s turned out to become a real stunner, for a first grow I’m sitting quite proud of myself. Peace brothers and sisters ✌️

Muy buenas familia por fin hoy es su último día 😁😁 🤤

The runtz are about 45cm start of this week and the tall LCC is 75cm. She is also further into flower, but did not spread out so much in the tent. RAK seems to be very good with high PPFD, for the LCC they need a bit less I can feel.

day 49 just pure water phed down. it is day 51, morning before lights on, I might chop today. I use a zero water filter pitcher got off walmart. My humidifier is only a sonic wave. If you use regular tap water it will get gunky in a sonic humidifier. If you have a heat humidifier that boils the water the mist should be clean. These are the 2 types of water humidifiers. Researching best water filters this "zero water" also comes with a free ppm meter! yay! Other water pitcher brands; the water still has ppm. So water misted will still have ppm contamination. You can easily used distilled water only, and reverse osmosis. I just fill a 4gal office water jug with the pitcher and fill my humidifier when needed. I do not use a humidifier in my entire grow up to this point when I chop, I need the perfect rh or this whole effort can fail. growing up to this point only requires 20% effort, chopping now for the 2 weeks dry is this 80% of crucial determination, succeed. A lot of tasks are required today for a clean chop. I feel confident, observed my cross seeds with pink paradise and one with a slightly open caylex looks dark enough for successful germination. I figured 8-16 seeds may be created, 3-4 buds were potentially pollinated. Many growers don't understand when creating genetics with female/female there is a slight chance of herm. You lose 50% of your genetic function. Just water last 2 days, no humic no folvic, 1st time entire grow ha! There is a lot of cleaning to do, remove the trees, clean the entire tent and environment with bleach water, hacksaw. I am very proud of my grow. I have sampled 3 of the strains, dr. thunder legit made my lips numb but it could have just been the terps removing my skin cells from the sticky filter, no lie. This is my best grow to date. I did this for you, and to document hype or not under the best conditions I could give my plants, full max potential, although I wish I had more lights, I am not looking for industrial lol, this is how I grow. Learn a lot on youtube and podcasts there is many good content and I may dab into it. You can have a room full of growers and you have 1 seed in your hand, they will all tell you that their way is correct ;) and the best way. Oreo is stinky AF, Bridal is just amazing glad its massive, just not into sativa but the test seemed slight sativa with majority indica, pink untested, dr, thunder just a lip numming plant aha, its very nice, all 4 amazing appeal like advertised, and excited for next run. Either crosses from this or other copycat genetics. I will give you beautiful glamout shots today, the sizes of the plants, My guesstimate bridal 1lb, thunder 1lb, pink, 0.4lb, bridal 0.5, I am ambitious off 640w lm301h, and 4x 20w blurples daisy chained. day 51 4 chopped see you in a few weeks :D

Heavy Defoliation and Training this week, Noticed a bit of TMV on one leave (Tobacco Mosaic Virus) Thankfully it didn't really affect the plants growth at all! Stay Tuned
