420 Fastbuds Week 3 Gorilla Cookies Auto What up what up grow fam. This week has been fun as I decided to do a major defoliation taking off all fan leafs. I find it doesn't hurt the plant and it let's the lower branch receive more light. I will probably add a little calmag to my next feeding as I see a few rust spots on a couple leafs. All in all Happy Growing.

"Hi, I received my pH meter this week, so from week 6 onwards, I'm aiming for a pH value of 6.0 - 6.5. This week, I noticed that the plant in the small pot received too much fertilizer. The other two 7.5-liter fabric pots also received double the recommended amount according to the feeding schedule, but they don't show any signs of over-fertilization."

I took one plant down due to hermie the rest are just going through there final flushes and will be down this week as I need room for my new strains 😜💪🌱 Slowly getting there taken 4 down so far 💪🌱 Will update weights in day or 2

Starting week two and I hope she starts to grow more this week. hopefully the increase in water will help. week 1 i've only been giving 2-3oz a day of water today I began giving 2 cups of water.

5/28/24 oh damn baby, this cultivar is gonna be colorful 6/2 plant is still throwing out pistils but also chunking up quite nicely. I tried to create just mainly top colas. In description she should have a 3-5 nodal colas with disconnected nugs underneath that. But I only ended up with 3 node colas give or take but with maybe 2 more weeks if veg would've given me larger branches and bigger cola structure and can always cut the larfy.

Getting close to that time! Prob just a week or so out letting the trichromes darken up a bit more and going to chop em down! They look amd smell beautiful and I can’t wait to try them!

Week 1 of flower 👍🏾

D64. We're at the start of the fourth week of flower, and today was a busy day. First, I had to remove the old lights before swapping in the light from my auto tent. All while trying to avoid trashing the plants in the way too full tent. Not an easy task. The entire mission, with changing the light in the auto tent as well, took a couple of hours. I wish I could keep the Greenception lights in the tent as they're high-quality lights, but the Kingbrite has a much lower profile and thus takes up much less space. Space that I desperately need considering how insanely much these girls stretched. One of the tops on the second girl has unfortunately already been bunt by being too close to the light, and I'm sure I will run into light bleaching and probably foxtailing as the grow progress, but I hope I will be able to pull it off with the Kingbrite light. I also added some wire support to the branches that I super-cropped, as they looked somewhat sad after all the abuse to the canopy while swapping the lights. ------------------------------ D66. It looks like the girls have FINALLY stopped stretching. Phew! Yesterday, I gave each girl 2.5 liters of water @ pH 6.2 with humic acid and EM-1. Today, the green lacewing larvae (Chrysoperla Carnea) arrived, and I dispersed them in the tent to deal with the thrips. ------------------------------ D68. All is well in the tent, but now when the thrips are (hopefully) under control, it's time to address the VPD. It has gotten seriously out of wack due to dropping temps, plus I increased the humidity to make the environment more inhospitable for the thrips. The temps were low due to the light change as the new one is running a lot cooler, but the temps have also dropped outside. The heating in the lungroom has been off until now, so I turned that on and lowered the humidity threshold on my exhaust fan. Finally, I put my small humidifier in the tent, generating extra heat and decreasing the humidity. So far, the VPD has increased from a terrible 0.4-0.5 to an acceptable 0.9, and I'm hoping it will increase further as the ambient RH drops as we move into winter. ------------------------------ D70. We're at the end of the fourth week of flower, and all is well in the tent. The VPD has gone up to 1.0, which is a nice improvement to what it was only a couple of days ago. I haven't scouted yet for thrips, but I will give the lacewings a couple of days to do their thing and then look closer. However, I went to WAR against the spider mites we have in our ornamental plants in the apartment. I sprayed all plants with my homemade pesticide (capsaicin, alcohol, horticultural soap.) since I had it at hand. If that fails to knock the spider mites back, I'll bring out the neem oil instead. The infestations aren't bad (yet), but it would suck to get mites into my tents, so better to be proactive. ------------------------------

Had a lot going on this week so the plants didnt get any care or maintenance at all other than just checking on the water level a couple times. They need some major defoliation which I wanted to do this week but procrastination is the vibes currently. Will probably get some done next week.... the plants are looking good and most of them are bushing out pretty nice. They dont seem to be stretching as much as they normally do by this time, but they are transitioning to flower. Will probably do a flush and water change soon since they haven't had one in over a month. I'm just anxious to see some frosty buds at this point.

Week 4 - 01/22 to 01/28 2021 Pictures from Days 25 + 26 TRANSPLANTED! Might have waited too long but hopefully the transplant and LST stress might slow the plant down since i think it's already flipping to flower like the other @SweetSeeds Dark Devil Auto and the Purple Lemonade from @FastBuds. I think the Red Poison might have been the first one I noticed to flip but at least this one will be quick. More and more reasons to go back to a photoperiod grow after this for more control/really test out the new lights 🙌 Ended up more 50/50 ratio of Destiny Organic's Dark Matter Living Soil + ProMixHP since I had to make the Destiny last. Apparently they went out of business just after I decided it was my favourite/new soil :( Would rather stay away from Ocean Floor since I haven't had the best experiences with it (bugs/rust fungus etc) Feel free to drop some recommendations other than Fox Farms below 👍 The Red Poison Auto is going strong other wise, keeping the LST basic to see if I can still get the screen in the tent but it wouldn't be practical at this point. I raised the @ViparSpectraLED P1500 another eight inches after transplant and started basic LST. I really wanted to get these four under a ScrOG but if 3/4 are already flipping and the LSD is still runty I might have to wait it out again. Just like the Dark Devil in my other Sweet Seeds diary, there is a solid smell on the fingers after adjusting it/when the fan hit it just right 😍 I have the @MarsHydroLED TSL2000 set up and ready to go once the girls settle into their new pots. Have the new surge protector/heavy duty power cords/power tool grade timers as mentioned in Week 3. Some of it shown in the pictures. Threw some videos in this week as well with some Queen's Radio GaGa, Beastie Boys' Brass Monkey, and a little hint of Arkells ....COME TO LIGHT on the short @ViparSpectraLED ..GET IT.. 😓 I thought the Red Poison had the streaks in the leaves but turns out it was the Purple Lemonade, My Chocolate Mint OG Auto just finished curing so I must have made that update during the test session 😎 Chocolate Mint OG Auto Diary: https://growdiaries.com/diaries/77696-humboldt-seeds-chocolate-mint-og-auto-grow-journal-by-glazedgrow -- Thanks for checking in!

… just moved into my new home by @original_homebox and lads i can tell: the climate controlled by the @growcontrol.de growbase makes me so happy. Its so much nicer here than in that shady chamber. I also had my first „real“ simulated sunrise today . Omg its so cozy living at my new place. And i also have a training appointment with @le_rouge._ soon. I‘m so exited. Can‘t wait to show you more growth. Unsere privaten Growprojekte die wir mit freundlicher Unterstützung von unseren Partnern @growcontrol.de @original_homebox @mars.hydro @biotanicpro & @purolyt realisieren starten! 🌿

Buon inizio anno a tutti! 02/01/2023 La fioritura è ufficialmente iniziata, tutte le piante hanno mostrato il sesso e iniziare a far uscire i primi fiorellini 03/01/2023 Aprendo il box appena accese le luci nonostante aver dato una massiccia dose d'acqua il 01/01/2023 le piante avevano nuovamente sete come si può notare dalle due foto, fatte una prima dell'irrigazione e una circa un ora dopo l'irrigazione, notevolmente più vispe! 05/01/2023 Ora mai alle piante piace bere almeno una volta ogni due giorni, quindi anche oggi sono state annaffiate, 8 litri senza fertilizzare 07/01/2023 Anche oggi dati altri 8 litri di acqua senza fertilizzare 08/01/2023 Purtroppo ho trovato quello che sembra essere una sacca maschile su una pianta, per sicurezza e non rovinare il raccolto ho preferito eliminarla, per provare a coprire lo spazio lasciato vuoto nella rete ho piegato un pochino qualche ramo delle piante vicine.

In the third week of the cannabis plant growth cycle, significant developments occur that set the foundation for future growth and yield. This stage is crucial for implementing training techniques that ensure even canopy growth, promoting optimal light exposure for all parts of the plant. To ensure uniform growth and maximize light exposure, LST have been applied By the end of the third week, the cannabis plants have demonstrated excellent growth, supported by strategic training techniques and effective pest management practices. Despite the plant's healthy growth, the presence of fungus gnats posed a potential threat. To combat these pests, beneficial nematodes (Steinernema feltiae) were introduced into the soil. Continued monitoring and adjustments will be essential as the plants progress into the next growth stages to ensure a bountiful harvest.

Day 35- Did a really good watering today. I added a tablespoon of blackstrap per gal of water. Will see how she looks in the AM. Also been doing a little defoliation here and there. Will take more pictures tomorrow. Day 36- Took my tent out of the closet in my spare room. I wanted to be more discreet but it was too hard to work out of so I took it out. Really loving the new set up though! The girls DEFINITELY enjoyed the watering yesterday. Waiting on nutes for a bit longer since I'm using FFOF. So just water and blackstrap for now.

Last feeding, I have lowered the nuts as I observe that the plant has reached the maximum tolerable level of fertilizer and is approaching the end of its cycle. The buds have become denser and are as hard as rocks 🤤😍 . It smells amazing. At the next watering I will begin to wash the roots.

Siamo all'8 settimana le piante hanno sviluppato fiori ben formati,ora dobbiamo avere pazienza ed aspettare che diventino ancora più grandi,la maggior parte dei pistilli é ancora bianca e le piante ancora verdi,questo significa in grandi linee che la pianta può ancora produrre,incredibile la pianta in fondo a sinistra ha quasi toccato il soffitto,un autofiorente di eccezionali dimensioni,ancora all'inizio della fioritura

Removed 4 fan leafs, they shaded newly developed branches.
