12 weeks / 84 days old today. So my first grow journey is coming to an end! Not a lot to report this week. Been using my jewellers loupe daily to keep an eye on the trichomes and can definitely see a big difference. (Sorry, pictures are crap - don’t have enough hands to get a good one!) Still watering with plain water but they’re taking a lot less and only been watered every 4 days or so. Sticky orange has lots of cloudy trichomes and starting to get a few Amber. Her leaves are drying off so she is getting harvested before the weekend. Purple skunk is a bit behind so I think I will wait and see how she goes for another week or so. I always thought she’d be the one to finish first too. I think I will be drying in the garage. We are consistently getting 18 degrees outside now but with the temperature drops at night, I am not sure whether to bring the buds inside overnight. I’ll be drying in a hanging ‘herb’ dryer and I have my curing jars all labelled and ready to go. Thinking of wet trimming roughly then going in for a final dry trim later once dry to neaten them up. Drying advice welcome! I did think I’d have to harvest in stages and chop the lower buds later on. But even the bottom buds look like they’ve caught up this week. I have honestly enjoyed every second of this grow and I’m almost disappointed it’s nearly finished. But at the same time, I can not wait to see (and taste) the final result!

Dam we got some frosty ladies developing here! Crazy sweet, jelly berry candy aromas busting out the tent. Had to lower the one light because of issue with power setting. The canopy is a bit of mess, but its expected when growing 7 different phenos. The plants also couldve gone into flower about week earlier. We just installed UVB bulbs for the last weeks, cannot wait to see what that does! Happy days, check yall next week.

Hello growmies! Welcome to week six of An Epsilon Adventure! Massive thanks to both Shogun and Royal Queen Seeds for sponsoring this grow! So here we are at week six and every one of these girls are at a slightly different stage, it is quite fascinating to watch them develop one after the other. Today I made the last adjustment to the light possible. I removed the adjustable hangers and affixed a carabiner which I tightly tied to the top of the tent bar. There is about 1.5 inches of space between the top of the shade and the tallest part of the roof of the tent. Plant 1 is already taller than this, and it looks like plant 6 and maybe even plant 5 are going to join it. It's a madness. I am sure you have already looked at the photos but just in case you do what I do and read the diary first... Here is my assessment at the beginning of week 6: Plant 1: Height: 1st (137cm) - what can I say about this ridiculous plant? Day 36... 137cm tall. I have had to raise the light to as high as it is physically possibly to raise it and it's still not high enough. She is done stretching now, she may add 3-5cm over the next week or so but I don't expect more than that, so her top of her main cola going to have to develop above the level of the light. Nothing I can really do, nothing wise anyway. What a monster plant. Maturation: 4th - early into flower - bud sites developing, pistils just starting to explode. Plant 2: Height: 4th (111cm) - this plant has been there or there abouts as the tallest plant for most of the grow, but she has topped out at 111cm. She will gain some during flower but not much more than a few centimetres. Very impressive plant, loads of bud sites, really big strong secondary branches. This one is going to be colas galore. Maturation: 3rd - well into flower - all white pistils Plant 3: Height: 6th (95cm) For some brief days the tallest plant in the room, she peaked early and is now the "shortest" at "only" 95cm for this "50-70cm" strain. She is utterly dwarfed by four of her five sisters in just about every department, being quite a bit smaller even than plant 4 (although I have removed the most lower nodes from this plant). Compared with her sisters she is almost a runt... except that she is 25cm taller than the strain top-end average and matches the maximal height of the previous tallest Epsilon F1 plant I am aware of. It's not that she is small, actually she's pretty big for an Epsilon F1, it's just that the rest of the girls are on another level altogether. Plants 1, 5 and 6 are all absolute beasts. Maturation: 1st - well into flower - first shades of brown in some pistils. Plant 4: Height: 5th (98cm) although only 3cm taller than plant 3, overall she is a much larger plant. Her secondary nodes are the same height as plant 3. Maturation: 2nd - well into flower - all white pistils Plant 5: Height: 3rd (113cm) - one of the two thick/short girls who have grown at a similar pace all along - she is further ahead than plant 6 but not by much and I think she will probably exceed 120cm this week, though I do not think she will outgrow plant 1 or 6. Maturation: 5th - early into flower - bud sites developing. Plant 6: Height: 2nd (120cm) - my predictions were correct about this girl and her continued growth. I now think she might actually outgrow plant 1, which is quite worrying. Maturation: 6th - early into flower - bud sites forming - by far the least mature plant of the six. ### Week 6 Day 2 23:00 30/7 Photographed. Raised the light. Rotated the plants. Inspected, measured and reported on each plant. ### Week 6 Day 3 23:00 31/7 It has not escaped my attention that the plants that are more advanced into flower have darkened and have some burnt tips. I need to flush them and lay off the base nutes a bit. These plants are just growing and maturing so quickly that I cannot keep up. ### Week 6 Day 5 02:30 2/8 Fertigated 3l of nutrient mix, without either COCO A or B. ### Week 6 Day 6 01:30 3/8 photographed --- Thanks for reading growmies! 👊 ========== Tent: 120cm x 120cm x 180cm Light: 600w HID Elite Dual Spectrum HPS + Angel Wing Reflector Air: 5" duct fan system with carbon filter ~300 m3/hour + RAM 9" floor fan + 4" intake fan Pots: Air Pruner Fabric Pots 30l - UGro XL Coco + horticultural grade perlite (~20%) Seeds supplied by Royal Queen Seeds https://www.royalqueenseeds.com Nutrients supplied by Shogun Fertilisers https://www.shogunfertilisers.com/en ==========

Hey farmers, It's day 107 and I'm going to call it done, there's a few amber trichomes and she could probably go ANOTHER week but I need my flower tent. This plant went way overtime, and I made a lot of mistakes, but she smells great and one thing is for sure, I'll have a ton of weed in a few weeks. So, this week I flushed and next week I will harvest, the next update to this diary will be post dry, but before cure. As tradition, I'll have a sneaky taste before putting her in jars. For my next cycle I will be upgrading my lights to Mars Hydro FCE 3000, going from 150w to a whopping 300w. I'll probably get a 3x3 in the near future, too. As always, stay safe and happy farming!

Il titolo lo potrei definire ( meravigliose creature) . Cmq siamo alla quarta settimana è tutto va alla grande, devo dire che per me che vengo dall’idroponica, lavorare con la terra è davvero semplice. Domanda per gli esperti; come vi sembra questa coltura? Devo sistemare qualcosa?

It worked! After 30 days away, I returned home to see if automating the first 30 days of this grow using the Blumat watering system and automated fan from AC Infinity worked. Day 36 - I defoliated quite a few large fan leaved and did some LST to expose some flowers to light.

The end of week 9. This week was a bit of a struggle due to temperatures. Airco was missing and a replacement was found after a week. The increasing temperatures caused heat stress to all four plants and slowed growth. The buds are now starting to mature and ripen. The fade is starting now. The trichomes are still underdeveloped with 50% cloudy and 50% translucent. EC will be lower again this week. I'm hoping it will be ready before day 80. Check my other diaries for the progress with the other medusa plants.

Many colas and hard buds here! Hope to get good results, even if i got some deficiencies. One of the three had some issues and didnt flower properly, the buds are airy and there is little resin production, while the other 2 have frosty and well stacked buds. I think they will need an extra couple week to finish off. As soon as i see 100% milky trichomes with 10/20% amber i will cut them down. Gonna keep u up to date

FINALLY STARTING THE PHOTOPERIODS AND I HOPE MY TIMING IS GOOD FOR CHOPPING THE AUTOFLOWERS..........SEEDS PUT INTO THE SOIL ON JUNE 22ND. SORRY TO EVERYONE WHO TRIES TALKING TO ME....I STILL CANT TALK TO ANYONE BECAUSE I TRIED CHANGING MY EMAIL ON HERE AND IT MESSED EVERYTHING UP. I CANT LIKE ANYTHING OR COMMENT ON ANYTHING. THE WORST IS I CANT JOIN CONTESTS STRIVE NUTRIENTS IS THE BEST IVE EVER USED. A MUST TRY AND I BUY IT MYSELF. GOT A SAMPLE LAST YEAR AND ITS SO GOOD I BOUGHT MORE. ITS A 2 PART POWDER NUTRIENT THAT DISSOLVES IN MINUTES AND YOU MIX THE SAME STRENGTH OF THE 2 PART NUTRIENTS FROM WEEK 2 UNTIL THEY ARE FINISHED (BESIDES THE FLUSH), NO MORE BULLSHIT OF SWITCHING TO BLOOM FERTILIZER. THATS MY FAVORITE THING BESIDES THE RESULTS. CHECK EM OUT AND BELIEVE EVERYTHING YOU READ BECAUSE ITS NO BULLSHIT, AWESOME FRIENDLY AND HONEST PEOPLE

So, I start the harvest last week, but didn't get time to post here, first were the top bud, and this week I got the rest of the plant, it is a good strategy as the lower buds could develop a little more! Amazing growth! I am very happy with the wield, it was my 3 growth at all and my first LST! Great results! Thank you all for the support! Now I will stop for 3 months, going to Africa for a little bit! :-)

🌱 Woche - Week 8 Review (Umtopfen in den Garten)(Repotting in the garden) 📈 Wachstum: Diese Woche der große Umzug – die Pflanze wurde in den Garten verpflanzt 🌱➡️🏡. Sie hat dort mehr Platz für die Wurzeln. Wächst etwas schräg, wirkt aber stabil und vital 💪. 💡 Licht & Energie: Volle Sonne wird sehr gut angenommen ☀️, keinerlei Stress sichtbar. 🌿 Blattgesundheit: Nach kurzer Eingewöhnung zeigt sie wieder volle Kraft. 💧 Wasser & Nährstoffe: Direkt nach dem Umpflanzen mehr Wasser benötigt, jetzt wieder im Gleichgewicht. 🔄 Entwicklung: Noch volle Wachstumsphase, jetzt mit mehr Raum zur Entfaltung. ℹ️ Hinweis: Normalerweise ist eine Gorilla Zkittlez Auto nach etwa 75 Tagen fertig. Bei mir dauert es wohl länger – aber das ist völlig okay, da es meine allererste Pflanze überhaupt ist 🌱. Keine Growbox, kein Indoor, einfach draußen – mein erstes richtiges Grow-Erlebnis. ✅ Fazit: Erfolgreich im Garten angekommen, bereit für die nächste Phase 🚀. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 📏 Growth: Big step this week – transplanted into the garden 🌱➡️🏡. More space for the roots now. Growing a bit tilted, but still strong and healthy 💪. 💡 Light & Energy: Full sun is well received ☀️, no stress signs. 🌿 Leaf Health: After a short adjustment, vitality came back. 💧 Water & Nutrients: Needed extra water right after transplant, now balanced again. 🔄 Development: Still in full vegetative growth, with more space to expand. ℹ️ Note: Normally a Gorilla Zkittlez Auto finishes in about 75 days. For me, it will probably take longer – but that’s fine, since this is my very first plant ever 🌱. No grow box, no indoor, just outside – my first real grow experience. ✅ Overall: Successfully settled in the garden, ready for the next stage 🚀.

Well she over doubled her height this week! Look how much she's bushed out too! Possibly flowering has just started? Not sure how much she will stretch.
