Rolling into week 3 from seed roots are starting to drop through the net cups and down into the solution. Growth appears to be a lime green color, which would indicate that they are in need of more Nitrogen (N). One is struggling to keep up with the others and is looking a bit mutated and is not responding well to the nutrients I am using. I am going to add some 5.8 pH water to her rez and see if the dilution helps. Over all happy with the progress so far, Will post again next week with new progress.

No problems this week, plants growing extremely well. I got a new TDS meter, but unfortunately, I was not able to set up a drip system yet. The only training I did was to defoliate the first true leaves and everything below that. DAY 17 - Nutes PH - 6.1 Solution Temp - 19.5 PPM-1340 Watering Volume per plant - 2L DAY 20 - Water PH - 6.04 Solution Temp - 19.2 PPM-570 Watering Volume per plant - 2.5L Plant B is about 14cm Height and Plant A is about 17 cm Height. One interesting thing that I'm seeing is the fact that Plant B continues to show signs of deformity. On the video, you can see that the right side is missing a node, this missing node corresponds to the deform leaf. Maybe they are related, Plant A was slightly bigger from the beginning, but the node development is bigger in Plant B.

Clearly got dominated by her pot mate. Looks and smells awesome though. She got planted about a week after her pot mate. Maybe thats why she got the short end of the stick. These plants are not mine. I am just documenting them. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Set up cost (fixed costs) -Lamp: 40€ -Timer: 3,5€ -Pot: 4€ -Total fixed costs: 47,5€ Given 5 years (or 15 grows) usage time translates to around 3,17€ per grow in materials. Variable costs: -Seeds: 13,17€ -Soil: 6€ -Fertilizer: 3,50€ -Power (100 days 18h/day): ~25,92€ (exact figure after harvest) -Total variable costs: ~48,59€ -Total costs per grow: ~51,76€

a new grow is on the cards. it will be a race between two fast-flowering varieties. On one side we have fast buds with gorilla cookies and on the other side zamnesia with green crack F1. i'm trying to create the same conditions for both as much as possible. it will be an outdoor grow in an autopot flexipot system. both will get the same fertilisation and have the same substrate to grow in. the substrate is a mix of expanded clay from Plagron and coconut fibres from Canna. The fertiliser comes from Hesi. germination went very well. i first put the seed in water for 24 hours and then placed it in a wet paper towel for another 24 hours. the seed germinated after a total of 48 hours. then i planted it in the coco substrate and after another 48 hours the seedling broke through the soil and got its first rays of sunshine. it will be my last outdoor grow for this year and i'm looking forward to seeing how the plants grow in late summer.😋

I did try a new method to dry with this one (DryFermBags) weighted them every day and removed them from the bags after 10 days. She completely lost all the good smell and smells like hey now. 1 Of the bags also contained mold. Very sad cause i grew this pheno before and i love her smell.

Forgot to water these ladies for a couple of days but after a heavy watering and a good feeding they perked right back up. I have 2 flower tents running with sunset sherbet right now. Regardless of wether I think they are ready or not I will be switching them to flower in 3 more weeks. Can’t wait to see how these ladies flower!

Commencing Week 8: day 50 on January 19th Update is late my sincerest apologies. I will make it up by giving a very thorough smoke report when all is done. Otherwise all is going very well 😁😁👏👏 On day 50 I took the head off of bloody skunk. I checked trichome colors under USB microscope. At least 90% fully milky-white with maybe 5 or 6% Amber and the remainder clear. 😁 On day 55 I gave all of the plants a fan leaf trim including the remaining bottom half of bloody skunk. as I sit here and think about it I believe this will help with ensuring the entire plant ripens and matures at the same time - versus the tops being ready before the bottoms. I still plan on letting the bottoms of all these plants go way beyond the recommended time to see if I can initiate the process of rodelization. Either way I am glad to report that Bloody skunks pollenization looks like it is resulting in some seeds. (See photo). In hindsight my only concern is that because the plant finished a bit earlier than I expected the seeds may not make it to full maturity but I believe it should be okay we'll just have to wait and find out. That being said besides the bloody skunk being done just a few days early everything else seems to be right on time as described in plant profiles on company websites.👍 That's all for now thank you for your patience and attention and support and as usual feel free to leave any suggestions comments or questions and I'll do my best to get back sooner rather than later 😁

This was a fantastic plant to grow, and although it doesn't have the strongest resistance to mold, I think that if I were to grow it again I could avoid the issue. I am starting to figure out how to maximize my grow space! Come check out my next grow when you get a chance!

La fase de engorde sigue viento en popa y una fragancia dulce inunda cuarto de cultivo junto con unos atractivos colores. Día 70, Día del último Riego con fertilizantes y desde ahora serán 15 días solo con agua y enzimas para obtener un resultado más limpio.

The grow was a rollercoaster of highs and lows. My Blue Dream plant developed mold in the buds, so I decided to harvest my Banana purple punch earlier to stay on the safe side. The trichomes exhibited a good balance of amber and milky colors, but unfortunately, there was no time for a proper flush period. Banana Purple Punch encountered the most challenges among the strains. It struggled with aphids, nitrogen toxicity, and thrips, which affected its overall health and bud development. This strain seemed particularly sensitive to high nutrient levels, which likely contributed to these issues. Despite these setbacks, I’m hopeful for a decent harvest. Each problem provided valuable lessons on pest management and nutrient balance, which will be beneficial for future grows. Update 09.08. Today, I brought the Banana Purple Punch into my apartment for a trim session. Since I didn’t trim her wet, this took a bit more effort compared to the Blue Dream harvest. The buds are quite airy and fluffy, but they have a fantastic aroma. The vibrant purple color of the buds is stunning, and I can't wait to give them a proper cure and eventually taste them—I’m confident they’ll be delicious. Unfortunately, I had to discard a few buds due to mold spots again. The rich purple hues of the buds make it challenging to distinguish between mold and the natural coloration, but once they're fully dry and cured, the smell should reveal any lingering issues. The dry weight was 24 gramm.

Week 9 for Lemon OG by SSSC Ive pulled her apart to see if she gets some equal growth all the way around her. Still trying to stay positive for her to grow more😂 Shes also going to be moved outdoors today likely into some shaded area as its been so hot outside lately. Lets hope her transition goes well.

Tag 60: Ich gieße die Pflanze ab sofort ohne Dünger. Aber ob ich die Dame ernten werde steht noch nicht fest. Sie sieht gar nicht gut aus, der Geruch ist nicht so gut 😒 Tag 67: Ich werde diese Pflanze nicht ernten, es lohnt sich nicht 😭

Weekly update on these beautiful ladies. They're progressing nicely and definitely starting to get close. The stacking they've done is crazy on the main colas. All in all Happy Growing.

Radical Juice Auto – Two Phenos, One Mission 🌱🔥 Still two totally different phenos here: One is small and bushy 💪 The other one is tall and stretchy 🌿📏 The small one shows some nutrient deficiencies, but I’ll leave it as is – looks okay overall 🤷‍♂️👌 What’s crazy? The buds on both are incredibly dense – something you rarely see with autos 😲🔩 Even the tall pheno is packing weight! Can’t wait to see how they both finish – follow along for the final stretch! 🌟✂️ Radical Juice Auto – Zwei Phänotypen, ein Ziel 🌱🔥 Es sind immer noch zwei völlig unterschiedliche Phänotypen: Der eine ist klein und gedrungen 💪 Der andere hochgewachsen und gestreckt 🌿📏 Der kleine zeigt leichte Mangelerscheinungen, aber ich lasse das jetzt so – insgesamt sieht’s okay aus 🤷‍♂️👌 Was wirklich krass ist: Die Buds sind bei beiden unglaublich dicht – sowas sieht man bei Autos selten 😲🔩 Sogar der große Phäno legt ordentlich zu! Ich bin mega gespannt aufs Endergebnis – bleibt dran! 🌟✂️
