Hello friends and followers, Welcome to my weekly update. 3/3-9 This has been a good week for learning. 1) Autos do not tolerate high stress training. Don't do it unless you are sure of yourself. I topped too late. This reduces yield, stresses the plant and delays harvest by a week. 2) Too much of a good thing is not good. My Teapot gal has a copper excess (I believe) and unless I take her out of the copper pot, she will continue to be stunted. Everyone needs a bonsai in their garden, so I'm going to grow her out. 3) Know your plants. Other than Zkittles, my grows have been a 4 plant variety using only 1 seed per strain. Without a comparison, you don't know what to expect. I have looked at other gromies gardens for appearance, size etc. Everyone grows differently with their multitude of nutes and high-tech equipment that it's fair to say that I have to base any improvements in my grow only on what I have done in the past. Let the stacking begin; we are off and growing buds. RQS says harvest 70-75 days or 40-45 days of flower. My calculations – harvest of T3 will be April 13-18 and T2 15th-20. Based on the size of my gals, and the number of bud sights, I’m only estimating an ounce between both plants. This is one time I hope I’m wrong. For these Titans, I water 1- 2 liters every other day. Most of T2s (teapot gal) water (1ltr) runs thru to the bottom catchment. I leave it on the towel to keep humidity around the pot. T2 grew .5 inches and now shines brightly at 3 inches, T3 is 7. I topped my T3 last week after she started flower. Big Mistake. Autos can be HST only in week 2 and never in flower. If you remember my week 2 stats, neither girl was over .5 inches tall and only T3 had the second set of true leaves. There wasn’t any growth to even begin training. Know your plant. Here I should have chsnged.my grow plan and.not done any training besides defoliation. T3 in the 3-gallon air pot is larger at 7 inches now. I did a bit more lst on T3 tying branches down. The leave branches are at the most an inch long with most smashed up against the main stem. I also put a separator between the top 2 buds to give a bit of space. The stem on T3 is thick for being so small. A solid ¼ inch. If this gal was growing to her estimated height of 60cm, the main stem would be over an inch, like my Apollo grow. I will say for sure the RQS F1s are strong and sturdy. With T2’s stretches her tippy top is just peeking above the copper pot rim. She is towering at 3 inches. I keep supplementing and foliar spraying with Cal-mag but the internodal chlorosis is still visible. Despite separating the copper pot from the soil with coco liner and coffee filters, I think Teapot gal (T2) has a copper deficiency. ✅️ Slowed Growth, ✅️ Fewer branches ✅️ Internodal Chlorosis ✅️ Stumpy roots (I won’t see this until I harvest and reveal the root ball). I'll show pics at that time like I have with my other diaries. Given these RQS Titan are F1 hybrids and should be stable, I believe the height and the health differences are attributable to the copper wire teapot. They are in the same soil, same tent environment, same nutrient solution, same light, same everything except the growing container. As I stated in previous discourse, I expected the overall plant to be smaller than T3 simply based on the pot size but did not expect to see such size differences so early, not to mention the nutrient issues. Thanks for the likes and comments, I appreciate all the plant love💚. Have fun & love what you grow 💚 Sending love and light 💫 💫Natrona 💫 **************Sponsored Grow*************** Royal Queen Seeds is the first to off genuine F1 cannabis seeds. F1 hybrids are the future of cannabis genetics, offering unrivalled stability, vigor, and yields. They have eight (8) F1 hybrid strains including a CBD. Unlike regular hybrids, which can be created by crossing virtually any two cannabis plants, F1 hybrids are made by crossing two pure (also known as "inbred") genetic lines. The resulting seedlings not only grow bigger and stronger, but also maintain stable growth traits that result in a uniform crop. I would like to express my sincere thanks to @James at @Royal Queen Seeds for giving me this opportunity to grow their quality seeds. It was a hard decision to select the strain to grow; I’m excited to grow Titan F1. ==================================== Royal Queen Seeds Https://www.royalqueenseeds.com use Discount Code use **GROWERS20** for 20% discount Titan F1 stands out as one of the most potent options in F1 hybrids.

Gear up for a uniform, consistent crop that will thrive in practically any environment.

Day 51 today another three weeks to go possibly four got some weird blotches on the leaves not sure what they are apart from that all good smelling super fruity and pungent atm

Last week I neglected the fertigation beyond the low humidity all that delayed the first topping and leaf burned the most thirsty girls, by the end of the week I had already recovered them and succed topping, they are looking very healthy.

Hi Gromie's all going good, continue H.S.T training, nice flat canopy. Also started some new clones, experimenting took 2 & 3 branch cuttings instead of single stem, so first topping will give 4 & 6 branches. Veg tent set up. Daisy chained recirculating hydro (4) at back & up to 6 DWC pots in front. Lined pots with insulated mylar, has reduced temps around 5°c. Making D.I.Y. DWC system for .

She has finished her stretch and is now full of buds and the stacking is remarkable. A beautiful strain She really responded to the bloom nutrients

The start of week 6 and I welcomed some buds Roth sigh…i really want get to start ripening so i will sacrifice a few more buds if that's what it takes.

Running 4 autos in the same aeroponic system isnt ideal as 2 of my plants need to flush this week.. while the other 2 still have about 2 weeks again... its all good tho.. id take it out an flush them individually before harvesting.

Llegamos al final, este apartado lo finalizaremos cuando probemos la yerba de momento colores rojizos y azulados, huele como a gas junto un transfondo dulce...una pasada merece la pena probarla!⛽🔥

Week 9 (aka day 63) According to the strain report, today would of been the day of harvest (if perfectly grown) Since I am not a master grower, it appears she needs more time. ha She is coming along great though! Super frosty and the flowers along the stems are starting to pack on weight. According to other grow diaries I've read, the harvest day will probably be in one month 3/3/21 (12 weeks total) If you notice my tent is a bit crammed, that's the only thing that's not ideal lol I am watering every three days with 6.0 phd water with 1 tablespoon of molasses and 1 teaspoon of SuperNova mixed into a gallon or more of water. Please let me know if you have any suggestions/ questions/ concerns. I am getting excited about harvest day! It's not to far away :) Wish me luck in the end stretch! lol Happy Growing everyone

Upgraded to "Kingbrite LED 320W QB288 Samsung lm301h 3000k LED grow light" direct from Alibaba!

Up to now they looking pretty good and strong, even tho some of the plants are not as dense and is maybe a bit late to date with the other ones. Ill have to give them another 1 or 2 other weeks until harvest. The trichromes look preety good even tho.in the picture dosent show well. They starting to consume less water and the leaf colour is starting to fade slightly .

29.09.: Da es sich langsam dem Ende neigt bekommen beide nur noch Wasser zu trinken. Leider ist mir bei näherer Untersuchung der G41 aufgefallen, dass sie im oberen Bereich naher der Lampe Bananen ausgebildet hat. Ich hoffe und vermute, dass noch keine Pollen freigesetzt wurde, allerdings wird es nur eine Frage der Zeit sein, bis ich eine übersehe. Es ist natürlich sehr schwer zu sagen, woran es liegt, aber ich hoffe, dass es nicht noch sehr viel mehr werden. Auf den Blüten sind bisher noch keine braunen Trichome zu erkennen, also brauchen sie noch ein wenig.

Video 2: 7 days (36~42) TimeLapse, 1 image each 60 secs @ 30 fps (I think there's a missing day in the middle, GoPro things...) Video 3: Prune Cam, working on main money maker Photo 4: Nutrients Used this Week -----WEEK SUMMARY----- I must apologize myself for the lack of pictures this week. I raised a bit the amount of water this week, anyway as you can see at the end of the timelapse video the babies are drinking much more now, and I'm not using enough water. Starting from the next week i will water in shorter periods alternating nutrients and additives. I finally decided to switch to flowering the first day of the next week, i want to see what size of colas can they generate from this size of plant. I don't wan't to try to create monsters at time, and i think my pots are small for too big plants i think. With this growing i'm just introducing myself to growing techniques and to indoor photoperiod strains. The day 1 i switched the lights to flowering mode, and as i said the day 5 (1rst 7th week day) i will switch to 12/12. -----WATERING CALENDAR----- 29/03/19 - 1.000 ml with all week nutrients @ 0.9 E.C.

A pesar de haber incrementado un pelín la cantidad de agua con respecto a la semana anterior, en el final del video timelapse se hace evidente como ya empiezan a beber bastante más agua y lo que les vengo echando ya no es suficiente, a partir de la semana que viene regaré cada menos días alternando nutrientes y aditivos. He decidido que esta va a ser la última semana de crecimiento, quiero ver que tal se forman la colas con este tamaño de planta, hay que tener en cuenta que las tengo en tiestos pequeños/medios y tampoco es mi intención crear monstruos por el momento. Con este cultivo simplemente me estoy introduciendo a las técnicas de cultivo y al cultivo de fotodependienes en interior. Con respecto a la luz, el día 1 he cambiado el modo de la luminaria a floración, y el día 5 (primer día de la semana 7) voy a hacer el cambio a 12/12. -----CALENDARIO DE RIEGO----- 29/03/19 - 1.000 ml con todos los nutrientes semanales @ 0.9 E.C.

Day 57 -

Grüße Growmies wir sind am ende der Reise angekommen!! WOW diese Farben und Harz bessatz kombiniert mit den Terpenen Bombe ist dieses Jahr für mich eine schönste Pflanzen. Selbst Thripse am Anfang der Blüte hat sie super verkraftet! Sie hatte am Freitag das letzte mal Dünger bekommen und am Samstag so wie Sonntag nur Leitungswasser bekommen. Ab Montag habe ich sie nicht mehr gegossen und 3 tage bis zur Ernte austrocknen lassen. Vom Anfang bis Ende war das ein Unkomplizierter der Grow mit super Ergebnissen und dass von Keimung bis Ernte in 63 Tagen ! Dank EPN(Krumme-Gurken)Mykoriza&Trichoderma Mischung mit Canna Terra Professional Plus Erde hatte ich ein aktives Bodenleben & Rhizosphäre das die Nährstoffe ausreichend verarbeiten konnte trank sie zur Spitzen Zeit in 24std 3l Wasser mit leichter/normaler Dünger dosis bei einem 6,2 PH wert. Zusammengefasst: Ein pflegeleichter Strain der sehr gut mit LST zu steuern ist und auf Temperatur Schwankungen von 10C°+/-zwischen Tag und Nacht in meinem Fall: 19std tagphase 27-28C°/40%-50% Luftfeuchtigkeit, 5std Nachtphase 17-18C°45%-55% Luftfeuchtigkeit mit leuchteten Lila Blüten Spitzen und massiver Harz Entwicklung reagiert um dass ganze noch mit neon Orangen Pistillen abgerundet. Bei ca. 950-1000 ppfd an der Spitze und ca 800- 850 ppfd an den unteren Blüten so wie die letzten 2 Wochen 2x 660nm Deep red Adlite leisten tiefer gehängt auf 15cm Abstand. Was deutlich den Harz bessatz verstärkt hat und die Blüten nochmal haben anschwellen lassen.

Broke a branch this week pretty upset about it was a large branch. Other than that everything is going well slight deficiencies here and there just gotta watch and correct them. We should jump into flower here in 3-5 weeks i will do my final trims in roughly 2 weeks 🤙🏻

Flushing in progress

*** RESULTS ARE IN *** Final results are in! Updated with pics of dry-trim and weigh-in :) Total yield was 228g of bud + 45g trim to be used for tincture. Total weight 273g / 9.75oz This was way beyond what I was expecting! Was hoping to get around 6oz from this grow, so the final result has absolutely blown my mind. But more importantly, it's a !!REALLY!! good smoke :) I've taken half oz off the top and put the rest into mason jars for curing, but even without a cure, the taste is good - sweet and creamy. The smell has come on LOTS through the drying process. When I chopped, the smell was fragrant, but not too strong. Now, you can smell it across the house and no mistake. It packs a punch too, very potent high - Can't wait to share with a few friends :) ********** Well, this has been an awesome experience for my first grow. Thankfully, these girls were super strong - they took a LOT of abuse in terms of high temps (up to 38C some days) and survived me being an idiot in the early days and not really knowing what I was doing. But here we are! Almost didn't want to chop them down..... but I got over that pretty quick. Total wet weight from both was 1339g (47.8 oz), of which about 150g is popcorn / larf. Super impressed with the yield :) My aim is to be self sufficient, in terms of yield being able to last long enough for another grow cycle to complete. With a rough estimate of 3 months per cycle, and based on my current usage of approx half oz a week, I would need this to result in about 6oz when dried, and I think this could be achievable. I will update the dry weight in due course. Can't speak to the quality yet. As tempting as it is to quick dry a test nug for a cheeky toke, I'll wait for it to dry properly, so I can really appreciate it. I've waited this long to harvest, another couple of weeks won't kill me. Also, I still have some of my current stash (hopefully the last weed I'll ever have to buy!). It's really difficult to be patient though, because DAMN it looks good. I'll give the buds a good manicure and dry trim when they're ready. It smells really good too! The smell is not overly powerful, it doesn't slap you in the face like some weed does, but it's delicious! Fresh, bursting oranges, with just an undertone of that unmistakable weed smell......It's like The Man from Del Monte is stood behind you in a queue, and he has an eighth of dank in his pocket that he doesn't think anyone else can smell. If I had to say I've learned anything along this journey, it's that it's better to be prepared. Research things that COULD happen and have necessary stuff on hand when you need it. Don't wait until that deficiency shows before ordering what you need and finding out it'll take 2 weeks to ship (fuck you, covid-19). And there we have it.... will report back once dried for the final weigh-in and smoke report. Stay safe, stay high :)
