39 days since my little girl sprouted from a seed๐ฑ
Sixth week of growing my Auto Orange Bud ๐๐๐
Nutrients:
I use Advanced Hydroponics Of Holland nutrients - three basic components, always according to the table for vegetative growth ๐ -
- Dutch Formula 1 Grow - supplies the plant with substances necessary for the perfect development of roots, stem and leaves; intended for the growth phase ๐พ
- Dutch Formula 2 Bloom - contains a large amount of nutrients needed for rapid growth and development of fruits, provides energy to the plant; intended for the flower phase ๐ธ๐ฟ
- Dutch Formula 3 Micro - increases oxygen intake, improves plant immunity, ensures better absorption of nutrients; intended for the growth and flowering phase ๐ด
-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- --------
BioBizz Calmag - The special Calmag supplement was designed for professional and hobby growers who need to supply calcium and magnesium in organic quality to plants for a long time or immediately. 100% organic ๐ฉ๐ฉ and certified BioBizz Calmag product is made from calcium carbonate and magnesium sulfate supplemented with humic acid.
-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- --------
BioBizz Bio pH- is an organic pH regulator. Aqueous solution of citric acid, which occurs naturally in citrus fruits ๐๐
-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- -------
During the flowering period, I add Advanced Nutrients stimulators:
- Bud Ignitor (first two weeks of flowering) - flower stimulator ๐ธ๐ต๏ธ
I stopped giving it now
- Bud Candy - carbs for my girls ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ
- JUNGLE - ENVIRON X is a highly effective complex product
stimulate the formation of flowers. Contains no synthetic growth regulators (PGRs).
โข multiplies yield and increases product quality
In general:
Auto Orange Bud ๐๐๐ - She's the shortest girl in the tent so far, but that doesn't matter at all, she has really beautiful buds that grow bigger before your eyes and are covered in sticky white resin. She smells sweet. I believe that the harvest will be successful ๐๐
Training:
During this period, I usually do another defoliation and LST ๐๐๐
Light: Mars Hydro TS1000 The plants react effectively and the light is technically very well managed - I try to have 50cm between the light and the plants, so I move it up regularly ๐ก๐ก๐ก
See you soon ๐๐

Tottaly forgot to take some pics from the dutch passion strains this week... all I got is a group photo and short video!
Could have been a bit more hands on with the training but seems a like a nice and even canopy itยดs emerging ๐
Defoliated a bit and trimmed the lower branches.

Day 84
Starting to see some amber triches on the ripest spears of Red so the first round of chop should be a few days after Danksgiving weekend. Gotta get ready. Started flush on red, will likely stop hot nutes on white over next week. Blue exploded some great bud sites. Working on lollipopping yellow now that it bounced back

She grew another 10cm this week!!!
Slow and steady!
Looks like she is making some nice dense flowers, but we'll see in a few more weeks.
I note she is very bushy for an auto. Very similar to an Auto Purple Kouskush I grew a few months back! ๐ช

Checkout my Instagram @smallbudz to see the Small budget grow setup for indoor use, low watt, low heat, low noise, step by step.
25/10/2019 - First feed I gave her 0.25ml on 250ml of water of Biobizz-Grow, with 6.5ph.
26/10/2019 - Leafs looking a bit crooked, and some pale spot lets hope its not fungus. (gave her 100ml of just PH 6.5 water)
27/10/2019 - Feeding day, gave her 250ml water with 0.25ml Biobizz Grow, 6.4PH (changed feeding to once every 2 days with a plain water interval)
28/10/2019 - Started LST
30/10/2019 - Feeding day, gave her 250ml water with 0.25ml of each Biobizz - Grow,Bloom and Max, 6.3PH, added carbon filter and it raised the temps to 29c
31/10/2019 - A tad too much of nuts, little burn tip. (Sensi Seeds warned me but I still goofed it)

I got a very cool time lapse video of this plant bouncing back from its topping/ mainlining. I haven't feed with any nutrients I've been focused on balancing PH and feeding the soil with microbes right now to support the roots. The plant seems very healthy and isn't telling me she wants nutes yet! I have 6 colas now but I might go for 10-12 im not sure yet! Im so excited about how she is growing and im hoping to cut a few clones from her to keep these good genetics!
I have a ExHale Co2 bag in the tent its properly propagating and producing co2 at this point. It states that it supply up to 1500 ppms of C02 but I have no way to measure it. I place the bag at the bottom of my tent (because c02 is heavier than air). I have a box fan on low and no ventilation running in my tent. This is so I can maintain higher moisture levels in the tent and also because I don't really need ventilation these plants don't smell. By turning off the ventilation I have significantly higher moisture

I had a close call with the Purple Berry Kush. I was setting up another timer and somehow, left them with no rest for 48 hours. I only noticed when the performance spread between two tents emerged.
Heat - light was too high- they looked wilted and tired
Indica is sensitive to too strong a light right, i saw what looked like the start of nitrogen deficiency, so i popped them into the 20l grow bags. gave them water no nutrient that day. then back in line as normal following day- full nutrient cycle. they,re back now
seedlings for the other diary looking strong and healthy. couple pics, nothing exciting, excuse the nutrient splash on the birthday cake :D- hope everyone is well out there.

Just in drying but she smells strong, looks drenched in resinous crystals and I just canโt wait to get her dried and cure. Beautiful plant with nice sized buds. The smell is the strongest Iโve grown like an earthy pine smell full of crystals still curing but my tester blunt put me to sleep but not as smooth as Iโd like yet so back in the jar! Full smoke report will be up after a full cure. After a 2 week cure the taste is phenomenal and old school flavour that brings back memories, earthy notes with hints of liquorice tastes a lot like a good quality hash. Nice smooth smoke that packs a punch. Definitely canโt beat the OG strains. The high creeps up on you but not to intensely and lasts hours!

The plant is now becoming more and more mature, I have started to discontinue the fertilizer and only water with CalMag fertilizer, and very little at that.
The color of the leaves now clearly changes to purple. The smell is sweet but still slightly citrusy.
The plant will now be harvested in about 10 days.
Ph value, Dli and ppfd still the same
Flowering day: 56

Week 5
The soil started to stabilize, the plants are less stressed and the production is satisfactory.
Apparently the worst is over, I have watered every 2 days on average.
These strains are for approximately 9 weeks of flowering, soon HARVEST.
In the half of week 5, it was add 205W of Citizen and Epstar COBs.
TOTAL 565W.

Girls are on day 4 of being in their forever pots, 5 gal. I am a noob and over watered my plants, thus the curled leaves and I had a very small amount of mold on Dorothy's soil. Removed it with a spoon and did a good search for how often and where to water. Watered the whole soil, not just near the roots. I will be waiting until the soil is dry before watering going forward and I'm hoping the girls will get to 100 percent health. My grow tent comes tomorrow and they will be transferred into the tent with grow lights and a fan. Rn I have a basic house light on them which I'm thinking will stunt them initially. Hopefully the grow light brings the girls all the way to life I will update with them in the grow tent tomorrow. Also my 4th seed officially never grew a taproot, so RIP Sophia ๐ฅPlease leave any and all tips, as I am walking blind and depending on a few websites for my advice.

Day 80, 22nd of October 2020: 3rd week of flowering! Happiness she needs a lot of boost hard to keep up. She loves fertilization too much..... I mean before always craving for nitrogen now qould need more potassium and phosphorus hard to keep up. I also detect deficiency based on the leaves getting lighter and brown spots but I do feed her as much as I can really.
This week i have relised the first nice trichomes started "sitting" on the leaves as well and the pistils coming out nicely pre flowers forming. Let's go.

The plant is doing well overall this week! ๐ช
To handle a few fungus gnats that started showing up, I introduced nematodes into the soil and placed some yellow sticky traps, seems to be keeping things under control so far.
She's growing quite tall now, definitely stretching up nicely, but not really filling out much in width. A true lemony skyscraper in the tent!๐๐
