After having my first plant that I gave hose water and sunlight be cut in half by a caterpillar, and my first indoor plant to get botrytis. This has been my first fully successful harvest and I couldn't be happier. Been listing to all of the GFYH podcast with Rasta Jeff and learned most of the steps through listening on repeat at work. This plant is very fun to grow, it will naturally fill it's canopy without much LST and occasionally topping. I have no complaints about the nutrients, mostly using FoxFarm items, the trio is nice and I can see the difference when I pushed to far either way with them, the plants would respond pretty quickly and I could fix and possibly compensate for the mistake and they would bounce back like nothing. Not having experience with other brands I'll say that I am happy enough to keep it as a constant variable for my personal refinement in becoming a better grower. I plan to continue growing this strain for a while so that I can have a way to see my improvement, and I will likely make another journal after at least a couple harvests.

Hit my 20-25% initial dry back. They’re getting 3% or 30 mL every 15 minutes until rolloff between the first one to two hours and then will monitor The dry back Trying to aim for 10% by tomorrow morning So every morning I’m hoping to hit a 10% dry back and working on wrapping them up with 3% Until I get a decent amount of runoff nothing crazy 10-20% of my ramp up total feedings

Wow 😲 I was thinking this was going to be a total runt. As if turns out I am starting to think of it as having a lowryder auto. I know I know 🤣 it's not a lowryder. She's actually a Northern light crossed with Big Bud Auto from Seedsman. This little lady was barley 3 weeks old when I noticed her transitioning to flower. I was about to pull the plug and decided otherwise. I mean what could it hurt to grow her out. Anyway she's more than doubled in size and her bud sites are well formed, stacked up and just looking good. Question? Would it be better to turn my 250 true watt down and move the light closer?,or run it full power and set it higher ?

Picking the odd leaf off but it's pretty much just doing its own thing other than having to feed her . She smells really nice with lots of bud sites and has some visable trichome production now .

Apr 20: They hanging out at 65% rh and 65F.. Going for 7-10 day dry… No wet trim, cut plants in half and hung… Very happy with density and resin production… Can’t wait to jar and test in 2-3 weeks… I feel comfortable with this strain, I think it’s time to move on… Really wanna run some Mephisto seeds….

My other grow was growing into the light, so I had to switch them. This light doesn't have the greatest coverage, but it had to be done. The humidifier is still down, and I'm going to have to move house with it on one of the coldest days of the year, so this grow does not have everything going for it. Smells strong, like candy apples and the buds are getting very dense.

---GENERAL COMMENT--- Girls are at day 4 technically, but i like to update Sunday always, so keep that in mind, is 1/2 a week now. From germination to soil emerging took 3-4 days, no issues at all. 100% germination rate from multiple breeders till now. I will try my best to do a stress free grow again, so will grow mainly naturally. ---RQS EASY BUD--- Ironically the Easy bud is developing better and growing faster than her sister. ---DAY 10 UPDATE--- Over some days she got volume, just started to use RECHARGE, and wow, that thing works, 48H you could tell something is different, since watering with it the stem is thicker and is growing more vigorous, lets see how it will impact overall! ---DAY 14 UPDATE. WEEK 2 FINAL--- This is the last day of this week and this girl is absolutely amazing, she grew a lot, showing already the intension of shooting up more stems, i'm very happy with her, it has been a delight to grow, response in very good. Voodoo juice is of by now, will keep the recharge maintenance every other watering as i'm loving it. Feeding program will start soon!

Everything is going well with our big girl, switched to ph treated tap water which seems to be working well. It comes out of the tap at 7 ph and around 80 ppm. I have used lemon juice to get it around 6.86 ph after mixing in my nutrients. 2/11- Very hard to water big girl as she seems to be drinking really fast and theres not much room; i'm having to water everyday. Not sure how long i'm going to veg but starting to worry about height for flower in my 3x3

Die Woche 4 der Blüte ist rum und die Ladys duften einfach hervorragend💚 allen vorraus die GorillaZkittlez, wahrscheinlich auch die, die zuerst fertig sein wird. Gefolgt von der StrawberryBanana, die auch schon schöne Buds entwickelt. Die "letzte" im Bunde ist die GorillaAuto, allerdings sieht sie so aus als würde bei ihr am Ende am meisten bei rumkommen. Bei der StrawberryBanana musste ich mittlerweile zwei Triebe entfernen auf denen Mehltau zu sehen war. Sie ist auf jeden Fall die empfindlichste von allen. Blätter waren bisher nur wenige befallen. Die wurden aber auch direkt entfernt. Ich bin mittlerweile über die gesunden Teile der Triebe und den Blättern mit Neemöl rüber und hab dabei so gut es ging die Knospen verdeckt. Bisher gab es keine neuen Anzeichen von Mehltau. Die StrawberryBanana braucht also etwas mehr Aufmerksamkeit. Die GorillaZkittlez kommt sehr gut mit milden und feuchten Tagen zurecht und entwickelt sich sehr schnell. Ich denke das sie in ca 2 Wochen bereit zu Ernte sein könnte. Sie riecht auf jeden Fall schon zauberhaft. Zu große Fanleaves und Blätter die Triebspitzen verdeckt haben werden bei allen Ladys regelmäßig entfernt. Ein minimales Lollipopping haben die Ladys auch bekommen. Düngen/Gießen: Tag 43/22F gab es zum Wasser nur 2ml/L StickyFingers und 1ml/L PowerBuds zum Wasser und etwas ph- um auf einen ph-Wert von 6.7 zu kommen. ________________________ Durch immer wieder mal Regen und recht mäßigen Tagestemperaturen von 18-22°C musste recht wenig gegessen werden. Ich hebe bei allen Ladys die Töpfe an und entscheide beim Gießen wieviel jede Pflanze braucht. Tag 47/26F war recht warm und alle Ladys brauchten wieder ordentlich zu trinken. Hier gab es zusätzlich auf 5L Wasser: 1ml GreenSensation, 4ml PowerBuds, 3ml PureZym von Plagron, 4ml BioBloom von BioBizz als klein BloomBooster und 10ml StickyFingers von XpertNutrients. Tag48/27F gab es durch langsam wärmere Temperaturen wieder etwas zu trinken. Diesmal gab es auf 5L Gießlösung 4g BioEnhancer von GreenHouseFeeding, 4ml PowerBuds von Plagron. ____________________________ Möge uns die kommende Woche mit viel Sonnenschein begleiten💚🍀

Another great week for the Apple Betty girls. I have not seen a single deficiency, other than the odd yellowed or withered leaf under the canopy, typically due to lack of light. I will come through soon and do a defoliation of both tents to allow for more light to penetrate, and perhaps get a good push for some girthy colas 😋. I have lowered the temps a bit in the tents by controlling my lung room temps, and they are maxing out at 77 degrees and hitting a night time cool of about 70. I have also lowered the humidity to hover between 47 and 52 %. Hopefully will start to get some nice colours as they finish. As I mentioned before, when I water is when I like to get under the canopy and check the stems and leaves for anything that shouldn’t be… and typically once a week after watering I’ll wipe down the tent and sanitize any surface I can. There is no reason to get lazy, that’s how you get Pests, Mold, and PM. Happy Gardening 🇨🇦👊❤️

Not much for change this week. I think she is getting over the shock of the defoliation, lollipopping, and moving her back indoors all at the same time. As time is not of the essence, I'm only looking to get some good healthy buds from this plant. Also, she's my last grow for the year because it will be too cold to grow after this.

Dried the flower for 10 days, and got 184.9 grams (roughly 3.3 ounces per plant which is smaller than I expected, but it is what it is) Curing now and i'm sure the quality will be amazing.
