dawgstar is in full flush still not ready just yet buds are huge and heavy the branches have gone weak and started to need support she's started to mature more over the last few days so should be within the next week for the chop scent is very strong but hard to describe not one iv smelt before should be interesting to try once finished not much else to say thanks for reading happy growing guys

Ya empecé esta semana regando con un litro un día si y un día no y alternando también los fertilizantes un riego con ellos y otro sin. Al poner le el led a la carpa pequeña para el final de la floración ha subido mucho la temperatura pero espero que aguanten.. creo que esta será la última semana que eche fertilizantes como lo veis?

He hecho varias podas para controlar el crecimiento de las plantas. Sirve también para hacer las ramas un poco más fuertes, porque es una variedad que tiene tendencia a crecer alta, fina, con ramas débiles.

Week 3 has commenced... started adding nuits, 10litres water with 20mil A & B Canna, 20mil Rhitz,.. had to dilute to correct the E.C level back down too 800-900, next feed will be between 900-1000 and son on... lowered my P.H to 6.3 and was good to go.. having slight probs with humidity staying in the low 30%, i think my extract fan is too strong for my 1.2m 1.2m 2.2m tent!, purchasing a fan dimmer next week hope this helps lower the power of my 6inch fan, other than that all going well for a 1st timer.. oh yes i topped all 4 plants too i was terrified but had to be done if i want that nice yield 💪

Week 26 november - 2 december 29 november - D7 flowering

Welcome to Week 3 of the Sweet Seeds Gorilla Girl XL Auto’s grow. It’s been extremely cold here in Canada this last few weeks and these plants are doing their best to survive- not thrive. Although they are healthy and happy, they are just not thriving like my previous Sweet Seeds grow from the fall of 2021. The temperatures are only a few degrees cooler than spring, summer and fall but the humidity is extremely low at this particular time of year- 20-25% at best. Without adding additional humidity via a humidifier, my plants are at the mercy of the dry Canadian winters. Week 3 did not bring the expected growth spurt experienced by the plants in my previous Sweet Seeds grow (the Cream Mandarine XL autos). I have included a side by side comparison photo above to show the massive difference in size between the two SS grows. It’s because of the slow growth that I have decided not to top these plants 👎🏼 I increased the water early in Week 3 to 2.1 litres per plant every 4th day (0.52 of a litre per plant per day). Hopefully these ladies pick up a little over week 4. Mom’s Tip for Week #3- To Top or Not to Top?… Topping is an simple technique used by growers to split the main stalk/stem into two separate stalks/stems. This allows for height control when growing XL strains, encourages lower branch growth creating a more equal canopy height and of course- creates two beautiful, big colas instead of one! But topping Autoflowers has long been the source of great debate so I’m here to clarify Mom’s Do’s & Don’ts when topping autos. Do top your plants if they are healthy, thriving and on track (growth wise) with other growers and any info the breeder’s might provide. Don’t top your plants if they appear unhealthy, simply surviving and behind/slow (growth wise) compared to other growers growing the same strain. Do top your Autoflowers between 3-5 weeks from seed or when your plants have grown as many sets of branches as you desire (usually 4-6 sets of branches or nodes). Don’t top your auto’s beyond the 5th-6th week as they are most likely going into full flower. Do top, prior to or very early on in the pre-flower stretch and don’t top too late in pre-flower or once budding has begun- it’s too late and you’ve missed your opportunity for this grow. Do top your plants if you know what you’re doing and you’ve got the right tools. Believe it or not, I use a sterilized set of nail clippers (dedicated to this job alone) as they deliver a clean, controlled, perfect cut every time. Don’t top your plants if you haven’t done your homework or you haven’t got the right tools. Many people use their fingers but I find they are too large and awkward for such a precise job. More than once I have missed (FIM’d) or taken one of the two baby branches that are supposed to be left behind or simply injured those tiny developing branch sites by accident. Do top your autoflowers if you are growing a large/XL strain in a small/short space. This allows the grower to influence/control the overall height of the plants and creates a more equal/level canopy of foliage and eventually bud. Don’t top your auto’s if you are growing a short, fast flowering strain as this can sometimes stall/stunt them a tiny bit. Some Autoflowers run such a tight seed to harvest schedule that they legitimately cannot afford any interruptions in their growing cycle so check the breeder’s info before you chop. Do have fun with growing your Cannabis and don’t be afraid to try something new. Don’t top your Auto’s expecting to triple your yield though. I have learned that it will change the shape and height of your plants and you’ll end up with less low level, larfy bud but your yields will be almost identical whether you top or not. ✂️✂️✂️

Ehy ragazzi qua tutto bene spero anche a voi lo stesso, le piante di anesia sono magnifiche! Profumi di agrumi della Red pudding e dei buds duri come la roccia! Ho dovuto provvedere a legare tutti i rami con del fil di ferro per sostenere il peso crescente delle cime, purtroppo si vede che all inizio del ciclo non avevo ventilatori etc per poter addestrare i rami in modo che diventassero più solidi e stabili, ora in vece il peso volume di queste cime mi sta piegando l intera pianta! Davvero delle genetiche eccezionali! Con dei profumi davvero complessi da descrivere e non vedo l ora che continuino a maturare per poi avere un finale "di erba perfetta definitiva"! Che purtroppo ancora nn ho mai trovato in circolazione una genetica degna di questo nome... Saranno forse queste di anesia?? Staremo a vedere! Buon 420 a tutti e buon anno nuovo! 😸💪😺🔥💨😎🌱🌿🌲🧑‍🌾💗

Seeing some initial plumping by FD 30 and even more in the current pictures. BBxGS - going strong and similar to previous plants of this strain. Grandpa's Stash - Loving the aromas. Except for 1 plant, definitely the fastest development rate so far Banana Hammock - The primary cause of the massive stink throughout my house, I think. Also develioping quickly. Overall, the plants are healthy. Some blemishes here or there. Had some trouble keeping up with RH, so I removed some leaves. I have been topping off the 3 hammocks and 2 bbxgs plants with plain water immediately following a fertigation. They were lookin too lush. I've done this 5-6 times over the last week and adding less than a 1/2 gallon to each. However, i think the night time temps dropping to 67-68F are the cause at this point and i am seeing purple creep into leaves not a toxicity. Have had some minor tip paling on 1 of the hammocks for at least 7-10 days, but it never progressed. If i get some exotic colors in these as they progress, i don't think this is necessarily a nute-related issue at this point. I upped K ppm when i initially saw it, but only slightly. Think these plants are just on the dark side. Thinking these will have dark purple leaves like my Dinafem OG Cookies grow. Even so, will continue to dilute just in case on the darker plants and cease doing that if i see a hint of deficiency. While trichome production has been great from an early stage of flower, I've been a bit disappointed by it lately. The ethos plants seem to be lagging a bit, but also seeing it on stems and petioles. The bbxgs plants continue to cake it on. I don't smoke stems, petioles or leavs, so it isn't a major concern. All that matters is the aerial density of trichomes on the calyxes. I'm sure they'll be okay. The smell is really intense for the last week. My house smells like it is harvest day, every day. Love it! Climate pics added / update - You can see where dehum settings change at end of day. It can barely keep up when plants are trasnpiring. I had to remove leaves in order for it to maintain 50% during lights on. Temps are consistent as long as outside weather isn't unusually warm. Like I've said before, probably operating a bit too high in VPD, but concentration of fertilizer is reduced slightly and the VPD at the leaf, where it matters, is probably a bit lower than these readings. Probe is 6" under canopy and would be more accurate if placed in the middle of it. Night time VPD used to be equal or even a bit higher before i started trackign this stuff. I've got that flipped back to normal, but no idea if that is a benefit or just my own OCD. According to what i've read, it shouldn't be more than .4 kPa below daytime VPD. At least that part has some research behind it as to why. A week of tweaking behaviours and settings at specific points in time has lead to as consistent of an environment as i'm going to get relatiave to what i'm willing to invest (time/effort). The night time graphs are an hour short because they are of the day of this update. Close enough for display purposes. I will make a spreadsheet that will link to the exported date file of the probe at some point. For now the graphs in the app are good enough. I want to collect a lot more data in future. Start to figure out just how impactful some of this is or is not. Ambient weather outside, growth measured in multiple ways (height / number of nodes), incremental use of water/fertilizer electricity (already have a good guage of this) etc etc.. Gonna do a full statstilal analysis andn regression of various factors over time... come back in 10-20 years, LOL. Then again, may proclivity for laziness may be a factor too.

Esta semana, poca cosa a añadir, tan solo que continuamos como la semana pasada. Riegos alternos entre abono y agua, según tabla de fertilización de JUJU Royal by BioBizz. Hemos aumentado la potencia de extracción para evitar olores.

Will update throughout the harvest, drying, and curing. Great grow!!! I honestly could not have asked for a better first time growing experience. A few little bumps along the road, but nothing these ladies couldn't handle. Very citrus smell topped with a salvating creaminess. Will definitely keep this lady in mind for all future grows. Maybe at least one plant. I can't wait until I can try this girl. Thank you to Fast Buds for these awesome genetics and thank you to the Grow Diaries Cimmunity for all your help along the way. Happy Growing 💚💪🌱😎🌱💪💚

Todo normal 👌🍀

Hi everyone 👊🏻 thanks for checking in 😏, so we have started flowering this week on the bigger tent using the 2 Lumii 720w LEDs, we might or might not run into some hight issues well see… And we have the other 1.2 tent set up for the clones there under 1 Lumii 720w led delivered until I can another one sorted few weeks 🤙🏻 get them under that for a few weeks then get them flowering as well. Keep eyes open for progress 👌🏻

Royal Gorilla Automatic: Checked out some similar grow diaries and came to the conclusion that she's definitely in shock as she's lagging behind quite a bit. Last week I diagnosed the plant with some deficiencies (mg/mn/calc), possibly caused by the soil's PH being to acidic. To counter this, I started the week by topdressing the plant with some fresh soil, quite a bit of kelp meal (to raise PH and supply the plant with calcium and magnesium) and some worm compost. This time I watered the plant without adding lactobacillus. This seems to have been effective seeing as the plant has restarted growing . Buds are finally starting to dense up, trichomes are finally forming and the plant is starting to look healthy again. Still waiting on the smell though. Added some bone meal at the end of the week to try and get the buds to dense up some more. Solomatic: Plant is looking great, showing no signs of nutrient deficiencies. Her buds are getting quite dense and the trichomes are present and sticky as fuck. She has a nice haze like smell to her, which I really like. Although she isn't showing any signs of deficiencies I did add a tiny bit of kelp meal and worm compost at the start of the week, followed by some bone meal at the end of the week. Normally I wouldn't add fertilizer this close to harvest, but I have a feeling I can get the buds to dense up even more this way. Will probably give her another week and a flush before I harvest her. Stress Killer: The healthiest plant of the bunch, showing absolutely no signs of deficiencies or stress. The sweet smell is present, yet not (yet) overwhelming. Her buds are getting really dense and the trichomes are everywhere and super sticky. Added some fresh soil, some worm compost and a bit of kelp meal at the start of the week, followed by some bone meal at the end of the week. She should normally grow for about 10-12 weeks, so I'm expecting her to fatten up like crazy now. Can't wait to smoke this one.

Orion F1 Liquid Nutrients: The seedling is looking fairly unhappy. I will keep an eye on it. The plant has been given its first dose of Mega Crop Part B to introduce some more nitrogen, hopefully she will begin to grow some more and start greening up. The plant was watered when the pot was dried, to avoid mould and root issues. 8.5.25: The plant was watered with 1ltr of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.0. I added per litre; ♡ 1/4 TSP Mega Crop Part B ♡ 1ml Trace PPM: 656 PH: 6.0. ☆ Xpert Nutrients PH down, up to 1ml. ☆ Ecothrive Neutralise 1 drop per litre from the 1ml pipette, which is attached. This is my dechlorinator. Let's see how she goes. Thanks for stopping by 😊🍃✌️💚🤞

I'm finaly able to check in on her again. ### Day 9 ### She is looking good, a little short, but that should turn out alright. The humidity was only 30%, so I tried to raise it by spraying the walls of the bucket and adding a damp sponge. Watered her with 0.5l ph'd water and also lowered the light again to 40cm from the plant. ### Day 10 ### Looks like she is developing another set of leaves, keep it up girl! 👌Humidity is still not really on point, the sponge doesn't seem to help. Decided to cook some water and put the water cooker next to the vent, hopefully this is a solution. ### Day 11 ### Growing steadily, the new set of leaves are showing more clearly today. The water cooking seem to have some effect, but sadly it doesn't last long, maybe I should look for an air humidifier. ### Day 12 ### Decided to pull the trigger on an air humidifier. Because my grow space is naturally stabilizing to 30%, I don't really need a dehumidifier. This is a lot better then cooking water every few hours! 😛 ### Day 13 ### I will be away again till day 17. I gave her 0.6l of water with her first batch of food and then put 0.25l ph'ed water in the dipper so that she won't dry out. Also noticed that when the humidity was 65% her leaves where a little droopy and now at 50% they look ok. Will try to keep it at 55% while I'm away.
