BIG BIG apologies to Heather from fast buds & to Growdiaries & anyone who follows. The past few months have been a massive struggle, not just with temperatures & growing weed but on a personal level. My wife has been very poorly & with covid and everything going on, it's put a massive strain on us all!! I've tries to maintain an active presence on Instagram but that's about all I've physically had time for. I've put this update together today, so far into the grow now it almost seems pointless. I lost my original Mimosa due to high temps & high RH. Moving into the attic at that time of year was a mistake. It has cost me a small fortune to keep things alive. I've had to purchase an air con unit, more fans & just more of everything to be honest. My purple punch is almost ready to harvest, any time within the next couple of days, followed shortly by Bruce Banner & Kosher cake. I wont be winning any awards for this Diary & I feel bad as I was supposed to be show casing what 420 Fast buds has to offer & I've failed...miserably. I hope you can make sense of all the pictures I've included....just a mass photo frenzy over the past few weeks. Thanks to everyone & all your comments. Wishing you all the best. One Love ❤️

Room is almost there Flood table coating was completed this week. Took forever to cure in the colder weather, but it is looking great now. Normally I wouldnt use this stuff because it is $200 per gallon, but since Im in the industry, these expired sample cans didnt cost me a cent and provides a much more durable, reflective, cleanable and puncture resistant alternative to plastic. Im very happy with the table overall, it cost me very little to build I installed the fan and carbon filter, moves about 750 cf per minute. Its a bit loud, but its huge, so what are ya gonna do? My dutch bucket pails are slowly being collected from my local coffee shop. I need 4 - 8 more. Ive got all the hardware to set up the watering system, so I will work on that in the coming week

Começando a flora

Alright, by now your laughing at me or just about will be. I’ve spent the past three nights obsessing over how to get my seedlings back on track from their stunted growth. Meanwhile taking care of the one plant that took off nicely. I trimmed up the spotty leaves again and removed all of the other plants from my aero garden into the LYKO. I left two, in very bad shape seedlings in there in hopes something got happen. Took the healthy ones and moved them in with the mama that’s doing well. I noticed their roots are red.. but not rotten. They look salvageable so I’ve cleaned them and added hydro guard in hopes to repair them and plan to add some rapid start root enhancer when it comes in the mail this week. I’ve cleaned the water and the entire machine before “repotting” into the Aerogarden. Everything looks nice besides the shit red roots. You can see in the good one that where I trimmed the node there are more waves coming in and new nodes already. I think we’re almost ready to top this one but I’m going to wait a bit so I can create a clone from the topping in a week or two. I also added a fan and moved my airstone into the Aerogarden. I got so upset I stunted these that I went out and bought new seeds as well and you can see my other diary germinating. Will keep y’all updated. Thanks for the support!!

I‘m pretty happy with These Girls. They Strech Fine and the flower now begins To get bigger. The only thing Im a Bit Confused about is the nutrition. The got Nearly Nothing. Just a Bit Heaven. And Bloom at the First week of flower. In Not Sure how To find the Right Rhythm, because they seem To get overfed fast.

Praying the warm weather holds out until October. I was told this strain take about 60 days in flower before harvest

Mild flushes last week. Day 54/ Day 1 of Flowering. Fed and light defoliation.

Second week of flower went well. The plant has over double the size at this point and we have early signs buds forming within the second week. Continuing to keep the light about 12 to 14 in above the canopy as the plant stretches. Plants are getting really bushy will prepare for a day 21 leaf strip to clear out the canopy and to allow for air flow while dropping humidity. Will also try to implement a second scrog for support.Currently The single seed Sent from khalifa for grow Contest is tallest pheno in the tent and healthiest looking that pheno will show on the top right in any of the disclosed pictures and videos.

Se pegaron gran estirón y la floracion ya es evidente en todas las plantas a excepcion de lsd 25. El calor ya es altísimo debido al verano y se empieza a notar en las hojas superiores, sin embargo, todas las plantas tienen un aspecto sano.

Gather 'round, because it's time for the grand finale of my Tropicana Cookies Auto journey. Week 10 has arrived, and boy, oh boy, this gal has been an absolute delight from start to finish. Let's dive into the final chapter of this epic adventure! I harvested my lovely lady at day 69 from seed, and let me tell you, it was a celebration of beauty and abundance. Picture this: a majestic all-girl harvest, suspended upside down for a glorious two-week drying extravaganza. At a temperature of 60 degrees Fahrenheit (15 degrees Celsius) and a relative humidity of 60%, the drying process unfolded like a symphony of perfection. Now, let's talk trichomes, shall we? Oh, those glorious little resin factories! This Tropicana Cookies Auto has blown my mind with the sheer amount of trichomes it boasts. It's like a frosty wonderland, sparkling like a million tiny diamonds. I've never seen trichomes in such numbers, shapes, and colors before. It's a trichome party, and everyone's invited! But let's not forget the benefits of the drying process. By allowing our precious buds to dry slowly and evenly, we're enhancing their flavors, aromas, and overall quality. It's like fine wine, my friends, getting better with age. Patience is the name of the game, and trust me, the reward is worth every second of anticipation. Now, let me take a moment to give a big shout-out to @Fast_Buds. They've truly outdone themselves with this Tropicana Cookies Auto.

Day 50. Its last day for Autos outside, tonight indoors will be a bit less crowdy ;)) They stretched like hell, but i hope to take under control indoors. Whiteys are smallest, but fastest to flower, Diesels are huge and in full bloom, Lemonade OG still in preflower mode, but they will be massive ;)) RQS pot is pure pain. Cookie is duckleafing, curling, now fading, they didn't liked that training for sure ;))) Even Gorilla bit unhappy and still very bright. Day 52. Change of plans again... One girl indoors went hermie, so till all run is finished and tent properly washed, can't bring any plants in . Cookie is started to make leaves like rocket not weed ... pure pain in the @ss......

Day 91 - Getting very close to the end now. Some parts have been harvested already when I see an amber trichome. Those are in the dry net.

So, this week pretty much just buds fattening. I think there is a problem developing with either pH or phosphorus deficiency. Got a pH test pen on the way so should find out what's going on soon. Leaves staring to look a bit off, but bud growth is solid. Tested pH and it looks good at 6.9 so I'm gonna increase bloom nutes cos it could be phosphorus or magnesium.

The spider mites have done alot of damage to my garden, i got rid of most of them though but just a little too late. Also the plant i took out of the tent started drooping and yellowing very fast so i flushed it but don’t know what caused it if anyone has any tips let me know thank you & btw am i the only one who had his white widow turn purple? I’ve never seen it before

Plant is showing some trouble, didn't knew yet what it was (typing this while in week 6). Values are average of the day.
