Week 1: Transition to Flowering Welcome to the fifth weekly update of our cannabis cultivation journey in Germany! As we transition from the vegetative stage to the flowering stage, our strains—Pulp Friction, Cookies Haze, Eleven Roses, Poddy Mouth, Critical Lemon Kush, and OG Kush—are ready for the next phase of their growth. Before entering the flowering stage, we took a few important steps to prepare the plants for optimal flowering. Key Developments: 1. Pre-Flowering Preparation: - The plants were defoliated to remove excess leaves and improve light penetration and airflow. - Each plant was repositioned to ensure they have ample space and light exposure. 2. Growing Medium and Setup: - The plants are grown in a mix of living soil, coco coir, perlite, and clay pebbles. - The soil mix includes mycorrhizal fungi cultures to support healthy root development. 3. Watering and Nutrient System: - The plants are watered from the bottom using an AutoPot system, which provides a consistent supply of nutrient solution. - The pots are equipped with air domes connected to an air pump, delivering oxygen directly to the roots to enhance growth. Steps Taken: 1. Defoliation and Positioning: - Carefully removed excess fan leaves to improve light distribution and airflow within the canopy. - Repositioned the plants to ensure each one has enough space to grow and receive adequate light. 2. Watering and Nutrient Management: - Set up the AutoPot system to supply a balanced nutrient solution to the plants. - Ensured the nutrient solution is appropriate for the flowering stage, with a focus on supporting bud development. 3. Air Domes and Oxygenation: - Connected the air domes to an air pump to deliver oxygen to the root zone. - Monitored the air pump to ensure consistent oxygen flow to the roots. Next Steps: - Monitor the plants closely for signs of flowering and adjust the light cycle to 12 hours on and 12 hours off to initiate and support flowering. - Continue to observe the plants for any signs of nutrient deficiencies or excesses and adjust the feeding regimen as needed. - Ensure the AutoPot system and air domes are functioning properly to maintain optimal hydration and oxygenation. Stay tuned for next week’s update, where we’ll discuss the progress of the first week of flowering and any adjustments made to the care routine. Feel free to ask any questions or share your own experiences in the comments below!

Esta planta es una bestia en todos los sentidos.. con minimos cuidados preventivos, es literalmente del ataque de araña que he tenido en el armario, se centro sobre todo en las feminizadas pequeñas (ya controladas) y en dos autos (en proceso de control xD) a esta planta no le he visto ni una hoja mal, luego por bocachancla tendré los cogollos todos llenos de telarañas, pero a priori nada de eso, fuertisima y robusta como ella sola, aguanta las plagas y problemas de maravilla, esta y la purple sunset xxl son las que menos señales de sobre fertilización muestran! De verdad que con esta variedad en especifico, ya no se tanto si este fenotipo o en si la variedad que han logrado estabilizar, pero si fuese una feminizada SABE DIOS QUE LE SACABA SEMILLAS HASTA POR LAS OREJAS! Un pto Titán de planta xD Luego sobre ella, cogollos muy gordos, sin contar la purple sunset que va una semana atrasada con respecto a estas, es la de los cogollos mas gordos, muuuucha resina y un proceso de cultivo aparentemente muuy rapido... Quiero pensar que le queda un mes entero aun para poder hacerle chupar de las hojas al maximo para el lavado de raices... Pero me temo que en 2 semanas y media o así tenga que cortarla. Por si las moscas, entre el domingo y el lunes le hice el ultimo riego de fertilización, ya a partir de hoy o ya mañana por la mañana solo aguita con flush, enzym y calmag si toca.

This is the final week! My wife will be having a baby on 3/11/19, so I need to harvest on 3/10 no matter what. The trichomes are looking good. Mostly cloudy with a few amber and a few remaining clear. I could probably push this another 5 days or so, but since this is already a pretty heavy indica, I think this it great time to harvest, particularly given the circumstances. Really happy with the level of frostiness on these buds...they look super dank!. Can't wait to harvest and cure these babies :)

Firstly, the video of the popcorn bud from the mother plant, is showing what’s known as xylem sap from a process known as guttation. I never new that until this. Additionally, I am sorry to have missed out on so much documentation. I can talk forever about my plants so this will be short and to the point. Fast vigorous growth. Very resilient and hardy strain able to shrug of cold damp conditions, and freezing nights down to 32 Fahrenheit. The immune system seemed to be very strong. Never did I find any pathogens or even pests! A few but those little ghost spiders really helped out. During harvest, a thorough inspection resulting in surprisingly clean product! Finishing with large “airy” buds with fat bracts covered in trichomes. A rich musky cheese smell that surprisingly tastes of berries! I suppose I’m getting ahead of myself. But I was able to finish cure and smoke test the mom before harvesting the clone. Finally: this fast 50-60 day pheno will continue popping new bracts up to 90 days!!!! Or at least the mother in the tent did. Also, the dry weight is an approximation as I’m not finished with trim.

Day22: As said in Week3, I will not keep this perspective for the whole grow, as it doesn't really show the size of the plant. But it gives a nice view of how to top leaves grow :) The flashes that you see in the video is the humidifier. It pumps out vapour every hour for 15mins. So basically a quarter of each second of the video will be when the humidifier runs. Day23: I changed it, as I wanted to see the size as well. Day24 - Day28: Happy, healthy growth.

2/10: I watered today with about 3/4 gallon each, plus cal-mag, signal, bembe, armor si, a little open sesame, and their final dose of endoboost. The short one is budding up nicely, but the taller one is still stretching. The short one looks to be considerably more indica than the other. 2/11: Wife home sick today....postponing construction project to raise the lights. 2/12: Today, I tackled the project to raise my ceiling another foot. In addition to that project, I installed and hooked up my new AC Infinity 6" intake fan. It's pulling in fresh air from the soffit vent on the eave of the attic, and currently feeding the garden with 46f fresh air. I'm able to easily maintain daytime temps in the lower 70f's now. I am able to drive the nighttime temps as low as I want. The only issue is that the outdoor RH varies quite a bit, so I ordered a 30-pint dehumidifier to put in the top of the closet. I sprayed everybody with boomboom spray to try and mitigate the light burn damage that is likely to ensue. 2/13: The taller one is still stretching a little bit, but the 2-footer is just budding up. 2/14: I fed them today with about 3/4 gallon each including grow big, big bloom, tiger bloom, cal-mag, signal, bembe, humic acid, and I switched over from Open Sesame to Beastie Bloomz. Raised the lights another couple of inches. I did some training on them and defo'd a little bit. 2/15: Installed the new dehumidifier and rigged the continuous drain on it...works great. 2/16: I rotated the edge plants and removed some old leaves. I added another 22w 3000k 4' bar light under the canopy. 2/17: I rearranged the garden and defoliated a little bit. That's it for week 8-

Hi! In this diary I will grow 5 Sativa and Indica dominant Auto Feminized Strains: Sour Orange Auto Feminized Seeds (2 seeds.) By The Bakery Seed Co. Sour Orange Auto Feminized Seeds are a cross of the famous Sour Tangie and the Bakery’s in house Ruderalis. Also a 80% sativa dominant strain with 56 to 70 day flower period. Tested at 17% THC this genetic is highly stable and the Bakery are very happy with the results. This Auto Feminized seed can be cultivated indoors as well as outdoors but definitely prefers a slightly warmer climate to gain the best terpene profile possible. An uplifting effect with a sweet and sour aroma of tangerines. This auto flower seed is another great addition to the Bakery Seed Co’s Automatic Range Auto Critical Orange Punch Seeds By Dutch Passion. Auto Critical Orange Punch Seeds are Dutch Passions first Critical Autoflower. A cross of (Grandaddy Purps x Orange Bud) x XXL Auto Kritical Bilbo, creating an easy strain to cultivate. Expect a full life cycle of 75 days from sprout to harvest with impressive XXL yields. She thrives with 20 hours of light and can grow up to 70-100cm indoors. Certain phenotypes can flower for an extra week or so to gain the XXL yields! Sweet skunk aromas with a hint of rich Afghan hash. Sour Stomper Auto Feminized Seeds are an example of what careful selection can achieve with breeding. A fruity style pheno of the Sour Crack female crossed with the Grapestomper OG male from Gage Green then crossed with ruderalis by Mephisto. This 50/50 Indica Sativa hybrid has a great stretch contributing to large yields. Due to cooler conditions late in flower, this dense canopy can produce beautiful blues and purples. A great genetic for indoor and outdoor cultivation and all finished and ready to harvest in just 65 to 70 days. This hybrid is popular with extracts and has Grape aroma in bloom. Auto Lemon Zkittle Feminized Seeds are made from quality USA genetics. It is an Overall Highlife Cup Winner 2018!!! It has won 1st prize in Sativa category and also was awarded the Overall Highlife Winner Trophy. Lemon Zkittle Auto retains its high THC and yields even in automatic form. Due to the lineage, this hybrid is very simple to cultivate and a great choice for beginners. Fruit and skunk aromas combined with citrus flavors and long-lasting effects. 20 Hour light cycle is recommended as well as a minimum of 75 days from seed. Some phenos can take a week longer to produce the massive yields. Outdoors this variety can take up to 100 days from seed to harvest. With THC levels tested 21% as well as minimum yields of 400g/m2, this automatic hybrid is a great addition to Dutch Passion Automatic range. 24 hours light schedule, 90 percent humidity, trigger spray, no fertilization. 15th of August: Girls are ready for germination, tonight I will place the seeds to be in water at least for 12 hours :) 15th of August: I put the seeds in the water. 16 of August 2019: Seeds are placed between damp paper towel :) 17th of Augsut 2019: All good so far, They are ready to be planted tomorrow;) Day 1: They are in the soil. Hopefully they will come out soon :) 60W LED for 5 plants and the humidity is very high 98 percent. I give 5 ml water a day per plant and plus triggering to keep the humidity very high. All the holes are closed. Day 2: Non of them are out yet but I think by tomorrow it will happen:). Day 3: All out :) Day 5: Sour Stomper and Lemon Zkittle a bit slower but all of them grow nicely. Babies ❤️ Day 6: They are coming! Critical Orange Punch is growing very quick she is already 10 cm but the rest of them are 6-7 cm.

Well what did we say at the start? A diamond in the rough? All that is gold does not glitter? This Xtrakush try-out by weedseeds.site is turning out to be quite the surprise and joy, I might add. Consider this: - She had 2 weeks less of growing time - Had a potmate, removed last week cause it was male, see the hole in the grow. - This seed is 1,50 dollar, her roommates at 10 to 12 dollar a seed. - See the flower growth in one week. It is stunning. - She almost covered the hole of her roommate in a week. No defoliation, nothing. This soil and light combination rocks. I think Im proving at as we go here. Totally enjoying this grow and its ups and downs. Thanks again for reading up and all the likes guys!!

Day 126. Really day 90 from seed, part of Control Garden. Amazing how they Bulk, 3 weeks of veg only, crazy strain ! If i ever wanted anything from this strain, she was like "Let's do it ! " 8 sisters were amazing, now i used last two biggest beans and those had no training, no light, nothing, but went into absolute overdrive smells amazing, branches hard to hold while trimming ... Love them, maybe this time taste will be better, different nutes used ... Its so funny to hear branches slowly bending and cracking under own weight with no support left ... Amazing sound for grower ;)) Control Garden is an absolute success even with Strawberries hermie part .. Cure day. 250 g total. Insane for 3 weeks veg, one cola lost to budrot, no direct light and early harvest which led to a bit airy Monster Bulk buds, she could make 150 easy without budrot and one more week of flower ... Will update on night shift ;) Day Unknown. Decided to try out finally last girls for diary records, but ... After a month of intense cure buds got angly/pyramid type forms ... ????? Any idea ? First two weeks moved at least twice a day.
