This lady has been such a pleasure to grow. While she is a little tall on the main stem, I'm thinking my reward might be a great cola. She has really responded well to little effort and consistent water and nutes. Starting to throw off some resin and a bit of a scent.

She turned out to be a nice little plant with really nice buds even though she ended up being an auto flower

Day 3: One has arrived on 5/26 Day 6: Diagnosis: Slight Nutrient Burn Cause: Hot Soil Treatment: Cal-Mag and ph balanced water in week 2

Day 43ish today (The video is from today as well). Counting 12/19 as day 1 (above the dirt) for our Auto Amnesia. This plant has been crazy and super bushy. She didn’t get very tall..so not sure if that’s from the whorled phyllotaxy or if I maybe LST‘d to soon. It’s hard to tell from the way the stem formed but she is around 11-12inches. Either way she is getting covered in buds and smells good! We have a 1000watt spider light in there along with a few smaller ones, we have been doing 20 on and 4 off but two nights ago we switched it to 18on 6 off 🤷‍♀️🏼. Calmag and Fox farms bloom boost. I pulled down some of the lower branches today, try to get those to fill out more. I did a pretty big defoliation the other day but I think it might help to do it again? Growing is exciting and I can’t wait for summer to do some outdoor plants too 🤩 💨 💨🤞🏼🤞🏼 ✌️🏼

The girls are doing well and ready to bloom🍃🍃🍃

How is it growing, my fun(k) loving friends? ***INFO*** For more on my setup, why it was monster cropped, and how I made the canopy, see Germination page and subsequent weeks. They had 48 hrs of darkness, and the time has come to say goodbye to my friends. I thanked them again, spend some time with them, and under the sound of Amazonian shaman's harvest and healing songs (will post link), asked for their gifts, and apologized for taking their lives. I do this while in contact with the plants, touching, smelling them, observing every detail, no thoughts, just in the present moment. I feel emotional as I do this and remember how they were a companion, a source of distraction in a time of worry, sadness, and loss. How they already comforted me and kept me company in a time of painful insights about honesty, commitment, and staying true to myself. I thank them again for their wisdom and gifts, viva Santa Maria, viva Planta Maestra, may the mother of all beings give us healing and protection. And I proceed with the harvest as I visualize my intentions with every cut. Branch by bud laden branch is tenderly untangled from the scrog net, taken with a clean-cut and immediately hung upside down in the grow tent, which will now double as a curing and drying room. A couple more weeks and we will have the final cured and dried weight. More photos and movies will follow, this is where we are so far!! Thank you for checking in on our journey, all the love, support, and compliments were a true motivation, a very needed distraction, and guidance for me and for Sunshine. Big hug, lots of love and take care! ***UPDATE*** The final weigh-in is ready. I hadn't seen them in a week, because of my vacation. The humidifier I set up, had failed. So the grow had dried in 7 days, what I wanted to be 14 at least. Thankfully, its Sativa ancestry shines through, the smoke isn't harsh, the buds a sticky and smelly, no hay smell at all. We ended up at 246 grams, excluding a shitload of larf and popcorn bud, totaling at 310 grams all in, a first at a gram per watt for me, but for the Zambeza seed competition, I stated we would only weigh the quality bud. Overall I'm very happy!! Guessed weights in the competition: - @hashy : 0 grams - @MrHyde : 198 grams - @JamMAKEcan : 224 grams - @TrickOrTrip : 260 grams - @Greeneysgrow: 312.5 grams - @Ohey_fu_kyu: 350 grams - @Puffs4Pipes: 385 grams - @Hempkid : 605 grams - @DoDrugs420 : 621 grams TrickorTrip was closest!! Congratulations!!! I will be contacting you to get the seeds with you!! Thanks for playing to all the others and better luck next time, I will give away some seeds again!! Summary: Cost of setup: 850 euro Cost of nutrients and soil: 125 euro Cost of seeds: None they were cloned Cost of power: 150 euros in the power bill Total cost: 1125,-- for setup and this run. I smoke for medical reasons and it's used for ritual and healing purposes, never to be sold, as it loses its magical properties. Should I have to buy Gelato of this quality at the dispensary that I frequent, it would cost me at least € 15,-- per gram. 246 x 15 = 3690 euros. also, 49 car rides of 25 miles there and back, 250 euros in gas saved. Overall conclusion: I think we can call this a succes. Made back my investment, my cost per grow and we saved the environment. Thanks for all the love, tips and support! Couldnt have done this on my first indoor LED grow, without you!! Wish you were here to smoke a fat one, some good conversation about our hobby and now... I'm hungry.... See you on the next one!!

Final update: Very happy to announce that this dairy had won the sixth place best diary of August 2021. My prize came in yesterday and I'm very happy!! Thank you Growdiaries!! Thank you Fastbuds!!! Thank you all my grow buddies here for the love and support!! Hope to see you all, maybe at a future Growdiaries Meet and Greet? Wouldn't that be a lovely idea, per country and a yearly one on a different continent every year? The Growdiaries Conference. Would be a great Hemp growers fair... I'll keep dreaming and light another one... Big hug BioBuds

Week #14 GSC By Kannabia seeds Week #14 GSC week #3 Flower This week she continues to flower her buds are dense and tight she getting nice trichome coverage.

Week 1 Day 1 - 8/12/2023 1st Water change Day! Such a special time it is when you remove the little bit of Nutes that you gave them as an appetizer and you give them their first real meal. Added 39 Gallons of Water to my system SILICA= .5mil/Gal = 19.5 = 20mil Root Drip = 1mil/Gal = 39mil Cal Mag= .25mil/Gal = 9.75 = 10mil FLoraMicro= 3.0mil/Gal = 114mil FloraGro = 2.0mil/Gal = 78mil FloraBloom = 2.0mil/Gal =78mil ORCA= .5mil/Gal = 19.5 = 20mil Week 1 Day 2 - 8/13/2023 Everything is looking good the roots are making thier way to the water and the new grow is looking nice and green. Week 1 Day 3- 8/14/2023 Everything is right on track, they are looking beautiful and in the praying postition all leaves happily lifting towards the light. Week 1 Day 4- 8/15/2023 Looking beautiful today and looked like she could use her first haircut.. gave her a TOP off. Roots are laying in the water everything is looking right on track.. Week 1 Day 5- 8/16/2023 walked in and the humidity was under 60.... ohh noooooo.. So I added 2 humidifiers to the tent and attached them to my InkBird controller which is set to 62. She had roots nicely in the water.. this grow is on!!! Week 1 Day 6- 8/17/2023 Humidity was a little low this morning, so I refilled the humidifiers. Other than that, the temp looks great, the PH looks great, the PPM looks good the plant is in the praying position and all damage from the little drowning seems to have been fixed. Happy Happy. Week 1 Day 7- 8/18/2023 Yay.. week 1 in the books, roots in the water growth has started first hair cut given and both side nodes are growing. Everything is looking good and on track.. A lot better than week one of the last grow when I had them drowning week 1. Really excited on how this grow is going to come out.

Tag 7 - Ende der 1. Woche. Die Pflanze wurde bisher nur mit Wasser besprüht.

Trichomes are turning milky, Final flush soon 💪🏻💚

Day-1 put 41 blue dream seeds which i beleive are non gendered autos into pellets to grow as backups, I am primarily trying to grow a white widow autoflower from crop seed kings and 3 of a peyote strain unspecified gender and flowering style. Day-2 humidity and temperature are sitting at 98up to +100 and 23-31 degress celsius will be leaving top more open after about 6 today to lower humidity just wanted it cranked up for a day or so Day-3 things are looking good many seeds are starting to show taproots between a quarter inch and five eights of an inch popping through the bottom of the seeds. Day-4

Flushing this week with pH water for a couple of days and using GH flora kleen the last two days. She smells something amazing.

An extremely vigorous girl performing well to this point in hydro. I did a bucket change out week two of grow and honestly hasn't needed any additional nutrients other than topping with fresh RO water w/cal-mag. I topped her beginning of week 4 and now as of this writing gave her a defoliation at base of plant for aeration and applied a bit of LST. We'll continue to monitor ph daily to minimize potential swings. Midweek 4 update - Top off about 3/4 gallon of ph'd (5.5) RO water w/nutrients and cal-mag at a range of 625-630 ppm. TKO just continues to impress me a hydro newbie, but impressed non-the-less. There is approximately 24" of vertical grow space remaining, so the SCROG net is going up, which means the other struggling 5 gal hydro bucket with Ethos Punchberry Cookies will have to move to the 3x3 tent. I'll move two 3 gal Gelato strains into the 2x4 AC Infinity along with the TKO and prepare for final week or two of veg before flipping to 12/12.

Big yielder

Just been chopped toon al the lower branches off and put them away separate but will update on the total yield

July, 1: flushing to lower EC. Today i fed them with 1/2 of the snoop's premium nutrients bloom and the other half with snoop's premium nutrients grow, following the recommendations of the product. Also i incorporate Genesis from Agrobeta (last pictures). Again, don't pay attention to the plants in the small pots, i will do another diare for them because they are one week younger (this is why i will keep the fotoperiod of 18 hours one more week) It was too late for use the nem oil, and for the moment it's not necessary. So, i dont used it in the 4 week like i said. July 3: Today i trimed the lower leafs. Maybe it was too late, but i just cut the leafs that were really low and looking not that good. July 5: This is my first time growing anything, I'm super excited and i think they are doing it great jaja because i don't have any experience, so i can't compare it. Anyway, i think they look fine 😊 I can't find snoop's premium nutrients bloom in GrowDiares, but you can see composition in the last pictures 😊

The girls are starting to wrap up their cycle. I have been watching the trichomes closely, and we are getting very close
