Yo community! A friend of mine just started a Legal Grow in Germany with his roomate under my Supervision, as it is now Legal to grow in Germany. So I thought about documenting this grow. I've been growing for long time now, but my buddy Bili is a complete newbee at this stuff. I am positive that this "is gonna be huge". We plan on growing 6 plants. Bili is gonna be growing 3 and his roomate also 3 plants. Of course Bili will only care for his own 3 plants and his rommate for the other 3 as it is regulated like that by law. It is Germany where everything has to be like this apparently. lol. This grow will be 2-3 Weeks indoors 51w with low cost 3x17 Watts 4000 k LED Bulbs. (3€ each) Those produce 2500 lumens each, about 147 lm/W 1.45 l pots for the first few weeks indoors. The plants will then go into 5l pots on the window sill until harvest. faced to the south. So far the seeds have been placed into water over night. tomorrow we will put them into the soil. They are all Automatics. Day 2: seeds soaked over night. about 16 hours. The Gelato are already opening their shells.. The others are still closed. All sinked to the bottom over night. We are now planting them into the Soil.:) We soaked 9 seeds. 3x O.B. 4x Kryptonite and 2x Gelato. After cutting the dome off the lamps and counting the LED's (81) it looks like these are 0.21w SMD 31lm per LED (manufacturer says 147lm/w). for bulbs really good little LED's. looks like these are cree 2835 J series or similar types. there are cree 4000k J types that are exactly 31lm wich would be exactly what each LED should produce. (2500/81). Plant in Soil Date was 05 june. 14:00 Today, 2 Days and 10 hours, (58 hours) after planting in soil The 2 Gelatos came to life:) and one Kryptonite basically 3 full days including soaking time. 08.06 at 1:30 is the beginning of VEG Day one We will give them 24 hours light. day 5 after waterglass. Berries still no sign of life. lamp is at 30 cm distance. no signs of stretching. At Day 5 Veg we located the berry seeds and put them into paper towel, cracked them open and scraped the shell. we have enough plants now but nothing to choose from in case a plant has weak genes. So we hope a few berries will make it. probably old Seeds.

3/2 I gave my plant its first feeding. Gave it about half a gallon of water with a PPM of 500. I also thought about topping my plant but am not really sure where. I am not sure what one is the top spot as this is my first time every growing. I also finally received my ACInfinity CLOUDFORGE T3. This has allowed me to get my Humidity levels more under control. I was okay before because of the dome but for the last week or so I have not had a domain and my humidity has not really be regulated. 3/2 A few hours later I said fuck it and just cut the plant where I thought the top was. I cut off a few lower fan leaves. Not sure If its too early to do it or not. 3/3 Finally got my ventilation setup. I am not longer venting into the room my tent is in. I now have the exhaust being vented outside. This has allowed for better temps in tent. I am not longer being baked alive. I have also noticed a lot more stability with my temps/humidity now. Temps are sitting at 78-80ish and my humidity is sitting around 60 percent. 3/5 I started LST as my gardening ties arrived this day as well. 3/6 Today I gave just shy of 1 gallon of RO/DI water with a pinch of Epsom salt. I was waiting off as I forgot to added to my first feed on the the second. After the watering I also saw my rapid rooter exposed as the soil seemed low. I think I didn't fill the pot enough. I also added some extra soil to top up the pot and make sure the rapid rooter was buried. I also collected my run off and checked its PH and PPM. PH was 6.2 and PPM was 863. Plant also seems unhappy this morning.

Hey fellow growers welcome back for week 8 update of my critical purple and pineapple auto grow! Not to much to talk about this week its been smooth sailing with these ladies this week🙏🙏 So the pot elevators that I added last week are freaking amazing! The extra airflow under the pots is helping them breathe and giving me peace of mind against root rot. So if you read last week it was a feed week. This week I fed 3 of 4 plants. As I'm still fighting a deficiency. All four plants are 56 days old total today! 3 of 4 are week 3 of 🌸 and 1 is in week 5 of 🌸 10/25/21 Critical purple #2- Started flushing😁 Water Ph 6.2 175 Ppm 72.3°f Other plants 3ml cal mag 2ml micro 4ml bloom 1/2ml ph down Ph 6.33 658 Ppm Solution temp 71.2°f Still feed/Water every four days at 1gal/plant. I'm going off of pot weight mostly but it seems like a gal every 4-5 days and they are happy with it. Critical purple #1- So this lady is packing it on quick and starting to put off a luscious aroma like her smaller sister! She was slow in veg but has now passed both pineapple auto's in flower! This plant has literally been sitting in the back corner all quiet minding its own buisness just thriving. I do believe she has finished growing as no change has occured in height since last week. Measured 28" tall Critical purple #2- This shorty is developing nicely! With this being this little ladies 5th week in 🌸 The aroma this lady is throwing out is powerful!! She is showing a few amber pistols but trichomes are clear and still developing I'm still thinking about two weeks out. That's why I have begun flushing this lady! Guys I'm so excited this will be my first finished plant of both grows going and first plant I've ever grown to even flower! With this being said u know it she has become my 🌟 of the week!!👏👏👏 No change in height this week measured 18" tall. Pineapple auto #1- So last week I measured 32" tall well I was wrong I measured the wrong bud this plant is 39" long making her my biggest plant ever to date! She seems to be going rather slow in flower like not packing on bud as well as the others. How can the biggest plant have the smallest flowers and the smallest have the biggest flowers?! Hopefully she will come around. She may have stressed with the branch snap. Pineapple auto #2- This lady is my 😈 again this week. She is still fighting a magnesium deficiency. Even with the cal mag she is still spreading to other leaves. I did recover her from nitrogen deficiency. Even with the deficiency she is still producing bud nicely. Measured this lady out to be 37" tall. I would like to Thank all the growers for taking time away from your own beauties to read about mine. I really do enjoy my time on here viewing your diaries and learning with you all. I just have a passion for this and wanna do the best I can for my ladies. So if you see any improvements that I can make or suggestions u wanna make, or even just to say hi hit me up! Well till next week Best of luck and Happy Growing!😎🌱💚💪💪 🌟Psss...

Day 85: what’s good guys? She’s looking and smelling great, temps are okay sitting at 25 for the most time and going down to the lowest of 16 at night. Humidity is sat at 30+ which is okay for her but not so great for my seedlings. I have a 400w hps bulb on the way so I’m hoping this will stop so much heat eating at the moisture. She still looks like she’s putting it on a bit but I think I can see quite a few cloudy trichomes and some ambers and a few clears so when she dries out next I’ll start feeding ph balanced filtered tap water for a week and see how the trichomes look. A lot of the fan leaves look like they’ve got a nitrogen deficiency maybe a slight bit of calcium too but being so late in flower I don’t think I need to worry about it. Very excited to see the changes as she finishes up! Any advice is greatly appreciated! Stay safe happy growing😎🍁 Edit: I’ve now started feeding her plain water. I gave her 2L of filtered ph 6.1 excited to see how she reacts to it.

This week has been one of great gains in both size and vegetation we have seen a vertical leap in two plants that is astronomical almost 4 inches in a week! Had to do some pruning to expose new bud and a little bit of low stress training on to plants to see if we can expose light to the underside and perhaps get a little more love out of our lower buds The stalk size on almost all of these plants is almost as big as your thumb but on one it is actually relatively skinny that is the one we’re doing the low stress training on we just started the low stress training and it is taking very well to it One of these plants is extremely dark in color on the vegetation and has typically about 11 fingers per leaf! Not sure what that means yet

Such an easy strain to grow for a beginner like me! She handled ph problems like a boss. Humidity swings? No issue. Very very pleased with this strain and super excited to try her. I'm just starting to see some light amber in the trichs. I'd like to go for more of a stoney couch lock so about 2ish weeks I'm saying until the chop

What’s up fellow Growmies! Got another exciting strain from Canuk Seeds... Cement Shoes! Yep, gonna be sleeping with the fishes. Lol First time trying this strain but so far it’s been a breeze. I kinda took a break from documenting my grows because life got a bit hectic for a bit their, but I’m back and got some more great strains lined up for the future. Gonna try and do an outdoor RDWC setup this summer so stay tuned, gonna be some monsters hopefully! I’ve never seen it done really and I have a few ideas...lol but anyway, back the the cement shoes. So I started them awhile back(not exactly sure when) in my smaller tent(3x4) under a single 1200w King LED grow light. They spent about 2 months in this tent in 3 gal DWC buckets until they outgrew the buckets and tent and need to be moved. Up until this point they were kinda just on auto pilot in the background of my other larger tents. But I was planning on reducing my plant count in my larger 4x8 tents so I decided to go from 4 plants per tent to 2 plants per tent, so we needed some big girls to fill these tents. Lol they were topped at 3-4th node and just let them go from there. They ended up being about 3 feet tall above the 1ft tall buckets. Moved them over too one of my bigger 4x8 tents and added a screen very carefully and ScrOG’d them out. Still waiting on my new Eye HPS Bulb so they are still currently under my 1000w MH. I’ll post all the pics I can find in this weeks log from the veg time and they are about 2 weeks into flower now so I’ll snap some flower pics soon and continue from there. So far 2 plants vegged a bit longer are filling the shoes of 4 plants no problem. Having more space means I also have not had to really defoliate at all. Well that’s it so far, stay tuned for more! Cheers 💨

Some explosive growth This week. She has calmed down on the drinking a little. The ph has stayed pretty level between 5.6 to 5.8 all week. Pistols are really starting to make an appearance. This will be the last week she gets the transition set of nutrients. I added another 450w viparspectra for flower. Sorry about some of the darker pics I got home right as the lights went out tonight. The smell is still light not heavy at all. She filled the scrog well. I am so surprised at how well this plant is doing now it’s like nothing ever happened. Plant got about 17 hours of dark yesterday do to my power going out cause someone hit a telephone pole in the neighborhood..... back on schedule today and we are at day 13 of flip. According to breeder we have about 8 more weeks to go. I’m no expert but I think she is done stretching (i think)..... I can say as a beginner grower this is an excellent strain so far for my level of experience. Been a little cold at night here but so far no issues

😎Week 3 8/2- Here we go into week three and I'm looking to see some explosive growth happening in the tent soon!😃 The girls are all running 2 1/2" to 4" in height with the Seedsman Gelato OG's and FastBuds Purple Lemonade currently kicking all the others butts!💪 Gave a good watering this morning 2hrs after lights on with non-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.4. I plan on maintaining that watering schedule from here on out. I refilled the humidifier with non-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.5. Love the new setup with the two HLG quantum boards, 4 plants per light, and currently running at 400w per light. I'm looking forward to some record yields with this new setup using these 650R's! Temp's/RH/VPD are where they need to be at this point with daytime temp's maxing @ 83 Deg F/ nighttime @ 68 Deg F, RH @ 55%, VPD @ 9.0😀 8/3- Started compost tea last night, ingredients were; 5g de-clorinated 7.0ph water & 5tbsp unsulfured molasses, 4 cups worm castings, 1 cup alfalfa meal, 1 cup kelp meal, 2tbsp bat guano, 1 scoop Great White mycorrhiza and 3tbsp Neptunes Harvest seaweed extract which were added after the air was turned on and the 'bag' was in the bucket. I fimmed the FastBuds Purple Lemonade #2 and Seedsman Gelato OG #1, LST'd the FastBuds Crystal Meth #1 & #2, and the Seedsman Zkittles #1. Whilst doing all that I noticed my old friends the fungus gnats so I immediately placed sticky traps in all pots....little bastards! I went online and ordered Nematoads who will have a field day with the gnats! The girls all got watered in from the top and bottom with de-chlorinated straight water ph'd to 6.6 @ 76deg 225ppm, lights still @ 36" above the soil and running @ 400w each.😎 8/4- Gave the girls compost tea for breakfast. The tea had brewed for 38hrs., had 854ppm and ph'd @ 7.1...PERFECT! I split 4g of the tea between the eight ladies @ 1/2 gallon each. I also topped the FastBuds Crystal Meth #2 and Seedsman Gelato OG #2 and checked and adjusted LST on all. Temp's, RH, and VPD all on point with the girls are showing it! 8/5- Soil felt moist so skipping water today and will feed early AM. All the ladies have taken on a deeper shade of green and are really starting to take off since receiving the compost tea yesterday and they'll be going crazy by the end of this week going into week four. The FastBuds Crystal Meth #1 & #2 are both showing early flowering signs already and are starting to get some purple coloration in new growth which looks natural, not a deficiency. I topped the FastBuds Purple Lemonade #1 and Seedsman Zkittles #1 and checked/adjusted LST on all. 8/6- Gave a good watering this morning with 4g of de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.8, went through, and tucked leaves on all the girls to keep exposing lower bud sites to the light so that we have a nice even canopy for flower! All the girls have either been topped, fimmed or LST'd at this point and all I'll be doing from here on out is tucking leaves and possibly some very minor defoliation if needed, 8/7- All the girls look very happy this morning and are starting to get ready for that stretch at the beginning of flower. The FastBuds Crystal Meth's are the shortest, along with the Seedsman Zkittles #1 and the CM's are already showing pistils but I'm not declaring that they're in 'flower' quite yet. 8/8- Gave all the ladies a good water in this morning with .5g each of de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.9 @ 76deg. Went over all the girls and tucked shade leaves to expose bud sites, removed a couple of the ones that couldn't be tucked, and were blocking numerous bud sites. I also continued with LST on all bending branches outward to expose them to more of that HLG 650R goodness!

I feel like they could be more light green in color but they are growing really well. Alaskan purple seems to be growing a little lower than the blueberry but I'll bet it's just the genetics. Overall haven't been feeding them water til the soil is dry on top with the ffof, and they seem to respond well to it with no discoloration or burns. Haven't used any nutes and don't plan to til the week of flowering or a week after depending on how the transplant goes. Will add more pics throughout the week, if anyone notices anything I'm missing feel free to spill the beans.

Ya al día con las fotos. Empecé a fertilizar con vitamax pro. Las hojas laterales rotas con color marrón tienen quemadura por luz del led de apoyo, descarté sobrefertilización por que solo apareció en hojas superiores. La punta del cogollo central también se está quemando con luz por proximidad al led principal que lo tengo al máximo de altura.

Hey there, as the clones are almost ready and I will transplant them in the aeroponic system tomorrow, I allowed myself to get the pH and EC ready and stabilize it over a night. 😏 August, 20th: 23 of the 30 clones made it to the system and are now growing fine. Guess those 7 clones that didn‘t make it were old ones from below the mother plant. SanLights at 40%. ☀️

Auto Moon Rock is closing in on finishing bulking. She has a sweet almost fruity kinda smell. She has a nice layer of frost. I will be switching her to ph water in a few days to prep her for Harvest. I may have to try this perlite grow again in the future. She really struggled when she was small. Regardless, I think the grow was neat and unique. I will get a nice little yield from her when done. She should be pretty potent. Thank you Medic Grow, and Divine Seeds. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

March 13, 2023, at 1:30 PM -I hit the plants with their first treated water on the 11th and lowered the light to 18 inches above the canopy. Today’s the 13th and it’s obvious that the plants are responding. The forum Stomper has really taken off and the blood orange haze number one appears to be lagging. Week one ends on 16 March. Later today I’ll water them with some treated water, hopefully. I’ll take a short video and a couple pictures. Reasons for the Forum Stomper’s vigor. ~ it’s in a different pot ~ it has less soil ~ it may be possible that my dogs pissed on the other three plants. 😡 March 14, 2023 at 3:30 PM -So far every day I’ve noticed the difference in the plants. They are definitely growing and developing quickly. The forum Stomper is still outgrowing the other plants. The blood orange haze number one is growing but slower than the rest. I’ll post some more pictures and a video from yesterday and today. March 15, 2023 at 1:33 PM ~ someone left the heater, near the plants, and expose them to 90° temperatures for about 12 hours. Thank goodness the plants aren’t that big because they seem to have actually liked it. I’ll throw up a couple pictures tomorrow. The plants technically are 14 days old on the 16th. March 16, 2023 at 3:27 PM ~Today’s the last day of week one. Watering them with treated water later today.

With no doubt these plants have not produced much more quantity and density of buds due to the 2 serious mistakes I've made (those who have read the weeks will know what I mean). However, I can say that I am happy with the production obtained given the mistakes made. Between the 2 plants, the one that has produced more and generated the most dense buds has been the Gorilla with the Man-lining technique applied, it has also loosed a bit less weight drying than the non man-lining one. In comparison with the Money Makers with which they have grown the result is the same. Both Gorillas have each produced more than any of the Moneys comparing them 1 to 1. Also buds are a bit dense than the moneys, but none of them is really desde at all. *****ESPAÑOL***** Sin duda estas plantas no han producido mucha mas cantidad y densidad de cogollos debido a los 2 graves errores que he cometido (quien se haya leído las semanas sabrá a que me refiero). No obstante, puedo decir que estoy contento con la producción obtenida dados los errores cometidos. Entre las 2 plantas, la que más a producido y ha generado cogollos más densos ha sido la Gorilla con la técnica de Man-lining aplicada, y también ha perdido un poquito menos de peso en el secado que la otra. En comparación con las Money Maker junto a las que han crecido el resultado es el mismo. Las Gorillas han producido cada una más que cualquiera de las Moneys comparándolas 1 a 1. Así mismo, los cogollos de las Gorillas presentan un pelín más densidad que el de las Moneys, aunque realmente ninguna de las 4 plantas ha generado cogollos densos del todo.

Week -3 of flowering Stage 91 Octane is massive and looking the forming of her pistals and trichromes is very satisfying. Banana Daddy is also starting her blooming phase you can see her pistals in the video. The last Sugae Cane lates in flowering. She still doesn’t sign or start to see no pistals but she grow healthy and happy.
