Week is going super well, did notice trichomes are starting to develop more in the coming weeks. Still struggling with watering mainly because i have 3 different strains and i dont know the flow yet. Watering schedule is thrice a week, I nutrient feed on sundays, water on wednesday and compost tea on fridays 500ml each pot. Will be monitoring the trichomes hereafter, today is day 90 from germination, super happy with the results no stunted growth or slow growth. Will set my harvest day between day 120-150. I am targetting longer harvest time for the purple punch because they didnt fight for the light and bullied by 2 monstrous sativas. Since it is indica dominant, i am going to chop them once i see 70% amber

Week 9 - Day 59 (from seed) Tropicana Cookies Auto by Fast Buds Update: Yesterday I watered her with 5ml Plagron Green Sensation and 6ml of Bud Candy in 2 liters of distilled water. No pH adjustment. This should help push the buds a bit more in this final phase. Plant status: She’s stacking up nicely! Buds are really starting to swell and fill out, especially around the main cola. There’s a heavy coating of trichomes — mostly milky with just a few clears left, no amber yet from what I can see. The sugar leaves have a nice frost to them and the aroma is getting stronger each day — very sweet and fruity. Leaves are mostly healthy, although a few of the older fan leaves are starting to fade, which is expected at this stage. No major signs of deficiency or stress. I think she’s entering her final push. Based on trichome development and overall appearance, I’d estimate maybe 10–14 days left. I’ll likely start the flush in 3-4 days unless I see amber trichomes sooner. Any thoughts or feedback are welcome — feel free to check the trichome pics and let me know what you’d do!

Another week done applying some More training Put the Ionbeam U4 inside the tent watch the unboxing video and setup! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B6cT9c1UfSo

So about 2 weeks in, things are really starting to go. Both plants are looking healthy albeit a little light streched, lowered the lights a bit and fixed it.... I put in the Royal Queen Northern Lights Auto, upped the humidity with a little help from a crappy humidifier (it actually broke due to calcium blockage after 2 weeks because I was stupid and forgot to fill it with distilled water instea of tap water....) At the end of week 2 the new NL seed showed herself to the world.... YAY!

Hallo zusammen 🤙. Sie wächst sehr schön und macht keine Umstände.

Doing her thing this week. Trichomes forming nicely.

La White Widow si sta comportando come una vera signora, ottima struttura, ottima resistenza, sono super soddisfatto e non vedo L ora di sentire e fumare questi bellissimi fiori 🌺 È veramente un peccato fare le cose così, al chiuso, quando potrei benissimo piantare un intero campo e stargli dietro con tanto amore…arriverà presto anche quel momento!!! ✨👌😛🌬️❄️🚀

😁😁😁 Hi grow mates 😁😁😁 As day 43 arrived we are opening 7th week of my grow journey. Like you can see from the photos girls started to blooms wildly. Purple Lemonade is getting absolutely purple, flowers gets density and aroma. Cinderella !! Wow !! Here is an interesting one. She is huge, I never had so many flowers sites on one plant. She's tall girl 118 cm !! Bruce Banner, she is a real mystery. She started to blooms like all her sisters, but looks a little shy. I think she need just more time. From previous experiences, I know that the "shy" ones gave best results. Fingers crossed 🤞 Day 44 Purple Lemonade 81 cm Original Cinderella 118 cm !! Bruce Banner 90 cm I wish you all, All the best 😇

Que pasa familia, vamos con la octava semana de floración de estas Pink Sunset feminizadas de silentseeds. Vamos al lío ,se trasplantaron en macetas de 7 litros definitivamente. El ph se controla en 6.0 , la temperatura la tenemos entre 24/20 grados y la humedad ronda el 50%. El ciclo de floración puse 12h de luz, el foco está al 100% de potencia. De momento van creciendo a buen ritmo y tienen un buen color. La flor está engordando y van formándose, también empieza a producir tricomas. Agradecer Agrobeta por el envío de un kit para la temporada, son unos jefes. - os dejo por aquí un CÓDIGO: Eldruida Descuento para la tienda de MARS HYDRO. https://www.mars-hydro.com Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

This week the plant finally gets the tent to itself and I began training for a wider canopy , poor girl looks tortured lol in this week I notice a mutation on one of the branches fasciation which I show in the video I’m unsure as what to do because in the week because I want to switch the plant very soon to flower and don’t want to waste a branch but I kinda wanted to see what the buds would look like if I left i ultimately decided to chop it

Dudes, this girl is butt wild, she won’t stop growing. I had to defoliate her severally times over the course of 2 weeks. I am running out of growing space for her. She measures more than 2x2 (L x W). Drinks more than a gallon of water every 3-4 days. May need to invest in a RO system. However, I am very thankful that shes doing well. This is a GG#4 x Zkittlez by Cream of the crop seeds.

Really nice plant. It remained small!!! A lot of stinky very well THC coated buds. It likes water, and strong strain I had tried before and the effects are awesome. Relaxing body parts arms and legs get heavy it is like more medical. I will be back with the effects after one week. It has to be dried and I need to start curing it. Lovely strain. Update: really nice smoke guys. Strong and yeah makes you high, relaxed, medical effect. Strong indica.

October 1 > Harvest morning. New trick... get up before dawn... cut your plant down and hang her upside down... then go back to bed. Hehe... I like this retirement stuff. We get smarter as we age. 😎 I did a fair job of plucking fan leaves before harvest morning so there wasn't that much work for me to do anyway on this girl compared to some of the other monsters she grew up with. Took me only about 90 minutes to complete my normal processing and washing. She developed into a wonderful purple color at the end there. The unique feature of this grow for me was that I never topped this girl. Subsequently she developed a huge single top cola that grew about a foot taller than the rest of the plant. Served as a demonstration of why we top plants in general. Hard for me to imagine what a bunch of these in the wild looks like but this is what WILD looks like. Diary note > I'll come back later and add weights and things. I threw in a weight of 100 grams as a marker to appease the gods. Total guess. ======================================================================== October 7 > Guess I underestimated my yield a tad... love when that happens. 😁 Ended up coming in at 212 grams buds and 181 grams trim. Woohoo. Another growing season officially comes to a close today. 👌✊ Initially I wasn't sure I wanted to use the Trimbag on this baby... because she was my last plant to harvest this year and I had plenty of time to hand trim her... and I harbored various possibly incorrect assumptions about the Trimbag originally which I have now shed. More on that later. Let me lay out my personal Trimbag history here as a learning experience for the community... ======================================================================== Originally I won this tool as part of my September 2018 diary winnings... and I looked at it strictly as a tool for fairly large scale growers.. of which I did not consider myself at that time. I grew an amazingingly oversized Durban Poison for a 5 gallon pot and I got lucky I thought. ... Then I took a look at how much herb I processed this summer and I said THANK YOU Trimbag! It saved me more than enough hours of hand trimming to demonstrate it’s usefulness. (October 12) >> Already slowing down in post-harvest mode hehe... so it looks like I did the same thing as last year diary-wise. Now I have another Trimbag on my hands but all I need is another magnet actually (hehe)... the zippers show no signs of sticking up at this point after me throwing about 2-3 pounds of herb threw the mill, and the overall bag has only lightly been used at this point IMHO. I'm a little surprised I lost that magnet and it's not a great sign for the longevity of the embroidery - so to speak, but other than that it's solid construction. And simple. I’ll be contacting Trimbag to see if I can acquire a new magnet and we’ll see how that goes. Back to my expectations... I only used this device on stuff I grew outdoors... of which I had enough... more than twice what I grew last summer - but that was by design. If I was to set out a general rule… I would say that I expect the weight of buds to be roughly equal to the weight of trim. This is AFTER I have thrown away any fan leaves plucked on the morning of harvest which are not saved as trim. I stop plucking when buds start to get ripped up if I don’t. Round 1 >> The first go was the early Amnesia 7 batch (Little Girl flowered early), and honestly, I was unimpressed. I looked at it as maybe I didn't let it dry long enough. I have a ritual of washing all my outdoor grown herb which has generally tended to cause things to dry a tad quicker than what one would expect in the field. I walked away from this initial experience like boy I hope I screwed that up and it works better on round 2. Round 2 >> Cream & Cheese CBD ... I think this girl did more to confuse me than anything else. The buds were not oversized but she seemed to take forever to dry. Part of this is probably attributable to excess humidity in the first few days - a weird week - we actually had some rain which is very unusual. But even after a week of drying I only managed 63g of shake on this batch (via the Trimbag). I'm going WTF? Ahem.... I ended up with 269 grams of buds for my Cream & Cheese. After that 63 g shake by bag I added 165 g trim by hand... and I was seriously wondering why this bag thang existed. Turns out C&C was not a good example.... so don't let the bad things weigh you down. Round 3 >> Next came Northern Lights - and my attitude changed completely. I harvested 319g buds, but the initial run with Trimbag generated 144g trim which I followed with 186g hand trim. NL had very dense buds and large internodal spacing which made trimming EZ. She was a monster… but at the same time I had her trimmed in under 4 hours. Of all the beasties I grew outdoors this summer, this was the largest yield for a single plant - but trimming her was a relative breeze, and it felt like it. I thought I hit the sweet spot for maybe how dry the herb needed to be for the product to work well… but probably only partially correct. Plant structure is significant. Round 4 >> Next came round 2 with Amnesia. As I noted in my diary I knew I was going to end up with a pound of herb on this particular strain so I tried to beat this particular batch up to minimize my hand trimming and see what the effect was. The end result of this was that I generated a smaller amount of buds from the larger sized pot (Little Girl was in a 10 gallon container and generated 235g buds/ 360g trim and Big Girl was in a 15 gallon container that generated 223g buds/ 493g trim). Round 5 >> Next came where we’re at in this here diary…Purple Berry Kush. Now originally I wasn’t sure I wanted to run this baby thru the mill. I THOUGHT that maybe because I hadn’t topped this girl and I didn’t put her in a pot bigger than 7 gallons which put her at a direct disadvantage vs my other outdoor girls that the yield would be substantially smaller, but I’ll be damned she ended up with 212g buds. Very satisfied there… and this stuff smells great when I let her get some air. The key here on trimming for this round was twofold. I let the buds dry longer than I normally would have by a few days… because I had nothing pushing me to make space for reason A… and because stuff was intervening for reason B… golf tournament… Hardly Strictly Bluegrass in SF (Robert Plant was awesome - we share the same birthday and he was 71 in August - I can only hope I’m still rockin’ that hard in 9 years)…you know - stuff. PBK ended up working out the best of all. 212g buds vs 181g trim. That’s the ONLY variant that ended up with more buds than trim. Part of that was how easy PBK was to maintain. I only did ONE major pruning of internal growth - probably later than I should have - I was trying hard to let her grow as wild as possible. But she was very easy to prune fan leaves off when that purple time came. It’s seems clear at this point that indica’s are easier to trim than sativa’s with a Trimbag…. but I’m not sure that’s going to be a revelation to anyone. As far as I’m concerned, anything that grows with an inter-nodal spacing that allows you to neatly separate your buds will work better with the Trimbag. DRY is a necessary ingredient for using this device. Probably drier than I am accustomed to… but that’s why somebody invented Boveda packs right? Anyway… I’m a VERY SATISFIED Trimbag customer at this point. It takes a little work to determine how dry your herb needs to be but even if you have to experiment, the number of hours you save from hand trimming will eventually make it worth your while… and as a newly minted senior citizen I can say that while my time might be free - anything that helps reduce pain - including time spent trimming - becomes quite significant. NOW —> The other side of this coin is that I will probably NOT use the Trimbag when I get back to indoor growing in early December… because I expect to be growing much smaller plants. Most of the things I’ve grown indoors top out at less than a couple ounces so it’s not clear to me that Trimbag is necessary with a yield that small… but I can test that theory later this winter. ================================================= hehe… I kinda promised myself “no more winter crops” after last summers bounty but I found that making edibles consumes a significant quantity of herb, and I really like my brownies. So now that I’ve stocked up to solve that problem, I plan to get back to some indoor growing (because growing is FUN)… mainly autoflowers. I actually have better control of temperature for things that I grow in winter as opposed to summer… but I have to add the heat to make that happen. That compares with the difficulty of adequate cooling if I run my lights during daytime in summer - even with night lights summer temps can be a problem with no AC. I don’t have AC in my house. It’s a function of California microclimates. If I lived 15 miles east of here - we’d BAKE with no AC (air conditioning). If it weren’t for coastal fog - this whole place would be a desert. With climate change - we’re heading that way even WITH the fog. We roll the dice here every winter and hope we get enough snow in the Sierra to hold off the firestorms that will come in the fall. We went thru a period of “drought” here in California a relatively short while back but even though we are officially out of our drought phase the fall firestorm intensity seems to be getting worse every year. But this is a clear sign I’ve consumed too much indica for one evening and I’m starting to lose track of.... just about everything. Anyhow… I think I’m about diaried out for this year. I have a pretty freaking serious vacation planned to celebrate my retirement for late next month… Las Vegas golf > Joshua Tree National Park camping > Palm Desert resort golf > Beach camping South Carlsbad > Torrey Pines golf > Laguna Beach > Pismo Beach camping > Monterey. It’s been about 30 years since I did anything this crazy (and that was a Grateful Dead tour in 1987 thru Arizona/Utah/California for my 30th birthday). Big difference this time around? Cannabis is LEGAL for the entire trip. I will be well stocked enough to sedate anything that gets near me. See y’all in December. 😎

The week was nothing unusual, I fertilized today and see them growing very well 😍 Next week I will defoliate and thin out again and remove what is in the shade and will not wear anything ... otherwise I am very, very satisfied with the growth of the plants😁😏😊

Just watering and waiting...🤤 How many days do you think?? Please lmk

Pleasure to grow. Low maintenance in super soil setup in 5 gal cloth pot. Stayed small and compact but frosted up early and heavily. No deficiencies, steady growth, no training needed. Even minimal LST (which I did not do), would surely increase yield but I was more focused on quality and letting it do its thing. Genetically, it was determined to grow a perfect little canopy while not taking up much space, about as low maintenance as you can get on a plant imo. Running autos is still a limited thing for me, I like the idea of having keeper clones of photos as this is all for personal medical use, but this plant was fun to grow, true to form and stable as heck. I have a few seeds left and I’ll definitely save them for an outdoor run down the line

03.05.21 hab heute morgen die Pflanzen alle einmal durch gespült mit klarem Wasser ohne irgendwas natürlich Ph eingestellt auf 6,5 hoffe das das mein Problem behebt mal sehen wie sich die Ladys die Woche so schlagen. Werde dann wenn alles gut läuft mit halber dosis green sensation weiter fahren sowie ca halber dosis sugar royal, blüte dünger fällt erstmal weg bis aufs erste...... 04.05.21 heut stand nix an ausser beobachten der Ladys Töpfe sind noch gut feucht vom spülen hab fast 65% rh im Zelt In der Nacht ist nicht so toll aber muss ich durch Wetter ist auch beschissen was dem ganzen auch noch zu steuert zum kotzen...... 05.05.21 die Pflanze scheinen sich einigermaßen von der überdüngung zu erholen, ich hab das gefühl das die blüte weiter an schwillt auf der linken Seite. Gelato # 1,2 und 3 sind jetzt auch seid gestern dabei ihre stigmas in caramel zu verwandeln. Kann es kaum noch erwarten zu spülen und dann in den Endspurt zu kommen aber bis dahin sind noch ein paar Wochen..... 06.05.21 heute stand mal wieder nix an ausser mich an meinem Ergebnis bis jetzt zu erfreuen hab mir auch heute schon mal Gedanken für die nächste Runde gemacht werde wohl beim nächsten Grow mal nur mainlaining machen ohne netzt ach ja und es wird auf den Wunsch meiner Frau 4x purps og die Kaffee caramel lady.... 07.05.21 heute stand mal Die erste terp Kontrolle bei gelato 41 #2 an und siehe da es sind schon einige milchig dazwischen aber noch nix bernstein würde schätzen das ca 60% milchig sind und 40% noch durchsichtig also noch zeit bis zur Spülung hab mir heute gedacht ich zeige mal die Höhe der buds im Durchschnitt linke Seite ca 20 cm rechte Seite ca 10 cm der Geruch der Ladys ist eigendlich garnicht so typisch stechen nach Cannabis solange ich die Ladys nicht bewege sprich gegen die röhre vom Netz komme das bisschen wackeln am netzt lässt sie sofort stinken wie ein stinktier als würde sie versuchen mich zu vertreiben oder meine Aufmerksamkeit auf sich ziehen...... 08.05.21 heute stand auch wieder mal nur das beobachten und begutachten der buds an ich kontrolliere fast täglich auf schimmel und dieser Geruch ist einfach traumhaft heute hat er mich dazu verleitet zum Eis laden zu gehen und mir erstmal Haus gemachtes Eis zu kaufen ich werd noch fett wegen der Sorte dieser Duft macht hungrig auf süßes....... 09.05.21 endlich wieder eine Woche rum kann es kaum noch erwarten zur Spülung zu kommen dann kann ich endlich einen genauen Zeitpunkt für den cut festlegen und mich neu sortieren für die nächste Runde gibt so eine schöne Aussage die ich in meinem grow Buch gelesen habe "kiffen macht nicht süchtig, growen aber schon" ich persönlich empfinde es ganau so. Ich bin schon richtig Heiss darauf neu zu beginnen, während meine Frau einfach nur Heiss aufs Endprodukt ist.....
