—SETUP— .BOSSLED LED 1800W full spectrum, real power consumption is +-250W. .Grow space 60X100X200(a simple shower box. .AN nutes and other simple additives. .Grow medium is 60% peat, 30% perlite, 10% organic correction(worm castings), 5 gallon fabric pots(18l). —BRIEF— Hi there, I have tried already done this genetic outdoors, in poor lighting and a general purpose nute from Neudorff, yielded 25g dry, in 3gallon pots same medium. So this is a good experiment, lets see indoors how she will compare. —GERMINATION— My germination process always start by scarifying the seeds, i created a little tool for that. I just a little container with sandpaper walls. Shake gently for about 60 secs+, this allows for the water to penetrate better in the seed shell, once you soak. Then i soak overnight from 12 to 20 hours max. From there i either plant straight or use the paper towel method to see the tap root before. If you are a bit on the impatient side seen the tap root is advisable so you see some movement before planting. Lol! —ROYAL QUEEN SEEDS . QUICK ONE . INFO — Chose this strain because is basic and I have to travel for a month soon, and someone else is going to take care for this time. :) Quick One is a fast-growing autoflowering strain. This was one of the first autoflowering strains developed. When it was first released, it was one of the quickest growing strains on the planet. THC: 13% CBD: Low Yield Indoor : 275 - 325 gr/m2 Yield Outdoor: 100 - 150 gr/plant Height Indoor: 50 - 60 cm Height Outdoor: 60 - 100 cm Flowering: 5 - 6 Weeks Harvest month: 8-9 weeks after sprouting Genetic Background: Strong Indica x Ruderalis Type: Sa 10% In 60% Ru 30% Effect: Physical Climate: Mild —RQS QUICK ONE GERMINATION UPDATE— My mood said to me to plant straight, so scarify > soak 18 hours +- > plant straight. Seedlings look a bit odd, with a yellow center, let's give her some days in and see what happens next.

The first one is a mutant

run#6 Week 2: --------------- I'll make this brief: My posts are pretty long. For the hasty reader: A friendly AI gets to sift through my very personal logs & notes, then drafts a competing weeks journal (usually on my expense). "The Terpene Front" is back - hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Extened notes the report was based on and personal ramblings follow down below, as per usual. Let's go! --------- PATHÉ DISPATCH — THE TERPENE FRONT, WEEK TWO [newsreel crackle, brass fanfare] GOOD EVENING, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN. The great heat front of summer has RETREATED, and our correspondent ventures forth once more. DATELINE: BASE CAMP SIX. Three new specimens in tow: Pineapple; Mango Frost, of the F1 Frosts; and Gorilla Cookies, on her FOURTH expedition with this man and STILL willing. None of them, we stress, VOLUNTEERED. Last season’s Inline Fan returns to temperature duty, its summer disgrace forgiven. The radiator has NOT been invited. [ominous timpani] THE LONG POLAR NIGHT. For days the specimens languished at FIFTY-FIVE micromoles, a twilight so dim they stretched toward it like explorers crawling toward a distant lantern. The cause? Our correspondent measured the lamp’s HEIGHT. He placed his thermometers WITH CARE. And then he forgot to turn up the LIGHT. Again. Then came SUNRISE, a ramp so steep the specimens went straight from polar night to MIDNIGHT SUN: twenty-four hours a day, no sunset. Mango responded by refusing to grow taller AT ALL. The height charts have recorded the whole affair for POSTERITY. BENEATH THE CAMP: HOT SPRINGS. Probes buried in the soil read twenty-four degrees. Our man now carries ICE down to the roots by hand, a polar party in reverse. AND THE WEATHER? He has begun MANUFACTURING HIS OWN. One fan blows wind. A SECOND fan has been engaged solely to interrupt the FIRST: five minutes on, fourteen off. Meteorology, ladies and gentlemen, has never been so DOMESTIC. [record scratch] BUT NOW, THE DISCOVERY THAT SHOOK BASE CAMP. Before departure, our correspondent undertook a GREAT SURVEY of soil itself: component by component, EC by EC, pH offset by pH offset. He searched the land for one humble thing, soil WITHOUT fertilizer. Every outfitter’s soil came pre-loaded, even the SEEDLING mixes. He studied so deeply, we are told, that the word “soil” LOST ALL MEANING to him. And then, exhausted and scholarly, armed with more knowledge of the earth than is strictly healthy, he walked into a shop and bought... PRE-FERTILIZED VEGETABLE SOIL. Three-three-three. He did, in fairness, CUT IT with his own components, a gentleman’s dilution. Then he BEDDED THE INFANTS IN IT. It was not diluted ENOUGH. The seedling nests ran HOT. Nutrients piled up, and nobody could say WHICH ones. The pH sat on the wrong side of the border. Leaves faded pale, and Mango DROOPED, a droop that looked like too much water but was likely too LITTLE. [stern voiceover] What saved them? Not the survey, and not the spreadsheets. It was a HANDFUL OF MIXED DIRT at the edge of each nest, a soft border worked in by pure reflex, so the roots could wander outward without striking a wall. Science, rescued by HOUSEKEEPING. [timpani, softer] And now, cautious HOPE. Chlorophyll-B returns, fresh and minty BLUE-GREEN. Pineapple leads the party, a CHAMPION. Cookies hung back shyly, then SUDDENLY caught up, precisely when Mango took the lead in SUFFERING. And Mango stands upright again in a lime-grass green of her own choosing. Our correspondent has made them a promise. After fourteen days beneath a sun that never sets, there will be... a NIGHT. [fanfare, film flickers out] THIS HAS BEEN A DISPATCH FROM THE TERPENE FRONT. READ YOUR SOIL BAGS. GOODNIGHT. ------------------------------ What this was based on: run#6 week 2: Hot Seedling Nests ------------------- The metal inserts you see near the pot centers roughly mark the size of the seedling nests. Often, when starting a new cycle, I find myself scrambling for seedling nests components in hindsight, ringing up people to check out their garden soils because there is an emergency. run#6 was different: After what felt like days of looking for unfertilized soil online, I knowingly borrowed a pre-fertilized 3/3/3 product because I finally needed "something". Every shop had pre-fertilized mixes, even the seedling soils were full of them. Instead, while working on nutrient curves, I tunneled into classifying soil components, their individual EC and pH offsets and nutrient compositions. I was completely baffled and brick-walled by the complexity. I was hoping to elegantly side-step my unsuccessful product searches by "cooking up" some seedling nests from raw materials I had, but greatly under-estimated what there is to learn about "soil", a word that had just lost all meaning for me. So, rather than trying to start a soil business, I borrowed some general purpose vegetable soil and tried to thin it out a little with the components I use. That was a huge mistake. It easily resulted in a few days lost from the valuable seedling-veg phase, but it only slowly dawned on me why. The seedling nests were too "hot" still, my fairly conservative nutrient cocktail already seemed to cause symptoms akin to nutrient lock-out. Some stuff seemed to accumulate and I did not know which. K, Ca, Mg and N were the likely culprits, when P deficiency symptoms could be cured within days by upping the dosage. But even worse: I completely forgot about the fact that my medium's pH differed greatly from the seedling nests components. An offset of at least +0.3 was needed - this entire time. So I started eye-balling my daily pH values in accordance with the transitional phase, when roots slowly explore their new home medium. Thankfully, the high biology contents caused better pH buffering in the nests - so that zone was fairly stable - just in the wrong kinda way ... Things that likely saved my butt: - No hard seedling nest - medium boundaries. Every nest had a transitional zone worked in, mixing a bit of both before establishing a core. This almost automatic move growers make made a big difference. The roots could discover gradually without ever hitting an "acid wall of fog". - pH differences were noticed late for spectacular results, but meaningfully early. I would up the pH when the roots were just contained in the nests, and gradually transition towards my medium's pH as they grew outwards. Or, at least, that's what I hoped would happen. But uncle Pete has some tricks up his sleeves: To help move nutrients towards the leaves when the roots barely could, I improved my good old foliar spray - originally designed to help with Far Red expansion stress. Bypassing root feeding with a daylight-only spray really helps, when poor visibility and low hanging scrog nets are our enemies at night. It delivers some Ca, Mg, but plenty of micro-nutrients fairly close to where they are needed, when the roots have other problems to deal with. (Also, I am secretly leaf-feeding a plant in the living room that I accidentally treated like a gold fish.) Quick, additional facts: ------------------- - Mango's watering was a challenge, drooping indicated larger problems, soil sensors disagree with cultivar? - I quickly recovered my PPFD ramp, cultivars basically told me when to stop increasing. Mango had a personal "cloud" when recovery was tough. See impact on size in the heights chart. - Climate is really stable, I am happy and focused on randomizing wind patterns instead, also upping transpiration for plants - Chlorophyll-B production finally underway, towards the end of week 2. Fresh, juicy blue and minty green hues intermingle with an exhausted-chlorophyll / mild nutrient-lockout yellow wash on all cultivars. Pineapple recovered and started producing healthy greens first, Cookies followed the lead shyly, Mango confirmed capability under "competing priorities". - Cookies suddenly decided to catch up in height, after Mango took the lead in suffering for the week - Medium temps are not amazing, reaching up to 24°C. Ice-pack cooling is back to lower nutrient solution temp to 12°C, then misting in slowly to arrive at 18°C for longer durations - several hormone-proximity-mines have been deployed in my medium, for roots to discover ... ---------- Thanks for checking out my journal, stay healthy! - Pete

Day 83 - end of week 4 flowering and everything thing going good , super easy to grow so far with no problems. They have started giving of a really sweet smell can’t wait to taste 👅

***Sponsored Grow*** = Medic || https://medicgrow.com || Grow = ***Sponsored Grow*** Ok big update this week, I finally edited the footage of the lights and got their unboxing photos processed, this took way longer then expected and should have been done on germination or week 1 entry but better late then never. You can really see how the lights shine in comparison to my older ones. The brightness of the leds is next level and I can use their V1 spectrum from seed to harvest. Its a great balance of red and blue in a full spectrum light. The medic grow mini sun 2 is a all purpose light that I can see myself getting lots of use out of in the future. Plus they fit in my tent just as snug as my last ones and that's a big thing for me, I don't like dim corners. I am using the lights at 80% dim level. this will be raised to 100% when they enter flower :D First time useing lights I can dim. they also have an onboard timer attached to them, I will be playing aorund with this to see if its something I want to use in the coming weeks, I all ready have all the external timers so I can see how this is a useful tool for anyone starting off without them. On top of all this I also transplanted my plants into their final pots. they went from a .7-.8L to a 2gal or 7.5L, all the root balls on the plants where perfect, nice white roots, maybe a bit compacted for the size and might explain why I am having some issues with them but healthy none the less. I think they will not start to grow a bit better and I will see less issues moving forward. I still have yet to get a new PH pen but I am blindly guessing the PH by adding 2 drops of phosphoric acid ph down per 1gal of feed solution. it seems to be working out just fine. Till next week. ***Sponsored Grow*** Official Website: https://medicgrow.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/medicgrowled Twitter: https://twitter.com/medicgrow Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/medicgrow420/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNmiY4F9z94u-8eGj7R1CSQ Growdiaries: https://growdiaries.com/grower/medicgrowled https://growdiaries.com/grow-lights/medic-grow

Hello everyone. My MAC 1 F 1 hybrid clones are now entering week 6 of their vegetative stage. I just finished defoliating them and topped them again today.Temperatures today are on the higher side at 27 degrees, and with the light running 24/7, it will drop to 24 degrees at night. I'm feeding them on the lower side with 2 milliliters of Canna Coco A and B and 4 milliliters of Canna Rhizotonic. They are ready to flower, but since I don't have a flower tent available for another 14 to 15 days, they will go into flower at week 8. I'm thinking this will make the pots too small and lead to underwatering, so I'll consider transplanting later. At this rate, my pots are going to start charging me rent for all the extra space they think they deserve. Thank you for stopping by, and have a nice day. Best regard, Growfather.

Added stakes for better light penetration. checked trichomes with jeweler's loop and are still clear. Plenty of time left to go. More details in video.

Day 61: For this week I needed to do some adjustments. Because of not having much time for 1.5-2 weeks and the beautifull weather I kind of lacked interest in them. So I didn't notice that the fresh air flow didnt reached a corner with plants, which resulted in them having heat problems and therefore falling behind. You can see this in the last 2 pictures. The buds stretched and didnt swell. It looks small and silly. Lets hope they will get better but I won't expect them to be as nice and thick as the others. Since I grow alot of plants, I do not mind, it doesn't harm me. I lifted a fan up and changed some plants location.

Big Bud ( Sensi seeds)Schauen immer besser aus 😁🍁❤️

I’m baaaaack!!! Sorry I’ve been away for a while. I’ve been busy getting everything together for the next phase… Welcome to the Dude Garden 2.0! I now have 3 grow areas. Two 2x4 tents (one for clone/veg, another for mothers) and a large 10x12’ish flowering area (its actually larger than that, but I’ll be conservative). The tents are running 300w LED’s and a T5 for the cloning/sprouting station. The flowering area has a 1000w HPS!!! I’m totally psyched to see how the HPS does with flowering for me. From all the research I’ve done It seems to still be undisputed that HPS is the best for flowering (but not so good on the electric bill). I moved all plants from the tents to the new flowering area under HPS. That includes 3 Blackberry’s (FastBuds), NYC Diesel Auto (Barney’s Farm), DinaMed+ and Critical+ (DinaFem), Cream & Cheese CBD (Seedsman) and 3 Cherry Hemp (Elevator Supply Co). The Cream & Cheese CBD is looking very nice and she smells great! I am looking forward to watching her stretch and bloom under the new 1000w HPS. Then I'm really looking forward to the results. I'll definitely get her tested and hope the specs are even close to true. 20%'ish for both THC and CBD sounds too good to be true, but fingers crossed that's what she actually brings! I transplanted the photos from the 3 gallon grow bags to 7 gallon fabric pots. And also purchased some Pot Elevators that they are sitting on. The Plant Elevators are pretty cool, they have a mesh base to allow better drainage and air flow to the bottom of the pots. I have clones of all of the photos cut and planted in Jiffy pellets in a humidity dome. I took 3 clones of each. The strongest clones will become mothers, the others will be grown out. Note: The HPS gives much more of a yellow wash on the pics than I was expecting. I tried to color correct the pics the best I could and tried to get to the real colors, It should be pretty close.

Buds are taking form nicely! These should turn out great

I started feeding liquid nutrients this week. Although I’m using Nature’s Living Soil Super Soil Autoflower Concentrate mixed with Fox Farm Ocean Forest—so technically I could water only until harvest—I decided to begin liquid feeding in Week 3 at half the recommended dose. I also have a Tray2Grow Autopot system for automatic bottom feeding, but I haven’t activated it yet. When using liquid nutrients via top feeding, I’d need to turn the Autopot system off and wait until the plants absorb all the water in the tray before feeding from the top. Afterward, I’d have to manually turn the system back on. That seems like a hassle compared to just hand-watering and feeding. I could technically add the liquid nutrients to the Autopot reservoir, but that somewhat defeats the purpose of the system. The tank holds 25 gallons—enough to last a few weeks—but if I want to change or rotate nutrients weekly, I’d have to dump the remaining water and remix the solution each time. If I wanted to feed nutrients every other watering, I’d be changing out the tank every 3 days. Plus, liquid nutrients can cause buildup, so I’d need to clean the reservoir and all the tubing regularly. For now, I’ll stick with hand-watering and top feeding. I’ll only switch to the Autopot system if I need to leave town.

Another good run and another home run on this strain. Just everything about it is amazing. The smell, the look, the taste the high, all amazing. The scrog came out nicely and produced a fair amount of bud. One thing I would like to mention is I only flushed for one day. The dry time in the tent was 15 days as it was quite humid here but a nice slow dry is alright with me!!! This harvest report is after 2 weeks of daily burping. So about a month, maybe little more from harvest. I can say I definately agree with the old timers that the flsuh is not important its the dry and cure. She is super smooth and tastes great already with little cure. The ash is also nice and white!! skip the flush but slow down drying is my thoughts for the future. after 2 weeks of burping in the big jar I move them to 20ish gram jars for the remainder of their curing time. As far as weight goes, I was a little off on my guess, I think I guessed 122 but 92 isnt all that bad. The tent harvest was mid 500's but a couple of the other strains from a different breeder really slacked on the weight so overall I'm happy. More and most imortant is all the flower in the tent is top notch thats for sure. Thanks for following peeps, on to the next run!!!! PS. Barneys genetics is damn amazing! 😈

Bonjour mes amies, merci de visiter ce journal de culture. Cette Glookies a une forte vigueur , elle fait des feuilles énormes et porte sur elle une odeur deja bien présente. Comme vous pouvez le voir sur les photos et vidéos, de jojr en jojr elle devient de plus en plus frosty. Merci @Barneyfarm pour votre merveilleuse genetique

Tag 70 - Ende der 10. Woche. Die Pflanze duftet mittlerweile extrem. Die Blüten duften cremig mit tropischen und fruchtigen Untertönen. Ich kann es kaum erwarten zu ernten. In dieser Woche habe ich nochmal gedüngt, werde aber die Tage mit dem spülen beginnen und die Pflanze auf die Ernte vorbereiten. Die Trichome sind fast komplett trüb und milchig. Die Pflanze bildet massive dichte Blüten, weshalb mir die Verfärbung einzelner Blätter am Headbud bisschen Sorge bereitet. Dies werde ich die nächsten Tage genauer beobachten. Wir beginnen nun mit der 8. Blütenwoche. An Tag 64 wurde die Pflanze gedüngt. Nährstofflösung: 2 ml/l - B-52 Advanced Nutrients. 4 ml/l - pH Perfect Sensi Bloom Part A 4 ml/l - pH Perfect Sensi Bloom Part B 2 ml/l - Bud Candy Advanced Nutrients. 2 ml/l - Overdrive Advanced Nutrients. Davon hat die Pflanze 1l an Tag 64 erhalten.

She is much prettier than she was a week ago :) I remembered that I have my first grow light, which is more compact and it will give me more space, so I changed my light, now the girl's side branches get light too:) I add a lot of video memes, because I really want to win Iphone16 pro ;) and those who don't take risks don't drink champagne:) good luck to everyone.
