Day 84 - June 25 June 25 - 09.30AM Trichomes still not ready at 50/50 milky to cloudy. Soil is still moist. Will water either late this evening or tomorrow morning. I suspect this will be the second or last watering before chop. June 25 - 09.00PM Removed a dead leaf - I want to remove some of the dying leaves on the colas, as underside of plant has a beautiful purple hue to the leaves. June 26 - 08.45AM Trichomes are starting to turn milky, with 60/40 milky to cloudy ratio. Will water this evening as pot is getting lighter + soil isn't as moist. June 26 - 01.20PM Purple is here. I think it's time to chop tomorrow as I'm seeing more ambers. I'm noticing some bright green growth which I hope isn't the start of nanners. June 26 - 01.20PM Watered 3L. Chop tomorrow. June 27 - 00.00AM CHOPPED (Day 86). . June 27 - 00.00AM Inspected detached calyx with strange (I suspect pistil) growth. Many amber trichomes found. Strange, given colas I inspected were all cloudy with no amber, but this calyx (located at centre of plant) had plenty of amber trichomes. Perhaps this is due to recieving a higher than expected DLI at hotspot of light. . June 27 - 00.00AM Underside of Buds are underdeveloped in comparison - easily due to light blockage. I aimed not to defoliate as she entered flower, but perhaps with better LST and leaf tucking I could've produced more even yield. . June 27 - 00.00AM Trimmed Fan leaves and mostly necrotic foliage - want to avoid bud-rot at all costs, but I may have over-defoliated. . June 27 - 00.00AM Drying hanging upside down with oscilating fan above (2/10) and one beneath driving air toward a wall of the tent. There's also an extraction fan at the top of the tent. . June 27 - 00.00AM Humidity 60-62% & Temperature 64-66F. . June 27 - 02.45PM Temperature is rising in the tent to 69F, inside a sealed bathroom room. Sealed Bathroom offers no light leakage, but I might need to open the door and allow light + cool air in. . June 27 - 03.45PM Moved tent out of bathroom to get cooler air. Tent temperature was just under 70F. I've likely lost some flavour over a few hours - but now that it's in a cooler environment (with slight light leakage) - things should improve. . June 27 - 03.45PM Temperature & Humidity are 66F and 60% respectively. . June 27 - 04.00PM (16 hours since chop) . June 27 - 04.05PM Added portable cooling unit to intake, this should drop temperature by a degree or two hopefully. Ensured Fans weren't directly in path of buds. . June 27 - 04.30PM Humidity is 66%, I've increased oscilating fan speed to 5/10 to combat this. . June 27 - 08.50PM Humidity is 60%. Temperature is 66F . July 1 - 09.00PM Branches still bend - not snap. Will trim and start cure process tomorrow. Leaves shrivelled up. . July 2 - 10.00AM Rough Trim, and placed into cure jars. 58% RH and 60% RH Probably should have harvested last night. Will maintain RH in jars via burping. Roughly 2oz (56g) of bud harvested.

6/29 I woke with a 100° fever again. All the other symptoms are fading so hopfully all this shit will be done with. I took some pictures and took a video. I was planning on FIMing or topping some of the Sour Moose but I decided to feed instead. The plants don't really look like they need anything which was why I was hesitant. I've fed once and due to the rain I haven't had to water. I fed the photos a pint each of 1tsp Grow Big and 3tsp Big Bloom per gallon. I fed the autos with a pint of 4 tsp per gallon big bloom. I'll check thing out tomorrow and see how it's going. I'm going to need to research autoflowers a little bit more and figure out what I should be doing feed wise if anything. My soil mixture is pretty hot and usually takes photos COMPLETELY through the veg state before showing ANY signs of deficiencies. 6/30 We are supposed to get a heat wave. It was 90° yesterday and it's pretty hot today. I decided to give the girls some water. The bags were still heavy but I wanted to make sure they got what they needed so I mixed up two gallons of water. I gave the clones like a powered bottle each which is 1.75 pints. I gave the rest of the girls half a powerade bottle. The bags were heavy so I didn't want to overdue it. The plants seemed to like the food I gave them. I also decided to FIM one of the Sour Moose. Everything seems to be looking good. I had to go around and tuck some of the branches on the clones under their cage. It went well and it seems like the plants are responding well. 7/1 Another very hot day. It's in the 80's topping at probably 90. Bags seem to be keeping their weight tbough. Normally I would be watering much more but the plants would be far bigger. I noticed two small leaves at the bottom of the 10th planet that have a septoria spot. I quickly exfoliated both bottom leaves that were affected and treated the plant with Plant Doctor at a rate of a half gallon to 1.5 tsp Plant Doctor. The extra 10th planet I checked also had several leaves infected with septoria. That plant was away from the cage and a dwarf so I just pulled it and disposed of it far away in the woods. If after another treatment of plant Doctor I see anything resembling septoria I will cull that one two. It's by far the smallest plant. Substantially smaller than her sisters. I'm not going to fight diseases this year. I went through everything and found a rolled up caterpillar on Rude Girl but luckily I was able to get the tip of the leaf off and dispatch the pillar that tried to escape. I'm hoping the FIM will take on the Sour Moose. Looks like it will. Boy these Autos are flowering like crazy! I watered everything. I mixed up a gallon and I had a half gallon already mixed up. I probably should've held off but everything looked dry despite being heavy. And this time last year I was watering like crazy. I need to research Autos a little more. I know they are significantly different and I'm sure underwatering isn't too good for them but I think they've got enough. 7/2 I held off watering today despite the ridiculously high temperatures. I'd rather underwater than overwater. These aren't like that plants I'm used to having this time of year. I'm used to having trees that are sucking up every little bit of moisture. These plants are significantly smaller and have received TONS of sheet rain prior to this heat spell. Since I watered yesterday (only a gallon and a half and a half gallon on the 10th planet) and the day before I decided against watering them again. Yesterday I just made a small ring around the plants. I've read that it's really easy to overwater autos. I went through everything again and everything LOOKS good. The autos are definately in flower. I'm going to feed when I water. Yesterday Banjo had a branch that looked like it was drooping a little bit but I watered it and now they all look happy. I hope they stay that way. I know it's supposed to be super hot today but I still don't want to over water. I also didn't want to treat the banjo auto with plant doctor. I know those plants are more sensitive and with the ONE spot on a very bottom leaf, I'm hoping that it is just something stupid that I can handle. Especially if I'm careful of how I water and I clean my watering can good. Maybe I'll put some mulch down or something to keep any spores that may be there from splashing up.. I don't know yet. I'll have to think about it. I'm also planning on feeding the autos the next time I water them. I guess it's time to give them a little bit of grow big with the big bloom and the kool bloom. Looking at the recommendation I read it said to feed the autos 2tsp Big Bloom, 1 tsp Grow Big and 1/8 tsp Liquid Kool Bloom. I know these are low does but I'm excited how they respond to the food. It will be nice to have a little early harvest. Even if they aren't real heavy yielders.

Verzeiht mir bitte, dass ich ne Woche im Verzug bin. Hatte gerade mal so viel Zeit, die Ladys nicht verdursten zu lassen und einmal war es sogar kurz vor knapp 😅 Muss bald unbedingt nochmal entlauben.

week intel: its time to harvest top buds! because my base nutrients and one of boosters was salt based, i'll do flushing this week to get some relieve to plants in the last days stresses : flushing Drought stress via watering only one time with flushing this week feeding: day 1 : i flushed them with Advanced Nutrients Flawless finish and adjusted ph day 3 : no more feeding from now on day 5 : no more feeding from now on guide of the week : i harvest in 2 parts : first i harvest top of the branches and will let the lower buds to ripe another week then ill harvest the second wave. its crucial to get uniformed buds in terms of quality that you let the lower buds to get some extra air and especially light! then the pop corn buds quality will reach the top buds. my dry and cure style is this: 3 days of hanging upside down to get water activity lower to around 0.6 in 50% humidity and 26 C temp (i know its a little high but we are in a hot summer right now and i cant get it lower even with air conditioner) and then after 3 days of drying i remove leaves and stalks, trim buds and move them to jar for the rest of their life :D . and in the first 4 days of curing i open the jar door and let hem get some fresh air in the jar for about 5 minutes and close the jar door again, after 4 days of curing like that buds are smokable but they will get better as they getting cured about 1 month. im happy as hell with this harvest :D.

Alright grow cycle, mistakes, improvements, etc... She did stay in veg for too long, her growth was slow and not the best and so she took quite long, next time i'll be there from the beginning so I can take care of her throughout. But her growth is really fun. It is a tall growing sativa with fairly tight noding when trained accordingly, producing long filled colas. The buds grow fairly dense and fluffly but do air out a little when dried. Trichome production was pretty impressive as well as terpene production. She had thrips since her early days but did not seem to mind them at all. I did spray them initially but once flower started I stopped. I believe predatory mites might have been feeding on the pupae in the soil, if that is what this specific species of thrips did, the reason I say that is I could never see adults only larvae. Whatever the case maybe they were there but the population never really increased. Something I did not mention during the grow is that those plants were played music during the days, music that is apparently developed for plants. The 10L pot was WAY too small for a true sustainable living organic and to provide enough space for the plant, that was a mistake, I'd say a 20L would be the bare minimum and still. The bigger the better. The hempy transfer did not hurt the plant and I believe even helped to some extent, BUT, I am still running test on the subject and so can't confirm anything, here are my observations Roots did not colonize the perlite, a little on top and the sides but that was it, I was expecting to see a big root mass in there. I believe hempy are great for salt fert as it hold a soup of nutes where the plant can feed from since the coco only holds very little Whereas in nature most nutrient are in the top soil where the highest amount of decomposition happens, this is where the highest microbial activity happens and so where the plant will find food. Living organic is trying to reproduce nature and so there is no need for the plant's roots to gather at the bottom of the pot. Although it could have potentially provided the plant access to a larger amount of water and possibly more oxygenation of the pot. Those are all theories, please speak up if you have other proofs. In conclusion , unless i get proven otherwise by someone or my latest running experiment , I will not be using hempies again as I believe it brings more complication and issues than a simple fabric pot. The lights, The 600w at the start was good, then I decided to add a 400w...😂 That was completely overkill and not necessary. Waste of electricity. And they started suffering from too much light it seems at some point, I raised the light by a good 30 cm and they were fine. 600 is more than enough. I am happy about how the soil performed but it has room for improvements. As for the watering technique I have been watering large ammount every few days, next time I will be giving constant small amount of water each day and a soak every week or so, I believe the soil might perform better under those conditions. She was also an easy plant to harvest whit her long colas which had very little foliage, I do trim in excess as I like my buds extra clean but the buds are not excessively bushy. The trims were use to make some bubble hash, around 100g of wet trims yielded around 1.5-2g of bubble hash. I did add a negative effect but only because it wouldn't give me a smile otherwise, but to be honnest it barely dries your mouth. The soil is going to be recycled and reused in a next grow. I can't think of anything else at the moment but if you have any question don't hesitate.

Hi I would like to introduce you to my first ever, cobbled together, but so far so good, growers' garden. I welcome and look forward to your ideas and advice. Germination done in between cotton pads. The one seed that didn't germinated was bigger and darker than the others(slightly).

End of week three and she’s looking excellent! I’m excited to be this so far along with a relatively deficiency free plant finally. I’m hoping these next 4-6 weeks or so are more of the same. I did a final defoliation today. Defoliated quite a bit under the net that would have been light deprived and also too heavy to where the limb would eventually flop over. I’m wondering if I should have defoliated more of the canopy. My thoughts are “more photosynthesis (leaves), more energy directed to really healthy and strong flower production” so I was hesitant to pull more leaves from the canopy. I did angle up the lower oscillating fan so that it would blow into the bottom of the canopy. Hopefully between that and maintaining a good flower VPD I’ll keep mold away. My past three grows it wasn’t an issue since most of the leaves were dying by now lol. The strains signature smell is just starting to develop. I’m noticing a citrusy/lemony smell.

Week 3: The plants have adapted very well to the new pots and didn’t show any signs of stunted growth. I decided to do some main-lining so they grow evenly and maintain their height. I won’t lie, I was a bit nervous, but everything seems to be going smoothly. I’ve also added a new oscillating fan to improve air circulation. Semana 3: Las plantas se adaptaron muy bien a las nuevas macetas y no mostraron signos de estancamiento en el crecimiento. Decidí hacerles main-lining para que crezcan de forma pareja y mantengan su altura. No voy a mentir, estaba nervioso, pero parece que todo va viento en popa. He incorporado un nuevo ventilador oscilante para mejorar la circulación del aire.

This week has been just keeping them happy/learning the needs of the grow room to keep a steady environment. The humidifiers are pushing hard to keep it at 65~70 so im sure once I bump the RH down next week It will be more manageable. I have to fill humidifier #1 once a day but have to keep a eye on #2. It picks up the slack but it runs out every few days. Will start feeding on Monday so the plant can take the days to start rooting in the new pots. If you live in the south Publix reusable bags are .99 and are great 5gl~ fabric pots. Will find bin to put in the bottom of tent to be able to water to run off but I have time for that.

Been trimming for past week. Lemon Cherry - 20g Chemdawg 73g Tropicana cookies - 83g Banana purple punch- 78g Total - 253grams Not bad. Buds were a bit on the smaller side. Room for improvement, however not a bad harvest for a 2.7x2.7 tent and relatively cheap set up. It was fun to grow and good learning experience. I hope to grow some more and see you guys in future diaries. Thanks!

Woche lief soweit ok. Die lsd-25 wird wohl die erste sein die fertig ist, gestern wurde gespült und in den nächsten tagen kommt sie für 48h ins dunkle. Die Mangelerscheinungen an den beiden mandarine sind nicht schlimmer geworden ,mal schauen wie sich das weiterhin auf die Blüten auswirkt.

22.04 1day 12/12 ола начало 5го дня 12/12. вижу дефициты - меняю бак. на 40л свежей воды из под крана в 200ppm по 100мл А/Б+30мл силиконики+20мл ph[-] итого: ppm 940 ph 5.6 ола 7дней 12/12 долил свежего 18градусного компота 40л прям перед поливом) и того в баке около 70л. на улице душанбе , в боксе тож жарковато, ну чую руками , что прибор подпёздывает и к тому же он под лампами, хоть и на уровне растих, пластик всё равно нагревается, поэтому там меньше 30 явно. так же для личного удобства сделал перестановку и чуть подзагнул всё таки хейзы, куча побегов открылось под свет. пол ещё не показали. мутант продолжает болеть, он сам выбрал свой путь, ещё шепнули что с виду оч сативный фенотип попался, и поэтому ебёт голову, мол сатива иначе кушает

Extrema producción de tricomas de esta variedad! Gran parte de los frutos lo usaré para extraer rosin, su resina se ve ideal para este propósito. Fragancia exquisita a ponche de fruta dulce, con notas ácidas y un fondo de especias. Como mencioné anteriormente dejaré la parte de la reseña de efectos, sabores y sensaciones para cuando los cogollos estén secos y curados, por ahora solo puedo apreciar lo que mi vista y olfato me permiten captar. Totalmente conforme por la calidad de estas flores y agradecido de los amigos de Sweet Seeds por la confianza. Será hasta la cata entonces, buenos humos!

Still just waiting patiently for her to be finished so I can see what she tastes like she smells pretty good
