Biggest Autoflower Ever - Pineapple Express was the GOAT. 479 Grams Dry Weight, 78 Days from seed to Harvest Was a big surprise having almost a HALF KILOGRAM FROM AUTOFLOWER, Always thought 500 grams per square meter description was a legend but no, IT CAN BE TRUE Good luck to all my grower fellas, I will not stop on growing in hydro, even tho half of this run was in handmade hydro. It was my third hydro Grow and I see the Improvement Last one was only 300 Grams dry weight Strawberry Banana from FB Pinepple Express itself is a 10/10 strain, it says mostly Indica but feels like the best Sativa I have ever tried, great pineapple smell and taste, hits like Mike Tyson, perfect strain and YUMMY as hell, loved it, will grow it again probably as it's not only mine favorite strain. Cheers Fellas, good grows and big yields to everyone!

9/15 12AM MONDAY. HEAVY AMINO EXPERIMENT WAS GOOD. EC WAS 1.3 HIGH BUT WORKED, LITTLE BURNS BUT I DEIGNED THEM TO WORK UNDER THESE CONDITIONS. 9/16 1:30AM!!!!!! Analysis of Your Grow Progress Cookie Apple F1 Auto (Mid-Late Flower): Butter Frosting Resin: The thicker, smoother resin suggests peak terpene and flavonoid production, likely driven by your 200 mg/L phenylalanine and 125 mg/L glutathione from the heavy amino spray. The “butter” texture could indicate high myrcene or limonene, enhanced by FruitnFusion (0.5 mL/L) and Purpinator (0.5 mL/L) (‽web:5, ‽web:10). This is a sign of top-tier flavor and potency. Next: Monitor for overfeeding (minor tip burn persists)—consider diluting amino acids to 100–150 mg/L each in the next 2 L mix to sustain resin without stress.Conclusion The “butter frosting” resin on Cookie Apple F1, healthy yellow-green fusiform, and Blueberry KO’s pigmented cotyledons show your anthocyanin-glutathione-phenylalanine strategy is working—phenylalanine drives synthesis, glutathione ensures transport. Tweak amino acids to 100–150 mg/L to reduce tip burn.👍👍. 9/16 926am COOKIE APPLE LOOKS LIKE 3 STICKS OF BUTTER!!!!!! WOW!!! 9/163:45AM I BUILT A TIME MACHINE!!!!! GOING TO TELL THE GERMANS TO FIGHT HARDER👍 That is a practical effect...no computers no grok just AWESOMETASTIC ME!!!!! 9/17 3PM sorry it didn't work... :( 9/18 3:25AM Kitten Academy live stream, no commercials https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3YdBqqDLQk 9/18 11:45AM Mixed up Aminos first and separate and used 16 oz for foliar spray. Then mixed up: Root: 1.5 mL/L Connoisseur A & B Bloom, 0.25 mL/L CaliMagic, .5 mL/L Purpinator, .5 mL/L FloraNectar. Setria Glutathione: 150 mg/L = 300 mg (Brand: Emerald 250mg capsule.) TMG: 150 mg/L = 300 mg/L (Brand Nutricost) Phenylalanine: 150 mg/L = 300 mg/L. (Brand Nutricost) Proline: 150 mg/L = 300 mg/ (Brand Nutricost). 9/19 10:30AM EC 1.1 Foliar Spray pH 5.8 Phenylalanine: 250 mg/L Setria Glutathione: 250 mg/L Brand: Emerald 250mg capsule. ROOT: cut above in half and Root: 1.5 mL/L Connoisseur A & B Bloom, 0.25 mL/L CaliMagic, 1 mL/L Purpinator, 1 mL/L FloraNectar. 9/19 316PM BETTER THAN I COULD HAVE IMAGINED!!!!! THE SPRAY FOLLOWED BY ROOT A FEW HOURS LATER. RESIN IS GREAT, FLOWERS ARE FORMING JUST PERFECT. RESIN IS LIKE BUTTER VERY SOFT SMOOTH AND SMELLS BETTER THAN ANY OTHERS IVE DONE. THE SPRAY WAS USED ON 5 & 6 DAY OLD PHOTOPERIOD SEEDLINGS , AND 2 WEEK AUTOS, AND JUST SPROUTED SWISS CHARD, BASIL, AND A FEW OTHERS LIKE THAT WITH NO DAMAGE!!! IMAGIINE WHAT THIS COULD DO WITH CORN OR RICE AND WITH NITROGEN EFFICIENCY AT MAXIMUM. AMINOS MAN, WOW. IM SOFA KING AWESOME OR RE-TODD IT, WHICHEVER IS FUNNIER. 👽👍😎 9/20 CA1 sample, smells PERFECT &FRESH ALMOST LIKE SOME MAD AS HATTER FIGURED OUT A WAY TO INCREASE TERPENES THROUGH NOVEL AND PROBABLY BORDERLINE GENIUS, OR AT LEAST BORDERLINE SOMETHING WAYS.....THIS GUY MOTHERFUCKERS!!!!! 9/21 10AM Based on information for cannabis plants and the recommended dose for Setria Glutathione, the nitrogen content from 250 mg each of phenylalanine and Setria Glutathione is minimal compared to the required macro- and micro-nutrients for an autoflower plant in its 6th week of flowering. Here is an analysis of the nitrogen content and the role of these substances. Phenylalanine analysis Phenylalanine is an amino acid, and like all amino acids, it contains nitrogen. Formula: The chemical formula for phenylalanine is (C_{9}H_{11}NO_{2}).Molecular weight: The molar mass is approximately 165.19 g/mol.Nitrogen contribution: Each molecule contains one nitrogen atom. The atomic weight of nitrogen is 14.01 g/mol.Calculation:The percentage of nitrogen in phenylalanine is ((14.01/165.19)times 100approx 8.48%).The amount of nitrogen in a 250 mg dose of phenylalanine is (250text{ mg}times 0.0848approx 21.2text{ mg}). Setria Glutathione analysis Setria Glutathione is a reduced L-glutathione compound, which is a tripeptide composed of three amino acids: L-cysteine, L-glutamic acid, and glycine. Formula: The chemical formula is (C_{10}H_{17}N_{3}O_{6}S).Molecular weight: The molar mass is approximately 307.32 g/mol.Nitrogen contribution: Each molecule contains three nitrogen atoms.Calculation:The percentage of nitrogen in Setria Glutathione is (((3times 14.01)/307.32)times 100approx 13.68%).The amount of nitrogen in a 250 mg dose of Setria Glutathione is (250text{ mg}times 0.1368approx 34.2text{ mg}). Summary of total nitrogen The total nitrogen contributed by both supplements is: (21.2text{ mg (from phenylalanine)}+34.2text{ mg (from glutathione)}=55.4text{ mg N})When dissolved in 2 liters of water, this results in a concentration of (27.7text{ mg N per liter}).

What up Grow Fam. Weekly update on these beauties. They've stopped the stretching part and now started focusing on flower sites. Seeing the flowers swell almost daily is wild to watch. I started to drop the night temps down to low 60's and around 70 with the lights on. All in all Happy Growing

week 7 first flowering week when I finally discovered my princess was actually a prince. 12/12 flowermind ferts (6ml + 0.5g) LST + defoliation started seeing some thrips again, but just a few, nothing to worry so, the plant stayed for 4 weeks in the tent, under COB LED 200W.

Start of flowering, week 1, day 29 for plants 2 & 3. Plant 1 will stay in veg, following same feed schedule as previous week's, but she will no longer be included in this diary. Plants 2 and 3 look very healthy and I trimmed several lower branches as they were getting minimal light.

Never heard of weedseedsexpress before coming to grow diaries. Saw the contest as a great opportunity to try new seeds, and I was very surprised with the outcome. 100% germination rate, super strong plants, easy to grow, when it comes to pests and plagues, also performed well... even tho one was chopped because of becoming hermie, didn’t had any other issues with it. They like space to grow! And taking 2kg from 5 plants, to me, it’s an absolute record! I’ll definitely wanna try now more of @weedseedsexpress and recommend you guys to try them too. Weed has been drying now for 4 days, so, pretty soon I’ll be able to add the final weight!

🌱 Week 2: Mutant Magic in Full Swing! 🌱 Hey Grow Fam! Another week, another step forward in the adventure with these Mentha de Croco beauties. Week 2 has been nothing short of fascinating—the variety in leaf shapes is absolutely mesmerizing. These tiny mutants are already showing their unique personality, and I’m loving every second of watching them grow! 🌿✨ Tent Conditions: Consistency is Key The setup remains the same as last week, keeping these little ones in the perfect environment to thrive: • Temperature: Stable, warm conditions for steady growth. • Humidity: Maintaining high RH ensures they’re still enjoying tropical vibes as their root systems develop. • Lighting: The Future of Grow (FOG) LED at 200 PPFD continues to deliver just the right amount of light to keep the plants growing compact and strong. Nutrition: Introducing the Organic-Mineral Boost 🌿 This week, I started feeding the plants with the incredible Aptus Holland organic-mineral line. It’s been a game-changer, and here’s why I love it: What’s Organic-Mineral Nutrition? • Combines the benefits of organic matter (microbial health and soil vitality) with the efficiency of mineral nutrients (direct uptake by plants). • Supports balanced, steady growth while boosting plant resilience. This Week’s Feeding Schedule: • Regulator (0.15 ml/L): A silica-based product that strengthens plant structure and helps regulate stress, ensuring the plants stay strong and sturdy. • CalMag Boost (0.25 ml/L): Calcium and magnesium are essential for cell wall development and chlorophyll production, supporting lush, vibrant growth. • All-in-One Liquid (1 ml/L): A comprehensive blend that delivers all the essential nutrients in one easy feed, perfect for these little mutants finding their stride. • Start Booster (0.25 ml/L): Packed with root-stimulating microbes and nutrients, this product ensures strong root development and prepares the plants for explosive growth in the coming weeks. Why Aptus? I’ve been a huge fan of Aptus Holland because their line truly focuses on building strong, healthy plants from the ground up. The results speak for themselves—happy plants, explosive growth, and vibrant health at every stage. true believer here and way before being sponsored by them . Mutant Leaf Love: Celebrating the Unique 🌿 The highlight of this week has to be the unique leaf patterns these plants are developing. Each one seems to have its own story to tell—serrated edges, funky symmetry, and a whole spectrum of textures. They’re tiny but mighty, and it’s so exciting to see the potential of these genetics from Terpyz Mutant Genetics come to life. Mutants always bring surprises, and it’s a beautiful reminder that diversity is what makes this journey so rewarding. Reflections & Tips for Fellow Growers 💡 💚 Feed Lightly, Grow Strong: For young plants, keep your feed gentle to avoid overloading them. Start slow and adjust as they grow. 🌱 Celebrate Differences: Each plant will grow at its own pace, and unique traits are part of the magic. Patience is key! 💧 Stay Consistent: The foundation you build in these early weeks sets the tone for the entire grow. Stable conditions = happy plants. Shoutouts & Grower’s Love 💚 Big thank you to @Terpyz Genetics for these funky mutant seeds, @Aptus Holland for their stellar nutrition lineup, @Future of Grow for the lighting that keeps these beauties thriving, @Pro Mix Soil for the best one i have encountered so far and @Grow Diaries for being an amazing platform to share this journey.

Day 49: last day of nutrition for the fast eddy, which seems to be almost ready already. Stoppage of pk 13/14, day 49. day 50: 2 week rinse for all. ⚠️ My led lamp is a Prima Klima - LED Shuttles 6 dimmable 240W, I am very satisfied with this lamp (check out my other diaries). which I recommend, but which unfortunately is not in the list proposed on growdiaries

small timelapse more comments and good pictures follow up, slowly my eyes are going better and better and I can come back to fully commitment again. Plant 1: Topping and LST done by scrogging Plant 2: Heavy LST on Mainstem and LST done by scrogging Plant 3: smallest plant, done nothing stunted early by a bit to much nutients + water (seed poped 3 days later treated the same because no time). Loads of fun right now with those plants and just for refence guys its JUST a 5Liter pot!!!!

Both clones are Hermi they have had low stress at most havent a clue to why they turned hermi there momma was female 100 percent .ive managed to find all bulbs over 20 throught the plants and plucked them out last week but today i found 2 open male flowers pinched them off tightly hoping not to spread or let any pollin get airborn .Crossing my fingers i havent missed any male parts . Other than that these plants got over 5' tall durring the stretch .only expected them to reach 4' must be because they turned hermi there going to produce alot of long fat buds if i can keep the male flowers from opening its alot to monitor so probably impossible to do so but ive got to try' The june heat of summer is brutal cant keep my day temp under82 and when it does my rh goes up to 59 only have a swamp cooler and it doesnt get under 79 in the room outside the tent so my lights run at night and go dark during the hottest time of day wich is 80 at best for july and auga😡st are my worst months without A/C its 105 outsid now and will climb to 120+ in aug. ill be lucky if theres any trycombs left by mid july when its ready to harvest .

I defoliated the Plant for the first time and adjusted the LST to the growth of the plant. I found the first white pistils shooting out from the plant which shows me she is ready to go into flower. Until now i am very happy with the progress, still no issues :)

doing great. we can see, Lance is a little behind, but he´s the one who got some issues in the first 2 weeks.
