2024-07-23 A few months ago, I germinated three opium poppy seeds. Each seedling was given a different setup: 1. Outdorgrow in a 30L container 2. Outdoorgrow in a 75L container 3. Indoorgrow in a 30L Airpot This post focuses on the indoor plant, which was trained using various techniques such as mainlining, topping, LST (Low Stress Training), and some supercropping. The indoor plant thrived from the beginning, showing vigorous and healthy growth. It responded well to training, consistently displaying a robust appearance. Its growth seemed effortless, requiring only adequate water and minimal nutrients. Training began with topping and continued for 9 weeks during the vegetation phase. The main technique used was mainlining, shaping the plant into a circle using pipe cleaners. The plant's soft stems and branches made it easy to train without causing stress. After 9 weeks of vegetative growth and training, I was satisfied with the result and initiated the flowering phase. The plant continued to flourish, primarily needing water and care. Only a few NPK feedings were necessary, but it received many beneficial supplements with watering. The growing medium used was Terra Preta MJ-Mix, and I applied a mycorrhizal inoculant called DYNOMYCO. This significantly enhanced root development and nutrient breakdown. Essentially, And i applied aTodpressing with Insectfrass, so they stayed lovely green. I was feeding the microorganisms in the Terra Preta mix, which in turn kept the plant healthy. The plant developed beautiful colas while maintaining its circular shape. Harvesting was straightforward. The aroma was fruity (reminiscent of apricot) with a strong, gassy undertone. The buds are currently curing. I've taken photographs of the plant's "skeleton" and some pre-cured buds, showcasing the impressive trichome development. The OutdoorPlants are still growing, and the Diary will continue

"¡Finalmente llegó el momento de la cosecha de mi Lemon Mandarin de 420FastBuds! Esta planta ha sido un verdadero placer desde el inicio hasta el final. La genética autofloreciente mostró su resistencia, y no tuve mayores complicaciones durante todo el proceso de cultivo. Las flores tienen una estructura densa y pegajosa, llenas de tricomas que dan un brillo impresionante. El aroma es increíblemente fresco, con notas cítricas que se combinan con un toque dulce a mandarina, ¡sin duda, una mezcla deliciosa! Estoy muy satisfecho con los rendimientos y la calidad de la cosecha. El efecto es equilibrado, ideal para disfrutar tanto de día como de noche. ¡Sin duda volveré a cultivar Lemon Mandarin en el futuro! Un gran trabajo de 420FastBuds, como siempre."

Plants are starting to be full of flowers but one thing I do not explain is why the plant in the middle has a main bud that is actually quite thin.

I really enjoy growing and this strain is one I've spent a lot of time on. This is my largest harvest of Gelato Cake and it was only 1 plant, I have harvested 5 at once and just equaled what this one plant did. I feel really good about it thanks to the GD community for the support and diaries to learn from

I'm just getting around to uploading for the week of 9/5 Unfortunately I haven't had the time that I hoped I would when I made the video, but I'm glad I made it so I don't have to remember everything😵 Went in and defoliated inner branches Top dressed with Down to Earth Minerals 4-4-4, Good Girl got about a cup (as did all the other photoperiods) but Problem Child got 2 since she's such a heavy feeder. I decided to do a granular because of how much rain we've been getting, I really don't need to water and I didn't want to swamp them. And it also saves time. Problem Child is continuing to improve and Good Girl is flowering like a champ.

Hello everyone and welcome to week 9 and finally the harvest time! The road has ended for my sweet Auto Whiteberry which ran so quickly and fast that i did not expected to finish so soon. She is easy to grow despite my overnute mistake and she still managed to pull it through which is great. Kinda wished she grew bigger but i noticed the roots didn't grow much so maybe something wrong with the way i water? Next time I'm gonna try to give more distance to the light so it can stretch even longer and bigger i guess... Unfortunately I can't give a smoke report for now because its still curing and I plan on having a sample of it on my birthday which is the 27 and by that time it will be more than a month of curing and should be perfect right. My real goal tho is letting it cure for 3 months so i can can run another grow cycle and by that time when the harvest comes i wanna start smoking of my own stuff slowly and the continue every new grow cyle while the previous one is curing. Not sure if that makes sense but i think you all get what i mean haha The big bud you all see is the Auto Whiteberry from grow tent 😁 Having a new grow soon in the pc and it's another and last Auto Whiteberry seed that i had left so i am gonna do my best to get it even better than this one. Thank you all for the love and support and just simply passing by and taking a look at my work means a great deal for me. Stay safe and bless you all 🙏

She recovered from the adjustments and the soil being in better conditions for nutrients uptake she continued with her growth normally. I reintroduced the microbial system by watering with a compost tea I made. I then reintroduced nutes to her feed all while making sure all solutions given were at the ideal Ph and PPMs. I mostly use RO water with 5.2 Ph/ 32 PPM so after the flush I gave days to the soil to dry back then for the next watering I had to ph up around 5.8 to 6.3 to tackle the high ph issue in my medium. Gradually we came back to range with the last watering I checked and we were around 6.5 ph/ 1089 PPM which is ideal for where I want my soil to be. Around day 38 she started showing pistils on a few tops. By the end of the week I could tell she had officially entered her flowering stage. I didn’t defoliate this week, I wanted to give time to the plant to recover. I instead did some LST by the end of the week to open up the canopy a little more. I love how everything is going I’m grateful for the knowledge I’m learning along the way. Take care of your loved ones happy growing

This has been a fun week for this Cheese from Humboldt, it has made a mini flower on one of its fan leaves and a bee got wrecked in one of its flowers. I want to say it got stoned, but no idea if they can, the bee was super chill I could pet it and get real close with the macro lens, it did not care one bit. It could have been injured from something else like a predator or pesticide but she was gone by the following evening. Other then that nothing to new, the plant is growing nicely and I have no complaints about it. I keep comparing the smell from it to the other cheese variety from Dinafem I'm growing and they are different but I cant yet focus in on how, will be better adept at doing this once they are both in flower, I got high hopes for both plants. Added in the standard 2 week fertilizer Acti-Sol Tomato & Vegetable 4-6-8, had it fortified into the soil from the get go so did not add extra it in till now. About one month out.

Приветствую всех, кто следить за мной. Ваша поддержка очень важна для меня. На следующий день после того как я обновил прошлую неделю дневника наступило время пересадить растения в более крупное ведро. Я покажу вам как использовать дешовые пивные стаканы для пересадки ваших растений. Вы можете посмотреть это на первом видео. Когда я пересаживал растения я дополнительно добавил микоризу в большое ведро. Мои АК-47 показывают сативный фенотип, поэтому они были слишком высоки, поэтому я был вынужден поместить стебель растения как можно глубже и заполнить его, чтобы корни начали расти из него позже. Я также срезал первую пару непродуктивных листьев и побегов с них. Если вам интересно следить за приключениями травки в России.

Day 57. All goes the best for this girl. How she looked on third week and now - is very nice improvement. Strain is very strong and resiliant to growers mistakes ;))) Mars Hydro TS1000 is dimmed to approximately 80%, great light no doubts , BUT i think i found one issue. That cover sink makes air circulation harder and it looks like she produces a lot more heat when is running on max output. Will take surface thermometer from work next week to check this. Ill post denial if i was stupid, but looks like 240W quantum runs colder than 150 upside down sink version. Yesterday girl got 3 liters of pure 6.3 ph water. No feeding in plans for at least two weeks. Happy Growing !!!

Thanks to growdiaries I followed the entire growing stages of the plant seeing all the little details usually not seen. Sincerly I expected more than 30g with the nutriens and light utilised anyway it is a good result.

did all the topping I plan to do and she's responding just fine. found a touch of fuzz on the old seed pod forming on the rockwool and removed it, as well as snipping off the internodal leaves that had some brown spots... and now she's clean and symmetrical! very definitely an improvement from a couple weeks ago :) did not do a full nutrient swap this week, so no pics or videos of the root system just yet... maybe mid week. tuned back the nutes just a tiny bit (mixed same nute in 1700 ml instead of 1500). not sure why, mostly instinct and to help keep it small (the whole point, really). she's fun to grow! if you've never tried a desktop nano grow... i highly recommend it 😊👌😺
