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

3/3 Gelat.OG are doing great. One is a bit taller than the other (which is in the top). Makes sense since the lights are focused in the middle... I will grow only 3 plants next time instead of 4. They’re also drinking about 2.5 gal of water every 5-6 days. They look very healthy and I’ve somewhat defoliated and lollipopped slightly. I do little by little as I go to prevent shock.

My suspicions of some kind of infection with the plant on the right was confirmed this week and I learned a new word "fasciation"...it's all over the internet but i've never heard of this before now...the plant continues to look worse and worse no matter what i do, a few of the older clones are starting to do the same thing so i threw them all out...The plant on the left looks on track with maybe 2 1/2 weeks to go..

Had to chop the Mexican airlines because it hermie hard, no doubt it’s because of the stress I put it under when I accidentally snapped it lol, it’s drying now will update it once it’s finished! Blue gelato has hermie’d, this whole grow has been a mess I’ve not given them the attention they need and half arsed all the plants. Going to leave the Runtz go for a bit longer because I’ve not seen any signs of it turning yet, finger crossed🤞

The temperatures, humidity, and watering volume(if measured) in grow conditions are all averaged for the week. The pH is soil pH. Any watering done by me is well water which is 7.6 pH and 50° F. Any listed nutrients are ml/gallon of soil. Day 1 we had high temperature of 89 with mostly sunny skies. I watered 2-3 gallons per pot. Day 2 we had a high temperature of 90°F with clear, sunny skies. I watered 2-2.5 gallons from the hose. Day 3 we had a high temperature of 97°F with mostly sunny skies. It was a scorcher. I watered 2-3 gallon twice today from the hose. Day 4 we had high temperature of 95°, but it felt like 102°. Skies were partly cloudy. I watered 2-3 gallons twice today. Day 5 we had rain the previous night and early morning. We had cloudy skies, with high temperature of 81°F. I did not water today. I added 50ml of blood meal top dressed to each pot. Day 6 we had a high temperature of 87°F and mostly sunny skies. I watered 2-3 gallons. Day 7 we had partly cloudy skies and a high temperature of 86°F. I watered 2-3 gallons each pot

Okay so I’ve been slacking a bit on the grow-diaries, only because I’ve had a lot going on and also because I don’t feel obligated to do so because this isn’t a sponsored grow. It’s been nice to have a little break but I think I’m ready to come back at it full force again. These girls are living their best lives, they are all the same age and they are all thriving. Floraflex nutrients, as well as some Silica, Regina-root, and a trichome enhancer called “Grease”!! Seems like the real deal. Watering every other day and let me tell you these girls are very thirsty. Defol as needed! My new HLG Blackbird lamp fixture is out of this world. My 3 autos that you can also find in my profile absolutely blew up. I typically fit 4 autos in my 3x3 but now it’s essentially one Purple punch from Fastbuds and I had to cram 2 more inside basically because they are going crazy. Unfortunately I had to move them from under the blackbird and put them under a HLG350R and they are still going crazy. Basically what I’m saying is HLG Lamps=Crazy growth and amazing lamps!! HLG has a lifetime customer! That’s it for now but check in next week to see the progress! Thanks for tuning in. Until next time and as always, Stay Smokey my Friends!!! 💨💨💨 Instagram: Virginia_nugz_540 Sponsors: Horticulture Lighting Group HLG-Blackbird HLG-600RSpec HLG-350R Diablo (X2) Discount code: Virginia_Nugz Petra Tools LTPRO 2.0 Backpack Sprayer Trimbag Standard Trimbag Discount Code: Virginia_nugz Fastbuds Fastbuds Genetics Goat and Monkey Hydrokulture Store 4x4 Gorilla Tent

03.08.21 Moin Growmies hab mir in der letzten Woche Gedanken gemacht zu meinem Vorhaben mit den Tomatenringen und mir ist aufgefallen das die Ladys nicht Grad gleichmäßig wachsen ,das liegt sicherlich daran das ich Depp wieder schlauer sein wollte und ein paar Seitenäste dran gelassen habe sprich beim ersten topping hätte ich alles entfernen sollen bis auf die 2 Triebe von der 3. Nodie und ich hab die 2 nodie mit stehen lassen weil ich dachte ich bin schlauer 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬ich könnte mich selber schlagen für die Dummheit naja Ergebniss des ganzen ist ungleichmäßiges Wachstum somit kann ich die Sache mit den Tomaten Ringen vergessen.......... Hab jetzt aber mein System noch einmal überarbeitet andere Topferhöhung ( 2x alte Bilderrahmen aus Holz auf Paletten Balken geschraubt und mit Hühner Draht bespannt das ganze auf Steine gestellt damit ich ne Wanne darunter stellen kann für abtropfwasser) den Rahmen vom scrogg netzt wieder raus gesammelt und neu bespannt ( Rahmen 90x90 cm aus nem alten Pavillon Gestell zurecht gesägt und mit Zaun bespannt die Abstände zwischen den einzelnen Rauten beträgt 6 cm sollte ausreichend Platz für die Triebe sein) habe das ganze gestern auf einer Höhe von 16 cm über dem Topfrand eingebaut mit Kabelbindern an den Zeltstangen befestigt somit hängt es an seiner Position fest und kann nicht von den Pflanzen hoch gedrückt werden wenn sie in die Blüte geht. Also is nun doch wieder ein sqrogg draus geworden aber den Ladys geht es insgesamt gut sie wachsen und gedeihen und wirken insgesamt gesund in den nächsten Wochen werde ich nun die Ladys in das netzt weben und Mal sehen was sie von scrogging Alla Milchschnitte halten. Ach ja die purps aus dem Garten sind anscheinend direkt nach dem umtopfen in den Stretch zur Blüte gegangen war ein bisschen spät dran fürs raus setzten aber lässt sich jetzt nicht ändern Mal sehen was draus wird,vll ja ein Gummibärchen Baum 😏😉 hab den outdoor Ladys gestern nen kleinen Regenschutz gebaut, is nicht der schönste aber er sollte seinen Zweck erfüllen damit der Topf Mal abtrocknen kann das Wetter ist seit fast 14 Tagen hart wechselhaft und der Topf noch nicht 1x richtig trocken gewesen das war's eigendlich was bis heut passiert ist cu Growmies und euch noch viel Erfolg........

WEEK 5 START OF DAY 28 FROM SEED THE NUTRIENTS LISTED ARE NOT WHAT I USE. I ONLY LISTED THEM TO GET NOTICED IN SUB CATEGORIES. CORRECT NUTRIENTS LISTED 👇 Transplanted to final 5 gallon pots. Ran into a problem toward the end. I ran out of coco with 2 pots to go. So I will probably do another transplant after going to the store today and getting another bag of coco. Fed at half strength—— Front Row AG Part A 3.5g per gallon Front Row AG Part B 2g per gallon Front Row AG Phoszyme .4g per gallon Front Row AG Triologic 1ml per gallon Front Row AG Si .5ml per gallon Everything went well but my room runs on an auto feed system and if the promix ho will not drain like the pure coco bags so I’m gonna replace tonight.

July 27th, 43 days post flip. Clones: I think at this point they are done growing. I keep having to super crop and twist and intertwine the branches beneath the light. At this point it has formed almost a bed in nature. I have some burnt leaves and tips but I’m not worried, I will have plenty of buds Plant number 2 has my favorite bud structure so far, close spacing and more modern. Plant number 3 seems to be an in between of 2 and 4 Plant number 4, the gigantic one, has these spear like buds. I suspect this may be the most primitive of the bunch and am looking forward to smoking it Plants finally starting to develop some distinct smells when I touch them. The one is very citrusy in nature Going to continue to give nothing but water, I may give some cal mag and maybe a little potassium but will see. Due to the fact that these grew above the light I’m looking at supplemental lighting I could run during the grow. Parents: Completely recovered from their topping two weeks ago. Going to continue to water and keep them happy God bless!

Growing like weeds. Nutrients in the water has certainly helped. Had a problem with the spray valves getting clogged. cleaned them out and installed an inline filter to prevent debris from getting pumped into the system.

https://lumatek-lighting.com/ <3 <3 <3 Growers love to you all <3 <3 <3 Tropicana Cookies Auto is the perfect variety for growers of all levels, especially beginners as this strain performs very well outdoors and indoors, and can produce up to 500gr/m2 in 56-63 days without needing extra maintenance. Reaching up to 110cm, this strain grows fairly tall with medium-sized branching, showing its mixed heritage. Definitely the right choice for those with a high tolerance looking to get their hands on the strongest autoflowers out there. Thanks to the 27% THC, you can expect an extremely powerful and long-lasting high that’ll boost your mood and give you that extra push you need to start your days on the right foot. This variety offers the whole range of citrusy and woody flavors with a strong candy-sweet background that will keep you coming back for more and more. Bud description Tropicana Cookies Auto produces gorgeous dark purple flowers, so expect really dark buds with gorgeous hues of pink, purple and blue, and thick dark-orange hairs that get completely covered in resin by harvest time, giving them an almost shiny-white appearance. This variety develops a typical Indica-like structure and very few sugar leaves that will make your trimming sessions a breeze. But make sure to store your trimmings as the gorgeous flowers reek of a mouth-watering blend of lemon peels, orange juice, and sandalwood that gives it almost a citrus candy-like flavor that makes for the most aromatic hash and extractions.Smoke report Thanks to the 27% THC, Tropicana Cookies Auto’s effect starts with an energizing head rush that gets your mind up and running while leaving you in a nice calm state.

You can expect a stocky yet tall main cola with medium-sized side branches and thin fan leaves that fade into a yellowish hue with a beautiful dark purple tint. Thanks to the excellent selection, this variety develops a short internodal spacing that makes the medium-sized flowers look like they’re growing stacked on top of each other. It’s the ideal choice for growers who want to get big yields without having to deal with huge plants, as this monster yielder can produce up to 150g per plant while growing relatively short. Grow tips This variety grows super dense buds so make sure to space out the branches by tying them down, this way you improve airflow which helps prevent mold and other pests. Tropicana Cookies auto reek of a delicious sweet and sour smell so make sure to flush thoroughly to enhance the aromas even more. This terpene heavyweight finishes with lots of resinous sugar leaves that make for fantastic hash and extractions so remember to have your trim bucket ready!Flavor Tropicana Cookies Auto boasts remarkably sweet flavors that resemble a blend of lemon peels and fresh orange juice, with subtle floral undertones that make it the perfect choice for extractors looking for unique terpene profiles. Expect an overall citrusy zest that’ll coat your whole mouth and leave a delicious tropical candy-like flavor aftertaste. The sweet and sour flavors get balanced out with a herbal background that gets stronger as you exhale and gradually opens up, bringing out the whole range of woody, floral, and spicy flavors, making it the perfect choice for the most flavorful extracts.
