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

This week I started to realize how much water these lady’s exactly started drinking they are getting so thirsty all the time I’m like non stop giving them water it feels like. They are getting super big Arnie the gal one with two tops is at 17” and helga the shorty with the booty jk. Is 10” but was topped on week 8 I believe so she’s trying to catch up and has been they both where popped from seedling at the same time but are totally different should be the same strain but have different characters about ones smell for sure I love smelling them. 👃

Week 11 has been exactly the same as week 10. There has been some light yellowing one Girl #1 and some of the hairs are starting to turn orange. The colas aren’t very dense. Girl#1 has been doing some weird fox tailing on all the colas.My temperatures haven’t been over 77 and my humidity hasn’t been over 55. I have seen this before in other diaries with other stains. Guess that’s just comes with the territory of ruderalis crossed strains. Can’t really complain cause this is my first rodeo with Autos so I’m just happy to have this experience. I officially think the delayed Pineapple Express auto might not even have the autoflower trait. It’s been 11 weeks and she hasn’t showed the slightest chance of ever flowering. This is really frustrating and deflating. I’m gonna definitely have to put this girl into 12-12. That will have to be after girl #1 is finished. I’m very appreciative of all who show your continued support and give insightful infomation. Can’t wait to see what this harvest will be. This is my first official auto grow. I wouldn’t change it at all. Thank you all for your support and time. More to come soon 💚👊

ordered 10 gallon pots for the 2 blue dream and pineapple express they are going into a different tent. Plan on replanting Friday. Autos all are doing fine, think I've been having issues with cal mag hopefully I can get it sorted out. All the plants are pretty big at this point except the gelato #33 its so small lol. Very crowed in a 4x4 and the plants need more room maybe moving the photos out will help the autos out and let them spread out more. Ordered some Recharge, excited to try out. I heard about it on dude grows lol great podcast 👏 Picked up some blue planet liquid seaweed and also their gold shield silica, also excited to try. Lastly got some Dynomyco to add in. Both blue dream and pineapple express are in their new home another 4x4 tent. Only running 1 halide at 400 watts and a small mars led. Will boost the light up significantly during flower with 1200 actual watts and change out to super lumen hps. Running a terrabloom carbon scrubber out of the second hid hood all powered by a 6 inch AC Infinity cloudline venting outdoors. Also using another 6 inch to bring in fresh air and have a portable ac to keep it nice and cool I think its important to mention after every grow I like to go in and clean out my tent. Vacuum up leaves/dirt, Wipe down all surfaces of the tent(I use paper towels and water in a spray bottle) and also clean off my lights. Wipe them down make sure the glass is cleaned(It makes a big difference). I grow strictly for my own personal consumption and I want the cleanest product.

Hi Guys, This week has been pretty good, the plant at the bottom right just seems to struggle her way through everything, she has loads of roots, they keep growing but for what ever reason she look plain ugly and grows very slowly above the water which is evident when looking at the photo lapse I have uploaded. I bought a Torus PH Perfect capsule which is a chemical free way of stabilising the PH, since that has gone in the brain bucket, I haven’t had to make any PH amendments yet. You can see it at the end of the video. They have all been topped for the 3rd and final time around D32-33. I will train some tips down so they don’t become dominant, but other than that, they’re gonna have a free week or so of growth with no more slicing or cutting before I flip them😊 Hopefully the ugly one will have bounced back by then and I can push forward into the transition with 6 healthy bushes.

Da ich mittlerweile eher der Meinung bin das meine Pflanzen etwas zu viel dünger bekommen haben gebe ich zur Zeit nur noch Wasser werde die auch bis zum Ende jetzt durchziehen (Spülung)........ Ach ja und diese Woche war hart die Temperaturen in der Box unten zu halten habe montag, dienstag und mittwoch in der beleuchtungs Phase das Zelt auf gehabt dadurch hatte ich 28,2 spitzen Temperatur 🌞 ziemlich hoch für die blüte Phase aber bei geschlossenem Zelt hatte ich morgens 32 Grad in der licht Phase da musste ich reagieren das problem an der nummer is das ich in einem Mehrfamilienhaus haus lebe mit 24 Parteien da gab es Dann schon auf meiner Etage komische Blicke Vor allem am Dienstag bin kurz einkaufen gegangen Zelt war offen und habe vergessen das Küchen fenster zu schließen komme wieder und mein Nachbar spricht mich an......... 😂🤣✌️ Das da ja ein sehr schöner Geruch aus meiner Küche kommt und ich sollte doch mal lieber mein Fenster schließen da er zwar kein Problem mit dem Geruch hat aber es ja noch andere Parteien im Haus gibt..... Puh😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰 mehr Glück als Verstand gehabt. Da ich aber auch den halben Tag dem Geruch von gras ausgesetzt bin nehme ich das auch nicht mehr so stark wahr wie andere.......

Alright so we on the start of a new week . A few things got adjusted last week height of the lamp , strength of my lamp , the nutrient regime has changed a little bit alternating between voodoo/b52 and Opti A&B/Cal mag . We also changed the lights to 12-12 so essentially this is a 12-12 from seed grow , I've always wanted to see the results so here we go :) I'd like to thank everyone that stops into the diary's both daily and weekly to check out the updates you guys are awesome keep on keeping on ! A special thank you goes out to all my followers for your continued support THANK YOU ! -Happy Growing!

The strain grows pretty easy. She can definitely eat a lot nutes but be careful into flowering her ph tends to swing very slightly but if not caught early can be a bit detrimental later. Grew a 5 ft plant in a 3.5 gallon res and she flourished. Good and fun photo period plant.

Week 6 day 2: Week 6 Video (Clock Dial LST Tech): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lz-Z-PbSFWk Tied the lower branches down to the rim of the pots to space them out for flowering and ensure flat, level canopy. Definitely going for at least 8 weeks, maybe 9-10, before the flip. Want to root out these 5.4 gallon air pots and see what kind of yield I can get. Removed first node of each branch entirely & a few scattered leaves now shading, topped all but 1 of the plants at the pot edge; A couple didn't quite make it that long because amazon decided to lose my soft ties and the wire ties cut through the stem. It'll be fine either way. Not happy with the runty two, but three out of five are gorgeous. Shame there's little point in keeping a clone mother with a 6 plant limit. Only Recharge once this week because I'm too snowed in to go get purified water; the PPM here is already 660-700, didn't want to add much to the water so I just put bio rhizotonic and pHed it. Updates will happen live @ https://twitch.tv/jaindoh and be saved under my vod highlights. Aiming to make super introductory tutorials (as I am no Guru) and get constructive feedback on my techniques. Trying to convert smokers to growers!

Die Pflanze wächst und gedeiht. Am ersten Tag der Woche, konnte ich die nächsten Triebe, ein weiteres Mal, toppen. Die letzten verbliebenen Triebe, wurden am 4 Tag der Woche, zum letzten Mal getoppt. Somit sind wir bei 12 Trieben und mit diesen soll es auch in die Blüte gehen. Damit die Triebe möglichst auf gleicher höhe bleiben, habe ich an Tag 5 damit begonnen, die Triebe in der nächsten Ebene, mit LST-Clips zu trainieren. Was wieder sehr gut funktioniert hat, die Pflanze wird breiter und bleibt auf einer Höhe. Die Luftfeuchtigkeit wurde wieder etwas gesenkt im laufe der Woche und die LED ab dem 4 Tag auf 30% erhöht. Der Abstand der LED wurde so angepasst, dass ich auf ca. 500 PPFD und einen DLI 34 gekommen bin. Der Abstand der LED wurde nicht an das Pflanzen Wachstum angepasst, so das am Ende der Woche ca. 550 PPFD und ein DLI von 36, bei der Pflanze angekommen ist. Sollte nichts mehr Gravierendes dazwischenkommen, lasse ich die Pflanze jetzt noch ein wenig wachsen und stelle dann im laufe der nächsten Woche auf 12/12 und leite die Blüte ein. Die Parameter in Woche 5: Controller Einstellung Tag: Advanced AI Luftfeuchtigkeit 55% - 65% Controller Einstellung Nacht: Advanced AI Luftfeuchtigkeit 50% - 60% Durchschnittliche Tagestemperatur: 26,9 Grad Durchschnittliche Nachttemperatur: 23,2 Grad Durchschnittliche Luftfeuchtigkeit Tag: 60,3% Durchschnittliche Luftfeuchtigkeit Nacht: 56,8% Durchschnittlicher VPD Tag: 1,2 Durchschnittlicher VPD Nacht: 1,1 LED Leistung: 30% = 120 Watt Beleuchtungsdauer: 18 Stunden Umluft: Stufe 1 oszillierend

Die Woche 5 der Blüte ist rum. Die bisher wärmste Woche mit Tagestemperaturen zwischen 25-31°C und Nachttemaparaturen zwischen 15-21°C haben die Ladys gut überstanden. Ich hab hier und da ein paar zu große Blätter entfernt oder Blätter die Buds verdeckt haben. Ansonsten habe ich hier und da ein paar Blattläuse mit der Hand oder Pinzette abgesammelt. Die blattuntereiten wurden auch großzügig auf Blattläuse und Eier kontrolliert. Auch hier mussten ein paarmal der Hand zerdrückt werden, aber soweit hält es sich in Grenzen. Auch von Mehltau war nichts mehr zu sehen. Alle Ladys sind gut stabil und entwickeln wunderschöne buds💚 die GorillaZkittlez sieht schon ziemlich final aus. Ich denke das es maximal noch zwei Wochen braucht bis sie getrocknet werden kann. Sie hat richtig schöne harzige dichte buds die ich outdoor nicht erwartet hätte. Und sie verteilt auch den intensivsten Geruch 💚 der Geruch geht stark in Richtung Zitrus mit würzigen untertönen. Die StrawberryBanana denke ich wird 1-2 Wochen länger dauern als die GorillaZkittlez. Sie sieht aber auch schon ordentlich aus. Der heasbud wird ein ordentlich fettes Ding. Der Geruch ist unglaublich lecker aber noch nicht ganz definierbar, geht aber in die fruchtige Richtung. Die GorillaAuto hängt etwas hinterher, wird aber wahrscheinlich soviel abwerfen wie meine StrawberryBanana und GorillaZkittlez zusammen. Die GorillaAuto hat einen sehr intensiven Zitrus Geruch mit Pinie/Kiefer im Hintergrund. Bis jetzt mein Favorit der drei Ladys rein vom Geruch. ____________________________ Düngen/Gießen: Die Ladys wurden in dieser heißen Woche jeden Tag gegossen, an den zwei Tagen mit 30°C und kaum Wolken wurden die Ladys Morgens und Abends gegossen. Im Durchschnitt bekam jede Ladys pro gießen ca 700ml-1L. Der ph-Wert lag dabei zwischen 6.5 und 6.7. An Tag 51/30F gab es als Zusätze auf 5L Wasser: 6ml BioBloom von BioBizz als kleinen Blütebooster, auch 1.5ml GreenSensation. Davon nur recht wenig, weil der Hauptdünger GreenHouseFeeding ist und der nicht ganz mit dem GreenSensation zurecht kommt. Davon abgesehen brauchen Automatiks auch etwas weniger Nährstoffe. Auch gab es 5ml PowerBuds und 3ml PureZym auf die 5L. An Tag 52/31F gab es nur Wasser, dafür morgens und abends. An Tag 53/32F gab es auf 5L Wasser 10ml StickyFingers von XpertNutrients und am Abend wieder Wasser. An Tag 54/33F gab es wieder Wasser. An Tag 55/34F gab es nochmal Wasser. An Tag 56/35F gab es auf 5L Wasser 5g BioEnhancer von GreenHouseFeeding, 6ml BioBloom von BioBizz, 1.5 ml GreenSensation, 5ml PowerBuds von Plagron. Am Abend gab es auch nochmal 300-500ml für jede Lady. Der ph-Wert lag dabei immer zwischen 6.5-6.7. Auf eine nächste Woche voller Freude und schönen Gerüchen💚
