Summer is happening at full speed so a short entry here. Getting close anyways so wont be too much to cover. 7/15/2024 Day 55 Temp: 70.3 F RH: 64.3% VPD: 0.89 kPa Plant #1 Height: 37” inches Plant #2 Height: 31” inches Light distance 10” & 16” I’m going to water 2.5 gallons an hour before the lights come on tonight I’ve already prepared my water jug with a half a teaspoon of bio-phos, about five ML actually put a little more of the elixir in today and then the Q so I put all those things in the water and will give it to him before the lights come back on. 7/17/2024 Day 57 Temp: 81.8 F RH: 63.7% VPD: 1.31 kPa Plant #1 Height: 37” inches Plant #2 Height: 31” inches Did some work in the tent to try and alleviate some of the heat stress. Bent over the main cola to even out the canopy. Fed the regular feeding and some Oly Mtn Fish Compost.

Harvested. This is the way I'm doing most harvests now.. As you can't rate a pheno on just its apparence I feel. So from now on, smoke review will be all done and rated on the same to make it fair. As after an hour of harvest you can't change the ratings, and how can you tell how strong a strain is until you try it. 112days total under the light. I Added up the cost of this light running. Worked out at 177euro, now the 1st 50days was only ran under a 100w. I've already gotten 150g from 2 plants, and expecting another 250ish so 177euro +/- 5euro for 400ish grams of some of the best bud I've got so far, is more than a deal for me. As in my country it's 150euro for 14grams of good weed, so 400g, well, not so hard to do the math. Even if I got just 150 I'd just be as happy with that. I'm 4 days in. Keeping RH between 58-61%, have the dehumidifier set in the dry room. Temperature ranges from 20-22c. Mostly stays at 21c. Was able to take a HST'ed cola, removing it was no stress as the stress was already done when it HST'ed itself. It's 18g after 4 days of drying. The bud is so so dense, definitely hitting A grade appreance, let's see if we get A grade taste/stone results. This was 1 of the mid range colas, there is much bigger but I won't be removing them, but if this is anything to go by, I should get 100ish grams when its dry of some of the biggest buds I've seen in a while. The smell has got more pungent, but it 100% needs a cure. No hay/grassey smell as of yet, (this comes from been dried wrong, either 2 fast with 2 humid conditions, too hot, or your environment is jumping all over the place. I've been able to get rid of most of it as it goes after a week or 2 from the cure but there's 2 plants that still have a some what hay smell. But it's going. Was given her last heavy watering last week and then was given 1L of Terra Powers finisher and I let the soil get dry under the light, and when I felt it was dry but not hitting the stress factor in the substrate I put into dark rest, (soil will stop drying out, as photosynthesis has stopped), dark rested 48hrs, uprooted, and hung whole. Thanks to my sponsors from marshydro led lights and Terra Power Nutrients, and to the 2 reps I dealt with, great ladies. COUPON FOR MARSHYDRO Use code GGS at any marshydro site for a small discount.

In this week I pulled out a few males, see video with male parts. All plants are seeing an explosion of growth and have all recieved first topping with some plants already being topped for the second time at the point in the grow. All plants receive teas at every feeding never feeding the plants only feeding the soil

Seedlings are all doing really well, even under this summer heat, but not much I can do about that but seedlings are OK with 30 degrees of heat 👍🏾

Just got done with trimming the 4x4 @greenhouseseedco Super Silver Haze / @blimburnseeds Silver Surfer Haze tent. The final yield is exactly 1000g plus some (kind of a lot)that I smoke in the last 2 weeks 😃 Also got 6, gallon size ziploc bags filled with good quality trim for concentrate. To be honest I was expecting a little more but keeping in mind that this grow I did not supplemented with bottled CO2 I think I’m good with the results. Definitely I enjoyed a lot this grow and I’ve learned even more.

I fed the plants 75% nutrients for it's very last feeding although 6 or more leaves are showing signs of nitrogen deficiency but the buds are still growing, all signs show that I think they need 2 more weeks. Most pistols are amber, and a few new pistols still grow from the tops or sides of each bud. New sugar leaf growth on the tops look more rounded. The trichomes on the oldest sugar leaves have turned amber, less so on middle and top. Trichomes on the buds range from appearing clear, cloudy and milky, but not amber. I want the trichomes on the buds to be anywhere between 10-30% amber.

Transplanted early this week. This girl showed her pistols under 24hr light so I'm guessing the genetics for her are strong. I plan to let her go and take a few clones. She also got switched to 18/6 light. She is absolutely Killin it

2/5 is insanely big for day 35. It has many shoots and im debating whether or not i should lollipop this plant, what do you guys reckon? Flowering mode has really begun this week, extra shoot production stopped and more and more pistils are forming. The stretching has also stopped. I really think topping is the way to go for these genetics, with this short veg time. Or my LST is just bad and i should do it differently. Still watering 3L of water every 2/3 days. Let's see those buds form😍. Way to go RQS for this record holding autoflowering seed to harvest time.

I'd say last two weeks for most of my girls :) I started lowering the EC and starting to flush during this week. I've deciced to cut one of the girls early because I have nothing to smoke. It was crowded anyway so at least I made some more roome for the giant one which probably takes like 3 maybe 4 more weeks. Some trichomes looked cloudy so I think it wont be too bad even a bit early harvested. I have done some sampling and it looks very dense, FINALLY! most of my previous grows were not very dense but this looks just perfect. Cant wait for the later harvest and also next grow :) SOrry I didnt really take good pictures, was a bit lazy this week :) aloha see you next time

The plants are now putting all their energy into bud production, and it’s really starting to show!🌱 Both are developing bigger and bigger buds, and the smell is becoming more intense every day. #2 has an insanely large main bud, completely covered in trichomes. The aroma is very hazy, deep, and complex. it’s going to be interesting to see how it develops in the coming weeks. #1, on the other hand, continues to impress with its tropical, sweet, and pineapple-like scent, and its buds are also swelling up beautifully! Everything is going exactly as it should—excited to see how much more they’ll bulk up in the next weeks!💚

I started Flushing two plants as there nearing the end of there days. I'll start Flushing the others this week apart from the kalimist indica pheno as it started flowering 3 or so weeks after the others even though they were all forced together. (alkward bugger) Some of the plants are showing red /purple colours a little bit 👍
