Placed 2 of 3 Seedlings into the hydro set-up The third seed will be used for an outdoor soil grow. Will change the water in 1 week to vega and cannazym with rhizotonic. Planning to switch to aqua bloom on day 15. Currently the lights are set back to 75% to save electricity. Once flowering starts I’ll put in on 100%

Back again for another update from down under. Well Its been a week of unusual weather here-actually most of Australia is having bizarre weather ATM with flooding rains mixed in with high 30's heat and damaging winds. This is in part why I now grow more smaller and better trained plants rather than a couple of larger tree's. One bad storm can literally snap a tree in half so unless your ladies are protected from the wind you WILL have issues outside. Train them, keep them low to the ground and stake them just to be safe ok. Mine are just greening up and bushing out nicely this week, not much more to report other than wondering how much longer before they show me those lil white hairs-cmon ladies its nearly feb and your not flowering yet? Any day now im sure. Hash plant is growing a 1-2cms a day easily, ZkittleZ is bulking up now while Caramelo just seems to be growing more and more shoots-Not used to sativias grown like this-do I cut some off to improve quality or leave em alone to improve quantity? I cant even count how many heads there are now. But the big news is my lemon haze variegated X sour Diesel hybrid seems to be staying female so far- no leaf color at all but the first 3rd gen hybrid that doesnt look like either parents but more of a middle ground of the two, its stayed female so far!! Normally only the ones that looked really sour D like stayed female but this one has a lighter leaf color than normal Sour Ds, but also more the leaf shape of the lemon haze side. Please stay female lil miss. See ya all next week.

I think it’s about flushing time for Gorilla Zkittlez. She stinks up the whole room. Carbon filter ain’t cutting it. Lol Gorilla Cookies on the other hand is getting huge. I think she should pull some nice weight. She’s stacking up trichromes and starting to smell pretty good. A weird smell but it’s good. Idk how to explain it. 😎 That’s all till next week. 🤙🏽💪🏽

This week went by fast! They're growing really fast and always hungry! They're getting ready for the flower stage and entering Bloom. They're getting 2L of H20 per day that's pH at 6.8. I water 2x a day! I turn them on at 6am and give them 1L of H20 at 9am that way they're awake and 1L of H2O at 9pm that way they're split. I feed my nutrients at the 9am watering. I pH my nutrient mix somewhere between 5.8 and 6.2. I also have amended the soil with Soil Recharge and that's once a week as well as the Fish Shit and The Stash Blend. Then, I always flush with only pH H20 the day after any nutrient mix. Overall, the plants are healthy and I'm waiting to see how they turn out!

Updated the official lab result for this specific plant... thank you spliffseeds, its great to know what youre smoking... Its amazing how a 55 cm plant can yield 120+ grams of dank dry buds, important here was the training and filling the cannopy, scrog net would help me in terms of supporting her coz as you see on pics i harvested her after 3 days of no liquid and she just fell down coz buds were to heavy... and throughout the process i had problems with holding branches in one piece lol so i had to do all the funny bondages with green wire, sadly i dont have pics coz i couldn make a clear photo of how and what did i connect together.

Cruise control. Her drinking is slowing and she is not asking for anything. Just plain Watering on Tuesday and Friday... Literally that's it. 😁 Included is a little video right before lights on. Oh and I harvested the Pineapple glue Auto ... 😎 Thank you all for looking. Happy growing. Note* In the Nutrients section, it has the craft Blend listed. It's just to satisfy the Diaries 😟 face during update. No nutrients were added this week.

So now they have both been chopped down and are hanging to dry. I was slightly unhappy with the density of Cali Snow and wonder if I should of let her go another couple of weeks. Or maybe she didn’t have enough room. Grapefruit however has some of the biggest buds I’ve grown. So it’s all good. Just got to get them dry and manicured now.

Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. This is my second cultivation ever and it will be fun to try a bigger space than my closet grows First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom. I put some pictures on the construction here in week one. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of ​​3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable theme in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 8 pcs 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. But there are no cultivation rooms to be displayed here, so I continue with what is most important. Today I have put my seeds in my moisture dome and hope the seeds have germinated within a few days. I am very excited to see how the new growroom will work and how this CBD Fast Eddy plant from Royal queen seeds will turn out. CBD Fast Eddy Automatic is combining Cheese x Juanita la Lagrimosa x Ruderalis, Fast Eddy is a rapid growing, flavourful, and CBD-rich auto strain that goes from seed to harvest in 8-9 weeks, produce generous yields, and induce a clear, mellow, and most importantly, functional high. THC: 9% CBD: High Yield Indoor : 400 - 450 gr/m2 Yield Outdoor: 80 - 130 gr/plant Height Indoor: 60 - 100 cm Height Outdoor: 80 - 120 cm Flowering: 6 - 7 weeks Harvest month: 8-9 weeks after sprouting Genetic Background: Cheese x Juanita la Lagrimosa x Ruderalis Type: Sa 50% In 40% Ru 10% Effect: Clear, Painrelief Climate: Mild .............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. Update 2017-08-15. Both seeds have germinated and planted in small pots inside the humidity dome. I'm so glad it worked so well and now it's just hoping they'll start growing and become 2 big healthy girls :) ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Update 2017-08-16. I have mixed my own soil today. Its 40% sieved peat harrow H2-H4 0-30 mm, 45% sieved peat harrow H4-H6 0-30 mm. 5% sand and 10% of compost soil. And i use 15% of perlite and mix it all together. ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Update 2017-08-20. These girls are much slower to germinate and to start growing than the other 6 girls I started at the same time. One of the germinated seeds split in half, so I had to take a new seed and germinate it. It took 2 days. It was just a smal taproots after germination with this strain as opposed to my Fastbuds cbd. But I hope everything goes well from now and that they live up to their name, Fast Eddy. ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ Update 2017-08-21. New pics. ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ 2017-08-22. Nr1 dident make it and died. Started germinate a new seed to get another Nr1. .............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. 2017-08-27. Nr 1 is in a small pot in humidity dome and i hope shes going to break the surface soon. Nr 2 is slow but doing fine. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-28. Nr2 is transplanted in 15 liter autopot. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-29. New movie of the girls Nr2. Its no water for 3 days now so the roots develop more and match the plant above the soil. The temp controlled fan is awesome, its easy to set what temp you like to have in the room. Right now its 28 celcius. And humidity is 56%. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-29. Hello to you who read my diary, I just want to say that I am pleased that you have chosen to check in with me and in my diary. I just want to say that I do this for myself and for a steady flow of my medicine. Everything you read and see in my diary is 100% honest and I will never distort or beautify anything here. I document my crops so that I can learn from my mistakes and also to look back at those different crops. I try to update with pictures every day and with text if something special has happened in the garden. This is my strainhunt for the best medicine and the beginning of my journey with cannabis and the cultivation of it. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-30. Cleaned the room this morning, just vacuuming and cleaning with chlorine solution. Im testing the fan to control temp and humidity, it works great. Added a movie. Everything is looking great right now. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2017-08-31. 3 New pics. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2017-09-01.

Everything looks good and I keep trying to tuck the leaves so they get the maximum amount of light where needed. Added pics and video. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-07. Day 17 from sprouting. I have never tested PH in my grows, when growing organic in soil iv learned that it adapt PH by it self. But im curious by nature so i had to test. Kl 10.00 Tested PH in the soil, it was 6.9 and tested my tap water and it was 6.8. Added video of the girl. Kl 22.30.

Hey Farmers. Another successful harvest! Let's start off with the weigh in. This time around we got 207 grams of bud, none of which I would qualify as top shelf. We also got 47 grams worth of larf, which is a lot, and lastly we have 22 grams of frosty trim. I will be more specific about the taste and feel of the plant in the smoke comment below. I dried her in cardboard boxes, the total dry time ended up taking 10 days. I got a very nice rootball, especially when compared to my early days. I'm using Calcium hypochlorite to combat pythium growth in my growbucket, as well as providing free chlorine for the plant to uptake. It's a very cheap and effective way to run a "Sterile" DWC run, although you have to be very careful when handling and dosing, if you want to know how I calculate my dose, check below. It's a great and cheap alternative to UC Roots. for Calcium Hypochlorite I use HTH Pool shock, its 67% Chlorine, don't just buy HTH pool shock, as its contents vary by country, try and buy pure Calcium Hypochlorite with 70% chlorine from an online Lab supply store, its dirt cheap and 1 KG will last you a lifetime for less than 40 bucks, i aim for 2ppm of free Chlorine in my reservoir, this will slow down growth of bacteria, and is still relatively low in dose so our root hairs don't take too much damage. ALWAYS Check the chlorine of your Calcium Hypochlorite, Mines 67% the following is the calculations I use, feel free to adjust the formulas to your needs: 2 ppm chlorine from 67% strength Calcium Hypochlorite and I want to fill an empty 2 litre bottle with 0.5% Chlorine which will serve as my stock solution (2000x0,5) / 67 = 14,9 14,9 grams of 67% strength Calcium Hypochlorite to get a 2L Chlorine bottle with 0.5% strength !! Be careful with this Stock bottle. 0.5% Doesn't sound like a lot, but it is HIGHLY corrosive and will give you chemical burns !! I then want to turn that stock bottle with 5000mg Chlorine per litre into 2mg/litre which is 2 ppm.. (There are 1,000,000 milligrams (mg) in 1 litre (L)) (0,0002x1000) / 0,5 = 0.4 which is 0.4, so 0.4 ml of the stock solution per litre of water then gets me 2mg/l total chlorine in my plant buckets note that I don't use this in late flower once I start feeding Green sensation. mainly because Green sensation is 80% bio and I'm not sure how well the two would work together and at this point, roots no longer grow anyway and pythium is unlikely if you're a little smart in the final weeks
