Finally the stretched stopped. Cut about 10 tops bent about 20 with 90s. Still right in the lights. They are looking very happy even though they are so close to the light ( thanks to high c02 levels most likely.) Another week or 2 before I cut the temps and co2 levels down. Been trimming all leaves below light line. Stinky and brutally sticky I feel like Clark griswold with pine sap when ever I am bending the tops and such.. I think even with them being in the lights I will still get a few pounds of premium flower to smoke :)

Got hit by a severe heatwave this week! Temps reached 104 in the grow tent even with the lights off and fans at full blast. Threw some ice in front of a fan to help but it was not enough. Also doesn't help I went one day over when I would normally water them. First day of reasonable weather today. Plants seemed sad and droopy for a day, luckily after feeding they perked right back up. Defoliated slightly this week. Will definitely NEED air conditioning moving forward. Aside from that, the odor these two are creating is already mesmerizing. Best I can describe the smell so far is, a mixture of sweet pineyness with a light pungent funky undertone. Can't wait to switch to flower in a few days! Going to be flushing both plants this Sunday 05/31.

Week3! moving out of early veg and into big boi weeks. Probably within the next week or so we will be doing our first topping. 6+ growth terminals will be my metric and I will be taking the best 4 and running 4 mains per plant. I also decided to edge up the nutrients, they look like they responded to the boost last week so Ill see if I can run them off of the Vanilla chart from TPS 10+ week extended chart. I usually run the nutrients at 70% strength A/B so we will see if we can push more in the late veg area. Also To deal with the possibility of future Root Gnat issues before I Transplanted the seedlings into 7 gal containers, I made sure i ran boiling water through my premade soil mix before hand. that way if there was any larvae in the soil it killed them off beforehand. I did replace soil microbes that I ended up killing off as well by adding in recharge after the fact when the soil cooled down a bit, even if the micro-bio stuff in the soil was not compromised I made sure to have a backup plan. I will also be spraying the ladies with Crop Defender 3 soon for mildew and spider mite prevention. CD3 is compleately organic pesticide/fungicide which is OMRI listed.

So I started germinating my seeds with the cup of water method on the morning of the 25/04/20 on that same day I filled up small 9cm pots with John inns #1 for seedlings and gave it a soak through and left too sit in garden. I then this morning 27/04/20 removed all my seeds from there cups as they had all cracked and slightly shown tap roots. so I got them potted up and out in the garden however today’s weather has went slightly downhill compared too the recent weeks but I have great confidence they will be sweet. I’m going too repot in about 2 weeks time into 14 litre pots with some John inns #3 if I can get my hands on some multi purpose compost them I’m going too do a 50:50 mix as have read the John inns is good but can be abit hard upon watering and what not. So that could be an idea I know they don’t generally like repotting but so long as done at the right time “not too early or late” then they shouldn’t have too many issues with there transition. I have chosen too use fast buds as have a mate who grows them indoors and never failed too impress me with the flowers. Ideally these will stay outside 24/7 so they are instantly used too the changes in temp etc I feel bringing them in and outside can cause them too stress too much. So let’s see how we go. This evening I have moved them inside my shed so it’s stays the same rough temp as it’s due too rain heavy from 2am and don’t want too risk drowning the seeds out before they have even had a chance lol 28/04/20 update: so I have awoken this morning too the heavens falling so I’m really torn about bringing the autos back out right now I don’t want too fuck it up as right now is crucial so I have put them under a led light just too give them that little push start soon as they bust through the soil they going back outside 29/04/20 checked on them this morning just shy of 48 hours from potting and still nothing broken the soil.. starting too worry man hope I haven’t messed it up. 30/04/20 ayyyy what a good morning it is indeed 5 of 8 are coming up out the soil.. lunchtime update because I’m checking them like every hour🤣 6 out of 8 are up and out or just on the verge 01/05/20 not much more going on they definitely have grown some more as for my situation with outside weather due too get better but I have had the light on 24/7 now since they been inside so think mabye I should start cutting down how much light they are getting in a day so it’s not such a shock when they have too go all night outside. Also think we have lost one of the c4’s as the shell was stuck and I tried too help her out and she pulled out the soil😫 so I just kind of repotted it and hoping for the best but don’t think she going too pull through the rest looking find though luckily enough I got 2 c4’s on the go 02/05/20 yeah this morning I woke up too find that one dead and done for i had a feeling I had killed her slightly upset but not going too dwell on it.. on a positive note sun is out all day today and due too be lovely and warm here on out so they will probally stay outside now but will bring in at night as this morning cars were frozen so it’s still slightly too cold at night for sure... evening update we lost the west coast og also and I know why I lost them both my sprayer wasn’t working and like a idiot I watered them when they was undersoil still only lightly but the c4 bean and the wc og came to top as they wasn’t far enough in and they must have been done for from that moment can only be that as rest are sweet however I can’t believe it so I ph checked my water after giving them it too start and that because I was still waiting for my ph down too come and turns out my tap water is around 8 so I’m suprised any of them made it😮 but thankfully ph down has arrived and we are getting there 6 left but they are the chosen ones I guess you going too win some and loose some. Also tonight they about too deal with all night in the dark and then that’s how they are going too be from here on out nomore 24/7 light going too put them inside with led on still still a little later then sun down as I won’t be up at 5:30 when sun comes up... 05/05/20 so I have finally got a plan I’m sticking too and it’s working just a treat atm the weather is much nicer and sunnier now so the been bringing them out every morning leaving them Out all day then around 7pm roughly been taking them inside the tent into darkness leave them till around 10/11pm then I been turning the led on and leaving them under her for the night then straight back outside soon as it hits about 7:30am i started with just A hour of darkness one night then 2 then next then 4 then before they stay out all night for first night they will get about 5 hours darkness inside as outside it’s gunna be around 6 hours and I don’t want them too be shocked by it as started them off with pretty much 24/7 lights however since giving them darkness they have started growing a lot better and smoother think 24 hours of constant light is just abit too much they need time too rest and what not, watering with small amount of vitalink soil grow literally 0.5 ml a litre I also have some root fast by another company which I Have added a half measure in too help give her a start no signs of stress they seem too have loved the little feed so will be continuing the same measurements for about a week unless they start all a sudden booming up then I’ll up the feed just all trial and error and just having a bit of fun with it. 6 days out the soil now nearly onto week 2.... excited too say the least

Another week on the Gorilla, she is forming bud, but real irregular and she seems to not fill out like she is supposed to. The plant is way smaller than her roommates too, in this case thankfully cause this will compensate a little for the loss of total weight she will cause. I had made a video but decided not to put it up, with too much strong language and questions of the integrity of the third-party seed bank in question. Remember that Expert seeds probably cant help this much, except not dealing with third parties messing up their good name. Well enough words for an so far underperforming plant. We did as much magic as we could, I think Im lucky if she yields 30 grams, lowering my total and average gram per watt score so thanks...

So this was a simple going grow!!! It’s strange how the hot so big under the light! I had one blue cheese under the same light and tent and it was way smaller!! Anyway 1 of these has come out perfect very happy the other two I’m not to sure the hairs were still pointing up but I really don’t have the time to have them going another week there already over the time they was supposed to be done but yeah I’d say out of 10 I’d rate this blue cheese growing experience a 6 out of 10 hopefully this improves when it’s dry!!!

Hello fellow growers, 4th week for the Double Grape and we are still looking good. She recovered perfectly after the topping, in fact, she didn't seem to suffer from it at all. I did some light training on the lower branches, I am waiting for the top branches to grow a bit more before I start to manipulate them. She's showing some pistils, now the real fun begins. 😎 I am still following the HESI feeding schedule and we are doing just fine. This week I added HESI Boost which role is to activate flowering. That's it for now, don't hesitate to check my Instagram page @harukisan_grower_cz . Thanks for stopping by and see you next week! 👍

Gather 'round, because it's time for the grand finale of my Tropicana Cookies Auto journey. Week 10 has arrived, and boy, oh boy, this gal has been an absolute delight from start to finish. Let's dive into the final chapter of this epic adventure! I harvested my lovely lady at day 69 from seed, and let me tell you, it was a celebration of beauty and abundance. Picture this: a majestic all-girl harvest, suspended upside down for a glorious two-week drying extravaganza. At a temperature of 60 degrees Fahrenheit (15 degrees Celsius) and a relative humidity of 60%, the drying process unfolded like a symphony of perfection. Now, let's talk trichomes, shall we? Oh, those glorious little resin factories! This Tropicana Cookies Auto has blown my mind with the sheer amount of trichomes it boasts. It's like a frosty wonderland, sparkling like a million tiny diamonds. I've never seen trichomes in such numbers, shapes, and colors before. It's a trichome party, and everyone's invited! But let's not forget the benefits of the drying process. By allowing our precious buds to dry slowly and evenly, we're enhancing their flavors, aromas, and overall quality. It's like fine wine, my friends, getting better with age. Patience is the name of the game, and trust me, the reward is worth every second of anticipation. Now, let me take a moment to give a big shout-out to @Fast_Buds. They've truly outdone themselves with this Tropicana Cookies Auto. It's like they sprinkled magical trichome dust all over these seeds, ensuring a frosty experience like no other. They've got the genetics game on lock! So, my fellow cannabis enthusiasts, as we bid farewell to this remarkable journey, let's cherish the memories, the lessons learned, and the joy shared. From seed to harvest, this Tropicana Cookies Auto has captured our hearts and ignited our passion for the green wonders of the world. May your drying process be smooth, your trichomes plentiful, and your buds burst with flavor. Thank you, Tropicana Cookies Auto, for gracing my garden with your extraordinary presence. You've left an indelible mark in my cannabis-growing adventures. Keep cultivating with love, spreading the joy of this amazing and holy plant we all love so much, and remember, my friends, trichomes are like the glitter of the cannabis world—bright, beautiful, and absolutely fabulous! As always thank you all for stopping by and for supporting me on this journey, i am super passion about growing and fell blessed to have you all with me on this new journey <3 <3 <3 Genetics - Fast Buds Tropicana Cookies Auto Ligth - LUMATEK ZEUS 465 COMPACT PRO

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. As the Indica-dominant side kicks in, the powerful cerebral effect gradually moves downwards and hits your whole body with a deep relaxation that leaves you with a joyful stoney sensation that alleviates chronic pain while leaving you in an overall happy and positive state of mind. It’s the perfect daytime and nighttime strain as it can boost your mood and enhance a night out with friends but can also quiet your mind as you get ready for a good night of sleep. No matter the scenario, expect a powerful high that lasts for hours on end.Plant appearance Tropicana Cookies Auto reaches up to 110cm and develops a tall main cola with shorter side branches, typical of hybrid strains. 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

Wow very good growth on her this week, doing VERY well in her tiny 1L airpot! She has a really thick stem already. I am worried she's not an autoflower though... Let's leave her for a few more weeks and see if she enters flowering.

You should smell it, that's the only thing I can't let you smell, otherwise I can show you the Do SI Dos F1 Hybrid from Zamnesia and you can see it with your own eyes. ** We remind you that we grew two plants per strain, one grown without the use of techniques (which you can find already harvested in the previous weeks) and this one worked with the main lining today. Technique Used // In this case we see the plant worked with the MAINLINING technique: we waited for the third internode and did TOPPING (you can also do it at the second to lengthen the vegetative phase in autoflowering plants, it's better); from this topping a MAINFOLDING was carried out by cleaning everything that was underneath in the underlying internodes and leaving only the two mini branches growing as a result of the first topping, the Mainfold precisely. We stole the two branches with the arches up to the third internode of each respective branch and we did TOPPING once again, from here the plant was left to grow directing it with LST as best we could. Better with the techniques or normal? It is a plant with a super low distance between internodes, this technique is not recommended, the plant is not very big but it has produced well anyway, the style is a bit bonsai but a bosai with nice flowers and a fair amount not really bonsai about 40-50 gr dry. Flower quality // The buds have resined really well you can see it in the macros at different distances there is a lot of resin well distributed. The flowers are also nice and hard and they look even a bit better than the plant left to grow straight. We washed the buds it is an essential thing this try to follow the guide of Zamnesia and you will see what flavor your buds! Check the article in your language // https://www.zamnesia.io/it/guida-coltivare-cannabis/333-lavaggio-delle-ceme Trichomes // Here we have an absolute majority of milky cloudy trichomes, still something transparent and something amber, it's not super ripe but that's fine for me. Feertilizers// I am very happy with how I managed to unload the plant that at a certain point before going flush was fed a few days only with additives and then went flush and we are discolored sufficiency. All the fertilizers and additives of Plagron in the green version / 100% organic have fully satisfied me. Choose your soil based on your style and calculate the sheet on the site www.plagron.com You can instead find the fertilizers in convenient all-inclusive packs on the Zamnesia site. Try a seed of this strain that drives us crazy.. ---- https://www.zamnesia.io/en/10664-zamnesia-seeds-do-si-dos-f1-automatic.html Zamnesia Description // By crossing Face Off OG and OG Kush Breath, Do-Si-Dos F1 Automatic was born. This autoflowering strain is extremely tasty and proves to be a very uniform and reliable plant in the grow room, suitable for beginners and experts alike. Designed to produce huge yields despite its small size, this is what Do-Si-Dos F1 Automatic has to offer. As mentioned, Do-Si-Dos F1 Automatic is an autoflowering strain that takes just 10 weeks to go from seed to harvest, requiring little care and attention. In addition to growing perfectly in the most diverse environments, Do-Si-Dos F1 Automatic has a high resistance to pests, diseases and other ailments. An excellent option for those who are still inexperienced with growing cannabis. Reaching heights of around 55–75cm, Do-Si-Dos F1 Automatic is perfect for growing in a small corner of a greenhouse, grow tent or as a guerrilla grow outdoors. The options are truly limitless with this strain. Once this plant is ready to harvest, growers will be looking at a harvest of around 550g/m² indoors and 100–150g/plant outdoors. More than satisfactory yields for a strain that requires little maintenance, yet still provides great satisfaction. Music and Frequencies // For about 4/6 hours a day my plants listen to 432Hz frequencies made especially for their well-being and sometimes a bit of black music to give them those vibrations that only music can give. www.radionula.com All the best that mother nature has to offer is at ---- www.zamnesia.com

Vamos familia que ya actualizamos la cosecha de estas Frosted Guava de Zamnesia. Vaya flores que se han marcado repletas de tricomas, parecen escarcha y las flores se marcan aromas muy tropicales, la verdad que únicos. Es una variedad bastante fácil de cultivar pero al tener un periodo de floración algo más largo, hay que estar pendiente de alimentarlas bien, gracias Agrobeta en mi sala es posible. Temperaturas máximas en 24 y mínimas en 20 y una humedad estable en torno al 36%. Las mantuve 10 semanas pero facilmente si se quedan 11 tampoco estaría mal, yo las vi bien maduras y ya tenía tricomas ambar así que les di matarile. Os comento que tengo un descuento y para que compréis en la web de Zamnesia de un 20%, el código es ZAMMIGD2023 The discount 20% and the code is ZAMMIGD2023 https://www.zamnesia.com/ Agrobeta: https://www.agrobeta.com/agrobetatiendaonline/36-abonos-canamo Mars hydro: Code discount: EL420 https://www.mars-hydro.com/ Espero que disfruteis este diario, buenos humos 💨💨💨

Plants took a hard hit with bad ph levels in week 4 for a few days but are growing strong again and I will probably veg till the end of week 6 on these girls and switch to flowering in week 7. Overall it’s going good, water temps are a steady 18 Celsius with the thermoelectric water cooler I built and the small ac unit In the tent is holding the air temps between 23-25 Celsius. I added 4 gal of fresh water and nutrients at full strength to the reservoir on Day 38. Also the first lower screen was installed and I tied down/tucked a few of the larger branches to the screen.

Auch für die Pfadfinder eröffnet sich die nächste Woche. Beide Ladys machen einen Hervorragenden Fortschritt sowohl die Abstände der "Nioden?" als auch das Wachstum und die Farbe der Ladys gefällt mir sehr gut. Bei einer Lady habe ich etwas nach geholfen die zukünftigen Triebe durch die Fächerblätter zu fummeln damit diese schon frühzeitig licht bekommen und ggf. auch auf einer höhe weiter wachsen so wie sie es bisher tun. Bei der anderen Lady experimentieren ich etwas herum wie es sich auf die Ernte auslegt wenn ich einige Triebe nach unten "Binde" um einen Größeren Lichteinfluss zu generieren was aber bei der Lady nicht so einfach ist da sie ein verdammt wildes Wachstum hat was für mich als Newbie nicht klar erkennbar ist dank ihrer Mutation. Weitere Infos / Bilder folgen im laufe der Woche da sich seit Gestern ( Sonntag ) auf Heute nicht viel getan hat.🌱 Update Montag Abend: Erste Anzeichen der blütephase entdeckt Let's do it!🍃💚

This girl was a treat to grow. A little scary when I first broke her branch but she recovered well. She is pungent and quick to stink up a room. Covered in trichomes. I have sifted her trim for kief and it was very flavorful through my vaporizer. She is a couple rh% points away from curing. Can't wait until I get to really smoke/vape and enjoy her. She was so delightful that I decided to do a really slow dry and cure. All is well :)

This plant was a dream to grow, wish I'd taken cuts. Halfway through dry at 7 days. Drying at 55 - 60 % RH and 17 - 19 degrees C. I anticipate she'll be done between 10 - 14 days total dry time and I'll then trim and update weights on this Harvest. 133.75g total after trim. She's a nice smoke, very happy.

This week went pretty well, other than she stretched like crazy and I am now getting worried about running out of vertical space. I also had a few of my bottom leaves get a few brown and yellow spots on them. I did post some pics and asked a question, thank you for the responses, much appreciated! I am thinking about adding my Spyder Farmer LED 100 Watt light into the tent for the nebula auto because it is about 23 inches shorter than the sour diesel. I believe it would only raise my temp about 2 degrees, and possibly lower the humidity by one or two percent. I must say my dehumidifier has been a freaking stud, running 24X7 and not complaining. I should look into adding another unit, it has been in the mid 90's and muggy for about a week. So far I have to say I am super impressed and excited with this setup, the genetics, and with growing this wonderful plant in general. Already planning ahead to my next grow, and what I can do better. I have been enjoying myself and I really appreciate everyone who has taken the time to answer my questions! I am having a blast and am excited to see what this lady will give up in a few weeks!
