This week the buds have fatten up some more and the production of thc was clearly visible in the trichomes. On the last day of this week I did a check and I saw a lot of them where turning cloudy, half cloudy with a few amber ones. I guess another 2 weeks at max and I'll be harvesting. The fungus gnats where a real pest during this run. So I've placed a drosera capensis(carnivorious plant) in the growroom and she hasn't eaten this much since I got here a year ago. Should have done this weeks ago... This weeks menu for the Pineapples: Day 1 → Each 1250 ml (0.33 gallon) tapwater with Plagron nutrients (see above for which and how much) Day 2 → Dry Day 3 → Each 1250 ml (0.33 gallon) ph adjusted tapwater (ec 0.48– ph 6.6) Day 4 → Dry Day 5 → Each 1250 ml (0.33 gallon) tapwater with Plagron nutrients. 16 ml Terra Bloom, 4 ml Sugar Royal, 4ml Power Buds and 4 ml Green Sensation was added to 5 liter (1.32 gallon) of tapwater (ec 1.77 – ph 6.6) Day 6 → Dry Day 7 → Each 1250 ml (0.33 gallon) ph adjusted tapwater (ec 0.46– ph 6.5) The cobs are now at 45 cm (17.7 inch) with 320 watt → DLI 43/PPFD 995 This will be the maximum power for this run. Temperatures fluctuated between 20.3 – 29.8 °C (68.5 – 85.6 °F) and humidity levels between 43 – 69% Till next week!

This week is looking good and the babies are coming along great, I'm loving the way pheno 1 is so symmetric, large and in charge! I started out this grow with a bit of a hick up because of the pandemic but I tell you one thing, foliar feeding saved my plants! I foliar feed my seedlings at around 200ppm I use some micro nutes, along with amino mix to foliar feed. The foliar feeding definitely makes the plants more robust, they end up feeling hard and strong! I Usually foliar feed until I flip to flower then no more!

Really loved this plant and how it grew other then the fox tails, Unfortunately I had to move this weekend and just couldn’t continue growing her and moving at the same time. She still had a good 1-2 weeks left but what is there looks really good will update when she finishes drying.

Didn’t manage to get a pic of all my autos this week cos we were in a rush. Will take pics of every strain on the weekend. Crazy smells coming of these plants now and they are getting very frosty. Will start feeding bottled nutes to make the most out of them.

Day 68 flower. I stopped using the Ripen on day 65. Since then I've been using Florakleen at 2tsp per gallon and RO water only for flush. Pineapple express is flushing at a faster rate still. I had to brace several colas because of the size so I'm really watching closely for any molding issues. I'm planning to hang her up at day 71ish. Rainbow cake is turning a little purple. It looks like its almost finished and I'm planning to pull around day 71 as well. London mint cake is finishing up nicely. I think she's going to need a little more time flushing so she might get pulled a little later than the other 2. Hope you like my pics and videos!

It was a good week one of my plants went into flowering at the last days of week 5 and she is showing pistils It wasent expected i thoght it vegetaites at least another week or so but we have diffrent phenoes and we should have diffrent expectations the other 2 are still in vegitaition They had a minor nitrogen toxicity i hadent grow automatic plants till now and i was giving them a little too much fertiliser bud i found out soon and flushed them so they are ok now Nothing too do more except doing LST evary day by pushing big branches away to expose the little ones to light and keeping the main stems and the little stems in same hight Thank you for your time and thanks to the growdiaries.com for letting us growers have this great experience together 💚 Keep growing🤘🏽👽

Topped and continued LST. Only topped the main shoot. In a week or two I will top all side branches that ware reaching the top, and the main shoot one more time. I will then wait for growth another 3 weeks to a month, with LST and defoliation. Then flip. The transplant stressed plant (plant 2) was showing more signs of bad health than the other. Plant 1 only had slight nutrient burn, so this week when I watered I upped the amount of water and lowered the overall nutrients. This should had diluted it enough and lowered ppm. I currently do not have a tds meter as the last one I had was cheap. This run all I have is a apera instruments PH meter, I decided to invest in high quality instruments, so will get a new tds meter down the line. Also I waited one week to water, as I wanted to see how long it took for my plants to get thirsty. I have 2 other plants in this tent, the Jelly donutz seem to have last the longest without wilting. Going that full week. From now on I will be watering every 4-5 days until my girls need more. Compared to the other 2 plants in my tent. This jelly dontz are growing at a slower rate.

Flower Week 6 Day 42 to 48 - 3/26 to 4/1 Stepped up my attention with these this week and hope I didnt let them go too far for a decent harvest. I defoliated for the last time this week and spotted more purple leaves. The buds are super dense so I have higher hopes than I did last week Feed this week was 1.25 gallons 2 times. 700ppm total before add-ins. I used 400ppm Bloom concentrate mix (recipe week 5). Then I added 1ml/gal of CaliMagic (General Hydroponics 1-0-0) PH balance this week was 6.6 I plan to feed 1.25gal 2 times with 6.6ph and half nutes. This will also be the same for all remaining feeds before harvest. From this point Im simply watching for signs to harvest in the pistils, calyx, and trichomes

Frozen Black Cherry starts the new week strong! 🌱✨ The plant has developed beautifully – the buds are getting really thick and dense now, and the resin production has officially kicked in! 💥 Trichomes are popping up everywhere, glistening under the light like frost on cherries ❄️🍒 The scent is something else entirely – this terpene profile on soil is completely different from the RDWC run, and I’m absolutely hyped to see how that translates into flavor. Stay tuned – this one’s gonna be special! Don’t forget to follow, like & vibe with the journey! 🔥👀 --- Eine neue Woche beginnt für die Frozen Black Cherry! 🌱✨ Die Pflanze hat sich richtig prächtig entwickelt – die Buds sind jetzt schön dick und kompakt geworden, und auch die Harzproduktion ist richtig gestartet! 💥 Überall sprießen Trichome, wie Frost auf dunklen Kirschen ❄️🍒 Und der Duft? Ganz anders als im RDWC – das Terpenprofil hat sich in der Erde komplett anders entfaltet. Ich bin mega gespannt, wie das Ganze nachher schmeckt. Bleibt dran, diese Sorte wird richtig besonders! Nicht vergessen zu folgen, liken & miterleben! 🔥👀

✅ Wedding Cake Auto – Final Harvest Report: Finished harvesting the remainder of my Wedding Cake auto. Main cola was taken earlier at peak cloudy with some early ambers (~10–15%) for a more balanced effect. The rest of the plant was allowed to mature further and came down with roughly 20–25% amber trichomes. Bud density was excellent across the mid and lower branches — structure held up well without support. She was grown fully organic — no synthetic inputs — in living soil amended with bone meal during flower. Dried at ~70°F / 50% RH for a slow 7-day dry. Cure will begin this week in Grove Bags (1 oz size). Aroma leans toward earthy-sweet with some gassy backend as she dries. 👑 Special Queen #1 Auto – Ongoing Flower: This plant has been a beast. She’s in the latter half of flower now with impressive lateral branching and heavy stacking across all colas. Trichomes are mostly cloudy with a few early ambers showing on the top-most bud sites, so I’ll be continuing her for another week or two to hit my preferred heavy amber target for a deeper effect. She’s bounced back from early lockout and transplant stress after being moved into ~8 gal of fresh FoxFarm soil with top-dressed organics. Water-only since week 5, and she’s thriving. 🌿 Notes: This run has really dialed in my process — organic medium, minimal inputs, and clean environment. Next steps will be sanitation, tent reset, and prepping for my upcoming tester autos.

Welcome to week 11 I feel like I may be out of the woods as far as worry is about pollination so far she shows no signs of being pollinated. I have continued with my LST scrogging in order to keep the canopy even and not let it get too high I don't want to keep the distance from the light. Other than that she shows no deficiencies and is growing very nicely if a little slow LOL

Apologies for not updating last week, I have just been really busy! These last couple of weeks have been great - her growth is coming along very well. There are no signs of any deficiencies as of yet, what is your opinion! In regards to defoliating and lollipopping - what growth would you suggest I get rid off?
