El dia sabado 17/8 se aplico 15gr de Bio4 (4-4-4), 15gr de Phenex(6-8-!5) y humus de lombriz por cada maceta y se regó con 2 litros de agua con ph 6.3 por maceta. Las plantas pegaron un estiron asi que se coloco el segundo led de 180W. 22/8 se realizo una defoliacion no muy agresiva retirando solamente las hoja mas grandes.

Do you see that SWAMPMONSTER in the corner of the tent there ?? The Queen towers above the canopy and the rest of the plants lol. It's really interesting from using the Smart Proteins, i think how they work is that the plant is able to process them and compensate any kind of slight deficiency which means that each plant that gets the proteins is able to grow to it's maximum potential and at the same time grow to its **individual** potential... that's why each of these plants has so much "character", because if you look closely it's less a question of phenotype but more like "individual expression".... INTERESTING !!! Anyway that's about the visual... my main concern about these is how loud they f-ing smell !!! ITS PROBLEMATIC, so be conscious of that if you plant to grow these one day ! REALLY REALLY LOUD, honestly there should be an additional category on GD like "problematic" which is beyond the "strong smell" category. I have two large carbon filters on two 1330m3/h fans and it's a problem. Hope you understand how unusual that is for a plant in veg lol... I think the smart protein probably affects how strong the plants smell because all the plants seem more smelly than expected... TBH i'll fix the smell issue but hopefully it's a good sign and an indicator of the quality i can expect by harvest time? These also got two rounds of defoliation , and i flipped them to flower like 4 days ago. This was an exciting veg to me, but now is when it gets interesting, let's see how beautiful these flowers are !! Test genetics always have that little bit of mystery to them right? By the way, I'm often visiting this site, so drop me a message about whatever, especially if you have advice ! Thanks for following along with me, i appreciate it really ! ITS FLOWER TIME FOLKS LETS SEE! 🚀

This week in my grow room has been full of developments. First, I added additional lights because I couldn't get the relative humidity (RH) under control. I ordered a dehumidifier, but it will take a few weeks to arrive, so I had to find a temporary solution. I also emptied the reservoir and refilled it with fresh water and nutrients. I secured the net to ensure it stays in place under tension. In two days, I plan to switch the light schedule to 12/12, hoping the plants will stretch a bit during the switch to avoid having overly large buds that aren't evenly spread. Seventeen hours later, I decided to keep the lights on a 16/8 schedule for a few more days. The plants are starting to show signs of something happening, so I want to see how they develop. I will keep you updated on the progress. Then, I received a message from my supplier that the dehumidifier would arrive today. Great news—time to spice things up! On June 2nd, the dehumidifier arrived, and I managed to get my Vapor Pressure Deficit (VPD) to 1.17! This is fantastic news, and I'm very curious how this will affect water usage. The dehumidifier seems pretty powerful, with water literally dripping out of the hose, so I'm no longer worried about high humidity levels. It's a shame it doesn't have a range setting, but I couldn't expect more for the price. I'm considering ordering the Dimlux Auxbox to set a working range and separate day/night settings. Thankfully, the dehumidifier has an auto-restart function after a power loss. On June 3rd, the night is over, and while my values are now more stable, I haven't noticed any significant differences in water absorption. What I do notice is that the pots seem much drier. The difference in leaf temperature compared to the room temperature has increased slightly, now about a 2˚C difference, indicating that evaporation has increased somewhat. Despite the dehumidifier cooling the air, the room temperature has risen. This is explainable since dry air heats up faster than humid air. The CO2 heater is also running significantly longer. So, although there are no immediately visible differences, there are indeed some changes. Today is the last short night of 8 hours, and tomorrow will be the first night of 12 hours. I am contemplating doing a 10-hour night first and will decide later tonight. After closely reviewing the video footage, I noticed some divergent colors on the leaves. My pH is currently 6.4, which I had adjusted to compensate for the low pH last week—a foolish decision in coco, I know. I plan to make videos of each individual plant for my records to investigate further. The light is too intense to inspect them up close, so the videos will help me get a better look.

A lot happened this week but she seems to be recovering and not worsening. I fed plain ph’d water end of last week but got a little too cavalier with too much top feeding and adding stuff without adjusting ph. All the top feeding is how debris and runoff kept getting into the base and mucking it up. I was out of homemade calmag so I had a bottle coming in the mail. I ended up adding calmag to not a lot of water and not ph’ing it and top feeding/pouring rest into the watering base later in the day after adding plain ph’d water. Wrong move. She appeared to slow down drinking but I chalked it up to a full base and plenty of top feed. Topsoil dried out very fast but I let her sit assuming she would start drinking eventually. This continued for 3-4 days, and also was happening to one of the photos I did the same thing to. Starting smelling something rank around this time so I checked the bases and found what is in pics 9+10. Ph was 8.5 and had this brown chunky film all over!! Took out all 3 bases and scrubbed thoroughly with soap and water and rinsed with some vinegar. I was worried about how dry and hard the soil/roots must be but I also didn’t want to do a full flush so close to her finishing. I opted to put 1/2 strength tiger bloom/big bloom and full strength calmag into full 1.8 gal water can ph’d to 6.5 and top feed slowly over ~20 min so it didn’t just rinse everything out. About 20% runoff which tested at 5.8 which seemed a little low but not as terrible as I feared. Cleaned the base back out after no more runoff and refilled with normal strength tiger bloom and calmag, ph’d to 6.5. This seems to have been the right move, 60 hours after flushing/cleaning/refilling, she has drank 75% of the base and topsoil is also not dried out. But we’re not done!!! The 2 photos also got a clean base and proper refill. The next day I checked the bases and found some insects on top of the water in ALL 3 bases shown in the last 2 pics. Teeny white things that kinda jumped on top of the water and seemed to stay underneath the fill port to get some of the light coming through? Hard to identify but I think they might have been springtails and not something destructive. Either way I made a weak vinegar/water solution and sprayed them aggressively over 24 hours and they seemed to die and not return. Only saw them in the bases and not anywhere on the plant. A lot of the leaf tip curling and spots spread from last week but seems to be contained and not worsening at the time of writing this. It seems contained to the top ~30% of the fan leaves and minimally on sugar leaves. While her buds did grow and thicken, I’m sure this set her back a little. All in all she had the water ph imbalance, definitely some light stress, nute burn and a little potassium deficiency. Got a little cheap digital microscope as well, trichomes still maturing with at least 30% still clear, plenty of white pistils as well. Some purple coming in on sugar leaf tips. Smell is much stronger. Idk if this is indicative of the buds as well or the “right way” but if I remove any small fan leaves I swipe the stem between two fingers to smell the oils. Still giving a very strong funky citrus scent with an earthy finish. Flipped lights to 12/12 for the photos at the end of the week. I just couldn’t wait any longer with how big the photos are. It also didn’t help that when I adjusted the light for the mimosa and moved it to the middle, the photos were getting much less and resulted in them stretching a lot with too much internode spacing. Not the end of the world but supercropping is definitely in their future.

End of 2nd week of flower update: Hooray I have buds! Little buds starting forming about a week ago and they have put on a little weight. Starting adding bloom booster IE; Bud Explosion from Mega-crop. Couple leaves on plant#2 shows signs of calcium deficiency, so I've been adding Cal+Mg Pro My LST skills are a tad lacking, this is my first attempt so its not too bad, should of started training a bit earlier. other than that Girls look healthy and happy :).

Very nice grow and harvest. FastBuds certainly lived up to its name as she finished in 55 days. Unbelievably dense and fat colas that had packed on the weight due to the Nectar for the Gods nutrients. 0

So this week I took the decision to bend over her cola to clear the lights. I didn't want to scrape any THC off when she's moved 😂 Week 2 of flowering is going well. She's doing her thing.

Diese Woche verlief ohne weitere Probleme. Alles entwickelt sich wie geplant. Die Thripse sind nach der Neemöl-Behandlung nicht mehr zu sehen – scheint gut gewirkt zu haben. Zur Sicherheit habe ich noch AC-Raubmilben ausgebracht, um eventuelle Nachzügler unter Kontrolle zu halten. Außerdem wurden ein paar Blätter entfernt, um die Luftzirkulation zu verbessern und mögliche Verstecke für Schädlinge zu minimieren. Die Pflanzen sehen gesund aus und wachsen kräftig weiter.

I have tasted some even though it is a little early for it to be fully cured. The smoke is very smooth, absolutely no throat hit but within seconds I get a great feeling at the top of my head and melts down to the rest of my body. Grandpa Larry should not operate machinery! Currently don’t have a scale... epic fail, hopefully I will update this with an approximation of yield.

demorou mas está ai a primeira semente da 24k Gold auto da Cannabiorganics! Dia 29/11/2021 - Para minha surpresa essa manhã outra semente da 24k gold auto germinou, ela aparentemente veio das profundezas do vaso de 7 litros ehehehehe essa vai ser forte. Falta somente uma delas germinar para 100% de sucesso. Estou molhando um pouco varias vezes ao dia. Dia 30/11 - tudo normal, crescendo no seu tempo. Dia 01/12/2021 - dia normal Dia 02/12/2021 - dia normal, estou achando elas bem lenta mas é isso. 03/12/2021 - A 24kGold#1 parece estar adorando a luz, ehehe, reguei elas com 250ml de agua hoje e somente. 04/12/2021 - tudo ok 05/12/2021 - tudo certo tirando o fato da 24kgold#2 nao estar se desenvolvendo iniciando a primeira semana oficialmente, vambora 🚀

We ended up harvesting on day 55 of flower for these girls. 2 of these girls stayed shorter and gave a more spaced out bud stucture, while the other 2 took over the tent and were twice as big and gave a more normal compact bud stucture. 1 plant in particular(front left one) took over the main area of the tent on its side and produced about half of the total weight over all. We ran into some problems with stretching this go round as I’m still trying to figure out these light movers. But trial and error will prevail in the long run I’m sure, just takes so long once you make a change to see the results sometimes it’s tricky. Lol we haven’t cured yet but already it is some nice smelling and tasty buds. Got that classic OG kush kinda smell and taste. I will update more on this once we get some curing time in on it. We ended up with just over 10 ounces of bud and a little over an once of smaller popcorn buds, although with the exception of the one that gave us half the weight, most of the buds on the other 3 girls once broken up where all smaller with a few exceptions. But for an early version strain that is crossed with the ruderalis plant for fast flower it didn’t turn out to bad all things considered. 11 ounces off 4 plants in 55 days is ok in my books. Lol we also got a crap load of trim and just the lower fluffy stuff we will use for baking and oil making. Overall it was very easy to go, took some good ph swings like a champ and really didn’t give me any trouble with the exception of my mistakes and experimenting with my light rail movers.

It has been a strange week alternating rains and high temperatures... and in the garden all kind of bugs appeared like it is Spring :( In the last 3 days of this week noticed some leaves with aphids, and some powdery mildew but hopefully not touching the buds, as are covered in a lot of resin and thc, so gotta clean the plant removing all the afected leaves when harvesting and hash is discarded with this plant.. So... the Royal Cheese had to be harvested as soon as possible... but no worries at all as the plant past the middle point of the harvest window(as i say lol), with practically all the trichs milky. Would like to keep the plant like 3 or 4 days more until amber appearing, but the taste of the Cheese is better if you harvest earlier so it is all fine. The colas are so big, did not expect this kind of production with a revegged plant ( but she did not fully flower ), 3 months ago when the plant started to flower. The smell is insulting hahaha, it is stinking all the sorroundings... The neighbours probably are mad about it 😅 But they are kind, did not complain about it.. The feeding schedule: -Water-/-TopCandy-/-Water- Flushing: last 10-11 days until harvest Good vibes!!!!, next diary week will be Harvest
