I've started this week with a heavier defoliation. Not sure it's worth it but I want to try it anyway, might as well make experience. I want to take a break from defoliation though, she's still my first plant so I really don't want to overstress or damage her. Pistils are getting bigger and I can't wait to see the bud! Watching carefully the flowers development as I've never seen that before. Hoping in some final stretch. End of the week: she stretched almost 10 cm in four days. I love this plant. I also rised the EC to 1.7. Still waiting before switching to Canna Flora nutrients. She's beautiful and bushy, I definitely need to slow down with those little frequent defoliations tho. Don't want to stunt her growth, especially now.

8/11 day 21 girls looking real good at 18" to 20" tall, in grow box with lights on at night, out in the sun during daytime hours

It's working fine.

So both the ladies look absolutely beautiful, a bit of a different structure on the two but almost the same size. Jack #1 really has filled out veg wise. Jack #2 seems to be the furthest into flowering of all the autos. The training looks perfect so far, Jack #1 May get a few fan leaves tucked but other than that we are probably gonna leave the ties and just keep making sure they are tight, not adding more. We have also introduced some bloom nutes and dropped the amount of veg nutes. We are probably gonna switch the bulb and got to 12/12 this week! See new pics and check back soon!

Big change in growth this week and they are stinking the tent out stayed stayed see some change in colour in the leaves and buds themselfs around 2 weeks left for these girls then right onto the next

Eccoci ragazzi! Ultimo giorno Dell anno e anche ultimo giorno di vegetativa! Da stasera precisa si cambiano ore di luce e la porto in fioritura, nonostante la sorella è molto più piccola, nn posso aspettare oltre altriementi questa mi diventa troppo alta e grande e avrò problemi.. Quindi come potete vedere da voi, la ragazza sta davvero in ottima salute! Nessun segno di carenza, un verde intenso che è segno di benessere, e radici davvero enormi e giganti! I nodi del fusto sono grossi e spessi quidni penso proprio che nn dovrò mettere alcun sostegno alle cime, sono convinto che questa sarà una delle mie migliori piante idroponiche mai cresciute, è il mio secondo ciclo hydro e sto mettendo a frutto le conoscenze apprese dalla prima esperienza, dalla quale ho tirato fuori un erba spettacolare, ma le cime erano piccole e le piante erano troppo alte, speriamo questa volta che nn accada lo stesso con questa! Questa genetica unita ai nutrienti Terra Aquatica, ha fatto in modo che la pianta avesse un vigore eccezionale! Ma visto una pianta crescere così rapidamente, in suolo o in altro modo, l idroponica se fatta bene con i prodotti giusti ti da risultati impressionanti, basta che alla fine si fa un bel lavaggio delle radici con i prodotti giusti e acqua pura, e vedrete che avrete Dell erba spettacolare! Sono orgoglioso davvero di star avendo un risultato così spettacolare, mentre l altra volta ho avuto problemi di carenza di Cal/mag questa volta glielo ho dato fin dalle prime soluzioni nutritive, quidni verde intenso e foglie spesse, già ora fa odore nonostante nn ci siano fiori! Cmq sono davvero orgoglioso di far parte di questa famiglia spettacolare che è questo social! Mi sta dando le soddisfazioni poi grandi di tutta la mia vita! Grazie sopratutto a tutti voi che mi seguite e mi sostenete, xke senza di voi nn sarei nulla! Un buono anno a tutti e vi auguro un 2026 pieno di soddisfazioni e successi! L entropia Dell esistenza cosciente umana può solo aumentare! Speriamo. Che succeda anche nel mio paese dove non questa mia passione è illegale.. Speriamo bene per il. Prossimo anno venturo.. Un buono 420 a tutti 💪😸🌱🌿🎄🤞🍀🤤😽💨❄️🎉❤️❤️❤️

-first time doing auto and also this is my first crop -i introduce her to full sunlight from day 1 and when the sunlight is off i light up my 100w 6500k led for 7 more hours and let her rest.

I started a new job, so detailed comments will come shortly once I get some time to fill things out. Mostly I just transplanted at week 2 for the Banana Bombs and week 1 for the Cement Shoes... Honestly the Banana Bomb were already looking kinda root bound in their solo cups by the end of 2 weeks, so the advice that the leaf length to cup diameter seems accurate as they were definitely growing out past the cups. The Cement Shoes had decent enough root development that I had no issues with the transfer, but I also may have been able to wait 3 or 4 more days. It doesn't seem to mind one bit though and if anything appeared to have the least shock and quickest recovery time. Just have been watering and keeping to the light schedule. I sprinkled some diatomaceous earth on the top of the pots on Thursday as a kind of potential preventative. I saw a flying bug go into my tent from my room and was unable to smack it, and the last thing I wanted was it getting some ideas to lay some eggs. Hopefully the two days it was on the top of the soil before I watered deterred it, if it even was a bug that would cause issue to begin with (I had no idea but taking no chances). I will introduce molasses and maybe some other botanical or compost teas in the next week or so, possibly with the addition of some malted barley top dressing. We shall see what time and money allows. I also wish to start some kind of IPM with neem, azamax, sm90, Spinosad, D-limonene, or essential oil mixes. Wanting to stick to organic control of course, so options may not include some things or others. If I can afford predatory mites or nematoads or something to toss in the soil, that might be good too. More research must be done.

Follow my grow to see full grow cycle. Happy with what I learned during this run. Only going to get better and better!

***Update*** have switched 2 of 3 to 5 gals will do the other one as soon as I get more coco..looking to veg maybe another 2 weeks then going to flip. Recently acquired LED light for my veg room so have 250w hps n 300w LED..ladies seem to be loving it.

Week-8 veg

🍬

Days 35-42 (Day 36) Some minor problems starting to arise here. A few times this week it got up to 90+ degrees which I think may have caused a bit of heat stress in some of the plants. I’m seeing a bit of cupping/crinkles on some of the fan leaves and some of the new growth is looking pretty gnarled and twisted. I hear windburn can cause this too so I’m turning my fans down to low speed. This could also be a problem with humidity so I’m going to turn off my humidifier, dim the lights and raise them. During my last feeding I mulched in some worm castings but it seems like they’re keeping the soil/coco from drying out. Pots are still decently heavy and even the surface is still quite moist but they aren’t showing any major signs of overwatering. I figure it will only be a few weeks before the castings break down so I will just leave it. A few of the plants are starting to show yellowing leaf tips which is probably some kind of micro nutrient lockout from my PH being slightly too high. It could also be from nute burn so I will water in 6.0 until I see some runoff. Although the most likely culprit is potassium excess. I’ve been feeding potassium almost as much as nitrogen so far. I know that can cause the yellowing of leaf tips by locking out trace minerals. It can also cause leaf problems like crinkling. Excess K can even cause water retention! Will water at 6.0 until run off next watering. The lst is coming along nicely. It was a good idea to remove the first two sets of branches (not leaves). Now I have 4-6 perfectly even stems coming from each plant that I plan to top one more time each. (Day 37) Today I’m going to vacuum, clean, wipe down and spray all my equipment in the tent. I’ve been letting the floor get quite dirty and I haven’t had the chance for a thorough clean since last round. I’m kind of surprised I haven’t seen any powdery mildew yet. I guess the prevention spray is working because the room has to be infected from my last crop. (Day 40) I was reading that you can foliar spray whatever you are deficient in for an immediate uptake. I‘m going to try that with my current potassium excess since it locks out trace minerals. I’m going to foliar feed a bit of phytoplankton at 15ml/L and some MagnifiCal + VeloKelp from Remo nutrients both at 5ml/L. The cal mag is not organic but as long as it’s not going into the soil and doesn’t contain chlorine I’m fine with it. I’m also going to be changing the light cycle to 18/6 for the remainder of veg. This will be their first dark cycle so they can properly foliar feed. Edit: humidity shot up to 85% a few hours after foliar spray. I went to top dress everything today and I mixed up the plants while doing so! So the ones I was unsure about I gave 1 extra tablespoon. I won’t top dress again for at least 10 days. Might give a light tea sometime next week. I also tilled the shit out of the top of each pot. It had a hard crusty layer on top that was keeping the medium from drying out properly. I’m not going to water again until everything is bone dry. Then I will water until slight runoff at 6.0 ph with some Dr. Marijane bacteria/root probiotic. I’m starting too see a lot more of these abrasions on some of the bigger fan leaves. It almost looks like thrip damage but I’m 100% sure it’s not a pest above ground. It could be bulb mites, which I found in my worm castings but I can’t check until the roots are more established in their pots. The leaves themselves are cold and feel damp to the touch. I haven’t even seen a fungus gnat since I last fed. I’m hoping it’s related to the K excess and clears up with the troubleshooting. (Day 41) Just ordered a wire cube rack to prop my plants up with and help evaporation/root warmth. Each cube is 11.8”x11.8”x11.8” and it comes with 16 cubes. So it will fit just perfectly in my 4x4. Depending on the size, I might order another one for the flower room where I would need 25 cubes.

Hello m8 welcome to this journey with me in this diary will have very interesting strains hope u find something useful O.G. Kush Titanium - [ ] 1st week Veg: germinated in substrate lighting very close so it jets medium high humidity after the 3rd day they started sprouting - [ ] 2nd week Veg: this week my ventilator broke down and as the temperature stayed very warm nothing developed much - [ ] 3rd week Veg:fortunately this week i had fixed the ventilation and the temperature has go down a bit allowing the little plants to develop and reinforce - [ ] 4th week:very good developments in this week I already started feeding a bit two times but i didn’t have to…once was enough - [ ] 5th week Veg:this week they were very strong green i only had to water them good and keep the ventilators going no stop .They have good hight already ,but as i have to strains together. I want to transplant them when the hight of the other one have stretched… I’m thinking to transplant next week if not the next one - [ ] 6th week Veg: this week it went great fortunatly i dont have pests that eat my buds i’ve givven a fed once the substrate is very rich already the plants streached very well i will transplant today so be ready m8 i cant wait to show you the progress - [ ] 1st week Fl:they started stretching and looking very healthy just transplanted - [ ] 2nd week Fl this week I’ve been away i had a friend taking care of them they stretching very well i hope that she starts putting energy into the flo - [ ] 3rd week Fl:they are streaching very well ..getting the light very well - [ ] 4th week Fl: - [ ] 5th week Fl - [ ] 6th week Fl - [ ] 7th week Fl

The temperatures, humidity, height, and watering volume(if measured) in grow conditions are all averaged for the week. The pH is soil pH. Any watering done by me is well water which is 7.6 pH and 50° F. Coop Poop, Feather Meal, and Soluble Kelp are ml/gallon of soil top dressed. Everything else listed in nutrients is ml/gallon of water fed to plants without checking the solution Ph. Day 1 we had a high temperature of 85°F with mostly sunny skies. The girls are happy. I think I missed hitting the nutes hard for mid flower. Day 2 we had a high temperature of 79°F. We missed the rain, but had a big dew and it was 90+ humidity. I watered about 5 gallons each. Day 3 we had a high temperature of 78°F. It was mostly cloudy and super humid, but again no rain. I watered about 5 gallons each. I fed coop poop at 75ml top dressed and Soluble Kelp 50ml top dressed. Day 4 we had a high temperature of 89° with clear sunny skies. Humidity is still up. I watered about 5 gallons each pot. Day 5 we had a high temperature of 88°F with mostly sunny skies. I watered about 5 gallons. Day 6 we had a high temperature of 91. Skies were clear during the day. I watered about 5 gallons of well water. Day 7 we had a high temperature of 91°F with mostly sunny skies. I added 160ml of molasses to top of pot and washed it in with my watering wand. I watered about 5 gallons. Run off isn't an issue. The girls are rooted through the pots into the ground and the loved the K in the molasses. This week was a success. The buds are filling out and the smell is incredible. Like super loud lemon orange tang. They're sweet and the lemon mandarin orange smell can't be missed. I'm a little disappointed at the stretch and I didn't blow up the buds. I'm suspecting a combo of these getting more shade and not getting the right nutes at the right time. Even with all that they have lots of frosty buds on them.

Some of you may have wondered: Why do I use CO2 at average 950 ppfd μmol/m2/s (moral flow)? The answer is quite simple. Because of lack of space in some regions of my cultivation area, I simply cannot keep the ideal distance to my Sanlight high-performance lamp, due to some height growth of various strains. And so some of the main colas have ppfd values of 1250 μmol/m2/s and even more... So this is how I manage to achieve and compensate for such high radiation levels even with a CO 2 balance. And I have to say, my strategy to avoid various light stress symptoms works just fabulously. In combination with CO 2 implementation, my babies are simply unbeatably insensitive to light. Thats it! Beginning of 3rd week flowering: Again feeding my babies by 36 hours fermented potions of Bio Tabs Kompost Tea PK-Booster (15 g pro Liter) and added: 5ml Orgatrex/Liter 1 Spoon of Bactrex 1 Spoon of Mycotrex 1 Spoon of Mycco-Vital 1 Spoon of Dynomyco A little tip for those who are interested in small modifications that have a big difference or influence - on the result - effect - beauty - health - taste! Before adding microorganisms or beneficial bacteria or Mycorrizae and Trichodermas, please use oxygen-saturated water. On the one hand, unwanted chlorine gases evaporate and the small world of the microbiome becomes even faster and more rewarding in compost tea to sprout. Last but not least for this week, I would like to introduce my reasons, why I prefer growing biologically and sustainably. First of all, it’s something which suits very well in these times/days we are living now. Sustainability is a big need and task for our planet. 🌎 Nature means life. Our home, the air we breathe and everything that surrounds us. Not just today. Hopefully tomorrow as well. Maybe I'm starting to protect our environment on a small scale, but maybe I can also make a big difference at all. If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change... I thought about what’s the difference, between Mineral Feeding and Super Soil Feeding. It’s very easy. Biologically Growing is a similar process than the natural soil activities out there in the lap of nature’s. So plants has to work and interact with the microorganisms and microbiomic communities in the soil. So the plants will never get lazy like the lazy ones of mineral feeding growers. If you grow biologically, you will feed the soil first and the microorganisms will support every parameter next to your plant conditions. And that will generate an unbelievable spectrum of Terpenes and Trichomes you will never forget. It’s the same comparison, when you daily visit McDonalds and you eat only fast food. How does your body and mind react on this shit for money?!?! May I invite you to think about it… See you next week dear Growmies! Have a nice Weekend and take care… Peace out! Addendum for Day 53: At the moment we unfortunately have another winter onset here in Germany. This means that I am forced to take additional heating measures due to structural facts in order to be able to keep the temperatures constant. After all, just tonight the thermometer climbs again to -1 degree Celsius. In addition, my exhaust air system runs out of my bedroom terrace and I therefore grow winter and summer with the patio door open. Well, sometimes I experience real weather-related challenges. But all in all, no problem... "Where there's a will, there's a way." Addendum to pouring out the fermented PK tea: I always administer half a liter of lukewarm aerated water with 3.5 ml of cannazyme per liter to each plant. This means that the "root machine" is not supplied with supplies unprepared and the nutrient solution can thus also be better distributed in the soil. Since I also work with cloth shoes, I spray them evenly moistened everywhere with water that is also warm before pouring them out from the outside. This has the advantage that the moisture stays where it should: in the pot! ... I did the math today ;-) We are still in week 7 until this Friday. And week 8 starts on Friday! OMG... still so much time yeahh! Today my Fast Buds Sour Jealousy and Sweet Seeds Big Devil and Dark Devil Automatics arrived. I'm looking forward to it. This time Fast Buds next Time Sweet Seeds. Love them too. Very beautiful genetics. Today a review video of the beginning of week 3. At the time of the pictures, I had minor signs of nitrogen excess. (Light peaks first at the crown of the roof and then slightly continuing to the middle section.) I then painstakingly racked my brains as to why this could be. I found that very slight dry spots had formed and therefore the root found small accumulations of nitrogen that caused its problems. But then, when I carefully homogeneously checked the moisture content in the substrate, the problem evaporated again. However, they had not shown any loss of growth rate during this time. Nevertheless, they developed as expected. They Strawnanas had no problem with that. In the end, I always have a hard time killing them. But I guess that's the way things go. We live and die. We come and go. But it's not there yet. ;-) Tomorrow is day 56. Tomorrow’s updating day! Can't wait to see their progress. Have a good time and see you tomorrow… 🏽🕊️ 🏽 ☮️🕊️

Not much to do this week. Plants are doing great ! Since a few weeks the leaves have small spots. They are not insects, not spider mites. But I don't know what it is. Started to add BioFinale PK 0.5ml/500ml water/24l pot

Into 2nd day of week 3. Jealousy/Green Poison inside the Epic Attic Tent 1.2x1.2x1.6. Growing Under 'Karma EVO 3' SkyWalker OG Inside unbranded 60x60x120 Tent. Growing under 'Karma Stealth 1000'

planted 10 gorgeous autoflowers, everything went up on the third day

Start of week 2 flowering. This girl is hungrier than her round 1 sister. Probably because of the extra veg time, she has developed more root and plant mass that needs more nutrients. The plant itself is growing nicely, stretching a little and filling out.
