The Olympia Auto has just entered flowering. The plant has remained quite small, likely due to the intense cold stress (temperatures below 10ºC) it experienced—similar to other autos I'm cultivating this season. Despite its size, I'm impressed by how much it’s stretching in this phase; it just keeps growing. The aroma is still weak but gradually increasing each day. Health: The plant looks healthy and beautiful. It’s a shame that only one plant emerged from the seed pack, but even though I haven’t harvested yet, I’m eager to grow this strain again! Ambient Conditions: This week started off hot (with a minimum of 23ºC and a maximum of 30ºC), but a cold front has now brought temperatures back down (with a minimum of 11ºC and a maximum of 20ºC). Humidity remains quite low, around 30-35%. Training: I haven’t done any training or defoliation on this plant. Fertilization: I applied Ekosil (silica + potassium), another dose of bokashi, and a dose of nitrogen, with one more nitrogen application planned for the end of this week. Pest Control: I'm continuing with Beauveria treatments, and I no longer have issues with the fungus gnats that had appeared earlier. Watering: I’ve been watering the plant very minimally, as the substrate has been staying moist on its own. Looking Forward: From this point on, there’s not much left to do except watch the flowering progress.

DAY 62 1 day early of start of new week, just waiting for some more ambers, nearly ready🎉 Still running RO only, 40 PPM. Still keeping it pH’d, it likes to drop slowly still. However, I don’t get why pH is important during flush tho. Not like I need to keep nutrients available for plant to suck up... 🤷‍♂️ I’ve been considering drilling some holes into the base of the main stem as to simulate the stalk-splitting technique. Maybe it’ll help speed things up... I’ll check trichs again tonight when lights kick on and make an executive decision and post updated pictures if it’s a go ahead. Day 63 I split me some stalks! Uploaded a video of the procedure. Day 64 This phenotype is developing purple leaves? Photos uploaded. Day 65 Harvesting... Day 66 More Harvesting... Day 67 Taking clones, moving veg plants to bloom tent. This grow is drying.

Made the flip to flower to start this week. Did a bunch of lst to get the side branches booming for the Scrog. Put a second net right above her to start things off spacing and structre wise. Second she starts to stretch its scrog game on! Got her on a well balanced diet to support her transition period. Can't wait to see her explode and take off! Start rowing me out some colas! Treated her with lost coast as a preventative. Next up us dr zhymes in 5 days. Until next update. Happy growing and stay lit fam.

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 grow. 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 Blue cheese Auto from Royal queen seeds will turn out. Blue Cheese automatic cannabis seeds are a cross of Blueberry Automatic and Cheese Automatic that has been perfected over five years of breeding and careful selection. The result is a feminized, autoflowering strain with superior yield, flavor, and effects to either of its distinguished parent strains. THC: 16% CBD: Low Yield Indoor : 325 - 375 gr/m2 Yield Outdoor: 60 - 110 gr/plant Height Indoor: 40 - 70 cm Height Outdoor: 60 - 110 cm Flowering: 7 - 8 weeks Harvest month: 9-10 weeks after planting Genetic Background: Blueberry x Cheese x Ruderalis Type: Sa 35% In 40% Ru 25% Effect: Cerebral and uplifting Climate: Mild .............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. Update 2017-08-15. All 4 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 4 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 perilite and mix it all together. ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ Update 2017-08.20. Nr1 and 2 grow and thrive. Number 3 just got rid of the seedpod and is folding out the sheets. Number 4 is a bit shy and can only be seen if you look carefully into the soil. ......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Update 2017-08-21. Nr 1 and 2 is doing well. Nr3 is trying to catch up and Nr4 is still shy.

(3.8.22) Day 21 of flower. Watered each plant 2.5L of nutrient mix. POST NUTE FEED RUNOFF LEVELS: Plant 1: 1605ppm, 6.2ph Plant 2: 1367, 6.6ph Apprehensive/not sure how to go about further defoliation. I’ve removed everything from below the net, and taken away every fan leaf that looks like it’s not directly connected to a bud site. Everything that remains appears to be connected to a bud site. Do I need to remove more? On one hand, I’m afraid that I’ll end up stressing out the plant this far into flower. On the other, I’m afraid of possibly running into PM at some point. RH is increasing with the warmer weather (between 45-55, 65 on a rainy day). Lots of little leaves laying on each other. Thinking about getting a small dehumidifier to put into the tent. Also, just going forward with future grows, should I have removed every branch that grew out of one of my mains? If you look at the photo below the net, I’ve got my main branches and all those little stems that branched out seem to be what’s really causing the crowding. I thought the point of LST was to have it do exactly that, but looking at everyone else’s grow it looks like they just limit themselves to the big main branches and clean up everything else. (VIDEO) I've got two 6" fans. One at the bottom right under the net blowing up, one at the back left above the plant (but slowly being taken over) blowing down. Everything in between seems to be dancing around with air. It being my first grow, I'm not sure if I'm not doing enough or overdoing it lol (post script): For plant 1, the scrog net is only 8 inches above the soil. With plant 2, it's only 5 inches above the soil. I was so concerned about the plant "possibly doubling or tripling in flower" that I really LST'd my plant early on and did my best to level her out. As a result, I was able to fill out the perimeter of my tent easily, but there was not much vertical growth to speak of. This meant that when I put my scrog up, it was barely above the rim of each pot. Next time/grow, I may experiment with letting the plant get a little more height before leveling her out? Idk/not sure. Also, my light placement was close enough that my node spacing was VERY tight. I've read that this is a good "problem" to have, but I can't help but thinking if my plants had a bit more verticality to them they'd be easier to work with. (3.10.22) Watered both plants with 2.5L of ph'd water. Was a bit lower than I would have liked at approx 6.2ph, ppm was 83 Post water runoff: Plant 1 - 6.2ph/1248ppm Plant 2 - 6.3ph/776ppm

Hi everyone 🤗. The last 5 women are nearing their end 😍. They will be harvested in the next 2-3 weeks. The rest of the ones that have already been harvested are currently fermenting 😍. The finished harvest pictures come when everyone is finished together 👍. This ends the last diary that was kept with several varieties. From now on only single strain diaries are coming, all individually ;-). I wish you a nice week, stay healthy 🙏🏻 and let it grow 🌱

On day 1 I transplanted 2 BB clones into 3 gal smart pots with coco coir. I watered them in with veg formula and set up my blumat watering system with week 1 flower nutes. I raised PPFD to 600-700. On day 2 the reservoirs PH was adjusted from 6.4 to 6.0. The rez is 823 ppm. The tops are 16.5" from the grow light. The blumats have not started watering yet and I will monitor to ensure it goes smoothly. I have the blumats set at 1.25 carrots on left plant and 1 carrot on right plant. The average PPFD of my 16 tops is 703 PPFD. I increased temps to 85 day 81 night to get leaf surface around 80 f during day. On day 3 the reservoirs PH is 6.2. The rez is 782 ppm. The blumats have started watering and I will monitor closely over the next few days. On day 4 the reservoirs PH was adjusted from 6.3 to 6.1. The rez is 717ppm. On day 5 the reservoirs PH is steady at 6.1. The rez is 706 ppm. The highest top is 15.25" from the light. I defoliated to bring in more air and light to deeper into the canopy. I increased the flow rate of blumat by .5 carrot on the right plant as it was a little to dry for my liking. The Clones are preforming well. On day 6 the reservoir PH is going down so I adjusted up from 6.0 to 6.2. The rez is 730 ppm. The highest cola is 14.75" from the light. The left plant had a runaway so I reduced blumat by 1 carrot. I increased flow of blumat on right plant by .5 carrot as it is still drier than I would like. On day 7 the reservoirs PH was adjusted from 6.3 to 6.0. The highest cola is 14.25". I reset rez with nutes.

🍁💐 Runtz: La Runtz de Zamnesia 🌱🔥 es una variedad de cannabis de alta calidad, resultado del cruce entre las legendarias Zkittlez 🍬 y Gelato 🍦. Este híbrido perfectamente equilibrado, con un 50% índica 🛋️ y un 50% sativa 🌞, combina lo mejor de ambas genéticas para ofrecer una experiencia intensa 💥, sabrosa 😋 y completa. Su nivel de THC puede alcanzar el 27%. El TS1000 de Mars Hydro es una lámpara LED increíble para el cultivo interior 🌱💡. Ofrece una excelente combinación de potencia y eficiencia, perfecta para espacios pequeños y medianos. Su espectro completo simula la luz solar 🌞, ideal para todas las etapas del cultivo, desde la germinación hasta la floración. Además, el consumo energético es súper bajo ⚡, pero la producción es impresionante 🌿🔥. La distribución uniforme de la luz asegura plantas sanas y cosechas abundantes. Definitivamente es una gran inversión. Para este Concurso usaré la gama de fertilizantes de Plagron tal como mandan las reglas 📆 Semana 2: Se ajustó ligeramente el riego para evitar el exceso de humedad, ya que el sustrato tiende a mantenerse bastante húmedo debido a las temperaturas más bajas, pero no ha habido signos de estrés en las plantas hasta ahora. La circulación de aire también parece ser óptima, ya que no se observa ningún signo de moho o hongos. A nivel de nutrientes, él comenzó a aplicar una dosis suave de fertilizantes, ya que las plantas están comenzando a establecerse bien en su etapa vegetativa. En cuanto a plagas, no he tenido problemas de ningún tipo hasta ahora, lo que me deja tranquilo. Lo que más me sorprende es lo rápido que se están desarrollando, y creo que la genética de este Runtz realmente se adapta bien a mi configuración. Este comentario incluye detalles sobre el crecimiento, el ajuste del riego y nutrientes, el manejo del ambiente, y el estado general de las plantas, proporcionando un informe completo y detallado. Si hay algún aspecto que te gustaría añadir o modificar, házmelo saber.

Chopped Wednesday the 11th. Trimmed and began curing the 21st. 4oz of super dense sticky bud. 1 pound of high grade trim and 2 oz of low grade trim. This plant was truly strange the places it chose to grow Trichomes. Stay tuned because I will be making hash with the high grade trim. Also will be uploading smoke score in two weeks Thank you to anyone who followed and god bless!

In a 1m x 1m tent, Lumii 315w , (using marshydro SP150 in flower stage), secret Jardin fan, carbon filter, intake fan 5”, humidifier. So out of the four seeds popped last week three where successful in rooting. Added a sprinkle of great white shark to help with root stimulation and just water. Root are starting to show on the side of the cup so almost time to transplant to bigger pots (moving into fabric pots) Transplanted in to fabric 20l pots with feeding powder at a low dosage. But unfortunately one transplant didn’t go to plan and part of the tap root snapped (but not going to give up on her yet) 1L of water in cups 4L of water in fabric pots 20L 33g bio grow

Hi Growmies, She is doing what she is supposed to be doing. Little bud sights are forming everywhere, let’s see how much further she will stretch, but from what it looks like right now, I would say I’ll let her just Strich through the scrog now. Thanks for stopping by and see you next week :)

11.08. Update – Day 13 • The plants are continuing steady early vegetative growth. • Leaf development looks good, with a healthy green color and compact structure. • Stems are becoming stronger, showing stable progress since germination. ⸻ Pest Situation • Unfortunately, the thrips problem is still present, despite thorough cleaning of the grow area beforehand. • To address this issue in a natural way, I have ordered beneficial nematodes. • They are expected to arrive in the next few days and should help control the thrips population effectively. ⸻ Notes & Outlook • Until the nematodes arrive, close observation of the leaves continues to be necessary. • The plants themselves are holding up well, showing resilience despite the pest pressure. • I am confident that once the nematodes are applied, the situation will improve and allow for uninterrupted growth. ⸻ 🌱 Day 13 – steady growth continues, with pest control measures soon being implemented.
