June 8: planted out first one. Other two are in a single peat pot as I messed up during planting. Oh well. Using peat pots as intermediate containers because it is too cold here to start seeds outdoors in final containers. Solo cups last year didn’t work well cuz I left them in the cups too long. Hence my later start using peat pots this year.

Plenty growth shown on most plants, unfortunately we lost 3 to slugs ate every node on the plants so they been pulled. Will put some autos in replace of them. Topped a few this week to try get them bushed out. Had a good feed of grow, hopefully this slug pellets will keep them at bay and they will be stress free. That’s all this week! Happy growing🌱

About 10 days for official transition to show.

Wow what a week this has been, the plants have all undergone fair dramatic changes. A real flurry of leaf yellowing, pistil darkening/curling, and bug swelling. The smell is really coming along now, I think we're really quite close to harvest. On the assumption that pre-flowering was two weeks, this strain should be ready at the end of week seven flowering, so in the case of this diary the end of week nine (i.e. one week to go!). Pistils are about 70-80% amber, and the lower pistils on buds have started curling inward. Trichomes look to me to be something like 10% clear 80% Milky 10% White. I have smoke tested a small bud off the lower part of plant 3 today after quick-drying overnight in the airing cupboard, taking into consideration the obvious chlorophyll from the fast dry, the high was much closer to what I am expecting than the last smoke test. It came on at the normal pace, was quite effective, and lasted a good while. I am really hoping I can navigate my way through the next process, as I feel quite close now to having some home grown bud for the first time. The plants are being well watered this evening with just water, and this will be the last time that I water them until harvest. I will continue to monitor these daily, I intend to harvest at the first sign of any amber trichome. Advice and comments welcomed. P.S. Exciting news! My order from Green House Seeds arrived today for my next diaries! :)

🍋🍊 Lemon Orange #1 - #4 🍊🍋 First time diving into the Lemon Orange grow, and the excitement is real! 🙌 As a huge fan of Green House Seed Company, choosing this strain for the first cultivation is a dream come true.

Germination & Veg Timeline: 🍊 Day 1: Seeds hit the scene, into cotton pads for that cozy germination kickoff. 🍊 Day 3: Transferred to small rockwool cubes, enjoying a splash of RO water at a perfect pH 5.5. 🍊 Day 6: Celebration time! Started feeding nutrients by Terra Aquatica with the first true leaves emerging. Used 80% of the recommended dose. Noticed a hint of calcium deficiency, so switched to dechlorinated tap water. 🍊 Day 9: Upped the game, into large rockwool cubes (15x15 cm). The roots are spreading their wings. 🍊 Day 12: Nutrient dance continues. Adjusted the ratio to the Growing phase, still giving 80% of the recommended amount. pH is grooving at 5.8. 🍊 Day 24: It's topping day! Right between the 4th and 5th nodes, shaping the plant for greatness. 🍊 Day 27: Time for a scrog net to guide those branches into a harmonious canopy. And now, the grand finale of veg 🍊 Day 36: Last day of veg. The Lemon Orange #1 - #4 has been a joy to nurture. Ready to witness the flowering stage unfold. 🌸💚

Week 5 for the Green Papaya from super sativa seeds club. Amazing plant, she has beautiful buds and a amazing sweet smell, ah and dont forget the high amount of trichomes she produces, and very very compact buds. this plant is great for a scrog, next time i will leave her with even more topping and lst and then fill a net, she has very potent, compact and nice buds perfect for this. Outdoor this plant shows pink pistils because of the slightly lower temperature at night. Adding also one picture for reference, that one if from a friend who has a clone of mine

Week three these ladies only stretched about 1'. Got to see some nice bud development and did alot of plant training. Canopy is filling out nice, no issues thus far.

Week 6 Day 38 of flower 08/14/2020 ~Average~ Temp: 76-84f RH: 42% Ph: 5.9-6.2 Notes: Everything is right on schedule. These ladies are swelling by the day, trichromes production is still at large. The trichromes are starting to be noticeable from the eye. I checked with my digi scope and the trichromes are mostly clear with milky, little to no amber. I will keep my eye on those these next couple of weeks. Happy cultivating✌️🏽

Yellowing advancing brow spots, some leafs drying and falling off. One girl I will flush tomorrow to cut on the weekend. The other 2 have more one week or 2. Is these yellowing hurt on the stage the girls are?

Another week almost over, the girls are beautiful and smell great. Apparently everything is under control, I'm really looking forward to the results. Happy growing! 🌱🌱🌱

Trics and terps for days! Bud medium sized.

Week 13 in the books! was a full flush week, as I will be harvesting mid wk 14. Ive been watching tricomes, taking snipits of sugar leaves, and checking them over. These are 2nd & 3rd gen grows, from prev collected random strains.. In other words, Its always a Surprise as to what strain comes out. Ive got 3 different strains here.. a Sativa looking, a very White strain, and 2 plants of a colorful purplish strain.

Yesterday was a big day! I finally upgraded her to the 4x4 tent with a 650W light, moving from the cozy 3x3 with a 300W. 🎉 During the transition, I made a few rookie mistakes that led to some discoloration on the upper canopy leaves. But hey, no worries! As @autopotamus wisely says, “We’re growing flowers, not just leaves.” A little defoliation is part of the journey, and she’ll bounce back stronger than ever! 💪 Every experience is a lesson or a blessing. This time, I learned! 🌟 What lessons have you all picked up on your growing adventures? Let’s keep sharing and growing together!

This week was half veg half bloom. I may have to find a new home soon so I've decided to flip all my plants into flowering by the middle of week 08. This lovely AK-420 is the smallest plant in the room, but probably the cutest. Her tight nodes are ready to explode with flowers and her stalks, hidden beyond large leaves, are strong enough to support heavy buds. She had a slight Calcium deficiency that was treated immediately and the recovery was quick. I'm confident she will become a nice bush. She no longer has the canopy ring, in order to "let her breath" and grow vertically. Wait & see! 😎

Gegen Ende der Woche starte ich langsam das Flushing

Ha sido una planta que se ha desarrollado muy bien, tuve que practicar la poda apical porque se partió ompió al intentar practicar low stress. Hasta ahora se están desarrollando unos cogollos resinosos con una distancia internodal muy corta . El nuevo sustrato de nuestros amigos de ProMix está funcionando de una forma asombrosa. Sólo aplicaco nutrientes una vez por semana. El engorde de los cogollos ya esta aqui, en una semana estara lista para el lavado de raíces y pronto corte. Se aplica nutrientes según la dosis recomendada por el fabricante.
