Top dressed with some more soil. The top was looking depleted and just want to keep it from completely taking all the nutrients from the soil. Added a mix of power bloom with azomite and glacial rock dust. I watered in with some pure protein dissolved into hot water then added to the water I was using at diluted levels. The second watering they got this week was with molasses. which also does a good job of dropping the ph of my water to the perfect level and a little bit of Epsom salt because I ran out of my cal mag and also want the plant to have plenty of sulfur. Last week the stalks were starting to lean but were all getting good light so I did not mess with them but this week they were sagging just a little too much and i oppted for the plant tie to the top of the tent to keep the buds in the sweet zone of the light and to prevent pockets of an unfavorable environment. Very happy with how the buds are developing. the are not rock hard but dense and the amount of trichomes and weight is surprising when i was lifting the branches. Starting to look like shes slowing down a little but may even go to 9 weeks from the looks of it. i and not going to rush her.

A planta segue forte, saudável e explosiva. Na última semana, a evolução dela a cada 24h foi algo impressionante. Segurei um pouco na nutrição para prevenir um overfert. Fiz uma leve defoliação e também tirei alguns brotos menos promissores. Seguimos aí para mais uma semana. Colaborem com meu cultivo e me ajudem com dicas! ⛓️💪🏽

The plants have grown very fast this week, easily doubling in size. I moved them closer to the light to 90 cm from 110cm. Watering as needed and I am keeping the soil surface moist with light watering twice a day. I have fed the plants twice this week. First with a half dosage humic + fulvic acids, microbial inoculant and Seagro. The second feeding was half dose Seagrow and Biobizz BioGrow with some CalMag and Silicon. I am preparing a compost tea with some added kelp meal, insect frass and worm castings for the next feeding before I start LST.

Hello Diary. Two new diaries. Hulkberry and Green Gelato, both Automatic. Many thanks to RQS for these strains, and I am very happy to be starting with the new storys. WHY HULKBERRY AUTOMATIC? HulkBerry Automatic is Royal Queen Seeds’ revved-up version of Bruce Banner #3 Auto. She’s one of the most potent autos you can get your hands on, easily outperforming many photoperiod strains in this area. Her compact and frosty flowers provide a THC content of up to 21%, enough to satisfy the most experienced of smokers. Expect a wave of euphoria to crash over you after a vape hit or bong bowl of HulkBerry Automatic. The strain is motivating, increases alertness, and gets the creative juices flowing. She makes a superb smoke when listening to music and watching films, or when indulging in your own creative endeavours. Overall, she’s an excellent strain for daytime use. LET'S START FIRST WITH THE FARM SET-UP: Box - Secret Jardin DS120W 120x60x178 Lights - MIGRO 200+ Ventilation - Blauberg Turbo - E 100 Fan - Oscillating Koala Fan Humidifier - Beurer LB 45 Soil - BIOBIZZ Light - Mix Pot - 11L Fabric Pot from RQS Seed - Royal Queen Seed Nutrition - BioBizz and RQS Organic nutrition I apologize in advance for the detailed documentation, or the large number of photos, but I enjoy it, and I think it will help others around tracking their plants. LET THE DIARY START OFFICIALLY: 10/06/2020. planting. I have prepared everything I need for planting. The 11lit fabric pot I got from RQS, also Organic Boost Nutrition and Mycorrhizza from RQS, Soil is Light-Mix from BioBizz and of course the seeds of the new strain Hulkberry Automatic. After adding 50g of pellets from Organic Nutrition and 5g of Mycorrhizze, I mixed everything well in the pot. After that I watered well and soaked the soil, I dug a hole with a wooden stick about 2-3 cm, I first put 1g of mycorrhize and then put the seeds inside. I lightly covered the hole with earth and put the pots in their new home. I planted two Hulkberries and one Green Gelato Automatic. The temperature was about 25 degrees and the humidity about 65%. 14/06/2020. She sprouted. After 4 days, Hulkberries came out. In the meantime, I sprayed the surface of the earth a little twice. The temperature is still around 26 degrees, thanks to the summer and the high temperature that enters the apartment anyway. I regulate the humidity with a humidifier, I maintain it around 60% -65%. 15/06/2020. Their first photo shoot, I also watered their with about 2 liters of water, which I only regulated p.H. at 6.3 with Plagron, Lemon Kick. 19/06/2020. Day 1. Hulkberries is officially one day old. On that occasion I took another photo shoot to celebrate this big day :). 24/06/2020. First Feeding First feeding. Their got a whole meal from BioBizz, Root-Juice, Bio-Heaven and Acti-Vera, p.H of water I regulated with Lemon Kick from Plagron. 25/06/2020. Day 7. End of the first week. For now, everything is great. It is developing nicely, its conditions are almost perfect. Hulkberry #1 - Day 7. - 9 cm Hulkberry #2 - Day 7. - 10 cm I think that’s all for this week, I’m happy that it’s starting all over again, following its development and looking forward to what’s to come. See you next week.

Harvest time for Mandarin dreams round 2. Both phenos did amazing during round 2 under the Mars-Hydro TSW2000 light. The buds are incredible and the way these ladies grew was very impressive. Hopefully they are heavy buds, will know in 7-10 days if they have the dry weight to back up their awesome appearance. April 16 update - MD2 - 70 grams, MD1 - 73 grams. Again results are close to round 1. The TSW2000 light delivers!

First day of second week, its been 8 days since this babies sprouted, and from my newbie eyes, they seem to be growing quite happy and healthy Starting to add Bio/Grow since yesterday, going for 1ml/l for at least 2 or 3 more days, then doubling the dosage to see how they handle Day Number 11 Update> Plant 2 in the center seems to have much wider leaves than 1 and 3, obviosly because its recieving more light than the others Upping just a tiny bit of the Bio/Grow since today

Week 1. 14/09/2022 Spring is full on here acourding to Google but it's just not getting warmer. Full blow rain and wind. Had to bring in the tent that I got for protection. This will impact the grow and hopefully not too much. Finally the Sun is out and it's feeling like Spring. Time to get the soils biology in the right space. I cooked up a Tea that focuses on the Micro nutrition, Root development and Pest control. Use a airpump and lift it out for about 24 hours after the mix. Tea ingredients: Aloe Vera Garlic Cinnamon Molasses Fish Poop Prawn juice 🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱 Take a Hit! Thanks for reading!

Day 58. Apparently the plant has a bit of excess Nitrogen, so I changed the fertilizer in the reservoir, removing CalMag I have lowered the levels and N, because CalMag has 4-0-0. Lowering the ppm to 650 (before 750). Thank you for the advice @SeedLover 😁 I also start to try the new microscope that has arrived today. :D Let's see how it progresses!

All feeds with nutes use either a whole ratio or combination of "Veg Mix" and "Bloom Mix"concentrates DILUTED in water until a total ppm of add in is reached using a (Total Dissolved Solids)TDS Meter measured in PPM (parts per million). The "Veg Mix" concentrate will eventually be added in smaller ratios and "Bloom Mix" concentrate what will eventually replace the "Veg Mix" concentrate entirely with the ppm and ratios listed when I feed. Veg mix recipe is on week 3. Bloom Mix recipe is on week 5. Day 70/0 Flipped to 12/12 - increased ppfd by 100 and worked to stabilize temps/humidity with new gear. I used 15 minutes of IR light before main lights and then 30 minutes of UV light at mid day and will still use 15 minutes of IR light after main light are out. I plan to increase the time of UV lights to a max of 2.5 hours per day mid day but for now Im easing her into the treatments. Watered with 1.12 gallons of 6.3ph de-chlorinated tap water, used 50ppm of veg mix and 50ppm of bloom mix in the water. VPD is mostly steady 74F/65%RH/33%ILV Day 71/1 tested and calibrated my meter, tested the top soil 1 day after feed for ph - tested 4 times for an avg of 6.48 Trimmed brown leaves and did some HST/LST training/binding. Took control pics for UV treatments of 15 minutes per day. Will monitor and increase weekly it she holds up okay. Still doin 15 minutes of IR light before and after lights on/off. PPFD after training was 630 at highest and 540 lowest. VPD was 74F/60%RH/33%ILV Day 72/2 Just a watch today, VPD was 75F/60%RH/setting 4/10 of ILV (about 33% like the last tent) PPFD ranged from 530 to 650. I only used 5 minutes of UV light today as she has a tinge of browning on the tips of a few leaves. Im not cutting it out completely because I still plan to use upto 2.5 hrs by end of flower, so she needs to adjust. Im also still using 15 minutes of IR before and after main light schedule. Her stretch seems to be picking up, from 16 inches 2 days ago to 18 today. Day 73/3 VPD same as yesterday 75F/60%RH/40%ILV PPFD hit 670 at highest and 550 at lowest. Stayed with 5 minutes of UV light and monitored burnt tips from previous days... no spread, so I may add 5 more minutes tomorrow and monitor. 15 minutes of IR before/after main light schedule. Growth continues, another inch in stretch to 19 inches. I turned her slightly because there are still two runted colas that I rather provide more light to. It's been 3 days since last feed and I think with as much growth as she's putting on, I should feed again tomorrow. Im still introducing nutes in lower portions but will add 300ppm and feed about 2 gallons at a 25/75 ratio of veg:bloom mix to see if I can get some run off to measure conditions. Day 74/4 Watered with 2 gallons of 6.4 ph de-chlorinated tap water. I added 300ppm total of 25% Veg/75% Bloom. Starting ppm was 296; ending was 595 and I added a pinch of epsom salt. Poured over the whole base until I got runoff - Since I was so close to the whole 2 gallons, I used it all. I only used the feed water over the roots today as I want her to get the nutes from the soil since the transfer into new soil was so recent. So far VPD is 75F/60%RH/40%ILV. No issues with controls. PPFD was upto 700 at center so I raised the lights to almost 42" from soil - Since the plant is almost 20" that's 22" leaves to light. New PPFD now ranges at 480 to 650 on 70% power. I increased UV time to 10minutes today and took control pics for light burn. I am still using 15 IR before and after main lights. Took some black back picks since I think she's looking good now. Day 75/5 Started the day with evaluation of ph and control pics. Comparisons show no further spread of lock out issues from earlier or light burn of a more recent change. Upto 20 inches before HST/LST today. Meter was tested/calibrated and soil ph was tested 4 times for avg of 6.34 (yesterday's runoff was about 6.35 too) Soil temp is about 66F. Also tested CO2 and got 1050. Room VPD was 74F/60%RH/30%ILV I spread the leaves further apart because I noticed there were two colas not getting as much light and somewhat crowded by the colas near by. So I positioned the larger part of the tomato ring around the limbs extending here out to 32x32 and the used HST/LST to break and bend the center colas inward clockwise (I think I went a bit too hard on one as the others already show a bounce back and now one is still limp-ish (will monitor obviously) But with that the height is now 18" so 32x32x18 - but here's the kicker, I only have a 24x48 tent, so there's a few colas touching the walls and doorway now, so I may have to reconsider the larger ring. New position, new PPFD right?, not exactly, for some reason these settings still gave me range of 480 to 650 as I had yesterday with just a few more of the outer colas have 480 than yesterday. However, there's more light getting lower levels now and I only had to cut 1 leaf. Which is good because I did 15 minutes of UV today with the regular 15 minutes of IR before and after main lights. Day 76/6 VPD is a lil wonky now as humidity is starting to go up in the tent - so I plan to put in the dehumidifier this weekend and just leaving the humidifier off today and tomorrow. Heat seems to also be ticking up - so I reduced the temp on the heater and will monitor. Temps about 75 to 76 - humidity at about 62% as high as 65 though and Im trying to be at or under 60 this week. Increased ILV to 40% I repositioned the fans to hang on the lights while blowing down onto the plant. I tried to make every leaf dance a little. LST seemed to hold up okay - had to reposition a few branches and thinking I may have to build a larger box this weekend since the colas are now pressing the door and back wall. PPFD is between 470 and 700. I used 15 minutes of UV mid day with 15 minutes (30 total) IR before and after main light timers.

Still having humidity issues it goes up to about 60 at night returned the last dehumidifier ordered another one I’m going try to place it outside the tent to see if that would work if not I’m going to try placing it inside and hang it in the tent. That’s kind of the only issues I’m having Amnesia haze #1 still having some type of issues but I’m going let it ride out I’ve gotten better with PHing the water got a better PH meter also the acinfinity self watering pots are dope I recommend if you’re want a easy automated grow filled them up yesterday Amnesia haze #2 is having a big stretch it seems a lil behind the other haze and she’s stretching as well and after the defoliation she grew more fan leaves I doubt I’ll defoliate her again

Hi all . Here we go again on some Fast buds auto genetics from one of the markets go to for autos. Having been a long term grower of fast buds and some of their tester fast flowering photoperiods too , I expect great things .lol My choices of strain came from hours of deliberating and looking through their extensive auto range. so tempting to hit the "classic" series and go with what I know but being ever curious , that was soon surpassed by some new kids on the block and here we have it. Their rise to the surface was only 3 days total for husks off and opening coty leaves. Now a week on from seeding , they are ready to get busy. They all look as they should and are at present in subdued lighting to get them rooted first. I will be moving them under their own light soon but want them to get comfortable in the soil mix first too. So day 1 is under way and we are in for some beautiful buds no doubt. Thank you Heather @Fastbuds . lets get this going now.

Beautiful plant, she had a very nice stretch during the last 2 weeks of flower, and she's now starting to get chunky, the flowers smell really good, very gassy smell and also citrussy, let's see how this lady keeps fating up those flowers!

Day 69 flowering: The Peyote Critical is dry and ready to trim for her harvest Tonight. She smells very fruit punchy and a sample bud nearly gave me a " whitey" as i overdid it with the dosage. lol. I have taken the Hulkberry out too for drying ( has her own diary) and also the RQS Critical( 60g dried bud). This made space to move the other ladies around and under the full working light. I took the Liberty haze out today at 69 Days from flower start ( not flip!). She was definitely ready to come out and her colours up close are so beautiful She is huge and has at least 30 decent bud sites. I struggled to get photos of her in such a small space so had to hang her just to get her all in a shot. Her colas are big too , hopefully she will topple my biggest yielded plant at over 10oz. The utopia has all been moved under the stronger bulb now so hopefully will finish this week better. They are very oily and smell of diesel oil and fruit. Not sure they will yield too much thanks to duff bulb but they look amazing and i cannot wait to try a bud of it. The Laughing buddha's are finishing up nicely now. Sadly the stunted one wont yield much at all but smells so pineapple. Her bug sis in growcaps soil is a monster like the liberty Haze so with only 1 week odd left. she is right under the 600w duff bulb close. Fingers crossed all will be done by next week and harvest reports can begin.

Great week, been flushing for 2 weeks. Really to harvest. Huge plants. Stong Lemon and candy smell. Care with the nutrients and make sure to use cal mag. I have some deficiency on the leave from strong nutrients and missing cal mag for a few feedings.
