The last week of vegetative state. Some of those are pretty dense, they look like salad. Maybe adding a bit of blue to this 80 CRI LED is a good idea to get a bit more elongation. Work a lot on LST tonight. I'm trying to make some clone with a technique I've seen long time ago. I put the cube directly on the plant. I remove the skin surface of the branch before putting the rockwool cube around . All cube are wrap in plastic to avoid excessive drying. No hormones. I will wait one week before cutting those clone out of the plant( thats my dead line before flowering). They all receive 200ml of PH 6.5 water this morninig and 200 more this afternoon. Next watering in the morning tomorrow, Working on ESP32 wifi based co2 meter for controling co2 level in the next grow. =============== 2020-05-26 =============== Everybody receive 300ml of ajusted 6.5 water. Adjusting LST and adding some defoliation. Watering clone/cube with 5.5 ajusted water with blunt top a seringue. ========= 2020-05-27 ========= Trying to water 3X day the clone/cube with 5.5 ajusted water with blunt top a seringue Everybody have received 125ml in the morning. Worked on the low cost wifi Surge protector 6 space smartbar. 15AMP@120v https://mygeeni.com/products/geeni-gn-sw003-199-surge-smart-protector-white/ Found a way to get rig of the cheap stock firmware. Flash it with a alternative firmware(tasmota) using wifi/without any opening/soldering. Those are pettry nice , timer capable, you can remotly control and monitor them After setup you can acces the bar using the small web interface or via a MQTT server and home automation software. I've posted a image of the result for those 2 examples. So im thinking to turn this into a tutotial to help grower to acces flexible technology and software at resonable price. You can comment to signify your interest in this! =================== 05-29 ================== Everybody back on water until monday/switch to flowering. Added some tutor for the next stage. Moved the cam for top view I cleanup/defoliate the bottom of each plant.

1 Leaf is obviously 1 tough customer....but is he tough enough? Can he hang with the present level of toughness he possesses? Watch and find out! (apparently my plant thinks it's a dude) Defoliated pretty heavily toward the end of the week. partly to try to stunt growth a bit but also promote more growth once it kicks in. Got a log jam going in my flower tent and not sure what to do. May just designate 3 mothers then cram 3 in to flower in a few weeks when its opened up. This is what happens when you feel like you cant throw away anything that might be clone-able. I've gotten past it thankfully and learned a lesson in how to time things next time.

+ # Day 35: growing !!! Day 34: more light, more progress Day 33: 3L Water (mixed EC 4.8) + Nutrien = PH 5.8 Day 32: expanding !! Day 31: temps go down , Pantime feels happy !!! Day 30: Okay, it's staying small now, and it's growing at an angle, so something must have happened to the roots. Well, it'll be interesting to see what happens. Day 29: all fine . it grows . +

bubba cheese cake is growing will she is looking sweet in her natural state un topped or LST even going to flower early doesnt give me time enouph to get to harvesr hoping the deadline is for entering and not completing so i can compete in the contests without comming up short of harvesr wich is still close to 60 days yet.(crossing fingers). bubba cheese cake is an awsome strain to grow so far.

6/8 Haven't had to water yet (besides the two tens and I should've held off). It's an overcast day. Perfect for the plants. I've noticed more off shoots of 3 pronged leaves so a few plants will reveg but thats fine. I'm happy with how things are going thus far. These are certainly very resilient strains. I've done some SLIGHT LSTing. EDIT: IT'S BEEN A NICE DAY TODAY. A LITTLE OVERCAST BUT SUNNY AT TIMES. PERFECT WEATHER FOR THE GIRLS. THEY ARE LOVING IT OUT THERE! 6/9 And the girls are lookin' Fiiiiiine. In all seriousness everything is doing pretty good. Even that overwatered pink kush runt in the 10gal is coming out of its little funk. Some of my FIM's turned out amazing! With the reveg of some of these I'll definately have my hands full. Very grateful for smart pots and well draining soil! We've gotten some harsh rain but the girls all seem fine. It's the wind today that's a little worrisome. I may stop over later. I COULD put up tarps around the cage as wind blocks (and have before in the past) but it increases the humidity of an already extremely humid day. These girls are strong. I'm sure they'll be fine. I've found that the tarps typically hurt worse than they help. 6/10 56° at 9am. Shook the plants off. Medium wasn't soaked though. Luckily we had some wind. It's not raining now but it's going to have showers for half the day. Tomorrow is supposed to be in the 80's and sunshine so if that comes through things might workout alright. I still haven't had to water this year besides that one gallon on the tens. If I do something I'll update. I'm considering light stepping the two pink kush's in the 10's. I'll need to do more research. 6/11 BEAUTIFUL DAY! Windy too which helped dry the grow bags. Plants are growing at a rapid rate. I've yet to have to water. A few more days like this and I'll have too. It was in the 80's and is still 75 at 5:30. Bags still have heft to them and I can still feel moisture. They got tons of rain. I'll keep an eye on them. Thus far I'm pleasantly surprised (knock on wood). 6/12 Everything looked great this morning. It's a little overcast and 69° @ 8:45. I mixed water planning on watering but decided against it due to the weight I was feeling. My wife said it rained hard last night for a little while but the topsoil was dry. It did look disturbed though. Luke it got PELTED with rain. The medium looks dry but there is still some weight to the grow . I'll be back over later and I'll check things out. Overall plants have made a great transition even in this bi-polar weather extravaganza. EDIT: WENT BACK OVER AT NOON AND EVERYTHING WAS LOOKING WONDERFUL. ITS 80° AND SUNNY WITH A STRONG WIND. THAT'S WHY I FIGURED THE PLANTS WOULD NEED TO BE WATERED. APPARENTLY THOSE THUNDERSTOTMS WITH SHEET RAIN HAVE KEPT THEM WATERED. AS PREDICTED THE TWO 10GAL POTS AT THE FRONT OF THE CAGE WERE A LITTLE LIGHT AND THE TOPSOIL WAS REAL DRY. MY MK ULTRA IN THE 30GAL LOOKED LIKE IT COULD USE SOME WATER AS WELL AND I FINALLY GAVE SOME TO THE 10TH PLANET IN THE FRONT ROW. BOTH THOSE PLANTS WERE BIGGER THAN THE REST AT TRANSPLANT AND IN A SLIGHTLY LARGER CONTAINER. THE FRONT ROW SEEMS TO DRY OUT FASTER FOR SOME REASON. I HAD 3 GALLONS MIXED UP TO START WATERING BUT AFTER CHECKING EVERYTHING ELSE I DECIDED TO GIVE THE FRONT ROW (THE ONLY ONES THAT WERE LIGHTER) A LITTLE WATER. I USED TWO GALLONS FOCUSING ON THE KUSH'S IN THE 2 10'S. THIS WAS MY WAY OF MEETING IT IN THE MIDDLE. IVE LOOKED AT PREVIOUS DIARIES AND I THINK I MADE THE RIGHT DECISION. NO RAIN IN THE FORECAST FOR A WHILE. I NEED TO REMIND MYSELF THAT PLANTS THIS SIZE USE MUCH LESS WATER THAN WHEN THE BAG IS ALL ROOTS. 6/13 It's windy as hell! I would've thought that the bags would be dried out by now! I went around and it seemed like they still had weight. It was also cold last night and is 63° and sunny at 11am. It's not getting any hotter. I DID water the two plants in the back row as they seemed a LITTLE lighter than the others. I split a gallon between those two and didnt water the rest. I figured I'll let tje wind dry them out some more. I know what they feel like when they are totally dry. I don't want to get to that point but it's easier to fix than over watering. I'll update later today. EDIT: I FORGOT MY PHONE BUT I USED ANOTHER TO TAKE A VIDEO BYTCI CANT ADD IT. PLANTS STILL HAD SOME HEFT BUT WERE LIGHTER THAN EARLIER. I DECIDED TO WATER AFTER A PRETTY THOUROUGH ANALYSIS. I GAVE EACH PLANT A HALF GALLON EXCEPT THE 50GAL WHICH I ABSTAINED. WIND IS STILL HIGH. I even got on my laptop to try to add a video but it won't allow me to do it here EITHER. Come on grow diaries. Up your game. 6/14 GROW DIARIES STILL WONT ALLOW PICTURES OR VIDEOS. TRIED MY LAPTOP BUT STILL NO DICE. Weather has been sunny but in the 60's. I'm glad I watered. I can tell the plants liked it. Everything looks amazing 10th planet 2 in the second row is getting massive. I noticed something with the pink kush in the middle of the back.i originally FIMed it but I didn't think it took so I fimmed it again a little later on. Go8ng through the plants I found that there's a point that has like three tops on it but the thick stalk continues up and there are FOUR or FIVE more TOPS!!! I've never seen anything like this! I'm interested to see how this one turns out. Man I wanted to put some pictures up. Everything is doing so good. Maybe when I start a new week it will let me. I need to start low stress training and I need to put up trellises. Plants have also survived sustained high winds. EDIT: WENT OVER AT 5PM AND WATERED THE TWO TENS WITH A HALF GALLON EACH. THE OTHERS "LOOK" REALLY DRY BUT I ADDED MORE SOIL TO THE BAGS A COUPLE DAYS AFTER TRANSPLANT (A WHILE AGO. DONT KNOW IF THAT HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH IT. I ASSUME ITS THAT THE PLANTS HAVENT FULLY FILLED THE BAGS AND THUS TAKE LONGER TO DRY OUT. I PLAN TO CHECK WEATHER (NO RAIN UNLESS ITS CHANGED) AND WILL WATER EVERYTHING TOMORROW. STILL CANT ADD PHOTOS. PR9BABLY WONT BE ABLE TO START A NEWXWEEK EITHER TOMORROW. I HAVE A BUNCH OF GREAT PICS. OH AND IN ONE BAG I SAW WHAT LOOKED LIKE CORYLEDON LEAVES. I PULLED IT OUT AND IT WAS LIKE A TUBER. I DUG DOWN AT THE EDGE OF THE GROW BAGCWND WHETE THEY HAD BROKE SURFACE AND PULLED THEM OUT. ITS FUCKING BIRD SEED. I SAW THE BITCH THAT MOWS THE LAWN MOWING INTO MY CAGE. I'LL BE SPEAKING WITH HER. LUCKILY I KEEP A GOOD EYE ON KY PLANTS. PLANTS THAT WRRE SHOOTING OFF 3 PRONGED LEAVES SEEM TO BE REVERTING BACK. IF THERE WAS REVEG IT IS CERTAINLY NOT HURTIMG ANYTHING. CANT WAIT TO SHOW HOW THE GIRLS HAVE GROWN!

The first thing I have to say about this variety is amazing! Very healthy and powerful, it develops quickly and smells good, it surpasses my past cycles in its cultivar which were ultra haze and the current white bubba cycle. Two weeks have passed and I do not plan to fertilize for the properties and minerals contained in the soil, at the moment I think enough. Well, we are waiting for 3 weeks!

Grew well. Got some lovely fade and the buds are rock hard with a low leaf-calyx ratio. Tbh, I'm not a major fan. It's powerful. But, its a very very dank rozay scent. Overpowering so. Like, that's the only smell taste I can get. Again, the rating system isn't great. If it gets better taste wise I'll for sure make a comment.. don't get me wrong. It's nice, very nice. Just when put in comparison to the other 3 Original Sensible Seed grows, she falls short for me. Again lovely smoke. Just don't the taste I like. The Pink Rozay x Strawberry Banana Auto was lovely combo. But, this is just too much Rozay. It's banging of it. Actually smells like a very strong Rozay wine. More on that later and the high. Which is the reason its getting 9☆ which is still pretty high. Thanks to Mars-Hydro & Original Sensible Seeds for their products and trust, hopefully will get to test many more of your great products and to you my followers, viewers, ppl who stopped by, or dropped a like/comment much appreciation. Look forward to seen your grows Good Growing My Friends. Edit. Upon a 1.5 month cure. The bud is just amazing. Very dank, stands out from all my other grows. Love this lady. Gonna miss opening my bud jars and not getting a bang of Rozay.

Barney’s knocked it out of the park with this one. This is hands down the most beautiful, strong, resistant, heavy yielding plant that I had so far. The huge colas are made of rock hard, rainbow 🌈 cloured nugs covered in tons of trichomes. It’s hard to describe with words. Moreover she had no problems with mold, botrytis even though the humidity reached 75 % sometimes, because of the crazy humid summer and i was very worried for these enormous flower clusters. In addition to that I had at least 3 or 4 different phenos in 12 seeds but all of them spectacular in they own regard. I am keeping at least 3 of them for future grows. Highly, highly recommended. Cheers

12/25/2023-Germination Day 1 Merry X-mas 2023 I decided to start a run of SolFIre Gardens Hoodz Candyz S1. I am going to do a cup filled with RO water a touch of Hydrogen peroxide and let it sit for 24-48 hours until I see tap root then I am going to put it into a rapid rooter.. Tap root Down and put it about 1/4 of the say down the Rapid rooter. I made some modifications to my basket on this run.. I have taken a few Pods that I use for my cloning machine and decided that I am going to try and use them as sure plants, so that I can take my water right up to the bottom of the basket this time and see if these can make my planting more consistent.   12/26/2023-Germination Day 2 Tap root achieved Planting Commencing 12/27/2023-Germination Day 3 Misted the dome lightly misted the rapid rooter and added a little water to the bottom of the pan to encourage root growth to the pan. 12/28/2023-Germination Day 4 Ground Hogs day 12/29/2023- Germination Day 5 She is up, she has broken surface, I misted the root riot, and around the bottom of the tray to try and entice root growth down rapidly. 12/31/2023- Germination Day 6 Ground Hogs Day 1/1/2024-Germination Day 7 HAPPY NEW YEARS!!.. I did it I planned it out so my planting day would fall on New Years and it worked.. Yay!!! 1/2/2024- Germination Day 8 Since the roots are not to the water yet, I am pouring one cup of water lightly on the hydroton around the lady to try and encourage root growth down to the water.. 1/3/2024- Germination Day 9 Ground Hogs day, will continue until roots hit the water. 1/4/2024- Germination Day 10 Ground Hogs day, will continue until roots hit the water. I will just continue to top feed until roots are in the water.. Shouldn't be more than a few more days. 1/5/2024- Germination Day 11 Ground Hogs day, will continue until roots hit the water. I am going to change the water Sunday and kick off Week 1, I will just continue to top feed until roots are in the water.. Shouldn't be more than a few more days. 1/6/2024- Germination Day 12 Ground Hogs day, will continue until roots hit the water. I will just continue to top feed until roots are in the water.. Shouldn't be more than a few more days. 1/6/2024- Germination Day 13 Ground Hogs day, will continue until roots hit the water. 1/7/2024- Germination Day 14 Ground Hogs day, will continue until roots hit the water.

Seedsman Auto Sour Diesel Haze coming up!!!👍 I love the Sour Diesel strain so I'm really looking forward to this one. Also, the Seedsman Auto Lemon I just harvested was very impressive. I'm going to go lighter on the training from now on because I want to be done by end of May/early June. My grow is in the attic and its gets crazy hot there in the summer, even in VT. My Perpetual Harvest strategy…. Originally my plan was to start 2 seeds each month, but had some seeds from one breeder that did not germinate early in my rotation. Ultimately, this caused single seeds to pop and messed up my 2 at a time plans. But, that seemed to work out OK, because now I think starting one seed every 3 weeks is a better strategy. This should provide me with 4-5 plants at a time, instead of 6. However… Since I need to shut down over the summer because my tent is currently in the attic, I’m starting 2 seeds at at time for the last couple of rounds. Plants get fed once weekly on weekends. Seedlings get water only. Plants in vegetation get water and Recharge. Flowering plants get water, Recharge or Big Bloom (Fox Farm). Feeding is done using 2 gallon watering can. Any additional waterings during the week are given on an as needed basis per plant. I lift the plants to help determine which plants are more dry (lighter) and provide water any plants via water bottles and watering spikes. I give each pot a quarter turn every day in an effort to make sure the plants get equal lighting from all sides. I rotate the plant in place by turning the pot 90 degrees (I am not rearranging the layout of the plants in the tent on a daily basis). The soil is an ‘organic super soil’ I mixed myself using organic top soil, organic potting soil, organic compost, organic peat moss, organic perlite, organic vermiculite, lime, epsom salt, expanded clay pellets and Jobe’s organic fast start. I am also recycling my soil and water with Recharge when using recycled soil. For plant training I have tried a variety of things, but my plans now are to do LST bending only, no HST anymore. I may decide to go back to HST again in the future, but I’m curious to compare LST training only to see how that goes. Around 3 week I'll do a FIM cut/pinch once there are 4-5 nodes established. And some defoliation around the 3rd week of flowering. I have been doing HST bending and having good results, but think the HST may be causing the plants to take longer to harvest. I hope LST only will help increase harvests while getting me to harvest sooner. Setup: 1- Grow Tent 24”x48”x72” 2- Viparspectra 300W LED’s (1-V300 & 1-R300) 1- Hanging 100w CFL (26w actual) 1- Carbon Filter w/ 190cfm Fan & 4” ducts 1- 6” clip-on fan 1- 700w electric heater - oil filled radiator (in front of air intake behind tent)

Day 56 Adjusting the trellis, I broke a branch, right at the stem. It was under the main and not receiving much light anyway, so... Also did a deep defoliation on NYD3. Got rid of anything that won't produce keepers. Trying to finish strong (14 days left).💪🏾💪🏾 Day 58 One leaf on each plant was discolored. No major fade yet. Each have a distinct smell. #2 smells like old school refer. It gives a real nostalgic 80s vibe. #3 smells like pine and Bengal. Watered top and bottom, with just a bit of CalMag. Day 60 48oz of pH 6.8 water. 1 or 2 leaves showing small amount of yellow, but nothing resembling fade. The canopy is green green, like she can go another month. A few of the nugs are impressive, but could be better if I had defoliated better. 60% of the bud sites are small and roughly 40 to 50% dense (assuming 100% is rock hard). Water, tucking, and plucking for the remainder. Day 62 It's a 70 day strain and with 8 days to go, there is no fade. Frustrating since I am over cooking my other plant for the sake of these two. They haven't done anything in over a week. Maybe that last heavy defoliation stunted them. So sad. Buying a jewelers loop tomorrow to check trichomes. The only other thing that could be delaying the fade is that I top dressed them both with Terp Tea Bloom. Maybe that top per gallon is hot and takes more than 2 weeks to be used up. I'm going to flush it tonight. Not even sure I should care about pH because I want it locked out from nutrient uptake. They just shouldn't be this dark green at this stage.🙄☹️😕😤 Ok so I pulled off the trellis net and LST ties, defoliated some more, and flushed both with 1 gallon each of distilled water. Added a little 3% peroxide to NYD3. Day 63 I figured it out. I made compost tea for NYD#1 to address a suspected deficiency. I gave these two some of it, and they didn't need it. It was half way thru flower. I followed that by top dressing with the new nutes. Lesson learned. What's good for the goose is NOT good for the gander.
