Beginning of week 8! Things are going well in the tent, new life is thriving and ladies are coming along nicely!

Looking good Haven’t had to do

Started the first top dressing of Gaia Green All Purpose and Power Bloom at a 50/50 ratio of 1tbsp/gal each.

I'm very happy with the results, I'm also about to add a dimmable sf1000 for more power. I'll soon introduce microvita topcrop to improve the soil. ==Update Sept. 25== I added a dimmable sf1000 in addition to the sf1000d, which I set to 80%. We'll see how the plants react. The 221 m3/h extractor is coming soon, adjustable. Temperatures are 27-29 degrees with 58-60% humidity. I currently have a 130 m3/h extractor.

Great weather this week. We did get a rain in the night of day 7 last week and morning day 1 this week. The girls weathered it well. Everything finished this week. The plants had their swells and the buds really filled out.

Soo, I think I can start to call it the first week of flower. #2 definitely is showing a few white pistols, #1 is just starting her first set and I'm pretty sure #3 will shoot them out any day! Also seems that removing the lowest two side branches of #1 was a huge success! She basically is the same hight as the others BUT I LST her a bit to expose the smallest side branches out of the three to more light! Also, I put a little elevation for her, so they stay the same high. #3 is doing #3 things and continues to grow rapidly. Topping her was the right move I think. I'm quite new to autoflowers (I mean pretty much in general but I had one random regular seed run before this but that's it) so I hope, I didn't call it too early but I'm positive:) Also my new microscope and the Blumat drip irrigation system finally arrived. I heard it can be a bit tricky to get it running but once it runs, it should run like a charm. Very very excited for this since I'm planning on going living soil in the future, which should fit very well together. Before installing the system, I removed the first set of true leaves of #1 and buried the wounds in soil. I hope she will build roots there. With #2 I took scissors and scratched up the main stem and filled it up with soil. As well I hope for more root growth. #3 just got a little bit more soil without any extras because of the topping. After doing all that, I watered with the BioEnhancer. I took 0,5g/l and around 1,5l in total. Quite a lot of update for just one day haha. Flowerpower baby! Didn't really have the time for further updates besides pictures. I did defoliate all 3 a little bit and keep fine tuning the Blumat. I think it's working quite well so far. #3 has some little spots looking different but nothing major I feel. I'm more worried about #2. Her tips start to yellow up a little. I hope it's because she grew too fast into the lights and now where I pulled lights back up to 35cm, she will be fine again

No fertilizer this week and probably next week, only tap water. Removed some of the leaves blocking flowers. The bruised banana stretches really strong and is really thirsty, the other 3 are still pretty compact

Flower kicked

Hello growers and tokers! 👋 👩‍🌾 🧑‍🌾.🔥💨 There has been much change this week!! First there was a big defoliation done, I cleaned the bottom of the plants. All the growth that wouldn't amount to anything because the light doesn't penetrate that low. Also took off the biggest fan leaves to give more light penetration. Then finally switched to 12/12.. After just 36 hours after the defoliation there wasn't much change Some new growth..the colas are stacking nicely which is good. Hope they stretch some more still.. I'm still watering every other day, After the defoliation I watered with only Enzymes 2ml/L to clean the roots a bit then started with the nutrientes again. I dropped the amount of grow nutrients from 3ml/L to 1ml/L and started adding bloom nutrientes 2ml/L for now. I'll slowly be upping the bloom nutrientes and after week 2 I'll no longer add grow nutrients. That's it for this week. Stay tuned to see how they flower. Stay safe!

I'm sorry I picked up too early but the botritis was taking over, I preferred an unfinished product than losing everything

The lil Big Bud is still growing really well😎. I started to add master grower massive bloom from hydropassion since day 45.(0.3gr/L). She really starts to smell good😊.

Predators Unleashed & First Frost ❄️🕷️ This week brought a few challenges—but also some exciting signs of progress! First off: spider mites tried to crash the party, but I wasn’t having it. 😤 I’ve been manually removing them every day, and today—finally—no new sightings. On top of that, I released a fresh squad of predatory mites, who are now keeping things in balance. Nature's tiny enforcers are on the case. 🕵️‍♂️🔬 I noticed some slightly yellowing lower leaves, so I trimmed them off. It could be a touch of nitrogen deficiency, so I slightly increased the BioBizz Grow dose during this week’s feeding. I’ll keep a close eye on it over the coming days. 🌿 Otherwise, she’s looking strong, vibrant, and full of life. Beautiful structure, steady growth, and she’s just starting to shift into bloom mode. I gave her the usual round of care: 💧 Weekly care routine: 🔸 BioBizz Grow, Bloom, TopMax, CalMag & Alg-a-Mic 🔸 Compost tea (homebrewed magic, as always) 🔸 Effective Microorganisms for a living soil boost 🔸 And this morning—a full feeding session to keep things on track ✨ Exciting signs of change: The first trichomes are starting to sparkle under the sun, and when I sit next to her, there’s already a faint, sweet scent in the air. She’s officially getting into bloom mode! 😍 Now that she’s out of the tent, she’s following the natural 16/8 rhythm—and since she was hormonally triggered into flower before leaving the tent, she’s holding that bloom energy steady outside. 🌞🌒 The vibes are good, the buds are on the way, and I couldn’t be more excited to see where this beauty goes next. Let the Red Hot journey continue! 🔥💚

Turns out, this girl is an AUTO!! Not a photo. Here we are at day 36! She's looking awesome! I've been doing a lot of LST on it trying to get as many tops as I can. I've even tried some minor HST and she's been bouncing back up quick. I'm having to tie down every day now. Day 21, I plan to defoliate and remove the smaller growth and let her rock out!

Hi guys, thanks for stopping by here.. Smell awesome for this two leady, not ultra resinous but very very sticky... I love the structure of the buds😍.. Now they are at day 54 from 12/12.. Only water.. The bigger one I think it's fine for harwest in the next five/seven days.. The "smallest" one in seven or more few days.. Can't wait to dry cure and smell the aroma come out from the jair ..and also vape too and get super stone😎🤣.. See you next week... Harwest day.. Bye ✌️ I hope you can see all three video because I can always see only the first one..

Esta es la última semana de crecimiento. Espero llegar a unos 30cm de altura para esta semana. He hecho varios cortes de bajos, defoliacion y super cropping. Se ven saludables y sigo esperando el estiramiento de la pequeña que quedó atrás. Iré actualizando. Día 25. Hoy hice una corte de hojas grande. Esta noche voy a aplicar EMRO foliar. Algunas plantas se van muy arriba. Pero dentro de todo vienen parejas. En unos días paso a floración. Probablemente ya la próxima semana sea naranja. Día 28. Último día de crecimiento. Esta noche cambio el depósito. Voy a tener que comprar otro, o ir rellenando a los 3 días del cambio, dado que estan tomando mucha solución. Algunas se estiraron más de lo esperado y la pequeña no alcanzó el tamaño deseado, pero no importa. Voy a ir aplicando LST para mantener una altura pareja. Las raíces crecieron muchísimo, pero por ahora es manejable el tema. Ahora llega la hora de la verdad.

Day 57 the plant has been growing healthy and fine but she is a slow grower . I know that most of the growers in this platform and elsewhere do defoliate and trim down all the lower branches of the plant so that the plant can concentrate all its energy into the higher bigger and better buds .and I do not do this because I drive the plants very hard with nutrients and those lower branches with small buds always give me the first sign of anything going wrong with her and that's why I leave them as a buffer zone to protect the bigger buds and that way I can push her as hard as I want. not much to mention about her thank you for reading I will continue to update have a happy grow

The Northern Light produced almost twice as much as White Widow. As they were in the same basin, I attribute the better performance to three factors. 1. Roots made it to basin faster. The WW's pellet dried out before her roots were in the water as the airstone shifted right under the NL. 2. The second and more powerful light was placed directly over the NL, however, the space is so small that they both should have benfited. 3. I did a better LST job on the NL. Overall, happy with the harvest. The buds are airy, my fault. The smell is very lemony with a bit of an earthy smell during the cure. Currently, the taste is minty and refreshing, but still a bit heavy. Effects are nice. Noticeable but not overwhelming or tiring. I think potency will come with age, But both plants tolerated my inexperience and have produced enough fruit to get me by. What else could you ask for out of a first grow?! Thanks to everyone that helped! Wish I found this community from the start.

Everything went well over vacation! The girls are doing okay overall. They needed bigger pots and it's starting to show overall. Another reason not to use autos cause I can't lollipop. But the watering process is going well. This Gorilla Cookie is my girl in this tent. She's doing well and hopefully starts to look better. I'm considering using synthetic nutrients in this grow to start giving for power.
