Hello Diary, Purple Lemonade has finished the first week of flowering, the flowers are forming nicely all over the plant and it has been 28 days since the beginning of the vegetation. Purple Lemonade has continued its rapid growth, this week it has grown 20 cm and is now slightly taller than 50 cm. The main cola has risen more dominantly above the other branches, it is forming nicely. The leaves are a healthy dark green color and do not show any signs that the plant is missing anything. Summer temperatures are slowly falling, nothing significant but every degree of lower temperature makes me happy. This week the average was 29 degrees and rarely exceeded. The humidity in the grow box is around 50% which is ok. Watering is a little more frequent, every three days, and sometimes every other day. I still add CalMg but this week I started adding BIO-BLOOM Fertilizer. I prepare 9 liters of water, add the listed nutrients and lower the p.H. to 6.0. I water all three plants on the Farm with this amount. A few days before the end of the week, I cleaned the bottom of the plant to allow better air flow and to make it easier for me to water. I also turned up the LED lights to 80% at the beginning of the week. Here's what the past week looked like. 15/08/2024 - Day 22. Watering. The soil was very dry and the leaves were slightly drooping. I watered each plant with 3 liters of water. I put 1ml/liter CalMg and 1.5 ml/liter Bio-Bloom Fertilizer in the water. 18/08/2024 - Day 25. Watering. Again the soil is very dry and the leaves are slightly drooping. I repeated the same procedure as three days earlier. 21/08/2024 - Day 28. Official end of the first week of flowering. After taking photos, I watered all three plants at the Farm. Purple Lemonade - Day 28. - 52 cm That's all I have for this week. See you soon and thank you all for your comments.

2nd week and I can tell one thing for sure. I'm really bad gardener 😬 Had to leave for 5 days and that was let's say suboptimal. Another proof that this strain is able to live with little to none attention. Changed the light hours to 20/4 to let them rest for at least a little time. Last big change was me finally finishing my controll system so even without me being present conditions were almost constant to preseted values (temp +/-0.2°C and humidity +/- 6%) Really happy with their grow so i hope it all be OK.

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.

after only 10 1/2 weeks, ready for harvesting 👌 they could have matured for another 1 or 2 weeks but I would like to have a high effect here as well, my insides ones will give me the stone. result for the 3 girls in 3 litre pots: 153g wet. Dry result in 10 days, and surely a first impatient smoke test 😏 Even if they didn't suffer from pest attacks, it was impossible to avoid the little ones and their eggs from sticking to the leaves and buds; I did a buds washing to get rid of them.

En la 6ta semana de vegetación hicimos una poda de bajos y desfoliación en general para potenciar el crecimiento de los brotes superiores, mejorando la iluminación y ventilación en el cultivo. También hicimos unos cuantos amarres (lst).

Currently checking daily and tying away branches/leaves to give the buds more light and watering when the soil is dry. Currently my plants drink exactly 1,5L a day. I have the feeling that the right plant is lacking a bit of potassium. I'll leave everything as it is for now because the left plant (fresh new soil) is growing well. Since the right plant is quite bushy anyway, I'll defoliate it again later and remove any lower shoots. I started adding the Bio PK booster towards the middle of the first week of flowering, 2ml per liter of water; as the pH value drops too much, I correct it upwards with Biobizz pH up - from pH 5.5 to 6.5 for 3L, I add a total of 39 drops. My water is mixed as follows: 3L osmosis water, plus 6ml CalMag, 6ml BioPK 5-8 and 39 drops of pH + BioBizz.

26.1.25: I have had a mistake 😕 i spilt some Fish Mix as I was experimenting with a syphon from some aquarium tubing I have. Unfortunately, I forgot to take the syphon out! Ugh 😣 However, it is fish emulsion and very thick consistency. Therefore, I was able to scrape it up with 2 of my business cards up off the counter. So added this extra into the next 2 ltr solution I mixed. All plants were watered with at least 1ltr of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.3. Containing the following nutrients;- ♡ 3ml Seachem Seaweed ♡ 4ml Biobizz Fish Mix ♡ 4ml Biobizz Bio-Grow ♡ 3ml Biobizz Bloom ♡ 2ml Xpert Nutrients Bloom Booster ♡ 2ml Xpert Nutrients Cal-Mag ♡ .25g Ecothrive Biosys. ♡ 2.5g of Bicarbonate of Soda as PH UP. Unfortunately I have broken my PH pen too. Accidentally submerged it under water, then the readings went crazy. I'm leaving it to dry by standing it up but I'm most likely going to need a new one, which is extremely annoying 😑 I'm going start implementing the Scrog net probably some point next week if I let the plants that are in flower to just grow up now, as I do believe that I stunted Watermelon 🍉 by using too strenuous LST. Hopefully the plants still are able to grow upwards at this stage during flower for all the Purple Punch P1, P2 and P3. We will soon see! 28.1.25: My PH pen has packed up 😣 I've got to wait to get another. It's super annoying 😑 so I'm just judging by memory how to regulate it. Unfortunately, that's my only choice! I'm also out of the dechlorinator 😕 things are not going very well this week so far 😅 I guess we will have to make do, until I can get replenished. 29.1.25: I removed all the plants, hoovered, and disinfected the tent. There were several accidents when watering, causing some debris and splashes. I decided to just go ahead and get a few other things done. It's crazy how quickly things can become neglected! 😣 So I defoliated moderately on all plants except Gorilla Cookies seedling. I have absolutely dropped the ball on my lighting situation! My light was much further away than I thought! I turned it up to 100% and dropped it down to just under 2 feet away. After I reset the tent, I set up my scrog net. I removed 80% of all LST pegs. I am planning on letting the scrog net take over the training from here. I really want to minimise the risk of mould, so I decided to start using my dehumidifier. It has raised up to 73% RH this week, so it's necessary. Hopefully, I will be able to get my dechlorinator and PH pen soon! That's kind of essential to me. It's been a little bit of a stressful day in the garden, to be honest 😅 30.1.25: So I am expecting the arrival of my new PH pen today, as well as my new bottle of Ecothrive neutralise. It is supposed to measure the TDS and EC in addition to the standard TEMP and PH, which I had previously. Obviously, time will tell if it's any good or not. I realise, much too late now, that my lighting is very insufficient for this many plants. I need double the watts at least, and coverage is very poor. I remembered I had an old LED floor lamp, which was in a corner being unused. I decided to take the stand off, and Zip tied the pole onto the tent pole at the back left corner. I have no idea what the wattage is, and it's quite pathetic 😅 but I mean, I might as well use it, being as I definitely cannot afford more lights! 😣 Next grow, I will probably only grow 2 plants, max 4, and just use larger 7-10 Gallon pots. Being as I ran out of dechlorinator, I only watered some plants properly because I only had enough to make 6 litres. When my pen arrives, I will get everything properly watered. 31.1.25: The leaves of several plants are showing signs of iron deficiency. This is likely due to my PH pen packing up earlier. I now have a new pen. Due to this, I decided to use my Seachem Prime, which I use for my aquariums. As I wanted to get them watered properly, and my Ecothrive Neutralise hasn't arrived yet. I watered each plant with 1ltr of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.0. I added .25g Ecothrive Biosys to the water. May give them a breather on the nutes and just use the Cal-Mag and Biosys. Being as I've just topped dressed with rich fertilisers, I'm sure that will be OK for the next several waterings. Bubble Kush

2024-05-17 And they are in Turbo- Mode. ( explosive grow) They were growing around 30 cm, i did some training on them. but you dont see it anymore, just the topping is to see you can watch them grow, literally i think next week we will see some flowers. and they will go outdoors ( probably) just waiting for the best time reeders Info: Fatso GMO F1 Auto, a feminized hybrid strain, emerges from the crossbreeding of two autoflowering varieties: Fatso Auto and Cotton Candy Auto. This California-derived cultivar leans slightly towards sativa, offering growers a straightforward cultivation experience coupled with impressive yields, robust THC levels, and a delightful palate featuring sweet, candy, and fuel undertones. Thriving both indoors and outdoors, Fatso GMO F1 Auto exhibits above-average resistance to mold, while still benefiting from adequate ventilation, particularly in environments with higher humidity levels. Its exceptional resistance to pests and pathogens ensures hassle-free cultivation. While indoor plants maintain a compact stature of around 100cm or less, outdoor specimens can stretch a bit taller, reaching heights of up to 130cm when grown in open ground. Completing its entire lifecycle within a maximum of 75 days from germination to harvest, Fatso GMO F1 Auto delivers yields considered average yet impressive for an autoflowering strain. The combination of high resin production and elevated terpene levels renders it an excellent choice for cannabis extract production. Its terpene profile presents a sweet and funky aroma with savory hints of Skunk complemented by pine and floral notes. On the palate, it delights with flavors reminiscent of sweet candy underscored by subtle fuel undertones. With THC levels reaching a high of 24% and minimal CBD content, Fatso GMO F1 Auto delivers a balanced and uplifting effect, appealing to enthusiasts seeking a satisfying and harmonious experience.

01/03/22 Watered plants 2L of nutrient water each , assessed plants to determine what LST I'm doing, looks like these plants have potential to be monsters. Let's hope I don't fuck it up now. 01/01/22 Topped and defoliation was done, didn't water that day even though they needed it I wanted to give them a day or two from the stress they went through, watching to make sure they didn't wilt. Its paying of not listening to my ocd mind thinking I need to do something everyday, I didn't even want to top them, but they where looking very kushy type of plant. And I have trellis going in later two tiers. 01/08/22 Did a full water threw tested run off , it's sitting 800ppm above what I'm feeding, next watering straight 6.0ph water. Lights at 💯%

Hey everyone! Week 7 is here (2nd of flower) and here's what happened this week! 😃 - Both of my girls look very different from each other. Many things could've lead to this! - The one that's on the "front" is developing faster, her leaves are darker in color and they look long and thinner (more Sativa in her DNA?). Besides that? Not so much besides this was a very, veeeery hot week compared to previous ones and that one of my girl is no longer showing Magnesium deficiency, which is amazing! I'm really impressed how things are going so next week I'll start adding some extra PK and see how things develop. I want some biiiiig buds! 😍 Anyway, that's all for now. See you all next week and enjoy the photos and videos!

That's a wrap. Long time in veg due to cold wet soil, but turned around for some decent buds. The White Gold plants could have gone for another week or longer, Papaya Bang Bang was getting past its peak so decided to take them all down today. Be back in a couple of weeks for weights after drying and trimming .

Die letzten Woche bleibt es nun mit dem Klima noch schwierig! Die Luftfeuchtigkeit und Temperatur im grünen Bereich zu halten mit sehr hohen Außentemperaturen….. der neue große externe Entfeuchter ist in Betrieb genommen ….er macht seinen Job ! Der Externe Entfeuchter im Vorraum entfeuchtet jeden Tag zwischen 5-7 Liter! Diese Woche eine minimale Entlaubung gelaufen …. Diese Woche gab es nach dem fluchen mit canna flush keine Nährstoffe mehr ….ich habe die Pflanzen nochmal mit 40 l gespült….der ec im drain wurde danach gemessen …. Danach immer noch 1,1-1,2…. 3 Tage gewartet und noch mal mit 40 l gespült…. Danach dann ec 0,7 so bleibt es nun…. Den ph habe ich beim letzten flushen auf 7 gesetzt da die wurzeln nichts mehr transportieren sollen…. Der Herbst muss schnell her 😁( 1 mal als erstes geflusht mit Canna flush mit 15 l pro Pflanze) Die tricome sagen das alles fertig ist. Ich warte noch bis das Substrat ausgetrocknet ist und dann wird sofort geerntet .zum abreifen auf 70 % runter gefahren , Nebeneffekt ist, geringere Temperatur im Zelt und das ist gut… Tage der Keimungsphase = 4 Tage Tage in Wachstum = 52 Tage Tage in der Blüte = 68 Tage Gesamt = 124 Tage Wachstum h (in einer Woche)= 0 cm 2 mal in dieser Woche mit Purolyt Mischung 1:25 besprüht Lichtstärke: 75 % PPFD: ca. 800 umol Lichtabstand: 35 cm Std Tag/Nacht: 12/12 Temperatur Tag: ca. 25,5 Grad RLF Tag: 55% Temperatur Nacht: 21 Grad RLF Nacht: ca. 55 % VPD Wert: ca. 1,0 PH Wert Wasser/Düngelösung: 5,7 -7,0 EC Wert: 0,7-1,2 Ventilator Oszillation: Stufe 1 Befeuchter: Aus Entfeuchter: an Bewässerung: manuell alle 3 Tage geflusht Purolyt Besprühung: 2 mal Controlling: Grow Control Dünger: Canna Coco Licht: Pro Emit Vollspektrum Abluft: EC Carbon Active 750 m3

Had a little flush issue this week. Needed to leech the soil of any buildup from my soil grow. Plants are responding well. Large amounts of trichomes everywhere. Just hitting with the micro nutes and a few more tricks before we wrap up this grow. Running out of height in my closet these baby's are still stretching to the lights. Enjoying the grow and watchingy lady's do there thing.
