This week the plant, I think, has gone into lockout mode. Therefore I have flushed all nutrients, the pH was 6.5. Since then, I think everything has improved slightly. The leaves aren't turning crispy no more but yellow leaf is a concern and is spreading. I am thinking of giving it a nitrogen boost to help it.

Day 17F-24F (Day 19) Man it’s such a shame that bbb#1 stunted out. It was so damn vigorous until it’s most recent feeding. I will make sure to cut back on teas next round as they can be a wild card sometimes. All 5 plants are packing on some serious early frost. But I’m not seeing too much chunk to the buds yet. My other grow that was flipped on the same day has almost no frost yet so that’s a good sign. (Day 21) Big strip today. I will pull off as many leaves as I need to ensure nearly all bud sites are exposed to adequate light. I’m still seeing excess N so I’m going to water in 2 gallons each until I get some runoff. The plants seem to be up taking water pretty decently so I’m going to push it a little with a heavier watering. Wow do the plants look amazing after that strip and flush! Everything is praying up beautifully, including #3 in the back. Let’s hope that gets it back on track now. (Day 22) I want to give a PK boost but all my bloom nutrients have way too much N and I don’t really want to risk it toxing anymore. I could give it a little bit of 0-18-0 bat guano and some 0-0-15 kelp extract but it could be completely unnecessary. I can’t see any signs of deficiencies but a small surplus couldn’t hurt either. (Day 23) I like how the ladies responded to the thorough watering. I will up my watering to 1 gallon every 48 hours from now on. It sucks to see how short bbb#1 is. I was expecting such a huge stretch but it never came because of that fucking tea! I should have leached the medium as soon as I saw stunting. It’s too bad because it definitely had the most potential for yield. (Day 24) I’m starting to think the main problem with bud size this round is all the topping I did early on. Not to mention they were vegging for nearly 3 months. I will try to pick off most of the larf before it wastes anymore energy. I think the ideal style of growing for bud size and veg time is a semi sea of green, or 6-8 plants per 25 square feet. I’m not a big fan of these giant plants as it’s a lot of wasted veg time and smaller bud size overall. The smell is really ramping up!

Hello everyone week 2 of flower has passed for this Skywalker haze auto 💥 Mars hydro SP-6500 75% have a great day and wish you all happy growing 😎👨‍🌾🏻

Blackcherry punch has come down and been trimmed. Will post harvest soon when completely dried. Jack Herer has come down. In the process of trimming her. Everyone else is flushing. The real work has begun......

These girls are getting flipped now! Last day of veg. Did low stress training with the ties to even out the canopy. I'm super excited to smell and taste these girls so want to fill this tent up pronto pronto pronto!

So this is a combination of weeks 11-12 as they all went into 48 hours of darkness and cut down on different days. My got cut down on different days. Will post dry harvest pics next ;p

Aug 22: Getting really close to harvest now. No amber trichomes yet though. Once I see the first amber trichomes appear, I'll give them a week or two.

Entering week 10 this girl is looking pretty! Smaller buds but great trichrome production, smells great, and looks like another good week. Harvest is close but still a good week or so to finish. I pollinated a branch of my other autoflower, but with this one I just did a couple small flower sites. All growing good Will leave then on to let the seeds finish if need be, will be close as this girl is finishing quicker then the other.

Empieza la 4a semana de crecimiento, parece que todo va bien. Los riegos seguiran siendo uno con nutrientes y el siguiente sera los restos del primero rebajados con agua , ya que preparo 8 l y no los gastan. Dia 25 crecimiento 400ml x planta Dia 26 crecimiento pulverizo con barrier y green explosion de top crop. Dia 27 crecimiento 400ml x planta Dia 29 crecimiento 400ml x planta

Die Ernte ist trotz der an den Schimmel verlorenen Buds mehr als ausreichend gewesen. Der Geruch in der letzten Woche war sehr intensiv gasig.

I am excited to try out this new gorilla cookies from fastbuds. I originally started this setup to compete in the solo cup challenge, but I needed something that will be minimal maintainence and doesn't require hand watering. So this is what I ended up with. I will not be entering since I know it will bring controversy, but I am going to follow the rules and treat this grow as if I am competing. I didn't want to use regular solo cups because last time I had a lot of algae growing in the root zone when I harvested. I opted to use a black light proof cup. These cups were 27 oz originally so I filled them with 16 oz of water, marked the level, then cut them down to 16 oz. I set the drain pipes about an inch from the bottom so they have a little reserve if I have pump or power issues. I know people will see the drains as a way for roots to grow out of the cup but in reality I have to keep the entire pipe free of roots or it will clog and overflow. So I am actually losing a little volume due to this. I filled the bottom inch or so of the cups with river gravel to stop the perlite from washing into the reservoir. I am running a 5 gallon reservoir with a small air pump and the plants will be getting irritated 24 hours a day from an aquarium power head pump. I set the system up to be totally self contained and easily portable. It was all built from things I had laying around other than 97¢ for the cups. I will be keeping the feed simple as always feeding maxigro and maxibloom with a couple flower boosters.

Well I'll say I didn't put as much time into it as I should have but it was quite or a pretty fair grow considering it's my first time growing anything.I've learnt alot and looking forward to my second grow

*english version below* HydroLab Germany – Woche 5: Transfer-Protokoll & Nährstoff-Experiment Willkommen zurück im Labor – hier, wo die Blasen nie aufhören und die Wurzeln das wahre Forschungsobjekt sind. 🌿⚗️ 🔬 Statusbericht Die Probandinnen sind offiziell umgezogen – hinein ins große RDWC-Hauptsystem. Dort warten jetzt 30-Liter-Hydroboxen und das leuchtend orange Scrog-Netz, bereit für die finale Wachstumsphase. Nach wochenlangem Formen, Toppen und horizontalem Zwangstraining steht jetzt ein gleichmäßig breiter, dichter Teppich aus Trieben – perfekt, um das Netz Stück für Stück zu füllen. ⚙️ Neues Experiment: Advanced Nutrients pH Perfect im Test Mit dem Umzug startet auch ein neuer Versuch: Das Nährstoffsystem wurde auf Advanced Nutrients Grow, Bloom & Micro umgestellt – plus B52 als biochemischen Stimmungsaufheller. Aktuell laufen 150 ml pro Komponente im Gesamtsystem, was einen vorsichtigen EC von 1,1 mS/cm ergibt. Der Plan: Erstmal beobachten, wie die Damen auf das neue Futter reagieren, bevor nachdosiert wird. Wenn das pH Perfect-System hält, was es verspricht, könnte das die Pflege im RDWC deutlich entspannen – konstantes pH-Level wäre ein echter Gamechanger. 🌱 Beobachtungen Die Pflanzen wachsen weiterhin flach und breit, genau nach Laborvorgabe. Der blaue Adlite-Zusatz zeigt Wirkung – internodale Abstände sind kürzer, der Wuchs kompakter. Die Wurzeln? Ein Traum in Weiß, vital und kräftig verzweigt. Und für die Skeptiker gibt’s noch ein Foto aus dem Archiv: Der letzte 30-Liter-Eurobox-Wurzelblock. Viele hielten die Kisten für überdimensioniert – bis sie sahen, dass das Volumen komplett durchwurzelt war. 💦 Forschung lacht zuletzt. Nächste Schritte Triebe weiter gleichmäßig ins Netz flechten, bis ca. 75 % der Fläche bedeckt sind. EC behutsam zwischen 1,1 – 1,2 stabil halten. In Kürze: Lollipopping & Defoliation – das große Entlaubungsprotokoll. 💡 Labornotiz Gute Forschung braucht kein Schulterklopfen – nur klare Daten, sauberes Wasser und ein stabiles Wurzelmilieu. HydroLab arbeitet nicht für Likes. HydroLab arbeitet für Erkenntnis. ------------------------------------------- HydroLab Germany – Week 5: Transfer Protocol & Nutrient Trial Welcome back to the lab — where the bubbles never stop, and the roots are our main research subject. 🌿⚗️ 🔬 Status Report The subjects have officially moved to their new habitat: the main RDWC system, equipped with 30L hydro pods and a bright orange Scrog grid ready for containment. After weeks of shaping, stretching, and topping, the plants have developed a wide, even canopy that’s perfect for the Scrog transition. ⚙️ New Experiment: Advanced Nutrients pH Perfect Trial The nutrient formula has been switched to the Advanced Nutrients trio (Grow, Bloom, Micro) — assisted by B52 as a metabolic booster. Each 30L pod received 150ml of each, which resulted in a conservative EC of 1.1 to start with. We’ll monitor pH stability and uptake closely over the next few days. If the pH Perfect tech performs as advertised, it could mark a turning point for long-term RDWC consistency. 🌱 Observations Plants show strong lateral growth and a balanced response to training. Internodal spacing remains tight, thanks to the addition of the blue Adlites. Root systems continue to impress — long, dense, and pure white. One photo even shows the final root mass from the last run — the infamous “Eurobox root brick.” People laughed at the 30L containers, but seeing how completely they filled proves the design worked exactly as intended. 💦 Next Steps Keep weaving the shoots into the Scrog grid until 70–80% coverage. Maintain EC around 1.1–1.2 while monitoring uptake rate. Prepare for the main defoliation and lollipopping session once the stretch phase begins. 💡 Lab Notes Sometimes, good science means ignoring bad opinions. HydroLab doesn’t build for approval — we build for data, roots, and perfect canopies. 🔖 Tags #HydroLab #RDWC #Scrog #AdvancedNutrients #PHPerfect #B52 #DIYhydro #CannaScience #LegalGrowGermany #GrowTech #LEDgrow #MarsHydro #ACInfinity #Bluelab #RootScience

First day went as expected. I put the paper towel in a small see-thru plastic container and put it on the table. With a bit of water and the seeds in side, the germination has now started! Day 2 no progression, moved the tray into my furnace room (pitch black and warm) Day 3 major progression. I got them out and started to prep the jiffy pellets. Shortly after I transferred the roughly half inch tarp roots with seeds into the jiffy pellets, root down, seed up, slightly covered with dirt. I soaked them in water (like a beginner i overwatered heavily knowing what I know now). I placed them back in the tray and put them at a window for light. (Note) the plan was to do outdoor so no light or tent was ordered at this point. Day 4-7 not much progression seeing as the clouds and rain showed up...

Little buds start showing up more and more everyday now, and the smell is incredible! Massachusetts has been experiencing some heat waves a lot with short intense thunderstorms with high winds yet these plants have continued to do what they do best and thrive. Plants have been given another round of Jobes organic granular feed with a 2-5-3 composition on NPK, and have started to restore their dark green color in new bud sites. I have been giving them heavy water due to the intense heat of 90-100 degrees, sometimes twice a day of around 3-5 gallons each watering which could result in slight flushing and more frequent feedings. I will have to wait and see, and watch how the ladies respond

On week 6, thought they were coming up to harvest but still keeps popping pistels.. probably another few weeks till they are finally done
