Another freezing cold week !! Before having this plant, i thought that a plant would never survive with this temperatures... but this Afghan Kush proved im wrong, whats amazing because this plants strenght is remarkable, the buds i noticed, are not developing as fast as in September/October, basic grower logic but we are having between 8-14 ºC during the day and 2-5ºC at night.. Wider range of colours, i spot like Purple, Deep green, and even shades of Violet and blue, its incredible :D Last feedings, finished like in the middle of this week and the buds developement degree is telling me, its flush time ... Spotted a few white aphids, but only on the leaves, so not a problem.. Having in mind the temperatures they are not lasting so much hahaha its the good thing Last weeks of life, and i suppose she will be yellowing more during the next week. THe photos are progresive, so the first photos were taken at the beginning of the week and so ... Have a Nice Week Guys :D

Week 5 starts with recover from the previous FIMing. I'm surprised 😍 ------ Day 30: Found a better way to LST, the branches are growing much faster now :D Day 34: Sex clearly visible 😁 (female)

A little stretch, some defoliating and a couple of feeds, I did a mid week water of 4L 6PH. Scrog net in to assist in the training New ph pen and ec pen in the post 👌👍 Any advise or suggestions welcome!

Well, after 6 weeks of veg and 1 week of flower, things are looking great! Gave them an extra boost of both bloom and veg to get them into stretch and bloom formation. Next feeding will concentrate more on bloom. Lowered temperatures by 5 degrees all round. It's now 25°-27°C throughout the day and down to 23° at night. Hoping to lower the temperature to 18° during the last week to bring any colours out.

I will probably veg these an extra week or two before flipping them. Was going to make this the final week but I don’t think they’re quite there yet.

So Ugly Genetics, little plant that go in flowering at two weeks. 1/3 Seeds come out, GrowShop near home so bad quality articles. Microscopic root develop... do not use "eazy plug" as a seed's first pot... don't trasplant autoflowering strain. From 60 grams wet, 12 grams dry ...

she growth like a crazy girl, bud dry in a dark room for about 10 days and extractor ON, after cured in jar day by day Organic ferts are fantastic, it allow you to do some errors and don't leave bad flavour on plants

Starting eighth week of flowering.

Checkout my Instagram @smallbudz to see the Small budget grow setup for indoor use, low watt, low heat, low noise, step by step. 17/11/2019 - Pot feels light and the is bottom dry to the touch time to water, gave her 1,5l of water PH 6.2 with 0.5ml Grow, 1ml, Bloom and 0.5ml Max Biobizz reduced the dosage from last time, watered util some runoff appeared. 18/11/2019 - Mixed another batch of Alg-a-Mic 2ml per liter to spray on lights off PH 6.2

Any one know why my leafs are facing downwards

11/15 Week 2 and very happy For now feedings remain : In two cups PH 5.9 - .6ml each of CocoTek A&B and Fish Sh!t (for the metabolics) to generous runoff. No reason to change until transplant when I add the root juice Feeding daily may increase to twice daily when the EC meter gets in Monday as I have found some insight on coco from this: https://www.amazon.com/Coco-Cannabis-Growers-Dr-M-J-ebook/dp/B07G9LR4W2/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=coco+for+Cannabis%3A+A+Grower%E2%80%99s+Guide&qid=1573956241&s=digital-text&sr=1-1 Free Kindle book if you have Kindle Unlimited. 11/16 New Pic and Vid 11/18 Moved to veg tent and transplanted into 1 gal intermediate fabric pots. Looking good Almost forgot - Fed cocotek and kangaroots when transplanted at 5ml/gal and 10ml/gal respectively. Going to start increasing the concentration of the cocotek upwards and keeping an eye out for def 11/19 Feedings will be twice a day in these pots 5ml Cocotek A&B (well 10 total) 4ml Fish Sh!t (seem to like the stuff) / gal at 6.0 ish not going to get anal about it just careful Possibly add 3ml of CalMag should I see a wisp of reason to do so. Like what I am seeing so far Getting more Fastberry those were my last two seeds. Meter got in - TDS of the above feed is 575 with tap water being 210 giving a nuet level of 365 well within seedling and early veg limits, so plenty of room down the road. Will be working it up as I feel right but I am getting a water filter, not RO perhaps but it needs to come down. Heh wont be needing Si that's for sure

Just another week in veg. Nothing too special.

Great week! She quit growing finally and now she is fatting those buds. Going to get a huge yeild. Stay tuned. I'm posting a video of the rest of my babies so you guys and gals can see. All in closet. Bonus news - ILGM and Growers Choice Seeds are 110% the best. Every seed I have germinated blossomed from these 2 sellers. Great plants as you can see.

11/1 In the water - bottled 6.0 - under the eye of the vicious Woodstock on the heated seedling mat. 2 Green Crack going into 5 gallons of washed and buffered coco 60% and perlite 40% using cocotek A and B nuets No nuets of course 11/2 On the paper towel, all look cracked on quick inspection 11/3 Cracked no tails ... at all... getting nervous... hate this part 11/4 Still no tails, the two Fastberry have already sprouted and been planted. Nervous again lol 11/5 Still no tails, going to drop two more later though Ive no confidence in them at this point. update: Holding off dropping two more, getting some activity (not breathing easy yet) from the first two. Seems my last ditch effort of a 3% peroxide solution soaking the seeds MAY be working. Wait one more night 11/7 Planted to very very sad germs out of habit more than hope on em. H2O2 works just wasnt much more to be done on em. Dropped two more into the water from the second pack of seeds, maybe it matters. 11/9 Tails on both, planted in coco. Looks like that first set of seeds is ... questionable :) 11/12 Finally some green! One is up nothing from the others yet. At least I have a grow now :D 11/13 One is up fairly strong the other is up but not looking as well may be a problem here just watching and waiting. Calling this Day 1 , will name later if things go well 11/14 New pics, both up looks like I have a grow Ladies of SciFi... Meet Ripley and Tara Going to carefully poke around in those first two pots that didnt sprout. See If I can learn anything. Need to figure out how to prevent that kind of thing. 11/15 New Pic. They growing well now. Found on the two other pots the seeds never did anything after planting which is what I expected to be honest. Afraid that seed pack is a no-go Feeding mix - 2 cups at 5.9 of each, .6ml CocoTek A & B, Fish Sh!T to runoff until transplant 11/16 New Pic and Vid The GC is playing a game of catch-up with the Fastberry Feeding every day now will go to twice daily when large enough. 11/19 Day 6 Really liking the coco coir. two feedings a day at 5ml cocotek A&B and 4 ml Fish Sh!t / gal at 6.0 Meter got in - TDS of the above feed is 575 with tap water being 210 giving a nuet level of 365 well within seedling and early veg limits, so plenty of room down the road. Will be working it up as I feel right 11/20 End of week 1 ... heh finally :) Put a lot of thought and study into this and adjusted the feeding. This in response to some slight lightening at the leaf tips suggesting nuets too high. Water TDS 220 ( gonna have to get a filter soon) so subtracting that I have the solution at 230 ppm (@2.5ml/gal cocotek AB with 2ml Fishsh!t which has little impact on TDS ) PH to 6.1. 450 ppm without adjustment which was my real target here. Fertigating twice daily to 5% runoff, transplanting when roots start poking out. Gentlest way I can think of to try and catch these babies up a little.

👉👽11/17/19 - After two days of heavy defoliation, there were signs of a little stress. Mostly leaf dropping. Not much but, different than before. Gave a feeding of 2 cups of each solution. Solution #1 A+B Silica Blast Solution # 2 Terp Candy Bud Sweet Sens Cal Overdrive 11/19/2019 - I noticed a couple more white fly's tonight. I have used my UV/Ozone bulb tonight for 30 min two times. I also hung 2 more sticky pads. Lets see what happens. Had to hold my breath (because of the ozone) as I took the pics. 11/20/2019 - 2 cup feeding of each solution. Saw a couple flies but not as many. Going to run the UV/Ozone bulb again tonight. 11/22/2019 - 2 cup feeding of each solution. Flies seams to be dead. Ran the UV/Oz again for 30 min and this seems to bee a good time over several days to kill the little bugs. 11/24/2019 - Well, have one girl that got a little fucked up from the extreme defoliation and was a little dehydrated. She re bounded nicely after some tasty treats. I think she will be the one that just hangs on to harvest

11/17 Week 8 Man I will be glad when this grow is over, if making mistakes promotes learning well... Im a fricking PHD ... Ok progress on Maggie the yellow is limited to the very top as buds are building in particular those a couple inches from the top. Thinking another root drench is in order, cant hurt and letting her dry a bit as a prep. Looks like tomorrow Layla doing ok she exhibits far fewer problems but the same issue are present she is just a hell of plant along with the Runtz which she shares the tent. Thinking about the feeding tomorrow will decide what to do then. They have plenty of time to finish up, had some issues on germination on the grow following so looks like it may be delayed a week from the scheduled 2 weeks. Maggie may need it. 11/19 Have stumbled onto to something it seems. The further I move the lights out, they are now at twice the "ideal" placement of 14" at 28" and the yellowing is disappearing to a great extent. Problem with this of course is not enough light at bud sites not on the canopy which lets face it is most of your bud. It is absolutely something that makes the plants insanely susceptible to light burn. New one for me but maybe some of yall know so making a question of it. Pics at lights out only and I missed today so new pics later if I get back in time. Update : Defoliated and tightened training on all three to spread things out from the center and open up the light and air paths. Raising the lights is working just wish I knew why as lights are higher than crap with little room for more than a few more inches. Would drop the watts to 450 but need the heat to keep the grow room level as our temps here swing 40 degrees all the time. Something I learned with the help of a carbon filter. If things normalize will begin dropping lights to see what happens. 11/20 Setting the lights at 24" as I am not risking yield any further than that on Layla and the Runtz, Have the canopy as level as it can be with Brandy getting the least light being on a coco coir block (heh) for height, which she is responding well to since I opened up the plant and no longer worried over mold issues in that main bud. Have Layla on a milk crate to bring her into decent light as well as the Runtz. She is just a lovely thing building those white crystalline buds. Maggie has turned into a beast at least I know her root ball is huge from the growth above. Seriously defoliated her removing several small lower branches and leaves blocking light and air paths. Next feed will be continuing what seems to be working, Epsom salt and bloom nuets (no calmag with epsom salt) with a foliar feed after lights out which may well be with calmag. Foliar feeding today at lights out, one quart sprayer with 1ml CaliMagic and 0.5ml wetting agent un-PH warmed to 75 F before spraying (our tap water comes out at @50F so...), just trying to hit hard and effective * New Pics after foliar Update Folks its taken 8 weeks and a final piece of the puzzle provided by Grey_wolf resulted in a near full strength cal-mag foliar feeding and the last def bites the dust. See what happens from here but its the first time I have felt good about this grow since the bad time germing at week one. *big sigh of relief* Have a whole list of things I will never do again in soil more about that at harvest. Right now I need to work on why calcium is blocked at the roots but thats another day right now I just wanna look at em. 😁 11/22 Another foliar feed same as before just diluted 30% and all three got it today JIC Cannot find a pale leaf or top and hairs are standing up on the top buds for once and buds building nice on the lower ares the defs were cleared up first. Going to stop the foliars for a few days see what happens but will resume at first sign of need. Maggie has potential even after all this and we going to help her be all she can :D 11/22 Feeding day - Bio-Bloom 7ml - calmag 4ml - Recharge .5tsp / gal at 6.5PH to all three. No foliar today 11/23 The thickness of the hair growth on Layla is amazing! Will try and get pics at lights out of it if my crappy camera will catch it. Never seen anything like it, once again THIS this is what we intended by growing Stardawg :) Update: Pics and vid hope it comes through well enough as for the green in that tent and the dense hairs on Layla

Week three the girls are still growing strong. Still feeding them twice a week. New comer in the solo cup is a white cookie that I started in 12/12 lighting. Small experiment. Stay tuned

11/15 - Day 43 - I've changed the light schedule on the timer from 20/4 to 18/6. I will be heading out of town for 10 days on December 25th and so I'll need to harvest and hang to dry by the 24th at the latest. I've read in a few forums that decreasing the lights on/lights off ratio can speed flower maturation on auto-flowers. The other growers also mentioned that the decrease in light also reduces yields, but on such a tight timeline I'd trade total yield for more fully ripened buds any day of the week. Would certainly be interested if anybody has experience/knowledge that contradicts what I've read. Plants stretched another 2 inches in the last 24 hours putting them 22 inches from the light. I still have room to raise my light another 2 inches, but if these girls stretch more than 6 more inches they'll be < 18 inches from the light which I'm assuming would cause light burn based on the research i've done on this 600W ViparSpectra reflector series. Here's hoping they don't stretch more than 6 inches from here. 11/17 Day 45 - Haircut day. Left a few fan leaves on the shorter/lower shoots, but took almost everything else. Tallest tops had stretched another 4 inches in the past 48 hours, and were 18 inches from the light. I raised the light the final 2 inches I had available, which places it back to 20 inches from the tallest bud sites. Hopefully the haircut I gave the plants slows down the stretch, but either way it looks like I'll have to do a lot of retraining before I head out of town tomorrow for 5 days. 11/18 Day 46 - Fed nutes. Cal mag + advanced nutrients (micro, grow, bloom), and MKP. 4 Litres of water per plant. A lot of runoff in the saucers, but I'm out of town for the next 5 days so I'm leaving it to be absorbed throughout the week.

Gelato what a fucking beautiful plant she is becoming :)! Shit literally looks like some mephisto genetics frosty as fuck. Shit wish I had another tent I'll run the rest of my gelato seeds this shit is prob going be my fan favorite :) but fast buds still has plenty more for me to grow. Tbh every fast buds I grown I haven't been disappointed:). Looking to harvest this one in next 4 weeks or so so excited:)! Easily 4 zips calling it now ! :)
