Day 50 Update: Looking great, feels back on track! Definitely a few more weeks to go, but really about the healthiest the plant has seemed to me since before vacation. Monitor and water for now. Going to check some growing guides to see what I might need to do over the last few weeks. I'll check back in most days this week with a whole plant and main cola shot. Otherwise, not much to do but watch and enjoy! Day 51 Update: Pics added, probably just dechlorinated tap tomorrow. Might get one more dose of Big Bloom, but otherwise, I think my soil might be hot enough to just go with mostly just water the rest of the way. There's a few lingering yellow leaves of little concern but still feels as healthy as it has been overall. Day 52 Update: Water tonight with a small dose of Big Bloom (0-.5-.7), half of recommendation so 20 ml in 1 Gal. Video shows some yellowing on lower leaves, feels too early in flowering, but I don't know. Still seems healthy otherwise. Day 53 Update: Left the light off while I was at work, so lost a few hours of light. Maybe a good thing because it was hot today and the tent was 78 degrees with the lights off. Anyway, things under control now. Yellowing didn't seem to get any worse so I think maybe Tiger Bloom Friday and only once more after that, something like days 55 & 61, then just water until harvest. My guesstimate is around Groundhog Day (day 71), but I've been reading about when to harvest, so I'll let the plant tell me when it's ready. Day 54 Update: Yellowing spread a bit too much for my liking at the stage its at because I know the under-watering set its schedule back a bit. The other plants got their first Tiger Bloom tonight and while this plant didn't need water, it got a little bit of that as well. Not much, .5 L maybe. Next water is up in the air because of that now. Some really nice reds/purples are starting to show at the bud sites! I went through all my pictures of this plant earlier tonight. My LST was pretty sorry on this, so I kind of really did just let this plant grow as it does. My other grow is still benefiting so learning is happening. Day 55 Update: Just a couple new pictures. Water Sunday probably on Day 57. Not much else to say. Day 56 Update: I will check if she needs water later tonight. The yellowing continues to spread, but a couple are going yellow to a red-purple hue so might be somewhat normal. Looking to other PPA diaries to see what weeks 8-10 might entail.

Such amzing strain bred by seed junky (animal cookies x kush mints 11 )

The plants are growing at a good rate now and drinking a litre each per day. I feed them by hand and each plant gets 2litres every other day. Didn't do anything else this week other than install the trellis on the last day. This plant is at the back of the timelapse video.

Day 51 20/08/24 Tuesday Feed today using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6. With Plagron PK13-14 and power buds. Noticing the stretch stop, and now packing out there bud sites 💪💚 ACOP , Melonade Runtz have Xmas tree structure where as orange bud is pure tall sativa structure... The Overdose is a compact indica looking dwarf but the bud sites are packing out a punch 👊🤣 Day 54 23/08/24 Friday Watering only today using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6, I'm watering in 350ml no run off. 400ml I'm seeing tiny run off. Day 56 25/08/24 Sunday Water today using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6. Added bud candy and rhino skin 1ml per litre

Hi, topman! In my opinion, this would be an important performance! The roots of the second plant replace the first plant in the root ecosystem! I have not seen such experiments! And I think this method will be used next time by other growers! For comparison, there are ordinary processes! Follow the process and be one of the first to witness the AUTO stimulations Revolution! Now the left one is 15 days old, and the right one is 31 days old from moving under the light!

Week 13! I have decided to stagnant harverst her in two parts as there is fresh growth in her lower half that the light cannot reach and the top buds are mature now and at the optimal cloudy trichomes I'm looking for are present. Look at all those trichomes heavy leaf and buds! She is heavy and smelling amazing with hints of fruit and cookies. I will also be flushing her next week! What an amazing journey, coming to an end!

week three flower everything looks fine so far :D eight days after defoliation I water them with 1.5l every 48h the light I use was set to 80% and it hangs 80cm away from the tops

Everything is going great! On the 48th day of vegetation, we switched the light cycle to 12/12, and for the second week now, our beautiful Golden Sands - 1 has started flowering. She’s been growing rapidly and noticeably increasing in height. We continue to feed her with fertilizers from Xpert Nutrients, and the results are impressive. A huge thank you to Xpert Nutrients for their high-quality fertilizer, which is not only effective but also very easy to use. With such a reliable product, we’re confident that everything will turn out perfectly!

Nicely growing along. Working toward 16 colas on the more established plant. The small was topped and then this weekend started to train its 4 off shoots. Decided to trim after the second node as the others seems to stretch further than I would have liked, however the older IX plant is really not stretchy at all - so well see how it turns out. The smaller one needs alternative training in order to move the second node from an up/down growth to a side to side. Lots of training - noticing that the ground cover is a bit too aggressive and getting in the way of light distribution so having to trim that back quite a bit. Also its making it hard for the training ties to stay in the ground. Weekly nutes continue with same mix above.

This week I removed a couple of side branches and did a little defoliation. Annoyingly I noticed fungus gnats but not too bad and iv grown monstors with them before - they don’t seem to go for the buds and I’ll wash anyway. Iv started using the COB either 50w or 100w I can’t remember but I dimmed the Mars hydro one in compensation. Iv also turned off the water and will probably leave it off for a good few days until it may kill them? Who knows… I must admit I am tempted to just chop it now and start again but it’s actually nearly time for the first flower update as I added this one late. We are getting some stretch now. I pinched the top side branches and tucked one of the fan leaves to give more light to the side node at the bottom. I noticed the one on the side of the extra light was bigger so I turned the pot 180 degrees also. This was the first one iv not LST’d yet and tbh, at this stage I’m not sure why they tell you not to. Don’t think I’ll get as big of a yield from this than my smoothie but then I have a while to go yet.

Day 36 - I watered her again with nutrients ph to 5.8, i was advised to water less but everyday. I defoliated her today and she looks great. I took of a few shade leaves off as well to help light get through. Tightened a few branches and moved it in place for light. Im very worried because i think it got hermies on the plant which is a big issue. Day 37 - The main culprit looks fine didn't see any more i did take 2 pods of but I'm sure they weren't sacks but i was paranoid. Day 38 - very F***** up day today, I checked her and found a banana im not happy at all and to be honest i feel like all my plant have been contaminated so I'm just gonna carry on with grow and see how it goes. She watered with nutrients today at PH 5.9. I got new lights today spider farmer sf2000, this looks amazing inside there. Day 39 - The plant is okay temperature is to high in room its at 34°c waiting on inlet fan to come to cool temperature. I'm still curving the plant to get a spiral, i curved the top a little. Day 40 - I tightened the ties down properly. I have also watered the plant with 5.6PH and nutrients. Day 41 - So once again i didn't take a pictures today i will have make sure to not make it into a habit.  I was very busy and didn't have time. I checked the plants as soon as i woke up and they looked well and healthy. Day 42 - The plant looks okay haven't seen any bananas so should be okay. I watered her today with nutrients and the water Ph was at 5.5.

So the 3rd week started. I did realize that the plants started growing faster and on Sunday I did transform them to a bigger hydroponic pot. They were entering the vegetative stage. I know I should have not done it to the autoflowering so I should have planted it to the finisher pot but I did not know because it is my first time so I kept reading and receiving information. I stopped spraying the plants because I saw one yellow dot and I checked it can be toxicity or fungee so better not to play but still use it for the soil. I constantly raised up the quantity of the water so started adding 140 ml a day for two plants, 70ml 2 times morning, evening. So one plant receives 35 ml in the morning and the same amount in the evening, approximately 12 hours difference. I use two lamps 60W each with a dual head so (30W 2 times each plant.) The Gelato Cookie D'ohpe started smelling not strong but the smell was weak, only if you go closer or in the grow tent. I started also adding bat guano-acacia honey and water mix. (1-liter water 1 tablespoon bat guano, plus very good quality acacia honey mix 1 tablespoon). The Gelato Cookie D'ohpe also started growing faster, at the beginning it was growing slower but now, it has changed. I also set the light schedule 20 hours on and 4 hours off with two-timer. Ventilation started I use a small USB fan which is able to go 17 hours with a 5000mpah power bank so I bought 2 when one is off the second is used and the other is charged. Pretty much it works almost 24/0. I do fertilize on Monday, Wednesday, Friday with that bat guano mix giving the same amount of water like if it was normal. 140 ml a day (70ml morning, 70ml evening). Other days the same quantity of clean water. I never used tap water I buy still water from the shop.

Starting to put weight on, getting frosty. I have no idea what I am doing, but it seems to be working alright. Any comments, tips, suggestions would be helpful.

Nice pollen

Le Royal Gorilla 🦍 stanno proprio 😌 una meraviglia, avvicinandomi sento un adore floreale meraviglioso e già posso vedere il ghiaccio ❄️ sulle foglie da zucchero, non vedo l’ora di vederle alla fine della 9º settimana come saranno gonfie e gelide 🤞🌬️🚀✨mi piace tanto questa varietà, è la terza volta che la coltivo e sono rimasto sempre soddisfatto, a parte ovviamente gli errori da coltivatore 👨‍🌾 inesperto ma sicuramente quelle volte ho avuto la fortuna di trovare ottimi fenotipi…cerchiamo di tirare fuori il massimo da ognuna 🤩🙌🦍📸

2025-07-27 i started tis grow longer ago as you may see in other diaries, from the same period these ladies are mindblowing and deserve a Diary LEGEND The root idea for the strain name was the ​Father’s Choice to show respect to his father when he was testing his strain on his father’s farm. Finally, the strain got the name Chronic Ryder - the autoflowering version of the famous Chronic by Serious Seeds. Crossing with the Lowryder gave us the opportunity to get a stable and fast flowering hybrid. GROWING The compact and fast flowering variety grows well indoors and outdoors. A small height of 60 cm max allows for growing nice and fragrant bushes for 65 days from germination. Despite its compact size, the plants develop lots of sticky and big buds with a pretty apricot smell. The aroma is hardly noticed at first but it becomes stronger as the harvest approaches. The short growing period is another strong point of the strain. That's why this is a good choice for countries with short summers - despite the bad weather you’ll get your guaranteed yield. TASTE and EFFECT Chronic Ryder is all about the taste - fruity and citrus tones complement one another, giving an unforgettable aftertaste. The effect is mild and doesn’t hit you like a hammer - the perfect choice for novice smokers. Thanks to balanced high and stone effects Chronic Ryder is a good daytime smoke that stimulates you for a long time. CHARACTERISTICS Autoflowering: Yes Type: Feminized | Autoflowering Room: Indoor | Outdoor | Greenhouse Genotype: Hybrid Genetics: Chronic x Lowryder Finish time: 65-70 days from seed Indoor: Productivity: 400 g/m2 Height: 30 - 60 cm Outdoor: Productivity: 30-85 g/plant Height: 60 - 100 cm THC: High Flavour: Citrus | fruity | apricot Effect: Balanced high and stone | daytime | giggly

Literally she’s beautiful. I can’t even tell you how happy I am with how she turned out. The Rosin is crystal clear amber goodness. She tastes so creamy and sweet. The profile is just pure bliss. One of my all time favorite plants. Yields great. Dense as ever nugs. Tastes fabulous. Sweet seeds keep it up 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
