Day 49: The end is in sight. Not gonna be the biggest buds but they’re still swelling. Cut out the silica and calmag for now so just plain 6.4- 6.8 water. Day 54- straight water and molasses, trying to see if I can wake up these microbes to finish out the next couple weeks

Thursday 16th march day 59 Harvested a couple days earlier then planned as my humidity was getting a bit high and worried about risking mold I decided to chop, have to get a good dehumidifier soon, everything looking lovely, nice and dense with very strong fruity potent smell definitely the best looking plants I have grown to date not the biggest buds but they look quality, chopped plants whole gonna do my best to keep the temp and rh% in the dry room as close 60/60 as I can to get a nice slow dry, 🍁😎 I only took the wet weight from 1 plant back left plant was 270g with large fan leaves removed

Strain grew very easy, I mixed nutrients and dumped em in the hopper every few days and they did the rest. Very encouraging to be able to pull some very sticky and much thicker flowers than my first try. Very nice job Sweet Seeds with the Jack 47 Autos. The quality and smell is amazing, I am going to continue to cure, but after 8 days of drying and 9 days of curing I am very impressed.

i went on holiday and installed an automatic watering pump...seems like it didn't activate as planed...when i got back after 7 days the pots were compleatly dry... i removed alot of dead foliage from beneath...i would have removed it for better airflow soon anyways...so not much harm taken... after a big watering they looked fine again budgrowth didn't seem to be affected by the complete dryout...let's see where this goes...buds look perfectly fine so far

As altas temperaturas arruinaram a colheita, as plantas estão sem cheiro a WW#1 foi a mais resistente ao calor, ainda exala um aroma muito bom, porem as outras plantas sofreram mais, a C99xBB#1 perdeu totalmente o cheiro, e nasceram novos pistilos diminuindo a densidade das flores.

Currently on cruise control with these Purple Punch, doing a little bit of training to fill out the space better! They are growing quite fast, they are liking their new preamended coco home. Vegging for 2-3 more weeks till we flip to flowering! They are smelling like the powdered kool aid. Though these will taste better then the powdered kool aid, don’t know how i like that as a kid! Too much sugar for me now, but let’s see the SUGAR on these buds! End of the Week update: Got some booming growth and some spider mites... spraying with neem oil every 3 days. Moved middle F2 to a open spot in the tent so it can grow out more, they all started to cram up in the 3x1. Giving them their last veg ACT before flipping to flower! Which includes neem seed meal, bat guano, worm poop, uprising grow

Day 50 - is a jungle in here a. she is enormous, and still growing, branches are too long becoming too close to lighting... adjusting the lights to only 67% (201w) intensity to control the growth b. changed the DWC out to a fresh pool, raised the Cal mag to 1.5ml/L, 1000ppm she loves it Day 51 a. she is loving the higher PPM solution! b. the buds are expanding, and are very sticky c. the resin is now growing with new growth Day 52 a. gave her a 5L Cal-Mag only boost with stream water, ppms 850 and dropping b. this plant is so hungry Day 53 - monster plant a. she is growing still, so much veg! b. the buds are bigger and bigger everyday c. video upload Day 54 a. expanding everywhere still b. the smell is very nice!! c. she is still drinking 5-6 litres a day d. still using 201watts lighting, intensity only 67%. e. topped off with a fresh 5L spring water, PH 6.0 with PH down. f. ppms at 650 after the fresh water, will go back upward with next feed. g. major defoliation, 50+ fan leafs from the bottom of the plant and around the canopy. The stems are very solid, thanks Armor Si in veg. opens up many new sites for 201 watts of light. Day 55 a. growing well b. her buds are expanding every second Day 56 a. the flowers are smelling go good b. growing very well, keeping ppms under 1000 here

Apolo F1 Mission Diary - Week 3: The Ballet of Bend, Blossom, and Root Rhapsody Greetings, fellow cultivators and guardians of the green frontier! Week 3 of our Apolo F1's botanical saga has unfurled with a kaleidoscope of growth and a symphony of roots that dance beneath the surface. Join me as we explore the verdant ballet of bending, the flourishing foliage, and the hidden root rhapsody. This week has been a crescendo of controlled chaos, with the delicate art of bending taking center stage. Each branch gracefully sways and contorts, responding to the gentle nudges like a botanical ballerina in an intricate dance. Our Apolo F1 is not just growing; she's performing a choreography of resilience and elegance. And here's the thrilling revelation - roots! Yes, beneath the soil surface, a clandestine world is unfurling. Root tendrils are popping up like eager spectators in the front row, reaching out to absorb the nutrients and anchor our green virtuoso. It's a root rhapsody, a silent applause to the nutrient-rich symphony we've orchestrated. As I continue to guide the botanical ballet, the TDS in the watering regimen maintains a harmonious 390 ppm, providing our plant with a nutrient-rich libretto. The pH, the conductor of this aqueous symphony, remains a steady 6.0, ensuring optimal nutrient absorption and a thriving performance. Temperature-wise, our Apolo F1 revels in the cozy embrace of a 26-degree Celsius environment. It's like providing the ideal backstage conditions for our botanical star, ensuring she performs at her peak. Now, let's talk about the behind-the-scenes technique – the bottom feeding spectacle. Water is tossed into the plate, and our green companion sips from this botanical wellspring. It's a refined and controlled drinking session, a sophisticated soirée for our growing virtuoso. And as always, a tip of the hat to Aptus Holland, the maestros of our nutrient symphony. Their meticulous regimen ensures our Apolo F1 gets the VIP treatment from the roots to the tips of her flourishing foliage. As we marvel at the ongoing dance of growth and the flourishing of our green virtuoso, I extend my gratitude to the digital coliseum, Grow Diaries, for being the stage where our horticultural epic unfolds. And to Royal Queen Seeds, whose Apolo F1 has become the star of this green opera. In the next enthralling chapter of our Apolo F1 Mission Diary, we'll witness the continued ballet of growth and the root rhapsody beneath the surface. Until then, may your gardens flourish and your green endeavors be ever bountiful! As always thank you all for stopping by and for supporting me on this journey, i am super passion about growing and fell blessed to have you all with me on this new journey

Week was crazy, I needed to cut a plant that my wife found out (lucky me) was a hermie and thanks to the comments I think It was the best choice. I'm drying it and will be probably used for tea or cannabutter. One day I could't give em water so they went super down but rn they look aaawesome (check video) Since I starter growing one of them sooner it's showing nice buds, the rest mostly are starting to get fat ( it's an special greenman you can recognize them cause their leaves totally smaller then the cali kush I had sometimes 30 Celsius degree so one of them shows that some leaves are burnt I started adding 2x ml per liter to the water Smell its sweet and fruity I removed some dried leaves from the bottom Thanks for al help during the week and fast answers really Keep on growing, blessings SOG looks like shit XD but anyway plants look awesome (maybe some N is missing )

What a pleasure these Pinapple are to grow. I couldn't be happier with the way they are filling out the scrog net. My only question is how bushy is too bushy? I've had to trim out a serious amount of undergrowth and large central fan leaves. I think a combination of great genetics and the complete spectrum the 315s output is causing the canopy to be so so dense. I'm just hoping the buds fatten up too! I'm trying to leave them alone as much as possible and I'm no longer tucking them under the net. I'll leave them to recover from today's defoliation and do some more plucking next weekend. I've got a feeling this tent is going to look very different in 7 days time! Now on everyday watering. Keeping the EC below 2.0 and fluctuating PH from 5.7 to 6.1 throughout the week to uptake as many nutrients as possible. Mid week edit: Please check out my last 5 photos added at day 52. One of the 2 Pineapple Express I have in the tent is looking really tired and droopy. I cant seem to figure out what is causing it as the other Pinapple is happy and praying. I also have 2 Six Shooter and a Cream Cookies and both of those are happy and stacking on the bud. Temps are solid at 29 degrees light on and 21 dark. Feeding when required. They just look like they are lacking something. Some of the oldest fan leaves have brown rusty patches on them too. I've given each plant a Biosys Microbe tea today in place of a regular feed. Ive also emptied and scrubbed out my water tank and watering can. Hopefully that brings them round but any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Day 53, I've turned the blurple LED off in the centre and also reduced to 18/6 light cycle. They just look so lifeless. Almost like they are sick of the light. If she recovers I'll try turning the LED back on next week.

Trying to dial their veg in. Nutes may be too old or too high. Changed with 4ml CaMg per gallon of RO water. The rest is MaxiGrow. Ever since adding rockwool to the grow, I have struggled. I don't have the dry back timed right yet. I moved my fan to dry the top of the pot surface instead of in the root zone or at the canopy height. After about 10 days I dumped out the rockwool and have replaced with hydroton. My initial though on using rockwool was to give the roots more space during late life stages. My experience has been with hydroton and I notice that the roots eventually get bound because the hydroton is a durable material and will not crush or compact. Rockwool on the other hand will compress when squeezed so I was hoping that in the late life stages the roots would compress the rockwool and make more room in the pots. The issue was dryback. If I used chunks instead of croutons, this may help but the other reason I used them was because I had them here already. If anyone is trying to slow their dryback down, they should consider adding 10% volume of croutons to hold moisture in the medium a bit longer. Notice anything different? They are starting to adapt to their new media. Hopefully by next week I can get them to perk up. One plant has looked better than the other three. I have no idea what these plants need to “perk up”. Possibly a different grower. If a grape terpine wasn’t in the end results I would have culled these long ago. Hopefully they perk up when we get to flower. 3 look ,,,, meh, the fourth is descent. Trimmed all four back down to 12” tall. Flower next week.

Ending the first week and entering the 2nd week leaving my plants as I'm off to Mary Jane Berlin. I'll be absent for 9 days so I'm facing the challenges how to make sure they'll be okay when I'm back. As you can see I'm saying goodbye from perfect canopy with 9 plants as I've found 3 males that needed to be removed in order to prevent any polination during my absence. I'm eager to see what will happen when I'm back but for now I need to be in Berlin meeting some of you amazing people from the community. Hopefully the remaining 6 are females and they will wait for me in a good state. I'm leaving them in the worst possible moment as they are stretching, showing sex, and weather forecast is extremely hot. This makes my runs unique with all the challenges we are facing each time. Who said growing is stress free? 😂💚

All 3 plants are different, the one at the back is as big as the other two. One of the plants in the front is in a 9 liter airpot and developing quicker than the other two. Also the buds are looking a bit different, very white on the bluecheese in the back. This week I also started adding Acti-Vera and Bio-Heaven, hopefully they like it. Not noticing anything unusual and I am glad I have the extra 20 cm to grow in hight in the new tent. Day 46, switched to bigger lights SF-G3000, fits perfect in a 70x70 😇 Light at 60%, 40 CM from top.

7/28 Finally finished the first week now we can get busy :D Transplanting Bea this evening Hero may take a couple of days, all moved to big tent Transplanted Bea, gave kangaroots 10ml/g fish shit 2ml/g + nuets Lights on hours reduced due to heat to 16 Increasing nuets to next stage 7/30 Watching Hero to see when to transplant, may only be a One gallon pot not sure she wont stunt, 7/31 Decided to put Hero in a five gallon pot, let her be all she can be, t-plant this evening. Being forced to use Cal-Mag per the feeding schedule released by GH was hoping it would not be needed but yes can see the beginnings of def. Thats one strike on the new nuet line. Adding 1.5 ml/gal cal-mag on routine basis and not happy about it Hero transplanted everybody got Kangaroots 10ml/gal and Fish Shit 2ml/gal to celebrate! 8/2 From results we are seeing have decided to go back to the cocotek, this is ok but getting problems we just did not have with the other line.
