These Photos/Videos Document 9 weeks 1 day, busy times for me so didn't get to upload as much, what led me here : i feed nutrients every watering (still)😊, defoliation on day 39-41 , removed most lower branches that weren't exposed to direct light (could have done more)😔 on day 53, lower bud sites were also removed (should have done more)😆

I'm thrilled to share another exciting update on my flourishing journey. We have now reached week 4 of the flowering phase, and I must say it has been an incredible period of growth and progress. The plants continue to stretch magnificently, and the onset of bud production has been truly remarkable. 🌿🌸🌱💪 As we progress through this crucial stage, I remain attentive to the well-being of my plants. They have developed a healthy thirst, consuming approximately 4 liters of water every 2 days. The pH level of the nutrient solution stands at a steady 6.11, ensuring optimal nutrient uptake. Furthermore, the TDS range between 1050 and 1150 provides the ideal nutrient balance. 💧⚖️📈 In light of the unfortunate hermaphroditism incident experienced by a fellow grower, I have been diligently checking my plants for any signs of similar issues. So far, I'm pleased to report that everything is progressing smoothly, and I haven't encountered any Bananas or seeds (it's hard to check the back sides). 🚫🍌🔍 That's it for this week! Happy growing, lads! 🌿🌱💚🌸

Checkout my Instagram @smallbudz to see the Small budget grow setup for indoor use, low watt, low heat, low noise, step by step. 08/11/2019 - Showing early flower development? 09/11/2019 - Gave her 0.500 ml plain water PH 6.5, she's starting to need more water and also due to 30c temps. She's also showing light green around the leafs maybe slight magnesium deficiency. 10/11/2019 - Yellow leafs showing up really fast so I 'flushed' the medium with 1l of 6.4 PH plain water, watered until some run off start to showing, change the watering plan again, now I only water when the pot feels light and dry at the bottom. 13/11/2019 - Pot was really light and dry at the bottom so I gave her 1.5l of water with 0,75ml of Grow, 1,5ml of Bloom and 0.75ml of Max BioBizz PH 6.5 until some runoff started to appear I think was too much again : also added a work-supplement led strip light. 14/11/2019 - Leaves looking pale raise the light to 45cm instead of the recommended by manufacture 25-40cm.

I’m surprised they weren’t affected by the power outages since I kept them in 48 hrs of darkness before returning to the regular light cycle. Had a small thrips disturbance as these were clones and I believe that was the original source *THEY JUST KEEP COMING BACK GRRR* Next go around seedlings only, low baked soil and proper sanitization of my tent. But as it stands I’m quite curious as to how much these buds will pack on since the light I have is “rated @1000w” but the power draw is considerably lower than that. Looking very good so I’m excited either way!!! Until next week growers

This is more of an equipment gathering project-first grow so I want to keep it simple and budget friendly, I ordered autos for my first grow but Oregon Elite Seeds sent a free gorilla Girl from Sweet Seeds. Super psyched for my first grow! Day1. Soaked seeds for 4 hours in bottled water, used paper towel method with 100% sprouts within 18 hours inside dark tent at 80 degrees (heater and air purifier) and 40% humidity. Hoping to plant directly into prepared soil (6.9 ph currently) in 24 hours. Day 2. Planted Critical OG Kush and Blackberry Autos 1/4 directly into 8 gallon cloth pots (these are the wrong pots-they are wax lined but the pandemic made getting the aeration pots unavailable-I may have to transfer later). Very lightly watered. i prepared my soil mix and had it acclamated to the grow room. I opened the air vents at each end of the grow room and set heat to 78, placed a bowl of water for humidity and started oscillating fan for airflow. Planted Gorilla Girl in a tupperware dish till i can get something more suitable. I really need another light but shipping just isn't working out. Day 4: 1 OG Critical was culled do to lack of progress. Gorilla Girl hs been repotted and looks fine. The Blackberry are much leggier than the others at this point. I'm watering just enough to get to the roots with bottled spring water. Day5 : the girls just woke up-posted pics. 1 light and 6 plants is not ideal. I'm not sure if I should put the strain that is naturally shorter under the light directly or focus on the tall ones getting enough light to not stretch. Comments appreciated. Day 6: Ligthts off after a 20 hour on cycle. I was concerned that my light insn't adequate spacially. I dropped it down to 15 inches above the seedling and got it tropical in the tent. I also used a 6500k 15 watt shop light for added light color and they enjoyed it, except for 1 had a bit of yellow. I will post photos when they wake up to see how they look after this light/heat/water boost for 20 hours. My Gorilla Girl is the only one that isn't above 2 inches. That one was planted deeper (1 inch instead of1/4th like the others. I did have some "seed helmets" so next time I will go a little over 1/4 inch deep. Qweeby's roots grew like a wad instead of down. I've had to readjust her placement twice because the roots act like they want to be on the surface. I'm excited to see them in 4 hours. I may cull one and start a different seed. The Blackberry Kush is stretchy which seems nice for a new grower like me. I am trying to limit the stretch so they match the Critical OG height but they are hearty toddlers. Day 7: Added a 3000w LED off ebay. I didn't account for the rise in heat but it only got up to 84. Raised it from 18" to 20" and got more air flowing through. One plant has a little yellowing from the inside of the main leaves (inside to out) but it's barely there so I'm going to check PH meter and easy watering since yesterday I did water more then I have thus far-so it could be a little root lock from too much water.

Started to fed her this watering. 1/2 tsp per gallon Floricro 1/2 tsp FloraGrow 1/4 tsp FloraBloom 1/2 tsp CalMag+ 2ml hydroguard She jumped up 3” in 1.5 days after feeding. She was wanting it bad lol

Final 2 weeks when the soil is dry i will pour finalpart trough it for a nice fade

Decided to transplant the ladys because they werde Not so happy in their small cups. Now they got plants of space in their new 55l pot🍋🍒🍦 Plant in back needs more nitrogen

So just finished week 8 and starting 9 (from sprout), i still see new white hairs and the buds although they are getting there i think still need 1-2 weeks at least whats your opinion ?

Orange Sherbet FF (Fastflowering) is a finely balanced hybrid that produces some of the tastiest orange-flavored weed out there, making it an excellent choice for top-notch extractions. With up to 26% THC, this citrus terps powerhouse matches its wonderful taste with potency, offering a long-lasting uplifting high that puts you in the right mindset to chill and have a good time. It’s the ideal strain for growers with all levels of experience, especially beginners looking to get their hands on low-maintenance yet highly productive photoperiod varieties that deliver in both quality and quantity as fast as possible and without extra effort. Bud Description This superfast feminized photoperiod strain grows light, almost neon-green colored buds with fat calyxes that get encrusted with trichomes by harvest time, giving them a fluffy, silvery-white appearance. Orange Sherbet FF flowers reek of a very distinct mix of citrus that can be described as a tangerine and orange smoothie with a very sharp and sour background that hypnotizes your nostrils as soon as you take the first whiff. Smoke Reports Despite its 26% THC, Orange Sherbet FF offers a joyful high that’s very calm and relaxing in nature. The effect starts as a slightly euphoric head rush that comes hand-in-hand with a relaxing body buzz, leaving you in a focused, peaceful, and overall happy state of mind. It’s the perfect everyday, all-day strain as its long-lasting high will always put you in the right mood without fail while getting rid of muscle pain, stress, and anxiety along the way.Plant Appearance This is a medium/tall-sized hybrid that grows up to 150cm and yields up to 650 g/m2 while developing that typical hybrid structure. Orange Sherbet FF grows fast and flowers faster, growing super dense buds with a distinctive mint-green color and a high bud-to-leaf ratio, making your trimming sessions a breeze. It’s a well-rounded variety that doesn’t need much maintenance and will thrive in almost every climate, rewarding growers of all levels with extremely resinous orange-tasting buds.

Veg week 2-3

Start flushing them! Love the colours ✨😍

Well, it's finally time for an update, right? And for a newbie like me this week has been quite eventful! 😲 After last week's "Helmet Head" (which I suppose was my fault for not burying the seed deep enough 😱) her leaves started to look twisty, Honestly don't know why that happened but my three hypothesis are: because that's just the way she is, because I didn't properly bury the seed or I made a mistake somewhere else. However I also think she looks pretty and this makes her look quite "special" 👍. In her 6-7th day after sprouting I noticed her leaves started to look even more twisty and she was about to outgrow her cup. I worried and decided that it was the right moment to transplant her. At first I didn't know "how" to do it and all I knew is that I could shock her if I did it wrong (which worried me haha 😨). None of the sites I checked really specified any kind of information regarding how I should prepare the medium for the new plant (just some vague information here and there) so I came with the idea to just water it bit and then "massage" the soil to avoid making it "lumpy" and I feel it did work out well in the end! I feel I didn't shock her much and in her second day she was growing even more as well! Nice! 😍 Next week I'll start feeding Puff with some nutrients but the PPM of the tap water where I live is somewhat high (around 600) and it's electroconductivity is around 1200 us/cm but a lot of growers in here still use it (they just wait for chlorine to evaporate) so I'll try doing the same. I'll use half dose of Biobizz Bio Grow and half dose of another product called Gold Sunshine from Quemanta (which is Cal-Mag with some amino acids) and see how things develop! 😃 I'll try to see if I can make my DSLR take the photos for future timelapses, because my webcam sucks for that job! Thanks everyone for reading 😉

I did some techniques this week like defoliation and lst !!

Day 43. Girls are really nice, stretching, forming, growing ... A bit pale, but i always try not to overfeed during grows now. I don't know whats wrong with those Royal Cookies, they grow like shit. Last bean sits in pot without food for more than 5 weeks, still all mutated and a bit overwatered, despite all this Royal Gorilla clone is almost dieing from hunger and shows no signs of over/watering/feeding. Crap genetics 100%. One-two weeks and all Autos going in. Most girls are in preflower, but Whiteys are real fast runners, they are blooming already. Day 46. All autos in full bloom. RQS pot got heavy training. Food is changing. RQS pot and mini clones will stay till autumn in greenhouse. I will choose soon which plant to leave in each pot. Heavy training will start soon aswell. Day 47. Heavy training on RQS pot and feed to all. Autos gets bloom mix. Hope after so much time this Cookie won't go hermie. She still grows stressed and not normal. Happy growing !

***Sponsored Grow*** = Medic || https://medicgrow.com || Grow = ***Sponsored Grow*** This week was fun, realized I was giving my plants close to 60DLI vs 40DLI so I lowered the lights back down to 80% they should be within the range of 38-42DLI depending on specs, I lack a tools to monitor this in house so have to go off of specs and calculations I have from manufacture and other people who reviewed the lights online. main big one is 2.8 vs 2.2 effectivity on the diodes. Noted that the white dandruff coming out the runoff was indeed spring tails. looks like they have made a home in my medium and I don't care. must be eating all the dead shit. Still ph'ing my water up to combat the acidic whatever in the pots. maybe this is from the spring tails or bacteria in there. good thing is they eat mold and other nastiness in the soil. I do think I messed up quite a bit on this grow, I am hoping the next one will be better. First time using liquid feed vs dry soil amendments. This emerald triangle seeds plant is dong well it seems to loose its pistils asap and then just gets bulky, I did check for seeds and saw nothing or any nanners as my first guess was maybe its getting pollinated. growing progress. I keep getting different smells off of it depending on the day and the last time I watered. Will know its true profile when I can chop and cure. Guessing this will be about 2-4 weeks out. Till next week. ***Sponsored Grow*** Official Website: https://medicgrow.com/ + https://www.emeraldtriangleseeds.co.uk/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/medicgrowled + https://www.facebook.com/OriginalETS/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/medicgrow + https://twitter.com/emeraldseeds Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/medicgrow420/ + https://www.instagram.com/emeraldtriangleseeds/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNmiY4F9z94u-8eGj7R1CSQ Growdiaries: https://growdiaries.com/grower/medicgrowled https://growdiaries.com/grow-lights/medic-grow + https://growdiaries.com/grower/emeraldtriangleseeds https://growdiaries.com/seedbank/emerald-triangle-seeds

Veamos, cosas importantes en la semana. 1- Automaticas y sus caprichos. Te dan las indicaciones en los bancos semilleros que del día de germinación al día de cosecha, es X (pongamos 70 días) y pese a que sea un referente de la duración del ciclo, las automáticas por su genética ruderal, hacen la eclosión de floración y ya he tenido casi todo, empezando por grows que han hecho floración en el día 30 (en un ciclo previsto de 70) y en los 40 días finales, cosas tan increíbles como floración mínima a menos de 4 semanas de la previsión de cosecha y después, como que, literalmente "explotan" y forman cogollos impresionantes en 20 días. 2- Otras por su parte, son muy lineares en sus procesos y es incluso, como si pese a su genética ruderal, pudieran tener influencia de exposición luminosa (lo que no ocurre seguramente) y que pasa por los periodos puedan venir a ocurrir de modo muy seguro - un vegetativo para un ciclo total de 70 dias, por ejemplo, que tiene sus 30 días ciertos y después una floración que va hasta el final de ciclo con crecimiento muy firme y en linea al tiempo de duración - los primeros pistilos, después el desarrollo de pistilos y hojas para estructura de calixes y después, engorda de cogollos con resinas y terpenos- pero todo ocurriendo de modo muy proporcional y sin "tirones" de golpe como os dije por ejemplo, en el tópico anterior. 3- También ya he tenido algún que otro grow de automática, que casi no ha tenido expresión vegetativa y después mientras crecía la floración, se produjo también tirón vertical, casi como si el ciclo tuviera un vegetativo de principio a fin (y eso sin por ejemplo, agregarle en nutrición de floración, tan solo un mililitro de nitrógeno, en periodo supuestamente de floración). 4 - Conclusiones : Todavía para mí es complejo, entender la expresión fenotípica de las automáticas, pero para mí algo se vuelve sencillo de observar y concluir y que es la falta tremenda de estabilidad genética que muchas de las automáticas (incluso las de los bancos semilleros "estrella" y que se gastan millonadas en marketing de ventas) y eso pasa, por qué las reglas del juego para los bancos de semillas, es poner a cada medio año, fotos para venta de cogollos a quien les llamo "cogollos hamburguesería" pues en las fotos, los comes por colores y la gente también y de manera muy atontada se pone en grows de muchas de las automáticas que, hoy día venden lo que considero tasas de THC tóxicas, - para mi, una cepa con un THC del 16% y un buen entourage con otros canabinóides, es mejor y más segura para la salud, que cosas que por ahí se "regalan" con tasas de THC muy por encima del 30% y a mí siempre me gustó que el humo, me sea placentero y que pueda desarrollar actividad, en vez de quedarme tumbado y en paranoia delirante. 4 - En los más técnico...semana de defoliación y defoliación muy a critério pues era muy notorio que por las reducidas dimensiones del área de los grows automáticos , en las partes inferiores había una cantidad muy significativa de los que se designan "ramas vampiras" y de hojas fan que en estos momentos no más que eran limitantes a los aportes de oxígeno/dióxido carbónico y concentración de humedad en el limite físico del sustrato con la atmosfera. A los que están empezando siempre daros la información que solo hay que crear condiciones para que el tercio superior de las ramas pueda al final, convertirse en espacio de floración. Los tercios inferiores de los grows, deben pues estar limpios de ramas finas que no cogen luz ó hojas fan que por el mismo motivo solamente estorban y tienen implicaciones muy serias, en lo tocante a productividad final. Por lo cual, las "vampiras" hay que removerlas cuando las ramas donde estén insertas ya tengan grosor y resistencia para que las "vampiras" sean arrancadas sin por ejemplo haber secado de la rama. ESTE PROCEDIMIENTO EN INDOOR - RETIRADA DE RAMAS "VAMPIRAS" Y HOJAS FAN EN LIMITE BAJO DEL GROW- ES OBLIGATORIA CARA A OBTENER COGOLLOS DE GRAN CALIDAD Y TAMAÑO (y no confundir defoliación, con FIMming o con cortes apicales pues las automáticas en regla se resienten tremendamente y pueden incluso "cargarse" con maniobras que impliquen alto estrés). 5 - En lo más técnico y por qué no he sido aún muy específico en la forma de nutrición con los nutrientes/aportes de Top Crop: * De lo que podéis ver en la nutrición, cada uno de los nutrientes solo se usa una vez a la semana y hago en regla una tabla donde a cada día preparo según el grow la solución. Así y por ejemplo; Lunes - Agua 1L (agua limpia) Martes - Big One 2ml/L Miércoles - Top Candy 2ml/L Jueves - Água 1L (agua limpia) Viernes - Top Auto 3,5 ml/L Sábado -Agua 1L (agua limpia) Domingo - Agua 1L (agua limpia) Lo de Top Crop en linea del control, se basa muchísimo en las tasas de PH y si la recomendación son tasas del 5,8-6,2, la experiencia me ha enseñando que si, esos son los límites en vegetativo...pero en floración, yo mantengo el limite entre 6,4 -6,7 y para las automáticas, empezar con más de 6,2 y de empiezo de floración a fin de ciclo, el PH ideal es siempre más de 6,6 y nunca sobrepasando el 6,8. Mucha atención por qué cuando toque a darle: - cuatro veces en el total de ciclo de grow, el maravilloso Top Mass, por ser uno de los mejores aportes de silicio en el mercado y por su formulación que permite una absorción del silicio de manera muy efectiva - tres veces en todo el ciclo del Barrier (también silicio y aporte de aminoácidos y quelatos base y muy efectivo para prevención de estrés de todos los tipos y de agresiones de plagas (como siempre preparo suelo con mycorrizas, trichoderma y bacterias de recaptación atmosférica, no tengo memoria de alguna plaga que pueda haber tenido, desde que las mycorrizas y la trichoderma son puestos en el sustrato) - el CalMag, que por ele tipo de agua se incluye más o menos veces. En regla y en lo que llevo de ciclo, tanto en automáticas cuanto fotodependientes, solo he usado un par de veces. El CalMag cuando hagas uso de aguas blandas (con poca o ninguna mineralización); cuando trabajes sobre todo con coco o otros sustratos en esta linea y con tendencia a gran porosidad y poca retención ó y ahora os explico el por qué del uso esta semana, pues cuando por ejemplo, se hace una mayor inclusión de tasas de PK (fósforo y potasio), el magnesio y cálcio del CalMag, mejoran el rendimiento de la "bomba" de captación del PK y la integración de la mayor cantidad posible de estos dos, es la diferencia entre cogollos bellos, gordos y resinosos ó media docena "vellos" acurrucados. - Habéis visto a igual que incluso con los nutrientes de Top Crop y su inductor de floración que es el Top Bloom, para mí hay cosas que no cambió ni lo dejo a segundo plano y el Delta 9 de Cannabiogen es muchísimo más que tan solo un inductor de floración más. Es un producto de altísima calidad, con una de las más equilibradas composiciones alguna vez pensada y además una forma perfecta de compensar deficits, pues si formular de aminoácidos, de azúcares y de compensación de macro y micro elementos es inmejorable. A los que habéis ya trabajado y lo conocéis, sabéis cómo se usa y en floración plena, nada de daño vendrá, si en un periodo de un mes a cada diez dias por fertirrigación (en total tres veces) sacáis de riego con Delta 9, vuestros grows. 6 - A lo largo de la semana : Temp. Maxima (período luces encendidas) : de 23 a 26ºC Temp. Mínima (período luces desconectadas) : de 20 a 22ºC Variaciones Humedad Relativa : entre 68% y 89% Ratio CO2 ambiente : de 406 (min.) a 568 (max.) Y aquí tenéis lo más destacado de la semana...que el Dios Jah nos proteja siempre de todos los peligros -en grow y fuera de el- 420 siempre y por el derecho al cultivo de recreación sin amago de ganancias y la Cannabis como producto de sustentabilidad; uso médico y de recreación y uso positivo. Green Greets a todos los hermanos. Tom
