26.12.24: I have noticed light stress on my plants. I had moved the lights further away and increased the light intensity to 70%. Unfortunately that created some issues. Namely severe palour of the leaves. To try and rectify the situation, I've dimmed the lights to about 30%, staying at the same distance, about 30 inches away. I measured the par levels, after I did this. They should a reading of anywhere between 40 and 150, at the canopy of the plants. They are all different sizes. This seems to have improved the colouring on all plants. After this evenings watering, I will monitor recovery and increase lighting intensity again slowly. I am also using the light cycle of 21/3, so the plants have many hours more light to absorb, than for example 12/12 or 18/6. I am pleased with the progress, considering all of my mistakes! 29.12.24: So I finally gave LST a shot, it's probably a bit too late, however I really want to get the most of the triploid pheno, and I went a little crazy and LST'd all plants except 2, as they're too small. I did that late last night, this afternoon I was amazed to see the plants turn their leaves back to the light source. I'm glad I overcame my fear of trying it. I'm very excited to see them adapt and progress! 😁 there are videos above with before and after of my LST process. Thanks for checking out my diary 🍃 ✌️

EDIT: I thought the girls were done growing verticaly but i guess not. I measured at 51cm 2 times in a row. I just went to check and theyre 58 to 60cm and still going. (Day 37) Growth: This week vertical growth slowed down while the branches are catching up. I had a nitrogen deficiency on all the girls. I still go by the water,water,feed schedule and i usually have 2 dry days between every watering. So they only had 3 feedings of Terra Vega all this time. I think ill do water feed water now that flowering has begun. Lets hope these girls will put on some weight 😁 I added 1 100W cob and will be adding more the coming months. I also have a tent on the way. Training: I defoliated the 4 girls that are in flower and stopped applying LST. #5 (1 week behind) on the other hand got manhandled lol. I accidentally broke off the top and she got supercropped and bounces back within hours. Nutrients: 2ml Canna Terra Vega>>>1.5ml Canna Terra Vega 1ml Canna Terra Flores 2.5ml Cannazym 1x per week

Day 65 past nutrition problems I believe have slowed growth. unfortunately on a plant I think I have problems with the compaction of the soil which has caused too much irrigation. the plant does not eat and a little slower than the others. now after 4 days to dry i will give only datpo water which seems to burn for nutrients, i believe brought about by the fact that they are deposited in the soil. all in all they continue to grow and hope for the best! 💚🌱

These girls are looking great. I lowered the lights down right on them. Don't forget that the bottom half of there soil is 80% coco coir and 20% perlite... I am pretty much treating them like a coco grow at this point so they are getting nutrients every day. Buds are going to swell quick, bet they will double in size in the next week. I have a few rust spots on the leafs but that's normal for Incredible Bulk Autos in flower. I have added some Sensi Cal-Mag Extra to help and raised the ppm to 420-450. I had to bend the tall Sativa girl over because she grew too tall. She recovered without issues.

Greetings, fellow green enthusiasts! Week 3 unfolds like a crescendo in the cultivation symphony, and my Blackberry Auto is not merely growing – she's flourishing into a botanical masterpiece. Join me in this chapter of lush greenery, where every leaf tells a story of meticulous care and bountiful growth. A monumental shift occurred this week as I sensed the roots had embraced their space, and with that confidence, the AutoPot Aquavalve was turned on. It's a momentous occasion; from now on, my Blackberry Auto dictates her own hydration destiny. The Aquavalve ensures a precise, gravity-fed watering system, allowing the plant to drink at her leisure. It's a botanical utopia where hydration meets autonomy. As a gesture of extra love, I treated my thriving Blackberry Auto to a Nutrispray shower. While not a necessity, it's my way of pampering her with a nutrient-rich mist – a spa day for the botanical queen. Every droplet whispers, "You're cherished, and your journey is celebrated." The dance of low-stress training persists, a ballet where leaves are gently coaxed into the perfect formation. Blackberry Auto, the prima donna of this green theater, responds with unparalleled elegance. Each bend not only shapes her structure but also encourages a bushier, more productive plant. It's a dialogue of symbiosis, where I guide her growth, and she graciously accepts the choreography. Blackberry Auto's aesthetic prowess is on full display – her color is a vibrant tapestry, and her structure an architectural marvel. It's not merely a prediction; it's a prophecy of a beautiful, robust plant reaching towards the zenith of its potential. Each leaf is a stroke of nature's brush, creating a masterpiece before our very eyes. As I share this journey, I extend my heartfelt gratitude to the creators of the genetics – thank you, Fast Buds, for gifting us Blackberry Auto. To my sponsors who make this journey possible, your support is the fertilizer for this green endeavor. A tip of the hat to Grow Diaries for providing a platform to document and share the magic. And to the community, your camaraderie adds depth to this horticultural narrative. Together, we cultivate not just plants but a shared passion for the botanical world. Stay tuned, green comrades, for the forthcoming chapters of Blackberry Auto's odyssey. The journey continues, and each leaf unfurls a new verse in the poetic saga of cultivation. Genetics Blackberry Auto @Fast_Buds Food - @aptusholland @aptus_world As always thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all , this journey of mine wold just not be the same without you guys, the love and support is very much appreciated and i fell honored and blessed with you all in my life

good plants for hydro grows they dont stretch too much, buds need support because of the weight at the end. i run in a little calmag issue because i went overboard with the bloombooster around week 5. this caused a lockout top leaves got effected by this other then that i had a huge yield.
