Day 1 drying: Really nice strain! Easy to grow, medium dosage of nutrients. Smells amazing, I’m really curious how they will end up after the drying. Let’s see in some days. Drying day 7: finished and damn the terps are amazing! Smells and taste amazing. It reminds me of amnesia but in a mix with mimosa. Super special. I do really recommend trying this one out. But I would recommend using living soil over coco!

At this point, I gave away one CBD blue shark and one wedding cake seedling, leaving me with 2 each. Once the plants started to bounce back from being topped, I put them into 3 gallon bags. At this point I think they had finally gotten their bearings and were starting to grow steadily. I tried to make up for some of their initial stretch by removing some of the lower leaves and burying them deeper when I transplanted. I had my old 1000w HPS bulb in a UFO fixture that I had taken the reflectors off of to make it fit in the tent I built. I had the exhaust fan and carbon filter sitting on some cupboards outside the tent.

Quite week all around. She seems a little hungry, so stepped feeding up today and will do so going forward. Man, from my limited experience, Ethos plants can eat! Video/photos taken 47 days after breaking soil.

Blue Dream Auto 1 15th Feb Mon - Placed blue dream auto seed into jar of ph balanced water,and then kept in dark airing cupboard for 24hours. 16 Feb Tue - Set up grow tent today. Placed seed into soil and cut a quarter of a plastic bottle top and placed over planted seed to create moisture dome. If seedling hasn’t popped after 3 days turn light on to give more energy. Will leave now and check up on it in the next 24 hours 17th Feb. 17th Feb Wed - Checked on seedling today. No sprout as of yet,19:35, everything seems fine soil is moist and in the dome is moist. If there is any issues it would be the temp is lower than I’d like. 18th/19th Feb Thur - Fri - Still no sprout on Thursday 18th. Checked soil and it still a bit wet all around, I think I’ve planted the seed a little too deep. Noticed a few gnats. On day 19th Friday, there is still no sprout so to give it a bit of help I have turned the light on today. Noticed quite a few more gnats so I will try to put some white vinegar and fairy liquid in a bowl to place in tent. Will update over the weekend. 20th Feb Sat - Finally!!! The seed has finally sprouted, I won’t water this morning but I will check later tonight. Need to keep soil around plant moist but the outer bits of soil I’ll leave dry due to Gnats. Will leave moisture dome on for a day longer until I see leaves form. Very happy! Also repositioned light so it is directly above plant 21st Feb Sun - She is looking good! A lot of growth from yesterday to day gave some more water this morning as she was looking a bit dry. I’m looking to take the dome off tonight as she has started to come out. I’ve turned lamp off for 4 hours to give some rest. One leaf is curling over a little but I’m not too sure why? Will monitor and keep updated. Any advice appreciated!!

Day 14 flower: Hinall . hope we are still green and mean. This week has been an interesting one for both girls. Mimosa Lemon has stretch really well so far and inthinknhas slowed up now so I needed to work on her bushy appearance for light penetration and airflow. When digging into her, I found so much growth to decide onbi was shocked. The side branching was so productive and had tips everywhere. I took the small lower growth out to give her more energy for the mains to use and did notice the wide node lengths like a sativa grows. I will keep pulling her down so she doesn't get too tall and when I grow one in the future , I will train her very early and scrub up during that time. Glueberry has been a learning curve on watering. for the past week or so I have been assuming her ill health was over watering so held off a few feeds. seeing her worsen was a mystery but when I moved the pots around following harvesting one plant and felt how light she was. her position meant I had not been able to feel her weight before. After a drench watering and a few days , she is recovering great now thankfully. I am having a minor fungus gnat issue which I am in process of dealing with. it is shocking the amount on the sticky cards already yet I didnt notice more than a few flying around. horrible little beasts. Not a bad week now the issue is dealt with hopefully. Until next time growmies be safe and well

She's really starting to bush out. Still looking very healthy. GENETICS: -MSNL - Gorilla Glue Auto ~ my favorite strain, as you can tell by my username! WATER: -Condensed (Starting at 40ppm) -Disinfected prior to adding nutrients etc. (Using COOSPIDER UVC - 253nm & 187nm bulb) CLIMATE: - Ambient Air Temp = 27/28'C ~ 26/27'C LST ~ Leaf to air temp variance of between 1-2'C - Night Temp = 21/22'C ~ Day/Night temp differential 6-7'C - Under Canopy Temp: 26'C (Day) ~ 21'C (Night) - Relative Humidity = 50-60%RH (Avg. 55%RH) - VPD = 1.30kPa (Avg.) - Co2 ranges from 900ppm to 1500ppm (Avg. 1200ppm) AIR PRESSURE: - Ambient Air Pressure (outside tent) = up to 1010 mbars (101 Kilopascals) - Actual Air Pressure (inside tent) = up to 1005 mbars (100.5 Kilopascals) - Air Pressure Differential = up to 0.5 kPa range between inside & outside LIGHT: - Warm White 3000K/White 5000k/Far Red (660nm)/Infrared (730nm)/UV(260-400nm) - At plant canopy = PPFD 900-1000umols/s/m2 ~ Lux 45,000-55,000 ~ Daily Light Integral 55-65 - Under canopy lighting ~ Blue (460nm)/ Red (630nm) NUTRIENTS: - Mostly Advanced Nutrients (For base nutrients and most additives, as only company I could find scientific data on) - Canna (For Calmag Agent and Cannazym) - Plant Success (Great White Mycorrhizae) ADDITIONAL GROW TECHNIQUES: - Mostly getting out of the plants way and letting nature take its course. - Some LST. (i.e. tying down branches and tucking large leaves away) - No HST or Defoliation. INFECTION PREVENTION & CONTROL: Infection control practices i.e -PPE, Alcohol Hand wash -Gray room outside tent, -Carbon filter -HEPA filter -Plasma Ionizer -Inline UV-C germicidal bulb - Also using an additional higher powered COOSPIDER (UVC) 253nm & 187nm bulb, to disinfect the gray room outside of the tent once a week for 30 mins. - Ozone (o3) gas that is produced using the COOSPIDER, is then directed into the tent to further control any unwanted pathogens. - Ed Rosenthal (Zero Tolerance organic pesticide), sprayed once a week as preventative measure. On hand for heavier use (Once every 3 days before lights out for 15 days) in the case of an outbreak (No outbreaks yet, due to aforementioned preventative measures)

Was a great week for this girl, my other 3 x Ayahuasca Purples in the same RDWC system were showing slight nutrient burn and PPM was a bit high at the end of last week. I dropped the PPM down to 450ppm for the other plants but this girls seams to take whatever I give her. She’s starting to put on the bud now and everything’s been smooth sailing so far for this Alien Technology girl. I added a 2 x 1000w(180w actual) Morison LED’s to this tent as well, 1 directly above this girl angled into the tent. Figured I had them sitting doing nothing so I might as well get some extra light wavelengths my HPS doesn’t really push out. Temps on the canopy top are around 24c for her, and light meter shows about 55 DLI from the HPS when directly above her. I can’t measure what the HPS and LED combined are, but with the angled LED I am only seeing between 20-35 DLI from only the LED when the HPS is on the other side of the tent. So kind of an experiment to see if the added Lum’s and light spectrums help. Well that’s it for this week, end of week 4 and all is good. Cheers 💨

Growing well. Just fed 12 cups Ph'd water (6.3). Lots of cold humid air coming in from outside, plus with the half soil half coco mix I think they're holding water a long time. They're only needing water once a week right now. They were not impressed with the water-only feeding. Some leaves got burnt tips, some got small yellow dots that look like spores or insects but I don't think are either. I think it's some kind of nutrient or pH unhappiness. I only gave 2/3 of the amount of water I normally would, hoping that they will dry out soon and I can give a proper feeding and check runoff pH. I left them alone for a couple days and boosted the 1000w back up to 100% to dry things out a bit more. The buds loved it but I think it's damaging the leaves a bit. I put it back down to 75% just now. I forgot to adjust the intake fan from outside down to low overnight from medium during the day and leaf temp was down to 13.3c when I woke up. Can't be doing that either.

This week I only watered the plants as needed due to planting them in the Fox Farm Ocean Forest soil. From what I've been told and read I don't believe I "need" to feed them for at least 3-4 weeks but I will watch them closely. Some explosive growth this week! I'm super excited to see 2 of them take off. The third is quite a fighter! I won't give up on her if she won't quit! I'm already having to rethink how I will dry the first 2 plants as the third one will be at least a week, if not 2, behind... I think! I'd love to hear from those who have had an autoflower go through a hard first 3 weeks of sprouting! If you watch the time lapse videos it will help to zoom in a little more and you can see them dance pretty nicely! Here's to health and growth!! Cheers!!
