Decided to try this freebie seed I got from an order. Breeder is Prism Seeds, from Canada I believe. I will be growing this single Feminized Alien Technology plant alongside 3 other Ayahuasca Purple from Barney’s Farm to fill my RDWC setup/tent. Hopefully they jives well together in the same RDWC system when they go to the flowering tent. For now they are in there 3x4 veg tent in 3gal single DWC buckets. I have a 1200w(180w actual) king plus LED about 2.5 feet above them. The humidity was very low so I added a humidifier to the tent and was able to get it up to 50%. But with the seedling being directly over a bubbling bucket of water as long as I keep the rock wool moist she will be fine. Seed went into a glass of water overnight and directly into rock wool cubes and placed back in the dry cup and covered the top for about 24hrs until she came up to the surface. Then I dropped her into a DWC bucket/clay pebbles and put her under a 18/6 light schedule to come up. The next day we could see stem but she was still in her seed breaking free. Second day she was up but I had to remove the seed and skin very carefully to help her out as she was stuck a bit. Couple hours later she was up and out! Just gonna keep the rock wool moist and water the clay pebbles around it for the roots to explore. That’s it for this week, cheers! 💨

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.

Day 70- 2nd day of flush. Plant 1 is pretty much done, just waiting for trichs to amber up a bit. Plant 2 has a ways to go, but I’m flushing anyway. Wifey complained about the choking smell, but realized my in tent filter was off because a branch lifted the plug out of the socket 🙄🙄 Day 75 - past few days been feeding PK at 0.7 EC, waiting for the trichs to turn. Going back to plain water tonight. #2 plant has much larger buds, but is waaayyy behind #1 - still tons of white pistils.

6/24/24 the videos of trichomes is from both purple octane and rs 11 Also based on trichomes. I should've counted the last week of veg as a flower week. So she's closer than we 6/25 we have clear cloudy and purple. Leaning towards her going till the end of this week. 6/28 we have about 70-80% cloudy and 20-25% amber. she's ready to go. she will be chopped tomorrow morning. 6/29 unless stated otherwise. happy growing yall, this plant is a fucking badge of honor with how beautiful she 6/28 I lied and chopped her probably 30 mins after I posted that lmao.

At the end of week she is doing well. The stigmas are fully puffed and the bracts are swelling up. The Afghan #1 has ceased growing. All her energy is being used to flower plus her leaves are beginning to fade. She has a sweet and fruity aroma emanating from her. The Afghan #1 stands at 76cm ta

Yeah Lance is definetly recovering. Fascinating how this stunned him, and he and Frank are now so far apart, but same strain, same soil, same everything. Mr. Pipi will see how Lance turns out. I´m still hoping for good and quick recovery. First Pistils showed up on all the plants on Day 23. So in the next one or two Weeks Mr. Pipi expects the Flower to start. Endspurt Sportsfreunde. So as we can see in the Video Pedro is the tallest, and his overall structure is Mr. Pipis favorite, for now. Not so bushy as the Bloody Skunks but we´ll have to see what the Stretch says. The opportunity was given to tie Pedro´s main stem down. So Mr. Pipis canope stays around the same level. Initally I wanted to not manipulate them, but that´s what Mr. Pipi loves in growing. You watch´em and if you bond enough with your plants, you´ll know what to do. be in a symbiosis. But dont use Pipi on your plants.

Hello Growmies Hope you are doing well and everything is growing in the garden. I needed a social media detox. Was only busy posting which my ladies suffered from. So I only concentrated on my lady. But now I miss you all and I'm looking forward to admiring your grows again 💚 the Icc is almost finished, I'm very happy and I'm looking forward to telling you how delicious it is. Thank you very much 😁✌️💚

Hello Growers and Tokers! 👋 👩‍🌾 🧑‍🌾.🔥💨 Sorry for the delay on the weekly updates, had some things I had to attend but I'm back and at it! 21-day defoliation has come.. These pictures were taken on day 20 of flower Nice progress with these ladies, I honestly did expect them to stretch this much. They were pretty heavy on leaves so I did a bit of cleaning of big fan leaves and bottom useless growth.. I admit, went a bit too far with one of them. Should've left a few more fan leaves behind.. 😪😓 Other than that, things are looking good. Bud sites are more visible, sure hope they keep growing out. Stopped adding grow nutrients, only bloom now. That's it for this week hope you're enjoying this progress like I am. Have a good one! One love!

Pictures would be better if I took her out, but I’ll wait another week for some glamour shots. Just chugging along. 1-2 more weeks! Stacked colas
