This was a fun little project with a few ups and downs. Overall it was a success. I managed to get 86 Seeds off of the two plants, this is a smaller number but given that I started the pollination about 2-3 weeks late I am impressed. Top this all off with the fact I was using 10ppm silver solution for the majority of the reversing process and only had 30ppm for about a single week near the end. Moving forward if I plan on reversing anymore plants I will be investing in some STS vs Silver solution. It's easier to use and has stronger results. I also managed to get 25g of bug from the plants as well that I will infuse into some butter. Not to worry these are not the branches that where sprayed with silver and they have been cut off and disposed of in the composter. When I decide to grow these out I'll try and create a new diary and test if the CBD/THC ratios remain intact, if the plants are viable. I have not tested the germination rate on these seeds and for all I know they are duds or will not resemble their back-crossed parents. This is my first seed making project and so much is new and unknown to me. Have had lots of help along the way from some good GD friends. Tried to post lots of photos and products I used. The photos labelled [PREVIOUS HARVEST] where when I first grew this wonderful strain out. It has the same peppery kush smell and crazy deep purples as it first did. I did shock these plants with a heavy feeding that stunted them greatly, I also transplanted them when I should have started them off in their forever pot. This was all explained in the weekly entries when it happened and why. overall the autos are not heavy yielding but more average for an auto and that's ok with me. Its the smells, taste colours and CBD contest that draw me to it. Somethings to note from the diary, most of the liquid nutrients are diving by how much water I gave them, typically 4L. Solid nutrients are divided per litre of medium in the pots or they are the total amounts I added. Just ask if you have Questions.

The fifth week of the 12/12 cycle and the Pineapples aren't going great. The plant on the right side is barely showing signs of deficiency, the one next to it the most signs. The other 2 have also signs of deficiency, but less. I think the ph levels of 6.1 were a bit too low so I'm going to keep those between 6.3 – 6.5 in further grows. But there's gonna be weed because the buds are taking form and smell is kicking in good. This is what they've got this week Day 1 → Each 1250 ml (0.33 gallon) ph adjusted tapwater (ec 0.48– ph 6.3) Day 2 → Dry Day 3 → Each 1250 ml (0.33 gallon) tapwater with Plagron nutrients (see above for which and how much) Day 4 → Dry Day 5 → Each 1250 ml (0.33 gallon) ph adjusted tapwater (ec 0.48– ph 6.3) Day 6 → Dry Day 7 → Same as day 3 The cobs are now at 45 cm with 268 watt → DLI 38.2/PPFD 884 Temperatures stayed between 21.1 – 28.4 °C ( 69.9 – 83.1 °F) and humidity levels between 47 – 70 % Till next week!

Honestly it feels to me like they took a couple finos of one plant and that's what they sold you. Couple of the plants came out a real fruity smell a couple of them came out a real dark gassy smell, what's crazy is I did the animal cookies and kept them separate and then I did the space cookies and kept those separate and one of the animal cookies and one of the space cookies turned out fruity and then one of the space cookies and one of the animal cookies turned out dark gassy smelling. That's why I think they just threw in a handful of phenos and called them whatever. Ordered from cookies/ lemonade for next crop. Better genetics better crop. I used LED for all of this made by Vipar Spectra the xs1500. This grow had nutrient lock out at one point hence the weird colors had to flush. Happy growing everybody! Also anyone looking into emerald harvest I highly suggest it It's the closest thing to all natural while still providing all nutrients. This was all grown in soil so I would advise not to use as much and don't mix brands, Stick with one whole solution and try using coco, much better results in my opinion faster nutrient uptake. Coco is the closest to hydroponics without having to water constantly.

Today is Day 50 !! We have started flower an they are just looking amazing! We have switched up the nutrients for flower, instead of 1 tsp bloom and 3 tsp of veg , we just swap 3 tsp of bloom and 1 tsp of veg !! Can’t wait to see what these laddies do this week!!

very strong resin production, a heavy hitter, nighttime stuff! a real great strain, highly recommended! you can certainly smell the grape with a creamy touch! ps. one of the plants was a mutant, it was very weak, had almost no resin on it and absolutely no scent at all....but it had alot of potency and a awesome yield!

Started giving only water and removed some dying leaves. As I thought the plants are still not ready to be harvested will be about 5/6 days away, that's okay at least I have time to do a good root rinsing to clean them of any remaining fertilizer residue.

Hello growmies! Welcome to week seven of An Epsilon Adventure! Massive thanks to both Shogun and Royal Queen Seeds for sponsoring this grow! I have just completed the final defoliation for the three least advanced (and largest) girls. I have also rearranged the tent again to try to maximize the space available and light usage. I have not fertigated for 5 days after the last fertigation was a flush without coco base. I am struggling with humidity at the moment so I have been trying to let the plants go more dry than usual. Daily Updates ### Week 7 Day 2 02:30 7/8 Heavily defoliated plants 1, 5 & 6 and removed some of the lower branches. Rearranged tent then photographed & measured: Plant 1 is now almost unbelievably 2nd tallest at "only" 141cm in height! Her stretch has just about ended. Plant 2 has stopped stretching at 111cm and is 2nd most advanced into flower. Plant 3 has stopped stretching at 95cm and is most advanced into flower. Plant 4 has stopped stretching at 100cm and is 3rd most advanced into flower. Plant 5 has gained 6cm this week and may add few more but she is pretty close to done stretching at 119cm. Plant 6 has gained 22cm this week and isn't quite finished. She is now the tallest plant in the series at 142cm. ### Week 7 Day 2 07:00 7/8 Fertigated 1.6l each ### Week 7 Day 4 02:00 9/8 Fertigated 1.6l each reduced coco a/b to 2m/l each. Spent a bit more time photographing and videoing to try and capture the changes and the developmental differences. These 140cm+ plants are going to STACK. I am bracing myself for a lot of trimming and a monster harvest. 🙏 The current order of maturity and likely order of harvest is 3 2 4 1 5 6. I think the first and last plants will be at least a week apart in harvest, perhaps 2 or 3. ### Week 7 Day 6 23:00 11/8 Fertigated 1.6l each The smell in the tent is there now, really not that strong but there are 6 plants motoring through flower here now so it's not insignificant either. Plant 3 is absolutely stacking now, she's more or less run out of space around her cola and is now growing some foxtail like structures, exciting! Plant 6 the least mature is 2-3 weeks behind plant 3, but her stretch has finally stopped at 144cm. Took wide angle in tent photos today. All of the girls are drinking a lot now, but especially plant 1 who is really thirsty. --- Thanks for reading growmies! 👊 ========== Tent: 120cm x 120cm x 180cm Light: 600w HID Elite Dual Spectrum HPS + Angel Wing Reflector Air: 5" duct fan system with carbon filter ~300 m3/hour + RAM 9" floor fan + 4" intake fan Pots: Air Pruner Fabric Pots 30l - UGro XL Coco + horticultural grade perlite (~20%) Seeds supplied by Royal Queen Seeds https://www.royalqueenseeds.com Nutrients supplied by Shogun Fertilisers https://www.shogunfertilisers.com/en ==========

I came back after vacation, the girl is ready for cutting, the rainy weather has started, so there is a threat of rot, you can say I managed to find just a few small pits in time and removed them and threw them away, the big and stiff flowers look fantastic:) but after a long trip I was tired, so I didn't take quality photos :( no everything else, I am very satisfied with the result I got:) its smell already lets me know that it will be good:) a lot of sugar leaves from which I will make bubble hash:) I will update the weight when it dries.

🌸 Woche - Week 13 Review 🌡️ Wetter: Viel Regen, kühlere Tage und kürzere Tage – manchmal denke ich, die Pflanze hat mehr Sonne gesehen als ich 😂. 📈 Wachstum: Endhöhe erreicht, kräftig und stabil. 💡 Licht & Energie: Selbst bei grauem Himmel holt sie alles raus. 🌿 Blattgesundheit: Robust, keine Mängel. 💧 Wasser & Nährstoffe: Regen sorgt für feuchte Erde, Nährstoffe regelmäßig zugegeben. 🔄 Entwicklung: Viele kompakte, harzige Blüten – Vorblüte läuft noch stabil, Geruch nur nah spürbar 👃. ✅ Fazit: Meine allererste Pflanze 🌱 – dauert länger, aber ich bin mega zufrieden. Wettertypisch deutsch eben: Die Pflanze lächelt, während ich mit der Jacke dastehe 😅. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 🌡️ Weather: Lots of rain, cooler and shorter days – sometimes I think the plant saw more sun than I did 😂. 📏 Growth: Final height reached, strong and stable. 💡 Light & Energy: Even on grey days, she makes the most of it. 🌿 Leaf Health: Robust, no issues. 💧 Water & Nutrients: Rain keeps soil moist, nutrients added regularly. 🔄 Development: Many compact resinous flowers – pre-flowering steady, smell only close up 👃. ✅ Overall: My very first plant 🌱 – taking longer, but super happy. Classic German weather: the plant smiles while I stand there in a jacket 😅.

the buds are very small, i had the same problem on the motherplant that i grew in hydro, its just a very bad phenotype, i had 2 of these in the package of 10 seeds, 8/10 was very good plants with very big yields of 125 grams/plant wich took very less space in the growroom. i yielded 170grams of this pheno in the rdwc system but the plant was very big ( took almost the whole tent in) so i reccomend not groIng this in hydro, it also finishes faster in soil with autumn colors at the end. i have a feeling the buds will get more weight in the coming week this is also only a 104watt LED.

The XL Runtz are performing although one of the two also got stunted and is a little behind on her sister. I've been trying to balance everything. PH, temps, nutes.... With these smaller grow bags, the buffering capabilities of my super soil are less. Furthermore, this grow I didn't add the hydro corn, I didn't add the biochar either. The one 20 liter grow bag seems to perform a lot better while my experience is with auto's that anything over 15 liters should not make a difference. But the difference is: they keep their water better in the heat, they can buffer better and these are aspects that are important in a hot grow tent. The SP 3000 is still performing wonderfully! Very thankful for the opportunity to try it out and recommend this light to all!! So with this lesson learned I'm going to focus on better-growing auto's perpetually, I like how they perform and what they can yield in only half the time. The left one should be getting ready soon. The other and the Forbiddens will take two weeks I think... If they really recover. Thanks for dropping in again!!

First off I just want to say for some reason it’s not letting me change the right temperatures on my diaries ! Each time when I put it in they stay at 50. My day air stays 75 degrees an , night degrees is 70 ! Today is day 58 for all these ladies! This week has been really great ! Girls really progressed a lot , especially for one the Forbiddin Runtz, looks like is gonna finish up in a week or 2 ! Other then that they are coming along well! Keep those eyes peeled for next week! Cheers😶‍🌫️💨💨💨💨
