Flushing the bigger girl since day 140. Harvested the smaller girl on day 141, but will show you the results after I harvest the other one. I had a little of it, but I had cut some branches to smoke some weed previously!

Bueno, al final las flores desde el tallo medio hacia arriba no han sido polinizadas ... ¡o al menos pocas tendrán semillas! Porfin los cogollos están empezando a hincharse y definitivamente les daré una semana más de floración. ¿Qué dices? Si teneis algún consejo para mí, lo agradesco mucho!

Apolo F1 Mission Diary - Chapter One: The Germination Adventure Greetings, fellow cultivators and green-thumb enthusiasts! Today, I embark on a thrilling journey with the illustrious Apolo F1 from the generous folks at Royal Queen Seeds. A hearty shoutout to @James and RQS for entrusting me with this botanical endeavor! Our mission begins with a ceremonial soaking – a 24-hour baptism in water. Picture this: the seed, poised on the edge of germination, absorbing life essence like a tiny horticultural superhero gearing up for a mission to conquer the soil. After this aqueous initiation, our Apolo F1 found a cozy spot nestled in a Soil Plug sponge. Why, you ask? Well, these sponges are like the first-class cabins of germination – providing a soft bed for our sprouting champion. No Spartan conditions for our future ganja greatness! Lo and behold, in a mere 24 hours, our little seedling emerged from its watery cocoon, showing off a minuscule tail that screamed readiness for action. It's like witnessing the birth of a botanical superhero, cape and all! Now, onto the supporting cast – Aptus Holland Nutrients, my loyal sponsors in this quest. These nutrients are the unsung heroes of my garden, the Gandalfs to my Frodo, guiding the way to a prosperous harvest. A nod to organic mineral goodness – the only line I trust like a seasoned captain trusts his compass. But wait, let's not forget the shoutouts! Massive love to Grow Diaries for being the digital arena where growers unite, share wisdom, and showcase their green achievements. And to my followers, you're the wind beneath my plant's leaves, propelling this journey forward with your unwavering support. As the Apolo F1 unfurls its leaves to the world, I invite you all to join me in this botanical odyssey. Buckle up, dear readers, for we are about to witness the magic of life and the artistry of cultivation unfold in each leaf, each nutrient, and each shoutout. Stay tuned for the next chapter in our Apolo F1 Mission Diary – where we dive into the world of nutrients and nurturing! Until then, happy growing, my green companions! As always thank you all for stopping by and for supporting me on this journey, i am super passion about growing and fell blessed to have you all with me on this new journey <3 <3 <3 Genetics - RQS APOLLO F1 Ligth - LUMATEK ZEUS 465 COMPACT PRO

This week has been a mixed bag for my two plants. #1 is really taking off now, showing strong growth and picking up speed!🌱 It’s looking healthy and vigorous, which is great to see. Towards the end of the week, I also noticed the first signs of flowering—exciting! Unfortunately, #2 is still struggling.😩 It has barely grown and remains very small compared to #1. If it doesn’t start making progress soon, I might consider replacing it with another plant. I’ll give it a little more time, but let’s see how things develop in the next week. Fingers crossed!🤞

Today is day 23 of flower. So I've been chasing a minor P-K deficiency. The plants are happy and healthy and are just feeding heavy at the moment. Well over and above any recommended servings with respect to the dry amendments and water soluble P-K inputs. As with any grow regardless of what you're using for inputs (organic amendments/salt based bottle feeding/crop salts/etc....) the recommended feed rates are never anything more than a baseline. So to remedy the deficiency I added the Flower 2 at 1.5 times the reccomended dosage (3 grams per liter of water) and a little over twice the dosage of Gaia Green 2-8-4 Power Bloom dry amendments (250ml per 7 gallon pot). I also fed a mung bean/barley seed sprout tea as well as a compost tea (2/3 of a cup of each seed). The feed rates will stay well above recommended servings for the Flower 2 but the 250ml addition of the 2-8-4 would be considered a large addition for a single serving so I will give the plants 5-7 days to see how they react to dry amendments before top amending again at any rate (you cant burn your plants with organic inputs but you can still suffer nutrient lockout so you need to be mindful and patient when feeding heavy.) On day 19 of flower I did a large pruning/defoliation/lollipopping of the plants. Both from the top of the pot to the bottom of the first layer of trellis removing everything. I also cleaned the plants out from above the first layer of trellis netting to the top of the plant. As I waited to clean up the bottom third of the plants until my typical strip day in flower (day 18-21 depending on strain and flowering times, these are 9 week strains which is why the strip falls in the day 18-21 range, if they were 8 week finishers the leaf strip would take place somewhere between days 14-16). When running multiple layers of trellis netting it's best to prune/lollipop everything below the first layer of netting about 7-10 days before the flip. Odds are your lights wont penetrate that far down the plant so these areas of the plant typically only produce what's commonly known as larf. I'm running new lights so I decided I'd wait until the big strip I always do in flower. This was grower error. I know better and wont make this mistake again. Its unnecessary stress added during flower that could've been prevented. As I decided to wait to clean out the bottoms I didnt prune the plants as aggressively as I normally would (I adopted Grand Master Levels leaf strip practices years ago, check him out on IG or YouTube if you want to see what that looks like). The week went smoothly with no major issues to report. The seasons are changing here so were getting rain, damp wet snow, and have very humid conditions outside. As a result this affects the atmosphere in my grow room but not enough to cause concern. A little less than 6 weeks until the chop!

fresh water 580ppm ph 6.2 i decided to go a bit lower in ppm as this is an autoflower stretch starts, there isnt much time left before flower maybe 1 week. i started counting “day 1” as when the seed popped open thats why it looks like this plant is 1 week behind day 40: little defoliation

Happy 2 Months To These Lovely Ladies. I Will Be Harvesting The Purple Purple On Friday, I Wanted To Harvest It Today But The Soil Is Not Fully Dry Out And I Don’️t Want To Harvest It When The Soil Is Still Wet. I Bought A Pocket Microscope To Check The Trichomes And Although There Are Only Literally Only 1 Or 2 Amber Trichomes On The Purple Power Some Of The Upper Buds Are Showing Signs Of Overripe By Getting Dry & Crispy And Stretching Apart. I Will Be Taking Off Most Of The Fan Leaves On The Girls Scout Cookies (5gal) And The Gorilla Glue For Better Light Penetration. The Flowering 5 Have Such Lovely Scents Coming Off Them From Sweet Berries And Pine To Different Types Of Lemon I Just Love When I When The Tent Is Close Up And I Open It And All The Flavours Just Hits Me All At Once. The Lemon OG From MSNL Is Now Over The 100cm Mark It’️s Now At 104cm(Proud Moment). Height Chart: Purple Power: 28 1/2 inches Girls Scout Cookies: 31 1/4 inches (3gal) Stardawg: 34 1/2 inches Girls Scout Cookies: 39 1/2 inches Gorilla Glue: 28 1/2 inches Lemon OG: 41 inches How Much Do You Guys Think The Purple Power Will Yield? How Much Longer Do You Think The Girls Scout Cookies(3gal) & Stardawg Has Before It Is Time To Harvest? Please Take Time Out To Like My Grow Diary, Have A Crazy Amount Of Views And Not Enough Likes To Correspond. Peace, Love And Guidance.

Sad news. Due to no fault but my own the sherberts were subjected to some very badly managed environmental factors. I have been busy building our new grow space and was not checking the plants at the back of the space. The 2 sherberts were there at the back and the RH went on a roller coaster over 4 days with temps swinging massively also due to an unmanaged dehumidifier.. the end result was both sherberts stressed out and grew some pollen sacs and I did not see so the burst and pollinated my entire flower room. Gutted. But I will push through the last few weeks of flower with all the current grows and see what we get. I had to chop alot of lower bud. Sacs had burst so I just did a very have clear. Have I mentioned I'm gutted. And this is not a reflection of weedseedsexpress genetics. I have looked at the data logs for last 9 days and it's so up and down with rh and temp it's no wonder they stressed. Next round less plants and I have to stop with the clones.. no room. Thanks for looking. Stay safe😷 Happy grows.🌱🌱

I can’t say enough about my love for this strain. Stunning looks, irresistible smell, and incredible smoke. I can’t wait to taste her she smells just like my first blackberry. That earthy sweet berry yankee candle type of smell. I’m addicted to growing her. My favorite strain to this day. Everything is going smoothly as she is fattening up. I’m gonna begin the slow fade on her and won’t be giving her much nutrients unless I think they’d be affective.

Week 9 – Orange Apricot Glue XL Auto The final stretch. Buds are fully developed, covered in trichomes, and bursting with citrus and apricot aromas. The resin production is at its peak, and the living soil has done its job. Like her neighbor, she won’t be standing much longer—harvest is just days away.

Please like and follow the diary, or leave a comment!! appreciate the support guys🙏💚🔥 Ok guys here we are i thought they would be ready for harvest by now, but i think they gave another 7-9 days to go soo fingers crossed next post will be harvest time! I would have carried on feeding if I knew it would take this , but now we are on flawless finish until harvest Trichomes are still mostly milky, have some clear ones on the banana purple punch because she is foxtailing like mad because of heat, and just a touch of amber on some Been 30+ Celsius most of the grow, luckily this week will be cooler for them I also did a stupid and fell in my tent while taking pics, ended up with 1 branch of z up as a premature tester hahaah I've added some pics of it Am going to enter my banana purple punch and z up in the biggest cola contest (I know my ruler starts from 22cm my 10 month old broke it) so BPP is currently 34cm long and the z up is 24 cm long

I'm impressed with this C4 Auto, from fastbuds this is one of two plants I grew. This plant is a real indoor plant she grows lovely. The other plant is an outdoor plant it's pretty too don't get me wrong but where i thought the outdoors would produce a bigger plant i got the opposite of that, I got a Mutated plant, nice colored bud on here but she continues to mutate even in flowering stage my indoor plant is twice her height and size but love both my C4 Auto from fastbuds. Even if they broke my heart by changing payment policy, I'll never be able to get seeds from fastbuds again so I decided to spray my runt on the outdoors with tiresias mist feminized seed spray..... hopefully I get some pollen and able to pollinate my indoor C4 Auto..

First sets of pistils were spotted on Sunday and so I decided to make today the official first day of flower for this plant, woot! Gave her a 2/3 str. nute feeding and will be monitoring her closely. This week I added in 5mL of the tiger bloom when I mixed my 1gal of nutes. Thursday update: Got an Exhale CO2 bag hung up, super excited to see how much they help my plant! On other update news, i decided to do some super-cropping on account of her rigourous growth. One of the branches snapped just a little, but enough for me to get the tape. Other than that, all is well! She's drinking plenty of water every day and I haven't fed her nutes since Monday. Monday update: Ordered some Exhale CO2 bags for the grow tent that will be arriving thursday!

Day 36 Moby Dick it's at 28inches in height and Blue amnesia is at 32. and because the smell has become too strong to contain in the tent I turn on the carbon filter fan 24/7 instead of intervals of every 2 hours on for 30 minutes so now my tent it's not so hot and my plans drink less water every 3-days. I will keep updating . day 38 the plants are stretching very fast I'm forced to raise the light everyday the blue amnesia is 39 in tall and the Moby Dick it at 32 inches tall I resumed regular feeding schedules on the plants and they seem to be growing even faster after each watering. Thank you for reading and have a happy grow. Day 42 They continue stretching pretty fast blue amnesia it's at 42 inches and Moby Dick it's at 33 3/4 inches. I only have noticed some lower fan leaves turning yellow and drying up I'm going to stop nutrients for the next one to watering sections because I think I've been pushing the plant too hard but it could be normal I just don't know. I posted two Fan leaf pictures to see if somebody has an idea what it could be but I think is probably too much nutrients I will continue updating thank you for reading happy growing. Day 44 definitely the issue is my fault pushing it too hard. They have nitrogen toxicity they have all the symptoms the claw leaf the weakness of the leave the yellowing and purple color of some branches the Deep shiny green on the leaf. the fact that I've been pushing that pretty hard I already have water them twice with clean water ph 6.0 hoping to use up all the extra in the pot and I will do it one more time from two days from now and then trying new nutrients at 1/3 full strength. .they seem to be responding well but if they start losing to many leafs i well flosh them in the shawer. Day 46 because I saw my plans going downhill pretty quick I decide to test Runner run-off it was incredibly High / 4000 + PPM so yeah to the showers they went until runoff was 1000 or below PH was at 6.2 and for the next watering in 3 days from now approximately depending on temperature and thirst of the plans I will resume flowering nutrients only and maybe only at 600 PPM the plant took a beating as well since I have to remove the scrog net and they were being support only buy it but I had no choice it was to see then die and then start over again or giving a flush so they can recuperate and take it slow for a few days until they can handle more nutrients. My hands end up being very sticky handling the buds even though I did it as gently as humanly possible so they were packed with sticki Racine even though they were stressed out what incredibly robust genetics. I will continue updating thank you for reading and have a happy grow. Day 48 the plants seems to be bouncing back they lost a lot of fan leaf at the bottom and some of the ones that were turning yellow at the top develop marks . One off the blue amnesia was more affected than the other three plants I will probably hold nutrients for it only for this plant. They stop stretching as much the blue amnesia are measures 44 inches and the Moby Dick is at 40 inch after the flush the buds are getting fatter and bigger every day . thank you for reading and have a happy growing
