There are no photos for a few days, I was away on a short vacation :) when I returned, I immediately started working with her, I cut off the single leaves, and used a little LST, Overall, the girl looks really beautiful;) strong, thick branches, I think she will give really tasty buds :) It is an autoflower, but it is not blooming yet, I think it will start soon, all my auto strains that I have grown before, started really earlier, but it is not a problem for me, and maybe even + she will be bigger with bigger flowers :) good luck to everyone :).

Everything went as good as it could the last week. I definitely realize now that the light was too much for them once they stretched up from the lack of knowledge using my light mover. I’m still trying to figure them out but I believe I have the rite combination now for speed and pause times, but sadly to late for this crop. My other tent just going into flower with the same setup will be run drastically differently this time for a lot of things to compensate for my intense 1000w HPS. I’ve grown massive Buds before under this light in smaller tents and I’ll be dam’d if I’m gonna let this light rail defeat me! Lol so we are gonna start flush now because we are just about 8 weeks in and although we do have a ton of bud in this tent and I would have like to push her a bit more, we are gonna take what we got and move on! Lol there are a lot of medium size buds absolutely everywhere, and solid. Even below the top screen, between the 2 screens every node has a solid bud sticking out. Still gonna be a nice yield I think all things considered. Ph pretty much stayed constant in the reservoir at 6.0 as well as the EC was sitting around 1.5 all week. Wish I could get my light up more but I’m having a hard time finding the attachment for my light rail mover to add a bar instead of ropes to suspend it. I can’t justify $100 to import it from USA though...lol so I’m gonna experiment with some other diy one once I get these girls cut down, dont wanna mess around above them and risk dropping the heavy light on my girls. That’s it for this week. Gonna start out flush in the next day or so and ill report back in a week or so! Cheers💨

Back to the 1000 wt as temps here are modest for July atm. Still 1 plant not flowering like the other 2. I will be patient as it’s overall structure looks amazing. Slowly easing into the process not as much anxiety about every little thing. Changed my light out for my lower power 600 wt led instead of the 1000wt TMLAPY. Maybe not the right move i really don't know what to do b/c i have tip burn and my tent gets a bit hot in the low 80s when its in the 90s here in Illinois. I have an makeshift cooler w fan and some fans and my exhaust fan system which im pretty sure is under powered and overall and bad beginner purchase. I will upgrade as soon as i can financially afford to. Also had flooding issues in basement which is always an adventure, i eventually need a better way to get my grow tent up off the ground b/c water does get in there sometimes. Doing everything in my power to avoid mold and have fans and filters and cleaning, but again this may have been a beginner mistake and i may have to find a new home for the tent for the next time. Also I definitely had been under watering the girls and came close to one of them dying and have to remove some yellow leaves at bottom, they all look stable now. 1 out of 3 plants has a darker color and looks fuller and healthier w less tip burn but it is shorter only has a couple of hairs where the other 2 are going full on into flowering with so many hairs and growing much taller. Possibly stunted the growth... Anyway the word of the day for this week is TIP BURN. I will submit a question to follow. i recently uploaded a video that should show all 3 plants w the tip burn.

We have made it to day 42! 31/12/20 All the girls have started flowering now! I'm super keen to see them start to thicken up. Feeding as usual, nothings changed. Update - day 46 04/01/21 I'm a little concerned about the 2 runts that were laggin behind the rest, all of a sudden theyve decided they want to take up most of the room in the tent. I've never grown autos so big.. I was contemplating putting the runts outside but it's just going to make more problems as my outdoors are under attack from some kind of bug. I will keep the diary updated on the runts, other than that the other girls are doing just great, flowering is really coming along. Thanks for stopping by!

Was facing some difficulty when it came to lighting (what brand, wattage, output range, full spectrum etc.) Did a watering today with a mix of Epsom salt & purified water which was the 1st nutrient mixture since my ladies been in the soil. A couple of changes made since I've joined GD is I changed the distance of lights to plant (was @ 14-18 now 20-24 inches away thanks for that folks) lighting schedule is still on a 18/6hr. Another trick I choose was the water used...it's either rain water or artesian water both help eliminate unwanted pH unbalance. This is my 1st grow and Im going to post more photos of the entire setup. If you guys&gala have any other helpful tips for a better grow lmk. I also wanted to do a LST on my autos but not quite sure when to do, they're currently coming out of week 2 into week 3 vegg mode. Every tip and hint helps so let em fly.

День 29. Чихать хотела растишка на топпинг, она все равно пытается разорвать бокс и горшок. Сегодня поливать не буду, скорее завтра. Субстрат пока сырой, пусть корни ищут влагу и растут. Чувствую через дней 10 буду делать SCROG и к концу 6-ой недели переводить на цвет. Имеем 4 этажа, 8 веток, что в принципе достаточно. Растет так быстро, что мелкие перья у семилистников не успевают развернуться. День 30. Кормление также по плану, 800/5.6. Обрезал 4 лапуха, так как после топинга потянулись вверх нижние этажи, но лопухи мешают и загораживают от света. Скоро начну пригибать ветки. Всего планируется 8 колл - по 2 с каждого этажа. Еще отодвинул от света подальше, горшки стояли на подставке. Как и хотел сделал растишку коренастой, а вот будущие коллы надо вытянуть, чтобы удобно было развести под сеткой. День 31. Уже даже не смотрю на PH и PPM, потому что рука набилась опять на этот гров. Замешивал AD phPerfect Coco по 2.5мл на 2 литра. Чуток снижаю PH/PPM чтобы не было засола. На дренаж не смотрел. Лень. По фото и так видно, как после топпинга даже рванули те листья, которые даже и не собирались расти. Стрельнул третий этаж. Чую нужно начинать загибать. Видимо, уже завтра. День 32. Не смотря на топпинг и дефолиацию растишка за 3 дня даже не то чтобы стрессанула, а увеличилась в объеме раза в 3 точно. При чем складывается впечатление, что она растет ночью, а не днем. Полив новым компотом 5.5/550, выход 5.9/530. Растиха начинает голодать, точнее аппетитно кушает. Завтра буду заряжать под 800. Центральный ствол уже толщиной примерно 5мм. По краям горшка уже видно куча повылезавших корней. Надо будет еще раз покормить микоризой. Пригнул два верхних этажа. Даже не знаю, буду ли делать SCROG или нет. 8 плотных веток мне хватит за глаза на пол года с одного куста, а у меня их два разных сортов. Наверное дождусь пока нижние этажи сравняются с верхними, переведу на цвет в конце 6-ой недели и посмотрим, нужен ли скрог или нет. Уж очень кусты низкие получились в этот раз. День 33. Натянул сетку и будем выравнивать этажи. Как все подрастут и разойдутся по углам - буду переводить на цвет. Полив GHE, PPM/PH - 740/5.5, выход 638/6.3. Говорит что мало жратвы и надо еще. Завтра подниму до 1000 PPM. Надо PH поднять до 6.8 в дренаж. День 34. Обнаружил что серьезно облажался с самого начала грова... Новый TDS метр по умолчанию показывает в μs, а мне надо в PPM. Коэфициент кондуктомера 0.5, то есть у меня компот в два раза меньше насыщенности, чем нужно. То то у меня вечно PPM падает, а PH растет и понять не могу почему так активно жрет, но растет не так как нужно. Судя по моему же дневнику и фоткам, активно росло именно тогда, когда проливал 800-1000μs (400-500 PPM). Пролил теперь уже нормальным компотом Coco Grow A+B PPM/PH 740/5.7, выход с дренажа 483/6.3. Жесть какой низкий PPM. Надо будет понаблюдать.

Graduated, and am off from work for a few weeks, so went overboard on photos. Plant is doing well, leaves are starting to turn yellow (strain trait). Can't wait for the harvest and being able legally gift my xmas ornaments to my cousins during our "cousins walk" at our family xmas party.

This week the nice flowering continues. I bought a new light in China, Samsung LM301H 240W so I added it into my grow tent. The weak plant is probably destroyed and the yield will be very small.

This strain is just incredible, perfect indica high with a sativa sidenote It grows strong and is quite resistent to mold. All plants were done after about 60 days of flowering. First time i used a tumble trimmer and it works perfectly. I didn't check PH or EC at all

Die Letzte Woche der Blüte mit zufügung von Dünger für die 3 Red Hot Cookies, ab jetzt werden die Mädels nurnoch mit ordentlich viel Wasser gegossen bis zur Ernte. El Patron und Strawberry Lemonade bekommen noch 1-2 Wochen mehr, jenachdem wie gut sie den zusätzlichen Platz ausnutzen sobald die 3 Red Hot Cookies das Zelt verlassen haben. 👍 😁😍

still growing fast as fuck. i was falling more and more in love with her as time passed. she was showing signs of hunger so i gave her, her first feed of veg nutes on december 5th 2021. I mixed 1/2 tsp to each gallon. I used a bucket with 3 gallons of dechlorinated tap water. Decmber 8th: same amount of veg to gallons of water with the same 1/2 tsp. phd to 6.4. December 10th gave her a feed honestly dont know how much. id say about 10-20 cups worth of dechlorinated tap water with 1/2 tsp of veg nutes to 3 gallons.

Week 5 had been amazing just that this week we had 3 days of rain which was great for the plant. I gave her some Tea again except that this time I use the rain water I collected. Which was ph at 6.3 and the run of off was ph at 6.8 The plant is around 10 inches now and I am starting to notice some red/purple lines on the stems. The smell is weak but it is still a little early to judge. I would really like some feedback you guys.

This week went pretty well, other than she stretched like crazy and I am now getting worried about running out of vertical space. I also had a few of my bottom leaves get a few brown and yellow spots on them. I did post some pics and asked a question, thank you for the responses, much appreciated! I am thinking about adding my Spyder Farmer LED 100 Watt light into the tent for the nebula auto because it is about 23 inches shorter than the sour diesel. I believe it would only raise my temp about 2 degrees, and possibly lower the humidity by one or two percent. I must say my dehumidifier has been a freaking stud, running 24X7 and not complaining. I should look into adding another unit, it has been in the mid 90's and muggy for about a week. So far I have to say I am super impressed and excited with this setup, the genetics, and with growing this wonderful plant in general. Already planning ahead to my next grow, and what I can do better. I have been enjoying myself and I really appreciate everyone who has taken the time to answer my questions! I am having a blast and am excited to see what this lady will give up in a few weeks!

Most ladies are showing signs of flowering so today I will start counting the weeks. Here u can also see my mutant/special ladies. They germinated a bit different from the others. Day 3 of flower is showing some major progress‼️🙌🏽 I did NOT top any of these mutated plants. I only removed some very ugly growing leaves. So everything u see on them is done by mother nature.
