Week 3 for the solo is officially complete. She's been growing with no trouble. Root development has been excellent. As you can see, I decided to mainline. Seeing as she's in a solo cup, I'm not too worried about stunting. I'm horrible at measuring the water intake, but the cup needs to be watered daily. It's as lite as a feather everyday.

6.13 F73 - Started chopping and pre-washing late Thursday into the early Friday morning. Three buckets - 1) 1/2c lemon juice, 1/2c Baking Soda 2) water 3) water - seems to have worked really well, buds are very clean and the the water definitely had a bunch of fiber and dust. They drip dried for an hour or so before being moved into the dry tent which has been between 60-70F and 50-60rh Took down most of the ScrOG Passion Berry and Deadstar from drying and froze. Gonna wash some tonight to see if it pulls well. The last five plants have been in dark since monday morning, so will cut, wash and hang tomorrow. 6.19 F80 -

Amnesia: Chopped and now hanging in my drying area, looking nice and exuding scents of tropical fruit and sour pungency. Very satisfied with how she finished this time around. Gelato: Nice, plush looking nugs that are quite dense and smells sweet but with lime tinged pungent notes. Big stature as expected from this strain, promising signs for the yield to come. Watermelon Zkittlez: Sugar frosted, glittery buds that look headstash-quality right on the plant, definitely has bag appeal. Fruit Candy smell and encrusted colas resembling snow cones and christmas trees. California Orange: Mighty towers of shining, citrus juiced buds, with foxtails out the wazoo. Yield monster of the run, despite getting latest start. Legend status. Check out the video for shots of the Amnesia buds at harvest. Cheers, i reckon the Gelato’ll be up next on the chopping block.

* Setup * Veg: 125W CFL Bloom: Outdoor 12/12 Soil: Canna Coco Pot: 3gal, 12L, Fabric pot. Methods used: LST, Topping, Fimming, Defoliation, Neem oil misting Wet weight: Not weighed/harvested entire plant yet, but harvested part, trimmed was 270g, and around 30g of sugar leaves, thats is in the freezer. Wet bud on stick Weight: ca 480g Fine trimmed Dry bud weight: 119g The sugar leaves/popcorn nugs not weighed. I also have 1/3 of the plant left to harvest, probably tomorrow. After that I can give you the full wet weight, and hopefully in 2 weeks the full dry weight! (If I dont smoke to much if it before 😆) Thank you all for following this diary. And thank you @Sweet_Seeds for your fantastic seeds! "Sweet seeds are made of this Who am I to disagree? I smoked in the world And in the seven seas Everybody's looking for something Some of them want to smoke you Some of them want to get smoked by you" I got this plant as a present from my local club, supposdely its Cream Caramel from Sweet Seeds. It was around 2 weeks old when I got it. I have no former experience of any type of growing cultivation, I recently Moved to a country where cannabis cultivation for personal use is legal. I started this Journey by having the plant under 25W of homemade lamp solution and 6hrs of sun, until I could buy proper setup for vegetation. Growdiaries really helped me learn alot fast and achieve results way above me and my girlfriends expectations. I topped the plant Once, I accidently stepped on it, Vegged it under 125W Of CFL from week 3 onwards and then transitioned to Outdoor. The weather around here has been the hottest in 60 years, averaging around 32 lately. Humidity has been stable around 50-70% with a average of around 60% I really learned alot and this strain(which ever it now is, ill ask the club again!) is fantastic and most definently not Indica like.

It's been 78 days since sprout, the plants are all still coming along nicely, getting heavier by the day even though it doesn't always seem like it. I always have difficulty realizing how much growth happens in a week. I felt like they hadn't bulked up much but then I looked back at my last update and clearly was wrong. I am trying to figure out how much time before harvest, but I am still leaning toward closer to 100 days. The plants are still being fed crop salt at the ratios posted a few weeks ago, currently I plan to do one more res change with full strength nutes and then after that two weeks of their Cake finishing nutrients (https://cropsalt.com/products/cake) which would put me a few days past 100 days with a harvest date of July 18th or 19th. This past week I also set up a Home Assistant dashboard to monitor the tent and added a camera as well. Kind of a bit late for this grow but it will be awesome for the next time around. Aside from the sensor in the tent, I have also purchased a wireless battery-powered temp and humidity sensor that will be going in the 5-gallon bucket I am going to use to cure. Here is a guide I made if anyone is interested in setting something similar up. https://gist.github.com/Jamal-J-Jackson/f47baa9e5a9f9534affa543583022abf#file-home-assistant-guide-md

Fattening week, putting more weight on the buds, first brown hairs appearing.. Had to add some support to that huge buds, because this was a windy week and i think it is better prevention than lament the loss later.... used steel string. Feeding with High PK, same as last week: / -WATER- / -BIG ONE- + -TOP BLOOM- + -TOP CANDY- / -WATER- / -TOP BUD- + -TOP BLOOM- + -TOP CANDY- / Good vibes!!!

Como se puede ver ya han empezado la fase de floración 2 de ellas.. auto moon rock y auto fractal 2.. La Auto Fractal 1 todavía no a empezado la floración. La semana pasada la auto moon rock era la mas alta, pero esta semana ya esta la auto fractal 2 del mismo tamaño. Para estar en exterior con las pocas horas solares, tienen de 4 a 6 horas de sol al día, este mes esta siendo lluvioso y aun tienen menos horas.. Ya no las guardo, lo que llueva que lo aprovechen que el agua de lluvia tiene algo especial que a las plantas les encanta. Actualizacion semana 6 dia 49

Well, this was a interesting first journey.... the buds finished drying today, 5 days drying, added pics and vids. Just curing to go.... ah nice buds :) Edit: i forgot to mention i went over the buds when i harvested them, and checked / removed any impurities, like gnats caught in the sticky bud.... picked em clean with tweezers... 👍 Edit: needed to air/dry out the buds abit more, and get some Boveda Humidipak for curing.... it's looking good... i'll update with some pics of trimmed, cured buds 😎 The buds turned out beautiful, pungent, pine, berry, citrusy, daytime, medical..... this has theoretical 1:1 - 21% THC, 19% CBD, so it's not going to give u a knockout high.... its medical grade 1:1 ....... side effects - happy, relaxed. haha :) I weighed it dry and came up with about 123.32g (4.35oz) ... i used abit of guesswork in the weight, not to concerned with weight, as to quality.... (that weight is with the test buds added in, +-15g.) .... you can guess the weight from the pics and vids, haha I really enjoyed growing this.... i found the website by looking up the seeds, decided to start a grow diary, it's my first grow, i made alot of mistakes and growdiaries really helped alot, joined a chat group with some other really good growers. Edit - Day 111 - added vid/pic, Been curing for a week, burp and roll em abit twice a day....... smell and taste nicer each day, 👍 Edit - Day 112 - added good vid of trimmed up test bud, beautiful ...... I hope You enjoyed the Diary..... Good Buds 😎

ok so i had to make a lot of selections on which clones, and seeds would survive, Amherst Sour Diesel seeds were all garbage. All ASD went into the same soil as other clones and seedlings, ffof mixed with a light black gold starting soil. killed some slow moving clones and upped the rest. big flowering moves to come, they should have already happened, but VIPARSPECTRA HAS DELAYED MY SHIPMENT BY 3 WEEKS!!! So to say im annoyed is under phrasing things. I'm expermenting with coast of maine soil vs ffof

I feel like I’m off the rails entering week 10! I’m definitely on trichome watch for Rachel. Chandler still has a few weeks more. But I noticed a significant decline in leaf health in Rachel particularly. I have several suspects: My low ph problems are coming to bite me big time. I did have some poor watering practices week before last as well (I was sick and they went thirsty too long). I just hope I can careen this and stick a somewhat decent landing, come on weed gods, be the wind in my sails! Haha

Plant 1 has 2 sets of cotyledon leaves. Which is a neat mutation. Anyone else grow stardawg and seen this? I really tried getting the temperature up a little more this week. Worked a little too well and things coulda went south quick. Thankfully everything’s good. I do not have access to my grow as much as I would like? As I do not have sufficient space in my apartment for my grow, Iam forced to do so in my parents basement. Big shout out to my mom! For watering these girls for me. She actually shot some of the videos, and it is her voice you are sometimes hearing. Till next time. ✌️
