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.

Everything is doing well and fattening up smell is getting more intense which is a good thing. Gonna let them go for another 3-4 weeks. Hopefully chopping down either Christmas Day or New Years. Enjoy the video

10/5/19 Day 43. Removed a few fan leaves and lowered the height of the lamp to flowering distance. The plant is just starting to show pistals. No feed today. Think all is good. 11/5/19 Day 44. Fed 1.5L. 3.0ml/L coco A and 3.0ml coco B, 1.0ml silicon, 0.5ml cal mag, 1.5ml boost. Ph 6.0 Ec2.1 run off 0.4L ph 6.4 ec 2.3 So far so good really, if anyone thinks I'm doing anything wrong then give me a shout. 12/5/19 Fed 2L. 3.5ml/L coco A and 3.5ml coco B, 1ml silicon, 0.5ml cal mag, 1.5ml boost. Ph5.9 Ec2.5 run off 1.5L Ph 6.3 Ec2.3 13/5/19 Day 46 fed 1L. 3.0ml/L coco a and b, 1ml silicon, 0.5ml cal mag, 1.5ml boost. Ph6.0 Ec2.3. run off 0.5L Ph6.4 Ec 2.5 Going to start reducing Coco a and b, then adding Pk9/18 soon. 14/5/19 Day 47. No feed today, just did a little more LST and leaf tucking. Think that's it for the LST. May release all the clamps in next few days and drop my net on it. 15/5/19 Day 48. Decided to release the plant from the LST, I have managed to get the hole canopy level with a cig box, so with it hopefully flower any day now it can stretch evenly (touch wood). Also removes a load of fan leaves. Fed 2L. 2.5ml/L coco A&B, 1ml silicon, 1ml cal mag, 1.5ml boost. Ph6.0 Ec2.1 Run off 0.7L Ph6.4 Ec2.9. yikes that's a big jump for my run off on the Ec. So fed again but 1L and changed A&B from 2.5ml/L to 2.0ml/L. Final Ph6.0 Ec1.9 Run off 0.6L Ph 6.3 Ec2.5 Going to try and get the run off down a bit more 2mo. Looks like I might have to feed once a day from this point onwards. 16/5/19 Day 49. Week hasn't gone as expected, I thought pistils would be showing by now. I am going to leave it released from the LST for a while and apply when it starts to get uneven again. I do think I have got the canopy quite even. Fed 2L. 2ml/L coco A&B, 1ml silicon, 0.25ml cal mag, 1.5ml boost. Ph 5.9 Ec 1.6 Run off 1.4 L Ph 6.3 Ec 2.6. This is quite high which I think is caused by my boosting agent. I might ditch sumo boost and try something else.

Power plant xl, una variedad sativa, es de temprana floración. 3/3 unidades, algo tardías en cuanto al desprendimiento del caparazón de la semilla. Lo demás todo correcto.

For week 2 I did couple of changes: Water change in order to add TPS Silica Lower the light to 16 inches / 30% light / I’m getting a PPFD of 300/400 Both genetics are wronging super fast, the only thing is the COCO FRESH when there is no light the leafs kind of go down, once they get light they go back up again, wondering is that’s how they are or if there is a problem, I will ask around here, if anyone knows why I will appreciate all the info. This week I should be able to switch the light from the G8600W to the G1000W, I’m moving the 8600 to a 4x4 with another genetic. I will also get the T7 AC humidifier and I will change also the in line fan to AC, I want to control everything with my phone (AC infinity app)

Just getting started on the right foot. Coco and bags sterilized and flushed thoroughly with 0.7EC at 6.0pH solution. Will transplant tomorrow once the coco drains down a bit. Plants look great and excited to push down the accelerator. 4/2 - transplanted into 3 gal and watered in. 4/4 - Reservoir cleaned, sanitized, and online. Switched to tap water (0.3EC) and nutes at 0.8EC for total of 1.1. Ph 5.9. New feed pump installed (no more getting electrocuted when I put my hand in the bucket. YAY!) and 5" watering rings installed. PPFD 550. 4/5 - really quite chuffed. PPFD to 600 and they are looking great. Moved Zoey up 2" to match canopy height. 4/6 - switched Silica Boost to foliar spray at rate of 40ml / gal in RO water, pH to 5.8

Week 2 for our Apricot from the fastbuds family All looks good and the buds are forming real quick, we continue for now with master root and master bloom, next week we start to add some more addictives Some plants had a little to much nutrients but we corrected the dosis and continue with a little less bloom nutrients! For the rest all good!!

Hey now, I hope everyone is having a relaxing weekend. The ladies are getting close, all trichomes are white and milky with very little amber, so I decided to start the flush today, and I will harvest the Apple Fritter and Durban Thai X C99 next Saturday. I did harvest the Donuts and Cherry Gar-See-Ya and I will post some pics and a smoke report once cured. Thanks for stopping by and Blaze On....

How is it growing, my fun(k) loving friends? ***INFO*** For more on my setup, why it was monster cropped, and how I made the canopy, see Germination page and subsequent weeks. They had 48 hrs of darkness, and the time has come to say goodbye to my friends. I thanked them again, spend some time with them, and under the sound of Amazonian shaman's harvest and healing songs (will post link), asked for their gifts, and apologized for taking their lives. I do this while in contact with the plants, touching, smelling them, observing every detail, no thoughts, just in the present moment. I feel emotional as I do this and remember how they were a companion, a source of distraction in a time of worry, sadness, and loss. How they already comforted me and kept me company in a time of painful insights about honesty, commitment, and staying true to myself. I thank them again for their wisdom and gifts, viva Santa Maria, viva Planta Maestra, may the mother of all beings give us healing and protection. And I proceed with the harvest as I visualize my intentions with every cut. Branch by bud laden branch is tenderly untangled from the scrog net, taken with a clean-cut and immediately hung upside down in the grow tent, which will now double as a curing and drying room. A couple more weeks and we will have the final cured and dried weight. More photos and movies will follow, this is where we are so far!! Thank you for checking in on our journey, all the love, support, and compliments were a true motivation, a very needed distraction, and guidance for me and for Sunshine. Big hug, lots of love and take care! ***UPDATE*** The final weigh-in is ready. I hadn't seen them in a week, because of my vacation. The humidifier I set up, had failed. So the grow had dried in 7 days, what I wanted to be 14 at least. Thankfully, its Sativa ancestry shines through, the smoke isn't harsh, the buds a sticky and smelly, no hay smell at all. We ended up at 246 grams, excluding a shitload of larf and popcorn bud, totaling at 310 grams all in, a first at a gram per watt for me, but for the Zambeza seed competition, I stated we would only weigh the quality bud. Overall I'm very happy!! Guessed weights in the competition: - @hashy : 0 grams - @MrHyde : 198 grams - @JamMAKEcan : 224 grams - @TrickOrTrip : 260 grams - @Greeneysgrow: 312.5 grams - @Ohey_fu_kyu: 350 grams - @Puffs4Pipes: 385 grams - @Hempkid : 605 grams - @DoDrugs420 : 621 grams TrickorTrip was closest!! Congratulations!!! I will be contacting you to get the seeds with you!! Thanks for playing to all the others and better luck next time, I will give away some seeds again!! Summary: Cost of setup: 850 euro Cost of nutrients and soil: 125 euro Cost of seeds: None they were cloned Cost of power: 150 euros in the power bill Total cost: 1125,-- for setup and this run. I smoke for medical reasons and it's used for ritual and healing purposes, never to be sold, as it loses its magical properties. Should I have to buy Gelato of this quality at the dispensary that I frequent, it would cost me at least € 15,-- per gram. 246 x 15 = 3690 euros. also, 49 car rides of 25 miles there and back, 250 euros in gas saved. Overall conclusion: I think we can call this a succes. Made back my investment, my cost per grow and we saved the environment. Thanks for all the love, tips and support! Couldnt have done this on my first indoor LED grow, without you!! Wish you were here to smoke a fat one, some good conversation about our hobby and now... I'm hungry.... See you on the next one!! Hugs Bud!!! PS. Should you be interested in Shamanism or Teacherplants by anything I mentioned.

Final update: Very happy to announce that this dairy had won the sixth place best diary of August 2021. My prize came in yesterday and I'm very happy!! Thank you Growdiaries!! Thank you Fastbuds!!! Thank you all my grow buddies here for the love and support!! Hope to see you all, maybe at a future Growdiaries Meet and Greet? Wouldn't that be a lovely idea, per country and a yearly one on a different continent every year? The Growdiaries Conference. Would be a great Hemp growers fair... I'll keep dreaming and light another one... Big hug BioBuds

Day 56 Flowering: This week has been a great week to understand the difference between strains. now close to finishing , it is clear to see how different the bids can look to each other dependant on lineages too. Six shooter has really surprised me with her rapid gains in bud girth. She has seemed to be a lot smaller and somehow stunted for most of the grow. This week has changed her completely, even down to her lower buds which also look a lot thicker than a few days ago. with approx 12 days to go, she could be one of the contenders for yield. She is also very frosty looking now with a nice sweet hit to her. Strawberry Pie is really starting to colour her buds up now and even though they are not joined up colas , each clump looks to be fairly dense and heavy. The buds under direct light at the top look less chunky than the lowers with her too which is a first for me. The light is penerrating lower than I thought due to the structure she has. There are some nice looking lowers just putting new pistils out so she may go a little longer than her 8 weeks stated. Mexican Airline is my secret favourite this run. Hwr bids are stunning looking spiky ,bursts of colour now and with a little longer to go , I wonder how she will look with even more ripening and fattening out. She is a very tall plant and i will train better for the next time I grow this strain. I have had to support a couple of the limbs now as they want to fall with the weight of the buds . I am on standby with more yoyo's if I need them. lol These have been a pleasure to grow as expected and I am now popping some Fast buds Cream cookies auto ( x2) to run next. I dont doubt they will be great to grow. be safe and free growmies.
