The plant has settled in now, and it's beginning to grow faster now. The stem isn't as thick as that from the Banana Kush Auto I grow parallel, but thanks to the added silica, super solid and rigid. LST doesn't seem like a great option, will probably try FIMing, or maybe Topping. I'll add photos later, that'll show the result of this decision process. UPDATE: I decided to FIM the Fat Monkey, to increase side branch production. ANOTHER UPDATE: I might've taken off a little too much when FIMing, which turns it into topping, I guess.

Do-Si-dos auto is doing well. She had been growing really good. I did a solution change on her 2 days ago. I switched her to blooming nutrition then. She is looking ready to stretch and flower. Thank you Zamnesia seeds, Athena, and Medic Grow. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

Three of the four autos popped on day 4 and the fourth plant popped on day 5. Watered 1.5 oz when I planted in final smart pot size 3 gal. Watered 2 oz on days 3,5, & 6 when it looked dry on top. pH at 6-6.5 before I got a meter.

This week I've been pulling the top fan leaves to stop the plant growing taller and to allow the side branches to catch up. I also started feeding them. I will probably repot and switch to flower next week now they've all outgrown their mutations.

If you're just joining us, we have these photo-dependant ladies vegging in our 48"x 24" VIVOSUN tent. I have been doing a lot of heavy defoliation and pruning the past week. I also made a few upgrades in the bloom tent and moved a few of the cultivars into bloom under 12/12. Also, I realized my BlueLab Conductivity Meter has the option to switch to EC. Since EC is the most accurate way to measure the nutrient concentration in a solution, I will now be measuring and reporting EC readings rather than PPM. I am honestly super stoked about every single plant in this run. That said, I think I am probably most impressed by the 🍭🎅🏻 COTTON CANDY CANE lady from Emerald Triangle Seeds. She is incredibly vigorous. She was started nearly a month after all the others (except the 🦍🍪 GORILLA x COOKIES) and has already caught up to some of the taller plants in the run. Special thanks to those guys for sending the freebies for me to try out! Definitely want to try more from this breeder! She is almost a month behind the other plants and is almost as tall as the tallest cultivars started on 8/10. All in all, everything looks great. Any advice, suggestions, or constructive criticisms are always welcome. Now, for the weekly break down! •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• THIS WEEK'S BREAK DOWN •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 9/30 - Day 52 for Majority of the Garden - 🍭🎅🏻 COTTON CANDY CANE: Day 26 - 🦍🍪 GORILLA x COOKIES: Day 39 °°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°° 🎥 FILMING DAY! 🎥 •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 10/1 - Day 53/Day1 of Bloom for Majority of the Garden - 🍭🎅🏻 COTTON CANDY CANE: Day 27/Day of Bloom - 🦍🍪 GORILLA x COOKIES: Day 40 °°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°° 📸 PHOTOSHOOT! 📸 🎥 FILMING DAY! 🎥 👩‍💻 UPGRAYED! 👩‍💻 - Added a BOTANICARE 48" x 48" low-tide flood tray on top of six 4" tall cinder-blocks with a low-profile motorcycle oil-pan for the water to drain into beneath the flood tray. - I transplanted eleven cultivars into black 12" tall Active Aqua brand 12" x 12" square pots and inserted 3' fiberglass garden stakes into the center of the rootball near the main stem of each plant. Each stake goes to the bottom of the 12" pot. All transplants have nice solid root balls due to being slightly rootbound. I knew I'd likely run short on premixed soil, so I decided to transplant the largest plants first. Of course, I ran out of soil after 11 plants were transplanted. It seems like I used a lot more soil than usual with this method and in tgese pots. - I mixed a new batch of soil using the same recipe. I will give the five smallest gorls a few more days to grow taller. That will give this batch of soil a little time to innoculate. - I moved the 11 transplants into the 96" x 48"bloom tent under 12/12 lighting schedule. 🚿FEED DAY!🚿 She received approximately 1 gallon of solution.

Was bummed out plant got red mites at the end but that’s fine, it didn’t not impact the grow (or at least I didn’t notice.) Harvested at the end of the 6th week of flower. Trichomes had already started turning amber due to heat degradation (couch lock party) what trichomes that were not dust ridden or amber was milky so I’d say it’s ready. Choosing the best time to harvest is still puzzling for me due to the fact that this is my 4th time harvesting cannabis. Thanks for reading... more info to come ...TBC

Hello Diary. Fourth week of flowering and the Hulkberries look great, two more weeks and we will have a harvest. 😎 The branches started to bend from the weight of the flowers, so after taking photos in the box I put wooden sticks to stabilize it. Hulkberry # 1 which is much more branched than # 2, got three rods because I had to connect almost every branch. At Hulkberry # 2, one rod was enough, and I tied it lightly around with a rope. 💪 The flowers look great and there are a lot of them, on the lower branches they are not so developed, but I expected that considering the shade from the upper branches and the distance of light. I’m not very great with descriptions, so I have photos that describe it a lot better than I will in words. 😉 Earlier this week I inserted two dehumidifiers that have some gel in them that gradually absorbs moisture, I can’t say anything drastic has happened, the humidity in the air is still higher than I would like at this stage. Two circular fans and a large exhaust fan that I put on maximum is all I can do at the moment. The temperature is also high in the box, it is around 28 degrees but sometimes it rises up to 29 degrees, but genetically they belong to a warmer climate, so it might suit them warmer. They look happy. 😎 As we get closer to the end, I decided this was the last week that they got BioBizz, so from now on they’re just on the water. I also made a little effort to take more photos. How could they not when they are so beautiful. 😍 Let’s take a look at what this week looked like. 02/08/2020 - Day 45. Watering. This time I watered only with water, I did not add BioBizz food. I still regulated the water at p.H 6.5 with Plagron’s, Lemon Kick. Each time I prepare 7 lit. water and with that I water all three plants evenly. 06/08/2020 - Day 49. Photographing and watering. Last feeding, I added BioBizz on schedule for week 7. In 7 lit. water I added BioBizz and adjusted p.H to 6.5. That's all for this week. The plants are beautiful, they smell great and now I can’t wait for the end. See you soon.

HARVEST@DAY84!!! Took way longer than i expected to finish but it was worth it i was going actually going to give it a couple more days to wait for some more brown trichomes but she started to get a few nanna's so i cut her down. i could not tell how chunky the buds really were underneath all of the leaves. thiccness from the main colas all the way down and alot of frost. Smells heavenly. chemical and gassiness. Will absolutely be growing the rest of the seeds i have next time around. She was more sensitive to the light and i topped her a little early are my only complaints. i didnt have a big enough scale so couldnt weigh her wet. will post dried weight. its a nice yeild for me being my first grow. she smells dank Super happy!!!!

4 of the big ones on Overdrive now! 🙌 There may be some foxtailing going on so we're flushing these a little earlier than the others, trichomes look cloudy, reduced light to 60% for now until there out of the tent and in the dark period. Then will be back on full for the others. Not long now. Smells epic! 👃💨👃💨💨👃💨

Day 36 First day of the final week of vegetation. Originally I was planning on vegging another few weeks but since the right girl already has a bigger bush than a 70s pornstar I'll flip soon, before space will be an issue. Preferably I'd veg the left girl longer as she is still lagging in size but it's too big of a mission to set up my second tent and move her over there. Super easy day today, all I did was to give the right girl 3 liters of pH 6.1 water as well as tightening a few LST wires. Day 37 All I did today was to tighten some LST wires, removing some more leaves down low on the plants, and watered the girls with pH 6.6 water. The left girl got around 2 liters and the right one only got a liter since she wasn't all that dry considering that she was watered yesterday. I also started brewing some compost tea to feed to the girls tomorrow. I used the same recipe as previously: worm castings, rock dust, biochar, lime, bentonite, neem meal, kelp meal, and some molasses. Day 38 Open the tent today and was met by a surprise - one of the tops on the left girl had broken off. I tightened the LST wires yesterday and all was ok when I closed up the tent but I guess that I had tightened a bit too much so the top eventually broke. Sigh. Wasn't planning on topping again this week but yeah, gotta roll with it. Maybe I move one of the girls to the second tent after all. We'll see. All I did in the tent today was to feed the girls some compost tea. Each girl got around 0.5-liter tea as a foliar spray and then an additional 2.5 liters in the pot. True to form I naturally forgot to pH the tea. No idea why I always seem to forget to pH my compost tea but I really should make an effort to remember it next time. Day 39 All I did today was to give the right girl 3 liters of pH 6.6 water. She is so much bigger than the small plant so she drinks a lot more. Currently, I'm watering around 10% of the pot volume per day. I'm pretty sure I will move out the petite girl and put her in my small drying tent and keep the right beast in my main tent as I'm kinda curious to see the yield I will get from her when she can spread out properly. I have already ordered another grow light and it should arrive tomorrow. Day 40 Today was a busy day in the tent as one of the girls moved out to her new home. Before I go into details, I should take a step back and explain my setup. I have this tiny tent that is 40x40x120 cm big (16x16x48 inches) that I use as a drying tent. It has a circulation fan, an extraction fan, a carbon filter, a temp/humidity monitor, and an inkbird humidity controller to control everything. I have been considering turning it into a small grow tent to fool around and see what I can grow in such a small space. I've always been fascinated by small challenges, to see what you can accomplish within strictly set (and small!) boundaries — both in size and in budget. I was planning on setting up this tent after the summer, but as I'm running out of space in my main tent, it seems like a good idea to do it now instead. The only thing the tent lacks to start growing is a light, and I already have a ViparSpectra P600 light, but it is currently used for my chilis and tomatoes while they are waiting to move outside. So I bought a new low-budget light to use with the veggies and move in the ViparSpectra light into the tent. The P600 is also a budget light, but I'm hopeful that it will still work well in such a small space. After putting in the light in the tent and measuring the PAR level, it looks like the ViparSpectra is more than up to the challenge as I had to dim the light not to fry the canopy below. The entire build with everything in it (tent, light, fans, carbon filter, etc.) is well below 250 euros. So about half of what one of the lights in my main tent costs. lol. Once the light was installed in the tent, it was time to move the left girl. First, I carefully removed the scrog net, and it was pretty easy as the plants hadn't grown into the net yet. The small tent has a tiny door that it was a challenge to get the girl in but with some help from my girlfriend and some brute force; the plant went in. It is very tight in there, and I will have to do some selective pruning for sure, but I'll do that over the weekend. In the main tent, I moved the girl into the center and put back the scrog net. I will have to train her further to fill up the space entirely, so maybe I do another week of veg after all. I'll work on her over the weekend as well and see where I'm at on Monday. I adjusted the lights to read similar PAR levels at canopy level in both tents, but once I go into flower, I'll bump up the main tent as I have CO2 in there, so the girl should be able to handle more light and heat. Finally, I gave each girl 3 liters of pH 6.1 water. I had to use the ultrawide lens on my phone to capture each plant in the photos. Fun to finally use that lens :) Day 41 Today I moved the small tent back into its stealth location, another IKEA wardrobe. There's no real risk that anyone would discover my grow but I still prefer to keep everything as hidden as possible. Watered the girls, each one with 3 liters of pH 6.5 water. I also removed all LST wires from both plants but attached some new ones for the right girl. (I'm going to keep calling them left and right even though they aren't in the same tent anymore.) Finally, I defoliated the bottom of the left girl. That's it. All in all, a really chilled day. Day 42 Today was the last day of week 6 of vegetation. I know I said earlier this week that this would be the last week of vegetation, but I might veg the right girl another week. To give her a bit more time to fill out the tent. I'll decide that tomorrow, but in any case, I'll flip the left girl as her tent is so tiny, and I don't want her to get any larger. The left girl is now 38 cm tall, and the right girl is 46 cm tall. The right girl got 4 liters of pH 6.1 water today as she is sooo thirsty right now, but the left girl didn't need any today, so I left her alone. I started brewing some compost tea (worm castings, rock dust, biochar, lime, bentonite, neem meal, kelp meal, and molasses) as I want to do one final foliar feed tomorrow before sending the girls into flower.
