2/26 to 3/03 Veg Days 8 to 14 Week 2 Not much to talk about here. They took to the soil as expected with no issues. Feed this week was 2 cups of 6.3ph RO water twice with 4 days between and 4 days after the last feed. Feed plan next week will increase the amounts to 2.5 cups of plain-no-nute water with about 4 days between feeds. I still want to see the water run through, so if I need to use more than 2.5 cups I will. The idea is to water deep and through, but then make them search for more before the next feed, hopefuly spreading the roots out while doing it.

This grow cycle was an overall success! These Apples&Bananas gave me some trouble along the way, but I am sure they will be worth it in the smoke! They smell so gassy and are very strong.

Week 8 - Oct 26 to Nov 2nd Alright so upon reflection in Week 8 of my Chem-Bomb Auto diary it was not the best week but nothing disastrous 🙌 Random November heatwave got the apartment room up to near summer temperatures but the airflow was fine with an open tent + second fan. Crisped the tips a bit with the heat and upping the nutes. This advanced nutes stuff is very salty for a soil grow and even the small amounts reported above, split between the 4 plants, still end up getting to the fan leaves. Using Molasses and plain water feeds between nute feeds this stuff is still very touchy. The Chocolate Mint OG Autos are bigger overall plants with more stretch in the last week. A lot more bud sites but overall the buds are still smaller so hopefully it finishes strong and really plumps over the next few weeks. More in Week 9! Thanks for checking in! Drop a like and/or follow so I can return the favour 🙌 -- IG: @GlazedGrow

Harvested week 7 day 46 of flower. My 3rd time growing this strain & this was the best grow, even though she was only a foot tall, she was around 2 square feet in width & had big stacked dense colas all over her.

So for this week the training comes into play . So 1 ogkz was topped, 1 ogkz was broken , * note on the brake it was the best brake I have done , not because I am getting better at it mostly because the outer skin of the plant with the OG kz was much thicker and stronger than I'm used to so it broke quite easily. My guess is the correlation with the autoflower plays a big part in that. And 1 ogkz I just left it be . Green crack 1 kept as a mother 2 were broke 2 topped

In week 10 I have some plants, which have grown taller than the rest (canopy is appr. 80 cm high now). In order to not have to raise my lamp, I rather correct their height by 'supercropping' them. Supercropping is a technique developed by SOMA from SOMA_seeds and works VERY WELL. Instead of topping your plants (=cutting off the main stem) it is better to take the main stem between your fingers (appr. 15-20 cm form the top) and brake the fibers inside and then bend it downwords. This way the stem will stay intact and heal itself and you dont loose the main buds growing on it later. In the video above I show and explain how I supercrop a plant. The plants are now getting more and more into flowering and therefore I switch the dimmer on my SANlight EVO4-120 plants to 100% now (see in video above). The BIO NOVA nutrients are increased as well a little bit, so the plants can build big buds.

Day 35 is here. We are a week into flower and most the plants are just starting to hit that flowering stretch. I have been bending them down a little every couple days, but I need to focus on cleaning up some of the bottom branches so we can keep good air flow through the plants. Will work on that through this next week. I haven't done a water change, just been topping off the reservoir with fresh nutrients as they drink it up. Feeding half and half maxigro and maxibloom. Will cut out the maxigro in a couple weeks when I notice their stretch slowing down. I had a plant overflow this week because the drain line is getting full of roots. I noticed a couple roots have made their way into the reservoir already. I set a pump timer to 1 minute on and 20 minutes off so they can drain properly. I would like to make it through the grow without having to mess with the drains, but we will see what happens. I will make some modifications if needed. Other than that everything is running smooth and I hope we have some little pistils to show by next week. Thanks for stopping by ✌️

Black Opium is looking faat! These colas are beasts. I'm enjoying this plant very much 😁 I definitely need to stake some more of the plant as the buds are too heavy to support the flowers. Absolutely beautiful plant, buds are super heavy, what's not to love! Here is what I did this week. 12.9.25: I watered with 2.5L of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.5 with; 💜 5ml Trace 💜 5ml Flourish PH: 6.5 PPM: 335 16.9.25: I watered with 4L of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.5 with; 💜 5ml Trace 💜 1 TSP Biosys PH: 6.5 PPM: 316 The fungus gnats have really incresed since I did a watering of the whole tent. I have some more sticky traps set out, and I will not water for several days. Once it has dried the top soil, I will add some more Diatomaceous Earth to the top 5cm. Thank for checking in this week, best of luck to everybody participating in the contest! Have fun, keep growing, see you in the comments 😁 💚 ✌️ 🧡 👌
