11/15 - Day 43 - I've changed the light schedule on the timer from 20/4 to 18/6. I will be heading out of town for 10 days on December 25th and so I'll need to harvest and hang to dry by the 24th at the latest. I've read in a few forums that decreasing the lights on/lights off ratio can speed flower maturation on auto-flowers. The other growers also mentioned that the decrease in light also reduces yields, but on such a tight timeline I'd trade total yield for more fully ripened buds any day of the week. Would certainly be interested if anybody has experience/knowledge that contradicts what I've read. Plants stretched another 2 inches in the last 24 hours putting them 22 inches from the light. I still have room to raise my light another 2 inches, but if these girls stretch more than 6 more inches they'll be < 18 inches from the light which I'm assuming would cause light burn based on the research i've done on this 600W ViparSpectra reflector series. Here's hoping they don't stretch more than 6 inches from here. 11/17 Day 45 - Haircut day. Left a few fan leaves on the shorter/lower shoots, but took almost everything else. Tallest tops had stretched another 4 inches in the past 48 hours, and were 18 inches from the light. I raised the light the final 2 inches I had available, which places it back to 20 inches from the tallest bud sites. Hopefully the haircut I gave the plants slows down the stretch, but either way it looks like I'll have to do a lot of retraining before I head out of town tomorrow for 5 days. 11/18 Day 46 - Fed nutes. Cal mag + advanced nutrients (micro, grow, bloom), and MKP. 4 Litres of water per plant. A lot of runoff in the saucers, but I'm out of town for the next 5 days so I'm leaving it to be absorbed throughout the week.

Sorry for the absence guys from the sixth week the plants began to mature a little prematurely and in advance and I was engaged in two weeks of harvesting and tight hassle because in practice they were all or almost all seeds. With most I still managed to stop at the first ones that form on low flowers, with others like Fullgas I managed to seem not to have even one. Growing FUllgas was an honor for a truly fantastic and voracious plant to grow. It has bloomed well, quickly and is truly fragrant. I'm not very familiar with terpenes yet but this one has the predominance of my favorite. Wow what a smell. I did a toppin g at 16 buds and they all grew together, some barely kept standing at the end but here we are, the young lady is beautiful, clean and dry in the room. I would like to recommend it to everyone. Music of the week Bus to Bus to keep me active and operational during operations.

Ma première session 2020 après 7 années d'abstinence. | ~ MAJ - 2020/11/07 ----------------------------------- Enfin ! Je vous présente l'espace de culture (cf: WELCOME - Presentation of the Secret Box [Inedit] + CAMERA - 2020/11/07) 👽 | ~ MAJ - 2020/11/06 ----------------------------------- (cf. photo #7) Oh ?! Y en a une qui pointe le bout de son nez on dirait ^^ A moins que ca soit une goutte d'eau 😅 | ~ MAJ - 2020/11/05 ----------------------------------- (cf. photo #6) Ajout d'un système d'arrosage automatique. | ~ MAJ - 2020/11/04 ----------------------------------- (cf. photo #5) Suite au problème de température j'ai réduit de 20cm la planche de support de l'espace plante mère. | ~ MAJ - 2020/11/03 ----------------------------------- Comme attendu, la germination est complète 4/4 :) Suite à ce succès fulgurant, j'ai décidé de planter les grains dans ces petits cubes (cf. photo #1) que j'ai baigné préalablement dans de l'eau de Ph_6. J'ai du me munir d'une solution Ph Down de T.A Terra Aquatique afin de diminuer le Ph_8/9 initial de l'eau. Mise en place de la serre dans la boite secrète (cf. photo #2 & #3). (cf. photo #2) Bien évidemment au moment de la mise en place de la serre je constate que la hauteur lampe / plante est extrêmement juste.. Je dois donc remédier à ce problème (Facilement corrigeable je vous rassure). - La température est élevé, mais ce point n'est pas un mystère à ce stade. - L'hygrométrie est nettement inférieur que prévu (cf. photo #3) Je vous présente l'environnement de ma Secret Box. Ce nom lui va très bien, examinez de plus prêt son environnement. Un placard à balais hyper discret (presque.... Vrrrooooommm) PS : Photos prochainement ;) J'ai fais un paris avec ma copine : - [ Une culture 89% autonome ] Pour partir en weekends & vacances - [ Discrète ] Ses parents dorment 3 jours / 3 mois à l'appartement - [ Arrêter d'acheter aux mecs du quartier ] - [ Que je me fasse plaisir !!!! ] (cf. photo #4) Et voici une photo prise via camera ip/wifi absolument pas sécure xD Je dois également remédier à ce problème.. ------------------------ Matériels de ventilation/climat/odeur : - Extracteur PrimaKlima 220/400 m3/h (Toujours au top! ) - 2x Fan clip 15cm PVC ADVANCED STAR (Je pense que les ventilateurs ne sont pas efficaces, nous verrons par la suite) - 1x Ventilateur INOX Brasseur 25cm - Gaine doublé ALU/PVC 125mm - BullFilter 125mm 300m3/h (Filtre à charbon, espérons qu'il tienne) - Intracteur Winflex VKO 100mm 105 m3/H (Il est branché mais pas allumé) Matériels de Germination : - Led Eco Cro 100w - ADVANCED STAR (ou) CFL 125w (LED utilisé à ce jour) - Réflecteur basic (Un simple réflecteur inutile. Je pense le customs pour optimiser l'espace des plantes mères) - Serre Platinium lowcost (Je ne recommande pas, trop souple et fragile) Matériel de VEG/FLO : - HP/HPS 250w - SuperPlant Red - Ballast digital Super Plant HPS-MH-CMH avec dimmer - 250/315CMH/400/600/660W (Evolutif évidemment 😉) Engrais Canna Terra StarterKit - Terra Vega 250ml - Terra Flores 1L - Rhizotonic 250ml - Cannazym 125ml - Canna Boost 125ml - Canna PK 13/14 50ml - Ph Down Terreaux : - Gold Label Special Mix Light Cro/Flo

All's well that ends well. The last 2 weeks there is only purified water and enzymes. Temperatures down. Humidity down. And slowly starve and die of thirst. Always a little difficult for me - saying goodbye! 👋 I make tea from the sugar leaves and also like to use them for cooking. Flash-frozen, they remain nice and fresh and aromatic. Have to sleep now, but see You tomorrow, sleep well 😴 take care, stay safe & bee 🐝 positive… Peace ☮️

Wow what a week this has been, the plants have all undergone fair dramatic changes. A real flurry of leaf yellowing, pistil darkening/curling, and bug swelling. The smell is really coming along now, I think we're really quite close to harvest. On the assumption that pre-flowering was two weeks, this strain should be ready at the end of week seven flowering, so in the case of this diary the end of week nine (i.e. one week to go!). Pistils are about 70-80% amber, and the lower pistils on buds have started curling inward. Trichomes look to me to be something like 10% clear 80% Milky 10% White. I have smoke tested a small bud off the lower part of plant 3 today after quick-drying overnight in the airing cupboard, taking into consideration the obvious chlorophyll from the fast dry, the high was much closer to what I am expecting than the last smoke test. It came on at the normal pace, was quite effective, and lasted a good while. I am really hoping I can navigate my way through the next process, as I feel quite close now to having some home grown bud for the first time. The plants are being well watered this evening with just water, and this will be the last time that I water them until harvest. I will continue to monitor these daily, I intend to harvest at the first sign of any amber trichome. Advice and comments welcomed. P.S. Exciting news! My order from Green House Seeds arrived today for my next diaries! :)

Diese Woche habe ich die 160w Lampe mit einer 50w Lampe getauscht. Die Pflanze wird jetzt entladen und nach zwei Tagen bleibt das Licht aus. Dieses Mal werde ich die Pflanze 48h im Substrat im dunklen stehen lassen, daraufhin die Erde abdecken und die Pflanze mit samt Wurzelballen kopfüber aufhängen. Nach dem letzten Lichtzyklus wird die Pflanze zusätzlich von allen Fächerblättern befreit.

Hello Bros&Sis! Ciao!😊 this time I've decided to made a video update, from the start of the week to the finish, we're gonna see some BIG differences! (The longest is from the end) About the ladies: Girls in coco Royal AK- she's drinking every single drop op solution and has literally exploded! I'm really happy about her training (top/lst/hst). A very strong strain. OG Kush- I don't get this girl, she's definitely not an heavy drinker. Speedy Chile FF- when I re-potted her into 6lt pot, some of my Bros hoped for a Baobab, what do you think?😂 (has some mutations, has a growth of 3 leaves and then 2 branches have joined together and the other has grown normally) Ladies in Soil: UK Cheese auto- I've broke a branch due to heavy crop. Lesson learned. Pink Doc CBD auto- she's growing good, finally! The only thing I'm worried about is that she will not grow so much, because switch is near. Candy Kush Express- A really nice lady, not too tall, good side branches and she take everything with no care less (one of the most "broken" in the tent) Special Kush#1- She likes her new pot, but there's something wrong (see leaves) maybe related to VPD or RU? I've used different techniques on this ladies, but the one I like the most is cropping the branches and the main stems and also broke the branches where meets the stems, to give'em more power, and more "space" for nutrients transports in sight of bloom! That's all mate, we will see soon for the next update! Ciao!😙 (hey @Growdiaries if you want to use my video, feel free to do it, but please, don't change the music, it's already on YT and for CC use)

Esa familia, nuestras crazy cookies están algo sobre fertilizadas y por ello le practicamos un lavado de raíces para eliminar los nutrientes sobrantes. Ph controlado unos días sin regar la próxima semana y veremos que tal avanzan , floración lenta imagino que por culpa de la sobrefertilización aunque tiene solución fumetillas.

26.09.21. У Халка очередная неделя прошла отлично, начал растягивать боковые ветви, в дальнейшем будет Top макцшки или Fim подрезка, не решил. На выходе показывает небольшое завышение ppm и снижение ph, что говорит о том, что девчонка перевела и надо бы полить водичкой с минимальным количеством удобрения. Всем удачи, жду в гости, пишите комментарии друзья, лайк это здорово, но мнение человека неоценимо👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿🌱 28.09.21 немного потренировал Халкушу, главный стебель как из железа, толстый и не тянется, через пару дней топну макушку. 30.09.21 мне очень нравится развитие Халка, потенциал у растения очень серьёзный, о чем говорит размеры листьев и толщина ствола.

Flowering time! These girls have been giving me nothing but ease so far. A little bit of defoliation here and there for the next weeks focusing on maximizing the bud potential. Hope fully I get some monsters!

I apologize for this diary not being thorough. I haven't had the extra time to fully document, or even give this grow the attention it deserves. Now that I have a couple grows under my belt, I feel more comfortable and know what to expect. I wanted to try and keep things as simple as possible, so I decided to try the Lucus Formula and only use Maxibloom through the full life cycle. For the first few weeks, I used nothing but filtered tap water, and once the plants had a few set of leaves, I began with a half feeding. After a week, I bumped to the full 7g/gal of the nutes and have continued that to this point, week 11. One plant looks to be at least a week closer to being ready to chop. I plan to flush after this week and cut the larger one, and then maybe one last feeding for the other. I think I will only grow 1 plant at a time going forward as I always have an issue with keeping both healthy and on pace. And LST works great in this setup.
