Since I'm playing catch up with documenting my first grow cycle, I'm going to combine weeks and just give updates. I mentioned in the last weekly comment about adding the wicking bases and how that can be potentially problematic. Well here's where I noticed the issue but mostly with the Orange Sherbet sativa. I started noticing changes in color and leaves that didn't look good to me. Fortunately, I have a couple of great friends who also grow and have been able to take advantage of their knowledge and experience along the way. I highly recommend doing this if you have friends who also grow. Anyway, I had one of my friends come over and it was determined that the issue was due mainly to overwatering. We decided that with the wicking bases in addition to the humidity level in the tent, that the plant was staying too wet. Catching this quickly and addressing it is huge with autos since they tend to be more delicate that regular plants (as I understand things anyway). To address the overwatering issue, I immediately stopped using the wicking bases and let the plants dry out for about a week. I did no watering at all for the week but kept the humidifier going. That really helped correct what was going on. I then decided that I was no longer going to use the wicking bases at all and only do top watering. You'll see as I move forward with documenting this grow cycle, that I changed my mind again on this once the plants went into flower. But hey, what do you expect, this was my first ever grow.

I've turned the light up to 35000 lux. Up'd the bloom to 1.5ml/l. There still stretching and could do with more room but there doing well 😎

Die vierte Woche der Blüte hat begonnen. Der Platz im Zelt ist mehr als ausgeschöpft und die Pflanzen küssen fast die Lampe. Ich denke der Stretch ist vorbei, ich hoffe es zumindest. 🙏🏻 Diese Woche startet mit etwas Bio PK 5-8 von Biotabs. Die Blüten und die anliegenden Blätter fangen an zu glitzern. 💎 Ich habe dem Wassertank meines Autopot Systems einen Luftstein hinzugefügt. Wird das einen großen Effekt bringen? - keine Ahnung. Kann es schaden? - ich denke nicht.

Hey everyone! Hope you're all doing amazing! TickTockCroc is back for another grow! ┏(^0^)┛ Last time, I did a Fastbuds Girl Scout Cookies grow in my closet using a small pot. Yielded 22g dry weight (lol). Didn't do any ph monitoring or temperature control until later. This time... I'm determined to do it better! For this grow I will be doing: 2 x Fastbuds Girl Scout Cookies 2 x Fastbuds Gelato I AM DOING A SEPARATE DIARY FOR EACH STRAIN. THIS DIARY WILL ONLY BE UPDATING PROGRESS WITH THE GIRL SCOUT COOKIES! For this set-up, I decided to get a 1.2m x 1.2m x 2.0m tent and a carbon filter with fan. Also using fabric pots instead of plastic. For lights I'm using my old 600W Viper LED. I love this set-up!! This diary is starting on Day 7 from seed for the GSC. They just got moved to the tent yesterday (had to wait for it in the mail, got excited and germinated seeds too soon lol) and so they were in the closet until then. There has been no fan to circulate air or remove heat, and I think that's why the first set of leaves are curling a bit. Annoyingly, I have to wait for distilled water to arrive in the mail so I can calibrate my PH meter, so have not been able to ph adjust water. It has had one watering of evian water so far, so hopefully thats OK. I am using BioBizz Light Mix soil and using BioBizz nutrients. I will update which specific nutrients when I can. Take care for now, folks! *EDIT* DAY 10 UPDATE: I've uploaded a day 10 video update! So today is day 10 and I fed them their first feed yesterday. I've added the nutrient details to the diary. They seem to be LOVING it. I also noticed some pale spots on some leaves - perhaps exterior nute burn as I splashed the leaves by accident. We'll see.

This is her last week! WHAT A STUNNER! . She just got an ice flush and was flushed with plain water all week. The fade is coming in strong. She is a beast for a lady growing in a 3 gallon pot. Soaked in all that light and took the nutes like a champ. Sort of disappointed that I only have one of these seeds! I got her on a trade! And didn’t clone. The buds are slightly airy—- but common for a haze. The resin is ON POINT—- she is very sticky! The now is a sweet berry musk almost. And the bud production has been fantastic without any training at all! Update next week!!! Cannot wait!! ✌️🏻💚🌿

In week 8 iv come to the sad realization that nearly all of the plants are at different stages of development. Dispite all the seeds being germinated at the same time. So iv had to take them off the wilma systems and am feeding them manually and there all on different diets. Which is an absolute headache especially as there is 16 plants to tend too. I think iv bit off abit more than I can chew for my first grow I maybe should have started with a couple of plants. I think the large wilma setups are designed for clones really so you know they are all going to progress and eat the same amount at once. It's not for autos . There all looking healthy though:)

13.04.2025 wie ich schon mehrfach erwähnte die pflanze ist riesig, deshalb heute ein " ganzkörpervideo" der Dame😱😂 die buds schwellen, und ein paar Blätter werden gelb- ich würde sagen noch 3 Wochen? also irgendwas um den Dreh rum sie duftet sehr fruchtig, blumig- bisher noch ohne den typischen " überreifen" touch wir werden sehen.😘 heute gab es zusätzlich bio PK 5/8 , da die Lady echt riesig ist, und das gut vertragen kann bisher gab es nur die gelisteten Produkte xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Ich gehe mit der "Just Add Water"- Strategie von Biotabs- Zusätzlich nehme ich Green Senstation von Plagron bei jedem Gießen dazu Ds bedeutet ich mische alle Dünger und Pflanzenhilfstoffe in die Erde, und gieße dann nur noch mit Wasser. Das einzige, was man beachten muss ist ein niedriger EC in der Erde ( um die 1.2 -1.5)- sont wirde es den kleinen zu " heiß" ich nutze organische , torffreie Erde mit Holzkohleanteil und diversen additiven ( myco/ Bacterien etc.) und Zach habe ich " supersoil- Living soil" INFOS DES ZÜCHTERS Marke Zamnesia Seeds Eltern Gelato x Zkittlez x Ruderalis Genetik Auto Hybrid Blütentyp Autoflowering Blütezeit 9-10 wochen von der Saat bis zur Ernte THC 23% CBD Gering Innenhöhe 100cm Außenhöhe 120cm Ertrag Innenanbau Bis zu 500g/m² Ertrag Außenanbau Bis zu 150g/Pflanze Gattung Feminisiert Erhältlich Als Feminisierte Samen * Laut Züchter, wenn unter idealen Bedingungen angebaut

I put it in 48 hours of darkness thinking iw as going to chop it but when i pciked it up i just couldnt have the heart to move forward and decided to turn the lights off... (i also fed right before 48 hours of dark because i was planning on keeping growing then decided fuck it lets chop b/c of a major setback while i was on vacation but now its experiment time!!!) ... lets see what happens! ASLO recipe called for NO CAL MAG but im adding 3 ML to the mix b/c i think itll help since im in coco... elts see

se ve un incremento en tricomas, ya el olor esta muy penetrante. ademas algunos brazos se doblaron lo que provoco que las amarrara para poder sostenerlas. en la proxima semana se sacara todo nutriente que contenga nitrogeno, dando ya el engorde final.

Pure Ice cream clone is growing great. She is stretching great, and I have been doing hst on the branches to keep them out of the light. Everything is going really good at the moment. She is eating and drinking a lot. Looks like she is going to produce a good yield if everything stays going good. Thank you Pure Instinto, and Spider Farmer. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

Just got them potted. Plants are in Shock. Removed Damaged Leaves. after Day 1. New growth is standing up and Praying. Flooding every 3 hours. 9/18/2020 had a problem that looked like Cal-Mag issues & overwatering... Was using the tank labels for water marks to tell how much water was in the tank. Discovered that the marks from the factory are wrong. Measured back in exactly 100 Gallons of water and re-nuted the tank. It didn't solve my issue. So I changed the water flood schedule to see if I was overwatering or underwatering. no response from the plants except it was getting worse. After trying things for two days, I "Phoned a friend"... and they suggested to turn the lights down to 25%. BAM! after 20 min or so, there was a positive response and lifting of the leaves... Moral of the story is to start your clones and a lower light setting and gradually bring them up over time. Pics included...

Thanks to the crew at Divine Seeds for providing the seeds. Really cool of you! I'm really looking forward to the run. Unfortunately, the summer in Germany this year is really wet and cold. Not only this year, but also this year...
