Nice growing, the yield to time ratio is weaker than in the case of automatic strains, maybe it is also due to some stressful factors. but the power is huuuge. Sticky fingers โ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ˜„ thanks to all teachers

@MephistoGenetics, Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. This is my second cultivation ever and it will be fun to try a bigger space than my closet grow. First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of โ€‹โ€‹3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable environment in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 10 pcs 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. But there are no cultivation rooms to be displayed here, so I continue with what is most important. Today I have put my seeds in paper towel and hope the seeds have germinated within a few days. I am very excited to see how the new growroom will work and how this Illuminauto 21 - Sour Crinkle will turn out. Illuminauto 21 - Sour Crinkle (Grape Crinkle x Sour Crack) Two of our fastest and frostiest varieties collide to make a sweet and sour delight! Expect super frosty, compact nugs that won't be a toke for novices. Destined to be a great strain for extraction work too! Plant size - Small - Medium Cycle time - 60-65 days from sprout Indica/Sativa - 80/20 Frost level - Extra Ridiculous https://www.mephistogenetics.com/product-page/illuminauto-21-sour-crinkle ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. 2017-08-21. Started to germinate the seed. ..................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... 2017-08-23. Seed germinated and put in small pot in the humidity dome. ......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... 2017-08-27.

Hello to you who read my diary, I just want to say that I am pleased that you have chosen to check in with me and in my diary. I just want to say that I do this for myself and for a steady flow of my medicine. Everything you read and see in my diary is 100% honest and I will never distort or beautify anything here. I document my crops so that I can learn from my mistakes and also to look back at those different crops. I try to update with pictures every day and with text if something special has happened in the garden. This is my strainhunt for the best medicine and the beginning of my journey with cannabis and the cultivation of it. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-30. Cleaned the room this morning, just vacuuming and cleaning with chlorine solution. Im testing the fan to control temp and humidity, it works great. Added some pics and a movie.

She's developing very fast and without any type of issues, there's not too much to say on the first days of life. I'm so excited about this indoor run. I'll be training this lady in not too long. Hope to make a big bush with this beautiful lady right here. Stay tuned to see this beautiful strain in action! ๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ’šโค๏ธ๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐ŸŒพโœŒ๏ธ

Here we go ladies and gentlemen! Welcome back to my Strawberry Cheesecake by seedsman, Diary. As we can see it was an amazing week after the top dress. She loved it! We have a nice lush color, good growth, and I'm hoping for a good solid stretch in the next coming weeks. I have to say, this is definitely the most uniform and beautiful structured auto I've seen in a lonnnnng time. Well done seedsman, now let's see how she flowers!!

great strain hard buttons heavy total life of 88 days. 84 after being born, besides having broken it will give me a good yield I will wait 90g to dry, for an automatic with 5.5 liter pot I think this is great. easy to grow very, very cold, sweet, sour, aroma, I'm happy .. final summary the lady still gave me 110g dried without branches and leaves very clean .. I am very very satisfied with the result both in the quality of the herb and the yield @Fast_buds @spiderfarmer @advancednutrients @growdiaries

1- getting nice and thick with a stronger smell. Watered with flowering chemicals. Tent at 24.6ยฐC and RH at 47% today Away for the weekend. Canโ€™t wait to see how she will look when I get back 5- Came back to fairly dry soil and somehow forgot to turn my dehumidifier back on after emptying it. So the RH was at 77% when I got back. I got everything back within the range I want it now. 24.5ยฐC and 46% RH. Watered plant with flowering nutrients. 7- Just amazed by how fast it grows. Seems like every time I look at it, it keeps getting thicker. I have some sort of fascination with the main cola. Just love taking pictures of it. I ordered a USB microscope that I should be getting today. Looking forward to see those trichomes magnified.

It is a vigorous plant with very uniform branching, high resinous and high yield, if you grow from seed there are a few different phenos that I got, equally as good

2018-03-13 Week 11 Day 1 As I mentioned last week, the girls are growing like crazy since I changed to 600W HPS,and even though they haven't grown so much higher, they are definetly wider because of LST. My growroom is only about 1.8m2, so now the girls are so wide that there's not enough space for them to get wider, so now I will let them stretch. Nr 1 is 44 cm Nr 2 is 39 cm 2018-03-14 Day 2 I LST'd the girls one last time and also defoliated them mildly so all the tops get as much light as possible,hopefully increasing the yield in the end. I also turn the girls 1/4 lap every day to ensure that all sides of them get as much exposure to light as possible, it would've been great to have some kind of turntable that turns the girls 1 lap in 12 hours,, but until I find out a device that does just that,I'll keep on doing ti manually. Added some videos for you to enjoy. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Strain information Genetics for the famous Power Plant were captured by a group of Dutch growers on a trip to South Africa, back in the 90โ€™s. They managed to breed a strain that was soon a popular choice in coffee shops of the Netherlands, most likely due to the soaring and intense Sativa high. Zambeza Seeds thought that the productiveness of Power Plant should never be forgotten and created an updated version, to bring the legend back to live. Power Plant XL yields up to 600-750g/mยฒ in a flowering period of approximately 55 days! The efficiency and productiveness of Power Plant XL fears no comparison with many recently bred cannabis strains. Indoor heights of 80-110cm make this sativa-dominant variety relatively easy to grow, but outdoor growers need to be aware of the power that is being released under the sun. Outdoor plants can easily reach heights of 150-200cm, and yields of 500-600g per plant. The taste of Power Plant XL can be described as a delightful blend of sweet and sour flavours, with subtle hints of pine tree in the background. Smokers who appreciate a very strong and uplifting Sativa high will be more than satisfied with the effects. One will experience feelings of euphoria that are definitely intense and uplifting, typical for a South African Sativa like this. The up-high can also evolve into being more relaxed, especially when larger quantities are being consumed. Some people suspect Power Plant to be grown in large commercial operations around the world. It doesnโ€™t really matter if these assumptions are the truth or myths, but Zambezaโ€™s breeders are very proud to bring this highly productive legend back to live. The updated version of it, Power Plant XL, is the most efficient Dutch "bud factory" money can buy. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

******** Week 10 - Feb 10 to 16/20 (Days 64 - 70 from seed popping out) Itโ€™s flush week so not much to update really. This week you anticipate the outcome with great hopes and also think about missed opportunities......no different here ๐Ÿ˜‚ ๐Ÿ˜‚ ๐Ÿ˜‚ Last feed given last week. First good flush and finishing agent used this week. Gave her Flawless Finish in the morning and 8 hours later flushed her with 8L of RO water. Given she has been very green and tips were burnt a fair bit, I used Flawless Finish to flush the medium. The medium is pretty good with going into the week in mid 300โ€™s ppm. Seeing nice amount of orange in her and the bud is a nice light colour right now as well. She squished out bud very well over the weekend and has swelled quite a bit. She is getting fat and happy.......putting on the weight and frost this week girl!! Dropped the night temps to 60 degrees and the humidity to roughly 40% at night. Stripped more of her leaves and down to just bud, haha. Some are still left where I donโ€™t want to remove the leaves for fear of bruising the bud trying to get it off. ๐Ÿ˜ง Sweet Seeds is impressing me on this girl with her growth. More trimming earlier on in the grow and she would have filled out all of those colas. The dry and cure are next on the radar very soon and I am sure she will continue impress there as well. Her frost is coming on quite well so expect it be in the high teens anyway for THC. Yup......keep her on the radar again for a seed sale๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿ‘ Little more detail: Feb 10/20 - Day 64 - Flushed with agent in late morning. - 2L Flawless Finish @ 2ml/L = 125ppm and 6.1pH - Flushed with plain water in evening. - 6L plain water, 20ppm and 5.8pH. - 2L plain water with Rezin & Liquid Weight, 100ppm and 5.8pH - runoff water was 200ppm and 6.1pH. - The agent seemed to have cleaned up the medium a fair bit and things look in good shape. - Some fox tails forming but the colour is lightening and buds are swelling. Feb 11/20 - Day 65 - pot is light. - 2L water with Rezin & LW8 = 100ppm and 5.7pH. Feb 12/20 - Day 66 - 2L water with Rezin & LW8 = 80ppm and 5.95pH. - fattening and swelling nicely. Feb 13/20 - Day 67 - 2L water with Rezin & LW8 = 90ppm and 6.15pH. - More red hairs forming. Feb 14/20 - Day 68 - pot still had some weight. - day out day. Feb 15/20 - Day 69 - 3L water with Rezin & LW8 = 100ppm and 6.1pH. - cleaves getting lighter green. - Bud looking more โ€œwhiteโ€ in appearance at a distance. Feb 16/20 - Day 70 - 3L water with Rezin & LW8 = 100ppm and 6.0pH. - brought down temps further to 73 degrees and humidity at daytime max of 50%. Have a great week all and may your gardens be full of colour and shine!!๐Ÿ™

result for the first one: after 7 days of drying, a cleaning of the last leaves, and by removing the branches, I obtain 51g dry; for a first session in cocot, I hoped 100g with my 2 plants; this one thus made its job. just barely. ๐Ÿ˜‰ 2 weeks to go before I know if the other one will do better ๐Ÿ‘Œ

~ FASTBUDS TESTER #2203 ~ Well friends, here we go on another 'canna-venture' together! The grow room has had a complete remodel and some upgrades done to it including brand spanking new 4x8 and 4x4 tents and a Trolmaster Hydro X controller along with a new Control Panel. This tester strain is one of six tester strains that FastBuds has graciously provided me with and I'm looking forward to seeing what this girl has to offer when she's grown to her full potential! One drawback of 'testers' is I have little to no information on it other than its number and that it's an autoflower... ๐Ÿคช But, it's ALWAYS a blast growing them for me because not knowing a lot allows me to just concentrate on the essentials: Light, Environment, Water, Nutrients and possibly a bit of LST... not complicated, just basics like keeping a constant temperature and RH in the tent at a level that gives a good VPD, watering when almost dry and maintaining proper light levels according to their stage of growth. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ~THE SETUP~ ~Initially seeds were lightly scuffed, then soaked for 3 hours in 78โ„‰ distilled water after which they were transferred to moist paper towels laid out in a Jiffy Pellet plastic starter tray with lid. Underneath the tray was placed a Mars Hydro Heat Mat with Controller that was set to 78โ„‰ where they stayed until their tap roots emerged. ~Planted into Jiffy Peat Pellets that were hydrated with distilled water warmed to 78โ„‰ with a 7.0 ph. ~Once roots emerge from the Jiffy Pellet they're transferred to their fabric pots. ~Grown 100% organic in a 4g Gronest fabric pot and a 3g fabric pot by Wraxly filled with Mother Earth 70/30 Coco/Perlite medium and initially amended with Dr. Earth 4-4-4 / Earthworm Castings / Dr. Earth Flower Girl 3-9-4 and Coast of Maine Stonington Blend Organic Plant Food 5-2-4. ~19/5 light cycle for the entire run with supplemental UVA added during flower. Lights are controlled by a Trolmaster Hydro X controller set for a 15min Sunrise/Sunset simulation. ~Top dressing every 3-4 weeks with slow release dry amendments and Earthworm castings. ~Straight water ph'd @ 6.2-6.8 when needed and bi-weekly Compost Tea's. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 12/15- Here we go into the second week of veg for the FastBuds Tester #2203 girls and they're on a roll! When I checked on them today they both were still moist so I let them go until I check them tomorrow. Basically at this point in the run all I have to do is make sure they don't dry out, fill the humidifier and watch them grow! 12/17- Yesterday I watered them both and increased the amount to roughly 0.25g each of de-chlorinated water with 3ml/g of Botanicare Silica Blast (added to begin to help strengthen their branches) and then ph'd to 6.4 @ 74โ„‰. I've also increased the output of the HLG 650R's to 35% which equates to about 230w at the wall which, of course has raised the temp's in the tent so I've also begun to run the A/C unit in the grow room which is keeping the temp's now at 75โ„‰ in the tent. The RH is running around 75-78% RH giving a VPD of .67-.74 which I'll take! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘ Other than what I've mentioned above, all I did was fill the humidifier with distilled water and watched my girls grow! ๐Ÿคฉ 12/19- Today I watered them each with 0.25g of de-chlorinated water to which I added 3ml/g Fish Head Farms Fish Sh!t and 1 tsp/g Unsulfured Molasses which I then ph'd to 6.3 @ 74โ„‰. I'm now watering through the bottom, filling the drip pan and letting the plant draw up the water into itself. I am also watering from the top, but only just enough to moisten the medium. They're really starting to take off now, a sure sign their roots are beginning to get well developed. Their 4th set of leaves have emerged and as they get bit bigger I may give topping, one or both, some consideration... we'll see! 12/21- Today I watered them both with 0.25g of straight de-chlorinated water each which was ph'd to 6.3 @ 74โ„‰. I gave about 3/4 of it into their drip pans so they can draw it up into their medium, the rest I applied to the top of their medium just to moisten it. They're both doing fantastic with good color and vigor! They're not very tall and judging by their leaf shape and overall structure I'd say they are definitely leaning towards the Indica side of the gene pool! I'm holding off on deciding whether or not to top them, but will make a decision in the next couple of days! Well there's two weeks of veg behind us now, Week Three of vegetation is beginning and they should really start to take off! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ’š Thank you for checking out my passion in life! Please visit as often as you wish and I hope you enjoy this journey as much as I know I will! Grow Strong! ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿค™

She is starting to getting fat, at the begginning of this week, it was raining, but in the middle of the week, sunny days are appearing, and she is loving it, drastically increased eating levels, in 1-2 days, lower leaves started to yellow, but i noticed soon and gave a good dose with 4ml/l Top BLoom + some carbohydrates, Top Candy 2ml/l, and now she is lovin it. That purple colours appearing...no words... Simply a blessing, even more beautiful :D Last videos are about what i think are Chemtrails, like ie said before, the week started with rainy days, but when the sun came, this kind of biodegradable material appeared again like it is usual, it could be identified as spiderwebs if you dont look closer, but when you touch it is like soap and disappears... Guys and Ladies, let me know what you think if you want to stick a comment :) Take Care GD !!!

She's doing her thing this week. I'm keeping her watered approx 50ml/day.
