Almost skipped a week. So this is the 4th week of 12/12 lighting. Not much to see, alot of stretch and building is bud sites. You can find my YouTube channel at "Ben Chasin' Big Budz"... Thanks for stopping by.

Been a good week, did a few upgrades to get tent as automated as possible and it's been going great now that I can make changes anywhere instead of rushing home or asking for help to turn off or adjust 😆 Is it possible to start getting foxtail mid flower? Ending 4th week now. Bubble gum ice cream showing signs. Lights are about 36" away from canopy and dimmed to 75% [photontek 600w pro] Very powerful, been tempting to lower to 50% as it gets pretty warm. I have 8" blowing out and a 6" blowing in the tent to keep positive pressure and constant air flow. Let me know what you guys think, any comment or feedback is appreciated and welcomed. Happy growing🌴🌴

First day of week 6, I will be adding content as the week progresses, have a look at week 5 as that is now complete. Status: Candy Kush #1 d36 - Looking awesome, some pistils showing. Was too bushy so did some LST and slight defoliation today with supercrop on 1 branch. Candy Kush #2 d36 - Looks like nitrogen deficiency is sorted, now I have excess? :D see the clawing tips? Gonna stick with the current feed, hopefully she'll overcome otherwise I'll flush her once if things get worse. Bubble Kush d32 - Amazing, nothing to report, some tucking done Fastberry d32 - Looking as weird as ever, some tucking done Sugar Mama d36 - growing and getting really bushy, shame about the mess I did with the roots/stem but she is doing ok now. ---- Fed 2nd day of weeks 6 (day 37), 3ml biogrow 2ml calmag. pH was at 6.5 Ec was at 1.5. New leaves are really yellow in candy Kush 2, iron deficiency? Not sure what is happening, will be monitoring. ---- Day 38, Removed the yellow leaves and a little defoliation on all the plants ---- Day 39, Raised the shorter plants so they get some more lights. All of them have finished 35 days (5 weeks from seedling today) and are looking great. Feed the same, although they still look very bright, brighter than I am used to. ---- Day 41, Feeding time, started giving them bloom at 5ml/l and the other normal dosages as in diary. ---- Day 42, End of week 6 The girls are all looking great, there is is so much hair on the buds, haven't seen so much with outdoor grows. Exciting :D Sugar mama is way too bushy and not getting taller. The new blades are too thin, maybe I'm overfeeding her (only biogrow+calmag)? defoliated her, lots of fan leaves removes, she is asking for some training, I've ordered plant tie and will do some LST when delivered. Fastberry also had a couple of leaves removed All kushs doing great Thanks for reading and happy growing!

Week 10 Day 1 Stardawg is continuing through flower nicely and I will be adding the final nutrient to her mix with Bud Boom by Future Harvest to really help her bulk up in her final couple weeks. Week 10 Day 2 Added trichome photos with the loupe that arrived today.

_____📅 Week 8 | 📅 Day 50 - 56 | 17.06 - 23.06 ____________________________________ 🌼🌸🌺Pre-flower🌼🌸🌺 23.06.25 | Day 56🌞💧 🔸This week I wanted to stress my sweetys as little as possible, so only a few photos from the tent. They are standing perfectly straight and I didn't want to break or snap anything off. They are doing great. 🔸I tried out my additional light this week and connected it to my controller. As soon as the flowering starts I will switch it on. I'll have to see how much distance I use this time, the lamps were too close to the plants during the last grow “Runtz” and that didn't look nice. 🔸Next week I will start giving her Big Bud as soon as the first buds appear. 🔸A&B: the fresh shoots and leaves look almost yellowish lime green...but will darken with time. I first thought it was a deficiency at the beginning of the week. _________________________________________________________________________________________ current conditions: 🌡️🔆= 24° 🌡️🌜= 18-19° 💨 Hum. = 65% 🔦 PPFD = 600 umol 12/12 🔦⌚DLI = ~ 25 _________________________________________________________________________________________ equipment to use: 💡 Light: 2 x Sanlight Evo 4- 120 on 60% ⛺ 120 x120 x 180 🍯 Pots: 18 liter pot 🌱 Soil: Bio-Bizz light mix 💊 Nutrients: Advanced Nutrients 💧 Water: Tap Water 0,5 EC

´ Week 21 Finishing August, 23 degrees with some rainy and windy conditions during ten days; after that start a new heat waves (38 degrees tomorrow) with sunny days. The whole summer was like this: no really regular conditions. But it’s a pretty good test for finding a way to grow without any electricity during 6 month: preying to get a good harvest in quantity and quality. One of the lessons When you grow in Europe, west coast around 46°N, near ocean is to have an Indoor shelter to preserve from weather irregularity’s (rubbery and cops). There’s good year giving good fine vintage, bad year and poor harvest. To have a reasonable harvest: shelter is better! Daylight 13h - 7h30/20h30 (-3 minutes) Plant is changing to the final morphology. Flowering since around 3 weeks: we needs almost 7 weeks more before the harvest question. I was doubtful about the flowers size, but I compared to the last year diary and note that the evolution of plants were similar. Middle to end October will be probably the harvesting period: It’s because Indica dominant or low Sativa genetic is a reasonable option when selecting the outdoor strain. Normal flowering development for this pretty big plant (did the topping too late) good, easy resistant and satisfying strain for outdoor .lot of flowering sites, always vigorous without stagnation along the different and successive stages. I will certainly test it later indoor with LST🌱🌞Amesia Seeds 🏆make really serious products. No really smell for now. Some Thrips around (white points on leaves) but not more. 💦 Sprayed Neem Oil, I will restart soon or with soap… Problem of air circulation during heat or humidity episodes = pests The plant is not totally healthy but initiate the flowering stage normally; next day will be interesting and crucial. I suspected some deficiency signs on some leaves; nitrogen or phosphorus… not sure… Whatever I put some palm tree ashes and sprayed the plant with a FishMix solution Feeding the plant with Canna Terra Flores (easy when you’re busy) Watering every 72h 1,2 L- ph <= 6.5 - Rain Water + Cannazym - Calmag + Terra Flores (2mL) + Cannazym x 3 - FishMix + BioHeaven + Humic/Fulvic

~~13JUN18 - 19JUN18~~ Not to much changed this week just waiting for the flower to be ready. Did a lot of prepping for the next run. They are all stretched out and topped so they just grow up. Lots of space so light and go through easily. They will be getting the Advance line-up, Stay tune and see my second run. Harvested - 19JUN18 (D+62)

Huge dongs on the remaining amnesias she’s fading yellow and falling all over the place I could cut her now with 20% amber but I’m inclined to wait a little bit longer to induce a little couchlock! The strain doesn’t hit very hard at all but when made into hash or rosin the strain has great flavour profile and comes out very blonde

🌸 Week 12 – Gorilla Cookies Auto Pheno Hunt Another week has passed, and we are finally reaching the end of this pheno hunt. It has been an exciting journey with plenty of highs, but unfortunately also a few setbacks during the final weeks. 📈 Current observations: Unfortunately, Pheno #1 didn't make it to the finish line. Several buds developed bud rot, and rather than risking further contamination, I decided the best option was to remove and dispose of the entire plant. Pheno #3 never fully recovered after I had to remove multiple main colas earlier in flower because they were growing into the SANlight fixture. That stress significantly reduced its flower production, and in the end it simply wasn't worth keeping until harvest. Pheno #4 and #5 have now been harvested and are hanging to dry. Unfortunately, Pheno #4 accidentally snapped during handling, so I had no choice but to harvest it immediately. Luckily, it was already mature enough for harvest. That leaves Pheno #2 and Pheno #6 as the final two plants still standing in the tent. They are continuing to finish their flowering cycle, and I'm expecting Pheno #2 to be ready for harvest sometime next week. 📊 Current environment: Temperature: 31°C Relative Humidity: 63% VPD: ~1.66 kPa SANlight fixture at maximum height Light intensity: 90% 🌿 Final thoughts: Even though not every phenotype made it to the finish line, that's exactly what a pheno hunt is about. Every plant tells a different story, and every run teaches something new. Some phenos exceeded my expectations, while others showed weaknesses under the exact same conditions. Now the focus shifts to the final harvests, drying, curing, and, of course, the smoke test. I'm especially excited to compare Pheno #4, #5, #2, and #6 once everything is properly cured to see which one truly deserves the top spot. 💬 Which remaining pheno do you think will finish as the winner of this Gorilla Cookies Auto pheno hunt?

I think 2 a 3 weeks more before harvest

Here's the talley: 72g - Candesia [Candy Cane x Amnesia]  (top section) 112g - Candesia [Candy Cane x Amnesia] 116g - Candesia [Candy Cane x Amnesia] 119g- Candesia [Candy Cane x Amnesia] 127g - Candesia [Candy Cane x Amnesia] 184g - Candesia [Candy Cane x Amnesia] TOTAL: 730g 👍

hello friends 🍰🍰🍰🍰 frequent watering of flowers. sprays. 💧💦💦 I try to tie a flower for the good LsT. Please leave me here like if you read these words. I wonder if anyone reads it at all.😅 Have nice day friends 💚

This lady has been harvested today! I’ve been checking her trichomes all week as buds were looking plump and very dense. Up till 2 days ago there were no ambers at all, just all milky with a few clear/half clear. Almost overnight there are quite a few ambers, mostly on the main coal but there are a few on the other bud sites too. The last time I harvested this strain it gave no high, however, i harvested it with less amber than this lady has. Smells strong and it’s a fruity, gassy scent. Buds decent size/big and frosty! Decided to harvest in branches rather than the whole plant due to the density, I’d rather avoid mold as much as I can. Wet weight 247g for 1 plant. Can’t wait to see how this lady turns out after dry and cure! Will update in a few weeks

Super excited for this tester. Thank you guys so much for giving me this opportunity. Can’t wait to grow this genetics. Four of the best strains from the best seed company in the world. FastBuds420 🌿💨💯

Everything seems to be going alright, one of my plants has extremely shiny leaves almost like oily, and some odd shaped leafs but I’m very curious to see how things go when I switch to flowering considering these are all random bag seeds! Have been trying to look for signs of sex but still can’t see anything yet!
