Day 7-9: Had a good environment overall, although the light was probably much too high. I didn't realise until quite late that it should have been 60cm above the seedling, and I had it around 120cm at first, and then 80cm. As a result the stem is a bit stringy. Day 9: I lowered the light to 60cm above the plant, and it won't go any lower. the recommended for this light is 30cm above the canopy, according to this very useful article: https://www.growweedeasy.com/how-far-grow-lights, but it's still in seedling stage and I'm guessing the plant will grow up a bit more, and I can always lower a little bit more. Also it's pretty damn hot, so I don't want to overdo it on the lights. I've been keeping the water consistent and just topped up a little on recommended nutrients (more grow, a little micro, adding a little bloom as it comes closer to flowering). The reason for this is because I want to maintain the consistency of environment and monitor the plant for any signs of unwellness. Because Sativas are sensitive to nutrient burn, I'm being conservative in this respect. The temperature with the light lowered is a steady 26 C, and I'm maintaining the humidity at around 70%. This is pretty good for this strain, as a sativa it likes higher temps and humidity. The water pH is around 5.9, also desirable. I've also been wondering if the plant is getting enough CO2. Is it necessary to buy a measurement device and some CO2 bags? Overall the plant seems very happy and is looking healthy. Day 10: cleaned the inside, added more grow, added more clay pellets since she looks a bit thin and stalky and needs extra support, and there were not many pellets present. Light distance is currently around 60cm. Though it won't go any lower with the straps, I will look at lowering it more with some extra rope as the ideal height will eventually be 30cm for this 250W HPS light. Added more Ph buffer yesterday evening and we're currently sitting around 5.7 ph. I was aiming for 5.8 but this is still acceptable. Temperature is around 25 - 26 C, humidity is around 70%, though I will begin lowering this as she grows. I will probably replace the water sometime this week. Upon further investigation I realised that my water levels were too high, and were possibly suffocating the stem. I reduced water levels by a few cm since I had previously been topping up without realising possible damage. I feel like today is the day that this seedling is finally becoming a plant. She has grown some long roots already. Day 11: I further lowered the light to around 40cm using some extra string. It's not super ideal, but for now it's ok. The plant was falling over it's own weight so I added some extra pellets around it for support and it seems to work. I'm hoping she won't stretch as much now that the light is lowered. The inside fan is still on and on full power to build up extra stem strength and keep temperature down. I'm attempting to keep humidity around 60%, a little lower than before. The temperature is significantly higher with the light lowered, easily maintained by periodically opening the door and leaving in cool air from outside which runs just past the intake fan. I'm slightly concerned about the Monstera Deliciosa plant which is sitting just opposite and above the intake fan. Would this have any effects, positive or negative, on the grow? Google is coming back blank on this.

Outdoors........time passes slowly.... Tropical weather here, this week. Hot morning, evening storms , cooler nights, high humidity, wind. What else? No problems to report, fantastic grow, girls full of life. Lots of work to bend and rearrange plant's shape every day, sometimes twice a day. Defoliation. Plant is responding fantastically. Special Kush #1 is now in the last days of crazy-stretch phase, is a big plant so I had to move the main top forward again to the opposite point of the perimeter in order to lower the line and give light in the middle.

Week 2 (Jan 11 - Jan 17) Giving 2 more seeds a try. This time using the new water-only organic soil found at the hydroponics place where we got the advice to go organic and helped pick out the right materials that didn't break the bank. Fingers crossed, but feeling hopeful.

Week 5: 8/24 we fed the kids for the first time!! We followed the instructions for Gaia Green All Purpose application and went ahead and grabbed the Bloom fertilizer as well, so we are ready for that transition. We did top all our auto flowers except one and they slowed down their growth a bit, but we have two strong main stems on all of them, so I'm excited to see how those fare outside. I've heard that everyone lives by Kelp, so we got some liquid seaweed and have been adding that to our waterings along with the Miicrobial Mass Pro. Considering grabbing the roots organic terp tea bloom boost or the Athena bloom set-up to see how we feel about this synthetic vs. organic fertilizer discussion and to get some growth happening on these autos. We started LST, but I wish there was more info on like what i'm supposed to be doing fr - feels like I'm just bending the stem 😳 (but we will see how that shakes out)... WELP! That's all folks. Til next time.

Most definitely a great strain to have in your garden if you want some color. Yield isn’t much but the flowers make up for that. I wish this strain had some more funk to it. My last Devil Cream lady smells straight like citrus. Stay tuned for its harvest. Thank you all for following my first grow dairy. Make sure you follow my future grows and follow me on Instagram.

Been having problems with EC! And I thought I had it made.😏 The only thing I can figure is my mix of HP Myco, and HP coco coir, EWC, shrimp compost, perlite and a little powdered dolomite lime must be too "hot". I am using a bluelab truncheon that is accurate and my runoff EC is 3.6. Plants were still to dark despite my hopes. My well water is 400ppm so I will try to keep my input water 1.8EC and 6.2 - 6.5 PH, 21 degrees and my runoff 2.0 EC. I have put thru another 120 L of just PH'd water 0.8EC until runoff was 1.8 to 2.2. Their shade of green looks better but there are 4 that are still too dark so I will try more water tomorrow. EC'd, PH'd & took Temp of all inflow and outflow on 10 plants (this takes forever)😟. Watered again with 6.3 PH, 20 degree, 0.9 EC well water and put thru 3 gallons for 6 plants . Run off EC was 0.8, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, 2.0! Their colour and hue is much better than it was, not so heavy and dull, and I believe that this flushing has saved them from being stunted and having more cell wall damage, as well as nitrogen toxicity and other bad stuff. You can see them coming around already from my blunders. Today Sept 28 is Day 73 and Day 14 of Bloom. I can hardly wait to actually feed them something in a couple of days.

It’s been a busy few weeks! Harvested 2 of my Bruce banner autos. Also everyone is in full on flowering and dang my blueberry takes a lot of work! She’s my biggest plants by far at 56” y’all and 58” wide with being LST’d. She drinks 2 gallons a day. My purple punch autos are doing great as well, my giant is in full on flowering and stacking! My other one has been in flower and should be done in a few weeks. The other autos, blueberry auto and Bruce banner auto are all in flower too and doing great. After this grow I will be starting my first indoor grow and that will be a whole nother learning experience. Welp time to go water my girls. Let’s kick ass this week and get the fuck after it!!👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼

The Apple Betty Babies have been chugging along, doing their thing ❤️ The frost is starting! These girls are early producers, and seem to be responding well to the wind and light stress! The second trellis was definitely needed. They have been keeping to the same schedule of needing to be watered every 72 hours. I will be switching from cal/Mag to Mag/Sulphur supplements later this week. ❤️ how readily available these Advanced Nutrients are. The nutrient burn on some of the tips has not spread or gotten worse. The feed range seems to be the 700-750 range. Still keeping to the feed, water, feed schedule. I’ve increased the light intensity to 90% and will probably be stopping there. The temps have been getting as high as 81 degrees, and low as 73 at night. I’ve decreased the humidity to fluctuate around 50% , giving a reasonable VPD for most of the time, thanks to the automation of the in-line exhaust fan. Still have 4-5 weeks for these babies, I’m hoping they continue to plump up, they are showing some great promise. Happy Gardening 🤗❤️👊🇨🇦

Starting out week 7 the Auto Ultimate is really getting thick, I dont have a lot to compare it to but her buds are so much thicker and harder than the White Monster's The White Monster and Auto Ultimate both showed some problems on some of their leaves, mainly brown spots and yellowing. I checked the run off EC and pH and both seem fine and within range, my led lights were getting a bit close and most of the yellowing is on the areas closest to the light, so for now I assume light burn, I raised the light as high as possible and turned it down juuuuuust a bit. I will keep monitoring the plants as they progress through this week

Bueno familia ya finalizamos con el proyecto de las Blue Spider, son una cepa bestial, me sorprendieron para bien La verdad que el secado muy bien 7 días en Malla y a los botes, 50% humedad y 23 grados es la temperatura ambiental que han tenido en el secado. En resumen la cepa es muy fácil de cultivar, Por lo demás de miedo os la recomiendo. Gracias a Agrobeta y Mars hydro , sin ellos este proyecto no sería igual 🙏.

They seemed to drink a lot this week, the environment is stable, and the girls seem to be having a blast. I've checked them throughout and all appeared to be female. Happy growing growmiees
