Chopped and hanging in the smaller tent, I’ll be back with edits for jarring and curing… The Acapulco Gold smells like sour green apple WarH3ad candies 🍏 leaves my nose tingling. The Laughing Buddha smells tropical, lot going on in its profile I’m not quite sure what kind of fruit cocktail it reminds me most of but it’s more sweet and creamy. Next up, I moved 4x clones of the Laughing Buddha into the 4x4 tent, and setup drip irrigation. 💧I’ll start up that log soon. 🤘 I’m high.. HIGHLY recommend grabbing these strains from Barney’s Farm. 🏆

Hey everyone 😃. Week after week, both phenotypes become more beautiful and beautiful 😍. Pheno 1 is clearly my favorite color klar. Let's start the week: Flowering day 49 Both plants were checked for health and the trichomes were checked with a microscope. (70% milky, 20% amber and 10% clear. Flowering day 50 Today both were poured with 1.2 l each, of course now without any sewing material so that she would use the rest until the harvest 👍. Flowering day 51 Today both were checked, the humidifier refilled and fresh osmosis water filled into the tank. Flowering day 52 Both were checked for their health and in the end time for mold, everything looks great 😍👍. Flowering day 53 Again 1.2 l per plant were poured and the trichomes checked, it will run out for about 10 days before it comes to harvest. Flowering day 54 The humidifier was refilled and the tent cleaned. Flowering day 55 Again both were carefully checked, osmosis water was filled in the tank, and everything was cleaned. That was the week before last 👍. Next week comes the last update before the harvest update 😎👍. Until then, I wish you all the best, stay healthy and let it grow 🍀👌 You can buy this Strain at : https://sweetseeds.es/de/red-mandarine-f1-fast-version/ Type: Red Mandarine F1 Fast Version ☝️🏼 Genetics: Red Poison Auto®️ (SWS39) X Tangie (California Orange x Hybrid Skunk) 👍 Vega lamp: 2 x Todogrow Led Quantum Board 100 W 💡 Bloom Lamp : 2 x Todogrow Led Cxb 3590 COB 3500 K 205W 💡💡☝️🏼 Soil : Canna Coco Professional + ☝️🏼 Fertilizer: Green House Powder Feeding ☝️🏼🌱 Water: Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC.

The week starts Monday Jan-27, being day 27 of flowering. Plants are looking very good and healthy, albeit some bigger buds at this stage is missing. Carried out more minor defoliation, only trimming fan leaves on one side of a bud site in alternate fashion. Strategy is to expose more bud sites to light. Leaves are getting sticky and glistening brightly. The canopy has a few branches stretching out typical of Sativa genetics. Hoping the bud sites grow bigger soon filling up the space. Feeding a high EC nutrient mix whilst monitoring run-off EC which remains below feed EC. Light is maintained at 30cm above the canopy, with daily fertigation at lights on - watering just under 3L per day. Maintaining an average RH in the space at 50%. ---- updates for prior 4 weeks -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The week starts Monday, Jan-20 still flowering away. Bud sites are beginning to take form and the ScrOG setup looks full, ready for the development of some large buds. Removed a few more leaves from above the canopy which were blocking bud sites below. Also cut small stems (with bud sites) below the canopy from both plants which were unlikely to grow strong. It's now looking clearer below the canopy. The canopy is still thick with beautiful luscious green leaves typical of an Indica. Run-off EC has been slowly rising over the weeks but still under the feed EC - will be keeping my eyes on this. Light is maintained at 30cm distance from canopy, with daily fertigation at lights on - watering almost 2.5L per day. Maintaining an average RH in the space at 50%. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The week starts Monday, Jan-13 in flowering stage. The plant is growing thick and fast, with very short node intervals creating a thick canopy. Carried out substantial defoliation of almost all the big fan leaves and a few little stems that were not likely to make it above the canopy. Avoided defoliating the major cola branches. This encourages the plant not to waste resources on a node which is only going to produce “popcorn” buds. The plants reacted well to the defoliation and were looking good by the end of the light cycle for the day. The net is completely full and this will be the last week of applying any LST as part of the ScrOG setup. Light is maintained at 30cm distance from canopy, with daily fertigation at lights on - watering almost 2.5L per day. Lowered the average RH in the space to 50%. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The week starts Monday, Jan-06 in flowering stage. The net is filling up nicely with the ScrOG process being enjoyable - just tucking branches nicely under squares once stretched enough. The Indica dominant strain is really shining with incredible dense growth and thick branches that don't bend as easily as it's Sativa neighbour. Light is maintained at 30cm distance from canopy. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My grow setup includes; - Secret Jardin DS120W tent (120cm x 60cm x 180cm) placed inside the bedroom. Passive intake of air is from a closed off section of the room where the central heating boiler sits - the intake is warm air (20 degC.) and fairly dry (40% RH) during the winter months. - Mars Hydro SP250 LED light - extraction fan - AC Infinity Cloudline T6 - ventilation fans - aquarium heater - small oil heater - small dehumidifier - 20L Airpots and 3.5L general pots for seedling stage - Canna Coco substrate and nutrients - pH and EC/TDS meters - Thermo/Hygro meter

I mean, overall this was an extremely painless grow. The test of whether we should or shouldn't top autos is still TBD imo. Our topped candidate produced denser, frostier buds, but weighed slightly less, at 14 grams of bud total. And our lst plant produced 18 grams of bud, not as frosty, and almost as dense as our topped girl. I'll be topping autoflowers from here on out only under the circumstance I have 4+ to grow at the same time. Seems like it could be used to speed up the autoflower grow cycle if done properly, like with right. Since I'm doing a perpetual cycle, it's still a viable option for me in the long run. A few tips I have for anyone growing this strain in organics: Start feeding bloom nutes a little bit prior to flower transition - this makes the transition more seemless. From weeks 1-3 flower, I slowly dropped the grow dosage until I cut off grow nutes week 3 flower. Starting the flush around week 6 flower seemed to really bring out this plant's potential. But I think you could get away with starting the flush around week 5. I hope this helps anyone trying this strain out. It's a good one, I hope to see more journals of it, eventually. Cheers everyone! Time for me to take a well-deserved puff. :) ☁️ 🌼

Sorry guys I want to wait for a little bit, had to spend time with the family. My plants have bounce back from being overwatered I have one runt (caused by root damage from being overwatered) which is my cereal milk I’m sure she’ll bounce back but she will never make a fullest potential. Other than that all my plants are looking healthy ready to go three more weeks and veg. Then it’ll be time for the big flip. I had a awesome time growing these babies for my mental note my Mac1 and Gelato have the strongest smell my far from touch (stem rubbing lol).

Following RQS auto guide : https://www.royalqueenseeds.com/blog-how-to-grow-autoflowering-cannabis-n83 WEEK 2: LATE SEEDLING STAGE #8 22.3. - #14 28.3. #8 22.3. - Canna PH- grow (and bloom) arrived today, mixed 6ml to 3liters and poured around the pots (hoping to get hum. up also) will see what it does and if the PH starts going down from the 7+ i can start adding smaller amounts. -Moved around the LEDlights (those have 'bout 2000LUX at plant level) so they are more along the tent walls. -Moved temp meter from lamp to plant levet (have now confirmed the lamps wont heat up too much under current air flow so its safe to stop monitoring heat source temps. -Removed the "glass" from 3in1 meter and the tape from the front, tested the luxes, still at few hundred, so i would guess the LUX meter in that cheap meter is BS!. Now the PH is way more visible in the camera when there is no screen reflection etc. Added pics of the luxes from android app, will receive the "real"meter possbl this week. -When i had tent door open and did the stuff mentioned above the temp dropped to about 13degrees, but now we are already back up at 23'c at plant level, so seems stat the current exh-fan rotation is good. -Plants emself have taken some sort of an growth spur 'cause just few days ago they seemed like they are not growing at all, and ow i can really see the difference and they are making next set of leafes, might be that the temps risen so they enjoy em self now way more - forgot to take new pics from the plants emself so will juts update pics from cam for now , at least there's been some change again. -Will try to remember take proper pics of the plants next time i visit the tent physically -Should remember to buy the "LST-wire" for training, would be good time to buy some eastern decorations fluffy wires. #9 23.3. -Noticed that the timelapse camera is getting thrown around as well as one LEDpanel, so went and tied em up to tent posts. -Added 1,5liters of water that had 6ml of PH- canna in it, and poured in to "middle corner" of every pot. -Tent was way more warm and moist inside then ever before, which is a good thing, im sure after the latest added water im getting there. -Ordered a RAM humidifier. And some nutes pack from bio-grow. -Updated "week2 timelapse" (Check 1st week for its timelapse) -Note to self: Take those damn "camera quality" plant pictures, you are supposed to...- #10 24.3. -Started small form of LST -Guess who forgot to take the closeup pictures... again... Well better luck next time :D -Added 5liter RAM humidifier, at lowest possible setting, so that the water would last longest -Added 1,5liters of water with BioBizz nutes that came today in mail, Alg-A-Mic, Root-Juice and Top-Max. -Added ScrOG, but obviously its now just tested that it fits and its hanging at the tent side. -Had to move the Fast Eddy a bit and make a "stand" for the humidifier. -Moved the other LED (2300lux) a bit further up, will have more effect when plants grow, and those can be had as a xtra lights. -Moved some wires around their sockets to get better fit for all connectors. -Adjusted the camera directions -Turned both fans to level 1 of 2 -exhaust fan still at about 50% timer on/off, that must been what caused the "wobbly"pictures in timelapse as the tent gained more vacuum inside which must have drawn in the walls a bit. #11 25.3. -Not sure if i did anything #12 26.3. -Water run out from humidifier -Added a pic of the day -Luxmeter arrived, didn't had time to install it yet, but tested and found working. #13 27.3. -Added Hydrometer -Filled humidifier -Poured 1liter of water with nutes -Added/moved LST's -Finally remembered to take the close up pics of the plants! wohoo. -After following the hums i think i might add exhaust flow as its also warmer outside so the tent can now take it #14 28.3. -Last day of #2 week -Did nothing, just watched em grow. -Water run out of hum. hum went from 65% to 45%

Day 65, 17th of November 2020: Welcome back at the beggining of the 3rd week of flowering. They seem to be stopped streching and now concentrating on buds. All of them are gorgeous..... The 2 Zamnesia genetics Gelato and Kalini Asia are pretty and buds are forming nicely. Kalini Asia might strech a bit more but not long. The Sweet Seed ones are really nice and I am so happy because Red Hot Cookies is already getting red.... pistils and around the leaves.. I hope the same happens to the Red Mandarine and Tropicanna Poison also. They are so gorgeous. They calmed down I don't expect more strech. Fertilization still the same every 2nd day with the ratio and mix above. Some lollipopping (Defoliation) is also done. I removed all the LST the plant remains in the same shape from now. The lamp is on 11.30 min and off 12.30 min. Last week was 15 min longer light cycle.... So every week 15 min shorter light cycle until the 5th week. So far -30 min. It switches on at 6 am and off at 17.30 pm.

Day 43. Girls are filing up nicely and the only issue i had with supercroping instead of heavy tieing - was one split, but both branches are fine and should hold large colas. Blue Dream closest to heater got thirsty first, so leaves a bit droopy. Girls got phed water today, next feed - molasses tea, then water and later full blast of nutes. No Root Juice, took out Cal-Mag too for now. In 3 days girls go to 24+ hours darkness and FLOWER !!!! Day 46. After 36 hours of darkness its always small rush to see your girls - they are just DIAMONDS ;)) Vegetation stage went like couple weeks, if not my stupid overboost of exhaust and low humidity i would save 4-7 days i think. So its FLOWER time, girls will get theirs feed tomorrow. Very impressed with Zamnesia seeds, let's hope next stage will be even better !!! Happy Growing !!!

160 days of life harvested on day 63 of flower. I don’t have photos of her vegging but she started off great. About two weeks in, she started having some major issues. Her leaves started atrophying, curling up at the borders, growing 3 finger leaves, all new growth was deformed and twisted and growth in general almost stopped completely, to what I suspect was from broad mites. These fuckers are nasty! I dm’d my local grow shop and tried out some Neem Oil. I diluted it in water like they recommended and sprayed that baby every day for one week, then every other day the following week, then down to once a week. I sprayed her leaves stem and surface of the soil. I also cleaned the entire grow space with some bleach solution. Doing this allowed her to really bounce back, growth started to take off again! So I vegged for a few more weeks and trained her as much as I could to keep her uniform but short, she responded well to this. During flower, she was very happy. I had two main issues during this time, one was being too hot in Nitrogen and a week of very hot temperatures which burned her a slight bit, although she didn’t seem to mind much. I also could’ve continued a once a week spray of Neem oil because I think they might’ve started to come back on the lower and younger leaves that weren’t getting much light. Overall it was a dope grow and hope to do better on the next one!
