The girls have been very busy making golf balls this week! The cookies are also starting to frost up 🤗 At the beginning of the week there was not much to do, the girls had stopped stretching and were settled in. In my 2x4 tent, all I had to do was tuck fold the leaves to open up the bud sites. I basically did the same for my big tent. Simply moved some leaves from blocking sites, and plucked just a few that were rather large. They are still needing to be watered every 72 hours or so. I have been keeping to a feed, water, feed schedule now that we are into flower. I just started to notice that some of the tops are showing some nutrient burn, just a little, and not every plant. This tells me I have hit their limit with the nutrients, somewhere between 700 and 750 ppm. The last watering I did, I watered to about 10% runoff, trying to make sure that there are no salt or mineral buildup that can cause lockout or other issues. At the end of the week, day 21, I defoliated both tents, not too much, but enough to open up the bottom growth a bit. Also tidied up the lower portion below the trellis, as this just wastes energy and yield from the main colas in the long run. No real issues or problems so far, Happy Gardening Folks! 🇨🇦👊❤️😎💨

Another slow week. I increased light schedule to 13/11. I’m going to slowly lower the time of light until by the time harvest day comes it’ll have a longer dark period. I’m also going to stop feeding the bottle nutrients my soil is moist still so I gotta wait. I’m predicting a couple ounces this grow.

It’s growing well. The first pistils are visible. hey ho let´s go..... 💪

Day 45-52 (Day 46) I just realized I forgot to zip up a small flap in the tent for at least 5 days or so. This probably made the added co2 useless. All the plants are slightly clawing and almost look overwatered, which is normal for plant at this stage but I wonder if the lower co2 levels are contributing at all. I couldn’t help myself today and did a small defoliation. Hopefully this doesn’t stress them out too much. I took about 15-20 leaves per plant. I really want some of this larf on the bottom fill out more. Even by 10-15%. (Day 47) Wow. I just noticed that #5 is putting on a thick layer of late frost. I’m guessing this has to do with all the mid flower feedings. Unfortunately the density on this girl lacking big time. Especially on the lowers. This could be genetic but there is too many variables at play to say for sure. If this stuff smokes proper I will continue to feed in mid flower. Plants are really starting to fade out here now. #3 in particular has some odd red coloring in a few of the leaves. (Day 48) I watered in 2 gallons on each plant making sure to get some decent runoff from each. Sucks that #3 didn’t fill out. The genetic potential was definitely there, something just went awry after that tea I gave it. I have at least 2 or 3 clones of that I will try outdoors. It’s been a very P hungry plant too. The stems were purpling like crazy, even in veg. Some people say this can be fixed with a microbial product like Mammoth P or Tribus which I might try for my next grow. #6 isn’t really filling out much either unfortunately. Tops look decent but everything under that is pretty leafy and airy. #1 and #7 are the clear winners here. #1 especially is picture perfect. If I wasn’t working on another project after this I would clone just #1 and run another scrog like this from clone. (Day 50) I was plucking some leaves today and I found a confirmed banana sticking out of one of the main colas on the stubby pheno. I didn’t defoliate this one too much so I wonder if it was caused by stress at all. I hope I don’t find anymore because we only have 10 days left here. (Day 52) My family member trimmed up the m39. It looks super scraggly but has some decent crystal nonetheless. That’s partly why I would never use an amazon blurple for flowering. It just doesn’t have the same canopy penetration that a light like mine does. Although for a budget setup they’re pretty awesome.

Very easy plant to harvest, didn't have too much leaves, so very easy to take out fan leaves and prepare to dry.

1/8/2024: so far the grow is not off to a great start. The browning that started on the cotyledon has spread to the other leaves and her growth has definitely slowed a bit. I used some water that sat out for a few days, so that may have been the issue, but I'm not sure why that would cause a problem. The ph was at 6.2. I also foiler fed them with some Tweetmint, which i think is the issue. I may hav3 not diluted it enough, causing the buring. I'm laying off anymore IPM until the olants bounce back. I also turned the lights down until i can get the plants back on track. It may just be the soil is too hot, but I have other plants in different soil that are showing the same symptoms, so it makes me think it's not the soil. I'm not giving up yet, but if things don't improve soon, I may just pop a new seed. This is my biggest issue with auto flowers. If the grow isn't perfect I could end up stunting the plant too much. I guess we will find out. 1/10/2024: Day 10 - the new growth is coming in healthy. I'm pretty sure the foiler spay I used last week is what caused the issue. I went back and realized I used way more of the concentrate than I should have, which likely burned the leaves. Let's hope that is the only mistake I make on this grow and it doesn't stunt the plant too much. 1/14/2024 - Day 14: she is looking so much better. All the new growth is as healthy as can be. I added a new light today. Replaced the Spider Farmer SF2000 with the AC Infinity Ionboard S44. I originally had the S44 in my 4x4, but recently bought a light with more Watts and better coverage for the 4x4. The S44 is probably overkill for the 2x4, but it fit, so I figured I'd give it a try. Only have it on at 60% at the moment and I'm getting about 500 ppfd, with a DLI of 30. Dropped the light cycle down to 18 on and 6 off as well. I have some photo period plants in the 2x4 as well, and I wanted to shift them to 18/6, so the auto is going along for the ride.

Not much work was needed this week — the Strawberry Gorilla continues to develop beautifully on her own. The buds are stacking very nicely along the branches and are steadily gaining both size and density. Trichome production is also progressing well, giving the flowers an increasingly frosty appearance. I’m starting to see some slight signs of heat-induced foxtailing on a few tops, but nothing dramatic or concerning at this point. Overall, the plant still looks very healthy and productive. For now, there’s not much left to do besides keeping an eye on her and letting those buds continue to bulk up.

Here comes the first Preflower Update

Every week I take leaves off. Only the bigger ones tho I water twice a week but fertilise once

Got these transplanted to the rain science 3 gal bags and moved to a 4x4 in the basement where it's a little better environment in terms of vpd. I had a full bag of roots organic soil so I decided to do a soil/coco blend like I did with the current autoflower crop. I also topped every single one of em mid week. Once I get the flower tent all cleaned out and everything I'll be throwing these in there for bloom. Hoping this will be an even better grow than the last since I have both my arms back. I'm doing the update a little early since I was late on it last week, today (tuesday 9.10.19) is day 43 from germination and about day 39 from full sprout. Before this week they were under only about 185w in a 4x4 area so it's been slow growth so far. The hawaiians are doing good very healthy so far.

So the plant did well in the 9L airpots, and had a really good root structure. Out of this grow she was one of the largest out of the 4 plants. She didn't quite pull out the colours that this strain usually manages, but that's probably due to me not being able to lower the temperature. The harvest was quite an easy one and I didn't really get any fluffy buds as I had trimmed the lower part of the plant early on in the grow.

mide cada vez más, va creciendo correctamente.

Bubble OG Gum auto is growing great. She is shifting more and more into flowering. She should start stretching a lot in next few weeks. 🤞🏻 she goes big. Everything is looking really good. She is eating a lot and drinking a lot of solution. I will likely do a solution change right as she gets to bulking. Unless she is just thriving, then I will hold off. Don't fix what is not broken.

👺Yoooo Gang Week 9 Update!!! LFG!👺 👽What's good fam!! Let's get in it!!!👽 Sooo couple of things I have adjusted in the setup, increased all channels in my GML Ultimate 1K LED up to 💯% from 70% so after that lowered Intensity to 700 watts output as of now, saw an overnight difference in growth lol really amazing what this light can do, also I'm keeping pH swing between 5.8-6.2, which is really a small challenge but nothing i can't overcome, feeding is standing at every 3 days to add 2 gallons fresh as of now, the girls are really eating through the PPM also which is good to see, other then that they are really runnin!!! Stay tuned gang! LFG 👹😎 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 👺Update before the week is over!!!👹

Ja sie hat budrot. Aber erstaunlich wenig. Die 4 Wochen wo ich sie nicht mehr gesehen habe, haben ganz schön Spuren hinterlassen. Ich würde mal sagen sie könnte man ernten. Der so Mango hingegen geht's dagegen geht es viel besser.

Week 7

Topping This Week!

Hello again! Into week 7+ ladies were very bushy so I decided to dive in and clear out the lower canopy and removed old leaves. As usual watering every 4-5 days and I have increased the amount of water to about 8L to each pot. They are drying out faster day by day. Still using 50mL of molassas to 5gal of water pH to 5.9 this time. No issues to report. See you on the next update!

Se pegaron gran estirón y la floracion ya es evidente en todas las plantas a excepcion de lsd 25. El calor ya es altísimo debido al verano y se empieza a notar en las hojas superiores, sin embargo, todas las plantas tienen un aspecto sano.
