This week was all about germination. I used a wet paper towel and a baggie. I tried to show in the video how wet I actually get the paper towel when getting ready to germinate a seed. It can't be sopping wet and it can't be too dry. The paper towel has to be wet enough that you can squeeze about 1 tsp of water out of it. This little seed started germinating on Day 1 but I gave it another day to get a bigger tap root. Now it is in some soil and we are waiting for it to grow!! Come back next week for an update:)

Getting some ambers on the buds now, so not too much longer. The buds just keep getting tighter and more dense so I'm not complaining.

Last few days now, i gave them one feed with canna flush. I’ll just give them ph balanced water for now. Then put them in 48hr darkness with no water. I moved them to my other tent in preparation for harvest.

Some more light defoliation, and propped her up as the buds are VERY dense and she started leaning over.

Plants looking great. Final week, flushing with filtered water for 7- 10 days. Plants ripening nicely, very dense colas. I noticed a spider mite outbreak last week, it has spread from one plant to the a few others, not a bad infestation, today predator mites will be released onto every plant throughout flush. Predator mites have worked great in the past. **predator mites phytoselius have been applied, hopefully they can clear up the infestation before harvest. When the plants are cut down and hung to drt any remaining mites will crawl up the stem as the plant dries. I will wrap the stem in double sided sticky tape.

OK, so we started the 6th week and the plant is showing some growing signals. It's impressive how a plant that looks really bad, can actually keep growing and developing itself. This week I've started to see some development on bud zone/spot, and I believe that even making some mistakes ate the beginning, I'll be able to taste some buds from this little girl.

i was surprised that she was done on 2/15/25 spidermites had completely taken over one bud so i decided to check trichomes and she seemed ready.

Targona 43 days since my little girl sprouted from seeds🌱 Sixth week of growth of my Apple Fritter Automatic 🍎🍏🍎 Nutrients: I use Advanced Hydroponics Of Holland nutrients - three basic components, still according to the table for vegetative growth πŸ’“ - - Dutch fertilizer Formula 1 Grow - supplies the plant with substances necessary for the perfect development of roots, stem and leaves; intended for the growth phase 🌾 - Dutch fertilizer Formula 2 Bloom - contains a large amount of nutrients necessary for rapid growth and fruit development, supplies the plant with energy; intended for the flowering phase 🌸🌿 - Dutch fertilizer Formula 3 Micro - increases oxygen intake, improves plant immunity, ensures better absorption of nutrients; intended for the growth and flowering phase 🌴 -------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- --------- BioBizz Calmag - The special Calmag supplement was designed for professional and hobby growers who need to supply their plants with calcium and magnesium in organic quality for a long time or immediately. 100% organic πŸ’©πŸ’© and certified BioBizz Calmag is made from calcium carbonate and magnesium sulfate supplemented with humic acid. -------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- ------------ BioBizz Bio pH- is an organic pH regulator. An aqueous solution of citric acid, which occurs naturally in citrus fruits πŸ‹πŸ‹ ---------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------- During the flowering period, I add stimulants: - JUNGLE X Environ is a highly effective complex preparation for stimulating flower formation. 🌸🏡️ - Bud Candy - carbohydrates for my girls 🍭🍭🍭 Anyway, this is the last watering that I mix like this. I will gently switch to mainly organic nutrients, with the addition of very gentle flower stimulants, which are only slightly or partially mineral. In general: Apple Fritter Automatic 🍎🍏🍎 - The girl still responds well to nutrients. Actually all the girls in the tent, except for their sister - Melonade Runtz, which I'm sorry about. However, as I wrote above, I will be switching to a different fertilization system, so we'll see, girls, it shouldn't stress me out, because it will be much lower doses of organic nutrients. I really like the main "bud", I can already see that it will be a thick and strong flower πŸ’šπŸŒΊπŸŒ±πŸŒΏ Training: During this period, I decided to try only a slight defoliation. In previous rounds, I did more defoliation every week, now I try to do the opposite and leave more space for flowers and nature. I wonder if this will affect the harvest πŸ’šπŸŒžπŸŒž Light: Mars Hydro TS1000 The plants respond effectively and the light is technically very well managed - I try to have 50 cm between the light and the plants, so I move it up regularly πŸ’‘πŸ’‘πŸ’‘ Thanks for the likes See you soon 😍😍

Great week on the farm! Crazy nice weather in southern MI recently. Loving it. Introduced Mephy to some LST to regain some even canopy. Probably do some more over the week for some spread. I've been adding DO (dissolved oxygen) to my water/nutes with an old aquarium pump + airstone. Really keeping the roots happy in this tiny space. Overall I'm very happy with where she's heading. Nice healthy growth, and seems to be taking the LST like a champ. Hope everyone had a great week, and all the tiny pot ladies are healthy! Back to the farm. ✌️🌱

Week 8 is finally here! We changed up the nutrient feeding to the week 8 on the feed chart. I am diluting everything at a 50-40% rate to keep EC within acceptable ranges of 0.8 - 1.1 EC. I started adding Terpinator to the mix and I do notice a significant smell increase vs. without it. I am going to keep using this as I think it is a great supplement. I did figure out that even though on the bottle and on the specific feed chart, it says it is a light formula that will have minimal impact on EC and will not burn your plants at the recommended rates - it will! First time mixing up my nutrients with terpinator, I had to dilute it because the EC was too high. I put the recommended amount in my mix, and checked EC and low and behold it was high. The next feeding I did a 50% dilution rate and that seemed to be ok if you are diluting your other inputs properly to compensate. ALWAYS make sure your EC and PH are in check prior to fertigating your plants. I am watching the trichomes on a daily basis and am looking to harvest sometime this week or next. I plan to dry it in the tent it is growing in as it has AC and good airflow. Once they are done drying, they will get trimmed up, lightly vacuum sealed and stored in the freezer. Updates will be coming throughout the week!
