We are going to send these two into flower the second I get my hands on a 3x3. The plan is to move them into the 3x3 until they finish up. Leave the 5 Autoflowers in the 4x4 until they finish then start a perpetual cycle between the two tents. A 3x3 for Veg and 4x4 for Flower! I’m extremely excited about the future!

Another week gone for these 2 girls, they are looking very good and strong, getting some lovely autumn colours coming on the one at back so think she will be down soon. Will start to check trichomes on her next few days, as for the other one she’s just starting to fill out now, keeping the feed going for another week or so. Amazed by the amount of thc that’s on the girl looking forward to getting her down and trying her. Happy growing🌱

Quick germination. Put seeds into a cup of purified water, let soak for about 12 hours (until they sank) before placing directly into medium. Used smaller containers in the beginning, with zero amendments added to the mixture. Transplanted into permanent home before roots reached the edge, so there was no delay/shock involved.

A lot more happening this week! As shown in the pics, and as suspected, I have a manganese deficiency. I've been keeping my pH level at 6.2 in coco, manganese is taken up best by the plant below 6.0 pH. Dropping my ph level to 5.8 pH, and flushing with lower pH, hopefully it will solve the issue over the course of a few days. I made a new frame for a SCROG, with a "custom bend" in the CPVC pipe on both ends. The bend will allow me to take advantage of the slack material in the sides of my 4x4 tent. I'd previously taken 4" out of all the upright poles to shorten the tent so it would fit in the room due to low ceilings, meaning I had extra slack in my tent walls. The bend in the net frame pushes the sides of the tent out to 5 foot wide. My first SCROG net was a 6" mesh from Amazon, immediately knew I wanted a smaller mesh. Next time around I built my own with a 4" mesh and used the 4" for several grows. This time I decided to go with an even smaller, 3" mesh, and already I like it better. I don't really see myself going much smaller than 3" mesh though. It seems to work well, and any smaller and it may be too tight trying to work the plant through the opening sometimes, which if not careful, will damage the plant. I usually use a & gal cloth pot, grow off rules stated we 0had to use a 5 gal pot. Seeing as I only had 7 gal on hand, I was stuck picking up a Root Farm 5 gal cloth pot locally, as you can see, the roots didn't really stay contained, nor did they "air prune", i had to tear them off before installing the net above. On the last day of week 6 I finally got my net installed, and the plant SCROGged. I should have put the net in place a week or two earlier, it would have been easier to manipulate the plant, however the plant will still have a week to recover. I tie the net in place above the plant, and slowly lower it down, as I bend and super crop the main stalk over parallel to the net, and work all the branches underneath and spread them out. As the plant grows I'll continue to push branches back down through the net and moving them out to the next hole. This will greatly increase yields by allowing light to more bud sites, keeping all buds the same height and thus the same distance from the light. small budsites on a vertical branch, will transform into their own cola once the branch is laid on its side. Instead of a Christmas tree type of plant, with one large main cola, and smaller and smaller buds as you move further down the plant, you end up with a bunch of colas that are all close to the same size, and more importantly, the same level of maturity. The SCROG method, combined with super cropping, and defoliation has greatly increased my yields. As the plant is getting worked into the net, I'll defoliate where necessary, ie a huge fan leaf covering bud sites, however for the next several weeks I'll be defoliating so mush every night or two, systematically trimming off all fan leaves, and stripping everything below the net, and any small bud sites that wont produce well. Usually by the time I'm half way through the flower stage there are no big fan leaves left to be found. It helps with light penetration, which results in a higher quality, higher quantity yield, as well as airflow, which will help prevent White Powdery Mildew and other molds etc. Once a fan leaf is 14 days old, its ability to photosynthesize light, starts to degrade. Once it reaches a certain point, the leaf drains more energy from the plant, than it's giving the plant. My best yields have been from heavily defoliated plants, my last grow I couldn't physically defoliate quite as heavily as usual, and I ended up about 25-30% less bud than expected

She still stretching and making new bud sites. Almost as high as the other auto that were started a week weeks sooner. Lots of rain this week only fed with compost tea once after topping off with the spent tea grinds. Added some kelp and cal mag to make the tea 700ppm.

What’s up y’all!!?? Week 9 got me getting antsy I can’t lie. The trichomes are very milky white. The leaves are turning a deep green and a few of them even turning purple. This grow is in a tent with a photoperiod which has just began flowering. For that reason the light cycle is 12/12 which isn’t ideal but I gotta work with what I have. I’m not expecting a crazy amount out of this grow because of the light cycle change but I think it’s doing well for the circumstances. I’m expecting a 12 maybe even 13 week finishing on this plant. The light cycle it’s on does slowdown the flowering stage just a bit. I have some lower branches which have popcorn nuggets. It’s not much so I’m not going to worry about cutting them. Especially not this late in the flowering stage. I find myself watering / feeding every other day. Maybe every 2 days.

Topped the other 2 branches and kept her pinned down, getting somebody nice growth going now, steady away nothing flash but it's all good. Not far off flipping her, probably a couple weeks.

Okey estoy pensando ya en pasar a la maceta definitiva dado que noto que la planta empieza a necesitar mas espacio, tengo planeado tambien hacer una poda apical

Bienvenidos cultivadores de marihuana clandestinos, y también, a los que tienen la fortuna de no serlo!🖐️👨‍🌾 Séptima semana de cultivo, bastantes cosas que contar y pocas fuerzas para hacerlo, porque estoy con una gripe fuerte, pero voy a intentarlo... todo por la causa! A principios de semana hice un riego profundo con dos Bio preparados que inauguro con esta planta, son preparados que he mantenido en fermentación anaeróbica desde que los hice al principio de verano, los primeros 30-45 días la fermentación es violenta, después se ralentiza, y para mi, cuanto más tiempo tarde en abrirlo es mejor, porque la disolución de los nutrientes y minerales es mayor. Las Enzimas del pasto fermentado y los Microorganismos de Montaña (sólidos y líquidos) que uso como inóculo hacen todo el trabajo. Puedes ver este proceso de creación de mis Bio Fermentos desde el inicio aquí: https://growdiaries.com/diaries/134104-grow-journal-by-defharo/week/782852 - Bio Blood EM: Esta fórmula la he pensado para aplicar en etapas tempranas de crecimiento vegetativo, como materia prima nutritiva he usado sangre seca, que es muy rica en nitrógeno orgánico, las enzimas y los Microorganismos convierten esa proteína en aminoácidos, estos, son directamente asimilados por la planta. - Bio Mealfrass EM: Con la disolución de los nutrientes de este guano de gusano de la harina (NPKMg...) y mezclándolo con el anterior Bio preparado obtengo un fertilizante muy poderoso y al tiempo que riego, inoculo Microbiología al suelo. Antes del riego añadí una buena capa de mulch semi descompuesto y con mucha microbiología, este mulch contiene hojas, raíces y otros mulch rescatados de plantas cosechadas. Después de 6 días desde el riego se puede apreciar el crecimiento y fortalecimiento de la planta. Cuando toque el siguiente riego, añadire las primeras enmiendas secas y completaré la capa de mulch... me voy a la cama 🖐️ ============== Info de la cepa Mendo T: https://www.thehighchameleon.com/es/shop/mendo-t-6#attr=202 - 85% Indica, 15% Sativa. THC: 18%. Floración: 8 Semanas.

got these clones of wedding cake from a local grow buddy, Thought I had room for them indoors but I was wrong. So outside they go for the year. They really wanted to reach for the sky indoors lets see how they do outdoors!

Grow is going well. Continue to struggle with cal mag deficiency. Simply can't give them enough cal mag. The smell is getting very strong. I think I am going to transfer the amnesia auto into a seperate container as it's developing much faster. This would mean taking down the make shift scrog net. Would appreciate input. Happy growing!

Ok, so I forgot to take any pics on week two and holiday time week 3 came up real fast. so we are going to skip over any of the week two details. just watered em and they grew. This week we did a nice little transplant into their final 2gal pots. Fortified with a bunch of amendments and Acti-Sol, everything is listed in the video. Any question just let me know. I don't age my medium at all and I think I should start doing this to avoid some other things, I just find it hard to do it in winter time indoors as soil can be stinky with amendments and I like it to stay in the tent under the carbon filter. Medium I used is 40% coir, 30% perlite, 20% compost, 10% vermiculite and 10% worm castings. Then the amendments are added into that at the rate of 30-60ml per 1Gal of medium. This batch has Gaia 4-4-4, Gaia Insect Frass, Giaia Diatomaceous Earth, Gaia Rock Dust, Acti-Sol Seaweed Meal, Acti-Sol Shrimp/Crab Meal, Acti-Sol 4-3-2, Acti-Sol 4-6-8 and Bokashi. Nice little mix, water it in with a bit of magnesium and microbes dissolved into the water. The bokashi should help break everything down and make a bit of a acidic environment for all the meals and rock dust to become available. Roots looked good, not a dense as some runs but still nice. I feel the soil might be a bit hot so will expect some burnage on them hopefully its nothing to crazy. Will ph down with a mix of citric, malic and ascorbic acids. They are in a rate of something like 50-60%/40-30%/5-10%, its written down in my of my notes just can't find the pad ATM. Also more videos vs anything this week. I like em more but processing them is annoying AF. Side note, my lights timer was on 12/12 not 16/8 so it explains why they went into bloom, switch it back and will top the plants next week one they start to reverse their ways and get comfortable in the new pots. Also got ride of the chive seed start as it was looking sad, plus I got a bunch of European chive varieties in the mail yesterday and want to try them out. see if they really have any different taste and what ones I like better. Till next week.

It's week five of flowering, and Divine Rapier continues to do very well. The buds are developing nicely. Unfortunately, the weather is not so nice at the moment, with hardly any sunshine and lots of rain. The temperature is only 19°C during the day.
