Hello to you from Russia, my friends from around the world. I thank all those who follow my progress and support me. Good luck! It's time to update my 13-week diary. I plan to make a harvest in a week, the plants are already fully talking about their ripeness. In General, things are going well for me, but due to weather conditions, the trip to the guerrilla cannabis plantations is postponed indefinitely. But I don't have to water them. Soon I plan on growing a new diary when the postal service delivers me new seeds and fertilizers for clones.

Hi everyone :-) This week the buds developed super ;-) All are beautiful 😍. Super genetics 👍. Blue Cheese pheno 1 is slowly coming to an end :-) This week I will start to use up the remaining nutrients and harvest in 10-14 days ;-) Everyone else needs something else :-) have fun with the videos, stay healthy 🙏🏻 and let it grow 🌱

19.5cm/7.75" growth this week! Her flowers have developed very fast over this week.

Too much darky? Stop nitrogen for a while....

This one is foxtailing hard lol. I think it's ready like the malana bomb as there is some amber on the calyxs. Should be cutting boxing day. Smells sweet as the name suggests looking forward to taste.

31.12.24: I have been readjusting the LST pegs and wire daily. Sometimes, twice a day! (I know, too much time on my hands)! 😆 The plants have responded fantastically! I'm so glad I gave it a go. Some plants have been a bit too tall, and I snapped Do-sì-dos P3, pulling the stem down. Audibly snapped 😬I let it be, though. It seems to have healed mostly, in only 2 days. I have increased the lighting to 70%. They're getting watered a few times a week, with 1 litre of Dechlorinated water, containing the following nutrients and additives; 1ml of Biobizz Bio-Grow, 1ml Biobizz Top Max, 1ml of Biobizz Bloom, 2ml of cal-mag, 1g of Ecothrive Biosys. The plants are responding well to this concoction, so it's all good so far. The leaves are looking greener and are getting darker. Will be monitoring to continue readjusting the LST ties. Also, to monitor the increased lighting level, to make sure they can handle that yet. 1.1.25: Happy New Year! I have continued to readjust the LST wire and plant pegs. Several times a day. Coincidence would have it, I have a 6ft tropical aquarium which was time for cleaning! I always water my Acer tree in the front yard with this water, with beautiful results 😍 👌 🍁 I decided to try it out in my indoor garden. I'll post photos of before and after to see the difference, good or bad 😅 3.1.25: Plants are doing very well, except for PPP3 I'm quite disappointed in that one, as I feel like it's wasting a space. I guess I'll have to keep it, along with the Do-sì-dos that I snapped twice, which refuses to die 😅 I started to lightly defoliate, which is difficult because I always get carried away with it. I'm going to water again with the nutrients in description of this week. 4.1.25: Unfortunately, P3 did not make it 😕 however P1 is doing well, so that's good. I had an extra space due to this and filled it with Gorilla Cookies Autoflower, check it out if you like 🙂 Continuing to defoliate and adjust the LST pegs and wire. Watered today with 1ltr of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.0. With the following nutrients;- 2ml Biobizz Bloom, 4ml Biobizz Bio-Grow, 2ml Cal-Mag, 2ml Ecothrive Flourish, 0.2 g/ltr of Ecothrive Biosys. I've increased the Nitrogen by adding double the amount of Biobizz Bio-Grow. I'm trying to keep them growing for as long as possible! I really want to keep the strength up and keep the leaves nice and lush green! 💚 Will update here with more photos and videos. Thanks for checking out my diary 🍃 ✌️

Well guys first day of week 3 and she gets her head cut off, dont worry she didnt feel much pain and I soothed her with a little song to ease her pain nana nana nana nana BATMANNNN. Let's see her recover over the week and boost her stems forth so I can start bending and building a shape for her

Another solid week at the sauce garden I’m stoked on these girls they all smell amazing, my favorite being the watermelon skittles it smells like grape pie and the lemon autos have a citrus smell to them. The 12/12 watermelon skittles is doing better than I thought she would she’s already full flower mode on her 5 week. Sorry I missed last week I was too busy then.

First week is over. Overall it going well. 4 of the 6 plants are excelling; super boof auto and gorilla z auto). The 2 strawberry gorilla autos are not doing very well. Right now for strawberry gorilla, I believe some of my issues may be genetics specific. Both plants exhibit same issues. Each one is in a different medium. The only constant is strawberry gorilla auto genetics. I am going to continue growing them for another week to evaluate options. One I am fairly sure is going to die. The other, while overall looking terrible, has some new growth starting that is a better healthier green. Hopefully it is just a rough first week. But these are autos. A rough start usually means a rough entire grow. Not necessarily that they will keep having issues, but due to short fixed veg time frame, these 2 have significantly lost growth time. The DIY IoT automation side of this grow/project is progressing nicely. I worked on the PAR sensor and have no deployed it for its first 24 hour “soak test” to ensure optimal operation for 24+ hours. If the soak test last, it means it’s pretty much ready to be deployed. The PAR sensor is quite good if I am being honest. I was able to verify my ss550 LED at ~1000 umol/s it is rated for at a specified height. Now is when these sensors start providing real value. First week of growth always requires low light levels/high light height to accomplish providing somewhere around 150-250umol for seedlings. Without the PAR sensor to use at the beginning, I do what I always do and adjust height and light levels. Unscientific, but it’s how most growers are doing it due to PAR sensors like apogee for the dli500/600 PAR sensor starting at 5+ and anything below this range usually is not a true PAR sensor and no longer of value outside of “consistency” checks. They are lab grade, they are meant to be, this explains their price. Apogee and other comparable sensors are also spot checkers. They are used to check, validate and log, but they are not meant to do it fast or at a rate that is useful beyond average DLI. They can’t be integrated into automation systems. They largely are siloed devices that work alone and must manually transfer logs for analysis. The Dfrobot PAR sensor is a real time, continuously polling, connected, that can be interacted with in real time and used to control automation. It is also industrial grade with ip67 rating compared to apogees ip65 (it’s a spot check probed not meant for automation integration). Basically, apogee are amazing sensors, but they fundamentally are unable to do what I want. This Dfrobot par sensor, while not lab grade, is nearly lab grade, which in turns bring the sensor significantly down in price compared to a “lab grade” sensor that cost 4x. I am not a researcher or a scientist. Lab grade is amazing, but I literally cannot abstract additional value for the statistically significant accuracy difference (remember statistics and our p value, statistically significant is often a very small number , but in the real world, it does not matter since I am not doing actual research nor needing perfect controls with only a single variable change. I am only one person. ;) Uhh… I think I got lost on a tangent, ultimately PAR sensor confirmed 251 umol/s, which is the maximum these should be getting. But 4 are thriving, 2 are not. I’m not adjusting the lights for the 2 struggling to the detriment of the others Now that the PAR sensor is running 24 hour soak test and about to be deployed full time, I’ll be focusing on the other two sensors; the 4 in 1 soil (ec, ph, soil temp, soil moisture) sensor and NPK sensor. All three of the sensors mentioned are connected by a single Ethernet wire for communication and power to simplify deployment. The 3 sensors will ultimately plug into a shared hub that allows for easy plug n play for these sensors and future ones. Hopefully by next weeks post I’ll have full logging of all sensor data to my timescale database which will store all sensors logged data for future analysis.

Run-off got pretty high on the plants in the main tent when I tested it this week (2300ppm) so I flushed the plants down to around 900 over a few water events with half-strength nutes (~450). I think this, plus (mainly) the plants being too close to the LED caused them to throw some foxtails - particularly the middle plant (although I still think that spindly shit is also partly due to the bag seed pheno). Noob mistake on my end and I didn't realize until it was too late. Now the light is turned down and the run-off is back in a good range. It got high because my auto-watering halos were mostly running off the pots and not sinking in - this is because I filled the pots to the brim with coco (another noob mistake). Looks like I'm hand watering until harvest :) Big Mumma in the blurple tent on the other hand is still killing it.. Apologies for having to upload videos of the microscope - too hard to hold it still and press the button for photos lol.

First week of flower has been great! They’re stretching very nicely, I backed the nutrients down a little bit this week because I saw some leafs curling in when adding some bloom nutrients. But all is well. My critical +2.0 in soil is growing very well and keeping up with the canopy, the Alaskan Purple isn’t quite stretching as much.

Day 63-30/01/23 harvested #1 small but frosty

This girl is thriving and growing packing some weight on! Loving her development.

Tester FBPHP10 is a good plant to grow, easy going, fast growing, beautiful, fast flowering, frosty and quite tall. 😇 Down side: not mold resistant and terps are not really strong I had a lot of fun growing this variety! 💚💨 .. and smoking.

Flowering began and I really didn’t do much. A little bit of trimming…just wanted her to survive after my tough first weeks haha Soil was dry after every 2 days. So gave her 1l when dry. On day 6 she went to the window again as I’m not in my apartment

8/4: I decided that instead of taking them outdoors to the "solar surface bugstorm," I'm just gonna grow them and a few autos that popped when I was testing my new cloners as a seed germinator indoors in the closet. So...I went ahead and ordered a new carbon filter, set the timers and flipped them to 12/12. I'll continue to take the auto seedlings out for 24 hours of light for a while. I'm really digging the TPS ONE...makes life easy for an old stoner like me. I no longer have to remember whether I fed the last time or just watered...with this stuff, it's the same feed with every watering. 8/8: Preflowers on the more indica looking plants...all 4 of them..pretty sure they are the #10's, and preflowers on a couple of the other ones too.

Questa è la prima GMO che raccolgo, cime molto più dense rispetto alla runtz e sembra essere molto più pesante, tra qualche giorno raccoglierò l'altra e poi mancano solo le due più grandi

This was not a very diffecult plant to grow. I wanted to see how the plant was growing without training it. I didn't have luck on that because she grow so big, 3 times her size when vegged. Obviously very sativa. So in the end i had to bend the shit out of all the stems. After all the LST you could see she stacked up really nice and as time went by and she grew fatter and fatter. All the buds became top heavy and i had to tie everything so i didn't snap my branches. I think although it was maybe not the prettiest grow to watch the outcome is great. i cannot believe it myself. So because i had 2 plants in the room i had to devide the lights also in 2. That being said it is a lot of weed from 1 autoflower . So i can only say i am very happy with this. :-)
