12/1: She's scheduled for execution on Tuesday (maybe Wednesday) Hooray!😋 The bottom part of the closet seems empty with only 9 plants in there.. 😟 I cut the harvested plants up and put them into drying baskets in the top of my closet with a small oscillating fan on. I've got the temperature fluctuating between 68f and 75f and the RH is staying between 48% and 52%. To do that, I had to take down the small light in the top of the closet to fit the drying baskets up there. So, I moved the 3 shorter plants still up there, including the Stardawg, down to the bottom and put them on top of buckets. Now the bottom of the closet looks full again!😃 I'm anxious to finish up this grow so I can get busy growing the Fastbuds Fast Flowering Photo Testers!!! When I harvest the next 5, I'll flush the remaining plants really well and that will be all the flushing they'll get..I'll let them dry back out for a few days and harvest them. I've got to make some minor improvements to the garden (adding UV, blue and red/far red booster panels and intake fans) That should put me on track to start germinating them by mid-December if all goes well.

27.07.: Zu Beginn von Woche 6 habe ich mich dazu entschieden die G41 an dem Großteil der Triebe zu topen. Dadurch erhoffe ich mir einen buschigeren Wuchs mit mehr Trieben und mehr Zeit für die PBB in Größe aufzuholen. An den Schnittstellen, wo die Pflanze getopt wurde ist an einigen Stellen ein roter fast blutähnlicher Saft ausgetreten. Ich hab vorher noch nie gehört oder gesehen, dass das passieren kann und weiß auch nicht woher das kommt. Die PBB brauche ich nur kaum zu trainieren, da benötigt die G41 mehr Zuwendung. Da die Pflanzen größer und die Töpfe mit der Zeit immer trockener werden, verlängere ich die Gießzeit auf 5 min. 28.07.: Heute sind mir zum ersten Mal die Stempelhaare an der PBB aufgefallen. Sie ist also schon bereit für die Blüte. Ich denke, das liegt daran, dass die PBB eine fast flowering Sorte ist. Sie muss aber noch warten, bis sie ihren Platz vollständig ausgefüllt hat. 30.07.: Beide sind gut gewachsen. Die PBB konnte gut gegenüber der G41 an Höhe aufholen. Jetzt sind sie fast gleich groß. Ansonsten gibt es nicht viel zu machen oder bemerken. 01.08.: Zum Ende von Woche 6 habe ich das Scrog Netz installiert. Die kommende Woche werde ich die Triebe immer wieder unter das Netz stecken, damit niedrigere Triebe aufholen können und ein möglichst einheitlicher Wuchs entsteht. Bei der G41 gefällt mir die Anzahl der Triebe schon sehr gut, bei der PBB ist noch Luft nach oben. Ich befürchte allerdings, dass bei der PBB nicht mehr sonderlich viel passieren wird. Nächstes Update ist dann in Woche 7.

Gave her a haircut at the beginning of the week, buds are fattening up quick. Im seeing noticeable changes daily. Increased light on time by 3 hours to 23 hours on. Feed has changed with the addition of Cycos swell (2.5ml/L) and Supa Stiky (2ml/L) and removal of potash plus. All to aid in the development of the phattest buds possible 😁 End of Week: Noticed rust spots on some fan leaves ref grow question. Gave her a flush of PH'D water and Kleanse as it was time to anyway dialed the Bloom A + B back a little to 2ml/L. Let's see how she picks up. Just starting to notice frosting on some of the sugar leaves.

A los 21 dias se realizó transplante definitivo a maceta de 7 litros a las 25 plantas,ya todo el cultivo mas homogéneo va tomando mas fuerza y mejor forma.

Finite finalmente le prime 2 settimane di fiore, da ora in poi ci sarà la parte cruciale. Ha un odore abbastanza forte molto dolce ,molto fruttato e tropicale. Assomiglia come a Mango, Banana o frutta tropicale comunque. Le cime apicali si stanno ingrossando e diventano dure, spero che questa settimana si vedano di più anche quelle più basse. Giorno 1 leggera defogliazione Giorno 4 verrà annaffiata con 2L di acqua a 700ppm

After another week of waiting, she finally decided to bloom. In the next few days i‘m going to change the water and add more nutrients. First experience with silicia. We‘ll see 😋🏻

Feeding nutrients for flower boost.

Day 16 – Strengthening Outdoors Begins Today marks the 16th day for my CBD Auto 20:1 from the 420 Fast Buds collection. The little warrior is continuing to show good progress! After a few days of gradual hardening off, I started taking the plant outdoors twice a day – once in the morning and once again in the afternoon – to introduce it to real sunlight and gentle outdoor conditions. Each session lasted around 30–40 minutes, depending on the temperature and light intensity. The weather has been quite typical for spring in Ramsgate: a mix of cloud cover with bursts of sun, with light intensity varying between 600–1100 μmol/m²/s. The plant seems to be adapting well – no visible signs of shock or stress so far! At the moment, I’m still cautious about leaving it out all day, as nights are still a bit too cold for such a young seedling. But I can already tell: the stems are starting to strengthen, the leaves are becoming slightly thicker, and the plant is gaining confidence facing the outdoor elements. This is a special project for me – a true budget-friendly outdoor grow, where I’m letting the natural light and environment shape the plant’s journey. No artificial supplementation – just patience, observation, and care. Looking ahead: In the coming days, if the temperatures stay kind (especially the mornings), I plan to gradually increase the time outside, and soon transition the plant to full outdoor life. Step by step, no rush. Overall feeling: Happy with the plant’s spirit and the direction this grow is taking. The bond between grower and plant grows stronger with every little sun session! Day 19 – Full Sun Adventure and Hydration Today marks a big milestone for my CBD Auto 20:1 plant – its very first extended outdoor session! The weather has been absolutely perfect, with bright, strong sunshine all day long, delivering a consistent light intensity above 1400 μmol/m²/s. Feeling confident after a successful hardening-off phase, I kept the plant outside from the afternoon well into the evening, enjoying the natural elements. To support the plant through this sun-filled day, I provided a generous watering with 1L of clean, pH-balanced tap water. I continue to carefully oxygenate the water before use, promoting healthier root development and stronger overall growth. The plant is responding beautifully: Leaves are vibrant and standing tall. Stem is gaining thickness and resilience. Overall growth structure looks compact, healthy, and well-adapted to natural light. I’m very pleased with the progress. If temperatures remain favourable tomorrow, the plan is to move the plant outside from early morning and allow it to enjoy the full day’s cycle under natural light – another important step towards full adaptation to outdoor life. One day at a time – and the journey continues! Day 20 – First Full Outdoor Day! Another big step forward for my CBD Auto 20:1 plant! Today, for the first time, I moved the plant outdoors for the full day to enjoy the natural sun and fresh air. The morning started strong, with a bright clear sky and an impressive light intensity of 1600 μmol/m²/s. The air temperature was a perfect 22°C, giving the plant ideal conditions to embrace the full outdoor environment. Observations: Leaves are standing tall and reaching toward the sun, showing excellent energy and adaptation. The stem is gradually thickening and strengthening, becoming more resilient with each day. No signs of stress or drooping, even under intense midday light. Environmental Conditions: Full sun exposure throughout the day. Light breeze, but nothing too strong – just enough to naturally strengthen the stem. This is a major milestone, and the plant looks truly happy and energetic! From here, the focus will be on gradually adapting it to full day-night outdoor conditions, allowing it to thrive naturally under the UK summer sun. The outdoor adventure has officially begun – and Sators is back in the race stronger than ever! Day 21 – Surviving the Heatwave, Growing Stronger Another exciting day for my CBD Auto 20:1 grow! The weather gave us a real test of strength yesterday, and my little warrior is showing amazing resilience. Conditions: Peak sunlight intensity: around 2000 μmol/m²/s – incredibly bright and intense! Temperature in direct sunlight: reached up to 35°C during the day. Nighttime temperatures still remain low, so for safety and steady development, the plant continues to be brought indoors overnight. Despite the daytime heat spike, the plant handled it impressively well: Leaves are vibrant and wide open, reaching confidently towards the light. Stem has gained more thickness, showing clear signs of strengthening after the outdoor sessions. No visible stress such as leaf curl, wilting or discoloration. Observations: The combination of intense sunlight and warm temperatures has definitely accelerated photosynthesis and growth rate. At the same time, careful night protection ensures no shock from the colder UK nights. Balancing between the power of the sun and the comfort of indoor shelter is paying off! It’s fascinating to watch the plant adapt to real outdoor forces day by day – it’s growing not just bigger, but stronger, smarter, and more resilient. The outdoor training continues… and so does the journey of “Sators” in this race!

Diese Woche habe ich mir etwas einfallen lassen damit ich nicht nur Photos hinterlasse sondern auch etwas über mein System erklären kann. Letzte Woche Sonntag habe ich einige Plants getoppt und sie schauen soweit ganz gut aus. Ich hatte leider letzte Woche he ein Problem mit dem Root Juice von Advanced Nutrients die Nährlösung in den Tanks ist gekippt. Ich habe es erst am zweiten Tag gesehen und habe sofort alles geputzt und Wasser gewächselt. Danach wieder alles eingestellt und läuft. Ph: 5.7 Ec : 0.9 Ich habe auch jeweils 20g Mineral Magic in die Nährlösung hinzugefügt und 1 Teelöffel davon um den Stil der Plants gemacht. In meinen 2 Videos findet ihr mehr dazu. Happy Growing :)

Flush

week 7 first flowering week when I finally discovered my princess was actually a prince. 12/12 flowermind ferts (6ml + 0.5g) LST + defoliation started seeing some thrips again, but just a few, nothing to worry so, the plant stayed for 4 weeks in the tent, under COB LED 200W.

Done

Hello Diary, Purple Lemonade has reached the end of the fourth week of flowering, 7 weeks since the beginning of the vegetation. I can already tell that we are slowly approaching the end, from next week I will be painting it on a black background. Purple Lemonade looks beautiful. It has large flowers that have covered the branches that are now slightly bent due to the weight of the flowers. The flowers are very hard and sticky to the touch. The main cola is completely covered in flowers and trichomes, it brings a smile to my face. The smell is now very intense, when I open the grow box, the smell takes over the whole room. The leaves are still a healthy green color, it is obvious that the new nutrients Bio Grow and Bio Bloom Fertilizer are doing their job. The conditions on the Farm are good, the temperature is around 28 degrees while the humidity is below 50%. Watering is still almost every other day, they still need a lot of water. I continued to add CalMg and Bio Bloom Fertilizer with each watering. I'm super happy to see how Purple lemonade looks, she really responded to my efforts to give her the best conditions I can. Here's a quick overview of the past week. 06/09/2024 - Day 44. Watering. I prepared 9 liters of water, added CalMg and Bio Bloom Fertilizer and lowered the p.H. to 6.0. With that amount of water I watered all three plants on the "Farm". 08/09/2024 - Day 46. Watering. I repeated the same procedure as two days earlier. 10/09/2024 - Day 48. Watering. Same procedure. 11/09/2024 - Day 49. End of the 7th week from the beginning of the vegetation, or the fourth week of flowering. Photographing and measuring the height of the plants. Purple Lemonade - Day 49. - 63 cm. That's all from me for this week, see you soon and thank you all for the comments and compliments.

Ok, so I forgot to update this last week. woops, I will try and remember all the details but im sure to be forgetting something. I decided to strip the plants a bit as I felt their bottom half under the canopy was a bit to thick and under performing It has a bunch of shity stems and buds trying to develop and they where looking sad and spindly, not enough light, If i had under canopy lighting sure that's fine I'd leave em and they would thicken up, but I don't; so they had to go. I selected defoliation as a techniques used but I did not touch anything in the canopy. only below it, it was all not performing well and would have just increased the risk of bad airflow and maybe rot come late flower. I also have been noticing more issues with the one plant then the others and my hydro shop guys said it need more feed, I don't know how much I agree with them about that, they do not grow with amendments but it was time for the topdressing anyways. I mixed up the stuff and worked it into the top soil of the plants outside on the deck, when watering it in I also mixed it with my hands, I found this helps hydrate the Gaia Green powders and prevented them from forming dry pucks in the top layer. I think I need to always do this morning forward with all top dressings as just mixing it into the dry soil then watering is causing to much resistance and the top layer then gets a little bit crusty and hydrophobic, but mixing in while watering at the same time has prevented that from what I can tell. I also gave them a bit of a liquid soluble calcium as the PH was creeping back up again and didn't want that to be locked out. It helped to green up some of the plants again still the one is a bit to yellow for my liking. The top dress consisted of AP 4-4-4, PB 2-8-4 and some IF 3-2-4 Mixed it all up with something else can't remember, probably fulvic acids and magnesium. I also did a bit of a calibration on my tools as well as I felt they might be off a bit. The EC was not to bad, off by 41ppm or 0.082EC vs the base solution, my unit is a 500 scale pen eg. 500ppm=1.0EC PH was a bit more off by PH 0.18 from the PH 4.01 calibration solution. I did not do a before for the PH 7.01 calibration solution as I started at 4.01 but its still close enough in the end at PH 7.03. The storage solution is almost always the same as the PH 4.01 calibration solution. In their manual it says if you don't have any storage solution just use the PH 4.01 calibration solution. I feel they maybe the same thing but one has red dye and some stabilizers in it. Who knows. O and when working on my deck garden I was upcycleing the old cannabis growing mediums into the planters from the strawberry tent grow off, the one shaft from an older plant was purple inside when I broke it. It sat outside all winter so who knows what it was, I'm guessing its just anthocyanins or something similar. Big shoutout to Medic Grow for sponsoring the lighting in my tent, They have provided me with 2x Mini Sun 2's in the 240w configuration, They use the v1 growing spectrum that is a all purpose seed to harvest spectrum so their is no hassle of switching it mid grow.
