flush time.

day 30/31 for the ladies

At the beginning of this week, I have been fighting the gnats, which are less and less now. Just some watering and gradually lowering the light and going to full power. The Orange Hill Special has been filling out great and I must say, she is a pretty plant. With some manual bending and super cropping, I'm bending the longer stalks sideways and we are off. What I actually do is more of an intuitive hybrid between mainlining (where I bend the whole plant 90 degrees at the third week), LST (where I bend branches outward slightly, without tying), HST / Super crop (where I bend the stems 90 degrees with the clips or manually), after which I keep bending outward to SOG and, put the net over to end in SCROG. This same method gave me the canopy in my prize-winning Gelato 33 grow. Check it out if you haven't seen it, it was my first experimental accident that led to beta test of Super Soil mixture 0.7, now we are at Alpha version 1.00 and testing great so far if I say so myself. I haven't seen such lush greens in my own grows, only outdoor. They seem uber-healthy and resilient, with very sturdy stems and leaves. Way more resilient than previous strains I tested in the beta soil. The light is performing, the natural color of it makes everything pop. Mars Hydro has a winner with the SP-3000. Check out their site: www.mars-hydro.com Thank you @MarsHydroLED for letting me test it, hook them up for a great deal or info on their products! Halfway through this week, I took the clips out, AND...... we switched them to go into flowering. After a day the stretch is already visible. I had to bend them again after a couple of days. Now we have almost a tent filling foundation for a maximum result canopy of buds. I was wanting to amend the soil with flowering additions (see recipe in yellow image), but I'm holding it off for two reasons. A/ The leaves are still so green and lush, I think there is an abundance of nutes. B/ @Haoss mentions his suspicions on his OHS grow (@#CannapediaProGrowersCup Orange Hill that very sadly went hermie on him) that nutrition in this phase could have had an influence, after asking what happened to him. I would have loved to see that grow to full harvest. But it makes me a bit cautious. if Haoss (whom I consider to be one of the star growers here) couldn't prevent this, what chance have I? I'm waiting until the girls start asking for nutrients. They'll show me what they need in their own time. For now this soil is the shizzle (also quite literally) and Im happy with how everything is going. I remember much more hassle and steering in the last grow. This grow, even the Gorilla runt seems happy. I now water them 3 liters of water / Perma tea mixture every 4 days, every 3rd watering I don't do the tea. This makes for fewer gnats and this soil seems to hold water nicely, also due to the hydro corn. What I like is there is always some unforeseen circumstance, a tilt of the tables, some battle to be fought which delivers in big harvests or, in worst case, no harvest at all. It makes it more exciting, when your heart is at stake, we pour a lot of love and attention in the ladies. So with hopes, but not too high, we go into flowering. Thank you all for joining me again in this Orange adventure! I hope you all had great weeks, germed seeds, extreme growth and buds bursting with trichomes!! See you next week! Hug Bud PS Sunshine made her first appearance, as she promised on the Gelato 33 grow. She is still a bit camera shy, so her digital alter makes an appearance first, if you all want to see more of her and my other helpers, let me know in the comments. Sunshine will make a real appearance if yall are real nice to her.

Buds starting to grow throughout the room now having afew issues across the board on all plants with yellowing leaves and have concluded it is mag deficiency so will add call mag now see if they peek up until next week!

CONTEST SWEETSEEDS DARK DEVIL AUTO GROWER ALIEN WEEK 7

Diese Woche wurde die Apple Strudel defoliert und Pound Cake etwas weniger . Man merkt das die Pound Cake 2 Wochen weiter ist anhand der Blüten Bildung. Sagenhaft das Pound Cake auto nur Leitungswasser ohne PH bekommt wegen ihrem Dopesoil. Echt gamechanger !es macht mir so Spass. Heute 31.01.2025 wurden nightshoots von Pound cake auto hinzugefügt!!🤞🏼🤞🏼🧑🏼‍🌾🔥💚🧑🏼‍🌾

Day 36, 15.05.2024 - The week starts with no real action but to double check the position of the branches within the trellis net. No surprise here, that the manual "rerouting" is getting lesser and lesser. The branches found their spots! - We start the week at 38cm height. I think we look at another week of stretch, but it already feels like slowing down. Day 37, 16.05.2024 - a round of drinks to the ladies: 600ml each inkl. Nutrition according to plan. Next watering might be on the weekend. Day 38, 17.05.2024 No action today besides taking a couple of close-up pictures for documenting things. Both are looking fine. Soil is dry, next watering tomorrow morning. Day 39, 18.05.2024 A round of drinks with nutrition: 600ml each inkl. BioBizz Grow, Bloom and TopMax Day 40, 19.05.2024 No real action today. I pre-rendered the timelapse for the running week (5 days in 1133 Pictures :D ) and noticed: The stretch ended more or less in the end of day 37. You can see it clearly that there is no significant grow since then. So from now on all the nutrients will be used to build up the buds which is I guess a nice milestone! Soil is getting dry again - watering will happen in the morning I guess. Jeez, they are thirsty these days! Day 41, 20.05.2024 Gave the ladies a drink right after sunrise (at least to them) at about 1800. Both look good, nothing much to do I guess. Day 42, 21.05.2024 No action today but to close the week with uploading a timelapse video. Enjoy!

This grow gets a ten out of ten from me on behavioral attributes on how she grew through out all the stages of life. Vegging was an absolute pleasure, she thrived off the 125g of amendments, cal-mag, and kelp all the way to day 30. Once I noticed flower development I proceeded to give her, her first feeding of grow and bloom nutrients both at the same time @ a diluted mixture of 25% then proceeded to increase increments as needed into flower, cutting out the grow after two feedings. She has been to date one of the cheapest grows I've ever had, all that's left is to harvest, cure and smoke for the final conclusion on 3 bears auto from Mephisto. Hats off to the boys over there! All this did was get me excited to grow the remaining Mephistos I have stored away!

Week 3 💨🔥 4 out of 5 topped 👌 Waiting on 1 to kick on abit before topping or anything, I may just let her do its own thing and train the other 4 but well see Now we wait for some more growth on the nodes and then begin some LST 👽🏆

Happy with the color this plant is pushing out 🤩 can’t wait for the day it’s all said and cured 😮‍💨

Beautiful buds super sticky✂️ Delicious smell something new to me! Cant Wait the curing to taste this beauty

Last week for these strudlesss! 🔥 I chopped the small one a few days ago and has been drying out was frosty as!! Few more days and stems should be snappy Other 2 look fatty! Covered in trichomes! Can see a couple of Amber's so Overdrive this week and then onto final flush with Flawless Finish. Smell is really good! Cakey sweet bakery! 😋 Temp 24 day 19 night Humid 45% 👊👽👊

* Watering 2l every 3 days, no nutrients * Always tuck in the leaves to expose lower tops * Check the trichomes for amber * When amber leave the plant 2 days in darkness before harvest

A new week ... A new Luck ....

Had concerns over damping off towards start of the week as seedlings tall leggy and leaning over, reduced light height to 8 inches and increased power to 60%. Last time I grew autos the light was a lot lower and whilst good yield nice smoke they were very bushy and short and stocky so experimenting a little with light height this time to increase spacing between nodes, 20 inches was way too far, being careful though as lights 450w, brill light spider farmer but gotta watch power a bit. The drop in light height and introduction of small fan making the plants wobble slightly has dramatically improved their strength and thankfully no damping off. Extraction fan on permanently set to 1 or two so low settings, nice air flow. Also sealed a couple light leaks so plants are getting their restorative darkness for 6 hours a day and overall touch wood looking fit and healthy. Pleased with the amount of growth after two weeks. Very light touch with nutes and watering at mo, .4 litre daily with root juice and bio heaven promote healthy organic soil. Fingers crossed so far so good. Happy growing all. :)

Hello I hope everybody is doing alright, this last week has been good ive been busy, Sorry for a few days late! I had to build some.shade out here for the ladies. Using a 50% shade cloth. I want to make sure this ladie can finish out. As its already been a long road!! Super thankful for these days! Loving the smell of the diamond Belle. Subtle but dank and sweet 😋

😋 Buds gaining weight. 🔥 Stoped burn by potassium (K) but marks remained on the older leaves. ✂️ I'll make last defoliation in the injured leafs. ✌️🎃 Thank you for checking my cultivation.
