8 March

Harvest: Everything dried up to 347 grams + 96 grams of super high quality trim. Overall I am not too pleased with the smoke of the product. Although the bud size, bag appeal, smell and taste are pretty much all there, the shitty burn is a deal breaker for me and the majority of this weed is quite frankly useless. Another downside is while smoking I’ve found 4 seeds in an ounce from almost every strain. Light leaks? At least I learned a ton, including how to get super good burn for my next crop. I’m hoping that curing for a month or so will improve the burn but I wouldn’t really count on it. I have seen weed dried for 4 days with no cure and no flush smoke clean and not go out once. I have been told that the key to white ashes/clean burn is proper mineral content in the soil and there is tons of scientific studies on cigar ash going back 100 years. Plants grown in a medium with high levels of decomposing organic matter, phosphorus, magnesium, chlorine and heavy metal ratio tend to produce black/grey ash. Whereas plants grown in a medium with a higher ratio of trace minerals like calcium carbonate and potassium in the form of wood ash, rock dusts, oyster shell flour and lower levels of decomposing organic matter will produce a dense, uniform white ash that rarely goes out. But this is still all theory until I test it to confirm for myself a few times. My last few outdoor harvests did not improve with curing at all so I’m hoping this will be the missing link. Plain peat moss and coco clearly lack essential minerals that help burn. If said theory is correct I should find a synthetic nutrient line with more trace minerals. Makes me wonder if growing if rockwool/basalt rock could improve burn in a hydro setup. I think I did a fairly decent job for my first grow. I went wrong in a million different places but I still stuck it out and got some decent herb. Things went wrong early when I got black spot mold, nitrogen/magnesium deficiencies and powdery mildew. I corrected most of it but things didn’t get really bad until mid veg when I intentionally skipped a few feedings and defoliated quite heavily stunting the plants. I also didn’t even top or start LST until the 6-9th node which was really stupid and hurt my yield. My temperatures were all over the place from the learning curve. I was severely overwatering without realizing it. 100% peat moss is a shitty medium. I also fed way too late in flower (not what caused shitty burn). I also used synthetic nutrients in soil.

Como ha mostrado a lo laargo de estas semanas y meses, algo fuera de lo comun y en floracion no se queda atras. El color y grosor de tallos ya esta demas decir lo bien que andan, el olor (que es algo caracteristico de esta etapa de la planta) es muy fuerte y frutal. Estos pre-cogollos tienen una produccion de resina que esperemos se mantenga hasta el final....

This week I fed Tea ☕️ that consisted of my own worm castings from the bin I made a few months back, molasses for the microbes , and a chicken manure product from Coop Poop. I can already see the difference, unless that’s my mind playing tricks on me, but I like to think that it is working! I think my own castings are the real catalyst to new growth; both now as well as in the future! I did check the trichomes on the plants that seem to be entering senescence (final stage of life). They seem to be still somewhat clear, so I will wait at least another week to harvest. As far as everything else, it has been an easy, uneventful, grow! ☮️💚

9/8 D65 Seems our "good" weather is ending and if the forecast is correct for the next three days, only three of the last ten were sunny. That aint good folks not sure what can be done about it outside of artificial light and that would go on the ATF if any were available. Ah well learning is fun She looks good just needs some blasted sun Zombie is thriving, go figure Full feed yesterday 9/10 Sunless days continue, maybe two hours sun today then the rain moved in and the temp dropped... global warming my arse The forecasts were correct now I can only hope that continues as it is forecast for much better the next 2 days and then right back to this mess. 9/11 Yep today was a big improvement glad to have it 9/13 Day 70 New vids, top dressing seems to have triggered a new run of bud building on both Gloria and zombie Quasimodo (cant kill some of these Mex Air plants). The moster crop growth pattern is interesting as hell just letting it grow. Gloria looks to be building a basketball bud on top :) Weather degrading harvest in a couple weeks max trics say same

Flower is in full effect. Day 43 - LST just to pull some little stuff up into the light. Day 44 - 3 cups clean PH: 6 T:20°C Day 45 - lots of bud sites starting to explode Day 46 - seeing some yellowing tips with brown spots like last grow. Positive that the light is getting to them. Moved light to 23" Day 47 - 6.5 cups of nutrient solution PH: 6 PPM:479 T:20°C Day 49 - bent down the main cola because it was creeping up too high and I didn't want it to burn. It was really nerve-wracking. Thank God it didn't snap. Opened it right up too! So many bud sites on this plant. Getting excited. Thanks for stopping by! 🥦

This is my first hydro grow and first time with clones. I have a few semi successful outdoor grows under my belt but the weather (hot AF) and caterpillar apocalypse (lost a beast of a plant and the tops of most others) last year are forcing me inside. Reservoir is an hdx 27 gallon tote with 15 gallons of actual water capacity about 1/4” under net pots. Attached to 1/4 hp active aqua chiller (overkill but got a deal and am in so cal; last years consistent 100+ temps ravaged my outdoor grow and can even make indoor temp regulation difficult) with two 5” and one 4” air stones in main res and one 4” in a 5 gallon top off res (not part of the system until/if I need it) attached to two 15L/minute active aqua air pumps. I wanted to have a bit of a barrier between the ambient temps inside the tent (rest of the room is a/c controlled) and the actual reservoir so I built a base to set the tent sans bottom putting the top of the res at the floor of the tent. This also raises the reservoir off the ground and hoping it will save some back aches once scrog comes into play. This also frees up 16” of vertical space inside tent and although I intend to scrog it should help as a buffer with temps and I won’t have to worry about light distance since plants are at floor level. To keep as much unnecessary heat out of the 4x2 tent the spider farmer light ballast was removed and relocated to outside the tent which I’m glad because during testing the ballast and light are each producing 120 degrees. Half of that is outside the tent allowing the temps inside the tent to stay about around when room temp is about 78 (a/c off but weather is fluctuating) with a small fan at base level and a 6” clip on fan for higher up. Reservoir will be 66-68 at all times thanks to the chiller. For ph management I am going to be using a torus hydro perfect ph (35 gallon). I’m hoping their claims aren’t just hype because they say it removes H+ and OH- ions to allow the ph to maintain 5.8 - 6.2 ph (without any additional buffers). This small fluctuation allows all nutrients to be taken in while a stagnant ph will prevent certain nutrient uptake hence a more complete usage. These are claims among others they made, let’s see if the science is legit. Unfortunately this being my first hydro grow I have no standard to base this off, but if I don’t have to worry about my ph that’s one less worry. Nutrients will be GH flora trio and cal-mag plus hydroguard. Not sure about additional additives, want to keep it pretty basic but suggestions for this nute/strain combo would be appreciated. I was intending on growing wedding cake or venom og but cake was sold out and venom didn’t look great so I ended up coming home with two gelato clones from universal nurseries. I’ve always liked this strain but wanted the cake because I’ve read it’s highly resilient. What I was not expecting was that these would be rooted in neoprene. I’m new to hydro and aside from the research and reading throughout my grows I usually overlooked neoprene. I guess it could be better than the rock wool as it shouldn’t leach and mess with ph? They are surrounded by hydroton and will be hand watered until roots make it to water. Update day 6: I went against my better judgment and initially painted my lid for light leakage. Ended up dumping my entire reservoir two days in because it was full of paint chips (even though it was formulated for plastic it still chipped off in high volume). Used a drill pump from HD, worked well as the intake is a 1/4” pvc tube I could suck up the paint chips and the water, but DO NOT USE to transfer anything but waste water as the output contained grease from the pump! Got a new lid and will just be using panda film for light blockage. Added a small humidifier because rh was in the 30-40 range, now temps and rh are consistently 70 degrees and about 65%. Nutes are 1/4 strength except calimag due likely to stoned math... Plants don’t seem to be minding so I’m not trying to sweat it much. Slight upward drift in ppm and ec as water is taken in or evaporates and ph is slowly swinging in the range torus hydro said it would so that is a success as I have not used any buffers. They claim it is more effective when it can directly interact with a root mass so it seems promising. New growth sprouting all over but no roots have made it out of the net pots. I went with 6” hoping roots will branch laterally exposing move root mass to the air gap once developed. Started noticing slight yellowing of leaves day 4 and some drooping (due to low rh as they perked up after adding humidifier) so I went from 50ml top feed daily to 100ml, also turned light down to 15% and everyone is happy.

Guava Sundae – Week 4 (Fast Buds Outdoor 2026) The weather has been fantastic again this week, so Guava Sundae is now 100% outdoors, day and night. She’s getting maximum sunlight and really seems to enjoy the full outdoor life. As you can see in the pictures, she grew a bit crooked. I hope she straightens out soon. I used some simple sticks for support, but I’m still looking for a better long-term solution. She’s now around 7 cm tall with a beautiful vibrant green color. I also gave her a light feeding of BioBizz Fish-Mix and BioBizz Calmag. I had deficiency issues last season, so I’m being proactive this time to keep her healthy. Any tips on how to straighten her out are very welcome!

Super strong strain, large yields and production without much investment or maintenance, really happy with her, she turned out to develop 15% thc, having low consumption lights im more than satisfied

Couple days ago the Autoflower started producing couple pistils.

Update week 4 Bloom

¡Hola! Esta fue la 8va semana de floración. La planta formo de manera rápida muchos mas tricomas de los que tenia la semana pasada. De hecho, que haya tenido tantos pistilos y pocos tricomas me estaba preocupando, pero estos se desarrollaron muy rápido esta semana. Como ya nos estamos acercando al corte, estoy regando solamente con agua, mas allá de que con cultivos 100% orgánicos no sea necesario, me gusta bajarle un poco la carga al suelo para mejorar mas aun los sabores que nos otorga lo orgánico. Las fotos corresponden al ultimo día de la semana, el sábado 03/04/2021. No estuve muy inspirada, así que las fotos son aburridas. Hay fotos que la planta esta en otro lugar, ya que la movi abajo de un techo porque hay pronostico de lluvia para esos días, y es importante en estas semanas criticas que no estén bajo una tormenta. Esto ha sido todo. Cualquier sugerencia es bienvenida. Saludos!!

Just a little fly by...

Week 3 😈 I cut the top of all these babies 2 days before I have to put more soil next days in the 6L pots Hope u gonna enjoy 👍🙏

That was the first and definite not last grow of Greenhouse Seeds Lemon Orange. She has grown very wide with strong and heavy branches, buds also really crazy exploded. The taste should satisfy every fruity lover out there , the high is uplifting , not too much body, for me a pretty nice allday smoke. I also find a medical aspect in it , i suffer under depression and it gave me nice moments. Update: After a time with it , i'm even more convinced, it also give me energy to get started / going. I thank Arjan and all Greenhouse employees, especially Georgia from CS , for this wonderful plant.

Hi Growmies , I am going to journal thisblady as she is my 1st ever self made seed I have grown. I have dropped bagseed into cups and watched them sprout thenblet them keep over and die off in the past but never an actual Cross i produced. Her father is from a previous grow here , Barneys Farm Blue Gelato 41 who threw out some pollen at 3 weeks flowering and also gave some perfect seeds and pods at 3 weeks flower !!!! Very odd but didnt hermie the whole plant but the pollen hit the lowers of the other 8 strains so I have some very promising cross seeds that look very striped and chubby. This cross is Him and a Barneys Gorilla Skittelz Mother who only dropped about 20bseeds all together. I managed to seperate around 8 more of this batch and here we have #1. There is another cross growingnwithba friend that is killing it so I am hopeful now. So far she has been topped at her 5th and stripped her #1 node only. I plan to 6 way her mains and thicken them with tip spreading . I lived the mother strain for her dense buds and the gelato was going beautiful till I culled her for the pollen worries. The very early harvest( 4 week flowering) had me gutted and shockingly the smokable buds from it had a hit to them that was way better than their age should have had them at. I do think the crosses will be a great combo

Tenemos 3 fenos diferentes 2 de ellos muy marcados cada 1 de un parental de la versión no auto de Triton Biscotto Lime, como son Lemon Tree 🍋 [olor a SLH exagerado, (la más rapida)] y OreoMintz 🍪 [olor muy fuerte(la más "bajita" pero más avanzada en floración)] el último feno Kush más terroso proveniente de la Panty Punch Auto 👊(la más fina de momento) En general encantado y asombrado con el desarrollo de las 3, llevan poda de bajos en los 2 primeros nudos y limpieza de internudos y chuponas interiores en la parte baja 🍃
