So, eventful week. Prior to putting my seeds into my system, my light and rdwc system was left on as I was dialling in the growing environment before placing the seeds as a final home. My only issue was I had a light leak BEFORE putting the foil top covers on the clay pebbles. Long story short, I got algae which ended up turning to root rot. I spotted it very swiftly and did a res change adding beneficial bacteria to the system along with the base products of remo nutrients. A few days later new growth and recovery is taking place. Day 16- Fully back on track, new roots shooting out into the water and the growth rate has picked up as it should. Foliar feeding twice a day for a little boost until the root system establishes a bit more. Huge changes in just a day. Can't wait to see what a week's growth looks like. Really loving the sunset/sunrise feature on the trolmaster, something I got to experience watching recently! Watching by closely to make sure everything stays in track. Stay tuned for the next one 😉

This week was good, trying to give transiting plant as much light expo. as possible......also removed most of the smaller bud site........the one that is in full flower mood is super healthy n green gonna start packing size from next week on a (k) diet

02.05. F22 Flower Day 22 – Increased Nutrient Demand The plants are now deep into the flowering phase, with bud stacking clearly progressing across the canopy. Growth remains strong, and nutrient demand has noticeably increased. Today, Bactrex and Orgatrex were applied according to the schedule to support microbial activity and nutrient availability. The canopy has become quite dense, with multiple smaller branches receiving limited light. A defoliation and cleanup will be carried out to improve airflow and redirect energy to the main bud sites. The Autopot system continues to run consistently, and the BioTabs setup is performing very well. Overall, plants are healthy, vigorous, and showing strong development.

For each: Mycotrex > 4 grams ~10cm deep below seed and 1g around seed 4 gallon/ 1 day old not PHed tap water for starters -------------------------------Deutsch---------------------------------------------------- Jeweils: Mycotrex > 4g ca. 10cm unter dem Samen verteilt und 1g direkt darunter 15 Liter Smart Pots 1 Tag abgestandenes Leitungswasser ohne PH Regulierung zum angiessen 2020-11-10: all three seeds show signs of life

She’s starting to flower up real nice smell is starting to get strong top dressing with natureslivingsoil autoflower concentrate

Sooo she's flipped into flower and shes growing amazing.. would expect any different from thsi strain. She's going to start filling out. Was expecting more of a stretch but maybe there's still time. Started her on bloom now so only good things to come.

Good start, one of girls is bit smaller, but it's not big problem now. Started adding nutrients. Be optimistic!

How is it growing, my fun(k) loving friends? ***INFO*** For more on my setup, why it was monster cropped, and how I made the canopy, see Germination page and subsequent weeks. They had 48 hrs of darkness, and the time has come to say goodbye to my friends. I thanked them again, spend some time with them, and under the sound of Amazonian shaman's harvest and healing songs (will post link), asked for their gifts, and apologized for taking their lives. I do this while in contact with the plants, touching, smelling them, observing every detail, no thoughts, just in the present moment. I feel emotional as I do this and remember how they were a companion, a source of distraction in a time of worry, sadness, and loss. How they already comforted me and kept me company in a time of painful insights about honesty, commitment, and staying true to myself. I thank them again for their wisdom and gifts, viva Santa Maria, viva Planta Maestra, may the mother of all beings give us healing and protection. And I proceed with the harvest as I visualize my intentions with every cut. Branch by bud laden branch is tenderly untangled from the scrog net, taken with a clean-cut and immediately hung upside down in the grow tent, which will now double as a curing and drying room. A couple more weeks and we will have the final cured and dried weight. More photos and movies will follow, this is where we are so far!! Thank you for checking in on our journey, all the love, support, and compliments were a true motivation, a very needed distraction, and guidance for me and for Sunshine. Big hug, lots of love and take care! ***UPDATE*** The final weigh-in is ready. I hadn't seen them in a week, because of my vacation. The humidifier I set up, had failed. So the grow had dried in 7 days, what I wanted to be 14 at least. Thankfully, its Sativa ancestry shines through, the smoke isn't harsh, the buds a sticky and smelly, no hay smell at all. We ended up at 246 grams, excluding a shitload of larf and popcorn bud, totaling at 310 grams all in, a first at a gram per watt for me, but for the Zambeza seed competition, I stated we would only weigh the quality bud. Overall I'm very happy!! Guessed weights in the competition: - @hashy : 0 grams - @MrHyde : 198 grams - @JamMAKEcan : 224 grams - @TrickOrTrip : 260 grams - @Greeneysgrow: 312.5 grams - @Ohey_fu_kyu: 350 grams - @Puffs4Pipes: 385 grams - @Hempkid : 605 grams - @DoDrugs420 : 621 grams TrickorTrip was closest!! Congratulations!!! I will be contacting you to get the seeds with you!! Thanks for playing to all the others and better luck next time, I will give away some seeds again!! Summary: Cost of setup: 850 euro Cost of nutrients and soil: 125 euro Cost of seeds: None they were cloned Cost of power: 150 euros in the power bill Total cost: 1125,-- for setup and this run. I smoke for medical reasons and it's used for ritual and healing purposes, never to be sold, as it loses its magical properties. Should I have to buy Gelato of this quality at the dispensary that I frequent, it would cost me at least € 15,-- per gram. 246 x 15 = 3690 euros. also, 49 car rides of 25 miles there and back, 250 euros in gas saved. Overall conclusion: I think we can call this a succes. Made back my investment, my cost per grow and we saved the environment. Thanks for all the love, tips and support! Couldnt have done this on my first indoor LED grow, without you!! Wish you were here to smoke a fat one, some good conversation about our hobby and now... I'm hungry.... See you on the next one!!

Final update: Very happy to announce that this dairy had won the sixth place best diary of August 2021. My prize came in yesterday and I'm very happy!! Thank you Growdiaries!! Thank you Fastbuds!!! Thank you all my grow buddies here for the love and support!! Hope to see you all, maybe at a future Growdiaries Meet and Greet? Wouldn't that be a lovely idea, per country and a yearly one on a different continent every year? The Growdiaries Conference. Would be a great Hemp growers fair... I'll keep dreaming and light another one... Big hug BioBuds

Hi, I started my first cultivation with this fabulous Gorilla Glue Auto variety. I transplanted the sprout in subtrate I prepared by using it: 70% BioBizz Light mix 20% earthworm humus 5% coconut fiber 5% perlite 30g Nutrihemp 125g Gurumix At the time of transplanting I then added 1g of Mycor mix to the bottom of the hole. Now the seedling has 7 days of life I hope it can grow healthy and strong and give us an excellent harvest 😉

Hello Diary, After exactly 10 weeks, the Apollo F1 is ready for harvest. 79 days since I put the seed in the ground. 75 days since Apollo F1 rose from the ground. Great strain, I had no problems during all 10 weeks of growth and development. Finally, as seen in the photos, Apollo F1 is a feast for the eyes, the flowers are hard packed, full of trichomes. Even on the lower branches the flowers are very hard. For the last week, watering was usual, every three days. After cutting off the stem at the bottom, I put the plant upside down in the grow box to dry. Here's what the last week looked like. 02/07/2023 - Day 64. Watering. I watered the plant with about 2 liters of water. 05/07/2023 - Day 67. Watering. I repeated the procedure as I did three days earlier. 08/07/2023 - Day 70. Photography and harvesting. I put it to dry upside down and will leave it to dry for at least 2 weeks. That's it from me. I wrote everything I thought was important. If you have any questions related to this strain, feel free to write.

It seems like such a slow process to finish growing. I totally prefer the speed of growing shrooms. However I just finished pruning the girls. I'm not presently using any nutrients. I will be using various Advanced Nutrients in later stages. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Good day every one, The flowering is going on just perfect. New branches began to actively gain flowers. For additional stimulation of new flowers, I installed a household extra LED lamp. no problem with the PH at all , no problem with the PPM : thanks to Hesi.

Big nugs I’m excited for end weight, looking at 1.5-2oz update after dry i had 66.5g or just over 2oz!!

Partiendo una nueva semana vegetativa para nuestras fatbanana de ROYALQUEENSEEDS. Esta semana a sido movida, Trasplantamos, aplicamos apicales y supercropping. Ademas con la defoliación logramos una gran cantidad de nuevos ápices que ya reciben luz más que felices gracias al #spectrumboard de 75w (x2) de HEAVENGROWLIGTH. Alimentadas con WONDERLANDAGRONUTRIENTS.

This lady has come up very very fast, I cannot wait to see this lady become a beautiful bush, I hope you guys enjoy my work with this strain, you can find the other 2 phenos here on my page as well! Let's see what we can do this year! ❤️💚💛👨‍🌾

14th week, no more fertilization. I will give to this beautiful girl 2 more weeks, so I started flushing. Nothing changes except the fertilization stops. It receives the same amount of water 200 ml 2x a day. Leaves are getting yellow and the buds thicker. Strong, good smell, beautifully coated with THC and all looks good🤪Can't wait to taste this strain! ❤️ Wednesday: Last day of the 14th weeek She is beautiful, no comment it can be seen in the pictures and videos. Minimum 2 more weeks needed to be ready. May be 3. Tomorrow starts week 15. Her height is 43 cm in the end of the week.

This is the first day of the first week of flower in the first video and the 6th day of flower in the second video.. you can see me shit myself when I saw that one of my main top sights snapped from tying the branch down … the lights were using are lights we designed and are testing at the moment also we are trying to keep a good distance between the tops and the lights to keep the temps down around the bud sites ! You can tell there are a couple other strains thrown in there the one purple punch from Barney’s farm is just Caking on nodes upon nodes like it’s impossible to get light to them unless they are pulled down in really liking the structure of the ocean fruit and am looking forwards to the finish!
