Everything has remained the same for these three girls. I have been alternating with two feedings and then just water. They are really blowing up at this point and I am just loving how they are going to fill this tent. There is one plant I haven’t topped that still has eight mains because I didn’t think she likes the dose of nutrients but it’s still the same height and recuperating just fine. Thanks for stopping by and happy growing!!!
Auto grow #1
Chopped the first GG plant will update after it drys and I trim it. The cheese plant that isn't LST probably has another week or so maybe less. The rest have a few weeks slowly making more room in the tent. Only giving water for the rest of the time maybe some cal-mag to help the plants that at burnt (NL, both cheese).
Runtza deliziosa
Grower, ancora non l'ho provata.ma sono sicuro che è più che valida...vi farò sapere quando sarà pronta

Heute startet die Woche 7, hohe Luftfeuchtigkeit und hohe Temperaturen. Ist immerhin 10 cm gewachsen und supergesund. Hier und da mal paar Blätter und Mini Blüten entfernt und ein wenig Super Cropping.. Pre Flowering hat ein wenig eingesetzt. Die Madame Sour Jealousy von FastBuds soll nur wachsen nicht das blühen anfangen!
Fast buds first try
Always used the least amount of calmag if this specific plant and it was always darker green than I'd like but that's jus the picky plant

Finally flipped the lights over to flower mode and took the humidifier out of the tent. So far so good we are gonna keep watching to make sure we didn't over do the nuts. Don't want any Nut burn that can be annoying. make sure you hit the follow button

Operation: Fill The Tent
Hello everyone! Mimosa X Orange Punch is doing amazing she loves the environment I have set up for her. Might have to top dress with some power bloom soon as they are growing quite big and I have been very sparse in giving them to much nutes as I really didn’t want to give them nitrogen toxicity. Thinking about another 2 weeks in veg to really fill the tent out. I have tied down a lot of the branches to the trellis net to maximize the area, once they are where I want them I will untie them. Until next time growmies hope all your harvest are blessed with abundance of dank. ✌️ 07/24/23

 FastBuds - Pineapple Express CMH grow
Final week of Veg for my 2 Pinapple Express. These beautiful ladies have just started to show me their lady parts 😁 Everything going perfectly to plan thus far and FastBuds showing me the benefits of growing autoflowers. Lots of new growth appeared right before they start their stretch. I'd say theres over 30 bud sites on the biggest of the two plants and mabey 24 on the smaller one. Gives me plenty of space to spread them out under the net. After a week of stretching I'll be removing any growth that hasn't made it from under the net. Theres so much vegetation in the lower stalk area and i dont want any of that engery going to waste and making small popcorn buds. Feed wise they've suddenly become really thirsty. I was watering 6 litres every 3-4 days but this week they've urgently needed feeding after 48 hours. I'm going to keep a close eye and might even switch to everyday feed but slightly less at a time. Bloom nutrients from here on out. Check in mid week as I'll be updating pics as and when I get time or make any changes. Day 44 I've added a few extra photos of the full view in the tent. Canopy starting to fill out. These arent stretching too fast which I'm pretty happy about. Hopefully I'll be able to keep a nice even scrog.

I have a new light with a bloom setting hopefully that will make a nice flowering. Got a new fan for air circulation. The new light has cooling fans. Haven't noticed any burns so im happy with my order. If you look at the last few pictures my tent is home made and cheap very cheap. The lights not an expensive one but I think its fine for now.

Healing of the nation zkittlez auto
ok so everything has gone fantastic , no nutrient burns at all , and have been slowly creeping up the base nutrients , i have stopped the cal mag and now adding house and gardens bud XL at full strength these girls are now in full swing of flower and i bought a new ph stick this week , i have found when PHing the feed bucket that its best too have air stones in the bucket , add all nuts and then ph but do not use the feed that day as if you check the next day the ph is off again so i left it 24 hours after i add more ph down , and it seems too make the measurements alot easier and stable , i have bent down the main stems " without damaging them onto my netting too A keep the canopy all the same high so my lighting is covering all plants at the same distance and also it allowed the side stems too reach up too , the zkittlez did stay alot shorter and compact compared too the rest , but she has had the shame conditions than the rest , so she much just be a shorter pheno type i also was sponsored another new led light by kingbo this week so have added another 600watt led too the grow , so now have two 600's and one 900watt , and temps are still fine sitting at 24c lights on and 19-20 off , so am pleased with that , this lady stayed very short and compact and didn't really stretch much at all and it by far the smallest plant of the bunch ,

Good day to all my friends and visitors here on GD. Decided to finally finish this diary so that on New Year eve I'm not opening the year with unfinished business. Now we cut the second Tropicanna XL auto plant, the first cut you can find in week 17. The plant from week 17 weighted 2.6 kilo wet, this one finished at 2.1kg. wet. The girls where autoflower but thanks to me starting this grow in cold day temps (14 degree Celsius) the started flower really late and grew and grew :) I enjoyed growing this strain immensely, smells so sweet and fruity, she has the most intense and most delicious aroma ever She brunches off like crazy, gave me a ton of big and dense bud. They were the biggest plants I have ever grown and to top that this cultivar rewarded me with one of the most tasteful buds, fit even for a picky connesour. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SE7000 done it's magic with this grow as with all my other grow ops. For anyone who is interested in obtaining this efficient and affordable light fixture ($ to gram) here's the link: https://spider-farmer.com/products/spider-farmer-upgraded-se7000-730w-commercial-led-grow-light/ A shout out to Sweet Seeds for the gift of this fenomenal genetics: https://sweetseeds.es/en/ Thank you all for your companionship on this voyage, I hope you enjoyed it at least as much as I did. Also thank you for this awesome year together here. Together with my little family we want to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a happy slide into the New Year, we love you all.
