Tag 88: Die Watermelon Candy F1 Automatic von Zamnesia Seeds hat Spass gemacht, anzubauen. Das ich so unvorsichtig war und die Spitze abgebrochen habe, ärgert mich jetzt noch. Dafür hat sie ganz schön reagiert mit dem "Ersatzhaupttrieb". Das Nassgewicht kann man nicht ernst nehmen, ist mit einer groben Küchenmaschine gewogen, wichtiger ist, wieviel es nach der Trocknung ist. 😎

It survived the holiday! Roots and plant looking healthy 👍 I Topped it as soon as I came back and plan to start LST when the branches start to stretch.

After inspection there a 8 very dense buds all clustered together and some inside leaves have died and the rot had started to form inbetween 3 buds, only a slight bit of rot but I'm discarding the whole top. Was 52g wet. Because of this and a few other colas have dense buds I'm only going to let her go for a few more days.

Back soon with harvest report. ********************************************

happy with the growth of this plant. its the top performer in my tent in terms of vegetative growth :)ive noticed purple/brown tips on the leaves, and purple leaf edges and stems. if anyone can help and guide me through flowering feel free to give me a comment or private message :) I feel more happy and alive now that ive been caring for these plants the last while. i love watching the progress day to day, listening to music with them and singing to them, they are quickly becoming a really big part of my life and health. over the moon that ive reached the flowering phase! roll on harvest and il update this when im home as my phone is gonna die! :) Update - Day 37 - 29/10/19 Flushed the plant today, runoff ph was 5.95 and ppm was 837. i have to flush to obtain runoff in these pots and i think this is causing problems, especially because im not using RO water. the ppm of my water is 140, and thats what ive been using for my first grows. (il pick up some water from the store soon) so im using 5 gallon pots with pure coco and autoflowers, the flushing to obtain runoff i think is just taking away from precious time in the plants life cycle. it would probably have been easier to grow photos in these pots and veg them out until they are monsters and then flip into flowering. oh well theres always next grow. and still for a first grow im happy with where im at :) watered: 1.8L/4ml Canna A/4ml Canna B/3ml Rhizotonic/3ml Cannazym. ppm 380. this should help with the purpling of the leaves and help flowering :) also needed that flush to get rid of salt buildup! Day 39 - 31/10/19 Happy halloween folks! Wow... Quick one is thriving now, i think ive learned enough to keep the plants in a near optimal setting :) tooks some photos and a video as usual, loving how the plants are developing! anyway this plant has grown about 6cm in 3-4 days, and its the buds getting taller instead of veg growth :) if actually looks like a plant off the 📺 more and more. i think im gonna get between 12-20 grams off this plant :) the flush worked a treat and i think the old nute and salt buildup was stopping it stretching! following cannas feeding schedule slightly for the ratio of nute/water. i learned that:(cocoforcannabis.com) Coco is supposed to be mostly saturated at all times which in turn means less watering to get runoff. now that im in the flowering stage too im watering once every morning at lights on! maybe when i get the tehnique down i can increase to two waterings per day - once at lights on, and once 10 hours later. To sum up this week ive had a lot of stretchy growth ,(flowering) a nice lavender like smell from the plant. a better fertigation schedule and i learned how to make dry ice hash from popcorn and trim :) i tried this in barcelona and it was amazing! super expensive so it will be nice to have my own stash :) Dont forget to check out my videos and my other diaries :) all the best!

After few scratches all good still in grow. I have lost 1 plant because was raining and snails attacked my plant which was attcked before LOL

Hi Grower! 92 Days Complete 33 Days Flower The plant makes me sweat a lot, at first I made 2 small mistakes, but they forgave me the way it looks. It's something else like an autoflower, even if I use the fertilizer for it. Unfortunately, I don't have a supersoil mix at home. Today I used a mixture from BioNova again to get the whole thing going. I really hope that I can get you to the finish line! Grown under Spiderfarmer SF-1000 Use Discount Code: Budspencer420 on www.spider-farmer.com

Germinated then placed into her 20 Litre airpot with fresh compost.

WELL, there we are! Finally i put her into flower, she is drinking already 1,5L of water EVERY DAY. in VEG!!! i hope i don't have to refill the bucket every second day when in flower 💀 She recovered really nicely, and is healthy and strong for flower. I really like the genetics, nice fast growth and i can't wait to see her producing buds. My plan is to get the canopy even more even and get as much uniformity as possible so i will get a lot of nice buds with the same quality. DLI is on 25 RN and will be adjusted slowly over every week. next goal of DLI is 30 by the end of the week. I hope you guys are doing good, take care of yourself and see you on the next update (:

So she had some nice growth this last week. I'm hoping this next week is its last bit of growth, can only move the light up another 3 to 4 inchs. I've got to clean up the lower section A bit more, more growth there then I'd like. So far it's growing a lot nicer then the last plant I did in this tent with a SCRog set up. The size of the squares on the last grows netting were 6" and this one is 4". Way easier to get a proper looking SCRog plant then with the 6" that's for sure. Now that the temperature outside has warmed up the night time temperature has been better then earlier weeks. The humidity has also gotten a lot better. Especially after I add a 4" muffin fan to the lower 4" duct hole. The humidity went up but the temperature went down a bit during lights on. Ive had to lower my temperature switch just to get the 4" duct fan to turn on to suck out the stail air. Think what I'll do is add a second plug to the temperature switch so I can add the 4" muffin fan to it so that itll only turn on when the temperature goes up instead of running 24/7. I've increased the feed up to 1000ppm and am give it 1.5L of water a day with 250ml max run off. My run off ppm is only 1080ppm so that's a great sign so far. I've been trying my best to keep the ppm levels equal every feed but itf luctuates a bit but no more then 60-80ppm. Same with my Ph, because I'm using the Jungle Juice base nutrients it's not part of Advanced Nutrients Ph perfect line so I have to adjust it. I usually try to have it swing back and forth between 5.9 and 6.1 and the plant seems to be liking it. Tho I'm not done this grow yet this light is doing a lot better in this tent then the last light. Only downside is that one burnt out diode. Because I always try to plan a grow ahead, I'm already planning on trying that last light out again (Phlizon PH-1000 125w that they apparently don't make anymore). But this time it's going to be in my 2x3x5 fusion hut tent with Royal Queen Seeds Fast Eddy CBD AUTO strain. Also going to add a ex hale bag to it. Well that's all for now growmies. Keep growing!!!

September 25 > Harvest at dawn for the big girl. The usual routine... except I shot a time-lapse video this time to play with the camera I won last year. Clipped the top buds first - then the base. Took me 2 hours to wash all that -rinse - repeat. ---------------------------------------- Well this was an interesting summer with this pair of girls. I learned that I don't really need a container larger than 10 gallons in order to grow very large plants (in my neck of the woods anyway). Now when I say large I mean how much space they take up on my patio. I'm allowed to grow 6 legally but 4 eats up pretty much the whole patio. And the reality is I don't need to grow plants that large. The outdoor yield will last well into next year for me and everybody I know. So next summer I plan to do much more serious pruning to limit the scope and shape of the girls I grow outdoors. I also learned that I don't need an inverted tomato cage style support if my container is larger than 5 gallons. The Durban I grew last summer was in a 5 gallon container and there's not enough weight in there to keep her grounded. Once up to 10 gallons you won't want to lift the container much and there's enough weight in there to keep things stable. At the moment I've listed 450g as a dry weight for both plants (updated to 458g final). I haven't actually weighed the 2nd plant yet and won't even trim her for about a week or so (I'll be back to update diary). The first girl came in at 235 grams. I got pretty ruthless throwing away small budlets and trim this morning as it took me 4 hours to take this big girl down and wash her up. That's only because I spent half a day yesterday trimming Cream & Cheese and moving Northern Lights around... and it's been over 95 degrees both days... so I'm ready for a rest. Cannabis harvesting is not easy labor. Diary note > There was a software malfunction a week or so back and I was unable to add a new flowering week, whereupon it was determined there was a limit of 26 weeks at that time... so I didn't add any more weeks after that until the harvest week. When I added the harvest week, it appears the malfunction had been corrected because I COULD HAVE added a new flowering week at that time. I think there's only a week missing. Differences can be noted with dates on the photos. If I had a problem this summer it's because I was too anxious to get going after a long winter nursing shoulder surgery and I didn't pay proper attention to the lighting ramifications when the instructions were there for me, and subsequently started too early. Next year I plan for an early crop of auto flowers to keep me occupied until the proper time for a regular crop. --------------------------------------- September 30 > Trimming and processing complete. I really manhandled the big girl with the Trimbag, largely because I knew I was gonna have a pound of herb on my hands (way more than I will personally consume) and I wanted to minimize my hand trimming. So when I say manhandled here, I mean I ran it through the process TWICE, using about 40 rotations/spins each time. It probably would have helped to be a tad drier, but we're entering a cool spell now and we've run out of time. Mother Nature has decided to turn off the heater... which has turned my Purple Berry Kush a nice shade of purple... but that's tomorrow mornings's harvest... <sigh>... anyway... where was I... oh yeah... AMNESIA... <hehe> Trimbag generated trim on 1st pass = 217 g Trimbag generated trim on 2nd pass = 90 g Trim generated by hand after that = 186 g Final bud weight for big girl = 223 g Clearly, comparing weight of trim generated by hand vs by the Trimbag here you can see the result of my "manhandling". Little girl was in a 10 gallon pot and generated 235 g buds and 360 g trim. Big girl was in a 15 gallon pot and generated 223 g buds and 493 g trim. Final total bud weight 458 grams for both plants. Hope anybody following along learned something this summer. I did. 😎 The trick is to not make the same mistake twice. That's kinda why we're all here. Kinda. ✊

This strain looks absolutely amazing. I ended up keeping the other purple punch going . I didn’t continue it in the diary . I had intended to kill it because of the way it looked. I guess it had wrinkly leaf syndrome . It ended up turning out 🤩. 1000 grams from two plants. The smell from them while harvesting was overwhelming.

Starting to see some frost not much but the smell is dank. Can’t wait to exhale the smell and hope it get me high as hell. This stage of growing is slow. I guess because you are always looking at the clock. “Is she ready yet”

The alien vs Triangle has been putting on some weight this last week. Doing my version of the nectar flush. She is very resinous and is definitely the biggest auto that I have grown. Even her lowers look great. Fading out nicely from the bottom, up.

Welcome to my Apricot Auto Diary sponsored by Fastbuds & Xpert Nutrients. Day 57-63 Week 9 Last of fattening & some of ripening left of this stinky colorful gem. Possibly the best auto I've done from Fastbuds. Plant reacted really well in her fattening stage. This is her last week. Just sugars/sticky fingers & enzymes. 450ppm. Still drinking good. And will let her finish up with what's left in the pot. She is stunning as is. Nutrients Pult off everything except sugars, and enzymes. 450ppm (no NPK ppm) ph from 6.1 to 6.7. 15c 700ml. And then just water, 700ml a day, slowing down to half that on her last days. DLI 49 959 ppf over 13hrs. Lowered from 55+. Harvest after 24hr dark rest. Thanks to my sponsors Fastbuds & Xpert Nutrients. Much appreciated to all my viewers. I look forward to seen your diaries. Either way thanks for dropping by.
