Strains: Barney’s Farm Lemon OG Auto & Seedsman Gorilla Candy Auto The stretch has now kicked in fully and both plants are showing excellent health with strong, even growth. Internodal spacing remains tight and consistent across both genetics, which is helping light penetration deep into the canopy. They’re each drinking around 1L per day, and today they were treated to a Biosys tea to give the soil life an extra boost. Nutrients remain the standard Ecothrive Soil Food Grow/Bloom + Charge + Biosys cycle, no adjustments needed so far. Environmental conditions are dialled in nicely at VPD 0.8, with temps 75–80°F and RH ~75%. Both strains are thriving in this environment and settling into the early-mid flowering stage with no visible stress.

At the end of week 6 the buds are bulking up and the trichomes are going milky with red hairs pulling in will wait for more amber trichs before harvest which I anticipate around week 8-10.

It’s not getting attention. But I water it when it’s in need but I’m not sure how much light it gets. Putting the F1 Milkyway to the test! I may have to try it in a bigger pot at some time if it delivers under these circumstances. Update: While I lightburned my other plants, this must have been in a better position than i first thought. But it cost me alot on the other plants I got :/

Day 43 - she is growing very well a. Blue Dream smells amazing, the most fragrant fastbuds strain i have ever grown b. the flowering is going very quickly, there are sites everywhere c. uploaded video Day 44 - removed the under brush a. this plant has a lot of very small branches that need to be removed b. replaced 6L of nutrient solution, raised the ppms to 850 c. the flowering process is going very well Day 45 - beast a. the buds are growing exponentially by the day b. there was 6L of nutrient solution missing from the DWC, replaced with plain water to keep ppms in check between 650 and 850ppm c. the smell is very intense of this plant, it has a very interesting special smell for sure, unlike any other strain ive grown Day 46 a. growing very well, the buds are expanding b. drinking so many nutrients, she is a hungry variety c. the stems on this plant are out of control! d. added 6L to the DWC, raise the PM to 900 Day 47 a. buds are forming nicely b. she is growing very well, still producing new stems! Day 48 - beast a. gave her a 6L shot of Cal-Mag + Mineral Magic booster, the plant is so large she needs more Calcium b. the smell is quite intense, the resin is already forming on the sugar leafs and the buds Day 49 - great a. growing very well, still drinking 6L per day - just giving her spring water, PH 6 right now... once PPMs get down to ~600, I will change the DWC for fresh flower blend. b. the stems are hard like wooden c. she needs a little more LST

hey Guys, I've been away for 2 week and luckily a trusted friend of mine came almost daily to check the situation and add a pre mixed solution I made before leaving and fix the ph. when i came back I could not believe what happened in the grow box, before living i made a scrog net and positioned it about 15cm above the plant, when i came back the plant grew at least 4x!! i set up the room where the grow box is so I have now the perfect environment!!👍 the girl is now drinking at least 3/4 liters of water per day. As you can see from the pics she's super healty. did some heavy defoliation a few times. hope you enjoyed the update. any suggestion or critic is welcome

Straw-Lectric Lemonade-STRNG Seed W7 12/21-27 Nutrients: 2/23 1.5 ltr each Aptus Regulator 1.5ml Aptus strtbooster 2.5ml Flora micro 5ml/g Flora grow 5ml/g Grow Time 5ml/g Plant Juice 2 TBSP/g 6.41ph, 931ppm, 62.4 2/24 when transplanting added Dynomyco and Mychoreaza in the planting hole. The soil base is 50/50 Fox Farm Happy Frog and Coast of Maine. I watered the lower portion of the new pot with 1.5 liters then added the plant and more soil. 12/25 1.5 ltr Aptus Regulator 1.5ml Calmag 2.5ml/g Rcharge 2.5ml/g 6.04ph, 463ppm, 62.6f 12/27 1.5 ltr each Aptus Regulator 1.5ml Aptus strtbooster 2.5ml Flora micro 3ml/g Flora grow 1ml/g Flower Time 7.5ml/g Plant Juice 2 TBSP/g 6.45ph, 831ppm, 62.2 The Strawberry’s received 1.5 liters 3 times this week. A big week for defoliation and lollipop. It is evident that topping an asymmetrical plant does create more tops, slightly uneven. The 6 Strawberry plants are huge for 7 weeks. Originally, I was planning to wait until January to transplant, however, the roots were showing out of the bottom of the pots, and every plant is over a foot tall and half are over 2 feet. I believe the CO2 Exhale bag makes a difference in the speed of growth and development. These are heavy feeders. All showed some nitrogen deficiency earlier on and I’ve increased feeding. I planned to use grow dots extended for photo period plants when I transplanted them to 5 gal. I asked Santa in early November, and he kept sending notice that the order had been delayed. So, I decided to use TPS1 for this grow. I flipped to 12/12 on 12/28 and will water only this week. I hope to reduce the stretch during the first 2 weeks of flower. I must admit; I took on more than I can handle. I started these in November expecting them to be much smaller at 6 weeks. But no, these gals have grown with vigor. I had these 6 huge plants and 4 autos in the 4X4 tent. They grew faster and bigger than the autoflowers am used to growing. Christmas week was hectic with 5 harvests, 6 transplants and defoliation. I had to have my husband assist in the transplant to hold the plant as I held the fabric pot open. A side note: I’m taking applications for Spring & Summer cabana boy positions when I go to the beach. Strawberry Cadillac has the big fans needed for the job. 12/28 Strawberry Cadillac #1 36” #2 26“ Strawberry Trop Cherry #1 26” #2 16” Straw-Lectric Lemonade #1 18.5” #2 18 Important dates 11/9 Germination 11/25 Transplant to 1.5 gal, 12/1 Topped, Pinned and removed 2 large center leaves 12/5 Repositioned pins and removed lowest fan leaves 12/16 Topped 4 tops on each plant except Cadillac1 (first topping) and put manuka honey on the cut. 12/24 Transplant to 5 gal 12/27 Defoliate all 12/28 Flip to 12/12 Stay green, growers love 💚🌿 💫Natrona💫

Final week report: Buds look ready for harvest and terps are showing a good mix of colors. Mostly white on both with the purple starting to show some amber. Only watered this week (heavily watering to flush a bit), no nutes and backoff the lighting schedule (UVBs) as well as added a small amount of distance between the light and the plant. My thought was there was some additional strain with the CO2 being turned off and the light level remaining the same.

Skunk apple runtz I'm probably only going to keep 1 of these guys seeing the 2nd just has really bad growth so far. I'm sad about this I made this cross out my last grow and was hoping for the better end of things. The other plants is decent but we will see I hope it has the growth pattern of the lit farms Rick bobby and the bud structure of the obama runtz I grew It's looking like a good start to a week the plants are strong they are getting to the point I can let the dried dry out completely. I'm thinking by the end of this week the plants will be starting to be sold. Last week I put all the plants into my bigger 2x4 tent with my medicgrow mini sun 2 the 500w version. Only a few of the plants were ready for that light. Seems like the only plants that really have good resistance and have a strong start are the weedseedsexpress.com seeds. Shout out to weedseedsexpress.com for the strong plants. I ended up putting all the plants back into my 2x2 tent with the 55w amazon light it has alot more blue light in its spectrum. It's kinda weird b4 I switched the plants to the 2x4 tent they were getting 220umol under my amazon 55w led then when I put them under the 500w light 25% strength about 50in from plants and they were getting only about 195umol in that tent but it was stressing most the plants. I assume a larger light has more side lighting hitting the plants. I think when useing larger lights it's good to measure umols from the top but also coming from the sides. I think durring seedling stage they only need about 50% the umols coming from the side the plants as the top is receiving. When I put the plants back in the small tent about the same umols as they were getting b4 the switch and they were still a little stressed. So for a few days I put the small light at the top the tent giving them 100umols for a few hrs then 130umols the rest the day.

Guys, I haven't done anything this week 🤦🏻‍♂️ but i made a lot of content I had a lot of other things to do, so I didn't touch the girls and gave them complete freedom - they turned out to be whores and got very loose 😂 This weekend I'm taking the girls to the salon, we'll do a new haircut and then I'll give them 12 hours of rest 💚☘️🥦💕❤️😍

So this week after I gave it under nutrients I apparently gave it too much nitrogen while having a potassium deficiency. Shiney dark leaves, So i fixed that, but some didn't bounce back, and I tried nitrogen. I think they are doing pretty good considering everything I've put them through SO FAR. lol. Nutrients are NPK Raw's total lineup, follow their instructions at first, Fastbuds adjustments as of this week.

This here is my second grow (1st in CoolGrows tent) and I’m proud to say I’ve fucked up significantly less than my Fyre Festival of a rookie season - 2 plants died in veg then my grow light fell on the only plant left that was 3 weeks into flower, severing 2 colas. So, yeah, while I have def dinked up a few things on this grow, it’s the garden of eden relative to the the nightmare on weed street that was my first attempt. Things I fucked up this time (so far) and won’t do next time: - Overcrowded the space. Got greedy and tried to fit 4 plants in my 3x3x6 tent. 0/10 would not recommend. - Tried growing 1 indica strain with the 3 WWxBBs. WWxBBs quickly grew taller and started robbing the lil indica friend’s light. - Added 2nd net a little late. It’s looser than it ought to be I’m not sure it’s providing ideal structural support to colas but prob better than nothing? - Want to try lollipopping next time. Air flow is ok but fan leaves are blocking light to some lower Bud sites and likely sapping energy that could be going to bud production. I’m probably messing something else up that I don’t even know I’m messing up. If you’re reading this and see something I could be doing better, let me know. Here to learn and grow the dopest dope possible. Love, Chip

---GENERAL COMMENT--- Girls are at day 4 technically, but i like to update Sunday always, so keep that in mind, is 1/2 a week now. From germination to soil emerging took 3-4 days, no issues at all. 100% germination rate from multiple breeders till now. I will try my best to do a stress free grow again, so will grow mainly naturally. ---RQS QUICK ONE--- She is tiny, tiny, tiny. The smallest seedling i ever have worked with. Hope she takes off soon! ---DAY 10 UPDATE--- over some days she got volume, just started to use RECHARGE, and wow, that thing works, 48H you could tell something is different, since watering with it the stem is thicker and is growing more vigorous, lets see how it will impact overall! ---DAY 14 UPDATE--- This is the last day of this week and this girl is showing some kind of wired markings since the beginning in the first sets of leaves, will do her anyways... She grew a lot, showing already the intension of shooting up more stems like her cousin. She will be on plain water and recharge till i stabilise and figure what is going on with her, at least for a week. This strains tend to be easy and do well with low nutes, light and etc, really basic, i like to pay to see so i never give up from a pheno, but is not fun to have issues... No worries though there is always a crop after the other 😎👍. Lets see what happens next.

Englisch: We have now reached week 2 and the ladies have tolerated the early repotting a little worse than expected. But they recovered from the shock. All 3 biscotti plants are now growing wonderfully and look great so far. With the Gelatos, 1-3 are very uniform and growing well, but 4 and 5 are lagging behind. Time will tell if all 5 will make it to flowering. The two Cookies x Key Lime Pie are unfortunately also a little slower growing than the Biscotti and Gelato 1-3, but I'm so interested in the strain that I'm keeping both plants. Now we come to Herz OG, the strain I was most looking forward to. Heart OG 1 is growing relatively OK, but is clearly lagging behind the Bisottis and Gelatos. Heart OG 2 is growing quite slowly so far. Even slower than number 1. It also shows a mutation on the first pair of leaves. Let's see how it develops... The fertilizer has also been added since the beginning of week 2. Here I use the Athena Blended Line and stick to their feed schedules and the hand watering strategy. Deutsch: Nun sind wir in Woche 2 angekommen und die Ladies haben das frühe Umtopfen doch etwas schlechter vertragen, als gedacht. Aber so langsam erholen sie sich von dem Schock. Alle 3 Biscotti Pflanzen wachsen wunderbar und sehen bisher toll aus. Bei den Gelatos sind 1-3 sehr einheitlich und wachsen gut, jedoch hängen 4 und 5 hinterher. Es wird sich zeigen, ob alle 5 es bis in die Blüte bringen werden. Die beiden Cookies x Key Lime Pie sind leider auch etwas langsamer im Wachstum, als die Biscotti und Gelato 1-3. Der Strain interessiert mich jedoch so sehr, dass ich beide Pflanzen behalte. Nun kommen wir zum Herz OG, die Sorte auf die ich mich am meisten gefreut habe. Herz OG 1 wächst relativ OK, hängt jedoch klar hinter den Bisottis und Gelatos hinterher. Herz OG 2 wächst bisher recht langsam. Noch langsamer als Nummer 1. Sie zeigt außerdem eine Mutation am ersten Blattpaar. Mal schauen wie sie sich entwickelt... Außerdem wurde seit Beginn der Woche 2 der Dünger mit eingebracht. Hier verwende ich die Athena Blended Line und halte mich dabei an deren Feed Schedules sowie die hand watering strategy.
