Week 5 Update: Challenges and Optimism! 🌿💪✨ Hey there, fellow growers! 👋🌱 As we dive into the fifth week of this thrilling journey, I must admit that I've encountered a few obstacles along the way. But fear not, for challenges are merely opportunities in disguise! 🌱🚀 Currently, three of my plants are still looking a bit droopy, a consequence of my underfeeding mishap. 😔 However, I've taken decisive action to rectify the situation. I've increased their water intake from 0.5 liters each to a generous 1 liter each, provided every two days. Hydration is key! 💧💦 Let's talk environmental conditions. The temperature within the grow space ranges between 20°C and 22°C, maintaining a comfortable and optimal range for our leafy companions. The humidity levels hover around 60% to 68%, thanks to the diligent work of my trusty dehumidifier. Kudos to technology! 🌡️💨💨 In light of the recent droopiness, I've temporarily adjusted the LED power to 75%. It's a careful balancing act to ensure the plants receive the right amount of light without overwhelming them. We're all about finding that sweet spot! 💡🌿✨ Interestingly, I've noticed a similar issue with droopiness during my previous grow with sour stompers. Could it be a recurring pattern? 🤔 Moreover, upon activating the dehumidifier, I made an intriguing discovery. The CO2 levels have soared over 900ppm! It seems I've stumbled upon an unexpected correlation. I'll certainly be investigating this further to unravel the mystery. Science at work! 🔬🌿🔍 Well, my fellow enthusiasts, that wraps up the highlights for this week. Let's remain optimistic as we eagerly await our plants' recovery and resurgence. I have faith that they will bounce back stronger than ever, for nature has a remarkable ability to rejuvenate. 🌿🌱💚 Remember, challenges are but stepping stones on the path to growth. Embrace them, learn from them, and continue nurturing your green wonders with love and care. Together, we shall conquer any hurdle that comes our way! 😜💪🌿🌟 Wishing you all an incredible week of growth and exploration. Happy growing, lads! 🌱🌿✨😄

Esta semana mostraron sus primeros pistilos. Aprovecho que subió la humedad en el exterior y que mostraron los pistilos para quitar el humidificador , ahora me molesta dentro del armario xd seguimos doblando alguna rama

These are doing pretty damn good for the most part. I figured out with the green buzz the only thing in bloom that raises ppm is the base bloom and the more PK which is good to know. Also been using lower ppm for the autos and they seem healthier than usual. These pics and the video were taken on Day 36.

14 days on the auto watering system and the girls are looking happy. Everything survived well and my reservoir size was just right. They are looking a little hungry, but nothing s fresh mix of nutes shouldn't fix. Things are starting to look frosty. I'll Be pulling all the Larfy bits this week to optimize my tops.

Ho già cambiato le ore e ho messo 15 accese e 9 spente, tempo qualche giorno è imposto il timer 12/12 😃

Seen explosive growth is week 3. Plant more than doubled in size, and reached 5 nodes. We topped her this week! (Video added!). Still zero nutrients but it won't be long! Plant is loving the T5 HO lighting! So far, so good, very strong looking grow, no troubles here! Topped at 20 days from seed.

hi guys, so situation: i guess we are 2 week from the cut, if the weather keep this sunny and warm September. update on the plant: first of all I'm pretty disappointed of the size of the colas, very very small, not nearly as thick as I would imagined. Since I've been growing a lot of autos recently I had more big colas with them than with this fem, just disappointing. so now the problem is: why are the colas not that dense? yes, I had a problem with K (deficiency) at the start of flowering, but was in early stages, and i quickly added K to the solution. my guesses: -I used product of the line biobizz, the try pack, and I think they were just not good enough for a feminized plant, because the pH was right all the time so i don't think it was a block. -didn't topped my plant, I know its a way to enhance the production, but I was curious to see the normal growth of the plant. -grown in pot, maybe wrong pot? too hot in the summer? -wrong substrate? (I mixed three different types, adding compost and manure, beside perlite and vermiculite of course) -bad climate/genetics? (this year was heavy hot but a lot of rainy days too, often in spring) the quality seems fine, nice smell and very sticky on the hand but very very small buds :( the last week an invasion of borer, I hate those fuckers, it's impossibile to control them, as soon as I stopped the foliar application of neem/aloe they arrived, really annoying.

Day 70 Sorry, from now on i will update very little, i'm not doing soo much at this point, just keeping feeding. Tomorrow last big defoliation. Day 72 It's becoming pretty difficult to shoot photos in there.. i barely have space to add water to the buckets ( now 8 liters every day), added net for support and "constriction" of pinus because she's huge and was starting to trow shadow on the fresh pressed runtz.

'Only' 14cm/5.5" growth this week. She is now above my lights 😂 I deliberately did not FIM or train any of the plants in this grow, just to get back to basics and to make a final decision for future grows.

Everything is proceeding good. Due to plants hight and colas weight, I had to use some poles to sustain the heaviest branches. Pistils are becoming to turn reddish, sugar leaves are more and more covered of transparant trichomes and fan leaves are becoming yellow and falling. Buds are increasing in size and even in the lowest branches there're some of them despite are quite small comparing to the ones on the top.

07.07.2025 Flowering day 9 and rooting day 9. Both, flowers and roots show up now. 08.07.2025, 09.07.2025 | Flowering day 10 and 11 Did some lollypoping

Grow is coming along well, though the Black Devil is still lagging behind IMO. I think the strain maybe isn't too impressed with being Main-Lined? Either way she's hungry so I gave her some bokashi, clover leaf trim and worm castings. Next week is main dry amendment feeding so the girls will get everything they need. Couple more weeks and the Northern light should make it's way around the entire pot, then if it's tall enough, I'm putting them into flower. Some weird shit on the microscope today; videos above.

Llegó su dia, hermosa planta fue una de las q no hizo ningun problema en todo el ciclo, al fin logre una auto sana y con cocos densos🤩 es chiquita pero mucho mejor q otras auto q me quedaban siempre enanisimas. Me quedó una semillita para tirar ahora con el clima mas a su favor😃 Tiene un aroma muy rico dulce

not much happened this week. there was a lot of sunshine. a few stormy days and some rain. she is still doing well and is growing steadily and the flowers are starting to show more. she is now also getting biobizz bio-bloom

el resultado seco de 177 no es real debido a que yo bastante para hacer brownies. pero estoy satisfecho con los resultados y recomendable. un olor y sabor unico

9/12 Sprayed 1 tbsp K Bicarb with 1/4tsp dawn. Only had time to use a half gallon. I've used more but with all the defoliation this seemed to work and I was in a hurry. I can't ask those watching my plants to do actual labor when I'm not home. I wouldn't want anyone working on my plants but me anyway. I defoliated dead stuff. Still have this rusty looking leaves dieing on my ice cream cake. I need to finish a little defoliating. Broke out my 100x scope and checked a few buds. Things are exploding. Another nice sunny day today. Beastie bloom had no negative effects. I'll use it again and I'll probably use cha ching as well. Went back down to defoliate a little more. I'm getting excited. Still a lot of work left but it's nice to see the progression. Had to cut out a small nug last night that looked like it might start to rot. It was probably fine but I wasn't taking chances. It's so dank and crystally. One of my mystery seeds in the 5 gallon will be done soon. Milky trichs and hard as a rock. Im hoping they will beef up a bit. Little to no amber but things are progressing so fast. I mean nights are in the 40°'s. 9/13 No need to water as it had rained so much the bags need to dry out. Sunny day today. Plants are doing great. Buds increase in bulk on the daily. Took a few pictures and defoliated what needed it. A dog was added to the grow for security. It hasn't gotten used to me yet but it's extremely loud and annoying. Nothing will get past it though. I tried to last night. I shut down the motion sensors informed the other growers (except the person who's shift it was to watch) and I couldn't make it down there on foot let alone a vehicle. Hope the dog liked me but it's certainly useful. It APPEARS we will be having some good weather so I'm excited. I think my plants will be able to finish properly. At least I hope. Either way if I have to harvest early do to the weather so he it but I'll cross that bridge when it comes. Plan to do a preventative BT spray this week. 9/14 FED TODAY. LOWERED GROW BIG TO HALF TBSP. AND AGAIN used 1/4 TBSP Beastie Bloom. Buds are swelling with the sunshine that we've had. I defoliated what needed it and found more dead foliage. It's so weird this damage. I'm pretty sure it's earwigs but the only bother new shoots so that's a good thing. Things are getting close and looking good. I need to do another app of BT. I heard a storm may be coming I'll need to check the weather. 9/15 After a few good days of weather we are in for some rain. Supposably a big storm but it looks like I won't get the worst of it. No water obviously. Something (probably earwigs or jpn beetles) eating or lollipopping lower things. They seem to leave flowers alone. It's just low shoots. Everything is flowering incredibly. I checked trichs on one of my mystery seeds and it looks done. I'm considering taking it. It's in my garage for 24 hrs of darkness and to avoid rain until I make my decision. I also took the two lowest branches off on DJ Short blueberry to taste test and see where I'm at. I probably shouldn't but o do this every year. It will be good to try the mystery bud before I harvest it all. It's just a little guy but the buds are rock hard and with the weather and pm and stuff I'm not sure what I'm going to do yet. UPDATE: APPARENTLY WE HAVE SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WARNINGS WITH GOLF BALL SIZED HAIL. I can move the other little ones in the garage but everything else is firmly rooted and have taken a beating already. I pray things will be ok. 9/16 No damage from the ridiculous storm last night. I need to spray ASAP. I have a fungal infection with just a few weeks to go. Looks like PM but I know some is a different fungal issue. I'll probably use the k bicarb or citric acid. So far no bud damage or damage up top. The things the earwigs ate were low like the lollipoped lower limbs. It's getting so close. I've been checking trichs and they look great but the buds have some filling out to do. 9/17 DID K BICARBONATE TREATMENT THIS AM. I didn't even look to see if I needed to water. Fuck. buds were soaking wet though so it must've rained. I have to go back down anyway to add a couple strings and do a little more defoliating. Did a treatment with k bicarb this morning.. 1 tbsp with dawn in a half gallon sprayer. I also need to address this earwig problem. They are ravaging some secondary lower branches and Im sure they are spreading disease. I only have a few weeks left and I want the best quality I can possibly get. I plan to put gorilla tape on the outside of the grow bag (double width) and petroleum jelly on the stems. That way they can't climb the bag. If they are in the soil of the bag hopefully the jelly will stop them. I'll also try beer as I've heard that works. I really don't want to resort to borax. Oh and I may have had a visitor last night. I'll have to check the cams. Nothing on the ones I checked but I have some game cams at different angles I haven't checked yet. It was probably just a nocturnal animal. Great to know that the dog announces though. This was at like 12:30 and I was out quick. I only have a few more weeks. I hope the cannabis gods are with me. 9/18 Whatever is eating my plants (earwigs I assume) are progressing from lower secondary or tertiary branches and new shoots to small buds. Looking at trichs some plants look ready. One seedling and the blueberries. I'd like the blueberries to go longer but I'd risk losing them. Fungal and mold issues aren't the greatest either. I was hoping for a big swell but if the weather stays raining and foggy like this it might be better to harvest a little early. I got a second opinion this morning and I'm leaning on taking the seedling and at least the one blueberry with the worst damage that dropped most of its leaves. I'll see how the bottom branch smokes this afternoon and make my decision then. Didn't feed for fear of lockout or if decide to cut. UPDATE: After the second consult with a different local grower I decided to harvest the blueberry that was furthest along and dropping it's leaves. It was done. Luckily it had been flushed with all this sheet rain we've gotten. It rains hard as I speak. Last year I think I had two strings the length of the huge garage and that lasted me all year. This one plant took an entire string to itself. If the weather cooperates this will be a good day. I also flushed the mystery seed I was going to take hoping it might fill out but trichs are very Amber and the bud is DENSE. Not risking mold or insect damage or theft. This took hours to harvest this ONE Blueberry plant. I had to harvest limbs. This was when I could see damage best. I also am curing the buds from the lower branch I took earlier and the other bud that is done. I plan on testing it out tomorrow. I could smoke now but Im already burnt and tired and want to try this with a clear head. I can't believe how long this took. One Big and one little down 10 more to go. Phone died so I couldn't take any pictures.

Day 70 after switch. its going to end soon I think. 65 - 70 days recomended by breeder. Maybe I will just not water again and let her slowly die 😱 she looks good - beatutifull almost - although I inspected a problem at one of the buds... more in my question that I will create. bigger leafs are getting soaked out of nutritions and start to get yellow. probably the last time you see her alive. I try to recap a little bit of the veg. phase in the upcoming week to get the diary a more "complete" look 😎 Also I will update you as soon as I got this in the glasses. thanks for your participation on my way with ralph wigum from root riot seeds (almicanna)👌

Just gave her a tea last night. The tea consisted of: -1 gallon of water -15ml Be-1 pellets -15ml grokashi -1.5ml Be-2 -5ml slf100 -3ml fish head farms "fish sh!t" -3ml Nourish-L -5ml homemade FPJ -5ml Em1 Brewed for 26 hours She is growing fast and takes well to training. So far I have topped her main stem, then topped again at each end. I removed 2 fan leaves so that the under growth could get more light. And I've tied down the 2 main lines. I don't plan on topping anymore, but i do plan to train and tie down areas to get the biggest and most even canopy for this girl when she's ready to flower. Which should only be a couple weeks from now. Stay tuned and make sure you follow me on Instagram as well.

Last straight before flushing this run was very pleasant and relatively easy I feasted on this session On these different tests I learned a lot about cars Among other things that the LST is essential and that the different apical or other sizes are to be avoided because their predefined life cycles do not allow them and this generates a loss in performance To return to my five damsels The northen light auto at @RQS was the fastest the first amber trichomes appeared at day 56 I did not expect taken from court I start rinsing The bubblegum from 00seeds still has not bloomed I plunged into the dark 20h .... The blueberry auto # 1 of pevseeds is simply gorgeous rugged and will surely give me a nice harvest it has suffered pinch of Apex and LST The gorilla glue from @fast_buds is not left smaller than the bonsai style but very well trimmed she suffered LST Apex pinch and size of the main apex ... Et en français Dernière ligne droite avant le rinçage ce run à étais très plaisant et relativement facile Je me suis régalé sur cette session Sur ces différents test j'ai beaucoup appris sur les autos Entre autre que le LST est primordial et que les différentes tailles apicale ou autre sont à proscrire car leur cycles de vie prédéfinie ne leur permettent pas et cela génère une perte au niveau du rendement Pour revenir à mes 5 demoiselles La northen light auto de chez @RQS à étais la plus rapide les premiers trichomes ambrés sont apparus au jour 56 je ne m'y attendais pas pris de cour je commence son rinçage La bubblegum de chez 00seeds n'a toujours pas fleuri je l'ai plongé dans le noir 20h .... La blueberry auto#1 de pevseeds est tout simplement magnifique robuste et va surrement m'offrir une belle récolte elle a subis pincage d'Apex et LST La gorilla glue de chez @fast_buds est pas en reste plus petite du style bonsaï mais très bien garnie elle a subis LST pincage d'Apex et taille de l'apex principal La blueberry auto#2 de @pevseeds Est pas mal mais on voit nettement que le main lining subis la stréssée et par l'occasion perdre de sons rendement final je souligne la robustesse de cette variété Merci à tous d'être passé pas ici Que la force soit avec vous !
