Hey guys. This week I ended up moving my 2x2 tent into the shed. Well, that didn't last too long. It got way to hot in the tent and then got to how int the tent. I don't have an AC unit attached to the tent.

Vagwan Ma Boy! How is your mood? I'm sure I have something to interest you in! - The thing here is: The ubiquitous "BOOM" of indica, in particular OG, did not leave many fans of a good staff without close attention and observation for a long period... At one time, as a lover of a good "head bang", I was only interested in a high-quality head-bearing, dense and sofa. Oh, this OG, ma Donna... ...and what do you think, Ma Boy!?😎😛

Start of week 6, ended week 5 with a few only water feeds on the topped and natural girl as they showed some claw. New growth looks good and the HST girls are in their stretch...not much stretch with natural. Hopefully the stretch and node spacing continue as is and they continue to grow through this week. It is much better than my first run. Hope you all enjoy the photos and video and please chime in, like the grow or give me a follow. I am a sponge for information. One thing I have noticed is that all 3 girls droop hard at night, sometimes as early as 3hrs before dark...growth has seemed fine. Maybe they are tired from their daily stretch who knows.

So, start of week 7...... At the moment I can't give you exact feeding amount, because I have to adapt to every plant differently, due to the different deficiencies. Plants look good though, the cherry cola buds start smelling and it's awesome, can't wait to test. The bigbud will take longer if I see bud development. But holy, they seem to be good yielders. Just curious to see how fat they will become. Update day 46 After some days of individual feeding the problem seems to be more or less settled. Only the big bud get extra nitrogen, cause it looks like they inhale it like I will do to their buds later:) So here is the 2 feeding schemes I am using now......All calculated per litre......the now receive about 750ml-1l of nutrition, besides the normal watering Sorry, I tried editing the format so it is clear which ammount belongs to which nutrient, didnt really work out.......only biogrow has two different ammounts.... Biogrow 1.5ml / 5ml Algamic 2ml CalMag 0.5ml Biobloom 4ml Topmax 4ml Canna TraceAmix 1ml And now imagine, I had to give them even more for about 2 weeks, as they were showing increasing deficiencies. This is by far the hungriest bunch of Ladies that I have grown. As far as I can guess from today, I think I will have to harvest on 2 different dates unfortunately. This really wasnt the plan and needs extra investing in another filter/vent for drying. Well, so I am forced to use my second tent, really horrible,lol........I already see me vegging while blooming haha. 3 cherries will be finished at week 10, the other one (the cripple I mentioned during vegetation) will need about two weeks more. I gues she will finish together with the bigbud. Concerning the "cripple" I have to say, it is not due to bad genetic......This one was just very sensitive with the ammount of light she got the first 2 weeks and this made her very slow in her development. About the bigbud I also made a mistake which was pretty stupid I guess.........She showed gender and I switched nutrition, but with the same ammount as the cherry cola, not keeping in mind she will need a bit longer and therefor needs to be fed differently. I guess that caused the problem for her. Well, we never stop learning, as long as our Name is not Donald J Trump..... What else can I say...........in an hour and a half the light will turn on and this time wont pass by, as I am fucking curious....... update day 47 Well, it is freakin insane........I increased watering level to 2,5 l per plant........like 1l pure water and then 1,5 nutrition.........cant believe myself. Fucking junkies,lol...............I will see what they did until tomorrow. But it looks like, they just can^^ Besides, I would love to live in this tent right now.......I am "checking" like 5 times a day and it seems they always get just a little bt bigger......IT maybe due to my passion got lost for many years....since I didnt want legal problems and so on.....I just feel happy in my element.........I just love it........good grow to everyone with the same kind of passion..........you guys know its so,nothing special (and I dont mean my ladies, just the general approach from real growers) So, here is another lyric I written I dont remember when....... When time is passing slowly The holy day comes near We´re waiting, hesitating Being nervous, awful fear It gives me joy to watch it But now all must disappear Slowly 3 long month have passed And now my dear.... I cut your head off! And your arms! The smooth smoke She makes me calm This is why I love my palm As I comfort them They get older During childhood And adolescence Until grown up They get much bolder But now I need the essence Of my love, my work, my stress I never mind and will confess I am a legal criminal And so I say Jah bless

Week 4 of flower and the boys have finally spilled the pollen. It’s bloody everywhere in there so I expect that no bud has gone undefiled😎. The females have all witnessed a pretty significant nitro deficiency now that they’re trying to produce seed instead of flowers. We changed out the nute mix to 1/3 grow and 2/3 bloom and they immediately showed improvement. No slight against Druid at all - we moved to a different brand simply to conserve it for the flowering runs where it really matters👍. The lone separated spicy bitch female that entered flower early is looking really sexy. I very much doubt she’ll have escaped full pollination with this much in the air however. We won’t use any seed from this girl but if we’re lucky we might be able to pull out some sample bud. We’re taking down all the males today now that their job is done and we’ve also decided to harvest from the one specific cum dumpster male that has shown as the most vigorous. Doubt we’ll get around to using it before it’s shelf life expires but u never know. The details on that will be in the harvest entry coming up. Other than that - we’re through the fornication stage and it’s all just keeping the ladies alive until it’s time to extract some seeds👍😎👍. Still workn on the potential cross names - that’s the best part😉. Until next week🤟👊. Background Fingers crossed that these Spicy Bitch regs provide at least one male so that we can back build some stock of it. In the event that does take place we’ve got a single clone of each strain from the previous pollen chuck to sit in the tent with them so they can make babies for the next few months. The whole point of the last year was to start making some foundational genetics for a third generational cross we could call our own. If you’ve been following along than you’ll know that it’s been anything but easy. Our previous pollen picks didn’t pan out at all so we’re back to the drawing board with a new option from ExoticSeeds. This’ll be a 10 plant run with 5 regs and 6 strains for pollination including the strain itself. We’re running in a 2x4 MarsHydro grow tent all powered by a Mars Sp6500. That’s a little more than 600w packed into half the recommended footprint😳. Why? you ask - because we like our buds big and overcompensatory😂. Really, I’m just of the mind that we can pack more light into this space than recommended and get much better results. The math doesn’t lie. At least not as long as I wasn’t high when using the calculator again….. Many thanks to @MarsHydroLED for the opportunity to test run the equipment👊. In addition, we’ve also moved to a new nutrient system - Druid Nutrients out of the Netherlands. They don’t really have a presence on GD yet but you’ll be hearing about them very soon I’m sure. The beauty of this system is that it’s literally a 1 (one) component system for the entirety of the plants grow cycle. It really has changed the game in terms of ease of feeding and maintenance. It’s also very versatile and seems to provide everything needed across multiple different strains in the same ratios. Keep your eyes peeled for these folks. Pretty much a guarantee that they absolutely blow up once more people know about them👍👌😎. Strain Background Spicy Bitch: predominantly sativa, heavy yielder with a daytime kinda trip profile. It’s a cross of Queen Mother and a Pre-2000 AK47. We’ll pull what pollen we can and hope to have a female run out a larger supply of seed for the future. Many thanks to @Exoticseeds for the chance to give these beans a go👍👊. Pollination Strains: Holy Surfer S1 - this is one of the focal points for this cycle. A fellow growmie was kind enough to ship over some S1 genetics I took an interest in. The only ask back was that if I did cross it to send a few his way for testing👍. Shoutout and cheers to @blendmedmedman. Hoping to have something back to ya in short order. For full details on this alluring hybrid option check my buddies link at seedfinder - https://en.seedfinder.eu/strain-info/Holy_Surfer/Smiling_Tiger/ Northern Lights - this came from a particularly interesting batch of seeds that have shown a very dependable variegation trait. It’s a compact and squat plant requiring very little maintenance. Typical for the strain really. It’s been chosen as an option to potentially mellow out the high , shorten the stature of the resulting hybrid and inject it with some of that mellow indica effect. Boogie Nights - total shot in the dark. Still haven’t even tried the strain myself yet but it was available at the right time and interesting enough to make a salad with. Big thanks to AMS who’ve been nothing short of an excellent seedbank to collaborate with. Expect similar growth characteristics to that of the Northern Lights. Better resilience however. Blueberry - this particular clone is from extremely strong stock. Spliff seeds broke the mold with this strain. She’s lower maintenance than the NL, more resilient than anything else we’ve got on the menu and the terp. Profile on this girl is out of this world. If we can bring any of these qualities to the cross, then it could be magic👌. White Widow - garrghh, I just can’t get away from this particular plant. Again, still haven’t even tested the buds yet and all I can say is that the growth characteristics are extremely vigorous and desirable. This plant is one of 3 unicorns that I have yet to tame due to a combo of extremely bad luck and circumstance. All told, it’s still the same story: a VERY experimental breeding project designed to shotgun a broad swath of genetics against a reliable and dependable Breeder who’s put out proven fire 🔥🤟😎👍.

Oh boy my first ever harvest is making its way💜💚 Day 61: So these girls have been fattening their budsites and #3 isnt mad about how close the light is😅 these plants have really strong resistance and amazing genetics 🔥 On that note highly recommend Fastbuds seeds. First ever grow and these seed did not let me down. Amazing frost, incredible resistance againts overfeed and high temp (also low). Plant #1 and #2 are further into flower than #3. 3 has still almost 90% white hairs and definitely non tris that are cloudy. 1 and 2 however have almost all hairs turned to beatiful dark orange🧡 They still have ways to go before harvest. Might start flushing soon. Day 63: Morning fellow growers 🌅 💜 Checked trichomes this morning with my quite annoying small ass 30x lens. Almost impossible to see them but by the looks of it, atleast on lower buds almost all of em al clear. So imo they have still time to get fat 😎 i think ill start flushing when i see cloudy tris on top buds atleast 90% and chop down when 75/25 cloud/amber. So far my first grow has gone very well all things considered! What to remeber to do for my cookies and runtz, is that i will keep the cannopy level so i dont have one 120cm plant and two 60cm plants😂 also i have doubts about my offbrand light. Prolly will see 2 harvests trough and see if both times i get skinny nugs i will switch it out😎 stay lifted💚 Day 66: harvest is getting closer but seems like trichomes are mostly glassy still. Been feeding normally but cut the gro out this week. So only calmabg bloom and micra. Ph round 6.1. It seems like buds wont get that much denser or wont do much anymore. Would love some opinions what to do at this point! Edit: since growquestions are bugging, decided to harvest 1 top from 2 plants. Just to see hows the high and some closer looks. Seems like i might be a day or two early for my liking but opinions and comments are appreciated 💚

Week of 9/12 The plants responded well to the Down to Earth dry nutrients I top dressed with the week before, but I wanted them to get some more sugar so I switched back to my previous nute regimen with molasses. Problem Child is finally getting in the swing of flowering. A lot more pistils making their way out so hopefully this train will keep rolling so we can get her finished before Thanksgiving😅 Good Girl has a very strong Pine scent, so should be good for reducing inflammation, pain relief and relaxation. Otherwise I think everything is covered in the video. Clearly I was not able to update after I took the photos and video, my migraine decided to kick it up a notch with the kaleidoscope aura so I had to go hide in the dark.

Giorno 49 Qualche pianta (Crystal Candy XL) mostra carenze di cal-mag o un mancato assortimento di nutrienti dovuto a ph sballato (lo so devo essere più preciso e misurare sempre acqua soluzione e scopo) devo ancora cercare di capire questa puntinatura marrone con necrosi fogliare da cosa sia dovuto La Grape Rolex V2 anche lei mostra qualche segno con un ricurvamento verso il basso di alcune foglie ma tutto sommato sta bene. Ci vediamo settimana prossima 🖐️ 🤞

8/22/2021 - Did some mid-flower defoliation to increase airflow and to prevent mold and mildew. - Split the top right main from trying to train her down and spread out the canopy, supporting with tape and twist ties. 8/23/2021 - Top right main is still vigorous after split.

Week 6 of flowering cookies Gelato by RQS Hallo again brother and sister Growmies and homies . I will be making the diaries somewhat individual per strain. They're in same tent but not same strain lol . In the beginning didn't know what i was doing 🤣🤣 and had both diaries the same but from now on I will treat them as different plants/diaries 💪🏻 so this will be same as the other diary because there's nothing to talk about yet lol Fresh new week ahead . I am excited let's do this 🤘🏻🤘🏻 Day 35 Cookies Gelato New start of the week. The Cookies Gelato looking mean, green and sticky as hell . Getting my better microscope in tomorrow so i can check on the progress. I had a small microscope but you have to ram that one into your eyes to see through it lol . This morning i gave them 1L water with the full range of awesome advanced Nutrients. I am very happy with these nutrients! They are perfect for me! Come look at my other diaries! I appreciate it a lot 🤘🏻 I am running this fully marshydro Marshydro GT 100X100X180cm tent and Marshydro TS-1000 LED lamp Day 36 Flowering Cookies Gelato Cookies have good time next to the Critical's i am very excited to try this one. They don't sell in shops here but if they do, you pay 40 euro per gram and i ain't that dumb lol. Gave the plants 1.25L 🌊 pH 6.6 and that's it I let them do their thing. Also trying out my new microscope it's definitely a learning curve to focus in with not steady hand lol . Sorry for the first blurry pics 🙈 Come look at my other diaries! I appreciate it a lot 🤘🏻 Come visit www.marshydro.eu for your best gear and use the PROMO CODE: DEVILSBUD And you will get a nice discount. Day 37 Flowering Cookies Gelato Got some leaves away that were droopy . Nothing special, made new video today so take look if you want 🤘🏻. Come look at my other diaries! I appreciate it a lot 🤘🏻 Day 38 Flowering Cookies Gelato The Cookies Gelato Frosty Town in cookies gelato ally 3 big main ones going on with cookies Gelato#2 this one was topped and the cookies Gelato #1 i think was fimming and has 2 main ones and nicely grow below . Same issue with critical tho low bud structure . its definitely Going to be better to cut the top when they're done and let the lower grow continue for a week or so . Today i Gave the cookies gelato water with advanced Nutrients with pH 6.5 ppm the same as critical i forgot right now what it was lol Day 39 Flowering Cookies Gelato Moved the big branches more to the light and tied them to the ScrOG netting definitely more light created now 🤘🏻🤘🏻 Come look at my other diaries! I appreciate it a lot 🤘🏻 Come visit www.marshydro.eu for your best gear and use the PROMO CODE: DEVILSBUD And you will get a nice discount. Day 40 Flowering Cookies Gelato Been bizzy trying to get cookies gelato under the microscope is quite a task . The best way for me is to cut 😱😱😱 something off and lay it down. it works but still need to fine tune it a little better but amazing what you can see up close 👀 some leafes had a lot of ambers on it but the buds (not photography) are still clear so it has some way to go still. Day 41 end of week 6 of Flowering Week 6 is over Growmies what a wonderful week!!! Getting the microscope under control and starting to see the milkyway . But still a lot of clear trichomes so i will wait with flush this week . I think next week i can start the flush of cookies gelato 🤘🏻 I appreciate all the comments, likes, views and tips you guys are an awesome community 👍🏻👍🏻 . Have great time growing and see you in the other week guys and girls Growmies and homies Come look at my other diaries! I appreciate it a lot 🤘🏻

8/12 - Dropped 4 seeds into RO water to germinate 8/13 - Placed seeds into re-hydrated peat pellets soaked in Extreme Serene then placed on heat mat to complete germination. 8/14 - All four seeds have sprouted! I have 100% germination. I watered w/ a little RO water and molasses and placed back in tent. 8/15 - Three of the four seeds already have their true leaves and have stretched so much that they HAVE to be planted! I prepared four 1-gallon pots with Roots Organics Original soil and added 1 cup of Bad Bunny nutrients and mixed well. I topped it with Mosquito Bits for added BTI for pest prevention. Finally, I wet the pots down with RO water and Organic Black Strap Molasses. Then planted the four seeds and placed them in the 4x5 tent. I placed a humidity dome one the one that still does not have it's true leaves to keep in moisture. 8/16 - The last of the Purple Microdots has sprouted her true leaves so I have removed her dome. I sprayed them lightly again today with RO water and molasses.

The stretch phase is over and the Platinum Zooks is doing fabolous😃 I gave her a heavy haircut (defol & lollipop) @ day 11 of flower. ( she didn't mind ) On day 18 of flower i'm gonna give her, her first Bio-Tabs Compost Tea to give her a little extra push in the back.

I can recommend White Widow from seedsman. This auto plants gets loads of stress from LST, HST, topping, lollipoping, scrog And what's the most important think they finish on time! Great plants, great yeld, great stuff couldn't be better 💪

Temps and humidity are getting up there and harder to control. Equipment is working harder to keep cool. Heatwave forecasted for next week:( Got old lights switched out for new Mars TS series:) Ladies might need to be watered everyday soon as they are taking a lot more every other day. Don’t want them to dry out to much. Added some mulch to help with the top layer from drying right out between waterings. Want to keep the top alive and not die off as the sides of the pot also dry up and really only the centre stays healthy between waterings. That’s why I have now decided in future grows that I’ll being going with large pots, like 30-45 gallon and fewer plants, maybe 1-2 and grow longer for bigger roots!

The plant was easy to grow overall .. it grew fast and a little on the tall side which had me nervous but I was able to raise the lights up just enough to finish, so it all worked out in the end. buds came out hard and frosty no complaints . This was a freebie seed too! didn’t expect it to come out as fire as it did man was i wrong. Straight fire 🔥 Ran into root rot in the beginning of veg but the great white and hydroguard saved my ass.🙏

Marker is doing great, enjoying its meals as usual. The berry-like scent is a pleasant surprise, no gas yet though. Excited to see how it develops! 😊🌿

Giorno 35 fioritura Le piante stanno abbastanza bene. Purtroppo iniziano a soffrire il caldo (ho impostato il condizionatore a 25 gradi altrimenti poi congelo io hahahha) visto che le temperature esterne toccano i 40 gradi e non è facile mantenere in temperatura perfetta l'ambiente. Il box ha qualche punta di 30° ma bene riesco a stare intorno a i 28/29° massimo. Non vedo l'ora di fumare le due Rainbow Belts. Mai avuto questo mix di odori (Lime, uva e Zkittlez) e se penso che dovrò ancora aspettare due mesi la cosa un po' mi rattrista. Le due piante alla fine sono diverse. La #1 da quel poco che ho visto in giro sembra abbia più la forma della Zkittlez mentre la #2 dato che ho fatto la Mooonbow#75 ricorda molto quei fiori in quanto a consistenza. Staremo a vedere... Anche le due Zombie niente male affatto. La pianta #2 quella più compatta ha un odore forte di incenso (cmq sembra di stare in chiesa per capirci) mentre la pianta #1 sa di Kush e lavanda. La Milk Monkey aspettiamo. Per ora è l'unica che non mi dice niente :( Ci vediamo settimana prossima 🖐️ 😎

We got roots, I had a brief PM scare but it ended up being just a salt buildup from spraying the clones with light GH nutrients.
