What’s going on growmies? Hope you had an amazing week and plenty of 💨. I had a really bad weather this week it rained 4 days straight and the wind was horrific it was like a small hurricane. Also 1 of them looks like dead already so probably im gonna take that space and use it for the 2 green poison im growing leaving this diary either only papaya cookies. Still 1 of them isn’t flowering. This first grow of auto is really giving me headache but ill keep it up! I’ll keep you updated next Sunday hopefully we get a poker with all sunny days around here. Goodsmokes💨🏻

She was harvested this week day 73 from seed week 11. All pistols went amber and trichomes 90% cloudy. As you can see from pics and videos, she is FROSTY. I will put the harvest under next week because i want to give dry weights. She is hanging drying out now. I flushed for 1 week using mollasses and tps signal with ph water. The last 4 weeks of her flowering was done outside in the green house. I cannot wait to try her out. Smells awsome. Good job OSSC!

Hello Growers and Tokers! 👋 👩‍🌾 🧑‍🌾.🔥💨 Sorry for the delay on the weekly updates, had some things I had to attend but I'm back and at it! 21-day defoliation has come.. These pictures were taken on day 20 of flower Nice progress with these ladies, I honestly did expect them to stretch this much. They were pretty heavy on leaves so I did a bit of cleaning of big fan leaves and bottom useless growth.. I admit, went a bit too far with one of them. Should've left a few more fan leaves behind.. 😪😓 Other than that, things are looking good. Bud sites are more visible, sure hope they keep growing out. Stopped adding grow nutrients, only bloom now. That's it for this week hope you're enjoying this progress like I am. Have a good one! One love!

Added 1 tablespoon of baking soda per gallon to watering and we are back to 6.5 24 hours later and holding, Pottasium becomes much harder to uptake with low ph and it was starting to cause yellowing and minor dark spots common from ph potassium deficiency, more understanding I gain of ph and its role to each individual nutrient, I'm going to raise to 7.0. Anthocyanins are a type of flavonoid, a family of powerful antioxidants that fight the effects of aging and oxidative stress. To date, more than 635 different anthocyanins have been identified. What is the color of anthocyanins, and what does this tell us about where we can find them? The definition of anthocyanins is “blue, violet, or red flavonoid pigments found in plants.” In regard to anthocyanin’s structure, anthocyanins are water-soluble, glycoside pigments that can vary in color depending on their specific pH. The exact type of anthocyanin that a fruit or veggie contains is partially what determines how deeply red, purple, violet, blue or even orange it will be. This is one reason why the same food, such as eggplants or onions, can come in many different shades. Here’s the cool thing about most antioxidants: Not only do they benefit you when you eat them, but they also benefit the plants that contain them too. Plants produce phytochemicals like anthocyanin as a protective mechanism; phytochemicals help build plants’ resistance and protect them from being destroyed. For example, anthocyanin can offer a plant protection from being eaten by predators (like bugs, birds or rodents) and from environmental stressors like ultraviolet light, cold temperatures and drought. What do anthocyanins do inside the body once we consume them? We still have a lot to learn to about the exact bioactivity, uptake, absorption and roles of phytonutrients, including anthocyanin. We do know that anthocyanins seem to play a role in fighting free radical damage, which leads to aging and the formation of numerous diseases. (3) Beyond their capacity to fight free radicals/oxidative stress, anthocyanins have many other effects when it comes to protecting cells, tissues and vital organs that we’re still uncovering. For example, research suggests that anthocyanins have positive effects on gut health when they interact with microflora, which can help decrease inflammatory markers associated with many chronic diseases, plus they can support hormonal balance. What are the health benefits of anthocyanins? Some of the conditions that research suggests anthocyanins may help prevent include: Cardiovascular disease and risk factors, such as high blood pressure and hardening of the arteries Cancer Impaired immune function Diabates Neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer’s disease and dementia Symptoms of poor cognitive function, including poor memory and trouble concentrating Fatigue Poor recovery from exercise/physical activity Vision loss Obesity 1. Protection Against Cardiovascular/Heart Disease Overall, many studies have found that having just one to two(or ideally more) servings of anythocyanin-rich foods per day can protect you from problems from high blood pressure and arteriosclerosis. While it’s great to have antioxidant-rich foods every day, even having them several times per week can improve your health. One finding from the Iowa Women’s Health Study, which included more than 34,000 postmenopausal women, found that women who consumed anthocyanin-rich strawberries and blueberries once per week or more experienced significant reductions in risk of death from heart disease/coronary artery disease. (4) Another large body of research from the Nurses’ Health Study I and II, which followed over 46,000 women from and 23,000 men for more than a decade, found evidence that the those with the highest intakes of anthocyanin (especially from blueberries and strawberries) had a significantly decreased risk for developing hypertension, myocardial infarction and/or having a heart attack compared to those with the lowest intake. (5) This was true even after controlling for other factors like exercise level, family history and BMI. Anthocyanin benefits for diabetes and pancreatic disorders have also been unearthed in recent years, and again the efficacy is attributed to the multiple, simultaneous biological effects these pigments cause in the body, including prevention of generation of free radicals, decreased lipid peroxidation, reduced pancreatic swelling, and decreased blood sugar concentrations in urine and blood serum. (6) 2. Improved Immune Function Anthocyanin bioflavonoids may provide protection from DNA damage and lipid peroxidation, plus they have anti-inflammatory effects and help boost production of cytokines that regulate the immune responses. They have also been shown to support hormonal balance by reducing estrogenic activity, help regulate enzyme production that aids nutrient absorption, and strengthen cell membranes by making them less permeable and fragile. (7) 3. Protection Against Cancer Research suggests that anthocyanin can decrease the risk of developing various types of cancer due to its antioxidant, anticarcinogenic and anti-inflammatory effects. This has been demonstrated in both in vitro and in vivo research trials in humans and animals. Studies show that anthocyanins have the ability to naturally fight cancer by blocking cell proliferation and inhibiting tumor formation by interfering with the process of carcinogenesis. One way anthocyanins inhibit tumorigenesis by blocking activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways. (8) Anthocyanin - Dr. Axe 4. Improved Cognitive Function Studies have found that diets high in antioxidants like anthocyanin lead to a reversal in certain age-related deficits that affect neural and behavioral parameters, including memory and motor functions. Anthocyanins have been credited with protecting memory, coordination and neural function in older populations. One study out of Korea found that administration of isolated anthocyanins from purple sweet potato enhanced cognitive performance and inhibited lipid peroxidation in brain tissues in mice. (9) 5. Enhanced Exercise Performance and Recovery Antioxidants seem to improve physical performance by lowering exhaustion and the negative effects of excessive oxygen and radical accumulation during physical activities. In one double-blinded clinical trial that involved 54 female and male athletes, when one group was given 100 milligrams of anthocyanin pills per day for six weeks, the participants in that group were found to experience a significant improvement in their VO2 max (maximal oxygen consumption) compared to the second group that received 100 milligrams of placebo pills daily. (10) Some studies have also found that fruit juices that contain anthocyanins, such as 100 percent tart cherry and blueberry juices, have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects that wind up positively influencing muscle damage following exercise and the ability to properly recover. (11) There’s even evidence from animal studies that anthocyanins consumed as part of a high-fat diet can help inhibit both body weight and adipose tissue increases. (12) 6. Enhanced Vision and Eye Health Anthocyanin has been shown to help enhance night vision and overall vision by protecting the eyes from free radical damage. One study found that oral intake of anthocyanosides from black currants resulted in significantly improved night vision in adults. Research suggests that the enhancement of rhodopsin regeneration and protection against inflammation are at least two mechanisms by which anthocyanins improve sight and protect the eyes. (13)

Sloooooow going. My temps are fine if not ideal, humidity is steadily above 40%. Yet these plants still look weeks behind. If you are reading this and my parameters and see any glaring mistakes please feel free to drop a comment. I am definitely new to organic growing andI just don't know what to do. I started PHing organically this week. I ordered a water conditioner from Microbe life. It's not here yet, but soon. And if my video uploaded you'll see a product from Microbe Lift that will hopefully kill any fungus gnat larvae in the soil. Beyond that adding Armor Si back into my nutrient schedule is the only other thing I can think to snap these plants out of their funk. Good luck everybody else!

...and here I am, at the end of this fantastic journey, with so much knowledge I have got in this process, including regarding myself! Fantastic!! I harvested one week early because I got some issues with mold! Thank you people for helping me when I got into some trouble hahaha Love you all! :-) Peace and freedom!

Diese Woche brachte sehr viel Regen, stehende Luft und hohe Luftfeuchtigkeit. Um die Schimmelgefahr zu minmieren habe ich einen Ventilator in das Folienzelt gehängt. Hoffentlich wirkt er. Wäre schade wenn die Bubatz vom Schimmel betroffen würde. Ansonsten verdicken und verfestigen sich ihre Buds, der Leittrieb wird immer dicker. Der Test der selbstangesetzten Jauchen geht in eine weitere Woche, Demnächst kommt noch Beinwelljauche hinzu. Ein paar Blätter wurden entfernt. Vielen Dank für euren Besuch mit besten Wünschen für eine weitere erfolgreiche Grow-Woche! Aber um es klar zu sagen, bei dem Wetter, das zur Zeit hier herrscht, ist ein erfolgreiches Anbauen der Auto Candy Bubatz XL in den letzten Blütenwochen im Freien ohne Regenschutz nicht möglich. --- This week brought a lot of rain, stagnant air, and high humidity. To minimize the risk of mold, I hung a fan in the foil tent. Hopefully it will work. It would be a shame if the Bubatz were affected by mold. Otherwise, their buds are thickening and hardening, and the main shoot is getting thicker and thicker. The test of the homemade manure will continue for another week, and comfrey manure will be added soon. A few leaves were removed. Thank you for visiting, and best wishes for another successful week of growing! But to be clear, with the weather we are currently experiencing here, it is not possible to successfully grow Auto Candy Bubatz XL outdoors in the last weeks of flowering without rain protection.

I have decided to harvest a little bit early so spider mites don't come back and the weather is favorable for drying this week. After the chop, I also did bud wash with 3 buckets: 1. 5 gallons of water and a cup of lemon juice and a cup of soda bicarbonate 2. Warm water 3. Coldwater There were tons of nasty stuff left in water. After washing I left them to dry under a fan and shook them off to remove as much water as possible and then put back into the tent to dry with a dehumidifier and outtake on with 2 oscillating fans NOT pointed at the plants. Humidity is currently around 55%. After the first day of drying, I realized I will not be able to control good conditions in my tent for drying so I moved the plant to hang dry in the climatized room for a second day. During the second day, I trimmed buds and removed stems and then put them in brown paper bags to slow down the drying process. After 2 days of drying buds now weigh around 240 g, Humidity spiked to 87% outside on the third day and I had to constantly run A/C and a dehumidifier to keep the room at around 20 C and barely 55-60 % humidity. Grew tired of this so I tried something new from the third day. It's called Lotus curing and drying and works with any frost-free fridge. I put brown paper bags with buds inside the fridge at around 7-12 C and the humidity in the fridge is around 40-50%. I also have temperature and humidity probe in one brown paper bag so I can react if it dries to fast. Humidity is hovering around 70-80% currently and my plan is to manipulate humidity inside the fridge by opening it, adding moisture, or regulate temp so humidity drop as slow as possible. When it hits less than 72% when tested outside the fridge in the room temps I will start normal curing process in jars. After a week of drying in the fridge, jars are in the drawer curing right now. I sample tested one Dynavap bowl and flavor is decent with the sweet scent but it still needs a bit more time to be perfect. High was the same as my first Sweet tooth grow, the main thing I felt after finishing Dynavap bowl was calm and relaxed with time slowing down.

Day 31, 20th of October 2021: Welcome to week 5 hello everyone. Here we go these girls are pretty 😍 💕 LST is performed again on them the side and the main branches nicely bent and spread over :) A lot of fan leaves removed as well especially from the bottom of the plants the yellowish ones ;) Smell is more noticeable RQS Ladies: Gelato Cookies is beautiful growing nicely very calm normal.... Smell is getting stronger ... She is happy 😊 doing great!!!! I love💘 Northen Light seems to be a bit bad girl.... I can spot some nitrogen deficiency or might be magnesium.... Well there is no big problem at all hopefully I can manage to make her greener again lol Mastodon Kush.... what a creation! A strong resistant robust genetics! Getting smelly lol.... Well, not necessarily to wrote a lot just check the pics : BEAST!!!!! No signs of any problem for now.... Spliff Ladies: CBD Medi Kush is bombastic strong and healthy no any problem very resilient lady.... Blue Berry is still fighting with some nitrogen or magnesium deficiency but nothing serious problem there.... Spliffs Strawberry 🍓 started growing and grew a lot proper Sativa lady.... And... Afghai Gold she did the most growth. Very nice strong real Indica little chubby bitch hahaha. Fertilization remains the same with the same bat guano, epsom salt and Biobizz family - BioGrow, BioBloom, TopMax... 2x a week epsom just once. Ratio is above... ;) Lamp is on 150W so approx 60% of the max and it is fine just placed the fan kit in so the temp is lower approx 25 degrees and constantly fresh air goes in and the humidity is lower as well around 50%... Every 2 hours ventilation is on as well for 2 minutes just to make a better air circulation. They receive approx 100 ml water a day/plant...

She was ready to get topped! She looks so healthy and vital with enough internodal spacing - so I decided her 3-week anniversary after germinating is a good moment to take her top off. As a beautiful surprise, she has triple stalks at the fourth node, her new top, which will look super pretty when going into LST camp! Also, her lower stalks are already growing strong and long, giving me the feeling, she'll be a bushy lady.
