During this week, in addition to gnats and hydrophobic soil, I faced high humidity at night and poor ventilation inside the grow tent. I felt this delayed the development of the sprouts. I used only pure water for watering, and even then, I did it in small volumes (50 to 100ml) several times to combat poor nutrient absorption on top of the pot due to the hydrophobic soil. I also applied Bacillus to control the gnats in the larval stage. I noticed that my traps had fewer each day, but it's difficult to completely eliminate these little demons.

Drunken Bitch Slap is doing okay. Nobtrwining this week. I had to neem oil treat everything. I had a russet mite issue in neighboring grow room. Figured I would treat everything in vegging to be safe. She got her first solution change today. Not much else has changed. She is doing well under the Hortibloom Solux 350 light.

9/17 Didn't know this was a new week or I would've taken more pictures. I'm glad I took those two plants. As it dries and I start to trim I could see where it could've turned to rot real easy. It rained enough last night to soak all the girls. The two bottoms I harvest look like the have pm on them. If so I'll wash it or through it in the concentrate bag. Found a few colas a dropped which will go in the concentrate bag. Scoping the toasted toffy and the event horizon and the both look AMAZING! I've scoped the others and I'm extremely impressed. They may be difficult to grow strains but they have high cannabinoid content. The sherb cream pie has really come to life and turned totally purple with beautiful flowers. The girl in the 50 has several soda can sized buds. I hope this weather holds up. I don't like flowers this size getting wet. The sativa leaning hydrid us the only one I may have trouble with. It's only in a 10 gal but it's enormous! If needed I coyld bring it inside at night. The buds look like cat tails. I'm used to growing indica dominant strains. Plant us super healthy though. I'll be intrigued jail for a while and I've gotta make contact with whoever is going to do my extracts. I'll keep this updated. It's a lot of work bur it's worth it. 9/18 WATERED EVERYTHING I GALLON BUT THE BOTTOMS OF THE 2ND EV AND THE TT WHICH EACH GOT A HALF. Since harvest I've noticed some pm spring up on the toasted toffy. Looking at the other event horizon through a scope the trichs are all milky with some amber. I'm just waiting for A LITTLE more amber. And for me to have time and or room. I decided to harvest the tops and majority of one of my event horizon and toasted toffy. Today during an inspection I found a couple grey mold branches and some botrytis on my big GMO on the back. This plant is done. It's by far the furyhest ahead. Septoria effected the yield a little but pistols were retracted and amber was at like 10%. I thought about it and I watched the plant next to it with the pm have a branch I supported just "slough off". Right in my face. I figured if there was a sign tjis was it. I cut that rot off and put the buds from the branch in a bag and froze them then I went around and harvested the limbs on the other plant that were furyhest along. I took about half of it. I could've taken more and maybe I should've but I'm tired. I also noticed a couple spots of grey mold on the plant in the 50. All the leaves were falling off. I finally scoped it and it was right whetr I wanted it to be. Looking at the colors I'm glad I spent so much time the past few days. That one I hung whole. The sherb cream pie has something eating the fresy shoots (probably ear wigs. But the buds are fattening and the trichs aren't quite there. I'm going to let the rest of this stuff go ad long as possible. With the exception of the other event horizon. I finally tried it. It's fucking killer. I could take that plant now. The only reason I'm not is because I have to much work on my husband's as is. I'll do some videos amd pictures but I'm tired as fuck. Got to try event horizon. Very fucking impressed! 9/19 The past 3 days I've been working 5 a.m. to dark. I went back and harvested the bottoms of the toasted toffy and event horizon 1. After injury from harvest they contracted wpm. I used this as a learning experience and put some away in the freezer for concentrates and used a peroxide and water bucket. That's what kills the p.m. anyway. I hung them and they spun in the wind. I blew them lightly with a leaf blower before putting them ok strings I had previously setup with a fan in front of it. I kicked ass today. Toasted toffy got sampled and did NOT disappoint. I had it in a jar though and it was green so I'm not counting this. I do have some dry. I have indoor left too. Like in the video that one GMO looks like it's fucking dying or something. I'd rather cut it and use it for concentrates if it effects my healthy plants. I just checked on that plant in the 50 I hung. It looks amazing under the scope and smells better. Decisions, decisions. I do have a few calls I should make sooner rather than later. We are supposed to be getting rain. 9/20 The past 3 days have been hard. The wife's medical stuff is acting up and I had to tend to harvesting a few. My whole body hurts. I even did my first bud wash yesterday! The ev and tt I took and left some buds on ended up covered in pm. So I decided fuck it and tried bud washing. I also froze some for extracts. Speaking of which I need to male contact with whoever I'm going with this year because I think I've reached the point of diminishing returns on that dieing GMO. When it comes to grey mold and botrytis I don't fuck around. Winds are really high today. Putting the scope to the sherb pie is making me second guess myself too. Oh well. It's not going to rain today. And if needed I can move them in the barn. If I get ahold of Mt processor I'll chop that GMO and bring it right there. The other thing is that I've got tons of weed and a lot of its hanging so I've gotta find someone that will do a batch of live rosin then like a elbow of dry. This is the best part of the year. We'll It's supposed to be. Cutting down good plants us bittersweet. I don't mind chopping that one gmo a little early though because it's close to hitting the point of no return. That little sativa dominant hybrid in the ten is HUGE! The buds are swelling like crazy too. It's got a COUPLE septoria spots but this thing is resilient and easy to move around. This will finish perfectly. So far I'm happy with what I have. I'm GRATEFUL. The two September plants I tried were GREAT. A 90/10 and an 80/20 and they both suprised me and got me exactly whete I wanted to be. I'll keep things updated. I did a video I'll upload. 9/21 Weather is still great and the buds don't even seem wet in the morning. The thing is is that something (rot or ear wigs probably both) have stripped lower interior branches. In some cases stripping them ENTIRELY or chewing the stem right off. It wasnt happening to my favorite GMO or the one in the 30 and the like on in the ten. The Sherb pie I noticed grey mold on 3 different branches. Last time I checked trichs it wasn't ready but I've got to get a handle on this mold/pests or it's going to he taken a little early. We have incliment weather coming Wednesday I think. I'll bring the 10 inside and if I have to I'll bring that perfect GMO in as well. I'm going to scope everything again today. I called a bunch of extractors for prices. I was going to do fresh rosin and just yank and drive but that is looking to be harder. I can get badder made CHEAP from a reputable lab. I think I'll do that. They prefer dry and that way I could through what's left from last year in there. I have this other one GMO that I've had the same issues with. I'm sick of removing bud rot or having to cut interior branches off due to pm. Tried toasted toffy and it was fucking amazing. I'm planning on trimmingvthe ev and if I finish I can bring the other one in. It's done. It's not getting any bigger. Trichs aren't changing. That GMO I am going to scope when I get home and it will be coming down in the next couple days. Otherwise I'll end up with half of what's there. The GMO I took the tops from is finishing up too. If I scope that and it looks decent and I have the time I'll take the remainder. I'm leaning towards doing at least a lb dry for extracts. I've got some frozen. I've got some hanging and most is still in the ground. I sleep on all major decisions. However, I know getting my nice buds soaked when I'm already losing shit to budrot and grey mold isn't the smartest thing. I'll probably take what I can and bring the others inside to keep them safe. I didn't think I'd have this much quantity. I knew quality would be good but this isn't a bad year quantity wise either. I'll keep this updated. 9/22 Busy as hell! Rain coming Tuesday. After a final check of the scope and the flowers and I took the GMO that all the leaves had fallen off of. That plant is going straight to extracts with the one in the thirty. I also "finished" harvesting that GMO that was furthest along. Trichs were getting amber. Been in trim jail. Was going to take the Sherb Pie but I'm not seeing amber yet. I did have to cut off some branches that had rotted. I'll keep an eye on it. It will come down when it's ready. It just sucks losing little bits of it. My favorite GMO is sooooo close to perfect. I should just take it but I'll wait. If we get rain I'll bring that and the sativa looking one in the ten is the barn. Back to work now. Before I forget what strain is what lol. 9/23 Still busy as fuck. I chopped the other event horizon amd hung it whole. It's DONE and it doesn't need to go through the rain storm. I also took the majority of the GMO early pheno. What's left will get plucked off and used for extracts. The big one in the 50 is getting dry. I have finished the event horizon and I'm not "finished" with the toasted toffy but I have it in 5 gal buckets with a food grade lid so u can at least cure correctly. The gmo is still hanging. I'm wondering whether I should wait it out or chop. I'm gonna take care of what I have inside first and hope that shit doesn't eat my plants or that it doesn't rot off. That perfect GMO has one branch with some grey mold. I might cut it off. I'll keep this

Que pasa familia, de nuevo vemos el avance de nuestras northern light xL, es una genética bastante ramificada, a diferencia de las Lemon, estás si escupen brazos laterales a la altura del central. Flores compactas vemos cómo los productos de advanced nutrients cumplen sus funciones. Es una genética que si pide bastante comida a diferencia de las demás. 50% de maximas en humedad y 28 grados de maxima en la temperatura.

Alright, so we're moving along with the grow but some of these ladies seem to be struggling just a little bit more than others... they're definitely growing at a great pace but the foliage just looks rough. I stopped the alfalfa Ferment thinking it might be a little to potent for them right now... we'll see how they look after another week. I'm sure they'll all grow out of the funk.

The mold thing is really sad. We had a super wet and humid summer so I added a fan to my setup. I let the branch with the seeds live to let them finish up. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Set up cost (fixed costs) -Lamp: 40€ -Timer: 3,5€ -Pot: 4€ -Total fixed costs: 47,5€ Given 5 years (or 15 grows) usage time translates to around 3,17€ per grow in materials. Variable costs: -Seeds: 3,17€ -Soil: 6€ -Fertilizer: 3,50€ -Power (100 days 18h/day): ~25,92€ (exact figure after harvest) -Total variable costs: ~38,59€ -Total costs per grow: ~41,76€

Day 42/56: Well , things are hotting up nicely now with these Zamnesia girls. This week has been mainly filling out the many headed beasts among the canopy and these girls have not been slouching. I think the C Banana would have done a lot better had she not been between her stablemate and my FGS girl . they have swamped her a little which has held her back in size and overall girth too. She smells very sweet and the tropical banana smell is certainly in effect.She feels nice and tacky too . no signs of her pistils browning up at all and she is still putting out lots of new pistil growth at this stage. Monster Zkittelz is a different deal and she has decided the area is hers !. She has a lot of lower growth and a good amount of her mains had begun to drop low from weight similar to GG#4. I have now supported her with Yo Yo's and some ties Her sweetness on touching her is instant and she smells more tropical fruity than her stablemate C Banana. Her health is bang on the money with no issues at all . she is similar in development as the banana but has way more bud sets and stacking up close she has nice tight buds and now I have to really start watching the humidity to avoid bud rot. Dehumidifier has been put in now for lights off time mainly as the temps have been a bit high to use it in the uk the past few days. I think they will go at least another 3 weeks before harvest so plenty of time for fattening those many tops. be safe Growmies.

Stretch is finally done and flowers are piling on now! I treated with lost coast as a preventative. I kept the feed the same but it will be altered end of grow week. Canopy is getting hella full can't wait to watch these colas stack on. Did a clean up of the underskirt. Until next update. Happy growing and stay lit fam.

12/13 Week 5 and a big week it will be With all the problems of bad seed, bad rock-wool, and fungus gnats (just to add insult to injury) we still got a grow. All have been treated and top dressed screw those bugs let them eat neem oil and mosquito bits. The big girls in pots are good but the smaller in solo cups were damaged found the source of the critters but may not be able to eliminate it landlord let the roof get a little too leaky, That's ok we got this now. Ok fun stuff: Octo and Plenty will be topped today, its time Pussy is hitting the lower height range where she can be put into Flower. She has hit 16 inches expecting a 100-150% stretch so really want 18" before moving her. Waiting on a harvest there first in a couple of days so should be perfect. Small guys took a big hit from the bugs flushed them with 2.5% h2o2 as a last hurrah for the gnats last night then gave ALL some recharge this AM to give them a bit of help. 12/14 Order of flipping, Pussy (FF7) Plenty (Grn Crk) Octo (LSD) this is based on best guess (guess it is) on stretch Prob dont want the Green Crack (150%) getting too large before moving her, know how that can go 😏 Do want the LSD (100%) pretty good size and the F7(125%) is just ready to go any day. yeah I know wild assed guesses Octo and Plenty are topped and look well, very bushy already Ah screw it moved Pussy into Flower it got crowded in veg and she is 17.75 inches, close enough Solitaire moves in to replace Pussy in the Medicinals... yes its a good one as well. Dont judge... we all did it! Pics Have four different feeds for this grow so will be only tracking Pussy from now on... love this grow Heh The veg tent big girls - 24ml/gal Grow A/B + 2ml/g kanga The veg tent small girls - 10ml/gal " " + 2ml/g kanga The veg tent seedlings - 2ml/L " " +0.5ml/L kanga The sick plants - 1ml/L " " +0.5ml/L kanga Wont change what Pussy gets till tomorrow as she is in for a very long day today. Yep love it Will be working on the roots a while given how those things messed with those. All plants getting some kangaroots affected plants will stay on a low dose, 0.5ml/L till they turn around. !2/16 We have a case of mass survival here folks, the small affected plants are living that should not still be here. Not sure what we will do with em but welcome to the zoo girls. Wife has even managed to turn around a FF2 I was sure was doomed. Yeah she is a keeper Counting chickens perhaps but looks so much better Still dealing with gnats but they no longer dangerous those at least we understand. Each cycle there are fewer CLONE DAY FOR PUSSY! Been looking forward to this have the propagator set up in its own tent we will take up to six clones from her as we may want up to 3 for the grow. Octopussy and Plenty will go into the Flowering tent tomorrow. Chew Mee growing again, looks better Solitaire just looks great Bambi needs transplanting - 2 gal she is sativa The sick germs are turning around finally have them covered to prevent any further nastiness though not think its an issue any longer. See what we get here 12/17 #HisHope has saved another, meet Dink an FFT-2 she will likely stay in a one gallon pot we will see what she does This is particularly notable as she is in rock-wool was like the kiss of death The Medicinals are together in the Flowering tent Plenty and Octo will stay on their veg feed a bit longer. Bloom nuets introduced to Pussy she is stretching very slightly Germs are improving the Gold Leaf and FF8 doing best so far. 12/18 ILGM standing by their word and making good on the Gold Leaf, new pack on its way. Hope one of these will come on up. Clone day for Octopussy and Plenty six from each 12/19 Adjusted feed for the medicinals increasing bloom decreasing grow

Feb 13th: Seeds germinating in Paper towel Feb 14th: Seeds started opening Feb 15th: Seeds sprouting 👌 They all seem to be sprouting well, except the Royal Kush Feb 16th: UPDATE! All seeds worked out well except for Royal kush, which still not sprouted, I think it´s a bad seed. I´ll give it more time anyways. Just transplanted all other seeds to pots! Feb 17th: I threw royal kush away and contacted the Seed Bank got some seeds on the way, all good I´ll start it a week later it´s not a problem. Concerning the babies, (Green Gelato, Royal Gorilla, Northern Light, and Bulkberry) all of them grew out from the soil, I see some odd things but I´m hoping everything is going well Feb 18th: All of them came out, some stronger and some slower but nature seems to be doing its thing 👽

The beginning of flowering was worrying us, we had yellowing and weakness of the leaves, but after a defoliation the plant seems to have re-balanced and seems to be going great again.
