Hello. This is the end of week 7 and the beginning of week 8 of veg. Got one of the plants spread out. Just waiting for the other branches to get a little longer. Plants are doing good. The pots seem light today, so they will get some nutrient when I'm done with these diary postings. Another week or 2 of veg before I flip to flowering... Stay Tuned. OK. Keep Growing Straight. Chuck.

Well, atmospheric river on the way tonight, so I thought I'd do an early harvest, 42 tops in total! Even though it's a few weeks early, the buds are a really good size and very frosty. I also wanted to open the canopy up for the remaining buds and also check out how bad the rot was, and to my surprise really good! None of the main tops had rot, I spotted a half dozen smaller nugs during harvest. All bud was washed, 3 buckets, baking soda and lemon juice in 1, then 2 clean cold rinse buckets. Snip top, snip off fan leaves only, wash in bucket 1,2 3, hang to dry outside for 15 min, then bring into basement for drying. Will hang dry for 7 days, sweat in paper for a day or 2, then light trim and into grove bags. Bucket 1 after wash was NASTY, grey, couldnt even see the bottom, please wash your outdoor! After harvest I took some more pics, still TONS left to "hopefully" ripen over another 2-3 weeks. Even being this early, the trichomes were looking good. I mostly do Rosin and Edibles, so I don't need max swollen buds. We have 98% humidity over nights, and there's no way to fully ripen in that kind of weather. This is my new favorite strain so far, this was the earliest harvest I've had in a while, buds are great, uniform, almost no budrot so far. I bought bubble bags to try out some hash washing. I fresh froze some small stuff from another plant. If it works out and the rest of this doesn't rot out I'll fresh freeze a ton. I have a small Rosin press to so I finally get to try out some Live Rosin!

February 9 officially all autos are in day 90. Them BigBud is dope, never dissapoints me, stacking dense buds. The trichomes are forming🦍. Cant wait for them to explode more in quantity. Usually i stop feeding them nutes at day 110 and just feed them plain PH water with just banana compost+mollases only.

Great to grow - defoliate like a champ. Check out the sea of beam on thegreenleopard.com Twitter going wild for it - really nice addition to grow space - would take this strain to the moon - check out the light combo - world wide !

Hi! First of all, this is my first time in my life. I planted 2 different kind of plants one is autoflowering (Gelato Cookie D'ohpe), Gelato Cookie Doh-ope Auto By Dr Krippling Seeds Gelato Cookie Doh-ope Auto. Ground breaking genetics have gone into the Triple G range. Grand Heft Auto’s genetics main characteristics is its big composition, and heavy yields. Whilst stabilizing their specially selected Girl Scout Cookies strain with the GHA a number of times, they also crossed this with an amazing Gelato Auto. GGG3’s fruits are ripe with aroma’s and flavor. Yields are approximately 80 gr/plant and the aroma from these flowers are special. The taste from these dense, sticky buds are sure to have you coming back time after time for more of this great tasting flower. The other one is feminized (Purple Punch). Purple Punch Feminized Seeds By Barney’s Farm. Purple Punch Feminized Seeds are a 90% indica dominant hybrid. with a combined lineage of Larry OG x Granddaddy Purple this genetic is capable of an indoor yield of up too 700g/m2. Expect aromas of Baked Apple Pie as well as Cherry and caramelised Blueberries. Also expect a short bushy plant with great trichome production and a THC count of 25%. This high yielding, high THC hybrid is an all-round quality genetic with a fast harvest window of 50 to 60 days. Yet another great addition to Barney’s Farms Cali Connection Range. I started counting my day from the day I started germination. 2 different seeds, one is autoflowering (Gelato Cookie D'ohpe) and the other one is feminized from The Bakery Co. called Purple Punch. I started germination by putting them to the water for 12 hours in the evening on Sunday. After twelve hours I put them between paper towels. It started sprouting very quick, the next day I needed to put them to the soil. Purple Punch the feminized one started growing faster, bigger sprout, compare to the autoflowering Gelato Cookie D'ohpe. I started using a 60 W led lamp for the seedling stage this lamp has 2 head 30-30W that was divided for the two plants 30 W each. The next day they came out of the soil and started their life. The Purple Punch was growing faster. First, I had my own made place made of kitchen foil under my computer desk :D, and then I purchased a grow tent which is 140x60x60. I did not use any ventilation the first week and kept the humidity 85-90 percent, and I used trigger spray on the plant also. Watering the first 7 days was 10 ml in the morning and after 12 hours later also 10ml, so every morning and evening 20ml a day. I also used trigger spray to keep the soil wet around and sprayed the plant also. I never use tap water at any stage I buy still water from the shop and they love it. I want 100 percent organic plants so my nutrition will be bat guano mix with acacia honey. My soil mix is Coco coir, perlite mix 70:30 which is mixed with a soil that consists of 20% sphagnum peat moss, 35% garden peat, 10% high-quality organic Worm-Humus, 30% perlite, and 5% Pre-Mix. These two kinds of soil ratio are 50-50 Percent.

It's been a great week for the seedlings! They've really taken off and are looking strong. I'm planning to transplant them into larger pots in the next few days, so next week's photos should show some impressive growth. I'm so excited to see how they thrive in their new homes! I've been giving them distilled water from the start, and I'm still doing that, but I just started adding 10 milliliters of Fox Farm Big Bloom and 1 milliliter of Fox Farm Grow Big. All of the seedlings are doing really well, and there's not really any visible difference between all the ten strains. I started all ten packs of each strain and kept all the best seedlings, so that's why they're all doing so well.

Day 21 Veg today and all 4 ladies are looking mad for it !! All vibrant and green with plenty of strength in their stems. #1 has been trained this past week by pulling her 5th node over horizontal and keeping it held down by moving the peg along each day. Ideally it will need to be kept lower than the developing nodes from 2,3,and 4 which will be evened out as they progress to be the tops. This will avoid the topping and possible recovery time and also keeps the main intended stem. 7 healthy long thick colas is the intended aim using l.s.t and any other means necessary to get the best I can from this vigorous girl. #2 and # 3 are n on par with each other amd just about hitting their 5th nodes. I am going to try topping 1 and doing the same as #1 to the other. #4 has got more size to her now but looks a way behind her sisters. hopefully she will catch up when she sees the attention her l.s.t siblings are getting.lol So far an impressive few weeks for these genetics. So glad I have another few strains of the exotic auto range to play with too. Happy days. Until next time. be safe and well DAY 23 UPDATE I decided to F.i.m the #2 and #3 girls today so took some pics of their braveness. The #1 has been pulled further down and has a lot of willing competitors for main stems. #4 is still way too small to upset yet and may be left with no cuts and just some supercropping ( auto style). Be interesting to see the Fimming results when done too. F.i.m = Bro science term coined from missed attempts at a straight topping of the maiming stem. "Fuck . I .missed" became the term for this method that can produce some really huge tops of multiple heads if caught at the sweet spot of the node lets see what we get.

Spread this girl out a bit using some string and mild LST. She's responded super well and all the bud sites seem to be getting a nice dose from the TS1000 :) Bit late uploading this week but the pictures were taken back on Tuesday meaning this is still an accurately dated upload.

hey guys sorry for the absence but in this period I have had a lot to do with my work and I have not been able to bring a good detailed diary, but finally now the holidays will start and I will be able to dedicate myself 110% to a new crop and new ones diaries. having said that, I think I will leave him a week at the most and finally reap the benefits 💚🌳💚🌳maybe my fault the RQS slow release nutrients did not perform as much as the ADVs in my tent, you can see it from the video of 27/07/22 where you can see that 2 out of 6 plants are visually leaner and less compact to the touch , I wanted to try on the same varieties in order to have feedback. I think it could also be caused by the crowding of the tent but with the ADV I have not encountered any problems. I will definitely try them again, giving them much more attention.

Mar 10th Week 13 CDP # 2 is doing awesome Some LST required and possibly some more defoliation this week CDP # 1 is picking up a little bit from last week but still far behind it’s sister plant Mar 13th Fresh nutrients today More defoliation CDP # 1 is still lagging behind CDP # 2 is healthy happy filling out nicely It is the biggest plant in the tent Mar 14th Defoliated CDP # 2 big time. Took me an hour or so. This is an experiment with defoliation for me. I want to see if this will help provide the stimulus to produce buds instead of leaves. All in an attempt to get the biggest nuggets I can.

12/15: Some plants are taking too long to transition and stretching beyond my space constraints, so I dialed the photoperiod back to 12/12. 12/16: Fed today and rotated edge plants. Added another 150w of 3000k below the canopy. Sucrose Overdose and Muscadine Wines are still stretching...raised lights again. 12/17: Worked on ventilation...no A/C necessary now, as I'm using another AC Infinity 6" fan to intake outdoor air into the closet whenever temps reach 75f..and it's been cold as hell outside.👍 The final trick will be to replace the 6" exhaust fan with an 8" so as to be able to fully exchange the closet air faster ...but that's gonna have to wait til next season. 12/18: Supercropped a Muscie... again... now she's doing the "letter 'S' thang. I'll force the curves tighter over the new few days if she keeps stretching.
