I did a slight defoliation of the skinniest branches, changed up the nutrients a bit, and dropped the light schedule to 12/12 today on 5/31 Canopy is clearly wall to wall, pretty level. May add a second support net during/after stretch. 5/1 noticed a bit of potassium deficiency in some older lower fans, so I added more trio bloom. 5/4 update: The plants are now 33in tall, and showing some N deficiency. My runoff is 1500ppm, which is about double my inflow, so I'm increasing fertigation events, and if that doesn't resolve the issue, I'll be lowing the ppm of my solution.

Vegetative Week 3 This third week of vegetative growth was expected to be a turning point, but it turned out to be another difficult one. The plant did gain a bit of height, roughly a couple of centimeters, which shows that growth hasn’t completely stalled. However, foliage development remains poor, and overall vigor is clearly lacking. The plant is growing, but it doesn’t look healthy or strong. No additional watering was done this week, as the medium did not justify it. Humidity management appears to be a key issue. Under the dome, humidity was still around 95%, which is excessive. The dome has now been fully opened to allow better gas exchange. Removing the small support revealed another concern: the stem lacks strength, as the plant fell over once unsupported. This points to weak structural development and possibly limited transpiration and nutrient uptake. Condensation droplets were observed on the leaves, confirming that the plant is likely oversaturated with moisture. Excess humidity may be preventing proper respiration, which could explain the lack of nutrient absorption and overall stagnation. At this stage, no drastic action is taken. The focus is on observation, environmental adjustments, and understanding the root cause of the stress. This plant should normally be much larger by week three, so close monitoring will continue into next week. See you next week!

This week I've been pulling the top fan leaves to stop the plant growing taller and to allow the side branches to catch up. I also started feeding them. I will probably repot and switch to flower next week now they've all outgrown their mutations.

7/14 12am MONDAY. THEY ARE STILL SLEEPING BUT I HAVE BEEN HAVING THE BEST RESULTS. will continue with aminos, mblue , enzyme. 3am ADDED TRIBBLES TO THE DOCTOR PROP, BIG BIG DAY, AND MAGNETIC FACES..... SHOULD INCREASE MY AMINOFUNUPTAKE. LOOK AT THIS!!!!!!! 🚨WHY DOES TMG POWDER WORK SO GOOD ON ME? from search """"AI Overview You're experiencing positive effects from TMG powder, which is likely due to its diverse roles in supporting crucial bodily functions. Here's a breakdown of the key reasons why TMG (trimethylglycine or betaine) might be working well for you: Methylation Support: TMG is a methyl donor, meaning it provides methyl groups (a carbon atom with three hydrogen atoms) that are vital for a process called methylation. Methylation is involved in numerous bodily functions, including DNA repair, gene expression regulation, detoxification, and the production of neurotransmitters (chemicals that influence mood and cognition). If your body's methylation process was inefficient before supplementing with TMG, the addition of these methyl groups could be enhancing many aspects of your health and well-being. Homocysteine Reduction: TMG helps convert homocysteine, an amino acid that can be damaging at high levels, into methionine. Elevated homocysteine is associated with an increased risk of heart disease, stroke, and other health issues. By supporting healthy homocysteine levels, TMG helps maintain cardiovascular health and blood vessel integrity. Liver Health: TMG plays a role in liver function and detoxification by aiding in fat processing and supporting the body's natural detoxification pathways. Research suggests that TMG may help protect the liver from alcohol damage and be beneficial for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. Cognitive Function and Mood: TMG supports the production of neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine, which are crucial for mood regulation and mental clarity. Some research suggests TMG may enhance the effectiveness of antidepressants and help alleviate symptoms of depression and anxiety, potentially by lowering homocysteine levels. Cellular Health: TMG is an osmolyte, meaning it helps regulate cell volume and maintain fluid and chemical balance within cells. It also acts as an antioxidant, protecting cells from damage caused by oxidative stress. Athletic Performance: Some studies suggest that TMG may improve muscle strength, power, and endurance, potentially by influencing creatine synthesis and reducing fatigue. Important considerations While TMG offers potential benefits, research is still ongoing, and some studies have shown mixed results regarding certain benefits, particularly related to athletic performance. It's always recommended to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new supplement, including TMG, especially if you have existing medical conditions or are taking other medications. High doses of TMG may cause digestive issues in some individuals. In summary, TMG's positive effects are likely due to its ability to support essential methylation processes, help regulate homocysteine levels, promote liver health, and potentially contribute to cognitive function, mood, cellular health, and athletic performance. If you're experiencing positive results, it's a good indication that your body is benefiting from TMG's multifaceted actions. """""""" 7/ 14 1145PM STILL MONDAY. WATERING TODAY WITH THE SYSTEM AND TAMI INSTEAD OF ADVANCED NUTES/ FOR SUPPLEMTNS. TAMI SMELLS LIKE CLEAN FRESH CLAY SO NICE, SO ALL THE PLANTS SMELL LIKE THAT. ONE MORE TIME WITH TAMMY. 🚨 NO ENERGY SHOTS TODAY!!!! JUST COFFEE. ITS THE QUICK SORB AMINOS, NITRIC BOOST, METHELYENE BLUE, TMG POWDER, METHYL FOLATE PLUS, WOW!!! WHAT WORKS ON ME WORKS ON THE PLANTS, JUST ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!! 7/15 Tuesday 424am. All plants are doing great water today with the System and TAMI today, 1pm Tammy is a little bit strong even at a half a milliliter per liter with the exception of the Tyson 2.0 goats. These are just incredible. I can’t begin to describe how strong and how different these are from any other plant I’ve ever grown.🚨🚨🚨👍👍👍👍💥💥🌿 7/16 430am smoking GC Auto I trimmed yesterday, very nice. II love Autos for this. nice smoke right off the plant, no 2 weeks to dry and 4 weeks to cure, nice right away!!! Not perfect some chlorophyll, but bong filters that enough and a nine not too strong feeling. 7/17 330am they are all doing good. I felt it was time to try a higher wattage on the lights. I hope it’s not a mistake, but I have the cooling system worked up so it should help exit the hot air directly off of the driver on the light, they seem very strong and able to handle the extra light we’ll see.🚨🚨👍. 🚨🚨👍 the active and passive cooling system. I have for the LED driver on the light is working great in this tent. They are pulls it out and then the fan on top cools the driver and blows extra air in so it really works much better than just one alone.🚨. Cooling system seems great! Lights up to 120.....98 was TOO LOW, it was ok but just not enough. So low power might be good to a point but lights may need to be erased 10 or 20 Watts depending on how the plants respond and the heat dissipation issues. 7/18 7am WATER TODAY 4am💦💦💦 2 liter mix with 8+8 Con Bloom, 0.5 Tami Bloomtastic, 2 DROPS Methylene BLUE, 2 Nitric Oxide Pills emptied into container, 10 drops Quick Sorb Amino Acid, pH5.9ish 💦💦💦. 145pm the watering worked pretty good today was heavy with amino acids and nitric boost and one drop more of methylene blue than usual. They seem to be holding up quite well under the strain. I am most impressed with Royal queen seeds this might be a gelato I’m not sure I know it’s not what was on the label, but it is the greatest plant I’ve ever grown and I’m gonna have to find a way to contact them and figure out which one this is if you’re from Royal Queen seeds and you’re reading this tell me which one it is. It’s the best thing I’ve ever seen.👍👍👍👍👍🚨🚨 7/19 1am. GOAT's are great, I may put another pot under this one since they wont get much taller and are already on risers. another half gallon of dirt. not sure yet. Taking cuttings today when I trim. 🤬I killed another Banana Purple Punch.....took it off the diary....im starting a new one...I have never not killed one...they still smell great and give at least an eighth but damnit it I cant get those right..and I have more than expected plants I will ruin the others... my new super brain powers are still developing so im still kinda retarded. 7/19 2 pm they’re looking really great goats look the best. The F1 is struggling a little bit under this condition. She might need a bigger pot. She may be one of these that can’t grow in a small one. I might stack another pot underneath of her to see what that will do, give her a little bit more room maybeI checked out 2 gallon pots and they are just way too big for what I’m trying to do and too heavy I can’t lift up a 2 gallon pot without my guts pouring out onto the floor so that’s out

She loves her new home!!! 14cm from the lamp 🔥🔥I want huge buds, baby. This week I added Bug Bud. It’s so strange to treat an autoflowering strain like a normal one. But this plant has some amazing genetics. She loves to be trained, and she loves nutes as well. How can’t you love her? 😍

4/20 Still having trouble getting seeds to grow! 4 out of 6 seeds from the initial pop have died, so I've popped one more Chemdogging and one more Sour Diesel. Placed the popped seeds directly in the pot they'll stay in for the whole grow per suggestions. Built a 30"x36" trellis out of 3/4" PVC pipe, will install a double trellis netting on it once I set up the Blumat watering system. Also added in a smart power strip that now has built-in timers I can control from my phone. Organized all my extra grow equipment and cleaned up the room! The little pots in the photos are some random seeds I'm starting off in here to give to some friends to grow outdoors. 4/25 - sour diesel popped up today! 5/2 Still no luck getting the Chemdogging to sprout, currently waiting on C-dog and a Blackberry auto to sprout in my other two pots. Set up some random plants from seeds I found in a bag of Black Lime and Cookies, put them in a separate room to flower so I can find out if they're female.

my dry and cure style is this: 4 days of hanging upside down to get water activity lower to around 0.6 in 50% humidity and 26 C temp (i know its a little high but we are in a hot summer right now and i cant get it lower even with air conditioner) and then after 4 days of drying i remove leaves and stalks, trim buds and move them to jar for the rest of their life :D . and in the first 4 days of curing i open the jar door and let hem get some fresh air in the jar for about 5 minutes and close the jar door again, after 4 days of curing like that buds are smokable but they will get better as they getting cured about 1 month. buds are one of the hardest as fucking rocks type of buds! very dense , compact , sticky , smelly , amazing at every aspect growing stage was 56 days and flowering stage was 75 days total (harvested tops at day 64th) the total weight of dry buds was : (plant #1 & #3 top buds 56 G + lower buds 22 G ) 78 G + (plant #2 top buds 47 G + lower buds 18 G ) 55 G + (plant #4 top buds 120 G + lower buds 67 G ) 187 G = 367 G

Not much to say this week so I did a few videos... B.A.C. schedule goes on : flowering week 4. Changed clones' tutors for taller ones and used them with mother plant to reshap it to fit perfectly with clones. They are still from 60 to 70 cm, mother is 65 cm : no height change since last week and I can clearly see flowers growing under pistils, stretch is officialy done.😀 03/28 : I lollipopped mother plant (maybe too gently). Clones grow faster with bigger buds and much more trichromes on sugar leaves, but mother plant keep on growing too, despite all mutilations she suffered. She may finish a few weeks after her clones... whatever, it's for fun!

So I thought the plants was going to be a flop but they turned it around, really long time tho for a auto flower, I could of ran photos with a better yield, but never the less these look like 10/10 nugs and smell amazing i can't wait to see how these look dried off.

I had a horrible germination rate then the seedling I finally got was very weak. So I made the best of it, and finished the grow. Frosty buds nice color. Great smell. The Gen 1:11 nutrition works good. Was just the first time using it in DWC. Good looking nugs. Just not one of my best grows. Thank you Mars Hydro, Gen1:11, and Humboldt seed company. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

As the oldest one looks with 25 days of more approx 2 and a half weeks in advance as we can see, all calm advancing at the moment, enduring the high heat temperatures, the ones that were missing were transplanted into larger improvised pots.

My first seed didn't make it due to technical difficulties, so I popped another to try to maximize the output from the mini machine. She is growing well at day 7. Seeing some leaf curling from her adjusting to the environment, but she is still showing steady growth. She is a week behind the 2 plants that were originally germinated. She will be topped around day 10 or 12 as soon as the third node comes up enough to pinch off. I started this setup to compete in the solo cup challenge, but I needed something that will be minimal maintainence and doesn't require hand watering. So this is what I ended up with. I will not be entering since I know it will bring controversy, but I am going to follow the rules and treat this grow as if I am competing. I didn't want to use regular solo cups because last time I had a lot of algae growing in the root zone when I harvested. I opted to use a black light proof cup. These cups were 27 oz originally so I filled them with 16 oz of water, marked the level, then cut them down to 16 oz. I set the drain pipes about an inch from the bottom so they have a little reserve if I have pump or power issues. I know people will see the drains as a way for roots to grow out of the cup but in reality I have to keep the entire pipe free of roots or it will clog and overflow. So I am actually losing a little volume due to this. I filled the bottom inch or so of the cups with river gravel to stop the perlite from washing into the reservoir. I am running a 5 gallon reservoir with a small air pump and the plants will be getting irrigated 24 hours a day from an aquarium power head pump. I set the system up to be totally self contained and easily portable. It was all built from things I had laying around other than 97¢ for the cups. I will be keeping the feed simple as always feeding maxigro and maxibloom with a couple flower boosters.
