Day 108 Today the last plant was harvested. She was huge, it took me 2 hours to do the wet trim. After trimming, she comes down to 909g wet. Honestly, I would not be surprised if this plant hits close to 200g. Her smell is distinct from all her sisters, curious to experience how she will vape.

And the flowering begins! Changed the timer today to 12/12. The plant stems don't seem perfect to me but the clones didn't come as good as they should have been. They were the only ones i had though. The temperature is too high but i can't lower it anymore it's too hot were i live. Can't wait for the colder days! :/ Usually i opt for Scrog but this time i'm going with LST instead because since the grow space is small, its easier for me in case i want to flush or move the plants around. Gonna start the bloom boosters next week. Yay!

Day 57, didn't upload anything as nothing had changed. Day 58, still no noticeable changes to her but gave her a pH 6 drink. QB still hasn't arrived but hoping soon. The temps here have turned very pleasant and the tent stays between 21 and 25 throughout the day and night. My humidity also stays under 50% which is nice. Ordered a PPM meter, more pH calibration solution and some new soil for the next grow after this one. Ordered some "Super soil" mix that apparently should cover the first 2 months of nutes. Fully prepared to make the next grow a good one after the learning experience on this. I managed to source 5 RQS Diesel Autos and 5 RQS Royal Madre Fotos (I guess the guy only had stock of the older seeds as he listed it by that name and not the Mother Gorilla that I wish it was). I also have the random bagseed growing in the tent with this NL Auto still in Veg but it showed sex this week and turned out to be female. I was using it to practice HST and attempted to FIM / Top her so I will see how she grows and maybe finish her out before starting my next grow of the Diesel Autos, probably 2 at a time. Day 59. Noticing a lot of the lower leaves are yellowing more than before. Not sure if this is at a normal rate or because of a deficiency. Bud sizes don't seem to be increasing in size still but I am not expecting them too at this stage. I am hoping the yellowing is a normal process at this age and isn't happening too soon as she doesn't have a lot of them to spare if they start dropping off this quickly! Day 60. Definitely noticing a lot of leaves starting to fade and die. I am not sure if I should be doing something to fix this or if its part of the natural cycle at this point in her life? Buds look like they are putting on some nice frost though and the smell is really strong now. I had got used to it because when I left the house for shopping and came back, I could smell her from downstairs. Need to invest in a filter but for now making sure the door is closed in the room with the tent seems to be working. Day 61. Decided to give her a watering today as she was looking a bit droopy. My PPM meter still hasn't arrived so I am unable to check the runoff at this point but hopefully the soil isn't still too hot for her. Also waiting for the loupe to arrive to check trichs but from my best attempts to zoom in on them, they still look to have a fair ways to go. Day 62. She's still chugging along. Haven't noticed any new issues or changes to her today since watering yesterday. Temps got a bit cold last night and the tent dropped to 18c from its usual 21c at night. Doesn't seem to have bothered her too much though. QB arrived today! Swapped out the noisy hot blurple for this 150W QB. Currently running it on 100W as I am not sure if the shock between the 230W actual draw blurple to 150W QB would stress the girl out too badly. Already have to say the light coming off this thing feels "cleaner" somehow and its a beauty for taking pictures with. In love already and can't wait to get the next one going. I have a bag seed in veg in the same tent as the auto that I was planning on flowering after she is done, I think the QB on this intensity might fry her though? Day 63. She has spent some time under the new QB and hasn't shown any visible signs of stress with the light sitting at 13" and 100W. I bumped the wattage up to 110 this morning and plan to do 10W more a day until at the full 150W. Gave her a watering today until about 10% runoff. Watered at 6.5 and the run off measured in at 6.6 so next watering I will go for a lower pH. Not sure how it's built up as I've been watering around 6 for a while. Will keep a close eye on her again after bumping the wattage and watering her. The bag seed seems to be perfectly happy with the change in lighting as well and hasn't shown any signs of stress yet. Also got my seeds today! Will likely grow one or two together, not sure which yet though and will wait for the bag seed to finish up. Will give her the whole tent for flowering to see what kind of yields it will pull. Anyone got experience with the strains Royal Madre or the Blue Cheese from RQS?

Day 43-Im waiting just a little longer to flower because she's in my veg tent with no room in my flower tent. If I wait another week or so I can switch this VEG tent into flowering lights. She is a beat! I started to defoliate the inner leaves and did some minor LST my twisty tying the main stocks to the cage. I wanted to "open" her up and get the small branches some light to grow during this veg period. Having a lot of fun with this plantl so far! Day 44-2 feet tall as of today 💪. she has surpassed her step sister(bag seed rando that's actually a phenomenal plant) even with multiple toppings. She is a true work horse IMO. I have 2 very healthy clones taken from her and I am planning on taking 2 more for mothers . Excited to keep her genetics alive to possible breed with this summer. I picked up some original NL#5xHaze seeds from swami I want to breed with this cheese. would be crazy. Day 46- Found a cool branch with three new bud sites coming from one node which was a first for me! Fed with NFTG mid veg feed, recharge, and Mammoth P. Defoliated a few more leaves that I thought blocked light to much from getting to the under growth. I want to focus on growing out the middle of the plant for one more week before throwing it into flower.

Hello. this is the end of week 7 and the beginning of week 8 of veg. What good luck... I've got 7 females and 1 good male out of 9 plants. I killed 1 male and 1 seed didn't pop. Things are going well... The last undecided plant turned out to be a female. So I'm already to repot them and put them in the tent. I've got a 5x5 tent with a Spider Farmer Light, SF4000 in there. I think I'll have to get more soilless soil. I use Sunshine Mix #4. I usually get 4 bales to get me through a year. Lots of big spiders in my yard this year. The bees are sure taking a beating though. I haven't seen one in days. No wasps or mosquitos too. Hope your enjoying the comics. Have Fun. Chuck.

Das Problem bei recycelter Erde ist das man nicht weiß was noch drin ist nach dem spülen. Die Erde hatte microorganismen und Dünger vom letzten run, den ich soweit ausgespült habe. Danach hatte die Erde immer noch einen ec Wert über 1.2... Aber woraus bestehen die 1.2 ec? Im Nachhinein sah ich das es wohl microorganismen waren die den ec hoch hielten...deshalb hatte ich erstmal nicht gedüngt nach dem umtopfen. Die Erde war auch noch relativ nass und musste trocknen. Dafür hab ich die Erde auf einer Folie ausgebreitet und 2..3 Tage liegen lassen...aber ihr kennt es , die Zeit läuft und das Zelt ist leer was ein nogo ist :) Somit habe ich die Töpfe befüllt und micorrhyzza dazu gegeben. Wie ihr sehen könnt habe ich dann die Lampe auf 80 % gestellt und die blüte eingeleitet. Damit kamen bis auf die acp. Gold die lady's net ganz klar da die Nährstoffe fehlten. Ich versuche sie mineralisch wieder schnell fit zu bekommen und möchte dann mit Bio weiter düngen. Ich verwende verschiedene microorganismen die ich flüssig oder in Pulverform verabreiche. Heute 15.11. Bin ich am Ende der 1. Bt. Woche angelangt. Hab also noch was vor mir bis zur ernte.

So the nuggets are dense and doubling in size every few days, the trichomes are cover the plants and they are sticky. The Girls are thirsty, I'm topping them off every other day with 1.5 gallons of nutes, at this point I feel like all i'm doing is mixing nutes in the reservoir. By the time I switch over season two to the grow room, i'm going to increase the size of my reservoir to 10 gallon so I can spend less time mixing. I'll be flushing out the buckets in 2 weeks to give the girls fresh water for the final 2 weeks! My Burp bucket project worked out great. Thanks to several youtube videos those videos are much appreciated! I made a few modification to what I saw online. so here's the parts list: (1) 3.5 gallon Menards Bucket (1) Gamma Bucket Lid 18" Black Irrigation drip tubing 12" Fish tank air hose (2) Fish tank check valves (1) tee for air line (1) small fish tank pump I started out modifying the input, most of the videos I saw had a hose with a check valve just poked in the lower part of the bucket with pin holes and end tied off. What I did is I took the black tubing and circled the bottom of the bucket, then I took a small drill bit and drilled holes through the tubing about every 2 inches to disburse the air all the way around the bucket then I used a tee to connect the 2 ends of the circle and connected that to the tube entering the lower portion of the bucket. the next change I made was instead of having a short hose poke through the upper portion, I drilled a small hole and hot glued the check valve inside the bucket with only the top of the valve sticking out of the bucket. After you get all the hoes and check valves in snap on the Gamma Lid, Tighten it up and turn on the pump. I added the hoses going into the water so you could actually see that its working I plugged the pump into a smart outlet and set it to run for 20 min 3 times a day, so no need to manually burp your nuggets while they are curing. You'll also need to put a 62% boneva 2 way pouch in the bucket with the nugs to keep the humidity correct and optionally have a small hydrometer to verify, I'm going to mount one on the lid to be able to check it without having to open the bucket. unless curiosity gets the best of me....

This week went pretty well, I was out of town, but I was able to monitor these ladies by WYZE Cam, and I set up the feedings on a timer, but I only fed them twice per day while I was gone. They are still getting Cal-Mag, maxibloom, and PK booster. Still running on 19/5 light cycle, and I also did some defoliation when I got back in town just to improve some air flow. Overall I am very happy with these genetics from Sweet Seeds, and I believe I am only a couple weeks from harvest, but I will continue to monitor the trichomes with my optics. Thanks for checking me out and Blaze On!

I found out that we aren’t supposed to give the plants the runoff water oops!! But She is doing great imo .. I’m considering going to a larger pot maybe a 10 gallon!!? Update I have the 10 gallon pot waiting on promixhp but I’m still not sure if I should transplant at this point!?????????? Well I decided not to transplant into a larger pot so the 3 gallon is going to be her home. I also watered yesterday with the full amount of nutrients that Emerald Harvest suggest because in doing some research on Purple kush and found out that Purple kush will actually uptake all the recommended dose ages of nutrients AMAZING and so I gave it a shot! Also I have the Migro 240w at 75% and gradually making my way to 100% before the last two weeks. So far I’ve learned a lot and had plenty of awesome suggestions and answers from everyone within the growdiaries.com community. Thank you

Day 15: From today, 600W LED is placed. Ventilation runs at the same time when the lamp is on +15min after the lamp is off. 20 hours on, 4hours off. Fertilization starts on Monday, Wednesday, Friday with Epsom salt, Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday with bat guano. Water intake 25ml per plant per day plus some triggering spray. They are a bit small so the ventilation "swings" them especially Blackberry Kush and the LSD-25 because they are tallest ones. Day 16: This is new thing for them ventilation and strong lamp. They swing and they need some time. This is why they look weird a bit because they keep swinging and the head of the plant tries to be placed where the light is but sometimes they fell. Day 17: Not a good idea to use triggering spray when the 600W lamp is on it burns. My Colorado Cookies has burnt a bit... Day 18: They are stronger the ventilation does not shock them that much. Glueberry OG needed some assist. Day 20: Yesterday I did not take any picture. They are all cool growing nicely. They are strong enough and no more problem because of the ventilation they are stable.

Well was my third time with this strain and she didn't disappoint. Nice solid sticky AF buds. Could have left it thicker and gotten more yield, but I think there will still be 1.5-2lb after drying, and it's looking like quality will be great for outdoor. Also with all the rain I'm glad I left her airy, there were 0 issues during harvest and growing. Came out of the netting nice and easy, just cut at the branch closest to main stalk, then pull from across the plant and put she comes. Always glad to have friends around to help.made for an easy day.

We are in the seventh week of flowering, we are one step away from harvest and the buds are starting to perfume the whole room, now the filter can no longer retain all the odors!! At the end of the week I lowered the intensity of the lamp to avoid ruining all the fantastic cannabinoids and terpenes produced by this fantastic genetics I'm very satisfied with how this cycle went, the production of trichomes exceeded expectations, the only flaw of using a single very large pot is that I won't be able to get the plants to discharge nutrients properly I will soon share the next cycle with this clone using a different growing method, see you soon
