Hey growers! Another week down, and yeah… I know I’m being repetitive, but I really didn’t expect this kind of explosion from these autos. First time in coco + I started this run kinda pessimistic, so seeing them go full rocket mode caught me off guard. And that’s exactly why the 80×80 is now packed like a jungle, I honestly didn’t think four autos would fill the tent this hard. They’re still stacking and pushing, and the frost is definitely there, but space + environment are clearly setting some limits right now. Humidity is still my main enemy: even with a dehu inside I can’t get it much under 65%, temps aren’t super high either, so VPD sits around 0.80–0.90 kPa most of the time. Not perfect, but the girls are still moving forward. The good part? This run basically showed me my method. I’m pretty meticolous with checking numbers, and coco makes it way easier to stay on top of everything daily input/runoff EC, pH, the whole routine and I feel like that control fits my style perfectly. Quick note: on the Hyperion that started flowering first I noticed a bit of pistil darkening at the tips. For a second I was like “please no…” 😅 I checked what I could and didn’t find any obvious male parts, so I’m leaning toward simple stress/environment/light stuff. Runoff pH/EC looks fine, so I’ll keep an eye on it and keep going. I’ll finish this run with realistic expectations and take the lesson home. Good luck everyone and happy growing! 🌱

Fractal was harvested on Sept 12. Due to extended period of high temperatures and humidity with more rain expected every day following another hurricane. The other gals were showing disease. That was the determining factor to chop all outside girls down. Fractal hung in the dark for 2 days. Because her grow family experienced bud rot and wilt, she was examined carefully for any disease. She was disease free. Fractal had a long vegetative phase. Probably too long since I started my outside grow in April so they would be hardened off before I went on vacay in May. Three months of veg caused massive vegetative growth. The various breeder notes on photo period seeds indicate late September or October harvest. So that was in the back of my mind during this grow. 👉 Note for next year start seeds later in spring. 👉 Plan start date based on counting back from the vernal equinox. 👉 Based on such a long growing season, Autos may be preferable to finish quickly and not have extended vegetation phase before flower. Thank you @DivineSeeds for the opportunity to grow your exotic strains and participate in your contest. I will definitely grow fractal again.

Day 1: This was the fastest germination I have seen. Only 72hrs from being planted to looking happy and healthy above ground. My plan is to not water this week and only rely on the humidifier which is filled with Ph’d water for feeding the plant. Now that the seedling is above ground I have changed from the 3 small CFL’s to just one 200watt CFL. I’ve added a strip of silver tape around the inside of the top of the pot to help reflect light. Day 2: Looking good. I put a few drops of water around the seedling just to dampen the soil a bit. Temperature is a bit hotter than I’d like at 30 degrees with the lights on but that’s down to the outside warm weather conditions. Seems to be okay though. Day 3: Happy and healthy. I put another few drops of water around it again to keep the soil damp, but only in close to the seedling. I’m keeping the top layer of the rest of the soil dry so it’s not appealing for little bugs and mould. Underneath the dry layer the soil is still wet since I soaked it through before planting the seed. Day 4: Getting wider but not any taller which is awesome. I put another few drops of water around the bass of the stem. The humidity doesn’t seem to be enough on its own, probably because of the high temperature. Day 5: Happy and healthy looking. Day 6: Everything is awesome. Day 7: One week old and it’s all looking good. Another few drops of water again today around the stem. Plant is starting to take shape. Wahoo, one week down.

Mild defoliation throughout this week. Flush imminent so will leave the remaining fans as nute banks. Next run with these genetics I'll be running a monstercropped clone under this scrog and will go heavier with the defoliation earlier on. I was advised this on here this grow and did a bit but have learned I need more! Forever learning. Looks like it's gonna be an epic harvest. These girls smell absolutely dank. Testament to the quality of these Madame Grow Fertilisers. Harvest just get better every time! Also big shout out to my bro at NatureDelight.co.uk providing some awesome organics to add into the grow schedule. Used The Active Sugar Boost all through flower at 3ml per litre this run and I think the results speak for themselves. I cannot implore you guys enough to go check this stuff out. It's unique and you wont find better customer service. Lots of vids and content this week as we all love bud shots <3

All done and dusted on this bad boy. Nice big bushy auto that did its job from the beginning. It was always harder work than the Do Si Dos and with what I’ve hung up to dry I don’t think it’ll have a larger harvest either. The smell is super strong and very fruity and will give an updated the final smoke and weight. 🙌🏼

Hello all friends! Last week I disturbed my girls for the last time. did a very hard defoliation. also cleared of everything superfluous that was below the skrog. Overall, both plants are doing great. I think that the harvest should be excellent and high quality! Now all that's left is to wait!! @Zammi_official what can you say abouth this Double Gorillas?😜

She is a very beautiful baby. The Purple Lemonade is growing regular, she is very topping reactive and new brunches go fast. In this case the first top was not so perfect and a central brunche is reborn and i fimmed it. The first buds "peluria" is visible.

This week the plant was bended, and accidentally i broke a branch ... But she recovered well, she selected the other branches to grow just like in 2 h nothing could be done, but as you can see she is concentrating the growth in the other colas, so the structure is bended against the pot and with 3 main branches at the moment... Another little problem appeared when, 2 days after using Green Explosion in a half dose, i raised the Top Veg to 2.5 ml/l but she reacted bad and some overfertilization spots are apperaing in the tips of the leaves, im uploading it when the next week is complete... But dont worry is not too much overdose, just a little, (Its like she said thats the limit at the moment ) so after this, next 2 irrigations are being done with plain water to flush the soil... Im not using Micro Vita, but i gotta get that magic microbes to avoid this messy things, they muffle all this changes in PH !!! So next week, transplanting to definitive text pot, bacterian life and until the end :) But everything is fine this plant is soo strong and nothing cant stop her at the moment :D Take care GD !!

Paper towels placed between two dinner plates, placed on heating mat. 48 hours all seeds had tap roots. Placed in solo cups filled with coco loco, and sprinkled a little Great White in the holes. All seeds sprouted with in 36 hours. 76-78 degrees with 80% humidity. 100% Germination - AMAZING! #nomids

Last compost tea feeding tomorrow will be the end of week 7. I am very happy with this girl. She has massive sense even colas. She’s covered in 💎 and smells amazing. No issues of any kind. The last week and a half she’s only gotten organic teas and will only be given water for the next 7-10 days and then nothing till harvest with 36 hours of darkness

Week 6 flower Defoliated some leave in the middle central canopy to increase airflow and prevent mold. 25°c day 20°c night 45-50 humidity Forgot about cal mag,started spotting rust/Brown spots and purple branches, started giving 1ml/l cal mag, Wednesday 7l decholirated water with 7ml cal mag. Think we just passed peak swell, resin production is increasing, more smell coming out. Did some light lst on lower branches that where not getting light at all and were growing straight up in the canopy. All in all this is looking ok, i could have used a net to keep them more spread out. We learn as we go. 30-40% brown pistils Trichomes very visible on sugar leaves. SF2000 upgrade went well past week. Increased intensity gradually from 70 to 100% it did increased tent temperature by 2-3 °c, adjusted room temp, + ventilator blowing between light and top of plant vertically to remove direct heat from lamp on cola's.

day 26 of flower, gorgeous plant very unique leaf structure, and tall as hell, the experiment of topping on say 4 of flower seems to be paying off, i’m very happy with it at this height. looks like the beginning of anthocyanin breakdown are occuring in the fan leaves

It's now the start of Week 6. I defoliated like 4 fan leaves because they were disgustingly huge, 😅. So I added the "Defoliation" grow technique. 😆

Most of the girls have been switched to straight fresh water at this point, with the exception of the few that look to need another week or two before flushing. Dropping the room temps and tossing a few ice cubes on top of tops before watering.

Wieder eine Woche ist rum und den Pflanzen geht es gut. Ich wundere mich nur dass GG#4 erst jetzt nach Tag 63 in die Blütephase übergeht. Sie ist wirklich sehr buschig und groß, während Runtz F1 nur halb so groß ist aber schon sehr weit vorangeschritten. Einen so starken Unterschied hätte ich nicht erwartet.

Het is een mooie week geweest voor haar. Ze voelt zich prettig onder het led licht en de bloemen worden steeds dikker en de bladeren hebben een prachtige groene kleur. Dit wordt de laatste week dat ze de power roots en pure zyme krijgt, vanaf volgende week zal ik deze vervangen voor de green sensation. Ik zal gedurende de week foto's updaten. Dag 49: de bloemen worden dikker en 1 zijtak heeft de hoofd cola in lengte ingehaald. Zie filmpje Morgen start week 8 😁👌🏼 To be continued...

Day 15, 1st day of week 3 since sprouting out of the peat plugs. Haven’t been fed yet but will be getting a light feed this week. Hopefully the weather will pick up again soon and they’ll start to flourish!
