- Day 57 Noticed quite a dramatic drop in pH today, went from 6.0 to 5.3 in one day. I noticed one of my bubblers was blocked, put in a new one and it's fixed now, hope the issue was due to that. the plant is doing good otherwise. Brought the pH back up to 6.2 now. Day 58 Was happy to see today that the pH drift has been fixed! Seems like the broken bubbler was the problem. pH only dropped down to 6.1 today. I topped the reservoir up with some 6.1 pH water to keep it there. Happy this is fixed now . Day 59 Sadly the water bubbler was not the issue :/. pH dropped down again from 6.1 to 5.3. I fear that she is just drinking so much compared to how small the water reservoir is, which makes the nutrient concentration very strong, brining down the pH. I did a res change today, Let's see what it looks like tomorrow. Day 60 pH went up to 6.5 today after the water res change, which seems to be how it always goes. It goes up the first 1-2 days then it drops hard the next days after. I gave it 6.1pH water today topped the res up more than usual because I will be gone for 2 days, hopefully the pH will stay somewhat stable until I get back. Day 62 Back from my long weekend! The reservoir still had about 1 liter in it, she been drinking a lot. Came home and immediately refilled the reservoir. Noticed pH had also dropped so 5.1!! With the newly added water now it's sitting at 5.9 now. Seems like she is doing well however. Some of the of lower fan leaves yellowed a lot more but that is probably due to all the flowers developing right now. Day 63 Water topped up again with 1.5 liters of pH 6.6 water, which brought the pH back up to 6.1.

Lights got put up to 75% on the xs1000 as I saw signs of pre flower at the start of the week, and then she shot up 10cm overnight and carried on growing pretty quickly.. soon filled out the 45cm x 45cm space to the point I started to consider a little bit of training.. I ended up getting some pipe cleaners and pulled the side stems apart a little for air movement and light to penetrate better but I feel some light defoliatuion may be needed? She got her first feed of bloom and top max aswell as removed the first set of leaves after the cotlydons as they had finally shrivelled up and gone crispy.. thinking of stripping the lower 3rd of the plant soon as the stretch is over but unsure as its an auto and I wanted to keep her completely natural and hands off as I can, a few of the true leaves are starting to die off at the bottom which I probably will remove as they get to more than 50% brown but unsure of whether to remove some green growth or not...

10/31: I fed today with one, signal, sweet & sticky, beastie bloomz, and silica. This strain smells really good..kinda exotic, but it's much leafier than anything else in the garden. They could probably have used less N throughout their lives.. 11/4: Fed with one, signal, sweet & sticky, beastie bloomz, silica, and humic acid. They are fattening up well now and starting to show me some trichomes. Very peculiar aroma....can't quite place it...

Cherry Cola's Grand Flourish in the Floral Symphony Greetings, fellow cultivators! Week 4 has unfurled its petals in the mesmerizing floral journey of our beloved Cherry Cola Auto. The tent is now a stage for a grand botanical opera, and our green queen stands as a testament to the wonders of cultivation. Let's dive into the details of this flourishing spectacle! As we venture deeper into Week 4, the floral elegance of Cherry Cola Auto takes center stage. What was once a lush bush has evolved into a breathtaking beauty, a true testament to the success of our horticultural endeavors. The topping technique and the release from training supports have paved the way for a regal display of colas and buds. The decision to set our Cherry Cola free from the constraints of training supports continues to be a triumph. The tent is now a realm of bushy brilliance, and our green queen stands tall, a majestic presence commanding attention. It's a living masterpiece in perpetual motion. The echoes of our topping tales from previous weeks resonate in the structure of Cherry Cola's colas. Each topped branch has evolved into a flourishing bud-laden entity, contributing to the overall grandeur of our green canvas. The decision to embark on this topping journey has truly paid off. Our nutrient symphony, now joined by the magical touch of Potassium (K), continues to fuel the botanical brilliance. P-Boost and Topbooster, with their orchestration of phosphorus, organic grace, and now potassium magic, create a harmonious dance of blooming processes. The buds are becoming robust, laden with fibers, resins, and sugars, promising a top-tier end product. Every day, the visual majesty of Cherry Cola unfolds with new growth, showcasing the resilience and vitality she possesses. It's more than a plant; it's a living testament to the artistry of cultivation. As we conclude Week 4, Cherry Cola Auto stands as a botanical opera in full swing. The tent is alive with the grand flourish of a floral symphony. Stay tuned, fellow enthusiasts, as we eagerly await the next thrilling act in the Cherry Cola Chronicles!

Ok so this week I did a defoliation and a tigh down too the netting , I really was not planning on doing such a big defoliation but the leafs became thick and dense and there was almost no light penitration down too the lower branches of the plant , so she is opened right up now and the humidity and temperature has dropped loads and the air is moving alot better around the leaves and branches , I will not take anything more off her now , I have also added Cal mag too the nutrients for this week only , she is well into pre flower now but the stretch has not yet started so I figured it's no or never too defoliate and tigh them down , I am very happy with them so far and being new too all this it's all very exciting , Thanks for looking :)

Good morning friends of growdiaries, As you can see in the photos the two automatic, grow and begin to bloom, although not in the same way. A has reached 50cm and is visibly healthy, robust and fit. B has reached 36 cm, but is not as fit as A. Despite the fact that the pots, substrate, nutrients, care and method is the same. We will see in the end what comes. Have fun and happy grow.

Day 36: I bend the branches even more, cut off the top leaf that covered 2 buds, one of them is very small, I hope to give it at least a little chance to grow. This is a victim of a broken branch.

Put the ladies on straight water for this week. Hairs are changing, and most of the trichs are clouded. Have some fox tailing on some of the buds, being so close to the light. Was kind of expecting it, but really, I don't mind a little fox tailing. The top of this AK is thick, hard and full of trichomes. When the runoff water shows under 200 ppm is when these ladies will be coming down. They will be watered, until just a few drops come out the bottom, as to not flush the final ferts out to quickly. Plants have stayed good and healthy, without losing any leaves throughout the grow. Limbs are bending down from the weight of the flowers. Didn't support anything this time, so quite surprised that the branches were able to support these nugs, as long as they did.

Well, another week has passed and it has been growing not exactly as I expected, but they warned me about using only base fertilizers with an inert soil and a higher ambient temperature, I could have a not so good result, well, it's one more experience and I liked it and let's see how it will be until the end of the cycle because the next one I already ordered a starter kit from the advanced nutrients line! Let's Go!

CBD Star bud seem to be thickening up despite obvious signs of deficiencies, likely due to a pH induced nutrient lock out. Phosphorus, nitrogen, calcium, manganese, molybdenum? It’s basically the periodic table of deficiencies. Main cola started to turn purple due to molybdenum deficiency? Found a spider mite on Cheese… sprayed the leaves down with a 1:10 alcohol:water solution which seems to have taken care of the mites.

LST no limite, planta dobrada em 3 vezes, até ficar totalmente horizontal, manter cimo da planta, no mesmo níveis do resto da planta. Bem ela perde um pouco de crescimento, tenho que dar mais umas semanas de crescimento, para poder recuperar. Será um mar verde, mas em ponto pequeno, uma charco verde 😃

Hey farmers, It's day 107 and I'm going to call it done, there's a few amber trichomes and she could probably go ANOTHER week but I need my flower tent. This plant went way overtime, and I made a lot of mistakes, but she smells great and one thing is for sure, I'll have a ton of weed in a few weeks. So, this week I flushed and next week I will harvest, the next update to this diary will be post dry, but before cure. As tradition, I'll have a sneaky taste before putting her in jars. For my next cycle I will be upgrading my lights to Mars Hydro FCE 3000, going from 150w to a whopping 300w. I'll probably get a 3x3 in the near future, too. As always, stay safe and happy farming!

Another good week of growth this week. 🌱🙂 The smell is certainly getting stronger changing to a sweeter smell indicating these girls are starting to produce trichomes. More defoliating again this week removing any leafs blocking main bud sites also removing a few of the lower bud sites that will struggle to receive any light. Light still set at 90% power also still rotating the pots every few days to help spread the light as best I can. 🙂✌️
