Was in a rush to finish these due to unforeseen circumstances, so I started the Overdrive feeding early in hopes to compensate for this.

Hey everyone! Another week down, and the heat has officially entered the chat. A brief stormy spell kept things cool last week, but the moment it cleared, the box jumped to 31°C during the day and 28-29°C at night. The Stickies are holding their ground though, no visible heat stress so far, and terpenes are starting to come through beautifully alongside a solid trichome build-up. On the feeding side, runoff EC came in 0.8-0.9 points above input. Message received loud and clear: I'll be dialing the nutrient solution back accordingly. Now for the elephant in the room. The dominant Sticky simply will not stop. Every stem reaching the light has been super cropped in an attempt to contain her, but the side effect is that half the box is now sitting in her shadow. The real frustration? Those same overcrowded tops are shaping up to be the most promising colas in the entire grow. Timing and space haven't done them justice this run, but the potential is undeniable. Nothing left to do but trust the process and see what next week brings. Good luck to everyone and as always critiques and advice are more than welcome! 🙌

Just started them all on the Green Buzz Liquid Organics and will run it the rest of the way. I'm not going to add much to the line just some calmag, enzymes maybe terpinator I have to experiment with it a little bit. The first feed went extremely well the plants instantly reacted within an hour after the feed especially the next day. The additives in this line barely raised PPM at all which I liked. It also doesnt stink like other liquid organics I've used. This is still one of my favorites I love the structure and seems like it should have some variation from the first pheno. It's going to get its second feed with the GBL nutes today with the rest of the crop. Day 21 of flower.

Auto Moon Rock on the Rise 🚀🌿 Week 3 with my Auto Moon Rock is here and she’s looking great! On day 14, I topped her, which you can see in the video and pics — already shaping nicely. This week she gets her first feeding along with a dose of compost tea to boost soil microbes. I’m gently applying some Low Stress Training to keep her growth even and healthy. She handled the transplant into a 19L fabric pot with BioBizz Light Mix, mycorrhiza, and worm compost really well — no signs of stress. First pre-flower signs showed up today — she seems eager to get going! Loving how she’s shaping up so far and excited for the weeks ahead. Care this week: 🔸 Topped on day 14 🔸 Started gentle LST with clips 🔸 Transplanted into 19L fabric pot with BioBizz Light Mix, mycorrhiza & worm compost 🔸 First feeding with BioBizz Grow planned 🔸 Compost tea added for soil health 🔸 pH steady at 6.5 🔸 EC around 900 µS 🔸 First pre-flower signs visible – looking good! Really happy with her growth and shape so far — here’s to a successful run! 💪🌱

Day 43 -23/01/22 looking good 👍

24 hrs of darkness begins. amber trichomes are hard to see under certain lights and through glasses, i dumped the glasses and moved each one to a different room and sure as shit "amber trichomes!". I just realized a jewelers lupe with a light works better without looking through reading glasses. 3 yrs of crap harvests and it aint over yet but if i get these dried at 60rh @ 70 deg F for 6-10 days APPPROX! CAREFUL FOR MOULD, and i got the 32 oz jars, belvidas and humidity guages for cure. as long as i can do that right, man things are really looking good. PRINCETON CAN USE A GUY LIKE JOEL! We'll see. I am starting another diary for the 2 gorilla glues that are growing really slow. I was going to dump them but i kept putting it off and slowly the buds started stacking up. I would love to know if this is common with all seed vendors and not just mine and why its happening like this. More important, I GREW BIG POTENT BUDS BY MYSELF!!!!!!! PRETTY HAPPY ABOUT THAT. HOURS AND HOURS OF VIDEO LESSONS, GROW DIARY QUESTIONS AND LOOKING AT OTHER PEOPLES GROWS, CONDITIONS PRODUCTS, EQUIPMENT AND RESULTS. FOR ME, GROWING WEED INDOORS IS A BIG FREAKING JOB AND I REALLY LOVE DOING IT FOR SOME REASON. IM HOOKED.

First day of chop! and my dry room stinks like fresh wild garlic. I think she's around 500-750 grams in weight, i don't own big scales so couldn't really check. The grow could of been better but around week 5 I had a serious accident so I've had my friend look after my girls so couldn't really train and take off useless popcorn so she looks very airy to me but packed in crystal. I'll update once dry.

Es ist geschafft. Nach fast acht Wochen wurde geerntet. Trotz großer Probleme in der Blüte, bin ich absolut überrascht. Das sich so tolle Buds unter den endlosen Blättern versteckt haben, hätte ich nicht erwartet. Steinhart, harzig und echt wenig Popcorn. ich habe wohl noch nie so lange an einer Pflanze gesessen. Das Blätter - Blüteverhältis hatte leider nicht so ganz gepasst, aber egal. Um so besser, dass es nun erledigt ist. Der Geruch wurde gegen Ende der Blüte glücklicherweise graslastiger. Jetzt trocknet alles im Keller bei 18 Grad und 60% rlf. Das war auch mein erster Photorun mit Living Soil. Die Probleme in der frühen und mittleren Blüte möchte ich nicht darauf schieben. Die Pflanze wurde echt noch super zum Schluss.

11 Sep 2021 Today starts week 2 of the flowering stage and week 10 of life for my lovely Ladies. I did some massive defoliation and pruning the other day and all three of my babies are looking amazing afterwards!! Absolutely beautiful! I have a short video log (I’m not cool enough to call it a vlog), and a few pictures to upload to start this week. I must admit that I really thought I may have overdone the defoliation and pruning, but so far it’s turning out exactly as I had hoped. There are budlets forming at every node, and all three plants are looking healthy and strong. I decided to look at my feed chart and to count backwards from the date that they should be ready for harvest and to arrange their feeding schedule. I made a plan where I can provide a good steady level of nutrients in the proper stage of growth, and schedule time for the flush to be done by the time harvest time arrives. So today I started the Mid-Bloom stage 4 of my Flora-Trio 6 part feeding chart. I’m still giving half the nutrient level until I know there are no issues, then I will adjust to full strength if necessary. At 50% strength each plant was given: CALiMAGic 2ml, FloraMicro 2.4ml, FloraGro 2ml, FloraBloom 4.2ml, Floralicious Plus 1ml, and Liquid KoolBloom 1ml mixed into a gallon of water. The initial pH for all three gallons was 6.3. I wanted to adjust them up, so I added 1.2ml of pH UP to each gallon which adjusted them as follows: C1 - 6.7, and C2/C3 were both adjusted to 6.6. I still don’t have a replacement TDS meter, so only pH was measured in the runoff. Runoff pH was as follows: C1 - 5.9, C2 - 6.1, and C3 - 5.8. The runoff levels of C1 and C3 are still lower than id like, but still manageable. As I mentioned several times above; my plants are looking great, and I plan to keep growing them as they are until this method needs to be adjusted or changed. I’m just letting them grow wild. Granted, I’m trying my best for them to grow the way I want, but I’m not using a support net at all (yet). I say (yet), because once the buds start to bulk up, they may need support to stand upright. If that day comes, I’ll use the net. Time will tell. The temperature in the tent was 82F, and the humidity was 45%. So far my trio is growing beautifully! Enjoy everyone! I am!! 14 Sep 2021 I ended up using only about half of each gallon the other day, so today I gave the rest of each gallon to the perspective plant it belonged to. None of the plants had any real runoff from the amount given today, so I’ll probably start feeding every two days instead of every 3-4. It happens with each grow. The trick is to identify how much they need, and how often. It seems to change with every plant. So as I stated above; each plant received about 1/2 gallon of water and nutrients that was prepared a few days ago. Each plant received CALiMAGic 2ml, FloraMicro 2.4ml, FloraGro 2ml, FloraBloom 4.2ml, Floralicious Plus 1ml, and Liquid KoolBloom 1ml. The pH going in was: C1 - 6.7, C2/C3 - 6.6. As I said above, there wasn’t enough runoff to measure, so I don’t have runoff data today. The temperature in the tent was 84F, and humidity was 57%. I measured each plant and adjusted the lights according to their growth. C1 is now 23 inches tall, C2/C3 are both 23.5 inches tall. I adjusted the lights to all be 15 inches over each plant. Light spill off is still awesome for all three plants, and each one of my lovely ladies is looking absolutely amazing! 15 Sep 2021 My plants are doing AWESOME!! I looked in on them a little earlier today and just sat in my floor and looked at them. They are doing amazing! Absolutely beautiful!! I have used a support (scrog) net for each of my grows so far; till this one. At least so far that is. I may end up putting it in to support the branches once they are loaded with bud, but for right now I have just let them grow as they naturally want too. Of course there are some exceptions to that last statement. At the end of my first week of flower I decided to defoliate and prune them down. I did so much defoliation and pruning that I thought I may have hurt my girls, but nope! They have responded even better than I had hoped. I trimmed off all of the lowest branches that weren’t already long enough to get full light exposure, as well as most of the small intermediate branches growing off of more established branches. The result… every node growing on every branch is developing buds! All of them are getting full light exposure, and ventilation from the fans inside the grow room. These three are looking better than any of my previous plants thus far. I am very pleased with how they’re doing! I’m feeding again today because what I gave them yesterday just didn’t seem sufficient. None of them had any runoff to measure; so I’m going to make sure that they do as well as possible! I’m sticking with the mid-bloom stage 4 of my Flora-Trio 6 part feeding chart at 50% of recommended levels. My plants are doing great at 50% strength so far, so if it isn’t broken, don’t fix it! No deficiencies have been seen, so I’ll keep on keeping on that. Each plant received a mixture of a gallon of water with the following nutrients: CALiMAGic 2ml, FloraMicro 2.4ml, FloraGro 2ml, FloraBloom 4.2ml, Floralicious Plus 1ml, and Liquid KoolBloom 1ml. C1 and C2 didn’t take the whole gallon, but about 3/4 of it. C3 took the whole gallon, but that may be because it is in a bigger pot. The initial pH of each was: C1 - 6.4, C2 - 6.5, and C3 - 6.3. I added pH UP to each as follows: C1 - 2ml, which adjusted to a final pH of 6.7. C2 - 1ml, which adjusted to 6.9, and C3 - 1.5ml, which adjusted to 6.6. I still haven’t gotten another TDS meter, so no TDS data to report. Runoff for all three plants was lower than I expected. C1 was 5.8, and C2/C3 were 5.7. I really expected them to be near 6.2 or thereabouts, but nope. I’m going to have to keep an eye on that. The humidity today was 65%, which is pretty good. The temperature in the tent was 84F. It was over 90F outside today, so hot outside = hot in the tent. 🤷‍♂️ They’re still looking great! Happy growing everyone!

Easy to grow, smelling a lot, we'll see at the end ,hen dry, but promizing

Discovered a magnesium deficiency this week. Flushed and added Epsom salts

Second week of flowering.😎

The weather took a complete turn this week, bringing cooler temperatures and a few rounds of rain. To keep those precious buds safe from direct moisture, I kept her under a roof outside. The humidity spiked a few times due to the rain, but luckily it cleared up quickly enough each time without staying damp for too long. Honestly, this plant is just an absolute joy to cultivate—she is making this outdoor run so much fun! Bud & Color Update: Those purple buds are becoming more beautiful with every passing day. The contrast of the colors out in the natural light is just breathtaking. As expected, she is taking her time and will definitely need to run a bit longer than the Black Orchid Auto to fully ripen, but I am more than happy to wait when the results look this good. Don't forget to swing by the Black Orchid Auto diary on my profile to see how close she is getting to harvest!

Flowering stretch stopped by the look so she will get no taller. Trichomes just showing this week.

This lady has honestly blown me away with how big she got so fast & now the buds are already starting to get huge and have an amazing smell! Will most definitely be getting myself some more Spliff seed genetics💪🏻 Thanks for following & happy growing friends!🙏🏼✌️🏼🌱
