Had to squish most of the plants together and defoil heavily to make space for the impatient one. Adjusted the daily water intake by a litre as to not suffocate the auto, kept the same feeding schedule otherwise

Man it’s so hot these girls are drinking up so much water!!! Watering everyday. Might be Sweet skunks last nutrient dose, gonna start flush for harvest after today. Plants are starting to fatten up nicely, hopefully we keep this same progress!

Il "super cloner" aeroponico, svolge il suo compito eccellentemente!!!! Sviluppo vegetativo e radicazione esplosivi!!! I fertilizzanti"Advanced Nutrients" si confermano i migliori (la spesa vale l'impresa). Il controllo totale dei parametri di coltivazione, si confermano vincenti! I cloni sono pronti per essere trasferiti nell'impianto RDWC di crescita vegetativa e fioritura.

start of week 4 and shes showing signs of prefloweršŸ˜€ she has grown quite well considering the 12/12 for my photos (now in flower). when i put in the 2nd light i didnt realise how much more light intensity there was and did not raise my light rig up enough so burnt a few leaves 😢.

Hey Nothing Much to say, she smells very good and is happy. I have a lot to do at the moment, which is why there is not so much to say this week. I have a problem with humidity but I can fix it Cannaapeace

4/5 of the seeds germinated. FastBuds replaced my 5th one for free. I had only planned to grow 4 plants. First, I used Rockwool as to not disturb the root system using a heating pad to pop the seeds and a germination container. I only soaked them for the initial 30 seconds and did not rewet them as they were very moist.

Week 8 of flower is in the books and this show is quickly coming to an end. I said last week we had about 7-10 days and I was spot on at the 10 day mark. I was only wrong about the order. The cheese is ready to chop before the rest and the gorilla cookies, cherry Bomb and lemon haze will follow in due course. The cheese is a beast and it’ll take a little time to get it all run through the bowl trimmer. At least the big one goes first. Her tallest colas have foxtailed like mar, despite the late supercrop. You can tell where the sweet spot for the light is at about 10ā€ distance from the canopy. Any closer than that and the tails begin to show prominently. It’s a good example of just how close you can get to these fixtures with a little bit of prior experience. It’s been noted for the next runšŸ˜ŽšŸ‘šŸ˜Ž. The res. is on an h2o2 only flush for the remainder until the rest are ready to come down. Not a moment too soon either - the pollen chucking project has stalled out waiting for these girls to finish and now that we’ll have a little extra room, we can start running our cuts in the aerocloner🤟. Not long at all now folks. Thanks for tagging along through all this. Learned a bunch about this system and we’re back to hardware mode to make some serious improvements for the next runšŸ¤™šŸ˜Ž. I love hardware modešŸ˜‰. Background/Repetitive Nonsense The strain line up on this grow is look’n quite saucy 😈. We’ve got 2 FB strains this time around - Gorilla Cookies (seems we always have some GSC cross in the works). Mainly because the colours look stellar and remind me of a sugar breathe we did last year that was šŸ”„. The other FB is their original Cheese strain... because we already smoked all our cheese... and we really like our cheese...šŸ˜‰. Emerald triangle was kind enough to include a freebie of Lemon Haze. Wasn’t really big on the list but we haven’t done a haze strain to write home about yet so worth a gošŸ‘. The last is a Cherry auto from Bomb seeds that we’ve been trying to get to for months. Let’s just hope that she’s not a dud like the last bean. The new digs for this run are courtesy MarsHydrošŸ‘Š. Their 2x4 single grow tent, paired with a shiny new 240w QB courtesy ViparSpectra. These folks were kind enough to discuss a collaboration and as a result, here we are to test out the gear with an inaugural run of autos. Each week, we’ll try to expand on some of the benefits of each, as well as any limiting factors or considerations that need attention when pondering purchase. Already I can say that both are high quality products in terms of overall craftsmanship. MarsHydro 2x4 Grow Tent: Excellent construction in terms of durability. Reinforced stitching on the zippers and corners ensures zero tearing. Conveniently placed screen vents and intake/exhaust ports. The ceiling exhaust port only exists on the right side. Perfect for me but not great if you’re running exhaust from the top on the left side (left side wall port makes up for this however). The aluminum frame is rigid enough to support the weight of the lights and accessories. Once you have some weight in the tent, she’s go’n nowhere and you can assemble and break it down in record time if moving or stashing the grow op. Only limiting factors I’ve noticed is that temp. Control will be an issue for a tent. It just doesn’t have the same insulating ability as a wood cabinet or other permanent enclosed space. No worries, this is offset by a small desktop heater and keeps the environment exactly where desired. The other issue was a production problem - the ceiling vent was accidentally stitched into the corner seams on the assembly line. Again, no real issue - just pulled it out with no damage or fraying to the tent or portšŸ‘.

Closest comparable to it that I’ve seen would be spiderfarmers line of qbs. They feature the same top-o-the-line components and roughly similar spectrums. Where VS takes the advantage is in the convenience of the dimmer nob which is easily accessible and works great at 50% with no strobingšŸ‘. The heat sink is also larger which contributes to lower temps. That’s not a good thing in my case but beneficial for most folks. I can already say that this will be a great fixture through all stages of growth. Where I know this light will excel will be in the veg. Stage for sure. Dimming function gives seedlings a much better chance of success with the ability to use lower lighting levels early on and the coverage area on a 240w is great. The average grower will find this panel suitable and fitting to their needs in a 2x4 grow space although I’d suggest 2 units if going any larger than that. The total output in this space equates to about 30w/sq.ft. Which is a decent amount of coverage based on power vs. Growprint. Ideal for veg. Certainly but, in flower - I tend to run closer to 50-60w/sq.ft to achieve higher yields. Again, similar fixtures have performed admirably in the past and while this wouldn’t be considered an ā€œentry-levelā€ fixture, I’d recommend that any grower new to the game not skimp on lighting and start with one of these. The price points are a great value for quality LED tech. These days, so there’s little reason to even consider a lesser fixturešŸ‘. I have no detail on limiting factors for this light as yet but have heard that stock branded fixtures don’t necessarily incorporate enough red diodes. I’ve seen no issue myself but confess - I’m no lighting guru.

I guess I first have to extend a big thank you to James and the folks at RQS. The genetics of their ā€œNorthern Lightā€ did not disappoint and this was a no fuss grow across all categories. This will be the only time you hear me refer to Northern Lights in the singular. It’s kinda like calling a ā€œpickerelā€ a ā€œwalleyeā€ - you just don’t do that up herešŸ˜‰. She took well to training, showed no signs of lockout or deficiency, and we were at the top limits of botanicare’s recommended feeding schedule the whole time. I’d call this typical NL - the scent wasn’t overly powerful, she grew somewhat squat and while I’m actually very surprised at the final weigh (thought it would be much less), the whole grow was typical of the strain in my experience. Possibly her biggest limiting factor was simply space constraints. The photos pretty obviously demonstrate that she got really crowded out by the neighbouring kush and I wouldn’t be surprised at all if she’d have done a little better with some more room. That said, what isn’t ā€œtypicalā€ are the effects. RQS touts this as a cup winner and I can see why. Had the opportunity to sample a little and WHOA! She Hits with a lasting, cerebral and euphoric effect that starts as a light, happy high. Not a crippling or dulling effect at all. Just everything you’d expect from a well rounded strain in general. Perfect. I almost wanna describe it as a classic sativa but I’ve been smoking nothing but a pure indica for so many months now that anything different is gonna feel that way šŸ˜‚. Thank Christ for some new stash diversity: 1:! Many, many thanks to all those who cared to comment, suggest or converse on this one. It’s been a pleasure hearing from everyone and I did what I could to keep ā€˜er interesting : 1:. Next up will be a couple autos on RDWC before the summer outdoor season (and a significant indoor upgrade) is upon us. That said, I still might be outta touch for a little while due to ā€œlife developmentsā€. All the best with that quality smoke folksšŸ˜‰: 1:😜! Seeya on the flip side.šŸ‘ŠšŸ˜Ž0

Everyday I try to arrange the branches in the most efficient way. On the 14 th day I removed just a handful of fan leaves. With the lower plant count they are not shading each other so much. I managed to keep the canopy pretty even so far even though they are completely different strains and even three different phenos of runtz x LC. 3 plants get 10 x 4:20 around 1,5 l Other 5 get 10 x 4:20 and 3x 4 minutes another 450 ml = ca 1,9 l Up until now I think it’s my best run ever. High EC is the key with high intensity lights. It changed the whole game. Now I’m feeding 2.5 even to freshly rooted clones. For now I try to keep runoff EC below 5. I think I’m not there yet to push more because I don’t supply enough co2 and my temps are a bit lower then ideal especially in Veg. Honestly they are getting a little bigger then expected. Hope the stretch is almost over. Cheers everyone, Have a good one. Growers love šŸ’š

ƈ iniziata da poco la 4°settima, sembra stiano crescendo bene le piccolešŸ˜ in questi giorni mi sono dedicato a un po' di defogliazione e di giorno in giorno cerco di migliorare LST per favorire la penetrazione della luce. Alzato il dimmer al 75% e ho allontanato un po' la lampada dalle piante e sembra stia o reagendo bene! Spero tanto di fare un buon lavoro! šŸ’Ŗ Ai prossimi aggiornamenti! AGGIORNAMENTO: Sono passati 2 giorni dalle ultime foto pubblicate, si stanno infoltendo per bene le piccolešŸ˜ aspetterò ancora un altro po' per mandarle in fioritura,vorrei riuscire ad occupare più spazio superficiale possibile. Sto alternando con le annaffiature fertilizzando moderatamente una volta si e una no.. per il momento sembra tutto ok!šŸ˜Ž

The last days went unspectacular. All plants do well. Some show some yellow tips. The purple tips are gone after I flushed with ph optimized water and CalMag solution. Somehow quite a population of fungus gnats made themselves comfortable. That is the reason for the many yellow stickers + I watered with Nematodes. Had to clean the Blumat system as some ends were clogged. I increased the amount of light slightly and the maxed the time of the UV bars to 10 minutes per daylight hour. Now to the most interesting news. The buds develop nicely. Slush Mint Cake smells like red bull energy drink. Love that. Hyper Vyper and Skywalker both have their destinctive smell as well. According to the breeder only 4 weeks to go :)

The wicked genetics plants are by far the most potent ones i grew and the most dank smelling like the gary payton x boston kreme pie (gary payton x wedding cake x thin mint cookies) is so dang potent this shit is an indica monster, I can't take more than 3 hits or I'm catatonic 🤣🤣🤣🤣 the gary payton x sour headband is still drying but I tried a little bit and that one is a sativa monster super nice heady high perfect for daytime smoke but both will rock your world if you take more than 2 or 3 hits I've never grown outdoor like this ever before I always grew local strains or clones but after harvesting these 2 plants I have decided that ill be growing nothing but wicked genetics for a long freakin time..the next line up im germinating are all special and will be my biggest challenge yet growing 8 different strains I have never grown and most of them being chem,sour or og kush crosses along with some more gary payton crosses (gp x king Louie og,gp x unicorn poop) highway og,evil og and kings og and triple threat and triple crown and lemon smoothie(lemon skunk x chemsicle) very excited I love growing fire strains I have never tried before these gp crosses impressed me beyond belief and I'm telling you guys go check out wicked genetics on his discord server or on IG or his website www.wickedgenetics.net, he gives tons of freebies if you buy from his discord and has regular and fem seeds if there's one person who's work needs to be admired it's Joshua's man hes doing some special work with og kush's,chemdawg,skunks,and sour strains it's insane how many fire strains I have from him and only really spent a couple hundered dollars where I was spending 0 with rqs and getting 10 northern lights autos seeds that I won't grow and the strains were never anything special not compared to wicked genetics the best bud I grew from royal queen seeds indoor isn't nearly as good tasting or as potent as the gary payton x boston kreem or gp x shb pie I grew outdoors I've never seen that

9-9 Recharge 750 ml Removed first leaves, bud site not ready. 9-11 Day 17 She was getting kinda tall, so over she bends! She was stubborn, but resistance is futile! Bent the day before water. 9-12 Big water, around 2-2.5 liters. Brought soil to where it should be. Will try to maintain 45-55% on eco witt. 9-14 This thing is growing great! Little sad I had to remove a top leaf. Just no way around it. Pistols for 3-4 days. Starting flower tomorrow and top dressing! Lets go! Leafs up!
