APRICOT GORILLA AUTO / GANJA FARMER Week #9 OVERALL WEEK #3 FLOWER This week this lady had no issues and continues to shine her buds are forming nicely and she's looking healthy 👌!! Stay Growing!! Thank you for stopping by and taking a look it's much appreciated!! Thank you GANJA FARMER!! APRICOT GORILLA AUTO / GANJA FARMER

It is very low for harvest; I have been applying overdrive,3ml per 1,5L, three times in the last waterings, I will apply again one last time and proceed to washing roots. Then I will continue watering only with water until the end, I estimate there will be about two weeks or less left for harvest.👌🏻🐦

I have introduced a second bottle of CO2 to pump flowering weeks, I have cut off nutrients completely to get rid of nutes burn, plants are been fed PH water only. For this run I have been using a DIY automated drip system that cost me less than $100, this system can be used to feed up to 10 plants, now I can go way for days without a worry :) if anyone is interested here is my Instagram video: https://www.instagram.com/p/Bwm1kO0BTNC/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link Stay Lit folks 👩‍🌾🏻

Frostbanger Plants 1-6 Week 9 May 18– 24 FLOWER 5 Nutrients : 3 gal GH Micro 20 ml GH Gro 10 ml GH Bloom 30ml CalMag 15 ml Recharge 10ml Green sensation 15ml Power buds 7.5 ml 5/18 PH 6.67, PPM 935, temp 68.5 1 ltr each 5/20 PH 6.67, PPM 1330, temp 68.5 2ltr each 5/23 PH 6.6, PPM 1570, temp 68.5 2ltr each 5/24 pics & vid Since all 6 gals are getting frosty, I did some trichome pics. The statistics on Frostbanger indicate 50-day flower. Pics show mostly clear and milky. There are a few with amber trichs and many orange pistils indicating maturation. At least 3 more weeks for maturity on these gals. I continue manual control of the environment and using 3 circulating fans and the 4” exhaust vent from my 3x3. I have the AC pushing air in and the exhaust pulling air out. This creates a neutral pressure tent environment-neither positive nor negative. It looks like growth has stopped and plant height has been reached. Now is the time for buds to fatten and frost up. All 6 of them are short remaining less than 3 ft. They range from 15 to 31 inches. #4, 5 &6 are showing some fade, particularly #4. Upon opening the tent, a melon smell comes off the buds if I get close, and more stickiness was observed during the process of defoliation. They are living up to the new strain’s name. #5 is the frostiest followed by #2. Wow week 3 of flower and that much frost already. Before FastBuds announced the strain name and characteristics, I was disappointed that FBA2502 could be an indica sleepy strain but the universe provides what you need at the time. The new strain profile indicates a whopping 29%THC with mainly sativa uplifting, euphoric, social effects with sweet fruity flavors which I love and enjoy. In addition, I recently bought a dap press and this strain is frosty and resinous. She will be great to press for live rosin. FBA2502 is FROSTBANGER. Meet Frostbanger Auto, an autoflowering and Indica-leaning hybrid packing a staggeringly high THC content averaging 29%, making this one of the most potent strains on the market. It was created by Fast Buds through crossbreeding Gorilla Glue and Chemdawg, two equally iconic strains. Growers must know that these difficult-to-grow plants will pose specific challenges in terms of environmental control and nutrition, making them best suited for cultivators with some experience under their belt. The flowering cycle is short, averaging only 50 days, and yields are usually around 300g/m². The Frostbanger Auto flavor and aroma are both mouthwatering with a delightful combination of sweet, fruity, and flowery notes. The high is mainly Sativa-driven with uplifting and happiness-inducing effects that lead to euphoria and a general sense of well-being. You might feel sociable and talkative, but too spacey to say something. Following this surge of energy comes a deepening sense of relaxation, leaving you sedated and completely at ease with the world. Due to its potency and these long-lasting effects, medical patients hail Frostbanger Auto for treating chronic pain, stress, and even depression. Measurements: #1 15” #2 20” #3 17” #4 30” #5 31” #6 24” P.S I added a no churn ice cream recipe in week 4 of Natronas recipes. It is easy 3 ingredients. I bought Mango puree instead of fresh and reduced that to reduce water content. Try it. 😋 Your likes and comments are appreciated. Thanks for stopping by. Growers love 💚🌿 💫Natrona💫

Grandaddy Purple is also ready for flower, shape came along perfect thanks to the defoliation of fan leaves, now the lowers caught up and we are ready to produce some nice flowers. Super healthy plant, excited to see what she will produce !

Time to continue the tissue culture journey! --- Checked on the sterilized media, water, and tools. --- Ooo yea! The growth media in the glass jars have solidified nicely! --- The media in the bottles also look great! Found only one that did not gel properly. --- Hmm. The sterile water bottles are not looking sterile. Unlike the first batch (using distilled water), each RO bottle had tiny white particles floating in the water. --- I think this was due to the water source. The RO water used was from the plant reservoir. For the next sterilization, will try using water straight from the tap. Will discard the entire batch and try again later. - [17:34]: Anyways! Time to cut and sterilize another batch of explant cuttings. --- Using the similar protocols as last time, but with a few changes. --- Instead of distilled, using reverse-osmosis (RO) water. --- Also simplifying the workflow and will not be using the sterile water. --- Only taking cuttings from one cultivar. --- Today, attempting to preserve Heady OG BX1 #1 --- Unlike the last attempt, going to be cutting apical nodes and will leave all leaf growth on. --- Last attempt was more for monsteras and not cannabis. - [17:35]: Made sure the lung room's oscillating fan was OFF during the entire process. --- Put on a fresh pair of nitrile gloves. --- Okay! Let's grow Ensign! - [17:47]: Filled a glass beaker with 180mL of RO water. --- Using a micro-pipette, ------ Added 20mL of Clorox bleach --- Mixed the solution. - [17:52]: Poured the bleach solution into a glass mason jar. ------ Added 1 drop of Dawn dish soap. --- Dropped a magnetic mixing rod into the jar before setting it onto the magnetic stirrer. --- Turned the unit ON and set it to a low setting. --- Placed a polypropylene lid loosely on. - [18:02]: Rinsed and filled the glass beaker with 70% isopropyl alcohol. --- Filled another glass beaker with RO water before adding a drop of Dawn dish soap. Mixed the solution. --- Okay! Time to take the cuttings! --- Using a clean pair of trimmers, - [18:09]: Gently cut two clone cuttings from the Heady OG BX1 #1 mother. --- Stripped each cutting down to 2-inch apical nodes making sure to leave about 0.5 inch of stem growth for planting. ------ Prepared a total of 2 nodal cuttings. --- Dropped the nodal cuttings into the cup of soapy water. --- Swirled the cuttings in the soapy water for a bit. --- Opened the jar containing the 10% bleach solution. --- Using clean tweezers, --- Took each cutting out of the RO water and carefully submerged it into the beaker of 70% isopropyl alcohol for about 30 seconds. --- Then transferred the cutting from the isopropyl alcohol straight into the jar of bleach solution. --- Once both cuttings were in the jar, sealed the top with the polypropylene lid. - [18:23]: Flipped and set the entire bleach jar upside down onto the magnetic stirrer. --- Started using the magnetic stirrer. --- But the cuttings were getting hit by the bar so ended up turning the unit OFF. --- Instead, made sure to swirled the bottle every few minutes to agitate the cuttings. --- For a proper sterilization, the cuttings should be agitated in the hypochlorite (bleach) solution for at least 20 minutes. --- While waiting for the explants to sterilize, prepped the still air box. - [18:39]: Unfolded and placed a Safloga still-air box onto my desk. --- Thoroughly misted the inside of the air box with 70% isopropyl alcohol making sure to coat the entire chamber. --- Then isopropyl misted and placed the following items inside of the still air box, ------ x1 » Jar of Establishment Media ------ x1 » Bottle of Establishment Media ------ x1 » Glass-Bead Sterilizer ------ x1 » Roll of Plastic Wrap [pre-cut] ------ x1 » Sterilization Bag Containing: --------- x3 » Stainless Steel Forceps --------- x3 » Stainless Steel Scissors --- Made sure to fully coat the outside of the tool bag and each of the containers with 70% alcohol. --- The bag had a torn corner (Oops), so made sure to spray the inside with a few mists of isopropyl alcohol. --- For the glass-bead sterilizer, ------ Wiped the entire unit with isopropyl alcohol. ------ Before filling the unit with the included beads, misted the heating chamber with a spray of isopropyl alcohol. ------ Misted the glass beads again with a spray of isopropyl alcohol. --- Set the cleaned glass-bead sterilizer into the still air box. - [19:02]: Still air box fully prepped for explants! --- Okay! Explant nodal sterilization complete! --- While still wearing gloves, --- Misted the outside of the explant jar with 70% isopropyl alcohol before placing it into the still-air box. --- Turned the glass-bead sterilizer ON. --- Made sure to re-seal the chamber. - [19:05]: Okay! Finally time to start the tissue culture transplant! --- Let's go Ensign! --- Sprayed my gloved hands with 70% isopropyl alcohol (also put on a pair of cloth arm sleeves), --- Placed my hands through the arm holes and into the still air box to begin the process. --- Started by laying out my initial workspace: ------ » Far Left Quadrant » Jar of Sterile Establishment Media ------ » Far Center » Bottle of Sterile Establishment Media ------ » Far Right Quadrant » Glass-Bead Sterilizer ------ » Mid Center » Bleach Jar with Explant Cuttings [Main Workspace] ------ » Near Left Quadrant » Empty [Trash Area] ------ » Near Right Quadrant » Bag of Sterile Tools & Roll of Plastic Wrap --- Opened the bag of tools and placed the forceps and scissors into the pre-heated glass-bead sterilizer. --- Set the bag in the trash area (near left quadrant). --- Loosened the lids of both containers of sterile media but did not remove the lids. The lids were resting on top and could easily be lifted. --- Also took lid off of the bleach jar and gently set it on the table. --- Took the jar of sterile media and set it in the center of my workspace (to the right of the bleach jar). --- Using my left hand, took a set of scissors from the glass-bead sterilizer and gently cut the bottom of the first cutting. --- Once the bottom cut was made, placed the scissors back into the glass-bead sterilizer. --- Using my left hand, lifted the lid off of the jar of sterile media and inserted the trimmed end of the cutting straight into the growth media (using my right hand). --- Covered the jar with the lid and placed the forceps back into the glass-bead sterilizer. --- Tighten the lid of the jar and set it aside. ------ [ » REPEATED THE ABOVE PROCESS FOR THE BOTTLE OF GROWTH MEDIA « ] --- Once the last cutting was transferred from the bleach jar into the sterile media, --- Turned the glass-bead sterilizer OFF. --- Cleaned up my workplace and placed the scrap stem tips and bleach jar out of the way (near left quadrant). - [19:28]: Wrapped the lid of each explant container with plastic wrap before setting it in the center of the workspace. --- Explant transplant completed! - [19:59]: Using a label printer (Brother DT410), made a set of labels for each container: ------ Heady OG BX1 #1 | 04.24.25 | Photo | Reg ------ Formula: v0001 | ExBatch: 0002 | Lot: 01 | Pod: 01 ------ Establishment Media | Sealed On: 10/18/25 --- Opened the still air box. --- Then one container at a time, took an explant out and wrapped the lid with a label. --- Set the labeled containers onto the propagation tray (in the 3x3 veg tent). - [20:07]: Done! ------ The explants are around 37 μmol/m²/s which gives a DLI of 2.40 mol/m²/d under an 18/6 light cycle. --- Will check daily for contamination. --- Ca-Caw!! Ahh yea! --- Heady OG BX1 is now officially my first true attempt at cannabis tissue culture! --- Using this new workflow, I may try reusing the TKO media. Do plan to take new cuttings soon. May even try using the liquid media. --- Shout out to microclone and Bill Graham! His 'Tissueponics' video contains tips and tricks of the trade that have straight up changed the way I think of DIY cannabis tissue culture. --- Plan to further refine my process and will continue to refine the workflow with each attempt. - [20:15]: Checked the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: ------------------ [ 4x4 MAIN TENT ] --------------- ------ 54% - [CH01 FT » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 34% - [CH02 FB » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 35% - [CH03 BT » G20 - TKO] ------ 55% - [CH04 BB » G20 - TKO] ------------------ [ 3x3 VEG TENT ] ---------------- ------ 43% - [CH05 BL » GR7 - TKO] ------ 48% - [CH06 BR » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #1] ------ 42% - [CH07 FL » GR7 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 45% - [CH08 FR » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#1] --------- Veg: 38% - 45% | Flower: 45% - 55% --------- General: 30% [Dry] «| 45 - 60% [Moist] |» 70% [Wet] - [20:56]: Checked the 4x4 tent. --- Ca-Caw!

De esta semana destacaré el cambio de luminaria, los Cob por el ATS Pro 300W. al 75% que vendrian a ser 225W. áprox. Algo menos de W de lo que estaban pero al tratarse de una nueva luminaria con más umoles no creo que se me estresen mucho. Más adelante cuando ya estén floreciendo subiré al 100% 300W. Riego cada 3 dias , a final de semana 900ml / planta. Último dia de la quinta semana poda de bajos , añadido unos tutores y el esperado 😜CAMBIO DE FOTOPERIODO a 12/12h. 🙏

I could chop them today but, I'm going to wait another week. I already chopped a few branches down they were looking at me funny.

😺

Ppm spike this week read around 2700 Topped up with fresh water Still learning will do things a little different next time Her height seems to have maxed out Room temp still an issue high 33 deg cel day temps lately .

Looking good

1/25/2024 Vegetation Week 3 Day 1- took 2 Tops today and cleaned up a few lower leaves that were hanging down. The FiM seems to have worked well and looks like I have three branches coming in where it was FiMed. 1/26/2024 Vegetation Week 3 Day 2- took 2 Tops from the sides and took a little of the foliage that was touching the lid. She seems to be doing very well.. Water change day tomorrow.. YAY!! will get a good picture of the roots and see how she is doing. 1/27/2024 Vegetation Week 3 Day 3- Water Change Day! I noticed a slight red coming in on the STEMS which I added a pinch of EPSOM salt to help correct. I added 36 Gallons of Water I added the following Nutes: Silica = .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil CalMag= .75Mil/Gal= 27Mil FloraMicro = 4.2Mil/Gal= 187Mil FloraGro= 3.8Mil/Gal= 137Mil FLoraBloom= 3.0Mil/Gal= 108Mil ORCA = .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil EPSOM- 1 big pinch 1/28/2024 Vegetation Week 3 Day 4- I cleaned her up just a little bit on stuff hanging down. I also made sure the PH is balanced so she could soak up the New Nutes. 1/29/2024 Vegetation Week 3 Day 5- I Got sick, Possibly food poisoned.. Luckily for me the system was able to do what it do and hold it down until I was feeling better. 1/30/2024 Vegetation Week 3 Day 6- I was still to sick to go to my grow room... Possibly food poisoned.. Luckily for me the system was able to do what it do and hold it down until I was feeling better. 1/31/2024 Vegetation Week 3 Day 7- First day back.. Her PH was down to 5.72 so I raised the PH back up closer to 6.0, I took a few pictures and got her height.. Feeling better through prayer so was able to get some pics today.

Processed 2 plants and took some colas off one of the remaining plants make sure my washing volume is consistent. Holy smokes some amazing rosin. Consistency and terps are loud and stinky. Very potent effects. This mfker will put you on ur ass. The fresh press rosin is just outta this world. This strain dumps trichromes. What a great experience. Half way done and I have nearly 80 grams of rosin. Insane! Business is boomin

Fractal ~ Here We Go! 🌿 Tomorrow (day 53 of flowering) harvesting all the top colas Will complete the full harvest at day 60 of flowering - exactly the timeline indicated by Divine Seeds breeders🇨🇦🇺🇦 Nothing but love for them! 💚 First harvest complete! Trimmed all top colas fresh, removing parts without trichomes and selecting only useful trim. Largest cola split to prevent mold, main stem removed. Harvest stats: • Trimmed weight: 127g from this first harvest • Now drying at 57% humidity and 19°C • Very little material without trichomes • Trim sealed in freezer bags (air removed with straw) and frozen - not weighed yet Thanks to everyone for checking in! 🙏 Appreciate you taking a look! More updates soon! 📸

Gave her a heavy defoliation! She's growing very strong, and needed a little thinning out! The defoliation promotes the lower buds growth, by allowing more light penetration! The defoliation also ensures that airflow throughout the plant is strong!

In the immortal words of Garven Dreis "Almost there" One more week I hope, I want to see calyx bursting with beans. There has not been a lot of growth or weight this last week. looks like a medium yielder with tight sticky nugs.
