2 nights into flower and already they've doubled in size, from what I've seen , this strain is a pure stretcher. Added the scrog net about a foot and a half above the plants. Each plant has 4 main colas. One plant is showing expressions of pink in the leaves and stems, picture below of the leaf. 14.6 Last day of the week (sort of). We're going to conclude the weeks diary on Sunday now instead of Tuesday, it's much easier for my brain that way. All looking well. I can't seem to find the (albeit very mildly) plant that had pinky expressions anymore, although two of them seem to have red streaks on the stems which the other three don't so we will see, I'm hoping there's enough space in here to grow these girls, hopefully the scrog will save my ass. There's some slight discolouration in a couple of leaves on only two plants, not sure why it what may have caused it, maybe spilt nutrients water(although it's a very mild solution). Started introducing nutrients now, (my soil/compost mix was super rich in nitrogen but seriously lacking in p and k) liquid for the moment, but I'm going to add a top dress of compost, worm castings, bone meal, root fusion powder, sulphate of potash and guano). This should mean I won't have to feed many more nutrients, I will however be adding the remainder of Plagron's green sensation and top max and bloom to maximise flower production at least for the first 3-6 weeks of flower, we will see, I have no idea how sativa leaning this strain will turn out, I'm under the impression they're all a kinda 50/50 or sativa like structure.

Last week I fought some yellowing of the leaves. Did some small adjustments on PH to keep it in the 5.6 range. Seemed to stop it from progressing. For Week 3 Veg I topped the plants. I plan to flip the lights at the end of week 3 and move into flower. Day 15 I continued to have yellowing leaves even though I had everything looking right. (Added Pic). I decided to look into the PH to see if I was having issues with it. I have a meter in the water 100% of the time taking a reading every 1 sec. It all looked right. But I decided to Calibrate it in 4,7,10 solutions. Found out that my meter was off. So new to the check list is to calibrate the meter before each grow. I was thinking my PH was High, when in reality it was low. put in some PH up to get it back to 5.5 and over the last 16 hours things look pretty good. Leaves look darker. Day 17 Things are looking good. Leaves are getting darker and new growth coming in. Day 18 Turned room temp down to 73F from 76F. Fearing it is warming up my res tank too much. Day 19 Starting to get yellowing again. checked everything and can't find a good reason for it. Did notice some cloudiness in my res tank. Added 2 ML/Gal of peroxide. have Hydroguard on the way to help. I'll be adding more fans this weekend. I have light air movement currently. Also found a few spider mites and sprayed Greencleaner to all plants. Current environment settings: Room Temp 72.74 F Room Humidity 63.63% (After spraying, Trending down). Room CO2 589PPM Tank PH 5.70 Tank PPM (500 Scale) 953 Tank Temp 74.05 F Day 20 Recalibrated my EC probe just to be sure it was also accurate. wasn't off by much. Dialed back my flooding to every 5 hours to encourage Rooting. <-- Strong roots = strong Plants Sprayed for mites

I started her flushing this week. I think she wants another week to ripen so I don’t plan to chop her until next Saturday (29/2). She is still filling in the runs on her tops. Two weeks ago I wouldn’t have thought she could but there’s been plenty of calyx growth and the runs are nearly gone 😃.

Nueva poda de apicales y una de silicio. Con 26 dias Harto de los plomos me deshice de ellos y así seguiran creciendo , tal cual quedaron. No pretendo hacerles mucho más, más adelante igual doblamos alguna rama para guiarla y quitar algun chupóptero. A los 26 dias también se subió la potencia del lumatek al 75%. unos 220 W. áprox. y así pasaran hasta que se cambie el fotoperiodo.

This has been my favorite fast buds strain of all time and just even as a photoperiod it would be my favorite. I'm so glad that it's an auto because I cant wait for these frosty 27% nugs. Check back next week to see just how fast they grow! & remember its 4:20 somewhere!!!!!

I really slacked at the end of this grow, my schedule changed drastically in the last month and I was unable to really take care of her the way I wanted. She yielded a 56 grams exactly.

Our beauty is looking good, isn't she? Her buds are thickening and the trichomes getting more of that gorgeous purple color. Some are already cloudy, few (most of them are damaged, probably due to looking at them under our mikroskopic lense too closely) turned amber. Harvest is set to be at week 8 in flower, so it's 2 weeks from now on, but we'll see how she develops by then. Smell-wise it's pretty bareable right now; we feared that our whole apartment would smell like a huge coffeeshop in amsterdam, but by keeping the door to our "growroom" closed you can hardly smell anything. It's only when touching some frosty leaves while defoliating that you get some of the strain-specific scents, mostly consisting of citrusy aroma with earthy undertones. Temperature is stable right now; the severe heat wave should be gone for the next weeks and by meagerly opening the door we can adjust the temperatures quite good. Humidity is also pretty solid thanks to our dehumidifier.

This plant literally outgrew a 4 by 4 at 87 inches tall I had the light at the top and quickly realized I had to toss her in the greenhouse about halfway through her life. Super happy with the size of it 43 inches tall exactly. Not sure if shes gonna stretch more but lmao the biggest auto I've ever grow. Mad respect to ILGM genetics right now. Check back next week to see how much her buds swell! Remember it's always 4:20 somewhere once an hour every hour!!!!!!

This week I made the decision to remove the ScrOG net because the plant has stunted growing and the leaves were droopy before and after watering . Given the fact she is an indica dominant strain, my approach to training wasn't the best. Also the light intensity has been adjusted to PPFD level of 700. The light schedule is 18/6, so the DLI is about 45, which is the recommended maximum for autoflowers. I will keep my eyes on her, how is she will react.

Una semana con lluvia y mucho viento. Han soportado muy bien, estoy sorprendido. El crecimiento sigue constante. A week with rain and a lot of wind. They have endured very well, I am surprised. The growth is still constant.

Super soil Diary update 20th Feb 2020 So another week bites the dust and it's time to update again. I let the soil dry out within the pot for three days because it had been cooler and I was concerned that I had been overwatering. When I did give her a drink it was 10Lof Rainwater mixed with some Mollasses and ph'd to 6.5. I also gave her some epsom salts and I also finally got around to doing the worm warm, so All of my Photo strain girls got aprox half a kilo of fresh worm castings each. I have some more "high tea" bubbling away (see above video) that will be given to the plants later this week. After all that the soil should be very happy and hopefully this will pass onto the Wifi in the form of fat buds. Remember keep your soil happy and your plants will be happy too. Cheers for checking out this weeks update If you liked it please leave a like 👊👍

Day 37 We started with nutes today Then all day long outdoors From 6AM to 6PM Plus CFL afterwards They rest for 3 hours and then CFL again Btw accidentally snapped one part of one big leave but that okay Since we don't do defoliation on her We guessing it's okay she will recover soon Day 38 Since she's such a queen we wanted to upload a video showing how she starts flowering for the record, thanks a lot You can Always follow me at Instagram @cannagrowersiriuz Also don't forget to add your comment below, it is important to us! We want to learn, any tips, suggestion, more than welcome my friends Happy Growing Day 39 Some mins before installing ScroG Day 40 Wonderful, she's out of there already so huge, full of buds Day 41 she's actually doing great full of buds but those 2 first leaves are a little bit sad looking weird plus those black dots idk and it's turning yellow in between I decided to remove it and well, I'm hoping she's doing well what else I could think of guys any help or concerns? At the end of the day, she's overall healthy and strong Day 42 Time to feed the babies, so we added 900PPM (300ml) floranova grow Followed by 1590ppm (300ml) flora nova bloom to make sure she's got all nutrients balanced well, also added 400ml of plain water after that so they could get a nice run off. I think they're happy and we gonna check on them in a couple days to see how they go, Ph is around 6.2 which is great Temp outdoors from 7-@ 1pm around 25C to 36C Then back indoors Temp is 28C and drop to 22 at night and dawn so they're good and comfortable Keeping humidity lvls around 40/65% top Nice AC and Fan for air circulation Thank you all for your support
