Finish line crosses quick! Thanks for joining me will be sure to update weekly next journal so be sure to follow along!

Day 63: This should be the last week in veg. It might be a partial week...I'll make the call in a few days. I'm excited to see these babes flower!!! Day 64: Last night I saw what appeared to be signs of overwatering, so I turned off the humidifier and the temp increased immediately and today, they look just fine. I also raised the 150W LED on that side of the tent just a bit to reduce the intensity. This will be the last week for veg. I flipped the other tent, but these babes need just a little longer before flipping. Day 65: They looked pretty thirsty today, so I fed 1 gal of late veg nutes per plant. The soil was very dry according to my meter, so if I overwatered last time, they had plenty of dryness today. Day 67: I came home to near wilting plants! It had been 52 hours since last feeding and I've never seen them this thirsty during this grow. I watered 1 gal/plant again and GZ is showing the same signs of over watering again. The leaf color is fine with zero nutrient issues, so I suspect there may be a root problem. I don't know what else it could be? Day 68: The moisture meter showed bone dry again, so I watered a half gallon of water/cal-mag. Day 69: She was dry again today, so I watered a half gallon of late veg nutes. Day 70: Last day of VEG!

Last week of flowering

🍑 Apricot Automatic – Woche 8 | Blütewoche 3 Diese Woche zeigt sich endlich das wahre Ziel dieses außergewöhnlichen Projekts. Was ursprünglich als drei einzelne Apricot Automatic Pflanzen begann, entwickelt sich immer mehr zu einer einzigen lebenden Skulptur. Mein Ziel war es von Anfang an, drei Pflanzen so miteinander wachsen zu lassen, dass sie später wie eine einzige riesige Pflanze wirken – und genau das beginnt jetzt Realität zu werden. Die ersten drei Blütewochen haben den Stretch fast abgeschlossen. Nun richtet die gesamte Pflanze ihre Energie vollständig auf die Blütenbildung. Überall entstehen neue Budsites und an jeder Verzweigung schieben sich frische weiße Blütenfäden in Richtung Sonne. Besonders spannend ist dabei die gleichmäßige Entwicklung. Statt einer dominanten Hauptcola entstehen unzählige gleich hohe Triebe, wodurch sich später eine unglaublich gleichmäßige Blütendecke bilden dürfte. Trotz des wechselhaften Wetters zeigt die Apricot keinerlei Schwächen. Regen, Wind und kühlere Nächte scheinen sie kaum zu beeindrucken. Das satte Grün der Blätter, die kräftigen Stämme und die vitale Entwicklung sprechen für eine ausgesprochen robuste Genetik. Noch ist von den typischen Apricot-Terpenen nur eine leichte fruchtige Süße wahrnehmbar, doch mit jeder Woche wird das Aroma intensiver werden. Dieses Projekt ist für mich weit mehr als ein normaler Outdoor-Grow. Es ist ein kleines Experiment, das zeigen soll, was möglich ist, wenn drei Pflanzen perfekt miteinander harmonieren und gemeinsam zu einer Einheit erzogen werden. Die Grundlage für eine spektakuläre Blüte ist gelegt – jetzt beginnt der Teil, auf den ich mich seit Wochen freue. Vielen Dank an Fast Buds für diese fantastische Genetik und an Plagron, die auch draußen wieder für kräftiges Wachstum und gesunde Pflanzen sorgen. Three roots... one plant... one dream. 🍑💚 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🍑 Apricot Automatic – Week 8 | Flower Week 3 Week 8 marks a very exciting point in this unique outdoor project. What started as three individual Apricot Automatic plants is slowly transforming into what I imagined from day one—a single giant plant made from three perfectly trained sisters growing together as one. The stretch is almost complete, and all of their energy is now shifting toward flower production. Every branch is stacking fresh white pistils, and new bud sites are appearing across the entire canopy. The most rewarding part is how evenly the plants have developed. Instead of producing one dominant main cola, the training has created a balanced canopy with dozens of equally promising flowering tops that should mature together over the coming weeks. Even with changing outdoor conditions, the Apricot girls continue to impress. Rain, wind and cooler temperatures haven't slowed them down at all. Healthy green foliage, strong stems and vigorous growth prove just how resilient this Fast Buds genetic really is. The famous Apricot aroma is only beginning to reveal itself with subtle fruity sweetness, but I know the coming weeks will unlock the full terpene profile. This grow is much more than simply growing three autoflowers outdoors. It is an experiment to demonstrate what can happen when three plants are carefully trained to become one living masterpiece. The foundation has now been built. From here on, the flowers will tell the rest of the story. A huge thank you to Fast Buds for these amazing genetics and to Plagron for keeping this outdoor project thriving from the very beginning. Three plants. Three root systems. One beautiful masterpiece. 🍑🌿🏆

Week 5 | Jealousy Marker | Vegetation First full week outdoors and she’s already responding well to the sun. At 35cm she’s put on real structure since the move — internode spacing looks good and the canopy is opening up nicely. Natural light at 17 hours, no lamp distance to track anymore. Temperatures this week were on the high end — 35°C during the day dropping to 18°C at night. Wide swing, but she’s handling it without complaint. Humidity sitting at 60%, watering stepped up to 1L per plant per 24h to keep pace with the outdoor conditions. Nutrient stack has been dialled up to match the increased demand: CANNA Aqua Vega at 3 ml/l, CalMag Agent at 0.9 ml/l, Aptus Regulator at 0.1 ml/l. pH 6.2, EC 1.2 mS/cm. Still in the 5L bottomless airpot — roots are free to push down into the native soil below. Updates every Sunday. Stay tuned.

flowering, we swell a little bit

I stressed this lady out early accidentally , she bounced back as best as I permitted room for . She bared with me all the way until the end throughout this entire learning cycle . I’m deeply appreciative for the ease of grow & level of bounce back she had . It was the most impressive grow but it didn’t require rocket science to grow this either

Flip the script to 12/12 waiting on a small tent via amazon to put my MILF in so I do not contaminate the other ladies, clones are hanging in there hope they will be ready to go into flower at 21 days. I just potted up to a 5 gallon fabric pot. They were drinking so much they were dry in 1 1/2 days. gave them a mild feeding and a good watering did not want to give to much trans nuites this week as I just lolly popped and potted up on the same day they look healthy enough to take it but I did not want to over whelm them with the food. so the plan moving forward it to start spraying MILF A in her own tent while the others flower in the big tent then the clones will move in to the tent and flower for 3 weeks all the while spraying MILF A 2 times a day with the CS the hope is by off setting the clones and the mothers by a week the MILF at 4 weeks while have Feminized Polled sacs that will be ready to sprinkle on the clones the other to mothers will flower to completion be chopped and dried and the clones will go until the seeds are mature with in an extra week or two. Stay Safe🙏 I will post more pics this week end.

Day 49 Plants had a little transplant shock from last week as they didn’t really grew much taller. I’m not 100% satisfied with how the veg stage went so far, but I learned a lot and will do better next time. I attached some gardening wire to some of the branches to create a more even canopy. Haven’t watered since last Saturday (transplant) as the soil is still wet and starts to dry out slowly now. Most likely I’ll flip them into flower in 2 weeks around Day 63. I appreciate every advice 🙏🏾

Oggi 17/10/2024 .queste papaya cookies auto Che mi ha regalato la cara Molly di fastbuds, stanno esplodendo di vita😉💪🙏🤣😂.... Forza belle piantine mie ... Oggi 18/10/24 sto pensando di toppare una di ogni varietà...tipo 3 le toppo e 3 no e vediamo qual'è che viene meglio Toppata...,....

It's been 28 days of flower now and The gals are still loving the fc4800 and their new 8x8 mars hydro grow tent as much as I do👍 leaves are sticking straight up towards the light. Love how easy the zippers are to open and close. Nice and strong and guaranteed to last. It has extra material on the backside of the zipper that helps for light leaksand enough ports and vents for anything you need in it👍. the tsw2000 is still going strong and is also a very good light. Its been going almost nonstop for 6 months and still working the same as when I got it👍. not much heat off both lights but the fc4800 is alot cooler and the heat-sinks work extremely well. I have it daisy chained to the tsw2000 and 1 dimmer controls the other and i don't need to be reaching in too far to dim the other light, it's awesome and I can't wait to buy more lights to daisy 4 together👍. I would recommend this light to everyone that grows with leds and have trouble with temperatures getting too high. Even if you grow with HPS lights I think any mars hydro light is a MUST TRY. I like how heavy both lights are because I know it means they are built soild and strong 💪. Very good sign with the frost they are starting to get thanks to bith mars hydro lights. I can notice more frost under the fc4800 and I'm thinking it's from the UV DIODES they put on the fc4800 👍. 2 days ago they all smelt like my nuken, sweet marshmallows. But now I can smell the monkey dough and gorilla glue and skunk monkey coming through👍. I touched a bud on the gorilla and monkey fingers smelt like fruit loops👍 really pleasant smell. Lingered on my fingers for atleast 30 min. I'm glad mars hydro is under priced compared to some brands and for how popular they are. usually companies would charge more. Thanks mars you guys are awesome 🤘🥁🎸. I'm getting a new exhaust fan soon. An 8 inch that will work alot better than my 4 inch lol. Wayyy to small for a 8x8 Grow Tent. Dehumidifier is going almost non stop to try and get the humidity down. I love how both lights on 100% power only raise my temperature 2 or 3 degrees 👍. You can rest your hand on the lights and not much heat comes off them. Obviously there is some heat but for the brightness of the lights and only raising the temp that much is awesome 👌.  And if I wanted to I could remove the driver from the fc4800 and run it on the outside of my tent because the cord is so long but 2 or 3 degrees is barely nothing👍. The girls are starting to bulk up abit now and only 3 weeks of flowering, these lights are awesome 👌.  My last run of monkey dough and gorilla glue didn't start showing alot of crystals until week 4. These were only 2.5 weeks and I started noticing some frost. Next week I will be able to tell more about what these custom bred seeds will be like. I love how the smell is changing now. Didn't want all them to smell like nuken marshmallows lol. It's awesome that I can get right inside the tent to do any work i need👍. Even if I wanted an 4x8 tent. I'd rather this 8x8 because it's so easy to work with the plants and have so much room to move around and massive headroom when I'm in there chillin with the gals🤣🤘.

I'm super happy and really looking forward to trying the Sherbelato. But I'll have to be patient for another 2 weeks

I should have probably let the clones go bit longer and get better established roots before putting them into the DWC net pots.

Day 60: flush 💦 Pictures are taken on day 62📸 --------------------------------------------- She is doing great ✌️💦 Happy growing 🕷️🌱

Day 43 - July 23 The buds are swelling little by little, nothing to report

Cut net down this week and had a reshuffle around, dos si dos was a lot taller so move lights up and put other 3 plants on top on boxes to level top as much as i can Had to do a little late trimming to help airflow down low and just give a little more breathing space as suffered with a little rot on my first grow luckily not too bad though but fingers crossed none at all this time, i managed to avoid it on my secone grow so hopefully will be ok Plant looks strong and healthy, had no issues so far plenty of tops cant wait to see it fatten up
