Update of the garden

8/19/2023 Day 46 Veg: she is finally starting to develop some additional branching. I've been LST and leaf tucking. I was thinking about doing some additional defoliating, but I don't want to slow down her growth anymore. 8/20/2023: started the subirrigation today, with filtered water with a 6.0 ph. 8/21/2023: she is definitely reacting positively to the bottom watering. She was praying more than usual this morning, so hopefully the growth will continue to puck up speed now. 8/23/2023: defoliated a few more of the big fan leaves, to allow more light to the lower branches. 8/24/2023: had to fill up the water again for the subirrigation. Used plane water with a 6.2 ph. Plant is doing great.

Weather all over the place the last week, high of 30c earlier, then highs of 15c and 15mm of rain overnight. Rain is welcome though, our whole area is heavily below average rain / drought this year. Easy week, I keep shuffling up bud clips every week or 2 to help control height and even out cannopy. I'm letting her spill out the sides as much as possible to spread out her growth and open it up. I'll secure a trelis net maybe early / mid August once I know the stretch is over. 10g airpot is still struggling to push into full flower, stretch has subsided, but definitely not flowering as fast as last year when I used fabric pots. I gather she gets less of that "omg root bound" signal in these airpots then she does when she's maxed out fabric. All good though, just hate seeing her in such a long drawn out decision to flower haha. The birds just love my top dress compost so much due to the epic number of bugs (worms, millipedes, etc) , more annoying then anything but they're constantly getting under the canopy removing mulch and pecking away at the feeder roots so I may toss down some bird netting. Other then that she's absolutely beautiful, height is so much better this year, much more spread out, she really is beautiful. Drip irrigation, silica, monster maxx and a weekly spray of LCPT after she dries up from this rain and that's a wrap for week 18.

👽We are continuing. I will not rush to transfer to flowering, I want to try to make the maximum circle (if there is enough space in the box). 💪🏻 I continue to give power root, pure zym, sugar royal. I will water more often, every 2 days. 🦈I will give Fish force 1 times a week. 😤Oops, we had a pickle on the 38th day. I neglected to constantly measure the PPM level, and he gave me 1100. I spilled 400ppm (150 calmag + A + B) on the entire volume of the pot. And immediately after that I gave him 750, as usual, with all additives except fish.

I started germination of 2 Amnesiac Automatic beans on 01/01/2021. HAPPY NEWYEAR! I am germinating them using rockwool cubes and a humidity dome. I pre moistened my plugs with ph balanced water to 6.4 . Than enlarged the pre made holes using a wooden dowel. Than sowed my 2 beans into the holes. I then ripped a small piece of rockwool off each plug and mulched it up. Than lightly filled in the holes using the mulched rockwool. Than it was into the humidity dome to marinate, and complete the germination process. Will likely take roughly 4 days to get some sprouts. Starting my adventure with Spliff Seeds Amnesiac Automatic. After they emerge I will get the plugs planted into 5 gallon pots to rock and roll. Cant fucking wait! Some background information on my experience with Amnesiac auto. I grew 2 of these ladies in one run. This variety stayed in veg for 6 weeks before it made the transition to flower. Produced 2 super branchy plants resulting in a mighty full canopy. Obviously resulting in quite a large yeild. Buds were relatively dense but super chunky! Fat colas were in an abundance. Plants were great height roughly 3 feet, and Not super stretchy. Strain responded well to lst and had no stunting as a result of light bending and manipulation. Very easy going in the nutrient department. Had no trouble at all meeting their dietary needs. Buds were very resinous and unleashed quite a euphoria! I was VERY impressed with the first run. So let's see how the second run goes.

Day 102 since seed touched soil. Again troubles .... Came to check them and found tent dark. Normally theirs day was in the night, now one day we again had no electricity and everything moved 8 hours, so day is day now .... Humidity spikes as hell. I dont want to make wounds, so no defoliation ... just too big of a risk to damage or bring infection in .... Ground level 99% rh, canopy level - 85, lights level - 80 .... never grew in such hight, i did in 65-70 without problems, but this goes overboard ... Drinking slowed down, will reduce volume by 20% next watering. One more feed left. Keeping sticky pads as prevention and it helped to catch 50 or so bugs and maybe prevent infestation. Gnats mostly ... This this girl despite standing in shade , is very very nice. I managed to flatten her out without any HST, proud of myself a bit ;))) 10 days till chop !!! Hope no bud rot !!! Happy Growing !!!

Start in Woche 4. Hat sich einiges an Wuchs getan. Machen langsam den Eindruck wie richtige Pflanzen. Bisher scheint alles ok zu sein. Muss sich auch nicht ändern. Beleuchtung auf 30 DLI bei max 700 PPFD geändert. Schaunmermal, ob sie das aushalten, begrüßen oder neg. reagieren. Zeitraffer der vorhergehenden Woche am. Ende der Bilderreihe. Update 1: Die LCC hat jetzt ne LT Spange. Bei den anderen beiden gings nicht, weil der Wuchs zu kompakt ist. Internodienlänge ist echt kurz. Mal abwarten, wann es diese oder nächste Woche nochmal ne Chance gibt.

She is lagging behind. I've been trying to grow an OG Kush for 3 seasons now. The first shipment I received they were all duds, the company sent out more seeds to replace those but the second shipment never arrived & now from a different breeder this one is a little droopy and sad.

This week I tried to let them go, only did some gnat hunting with the vacuum to keep populations down. Sunshine found a great way to hold the plant down with some thrift store Christmas light fixtures. At the end of this week, I tied the remaining upward stalks down and away. The final bits of training before we can hopefully go towards flowering coming week. I did some foliar feeding also to help the soil dry out a bit, also to fight the gnats. Maybe overdid it a bit with a few yellow points on the leaves. On to flowering!!

It is interesting to see how much the plant has grown since I switched lights 7 days ago. #6& #7 have grow in height while #8 has filled out more Started weaving #6& #7. #8 is still 1" from trellis. I am going to set next trellis by end of week. Turned up RED/IR/UV to 50% Feed plants 9-18-22 Day 8 WOW ,I can not believe the growth since yesterday! The plants easy grew 1"-2" ! Decided to put second trellis in this morning! Feed plants 9-19-22 Day 9 Plant #7 & #8 are close to reaching the second trellis. #6 is just now starting to reach the first trellis. However the hight difference between #6,#7 & #8 is really just 2"-3". Should be able to fill fairly evenly. 9-20-22. Day 10 Feed plants this morning. The plants look green and healthy. The plants are staring to grow white pistons and showing signs of flowering! 9-21-22 Day 11 #7 & #8 have mostly reaches the second trellis #6 is past the first trellis will be interesting to see if it will reach the second All 3 plants are now showing signs of Flower. 9-22-22 💧 #6 - Ethos Cookies #16 & Grandpa's Stash #7 - Ethos Cheezy Puff #8 - Ethos Planet of the Grapes

Nooooot great custom dwc totes doing much better then vivosun buckets

Solo cup challenge continues to press along. Not much change, plants are in veg, growing and healthy. Still a few weeks before the flowers start so I hope to get a bit of size going before it does. Having fun and really like looking at the other entries in this contest. Check out WildeWeed, Butterstotch and BeanswithPork, silky, larimar, fireman

Week 9 is here and we are looking at harvesting! After checking the trichomes of just the top colas, I decided this week I was going to harvest. I am updating this post after I have dried and harvested the plant so do not have much more details. I flushed the plant this week with Flora Kleen along with terpinator and microbes. I cut down the plants and hung them up in the tent to dry using a clothes hanger with clips I got off of Amazon. It took 10 days to dry the bud and my temps and humidity would fluctuate throughout the day and night. I stayed in the mid to low 70s for temperature and humidity was at 50% at first. Then I added a humidifier and had it dry in 60% humidity. Will update the rest in the harvest update.

Welcome growfessors to another episode of growfessor theatre 👽💚 Week 6F begins for the ladies of the 4x4, Green Crack, LSD and Mandarin dreams are rocking! Buds a bulking up, getting sticky, frosty and stanky!! Do-si-dos is a bit behind the other ladies as this strain will take an extra week to finish, but she's also packing on size, frost and stickyness. The Mars-Hydro TSW2000 light is rocking the grow, lighting up the 4x4 really well! Thanks for stopping by growfessors, stay tuned for another episode! 👽🌳💚

Hi all . Here we go again on some Fast buds auto genetics from one of the markets go to for autos. Having been a long term grower of fast buds and some of their tester fast flowering photoperiods too , I expect great things .lol My choices of strain came from hours of deliberating and looking through their extensive auto range. so tempting to hit the "classic" series and go with what I know but being ever curious , that was soon surpassed by some new kids on the block and here we have it. Their rise to the surface was only 3 days total for husks off and opening coty leaves. Now a week on from seeding , they are ready to get busy. They all look as they should and are at present in subdued lighting to get them rooted first. I will be moving them under their own light soon but want them to get comfortable in the soil mix first too. So day 1 is under way and we are in for some beautiful buds no doubt. Thank you Heather @Fastbuds . lets get this going now.

Day 27

Running bunch of clones with the Floraflex microdrip/platforms. Everything from clone, going to be learning the drip system throughout the grow so could go either way. Check out my Instagram to get discounts and info on the system. The platforms are fuckin awesome they make life so much easier whether your hand watering or running the drip system. I have made a list of products to help those who want to try it out get started. A 6 plant platform setup is under $100 (not including pump $61) and 6 plant platform/microdrip is around $150 BEFORE THE DISCOUNT! Please feel free to contact me with any questions and to get the list, my Instagram dms is prob the best way to reach me I check them every couple days @bangdangbuds. There's 2 gorilla grow tents 4x8 and 5x9, 22 plants total, will be running co2 tanks for the first time on the autopilot monitor, trellis for the first time, floraflex base nutrients, product called oxyphos to keep lines clear and will mix in some samples aptus sent me when possible (cant use with oxyphos due to h2o2. Clones for 5x9 are already in final pots, clones for 4x8 are in the incubator.
