I'd like to title this Diary entry Screw You Advanced Nutrients. 7th week done.. 3 weeksish left on the Lsd-25 and 4 weeksish on the purple Lemonade.. Gonna be some chunky mothers. Purple coming up everywhere, pretty colours. Oh yes we are very pleased so end of 7th week for these ladies and stretching has stopped thank goodness and we are now into bud building/mass building. The two lsd-25 plants definitely went into full flower "mode" sooner. The Colorful lady seems to have benn mass building all week. Probably gonna have different harvest windows on these ladies. Was hoping for same time but it's okay we are creative and will figure a way ahead. There is some CO2 being fed in the tent. With a smaller co2 bucket. We will be trying out a new one for us and it is a product called dense from green planet. We will using dense when the regular reservoir change is suppose to happen. Before we feed only Dense we will be prepping the ladies with an extra feeding of GP3 micro. Buffering the leaves and prepping the uptake for the feeding. So with dense there will be only a feed of Dense with UC roots and ph down. The formula of dense is 0-0-62 so this is a very concentrated Potash supplement. We will be using 1/2 recommended doses as per our system and it's requirements. This will run for 4-5 days and significantly increase the Amount of Potash in the Plant fear not.. The next 2-3 days will run with just phed water then onto P-k spiking with Bloom Booster alone. At this stage Massive Bloom formulation would be great as well but we wanna cut out our nitros while still have some micros.. So we will feed smaller amounts of GP3 Micro with Powdered bloom booster, rezin and liquid weight. Right up until we do a 3 day flush before harvest. Nutrients and Light is the idea so we will see turn outs and everything. If you are wondering what is the difference between the plants and the lady on the left looks so burnt. Left side only fed Flora Series w/ Advanced Nutrients supplements the plants on the right side is fed only Flora Series with Green planet supplements. The nutrient formulas provided in this diary are for right plants only. We can not express the amount of disgust we feel towards Advanced Nutrients as we spent good money on their product and feel genuinely ripped off. The words smelly disgusting mess describe what happened when we added big bud to left side. Bottle smells fine but the Formula is obviously way off as we did not have issues like this when using it the first dozen or so times. We will be using chemical nutrients and powders for life now and will not use Advanced Nutrients again or recommend it for anyone. The Organic Big Bud Formula is no good for hydroponic growing and they obviously rushed it to market to make money..... We really wanted to finish with Advanced Nutrients being the supplement on the left side but we can not. The product itself has basically made it impossible to continue confidently using any Advanced Nutrients labeled as both Organic and Safe for hydroponics. The proof is in the pudding and so glad and happy really now that we are using Green Planet and continue on this trend of cleaner greener growing and a more intelligent approach. On a further note just to go a bit further Bud Candy for example contains sugars that are basically present in Black Molasses. So what they've basically done is filtered and bleached Black Molasses and watered it down and are selling it to us at around 40 bucks a litre. Bunch of crooks Screw you Advanced Nutrients.

She’s in pre flower stage at week 4- the cold, windy, hot, and everything in between has probably forced her a bit early- Raining the past few days and overcast. Looks nice though and she shot up in height!

Report Tag 22 : Willkommen in der dritten Woche 🌿 Es ist der 15 Tag nach Bildung der ersten zackigen Blätter 🌿 Da ich die Tage erst mit einer Nährlösung gegossen habe, bleiben die Gartenwerkzeuge heute alle an ihrem Platz. Höhe der Pflanzen : Purple Haze Auto 11,5 cm Frostbanger Auto 12,5 cm Z-UP 13 cm Report Tag 23 : 🌿16🌿 Heute kam der UPS Wagen und hat mir neue Souvenirs gebracht. Flotte Knoppen (ruhrpottisch für FastBuds) selbstverständlich und dabei waren auch Sticker der drei Strains. Natürlich dürfen die Sticker in dem Grow Report nicht fehlen 😃 Auch heute gibt es nichts zu tun, außer das Wetter draußen zu genießen ☀️ Die Mädels sind nun : Purple Haze Auto 12,5 cm Frostbanger Auto 13 cm Z-UP Auto 13 cm Report Tag 24 : Es ist Wachstumstag Nummer 17 🌿 Heute ist nichts mit den Pflanzen geplant. Tägliches Update über die Höhe der Pflanzen gibt es trotzdem : Frostbanger Auto 14 cm Purple Haze Auto 13,5 cm Z-UP Auto 14 cm Report Tag 25 : 18.Wachstumstag 🌿 Alle Pflanzen sind wieder gleich groß. Z-UP Auto 14,5 cm Frostbanger Auto 14,5 cm Purple Haze Auto 14,5 cm Melde mich morgen mit einem ausführlichen Bericht morgen steht einiges an. Report Tag 26 : Seid gegrüßt zu Wachstumstag 19 🌿 Heute war ein aufregender Tag und ich habe mich tatsächlich getraut meine erste Autoflower zu toppen. Es war ein langes hin und her ob, wann und welche Pflanze ich toppen soll. Dass ich eine Pflanze toppen werde, davon haben mich Sebastian und Bernie von FastBuds mich nach ihren professionellen Antworten in ihren letzten deutschen Livestream überzeugt. Meine erste Wahl wäre die Z-UP Auto gewesen, da ich davon noch einen weiteren Samen habe. Doch als ich heute das Zelt öffnete und sie mir anschaute entdeckte ich schon die ersten weißen Haare an der Z-UP Auto und somit ist es mir dann doch zu riskant. Die Purple Haze Auto wird nicht getoppt da sie eh schon einen kurzen Lebenszyklus hat und ich auf ein frohes Farbenspiel hoffe. Somit blieb mir nur noch die Frostbanger Auto und Schnipp, Schnapp der Kopf ist ab ✂️🌿 Jede Pflanze wurde mit 1,5 Liter Nährstofflösung gegossen. ( 1,5 Liter Chlorfreies Wasser + 1,5 g Bactrex + 3 ml Orgatrex + 2ml Bio PK 5-8 ) Zu guter Letzt wurden alle drei Damen noch mit 5 ml / Liter Biotabs Boom Boom Spray eingesprüht. Die Größe aller Pflanzen beträgt 15 cm Frostbanger Auto 15 cm Purple Haze Auto 15 cm Z-UP Auto 15 cm Bis morgen 👋🏼 Report Tag 27 : Halli, Hallo ! Wachstumstag 20 🌿 Zuallererst die Frostbanger Auto hat das Topping gut überstanden und zeigt keine Anzeichen von Stress 🙏🏼 Das war auch das wichtigste was zu berichten gibt. Alle drei wachsen fröhlich vor sich hin und werden mit jedem Tag etwas schöner 💚 Frostbanger Auto 15 cm Purple Haze Auto 15,5 cm Z-UP Auto 15,5 cm Schönen Sonntag euch allen 👋🏼 Report Tag 28 : Ich wünsche euch einen schönen Wochenstart! Es ist der 21. Wachstumstag 🌿 Die Größen der einzelnen Pflanzen : Z-UP Auto 16 cm Frostbanger Auto 16 cm Purple Haze Auto 16 cm Hoffe ihr seit alle zufrieden mit euren Gärten ! Bis nächste Woche 🌿 Ich hoffe es gefällt, euch was ihr zu sehen und lesen meinerseits bekommt. Ich bin dankbar für jedes Kommentar, sei es eine Anregung, eine Kritik, oder eine Frage.

9/29/2022 - 49 days since my little girl sprouted from seeds🌱 The third week of flowering of my Bruce Lemon Diesel 🍋⛽🌻 Nutrients: Jungle Indabox - I serve the same as last week Advanced Nutrientiens - Bud Candy - carbohydrates for my plants 🍭🍭 Bud Stimulators 🌼🌼🌼: Jungle Indabox Environ X Advanced Nutrientiens - Big Bud remains unchanged I no longer serve Bud Ignitor ATAMI - ATA CALMAG - When growing under LED lights it is recommended to use Calmag and Atami is an excellent brand Plants tolerate nutrients well, sometimes a small spot appears on the leaves, but this is not a nutrient burn Training: LST - Just a little training, I tied some twigs to the edge of the flower pot with string so that they don't shine on each other 🌞🌞 Defoliation: I mainly remove large leaves so they don't shade the flowers and I also cut off the lower leaves. The plant will thus have more power to put energy into the buds 🍃🌸🌸 General: The branches of the plant grow symmetrically, it has many blooms, the stems are strong and healthy, the leaves correspond to the age and stage of the plant, it responds well to nutrients 🌾🌾 Light: Really awesome Mars Hydro TS 1000 sponsor light 💡💡 Smell: The girls really smell, this one can smell sweetly sweet, slightly fruity, slightly diesel in the distance 🍇⛽🍬 Thank you for your opinions, smile and fun with my diary, you can follow me on Twitter 🐦: @ targona666 See you soon 😍

Organization was the word for the week. I organized the leaves on Daphni by cutting some old fan leaves and low level leaves. I organized my CO2 injection procedure. CO2 tank to REGULATOR thru SOLENOID connected to TIMER every two hours with lights on. I also organized the power strip in the back with cable ties and sleeves. Finally I had to organize my way out of a FUBAR situation when the oxigenating device in the RainForest 66 Reservoir stopped working. I will have some words to say to Katie in customer service for sure. I got a standard oxiginator and a disk shaped air stone and use that now to keep the water healthy. Daphni is staring to bud more on the lower nodes and the progress so far looks good. Knock on wood. Since i turn the exhaust fan off when CO2 is injected i dont really need the heater so I took it out. Have a great week.

I am happy with the outcome of this grow. This was my first time growing autoflowers and ILGM genetics. Total wet weight was 1301 grams Total dry weight 8.5 oz These plants are very hardy and grow tall very quickly with the tallest plant reaching 4 ft tall. Each plant grew very different bud structures which resulted in some very dense and very fluffy buds. If you are looking for a very uniform growing plant with dense buds you may need to look for another strain. The smell from these buds are strong and amazing. I would describe the smell as fruity glue with rubber. I am overall very pleased with how this grow went and I cant wait to grow some more!

2018-04-10 Day 1 I gave the girls water and nutrients yesterday so nothing to drink today. Turned them 90 degrees today, to give my girls as much lightexposure as possible. The flowers get bigger and bigger for each day, Overall the ladies look really good, the colors are very nice, they look healthy. Nr1 is very bushy, and I am curious of what she will become since she had some serious issues right after germination. 😁 Crazy Cookies nr 1 is 69 cm Crazy Cookies nr 2 is 56 cm Added new videos of the girls, go ahead and check them out 😎 2018-04-11 Nothing new to report, the girls are doing great. Turned them 90 degrees, just like every other day, I believe the exposure of light from different directions will increase the yield in the end, so it's definetly worth the effort. Added a video of what I believe heaven looks like 😇 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Strain information: The word synergy is a business term first quoted in the early eighties to describe mutual enhancement through interaction or cooperation, where the end result gained is greater than the sum of the parts used. What do synergy and the Crazy Cookies cannabis strain have to do with each other you may well ask? The parents of the forthrightly indica Crazy Cookies are marijuana royalty. OG Kush and Girl Scout Cookies. These strains of contemporary legend have been combined to cerebrum shattering effect. The cured flowers deliver a mouth-watering and couchlocking 24% THC. The initial delectable spacey upbeat onrush compliments of the Durban Poison coursing through the genes of the Cookies soon becomes a lush and rich, inescapably delicious body flux. There should be a picture of a Crazy Cookie nugget in the dictionary next to the word synergy. Crossing the OG back into the Cookies has amplified the psychoactive effects of the notorious lineage of both parents. This is an indica with a capital I. As a breeder it would be fair to assume that injecting more OG into the Cookies would result in an OG-dominant Cookie, or even close to a pure OG, but something else has happened. Some long dormant genetic switch has been flipped and a standalone indica has emerged whose spicy notes and earthy tones, hints of grape and horny pheromone are an absolute pleasure. Paying this breed some careful attention as it grows will reward you substantially, indoors or out. Typical hybrid vigour is shown throughout each grow phase. Stout plants to 80cm can be expected indoors and muscular examples with fluted stalks growing to two metres can be easily achieved outdoors. Good bracing is necessary as the flowers mature. With more than 500g at harvest per robust plant, colas can easily snap and twist branches. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Info: Unfortunately, I had to find out that my account is used for fake pages in social media. I am only active here on growdiaries. I am not on facebook instagram twitter etc All accounts except this one are fake. Harvest day 71 since the time change to 12/12 hrs. Hey guys :-) Finally the time has come . The lady was harvested. After the trichomes have been checked (70% milky 30% amber) as always, it was left in complete darkness for 48 hours before it was neatly trimmed by hand. After trimming, she was put back in the drying tent on nets. There they are allowed to dry for the next 8-12 days at 62% humidity before they are put into the jar to ferment with 62% boveda packs. After about 4-6 weeks in the jar I will swap the 62% boveda pack for a 58% boveda pack where it can be ready for another 4-6 weeks to enjoy :-). As always, the remains of the leaves are used to make Ice o Lator and oil. Of course, as always, there is a final update during the fermentation process. Until then, I wish you all a lot of fun with this update. Stay healthy 🙏🏻 and let it grow 👍. You can buy this Strain at : https://www.exoticseed.eu/ Type: Herz Og ☝️🏼 Genetics: Larry OG X Kosher Kush Indica 60 % / Sativa 40 % 👍 Vega lamp: 2 x Todogrow Led Quantum Board 100 W 💡 Bloom Lamp : 2 x Todogrow Led Cxb 3590 COB 3500 K 205W 💡💡☝️🏼 Soil : Canna Coco Professional + ☝️🏼 Fertilizer: Green House Powder Feeding ☝️🏼🌱 Water: Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC. Add Cal / Mag to 0.4 Ec Ph with Organic Ph - to 5.5 - 5.8 .

12/13- Here we go...Week 6 of flower and shit's gonna be happening from here on out to harvest! Now it's more important than ever to make sure that everything is on point, and I mean EVERYTHING: Temp's/RH/co2/VPD/Water and Nutrients. All is critical at this stage as the girls are pouring everything they have into their flowers and anything that upsets them will have a direct negative affect on them. They were fed today .75g de-chlorinated water with a starting ppm of 100 with a 0.2 EC. To the water was added Fox Farms Nutrients (Big Bloom/Tiger Bloom/Bembe/ChaChing) to give a final solution strength of 1700ppm's 3.4 EC @ 74deg. with a final ph of 6.2. They get watered with a 2g pump sprayer with a hose and wand attached from which I remove the spray head so that it gives a steady stream. It comes in handy, and I water them right at the main trunk and let the moisture soak up and outward through the entire pot. The Meringue is continuing to turn beautiful shades of reds and pinks and the #2 White Widow pheno is expressing some pink tips on some of the sugar leaves on her flowers. The Seedsman Peyote WiFi is stacking like hell and some of her shade leaves have turned yellow as she uses up nutrients in them. After todays heavy feed we'll see how she responds in the next day or so. The Poochie Love's are smokin' hot! Man I LOVE this strain, what a couple of beauties, vigorous and tolerant of just about anything you can throw at them. 12/15- Took down the trellis net today...I was using the braided nylon type, as it was what I had, and couldn't stand seeing the fucking fibers from it sticking to all of the 'fruits' of my labor and love so down it came!😡 It was, of course, a royal PITA to remove it trying to avoid further deposits of fibers from it dragging over the plants...so happy it's gone! All the girls appear to share my joy as they are looking sexy as hell!😍 They're getting watered daily now with 3/4g de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.2-6.5 @ 72-74 deg. With the Dutch Passion Meringue and the Peyote WiFi from Seedsman seeds are the two thirstiest of the bunch and always seem to be thirsty and aren't shy about letting you know! Today all that was added was Fox Farms Boomerang (final ph of 6.2 @ 74 deg. 500ppm / 1.0 EC) to help with the stress they encountered during the trellis removal. All of the girls colas are stacking like crazy and getting huge with heavy trichome production, especially on the Dutch Passion Meringue and Whit Widow, as well as the Archive Seed Poochie Love's. 12/17- Today was feed day, they all drank up 3/4g de-chlorinated water (the Meringue and Peyote WiFi got 1g each) with Fox Farms nutrients added (Big Bloom/Tiger Bloom/Bembe/ChaChing) to reach a final solution strength of 1400ppm's 2.8 EC at a 6.3 ph that was adjusted up using baking soda. Day temp's are maintaining a range of 78-82 degrees and night temp's I've dropped to 64-67 degrees for the final 3-4 weeks of flower to get that beautiful 'fall fade'. I've had to stake up the branches on the Peyote WiFi and White Widow #1 as their colas are so freakishly large they're bending the branches completely over (no...I don't miss the trellis net!😠) and actually split one on the White Widow that I had to administer some First Aid to (don't worry...she'll be just fine!). The variety of aromas coming off my girls is amazing and goes from piney to gas, to sweet/fruity...just mouth watering. I wish you could smell them, I'm sure you'd smile a big toothy grin!😁 12/19- I know I said it before...but I really dislike trellis nets! 😆 So as an added PITA after removing it, the stalks on the Meringue, Peyote WiFi and White Widow #1 are too weak to support the weight of the massive cola's they're sporting. The netting supported the branches and as a result they had no need to stiffen up the way a plant without support would do. I went ahead and staked all three to give the stalks/cola's support. Unfortunately when I was working on the Meringue one of her stalks coming off the very bottom of the main stalk broke off clean at the main trunk.😖 Never accepting defeat easily, I cut about 4" off the stalk, jammed it in some Clonex Gel and stuck it in a 1g pot with coco/perlite, then watered it in thoroughly. Eight hours later its leaves are still not drooping so I'll keep my fingers crossed and see what it looks like tomorrow. Pisses me off to have it happen as there's probably close to 1/2 oz. of flower on it...oh well, not the first branch I've broken, and more than likely wont be the last!😎 Straight de-chlorinated water today, .75g each with 5ml/g Botanicare CalMag+ added then ph'd to 6.3 @ 74 degrees F. They are looking like Rock Stars and are only going to get better from here on out...hang on!
