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.

Topped the plant in day 29 from seed. Nutrients concentration is dropping 10-20 PPM every 1-2 days. PH is drifting up every day, I have to drop the PH every 1 to 2 days. Light intensity for this week is at 46% ( Fluence Spydr 2i) . After toppling I dropped the light intensity to 36% for a day.

These little girls seem to be moving along as their mother plants did on day 7 in 4" pots of soil, the average clones is 3" to 6" tall, I will try to stretch these girls to 12-14" by next Sat to get ready to transplant to 3gal grow bags as the 4" pots should be root bound by then, will update on next transplant

Hi nice people! I decided to keep the lower tiny branches and this week I defoliate her quite a bit, as lots of bud sites were covered. Overall a great week, buds are developing very well as shown in the pics. As always, stay safe, stay high!

Week 4 for the sugar bombs 😁 another 4 or 5 weeks to go (depending on the phenotype) but we will notice when she's ready in the later flowering, for the rest everything is going quite good in my opinion, for now i must say that its a quite stable strain, no signs of nanners or any other trouble after applied HST which is good news!

Motherplant of this clone didn't give same buds as a clone. Shame I don't have mother plants anymore. I would recommend Durban Poison for everyone, I guess more people should feel this strain. This is my favourite sativa from 2019!

expanded the pot patch to include some companion planting and cover crop this year. Added 2 yards of grow max composted soil mix from the local garden centre. now 18" deep and I will be adding some leaf mould, myco and a super microbe tea to kickstart things. ************UPDATE************* due to the shit weather in Canada this year I have decided to NOT plant an outdoor crop this year, due to late season start and big el nino which means lower than norm temps and lots of rain for us which = issues growing.

Recently, in the tent of my friend, we have prepared plants for the cultivation of guerrilla outdoor. Later, when the plants are already strong, you took them out and organized 5 plantations of several plants. They will grow themselves, with minimal care in the harsh Russian climate. The big danger for us now is not the police, and hunters for someone else's cannabis. Who are the green hunters? These are bastards who do not grow cannabis, but steal other people's plants, they are ready for anything. When I was growing grass from my grandfather in the garden, I sometimes had to protect my plants at night with weapons, then I thought really to get a fighting dog, so that it bit off the uninvited guests eggs. Now my grandfather is dead, and now I grow cannabis as a partisan and at home in a tent. But the memory of those times remained. In Russia, a terrible tradition to steal other people's bushes. Just imagine, you on your back brought water to the plants from the river, looked after and loved your plants, and a greedy hunter of greens cut your plants under the root, without waiting for their flowering. I'm willing to kill these bastards, I sometimes found myself on someone else's guerrilla plantations, but I never took everything, took samples on a couple of branches and prayed for this man when I smoked his weed. Sometimes I hear from people that they steal other people's plants directly from private property from someone else's greenhouse, lulling someone else's dog. When I was drunk, I used to beat these people up really hard, because I had these green-hunter bastards stealing my weed, too. In General, let's hope that our plantations will not be found, and the plants will be able to harvest. I really hope so, but I don't really believe it, because I've had such a bad experience many times, let's see how it will be this time. I hope with your moral support, the police and the green hunters will pass by our plantations.

Solid week this week! Perfected the LST technique I think! All the canopies are comin in even, and they are growing great! I did notice the plant on the right that is under the King Plus 1000, it’s growing a little shorter and stalkier than its sisters. I tried to find a Mars Hydro reflector 48 to fit into the spot the king is in. I’m trying to match the reflector 144 I have in place, but I was unable to find one ( they don’t make them anymore). Well last night I was able to find one so this tent will be running perfect just in time for flower! Going to keep vegging them, and taking care of my babies! Not too sure how much room I have left to keep vegging, might switch over to flower on week 6 we shall see! Stay growing my friends!

day 0 - gave this seed a dark place in my room to germinate and also used a little Ph down to get from 7,5 down to 6. 230PPM after about 17 hours of soaking in the glass i gave the seed into a jiffy. day 1 - because i had still 2 more of those seeds i think its better to just use them now and germinate them all together and then choose the strongest for myself. thats why we are at day 1. i just need one of them to germinate right now and the seeds are already 3 years old. i think one or maybe even 2 might not germinate because i just stored them in room temperature. we will see! day 5 - the seed wich has beed touching water 22 hours early has now shown his first sings of life above the soil, so i am trusting into the other 2 that they might also still follow so i can share a plant :) day 6 - she has a sister! she has grown 2cm+ and the seed has been stuck in the jiffy so everything perfect for the first one. day 7 - the seedling on the right is now also not growing only inside the soil anymore. the third seed was sadly a fail but i am happy with 2/3 after wrong storage.

Hi Growmies So here we have it , the end is nigh !. After and interesting 99 Days from seed and 70 days in their flowering phase of an expected 63. It is not unusual to pass the stated times and even early harvest on occasions so I am not hung up about the timing and is another reason that I use the trichromes as a guide to the right time to pull them. The #1 has definitely reached her harvest window now with some Amber tricks now being visible on checking. She looks so sweet now and I did begin to trim her up a little before I started the update pics. I do plan on using the bowl trimmer for speed this run and will video how it goes for the next update. I hate trim-jail so will use the spinner to help. Some of the buds look a bit small low down and I expect drying will shrink them to a Nug but all adds to final yield. I am not too stoked about the overall bud sizes and suspect the products did have an effect on that outcome for me but tje quality and number are its saving grace . The #2 Lady is looking chunkier than her sister although not as big in footprint. Her trichromes are beginning to cloud now so I expect at least another week before her harvest is due #3 is the most impressive for looks and appeal for sure. , she is covered in medium sized colas amd has some of the purpled leaves that the strain is known for. She is also as frosty as hell to highlight her even more. Like #2 she needs the ripening time now so I expect next update to be the final before harvest results. It has been a simple grow with no real dramas to contend with. Thanks for riding along with me. Be well.

New week starts. 🌞05.04 Today I warered my plants with 'GHE First true leaves'(1/1/1) solution and gave them full dose of Fulvic acid ('Diamond nectar'). Also, I spraiyed them with clean water. Next spraying will go with a 'Sea Weed' micsture. I'll give them new nutrients slowly, step by step. Looks nice, I'm waiting for the end of a week to transplant them into the bigger pots. 🌞06.04 It's a 'rest' day. Nothing, except spraying with a frash clean water ph6.3. I'll start to spray leaves with the 'SeaWeed' solution after the clean water watering (two days from now). 🌞07.04 Nothing. 🌞08.04 I made defoliation of 'Critical' (4 leaves only), sprayed all my flowers with 'SeaWeed' solution and watered three of them with clean water with 'GHE Mineral Magic' powder. 'Critical's soil is too wet still, so it didn't get water today. All four of my girls got LST. Upd: I made huuuuge defoliation on evening. Now all eight brunches on each plant starts to take its form. It's pretty well done (look on the last photo taken). 🌞09.04 Nothing today. 🌞10.04 'Sea Weed' spraying only. I'm waiting for tomorrow morning to transplant my babies and to make final LST (crone forming). 🌞11.04 I finally made the transplantation today. My girls roots has already come from the pots bottom. 'Canna terra' earth wasn't enough, so I made 20 liters of my own (soil+perlite). They all looks nice and I think, we'll change the light schedule to 12/12 for about two weeks. Watered them with 'GHE Pro Roots' solution and spraiyed with clean water. It was a good day. _________ Week ends.

The plants stopped growing in height and are now in FULL FLOWERING mode. Every day more and more flower clusters appear and start to build colas at the sidebranches now. The trichome production is also in full swing, the plants get stickier every day and smell DELICIOUS. The Barbarian (=AK-47 x Barbara Bud) plants have a sweet sandelwood-smell like the AK-47 but also with peach undertones from the Barbara Bud in it. I LOVE THE AROMA!

Die Woche ist im großen und ganzen sehr gut geloffen. Sie hatte nochmal einen deutlichen Schub gemacht und nach Anzeichen der Blüte gab ich ihr das erste mal mein selbst gemachten Full Spectrum Bloom Ferment (angelehnt an knf aber deutlich verändert mit vielen tropical ingredients🙃💚)worauf sie super reagiert hat ,sie zeigt schon noch drei Tagen eine deutlich satteres grün. Dann nahm ich als vorsichts Maßnahme die Blütenstände die am nähesten am hauptspamm waren weg um einen besseren Air flow zu bekommen und dann gab es nochmal lecker essen (Bloom ferment )💚🙃 Was meint ihr ? Danke fürs rein schauen Happy grow💚

AVT is coming along nicely. Especially considering the abuse I put her through a few weeks ago. Buds are developing nicely and starting to get frosty 😃. I kind of dig the bonsai'ish shape she has near the top due to my over HST'ing. There will be no more abuse to this girl, only some defoliation as needed. AVT is front-left in the group pics.
