-Was excited to see roots shoot out basket during the beginning of the week. Then some major root growth throughout the week. -Noticed some brownish coloring on roots, thought root rot or nutrient sludge? Found out, through advanced nutrients, organic nutrients will leave a brown tinge. -pH finally where it should be. Still using GH pH testing kit to measure so no exact number. Based on their chart, yellow 6.0 -Leaves look a lighter green then I'm thinking it should be. Will add a little more nutrients during next water change in couple days. -Humidity still low! Running a temporary humidifier I already had outside closet door. Brought up humidity by 15%, but still only measuring 35% at it's highest. -Started playing music for plant about 30min/day, also talk to it a few times a day. Anyone else do this? -Disappointed in sludge build up, and mild/strong fish smell during first half of the week after water change as AN claims otherwise for this nutrient. Growth looks great besides that. -Lots of growth this 2nd week, very exciting to see, both above and below deck.

I soaked my seeds for 24 hours in a mixture of 6.3 ph water, BioAg Ful-a power & Aloe Vera. i then inoculated the soil with the mixture of all the nutrients I listed above then placed the seeds 1/4” down into the soil. I then sprayed the top with my pump sprayer & put them under a humidity dome. 75 F degrees & 89% humidity.

Week 4: We are officially one month into our grow! things have been going pretty smooth so far and that’s exciting!! Yesterday we picked up our Gaia Green 4-4-4, repotted one watermelon zkittles into 5gal, and we we watered both Sunday and yesterday (oops). With that and the topping done, we plan to give them the week to recover and then start LST and feeding. You’ll notice a large number of plants were moved outside… those were all auto seeds that we got for free from Seedsman and Perry’s Magic Beans (Northern Lights, Critical + 2.0, M+M, and High C) shout out to them!! In a week or so the clones will be moved out and we will have our final 4 in the tent.

Welcome growfessors to another episode of growfessor theatre! 👽🌳💚 Tonight from the 4x4 the ladies move into week 7 and they get a change in nutrients. Out with Big Bud coco & sensizym, in with Overdrive. Removed dead & dying leaves from each lady, added a support stake in Mandarin dreams & LSD, they was leaning hard! Thanks for stopping by growfessors 👽🌳💚

The Mandarin Squeeze sisters are growing great. Loads of frost on the Cola sites. They are looking super healthy and promising at this point. I am a little heavy on nitrogen if Anything was to be changed. She is bulking and probably has a good smell going. I have a cold and can't smell right now. Nothing much to report. 🤞🏻she bulks good. Thank you Terpyz Mutant Genetics, and Spider Farmer. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱❄️🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇.

This is my very first indoor grow. I decided to gro six autos from fast buds. Paper towel for 24 hours till I saw a tap root went straight to growing medium. I’m doing this first run with pre amend fox farm. One of each plant I’m ocean Forrest and one of each in coco loco. All pots have center of seed starter to prevent burning my seedling. I’m 3 days since I put the seeds in the paper towel and the seedlings are just now starting to break through the soil.

The week ain’t over yet but so far so good. What i’ve done: •Germinated the seed in a glass of water •Replanted it from a 2.7 liter pot to a 6 liter bucket with drilled holes at the bottom. ———————————————————————— What i’ll do the coming days: •Give the plant a 150w led light •Give the plant 18/6 light instead of 24 hours

Another week for this SOG of Auto's from our friends fastbuds, at the moment they are doing great, i do notice that some genetics required less food than others (they all got the same amount but some showed signs of N toxicity last weeks) At the moment we noticed the stretch and we needed to put the lamp higher, we are growing with a TS1000 at the moment and things are looking good 😊

I would like to reveg, for next round or just pop new. I have plans to make an ultimate strain. I want to chop in 7 days but I made some seeds. Xmas try would be nice after 14 day dry. everything is precalculated pushing to finish faster

During this week, in addition to gnats and hydrophobic soil, I faced high humidity at night and poor ventilation inside the grow tent. I felt this delayed the development of the sprouts. I used only pure water for watering, and even then, I did it in small volumes (50 to 100ml) several times to combat poor nutrient absorption on top of the pot due to the hydrophobic soil. I also applied Bacillus to control the gnats in the larval stage. I noticed that my traps had fewer each day, but it's difficult to completely eliminate these little demons.

Our sweet lady survived a week of raind and intense wind, the golden rope you see was helping the buds to stay still and to help save branches from breaking. The lady is super sugary and sticky right now, but the buds seem like they are not gonna thicken more than that. This plant has been stressed multiple times during her lifetime, from broken branches to light overdose, she has been kept away from direct sunlight since than, so this is the cause we attribute to this slower growth. Our biggest doubt is about harvest time. The buds do not seem big at all, but they look very orange and the breed's harvest is said to be in mid October, so we should start flushing! While I think we should wait untill the last week of the month, F. says i's almost time for drying. 😵😲 Looking at some pics of last year's harvest I am afraid this lady is not going to produce as much as we tought, maybe because this is our first experience with so many nutrients. Hope someone can help about harvest and buds overall look 😬😬

Important: Key Rules for my Setup Feed every watering (1–2 L) → safer with autos and small volumes. Check runoff ppm every 2–3 weeks → if 250–300 ppm higher than input, do a light flush (3-4L). Plain water reset → once every 2–3 weeks during feeding phase. Defoliation → light only (2–3 leaves every few days if shading colas). Light height → keep ~55 cm from canopy with two SF1000D to avoid more light stress and to spread even light distribution. Notes: Remove only occasional fan leaves shading bud sites. Keep light height at least 50 cm to prevent further light stress. Maintain RH ~45–55% and 20-26C for this week. (Currently more like 50-55%) UPDATE: FEEDOMG THEM MORE THAN I HAVE EVEN FED AUTFLOWERS. But I was a little behind from the switch from Veg to Bloom. Looks like its stabilized now though. Last Week of VERY light defoliaten and from now it will be 1ml/L Green Sensation. Will keep Grow for a bit, so they dont loose more green. PPFD/DLI: Photo attached to show my PPFD in my tent. (Made wiith ChatGPT) "At 55 cm, your canopy is still getting: ~700–800 µmol/m²/s in the middle ~500–600 µmol/m²/s in the corners That’s well within the ideal flowering PPFD range (600–900), and because you run a 20h cycle, the DLI is already plenty high (≈ 35–40 mol/m²/day)." I have given them more nutrients since they all are super hungry. I think I should have stayed with higher doses of N for longer. Now it’s too risky to overcompensate. I don’t want nitrogen in the end of flowering. Or as little as possible without hurting potentials. Which wasn’t successful this time trying a new line of nutrients.
