It's just starting to form flowers, but it's looking like it's forming a ton of them. I'll probably go through and defoliate this afternoon. One of the plants has for sure overshadowed the other, but I think that's okay. I don't think I had enough room in the 3x3 for two plants the same size. I'm happy with this water/worm/frass only run.

the girl went out into nature, although the weather is not very suitable for them yet, but I think she will manage perfectly :) I will visit them once a week :).

So this week I have started to flush the girls as its been 10 weeks now so after another 2 week of flush that's 12 weeks surely they have to be ready but the hairs are still pointing straight out and are still white which is abit weird as this strain is supposed to be a 8 week strain 🤔, Happy Times Happy Growing 😁 🌿

I found out i made a big mistake at the beginning, i didnt wash the Coco twice and that resulted in dirty Coco and a ph way too high, the way I fixed it was I Watered with 2.5 L water mixed with 1/4 strength fertilizer, water half the amount wait 3-5 minutes then give the rest, on all of them. I also forgot to mention i have started to give 0.5 ml/ calmag, since the coco take some of it because its inert, you need to give more than in soil. The next day i could See they were taking in the fertilizers and are growing Happy again. I have done more lst, i used gardening wire each 20 cm long, form them like i do The cbd ( crack ) have grown happy all the way through, she is the one I have been most excited about, its for freinds and family, who can't tolerate thc but I think this 1:1 balance, can help them 🙏 @Fast_Buds i hope you guys make a foto of one like this, These medical strains are very important to keep alive. A thing to know about clay pepples is, you need to put them in water that have a ph of 6.0 otherwise they will take the ph level way too much up, trust in your measurement devices more than the soil/coco company saying what the ph Is. PL is coming back and have started to grow again. happy growing and remember it's 420 somewhere ✌️💚

7.5.25: I retied down the branches on RQS Northern Lights auto. I had to clean the tent, so the opportunity had to be taken, I hope not to have to move them again. I ended up snapping a small branch off another plant 😖 She is looking so big out of the tent, and even bigger than I thought! Now, having readjustmed, the fabric ties, and she is looking even larger still. This really is an absolute giant of a plant! 😱 I really am struggling to get them all in, I think the 8 gallon pots were a definite factor in that. They certainly are great for getting big plants, but be prepared if you have a small space. She's still stretching and not really focusing on her bud development in these mid flowering weeks. I think we will be in for a long haul with this lady. I hope she doesn't get too much bigger. I watered some bloom nutes after I top dressed, with Mega Crop Part A by Greenleaf Nutrients. I watered 3.2 litres PPM:745 PH:6.0. This time, I'm going to keep the top dressing moist. So as not to kill all the beneficial microbes. Other than that, I will wait until the pots are light again. Overall, she is doing great, I wish she had stretched a little more evenly to catch up in height. I just can't even out the canopy anymore. I'll leave it and hope she'll sort herself out 😅 I'm very excited to see what happens next! This is going to be crazy whatever happens! 😍😋 8.4.25: Northern lights had dried out significantly, so I watered with 2 litres of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4. Containing per litre: ♡ 1/4 tsp of Greenleaf nutrients Sea K(elp). PPM: 800 PH: 6.4 I don't want the top dress to dry out too much, and the plants are starting to drink much more. 9.5.25: It's a necessity to keep the soil moist. That means I need to water more often now. Today I watered with 1.5 litres of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4 which contained: ♡ 1/5 tsp of Sea K(elp). By Greenleaf nutrients ♡ 1/4 tsp Ecothrive Biosys. PPM: 564 PH: 6.4 12.5.25: Northern Lights has been srayed with the foliar spray and all symptoms have resolved. Due to having a few leaves burnt with that, I've decided to use the Ecothrive Trace in the water instead. It left some orange spots of damaged leaves. Thanks for checking out my diary and hanging out 😊💚🙌🍃✌️

Beautiful lady! Idk what day she went to. She finished up right as we came home from vacation so I just had to handle her the best I could before her ripening too far. I’m so happy with her she smells Devine! So sweet like candy and straight gas! So sticky took forever to trim for trim jail. I’m so so happy with her!!!!

Final weeks..

The ladies hitting week 5 and from now it'll be a pleasure to watch them 😁😁😁. Can't wait to get home from work and take care of my babies 😂😂😂😂. Damn it feels good to be a gardner 🌲👆🏼

Week 8

Here goes first flowering week. Black cream auto with LST started her way to turn purple too, but the biggest black cream auto plant and mutant one are still green. I think they look great !

Oct 19: warm October continues and this plant will be harvested in a few days. Three days with snow starting 3 days from now so that’s it for the season. Drilled a couple of holes in the trunk. Idea is to stress the plant to spur trichome production. Did this before and not entirely sure it helps, but why not? Oct 20: these buds are getting stinkier and frostier just in time for the season here to end. Smell was quite noticeable this morning so I’ve bumped it up to Strong. All the buds are looking fairly frosty too so this Gelato is finishing strong. 👍👍 Oct 21: harvest day because in two days, Monday, it will be below zero all day and likely snow. Oh well, a longer than expected season allowed this gelato to finish fairly well. Trichomes are still white, and actually I rarely see amber trikes on my plants and I think that’s due the weak sunlight here in the fall. My best option here is to aim to harvest by the end of September. This plant was not billed as being fast flowering so I expected it to be a bit slow, plus it is a sativa pheno, so I feel lucky that it has finished as well as it did. The weather here was definitely good for cannabis this year with the only real hassle being wildfire smoke.

Not much to say, I’m trying to get my tent to the right temp and humidity, checking for the best settings and making sure everything is ready.

Howdy it is day 63 and in 2 days it is time to harvest. Since 2 weeks i feed clear Walter only. They get 16 hours darkness before harvest. All the plants are really🔥 My favourites are still 3G and Wedding Gelato. The smell and Look is crazy. You will see i guess Also North Thunderfuck and Hulkberry is good looking. The weight of North Thunderfuck for the dice is insane. I wish everyone a nice Day and good time. Stay safe 💚

Didn't really give these 2 the attention they needed this week and they dried up a tiny little bit. Also they stretched quite a bit compared to the non auto ones. Time to start with some LST, right at the limit as the core is quite thick already, but still bendy enough. First pistils have started to come out.

The super skunk has been giving a dry out and flush. She will need another dry out and flush before I return to her feeding. There’s signs of recovery as the roughly brittle leaves are returning back to soft and smooth. The leaves are yellow and the stem and lateral branches are red bull are restoring back to pale green. Close monitoring will continue until she gets back to good health. She has grown 4cm this week standing at 38cm tall

A really fun grow comes to an end, the result is more than impressive from this strain. I grew a few critical cross autos in hydro, they all have their typical grow strength, especially at the beginning of flower but this one stood out. Started "normal" and then just didn't want to stop anymore and that with a very basic feeding regime. This strain can take stress and nutrients, what you get in return is some purple flowers that smell so amazing that you ask yourself why you are not only growing this strain :P I made some ice water hash from it and it was such a beautiful smoke. The potency is quite impressive in this one, it seems a lot of growers are to focused on THC levels but terpines decide where your high goes, this high is great and compared to other strains with a much higher THC numbers the purple queen auto can easily compete. The smell and flavor is super floral and fruity.
