Poor girly! Her little sibling turned out to be a bro (the mini Cooper one) - he dead now On the bright side due to the season change, this one has begun to flower This one worry since I haven’t amended the soil nor do I plan to :) Hopefully, we can get a nice nug on her. Since this girl was living outside for a bit, she’s picked up a couple critters and so I won’t be putting her in the photography room

Day 65. Boy oh boy how i am happy, that i don't give a f@ck about this harvest ... I have golden rule - don't grow inside during summer ! And thats why ... Last days temps was reaching 34-36 inside !!! Humidity everywhere and heat stress pushed nitrogen excess even further, some top buds will be all in foxtails with slim shitty , leafy buds around ... Was terrible heat wave and i couldn't hold it, some strains took it way easier, but that one with unlove to N - is a sad picture .... So now i don't know what to do, feed them or not .... Its like Hamlets grow, constant to be or not to be questions around ... P.S. have to admit, that i was stupid enough and gave them lite worm castings tea, 180 ppm only, but i guess it had loads of N inside, my normal outdoor plants loved it, so i thought it should be good for my girls aswell ... WRONG ;))) Now i have like 8 overdosed with N plants, which are bigger than average and i have the rest, which would love more food, cal mag especially, and proper PK boost ... Totally lost, how stupid is to put random strains in one pot, very very very stupid ... More stupid is to play with sick plants , they where almost recovered from N toxicity .. Me and my desire to do it a bit better ... ;)))) Update 2 : i found what is wrong, those plants looked like reveging more, than heat and N excess , and .... when i was lifting lights up, one of wires touched timer,in the middle of night - 15 min of day .... Idiot .... Had a feeling to check, but weed laziness whispered me - everything is Ok ;)))))))) Update 3. Got so pissed from my careless, that bought Bluelab Combo, now i will know whats in my soil and i would check lights earlier if i knew that ( hopefully ;)) ) soil is underfed ;))) 200 pounds down ... and pitty harvest waiting ;(((( At least next one will be with full guns ! Sweet seeds strains, new ventilation system (nearest future upgrade) and now - full control over soil. New pot drain trays bought aswell ... Grower still the same tho .... ;))))))))) Day 67. First hermie found. This plant was tallest, so i had to supercrop it, maybe its was too many things just for this plant, anyway "Watchout" series 24/7 ... Lights changed to 11.5 day - 12.5 night. Craziest run ever .... Day 70. BlueLab Combo Plus arrived. Ph 6.2-6.4 - perfect, but no food tho. So today full feed watering, ph 6.5, ppm 800. This freakshow makes my heading, yesterday my holiday destination quarantined my country, so holidays are gone, could start new run now even and put them all to hash. Next week will show - if they recover , ill finish them, still issues - bubble hash time !!! ;))) Happy growing !!!

Fast Buds Cream Cookies growing strong, nice bud site development! The leaves are more yellowish than I would prefer. I was not checking PH previously and started checking the PH this week. My well water comes out of the tap around 7.3-7.4, which is a bit higher than most recommend. This week I PH'ed down to 6.3 and fed her Recharge only. Hope to see some more green coming back over the next few days.

Gracias al equipo de Seedsman y XpertNutrients sin ellos esto no sería posible. 💐🍁 Bubba Cheescake: Bubba Cheesecake es un cruce de Bubba Kush anterior al 98 con Cheese Cake (Wedding Cake x Exodus Cheese). Se trata de un híbrido 70% índica con muy buenos rendimientos, alto en THC y bajo en CBD. Bubba Cheesecake prospera en interiores y exteriores. En interior se aconseja un corto periodo de crecimiento vegetativo debido a la cantidad de estiramiento que presentan las plantas. Las plantas pueden crecer hasta una altura de 250 a 350 cm. cuando se deja crecer naturalmente al aire libre. En interior, la floración dura entre 60 y 65 días, con rendimientos entre buenos y altos, de 400 a 550 gr/m2. Las plantas de exterior son capaces de producir entre 700 - 800 gr. peso seco. En las latitudes norteñas, en exterior, los productores pueden esperar cosechar a principios de octubre. Los cogollos son grandes y duros como piedras. Las plantas maduras muestran atractivos colores púrpuras y azules y brillan con una resina pegajosa que cubrirá las manos del cultivador si no tiene cuidado. El componente Wedding Cake agrega dulzura al sabor del regaliz y el aroma es terroso y musgoso. La producción de THC es muy alta con un nivel bajo de CBD. El efecto es intensamente narcótico, fuerte y duradero. 🌻🚀 Consigue aqui tus semillas: 🍣🍦🌴 Xpert Nutrients es una empresa especializada en la producción y comercialización de fertilizantes líquidos y tierras, que garantizan excelentes cosechas y un crecimiento activo para sus plantas durante todas las fases de cultivo.

Day 50 overdue feeding and watering. 5g SimPro Bloom half gallon of 6.5PH spring water each. I'll never choose this fertigation method again. So much easier to amend the medium then top dress every 30 days. The plants seem normal for 50 days from seed, but not normal for a plant that is supposed to be harvest ready 60 days from seed. A few people here on GDs ran this strain way passed 60 days and maybe this is why. It's possible some phenotypes just take longer. No smell and no trichomes at this point. I would guess they need another 25 to 30 days to nug up. Day 52 they are both praying but still cannibalizing themselves. 5g isn't enough. Considering a top dressing. Day 54 - pulling 5 yellow leaves per day. This is not nutrient deficiency, these plants are fading. SMH I am behind pissed! Wasted 2 months of tent space and nutrients. I didn't do everything right, but the lesson for me is to stay away from fast strains. This is actually motivation to switch to photos. More forgiving of the small mistakes. In this case I overwatered in early veg. I should have tossed them both then. My preamendment ratios were off and I switched to water feeding during preflower. All of this has resulted in a plant that looks to be done in a week with marble sized fluffy buds that have zero trichomes and no smell. PISSED OFF!!!!! I'm learning through my failure but it still sucks! Day 55 Watered both with rain water, CalMag, and SimPro Bloom. I know CalMag isn't recommended in flower but I don't care about this bull crap plant anymore. I'm popping new beans and am gonna run these two as far as possible to see if I can get a decent top cola at least. Still pretty pissed. Day 56 Pics show how they respond to watering. Sheryl is praying, Candace leaves are up, but not praying like Sheryl. The only smell on either is from a stem rub. No visible trichomes. Not when I even zoom in. So odd! Day 58 Finally have some odor! These plants are growing like a regular auto-flower. I've been freaking out because the breeder says it's a fast strain (60 days). The lesson here is to always listen to the plant. Scrap the website crap and pay attention to pistils, leaves, and trichomes. They look and smell good for day 58. The yellow leaves are likely due to me adopting an abbreviated / hybrid feed schedule to suit 60 day seed to harvest. The day 55 feeding was 6g of SimPro Bloom in 51oz of water and that seemed to hit the spot. I need a good loupe so I can have a strong finish. Day 61 Fed Candace 1tbl of Terp Tea with Azos & Mykos, plus Fish Sh!t. Half gallon of Spring water. Bottom fed Sheryl Azos, mykos, & half tbls of SimPro Veg in 16oz of Spring water.

SLH#1 is more Sativa like, thinner leaves, bigger internodal space, smaller buds and looks like its going to take a little longer to finish flowering. SLH#2 is more Indica like, large leaves, more bushy, compact, bigger buds. They've been vegged for 3 months from seed, then clones were taken, 2 clones selected to become mother-plants (kept outside the fridge, in another cabinet), and 4 clones were sent to flower. They are in 7L containers, except for one plant (#2) that's in a 3L container. Vegged for 2 weeks after the transplant and then set lights to 12/12

Thanks to everyone who followed the diary, left a comment and shared the journey with us. And a special thanks to Piperoots for the great work behind this grow. The dedication and consistency throughout the whole cycle made it possible to show Tropicana Cookies from the first stages all the way to harvest. This is what we love: putting genetics into real hands, testing them in real conditions and documenting the results. Much respect to everyone following the project. More genetics, more tests and more diaries coming.

Letting her rip. Full on feeding now she seemed to have a deficiency this last week. Seemed it was a bit too cold for her new growth. It has darkened up as I turned the heat back up in my house. Strawberry cough is stinky. The smaller one doesn't really smell. Not expecting much from her. Started my vanilla frosting haze crosses on like Wednesday. Oh I added worm castings to both top soils and a layer of rice hulls over top as a mulch layer. I did this to help the soil in case the yellowing was from a ph issue or somehow a nitrogen issue which I doubt.

Bestva Quantum Board 2000 W & MrHide Seeds Semana sin problemas. Se aplicó a modo preventivo tierra diatomea disuelta en agua y pulverizada foliar. También se utilizó hongo Clonostachys, trichoderma, levaduras lácticas y transformadoras de celulosa, y Streptomyces; todos para evitar enfermedades bacterianas y hongos. Se están regando con agua llovida, regulada a un ph de 6.3 - 6.5. Se empezó a utilizar fertilizante de flora a razón de 4ml por litro de agua. Se ha defoliado 2 veces (1 en vegetación y otra apenas empezó a florar). Las hojas se están recolectando para hacer aceite full espectro medicinal sin THC. Suerte y buenos humos

Inhale for 13s, Exhale for 13s, Inhale for 8s, Exhale for 8s, Inhale for 5s, Exhale for 5s, Inhale for 3s, Exhale for 3s, Inhale for 1s, Exhale for 1s, Alignment. 1.618 More energy, more blueprint. A plant with both standard cellular respiration (occurring throughout the plant, including leaves and stems) and adequate root respiration will have a significantly higher ATP throughput than one restricted to only general cellular respiration in a limited way. Cellular respiration is the fundamental metabolic process that occurs in all living plant cells (roots, stems, leaves, flowers, seeds) to convert glucose into usable energy (ATP). It requires oxygen and produces carbon dioxide and water as byproducts. Root respiration is not a separate type of respiration, but rather a specific instance of cellular respiration occurring in the roots. Roots absorb oxygen from the air spaces in the soil to fuel their energy needs. Roots require a substantial amount of ATP for essential functions like nutrient and water absorption, as well as growth and maintenance of their tissues. The primary form of respiration in healthy plant roots is aerobic respiration, which is highly efficient, yielding up to 30-38 ATP molecules per glucose molecule. Anaerobic Respiration (Inefficient): If roots are deprived of oxygen (e.g., in waterlogged soil), they switch to anaerobic respiration, which is far less efficient, producing only 2 ATP molecules per glucose molecule and also generating alcohol, which can be toxic and kill the plant. Therefore, a plant with healthy, oxygenated roots performing efficient aerobic respiration in addition to the rest of the plant's cellular respiration has a much greater overall ATP production and energy capacity. A soil without organic matter will generally have a low Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC). Biochar is often prized for its potential to increase soil cation exchange capacity (CEC), but this effect is highly dependent on the specific properties of the biochar (feedstock and pyrolysis temperature) and the soil type to which it is applied. High-ash biochars, especially those produced at lower temperatures and applied to acidic or sandy soils, can significantly boost CEC by providing abundant binding sites for cations like calcium (Ca²⁺), magnesium (Mg²⁺), and potassium (K⁺). Biochar is more sustainable than typical organic matter for long-term soil improvement primarily due to its high stability and resistance to microbial decomposition, allowing it to persist in the soil for hundreds to thousands of years. This longevity provides a lasting positive effect on soil properties, particularly by increasing the cation exchange capacity (CEC) over time, while regular organic matter breaks down much faster. Biochar generally offers a much higher CEC than coco coir, though specific values vary greatly; while coco coir might sit around 40-60 cmol/kg, biochar can range from tens to over 200 cmol/kg, with sources like Acacia wood biochar or even coconut shell biochar often surpassing coco's capacity due to its porous structure, creating significantly more cation-binding sites for nutrients, making it superior for nutrient retention. Needs to be charged similar to coco but at a much higger rate. But shhhh.. It's a secret. Ancient biochar-rich soils in the Amazon basin (known as Terra Preta) provide evidence of carbon stability lasting over 500 to 2,000+ years. Recommend a balanced ratio of key cations, particularly calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and potassium (K). A widely accepted general "ideal soil" cation saturation ratio is approximately 65-85% Ca, 6-12% Mg, and 2-5% K. That's roughly what I give mine. Can even add N in its NH4+ form

Hi guys! This is my first grow ever. For this round I'll have 2 Northern Light Auto from WeedSeedShop (WSS). I'm so psych. 😝😁 I'm making the most off the current situation by realizing a long lasting dream off mine. For your knowledge, I'm using a 60x60x160cm grow tent, 2 small fan, an 220m^3/h extractor (220/280) with a 400m^3/h Bull Filter. I'm also using a humidifier for day time and a dehumidifier for night time. The germination pots I used are 7x7x7cm. For the monitoring, I have a low cost meteo station with a remote sensor which is in my grow tent. I'll use BioBizz and GHE for my nuts and BioBizz Light Mix for the substrate. I'm planning to reuse it for my garden on my future grow. I bought an anaerobic composter to this effect. I hope to make around 2 ounce. Take care. Stay safe and masked.😷

Wow what a strong weed. The yellowing stopped immediately after repotting and she wasn't stunted at all. I give her 3 liter water every other day. The temps are higher in this season I hope that will not be too much of an effect on yield. Humidity is OK so mold should stay out too.

This was the girls last week of Veg. ❤️ I did a big defoliation, the lit in my 4x4 custom SCROG netting and started tucking and bending the tops down to fill the spaces. They were looking pretty scraggly for a day or two after the defoliation, but within a few days the screen was filling out. I have a daily routine of lights on, tuck and bend, no weaving and then just before lights out I’ll do the same. Temps were good, watering has been vigorous. They are very thirsty! Feeding about 1 1/2 gallons every feed now, the 4 gallon pots are a bit undersized but I wanted to see what could Come of These slightly taller pots, rather than the wider regular sized pots. Haven’t had to add humidity this week, pretty consistent around 60%. At the end of the week I changed the light cycle to a 12/12 for flowering ❤️👊🇨🇦

420 Fastbuds Week 9 Gorilla Zkittlez Auto What up everyone it's week 9 for these 2 wonderful girls. They're getting super close to being finished. The smell I wish I could package and save its so delightful and nice. The flowers are fattening up great. I'd guess maybe one more week tops. I'm already seeing mostly cloudy heads on the trichomes. Hopefully be in time for a little Christmas meds. All in all Happy Growing
