*ADVISE NEEDED* The day before yesterday I discovered a huge error in my system. I placed filter material in the feed-throughs of the breeding boxes. This is to prevent the roots from growing together over time. However, what I caused with that is very difficult to explain. The bottom line is that the distribution of food and circulation was actually not good at all. This also explained the differences in the water temperature, but also PH and EC values. That is now completely under control because it now runs stably for 2 days. However, you can see that the records have had a bad start. I am thinking about starting over. Week 3. Week 2 was looking for the correct settings for my system. I found out that the temperature in the bins is quite different. When I set the water chiller to 19 degrees, it all flows fine into the first container. There it rises about 0.5 degrees per bin. The margin of the chiller is about 1 degrees, causing too many fluctuations in the system, with tray 1 becoming too cold and the last one too cold. I solved this by shielding the box at the inlet of the tent with heat-protective foil. I also put a fan on the water chiller. If that catches on, the entire loft heats up, whith more fluctiations. However, I have enough space to measure very precisely and I am getting more and more control. I think the brown leaves were the cause of much too hot water. Since I have the water temperature under control, I see that the new leaves are growing nicely. Moreover, since yesterday (13-5) I received the nutrition. 10 days late. I just finish the root scheme I think. That is still 3 days a 70 mm per day combined with BioBizz Heaven. I tried to take some pictures of the roots and some close ups. I hold the lid with my left hand and with my right hand I try to take a picture zoomed in (max). While the wind makes the roots dance past my lens๐Ÿ˜ต Something different than usual ... Hope you like it. If you see something that needs to be addressed, let us know. It is my first breeding so there will undoubtedly go wrong. This week I also connected the water reservoir with which I can flush the entire system at once. With this I also control the Ph in the system. Will post photos soon.

Ladies and gentlemen, here we are at the start of week 3 and so far so good.. She has only gotten a light feeding Maxibloom about .1 tsp per gallon around the edges of the pot, so the roots have to go searching.. I haven't given her any liquid in 4 days in the pot still has some weight to it so i'm gonna give her another day or two before feeding..Kannabia Seeds much appreciated, these genetics are great. All they needed was some good medium, and there isa match made in Heaven .. I hope everybody's doing well and so are their ladies.God bless and heavy growing ๐Ÿ™ โœŒ๏ธ

No major changes this week but the plant is still taking 2ltrs of water every 2nd night. I have stopped giving nutrients now so itโ€™s just getting Phโ€™d water. Some of the lower leaves are turning yellow as expected. From this week on Iโ€™ll be dropping the temperature a bit during lights out to help produce more trichomes and also turn it a bit more purple.

Week 8 Flower Flush flush flush ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿšฝ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿšฝ๐Ÿ’ฆ It's extremely important to flush for at least 14 days when using synthetic nutes, or any bottled nutes in my opinion. The aim is to make her cannibalize (fade) as much as possible before she's chopped. By doing this, she's using up her stored nutrients, causing the leaves to eventually die. The better the flush the cleaner the smoke ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ’จ even when in an organic set up, the plant needs to be nicely faded before being harvested. Otherwise she's still full of nutrients. I still feel I'll be able to get an even better flush when I eventually make the switch to RO water, as my tap water holds a ppm value of approx 150. It's not too much, but 0 is always better. She was taken down on Day 57 flower, after a 16 Day flush. I didn't want to take her any further as she was quite stressed being so close to the light. So to avoid getting seeds I waited until she had a beautiful fade before giving her the chop โœ‚๏ธ I always take my girls down about 30mins before the light turns on so there is minimal chlorophyll production in the plant. This is to ensure the best smell, taste and overall burn after drying and curing. A subtle but very sweet-ish tropical fruit skin kind of smell to her. Her buds are super dense and covered in trichomes. I trimmed off all fan leaves and then each branch was hung in my drying box and placed in a cool area. She was dry after 6 days and ready to be dry trimmed and jarred for curing. I'll post those pics with the harvest update! Thanks for following and happy growing! ๐Ÿบ

Well she popped up very fast as to be expected these beans just explode with growth . The only thing holding my girl back was the container I put her into a 400 ml container made of glass .The first issue I had was green algae on my roots from the lights so I covered the glass from light. Then it was the constant watering that had to be done as she drank a lot.. The plants structure was good and the smell as well it is a great smelling strain from the 2nd week it was flowering .At the end she started to smell string of skunk and and another smell I can't say what exactly . The team at fast buds has a great line up of genetics and I'm going to try my hand at some more in the near future ..cheers everybody and good luck anyone else growing in the solo cup challenge ...

This week no real issues. Everything seems to be under control. The little runt has really came along way. Taking the plants A, & B out to get pics in natural light was an eye opener!!!!! I did a little more LST on plant B and plant C. Iโ€™m a huge believer in LST now huge plus is that when watering it is way easier than a none Trained plant.

So I have decided too pot up the 3 toronjaz girls into bigger pots, 1 because the older girl needed it but 2 also because I feel they needed space and a new home too stretch their roots out ๐ŸŒฑ The above blend will hopefully help these girls soldier through these first crucial weeks, let's keep our fingers crossed ๐Ÿคž I'll be doing light lst over the next week for the older girl, maybe top her end of week 3 maybe 4 depending on how she grows ๐ŸŒฑ Light feeds slow and steady will do as new too aptus buy I hope I can do well with them as they seem really simple too use and also their website has lots of usefull info incase I'm in need ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘Š These will be tidied up and given this space too their selves once my fastbuds testers in the back there are ready for new pots and their new space I have waiting ๐ŸŒฑ

Hey All!!, Huge growth week, and we have moved into the flowering stage. These girls were 24/25 days old as of Sunday the 24th. They are all now between 14 and 17 inches tall, which is about double in one week. The tallest went from about 8 inches to 17 inches in just 7 days. I fed them twice, mid-week prior to last Sunday they got CaliMagic and Regenisys and then last Sunday the 24th I fed with Nector of the Gods and did start the Terpinator. Today is Wed, Dec 4th and they are about ready for another drink. They look really good, nice and green and they have just a faint berry smell. The one area I could have done better is with my LST. The dang things grew so fast last week that I just got behind, I should have started a few days earlier. However, once I did the LST they began to fill out nicely. I stuck 2 videos in, one prior to LST and one after I had finished. You can see how much the branches were being covered as the leaves were not growing very quickly. They are much happier now being spread out. Quite happy with the progress so far.

The start of week 10 is going well. I am monitoring the Nitrogen deficiency and will see how the plants react to the latest feeding. I believe the plants are getting a little light burned. The tallest cola is 5" from the light yikes! Stretch seems to be over. I can't raise my light so I have dimmed the light to 75%. I will watch the plants and see how they respond over this week and go from there. On day 5 of week 10 I applied Cal/mag to address possible cal/mag deficiency and or Nitrogen deficiency (Cal Mag 4-0-0). I applied weekly nutrients(week 5 flower) one day early. I also added Enzyme supplement to reservoir. This week has gone well and the flowers are getting smellier and bigger everyday ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Welcome: thanks for dropping by. Be sure to drop a like so I know you viewed and I'll pop onto see what you got a going, or not, it's up to you. This lady will be ran on a mix of 3 different nutrient brands. I germinated her in La Calavera/Voodoo juice, atlas and La Sirena from Terra Power. Y I called La Calavera voodoo juice you probably wondering. Well here's a little bit of info. So terra power is new, but they are far from new to the understanding of what makes great nutrients, these ppl are the ones who actually make their own nutrients they don't get specialists to do it. For example. Terra Power are the ones who hold the pattens and make some of ANs best products that made them who they are today. They've taken most of ANs line up and perfected it with modern day research with autos/ruderails and leds in mind. They haven't changed 3 core nutes which we all know as Voodoo juice, tarantula and Piranha, yup u read it. These guys are the makers (patten holders) of all that top widely used award winning nutrients. Even if you look at there base nutes what's in them, will blow u away. Have a look for yourself. Led-grower.eu/terra-power/ you'll see a chart with AN product names and an = sign beside it and the corresponding terra power nute that they have perfected upon will be beside it. Also for 70e a L Piranha they charge 50e a L for the exact same stuff just a dif name. There base nutes start as little as 8e. The Piranha and tarantula will be the most expensive as they are the same on AN just not as expensive as 70e. Very excited to see what there 50 billion microbes per 1ml enzyme will do aswel as the bud/resin foiler enhancer sprays, or you can use them in the substrate or hydroponics. Was surprised that the PH was perfect for these 3 nutes it came in at 6 exactly with my new milwalkee meters I can 100% trust the readings. PPM was 627 idk which one did it, as Voodoo juice has no EC value. I was so use to AN products I only remembered to PH/EC test the spray bottle after I did the 4 plants I used all them 3 just for seedlings. Thankfully the PH was perfect and these weren't even their PH perfect nutes which they have not only in their base nutes but they also have a stable PH buffer for hydroponics as PH can jump mad in pure water as the water goes down the stuff that was in the nutes is left behind and causes your PH to rise as it's taking away the ratio of water it was mixed with and in turn increasing the ratio of PH from the nutrients into the water. With mystic green that will be a thing of the past. It's like a ph - + but it'll hold a stable PH when you dry your roots in 15l and say if it drinks 5L that normally means your PH will rise around by a 1/3 or just rise unless you use a - + buffer. Whereas you find your desired PH and then add the stabilizer and it'll keep the PH in that level. Well that's my understanding of it. Read up about them if you are thinking of buying AN look at these as these ppl made AN what it is today. They should work together like a dream as I'm sure their formulas are close just terra powers were made in the past year not 5-10 years ago. I've been dying to try the jungle juice so will be using just them from AN and the rest will be Terra Power Nutrients. (OK, THATS ENOUGH ABOUT NUTRIENTS) The plant herself is a new strain and hasn't been widely grown yet. So, there's not a big base line to go by and see how far she can be pushed. FB though, is a hardy breeder and gives little in the way of Hermies and so on. I don't have to worry about room or height this time so I'm going to go heavy with LST and train these girls out. I'll top most of them but 1 or 2 I'm going to let it grow natural. Just a bit of LST. Gonna be hands off on this 1 For the first few wks and focus on improving my LST and other skills on my other 13 plants. Will be good to see what the jungle juice trio can do on its own, see what the happens. Expecting big things and yields from these grows. 30/4/22 Veg started. 38hrs in and she's up and going strong. (Update 5hrs after this update plant 2 has popped) Glad I turned the light on last night. For the 1st day the light will go on for 7/7 making sure to give these lil guys a rest is important and as they are autos it won't hurt in the slightest. Something I'm trying out. As if the fems pop up though I'll be then starting the lights on a 20/4, regardless of where all the other autos are at. It's important to get that light cycle in the plant straight away but for autos. A lil rest at the beginning will go a long way. Just until they are showing lil fan leafs or you can wait until they show them and then turn your light on. Decided to start these 2 on a few nutrients early. I've used Mystical Green, Artios Touch and fire yields all from Terra Power. None of these nutrients have any EC change to the solution. Mystical Green does many things but it's main purpose is to facilitate and stabilize PH allowing other nutrients to continue working in a constant set PH, as PH tends to change when added to soil or if in hydroponics when the water level goes down the PH buffers or ph from each nutrient is left behind and can cause an imbalance in your mix. I use .2 of the trio of jungle juice which changed 100 PPM to 350 or .7EC , very potent stuff. I really can't see using 4ml of each of these nutrients as the EC would be off the chart. Maybe it even out the more you add, idk, very small amount makes a massive EC change. Gave 100ml of 6 new nutrients on top of the low PPM feed they got when planted. I'll feed again in a few days. Maybe 4 and give water in 2 days. 1/5/22 Growing well plant 1 2-3x as bigger than Yday. Plant 2 4x bigger than Yday both will stay on the sane strength nutrients for the rest of the week. 2/5/22 100ml both plants. Tip dried both tops to stop any fert burn/water droplet burn. Same strength from day 1, same 1l mix holding same PH/EC. Very stable. 3/5/22 Plant 2 looking a little pale. Will up EC to 1.5/750ppm. Will upload pic after comes out of dark rest. Added 2ml biobizz calmag to my new mix will apply this week. Made 1L 400Ppm mix and split into 81L bottles. So it is only about 50ppm if even that. 4/5/22 Both plants are showing light cal mag def. Bit hard to see but it's there. I don't think my jungle juice is high enough. I've added cal mag and will stay the course for the rest of the week and then I'll go her EC to 1.8-2. All plants are close to spliting and breaking off making a new node maybe 2 days off. Or less. 5_5_22 Split has happened on mist of them. Growing strong. Their faces are 6&7.5 cm long and in height 6.5&7.2cm PPF of canopy is around 450-480. 6/5/22 So, it's begun. I've created a negative pressure environment, 1st time, let's see if it makes an impact. On wk 3 onwards I'll be running the intake extraction for 5mins every 30mins and I'll have 2 co2 bags up. If the RH becomes a problem or temp I'll put the extraction/intake back on 100% of the time. The extraction fan/intake is set at a ratio of 2 to 1. (100% extraction 50% intake) making a negative pressure environment, best way to show you have done this, the walls in your tent should bow in lightly. Same Day. Okay, so this my last update. Going to run fans the same right up until flower and then I'll be sealing up my tent and adding 2 co2 bags. And will be adding a dehuimifier and setting at 45% And it checks every 30mins and if it's gone up it'll turn back on and bring down to 45 or set RH, so no co2 will escape. The temp will be bordering 30-33c and then when they go into their rest window they'll be transferred to to a negative pressure environment with low temps and 45-50%RH. I'll only be able to do this for the 3 weeks of pre flower. And maybe some more, it depends how hard the dehuimifier will be working, but i want dense buds and only way to improve that is by introducing Co2 and then a negative pressure cold environment for terps. Then I'll be putting them back into full negative pressure environment and the Co2 will be useless, again all depends how it's gonna affect my bottom line. That and I only have 2 intake fans. I'll be going into detail about my Co2 adventures the week before I'll be prepping them to be able to withstand high temps, so I'll gradually bring up the temps the last wk of veg 28c max and that way when I push it to 30-32c in pre flower she won't stress as much and then they'll go into 6hrs of 21c, back to negative pressure environment. Should bring the temps down from 30+ to low 20s within a min, so I'm hoping to bring out the terpness. Will go into details about Co2 and how to create it in a grow tent without spending 4-500euro. You will need a dehuimifier though and 2 20$ Co2 bags. And an reasonable air tight tent. Thanks for reading this week, this is the last update for this week. gottagrowsometime

Dam! Where do I start? Firstly I started to get yellow leaves. Secondly I also seem to have stunted the growth. The yellow leaves were due to lack of oxygen. I am using coco soil and I did not realise that the soil can hold up to six times more water than normal soil so that caused a few issues. I also managed to cut the roots when I transferred the plants to new pots. This has also delayed the growth. I think I have managed to get it in time and everything seems to be going OK but I feel the next 2 weeks will be the big tell. I expected the babies to be fuller and taller but hey! I make the mistakes so you don't have to lol. I've no real questions to ask because I think I solved the issue with the help of a fellow grower and a bit of research.

This plant had a 2 week veg time and yielded insane buds
