🔥🔥🔥This heatwave is killin me.🔥🔥🔥 Thank God for the rain. Set kickin myself for deciding to hand water when I have everything I need to make an automated system. Taking clones trying to decide which strains to keep. Gave my gf's son 2 of the 3 pots that I had, so I'm down to 31 total. Indoor and outdoor should finish at the same time for a 50 plants harvest in the fall.😀😀 Even if I gotta build my kid a hamster ball, I need schools to open.

As we venture into week one of the flowering stage, the living soil within our garden beds has already been enriched with carefully selected amendments, laying a robust foundation for our plants to thrive. Living soil is not a static entity; it's a dynamic, breathing ecosystem that needs as much care and attention as the plants it supports. At this crucial juncture, our primary responsibility is to maintain the delicate balance of this ecosystem. Watering practices continue to play a pivotal role—moisture levels are kept at an optimal level, allowing the soil to dry between watering sessions, thereby preventing saturation and promoting oxygen uptake to the roots. Such measures are not merely about quenching the plants' thirst but also about preserving the intricate web of life that exists within every handful of soil. This web of life has indeed become more intricate with a massive explosion of predator mites that have become an integral part of our soil's community. These tiny but formidable allies are voracious predators of various pests that can threaten our plants. Their increased activity is not just a sign of a healthy ecosystem but also a natural form of pest management that reduces the need for chemical interventions. These mites, along with a host of other microorganisms, play a critical role in nutrient cycling and disease suppression, further enhancing the resilience of the plants during their flowering phase. The very life of the soil is now visibly bustling, indicating a thriving micro-ecosystem that contributes to the health of our plants. Above and beyond these microscopic interactions, the larger creatures in our ecosystem—the worms—have begun their vital work. The 'chop and drop' cover crops and clover that were introduced earlier have now become fodder for these earthworkers. As they consume this organic matter, they are not just feeding themselves but are also processing it into rich castings, a natural fertilizer full of available nutrients for the plants. This activity does not just nourish; it aerates the soil, creating spaces for roots to expand and for air to circulate. The sight of such activity is evidence of a living soil that is not just a growing medium but a thriving ecosystem in its own right. The soil, with all its biodiversity, is an orchestra where every organism, from the tiniest mite to the diligent earthworm, plays a critical part in the symphony of growth that supports our flowering plants. As each day passes, this ecosystem draws closer to perfect harmony, bolstering the plants in their quest to bloom with vitality.

Topping and LST is used and in the first day of week 3, I transplanted them to 5 gallons grow bags so they are growing well and the methods are looking great full to my plants. In those 3 clones, 91 Octane from In House Genetics was the biggest and tallest one.

The ladies are starting to fatten up and are looking great! Lots of long white hairs poking out, great stacking, and the smell is soooo loud. I’m having to run my exhaust 24/7 which has led to some cooler temps. I’m starting to see colour forming in two of the girls, but one in particular 😊 this strain should finish within 8-9 weeks, but others have gone longer to get more amber and couch lock out of the buds. Thanks for checking out my grow!

From Tiny Seed to Thriving Cherry Cola Auto: A Fast Buds Adventure! My friends get ready for a Cherry tail and one i am depply curious about it and about all <3 <3 <3 In the world of cannabis cultivation, there's nothing quite like watching a tiny seedling transform into a vibrant, budding plant. Today, we're diving into the magical journey of germinating the Cherry Cola Auto from Fast Buds Seeds. Not only are we exploring this fantastic strain, but we're also sending a shout-out to the folks at Fast Buds Genetics, thanking our sponsor, Aptus Holland, and celebrating the supportive community on Grow Diaries platform. So, let's get our hands dirty and dive into the exciting world of cannabis cultivation! We kicked off our journey by gently placing our Cherry Cola Auto seeds in a glass of H2O, like they were taking a refreshing sip of life. The seeds soaked up the water, and after just 24 hours, we witnessed the first signs of life - a tiny taproot emerging. It's like nature's own alarm clock, signaling that the adventure had officially begun! After seeing that adorable taproot, it was time to find a cozy spot in the soil for our Cherry Cola Auto. We prepared some nutrient-rich soil and gave our little green friend a warm, loving home. With a tender touch, we planted the seed, taproot down, and covered it with a light layer of soil. It's like tucking in a baby, ready for a long and restful nap. In just three short days, our Cherry Cola Auto broke through the surface, eagerly reaching for the world above. It's almost like the plant knew we were excitedly watching, and it didn't want to disappoint! The tiny cotyledons unfolded, revealing their first set of true leaves, and our hearts skipped a beat at the beauty of this young life. Before we continue with our Cherry Cola Auto's growth journey, let's take a moment to send some love and appreciation to those who've made this adventure possible. Fast Buds Genetics: You've created a masterpiece with the Cherry Cola Auto. This strain is a testament to your dedication and expertise in cannabis genetics. We salute you for bringing such a delightful variety into our lives. Aptus Holland: We couldn't have embarked on this journey without your support. Your sponsorship has provided us with the top-notch nutrients and care our plants need to thrive. Here's to a green partnership that keeps on giving! Grow Diaries Platform: To our fellow growers and the supportive community at Grow Diaries, thank you for being our digital companions on this journey. Sharing our experiences and learning from each other is what makes this adventure even more enjoyable. Conclusion: As we wrap up our germination report, it's clear that the Cherry Cola Auto from Fast Buds Seeds is off to a fantastic start. In just a few days, we've witnessed the magic of life emerging from a tiny seed, and we're excited to see what the future holds. This journey is a testament to the joy of cannabis cultivation, the power of quality genetics, and the support of an amazing community. So, to Fast Buds Genetics, Aptus Holland, Grow Diaries, and all you fellow growers out there, here's to the endless possibilities that the world of cannabis cultivation offers. Let's continue to nurture our plants, share our experiences, and grow together. Cheers to the Cherry Cola Auto and all the amazing strains waiting to be discovered! Happy growing!

Dear Growers :o) Im back with report. I can recommend this strain for many reasons ! First of all i would like to summerize the grow. The plant was first in my garden outdoors, where i did plant to measures of the 70x70 tent. That bring som eproblems at start with bugs and other stuff, but we survived! Next and last was my mistake to mix soil and coco, because when the coco dries it brings over nutri problems. I will learn from my mistakes and hopefully continue with next gro documentary here. Now im sure i will move from tent to regular furniture custom grow box, to be as stealth as i can and to prevent noise in the flat and smell... The strain : BCN Critical is really great plant , very potent and with nice orange trichomes. Covers with sticky and glossy resin. At the end of the flowering i hit in the box 75% of humidity and mold started in few buds, but in this extremew conditions. on the other hand i have few plants still outside and they are compeltely healthy (15 degrees during day and 90% humidityx near the river) so I can recommend this strain. the outcome from the one plant in the box was 132g ( 60g of big 3-4g buds) the rest are like tip of finger im satisfied with the result under 200W led lumii black light ! the smoke is really clean, with citrus touch, smells very strong from smoke, but the best is from vape! After few puffs You can feel uplifting high, then relaxed. Not my favourite terpenes profile, but really interesting. after 2 hours U can smoke again :).In compare with outdoor harvest its not so heavy to body high. thanks for watching my diary and keep growing !

Hello All! I'm BACK! I took a month off and I am so ready to get back to growing. I am adding a couple of things this grow different from my last. So look for some of the new things I am implementing. For starters! This time I will be growing from a seed. I purchased my seeds from Seed Supreme. The strain I will be growing this time is going to be SKunk#1. The Skunk#1 that i am growing this time is an Auto Flower. Two things are already different. Germinating from a seed, and growing an AutoFlower. 10/30/23 - Day 1 - Right now I chose to setup my heat mat, put the dome over the mat and put the water cup on the mat. I'm going to let the seed soak for 24 hrs. Tomorrow ill pull it out and put it in a damp cloth in side the dome with the heat pad. 10/31/23 - Day 2 - Happy Halloween yall! This is a good sign, less than 24hrs and the seed has already started to open. I got a paper towel wet, and I moved the seed to the paper towel. Ill keep her in the wet, paper towl. In the cup. Thats on the heat mat under the dome. Important to note, the heat mat is set for 120deg. Its off the ground on a table. I leave it on 24/7 during this whole process. 11/1/23 - Day 3 - I'm Really impressed. She already popped and sprouted a tail! I'm going to wait until her tail is sticking out a lot more before moving her to the LEAF box. So a couple of things got done today. I wanted to set up my Leaf box differently this time. Last grow I use the manual options for water and humidity. I was the person who would refill the water and the humidifier. This time I ran all the correct PVC to allow the Leaf Box to use the automatic process. I should be able to be super hands-off this time. I have an RO water system that I set up to feed the Leaf Box. I posted a Video of me taking the seed and planting it into Rockwool. I could start the Leaf box up now, but I want the seed to grow a bit more. Right now it's still on a hot mat, with plenty of water. I also added some Root Armor. 11/2/23 - Day 4 - The top of the seed is already starting to poke out. This seed has no chill.

As always this run is set to not Disappoint, we had such beautiful results with her outdoor and indoor, this time once again we see just how far we can stretch her limitations. Here's some stats from their website regarding this beautiful strain - "Origin:Hawaii / India / Colombia Type:65% Sativa / 35% Indica Flowering:64-66 days THC:25% Harvest:700-900 g/m2 Height:180-250 cm" Amnesia marijuana strains are among the most world-famous rich flavor Sativas, renowned for their energizing effects and exquisite smell. Amnesia XL by Divine Seeds was bred by crossing several Amnesia Haze phenotypes. The idea was to create a more massive variety with a shorter flowering period. As a result, Amnesia XL takes to flower just a little slower than Indica normally does: 66 days. Apart from that, the new hybrid has been proven sturdier and more adaptive to non-tropic climatic conditions. Descends from Thai, Hawaiian, Mexican, Colombian, Indian and Afghani cannabis varieties. Can't wait for her results

Purple Ryder is doing great. She is bulking and has a nice smell and frosty resin layer going. She is growing great under the Medic Grow Mini Sun-2, in Agrogardens nutrition. I did a solution change on her 4 days ago. Minor ph fluctuations, but it is mostly stable at the moment. Thank you Agrogardens, Medic Grow, and Doctor's Choice 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g
