I have bad news friends. A grief happened. After I updated my diary a few days ago, there was a hurricane on the street and there was a strong ice hail. The size of the ice balls reached several centimeters. That is why I am forced to do diary updates ahead of time. As you could already imagine after an ice hail that lasted 10-15 minutes. Because of this, the plants are very much affected. From the beginning, it became very dark on the street, as if night had begun during the day, after which there was thunder and thunderstorm and freezing rain began. I immediately began to worry about my plants, but I couldn’t get to them. Hurricane and hail began as suddenly as it ended. When I came to the place today, firstly I saw that the whole reed fell to the ground, so my secret passage to the secret place became open, and my buckets became visible from far, through the fallen reed. Most likely I will be forced to move the plants even further into the depths of the swamp, but now I can’t do it, because it has flooded a little, but my plants are on an island. I know that the reed will recover and rise when the weather is sunny. The second problem was when I saw the plants after the ice hail, it is that they were very badly damaged. Two plants managed to survive the ice hail with minimal losses, they lost only a few leaves. The third plant was interrupted by a central one on the crown. And the fourth plant suffered the most. His central stem was interrupted, and almost all lateral processes and leaves were broken, and only 3 branches remained on it. Broken parts of the plant lay below. This is very sad, since I wanted to try these plants most of all. Unfortunately, I could not do anything against the weather and the sudden ice hail. You won’t argue against the Russian weather. With grief, I drank vodka. I am extremely sad because of this at heart. Where they grow, the sun is not too much for the plants to completely recover. Part of their potential will be lost forever. They will survive, but they will not be able to give a full crop in the areaBut despite this, I will continue to keep this diary, as part of the plants remained alive and safely survived the ice hail. From the very beginning, after the ice hail passed, I thought that the plants would be completely dead, since it was almost impossible to survive under such a hail, even people ran away from the street. The fact that several plants remained unscathed, and two though they suffered damage, but everything grows evenly, is a real miracle. The city was very strong and big. Therefore, with your support and my love, I hope that they will show what these plants are capable of under the given conditions. If you are interested in following the adventures of weed in Russia, subscribe to my diaries and leave your comments. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ У меня плохие новости друзья. Произошло горе. После того как я обновил несколько дней назад свой дневник на улице произошел ураган и был сильный ледяной град. Размеры ледяных шариков достигали нескольких сантиметров. Именно поэтому я вынужден сделать обновления дневника раньше времени. Как вы уже могли себе представить после ледяного града который продолжался 10-15 минут. Из-за этого растения очень сильно пострадали. С начало на улице очень сильно стемнело, как будто днём началась ночь, после чего был гром и гроза и начался ледяной дождь. Я сразу начал переживать за свои растения, но никак не мог к ним попасть. Ураган и град начался так же внезапно, как и закончился. Когда я пришёл сегодня на место, во первых я увидел что весь тростник повалило на землю, поэтому мой тайный проход в секретное место стал открытым, а мои ведра стало видно из далека, сквозь поваленный камыш. Вероятней всего я буду вынужден перенести растения ещё дальше в глубь болота, но сейчас я не могу это сделать, так как его немного затопило, но мои растения находиться на островке. Я знаю, что тростник восстановиться и поднимется когда будет солнечная погода. Второй проблемой было когда я увидел растения после ледяного града, это то, что они очень сильно пострадали. Двум растениям удалось пережить ледяной град с минимальными потерями, они лишились всего лишь нескольких листиков. У третьего растения была перебит центральным на макушке. А четвёртое растение пострадало сильнее всех. У него был перебит центральный стебель, а так же сломаны практически все боковые отростки и листья, на нём осталось всего лишь 3 веточки. Отломанные части растения лежали внизу. Это очень печально, так как именно эти растения я хотел попробовать больше всего. К сожалению, против погоды и внезапного ледяного града я не смог ничего сделать. Против Русской погоды спорить не станешь. С горя я напился водки. Мне крайне печально из-за этого на душе. Там где они растут, солнца не слишком много чтоб растения успели полностью восстановиться. Часть их потенциала будет потеряна безвозвратно. Они выживут, но уже не смогут дать полноценный урожай в данной местности. Но несмотря на это, я буду продолжать вести данный дневник, так как часть растений осталась жива и благополучно пережила ледяной град. С самого начала, после того как прошёл ледяной град, я думал, что растения будут полностью мертва, так как выжить под таким градом было практически невозможно, даже люди убегали с улицы. То, что несколько растений остались невредимыми, а два хоть и понесли урон, но всё ровно растут - это реальное чудо. Град был очень сильны и большой. Поэтому с вашей поддержкой и моей любовью, я надеюсь что они покажут, то на что эти растения способны в данных условиях. Если вам интересно следить на приключениями травки в России, подписывайтесь на мои дневники и оставляйте свои комментарии.

Day 14 VEG: A good week of settling in and heading outwards to the pots edges this week. No stress , just a nice, relaxed , adjusting to the world they will inhabit for the next 10 weeks or so. They are nearly all on their 5th nodes now so will possibly begin to play with the 5th growth nodes this week to break the apical dominance ( focus of energy on the main stem and bud) . I do like how neat and tidy autos can grow naturally but they can also get leggy and waste a lot of grow room vertical space that is always at a premium for me in my cramped , awkward space. I plan to now use 3 different methods on the Amnesia haze to compare side-by-side as we grow. Will hopefully answer some questions about the methods and which produces better results. One will be topped , one f.i.mmed and the last one trained over horizontal at the 5th node but uncut. The last method is better suited to a wider pot than the ones I am using but will be worth a try !. They are currently happy and healthy with no signs of any genetic issues but the #2 is in a more compacted soil which has resulted in an odd rectangular shape to her overall footprint. Her middle leaf points are retarded on all of her fan leaves so far and it will be interesting to see how she progresses too. The Girl scout cookies are also nice and healthy looking so far with no concerns at all. I plan to defoliation one of these ladies at intervals and stripped her right back during flowering while the other one is kept intact with a light defol as it grows to avoid light blocking only. Again this could answer a few queries regarding autoflowers and defoliation for a few of us. I hope to make this an interesting and informative run and welcome any comments , advice/questions or general chatter as we go along. ANY SPONSORS WITH TOO MUCH MERCH OR STUFF TO TEST , I AM GAME LOL. Just saying...... Until next time growmies. Be well UPDATE DAY 15 LST. today I started working with the ladies and completed the planned methods for them #1 Amnesia haze had the F.I.M which inhopenworks ( irony at it's best!!). I chose topping of Amnesia haze #2 as she looks like her nodes will be quite far apart compared to the other 2 and her lower growth was nowhere near as bushy as her 2 sisters either. This topping should stop her pushing the height of the lights up for her lankinness. #3 is going to be pulled over on her 5th node once it is long enough to pin down to 90° . Girl scout cookies have been cleaned of their 1st and 2nd nodes so i can focus the attention on the 5 remaining mains as they grow out more.. watch this space.lol .

What a world of difference a week can make when growing auto-flowers. I did a lot of maintenance on these girls the last couple of days. See pics and videos. Two of the plants have stretched out nicely. The other three are falling behind, but looking very nice. There is a strong citrus smell happening right now. Smells like I have a tent full of fresh lemons. Started using Big Bud and Bud Candy this past week. Tent 2as getting quite crowded, so I also moved the water reservoir on the outside of the tent. It was very hard to cut a lot of those beautiful buds off the plants, but I think it will pay off. I also got the new Vivosun Grow Cams, so far I like them, but I do have some feed back.

16.2.25: I decided to check out the lower canopies of all plants to see if I need to get rid of any foliage. I did get rid of a few small branches and leaves. However, whilst I was doing this, I saw more garden pegs from my LST remaining. There were about 6 or more in Pink Mist alone. Additionally, on Watermelon, there were some left in, too. I'm so annoyed to see that because the plants are really stretching, and I could've potentially disrupted this by leaving the pegs in for all this time without realising it. 🤞 that I haven't compromised things too much. We'll see. I watered today with 2ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.3 containing the following nutrients; ♡ .8g Green Leaf Nutrients PK booster ♡ .5g Ecothrive Biosys I ordered quite a few things for the garden. I got Greenleaf Nutrients Sea K(elp) and Mega Crop Parts A+B. To go with their PK Booster I got last month. I'm excited to try it all together. Next run, maybe just using these. We'll see how it goes. 18.2.25: The plants are going crazy for water! Everything is getting used right up so fast! Today, I decided to add some more Black Strap Molasses to add some carbs and other micronutrients. I'll add the jar with the label in the photos section above. I watered a very small amount to each plant. What I put in: ♡ Black strap molasses 150g ♡ 2g Sea K(elp) Greenleaf nutrients. I dissolved everything in 4ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4. 19.2.25: I received the majority of the garden purchases that I made. I'm still waiting for the Ecothrive Life Cycle. I wanted to top dress, but it's been delayed unfortunately. I am using my Greenleaf nutrients products which I bought on Amazon. I got the Mega Crop 2 part system Part A and Part B. I have the Sea K(elp), and the bud explosion PK booster. I really wanted to get some of their sweet candy asking read many positive reviews. Unfortunately, for me, this is unavailable to buy currently. So that's a little disappointing. I needed to do a good watering so when my nutes were delivered today, I got excited 🤗 I watered 2ltrs of dechlorinated water per plant, PH'd to 6.4, containing the following nutrients: ♡ 1g Mega Crop Part A ♡ 1g Mega Crop Part B ♡ .5g Sea K(elp). The plants drank this up within a few hours. I'm going to try and hold off on watering in hopes that my Ecothrive Life Cycle will arrive so I can top dress and water it in then. 20.2.25: My Ecothrive Life Cycle arrived yesterday, and the plants are ready for their top dress and a good watering in. I have some Biobizz Light Mix, Canna Coco,and perlite. I'm going to use this as a base to mix my amendments in. I'm going to fill my 5 gallon bucket with about 4.5 gallons of my top dress mix. I will distribute this across 6, 4-5 gallon pots. Then I will water in well with Greenleaf nutrients Mega Crop Parts A+B and Sea K(elp). I've made a crude attempt to video mixing my top dress. Don't listen to the audio. lol, my YouTube didn't stop playing whilst I recorded this 😂 So anyway, I added the following amendments to the above base mix of 4.5 gallons; ♡ 3 TBSP Ecothrive Life Cycle ♡ 3 TBSP Vitalink Bat Guano ♡ 3 TBSP Ecothrive Charge ♡ 1 TBSP RHS Mycorrhizal Fungi granules ♡ 6 TBSP Ground Cinnamon.

Re adjusted lst wires . And defoliates. Maybe I over defoliated. But the goal was free up the space in between and . There was a lot of new growth everywhere but they were so small that I decided to cut them off and let all of the energy go towards the main branches. I am going to post a before and after . I pretty much did the same to both . But I didn’t touch the smaller plant as much . Also on the doc og I topped each of the heads

Base nutrients were reduced and PK 13/14 increased. So far she seems to take the change well. The buds keep swelling and are already rock-hard.

Chop day. Everything is looking and smelling incredible. The range of smells I've got so far are: floral, grape, blueberry, gas, burnt rubber, tangerine, funk. Everything appeared fully mature beside the Cambodian x Meat Breath and Pak Man so decided this was the best time to cut them down.

As flores começaram a engordar bem mais rápido agora. Dá para perceber no decorrer da semana o aumento no volume dos buds. Devido ao peso eles estão pendendo para os lados. Tenho que colocar arames para mantê-las na vertical. Isso também melhoraria o espaçamento dos buds.

I still have to go thru all the photos but wanted to get the video up for all of them first. If your interested in the pics come back at the end of today and they will be up it just takes a while. Noticing more seeds poppin thru, I hope it's from the moonshine cookies pollen cuz the female turned out bomb and the male wasnt too bad either so they might be decent seeds. Started the flush on the citradellic and the other ones might have got their last feed yesterday. Should be finishing up next week and the week after.
