Who Gave the Ape a Marker?!
Have split the girls into 2 tents, 4 in a 2m x 2m, 2 into a 1.5 x 1.5m to give them more room and better air flow. Have also scrogged 3 of the 4 plants in the bigger tent. Lights are now 100% veg 100% bloom 0% uv. There was zero stress from defoliation a week ago. I feel like for whatever reason I鈥檓 doing everything wrong in the Autoflower rule book but they are loving it all. Have added a product into the mix this week called secret sauce, it is a natural plant stimulant and it鈥檚 mix ratio is 1ml / 200L and have bought back cannazym because I finally had time to get to the store. Am very much excited to see the final harvest

Hi everyone hope you're having a good week. Much happier on that RQS Organic grow. I will not rush to conclusions but RQS are doing amazing 馃槈 job on the Organic Nutes. She's going amazing no issues so far detected. Growing her bud sites drastically I probably have 8 buds with 6 close nodes on them. So excited 馃槅 and happy 馃槂. She is moved to a new home for a few days. Other wise I have Done a bit of defoliation and LST this week. Feeding her only RQS organic Bloom every second feed. And I have big a surprise waiting for you on her soon. Happy Growing
Sleep Outside
Hey Cannafam Happy Monday, My Apricot gal has had another good week overall, mainly to a continuation of consistant lovely weather 馃槉 Although not as hot as last week its been Sunny everyday apart from a little rain Friday morning, its been really consistant with daytime temps of 21c -23c Tuesday - Sunday and today its crept up to 25c, nights have been an average of 14c. Humidity has remained high in the range of 70-90% and Daylight hours are currently at 16 hrs 14 minutes. Growth wise shes loving life, i was happy with her shape in last weeks update, but her main cola had stretched quite a bit further upwards this week and needed further pinning down, and all branches have also had good growth and been trained out further to the sides of the pot. Fyi the the height logged is the length of her main stem as if vertical. Flowers are slowly kickin in with new pistils and her smell is now also starting to develop, and when close shes giving off a slightly sweet aroma but very delicate at this stage. I've also done a bit further defoliation on the bottom of the plant so as she goes further into flower any breeze can blow freely underneath through helping keep humidity down between colas. Feed wise shes only had 1 helping this week but will be getting another at the end of today, i've not changed quantity as she looks really happy with no sign of deficiency or excess. On the pest front the ale i used last week is too dark to see through, but there are some foamy looking lumps in there, so something has definitely gone in! When it evaporates a bit further(or they drink it) il have a slug count with pics clean and refill. I dont really like pouring away ale or any alcohol, but i spose its worth it! 馃槄 All in all shes coming along nicely, thanks for stopping by and hope you have a nice chilled week 鉁岋笍馃挌

VARIGATED Mimosa Cake Auto | Living Soil
Pests The amount of sciridae increased a lot (as expected, because the population should be about to collapse), but I also noticed that they were being accompanied by exactly 1 premature spider mite (drop in RH). Because my environment seemed to fall out of an equilibrium, I thought about using fine quartz sand (0.1 - 0.4 mm) and nematodes to hinder the adult Sciaridae from laying eggs and also actively hunt for their larvae, while being able to get back on watering regularly... In the end I actually ordered those - but decided not to use them because the process of drying out the substrate was already in its final stage [foreshadowing: bad idea]. Plants Also, the variegated plant got cellular damage... most likely because my temp. and RH varied too much (VPD and temp. spikes were too extreme and rapid). [Variegated plants in general are less resilient and need a more stable environment]. Setup Until now, I didn't use any fan so that I could keep the moisture and temperature up, but from now on, I will start to activate an exhaust fan at about 0,5 -1 air exchanges per minute. This should homogenize the environment but also decrease the temp. by 1-2 K, and the RH yet again by another 10%. It also allows the plants to transpirate more efficiently, and with that, normalize the VPD. Living Soil In general, when the pests are in control, I will yet again focus on the 'right' environment rather than battling those pests. With this approach, I can keep the moisture content in the tent the way I want to without worrying about anything else.
CANDY KUSH EXPRESS
I lost all my pictures of my candy kush harvest but the bud was pretty uninspiring, not much for terps or smell and just makes me sleepy so been using it when I get home from my 12 hour shifts at 7am so I can get to sleep quick as possible, will be the last plants EVER from royal queen seeds ,defended them for the last year but since growing real breeders seeds I see that rqs is most definitely a white label seed company that sells us all fake genetics that are not what they say they are,I gave them every chance but when I grow 5 different strains and they all end up looking,smelling and tasting exactly the same theres something fishy going on ,sucks too because now I don't want to give those strains a chance because rqs's version left such a bad taste in my mouth(literally and figuratively)

420Fastbuds-FBA2508 I'm excited as it's tester time. Germination week is complete. I planted 3 seeds and had all 3 sprout within 48hrs of being in the soil. I do soak them for 48hrs in a glass of water before planting. I can't wait to see what the weeks to come will have in store. Happy Growing
