This auto ghost of is at day 21 and she has been growing like crazy since she broke the surface. She has the potential to be a real work of art if I can keep her happy. I upped the maxigro to .5 tsp per gallon and started them on a little armor si so they can build some strong branches. Still running them on 24 hour light and 24 hour irrigation. They are going to stay under the blurple lights for a few more weeks until I can get them in the big room under the quantum boards. I'm hoping they will flower around 4 weeks but my autos seem to enjoy staying in veg so we will see what happens.

Gorilla, gorilla, my problem child. The only one popping out of 5 but she is weaker than her roommates. She stays behind compared to them. But what can I do other than TLC, she has the best conditions, which are optimal in this grow room, also judging by the other two plants. Until I have a bigger operation, which in the current political climate, is not soon, where I can make mothers and clone them, breed my own strains, and root out runts like this, we do it like life. We play the hand as it is dealt to us and we love all our children the same... although this one is special. So not a genderfluid Silverback yet, but it ain't over till the voluptuous lady sings. We shall nurse this little runt until adulthood, who knows she might surprise us, she should have the mighty Gorilla Glue Number Fouh genes in there somewhere. Now come on out here and show daddy what you're made of... This week we spread out the leaves and branches, some leaf tucking and gentle LST, to prepare for some higher stress and super cropping today. Two days back we made the switch and set the lights to 12/12. Now the flowering stretch will begin, thus we bend the branches further outward in preparation for the canopy. When I do this I notice the branches are thick and sturdy, with no breakage at all unlike my previous grow, the gelato 33. I snapped some branches applying the super cropping and just normal bending with those. It seems like the fan (I didn't have a good option previous grow, hence the flimsier branches there) but also this lighting and soil regime are topnotch, asides from outdoor I haven't seen such lush bushiness yet, even on a more runt-like plant. This MarsHydro SP3000 is still performing great, such controlled temperatures, such an ocean of light. I only wish I started growing with this earlier. Thanks again @MarsHydroLED for trusting us to test your mighty flagship light. It is so well made, it oozes quality, I just want to touch it every time (also to check if it stays cool) and it is just sexy, slender, and compared to my other 300 watt light, a completely different spectrum and clarity. If you are looking for new lights, look no further. At www.mars-hydro.com they have excellent and unbeatable deals on tent and light combinations where you practically get a tent for free, it is ridiculous. I was afraid the light wouldn't cover the sides of my tent with my 4.5-foot space. Penny at MarsHydro had to laugh at this a bit, said not to worry. What an understatement. This light could signal to other galaxies. I sincerely recommend good sunglasses with this light. Only thing I'm adding is an infrared light Sunshine found. With this I'm going to simulate sunrise and sunset and try to prevent stress by easing the light in and out, like in nature. We are in flowering now, very excited to see what she will do here. What can she perform? Will she cover the net? Will she deliver gorgeous buds, like she is known to do? On these cliffhangers I hope you will tune in next week for more gorilla-related plantporn... go on... you know you want it. Hug Bud!!

En el comienzo de esta 3a semana de vegetación, parece que la situación va mejorando, gracias a las personas que me aconsejaron bien, para no entrar en pánico... seguramente estaban estresadas y ya les paso...😂😂😂 en fin, esta semana subo el EC a 0,6, distancia de las luces a 1,2 mtr y veremos cómo procede. Tengo ganas de probar una CORTE APICAL con este cultivo y ver qué beneficios me trae; si alguien lee esto y me quiere aconsejar cuando y cómo hacerlo, soy todo oídos.

12/01/2021 FIMed all plants a second time, and also FIMed the tips of the other main branches of all plants. They will get another dose of Recharge with their next feeding tomorrow. I will give them exactly one week to recover from this FIMing, and will flip these plants to a 12/12 light flowering schedule. These girls are supposed to have a flower period of about 45 days, but I am expecting to have to run them about 50 days or so. My goal is to get over 8 ounces of nice bud on this run. 12/02/2021 I fed two gallons of water with the nutrients listed above. 12/05/2021 I gave all the girls a second major defoliation. I plan to switch to 12/12 flower cycle this Tuesday evening. 12/06/2021 I removed a few leaves and fed two gallons of water with the nutrients listed above. These girls are doing excellent. They have responded very well to the major defoliation that they received. I will flip them to the 12/12 flower cycle in a day or two I believe. I uploaded a couple of pictures of the strains I plan to grow in the future, which is mostly Humboldt Seed Company genetics

I cut the plants, remove the remaining fan leafs and hang the plants upside down inside the dark tent for 8 days. After 8 days I trimmed the buds and put them into glass containers with boveda packs. I burped the containers everyday for 10 minutes (first two weeks twice) for about 4-6 weeks.

Added some cheap Wilkos organic feed into the mix because why the hell not? All plants look happy, healthy and green. PK will be added the next 2 weeks of peak flower. This plant is at the back of the timelapses.

I had to wait to see if they're healthy before flipping so postponed them for two weeks, all in all they are all good. Before I lowered ppm to 800 and they thrived. I overtrained them I think and overfeeded as well, burnt tips. Haven't touched them for 2 weeks and these are monsters now.

Assuming there’s only a few weeks left before harvest, 2-3 weeks. More or less the same thing throughout. Didn’t deal with pests, disease…just lived a good life

I didn’t yield as much as I would like but I did get some quality flower 83 ofgrams worth between the three cardi b plants, and about 74 grams of 2 envy mintz plants I did have a lot of stress in the beginning which got corrected late and also I might have flipped too early , but all in all it’s some tasty beautiful flower definitely running again gonna do 1 plant this time so tune in for that journal

Flowering looking good still seeing the rusty brown spotting on upper fan leaves and drying out. I included pic of what it looks like. Since I was only using tap water and tiger bloom 3-4 tsp per gallon I gave it a rest and then just used cal-mag 1 tsp per gallon through the next few waterings. Not sure why this sometimes happens. Most things I read point to either deficiency in calcium or magnesium, but I believe the tiger bloom have some of that in there already. I know the tap water has calcium. Maybe it was too much TB? I was being pretty aggressive with it at 4 tsp per gallon. Other than that I am not stressing over it. I have lowered dose of TB to 1 tsp per gallon every other watering. Temps are low 60s and humidity is in the low 40% now. Only using the flower switch on my light considering the distance from my lights is about 10". Buds are developing nice though it seems.

Después de germinadas las semillas, la planta comenzó a crecer rápido. Las hojas espigadas agarraron fuerza. A pesar de ser la misma cepa (las semillas venían juntas en el mismo packaging), una de las dos se disparó en su crecimiento y la otra está algo estancada. Por ahora, las plantas se ven sanas, con un lindo color verde.

Well this little girl is forming very much like kush buds would , very dense and thick bud with very few white pistel hairs , A very attractive bud too watch form , she is packing on bud like there is no tomorrow as you can see from the pics and drinking the pot dry every 3 days of 8 pints , the colour from this plant is truly a sight indeed and the smell she is giving off is like a mouthful of blackberry jelly and icecream back when you was a kid , i am very excited about this one and cannot wait too try her ,

Hello all and welcome to the much anticipated beginning of vegetation for these five Epsilon F1 Autos from Royal Queen Seeds. Allow me to introduce Ally, Normani, Lauren, Dinah, and Camila. All five girls have pushed put their 2nd node (3 fingers) and node 3 is on the way out. I expect all five girls to take off from here, and so the next seven days are going to be big. I will start fertigation today. For comparison purposes the Day 1 here means Day 1 of veg. For Ally, Normani, and Lauren this is day 11 since breaking ground, for Dinah day 10, and for Camila it is day 9. For the rest of this grow I will increment days from here but it's really easy to work out days since breaking ground as it is a simple matter of day + 10, 9, or 8 respectively. Day 1: Fertigated 2l. Day 2: Right ok. Can you actually believe this response in 24h? The poor girls were STARVING. Wow look at the change in color! Wow look at the growth!! Ally is most advanced, Camila least. It is fascinating so see them develop! They are growing faster and faster now. So let us talk about the elephant in the room a little bit. Phenotypes. At the moment there is absolutely no evidence to suggest that this crop will be anything other than uniform. Nevertheless there are some clear differences in some of the girls. So let's have a look shall we: Ally (center), Normani (closest to the middle purple basil), and Lauren (opposite side to Normani): These three girls are not quite identical, but it is a pretty challenging game of spot the difference. Dinah: Okay so Dinah is coming in noticeably darker than her sisters, with a little more tendency to claw, and with quite a bit larger and more angular serrations. Her first leaves are also a different shape. Camila: Little Camila had a twin, but I killed her with some overzealous tweezing before I realised what I had. She came in with only one cotyledon, and she came in last. Her first leaves are quite different to the rest of Fifth Harmony. She is also showing slighty more narrow leaves. She is lastly also very slightly more pale than her sisters. Are these phenotype differences? I mean in terms of the environment, feeding, watering, substrate, temperature, light, airflow... well these girls are all in the same pot, so unless I am particularly haphazard in my mixing and fertigation (which I can assure you I am not) I do not think it likely that these ladies have significant enough environmental difference to account for these quite clear visual differences. I am absolutely fascinated to continue to witness this, and it has only now occurred to me what a great privilege it is to be able to grow the world first F1 cannabis hybrids, and what an astounding honor to be one of the very first hobby growers to do so! The fact that RQS made this happen by not only supplying the seeds and other merch and goodies, but also sending expedited international shipping so as to fit within my arbitrary timescales is almost unbelievable. When these guys (on their website) say that it is their belief and mission to forge the path to worldwide legalisation, they are not hollow corporate whispers, it is their core of being. Cannabis everywhere is truly blessed to have such a worthy and proactive ambassador. Bravo RQS! I have adjusted the timer such that the main tent is now getting 20/4 upped from 18/6. After monitoring DLI at 18/6 for a week I am unhappy with the overall level but because of the varying heights of the plants I am limited in what I can do in adjusting the light height. Some areas were only getting 20 DLI. So I have rearranged to have the taller plants on the edges and the lowest in the middle and doing it this way all plants are getting between 35 and 50 DLI at 20/4 - although one or two cola tips here and there are getting 55. Will monitor for a week. Day 3: Well look at this growth again!! These ladies have responded to feeding really well. Fertigated 3l. Day 4: Growth is accelerating fast, these ladies will be ready for their first training soon. I am starting to formulate an idea what to do. I am thinking of topping Ally and LST on the rest. Day 6: Fertigated 3l. Ladies growing fast now. Will soon be time to start training. However! The secondary nodes are developing strongly. Hmmm Day 7: Fertigated 3l. Defoliated the three fingered leaves from Ally and tucked the five fingered under other plants. End if week summary: Well when they said "hybrid vigour" they were not joking. Look at day 1 and day 7 side by side after approx 6 days into veg growth. Wow.

Well I made the decision to remove the plastic cover of the greenhouse because these babies are HUGE. Never had a plant this tall, ever, especially an auto. I removed all the lighting and left them and the other hydro girls exposed to the natural elements. Most were barely showing any signs of flowering so I figured the natural lighting would be sufficient and promote flowering. All my lighting is IP65 rated waterproof so I'm still looking for another way to mount them to run during the day when light is scarce or on cloudy days etc. But not for any extra time compared to sunrise and sunset. Have been removing large fans from the bottom up, exposing lower nodes. Also have been adding support their extremely long branches or tieing them back to the main stalk loosely at a node with hemp rope. At this point I'm not at all dissapointed that these Devils haven't flowered sooner, I expected delayed flowering because of the high doses of Superthrive throughout most of vegetative life. I just hope theres enough time left in the season for them to finish! Had to add an extension on our fencing lol, but the neigbors seem cool 😎, its legal anyways. Will add official height and current pictures in a few hours.

Всем привет 🤝 Замочил орешек в бутилированной воде на 16 часов , затем высадил в торфяной куб ! Утром показались листья 🍁
