Hey folks,
Hope you are all well during these pressing times... 2020 eh... so we are now into week 9 photos taken on Monday.
Recap: Late into week 8 on Friday, it was time to perform the second round of amendments this time switching it into my bloom ratio. 50-50 of gaia green 4-4-4 and 2-8-4 organic amendments. Carefully tilled it into the the first 1/4" of topsoil and watered in with molasses 50mL to 5 gal of pH 6.0 water.
Into Monday, I have spent a few hours having a brew and started to prune the ladies a bit with some selective defoliation to clean up the bushhh. Haha.
These ladies should start kicking into flower real soon since we are now halfway through August. Can't wait to see these girls stretch and begin budding! I'm hoping to stay ahead of the nutes due to it being a slow release system. I belive adding the molasass to the watering regime is supercharging thr soil. Plants haven't shown any signs of defficiencys! Happy times.
See you guys next week!

Oh it was a special week. Day 21 of flower marks the Silver Back Guerilla defoliation day!!!!
I left one be. For him. To prove me wrong. BUT!!! That one had some dead leaves at the bottom that needed removal, not the defoliated plants!!
Time will tell as to if what Im doing is right. I stick to my guns that this works for my room. Even though I read differently, removal of foliage has lowered my rh. Could very well be outside environment, however.
By day 21F the room was a bush again. In my opinion, it needed the heavy defo to breathe. As for light penetration, I am extremely happy with the amount of heads receiving direct light. Im a pig in shit
Thanks for looking, I dont want to hear your opinion on defo or schawazze, unless youre SBG

Hey folks. Into week 16 (week 7 into flower) and the ladies are doing great! Again putting on some mass! Temps have been optimal hover around 12-25degs, night to day respectively.
They are starting to stink up nice, lots of pine, kushy undertones and a hint of pepper! Sounds and smells insane. Its not loud yet but the aromas hanging out on the deck are amazing with a gentle breeze!
They are packing on some serious mass and producing an amazing amount of resin. Hope you guys enjoy the vids and pics.
Keep the peace :)

Day 38 since starting germination:
Everything is looking healthy and happy. I’ve continued leaf tucking & LST. Upped the amount of Diamond nectar from 1ml/gal to 4ml/gal and added Liquid Koolbloom to the feed. Keeping the lights on 20/4 has kept the average low temp a degree higher at 66. I also changed the positioning of the lights. Now the Atreum hydra-3200 is providing ~700 ppfd across the canopy.
At this point I’m starting to feed for flower so when I did my water change I also changed the orientation of my RDWC buckets. I removed the bucket with the Northern Lights photo period from the loop so it could be connected to its own reservoir and be fed a veg nutrient solution while the Sour D auto gets its bloom nutrients.
I’ve seen some saying a ph of ~6.5 is more ideal for autoflowers so I will be trying that this feed…which works out nice because my solution happened to be right there after mixing the nutrients.

What an amazing strain, the plant purple all around giving these amazing range of colored leaves. The buds are super tight to the touch and heavy filled with trichomes.
The past week I only gave plain water. Giving her the time to use all the nutrients already introduced. I was thinking about using Flawless Finish but decided to keep it purely PLAGRON nutrient from start to finish.
The competition deadline is close so I hope you all enjoy some of the pictures I was able to share.
Next week I'll harvest, but already I can't tell that she will produce great buds once dried.
Update 30/05
Harvest day!
Added a last set of photos, thanks to Zamnesia and Plagron for setting up the competition, had fun growing this beauty.

Big week! I got my new EarthBoxes and a bunch of goodies. I picked up the Probiotic Farmer's Alliance kit from BuildASoil, so I also got some EM-1, Kashi Blend, dolomite lime and Malibu compost. Alongside that I picked up Colorado Worm Compost (vermicompost), Gnarley Barley (malted barley, corn and hemp) and Craft Blend (aprox 3-5-2 organic mix). Unfortunately there was a bag of soil missing, so I ended up using my own mix though I am somewhat scared of it being too clay-heavy for the SIP. I inoculated with EM-1 and began fermenting a batch of activated EM-1 to make the bottle last longer.
It looks about a week from LST, after that I hope to set up a two-tier SCROG setup and begin growing the bushes. I will begin spraying AEM-1/EM-FPE/EM-5 alternatively once a week for IPM, I will try to avoid using neem this round (unless I find this approach lacking). I also brewed a batch of EM-FPE with aloe that smells incredible, I can't wait to give it a go.

This was a very rough year for growers. I tackled spider mites, thrips, pm and leaf septoria. Unfortunately these needed to be taken a little early due to a number of factors. The smoke came out amazing. Closest I've come to a lb a plant. Smokes great and had that citrus taste that comes with blueberry. I am very proud of myself. I'll finish this review later. Phones dieing.

it was interesting and easy, the variety has a very high potential, the plant has survived both a deficit and an overdose, but she coped well! the effect is pleasant and strong. I recommend an excellent variety for its price!

Seeing a lot of changes since I’ve started the LST. Most of the plants are doing good exept for one that seems to be having a hard time. I will also be adding an xl exhale co2 bag.

Having to increase cal/mag due to my led lights. Took me a while to figure it out but other than she’s looking good. Hoping she turns out great. Did some minor lower defoliation other than that don’t plan on cutting too much more off. No negative effects from it either. Didn’t skip a beat.

Her buds are growing and growing.. There are still about 4 weeks until harvest but her buds look awsome just now : I hope I can wait until she's finished, hehe
She's looking beautiful at the end of week 9.
