The final week! These Auto's are BEASTS!! No more nutrients just leaching with tap water Ph between 6 - 6.1 the taps ppm is 200 so I will eventually get an R/O system. Really packing on some weight!! Had to tie branches to other branches to hold them up. Did a final defoliation a little late in the week normally I would do it at the start of the last week.

Pink Mist is looking good, has stopped growing as much, and is starting to get into proper flower. I have much else to say, however it seems I'm unable to, due to grow diaries cutting off all my comments, so I decided to save myself much time, and sadly just not say it! Thanks for checking out my diary 🍃 ✌️

Already week 7, and it’s starting with much better air humidity which makes it easier for me to stay in the recommended VPD range – currently 54% at 25 °C at canopy height. With 58, 67, 78 and 80 cm plants’ average height is about 71 cm. Odour has increased, and sometimes, but only shortly, I get the feeling the coal before the blowers cannot eliminate all of it. While the smell was a bit strange sometimes one and a half week ago, it’s now absolutely yummy, sweet and promising. As is all the sticky stuff adhering to my folding rule when I measure their size. I am a bit confused about the amount of yellowing leaves. That would indicate a nutrition deficit. On the other hand, last feeding (yesterday it was only calmagged water) brought some brown edges to their tips as I wrote. Which could indicate a slight over-nutrition. I am not *that* worried as leaves around the buds all look great (except for mentioned, but not youngest tips), and mature plants obviously tend to concentrate on bud production solely. But week 7 is quite early, or isn’t it? Any recommendations? Maybe I should go with organic fertiliser next time to avoid being stuck between two options ;) As they had run dry already, I gave each one another round of drink. Slightly less fertilised than last week. And I removed the lowest yellow branches and tiny buds that would not make it into the light in time. The Pineapples must have some mimosa genes crossed in. Each time I touch them they bow away their heads in deep dislike. The taller one looks like her head would be too heavy now … It is not, and usually they recover after an hour or so. The Sherbets are pretty unimpressed by all I do. Meanwhile I’ve been working on the Raspberry Pi BoxControl that should help me stay in better VPD ranges in the future. I am not sure how to translate this all into a more stable solution than based on a breadboard, but the state so far (and how it is supposed to work): Raspi runs headless with control software on autostart. Every minute temperature and humidity are received from a GY-21 I2C chip that should be hanging around plant tops. Data is saved in a database, VPD is calculated and signalled in form of a RGB LED color. Additionally, LCD display rotates through current stats. 3 relay modules can en- or disable misting, dehydration or an additional blower. Maybe I can add a CO2 sensor just for the fun of it (but I’d have to develop a device protocol myself), maybe even one or two soil moisture sensors. Theoretically you could also have a lighting control, but then, GPIO ports are all used. The display needs a lot of them, and while I can log onto the Raspi on my local network and view its desktop, I’d prefer to have a quick overview at place. I am not really informed about current models. Are some GPIO extensions or Raspis with extended GPIOs on the market? But so far, that’s all theory. I never had a PCB developed for my hobbyist projects, I am not the best with a solder station. Never had a Raspi run 24/7 for a really long time. Did a bit more lollipop ping in the evening. Especially tallest Shepard had fun building some more very low buds and branches. I think it can investigate its powers better on different places. Day 51: It’s getting hard to measure soil humidity with my low tech device. Soil must be full with roots and I don’t want to hurt them much. I can see them at the outlets of their pots too, sometimes a bit dry of course as these parts run dry earliest. Experiments to include the CO2 sensor in my test setup failed. I can read and reset it, but setting measurement mode and reading values don’t work. Maybe because my I2C library cannot use ClockStretchLimit. Running out of GPIO ports anyway and seeing that the soil sensors are analogue devices, I’ll probably revive my Uno too and have discovered some clever Raspi heads that should make a more stable setup (and some cooling) possible while also adding a handful of PWM ports and an integrated display. I’d like to include a camera module too and it would be great to have some ports available. A final setup would obviously include a Raspi 4 or 5 to easily enable secure online access. But so far, all working nicely in test setup. Day 54: Sometimes I wonder if they’re still growing at all, but then it’s good to have the daily pictures to compare bud width which now seems to be the main interest of the ladies, although differences are now clearer to tell between two day intervals. The taller ones look like they are one week ahead of the smaller plants, with even higher fan leaves turning pale now. Which at an estimated seed–harvest time of 8–11 weeks for both strains should be pretty common, I guess. Or am I wrong? Summerly temperatures make the temperatures at canopy level sometimes reach 31 °C, but at least the simple ultrasonic diffusers arrived and I am getting closer to a better environment control. I can at least switch the diffuser inside the tent remotely from my phone, and a deep bowl of water with a lid so the "fountain" produced will not wet the tent floor and one of the fans placed at the bottom now to lift its mist upwards seems to do the trick. Humidity increases while temperature drops, getting the plants into a better VPD level, so all I have to do is wait for the evil A to deliver the necessary Raspi components to have this automated, maybe still while this grow runs. At the end of this week, there was just a bit of height gain for the two smaller ladies who now approach their next 10 cm mark. Overall, I get the feeling it won’t be that long until harvest. Maybe with the taller ones a week earlier than the others. There’s really not that much bud growth anymore, rather refinements – like buds getting more nodes and color. I’ll investigate the trichomes every few days but would welcome your estimation.

Grow diary 11 Stage 1 Days 1-10 By day 4 all was looking good, she had plenty of roots coming out the bottom of the cube. Day 6 I transplanted her to the 3 inch rockwool cubes that had been soaked for 15 mins in this stage nutrient solution and left to drain for 15 mins, then she went into the bigger propagator. Day 10 she had no roots coming out the bottom of the 3 inch cube yet. Over the last few days she has been getting more exposure to the fan, with the lid of the propagator the humidity is on the low side, but i want to get some air movement around her. She has also grown o.k over the last 10 days. She looks healthy enough and is where I would expect her to be in growth. Temp Max 30.6c Avg 26.6c Min 21.2c Humid Max 85% Avg 69.7c Min 45.7% VPD Max 1.86 Avg 1.03 Min 0.44 Hopefully back in 10 days

Hi guys So end of week 4 and entering week 5 now. Few issues this week with the feeding of the plants. Dark phoenix are hungry well half of the plants are anyway 🤔🤷‍♂️ so I upped the feed to 1200ppm the dark phoenix didnt mind it as it needed it but my blue cheese suffered and has significant burnt tips on every leaf 😅 I will disconnect this from the auto feeder and flush and add half nutes by hand in a few days. Othere than that the plants buds are growing and getting frosty. Thanks for looking and happy growing guys👌💪💚 Day 37 flower I changed the marshydro tsl2000 to a 400watt hps to finish the job on the scrog along with the bloomplus bp2500 250watt led light. So cheese got burnt quite bad I totally disconnected it from auto pot system and feeding ph 6.5 water only for a week. Dark phoenix is really frosty now still loads of pistils standing on end and filling out now and smells amazing. The next 2 weeks I will keep feeding bloom and top max then I will start the flush on them. Happy growing guys.

Day 36 1/13/25 I think she is taking to the location okay so far and after the first cut I did I’m not sure what I’m doing I’m just doing my own little mainline thing experimenting I guess I’m using APSU super soil and a little bit of build of soil 3.0 left from last grow and it’s a 7 gal pot als 1/14 day 37 Did second and final topping going allow about two weeks to bounce back and allow more growth and LST then flower

Good growth this week but I think she is still in Veg mode.... I hope I have not made a big mistake not FIMing her or any of the others in the tent. She is easily the tallest of all four.

This week we flip, actually, these pics are 2 days into the flip. All going good, its gonna be packed, have to get in the SOG and clear the bottom this week also, added a net to the SOG side to keep the canopy a bit more level. I hear, thats not a real SOG then, the point is, these plants are younger and even with a SOG keeping that canopy level is key. Humidity is always a chore, its something i'm worried about for the flowers so will install an even larger Dehumidifier over the next week or so. Using the spider farmer light control is nice and simple, my auto irrigation is working fine... Onwards and upwards.

2 more weeks or thereabouts. 1 more blackstrap molasses tea. And then it's all Distilled going forward. Reservoir will be opened up 24/7 until emptied. Then top down flushing with aloe water for round 1 and distilled until finished.

Day 70 of flowering It has only been three days since my last update.. But hence the confusion of days past, I'll update it now again since this is day 70 and that markes week 10. The girls are looking very nice, if I may say so myself. The smell has intensified very much during the last days, yesterday when I opened the tent it really hit me hard in Tha nostrils in a good way. That smell that I couldn't set in words are still present but it smells lovely! I'm not at all sure how fast the trichomes are developing, so I'm checking up on them every day. This leads to alot of uncertainty of when I should start to flush. Some leaves have been yellowing for a while, at a slow pace and I fear that I might start the flush to early or late. But I'm thinking around day 71-75 will be the last day with nutritions. I have uploaded a picture of the trichomes, please let me know what you think?

Apple Strudel Auto - FastBuds Hello welcome to my new Growdiarie, nice to see you again. Today I will start my first indoor grow and take you with me on my journey. Since I was able to gain a lot of experience through my outdoor grow this year, the first indoor grow will be much easier. The reason for this is that the parameters for an optimal grow are easy to influence. As in the previous grows, I decided to use the water glass method for germination. After about 48 hours the seedling root formed. The germination process was carried out at a temperature of 25° Celsius near a heater. The seedling was planted approx. 1 cm deep into the 25 liter pot. This time I used soil from Plagron. The pot was filled with Plagron Growmix. At the end I filled a hole the size of a 1l pot with Plagron Lightmix so that the seedling does not come into direct contact with the pre-fertilized soil. Plagron Lightmix N 180 mg/L - P 210 mg/L - K 360 mg/L Plagron Growmix N 216 mg/L - P 252 mg/L - K 432 mg/L This time I will also work with fertilizer. I have two different ones to choose from. One is the mineral Plagron line (Terra Bloom, Sugar Royal, Big Bud, Greensensation) and the starter kit from Advanced Nutrients. As the soil is pre-fertilized for the first 3 weeks, it does not receive any additional fertilizer during the vegetative phase. After the first 3 weeks I decide which plant gets which fertilizer. At the end i can draw a rough conclusion as to which fertilizer series has performed better. The experiment is carried out with different varieties. I will also try tie down LST. Set-Up: Now a few words about my setup. I have full confidence in AC Infinity. During my research, I have only heard good things about AC Infinity. So what can I say? When the package arrived I was immediately impressed by the high quality. From the packaging to the product, everything is perfect. I ordered the lamp from kingbrite. The advantage of the lamp is that you can adjust the angle of the LED panels. The lamp is also compatible with the controller using adapter type b . Tent: AC Infinity Cloudlab 844 Exhaust air: AC Infinity Cloudline T6 incl. activated carbon filter Lamp: Kingbrite P55 / 480w, dimmable Fan: AC Infinity Cloudray S6 Gen. 2 Controller: AC Infinity Controller 69 Pro Pots: Gronest 25L

In der sechsten Blütewoche haben sich die Blüten weiter verdichtet und an Größe zugenommen. Die Pflanze profitiert sichtbar von der erhöhten Lichtintensität und den zusätzlichen Netzen, die für Stabilität sorgen. Das Scrogging hat sich als äußerst effektiv erwiesen, da alle Blüten gleichmäßig Lichlt erhalten und sich prächtig entwickeln. Die Pflanze wirkt insgesamt sehr vital, und die Blütenstände zeigen eine schöne Harzbildung, was auf eine erfolgreiche Ernte hoffen lässt.

I got a new job and I’ve been so busy I feel bad haven’t kept up on my diary. Here’s the jack herrer. she’s looking good, I was under watering due to being so busy and having to take care of my newer grow that I was starting to neglect this girl but I quickly turned it around and have started paying more attention to these girls.

Im doing a bit of defoliation, moreover the leaves that covering the buds, i cut some small branches on the bot of the plants, to keep energy for the distal parts of the branches. Every 2 day approximately, to no stress a lot the plants, I pinch the apex of MD1, MD2 and BB1, that my secondary branches go up, until the height of the apex central. Nutriments : 2,0 mL/L of rhizotonic, 2,5 mL/L of cannazym every watering. 2,0 mL/L of terra vega every 2 or 3 watering in case of they need (N) until the final of the strecht (first 2 weeks of bloom). I will put 5L every watering (pots of 18L) and I will analysed the drain of every plants to check pH and the fertilizer amount. Im really proud of theses plants, they are strong, resistant (the trunks are huuuge, moreover the Moby dick from Dinafem) and so healthy !! The MD 3 has reacted really really good with the topping ! Im impressed and quite sure do topping next time ;) I hope they will give me the best of themselves !!!! Lets wait the final of the strecht 😉
