The germination process was successful. Within 36 hours the root sprouted from the seed shell.

I’m at the home stretch now. Two weeks till harvest. This grow has flown by! The buds are really swelling. They don’t yet look as big as some of the clusters on the last harvest. But those were all untrained and had way fewer bud sites. The difference this time is there are way more buds. PH is now good too. Soil is 6.5-7.0 in most tests. I’ve just given the final feed. From now on I’m just flushing them with PH adjusted water. The Biobizz nutes are PH neutral. I suspect micro organisms in the soil are raising the PH with their waste. I’ll always add PH- to the feed from now on. There are rusty spots appearing on some of the leaves of the most stretched plant. Possibly low in magnesium. I’ve feed with calmag. The affected leaves were all close to one of the lights though. Maybe that has something to do with it? Temps and humidity are bang on. The rig in the tent is keeping the temps in the high 20s. Outside the tent it is sometimes dropping into the high teens. The humidity in the tent is around 50%. About 10-15% down on the outside room. I’m really pleased with the impact of training Seems to have had on the plants. The LST, topping and super cropping has definitely had an impact. Even with autos. Ok. So one plant stalled. It was the weakest plant, was late and was not planted in the centre of the pot. I should have LSTed only. But I topped it. Pushed it too far. I’ve learnt a massive amount on this grow.

on day 21 of flower the 2 lady have got a new Haircut. Also some composttea on day 22 of flower. Light hits the plants with around 850 PPFD. Both plants look very similar (same leaf shape and structure), but one is about 15% larger than her sister. They both look healthy and vigorous.

Very happy with this grow !

Day 34 this lady is running, I can see flowers getting bigger every day, smell started really really soon this time so I already had to add the Carbon Filter. I’d like to close the cycle in less then 80 days. It would be great First flowering fertilisation Ph 6.2 Ppm 631 Day 37 - 9 of flower 🌸 Started blooming fertilisation, I’m keep Giving all-in one from aptus, i think I lm substitute with super pk and I stop all in one. Ph 6.2 Ppm 731 As I’m growing an solito in a 9.2 lt pots with all mix nutrients I’m slowing down with all in one and just giving base feedings, I ll decide later if I should give super-pk for the next weeks Day 40, tomorrow will be feeding days. Sge’s going really well, resin is already showing up on flowers that are several as and colorfull, smell is already there 🤤 Tomorrow update with feedings parameters.

Week 02 Introduction This week has been a bit of a struggle. Had my first experience dealing with slime and brown algae. But I think adding enzymes and increasing the beneficial bacteria helped to fix the issue. Also experienced nutrient burn for the first time. My nutrient solution strength got as high as 671 PPMs. So backed it down to about 430 PPMs during the end-of-week reservoir change. Also cut Hydroguard (expired?), CaliMagic, and Superthrive from this grow. Now she's still stunted, but is starting to recover. Hopefully... [START OF WEEK 02] Day 01 - Monday - 08/10/20 - Total Days: 008 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: Still looks a bit yellow. But getting larger! --- Solution strength was at 248 PPMs. --- Just topped off with a bit of distilled water --- PH went up to 6.1 so PH'd down to 5.8 --- Ran the top feed for a bit to wet the hydroton. - [2130]: She's looking even more yellow now. --- Even the new leaves are really yellow. --- Decided to add more base nutes. --- Added 4ml of Sensi A --- Added 4ml of Sensi B --- Now at about --- Solution Strength went up to 304 PPM. --- PH was at 6, --- Also raised the water level a bit more. --- I really hope it's a nutrient deficiency and not an over-watering issue. --- Please live! Day 02 - Tuesday - 08/11/20 - Total Days: 009 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: Looking less droopy. But still yellow. --- Decided to do a reservoir change. --- 4.5gal of distilled water --- 8ml of Sensi Grow A --- 8ml of Sensi Grow B --- 8ml of Voodoo Juice --- 4ml of B-52 --- 4ml of CaliMagic --- 4ml of Hydroguard --- 4 drops of Superthrive --- PH'd down to 5.8 --- Solution strength: 302 PPM --- Since I didn't want to risk over-watering the rockwool, I did not to do a top feed, may do one tonight after the sleep cycle (lights are still set to go off at 10am and back on at 4pm). --- As I was doing a reservoir change, I noticed that the tubes and bucket were a bit slimy. Didn't really stink or anything. Is this normal? Maybe due to the Hydroguard and Voodoo Juice? --- I hope she gets better soon! - [2215]: Getting larger! But still yellow. --- Also can see a root growing through the net pot! Tiny little thing but it's there! Will have to start dropping water once more appear. --- After looking over a few DWC diaries using AN nutes, seems like my solution strength is still too low. Most around this stage average around 500 PPMs with about 4ml per gallon. --- Top fed for a minute to wet the top of the hydroton. --- Solution strength went down to 263 PPM. --- Added 8ml more of Sensi A --- Added 8ml more of Sensi B --- Now base nutes are at 16ml for 4.5 gal of water. --- PPMs went up to 411. --- Still lower than 500 PPMs, but that's okay. --- PH was at 6. Not sure if I should adjust PH using AN nutes. So going to not ajdust unless PH goes above 6.1. Day 03 - Wednesday - 08/12/20 - Total Days: 010 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: Looks like more root growth! --- She still looks yellow. But leaves are perky. --- PH was at 6.2 so lowered down to 5.8. --- Solution strength was at 394 PPMs --- Since roots are still growing, I decide to lower the water level a bit. Now water level is a bit below the net pot. - [2200]: Root is getting longer! --- Slime is returning. Not sure why. --- Solution strength: 357 PPMs --- PH: 6.1 --- Decided to add an enzyme along with more beneficial bacteria to hopefully cure the slime. --- Added 16ml of Sensizym --- Added 5ml of Hydroguard --- Added 8ml of Voodoo Juice --- New solution strength: 430 PPMs --- New PH: 6.1 --- Top fed for a minute. --- This slimy residue is really freaking me out! I hope the added enzymes will help eliminate the slime. --- Going to do a full reservoir sterilization/nutrient change over the weekend. Please survive until then girl! Day 04 - Thursday - 08/13/20 - Total Days: 011 ----------------------------------- - [0930]: I think the enzymes worked! There is little to no slime now! --- Although I think the root was also dissolved in the process. It's now just a little stub sticking just below the net pot. The enzyme is also suppose to dissolved dead roots too but guess that root was too weak? Not sure what happened there. But I think the slime is cured! --- Solution strength went down to 395 PPMs. Decided to add more base nutrients. --- Added 8ml of Sensi A --- Added 8ml of Sensi B --- Added 4ml of B-52 --- Solution strength went up to 598 PPMs. --- PH was at 6.1 --- As long as the PH is between 5.5 and 6.3, I'm not going to use PH Up or Down. But still will monitor PH levels. - [1715]: Checked up on her after her nap and shes looking alive but stunted. But no slime! --- Decided to add some sugars to help maintain the enzymes and beneficial bacteria. --- Solution strength was at 587 PPMs. --- PH was at 6.2 --- Added 8ml of Bud Candy --- Solution strength went up to 671 PPMs. --- PH also went up to 6.3 --- Lowered water level a bit to hopefully promote more root growth. --- Top fed for a minute. --- She is getting bigger, but still looks yellow. Day 05 - Friday - 08/14/20 - Total Days: 012 ----------------------------------- - [0915]: Leaves look a little burnt on the tips. Still no slime. --- Going to back off on the PPMs to hopefully fix the nutrient toxicity. --- Solution strength was at 632 PPMs --- PH was at 6.3 --- Added/Removed water until PPMs were at 536. --- PH was still at 6.3 --- Raised water up a bit, then top fed for a minute. - [2200]: Looking better. Still yellow though. --- Solution strength: 514 PPMs --- PH: 6.5 --- Added PH down. --- New solution strength: 518 PPMs --- New PH: 5.2 --- PH was kind of high. So decided to PH down. Had to use quite a bit to bring it down. But eventually got it to drop down to 5.3. A little low, but so far, the PH has always gone up so wanted to start it really low. --- Ran the top feed for a minute to re-saturate the top of the hydroton. Day 06 - Saturday - 08/15/20 - Total Days: 013 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: She looks stunted. leaves are still yellow. --- Solution strength: 514 PPMs --- PH: 5.6 --- Top fed for a minute. --- Not sure what to do at this point. Going to do another reservoir change soon. Hoping she lives until then. - [2145]: Looking pretty much the same. --- A bit of slime has returned. Since I've been diluting the nutrient solution, the enzyme ratio has dropped. So I guess this is expected. --- Also noticed that slime build up was on the air-stones. Never really checked the stones so not sure how long that has been there. Looks brown too, which can't be good. --- Going to do an H202 sterilization of the system (minus the net pot) tomorrow so did not add anything. --- Lowered the water level to below the net pot. --- Then top fed for a minute. Day 07 - Sunday - 08/16/20 - Total Days: 014 ----------------------------------- - [0900]: STERILIZATION DAY! --- Decided to skip today's night cycle for a deep clean. --- I'm hoping that skipping a night cycle won't be too stressful. --- Temporarily moved her to a new bucket. --- Used about a half of gallon of straight distilled water to flush out the net pot. --- Drained the system and wiped up all the brown sludge. Also removed the air stones and cleaned up all the goo. --- Filled the system with 2 gallons of distilled water and at least 30ml of food grade hydrogen peroxide (35% strength). --- Yea its a lot, but since I'm not going to sterilize the system overnight, I went with a really high doseage. Basically I kept adding until I started to see little bubbles start to form. --- Then I ran the water pump. - [0915]: Boiled the air stones in tap water for about 10 min. Then reconnected them to the airlines. --- I let the air stones and hose soak in the sterilization solution for about 5 minutes so the peroxide can absorb into the stones. Then ran the air stone to help mix and agitate the solution. --- Occasionally, I'd repeat the process of turning the air pump off for a few minutes to let the stones soak. - [1000]: Covered the top two row of holes of the net pot with some aluminum tape. Hopefully this solves the light leaking in through the hydroton. - [1200]: Used an old toothbrush and scrubbed the pump clean. Then drained the system. --- Refilled with more distilled water and peroxide. Again added a lot. --- Ran system again to sterilize even more. - [1530]: Drained the system and refilled with distilled water to rinse. --- Ran the system for a few minutes, then drained and rinsed again. --- Did this a few more times over about an hour. - [1630]: Added 4 gallons of fresh distilled water. --- Added 15ml Sensi Grow A --- Added 15ml Sensi Grow B --- Added 12ml of B-52 --- Added 16ml of Voodoo Juice --- Added 16ml Sensizym --- Solution strength was at 430 PPMs --- PH was at 5.6 --- I was going to add Hydroguard, but I think the bottle is expired. Since 2017 or 2018!? I think Hydroguard is good for up to 2 years from the date on the bottle or 6 months after opening. So not going to use from now on. I wonder if this could have contributed to the slime build up. --- Also removed the CaliMagic and Superthrive too. Going to only use AN products to eliminate the chance of incompatible nutrients. --- Placed her back in the bucket and top fed for a minute. --- Here's hoping for the best. Going to let it ride until morning! Please feel better! [END OF WEEK 02]

Sep 14: starting the ninth week of flowering and getting close to the finish. Buds are still putting out new pistils and definitely packing on weight. Also cool nights lately so there is some purple and blue colour starting. This is one of my favourite all time grows, and possibly the best. Sep 15: she is definitely packing on weight and if there was no support the outer manifold branches would be collapsing. Every single day I’m amazed at the daily progress on this plant. Definitely this year’s star. Sep 17: still going. New flowers are still forming so she’ll be going a bit longer. I want her done by the end of September if possible. Not that I’m complaining about more flower growth it’s just the sun gets weak and then it often gets too cold by mid October. I want ripe buds and not stragglers. Sep 18: I was thinking to start harvesting this weekend but the flowers are still blooming so I’ll put it off at least another week. Sep 20: some rain overnight the last few day. I have shaken the branches to get off excess water, but I found two small patches of bud rot (identified by dead leaves) that were removed and I then harvested the nearby bud. 49 g wet bud now hanging. These buds are huge and likely slow to dry thoroughly. #seedsman420growoff #seedsmanseeds

This week is looking good and the babies are coming along great, I'm loving the way pheno 1 is so symmetric, large and in charge! I started out this grow with a bit of a hick up because of the pandemic but I tell you one thing, foliar feeding saved my plants! I foliar feed my seedlings at around 200ppm I use some micro nutes, along with amino mix to foliar feed. The foliar feeding definitely makes the plants more robust, they end up feeling hard and strong! I Usually foliar feed until I flip to flower then no more!

Warmer temperature here also in the mountains now and plants are getting more sun and growing better. These are their height in cm, photos will show how they look and grow. I noticed that Do-Si-Dos auto is already showing signs of flowering, despite it is still short, but plants know better ^^ 2x ICE = 25 & 27 cm White Widow = 24 cm Cookies Gelato = 23 cm Do-Si-Dos Auto = 22 cm

Started LST with twine and removed several bad leaves. Waiting to see the flowers take off now.

7/11/25 CRAZY! she's finally flowering

That was a pleasure

Day 80 Harvesting was a bit of a trick with this one because I used to Trellis Nets but it went very smoothly no accidents and in the end I ended up with a staggeringly large amount of wet weight. My wet weights have a minimal amount of stock so that they more accurately represent the actual weight of the flower itself. In three days roughly I will be putting in the dry weight and then putting all the flowers into curing. welcome to Day 83 this will be my last update i have now done my final trim and got my dry weight 362.30 gram's !! off one plant. that's 12.77 ounce's i don't sell but my god if i didn't care about laws lol, For a plant thats no cured i will sat it tastes smooth AF and has a nice head high that i didn't really expect from her being that its not cured and didn't really look like she had tones of trichomes. This baby is going to be nice in a month. I'd like to thank everyone that followed this grow and asked questions as always my friends keep your stick on the ice

Semana 1 de fase de floración (sprouting day 21/04/202) 1) Radiante y magnifico el desarrollo de las cepas híbridas con ascendiente de genotipo Indica ( las tres cepas de Mr.Hide Seeds - Mr. Shiska USA / Mr. Jekyll Kush / Mr. California Pearl y la cepa híbrida con ratio 60/40 de Sativa/Indica). En comienzo de floración es muy claro que los trazos de Sativa en estas cepas híbridas, pese a que tengamos razones de genética (y sus fenotipos) marcados a un 70/30 (Ind./Sat.) ; 80/20 (Ind./Sat.) y 75/25 (Ind./Sat.) en acuerdo en este orden de Mr.Shiska USA // Mr. California Pearl // Mr. Jekyll Kush, Han revelado muchísimo de modo claro fenotipos de carácter Sativa y os explicó. En las tres cepas mencionadas resulta clarísima la naturaleza de hojas con puntas estrechas; internudos en regla cortas entre si y además la estructura arbustiva en forma general de abeto donde se diseña una cola central donde se desarrollará un cogollo central de dimensiones muy destacadas y después en áreas medianas a bajas, un conjunto de ramas secundarias donde se desarrollarán un número muy significativo de ramas donde el set de cogollos secundario se producirá sen limites mayores de estrés. Resulta pues muy claro que las tres cepas referidas sacando al porcentaje menor de fenotipo Sativa, enseñan en esta entrada a floración, la estructura característica de un "pino de navidad" y por sus esbozos resulta muy claro que tendremos la ya mencionada cola central que será de un grosor muy significativo y todos los cogollos secundarios en las áreas de base. Todos los cogollos serán muy significativos a lo tocante a un carácter muy resinoso y al los cogollos esféricos que son muy típicos de los de los fenotipos Sativa. Además la linea de terpenos  de los cogollos Sativa, acostumbran a tener un aroma muy pungente de pino; trazos dulzones y esse cierre terroso que es la imagen de marca de cepas Kush y mucho de las herencias OG. En contrapartida, la cuarta cepa por orden y por qué las tres que ya han sido mencionadas por pertenecer a un mismo banco - el Mr. Hide Seeds - en el caso lá Lockdown Kush de Sensei Seeds, siendo una muy particular genética híbrida 60/40 (Ind.//Sat.) , ha revelado una genética que destaca por la enorme anchura de su grupo de hojas primarias de base. La Lockdown Kush de Sensi es además una cepa con una característica muy definitiva, pongamos el enorme tamaño de su set de hojas primarias, la enorme anchura de las hojas; la disposición en cruce alternado de sus hojas primarias y además habrá que tener muy en cuenta el enorme cruce de un carácter increíblemente pungente de terpenos y de aromas tremendamente dulzones. La Lockdown Kush será una cepa a la cual es necesario volcar una atención extremada en el plan de defoliación, pues la anchura de hojas y el cruce de los tipos alternados de las mismas, tendrá una importancia muy destacada para que no haya áreas del grow que queden con una combinación nefasta de caracteres como sombra, calor y humedad elevada Esa área de hojas anchas cubriendo ramas secundarias - donde se dan condiciones para esbozos de cogllos- hay que estar muy al pendiente, pues con las condiciones de verano - temperatura y humedad elevada - si no se procede a un defoliado regular, puede que se den las condiciones para la expansión de patógenos de extrema gravedad. En eso, no es nunca demasiado llevar en cuenta el surgimiento de hongos como mildiu, rimam y botritis.  Además los patógenos a nivel radicular, temibles en estas fechas pasan por algunos de niveles de letalidad de grow enormes como el Fusarium ó el Pythium . No solo son patógenos que son críticos en su desarrollo sino que son muy agresivos en su expansión y además son muy rápidos en la forma con la cual eliminan a cualquier grow. Además y si no fuera lo bastante, por ejemplo en el caso del Fusarium, si después de su surgimiento no se procede a una desinfección generalizada del medio de grow y incluso de toda la casa, los esporos del Fusarium se quedan latentes y es muy fácil que pese a que tiremos macetas y medios de crecimiento, al año siguiente, los esporos vuelvan a tener condiciones para reproducción y en Fusarium vuelva a desarrollarse de modo muy rápido y agresivo. Nunca es demasiado poner los hermanos growers al dato y dar énfasis a todos que todos los años procedáis a la inoculación de mycorrhizas y sobretodo a lo que considero uno de los "escudos" de protección más efectivos en el grow canabico y que es el uso , SI Ó SI, de la Trichoderma harzanium y en todas las aplicaciones posibles - sea a nivel foliar; a nivel radicular, a nivel de las semillas y en combinaciones simbióticas con micorrizas; con bacterias de grow y con otros agentes. Ha sido en los últimos años muy importante la aportación de estos agentes fúngicos; bacteriológicos y otros, para que el control de plagas sea efectivo sin necesidad de cargar el grow sea con óleo de neem; de los insecticidas de la "vieja escuela" como las Cipemetrinas; ó algunos agentes que en mi opinión siendo muy efectivos en lo que se desea crean desequilíbrios muy profundos en lo que sea considerado los biomas como la bacteria Bacillus thuringiensis. Este agente de control de mariposas, pupas y orugas es la "solución final" a las mariposas, sus huevos, sus estágios de pupas y orugas, eliminando estos a una razón de casi 100%, pero para mi todo es muy sencillo, "la naturaleza le tiene ódio Al vacío" y que una bacteria te produzca extinción masiva de estos insectos, algo se altera en el bioma que causará a la postre, problemas en ciclos de vida de otras especies vegetales, animales, saprofitas ó otras y siempre le digo a los amigos que les apasiona la naturaleza y en concreto lo relativo a los grows canabicos. Eliminar las mariposas, orugas y pupas, tendrá un impacto biológico que no es posible cuantificar...o sea...es justo para que nuestros grows estén protegidos de plagas que se haga uso de algunos agentes que permitan controlar el desarrollo y la relación biológica inter-especies. O seu, no necesitamos seguramente que nuestro grow este prejudicado por una plaga que lo coloque en riesgo, pero para la naturaleza como un "todo", no es en mi opinión válido, que se use un agente como el Bacillus thuringiensis, que elimina 100% de las mariposas y sus estadios, de huevos a pupas y de ahí a orugas y de ahí a mariposas. En Biología, hay siempre que llevar en cuenta que las mariposas/orugas tienen una función y que si sacamos de un "exterminador total" como el Bacillus thuringiensis, estaremos creando un "inbalance" a nivel de bioma y con ello, tendremos quizás en poco tiempo, desequilíbrios en la cadena alimentar; en las bacterias, nematodos y otros seres vivientes, que necesitan de las mariposas/orugas para su ciclo y que en la naturaleza si como "humanos" y a "nuestra utilidad*, usamos una bacteria para eliminar las orugas/mariposas que nos comen las hojas del grow...la naturaleza y su plan es perfecto... Por algún motivo, hay necesidad de que puedan haber orugas y mariposas, que coman hojas de la Cannabis spp. (sin con ello haber un descontrol y una amenaza a nuestra intención). Por ejemplo, las mariposas tienen funciones de polinización y la acción de las orugas, tiene desde hace milenios, función de estimulación por estrés, lo que ha llevado a perfeccionar terpenos y incluso la estructura de producción de moléculas como el THC ∆-9. O sea que el estrés que las mariposas y orugas inducen, con su ciclo de alimentación, por ejemplo en el ciclo de grow de cannabis, es de importancia trancendiente a la evolución de la cannabis. Imaginemos pues que desde el día 1 de la Cannabis spp., se hubiera empezado a cargar el suelos y hojas de la cannabis con el Bacillus thuringiensis, para que las orugas y mariposas no comiesen la Cannabis...como tendríamos mariposas que hiciesen polinización? Como podria  la cannabis por el estrés, apurar sus canabinóides y sus terpenos? Por eso y como os digo, para mí, las "soluciones finales" como el Bacillus thuringiensis, son un campo muy peligroso y es por antonomasia, contrariar la naturaleza en su perfección. Si la idea es tener un grow "perfecto", el "perfecto" es en mi opinión, especies que se interrelacionan, que "tiran" unas de otras y donde el principio de simbiosis se asegure...la cannabis necesita de orugas que coman de si, pues las orugas ganan con esa relación biológica en alimento; en desarrollo de mariposas que harán la polinización de la cannabis proporcionando variabilidad genética y la alimentación de las orugas y mariposas conllevará a la respuesta química de la planta, apurando canabinóides, aumento de tasas de estos y creando desarrollo de terpenos que serán fundamentales para efectos de "entourage" que mejorarán el producto final. 2) En entrada de floración hay que destacar la buenísima pegada de crecimiento a cada semana. Este paso de vegetativo a floración con el cambio a 12/12 en el ciclo lumínico de encendido a oscuro, ha sido programado tomando en cuenta que el 24 de abril (día del cambio de ciclo lumínico) ha sido coincidente con luna nueva (ciclo lunar donde el estrés es menor y donde los cambios sufren un impacto menor). Ha sido muy importante también estar "al dato" con el agua en el sistema, pues en macetas de 9 litros, si se hace fácil aportar exceso de agua, las características de los airpots también tienen una tendencia de un secado de sustrato más rápido y con ello hay que tener presente que los riegos tendrán que hacerse según necesidad. En esta semana, como medida de rectificación creí necesario de hacer entre riegos, aspersiones foliares sacando a uso elementos que en este comienzo de floración son indispensables. Pese a que el Boost de Hesi no sea un orgánico, en regla cuando usado en simultáneo como aspersión foliar con el Big One de Top Crop; el C4 de Mills; el Ultra MG de Gold Label y además el Organic Bloom de B.A.C. . Así que disfrutad, hermanos y la próxima semana y entrada, que sea claro para vosotros el estupendo trabajo que está en desarrollo y muy claro tengo que estamos en la antepara de una temporada magnífica. 420 Forever y que el verde sea sempre nuestro corazón. Abrazo, Tom

Week 10 total life Week 5 flowering The stretching stopped and the energy is spent on bud formation. Fertilizer. Plagron Boom 5 ml, power bud 1 ml and green sensation 1 ml Stopped the vita race this week. Happy with the way it's building up it's bud density. leafs and flowers are turning purple and the resin production is great......4 weeks to go...can't wait 😶‍🌫️

Great week a lot of new growth.. looks like this will be a rather large plants and its producing a lot of bud sites thanks to the training.. still no sign of flower but not worried hoping she will stretch some more.. but overall throughly impressed with the genetics
