Welcome back✊ Outdoor season is finally showing the labours of love with buds a plenty. Can you feel the excitement? 🙌 Big time aromas in the garden this week are really quite something.👌 Everything from bananas and grapes to sweet & sour citrus and even dirty diaper. What? Yup that's right...My Blue Fire's smell like 💩 just like the clone mother and she's pure FIRE!!! I've grown this strain indoors but this is my first time growing it outside so I'm really looking forward to the outcome. 👍 Sept.14 the girls are putting on some serious weight. Colas are fattening up nicely but with that extra weight I’ve had to add more support and netting. 💪 Sept.15 last night temps got down to 8 celsius (46F) and today's high was 20 (68F). It's supposed to get even colder by the weekend followed by more average temps next week. Please God No Frost.🙏 Sept.16 Warmest day of the week at 25 celsius although very hazy probably due to the wildfires out west. Prayers for y'all out there. 🙏 The garden is looking amazing today with buds fattening up everywhere. Strawberry Banana #1 in front of the wall is furthest behind as far as bud development but is the tallest of the bunch at over 10 feet.👆 Bless that momma👏 Sept. 17 and just my luck Trainwreck #1 has a bit of bud rot on the 2 big main colas.😠 Damn I babied that girl and kept her dry her entire life. WTF Sucks having to harvest her early but shit happens so the 2 colas got chopped this morning and are hanging to dry. On the bright side, one of the colas wet weight was almost 11 ounces. Sept. 18 & 19 overnight temps got down to 4°C luckily no frost. Sept. 20 and most of the potted girls fan leaves are starting to yellow. Good sign that they are using up their last bit of nutrients from the leaves themselves. I’m guessing 1 or 2 more weeks and my first round of girls will be getting no more nutrients and starting their final flush. Trainwreck and Blue Fire are the furthest along while the wall girls are a couple weeks behind especially Strawberry Banana. That’s it for now Til next time... Be well and see ya soon

Photos take a ton of time, and really leaning into the autos now. I've harvested two auto flower grows in the time it took to flower these girls. overall the end result was really good, but not sure if it's worth all the extra time and resources. Time will tell when the buds cure up! Really loved both of these phenos!

She is officially on the 6th week now and here was how week 5 went! It was the most dramatic week so far, really started to fill out now and even the popcorn buds and starting to get some weight too. Now it’s just waiting for her to finish swelling then hopefully we will see her nearly ripened by end of next week! Smells fab! I can understand where the cookie idea comes from, my room smells like I have a warm batch of a variety of biscuits and cookies fresh out the oven cooling off!
Fat Bannana!

16set Mainline - First Ever Grow & Daily Progressives c_0
All feeds with nutes use either a whole ratio or combination of "Veg Mix" and "Bloom Mix"concentrates DILUTED in water until a total ppm of add in is reached using a (Total Dissolved Solids)TDS Meter measured in PPM (parts per million). The "Veg Mix" concentrate will eventually be added in smaller ratios and "Bloom Mix" concentrate what will eventually replace the "Veg Mix" concentrate entirely with the ppm and ratios listed when I feed. Veg mix recipe is on week 3. Bloom Mix recipe is on week 5. Day 56 Took some glamor pics with black background - not really for vanity (although there's a little) but for contrast. I see more of the lockout issue better in the pics this way. - on that note, the ph seems to be working as it's been two days since defoliation and knitting needle ph correction, and the progression is way slower than it was on the last leaves at 3rd day of identifying. So with that, room VPD of 1.07kpa seems stable enough with temps about 76F/65%RH/33%ILV I released the binds today to let her grow without them until they crowd each other too much and I need to restrain - so in a couple of days at max. Day 62 Transfer day. Although at first I didnt think I would be able to until Saturday, I got pots and plant saucers today, so I ended up going ahead and doing it. Started by calibrating/testing both meters. Double checked the soil mix from yesterday as the last time I used wood ash the ph rose the day after... however this time it was fully mixed to I wanted to know if there would be a higher ph - it was the same as yesterady - 5 reading avg of about 6.35 - the slurry of 1:1 soil and 7.7 ph water was tested at 6.3 also. Made about .75 gallon of 75/25 veg/bloom juice water at 500ppm feed water. Tried to ph read the soil in the pot and seen it go from 6.6 down to 6.35 (took video) in the dry soil, so I decided to use the 6.35 new soil reading and ph balanced the feed to that. Used the needles since it was 7 days since the last feed and I am using such a small amount. Poured over needles in 8 places and pulled each out to let water down. the vacuum pulls the water down when I lift the needles. Then I mixed 5tsp of Dynomyco to the 5 gallons of new soil and mixed really good. I placed a layer of perlite on the bottom of the 10 gallon pot and then layered in some soil. Then with the help of my wife we pulled the plant out of the pot and placed it in the 10 gallon. I place back in the tent and added about a quart of plain de-chlorinated water evenly over the new and older soil to help bind them. I reduced lights by 100ppfd to have about 505 and 500 at center colas and 430 lowest on outer ring with most at 450 and 470 highest. Soil to light is 35 inches and the plant is about 14 inches so about 21 inches from leaves to lights. I left the ring off today and will rebind as needed tomorrow after she rests. Today the leaves look wilted and limp. Also reduced humidity to 60% so 58 to 65% should be the range and the temps are 73F with the lights lower. PPFD was higher with the new growth - unbound and tucked in for better cola/light position, it reads 570 to 580 on outer colas and 590 at both center branches Day 57 Getting 1 more day out of free range growth before I tie her back against a ring. So in that time I decided to take a few vanity pics. Overall the ph block seems to have slowed or stopped and she's back to growing again. Will be thinking about flip at the end of this week or so. VPD same stats 76F/65%RH/33%ILV - ppfd right at max so I'll likely tie her off tomorrow. 605 600 in center and 580 to 590 at the outer ring. Day 58 VPD stats mostly steady again today - 76F/65%RH/33%ILV - ppfd was checked after LST, measured 600 at each center cola and the outer ring measured between 550 and 590 most at 580 So as I said, I did LST today to bind her more out while the 4 center 4 colas fill the middle. I had to bind to the pot base instead of the ring as the colas are still a little short to reach for binds at the ring just yet. There's a lot of space to fill and a few (about half) of the out colas are sideways for now. Had a break at the center cola when I tried to pull it back for bind. I knew to hold the branch at the node but forgot to do it here and heard a "snap" ... taped the crack and moved on - will monitor obviously Day 59 Did more light LST to ensure the branches are growing where I want. PPFD was mostly the same as yesterday only now there are more colas around 560 than 580 on the outer ring with the center colas at 610 and 590 (front cola was tied down to spread more away from the ring and fill center better. vpd same as past week or so 76F/65%RH/33%ILV Last feed was on day 54 and the soil still seems damp so I will check again tomorrow for the next day. (Day 61) The broken branch doesnt seem to have affected either side of the split as both sides seem to have grown a little with little to no wilt or drooping leaves. Im hoping it heals okay and doesnt delay flip to recover more; still monitoring. Day 60 Did some light LST today by releasing the lower binds to the pot and attached as couple to the outer ring now. So far I only have to bind a few as most are already holding where i want them to. Took the tape off the split and seen I didnt seel the gap closed when I taped it so now Im considering a drop of super glue to bind the branch back in hopes it grows onto the other side again. If not at least it would be more secure than it is now. And since it's a main split for 4 colas, I dont want too restrict it by binding at the split and potentially cutting off the nutrient pathways. ppfd after LST was 610 and 600 after more LST and the outer ring is still ranging 550 to 580 with more at 560 now. VPD same as I havent messing with any of the variables. 76F/65%RH/33%ILV Soil is a bit dry and it's been 5 days since the last feed flush, so I have about 3 gallons of tap burning of chlorine now for a feed tomorrow morning. Might still update again later if I find superglue... found some superglue - tried to take pictures but I cant hold, squeeze the applicator, and film with just two hands. So the idea gets through, I did both sides. On a side note I discovered a root popping out of the soil from the top. Covered it up but wasn't sure if I should be concerned. Day 61 VPD same as it's been for most of the last week - 74F/65%RH/33%ILV PPFD was recorded after I turn the plant a quarter turn for the smaller colas struggling to get over he ring's edge to have more light. Most colas at 580 with a couple at 600 and a couple more at 550 - center colas are hitting 615 and 620, but I have plancs to reduce in the next couple of days now On that note, the root growing out of the top tells me that she's hungry and needs more root space, even if that means growing through the top of the soil. So I plan to transplant to a 10 gallon and flip after the recovery. After reviewing more of NugBucket's journal I realized this is why he moves them when growing 16 colas. New pots should be here Friday so I should be able do it on Saturday. So I prepped soil (using more Happy frog with mycorrhizal fungi already growing in it for a few weeks) with de-chlorinated tap water Started by ph testing the soil and the water (4 readings on soil at 5.03 avg) - added about 1/2 cup total of wood ash to bring up the ph , mixed and tested again - added water at (about 7.7 ph) and tested again... last 5 readings in soil was 6.24,6.3,6.35,6.37,6.38 avg of 6.328 - covered and let rest until needed. Since I plan to transplant in a few days I felt it would be best to 'lightly' feed tomorrow, again on transplant day, and again 2 to 3 days later. Since my wife was taking pics at this time, I could only find this one to show the roots growing into the perlite then we planted it in the bigger pot. -------- (Day 62 root base picture from above) I have a hypothesis that says these are so short because I intentionally tried not to move the plant without the base stand to keep it from grinding these up and allowed them to grow in the last 2 weeks. This is that test picture/results. I like the idea of better/more drainage, but thinking I am doing more harm each time I hear those gravel pieces crunch as it cuts those and forces the plant to look somewhere else for root space. Notice how the small root lines have no finer pieces or laterals grow out from these - I believe that is because they are so new in growth and that the perlite chewed up the smaller laterals even with little to no movement over the last two weeks I would like to see a root ball experiment that exposed the roots throughout the grow but for now I can see these roots do grow into the base perlite and need to be handled carefully if you want them to grow more freely or with a standard pot size. As you can see Im not root bound but my plant thinks it is and is growing roots out the top.

Hi Guys, Week 9 of flowering. I've harvested usually in week 8 but I am holding back this time and really let her do her thing until I see more Amber Tris. Right now it's mostly milky and maybe 5% amber only so a few more days to go. ***Mid-week update*** Day 3 of Week 9 of flower - I think they are ready to be cut down very soon. So I went in today and did a quick defoliage. Am waiting for the new moon to come in a day 6 of wk 9 so 3 more days then they are coming down. Am going to flush on the 5th day wk9. That's all for now. Happy Growing. BM 4TweentY
Fast Flowering Version A exterior ☀️
📆 Semana 6: Renacer tras la prueba 🌱 La FFA muestra su resiliencia. Con el retorno del riego y los nutrientes, los brotes nuevos asoman con vigor, y el verde recupera su intensidad día a día. 🌿 Las hojas más afectadas van cediendo espacio a un follaje joven y sano, mientras la estructura general se reafirma, lista para el siguiente empuje vegetativo. Las raíces, fortalecidas por la prueba anterior, trabajan con más eficiencia, absorbiendo cada gota y cada rayo de sol. El clima acompaña con días largos y templados, favoreciendo un desarrollo constante. 🌞 Pequeñas podas de limpieza pueden ayudar a redirigir la energía a los puntos de crecimiento más prometedores. ✂️ La planta ha pasado la tormenta y ahora avanza con renovada fuerza. ¡Seguimos creciendo fuerte! 💪
GG#4 round 2!
Start of week 3 of flowering. This GG#4 girl is hungry! She's needing more feeding each week, now up to 6 liters per feeding. Bud sites are developing nicely, added B52 to the feed this week too. She's yellowed more than her sisters over the course of the week, hopefully the extra feed will stop that from spreading further.

Die letzten Tage... Für die 3 geht es nun deutlich Richtung Ende. Trichome sind alle Trüb und vereinzelt sind schon Ember zu sehen (vor allem bei der mittleren). Denke mal bis Ende nächster Woche sind sie dann soweit. 🥀 Geruch ist bei 2 identisch (mitte/rechts). Die linke ist etwas süßer/Cremiger ist als die andren beiden und riecht eher nach Mandarine/Orange. Ansonsten süß/cremig mit etwas Gas und etwas säuerlich mit leichten Zitrusnoten😜😍😍😍

***Sponsored Grow*** = Medic || https://medicgrow.com || Grow = ***Sponsored Grow*** Ok, so bigger news this week, I got rid of one of the plants in the tent as it was an auto vs fast flower :/ and I performed a bunch of LST and some Defoliation to all the plants. This plant was not to bad in terms of lst needs and defoliating needs as much as the other ones. This will be the last week they are in Veg and switching to flower cycle next week with a 12/12 photoperiod. I was going to try a 13/11 but I wanted to test out the automatic light functions on the Medic Grows Minisun-2, So this will be relieved next week. Been having issues with PH in the medium again and some nutrient uptake. I am thinking I will switch to another brand I have to use up, trip tonic from my last grow on the balcony. Its a bit more complex and not as easy as mix into water and feed but I think its going to help me solve a lot of the issues I am getting. Given this update is a few days late some of these pics are not from today. the clones in the photos above are from the beginning of the week when I potted them up. They have not done well at all and may not make it. can only hope for the next few weeks they pull through. Till next week. ***Sponsored Grow*** Official Website: https://medicgrow.com/ + https://www.kannabia.com/en Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/medicgrowled + https://www.facebook.com/kannabiaseed/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/medicgrow + https://twitter.com/kannabiaseeds Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/medicgrow420/ + https://www.instagram.com/kannabiaseedsint YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNmiY4F9z94u-8eGj7R1CSQ + https://www.youtube.com/c/KannabiaSeedCompany Growdiaries: https://growdiaries.com/grower/medicgrowled https://growdiaries.com/grow-lights/medic-grow + https://growdiaries.com/grower/kannabia https://growdiaries.com/seedbank/kannabia
First 🌱💚
DAY 1 Tri’s on several buds checked. (Dont have proper microscope to transfer images to phone with, yet) Top buds all milky with a couple amber, lower buds milky with significantly more amber spread, for some reason. Given my schedule i Will harvest her Tomorrow just before lights on, with green light, Last defol done before lights out today, lights been taken down, plant base zip tied with coat hanger, Tent prepared for drying Now its just cut her down. Going to be awkward handling her alone though, she’s kind of Big and wide 😅 Wish me luck. Day 2 💃🕺?? No going back now 👌⭐️ Day 8 Sample jarred to measure moisture content. Sample ended up at 72% after 5 hrs. A bit of hay smell to. Smelled awesome when put in, so i do hope the sample returns to that State 😅 But I am prepared to throw it away of anything funny shows up. Conclusion: too Early. But weather outside is warm and humid my ac and Dehu are struggling to keep things down. Day 9 Tried to jar sample from Yesterday sat 60% Decides to trim and jar the rest. 1 jar at 60% 1 jar at 62% What an adventure. Will be looking forward to light it up in 4-8 weeks Next one: Pineapple chunk from barney’s 🌱💚

Hello. This the end of week 5 and the beginning of week 6 of veg. Did a little trimming on these plants last week. Getting the training going. Will be using a SCRoG method on them in the greenhouse this summer. So I want them to spread out. I topped all of them and took off 2 large fan leaves per plant, that were blocking the under branches, that were trying to push up through them. I've lowered the light to about 20 inches away, and turned it up to about 45%. So the new branches are getting lots of light. They are getting just about full strength nutrient when I water them now. Next watering will be just water though. I do 2 feedings and then a watering and they are doing good. Every couple of days I spray some mixed peppermint essential oil around in here to help keep the pest away. Pest hate the peppermint smell. I've photographed a new underground comic book for your enjoyment. It's Weirdo #15 printed in 1993. Drawn by underground artist from around southern California and printed by Rip Off press. Yes... there's some weird stuff in them comics. OK. Be Cool. Chuck.

Ginger Nut Cookies & Aussie Music Videos Week 16 Harvest 17 th April 2020 This Entire feminised seed making and growing project was a very good learning experience for me. Right from the very start, when I successfully got a Cutting ,taken from a Barneys Farm Red diesel female plant to produce feminised pollen after treating it with a silver thiosulfate solution. I then used it to pollinate a Fastbuds Girl scout cookies auto plant and let it grow to maturity. This only produced 3 viable seeds one of which is the subject of this Diary. I made up the name "Ginger nut cookies" after a variety of cookies we have here in Australia that are made with ginger. They are the same colour as the distinct red hairs on the red diesel buds. And would you believe those same vivid red hairs were passed on to this plant so I wasn't too far off the mark with the strain name. Her flavour however is nothing like red diesel or girl scout cookies and infact as taken on a smell and aroma all of it's own. She has a lovely tropical fruit like taste and the smell is a bit like fruit yoghurt. It has an unreal after taste on the exhale and the lingering second hand smoke smells very sweet and enticing. She has a pretty well balanced high too not as potent as the GSC nor as energenic as the red diesel but just a pleasant mix of the two. It was a very easy to grow and undemanding plant that didn't seem to require a lot of extra feeding other than the 100% organic nutrients that were within the soil and a few things like compost teas etc. The other element of this diary was of course the weekly Aussie music videos That I provided the links for and put up a little video clip preview of each Artists song. Week 1 Dance Monkey Week 2 Gotye Week 3 AC/DC Week 4 INXS Week 5 Dire straits Week 6 Yothu yindi and Midnight oil Week 7 Divinyls Week 8 Was Request week where I asked growers to pick and because only 3 growers put in a request I decided to choose all three which were Kylie Minogue , Flume & Airbourne Week 9 Paul Kelly Week 10 Daddy Cool Week 11 Cold chisel Week 12 Jimmy Barnes Week 13 The Angels Week 14 Crowded House Hoodoo gurus Mental as Anything Week 15 Empire of the sun Big Pig , Silverchair , Peking duk Grinspoon , Hilltop hoods and the White stripes And Finally for the last lot of music videos I have chosen another multi list bonanza of Aussie Music with the artist/s name and Youtube link below. So in no particular order here are my last choices for this Diary its been a fun grow with a steep learning curve.

12/3 Week 10 Brandy being harvested in the AM Layla and Maggie got a PK 0-10-7 booster in 6.5 water @1 gal each still plenty of nuets in the pot just getting them all I can 12/4 Harvested Brandy numbers and pics also be in harvest week when others are done. Not bad for a little plant we did not give much hope of producing. Trics look good - Into the dry box as the tent is full. 206 Grams Wet *****UPDATE***** 12/8 78g dry *****UPDATE***** 12/10 tested 0.5g after decarb and yep all we could have wanted, sativa-ish with good legs. More later 12/5 Fed Maggie and Layla 1 gal each at 6.5PH 12.5ml/gal Soul Peak PK booster, foliar of full cal-mag at lights out just to be sure. Later Just as I hoped it sparked new hair growth, they standing up nice and pretty New plants in tent Quick foliar feed on Maggie, Cal-Mag 1 ml/qt 12/7 Last defoliation on Layla and Maggie just taking off the excess baggage and opening the air and light paths. Layla is definitely ripening but I think one more dose of PK perhaps if not just water. Decide tomorrow Maggie still aggressively building buds so she is absolutely getting more PK, remember there is Dr Earth in the pot so its not like she is being starved for other nuets. I think Maggie, being a sativa pheno, may go another two weeks. Layla has to stay until the drying tent is empty, not using the boxes unless I must. 12/8 0.75 gal ea @6.4 Peak PK 12.5ml/gal 12/10 Looking good still finishing off pics at lights out Tried to fix the nuet list , anything I dont use any longer or dry put to 0.01 dose. Want to be able to say some things about some of this stuff at harvest.
