9/28 Day 24. Raised air pumps above the water line using two 5 gal buckets. Removed the inline air backflow valve and this increased aeration greatly!
- Feeding day. Red TDS 850. EC 1.8 / Blue TDS 800. EC 1.7 / Yellow TDS 785. EC 1.6 / 10ml CalMag, 10ml Micro, 5ml Grow, 5ml Bloom, 2ml UC Roots. Will check TDS & EC through the week as they are starting to drink up the water.
- LST started today. I will be adjusting them daily to pull off shoot branches in different directions.
9/30 Day 26. Added water for the first time. Used purified drinking water from the grocery store (Ph 7.45 TDS 95 EC .2) and PH'd it down to 5.9
10/1 Day 27. Readjusted the LST wires and added some new ones on the stems that can now be pulled in different directions. Red suffered a break on the main stem that went 1/2 through the stalk. I decided to use the LST wire to push it back together so that it can heal. I will still train the other shoots in different directions and let the main stem just do it's thing. Blue and Yellow pulled in new directions to open up the middle and spread out the stems.
- I defoliated (light amount) some of the 3 leaf blades that were touching the container lids, and any larger 5 leaf blades that were blocking light to any new shoots with new stem growth and potential bud sites. I wanted to allow the air flow at the lower section of the plant.
10/2 Day 28. Everyone is bouncing back from the LST. Keeping a close eye on Red and the injury healing. I've decided to do a 1/2 of a weekly feed every 4 days instead of a mass feeding once a week. I will test the TDS and EC, see what the plants are telling me before I feed of course.
(All values before feeding)
- Red PH 5.98 TDS 720 EC 1.512
- Blue PH 6.17 TDS 728 EC 1.544 / Will add .25 PH down and re-test all in an hour after the feed to check PH values.
- Yellow PH 5.93 TDS 708 EC 1.497
Feeding: 5ml CalMag, 5ml Micro, 4 ml Gro, 2ml Bloom, 2ml UC Root Guard.
Post Feed values:
- Red PH 5.78 TDS 808 EC 1.695
- Blue PH 5.90 TDS 846 EC 1.796
- Yellow PH 5.73 TDS 803 EC 1.700
Lessons learned week 4.
1. Be a little more gentle on LST.
2. Mark the water sight gauge at each 1 gallon increment so that I can track water replenishment levels.
3. Started a spreadsheet to monitor feeding value changes.

Had to harvest the lower buds because of aphids... Rest looks great though.
Will harvest this week

Given 5 years (or 15 grows) usage time translates to around 3,17€ per grow in materials.
Variable costs:
-Seed: 10€
-Soil: 6€
-Fertilizer: 3,50€
-Power (100 days 20h/day): ~28,8€ (exact figure after harvest)
-Total variable costs: ~48,3€
-Total costs per grow: ~51,47€

Easy harvest. Chopped and hung em down full.
After curing 3 weeks this stuff is probably my best grow. Super duper mega dense nugs, and I have to say the taste is amazing compared to my other grows, so I will have to try flushing again..
Drying at 18c @ ~60rh and hoping to get ~12 days or so
Yield was 24.9oz dried

contento con el resultado, se aumenta la dosis de NPK a 14ml/L.
alejé un poco el foco para que se espigue más rápido.
1/3 trasplante definitivo a maceta de 18L.
en unos 15 dias la paso a flora

was a solid week. all green, all happy. the birthday cake auto seems to be coming around. so today i set the lights to 12 12 .. lets see how the flower. ive done all what i can in ability and space to set them up i hope. i find mixing nutrients in calcium water (thicker density, almost milk,) produces a quicker visible result in the plants and also you seem to get less variation in how they take the days feed. Happy New year to you all.

Hi my friends!
Thank you all for such amazing support on this sweet journey 🙏✌️💚
I'm updating and uploading daily so if week not completed yet. Please revisit to see full week content.
So far everything is going great. Girls are are stretching nicely approx 2cm per 24h. It's looking that will cover entire scrog net with these 2 beauties. Simple plan for the week. Training on the net and maybe selective defoliation on week end.
Week updates:
20-26 Nov.
20/11 day 43
Girls adapting well to net😁
21/11 day 44
First watering for this week.
2.5 ltr each pot. Runoff approx 200-300ml from each. Runoff Ph Xena 5.9 Athena 6.0.
23/11 day 46
It's seems that they stretched at least an inch overnight 😁 absolutely love my 🍌💜👊 girls.
25/11 day 48
Second watering for this week. Approx. 3L each 🤤 runoff 150-200ml.
26/11 day 49
Athena was stretching so much that decided for sort of heavier selective defoliation and cleared good bit under the net. Xena is at the same stage of flowering as sister but she is still much smaller, branches are shorter and tinner, will wait bit longer before go any heavier on her. Was able to nicely relocate longer branches of Athena all over the net.
It's the end of this amazing week 😁
Thank you all for stopping by and for such amazing support on this bananas ride 🍌💜👊
Love you all brothers and sisters 💚💚💚

This week I made the decision to remove the ScrOG net because the plant has stunted growing and the leaves were droopy before and after watering . Given the fact she is an indica dominant strain, my approach to training wasn't the best.
Also the light intensity has been adjusted to PPFD level of 700. The light schedule is 18/6, so the DLI is about 45, which is the recommended maximum for autoflowers. I will keep my eyes on her, how is she will react.

This has properly been the most resilient plant yet I have dealt with. So sticky and smelly... HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! 🤤

Debut de semaine 6
Arrosage a l enhancer .
L odeur se fait plus présente
Les differents sites floraux se couvrent de trichromes et commencent a gonfler de jours en jours certaines filles commencent une sénescence précoce. J aurais du ajouter 1 ou 2 G de biobloom a la troisieme semaine de floraison. Ayant des clones des differenets filles je saurais lors d un prochain run comment tirer le meilleur et agir pour chacune d entre

Credo che sta andando abbastanza bene, le 2 jack 47 auto hanno avuto un problema di mancanza nutrimenti. Forse ho risolto.👍☃️😉

Hello friends,
All was almost good,
I've found insect several days ago,
I'm trying to found an issue.

See you next week, hope insect will be eradicated,
Have a good smoke and grow.

[ Information ]
For all information on this grow, including strain and room details, please see the first week of veg.
[ Updates ]
Day 10 - Watered today, 1.2ec feeding of mainly organics (Fulvic/Humic, Kelp, Molasses, Big Bloom) with runoff. 6.8ph. Group one is stretching much harder due to plant density, I will be adding a net soon.
Day 13 - Watered today with the nutrients listed for this week. 2.2ec at 6.5ph. 80gals total. Added a small dose of Open Sesame for the first time today as bud sites are starting to form on all plants. Added a net to Group 1 yesterday, I will add the nets for Group 2 in a couple days. Group 1 plants are 38-40 inches, group 2 plants are 32-34 inches. I may adjust net height, this isn't normally how I run a cycle; I'm trying a few different things side-by-side. The "one plant per square foot of canopy" group has consistently shown that even with a short veg period there is far too many wasted growth nodes on the sides of the canopy. The plants around the edge tend to branch out instead of up, as they're naturally trying to find sunlight. My last attempt at using these side branches with heavy topping of the middle nodes resulted in a higher yield, as expected as the light footprint was 5x5 instead of 4x4, which defeats the purpose of "one plant per square foot of canopy" anyways. A better test would have been to stunt the growth of all middle nodes enough to weave the side branches into the main canopy, though this seems to be a waste of time without much gain. I'm much happier with Group 2 which has 1 plant per 2 square feet of canopy space. While it also has side branching, the difference in height at the canopy level of the sides and middles are not nearly as different as Group 1, which means a more even light distribution without the need of a net. As overgrown as the room is getting, they still have 7-8 days before they're defoliated a final time.

The grow cycle was super, super easy. The summer was shitty as HELL. but it still produced really good buds. I don’t have a picture with flash but its sticky and shiny like a diamond!! The other plant sadly got attacked by spider mites so i had to kill it :/
