10/15 Same stuff, just keeping it stable is all I'm trying to do. Update 10/18 - Heat was ridiculous this week, had to turn one or more light features off, for example, turned off the HPS -AND- the LED circuit on the Phlizon on the hottest day because inside the tent it was like 91 degrees F. Yeah it may not be the perfect environment, but look at the growth from the 15th til today. Major flowering happening, unless I am tripping. I see a lot more healthy growth now, which in my opinion means the transplant idea was SO WORTH IT. I see a lot of crystals forming now and the tops the leaves are turning more white that I could hav imagined -- with two more weeks at least to go, I think I may have some bomb flowers if I dont fuck anything up. Northern light to the left in video has more to go and is not as far along as the Vanilla Frosting. 10/20 Added some new nutes for the last two weeks of flower, bubbling like a madman wanting this grow to finish. White Widow (three plants outdoors) will probably finish in the tent, its just really in stasis but it is getting some frosting of its own. BTW when I smelled the flowers yesterday I was blown away by how awesome they smell, like seriously boutique top shelf aromas going on, this is my first grow indoors and really the first time I have been able to give the attention and care these babies need. I have learned SO much. Especially about stuff I was clueless about before. Like which lights are good. What tent size to get. Ph, nutes, watering, relative humidity, cloning... all new stuff. I have become a better gardener as a result and my 200 sq ft community garden plot is doing way better and I expect next year to be bonkers because I really get the whole ecosystem thing now and how mycorrhizae helps everything. This video helped me a ton: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ID9rE5JewVg&ab_channel=ApogeeInstrumentsInc. and this one too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jq_wl8XRUK4&ab_channel=GrowersNetwork Also, really check out Phlizon lights (CREE COB) if your tent can handle the heat. I am already planning my next grow, and I am going high CDB autos... solomatic and fast eddy.

Transplant into 1 gallon plastic pot mycorrhizae for less transplant shock with coco coir had to buffer a brick for 18 hours submerged in calcium after couple days went organic for less of a headache of wasting money on nutrients to make it simple and effective control system 1 plant is showing deficiency working on bring it back to optimal used compost tea with silica , fish fertilizer Neptune , soil recharge every week ph to 5.8-6.0 1 gallon 1 cup water per plant bigger plants get 2 cups want less run off after 2 week to get the calcium out from the buffer solution added 2-84 geia green and 4-4-4 1 tsp per plant of each dry amendment water every day so coco doesn’t get dry roots are healthy on the bottom of gallon pot you see new growth soon thinking of transplanting for better results during flowing stage currently photo and auto soon cross breed some of them during flower for new future projects ,

Ok these auto girls have been through a lot the past few weeks: three different nutrient lines, multiple flushes, LST, a bit of supercropping. All from a newbies first grow. So at this point I think it's safe to say, these AK48 girls are pretty bad ass. Coming near the end of my 4th week and they are flowering! I can not believe I've made it this far. They look great, growing daily, and make me smile every single day. I was having a lot of nutrient issues up until I received my sample set of Oregon's Only line. Holy crap y'all my plants look great with this stuff! This line just feels more intuitive for me. I had used the GO box nutes, then some Fox Farm nutes so I know I needed to flush before using the OO nutes. It worked out. I just went for It and used the recommended full strength. Running my pH at 6.3-6.5 flowering in coco coir/perlite. I feel there needs to be a slave to the plant song? Because that's what I've willingly become. I had shoulder surgery this week and not feeling super hot, kinda depressed. But looking forward to taking care of these girls each day has really put me in a good mood. Since my shoulder is out of commission I've enlisted my daughter's help with helping me with watering, etc I water with full nutes when the fabric pots feel light. Obligatory doggo pic :) Any and all suggestions, tips, critics are welcome.

Some nute burn but I’m not worried, very very minor and she seems happy regardless. Branches are starting to get heavy and really develop amazing buds.

Week 4 of flowering 3 plants ran out of Cal. The Super Skunk are not like usual, there’s a lot of Sativa in the phenotypes. White Gorilla Haze are making small buds. Banana Kush are doing very well except the one with deficiency. Strawberry Kush are doing well except the one out of Cal. Girl Scout Cookies are doing well. Wedding Cheesecake are doing well. Reducing the Humidity and turned on the Dehumidifier. Adding 2 small fans blowing under the canopy. Switching to bloom nutrients, feeding is between 1000ppm to 1100ppm once a week. (I’m looking for a job in the Cannabis industry as Master Grower, Mineralogist, Quality Control)

Day 64 really finishing up nicely, she is very thick The ripening blend is doing its job, the leafs are starting their fade a bit This strain loves DWC, super fast growth and development, thanks @Fast_Buds Day 65 smooth and steady, she is up to drinking 6L a day now buds are covered in trichomes Day 66 trichomes are looking 90% white all over the side buds continues to amaze me daily, with the 6L drinking the buds are swelling up, i see a few pistils tips starting to turn pink keeping the temps and the humidity low, 40% humidity Day 67 temps low, 21, 40% humidity is causing massive terpene development, the buds are pouring out resin captured a photo while lights were off Day 68 She is finishing up nicely, changed the DWC for fresh ripening blend, this will be the last pool for the lady The pistils are about 30% brown, trichomes are all white all over. Maybe 2-3 days left. Day 69 The buds are maturing fast, we are in the harvest window. The colas are rock solid, and they are the most sticky ive ever grown from autoflower. Pistils are about 50% pink/orange/brown - trichomes are all white, not seeing any clear. adjusting to lights on 24x7, temperature is low, 20 degrees and ive got the humidity about 45% - time to overdrive and preserve terpenes with the low temps. easy for low temps here, its already -4 outside, my metal air intake hose is very cold drawing in air from outside. Will likely chop the plant tomorrow or the next day, looking to be about perfect - these are next level genetics Uploaded a video Day 70 Finishing another week strong, she will likely be cut tomorrow, pistils about 50% pink orange brown she is enjoying the 24/7 light and cold temps, the buds are getting more covered in resin glands/trichomes

Hello growmies! Welcome to week six of An Epsilon Adventure! Massive thanks to both Shogun and Royal Queen Seeds for sponsoring this grow! So here we are at week six and every one of these girls are at a slightly different stage, it is quite fascinating to watch them develop one after the other. Today I made the last adjustment to the light possible. I removed the adjustable hangers and affixed a carabiner which I tightly tied to the top of the tent bar. There is about 1.5 inches of space between the top of the shade and the tallest part of the roof of the tent. Plant 1 is already taller than this, and it looks like plant 6 and maybe even plant 5 are going to join it. It's a madness. I am sure you have already looked at the photos but just in case you do what I do and read the diary first... Here is my assessment at the beginning of week 6: Plant 1: Height: 1st (137cm) - what can I say about this ridiculous plant? Day 36... 137cm tall. I have had to raise the light to as high as it is physically possibly to raise it and it's still not high enough. She is done stretching now, she may add 3-5cm over the next week or so but I don't expect more than that, so her top of her main cola going to have to develop above the level of the light. Nothing I can really do, nothing wise anyway. What a monster plant. Maturation: 4th - early into flower - bud sites developing, pistils just starting to explode. Plant 2: Height: 4th (111cm) - this plant has been there or there abouts as the tallest plant for most of the grow, but she has topped out at 111cm. She will gain some during flower but not much more than a few centimetres. Very impressive plant, loads of bud sites, really big strong secondary branches. This one is going to be colas galore. Maturation: 3rd - well into flower - all white pistils Plant 3: Height: 6th (95cm) For some brief days the tallest plant in the room, she peaked early and is now the "shortest" at "only" 95cm for this "50-70cm" strain. She is utterly dwarfed by four of her five sisters in just about every department, being quite a bit smaller even than plant 4 (although I have removed the most lower nodes from this plant). Compared with her sisters she is almost a runt... except that she is 25cm taller than the strain top-end average and matches the maximal height of the previous tallest Epsilon F1 plant I am aware of. It's not that she is small, actually she's pretty big for an Epsilon F1, it's just that the rest of the girls are on another level altogether. Plants 1, 5 and 6 are all absolute beasts. Maturation: 1st - well into flower - first shades of brown in some pistils. Plant 4: Height: 5th (98cm) although only 3cm taller than plant 3, overall she is a much larger plant. Her secondary nodes are the same height as plant 3. Maturation: 2nd - well into flower - all white pistils Plant 5: Height: 3rd (113cm) - one of the two thick/short girls who have grown at a similar pace all along - she is further ahead than plant 6 but not by much and I think she will probably exceed 120cm this week, though I do not think she will outgrow plant 1 or 6. Maturation: 5th - early into flower - bud sites developing. Plant 6: Height: 2nd (120cm) - my predictions were correct about this girl and her continued growth. I now think she might actually outgrow plant 1, which is quite worrying. Maturation: 6th - early into flower - bud sites forming - by far the least mature plant of the six. ### Week 6 Day 2 23:00 30/7 Photographed. Raised the light. Rotated the plants. Inspected, measured and reported on each plant. ### Week 6 Day 3 23:00 31/7 It has not escaped my attention that the plants that are more advanced into flower have darkened and have some burnt tips. I need to flush them and lay off the base nutes a bit. These plants are just growing and maturing so quickly that I cannot keep up. ### Week 6 Day 5 02:30 2/8 Fertigated 3l of nutrient mix, without either COCO A or B. ### Week 6 Day 6 01:30 3/8 photographed --- Thanks for reading growmies! 👊 ========== Tent: 120cm x 120cm x 180cm Light: 600w HID Elite Dual Spectrum HPS + Angel Wing Reflector Air: 5" duct fan system with carbon filter ~300 m3/hour + RAM 9" floor fan + 4" intake fan Pots: Air Pruner Fabric Pots 30l - UGro XL Coco + horticultural grade perlite (~20%) Seeds supplied by Royal Queen Seeds https://www.royalqueenseeds.com Nutrients supplied by Shogun Fertilisers https://www.shogunfertilisers.com/en ==========

Hello Diary, Finished the second week of growing on my little Farm and as you can see from the photos, Milky Way F1 is growing nice and fast without any problems so far. I only water it every 4-5 days and watch her and her roommates flourish and grow. Milky Way F1 grew a little more than 10 cm in a week, which is great, It got a lot of new leaves, maybe the most if I compare it with Apollo and Titan. Lighter spots are still visible on the leaves, but there are none on the new leaves, as if it has matured and strengthened. And they started showing the first signs of flower formation. It will be much more visible next week. As I mentioned, watering is not that frequent, every 4 days she gets about 2 liters of water, like her two roommates. This time I added Bigger Flowers from the Bio Flowering Booster palette. In my opinion, the conditions on the farm are satisfactory, the humidity is still around 50% and the temperature is around 25 degrees. A brief overview of the week. 08/05/2023 - Day 9. Watering. I prepared about 6 liters of water, lowered the pH to 6.0 and added Bigger Flowers. I watered all three plants evenly with that amount. 12/05/2023 - Day 13. Watering. This time I didn't add Bigger Flowers, I just regulated the p.H. value. 13/05/2023 - Day 14. Photographing and height measurement. Officially the end of the second week of growing season. Milky Way F1 - 18 cm That's all for this week, thank you all for your support and see you soon.

Pistils are starting to look greenish instead of full white But I’ve noticed that some pistils are turning Orange prematurely i don’t know if it’s because of environment or what

A week further and have started the flowering. I write this a couple of days later, with now more knowlegde about revegging and can conclude I started too flower too early. Especially the big plant, which was still not completely revegged. On the upside, I got to learn lots about revegging, also to know that it might take weeks for the plants to make the switch again and produce buds :(, should have waited few more weeks for revegging done. So wet on with defoliating, the left plant on the pictures I still have to do and trained budsites more sideways and some leaftucking, strategic defoliage on top. We shall see. The plants are not happy and im going to feed them some Biobizz Alg-A-Mic to help them destress and ease the suffering, thankfully @styliaga gave me some. I will do another update after coming feed and recovery. As a tip if you ever go re-veg a plant: let them finish the process. I can see the monster growth of lots of micro budsites developping in the canopy. Hopefully with enough time they will develop into a sea of chunky danky goodness. The lights I put a little higher, for saey, while Im adjusting the dimmer to full, to let them acclimatise to the full light. No light points yet after two days, not even the leafs curling up like in the beginning. Some things go well...

Week 7 Veg - January 16/21 to 22/21 ***** Week 7 will be their last week being able to take them out of the tent😟 SCROG netting going in on the weekend ahead. Not really a lot to report this week as the girls are doing well and I am just wanting their side branches to grow longer to help filling in the canopy anyway. Performed more LST this week and bending over the branches daily. Didn’t do any HST this week, will once the net is in and I have a better visual of how the branches need to bend. They have come a long ways over the last 2 weeks when you look back at pictures. They have filled out with more side branching and other than battling a little purple striping on the main stems they seem pretty happy. Leaf colour is good and should be in good shape for the flip soon. Will go through all of week 8 before flipping so hopefully week 9 will be transition week and week 10 the start of flower.......have to get through next week first though😀👍 Switching over to tap water again. I have been struggling with calcium and magnesium deficiencies on all grows for the last year. I can’t seem to get the right amount added back to the RO water I use in all feedings. So running with straight water again now. Ppm coming out is 325 so I will work with that. Going to explore my own RO system in the house rather than bottled water, a system that adds back calcium, magnesium, and iron. It’s been flowing okay for the first week and will continue on for now. Using RO water I have been feeding full strength on the nutrients and have been working on backing them down a bit to compensate for the starting point of 325 now. They have continued to be fed once a week roughly and supplemented with calmag and microbes. Little more detail....... Jan 16/21, Day 43 Veg - 3L each of full line at full strength in RO water - 1150ppm and 5.8pH given to the girls - didn’t add any other nutes other than IPP line. Jan 17/21, Day 44 Veg - dry out day - pulled down all the girls again tonight to train them outwards. - Jan 18/21, Day 45 Veg - 3L for each girl today with tap water and CalMag @ 1ml, Microbes @ 2ml, Nature’s Candy @ 1.5ml - 700ppm and 5.7pH is what that works out to. - have to use a considerable amount of pH down to adjust the tap water, over 6ml in 16L Jan 19/21, Day 46 Veg - measured the girls today, GSCHB Is 12” tall. They were topped already😀 - dry out day for the girls. - pulled two large fan leaves from her. They were just getting the way too much of lower branches light. Jan 20/21, Day 47 Veg - 2.5L each with plain tap water - 295ppm and 5.8pH. - all the girls are looking big and bushy today.......they are ready for flip soon. Jan 21/21, Day 48 Veg - dry out day for the girls. Jan 22/21, Day 49 Veg - pulled all the girls down again......repeating the same LST each day manually rather than tying down for now. - this should be water day but leaving for today as I am going to lolipop the lower branches and a heavier leaf stripping tomorrow. - will feed tomorrow as they will benefit more. Very solid week ETS......the girls are taking off and expect to see lots of leaves popping out over the next couple of weeks😀👍 Work on the side branching to come up higher closer to the tops next week.......continue tap water and give a feed with Epsom Salts new week

Die ersten 3 sind gefallen. 2 sind noch übrig. Das Nassgewicht der 3 Pflanzen war sehr unterschiedlich, aber insgesamt wirklich sehr, sehr schwer. Die Box wurde jetzt mit einem Raumteiler in Trockenkammer und Blühkammer geteilt. Die kleine Pflanze wurde jetzt auch gespült und wird demnächst auch gefällt. Die große bekommt jetzt erst ihre ersten braunen Härchen.

Es una variedad super estable en su cultivo , las primeras semanas le fascina la luz blanca , en mi caso usé un panel led #qkwin el cual tiene un mix ideal para crecimiento y floración : chip samsung 3000k 5000k uv 660nm iR . Agradezco a mi amigo mkled que gracias a su ayuda logramos probar ese panel led ! Aguante master ! ... En los primeros días de su crecimiento estuvimos con 20 horas de luz y 4 de oscuridad , en mi zona de cultivo , es un lugar húmedo y frío , estas horas de luz me ayudan bastante al crecimiento...ya casi en su 3 o 5ta semana de crecimiento , bajamos a 18/6 ... Se realizó corte apical en la 3era semana de crecimiento y reaccionó al 100%... A medida que crece le aplico defoliacion y poda lolypop para una aireación ideal en toda la planta y además evitamos esfuerzo adicional de la planta en querer buscar luz con los brotes de más abajo ... Ideal para realizar podas y lst ! Super fácil y cómoda, se recupera fácilmente después de defoliar . Por su estructura final tambien es ideal para técnicas de cultivo como SOG y SCROG por su facilidad al adaptarse ... En floración , le gusta el ambiente bien seco y aireado , 22°C / 40% humedad / extracción 45mins on / 15mins off / intraccion pasiva .. A los primeros dias de floración ya hace notar su riquísimo aroma a limon maduro y skunk , se confunde con un olor a orina de gato en algunas ocasiones ...un verdadero zorrillo... Le hice defoliacion 1 día antes de pasar a floración , reaccionó super bien , esto me ayudo a que todos los brotes pequeños recibieran mayor luz y se definieran ... En esta ocasión su alimentación sube "por las nubes" logrados medir hasta una alimentación de 2.2 EC una verdadera bestia ! Robusta ! Ya en su 4ta a 5ta semana de floración comenzamos con riegos de sólo agua , sin fertilizantes .... Su corte fue en su 8va semana de floración y era un corte sin fin ! El resultado ideal ... Esta nena nos rindió unos 90g como mínimo ! Bastante conforme..
