Fifth week of flowering

Future is loving the tent to herself, room enough to spread out and phatt up . She’s pungent as , sticky, and colas are like 3 ft long . This strain promises high THC and by looks of it I’m gonna get a bumper yield in around 2 weeks . Can’t wait for my time space continuum to be fucked up 😂😂😂😂😂

Semana tranquila, en este último día se cambiará la solución nutritiva, y con la nueva probaré a meter H2O2 y ver si ayuda a mejorar la calidad del agua, ya que después de 7 días encuentro un poco de babosadas en las mangueras de aireación dentro del contenedor máster. Al paso que van creo que una grow de 1,2 x 1,2 queda chica para 4 plantas, o sea empieza a resultar incómoda para hacer controles y todo el resto. Acabo de cambiar la solución nutritiva, e notado que podría haber estado 1 semana más, pero la cambio cada 2 semanas, ya que mi maestro dice que cada semana, pero a mi me da pena desperdiciar tanta agua y nutrientes... 🙏

😈

I made too many mistake to comment light was to high early in the grow I forgot to transplant, I fed it veg nutrients for 2 weeks into flowering and RH went down to 25% at the end and stayed at 25% through trying to dry

Week 7 Flowering / Everything is looking great! The plants are well developed and covered in trichomes. Last week or close to it: about 50% milky trichomes on the Critical Widow and Amnesia Lemon, with some still clear and a few amber. I’m thinking about harvesting either in the next few days or in about a week while continuing feeding. Aroma-wise: Critical Widow of the lower buds has a really unique profile — like a sweet candy Amnesia Lemon slightly salty, with a subtle background of peanut and a hint of lemon. Flush plan FINAL FLUSH + HARVEST (2x16L SCROG) Apr 21: Drain 20L → 10L FlashClean Apr 22-27 DRY-BACK (do nothing) Apr 28: CUT whole plant dry trim → hang dry 7 days

Start of week 5 today, everything seems to be going great! The Gelato OG is by far the biggest plant of the bunch so far but they all seem to be taking well to LST, HST , Topping & defoliation! Will be going in the flower tent as soon as the other ladies harvest so they will probably have atleast 2 to 3 more weeks of veg!

She survived a couple of very warm days 🔥(32°C). She also started to get burned tips on the bigger fan leaves and the lower leaves started to die so I used some more nutes. Seems to be solved now. Watered with 2l(nutes), 1,5l(no nutes) and 2l(nutes). She is starting to smell very loud 🤤, because flowering has started. Hoping she stretches a bit more tho🙏

So we’re at the start of week at 10 and both plants are coming along nicely. Pheno #1 has swelled considerably over the last 2 weeks and she has packed on some serious weight. Pheno #2 is a little behind but unfortunately I will have to chop her early as I have to dry in the tent that I grow in. Will be chopping both plants in a few days. Update Day 67: Both plants have been chopped and hung. They’re taking up 2 rows of across my grow tent. Going for a nice slow dry with temperatures sitting at 65F and humidity sitting at 60%RH.

It’s now time to start flower. They are looking amazing and I’m going to go ahead and throw his crocs in there. I have one tent that I have not put in flower yet just for the main fact that one of my seats became a auto flower so I’m letting them run more time to let that auto flower finish and see what that becomes

DAY 56 flowering: Hi all and welcome to any new visitors too. We are at the near end point now with this 1st run of the viparspectra xs1500. It has been a very pleasant experience and also a humbling one too. I never expected the performance it has proven and initially thought I would struggle to find a practical way of incorporating it into my set up and to see what it had got to offer. Deciding to go the route I have was more driven by the lights abilities to perform wat better than I anticipated. The 5 seedlings soon became 5 big ladies that would have been impossible to squeeze under the 2x2 flowering coverage They did however, get an amazing start right up to flowering beginning before I had to choose who stayed under the xs1500. The 2 that I mainly diary for the lights ability are the focus of the journal but I have to include a little on the other strains due to their initial support from the light and to also include the Gorilla cookies as they are amazing plants. They are both so close to ready now and sadly one of the mains has been hit with an little bud rot from its density. The buds smell so candy sweet now too. I will be keeping a very vigilant eye on these now. Grandaddys mimosa had continued her swelling from using the #Shogun Dragon force and is a perfect example of how the product works in the final 2 weeks of flowering , when usually they are fading out to finish. The buds have doubled in girth with an absolutely solid feel to them too . The light has helped create some very hard buds. No signs of whisky popcorn at all and each stack is a solid spike of flowering plant. For such a squat girl, she is so impressive. She smells so fruity with a hint of citrus to her and she is engulfing all the leaves that had been poking out previously. I think she will be a surprise yield next week !. The Northern lights girls are both doing really well too with the #2 mutant starting to ripen up finally now. She is still way taller than her sister but has sone long node gaps. #1 is totally different, she is a spiked monster compared and her colas are taking on a nice pale orange colour as they ripen. I do think she will go another week before being ready to consider harvest. She is still so fresh looking in a lot of places that I dont want to rush her at all. The light has managed to penetrate deep enough into the plant to create long spiked colas with no issues down low in the canopy with whispy popcorn to mention either. This is a very positive point to mention as some l.e.d do not get the penetration needed to do more than create a top canopy with poor light reaching deeper and not supplying the par they need. This light does not have that issue by a long shot. It penetrates like "Dirk diggler" and reaches all those important ladies parts !!!.... I am most impressed by the mimosa so far and as a 1st gen cross auto of a mimosa lemon Male sacks and a random multi strain seeding from its pollen release , I have ended up with a good amount of crossed autos from trusted and stable strains. It can be fun growing these out and so far this is the 3rd from the batch that I have successfully run. Aside from the benefits of the end products we get , the journey we go on can be an amazing and eye openening experience. If you start to investigate how these plants really live , love and die and how they use the network of available systems to communicate and build our much loved bud factories , you will find it hard to climb out of that rabbit hole . Finding out that fungi is not the man everyone wants to party with but IS a complex communication system used in nature to meet the needs of the whole forest/fauna in unison is life changing !!!!!. Be well growmies. See you on the next update... UPDATE UPDATE###UPDATE####UPDATE The Gorilla cookies have reached their end !!. At day 57, they are now going into a 48hr dark period before harvesting . I did have a couple of bud rot issues in one or two buds due to the density of their growth. I am hoping to keepnot at bay during the low and slow dry after trimming wet this time. I will update their yield ect once they finish. Pics dont do them justice and they smell so sweet. Thanks fast buds.

Harvest: 200g dry total Two big jars full of trims and aery buds. Final update: this is a bit overdue, I've been enjoying the fruits of labor too much perhaps 😎 Buds have been curing for a month in Grove bags, the big one has 100g and the rest are in smaller bags. Didn't need the mason jars, instead I put the trims there. I really like those Grove bags, so easy to use, initial drying and then just filled the bags. No need to burp, just set and forget. Really happy with the outcome, now I have smoke for few years 😂 Many of the buds were a bit fluffy, maybe just because there were so so many bud sites. The main branches were dense and heavy. Also, the foxtailing made some of them look not so perfect but I don't mind really. Smoke is pleasant, flavorful and good high. No anxiety, just relaxed and happy. Still need to decarb and make oil from all the trims, it'll make a big load of cookies etc. which I really like. Gives a steady 2-3h high hopefully. Now I will be having a break for some time, since the current location is not the best for growing. Hope to get back into it soon though, I didn't remember how much fun it is until doing this project again after a long time ✌️ Trouble in paradise, a week ago I noticed spots of mold in few branches farthest from the fan. So I cut them off and put to waste. I also decided to cut all the remaining big branches as a safety measure. Rest of the plant was harvested a week later and now the project is wrapped apart from drying and curing. Overall, it's been fun despite of making some mistakes along the way. But I will take the learnings for the future projects. This was my first autoflower try and I've been positively surprised by it's qualities. Plant was resilient and didn't care that much about any issues it had. It grew bigger than I expected and was actually overcrowded. NFT system worked great, as did the nutrients. The first batch of buds are almost ready to go to curing and the rest will take a week or so to follow. I will try curing in Grove bags and in mason jars. I will post a final update once I get to trim the rest and also try the fruits of labor 😎

Still flushing.

30.11 runter mit CannaPk13/14 von 1ml/L auf 0.75ml/L. HesiBoost 1ml/L auf 2ml/L. 4L Solution mit Ec 2.2. 28.11 Canna Boost ist leider leer, wird mit Hesi Boost ersetzt. Morgen kommt noch Canna Pk13/14 rein. Generative Phase 2 hat begonnen, schraube später die Temp. auf 15-17°C für paar Stunden runter mit der Hoffnung auf Purple Buds. VPD 1.2 PPFD 800-1000. 27.11 Start Woche 4. 2l mit 2.25 Ec. DLI 38 - 42. VPD 1.20.

A step back recently: Started a final flush (2 days in), and decided to start feeding her again - thanks to some great GD input! 250 ppm at re-start and will work my way to 500ppm? She's still rockin' along - like nothing happened. She topped out at 350 ppm without tanking PH, so she is stable here. PH is now swinging down fairly quickly last 12 hours. Drained off 1/3 of reservoir and get reservoir down to 250PPM. 5 days later, major PH swings down again. Mixed another fresh reservoir. I am using Zero Water 5 gallon system, and just realized the PPM coming out was 100, and PH at 3! If I am at 100 today, that means these filters have been shot for a while, maybe since start of my PH issue. There is also interesting information about when zero water filters reach their expectancy. They put out fishy smell and otherwise. I will be watching my filters more often and taking more notes since this ZeroWater 5 gal system is really the way to go if you are only growing a plant or two. Filters are a bit spendy but when you take time, gas, convenience etc. its a no brainer (if the water coming out is zero:) - I get about 15 gallons per filter (175ppm from tap). Day 70. It’s been about a day since new res change. Steady Eddie at 250 ppm and 6.2. I’ll let her drink the bucket down a good ways if things remain stable with a drift down. I doubt it though, 5 gallon is fine for 12” autos but at 2’ she really needed 8 gal. Time to up the R&D on the cabinet! Also checked Zero Water again and filter is now putting out 200ppm of 3.0 water. New filters installed! Hope she finishes soon, the top of her canopy slowly getting cooked over the last 10 days. 8" of light distance is too little. PPFD 2000+ at the top, but leaf temps are in the upper 70's. Gotta hit a decent DLI on these lower buds - without nuking the top nugs, right?! As the week concludes, she’s in a fresh bath, at 250ppm @ 6.0 and running stable again. New water filters installed so zero water variable removed. Last serving of half+ teaspoon of GH dry KB ripening, and will reduce ppm by 25/day until I reach 10-15%. 1-2 day flush, if at all.

She's a beast, maybe the biggest auto I've grown so far at 21" at almost 6 weeks. I didn't train the main cola, only the sides and they are coming out strong. Curious if this baby will smell much. Happy growing y'all!

The seeds had problems to sprout, but after the second week the plant exploded in growth. I have limited space so I am doing multiple harvests to try and maximize all buds. This week I harvested the tops and in the next 1-2 weeks will do the rest of the plant. Updated Week 8 harvest 68 dry Week 9 harvest 85 dry Week 10 harvest 34 + 25 (popcorn) dry Total: 212

BIG BIG apologies to Heather from fast buds & to Growdiaries & anyone who follows. The past few months have been a massive struggle, not just with temperatures & growing weed but on a personal level. My wife has been very poorly & with covid and everything going on, it's put a massive strain on us all!! I've tries to maintain an active presence on Instagram but that's about all I've physically had time for. I've put this update together today, so far into the grow now it almost seems pointless. I lost my original Mimosa due to high temps & high RH. Moving into the attic at that time of year was a mistake. It has cost me a small fortune to keep things alive. I've had to purchase an air con unit, more fans & just more of everything to be honest. My purple punch is almost ready to harvest, any time within the next couple of days, followed shortly by Bruce Banner & Kosher cake. I wont be winning any awards for this Diary & I feel bad as I was supposed to be show casing what 420 Fast buds has to offer & I've failed...miserably. I hope you can make sense of all the pictures I've included....just a mass photo frenzy over the past few weeks. Thanks to everyone & all your comments. Wishing you all the best. One Love ❤️
