Another week of Veg gone and trying to understand feeding.... My last grow (the one on the balcony) i overwatered at the start so I made sure this time I would not make the same mistake. I dgave a bit more root booster and found some organic Molasses that i added to the 1st feeding. I know its now considered 'food' but more as an activator of microbes in the earth but I'm sure it can't hurt right? Quite some growth this week, so tried to LST it down a bit... Buuuuut I'm not happy with it, I can forsee spacing problems (should have maybe planted the seeds off-set to one side of the pot to get a better growth going....I'll probably undo the tie-down and just let it grow.

Armario posto em fase de floraçao. Rega de 4 a 4 dias com 2l de agua desmineralizasa. Deixei a lampada cair sobre elas , piqueno incidente 😣😣 Mas esta tudo bem só perdi uma folha da piquena uma da grande e algumas queimaduras 😣😣

March 9, 2021 (Day 64, Flower 15): Pots were already light today. A day earlier than usual. Watered with 4l per plant with 3ml/l pH Perfect Bloom + 1ml/l pH Perfect Grow + 2ml/l Sweet Raw + 2ml/l Big Bud + 1ml/l Cal-Mag Plus at 6.2 pH. Runoff at 6.4 pH - barely got any this time. May have to look into more water per application. Plants are looking fantastic. Buds are starting to form all over each plant now. Smell is getting stronger. Moved humidifier outside tent because the plants are creating enough of their own humidity I've had to turn on the carbon filter and inline fan. This knocked the average humidity down just a bit which is just fine with me at this point considering my lower temperatures. The stretch already seems to be slowing down a bit. Averaging 45% rH and 70℉. March 10, 2021 (Day 65, Flower 16): Unknown 1 is starting to slow down the stretch a bit, but the other plants keep gaining height. They're becoming a bit more even now at least. Everything is looking great. Averaging 45% rH and 70℉. March 11, 2021 (Day 66, Flower 17): Stretch has definitely slowed now. Pistils are shooting everywhere and buds are forming strong. A few more days and I'll take some fan leaves. Smell is getting really strong and filled my entire house - had to turn up the carbon filter a bit to control the scent. Really liking what I'm seeing so far. Averaging 45% rH and 70℉. March 12, 2021 (Day 67, Flower 18): Pots were light today. Watered with 4l per plant with 3ml/l pH Perfect Bloom + 1ml/l pH Perfect Grow + 2ml/l Sweet Raw + 2ml/l Big Bud + 1ml/l Cal-Mag Plus at 5.8 pH. Plants were really starting to bush out and some of the fan leaf stems were pushing 6"+, so I decided to pull the trigger on my first round of defoliation today. I was going to wait until day 21, but too many bud sites were being covered. The plants look fantastic. Buds are starting to smell amazing. Averaging 45% rH and 70℉. March 13, 2021 (Day 68, Flower 19): Plants are looking great. Tilled top half-inch of soil. Definitely seeing some trichome growth, especially on Unknown 2. Had to turn up my carbon filter as the smell is starting to get out of control. The smell's a mix of gym socks, gasoline, and cream with a hint of sweetness. The smell punches you in the face when you open the tent. I hadn't measured the plants in a few days; Unknown 1 is all the way up to 27" tall. The other plants are lagging behind a bit but the light and air penetration looks great. Averaging 45% rH and 70℉. March 14, 2021 (Day 69, Flower 20): This hobby is great. So much fun opening my tent each day to check on the plants. They're getting more and more smelly. Buds are chunking up a bit and trichomes are starting to form. Everything is looking great. Tilled the top soil again. Tucked a few auxiliary fan leaves away from developing bud sites on Gelato 1 and Unknown 2. Averaging 45% rH and 70℉. March 15, 2021 (Day 70, Flower 21): Pots were light today. Watered with 4l per plant with 4ml/l pH Perfect Bloom + 1ml/l pH Perfect Grow + 2ml/l Sweet Raw + 2ml/l Big Bud + 1ml/l Cal-Mag Plus at 6.5 pH. The buds are starting to frost up and pistils are shooting out everywhere. Turning down humidity another 5-10% the next few weeks. Averaging 45% rH and 70℉. Really excited to see what the next several weeks have in store!

Welcome to my Lemon Drizzle Diary Sponsored by Spider-Farmer & Barneysfarm. 1 Month Update in 1 Week. Trying a new thing, with so many diaries. I really don't need to be doing so many updates in 1 week. So, for most of my diaries apart from one I'm in contract with. I'll be applying up to 14-21 days in 1 week. This was let go for over a month. I'm giving you a month of her growth. She really is another few weeks ahead in Real Time. Days 15-42 Veg Days 10-37 weeks 3-6 1 month. Plant done very well in her early weeks coming into wk 3 she has 10 days of veg and a considerable root zone. (That was root bound) been a fem. Id no concerns about losing her roots at the end. I then decided to go for another smaller but slightly bigger pot for a few weeks to get roots going again fast that won't be an bound like that. After a few weeks coming into wk 6 I put her into her final 11L pot. And she flourished. She pult herself out of the light green edges she suffered from been stuck in a another small pot (her roots found it hard to catch their breath been root bound) but, roots are literally coming out the end of the 11L pot now. She's at the end of wk 6 after going through hard defoliations at the start of wk 3 well into and beyond wk 6. And I've made myself 4 very nice tight long nodes with lots of inters built up. When she's put to into pre flower this week I'll start to open her up lightly. Not much. As there is only 4 nodes so, there's not much to LST but pulling them slight apart from each other. Light SE5000 is doing a smashing job. I've only had it up to 85%. Really good co2 light. And this lady is far away from the light. So, she's maybe getting 45% of her power. She's getting 40k lux. When its in fattening she'll be getting 65-70k Co2 Is kept between 8-1300. Average is 1000. Temp is between 31-33c slight dip. Thanks to Barneysfarm for their 2022-23 Releases. And to Spider-Farmer for allowing me to try their new Upgraded 2023 Spectrum SE5000. Both amazing companies with great products in their own right. Much appreciated for the support. Thanks for stopping by. I look forward to seen your work. Either way, thanks for dropping in.

Just switched to 12 and 12.

Stretching really well in 2nd week don't think I will veg them too long, maybe another 2-3weeks, been able to top 2 of them so far. I will be topping all of them just the once. Growing slightly quicker than the last barney's seeds I used. All looking very healthy.

Strain has very close node spacing

Day 7in to flower heat is a little high hear But heyyyy ohh. Ph in 5.8 run off 5.9 Ec in. 2.4 run off 2.6 Both lights now on 100% Zeus side just starting to take over Lights off / heat problems but can’t be helped

How is it growing, my fun(k) loving friends? ***INFO*** For more on my setup, why it was monster cropped, and how I made the canopy, see Germination page and subsequent weeks. They had 48 hrs of darkness, and the time has come to say goodbye to my friends. I thanked them again, spend some time with them, and under the sound of Amazonian shaman's harvest and healing songs (will post link), asked for their gifts, and apologized for taking their lives. I do this while in contact with the plants, touching, smelling them, observing every detail, no thoughts, just in the present moment. I feel emotional as I do this and remember how they were a companion, a source of distraction in a time of worry, sadness, and loss. How they already comforted me and kept me company in a time of painful insights about honesty, commitment, and staying true to myself. I thank them again for their wisdom and gifts, viva Santa Maria, viva Planta Maestra, may the mother of all beings give us healing and protection. And I proceed with the harvest as I visualize my intentions with every cut. Branch by bud laden branch is tenderly untangled from the scrog net, taken with a clean-cut and immediately hung upside down in the grow tent, which will now double as a curing and drying room. A couple more weeks and we will have the final cured and dried weight. More photos and movies will follow, this is where we are so far!! Thank you for checking in on our journey, all the love, support, and compliments were a true motivation, a very needed distraction, and guidance for me and for Sunshine. Big hug, lots of love and take care! ***UPDATE*** The final weigh-in is ready. I hadn't seen them in a week, because of my vacation. The humidifier I set up, had failed. So the grow had dried in 7 days, what I wanted to be 14 at least. Thankfully, its Sativa ancestry shines through, the smoke isn't harsh, the buds a sticky and smelly, no hay smell at all. We ended up at 246 grams, excluding a shitload of larf and popcorn bud, totaling at 310 grams all in, a first at a gram per watt for me, but for the Zambeza seed competition, I stated we would only weigh the quality bud. Overall I'm very happy!! Guessed weights in the competition: - @hashy : 0 grams - @MrHyde : 198 grams - @JamMAKEcan : 224 grams - @TrickOrTrip : 260 grams - @Greeneysgrow: 312.5 grams - @Ohey_fu_kyu: 350 grams - @Puffs4Pipes: 385 grams - @Hempkid : 605 grams - @DoDrugs420 : 621 grams TrickorTrip was closest!! Congratulations!!! I will be contacting you to get the seeds with you!! Thanks for playing to all the others and better luck next time, I will give away some seeds again!! Summary: Cost of setup: 850 euro Cost of nutrients and soil: 125 euro Cost of seeds: None they were cloned Cost of power: 150 euros in the power bill Total cost: 1125,-- for setup and this run. I smoke for medical reasons and it's used for ritual and healing purposes, never to be sold, as it loses its magical properties. Should I have to buy Gelato of this quality at the dispensary that I frequent, it would cost me at least € 15,-- per gram. 246 x 15 = 3690 euros. also, 49 car rides of 25 miles there and back, 250 euros in gas saved. Overall conclusion: I think we can call this a succes. Made back my investment, my cost per grow and we saved the environment. Thanks for all the love, tips and support! Couldnt have done this on my first indoor LED grow, without you!! Wish you were here to smoke a fat one, some good conversation about our hobby and now... I'm hungry.... See you on the next one!!

I'll keep dreaming and light another one... Big hug BioBuds

Day 77 She has chunked up a bit and put on trichomes. Considerably more than her sister. Watered with 17oz spring water no nutes. Likely the last watering. Gonna check trichomes for % amber and chop on Day 80. Day 78 Buds are dry enough, ready for trim and cure. The whole plant is larf except for two colas. Quite disappointing but it was a crazy grow with lots of curve balls. 1oz trimmed bud off of this. Still have the second plant in the tent so we'll see what we get. When it's ready. Day 79 The remaining plant in this tent is fading out nicely. If I'm honest, this is the first time I've actually experienced this. In the past, I harvested too soon, or thought it was a deficiency. I am watering with plain spring water, top and bottom. Trichome check later today. Trichome Report: 30% clear, 70% cloudy, no amber. Day 83 - Chop Day! Finally chopped the 2nd plant of this grow. She chunked up considerably and is funky. Nothing spectacular stands out, just smells like strong weed. 4.6oz wet. Buds are in the HerbsNow dryer set for 72hrs. Finally took a toke of the first plant. Such a clean smoke. Nice day high. I was stoned but totally functional. Super sticky! Full harvest report coming as soon as this plant is dry.

i kind a always wanted to grow my own CDB at home and recherche the potencial of them wen compared with the ones on the legal market and wen RQS approach me with the possibility to grow they're F1 genetics i saw there an excellent opportunity to try it out, thank you RQS for that and for it all you guys were great on the mail delivery, much respect <3 <3 <3 now lets make magic together and travel true the cosmos like never before <3 <3 <3 To start nothing to fancy m seed in to water and in solo 24 hours she was out and ready to go in to a soil plug, now she rests in a dome for a few days and from there wen i see some roots i will transplant to a tiny pot ere she will rest for a week or so . i am so verry exited for these one you guys have no idea hihihihi <3 <3 <3 and the root came in abut 48 h so in to the soil she went and as always use fungus nature help and trow a gram or so of myco in there, i fell this helps my roots explode and with them so do my girls <3 <3 <3 wen watering nothing too fancy, for now just regulator and root booster , i do not think they need food the first week or so but this is just my humble opinion <3 <3 <3 As always thank you all for stopping by and for supporting me on this journey, i am super passion about growing and fell blessed to have you all with me on this new journey <3 <3 <3 Genetics - RQS COSMOS F1 Ligth - LUMATEK ZEUS 465 COMPACT PRO

En esta etapa no agregue ningún nutriente a la solución para evitar que la planta tenga gusto al nutriente, así dicen los expertos que queman esta hierba. Yo lo hago solo por deporte, no porque lo fume. mantuve el ph en condiciones estables a como dictan los científicos en este rubro. la próxima😁 semana corto las plantas y las pongo a secar.

How's it growing guys, just a quick update on the Alien OG by The Cali Connection, end of Week 3 of Flower, I have uploaded a video for you guys so any questions just ask 👍🏾 Happy Growing 🌱💚

SUMMARY: Due to time constraints I decided in the end to make this the last week. I checked the trichs on both plants and the Amnesia now has plenty of amber heads and the OG now also has some albeit much less. Though all trichs are at least milky with the exception of the rare clear head or 2. I did a quick flush watering with rain water only on Monday, Tues, and Thursday then left to dry until Saturday when I chopped them down. DAY 92 -------- Thursday 03/12/2020 I fed the plants. GWE 04/2020 updated schedule Week 9 Late Bloom nutes for the OG and then the Sensi Garden Peak nutes for the Amnesia. OG (in) = 5.5L pH 6.5 OG (out) = 0.6L (11%) pH 5.6 [0.9 drop] Amnesia (in) = 3.5L pH 6.4 Amnesia (out) = 1.6L (46%) pH 5.8 [0.6 drop] If my eyes don't deceive me it would appear that the Amnesia is finally starting to pack on some weight! Hopefully both will have a decent yield in 2 weeks time. The RH has been at 45-48% for the last week and the temps are consistent at 24°C and so we're right on track. DAY 94 -------- Saturday 05/12/2020 I fed the plants though gave the amnesia less volume as it doesn't need it. GWE 04/2020 updated schedule Week 9 Late Bloom nutes for the OG and then the Sensi Garden Peak nutes for the Amnesia. OG (in) = 5.5L pH 6.4 OG (out) = 0.4L (8%) pH 5.3 [1.1 drop] Amnesia (in) = 3L pH 6.2 Amnesia (out) = 1L (33%) pH 5.6 [0.6 drop] The OG is drinking more and more and both plants are definitely starting to pack on some weight now and I'm very excited. DAY 95 ------ Sunday 06/12/2020 I checked the trichs on both plants and its a good job I did as the Amnesia has plenty of amber heads (possibly upwards of 30% its very hard to confirm tbh as the usb microscope is handheld and so VERY sensitive to movement - it took me best part of 30mins to get enough clear shots for me to decide the Amnesia is done). I took shots of both trichs using my usb microscope but as its cheap and the app is freeware it is awful and so just clumps all your pics together and not in any particular order, or at least not in the order they were taken and so after spending 30mins+ taking pics I don't know which are from which plant! But both have amber trich heads showing though the OG doesn't have as many as the Amnesia as expected. I wasn't going to do a flush after doing some research and seeing that its a controversial topic over whether there is any benefit and my rationale being that I'd rather the buds be as big as possible and so it made sense to feed up until chop. However I changed my mind after not being able to find a reputable source that claims flushing is not beneficial plus the general consensus is that you absolutely must flush if using synthetic nutes which I am. I will flush from now until Friday and then chop on Saturday or Sunday. DAY 96 -------- Monday 07/12/2020 I watered with rainwater (pH between 6.2-6.4) giving the OG 6L and the Amnesia 5L to ensure plenty of runoff. DAY 97 -------- Tuesday 08/12/2020 I watered with rainwater (pH between 6.2-6.4) giving the OG 6L and the Amnesia 5L to ensure plenty of runoff. DAY 99 -------- Thursday 10/12/2020 This should technically be week 15 as of today but as I'm chopping on Saturday its just not worth creating another flowering week in this diary. I watered both plants for the last time today, both with rainwater (pH between 6.2-6.4) giving the OG 6L and the Amnesia 5L to ensure plenty of runoff. I will now let the plants dry out until harvest which will be on Saturday 12th. I have also knocked the lights off to leave them in darkness now until chop which gives them roughly 40 hours of darkness as advised by many. Apparently the darkness can somehow increase the potency though it seems this is another controversial topic and one I haven't done enough research on and so have decided to do so as all the tutorials/guides/diaries I've read do 12-72 hours of darkness before chop. If I don't chop this weekend then I'll be pushing it if I want another harvest before I go away next year. If this wasn't the case I would let these run until the Amnesia was about 50% or more amber to give the OG time to catch up as the OG genetics are much superior to the Amnesia.

7/18 so even though shes been flowering for only 5 weeks(starting6) shes looking closer to being done than I had expected. Shes been losing alot of yellow leaves and most of the pistils are orange now. I checked the trichomes as best as I could today and on the main/top cola, I saw some amber but very little. But the rest of the buds were mostly clear I believe. I still want her to keeo going another few weeks but we'll see as time and trichomes progress. I added some extra flowering nutes and a product thats got good stuff like kelp and molasses and crab meal and stuff besides NPK values to help the plants put on some extra weight hopefully. 7/19 just took pictures/videos and checked trichomes 7/22 checked trichomes. The very top nugs have some amber on them and the rest are mostly cloudy. Wish I wouldve been checking the trichomes sooner so I couldve started flushing sooner. I wish i wouldve stopped using open sesame sooner as well. Next time im gonna do some things different with these plants. Once the soils dry probably gonna chop

These girls really want to grow. Super strong and healthy!

I will be focusing this diary on the smoothie strain but you’ll be seeing some other plants in the tent that are not the same strain. I only have room in this tent so bare with me. There are 2 Smoothie, 1 CNC, and 1 Stardawg (dog). The smoothie are the two bigger ones in the back of the tent. Now, the Smoothie from FastBuds is just killin it right now. Since I popped the beans they have done nothing but show signs of greatness. I don’t think this one is gonna slow down much either. I’m going to push these plants harder than my last harvest. I had a really really amazing harvest last time. I was even able to pull sap out of all 4 plants. 2 Zkittles and 2 LSD-25. This was all done by feeding at the right times and keeping a “moist” soil. Also I want add that I ran pretty much the entire line of Nectar for the Gods at a little less then the recommended ratios. This time I plan on going a tiny bit over the recommended ratios just to see what these plants will do. Trust me, if the plants have a bad response I will go back to the recommended ratios. The reason I want to do this is because I really think these auto strains can handle a lot more than a regular flowering cycle plant would. They can handle more stress, that’s for sure. When do you think I should add a compost tea into my regimen? Soon or wait till the plant is a little larger?

Flowering: Week 10 since 12/12 change, Week 8 after 1st pistils, Breeder states 9 week flowering period 11/24 - Trichome Check - roughly 95% cloudy, 5% clear, few random ambers, will check again in 2-3 days, but definitely starting to mature 11/28 - Trichome Check - roughly 95% cloudy, 2% clear, 3% random ambers, will check again in 2-3 days, shooting for 20-30% amber NOTE: Included picture of 2nd Blue GSC I've been growing side by side with this diary. The 2nd plant was planted 3 weeks behind the plant seen in this diary and only had LST with no topping. The plant actually surpassed IMO the one I've kept a diary on and I'd have to attribute that to a combination of not being topped and a slightly larger pot giving it more room to grow. NON Nutrient Watering: 1500ml of 6.2ph Water every other day now until harvest PS - I really appreciate everyone's kind comments and likes!! Thanks for stopping by and checking out my grow :)

🌱 Runtz - Week 2 Update 🌱 The second week of growth is well underway, and so far, the Runtz seedlings are showing great potential, despite a small hiccup earlier in the week. 🌿 This week started with a bit of a scare when I noticed something unusual with my Root Juice fertilizer—it had gone bad, with white spots floating inside, resembling mold. I had already applied it a few times during the first week, which led to some concerns about the soil's health. I took quick action by removing the top layer of the soil and replacing it with fresh soil mixed with mycorrhiza. To combat any lingering issues, I watered the plants with a solution of Clean Soil and Cannazym to cleanse the medium and support root health. Thankfully, the Runtz plants didn’t seem to be affected negatively—they’ve maintained steady growth and appear happy and healthy! It’s a relief to see their resilience. Looking forward to wrapping up Week 2 with bigger, stronger plants and setting the stage for explosive growth in the coming weeks! Grow Conditions (Week 2): 🌞 Light schedule: 18/6 🌱 PPFD: 450 µmol/m²/s 💧 VPD: ~1.0 kPa 🌟 Thanks for following along. Let’s keep the momentum going! 💪
