Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. This is my second cultivation ever and it will be fun to try a bigger space than my closet grow. First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom. I put some pictures on the construction here in week one. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of ​​3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable theme in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 8 pcs 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. But there are no cultivation rooms to be displayed here, so I continue with what is most important. Today I have put my seeds in my moisture dome and hope the seeds have germinated within a few days. I am very excited to see how the new growroom will work and how this Blue cheese Auto from Royal queen seeds will turn out. Blue Cheese automatic cannabis seeds are a cross of Blueberry Automatic and Cheese Automatic that has been perfected over five years of breeding and careful selection. The result is a feminized, autoflowering strain with superior yield, flavor, and effects to either of its distinguished parent strains. THC: 16% CBD: Low Yield Indoor : 325 - 375 gr/m2 Yield Outdoor: 60 - 110 gr/plant Height Indoor: 40 - 70 cm Height Outdoor: 60 - 110 cm Flowering: 7 - 8 weeks Harvest month: 9-10 weeks after planting Genetic Background: Blueberry x Cheese x Ruderalis Type: Sa 35% In 40% Ru 25% Effect: Cerebral and uplifting Climate: Mild .............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. Update 2017-08-15. All 4 seeds have germinated and planted in small pots inside the humidity dome. I'm so glad it worked so well and now it's just hoping they'll start growing and become 4 big healthy girls :) ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Update 2017-08-16. I have mixed my own soil today. Its 40% sieved peat harrow H2-H4 0-30 mm, 45% sieved peat harrow H4-H6 0-30 mm. 5% sand and 10% of compost soil. And i use 15% of perilite and mix it all together. ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ Update 2017-08.20. Nr1 and 2 grow and thrive. Number 3 just got rid of the seedpod and is folding out the sheets. Number 4 is a bit shy and can only be seen if you look carefully into the soil. ......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Update 2017-08-21. Nr 1 and 2 is doing well. Nr3 is trying to catch up and Nr4 is still shy. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-23. Transplanted 2 girls from humidity dome and the small germinating pots to 15 liter autopots. The other 2 girls have to wait a little more before transplant to the autopots. ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ 2017-08-27. The girls have settled in to there new home of the 15 liters autopot after a little transplant chock. Now the real week 1 starts for me and the girls. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-28. New pic and movies. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-28. Nr3 is transplanted in 15 liter autopot. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-29. New movie of the girls. Its no water for 3 days now for Nr1 and 2 so the roots develop more and match the plant above the soil. The temp controlled fan is awesome, its easy to set what temp you like to have in the room. Right now its 28 celcius. And humidity is 56%. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2017-08-29. Hello to you who read my diary, I just want to say that I am pleased that you have chosen to check in with me and in my diary. I just want to say that I do this for myself and for a steady flow of my medicine. Everything you read and see in my diary is 100% honest and I will never distort or beautify anything here. I document my crops so that I can learn from my mistakes and also to look back at those different crops. I try to update with pictures every day and with text if something special has happened in the garden. This is my strainhunt for the best medicine and the beginning of my journey with cannabis and the cultivation of it. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-30. Cleaned the room this morning, just vacuuming and cleaning with chlorine solution. Im testing the fan to control temp and humidity, it works great. Added some pics with measurements and movie. Everything is looking great right now. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-31. New pics and videos. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-01. New pics and videos. Gave each of the girls with 2 ml Alg-A-Mic, 4ml Bio-Grow, 4ml Bio-Heaven and 10 ml Formulex mixed in 2 liters of water.

The girls got 2 liters of water each with nutes in it, added a video. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-06. KL 08.00. The girls woke up after their beauty sleep, the leaves are always a bit down after 6 h of darkness, but they will stretch now when the HPS lamp starts. Everything looks good and I keep trying to tuck the leaves so they get the maximum amount of light where needed. Added pics and video. The Nr 3 girl is still a little bit behind the other 2 girls and all the 3 girls look like there 3 different pheno of the same plant. KL 23.30. Did some LST. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-07. Day 21 from sprouting, Nr3 is 17 days from sprouting. I have never tested PH in my grows, when growing organic in soil iv learned that it adapt PH by it self. But im curious by nature so i had to test. Kl 10.00 Tested PH in the soil, it was 6.9 and tested my tap water and it was 6.8. Added a video of the girls, its 10 H after defoliation, LST and leaftucking. I think its looking good. Kl 22.30. New pics.

I’ve lost two of the four arms I was trying to save 😢 one snapped clean and the other is standing dead. No worries cause there is plenty left to take care of! I’ve built a 4.8m x 4.8m x 3.0m enclosure and now that I’ve splayed everything out there’s barely any room to move again haha absolutely loving it 🌴 I’ve stripped a good 1.5m of bottom plant material clean of side branches and foliage partially for energy distribution and airflow but also partially to bring the obvious foliage above the neighbouring properties tree line now if anyone peeks over they should see a bunch of sticks instead of a forest of sticky :p They are definitely in flower I think I’m at the end of pre-flower stretch. They’ve reached the top of the enclosure so I’ve pulled most of the tall arms over and I think they’ve stopped reaching meaning the next few weeks should produce some fun material to post up Thanks everyone for following along

It is in bloom growing each day, I did defoliation the first day of the week and a little more training the LST The first two days of the week I sprayed both plants with BAC Foliar Spray just before lights out.... Every day I put CO2 pellets in a glass of water while the lights are on.

Day 28. She’s just beautiful and bushy and growing. She’s just about to enter her flowering stage. She has her pistals out and has that pinched look. I’m very happy with how she’s turning out. Huge beautiful girl of course with hubbabubba involved how could she not be a beast ♥️♥️♥️🤫🔥

This grow went so smooth it felt like it was really just on auto pilot. I’d give the girls daily look overs, but for the most part they did their own thing. 420fastbuds seeds are def legit and worth trying. 10/10- they got 48 hours of darkness, dried for 13 days in a dark room at 62 degrees and 60%rh, cured for a month in terplock bags and came out beyond top shelf.

Young lady has grown quite a bit this week. I have added an osculating fan mid week. I have installed a net today to start a field of green.

This was another fun week. I did some defoliation to open up all the bud sites. That took a little longer than I was expecting. This is the largest plant I have ever grown, and I'm learning there are some differences in growing a big girl, the first being she takes longer to defoliate. The second is the amount of water she drinks. I'm watering her a full gallon ever other day and she is taking it all.

Everything looking good this week happy with the vegetative stage with the th Seeds original Bubblegum. Says they are an ibl strain so the genetics should be stable, which is less chance of 10 different phenos ( update me If I’m wrong here, still learning ) Day 54 - today I did the last defoliation and lst 2 days before swith to 12/12. Middle growth was insane so spread them out abit by screwing small screws in to the pot and using the as a tie down Day 55 - all plants seemed to have bounced back the day after and look exactly how I planned so far so good Day 56 - final day of vegetative growth all seems good, all females showing white hairs , have raised the lights and turned Intake to full to maintain humidity levels and switched lights to 12 / 12.

In the video you can see quite well how much work the defoliation of Mrs. Jealousy has been. I had to graze so many nodes and internodes, really gigantic, these genetics. We'll see how it goes. I can already imagine it. What do you mean?! So, I'm going to call it a day for today. Food is waiting. Take care & bee 🐝 positive! Yours Alpha_Green Hello dear garden friends, I hope you are doing well and everyone is high in the sky. Finally, the American election campaign has come to an end. I can't hear all this anymore. So let's start right away with new photos from this morning and of course a few suggestions from me. The profile of my beloved Sour Jealousy now resembles that of a closed tulip. It will soon reach its full potential and bloom as if there were no tomorrow. Last night I personalized the conditions a little more precisely and adapted them to the respective growth. Since Lady Jealousy is still withering a bit, I keep the humidity just about at the reasonable limit of tolerability for both fully flowering Sweet Seeds ladies. I think temperature and humidity is a good but necessary compromise here. Different strains require different conditions. Especially when growth is so different. I also find the tribes of the three protagonists interesting... In my opinion, it tells us a lot about the selection of phenotypes in breeding. So my dears, the day takes its toll. Time to sleep. Thank you all for being out there. Like-minded and motivated to share our efforts around the cultivation of these enchanting plants. Thank you for this wonderful gift of being able to grow. Nothing can be taken for granted in this world. Not even happiness and peace. Take care and bee 🐝 positive! Yours Alpha_Green Hello again…. 👋 This morning the buds of the Dark Devil lady, which was harvested a little too early, came out to dry. I tried a little in the vaporizer. And I would like to take this opportunity to express great praise. The effect and taste are really very pleasant, although it was not quite there yet. And a berry-scented taste - very pleasant. I'm already looking forward to the perfectly matured lady then even more... 🤩 Yes, everything is going great at the moment. I'm really happy and satisfied with all the girls. Tomorrow my Sweed Seeds Jealousy package will be delivered from Spain. Despite the circumstances there with so much suffering due to storm disasters, super punctual. I'm already mega excited about it. Sweed Seed also presents a brand new hybrid strain. It hides or unfolds 55% indica and 45% sativa parts. Can't wait: Jealousy Z XL Auto Sweed Seeds I think this will be my first run of the Homebox! Yes!!! Oh, I almost forgot to mention that from today on the 8 side radiators are active for 12 hours each during a daily cycle. Predominantly 640 – 780 nm. Dark Devil is definitely really poisonous, wow - awesome turn... I had a 3-month break, that's noticeable... ;-)) A little mental excursion at the end of week 7: "Freedom"... We cause ourselves the most stress, because we have a completely distorted conception of freedom. Freedom does not mean being able to do everything you feel like doing. The assumption of having to do something all the time, is the main reason for stress. Only, when we have internalized, that we don't have to do, what we don't want to do: Only then, we are free.
