Day 21 - she got repotted into her 38 Litre airpot. She is not as close to the lights as I'd like, but saying that I wouldn't mind her to stretch a little bit.

Update; February 14th, 2023. From the moment I flipped to flower, they’ve been exploding with growth! They are super healthy! They grow back and fill in so fast after defoliating, no matter how heavy I go. I’ve added the supplemental lighting (Viparspectra 600) this week to really get the most I can. Figuring out a way to mount it higher.

6 weeks in veg from seedling

4/1 💦💦💦 4/2👍👍👍 4/3 💦🍓z is burning. she should have been topped but I didn't so she's too close to the light, very sensitive on nutrients. Not going to flush, too much work. Just water for her next feed cycle. Also my Ph was too low so that will be fixed to 6.5 from now on. 4/4🍓🍓🦍🍑🎄👍🎥 4/5👍👍👍 4/6💦💦💦

So the last cups I had them in had no drainage, and i think they were damping off or dying. So I did a pretty rough transplant to new soil and cups I probably stunted them but let’s see what happens. Day 10: So wow a lot can happen in a few days, they grew a bit one of the NL seems like it’s the same size, 2nd NL is not doing too bad. The lemon Larry is going through it right now, might’ve been heat stress I can’t think of anything else that can cause that

D57/F13 - 27/05/23 - Added sunset and sunrise (only red lights for 1,5 hours at the start and 1,5 at the end) D58/F14 - 28/05/23 - I set up my AFD (see picture). I find a way to feed her automaticly when I 'll be out, Every day I start the pump for 30 sec (about) to give her 2 liters of nutes with my AFS (Automatic Feeding System) D59/F15 - 29/05/23 - Automatic feeding D60/F16 - 30/05/23 - Automatic feeding D61/F17 - 31/05/23 - Automatic feeding D62/F18 - 01/06/23 - Automatic feeding D63/F19 - 02/06/23 - I'm back, Nora looks ok, automatic feeding works. A little bit of problem with timelaps framing, but it's ok, I've got all info I need. EC 0.9 and pH 6.5

This girl is doing well nice side branches before fiming but find her any way hitting her with the Shogun line up put a vid up of e.c and pH of feed i don't check often as it's always the same roughly just in flower i switch the calmag and silicon for a boost and a pk she's healthy and happy not much to say as she's all good thanks for reading happy growing guys

I haven't done anything with her this week. Things are really speeding up now.

420Fastbuds FBT2308/Week8 What up grow fam. I hope all is good with everyone. Week 8 update on these absolutely stunning girls. They're definitely progressing nicely with the flower sites swelling up. Super frosty and beyond sticky when you happen to touch them. Over all Happy Growing

The first 2 one companion planting a f1photoperiod(documented on another diary) and in a 2L pot are both lemon cherry cookies auto and the last one in a 1L pot is frozen face auto there are 2 sets of 2 side branches streaching on each autoflowers and handeling first set of defoliation and LST extremely well hopefully should see signs of more streaching as coming up to pre flower due to autos genetic makeup

This was my 1st photoperiod grow on growdiaries and I'm glad I tried these Fast flowering photoperiods for it. Big thanks to Heather and the Fastbuds team. The wedding cheesecake auto is one of my favourites strains and i have grown it a number of times but now having a photoperiod version is just great and to flower so fast is brilliant. Because this grow was going so good I decided to switch back to photoperiods for the next few grows i just wish i had left her in veg for 1 more week. Total decent buds dry weight for the grow=136g Light power Total= 200.43Kw 18hrs for 28 days = 504hrs 12hrs for 67 days = 804hrs Total hours for lights= 1308hrs 200.43÷1308=0.153Kw/hr average. Average 153w/hr Total g/W=0.89g/W Power used for grow=508.78Kw @0.30p =£152.63 Each gram cost £1.12 The buds have been curing for nearly 2 weeks so I haven't had a sample yet. There will be more pictures added once I try the buds and write up a smoke review in about a week but for now I'll just leave a video of the grow. Thanks to all who have viewed my diaries and a big thanks to all that posted likes and comments, it's much appreciated.

25/07/2024 Lights On! Light increased: 520watts. Previously I mentioned the wind swept leaves, as well some are heat stress and slite toxicity from residue build up. Next grow, I'll connect all 3 buckets together and setup a mini system with resviour; should of done it from the start. Never-mind 27/07/2024 Lights On! 3 x 15L Buckets installed! Defolled and dimmed light to 420watts. 28/07/2024 Lights On! Increased light: 530watts Short Vid vid! 30/07/2024 Lights On! Mid-day! Lights Increased to 550watts NEXT GROW GETTING READY! (SCENE CHANGE!) Yellow Green - The Future X DC Seeds Yellow - Monkey Slapz X PreyBirds1 Red - Freaky Pablo X TerpyZ 31/07/2024 Lights On!

These 2 girls are still growing strong 💪 The smells coming from doing a stem rub are ridiculous! If you've ever smelled blue dream in flower, it smells pretty much exactly like that which makes sense since blue dream is one of the parents of Tropical Cooler. The plant on the left has buds with more hairs and the plant on the right has more of a pale yellow on the hairs compared to the left. I'm interested to see if there will be any more differences between the 2 phenos. Also, the top fan leaves on the left have some purple starting to creep in!! 😬I'm geeked to see what they become! Happy Growing everyone!!

Still has to cure but nice white ash. Buds are really sticky.

NOTE 1: Afgooey Auto pheno #3 turns out it's a MALE. Resembled nothing like her two sisters ran at the same time. In fact, I had to move her to the 12/12 tent to initiate flowering. Little did I know or expect She would be a He. Lola by the Kinks is rattling round my brain about now ;) FEEL FREE TO HIT THE LIKE BUTTON IF YOU LIKE WHAT YOU SEE ;) 2x4 French Macaron - at the time of this posting, FM is heading into week 8 flower. Second extensive flushing w/fresh rain water due to acidic conditions (ph >5). Been struggling with ph the entire flowering. I speculate ph issues due to over feeding. Ph is roughly 5.8 to 6.0 after flushing. At this point, flushing with plain RO water until harvest. NOTE 2: I've introduced two 5 gallon bubble buckets into the 2x4 grow tent. Both buckets have medium air stones running from a 125 gph air pump. Given French Macaron isn't scheduled for harvest until mid-January, I might not have cutting ready. First grow may have to be from seed. Update later. 3x3 Afgooey Autos and clones from previous grow - Afgooey #1 and #2 are firing on all cylinders. #2 running a bit acidic (>5), so flushed back to neutral with roughly 7-8 gallons of fresh rain water ph at 7.0 to 7.2. Same with clones (i.e., ph very low). Flushed with fresh rain water too. A couple days later plants look so much better. Wait till plants nearly dry before next watering. Trimmed and cleaned up three of the clones growing weird. Felt a bit like trimming a bonzai tree. Let's see how they respond.

Week 4 Looking healthy, transplanted to 5gal pot, added recharge to the soil and root ball. Considering that transplanting stresses her out, I’ll defoliate and spread her out week 5. Happy growing!

11/2: I took everybody out of the garden and did some defoliating and sprayed them with boom boom spray and a little tiger bloom for the last time. In addition the potassium deficiency, it looks like several of them have a copper deficiency as well. I'm gonna re-calibrate my Ph meter...thinking it's off. I super-cropped the tallest 5 plants to try and keep the canopy more even, and spent about a half hour training the 4 plants in the upper chamber 11/3: The 5 plants whose tallest branches I super-cropped turned upwards and are doing their thing again. At least 3 more plants need the same treatment now..stretching like crazy. They are dry..watering in the morning. 11/4: I sprinkled a tablespoon of Cavern Culture (bat and seabird guano) onto all of them and watered it in with about 1/2 gallon each, including myco/tricho/beneficial bacteria, humic acid, bembe, terpinator, and cal-mag. I also did some more super-cropping and training on them today. I can't really spread the branches out too much, as I have no space at all to work with, but I managed to get light to more of the lower branches, so that's a win. Tomorrow I'm gonna transplant the one with the curly leaves into a 5 gallon pot and check out whatever's going on with her roots. The extremely curly-leaved plant...ugh...I'd say she's really "sickly", but she's big and bushy and still blooming like crazy....😕 It's like she hates being watered. I've ensured that there are hundreds of little holes in the sides and bottom of her pot and have a half inch airspace beneath it. During the afternoon, I've been leaving the closet door partially open and an industrial fan blowing across the pots to try to get more oxygen to their roots. All, but Curly Sue are doing fine. I'm hoping that maybe a transplant into a 5 gallon pot of perlite-heavy soil mix (roots dusted with myco) will make her straighten out and fly right. I'll water her into the new pot with boomerang and maybe spray her with boom boom spray. Biotabs swears by it as a shock-reducing transplant foliar feed....we'll see. I really hate transplanting when they are this far into flower, but I really don't want her to peter-out before she can finish. Of all the plants, she has the weakest stalk and branches, so...😷 11/5: I transplanted "Curly Sue" into a 5 gallon pot today and watered her in with myco, humic acid, boomerang, and bembe. Fingers crossed.... I removed the oscillating fan from above my lighting so that I could raise the lights several more inches, and added another oscillating fan above the lights that blows down on the plants. The one I removed is still up there too, but blowing across the LED drivers and a pair of the panels. I could still remove the ratchet hangers and just use carabiners to attach the fixture to the "ceiling" of the closet....that would give me another 5 inches of possible ceiling if I end up needing it. 11/6: I fed everybody about 1/3 gallon today, and went heavy on phosphorous..a heavy dose of tiger bloom, along with a normal dose of beastie bloomz, bembe, cal-mag, signal, big bloom, and a 1/3 dose of grow big. It's been raining for 24 hours and the humidity is off the charts, so I dialed up the ac infinity to come on any time it exceeds 55% RH and increased the fan speed on the floor of the closet to try and dry them out quicker than usual. 11/7: Did pretty much nothing to the bigger plants in the bottom today and only did a little training to two of the shorter ones in the top section. 11/8: I collected a bunch of rainwater over the past 48 hours and gave everybody about 1/3 gallon including cal-mag, signal, bembe, armor si, and a little bit of tiger bloom..still seeing some signs of phosphorous deficiency here and there. I took a bunch of photos and video while I had some of them out of the closet. 😍 Curly Sue continues to bud up, but she's still curly as hell. No way the old growth will correct itself, but I was hoping to see a few new sugar leaves be straighter than the rest..
