Hey Guys! The last 2-3 weeks have been somewhat difficult. The “Load shedding” cut-offs has increased to stage +5 level which means 5 hours without electricity each day! 😒 🤢 Suck’s right? Well, that ain’t where my headache ends. To make matters even worse, due to all the on/off intervals our suburbs Sub-Station Transformer blew out - causing an overload & tripping the emergency leakage right after it gets switched back on. Then it’s a waiting game as City Officials needs to manually override the system, sometimes waiting up to 6 hours for them to respond to the call-out. Trying to keep things in check as best I can has taken its toll. Thus I’ve made the decision to harvest a little earlier than planned. I’ve noticed the flush taking affect underneath the leaves which is good enough for me at this point! (Besides, my smoke jar has been empty for almost 2 weeks now) - Thus why I’ve decided to harvest a little early than normal. I had started with the flush on 2 July after 8,5 weeks into reproductive stage. Initially planned to flush them down for 2-3 weeks until the flower period had reached 12-13th weeks total. ∴ 10 day flush done!

Hey everyone :-). The last plants were also placed in the bloom chamber kammer. Everyone has made great progress this week 🙏🏻. There is not much to say about this week, I think videos and pictures say more like words 🙈😎. I wish you all a good start into the week :-) Stay healthy and let it grow 🙏🏻👍

E passata la prima settimana e sono rimasto veramente sorpreso! Non ho mai visto una crescita così veloce è vigorosa in una autofiorente, come da regola una buona genetica alla base è tutto! Queste sono genetiche autofiorenti Veramente di alta qualità, di un altro livello! Adesso parliamo degli sviluppi e cambiamenti.... Una crescita esplosiva in ognuna di loro specialmente nella Strawberry milk and Qookies Remix che sembra essere la più alta e spessa tra tutte (per adesso), tutte stanno veramente molto bene anche perché ho preparato una tabella di nutrizione veramente molto ricca e completa, sto utilizzando tutta la linea connoiseur più tutti gli additivi e stimolatori di advanced nutrients e come sempre, devo dire che il loro lavoro si vede! Potete già vedere in soli 7 giorni una crescita esplosiva (sul substrato) di trichoderma, micelio, e batteri (si vede quando il substrato sembra umido ma in realtà è asciutto), questi sono piccoli segnali che mi fanno capire che nelle loro bottiglie ci sta un vero e proprio ecosistema! Non sto seguendo la loro tabella e neanche i loro ml, ho preparato un alimentazione in base alla mia esperienza e conoscenza, per ora è tutto alla grande ed è fantastico perché penso che le autofiorenti devono avere una germinazione perfetta per poter dare tutta la loro vigorosità nel seguito... Dopo questa partenza, night owl è entrato nel mio cuore perché non è solo una di loro ad essere più veloce e vigorosa ma sono tutte è 4 quindi parliamo che ogni incrocio che fa questo ragazzo deve essere un grande successo 😍!.... Io vi vorrei invitare a tutti a seguire la sua pagina personale Instagram così da poter vedere tutti i suoi crossing , perché sono uno più bello dell'altro! Autopot ancora non l'ho avviato ma ho acceso le pompe ad aria con AIRDOME in ogni vaso in modo che possano avere un po' di ossigeno in più le radici. Per adesso ho avviato il progetto con una lampada Mars hydro ts1000 solo perché ha un buon spettro tendente al bianco ed infatti si e rivelata un successo per la germinazione, ma tra altri 7 giorni cambierò la lampada ed installerò la lampada per il quale ho avviato questo progetto, sto parlando della fantastica EAGLE SERIES E520 di growers republic il quale sono diventato un loro tester è volevo prendermi due parole per ringraziarti tantissimo per il loro supporto e sostegno, sono delle persone fantastiche sempre pronte ad aiutare ed ascoltare il coltivatore (non tutti sono così, tipo con Mars hydro tutto questo lo puoi solo sognare...con loro ho avuto veramente una brutta esperienza infatti utilizzo le loro lampade solo per germinare i semi. Fanno led buoni per il prezzo che offrono ma onestamente il servizio clienti fa veramente piangere!) . Growers republic è una azienda che ascolta il coltivatore e ha un approccio diretto con te ed è veramente molto attenta ad ogni minimo tuo particolare, e volevo consigliare a tutti voi di andare sul loro sito a vedere i loro prodotti perché fanno veramente paura! Lampade led di prima qualità a partire dal design innovativo che si presenta abbastanza massiccio (non come il resto delle aziende che produce led plastificati), lo spettro fa veramente rabbrividire perché ha un IR potenziato è si vede tantissimo! È stata anche progettata per avere la temperatura sotto controllo è non supera i 35c di calore! Sprigiona ben più di 1400 umol/j essendo così una delle lampade più potenti che ho mai provato Potete trovare i led growers republic qui: https://growers-republic.com/ Quindi ricapitolando: Midnight Marathon F4 91 Grapes Strawberry milk and Qookies Remix Hervey Wellbanger Queste sono le genetiche che sto coltivando in questo progetto con Night owl ..... Spero che possa interessare a qualcuno di voi e spero tanto che sia stato di aiuto per qualcuno ! Grazie mille a tutti gli sponsor: Growers republic Autopot Night owl Advanced Nutrients E un grande grazie a tutti il pubblico di growdiaries che è passato di qui lasciando un like per il supporto! Grazie infinite a tutti voi 🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼❤️

Week 4! We're getting close to flower and so far everything looks well! This is what happened in this week: - I did some LST! 😁 - I increased the amount of nutrients and it seems the girls like it! - The plant on the front is growing more than the one on the back, even when both might look about the same in the timelapse. I also think they need more water. It feels (I could be wrong here) the roots are not reaching the bottom of the pot and I fear they might get root-bound because of that. So next week I'll saturate the pot with water and I'll probably try to tuck some of the fan leaves, the lower branches need some more light. 👌 Thanks for reading and see you all next week! 😃

Day 47 - I topped, defoliated and flushed with plain ph’d water 10 days before switch to 12/12 These led lights keep the plants really short with a lot of middle bushy growth have already taken 2 bags full of leaves and all look healthy still🤞👍 Day 48 - Looking good day after topping and defoliation :) good sign will update end of week 8 flip to 12/12

Well, it looks as if one of the 3 plants is a male. I live in denial for one more day and then I toss it. Not sure which plant it is, as I painted over the strain names when I painted the cups grey. Smooth. So I will find out soon. Otherwise, good weather and some good growth. Roots are balled up at the bottom of the dutch bucket reservoir, Im sure, because I let the drip go dry for a day or two and the plants were droopin (coco)

🇩🇪 23.12. die untersten Blätter entfernt und die treibe frei gelegt. Die kleinen haben inzwischen genug eigene Blätter um weiter zu wachsen. Ab jetzt wird der Haupttrieb einmal im Bogen über sich selbst zurück wachsen.💛✌️ 21.12. läuft weiterhin nach Plan. 🇬🇧 12.23. Removed the lowest leaves and exposed the shoots. The little ones now have enough leaves of their own to continue growing. From now on, the main shoot will grow back in an arc over itself. 💛✌️ 12.21. Still going according to plan.

Unfortunately ive managed to overwater my young plants when experimenting with a new substrate. They looked really droopy with grey edges and yellowing already, so i decided to restart this post for a second try germinating directly into my living soil, like im used to do it. 📆 [23rd of August] Ive put the 2 remaining seeds directly into my homemade living soil. Exactly 72 hours later, on the 26th, one has popped up and showed their germination leafs. I am planning to repot the plants into their "real" home after about 14 days of vegetation. That is gonna consist of 2 substrate levels in a 40l container. The bottom 2/3 is going to be a mix of peat, pumice, sand & vermiculite, the top third is gonna be a layer of my homemade living soil, which is made of 1/3 peat, 1/3 compost and 1/3 pumice 4-12mm & Spelt Husk 50%/50% (measured by volume) amended with kelp meal, sproutet bean meal, basalt rock dust, microbial mushroom biomass (chitin), oyster grit, gypsum, charcoal, bentonite and tiny amounts of bone meal & horn meal. It is my first time growing in a (partly) nutrient poor substrate. I want to do some kind of Experiment this time, as i have not seen many growers use "hydroponic" /nutrient poor substrate paired with the "living soil" approach & organic feeding. I'm trying to boost the growth by providing plenty of oxygen and water like hydroponics does, without needing to use those mineral salt based fertilizers or frequently having to discard "old" substrate. In my mind this idea would work similar to an "Autopot" system, where you prodive water and oxygen mainly in the bottom with some small amounts of nutrients, but feed mainly from the top by amending. Ive seen this in the "Build a soil" youtube channel. I've set their homes up already a couple weeks ago and moistened it to let it cook together, so the living organisms could colonize the bottom subtrate before transplanting. (Edit: Change of plans, those "homes" are gonna go to my Red Hot Cookies instead, ive just transplanted her right into an 8l pot to become a mother. Its made the same way, without the cooking together in prior part.) The plants are going to be fed purely organic/natural material by top dressing with different amendments like fish hydrolysate, basalt, kelp, gypsum, guano and this "living soil - grow" fertilizer i've showed in the pictures. Furthermore i am going to be using homemade nutrient ferments on cannabis for the first time. Ive already tested those on roses, tomatoes and some houseplants. (made from fish, insect, kelp, aloe vera, guano, kitchen scraps, plants etc). My goal is to additionally boost the plant growth by watering these quickly available nutrients. It should contain all the essential minerals plants need, as well as phytohormones, amino acids, vitamins, humic and fulvic acid, beneficial bacteria and fungi. Stay hyped with me! [Edit Week 4] I am not as happy with the results as ive expected it. The plants are looking pretty fine and growing nicely, but i dont see any benefit compared to pure living soil yet. It almost seems like the plant is growing a little bit slower than usual and just needs to be fed more with this method, i dont see any "hydro like" boost happening... Maybe i needed to fertigate her more often and topdress more, i didnt want to try out too much though as i want to keep this plant as a mother. I dont have much time to do experiments with clones, so im probably just going to go for it as planned and hope that they will like the system in the big 40l pots. Probably going to amend the soil heavier then by topdressing more and fertilize with every watering later in veg - until mid/late flower.

CBD Blue Shark Day 21 - 2020.01.21: Hello friends, I'm sorry for being delinquent in commenting on this grow; I got hit by a car last autumn and I'm still struggling a bit with depression and anxiety (hence the weed!). Let me assure you that the Shishkaberry from last year was very helpful 😌 So to begin with I have to thank Barney's Farm for their great genetics. These seeds can be found as part of their High CBD Cannabis Strains Collection: https://www.barneysfarm.com/cbd-blue-shark-11 Ok, all 3 young plants are doing well at the end of the third week (calculated from when the taproots were put into the Jiffys). This week I started the regular fertigation schedule for the vegetative period. I'm getting very precise with the measuring of the nutrients, I'm using some industrial syringes for accuracy like Dr. Coco recommends. The TDS is high - I'm working on it. Next week I think they'll be ready to top to begin the HST. Alright gang, I'll close for now, with love. 😊

Oramai non riesco a metterle più nella grow se non incanstradole una nell'altra. Questo comporta che le piante prendono luce solo sopra, sto cercando di ovviare al problema mettendole al sole ogni volta che posso. Oggi 52 giorni dalla semina è il 6 marzo 2021.

6cm decstetch mais là fini je pense! Température 14-28 degrés plante fine et élancé

Die Kush Mint hat sich in den letzten zwei Wochen sehr gut entwickelt und deshalb haben wir sie am 13ten Tag getoppt. Düngetechnisch halten wir uns an den Düngeplan von Hy-Pro mit einem EC Wert von 1,2. Sie zeigt keine Anzeichen von Überdüngung sondern wächst und streckt sich dem Licht schön entgegen. Die Genetik von Super Strain hat das Topping sehr gut vertragen und die Kush Mint wächst bereits am nächsten Tag weiter, als wäre nichts gewesen. Das stimmt uns sehr positiv und freuen uns auf die nächste Grow-Woche mit ihr. Wie findet ihr sie? 😎

The plant is looking great, there isn’t much to say. The weather has been a great help on this grow, and apart from the little N over feeding all is looking good. Buds are starting to get FAAT.

Well not really much too update everything is still going well i guess, purple queen is really slow with starting to set flower mode is that normal with this strain? Or I’m i just not patient enough 😅 sticky beast is going really well also going strong into week 5! My best one most be the runtz #1 that is in week 6 the other one is chasing it but like I said already i broke the main root (not all the way) while lsting her. I put some ducktape on her but i think she will take a little longer then the number 1

Hey everyone :-) This week it smells more and more sweet and fruity in the whole room 😍. There is actually not much to report, everyone is now under 12/12 :-). This is the last grow that comes in the entire diary. From now on, each plant will be added to the diary 👍. I wish you all a lot of fun watching, stay healthy 🙏🏻 and let it grow 😎👌

Start of week 5, the smaller plants are taking forever to uptake the water I think that's really caused some stunting 🙁 anyways just gonna let them dry off and refill, see what happens. All of the big girls are looking nice and being fed daily. Clones have started showing some beautiful roots and I can't wait to run a full batch of clones in here. Yeah so it's 9/21 last night I checked all of the clones and 100% have fat white roots popping out the bottom of the Root riot cube so I guess it worked, I filled some one gal pots today and got them all transplanted. 9/24 all clones are looking good, LSD is thriving in the flower room, smells amazing and sticky as can be, seems like stretching is over.
