It’s frosty time these bruccies are putting out trichomes like nobodies business!! This update is coming in at around halfway through week 9 as I’ve been very busy recently and haven’t been able to give the girls quite as much attention but boy oh boy are they doing well. Stopped pruning and trimming of any sort, just letting them run their course now. Switched big bud for overdrive, I read online that overdrive is more beneficial for calyx production so hoping they continue to bulk up a bit before I harvest. Was under the impression that autos would be finished by week 11, leaving for a trip around that time so I will be forced to harvest the girls then, regardless of how mature they are. Ideally they would go for another 4 weeks but it is what it is, my first grow and it’s been an enormous learning experience. Just bought some 3 bears OG from the Mephisto restock, super hyped on these. Also hoping to grab a few of their new illuminautos as well when they drop tomorrow. Gotta set my alarm for that!! Really hyped on this upcoming run, learned so much from these bruccies that I’m ready to put into the Mephistos.

Bonus material- my cannabutter pics. No smoke report for a while but I can give you an edibles report in a few hours 😂 Plant #1 suffered gravely and thus was harvested early, dried, and turned into beaaautiful butter/edibles hehe. The rest of it is box drying and I'll be doing the same with that. The top of the plant (first harvest of sorts, after bud rot discovered) was 49g dry, not inc ofc what was binned. I'll let you know the dry weight of the rest but no point giving you a smoke report. She was cut early and suffered a looooot The purple lemonade began as the underdog and quickly took over as my #1 babe. It was far more resilient to environmental conditions and changes- and let's not forget that they went through a hurricane with me and power out for a few days! I don't find her strong on the nose at all despite how big some of her buds are, and how frosty. Very piney, and that dominates everything else. Very excited to see what terps come out more in the cure though- I hear great things about this strain. She was cut today and is hanging in a dark closet with small fan, RH 65% and temp 22c. I did not take a wet weight, but she's heavy. Super looking forward to smoking this one, after a few more weeks of TLC... Sigh. Always we try to wait haha. I will report back when I have more for you all. Thanks to everyone that answered my questions and supported me through my first grow. I've definitely got the bug now and there'll be no stopping me haha Will be back with smoke report and dry weights laterrr 🇨🇦 --- Nov 12 - Plant dried for 6 days. It is a lot airier than I thought it was going to be, so most of it ended up as shake for edibles or something. I ended up with 38g of big bud, 33 of smaller, and over 40g of larf and shake. Even the big buds are airy though, not dense at all. A little disappointing for sure, but I made a lot of mistakes so it isn't a surprise. It is now in jars with humidity packs and I'll report back in a couple of weeks or so with a smoke report :)

Chery Cola is one of my favorites and I just could not fix this one. I canceled this grow and threw most of it away. I vegged wrong and something happened to the dirt. grow a total loss... all the plants from this grow were junk, all from bugs. I had transplant issues, I got Bud Trainer cups for next time. I should have topped her but I didn't she was really really small. I have never grown this strain with any success at all.....I am starting over with a new one.... I fail at every attempt at Banana Purple Punch.... I will get it right next time!! even screwed up Apricot and that is almost impossible.... I think I will re-do this entire grow. The last one turned out beautiful.

Esta semana seleccionamos las plantas más adelantadas de nuestro cultivo, para colocarlas bajo la nueva luminaria Led LazerLite Pro 720 de The Pure Factory, con la potencia ajustada al 50%. Miramos de que las cuatro variedades estén representadas bajo el led y bajo las lamparas HID, de esta forma podremos ver las diferencias entre los dos sistemas. Seguimos con nuestra rutina de fertilización para la fase vegetativa Grow Soldier + Green Mystic by JUJU Royal y CALMAG de BioBizz. Al final de la semana, cambiamos el ciclo lumínico para pasar a 12/12 Floración.

Tag 56 - Ende der 8. Woche. Die Blüten werden weiterhin dicker und nehmen langsam ihre Form an. Die Stigmen haben sich schon vereinzelt verfärbt und fallen langsam ein. In der nächsten Woche werde ich den Dünger nochmal anpassen und langsam aber sicher damit beginnen, die trichome zu kontrollieren um den Zeitpunkt für die Spülung nicht zu verpassen. Wir beginnen nun mit der Blütewoche 6. Laut Hersteller dürfte die Pflanze noch etwa 2-3 Wochen brauchen, ich glaube das dürfte hinhauen. An Tag 50 wurde die Pflanze gedüngt. Nährstofflösung: 2 ml/l - B-52 Advanced Nutrients. 4 ml/l - pH Perfect Sensi Bloom Part A 4 ml/l - pH Perfect Sensi Bloom Part B 2 ml/l - Bud Candy Advanced Nutrients. 2 ml/l - Big Bud Advanced Nutrients. Davon hat die Pflanze 1l an Tag 50 erhalten.

Не прошло и 8 недель, как растишка наконец зацвела🌿, при этом резко прибавила в росте. Снизил дозу базовых удобрений до половины таблицы, и всё вроде пришло в норму. Кстати, общение с супортом AN оставило неоднозначное впечатление, мне даже показалось что у них на вопросы отвечает бот😃 Уже вижу, что досвет нужно было чуть выше закрепить, но мне пока лень лезть в эти джунгли, может быть позже отрегулирую правильную высоту, уже когда полностью прекратится рост растишки. В остальном всё хорошо, жду появление одуванов. Только вперед и только вверх! 👆 upd 02.11 Представляю соседок: в левом дальнем углу тёзка LSD от MasterSeeds, ей я на раннем этапе делал FIM-подрезку, которую она толком не заметила, уже 90см и сильно прёт дальше, видимо придется ломать макушку. В левом ближнем углу Super Skunk от Seedstockers, в начале пути сильно тормозила, сейчас вроде нагнала остальных. 👉планирую добавить еще один досвет😎 - диоды deep red специально для цветения, на отдельной планке, оставайтесь на связи👈 Спасибо, что заглянули, и будьте здоровы! 🙏 Продолжение следует ...😶

Nach 2 Wochen im Glas und bei vorherigen suboptimalen trocken Möglichkeiten . Schlägt mir aber Der Gorilla mit Punch ins Gesicht beim öffnen JETZT ist fast nur noch Typisch GG4 zu inhalieren mit auch Beeren bzw Grand Daddy Purple aroma vermutlich von Purple Punch der wie von FastBuds versprochen auch so riecht und schmeckt wie es soll. Da das meine ersten 2 Genetiken von ihnen war habe ich die selben Sorten nochmal bestellt nur Statt "Alter Tobi " und Mittelerde kommt jetzt "Longbottom Haze " und Hogwarts 😆

3/14 Random hot day here, lights on temps ran upto 88 for about a half hour, when I got here I increased fan speed and got temps stabilized at 78. Thankfully I run lights on at night. 3/15 Flushed and hand fed plants tonight mold and hermie check complete. TB and BC really started to fatten up. Used 16oz can to illustrate current growth. (label hidden, not intentionally trying to advertise, can remove pics if not in compliance) 3/19 GSC cola starting to fatten up, some of the hairs on all but GSC are starting to yellow. 3/20 BC main cola is 75% cloudy, no signs of ambers. Breeder says 10 weeks cumulative life span but i think she will run 80 to 90. TB still a lot of clear probably 85 to 95 days, GG is a wild card sue to her structure, and GSC buds aee swelling. Cold damp weather ahead. Carefullysprayed leaves only down with sm90 as preventative measure. Tomorrow starts week 11

Start of day 63 hereNot much that I can mess up just flushing with r/o water PH 6.4. However I've learned a lot over the last couple of weeks, thanks to all the great advice and photos in every diary here. My big lessons are that you add nutes at a considerably lesser rate than recommended, in my case especially since I amend my grow medium. Also add all nures in the correct order and ph before finally adding any innoculent such as my home made lactobacillus. I'm working on the don't over water in veg thingy. I learned that I really need more distance on the lights in bloom, as I finally raised them 2 inches a few days ago and have probably doubled the size of yield by doing that alone, they literally jumped up. Finally, well so far I see from a lot of other diaries that I've been wasting a ton of space, so I will try a SoG on my next grow to get a better yield. Checked the trychomes this morning , mostly still frosty a few opaque no amber. Allright thanks again and leave a couple for seed. Day 66 getting close, may harvest tomorrow. I took 2 plants to my brother and he was impressed enough to order some MARS HYDRO and such. We put the 2 plants I gave him in the yard until he gets a closet setup. So my harvest will just be 2 plants. But hey, I'm no longer his gardner haha. Posted a few pics the trychomes today are starting to turn. Happy happy. Day 69 we drove by a dead skunk today and my wife started waving her hand in front of her nose while lowering the window. I couldn't smell a thing. So I guess that's why I clicked, smells normal.

Hoy es el día 1 (día 35 desde la germinación) de floración de nuestras 3 plantas de Tropicanna Poison XL AUTO. Las plantas han sido sometidas a un entrenamiento LTS con piezas 3D para ver cómo funciona este tipo de entrenamiento. Los 3 fenotipos se diferencian claramente a simple vista, dada la diferencia de portes de cada una. La primera planta es la más alta y tiene un porte muy abierto. La segunda planta es más baja y tiene un porte más compacto. La tercera planta es de tamaño intermedio y tiene un porte intermedio. Esperamos que este entrenamiento ayude a las plantas a desarrollar su máximo potencial. Seguiremos publicando actualizaciones sobre su evolución.

Rolling into week 7. Time to dial down the nutes and start my UVB regiment. I use Reptisun 10.0 bulbs due to LED UV's giving far less than optimal performance. Reptisun 5.0 bulbs work 2. I only run them from week 7 to flush and for only 3 hours a day within the current light cycle. Update day 45: After doing a trichome check, it finished EARLY!! Time to do a quick flush then harvest. I was going to add the nutes to the fresh water today 😂😂

Hello Growmies, We’ve entered week 10, and the Watermelon Candy F1 Hybrids stand as a testament to the art of cultivation. Sharing the tent with Epic Buzz and Red Banana Pudding, they've reveled in the same meticulously controlled environment, with each plant exuding its unique vibrance. The fade has begun its delicate dance, a visual symphony of hues signaling the nearness of harvest. This gradual shift is not just a visual treat but also a sign of the plants channeling their energy into the dense, trichome-laden buds that have developed into rock-hard nuggets. The intense, pungent aroma that fills the air is a prelude to the flavors and effects to come. Watermelon Candy #1 stands out with its remarkable bud structure, its stature commanding attention amidst its siblings. Not to be outdone, Watermelon Candy #2 and #3 boast their own magnificent floral nodes, each a promising indication of the bountiful harvest that looms a mere two weeks away. The TrolMaster's environmental control has been nothing short of exceptional, keeping the conditions optimal for these final and decisive stages of flowering. Our unwavering nutritional regimen has supported the plants without the need for alteration, ensuring a finish as robust as the care provided. As we anticipate the impending harvest, we're reminded that cultivation is as much about the journey as it is about the destination. The hard nuggets and the powerful scent are clear markers of success, yet it's the anticipation of the cut that holds a certain thrill—a culmination of weeks of dedicated effort. Soon, we'll have the privilege of trimming and curing the fruits of our labor, but until then, we watch and wait as the Watermelon Candy F1 Hybrids prepare to reveal their final, glorious form. Stay lifted, and ready for the harvest that awaits, Salokin

420Fastbuds FBT2304 Week 9 Hello everyone from far and wide on this beautiful planet. Weekly update for these twins. Both seem to be in mid flower on cruise control with no big issues present. I'll most likely stop feeding nutes this week and just go with ph'd water after that till harvest. All the colas on both are super chunky so it'll be exciting to see how the next week or two turn out. All in all Happy Growing
