Was facing some difficulty when it came to lighting (what brand, wattage, output range, full spectrum etc.) Did a watering today with a mix of Epsom salt & purified water which was the 1st nutrient mixture since my ladies been in the soil. A couple of changes made since I've joined GD is I changed the distance of lights to plant (was @ 14-18 now 20-24 inches away thanks for that folks) lighting schedule is still on a 18/6hr. Another trick I choose was the water used...it's either rain water or artesian water both help eliminate unwanted pH unbalance. This is my 1st grow and Im going to post more photos of the entire setup. If you guys&gala have any other helpful tips for a better grow lmk. I also wanted to do a LST on my autos but not quite sure when to do, they're currently coming out of week 2 into week 3 vegg mode. Every tip and hint helps so let em fly.

My Lit Marker plant is really taking off! It's growing so fast, and the leaves are getting bigger every day. They have this cool, pointy shape that reminds me a lot of the Black Valentine plant. It's exciting to see how quickly it's developing, and I can't wait to watch it grow even more. Stay tuned for more updates on this beauty! The weather has been absolutely gorgeous this past week! We've been hitting that sweet spot of 70 degrees during the day, perfect for getting outside and soaking up some sun. Then, it cools down to a comfy 50 degrees at night, which is ideal for sleeping with the windows open. I've been loving all the fresh air! I finally got around to building that little wooden planter for my windowsill. It was a fun project, and now my regular plants have a nice new home. It really brightens up the room, and I'm thinking of adding some herbs to it soon. Maybe I'll even try growing some basil!

This week went a lot better than last, although still not optimal. After last week's transplant they all did well, as you can see in the time lapse. They do all have one or more deformed leaves and a slight calcium deficiency but look otherwise healthy. Increased base water (RO+calmag) EC from 0.3 to 0.4, feeding 0.7EC in total. At the end of the week, the root systems looked very well developed and I transplanted them into their final 5L pots. Decent so far.

Two of the LSD25’s are starting to show their colors, one is quite small but her flowers are densely packed. We will see if she starts to develop the purps soon! They have grown quite a bit since, I had to tie down the top cola on one of the girls because she was getting so tall and lanky. I have minimal room to grow in so I have to manage the height properly since LSD25 can be anywhere from 15-35in tall from what I’ve seen. I still haven’t fed them anything other than, volcanic spring water with Fish Sh!t and Bud Candy. I’m balancing the water out with TnB naturals since the volcanic spring water tends to be either base or slightly alkaline. The reason I use volcanic spring water here and there is to add, calcium, magnesium, potassium, silica and tons of other dissolved fulvic trace minerals from volcanic springs. I usually switch between Fiji and Waiakea spring water. It sounds a bit fancy but I alternate between this and distilled/reverse osmosis. I only use RO/D when mixing with nutrients or when I’m trying to flush nutrients from my mediums. I use volcanic spring water and local spring water from an artesian well when trying to feed a balanced water with minimal inputs.

420 Fastbuds Week 4 Blackberry Auto This week has been awesome for these girls. They have gone into preflower showing off some amazing colors. I did add 1tsp/gal of some GH calimagic to the feeding to combat the few rust spots I saw on a couple lower leafs. Seemed to solve the issue since haven't seen any new spots show up. Will continue to keep the same routine up as it's working just great. All in all Happy Growing

Week 7 went well. Had some good weather. I went away for four days, watered (no nutes) day before I left and think they had a little rain one day while I was gone. Buds have been getting fatter and look healthy. Think I might do water/nutes tomorrow ( 4/5 days after last water) then maybe one more round of nutes before I start flush. Will research when to stop nutes for next update

📆 Semana 3: Semana de adaptación continua en exterior, todavía marcada por tiempo inestable. Se alternan momentos de sol con jornadas nubladas y humedad elevada, lo que mantiene un crecimiento moderado pero constante. Aun así, la planta responde bien, conservando buen color, hojas sanas y nuevos brotes activos. El tallo sigue ganando grosor y la estructura se compacta progresivamente, señal de que se está fortaleciendo frente a las condiciones variables. Se mantienen riegos controlados y espaciados, aprovechando la humedad ambiental y evitando saturaciones innecesarias. Cuando aparece el sol, se aprecia una respuesta rápida en turgencia y ritmo de crecimiento, mostrando buena capacidad de adaptación al entorno exterior. ⚡ EC: 0.5–0.6 💧 pH: 6.2–6.4 🌡️ Agua: 18–20°C 🌫️ Humedad: 60–80% ☀️ Luz: variable con mejores ventanas solares 🌡️ Temp ambiente: 17–24°C 🔥 Nota: El crecimiento lento con clima duro muchas veces es inversión futura; cada día de adaptación construye una planta más resistente. Seguimos creciendo fuerte 💪!

Ive had some really hot days out here bur the airco really saved the day. I can keep my temps at 24c ish on average ranging from 22-27c. Cant really get the humidity down 50s but with loads of airflow I should be fine. Its ranging between 50-60% right now. Theyre smelling quite strong. I am venting out of a windows through a carbon filter and I smell nothing within my house or around. She is getting really frosty and one of them has purple hues in the buds. (Picture 1) One of them is a really odd phenotype (picture 2) with extremely long leaf stems. Which kinda is nice as the buds are looking to grow bigger down at the colas because of this. Hardly have to defoliate that one. Edit: decided to add some cal-mag at half stength to the watering. She was showing signs of a calcium deficiency. Ppm was in range aswel as the PH, so it must be calcium deficiency as it only shows at leaves closest to the light. Yellowing also started appearing on the top.

I didn't bother updating the diary last week as there was nothing going on really, just finished the 1st week of flushing and another week till harvest. Only big change going on is the hps and little viparspectra LEDs have been taken out and replaced by 2x invisible sun ISH265 quantum boards.

📅 D43 - 26/09 📜New res and new light setup (only bloom lights): so T decreased and I need to take under control the H. Changed res with flowering mix. EC is 2 and pH 6. Removed SCroG net. ✍️ 2 EC ♒ 6 pH 🌊 10 L 📏 50 cm 📅 D44 - 27/09 📜 Posed a new SCroG net over the buds, only to give a support and guide the buds. As EC is raising, today I will give her only 2 L of water with only calmag and hydroguard. I purchased another lamp, that will arrive tomorrow with dimmers both on bloom and veg lights ✍️ 2,2 EC ♒ 6 pH 🌊 10 L 📏 55 cm 📅 D45 - 28/09 📜 Added of fresh water as the EC is raising too much. Let see if I've to add more later, trying to take EC under control. pH is quite stable , but it always goes decreasing and never raising. NEw lamp setup: I've purchased one that seems really good with 2 dimmers for both VEG and BLOOM lights. Very compact but powerful. Now I put bloom dimmer on 100% and veg dimmer on 80%. I'm not sure about the light time: the product sheet say 9-12/24 but now I'm 18/24. I will sniff around others diary to see what to do. ✍️ 1,8 EC ♒ 5,9 pH 🌊 9 L 📏 60 cm 📅 D46 - 29/09 📜 Added 1 other L. of fresh water and stabilize the EC 0n 1,5 and pH 6.1 I decided to keep the ligths on 18/24. Nothing else to report ✍️ 1,5 EC ♒ 6,1 pH 🌊 9 L 📏 65 cm 📅 D47 - 30/09 📜 So far so good. EC and pH are stable now and Lucy is healty and she's growing very fast. ✍️ 1,5 EC ♒ 6,1 pH 🌊 9 L 📏 65 cm 📅 D48 - 01/10 📜 Added 2 L with EC = 1,4 and pH= 6,1. Now the res is stable on EC 1,6 and pH 6,1. She's drinking about 2 liters and more every day. Tomorow I will report last day of 2nd flowerng week, So the harvest should be in the middle of November. ✍️ 1,6 EC ♒ 6,1 pH 🌊 9 L 📏 70 cm 📅 D49 - 02/10 📜 Last day of second week. Lucy is growing a lot and my tent is very small. I could consider to buy another tent, we will see. Added 2 L of water with only calmag and Hydro. I will keep the res untile the middle of next week. ✍️ 1,5 EC ♒ 6,1 pH 🌊 8 L 📏 75 cm

dear grow community, I report back with the fifth week of my royal gorilla auto grow. This week my plants have started to flower. They have grown extremely well and I have a lot of fun taking care of them. I have now stopped using LST as I want the plants to grow upwards. I have also changed my fertilizer. I also changed my sodium vapor lamp from veg to flower. I'm looking forward to see my babies flower and hopefully produce big buds. I am mostly satisfied with the strain, but one plant has began to flower realy early as you can see in the picture. best wishes absolutgrow

Today I moved two plants to their final pot (3.5 gal). Each of the plants has 2 nicely formed nodes. The root structure looked very strong. They were started in Pro-Mix HP and transplanted into the same medium. I just sprayed PH balanced water on the top of the soil to help them acclimate to the new pot. I still have 2 plants that have stopped growing so I am going to leave them in the seedling chamber till they get a little farther along.

Sunday, February14th. The § G are growing super Vigor. Topped them 2 Days ago, I cleaned up the whole Plant too That means , taking away small shoots in The " Basement" Today i topped again, Now the Plant has 16 Colas. And i performed some Bondage on them I think iam going to send them in Flower Very soon ( in a few Days), becxause they are already tall enough. I just let them recover P.s The color of the Plants is lus dark green, they just get Water with Beneficals from @GreenBuzzLiquids, because the Soil is amended with Easy Boost organic Nutrition Lights are still running on 50 percent. And doing a Great Job Iam very happy with the Dimmable SP-3000 Here are the Links for the Tentnt and Light: Light: http://bit.ly/marshydro-sp3000 Tent: http://bit.ly/marshydro-120x60tent

A few tops have reached the grow light again. - [21:10]: Pinched and super-cropped the taller tops. --- Mainly tried to even out the canopy. - [21:15]: Took the weekly general PPFD readings. ------ Both phenos were around 743 μmol/m²/s which gives a DLI of 32.10 mol/m²/d under an 12/12 light cycle (at ~326.5W). - [21:17]: Took the weekly height and light distance measurements. ------ Both phenos were about 47" tall. ------ Both Heady OG (BX1 #1) and TKO were about 7" away from the grow light. - [21:21]: Checked the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: ------------------ [ 4x4 MAIN TENT ] --------------- ------ 45% - [CH01 FT » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 43% - [CH02 FB » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 28% - [CH03 BT » G20 - TKO] ------ 52% - [CH04 BB » G20 - TKO] ------------------ [ 3x3 VEG TENT ] ---------------- ------ 44% - [CH05 BL » GR7 - TKO] ------ 40% - [CH06 BR » GR7 - Pheno #2] ------ 42% - [CH07 FL » GR7 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 46% - [CH08 FR » GR7 - Pheno #4] --------- Veg: 38% - 45% | Flower: 45% - 55% --------- General: 30% [Dry] «| 45 - 60% [Moist] |» 70% [Wet] - [21:23]: Checked the 3x3 veg tent. --- The veg garden is looking healthy! --- Both mothers seem to be unaffected by the topping and all growth looks perky and green! --- The spare Heady OG clones look great too! --- Even the original mother clones are looking healthy and green. - [21:37]: Checked the humidifiers. --- Tanks are still full and no leaks found. Day 06 - Saturday - 08/30/25 - Total Days: 139 ----------------------------------- Daily Averages ~[+01:00] - Temps: 83.7°F [28.7°C] - Humidity: 84.5% - VPD: 0.61 kPa - Soil %: [49, 43, 30, 52, 42, 41, 43, 46] ----------------------------------- - [20:05]: Quickly checked on the 3x3 veg tent. --- Looking great! --- Growth looks healthy and no flooding! --- May need to water the spare Heady OG clones soon, but growth is looking perky and green! --- Mother clones in the propagation tray also look healthy! - [20:33]: Night check on the 4x4 tent. --- Ca-Caw!! Wow the garden looks incredible! --- Both Heady OG and TKO are swelling up with bud growth! --- The canopy looks pretty even and stoked for this harvest! Also a bit concerned about trimming. But more stoked! - [20:39]: Checked the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: ------------------ [ 4x4 MAIN TENT ] --------------- ------ 51% - [CH01 FT » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 43% - [CH02 FB » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 29% - [CH03 BT » G20 - TKO] ------ 52% - [CH04 BB » G20 - TKO] ------------------ [ 3x3 VEG TENT ] ---------------- ------ 42% - [CH05 BL » GR7 - TKO] ------ 41% - [CH06 BR » GR7 - Pheno #2] ------ 45% - [CH07 FL » GR7 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 46% - [CH08 FR » GR7 - Pheno #4] --------- Veg: 38% - 45% | Flower: 45% - 55% --------- General: 30% [Dry] «| 45 - 60% [Moist] |» 70% [Wet] - [20:45]: Checked the 3x3 veg tent. --- Veg garden is healthy and wow growth is raging! --- Heady OG and TKO mothers both look beautiful and haven’t slowed down since the topping. Both are bushing out quite nicely! --- Both of the spare Heady OG clones need another watering! - [20:47]: Here are the starting initial watering ranges: ------ Heady OG BX1 #1A » 237.7g → 300.3g ------ Heady OG BX1 #1B » 244.4g → 305.6g --------- General Solo Range: [Dry] «| [Initial Cup Weight] + ~55-100g |» [Wet] --- Both cups were last watered [2] days ago. --- Took the starting weight of both clones before watering, ------ Heady OG BX1 #1A » 231.6g ------ Heady OG BX1 #1B » 241.0g --- While on a scale, --- Gently misted the straw mulch of both cups with RO water. --- Focused on the straw and sprayed as evenly as possible. --- Misted 10-20 sprays. Waited a moment, then misted again. --- Made sure to reference the watering weights. --- Repeated this process until both cups weighted at least 300g. --- There was no runoff. - [21:08]: Took the saturated weight of both clones after watering, ------ Heady OG BX1 #1A » 335.2g ------ Heady OG BX1 #1B » 335.4g --- Marked the final wet weight on the back of each cup. Also marked the watering date on the front. --- Placed both phenos back into the tent and back on top of the veg pots. - [21:35]: Time for another grow board wipe! --- Looking back at the last 5 weeks in the garden and am quite impressed with the amount of growth! --- Started the 12/12 flip and now these ladies have easily doubled in size! Heady OG probably could have tripled in size but trained her several times to keep growth from getting too tall. In contrast, TKO has been staying pretty squat, which is great because I currently can’t reach the back of the canopy. --- Oops. Forgot about the lacto-serum. Going to need to start a new batch soon. --- Anyways, both the Heady OG and TKO were transplanted into solo cups. At the time, Heady OG was looking stressed so took extra cuttings. Glad that she recovered! --- Upgraded the scrog frame by adding a second layer of netting 14 inches above the first one. Was quite surprised that both Heady OG and TKO managed to fill in the entire space. Heady actually reached the grow light twice and had to be super-cropped. --- The rest of the garden work has been in the veg tent. --- Reset the veg tent and took mother clone cuttings. --- Transplanted both Heady OG and TKO into the veg pots. Growth has been raging and have already topped both girls once. --- As for the near future, --- Continuing to pheno hunt for keeper phenos for the mother tent and for my first breeding project. --- Also been researching about tissue culture and think I’m almost ready to give it a try! If successful, I should be able to maintain the genetics of all future keeper phenos. --- For breeding, TC will be essential to preserve each filial generation after each cross (F1, F2, F3, and so on). --- What can possibly go wrong right!? --- Anyways! --- Both Heady OG and TKO are looking great and have completely filled the tent! By far the largest canopy I’ve grown so far. Bud growth has already started to swell up and these ladies are ready for the next 6-7 weeks of flower! Ca-Caw! Let’s go my girls! - [21:39]: Checked the humidifiers. --- Tanks are still full and no leaks found.
