Might have some hermies, I plucked anything that might have looked like a sack forming haven't seen anymore show up. One of the Skunk #1s is 35 inches the other hasn't done as well and is very stumpy. A. Lemon is a happy camper, 35 inches, but is the one showing hermie. Zkittlez is a good size. Got a new tent for Christmas 48x24x84 so I have sufficient height going forward.

Aug 16: Lemon Cream Kush has stretched a bit and the buds are starting to fill in. Should be a decent yield and I’m looking forward to the tast of this one. Aug 18: video shows use of 730 nm far red light at dusk. Just a few seconds at the light time of day, everyday, during bloom, is all it takes. To keep to a natural schedule, I use Civil Twilight as listed on timeanddate.com for my location. Currently getting 2-3 minutes earlier each night.

Really starting to fill out now. By the end of the week should be quite fat. leaves are kind of yellow, assume they are sucking the nutrients into the bud. A little as it's cold here and the room the tent is in gets down to 15-16c at night. The air is also dry af This is great, cannabis loves lower humidity and a good 10 degree difference in day/night temps in flowering.

Going great. Smell has become an issue this week with all the rain storms were receiving. The high humidity has my carbon filter pretty much useless. I’m in California so I’m not worried about legality. That said I live in a townhome so I’m not exactly trying to upset or advertise to my neighbors. Not too much I can do though. Getting excited and also not looking forward to trim. Looks to be about 2-3 weeks out...maybe 4-5 on the Sativa plant...or more.

Hi dear smokers and growers!! 😎 Chilling Racoons here 😏 We will show you one of the new genetics of Royal Queen Seeds, the Milky Way F1 Automatic! 🤩 F1 seeds have unparalleled uniformity, impressive resistance to disease, great productivity and flavours and effects that will inspire you to grow these seeds again and again. So we are sure to grow big and stable plants, we have only to cure them well!! We are excited to try the Royal Queen Fertilizers like the tablets and the easy boost! They will give a big kick to our plants 🤩 🤩 🤩 We posted some of the RQS Ferts and Merchandising, look at the stuff, I am happy like a child 🤤 Royal Queen Seeds is one of the biggest seed bank in the world, in addition to a wide variety of high quality seeds, on their site you will find many accessories for growers and smokers. Take a look to our friends! https://www.royalqueenseeds.com ✅ 🌱#1 WEEK VEGETATIVE🌱 💉🔍Fertilization schedule:🔍💉 📅 EASY BOOST MIXED TO THE SOIL 50g/pot Both seeds germinated in 48H, after the root came out, we immediately planted the seed in the soil. We are growing MILKY WAY AUTO #1 in a 11L Plastic Pot and the MILKY WAY AUTO #2 in 15L Smart Pot. Seeds are directly planted in the final pot to avoid transplant stress. We planted these seeds in different pots to see if there are difference in growing and yield. Germination rate: 100%, Royal Queen, what a pleasure to grow their seeds. 🧐 🤓 Milky Way F1 data sheet 🧐 🤓 Variety: F1 Hybrid auto Genetic Background: Blue Mammoth x Blue Dream x Sin Tra Bajo Auto THC: Very high Yield: XXL Height: 55 - 75 cm Flowering time: 42 - 45 days Harvest: 70 - 75 days after germination Major terpenes: Farnesene, Myrcene, Pinene Effect: Creative, Euphoric, Physically Relaxing Flavor: Chocolate, Citrus, Pungent, Skunk Climate: Short Summers 💸💸💸💸💸 Buy Milky Way F1: https://www.royalqueenseeds.com/uk/f1-hybrid-cannabis-seeds/617-milky-way-f1.html _____________________________________________________________________ OUR GERMINATION METHOD STEP BY STEP We germinate all seeds in cotton pads because in my opinion is the best way, I'll tell you why. You should use cotton pads because it is one of the fastest way to germinate seeds, it is also one of the more reliable way because with these few steps, you could have a 99% of success if seeds are fresh (we store our seeds in a dark and sealed container in the fridge and they last years!). This is a NOOB-FRIENDLY technique BUT you have to respect some little and easy steps: 1️⃣take one cotton pad, spray it 5 times with water; 2️⃣dispose seeds in the sprayed cotton pad, remember to leave minimum 1cm of space between seeds, 3️⃣take a new cotton pad, spray it 3 times with water, face the wet side down and put it on the seeds of the first cotton pad; 4️⃣spray the dry side 3 times. 5️⃣put your "sandwich/es" in a sealed dark container of a sufficient size to store them, I use a plastic container (glass or plastic are equal) with about this size: 15x30cm .It contains about 8 "sandwitches". 6️⃣store the container in a dark place with a temperature from 17°C (23/24 °C are optimal)and more. REMEMBER: More light they see and colder is the place,slower will be the germination and lower will be the germination ratio. *(If your seeds are old, not good stored and with a low germination ratio, I suggest you to use Seed Booster. Old seeds and maybe stored in a very hot place for a long time may will be death and may will not never germinate). Generally a normal cotton pad is good for 3 seeds. If you follow these steps, you will hardly have problem of non-germinating seeds. I tried all methods (except rockwool cube) and in the last two years (and I germinated a lot of seeds) I can tell this is the fastest and reliable way. I loved to use paper towel but with this method is very easy to put too much water... I really hope that this "rule" will help all growers to improve their skills.

On wednesday 21/07 the deficiency got pretty bad and did a quick water change. In the timelapse it’s very visible that the plant collapsed. The plant is now recovering but will be fine evantually. I’ll let it grow for this week and then do another round of Topping

Hello. This is the end of the veg cycle and the first week in flowering. It's May 30/2023. The Breeders Description said 8 to 9 weeks of flowering. That should take us to August 1st. That would be the start of week 9 and Aug. 8th would be the end of week 9, so I plan to harvest around then. The greenhouse looks a little different than last time. My buddy Jerry brought me some bamboo (he went out of his way on his birthday to do that for me) What A nice guy he is. I used 18 of the longest pieces to make a Scrog type of net to hold up the big buds I hope to get. First year to try this bamboo thing. Hope it goes good. I might have to tie it up tighter. I did a good trim/prune, under the table mostly, but did remove some big fanleaves up top that blocked the lower branch ends/tips from seeing good light. I think it's also good to remove the big fanleaves that don't get much light any more. It promotes more growth up top. While trimming I left the branches that were growing straight down. I'll trim them off today for cuttings, for clones I'll make later. I mix 10ml of liquid seaweed with 1 gallon of water to put the cuttings in. I'll make 6 cups for 6 different plants numbered 1 to 6 so I don't mix them up. 😁 I'll pack up the lights later. I'll mix some transition to flowering, nutrient solution tomorrow. That means a little less N and a little more P and K. Thanks for looking in. Chuck.

Welcome back to another week, finally decided to flip to flower as these girls do grow pretty quickly in DWC. Aiming for some nice quality buds bit also a decent yield of at least 1 gram per watt of light. Nutrient solution has not been changing to complete flower schedule yet but I will be sure to switch it over in a few days. The crucial part now is keeping the EC and pH in a good range to avoid any deficiencies or Nutrient lock out. Let's see what the stretch brings the first few weeks. Stay tuned, and I'll be back for the by the end of the week to report some video feedback. End of the week has ending with a heavy defoliation session. Plants were getting bushy and covering potential tops so that needed to be addressed. For now, it will be selective defoliation once they have recovered, which should be in 2/3 days. Let's watch them bounce back. Stay tuned for week 2. Check out my YouTube and Instagram channel for a closer look. (Link on profile)

Week 6 of flower I think we have an issue. Haven’t noticed any bulking in the flowers in the last two weeks. The gcc has slightly but the Saturn hasn’t at all. The Saturn is staring to fade into a light green yellow witch is normal. Also they are not drinking as much water as they usually do where last time I ran them that did t start till week 8.all they got this week was recharge one day and silica on the other.But we will see I have about 3 more week I think. Probably give them one last terp tea bloom tea

Hi all. A good week of growth for the Amnesia haze lady despite the crazy temps in the UK the past few weeks. 31°c heatwaves daily have had some negatives on the recovering 2 girls . The amnesia is a huge plant now for my room dimensions and I would love to see the results from an outside grow of this amazing strain. I took a lot of lower growth tips out and wish i could have took clones as they were such good strong examples of her. I cannot sing her praises enough at this point and she jas took to her training with no issues at all. I am hoping to give them another 2 weeks max which will give the other plants time to recover and get some size back on. The Red hot cookies has remained yellow except a few lower growth points , she had some very damaged roots from the root rot and temps but still managed to add some height and side growth. The tank changes and new res mix should hopefully support her to keep the new roots healthy and growing. The Sweet Afghani Delicious has been trying really well to keep herself growing too. Her ability to overcome such a hit with root rot and keep going gives me a positive note on this strain. Her recovery is expected soon now so should give her a good chance to harvest well. Overall I am happy with what is here following such a difficult attack by heat and pathogens. Watch those res tanks in the heat above 21°c guys , pathogens thrive at this temp !.

I Should have been chopped down 5 plants instead of just one however I lost her 4 sisters because of fungal infection due to a high humidity and and a very hot day. Wish I could have been able to get a lot of jars full of this wonderful and magical organics nugs.
