4/15/25 Things are progressing nicely. Some plants dont seem to be doing too much but 3 of them or so that are really standing out. Im curious if some of these are going to be longer flowering time than anticipated with the very obvious sativa dominant plants.

First week of flushing.Here is my schedule for flushing with flawless finish. First flushing is with just a LOT lot water. Second flush:watering normal with flawless finish and flush after 20/24 Hours,let it sit overnight but be careful because trichomes will go crazy,if you don’t have enough milky trichomes this method will increase the trichome production immediately the next day. Repeat this method until you are satisfied with the results but don’t go more than 12/15 days,im using flawless finish 3 times in total so use it at least twice. 24 hours flawless finish isn’t doing any damage extra than the 8 hour schedule that advanced Nutrients prefer,but after 24 hours will start to damage the plant so you need to give a good flush after using it IM USING 1.5L WATER SO 2/2.5ml flawless finish

Greetings, fellow cultivators! It's time for the Week 6 from Seed and Week 2 Flower Report on our illustrious Epsilon F1, and the journey of green excellence continues to unfold. Our botanical champion is now fully immersed in the flowering phase, and let me tell you, the spectacle is nothing short of breathtaking. In this pivotal week, our Epsilon F1 has truly come into her own, showcasing the beauty and resilience that only a seasoned grower can appreciate. The transition from veg to flower has been seamless, a testament to the meticulous care and attention lavished upon her. As we delve deeper into the flowering phase, our guiding hand remains steady, ensuring our green queen stays low and wide, maximizing light penetration and promoting an even canopy. It's a delicate dance of cultivation, a choreography that promises a bountiful harvest of botanical splendor. The environment continues to be a haven of stability, with room temperatures and humidity maintained at optimal levels. Consistency is key, providing our Epsilon F1 with the perfect conditions to thrive and flourish. Now, let's talk nutrients! The Aptus Holland super soil mix continues to be the cornerstone of our feeding regimen, providing a symphony of nutrients that nourish our plant from root to tip. Micromix Soil, Substrate Buffer Powder, All-in-One Pellet – it's the nutritional trifecta that ensures our Epsilon F1 remains healthy and vibrant. But that's not all! Our foliar friend, NutriSpray, makes a triumphant return, showering our green goddess with a gentle rain of nutrients. This foliar feast not only provides essential microelements but also leaves a protective coating on the leaves, safeguarding against environmental stressors and promoting overall plant health.

D71 - SEP 22: Looking and smelling great. Haven´t seen much growth since the last 5 days or so, but it fattend up really well and it´s really dense, insanely dense. Thricomes developing, soon to be harvested :) D72: Now it´s time to mature, I don´t see any significant growth, only thricomes developing. No watering, it still has a lot. Humidity is really high these last 2 days, being around 50 - 70% rH. D73: No watering yet. No signs of any more thrips, thankfully. Seems to have fattened a little. D74: Maturing well, thricomes getting mostly cloudy and amber. No watering, tomorrow probably. D75-D77: Been a little off of GD for these past days. The tent is looking good in general, no thrips anymore, temps and rH are good. Watered with nutrients on day 76. Thricomes are really close to harvest and I´m really impacient but I´m trying to wait for it to get more amber 😄

Bit more eventful of a week this one. Just going about my normal business when I was checking them over making sure all sex organs were female. Noticed that something seemed amiss. I took me a bit to figure out why one of my girls hermie’d, but a bit of thinking back brought something to the forefront. I had not had the 3rd and 4th pieces of shelving, and since I had the shelving upside down, I had to balance them on the edge with a piece of wood. I had rearranged my plants after watering, and did not make sure each one was steady, when I went to open my tent on probably day 27 or 28, i saw one of my babies had fallen off the shelf and was crushed up against the wall of the tent at a 45 degree angle! I was like NOOOO sunflower not you!!! So at least I know why the darn thing did what it did. I removed it from the others as soon as I noticed. Wanting to see the root structure I chopped it at the base of its stalk. The whole pot had very healthy roots so that was good to see. Was still having trouble with the plants seeming to reject the cal-mag and other nutes I was giving it. Only had pool ph strips. Yakno, the ones that only have a range down to 6.2….. More on that next week.

Week 1 of veg. In the books and we have a stable of very healthy and incredibly vigorous plants on the grow here. Even the runty one (there’s always one) has shown some signs of strong growth and we may not end up culling her from the mix at all. Over the last couple days, growth has exploded with no signs of slowing down - even after their transplant to the bigger pots👍. They’re doing everything they’re supposed to and showing that F1 vigour at every step. So far, so good and we really couldn’t ask for a better start to this run. We incorporated a very mild solution of our primary nute this week - Druid Berkana. This stuff is a one part system designed for the whole cycle and its proven to be one of the best all-around nute brands we’ve tried to date. Some light foliar spraying with liquid karma continues to mid week and then they’re all on their own👌. Expecting big things from this run and if we get lucky with continued robust growth - might be able to take clones after the third week of veg and flip🤞🤞🤞. Til next week - keep it green and keep it growing👍👊. Background This project has been a year in strain selection (and another year in the actual making) to get to this point with a viable potential cross. It’ll be a true polyhybrid with a mix of sativa and indica leaning properties for each. We’ve combined an especially powerful hybrid sativa strain of Strawberry with an equally manageable and hard hitting strain of indica dominant Skywalker OG. The hope has always been to combine them and boil out the best characteristics of each. The strawberry is phenomenal in terms of terp profile and a mix of strong head and body effects while the Skywalker is a mind bending, body butter kind of indica with that earthy Kush profile and flowery undertones. The strawberry is prone to botrytis and fasciation but features excellent terps and yields if grown correctly. She’s Also stretchy and somewhat unruly when she gets going. The Skywalker is a contrast in growth characteristics with a squat structure, medium sized buds and excellent resilience and resistance. The plan is to seed out the available females and take cuts of what we can post-stretch to get a closer look at any differing phenos. Still very much early stages for a stabilized new strain but we’ve got the right foundation of solid genetics. Now we just gotta get it off the ground to the next generation👍. We’re predominantly focused on the plants that demonstrate that hybrid vigour and wasting no time with any problem plants or runts. Stay tuned - with a little luck, this cross is gonna be straight 🔥😎👌.

Una semana en la que las plantas dejaron de crecer como lo vinieron haciendo y emplean todo ese esfuerzo o energía en mejorar la formación de los cogollos. A week in which the plants stopped growing as they had been doing and used all that effort or energy to improve the formation of the buds.

Following RQS auto guide : https://www.royalqueenseeds.com/blog-how-to-grow-autoflowering-cannabis-n83 WEEK 5: FLOWERING BEGINS#29 12.4. - #35 18.4. #29 12.4. -Opened new week with new pics and basic diary structure -Noticed the temps have gone up to 29'c , raised lamps, will see if i can make the tent cooler by removing some instulations during this week, it should not go to subzero degrees outside anymore. -Opened the side air intake hatch a bit to give more outside air directly in to tent, also took out the ventilation pipe so that the incoming air now comes in at plant height (not freezing temps anymore) -Took out few fanleaves again -Moved temp meter from soil level to middle of the pots -Topped(or fimmed) the purplematic #2 which is non-LST, unlike the non-topped/fimmed purplematic #1 which is LSTd -Should water now daily about liter / plant / 24h (with nutes) : Watered 2x 1,75liters with stated nutes Mostly following https://www.royalqueenseeds.com/blog-how-to-grow-autoflowering-cannabis-n83 on waterings (1ltr/24h, so would mean 4-5liters in my tent) #30 13.4. -Opened 'side hatch' fully -Didnt water, soil was moist -Hopefully got the in-tent temp now lowered to steady 25'c, outdoors about 0-12'c daily for this week #31 14.4. -Once again removed all LST, the form of the plant still stays, might start ScrOG:n next week, possibly -Added 1½liters Coke bottles to each pot, will see how much the water drains in a 24h, if it really doesn't, ill just lift the bottles tomorrow and let it run. #32 15.4. -Nothing here #33 16.4. -Removed bottles, added 1,5liters overall to pots and what was left of in each bottle to each pot -Temps are keeping steady now, also Hum is what it says at the RQS's AF guide -So far this week about 0,55liters/24h/plant, dunno if i should nor can increase the watering from current rhytm, will see if i can draw a water line closer to tent so wont have to carry so much water, or get a 20liters containers or something #34 17.4. -Nothing here #35 18.4. -Water 1,5liter / plant (6liters in total) with normal nutes -Nice grow after removing LST this week, will start ScrOGin next week -Also have to defoliate next week way more as the plants are getting a bit too bushy

Day 1 - LST train both plants... Mostly SB1 to have a wider canopy let the smaller nodes catch up. SB2.. Nice structure, really upset to break 1/2 of it... But loads of energy and recovered /train well. Nodes larger than SB1, but SB1 has mode nodes

This was their last week! Harvested on Day 60. Smells are incredible, tricomes are carpeted and have a good mix of amber and cloudy. Love the wireless microscope I got of Amazon ❤️ i gave the girls their last watering on day 55 , and I watered till I had about 15% runoff. I like to whole plant hang dry my plants in my tent, hopefully, aiming for about 60 degrees and 60% humidity for about 10-14 days. Typically the more there is, the longer it takes. i cant wait! 🤤

The colas keep filling out and getting longer and smell amazing. It's been warmer and more humid outside so RH in the tent has gone up. I added a mini air purifier I wasn't using (no ozone) as an extra precaution against mildew. I woke up in the middle of the night on Monday and realized that the air purifier has a light on it so I got up and turned it off. I was worried that I'd messed with the dark cycle so I left them in darkness for an extra 2.5 hours. My cool tube fan fell off the next day, onto my plants. They look undamaged. I taped it up again and set up a safety wire like the filter and fan have. I need a better solution for next cycle. The buds are beautiful and having an even canopy is great. It's hard not thinking about the end result. The buds still look small compared to the big colas of a traditional grow shape but there's still a couple weeks left. There is some bud formation under the canopy but it's a little light. The tops of the colas are fat but short on the 7 gallon plants and taller and thinner on the 5 gallon plants. I did leave a couple offshoots on that developed in late veg/early flower. By the time I caught them, I felt they were too mature to chop and I thought they helped fill out certain areas. But those ones have fewer bud sites and tend to be just a cola on a branch that shoots straight up which is still good. I do wonder if less crowding would have given me bigger buds, but I think it has more to do with pot size. This is week 7 of flower. I switched to half strength nutes and started adding fancy molasses (18ml/gallon). I broke my pH tester and didn't replace my SCROG net until after I finally watered the next day so the canopy changed a bit. I took the opportunity to rearrange the plants a bit. Crystal formation increased a crazy amount the day after I started adding molasses. I think I'll keep adding molasses even during flush. The CBD Blue Shark has this really beautiful white glow. The pistils are very strong and white and the trichromes reflect back this silver light. The leaves are a nice semi-glossy dark green which gives great contrast. It's just a beautiful plant. The Wedding Cake has a lot more colour with lots of red hairs and some yellow tones in the pistils. The fan leaves are more prone to yellowing and death than the leaves on the CBD BS. The buds seem more structurally dense and are really working on these pyramid shapes that look like delicious orange and green snacks. The buds on the CBD Blue Shark are more symmetrical and kind of otherworldly like some kind of sea creature.

Transplanted the ladies this week! Moved them into a 4 gallon pot, I plan on letting them get settled and flipping to flower soon. Temps were good this week, RH was steady at about 60%. No big surprises with the transplant, however it did take them a day or two longer than my typical recovery time.

missed a whole week in this I deliberately didnt post or take any pics in week 7 because I burned my baby( used my cucumber feeding water which is stronger) so bad I was ashamed to show her to the world I did a flush but the damage done to her beautiful leaves is permanent but she still coming buds coming in nice small from the shock of the burn but still healthy plant .

Week 2 for the solo Afghani went smooth. Looked a little slow to develop her first proper set of leaves, but the root development should help speed up her progression. Still feeding off the slow release 444 and is now regularly drinking about 2oz of water every other day. I also spritz the bottom of the outer cup to keep moisture levels high for stretching roots. She's about 36" from the light. Hoping to get a little stretch to make training easier. Added a couple new pics to get the week caught up. Stay tuned, week 3 starts training.
