420Fastbuds StrawberryGorillaAuto Week 3 What up grow fam. Weekly update for these three beautiful girls. All are growing absolutely amazing. Showing no signs of any issues at all. I'll introduce nutes this week using General Hydroponics Flora 3 part flora series. Will continue the same routine as they seem to be responding great. All in all Happy Growing

Welcome to week six! 🌱 Week five was a complete success – all parameters are perfectly aligned. I’ve increased the water conductivity to a solid 3000 and bumped the CO2 level up to 1200 🌿. Light intensity is now set at 1400 µmol in the center and 1000 at the edges, which will keep the plants strong in their generative state 🌞. I’ll maintain these levels until the end of the third week and then start slowly removing the large fan leaves to ensure the buds get plenty of light 💡✨. I’m also trying something new to activate the “Emerson effect” 🌄: I’m running the deep red lights for 5 minutes before sunset and for another 5 minutes after the day ends. This should give the plants a final boost in photosynthesis, helping to maximize their growth potential! Everything’s looking fantastic so far! The Black Cherry has rooted well across different experimental setups, and at the end of the grow, I’ll provide a full report on the best care techniques for both strains 🌺👌. Willkommen in Woche sechs! 🌱 Die fünfte Woche lief perfekt – alle Parameter stimmen. Ich habe die Leitfähigkeit des Wassers auf satte 3000 erhöht und den CO2-Gehalt auf 1200 angehoben 🌿. Die Lichtstärke beträgt jetzt 1400 µmol in der Mitte und 1000 am Rand, was dafür sorgen wird, dass die Pflanzen stark im generativen Zustand bleiben 🌞. Ich werde diese Werte bis Ende der dritten Woche beibehalten und dann langsam damit beginnen, die großen Sonnensegel zu entfernen, damit die Blüten ordentlich Licht abkriegen 💡✨. Zusätzlich probiere ich etwas Neues aus, um den „Emerson-Effekt“ zu aktivieren 🌄: Ich lasse das tiefrote Licht 5 Minuten vor Sonnenuntergang und 5 Minuten nach dem Ende des Tages weiterlaufen. Das sollte der Photosynthese einen letzten Schub geben und das Wachstum der Pflanzen maximal fördern! Bis jetzt sieht alles fantastisch aus! Die Black Cherry ist in verschiedenen Versuchsreihen gut angewachsen, und am Ende des Grows werde ich einen ausführlichen Bericht darüber abgeben, wie sich die beiden Sorten am besten pflegen lassen 🌺👌.

4/22/2024 Day 29 showing plenty pistils, still in the transition to flower stage. Training may help the plant grow bigger/ longer stems. They can be semi bushy when spread out. Switched nutes to flower bloom from Gaia green 4/26 day 33? Last half of week 5 there has been more of a stretch than there was previous to this. These plants have been mad with a bit of over water and chlorine issues and maybe cal mag 4/27 day 34 end of week 5 The plants both stretched. The one I didn’t train,I can see a visible growth of about double the height, just over this last week. For it being just a pre flower stretch/transition phase for the auto flowers, I am surprised at how many pistils are on the flower sights. The end of last week, I didn’t feel like there were enough pistils to consider it the beginning of flower, and now at the end of this week, it looks like this should be the end of week 1 flower, but they were still stretching.

Once again, this week starts where the former one ended. With the exception of all the cables you can see in the first picture. I dared to install a minimalized version of the Raspi control only controlling the self-built humidifier and one blower/fan combination. I was very pleased to see how easily the simple diffusor can hold optimum VPD as long as temperatures are high and humidity tends to fall below optimum VPD. A single 10 seconds evaporation can hold the level for about 2–3 minutes. I am not pleased to see the Monsanto blowers rather underperform. It’s impossible to reduce humidity or temperature with both running on full speed, while a lifting of the tent door will bring immediate changes. With the Raspi/Arduino success so far*, I am thinking about using old Power Mac fans which are WCM controllable and use 12 V. At least one to increase air intake, and maybe even the blowers. * It wasn’t any problem at all to have the Arduino collect CO2 and soil moisture data, so after some more cable manufacturing (aka helpless soldering), I could extend the Raspi control. I’m still uncertain about the camera module (@trelorny impressed me with his time lapse videos). I don’t want to put the hardware into the tent with its not so electronics friendly climate, already risking some rare outages of the temp/hum sensor. But the camera module cannot be placed far away. So maybe I’ll use the 3A model I own as a spare part as a camera driver. Any maybe, if it works, invest in a better camera module. Mine is generation 1. Oh, and the ladies! Gave them slightly fertilised water yesterday, and even it or the better VPD yesterday or a combination of both make me believe bud growth is a bit more visible today. The smell in the morning when I open the tent to release accumulated humidity is outstanding. They were already thirsty on day 57 again, so pure RO + a bit of tap water until it spilled out of their pot’s bottoms. Many fan leaves turning autumnally now, and the smallest Sherbet suffered a bit from over-fertilisation as I wrote. But it this stage I don’t go for leaf beauty anymore. Just another learning: Don’t use differently sized pots anymore. Hard to feed them individually this way. VPD was mostly in best range yesterday, and I have the feeling it really supports their bud growth. I added an "Evening time" option to my Raspi control that allows the humidity to sink a selected time before lights shut down. That made it possible to have humidity in best range for most of the night time too. They were even dry again on day 58 morning. Another time just water. The blowers cannot cope with the flowers’ smell anymore, and so sometimes my flat cannot hide who shares it with me. Day 60 presents me with a problem: I’ll leave on Friday for a few days. Considering the microscope pictures are not from the tops buds: Would you say it’s safe to give them another week? Problem solved on day 61. Only clean water from now on, and next week will be their last. You won’t see any new pictures for some days now. Me too … Something I wanted to share with you before I leave: I just finished to update my grow box control with a new PWM fan hat that keeps the Raspi cool, while at the same an infrared sensor can now measure real leaf and additional ambient temperature. Setup is much cleaner and more robust now, but I wish my flux would not make the solder stick to the tip of the machine instead of making it flow and stick at the tiny tiny spots I have to hit …

Starting to focus on growing buds now, looking so good starting to smell strong too, few more weeks left to make these buds as fat as possible, how good does it look in the video 🤤🤤🤤🤤

This will be the ladies last week of Veg, they will be flipped to flower at the end of the week. I have been increasing the nutrients steadily, and rotating between heavy, light and low nutrient mixes. They have been steadily getting taller and bushier. Temps have remained steady in the high 70’s and low 80’s while RH has come down a bit to between 55 and 60%. I won’t be doing much training for these girls, and I won’t be running a SCROG this time around. I’ll need to make another custome size for my tent now that I have a much larger setup. Happy Gardening 😊👊❤️

Topped the plant on Sunday and she is doing awesome by Wednesday. Let me know what you think about the video! I may do more once I’m feeling better and have this go pro a little more figured out. Maybe some timelapse. And excuse the voice in the video, I’m currently sick.

She has grown 20cm during this week, fairly confident I have a good grip on this one and I'll be able to keep her from getting to big. I have seen how this strain can produce massive plants. Back soon. Take it easy.

Girls are looking beautiful. had a couple dots of PM show up again. I created a foliar spray using Garlic. I crushed fresh garlic into 4 cups of water and let sit for 12 hours. I strained that mixture and added in 12 cups of water making a gallon of solution. The science behind this is that Sulphur gets extracted from the Garlic and when applied in mist to the leaves it reduces leaf surface PH therefore eliminating the spread of PM. I also increased the soil PH slightly to hopefully inhibit more nutrient uptake and remain strong ! I dont ever want to use any whack chemicals, milk, peroxide... all that seems like you may aswell throw the plant out. We are doing our best to keep up quality of bud as this is my medicine. Her pistils are beautiful white and leaves look healthy. trichome production is wild. Buds are starting to swell ! another 2-3 weeks and ill be cutting bottled nutes and stickin to dry amendments to finish them. Its a 7-9 week Flowering strain according to my source of clones. Northern Lights x Hash Passion. Ill have to keep an eye with my trichome scope and go from there i am currently Following Indo nutrients recommended doses and giving phosphorus + Calcium boost couple days after adding microbes and carbs to soil, i added 4 tbsp of Goguano Bloom and a couple handfulls of Black earth at the end of last week as top bedding. Second scrog arrives today :D very happy to get em spread further and have the comfort of fat buds suspended in the air by second scrog with even coverage 8)

🍀🍀❤️

Light is at max. Need to top dress sometime this week and add some flower nutes let them start flowering soon, can’t afford to much more hight if they are gonna double. Things are as they should be! Happy growing!

So I finally have time to finish this review. The buds cured now for over a month and I consumed them a lot because I simply don't want to smoke something else. The details are in the strain review but to make it short: 10/10 high, 9/10 taste, 0/10 grow (she hermed).

She's taking off!!

Start April 4th. Day 1 vega. Hey! Four seeds have hatched. One is smaller than the others. I planted the seeds in GroBag spilled with clean water ph 6. I'll be back with more information Day 2 I made a video, it shows that the seeds have taken root well. Leave your comments. I'll be glad to chat.

Ich habe an der Pflanze Low Stress Training und getoppt, damit ich maximal Ertrag erreichen kann und wie bisher immer keine Probleme

Top dressed with some more soil. The top was looking depleted and just want to keep it from completely taking all the nutrients from the soil. Added a mix of power bloom with azomite and glacial rock dust. I watered in with some pure protein dissolved into hot water then added to the water I was using at diluted levels. The second watering they got this week was with molasses. which also does a good job of dropping the ph of my water to the perfect level and a little bit of Epsom salt because I ran out of my cal mag and also want the plant to have plenty of sulfur. Buds are looking cool and remind me of little pine trees. At first glance it seems like they are starting to foxtail but the buds are fattening once the new growth on top starts to expand more. the main colas are almost a foot long each, but hard to tell because the planetary buds around the main colas are blocking them from getting a good picture. Amazed by how frosty the sugar leaves and even some of the older fan leaves are. Her smells are mostly sweet and candy-like. got a little sneek peak of what her fade should look like from one of the leaves being severed partially with a nice yellow and purple. She put on a decent amount of weight this week but towards the end,I can tell she's starting to slow down. Looks like it will still bulk a little more but noticing fewer white and more orange hairs. hoping all my plants finish around 8-9 weeks. i want to try to harvest them all at the same time if i can.

Week 10 Week 3 of Flower Well … bud sites are on the scene. I love the nice open structure of this plant. The stretch has been pretty wild! She is being a bit crowded to the back of the tent now because of the explosive growth of her tent mate (Mimosa EVO). I can’t wait to see this lady stack on bud now. 😎🔥 Cooler internals: 600 ppm 1.2EC 5.9pH-6.1 (it swings a bit over 3 days) 65 F Solution Temp. Onward 😎🍻

One of my plant I decided to grow out door I decided to transplant in to bigger pot. Yes I know I need to put more soil in it
