Hey everyone! ๐Ÿ‘‹ Another week and another update, and in this week I finally flipped my babies! (and it wasn't a failed attempt) ๐Ÿ˜ They are now in the 12/12 cycle and I must say last week's recovery was crucial to finally do it! Besides of all that this week was quite uneventful compared to the other ones (which I suppose is a good thing! ๐Ÿ˜) The only things worth mentioning besides what I already wrote is that I overfed my babies (double dosage) but it seems they took them well and that Boomer and her sisters (specially Boomer) get thirsty really fast compared to before... which means I need to water them more frequently which isn't terrible. I also finally have some new time lapses ๐Ÿ˜Š I hope you all enjoy them! Thanks for reading! ๐Ÿ™Œ

Constantly taking leaves off all these girls. Trying to make space for those buds! These are some leafy genetics overall but some are starting to change color nicely for week six of flower! I checked some of the trichomes but they aren't close to ready so I didn't snap any pictures of those. But some good trichomes production from them. Got the UVB 310 in full effect right now at 4 hours. Will be boosting up to six tomorrow and continue to push for the next two weeks.

I still have to go thru all the photos but wanted to get the video up for all of them first. If your interested in the pics come back at the end of today and they will be up it just takes a while. Noticing more seeds poppin thru, I hope it's from the moonshine cookies pollen cuz the female turned out bomb and the male wasnt too bad either so they might be decent seeds. Started the flush on the citradellic and the other ones might have got their last feed yesterday. Should be finishing up next week and the week after.

Well these beauties are stood at a whopping 42" and are now working on their flowers in full effect! I'm quite sure at this point all these clones are the same strain of sugar bomb punch ๐Ÿ˜ so ending up with the favourite in their! She reminds me of runtz muffin because of the orange punch in her genetics!

Planted into final 15 ltr pots, put into veg tent, started automated feeding on light nutrients. Automated watering, pump turns on & waters plants for 15 minutes out of every hour. Recirculating hydro, I run air pumps to my resovoir to provide airated water/nutes to the plants. Hydro system is a 15 ltr pro pot recirculating adjustable height system. Inner & outer pots! Inner pot has plastic mesh type of bottom , holes everywhere to allow roots to grow through, this sits in a sealed pot apart from 19 mm drainage hose, & has 3 adjustable heights. Which is very handy when you have plants of different heights, as it helps to level them out. Drainage pipe is waround an inch or so off the bottom, so that their is always water/nutes in the bottom of pot, another reason I run air lines. Plants grow big root system's in it! At harvest time when I take the top pots out the roots have filled the entire space & are really compressed! Absolutely crazy! I run the same set up in veg & flower & as I grow perpetualy it makes it easy to simply pick up the inner pot & move it & place it in flowering tent & set up. System can be purchased with a 3rd pot as to be used upside down as a base to get pots of the ground so they can be drained back to a res. Instead of doing like that I simply built a table to sit the system on allowing me to drain it to a res underneath, it came at a good price as well, grows awesome plants.

9/12 Sprayed 1 tbsp K Bicarb with 1/4tsp dawn. Only had time to use a half gallon. I've used more but with all the defoliation this seemed to work and I was in a hurry. I can't ask those watching my plants to do actual labor when I'm not home. I wouldn't want anyone working on my plants but me anyway. I defoliated dead stuff. Still have this rusty looking leaves dieing on my ice cream cake. I need to finish a little defoliating. Broke out my 100x scope and checked a few buds. Things are exploding. Another nice sunny day today. Beastie bloom had no negative effects. I'll use it again and I'll probably use cha ching as well. Went back down to defoliate a little more. I'm getting excited. Still a lot of work left but it's nice to see the progression. Had to cut out a small nug last night that looked like it might start to rot. It was probably fine but I wasn't taking chances. It's so dank and crystally. One of my mystery seeds in the 5 gallon will be done soon. Milky trichs and hard as a rock. Im hoping they will beef up a bit. Little to no amber but things are progressing so fast. I mean nights are in the 40ยฐ's. 9/13 No need to water as it had rained so much the bags need to dry out. Sunny day today. Plants are doing great. Buds increase in bulk on the daily. Took a few pictures and defoliated what needed it. A dog was added to the grow for security. It hasn't gotten used to me yet but it's extremely loud and annoying. Nothing will get past it though. I tried to last night. I shut down the motion sensors informed the other growers (except the person who's shift it was to watch) and I couldn't make it down there on foot let alone a vehicle. Hope the dog liked me but it's certainly useful. It APPEARS we will be having some good weather so I'm excited. I think my plants will be able to finish properly. At least I hope. Either way if I have to harvest early do to the weather so he it but I'll cross that bridge when it comes. Plan to do a preventative BT spray this week. 9/14 FED TODAY. LOWERED GROW BIG TO HALF TBSP. AND AGAIN used 1/4 TBSP Beastie Bloom. Buds are swelling with the sunshine that we've had. I defoliated what needed it and found more dead foliage. It's so weird this damage. I'm pretty sure it's earwigs but the only bother new shoots so that's a good thing. Things are getting close and looking good. I need to do another app of BT. I heard a storm may be coming I'll need to check the weather. 9/15 After a few good days of weather we are in for some rain. Supposably a big storm but it looks like I won't get the worst of it. No water obviously. Something (probably earwigs or jpn beetles) eating or lollipopping lower things. They seem to leave flowers alone. It's just low shoots. Everything is flowering incredibly. I checked trichs on one of my mystery seeds and it looks done. I'm considering taking it. It's in my garage for 24 hrs of darkness and to avoid rain until I make my decision. I also took the two lowest branches off on DJ Short blueberry to taste test and see where I'm at. I probably shouldn't but o do this every year. It will be good to try the mystery bud before I harvest it all. It's just a little guy but the buds are rock hard and with the weather and pm and stuff I'm not sure what I'm going to do yet. UPDATE: APPARENTLY WE HAVE SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WARNINGS WITH GOLF BALL SIZED HAIL. I can move the other little ones in the garage but everything else is firmly rooted and have taken a beating already. I pray things will be ok. 9/16 No damage from the ridiculous storm last night. I need to spray ASAP. I have a fungal infection with just a few weeks to go. Looks like PM but I know some is a different fungal issue. I'll probably use the k bicarb or citric acid. So far no bud damage or damage up top. The things the earwigs ate were low like the lollipoped lower limbs. It's getting so close. I've been checking trichs and they look great but the buds have some filling out to do. 9/17 DID K BICARBONATE TREATMENT THIS AM. I didn't even look to see if I needed to water. Fuck. buds were soaking wet though so it must've rained. I have to go back down anyway to add a couple strings and do a little more defoliating. Did a treatment with k bicarb this morning.. 1 tbsp with dawn in a half gallon sprayer. I also need to address this earwig problem. They are ravaging some secondary lower branches and Im sure they are spreading disease. I only have a few weeks left and I want the best quality I can possibly get. I plan to put gorilla tape on the outside of the grow bag (double width) and petroleum jelly on the stems. That way they can't climb the bag. If they are in the soil of the bag hopefully the jelly will stop them. I'll also try beer as I've heard that works. I really don't want to resort to borax. Oh and I may have had a visitor last night. I'll have to check the cams. Nothing on the ones I checked but I have some game cams at different angles I haven't checked yet. It was probably just a nocturnal animal. Great to know that the dog announces though. This was at like 12:30 and I was out quick. I only have a few more weeks. I hope the cannabis gods are with me. 9/18 Whatever is eating my plants (earwigs I assume) are progressing from lower secondary or tertiary branches and new shoots to small buds. Looking at trichs some plants look ready. One seedling and the blueberries. I'd like the blueberries to go longer but I'd risk losing them. Fungal and mold issues aren't the greatest either. I was hoping for a big swell but if the weather stays raining and foggy like this it might be better to harvest a little early. I got a second opinion this morning and I'm leaning on taking the seedling and at least the one blueberry with the worst damage that dropped most of its leaves. I'll see how the bottom branch smokes this afternoon and make my decision then. Didn't feed for fear of lockout or if decide to cut. UPDATE: After the second consult with a different local grower I decided to harvest the blueberry that was furthest along and dropping it's leaves. It was done. Luckily it had been flushed with all this sheet rain we've gotten. It rains hard as I speak. Last year I think I had two strings the length of the huge garage and that lasted me all year. This one plant took an entire string to itself. If the weather cooperates this will be a good day. I also flushed the mystery seed I was going to take hoping it might fill out but trichs are very Amber and the bud is DENSE. Not risking mold or insect damage or theft. This took hours to harvest this ONE Blueberry plant. I had to harvest limbs. This was when I could see damage best. I also am curing the buds from the lower branch I took earlier and the other bud that is done. I plan on testing it out tomorrow. I could smoke now but Im already burnt and tired and want to try this with a clear head. I can't believe how long this took. One Big and one little down 10 more to go. Phone died so I couldn't take any pictures.

Targona, 43 days since my little girl sprouted from the seed ๐ŸŒฑ Sixth week of growth for my Red Pure Auto CBD ๐Ÿ’šโค๏ธ๐Ÿ’šโค๏ธ Nutrients: As I mentioned last time, I switched to mostly organic nutrients from Plagron and Biobizz๐Ÿ’“ - Plagron Alga Bloom - is a complete fertilizer designed exclusively for the flowering phase. It contains all the important substances that the plant easily absorbs ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒพ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Plagron Sugar Royal - is a supporting enzymatic fertilizer designed exclusively for the flowering phase. It contains hormones, enzymes, vitamins and trace elements necessary for proper flower development ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿญ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Plagron Green Sensation - Green Sensation is a professional flower stimulator and activator. It contains all the necessary ingredients that support flowering and also the formation of sugars, and thus the overall yield ๐ŸŒŠ๐ŸŒฟ -------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------- JUNGLE X Environ is a highly effective complex preparation for stimulating the formation of flowers ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿต๏ธ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------- BioBizz Bio pH - is an organic pH regulator. An aqueous solution of citric acid, which is naturally found in citrus fruits ๐Ÿ‹๐Ÿ‹ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------- I am no longer fertilizing Plagron Power Roots this week, it should be fertilized no later than the fifth week of plant growth. Anyway, this is the last watering that I mix like this. I will gently switch to mainly organic nutrients, with the addition of very gentle flower stimulants, which are only slightly or partially mineral. In general: Red Pure Auto CBD ๐Ÿ’šโค๏ธ๐Ÿ’šโค๏ธ - It is a beautiful plant. It still has deep green leaves, those that are close to the flowers are dark purple. It is clear that the flowers will be dark red, even purple. The plant responds well to everything from temperature, humidity, to excellent nutrient response, especially during the transition to flowering. It also responded well to the nutrient change in general. The truth is that I was very careful. Anyway, it looks really healthy and is enjoying life๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒบ๐ŸŒฑ Training: I did LST only on two small branches, which were blocked from the light by older strong branches and also a slight defoliation. It was really a few leaves that cast a shadow on the buds ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒž๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒž Light: Mars Hydro TS1000 The plants respond effectively and the light is technically very well managed - I try to have 50 cm between the light and the plants, so I move it up regularly ๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿ’ก Thanks for the likes See you soon ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜

Good week so far. Was away for a couple days and came home and theyโ€™re getting big :)) will be upping my nutrients slowly this week and possibly start some LST depending on how everything goes. If anyone has questions or advice please feel free :)

Did some defoliation now that they are solid into flower, to keep air flow to cut down on chances of mold and to expose lower bud sites to sunlight. I also fertilized again with about 2 buckets of 14 total gallons of water with above nutes minus flora gro, at 1300 ppms aprox.

Theyโ€™re on day day 35. The Ak rushed in front of the others, sheโ€™s getting frosty. The one in the back (super lemon) is taking her time, just beginning to flower. Iโ€™m bottom feeding them, in a bucket of water. They seem to like it, I water every other day. Thinking about some defoliation

Trichomes look small, not tall and big. I gotta stop complaining about everything. I have at least enough to get through the holidays and its good stuff. I suspect my real problem lies in dry and cure. Sometimes you pop a couple of autoflowers and they just grow like mad dogs and sometimes its a major challenge esp if you screw something up like over water. I maintain that i have never had a dry/ cure that ended up smelling like anything at all. I have been blaming the seed vendor but it just cant be as plenty of people have good harvests with same strain im doing. Problem is i have a neighbor whos having same issues. I got the idea of 70 degrees and 50-58% rh. Every dry and cure is different but i got my not good program from youtube videos. You never get enough information to learn anything most times and you still have to watch your grow like a hawk and be patient. I have a new program for dry. After the cut, the rh needs to be at least 60 from that time all the way into the jar and onward or you 100% lose terpines. Other thing is temprature. So i have a small room with a window ac unit and next dry will take 7-12 days at a constant temp of 65 , so ac will be on nonstop for a few days and rh has to stay at 60 so humidifier needs to be maintained. THE OTHER THING IS AIR CIRCULATION. YOU DONT WANT A FAN BLOWING ON IT BUT STAGNANT AIR IS NO GOOD. So, if this works, and i start getting that dank bag apeal with terps and sticky resin everywhere and crystals......What im thinking is hang it all in the tent which is in the room with ac unit and maybe 2 6 inch fans and exhaust on at 190 cfm. LET SIT IN DARK 48 HOURS BEFORE CHOP. The must have ac and 65degrees came from youtube guy i think canucks grow. Everything this guy touches turns to gold and his house is xtra clean. Its too clean. Has to have a cleaning lady. but hes changed his mind over time on dry and cure and the latest is 60 rh and 65 degrees temp to dry and 60 rh till its all gone. Maybe this will work and the harvest wont smell like hay or nothing at all. Growing weed is a big comitment and a shitload of work and you need to do alot of research and make all the mistakes i think. I dont know why people title "first grow ever" and it comes out looking like top shelf shit. I dont buy it. Its not that simple. Though with the right genetics and proper watering you could have an amazing harvest first time out. I just have a hard time accepting the fact that i have no idea what im doing and do not have the knowledge regarding nutrients and when and how much etc...but i have a good idea. This COVID SHIT IS SOME FREAKING SHIT but if you have an indoor garden to maintain, you always have something to look forward to. I gotta go see the Wizard. actually the Wizard owns the head shop and the grow supply guy who looks like he has been ripping bongs since a toddler, hes zombie boy. Zombie boy recommended that i add this fungal growth shit called orca and the main reason was i need it according to his assesment of what i said i was using and his final closing statement was, its only 10 bucks so.....and then hes like, you should buy some fish shit, you want some fish shit? What i want to do is make the clock go faster and it aint happening so plan next grow while maintain current. I got some skunk comming from seedsman if it ever gets hjere. Im going to treat the skunk better than i would a good friend!!!!!

Week 2 Veg Update on Epic Buzz by Anesia Seeds As we enter the second week of vegetation, our Epic Buzz seedlings are embracing their new home with vigor.: One of the seedlings has been carefully moved to the 20-liter reservoir. It has adapted well to its new environment, showcasing an impressive array of roots throughout the net pot, indicating healthy and robust development. Both plants are progressing as expected, with no significant issues to report. The steady growth and absence of complications suggest that the conditions in my indoor setup are well-tuned to the needs of Epic Buzz. The images captured this week show that the roots are not only healthy but thriving. They have begun to colonize the net pot, which is a strong indicator of the plant's potential for nutrient uptake and overall growth. With the transplant successful and the roots establishing themselves, I'm keen to see how the increased space and resources will accelerate growth. I expect that the coming week will bring even more visible progress as the plants continue to mature. Watching the Epic Buzz seedlings transition smoothly into the vegetative phase is both rewarding and exhilarating. The absence of any noteworthy problems speaks volumes. I'm looking forward to observing their journey and sharing their growth milestones with the community. Stay tuned for next week's entry, where I hope to report on the continued prosperity and vigor of Epic Buzz in its critical vegetative stage.

Week 7 of bloom, and Iโ€™m thrilled with how things are turning out!๐ŸŒŸ One of the plants has been fully flushed this week and is now ready to be harvested.๐ŸŒฑโœ‚๏ธ Itโ€™ll soon be hung up to dry, marking the end of its journey. This plant was incredibly quick, going from seed to harvest in record timeโ€”impressive!๐Ÿ‚๐Ÿ˜Š That leaves me with the other Banana Purple Punch, which has now started its flushing phase. In about 1 to 1.5 weeks, itโ€™ll spend 48-72 hours in complete darkness before being harvested. This plant is looking fantastic, and Iโ€™m excited to see how it finishes up. Overall, Iโ€™m very satisfied with this grow. Each plant has shown its unique character and pace, making the process both rewarding and educational. Canโ€™t wait to see the final results from the Banana Purple Punch!๐Ÿ˜Š
