So WHY is this auto taking so damn long to mature??? Is this normal? It's my first hydro grow, but my wife's soil grow started after mine (more than a week) + was grown in the exact same room .... but has been harvested over the past TWO weeks. Thoughts? Not much needed doing this week. Did a huge trim mid week that was posted to a mid week update in last week's diary entry. She didn't like it at first but then bounced back pretty well. I think I have a very slight touch of nutrient burn on some of the tips, but it could also be a touch dry as we're having a hard time keeping the room over 40% humidity as the outdoor temps here are stupid cold recently. Hoping to harvest in 2 weeks or so.. but could be longer. Urgh. She's a big, bountiful, heat-loving lady that's finally a under a bit of vegetative control... but apparently REALLY likes to take things slow.

Had my fair share of issues this week with the lsd25 auto. growth has almost completely stopped. I had to move her to her own 1.2m x1.2m tent as she outgrew the 1m x 1m closet. Shes been in a constant droop. Leaf tips curled down. Growth slowed right down. brown spots and yellow lower leaves. Made alot of changes so hopefully she perks back up now. Shes a beast!

*Early Flower 09/10* (2) Fastbuds - Mimosa Cake Auto Aggressive LST was applied for even light coverage. Smaller-Lagging budsites and bigger fan leaves under net have been removed. Slight increase in nutrient feeds, thus far 0 signals of deficiencies. *Mid week update - 09/13* Both plants have grown approximately 6 inches in height Early flowering continuing to progress accordingly Half a gallon increase in water feed (Nutes included) *End of week recap 09/16* Mimosa Cake (Auto) - Both in week flowering accordingly Small increase on nute feeds - Moderate increase in filtered plain water feed (1.5 gallons ) *SEE END OF WEEK RECAP VIDEO*

Hello y'all! Today marks the last day of the third week of flowering. At the start of this week I watered the plant with 1 liter of plain water, no excess draining. I also applied some extra LST, I really wanted to expose as much as possible the buds. My light is not that powerful, it produce real 70/75 watts... so I do my best to take advantage of it with some LST and a major defoliation. I took out 13 leaves, some of them were a bit crushed or damaged so they had to go to create more space for the light and overall for the health of the Titan. Some of them they were just making too much shade on the buds so they also had to go ahhahaha Couple of days ago I watered with 3 liters of water with nutrients. The excess was 1.5 liter. I found the limit of the pot, around 2.5/3 liters of water per week. That's the sweet spot. I was concerned that the plant didn't drink enough but then if I take in consideration that the pot is only 7 liters and I did fill it with around 6 liters of soil...then I think is more than fine as it it. We will see. So in conclusion this week the baby got roughly 4 liters of water adjusted to pH 6.3. The water that drained off the pot was around pH 6.7/6.8. I think is a little too much and I am considering to water next time with pH around 6.0 o 6.1 maybe I will be able to drop the pH of the excess water to 6.6 or 6.5. We will see. The temperature is constantly around 21 to 23 degrees celsius and the humidity at the moment is constantly under 50%. At least I don't have to worry about mold. I hope. The smell is strong with some mango scents, amazing plant! I hope it smokes also as good as it smells! I wanted to point out something that I've noticed and it popped in my mind. My pot was for 7 liters but in the pot I have roughly 6 liters of soil. So there is some extra empty space for soil on the very top of the pot. The problem is that I noticed that on the very bottom of the main stem the plant tried to sprout some extra roots but because there was no soil around it they didn't spread and died straight away. I've noticed that the plant could be much stronger or bigger if I let her root also a bit higher on the main stem... but because there was no soil around the stem the roots didn't come out from there. You can see it in the last picture. I circled in red the spots. I believe I could do much better if the roots were starting a lil higher on the stem and not just where is the soil. If you don't get me or im unable to explain myself cus im stoned then please give a look at the last picture of this week. You will understand what I meant, if not peace and love the same hahahaha Overall I believe everything is going in the right direction, in 2 weeks +- I should harvest. I hope I can get 50 g dry of this plant. See you next week guys!

Had to tie branches up to take weight, gonna be a beast 😬🔥👊🏻 Fully flushed and ready for the chop!

I let the soil start to dry after a week of just water, hung them upside down for 14 days 18-26°c 60%RH. The tremors got higher than I would like during drying but it is summer!

Cosechamos, luego cuando seque les comento cuanto sacamos de esta planta. Un buena experiencia de cultivo invernal, complicado pero luego le encontramos la vuelta. Mimosa no le gusta mucha intensidad de luz en vegetativo, y le gusta poca agua. En flora si come un monton y banca bastante.

***added dry weight with scale pics*** *******WET WEIGHT UPDATE********** weighed after 2 days of drying does not include 370g of sugar leaf/popcorn bud This leg of my growing adventure is coming to a close, all plants have been harvested. Trimming took approxiatley 16 hours, for the haul not too bad. only used a pair of 2" curved shears, only pair I've used and first trim I've done but my hand never got tired. The smell on the other hand was overwhelming, after a while had to open a window due to getting a bit light headed. While a little awkward at first really got the hang of it around hour 10, only to get sloppier leading up to hour 16, where more added to the trim and popcorn bud racks. 1 rack is 2'x4' and the other is 3'x5', lots of trim but so many popcorn buds. Didn’t do any wet weighing of the bud, due to the amount and limited time allowed to cut and trim weighing would have taken much too long. I’ll give a dry weight once the bud is ready to separate and jar up for the cure.8042000000

Day 12 since flip. Not too much to report, we’re going thru the early flower stretch. Plants are enjoying the environment and are perked up. During this time we slowly ramp the lights up about 1-2% each day until we get to about 80%, that’s usually the max I can run this light in a 4x4. Slowly ramping up the light can avoid the stress caused by blasting your plants all at once. I’ve seen too many stress herms in early flower caused by too intense light. We will also begin to lower humidity by about 3% each week to increase VPD as the plants begin a higher rate of transpiration. We will also do a final clean up of the lower skirts again probably around day 21 (after they have finished their stretch) to ensure energy is directed towards top colas, and to ensure no funny business (herms) are going on underneath which is always a possibility with feminized seeds VPD: 1.22 🌡️: 78 Fahrenheit 💦: 60% 💡: 55% @ 20 inches (550 Ppfd) Just plain tap water until medium is saturated. Currently each lady gets about one gallon of water every 4 days.

9.10 Coming close to the finish line! Began the flush this morning. 5 gals. Will do another 5 gals in three days. Then another 5 gals three days after than! 9.11 Was suprised to see that the soil was drier than expected. Flushed with another 5 gals today. HUMIDITY HAS BEEN (BASICALLY) UNCONTROLLABLE THIS WHOLE SUMMER NO LESS than 70% and this girl has handled it beyond well! 9.13 Flushed with a final 5 gals. 9.14 -check out the video 9.15 Will be watering a gal today, tomorrow, and Sunday 9.16 watered a gal 9.17-9.18 did not water Probably will not water until she gets the chop 9.19 24hrs of darkness the harvest --------------------------------------------------------- nowayReggie

These girls are 5 days old under 16 w cfl. The one wrapped is only 2 days old in soil. The medium is a mix of mostly coco and some sohum soil. (Seeds are photoperiod) The T5 17w lights have definitely changed their behavior, they’re not shooting upwards in length no more. What do you guys think?

Let up all but a couple ties on each plant, definitely the mains are let off. Just kept a couple for airflow that will be unpinned eventually. Topped and supercropped a few taller branches to make the canopy even. Finished taking out the larf at the bottom, adjusted the lights brighter. Topdressed them with Build-A-Flower. Fed them their first non-casting fertilizer, Build-Bloom @ 1 tsp. http://twitch.tv/jaindoh

Week 5 things are really filling out, 3 blue kings and GDP are stacking like Legos, fruity pebbles is continuing to get stickier and frontier. Gdp showing signs of yellowing. So might give a small nitro boost. And the girls we're thirsty a tad. Overall everything looking great!

Hey 👻 After many months without updates, here's a little one. These are the originals mother plants, i took 100's of clones out of em and then flipped to bloom 2 months ago. Here's a few pics of different bloom stages 👆 I began flush today after aprox. 60 days of bloom, i'm looking fwd to cut in 7-10 days, depending on trichomes 👍 I'm not expecting a big harvest but at least a quality one ! I kept a few phenos of Peach Tree, Pink Gasoline and L.A. Kush Cake 🙌 I'll post a final update when i'll harvest 😉

Praying my girls are not all in different stages of dying 😭More to follow... 1/9/21 These girls were finally dry enough to water I weighed each post before and after watering. I am going to try weighing the pots and water when the weight is about half as dry.as I normally do. So Maybe I should water @ 3lbs heavier... somewhere between 8-9lbs 1/10 I changed the light cycle so that my "night time" is in the middle of the day for heating reason, so this morning when I woke up, after being under the lights for 18 hours I actually had growth on two plants. Gorilla Glue and my photo plant Chocoloope that is growing with the autos. They were both under the VIPARSPECTRA 2020 Pro Series P1000 LED Grow Light. The other two plants were under BLOOMSPECT Double Chips Series 1500W LED Grow Light Full Spectrum. I wish I hadn't made so many mistakes with this grow because I know there is no way to know if it is the light that made them grow better than the other two or they were just a little healthier. I don't think so because Gorilla Glue is the worst plant and she actually grew but who knows. Anyways I switched the plants around so they are under the opposite light when their day time starts and we will just have to see. PE Length 8' Height 7' Width 8.5" Dry weight 6lb 4oz Wet weight 13lb 11oz GG Length 8" Height 7" Width 8.5" Dry weight 5lb 14 oz- Wet weight 11lb NB Length 11" Height 10 " Width 10.5" Dry weight 6lb 9 oz Wet weight 12lb Choco Length " Height Width " Dry weight Wet weight 1/11/21 DAY 46S HELP if ANYONE SEES THIS .... last night I decided not to switch the plants around after all, but I did rearrange the tent because I had a plug running through door and I am still struggling to regulate the humidity and temp. I thought I still had good air circulation but apparently I did not and the plants are not happy. Gorilla Glue is not going to make it. She turned real dark green after watering her on Saturday, she had a small amount of growth Sunday but now all the leaves are laying down. I don't know if I should use Sledge hammer but after flushing a week ago letting her dry for a week and then watering Saturday I don't know if I flushed her with sledge hammer if that would finish her off or perk her back up. I weighed her and she was 4 pounds lighter than when I watered her on Saturday and still 2+ pounds lighter than when she is the driest. Some background on how I tried to kill my plants... 😭 I started this grow by watching a zillion videos with my key take away being 1-don't over water 2- don't transplant autos 3- don't feed full strength. I took it seriously, so my tiny little sprouts were put into 3 gallon pots of Fox Farm happy frog potting soil. (didn't realize this already had enough nutrients to last several weeks so I started nutrients in the 2nd week of Veg) I use Fox farm nutrients and follow their soil feeding schedule. I bought the Dirty Dozen starter kits and it did not have 2 products in that the feeding schedule but since they were not in the kit I assumed they must not be too important. They were.... Wholly Mackerel & Marine Cuisine fertilizer. I used a turkey baster to slowly drip a couple ounces of water around each plant I water just like in this picture. https://prnt.sc/wjq0gi for over a month. I didn't realize by watering like this for a month that I was making the nutrients build up just below the the root line each watering. I waited to water till the plants were very dry. Now looking back Way way to dry before watering. I am sure that is why they were not growing. I was only giving them enough to stay alive not thrive. So a little more back info Day 14 I watered the plants with plan water Day 23 after not having to water the plants for 9 days I watered them, 1/4 gallon each with week 2 schedule, with the addition of calmag+(2-0-0) @ 50% strength Day 27 they were light and needed to be watered and they had grown a little. so I gave them nutrients same as above Day 30 The plants were not quit as dry as usual but I was beginning to think I was underwatering them so I gave them 1/2 gallon of THIS IS WERE IT ALL GOES WRONG...(Actually after reviewing my grow journal just now my problems started Day 1 and was showing signs I just didn't know it and I still am not sure how to fix any of it Almost makes me think I should scrap it all and start over. These poor plants will be lucky to produce anything) Someone could seriously use my grow journal as a "everything not to do" guide. Day 35 since the plants were finally big enough to soak the pots fully. I also decided since they had used 1/2 gallon water in 3 days and they grew a ton I upped the nutrients to full strength and the calmag plus as well. This was the first time I had any runoff sadly I let the plants sit in the runoff and reabsorbed all the runoff. Day 38 Flushed each plant with with 5 gallons of tap water that had a PH of 6.4 & water temp was 62 degrees. My run off started at 4300ppm with a ph of 6.2. The PH was consistent in every plants runoff and all of them had off the chart PPMs. I brought NB down to 250ppm. Gorilla Glue and Pineapple express I brought the runoff down to 450. For some reason I decided that since my plants were probably in shock from no water and nutrients to more water and a whole lot of nutrients and I figured flushing them would reset the soil and I reasoned they would need food after not getting any from being in shock so I gave them each a half strength nutrients. I waited a full week then posted this question. Day 45 I have each plant plain water and checked the run off. The Gorilla Glue had a run off of 584ppm with a ph of 6.47 , The northern lights X had 750ppm and 6.38ph pineapple express had 1170ppm runoff so I ran a less less than an extra half gallon of water and that brought the ppm down to 706. PH was 6.3. I have a photo period that I didn't add to this dairy but has been with these plants and it is starting to show the same signs as the others they are just all in different phases of whatever I did to almost kill them. I started the next week on Friday so I will be adding pictures and a couple videos I took from today in my grow dairy tonight. I don't know what to do next.

Week 5 Day 29 Performed extra LST and fed her 7.5ml/1gal of floranova bloom to start flowering season!! Day 30 Spent the whole morning outdoors until 2.00pm Day 31 Plan on to make Scrog soon for the ladies, in the meantime we continue their sun and light schedule 19/5 lately Day 32 Gave her some water early morning and took her outdoors until 3pm Showed her first white hairs We were wondering when And omg here we go! Day 33 Fed her extra 5ml (flora Nova bloom) Raise from 1300 to 1450ppm Day 34 Those nutes are doing her very well Woke up like this! Day 35 Showing more tiny hairs all around Day 36 Developing more leaves and hairs to start making Buds full of Trichomes :)!

It's a New year, Happy 2024 Grow Diaries. Let's start with the video, I have been keeping an almost 12-12 on the plants, Watering heavy and feeding every 2-3 days. I am using additives to gain a resin boost. We are all in flower and doing fine after ICU 😓 One top cola was burned from the light creating a triple top. 2 seeds are the stars of the diary M1 and M2, although they're all FB420 seeds. I hope you enjoy our variety and the demographic information that I am sharing growing these seeds. Everyone Grow On 🤭😁

167 grams for 2 plants. went 9 weeks, Had a bit budrot in one of the phenos at week 10. Very easy to grow, not a big stretcher imo. Maybe double it size. Havee a gassy pheno and a fruity pheno. If you look for a outstanding indica with extra on the taste e and smell and a heavy hitter...search no further
