Jan 25th - both photos are from last nite (24th) Water and Nutrients are now Max’d and will be for the next 3 feeds before tapering off towards a flush, end of week 9 - pics tonight of the skinny-assed Sativa leaves in and around the plants crown. -reined-in some of the taller branches by affixing them back onto the fabric pot. Pulling them down slightly. Jan 26, - raised the lights a couple of inches. Trying to keep top-leaf temps under the Room temp by at least a degree ~ 1.5 avg -seems that the blossoms have responded to all the food and water. Sticky Buds for the 1st-time and a Strong (beautiful) smell I cannot get my head around yet. Funky Citrus for sure. - R.H. dropped again ~ 50% - 3 tablespoons Molasses added for tonight’s feast. day 5 since last nutes *** just an observation; I’m either just at the right time in Flower, (week 6 of 11-13) or increasing the Ocean Magic content 3x has HAD a huge impact on the Bud development & Terpene population. There are Crystals galore on the sugar leaves and bud surfaces. 2ml/L on their Bottles product Label vs 8ml/L on the G.P. Nutrition Calculator, are each company recommendations on how to use the product... ? ! I’ve made the move to 8ml/L in the last 3 feeds. 30th Jan - big growth in the actual blossoms and hairs. The Left plant has flowers that have begun to wrap around the branches and join the other buds above and below. The stretch in the L plant had drastically slowed and the R plant is catching-up nicely ~ 7-10 days behind. 31st - top dressing the pot(s) tonight, ahead of their next feed. Quite a “settling” of the top surface since the first waterings. And now that they are getting some serious water (usually over a 3-4 hour period) there is room for ~ 2” soil, and another inch of Sand. Everything else has been Max’d, might as well include the playground !! - retained some of the original potting mixture, minus perlite & shrimp compost... that goes on tonight, 31st. ** ha, should be fun with all of the Stakes in the soil... focus, pic to follow Feb 1 - 16 Litre feeding tonight, to send the Ladies into the 2nd half of Flower. Planning & Maintenance is all I am thinking is left to do. Between the lines till 2nd week March ... -will try and get an image tonight showing the terpene explosion and changes happening on the plants - small increase in Molasses took TDS to 1370. No higher from here on in.

***UPDATE**** 6/17/2022 I forgot to mention that I transplanted both Big Bud Auto Plants, well slightly transplanted. I started Big Bud #1 off in a 16 oz grow cup and #2 I started off in a peat moss pod. Initially I just put the entire cup/pod into a 5 gallon pot without removing them from the container they were in. After a few days, I thought to myself "won't that restrict root growth somewhat?" so I took #1 out of the grow cup and transplanted directly into the soil in a 5 gallon and #2 I cut the white netting from around the peat moss pod and planted that directly into the soil in a 3 gallon pot. ***Update end*** Week 3 went by well. I'll admit I'm at the point where I've "been there done that" I don't pay as much attention to them and kind of let them do what they do. I lst'd Big Bud Auto #1, she is the healthiest and most robust of the group currently. Big Bud Auto #2 is sort of a runt compared to it's sister. I believe it may have to do to the fact that I started it in a peat moss pod and placed the entire pod into the soil. Caramelicious 2nd generation #1 is a project of mine. One of my plants hermied on my last grow and pollinated itself. This is one of the seeds from that Hermie. I am curious to see if it hermies or is a female. Because after all isn't forcing a female to hermie and pollinate itself is how feminized seeds are made? Needless to say I got over 1000 seeds, so I'm hoping that they are feminized. White Widow #3 popped up with severe helmut head, I tried my best to pull it off without damaging the plant, but ended up ripping a small piece of the tip of the plant. It is really small rn but seems to be growing. I'm curious to see how it grows. Lastly but not least there has been no action with my lavender and my hot chili peppers. I fed my ladies their first nutrients today. General Hydroponics Flora 3 part series. I mixed 1/4 ml into 3 gallons of water and ph'd it to 6.6 and fed each 1 liter.

What up family sorry for the late update, was out of town for the past week. Wow what a site when I opened the tent to plants that have tripled in size easily. They're just start the flower period so I'll switch the Nutrients over to Athena Bloom A & B as well as a P & K booster. They got a light defoliation before I left even though you can't tell, I'll be doing some more this week and doing a little lollipopping. All in all super excited for the flower period. Happy Growing

This summer is full of surprises! That's why I'm proud to introduce you to part of my new grow in collaboration with the amazing @Exotic_Seed 🙏 This adventure begins with Malasaña Gelato, a cross between (Gelato33 X Do-Si-Dos) X Malasaña Cookies that looks really good and yummy. 😛😛 I was really curious to try a new variety of Gelato, a strain that I have been in love with for a year now and I finally have the chance to expand my knowledge. The seed germinated in 24 hours directly in the soil, in the next few days I will transplant it into its final pot. 💪 The Malasaña Gelato will grow under the powerful light of my new Mars Hydro TS1000 for which I thank @MarsHydroLED and @SallyZou415 😘 A tasty summer is on the way!😍

Welcome to my Lemon Orange Diary sponsored by Green House Seeds. Day 57-64 Week 9 She grew very well. Really healthy through pre flower & very happy to be high stressed. Kept up with Atami Bloom Stim until mid wk 9. And then I started pushing PK booster from plagron and made sure silica boost was given for the stress. Which helped the nodes not break as I HST'ed after pre flower, so there was no growth in the nodes to spring them back up. So the stems walls needed to be strong. And they were. Some naturally did rise towards the light. But not enough to point to rapid but stiffness back into the nodes upward growth, so it's important to have strong membrane walls. After pre fower was over, I cleaned her up also. Took 70% of everything, (defoliation that was done over 3 days.)The other 30% was removed during ripening as it had loads of (hat leafs) leafs surrounding the tops of the main buds blocking light to buds below. Plant has moved great through pre flowering. Very uneven nodes. And where the rest of where my plants where I needed this smaller. So early into week 9 I lollipopped were I knew the HST bend be everywhere below it was stripped. 90% of the nodes where HST'ed. Maintenance Summary 1:Start of wk 9.i lollipopped her, Everything below the planned HST points was removed 2:Defoliations were done in 3 stages. Removing big fan leafs once pre fower was over..I left more than I normally would as HST was in the same wk so I didn't wanna stress too much 3: HST'ed was applied and to make sure she kept a level canopy her nodes were tied down. 4: made sure the soil didn't dry up and was given silica to protect the nodes main membrane as the nodes would be moving for a wk r 2 until it stiffened during fattening. Thanks to my sponsor from Green House Seeds for this amazing strain. Looking forward to seen what other gems I get from my other GHS strains for this crop. Sorry for delays in diaries. I'm trying to catch up. All sponsored diaries are my priority. Thank you for your patience (sponsors)

I love how everything has came along so quickly. Absolutely love going Organic with compost tea brewing at home and molasses. Using Neem for pests and mold. Absolutely loving the results so far. Using a California Lightworks SolarSystem 550 with view mode, custom spectrums, program a whole season..... etc. I hate the measuring system for nutes on here. Im all organic so using compost tea I mix about 1/4 to the rest water and water in plants ev other watering.

Bin schon richtig gespannt wann das Ende naht. Momentan schauen pineapple und papaya schon gut aus. Trichome sind aber alle noch milchig bis klar Der Platz wird auch langsam eng, Muss jetzt wahrscheinlich den lichtzyklus auf 12/12 ändern da die Photos schon ne gute Größe haben

Have some Hurkle regular seeds i got my hands on. I germinated them and they sprouted. Pictures are a real testament to genetics, and pheno types. all planted same day other the same circumstance and rotation in hot spots. all diff sizes and leaves are a different health. This grow is an experiment the weakest one will stay in the tent and go 12/12 after its first set of true leaves to see quality. the 2 bigger ones will be for an outdoor balcony grow on the lake. Direct sunlight from 6am-2pm. Right now they are in the tent for another week until the temperature is a little more consistent outside. then i will transplant.

If I don’t count the first week, considered like the first stage of germination, they’re growing in soil since 3 weeks. All strains seams to be extremely vigorous and are doing great 👍 It’s gonna be the time to top the seedlings, cutting all the 4th nodes in an advanced stage and reducing the seedlings to 3 nodes, making the sides shoots of the 3rd node the 2 future main branches of the plant ! Which is the first step to build a ScrOG. Later on, those 3 lil nodes will become the main trunk of the plant . Cutting short in the early stage avoid to get a long trunk and long legs later in the growth. ( I’m looking for a job in the Cannabis industry as Master Grower, Mineralogist, Quality Control 🐞 )

Die Pflanze wurde Mitte letzter Woche an Tag 66 geerntet. Getrocknet wurden die Blüten 6 Tage lang bei einer Luftfeuchtigkeit von 53% bevor sie nun ins Glas kommen. Getrimmt wurde die Pflanze trocken.

So I found my issue with my droopy leaves and light leaves. Not enough water and she wants more phosphorus. I up'ed my water time to 15 mins 7x a day. (Ebb & flow in clay pellets). This week she has gotten most of her green back but I feel it's delayed the flowering alittle. Maybe not. This is my 1st auto and it's only supposed to have a week left. We will see.

This lady has gone through many changes this week.. Firstly I tightened the scrog net and she was stripped of her fan leaves and the lower future bud sites have reacted well to the light. She has grown immensely in the last 2 weeks and I have now stopped tucking her under the net. She is starting to shoot out her Pistils and beginning to form tricomes on her leaves. Exited too see what she does this coming week!!!! =D
