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.

Been another week of crazy stretch for the sugar cane and apple sundae. Been supercropping several branches because they have maxed out my light height at over 4 ft tall. The slurricanes are looking much more manageable and it looks like the stretch is about over on all of them. I switched them over to maxibloom and added a little liquid koolbloom and Beastie blooms to start feeding those flowers. The room is definitely filled up now. just have to keep the juice pumping and see what they do.

This week the girls were covered in snow. I've never seen anything like it with my own eyes before, only in pictures :D The lower large leaves have turned yellow, but this time don't panic :D experts say it's normal.

The flowers are beautifully colored.💐💚 The scent is extremely sweet and reminiscent of strawberries..🍓😛 The weather is not good, it's summer and it's still raining. The worst summer in the last 10 years.. Temperatures around 20 degrees Celsius during the day, dropping below 15 at night.. Despite the weather, the flowers still look very good, the humidity outside is high and I'm afraid of mold. The air in the greenhouse is maximally circulated.. After a thorough inspection, no mold was found, I'm very happy that it's not raining on my beautiful flowers. I add Plagron to the maximum, the flowers love it..

Would definitely recommend for an easy grow. Takes forever due to 100% sativa genetics but well worth the grow. Smells just like cannalopes with a hint of cocoa and a strong dank/sour odor. High is fantastic starting and feeling heaviest right behind the eyes/sinuses. Spreads to extremities in a slight relax feeling. The taste and smell of the smoke is extremely smooth and tastes like the sour + cantaloupes. The buds have a lot of shades of green but are predominantly dark covered in crystals. Smell isn’t extremely strong in bag but once buds begin breaking apart it is almost unbearable and resin makes it hard to break apart by hand do grinder is needed.

Things are going pretty well. 🙂 I am just about to start flushing. Buds are swelling up and getting denser every day. Getting close to the finish line. 😎 I'll update throughout the week.

Ich habe die Damen entlaubt, sie haben es unterschiedlich gut weggesteckt. Sie entwickeln sich super aber im Gegensatz zu anderen Auto eher langsam. Meine Lampe ist auf 75% und mehr wollen die Pflanzen auch nicht! Ich hatte auch kurz LST versucht musste aber aus Platz gründen wieder entfernen da ich sonst 1 Pflanze aus den Schrank holen müssen und das wollte ich nicht weil sie alle gesund und munter sind.

This was my second time with blue dream, I think she is a keeper. This was my first time using the Terpinator. It does make quite a difference👏🏻 The buds were so frosty I felt like they were begging to be used in something so i made gummies, and glad I did. Wynonna is right behind her and I plan on trying my luck with Moon Rocks. She put on a bit of frost thanks to the Terpinator so I have high hopes- pretty high period 👍🏼😀 Growing your own is such a great thing 👍🏼 GrROWDIARIES is such a 🆒 site and the little bit of contact that I’ve had has been so pleasant😀 As soon as I get comfortable (know what the fuk I’m doing) I will take advantage of more 🆒shit the GD community has to offer

So this shit really stinks. I threw up trimmer her twice and had to leave the room for a bit. She's a solid 17% THC with very strong Cerebral effects. I have a high tolerance and typically love to seek out high THC, but with the terpene profile of this girl, it's hard not to indulge. Check out all of these active terpenes found in the lab test: Total Terpenes =1.72% Terpinolene 0.4% beta-Myrcene 0.37% beta-Pinene 0.1% Linalool 0.1% D-Limonene 0.09% Caryophyllene Oxide 0.09% alpha-Pinene 0.08% delta-3-Carene 0.07% Eucalyptol 0.07% trans-Nerolidol 0.07% Camphene 0.06% beta-Ocimene 0.05% alpha-Humulene 0.05% cis-Nerolidol 0.05% gamma-Terpinene 0.04% alpha-Terpinene 0.03%

PLEASE READ TO THE VERY BOTTOM. so you'll be thinking WTF is this I'm seeing ? weeeellll....I put myself on a task to see what I could do to grow decent grade cannabis with minimal supplies that a newbie would use for example.... outdoor dirt, expect I mixed 25% canna pro soil , cheap nutrients, non PH'd water and leaving it outside to feel the wrath of mold and things like that..... it was started in march under a 300w cfl for 1 week then left outside, I had fungal issues because I was water the leafs and leaving it out in the heat done on purpose), I left bugs on it and just general things that would happen to the newbie outdoor grower. it wasn't till I seen pre flowers I started using my indoor and general garnering skills to get the plant back to normal. I wasn't doing this for yield I was doing this as a bet and to prove.... you don't need all this fancy stuff or to be brilliant..... all you need is good genetics and a bit of love,care and skill with plants and you'll be rewarded for your time. also growing any cannabis plant in non ideal conditions probably isn't easy for the newbie grower but this is just to show it can be done in the UK even when you Fu#k up on purpose or not.... you'll still get nice cannabis.....NOW... after the tangerine autoflower is done I will be starting my next round of photoperiods in my tent so now I can bring you along and show you how I would normally grow cannabis instead if these kinda rubbish examples and show you some good looking, well grown buds along with a few other auto house plants☺.

Good week, starting to get tons of bud sites. Did a clean up of all the lower branches and foliage to keep my focus on track. Top dressed some nitro bat to help with the small nitrogen deficiency.

Took video of them this week you can really see some of the fan leaves getting real dark which I love!!! I did start a second journal of this exact same strain but I’m gonna try and get the optimal environment for that so make sure to be on the look out for that. They’re getting dense even tho they’re under a crappy light. This weeks EC is .8 then we flush for the next 7-10 days. Thank you all again for watching.

Tag 45: Hab die Green Gelato ganz schön ausgehackt 😬 Sie ist sehr schnell gewachsen, bin gar nicht hinterher gekommen. Durch die Wärme ist die Pflanze recht hell geworden ich gebe ab sofort Alg a mic dazu um ihr hoffentlich etwas grün zurück zugeben.

This strain is a dream to grow, if you haven't tried it yet, it's amazing, it's easy, it's lush and vibrant, full of energy from seed to smoke. Great for organic grow styles and a fun plant to grow. The smoke I will update in the smoke review! I do not have words for the quality of this strain. In everything. Grow this and be absolutely amazed by its performance. I had won the seeds with the Halloween give-away but they are a sure winner and a keeper. @SweetSeeds congratulations on a champion auto-strain. I've grown auto's before, only outdoors, but nothing like this, nothing this big in such a short time, and this resilient for not only mistakes but everything. This plant will perform even if you were to mess it all up. Keep to 20 liters grow bags for best performance as you could see with my two plants. One as more developed, although everyone says over 15 ltr makes no difference, with organic coco hybrid super soil, it does. It is the difference in buffering of nutes, PH, heat, and moisture. Way less hassle in the bigger pot and this was an excellent learning curve. This grow started out as a match between Forbidden Runtz by Fastbuds and XL Runts by Sweetseeds. But since the playing field was uneven (pot wise but also heat and fresh air wise), the results do not count in my opinion. But my guess is (since I haven't weighed the Forbiddens) that the XLs for now won. But as I said it would not be fair. We will do the contest again when said playing field is level. For now thank you again for checking my diaries, if you have any questions or comments, always welcome my friend. Big Hug Bud

D78 - We're just starting week seven of flower, and the girls are rocking it in the tent. I'm thrilled with how they are coming along. The buds are fattening up, with a more intense smell than they had only a few days ago. I'm starting to see the first signs of fading, and the trichomes are clear/milky with an odd amber here and there. I estimate that chop day is a couple of weeks off, which would bring it to eight weeks of flower. ________________________________ D80 - Pics ________________________________ D82 - I have been stuck in trim jail so it has been a couple of days since I looked in on the girls. They didn't miss me though as everything is just humming along. They look and smell amazing, citrus and pine, and the buds are fattening up with each passing day. Some additional fade but not much, to be honest. ________________________________ D84 - We are indeed on the home stretch at the end of the seventh week of flower. The girls look great with only a slight fade until now. I'm starting to see some amber trichomes but want more before harvest. Judging from how the trichomes have progressed this week, I say chop day is a week off.
