During week 7 the 3 plants continue to grow outstandingly well! The BADAZZ-CHEESE and ZHEETOS from BIG BUDDHA SEEDDS have a healthy green color and grow so much foliage that I have to defoliate on a regular basis. On day 43 (=flowering day 19) I take off all bigger fan leaves in order to ensure a better airflow thru the closet. The humidity is unfortunately still on the high side and sometimes exceeds 80% in the daily maximum, that is MUCH too high during flowering. I increased the dose of BIO NOVA nutrients according to their feeding scheme and all plants LOVE IT! The ZHEETOS #1 plant grows much taller than her sister ZHEETOS #2, therefore I decide to SUPER-CROP her on Day 48 (=FD 23). This technique developed by SOMA from SOMA-SEEDS is one of my favorites and I use it since years in order to bush out plants, which grow to high. Appr. 15-20 cm from the top of the plant, right above an internode, I take the main stem between two fingers and press very hard until I can feel the fibres inside the stem brake. By slowly pressing all around the diameter of the stem I create a weak spot at which I bend over the stem, so it looks 90-180 degrees downward. I do this very carefully to NOT BRAKE the outer skin of the stem while I bend the stem downwards. Even if some fibres brake, the stem will repair itself within a few days to a week and then start to point upwards again...👍😃 During the time the main stem needs to repair itself, all other side-stems will grow more upwards and this makes the plant bush out more. At the same time a super-cropped plant will produce bigger buds at harvest time, than a plant where you did not do that. Somehow the plant reacts to being hurt by getting stronger and producing more! CHECK OUT THE VIDEO ABOVE TO SEE ME SUPER-CROP! 😎 I also took a video ONE DAY after the procedure (on DAY 49), in order to show how resilient the plant is and how much she immediately repairs herself. Already then the main top has turned and points upwards to the light again, ITS FANTASTIC TO SEE! Simply a miracle plant...

🌱 Start: 17.07. 🌱
Hello everyone! This is my very first grow and I'm thrilled to share every step with you! 🎉 I'd appreciate any tips you might have to help me achieve the best results! 😊
Equipment:
I've geared up with an Indoor Grow Kit from MarsHydro along with some BioBizz supplements to ensure my plants get the best care. 🌿
🌼 Seeds:
I opted for Fast Buds seeds after hearing great things about them. They were delivered super fast—just two days! I’m especially excited to test the C4 strain. 🚀
I've begun soaking the seeds and setting up my space. Eagerly awaiting the transition to the next stage in a day or two! 🌱
📅 Update: 19.07.
All three of my C4 seeds sprouted 1-2 cm within just 1.5 days! 🌱 It’s often recommended that autoflowers be planted directly into their final home, so I'm following that advice.
I'm working on improving the air circulation in my tent to ensure the best environment for growth. 🌬️
I'm currently using 0.2L cups with big holes over the sprouts to maintain higher humidity during their initial two weeks. 💧
🎉 UPDATE 22.07. - THEY ARE ALIVE 🎉
My C4 sprouted on 20.07., and I'm overjoyed to soon share photos and a video of my little green buddy! 📸🎥
PS: My plant enjoys 2 hours of chill jazz music every day! HAHA 🎷🎶

These buds were giants, fat and sticky, the aroma of these plants was very robust with heavy aromas with subtle hints of citrus, fruity sweetness, with hints of sour diesel, I could swim in the smell, these buds just blew me away!

Bueno Fumetillaas ! Acá ya vamos con nuestras primeras hojitas ! Logrando obtener un crecimiento óptimo y esperando tener las mejores condiciones ... Tenemos un buen sustrato aún no fertilizamos ya que el sustrato tiene el alimento necesario.
Por este a la semana 2 o 3 haremos el primer riego de fertilizantes no se preocupen el reporte y el proceso lo subiremos para que vean cómo aplicarlos o diluir con eso llevamos el reporte.
De esta linda semana un saludo y un abrazo ! Dudas o consultas dejarla en los comentarios para ayudarnos mutuamente
Abrazo !

Well I almost out of my base nutrients and the grow store and everywhere else was sold out tell next month so I had to switch to my Jungle Juice I had left from my last grow. I have roughly 80ml left of the other stuff and I'd rather save that for my 2x2 grow that's still going.
Adjusted all the lights up to make more light in the room. Now there is a good solid light amount across the room and should have to worry with any light burns or anything.
Had a bit of yellowing in some of my leaves. Think it's because I was running my PPM so low before. Now that I've cranked it up a bit I hope it corrects itself.
Well that's all so happy growing everyone!!!

Autos are just starting to flower the photos are dying for some bigger pots. I've been trying to bring up the overall plant health in general since moving everything to a basement the temps are a little lower than ideal. I had a space heater delivered today and monitored the temps but they only went up to around 78°f I want it to be atleast 82°f ideally 85. The heater uses 1500 watt and only increased it about 2 or 3°. I dont think it's worth the extra cost for such little boost. I'm thinking about returning the heater and throwing a 1000w hps in one of the other tents and see if that will raise it anymore. Especially with LED and co2 higher temps would be very beneficial in veg and early flower but the room is so big its gunna be tough to pull off without killing me on electric costs. Any suggestions are welcome. I know this room does decent in flower but I havnt done much veg work down here and I'll have some autos growing this round so it's important I get it up.

Her tap root sprouted within 12 hours of wetting! I moved her from paper towels to the aerocloner after only one day.
Mokum’s Tulip was the 1st Prize Best Indica, in the Clouds in the City Cup 2019.
She is a Gelato-based feminized seed variety which has a sweet candy scent similar to a Dutch Tulip. She is very strong with mind-numbing effects achieved by crossing selected Gelato and Sherbet genetics. Terpene rich and THC rich, this XXL variety has rock hard buds, heavy yields and an exhilarating high.

Week 10 Update
This week overall looks solid. The plant is in good health and has responded really well to the topping I did last week. The canopy has filled back out, it’s denser, and the structure is becoming more balanced.
During this session I went in with a major defoliation, another topping, and some LST to shape the plant. Unfortunately, while doing the training, one of the junctions between a branch and the main stem cracked slightly. To support the recovery, I applied a small piece of tape as a bandage to help the plant heal and close the wound.
Structurally, we now have four main branches, each with two fresh tops — which means eight apexes in total. The plan now is to let her recover gently and monitor how she develops over the next days.
Environmental conditions are stable. Temperatures have cooled a bit, averaging around 22–23°C, with relative humidity hovering close to 70%. This range feels comfortable for the plant.
Regarding pH, I no longer check the runoff in the saucers because it doesn’t make sense. Fresh nutrient solution leaving the reservoir at 5.9–6.0 will measure fine at first, but three days later the leftover solution in the saucer gives a completely different number. It’s not representative, so I just focus on locking the reservoir pH between 5.9 and 6.0. The plant seems to handle this approach very well.
Nutrients remain unchanged for now. I may have added a touch of Rhino Skin, which I didn’t mention earlier in the diary, but it’s there to start strengthening the plant tissues in preparation for heavier branches later.
So far, everything is steady. We’ll let her settle, recover, and keep following the evolution week by week.

8/9
The two half-feeds of Foop seemed to have turned the nutrition tide.
The top dressing I applied (with mulch this time) should be kicking in over the next few weeks, but I'm leaning toward continuing to feed Foop once or twice per week to keep things moving along nicely.
Flowering is now kicking into high gear... with the Pineapple Meatball being the farthest along and the French Macaron being the least.
Ordered Lacewing larvae and wasp eggs (that are parasitic to caterpillars) on the way.
Hoping to get them applied by the end of this week.
8/11
Insects deployed.
