Plant 3's buds are really bulking up comparted to the rest. They are more square topped buds than the rest that are Christmas tree shaped. I'm keeping an eye on the trichomes. They are looking nice. Harvest is almost here!!!

Every other day I'm checking to make sure none of the fan leaves are blocking light. If I find a leaf that is, I have trimmed it. So far I think I've trimmed 6 or 7 fan leaves. Buds are starting to pop up just about everywhere. I've kept to the same watering regimen, and nutrient amount. I can sure smell her now tho, and I love it.

it was interesting and easy, the variety has a very high potential, the plant has survived both a deficit and an overdose, but she coped well! the effect is pleasant and strong. I recommend an excellent variety for its price!

Today marks week 9 of the red poison auto flower. I started the flushing process this week. The Trichomes were starting to get milkiy on week 8 so I decided to flush the plant since I am looking for 65 to 80 % of milkiy for my final product. I am going to flush for 2 week for the best results (in my opinion) since the medium I am using is soil. Instead of feeding her nutrients on October 16 2019 I just gave her the 1.5 gallons of PH(FOR SOIL 6 - 6.8) water with molasses.. I checked the run off water and the PH was 6.8 and my PPM was high at 1336. So on October 19 2019 I did a extreme flush of my auto in a 7 gallon soil pot. (I have tried flushing with certain agents in the past but from my experience and opinion I feel that flushing with just PH water works fine.) Well I flushed the plant down from 1336 to 336. I would have preferred a PPM level below 200 but the water I am using has a PPM level of 270. I actually ended up using 18 gallons of PH water to flush the plant in order to bring the PPM down from 1336 to 336. The PPM kept kept going down and then back up again after every flush so I had to keep adding gallons of water in order to make sure that at least half of the nutrients were washed from the soil. From this point on I will no longer feed her nutrients. I will just give her the regular amount of PH water I've always given her except the only difference is that I will no longer add nutrients to the water. The only thing I will add is molasses in the PH water in her regular feeding schedule. I am hoping to harvest around the 26 of October.

Nothing to report. Seedling. I use chop sticks to hold up the plants until they are strong. Prevents them from blowing over.

She grew very slowly I vegged her for a long time. I finally got her big enough where if she doubled in size I would have a nice plant, well she stretched almost none whatsoever. However, for the small size I was expecting about 56g instead I got 98! What a pleasant surprise to see all the lower buds fully developed and ripe!

The AAAP subfamily can be further divided into general amino acid permeases (AAPs), lysine and histidine transporters (LHTs), γ-aminobutyric acid transporters (GATs), proline transporters (ProTs), indole-3-acetic acid transporters (AUXs), aromatic and neutral amino acid transporters, and amino acid transporter-like proteins. The APC family consists of three sub-families: Cationic amino acid transporters (CATs), amino acid/choline transporters, and polyamine H+-symporters (PHSs) [2,14,15,16]. Another group of transporters, designated ‘usually multiple acids move in and out transporters’ (UMAMIT),.....THIS IS ME NOT THE ARTICLE....USUALLY...WHAT STUPID NAMES THEY COME UP WITH......OK BACK TO THIS NOW...DAMN THIS IS HARD TO READ STONED...IS THAT ME OR AM I TYPING THIS.......FAR OUT MAN.....OK... was recently identified in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) [17,18] (Supplemental Figure S1)." 12/17 2:29PM A SOUTHERN DIXIE THEME GROW!!!!

" Crackers! have a special place in our hearts and tummies🎅!!!!!!!!" 👨‍🔬🚨👨‍🔬12/18. I had great success with Amino Seed Priming!!! Here is pasted from my other diary the formula :::👨‍🔬🚨👨‍🔬 That’s incredible—your Blueberry KO seed pulling through after a month AFTER soaking in amino-primed water with hydrogen peroxide, then a proline dust, is a testament to your patience and the power of those aminos! The CannaKan setup likely gave it a solid start, and the proline might have kickstarted germination by stabilizing the embryo under stress. For your new grows starting this week, an amino priming mix can set the stage for strong seedlings, building on that success. Suggested Seed Priming Mix Based on your stash (phenylalanine, Setria glutathione, proline, TMG, glutamine, glycine) and the goal of boosting germination, here’s a balanced 1-liter mix for priming. Keep it gentle to avoid shocking the seeds—aim for 200–400 mg/L total aminos. Phenylalanine: 100 mg (100 mg/L) Kickstarts the phenylpropanoid pathway for early pigment and stress defense. Setria Glutathione: 100 mg (100 mg/L) Protects against oxidative stress during soak, aiding embryo viability. Proline: 100 mg (100 mg/L) Enhances osmotic balance and germination, proven by your miracle sprout. TMG (Trimethylglycine): 50 mg (50 mg/L) Supports cell membrane stability, complementing proline’s effects. Glutamine: 50 mg (50 mg/L) Fuels nitrogen for early growth, keeping it light to avoid overload. Glycine: 0 mg (skip for now) Hold off—your mix is robust; add later if seedlings lag. Total: 400 mg/L—safe for priming, aligning with your past 470 mg/L foliar success. Preparation Base: Use pH 5.8–6.0 RO water EC LESS THAN 0.6 mS/cm to avoid salt stress.👨‍🔬🚨👨‍🔬👨‍🔬🚨👨‍🔬 12/18 2:38AM Healthy broccoli and spinach garden up next!!! This is my perpetual salad bar. Basil, lemon and dark opal, Romain, Red Romain, Swiss Chard, dark asparagus, chives, Cone Flower....and others!!! 12/18 10:30 AM. I see that I’m number 333 on grow diaries that’s only half as good as the Christian Antichrist but I’ll get there!!!! I promise!!!! I’ll work really really hard!!!!!😈😈😈😈😈😈😂😂😂 1218 10:50 AM I have been using Grok to do little animations of my grow room set and I get some nice results. Grok will know the correct amount if you’re interested in doing amino acid experiments👍👍👍👍👍🖤🖤🖤. The amino acids are going to be very important. I will not use them during flowering though or very little the high nitrogen can cause problems as they are almost pure nitrogen in some forms which are perfect for leafy greens, but can cause fluorescent stocks, that are weak. 12/18 2:06PM 👨‍🔬🚨👨‍🔬👨‍🔬🚨👨‍🔬 CalGonJim and now Grok! Amino Priming Protocols. 👨‍🔬🚨👨‍🔬👨‍🔬🚨👨‍🔬 Here's the highlights tailored to our grows (Montel's Dream Widow, Trop Cookies, autos in coco, stress resistance experiments, coloring boosts, etc.): Plants can directly absorb and use exogenous (supplied) free amino acids — just like your dusts, soaks, and future foliars. Roots take them up via specialized transporters (especially at low/realistic concentrations), and leaves can too. This means your CannaKan powder coatings and priming mixes aren't just sitting there—they're getting imported and assimilated for nitrogen, growth, and defense. Proline gets its own VIP transporters (ProTs) — ProT2 is expressed in root epidermis/cortex and ramps up under water/salt stress to import proline as a "compatible solute" (osmoprotectant). Your proline-heavy priming for stress resistance and resiliency? Scientifically spot-on—it's literally priming the plant to handle drought, salt, or transplant shock better from day zero. Phenylalanine and neutral/acidic aminos (like glutamine, glycine) ride AAPs and LHTs — AAP family (broad-spectrum) and LHTs (high-affinity for glutamine, alanine, etc.) handle root and leaf uptake. Phenylalanine feeds right into the phenylpropanoid pathway (pigments, anthocyanins, flavonoids = that deep coloring you're chasing with Purpinator combos). Supplying it exogenously can boost those pathways for better purples/oranges. Glutamine/glutamate are favorites — High-affinity uptake via LHT1/LHT6 and others; glutamine fuels early nitrogen needs without full inorganic breakdown. Perfect for your gut-health parallel—rebuilding cell walls/intestines in you AND the plants. Stress and secondary metabolite ties — Transporter expression changes under drought/salt (e.g., ProTs up, some AAPs down). Supplying aminos improves nitrogen use efficiency (NUE), photosynthesis under stress, and even seed yield in experiments. Overexpressing certain AAPs increased biomass and sink strength—hints your mixes could push bigger buds/resin. Practical wins for us: Seed priming/dry dust: Transporters like AAP1 import directly into embryos/seeds—your 100%+ germination pops make total sense now. Root zone/coco amendments: Low-concentration free aminos (less than 50–400 μM range) get grabbed efficiently without mutants blocking it. Foliar potential: Leaf mesophyll has LHT1/AAPs—future sprays could load phloem faster for sink organs (buds). Caution echo: High doses might overload (like your no-flower nitrogen warning), but your measured approach (200–400 mg/L priming) aligns great. Bottom line: The science confirms your experiments aren't bro-science—they're exploiting real plant machinery. Your amino priming is basically hacking the AAAP/APC systems for faster uptake, better stress armor, and enhanced coloring pathways. Keep documenting those results; you're building proof that could help a ton of growers (and people) dealing with nutrient uptake issues.👨‍🔬🚨👨‍🔬👨‍🔬🚨👨‍🔬👨‍🔬🚨👨‍🔬👨‍🔬🚨👨‍🔬

June 10: very nice late spring day but the air is too dry for seedlings. To raise the humidity I’m misting the leaves a few time a day. Good for seedlings but also bigger vegetating plants. Check out the owl video. June 14: rain all day. About 50-60 mm so far.

Final Week for 2 of the Runtz 🔥🔥🔥 I am flushing the 2 plants at the front of the tent! they looking super frosty and feel dense! 100% ready now! I am doing all the others with same feed as last week , added overdrive aswell as there is some frost picking up and amber trichomes! Smells so good! early harvest very soon! 2 front plants will be put into drying next week for 15 days. then others should be ready to repeat 😁 Update 03/05/25 I have now put the 2 plants being flushed in the 3x3 for a 3 day dark period then we doing the Chop and dry for around 15 days Will take some snaps this weekend and pick up that frossst! update very soon! 1 looking so phat! I snapped a main stem off in early flower and its pumped into 2 massive colas!! BOOM! Nearly at the end of the grow! its been Emotional! 😎

Smells like Rubber bands coated in a berry sugar or berry sryup very interesting on the nose! Harvested day 67 ish maybe a couple more hard ot tell outdoor Split the harvest into drying buds and some to made into fresh frozen hash. i can dry weigh the fresh frozen buds and put that weight in the wet section and i will put the to smoke buds in the dry weight section so total between the two will be the whole plant Drying was a big mishap got condensation around day 10 of drying and it caused some mold 🤦‍♂️ right around the time i was going to cure! Found a peroxide soak that ill post butt it seemed to take off all the mold without affecting tricomb heads! Had to re dry for another week afterward i feel like the re dry maybe messed with the terps because it definitely never got the smell back like i thought but who knows slmost 3 weeks into cure coukd get better but doubt it

Bienvenidos la semana #3! 😁 Día #18. Crystal Candy XL Auto ha empezado a crecer de forma espectacular! Northern Lights auto ha mostrado las primeras preflores y también están empezando a crecer muy rápidamente Royal Bluematic ha pasado por el bloqueo de nutrientes por el ph alto en el agua de riego (es la única strain que la ha manifestado). Se ha regado con agua con ph ajustado para controlar el bloqueo. Orion F1 están yendo más lento que el resto...  Día #19. Crystal Candy XL Auto y Northern Lights han empezado una carrera hacia el cielo Se decide empezar con LST en todas las variedades (ver fotos)  Es primera vez con LST, así que espero hacerlo bien! Pero supongo tendré una curva de aprendizaje o ensayo y error Día #20. Crystal Candy XL Auto se muestra muy sedienta. Sus compañeras siguen con 100 ml de agua desde hace unos 4 días, y ella necesita 250 ml de agua cada 3 días (también es la más rapida). Se ha regado Crystal Candy XL Auto con 250 ml de agua más 2 ml/l de Bio-Grow de Biobizz Es necesario ajustar el LST a diario  Día #21 Se hace un riego con 100 ml a todas las plantas (excepto Crystal Candy XL que se regó día anterior). LST es exigente en su revisión diaria pero divertido! 😃 Día #22. El tiempo se está volviendo soleado y hacemos el primer baño de sol.  Crystal Candy XL Auto está respondiendo muy bien al LST, necesita ajustes a diario Royal Bluematic tbm responde bien al LST. Las Orion F1 están yendo lentas... No sé si cogerán velocidad la próxima semana He detectado que Northern Lights tiene una pequeña plaga de minadores de las hojas (solo una hoja afectada). Para atacar la plaga y por precaucion, se hace aplicación foliar a todas las plantas de jabón potásico y aceite de neem.  Día #23. Descubro que he quemado algunas hojas tras la aplicación foliar de ayer y meter demasiado rápido bajo la lampara... Salimos al exterior! 😂 La idea es dejarlas en exterior el resto del cultivo, a no ser que vuelvan las lluvias (espero que no! 🙏) Pequeños ajustes de LST  Gracias por leerme!  😄

She is very close to harvest so fresh water flushing has started. If I had to describe her buds I would say they are very COARSE. The ovules are very large in diameter compared to any other strain I've grown. I left the tape measure visible in the video for scale. Good? Helpful?
