Feb 19th, - week 9 of flower sees a lot of subtle changes going on. The smell at the door is one, and it’s becoming a very dense and dark odour. Fruit-like up close. - Molasses doubled as root boosters get removed and Calimg has only 1 feed left, tonight. - Mar 1 is the tentative flush, first day of week 11 in flower. Those will be a long couple of weeks, feeding h20 & sugar only - noticing the stems of Fan leaves are turning Red/Crimson on L plant. A few are in the R as well. ** question asked about Red Stems ** 23rd - noticing a definite increase in the Trichomes of the Buds, under the UVB (pics tonight). There are simply more now and it’s kinda obvious when side by side. Lite spill from uvb is falling on the left plant as well, but not from 14” - feed tonite will include a bit of CaliMag once again moving forward and a lingering taste of Medi-One. - Trichomes were checked today. As happy as I was to see a few Amber ones. They were very wide-spread with most of the others still 50/50 clear and cloudy. - Based on todays Trichome check; hoping to flush ~ Mar 7 now. That will be the end of 11 complete weeks of Flower. FYI: Breeders expectation "11-12” weeks. Happy to see it linger a bit, diet, humidity and lighting changes have been incremental throughout. How quickly the next changes happen ie: clear to cloudy etc., I have no idea. Would love to see ~ 10% Amber, just enough to say it’s Very ripe. ( Not in any way thinking of couch-lock lol ) - literature & product labels on Humic Acid recommend usage throughout Veg & Flower... just Not the last 3 weeks. That rules this batch out... So the next batch(s) get introduced. - Macro shots tonight of the Buds under the UVB... cannot wait. ** found 1 bud on the R plant, that had quite a bit of Amber showing. Nowhere to be seen in the L plant, but it looks like a high concentration of Cloudy Trichomes on the L regardless. One more serious search tonight of the R plant and it may just be time for a rinse. Surprised to see so many Ambers, alone on this one bud. Pics uploaded ! re: 24th a.m. Feb24th, - when the lights came on this evening, I did another thorough check on both plants and there were more Amber trichomes found. Ready or not, both plants were Thoroughly flushed. - Flush aid used in the process. - 10 Litres of Water was mixed with Molasses / Rezin as the first liquids poured into the plants, after the Flush... - when it came right down to it, the sudden appearance and then rapid spreading of the Amber Trichomes made it an easy call, to flush both plants. Thoughts on the amount of white hairs left... they have a couple weeks to get their shit together... if I can get a couple weeks of flushing-in, that’s a definite bonus. 25th - humidity spike in the Tent. doors are cracked and a floor fan has been added for extra air flow. Exhaust fan increased... 26th, no liquid to remove from the plants btm Trays, but still showing a high humidity. R.H. coming down slowly, aimed the fans at the fabric pots... doors cracked etc. * why mess around, hooked up the dehumidifier... R.H. dropping, end of issue

This one's going faster then thought, it's an autoflower on 12/12 from seed, so the yield isnt expected to be really high. The seed on 18 hours schedule would finish in around 6,5-7 weeks I've heard that it's going to be the same on a 12/12 schedule 😀 ofcourse that will lower yield too. But.. for buds in the fourth week since the first signs of flowering hairs all looks good, feeding is on the max with an EC of 2.38 ! Light is 100w chinese cob on 220v on the sides 2x 50W - 12V, both powered at around 35 watts making 170 watts together ( to compensate the short time schedule of 12/12) I'm kinda new to autoflowers, I heard about small yield, I'm aiming towards 30g/plant dry bud, I'll be happy with a wet weight of 200grams for the whole plant.

It is getting real bushy in there and i have some thirsty plants. Tent is getting pretty packed and the stretch is on. I might have to water almost everyday, I suspect them to be on the edge of rootbound. Should have went with 14 liter pots or might even 18. Smell is amazing and they are starting to get sticky when i pick fan leaves. Defoliation is coming at the end of next week tho. But it is really bushy i have been picking tons of leaves so far. Tempted to strip them sooner than 21 days into flower but we will see.

Training methods include the several weeks I missed. As of this week no training. Morning Glory- 35.5” Tall Mexican Haze (in-ground)-40” Tall Mexican Haze- 33” Tall Love Drunk- 25” Tall Ackbar OG- 26.5” Tall Crazy Glue- 38” Tall The nutrients used are from a once a week ordeal. Normally it’s just tap water. I still need to update the info on the other two Love Drunks as well as the Fruity Pebbles.

Producing steadily, slight smell. This pheno is strong and fast growing. Not as susceptible to light burn as the sister pheno. Also more productive, and managed to top itself as a seedling without any help. Will keep this strain forever. I absolutely love it! Happy growing 💚🌱

They're coming along really quickly they're on week 2, the custom strain I have in here I crossed the sherb tree from the plug with EL chapo and this plant looks amazing and smells like cherry refreshers platinum Z is also looking very nice with a lovely sweet watermelon with a hint of diesel and they really do stink even though they are weak 2 getting excited already haha, they all look very good so far,, I did have 25 but a few of them looked quite sick and a few abnormalities and they really didn't like the feed I was given them so the one's got eliminated and I am now left with 15 of the ones I like, this small room is just for my testers before putting them in main room, the LED that is running is lumatek zeus 600 pro, this is my first try with LEDs I've always been HPS but I'm definitely turning my head towards them as these ones are shooting up and look very healthy, once this run is done if I feel that it comes out better with LED I will swap out all 6 lights in the main room and replace them with 4 LEDs, I have some sherb tree x meringue from Dutch passion, running concurrent I will try and get another diary going with them they are awesome. Thanks 😊

Bubble Kush. This week, I FIM'ED the plant on 18.8.25. However, the new growth doesn't seem to show any more tops. I'm not sure what I've done there. but regardless, I will have to wait and see. Other than that, everything is fine, and I'm happy with the progress this week. The plant is still a nice, healthy green colour, and after I FIM'ED the plant, there was quite a lot of new growth. 20.8.25: I watered with 2L of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.0 with; 💜 2ml Trace PH: 6.0 PPM: 340 The soil is still drying out due to fungus gnats appearing. I am getting some sticky traps, just waiting for tgem to arrive. There are so many, and it's definitely come from the soil. I am never using this again. Thanks for checking in this week and hanging out in the comments 😊💚✌️🍃🙏

These ladies are doing so great! Stretching up creating flowers along the way! I may need to trim the lower branches in time in order to not waste necessary energy being a solo but I’m feeling when I run Anesia autos in bigger pots in 6 weeks they’ll be no issues!

Hallo to You all my familly and usual visitors. Thank you for stopping by and all the likes and comments....You make my day! I gave the Blue Cheese a trim on 5th december and gave her four days of darkness, the chop was performed on december 9th I took a lot of photographs and videos commemorating these events for you to enjoy :) I think she came out quite decent especially considering that she had some monster/deformed leaves till the 4th week of veg. also looking back I should have moved her to the bigger place in that time...she would be far more symmetrical ;) It was a joy to work with Mars Hydro and their equipment in this grow. A big thanks to the Mars Hydro team for this opportunity, you truly provide first class grow kits and lamps. That's all i have for you till the drying & curing process is over I will update then. I want to thank you all for accompanying me in this journey, all the likes and comments...You growmies make me feel here at GD at home thank you 🙌👊😇

Topped her to third node to prepare her for manifolding. Cut off the tip as well as the branches on the second node. Had to move the camera up again since she's growing so fast 😁

Pretty happy with the grow and the harvest, the drying went well also! Each grow highlights changes for the next and this has been no different! I'll be making more training adjustments in the next runs to try and refine the vertical scrog and get to the point where it's a wall 1 bud thick! I know it will get there in the end it's just like relearning how to do a horizontal scrog! I just need to predict the way the plant will respond when the light is from the sides! Bravery and brutality during pruning I think is the key! 😂✌️💚

So this was a simple going grow!!! It’s strange how the hot so big under the light! I had one blue cheese under the same light and tent and it was way smaller!! Anyway 1 of these has come out perfect very happy the other two I’m not to sure the hairs were still pointing up but I really don’t have the time to have them going another week there already over the time they was supposed to be done but yeah I’d say out of 10 I’d rate this blue cheese growing experience a 6 out of 10 hopefully this improves when it’s dry!!!

Day 29 - Let's talk about sex! ♀️♂️ So me, myself, and my OCD tendencies have had a busy couple of days obsessively stalking the preflower growth sites of my Blazin' Skywalker babies with a microscope. I have never had to sex plants before, so my natural curiosities took the wheel. I had so much fun being a complete and total dork that I decided to make a video for anyone else who might also be learning how to differentiate male from female plants. As I mention in the video, these are the earliest signs of my preflowers, so they may not be completely formed yet, but you can at the very least appreciate the difference in structure of the male and female parts and maybe some of you more experienced growers can chime in with your 2 cents? Do you think my guesses are correct? I hope so! 😜 Day 30 - Transplanted prospective female #2 into a 3 gallon rain science grow bag. Day 31 - Gave my 2 females a good watering with 6.5 pH water. 💦💦💦 Day 35 - watered the males with 6.5 pH water Gave the females a taste of some Green Buzz products mixed in their water. I took 1 gallon of water and added 4ml of Organic Grow Liquid, 4ml of Humeric Acid Plus and 4ml of More Roots. I then split that between the two plants, plus an additional liter of regular pH water until I had about 10/15% runoff.

Heading into week 3 of vege, things still seem normal. Growth rate is starting to increase. Roots have developed nicely and the plant wasn't too fussed from the transplant last week. I've increased the nutrients resulting in a PPM of about 850, looking forward to seeing how the girls respond to that. Once the plants have a little more vertical development I will try some low stress training. I'm Enjoying the learning process - I took the red pill and the rabbit hole sure is deep. Appreciate any comments or advice. Cheers Update: Started some LST!!
