This was another hot, hot week with a big rainstorm. Take a look at the measuring cup, it is full of rainwater. Gorilla Cookies continues to smell and is very sticky. It is a tall and lanky plant but look at the heavy buds weighing down the stems. It should be ready to take down in a couple of weeks. Half way through this grow, I had to stop using Miracle Grow and change my grow plan. I decide to use Advance Nutrients Jungle Juice for the rest of the grow. Jungle Juice’s selling point is that it is the only nutrient that I should need during the entire grow. One just need to make the solution stronger as the plant matures. The directions say to “stir vigorously” and that is true. It is very clumpy and I had to stir and shake the bottle a lot. As your plant is in veg and growing larger, directions say to up your Jungle Juice to 4 ml per liter. If my calculations are correct, I am using approx. 5 tablespoons per 5 gallon bucket. 1 gal is 3.78 liters 5 gallons=18.92 liters 4ml jungle juice per liter x 18.92 liters= 75.7 ml which is = to 5.119 tablespoons per 5 gallon bucket of water As the end of the summer is quickly approaching, I have spent some time reflecting this week on all of the contests that I have entered and not won this summer. It can be a little frustrating because of all the time I have spent taking pictures and writing commentary. But, instead of it getting me down, I have to think about all of the positive take aways and I want to share them on this platform. I have read a lot of diaries and now know why I am just an apprentice. I have a lot to learn from all of you. There are some really good growers with a lot of experience and crazy grow techniques. So much knowledge is on this platform-it’s mind boggling. To be a great grower, you must be willing to be vulnerable and put yourself out there and try different suggestions and new techniques. I have made a few friend that I enjoy chatting with. I enjoy reading comments versus just seeing likes. My best friend on grow diaries is @Natrona and my neighbor as well. She has been growing longer than I have been so I routinely learn from her. This summer I learned to mix 1 cup of Perlite into my soil. I can see where my plants need the air flow. And, I now I only defoliate fan leaves that absolutely need to be gone. I let the fan leaves stay on until they fall off. I want my buds to pull all the nutrients they can out of the fan leaves. I also bought 2 new tools that @natrona suggested. The first was a water PH tester and the second was my Max-ee Magnifier which is informative and fun to use. As always, Let’s Chat it up AND Likes and comments are appreciated

We are entering the third week of growth for our FBA 2503 strain from 42Fast Buds, and everything is progressing beautifully. We've recently transplanted the plant into a 10-liter pot, giving it more room to thrive. Even though it's an autoflowering strain, we've decided to experiment with a 12/12 light cycle—12 hours of light during the day and 12 hours at night—to see how it responds. The daytime temperature peaks at 30°C, with an average range between 27°C and 28°C, while humidity is consistently maintained at 60% to 65%. The plant has reached a height of 14-20 cm and is already showing three sets of leaves. We're preparing to start low-stress training (LST) to help guide its growth. In addition, we've begun feeding our beauty with nutrients from Xpert Nutrients, and we’re really pleased with the results so far. The plant looks strong and vibrant, and we're excited to see how it develops over the coming weeks!

I had 8 seeds in a pill bottle that had been kicking around for a couple years. So I decided to see if any were good. I picked one good looking seed and sprouted it in April. As it grew I noticed that it looked like it wanted to start flowering early on. Being a new grower I didn’t even think it was an Auto. So I cut off the buds and tried to get it to veg. It stopped growing for awhile but didn’t die. So I started two more of the viable seeds I had. Once they were transplanted to one gallon pots I moved them to my greenhouse. The second one looked like it wanted to flower early also. I transferred the three to 5 gallon pots. It was then I realized I had auto unknown seeds. Because I didn’t know the names I decided to call them COVID unknown #1, #2, and #3. Or CU1,CU2,CU3. The first plant got really messed up but still produced 7 grams. The other two combined pulled in 2 ounces. Not to bad for 3 old unknown seeds!

01/01 happy new year start of a new week here. Top dressed with craft blend, pushin p, and ocean blend, and 2/1 mix of buildaflower and castings .and watered in rootwise goodies just 3 gallons also raised vpd to 1.2 and ppfd to 550-600 depending on the spot. 01/02 remembered to shift the hours down to 16/8 definitely gave em to much light for to long looked pissed before lights out. Also have been adjusting light height and power to get the ppfd I want and temp. Think I got it dialed in now. Just keep tucking for now 01/05 For some reason wat I logged the last few days is now gone from here... yesterday I watered in 17 gallons total 3.5 of that in the middle with supplemental stuff. I should have kept it at 14 gallons cus in slightly over saturated in the bottom but it should be fine. Did a pretty aggressive defoliation and tucking to open up canopy and under side of plants. 01/07 got 3.5 gallons plain water 3.5 gallons of balanced tea. Tucked pretty aggressive this morning. We flip tomorrow.

These ones are aight for the time being Aight so the other day I found another hermie in the very early stages. So I emptied the tent and sat in there in the pitch black for 15 minutes to let my eyes adjust looking for anywhere light could get in. Because I have 2 veg tents in the same room on 19 hr schedules it's impossible for me to have the room the tent is in be pitch black. There was no leaks in the fabric but the air vents at the bottom, even tho I only have 3 open a little bit, let in the slightest amount of light. I had to toss out a mandarin cookies R1V2, a bwiz x Rocberry and a gushers. I found a male flower on a Hawaiian snow x wc x g33 on a lower but instead of tossing it I removed all the lowers and am going to check daily to see if its aight or not. I ordered a ac infinity 4 inch fan, some light proof ducting and a intake carbon filter to be able to set up a intake and close the vents. Very little pollen may have dropped which could seed everything but I might have found it just in time we will see. I almost retired on the spot but I'll give the intake fan a shot as a last ditch effort. Otherwise I would have to remove the veg tents or have intake fans and no open vents for all tents.

Great stuff, all the seeds are up. One still has it's helmet on, but it'll grow out of it soon. The Carl #2 seed seems to be a mutant of some kind as it has way too many cotyledons. Gave smaller amounts of water while they were seeds, gonna slowly increase to normal now that they've all popped up. I'm gonna start with a very light feeding of bloom ferts to promote rooting, and then use no nutes for the first couple weeks. The plan for these plants will be to try and create as much lateral growth as possible while the weather gets nice outside, then I'll transfer one of the best phenos and one of the not as good phenos to 25gal pots and stick em in the sun. I'm gonna be trying to do pest control with a combination of predator insects and deterrent plants. The main goal of the outdoor grow is to test and develop my IPM skills while trying to grow the biggest plants possible. -2/6/2021 Been a solid week so far, the growth has been fairly vigorous as of last night; it would seem that the root mass finally reached an acceptable size. -2/7/2021 Watered with a bit of bloom nutes and some VeloKelp, shot a timelapse.

Sup everybody, I thought a lot and if got learn the time is now! I have 4 babys so I decided that two of them will be for my practice, one I won’t change a thing, and the last one I’m obligated to transplant (didn’t have pot :@). I follow the advice of putting more soil into my pots and that’s was great! I topped one as you can see, put some cinnamon powder to help heal (don’t have much sure, but read that somewhere). The other I did some LST, honestly this is kinda harder to me than topping because you must be very careful and kinda follow your instincts to bend the plant. The other one as said I didn’t changed a thing (gotta have at least one guaranteed hahahaha) The last and minor one I didn’t have pot so need to transplant very soon. That’s it, hope you like and honestly I’m satisfied until now, I thought I would screw it all just in the first week. That’s it, my newbie advice: go for it, just don’t go blind!

Ela segue crescendo bem após a cobertura, devo fazer alguma defolhação? Segue crescendo bem. 04.03 os galhos começaram a pegar força de crescimento, vou fazer umas amarras em breve, mas não sei se devo fazer desfolhação, se alguém puder ajudar nos comentários? Obrigado

experiment explanation see week1 No1 Gelato auto did well this week...nice stretch...exactly what No2 and No3 (living soil) dont...i think they have not enough phosphorus for stretching...a lot of work with living soil and compost tea etc...and less reward... No1 one so far is the best...still plagron and aptus using plagron Sugar royal 1 ml/l Power buds 1 ml/l alga grow 4 ml/l aptus All purpose 1 ml/l Regulator 3 drops/l Calmag 1 ml/l

Deep watering on Sundays (buildaflower compost tea) Moist watering on Wednesdays ( vitamin c water & jay plantspeaker ) Cut down 3 hermies from light leak 2 charmz 1 Apple fritter

hey guys so my welsh brother sent me some daffodil seeds called FTB1 from the Fast Buds company, and if i'm honest with you i'm so happy to be growing next year's autos, always been a dream of mine to grow the unreleased genetics, let's see if they sprout, i'm a bit nervous because they came unwrapped in the mail you know ... let's see. alright so first thing that happened is my propagator broke so i had to fix it up best i could with some cling film then threw it in the bathroom in the sink basically lol, day one many of the non test gens cracked and were growing, and fbt1 didnt yet, and i was like oh well, it was a long shot, it came loose in the mail, and it breaks my heart. Day 2 it had cracked and day 3 it had shot through the cube, check out the cookies week you can see the root sticking out from the bottom already, in the end it's definitely some strong gens and i cant wait to see it grow !

Plants are chilling, added in some bokashi and dry amendments, not expecting much more from this plant, just needs to finish growing and we can be done.

Hi everybody Hope everyone is well. Another week gone in the Flowering process and wow I loving her man she's gone very big. She looks amazing and is building up some nice buds all over. A lot off Trichomes building up nicely. And great Aroma in the morning. Did more LST every day to make enough spacing in between buds for better air circulation. She s gone size 45cm to 45 cm I diameter. Decided to give her a rest on nutrition since my last update this week because she showed very early signs off Over feeding. She is been on 6PH water for the last 7/8 days and she is responding happily, can't see the over feeding to have caused any major damage. Just thinking I got her on time.😉 Will probably resume giving her nutrition at some point this week when she is left with 5% moisture in soil day or two from today. Next feed I think I will go to Bloom higher PK Nutritions for 2 weeks and see how she's going to do. My Goal is to try on concentrating her making massive buds. PK 13/14 for 14 to 20 days depending on plant response. This is what I think off giving her. BioGrow- 0.5ml per Litre BioBloom -1.5ml per Litre water Canna- PK13/14 1ml per Litre water Cannazym-1ml per Litre water Top max- 1ml per Litre water If you have any suggestions on my feeding plan or seeing something missing or wrong please feel free to comment or thx me in PM. Thanks to everyone here and this great community and good luck with your grows. Happy Growing

Well some learning curves on this one. My first auto, put in too small of a pot. So I had a bonsai plant. Organic fertilizer and coast of main platinum make this plant a breeze. The Humboldt seed company product is top notch. Super resistant when growing in 94°-100° while Budding for a few weeks. Managed to get bud rot in one place but removed and peroxided the area. I hope I have another seed because I would grow this strain again. Super resistant to humidity of New England.

Sweet Bourbon Kush auto is doing great. She had a big growth spurt this last week. She is starting to develop her colas, and start stacking. I did lollipop her some and defoliated some of the bushier parts of the canopy. She is ready for another week of growing.
