So tomorrow will be day 1 of week 6. I have been out of town and not able to care for the girls like I usually do. So my PPM went a little higher than I usually have it. As you can see I have some nute burn going on. I dropped it down now and hopefully it should be smooth sailing from here. Girls are putting on some weight but really don't think I'll pull more then 3 oz per plant. All the buds are rock hard but a bit small. I do think that the quality is going to be above average. They are starting to pack on the crystals and crazy sticky. The smell at this stage is extremely strong. I had to hook my charcoal filter. My entire house was ranked when I came home from my trip. All in all these girls have been pretty easy to grow with the exception of one of the banner phenotypes. She really doesn't seem to like the higher PPM levels. But I have 1 Reservoir feeding all of them so she just has to make do LOL.

Still looking smaller than usual but I think it could be down to the genetics I’m not sure, I saw a little brownish/orange burn spot on the tips of Grapey Walter #2, it dosent look like nute burn but not to sure it’s an issue at the moment. Did the first bit of LST of these girls tonight and hopefully they will respond well and start bushing out letting the dident branches catch up.

Second week of rinsing. The trichomes have finished developing. And I like the appearance of the plant. I place the plant in the dark for around 5 days. Period during which there will be no watering to allow the soil to dry and be able to Cut. See you in a few days!

All 3 plants are adapting very well to LST, the shape its growing into have been allowing the light to reach further into the lower growth nodes and branches. I like to start bending the branches close to the main stem as early as week 3 of VEG. Now these 3 Northern Lights Auto seeds are from Sun West Genetics, they were all germinated, planted, trained, fed the same way they have been on the same controlled environment since day 1, the 3 are totally different, I know each plant is unique in its own way, but I find strange that 1 plant is taller and stronger than the other 2, the smaller one is growing weak leaves with signs of mutation, all 3 plants show signs of Magnesium deficiency, these 3 plants are sharing a grow tent with a Haze Auto from Seedsman, all 4 plants are under the same diet, the Haze have no signs of deficiencies or mutations, I guess that shows what good genetics look like. For the Magnesium deficiency I have mixed my own Epson salts into water and applied as a foliar spray, internet said the spray should be used every other week, wait 2 weeks to see results. Signs of Nutes burn, I decided to stop feeding for this coming week. The 3 NL leaves are looking unhappy, kind of clawing under, they look lifeless, I have ruled off a few potential problems such as: Wind Burn Under Watering Water PH Light Burn, just moved the QB higher to 17 inches from the highest canopy today. If any of you fellow growers have advice for the leaves, please let me know. Stay Lit folks 👩‍🌾🏻

This week she has been bulking those nuggets peppered all over, I am hoping she can be healthy enough to swell those Calyxes, because she was stressed few times during her growth and the last one is the change from hps to leds... She had to adapt to those intense leds... Found spider mites on one plants next to her but they are not interested in her, still found few on her and did a careful inspection/eradication but only 4 were found... I think she stink too much for them lol that gassy fuel from the swamp is not on their list! Only water this week she was given. I am trying not to rub those sugar leaves for a sniff too often!🙄😜 It seems the less I touched them the better they are😁, so I use a wooden stick now when I need to move leaves or buds. She is becoming one of my favorite plant, she is fussy yes but very special smell and look, I am so pleased I have made cuttings this time in case and if her high is as good as her smell she will be the first mother plant I will try to keep!

Esa familia , estamos otra vez y aquí actualizo la quinta semana de floración de las BlueBerry Cheese del banco de semillas ZambezaSeeds. Estas tienen buen color y el proceso de floración es el correcto su progreso es increíble. Ahora empezaré a aplicar el ExplotaCogollos de Agrobeta que es Brutal como compacta las flores , palabra. Que ganas ya de acabar estos proyectos y empezar con cosas serias. Os adelanto que lo próximo que que viene son Gelato y Lava Cake, y después Titán F1. Agrobeta: https://www.agrobeta.com/agrobetatiendaonline/36-abonos-canamo Mars hydro: Code discount: EL420 https://www.mars-hydro.com/ Las maximas de temperatura no superan los 26 grados y las mínimas no bajan 20, así que no me puedo quejar. Los niveles de humedad también son los correctos van entre 50%/65% de humedad relativa. Por supuesto el Ph lo estamos dejando alrededor de 6. Hasta aquí es todo, buenos humos 💨💨💨.

✋Wk10: Playing the guessing game and learning is doing. 👉I started the week knowing I needed to do more of a full low EC rinse. I have been noticing purple stems around both plants spreading. As the week started the stems also started spreading on to some of the veins. The upper leaves started looking lighter green colored and by mid-week some yellowing spots and some very small brown spots on some of the upper leaves of the 3 gallon. The one gallon was getting more burned leaf tips. Until the yellowing splotches and small brown specks I was suspecting low Magnesium. I was compensating by adding a little extra cali-magic to the low ec solution I use to adjust the ec of the solution I fertigate with. But as the yellowing spread I knew I was wrong about something, so a little more searching and I may have nitrogen toxicity AND Phosphorus deficiency. The upper leaves on the 3 gallon plant were also showing a bit of ‘clawing’ which was pointing at the Phosphorus shortfall. So I may be wrong, but Ill only know by doing. So I did a large low EC rinse that was pH’d with the regular dosage of liquid Koolbloom, on both plants at the end of the week. I’ll continue to fertigate with a lower EC solution that will have the Koolbloom mixed at full strength. I may discard the current solution batches and remix fresh with less of the Flora Micro, more of the Flora Bloom and Liquid Koolbloom. It may all stem from not doing low EC fertigations as a matter of routine. Perhaps the Nitrogen was building up because there wasn’t a regular higher volume rinse. The Low EC rinse dropped the EC of the run-off right away. I know the common practice is to have routine low EC rinses, but I wasn’t having high EC run-off and it was stable, so I was trying to keep the nutrient level in the media at optimum levels. Doing one plant at a time is a very slow way to learn. I do read lots of science related gardening articles as well as scientifically inclined cannabis articles. I don’t look at too many forums because most of these people must be high ;) 👉I finally got around to clearing out some of the lower leaves from the 3 gallon plant and removing some of the leaves and shaded buds sites under the dome. Its still a thick tangled jungle. But more manageable. Doing tucking to give cola sights light. The buds are bulking up. The first signs of frost have appeared as well. Hopefully I can level out the nutritional needs and the buds will be fine. The trunk of the 3 gallon has gotten very thick. Its a work of natural engineering to support the plant. The branches are also very stout and strong. 👉The 1 gallon is making some potentially nice colas. Each branch is a long cola covered with buds. Ive added a little support to some of the branches, even though the branches dont need the support yet. The aroma is creamy caramel. Its almost bizarre to me. The plant has the light skunkyness that is typical of cannabis in flower, but that aroma is the undertone of the dominant smell, which is creamy caramel. Such a strange and wonderful combination of smells is almost as intoxication as the gorilla glue I grew last spring. The trichomes are mostly clear with cloudy ones making a showing.

As I am am writing this I have officially cut down my second grow🤘🤠 I’m really proud of this grow as I managed to get a completely even canopy without any topping! Low stress training and a bit of suppercropping is all you need:) Been flushing for the last week and a half now. Did a heavy flush during week 8 so, she’s definitely eating the nutrients left in her leaves now. She actually has a bit of purple sugar leaves towards the tops which was nice to see:) however, I have seen some really purple phenos of this strain before. I have cut the plant as a whole and will aim for a 10-14 day drying time, room temperature at 60% humidity. Really excited to smoke this girl! Her terps are really fruity and exotic. Not to mentions the buds are very frosty and super dense :o Will report back with a dry weight in the next couple weeks:)

Week 10 Flower After 4 whole weeks of flush this girl has finally met the scissors ✂️ It took her quite some time to fade out, but after cutting down the most faded half of the plant that was closest to the light on Day 65, and then the rest on Day 70 it was long enough. I'm very impressed with how fat and chunky this girl has become. I wasn't expecting quite this size from first look at her thinner stems and branchy structure earlier in flower, but her buds have swelled up nonetheless and she's stacked well. I always cut my girls down around half an hour (or a bit more) before the lights are due to turn on. This prevents her from starting any chlorophyll production in order to maintain the best flavour and burn. Only a few fans were taken off before being left to hang dry as she's absolutely covered in trichomes! Don't throw away your sugar trim (leaves with trichomes) as this can later be used for dry sift, which can then be pressed for some dank rosin. Harvest update coming soon! Thanks for following and happy growing! 🐺

A few plants are a few days behind the others from germination speed but overall I'm really happy with outcome so far for my first grow. Any tips for a first time grower outdoors? also considering putting a few of the plants indoors if I can find room for my setup in the upcoming week.

I'm really happy with the gas tax x obama runtz plant is doing. It started out so small, I wasn't sure if it was gonna make it. But lately it's taken off. The leaves are a lot bigger and the colors are so vibrant. I can tell it's happy and healthy now. Well, it's Christmas again. This year feels a little different, though. Maybe it's the snow blanketing everything, or the way the tree lights up the whole living room. Either way, it's cozy and warm, even when it's freezing outside. I'm really looking forward to seeing what Santa brings. I hope I get that new video game I've been wanting. But most of all, I can't wait to spend time with my family. We always have so much fun This past week was a good one for the plants. They started the first week of their stretch, and they've already grown a decent amount. I can really see them filling out. It's cool to watch them grow so fast. I can't wait to see how big they get by the end I always get a little worried at this stage, like they're not gonna get as big as I want them to. But then I remember how they always end up surprising me. By the end, they're always perfect.

Seeing burned tips makes me feed it differently, 2 days with fulls set of nutrients, 2 days with Cannazym only. I pruned them a bit more, not sure if it was a good idea but those little branches didn't develop a lot during this time. On day 4 of the week, after HSO's comment on a weekly report, I've measured runoff and it was insane! 3k-5k ppm Flushed them all so that runoff was around 800 ppm, and watered them with Cannazym only (PH around 6.1, EC 440 ppm). Also moved them around a bit Most likely the reason for conductivity going so high was that I removed the pots from platforms at some point and old runoff was probably soaking in.

Busy times as i prepare for outdoor growing this summer, but these autos are progressing nicely, the uploaded photos document week 5 (+1day) of growth, forgot to group the Purple Punch Autos together for a group photo 😖, heavy defoliation of fan leaves were done as well as some more LST.
