After switching the light schedule, our supposed "autoflowers" have finaly started to show signs of actually flowering. Week 9, what a trip. This grow is full of surprises and new lessons for me: the potting mix i have used for this grow is apparently purely peat (black and white peat moss) with perlite mixed in. After digging into some more information about all kinds of soils i found out that i was apparently growing "hydroponically" because this is apparently a soilless mix. The world is full of surprises 😅 This does explain a lot of the stuff that i've been trying to deal with in the last few weeks: first and foremost my plants were looking like they were developing a range of different nutrient deficiencies. I still find it hard to tell which ones, but symptoms ranged from decoloration and deformation of the lower leafs up to small burnt tips on the developing flowers, new growth being brittle and signs that looked like underwatering. I'm convinced that this has a lot to do with the fact tht this is a soilless medium with 0 pre-supplied nutrients (the light mix does supply nutrients for a week or two, but no more). I've been going really slow on the feeding because in previous runs i tended to overfeed and had issues with that, so therefore only used about a quarter to half of the recommended dosages. So, at this point i've completely switched up my feeding: i bought 2 new bottles of hydroponic fertilizers (GHE Bloom and GHE Micro) and i'm using those in addition to a little bit of plagron terra grow - to make sure the plant also gets its fair share of nitrogen. After 3 days of watering with this stuff (both at 2ml/L) the plants are almost literally screaming "THANK YOU!" and seem to be really benefitting from this new insight and change of strategies.

Está semana el viernes 4 echamos te de compost aireado que lo tuvimos 24h cocinando y el sábado 5 defoliación agresiva de satélites y ramas que no le daban la luz

Good morning Growmies 💪 I started introducing Canna Pk 13/14 & AN Bud Factor X @ the beginning of the week, and it's already showing it's effects 💪 These lady's are getting fat, by the looks of it these 2 are gonna yield bigtime. Also the 👃 on these is something pleasant, it kind of reminds me of Tangie 🍊. Well i'm done again Growmies 👊 Rock on🌱

I could tell within a week of flower that she would probably be a monster. She was always given priority for space and light. When I realized that she was covering 7sqft I realized that she didn’t have enough light and I moved 3 more LED’s to her so as to not be light limited for harvest. Based on 600g/m2 I needed at least 400w for her. I managed to get almost 670g/m2!

Week5 March 1st day 30 I transplanted one( the one with no broken branch) inti the 7gal today watered and did some LST I really hope it adapts to its new home I’ve never transplanted before I used extreme garden MYCOS hope it works also moved the light up a bit and plan on going 100% once I transplant the other one March 2nd transplanted the other one (broken branch one) my shop didn’t have 3.0😔😔😔😔😔😔😔 so i used DNC Great Lakes water only soil hopefully this works and I mixed some 3.0 I had left from the other pot cross fingers for nice transition to its new home March 5 been three days since transplant can’t really tell if they adapted to there new homes yet some sings of stretching since transplant I’ve never transplanted before and I’m not sure if they need water or not so imma chill let them go for couple more days then I’ll water scared to over water them right now since I transplanted them don’t want to over stress them other one in 3.0 seems little droopy to me compared to the one in Great Lakes but Great Lakes soil seems bit dry sooooo idk I’m going keep an eye on them

Week 1 Day 1 - Clones #1 and #2 are looking alright, not super strong and slight nutrient deficiency issues, but OK. Will just observe for now. - These clones are currently under a very mild CFL light (20 cm away and about 200 ppfd measured roughly by phone app - Tent Buddy.) - Clone #3 still need to be covered to maintain moisture. Yesterday I un-cupped the clone and it wilted a lot. This morning it looks better again after a night of rest under the plastic cup. - I've checked the run off and these clone's pH are so low, while TDS are so high (pH 5.7 and TDS 800pm). This evening, I flushed them with pH 6.5 water and brought the runoff to about pH 6.0 and 350 ppm) Week 1 Day 2 - Just foliage spray with mild CalMag this morning. Soil is still moist, so no watering. Week 1 Day 3 - Just minor watering today. Glad to see the clones are doing well as they are growing a bit everyday. Will transfer them to 3 gallon airpots with new soil mix soon. Week 1 Day 4 - Foliage spray with mild CalMag and Seaweed. Add 5ml of 250 ppm of balanced NPK nutrients AN B52 for each plant. Week 1 Day 5 - Foliage spray with mild CalMag and Seaweed. Transfer them to 3 gallon airpots. Week 1 Day 6 - Foliage spray with mild CalMag and Seaweed. Skip watering. The clones responded OK to the new airpots. Week 1 Day 7 - TBA

So after a very slow , deformed and sluggish start , as you can see this girl has now come into her own and very healthy and produceing really well , I seems as soon as I removed all the very first droopy leaves coving up all the branches she shot out in all directions , So I am pleased with her progress now and she looks too be a good yelding plant even at this stage ,

Login issues led to missing a couple weeks, but things have been super smooth. Buds are looking sweeeet and hairy. And they're really fattening up. She's one thick hairy lady. Following the nutrient schedule without deviation, swapping and cleaning the reservoir every week (H2O2 clean), and keeping the humidifier filled. I swapped the pump. First one randomly stopped working for no apparent reason. New one I spec'd with a much lower pump rate and it's a great improvement. No splashing, just a trickle recirculation so I keep it on 24/7. The pH monitoring is so so so much easier now with the good Apera pen. What a difference it makes over the generic ones.

This week was another great week for the ladies, we are in week now 3 and did not have time to start this diary earlier but het better late then never. We are growing 5 out of 6 due to a fuck up did and accidently broke the stem in week 2 so 1 died but the others are striving like i haven't experienced before. I am pretty sure its because we choose are great genetic from Dutch passion but we also changed to Green House feeding and i must say that the results so far are great and their slogan keep it simple is exactly that super simple. Since we (We as in My Son and I) are already in week 3 they are slowly starting to show flowering and i see super healty plants that look different by the day. In closing i fucking love this hobby and sharing our experiences together on this website.😍

This was the last week on vegetation light schedule, we think she had grown enough to start flowering cicle. We also started the defoliation, gradually removing the leaves, when we find it necessary.

Love this strain!! Nutty and meaty spicy terps one one of my favourite to medicate with and grow Both plants where grown in 1 gallon pots so nothing to big of a yield but was expected with the small pots . One plant was canna nutrients one was remo nutrients

She's done. Her trichomes are going milky. I want to harvest her earlier rather than later to get the 'high' trippy effect as opposed to the couchlock when there are amber trichomes present.

white runtz seems to be holding its own in the center of the tent, really impressed with how well it has responded in flower after such a difficult veg phase

Still motoring along in the vertical growth department with about 7" last week, the big girl has begun to flower quite clearly, v2 not so much, but showing clear signs of starting to get serious flowering. I noticed flowering get going a couple days ago with the big girl. The food I gave the big girl was hybrid feeding powder, while I gave v2 "grow" powder for probably the last time. I'm also using the Green House Feed on my White Widow (she's a monster), and I even gave a little to my Gorilla Glue because I didn't like how she was looking with my usual nutrient setup. I'm becoming a fan of the powder stuff as opposed to the multi-part liquid system I've been using for the last couple years for the simplicity of it if nothing else. I'll have to do some math to make sure I have enough of the hybrid powder to last thru the summer to cover at least 3 plants before I let the GG in on the action. The temps have been quite warm the last couple days.... about 90. The only thing predictable is that the forecast will have the temp 5-10 degrees on the low side. There has been almost no fog to speak of so plenty of direct sunshine to gobble up. I'm going to have to up the amount of fluid I've been giving to v2 lately. I was generally going 1.5 gallons/day on the big girl and 1.0 gallons/day on v2... but she's telling me consistently she wants more water - so she'll get the same as the big girl for the next week and we'll see how she swims.
