Welcome We are at the final conclusions for this premium Kush strain 💯 Breeding by Microgenetica Seed bank Italian made since 2015, based in the beautiful city of Amsterdam This variety has won already three cannabis cups, both in Ams and both in Barcellona 🏆🏆🏆 So, maybe isn't a mainstremm seed bank, but they works very well 👌 Especially the breeder/owner wich is call Stefano Lillo, a great person and super disponible But anyway Almost two months are passed from the final cut and now the flowers are in their best moment Especially the Kush varietyes, probably the strain with a good amount of myrcene, in my opinion take the best and complete taste after this amount of time.. The "Sativa" ones , in the other hands, can be very tasty after only a months ,or less...to be precis the cultivars with mostly fruity tone ! That's my experience.. Coming back to this Mature woman 😎 The taste is obviously very kushy , intense and persistent in smoke session 🔥🔥 I personally prefere to vape it 🙌 Best temperature for a complete taste and effect around 182° and then up to 192° Dipends always from a wich types of vaporizer you use ! With all the famous seriese from the "Vulcano company" , for any their vaporizer, you can follow the temperature up here.. But for example with the Ghost MV1, the best for me is around 190° to 200° Anyway For test at the best if the quality can be ok, i always roll up a spliff...no tobacco or other things.. I do that for see how it burns...slow or fast and especially white ash or contamineted My way for having that is pretty simple.. Only water for the last 20 or more days, no flush like a shower 🚿 I cut the plant in one time and leave it hanging upside down inside a wooden cabinet with always a slight change of air (for example an oscillating fan a few meters away) I leave almost all the leaves still attached (these will give a good indicator of where we are in drying) The whole process must last a maximum of ten days ! Temperature and humidity must always be equally balanced ... even if there were 25 ° there is no problem ... the important thing is that in this case the humidity is not too low, risking to dry the flowers (in this case can be good around 60/62%) The meaning is to always try to stay within the ten days ... + or - So, after a little more than a week the flowers will be crunchy on the outside .... but the stem must not break cleanly, only bend almost reaching the crack.. If the popcorn buds peel off nicely, then it's time to take out all the blooms.. Cleaned the branches from the inflorescences, I usually place them for another two days in a brown paper bag.. Then I put everything back in the jars.. I don't open for 24h ! After this time I start to open and close every about four hours.. I continue like this for about two and a half weeks and every five days, about, I reduce the openings and closings until I get to feel the aroma in its true form. Ah and i do not leave too much air in the jars when the flowers are ready...terpenes oxidize faster...air and light are our enemies ☝️ { But not during the cultivation 😂 } And that's it For more info on this grow cycle you can search in the several weeks where I tried to bring everything back to the best 😉 Thanks so much for the support 🙏🙏 Thanks to Microgenetica for the trust 🙏🙏 And thanks as always to Growdiaries for this space 👍👍👍 Ciao ✌️ 🇮🇹🌏🌎🌍

I keep increasing the light and she seems to enjoy it, growing new bud sides and leaves everyday. Defoliation continues. I can’t go below 25-26 Celcius due to increased light though. She has also been moved to back middle.

Hello Fellow Growers, 👻 Boogie on to week 2 with exceptional amount growth. Both of these girls are coming off strong. Not sure if its going well or not for my plants, but hey for the looks of it they seem to be doing just fine. Started my first LST after it grew a couple sets of leaves. I was really scared attempting the LST on the Tangerine Dream. I thought I did more of HST than LST. Keep the advice coming dudes! I haven't reached week 4 yet so I am going to continue on with the normal feed of Cali-Mag, Wholly Mack, & Big Bloom. I noticed with the Wholly Mack, it lowers my PH content down to 5.0. Is this normal with this kind of product?

The last week I kept the girls in the shade a bit during the day. We´ve had temperatures close to 40 degrees C. I didn´t want to expose them to too much heat.

OK So had some non plant related as well as plant related issues this week. Been hectic with personal life, and still finding my groove with the girls .. I decided against any sort of training .... get it you can maximaxe and all but m all about letting them do their thing with some love and help, i feel like the hst and defoliation is just not for me at present time. If i get into commercial i definately see the advantages... Im growing for just myself , have zero friends and girlfriend doesnt really part take except the sometimes will hit a vape pen and shes done .. so all the fruits are for me and just do not see the need to mutalate my plants to get extra,, ill just grow more :D Recap : 5 - Barneys Glue Gelato Autoflowers 2 - "Freebie" Caramel Cream Aut o <I believe Maine Clone Company > though did not have label. All seeds came from AMAZING NORTH ATLANTIC SEED COMPANY .... ZERO issues ordering , shipping and popped 7 for 7 seeds even with some pretty disasterious goofs , see week 1 1. Struggled with Lighting - Definatly had the California Lightworks Solar Extreme TOO CLOSE .. now keeping a good 24 inches and will adjust soon with flowering 2. Struggled with PH - My well water is great .. low PPM and 7.0 ph . BUT i use ph down it seems each day with the top off water to bring the girls down from 6.5 - 6.8 to a nice 5.9-6.0 Eariier not too bad as the girls were not drinking so much ... which leads me to next 3. THEY ARE DRINKING BOY ... Holy cow this week they became drinkers liike i did not expect. I run my lights 2 pm to 8 am and turn off until 2 pm each day .... I top off in the morning before i put them to sleep , the bigger girls ... 4 of the glue gelatos autos are drinking almost half gallon each per day atm . While my lil girls <caramel cream autos > are much shorter and i have one gelato glue auto on the smaller side . They do not drink nearly as much maybe a quart . 4. I goofed on the BLOOM, I did not expect bloom so early i was planning on this week to start them .... but nope showed signs of sulfur deficiency , caught it early and changed the feeding to bloom cycle and WOW they took the hell off ... Have TREMENDOUS growth in past week sinced changed cycle ... Again im following FAST BUDS auto feeding chart for expert for general hydro to the T and adding HYDROGUARD 5. I have one caramel cream auto with mag deficiency signs on some bpottom fan leaves but i believe i got that fixed when i did the water change, not sure why just her , unless i goofed on the bucket mix. Which brings me to next statement ... IM INVESTING IN A GDAM 13 GALLON x 8 bucket plus RES kit for next grow ... Doing and maintaining 7 buckets is a royal pain in the ass . I honestly only expected 4 plants out of the 7 . AND expected fully i would kill something along the way I am visually impaired and BRain Tumor Dude .. so i gots some issues sometimes . .. but if you check out the videos i post in a bit here you can see, WTF i am doing ok i feel like . Great looking plants from my amateur opinion , always room for improvement as i am super critial of everything i do OCD/ADHD glorious combo BUT YES a better setup is needed for ease of use .. I bought my complete setup at PA HYDROPONICS , meaning my BUCKETS with fittings and hydroton . 200 bucks could not find better price anywhere he does a great fallponics custom build with 3 inch pvc that i have seen in action and tis a thing of beauty for us home growers. Plus i can add a small chiller to the mix to keep that temp a tad bit lower. IT about an 800 dollar upgrade BUT for the rest of my setup it belongs : vivosun 4x9 tent Ac Infinity T8 x 2 <one for vent one for blower , also have a great merv 13 filter box from ac infinity so as not to such in yuck from basement. 2 california solar extreme 550 So i figure adding an 8 bucket fallponics to fill the tent would look so much better tahn my 5 gallons and the constant checking each one and filling etc .... Having the res would be nice I also see the cons of it as if you goof you goof on all not just one .... But i m fairly certain i will upgrade. ***************** So right now it looks like nice buds are starting to form on all 7, the Glue Gleatos are much taller and full than the caramel creams ... I am tracking water being added and at this rate will need another change over in a day or two if drinking 1/2 gal a day and about 3 gallons <12 liters> labout inch from bottom of net pot. Rule of thumb being water change to replace nutes when you replace a volume equal to the total volume ... which is about every 6 days , last water change being 8/7 I will post some more when i inspect the ladies when i turn on the lights at 2 pm First time grower in setu

🌿 Woche 5 🌱 Wachstum & Training 🌱 Das Training läuft fantastisch – ein täglicher, stetiger Prozess. 😬✂️ Beide Damen sehen rundum gesund aus, mit kräftig grünen Blättern. 💪🍀 Sogar ein halb abgebrochener Trieb hat sich richtig gut erholt. 👌🌱 Man merkt inzwischen, dass eine der Damen dominanter ist. 👑🔥 Der mittlere Bereich ist hart umkämpft – vielleicht doch ein Ticken zu eng für zwei Pflanzen. 🤼‍♀️😨🌱 Ich habe daher ordentlich entlaubt und ein paar kleinere Triebe entfernt. ✂️🍃🗑️ Langsam füllt sich der gesamte Raum mit einem gleichmäßigen Blätterdach. 🌳💚 Der Stretch hat begonnen – und alle Triebe haben richtig Bock, steil zu gehen! 🚀🌿🎯 💧 Living Soil – Only Water 💧🌍 Wie man sieht: Kein einziger Trieb oder ein Blatt mit Mängeln. ✅🌱👌 Die Vegetationsphase lief absolut problemlos – ganz ohne Temperatur- oder Luftfeuchtigkeitsunterstützung. 🌡️💨❌ Nur mit einer Mischung aus destilliertem Wasser und Leitungswasser. 💧🚰 🔄 Drehbarer Topf 🎥 Ich bin nach wie vor ein großer Fan dieser Lösung! 😄👍 Nicht nur entstehen witzige kleine Videos, sondern es hilft enorm beim Training. 📸✂️ Ich achte beim Formen stets darauf, die Drehfunktion nicht einzuschränken – klappt bisher richtig gut. 🔄✔️ 💡 Licht & Schatten 🔆🌘 Im Laufe der Woche habe ich das Licht auf bis zu 400 PPF hochgedreht. 💡📈 So streben die Triebe weiter aktiv nach Licht – bekommen aber auch nicht zu wenig. 🌞🌱➡️💥 💧 Blumat & Gießen 💧🚿 🕒 Alle paar Tage bei 110 mbar 🚿 Jeweils 2 l Wasser 💦 ☀️ Wetter 🌡️🔥 Die Temperaturen waren (und sind) brutal: 26°–33 °C. ☀️ Scheint aber bisher alles gut zu verkraften. 😌🌿💪 🎶 The Grow must go on! 🌱🎵💚✨

Watering less at a time but more often now. Spent some time twisting the main stem to assist in bending her over. Secured down between the first and second node of 3 currently. Stem is very rigid so I moved some soil around the base to relieve some stress on the base. LST seems to be doing great since I was forced to move the tie downs from the main stem to the fan leaves. Watering with Real Growers Recharge on 5/2/22.

What to say about this week? For starters LST was started this week. Initially I used garden ties but soon after replaced them with 6” garden staples . 2 of the 6 girls began throwing pistals resulting from the LST starting around day 15 YIKES 😬. The Zkittlez & the Runtz both from (Expert Seeds ) began giving the 5x5 its first smells . The LST so far has been a pleasure no ooosy daisies so far & the girls are showing what they are made of . The secondary shoots have great potential to form a nice round bush that I can train out into an even-as-possible canopy . Today is day 21 & day 20 for this bunch . They are only using Gaia Green dry amendments for feedings but I decided to take some advice given to another grower & supplement my girls with some compost tea . NO I DONT THINK THEY NEED ANYTHING ADDITIONALLY IM REALLY HAPPY SO FAR WITH MY NUTES bbbbuuuuuttttttt in the short chance that my ladies may take a liking to an occasional tea & reward my pampering with large , long , frosty, stacked cola’s . . Thennnn I’m supplementing , I consider this all “4-play” for my ladies Ik a giver 🤷‍♀️😭 My only concerns are racing against this clock to get as much size & solid structure before flowering sets in I’ve really got my heart set on a certain outcome & I’m one for a good challenge. Finally , atleast as much as I can remember, I increased the dimmer knob on the light from 65% to about 78%. I won’t increase the watts any higher until bloom sets in fully & at that point I’ll be turning it to 100% raising it a maybe 6 inches & watching patiently for my girls to start praying 🙏 to it . Week 3 in the books !

She is fattening up real nice. I made the mistake of not adding a filter and omg this girl smells loud asf. Skunky with a hint of sweet really cannot wait to harvest her. We are almost at that point. She get her last feed this week and then it’s off to flush. 4gs of full tilt per gallon at an ph of 6.0 to finish her off. Thank you all for watching you all are the real mvps thanks you.

The plants are not fully in the same stage, but most started getting milky trichomes so I decided to flush. Roughly 3-4 times the usual amount of water. Ph to 6.2 and a lot of run off water. Never experienced with flushing so here goes nothing. I will try and cut all the plants at the same time. The trichome development will be at different stages but this might be a good way to see what trichome stage I like most, and I will be able to decide better in future grows. To be honest I'm not looking for highest possible THC content ;) Taste/smell are priority.

Hi Growmies, This grow was not about growing the biggest plant but a test on how Natural sunlight compares to artificial light. I can be clear on one thing: natural sunlight gives a better terp/trichomes development, at least within my setting. This is probably due to natural UV rays within sunlight which is harder to get in a tent. Also the cost of this grow was so cheap, that if I would sell 3 grams I would have my whole investment in this grow back. So cost wise an outside grow will always beat an inside grow, especially with the current energy rates where I live. So after the drying process we will do a quick taste test before jarring it up to cure. That will also be the time I weight my buds, wet weight is not important to me. Hope y'all will come by later for the final verdict but for now, feel free to scroll this diary and if you have any questions feel free to ask those and I will try to answer yours ASAP. Have a good one and hope to see you in 10 days or so👋🏽
