Finally got a grow tent. Still using the shitty lights though, that'll be fixed another pay day !

Week 1 with timelapse.

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

Day 127. Chop day !!!! Zkittalicious #6 is my first plant without any airy or small bud !!!! Plus he will be like others in 100g range ... #2 should beat all single plant records ;))) Happy Growing !!!

Finally she has shown some signs of flowering. I thought that she would stay short, because i accidentally broke her in half. But she survived and grew much bigger than i even thought she would. The main cola, that i broke is the biggest of them all 😁 Other than that everything looks nice. No signs of any kind of dis balance ✌️

This week flushing the wedding cake i thought that was the problem was an excess of nutrients, but instead the water was quite clean, around 1100ppm at the first drain, after several flushes water is now on 600ppm.. It seems that the others are starting to have the same deficiency that hit wedding # 2 .. now I'm treating them with 0.5ml of cal-mag adding it to the other nutrients for once a week (except wedding # 2) I will wait for the soil to dry out, to give her only clean water since the final harvest is not long. ⚠️ UPDATE DAY 45 ⚠️ Yesterday flush for dos si dos and today flush for (wedding cake 1) they are having a nutrient lockout too..😪 The (wedding cake 1) is clearly healthier than her sister (wedding cake 2) by looking at her color, but unfortunately she had excessive PPM / EC too.. So i did the same procedure by using only tap water, but this time added only 0,5ml of cal-mag. Water was at 6.5 ph until I got a better runoff, it went from 5.7 to 6.0 PH and from 1800 to 700-600ppm 😬 I have never thought of overdoing nutrients so much.. I will certainly learn a lot from these mistakes 🙌🏻

i put two autoflowering, i'm out of weed

Fat basted is vegging nicely, started tying her down and spreading her out some more after transplanting again into a 27 L pot where she will stay , same same next week . Maybe 1 or two more weeks of veg

Day 22. Girls loved LST and now its absolute single bush ;))) Hope they will start stretching a bit otherwise i will have soccer ball size one nugs instead of plant ;))) In plans new wave of heavy training on thursday and feed. Ordered new fans, old ones tend to die in a year of heavy work, theirs speed reduces a lot ... Morning / evening showers and thats all my attention... Can't tuck leaves, can't spread them yet, but hopefully next week all pot space will be taken. Kushes are behind, they will be fimed or toped. My LST style allows new branches to stretch up a bit and on second day i release leaves from prison, despite being lifted from soil, they touch each other and sweat, that brings static moist - highway to mold problems. But on first LST training i touch, bend them a lot, target to free up and expose all branches to light, at this time main top usually lowest. Wash your hands and do it before watering . If you need you can twist stem left or right, to find best position for easy tucking, if you can't - sometimes view leaves has to fall ... Day 24. Heavy training straight before night, hope to make everything : 1. New floor fans 2. New air fans 3. Heavy wave of LST and pot management 4. Watering. All done ! Had no time to make photos, but girls got tie supports around pots, loads of tucking, few soft wires and loads of showers, they will be fed tomorrow .. Don't forget its day 20-22 from first sign of life, both main strains grow amazing and super compact. Kushes a bit struggling, they didn't enjoy 6.0 watering and i think light and humidity is way of range for younger plants... plus sensitive to nutes ? But they fight and grow, will have to top them next week. Day 25. I know sometimes it happens, but one of Cheeses was too fat and thick and snaped during night after heavy LST session. First time in my life, once i snaped myself, now pressure did the thing ... Day 30. Work took me totally away from growing, have no time, just water them and spray twice a day. Tomorrow should be next LST training done. Will upload how they bushed out. Happy growing !!!

Flowering – Day 21 | End of Week 3 Day 21 since the flip to 12/12, and today was finally cleanup day! The stretch is already over. There was barely any vertical growth during the last week, and the girls have clearly started focusing on flower development. Honestly, I think they’re looking pretty far along for just day 21. The buds are already forming nicely! Today I gave both plants a proper cleanup underneath, removing weak branches, lower shoots and anything that wasn’t getting enough light. I actually left quite a bit more on the plants than I normally would. Since this run is going to be washed, I’m not really worried about perfect-looking buds or bag appeal. This time it’s all about biomass, so even the smaller flowers are welcome. Right after the defoliation, I also switched off the AutoPot system for a little controlled dryback. I’ll leave it off for up to 48 hours, depending on how quickly the pots use up the remaining water. This is something I’ve had good experiences with back when I was hand watering. I used to time my defoliation so the next watering would be about two days later, instead of watering right after cutting everything back. The plants always seemed to handle it better that way. The idea isn’t to stress the plants or let the soil dry out. With BioTabs, I want to keep the microbial life happy and active. It’s more about giving the root zone a little breathing room after removing so much leaf mass, especially now that the plants temporarily need less water. With 20L AutoPot FlexiPots and a 50/50 mix of Lightmix and perlite, the substrate is already pretty well aerated. This short break is just my way of managing moisture and keeping the roots healthy. I’m not trying to push yield through crop steering here. Apart from that, everything is going really well. The plants are looking super healthy, the leaf color is great, and the flowers are developing faster than I expected. The BioTabs setup is doing its job, and I’m really happy with how things are going. Three weeks into 12/12 and we’re already looking good. Now it’s time to let the girls do their thing and stack some flowers! 🌱

My experience overall can be best described as an interesting enlightening process. Since it was my first time growing it was definitely a learning experience. From the height being as tall as it was to the high winds in the area making it difficult to keep them from toppling when the buds were reaching full maturity. Thinking it would have benefited from more topping than just the once. The terps that this strain has are exquisite!! I am going to miss walking by them towering over me and just breathing in their berry cream aroma, taking in the sweetness like I had just had some dessert. Really enjoyed this strain and hope to grow it again sometime. Thanks for checking out my first grow 🌼💚✌️

Serious week of stacking and buds packing on weight 🤙 5 of the Glueberry are covered in crystals already and some have plenty of red hairs already... And it's only day 63 completed 😁 The other Glueberry and Mazar are defo 2 r 3 weeks behind the others, but their both Huge and absolutely stacking up 😎 Cause my grow space is now like an absolute jungle 🌱🌿🌱, other than feeding them, its very difficult to get good individual photos of them. I reckon there's 2 weeks left on the 5 Glueberry and another couple weeks after for the last gberry and Mazar, but only time will tell

Bruce Banner #3 fast just went to oh water. She is scheduled for harvest in about 2 weeks. She got nice, and frosty under the Hortibloom Solux 350. Looks better then I expected. I think I messed up somewhere along the way. I will still have a little harvest from her. Thank you Hortibloom, and The Orginal Sensibile seeds company. 🤜🏻🤛🏻💪🏻❄️🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

Accidently deleted the update video:( Good week, things are just getting dialed in........................... Herz IG coming down this week, shes a beast Fat ass starter leaves on the @Wicked_Stix genetics BUT!!!!!!! Scroggernaut needs a Makeover!!!! Stay tuned Next week when I get a whole bunch of new equipment and introduce "Scroggernaut Intense"

1/29/24 - Beginning of week. Looked good, was planning on letting it go another week but within a day the top leaves started turning yellow all over and I started seeing amber, just a few but spread out all over the plant, so last minute decision to harvest on 1/31/24.

Things have been cruising along at this point. Clones have been taken. I’m about ready to put them in 5 gallons and flower them out.

Week 7+8 for Thelma and Louise and both gals are looking great! As I mentioned before I'm going to let these ladies go until the fade is nice and the trichs are at least 30% amber and I hope that results in FATTY colas! I cut out the silica since they are flowering nicely now. These girls have the most rock-hard stems I've come across so far, feels like bamboo and a karate kick wouldn't do shit to it LOL! Happy growing everyone!

Can't keep up with defoliation once the autopots kick inn, best room upgrade ever. The Cuppa T was the biggest plant before the other four went in their autopots. Just pH water this week and a foliar feed with my KNF FAA, WCAP and LAB. Flowering start on the 29th under the new Lumatek Attis 300w
