Hi, everybody. With you back in touch with the Russian gardener. Today I decided to show you my friend's tent. The size of 100 cm by 100 cm has 5 plants of auto AK 47. 5 plants-63 days. 9 weeks. He did not do LST training, but pulled them with a lamp, raising it every week by 10 cm. This is one of the most common cannabis strains on the Russian market. Thanks to strong undemanding genetics, grows almost anywhere in the most adverse conditions, great for the harsh Russian climate and for novice gardeners who with minimal skills want to get the most. As you can see, yesterday we planted 21 sprouted young plants that are preparing for guerrilla cultivation in the open air Later, when we grow them outdoors, I will create a separate diary with a detailed description. Despite the little experience of growth, my friend is a good student and a reliable person, we have grown grass together and harvested. That's why I trust him. Except him, more no one knows about my Hobbies. In this case it is necessary to observe secrecy.

Video and pics were taken at the end of the 9th week, I was away on holiday and let me brother-in-law do the honors of looking after this beaut! Plant had performed a self-topping during my time away. It allowed for 2 colas to pop out from the top.

Song of the week : Jingle bells 🌲 14.12 Boom bang 🔥 ! I think I've found my outdoor 12/12 Autoflowering phenotype , with this height , that shape in a 7tL pot , the flowering under 18/6 , and the vigour : she have all that I was searching for. Now I have to wait and see for the flowering and yield to really know if I've found my winner I also hope that the sex reversion will be effective soon but to stop doubting I prefer to spray it again with sts Now concerning her health and feeding : she has been feed with 1 tea spoon of Mr.B's Green trees Bloom because it's time to push some more pistils but on the other hand the lower leaves are starting to yellowing a bit so suspect her to be or a huge eater or that the pot is so small that she need to be feed at each watering. Whatever it could be she will 're rice s little amount of beg nuts this week then I'll get back to the regular feeding ✌️🏼🦎 ------- 15.12 - I have made 2 videos today. One to show you how it rain in my country and the second to show you the wind during the rain. A regular rain not the hard one

@FAST_BUDS, Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. This is my second cultivation ever and it will be fun to try a bigger space than my closet grow. First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom. I put some pictures on the construction here in week one. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of ​​3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable environment in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 8 pcs 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. But there are no cultivation rooms to be displayed here, so I continue with what is most important. Today I have put my seeds in my moisture dome and hope the seeds have germinated within a few days. I am very excited to see how the new growroom will work and how this new secret CBD plant from @FAST_BUDS, will turn out. .............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. Update 2017-08-15. Both seeds have germinated and planted in small pots inside the humidity dome. I'm so glad it worked so well and now it's just hoping they'll start growing and become 2 big healthy girls :) ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Update 2017-08-16. I have mixed my own soil today. Its 40% sieved peat harrow H2-H4 0-30 mm, 45% sieved peat harrow H4-H6 0-30 mm. 5% sand and 10% of compost soil. And i use 15% of perlite and mix it all together. .................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... 2017-08-21 The 2 sisters are doing great, Nr2 is a bit after Nr1 . Some new pics. ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ 2017-08-23. Transplanted from humidity dome and the small germinating pots to 15 liter autopots. ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ 2017-08-27. The girls have settled in to there new home of the 15 liters autopot after a little transplant chock. Now the real week 1 starts for me and the girls. 4 new pics. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-29. New movie of the girls. Its no water for 3 days now so the roots develop more and match the plant above the soil. The temp controlled fan is awesome, its easy to set what temp you like to have in the room. Right now its 28 celcius. And humidity is 56%. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-29. Hello to you who read my diary, I just want to say that I am pleased that you have chosen to check in with me and in my diary. I just want to say that I do this for myself and for a steady flow of my medicine. Everything you read and see in my diary is 100% honest and I will never distort or beautify anything here. I document my crops so that I can learn from my mistakes and also to look back at those different crops. I try to update with pictures every day and with text if something special has happened in the garden. This is my strainhunt for the best medicine and the beginning of my journey with cannabis and the cultivation of it. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-30. Cleaned the room this morning, just vacuuming and cleaning with chlorine solution. Im testing the fan to control temp and humidity, it works great. Added some pics with measurements and a movie. Everything is looking great right now. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-31. New video of the girls. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-01. New pics and videos. Gave each of the girls with 2 ml Alg-A-Mic, 4ml Bio-Grow, 4ml Bio-Heaven and 10 ml Formulex mixed in 2 liters of water. I hope they like it :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-02. New pics and the girls liked the water and nutrients yesterday. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-03. Video of the girls this morning. Kl 16.00. Did some defoliation on the girls. Videos added. KL. 23.00. New video.

Bubble og I still have 4 of these guys going. A few of them are still dark green and pretty decent growers they have thiner leaves. I'm sure a few of these will be on the chopping block later down a few of them just have crappy start growth and they need the humidity at 75% or above 100% the time with the light lower than normal or they start to shrivel up. That's not all of them just a couple. Also I am only going to flower 8 plants out if the 12 seedling and I have 5 strains going so can't have half my plants bubble og (wish I had room to grow the full 12 plants at a time) It's looking like a good start to a week the plants are strong they are getting to the point I can let the dried dry out completely. I'm thinking by the end of this week the plants will be starting to be sold. Last week I put all the plants into my bigger 2x4 tent with my medicgrow mini sun 2 the 500w version. Only a few of the plants were ready for that light. Seems like the only plants that really have good resistance and have a strong start are the weedseedsexpress.com seeds. Shout out to weedseedsexpress.com for the strong plants. I ended up putting all the plants back into my 2x2 tent with the 55w amazon light it has alot more blue light in its spectrum. It's kinda weird b4 I switched the plants to the 2x4 tent they were getting 220umol under my amazon 55w led then when I put them under the 500w light 25% strength about 50in from plants and they were getting only about 195umol in that tent but it was stressing most the plants. I assume a larger light has more side lighting hitting the plants. I think when useing larger lights it's good to measure umols from the top but also coming from the sides. I think durring seedling stage they only need about 50% the umols coming from the side the plants as the top is receiving. When I put the plants back in the small tent about the same umols as they were getting b4 the switch and they were still a little stressed. So for a few days I put the small light at the top the tent giving them 100umols for a few hrs then 130umols the rest the day.

Unfortunately what we never want to happen has happened with my baby.. bud rot.. on day 98 of cycle I found 1 bud with bud rot, cut it off, checked the plant and could not find more.. flushed the plant and wait next day to see how it goes. After 2 days main bud was identified with bud rot too.. so sad.. probably due high humidity in my environment + colder weather we are starting to have.. so on day 101 harvest it.. could go few more days to get more amber trichomes but decided to harvest it to avoid lose more buds .. I will keep watching it to see if no spread when drying :(

02/14/2026 So I noticed the growth slowed down a bit. I'm guessing it was the low ppm level. Not enough food. So I pumped the water out into another bucket and added more nutrients until it hit 450. I don't want to go any higher yet. Once flower hits, I'm switching to half dose. The thing is, she seems super healthy, if not a bit saggy on the bottom. Maybe that's a sign that she's hungry. Either way, I refilled the bucket with the new dose and we will see how she does. She may be a bit finicky, but I think I got it down. 600 ppm after the flowering stretch. So far she looks great! Good color, no weird issues. Very happy with this plant. The environment is fine today. No issues with the equipment anymore for days. I'll have to keep an eye on her with the new mix to make sure she isn't going toxic. I don't think she will, but you never know. Readings: pH: 5.8 EC: 960 cm TDS: 450 ppm Temp: 67° 02/15/2026 Not much to report today. I'm not seeing much in vigor anymore. If it was only a few days, I'm gonna be really pissed off. There's no reason this plant shouldn't be taking off now. I don't get it. Anyway, the plant itself still looks super healthy. Nice big green leaves. Roots look good too if not a little brown here and there. I checked it's not rot. No clue what it is, but it's very watery. Not slimy and doesn't smell. I think it's just stains. The environment is fine as well. Ranging from 72° to 77° and generally hanging out around 75° just like I have set. The humidity is doing roughly the same thing. Between 52% and 60% while it tends to rest mostly at 55%. Right where I want it. So I'm thinking I'll need to top off every other day at the rate she's drinking. It'll probably end up being everyday when she gets into flower. Update: I raised the light up to 22" and increased the light power up to 60% the DLI is 40 mol. 02/16/2026 Readings: pH: 5.75 EC: 726 TDS: 362 Temp: 67.7 She's looking really good today. No issues but the TDS is still really low. Not super low anymore, but like 362 ppm. I'm changing the water out in a few days. I'll be doing the bloom schedule from then on. She got big. Not tall yet. She's still growing. No buds in sight. Just a happy plant. She's a sativa dominant strain, so she should take a little longer. But I thought that was with Flowering. Oh well. I'm not complaining. If she needs an extra week or so to finish growing, by all means, please grow. The Blue Dream on the other hand has buds at the top already. She doesn't seem to be stretching, but it think it's because she's getting really bushy. Just like this lady here. The environment is looking really good now. Nothing to report. The roots are everywhere now. Mostly white with some brown here and there. Not sure exactly what it is, but it doesn't smell and it's not slimy. Must be stains. It also doesn't rub off like algae would. But they are huge. Nice root ball. I can't even pull the plant all the way out of the bucket anymore. With the size of the plant and the roots being very difficult to move gently, I'm stuck pumping out the water. And pumping it back in. Not that it's hard, but I don't have 2 buckets or I'd be able to pump in a new mix and not have to leave her without water for like 20 minutes while I add like 10 different nutrients. Maybe I'll buy a second bucket. Anyway, that's all for today. 02/17/2026 Not much to report today. She is bigger than yesterday. Slight upward growth, but more outward growth. Bigger leaves and the branches are stretching horizontally. I also counted the nodes. She has 10 nodes before the stacking began. That's like 20 tops. If I can't keep this lady happy for the next 2 months, we shall see a bountiful harvest indeed. She'll be getting a full defoliation right after the stretch. I just did it with the Blue Dream. She'll be done well before the Apple Strudel. Maybe even 2 weeks. But that just means the apple strudel will be a better harvest. Especially because it's still stretching and isn't covered in pistils yet. I hope this isn't another hermie and thats why veg is taking longer. I MUST LOOK! 02/18/2026 I wish I had a 3rd hand, cuz then I could show the MASSIVE root ball. It takes up most of the bucket now. And it's not done. At least based on what I'm seeing as she's still not done stretching. Still no buds too, so she's definitely still stretching. I wonder why she's not slowing down. I've checked multiple times for male parts and I haven't seen anything. Maybe she's just has a longer veg stage. But she has pistils all over the top. Not much on the bottom. So why she's half transitioned to flower. Lol. The environment is looking awesome now. The heater and humidifier are doing minimal work to keep it up to snuff. Very happy with this. Now to keep her happy. I have to check the light distance again I think. Then move it accordingly. She did get a half gallon top off today. It was left over from yesterday. Her readings looking decent. Readings: pH: 6.0 EC: 750 TDS: 375 Temp: 66.3 02/19/2026 So today we did some defoliation. She's starting to show buds, but just. So I defoliated her. She looks good. Nice and open canopy. Lots of air flow. A little droopy now, but that's to be expected. Well, kinda. She's a tiny bit droopy. We'll see how she does this afternoon when the praying starts. The environment is looking really good. Goot temp and humidity. 76° and 55%. I plan on dropping the humidity to 50% next week. I checked the DLI today. It's 41 mol. I'll leave it there for now. There shouldn't be a problem with that, especially because I have CO2 in the tent. So it should be fine with 41. If it goes any higher, I'll have to realize the light a bit more, and or drop the light power. She's still growing. So that's good. The water is perfect. pH is 5.8, EC 797, TDS is 442. Temp was 76.6° very happy with those numbers. Next week I'll increase the TDS to 500 I think. She should be strong enough to handle a good amount of bloom nutrients. Hopefully she's not as sensitive to the bloom stuff as she was to the grow stuff. She seems to be happy with the current mix, and when she really needs the bloom nutrients, she should be really hungry. 02/20/2026 Last day of week 6. 6 weeks in veg is quite the long time and not much to show for it. Don't get me wrong, she's a beautiful plant, but she should be much bigger for 6 weeks in veg. Oh well. She'll make up for it with buds. Lots and lots of buds. The water is really low. Like maybe over a gallon low, but I'm replacing it tomorrow with bloom nutrients. So I don't want to top off and waste nutrients. Oh, so I tried to lift the roots out of the bucket just to see if I could move the plant. Nope. The roots are heavy. The ball is massive. As I said before, it takes up the whole bucket. So it is confirmed, I cannot remove the plant from the bucket. I thought it would have been from the canopy being held down by the trellis net. Well, this is a benefit. Now I know I can use the trellis net and not have to worry about what if. Lol. The environment is good to go. Nothing else to say. As for the plant itself, she looks great! Nice and open. Plenty of light to get to the bottom buds and plenty of air flow.

The left one is still slower but coming on nicely, with the reduced bud sites I'm expecting larger buds. The right one has a lot more buds, so it should be a good comparison. The Autopots are doing their thing hassle-free watering.

Day 22 22/07/24 Monday Nothing new to report. Starting to see them beautiful fans appear that's all 😁✌️ Day 23 23/07/24 Tuesday Feed today, giving them straight all nutes Inc flowering nutes. I will update the dose as they grow and develop a bigger hunger. (Not sure what's wrong with Overdose #2, bit mutated, we'll see how she gets on 😅) Video updates 👌💚 Day 26 26/07/24 Friday De-chlorinated watering pH 6 with 5ml calmag to 5L water. Watered each with 250ml and had small run off. I will continue to feed/water with small run offs to help prevent salt build ups. Video update.

Week 10 done and dusted and I think she is getting closer.... she absolutely stinks so I'm staying out of the tent as much as I can so the pictures are getting less.... No problems to report everything seems to be going just as it should be. 1 question though is from the pics and videos I've posted when would you guys start the 2 week flush? Thanks for popping by people and happy growing 😊

I am busy all weekend, so I wanted to make sure I got something out of the grow (just in case). I might use a good portion of this harvest for rosin and for when friends ask :) That is if the second plant lasts until next week. I cant ask my wife to keep an eye on water, roots, or bud.

Comenzamos la semana de floración con una gran poda de bajos dejando estas con forma de palmera o Chupa Chups. En el día de hoy le bajé dos horas al horario de vegetación de 18/6 a 16/8 en los siguientes días bajo dos horas así hasta alcanzar el 12/12 de manera gradual. Hoy se aplicará un riego de vitaminas y entaizante. 17/3/26 Aquí seguimos con las pequeñas algunas mejor otras peor.. pero todas sanas. Seguimos controlando el espacio de cultivo de la mejor manera posible. Una ec 1350 un ph 6,2 Forman el esquema de alimentación de esta semana a partir de la siguiente pegaremos una subida gradual hasta llegar al tope de las niñas. 20/3/26 Seguimos con un avance espectacular! Las niñas crecen de una manera espectacular! Muy contento con los avances en este cultivo! Esperemos que la floración sea igual de vigorosa .. Pero ya sabemos que hay mil factores,que pueden alterar el producto final,aquí seguiremos mejorando con cada uno! 22/3/26 Seguimos en la línea en el día de hoy se dio un buen riego cargado de nutrientes para el crecimiento de esta fase de cambio a la floración los siguientes riegos ya serán más centrados en la floración con más fósforo y potasio en la solución. Esta vez añadiré aditivos de mejorar la floración para hacer esta un poco más larga ya que busco un buen producto final con gran maduración.

One month of flowering is behind us. Another one to go - or so 😎 They are doing mighty fine 💪 Bueautiful overall, tightly stacked colas, healthy leaves 🍃 Most of canopy tops get 1000-1100 PPFD - corners get around 600-ish 🌞 I take a leaf here and there when I see it creating moisture spots or shadowing bud sites too much. Bottom half got lollipopped 🍭 See you in a week 👊
