Hey folks, I'm finally back at it again. It took me a while for a couple of reasons: 1) I usually only grow in the winter. 2) I completely revamped my grow room after the issues I ran into with the last setup. 3) It took me a while to brainstorm exactly what I wanted to do. I bought these seeds from D.C. Seeds and was very pleased with the experience. I'm very happy to give business to a fellow American and Veteran. I've only ever purchased seeds from the UK in the past and that experience has been "dodgy" to say the least (not the vendors fault, but the transit). I've only ever grown photo's, but chose to go with all auto's moving forward. After calculating the intensity of my current light, with it being on a 20/4 rotation I'm very close to hitting 40 moles per day, at least directly under the light. It doesn't quite cover my 2' x 5' trellis. I'll eventually upgrade my light, but auto's should get me the best bang for my buck with this light. Also, I spent a pretty penny building this new grow room. The other obvious reason for growing auto's is their shorter seed to harvest time. I've got a small grow area, and never plan on expanding. Theoretically, auto's will allow me to produce the most out of my room. A few things about my grow room: 1) I lined the whole closet with 1/2" plywood and put that piece of ply the air intake/outtake/power as the divider between each side of the closet 2) The grow room itself has ply on all wall surfaces so I could mount stuff to it and paint it 3) The other side of the closet is my storage/prep/power distribution/etc. area. Maybe I'll take a pic one of these days 4) My last grow my carbon filter/fan was venting into the other side of the closet. This created a headache for a number of reasons. I tapped a 4" hole through the floor and am now venting into my crawl space below the house. 5) I moved to bubbleponics to speed up my grows even more. I will be removing the drip system once the roots hit the water in the res. 6) The larger res. will hopefully make my life much easier. Late in the last grow I could only fit 3 gallons of water in the bucket and that sucker was pounding down at least a gallon a day. That required too much micro-managing for me (both ph and refills). 7) I no longer have a fixed trellis with chicken wire. The trellis is held in place by dowels that I can pull out by hand. The short sides of the trellis have hinges on the bottom, so I can fold it and pull it out easy-mode. Lastly, I'll be using string for the trellis so come harvest all I have to do is cut the string instead of dealing with trying not to destroy buds pulling them through chicken wire (it takes forever). 8) I built a light diffuser on the other side of the air intake 9) My res. is on a motorcycle lift I'm using a drill to move up and down I have now started using Jack's as my primary nutes. They tell you the full break-down of each macro and micro nute, giving me more control and understanding. I think House & Garden is a good product, but when stuff goes bad it's more difficult to troubleshoot when you have no idea what each piece of their full lineup contains. I'm assuming it's kind of a proprietary type thing, which I understand, but knowledge is power. I am still using their Drip Clean (while the bubbler is going) and Roots Excelurator Silver, both excellent products. I'm still using Hydroguard, and will FOREVER. I'm a true believer now of why Hydroguard is necessary for any hydro application, IMO. I also purchased water soluble fulvic acid, but have decided not to use it for this grow....or at least while the bubbler is going (I'll elaborate below). Ok...now that all that is out of the way.... I really wanted to use my well water instead of R/O to make my life easier. Soooo....I filled up my res., and put two seeds in the system immediately. Nothing happened after 1 1/2 weeks. I finally opened up the cubes and saw that the beans had popped, but it looked like maybe I drowned them, or they ddin't grow straight up or something. For round two, I didn't change the water out, and decided to soak the beans for 24 hours in R/O water first. I had the exact same problem. I'm still not really sure what happend, but I suspect it was the well water. My PPMs were sitting at ~500 with the well water, which was probably too spicy for the beans just starting. Also, my well water is questionable (even though it's at 165ppm), but I won't elaborate further....it's a long ass story and I've spent an absurd amount of money on it. Lastly, I did put the Fulvic acid in, and it was very messy. I really want to avoid having to clean my res. Once the roots get big it will be a real pain in the ass to clean. I'm leaning towards not using the Fulvic acid this grow just to see how things go. I had 10 beans total of the Sour Apple and have already ruined 4. So here's hoping third times the charm. So, I went back to my tried and true method: 0) R/O water for everything. Ditching the well water idea. 1) Soak beans in R/O water for 24 hours 2) Paper towel method between plates on a heating mat 3) Once the roots pop, I place them pointed down in the hole of the rockwool cube 4) Hand water once a day by dipping the cube in the pre-mix of 1/4 strength Jack's and everything else I've listed above. This put my PPMs at 300...a way more reasonable value for starts. It's been exactly 7 days since I followed the above. It's probably hard to see but the cotyledons came up, and multiple roots have come out the bottom of the cubes....way faster than I've ever seen since I started growing. That means even though I'm doing my old process this already shaved at least a week off of when I'd normally put it in my bucket in the past.

Ragazzi ma succede anche a voi che le foto nn vengono caricate in ordine? Non capisco ci sono sempre problemi bug con grow diaries, non posso stare a riordinare decine di foto e ricordarmi quale erano Nell ordine corretto.. Spero la situazione si risolva.. Apparte questo, Eccoci alla seconda settimana di fioritura e tutto procede bene, purtroppo c'è ancora poca resina, infatti sto aumentando i l ec della soluzione fino a 2.0.. Vediamo se la ragazza inizia a svegliarsi. Per ora un leggero odore speziato e nulla di più.. Mi aspettavo diverso da anesia seeds, ma è probabile che essendo sativa principalmente come genetica ci metterà un po a partire? Per ora è crescita benissimo come struttura è davvero magnifica, grande rigogliosa con tante cime piccoline ben distanziate, senza affollamento.. Mi aspetto grandi cose da questa ragazza spero esploda in un tripudio di resina e di odori acidi!! Buon 420 a tutti alla prossima settimana!! 💪😸🌱🌿🌲🧑‍🌾

Moin, Die 2. Blütewoche ist mittlerweile vorbei und wie befinden und an Blütetag 15. Der Stretch ist noch nicht komplett durch nimmt mittlerweile aber deutlich im Tempo ab und die Zkittlez fängt mit der Blütenbildung an mit jeden Tag kommen neue Pistils dazu und die ersten Trichome bilden sich auf den kleinen Blättern. Vom Wuchs ist die Z wirklich kein Kraftpaket im Gegensatz zu ihrer Nachbarin, die Internodienabstände sind groß und die Triebe bleiben relativ schwach und dünn. Immerhin der Stretch verlief gut und blieb bisher gut unter Kontrolle. Seit 2 Tagen werden auch keine Triebe mehr gescroggt. Am Wochenende wird nun gelollipopt und die Intercanopy-Lights kommen als zusätzliche Beleuchtung dazu. Hey, The second week of flowering is now over, and we’re on day 15 of flowering. The stretch phase isn’t quite over yet, but it’s slowing down significantly, and the Zkittlez is starting to form flowers—new pistils are appearing every day, and the first trichomes are forming on the small leaves. In terms of growth, the Z really isn’t a powerhouse compared to its neighbor; the internode spacing is large, and the shoots remain relatively weak and thin. At least the stretch phase went well and has remained well under control so far. We’ve also stopped scrugging the shoots for the past two days. This weekend, we’ll be lollipopping the plants, and the Intercanopy lights will be added as supplemental lighting.

in this final stretch I am using only water without any fertilizer.

Día 13 (06/05) Nos acercamos al final de la fase plántula. A ver si ahora empiezan a crecer de forma explosiva! He sido muy estricto con los riegos, dejando que el top hasta el nudillo se seque completamente! Día 14 (07/05) Hago una mejora en la tienda. Hasta ahora tenia intracción pasiva, pero ahora he instalado una turbina para que impulse aire fresco dentro de la tienda Día 15 (08/05) Con el calor que hace me sorprende que las macetas sigan aguantando la humedad, pero al hundir el nudillo sigue húmeda. Mañana haré un riego de nuevo Día 16 (09/05) Relleno el top con sustrato para compensar la compactación y dar mas soporte a las plantas Riego con 300 ml solo H20 - pH 6,2 Día 17 (10/05) Baño de sol de dos horas. Día 18 (11/05) Baño de sol de dos horas Día 19 (12/05) Riego 750 ml H2O + Regulator 0,15 ml/l + CaMg-Boost 0,25 ml/l + Startbooster 0,25 ml/l - pH 6.2 💦Nutrients by Aptus Holland - www.aptus-holland.com 🌱Substrate PRO-MIX HP BACILLUS + MYCORRHIZAE - www.pthorticulture.com/en/products/pro-mix-hp-biostimulant-plus-mycorrhizae

This gal already drinks more than the others and after I took pictures, 2 big fan leaves show nitrogen deficiency. So, she needs more food than the others. All the girls had 5-6 inches of growth this week. Strawberry Cadillac #1 18” #2 14“ Strawberry Trop Cherry #1 12” #2 9” Straw-Lectric Lemonade #1 11” #2 14 Stay green, growers love 💚🌿 💫Natrona💫

Hello everyone, my friends! this week we will do more with the rinsing of the roots, waiting for these magical nuggets to swell even more 😉🍭

she‘s filling out the tent (0,36 square meters) nicely. She‘ll be put into a bigger tent later on (0,5 square meters) which is why I‘ll try to let her fill this one out as much as I can. I‘ll probably flip her into flower later this week. Switched to flower on day 60

Day 5 since time change to 12/12. Hey everyone ☺️. Finally the time has come :-) The lady moved into the flower tent on January 6th, 2021 😁. The day before, of course, a cutting was taken 👍. In the flowering tent, the distance between the plant and the lamp is 40 cm so that she can get used to the strength of the lamp. After 3-5 days I go down to 30 cm. This week it was watered twice with 1 l per plant. GHSC enhancers were added to one wash :-). Flower fertilizer will only be added in 12-16 days as soon as the first blossoms are there :-). Otherwise the tent was completely cleaned and the humidifier refilled. For the next few days I have filled fresh osmosis water in canisters again :-). Next week I will remove the bottom shoots so that the energy doesn't end up going into small popcorn buds 😉. There is nothing more to report this week and I wish you all a lot of fun with the update 😀.

Rocking and rolling first feed of Alaska Fish Shit

End of summer, end of the outdoor grow 😊 At the beginning of the week, I gave the little one a thorough flush: with a compact substrate, its essential. After that, she spent 5 days without watering in her greenhouse, left partly open so the air could dry out the soil. Ive said it before, but Ill say it again: an incredible amount of resin production towards the end of her life, and buds hard as rocks for this genetic! Not a trace of pests: clearly, the hot, dry summer got rid of quite a few of them, the presence of attractive plants nearby in the garden (lavender, raspberry bushes etc.) diverted their attention, and finally, coexisting with the basil and cherry tomatoes in the greenhouse seems to be a good symbiosis. After the chop, she joins her big indoor sisters in the drying room; see you in 2 weeks for the weigh-in! EDIT : Result from this late-summer run in Northern Europe: 33 g, nicely trimmed, sticky all over and absolutely fragrant ! A modest yield, but a nice addition to my indoor production. This Strawberry stays on the fingers and leaves behind an aroma of cream and resinous wood. The curing has only just begun, so it should develop a beautiful bouquet. I’ll give it a first test in 4–6 weeks 😊

Amazing plants super fruity and sweet terps, I could grow this strain nonstop until I die, amazing strain, very recomended, I got a finished diary on this strain if you want to take a look, really happy with her performance, stay tuned to see how this diary ends!! 👨‍🌾❤️💚💛

Tag 15 meine lieben die Ladys entwickeln sich super bleibt dran um nichts zu verpassen 💚

I add many a bit less fertilizer. I noticed from the past planting. My plant is organic planting, so the problem is how do I using the nutrients from the soil slowly?. Nutrients can be used immediately like synthetic fertilizer. Please share your experience if you have more techniques.🙏🙏💚🥦 #Livingsoil #Notill

Day 19 from switch and look at them😍 been using the same nutrients/ same amount and they are loving it. Temps have been going great and buds are actually forming !

The Bruce Banner shows the first pre-flowering in Veg4. Plants are growing well but the size of the tent doesn't make it easy. The plants have already been switched to a 12/12 light cycle.

She is lookin like an identical twin to my first blackberry and I love it. I love this strain. As an avid gardener, it's a beautiful flower just to have on display. She is moving along better than the WCOG and BDM even though she is in the same soil. No smell yet but I expect that unforgettable deep berry smell to kick in next week. I fed her the above ratio of nutrients today,

The girls are growing up.

Hey guys, Like I said last week, this week was another cold rainy week. Discoverd some budrot on my Shamans, but not mayor problems. Therefore I decided to Harvest my Shamans at the end of this week. Knowing that in the upcomming weeks it will get even more colder, more rain and more bud rot. Luckly I only gave them water and one time with Humic-Blast and enzym+. Thats not a proper flush but better then full nutrients in the soil/plant. If it wasn't for the colder climate, i would had let them flower for another 1 to 2 weeks because they really started to thicken and the flowers were swelling. But at the end i rather have smokable buds then budrot buds,,, Weather for the upcomming week is 70% to 92% rain with 11-14 degrees Celcius and at night even 7-9 celcius. So there is no point by risking all of my buds to rot, in hope for some swelling which may never come with this colds The Critical Kushes where in their 4th week of flowering, going into the 5th. I have no other choice to keep them at least for another 2-4 weeks, lets see how it goes. I don't mind spending nutrients on maybe a lost cost. Somehow GD minimalize the videos after putting 10pictures on the diary, Just click on the next picture and click on the right arrow to go to the videos. See yall next week :)
