Day 43 : Watering with co2 tab / 5L. Also added food again because i think they need it. Increased ppm to 850. Maybe the next one will be pure water. Ventilation works all the time when lights are on. Temp and humi are stable and this is good for the girls. 5 cm in 3 days. Patience is the key always. Also removed some burned leaves from all ladies. Edit (Day 47) : Watering with co2 tab every 5L. I watered with juices again at 850ppm because i felt that they need it. Only DsD drank pure water because of burns. Also 4cm in 4 days. She will be low yielder with good stuff. It smells sickkkk.

Last week the weather was really bad and it rained a lot. According to the weather forecast, it's supposed to rain a lot this week too. Let's hope for the best. ☀️☀️☀️

I can see this strain having a great yield and quality potential with consistent optimal conditions, but haven’t found it the most resistant to any nutrient and ph imbalance or fluctuations.

Super strain really easy to grow, nice taste. However she is not as strong as i thought but really great smoke and colours ! : 1:

Been a great week, not much to say on the dynomyco as it's early stages but im sure to see major improvement over the next week! I will say at this early stage though I do have alot of stable new growth so shows something is working in them roots but as for my females now, wow it's already shown it's work there as I used it on transfer and mixed Into the medium of the rear females so I'm impressed being a first time user! I will say i have learned alot about it following ari and the firebudz team on Instagram, so if anyone needs any pointers check them out they run classes too! Next one is Wednesday at 5pm PST very very educational growmies! Peace and love and stay tuned for greatness 💪🏽💯👊🏽💚

This is the final week right before the harvest. I am very pleased with the results. I am also glad that Spider Mite problems ceased once and for all with the harvest :)

This strain ive created was by accident but im proud to have it, it smells so sweeeeeet

Day 78 starting week 2 flower everything looks spot on apart from lower leafs yellowing which is normal will be defoliating leafs which are blocking lights and pruning all lower popcorn sites in the next day or 2 also as i stated on last weeks post my.ph pen maybe playing up because i couldnt get a replacement quick i had some advanced ph perfect nutes so giving that a go

Seems like the 75-85 day lifetime suggestion from fastbuds is on point and not a overstatement, (KEEP IN MIND THEY ARE FEED BY A DRIP SYSTEM FROM SAME WATER TANK / SAME NUTES) - pheno 1 chewed more nitrogen than her siblings since early on, she got a topleafs fade earlier than expected but she is forgiven because she is finishing crazy fast and feels like shes 2 weeks ahead of everyone else bonus point to her she smells strong and full of ice no matter the top fade, pheno 2 is doing avarage smells 100% same as pheno 1 but seems slower (no early fade full of trichomes too) - Pheno 3 🏅words cannot summon her up, she looks purple already and she smells like a elite photoperoid pheno hunt result, honestly id suggest fastbuds to ask me to cut a stem put it in a glass tube with gel and send it to them via mail to study or replicate her genetics if that is possible, i have never seen such absurdly 10/10 auto in my life, her smell is a John Jones punch in the nose, and not just me saying this ive shown it to my friends and they are shocked (keep in mind im a Berliner who is in toch with some of world LOUD hunter legends if yk yk) something was up with this pheno since sporut we dont know what that is but we want more of this one, she also loved the nute dose we gave her with zero problems . Pheno 4 is simmalar in smell with pheno 1 and 2 but her growth seems to be noticably slower she seems to be a bit behind id say 1 week, maybe because shes under the 6inch osculating fan and shes getting a bit less light she has 0 metabolism problems though so thats fine. Dont get me wrong pheno 1 2 and 4 smell strong and amazing too but miles away from pheno 3 and NO pheno 3 isnt a different strain put in the seed bag by mistake if you toch the stem 4 of the phenos have the exact same cherry cola smell pheno 3 is just the CHOSEN ONE.

Started slow but now is going well💚

Decent little stacks starting to form. Awesome aroma. Good frost production. At this point I was falling in love with the strain just due to its propensity to be grown under less than epic conditions. They took to the scrog nicely, despite the looseness of the trellis.

Commencing Week 7: day 43 on January 12th Today I left the dirty girls (I call them that because they are in soil 😋) out of the tent for their first time in their lives to hang out with some new girlfriends (my photoperiod s). They seem very happy to be hanging out with them 👍👍 The other day I took one of my personal photoperiod Crosses and pollinated one of the bottom flowers of the bloody skunk, hopefully seeds will be coming soon :-) Today I started thinking about how much longer they have left and it seems the bloody skunk is nearing the finish Line already. In the beginning of this diary I wanted to achieve the goal of getting some autoflower seeds by taking one of the syrup strains and cross breeding it but none of my syrups strains made it from seed for some reason. So now I'm thinking about taking the top bud off of bloody skunk in the next week or two and letting the rest of the plant go through rodelization so I may still achieve that goal. We shall see. Thanks for the great genetics everyone attention and support. Won't be long now till I actually get to do a harvest report 😎👍

All feeds with nutes use either a whole ratio or combination of "Veg Mix" and "Bloom Mix"concentrates DILUTED in water until a total ppm of add in is reached using a (Total Dissolved Solids)TDS Meter measured in PPM (parts per million). The "Veg Mix" concentrate will eventually be added in smaller ratios and "Bloom Mix" concentrate what will eventually replace the "Veg Mix" concentrate entirely with the ppm and ratios listed when I feed. Veg mix recipe is on week 3. Bloom Mix recipe is on week 5. Day 42 Morning check after defoliation. PH solution seems to be working! Almost no new spread of the issue/deficiency (regardless of what it was) Checked ppfd and got UL470, LL460, UR450, and LR440 over each of the colas. Temp/humidity steady still at 1.0 VPD 74F/63%RH/33% IL Vent scraped a little soil off the top to see that it's still really moist so I likely wont be feeding until tomorrow morning. Soil seems somewhat compacted, and ph readings were slightly lower, but still perfect in the safe zone 3 readings: 6.44,6.57, and 6.42 for avg 6.476 Day 43 Normal stats on VPD - same 74F/63%RH/33% IL Vent. ppfd over colas UL 490, LL 480, UR 470, LR 460 Still showing a slow progression of spots and yellowing on oldest leaves (like day 5 from initial occurrence, so very slow compared to past spread) I feel ph on a stressed plant was the biggest factor. Soil is still mostly damp to about an inch from the top but will be feeding tomorrow morning. Day 44 Normal status with VPD 1.0 - 74F/63%RH/33%ILVent -- ppfd (after dunk) UL490, LL480, UR470, LR460 Calibrated meters and tested - prepared feed water- started with 3.5 gallons of 274ppm de-chlorinated tap- used 500ppm of 80/20 veg/bloom mix, pinch of epsom salt and squirt of h2o2. Checked soil ph got 3 readings of 6.55, 6.65, 6.52 for avg of 6.573 so I ph balanced my feed to 6.3ish Weighed pot for reference and saw 13lbs 10oz- dunked pot for 10 secs, lifted and hung over drain container - recorded the stream and drip videos when I then replaced and checked ppfd again. Runoff showed 6.3ish ph and 2000 ppm (lower than my normal ppm of 2500 to 2600 my hypothesis is she's using them up so good time to feed) rare side view of main-line base included with end of process pictures. Did some LST with binds to train colas to position - I plan for 6 to be tied to ring and 2 in the center but at the same height by the time they grow past the support ring - I have them tied at the base of the first node and the pot - the center 2 colas are being trained too, but are tied off to the opposite side directly to the plant. looks like a hot mess for now - hopefully my vision will come through in a few days. Day 45 Morning check after extensive LST yesterday - VPD is all stable 74F/63%RH/33%ILVent - not taking ppfd readings as she's still under the ring and I seen these readings yesterday and the day before - I plan on taking ph readings later today, but for now this is what I got. Took ph readings - think I discovered hot spots of the woodash washing around the top - not detrimental since they are all with-in the range Im okay with (6 to 7) but worth note since I retested several times and got the same readings in these locations. also did a little more LST with slightly adjusting for level Day 46 vpd was normal 75F/64%RH/33%IL Vent - ppfd needed adjustment as the outside limbs were down to about 460 - so I moved the lights down to about 30 inches from 32 - and now the light measured 480 at lowest 490 around most limbs and the center is up to 530 - I will watch for light burn in that space other than that all seems normal today, binds are still holding as placed and tops are turned/growing. the previous stress and nute issues seem to be in hindsight now. Day 47 Soil ph was 6.54, 6.38, and 6.55 for an avg of 6.49 (last 2 readings were taken at yesterday's hot spot, seems to have cooled a bit now.) VPD normal with temps/humidity about 74F/63%RH/33%ILVent --defoliated today so ppfds were taken after that, outer ring showed lowest at 470, and most at 480 with highest 490, and center colas 500 and 510 Defoliation of 16 oldest leaves at first node where my ties are bound. I left the growth tips for last. the leaves showed what I hope to be the last of the ph issues scared on them... very much better than the last ones I took off LST of the branches to ensure that ties are still under the first node and level the tops with the ring as much as possible - I feel the better I get this part the less there will be any need for LST or HST later so, last thing - I topped again for 16 total colas - I might be reaching too far, but am also thinking ... 1st time gains experience that I can adjust later in future grows. Also removed the growth tips from the first nodes. So what's left? a single branch into 2 into 4 into 8 into 16 with all of the tops cut at the first node except the last set of tops were taken at the 2nd node and first was at the 3rd node - there are no growth tips or fan leaves between the roots and the 16 colas (hopefully providing all resources to those points only from this point on) fingers crossed it doesn't kill her and she recovers better than in past toppings. Day 48 The tent is a little hotter than usual so I increased ILVent to 50% and reduced the heater by 2 degrees. So far there doesnt seem to be any issue showing on the plant but dont want it to become one either. So I will monitor the temps throughout the day as well. ppfd was nearly same as yesterday with 470 as the lowest and mostly 480 to 490 around the ring with 510 and 520 in the center no signs of stress so far from yesterdays barber visit but keeping a close eye on the burnt tips from before - I suspect that if there's any place for stress to show up, that would be where to look first.

dia 48 - La planta sigue bien, empieza a estirarse como parte del proceso de floracion y ya ha sobrepasado la primera malla. Más adelante colocare la segunda que sera la que soporte el peso y forme las colas cargaditas de cogollo. Cuando coloque esta segunda malla aprovechare para hacer defoliacion de las hojas inferiores ya que no va a llegar la luz y al no haber ventilador se puede acum,ular humedad en esa zona y causar hongos

The Blackberry Moon Rocks are looking promising. One of them is growing into this beautiful little bush, and I think it's almost ready to harvest. The other plant is stacking up buds, but I'm thinking it's still a couple of weeks away. The past few weeks have been so beautiful, watching the plants grow and change. It's amazing how something so small and fragile can turn into something so strong and vibrant. Now that they're getting ready to bloom, it feels a little bittersweet. I'm so excited to see the finished product, but I'll definitely miss having them around while they're growing.

Die Gorilla Melon stand jetzt 2 Tage in absoluter Dunkelheit und wird heute nun geköpft und im ganzen komplett aufgehangen. Ich bin schon gespannt wie die Buds dann getrocknet aussehen.
