5/25 - Last entry just for completeness since she was technically still alive and kicking on this day. Added a bunch of pics and a vid prior to her chop, which was the night of 5/26 (pics for that will come after she's trimmed). I think she might yield even more than Helen, but we'll see. I can't say enough how fun this entire process has been, and I'm already feeling like an empty-nester without them. Definitely planning to start another grow (Mephisto Double Grape! and maybe another??) in a few weeks, but also thinking of adding additional electricity/outlets first. Not too much else to say here since I haven't been checking pH/ppm since I started "flushing" (my least favorite part of growing lol). I'm drying out a Heather tester bud I accidentally clipped when chopping her, and I'm excited to compare the effects to Helen (which I have been enjoying immensely!!)

Alaskan Purple Auto is growing great under the Medic Grow Mini Sun-2. She got a solution change today that is geared towards blooming. She also had a selective defoliation done to make sure cola sites are getting good light. She has been stacking, and getting ready to start bulking soon. Everything is looking good. She did start to show some potassium deficiency is why I changed the solution. It was also due. 🤞🏻 I didn't juice her too much on the change. Thank you Seedsman, and Medic Grow. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

Muy buenas, otra semana más por aquí! Pues ya está la floración bien encaminada para el éxito!🙏 Esta semana le hemos dado la máxima dosis del fertilizante Basis, y le hemos subido también la dosis del C4. Ya han empezado a mostrar sus lindos aromas, y a cambiar un poco el tono de sus hojas. Un saludo y buenos humos!👋

Very variable weather, summer is at the end, temperature drops quickly, even 60 °F. I was out for 3 days, on my return I found the three girls who were starting to wither but they were promptly watered. No damage to report. The yellowing of the lower canopy has started. Acceptable weather forecast until 10 September. I bought 5 transparent PCV tarps to protect them extemporaneously from the rain. Stigmas are all formed, very vigorous bud structure. This beast still shows some signs of K deficiency despite feeding her regularly. For now, the nutrients are barely enough to stabilize the typical leaf discoloration. Gonna double the dose. Critters avoid her like the plague. Expected harvest time october 1st/2nd week.

How is it growing, my fun(k) loving friends? ***INFO*** For more on my setup, why it was monster cropped, and how I made the canopy, see Germination page and subsequent weeks. They had 48 hrs of darkness, and the time has come to say goodbye to my friends. I thanked them again, spend some time with them, and under the sound of Amazonian shaman's harvest and healing songs (will post link), asked for their gifts, and apologized for taking their lives. I do this while in contact with the plants, touching, smelling them, observing every detail, no thoughts, just in the present moment. I feel emotional as I do this and remember how they were a companion, a source of distraction in a time of worry, sadness, and loss. How they already comforted me and kept me company in a time of painful insights about honesty, commitment, and staying true to myself. I thank them again for their wisdom and gifts, viva Santa Maria, viva Planta Maestra, may the mother of all beings give us healing and protection. And I proceed with the harvest as I visualize my intentions with every cut. Branch by bud laden branch is tenderly untangled from the scrog net, taken with a clean-cut and immediately hung upside down in the grow tent, which will now double as a curing and drying room. A couple more weeks and we will have the final cured and dried weight. More photos and movies will follow, this is where we are so far!! Thank you for checking in on our journey, all the love, support, and compliments were a true motivation, a very needed distraction, and guidance for me and for Sunshine. Big hug, lots of love and take care! ***UPDATE*** The final weigh-in is ready. I hadn't seen them in a week, because of my vacation. The humidifier I set up, had failed. So the grow had dried in 7 days, what I wanted to be 14 at least. Thankfully, its Sativa ancestry shines through, the smoke isn't harsh, the buds a sticky and smelly, no hay smell at all. We ended up at 246 grams, excluding a shitload of larf and popcorn bud, totaling at 310 grams all in, a first at a gram per watt for me, but for the Zambeza seed competition, I stated we would only weigh the quality bud. Overall I'm very happy!! Guessed weights in the competition: - @hashy : 0 grams - @MrHyde : 198 grams - @JamMAKEcan : 224 grams - @TrickOrTrip : 260 grams - @Greeneysgrow: 312.5 grams - @Ohey_fu_kyu: 350 grams - @Puffs4Pipes: 385 grams - @Hempkid : 605 grams - @DoDrugs420 : 621 grams TrickorTrip was closest!! Congratulations!!! I will be contacting you to get the seeds with you!! Thanks for playing to all the others and better luck next time, I will give away some seeds again!! Summary: Cost of setup: 850 euro Cost of nutrients and soil: 125 euro Cost of seeds: None they were cloned Cost of power: 150 euros in the power bill Total cost: 1125,-- for setup and this run. I smoke for medical reasons and it's used for ritual and healing purposes, never to be sold, as it loses its magical properties. Should I have to buy Gelato of this quality at the dispensary that I frequent, it would cost me at least € 15,-- per gram. 246 x 15 = 3690 euros. also, 49 car rides of 25 miles there and back, 250 euros in gas saved. Overall conclusion: I think we can call this a succes. Made back my investment, my cost per grow and we saved the environment. Thanks for all the love, tips and support! Couldnt have done this on my first indoor LED grow, without you!! Wish you were here to smoke a fat one, some good conversation about our hobby and now... I'm hungry.... See you on the next one!!

Final update: Very happy to announce that this dairy had won the sixth place best diary of August 2021. My prize came in yesterday and I'm very happy!! Thank you Growdiaries!! Thank you Fastbuds!!! Thank you all my grow buddies here for the love and support!! Hope to see you all, maybe at a future Growdiaries Meet and Greet? Wouldn't that be a lovely idea, per country and a yearly one on a different continent every year? The Growdiaries Conference. Would be a great Hemp growers fair... I'll keep dreaming and light another one... Big hug BioBuds

Hi people! I have nothing special to say. you can see everything in the photo! and all this can be summed up in one word! Perfect! it begins to show dark colors in buds, as well as on large leaves from the stem. in the photo this is not yet noticeable, but the eye already sees the manifestations of genetics! and I think that further it will only become more beautiful and more colorful!

She is chopped at day 56 from pistils. I think its top 3 maybe best trichomes production what ive grew. Very beauty lady with nice orange hairs appearing behind glitter. Not big buds, lets say pretty small sized but quality over quantity. Smell is like orange/mandarin with sourness from citrus. Better information in harvest report when dried and tested!

respectable auto strain with a reasonable yield. tolerant of nutrients and not finicky for a sativa. I think this is a lemon haze but can’t say for certain. hang dry whole plant for a week, spot trim and then cure for 2-4 weeks, monitoring the RH in jars from 65% down to 55% for a solid cure.

FBT2402 had a ph issue, and I got some spots on the leaves. I did not have her solution strong enough, and it jumped up on me. It's fixed now, and stable. Beside that she is starting to stack her colas. Hopefully I get a few ounces from her.

We finally arrived at the flowering of the 5 plants. # B3 presents some type of blockage, which is still very early in flowering. Despite the tragic accident with # B5 the buds' formation is going very well she still showed signs of phosphorus deficiency despite using both FloraBloom and Liquid KoolBloom in the next irrigation I will try to leave the PH in 6.4 since as I researched the phosphorus is better absorbed with soil pH between 6.2 and 6.7. The other plants are doing well and do not have the same deficiencies. This week I released the LST and applied defoliation on some leaves to favor the light on the apical buds where buds are forming. Updating with 55 days # B3 already has some white pistils but the buds did not start to form. I begin to think that it is a photoperiod.

Very nice grow and harvest. FastBuds certainly lived up to its name as she finished in 55 days. Unbelievably dense and fat colas that had packed on the weight due to the Nectar for the Gods nutrients. 0

Stretch hat sich verlangsamt und die Blütenbildung schreitet rasant voran. Sie fängt auch an zu duften und zu funkeln und wird täglich schöner 😍

Well, looks like autumn is here, so I’m starting the flush. The next waterings will be plain water at 260 ppm — pretty much the lowest I can get without extra cost. Upd: I was trying to understand the plant through the readings, but due to my lack of experience, I still kept bouncing back and forth with the ppm. That’s definitely not ideal. Next time I’ll try to rely on both experience and the meters.
