Growth has been thriving in both tents and growth is better than ever! In the main tent, started the week off by flipping to 12/12 and have been mainly tucking and training all week. Also defoliated and lollipopped all phenos. Now the scrog netting is completely full of tops with the under canopy clean and healthy! In the veg garden, been mainly tending to basic clonal waterings. Also transplanted all mother cuttings into solo clear cups. Since growth has been getting quite tall, decided to top the garden to lower the canopy. Always more to do in the garden! Onwards to next week!

In the middle of the 5 week most of them show their sativa characters with long branches, now in the 6 week they are completely start flowering, more photos soon Today 14/05/2021 I will change the lamp bulb to a specific one for flowering (always 400w) and will experience the CalMag for the first time in 4 years, all I have learned was self taught and I have never used this product...in my opinion it was a big mistake, hope to have a positive result 🌋🏔️🌋🏔️💚💚💚💚

Jumped up a few feet idk yet but look like I got a winner here guys might be going in to flower idk

Same, same but different. First pre flowers showed up.

Fastberry Start: 27/5 Harvest: 1/8 I grow her 100% organic She grows very fast. Since i'm in the sub equatorial country, she buds quite early. The stretching takes place quickly for more than 1 week(x2.5). Buds grow rapidly within 6 weeks. The last week was really difficult when it rained for a week, but fortunately there was no sign of mold. It takes more week to dry. 25.5g dry is a good result for an auto strain that grows outdoors. THANKS FOR WATCHING.

October 1 > Harvest morning. New trick... get up before dawn... cut your plant down and hang her upside down... then go back to bed. Hehe... I like this retirement stuff. We get smarter as we age. 😎 I did a fair job of plucking fan leaves before harvest morning so there wasn't that much work for me to do anyway on this girl compared to some of the other monsters she grew up with. Took me only about 90 minutes to complete my normal processing and washing. She developed into a wonderful purple color at the end there. The unique feature of this grow for me was that I never topped this girl. Subsequently she developed a huge single top cola that grew about a foot taller than the rest of the plant. Served as a demonstration of why we top plants in general. Hard for me to imagine what a bunch of these in the wild looks like but this is what WILD looks like. Diary note > I'll come back later and add weights and things. I threw in a weight of 100 grams as a marker to appease the gods. Total guess. ======================================================================== October 7 > Guess I underestimated my yield a tad... love when that happens. 😁 Ended up coming in at 212 grams buds and 181 grams trim. Woohoo. Another growing season officially comes to a close today. 👌✊ Initially I wasn't sure I wanted to use the Trimbag on this baby... because she was my last plant to harvest this year and I had plenty of time to hand trim her... and I harbored various possibly incorrect assumptions about the Trimbag originally which I have now shed. More on that later. Let me lay out my personal Trimbag history here as a learning experience for the community... ======================================================================== Originally I won this tool as part of my September 2018 diary winnings... and I looked at it strictly as a tool for fairly large scale growers.. of which I did not consider myself at that time. I grew an amazingingly oversized Durban Poison for a 5 gallon pot and I got lucky I thought. ... Then I took a look at how much herb I processed this summer and I said THANK YOU Trimbag! It saved me more than enough hours of hand trimming to demonstrate it’s usefulness. (October 12) >> Already slowing down in post-harvest mode hehe... so it looks like I did the same thing as last year diary-wise. Now I have another Trimbag on my hands but all I need is another magnet actually (hehe)... the zippers show no signs of sticking up at this point after me throwing about 2-3 pounds of herb threw the mill, and the overall bag has only lightly been used at this point IMHO. I'm a little surprised I lost that magnet and it's not a great sign for the longevity of the embroidery - so to speak, but other than that it's solid construction. And simple. I’ll be contacting Trimbag to see if I can acquire a new magnet and we’ll see how that goes. Back to my expectations... I only used this device on stuff I grew outdoors... of which I had enough... more than twice what I grew last summer - but that was by design. If I was to set out a general rule… I would say that I expect the weight of buds to be roughly equal to the weight of trim. This is AFTER I have thrown away any fan leaves plucked on the morning of harvest which are not saved as trim. I stop plucking when buds start to get ripped up if I don’t. Round 1 >> The first go was the early Amnesia 7 batch (Little Girl flowered early), and honestly, I was unimpressed. I looked at it as maybe I didn't let it dry long enough. I have a ritual of washing all my outdoor grown herb which has generally tended to cause things to dry a tad quicker than what one would expect in the field. I walked away from this initial experience like boy I hope I screwed that up and it works better on round 2. Round 2 >> Cream & Cheese CBD ... I think this girl did more to confuse me than anything else. The buds were not oversized but she seemed to take forever to dry. Part of this is probably attributable to excess humidity in the first few days - a weird week - we actually had some rain which is very unusual. But even after a week of drying I only managed 63g of shake on this batch (via the Trimbag). I'm going WTF? Ahem.... I ended up with 269 grams of buds for my Cream & Cheese. After that 63 g shake by bag I added 165 g trim by hand... and I was seriously wondering why this bag thang existed. Turns out C&C was not a good example.... so don't let the bad things weigh you down. Round 3 >> Next came Northern Lights - and my attitude changed completely. I harvested 319g buds, but the initial run with Trimbag generated 144g trim which I followed with 186g hand trim. NL had very dense buds and large internodal spacing which made trimming EZ. She was a monster… but at the same time I had her trimmed in under 4 hours. Of all the beasties I grew outdoors this summer, this was the largest yield for a single plant - but trimming her was a relative breeze, and it felt like it. I thought I hit the sweet spot for maybe how dry the herb needed to be for the product to work well… but probably only partially correct. Plant structure is significant. Round 4 >> Next came round 2 with Amnesia. As I noted in my diary I knew I was going to end up with a pound of herb on this particular strain so I tried to beat this particular batch up to minimize my hand trimming and see what the effect was. The end result of this was that I generated a smaller amount of buds from the larger sized pot (Little Girl was in a 10 gallon container and generated 235g buds/ 360g trim and Big Girl was in a 15 gallon container that generated 223g buds/ 493g trim). Round 5 >> Next came where we’re at in this here diary…Purple Berry Kush. Now originally I wasn’t sure I wanted to run this baby thru the mill. I THOUGHT that maybe because I hadn’t topped this girl and I didn’t put her in a pot bigger than 7 gallons which put her at a direct disadvantage vs my other outdoor girls that the yield would be substantially smaller, but I’ll be damned she ended up with 212g buds. Very satisfied there… and this stuff smells great when I let her get some air. The key here on trimming for this round was twofold. I let the buds dry longer than I normally would have by a few days… because I had nothing pushing me to make space for reason A… and because stuff was intervening for reason B… golf tournament… Hardly Strictly Bluegrass in SF (Robert Plant was awesome - we share the same birthday and he was 71 in August - I can only hope I’m still rockin’ that hard in 9 years)…you know - stuff. PBK ended up working out the best of all. 212g buds vs 181g trim. That’s the ONLY variant that ended up with more buds than trim. Part of that was how easy PBK was to maintain. I only did ONE major pruning of internal growth - probably later than I should have - I was trying hard to let her grow as wild as possible. But she was very easy to prune fan leaves off when that purple time came. It’s seems clear at this point that indica’s are easier to trim than sativa’s with a Trimbag…. but I’m not sure that’s going to be a revelation to anyone. As far as I’m concerned, anything that grows with an inter-nodal spacing that allows you to neatly separate your buds will work better with the Trimbag. DRY is a necessary ingredient for using this device. Probably drier than I am accustomed to… but that’s why somebody invented Boveda packs right? Anyway… I’m a VERY SATISFIED Trimbag customer at this point. It takes a little work to determine how dry your herb needs to be but even if you have to experiment, the number of hours you save from hand trimming will eventually make it worth your while… and as a newly minted senior citizen I can say that while my time might be free - anything that helps reduce pain - including time spent trimming - becomes quite significant. NOW —> The other side of this coin is that I will probably NOT use the Trimbag when I get back to indoor growing in early December… because I expect to be growing much smaller plants. Most of the things I’ve grown indoors top out at less than a couple ounces so it’s not clear to me that Trimbag is necessary with a yield that small… but I can test that theory later this winter. ================================================= hehe… I kinda promised myself “no more winter crops” after last summers bounty but I found that making edibles consumes a significant quantity of herb, and I really like my brownies. So now that I’ve stocked up to solve that problem, I plan to get back to some indoor growing (because growing is FUN)… mainly autoflowers. I actually have better control of temperature for things that I grow in winter as opposed to summer… but I have to add the heat to make that happen. That compares with the difficulty of adequate cooling if I run my lights during daytime in summer - even with night lights summer temps can be a problem with no AC. I don’t have AC in my house. It’s a function of California microclimates. If I lived 15 miles east of here - we’d BAKE with no AC (air conditioning). If it weren’t for coastal fog - this whole place would be a desert. With climate change - we’re heading that way even WITH the fog. We roll the dice here every winter and hope we get enough snow in the Sierra to hold off the firestorms that will come in the fall. We went thru a period of “drought” here in California a relatively short while back but even though we are officially out of our drought phase the fall firestorm intensity seems to be getting worse every year. But this is a clear sign I’ve consumed too much indica for one evening and I’m starting to lose track of.... just about everything. Anyhow… I think I’m about diaried out for this year. I have a pretty freaking serious vacation planned to celebrate my retirement for late next month… Las Vegas golf > Joshua Tree National Park camping > Palm Desert resort golf > Beach camping South Carlsbad > Torrey Pines golf > Laguna Beach > Pismo Beach camping > Monterey. It’s been about 30 years since I did anything this crazy (and that was a Grateful Dead tour in 1987 thru Arizona/Utah/California for my 30th birthday). Big difference this time around? Cannabis is LEGAL for the entire trip. I will be well stocked enough to sedate anything that gets near me. See y’all in December. 😎

Schönen Sonntag und 3. Advent euch =) ! 🌱 Wochenupdate Die Woche lief mal ohne Drama, zum Glück =D Ich habe kurz nach dem Stretch alle Maßnahmen eingeleitet, um das Canopy sauber zu formen. Die ersten sanften Klima-Anpassungen sind erfolgt, und wir bewegen uns auf die Blüte zu – aaaaw yeeeah =D Wie ich ja bereits erwähnt hatte, wollte ich nach dem Sonden-Fix erst einmal visuell beurteilen, wann der Stretch wirklich vorbei ist und wir final auf die Meshes sortieren 😊. Die Sonde läuft inzwischen wieder zuverlässig, aber zu diesem Zeitpunkt konnte ich mich darauf leider noch nicht voll verlassen … Ich habe also noch einen weiteren Tag trainiert und bei jeder Kontrolle darauf geachtet, wie weit sie über das Netz drüber sind und ob es sich dabei um echten Stretch oder nur um Rebound vom Runtertrainieren handelt =) Dienstag hatte ich dann deutliche Anzeichen, dass wir endlich durch sind 😄 Ab hier habe ich jeden potenziellen Trieb auf ein Mesh verteilt und die, die etwas zu weit waren oder noch gebogen ins Netz zurückgeholt 😁. Als das Canopy „locked“ war, habe ich ihnen erst mal ein wenig Ruhe gegönnt. Da ich nach 12 h kein Zeichen von Stagnation durch Stretch-Erholung und Umverteilung feststellen konnte, konnte ich es nicht lassen und habe das komplette Canopy defoliert =D Der Gedanke dahinter war einfach, so früh wie möglich viel Licht an die jungen Budsides zu bekommen 😄 Jedes Blatt, das Schatten geworfen hat oder keinen direkten Nutzen hatte, wurde entfernt =) Sie haben es mir direkt bei der nächsten Kontrolle gedankt 😁 Hier habe ich dann das erste Mal echt mit mir gehadert. Die Frage war, ob ich jetzt nach Lehrbuch fahre und ihnen ein paar Tage Ruhe gebe oder ob ich direkt weiter im Programm mache und die Under-Canopy-Defo hinterherschiebe. Es wäre schon ein Traum, direkt zu Beginn vom Aufbau einen guten Energiefluss zu haben =D Die Ladys standen absolut vital und haben förmlich dazu eingeladen … also habe ich natürlich direkt durchgezogen und direkt unter dem Netz defoliert =D Hier wurden alle Spaghetti-Triebe und alles, was nicht oben im Netz angekommen war oder kein echtes Potenzial hatte, entfernt. Alles, was geht, soll ohne Umwege in die Tops gehen. Und bitte kein Popcorn =D =D Anschließend habe ich noch die Luftzirkulation angepasst, damit unter dem Netz wieder ein schöner Luftstrom entsteht =) Man sieht sogar wieder, welche Pflanze welche ist =D ! Jetzt geht’s auf in die Blüte – bin gespannt, wie es weitergeht 😊 🌱 Pflanzenstatus & Training Alle machen sich gut =) Bei Notorious habe ich das Gefühl, sie stretcht deutlich buschiger als die anderen – sehr viele brauchbare Triebe, wirklich eine tolle Scrog-Plant 😁. Bei Purpz ist mein Eindruck, dass sie deutlich mehr versucht hat, nach oben zu kommen. Hier muss man wirklich hinterher sein, wenn man sie sauber scroggen möchte. Blueberry Cupcake – absoluter Performer 😄, damit habe ich aber auch schon gerechnet bei dem, was ich über die Genetik gelesen und gehört habe =) Zu guter Letzt das Sorgenkind Guzzlerz: Hier wird auf jeden Fall noch mal was kommen in Zukunft. Leider hatte ich massive Probleme mit der Keimrate. Die einzige, die aufgegangen ist, ist schon mit einem Keimblatt zu wenig ins Rennen gestartet und konnte einfach nicht so gut hinterherkommen. Trotzdem füllt sie eine kleine Ecke im Netz und sieht auch sonst im Vergleich top aus 😄 – nur eben kleiner. Da werde ich auf jeden Fall noch mal testen, wie ein guter Seed performt 😊 ⚙️ System Nach wie vor selbes Vorgehen mit Top-Ups =) Aktuell brauchen die Ladys deutlich mehr Wasser als Nährstoffe, weil nach der Defo und dem Canopy-Sorting der Wasserverbrauch durch die Auxin-Umverteilung und die erhöhte Transpiration deutlich ansteigt =) 1,1 kPa VPD 700–800 ppm CO₂ im Durchschnitt EC der Lösung wurde auf 1,9 EC erhöht 1000 PPFD Vielen Dank mal wieder fürs Lesen und die Anteilnahme, nur liebe für euch =) Eine schöne Woche =)

June 14: this Sunday Punch EV is a very fast growing plant that can handle some cool weather. The ruderalis genetics from the autoflower used to create this fast flowering (Early Version) add some toughness that make it well suited to short season areas. Likes to stretch too. 😎 it was to be a 16 cola manifold but it has grown so fast i realized I can also match another 8 colas from the next lower node. So i did that final round of topping this morning and we’ll see how it goes. Added second layer of Scrog net to stabilize it and keep the fan leaves from shading the growth tips. June 15: did the weekly foliar spray with Extreme Blend this morning. Rained last couple days which cleared the air of smoke and now it’s a nice sunny Sunday.

Very vigorous growth over the past week and has responded very well to LST. Very full plant. Watered in a Compost Extraction once again this week, which all my plants respond well too. Another week down and bot much more to say, as usual. Plants are doing their own thing, I'm just making sure she gets water when she needs it.

Didnt take a ton of photos this week. But flipped the light schedule to trigger flowering. The canopy has filled out beautifully. If i was more patient I would have vegged for a week or two more.

this week is going smooooth. Te fact that the temperatures went down turned out to be good cause it happened right at the end. Next time I water I'm going to flush 😁 then wait til the soil is a little dry (but before they look thirsty) 😁😁😁😁 im happy with this grow cause it was my first one so I can't complain. Next time I'll be more preventive towards pests 😬 and use cuttings to do clones too😁😁 they have an amazing smell. I think before harvest ill also give them 24 hrs of darkness to increase resin 😆😆😆😆😆😆

test for video uploads

still flushing 2 less hours of light

Week 7 Update I really love these Autos! They smell amazing 😍. So I think the purple pheno is have is a banana purple punch, it looks very much like one. You guys can let me know what you think. My Groilla Cookies is growing nicely, I can see she's fattening up. My other 2 to the back are starting to fatten up as well. They are about a week and some days behind. They started to flower late so I'm looking forward to seeing them fatten up. The Purple pheno will probably be the first to harvest. She's showing some fast growth compared to the others. See yall next week! Don't for get to use my code STLVDXW for an extra 15% off your next order at fast buds #fastbuds

Going good, still a bit of powdery mold. Spraying milk & water once a week. Slows the mold down but it comes back. Not too worried they're going outside within a few days. Gonna spray them again tonight just to make sure.
