Day 28 and we are in flower !!!. The Purple monkey have really accelerated their growth this last week and have been building flowers for the past 3 days. They are all really healthy looking with nice strong limbs to support the upcoming fruits. There are 2 different phenotypes by the look of them with #3 being slightly different to the other 2 . I have been gently shaping them towards the pots edges without stunting their growth too much vertically. They are very long limbed from their stretching and the nodes lengths are a fairly medium distance from each other so won't be forming donkey di#$s buds but should have some very nice cluster buds with their overall indica leaning sides. At around 18 inches tall and still stretching, these girls could be great yielders. No signs of any issues at all with the addition of the sumo boost which will support the flowering cycle but won't stop the stretch as other boosters can do. this means I can use it from the start of flowering. Banana mash have spent the week stretching past rhe tries and opening up for light. They are a little behind the Monkey girls but are showing starts of flowers now. Their limbs are a lot less solid than the other strain too with a loose limbed appearance more like a bush. 2 of them have been set in a more splayed out mainline approach to keep them low and get the lowers into the canopy too .i have included some pics of the lst to show howbi did itThey have a lot of potential mains now that the apical dominance has been broken. hopefully a ring of buds should form on them both now. the #1 is more natural with a topping only to stop her getting too tall. She has some nice mains forming now too. The Mutant Banana is a really odd lady. she has so many growth tips close together in her bunched up appearance. She is starting to stretch now so will finish quite good I think. I have been growing out 2 seeds that came from previous grows of exotic strains. sadly the pollen "donated " came from another breeders strain but hit most of the crop on a couple of buds so gave me seeds. i am testing a couple out with this run so include them for their exotic connections. The mango cream X is doing brilliant and had to be supercropped over into an s shape to hold her down a little. def female so far and growing very quickly. The Exotic ? is just starting her real growth now but will be a squat lady by the look of her so far. no idea which she is but will be an interesting grow out for fun. The fact that one went into flowering already is a good sign of an auto genetic at least. So there we have it growmies another week done and exciting times ahead in flower. be a safe and well.

I'm like 5 days late with this update so I have had to pin videos that I took the same week while I was communicating with TRYHARD so ignore any dialogue that's out of context they aren't diary logs they are simply correspondence between myself And TRY, oh and sorry about my language I'm common as muck me. The pictures are just random pics I took that week as oppose to my usual more organised method but hey ho I'll do a more tidy job next week. The week went swimmingly barring some nitrogen deff on the lowers which I initially put down to the hot weather drying the pots too quickly and causing nute lockout with the salt buildup so I flushed then gave them a nice feed after they dried the pot at which point I noticed the most heavily afflicted by the N deff were also the quickest drinkers and had lower EC on the runoff so I have been giving them a slightly stronger feed than the others and it seems to have solved everything so I'm happy with that. Bud development is nice, frost is nice, terps are through the roof right now..... Zkittlez ones are really stinking of lime and candy bubblegum Punch ones are stinking berry berry nice! Grandpas Crush is smelling kinda hazey right now but I'm hoping the berries comes out of her too. Little else to report really. Thanks for reading One Love ๐Ÿ’š Fire Farmer๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐ŸŒพ

Looking ok stretched alot so had to add some caines to support the buds. Done quite alot of defolatin as ther were just many leaves covering bud sites and only using 1 600w so have spaced closer together for more light. Still feeding them doff tomatoe feed and had no signs stress. Goin to add some pk next feed.Had some fkin heat so plants have alittle heat burn so had to higher light alittle also alittle wind burn Owell updates to follow

Day late on the update, pics/vids were taken on time tho just been a crazy week of harvests and trimming and keeping up with these. I transplanted all of them into 1 gallon bags 4 days ago from today. I linked up with Rain Science Grow Bags on Instagram and got them to offer all my followers and friends a discount of 10% off entire order from their site with the code ' bangdang ' so if anyone is in the market for a pot upgrade use that code. I got them in the mail 3 days after I ordered. Reason I went with Rain Science is because they offer identical air flow for rapid growth as the radicle bags, just using a different material and a tighter knit so water doesnt flood out the sides during feeds and when you pick these up when the coco is dry, it wont fly all over the tent like with the radicles. They're the optimal bag for autoflowers especially.

4/7 Day 31 (AM) - Things have been going relatively well over the last several days, with the exception of the one plant that has been unhappy throughout the grow. I did some light pruning to remove brown/dying fan leaves from the struggling plant but have otherwise been focused on tucking leaves under future bud sites, and keeping an eye on the two that were topped late in week 4, both of which are sending out new shoots. All seem to want nutrients now. I've been very light-handed with the nutrients but started giving them small amounts at least every other watering. At week five it feels like a lot of things are on autopilot now, just normal maintenance like topping off the humidifier and occasionally poking my head in to check on things. Glad I didn't abandon the sickly plant. New growth looks healthy, and it just might pull through. Update (4/8- Day 32 AM): Feeding was very well received by all plants. It's taking some getting used to. I tend to use very little in the way of fertilizer (have read too many horror stories). Still, these guys are showing signs of being hungry on a regular basis, and their daily uptake of water is considerably more than when I started. For the time being, I have been using about 50% of the recommended amount of FF Grow Big, close to a normal recommended amount of CalMag, and about 50% of the recommended amount of P-K (due to deficiencies noted in some leaf margins). I've been testing the runoff and it's coming out between 6.5-6.6 consistently. No signs of drooping or overwatering. Right now, they appear to be happy if watered about every other day, and they're taking on about 1/2 gallon each pretty consistently. Next time I'll probably use nothing but pH adjusted water, just to avoid nutrient build-up.

Sorry I havenโ€™t been posting to much been crazy busy but hereโ€™s an update of my grow using the sp 150 by @marshydro_official2 , ladies are loving it and are very happy besides the obvious heat problem I have going on in my tent. I have slowly been getting the temps of the tent down and hopefully the ladies bounce back up , they have all entered flower and Iโ€™m pumped to watch them bulk up ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ˜ I have purple punch , stardawg , strawberry cheese cake, and a pink kush Cbd . I have also just started a couple GSC and one is showing some crazy mutations as a seedling already ๐Ÿคฏ

Apr 09: Things are chuggin along, i think light may have been a factor in the brown spots, seeing similar symptoms on one of the other plants but very very minor in comparison.... I think it was too little calmag, i may have locked them out mid veg by using high concentration of nutes without watering till runoff (i now know, that is a no-go), and light stress. i have had them under 850-1050 ppfd when flipped to flower... one of them is loving the light, one is big and bushy (had to defoliate later than i wanted), and one has good bud structure but pistils seem thin, and growth seems slower (the one with the brown polkadot party on its body) so thinking it may be stunted. either way, im seeing denser buds, and im learning the ropes, thats enough for me :) Apr 12: Last feed day... Trichomes look just about ready, will do 2 runoff waterings 48hrs apart, then 24-36 hr darkness... Will try to post trichome pics.... Super excited to see the improvements from this run vs last run...!

Ran into a lot of problems this week unfortunately. Some of buds developed a fungus(botrytis). Don't know how to stop this as I'm growing outdoors. Nevertheless, the buds that are clean are growing nicely. Hopefully into the home stretch of the grow now.

By coincidence the video is perfectly timed. I didnโ€™t plan for that, but Iโ€™m proud of the timing now๐Ÿ˜‚ For my climate density and size were fine. Planted her a bit late. Withstood all weather conditions without shelter or special care, some mild pest infections. As it was a cutting I can't tell about original structure, but even the cutting looked like "from seed" with a nice christmas tree optic (with a little lst). Big buds stay as they are, smaller are going to be pressed or bubbled. ~7-10d drying ~1 month curing - update. Update for end of contest, some dry picture + 7 of x days curing. Already very sweet and fruity. (Nicer) Smellier than my other outdoors. 30g very fine buds and don't know how much trim + popcorn. Anyway .. harsh conditions + survivor + no mold. Most important properties for my outdoor location. ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ’ช Let it grow!๐Ÿ˜

Took pics ๐Ÿ“ธ 14.02.25(VW11) increased GreenBuzzBloom to 70ml from 60ml. 19.02.25(VW11) Flowering pretty well, did what I hope is the last cleanup and defoliation, I spread her out a bit more as well. 27.02.25(FW2) By the end of this week do another defoliation, damn she is bushy. 28.02.25(FW2) drop TriPartMicro to 40ml from 50ml, increase GreenBuzzBloom to 80ml from 70ml 01.03.25(FW2) Noticed some minimal burnt tips so I added about 4l of clean water from dehumidifier and drier to my nutrient solution. 08.03.25(FW3) Dropped TriPartMicro to 20ml from 40ml, added 20ml of TriPartBloom, dropped Calmag to 40ml from 60ml. 14.03.25(FW4) Dropped TriPartMicro to 0ml from 20ml, increased TriPartBloom to 40ml from 20ml, dropped GreenBuzzBloom to 50ml from 80ml. 20.03.25(FW4) Dropped GreenBuzzBloom to 20ml from 50ml. 29.03.2025(FW6) decreasing all the nutes by 50% including Calmag. ๐Ÿ’ญโ—๐Ÿ’ญ โ—๐Ÿ’ญโ—๐Ÿ’ญโ—๐Ÿ’ญโ—๐Ÿ’ญโ—๐Ÿ’ญ ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ ๐ŸŒผDay to day tasks & actions๐ŸŒผ ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ 27.03.25(FW5) fed with (*1) 5l ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ ๐Ÿ’ฆNutrients in 30l(*1) ๐Ÿ’ฆ ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐ŸถTriPartMicro:15ml*20ml*40ml*60ml*70ml*50ml*40ml*20ml*0ml TriPartBloom: 0ml*20ml*40ml*20ml*40ml*20ml Fermented๐ŸŒฟjuice:0ml GreenBuzzBloom: 15ml*20ml*30ml*60ml*70ml*80ml*50ml*20ml*10ml Cal-Mag: 60ml*40ml*20ml buxXtrade citric acid Ph- ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ โš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธ โœ‚๏ธTools & equipment โœ‚๏ธ โš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธ โœ‚๏ธโžก๏ธ2xMarsHydroSP3000 โš™๏ธโžก๏ธMarsHydro150mmVentilatorACF โœ‚๏ธโžก๏ธTrotec (big) dehumidifier โš™๏ธโžก๏ธSmall no name dehumidifier โœ‚๏ธโžก๏ธKebab stainless skewers 3 (LST) โš™๏ธโžก๏ธwire+roast beefskewers(LST) โœ‚๏ธโžก๏ธtrimming scissors.(HST) โš™๏ธโžก๏ธWaterproof vacuum cleaner for โœ‚๏ธspills. โš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธ ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿญ CandyCreamGoFastKANNABIA ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿฌ Species:70%Indica+- 30%Sativa+- Indica Cream x Auto Indica Cream Flowering period: Short Yield:High Scent:Low Seed:Feminized Effect:Relaxing THC:20 % Features:For beginners, Good for extractions, Moisture resistant,Pest resistant Flavor:Sweet Complete cycle:46-49 days Indoor Average height:180cm Yield:550 gr/m2 Outdoor Average height:180cm Yield:600 gr/plant ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒˆ

Die Blue Dream hat sich zu einem wahren Monster entwickelt. Der Sativa Einschlag drรผckt richtig durch, so langsam hรถrt der Stretch aber auf. Die Blรผtenansรคtze und Stigman sind richtig dick und breit, was ich zuvor bei noch keiner Sorte so stark wahrgenommen habe. Die Interniodenabstรคnde verkรผrzen sich nach oben nun wieder etwas. Der Geruch ist bisher eher erdig, wรผrzig, hazeig. Ich bin sehr gespannt wie die weitere Entwicklung verlรคuft.

Welcome to the beginning of week nine. She is filling in nicely runs appear to be minimal. She is listed as a 65-70 day strain by Ripper. As I said before this was grown from seeds obtained by letting Rippers Acid Dough go to seed (see my first grow diary for details). Since she pollinated herself they are S1 seeds and of course feminized since no male plant was used.
