Beginning of week...
So the ladies are beginning to stack pistils at the crowns.. The Mandarin Cookies has been stacking a little quicker.. Thicker.. They both are showing purple tips on the stiples.. Not the pistils or leaves.. The stiples.. ETHOS Cookies has been showing that for ever now.. The Mandarin Cookies has just started showing these purple tipped stiples.. Gorgeous plants.. Even tho Mandarin Cookies is super freakishly tall and stretchy.. And the ETHOS Cookies is basically a runt.. Doesn't want to make ANY stems.. But plenty of leaves lol.. She should be able to hold up some super fat colas pretty easily tho so that's awesome! I stopped using the Armor Si and the FloraGro.. As well as the MYCO Plus (powder) stuff.. Also going down on the FloraMicro.. Just basically using 1 tsp/gallon of the CALiMAGic, FloraMicro, FloraBloom, and Kushie Kush.. 30 drops/gallon of the Floralicous Plus (not sure if that's too much to be honest).. 2 tsp/gallon of the FloraNectar Fruit-N-Fusion and last but not least... 2 mL/gallon of Hydroguard... *phew*.. Damn that's alot.. But that's alot less then what I was giving these girls... They should do alot better..
Mid week...
I have defoliated the ETHOS Cookies a bit more.. Mostly trying to make sure there is good airflow and no larfy producing branches in there.. She should produce some really nice colas with how short and stubby she is lol.. As for the Mandarin Cookies, I've just been supercropping the shit outta the really tall branches.. I've never supercropped a plant so much lol.. And I'm not good at it at all.. Most of the branches are split open, bruised.. Just very crappy looking.. It will heal, they always do 😂 I just hate hurting them like this.. Especially in flower.. But it's still pretty early in flower.. And the pistils are still exploding just as much as the non-supercropped branches.. I can't wait!!!...
End of week..
Both girls are exploding with trichomes! I love these super frosted strains! The ETHOS Cookies seems to be stackin calyxes faster than the Mandarin Cookies.. I can tell the ETHOS Cookies is gonna stack some fat ass colas! The ETHOS Cookies runoff is doing good.. pH going in is 6.2 - 6.3 and runoff is usually 6.0 - 6.2.. Foliage is nice and green.. She may be nitrogen sensitive deeper into flower.. Maybe not.. We shall see.. As for the Mandarin Cookies.. Wow.. This girl is super tall.. She is also stackin calyxes, pistils and nicely. The runoff is still giving me issues but as far as I can tell, she is accepting it and making the best of what she has. Going in pH is 6.2 - 6.3.. Runoff is coming out 5.6 - 5.7.. It's bothering the shit outta me! Lol.. It doesn't seem to matter what pH I put in, it will ALWAYS runoff at 5.6 - 5.7 pH.. But like I said.. She is accepting it as long as I keep the "in" pH in my preferred range.. I usually keep the "going in" pH at 6.1 - 6.3 the ENTIRE grow.. I always get great results doing this.. Its best for Calcium uptake and Calcium is a huge issue when it comes to growing in coco coir.. Anyways.. Both ladies are doing great.. Both look gorgeous and healthy.. Oh yeah!! I like to rub the trichomes to get a little idea of what the terpenes are gonna be like.. And hoooooly shit.. ETHOS Cookies smells like nothing I've ever smelled before.. I can't even begin to explain it.. Literally.. And the Mandarin Cookies is starting to give off a nice citrusy scent.. I hope this carbon filter is able to scrub the air enough.. Cuz if these are anything like the Early Lemon Berry, then yeah, this carbon filter is gonna be put thru the ultimate test lol.. Anyways.. On to the next week!....

This girl is quite a bit smellier than her blue toof sister. A bit more resinous as well. She got a tea last night that had a few inputs (grokashi, be1, be2, molasses, fish sh!t, Em1). She isn't gonna be big, but she is gonna be beautiful

Dear diary,
Week 2 done and on the books!
Everything went mostly fine up until the very end of the week were I noticed some strangeness with another one of the strains in the tent.
More info on that will be in my other diary for Gorilla Cookies and will be covered more overall in next weeks update as I try to fix any potential issues.
🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀
⏰ Day 11:
Calmag foliar applied 2 times during the day at 0.8ms and corrected ph to 6.3.
They also got their regular feeding at 1.27ms 6.4ph with me increasing the light to 250ppfd.
⏰ Day 12:
They were given a foliar and watering of calmag water at 1.13ms and 6.3ph early in the morning as issues had not cleared up.
Later in the evening they got a regular feeding at 1.41ms, 5.9ph and lights were increased to 275ppfd.
⏰ Day 13:
2 calmag foliars, gave feeding at 1.54ms 5.8ph and increased lights to 285ppfd
⏰ Day 14:
They have reached 3 nodes marking the end of seedling stage and beginning of veg!
They were fed with 1.53ms 5.8ph and four 3 liter airpots was prepped with 75/25 coco/perlite and watered with the same feed until runoff before transplanting.
As I can only grow four plants W.C #1 and #3 were selected as the final two.
Temps are around 26 and RH 75% with lights on and 24C 80% off.
Will be taking down the RH slightly over the coming few days to 65%.
⏰ Day 15:
Gave the girls a feeding at 1.57ms 5.6ph.
Also increased light to 305ppfd and they do look a bit droopy, but that’s not to surprising after the transplant.
⏰ Day 16:
Daily feeding at 6ph 1.59ms and increased light to 320 ppfd.
Aiming for 465 ppfd by the end of next week as that would move us up from 20 to 30 DLI.
⏰ Day 17:
Sprayed a foliar coat of Leaf Coat from Biobizz as prevention for pest in the morning.
For the evening they got their feeding at 1.58ms 6.2ph and foliar spray of calmag as a plant of the other strain in the tent is looking a bit odd.

Easy strain to grow. Responds well to training . Good yielder too .
I had a problem with the gorilla skittles plant. It went hermi in the last week. So i ended up trimming an ounce off her and using the rest for hash .
Gelato wasn't a great finisher either. Harvested around 2 ounce off her . Smoke is average but a nice fruity flavour. The alien Ogs were excellent though I will be definetly trying them again in the future . The high was just what I wanted . Strong but relaxing , you can either get really creative on this strain or you can giggle a lot . The after effects make you sleepy too so maybe a better mid day/night time smoke . Alien pheno 1 was super sticky with purple hues throughout the buds . Probably the best girl I've ever grown. Gave me 5 Oz of top quality . Next time I shall be going for all alien Ogs . It's an excellent strain.
Total weights
Alien og 2plants - 250g dried
Gelato 1 plant - 56g
Gorilla skittles 32g plus hash
334g dried buds . Not a great return from 480 watts. But I'm happy with how the alien og turned out.
I have decided to give some autos a go next as this one was a long grow for one of them to go hermi . So will be trying some Strawberry pies from Fast Buds . Happy growing 🌱

Start of week 4, Plants are starting their flowerdevelopment, defoiliation worked out pretty good, plants already started to fill out the gaps. expecting a full tent towards the end of the week.
Performing a dryback in the autopot system for the next 48h to stimulate the plant and get rid of excess salts in the medium.
the Clayballs really keep alot of moisture and it takes a while untill they stop providing water to the coco.
UPDATE DAY 25: My new rotatable KingBrite 480W Led Samsung LM301H EVO Osr 660nm 730nm Full Spectrum Led Grow Bar Light arrived and got installed. Upgrade from 300w to 480w!

Esa familia , ya va quedando menos para cortar estas hermanitas skunk de Zambezaseeds, tienen algo de sobre fertilización de las últimas semanas pero llevamos solo agua 2 semanas.
Ph regulado en 6,5 . Humedad por debajo del 40% , temperatura algo alta al trabajar con sodio pues en esta época sube vaya.
Así que esto tenemos y las flores se ven bastante compactas.
Nos vemos la semana que viene fumetillas.

After a comeback, the train is in the station! Even though I broke the main stem, she was an easy grow. I just basically let her do her with great results. Buds are thick and dense. Time for the drying and curing.

@FAST_BUDS,
Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries.
This is my second cultivation ever and it will be fun to try a bigger space than my closet grow.
First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom.
I put some pictures on the construction here in week one.
The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters.
It provides a floor area of 3.6 square meters.
I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps.
I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable environment in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside.
The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement.
Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement.
I will use 8 pcs 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition.
I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2017-09-18. Week 5 starts. Added new video. Girl Nr 1 is 46 cm high and Nr 2 is 33 cm.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2017-09-19. 2 new fans is installed in the grow room. Added pic and video.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2017-09-20. Kl 10.00. New video. The Nr1 girl is 52 cm high and Nr 2 is 32 cm.
Kl 23.00. Did some massive defoliation, added video and pics
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2017-09-22. The girls have recovered well after my massive defoliation. Girl number 1 is now 56 cm tall and number 2 is 35 cm. They have received 6 liters of water and nutrition today.

Everything has remained the same for these three girls. I have been alternating with two feedings and then just water. They are really blowing up at this point and I am just loving how they are going to fill this tent. There is one plant I haven’t topped that still has eight mains because I didn’t think she likes the dose of nutrients but it’s still the same height and recuperating just fine. Thanks for stopping by and happy growing!!!

After 5 days of drying, this little girl who was a little bigger than a meter gave 950 grams and a little bit of popcorn...this picking was 870 and a little bit of popcorn, and 4-5 weeks ago during a storm, one branch broke, which yielded about 100, but let's say 80 for sure, a total of 950 grams of beautiful, huge, potent buds

Die 8. Woche hat angefangen und die beiden Phänos sehen sehr gut aus. Die Buds werden immer dicker und riechen immer mehr und mehr. Die hellere von beiden ist im Geruch etwas schwächer finde ich. Die lila Farbende riecht extrem süß. Ich bin schon sehr gespannt wie sie riechen und schmecken, wenn die beiden bereit sind zum verzehren. Die Trichome sind schon fast alle Milchig, denke dass ich sie spätestens in 1 Woche ernten kann.
The 8th week has started and both phenotypes look very good. The buds are getting thicker and smell more and more. I think the lighter one of the two has a slightly weaker scent. The purple-colored one smells extremely sweet. I’m really curious to see how they will smell and taste when both are ready for consumption. The trichomes are almost all milky, so I think I can harvest them in about a week at the latest.

Day 57 - Starting week 9 and although she got 2 gallons of water yesterday, she’ll be ready for more tomorrow, she’s drinking like a fish right now. Other that that, I did a light defoliation today and will give her a day or two then do a little more. I wanna get some of these giant fan leaves off and out of the way.
Day 58 - Gave the girl 2 gallons of water and nutes today. She’s going through two gallons every 48 hours now, really drinking a ton. Other than that, just retucked the leaves and letting her be.
Day 59 - She’s stretching like crazy, almost 2 inches the last 24 hours. She’s gonna be a big girl for sure. Just got some updated pics today and tucked the leaves again.
Day 60 - Had to give the girl 2 gallons of water and nutes today but was just about out of my usual Advanced Nutrients so had to swap to what I had, Technaora Kit so we’ll see how she does with it. I’ve heard good things so I’m sure she’ll be fine. She’s getting big and starting to get cramped in the tent but not much I can do right now, just trying to get her to grow UP instead of out.
Day 62 - This girl just isn’t stopping, she’s huge and only getting bigger each day. She’s just about ready for water so she’ll get two gallons of plain pH’d water tomorrow. Just did a little leaf tucking with her and fit her back into the tent.
Day 63 - Ending week 9 today with 2 gallons of plain pH’d water. She’s starting to really develop buds and she’s smelling very sweet. Other than that, just got some updated pictures and tucked the leaves.
