ABxRKO is about 42.5" tall, and has been top dressed with about 3tsp of grow dots to give it a phosphorus boost in flower HBSS is about 26.5" tall and has been top dressed with about 2tsp grow dots as I believe it is fighting a phosphorus deficiency. She is giving all the smells, a bright red starburst like fruity smell with a stark citrus note.

The time is finally here to post the harvest. I waited till it was all done and dry before updating the dairy so will add in the dry weights next on the 2nd half of the harvest entry. Had some ups and downs with this plant. mainly the extreme yellowing that was happening. I should have treated this faster with a flush but was super reluctant and I feel this has suffered in the end. The top best looking buds could have been larger and the lower ones could have been thicker. There is some smells with this plant but they are not pronounced. Just smells like mild basic weed, this would be one reason not to grow it, however, the crystals on this plant have been the most I've ever grown before. When trimming them every time the scissors snipped or the brush stroked I saw some falling down onto the tray. This plant would be great for making hash. had a good little ball of finger hash at the end of it and will be giving that to my friends to smoke or make a strong edible with. I don't plan on growing this strain out again, the lack of smells and the fact I'm only trying to grow cbd dominate plants is the main reason. If my friends really like this I have some clones so can always give them some. Speaking of clones they are doing well outside, greened up a lot and showing signs of revegging. Took some photos of the weed hang drying on day 1 in the tent and a week later to show how much they shrink. most of the lower growth is quite larfy but will make good edibles or hash, that will be a fun project to do and may include that in my projects diary. That's about all I can think of if you have any questions just ask. m0use Disclaimers: 1. I have divided the total watts of light in half, 300w(150w) for this diary. It will accurately reflect the g/w ratio as the two plants growing in this tent are listed in two separate diaries. 2. I include any shake/trim in my gross totals as I use them to make edibles. 3. I did not follow any proper ways of listing my nutrients. Some are ml/l of total solution watered, others ml/l of total medium and some are just the total amounts I added, not as a ratio.

I converted the cents into dollar amounts beforehand to avoid dividing by 100. 8.2c/h = 0.082$/h 438h * 0.17c/kwh = $74.46kw * 0.15kw = $11.17 on peak 522h * 0.113c/kwh = $58.99kw *0.15kw = $8.85 mid peak 1,272h * 0.082c/kwh = $104.30kw *0.15kw = $15.65 off peak The "h" hours and "kw" kilowatts cancel out and we are left with a value of $ dollars per peak period, add all the peak periods up and you get your total cost of running the lights in dollars. $11.17 + $8.85 + $15.65 = $35.67 for the grow light only. My light grew for 20 weeks and 4 days, or 144 days. almost 21 weeks total. $35.67 / 144d = 0.2477$/d average of about 25c a day in electricity 337.2kw for the entire grow. Using the regular calculation of grams harvested divided by watts used is not accurate to me, it does not account for all the time the lamps are on, the length of grow to the over all cost. The calculation that makes sense to me is this, harvested dry weight of usable cannabis buds/trim/keif/whatever in grams divided by total kw used. Could also combine it with grams per total single use costs “anything you used only for this grow and wont reuse in the next, or fractions of multi use items like fertilizers if they ½ full” and see how much you’re investing per gram. "kw" ÷ "g" = kw/g "$" ÷ "g" = $/g I have harvested 5.34oz or 151.6g on 337.2kw. 337.2kw ÷151.6g = 2.22 kw/g of usable cannabis. This is not an ideal ratio for me and looks like a lot of energy waste happened from the extended veg period. $35.67 ÷ 151.6g = 0.24c/g It cost 24c/g when comparing total electricity cost to gross yield, almost identical to the comparison of total electrical cost to the number of days in the grow 25c/day. Neat! legend, kwh = kilowatt per hour kw = kilowatt w = watt h = hour c = cents $ = dollars d = day LED= Light Emitting Diode

Well I am coming up onto the end of week 6. Despite the ugly yellow gong on on one plant back there it seems to be doing ok. Not much saving those leaves but her trichomes are progressing all the same. Everyone else seems to be trucking right along as well. Added TPS Billions to the mix. Its kind of like Recharge but with trichoderma. Probably a little late in flower to be trialing that but it probably wont hurt.

Happy gardening. 07/21/2018 Wow unseasonably cold last night got down to 48° brrrr. No signs that the cold bothered the girls posting photos in a min.. And video. Phew took me awhile to upload. 07/24/2018 Mid week update Back to hot and, steamy summer weather. #1, tops are just about 39.5", going to try to get all super cropped to about 30", I expect that they will be double their size at harvest.👍. On a side note hours of light will soon be at 14.5 hope they initiate flowering,as it will give me almost 3 months of flower!👊 #2 is 43.5" looking like a Christmas tree,still some supercropping to spread out the lower layers. #3, is 35.5" And no training just picking her dead,yellowing leaves #4, is 41.5" also no training #5, is 30" , and still stinkiest 😎 of all gonna take a clone today.

Day 63 of growth, day 40-43 of flowering Big shoutouts all around🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼💯💯💯💚💚💚 My seed sponsors: @fast_buds and @atlasseed My friends at @seedsman for the amazing hookups from their line of 🔥🔥🔥 autos. Thanks to @aeromixer for allowing me to be an ambassador for them(I hope I'm doing at least half as good a job for them as their pump is for me😁) The girls absolutely love the Bar2400 from @sunraise I'm hopeful that it will keep up in the new 4x4. I also want to show appreciation to @sensorpushtech and @inkbird_us for helping me get my environment under control. Thank you🙏🏼 As many of you know, if you've followed along long enough, I'm a bit disabled and and even more broke💸😕 With that being said, sponsors and friends are a big part of the content I can bring to you. So I could not be more grateful for these people. But I'm also thankful for those of you who follow me and like my content, and show support that way. My deepest gratitude goes out to all of my supporters 🙏🏼💯💚🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼

Willkommen in der Käsemanufaktur, die letzten Tage stehen an. Die Trichome sind so gut wie alle milchig, etwa 1/3 der Trichome sind Bernstein. Es wird nur noch mäßig Wasser ohne Dünger gegeben. Die Pflanze hat ein wunderbares skunkiges Aroma entwickelt, am liebsten würde ich in einen Bud beißen :) Ich bin sehr auf den Ertrag gespannt, obwohl die Pflanze nur in einem 3L Airpot stand, sind sehr fette und harte Buds entstanden. Am Montag wird die Pflanze geerntet, dann gibt es ein Update und weitere Bilder.

6/ 1AM MONDAY Slowing down now, they look good. 6am light watt down to about 90W. Should be good for the last week of just water 5.7. Calibrated 3 pH meters 2 yellow pretty good. More expensive Orange VIVOSUN was garbage. Only buy cheap ones 6/3 238pm I might take them all down and re-use the dirt into a 3 gallon fabric pot because I have a Fsst Buds Gorilla Cookies that looks like she could be HUGE if I move her. These seemed to have maxed out. 7z is the most beautiful, she is like a fountain of champagne!!!!!! Frost Banger is leafy, not big buds, not much smell and Purple Haze has a really heavy smell I dont want to lose. I will get a little less than an ounce from each, pretty small harvest but this is still experimenting with smaller than usual pots, MABYE 2 GALLONS IS THE SWEET SPOT, I will try on the next grow. 6/4 230AM they are slowing down now. I could go for 1 month or 2 longer but I will lose flavor if I do. so JUST WATER from now on. Then chop and use the dirt from these 3 to plant one 3 gallon Gorilla Cookies from a parallel grow in Tent 1. 4am They seem to be at peak flavor......MUST NOT KEEP GOING..... I will chop this week. I want them to dry out, then a flush of just water to rinse the soil for the next grow. Now I prep the soil for the next grow. All into a 3 gallon fabric pot with G.C. From FAST BUDS, that has the most potential harvest with 100% re-used soil. Senysem and Tasty Terps will be the final since as they replace all enzymes and growth engines for the next plant. Im doing Elon fast turnaround rocket grows!! with robot grow tents!! 6/5 5am SENSIZYM 2mL L & TASTY TERPS 0.5mL L, 6.1PH. 🚨 Tent REDESIGN..... the surge protector is a source of heat, so are the USB adapters for the fans and cameras... MAYBE ....cut opening, move ALL electrical outside and feed usb cables through the arms then seal off... Cut through the tent or sting cables up the arms and cut the ducting, probably easier to cut a port in the ducting. 10am SENSIZYM TASTY TERPS One turns debris into simple sugars and TT eats the sugars and give a big boost of resin/flavor. 2L of water 4ML S. 1ml TT......PERFECT RATIO.... Using this mix was perfect timing. S will liquify debris TT will provide the amino acid/enzymes eating part. Beautiful response.. THEN I put the new light in and at the same watt too bright for the plants in there, I experienced at 93 watts and they are stressed....better luck next time.... goddmanit 6/6/2025 1222am New light to 90 plants on Custom built risers, 48oz cottage cheese containers from Ralphs work great, and double as a cleaning bucket....geenis the smart me are 6/7 520am they have peaked in flavor and I think they’re ready to be taken down. because of the soil bugs I don’t think it’s a good idea to reuse the soil. It seems pretty contaminated which is a real bummer and I don’t have the resources to rinse the soil in hydrogen peroxide and go through all the sterilization and I could just end up getting bugs all over the place or the egg something like that it will contaminate the room. It’s the reason I do not grow food or other plants in the medical marijuana room I also use that room as a filter for the house. The 6 dust & 3 carbon filters are on all the time so I always have one room that has some very clean air. I can’t spend a lot cause it’s not good for your human body to be an sterile environment like that for too long & body heat warms the room 2 degrees 240pm Marshal, Will and Holly never came back, so im going to go ahead and eat their food. Plants are doing great. Sleestacks started showing up asking for weed for some reason. 6/8/25 9:02am BIG FINIsH!!!!!❤️❤️💥💥🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨⏰⏰⏰⏰⏰🔔🔔🔔🔔🎉🎊🎊🚨💥🚨💥👍👍. ALL DONE I DID IT!!!! START TO FINISH, I ACTUALLY DID IT!!!! SMALL PLANTS ROCK WHEN IT COMES TO TRIMMING AND FINISHING RINSES AND STORAGE.....I FLUSHED ALL PLANTS WITH A GALLON OF PH5.9....THEN TRIMMED AND REMOVED FAN LEAVS ALL PRETTY, NOW JUST TO DRY THE PLANT ON THE VINE IN THE TENT, THEN CHOP, INTO DRYING TENT FOR A FEW DAYS, THEN INTO TERPLOC BAGS!!!!! 1130am. FROST BANGER AUTO. -- 8-10 OVERALL, 10-10 ON SEED TO SMOKE TIME!! VERY SHORT!!! NICE IN SMALL SPACES She is very leafy, likes bigger container than I use, she doesnt need much nutrient work bare minimum she holds lots of nutrients in her system. PURPLE HAZE AUTO 8-10 OVERALL, 10-10 ON SEED TO SMOKE TIME! Medium hight VERY heavy smell the heaviest smell out of this and 7Z and FROST BANGER AUTO. Chuncky build not too leafy. 7Z AUTO 9-10 OVERALL, 10-10 ON SEED TO SMOKE TIME! She was the MOST beautiful This is the one for show.....She looks like a CHAMPAGNE FOUNTAIN!!!!! I have not seen this before, massive pistil formation for the bubbles look.... I REALLY like this one, In a bigger pot topped would look just amazing!!!!! HOLY SMOLYl....I typed the review for tommorow!!!!!!! I HAVE to be awake at midnight for MONDAY HARVEST!!!!!!! I have lost about 2/3 of my body mass, not much of me left. I wont be around much longer kids. 6/10 1050pm 7Z.....just took a little from the bottom branch. PERFECT, she turned out perfect. 1130pm I can not figure out taste but it feels fresh, smooth, clean, refreshing.. Smoke is clean, ash is clean, water in the bong is not as yellow not as many left over nutrients....love it, will get more. 10 + 1 7Z just for beauty and smooth not disgusting overpowering high, just right!!!! 6/11 1230am getting more grovebags TerpLoc bags.....FROM THEIR WEBSITE...EVERYTHING ELSE IS FAKE. 143AM GC 🚨🚨 TOP REDSIGN. NODE 5 & 6 HAVE 2 EXTRA BUD SITES.... I USUALLY TOP AT 3 OR 4 AND THEN TRIM OFF NODE 1 DEPENDING ON MAIN STALK HEIGHT, EASIER TO WATER AND MAINTIAN. BUT I CUT OFF NODE 1 THRU 4 AND LEFT MAIN COLA. INVERTED TOP??? SHE IS GIVING ME IDAS.... I WILL TOP GOAT AND GROW AT NODE 5 & 6 GOAT 2 WILL BE TOPPED AT NODE 4 & 4.....🚨🚨

By the third week of flower we are getting excited because we see the buds really bulk up. It is early on and we are seeing these top nodes take shape into colas. Here is the work put in this week: -Prepare each plant with 1 gallon of lukewarm water with 3 tsp Big Bloom, 2 tsp of Grow Big and 2 tsp of Tiger bloom. Oh and 5 mLs of Cal Mg. -pH the water to 6.5 and pour. -Shop Vac runoff. -Before tent lights turn on at 7AM, spray all 3 plants from top to underneath to the bottom to top of soil with GrowSafe. If you don't know what it is, look it up. Here is the solution concentration: 3.75 mL GrowSafe in 1 cup of H20. This is a preventative measure ;-) Then after that it is cleaning up the lower growth on the stems. Some people call it Lollipoping. I'm leaving virtually all fan leaves above 1/3-1/2 of the way up the plant. I tightened up the plant arrangement as well by placing them in a triangle shape. I believe this will help the two plants that were living at either end of the lights (where the light might not have been ideal) closer to the center. Now each plant has an even amount of light exposer. I also adjusted some branches with foam garden wire in such a way that evens out the height and width of canopy. The sour diesel buds grew the quickest at first. The do si dos buds are stacked under a lot of leaf growth. And the gelato buds, which started out as the smallest and slowest growing, sped up by the end of the week, almost catching up to the size of do si dos's buds. Thanks for reading my post :-) -

This was a very stressful week as there were too many variables at play all at once; even my camera refused to cooperate for the first few days. The freshly transferred plants were starting to droop and I was unsure if it was transplant shock, nutrient burn, or because of the incomplete grow tent. My first batch of nutrients were mixed into a gallon bottle and was weighed by a friend using his scale; this set was enough to last weeks. For this new batch however, I didn't have my scale and used the table spoon as my measuring tool; needless to say when my TDS meter finally arrived, both runoff and the remainder of the mixed nutrients read 2800. Fortunately my light setup seemed to be inefficient still and the plants weren't drawing much nutrients and only ended up with a very light burn on the older growth. All pots were flushed back to recommend levels and the light lowered until the lux values read appropriate. This week ends my daily comments and I'll stick to this end of the week format going forward.
