Will update throughout the harvest, drying, and curing. Great grow!!! I honestly could not have asked for a better first time growing experience. A few little bumps along the road, but nothing these ladies couldn't handle. Very citrus smell topped with a salvating creaminess. Will definitely keep this lady in mind for all future grows. Maybe at least one plant. I can't wait until I can try this girl. Thank you to Fast Buds for these awesome genetics and thank you to the Grow Diaries Cimmunity for all your help along the way. Happy Growing 💚💪🌱😎🌱💪💚

New ventilation is working well Got the RH down by around 10% Microscope from Amazon doesn't work well for checking trichomes as quality and focus is to shitty for my restless hands, iPhone works better atm

Beginning of week... The purple is beginning to bleed onto the leaves!!! Finally! I have a purple phenotype!! I am definately calling this "Week 1 of flower".. She has stretched noticeably.. Still not very much, but it is noticeable! By the end of this week it should be very obvious! I love these ladies! This is why I've stayed single since I've started growing more than 2 years ago! Bahahaha! Not even joking.. 100% of my love goes to these lovely ladies!!.. So this morning I flushed with FloraKleen.. The runoff PPM came out exactly as it went in.. Crazy!!! I mixed the nutrients for tomorrow and I went up a tad on ArmorSi (Silica).. CALiMAGic (CalMag).. And the FloraMicro.. Went down on the FloraGro so that I could also add the FloraBloom to the mix since the flower stretch will be happening this week.. I went ahead and also went up a bit on the Floralicious Plus and the FloraNectar FruitNFusion.. Gonna keep the FloraNectar at veg amount till she is actually making some nugs.. Maybe 2nd or 3rd week into flower. That's how I did it with my suitcase grow (*TC*).. Seems like the way things are going at this point.. I may not even be able to add a bloom booster. Still early tho.. Only time will tell! Next day.. Night temps in the tent got down to 57F.. Holy shit it had me nervous lol.. The leaves looked like shit.. But they always look like shit when lights are out.. But she perked up this morning.. Lights only been on for about 30 mins and they are back to NORML <--- lol see what I did there? But yeah.. Hope my clones managed to make it thru too Next morning.. Yeah she's fine.. I just hate how the leaves droop so much after about 16 hours of light.. Almost like that extra 2 hours is alot of them.. I wonder what they would be doing if I was using 20/4 or even 24/0 light cycle.. I was thinking of bumping it up to 20/4 in week 2 or 3 of flower and leaving it there till harvest.. But haven't made the decision yet. Oh yeah.. This week I also bumped up the power to 100%. And if needed, I will lower the light a bit.. I've burned a few plants in the past, so I know to be careful with that. Wish I had a PAR meter.. They say you can use a LUX meter but I see so much conflicting information on doing that.. I believe its multiply the LUX reading by .025 and that should give you the estimated PAR... But idk how much I trust that.. And when UV and IR are involved, it can be higher than what you think.. Some shit.. Blah blah blah.. Lol Almost mid week... I'm starting to think she needs more nutes.. She seems a little yellowish.. Like she could be a bit more green. I've had strains that were like that before.. But this plant is a little confusing, being my first purple pheno.. She has the little streaks of purple on the stems all over the plant.. But being a purple pheno, that could just be genetics.... But the leaves not looking as lively as they were before.. Seems to me that it shows that maybe there isn't enough nitrogen since she has transitioned into flower.. But there are also yellow tips on all the newer growth.. Doesn't really look too bad tho.. Not like nutrient burn.. But it could be. I know sone deficiencies show yellow tips also.. Ugh. The buds still seem to be forming nicely tho.. Thats what counts.. And damn the purple is bleeding onto ALOT of the newer leaves! Its so fucking pretty! The new growth seems a bit under developed to me tho.. And almost like its wilted.. Not too bad but it is a bit noticeable.. I really hope I dont screw this up lol. Well since I did go up on the nutes a bit this week.. I guess I'll just keep doing what I'm doing and see what happens this week I suppose. Hopefully this clears up after going up on the nutes a bit. I really dont wanna screw this up. Later that day (Almost mid week) So i flushed the medium with FloraKleen the other day.. The runoff came out at 3XX PPM.. Yesterday I fed with nutrients.. Going in was 7XX PPM but the runoff came out at 3XX PPM once again.. I figured ok, the nutrients are still just higher in the medium I guess and I should see it in the runoff this morning as I flush (since I feed, flush, feed, flush, etc.).. But today going in it was 230 PPM but the runoff came out at 420 PPM.. So I think the FloraKleen was still doing what it does.. And maybe thats why the plant isnt as good as she should be. So tomorrow morning I will be feeding at 740 PPM and hopefully the runoff will be where it needs to be.. FloraKleen is great.. But I'm only gonna use it for harvesting.. Cuz this is ridiculousness! Works like magic tho lol.. So there's that.. Will be updating tomorrow with pics! Mid week.. Fucking FloraKleen is still working or some shit! Fed this morning.. Going in was 740 PPM.. Runoff is still showing 420 PPM.. I even made a 4th liter of nutrient mix and going in, it was 850 PPM but runoff is still coming out at 420 PPM.. Son of a bitch. I can see she is starving right now too.. This is one of the worst times to starve these girls.. Not the worst, but one of the worst, in my experience.. What a finicky bitch she is!.. Other than the runoff sucking balls.. And the slight discoloration of the leaves.. She is happy tho.. She should pull thru just fine.. Just gotta get this damn FloraKleen out of there! I'm just gonna feed everyday (instead of feed, flush, feed, flush) till I see the PPM where it needs to be.. But damn FloraKleen works like a mf'r.. Just not the best idea to use while the girl still needs nutrients.. Will be updating as I go.. Hopefully this is fixed soon. Almost end of week.. Idk wtf.. I havent even watered using just plain water yet.. The entire week.. Just been feeding once daily and still the runoff is coming out at 400 - 500 PPM.. But she seems to have gotten a little better. No yellowing. Stretching has begun this week for sure, too.. I wish I could get each top even with the others.. But they arent too far off from eachother. The main top is gonna be a beast of a cola when shes done! The branches on the main top are bunched together so its gonna be massive. The buds are forming nicely too.. Purple is showing more and more each day. Such a gorgeous plant! I cant wait to see what she looks like when its time to harvest! Besides this runoff issue.. She is doing great! There are a couple leaves with spotting.. Looks like calcium deficiency.. But I'm assuming thats because of the runoff issue.. But hasnt spread at all.. And its really not bad looking.. Just a couple spots here and there.. Just thought I'd mention them. But she is very happy and healthy!.. Updating with pics tomorrow! End of week.. Trichomes are beginning to form.. And holy shit.. When you rub them and smell.. Hooooly flipping shirt.. It legit smells like lemonade.. Not just lemons.. Or citrusy.. But like straight up lemonade.. Wow.. Fucking incredible!.. She has definately stretched as I stated would be obvious this week.. She has done some amazing things this week.. The flowers are gettin big fast! Stacking nicely.. She should be quite the yielder! On to the next!!!...

This plant early entered to flowering stage in week 3. Other is nothing special. Thanks.

Looking pretty good all around, some plants in this crop are short but it's all good. Theres some plants in the tent I'm not doing diaries on they're clones from last run I wanted to run back but they are in 2 gal bags instead of 3.

What a week, So I did a run off test end of last week and they was really high, but I would like to address the DNA Mills cork as I am using this in just one pot (A) to try it out I used 3/4 (B) to my normal coco in another pot 50:50 (C) in another at a 1/4 (D) then when just my normal coco mix ( E) and I havent seen much difference other then the retention of water... UNTILL NOW. So evaluating all my reading I have from run off this is how it WAS sitting running water with an EC 0.7 Ms/cm A - 2.4 Ms/cm B - 2.3 Ms/cm C - 2.0 Ms/cm D - 1.9 Ms/cm E - 1.5 Ms/cm So my conclusion is that I dont like the cork maybe I'm using it wrong somehow I dont know but in my experience, it seems to be grabbing hold of all the salts and not letting go, so this week I ran litres and litres of water through them to bring them down I can only get A down to 1.4 Ms/cm and am struggling to get it any further down does anyone have any suggestions. As for the deficiency I was supposed to I produce the PK booster beginning of this week and couldn't with the run off being so high, well that's what I'm hoping anyways 😂. Plant A doesn't seem to be swelling like the rest (front left in pictures) I'm hoping this is down to genetics if anyone else has any thought I'd love to hear them. Thanks for dropping in and reading, Happy Growing! 👊👍

Buds should be dried in the dark, 50% humidity, at 21 degrees

Fine

Week 8, Day 56, Day 12 of Flower. Well the girls are doing nicely again, however PK#2 is still smaller than PK#1. PK1 is 18” tall and PK2 is only 14” tall. Seeds came from same package, but PK2 sprouted 8 hours later. Both are receiving the same nutes. I did notice this morning that she did start to stretch since seeing her last night. All in all things are going well. I did notice a few fan leaves with a slight purpling so I will try adding a little more CaliMagic on the next feed. They are currently receiving 200ppm. Of CaliMagic. The last feeding was 660ppm total nutes, but 950ppm 1.9EC in the run-off so I gave them some Phed water to help clear some of the nutes building up in the media on the next feed which went down to 650ppm 1.3EC in the run-off. Thinking about doing a flush with some Florakleen, or should I wait until flush time at week 7 and 8 of flower when Trichomes are hopefully milky. All comments and suggestions welcome.

Day22: As said in Week3, I will not keep this perspective for the whole grow, as it doesn't really show the size of the plant. But it gives a nice view of how to top leaves grow :) The flashes that you see in the video is the humidifier. It pumps out vapour every hour for 15mins. So basically a quarter of each second of the video will be when the humidifier runs. Day23: I changed it, as I wanted to see the size as well. Day24 - Day28: Happy, healthy growth.

This is my third attempt at my first successful grow, my two initial tries failed from not being aware of needing to add CalMag to RO water and was using Coco... Either way, germination began April 2nd using the paper towel method and bottled spring water, tap roots were long enough to be planted by the 4th. Planted the Blueberry into a solo cup with just Happy Frog, and the Wedding Cake Auto into a 5 gallon fabric pot with mostly Ocean Forest but a solo cup sized amount of Happy Frog were I planted the seed just to get it started without nute burning the seedling. After planting the seeds into the soil I watered each with about 20 mL daily of RO water with around 200ppm's of CalMag and they're doing great.

Will run again had two different phenos

Gonna be leaving the plants to the auto feeder for a week probably starting this weekend, here’s hoping they make it through that relying on just the water stakes and hempy res. Flowering has definitely started, for the Amnesia especially so, but all the plants are getting along just fine and giving me a nice sea of colas over my grow area. Cheers and best wishes for yall’s croptober!

Muy buena genética, me quedé con el pheno 1, ya que tenía más resina y un mejor terp para mi gusto. Buen híbrido no te deja superaplacado y ofrece un efecto cerebral eufórico.

Critical Kush is a strain that is potent, and with it come a few side effects, although none of them are very serious. This indica-dominant strain can sometimes make you feel parched as it can leave you with a dry mouth, which is usually coupled with a case of dry and itchy eyes.

Well it was one of patients being that I didn’t know there sex but it showed got a couple of pics showing what it should look like I also had to back the light up notice some bleaching on the tip but beside that all n all it was a good week I think

What’s up y’all!!?? Week 9 got me getting antsy I can’t lie. The trichomes are very milky white. The leaves are turning a deep green and a few of them even turning purple. This grow is in a tent with a photoperiod which has just began flowering. For that reason the light cycle is 12/12 which isn’t ideal but I gotta work with what I have. I’m not expecting a crazy amount out of this grow because of the light cycle change but I think it’s doing well for the circumstances. I’m expecting a 12 maybe even 13 week finishing on this plant. The light cycle it’s on does slowdown the flowering stage just a bit. I have some lower branches which have popcorn nuggets. It’s not much so I’m not going to worry about cutting them. Especially not this late in the flowering stage. I find myself watering / feeding every other day. Maybe every 2 days.

Day 21 flower: they were thirsty. Work had me away a few days. So defoliation and 1750ml of H2O. Ppfd set to 725. Day 22 Flower. These flowers took almost 1 gallon of H2O. That’s with no run off. Ppfd is set to 750. 6.49ph water. The soil was dry after 2 days. So I am going to have to watch the water. 1 more week and then we apply the bloom. Day 23flower also added my heater and they are bouncing back. I amended the soil. My ph meter died so I over night ordered a new one.. Day 25 flower. Ok def moisture and temp. Side note I was not home for due to some medical stuff. So today ph set 6.5, more water.3500ml with no run off. And the plants looks way better. Also temps were drifting close to under 60. So temps at 77 and humidity 55. I also think when I started I never really saturated the pots the most water I ever gave was 1/2 gallon twice. So I think from the start I was battling a 1/2 dry pot.
