Day 58 Update: Watered both plants with 3/4gal until runoff. Water was dosed with Terpinator at 15ml/gal. I will start the flush on Plant #1 next watering. Added a stake and a plant yoyo to Plant #2 to support the heavier branches. Day 62 Update: Starting flush on Plant #1. Watered both plants with almost a gallon until runoff. Plant #2's water was dosed with 3/4tsp of Big Bloom, 1/4tsp of Grow Big, and 1/4tsp of Tiger Bloom. Plant #1's water is just plain pH balanced water. I will start watering every 3 days now. I will start the flush on Plant #2 after one more nutrient watering.

Apolo F1 Mission Diary - Week 4: The Symphony of Growth Continues! Greetings, fellow cultivators and stewards of the green kingdom! Week 4 of our Apolo F1's journey has unfolded with a crescendo of growth, as we continue to shape this botanical masterpiece. Join me as we explore the ongoing ballet of bending, leaf manipulation, and the new addition – topping! Our Apolo F1 has truly become a prima ballerina in the art of controlled chaos. The mainlining technique continues to guide the branches into a dance of elegance and efficiency. Each bend and twist is a stroke on the canvas of growth, ensuring even light distribution and robust development. It's like watching nature paint its own masterpiece! Leaf manipulation adds an extra layer to our botanical canvas. Gently coaxing the leaves to bend and expose more surface area to light is like unlocking the full potential of each leaf. The result? A foliage symphony that's not only beautiful but also optimized for photosynthesis. Our Apolo F1 is not just growing; she's composing a green opus! In a bold move, I've decided to top our flourishing Apolo F1. Topping is like giving her a stylish haircut, redirecting the energy to create multiple colas and enhance bushiness. It's a calculated risk, and judging by the vibrant response so far, our green virtuoso is ready to embrace the challenge. The stage is set for a richer, more complex growth performance! The nutrient-rich serenade persists with a TDS of 390 ppm and a pH of 6.0, ensuring our Apolo F1 has a nutrient banquet at her disposal. The temperature remains a cozy 20 degrees Celsius, providing the ideal backdrop for this botanical performance. Beneath the soil surface, the root rhapsody continues. Roots are not just anchors; they're the silent applauders to our botanical spectacle. Their dance beneath the surface ensures our Apolo F1 remains anchored and well-nourished. As always, a heartfelt thank you to Aptus Holland for crafting the nutrient symphony that fuels our green odyssey, and to Royal Queen Seeds for gifting us the botanical star of this vibrant show. Join me in the next chapter of our Apolo F1 Mission Diary, where we'll witness the continued symphony of growth and the unfolding drama of a topped and trained botanical virtuoso! Until then, may your gardens flourish and your green endeavors be evergreen! As always thank you all for stopping by and for supporting me on this journey, i am super passion about growing and fell blessed to have you all with me on this new journey

I joined Grow diaries late in my growing career... I wish I would have found this site sooner.. Enjoy! I personally enjoy growing mephisto genetics. I was very happy with the toof decay grow and end result. I ended up letting this cure for 2 months. It is number 2 in my book so far for my adventure with Mephisto seeds. Walter white is #1. I grew this in colder conditions through the winter of 2019. Super dense buds loaded trichs, very loud smell, and great appeal! I have more of these seeds so I will do a start to finish eventually. Happy growing✌️🏽

Day 9 above the soil: Nothing exciting to really report on during this quiet phase. The triplets are happy enough in their new homes and have been hopefully scouting the area without of roots ready for gorging.I have only given them boosts teas , a little silicon and calmag , and the coco girls had their 1st mini feed today with the shogun. I am hoping to keep just below too much runnoff and managing to avoid build up of the salts. I will do a flush on this run of the coco but am mindful of the ecothrive charge being built so dont want to shake of that frass. Growth wise fir a week odd old I cannot complain at all. I can see the difference between these and photoperiods seedlings clearly. Rhe development is quick to proper looking leaves and nodes wanting to fly out too. The yellowing on a few of the girls is not a worry yet. No different growth between the LOS and coco so far but let's see what a feeding schedule does soon.

I am now flushing her with plain Brita filtered water PH'd with lime juice to lower her PH. I initially first flushed her with 42L of water and now I am flushing her once a day for 8 days and then I will put her in for darkness for 3 days and then I will harvest her and dry her for 9 days and then cure her for 28-48 days.

So grow diaries is acting up really bad. It won't let me finish putting in nutrition. Hopefully it get fixed soon. So when Pablo Escobar sprouted, she pushed herself out of the rockwool. She is rooting lower down. Plus I didn't have the light turned up enough. So she stretched a lot, and got top heavy. So if she makes it, this will be a interesting grow against a few odds. Things are going, I dunno about good, but there is a chance. Thank you Spider Farmer, and Divine Seeds. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

5/23/2023 Week 7- Day 1 of Flower (Day 110 overall) (Day 49 of Flower) There was a couple of small super small sucker buds on the lower stocks that needed to be cleaned off but that was it. Just watching them Flower!! 5/24/2023 Week 7- Day 2 of Flower (Day 111 overall) Tucked a few fan leaves below lower buds but didn't see any blatant offenders that needed to be removed. I typically do start my checks in Week 8 but since this is a new strain I decided to go ahead and do a Trichome check just to see what was what.. Just as I thought nothing but clear glassy Trichomes. I will check again in one week.... 5/25/2023 Week 7- Day 3 of Flower (Day 112 overall) Just letting them grow today!! Smell is getting stronger I would say it is a hint of Pine and a heavier fruity smell. 5/26/2023 Week 7- Day 4 of Flower (Day 113 overall) I did Nothing but took some pics and I enjoyed it!!!! It is nice to be able to just sit back and watch them on auto pilot.. :-) Tomorrow Water Change Day!! 5/27/2023 Week 7- Day 5 of Flower (Day 114 overall) I admit it.. I had to defoliate a little bit.. I looked in while changing the water today and there were just a couple blatant offenders blocking the light from lower bud sites and those leaves they just had to go. Other than that I changed the water and this week is where I drop everything and start preparing them for this last phase of the grow. Loving a few of these buds they are starting to beef out very nicely. I added 36 gallons Mammoth Silica = .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil Root DRIP = 1Mil/Gal= 36Mil CalMag= .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil FloraMicro = 3.8Mil/Gal= 137Mil FloraGro= 2.8Mil/Gal= 100Mil FLoraBloom= 4.6Mil/Gal= 166Mil LiquidKoolBloom= 2.5Mil/Gal= 90Mil TPS SIGNAL= 4.0Mil/Gal= 144Mil ORCA = .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil Water Temp= 70.1 Tent Temp= 76 Humidity =64 ** I have two dehumidifiers running on Ink bird controllers to try and keep the humidity down, In late in flower I like to keep the humidity above 45 but below 60. 5/28/2023 Week 7- Day 6 of Flower (Day 115 overall) Opened the back of the tent today and boy did she need some defoliation love in the back. Other than that I took off a few little sucker buds trying to form. I did start to setup my Dry space as well as did a Trichome Check today and the brown tips are coming in nicely. 5/29/2023 Week 7- Day 7 of Flower (Day 116 overall) Found a few baby sucker buds trying to form so I removed them. Other than that I am enjoying watching her mature. I also started my Reverse of the Clone I took 6 weeks ago in Apr from #3. I am uploading footage of the reversing process for your viewing pleasure.

It was a nice strain to grow this was my first autoflower and Indore growth ever. I'm drying the buds at the moment. I'm going to cut my buds off the branches and I'm gonna start whit the curing proces tonight. I like that my buds have a green/purple color. I'll update on the flavor and effects when I've smoked the strain.

12/28 - growing nicely, plenty moisture so feeding will be a while. 12/30 - updated my feeding chart after some conversation with NPK rep. I will be removing the shoots from the "node 2" branches, then topping "node 2" and "node 3" branches later this week. Update: removed 2 shoots from node 2 branches, 2 left as they are smallish. 12/31 - she is doing really well! I may start training the branches sideways tonight! Happy New Years from BlumenBot!!! Shared a time-lapse video too! Update: trained her a bit 1/1/21 - made it to 2021! I removed the restraints for not to let her grow a bit more without additional stress. Hoping to feed Sunday 1/2 - restraints are back in place, mixed some feeding for tomorrow 1/3 - fed her then tried to train her and broke one of the 2 main branches right at the main stem....trying to graft it back together with some tape...not the first time I've broken a branch but the first time its completely broken off....we shall see how this goes....fuck! RAW feeding: 2L Distilled Water 2G Grow 0.18G Phosphorus 2G Microbes Grow 0.13G Enzymes 0.63G Amino Acids 6.0pH 676ppm 71.8*F Update: abandoning the graft attempt and just putting the broken branch in rockwool and right in the soil more or less in its original spot...experimentation at this point... 20 mins later the cut branch is already perking up!

Just got back from vacation, and I'm very pleased to see that the plants are doing well! Was gone Saturday to Thursday, and had a friend check on them once to adjust the pH but other than that they've been on autopilot. The Autopots are amazing for this - I got 2 kits with 2 pots each (instead of 1 kit with 4 pots) which gave me an extra reservoir in anticipation of this vacation. I connected the tubes from both of them with tees, and it worked exactly as I hoped. There's still a few days left of water in the reservoirs, so I think I could theoretically go a full week if needed (though the pH does drift a bit). Switched my feeding approach from guess-and-check EC measurements to doing mass/gallon which has made mixing nutrients a lot more consistent. The current feed contains 5.5g/gal of Megacrop, 1.5g/gal of calmag, and 1g/gal of bud explosion (PK). This works out to be an EC of ~3.1 including my tap water. They've been at this strength for a few weeks and are due for a little bit more, but I didn't want to mess with nutrients before leaving since I'll want to monitor them. The smell is getting pretty strong, with a very sweet scent (almost like berries) when I open the tent. The buds are starting to get some weight as well. Interestingly the two plants that veg'd a little bit slower seem to be budding the strongest. The plant that had explosive growth during veg has a ton of tops, but the buds are smaller. But overall they're all looking pretty good. No signs of issues as far as I can tell, tons of trichomes on the buds and sugar leaves. Expecting ~10 weeks of flower, so they're about half way done. Hopefully they'll keep packing on some weight!

6/8 Stormed last night. Rained most of the day plants look good. They have really acclimated and are taking off with bright green new growth everywhere. Potassium bicarbonate seems to be doing it's trick and the nute schedule seems ok too. I'll update later with pictures 6/9 Raining again today. Poured last night. Branches were flipped over due to hard rain and wind. Oh well maybe the super cropped themselves. Better weather is ahead. I've seen no negative effects from adding the nutes. I'll have to look back and see when I past fed. I took 4 cuttings (2 GDP, 1 9LB Kush, 1 NYCSK) but apparently I accidentally deleted WHEN I took them from this diary. Oh well. They have new growth and are attempting to root in jiffy pellets. 6/11 It stormed the past few days. Branches were limp almost like the sheet rain and high winds super cropped my plants. Once the sun came out they recovered nicely though. Fed two gallons today. Was hesitant due to the amount of rain but it's time to feed. Fimmed some blueberry tops and defoliated what needed it. 6/13 After a couple of sunny days the plants are really growing at a rapid rate. No problem with nutes. pH is in range. Growth is a nice green color. I'm surprised after the beating they took and the sparcity after some defoliation. WPM has been kept at bay for the most part. I pulled off a couple small interior leaves and spot treated around the areas that seemed to have the WPM. This method has seemed to work well. I did notice that I may have a slight mite problem on one of my GDPS. If so it's very early and it would be hard for them to keep numbers up in this harsh environment. Either way I need to continue my IPM for months anyway and was going to use BT but I may look into using spinosid. I can't remember how effective it is at treating mites. I'm not worried anyway. It's happened before with the two spotted mites but even the couldn't really build up numbers in these rough conditions. Anyhow I'll keep this updated. 6/14 Weather has been in the eighties and the plants have loved it. Hard rain and wind haven't damaged the plants yet (knock on wood). I'm planning on doing a IPM spray tonight. If I do I'll update.

Giorno 74 E anche l'ultima pianta (Milk Monkey) è stata raccolta. Difficilmente coltivero indoor durante l'estate dato che sento di aver perso qualcosa in fatto di resina e terpeni visto le alte temperature. Questa pianta però rimane una bomba 💣!!! Lasciata appesa 7gg a 24° e 55% ur mi sono fumato i 3 grammi dei 103gr raccolti e già ora in bocca è un esplosione di sapori. Domina il cioccolato poi delle spezie e un fondo di gorilla glue#4. Tanta roba Exotic Genetics. Appena ho i soldi e trovo qualcosa di interessante è sicuro che compro ancora da voi. Aggiornerò diario con foto di fumi estrazione e dei fiori secchi. Grazie a tutti per i commenti e i like. Sono contento quando le genetiche serie vengono apprezzate ❤️😘
