Buds are packing on more weight and tightening up. Shouldn't be too much longer now. I'm going to do a flush with compost tea today. It helps wash out any salt buildup and it inoculates my coco at the same time. The plants seem to love it.

What's up Grow Diaries family, super excited to have another grow in addition to the Gelatos. This time is a little different since it will be a new experience for me. First time growing an auto flower strain, first time using Bio Tabs, and first time using the quantum board for the full cycle. I usually use the QB304 for vegging, but since I got a 2'x2' tent. It'll be dedicated for that space. I finally got a hold of some FastBuds seeds but I've been losing sleep contemplating on which strain to grow. I have some LSD-25 and Blackberry, which are fantastic strains (based on what i've seen). It came down to a coin toss and LSD-25 was chosen. Come and join me in this new journey. I've read up on how to grow autos and all that but I know there are plenty of seasoned veterans out there that could share some knowledge. Week 1 - Prepped Fox Farms Ocean Forest soil by mixings BioTabs Startrex and Mycotrex. I know there's been a lot of debate about using 3 gal vs 5 gal for autos but I'm using a 5 gal. fabric pot since that's what I have and probably would still buy a 5 gal instead of a 3. But who am I, I'm another first time auto grower. Hahaha! Let me know your thoughts on this. Light cycle is set to 20 hours instead of the usual 12/12, 18/6, 24. I was debating on running the lights 24/7 but wanted to have period when the plant rest. Not too sure if autos need it but my electric bill could use a break. Soaked the seed overnight and sown into soil approximately 1/2 in. Placed a humidity dome (solo cups 😉) over the site to keep humidity up. Humidity in the room is around 45% which is pretty low for germination. Temperature at 78°F which is good. Within the next day or so, we should have this sprouting out of the soil. Once that happens, an update will soon to follow. UPDATE: 11/9/2018 Day 1 LSD-25 finally sprouted 😃. Relative humidity has been low at 35ish%, keeping a humidity dome/spraying Ph'd water to keep her happy until she gets a little bit bigger. If the humidity levels stay this low, I'll be putting in the humidifier until conditions get better. Enjoy the new pictures and stay tuned for the next update! Day 3 - RH has been going down to the teens so I added the humidifier for now. Conditions are a lot better and is now in the 70's. Increased the blower speed to kinda balance out the incoming dry air. Day 4 - Dialed in the incoming air by adjusting the blower and vent. Humidifier doing it's thing getting RH at 72%. Saturated the soil with regular tap water + Bactrex + Orgatrex + Cal-Mag. We'll see how this goes since no PH or EC readings required with BioTabs. I do plan on using Real Growers Recharge once she gets out of the seedling stage. Once she starts flowering, Mammoth P will be used 😉 Day 5 - Leaves are pointing up, this could be a bad thing right? I think it's due to the low humidity and possibly light burn. Humidifier was setup yesterday so maybe she just needs to get reacclimatized to her new environment. I also increased the light distance a couple of inched just in case. Day 6 - Seems like the leaves are starting to level out and color is starting to look better 😀 Day 7 - End of week 1! Nothing to report other than new pictures are up. See you on the next update.

She's looking very healthy and happy and strong, she has developed perfectly during this last 3 weeks since she was planted and I cannot wait to transplant this lady and start giving her the bushy discreet shape that I need! Let's get to work! 💚❤️💛

We’re officially in the first week of flowering, and the stretch has already started! 🌿 The plant without LST has shot up quickly, growing tall and strong. However, I noticed a few rusty spots on the leaves, which might be a calcium or magnesium deficiency. To help, I’ve slightly increased the CalMag and Bloom nutrients for that plant. 🌱 Other than that, everything seems to be going well, and I’m happy with the overall progress. It’s exciting to see them enter this new phase, and I can’t wait to see how the buds begin to form! 😁✨

So, they’re still growing vertically, again, I had to go away for 3 days. Not planned. Tops got too close and a load of them burnt to a crisp, the seriously burnt ones have been cut off and the other ones that weren’t too bad have been bent down. It was 14 inches when the plant was flipped, I reckon she would be around 48 inches now if I didn’t have to hack at her. But disappointed as I reckon she would have been a beauty. But... life goes on and I’m sure she will yield alright when the time comes 4ish weeks time. Literally the only problem this week has been vertical space, plant itself is very healthy. Next time I better get a taller tent 🤦‍♂️

This strain was given to me in really bad shape because a friend of mine couldn’t take care of it. I didn’t even expect it to live but I nursed it back to help and it was a really unique smell to the buds. It flowered really late but I waited until it was a good time to pick and it turned out really good for my first grow.

Everything going great. Cleaned up some of the bottom leaves. 🍃 Increasing irrigation to 9 events. Light at max intensity. Almost as high as it goes but they still got room to grow. 18.11 Defoliated the bottoms further and removed weak branches. They really packed on budsites these few days.

Über die letzten Tage habe ich die einzelnen Nährstoffe aus der NL gerechnet und in 3 Schritten "ausgeschlichen". 1: Tag 56 Zuerst habe ich den Phosphor rausgenommen, indem ich das PK13/14 gegen Mono-Kalium getauscht habe. EC von 3,3 auf 3,0 gesenkt. 2: Tag 66 Etwa 10 Tage später habe ich das Kalium weggelassen und bin auf das normale Schema ohne PK13/14 zurück gewechselt. Zusätzlich habe ich das Magnesium rausgenommen, indem ich den Calmag-Agent durch Mono-Calcium getauscht habe. EC von 3,0 auf 2,8 gesenkt. 3: Tag 70 4 Tage später habe ich dann den Stickstoff rausgenommen und das Calcium minimal reduziert, um die Verhältnisse aufeinander abzustimmen. Ec von 2,8 auf 2,0 gesenkt. Außerdem trinkt die OG Kush den Tank ja in einem Tag leer, also gebe ich ihr am Morgen kein zusätzliches Wasser mehr. Sie leidet also am Abend ein wenig an Trockenstress, bevor sie neue NL bekommt. Die Chemdawg schafft das nicht, also lasse ich sie "normal" laufen als kleinen Vergleich. Sie bekommt alle 3 Tage neue NL, da sie höchstens 1 Liter am Tag trinkt. Für den anfallenden Trim hab ich mich schonmal mit einer Waschmaschine vorbereitet, da mir die letzten Male von Hand rühren oder in der Box schütteln zu anstrengend und zeitaufwändig war. Ich werde nur 2 Siebungen machen und zwar 160er micron und 45er micron, da mein Anspruch da nicht übertrieben hoch ist, was die einzelnen Stufen angeht. Alles von 45 bis 120 war immer ok für mich. Die ersten Übungen mach ich mit den Resten aus dem Outdoor-Run, das ist eh nicht gerade der Hit und kann deshalb für sowas gut herhalten.

Trained hard AF this week. Couldnt have done it without the help of my man apollo creed and rocky's face. The real credit belongs to the montage though. Without it we would still be watching rocky II wondering who was gonna win.

Very rough transplant into 5 gallon bags today. Ended up ripping quite a lot of roots from Plant 1 in particular trying to get them out of ceramic pots. Fingers crossed they recover okay and this doesn't slow them down too much. Plant 1 is showing pistils. Massive learning curve on this grow.

New week! Tips and help from last week, I had around 1500 ppm and I did flush my roots in water and change everything. Now is around 1000 ppm and dropping 150 ppm a day. Did read about water level in DWC and how to increase the grow with water. I had the water almost up to the root or the level of there the basket is. Now I have 1-2 inch (2-5 cm) below where the roots come out. This create air roots. I'm not sure if it's the air roots or the ppm but my flower is boosting. Can se buds grow!! Trimming so I can keep the same hight. Have any tips or rekomandation? Only have one question for next week and this is: it's looking a bit thigth between the buds and all of the leaf is cristal on it. Should I cut some more leaf? And what leaf should I trim? Is so thigth in there. Or will it grow fine?

The CBD has now fully recovered from her water logging adventure. The new leafs look very healthy and no signs of stress from the topping. I have to fix the ScrOG rack as the heat in the greenhouse caused the 3D printer clips (that hold the stand in place) to expand and loosen. Probably some binding wire will do the trick. Until I find a solution for the ScrOG rack, I applied an LST clip to the main branch. This will keep her from growing vertically too much. The next day the main branch was already pointing up. I attached some binding wire to keep the top horizontal and give the side branches a chance to grow taller. I bought some new clamps to keep the scrog rack in place. More on this in the next few days!
