Today I watered her with 1.5g de-chlorinated water with 5ml/g of Botanicare CalMag+ added, then ph'd to 6.2 @ 72℉. I turned her pot and plucked a couple of yellow shade leaves...the basic daily maintenance. 9/22- I didn't water her yesterday as she looked great and was 'praying' hard. Today she was given 1.5g of de-chlorinated water which was ph'd to 6.2 @ 72℉ which I gave her through her drip pan (bottom chuggin) and I also gave her pot a turn. She continues to have a great deep green color that is beautifully contrasted by the snow white trichomes piling up on them! Her height has not really increased but she is extremely bushy with tight node spacing which will necessitate plucking some leaves to keep the light penetrating into her canopy. 9/24- We're getting close to wrapping up Week Five of flower in a couple of days and she'll be past the half-way point with the most exciting weeks yet to come! I didn't water yesterday and today I went ahead and Top Dressed her with 2 tbsp/g Dr. Earth Flower Girl 3-9-4, 1 tbsp/g Dr. Earth Gold Premium 4-4-4, 1/2 cup Down To Earth Bio-Fish, 1/3 cup Down To Earth High Phosphorus Bat Guano and 2 cups of Worm Castings. I watered in the Top Dress with 1.5g of de-chlorinated water which was ph'd to 6.2 @ 72℉ and let her enjoy her meal! 😜 9/26- After her heavy watering on the 24th I didn't water yesterday and when I checked her today at 'lights on' and she still had some weight to her pot and her leaves were praying hard so I held off on watering today and will hit her tomorrow with her usual 0.75g watering. ~Thanks for stopping in! Things should be getting a lot more interesting in the coming weeks...Stay lifted and be Blessed! 😎🙏~

These buds are fattening and looking lovely. The plants are getting heavy. It's starting to smell. Amazing. All is going well. The plants are soaking up all the nutrients and I just added a automatic drip system. Can't wait to see how it works for them. We're getting so close to harvest. They smell amazing. They look amazing and they know they're going to taste. Amazing. Happy farming family just

One Plant did foxtails but its structures were really resistant. The other plants were resinous and made a pretty good yield. The buds are very consistent with both potency and flavour

Crop King guarantees 80% germination rate... All 5 beans popped. 💪 When I was initially buying all of my equipment, I had not a f*cking clue what I was doing or what I would need. 😂 Swapped out the plastic pots for Vivosun 3 gal fabric pots, bought the 5 gal to transplant but decided against it later since all 5 plants were healthy and growing fast and my space was limited... Also didn't fully grasp the mechanics and procedures of Drain-To-Waste Hydroponics at the time but I'll post the automated build I added at the appropriate week of veg... And it wasn't until a couple weeks ago that I started doing the proper research into lights, spectrums, PPFD, PAR, etc... but these two lights (the blurple came with the tent, the other was from a brand called iSmile on Amazon; 130w and 105w actual wattage) were plenty to make it through veg and into preflower before I upgraded to the Sunraise QB2000...

I have opened her up a bit by tying down some of the branches to expose more of the canopy and the buds are developing nicely

More like HST instead of LST. This week was all about low stress training or lst. But as it was for the very first time I would say it was more of a high stress trainig (for me of course). First ties I started already the previous week but this week was hard tie downs on pretty much every branch. Since I messed up the first week and put my lights on almost max power the plants didnt strech out for light and are pretty low and bushy. Thats why the space is really tight and lst is just the thing to do. I used a metal string since I think its better because I can adjust it more and all tension is not on the string. For the past 2 weeks or so I noticed some weird spots on one leaf. This week it went on 3 more leafs and on one more plant. After some research I found out thats a serious Calcium defficiency. Since I’m not from US I didn’t have the same things as in videos I watched. So I didnt get the regular cal mag. But instead some from local store and I must say it was bad choice. Way too less calcium. Ordered a proper one and hopefully it will come in the next fee days. Another interesting thing happened. At the beginning I was cinsidering toping. But after researching more decided no to go with it on the first grow. As the lack of calcium appeared I went full blast with feeding. And it appears thats I was underfeeding, since I thought that my coco was too wet. Guess what happened when I went from once in 3days to twice per day. Thats right. The growth was massive ! One of the metal strings somehow got stuck in the plant and when this acceleration happened it simply snaped itself of 😳 I must say I was a bit sad at the moment, but then I figured it’s some form of self-toping. Not that I wanted it to happen on my strongest plant. But will see what will happen out of it. Alltogether this was a nice week full of wide strech and a lot of new knowledge!

Venga que ya es la última semana , que hoy ya apago y en 2 días les pasó tijeretazo a estas Titan F1 de RoyalQueenSeeds. Se han comportado muy bien en interior. Creo que mi error fue hacer un trasplante, aun así todo fenómeno, tienen buen color y en casa hay un aroma increíble. Temperaturas máximas de 30 y mínimas de 25 grados. La humedad relativa está en torno al 40% Agrobeta: https://www.agrobeta.com/agrobetatiendaonline/36-abonos-canamo Mars hydro: Code discount: EL420 https://www.mars-hydro.com/ Hasta aquí es todo , espero que lo disfrutéis, buenos humos 💨💨.

Plants have a nice size, big flowers and they are still growing. I'm fully satisfied with this strain. My first grow of Northern Lights Auto. I started with Plagron Green Sensation this week.

Final Defoliation before I Flip to flower next Friday. Did a big cleanup under the ScrOG to direct all the energy to the tops. I also Reworked the Co2 Generator, let's call it 2.0 Generator. I know it might not be upping the Co2 tons, but some is better than none. Best part of the 2.0 you can see it working so you actually know there is some Co2 going in. Basically a 1 liter bottle with Sugar & Yeast with 1/4" tube that goes to second bottle with water in it. Tube is submerged so you can see it bubble about twice a second. the second bottle has another 1/4" tube that feeds through the grow room wall and connects to the back of a small fan that circulates the Co2 into the room. As I said not expecting a whole lot, but it can always be scaled up next round. The girls continue to grow at a good pace, 2" in 3 days and drinking about 1 gallon every 3 days as well.

Everything is going as intended 😁 She is growing her buds and making new ones 💚 no signs of any kind of dis balance ✌️ I gave out other plant because of hermaphroditism 🤷‍♂️

I loved growing this strain, she was very easy to train and quick to flower/finish. Not to mention she yielded pretty damn good if I might say so! I gave her a nice veg to get a good mainline going so I could have an even canopy and I'm sure that contributed to her having such anl nice harvest. Hope she smokes as good as she looks!

Mandarin Squeeze has had a rough start. First I though the plant was dampening off. So I dropped the other seed I had in rock wool. Well both are growing now. If both make it I am gonna do my first duel grow. As normally the plants will fight for resources. Roots have not found the solution yet for either plant. Hopefully soon they find it. Nothing more to report at the moment. Thank you Spider Farmer, and Terpyz Mutant Genetics. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

~ WEDDING CHEESECAKE FAST FLOWER by FastBuds ~ Well fam, here we go again with another epic strain from FastBuds Fast Flowering stable. After having such tremendous success growing their Gorilla Cookies Fast Flower outdoors last year, I've decided to run another of their fast flowering strains outdoors this year... Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower! The best description of this awesome cultivar comes directly from my friends at FastBuds which is as follows: "A delight for the mind and body: Wedding Cheesecake FF (Fast-Flowering) is a delicious strain that offers XXL yields in a 7-8 weeks flowering cycle. This terpene powerhouse produces loads and loads of mouth-watering vanilla-creamy-cookie-scented terps with hints of citrus and cinnamon. In addition to its delicious aromas, this variety grows very well in both indoor and outdoor setups, yielding up to 650 g/m2 without extra maintenance, making it the ideal strain for beginners as it allows you to maximize yields while minimizing work. This super-fast feminized photoperiod version offers upbeat and energetic yet deeply relaxing effects that are perfect for consumers looking for a heavily focused, motivating, and creative high. It’s the ideal strain for those needing that extra energy boost to start a busy day on the right foot. Wedding Cheesecake FF boasts chunky, large-sized buds with a thick layer of silvery-white resin and bright orange hairs scattered all over: that just screams ‘quality’. The lime-green flowers sparkle with an array of hues ranging from dark to light green, to magenta and purple, and reek of a delicious aroma that’ll remind you of fresh store-bought cheesecake. This is an XXL hybrid that grows extremely tall in height, reaching up to 3m with one huge main cola and multiple long side branches that can withstand enormous yields of up to 650 g/m2 with ease. Wedding Cheesecake FF is extremely resilient to the elements and can be grown in almost every climate as long as you’ve got the space and basics covered, making her an excellent choice for those looking for large-scale harvests with a quick turnaround time without much effort." ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: This is going to be an outdoor grow, but I have started the Wedding Cheesecake FF indoors as our weather is still too cold to put her outside (nighttime temp's dipping regularly into the 30's℉). The plan is simple... let her grow inside under a 19/5 light schedule until the nighttime temperatures stay above the mid 40's℉, at which point she'll be moved outside and transplanted into the soil which I have already setup and inoculated with beneficial microbes, and then let the fun begin!🤪💚 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 9/14- Here we go into the sixth week of flower for the Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower by FastBuds and she's on a mission! The Wedding Cheesecake FF is going strong and is continuing to stack her frosty flowers. She also now has a very pronounced 'cheesy' aroma coming off of her! 9/16- My daily routine of watering, removing dead foliage and checking over the flowers continues. 9/18- I'm checking the trichomes on the Wedding Cheesecake FF every other day now to try and dial in the harvest time for this beast. 9/20- I checked the Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower's trichomes today and they are getting super close to ideal so I will be keeping a close eye on them and anticipate her being ready to harvest within a week! Week 6 is on the books and the Wedding Cheesecake FF is just about finished up. Next week is looking to be 'the one' for this incredible cultivar from FastBuds, I hope to see you there! Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏

With this grow coming to an end I'm very satisfied, I've just cut the last girl down and they are hanging to dry now. The girls showed good vigor through out the whole grow feeling pretty comfortable in the organic soil mix I've made at the start. Later in flower I started giving the whole Plagron line from time to time to give them that little bit extra power throughout their flower cycle. I've took the two most different (looking) phenos I got and try to make some nice pictures, but in week 15 you can find the photo session I did with the nicest pheno in my eyes.
