GrowX Operations: RQS Northen Light Auto

X_AE_A_12 Promo seed from RQS, 05.10 placed it in DIY coco tablet soaked with 0.5% H2O2 solution, after 24h seed was slightly opened and small root showed up :) At 06.10 the root was about 4-5mm long and I moved it into final 19l/5gal fabric pot. 07.10 this strong girl was ~1cm above the ground. 08.10 (Day1 Morning) I helped her to remove the helmet, it was wet and came off easy. First two real leaves were a little bit weird, idk why, but from what I see she's doing well, from Day 1 to Day 7 I was giving her 25-50ml/day of water with a few drops of Acti Vera, Alg-a-Mic, and some local brand root enhancer. Substrate: 70% premixed bioactive soil with worm casting and compost, 25% perlite, 5% vermiculite, 3gr/l RQS Easy Boost Organic Nutrition, ~15gr Real Growers Recharge

X_AE_A_12 Doing pretty good so far! From Day 12 she started to grow faster, giving her 250-500ml of water with mentioned stims every other day. On Day 14 I cut off side colas on the 1st node, dont want the plant to waste her energy on them. The only issue that I have are those light green spots on a leaves, it doesnt look like any defficiency that I know, so I think it might be a Tobacco Mosaic Virus.

X_AE_A_12 Despite that strange mottling she's growing up so fast and bushy! On the Day 21 when I did the LST I also noticed weak minty smell. Giving her some stims, recharge and Cal Mag. It seems the RQS organic pellets doing their job and she has everything needed :) Let's see what happens next..

X_AE_A_12 She's growing fast and healthy, the only problem that I had is that her branches snap very easily, need to be really careful during LST.

X_AE_A_12 She's doing good so far, but because of snapped main cola she stressed a little bit.

X_AE_A_12 Changed the light to Mars Hydro TSL-2000 as she started to bloom, had some minor calcium deficiency but it was easily fixed. Gave her a little bit of additional nuts to support the stretch phase.

X_AE_A_12 Hi fam! I'm sorry for not updating my diary for so long, but I had to leave the place where the grow was located, and the flowering was carried out remotely. As you can see, the calcium deficiency increased, so I gave have a little bit more of CalMag and Recharge, to figure this out. Other than that, everything is going well, she is stretching and developing some nice buds. I'm happy, considering that this is my second grow :)

X_AE_A_12 I thought that the cause of this rusty dots could be some kind of lock out, therefore during week 9 I gave her only CalMag with Recharge to flush her a little bit before the actual flowering stage. The smell is awesome and strong and her buds are so beautiful ;)

X_AE_A_12 So far so good! She's developed some real rockets! During the Week 10 I didn't give her any other nuts except CalMag and Recharge. The buds are very sticky.

X_AE_A_12 We are close to the finish, I think that one more week and we are gonna cut her down. She's still actively growing her buds, and they are veeery sticky! ;)

X_AE_A_12 Final week! Those buds are awesome! We gave her some ice and 48 hours of darkness in the end of week 12, and after that she's got even bulkier and stickier ;) Harvest Day is 01.01.2021

X_AE_A_12 I'm in love with those colors! The amount of trichomes is impressive, she's so sticky! We cut her down on 01.01.2021 after 48 hours of darkness. After that we hung her up untrimmed for drying in 58-60% for 8 days. Unfortunately, I don't have a wet weight, but after dry trimming we have got a 89 gr of dry weight. All buds are curing right now ;) I will update my diary after 3-4 weeks of curing. Many thanks to those who helped & supported me throughout the grow!👌
