Been too busy to update the last few weeks, but they’re surviving longer then I expected. When I received my new light I did not take in consideration of the heat output and within the first night of use the tent reached a scorching 88 degrees

Ok, so photos are finally in flower, autos will have to do with 12/12 till finish. A batch of 15 more photos is brewing outside the main door, all primo. Plan is to veg em out there for 4 weeks and then in the flower room. Will fill in missing spots with more autos and then a late auto run as batch 2 of photos finishes. Will get my 7 lbs or so @peakyplanters - slide in my dms

Good day to all my friends and visitors here on GD. Decided to finally finish this diary so that on New Year eve I'm not opening the year with unfinished business. Now we cut the second Tropicanna XL auto plant, the first cut you can find in week 17. The plant from week 17 weighted 2.6 kilo wet, this one finished at 2.1kg. wet. The girls where autoflower but thanks to me starting this grow in cold day temps (14 degree Celsius) the started flower really late and grew and grew :) I enjoyed growing this strain immensely, smells so sweet and fruity, she has the most intense and most delicious aroma ever She brunches off like crazy, gave me a ton of big and dense bud. They were the biggest plants I have ever grown and to top that this cultivar rewarded me with one of the most tasteful buds, fit even for a picky connesour. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SE7000 done it's magic with this grow as with all my other grow ops. For anyone who is interested in obtaining this efficient and affordable light fixture ($ to gram) here's the link: https://spider-farmer.com/products/spider-farmer-upgraded-se7000-730w-commercial-led-grow-light/ A shout out to Sweet Seeds for the gift of this fenomenal genetics: https://sweetseeds.es/en/ Thank you all for your companionship on this voyage, I hope you enjoyed it at least as much as I did. Also thank you for this awesome year together here. Together with my little family we want to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a happy slide into the New Year, we love you all.

She hermied on us so this may be the last time we plant an unknown seed indoors, this set us back about 3 weeks. ..we plan on putting all of this plant towards edibles ..This wasn't a total waste imo..we learned a valuable lesson on taking unnecessary risks :)

Day 9 for this girl and roots are touching the water, good growth so far and germinated in less than 24hrs. Pleased with this girl so far as she appears to be strong and stable from the start. Good sign. Can't wait to get her going. Its been a good week, nice healthy growth.. rather vigorous but im not complaining. Might let her go natural this run with no training but we will see. Stay tuned. FlavoursUK

I am very satisfied with the variety, it has good flowers with good effect. The yield is also very large for small time effort

Week 5 The weather for the last few weeks has been spectacular with no change in sight. I've had to dramatically increase the amount of water, PE1's happily chugging 2 Ltrs now. I've also dialed down the nutes as the very tips started to show possible nute burn. I've purposely not used techniques such as LST. I don't see the point as these are for personal use; i'm not looking for a particularly large yield, just hopefully some good end product. So far the Pineapple's have been a dream to grow especially for a beginner. PE1 continues to explode upwards and outwards and PE2 is catching up fast. I did catch a couple of small aphid colonies on PE 1 & 2, I wiped the leafs and introduced a mantis that I found in the garden; she seems very happy in her new home. So far all seems clear 😀 The Lemonades however are proving a little trickier to read for a beginner grower like me. I've increased water and nutes and will monitor. PL1 looks happy & healthy however, hasn't quite had the growth I've been expecting but again, that's probably my experience or lack thereof; it's very early days so she could stretch in the next couple of weeks. PL2 remains very stunted though. I gave her as much love as her sisters but, it doesn't appear to be enough... kids?! Still, I'm sure it's been my lack of experience so if I get them across the line my overall mark will reflect that.

Week has been good. I'm not sure about the ppm and salt around roots, they are a little brown. Wounder if I should flush them and start again with nutrient? And see some of the last picture, it's pretty thigth between the leaf and buds, should I but some of the leaf? Ppm 1400-1600 Temp 22 to 31 Temp in water 20-26 Humidity 50-60%

Divine Seeds Auto Candy Outside Grow Contest 👉Sponsored👈 W5F1 July 6-12 We had a break in the temperatures and humidity this week. It’s been in the 80s and Iow 90’s. It’s still hot but the heat index remained below 100. Auto Candy had a growth spurt this week doubling her size from all the rain and heat. She is 12.5 inches tall and so far, doesn’t mind the heat and humidity. My little candy girl is becoming a lady. Little white pistils appeared at the nodes. Bring on the flowers. I give water only from the well and I do not ph. , Fingers crossed she will be strong and take the heat like a champ. As aways, thank you all for stopping by, for the likes and most of al growers’ love and support. Stay green, growers love 💚🌿 💫Natrona💫

Day 17, and she’s starting to show sugars from the top down. I can’t wait for a smell to develop, but when I did smell something during the first opening of the tent it smells something fruity. She’s drinking at least 4 gallons a day at this point.

Wed 01/12 - 5th nodes started to come through now, once the 6th node has hit roughly 5-10mm in height i'll be topping down to 5 nodes again! (SCRoG going up on saturday followed by LST and light defoliation) - Cal-Mag deficiency has cleared up! Sat 04/12 - Topped all Plants, 7th nodes had started but chopped the 6th off back down to 5 nodes on all plants. - Very Slight yellow tips so will Cal Mag Foliar spray 30 mins before lights off. - SCRoG set at 21cm above the medium *note* one plant is now drinking double compared to the rest, most plants taking 1.25L feed every day, this one takes 2-2.5L daily! Mon 06/12 - Took off the lowest fan leaves from every plant as they're just sat in darkness doing nothing - Week 4 I will begin LST and Heavy Defoliate/Lolli-popping - Just ordered some LST Clips so they will be arriving tomorrow.

Had a few hiccups. Plants ended up developing a nitrogen toxicity from too much worm casting. I simply did a flush on them with water PH’d to 6.3 and allowed the soil to dry out

Germ Week1 (Day 1 Feb24) Stilton and Tropical Berry done directly into a riot cube sat in a bed of biobizz light mix in a solo cup 2 fruity widow seeds sat into a wet paper towel in a ziploc bag Feb 27 - no real move from the widow's in the bag, so i moved one of them into a riot cube Mar 1 - action from stilton, but the others not really doing much. Mar 2 -widow 2 is dead. went to the shop and got myself a barney's farm critical kush, into a paper towel What's the plan here? Hoping for 4 different strains to give me 4 different reactions to the same conditions and maybe I'll find something that likes the space i've set up I've never done direct to substrate before, but seems to work fine. Doing the kush in a bowl just because it feels more comfortable to me, but likely not a big deal What are we doing different this time? Try to watch and maintain temp and humidity as well as possible. In seedling I'll look to mist the riot cube once per day, in the morning, with a tiny bit of water As soon as the first set of leaves touches the edge of the cup i'll transfer to final pot and hopefully have some micro-r to help the transition Looking to maintain as little LED headroom as possible, to try and get the nodes really close Aiming to top at node 3 once I see node 6 just start to pop out Feed once per week and water once per week.

I'd like to title this Diary entry Screw You Advanced Nutrients. 7th week done.. 3 weeksish left on the Lsd-25 and 4 weeksish on the purple Lemonade.. Gonna be some chunky mothers. Purple coming up everywhere, pretty colours. Oh yes we are very pleased so end of 7th week for these ladies and stretching has stopped thank goodness and we are now into bud building/mass building. The two lsd-25 plants definitely went into full flower "mode" sooner. The Colorful lady seems to have benn mass building all week. Probably gonna have different harvest windows on these ladies. Was hoping for same time but it's okay we are creative and will figure a way ahead. There is some CO2 being fed in the tent. With a smaller co2 bucket. We will be trying out a new one for us and it is a product called dense from green planet. We will using dense when the regular reservoir change is suppose to happen. Before we feed only Dense we will be prepping the ladies with an extra feeding of GP3 micro. Buffering the leaves and prepping the uptake for the feeding. So with dense there will be only a feed of Dense with UC roots and ph down. The formula of dense is 0-0-62 so this is a very concentrated Potash supplement. We will be using 1/2 recommended doses as per our system and it's requirements. This will run for 4-5 days and significantly increase the Amount of Potash in the Plant fear not.. The next 2-3 days will run with just phed water then onto P-k spiking with Bloom Booster alone. At this stage Massive Bloom formulation would be great as well but we wanna cut out our nitros while still have some micros.. So we will feed smaller amounts of GP3 Micro with Powdered bloom booster, rezin and liquid weight. Right up until we do a 3 day flush before harvest. Nutrients and Light is the idea so we will see turn outs and everything. If you are wondering what is the difference between the plants and the lady on the left looks so burnt. Left side only fed Flora Series w/ Advanced Nutrients supplements the plants on the right side is fed only Flora Series with Green planet supplements. The nutrient formulas provided in this diary are for right plants only. We can not express the amount of disgust we feel towards Advanced Nutrients as we spent good money on their product and feel genuinely ripped off. The words smelly disgusting mess describe what happened when we added big bud to left side. Bottle smells fine but the Formula is obviously way off as we did not have issues like this when using it the first dozen or so times. We will be using chemical nutrients and powders for life now and will not use Advanced Nutrients again or recommend it for anyone. The Organic Big Bud Formula is no good for hydroponic growing and they obviously rushed it to market to make money..... We really wanted to finish with Advanced Nutrients being the supplement on the left side but we can not. The product itself has basically made it impossible to continue confidently using any Advanced Nutrients labeled as both Organic and Safe for hydroponics. The proof is in the pudding and so glad and happy really now that we are using Green Planet and continue on this trend of cleaner greener growing and a more intelligent approach. On a further note just to go a bit further Bud Candy for example contains sugars that are basically present in Black Molasses. So what they've basically done is filtered and bleached Black Molasses and watered it down and are selling it to us at around 40 bucks a litre. Bunch of crooks Screw you Advanced Nutrients.
