Three different strains from LIT Farms (https://litfarms.com). Check them out if you haven't heard of them. Looks like they have some fire 🔥 genetics. I'm about to find out!! 12/30/2022: Started all of the seeds in a cup of distilled water, with a splash of hydrogen peroxide for 24 hours. 12/31/2022: moved into a damp paper towel, using the same water/hydrogen peroxide mix the seeds soaked in. 1/1/2023: 5 of 6 seeds germinated and are showing a small tail. The Frozen White Runtz, Ice Bath, and 3 out of 4 of the Grand Prix. Still planted all 6. The Grand Prix #4 is the one that was not showing a tail yet. Still holding out hope. Only plan to plant 2 of the Grand Prix, so I'm not concerned yet. Hopefully I get two female!!! Planted all the seeds into a solo cup, filled with BuildASoil Light, and watered with ThermX-70, Rootwise Micro Complete, and some fresh aloe juice from an aloe plant in my back yard. My daughter got to pick the color of the solo cups, so looks like we are using pink, haha. Added a light mulch layer of barley straw, and put in my tent under 18 hours of light. 1/3/2023: the same seeds that cracked two days ago broke the surface today, so I'm calling this Day 1. I checked the Grand Prix #4 and decided to cut my losses and throw in a new seed directly into the cup. We'll see if this one pops and can catch up. 1/5/2023 - Day 3: The five seeds that germinated look healthy. The Grand Prix 3 has some leaf curl on it's first set of leaves, but I'm not worried. Still nothing from Grand Prix 4. Cups are all still wet enough so not much else to do but wait at this point. They have been averaging about 85° with 80% RH. 1/6/2022: the new Grand Prix 4 has germinated, but it has not pushed through the soil yet. I cand see the soil bulging, so I'm thinking tomorrow! The other 5 are looking good and the cover crop on the bed is coming in strong. 1/7/2023: The replacement Grand Prix #4 sprouted! Now let's hope I get at least two female of the Grand Prix for the 3x3. It's a waiting game now.

2024-08-06 They began brilliantly, with every seedling emerging to greet the world. Their journey continued with remarkable performance, thriving in every environment they faced. From their first moments in the nursery, to their time in the adolescent chamber, and even weeks outdoors braving cold and rainy days, these resilient plants rose to every challenge. No matter where they were placed, they flourished with unwavering determination. Their final stage in the flowering room was a testament to their strength and adaptability. For me, they proved to be a joy to cultivate. The key to their success? Simply providing ample water, especially during the crucial final flowering phase. The result? Luscious bud formations adorning the colas, a sight that filled me with pride and satisfaction. I'm thrilled with the outcome of this grow. Stay tuned for the smoking report, where I'll delve into the nuances of the buds' aroma and flavor profile. Smokereport does not work so i do it manually Apricot Oreoz are classified as " hard Hitter" and thats what they are, indeed. i gave some testers away and i got one uniquie Response. smoking one bowl and your day is done. i mean up to 5 hours couchlock. not my kind of desire. but there are surely PPl who need it, and like it best for medical purpose, you sleep like a Baby, your stress is gone, and pain sleeps too perfect for that nice yield and very good for extracts

The plants have been flushing for almost a week now. Really starting to change colors. I can't wait to see how much I get from them.

Día 54 (10/03) Riego 1,25 Litro H20 + Wholly Base 2,5 ml/l + Solid Green 2 ml/l + Early Flower 1,25 ml/l de Gen1:11 TDS 1033 PPMs - pH 6,51 Día 55 (11/03) Defoliation time! Con la increíble ayuda de @miyaguiokpolilla, @dogdoctorofficial y @growwithflow420 hice la defoliación recomendada exactamente después de 21 días cambiada a 12/12 Consejos de defoliación - Elimine menos del 20% de las hojas de abanico y solo las hojas de abanico - Retirar el tercio inferior de la planta, incluidas las ramitas. - Retirar las hojas en forma de abanico dirigidas hacia el interior de la planta. - Retire las hojas de abanico que dan sombra a los futuros cogollos. Día 56 (12/03) Esperando algo de estrés tras la defoliación... Han crecido 2 centímetros en 24 horas 😍🚀 Día 57 (13/03) Riego 1,25 Litro H20 + Wholly Base 2,5 ml/l + Solid Green 2 ml/l + Early Flower 1,25 ml/l de Gen1:11 TDS 1043 PPMs - pH 7,0 Las plantas muestras una ligera deficiencia de CalMag. Voy a subir el pH a 7.0 en este riego para mejorar la biodisponibilidad Día 58 (14/03) Siguen con su crecimientos, los cogollos formándose y las hojas de azúcar empezando a llenarse de resina Parece que la corrección de la deficiencia de CalMag ha sido muy efectiva! No hay más manchas y las plantas no paran! Día 59 (15/03) Como mañana me voy a Spannabis 😍 voy a adelantar 1 día el riego reduciéndolo a 1 litro Riego 1 Litro H20 + Wholly Base 2,5 ml/l + Solid Green 2 ml/l + Early Flower 1,25 ml/l de Gen1:11 TDS 1080 PPMs - pH 6,57 Día 60 (16/03) Spannabis time! 🚀 Día 61 (17/03) Spannabis time! 🚀 💦Nutrients by Gen1:11 - www.genoneeleven.com 🌱Substrate PRO-MIX HP BACILLUS + MYCORRHIZAE - www.pthorticulture.com/en/products/pro-mix-hp-biostimulant-plus-mycorrhizae

I love the strain and my first autoflower did not disappoint. She grew surprisingly bushy, and she really got chunky near the end! Super happy with how she turned out. The extra couple weeks really made a difference and she smells like fruity pebbles. Delicious! Hanging for 5-7 days before stored for curing. Did final trim and storage for the buds, 50 gram dry weight total. They were more on the lighter side as far as density goes. But smell good and the high is great and was fun to grow! Was able to successfully breed her with a Durban Poison male and look forward to seeing the super sativa babies to come. All good things. Here is to the next round, cheers! 😎

First defoliation this week, took off all the lower leaves as they weren't getting much light and there's plenty of green leaves around the buds, looks nice at the base now. I discovered that the ppm runoff was 3500 so I've been pouring the nutrients solution into the top by the litre and letting it drain back to my reservoir, I'm using the flowering res from my other grow, which is 1:2:2 and 1500ppm. She appeared to be growing really slowly with small buds, but I had a look at a two week old photo and I must have lost track of time, as she had only just begun to flower. Feels more like four weeks! So now I'm wondering what more she can do. Stay tuned this could be exciting. I'm excited anyway. Nothing like what I expected. Updated some more shots, I only now just realised that I can hold the plant upside down or at any angle under the lights to get the type of bud shots that are normally impossible.

Had to abandon stardawg as room wasnt available under flowering light. RQS purple queen back from issues hoping to pull her back.Changed nutrients to Megacrop,responding well. Happy growing Nugz 🤞🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🍁 🍁🍁🍁 Breeder-Royal queen seeds purple queen auto x1 🍁🍁🍁 Light-Voost VST 120 veg,VST 240 flowering https://voost.com/ 🍁🍁🍁 Seedbanks-garden of green,Expert seeds,Royal queen seeds https://gardenofgreenseedbank.com/ https://www.royalqueenseeds.com/

Dry weight of quality buds was 34g. I don’t wet weigh as it’s completely pointless. Quite a lot of trim for the hash bag. Tastes great

it's always a pleasure to do business with Barney's Farm!!! They have never let me down even once!! Even in the worst situations and conditions they have always been able to bring out the best for me!! I really enjoyed forcing these plants to see their reactions, but I wouldn't do it again as a technique because it only serves to keep the canopy low but not to increase the yields...or...at least in my case I didn't find it of fundamental importance....maybe a simple cut of the apical top and that was it! but that's fine!😋

-Decided to move the girls around, they were missing out on some AM sun and were blocking each other from direct sunlight. Thank god I had help because they were heavy! -Really had to tie them up as a ton of the branches started to break at the main stem as they were just getting too heavy. - BC2, and both WWs have visibly started to flower. Both Blue Cookies show very different phenos 1. -After a 1 week flush I started transitioning to flowering nutes, will go full strength next week. -Got rid of 1 caterpillar and put down some ant traps, the biggest pest is the planthoppers, I try and kill everyone I can see, but they keep coming back, there’s not a ton but they’re persistent. -Excited to see the weight these girls can pack on. This is my 2nd grow ever and 1st outside so I’m learning a lot! -Thanks for all the help and encouragment!

6 weeks old C/Mass clone mum we took about 5 cuttings from her so she's going to be fat already she has lots of branches growing off her short internode spacing so tight bud formation. As you can see we have opened her up without damaging her so no recovery or time wasted. We have pulled down all the main branches with soil clamps (fantastic) Its like a rib cage pull down and secure branches then all the small what would have been not much will now become much, much more. she has 3 weeks now to transform into a tree. The 3 girl scout cookies are the little supporters put in the 3 corners their autos from weed seed express{big up dem} for the freebies, the other 3 are for different projects. so here we are.. I know now not to overwater dem because my self contained unit contains the moisture hence da reader always in the soil to give me the correct reading. ph, ppm, and temp simple get a reader😇😇

Solid week of growth, looking and smelling amazing.

Looks healthy to me have just started using nutrients from bio biz cal mag bloom and grow I’m currently on day 25 of vegative any advice will be appreciated

Struggling with temps this week, heat wave in uk and tent getting up to 32c during the day. Bought a dehumidifier for the final few weeks of flowering so hopefully can get it down to at least 40% and should cool down this week. Suffering from nite burn on the gorilla glue, think it maybe due to plant taking in nutrients too fast due to the heat so have scaled down for now. Having said all this still really happy with how my first grow is going and now can’t wait to see the final outcome! Happy growing!
