It's been a journey. I have been growing this longer than most of my plants because I really wanted to get big. It filled in nicely after a lot of topping and FIMing. A couple issues with pH sent me back at the end but it was ok. I'm really excited to try this cheese strain since I don't think I've grown another cheese strain before. Overall I would definitely say this was a good plan to grow. 💚🌱✌️

These girls are wild. I did a Trichome check yesterday and I don't have many clear ones they are almost ready to go. I'm still taking off larger vegetation getting in the way of lights and air circulation. I've also increased my intake fan to cool down my tent more and my heater has been off for weeks. The buds are extremely dense and sticky and they're giving off a wicked aroma. Very pleased with this strain and the ease of this grow. I'm feeding full strength calmag (0-0-0) and sulfur-free blackstrap molasses every watering with very small dose of a p-k booster every third watering. Im also using Orca liquid mycorrhizal as much as I can.

Hello my friends, ...May 30, 2022....Day N°79.. ...Flowering day N°23... My two Feminized Royal THCV are fine and beautiful, they are monster plants, the stretching seems stabilized and the flowers smells awesome. #1...130cm #2.. 130cm I give them water with a tablet of Easy Bloom and a tablet of Easy Micronutrients from RQS Organics Nutrients. They are under a MarsHydro TSW 2000 at 60% of power and at 20cm of the canopy. www.royalqueenseeds.com www.mars-hydro.com Thank you very much for passing by. Wish you the best with your green projects, peace. See you soon 💨💨💨

I purchased these seeds along with 100+ others (individual seeds, not packs) in late 2006 and early 2007 by sending Western Union money orders to the UK in birthday cards along with my seed order. My only recourse was crossing my fingers and hoping that my seeds would eventually arrive. What I found was that the “Buy it Now” option on Seedbay turned out to be pretty reliable. They used to have a Nirvana 4 pack deal for a very reasonable price ($50, I think). European seed producers at the time were very guarded with the lineage in their crosses, but the common thought was that Nirvana was taking known elite Dutch cultivars of the time and breeding them with a Skunk #1 male and producing ‘knock offs’. AK-48 was AK-47xSk1, Blue Mystic = Blueberry x Sk1, Bubblicious = Bubble GumxSk1, Jock Horror = Jack x Sk1. The point being, there ended up being a lot of variation in packs, but also some keepers were there to be found. I did some growing at that time, but ended up buying a ton of seeds that I never used. As a daily user for almost 30 years now, self sufficiency made/makes a lot of sense. A couple years ago I decided to get back into growing my own herb after being disappointed and underwhelmed with the quality of flower from the dispensaries.

Week 11 All is under control: plants are growing correctly, healthy, deep green… perfect size, a few weeks before flowering cycle; I did a second topping week 10 on everyone (+6 nodes): I would have a maximum size around 150 cm for discretion and space. Still Aphids problem on the Royal Moby and I treated leaves by hand with Soap…making a mistake: too late in the morning so the sun burned some leaves. This insects are still there but the infestation is contained for the moment. I sprayed Neem oil on all plants. Added more soil in each pot : 1.5/2L of humus worm + guano bat. I observed a sort of burn on lhe extremity of leaves: possibly a sign of nitrogen excess. I stopped nutrients for a while, adding just enzyme and Alga Mic. Watering around 1.25L/2 days Daylight 15h30 - 6h25/21h55 Sunny days, cloudy sometimes, windy (NNE) T°= 13ºC N / 21°C D Humidity 67%

Absolutely amazed at the growth over the last week. Gave the plants their first (tiny) nute feed at 10 days old, 50% of recommended amounts. No problems with temp after lowering light. GG has the tallest and shortest plants, CC are all way more consistent in size and shape. All plants bar baby GG are on third set of "5" leaves. Keen to start LST soon, will probably top GG1 at around day 21, and play rest by ear.

Week 5 of flower and stretch has been excessive in these F1 testers. Buds have been slow to develop and supercroppibg of 3 tops was necessary to maintain canopy consistency. The hollow stems are a good sign of things to come but I will say I was hoping for much better bud development. Perhaps unrealistic with this sativa dominant cross but still. I guess as long as the buds are fire, we’re prepared to deal with less overall yield. The system continues to perform admirably. It’s one major drawback is having to recirculate through an additional drainage pump. The cheap bilge pump we wired into the tray failed and flooded out a portion of the basement - my fault really as I knew the pump was crap and should’ve changed it earlier. Still can’t get past how much more simplistic a gravity dependent system is but despite that - I have no complaints about this equipment and it will get regular use regardless of any future set up changes. Alls good in da hood y’all👌🤟 Strain details She’s a mix of a particularly strong Northern Lights, crossed with a Spicy Bitch sativa hybrid. The hope is that we’ll be able to combine the overtly narcotic effects in the NL and mellow it out somewhat with the quality daytime sativa effects found in the SB. Both strains feature numerous grower qualities. Both parents possessed vigour and resiliency, the SB particularly colourful in late flower. These beans were the product of a shotgun breeding run that presented an unexpected opportunity so there’s quite a bit of testing that should flow from the various F1’s we’ve produced.

7/21 Battling a strange deficiency that has spread to one of the buds, almost positive its a calcium issue so I gave #3 a 1l of water with cal-mag. Things looking great otherwise. 7/22 cut the bud that was having strange issues and there was no mold inside. Dried it for a day, smoked the most messed up part just to see and it was fine so unless it was a heat issue I have no clue what happened. Otherwise everything is still looking great 7/23 Cut a couple of the main colas because quite a few of the trichomes were turning amber. It may have been a bit too early, bit I will monitor the rest of the plants to see how the develop.

I love this time of the week, when I sit down and think about what to write here. It reminds me of how simple this organic living soil method is. There’s really not much to say!! The girls are doing great, the leaves have a slightly yellow hue, but the plants will get their final top dress today (day 103, F43) and should be done 2-3 weeks from now. So excited!!! My little population of hypoaspis mites seems to get out of hand. I’ll admit, it scares me and I can get quite hostile with them. I’ve made my peace with them for now though! I’m sorry little guys 💔 The smells are so intense. Reminds me of those pineapple cheese sticks at parties. Absolute stank city, I can’t wait to smell them post-cure 😎 See you next week growmies! These buds are already fat, God knows what they’ll be like when I chop 😍😍🍃🍍

Firstly we've place the seeds in water for 72 hours. Then place in Jiffy pods, then placed in a mini hothouse under 2x 28watt halogen bulbs until day 14. Then they'll be placed in large 16-20 litre pot, then placed in the greenhouse to live out their life. Day 2. Gelato Auto have been planted in the jiffy pod. Day 3. Auto Ultimate and Gorilla Glue Auto have been planted in the Jiffy pods. Day 4. Halogen lights too hot, so now they are in the bathroom under one of the ceiling heat light. It's perfect, the humidity ranges around 78 - 83% and the temperature ranges between 18.2 to 21.8 degrees over the 24 hr period Day 6. The Gelato Auto has sprouted along with 6/7 Auto Ultimate. Leaving one more to come plus the Auto Gorilla Glue. Auto Gorilla glue and Auto Gelato were free seeds with the Auto Ultimate. So they'll becoming along for the ride. Day 7. All of the Auto Ultimate have sprouted, leaving just the Gorilla Glue Auto to come. It's has a tap root, it just hasn't escaped from the seed yet Day 9. 5 Auto Ultimate have been planted into 16 litre buckets and placed under 200watt HPS bulb 18/6. The rest will be planted on day 11. Day 10. Gorilla Glue is gone. When you see a seed case that won't fully open with a very small tap root. It's either delicately remove the case and membrane and hope it'll do something. If you break it, waste of time. If you don't, waste of nutrients and soil on a maybe so opted to say good bye. It's a free seed so no loss. Plant the Auto Gelato and the two Auto Ultimate tomorrow morning. Day 11. 2 Auto Ultimate and the Gelato Auto have been planted outside in the hot house. The other 5 will join in week three of growth. It's said to grow then under lights for the first three weeks. So we will the difference between starting outdoor and starting indoor. This is my comparison Grow. Day 12. Hot house has built-in misting system to help with it humidity levels. I do a feed once a week with fish fertilizer. Soil mixed with dynamic lifter & slow release fertilizer pellets. Mist will go off at 9am, 2 pm and 930pm. More often or less weather permitting. Hot house open during the day and closed in the afternoon and throughout the night. All is doing well in the hothouse. The 5 Auto Ultimate indoors are doing great as well. So far so good. Day 14. Germination period has ended. We only lost the Gorilla Glue Auto. When the 5 indoor ones reach three weeks they will join the others outside, to complete. MH light now set at 400watt

11/11/18 Start of week 3 of flower. The ladies were feed a bloom aerated tea. I only use organic natural ingredients. Nothing out a bottle. Ingredients in ACT Alfalfa Meal, Kelp Meal, Coconut water, Honey, Sillica, Organic Bloom food NPK 3-12-12. After using the Aerated tea I top dressed the plants with the leftofter organic material. 11/12/18 Can't rave enough about BLACK MAGIC potting soil. This grow have been an absolute breeze. No issues whatsoever. Pruned under canopy again today. Plants are beautiful. I HUGGED THEM TODAY!😀 11/13/18 Today when the lights came on I was devastated. One of my rotary fans feel and completely crushed one of my plants. Luckly it was the runt. Its not died but its smashed up pretty bad. I was horrified. Should I pull her? I guess I watch to see if she can recover but the brances are ruined. 11/17/18 The plant that had the fan on it recovered quite nicely and the twisted brances even stood back up. Amazing plant.

4/27 I'm fairly certain that I watered everything. If not I only would've held off on a smaller plant that was about 17 grams over dry weight. Pretty sure I did them all though. Having a scale makes watering in these cups SO much easier. Had a rough few days with a lot going on so i uavent been writing as much. Transplant will be happening soon. Most plants have or are close to having there fourth node. I'm not going to top/FIM until after transplant and they've settled in nicely. The Kush plants are getting close to needing that transplant. I'm waiting for the leaves to go beyond the edge of the cup. Despite the fact that some havecthree fingered leaves hanging on their own stem. The transplants will go into 1/2 happy frog half ocean forest. All in all things are going good. Some plants will probably be transplanted this week. Plants in this diary are different ages. 4/28 I watered what needed it by the scale. A few were close but within range so I left them alone. I'll check later in the day and water when they are within range. It sucks sometimes because I need to make that decision over just a few points sometimes. I usually do it based on plant size and response. Oh well, these girls are out of seedling stage thats for sure. Realistically this week is closer to week one of veg then the seedling emerging on day one when i started this. I just wanted to get this diary started. Then I had to get replacement seeds as some didn't germinate. These girls are looking pretty good so ill probably save the other beans i have for next year. I MAY do a lilac/diesel auto from Ethos when it gets warmer but we'll see. I am wicked excited for this season. Planning to clean and sanitize grow area and wash pots today. Everything seems to be doing amazing. 4/29 I watered a few but many weren't in range yet. I'll be there later this afternoon and check again. Boy things are going good. Planning to grab the rest of my soil this morning. Things are popping off. Transplants will be coming soon. I just want that big rootball first before they go in the 1 gals. I picked up my soil but they shorted me 3 bags of haply frog. It was like a war zone there. Construction everywhere and people hollering at each other over the mechanical racket. Only the drive through was open. I did some quick calculations to reach what I needed for soil bit after they told me to go back in because "they didn't have it." I stop and get out and it went back on my card. Apparently they were hassling my legally blind disabled wife to move the car. She offered them the opportunity to do so but they would need to deal with me after. I wasn't in anyone's way. The car behind me went around me just fine. Anyway I remembered the little local store one town over. Ten minute drive and they have a deal where if you buy 5 bags of hf you it's only SLIGHTLY more than 3. I headed out that way but had to come home due to an emergency. They've got a bunch and they aren't in the city. I'll make it over there this afternoon or in the morning and pick up the rest of my happy frog. No roots organic 707 this year. It's the same price as ocean forest and I really like ocean forest. Lots see how they do with just happy frog and ocean. 4/30 Watered the front row of the aerogarden. Others seemed to be within range. Pretty sure I watered everything under the L.E.D. Things are moving forward. I've got a lot of work to do. I'm going to pick up my remaining soil. I need to clean and sterilize grow bags and the 1 gallon pots and I need to clean and sanitize the grow cage itself and do any little repairs that may need it. So far I'm pretty happy. I don't want to make a mistake and transplant to early. I think we may have an early season this year. It's been nice the past few days. 5/1 It's been hot the past few days. It's looking like we are going to have an early season which is totally OK with me. I WATERED TODAY. I think I did the entire aero garden. I watered the majority under the l.e.d as well. I think when it gets that close (weight wise) it doesn't REALLY matter whether they get that shot glass or not. As long as the weight is like 217 or something. Some plants have leaves going over the sides of the cup. I transplanted to early last time with seeds. Not REALLY to early but they could've stayed in the cups longer. And they take up less space that way but within a week I bet these girls will be transplanted and spending some time outside. I'm looking forward to it. 5/2 Plants are looking great. Watered everything I think. Some weights were high (e.g. 216) but I watered them anyway. I'm starting to be able to squeeze the cups and feel the roots. After I run these few errands and bring wife to the soctors I'll get the rest of my soil and I'll clean my 1 gal pots. The past few days they could've gotten some sunlight. It's been really nice out. Raining today. EDIT: PICKED UP THE REST OF THE SOIL FOR THE SEASON. PLANTS ARE DOING GOOD. SINCE THE FIRST BATCH WAS A LITTLE STUNTED SOME OF THE OTHERS ARE IN SIMILAR STAGES. I "COULD" TRANSPLANT NOW BUT ITS EASIER DEALING WITH THEM IN THE SOLOS. AS SOON AS I TRANSPLANT THEY'LL JUMP IN SIZE. I'LL NEED TO PUT AT LEAST ONE HPS LIGHT UP AS WELL. HOWEVER, IT'S BEEN NICE ENOUGH HERE THAT THEY'LL BE ABLE TO SPEND TIME OUTSIDE DURING PART OF MOST DAYS. LAST TIME I DID SEEDS I WENT WITH 3 GALLONS BUT IM GOING INTO 1'S THIS YEAR WITH FINAL GROW BAGS RANGING FROM 20G-50G. I USIALLY USE A MIX OF FFOF, FFHF, AND ROOTS ORGANIC 707 IN EQUAL PARTS. THIS YEAR I'M USING ONLY THE FOX FARM SOILS. IVE DONE THIS BEFORE WITH GOOD RESULTS. 5/3 WATERED EVERYTHING BUT ONE TENTH PLANET AND THE ONE BEHIND IT WHICH I BELIEVE IS CHEM DOG #4. I'M FAIRLY CERTAIN I WATERED EVERYTHING UNDER THE L.E.D. These girls are ready for a new home. There's a couple that I Gould hold off on but some are at the point where they NEED A transplant. IT would be much easier to light and carry around in these cups but I want to veg indoors and on nice days bring them outside to harden off. There's only a COUPLE slow starters that could wait but only a couple. I have this year's soil. Just need to wash the pots and mis the soil and transplant. Today is busy but tomorrow is open so I'll be playing it by ear.

🌱✨ Super Sativa Seed Club Week 5 (Pre-Flower) Report! ✨🌱 Hey fellow green thumbs! 🌿 We’ve just wrapped up the first week of the flowering phase with our Auto Fast Pete and Auto Northern Dragon Fuel from Super Sativa Seed Club. This week has been all about preparing for an explosive flowering phase and optimizing our grow environment. Let’s dive into the details! 🌟 Week 5 (Pre-Flower) Progress: Day 29-31: Transition to Flowering • Auto Fast Pete: Our fast-growing friend is transitioning beautifully into the flowering phase. Pistils are emerging, marking the beginning of bud development. The plant is showing strong, healthy growth and a robust structure. 🌿🌸 • Auto Northern Dragon Fuel: This resilient plant is also entering the pre-flower stage. The first pistils are visible, and the plant is stretching and preparing for full bloom. The vegetative growth has set a solid foundation for a bountiful flowering period. 🌱✨ Day 32-34: Room Organization & Autopot System • Room Setup: This week, we reorganized the grow room, placing our Auto Fast Pete and Auto Northern Dragon Fuel to the far left of the tent. This strategic placement ensures they receive optimal light and airflow. 🌿💡 • Autopot System: We turned on the Autopots, an innovative system that automates the watering process, ensuring the plants receive consistent hydration. The Autopots use gravity to deliver water from a reservoir to the plants, allowing them to take up water as needed. This method promotes healthy root development and prevents over or under-watering. 🌱💧 Day 35: Nutrient Changes & Environmental Conditions • Nutrient Strategy: We’ve stopped direct feedings and are now testing how the plants do with only the organic nutrition in the soil, supplemented by regulator and CalMag in the reservoir. This approach aims to maximize the benefits of organic soil nutrition while ensuring the plants get essential minerals. 🌿 • Reservoir Details: • TDS: 400 • Temperature: 18°C • pH: 6.2 • Environmental Conditions: • Temperature: 31°C • Humidity: 51% These conditions create an optimal environment for flowering, ensuring healthy development and growth. 🌡️💧 🌟 Care Tips: • Light: Keeping our full-spectrum LED light at an optimal distance (18-24 inches) to ensure even light distribution. The plants are responding well to the consistent light schedule. 💡 • Autopot System: The Autopot system ensures a steady water supply, reducing the need for frequent manual watering. This system is great for maintaining consistent soil moisture, which is crucial during the flowering phase. 🌊 • Nutrient Monitoring: Keeping an eye on the reservoir’s TDS and pH levels to ensure the plants receive the right amount of nutrients and minerals. This week, we’re focusing on organic soil nutrition supplemented with regulator and CalMag. 🌿 • Environment Control: Maintaining a stable temperature of 31°C and humidity around 51% to create the perfect conditions for flowering. Adjusting airflow and positioning to optimize plant health. 🌡️💧 🌟 Genetics Spotlight: Auto Fast Pete: • Characteristics: Rapid transition to flowering, strong structure, early bud development. This strain is a reliable and fast-growing option for any grower. • Future Expectations: Swift bud development and resin production in the coming weeks. Anticipate a dense and flavorful harvest. Auto Northern Dragon Fuel: • Characteristics: Resilient transition to flowering, robust structure, visible pistils. This strain promises high yields and resilient plants. • Future Expectations: Significant bud growth and increased resin production. This plant is gearing up for a heavy yield. 🌍🌿 Fun Fact: Did you know? 🌿✨ Autoflowers begin flowering based on their age, not light cycles. This means they transition to flowering typically around 4-5 weeks after germination, making them a great choice for quick harvests! For all the in-depth action and detailed explanations, head over to my YouTube channel! 🎥✨ I’m sharing all the tips, tricks, and step-by-step guides to help you get the best results from your grow. This week has been particularly exciting, and there’s so much more to explore and learn together! 👉 Join me on YouTube Link is in my profile 👈 🌟 Conclusion: Week 5 marks the beginning of the pre-flower phase, with both Auto Fast Pete and Auto Northern Dragon Fuel showing promising signs of bud development. With the Autopot system in place and our focus on organic soil nutrition, we’re set for an exciting flowering period. Stay tuned for Week 6, and happy growing! 🌿💚✨ #SuperSativaSeedClub #Week5Report #FastPete #NorthernDragonFuel #PlantMagic #GardeningJoy #NatureLovers #PlantPower #Inspire #GrowYourOwn #YouTubeChannel Germination method 🌱 @thecannakan Genetics @supersativaseedclub_official Nutrition @aptusholland 🌿 @aptus_world 🌎 @aptus_es 🌍 @aptusbrasil 🌱 @aptus_thailand 🌿 @aptus_portugal 🌳 @aptususa_official 🍀 @aptusplanttechnz 🌺 @aptusplanttechaus 🍃 Ambient controls🎮 @trolmaster.eu @trolmaster.eu.support @trolmaster.support @trolmaster.agro Soil @promix_growers_eur @promix_cannabis LED - @lumatekeu Watering- @autopot_usa @autopot_global Love and attention- @dogdoctorofficial As always thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all , this journey of mine wold just not be the same without you guys, the love and support is very much appreciated and i fell honored and so joyful with you all in my life 🙏 With true love comes happiness 💚🙏 Always believe in your self and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart , be a giver and the universe will give back to you in ways you could not even imagine so 💚 More info and complete updates from all my adventures can be found ⬆️link in the profile description ⬆️ Friendly reminder all you see here is pure research and for educational purposes only 💚Growers Love To you All 💚
