🌱🌿🌸SUMMARY🌸🌿🌱 I started this crop with 4 plants as you can see in the pics, 2 autoflowers by RQS and 2 photoperiodics. My plan was as follows: grow the two autoflowering plants until harvest and in the meantime do a long vegetative period for the two photoperiodic plants, and then proceed with the switch. One autoflowering plants, the Titan F1, did not respond well to the training and I preferred to remove it on week 5. Fortunately there were no problems with the other three plants (I made a different diary focused on the two photoperiodic). Milky Way F1 grew in a space dedicated to her of 90 cm x 40 cm (0.36 m2), under a 150 watt lamp which in the meantime also illuminated the other plants. 🌱 GERMINATION (2 days) Seed in a glass of EC 0.4 tap water for 10 hours, then in root riot and under the lamp. It sprouted after 48 hours from dry seed. 🌿 GROWING STAGE (3 weeks and half) During the 23 days after sprouting she had an impressive growth ratio. When she reached 25 cm in height I decided to bent the main stem to the side. On day 24 I opened the canopy with some tie, then I removed a good amount of leaves. The key with this kind of auto, the F1, is not stress them in the wrong moment but if you want to boost them yield you need to do some train, carefully! During the veg stage PH was always between 5.5 and 5.9, about EC I started with 0.6 and was 1 on the last veg week. 🌸 FLOWERING STAGE (7 weeks) She began the flowering stage on day 26 from dry seed (was 20 cm height after the bending) and by the end of the stretching she more than doubled the height, reaching 46 cm despite the LST on week 3 and 4. During the flowering I just removed some leaves on week 4 and 8. The light cycle I used is 18/6 and the last two weeks I lowered the light hours to 16/8 first and 14/10 then. I chopped her when trichomes were 95% milky and 5% amber. That gave me a very balanced high. During the flowering stage PH was always between 5.9 and 6.2, about EC I started with 1.6 and was 2 on the last week before flush. ✅ HARVEST - From dry seed to harvest: 74 days (2 days germination + 23 days veg + 49 days flo). - Chopped after 4 days flush, no dark time; - Wet trim, removed fan leaves. This plant had a ridiculous calyx-to-leaf ratio, it was just big buds! ✅ DRYING STAGE - Time: 15 days; - Average: 18° C - 60% RH. - After that I made a dry trim, removed branches and sugar leaves. ⚖️ DRY WEIGHT - 110 gr very frosty buds, no larf 😁 ✅ CURING STAGE - Curing is done after 45 days with Boveda 62%.

Week 16 (Harvest) 1-2 Drying day 1 Temperature: 24.5 to 19.5 degrees Humidity: 65% to 50% The girls are ready to be harvested! Before chopping them down, i took a lot of pictures. I was able to remove most of the soil from the Biscotti #2 to see the rootball. I hang the plants as a whole to have a slow dry. The exhaust fan is on setting 4. 2-2 Drying day 2 Temperature: 19.1 to 17.5 degrees Humidity: 62% to 57% I changed the exhaust fan to setting 2 because setting 4 was a bit high in my opinion. 3-2 Drying day 3 Temperature: 19.9 to 18 degrees Humidity: 62% to 59% Today i checked up on the drying plants, and i see there are some buds touching other buds, so i chopped the plants in half. The buds are still to the main stem for a slow dry, but are hanging more spreaded out to prevent any budrot issues. I changed the exhaust fan to setting 1, as someone told me that it was enough air movement for drying. 4-2 Drying day 4 Temperature: 19.8 to 18.5 degrees Humidity: 62% to 59% 5-2 Drying day 5 Temperature: 19.9 to 18.8 degrees Humidity: 62% to 59% Today i checked on the drying plants and the buds are shrinking a bit, they are getting a little bit crispy on the outside aswell, I hope they wont dry as fast, and i aim for a 12/14 day dry. For the next grow i already germinated 2x Chemdog (GreenHouseSeeds) 2x Gorilla Kush (GanjaFarmerSeeds) and 1x Deep Candy CBD (GreenHouseSeeds) And I have some upgrades planned aswell! I bought a autopot kit with 4 15L pots, this way the plants will have water and air 24/7 whenever they need it. I have seen alot of great results using autopots so i am very exited to try it out! And I bought a small camera so i can shoot some weekly timelapses! Feel free to Follow me if you like to get notified for the upcoming diaries! Thanks for checking out this diary, peace! (More harvest updates coming in the next couple of days!) Huge thank you to Zamnesia for the seeds, and Plagron for the collection of nutrients, and the opportunity to participate in the POWERBUDS contest! It was a fun and learningful adventure!

Get my scope tomorrow to find out finally what is going on with the trichomes!

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! 😎🙏~

Harvest time is here for Grandaddy Bruce, dense sticky frosty buds. Very happy with the results so far, for the first time growing this strain. Will update in 7 days with dry weight and smoke report. 48 grams dry, smooth smoke.

She is coming to the end now. Big fat juicy buds and a crazy sweet smell. I alreadt know this will be a good one. I will chop her this week and then update with a harvest and smoke report in a few weeks.

1. LABS - I suggest using distilled water for the entire process ( no chlorine or chloramine). I also suggest the type of rice product shown ( 1/2 cup), it has red, brown, white, and black rice blended together. You get the benefits of each type. 2. Take the rice that was used in making the rice rinse for labs and boil it in 3 cups of water for 30 mins. Strain the rice out. Add 1 TBSP molasses per 300 mls. Use 300 mls of the above mixture during your watering cycles. It contains starches, b vitamins, aminos, trace minerals, calcium, magnesium, iron, phosphorus, potassium, and some nitrogen. The ppm’s are not higher than 200 ( if using distilled water). This is ONLY used if your plants are healthy. If your plants are sick…this will NOT help them. It will make stuff worse!!! The Hulk-Berry got a new home. 1 tsp 7-3-1, 1/2 tsp 0-12-0, 1/2 tsp Langbeinite, 1 TBSP 2-2-2, 3 TBSP 4-3-3, worm castings, recharge (1/32 tsp) into the soil ( Mother Earth). The 3 RuntZ are coming back from slow growth at the outset. I added LABS, Lentil SST, Photosynthesis Plus to the media. I did a foliar spray with recharge. 24-36 hours later the leaves exploded with growth and height. I added ZERO nutrients!!! I only used natural inputs and bacteria to get the root zone back in order. 11-3. Things are all in check! The LABS, SST’s and Rice wash have gotten the 3 RuntZ back on track. The Hulkberry is in full swing. I think I can get to 3 feet by flower time with the Hulkberry 11-5 All is well today!!! Everyone is very happy after the cal-mag, Photosynthesis Plus, kelp bath

Outdoor Auto #1 LSD-25 fastbuds lsd-25 auto 6th November 2020 These two are doing considerably better than the other two autos I have growing. Atleast these girls have some visible trichs and smell pretty good too. I will give them some Bio bloom from greenhouse feeding later today and hopefully it will make them even better. Cheers as usual for stopping by 👍

Got super nice stuff. As rly got eight shooters (110 gr/1plant). Easy to grow, good reaction for scrog, defoliation with big harvest. Will grow this stuff again.

| 📅 Week 5 | Days 29 - 35 | 💡 562w 📏42' | | ☔ 29%-38% | | 🌡️️🌞 76 - 79 | | 🌡️️🌑 73 - 75 | 12/07 Weekly Reservoir swaps on all plants to clean them and give fresh nutrients. 2 plants repeated week 4 nutrients with no micro and the other two (including the focus plant in the lapse) are accurate with the Dairy. 12/08 PHed all plants to 5.8 and updated the LST on all the plants. Spread some of plants out to get better lighting as I raised the light s few inches. 12/09 Topped off the reservoirs and PHed them to 5.6 because they have been rising alot. Rotated plants half turn. Did more LST for more light penetration. 12/10 Signs of preflower are starting to show on two plants and the tent is starting to get that flowering smell not to much longer until I need to hook up the carbon filter to stop the stench. 12/11 Updated front left and back left plants to week 5 nutrients with no Floramicro, because these plants hate nitrogen. PH in all reservoirs set to 5.6 12/12 PHed adjusted to 5.8 and topped off all the reservoirs. Did more LST and tucked plenty of leaves away for better light on new growth! 12/13 First real signs of Flower! PH adjusted to 5.8 and reservoirs topped off with water to keep the nutrient levels balanced. Lollipopped the front left plant for experimental purposes. These plants overall are doing fine and I have 2 different phenotypes displaying. One is extremely reactive to nitrogen and taller while the shorter phenotype is slightly less reactive to nitrogen (both hate it). I am pleased with the growth at this stage and the smell is just starting There is slight purple coloration displaying with the preflowers but nothing really noticeable yet. I am excited for the flowering to start so these girls can start showing their true colors 😍 edit: changed final picture for better lighting.

I soak the Root Riot cubes in their own Clonex solution and feed them with the rest until it's gone

good day friends! just keep on bloom :)

Week 9 ive stopped feeding and now I've begin flushing my first harvest is fastly approaching I had high standards I watched countless videos and looked at yalls diaries I want them big dense nugs I got lost In the sauce n almost forgot to enjoy the process this will be the first time I successfully growed anything let alone cannabis I enjoy the anonymous of being able. To share what I'm doing its like a secret society for cultivators ,farmers what ever u wanna call it but someone should really design an app

12-19 Shes aching for some cal/mag. So I gave her some. 5ml and some drops. 12-21 She thankful for the cal/mag, might need some more. 😂 Rough. Removed few lower not so sites. .

Flushing her, she smells amazing. First time growing this girl and she's already one of my favorite. I will not water her for the rest of the week to begin the drying process.

Unfortunately, one of the two seedlings succumbed to the intense sunlight exposure of a single day and exhibited classic signs of stress and stem damage, succumbing within the first week. With only one seedling remaining, I decided to proceed by faithfully following the established nutrient schedule. Here are the nutrients administered: May 8th: 250ml of water 0.5ml of RootJuice 0.5ml of BioHeaven 0.5ml of Activera EC: 450 nS pH: 6.5 May 10th: 350ml of water 1ml of RootJuice 1ml of FishMix 1ml of BioHeaven 1ml of Activera EC: 850 nS pH: 6.5

1/25/2024 Vegetation Week 3 Day 1- took 2 Tops today and cleaned up a few lower leaves that were hanging down. The FiM seems to have worked well and looks like I have three branches coming in where it was FiMed. 1/26/2024 Vegetation Week 3 Day 2- took 2 Tops from the sides and took a little of the foliage that was touching the lid. She seems to be doing very well.. Water change day tomorrow.. YAY!! will get a good picture of the roots and see how she is doing. 1/27/2024 Vegetation Week 3 Day 3- Water Change Day! I noticed a slight red coming in on the STEMS which I added a pinch of EPSOM salt to help correct. I added 36 Gallons of Water I added the following Nutes: Silica = .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil CalMag= .75Mil/Gal= 27Mil FloraMicro = 4.2Mil/Gal= 187Mil FloraGro= 3.8Mil/Gal= 137Mil FLoraBloom= 3.0Mil/Gal= 108Mil ORCA = .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil EPSOM- 1 big pinch 1/28/2024 Vegetation Week 3 Day 4- I cleaned her up just a little bit on stuff hanging down. I also made sure the PH is balanced so she could soak up the New Nutes. 1/29/2024 Vegetation Week 3 Day 5- I Got sick, Possibly food poisoned.. Luckily for me the system was able to do what it do and hold it down until I was feeling better. 1/30/2024 Vegetation Week 3 Day 6- I was still to sick to go to my grow room... Possibly food poisoned.. Luckily for me the system was able to do what it do and hold it down until I was feeling better. 1/31/2024 Vegetation Week 3 Day 7- First day back.. Her PH was down to 5.72 so I raised the PH back up closer to 6.0, I took a few pictures and got her height.. Feeling better through prayer so was able to get some pics today.
