Kept defoliating and spraying the plants with Cannacure every 3-4 days. I'll be on holiday tomorrow so my roommate will take care of the plants for 2.5 weeks. How much longer would you guys say until harvest? I'm not so sure, could be 10 days or 3 weeks if you ask me...

Day 45 - Found the GC's main branch broken this morning. My error was tying it down too much. Never had plants so big so I'm still learning the best way to LST them in order to fit them in my closet. Takin the broke with philosophy: I never topped a plant, so I'm curious to see how she will develop from now and how much she will yield. Keep growing and learning every day 🙏🏼💪🏼🌱 Day 48 - Ladies are stretching much more every day, going to be two big girls 😋😋😋

So far, so good. And now in the 5th week, all Sweet Seeds started flowering. However, Madame Jealousy is far from having enough of growth. One of my favorite features to observe in her: She takes her time. So far all phenotypes from the strain have been like this. As a result, it already feeds itself stably into the starting blocks. Makes sense.

Start of week 4 of flower! Off to a troubling start, as the light switched on over 1 hour ealiere than scheduled. I took a spare timer, and set it up to continue it's 12/12 schedule, but now moved one hour back. I cross my fingers they forgive me for this error.🙏 👽👉31/10 The day after watering and the day my timer messed up my 12/12 schedule. But hope it brings no problems. I defoliated lightly and only removed most under the SCROG line. Even a couple of underdevoloped branches that stretched below SCROG-net got cut. 👽👉 1/11 Been having a battle with humidity after watering, but upped my air circulation to help. 👽👉 2/11 Waterday* Upped my nutes on BioHeaven, BioGrow and BioBloom. 👽👉 3/11 They seem to be responding good to the upped nutrients. 👽👉 4/11 Humidity under control. 👽👉 5/11 The VPD on point, has really speed up the trichome production. 👽👉 6/11 Waterday* Stayed on the same schedule, as last watering. They seem very satisfied and no signs of mistreatment.

The plants are growing at a good rate now and drinking a litre each per day. I feed them by hand and each plant gets 2litres every other day. Didn't do anything else this week other than install the trellis on the last day. Love the way these genetics grow and fill out the tent. When I was growing the mother in the pheno hunt I remember remarking how well this plant took to being topped. These 2 plants are front and right in the timelapse video.

A sad week, I found bud rot and had to take my plants out and do a big check and remove all dense underdeveloped growth. It will be a pretty big hit on the yield I guess but the most important thing is learning and that I did. The bud rot could spread due to my RH being 65/70 at nights and it used to be +80 before, + bad airflow. I got new fans in the tent and my dehumidifier was ordered already but its not in yet. On the other side, the plants are looking pretty damn good, they smell amazing and 3 of the 4 plants is getting a very dense nug structure.

Beginning of week.. I went up a tad on the nutes today.. And went down on the light power last week.. It was about 65% - 70% power which was quite a bit, I guess.. I put it at 50% power and she is finally starting to get some height to her.. I noticed more pistils toward the very top. I really hope she doesn't start flowering too soon.. I'd like to get some LST done on her. But she is happy and healthy! Next day... Even more pistils! Its been awhile since I grew an auto.. So I kinda forgot how early pistils can start poppin out but still be in veg (preflower). I just really wanna turn this girl into a flat bush! 10 mins later... Ok.. So looking back at my other autos.. This is pretty typical for them to start showing preflower this early.. She should still have 2 or 3 more weeks of veg with preflower! Mid week.. This is a day early.. But close enough.. 3rd week and growth is beginning to explode! The very first node's branches aren't really doing much.. Plus they are damn near to the ground.. I'm wondering if I should just remove them.. Maybe not yet.. But soon.. Or when I finally apply some LST. She is doing great!... No deficiencies.. No excesses.. Autoflowers are a trip! Can't wait to see what she looks like in another 7 days! I wanna try to do the entire grow without removing much, if anything.. But if this bottom branch doesnt start doing something.. I'm gonna have to remove it.. Its just bothering me way too much lol. Actually mid week.. SoI have been noticing a little bit of clawing and darkness.. BUT ONLY on the new growth.. As the leaves get older they seem to straighten out and lighten up a bit.. But I'm pretty sure it's nitrogen toxicity.. So I went down from .66mL/L to .33mL/L.. I use 3L to water daily.. So basically 1mL per feeding of all the base nutrients and the CalMag.. The Floralicious Plus has a bit of nitrogen too so I went down a tad on that as well. I read someone else's grow that says these girls are a bit sensitive to nitrogen.. So that's where I'm at now. Flushed this morning, and now for a small feed tomorrow morning. Will be updating with pics at the end of this week. Later that night.. Went ahead and flushed with just 2L of pH'd water.. Going in - pH: 6.3 PPM: 240.. Runoff - pH: 6.1 PPM: 640... So the PPM is still a bit high, but during the feed tomorrow, it should go down some still.. I should have ALOT of runoff tomorrow. I had the same amount I normally do when I use 3L just from these 2L.. Just cuz its 12 hours early.. The medium was still nice and moist.. And will still be in the AM for the next fertigation. Next day... Waking up this morning, I found that the oldest set of leaves that had been clawed cleared up.. For the most part.. Still dark asf.. But not as much clawing..the newest set were still clawed tho.. Which is understandable.. I made 3L of nutes.. Only used 2L in the AM.. Going in pH: 6.3.. PPM: 420... Runoff pH: 6.2.. PPM: 480... Not bad.. And I still have 1L left over which I am going to have to give her later today.. And will update with the runoff info also. Some say not to worry about the runoff pH.. But I think that is only because when people see it really low, they tend to give make the nutes waaay too high in order to combat the low runoff.. I just make my nutes 6.5 till ai see the runoff coming out at the area that works best for my grows.. Which is 6.2 or 6.3.. Let me explain why I use 6.2 to 6.3... My first 2 grows in coco I was using 5.8 to 6.0.. It worked well in veg but it was only during the transition and beginning of flower that I had calcium defeciency.. GWE website said that in hydroponics/coco that calcium is best absorbed at 6.3 or so.. So ever since I've just ran my girls at 6.2 or 6.3.. No lower, no higher.. The entire grow.. And haven't had any issues with deficiencies since! So that is MY sweet spot.. I may let it drift to 6.1 or 6.4.. But I try not to, for the most part. Later that night... I went ahead and did 1L of pH'd water first.. Then did the 1L of nutrient water.. Runoff came out at 420 PPM 6.2 pH... Nice... Also, I went ahead and ponytailed the top and pulled some of the longer branches on top of the fan leaves.. I'm only going to keep it ponytailed for the rest of the day (6 hours left of lights on).. Never tried this before, but with these super fat indica leaves blocking literally every branch.. I figured it couldn't hurt to give it a try. I may do it for another 6 hours tomorrow.. But I havent thought that far into it yet. I just want her and her branches to be long enough to begin some LST by the beginning of next week.. And already more than halfway through this week. Happy with the way things are going, for the most part... Almost end of week.. Ponytailed her again for another 6 hours this morning.. Just trying to give the side branches a little head start before the LST next week. End of week.. Welp.. I couldn't wait one more day to apply some LST.. I went ahead and did it today.. I also removed the bottom node, leaves and branches.. They were weak branches and I figured I could get them to take root and breed some seeds with them using Collidail Silver method! I really like how these branches have grown on this girl! It's like they already grew into a lollipop!!! Still only using the light at 50% power.. Which is helping keep the temps down a bit... Niceeee... I haven't defoliated anything (except the bottom node due to very weak branches and horrible looking leaves.. Which I'm guessing is because they were so low, possibly getting nutrient water on them during watering) but again, cloning those to breed with! She has completely exploded this week! Very happy with this girl! On to the next week!!!...

23.08.24: I've done considerable defoliation. Also, FBP1 and FBP3 have grown all over the place. The stems are also relatively weaker as they've grown so much. (Photos above). Being as the plants were looking a bit delicate, I added some string and tied the side branches lightly to keep them a bit more compact. Additionally, FBP2 has a considerable amount of buds on the main cola. So I've added a plant stake, and I just tied string around the stake and the main stalk. The humidity has been able to stay under 53%. That's with 3 dehumidifiers. So I'm pretty sure that's about as good as it will probably be. I've had to lower the watering frequency on FBP3, as I overwatered only this plant. and also added too much Nitrogen in. As a result all the leaves are looking droopy. I'm really not sure how this will pan out, as they all still look like they're weeks away from harvest. Anyway, I'll update throughout the week. 25.8.24: I was tending to the garden a majority of the day, and realised that a branch had broken on FBP2. I acted quickly to insert plant stakes, to provide the heavily laden branches additional support. See photos above. The branch was bent or snapped, but still in one piece. I used duct tape to carefully put it back together. Before making a stake for it. Silica, apparently wasn't quite enough to get the FBP2 through the whole way. The flowers are very heavy and dense. I have also given the plants water yesterday with concentrations of the following nutrients, per plant. ● 9ltr of dechlorinated tap water with 6ml of cal-mag, 3ml of Ecothrive Flourish, 6ml of Xpert Nutrients Bloom Booster. I have also added cinnamon top dress after watering, as I have noticed some fungus gnats. I checked the trichomes through one of my loupes yesterday too, and nearly all are still glass like in appearance, with some cloudy here and there. I'm definitely going to have some time left on these girls. I did check the PH if my soil on all plants as I was concerned about nutrient lock out on FBP3. All pots tested out at 7.0 Ph exactly, before and after watering. Thanks for reading my diary 😊

So next time I would use the Lucas formula and cut out the GH geo from the trio as the micro and bloom have enough nitrogen anyway as I experienced nitrogen toxicity in veg. Considering this is my first grow I am happy with the yield and quality of the finished product. Next time I will be using bigger pots than 3 gal ( 4-5 gal ) and will put the lights down a little closer to the plants for a bigger yield. Thanks to fast buds for this great strain would definitely grow it again. Till next time !

Hoping by the end of this week to see a decent bit of vegative growth. I also had a boost in growth after sprouting but has slowed down decently. Plants leaves started drooping down and one edge of leaf turned a lighter green, leaves also look wrinkled, but don’t feel dry. I was advised it was nothing to be concerned of but I want other opinions. Also started a little LST today 2/15/24

nada que resaltar. Una más entre el montón. igual 70gr. en seco no más como comenté antes, las auto no siempre gustan pasados unos meses curando y cansado de tenerlo por ahí me decidí por hacer hash con hielo. 9,1gr de 100 gr. áprox de cogollitos
