This lil lady is officially flowering. Half way through the week she started growing pistils all over. Switched the lights to 12:12 half way through the week. She recovered from the LST of tying down her top. Room has averaged 85° F / 40% RH with a high of 89° F Ordered larger oscilating fan hoping to get the heat down a bit. Been dealing with fungus gnats in some other plants in the house so I sprinkled ceylon cinnamon on top of the soil, to act as an organic fungicide, and sprayed her down with neem oil as a pest prevention. 💧 Watered: Tuesday May 5, 2020 with 4:1 Water to Hydrogen Peroxide. Installed 6in oscilating fan blowing at the light. Heat is still too high. ~85° average Raised light to 18in above canopy. Shes responding well to the LST and several nodes below the top have now started showing noticible growth.

Aug 8: Gorilla Cookies Fast is doing great. She has the best overall shape of this year’s plants and it is the fastest flowering plant of the four. Had the AC Infinity UV lights out for the first time today. The strength of UV light drops quickly here in mid-August but these lights make up for it. The UV lights could be used just near solar noon (about 1:30 here now) but they’re LED which means low power demand so I just leave them on during the day. These are indoor lights so only on non-rain days outside. Aug 9: sunny day and have UV lights going too. Aug 10: no UV lights today. Used Green Sensation from Plagron for first time this afternoon. More defoliation to improve airflow and to get the plant to focus on the big buds.

* Increased PPM TO 1050 * I’m getting more fruity, citrus smell now. It’s not overpowering just really light. When it rubs on my hands and clothes the residue is more potent. * The 2 late flowering plants don’t seem to be progressing look the same to me. Maybe they are more on the photo period pheno with sativa dominance.

Well, another week has passed and it has been growing not exactly as I expected, but they warned me about using only base fertilizers with an inert soil and a higher ambient temperature, I could have a not so good result, well, it's one more experience and I liked it and let's see how it will be until the end of the cycle because the next one I already ordered a starter kit from the advanced nutrients line! Let's Go!

Grow has been going well! Tryna grow those roots and spread out the canopy. Have been doing a lot of hard LST, even to the point where I’ve accidentally topped a few. Soil grows are looking great. Very low maintenance.

9/3 Day 50 of the grow I cannot complain at all,reduced the nuet list to what they are getting from here out 9/5 Everybody always takes pics of their plants at their best thought it might help to see otherwise, well here they are at their worst. Dried out intentionally as part of last stage of flower, like to get them conditioned for drying. Five minutes later all happy again after the water. Fed Bio-Grow/Bio-Bloom/Karo syrup as a boost to bio 9/7 Re-adding Big Bloom (Fox Farms) to nuet mix, plants seem to be missing it and I agree. Once a week at 3 tps/gal 9/8 Fed each .75 gal full nuets Moved Becky and Ceila towards edges to lower light to them. Seem very sensitive to it but the other two are just soaking it up so moving them into the center. Pics later at lights out. Greatly preferring the dark leaf pheno (Anna and Deb) over the light leaf (Becky and Ceila), Have two of each and the first grow was also dark leaf. Plants are more compact, drink a little less, easier to maintain, and I think will end up producing at least as much as the larger sativa leaning plants. Some defoliation on all Changing nuet list add Fox Farm Happy Frog Cavern Culture 1-12-0 for the P think thats the nuet hole, three tablespoons top dressed one time application... for now. See how it goes

Week 6 she’s looking great! Put on a lot of weight in the last week, buds are looking nice and fat. Main colas are big and the bottoms look like nice golf ball sized nugs. Not a veteran so I don’t know for sure but the node spacing is looking pretty good to me. Got a very nice gassy vanilla smell going on and i get hit with it when i open the tent 🤩 Still on Athena bloom for a couple waterings then switching to fade. Next big purchase is a fancy camera lol Drop a follow!

So at the start of week 3 I began to LST CM#3 to just experiment basically and topped CM#2 I believe. Again, just to experiment. This is my first grow and I was stunned with the reactions to both! The new growth after topping was about 1/4” in about 12hrs.. Crazy to me and the lst is proving to expose these bud sites and encourage amazing growth QUICK!! I’ll continue to train daily. One of the videos show the topped CM just yesterday. In 4 days, it’s grown soo much! Also, a video mentions the gender reveal but since then, all 4 have officially revealed themselves as female at the 22 day mark.

Hello, readers! Some of her branches, that are tall and thick started to falling to the side. Kind of because of the bud weight, idk. I have tied them a bit. I have one string, that supports branches and support another string for the lowest-fallest branches Because of that it would be harder to change the solution, because she might start spreading her branches sideways and brake it. So, i still haven't changed it. Solution's smell is fine I cut a couple of leaves because of branches relocated and they are closer to each other now. And a couple of lowers buds. I think about positioning her lower, so middle buds would get light, may be I will try an experiment on the next week. Feeding that's not from TA is in gr/l

Training was done at the beginning of the week; besides trying to control the height, we will observe the development of the branches and flowers. 💪

The lemon pie has sum stuff going on not sure if I under-watered her a little bit I did wait 4 days to water that one but I thought the soil was still good until I picked it up and it was light as a feather so I gave a cup of Ayer maybe a littler more and had I slight VPD problem I think it was 84 with like 50% humidity I added a second fan today it bounced up to 65% at 82 degrees! Please help am I over thinking or is this something bigger

a little as it's cold here and the room the tent is in gets down to 15-16c at night. The air is also dry af This is great, cannabis loves low humidity and a good 10 degree difference in day/night temps in flowering. Swelling up nice. Doesn't really smell unless handled.

Starting Week 16 tonight and she managed to stretch another 5 cm over the last week.. The stretch is real, and the bud sites are coming along nicely. With a clean clean Reservoir, im looking forward to the week ahead as i expect to see some buds sites to start to fill out..

This week some of the plants are starting to show a few brown pistils on the calyxes as an indicator that peak bloom period is occurring. I don’t expect them to do much other than fill out a bit at this point with exception of some of the more Sativa phenotypes like the Tangerine Dream. One of the these seedplants failed to bloom properly it may lack the autoflowering genes. I don't want to risk damaging the roots in the system by culling it. I might leave it in to see what happens and transplant it before I clean out the system for the fall grow. I’m pretty satisfied with the autoflower grow so far but I do have some room for improvement: 1) Next grow I will use CNS17 Ripe possibly from start to finish to see if that improves the flowering of the plants. I feel that my feed is high in nitrates so I am starting to flush this week. 2) You can see by the plants all showed variation in physical appearance and Trichrome production. The only plant that has gone purple out of the batch and is a high yielding Gorilla Zittles from Barneys. If I grow autoflowers again in this system I want to choose plants that are a little more uniform. I think the Botanicare Turbo Garden and similar systems are best suited for clones as they grow a little more uniform. Autoflowers even from the same strain have a wide variation which is cool because every seed is a surprise. 3) I need an overhead plant support. I am not sure how the plants survived some pretty high winds. One stem broke and I repaired it enough so that the plant actually survived. 4) I'm working on a microcontroller sensor node to allow some automation to the system. My favorite plants in this batch are the Dinafem Amnesia Auto CBD based only on aesthetics at this point. The Blue Dream Auto from Humbolt is one of the smaller plants but it has quite a bit of resin on it. The smaller plants may have been stunted as my nute level from the beginning was approaching upper limits for leaf burn (1.7-1.8 EC). I had since backed down but over-fertilization in early stages is not reversible and comes at a cost of plant health and vigor. I took a video to try and show the overall garden progress. I did not defoliate this grow which makes it hard to see the individual flower structure but I will have defoliated harvest photos coming up soon!

Week 16 I added new tie-down and tried to fill the tent as much as possible. The Aroma is amazing coming from the tent with super sweet berry tones. Trichomes are all still clear and no stunt in growth has been detected. I've gone back to a 90 degree rotation daily and a hybrid watering schedule with 1L from top and 1L subirrigated alternating days to keep nutrients in play hoping to prolong flushing the plant over the next 2-3 weeks instead of over a single week. Pests have not re-emerged since the spray but nonetheless less ill be spraying again partway through the week. The buds are mainly all golf ball sized now with the colas starting to fill out nicely. I cannot wait to try these mouth watering buds. Day 6 As the week progressed we saw a filling of the branches, the internodal spacing was almost perfect for this plant which is nice considering all things. As seen on the video, the trichomes are mainly clear on a lot of the outer buds but the more centralized buds are appearing cloudy. Regardless going for a 85/15 cloudy/amber trichome ratio. So 3-4 weeks more possibly, observation will be crucial.

Hola familia, confieso, está genética es de mis favoritas, y no solo por lo fácil que es su cultivo. Esta variedad con predominancia indica, se está comportando muy bien en nuestro interior. Controlando el ph y alimentándolas bien, no tienen por qué suponer ninguna complicación en su ciclo. En floración procuramos que jamas suba la humedad por encima del 50% ni que la temperatura sea muy elevada, podemos falicitar la formacion de hongos... y no queremos eso. Resumiendo, bastante contento con la evolución de las Lemon kush. Hasta la próxima semana familia.
