7/21/17: They got their watering today. They drank as much as usual. It was MUCH easier feeding out of an 10 gallon container with a spigot. I kinda wish i got the 20 gallon one as that would mean only one mix, but the 10 is fine. I left everything sit after PHing to stabilize, and the runoff looked normal. Pix posted of potential calcium def on speed bud #2 and the kush. The kush looks somewhat different, but maybe I just caught it earlier. Used full Strength CalMagic with 1/2 nutes. I also PHed slightly higher in the 5.9 range to make sure the calcium was available. I didn't expect potential lockout at 5.7-5.8, but looking at the chart Calcium needs slightly higher PH so I hope this takes care of it. I tightened down the original LST in case watering the coco dislodged it, very little. I may start some leaf LST soon to provide the lower canopy more light. We shall see how they look at lights on and decide. Not sure how much further LST to do, because I believe we have our first sexing, as I noticed 2 fine hairs (i think) on NLxBB. Pic posted. Next feeding, any ladies showing their privates will get late stage veg feeding. I may even switch the runts to that feeding even if they haven't shown sex yet. I may even do full strength, as if anything, these plants are showing deficiencies with not even a trace of burn, and if I am going to get any volume out of the yield, I need to start pushing because they aren't that big right now. I have been told LST is not so good when the plants start to flower. I have also been told that autos will continue veg growth for about 2 weeks after sex before they actually start putting energy into flower, so if that is the case LST would still be appropriate during this late veg? Anyone with any experience on this matter? The smell is getting much stronger. During feeding this morning, i left all the tent doors open and went to preparing and other things. When I reentered the room, the smell was QUITE noticeable outside of the tent. I also got my new EC meter. it expresses EC in terms of like, 500, 1500, 2000, etc. It looks like PPM but it is not, it is a very detailed EC reading. So, in the previous example, it should be read as 0.5. 1.5.. and 2.0 EC. I had a TDS pen, but I got it free, unexpectedly, when I switched to a Pur water filter. I figured it as a novelty and they were just bragging. It ended up working reasonably well when I tested faucet vs distilled and nutes, so I have been using it, but since it was an unspecified PPM scale, it seemed wiser to be more accurate with no confusion EC. For the record, the TDS pen from Pur pretty much matched EXACTLY with my new fancy EC meter, which means the Pur water filter works as well as advertised and it took my 150-200 tap water to 0 every time. I certainly have been happy with it for my drinking water. 7/22/17 I am starting to think about more frequent feedings because man do they look perky today, after yesterday's feeding. I really want the advantage of massive root structure that wet/dry cycling provides, but these plants respond well to food. I continue to ponder. 7/23/17 : the good news, we are REALLY growing. I think I have the VPD managed. not under control, but managed. its going to cost me a fortune in AC bill, but I think I got it figured out 18 out of 24 hours of the day. the other 6 are completely out of my control and it is what it is. the bad news... the damage on the kush never did quite look like cal def (speed bud #2 DID look like cal def). i think i saw an aphid. aphid damage looks like what I saw. i crushed it instantly, then regretted crushing it before positively IDing it. either way, a trip to to the hardware store for a pressure sprayer cuz tonight before lights out, its a foliar spray of neem oil and sm-90, followed by a dusting of diatomaceous earth. gott a handle this before budding, and we already have at least 1 lady for sure showing her privates (NLxBB). So, far my 1st impressions for my 1st grow ever can be summed up by the phrase "I didn't know I would need to know how to juggle to get this job!" I'm actually having fun, but I am starting to get get cash fatigue throwing money at each new problem. Granted, I had the neem oil, diatomaceous earth, the DE duster, and the SM-90 already in reserve, but I had to go out AGAIN and grab a pressure sprayer and distilled water. it's not like its expensive, but it adds up. I know the payoff is coming. every time I open that tent and smell it, i can tell the payoff is coming. so much to learn, so many little obstacles to overcome. i am glad i enjoy it. i would hate to do this if i didnt actually enjoy it, like if it was a job. it fits neatly into a challange/recreation area, as far as growing. It's not too easy nor too hard. but it IS demanding. at what i make an hour, it is likely cheaper to buy it. but i truly am enjoying this. you can't buy that. this plant is teaching me a ton already. patience, being the major one i really am enjoying it. i wish i was better at it, but that will come with time... speaking of time, the time lapse is SICK the last 3 days. you are going to have to wait until the end of the week, but trust me, it is fascinating. i wish i could do that part better, more professional, but my focus is on the plant. the time lapse is just bonus and remember, it is VERY cheap to do time lapse. if you want to do it yourself, it will cost you $50 or so for the basics. you gotta do some computer work, but its not hard. i can help. it may be minor, but its something i can contribute. i am enthralled with the footage. i am SO glad i did that. plus i can monitor temps and humidity real time anywhere from my phone with proper port forwarding. since there has been 0% burn, i am VERY tempted to do a full early veg feeding (700pm) before i transition to 1/2 late veg feeding until flower. gonna sit on this, but i likely will push them just to see if they can be pushed, and if so, which strains... again, enjoyment =D a little more LST, main stem hopefully it will help with the bud cuz its gonna fuck with the time lapse 7/24/17 About a half hour before lights out I sprayed them with 1 part sm-90, 5 parts water, and 1 ml per gallon of need oil. This morning Speed Bub #1 had a brown mark on it. I am hoping these marks aren't pests at all, but light burns from draps of water. Only time will tell. I will spray them again tonight or tomorrow, but this time 10 minutes or so before lights out just in case. I have not dusted with diatomaceous earth yet, as I am not convinced I have an infestation yet. Does the brown spot in the new pics look like anything specific to anyone else? 7/26/17 Not much to report. They are growing steady. Still, most not sexed. I am starting to think the stall at the beginning wasn't stunting, but a root network taking hold. I am also starting to think this time limit of autoflowers lacks the urgency that some people speculate. For instance, the speed buds should have started flowering in the 3rd week. We are almost done with week 4 and they aren't even sexed yet, but growing fine, if not slightly small for this age. I suspect autoflowers DO have an internal timer, but that timer may not be as strict as some think; the timer may take into account environment and adjust itself. I don't know, but I haven't seen anyone using 7 gallon pots for autos, so this early stall and late sexing may be unique to this situation, and may support my theory that the week they apparently did not growing on the time lapse, that there were roots going nuts. That would spell out environmental factors, no? I was going to feed them today, but the bags are still so heavy and the tops arent even all dry yet, so I am going to wait a day and go into late veg feeding at lights up tomorrow. Not sure, but I think it's time, wet/dry cycle or not. I will of course, monitor them but they look beautiful. One mistake I made for sure that I won't make again is not fiilling the pots to the top. Not only did I create unnecessary shadows, but the leaves are now pushing and folding on the sides and I have to manually make sure they are straight and getting sufficient light. Practice makes perfect, I will do better next time. A few of the plants are getting some more spots. In my opinion, it is either damage from the neem treatment, or def because they are hungry. Still no evidence of bugs. I was looking for the plants to tell me they were hungry because they look so healthy and the bag is heavy, so I will take this as their message for sure and feed them at lights up tomorrow. Either way, the plants still look great and are growing like weeds. I did wait long to feed them, so this is expected. Later in the day tomorrow, when they perk after watering, we will do their portraits for the week and get this weeks time lapse uploaded. Yeah, I am pretty sure it's calcium. It's a bit worse than I thought, so will for sure get on lights on feeding. I either need to increase calcium in the feed, or feed them more often. I guess it's time to move to more aggressive feeding, at least that is what they seem to be telling me. Normal 1/2 strength feed given more often. 7/27/17 They were fed today, late veg nutes. Will provide details in week 5. I was going to take photos today, but spent almost 8 hours in the ER to be told that I was as healthy as a teeny bopper. That compliment is going to hurt a whole lot when that bill comes in. Of note, I have raised the LEDs 2 nights in a row and the smell is getting much thicker. Anyway, I am exhausted, and have to work tomorrow, so I will take their portraits a little late tomorrow and get the time lapse up before opening week 5.

Day 50

📖 Chroniques de l'Oasis : La Marque Blanche du Sahara ​👑 Chapitre 4 : L'incroyable déploiement de la sultane ​Date : 19 Mars 2026 Âge de la Sultane : Jour 28 (Fin de la 4ème semaine de croissance) Taille : 27 cm ​Je continue ma marche. Le sable glisse sous mes pieds de nomade, mais mon regard ne quitte plus cet horizon où la tache blanche semble m'appeler. Dans mon oasis, le temps s'accélère. La petite pousse que j'observais hier est devenue une Sultane impériale, prête à régner sur son royaume, son oasis. 🏹 Le Domptage de la Reine : Mon LST ​Mes mains de jardinier-nomade ont travaillé avec patience. Grâce au LST (Low Stress Training), j'ai courbé la structure pour forcer le destin. Le résultat dépasse mes espérances : 10 branches secondaires vigoureuses ont jailli du tronc. Chacune d'elles se dédouble déjà, me promettant une canopée de 30 têtes. je lui ai débarrasser deux feuilles de sa robe qui frôlait le sol pour éviter tout problème de brulure ou de champignons pour que sa croissance rzste vertigineuse. ​Je vois déjà le tableau final se dessiner : une armée de fleurs régulières, une géométrie sacrée qui portera bientôt ce givre légendaire . C'est une croissance incroyable, une explosion de vie que je guide jour après jour. 🏜️ État de l'Oasis ​Le climat est celui des journées parfaites au pied du Rif, là où l'air est pur et la lumière généreuse. ​Climat : 24°C - 25°C le jour / 20°C - 21°C la nuit. ​Humidité : 55% (L'air s'assoit légèrement, parfait pour durcir la fibre). ​Énergie : Intensité montée à 75% (La Lumatek tape fort, comme le soleil de midi). ​Distance : Réglée à 87 cm de l'apex pour que chaque branche secondaire reçoive sa partie de lumière. Nutriments Apportés (L'Élixir de vie) ​Aujourd'hui, j'ai préparé l'élixir qui soutient cette croissance massive : ​Hydratation : 0,5 Litre d'eau (Ajustée avec précision à un pH de 6,3). ​Offrande : 5 ml d'Orgatrex. ​Mon observation : En versant ce mélange, je sens que je nourris la terre et l'âme de la plante. Elle boit ce nectar organique pour transformer la lumière en branches solides. 📜 L'Anecdote du Rif : Le Secret des "Multiples Têtes" ​Au Maroc, les anciens du Rif disent souvent que pour obtenir une résine "mielée" comme la Beldia, il faut que la plante "regarde le ciel par tous ses membres". À l'époque, ils ne connaissaient pas le LST moderne, mais ils inclinaient parfois les plantes avec des pierres pour que les branches latérales s'élèvent comme des minarets. Aujourd'hui, mes 30 branches de têtes sont mes 30 promesses de richesse. Chaque nœud de la Sultane est une étape de plus sur ma route de nomade vers la Marque Blanche. ​Note du cultivateur : "28 jours de voyage... La Sultane prépare son armure. Le chemin est long, mais le joyau est à portée de main." à bientôt pour le suite de la chronique. merci a tous pour vos commentaires.

Bueno chicos entramos ya en la semana 3 no entiendo porque no crecen mucho en altura , que os parece ?en e día 18 a stardawg le he hecho lst y en el dia 20 a la gorilla 🙈

Este video es del día 42 de vida de la Blue Mazar Auto. Regué 3/4 de bokashi de flora y 1/4 de bokashi de vege de Vamp. También usé 25 ML de Vampimelaza y Micorrizas de Namasté. Viene muy bien, compacta y frondosa. Ya de a poco empieza tímidamente a mostrar los primeros tricomas.

been AFK for while, been focusing on work and my new main tent run. here’s the update 2 on the left and the one back right are my strains, the AF x Turk. back right is the one in the video, stacked main cola. smells range from a earthy spice to a foul rotting fruit smell. the rotting fruit sting the nostrils it’s so powerful. the one in the front left is a Terp Town Ticket from a controversial UK breeder named blue skies vienna. he claims to have real deal skunk genetics from OldTimer1, a legend in the UK weed scene. he apparently played a part in getting the skunk to the dutch, and these are “pre dutch” skunks. mine smells like a cherry coke with a real musky/funky/ “skunk” smell, but not full on skunk spray. she’s about 2-3 weeks behind my ladies. will probably post when everything is done and dried.

I will be vegging these for another week or two as mentioned last week. Not quite satisfied yet.

Sie fängt an schön zu wachsen erstmal nur zuschauen und alle 3tage 1Liter gießen.

❤️🍁🏻

Very rough week. I noticed discoloration of fan leaves which led to a lot of different deficiencies. Thought I was going to lose my plants.

Check this videos all are same technics

4/18 66 Days Just some progress pictures, no major changes here beyond dialing in the Blumat Maxi carrots. 4/16 64 Days Actual week, 9! If you're wondering where all my other not actually week 9 shit went, I moved it back to week 8. Who am I kidding, no one gives a shit! Everyone now has a Blumat Maxi watering carrot. Now that they are just fattening up I can scale back on them and start focusing a bit more on Phimo, who's just reached ScrOG! Two feedings of their weekly tea, Sunday and Tuesday.

Day 98 The plants are deep into flowering now and really starting to fill out nicely. The buds have become dense and covered in a thick layer of trichomes, giving off a strong, sweet aroma that’s getting more intense each day. The pistils are starting to turn from white to a light amber tone, a good sign that the plant is moving toward maturity. Overall health looks great — leaves are a rich green, with only a few showing minor fade on the lower canopy, which is normal at this stage. I’ve been keeping a close eye on humidity and temperature to avoid any mold issues as the buds continue to fatten up. Feeding schedule remains steady with a focus on bloom nutrients and a bit of molasses to enhance flavor and resin production. Watering every 2–3 days, making sure not to overdo it.

Hey everyone :-). There is not much to tell this week :) A few came to the flowering tent, 2 are still in the vegi phase for 2 days and then come last to the flowering tent :-) The Blue Cheese and the Kosher Tangie Kush smell very good and how they should 😍👍 It will be difficult to choose 2 mums :-). I wish everyone a nice week 👌 Let it grow

drying under 62% rh and 21°C over 10 days. really good strain. Hast gelato with a little bit of gas and sweetness.

Transplanted into medium size pots :) they seem to have taken transplant just fine. The smell is also really nice given their small size.

Hello. This is the end of week 8 and the beginning of week 9 of flowering. Although the seed description said 10 to 11 weeks, I going to cut these girls down at 10 weeks. I need the room to grow and flower some Mac and Crack that's already growing.. Getting close to harvest I'll start flushing, But I'll give them 1 more feeding and then nothing but water till the end. I get much better taste and the buds smoke better if I flush and get the chemicals out of the soil before harvest. Well, that's the end of the Freak Bros. book # 10... I think there are 3 or 4 more books left in that series. I'll show them in future diaries. My other diaries have the old underground comic book, Weirdo by Robert Crumb if you want to check them out to see. The buds are really getting solid now and some are getting heavy and heading for the floor. Good times... Getting some great smells now. Musk is the most common. But some, smell of Citrus with Musk under tones. The smell is overpowering my carbon filter. I can smell these plants out by the street if the wind is blowing that way. Pure Lemon Skunk smell by the street. Nice. Getting near the end of their lives now and there are more yellow leaves as the plants pull what they need from the big fan leaves before turning the leaves brown. Some plants have sticky resin and some have slippery resin. OK. Have Fun. Chuck.
