Black Opium auto is struggling. I think it is getting too warm for her. I am trying to lower the temperature. Hopefully it is resolved soon. Thank you Spider Farmer, Athena, and Divine Seeds. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g.

Happy palindromic 4202024. To help celebrate I’m starting a couple of Euphoria seeds and making the first diary entry of the season. This year i’m doing two photoperiod plants, starting today, and two autos that I’ll start in mid-May. Apr 22: moved into soil after about 48 h in 25 C water in the dark. Have a ripe apple beside the seeds under the foil because apparently the ethylene gas that is given off helps. Science paper I happened across last winter - will post reference when I remember. Apr 25: removed foil (and apple) and left on a 25 C heat mat beside a light that is going for tomatoes and peppers. Weak light, warmth, and high humidity is what they need at this stage.

White Widow survived! She started growing all the leaves at the same time. There is some fractal shit going on with the leaves, which is very visually appealling for me. I discovered that I like taking care of the plants, make me calm, and is a new nice and healthy hobby. The plants are listening to classical music and "582hz music" 18 hours a day! :)

Well! I'm hella nervous about using ripen! but wth! science baby!!! The buds are pretty great, the trichomes aren't ready yet but there are 1 or two ambers. Very curious to see what this ripen does to things! If anything! ______________________________________________________________________________ Week is almost over! The ripen has been helpful, I don't think the buds have swelled DRAMATICALLY more, but the fade is Very nice! The buds are pretty much ready, I think in 2 or 3 more days it will be just about time. I would possibly let the lower buds develop longer but I have got to get my Veg babies moved over ASAP! Right now I think the tent is just taking a victory lap an there isn't much to do but put the baby to bed!!!!!! YAY!!!! _______________________________________________________________________________ I'm pretty damn pleased with things! I'm gonna chop em! If i had more time I'd let em go a bit longer, but they are ready enough to send out the door!!! I'm glad i added the Ripen! I think it did a decent job and it gave me a cheap week of waterings! The final runoff PH was 6.6 so i'm glad to see it never spiked crazy high! Gonna let them soak a bit more and in 2 days take em down! Its gonna be a project!!!!

Plant responded well to increased nutrients.. I digress it's still too hot but im going off the plants reaction. Pistil size has doubled with them sustaining double the thickness with all new growth. Ill keep going. Harvest time is still a few weeks away. I should probably mention that I've suspected for a while now my seeds got mixed up at germination and im actually growing a White Widow Auto and not a Purple Kush Auto. Whoops 🤦‍♂️ If you look at week 3 and compare it to other CKS WW Autos its a very distinct pheno that leans heavy on the sativa side early in veg before its indica dominance takes over.

These 2 have really made a terrific canopy. Just rows of colas that are stacking right up. Buds are getting much more structre and character to them. Trichome and resin production is really kicking in. Earthy skunky aroma kicking from em so far. The tops are getting nice and solid... gunna have some great density here. I reduced the nitrogen dose again. I also stopped giving them vigorous. Its a pure bloom mix now as these ladies are booming with flowers. Until next update. Happy growing and stay lit fam.

🇬🇧 Well… it’s starting to get a little out of hand. 😂 I’m defoliating something every single day because the leaves keep trapping moisture against each other. My little grow tent is absolutely packed now. 😌🌿 The girls are getting seriously hungry and they’re happily drinking 12 liters a day in total—that’s about 4 liters per plant. 💧 I’m going on vacation next week, so they’ll probably have to go on a little diet. I’m really curious to see how they’ll handle it. 😅 What do you guys think? Let me know in the comments! 👇 Happy growing! 🌱💚 ——————— 🇨🇿 No, už mi to začíná přerůstat přes hlavu. 😂 Každý den musím něco odlistit, protože se listy navzájem zapařují. V mém mini growboxu už je teď pořádná tlačenka. 😌🌿 Holky jsou neskutečně hladové a úplně bez problémů vypijí 12 litrů denně, takže zhruba 4 litry na každou rostlinu. 💧 Za týden mě čeká dovolená, takže si nejspíš dají menší půst. Jsem fakt zvědavý, jak se na nich podepíše. 😅 Co si o tom myslíte vy? Napište mi do komentářů. 👇 Ať se daří! 🌱💚

Hello This is the end of week 4 and the beginning of week 5 of veg. Things are going good. They have gotten over their transplanting shock and topping shock are growing upwards now. Got a small one and a tall one and one in-between. Another couple of week and I'll repot them again into their final pots and put in a tomato cage to spread the branches out. The spiders are getting big in the fall around here. You can hear the web snap and pop when you walk into one. Found a winter project. Got for free a 240 bottle wine insulated wine cabinet with a double pane glass window. I'll put 3 thermoelectric motors in for cooling and a small dehumidifier for the moisture. There's a video on you tube I'll follow. I was in the grow store looking for the frequency altered water that I use on the powdery mildew. They were lout of it. So the clerk told me about this. He said it's a safe cure all for pests and mold and fungus. Check out the web site. The Safer Soap Insecticide Co owner sold his Co. and did research with some of the money and started a new Co. I like that's essential oils being used. OK. Be Great. Chuck.

📆 Semana 6 Golosa sigue avanzando en floración, con las flores ganando volumen y la resina cada vez más visible. Esta semana, las hojas grandes empiezan a amarillear, coincidiendo con los cambios observados tras la exposición al CO₂. Ajusto la nutrición y subo la EC a 1.4, mientras reduzco la exposición al UVB para priorizar la conservación del perfil terpénico. Continúo vigilando la evolución de la planta y las condiciones ambientales, especialmente ahora que el frío sigue presente ⚡ EC: 1.4 💧 pH: 6.2–6.3 🌡️ Agua: 21°C 🌫️ Humedad: 60–65% 💡 Intensidad: 400–500 PPFD 🔥 Consejo de cultivo: Ante el amarilleamiento, conviene observar cómo evoluciona el follaje y comprobar el equilibrio nutricional antes de seguir ajustando la alimentación. ¡Seguimos creciendo fuerte! 💪

All pics are from the 1st day of each week I upped the nutes considerably this week saw some weird spots forming on several of the plants just figured it was nute lock so i drained a gallon of water from the affected plant and replaced with basic ro ph balanced water to dilute was this the rt thing to do? Will be doing only 50% nutes from here on

1/20/2023- So much to do pre grow and over the next 16 days, absolute first order of business is that I have to take down my current Grow---TIMBER-- Then I have a list of things I have to get done in order to be ready to start this grow 1 Feb. With that said T - 2 days until start 48 hour Flush T - 2 days until Start 48 hours of Light T - 4 days until TIMBER!!! Items that need to be done before 1 Feb 2023 1. I need to clean the tent out 2. I need to clean the equipment- Proper Sanitization between grows in Hydro is a must!!! 3. I need to get the hole in the ceiling above my tent repaired- For my last grow I had a deep sink installed in my grow room, to make Hydroponics a little bit easier and have a water source in the same room. The seals on the pipes they were installing broke and leaked through the ceiling causing some damage all the way across my grow room, I was already weeks into my grow and couldn't risk them working above my tent and it would have been very awkward positon for them to be working in as well, so have to get this done quickly between chop and germination. 4. I have to install my new light- I was using a Vivosun 4000 and for this grow I am switching up to a Spider-farmer SF 7000. 1/20/23- For this upcoming grow I am working with M/F photo seeds so I ordered 4 Sex determination kits. I recieved my my 4 Sex determination testing kits from Rimrock Analytics today. I will be using these to test my plants at week 2 of Veg so that when/if I take clones I know I am taking them off females. As well as I don't want to accidently pollinate my tent during this grow I am looking for big beautiful buds not seeded buds. :-) 1/24/2023- Harvest of current grow- Started at 2:00pm and finshed wet trim and firt batch into the freeze dryer. 1/25/2023- Next batch into the freeze dryer and cleaning all my equipment for this Grow. T-1 Day until the workers are supposed to be here to fix the hole in the Grow Room. T-3 days until I instll my new Gorilla Grow Tent and my New Light Spider Farmer SE-7000 for this grow. T-7 Days until Start of Germination 1/26/2023- Harvest is done ran through the Freeze dryer and dry tim completed. 1/27/2023- Grow Room repairs completed. Hole is gone Letting the paint dry before I install the new tent. T-2 days until Install the New Gorilla Grow tent and the new Light T-3 days until I put the hydro equipment in the new tent T-5 days until Germination 1/29/2023- Day 0- Final Pre Germination activities Germination Start T-3 days The paint on the ceiling was dry and it was time to finish prepping for Germination. I got the following items knocked off my list. New 4X4 Gorilla Grow Tent is up and ready New Spider Farmer SE-7000 Light is installed- Thanks Moony Grows for the suggestion and for the Code that got me some money off and free shipping (Moonygrows)!! I turned the lights all the way up to max and set the timer to 18/6 0600-0000. I will keep an eye on the temperature and humidity without my plants and see how hot it gets with the new light. I put my Hydro system back together and put in 40 gallons of water into it, time to monitor for leaks the next few days. I Setup my cloning machine for Germination Days 3-11 1/30/2023 let me break down the situation, ROOM in the TENT.. Enough said.. No really I tried putting my exhaust system up in the new tent with my new light, The light is so big corner to corner that it really didn't give me enough room for the lights be be raised, with the exahust hanging the buckets my plants are Starting in are 2 and 1/2 feet off the ground, great for plenty of room for roots but not so great for upwards space for the plant to grow. In a 6' 11 tent with the exauhst in side and hanging that only gave me a little over 4 feet of grow room to play with. My last grow if you saw my diary, anyone could tell I was struggling to keep the buds off the lights. No good, Since space was such an issue I was running my carbon filter inside on the ground but It really needed to be up sucking the heat out not shooting the cool out. With that setup I was sucking air through the filter and pushing it out the tent at a bottom exhaust hole cold out. Wasn't doing me any good for my heat. I was hitting temps of up to 85 degrees. I bought a portable AC unit and have been running it in the grow room to try and keep temps below 85 and I have had to lower the power on my lights during grow also not ideal.. With that said a friend of mine MoonyGrows (Check out his diary) took the time to look at my issue send me a picture of my grow tent setup with detailed instructions on how to suck the air out from the top but putting my filter and fan on top of my tent so no room issue and I am sucking the air out from the top where the heat is instead of pushing the air out from the bottom where the cool is... THANK YOU MoonyGrows For taking the time to help me get this straightened out.. Now I have room and I have the exhausts working right and now my temps with everything at 100% are topping out at 80 this dropped the temp by 5 + degrees at 100% max. T-2 days until Start of Germination Prepped my seed tray with humidity dome Prepped my Rapid Rooter plugs. I Used RO water, and I added a few drops of Hydrogen peroxide to Oxygenate the water. I then PH balanced between 5.7-6.0 the same that they will be getting in the Cloning Machine and when they get to thier final grow pod. I perfere the 5.8x range and I hit 5.84 for these rapid rooters. If you want to see a complete video on the process HowWeedGrow has an amzing video that shows step by step how to do it and explains it better than I ever could including how to plant the seeds. Which I will cover when I get to that step on Wed. https://www.howweedgrow.com/how-germinate-weed-seeds-cannabis-rapid-rooters/ 1/31/2023 T-1 day until Germination Start All set and ready have my Rapid Rooter plugs ready to go have my seeds out.. Have my seed tray warming up tonight. Tomorrow morning right into the Rapid Rooter then strait into the tray. I will spray the dome to start the humidity in there. 2/1/2023 Germination Day!! Let the games begin! 0600am Put the seeds into the Root Riots. And then put the seeded Root Riots into their first home the Seed tray. I have them under the light 24/7. Sprayed the dome 7:30pm Sprayed the Dome to keep humidity going on the dome. 2/2/2023 Day 1 of Germination Sprayed the Dome in the morning Sprayed the Dome in the evening 2/3/2023 Day 2 of Germination Roots are starting to come out the bottom of the root riot plugs and the heads are slowly popping out of Number 4 just below the surface. Afternoon- Number 4 has popped up Evening- Number 3 has popped up as well. Happy Dance!! 2/4/2023 Day 3 - Germination Surprise Surprise Surprise- all 4 have now poked their heads up.. Happy day!! 100% Germination succeeded. Now major milestone to track is how many are female and how many are male. I will take look at the roots this afternoon/evening and see if they have enough root to go into the cloning machine for the next 7 days before they go into their Hydro Pods. Day 3 - Germination - Evening.. Roots looked good and they were tall enough to make it into the cloning machine. Now that they are all in the cloning machine I have switched the lighting to veg state 18 on 6 off. 2/5/2023 Day 4 - Germination - Morning All the Ladies (fingers crossed) looking great stretching nicely and look nice and green, Photo synthesis underway.... UPDATE!! After a very interesting POD cast on FSTS by Dr. Bruce Bugsbee from Utah University, I have shifted my lighting to 24 hours on through seedling and then I am going to shift to 20 hours on the rest of Veg. 2/6/2023 Day 5 - Germination While Checking on my conditions inside the new tent last night, I found that the Humidity was down to 39 Percent. I added an AquaOasis Cool Mist Humidifier, the reason I selected this humidifier is that I needed one that could be turned on and off utilizing my Inkbird Humidity Controller IHC200 that I have my Pro Breeze Dehumidifier currently running with. Root structures are starting to get there about 1/4 of an inch. 2/7/2023 Day 6 - Germination Everything seems on track more roots poking out of each today. They are each getting a little taller as well. Checked in the evening and number 3 was drooping the Root riot plug on the bottome was dry and the roots were not in the water yet. I raised the water just enough that the longest root that was sticking out is now hitting the water. 2/8/2023 Day 7 - Germination Everything looked good while checking in on them this morning number 3 is now full up and no droop again. 2/9/2023 Day 8 - Germination T-2 days until Plant into Forever Pods and we start week 1 of Veg .. :-) Surprising thing to me is that number 1 and 2 were later in popping then 3 and 4 but the roots are growing longer in 1 and 2. 2/10/2023 Day 9 - Germination Number 1 and Number 2 are definitely ready for transplant today.. Based on how they were yesterday and where they are today I am hoping by tomorrow 3 and 4 are ready. Today they look to me where 1 and 2 did yesterday.. I really hope 3 and 4 catch up by tomorrow since.. T-1 day until transplant to new/ final home for grow. Need the roots long enough to have some clay down in the basket to keep the root riot out of the water and only roots in the water.. 2/11/2023 Day 10 - Germination Today they got placed in thier forever Home, 7 days from Sprout and 7 days until Week 1 Start. PPM- 180 this is water out of the Tap Temp Water: 70.7 Temp Tent: 77 Humidity: 40% I have a humidifier going 24/7 to try and bring this up.. I also have Humidity Domes on each plant. 2/12/2023 Day 11 - Germination Sprayed the domes, all are looking good.. Nothing much to do at this phase but Keep monitoring the PH level in the system and making sure they have a comfortable home. T-6 days until Week 1 start 2/13/2023 Day 12 - Germination Sprayed the domes, They were looking a little yellow today so I moved the light down to assist. Nothing much to do at this phase but Keep monitoring the PH level in the system and making sure they have a comfortable home. T-5 days until Week 1 start 2/14/2023 Day 13 - Germination Sprayed the domes, They were looking a little Florissant yellow today, with what looks like slight burn on the tips, I talked with a fellow grower and we agreed that It was probably that I was drowning them, Yes you can drown you plants even in Hydro, but only early on.. :-) It usually happens with the water being too high, which soaks not only the roots but the medium (root Riot plug in this case). I lowered the water from touching the bottom of the pot to about 1" away. This will probably take 3-4 days to resolve. I will continue my daily monitoring. T-4 days until Week 1 start 2/15/2023 Day 14 - Germination Sprayed the domes, continue my daily monitoring they look a little darker green instead of lime green now that I lowered the water levels in the system, so I think that I might have resolved the issue but it will take a few days for recovery to happen. T-3 days until Week 1 start 2/16/2023 Day 15 - Germination I looked in on them this morning, 3 and 4 look like they are doing well and recovering nicely. Number 1 not so much it has brown spots on the leaves, this very well can still be a side effect of the overwatering but I decide to go ahead and add Nutes earlier than I was planning just incase. I was going to wait until Saturday but I think intervention is necessary now especially after drowning them early on. I added 1/2 what I am planning on adding for week 1 start. I also think I am going to adjust my chart to add 1/2 2 days after plant from now on. I don't think it would hurt it to have some Nutes to pull from. .25ml/Gal Calmag = 12.5ml 1ml/gal GH FloraMicro= 50ml 1ml/gal GH FloraGro = 50ml 1ml/gal GH FloraBloom = 50ml T-2 days until Week 1 start = I will drain the system and start it over on Saturday with Week 1 Nutes. 2/17/2023 Day 16- Germination I didn't even want to post today after looking in on them this morning, 3 of the 4 are now showing signs of dronwing.. Brown spots on the leaves, the water levels were still too high.. I drained about another inch out of the tanks.. Will see how quick they recover.. I start week 1 tomorrow and will have to ensure my water levels are at least 1" away from the basket on this round.

This week she has been bulking those nuggets peppered all over, I am hoping she can be healthy enough to swell those Calyxes, because she was stressed few times during her growth and the last one is the change from hps to leds... She had to adapt to those intense leds... Found spider mites on one plants next to her but they are not interested in her, still found few on her and did a careful inspection/eradication but only 4 were found... I think she stink too much for them lol that gassy fuel from the swamp is not on their list! Only water this week she was given. I am trying not to rub those sugar leaves for a sniff too often!🙄😜 It seems the less I touched them the better they are😁, so I use a wooden stick now when I need to move leaves or buds. She is becoming one of my favorite plant, she is fussy yes but very special smell and look, I am so pleased I have made cuttings this time in case and if her high is as good as her smell she will be the first mother plant I will try to keep!

Another week has passed, and both plants are looking fantastic. Both the indoor and outdoor plants are thriving and showing excellent growth. I defoliated and lollipopped the outdoor plant to improve airflow throughout the canopy. The indoor plant is currently on day 21 of flowering and is showing strong bud development along with a noticeable purple coloration. Both plants are already producing a very intense aroma, building high expectations for the weeks ahead.
