Day 10 I started to use the easy plus supplied by RQS, have noticed in the past few days that my intelligent fan doesn’t seem to be turning off in auto on the settings I have pre-installed, I did do a full tent move about on day 11 so I maybe could of done something then? hope this doesn’t turn into a long term issue, however fat banana is starting to grow nicely đŸŒ±đŸ‘ I have a 2x2x5 spider farmer tent with 1 passive inlet vent that is always a 1/4 open My spider farmer intelligent fan is set at 80f and rh @ 60 for veg, I have a 6” fan that was set to go off every 30 minutes for 30 minutes on the hour during daylight hours and once for 30 mins every 90 mins during dark hours, that has changed slowly during the week to a point where yesterday I turned on constant during daylight hours and still at 30 mins every 2 hrs during the night and I am still using the personal mist humidifier that keeps the rh at a nice level anyway during this stage
 My Viparspectra xs1500 was set at 22” at the beginning of the week at 60% this has changed throughout the week and is now set at 19” and around 87% My feeding pattern has been feed/water/dry day
repeat at 250ml Lights on 8am Lights off 2am Water/feed time 8:30am/9:30am *update 29th April: I have stopped using the Biobizz products in this grow, after properly reading up on all RQS products supplied and realising I’ve already mixed the easy boost pellets in the soil I’ve no need to use these products
hopefully this hasn’t affected my grow thus far, I don’t see any deficiencies as yet and don’t seem to be in a bad shape, she’s actually the tallest plant so far I’ve had in this stage đŸ€ž

Hi Growmies, Basically its not going well for the Cbd gal this week, whilst the other seeds have really taken off shes been stuck in her shell all week. It did start cracking but then uas completely stopped over the past few days, so yesterday i removed the shell and shes stuck really tight in the shell membrane 😐 Im going to now wait for her to loosen this once shes gained some energy from the lamp. As with the others shes not gone outside due to the weather and depending on recovery may have to become an indoor project, but we'll see. Thanks for stopping by đŸ˜ŠâœŒïž

Day 42 Crazy it's already week 7, it goes so fast. Rocky has outgrown the other 2 by 7 cm I think. It's hard to measure because her head always shows into one direction, incredible how flexible she is. I have no fear any storm (the 50km/h winds show up daily) could hurt her despite a tornado. Day 43 All the girls are fit, still no leaf lost, bugs etc are down to a minimum. It's a fantastic grow for me and as it looks for them too😁 I want to give a shout out to the breeders, especially Barney's. All the auto varieties I had the pleasure to grow outdoors have performed very good and stable. While it wasn't one totally outstanding, but all on a high level, top consistency. And also Kannabia, I didnt know em, but they have a nice catalogue of genetics that are special, for example some midrange THC strains, which I personally love. More "natural" plants. The Kickass is beautiful with that ol skunky smell 😊 Day 44 Today I accidently poured half of the watering can into Zillas soil, I kind of stumbled and so she got her whole feeding at once 😊 She doesnt show an signs of overwatering. Springbrunnen is infected by mildew on the 5 lowest leaf. I will cut them, it's too much of a risk. All 3 girls get a H2O2 treat and some neem oil. Cut some lower leaves that are either infected or yellow & when they're easily removable. I don't like taking off leaves, it's just painful at least for me. Honestly a lot of that heavy defoliation, topping, you name it, feels like torture to me. I mean yes they can be advantageous in different scenarios but my purpose is to let her grow the way SHE wants to, I just want to assist so she can bring out more of her. Day 45 Only 2h sunlight on average the last 3 days, but we're fit. Did a sunset photo shooting with Rocky, tried to make it real art. Day 46 Bad weather, dark days. Checked for bugs and stuff after the neem oil treat, there's still a few but hey - it's outdoors. They leaves I rubbed with neem oil curled up now, they didn't like it! Day 47 Rocky still working on that storm resistance 😂 Dude she's so tall & thin, several times a day I'm thinking "okay let's move her inside" but they had it hard from the beginning so I keep it that way. Zilla bulked up massively. From my current perspective Rocky needs to speed up to hit that 25.06. new moon harvest day. Increasing fertilizer to 75% because the moon calender said it and I think it's the right timing according to the lifecircle.

📋 Grow Diaries: Week 2 of Flowering – The Northern Lights Auto Sisters The Northern Lights Autoflower sisters, Charlotte and Makayla, have confidently stepped into Week 2 of true flowering. The initial transition phase is settling, and both girls are busy stacking up distinct pre-flower clusters on the deck. Because these are autoflowers tracking on a fixed schedule, this week clearly illustrates how a complete divergence in training strategies can entirely alter the plant's architecture and budding profile. 🎀 A Study in Contrast: Natural vs. Pinned Down While sharing the exact same indica-dominant genetic backbone, the structural contrast between the two sisters is night and day right now: Charlotte (The Natural Tree): Training: Left completely alone to do her own thing, Charlotte has been allowed to grow naturally. Structure & Flowering:** She is exhibiting a textbook, upright Christmas tree shape with a strong apical dominance. Her primary central cola towers over the rest of the plant, heavily stacking clusters of white pistils along a single vertical pillar. Her side branches gracefully skirt the main trunk, catching excellent sun from her upright stance. Makayla (The Pinned-Down Canopy): Training: Placed under intensive low-stress training, Makayla has been meticulously pinned down closer to the soil. Structure & Flowering: By forcing her main stem down horizontally, her natural apical dominance was broken. As a result, her side branches have been thrown into the spotlight, rising up to create a much flatter, bushed-out tabletop canopy. She sits significantly lower to the pot than her sister but features multiple evenly distributed budding tops across her wider footprint. The Mid-Bloom Menu: Dialing in FOOP Organic Bloom To fuel this rapid flower production without stalling their internal clocks, the girls have been transitioned onto a premium organic bloom regimen: FOOP Bloom 1 & Bloom 2: This core base duo is delivering a highly bioavailable punch of organic phosphorus, potassium, and fish-based micronutrients to accelerate calyx stacking and strengthen stem development. FOOP Sweetener: Infused into the feed to load up the root zone with complex carbohydrates, driving up microbial activity in the soil and giving the sisters the raw fuel they need to crank up early resin and trichome synthesis. Irrigation Setup The green automated drip rings (1000003513.jpg) ensure this organic blend is evenly distributed across the entire surface of the fabric pots, feeding the root zones consistently without creating dry pockets. Pistil Development: White hairs are actively grouping up at every node site, most prominently on Charlotte's dominant main tower Foliage Check: The fan leaves on both plants remain an incredibly vibrant, healthy green (1000003325.jpg), showing that the FOOP nutrient uptake is smooth and perfectly balanced for this stage of life. Grower's Note: Watching a single strain express itself in two totally distinct structural shapes because of a simple twist in training is what makes grow diaries so rewarding. Charlotte is maximizing her main vertical column, while Makayla is converting her flat footprint into a broad field of tops. Next week, the bud swelling truly begins!

Hello, readers! Changed solution. Even though, i'm glad it's still not roting! Not sure, what have changed, that now it's feeling good. I have done some stretching, but this was the last one. I decided to completely untie her. It's time to grow vertically! To the sky, to the sun. From the heart :D I actually have done defoliation in one of this days, but i cut only few leaves, so that doesn't count. By the end of the week, i feel like, she didn't visit barber for a months :D Will be defoliating a lot on the next week.

Stardog room it is looking pretty good and is thriving. Hopefully get the results we asking for. Aya room up to now is giving pretty impressive results and it looks like they like the enviroment even tho its not fully equiped. After adding the c4 neet to celan the insides a little bit more and see how it will react.

Wow......... She grew an EXTRA 46CM this week........ I think she likes the new blue/daylight bulb. But it probably coincides with her peak flowering stretch tbh.

En este final de la semana 3 de floraciĂłn a los nutrientes que venianos agregando, le sumamos el NIRVANA de advanced nutrients 2ml x L. Le quite algunas hojas el dĂ­a 20 , algunas que estaban amarillas y otras que tapaban algun cogollo de las ramas bajas que no quite. Algunas hojas tienen las puntas amarillas pero no se notan cambios negativos aun., pero no logro saber que problema estĂĄ teniendo. Pero en tĂ©rminos generales todo marcha bien.đŸ€žđŸ€žđŸš€đŸš€

Holy! Gorilla Cookies has really changed since last week. This plant is the size of a small child now, the buds are massive. There is a lot of fading and dead leaves becoming more prevalent. She is definitely coming to an end but still not seeing amber trichomes. Humidity is back down to the 50s and I’m checking for mold every day.

7/7/23 - Day 25 - Another water coming up tomorrow. She looks great. She is drinking so much water I have to add a ton of water every morning. 7/8/23 - Day 26 - The root is MASSIVE. This is a great sign that the plant has been doing well. The thing that gets me is how white the roots are. It's looking good for bud sites on the plant too. She has a ton of Cola areas forming now. I tried to count but lost track around 15+ cola areas, so when we move to Flower, I bet this gal gives me a ton of big buds. 7/9/23 - Day 27 - Every day, I wake up and get excited to see how much bigger she has gotten. The growth has been crazy, I've grown weed in the past, but it has never gone this well. I honestly spend 15 min a day on it. With this LEAF system, it's been super easy. The proof is in the pudding with this unit. Easiest weed I've ever grown. 7/10/23 - Day 28 - The growth is not slowing down. I refilled 1" of water to the pot today. This is the most water I have seen used in a day. Ideally, we would want to flip flowering when the plant has hit 12in. We are cutting it really close, actually, we are beyond what's rated for height. I'm going to Scrogg them some more and I would imagine Ill flip them to flowering very soon. 7/11/23 - Day 29 - Moving the tops around a bit, I'm trying to let it go as long as I can before flipping to flower.

Heute ist ein aufregender Tag im Zelt! Meine beiden Hybriden Brain Damage und High Mars scheinen sich unter den Mars Hydro FC 1500 Lampen pudelwohl zu fĂŒhlen. Die BlĂ€tter sind sattgrĂŒn und krĂ€ftig, ein Zeichen fĂŒr die optimale NĂ€hrstoffversorgung durch das Hesi Hydro Zuchtschema. Der pH-Wert liegt bei perfekten 6,2 und der EC-Wert bei 1,7. Die Temperatur im Zelt ist mit 25 Grad etwas höher als ideal, aber die Klimaanlage lĂ€uft auf Hochtouren, um sie zu senken. Auch die Luftfeuchtigkeit von 65 % ist noch etwas zu hoch, aber der Luftentfeuchter ist bereits aktiv. Die beiden Ventilatoren sorgen fĂŒr eine gute Luftzirkulation im Zelt. Heute Abend wird es dann noch mal spannend, wenn der Chiller fĂŒr die Wassertemperatur eintrifft. Ich bin gespannt, wie sich die beiden Damen in den nĂ€chsten Tagen entwickeln werden!

I'm extremely happy with how she's turning out, I want to give her another week, ideally 2.
