Got the Spider Farmer wicking system set up with a reservoir. Up until now I’ve been using purchased pure water since it came with a better starting pH than my tap. After running the numbers, the cost of hauling jugs didn’t make sense long term. I ended up grabbing an RV water inline filter for the garden hose, which strips out most of the chlorine and other contaminants I was worried about. Goal was mostly a stable water source because the girls are getting thirsty; I still prefer hand-watering to wet and activate the top dress. Access is only from one side of the 5×5, so as they bulk up I’m learning the back two are a chore to reach. The wicking pads help keep things even between rounds, but I’m still going in by hand to finish the job. Did a defoliation pass; airflow and light paths improved, but I may need to push it a bit further because I don’t want a lot of larf. Crazy how much plant material I pulled off but they seem fine. Light feels like the current yield limiter. The SF4000 is solid but a touch undersized for full 5×5 penetration, the lower canopy isn’t getting what I want. I’m eyeing a higher-wattage bar style light for better edge uniformity and deeper PAR at canopy. I’ve been testing edge light saturation with the SpiderF PPFD sensor at canopy height. Center readings are strong but the corners and long edges are clearly lacking. Smaller tent or smaller plants another option maybe. Im at 100% on my light and will be for the rest of the grow just raising it to keep distance. Plants look happy overall. The Durban Cookies is standing out, taller and more vigorous than the 10th Planets especially for being a week younger than the rest. I am guessing it will be harvested first just by stretch speed alone. The 10th Planets R1s all have a pretty even canopy going but showing stretch. Wicking system + hand-water combo is keeping the media right where I want it, and the top dress from last week is kicking in. Reminding everyone this is my first grow. Hoping for a pound dry, but I won’t be greedy. Keeping my expectations realistic! Thanks for following along.

After overfeeding the plants in the past, I've been feeding not enough, lateley. Plant #1 shows nutrient deficiencies. after giving more nutrients, plant #1 seems to recover. The build up of flowers is amasing. The flowers smell really sweet.😀

This week marks the 10th and likely final week of my autoflower grow. The buds have really filled out and are covered in a thick layer of trichomes. Most pistils have turned orange/brown, and the plant is giving off a strong, pungent aroma. Under close inspection, the trichomes are mostly cloudy with some beginning to turn amber – a clear sign she’s nearly ready for harvest. The fan leaves have started fading and curling slightly, especially lower down, which is to be expected at this stage. I stopped feeding nutrients around a week ago and have been flushing with just water to clean out any remaining salts. She’s still drinking well and hasn’t shown any major stress signs. Overall, I’m really happy with how this run turned out. She stayed compact, didn’t stretch too much, and produced some dense, frosty buds. I’ll probably gave her 2–3 more days before the chop – just to let a few more amber trichomes develop for that nice relaxing effect So i cutet her 2 days later because of the to high humidity , because i dont want bud

We are almost at operational capacity .... last week of veg under this massive light for batch 001... included pic of veg tent which is technically batch 001.... Need help sexing the middle plant! it came from bagseed (black ice gelato) and I need to avoid crosspollination. over feeding but I'm glad i'm learning now ahead of next batches.. dialing in things nicely... happy with growth and health of the plants.... just a matter of time.... love the support so far ... please help me with identifying males if you can! :)

new crop ... we'll see how it grows ... outdoors....let's see what she offers us outdoor ... and what color she can show us ...

Just realized that this dearie wont be finished in time for the competition, with all the delays and with bad math on my side, dont ask me how i did it i dont know , she is still far from ready , my apologies to Ganja Farmer for this fail, non so ever she is a champion for me no matter what, and specially now after all the love and attending she is requiring from me, this one is taking so much of everything, she is a peculiar one , that is looking amazing and the smell OMG she smell like CRAZY , i mean its retarded CRAZY how much she smells hahaha loving it . Appart from that bugs are doing the job they are supposed to do , still see thrips all over but that is normal for now and it will get better along the next couple weeks or so. Started my K supplement and raise all of the rest since this one is always starving , dont ask me how lol but she always is hehehe As always thank you all for stoping by, for checking my journey , for the love support and for it all, i am blessed and humble with you all.

Der Stretch is ist im vollem Gange und den Lady geht es soweit gut ! 2 Der Damen haben ein etwas schlechteres Wachstum,sie wurden etwas mehr aufgebockt um nicht unter zu gehn.Teils wurde ein wenig etwas Untergestellt um das Höhenwachstum den größten Pflanzen anzupassen.Nachdem ich die Pflanzen überprüft habe musste ich leider feststellen das zwei Damen von oben bis unten voller Säcke waren.Diese wurden sofort entfernt ! Bei allen anderen passt alles soweit. 😉

Week 2 of Flower (Day 56 since sprouted) Just maintaining temps and adjusting light distance. Fed with 1/2 gallon of feed water PH 6.5 -TPS CalMag 1 mil -General Hydroponics Trio -TPS Signal 5 mil per 1 gallon Light defoliating

Y hemos llegado al final de esta semana mas que satisfecho con los resultados, no me canso de verlas sobre todo dos de ellas por los tonos purpuras que desarrollaron ya desde el inicio de la floración. Por el momento no me atrevido con la malla pero el tutorado para aprender a jugar con las técnicas de bajo estrés y ver como se comportan las plantas ha resultado realmente divertido.

All good!!!❤️

Started to see the buds develop early at the end of last week. This week I put my rebuild-able scrog net in. This thing will really let the room fill out nicely.

Flipped the lights to 12/12, plants have initiated their stretch. I switched the compost tea brew to Terp Tea Bloom.

Just approaches week 7, I don't know when to initiate the dragon force, kill feed and then flush, iv gotta buy a camera lens this week to check trichomes but I'm nearing the end

Hey guys :-) She is growing great and will be ready for the flowering tent in the coming days :-) A few cuttings are taken beforehand. Was poured 2 times with 1 l each. I'm looking forward to the start of flowering :-) have fun and stay healthy 🙏🏻 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 You can buy this Nutrients at : https://shop.greenhousefeeding.com/us/ 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 You can buy this strain at : https://www.amsterdamgenetics.com/product/double-blue/ Water 💧 💧💧 Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC.

*WEEK 1 DAY 6 OF FLOWER* Flipped the light to 12/12 6days ago and started scrogging I also gave her quite a huge defol 5days after the switch for better light penetration and airflow, for the first week everday ill be checking on the canopy any tops that are growing too tall compared to others will be trained underneath the scrog net, resulting in even light penetration throughout the whole canopy giving lower buds better light and of course the main reason - keeping the plants small :) started to implement the boost additives to boost K intake and i have also added a exhale co2 bag above the canopy to hopefully boost the co2 levels and promote faster, better growth! the deficiency i mentioned in the last week of veg, is not looking to get worse or worsening hmmmm strange effected leaves have been removed and overall she looks great! i dont wanna get to ahead of myself yet! as we still have a long way to go, but for my first run as from up to know i am pretty happy with myself and the growth of plant, i see so many growers with basic and even really bad deficiencys/diseases from early growth! even throughout there whole growth cycle... yes i have noticed a few weird things throughout the cycle but nothing extreme no NPK deficiencys so i am really pleased with this run! roll on the next ;) Wish me further look guys, Lets Grow!

The stretch for 2 plants in particular went crazy on the left it’s a super skunk On the right it’s a sweet cherry kush. I’m still wondering if I really need to defoliate a little bit.

This has been one more great week. The girls look good and are starting to head towards the finish line. I lowered the nuts to 1,58EC and they seem to like it like that. I also started using the runoff water to hand water(1,3l per plant, 1.4EC) them both in the morning and in the evening to prevent build-up of salts. I did a big defoliation right at the end of this week, so the lower buds can get more light and to increase air flow. I think 2 more weeks and they're done.
