Hello fellow growers, I harvested my plant on Day 68 of the flowering stage. The buds are now hung up and drying in an environment with a relative humidity (RH) of 55-60% and temperatures ranging from 18°C to 21°C, I've set up two fans to keep the air moving gently around the drying space. Today marks Day 6 of drying, and I'm aiming for a nice, slow dry to preserve the quality of the buds, followed by a dry trim. Reflecting on this grow, I can see areas where I could have improved, but considering it's my first time, I believe I've done a commendable job. There are quite a few larfy buds underneath, but the top buds, which were closest to the light, turned out great. I initially thought I had nailed the training techniques, but as soon as I flipped her into the flowering stage, she got out of control. This experience has taught me the importance of being even more disciplined with my training methods in future grows. Overall, I'm thrilled with the outcome and have learned valuable lessons for my next run. Can't wait to see how these buds turn out after curing! Wish me luck as I move into the final stages of this journey. Let's Grow!

Insane stretch this week.. that single super cropping pinch and lay over a few weeks ago has really paid off. It went from about 6 or 8 inches to almost 20 in two weeks. Looks like I'll be needing to support these side branches toward the end.

11/30: I harvested the first 6 today, flushed 5 more for the second time, and fed everybody else for the last time. I washed all the branches using the 4-step method ascribed by Doc Bud at High Times/420magazine and many other notable cannabis connoisseurs, with slight modifications: 4 x big plastic totes/bins 8 x ounces of 12% hydrogen peroxide (or 32 ounces of 3%) 2 x cups of concentrated lemon juice 2 x cups of baking soda 10 x gallons of water in each bin Unless your tap water stinks, you're safe to use tap water for the procedure, but I used an inline carbon hose filter to fill my buckets. Bin #1 - 10 gallons of water mixed with the hydrogen peroxide Bin #2 - 10 gallons of water mixed with the lemon juice and baking soda Bin #3 - 10 gallons of water as hot tap water Bin #4 - 10 gallons of cold tap water I was mainly concerned about removing as much lint and cat/dog hair as possible, but also rinsing off any residue left from all the various foliar applications of humic/fulvic acid, kelp, axiom, big bloom, and tiger bloom I did. First, I put my leaf blower on low speed and blasted my plants thoroughly, one at a time, replicating 50-60mph winds for about 10 seconds and watched as a whirlwind of debris and hair flew out the back door. Bud-washing: Pluck any necrotic plant material and any old fan leaves off while they're still on the plant. Then, take a handful of branches and submerge them in Bin #1 for about 30 seconds, agitating it, removing from water, submerging again, agitating, etc...then remove it and let it drip out for a few seconds...then repeat the process with Bins #2-4. Let it drip dry overnight with a little bit of airflow, then dry as you normally would...baskets, boxes, etc.. I hadn't watered these plants in a few days, so they were almost in draught, but after doing this procedure, they were fully hydrated(turgid) and seemed to have brighter colors than before. Nice!😍 12/1: The bottom part of the closet seems empty with only 9 plants in there.. 😟 I cut the harvested plants up and put them into drying baskets in the top of my closet with a small oscillating fan on. I've got the temperature fluctuating between 68f and 75f and the RH is staying between 48% and 52%. To do that, I had to take down the small light in the top of the closet to fit the drying baskets up there. So, I moved the 3 shorter plants still up there down to the bottom and put them on top of buckets. Now the bottom of the closet looks full again!😃 I'm anxious to finish up this grow so I can get busy growing the Fastbuds Fast Flowering Photo Testers!!! When I harvest the next 5, I'll flush the remaining plants really well and that will be all the flushing they'll get..I'll let them dry back out for a few days and harvest them. I've got to make some minor improvements to the garden (adding UV, blue and red/far red booster panels and intake fans) That should put me on track to start germinating them by mid-December if all goes well. 12/3: ...early a.m... The harvested plants are already dry!?!?? And have excellent texture??? Wow..bud washing is for real..roughly 48 hours after I hung them to drip dry, and 40 hours after I put them in baskets in 50% RH/70f conditions with moderate airflow...usually takes 4 or 5 days to get a good slow-dry in the same conditions, so I'm convinced that this must be attributed to the bud-washing procedure. I'm sold! Here's the talley so far: plant #1 - 115g (plus 13g larf) - Candy Cane [F2] plant #2 - 108g (plus 18g larf) - Candy Cane [F2] plant #3 - 119g (plus 15g larf) - C4ndycaine [Candy Cane x C4] plant #4 -  92g (plus 6g larf) - Candy Cane [F2] - the smallest plant in the main area plant #5 - 112g (plus 22g larf) - Candesia [Candy Cane x Amnesia] plant #6 -  75g (no larf) - Candesia [Candy Cane x Amnesia] - grown in upper area under 200w ...afternoon: I flushed 6 of the last 7 plants for the first time today and harvested 4 more of them. I washed them and hung them to dry.....my dripping wet bathing beauties!😍

-Sensi Seeds Research: The Sensi Seeds Research breeding project has created eleven cannabis seed varieties. How? By combining new cannabis cultivars with a selection of strains from their long-established cannabis gene bank. For the first time in thirty-six years, they are opening the doors of the Sensi Seeds Research and Development Department. Week #13, week 5 of Flowering. Well well well... everything is going well 😄 Or should I say, swell swell swell... everything is going to swell 😉 As I said in previous week, they started to drink like maniacs ( 2 liters more in the week ), meaning swell is starting now (👈 the tip is free bro, just hit the like and subscribe if you want some more 😎), flowers opening is over. Dehumidifiers are set on 55% and will decrease 5% by 5% each weeks now. I will keep an eye on the buds, particularly the new genetics, as I never grow them before I don’t know their resistance to mold, but I believe these strains should be tough enough as everyone is in perfect condition and all healthy. I have finally found a better lightening solution for the middle of the room. You can really see the difference between Pictures A and B. The Mars Hydro SP 250 is definitely the best LED solution for its price, you can get a serious LED light which is bright enough to be able to grow some serious buds like a pro, and I can tell just by seeing the quality and the intensity of the spectrum from my experience. This LED light will make you say WOW when you plug it in and each time you will see it turning on, for sure 👍 Before receiving this baby, I’ve read the driver becomes hot, but in my definition something hot, is something that you can’t handle more than a few seconds... to be honest, for me this driver becomes a bit warm and you can handle it with no problem. And one last thing about this driver, it is removable, in case if you personally think it’s too hot for your growing area. So I would definitely recommend the SP 250 for anyone who has understand that serious buds grows under serious lights, without spending one month of salary in one light just to impress the galleria 😊 Enter in de dance, plug it in an we begin Crowd up in de center, they watch fi de rydim Watch the way we drop it in a mix timin’ Rise and amplifyin’ when we come in wit de swing Just followin the back and naturally harmonizin’ Climb into position wit synchronized things Live from out a ghetto, we maximazin’ We superstylin’ lin’ lin’ lin’... 😎 (I’m looking for a job in the Cannabis industry as Master Grower, Mineralogist, Quality Control 🐞)

.. Week2 start to use beneficial nutrients and switch the light only 18 hours per day.⏰ {Activities} (Day 8) First day of the week, i dont't water the plants. (Day 9) Second day use some nutrients, there're Cal-mag 0.3ml./L. , Bio-heaven 2ml./L. , Acti-vera and Fish-Mix each 1ml./L. (Day 10) ....Practice the dharma So calm🧘‍♂️..Just observe them. Nice growing (Day 11) Use a Root-juice 4ml/2L. I think the roots will not walk to the bottom of the pot if the watering does not reach so I should add 1 liter of water per a plant. (Day 12) Today I should add more fan for my grow tent so today I'm buying new one , switch the light to 75% and Lamp To Plant Distance 24-26inches . (Day 13)...This day I'm not do anything about my plants but learning about toping and cloning a plant or other training a plant. (Day 14) The last day water the plants but use only water.🚿 Hope you like and enjoy my diary. Thank you so much for checking out my grows. Feel free to leave a comment, push the like or give the follow.

She is not gaining anymore... Guess she will ripen, bigger plant, but still not a bigger harvest... The sap eaters r still present, but only focus on this Diesel... And they are not explodin, I'm guessing it's near a good balance, with enough natural predators. Also, I pick random beetles from the street and release it in the tent, found a lady but once....

Explosion part 3! This plant is considered Autoflowering, but I would say is most likely a regular one! She is just HUUUGE, hopefully I was able to stop her growing but side branches reached the 83cm and almost touching the LED... I've introduced Bloombastic (0.5ml per liter) and I will gradually increase till 1.5ml per liter and stop when will be time to flush. Buds are getting bigger but I'm thinking that she will need at least 3 more full weeks... Hopefully with some good results at the end! I obligatory defoliated her and also removed some small side branches, without any stress encountered. I'll keep you guys posted, stay tuned, stay high!

Thought I’d join the tiny pot challenge for fun. This is a Smoothie Autoflower from Fastbuds in a skull chalice! -Placed seed with pointed tip downwards directly into Ocean Forest in chalice. -Sprayed the top with a tiny bit of water -Placed into tent that’s temp/humidity is staying constant at 77-79F and 65-70%RH -Soil seems to be drying very quickly so added more water until it was moist and put a small humidity dome on top -Was having some issues with the soil drying up too quick so I started over with a peat pellet like I usually do and the seed popped in 3 days. Should have done this in the first place 😝

Well i ran into some problems, water temps too high over the weekend (i wasn't there) but roots and plant still looked healthy despise 24,5°C water temp over 2 days. I added 2,5ml each Hydro A & B on day 15. EC rised to 0,89 / PPM 445 and two days later ppm still the same i guess because the only part of the root touching the water couldn't uptake any nutes because of the high water temp? (everything above the water looks healthy af tho) Since my apartment is usually really hot in the summer i bought a TEC peltier water cooler + pump and a thermo regulator to ensure the water temps will stay between 20 and 21°C. i just need to wire that up and diy saved me me a lot of money. i payed about 100€ and have automatic temperature control and a cooler from amazon about 200+ € so i think its fine. I'll show you the set up once it's completed and works. Its the best budget cooling i could get my hands on imo. Today is Day 19 my parts came and i really managed it to half ass wire shit and not burning down something. wish me luck. I payed a total of 93,22€ and now got a really quiet, 150w DIY Peltier/TEC) cooler that automatically turns on once the water temp hits 21°C (69,8F) and stops when hitting 20°C. So far its working REALLY well. like im amazed and so proud i managed to do that and it was pretty easy. i had big problems with temps in my attic flat and water temps quickly rising to 24° and more which means root rot. Since i use the cooler all new roots just looking healthy as fuck. the plant is growing well and i see every day progress. So i saved a shit ton of money. the cheapest water cooler i could find on amazon was around 350+€. Sure it bet it works better, is safer to touch, not very likely to cause burning down my house because i had to twist copper wires together and let 230V run trough it BUT no way i have that much money for things like that. The cooler cools water temps from 21,5° to 20° in about 15minutes. the longer it runs the better it cools. i bought a temperature controller outlet ( 25€) which let me set 2 temps and it turning the cooler on and off. I had to cool it down manually every 2 hours before with frozen water bottles💀 So here are the stats for day 19: Water Temps: 20-21°C / pH: 5.42 / PPM: 485 / EC: 0.96 / height: 2,5cm (lol) (i added some more Hydro A and B because i thought i maybe see some nitrogen deficiency) i bet i will see some RAPID growth now since everything is dialed in, hopefully lol 150g im coming!

I thought I just had two of this strain, but it turns out that the 134g plant was actually a C4 hybrid! It isn't as pungent smelling as the others, but seems to have it's own unique flavor going on. I like it! 115g - C4ndycaine [Candy Cane x C4] 134g - C4ndycaine [Candy Cane x C4] 151g - C4ndycaine [Candy Cane x C4]  TOTAL: 400g 👍

This strain is currently satisfying us greatly, in fact the mainlined one is the best for now without a doubt, its name is King Louis Automatic. Remember that we are growing a plant worked with the indicated techniques and another left to grow without pruning to preserve its speed; in the previous/next diary you will find the other plant of the same variety. This plant has started flowering after a Main Lining that was a success in a Masterful way thanks to a good grower and a fantastic plant with a wide internodal distance: topping at the second internode, creation of the Mainfold, the brunches have stretched naturally and parallel to the ground with just a little pressure, no sign of breakage, fraying of the hemp, nothing. Everything very graceful, aligned and in rhythm. Truly everything is in its place, fingers crossed we will be able to see a mega result. Comparison is the salt of experience, so the plant in the other diary will be treated very differently, go and see it to make a comparison. We started the Plagron fertilization program, we are in 100% organic configuration, the soil is composed of recycled Promix + 1/3 fresh soil + 10% Perlite + RQS Mycorrhizae Mix (4 g in the mix, 1 g under the small fiber pot). In the middle of the week the pre-flowering began so I decided to start the program for this phase: 1 ml/l of Power Roots - 1 ml/l of Pure Zym - 1 ml/l of Sugar Royal - 1 ml/l of Power Buds - 2 ml/l of Alga Bloom Remember the Green Sensation from the 3rd/4th week of flowering depending on the flowering speed or how you see the calyxes composing, when the calyx is in the swelling phase it is used. We sprayed 5ml/l of Vita Race foliar fertilizer once a week. ------------------------------------------------- https://plagron.com/it We always have the excellent RQS mycorrhizae running through the soil. https://www.zamnesia.io/it/5778-mix-micorrhiza-easy-roots.html Love this strain perfect for main lining! ---- https://www.zamnesia.io/it/11238-zamnesia-seeds-king-louis-automatic.html Brief description of Zamnesia // Say hello to true royalty with King Louis Auto, an autoflowering version of the original King Louis. Bred from OG Kush, LA Confidential and a premium ruderalis cutting, King Louis Auto delivers premium bud fit for a king just a few weeks after germination. As if that wasn't enough, her small size and vigor make her great for almost any grow environment. Incredibly efficient King Louis Auto has inherited the best traits of her photoperiod cousin, all wrapped up in a fast and easy-to-grow seed. With good soil and adequate watering, King Louis Auto seeds will quickly grow into robust and vigorous plants. Once fully mature, these plants will not exceed 80cm indoors, meaning they can easily fit into even the smallest of grow spaces. Likewise, outdoor plants will only reach 100cm, making this strain ideal for guerrilla grows or other environments where discretion is key. And if that wasn't enough, King Louis Auto only takes 9–10 weeks from germination to harvest, after which she'll reward you with yields of up to 300g/m² indoors and 150g/plant outdoors. With its pungent terpenes and high THC levels, King Louis Auto offers a fragrant and relaxing experience. When you open your jars of buds, you'll immediately notice intense scents of pine, damp earth and fragrant wood. After inhaling her equally complex smoke or vapor, you'll be hit with a deep, relaxing body stone that's perfect for those moments of well-earned rest and relaxation. With 24% THC, King Louis Auto hits hard and takes ef The whole world of growing and much more is on Zamnesia: just take a look at the site and you will find "all the best that nature has to offer" in various shapes and colors. --------------- www.zamnesia.com
