Grow Specs: Breeder: Mephisto Genetics Strain: Cosmic Queen F4 Nicknames: Timantha - CQ1 Genetic heritage: Spacedawg From TGA Seeds x Chemdogging F4 Indica/Sativa: 30/70 Est. cycle time: 65-75 days from sprout Medium: CQ1 = Soil, Mephisto Genetics Super Soil, Worm Castings. CQ2 = Soil, home made Subcool Super Soil variant, worm castings Lights: 132W actual LED Update schedule: I will try to send out the updates every Saturday or Sunday. For more frequent updates, add me on Instagram @grimbolthedruid Grow Schedule to Date: Sprout: 3/1/17 (Full moon) Age: Day 25 as of 3/25/18 Updates/Observations: - Water only for this last week and next. Soil is very hot so I don't need to cycle any of those nutrients down right now. - Plants showing light burns on lower foliage but nothing serious yet. - Trying to keep the soil always slightly moist and never let it dry completely to keep microbes (and by extension the soil) at optimum health. - CQ1 is still miniaturized and has shown sex so I think she is going to finish very small, if she makes it at all. I am worried the hot soil will burn her down because she wont ever get big. - CQ2s leaves show a very strong Sativa expression and I love it. - CQ2 is growing very vigorously. - All plant showing sex (F). Worm Feeding: - This week I fed my worms about a pound or so total of: Banana, mango, dill, tomatoes, carrots, strawberries, aloe filet, green beans, covered in a dash of oyster shell and alfalfa meal. - I layer down some canna leaves, layer diced up worm food, sprinkle dry amendments (kelp, oyster shell, neem, etc.), layer canna leaves, then replace bedding and they are happy! - Creating the food layer protected by the green manure gives the worms a nice buffer zone to move freely through eating as much as they want. - This method is inspired by HerbinFarmer on Youtube. I really enjoy his videos so if you have time, check him out! Cheers! G

New week, new growth.. Will hopefully start the LST and Topping in a few days. They are really starting to grow. Fan leaves looking healthy and big. Girls coming with vigorous growth now, everything dialled in and happy. Just adjusting the EC/pH as needed when the girls show me the relevant signs/deficiencies if any. D31/D35- Decided they were in a good enough place to start topping the girls, all 6 topped and just some defoliation of the bigger fan leaves that are shading the growth shoots some HST was also done. We were also due a water change, so I cleaned the whole system just to keep things extra cleanly, very important in a RDWC system. I also switched over to a sterile system instead of using beneficial bacteria so I will experiment and see how this goes. Time to let the girls ecover before the next training session. Cruise control for now.

I’m so hyped for this skunk to be finished! 🌿🔥 The scent is getting insane and the frost is looking heavy. ❄️💨 I can’t wait to finally harvest this beauty. A message to Zondy: I need to get this off my chest. Zondy, I am deeply sorry. I lied to you, and looking back, I realize I’ve been a terrible person. I acted like a complete jerk, and you didn't deserve that. I truly regret how I handled things and I'm sorry for being such a bad friend. Current Grow Status: The girls in the box are looking solid: • Temperature: Stable at 22.7°C • Humidity: 52.1% (ideal for this stage) • VPD: 1.32 kPa • Light: 100% power A Peace Offering for Zondy 🌿 The air in the tent is heavy and sweet, But my heart is heavy with the lies I repeat. Zondy, my brother, I drifted astray, I acted a fool and threw trust away. I was a shadow, a ghost in the wrong, While these green queens grew sturdy and strong. I’m sorry for failing, for being so low, I’m a terrible man, and I want you to know. But look at these crystals, this skunk in the light, Let it burn through the darkness and make it all right. Let’s spark up the peace, let the smoke clear the air, Until only the truth and the friendship are there.

Neues Licht, etwas größer & die Pflanze ist sehr gut gewachsen. Ab & an Licht hochziehen, wenn die Pflanze wächst, damit die Pflanze nicht unnötig gestresst wird. Interessante helle Blätter. Vielleicht Genetik, vielleicht etwas wenig Nährstoff erhalten, oder zu viel. So direkt kann ich nicht sagen woher. Da die Pflanze einen sehr guten Eindruck macht. Trotz spargeliger Erscheinung.

First, so sorry again for the lame and horrible pictures. I lost the every single picture I took, the whole process :( and had to take a few just before harvest with a lame phone. This wasn't hard to train at all. Took all the heavy defolation I did like a champ. I just messed up with the nute intake. I can't ask more of this light so I'm quite happy with the results. I've learned so much since my first grow that I'm honestly happy with what I'm getting. I used topping in the fifth node, lst and net for scrog I later had to remove. Next time I'll repeat the same thing but I'll leave less branches and focus on getting them as fat as they can. Too many popcorn bud with so many branches, light can't go trough like with less branches. I could write so much about the smell of this one. At some point IT WAS vanilla, during the cutting process I moved it quite a bit and strangely, it was pure mint. Growing it, it was extremely sweet and a bit earthy, never leaving the vanilla touches. I'll stick with Barney's for a few more plants. It was a resistant and lovely plant to grow.

UPDATES: - Pushed them a little too hard as you can tell by the pics, pushed temps up to 31/32'C. Pulled temps back down to 29'C, seems to be the sweet spot. -Just waiting to harvest GENETICS: -MSNL - Gorilla Glue Auto ~ my favorite strain, as you can tell by my username! WATER: -Condensed (Starting at 40ppm) -Disinfected prior to adding nutrients etc. (Using COOSPIDER UVC - 253nm & 187nm bulb) CLIMATE: - Ambient Air Temp = 29'C ~ 28'C LST ~ Leaf to air temp variance of between 1'C - Night Temp = 22/23'C ~ Day/Night temp differential 6-7'C - Under Canopy Temp: 26'C (Day) ~ 21'C (Night) - Relative Humidity = 50-60%RH (Avg. 55%RH) - VPD = 1.45kPa (Avg.) - Co2 ranges from 900ppm to 1500ppm (Avg. 1200ppm) AIR PRESSURE: - Ambient Air Pressure (outside tent) = Mean Avg. 1010 mbars (101 Kilopascals) - Actual Air Pressure (inside tent) = Mean Avg. 1005 mbars (100.5 Kilopascals) - Air Pressure Differential = up to 0.5 kPa range between inside & outside LIGHT: - UVB ~ 2 hours daily mid light cycle. - Warm White 3000K/White 5000k/Far Red (660nm) - At plant canopy = PPFD 900-1000umols/s/m2 ~ Lux 45,000-55,000 ~ Daily Light Integral 55-65 - Under canopy lighting ~ Blue (460nm)/ Red (630nm) NUTRIENTS: - Mostly Advanced Nutrients (For base nutrients and most additives, as only company I could find scientific data on) - Canna (For Calmag Agent and Cannazym) - Plant Success (Great White Mycorrhizae) ADDITIONAL GROW TECHNIQUES: - Mostly getting out of the plants way and letting nature take its course. - Some LST. (i.e. tying down branches and tucking large leaves away) - No HST or Defoliation. INFECTION PREVENTION & CONTROL: Infection control practices i.e -PPE, Alcohol Hand wash -Gray room outside tent, -Carbon filter -HEPA filter -Plasma Ionizer -Inline UV-C germicidal bulb - Also using an additional higher powered COOSPIDER (UVC) 253nm & 187nm bulb, to disinfect the gray room outside of the tent once a week for 30 mins. - Ozone (o3) gas that is produced using the COOSPIDER, is then directed into the tent to further control any unwanted pathogens. - Ed Rosenthal (Zero Tolerance organic pesticide), sprayed once a week as preventative measure. On hand for heavier use (Once every 3 days before lights out for 15 days) in the case of an outbreak (No outbreaks yet, due to aforementioned preventative measures)

Planted 4 seeds of AK48 Auto directly in the soil. I used toilet paper rolls as cups. The first seed sprouted on Day 6.

🌱(BT 40) 🌱Es sind verschiedene phenos zum Vorschein gekommen aber sie entwickeln sich bisher super 👍 Es gibt keine großen Veränderungen in den zusätzen☕ es geht weiter mit @Hesi_Official Dünger und die rlf Passt auch wieder wie gewünscht mit der ich zwischenzeitlich etwas zu kämpfen hatte aber das ließ sich gut gegensteuern mit der Infrarotmatte 👍 AKF von @VIVOSUN hält auch stand ohne zicken Bis dato Links die XS 1500 pro mit 36 cm Abstand und 85% Leistung derzeit✅ Rechts die M100 Pro von Wizard of Bloom mit 31cm Abstand und 100% Leistung ✅ Mir persönlich gefällt Spektrum und Vitalität sowie Performance unter der M100 etwas besser der Wuchs ist bedeutend kompakter und die Blüten gehen fast bis zur Erde das ist echt Wahnsinn 👍✅☣️ Die Research Reihe von @SensiSeeds läuft bisher ohne große Probleme und es ist eine Freude zuzusehen 😁

she's been in flush for nearly a week. still about another week left, im loving this strain. Been an easy grow, was still hungry for nitrogen early flower other than that has been a breeze, has luscious dense sour buds top to bottom, mephistos genetics are the best when it comes to autos that's for sure

End of day 61 flower. Both girls have been sitting in the dark since Yesterday @8pm. Will be taking them down on Thursday afternoon. Split the stem on both and flushed with florakleen for 3 days and now only on RO water. Adding a few ice cubes to the solution 2 or 3 times per day to keep the temp down. The last 12 hours remaining I will take all the water out of both buckets to let them know that the end is near and hopefully get some more frost from that. It’s been over 120 days since these two got seeded together and it’s been one hell of a journey. I got a bunch of clones off them and will have more grows on those coming up soon. I’ve learn a lot about what these girls like and hope to get a better yield with the clones. Next update will be the harvest. Take care and thanks for following along. 🤗

Off to the races after the first week of veg. And the girls are looking good. They had about 24-48 hours of transplant shock but have since turned over and look perky. They never fully transitioned and all of em look like they’re turning back around. Definitely starting to see some pheno variation on one of the indicas (F6) - trademark from the Skywalker 100%. A light bluish/purpleish hue on the fan leaves. We’ll see what happens over the next week then probably just pick a day and flip. We don’t need em huge - just big enough to show off dem buds. On the hardware side of this grow, the mods to the dutchy system look to be working well. It just makes plant management easier with a full trough drain as opposed to individual drainage holes. Really, the system isn’t a concern for the most part. It’s proven time and time again how manageable a recirc system can truly be. Scaling down to smaller pots and more plants has also been a revelation of sorts around here. We used to grow monsters and now the aim is strictly proportional yields across a wider array of genetics. Been a great trip so far🤟. Couple more boring weeks of veg. And as soon as the breeding tent is cleaned up and pollen free - it’s go for blast-off👍. Background This cycle of clones represents all the potential of this F1 line of WalkerBerry OG. Bred by myself over the last couple of years. This genetic shows excellent hybrid vigour, incredibly stable nutrition requirements to date and an eclectic mix of long and short internodal spacing bu specimen. We know we have indica and sativa dominant traits spread evenly across the 6 available clones. Now it’s just a matter of seeing them run out under controlled and pollen free conditions. We’ve labelled each plant and it’s resulting seed accordingly. Once we get to the F2 run, we’ll hopefully be able to isolate down to 2-3 phenos if the bud is any good. From there, who knows. It’d be great to get to a finished, stable generation that would be fem worthy but that could be a very long way off. For now - we’ll focus on this line and see where it goes🤞🤞.

because shes so huge i can not move her an inch.. so no flush happened and i went straight in to ripen feed. I hope she finishes up by next week because i have to cut buds away every day with mold. Lol its still going to produce a lot
