Day 36 LST complete yesterday, side branches are tied down For this plant, I am letting it grow straight up like I grew Fastbuds Bruce Banner This looks very much like Bruce Banner which is very exciting because Bruce Banner still remains tied with Pineapple Express for the most face melting autos ive ever grown PPM are very low, I will be only tripart, there is enough Silicate sediment, and Cal Mag in the pool, leafs are very green The plant is showing its female sex organs, and is approaching the flowering stage Day 37 Expansive growth everywhere The pool will be changed tomorro for pre-flowering nutrients Day 38 Pre-flowering nutrients are installed, all is looking well posted a video for the week her leaves are very thick and mature. The leaves on the stem, the large fan leafs, have the hardest stems ive felt on an autoflower. This is certainly a new generation of Autos from 2 years ago, the smell is becoming very nice Day 39 I removed some more bottom brush from the plant, all those runt limbs that will only be larf are gone. I also removed one of the first limbs that was a runt. This strain loves to be pruned, this is its 2nd bottom clear out and she always comes back with so much growth, now the top colas can all form nicely without the bottom waste DWC very healthy, she is drinking about 3 litres a day right now I am using a 1/2 strength pre-flower blend. It's the TA bottle measurements just cut in half. Ive purposely not let this one go above 800ppm due to Fastbuds advice that this one is particularly sensitive to nutrients. Day 40 Growth explosion, everywhere has expanded The leafs are very mature, slender Sativa traits Uploaded some macro shots of the preflowers, they are very healthy Day 41 Everything is going well, she is growing fast Day 42 Huge increase in growth overnight, and she is drinking about 3 litres a day right now This is thepreflower stretch phase

Ok had a long week various problems with humidty and temp issues led me to upgrade tent from 1.2 x 1.2 to a new 2.4 x 1.2 x 2.0 also changed the flower lights to the x 2 viparspectar 450 reflectors along with the new white lighting 315 watt cdm all in one light with there 4k flower pro bulb the plants are loving the new space and abundance of lights any tips comments etc feel free to msg

So last day of training. Going to do a bit more defoliation and triming but for the most part that's it. Got another 7-8 weeks to go before she's done and I can't wait. Had a bit of a issue with the humidity and temperature this last week. Humidity was staying just under 40% tell today and the temperature was droping to 16c at night when the light was off. But it's getting warmer outside so hopefully that won't happen again. Well that's all for now, keep growing!!!

Auch hier nochmal eine Erholungsphase vor dem letzten Topping und dem finalen schneiden und trainieren vor der Einleitung der Blüte. Die Eingriffe hat sie bisher gut weggesteckt und die Canopy ist dicht und vital. So kann ich sie ideal vorbereiten, um dann am Ende eine stabile Pflanze mit hoffentlich dicken und schweren Buds zu haben...😉

1/11/2024 Vegetation Week 1 Day 1- I have a root almost in the water.. Yay!! Top feeding is almost done. she is looking a little sad as I work the transition Top feeding but once the roots are fully in the water she will start to take off. Ensured my PPFD is set between 250-300 it is set to: 258 1/12/2024 Vegetation Week 1 Day 2- I have a root in the water.... NO TOP FEED TODAY SIR!!! now that a root is touching the water and she looks stable, I am not going to topfeed, I will see how she looks tomorrow and as long as everything looks good I am going to go ahead and do a change and week 1 fill on Nutes.. I know it is a couple of days in but the same Nutes go through Week 2 and get changed at Week 3 So I should be good to go.. I will just ensure I fill to root touching the water when I change tomorrow. 1/13/2024 Vegetation Week 1 Day 3- Water Change Day!! I added 36 Gallons of Water to the system: Silica= .5mil/gal= 18mil CalMag= .75mil/gal = 27mil FloraMicro=3.0mil/gal = 108mil FloraGro=2.0mil/gal = 72mil FloraBloom= 2.0mil/gal = 72mil PH DOWN= 30mil Very important thing with this system is to now wait the 24 hours for the system to adjust.. Do not make any further adjustments to your PH up or Down for 24 hours to allow time for the system to balance. 1/14/2024 Vegetation Week 1 Day 4- Today I just adjusted the PH to ensure that it was right at 6.0 1/15/2024 Vegetation Week 1 Day 5- Today I Cleaned up the lower damaged leaves from the transition from top feeding to roots in the water. She looks good today. 1/16/2024 Vegetation Week 1 Day 6- Today I just took a picture of the beautiful lady for Log. Other than that just normal day to day operations, check the pH, check the Humidifiers and fill as necessary, check level of water in the Res. Everything looks great. onto Tomorrow!! 1/17/2024 Vegetation Week 1 Day 7- Today I filled the humidifers, checked the PH and just let her grow.. Grow baby Grow.....

Everything is going good, this week covers from Dec.4 to the 11th. The plants had a major accident due to me not securing the light and not realizing my kids slamming the fridge would knock it free of the stand, leaves were burnt by led light but luckily the plants were praying and it just burnt the tips of the First Single leaves.

4/28 Day 35 I wish this plant was bigger. Could be my fault. Her transition to flower was at such an odd time(3weeks) and that’s when her last feeding was coming to an end but should I give her flower nutes early? Do half an half? Or just wait and then give flower? I waited and I shouldn’t have considering that organic inputs take time to feed your plants. Depending on what you’re using. First time trying Gaia green. I do like the ease of it but it would take some adjustments for me to utilize it best. A month between feeding is too long for my impatient ass and it gives me too long of a commitment to not fuck up. I’m also using roots organics with some other plants and I’m really liking the weekly feedings. It makes more sense than a month. What if I have a strain that’s like 10 week flower? Do I just do another dose at week 7 and 8 and then because it’s “organic you don’t need to flush” thing. Probably over thinking it but yeah here’s my plant yall 😂

Sie macht sich weiterhin gut, nur das Zelt ist bald zu Ende... bitte nicht weiter stretchen

All is running smoothly. Upped calmag and started feeding tiger bloom. A few yellow leaves on bottom every couple of days. Will be doing a heavier defoliation this week. Photos/video taken 77 days after breaking soil, day 14 of flower

I saw some white dots and I was worried there was some kind of infestation. The grow area wasn't really isolated from the rest of the house so I think it was just dirt but I wanted to be safe so I sprayed then with insecticidal soap and rinsed them off in the tub.

FIMed her for the last time, continuing to train her throughout. Nutes will be adjusted to size of pot as well as water. Just letting her spread her wings and fly 🦅

Looks like buds are forming nicely, getting volume slowly. I have problem with some deficiency, i started adding calmag last week, and lowered the nutes, no changes for now yet, all old leaves look horrible, new ones have the tip burned and twisted up. Starting to smell more, its noticable in the house, buds are really sticky if you touch it. I am guessing around 4 weeks till finish, the 4th plant probably later, is about 2 weeks behind, but is the biggest. Buds are just stacked, interested to see if those are going to be all one big bud, it is easier to see it in the video i attached. Cheers!

Bonsais are being made😅😉 All good I have changed the soil so now they grow rapidly especially CBD Blue Shark. :) I had no choice realised that using the same soil over and over is mitake. Big one. Now it is okaz Purple Punches are in the 3rd week of flowering and Blue Shark is in veg i am not sure how long I will keep her like that. Fertilization continues with the mix above on Monday, Wednesday, Saturday. Day 39: I keep doing LST on CBD Blue Shark spreading her.

We are officially in full bloom. The have been enjoying 6-7 hours of sun light per day for about 4 days now, then brought back in under the cobs. The girls are all exploding with growth and stacking what I expect to be huge buds.

A shout out to my brother's at Spliff Seeds! Without the good genetics you don't have shit! Lol 😂 Dutch Blue Automatic is a very aggressive growing strain.

Do you see that SWAMPMONSTER in the corner of the tent there ?? The Queen towers above the canopy and the rest of the plants lol. It's really interesting from using the Smart Proteins, i think how they work is that the plant is able to process them and compensate any kind of slight deficiency which means that each plant that gets the proteins is able to grow to it's maximum potential and at the same time grow to its **individual** potential... that's why each of these plants has so much "character", because if you look closely it's less a question of phenotype but more like "individual expression".... INTERESTING !!! Anyway that's about the visual... my main concern about these is how loud they f-ing smell !!! ITS PROBLEMATIC, so be conscious of that if you plant to grow these one day ! REALLY REALLY LOUD, honestly there should be an additional category on GD like "problematic" which is beyond the "strong smell" category. I have two large carbon filters on two 1330m3/h fans and it's a problem. Hope you understand how unusual that is for a plant in veg lol... I think the smart protein probably affects how strong the plants smell because all the plants seem more smelly than expected... TBH i'll fix the smell issue but hopefully it's a good sign and an indicator of the quality i can expect by harvest time? These also got two rounds of defoliation , and i flipped them to flower like 4 days ago. This was an exciting veg to me, but now is when it gets interesting, let's see how beautiful these flowers are !! Test genetics always have that little bit of mystery to them right? By the way, I'm often visiting this site, so drop me a message about whatever, especially if you have advice ! Thanks for following along with me, i appreciate it really ! ITS FLOWER TIME FOLKS LETS SEE! 🚀

And here we are with another week just over... And most probably next week I will also chop her down!! In these week probably for the heat stress she got I started seeing some main buds foxtailing. We are in the 10/14 days of plain pHed water, but I'm considering cutting her before the full flush is complete, this cause I can also see some amber trichomes. For now that's all, but now more than ever stay tuned for the next week, which will be most likely the harvest week! Stay high peeps!!
