~ AirCube Active Oxygen Ebb/Flow System sponsored by GrowAce, featuring Strawberry Gorilla Auto by FastBuds ~ Well guy's and gal's here we go again on another exciting Autoflower run together! This time will be different as I will be doing a 'Hydroponic' run utilizing the AirCube Active Oxygen Ebb/Flow System by GrowAce, who were kind enough to sponsor me for this run, so it should be interesting to see what results I get and have some fun along the way! •Let me first tell you about this 6 Pot Ebb/Flow system from GrowAce: "The AirCube system is the one and only Ebb & Flow grow system on the market that combines the benefits of air pruning with a fully automated Ebb+Flow system! With the AirCube's proprietary fabric pot in bucket design, this system is guaranteed to outgrow any other Ebb + Flow system on the market. The results speak for themselves- grow MASSIVE roots that result in MASSIVE fruits! Air Pruning- Air Pruning only happens with fabric pots. As the roots reach the fabric walls of the pot, they penetrate and grow into the breathable fabric. Once penetrated, the roots are exposed to air, which causes the tips of the root to dehydrate and naturally prune themselves. This natural pruning process forces the roots to grow tons of lateral fibrous feeder roots. This results in a plant that utilizes the entire root zone and fills the entire pot with tons of roots. These fibrous feeder roots are incredibly effective in uptaking water and nutrients, resulting in a plant that grows healthier and more vigorously! Oxygen Benefits- Without oxygen, nutrient absorption cannot occur. On a molecular level, oxygen is needed to transmit nutrients across the cell walls and into the roots of a plant. With the AirCube's proprietary bottom lifted draining design, the system actively draws all of the water out of the bucket pulls vital oxygen into the root zone. Maximum Versatility with Any Grow Medium: The AirCube System is the only system on the market that allows you to use any growing medium you like. Use coco coir, soil, peat moss, perlite, vermiculite, hydroton, rockwool or any other medium you wish! This system is the most versatile Ebb and Flow bucket system in today's hydroponics industry. Temperature Control- with the fabric pots constructed with highly porous polypropylene fabric, heat dissipates easily and effectively. Unlike standard plastic pots, heat isn't trapped in the root zone. Heat in standard plastic containers can reach temperatures of up to 125 degrees. When this type of heat is trapped and unable to escape, it can damage your plant's health and limit the potential of your harvest. Growing in the AirCube System, plant roots grow cooler, healthier, and more vigorous. Largest Pots in its Class- this system features 5 Gallon grow buckets, the largest pot size of any other ebb and flow hydroponic system in the market. Modular and Expandable- start with 6 grow buckets and expand up to 36 grow buckets with the optional 105 gallons PopTank reservoir!" For my medium and nutrients I decided to also switch things up from my regular Organic runs, going with Plagron Nutrients and Root Royale 70/30 Coco/Perlite. When filling the fabric pots with medium, I first added just under a gallon of horticulture perlite from Nor-Cal as a base layer to ensure good drainage and then filled the remainder with the Root Royale. •Now for one of my favorites, and award winning strain from my friends at FastBuds... Strawberry Gorilla Auto: I'll be running Strawberry Gorilla Autoflower which is a 55/45 Sativa/Indica Hybrid. "ATTENTION ALL! Due to our continuous efforts in evolving our breeding process, we are proud to confirm that our Strawberry Gorilla Auto has now become one of the most potent autoflowers in the world! Paving the way to our recent success where she ranked on top & brought home the gold at the very first American Autoflower Cup in California. Moreover, she proved that not only modern autoflowers can compete with photoperiods, but they can even beat them in their field. At the most recent edition of the Farmer’s Cup and competing against various photoperiodic strains, Strawberry Gorilla Auto took home the title of 'Highest Combined Terpenes' in the highly sought-after 'Home Grow Hash' category, with an impressive 97.163 mg/g total terpene content! Our exceptional genetic selection's crowning Strawberry Gorilla Auto strain is a spectacular hybrid known for producing yields of up to 600 gr/m2 in 70 days. This is a very manageable grow that can reach heights of up to 150 cm - due to its magnitude we recommend it for more experienced growers, as a huge plant may be a little overwhelming for first-timers. This show stopping sativa heavy hybrid is perfect as an all day smoke, producing a taste bud tingling, pungent berry and diesel terpene-rich flavor combo that leaves you with a grin from ear to ear, a perfect choice for those looking for a day-and-night autoflower!

Today, I started off this week with a drain/clean of the AirCube reservoir, after which I filled it with 80L of well water and added in the Plagron Nutrients (Green Sensation first, then 'A' & 'B' base nutrients, finally the Royal Rush). After the nutrients were added and the EC checked ( it's 2.0), I ph'd the solution to 5.7 @ 68℉. 12/22- I'm continuing with six feeds per day @ 900+/-ppm's, the HLG 650R is at 100% power 28" above canopy and they are getting 4 hours of additional UV during the middle of the light cycle. Tent temp's are running 68-75℉ at a RH of 40-45% and co2 levels are running 650-900ppm. 12/24- The #1 and #2 plants continue to be the better looking of the bunch, with the #2 being the 'one'. The #3 plant continues her struggle but has a generous coating of trichomes covering her flowers! 12/25- ~🎄MERRY CHRISTMAS!🎄~ 12/26- Seven weeks of flower and only a couple more to go! I'll be starting to flush these ladies in the coming week and they should all be beginning to fade soon! Hope to see you next week! Growers Love!💚 💚 Thank you for checking out my passion in life! Please visit as often as you wish and I hope you enjoy this journey as much as I know I will! Grow what you love, Love what you grow!💚

Nothing much happened but she's looking good.

Future loved her first week of 12-12 happy healthy stretch is evident with some nice growth , gonna get in my delorian and smoke some fruit 2 months in the fut

Seems to be going alright, not much sunlight in the woods however

This week I was mostly smoking Panama Red. Hit a wee bump as it seems I never learn my lesson by bringing outside plants inside, some sap-sucking greenfly aphids decided my grow tent was a perfect new home. The thing about trying to recreate a "perfect" environment for growth, it can also be perfect for a host of unwanted problems. All the holes I've cut into the tent don't help I'd guess either. The 5 species of Clover is far more dense a cover crop than I'd imagined it would be. The chaplain overdone his blessings it seems. The blue borage companion plant was the first to be suckled on by unwanted visitors, I'd say 90+% of the aphids I found were eating on the underside of the borage leafs. I gave her a good bath and thorough scrub with some soap, just need to give her time to bounce back. If I can't beat them, I'll join them. Only I'll be the one who decides what predators lurk under the canopy! This will need time and research. Back to it I guess. Word, Phonetically, the term world sounds similar to the term whirled, which is the past tense of the term whirl, meaning “to turn around, spin, or rotate rapidly”. Before you were born, you were whirled into existence due to the fact that your physical body is made of atoms. What do atoms do? They spin and rotate very rapidly. The term world also sounds similar to the term word and the term word sounds like the term whir. One of the origins of the term whir is the Old Norse word hvirfla, meaning “to turn”. In English, the term whir is defined as “to go, fly, revolve, or otherwise move quickly with a humming or buzzing sound”. The definitions of the words in bold font in the previous two paragraphs are all related to the word spin. Why the word spin? Because everything in the Universe spins and we live in a galaxy that spins. The world/whirled known as Earth also spins on its axis and the people living on it use spoken words/whirred’s to create their reality.

Finally at the end of another grow, unfortunately it's the worst grow I've done!!! My heart just wasn't in this grow! It started out well until the flowering stage. Which was right around Christmas, super busy with other things, not maintaining them every day. Leaving them days at a time 4 to5 days before checking ph & ec! So they were constantly rising to high levels, went away a few days & had a watering line come loose flooding the tent & draining the reservoir so they had no water or nutrients for days. Pure laziness!

Endspurt! Letzte Woche hat begonnen. Bin sehr zufrieden wie sich alles entwickelt hat, nur leider hab ich an der seifuku 4-5 seeds gefunden ich hoffe das es nur eine teilweise Bestäubung war und nicht alles voll mit seeds ist

Hola a todos! Esta semana he regado solo con top candy 2ml x litro de agua. Esta misma semana que comienza mañana, empezare a lavar raices, la planta tiene un aroma dulce, que aun no sé describir😅. Muchos tricomas están lechoso aunque hay algunos transparentes, pero la idea es hacer un lavado de raices progresivo. En 2 o 3 veces.

Ci siamo

Am Freitag habe ich zuletzt 10 ml Bio-P-K gegeben. Dann ist es passiert: Ich habe die Pflanzen übergossen. Glücklicherweise habe ich gute Stofftöpfe, sodass es kein größeres Problem war. Am nächsten Tag schaute ich in die Growbox und konnte meinen Augen kaum trauen – die oberen Blätter waren welk und braun. Das war enttäuschend. Ich begann sofort mit Nachforschungen: drei Stunden lang verglich ich Bilder, las Blogs und versuchte, die Ursache herauszufinden. Ich muss gestehen, ich hatte schon geahnt, dass so etwas passieren könnte, denn der Abstand meiner Lampe betrug nur noch 2 bis 10 cm. Verzweifelt habe ich die Lampe mit Paracord um weitere 7 cm höher gehängt – mehr ging wirklich nicht wegen der Zeltdecke. Ich denke, dass es drei Ursachen für die Probleme gab: Lichtbrand, Hitzestress (da die Lampe nur 3 cm entfernt war und ich Temperaturen von 34-37 Grad gemessen habe) und außerdem die Überwässerung. Fazit: Hängt die Lampe immer weit genug weg und gießt die Pflanzen nicht zu viel!

Esta semana empiezo con la poda de bajos, y a clonar esos bajos para guardar genética y quedarme la mejor planta del cultivo. en unos días empieza la floración. un saludo compañeros

The Banana Purple Punch is looking fantastic as it enters its 7th week of flowering! After checking the trichomes, it’s clear this plant needed a bit more time to mature compared to others, but the wait has been worth it.🌱 This week, I’ve started flushing to prepare for harvest. If all goes as planned, it’ll be ready to cut and hang by the week after next. The buds are looking dense and frosty, and I’m excited to see the final result!😊 So far, everything is progressing beautifully, and I’m really happy with how this plant is finishing up.

09.03.21 die Ladys machen sich gut und erholen sich schnell von dem ganzen entlauben. Mal schauen was diese Woche noch so mit sich bringt bald geht es in die blüte (so ca 2 Wochen noch). Bin Echt froh das ich bis jetzt noch keine gravierenden Fehler gemacht habe zumindest habe ich noch keine bemerkt bis auf den bei der keimung war nix besonderes los bin echt zufrieden mit der Genetik von Growers choice danke schon mal an euch

Over all this was really fun to grow ! I had a good time and I learned a lot from growing this strain . The yield was pretty good got a wet weight of 412 grams ( no stems mostly just solid buds ) they smell faaaaaaannnnnnntaaaaassstic Im going to let them cure for a good bit then put in my dry weight .
