Beginning of week.. Mandarin Cookies seems to be a little ahead.. I've been watering till runoff every 2 days.. Seems like I could even go 3 days in between with better results.. More oxygen to the roots.. And I just read on GWE website that overwatering can cause seedling leaves to be kinda.. Wavy 🌊 ... I always just shrugged it off.. But I would also get algae on the top of the medium.. Always just shrugged it off.. So wtf.. How do people use frequent fergigation?!?.. 6 times a day?!? That's insane.. Maybe in like 20% coco 80% perlite or some shit.. That's just crazy to me tho.. This run, I'm gonna do the best I can to make everything as perfect as possible.. I have been testing the runoff.. I water till I get alot of runoff too.. Like 1L of runoff.. So when I test it, The TDS is coming out great.. Just where I need them to be.. Infact they are both hovering about 20 PPM from eachother.. Awesome.. But the pH has been going in a 6.3.. But coming out at 6.0 and 5.9.. This is reused coco.. Mixed in with some coco/perlite I premixed a few month before.. But never been used.. So my goal is to get the runoff pH the same as it goes in.. Sometimes I have to run water at 6.5 pH just to get it to bump up a little.. So I may have to do that. It's still in a good range for the ladies.. And it should help bring the pH inside the medium up as well.. And hopfully STAY where I need it at.. But as for now.. I am cutting out the Floralicious Plus.. The MYCO+ has all the same shit.. So I am going to use the MYCO+ for veg and Floralicious Plus in flower.. Makes better sense to me.. But yeah.. These girls already have a different branch and leaf structure that Ive been seeing lately.. They are beautiful! Lol.. Oh yeah.. And I have also lowered the light down to 26" from the ladies.. Keeping it at 25% power.. They weren't stretching too much as far as I could tell.. I'm wanting them to grow into the light about 18" - 20" still keeping the power at 25%.. See how that works out.. I'm trying to avoid using 50% power until flower for now.. To help keep the heat down.. This light doesn't get very hot.. But the warmth it does give off and the size of it does kinda help the tent stay a little warmer than my smaller lights did in my 2x2 tent.. It was eaiser to control the heat I guess.. Plus I could probably upgrade to a 6 inch exhaust fan while running a carbon filter.. But I am very excited to see what these girls do! Mid week.. Runoff pH is still a little fucked off. This morning I ran water pH'd to 6.5 and the Mandarin Cookies runoff came out a 6.3.. But the ETHOS Cookies runoff came out at 5.8 still.. What the eff.. The TDS is good.. Going in and coming out.. Not sure wtf to do at this point.. Maybe just keep doing what I been doing.. But the growth on these girls is insane.. I cant wait till next week when the growth explosions happen! They are both already spitting out some nice, promising branches. I got a cheap PAR meter coming in tomorrow.. I hope it works as well as the $500 meters.. But these plants are looking good... for now.. Almost end of week... My PAR meter came in!! Hells yeah! So my light gets about 200 - 250 PPFD at 20 inches on 25% power.. This should be perfect for now.. As for the pH issue.. Ugh.. I'm gonna just have to run some 7.0 thru the medium or something.. So frustrating.. The Mandarin Cookies is showing some slight pH fluctuation spots on the lowest leaves.. I also removed the first set of leaves and branches.. They were just waaay too tiny.. Now she doesn't have to waste energy on them.. As for the ETHOS Cookies.. She's showing alot less pH issues on her leaves.. Some.. But kinda hard to notice.. This is really frustrating.. May ask a question for this grow... End of week.. The Mandarin Cookies seems to be getting the wavy shit.. Ugh.. Just the very bottom leaves.. But they are also beginning to yellow in spots.. I think I need to up the nutes a bit.. They are already beginning their growth explosion! I love this part.. Everyday you can notice alot of growth.. And eventually, you can sprout 1 set of leaves a day! The branches are sprouting out quite a bit as well!.. Its hard to not water every day, but every 3 days.. I'm gonna have to go to watering every other day, I guess.. I can already see roots coming out the bottom of the pots.. Wow.. I may use some Hydroguard for a few weeks.. Just to help the roots even more.. The ones I see coming out the bottom of their pot are already MASSIVE and WHITER than white!!! I think this MYCO+ stuff really does some magical things with these roots! I just watched a detailed video on how myco (not even gonna try to spell it) spouts its own root.. Which finds the nearest plant root and basically takes root inside the plant root.. Which then spouts out its own root system and is able to get nutrients over 700% or 700× better than without mycorhizae.. Crazy.. And it even works in hydroponics.. Somehow.. Idk how.. Cuz I would think you wash away the myco with each water change.. Maybe not.. Again.. Idk.. But yeah.. Crazy shit.. Anyways.. Gonna bump up the nutes a bit and water every other day (water, feed, water, feed, etc.)... On to the next!...

Looking good few more day and i willl clean her up ,some defoliation been performed too

…

I noticed that the whole right side of the tent had basically collapsed, so harvest was upon us. Using hedge clippers I cut away large chunks of the plant: THis thing is huge. Put some celophane over the cut ends and taped them, had to load them into the tent for drying at a couple of different levels so that it is stacked. Will update once I have dried and cured.

What you guys think of my 1st attempt off growing I've learnt a hell off a lot from this grow it wasn't as easy as it looks I give my plants a lot off attention some times I think a little bit to much but this was all a learning curve very excited to havest her and continue with my other projects... The next one will be a lot more detailed and hoping for a lot better results.. Put what I've learnt to the test... Thanks guys for all your help

She was a very nice plant to grow , didn't have too much difficulties with her... She grew on some very nice thick form buds. And she didn't grew too tall which I personally really like.

The First is Girl Scout Cookies. The 2 others Do Si Dos #33 Last but not least Pineapple Chunk with a massiv Bud.

7/18/25 chopped and hung. Will update with more pictures and videos and dry weight in 5-7 days Check out my YouTube channel for more behind the scenes that aren't on here. https://youtube.com/@aestheticgenetix?si=sKoIKf9kAmFlIWQo

- Switch from a MH Bulb to an HPS Bulb - Discover "Fimming" a form of LST were you bend the stem to maintain its height. Not ideal for autos but seemed to work based on a small sample size. - First week were I trimmed leaves from the plant. From research I found that most people suggest not to trim the autos as they have less time to recover. I found that if you have very healthy plants it can be done but to a point - Had some brown spots forming on the leaves. From what I could figure out it is called Leaf Septoria and is caused by to much humidity and not enough air circulation. Trimmed all leaves with brown spots which was only a few - Last feeding for the big 3 at 1/4 strength

Die Woche ist wie im Flug vergangen – und leider habe ich es verpasst, Fotos zu machen 📸. Aber keine Sorge! Ab jetzt gibt’s täglich ein Update, damit man den Fortschritt der Blütephase in voller Pracht verfolgen kann 🌱💥. Ich bin gespannt, wie sich die Ladys entwickeln, und freue mich darauf, euch alles zu zeigen! 🚀 The week just flew by – I missed my chance to take photos 📸. But don’t worry! From now on, I’ll be posting daily updates so you can watch the flowering progress in all its glory 🌱💥. Excited to see how the ladies grow and can’t wait to share it all with you! 🚀

Hola a todos!! Esta semana he regado solo con agua, viene lenta en su crecimiento, pero tiene buena pinta,😃💪. Tal vez la próxima semana haga un transplante💪

In woche 5 in flow is mir ein kleines missgeschick passiert. Habe leider einen spritzer pk 5-8 zu meinem gießwasser dazu gegeben. Ec werte und ph waren perfekt. Nur habe ich einen eisen oder magnesium überschuss verursacht. Pflanzen wurden ectrem dunkel und die neuen kleinen blätter in den buds haben sich nach unten gegreuselt. Aber gefahr erkannt gefahr geband. Habe heute das aller erstemal pk13-14 zum bio gießwasser dazu gegeben. Ec usw.. perfekt. Bin aber gespannt was ich diesesmal weedr falsch gemacht habe.👌😋😁😅😅🙈 Die saubersten und vitalsten stecklinge findet ihr wie immer bei ROOTS-FARMS. The best in austria and maybe europe

Bubble fucking gum terps are real?!

---------------------------------------------- ~Sweet Seeds Sweet Zenzation (SWS84)~ ---------------------------------------------- Zkittlez is one of the most famous and potent strains found on the west coast of the USA. Sweet Zenzation (SWS84) derives from a cross between an elite clone of Zkittlez combined with a specially selected Grape Ape clone, which is one of the strains used to develop the original Zkittlez. The result is a predominantly Indica genetic hybrid. It produces a large amount of resin-soaked flowers. It is both relaxing and stress-relieving, yet it also stimulates the imagination and conversation, an effect that is normally associated with sativa strains. The flowers have a high terpene content, an exquisite aroma and sweet taste, with hints of fruit-flavored candies, hardwood undertones, shades of lemon, cypress and subtle aromatic peppers. Variety: Sweet Zenzation (SWS84) Indica: 70% Sativa: 30% THC: 16-23% CBD: 0.2% Indoor Yield: 450-650 g/m² Outdoor Yield: 400-700 g/plant Effects: Creativity, Stimulating, Happiness, Relaxing Taste: Spicy, Fruity, Citrus, Lemon, Candy, Cypress, Sweet ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ THE SETUP: ~Planted into Jiffy Peat Pellets that were hydrated with de-chlorinated water with SuperThrive added then ph'd to 6.0 @ 80℉ ~Grown 100% organic in 10g fabric pots with Mother Earth 70/30 Coco/Perlite medium amended with 2tbs/g of Down To Earth 4-4-4 / 2 cups/g of Earthworm Castings / 1tbs/g of Dr. Earth Flower Girl 3-9-4, 1tbs/g of Dr. Earth Bat Guano, 3/4 cup of Down To Earth Azomite and 1 tsp/g Down To Earth Fish Bone Meal. ~24hr light cycle during Germination / 19/5 light cycle for Vegetation and 12/12 for Flower ~Straight water ph'd @ 6.2-6.8 when needed and weekly Compost Tea's. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 10/11- Week Nine! Here we go on our way to sticking a fork in this run! Her fade is in full swing and she's putting out trichomes like crazy! By the end of this week she'll be hanging after she spends a couple of nights in the dark. I watered today using straight water that's ph'd to 6.5-6.7 @ 72℉. I gave her a little over 1.5g to keep her flush going and then turned her pot. Trichome status: 70% milky / 30% clear 10/13- I watered today with 1.5g of straight water that was ph'd to 6.5-6.7 @ 72℉ and gave her pot a turn. Her trichomes are almost where I like them and more than likely she'll be going in the dark by the weekend! What a beautiful cultivar she is! 🤩💚 10/15- My routine of watering every other day continues. Yesterday I watered her with her usual 1.5g of straight de-chlorinated water that was ph'd to 6.5-6.7 @ 72℉ and gave her pot a turn. Today was just spent checking her over, turning her pot and doing a quick check of her trichomes which are close, but not quite ripe enough yet! 10/17- Wow!... Nine weeks of flower DONE! 😎👍 Now my sights are set on getting this girl finished up and on her way to 48 hours in the dark before she's hung to begin drying. I went ahead and watered her with her usual 1.5g of straight de-chlorinated water that was ph'd to 6.7 @ 72℉ and checked her trichomes, which are looking just about right! This journey is coming to a close in the next couple of weeks with her harvest, drying and trimming up. I so appreciate you following along with me , it's been a blast sharing with you all! 😎🙏 ~Thanks so much for checking out my diary! This epic run is in the home stretch with harvest fast approaching...Stay lifted and be Blessed! 😎🙏~

Que pasa familia, ya estamos de vuelta y empezamos la primera semana de floración, ya cambiamos el ciclo a 12/12 , y ya marco su sexo, es hembra. Pues seguimos controlando ph, lo bajamos un poco a 6,2 a ver si chupan mejor los nutrientes, temperatura y humedad controlados, siempre dentro de los parámetros correctos, hemos bajado un poco la distancia del foco, ahora en floración lo agradecerán. Así que esto es todo, ya veis que va bien tiene buen color y no hay problema ninguno, nos vemos la semana que viene fumetillas.

Not much to report really, everything is in order and on track✅ The tallest plant has grown 16cm end of week 2 so 1 last week of potential stretch at that rate or hopefully less and it should all remain manageable 🤞 Facing some heat issues but it doesn't seem to be stressing my ladies they are loving life right now 🌞 Its been 25celcius here last few days and that translated to 28celcius in the tent🌡️ Gonna steal a few leaves here and there this week but nothing major, I'm happy enough with the canopy and its bud-sites 👌 Buds are developing nicely, hopefully I'll still get some dense nugs even though they are only wearing 6L shoes 👠 In the end though my main goal is clean and tasty smoke and ive been getting some nice fruity smells from the stem rub, especially the Zorro x Zkittlez #1 I'm getting a lot of lemon and lime from her 🍋🍇⛽ As for clean that's on me, in the great debate of flushing I'm all for it. I get that true organics is a different story but in coco which is what I'm using I notice the difference 🥥 I use bottled nutes which aim to be as close to organic as you can get in a bottle, Cellmax Bio always give me nice flavour and I'm just testing Buddha's Tree Organicus now alongside Cellmax Additives but I still always flush 🌊 Well that's all folks 🐰 Thanks for tuning in🙏 One Love💚 Fire Farmer🔥👨‍🌾

Smooth sailing on this batch deep into flower! Were sitting at 77 days today and they are looking fantastic! Steady feeding flora bloom and flora micro. Also giving them 5ml/gal of advanced big bud. These ladies are FROSTY! Cannot wait till these ladies wrap it up! These cheese are STINKY. Nice small, compact stature but they look fantastic. I have 5 of these girls going and I forsee around 1.75 ounces per plant. Solid little grow.

June 21: interesting how the tie down leads to the lower growth tips growing much faster. This is likely a reliable way to improve yield without stressing the plant very much. The response of this plant to the tie down is a bit of a revelation. I didn’t think these plants would do much with the cold weather start and potentially bad soil, but in the last month they’ve done great. Now using tie down method on some other autos where it looks equally impressive. Influenced by @Roberts and his auto tie downs using 12 gauge wire. Didn’t think this diary would be a contender for best outdoor grow, but now I think I better start posting weekly videos.
