Started 8 seeds (friend’s hermed a deimos and got seeds and gave me) at a wet towell paper and moved to a basic garden soil that i had at home. Transfered 5 to 1.5Liter pots 50% peat moss 50% perlite with 0 EC and got stunted at the start for 1 and a half month and at week 14 transfered 3 of them at larger pots as described and kept one of the remaining 1.5Liter pot. Watering with just water until i flip to flower because of recent transfer to rich soil. one of the transplanted to bigger pots was stuck for 2 months and then turned out to become a "monster cropped" plant without aplying any techniques to achieve this condition, after stunt started growing in multiple directions. 07/16/2023 - flipped to 12/12 light. 07/17/2023 - fed with 0.5 ml/L biobizz bio-bloom / 0.5 ml/L biobizz top max / 0.5 ml/L biobizz bio-heaven - 225 PPM. lower than indicated dosage because organic soil still has some stored to spare. bigger one - 700 ml monster crop one - 500ml the other one - 700ml 07/18/2023 - sprayed neem oil after lights off as a pest preventive. 07/20/2023 - fed with biobizz line: 0,4 ml/L bio-grow 0,4 ml/L bio-bloom, 0,4 ml/L top max, 0,3ml/L bio-heaven and 0,4ml/L alg-a-mic. still lower dosage than indicated by biobizz because no signs of deficiency and soil seems to be full of nutes still. bigger one - 500ml monster crop - 300ml the other - 500ml 7/21/2023 - im sure i miscalculated number of plants x grow area and im having some space problems. As a try to fix this i removed a quite large number of leafs that was covering some bud spots.

|»» LOG DISCLAIMER: Not intended as a grow guide. Grow log entries are usually posted 3 weeks later and are for my learning reference. ««| Introduction - Week 13 Summary - Ensign's log, stardate 17529.7, Ooo yea! Summer is definitely here! Been a hot and humid week! But wow growth has been thriving and vibing in the garden! Feels like the tropics in the lung room, but the higher humidity seems to be perfect for vegging plants! By the end of the week, the canopy is almost full, so decided to flip to flower in 7 days! To prep for flower, slightly increased the VPD levels which are also helping to lower the humidity down a bit. Defoliated both ladies and been tucking and training the top growth. To preserve these genetics, started the cloning process and took cuttings. By the end of the week, the cuttings were transplanted into Coco Coins for rooting! Topped and defoliated all mother plants in the veg tent which lowered the canopy by a good 5-6 inches. But by the end of the week, the canopy is stretching upwards again and growth is looking beautiful! For this grow cycle, instead of a top dress, been researching about fungal dominant compost teas and plan to stew and brew up my first batch soon which will probably be in a week or so. Anyways, one more week until the big flip to flower! Let’s go! Onwards to next week Ensign!

Site is broken, can barely upload anything and it's sad because I'm really proud, of what we've achived here and i tought this may be the place to sahre it but it seems this palce is more for self promotions for brands and so on. regardless, with all the effort that it took to select pictures heres some of a PARTIAL harvest, i did not harvest the whole plant as the cannopy did not allow lower bud sites to have light and i mean, theres at least 700 grams more waiting from those 2 plants (and thatsd a low ball estimate), currently "only" harvested 672 grams from the top colas, and not all of them were chopped, left some of the auxiliary bud sites that the MASSIVE colas had, im honestly shoked at one of them that weighted on its own 145.4 grams, and still had 4 auxiliary bud sites that i decided to leave for them to rippen, alltogether pretty sure this cola wouldve been 250 g's with all the other bud sites that it developed. yesterday i decided to chop based on the fact that i felt nugs were moist and was afraid of them developing botrytis. none did and while im suspisicious on some of the nugs no definite answer as of right no nug shows it, but they were moist and better be safe than sorry, still would've given them another week if it was possible, but also i need GMO to rippen, so thats why i decided to do a stage chop, in one week will be chopping everything or maybe more, perhaps 2 weeks more, who knows now. one thing I know is that my house smells DANK, that it was 700 g's a partial harvest and that I still have more than half to chop and harvest, this will be plenty, im really happy with how they're turning out, ocne they dry I'll write here how they smoke and add some nug photos. THERES STILL WORK TO DO, THIS IS NOT OVER YET. and I'm all for it :)

~ AirCube Active Oxygen Ebb/Flow System sponsored by GrowAce, featuring Tropicana Cookies 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 the outstanding, award winning strain from my friends at FastBuds... Tropicana Cookies Auto: I'll be running Tropicana Cookies Autoflower which is a 60/40 Indica/Sativa Hybrid. "Tropicana Cookies Auto is the perfect variety for growers of all levels, especially beginners as this strain performs very well outdoors and indoors, and can produce up to 500 gr/m2 in 56-63 days without needing extra maintenance. Reaching up to 110 cm, this strain grows fairly tall with medium-sized branching, showing its mixed heritage. Definitely the right choice for those with a high tolerance looking to get their hands on the strongest autoflowers out there. You can expect an extremely powerful and long-lasting high that’ll boost your mood and give you that extra push you need to start your days on the right foot. This variety offers the whole range of citrus and woody flavors with a strong candy-sweet background that will keep you coming back for more and more."* *References: GrowAce.com, 2fast4buds.com ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: • AC Infinity 4x4 tent •AC Infinity Cloudline T6 Exhaust Fan w/ Controller 67 •HLG 650R w/UVA Bar *** For some reason GD does NOT have a listing for the USA version of the 650R so I selected the closest match to it. •AirCube Active Oxygen Ebb/Flow 6 pot System •DL Wholesale Root Royale Coco Lite 70/30 coco/perlite •TrolMaster Hydro-X Controller for light •AutoPilot APC8200 co2 controller fed by a 50# tank •16" Hurricane oscillating fan and 8" floor fan •Tent cooling via filtered outside air delivered by AC Infinity Cloudline T6 fan •BlueLab instruments: PH Pen and Truncheon Nutrient Meter ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 11/26- My oh my! Week 5 of flower's here and these ladies are looking sexy as hell!🔥🤪 11/28- All three Tropicana Cookies are getting to the point that it's time to begin flushing them. My dilemma is that, with six pots in the closed loop system and three of them occupied by a different strain that is 10+ days behind the Tropicana Cookies, I can't run straight water through the system to flush without negatively affecting the other strain that is right in the middle of flower. My solution that I've come up with is to pull the Tropicana Cookies from the AirCubes and put them on drip trays so that I can flush them without affecting the flowering of the three plants from the other strain. *Note to self: When starting a run with this system, MAKE SURE ALL six plants break ground together! Also growing a single strain would be way better than mixing strains with this system as you can only give one strength of nutrients regardless of what each particular plant needs for optimum growth. 11/30- Today was the LAST day that these ladies have to sit in the AirCubes. This evening, right after 'lights on', I pulled all three plants from the AirCubes and placed them on plastic drip trays that hold a little over 2L. When I pulled them the first thing I noticed (besides the odor) was the amount of roots that were growing outside of the fabric pot (I thought they were supposed to 'air prune' the roots) and the copious brown slime coating the inside of the bucket and the bottom of the fabric pot...smh. So, from here on out I'll be manually flushing all three with 2L each of straight well water that has a 150ppm base, to which I add 1/64th teaspoon of NPK Yucca Extract, then I ph it to 6.0 @ 68℉. After flushing, I wait around 15min, then I use a wet vac to remove the runoff from the drip tray. 12/2- I'm continuing to flush all three at an interval of 3 times daily with 2L of water and they all are doing fantastic! The #3 is starting to fade, and the pistils on both the #1 and #2 are turning color from snow white to a darker tan or red, and I anticipate their fade to begin sometime soon. Well Fam, there's five weeks of flower on the books and these ladies are just about ready to finish up! See you next week for what could be the finish for the FastBuds Tropicana Cookies! 😎🙏💖 💚 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!💚

Stopped feeding this week other than one watering with molasses. Needing to be watered every 3 days. Other waterings using ph'ed filtered water to 6.5 set on my air bubbler for a few hours before watering. She's very close to being ready. Another week and i think she will be perfect. Notice leaves fading end of last week and they have been getting more color throughout the week. Bud growth only happening closes to the light and much of orange hairs are white. Not a ton of amber trichomes yet which is good. Really liking how this plant is turning out. Nice loud terpene profile and fat dense frosty buds. Trimming should be pretty easy on this one which is a relief knowing how much work I have ahead of me. I think this very could be the fast version.

First week under my new DIY led panel. Had to move the fan above the led because the light was too far away from the plants. That's why the humidity has risen a bit, but I guess it's still okay. ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ ▌My setup: ▌Growbox: Secret Jardin Hydro Shoot 80 ▌Lights: Selfmade 184W LED Panel w/ Samsung Q-Series Strips ▌Ventilation: Ventilution Mixed In-Line 145/187m³/h ▌Fan: Taifun FT-18 oscillating fan ▌Heating fan: Trotec TFC 1 E ▌Substrate: 50% BioBizz All-Mix & 50% Perlite (& BioTabs Starterbox) ▌Nutrients: BioTabs Starterbox & tapwater ▌Irrigation: AutoPot 4Pot System ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄

This week i only gave them 2 feedings, one only water and one with Enzym+ because last week I gave them lots of nutrients. I did that because they asked for it and could take it but in the other hand it was really hot so alot of feeding got evaporated which can result in a salty/old nutes medium. So with that in mind i let the enzymen do their work(cleaning and re-using nutrients) while making sure that i lower the EC in my pots down again because right now the weather this week is like 20-23 degrees with alot of rain, because of that, the plants don't drink up/evaporate that fast as they do when its hotter. Meaning i can't give as much water as they used to, so the EC in the pots will stay higher. A high EC is not a smart thing to have, plants will get a higher change of shutdowns, can even get diffiencies because of that. And the last thing a grower wants to have is heavy pots for lots of days LOL. ps, I should consider making 2 different buckets of feeding because my criticalkushes are still not showing signs of preflowering. To be honnest i'm not completely happy about the critical kush strain because the breeder promised a 100% Indica strain, which in my opinion is not. It is just another hybrid and a really slow one. pss, I will lower my EC in the comming weeks because I want my buds to get bigger and in later stages I will raise my EC again to make them compact,smelly,tasty,frosty, With high EC, you get compact,smelly,frosty,tasty but small buds, with low ec you get big but fluffy ones and not that frosty. This doesn't count for Autoflowers since they need way less ec... I did this many times with inside grows, we will see how it goes outside with these two strains.
