Day 21: . Wow these girls can grow fast. Having spent decades growing photoperiod strains and with only 1 Autoflower grow previously , I am astounded by the rate at which they grow daily. Watching the fan leaves gain so much size each day and the stems thickening alongside them shows their ability to rapidly cycle through their stages. The Gorilla girls are doing so well and even the mutant#4 is starting to settlenin and gain a nice colour to her. I do think the up pot has affected her height and development initially but hope she will catch up now. I have started to train the #2 GG with a 90° bend to her 5th node. I plan to keep them bent over like this until the lower nodes catch up and begin to develop as mains too. This is to avoid any topping at all as I want to see if this is a viable option with my room size. I used the forefinger and thumb method to gently crush the stem by rolling with slight pressure until I felt it soften enough to apply the bend but not too damaged to slow the growth to any note. Seeing how so many autos have a huge main stem that seems to form the upper part of the good yields from them , I thought I could keep it around but held down to still break the apical dominance. fingers crossed. The Sweet cheese is getting herself set for a burst of growth too I think. she is a few days behind the others but looks happy enough. I am hoping to get to week 5 before they hit their flowering run to gain enough size to fill my space used and seeing their rapid speed , they just might do that. Until next time Growmies , be safe and well.

Day 65, 14th of November 2020: Amazing week.... RQS Wedding Gelato does not strech a lot and pistils coming out nicely.... Original Sensible Seeds has amazing gentics they are so strechy except Black Ghost OG, rest of them crazyyyyyyy..... I also broke two of the sides from Gelato Original Sensible Seeds but fixed with tape and now all good lol 🤣🤣🤣 Pre flowers out and I really hope they stop growing lol. I also noticed that the Original Sensible Seeds strains have nice purple colours of the fan leave's stem. All the same fertilization happens every 2nd day with the mix above and ratio. One more thing: I set the lamp 15 minutes shorter to switch off earlier so they receive 11:45 of darkness. I would like to imitate the nature when longer nights come with time till the 4th week (when they will receive 13 hours darkness a day 15 minutes minus 4 times = 1hour) so every week 15 min longer darkness for 4 weeks and then back to 12/12 to have bigger buds from the 4th week....

I was able to move my light up an additional 5-6 inches I think i am going to need for the stretch during flower. The ladies are 30 inches tall before tucking under screen at 27 inches from the coco. switched feed from veg to bud after a clean RO water only feed a few days prior to switching from 18/6 to 12/12 light cycle. One side of the tent (V on left) smells like spicey lemon and herbs. The other side (blue nemo on right) smells like blueberry and skunky berries. I love how it hits my nose when I open the tent now, and really notice the scent notes changing as I pan over the canopy to take a video.

How To Make and Use Organic Super Soil Seedsman Seeds Peyote Wifi Harvest Well here we are at the conclusion to many months of planning and preparation plus another 23 weeks of Growing. I Did a lot of reading and researching super soils and how they are made before I decided to actually make some . Then I thought to myself I should document the whole process from start to finish in diary form. This way any other growers who are interested can have a basic idea of where to start. and the likely conditions they may face. All of this began way back in August of 2019 when I first mixed the super soil mix (which can be found by looking at week one) aproximately Three months after that I started this grow and 23 weeks later Here we are at the end. Along the way I described the methods I was using to keep the soil fully active and productive at all times. Plus also some of my pre planning tips for flowering time. For example in week four.... I innoculated with the Mycorrhizal kit as instructed on the packaging next week I'll give the soil some help by feeding some seaweed solution mixed with mollasses and worm castings. This will provide a boost for both the plant via the roots and also benefit the millions of tiny microbes that live within the soil. Simply mixing and using the super soil as is will still work fine however by keeping the soil in perfect health as well as the Plant itself will pay dividends come harvest time. Week Six.... It can pay to plan ahead now for when the plant gets bigger and will need support. With this in mind I am going to use a premade wire Tomato type cage that is 1.5m high. This will hopefully provide enough support for the plants frame when it goes into Flower Next year. Planning ahead can sometimes help prevent potential issues from effecting your grow. Some things to think about and plan ahead for are as I mentioned Plant stability and support when it gets bigger. Week nine..... Planning ahead still I decided to dig a big hole aprox 1.5 meters by 80cm and to a depth of about 4 foot . Took a few hours of digging and shovelling but the end result with the plant lowered down into it makes it worth my effort and Back pain that will follow 😏 By doing this I have created a much cooler Root zone by having the pot well below surface level But Ive also knocked 4 feet off the overall plants profile which will aid me in my other concerns being Security. Week thirteen.... Diamotaceous Earth acts as a bug deterrent and can't hurt the plant in any way. I also mix some into the worm tea that I feed straight to the soil as Diatomaceous Earth is a fantastic source of Silica which we all know is extremely beneficial to your Plants Health. As Far as my super soil is concerned , so far I have not needed to feed the plants any fertilisers as the soil is providing everything the plant needs. All ive been adding is biodynamic food for the soil itself to keep everything under the surface happy and well nourished. Once flowering begins next month I will need to add an organic Booster to the soil that will replace any depleted resources. ***** But not everything went smoothly in fact I did the most damage to the plant in Week 17 I decided to be stupid and spray all my girls with potassium bicarbonate thinking it would "mold proof" my plants WRONG all did was burn the absolute shit out of the leaves. From then on it was a constant struggle to get this girl to produce anything because along with the foliar burning I also had to contend with next to no sunshine for many days at a time plus the constant leaf dropping no doubt reduced my potential yield. ****** Not everything was Doom and gloom either in fact by Week twenty one.... The Quality however is definately showing itself, with every single bud covered in visible frosty looking trichomes. The smell is really really Funky with undertones of spices. So even tho I'll probably only get around half of what I was hoping for ,the bud that I do get will be straight up fire. 👌 In the Final week before I chopped .... The Buds although very delicate and light, look very Frosty and Delectable. As for the super soil it is absolutely chock full of nutritional value so I will use it to Grow a fine crop of Broad beans this coming Winter. The growing of Legumes in the soil will actually benefit the soils health in many ways including making the nitrogen within the soil more readily available. **** On the 18th of March 2020 I chopped her down and hung the plant upside down in the greenhouse overnight. Next day I removed all the buds and stripped them off the branches. The buds then went into a hanging drying rack until adequately Dried for the trimming. After the first trim the buds went into paper bags for more drying time (aprox 3-5 days depending on temp rh weather etc) They then got a bit more of a trim and went into the Jars for Curing. I have had quite a few bongs of this already and I must say it is Really good hey!! So in Conclusion I hope that this Diary may help somebody who may be interested in growing organically with soil outdoors or indoors as well as provide an insight into how the use of all natural ingrediants can produce Good buds. Whilst this particular plant didn't get Big buds the Quality was outstanding and you only need to check out some of the other plants I have growing in the same soil mix as to the validity of of its Fertility. Now we come to the End of this Grow I'd like to thank a few growers who offered advice and/or support along the way @ROM101 @Med_in_Tropic @F4m0u5 @Shooey @MagicMan @Spinnnn Thanks guys I appreciate it Also thankyou you for reading this Diary and please leave a like at the end if you liked it Cheers Grey_Wolf Post harvest notes ; its now the 1st of May and the Broad beans and Peas that I planted in the super soil are doing very nicely this will not only provide me and my family quality organic food for our table but also the growing of legumes helps fix nitrogen to the soil and keeps it living and healthy for the next time I need it for canna 👍💪 Best way to be folks self sustainable and recycling your soil mixes will help reduce our footprint on the planet and save us money too 👍 So what are you waiting for Grab some basic organic ingrediants and make yourself some Organic super soil 👍👌 ##### Final update for this diary 31st May 2020 It's been just over 2 months since I harvested this Peyote Wifi plant and the buds have been curing for that time . Today I chose a bud to test and I am blown away by the perplexity of the high and taste profile , Bloody amazing 👍####### Thats it folks All over now after 3 months of making the soil then another 24 weeks of growing the plant and then another 2 months of curing to get to here 31st May 2020 It was a great fun grow and I hope I have inspired some of you to try making your own batch of Organic super soil 👍

Felt like growing was slow going this week. I know they’re only 7 days from breaking ground so they’re establishing their roots but there was two days I felt like they didn’t grow at all. I germinated two more seeds, was going to have a total of 5 in my 4x4 but I somehow managed to kill both my master kush seeds despite having a beautiful tap root when I planted them into the soil. (Any advice/methods for getting seedlings going from germination to 🌱 is welcome and appreciated) My two Gorilla Breath plants struggled for the last 3 days of this week and went pretty yellow, which I presumed was a lack of nutrients since they’re only in solo cups right now with Fox Farm soil. They most likely used up all those nutrients and thus began showing signs of nutrient deficiency. I plan to make the next transplant into pro mix with added perlite so I have Advanced Nutrients Micro, Grow, Bloom on standby with RO water for that process. I ended up giving the two gorilla breath a 1/3 dose of micro, grow, bloom in 1L of water for one of their feedings to attempt to get some color back. It seemed to start working as you can see on the pictures. I was into my local hydro store today to buy some perlite to add to my pro mix next week and the guy talked me into some foliar spray (see attached image) to address the nutrient deficiency. I sprayed it on the leaves right before lights out on day 7 (February 6th) Hopefully that helps them out. Time will tell. I also struggled with humidity this week, ended up using a wet towel temporarily to keep humidity levels around 50% but I ended up ordering a humidifier on amazon and got that set up today. Super happy with the results from that 😁 Stay blessed and happy growing!

Saw spidermites setting up camp on the dark side of the plant on 1 bud site. There was no sign of them anywhere else. This plant is becoming more trouble than it’s worth and I’ve decided to chop her early after.

Diese Woche wurden die Pflanzen umgetopft, leider ist eine der 2x Purple Punch kaputt gegangen aufgrund der Genetik, und ganz plötzlich ist auch eine der 3x Runtz umgeknickt, wahrscheinlich durch die zu großen Temperaturschwankungen von Tag/Nacht. Die Banana zweigt leichte weisse Färbung auf den Blättern und die unterren ersten zwei Richtigen Blätter sind leicht verfärbt ( gelblich) . Ausserdem wurde heute zum ersten mal gedüngt mit Rootjuice und Bio Grow.

Day 43 let's start week 7! the plants grow and continue to stretch. unfortunately two weeks ago my ph meter broke. last week I started giving 1ml / l of green sensation and the plants seem to have lightened a lot. these days i should have the ph meter back so i can check. all in all they seem to grow well apart from this "yellowing". Day 44 the pH pen arrived and I discovered the cause of the yellowing. the ph was about 5 😭😭😭 now I let it dry well and brought the ph back to 6.7 and given 0.5 l and I wait for it to dry again keep following me to see my progress. it is my first growth and I make many mistakes, leave a like and give me an opinion or advice to improve. good luck and happy day!🌱💚

OG EVERGLADE-- Day 69 PINEAPPLE RUNTZ-- Day 61 Plants are stable. Struggling with ph drifts by 0.2, ranging 5.6-6.0. Plant will guzzle food and water for 2 days after reservoir change with fresh nutes before stop eating all together, drinking barely any water. Must be having constant unbalance of chemicals. Ratios do matter in hydro. Plants are being selective for nute uptake. Lucky 3 weeks out. Plants dont look stress. Waiting for final swell to happen. Pistils turning orange and curling. Might be done on day 80. I have surgery this week. Might skip 10wk update. HAPPY GROWS🌲🔥💨

day22 video. now adding more pk booster than earlier weeks, should be done week 7-8 we will see day23 I start adding more pk, still will 4x more pk now. Some nice pics today, videos of each, frost on fan leafs, no issues other than pros: bridal frost on fan leafs+sugar, cons 6ft tall. I think I should have pumped more pk earlier into flower/pre Its cool. Adding 2tbsp soluble pk into 5gal vs quarter tbsp in beginning 22 days ago. I am feeding soluble pk, +3 pk soil conditioners and carbs every day. There is no water day. day 25 stacking up. been spraying old cs I made 3ish years ago to test, works on unrooted so I may potential cross. Bridal starting to smell like a mix between fresh watermelon, and lemon+lime or a citrus aroma.
