About that time !!!!

Beginning of week 3 of flowering and plants are slowing there stretch down. I decided to let them come up into the second screen about a foot above the first screen. Second screen holes are twice as big as the first layer screen and is primarily to support the colas later in flowering. I stripped all the growth below the first screen so the plants won’t waste there energy on these lower beaches with no light under the canopy. I will be removing a few of the larger guard leaves later in the week on the top of the canopy to let light in to the lower shouts ready to come up, but not until after the plants recovers for a day or 2 from the bottom stripping. Smell is starting to ramp up, can really notice it strong when you open the tent now.

Running bunch of clones with the Floraflex microdrip/platforms. Everything from clone, going to be learning the drip system throughout the grow so could go either way. Check out my Instagram to get discounts and info on the system. The platforms are fuckin awesome they make life so much easier whether your hand watering or running the drip system. I have made a list of products to help those who want to try it out get started. A 6 plant platform setup is under $100 (not including pump $61) and 6 plant platform/microdrip is around $150 BEFORE THE DISCOUNT! Please feel free to contact me with any questions and to get the list, my Instagram dms is prob the best way to reach me I check them every couple days @bangdangbuds. There's 2 gorilla grow tents 4x8 and 5x9, 22 plants total, will be running co2 tanks for the first time on the autopilot monitor, trellis for the first time, floraflex base nutrients, product called oxyphos to keep lines clear and will mix in some samples aptus sent me when possible (cant use with oxyphos due to h2o2. Clones for 5x9 are already in final pots, clones for 4x8 are in the incubator.

Day 152 from seed ( 98 days since I changed photoperiod) and I'm harvesting after one week flush. A few buds seemed to have started decaying inexplicably, like burned, and had acquired a grayish- brownish coloration that I didn't like at all. I think she's caught a fungus. Besides I also think spider mites have done they job well because I was amazed at the extent they had sucked the sap on almost every leaf of the plant, fan leaves mostly. They have weakened the plant so much that she may be int he process of a more terrible thing that could be fungi. Back to spider mites, it is indeed nasty to see the damage this pest has done so far, because I see they have chewed almost -if not all- leaves, and fortunately they hadn't started to form webs, which I abhore seeing. I had started to see adult spider mite forms into the very inside of buds, while I was inspecting the thricomes, so before this nasty pest would eat up my precious buds, or any other cause (mold, etc) I took the decision to flush and harvest her progressively. First I'd harvest the most ripen buds or those that show signs of decaying and leave to the end the most immature (those that were far from lights, which are terminal and very big and dense though a but immature and bright green. The plant looked overall ready and I preferred to harvest the most bud I could, as you may imagine, but I would have liked another week for flushing more thoroughly. I've been flushing with tapwater and 2 mL/L Flawless Finish from Advanced Nutrients. In the next few days I'll be finishing her completely, drying won't take long and as for curing I think a couple of weeks. The smell in the room is really heavy (in fact it has been heavy for the last month), it stinks oif citrus here.

It’s day 33’from seed. All of the plants are really healthy. The plants have a really great root system at this point… I am currently slowly moving the light intensity up to the veg area. Now that are in a groove they are about to explode… I’m hoping I can flip the plants to flower in 1 weeks but I’m thinking I will wait to weeks and let them get a little larger. The plants are just now starting to look visually different next weeks update I will be ababoe to go into the visual differences, they are just not that extreme yet to really talk to much about.

Sticky Mango Auto — Week 4 Update Grower: Stoney Stark / Little Lilly Farms Stage: Late Veg → Early Flower Transition ⸻ Growth Overview By Week 4, a noticeable size difference has developed between the two plants. One plant is nearly double the size of the other, while the smaller plant has entered early flower first, showing visible white pistils. This staggered development is not uncommon in autoflowers and appears to be influenced by early root-zone moisture differences. The larger plant remains in late vegetative growth, while the smaller plant is clearly transitioning into flower. ⸻ Moisture Management & Wicking Adjustments 2/1 Signs of overwatering observed. Pots were placed on stands to remove them from the wicking rope and mat. The absorbent pad was removed from the pot showing more stress, while the healthier plant remained on the mat. After ~11 hours, both plants were returned to their wicking material. 2/2 Plants continued to show signs of excess moisture. Both were again placed on stands to fully disconnect from the wicking ropes. 2/3 Decided to extend dry-back by another 24 hours to allow the root zone to re-oxygenate. These adjustments helped slow water uptake and encouraged healthier root respiration before flower onset. ⸻ Flower Initiation 2/5 First signs of flower observed — white pistil hairs visible. 2/6 Smaller plant clearly showing pistils. Both plants were low-stress trained by tying down branches to open structure and manage height differences. ⸻ Feeding Log — 2/6 • Total volume: 1 gallon (split evenly) • Amount: ½ gallon per plant • PPM: 877 • pH: 5.9 Nutrients (per gallon): • Armor Si — 1 ml • Micro — 5 ml • Grow — 2 ml • Bloom — 4 ml • CaliMagic — 1.5 ml • Floralicious Plus — 1 ml ⸻ Nutrient Strategy & Purpose (Week 4 Transition) Armor Si (Silica) Used to strengthen cell walls and improve stress resistance. Especially important here due to recent moisture stress, training, and the upcoming stretch phase. Micro Provides essential micronutrients (iron, manganese, zinc, copper) that support chlorophyll production and enzyme activity. Keeps growth balanced as the plant shifts metabolic focus toward flowering. Grow (Reduced) Nitrogen is still needed, but at a lowered rate. This supports continued leaf function without pushing excess vegetative growth, which can be counterproductive once flowering begins—especially for the smaller plant already showing pistils. Bloom (Increased) Phosphorus and potassium are ramped up to support flower initiation, root signaling, and early bud site development. This helps both plants transition smoothly despite their size difference. CaliMagic Calcium supports cell division and structural growth, while magnesium is essential for chlorophyll production. Critical in coco, especially during stretch and early flower when demand increases. Floralicious Plus Provides organic acids and bioactive compounds that enhance nutrient uptake, improve root efficiency, and help buffer stress from training and environmental adjustments. ⸻ Notes Going Forward With one plant entering flower ahead of the other, feeding will remain balanced but conservative on nitrogen while continuing to support early bloom development. Moisture management will stay a priority to prevent further root stress and ensure a smooth transition into full flower.

So clones are hopefully nearly ready to form roots to allow me to put into their final pots! The main I put into the garden has started thriving, I knew she would as the soil she was in is very dense and holds water for longer of which I hate so once it got to root out it started to grow immediately stronger and bigger even after the whole trim down!

Nous somme à la 6ème semaines de floraison tout se passe comme prévu les bourgeons continuent de gonflés les paramètres sont excellents 24 degrés en température 55% en hydrometrie. - L'ajout de RQS guano a redonner un coup pouce à la plante les bourgeons ont sacrément gonfler aimer et regarder par vous même. Cet semaine sera aussi la dernière irrigation avec nutes. Ce run est l'une de mes préférée. Léger carences en azote post-stretch cela es dû a un faible apport de celui-ci mais rien de grave cela indique les derniers semaine de vie de cette dame le rinçage sera simple et éfficace. L'odeur quelle dégage es fortement fruité cela sent le 🍬 🍬. A plus pour d'avantge d'informations.👍🏼

Tout se deroule à merveille ! Temperature entre 21 et 22.5 led alumée. 18 19 eteinte. J’ai acheté un chauffage pour l’hiver au cas-où

I started rinsing 2 days ago, the trichromes are well formed and starting to turn milky. The end is near. 😎✌️🍀

Cloudy here today. Girls are taking on some nice colors due to the colder nights now. Went down to 2 here a couple of nights ago. Buds are starting to bulk up now. Had to fight a little PM I seen, so I sprayed them down with 60 parts water and 40 parts homogenized milk. All gone now., have to keep my eyes open for any more to start. If so, another blast will do them and that will give them enough time to finish up, without worrying any further...Thanks for all the looks and likes. People here are the best in the world. Thanks AMS for the opportunity to grow the best strains in the world...🙏

Had to give them a treatment for white flys this week so she a bit sad but she will be alright

TRANSITION DAY 1(35 in Veg) The video is crap but from today. i wanted to see if they upload or it using the apps features. I have now flipped them to 12/12 and am now in the transition period . Both of the girls have played ball with their cousins for growth this week. The Cookie does look smaller than the rest of the crop and will have to work to keep up as they go. The Orange sherbet is a star of a girl. she is well over her mutations and is producing so many sites everywhere. Os took her trimmings and bondage in her stride too. She responded with tons of growth and new leaf formations. Her stems are nice and thick and her structure quaded is perfect for weight and flowering. She is a keeper strain i think. lets see what she flowers and smells like but for growth she is amazing. The Cookie is also trying hard but i think she could get left behind in the room when the fighting begins.. As a freebie from Barneys , anything she does is pure bonus so might make Hash from her whole plant. Both kadies did me proud with recovering from their clipping and i know the TSL-2000 had a great impact too.

Its a vigorus plant, grows steafy and gets somewherw about a mette if a little lst complied! Huuge colas on all plants but one stood out so, it had treal csn sized rock hard nuggets. Full of trichtomes sticky as hell. Smelling like hash candy Growin it twice now and i will grow it again, its a lovely smoke

~ 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 •AirCube Active Oxygen Ebb/Flow 6 pot System •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: 10/1- Setting up the AirCube system when off without a hitch, with very easy to understand directions. I did have one issue, the Drain Petcock on the 25g reservoir was broken during shipping. After a phone call to GrowAce, they had a replacement one on its way to me which I received in just a couple of days! I did however make one addition to the system. I placed a pair of air-stones, one in the Reservoir and the other in the Distribution Bucket to really oxygenate the water. I started all my seeds by first soaking them in tap water for 12 hours, then transferred them into pre-moistened (6.3ph) peat pellets. I placed the pellets in half Solo cups in the tent with 24hrs of light under which they sprouted within 48 hours. I kept the tent temperatures between 80-84℉, the RH at 65-70% and made sure that the pellets stayed moist, not wet. 10/3- All of the Tropicana Cookies are looking healthy and have good color and vigor! I'll be moving them into their fabric pots which have already been pre-moistened in the next day or two, or as soon as I see roots emerging from the pellet. 10/5- Today I moved all three Tropicana Cookies into the fabric pots, adding some Xtreme Gardening's Mykos into each hole before placing the peat pellets. I have the HLG 650R set to 15% and hung 30" from the seedlings. Tent temperatures are 80-84℉ with RH running 65-70%. 10/7- Well there's the first week on the books for these three little ladies and they're looking fantastic. I'll be giving them their first feed this coming week and they should start to really take off... stay tuned! 😎👍❤️ 💚 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!💚

Then we start flowering. 💚

Day 47/48 introducing the 12/12 on high power leds on the ladies lookin good so far the black domians nmow oin the right and the acid dough on the left i think both lamps work very similar

two need another week maybe and the middle one looks like another two weeks. All three very frosty and stinky.

Apricot is a leggy little thing , doubled in size the last week . Transplanted her into her forever home and tied her down this week and fully expect her to double in size width and height the coming week , traditionally these autos love getting spread right out . Starting to take shape in the tent now .

Hello my friends 😇 I'm very sorry for missing updates, I'm very busy man in last weeks so I have very limited time for myself thats why I get silent for a while 😑 Good think is all of my girls doing great or even better 😅 I didn't add any new pictures for few days, different between that days is amazing, what do you think ?? Have a good night 😴 You Lovely Girls Growers 😇 💪 🙏
