~ 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!

I'm continuing with running the AirCube reservoir for 5-6 days between drain/refill, only topping off with well water and checking.adjusting the PH. The beginning nutrient strength is 800ppm, and over the course of the 5-6 days it has only been dropping approx. 150ppm's. The #3 plant has some issues with leaf tips 'clawing' and leaves 'taco-ing'. Unfortunately, with this system you're giving all the plants the same thing. If a plant in the run requires less/more nutrients, or prefers less frequent feeds/watering you're shit out of luck. That being said, the #3 looks crappy but it is what it is and we'll see how she deals with her issues. The #2 plant continues to be the stand out of the three and she's on a mission, getting frostier by the day! 11/24- Yesterday I raised the HLG 650R to it's maximum height available putting it approx. 30" above canopy. In addition, I reduced the power to 80% to see if it had any effect on the #3 plants condition. I'll give it 2-3 days to see if there is any change in her appearance, at which point I'll decide what to do with the light output. The #2 pheno is getting super frosty and is looking like a champ! The #1 plant is just starting to get her 'frost engine' going and I'm hoping she'll follow in the #2's footsteps! 11/26- Tomorrow I will once again be draining, cleaning and refilling the AirCube Reservoir with 80L of well water. After filling, I'll be adding Plagron nutrients to a 800 ppm solution strength, then will adjust the ph to 5.6-5.8 @70-71℉ . 11/28- There goes three weeks of flower for the Strawberry Gorilla's and I wish they looked better, but it is what it is. I still have hope for the #2 and possibly the #1 but anything can happen so we'll have to wait and see how these girls turn out... fingers crossed!😎🤞 💚 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 too crazy to report from this week; her smell is potent and shes covered in trichomes. Touching the plant covers my hands and arms in sticky resin-like glue. 😁😁 I am very happy with the state of my secret garden. Considering this is the first shot; the internet and others in the grow diaries community have really put me onto the right course. Thanks! Ive been defoliation both plants as and when needed and from the trim i have been making cannabutter for baking :) Ive also taken some pics in the dark to highlight the trichome production :):) RQS northern lights has had a better start than QO and its really starting to show; she's overtaking QO and just starting to flower now... she is massive! Far far bigger than I was expecting. Shes almost 80cmx80cm in canopy area. Similar nutrient mix used as last week barring the change to 15ml/10L of PK13/14 from 10ml/10L 40ml/10L of a+b 15ml/10L of PK13/14 1 drop of superthrive ph ~6 ppm ~1150

E andata da DIO! Questa genetica mi ha letteralmente reso l'uomo più felice della terra😂 i suoi colori sono strepitosi e adesso che ho iniziato il flush abbasserò anche la temperatura di 2-3c in modo da fare uscire ancora più colori😇.... E veramente una varietà spettacolare questa di Fast buds e mi viene l'acqua alla bocca solo a vederla! Ho intenzione di lavare per 7 giorni minimo anche se il substrato è di cocco ma vorrei cercare di avere un prodotto finale veramente pulito (anche se ho coltivato organicamente)....ci vediamo alla prossimo aggiornamento e ricordatevi di aggiungermi su Instagram curati_da_solo🌱🌈💫 Volevo ringraziare BAC per i suoi prodotti da urlo! E spero di poter usare tutta la linea nella prossima coltivazione così da avere risultati ancora migliori! Peccato che non ho avuto un calmag il PROACTIVE e il silicapower ...perché penso che se avessi avuto una tabella più completa sarei riuscito a fare ancora meglio! Ma mi interessa fare vedere che sonusare i loro prodotti così forse posso avviare un progetto più serio con loro! (Prossimo progetto a brevissimo 😇) Vi lascio al prossimo aggiornamento per il taglio! Spero che piaccia a tutti FAST BUDS SEI SPECIALE!🌱🌈💫

She's looking super beautiful after the stretch,she looks strong and ready for full flower let's see how this beautiful California girl performs! 💚 🌱 ✌️

What can I say papaya sherbet really thriving under low stress training starting the last week of stretch hoping to keep a level canopy, but without topping her it’s hard to keep it flat🔥

Day 88. Amazing girl. Trim jail was easy, but she needed few more weeks to properly finish even so high lolipoped colas. Sugar leave trim left for butter and freezed , the rest of foliage and trim goes for bubble hash. Day 98. 92 g went for curing Happy Growing !

Another week growing strong! Took advantage of the last summer days here in the island to get her some real sunlight, which I can tell she loved by the boosted growth. Nothing like the real thing ☀️

. 🌱 Tag 7 - Die Köpfe sind draußen Eine Woche ist rum und wir haben’s tatsächlich geschafft: Alle drei Guava Auto RF3 haben die Oberfläche durchbrochen und zeigen mittlerweile stolz ihr erstes Grün. Der Start lief überraschend entspannt, trotz unseres verlängerten DHL-Abenteuers zu Beginn. Die ersten Tage standen komplett im Zeichen von Wurzeln bilden, stabil werden und Licht einsammeln. Noch wirken wir klein, aber unter der Erde passiert längst deutlich mehr, als man oben sieht. Jede von uns entwickelt sich etwas anders und langsam erkennt man schon erste kleine Unterschiede im Wachstum. Das Rennen hat also offiziell begonnen. Wasser gab’s bisher eher vorsichtig dosiert: 💧 Tag 1: 50 ml 💧 Tag 5: 250 ml Natürlich pH-reguliert auf ungefähr 6,2. Der Gärtner meint wohl, wir wären empfindliche Spa-Gäste. Beschweren tun wir uns jedenfalls nicht. Die Bedingungen bleiben stabil, die Erde angenehm feucht und die GrowCam C4 hält weiterhin jede Bewegung gnadenlos im Zeitraffer fest. Wer sich streckt, landet direkt im Filmarchiv. Für nächste Woche steht möglicherweise schon der erste große Umzug an: mehr Platz, größeres Zelt und als neues Sonnenzentrum eventuell eine Mars Hydro F4000 EVO. Klingt ziemlich luxuriös für drei Pflanzen, die vor ein paar Tagen noch im Wasserglas geschwommen sind. Jetzt heißt es erstmal weiter Wurzeln drücken, Blätter ausklappen und langsam Fahrt aufnehmen. 🌿🎥 Gärtner: Die Bilder und die Zeitraffer aus Woche 1 kommen natürlich auch noch dazu. Mit der Qualität der GrowCam C4 bin ich allerdings immer noch nicht wirklich zufrieden. Ich würde deshalb gerne ein Upgrade machen. Falls ihr Vorschläge habt, schreibt sie gern in die Kommentare oder direkt per Nachricht. Darüber wäre ich echt dankbar.

Checkout my Instagram @smallbudz to see the Small budget grow setup for indoor use, low watt, low heat, low noise, step by step. 08/11/2019 - Showing early flower development? 09/11/2019 - Gave her 0.500 ml plain water PH 6.5, she's starting to need more water and also due to 30c temps. She's also showing light green around the leafs maybe slight magnesium deficiency. 10/11/2019 - Yellow leafs showing up really fast so I 'flushed' the medium with 1l of 6.4 PH plain water, watered until some run off start to showing, change the watering plan again, now I only water when the pot feels light and dry at the bottom. 13/11/2019 - Pot was really light and dry at the bottom so I gave her 1.5l of water with 0,75ml of Grow, 1,5ml of Bloom and 0.75ml of Max BioBizz PH 6.5 until some runoff started to appear I think was too much again : also added a work-supplement led strip light. 14/11/2019 - Leaves looking pale raise the light to 45cm instead of the recommended by manufacture 25-40cm.

Pheno 1 dark purple : On the nose, it reveals a sharp burst of fresh lemon, layered with a powerful eucalyptus aroma that’s both invigorating and camphorous. A truly refreshing and vibrant terpene profile😈🍋 Pheno 2 Green : this one is a real surprise! If I close my eyes, it’s like Nutella! It’s as if you’ve just walked into a kitchen where hazelnuts have been freshly roasted 🤤🌰 Pheno 3 light purple : It’s a mix of the first two with a hint of amarena cherry at the end🍒🍧

great plant, but unfortunately , it has big % of hermaphrodites.

this lady from the off set was the fastest growing and largest plant from the off set growing bushy with lots of leaves needing the biggest defoliation's too get that important light down too the many branches below, she is drinking about 8 pints of feed a week and loving life , and her bud production is also coming along nicely too , i cant wait too try this one ,

This was a funny journey. It reacts better to scrog than LST, lst one only yielded (wet) 159g while the one with scrog yielded (wet) 346g. Unfortunately I got mold on the top bud of the lst plant, high humidity is very dangerous to this strain (atleast for me was). After drying for 1week and curing it for other week I decided to try it out and I got pretty happy with it. First grow and the buds taste very fruity and sweet, from 0-10 the ash is probably an 8. I am excited to try the other one out since it received much more light (it has 17colas). Loved to grow this ones, highly recommend this strain for beginners. I'll update the outcome whenever they dry. Thank you everyone for supporting me on my first grow. 87g dried, not bad for 105W (tgl star 100), taste is pretty good and It gives an uplifting buzz.

Flowering time.

Va tutto come previsto. Crescono rapidamente e già hanno iniziato a prendere la forma di piantine vigorose. È stata una germinazione impeccabile! I cloni di Orange Bud con calma stanno prendendo vigore e forza, sono posizionati in penombra e le radici sembrano più evidenti! Le piante madri in rigenerazione sono enormi già! Si procede con passione ed amore, un abbraccio a tutti!

Today I submerged it in water for several hours. In the evening I will transfer it to a paper towel

Fighting the crazy humidity 😵‍💫 I had to cut away 1 second node bud because of mold😔 I checked everything very good after that and luckily it's the only one. I'm running two dehumidifiers in a small room at the same time it still wasn't enough. So yeah little disappointed but it is what it isssss let's continue. I still have a lot beautiful ladies going on I think so let's just focus on the positives💚💚💚

Día 54. A pesar de todos los problemas e inestabilidad con esta planta, parece haberse quedado pequeña, no obstante sus flores fueron engordando y compactándose y se ven una delicia de colores y cristales blancos encima como pequeña montañas. Ya falta poco...
