So far so good, setting her up for some big yields. Letting her recover after last topping, due a defoliation which i might do today on day 57. Day 61 - growth has taken off, loads of LST, BENDING and tying down. Growth on top is doing really well as is the root zone. Bigplantscience is doing its job well! Very close to flipping her to 12/12 Day 62 - all is well, i think kts time to see some fruits! Stay tuned.

Hey growers! Another week down, and yeah… I know I’m being repetitive, but I really didn’t expect this kind of explosion from these autos. First time in coco + I started this run kinda pessimistic, so seeing them go full rocket mode caught me off guard. And that’s exactly why the 80×80 is now packed like a jungle, I honestly didn’t think four autos would fill the tent this hard. They’re still stacking and pushing, and the frost is definitely there, but space + environment are clearly setting some limits right now. Humidity is still my main enemy: even with a dehu inside I can’t get it much under 65%, temps aren’t super high either, so VPD sits around 0.80–0.90 kPa most of the time. Not perfect, but the girls are still moving forward. The good part? This run basically showed me my method. I’m pretty meticolous with checking numbers, and coco makes it way easier to stay on top of everything daily input/runoff EC, pH, the whole routine and I feel like that control fits my style perfectly. Quick note: on the Hyperion that started flowering first I noticed a bit of pistil darkening at the tips. For a second I was like “please no…” 😅 I checked what I could and didn’t find any obvious male parts, so I’m leaning toward simple stress/environment/light stuff. Runoff pH/EC looks fine, so I’ll keep an eye on it and keep going. I’ll finish this run with realistic expectations and take the lesson home. Good luck everyone and happy growing! 🌱

New week, new growth.. Will hopefully start the LST and Topping in a few days. They are really starting to grow. Fan leaves looking healthy and big. Girls coming with vigorous growth now, everything dialled in and happy. Just adjusting the EC/pH as needed when the girls show me the relevant signs/deficiencies if any. D31/D35- Decided they were in a good enough place to start topping the girls, all 6 topped and just some defoliation of the bigger fan leaves that are shading the growth shoots some HST was also done. We were also due a water change, so I cleaned the whole system just to keep things extra cleanly, very important in a RDWC system. I also switched over to a sterile system instead of using beneficial bacteria so I will experiment and see how this goes. Time to let the girls ecover before the next training session. Cruise control for now.

Sep 1: there might be a bit of lower leaf damage on WP1 after the 2 C night here two nights ago. Otherwise everything seems fine and the buds are progressing. Sep 2: removed some yellowing fan leaves that had been damaged by cold temps. Sep 3: WP1 has finally stopped getting taller and is starting to flower. Good thing too cuz the days get short pretty fast now and it will be iffy as to whether this plant will finish in time. Sep 6: Well, I spoke too soon as WP1 is still getting taller, and it grew 4 inches in 3 days. This far north, it should be flowering not vegging by early September. Oh well. Lots of insect life on WP1 (ladybugs, spider, flys, few ants even) and a few aphids so it seems to be in a balance and the plant is fine. WP2 in the city was force flowered a while ago and is progressing nicely. These are in small 5-gallon pots in an attempt to limit their size and to encourage flowering.

Flower35, riego 6.3 pH y EC 2.8, los cogollos están bastante grandes, aún quedan 2 semanas aprox para seguir engordando, todo apunta a una cosecha más grande que la anterior y en menos tiempo.

I've enjoyed a lot growing this plant, I had to deal at tje end of thr cycle with fungus gntas but she resisted without problems, each day the flowers stink more and more, amazing genetic, I would definitely like to keep on working with this genetic, it's a pleasure to smoke, I recomend you to grow her organically like I did snd you'll see!

Lots of issues at the moment, issues with not knowing if I have a deficiency or if the plant is progressing along. Yellowing leaves - should I let them falls off? should i remove them to prevent their getting infected and infecting others?. Outside temp is around 30-32 degrees making my ice pack on the pot side solution insufficient to keeping the temperature stable. Lots of tucking and the canopy is reaching 1m2 and the roots are so massive they fill the bucket completely (15L). They smell fresh and It feels alive, the smell the energy coming off the microbes, beneficial bacteria and mycorrhizza, like smelling a flowing river teeming with life. I didnt train the stems properly (i wanted more horizontality).. Which is causing the issues I have now. But in the old tent (which was 2x2 feet 60cmx60cm) they would touched the wall and created other issues, I hadnt decided yet where i wanted to put it next (120x240cm or 60x120cm). Im learning alot about electrical conductivity (ec) and also about how my plant responds to concentration of fertilizers and helpers as suggested by the manufacturers recipe. I have branches in the front that are not growing to the ideal height, im just tucking and tucking the others hoping they catch up. also the light ppfd is up to 1000. and the distance is about 250cm. Im hoping to get at least 350grams of dry bud, and if im lucky maybe even 500!. I plan to do the same exact grow again, with the same breed (not a clone unfortunately). Hopefully I can increase the yield as well as any factors i deem needing improvement (less electricity, optimal percentage of fertilizer, less fluctuation in vpd). in short: lots to learn! but not enough buffer!

Just as I thought, ran into a calcium lock out, it's my own fault but its a lesson and ill learn from it. I'm guessing I over did it with bloom and top max bloom stim, all the other readings are good so that's my only idea. Ive taken a picture of a couple of the affected leaves so please tell me if im wrong, any help will be greatly appreciated, im still learning. Bud development is coming along so she isn't suffering too much I don't think....Anyway, today is day 22 of flower, she's starting give out a nice fruity scent 😋

42Fast Buds - Gorilla Zkittlez Auto 🌱 Today marks 70 days, and it's finally time to bring this incredible journey to an end. 💫 Honestly, I can hardly bring myself to cut her down, I've grown so attached to her, and she's just so beautiful. But the trichomes have turned a deep amber, and there's no more time to wait. For the last 6 days, we’ve been flushing her roots with ice-cold water, watching as she transformed, her colors changing and becoming even more stunning. It wasn’t just a grow – it was a true process of evolution. I want to give a huge thanks to 42FAST Buds for their amazing genetics and for allowing me to grow such a phenomenal strain. Gorilla Zkittlez Auto is an absolute masterpiece! 💥 Special thanks to Xpert Nutrients for their incredible fertilizers and ongoing support. Without you, we wouldn’t have achieved these remarkable results. You helped grow not just a plant, but a true work of art! 🌟

Week 7: Flowering Stage Rising Temperatures and Growth The weather has taken a positive turn, with temperatures rising again. This change should promote some nice growth in the ladies. The increase in warmth will help accelerate bud development, and I expect to see significant progress in the coming days. Nitrogen Toxicity Banana Purple Punch After the initial intervention two days ago, the situation has not worsened. I am monitoring the growth of the newly emerging leaves to ensure they do not continue to curl downward. The pH level of the runoff looks good, sitting exactly in the ideal range (6). I hope the plant recovers quickly and that growth and yield are not adversely affected. Feeding and Watering Adjustments With the warmer weather, I have adjusted my watering schedule to ensure the plants remain hydrated. I’m now giving each 11-liter pot 3 liters of nutrient solution to prevent salt buildup. This should help keep the plants healthy and promote optimal growth. Pest Control A few leaves have slight holes due to snail damage, but otherwise, there are no significant pest problems. The plants are still kept in the greenhouse overnight due to the high snail population. I don’t want to serve the ladies to the snails on a silver platter. Bud Development The buds are swelling nicely, and the resin production is increasing. The plants are showing significant signs of maturity, with the aroma intensifying. The trichomes are developing well, and I’m pleased with the progress so far. Blue Dream: This strain has the largest buds so far, and the smell is the most intense. Banana Purple Punch: The buds are also looking good, but the aroma is weaker compared to Blue Dream. Gorilla Cookies: This plant has had a growth spurt and is showing beautiful tops with white hairs. Tangie: After the initial pre-flowering, Tangie has not formed many buds and is still in the full stretch phase. Low-Stress Training (LST) Update I am no longer tying the plants down. Instead, I am bending some branches in different directions to ensure all the shoots receive sufficient light. I have removed very few large leaves but am tucking the leaves out of the way. Happy growing my friends 🍀🥦

Soo, I think I can start to call it the first week of flower. #2 definitely is showing a few white pistols, #1 is just starting her first set and I'm pretty sure #3 will shoot them out any day! Also seems that removing the lowest two side branches of #1 was a huge success! She basically is the same hight as the others BUT I LST her a bit to expose the smallest side branches out of the three to more light! Also, I put a little elevation for her, so they stay the same high. #3 is doing #3 things and continues to grow rapidly. Topping her was the right move I think. I'm quite new to autoflowers (I mean pretty much in general but I had one random regular seed run before this but that's it) so I hope, I didn't call it too early but I'm positive:) Also my new microscope and the Blumat drip irrigation system finally arrived. I heard it can be a bit tricky to get it running but once it runs, it should run like a charm. Very very excited for this since I'm planning on going living soil in the future, which should fit very well together. Before installing the system, I removed the first set of true leaves of #1 and buried the wounds in soil. I hope she will build roots there. With #2 I took scissors and scratched up the main stem and filled it up with soil. As well I hope for more root growth. #3 just got a little bit more soil without any extras because of the topping. After doing all that, I watered with the BioEnhancer. I took 0,5g/l and around 1,5l in total. Quite a lot of update for just one day haha. Flowerpower baby! Didn't really have the time for further updates besides pictures. I did defoliate all 3 a little bit and keep fine tuning the Blumat. I think it's working quite well so far. #3 has some little spots looking different but nothing major I feel. I'm more worried about #2. Her tips start to yellow up a little. I hope it's because she grew too fast into the lights and now where I pulled lights back up to 35cm, she will be fine again

day 42 images are in last week, I can not count XD. bridal is stacking a lot of weight and is constantly shifting/leaning every morning, good things. I would chop any day but I will wait it out. water, tiny bit of humic and folvic to reduce chloromine, chlorine- air stones day 45 took a few nugs off on day 42, dried for 3 days. Tried bridal and blackberry. As a heavy recreational, thc is up there! bridal felt like having a blindfold over your eyes somewhat sativa uplift but heavy weight feelings. Very good. Lasted as good as 30%'s. Dr. Thunder was also very nice, nug was smaller so mixed with blackberry to have a small j. Also feels very good indica. Both trials were chopped on week 6 day 1. Very pleased with the results. I was worried bridal was more sativa; which charasteristica I am not looking for. So I believe this is a very good heavy hitter run with 4 plants. I can chop any day, but I am waiting for pink paradise to finish seeds. day45 took top nugs from bridal party, blackberry oreo bigstuff and dr. thunder. No touching pink paradise!! day 46 can chop anytime just waiting on pink paradise seeds to finish, bridal party leaning more day 47 bridal leaning hard from weight. day 48 stacking, day 48 video
