*********Week 6 - January 13 to 19, 2020 (Days 36 to 42 from germination) This is going to be a brief update but that’s a good thing 😀 The week went by pretty quick and overall it was great progress. She stood up more and her bud sites set in and are starting to stack.👍 Her colour holding nice and her leaves are still pretty wide work up. Have done some further cleaning on the bottom and removed a couple of leaves that were blocking. Took off a couple of low nodes as well. Introduced Massive this week for bud density. She has a very thick main stem. It bends right away but a “quarter” roughly in diameter. Should help hold all that bud😎👍 Keeping wet and happy is a balance. She was good with 2L last week and by the end of the week now she wants 3L and approaching 1 gal a day. Note for week 2......also noted by breeder.😱🙏 Following the breeder notes I also bumped up the CalMag on one of the feedings a bit to help ensure she doesn’t show issues. Don’t want to use CalMag much longer though because she already gets lots of nitrogen. Not sure how much longer to feed......will go another full week for sure. If she runs a full 9 weeks then if allowing a 2 week flush you only go through week 7....that next week! Therefore, even if I push it I will likely only go another week and a half of feeding😟😓😕 Crap time goes fast!!!!!! Gonna have to ensure she is wet and happy👌 Little more detail: Jan 13/20 - Day 36 - 1L feeding of Sensyzime, Piranha, Voodoo Juice @ 2ml/L. Not pH’d......water been running 6.3. this was in the AM - PM feeding 2L only Dual Fuel @ 1ml/L, Liquid Weight and Rezin @ 1.5ml/L = 575ppm pH 5.8. - trying out the Green Planet line so I introduced Massive this week. - lowered temps in room at night. Down to 65 degrees. - notice couple of brown spots here and there about 3. Noted for now as raising the pH already for flower. Jan 14/20 - Day 37 - Hit her harder today with full strength feed. 5.95pH - Pots were light so 3L feed. - Rhino Skin back in for some more silica. - Didn’t go......holly crap she got big last night😮😮.....but she is filling in her width. Jan 15/20 - Day 38 - 2L feed today. Only giving base nutrients and Sensyzime @ 1ml/L pH 6.1. - drinking more now and she doesn’t give run-off before 2L minimum. - keep an eye on the ppm not getting too high and consider increasing her moisture. Jan 16/20 - Day 39 - 3L full feed today. - want to strip a bunch of her leaves!!!! Keep tucking the leaves but even those stems are stubborn.....good problems👍😝 Jan 17/20 - Day 40 - She is hungry :) - 3L feed full strength. - runoff water: 1100ppm, 5.9pH........medium in good shape:) - Good growth last night....liked the nutes👊 - In the tent with only Green Poison is giving a little extra room and she is loving it. Jan 18/20 - Day 41 - She was not dry in the AM but rather inbetween. - watering with supplementals.......Sensyzime, Rezin, Liquid Weight, VeloKelp, Piranha, Voodoo....and CalMag. - 2L with 240ppm and 6.2pH - nothing in PM.....pots still wet......she is looking for 3L per day still roughly. - They are growing taller......top of tallest nodes falling to sleep sooner at night. - replaced CO2 in tent. - Very happy today and good growth with leave up. - 23” tall and 27” wide......with LST. Jan 19/20 - Day 42 - 3L feeding again today. Full strength again. - runoff: 1125ppm and 6.0pH. - stripped two lower nodes and 1 huge fan leaf. - her buds are getting wider and taller....filling in😎 - she is happy....keep the same and don’t change things......less than two weeks feed left. Have a great week fellow growers.......

8 week We have 12 strong plants and one skinny one. They start drinking more then 1.5 l with one application of water. Smells really sweetly and fruity. I really love it!

Half of week 6 was still in veg but now it switched into early bloom - I still expect a tiny bit of stretching. The bud structure is great many little buds sites Cylaxes are still at early development stage. I have been collecting the clover leaves and leaves from defoliation and dried them out, blended them into fine powder- so the earth worms can feed on them. Made a top soil mix ( used dried soil from the surface of the pot + powder leaves, one tea spoon of rizobacter and half tea spoon of mycorrhiza ) then I sealed with another layer of Light mix by Biobizz

think i overfeed a little bit the tips of the leaves show signs of burning so next will be 2ml bloom and 1 ml pk booster u can see the little burned tips of the leaf in the pictures. Guess it won't affect the growth of the buds. If u have any advice feel free to say :) Cheers Spekkoek

So I had a few issue. I over watered early on, took them out the seed tray early, started feeding them a week or two late, no humidifier yet but they recovered well.

📅 Week 11 | 🗓️ Day 71–77 Day 77 – Week 3 til 4 of flower 🌸Papayton 🏀 🔸This week the girls really started packing it on. Buds are swelling up nicely, calyxes are stacked, and those creamy white pistils are shooting out everywhere like little antennas. The sugar leaves are already frosting up heavy – trichomes glisten under the light, and you can tell the resin production is kicking into high gear. Colas are shaping up, and it’s clear where the big towers are gonna form. 🔸The foliage continues to look healthy: a rich green color with no signs of over-fertilization, no claws, and no noticeable deficiencies. The sugar leaves are already well coated with resin, which is a very good sign. The pictures show that the flower structure is growing compactly and vigorously—the plant is in full flow. I will give her BIO PK again for the next watering. She looks like she could use a little more. 🔸The SANlight is now running constantly at 100% with a distance of approx. 35 cm (approx. 1000 PPFD). To ensure that it produces more heat, I have positioned it slightly higher. The leaves appear relaxed and show no signs of stress. The climate remains stable, albeit slightly cool, during the day I achieve almost perfect values of 1.4-1.6 VPD, slightly less on very cool days., but the flowers look very fresh and compact as a result. Good air circulation ensures that the fine resin heads do not become damp. Climate is right in the sweet spot too: 📈 average daily values 🌡️ Temp = 25 - 26 °C 💨 Humidity = 50 - 55 % 🌬️ VPD = 1.40 - 1,60 kPa That’s pretty much perfect – low enough RH to keep mold away, but still comfy for the plants. Fans are running on level 5, dehu is on for more temp. All in all, a super stable week. Plants are cruising, stacking, and starting to pack on that frost. Things are about to get really fun from here. 🚀 🛠️ Setup (unchanged) 💡 2 x SANlight Evo 4-120 on 100% ⛺ 120 x 120 x 180 Spiderfarmer tent 🍯 Pots: 18L fabric pots 🌱 Soil: Bio-Bizz Light Mix 💊 Nutrients: BIO Tabs 📉 ECOWITT Gateway GW1200 🖍️ ECOWITT WH51 Soil Moisture Sensor

dear beautiful old Lady... ... your time has come...

This week went well. No issues and the Snak plant grew 2 inches this week. She looks healthy and strong. I will be doing a little more research on topping this strain. I have never grown anything from Mosca Seeds. I don't know this strain well so I want to know if it will be tall and thing or short and bushy or something in-between before I decide if I should top her o not.

This girl is growing like a sword – tall, slender, and cutting through the canopy with style 😅 She's stretched quite a bit, and down below she’s rocking four tiny side shoots that I’m honestly not sure what to think of yet. But hey, I’m letting her do her thing. Stretch seems to be slowing down now, and I'm starting to spot the very first trichomes glistening under the light, always an exciting moment! Let’s see how she continues to shape up in the coming weeks. Staying hopeful!🌱💚

empieza la 7ta semana de floracion. se sigue alimentando con top crop se le realizo poda de bajos para aprovechar al maximo la luz y engorden esos bellos cogollos tan apreciados.

Hi all! Today I continue to record my DARK Phoenix lady vegetation stage. This week the plant has grown a little. I continue to stretch the branches to the sides, thereby freeing up space for air circulation and light penetration. There are enough fertilizers from the Green House Seeds and the plant looks healthy and strong. I added some root food from GHE and also the Urtica from GHE. I continue to water every day, since it is COCONUT and it should always be wet - then there will be no salting. And I keep the PH in the range between 6.3-6.5. I Added slightly more fertilizer to water this week, so the PPM is about 650-700.

No estoy muy satisfecho con el cultivo. Aun habiendo realizado varias podas y defoliaciones todavía quedaban muchas ramas bajas y cogollos pequeños que han influido en el resultado final. En el próximo cultivo cambiaré la estrategia.

Harvested Around 220 Grams from 3 Plants, terps were there slightly, smoked fine, its alright, went with a differnent breeder after.

The 3 blue cheese plants are on the left side of the tent under 1 light and the 1 x sunset sherbet plant is on the right side under the other light Still using veg nutes for first 2-3 weeks of flower till stretch is done then start the boost and will add pk13/14 on start of week 5 I keep tucking them under the net for the first 2 weeks of flower then just let them do there thing and will add another net to support the buds

Fastbuds Banana purple punch and Gorilla Cookies are looking great in early veg. Started a second seed of the strawberry banana and she finally popped up so now it’s just a week behind the others,but looking good hopefully will see some real growth in the next week!

Started this week out by super cropping the plant right above the fourth node. The next day the plant was pointed towards the light again, and after a few days I had to tie the top down or it would have been standing up straight again. Watering with 1L every 2-3 days.

~ 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've got the AirCube system dialed in now and the plants have responded beautifully! I've upped the nutrients to 650ppm's and am running the PH at 6.0-6.2 @ 74℉. Tent temperatures are running 73/80℉ during lights off/on, RH is being maintained @ 65%, and co2 levels at 1150-1300ppm's. I upped the output of the HLG 650R to 65% via a TrolMaster Hydro-X Controller, and have it hung 28" above the plants. 10/20- Yesterday, I drained and cleaned the reservoir and 'brain bucket', then refilled the system with 60L of well water to which added the following: 100ml each of Plagron Cocos 'A' & 'B', 30ml of Plagron Power Roots and 45ml of Botanicare CalMag+, and 3 tbsp. of Plantonics Amino Bliss amino acids for a final level of 650ppm's. I then checked the ph and adjusted to 6.0 @ 74℉. I have also set the GrowAce AirCube system to 'Auto' mode and have it set for three 15min feedings a day, six hours apart, beginning two hours after 'lights on'. 10/22- All three Strawberry Gorilla's are looking really good now with great color and vigor. They all have their forth leaf set emerging now and their node spacing is fairly tight currently. With the girls doing well, I'm primarily concentrating on maintaining a consistent environment in the 4x4, paying close attention to temperature, RH, co2 levels and VPD. The three times a day feeding schedule with Plagron nutrients ( Cocos A & B, Power Roots) continues @ 650ppm. I am also checking the reservoir before each to monitor and adjust the PH and nutrients when needed. I have noticed that after each feed the reservoir PH climbs 0.9of a point to 7.0, so I have been adding 30ml of Safer Grow PH Down which brings the PH down to 6.1. 10/24- Today I drained, cleaned and flushed the AirCube reservoir and 'brain bucket', then filled it with 70L of 74℉ well water. After filling I added the Plagron nutrients separately and also began adding in Plagron Royal Rush. The feedings of Plagron nutrients continue three times daily, and I'm monitoring the reservoir before each, adjusting the nutrient level to 650-700ppm @ 5.9-6.2 ph. The tent environment has remained dialed in with the VPD averaging 1.40kpa over the last seven days. The Strawberry Gorilla's are responding well to the feeding schedule, and are also tolerating the increased light output which I now have set to 80% along with setting the co2 levels to 1100-1400ppm. There goes another week for these beauties and the upcoming weeks promise to be exciting as these girls really take off! See you there!😎❤️ 💚 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!💚

Vegetation Phase - Week 4 The Donutz ladies are cruising through Week 4 in style, with no major changes to their routine. Simplicity is the key: just consistent care, reverse osmosis water, and keeping the vibes steady in the tent. Growth is strong and steady, with no signs of stress or issues. Updates & Maintenance: Watering: Still exclusively using RO water. No overwatering, just light and consistent hydration as needed. Lollipopping: The plants got a little cleanup this week. Lower growth was trimmed back again, keeping the stems neat and focusing energy on the upper canopy. This helps maintain that signature Sea of Green look and primes the plants for fat main colas later. Observations: The plants are uniform, healthy, and stacking nicely. Each one is starting to show its individual character, but they’re all working toward that tight SOG canopy. Marienkäfer buddy is still around, keeping the ecosystem in balance. No pest issues, no drama. Next Steps: It’s all about staying steady and letting the Donutz do their thing. The lollipopping ensures the plants are focused on upward growth, and the stable environment in the tent is creating the perfect conditions for success. Week 5 is around the corner, and everything’s looking set for these plants to keep stacking up!
