- Week 11 - ----- Day 71 ------ The end is in sight. The trichomes are slowly turning amber/purple inside. and a lot are cloudy. No more fertilizer until harvest day where I will use floranova grow to induce leaf growth when i switch them back to 18/6 with Metal Halide at 600 watts. I'm going to guess day 75-77 harvest. ----- Day 73 ----- Back Wedding Cake was ready for chopping. You can see from the 60x micro more mature amber and drying mature trichomes than cloudy/clear. Front is not, Going to chop day 77. More cloudy/clear and round trichome heads then mature and shrunk. This is a huge yield. not going to guess but Harvest number should be by far the largest I've ever grown. ----- Day 74 ----- Today Im gonna sample the Wedding Cake harvested yesterday. I hope it knocks me the hell out to my couch with a bat to the face of intensity. Time will tell. Probably no update on the high till tomorrow lol. ----- Day 75 ----- Okay, last plant will be done Saturday. Trichomes are mostly ready, 48 hours she's cut worthy. I wont be updating tomorrow, there's no point. Saturday should also have some more of the Day 73 Wedding Cake (from here on known as D73 WC) dried for a better smoke report (yesterday I just passed out) but I don't expect them to be dry for at least a total of 7-10 days and it's day 3 today. (they're fuckin fat and DENSE so it'll be a longer process to remove the interior moisture) Last water feeding for them tomorrow. Next time they're ready for water I'll be feeding FloraNova GROW to assist in the transition back to 18/6 Vegetative 600 watt metal halide that will start the day after harvest (Going to give a full 24 hours after harvesting before changing light cycle. I've learned to NEVER double up stress on plants. It's like breaking the law, you never break another law while doing the first one, it exponentially worsens everything.) After harvest expect a Veg week by week addition to this grow, and then once my lab results come in from Tropicanna I'll set up a distinct diary for it. Then once the Wedding cake is done and results from lab are in i'll do the same. *** Update *** I put the time on for lights at 13 hours today instead of 12. That will continue for 7 days. It'll then go to 14 hours lights on for 7 full days with HID light before switching finally to MH @ 600 watt 18 hours. This is a technique I hypothesis will help ease the transition period back to veg. ----- Day 76 ----- Here's a nug shot. Lied about not updating today. Harvest tomorrow. ----- Day 77 ------ Harvested today. Here's some pics. Fed FloraNova Grow - 800ppm 6.4ph 8 liters to start the reveg journey. Tomorrow i'll be adding a new week - Veg - as lights will be going to 14 hours during that week which I will use as a transition for 7 days before jumping to 18/6 until re-flower in probably October. Harvest info will be 7-10 days from now unfortunately folks. Shits thick and therefore lots of spaces for water to be hiding and needing to be dried before curing. Smoke is real nice. super clarity followed by ocean waves of distraction and spacing out.

Day 85. Girls are packing up , still flowering like nothing. I have other diary with moved Kushes running and explained there a bit more why i think i have that leaves discoloration. Still lost what happened, but measures were taken, girls got EcoThrive Microbe Tea, Epsom salt , now its only to finish them. 3 plants from 8 got some deficiency and the only variation was new brand of molasses for me. Let's see will it stop the spread or i have to find real problem .... I was always using Cal-Mag not by Biobizz, this grow i tried to use theirs, but simple epsom salt works better and faster... Drifting away from organics a bit ;))) Skunks looks like a faster strain, Cheeses just packs flowers, no brown pistils at all. In my mini hopes they are 5 weeks away from harvest. Happy Growing and Merry Christmas !!!

Week four showed good growth. I started lst. The LSD-25 is responding great. I love watching this plant. By far my favorite. The PH issues did not seem to bother it much. She finished week 4 at 6.5 inches tall with a great bonsai look. I trimmed some foliage, and tied a few branches. The white widow seems to be stalling. I am sure I over watered this week. She is a 5.5 inches tall at the end of the week. I tied a few branches down as well. I need to trim some leaves but was hoping she would stretch a little more. The sleepy yoda showed was really stunted by the PH. I now have the PH under control. I want to feed, but I am afraid it is to late and with the PH issues I was unsure. Right now I am still water only. Looking into feeding more. I ordered new lights. They will go in right in time for the start of week 5

The growth on the girls continues to stagger me! We have had a less drastic week this week then last everything gone smoothly! Took the LST off on day 16 to allow the girls to continue growing upwards, already bushy enough and only so much space in my tent, but as you can see from the vid the stems and canopy looking great! So many potential bud sites! Been doing lots of leaf tucking, fortunatly nodes nice and close together so it makes my life simple can optimise the light penetration very easily! The feed has been increased to 1.5ml/l of vega and 0.9ml/l of calmag, doing feed feed water. Girls drinking alot now and giving each around 1.5-2L per sitting every couple of days! Stem diameter just below first node - 16mm Getting around 1.5-2 inch of growth a day currently. The girl that had the transplant is loving life and really filled out her pot showing little signs of being stunted, few slightly crinkly leaves but at the time it was like -3 outside and wasn't ideal situation to be doing transplant in, but no obvious signs of being stunted! The first signs of flowering on day 21 but its very early should be more obvious tomorrow! The good times are about to begin :) These girls are so big now its kind of lucky we broke one and dropped to 4 plants not sure there is room for a 5th in there! Let me know what you think of the progress and drop your estimated yields below see who gets the closest as we go through the grow! Don't forget to follow me on insta guys if you want daily updates! @rudigrows

Week 5 flower : upped the a&b to 2.5ml litre and steered the pk at 1.2ml per litre Blue cheese : they have completely outgrown the sunset sherbet . I’ve raised the light as the buds at the back of the tent were literally 1” away it didn’t do much harm although the leaves on them buds started to curl a little so I thought best to raise it now before it causes any stress . I’m still watering everyday to run off . I removed a few fan leaves but I am considering doing a bigger defoliation in a few days as the fan leaves have taken over . They are really starting to smell very sweet and filling out .I was worried about these seeds as I have grown Buddha blue cheese about 10 years ago and now they have changed the name to blueberry cheese and I was told they will be different from 10 years ago . So far I don’t think so as they look the same and smell the same at this point I can’t see any difference which I’m happy about as I haven’t had any good blue cheese for many many years .although they smell the filter is definitely controlling the smell outside the tent . Sunset sherbet : although it hasn’t grow very big it’s very frosty and starting to smell . I will carry on the pk for another 3-7 days and will start the flush about 6 1/2 weeks in for 2 weeks with plain water I will also defoliate about in a few days

~Entry for the 'Best Rarest & Smallest Pot by Seedsman' contest~ Starring 🤩.... ~ Seedsman Zkittlez Auto ~ Zkittlez (Grape x Grape Apple) Auto x Auto Fruit (Auto Fruit Cheese x Auto Blueberry) Zkittlez Auto is one of the very sweetest-tasting auto strains available anywhere. It is a sativa-dominant (60%) strain that was bred from Zkittlez (Grape x Grape Apple) Auto crossed with a male Fruit Kush Auto, the latter a remarkable fruity strain bred from Fruit Cheese Auto and Blueberry Auto. Growers can expect to harvest some good yields of high-THC buds. Zkittlez Auto remains a fairly short plant, rarely exceeding 120 cm. in height wherever it is grown. This is a vigorous plant which is able to metabolize a high level of nutrients and she's a thirsty girl too! If growing indoors close to neighbors it is strongly advised to ensure good and effective carbon air-filtration in order to neutralize powerful odors. This strain's life-cycle is approximately 90 days from seed to harvest. The leaves on this plant are big and wide serving to convert every lumen available into Zkittlez goodness. Indoor growers should obtain between 400 - 500 gr/m2 while plants cultivated outdoors will produce slightly more at 500 - 600 gr/m2. Lateral branching is very good and it is recommended to use supports/ties to prevent snapping and keep buds close to the light source. This strain's scent is sweet and fruity with candy and berry notes. Its high-THC has been measured at between 21 - 24% with less than 1% CBD. The effect is well-balanced, cerebral and euphoric, and is very good for social situations as well as for relaxing in front of the TV either alone or with company. It also has the added effect of helping to relieve chronic pain, helping with nausea, insomnia and depression as well as stimulating the appetite.** **Credit to Seedsman.com ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ~ The Setup ~ ~ Grown in a 2qt plastic popcorn pot filled with Mother Earth Grow 70/30 Coco/Perlite with Xtreme Gardening Mykos added. ~ Seed was germinated directly in the medium without any 'pre-soak' ~ Feeding will be by Dutch Pro Nutrients ~ 24hr light cycle while germinating ~ 20/4 light cycle after first leaves appear. ~ 4x8 Gorilla Tent ~ HLG 650R w/ 30w Supplemental UVA Bar controlled by a Trolmaster Hydro X controller set for a 15min Sunrise/Sunset simulation.

The Seedsman Zkittlez Auto is doing fantastic so far and Honestly I was a little concerned that she might get root bound and that it would negatively affect her, but she's doing great so far! She seems to be doing well getting watered/fed every other day right now and only shows a very slight sign of drooping before I water/feed again after a day of drying out thoroughly. Today she was given 0.25g of well water with a base ppm of 100 to which I added the following Dutch Pro nutrients: Bloom 'A' & 'B' @ 10ml/g each, Explode @ 3.8 ml/g, Silica Von Liebig’s Special @ 1.2 ml/g along with Earth Juice's Oily Can @ 5 ml/g to end up with a total 1200ppm(500 scale) nutrient solution. After adding the nutrients and checking the EC (2.4 EC), I ph'd the solution to 6.3 @ 72℉ then watered until I had runoff. After she finished draining, which took around 5 minutes, I turned her pot 1/4 turn. 12/22- Well the Seedsman Zkittlez Auto is looking like a Rock Star with excellent color, great vigor and she's stacking her flowers like crazy... What more could I ask for?😎👍 Today she was given 0.25g of well water with a base ppm of 100 to which I added the following Dutch Pro nutrients: Bloom 'A' & 'B' @ 10ml/g each, Explode @ 3.8 ml/g, Silica Von Liebig’s Special @ 1.2 ml/g along with Earth Juice's Oily Can @ 5 ml/g to end up with a total 1200ppm(500 scale) nutrient solution. After adding the nutrients and checking the EC (2.4 EC), I ph'd the solution to 6.5 @ 73℉ then watered until I had runoff. After she finished draining, which took around 5 minutes, I turned her pot 1/4 turn. 12/24- 🎄🎅MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!🎅🎄 12/26- Yesterday, for Christmas, I fed/watered her (she was drooping) to runoff with 0.25g of well water, that has a base ppm of 100, to which I added the following Dutch Pro nutrients: Bloom 'A' & 'B' @ 10ml/g each, Explode @ 3.8 ml/g, Silica Von Liebig’s Special @ 1.2 ml/g along with Earth Juice's Oily Can @ 5 ml/g to end up with a total 1200ppm(500 scale) nutrient solution. After adding the nutrients and checking the EC (2.4 EC), I ph'd the solution to 6.3 @ 74℉. Well there's four weeks of flower behind us now and she's got at least another 2-3 weeks in her for sure... stay tuned, it's getting ready to get exciting! See you next week fam! 😎🤙❤️ ~ Thank you from the bottom of my heart for following my grows and for all the ❤️and support you give! 💚What you grow - Grow what you💚

Transplanted to 40l container on week 4 day 1. Container has approx 30l in it. Also added a photo of the setup for size reference. Let me explain my thinking behind the repotting strategy. Firstly I should say that I am quite an old school kind of grower, although I've never grown cannabis before I have grown hundreds of other plants. Due to my experience with other plants, I understand the value of well planned and executed transplants, they can have an absolutely transformative effect upon root systems when done properly, as far as I know it's the main reason why they are done at all. It is fair to say I have never grown any auto-flowering plant indoors before, and I have read all about how you should not transplant autos, and all the good reasons why not. Ultimately though, as I am not called UnorthadoxDude for nothing, I believe that I can make it work with an auto, and get the benefit of improved root growth pattern, without delaying or interrupting the growth. I want to have my cake and eat it, as it were. So the strategy is to avoid transplant shock, which admittedly I have already failed in the first unplanned transplant, but in my hopeful naivety I still believe I can make the second one work! I'm using coco, and I have had the larger pot prepared and have been watering and feeding them as well as the plant. If I am careful not to disturb the plant at all, and move the entire contents of the pot gently into the larger pot (which is exactly the same medium in broadly the same state), then I may be able to avoid shocking the plant and just let it crack on. We will find out in a few days! If it stops growing or slows at all then I failed, otherwise it worked! A note about my use of organic nutes with coco. I have read a lot about coco and nutes and microbes and PH and TDS and what have you, and I know that the overwhelming majority of people believe that you can't or at least shouldn't use organic nutes with coco. The thing is, I like organic gardening, I prefer to cultivate a beneficial microbiota and keep it healthy. I recycle, and reuse all my compost except where a plant is diseased and this has worked well for me for a long time. I've never grown with coco before though, I always used soil. I wanted to gain the benefits of coco (better drainage, more air to roots, lighter, less inviting to pests, etc) - but I wanted to use a method of nutrition that I was already familiar with. I think I've mentioned that I am not called UnorthadoxDude for nothing, so I am using BioBizz and coco. By adding bacterial, mycorrhizal, and trichoderma inoculants and having the unplanted coco in the tent being fed and watered I hope to have cultivated a nice microbiota which will feed my plant. That's the theory. However just in case, I have a trick up my sleeve. Now, I do not know if you are aware of this, but there is a fiery debate raging on the internet about using BioBizz organic nutes with coco for cannabis. Some people try it, most people shout it down, and I have not found much in the way of solid evidence of it being a good idea. Except one! I found a commercial grower that has used biobizz nutes, and he said that as long as you are using "Acti-Vera" you can use anything from the BioBizz organic range. Apparently the enzymes in the mix break down nutes chemically in a similar way to what the theoretically missing microbes do. So I have ordered a bottle of that, and if my microbial cultivation attempts don't work out, I at least know I have a fallback that should work. Those are my thoughts on it, let's see how it pans out. Oh I should also probably point out that I am growing some companion plants, specifically alfalfa (nitrogen fixing), basil (improved flavour), and German Chamomile (increased essential oil production). Update week 4 day 2 dropped PH to 5.8 after advice from a grow question. Look! It's carried on growing... maybe there was no transplant shock? Update week 4 day 3: Growth continues, interveinal chlorosis lessening. Plant is pushing out node five at the moment. Update week 4 day 4: Growth continues, interveinal chlorosis further lessening. Apologies for the poor quality photos for the last few days, I was lazy and didn't want to move everything out to photograph. Today I have done that and the pic is better. I am declaring the second transplant a complete success. I do not believe that plant was in any way shocked. Update week 4 say 5: I think I've finally managed to overwater. Going to skip watering today. Update week 4 day 6: Photo taken just before lights on hence wilting. Growth continues to accelerate. I believe the alfalfa has been raising the PH so I've removed it. Today I will flush through with PH lowered water and then fertigate. The colour is still too pale but the growth and overall look and feel of the plant screams to me that it's happy and about to explode. Day 27.5 flushed with 30l of PH lowered water then fertigated with 5l. Day 28: Height 12cm Width: 28cm Nodes: 6 Weekly growth data: From 5cm Height to 12cm +140% From 12cm Width to 28cm +133% From 4 primary nodes to 6 +50% Summary: Wow, wow. Wow. What else can I say. What a crazy week, amazing and unexpected given the problems. I am really excited to see what happens over the next seven days!! It looks like it has quite severe chlorosis, but otherwise seems robust and is seriously stretching. Almost unbelievable growth. Pre-flowers appeared a few days ago, so I guess this was the final week of veg. Let's see how the first week of flowering stretch goes! Update 7/2/23: My instincts about this plant on week 4 day 6 were absolutely correct, she was happy and, she was about to explode. Since my early attempts at transplanting, I practiced multiple times with Citronella (a photoperiod plant) and then I did it again with an auto (Polly) - this one went flawlessly and further demonstrates that you can transplant an auto without shocking it. Time will tell, because I can compare Polly to both Misty and Nesia both of whom were sown directly in their final pots.

Da ich mittlerweile eher der Meinung bin das meine Pflanzen etwas zu viel dünger bekommen haben gebe ich zur Zeit nur noch Wasser werde die auch bis zum Ende jetzt durchziehen (Spülung)........ Ach ja und diese Woche war hart die Temperaturen in der Box unten zu halten habe montag, dienstag und mittwoch in der beleuchtungs Phase das Zelt auf gehabt dadurch hatte ich 28,2 spitzen Temperatur 🌞 ziemlich hoch für die blüte Phase aber bei geschlossenem Zelt hatte ich morgens 32 Grad in der licht Phase da musste ich reagieren das problem an der nummer is das ich in einem Mehrfamilienhaus haus lebe mit 24 Parteien da gab es Dann schon auf meiner Etage komische Blicke Vor allem am Dienstag bin kurz einkaufen gegangen Zelt war offen und habe vergessen das Küchen fenster zu schließen komme wieder und mein Nachbar spricht mich an......... 😂🤣✌️ Das da ja ein sehr schöner Geruch aus meiner Küche kommt und ich sollte doch mal lieber mein Fenster schließen da er zwar kein Problem mit dem Geruch hat aber es ja noch andere Parteien im Haus gibt..... Puh😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰 mehr Glück als Verstand gehabt. Da ich aber auch den halben Tag dem Geruch von gras ausgesetzt bin nehme ich das auch nicht mehr so stark wahr wie andere.......

The grow was a rollercoaster of highs and lows. My Blue Dream plant developed mold in the buds, so I decided to harvest my Banana purple punch earlier to stay on the safe side. The trichomes exhibited a good balance of amber and milky colors, but unfortunately, there was no time for a proper flush period. Banana Purple Punch encountered the most challenges among the strains. It struggled with aphids, nitrogen toxicity, and thrips, which affected its overall health and bud development. This strain seemed particularly sensitive to high nutrient levels, which likely contributed to these issues. Despite these setbacks, I’m hopeful for a decent harvest. Each problem provided valuable lessons on pest management and nutrient balance, which will be beneficial for future grows. Update 09.08. Today, I brought the Banana Purple Punch into my apartment for a trim session. Since I didn’t trim her wet, this took a bit more effort compared to the Blue Dream harvest. The buds are quite airy and fluffy, but they have a fantastic aroma. The vibrant purple color of the buds is stunning, and I can't wait to give them a proper cure and eventually taste them—I’m confident they’ll be delicious. Unfortunately, I had to discard a few buds due to mold spots again. The rich purple hues of the buds make it challenging to distinguish between mold and the natural coloration, but once they're fully dry and cured, the smell should reveal any lingering issues. The dry weight was 24 gramm.
