On day 6 week 4 She is putting out alot of pistills and budlets no smell yet.flowering is deff underway now. This is looking like a 10 week strain as she took almost 4 weeks to start budlets which I usually see around week 2-3.

Northern Lights Autoflowers: Week 10 Grow Diary Repo The Northern Lights autoflowers, Charlotte and Makayla, have reached Week 10 on the deck, and their differing growth strategies are on full display. They are handling the outdoor elements well as storm systems roll across the plains, benefiting from the automated garden manifold design that keeps their irrigation consistent. Here is the status report for the garden. Individual Plant Breakdown Charlotte (Tall / Christmas-Tree Profile) Morphology & Height: True to her established genetics, Charlotte is standing tall and displaying a classic, vertical "Christmas tree" structure. Her central cola has reached approximately 14 inches in height from the soil line. Development Stage: Charlotte is well into her flowering phase. A well-defined vertical stack of pre-flowers and bud sites is forming along the main stem, with prominent white pistils developing. * **Canopy & Support**: Unlike her sister, her branches grow more upright. She is supported by a single bamboo stake bearing a blue flag marked with a "C". Makayla (Low-Profile / Bushy LST Profile) Morphology & Training: Makayla continues to display a beautifully managed, low-profile, and wide structure. This is the result of 100% low-stress training (LST). Her main stem and primary branches are pinned down horizontally using training wires anchored across the soil. Development Stage: Because her canopy has been kept flat and spread wide, her energy is evenly distributed. Multiple secondary tops have broken through to form an even, bushy carpet of vegetative growth with early flower sites just beginning to show across the node points. Canopy & Support**: She is thriving in her fabric pot, marked by a blue flag with an "M". Garden Notes & Observations Containers: Heavy-duty black fabric smart pots are being used. Irrigation**: Green coiled garden hose sections are secured inside the rims of both pots, acting as an automated irrigation manifold distributing water evenly across the mulch and soil. Companion Planting: Small potted marigolds are situated on the deck next to the fabric bags, continuing their job as the pest defense security team. Foliage Health: Both plants exhibit a rich green hue, though minor environmental weathering (small superficial spots or dust from the plains) is visible on some of the larger fan leaves. Overall vigor remains strong. Summary Comparison Side-by-side, these two sisters show how much structural impact training can have on identical genetics. Makayla is a flat, dense solar panel optimized for horizontal space, while Charlotte is maximizing vertical light absorption with her tall central cola. They are a fantastic case study for Week 10!

Plant was very hardy and stiff buds thick and dense. I'll update in a few days upon dry. We Did It... Let's groW some mo...

FBT-29 and FBT-31 - Strawberry Pie will.be harvested next week. In the tent temperature is so.high because of summer poor plants are suffering. I keep removing leaves.

Mild flushes last week. Day 54/ Day 1 of Flowering. Fed and light defoliation.

We are starting week 5! It’s incredible how strong she’s growing since entering the pre flowering stage. One week after entering preflower she’s stretching nicely and nearly covered the whole space. After 7days from pre flowering I did another defoliation to improve airflow and focusing on forming potential buds. Week 5 went smoothly and I’m still happy with the results and growing in coco. Looking forward to week 6!

Began active growth, develops very quickly, looks full 💚🇬🇪🚀

Finally up to date with the info! Well.. nearly. Will have more videos and detailed picture tomorrow for next upload. I believe these are a week old.

welcome to 📅 Day 74 5/24/2021 and its the first day of flush and I cant wait to chop this girl it has been a good grow for the most part the Mars Hydro TS 1000 is holding up good. That's it for now and I will see you all on Thursday. Happy growing and as always keep your stick on the ice 🏒

Flushed the Biggest plant sataday flushed the others today, two week maybe less with Justin plain water, the smell is just nextlevel 👌🏻

Foam cup keeping it to moisty.

time to Topping

Well here we are at the beginning of week 8. Super windy today but I got my new rain tarp up. June 25th gave all the plants pretty good snip except for Cinderella number 2 which is still slow but coming along tomorrow I may top all the other little branches not quite sure yet. just fucked up my pH metre by hitting the calibration button by accident and now I have no solution to recalibrate it so I'm going to have to wait and kind of wing it until the new one gets here in a couple of weeks but my pH in my house water is around 7- 7.5 12 ml of vinegar in 12 qts should be the ticket. Friday June 26th well I found a way to use clothes pins to use them as wait to hold the branches down I kind of like it tell me what you think. well looks like everything is coming along okay I keep the newts down I rather have them a little too lower than too high. well this is the last day of week 8 in July 1st and everything seemed to be going along fine but it looks like my Cinderella 99 run into a bit of a deficiency on the nitrogen and somebody let me know if this is right or not and if there's somebody in Toronto who can test the tap water for pH levels and let me know my pH metre is broken right now

How RQS Compares to Your Standouts Brothers Grimm (your "otherworldly" stars: Montel Iced Tea, Body Count, Bubbles Blueberry F4, Ricky’s Hash Plant, Black Tangi Tea) These are landrace-influenced, heirloom-style genetics with exceptional resin, unique flavors, and structure. They outperform RQS in quality, potency, and "wow" factor in your tents. RQS tends to be more commercial/hybridized for ease and yield, while Brothers Grimm prioritizes distinctive traits and consistency in experienced hands. Humboldt Seed Company autos (your top autos for resin, especially OG Triploid) Humboldt focuses on West Coast legacy genetics with heavy resin production. Clearly superior to RQS autos in trichome density and overall quality. RQS autos are faster and easier for beginners but often lack the resin "frost" and depth you get from Humboldt. Fast Buds (fast, flavorful, reliable autos — you like them a lot) Excellent speed and flavor profiles. You noted they're in a "different class" — fair point. Fast Buds emphasizes quick cycles and modern hybrids with nice terps, while RQS autos can feel more generic or require more coaxing. Quick Thoughts on Your Observations Brothers Grimm (Montel Iced Tea, Bubbles Blueberry F4, etc.): These are clearly the stars in your current setup. The strong smell, unique leaf morphology, and overall vigor in small pots show they're expressing well under your conditions. They reward careful growing with quality that feels special — resin, flavor complexity, and effects that fit your low-dose, functional style better than most commercial lines. Your homemade cross (Gelato 44 × Bubbles Blueberry F4 pollen = "Blueberry Knockout"): Nice work on your first intentional cross-pollination! Getting viable seeds and decent plants from a garage-level cross is a real win. It’s not "pretend breeding" — it’s exactly how many great lines started. The fact that it turned out "pretty nice" is encouraging. However, as you noted, combining a Royal Queen Seeds Gelato 44 (solid but commercial) with Brothers Grimm Bubbles Blueberry F4 (higher-quality, more unique genetics) creates a hybrid that can show the best of both, but also some inconsistency. If the RQS side brings easier growth but less depth, while the Brothers Grimm side brings the special traits, the offspring can be hit-or-miss depending on which phenos you kept. RQS Gelato 44 / Mike Tyson 2.0 vs. Brothers Grimm: Your experience matches what many growers report. RQS lines are generally more "user-friendly" and higher-yielding for beginners or volume grows, but they often lack the resin density, terpene complexity, and unique expressions you get from Brothers Grimm. The Tyson 2.0 collaboration added hype, but in your tents it landed at 7/10 while Brothers Grimm hit "otherworldly." That gap in quality is why you're leaning toward sticking with the professional, boutique genetics going forward. 3/30 11:17PM Gelato 44 & Punch Pie were nice right off the tree the little buds put me right to sleep last night!! The Autos are 7-10 but the Photos are 8/10 4/1 7 AM I did a video starting with black tan GT Julian’s trailer Park boys seed next is Ricky’s hash plant and then it goes over to ice – T and the multicolored one at the front is the combination bubbles blueberry and gelato 44 that I made I called a blueberry knockout 4/1 12pm We're gonna need a bigger TENT!!!💐🌼Humboldt Seed company email today...Im doing this!!! https://californiahempseeds.com/garden-seeds/ 4/5 12:57AM Today 500 years ago Jesus escaped from his stone coffin and began feasting on the blood of local rabbits, and thats the story of Easter. Makes total sense, he's the ONE J in all of history that thinks he's a god....sure Jan. Who's up for a fun game of Christians vs. Lions down at the old Colosseum today??

The 5x5 is one week from harvest. I’ve been sailing back nutes and she’s getting her last feed of 1.6 EC before the final flush. Still a bit frustrated that this app won’t allow me to separate my genetics but tent and week on here. I’ll update the 2x4 tomorrow as it’s entering week 3 flower. I also took about 150 clones of all the genetics I wanted to keep during this pheno hunt. We culled a lot of the veg tents.

Vamos familia octava semana de floración de estás Punch Pie de RoyalQueenSeeds . Que ganas tengo de ver el final de progreso de esta variedad, las plantas están sanas, se ven con buen color. La cantidad de agua cada 48h entre riegos, quitamos todos los nutrientes de la gama Agrobeta. Y entramos en la recta final, últimas semanas de floración ya, y como se están poniendo las flores. Estas próximas semanas veremos cómo acaban. Mars hydro: Code discount: EL420 https://www.mars-hydro.com/ Agrobeta: https://www.agrobeta.com/agrobetatiendaonline/36-abonos-canamo Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨.

Good week 👍🏾, overwatered them a tad but they coming along nicely !! Bud sites are looking good plants are thriving nicely can’t wait to see the buds start to form in the later weeks. Got 4-5 weeks left on them so almost there 🙌🏾.

Outdoor coco 15g pots Progress: Lava cake is about week 6.5. Starting to ripen and get heavy. Buds are getting fat. Strong sweet cookie/ ice cream smell. Buds are getting more frosty. Buds are getting so heavy I installed a net on 3 of 4 and doing #4 soon. On my most mature plant - About 25-30% of pistils have turned color. Some trichomes are milky, none amber. Looks like plants are a few days apart. Marathon OG week 5 1/2. Still stacking and getting fat. Smells dank. Trichomes are showing up. The 20 gallon OG is growing into a monster. I’m still waiting for the heavy bud stacks…. Nutes: Bumping up ppm, the dry koolbloom and molasses, stopping regular koolbloom and grow. Looking to starting flushing the lava cake in a week or so. Feeding 2x a day; 3x on hot days. Weather: Had a good week of cooler temps until yesterday, when it was 97. Looking at hugs in the 80s this week, perfect. Pests: The moths and caterpillars are in full swing so I’m applying BT every morning. I’m working hard to reduce caterpillar 🐛 losses. We lost all of the top colas on a plant in another location 💔 . I’m only losing one bud at a time and not the entire colas so far. Wishing fat buds and monster harvests to all.

started light defoliation and lst, overwatered once 😕 more lst in a few days and update next week 👆
