April 22 Sooo, i decided that the leaves that were getting no light and that the plant was naturally killing had to be removed as well as some initial ramifications that hadnt grown so much and were not forming any buds. I ended using powerzyme the other day and I will be using fast food minerals (BAC) mixed with some foliar alg-a-mic and see how they feel about it. The smaller ones seem to be streching so much more in this vegetation stage that i am afraid i will have 5 monsters in a couple of weeks. I know that there is a lot of discussion about pruning autos or not, i personally decided to go with a SOG though initially i was thinking more of a SCROG, but things got a little out of hand and i think it was the perfect moment, 3 weeks more to flower and recover from the stress. I will update in a couple of days. April 24 2 days after the defoliation the plants seem to be doing all right, buds are progressively getting bigger (or at least that´s my impression) and they are still getting taller, I honestly wasn´t expecting this size from an autoflowering strain, I´m very pleased with this LSDs. To get them through all this stress and since I had been only adding enzimes to the water for about 10 days, I started again with BACs Fast Food minerals yesterday (2,5ml/L though BAC says 4) and they loved it. Some of them were starting to have their leaves a little bit sad and they are now just reaching as much as they can to the light as you can appreciate in the video. End of the week Buds just seem to be getting bigger and i think they are no longer growing taller, they seem happy. Watering them every 2 days with 1 liter of water - food - water... and they seem to be fine with nutrients for the moment.

Last Thursday was the start of the fourth week. I didn't update earlier because I was away on vacation. I asked a trusted friend to take care of the girl. As you can see, in the fourth week of the girl's life, it started to bloom. I continue without giving any nutrients. I have biobloom and top max from biobizz at home. Do you think I should use nutrients or should I let it go until the end without nutrients?

Day 23 - Annoyingly, one of the main shoots snapped off after I pegged it down. It was fine when I left it, but as it is such a vigorous grower, it snapped off under the pressure of its own growth. All is not lost, as I will top it 4 times instead of my usual 3, to make up for the lost buds. This plant appears to be a BEAST so I think she can take it no problem. I should end up with 24 glorious main colas and a load of b-grade for the hash making pile! I gave her around 2 litres of treated water (see germ page for details). Around 500ml directly into the base of the plant, and the rest spread around the pot. It's important during this late vegging stage to water into the edges of the pot as much as possible, and encourage maximal root spread. Big roots = big fruits She's starting to smell earthy! Day 28 - she doesn't need any water today. The pot is still heavy. She's growing fast, so I'm confident I can top her one more time. I've pegged down 4 of the arms into a circle shape around the edge, and tied two arms together pointing vertically straight up. It should look stunning in a couple of weeks!

Día 15. Las plantas ya alcanzaron un altura muy buena. Ya empiezan a aparecer los primeros pelos blancos. Por el momento me ha sorprendido la reacción de las plantas al bud blood. Si puedo voy a comprar bud candy para ayudar un poco a la mezcla. Por el momento decidí mantener el bud blood a media dosis durante una semana más con el big bud. Veremos que tal resulta. Día 17. El estirón siguió y las plantas alcanzaron 51 cm. Las pequeñas directamente quedaron tapadas. En este experimento se puede ver la diferencia entre tierra e hidroponia. La verdad que estoy sorprendido. Creo que los productos usados son los que han marcado la diferencia. Las plantas quintuplicaron la altura total que tenían al momento de pasarlas a floración. Y sospecho que van a seguir estirándose una semana más. Espero no tener problemas de altura porque no lo planeaba. Creo que voy a cortar algunas ramas bajas más, dado que se están generando muchas sombras nuevas. Seguiré actualizando. Día 19. El estiramiento continua, pero levemente. Ya alcanzaron 55cm. Estuve cortando algunas ramas y hasta supongo que podría cortar más. Pero a esta altura ya todo lo que hay recibe buena luz. La diferencia entre la madre que está en tierra y los esquejes en hidroponia, es cada vez más notoria. Si bien ya la he visto, tener una planta al lado de la otra bajo la misma luz, hace la parte alevosa de todo esto. De todos modos, he comprobado que el sabor obtenido en tierra, es más fiel al de la hidroponia. En hidroponia en principio, las plantas son mas fuertes en todo, pero el sabor de alguna forma, es demasiado afectado por los nutrientes. Incluso habiendo lavado dos o tres semanas, la planta sostiene un sabor constante en todas las variedades, que parece estar atado a la nutrición. Siendo que en tierra, cada variedad tiene su sabor distintivo, siendo una distinta de otra. La próxima actualización será en la nueva semana, ya que al quedar poca solución, la voy a cambiar antes y voy a poner 12 litros en lugar de los 10 que vengo usando. Las plantas vienen comiendo mucho.

Start of week 7. Filling out and frosting up nicely 👌 👍

4/8 - They are doing great. PPFD at 800. Debating if I want to do CO2 this grow, because I could easily get 1000 PPFD out of this light. That means adding a dehumidifier to keep a sealed environment, but don't think there's enough of a cost benefit. Might just add more far red at lights on and lights off to try and get a little more vegetative stretch before I switch over to 12/12. Clock is ticking. Mother-in-law shows up 6/15, and I'll want it chopped by then. 4/8 - on further calculation, I'm switching to flower today. Never switched this early before, but we'll see how it goes, eh? 4/9 - prepping for vacation. Bought new 10 gal Roughneck storage container, mixed new nute mix 2:1:2. EC 1.40 with 0.3 tap water. 11ml of pH down to get PH from 6.4 to 5.8. Ditching the auto fill. Too high risk for flooding without flare fittings. Don't trust cheap-ass quick connect push fittings. 4/10 - turned off "seedling vpd mode" which kept humidity artificially high. Turned on 2nd bank of LED lights, so system is pulling about 370W with lights on, still significantly dimmed down. Turned on light cooling circ fan, which is a sealed aluminum labyrinth tied to two 4"vents. Although, almost all the heat this lamp generates is from radiation, not thermal loss of the LEDs, so the heat sink is barely warm. Lights up to 16" over canopy to allow growth while on vacation. Ppfd at canopy 800. Room temp 81, humidity 73. Auto water time is 30 sec per pot.

The two main events this week: Defoliation and training. The lady seems to take it well. Apparently the nuts I use have a rather low amount of Phosphorus... I had the same problem in my last grow (dark leaves, slow bud development)... unfortunately that time I didn't get what was happening. So I started giving them "Bud Explosion" now, 2ml/l, which basically contains a mix of Phosphorus and Potassium, and the improvement was almost instantly noticeable! I'm thinking she gets 4-5 more days to recover in veg. then I flip her.

DREAM SHERBERT AUTO / KANNABIA Week #13 OVERALL WEEK #8 FLOWER This week she's showing all the attributes she's about done from the color in her leaves to her buds and trichomes. She's in flush mode this week to prepare for harvest. Stay Growing!! Thank you for stopping by and taking a look it's much appreciated!! Thank you KANNABIA!! KANNABIA.COM SHERBERT DREAM AUTO

Продовжую вести репост і тримати свою крихітку на ріпені. Деякі незрозумілі проблеми з листям, але якщо вірити мудрецям з цього сайту - це через високу температуру, яка останні дні була аномально високою. Опустив горщік нижче, долив води у мій "зволожувач" повітря, сподіваюсь це хоч трошки допоможе. Квіти здаються не дуже плотними, і скоріш за все це тільки моя провина( Але рано про це говорити, вирок буде після повноцінної дегустації стиглих квіточок😋 Тріхоми майже усі мутні, трошки є янтарних. Даю ріпен завтра 04.09 останній раз, далі тільки вода, і харвест. Планую провести харвест на 10 тижні.

Critical x Animal cookies is growing great under the Hortibloom Solux 350. She got a solution change today. She has sone nice frosty colas growing. She is mid bulking now. Every thing is looking good at the moment. Thank you Hortibloom, and Ripper Seeds. 🤜🏻🤛🏻💪🏻❄️🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

So where do I start they are both the same strain but just growing completely different. The first picture is super frost growing strong while the second still seem to be in the beginning of flower stage. We will just keep an eye on it from week to week

Началась 5 неделя роста. Судя по состоянию растения, оно начинает переходить в стадию предцвета.😊 Обильно набирает зелёную массу. 💪 Продолжаю пригибать вырывающиеся вверх ветви.👇 Подключил ещё 60 ватт света.😺 Поднял лампу повыше. 👆 На улице стоит жара.😎 Температура поднимается до 33 градусов по Цельсию.😕

Gut durchgewurzelt. Heute sind sie in ihren finalen 19L Topf mit der BioHanf erde von Sonnenerde eingezogen. Lets Grow.. Training geht los..

Week 11

did not get wet weight on this one but will update dry weight in a few days

Dealing with some deficiencies but still looking okay

She’s a lovely girl just rewatched her growth sport zone and hoping in a few days she starts her pre stretch! I had to shuffle these girls around in order to suit lighting raises I’ll have to do for the purple punch! Lucky I have 3 adjustable lights ;) I think next week will be assured to be a sea of green so looking forward to training through the scrog! Thanks for stopping by buddies, feel free to hit that like button as it’s free 😉 thank you in advance.

Last watering before harvest, I'm planning on chopping her down Wednesday! Buds looks so full and smells wonderful! Very excited to harvest this strain

they look solid. must say. the pace vs what i we have in the autoflower tent.. these look promising. came out the gate strong. enjoy the vid for all the diaries. i got blackberry this week so i will use them for the AUTO grow in our unit. cheers. good luck to everyone and have a great weekend.
