During this week the plant start stretching more and more every day at the end of that week reached 76cm,she had a nutrient lock this week but I flushed her with PHed water to clean the soil from salts and unused nutrients ,seems that that worked, also pre-flowering signs shown ,I am going to change on flower nuts next week.

These two were my first tries with autoflowering seeds. I started the seeds directly in their final medium, which is Plagron's Growmix, and the seeds became a plant only in 4 days! They say, this soil has nutrients for the first 3 weeks, but the plants still looking very good in week 6! I only use tapwater, and hopefully, it will be enough for them till the end. To be honest, I'm a bit afraid of nutrients, and as I see in other diaries, it's not really necessery, if you run autos. I also don't do any training, only hiding some bigger leaves, and maybe some lollipopping at the end.

The veg cycle went well and with out any major issues. Even the the pH was bouncing, she never showed signs of deficiency or stress. It wasnt until flower set in that they got real sensitive to the pH fluctuations and I had to change up some of my nutes to get her back in line but damage was doe that prevented her from swelling up in time before the trichs started to really go amber. Lesson learned, stick to tried and true nutrients and only change up a bit at a time. I have not given up on masterblend nutrients, they veg'd great on it. I will try it again this time with proper pH down instead of the TNB. Once I have processed the trim and larf into dry ice hash, I'll update with more pics and weights of hash. I also feel that heavy defoiling would have helped greatly as well. They both had thick bushy centers and I let Lloyd go more natural and Harry I defoiled some along the way. Harry produced more and nicer quality buds vs no defoil Lloyd. Running a dutch bucket set up for the first time was a big learning curve from using the largest grade perlite to reservoir size to system layout and maintenance. I really enjoyed the overall hands off watering but would recommend going with a much larger reservoir than twice your buckets capacity, milder ec swings and less top offs. Now I am fully impressed with the lighting. I only used 220 watts in a 4x2 tent, yes only 220 watts but still yielded 344g of dried buds or 1.57g/watt plus another 200g of larfy stuff for the hash/edible pile plus a good amount of trim. Never had any heat issues and they just simply put out the PAR like no other for the watts. I have ordered a 3rd qb288 to go in my tent for my next run going on now. Lloyd dried over an 11 day period at a temp range of 64 to 69F with rh 58 to 64%. Harry had a better manicure trim and I removed a lot of small leaf matter from Harry and harry dried out in only 6 days in the same room. Harry is more foxtail sativa in structure vs Lloyd. Smoke report I decided to try not flushing this grow to see how it goes. Being a hydro run, I feed all the way until harvest and the taste is very smooth, not harsh by any means. Very strong culinary herbs and spice flavors with a subtle fruit pie finish (think spiced christmas fruit pies). Absolutely delicious even without a long cure. Aroma is gaining daily and it just gets better. Effect is immediately felt in the cerebral cortex. Very uplifting creative feeling pleasant high. It's great for brain storming, organizing the grow room, and very conversational (I'm more of a resevered person but cant shut up on this). If I had to guess potency, i would put her in the 15 to 20% range. Effects linger for hours but the main rush is done in about 90 to 120 minutes. I would definitely grow again. Made dry ice hash today, hand shredded up 8 oz of larf and 2.5 oz of trim, sifted over a parchment paper lined table. I only have a 73 and 220 bag. 73 or purest yielded 9g, 220 first shake yielded an additional 16g, and 220 2nd shake yielded 30g for a total of 54g of kief

Entering week 9 looking strong!

My second growroom is built and the girls have moved in. This new strain combines two well-received parents, Juanita la Lagrimosa (Spanish for "Juanita the Tearful") and Royal Highness, which are themselves genetic hybrids of other precursor strains: Juanita the Tearful from Queen Mother and a Mexican-Afghan blend; Royal Highness from Dance Hall and Respect 13. On and on the strains date back in agricultural time, each new variety with its own unique smell, taste, color, high and medical benefit. However, in the past decade, a goal of all this tinkering has been what some producers are starting to call “Royal Respect” with the soul of marijuana's benefits going toward both body and mind. Painkiller XL is notable for its near-equal representation of 6 percent tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and 7 percent cannabidiol (CBD), achieved by a seed that's 70 percent sativa and 30 percent indica. While the sativa variety of cannabis is widely known for producing more of a mental, cerebral high, and indica has a reputation for contributing more toward its physical high, other factors are more important to consider: THC is the compound given most of the credit for that head high, with CBD takes the credit for marijuana's many proven medicinal benefits, which range vastly from relieving pain, anxiety, migraines, fibromyalgia and even mad cow disease to easing many of the most deleterious symptoms of AIDS, diabetes, epilepsy and Parkinson's disease. These are just a handful of the dozens of ailments marijuana is being prescribed to combat by doctors across the globe and in more than a dozen U.S. states. Cooperatives at medical marijuana dispensaries have been at the forefront of providing CBD-rich cannabis buds and oils for their patients, who undoubtedly appreciate being able to purchase the strain best-suited to ease their particular ailments. This new strain joins others rich in both CBD and THC like Euphoria, Royal Medic, Medical Mass and Danceworld that seek to actually not necessarily downplay cannabis' psychoactive effects in favor of optimizing its healing role, but instead equalize the two. According to the California-based Steep Hill Cannabis Analysis Laboratory, this equalization brings to the cannabis user not just the physically healing aspects, but also the spiritually and psychologically healing benefits as well. There are other strains with very little THC and more CBD than Painkiller XL , but rare are such splendid balances. Producers of this strain say it produces a considerable amount of pain relief, with a mild, relieving mental euphoria. With a flowering time of eight weeks, the Painkiller XL seed can produce 525 to 575 grams per plant indoors. Inside, the dried yield is 400 to 450 grams per plant. Inside, the plants average in height at about 31.5 inche (80 cm); outside, the average height is about 53 inches (135 cm), with harvest time at the end of September. THC: 9% CBD: 9% Yield Indoor: 500-550gr m2 Yield Outdoor: 500-550 grams per plant dried Height Indoor: 60 - 100 cm Height Outdoor: 120 - 150 cm Flowering time: 8 weeks Harvest month: Late September Genetic background: Juanita la Lagrimosa x Royal Highness Type Sativa: 75%; Indica: 25% Effect: Physical, clear high. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Week 19 Day 7 Now I definetly have realized the importance of right pH-level, my old pH-meter clearly didn't work. The new pH-meter showed 8.1 in my regular tapwater, way too high. So now the buds has started to grow again, they were purple earlier and now since she got water and nutes with right pH-level, the buds are turning back to green. And I also added some more nutes to her menu, 2018-02-03 Added some pics of the grow room after I cleaned the floor and putting the girls back in, and also added a video of the reality of a grower having some problems with too high pH-level. Since I'm still a novice growing cannabis I learn new things everyday, and hopefully the next round will be more or less perfect - perfection needs practice.

Friday is Highday… One Week to go Here are some expressions of my Grow. Except the drying I think there’s nothing that could go wrong now. This Week I only pour water to the plant. The next days no more water for the lady’s so they absorb the last nutrients from the soil Nice Weekend 👌🏻 ElGrowLab🍀

Getting really bushy about 18 inches tall going in this week might be the last week of veg if they keep growing how they are. These girls are getting wide as hell. Will move one of them over to avoid over crowding in the middle next change out of nutrients. They're appetite is getting big

Para ser la primera vez que cultivo no puedo quejarme, pero si alguien me pudiese ayudar

Die Pandora legt allmählich an Dichte zu und die Buds werden immer kompakter. Im Schnitt performed die Pflanze etwas besser als die Skywalker OG Auto. Es sieht auch so aus als würde die Pflanze etwas mehr Gewicht entwickeln. Dafür benötigt sie insgesamt länger als ihre Kollegin.

Started the week with some Low Stress Training and continued to add and rearrange the ties throughout the week. There are a handful of reasons to LST your plants but the main reason should be to train the plant to grow with an even canopy when flowering. If you were to just grow your plant without any training, the plant would typically grow like a Christmas tree where the star would be your main top cola and have smaller buds (larf) on the bottom 3/4 of the plant. When trained correctly and achieving an even canopy will produce multiple large colas across an even canopy allowing as many colas (bud sites) as possible to be the same height from the light source. The Pineapple grew quickly which made the LST very easy and it worked out great in the end. The Purple was not growing so good and that was disappointing considering the other Purple that was growing in the other space grew very nice, similar to the Pineapple. Getting a runt / mutant is more common than one would think. At this point Feed was every other day and 3ml in 3L Ph between 6 - 6.1 *This week switched both SF2000 lights on and was having heat issues which didn't get corrected till late in the week.

I managed to harvest a while ago i just never got round to update this diary i had to deal with an unexpected surgery and not being well and family life. I got about 6 oz roughly when all dried i didn't weigh it as it wasn't for sale. The pictures are of what i have left but they turned out beautiful. The plants never really gave me any problems they was nice and easy for me and id definitely grow them again. I got 2 phenotype one was short fat and frosty as death with small purple bits and the others was mostly brighter green frosty and hardly any purple but both are delicious. Thanks to anyone who had a look sorry for such a long update to this diary take it easy people keep growing as much as we can the world is in a mess outside

Every fine so far

I 100% believe this plant only turned out so great was because I added big bud from advanced nutrients this run. I love the stuff I will probably start tring out there other products when I need to replace nutrients as I run out of what I have What a week. It’s been hotter here than in Miami Florida what’s going on with the world it’s broken. Well it’s ok drying buds when the ac blasting is always perfcet

Quite a sad run to be honest, but it's all due to bad decisions on my side. I decided to top her and even though she seemed to take it well, it might have triggered something. She also was a stretcher with such a large inter-nodal space that I didn't find necessary to defoliate anything and I didn't remove any budsites. The result was a ton of small popcorn buds. And to not help, I waited way too long before giving her nutes, thinking I could do all the run without using any but even when I started giving her some, the schedule was close to being improvised. I would normally have given her more time to flower but a space problem in the tent caused me to chop her down prematurely, still with a majority of cloudy trichomes and some amber ones. I would definitely redo some stuff but she still outputted some very decent flowers, effect and taste wise because let's be real, they look terrible, almost like seaweed. I'd love to retry this strain.

Day 22 22/07/24 Monday Nothing new to report. Starting to see them beautiful fans appear that's all 😁✌️ Day 23 23/07/24 Tuesday Feed today, giving her straight all nutes Inc flowering nutes. I will update the dose as they grow and develop a bigger hunger. Video updates 💚 Day 24 24/07/24 Wednesday She was doing a climb, so I have topped her today 😁 she's strong I'm sure she will recover well 🤞 Day 26 26/07/24 Friday Plain de-chlorinated tap water pH 6 today, 1L. Day 28 28/07/24 Sunday Feed today with De-chlorinated tap water pH 6. She is showing recovery from topping now.

Chopped one already. These 5 are finishing.

Been a while since updated this gyal Just Sized her up to 20L , the previous wasn't enough Going to let her settle in for a week or two maybe train her a little more too 👀, hopefully I will be able to afford a new light by then 🤧

6/8 Haven't had to water yet (besides the two tens and I should've held off). It's an overcast day. Perfect for the plants. I've noticed more off shoots of 3 pronged leaves so a few plants will reveg but thats fine. I'm happy with how things are going thus far. These are certainly very resilient strains. I've done some SLIGHT LSTing. EDIT: IT'S BEEN A NICE DAY TODAY. A LITTLE OVERCAST BUT SUNNY AT TIMES. PERFECT WEATHER FOR THE GIRLS. THEY ARE LOVING IT OUT THERE! 6/9 And the girls are lookin' Fiiiiiine. In all seriousness everything is doing pretty good. Even that overwatered pink kush runt in the 10gal is coming out of its little funk. Some of my FIM's turned out amazing! With the reveg of some of these I'll definately have my hands full. Very grateful for smart pots and well draining soil! We've gotten some harsh rain but the girls all seem fine. It's the wind today that's a little worrisome. I may stop over later. I COULD put up tarps around the cage as wind blocks (and have before in the past) but it increases the humidity of an already extremely humid day. These girls are strong. I'm sure they'll be fine. I've found that the tarps typically hurt worse than they help. 6/10 56° at 9am. Shook the plants off. Medium wasn't soaked though. Luckily we had some wind. It's not raining now but it's going to have showers for half the day. Tomorrow is supposed to be in the 80's and sunshine so if that comes through things might workout alright. I still haven't had to water this year besides that one gallon on the tens. If I do something I'll update. I'm considering light stepping the two pink kush's in the 10's. I'll need to do more research. 6/11 BEAUTIFUL DAY! Windy too which helped dry the grow bags. Plants are growing at a rapid rate. I've yet to have to water. A few more days like this and I'll have too. It was in the 80's and is still 75 at 5:30. Bags still have heft to them and I can still feel moisture. They got tons of rain. I'll keep an eye on them. Thus far I'm pleasantly surprised (knock on wood). 6/12 Everything looked great this morning. It's a little overcast and 69° @ 8:45. I mixed water planning on watering but decided against it due to the weight I was feeling. My wife said it rained hard last night for a little while but the topsoil was dry. It did look disturbed though. Luke it got PELTED with rain. The medium looks dry but there is still some weight to the grow . I'll be back over later and I'll check things out. Overall plants have made a great transition even in this bi-polar weather extravaganza. EDIT: WENT BACK OVER AT NOON AND EVERYTHING WAS LOOKING WONDERFUL. ITS 80° AND SUNNY WITH A STRONG WIND. THAT'S WHY I FIGURED THE PLANTS WOULD NEED TO BE WATERED. APPARENTLY THOSE THUNDERSTOTMS WITH SHEET RAIN HAVE KEPT THEM WATERED. AS PREDICTED THE TWO 10GAL POTS AT THE FRONT OF THE CAGE WERE A LITTLE LIGHT AND THE TOPSOIL WAS REAL DRY. MY MK ULTRA IN THE 30GAL LOOKED LIKE IT COULD USE SOME WATER AS WELL AND I FINALLY GAVE SOME TO THE 10TH PLANET IN THE FRONT ROW. BOTH THOSE PLANTS WERE BIGGER THAN THE REST AT TRANSPLANT AND IN A SLIGHTLY LARGER CONTAINER. THE FRONT ROW SEEMS TO DRY OUT FASTER FOR SOME REASON. I HAD 3 GALLONS MIXED UP TO START WATERING BUT AFTER CHECKING EVERYTHING ELSE I DECIDED TO GIVE THE FRONT ROW (THE ONLY ONES THAT WERE LIGHTER) A LITTLE WATER. I USED TWO GALLONS FOCUSING ON THE KUSH'S IN THE 2 10'S. THIS WAS MY WAY OF MEETING IT IN THE MIDDLE. IVE LOOKED AT PREVIOUS DIARIES AND I THINK I MADE THE RIGHT DECISION. NO RAIN IN THE FORECAST FOR A WHILE. I NEED TO REMIND MYSELF THAT PLANTS THIS SIZE USE MUCH LESS WATER THAN WHEN THE BAG IS ALL ROOTS. 6/13 It's windy as hell! I would've thought that the bags would be dried out by now! I went around and it seemed like they still had weight. It was also cold last night and is 63° and sunny at 11am. It's not getting any hotter. I DID water the two plants in the back row as they seemed a LITTLE lighter than the others. I split a gallon between those two and didnt water the rest. I figured I'll let tje wind dry them out some more. I know what they feel like when they are totally dry. I don't want to get to that point but it's easier to fix than over watering. I'll update later today. EDIT: I FORGOT MY PHONE BUT I USED ANOTHER TO TAKE A VIDEO BYTCI CANT ADD IT. PLANTS STILL HAD SOME HEFT BUT WERE LIGHTER THAN EARLIER. I DECIDED TO WATER AFTER A PRETTY THOUROUGH ANALYSIS. I GAVE EACH PLANT A HALF GALLON EXCEPT THE 50GAL WHICH I ABSTAINED. WIND IS STILL HIGH. I even got on my laptop to try to add a video but it won't allow me to do it here EITHER. Come on grow diaries. Up your game. 6/14 GROW DIARIES STILL WONT ALLOW PICTURES OR VIDEOS. TRIED MY LAPTOP BUT STILL NO DICE. Weather has been sunny but in the 60's. I'm glad I watered. I can tell the plants liked it. Everything looks amazing 10th planet 2 in the second row is getting massive. I noticed something with the pink kush in the middle of the back.i originally FIMed it but I didn't think it took so I fimmed it again a little later on. Go8ng through the plants I found that there's a point that has like three tops on it but the thick stalk continues up and there are FOUR or FIVE more TOPS!!! I've never seen anything like this! I'm interested to see how this one turns out. Man I wanted to put some pictures up. Everything is doing so good. Maybe when I start a new week it will let me. I need to start low stress training and I need to put up trellises. Plants have also survived sustained high winds. EDIT: WENT OVER AT 5PM AND WATERED THE TWO TENS WITH A HALF GALLON EACH. THE OTHERS "LOOK" REALLY DRY BUT I ADDED MORE SOIL TO THE BAGS A COUPLE DAYS AFTER TRANSPLANT (A WHILE AGO. DONT KNOW IF THAT HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH IT. I ASSUME ITS THAT THE PLANTS HAVENT FULLY FILLED THE BAGS AND THUS TAKE LONGER TO DRY OUT. I PLAN TO CHECK WEATHER (NO RAIN UNLESS ITS CHANGED) AND WILL WATER EVERYTHING TOMORROW. STILL CANT ADD PHOTOS. PR9BABLY WONT BE ABLE TO START A NEWXWEEK EITHER TOMORROW. I HAVE A BUNCH OF GREAT PICS. OH AND IN ONE BAG I SAW WHAT LOOKED LIKE CORYLEDON LEAVES. I PULLED IT OUT AND IT WAS LIKE A TUBER. I DUG DOWN AT THE EDGE OF THE GROW BAGCWND WHETE THEY HAD BROKE SURFACE AND PULLED THEM OUT. ITS FUCKING BIRD SEED. I SAW THE BITCH THAT MOWS THE LAWN MOWING INTO MY CAGE. I'LL BE SPEAKING WITH HER. LUCKILY I KEEP A GOOD EYE ON KY PLANTS. PLANTS THAT WRRE SHOOTING OFF 3 PRONGED LEAVES SEEM TO BE REVERTING BACK. IF THERE WAS REVEG IT IS CERTAINLY NOT HURTIMG ANYTHING. CANT WAIT TO SHOW HOW THE GIRLS HAVE GROWN!

I haven’t done enough study before I started, so at the beginning I used to water the plant way more than it needed to and he almost died.
