Good evening!! Cutting it close with my pictures here!! As you can see I have staked and trellises the plants, I may just need to tighten the trellis up alil... But that's for tomorrow... Or later lol... This plant definitely outgrew her companion Bananuims but let's see the pudding

Fluster over and back to happy. Day 8 of flower. Quite exited for these, I have to say. Regardless of the competition, getting to grow this strain is satisfaction alone, @Totemic strains are better than the most expensive out there ☝ Just my opinion based on what I’ve grown

It's a week later in the flowering tent for The One and I have raised her up to get more of them photon goodness. Are you pleased now, @CreX? Do you notice me Senpai!? Watashi ga tsumi o okashitanode, senpai o yurushitekudasai!!! Ahem.. anyways.. I have not fed her anything more since her last watering when I put her into the flower tent, that being "Growing" as per the Terra Aquatica feeding chart, which is 1.8ml/L Gro, 1.2ml/L Micro, and 0.6ml/L Bloom. I am sure now that she is closer to the light she will get a bit more hungry. Next feeding will then begin with the "Preflower" as per the feeding chart to start preparing her for the preflower stage. Here are the pics

I always use a wetting agent when I spray, only exception is when I spray cuttings. Im not too strict with ipm to be honest, I find I don't need to be and its more preventative. I've found what works for me. Once a week or every 2nd week for the AQ sf as preventative. If you have an infestation, if it'd in veg then use sulfur. If I'm flower then AQ sf at a higher dose, I think 20 to 25ml per L and 2 to 3 times a week and when it's under control then weekly. Sent from my Redmi Note 7 Pro using Tapatalk

Day 2 of Week 10 Update They got 1 liter 1/3/2/4 (Grow/Bloom/Top Max/Bio Heaven, still from the same bucket) Plus I had Upload issues yesterday.. or thought I have, just took a bit. Video Flower till 10 July.. I cut the 12 hours dark time out, so the jumps you see are those cuts. I will also not use the work tent for time laps videos again, just to often you bump the cams, what isn't helping. If I ever do that stunt again, I run it in a separate tent, like I did with the Royal Gorilla's. I had to run the video over 2 projects o speed them up enough. Running 6 times as fast as usual. 1995664479_10July.mp4

July 10 - 1 week post-flip Left to right - 2, 1, 3. Ladies got watered with a light dose bloom and microbes. Applied buddi all rounder spray yesterday and that will be the last application. 20210710_203352_1_1.mp4 You might notice the ladies got new shoes found some of those plant stands at Cape Garden Centre. not comp related but if you're wondering how the clones are going? We have life!

It's an auto don't mess with trying to separate them , you will stunt them if they survive. Leaving both one will always out grow the other one so i recommend just cutting the smaller one away and just leave the stronger one

A few last pics , huge rains coming Monday night so the plants coming down Monday before it starts

Update: Week 2 of flower I moved to larger pots and did a bit of cleanup of the leaves. The two remaining plants are looking good, most of the signs of nutrient deficiency are sorted now. Its pretty cold at night though at times, which is not ideal. But I'm happy enough with how they are doing so I'm not going to worry about that too much for now. I've started using the GHE FloroCoco ferts. Its a bit too soon to tell, but lets see how they do. However after figuring out what was going on with the hortimix I've also noticed a big improvement with my mother/clone plants. As @CreX says above the GHE is a lot more expensive than hortimix. I'll also only be using it during flower and after I have an idea of how far its going to go I'll decide if I'm going to stick with it. Perhaps only use it for special grows. I'm wanting to to a perpetual grow so I'm concerned it may end up being unnecessarily expensive. But we shall see. (I'll use a ruler in the next photos. hard to judge scale here)

First taproot after about 34hrs..

So first watering today #1 recovered wonderful and is back in the lead #3 is being a runt again, seems like whatever burned those tips are still holding her back. Two more were harvested to make space. A banana monkey is really catching my nose and going to try a reveg from the popcorn left

I just don't know if Conner's body can keep up anymore. These lower leg breaks, famed by Anderson Silva initially, from checking or performing lower leg kicks are starting to become good signifiers of one's end of career in UFC. I haven't seen someone really come back that strong when things like this start happening to them. I think Conner should but on some boxing gloves and go make a couple million dollars slapping a YouTuber around or something rather, cash in the money and be a family man, or couch up another Irish fighter back home and bring him to the UFC.

Eve of day 6 12/12.. No real sign of flower yet.

Just finished watching it all now. The entire event was a bit mediocre and the most exciting fight was with Dricus, I was absolutely stoked he got the knockout. Definitely puts South African MMA on the map, about goddam time. At least Dricus will be better paid in comparison to other fighters seeing as he can convert those sweet Dollars to Rands seeing as he still lives in the motherland Otherwise I got most of my bets wrong. Wonderboy and Yana being the highlight losses for me. Irene has made a fan of me and I'll be following her on her next fight, and we'll see what happens with Wonderboy. Gilbert Burns just came out of a jiu jitsu win at Who's Number One right before fighting Wonderboy so major props to Burns. I will change my tune on O'Malley, he's matured since I last checked him so I will give him that. He turned Moutinho's face into road kill. Edit: Forgot about Ryan Hall. What the hell he thinks doing the same Imanari Roll over and over, it's like he didn't even practice stand-up at all, unless he was trying to pull off a show or something. Kinda bleak about this one. Then lastly, fuck Conner, fuck his mother and everything the dirty pikey stands for. Good on Poirier, he has every right to find Conner in the street and break his other ankle for the shit Conner said post-match. I think they should setup Conner against Nate Diaz and get the two most washed-up fighters to end each other's careers for good.

Thanks for the advice! I’ll probably give it a day or two then snip the smaller of the two. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

hahah awesome man! yeah twins happen quite often, no stress you just choose the stronger one. don't pull the one you don't want out, might damage the roots of the other one. snip it where it comes out the jiffy pellet.

its been a few days since the spray and it still smells kinda sulphury... but not over powering. also not pm which is cool. i have had good success with 3 products now for pm AQSF BioSulfur CopperSoap

That's me!!!

Weekend update. I performed a little bit more defoliation of the lower parts and did a little training to spread out a bit.

Alright! Good evening ladies and gents! On to the next phase of our journey!!! Where the magic happens!!! Where the glory shall be found and our hopes and dreams dashed or made splendid.... Welcome....to the flowering chambers As you can see... These teeny tots are a bit smaller than my usual bunch hehe but they will do really great because I have given them their own 240w of light, tomorrow night I will be adding the stakes and trellis for the final touches to my growing methods. We have the two Tortoni in there, in the middle and front, and at the back we have two Bananuim plants. I will also be taking cuts of everything tomorrow night... You know... Just in case

Greetings all I've read of so called autos that are actually fast flower, still needing 16/8 to actually induce flower. I would really like to try my hand at a true auto that i can run 24hrs lights on. Anyone have experience with true autos? Would really appreciate your advice on breeders and strains. Sent from my VOG-L09 using Tapatalk

Some genetics just foxtail at the end and that bud looks really close to the end

You'd get it more from lights being too close or too hot, room too hot, or extremely bad air flow. Spraying something on the pistols, that stops growth on the bud, and must push next to that now So not a bad light or bulb / globe.

Is foxtail, slightly. Some strains do that, yours looks far enough in to be okay.

I do believe any auto left on 24hrs light schedule will not flower I've seen some growers actually do this to keep an auto mother plant and then grow out the cuttings as one would a standard auto. One way of keeping a fire auto strain in your stable.

Some of the youngans are crowding each other.. So got some bends to give them some space..

Don't stress bud , yes they a bit worse for ware but those are not even close to not making it . They will recover fast . Never spray in direct light be it under growlights or sun , you want the plant to fully dry before being exposed to light again

Nicely done brother

didn't notice the auto part at first, I agree with GLO. ☝

if you wanted to keep both, you can, but they might compete, not sure. if you wana seperate them you going to have to wait till they big and strong enough to handle the surgery. will be easy though, clean the roots as gentle as possible and try not damaging even one root, shake the rest of the soil off while slightly tugging on them and they will come loose. don't just rip them apart hahah

these are all good for IPM and contact treatments for pm too? I got aqsf, copper soap and neem, then keep a small bottle of pyrol for contact treatments. I find the neem acts as a mild foliar feed when used right, leaves seem to gain colour and perk up a bit, aswell it will help keep thrips and mites at bay. I have yet to see a bug infestation on my indoor garden, so the pyrol has only been used outside on my citrus trees and some viburnum shrubs that had a few wooly aphids. Aaaaanyway, brother your plants are all looking sexy I already you gona still give us a good show with the one you selected

Dricus!

Sorry for the short clip.... copywrite .... no remasters allowed while relaxing and smoking phat with a few m8's

Update - Defol done and net in. No feeding this week

Group photo, Been getting de chlorinated water, with EM and Biodyne 401 on every second water. Gave a small shot, 1.2 or 1.3ml of Biobizz Fish, to a 5L water on the first watering, when they got potted, to start the ball rolling, as I had recycled my old soil from the previous run, and it had dried out between plants. Otherwise they are happy and will not add anything more, and wait for them to get new pots and fresh soil. Then they will need nothing but water and Microbes again. Critical is okay, just had a bad recovery from Surgery after being birthed upside down. Some clones too in the pic,

Gorgeous Sexy Bitches Right There

And another one from the "Italian Icecream" ^^ I let those clones grow without any attention.. just the fertilizer doing its trick.. and not me fucking up results with bad training. OK, i had to put a support in each.. or they would all lay flat on the ground

Day 1 of Week 10 Update.. yep.. double digits I would have harvested the Gelato Autoflowers.. last week Still heavy from last feeding. Tarryn Sisa

Week 7 Update / Flower Week 1 All the ladies are doing well and they're busy pushing out their new green shoots so there is not too much to report on. I would like to share something that I've learnt the hard way though. For a week or 2 now these plants have had me scratching my head. They were starting to show signs of deficiencies that I couldn't explain. I changed my res, my PH wasn't the problem, temp wise I've sort of got it under control by having my lights on during the night so I couldn't understand what was happening and it was giving me sleepless nights . I eventually had a look at my ventilation set up and I realised that my intake was coming in from the top and my exhaust, or link to my other tent, is going out from the bottom. I swapped that around and in a matter of hours the plants started to get their colour back and slowly the deficiencies started diminishing, they're still getting there but a big swing for the better. I was shocked at what a big impact an incorrect air flow could have. Even though there was ventilation, just having it set up wrong caused havoc. Had to share, maybe someone could make use of my lesson learnt.. I also added a submersible heater to my res to keep those low temps at bay in the root zone. So these are the girls as they are now: Heater added:

Well its been a minute... Still have these strains around and just about to finish up the next flowering run. The Choc Kush have been good to me for the last few runs and a very decent yielder. I have a very big liking for the DSS and KB7 and they will be around for a few more runs. I have not been able to take pictures as usual but will upload some that is available. I will also try to be a bit more proactive on my grow dairies. I have been doing my own soil but it seems to be a bit light when it comes to flowering but I have been giving it some attention and hopefully the next few runs will be better with fading starting later on. I have added some new strains to the list and looking for those keepers but mainly looking for the local fire!

Sheet! almost time for another update! just been having some electrical and water issues at home and havent been taking pics. i have taken the decision to terminate the smaller Tortoni as she will just get completely swallowed by the bigger Tortoni and will not yield much, nor do me any justice in this fine competition. cuts have been taken for another go and more veg time for sure! on the plus side, i am already able to determine female sex of my main entry, even though they are all fems, its still good to check! i am now down to one plant for the comp so any fuckups here on out will seriously hamper my chances of a great outcome. i gave the ladies a sulphur spray to make sure the Pm stays at bay. so far it has been quite a smooth ride and i am hoping that my methods and actions keep it that way. this is not my main update, which will include pics

Last day of week 9 ^^ They got 1/3/2/4, each a liter ^^ 1 Grow, 3 Bloom, 2 Top Max, 4 Bio Heaven (ml/L)

Morning growmies out of a freezing Northern Burbs.. The girls are doing awesomely and they have responded well to LST.. I am amazed at how sturdy their stems have become..

Very carefully. Bare rooted the seedling at about 3 weeks and planted on the , covered with soil in a pot and started praying She recovered and about a month later I planted into the bonsai pot amd slowly started clearing the soil away, week by week. Also kept the roots wrapped with a cloth till they hardened off. From my, very limited, experience, exposed surface roots will harden up and not really hold the plant back.

I am The_StonedTrooper I'm also Proficient, so ya

Questions, and or thoughts... With movie, or even series references, Ill_Evan can be code, for eleven, like in Stranger Things, or not? If he is 11, Eleven, what happened to the first 10 I'm getting FOMO NEO, was chosen, and by my assessment of the situation, 11, Eleven, had no choice, it was made for him (Side note, Sannies has a strain, called "The One" and I have the cross of that, with Killing Fields, which we have aptly called Highlander) I have a strong feeling 11, and his only 1, are going to surprise everyone in this competition

The soft switch deadline has arrived and before I miss it I have then officially flipped The One and made space for her in my already pretty full flower tent! Plans were made and I have found her a space. I did a final little clean up of the lower branches as with this training technique I have found in the past that keeping the lower branches has always resulted in airy buds, so I'd prefer the energy being diverted to the tops. Otherwise, haven't changed much. I will do one more feed at 1ml/L of the Gro/Micro/Bloom and thereafter start with the preflower nutes, say in a week or so. Before After
