***Mar 28 Had to redo the reservoir a day early, she is drinking way too fast. I am going to need to make sure to top up the water level every single day now, to prevent it from drying out so fast (2 days, and its half empty!!!) I took away the Root Farms Base and doubled basically everything else. I did this because I feel like the stretch is finished, so I wanted to remove some of the nitrogen. PPM is at 2100 and Ph is at 6. She's starting to get little nugs! Not much of an ambient air smell yet, but the stem rub is very fragrant. The smell reminds me of a warm summer day by the pool, the smell of the fresh air mixed with bright flowers and lemon cut grass. A very beautiful, light, and energetic smell. Can't wait for it to finish, and wondering how the smell will evolve as flower continues. Did a root trim today as well, because it was getting a little crowded in the reservoir, now we are nice and tidy! (Hopefully wont need to do another until the end of flower but we will wait and see how it goes lol). She's filling out the tent a lot, I would say she at least doubled in size since the beginning of flower. ***Mar 30 No sign in trichomes yet, but she's starting to bulk up a little bit! Mostly just the top sites are bulking, but there is some development on some of the upper inner branches as well. ***Mar 31 2 full cups of water added to the reservoir today...! ._. Also down from 2100 to 1800 PPM, like what? I cannot get it to slow down, and I am almost worried I am not giving it enough, but, I mean, it's growing incredibly fast. Just from yesterday to today, the pistils are POPPING like mad, and I even had to do some leaf tucking (and take the top 2 fan leaves covering the inside, it's been a while since I've needed to do that!) All I can do is wait and monitor the PPM, and if it gets too close to 1000 before monday, I will add more nutes. She really acts like the more I give, the more she uses 😅 What an impressive strain. ***April 2 Topped up the reservoir, and made sure PPM and Ph were alright (1600ppm and 6.1ph). It almost looks like it stretched over night, and I had to raise the light up (it went from over 700-1000ppfd for the branches and tops, respectively, to around 500-700). I was going to add more nutrients, but it seems okay at 1600 for now, and now that it wont be getting such intense light, it wont be forced to drink more. I ended up cleaning out some more leafage around some over-layering spots, and also some inner nodes that weren't going to develop into anything other than shake. Got some close ups of the inner nodes, and a quick video showing the layout of the plant! It's amazing how big it's getting, it's already taking up the whole tent, and its only been 2 1/2 weeks since I threw her into flower! 😂 💪😁👌

Moved grow to attic. Had problems with temperature, however installed a heater and now she is doing better. Broken plant while bending. Hopefully she recovers and does not stress.

ok so everything has gone fantastic , no nutrient burns at all , and have been slowly creeping up the base nutrients , i have stopped the cal mag and now adding house and gardens bud XL at full strength these girls are now in full swing of flower the Cal mag has made absolutely no difference too the yellow colour of this blackberry so I suspect it is just how this strain is as meany diary's on here of the same strain are also on the yellow side , but it's certainly not affecting the speed of the growth of her , i also bought a new ph stick this week , i have found when PHing the feed bucket that its best too have air stones in the bucket , add all nuts and then ph but do not use the feed that day as if you check the next day the ph is off again so i left it 24 hours after i add more ph down , and it seems too make the measurements alot easier and stable , i have bent down the main stems " without damaging them onto my netting too A keep the canopy all the same high so my lighting is covering all plants at the same distance and also it allowed the side stems too reach up too , i also was sponsored another new led light by kingbo this week so have added another 600watt led too the grow , so now have two 600's and one 900watt , and temps are still fine sitting at 24c lights on and 19-20 off , so am pleased with that , I accidentally bend the main stem last week while I was putting them under the netting too try and control the stretch , luckily it did not crack or snap the branch at all and she didn't droop on that branch at all and has healed already , it may or may not be related but as soon as it happened the side branches thickened up too the thickness of the main stem , this plant has over taken the rest in size even being a full week too 15 days younger , it's certainly not ideal but it really does not appear too have slowed down the growth and may well go in my favour , this lady really did stretch out from week 4 into 5 and is showing no sign of slowing down , her side branches are very thick almost as thick as the main stem , her leaf production was minimal and I have only had too remove very few too expose the bud sites , the yellowing seems too be recovering now and most of the plant is green now , Update , Now gone a lush green colour instead of that horrible yellow , and the buds have already started too purple , she has also stepped up a gear with her nutrient intake almost drinking 6 pints since Thursday , She seems too have slowed down on the stretch and has so meany bud site scattered all over her with as the diary name suggests black roses everywhere , and note too any seed banks reading this if there is not a purple stain out there already called black rose now is your chance lol and Iwant a sample pack first kinda like the tester :) Now defoliation , as you can see they really didn't seem too mind at all being stripped and within a couple of days they had all replenished the lost leaves and even this week olive had to pull the odd few off as they have grown out , Method , well all info now is simple , Anything I cannot tuck under something that is blocking a bid site with shade I remove too middle or bottom , Everything else stays , I just stand above the plant and pull off anything covering the sites , it's really as simple as that , I see some strip them until there is nothing left on but a few sugar leaves , but for me didn't like the look of the plants , for me the growing process is just as much fun as the fruits ,

Week 6 marks the exciting flowering stage for ztraberrizzzz I've been using Low-Stress Training (LST) techniques, gently bending branches down and securing them with soft ties to create an even canopy. This promotes lateral growth and allows lower buds to thrive. I've also practiced careful defoliation, removing larger fan leaves to improve airflow and light penetration to the budding sites. Monitoring their response is key, and I love seeing the plants adapt and grow stronger. Sticking to the Canne Terra feeding schedule has yielded great results—thick stems, lush foliage, and a delightful sweet aroma emerging. I’m eager to see the buds develop in the coming weeks. Here’s to an exciting journey ahead in the garden!

La planta aun está en pleno estirón del inicio de la floración, por lo que tengo que ir cropeandola casi a diario para mantener una altura homogénea en las ramas y que no se estire demasiado. Están comenzando a formarse los primeros brotes, aun no tiene un olor intenso pero ya huele a haze y eso es maravilloso... aun le quedan meses de floración pero ya tengo ganas de fumarmela.

Hello again, GrowDiaries family! 😎 We’ve officially entered Week 10 (4th week of flowering) and the Critical is truly showing her full potential. This week has been all about environmental management and keeping the plant’s metabolism at its peak despite the winter chill. 📏 Precision Measurements & Training -Height: Steady at 37 cm. Vertical growth has stopped as she focuses all her energy on flower production. -Canopy Management: The LST has done a great job. The canopy is perfectly flat, ensuring that every "pompom" gets the same light intensity. -Visual Check: I’ve taken the plant out of the tent for some photos under white light to show the real progress of the trichomes without the LED distortion. 🌡️ Environment & Climate Challenges -Temperature: We’ve faced some tricky nights at 12°C, reaching 27°C during the day. -The Strategy: To prevent the plant from stalling due to the cold nights, I’ve started watering with lukewarm water. This keeps the root zone active and ensures nutrients are still being absorbed effectively. -Humidity (RH): Stable at 40-45%, ideal for keeping the developing buds safe and dry. 💧 Watering & Organic Pest Control -Nutrient Strategy: Still going strong with the full Biobizz schedule (Bio-Grow 1ml, Bio-Bloom 2ml, and Top-Max 1ml) in 1L of water. She is responding beautifully with no signs of overfeeding. -The Cinnamon Trick: 🛡️ I noticed some fungus gnats last week, so I applied a generous layer of ground cinnamon on the soil surface. It’s an old-school, 100% organic remedy that acts as a natural fungicide. Result: The gnats are completely gone! 🌿 Flower & Resin Evolution -The sugar has arrived! ❄️ Resin is now heavily coating the sugar leaves and the buds are thickening up fast. The white pistils are abundant and healthy. The aroma is becoming much more complex and penetrating! Thanks for the comments and for following this grow! Happy growing to all.😉👍

Sticky Broccoli Auto – Week 8 Update (Week 4 Flower) Overall Plant Status Week 4 of flower and things are… interesting. All 4 plants are showing excellent health overall—no visible deficiencies, strong color, and vigorous growth. However, there are some growth irregularities across the canopy. • Bud structure is developing oddly and slower than expected • One plant (back left) is showing re-veg–like traits • Another (back right) is absolutely dumping trichomes early • Front two plants appear the most “normal,” but still not bulking heavily yet Despite being labeled an 8–9 week auto, this run is clearly trending longer. Estimated finish now looks closer to 11–13 weeks, likely leaning toward the longer end. ⸻ Environment & Light Notes • UV was being applied but has now been turned OFF (3/15) to rule out stress-related responses • Light schedule unchanged otherwise • Feeding timing: • Auto irrigation ~30 min after lights on (2:30 AM) • Secondary feed mid-day (~1:30–4 PM) Observation: The re-veg–like growth (3-finger leaves, excessive leafy growth) is unusual for autos but can be triggered by: • Spectrum imbalance (UV/IR stress) • Genetic instability (more likely with some autos) • Environmental stress (though unlikely here given overall health) ⸻ Watering & Nutrients General Range This Week: • PPM: 860 → 1200 • pH: 5.7 – 5.9 • Runoff: 0% → 20% depending on day ⸻ 3/11 • 4 gallons total • Split feeding (AM + PM) • Minimal runoff initially, slight runoff later • 1200 PPM / 5.8 pH Per gallon: • .5ml Silicium Bloom • 2ml MagCal • 5ml Cocos A • 15ml Cocos B • 4ml Pure Zym • 3ml Green Sensation • 2ml Power Buds • 5ml Ruby Fulvic • 5ml Photosynthesis Plus ⸻ 3/12 • 4 gallons total • ~20% runoff achieved • Plants evened out in height • 1000 PPM / 5.8 pH (Same mix minus Photosynthesis Plus) ⸻ 3/13 • Split feeding again (AM + PM) • ~15% runoff • 1000 PPM / 5.7 pH (Photosynthesis Plus reintroduced) ⸻ 3/14 • Light defoliation + lower branch cleanup • ~15% runoff • 860 PPM / 5.8 pH ⸻ 3/15 • No feed • Observed abnormalities: • Back left plant showing re-veg–like growth (3-finger leaves, excessive foliage) • Back right plant heavily coated in trichomes • Front plants stable but slow to bulk • Action taken: UV turned OFF to troubleshoot ⸻ 3/16 • 4 gallons total • 10–15% runoff • 947 PPM / 5.9 pH Mixing order adjusted: • Silicium Bloom → MagCal → Green Sensation → Base nutrients → additives ⸻ 3/17 • 4 gallons total • Initial 0.5 gal per plant (low runoff) • Second feeding planned later • 940 PPM / 5.9 pH ⸻ Plant-Specific Observations Back Left Plant (Problem Child) • Throwing 3-finger leaves • Excessive leafy growth vs bud formation • Appears to be in a partial re-veg expression • Most likely cause: genetics or light spectrum sensitivity (UV suspect) Back Right Plant • Frost monster • Heavy trichome production early • Slightly behind on bulk but resin production is top tier Front Two Plants • Most stable phenotype • Normal structure • Slightly slow bulking but otherwise on track ⸻ Next Week Game Plan (Week 5 Flower) • Monitor re-veg plant for normalization after removing UV • Maintain: • 900–1000 PPM • 5.8–5.9 pH • Watch for: • Bud set transition → bulk phase • Consider: • Slight increase in PK (Green Sensation / Power Buds) if bulking still lags by end of Week 5
