Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. This is my second cultivation ever and it will be fun to try a bigger space than my closet grow. First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom. I put some pictures on the construction here in week one. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of ​​3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable theme in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 8 pcs 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. But there are no cultivation rooms to be displayed here, so I continue with what is most important. Today I have put my seeds in my moisture dome and hope the seeds have germinated within a few days. I am very excited to see how the new growroom will work and how this Blue cheese Auto from Royal queen seeds will turn out. Blue Cheese automatic cannabis seeds are a cross of Blueberry Automatic and Cheese Automatic that has been perfected over five years of breeding and careful selection. The result is a feminized, autoflowering strain with superior yield, flavor, and effects to either of its distinguished parent strains. THC: 16% CBD: Low Yield Indoor : 325 - 375 gr/m2 Yield Outdoor: 60 - 110 gr/plant Height Indoor: 40 - 70 cm Height Outdoor: 60 - 110 cm Flowering: 7 - 8 weeks Harvest month: 9-10 weeks after planting Genetic Background: Blueberry x Cheese x Ruderalis Type: Sa 35% In 40% Ru 25% Effect: Cerebral and uplifting Climate: Mild .............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. Update 2017-08-15. All 4 seeds have germinated and planted in small pots inside the humidity dome. I'm so glad it worked so well and now it's just hoping they'll start growing and become 4 big healthy girls :) ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Update 2017-08-16. I have mixed my own soil today. Its 40% sieved peat harrow H2-H4 0-30 mm, 45% sieved peat harrow H4-H6 0-30 mm. 5% sand and 10% of compost soil. And i use 15% of perilite and mix it all together. ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ Update 2017-08.20. Nr1 and 2 grow and thrive. Number 3 just got rid of the seedpod and is folding out the sheets. Number 4 is a bit shy and can only be seen if you look carefully into the soil. ......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Update 2017-08-21. Nr 1 and 2 is doing well. Nr3 is trying to catch up and Nr4 is still shy. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-23. Transplanted 2 girls from humidity dome and the small germinating pots to 15 liter autopots. The other 2 girls have to wait a little more before transplant to the autopots. ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ 2017-08-27. The girls have settled in to there new home of the 15 liters autopot after a little transplant chock. Now the real week 1 starts for me and the girls. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-28. New pic and movies. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-28. Nr3 is transplanted in 15 liter autopot. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-29. New movie of the girls. Its no water for 3 days now for Nr1 and 2 so the roots develop more and match the plant above the soil. The temp controlled fan is awesome, its easy to set what temp you like to have in the room. Right now its 28 celcius. And humidity is 56%. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2017-08-29. Hello to you who read my diary, I just want to say that I am pleased that you have chosen to check in with me and in my diary. I just want to say that I do this for myself and for a steady flow of my medicine. Everything you read and see in my diary is 100% honest and I will never distort or beautify anything here. I document my crops so that I can learn from my mistakes and also to look back at those different crops. I try to update with pictures every day and with text if something special has happened in the garden. This is my strainhunt for the best medicine and the beginning of my journey with cannabis and the cultivation of it. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-30. Cleaned the room this morning, just vacuuming and cleaning with chlorine solution. Im testing the fan to control temp and humidity, it works great. Added some pics with measurements and movie. Everything is looking great right now. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-31. New pics and videos. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-01. New pics and videos. Gave each of the girls with 2 ml Alg-A-Mic, 4ml Bio-Grow, 4ml Bio-Heaven and 10 ml Formulex mixed in 2 liters of water. I hope they like it :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-02. New pics and the girls liked the water and nutrients yesterday. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-03. New videos of the girls this morning. Nr1 and 3 looks great and nr 2 is looking a little funny, maby a little stressed. Kl. 16.00. Did some defoliation on the girls. Added video. Kl.. 23.00. New videos, defoliation and leaftucking. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2/5 Week 6 May be last week of veg kind of depends on factors outside the grow. Lets hope Keeping the Si included and leaving nuets as is. Continuing to defoliate as needed to keep things civil in the small tent, Moya is crowded. Canopy is at 30" plants about 20" 2/6 Better plan! Found a table at Goodwill that will fit in the flower tent and allow two plants to be moved there tomorrow. So tomorrow is the day, two plants will remain in Moya, prob Jool and Zhaan 2/7 Aeryn is in flower tent flipped to 12-12 Jool and Zhaan in small tent, Moya, also flipped to 12-12 Here we go Feed set as above, keeping levels low at this point 2/8 Second day May reduce feed a bit, white tips One time feed of Kangaroots 10ml/gal Keeping things defoliated so the middle gets lots of light 2/8 Last attempt to try and get rid of those white tips. Further reduced feed but added just a touch of cal-mag to make up for it. If this doesnt work I am just feeding them and ignoring the tips. Flowering is starting to show, more on Aeryn being under the HPS than Jool and Zhaan under the LEDs. Continuing to defoliate as needed to keep bud sites in light. 2/10 Bringing down the nuets to under 500ppm did the trick on the white tips but can not leave things there so back to some sane level and I am just going to ignore it. Stretch is starting for real 😳 2/11 Since the tip burning is an issue with N, I am going to move the girls to all bloom tomorrow with today as a transition. Strain is absolutely sensitive to Nitrogen.

Everything going great. Smells like sour candies. Legit can smell the cantaloupe origins and it’s already getting blanketed in trichs. Can’t wait to see these girls get dense in the next few weeks.

I am happy with the outcome of this grow. This was my first time growing autoflowers and ILGM genetics. Total wet weight was 1301 grams Total dry weight 8.5 oz These plants are very hardy and grow tall very quickly with the tallest plant reaching 4 ft tall. Each plant grew very different bud structures which resulted in some very dense and very fluffy buds. If you are looking for a very uniform growing plant with dense buds you may need to look for another strain. The smell from these buds are strong and amazing. I would describe the smell as fruity glue with rubber. I am overall very pleased with how this grow went and I cant wait to grow some more!

# Tical x Zamnesia — Nectar Drip šŸÆšŸ’§ | Harvest Report This one feels special. Not only because Nectar Drip is a collaboration between Tical and Zamnesia, and not only because this was a limited edition pack that we were lucky enough to get our hands on… but because this entire run had personality from the beginning until the very last cut. And now? Harvest time. Last week, we froze the smallest plant immediately after harvest for future washing and extraction work. We will talk much deeper about that process later on when the time comes, because there is already enough happening in this report alone. For now, she rests quietly in the freezer waiting for her next transformation. This week belongs to the other girls. The remaining plants are now officially harvested. And honestly… wow. Dense. Compact. Heavy. Greasy. Colorful. Beautifully faded. These flowers finished exactly the way we hoped they would. The trichomes are right where I personally love to harvest my medicine: - around 80% cloudy, - a small touch of amber, - a few still transitioning from clear into cloudy. For me, this is the sweet spot. This is where the plant feels the most ā€œaliveā€ in effect and expression. The majority of the trichome heads have matured fully, but the profile still keeps that brightness, complexity, and energy before moving too deeply into degradation. If harvested too early: - many trichomes are still immature, - cannabinoid development is incomplete, - effects can feel unfinished or sharp. If harvested too late: - more cannabinoids begin degrading, - THC slowly converts over time into compounds like CBN, - effects often become heavier, sleepier, and more sedative. And while there is absolutely nothing wrong with harvesting later if that is what someone prefers, this specific window is personally where I feel the flower expresses itself best for my own medicinal and recreational preference. That is the beautiful part of growing: everyone eventually develops their own relationship with harvest timing. There is no single perfect answer. There is only observation, intention, and preference. And these girls were speaking very clearly. The fade across the leaves was incredible this week. Deep yellows, pale greens, dark fading edges, purples, reds hiding in places the camera barely captures properly. You can almost feel the plant redistributing everything it has left into the flowers before the end. Even the structure itself became fascinating near harvest. When we cut into the stems, the inside looked almost like a tiny tree trunk. Huge vascular channels running through the middle, thick supportive tissue, massive water transport systems that carried these flowers through their entire life cycle. You could feel it physically during harvest. This was not like cutting a soft plant anymore. It genuinely felt like cutting small trees. And honestly, the stem thickness explains a lot about the flowers themselves: dense structure, heavy tops, excellent water transport, strong support, healthy development. The genetics clearly had strength behind them. The flowers themselves are absolutely covered. At some points, the sugar leaves are literally curling and twisting under the sheer amount of trichome coverage. Any connoisseur looking at these buds up close immediately understands what they are looking at. Top shelf flower. No hype needed. The plant speaks for herself. The F.O.G. LED setup continues to impress more and more every run too. The flower quality under these lights has been genuinely outstanding. Resin production, density, coloration, structure, frost expression — everything feels elevated. It really does feel like we are watching part of the future of indoor cultivation unfold in real time. Of course, before harvest we had to bring these girls into the studio one final time. And honestly… they were amazing models. šŸ˜„ We shot: - dark dramatic portraits, - bright detailed flower shots, - macro closeups, - studio photographs, - behind-the-scenes moments, - live videos, - and a huge amount of focus-stacked macro photography. Some of the photographs became entire projects by themselves. For anyone curious about the ā€œphoto stackedā€ images: those are not single photographs. They are multiple photos merged together at different focus distances to create one final image with extreme detail and depth. Some stacks here used: - 103 photos, - 110 photos, - 171 photos, - 201 photos, - all the way up to 226 merged frames. The process takes patience: shooting, sorting, merging, aligning, correcting, editing, balancing colors, recovering detail, and then refining the final image carefully. But the result is worth it. You start seeing the flower almost like another world: individual trichome heads, resin textures, tiny color transitions, leaf structures, amber glands, frost patterns, details the naked eye simply cannot fully appreciate in real time. And the colors on this Nectar Drip are honestly stunning. Greens. Lime tones. Deep forest shades. Purples. Yellows. Reds. Silver frost. Orange pistils. Some shots leaned into darker cinematic moods, others pushed colorful vibrant expressions. We experimented a little and allowed the flowers to show different personalities depending on light, background, and mood. Now the plants are hanging peacefully. Because of their size and density, we could not hang everything as entire full plants. Instead, we divided them into grouped branches for drying. They now rest in controlled conditions for the next week or two while we monitor: - humidity, - drying speed, - aroma development, - branch flexibility, - and overall curing preparation. No rushing now. Harvest is not the finish line. Drying is part of the grow too. And honestly, sometimes it is one of the most important parts. We also included some video updates because certain things simply cannot be fully captured in photos alone: the way the flowers move, how the colors react in real light, the depth of the frost, the density, the atmosphere around the plant itself. The room felt calm this week. That strange calm after harvest where the work is technically done, but another important phase quietly begins. And next week? Next week will probably be the trimming and smoke review report. That is why we separated the reports into stages instead of forcing everything into one massive update. There are simply too many details, too many moments, too much material, and too much beauty in this run to rush through it carelessly. This harvest deserved time. And before ending this report, as always: Thank you. To Zamnesia. To Tical. To Plagron. To F.O.G. To LumifloraTo the gear. To the platform. To the community. To the longtime followers and OGs. To the new people stopping by out of curiosity. To the supporters. To the skeptics. To the silent viewers. To the haters too honestly šŸ˜„ To everyone who spent even a few seconds here with us. If someone stopped scrolling long enough to share this moment with us, then they deserve a little gratitude and a little love in return. This run was beautiful from beginning to end.

Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

Nothing to report. Seedling. I use chop sticks to hold up the plants until they are strong. Prevents them from blowing over.

0.1) Observação Geral Todo o cultivo foi conduzido com monitoramento constante e ajustes precisos de intensidade luminosa (DLI e PPFD), temperatura e umidade, garantindo condiƧƵes ideais em cada estĆ”gio do desenvolvimento. 1) Substrato e Nutrientes O cultivo foi realizado utilizando Ć”gua mineral com pH balanceado durante todo o ciclo. Fase vegetativa: fertilização com BioGrow. Floração: alimentação com Flowermind. A mistura do solo foi composta por 50% de substrato reutilizado, rico em nutrientes do cultivo anterior, e 50% de novo solo (proporção 70/15/15), resultando em uma base equilibrada e fĆ©rtil. 2) Germinação – 19 de agosto As sementes foram germinadas utilizando Ć”gua mineral + peróxido de hidrogĆŖnio em copinhos de gelatina individuais. Permaneceram por 24 horas na solução lĆ­quida, seguidas de 24 horas no escuro total sobre papel toalha umedecido com a mesma Ć”gua, dentro do mesmo recipiente. Os copos foram abertos apenas a cada 12 horas, em ambiente de baixa luminosidade. Todas as sementes germinaram com sucesso. As sementes com raĆ­zes de aproximadamente 2 cm foram transferidas para vasos de 1 litro, com adição gradual de substrato conforme o crescimento das plĆ¢ntulas, prevenindo o tombamento dos caules. 3) Fase de PlĆ¢ntula a) Conduzida sob lĆ¢mpadas de 35W e 50W dentro de uma caixa de papelĆ£o personalizada, equipada com coolers e exaustor para controle de temperatura. b) Aplicação de FORT (enraizador) em uma rega, após o aparecimento do primeiro conjunto de folhas com cinco pontas. 4) Topping – 10 de setembro Foi realizado o primeiro corte apical para incentivar maior ramificação e uma distribuição mais equilibrada de energia. 5) LST (Low Stress Training) – iniciado em 13 de setembro O treinamento comeƧou trĆŖs dias após o topping, com amarraƧƵes graduais dos ramos para promover a abertura do dossel e melhor penetração de luz. 6) Transplante – 27 de setembro Transplante realizado para vasos de 4 litros, com rega leve e adaptação gradual Ć  nova base de substrato. 7) InĆ­cio da Floração (Troca para 12/12) – 6 de outubro O fotoperĆ­odo foi ajustado para 12 horas de luz e 12 horas de escuridĆ£o, marcando o inĆ­cio oficial da fase de floração.

~MERINGUE by DUTCH PASSION~ Well friends, here we go on another 'canna-venture' together! The grow room has had a complete remodel and some upgrades done to it including brand spanking new 4x8 and 4x4 tents and a Trolmaster Hydro X controller along with a new Control Panel. This strain by Dutch Passion is one of my all time favorite strains that I've cultivated previously with phenomenal results so I'm looking forward to seeing what this girl has to offer when she's grown to her full potential! I'm going to things a bit different this time around. I have a brand spanking new AC Infinity 4x4 tent and was just given one of HLG's newest lights for 2022, The Blackbird! I've got this 600w monster hooked up to my Trolmaster Hydro X Controller so I've got full control over timing, dimming and Sunrise/Sunset. This beauty is going to annihilate the 4x4 for sure! šŸ˜ŽšŸ‘ I'm going to grow her all by herself and veg her for around 70-90 days after witch I'll install a trellis net in the tent and spread her out. Once she's recovered from her 'net training' I'll flip her to 12/12 and hang on! 🤪 It's ALWAYS been a blast for me growing strains from Dutch Passion because their genetics are extremely stable which allow me to just concentrate on the essentials: Light, Environment, Water, Nutrients and possibly a bit of LST... not complicated, just basics like keeping a constant temperature and RH in the tent at a level that gives a good VPD, watering when almost dry and maintaining proper light levels according to their stage of growth and they REWARD you with some of the most EPIC cultivars you've ever grown! šŸ‘šŸ‘šŸ‘ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ~STRAIN INFORMATION**~ ~Unique USA genetics~ ~Very sweet aroma and fruity flavors~ ~Compact buds with one of the highest THC levels~ ~Quality of the flowers is top-notch with an amazing bag appeal~ Meringue has a very sweet aroma and fruity flavor Meringue is a hybrid indica/sativa strain with a complex fruity aroma that leans to the tangy side of the spectrum but a bit sweeter. It smells like oranges, mango and honey with some earthy, sour hints. Her aroma profile is also very pungent. Meringue is a connoisseur’s delight Meringue is a high-quality strain. She might not be the biggest overall yielder but the level of quality is definitely a reason to keep growing her again and again. Expect solid yields of stunning looking buds. Although the flowers can be a bit smaller, they are rock-hard and thus will still put down some weight on the scale. When handled well she will deliver you some of the most beautiful looking nuggets on the planet. The dark hues in the flowers and leaves makes the white layer of resin really pop out for an eye-catching bag appeal. Meringue is grown by crossing Wedding Cake x Animal Cookies. Wedding Cake, also known as Pink Cookies, is a USA cross of the famous Girl Scout Cookies and Cherry Pie. These 2 strains make for the intense sweet tangy taste of the variety. It is also noted for its extremely high THC content. Animal Cookies is another popular USA variety which is a child of the legendary GSC line and Fire OG. She is a clone-only variety that flowers in about 9 week and grows very dense and compact buds that can show some dark coloration in the flowers. This strain has a sweet and sour aroma with a strong body-effect that will suit the more experienced smoker. -The genetics used to create Meringue ensure the following characteristics- ~A sweet tangy aroma from the Wedding Cake ~The dense, compact and colored buds from the Animal Cookies ~High potency levels thanks to both the Wedding Cake and Animal Cookies genetics Meringue is top-notch variety with a high cannabinoid profile and an intensely sweet, pungent aroma. ~Meringue Effects~ Meringue is a crossing of 2 popular hybrid USA strains. She leans a bit more to the Indica side which is shown in the shorter flowering time and bud structure. The effect of the variety is quite euphoric with a powerful sense of well being and relaxation. When you smoke more during a short period of time you will be rewarded with a deep body stone which could give a couch-lock experience. Meringue feminized seeds vs Lemon Meringue strain Any fans of the USA Lemon Meringue variety will love the Dutch Passion Meringue. Both varieties share a THC rich high and a connoisseur flavor profile. However feminized seeds of the Dutch Passion Meringue are thought to produce frostier plants and a superior vaping experience. -The growth and flowering time of Meringue- We recommend a veg period of about 4-6 weeks for these feminized seeds. Meringue can have a bit of a slow start while showing some stretch during the latter part of the grow period. On the other hand, she doesn’t stretch a lot during flowering, so she can be a bit challenging to understand. Meringue can have quite an unusual growth pattern with leaves that have elongated stems and which are pointed upwards with some distance to the main stem. This requires the use of certain growing techniques, like leaf tucking, to make sure she receives sufficient light from top to bottom. Meringue stays fairly compact and within 3-4 weeks there is already a lot of resin on the flowers. After 6 weeks of flowering the buds start to show orange pistils, they seem to ripen quite fast. Luckily all plants show amazing resin production, making them very appealing to the eye. The flowering time is about 8 weeks. In combination with the recommended veg phase, it will take around 12-14 weeks from cannabis seed to harvest. The yield of the Meringue Meringue produces XL harvests of top-notch quality cannabis; between 400 and 500 grams per m2 is possible. The buds are really frosty and dense. Our expert advice: Meringue is the perfect strain for professional home growers or licensed producers looking for a variety with the highest possible resin levels. Buds are literally coated in layers of resin. We would recommend to look out for the plants which show the most hybrid leaf and plant structure. These are generally the biggest and best yielding phenotypes. Consider using a UV light during the last few weeks of flowering and notice how the trichome production goes into overdrive. If you’re looking for something truly unique with an amazing bag appeal then please look no further, Meringue is the strain you need! ~More info about Meringue Meringue isn’t the most straightforward plant to grow so she can be a bit challenging to understand. The thing that stands out the most is the slightly unusual growth pattern, therefore more leaf picking is necessary, otherwise the lower buds will not receive enough light. Because of the slightly larger internodal distance, buds don’t have the tendency to become really big, which could make her a bit more interesting for growers with higher humidity levels. There should be enough fresh air around these flowers though, because they become rock-hard. Buds are covered in trichomes, lab results showed all phenotypes were close to and above 20% THC, suited for hardcore smokers. ** Credit to Dutch Passion ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ~THE SETUP~ ~Initially seed was lightly scuffed, then soaked for 3 hours in 78℉ distilled water after which it was transferred to a moist paper towel laid out in a Jiffy Pellet plastic starter tray with lid. Underneath the tray was placed a Mars Hydro Heat Mat with Controller that was set to 78℉ where it stayed until a tap root emerged. ~Planted into Jiffy Peat Pellet that was hydrated with distilled water warmed to 78℉ with a 7.0 ph. ~Once roots emerged from the Jiffy Pellet she was transferred to a 1qt plastic pot. As she grows I'll be moving her into larger pots along the way up until she's in her 10g fabric pot. ~Grown in a 10g fabric pot filled with Mother Earth 70/30 Coco/Perlite medium and fed Dutch Pro nutrients throughout the entire grow with de-chlorinated water ph'd @ 6.2-6.8. ~19/5 light cycle for vegetation, then 12/12 to flower with supplemental UVA added during the last weeks of flower. Lights are controlled by a Trolmaster Hydro X controller set for a 15min Sunrise/Sunset simulation. ~ Supplemental co2 provided throughout vegetation and flower - monitored and controlled by an AutoPilot APC8200 co2 controller. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 12/1- I soaked the seed for 3 hours in 78℉ distilled water after which it was transferred to a moist paper towel laid out in a Jiffy Pellet plastic starter tray with lid. Underneath the tray was placed a Vivosun Heat Mat with Controller that was set to 78℉. After 30 hours she had not popped open yet so I soaked another seed for 3 hours and then into a paper towel and onto the heat mat it went. 12/3- This afternoon I checked and the seed had a root that was about 1/4 to 3/8" so at 5 pm I transferred it into a Jiffy Peat Pellet that was hydrated with distilled water warmed to 78℉ with a 7.0 ph using a tine off of a plastic fork as a 'mini trowel' to make a hole in the pellet and to gently cover the tap root, leaving only the seed head slightly exposed. This method accomplishes most of the initial work the seed has to do by eliminating having to orientate itself, push it's root down and head up. By the next morning she had her cotyledon leaves opened! 12/5- Well this is Day ONE for the Dutch Passion Meringue! I'll keep her in the covered/heated Jiffy tray until I see her roots beginning to emerge from the peat pellet, then I'll transfer her gently into her 2qt plastic starter pot to begin growing. 12/7- Today when I checked her, she had roots just starting to emerge from her pellet, so tomorrow I'll transfer her into her 'starter' pot. šŸ˜ŽšŸ’š Thank you for checking out my passion in life! Please visit as often as you wish and I hope you enjoy this journey as much as I know I will! Grow Strong! šŸ’ŖšŸ˜ŽšŸ¤™

This week was ok..this week's growth were a little stunted in my opinion...honestly I noticed some deficiencies in the leaves, which is a result of my ph being lower than ideal ranges..I noticed that my runoff ph was around 5.5.i did a light flush of the plants with low strength nutrients ph at 6.2. So the ladies seem to be responding well so far. Ill definitely keep yall updated in my next upload. Happy growing šŸ˜Ž Also I am very aware of how my ph dropped down that low in the 1st place..i will definitely correct the problem

Another great week for the pound cake! I'm so happy that it's growing so big and well for an 11L tub. It's also stretching really well and evenly, all without any training.
