17.12.24: Seedling is looking nice and healthy, good green colour 👌 I didn't use a humidity dome this time, as the other Seedlings damped off. It has clearly done very well without it, so I don't need it at all really, as my humidity is very high on it's own. It's about 75% currently. 19.12.24: Ok so the powdery Mildew has appeared again, I have not watered, and the plants are doing well. They seem to have recovered significantly since last week. I have scooped out the top layer of soil to get rid of the Mildew, again. I then top dressed with;- Biobizz Light Mix, cinnamon, extra perlite, Vitalink Bat guano, and worm castings. Very pleased with the progress of Watermelon 🍉 Watered in with 100ml containing;- 1ml per litre of Biobizz Bio-Grow and 1ml of Ecothrive Flourish Fingers crossed 🤞 Thanks for checking out my diary 🍃 ✌️

Ztrawberriez is doing great, beside the fact for the first time ever I tripped while moving her and she spilled out. Needless to say there were bad words said. So anyway stuffed it back in. Plant looks OK, but dunno if roots got damaged. So I did some lst on her. She was definitely ready. Looking good and hopefully tomorrow as well. 🤞🏻 Thank you Fast Buds. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g If anyone needs to purchase fastbuds here is a link for my affiliate program https://myfastbuds.com/?a_aid=60910eaff2419

Hello boys and girls we’ve officially reached the finish line! 🕺🏾🎊🍾 It’s been an amazing experience growing this strain. This week we wrapped things up and flushed using Flawless Finish. Tropicana’s colors showed out with some buds going purple, her profile is a real nose-pleaser and I’m pretty happy with how my trichomes are looking (all turned milky with very few ambers) She was thoroughly set free from the salts, and after her final watering 4 days ago I just let her ride it out. Right after these photos, she’ll be chopped and set to dry! I’ll be back with updates once she’s dried and I begin the curing process. 🤝🏾 It’s been a pleasure growing this beauty alongside all of you thank you for the encouragements. Mama Tropicana sends her love too 😊 I’ve got other strains running in the garden from Fastbuds and more, so feel free to follow along. A great harvest season is upon us 🙌🏾😋 Happy growing and happy weekend, gang! 💚

These 2 are growing amazing, especially plant 1 is doing great. I've had the humidity on about 40% for most of the time since I have another flowering auto in the tent but these don't seem to mind. I've also had them on about 400umol/m2/s

Servus Moin! Die Deep Jealousy Auto macht richtig schöne Knollen dran! Hoffentlich werden sie noch ein wenig größer!

Eventful week for the girls... threw in another 95w LED to finish out flower and to grow an extra plant or two next run. Checked the trics on the leftmost plant and they were almost all cloudy and even starting to turn amber in a couple spots, so I decided it was time to chop her. Probably gonna take the other smaller plant down soon as well. The tallest plant is still looking larfy as hell but I'm hoping she'll thicken up a little over the next week or two.

In Woche 3 hat die Sticky Broccoli ordentlich an Blattwerk und Biomasse zugelegt und zeigt sich insgesamt sehr vital. Die gesunde Blattfarbe bestätigt, dass sie sich rundum wohlfühlt und das Indica-typische Wachstum klar durchkommt. Getoppt wurde sie etwas später als üblich, was dem kräftigen Wuchs aber keinen Abbruch getan hat. Zusätzlich haben wir Cropping angewendet, um die starken Triebe kontrolliert nach unten zu biegen. Ganz ohne Drama ging es dabei nicht, ein kleiner Knacks war leider dabei, aber nichts, was die Pflanze ernsthaft beeindrucken sollte. Die Triebe sind inzwischen weit genug entwickelt, um mit dem Mainlining zu starten. Aktuell bleiben drei Nodien mit insgesamt sechs Trieben stehen. Insgesamt ein sehr solider Stand in Woche 3 mit viel Potenzial für eine saubere Struktur in den kommenden Wochen.

First signs of side branching so was able to begin LST on day 20. Plants where waters with dechlorinated water pH to approximately 6.3. The tangerine dream auto may have begun to shoot out pistols already 🙃

Woche 8 Blütewoche 1 🙈: Der Wechsel in die Blüte Das große Ereignis steht bevor! Der Lichtzyklus ist auf 12/12 umgestellt. Die Pflanze genießt eine sanfte 15-minütige Dimmphase. Um den Übergang stressfrei zu gestalten, haben wir das DLI auf 30 reduziert. Der Düngeplan wechselt auf 5 ml/l Hesi Bloom, 2 ml/l Hesi Boost (einmal wöchentlich), 1 ml/l Plagron Greensensation (einmal wöchentlich) und 2 ml/l Calmag. * Zustand der Pflanze: Start des Blütestrecks. * Wichtige Ereignisse: Wechsel des Lichtzyklus. Reduzierung des DLI. * Düngung & Messwerte: * Gießwasser: pH ca. 6,3. Leitwert 1,4 bis 2 S. * Drain: Wir stellen sicher, dass der pH-Wert nicht unter 5,5 und nicht über 6,8 liegt. * Anpassungen:

sideways. i am done torchering this creature and am now asking for forgiveness and a salvage harvest. 3rd grow ever in life maybe four but frustrated i am finally starting to understand some things. i feel like there are 40k people on planet earth at least on here who have successs so no reason i cant but have to make notes and pay attention examine these creatures and try to get on a spiritul wavelength while following the leaders many many suggestions. this started out with a blurple then maxsisun mf 2000 and there was a week under a marshydro tsw 2000 and i switched it though i wonder if i am making a mistake not using the maxsisun on the new grow as it has 400 watts from the wall and the marshydro has 300 watts. i also have noticed that many people are having success with nowhere near the shit i have bought. this has become some kind of weird obsession but i am obsessed with my outdoor garden and i have severe bipolar and gardening helps very very much. i get very very depressed in winter and i have realized this is all about a million different things but i will make a maximum effort to keep it simple and not stress this next grow like i did to this poor thing. AS FAR AS IM CONSCERNED, PEOPLE WHO GROW WEED HAVE SOMETHING MYSTERIOUS IN COMMON AND WHATEVER IT IS, ITS NONE OF MY BUSINESS. JUST KEEP GROWING UNTIL I CATCH ON FIRE OR GET REWARDED WITH GOOD SIZED DENSE BUDS THAT LOOK LIKE THEY SHOULD HAVE A BOW TIED AROUND THEM OR AT LEAST TAKE YOU OFF PLANET.

**Semaine Harvest : Récolte Finale – Sticky Broccoli (28 avril 2026)** **Note :** Fin du cycle Eternity Grow Cup 2. Récolte effectuée en semaine 10 de floraison (légèrement anticipée). Tout le journal de culture est maintenant complet. ### Contexte et Bilan du Cycle Après 10 semaines de floraison (semaine 14 globale), la récolte a été déclenchée suite à un départ de botrytis sur une autre plante du même espace. J’aurais pu laisser encore quelques jours pour laisser mûrir un peu plus les trichomes ambrés, mais la sécurité prime. La plante dominante (150 cm) a donné un beau rendement qualitatif, avec des buds denses, extrêmement frosty et résineux. **Poids frais : environ 780 grammes** (poids humide total des buds trimés, sans les grosses tiges). Mise à jour prévue dans 2 semaines pour le **poids sec final** après un bon curing. ### Observations à la Récolte - **Buds** : Denses et compacts, très collants. Couverture trichomale exceptionnelle (majoritairement laiteux avec quelques têtes ambrées). L’aspect sugar est magnifique, les buds brillent littéralement. - **Odeur** : Très agréable, sucrée, épicée et florale, typique de Sticky Broccoli. Puissante même après le flush. - **Résine** : Extrêmement résineuse au toucher – parfait pour du dry sift ou un petit Ice-o-Lator. - **Structure** : Belle densité globale, même si la taille individuelle des buds reste dans la moyenne haute pour la variété (pas les plus gros que j’ai vus, mais la qualité trichomale compense largement). - **Santé** : Plantes propres jusqu’à la fin, pas de carence visible. Le flush des 3 derniers jours (EC 0,7) a bien aidé à nettoyer les sels. **Clones** : Quelques clones prélevés plusieurs semaines auparavant ont été repiqués avec succès dans leur nouveau système. Ils sont bien enracinés et prêts à repartir pour un prochain cycle de végétation/floraison. La génétique est conservée ! ### Paramètres en Fin de Cycle (semaine 10) - Température jour/nuit : 19-21 °C / 14-15 °C - Humidité : 48-58 % jour / 29-39 % nuit - VPD : 0.9-1.3 kPa - PPFD : 550 (DLI 24) - UV : 90 min/jour - EC final : 1.0 puis flush à 0.7 (Terra Aquatica seul) - pH : 5.8-6.0 - Steering : génératif jusqu’à la fin - 48h de blackout avant récolte : appliqué pour booster la résine et améliorer la qualité des trichomes. ### Plans Post-Récolte - **Séchage** : 7-10 jours à 18-20 °C et 55-60 % d’humidité dans un espace sombre et ventilé. - **Curing** : Minimum 2-3 semaines en bocaux (burping régulier) pour affiner les terpènes et la douceur. Mise à jour dans 2 semaines avec le poids sec final. - **Utilisation** : Une partie en fleurs séchées/cure, et un petit batch pour **dry sift** + **Ice-o-Lator** (bubble hash) histoire de se régaler avec la résine exceptionnelle de cette Sticky Broccoli. **Tips éducatif final : Le flush et le blackout en fin de cycle** - **Flush** (3 derniers jours à EC très bas) : Permet d’éliminer les sels accumulés et améliore nettement le goût final (moins de chimie, plus de terpènes purs). - **48h de blackout** : Technique simple mais efficace qui stress légèrement la plante de manière positive, augmentant la production de résine et la clarté des trichomes juste avant la coupe. Ce fut un très beau cycle, propre et instructif malgré l’interruption due au botrytis. La qualité résineuse et l’odeur compensent largement. Merci à Zamnesia et Plagron pour le matos ! **#GrowLegendary #Zamnesia #Plagron #EternityGrowCup2 #StickyBroccoli** Dans 2 semaines je mettrai à jour avec le poids sec et les premières impressions après curing. **Estimation du poids sec final** Avec **780 grammes de poids frais** (buds humides, après trim initial mais avant séchage complet), voici une estimation réaliste pour cette Sticky Broccoli : ### Estimation raisonnable - **Poids sec attendu** : **180 à 230 grammes** (environ **23-30 %** du poids frais). **Pourquoi cette fourchette ?** - Les buds frais contiennent typiquement 70-80 % d’eau. - Après un bon séchage (jusqu’à 10-12 % d’humidité résiduelle) + curing, il reste généralement **20-30 %** du poids humide initial. - 20 % → **156 g** (estimation basse, si buds très denses ou séchage poussé) - 25 % → **195 g** (estimation moyenne, la plus courante pour des buds compacts comme les tiens) - 30 % → **234 g** (estimation haute, si les buds retiennent un peu plus d’humidité ou sont particulièrement résineux) Tes buds étant décrits comme **denses, très collants et frosty**, je pencherais plutôt vers le **milieu/haut de la fourchette** : **190-220 grammes** une fois bien secs et cured. ### Facteurs qui influenceront le résultat final - **Qualité du séchage** : Température 18-20 °C, humidité 50-60 %, bonne circulation d’air sans vent direct → perte d’eau progressive et uniforme. - **Trim** : Si tu as fait un wet trim assez serré, le poids sec sera un peu plus bas que si tu as laissé plus de sugar leaves. - **Densité des buds** : Plus ils sont compacts et résineux, moins ils perdent de poids relatif (mais ils sèchent parfois un peu plus lentement). - **Curing** : Pendant les 2-4 semaines en bocaux, tu perdras encore un peu d’humidité, mais le poids se stabilisera. ### Prochaines étapes 1. **Séchage** : 7-10 jours jusqu’à ce que les tiges cassent net (pas pliables). 2. **Curing** : Minimum 2 semaines (idéalement 4+) avec burping quotidien au début. 3. **Pesée finale** : Une fois le poids stabilisé (après 2 semaines de curing),

So let's talk trichomes, those magical little sparklers on our beloved plants. I'm here to share some fun and easy insights about these tiny wonders that make our hearts skip a beat.

They're like the guardians of goodness, housing all the good stuff we love in cannabis. These beauties are packed with cannabinoids like THC and CBD, which give us those desired effects. And let's not forget about the enchanting terpenes, those aromatic molecules that create the delightful flavors and aromas we cherish. You know what's fascinating? The number of trichomes on a plant can be mind-boggling! It's like trying to count stars in the sky. So many tiny little heroes, each contributing their magic to the overall experience. But here's the kicker: Trichomes aren't just there for show. They serve a purpose too! They protect the plant from predators, like a fortress of sticky goodness. They can make pests stick and deter them from munching on our precious buds. It's like having a secret weapon in the battle against unwanted visitors. So, my fellow growers, when you see those trichomes dancing and shimmering on your Tropicana Cookies Auto, rejoice! It's a sign that your plant is thriving and producing some top-notch goodness. Keep a close eye on them as they reach their peak, and get ready for a delightful harvest filled with potency and flavor.

No hermi flowers from these two clones from a hermi.This grow has been hard to keep contained ive been bending branches for 4 weeks and it sill stretches 4to 6 inches every few days i am out of space under the lights its been a jack n been stalk grow

my dry and cure style is this: 4 days of hanging upside down to get water activity lower to around 0.6 in 50% humidity and 26 C temp (i know its a little high but we are in a hot summer right now and i cant get it lower even with air conditioner) and then after 4 days of drying i remove leaves and stalks, trim buds and move them to jar for the rest of their life :D . and in the first 4 days of curing i open the jar door and let hem get some fresh air in the jar for about 5 minutes and close the jar door again, after 4 days of curing like that buds are smokable but they will get better as they getting cured about 1 month. buds are one of the hardest as fucking rocks type of buds! very dense , compact , sticky , smelly , amazing at every aspect growing stage was 56 days and flowering stage was 75 days total (harvested tops at day 64th) the total weight of dry buds was : (plant #1 & #3 top buds 56 G + lower buds 22 G ) 78 G + (plant #2 top buds 47 G + lower buds 18 G ) 55 G + (plant #4 top buds 120 G + lower buds 67 G ) 187 G = 367 G

This week the flowers really started to bulk up. I was worried about having very loose buds as the development starts off very slow but eventually they really bulk up nicely!! The topped plant is about 2 weeks behind in flower but has way more main collas! Check the last video for both plants
