May 2, We are on day 39 of grow This week i keep doing some cut and management to en ourage the plants grow using main lining techniques At this stage I use my 300W light is at 70% of power , extractor at 30% and i have 2 PC Fan in the tent for the air circulation

What happened in the box? After 24 hours in the dark room, they will soon be harvested - it smells fruity and biscuit-like - I'm very excited about the terpene profile. I will now dry them at 19-22 degrees for about 10 days, then they go into the jar for curing , test report coming soon! See you soon and thanks for your time and let's grow 💚. ‐----------------------------------------------------------------- For seeds I recommend www.alchimiaweb.com.

I'm sorry, but at the time I stopped updating the diaries because I moved to a new house and changed my routines. I'll leave a photo of the final product here, but don't worry, I'll be back at full speed. 🚀🚀 new diaries coming 🔜🔜

11/3 - Today is technically the first day of Week 5 and also the first day I could see a visible drop in her water level since her last check-in (~12 hours apart). As a result, her ppms shot up to around 800. I diluted the solution with straight tap (7.5pH, 170ppm) since her pH was registering around 5.3. This brought her up to 5.6pH and 670ppm (1.0ec + tap, 500ppm of nutrients). I would have liked to adjust her pH more, but the water level ended up at the bottom of the basket. I'll adjust further as necessary. The other day while attempting to LST her top branches, they ended up snapping off, so I just topped her down one node and broadened her other LST to make her as squat as possible. Once I am able to find a suitable individual ScrOG screen, I will put it on her. 11/4 - I wasn't even planning on doing an update today, but I want to note a few changes. The first of which is a visible difference between her foliage density in a span of 36 hours. Her root bundle is over a foot long and getting more wound up every day. I removed her LST ties in order to take advantage of the ScrOG screen apparatus (see notes below). After lights came back on, she measured 645ppm and had another notable drop in water level. Currently, I am preparing another nutrient solution that closely matches what she is feeding on now. I will be upgrading her to a 5 gallon bucket. I will be aiming for 1ec of nutrients/additives (500ppm + Tap on my meter, Hanna Primo .5 conversion). Tap measured 180ppm, so target ppm would be 680. Later that same day... So I finished upgrading her to a 5 gallon bucket before I actually got done writing the update. Added one photo showing new 5 gallon setup. Solo ScrOG test mk1 - In an attempt to do a ScrOG, but maintain control over each bucket, while still having relatively easy access to each reservoir, I decided to throw together this little contraption. I removed the lowest complete segment of a tomato cage, leaving a short "tail" beyond the lower ring to act as a peg to insert into corresponding holes in the lid. The lower ring is 10" in diameter and the upper is approximately 12" in diameter. Each ring is 11" apart. I would prefer to have a shorter segment, but I haven't worked out exactly how to do this yet. I would prefer to set the screen height at around 6" above the bucket instead of 11". This will have to suffice for the time being while I let my latent conscious work out a solution or one is provided by the community. Above each cage will sit a coated wire fence with grids measuring ~2"x3", as shown in the above picture. 11/5 - Uploaded short video showing Solo ScrOG Apparatus in place. Screen height currently set to 6". Thanks for stopping by my garden, and, as always, Happy Growing!

Second time doing a photo so hopefully should be fine, New strains, nutrients and medium, Strain: Gelato Sorbet - DNA Genetics Nutrients: Mills Nutrient’s Medium: DNA x Mills Coco & cork Just drop the seed into water so I’ll update this in 48hrs ✌️🏻 22/02/19 - All look good 100% germ rate from DNA so far so can’t complain, really good quality genetics the seeds sank into the water almost instantly and had a 1/4” tail within 24hrs so it’s looking like a great start other than two have the wax from the seed keeping the leaves together but I’ve sprayed them with some ph’ed water so hopefully they are able to break through it without my help.

no signs of pests during the grow. only one time i had ants trying to infest one plant but easily got rid of them by using cinnamon around the stem. she grows easy and is fun to train, you don't have to be an expert. in the late flowering i got some budrot in both plants and stalled the harvest by inspecting and cutting it away daily, haven't lost a lot due to it. i would recommend this strain as she is a high trichome producer, big yielder and easy to grow plant that gives nice buds with a good smell and greath high. she is a strain that makes you talkative, giggly and euphoric and is surely gonna give you a good sleep. be sure to go easy on her as she is a strong breed. an amazing strain to grow. she creates colourfull purple buds filled with trichomes that is really good for the chilling occasions, be sure not to have to go somewhere as she will last long and prepare for a joyfull evening with lots of laughing and good talks. i'll post more pictures after the drying process!

Día 44 (15/07) Wow! No hay shock de trasplante! 😍💥😁 Todas las ramas se han estirado hacia arriba tras el ajuste de LST y se están formando nuevos nodos rápidamente Esta combinación de nutrientes de Lurpe + substrato de PRO-MIX HP es una maravilla 😍 Día 45 (16/07) Ayer tuvimos ola de calor (37 ºC) y han aguantado muy bien! A última hora de la tarde (cuando ya no había sol directo) les apliqué H2O en spray foliarmente para refrescar los estomas Hoy parece que vuelven las temperaturas estándar para esta época del año: 29 - 30 ºC en las horas centrales del día Riego con 1 litro de H20 pH 6,5 Día 46 (17/07) Pequeños ajustes de LST Hay algunas ramas inferiores que no se han formado / estirado mucho Lo más probable es que haga una buena limpieza este domingo, 7 días después del trasplante, para dejar solo los brotes por encima del 4º nudo Día 47 (18/07) Riego con 0,5 litro de H20 pH 6,5 Este domingo (día 50) haré limpieza de partes bajas y tal vez también de nuevo topping en las 4-6 ramas principales 😁 Día 48 (19/07) Día de muchísimo calor con 37 ºC. A ver como lo llevan! Riego con 0,5 litro de H20 pH 6,5 Día 49 (20/07) Para ayudarles a llevar mejor el calor de las horas centrales del día, coloca una malla de sombreo (70%) sobre el invernadero Lo cierto es que se nota que baja mucho la temperatura debajo de la malla! Van a estar más fresquitas! 😍 Riego con 0,5 litro de H20 pH 6,5 Día 50 (21/07) Training session! Hago limpieza del tercio inferior de la planta, de todas las ramas y nudos que no superan la línea del dosel marcada por el 4º nudo (1er topping) También hago topping (2º) a todas las ramas principales La idea es tener 12 ó 14 colas principales para que no se hagan muy altas De paso saco unos cuantos clones de las ramas inferiores eliminadas 😁💥 Para superar el estrés, hago las siguientes aplicaciones y riego: - Riego con 1 Litro de Té Vegetativo de Lurpe Solutions. Preparación: 24 horas con bomba de aire (oxigenación) con ingredientes: Green Sunrise 8 ml/L + Insect Frass 16 ml/L + Hummus Lombriz 8 ml/L + Melaza 1 ml/L + Kelp Hidrolizado 0,25 g/L - Aplicación foliar Kelp hidrolizado de Lurpe Solutions a 0,25 ml/l 💦Nutrients by Lurpe Solutions - www.lurpenaturalsolutions.com 🌱Substrate PRO-MIX HP BACILLUS + MYCORRHIZAE - www.pthorticulture.com/en/products/pro-mix-hp-biostimulant-plus-mycorrhizae

24.04.2026 Heute habe ich mich dazu entschlossen die Damen zu ernten. der Hauptpunkt welcher mich jetzt dazu gebracht hat zu ernten waren die trichome, es sind jetzt auf jeder Pflanze Bernstein farben zu erkennen. sie trinken auch nicht mehr all zu viel und ich musste am Ende nur noch alle 3 tage gießen anstatt alle 2 Tagen. sie sind jetzt grob getrimmt und trocknen und curen jetzt in der vcure von vivosun. ich werde noch mehr Bilder machen, sobald sie fertig sind. freue mich schon auf das Ergebnis. die buds werden jetzt 5 Tage getrocknet und dann 9 Tage gecured, also gibt es in 14 Tagen neue Bilder. ich wünsche allen die bei dem Contest mit machen viel glück und einen guten grow, am Ende sind wir alle Gewinner eines guten grows. danke an zamnesia und plagron für das bereitstellen der Samen und des düngers. es gab mir Mal die Chance einen Strain von zamnesia zu testen und in den dünger von plagron rein zu schnuppern. hat mir beides gefallen und ich werde drauf zurück greifen in Zukunft, ganz sicher. Update: 08.05.2026 Heute habe ich die Ernte aus der vcure geholt und habe mich echt gefreut. Sehr gut getrocknet und noch nicht crispy außen. Es gab nochmal eine kleine Beschneidung um die schönheiten von buds zu Geltung kommen zu lassen. Die vcure macht einen super Job und ich muss mich nicht um die ganzen Werte kümmern, das macht alles die vcure. Da ich in Deutschland lebe, muss ich leider alles bis auf 50g vernichten. Ich habe mir die schönsten headbuds aufgehoben und den Rest mit Katzenstreu von meiner Katze vermischt. Mir hat es im Herzen weh getan das machen zu müssen, jedoch will ich zu meiner eigenen Ruhe und Sicherheit im gesetzlichen Rahmen bleiben. Ergebnis: Es kamen getrocknet 481g raus, was ein ordentliches Ergebnis war bei einer 300w LED. Behalten darf ich mir 50g laut des deutschen Gesetzes.

Week 1 Flower – Roller Coster Haze (Zamnesia Seeds) Lights Flipped, Ride Ascending The ride has shifted — welcome to Week 1 of Flower for the Roller Coster Haze girls. We’ve officially flipped the lights to 11 hours on / 13 hours off, marking the start of their journey into bloom. While they’re not showing any floral signs just yet (no pistils or preflowers), this moment is crucial, it’s the beginning of the shift, and everything that follows builds from here. ⸻ Why 11/13 Light Cycle? Most growers run 12/12 — and while that’s great for many strains, we’ve chosen 11/13 for a specific reason: 🌒 Shortening the light period can help trigger earlier flowering and more aggressive hormonal shifts, particularly in sativa-dominant or haze genetics like these. 🌘 In nature, light hours gradually decrease, and this slightly shorter photoperiod mimics late-season sun, signaling to the plant that it’s time to reproduce. In our experience, this encourages a quicker transition into flower, sometimes with denser stacking and better resin development down the line. The trade-off? Slightly less daily photosynthesis, but with the right lighting power and nutrition, it more than balances out. ⸻ Nutrient Shift – From Start to Top As we flip into flower, we’ve also transitioned our nutrient formula to support the shift in energy: • Removed: • Aptus Start Booster – previously used to support early-stage root development and vegetative vigor. • Introduced: • Aptus Top Booster – same application rate (0.25 ml/L), but designed to stimulate early flower development, improve transition timing, and lay the groundwork for bloom stacking. Why this change? Because the hormonal shift has begun. We’re no longer supporting root initiation, now we’re priming the plant for floral identity, helping her internal systems prepare for the stretch, calyx development, and bloom site stacking. Our base feed remains: • Regulator – 0.25 ml/L • CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml/L • All-in-One Liquid – 1 ml/L • Top Booster – 0.25 ml/L ⸻ Growth & Structure Update These girls are branching like mad, spreading their wings and showing incredible vegetative structure just before stretch kicks in. Both phenotypes are looking stunning: • Pheno #2 & Pheno #3 • ~55 cm in height • Both with 8+ nodes, symmetrical branching, and healthy internode spacing. • Deep green leaves, upright posture, and zero signs of stress or deficiency. We’re expecting these girls to stretch considerably in the coming weeks, and we’re ready for the ride. ⸻ Environmental Snapshot – The Summer Stretch Begins Despite high temps, the girls are thriving. Here’s a readout of current conditions: • PPFD: 760 µmol/m²/s – measured via TrolMaster MBS PAR sensor, ensuring accurate canopy-level intensity. • Temperature: 31°C • Humidity: 50% • VPD: 2.23 kPa – yes, on the high side, but manageable for the moment. • CO₂: 632 ppm We’re aware that VPD is a touch aggressive, and we’re standing by for the arrival of the new AC unit to bring that back into optimal range. Still, the girls are handling it like champions, no curl, no droop, just upward movement and new growth. ⸻ Lights & Control Ecosystem Our lighting and environmental control setup continues to perform beautifully: • ThinkGrow Model One LEDs • Future of Grow LEDs • TrolMaster Tent-X Controller – managing: • CO₂ • Temp & Humidity • PPFD • Device sync • Spider Farmer GGS Controller for extraction fans • Dual 6” exhaust systems with carbon filters • One 6” filtered intake • All airflow dynamically managed via AeroFan + Spider Farmer extraction, allowing clean in/out cycles, keeping the air fresh and responsive. This is a precision ecosystem, designed to respond, not just run. ⸻ Final Thoughts – Lifting Off This may be Week 1 Flower, but it’s really the moment of lift-off. The girls are still pre-flower, yes but this is the space where momentum builds, energy collects, and the transformation begins. We’re shifting from vegetative growth into reproductive focus — and if this week’s energy is any sign, we’re in for a glorious bloom phase. The Roller Coster Haze journey continues , and it’s gaining speed.

Lots of crystal and white hairs.

11.12.2025 She's nearly ready to be cut off. Everyday now I'm checking her trichomes and she has got a lot of them 😅. Most are milky and just a few are golden. So some patience and the sweet point will be reached. Her smell is citric-sweet, very individual with notes of Whiskey and fireplace. Extremely sticky and obviously promissing to be very tasty. I am so happy about my "christmas-decission" 🌸💜

Having to feed every other day and she is drinking 7L of water. (3mL CalMag | 5mL Micro | 5mL Gro | 7.5mL Bloom (per gallon) She seems to be done stretching. Did a final prune and have the final form set. Going to start dialing back the N, she certainly has enough, and going to do a 0.5g top dressing of Sulphur. I want to start building up the mercaptans but don't want to over acidify the soil and prevent P uptake. Hopefully fall temperatures kick in soon, I'm seeing peak temps at canopy of 84°F @ 850PARR. The end of this week will be day 30 of flower (50%) so this will be the last week running this hot. **Update | She is still stretching** Plant has great vigor but terp wise so far not really impressed. Its certainly got some fruit to it but is also has this earthyness to it that just isn't my number. Regardless the update next week will be good. She is putting on some great colas much faster than its tent mate

Just finishing up strong waiting for it to ripen

Flowers filling out nicely this week!! She is fattening up very well!
