I think 2 more weeks of flower for the normal phenos and a lot more weeks for my long veg. Pheno of Fat Banana

Flowering day 37 since time change to 12/12 h. Hey guys :-) The buds have developed incredibly nicely this week. The smell is getting more and more extreme :-) . The whole plant itself looks perfect 👍. The growth has slowly stopped as the full energy goes into the production of the buds. This week it was watered 3 times with 1.2 l each (nutrients see table above) They were individually inspected and checked for their health. Osmosis water for the coming week was refilled in a 100 l tank 👍. Have fun reading the diary and stay healthy 💚🙏🏻 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 You can buy this Nutrients at : https://greenbuzzliquids.com/en/shop/ With the discount code: Made_in_Germany you get a discount of 15% on all products from an order value of 100 euros. 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 You can buy this strain at : https://www.ripperseeds.com/en/feminized/kmintz-feminized-cannabis-seeds Water 💧 💧💧 Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC.

*UPDATE 04/21* Full Biobizz schedule 8th week fertigation for OG Kush Lower leaves gradually come to a chlorotic state due to N movement to the top. An expected outcome due to no N administration since weeks. *UPDATE 03/24* Irrigations for Amnesia Haze @1.8 lts of cal mag treated RODI water @0.3EC pH 6.5 *UPDATE 04/24* Pics uploaded since a long time ago. The Amnesia is already at peak blooming, rather short and to the highest limit of nutrient uptake with significant clawing and dark foliage with nothing else going wrong whatsoever. Nutrient burn is virtually non existent but the plant is clearly in its limits and anything more than that should bring it to halt and burn. Orgatrex is the culprit here. It took some more than needed and it cope rather good:) Testing for this strain has concluded, same goes for the OG Kush which bulks up rather slow. Nutrient administration for both them plants is over from now on. The young one is half a week old. And it ll take the place of one of them along with a BCN Critical from seed stockers.

Esta semana empezaron a aparecer carencias de calcio en las gelato kush Los 260ppm/0.5ec del agua de llave no contienen el calcio suficiente así que empeze a suplementar 100ppm/0.2ec de calcio dejando la base a 360ppm/0.7ec + Feeding short 450ppm/0.9ec Total 810ppm/1.6ec

Day 127. Chop day !!!! Zkittalicious #6 is my first plant without any airy or small bud !!!! Plus he will be like others in 100g range ... #2 should beat all single plant records ;))) Happy Growing !!!

First day of the 4th week

? Blueberry Muffin – Pheno B Week 5 | Letting the Plant Choose Her Own Pace One of the reasons I love growing multiple phenotypes from the same seed pack is that they constantly remind me of one important lesson… Genetics always have the final word. Even when plants share the same parents, the same environment, the same nutrition and exactly the same lighting schedule, each one develops its own personality. Blueberry Muffin Pheno B is proving exactly that. While her sister is already comfortably stepping into flowering, this lady is taking her time, continuing to build structure before fully committing to bloom. And honestly… I’m perfectly happy to let her decide. ⸻ 🌱 The 12/12 From Seed Journey For anyone joining this diary for the first time, welcome! This entire project is being grown using the 12/12 from seed method, meaning the lighting schedule has remained at 12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness from the very beginning of the grow. Unlike traditional cultivation, where growers decide exactly when flowering begins by changing the light cycle, this method leaves much of that decision to the plant itself. Each phenotype transitions when its genetics decide the moment is right. That’s exactly what we’re seeing here. Although the first pre-flower signs are beginning to appear, I still consider this another week of vegetative growth. She simply hasn’t committed enough to flowering for me to officially change the diary yet. It’s a perfect example of how two sisters can follow completely different timelines while growing side by side. ⸻ 🌿 Building Structure Before Flowers Rather than rushing her into bloom, this week focused on preparing the strongest possible foundation. Pheno B naturally grows with an extremely compact structure, producing very short internodal spacing and dense foliage. That beautiful compactness comes with one small challenge… Light struggles to reach the interior of the canopy. To help with that, I spent the week using gentle Low Stress Training together with regular leaf tucking to expose developing shoots hidden beneath the large fan leaves. Toward the end of the week I also performed a very light defoliation. Nothing aggressive. Just removing a few carefully selected leaves to improve airflow and allow more light to reach the inner branches. Sometimes less really is more. By the end of the week the results were already becoming visible, with several lower shoots responding by stretching upward and beginning to develop into future flowering branches. Exactly the response I was hoping for. ⸻ 💧 Hand Feeding Continues Unlike her sister, Pheno B remains completely hand-watered. For now I want full control over how she receives her nutrients while continuing to observe how this phenotype develops naturally. Hand watering also allows me to monitor her appetite closely and make adjustments whenever necessary based on her individual needs rather than following the same routine as the AutoPot system. As always, every plant earns its own management strategy. ⸻ 🍽️ Feeding This week’s feeding consisted of the complete Plagron program, including: • Terra Grow – 1.8 ml/L • Terra Bloom – 1.8 ml/L • Pure Zym – 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L • Power Roots – 1 ml/L • Power Buds – 1 ml/L The introduction of Terra Bloom and Power Buds marks another exciting milestone as the plant slowly begins preparing for reproductive growth. Although she’s still spending most of her energy building structure, it’s the perfect moment to begin supporting what’s coming next. Solution parameters remained stable with an EC around 1.78 mS/cm and a pH of approximately 6.02, providing a balanced nutrient profile while keeping the root zone healthy. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment The room continues running under intentionally warm conditions. Day temperatures averaged around 31.1°C, nighttime temperatures remained close to 25°C, relative humidity stayed around 72%, and atmospheric CO₂ measured approximately 693 ppm. Those humidity levels are still intentional. At this stage I’m encouraging vigorous vegetative expansion and allowing the plants to establish as much healthy biomass as possible before gradually reducing humidity later in flowering. It’s all part of preparing for healthier flowers in the weeks ahead. ⸻ 📸 This Week Behind the Lens This week’s photographs beautifully capture the personality of Pheno B. She’s noticeably shorter than her sister, yet incredibly dense. The studio side profiles reveal a stocky plant packed with tightly spaced growth sites, while the bird’s-eye photographs highlight just how compact her canopy has become. Several close-up images also document the early effects of leaf tucking and the gentle defoliation, showing new shoots beginning to emerge from areas that were previously hidden beneath large fan leaves. Watching those branches respond over only a few days is one of those quiet victories that makes plant training so rewarding. ⸻ 🔍 Looking Ahead Next week should answer one of the biggest questions of this grow. Will Pheno B finally commit fully to flowering? Or will she continue investing another week into structure before stretching? Either outcome is perfectly welcome. If she continues vegetative growth, I’ll maintain gentle training and keep opening the canopy to encourage even more secondary branching. If flowering officially begins, the focus will shift toward supporting the stretch while maintaining an open, evenly lit canopy. Whatever she decides… I’ll simply help her become the best version of herself. ⸻ 💚 Thank You Thank you to everyone following this journey and taking the time to grow alongside me.

It's been a good week for the girls they're stretching into flower real nice. Plant height is 14 to 20 inches. I just got the dripper setup going at the end of the week and will be fussing with it till I'm happy. I will be watching the ph and ppm's in the res to make sure they're on point and topping off when needed. Thanks for looking😊

6/15. Glad I listened to my intuition and held off watering. IT Rained andctheb again last night. Plants seem to be doingvreal well. Slight burn on lower leaves where it was before from being in the garage and I found on spot that LOOKED like it could've been caused by a pillar but it's right on a burn. I sefoliated one leaf. This is minor stuff. Next watering I'll be adding silica. I'm not giving nutes until the plants tell the need them. The 3 gallon ones may receive nutes first as they'll run out. I'll update as I progress. Went back over at 8:30. It's just overcast with showers. Plants seemed to like it. They all look good. Noticed a chunk out of a leaf and a POSSIBLE pillar spot. I'm going to have to get the BT out and and give the girls an application. I'm waiting until they settle in a bit more though. I need to start LST as well AND the light dep. Unfortunately "life" has made things difficult. I'll get back over there today though and I'll start the light dep. Kinda makes me wonder though. The 1pth planet I wanted to light deo is tge same size as the others in the much bigger containers. The thought came that maybe I should just hold on to them as extras in case something happens. I also am going to start silica next watering but it will be a few weeks before any nutes are given. UPDATE: WENT BACK OVER AT FIVE AND TOOK ACSHOT TON OF PICTURES. IM TRYING TO UOLOAD NOW. THINGS ARE POPPING OFF AND IM GETTING A NICE SWEET SKUNKY ODOR. WHILE I WASCTHERE WE GOT A QUICK SHOWER. DIDNT LAST MORE THAN TEN MINUTES BUT IT RAINED HARD. I FOUND A TEMPORARY SPOT TO LIGHT DEP THE TWO PURPLE PUNCH AND THE ONE TENTH PLANET. I DONT SEE ANY LIGHT LEALS AND ITS SURE AS HELL DARKER THAN IT IS AT NIGHT. I'LL SEE HOW IT GOES LEQVING THE COVER ON ALL NIGHT. IF IT DOESNT WORK I MAY JEED TO ADD A FAN OR CHANCECTHE SPACE. I ALMOST DIDNT WANT TO DO THIS AS THE 10TH PLANET IS KEEPING PACE WITH ITS SISTERS, DESPITE THE SMALLER POT. OH WELL I WANT TO GIVE IT A SHOT AND I DONT WANT MY CAGE OVER CROWDED. I'M LOOKONG TO DO A 6:30 TO 6:30 SCHEDULE. 6/16 First night of light dep for the three little ones. I won't be able to call them that soon. I'm currently trying to upload a video. My grow buddy mentioned the droopiness of a couple of my plants in this video and how I hadn't been watering. This kinda scared me so I ran over and checked the too few inches on the two that had a little droop and came out dry. I had some water already phed ready to go (I'm hoping that the ph doesn't change if it's stored a day or two) and used the gallon to moisten the dry topsoil. Looking back over my diary we have had nothing but rain. I then tried the "lift the pot method" and came to the conclusion that these bags were indeed still holding moisture. I assumed they would be considering the thunderstorms we've had. I held off on fullt watering because the weather said the next dry day is going to be Monday. Today is Friday so thats two solid days of rain. Three if you count today through the night. I concentrated my watering of the one gallon on the couple plants that appeared to droop. If it doesn't rain like they say it will I will need to water. I need to set up a decent watering schedule but I need it to hold off raining long enough to do so. UPDATE: I WENT BACK OVER AND PUT THE 3 GALS IN FOR BED AND CHECKED OUT THE REST OF THE GARDEN. I WATERED THE 3 GAL GIRLS A LITTLE MORE SINCE THEY WONT BE OUTSIDE. THE BIT OF WATER I GAVE SEEMED TO HELP LIFT SOME OF THE GIRLS. AT LEAST I THINK IT DID. THE RAIN SHOULDVE COME ALREADY. I WOULDVE WATERED MORE HAD THE BAGS NOT BEEN SO HEAVY. 6/17 Rained all night which is good. Brought the three transplants out but left them under the overhang so they. Dont get soaked. So far light depoing is going good. Well its only been two nights but we'll see. I'll update as I go. Not feeling well today. Went back over and checked on the plants and did a video. Probably won't get uploaded until tomorrow. I'm giving it a shot. It's raining in good shape. Plants looked fine when I was there. I need to get my supports and my trellis in place. Video won't upload. No suprise. I'll get it tomorrow. 6/18 Uploaded videos if they fuck up from me editing I'm gonna be pissed. Anyway it's still pouring with high winds. I added a couple supports where it looked like it needed it. I need to put my trellis up. I've been able to keep up with the light dep and those plants haven't been used and abused. They stay in the building facing the sun when the weather is this bad. I think they're looking great. I may start a new diary just for them. Sun came out around four. Trying to upload a couple videos but doesn't look like it's going to happen. Tucked the three little ones in at six. It had stopped raining and the wind died down some. If adverse conditions create good plants then I'm on the way to a great harvest. Minor bleaching and burns on a few lower fan leaves and some wrinkling on some from wind burn other than that plants seem to be acclimated. Did a video but will have to wait until tomorrow to upload 6/19 It's not raining! We got four inches this past storm lol. Having the bags raised on pollens I believe has greatly helped. As did the high winds that help dry the soil in the bag. Had to add a few temporary supports. Light dep is going good. Adjusted amd found a better spot. I'm considering getting "pool noodles" or some other thing like a Hulu hoops or pvc pipe and making either a frame on the roof for the entire cage or on top of each individual plants posts so I could roll clear plastic over it when it rains. I'm thinking about later on in the fall when this could really help. I found a roll of plastic. Also thought about putting that up on the back wall but I didn't. What I'm doing right now is working. I just need to keep up with it. I also need a solid watering schedule to stick too. It's hard when each plants needs are different. Oh well. I'm just happy to be growing again. I pray to the cannabis gods and the Lord above himself that I'm not plagued with the problems of last year. 6/20. I'm sick as fuck but I got the little girls out in the sun. Light dep is going good. Plants look great. I'll update when I feel better and if I do anything. Still feel like shit. Luckily I looked up just in time to get to the grow and put the little ones to bed. They were thirsty (especially the bushy 10th planet so I gave them about 3/4 of a gallon of water. Got lots of run off from 10th planet. Didn't notice as much from the others but I was hurrying. I'll upload later. Still sick. 6/21 Plants seem to be doing great. I removed some lower growth on a few just to see how they respond. I'm going to do some defoliation down low and I want to see how the plants respond. I'm planning my first full watering Thursday as we have a real good stretch of weather after that. Grow bags are still heavy as hell so they have sufficient water. I'll be adding silica nextcl watering. Not time for nutes but I think it would be okay to start the silica and in another week I might start small doses of nutes. The light dep on the little girls is go8ng great! It's cool I'll get to sample some of these strains before fall. I'll update after I do something. Tucked the girls in at 6. I might need to think about transplanting that 10th planet in the 3 gallon. I watered until runoff yesterday and it's light as hell today. Plus I fimked it and it's bushy as hell. I've Bern turning it si it gets all angles of the sun. I have a bag of 707 left and a 5 gallon bucket with holes drilled all over it like an air pot and a ten gallon grow bag. This will take some thought. Hot af today. I wad able to lift the grow bags so I decided tomorrow will be the girls first real watering. I think I'll be adding silica and possibly kelp me kelp you due to the heat stress I've been noticing. Nothing bad just a few tacoed leaves. I've had several people that have seen my grow in person tell me that this is by far the healthiest (not biggest I've had bigger) but by farcthe healthies5 crop I've grown. They believe I'll have my best year ever this year. I hope they are right. Vid won't be uploaded until tomorrow. 6/22 WATERED TODAY. I'm still a little gun shy with watering. That fusarium last year pretty much traumatized me. I left the container plants alone. I gave them a little water but not enough to do much. I used a pump sprayer on a mist setting and went one by one and back around gently watering the entire medium. This took forever and I'll be finding a different way to water. I hope this was enough water. I'll check later on and if they look like they want more I give it to them. I started LST on the light dep 10th planet and tucked some branches of a another under the tomato cage. I had missed that earlier. I also went around and cleaned up the bottoms on most. Getting rid of things that will amount to nothing. I noticed what looked like thrip damage on ONE leaf on ONE plant. I also saw a chunk missing from a grasshopper bite and a finger of a fan leaf petiol was broken so I'm going to need to get my ipm up and running. I'm unsure whether I'll be using chemicals or predators. Probably BT and spinosad. That's what I've had the best luck with. I also noticed bottom leaves dying off on the bottom of a couple plants. It was where the burns were though so I'm almost 100% its just related to the light burns they got when i first put them up. I'll be updating the diary as I do more stuff.

I got my work cut out for me trimming wise! Boy these are some big bushes!

Ernte

The Jedi came down at 11 weeks. The other blackberry came down at 8.5 weeks, for a total production of 2.5zips plus 7.5 zips. I've had to estimate the Jedi at the moment, there was 1050 gm wet weight of trimmed bud on minimal stem. I would expect the dry weight to be 21% of that but I will update the numbers next week. She is a spacious plant and very branchy but you can continually trim branches as you defoliate throughout the grow, she responds well to both. Floats like a butterfly and hits like a steam train. It's been over two weeks since the Blackberry was harvested and she's all gone now, never even got a chance to dry properly. Basically she kept me going while waiting for this Jedi, who I already knew was going to be soaking with resin. I was hoping for 8 zips total with 4 for each plant but I ended up only getting 2.5 on the blackberry but I got an easy 7.5 of mostly grade a bud so a total of 10 zip for both plants in the same pot. They were expected to mature together but the black berry was a week or so early, so as you can see in the root shots her roots had died and made the Jedi roots rot as well but this shows you the resiiance of the Shallow Water Culture as I do it because of added redundancy, I could not even tell there was a root problem didn't after the Jedi at all but it's good to be away of, I'm back to single pots for a while now.

30.03.2021 Beginn mit LST

Plants 1 & 3 are doing good. #1 is a beast so far. I will probably start flushing plant #3 here soon, she got stunted and I don’t think she’s really packing on weight anymore. So part of plant #2 was dry enough for jars after 5 days. Dry trimmed about an 38g. Still have about 2-3x as much left to trim. I think I’ll wet trim the other two it seems way harder to dry trim. I’ll have a total dry weight for plant #2 tomorrow.

In dieser Woche ist nicht sehr viel passiert. Ich hab gemerkt das ich zu wenig calmag benutz habe aber der Mangel wurde gut behoben von mir denk ich. Ich hab jeden haultrieb getoppt dadurch hab ich anstatt 4 hautriebe 8 hauptriebe. Jetzt wird wieder gewartet sodas ich denke das Ende der Woche ich nochmals getoppt habe und alles einfach hochfahren lassen kann.
