25.07 Watering with 200 - 400 - 400 - 400 Used only 4ml/L TOP-Max (honestly I forgot about the fact, that I have to use the BioBizz Products only once in a week and I already added 4ml before I realized it…) 26.07 my neighbor complained about the smell one store under my balcony (told me he can smell it on the street 50 meters behind my balcony) 28.07 watering 400 - 400

02/28/2021 What a difference in a week! Potted up GSC To 1 gallon pot, Blue Dream next, pics coming soon. (Later tonight) Blue Dream potted up and watering done. Both have nice side shoots for clones. GSC is at 10" tall, Bluedreamatic Dream is at7.5" Also took 5 cuttings of Wreak Havoc hope to have 2 of each clone (GSC,BLUE DREAM,WREAK HAVOC) for outside, I believe I got the lemony kush pheno which is perfect for my climate!

Week 2 of flower The Red Hot Cookies and Lemon Orange are really stretching out. Glad I put them at the back of the tent. The Mimosa X Orange Punch is taking her time as far as flowering goes. The Black Apple Hitchcock (there is a separate diary for this plant) has been even slower transitioning into flower. But all in all the plants are happy so I am happy. 6.0 pH 500 ppm 65F water temp 71 tent temp 41 % RH

What’s uppp! Week thirteenth (five in bloom) is behind us.✌️🌼 This week, she packed on even more frost. ❄️🍓 I tried increasing the base AN nutrients to 2.5 ml/l, but that seemed to be a bit too much for her and she started showing slight burnt leaf tips. 😅 I adjusted the feeding schedule back to the dosage listed above for the following waterings. Watering volume was reduced to 6L, but frequency was increased to every other day. Overall, she seems very happy, and so is the grower! 👌🌱 Good luck every one! ✌️ Any tips or advice are always welcome 😂🔥 CZ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Servus, třináctý týden, pátý týden v květu, máme za sebou. ✌️🌼 Tento týden zase o něco víc obalila cukrem. ❄️🍓 Zkusil jsem zvýšit základ AN na 2,5ml/l, na holku už to bylo asi hrana a chytla trochu špičky listu do černa. 😅 Další zálivky jsem upravil dávkování, které je uvedeno výše. Zálivka snížena na 6l, ale zvýšená četnost na obden. Myslím, že holka je oukland, panícček je spokojeny! 👌 Ať se daří! ✌️kdyby měl někdo nějaký typy/rady uvítám váš komentář. 😂🔥

Day 95 GDP harvested and starting dry process. Day 95 for the Tropicana cookies purple auto and northern thunderfuck auto. Both looking great. Tropicana really starting to reek the whole tent out sweet funky arouma. Looks light it’s starting to fade out nitrogen as well 🤞 Northern is stacking up buds hopefully will continue fattening for a couple more weeks. Soil all the flower tents look very alive and healthy. Lots of wigglers thriving under the mulch layer.

Pics from day 56. We have some cloudy trichomes, a few still haven’t gone cloudy but a few are amber as well. We may be harvesting by week 9 which is exciting. I have been giving her around a half gallon of water every two or three days manually watering the soil with a watering can. I occasionally give her a spurt of water with the drippers which we used to use exclusively to water, but around week 4 or 5 of flower I realized she needed more water than my drippers could handle. I think the new humidifier helped pack on bud size. Checked under the pot and noticed that there are roots shooting out the bottom. Super proud to take it to this point. This is a truly beautiful and amazing smelling strain with many other amazing qualities. Can’t wait to grow more

Day 28 I’ve been training the girls branches this week and they are filling out nicely.Watered with recharge and ph 6.5 they still are not drinking heavy but watering when pots are dry.I increased the light intensity to 50 percent power and they are taking it well.Ive noticed signs of flower development so i will top dress with 50/50 Gaia green power bloom/gaia green 4,4,4 and water with recharge.

Got 2301 into her final home in a 3 gallon pot, I used grow dots at 1 table per gallon of medium and made the bottom 3rd of the soil a little hot with fresh ocean Forrest soil, and purple cow non manure compost.. and moved her to my new ac infinity 3x3 tent!

🍋🍒 Lemon Cherry Gelato Week 8 From Seed Week 4 Flower (12/12) The Room Is in Full Reproductive Mode ⸻ 🔁 Quick Recap — The Road to Week 4 12/12 from seed. No extended veg. Early structure built under restraint. Defoliation last week to open airflow and light pathways. And now? We are no longer initiating flowers. We are building them. Week 4 is the bridge between stretch and stacking. This is where architecture becomes yield. ⸻ 🌿 Structural Expression — Why These Girls Stand Out Lemon Cherry Gelato isn’t the tallest in the room. But structurally? Among the most dominant. Wide lateral branching. Thick stems. Uniform top distribution. Deep, lush green coloration. Post-defoliation response was extremely strong. No stall. No sulking. No nutrient imbalance signals. You wouldn’t guess they were stripped last week. That tells us: • Root system is robust. • Environmental stability is real. • Carbohydrate reserves were sufficient. • Stress recovery window was optimal. Week 4 recovery like this sets up week 6 density. ⸻ 🌡️ Environmental Analysis — High Energy, High Demand Current conditions: • Canopy temp: ~28°C • RH: ~70% • CO₂: 1000+ ppm • PPFD: 800 → 1300 µmol/m²/s This is a metabolically aggressive room. At ~28°C with enriched CO₂, plants can process higher photon density efficiently. But week 4 flower adds a new layer: Bud mass is forming. Transpiration shifts. Microclimate inside the canopy thickens. 70% RH at this density is not ideal long-term. Not panic territory — but now it’s a countdown. Over the next 7–10 days, gradual RH reduction will be necessary as stacking intensifies. Airflow and undercanopy lighting are currently preventing stagnation — and it shows. No mold indicators. No soft tissue collapse. No stress clawing. But vigilance increases from here. ⸻ 💡 Lighting Strategy — Controlled Intensity Main lighting intensity has increased with canopy height. At week 4: 1300 µmol/m²/s is high. But with CO₂ enrichment and no bleaching, they’re tolerating it. We are not chasing light for ego. We are watching leaf posture. Currently: • No tacoing. • No upper bleaching. • No stress fade. That means intensity is within metabolic capacity. ⸻ 🔦 Undercanopy Lighting — Minor Burn Explained Let’s address it clearly. One branch showed minor localized burn from undercanopy proximity. Why now in week 4? Because: • Bud mass increases reflectivity. • Leaf angle changes. • Tissue sensitivity rises during reproductive build phase. The under-light hit a close node. Symptoms: • Slight edge burn. • No necrotic spread. • No systemic reaction. Action: • Light repositioned. • Distance corrected. • Continued daily inspection. Response: She stabilized immediately. This is why daily plant handling matters. Yes, we physically take them out. Yes, it’s work. Yes, it’s worth it. ⸻ 💧 Root Zone & Feeding — Transition to Potassium Demand Soil EC: ~0.9 Watering EC: ~2.4 pH: ~6.5 Medium temp: ~22.5°C Moisture: ~94% with active dry-backs In week 4 flower, demand shifts: Nitrogen importance decreases. Potassium and phosphorus importance increase. Micronutrient balance becomes critical. Dry-back rhythm is stable. No EC stacking. No salt stress. No overwatering symptoms. They are drinking aggressively. That’s what you want entering bud expansion phase. ⸻ 🌸 Pistil Development — Now It Means Something Different In week 1, pistils signal initiation. In week 4, pistil density signals stacking potential. Right now we see: • Dense white pistil clusters. • Even site distribution. • No re-veg behavior. • No hormonal confusion. Flower genes are not just active. They are stabilized. The plant has committed to reproduction. What happens in the next 10–14 days determines final structure weight. ⸻ The Room Is Alive — But Heavier From the time-lapse frames: The room looks thicker now. More mass between nodes. Less empty space. Leaves are still praying. Stems are supporting weight confidently. No structural bending yet. We move plants daily: • Watering outside tent. • Full inspection. • Leaf repositioning. • Light proximity adjustments. This is not automation farming. This is hands-on cultivation. The room breathes. We respond. ⸻ What To Expect — Weeks 5–6 Stretch will fully slow Vertical stacking will accelerate Calyx swelling will begin RH must gradually drop Light intensity may need micro-adjustments Trichome heads will begin visible formation This is density window opening. ⸻ 🚫 What Not To Expect No dramatic fade yet No final terpene expression No harvest timing predictions No heavy amber trichomes We are mid-race. ⸻ 🙏 Gratitude — Because This Is Shared To GrowDiaries — for hosting the documentation.

With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. 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.

Hello guys. My plants are flowering well, but I thought I was almost ready to harvest but it seems it's still growing.. How much do you think I'll get from the taison ? And for the fat banana ? I have no idea of the quantity I'll get so I'm curious to know your guess ! 🌾

Hello growers !! Another week here in cultivation. This past week I noticed that the flowers have grown new pistils, which means that it will take a few more weeks for the harvest. This week I acquired a microscope to see the trichomes and I saw that most are milky and transparent. I want to harvest with 30% amber, I believe 2 or 3 more weeks. In this final stretch the anxiety increases, but I am happy with the results and I will take it to the end to have the best smoke! 😜

2nd week into flowering and she stretch a bit. Had to lst the sides more to get the middle nodes strecthing.. only fed tap water every 2 days as needed..kept an eye on the temps and humidity . 60°-80° / 40%-55%. .so far no issues. Easy enjoyable organic grow only using kindsoil super soil and cocoloco bush doctor with some cover crops alfalfa and clovers...some companion plants dill,basil,cilantro, clovers in a pot next to it to repel all sorts of critters....will update next week on the growth. Enjoy.

Day 71 Flower (Day 113) Today was the first day of week 11 of flower and another uneventful day. I took a couple of pics and gave the right girl 2.5 liters of pH 6.3 water. That was it. Day 72 Flower (Day 114) Yet another exciting day - open the tent, look at the trichomes, snap a pic, close the tent, repeat. The left girl is fading, but her trichomes are all cloudy. On the other hand, the right girl is hardly fading at all but shows some amber here and there. Day 73 Flower (Day 115) Today, all I did was to give each girl 2.5 liters of pH 6.3 water. Done Day 74 Flower (Day 116) Didn't do fuckall today. I'm so ready to harvest these girls. Already a solid month of overtime. I will cut in a few days I think. Amber trichomes be damned. 11 weeks of flower is enough! Day 75 Flower (Day 117) I gave the left girl 2.5 liters of pH 6.5 water today and checked the trichomes on both girls (again). That was it. Day 76 Flower (Day 118) Woohoo! I'm finally starting to see some amber trichomes here and there. The end is near! Day 77 Flower (Day 119) Today was the last day of week 11 of flower, and the grow is drawing to an end. I had a closer look at the trichomes, and they are showing enough amber to satisfy me. I think I will chop tomorrow on day 120. It's been a fun grow, and I have learned a bunch, but after over a month of overtime, I'm also ready to close down shop and have a bit of break.

She's done! Whew! I can say that this wasn't my easiest grow. She had some issues in the beginning, due to over fertilizing (see diary) but she managed to produce some beautiful crystallized nuggets. I flushed her for a week but she looked so ready, and she's so loud, I had to chop her down. Stay tuned for the smoke report.

Recuerdan la rama que se quebró, resulta ser la más alta de la planta. Al ver que la grieta del tallo puede ser un peligro inminente le aplique tierra de diatomeas en la grieta, debido al cilicio Biodisponible en las diatomeas esto potenciará las paredes celulares y engrosara las ramas

Ultima limpieza de bajos, y a florecer!! las plantas presentas 3 fenotipos, pero 3-4 características diferentes, algunas no ramifican apenas, algunas mucho y otras lo normal, Las de porte grande y robusto tienen un espacio entre nudos entre 6-7cm, pero sus ramas no cogen un vigor muy alto. luego hay otro fenotipo mas pequeño con espacios entre nudos de 4cm que si tienen gran vigor sus ramas. y otras que son como una mezcla entre las dos.

Today is Day 66 & chopped down this morning to hang the whole upside down. Lower my AC to 68 but in the dry room it at 63 degree & humidity at 53 working it way up. Gotta to keep the door shut. On my calendar marked Day 1 Harvest. Around Day 12-14 will do the dry trim & update for harvest post. Will go in Grove Bag ✔️

Last week we noticed one of the ladies had begun to show sex. A couple calyxes with barely visible white hairs coming out of them. Seeing as there's no electricity where the garden is located we opted for a 1500 lumen LED lantern, that we turn on at 11:pm every night for about 40 minutes to and hour. This seemed to have done the trick as no more hairs have been seen and the vegging process is back on track.
