07.10. F39 CHAPTER TWELVE — WHEN THE MONSTER STARTS TO BLOOM October 7th, 2026 — Flower Day 39 Something has changed in the tent. For weeks, Zesty Bliss seemed almost obsessed with one thing: growing. Taller, wider, further into every available space. But now the stretch is finally behind us, and for the first time, the plants seem to have accepted their final structure. The jungle has stopped expanding and started transforming. Looking at the canopy today, the difference is impossible to miss. The flowers are no longer just little points scattered along the branches — they are becoming proper buds, stacking along almost every stem and slowly taking over the entire picture. After everything these girls have been put through with LST, HST, bending and heavy defoliation, this is the moment where the whole madness finally starts to make sense. What impresses me most is how well they are handling it. The leaves are still reaching towards the light, praying hard with perfect tension, and the plants look incredibly healthy despite everything that has happened above and below the canopy. And once again, my refreshed soil is quietly writing its own part of the story. This was my first real test of growing in previously used soil, and by now I think Zesty Bliss has made the verdict pretty clear: whatever is happening down there, she certainly doesn’t seem to mind. The monster hasn’t disappeared — she has simply changed her mission. The stretch is over, the flowers have taken control, and now the real show begins. Because if this is what she looks like at Flower Day 39, I genuinely want to see what she has planned for the weeks ahead.

Plucked a few more leaves but other than that just feed them this week including bloom. Also gave them some rice starch (from boiled rice water collection) on day 42 as a boost for the microbes 👍 Turned the IR off now and turned up to 34000lux

Week 4 and my plant is growing well but I think it has indica type leaves and not going to tall like sativa plants. Some leave are touching soil

Last days ahead... She is doing great... very tall nice big buds a great smell of citrus and blueberry... really amazing... Fingers crossed to the end... 🙏

7th of May Day 59 day 11 of 12/12 4 plants are looking healthy the stretch has started and and the canopy is starting to get a bit dense I may rom I’ve some large fan leaves on day 14 of 12/12 to give better airflow and allow for the lower growth to get more light, I can picture the colas already 😁🍁 ppm still going in at 650 ph 6.5, i top dressed each plant with fish blood and bone mean 3 table spoons to each 3gal pot on day 1 of flower

There isn’t a ton to report this week other than the two behind my garage are on their stretch, and the one in the garden is bulking up. It has been raining a lot here, I gave all two big dosages of cal/mag and tiger bloom. I figured most of the nutrients were washing through the soil. I haven’t noticed any nute burns, so I’ll likely keep feeding them once a week. I did some bud backbuilding on my garden plant about a week ago, because the other two didn’t look as developed, i snipped the tip of the buds on the other two about two days ago. I think overall I should have a pretty good yield this summer, I wish I had a bit more purple buds, but hey🤷‍♂️ Purple kush none the less. I’m signing out for the week, thanks for tuning in. Cheers.

Day 79 17/09/24 Tuesday Feed today using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6. Seeing good developments, buds forming nicely, divines are smaller denser structures but the buds are not lacking! Damn I'm surprised by 2L pots. Day 81 19/09/24 Thursday De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 only today. Day 83 21/09/24 Saturday Another feed to push this week they seem to be handling it 💚. Fattening up on the buds now and pistils starting to mature. Day 84 22/09/24 Sunday (End of week) Damn!! Noticed I have leaf rollers!!! Damn caterpillar, from moths. So I have removed affected leaves and areas and this AGAIN will affect yeilds on all plants...but I have determined the strains I will re run ! Let's hope we make it too the chop 😅💚

Langsam werden die kleinen Knospen ein wenig dicker. Wunderschöne Trichomen produktion.

The Mendo Frost has officially entered the flowering stage. She didn’t develop quite as much branching as I had hoped for, despite being trained very openly with plenty of space and light for the lower shoots. Nevertheless, she is an extremely healthy and vigorous plant with strong overall growth. At the beginning of the stretch, she is currently around 40 cm tall, and the first flower sites are developing nicely. This week I also heavily defoliated the inner canopy to improve light penetration and airflow and to give the remaining lower shoots a better chance to develop during the stretch. Overall, she has transitioned into flowering in excellent condition. Now it will be interesting to see how much height and structure she gains over the next couple of weeks.

De nuevo familia, estoy de vuelta para actualizar la 5 semana y la verdad que mal, que no esperaba tantos errores en un cultivo , pero el trasplante no les sentó muy bien , empezaron amarillear por abajo por falta de nutrientes , ya aporte N nitrógeno para ponerlas verdes pero bueno eso ralentizó algo el crecimiento a ver si las recuperamos al 100% y las pasamos a floración, veremos cómo crecen estos días. Seguiré aportando algún riego Rico en N nitrógeno para estimular el crecimiento y que cojan buen color. Volví a colocar el humidificador, en principio lo quite pero también pienso que les falto humedad esos días y tampoco ayudo , hasta ahora esto es todo espero no cometer más errores aquí, Buenos humos 💨💨

2.3.2024: More of the same. "Plants" are getting bushier. 2 Nodes with the 3rd coming through. Look healthy. Top soil is dry but a few millimeters below is still moist. Once the 3rd node fully develops i'm considering topping but we'll see. Definitely can tell the Crystal Meth has a different structure then the Emerald Fire OG. I'll add pics at some point today 2.4.2024: Watered 32oz at 6.3ph. No run off. 2.5.2024: No water today. Plant is still super moist. Temp hovers around 77-79 and RH has been struggling to stay at or above 60%, even with the humidifier on and the inline fan speed at 2. I've increased the humidity output with the goal of getting it to the 60%-65% range. Leaves are getting bigger and everything is nice and green but i'm surprised at the lack of vertical growth. Its only day 17 from seed so we've got time. Just raised the light to 14 inches from soil and increase power to 50%. 2.6.2024: Moving along nicely. Plant is a little stubby. Nodes are tightly spaced when compared to the Emerald Fire OG. Perhaps thats just the difference in genetics? Raised the light again to 16 inches from soil with the hope of inducing some vertical growth. 2.7.2024: No change to current state. Struggling for lower shoot development due to fan leaves blocking light access. I couldn't help myself so i clipped the single leaves on the bottom of the plant. Probably a big mistake but it'll be a learning lesson if it comes back to bite me. Not much change in vertical growth so i'm thinking about raising the light an inch or two to see if that will help them stretch. Watered 64oz of 6.3ph. Small bit of run off, ph also at 6.3. 2.8.2024: Day 20 from seed. At the moment, the very small haircut i gave the plant didn't seem to have any adverse affect. Lamp at 14 inches from top of the plant, still at 50% power(75watts). Fan leaves are nice and full but rather stubby without much outward growth so I can't really LST or even leaf tuck. There are 3 sets of shoots that i'm struggling to give ample light. Not sure when/if to increase power and/or change height. 2.9.2024: Day 21 from seed. End of week 3. Plant looks healthy but leaves aren't as flexible when compaired to prior days. Wouldn't say crispy or brittle, just a little firmer to the touch. No nutes given yet as the FFOF still has amendments the plant is using. First sign of sex showing too.

All good;)))))

Partial reset on this girl who is obviously stunted and struggling. Not all strains are created equal and experience combined with skill goes a long way. So, taking my lumps with this girl. So, long story short, I reduced the ppm by draining and replacing 2.5 gallons of ph'd RO w/cal-mag added. This resulted in bringing down the ppm to roughly 500 w/ph at around 5.6. Will continue to monitor ph, ppm, and water levels for the remainder of this week looking for stabilization. At that point, I will gradually raise the ppm levels. If she doesn't make it back before TKO is ready to flip, I may need to scrap her given limited space. Come on girl, let's go... Midweek 4 update: Well, time has come for a decision. I moved the PBCRbx over to the 3x3 grow tent, so I can continue to care for her. Clear case of too much nutrients (high ppm levels) that have stunted early stage veg growth. Tried monitoring and adjusting ph twice a day but ppm remained higher than range resulting in fan leave tips looking burnt. Also some nutrient lock out occurring. Given ppm remaining high and water level dropping, I decided it was time to do a complete flush. Emptied and thoroughly cleaned bucket, air stone, and air line exposed in bucket. RO water with cal-mag and nutrients ph'd to 5.5 w/ppms at roughly 625. A day after flushing, the PBCRbx is looking a lot better. As a back up, I am running a separate PBCRbx by Ethos in a 3 gal fabric of coco peat, which is doing very well.

Week 12 July 26. Plants are doing fine and recovering from main stem LST this week LST for a couple of the side branches that are blocking other bud sites opening up the canopy. white hairs are starting to show fed half dose 17-17-17 ( 7.5gr/30L) 10-20-30 (10gr/30L) cal-mag 2gr each and 15ml Root Juice (biobizz)
