I'm expecting at least another week on the hubba bubba as it's getting nice and thick, and I haven't noticed any new pistols form in a few days. The ABxRKO is still trucking, and it makes me excited for the next drop that tree1four did. It smells heavy on the burger side, but not super meaty. It has a slightly sweet gassy meaty smell to it.

In the end I was pretty happy and surprised about the dense and hard buds! Especially when I think about the way we had to move this plant in a setup that was completely crap except the LEDs.

Bud is unbelievable its everywhere. Strong smell for sure and ultra sticky. Frost is really coming out. Cut off the enzymes komplete I read in flower it can stress the plant. 45 days from the flip Always 5.8 ph 600 ppm A little h202 Plant goes through about 18.9 liter jug every 2 days. I feed it RO water. Try to change and scrub the rez every 2 weeks.

Week 2 - Vegetation | Black Diamond Auto Pheno B Hello everyone, and welcome back to another update from the 12/12 From Seed adventure. Today we’re checking in on Black Diamond Auto Pheno B as she continues her journey through the early vegetative stage. For anyone joining the diary for the first time, this project follows a 12/12 From Seed cultivation approach, documenting each phenotype individually from germination through harvest. One of the most enjoyable parts of this process is watching how different plants express themselves, even when growing side by side under the exact same environmental conditions. Black Diamond Auto Pheno B has certainly started developing a personality of her own. Throughout Week 2, growth remained strong and consistent, with the plant finishing the week around the sixth to seventh node while continuing to build a compact and balanced structure. The canopy is developing beautifully, and when viewed from above, the symmetry is immediately noticeable. Every new growth point is stacking neatly, creating the kind of shape that growers love seeing during the early stages of development. One of the most interesting observations this week comes from a small quirk found in one of the earlier leaves. Rather than forming completely separate leaflets, two fingers appear partially fused together, creating a unique shape that immediately catches the eye. Fortunately, this has remained purely cosmetic. New growth emerging from the center of the plant is developing normally, showing healthy leaf formation and excellent vigor. These small genetic curiosities are one of the reasons documenting phenotypes individually is so rewarding. While Pheno A introduced us to a beautiful camouflage-like leaf pattern, Pheno B decided to express herself through a slightly unusual leaflet structure. Neither trait has affected health or performance, but both contribute to the unique story of each individual plant. Beyond that little piece of personality, everything else continues moving in the right direction. The transplant completed previously appears to have been accepted without issue. Root development is clearly supporting vigorous above-ground growth, and the plant continues expanding steadily with each passing day. Stem development is strong, leaf size is increasing, and the center growth is becoming increasingly active as the week progresses. Coloration remains excellent throughout the canopy. The foliage displays a healthy, vibrant green tone from top to bottom, while leaf posture remains upright and confident throughout the photoperiod. The plant shows no signs of stress and continues responding positively to the stable environment provided inside the tent. Nutritionally, the feeding program remains simple and focused on establishing a strong foundation for future growth. Plagron Terra Grow provides the primary vegetative nutrition, while Power Roots supports continued root development following transplant. Pure Zym assists in maintaining a healthy root zone by helping break down organic matter within the substrate, and Sugar Royal continues as part of the overall cultivation strategy for supporting healthy plant metabolism throughout the cycle. Sometimes the most successful weeks are the quiet ones. No major interventions, no major corrections—just healthy growth, stable conditions, and the plant doing exactly what nature designed it to do. Overall, Week 2 has been another excellent week for Black Diamond Auto Pheno B. The structure is beautiful, the growth rate remains impressive, and the plant continues proving that a little early quirkiness can coexist perfectly with outstanding health and vigor. Thank you to everyone following along, supporting the diary, sharing advice, and contributing to the incredible growing community that makes projects like these so enjoyable to document. A special thank you as always to Zamnesia for the genetics, Plagron for the nutrition, and to all growers around the world who continue sharing their knowledge, successes, and lessons learned. Until next week, growers love and happy growing everyone. 🌱💚

My Rainbow Saltz plant is a medium-sized beauty in the tent. It's got really nice, healthy leaves and an incredibly strong aroma already. I'm excited to see how it develops! Okay, This past week has been absolutely fantastic! The weather has been incredible, and I've been able to keep the windows open almost the entire time. My plants are thriving in the humidity, and the VPD has been perfect. Everything just feels so balanced and in check.

Day 64 my baby is going really well by now, she s been running fast until now and I think that’s enough with fertiliser. From today o start my flush, I will give today my last dose of regulator and from next irrigation just on controlled water until the end of maturation, I want this baby to eat everything . day 65 started flushing. ph controlled water at 6.0 i think 20 more days at max before m Day 68 First check with micro today. The baby looks already milky and amber on the top buds but the rest of the plant is still transparent. I’ll wait at least until this weekend for a re check maybe I’ll cut her in two rounds. As I be been watching a lot with micro I noticed so many dust and other stuff on the buds so I think I’ll wash her in water. Today watered ph 6. Let’s see! 🌱🔥🌱🔥🌱🔥🔥

9-9 Smooth sailing. Recharge 750ml 9-11 Day 17 So, I was debating hard, to let her go or lst her. She made up her mind instead. Shorty didn't wanna bend. 😱 I hope she stays between 20-32 inches. 🍀😁 9-12 Big water 2-2.5 liters. Shes being a little stubborn to go. 9-14 Just leaf tucked. Shes still small and stubborn! She also doesn't want to flower yet, unlike her sisters! But, that just means good news for me! Last day of the week!

Greetings, fellow cultivators and stewards of the green realm! It's time to embark on the Week 4 Flower Report for the enchanting Jealousy in the Power Buds competition. The grow room has transformed into a sanctuary of blossoming beauty, and our verdant queen continues to captivate with her botanical grace. As we venture deeper into the fourth week of flowering, Jealousy's prayerful demeanor remains steadfast. It's like a perpetual botanical meditation, where every leaf is a testament to the serene communion between plant and light. The grow room echoes with the hum of chlorophyll, and Jealousy stands as a living embodiment of lush greenery. The flower formation is a sight to behold. Buds, adorned in trichome-laden splendor, emerge like jewels on a botanical crown. The pace at which they're developing is nothing short of remarkable—almost turbocharged. It's like witnessing a botanical sprint, where each bud races toward maturity with an urgency that adds an extra layer of excitement to our horticultural odyssey. And now, let's talk root porn! Brace yourselves for a visual feast as we delve into the underground world of the clones. The roots, like intricate threads weaving a subterranean tapestry, tell a story of vitality and success. These clones, offspring of our majestic Jealousy, have not only taken root but have done so with a vigor that speaks volumes about the genetic prowess passed down from their botanical matriarch. The success of these clones is a testament to the health and vitality of Jealousy herself. It's like witnessing the circle of life in a green kingdom, where each rooted clone is a promise of continuity and a nod to the resilience of the plant lineage. As we navigate the fourth week of flowering, let's extend our gratitude to Zamnesia and Plagron, the unseen architects of our botanical masterpiece. Their contributions continue to shape the narrative of our green adventure. A standing ovation to the Grow Diaries community – your shared experiences and boundless enthusiasm are the pillars of our collective knowledge. To my fellow contestants and growers, may your buds swell with magnificence, and may the vibrancy of your grow rooms reflect the success of your botanical endeavors. Here's to a week of perpetual prayer, turbocharged growth, and the anticipation of a harvest that will leave us all in awe. Stay green, stay inspired, and keep cultivating those dreams! As always, thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all. This journey of mine would just not be the same without you guys. The love and support are very much appreciated, and I feel honored and blessed with you all in my life !!! With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself and always do things expecting nothing in return, with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will respond in ways you can’t even dream of .

Fought root rot/res/nute issues all week, but seemed to have turned the corner. Nice steady growth. Cleaned the res hard at the start of the week and continued to treat with H2O2, and switched to Lucas Formula for nutes along the way. I added ~30mL of 3% H2O2 daily for 4 days before the smell seemed to disappear and roots recovered. Afterwards double dosed the hydroguard again. Noticing very dark and shiny leaves with some clawing. I hadn't been measuring the EC in the res and figured I burned the plants. I replaced 1 gal of the res with pH'd tap water to reduce the EC/PPM. Did not take exact measurements. My notes get thinner from here as I had too many plants going at once to properly document this first attempt.

Greetings fellow growers 🖖 and welcome to my first grow ever. This adventure actually started several months ago when I decided to stop buying flower from dispensaries and just grow my own bud. How hard can it be!? This is actually my second seed of this strain. The first bean sadly died due to over watering (sorry girl, RIP). I was literally watering the cube to the point where water was dripping from the bottom, then heavily sprayed the humidity dome and tray with the vents completely closed. Everyday. Multiple times. I never let the dome or try dry out. So after about 8 days of not sprouting, there was a funky smell of rot. So that was that. Later I learned that rockwool retains a lot of water and can easily drown seeds. So a wet/dry cycle is best for rockwool germination. So even after hours of researching and digging through forums and tutorial videos, I was still under prepared for this journey. Did not consider how delicate the germination phase is. Oh well. Lesson learned. Reset and try again! I hope everyone is safe and stoned during this corona crisis. Just like everyone else in the world, I want this pandemic to be over with. But in the meantime, let's grow some weed! 🖖 [START OF WEEK 01] Day 01 - Monday - 08/03/20 - Total Days: 001 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: Light Schedule: 24Hrs/0 --- Soaked cube in 5.5 PH water for 10 min. Did not shake water out. --- NO NUTES! Only PH'd down to control the PH levels. --- Did not use the default hole (way too deep). --- Flipped cube upside down and made a shallow hole for the seed (less than 0.25" deep). --- Placed seed in and pinched hole close. No additional water added. --- Sprayed the tray and dome with straight water (5.5 PH). --- Vents are cracked opened a for ventilation (about 1/4 opened each). --- Distance between the light and tray was 53" --- AC was set to 80 °F --- Exhaust fan was set to 86 °F --- Room average temp was at 85 °F --- Dome humidity was at 85-99% when sprayed. --- Allowing to completely dry before respraying. - [2200]: Dome and tray were completely dry! Sprayed only tray and dome with more water. Day 02 - Tuesday - 08/04/20 - Total Days: 002 ----------------------------------- - [0845]: Sprayed dome and tray in the morning. Everything was dry. --- Hoping for the best! - [2130]: Everything was dry again, so sprayed dome and tray at night along with a light spray on the cube. Day 03 - Wednesday - 08/05/20 - Total Days: 003 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: Everything was dry again. Resprayed dome and tray. Slightly sprayed cube. - [2125]: Hooo damn!! She popped! Am little stub is visible! Resprayed dome and tray again. --- Still going 24/0 for lights. - [+0033]: Just checked up on her and I swear she grew a bit taller! Getting excited! Day 04 - Thursday - 08/06/20 - Total Days: 004 ----------------------------------- - [0845]: Wow! Went from a little stub to fully sprouted overnight! Everything was pretty dry again so resprayed dome and tray. - [2200]: Tap root is visible! Over 1" long too! Just resprayed dome and tray again. -- Going to prep for hydroton transplant tomorrow! Day 05 - Friday - 08/07/20 - Total Days: 005 ----------------------------------- - [0930]: She keeps growing! -- Added a bit of CalMag to the spray bottle (8 drops to 650ml of distilled water). Resprayed dome and tray. Water was at a 5.4 PH with 141 PPM. - [1045]: Prepped the bubble bucket with 4.5gal of water. Water is high enough to reach about 0.25" above the bottom of the net pot. --- Added 3 drops of Superthrive --- Added 3.5ml of CaliMagic --- Added 2ml Hydroguard --- Then PH'd down to 5.6 --- Solution Strengh: 120 PPM --- Water chiller is set to 20 °C - [1100]: Transplant time! --- Filled the net basket 1/3 with hydroton. When placed in the bucket, air bubbles are not visible, but are slightly below the surface (slight digging will reveal the water/bubbles below). --- Removed plastic on rockwool cube and placed in basket, then filled around and covered with hydroton. Making sure to block any light from passing through the net pot and into the nutrient solution. --- Covered with a half-bottle dome sprayed with the CalMag water from earlier. --- Hoping for the best! - [1300]: Raised Bucket 5" higher. Now light distance is 48" to top of bucket. - [1820]: Lowered tent exhaust temp to 76 °F --- Lowered AC to 75 °F --- Raised bucket even higher so light distance is 30" to top of bucket. - [2300]: Looking good! --- Sprayed dome and surrounding hydroton with more CalMag water. --- Attached timer to light! So new 18 Hrs On/6 Hrs Off light schedule. --- Lights On: [1600] (4pm) --- Lights Off: [+1000] (10am the next day) --- Decided to go with lights on during the evening/night and off during the later mornings/afternoon (the hottest part of the day) to see if temps can be controlled better. --- Please survive girl! Day 06 - Saturday - 08/08/20 - Total Days: 006 ----------------------------------- - [0800]: Everything was dry. Resprayed hydroton and dome. - [2000]: Here first night cycle seemed to go well! Get'n taller! --- Dry again. Removed the dome. --- PH went up to 6.5 so PH'd down to 5.7 --- Ran the top feed drip ring for a bout a minute to wet the hydroton and rockwool with the nutient solution. ---Too scared to leave the top feed on 24hrs (I don't want over water her and cause dampening-off). Will let dry before re-watering. - [2100]: After closer inspection, I think she's looking a bit yellow. --- Decided to add a bit of grow nutes to the bubbler solution. --- Added 2ml of Sensi Grow A --- Added 2ml of Sensi Grow B --- Solution strength after adding more nutes: 176 PPM --- PH went up to 6 --- I hope that the extra chelating properties of the 'PH Perfect' solution is enough of a buffer for proper nutrient uptake. Day 07 - Sunday - 08/09/20 - Total Days: 007 ----------------------------------- - [0800]: Water dropped a bit (mostly due to evaporation) so solution strength was at 190. --- Checked PH again. Was still at 6, so PH'd down to 5.4 --- Ran the top feed for a minute to wet the hydroton a bit. - [0915]: Since she's looking perky but still a bit yellow. So decided to up the nutrient concentration even more before lights out. --- Added 2ml more of Sensi Grow A --- Added 2ml more of Sensi Grow B --- Solution strength after adding more nutes: 199 PPM --- PH went up to 5.8 - [1700]: Checked nutrients. --- PH: 5.9 --- Solution strength: 202 PPM --- Added 4ml of Voodoo Juice --- Added 4ml of B-52 --- PH after adding more nutes: 5.9 --- Solution strength after adding more nutes: 238 PPM - [2130]: Decided to make a new foliar spray to address the continued yellowing. --- Started with 500ml of distilled water. --- Added 3 drops of CaliMagic --- Added 3 drops of Sensi Grow A --- Added 3 drops of Sensi Grow B --- Added 3 drops of B-52 --- Added 1 drop of Superthrive --- Solution strength: 164 PPM --- PH was at 5.9 and did not adjust. --- Gave her one spray. --- Also sprayed the surrounding hydroton. [END OF WEEK 01]

1/14: This morning, I did a foliar application of big bloom and fulvic acid, then about 5 hours later I watered them with about a half-gallon of rainwater each and added armor si, humic acid, endoboost myco/tricho, liquid molasses, and a bunch of cal-mag. Today, I also I wired up and mounted my new samsung sun board strips (660nm/730nm) and my Solacure FlowerPower UVB fixture. I'm running the deep red/far red bud boosters a few hours per day right now, but will run them for the entire photoperiod once I start flowering them. I'll run the UVB for 4 * 15-minute sessions a day for the full flowering cycle, and if they don't protest too much I'll increase each session by 5 minutes and evaluate again. Some strains are more forgiving than others and I've got 5 different strains in this space...so really not sure much time I'll get away with exposing them to the deadly rays without damaging them too much...😈 1/15: I received one of the rapid led/growmau far red initiator pucks today. With the placement of my UVB light, I'm realizing I'll need another far red puck to have even and intense far red coverage, so I'm ordering another with Prime delivery and waiting to start flowering until I receive it. I sprayed them down really well with ph adjusted rainwater tonight to rinse off nutrient build-up from foliar applications. 1/16: I'm really excited to try flowering under 14/10. I grew photos indoors on an off for 15 years before I semi-retired. If I added up all the additional flowering time I could have done through the years if LED technology existed, I'd have had an extra truckload of bud to smoke. I did another application of Axiom Harpin a|b Proteins this evening, right before dark. I'm expecting a big growth burst this week, leading up to the flower stretch. I really need them to trigger under 14/10 within 4 or 5 days🙏 ...if not, I'll switch to 13/11 and wait a few more days🙏😟..if still no pistils are poppin, I'll go to 12/12 and chalk it up as bad luck or varietal indifference to Pr and Pfr manipulation. 1/17: I fed each of them about 3/4 gallon of full strength veg nutes. This will be the last. I'll go with half-strength veg and half-strength bloom for a week, then go with full strength bloom nutrients until I start flushing them in 6-8 weeks. 1/18: I installed the second far-red flowering initiator today and got all my timers configured for flowering: ========================================= timer#1 - power strip with qb's and red boosters   10:00am -12:00am  timer#2 - (dual/independent setting)             sideA- 3-way cube with uva bars                   10am - 3pm                    7pm - 11pm             sideB- flowerpower uvb                    1pm - 1:15pm                    4pm - 4:15pm                    7pm - 7:15pm                    11pm - 11:15pm timer#3 - far red pucks   11:00pm - 12:15am timer#4 - sub-canopy tube   10am  - 1pm    3pm  -  6pm    8pm  - 11pm ======================================== I also did some testing on the timers and sealed myself into the closet to check for any light leaks. All good.👌 1/19: Looks like the FIM job didn't take on one of them..but she's got perfect symmetry. WIll probably have to just top her again next week...gonna be a tall one I think. Tonight is their first long night. It's ON!👍 1/20: I watered them today with about a half gallon each. I'm seeing calcium and magnesium deficiences here and there, so added some boomerang and heavy cal-mag-Fe along with liquid molasses, humic acid, and endoboost myco. I also foliar fed with big bloom and fulvic acid. That's it for week 4-

Hello Diary, The Milky Way F1 is ready to harvest soon, although the Titan F1 ripened first and is already ready, the Milky Way F1 and Apollo F1 will have to wait another week in my estimation. The Milky Way F1, as seen in the photos, is truly a sight for the eyes. The flowers started to get more and more brown pistils, but looking under the microscope, the trichomes are not all milky yet. So I'll leave her for another day. Otherwise, the flowers are full of trichomes, from which a strong fragrance spreads. Here and there a yellowish leaf appears, which I immediately remove. Watering is a little more frequent due to the high temperatures, but I stopped adding any nutrients. Here's a quick recap of the week. 26/06/2023 - Day 58. Watering. Only two days later, the plants drank all the water, so I watered them with two liters for each individual plant. 29/06/2023 - Day 61. Watering. I repeated the procedure as I did three days earlier. 01/07/2023. - Day 63. Photographing plants. That's all for this week, see you soon.
