1st week 2nd day - Gelato popped through, removed water bottle. Swapped intake and exhaust fans about to get new fresh air from outside. Used diffuser to raise humidity and ice cubes to lower temp. Intake running on full, exhaust at 70%. Cookies popped through. Removed water bottle. Misted tent and lightly top watered. Intake at 70, exhaust at 50 for overnight. Diffuser to hold humidity. Day 5 - First watering - 1l ph water each. Misting tent throughout day. Day 6 - Added 180mm cyclone fan for air movement. Removed runoff. Both seedlings doing well. Slightly further development on cookies.

The three autos I continued to flush this week and turned off the lights on friday morning for the 48 hour of darkness before the harvesting. I have cut off all dead leaves and cut the stem of the plant and hanged upside down in the tent at 50% humidity. I have no lift scales to measure the weights of the plant but will update as it cures. Dr jack auto which is still outside the tent is doing well and now is under the more powerful light.

At the beginning of this week, I have been fighting the gnats, which are less and less now. Just some watering and gradually lowering the light and going to full power. The Orange Hill Special has been filling out great and I must say, she is a pretty plant. With some manual bending and super cropping, I'm bending the longer stalks sideways and we are off. What I actually do is more of an intuitive hybrid between mainlining (where I bend the whole plant 90 degrees at the third week), LST (where I bend branches outward slightly, without tying), HST / Super crop (where I bend the stems 90 degrees with the clips or manually), after which I keep bending outward to SOG and, put the net over to end in SCROG. This same method gave me the canopy in my prize-winning Gelato 33 grow. Check it out if you haven't seen it, it was my first experimental accident that led to beta test of Super Soil mixture 0.7, now we are at Alpha version 1.00 and testing great so far if I say so myself. I haven't seen such lush greens in my own grows, only outdoor. They seem uber-healthy and resilient, with very sturdy stems and leaves. Way more resilient than previous strains I tested in the beta soil. The light is performing, the natural color of it makes everything pop. Mars Hydro has a winner with the SP-3000. Check out their site: www.mars-hydro.com Thank you @MarsHydroLED for letting me test it, hook them up for a great deal or info on their products! Halfway through this week, I took the clips out, AND...... we switched them to go into flowering. After a day the stretch is already visible. I had to bend them again after a couple of days. Now we have almost a tent filling foundation for a maximum result canopy of buds. I was wanting to amend the soil with flowering additions (see recipe in yellow image), but I'm holding it off for two reasons. A/ The leaves are still so green and lush, I think there is an abundance of nutes. B/ @Haoss mentions his suspicions on his OHS grow (@#CannapediaProGrowersCup Orange Hill that very sadly went hermie on him) that nutrition in this phase could have had an influence, after asking what happened to him. I would have loved to see that grow to full harvest. But it makes me a bit cautious. if Haoss (whom I consider to be one of the star growers here) couldn't prevent this, what chance have I? I'm waiting until the girls start asking for nutrients. They'll show me what they need in their own time. For now this soil is the shizzle (also quite literally) and Im happy with how everything is going. I remember much more hassle and steering in the last grow. This grow, even the Gorilla runt seems happy. I now water them 3 liters of water / Perma tea mixture every 4 days, every 3rd watering I don't do the tea. This makes for fewer gnats and this soil seems to hold water nicely, also due to the hydro corn. What I like is there is always some unforeseen circumstance, a tilt of the tables, some battle to be fought which delivers in big harvests or, in worst case, no harvest at all. It makes it more exciting, when your heart is at stake, we pour a lot of love and attention in the ladies. So with hopes, but not too high, we go into flowering. Thank you all for joining me again in this Orange adventure! I hope you all had great weeks, germed seeds, extreme growth and buds bursting with trichomes!! See you next week! Hug Bud PS Sunshine made her first appearance, as she promised on the Gelato 33 grow. She is still a bit camera shy, so her digital alter makes an appearance first, if you all want to see more of her and my other helpers, let me know in the comments. Sunshine will make a real appearance if yall are real nice to her.

Day 51: So today is my usual watering day but decided that I can do it in the evening instead of the morning. How wrong I was, blue dream at the back was deeply unhappy with that idea. I came to water and shed dropped like crazy. The other BD was ready eventhough she wasnt due until tomorrow, I feel as though I may have gotten a little complacent with the 3 day water. I'll be checking after 2 days now as I dont even bother to lift the pots to check. All back to normal after watering. (Watered plain PH 6.3 water) Photos arent quite as good tonight as I was rushing as my phone was going to die. Will get some better ones today Lastly, a big thanks to marshydro for sending me the tsw-2000! Girls are looking awesome under it 😏👌 Super easy to install, I've left at the same hight and set the brightness to about 50%. Using my cheap light measure it's a little more than what they were getting before. I'm getting a much better coverage with the tsw-2000 than what I had with the 2x viparspectra P1000s. I'm really happy with the light already, I'm sure the girls are going to love it just as much as I 😝. Day 52: all is good! Girls aren't dropping an hour before lights out so I have increased the light to 65%. Really good sign, maybe they like the mars light spectrum a little more than the VS. Checked on weight of the pot today, still feels real heavy.. I'll be shocked if I need to water tomorrow, maybe it was just a one off as it has been a little warm. We shall see tomorrow! Day 55: the older blue dream is showing a pretty heavy P deficiency. This is likely due to my laziness.. I've been feeding her the same as the others even though she looked like she could take some more nutes. Fed them all today 4L ph 6.4 530ppm 1ml/L big bud & bloom B 0.5ml/L b52 0.25ml/L cal mag Bads are starting to put on weight and pistils are browning a little roughly 30-40% are browning. Getting closer to harvest 😁 Day 58: watered 4L plain Ph 6.4 (All) Small defoliation of all 3 plants, increasing light penetration and airflow to the bud sites. Pistils are mostly brown, I'm going to start the flush and keep an eye on the trichomes! Time to get out the microscope for the next update 😁 Thanks for stopping by! 🙂👍

the flush started, 2-3 weeks of flush .... a plant is almost mature, but having had two phenotypes that are somewhat different at the genetic level, one or the other will mature slightly more (in view of sativa prevalence) it will be harvested when fully ripe. very sweet and fruity smells, really good and strong ...

30/01/2026 This transformation marks the moment she moves past the Purgatory cycle of purification. After shedding the weight of that transition, she’s finally breathing, stretching, and claiming her space. ​...... ​The Awakening: Post-Purification ​The Purgatory cycle is behind her now. Those scarred leaves were just the shedding of the old self—the necessary price for this purification. Now, the ritual of the manifold is taking hold. I’ve opened her up, breaking her singular focus to force a new, balanced symmetry across the hub. ​The Flow of Energy ​By pinning her down, I’ve mastered the apical dominance. I’m redirecting the internal flow, sending the life-force equally into every node rather than letting one stalk hog the light. We are building a foundation of perfect geometry. ​Current State: ​The Structure: The LST is set. I’ve widened the canopy to maximize the light-soak, ensuring no part of her is left in the shadows. ​The Environment: The reflective scroll-work is guarding the roots, keeping the light on the leaves and out of the depths where the nutrients flow. ​Growth: She’s vibrating with a new frequency. The energy levels are surging, and you can see the secondary shoots beginning their ascent. This is where the expansion truly begins. ​The cleanse continues, but the frame is set. She’s getting bigger, stronger, and more aligned with the ritual. ​..... I've just stretch her wings out to open her centre for the new shoots.. .... -Midday- Attached her training Wires; therse create huge knuckles! They undo easy as well; no faffing about! ..... Few-hours later... She's flipped her leaves and is praying 🙏 🤲 🕍 🕌 ⛪️ Diary Entry: Friday, Jan 30th – The Midday Pivot ​The Steady State ​Transitioned to a maintenance-level reservoir dose of 10ml 12% H_2O_2 in the 5L master-mix for the Bubblegum (Female Seeds) and Back To The Future #2. ​Adjusted the nutritional frequency after running out of "Grow" by pivoting to a half-dose of Bloom (2ml/L); this provides the Phosphorus and Potassium needed to harden the vascular knuckles without a Nitrogen spike. ​Applied botanical hydrosol to the mix to maintain the "stillness" and clear biofilm management. ​Hardware & Logistics ​Confirmed with Ergtech that the Gativa power leads have shipped via FedEx (Tracking: 888340178046). ​Delivery is locked for Monday, Feb 2nd, aligning perfectly with the end of the 72-hour structural hardening phase. ​Biological Alignment ​Successfully reached the Round 3 protocol; the "biofilm shells" in the right ear are breaking down under the bubbling/crackling phase. ​The vagus nerve release is active: right nostril is open, sense of smell is sharp, and the internal "whooshing" sound of vascular flow is serving as the metronome for the reset. ​Lineage acknowledgment: The "40% Italian engine" is driving the symmetry and discipline of the manifolding. ​The Result (Few Hours Later...) ​The Bubblegum has already responded to the wiring with an aggressive phototropic turn; she is stretching and "praying" back toward the light, signaling peak turgor pressure. ​The Back To The Future #2 remains stable under the dome, preparing to transition out of the stillness and into the manifold frame. .... 31/01/2026 Log Entry: Atmospheric Optimization & Metabolic Continuity ​Environmental Parameters ​Thermal Logic: Maintaining a constant 27°C (80.6°F) diurnal/nocturnal cycle. By eliminating the standard 3°C nighttime drop, I am bypassing the "metabolic glitch" and ensuring uninterrupted enzymatic velocity and nutrient uptake. ​The 8-Inch Upgrade: Transitioning from 6-inch to 8-inch industrial ventilation. This increases atmospheric throughput while reducing static pressure and turbulence. The goal is a total "atmospheric flush" to prevent stagnation and potential biofilm/pathogen footholds. ​The "Back to the Future" Survivor ​Current State: The plant is in a high-turgor "Prayer" position, indicating optimal root pressure and water potential. ​The Transition: Executing Dome Removal during a 15-minute "dark window" to minimize transpirational shock. Removing the dome now introduces the plant to the new 8-inch airflow, forcing a "hardening off" response while she is at her metabolic peak. .... ​01/02/2026 Lite defoll of the inner fan leaves to open up her new shoots 🔫 bubblegum femaleseeds. 02/02/2026 Defolled one fan leaves and using wires to anchor down #back to the Future

I absolutely love to watch them grow! Especially that moment they hit their first growth spurt. I started with RO water that is remineralized for drinking purposes. The ppm is only 18! My tap is 156! So considering they don’t need much water, I’ve been stealing some of our drinking water. The RO water starts at pH of 7. After I add the nutrients, ppm of 249 @ pH of 5.8 while soil is still sweet @ pH of 7 I think my days are off as a new week begins on the last day of the previous week. I am going to leave that for consistency. 04/21 - Noticing some possible nutrient issues with the Fruity Pebbles for several days now. Going to see what she needs. Up front I’m thinking maybe just a super small amount of Amino Acids with a little Epsom Salt. Maybe she is struggling to access the nitrates from the neem cake. IF it’s a issues with nitrogen. We will see. Maybe she would benefit from some extra calcium?… Any ideas are greatly appreciated. Day 22 and I am noticing how these girls have been burning up a lot of potassium lately, dealing with the wind and sun 💨 ☀️, getting pushed around all day. I plant to top dress with some Kelp Meal pretty soon. Day 24 -> 4/22/22- a quote from the weather on today’s red flag warning and dust storm warning. “ HAZARD...Less than a quarter mile visibility with damaging wind in excess of 60 mph. SOURCE...Satellite imagery. IMPACT...Dangerous life-threatening travel.” I’m keeping the girls inside today. Day 26, I was planning to check the runoff on some of these girls, especially the fruity pebbles, however I messed that up as I also top dressed WAY too much of the seaweed bliss. So I flushed with plain RO water at pH of 7 until there was only slight coloration in the runoff. I didn’t check the runoff as a lot has changed with all that flushing. So next watering/feeding I will make sure I check the runoff on multiple plants. So the seaweed bliss with its 17 on potassium, seems to be the most likely culprit for why there is a bronze-ish color on the inside of the new growth. Hopefully a foliar feed of Epsom salts can correct the problem. Inside tent, lights on LOW. Noticing similar pattern in all of them to a degree, most noticeable in the fruity pebbles.

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

This is the beginning of week 3 in bud. I’ve decided to not put the ATF plant in my bud room this round. I’m hoping she will just keep growing slow and my clones will eventually catch up with her so they can all go in together next round. The buds have definitely starting to swell up this past week. They all seem to have bounced back from their week 2 lollipopping. I’m very excited for this Melato in the back. She’s obviously outgrown the other 2 strains I have in the room currently. She’s also started throwing off the most smells as well. With some really strong indica OG gas smells. But other than that, everything normal this week. Just plain PHed water every other day. Thanks for checking out the garden. 🤙

October 9, 2021: Everything is moving right along. Flowering in full effect! Still showing signs of overwatering, but getting better. I haven't watered them at all this week. They are almost dried out enough to start watering again. I'm learning these 'self watering' pots I purchased basically suck and should be treated the same as any other 3 gallon pot. Lesson learned. I still like the concept of Sub Irrigation Planter (SIP) pots. I'll be building some SIP pots of my own with 5 gallon buckets in the future. Blackberry is 14" tall and has nice purple colors coming in. I did some additional defoliation on her this week and really like the way she is looking now (minus the overwatering) Critical+ is 22" tall and has good bud development. Her leaves are more yellowed, but that hasn't seemed to affect her bud development. I'm guessing we have 4-5 weeks to go until harvest time. I have planted 4 new photo period seeds (new journal up - check it out). I'll be flipping this tent to 12-12 as soon as these two girls have harvested. Until next week... Happy Growing!!! ✊

Gonna start flushing next watering and get my fade going, can tell she’s been missing nitrogen for a while as she’s already yellowing in spots. She’s looking pretty good.
