1st of September. This week I thinned out the whole plant again and took out some small side branches that didn’t get enough sun. I tried maximise the airflow inside the plant. I m super impressed how thick the stem already is. The flowers r growing too, but still a bit slow. I m excited for the next weeks. Also I fertilised with an organic bloom fertilizer. This fertilizer is beside from the seeds the only thing I bought from a growshop. I think regarding the growing there is so so much equipment that is not needed when you are growing on a hobby level.

Hard to believe the pineapple muffins is half way done at this point. The buds look and smell amazing, brush one branch and you instantly smell the pineapple. The gorilla zkittlez is clearly done adding height and is focused on bud production now. She also isn’t nearly as stanky as the muffins but still looks good and healthy. Overall very satisfied so far.

Day 8 Flower (Day 50) The first day of the second week of flower and the strech is real. The right girl is getting pretty damn big and keeps on drinking a lot. I gave her another 3 liters of pH 6.4 water today. On the other hand, the left girl drinks hardly anything, so I didn't need to water her. I also did some lollipopping today and got rid of a whole bunch of undergrowth. I saved some clones off the big girl but no clue what to do with them. We'll see what happens. Day 9 Flower (Day 51) Chill day today. All I did was to give each girl 3 liters of pH 6.5 water and snap a few pics. Day 10 Flower (Day 52) Today I finally got around to re-organize the small tent to move the light as high up as possible to give the canopy some additional space. I moved the exhaust fan to outside the tent, so it was out of the way for the light, and then put the circulation fan below the canopy, blowing upward. Finally, I adjusted the light so it was reading about 900 PPFD in the center of the canopy. The left girl didn't need any water today, but the right girl got 3 liters of pH 6.2 water. Day 11 Flower (Day 53) They're back! The fungus gnats are back in the tent, although I'm not surprised, and let me tell you why. When the light for my tomatoes and peppers broke down, I had to move them so that they get some daylight. It is still cold here (the coldest May around these parts ever, I think), so they have to stay inside even though they usually would have moved outside long ago. The best place to keep them in my apartment is by the window in the same room as my grow tents. The last time I had gnats, I only had enough nematodes to treat my girls, but I didn't do the rest of the apartment even though I should have. So currently, my peppers and tomatoes all have a ton of gnats. Put plants with gnats in the same room as your grow, and it is only a matter of time before the gnats find their way into the tents. So yeah, it wasn't a surprise at all when I noticed the gnats in my tents some days ago. I put up some yellow sticky traps to deal with the adults and ordered more nematodes, enough to treat my girls, plus all other plants in my entire apartment. Twice. The nematodes arrived today, and I mixed up 10 million of them into 6 liters of water and gave each girl half at pH 6.5. That was it for today. Day 12 Flower (Day 54) Exhausting day today. I opened the tents, took pics, closed the tents. Phew! I think I need to lay down for a bit. Day 13 Flower (Day 55) Late last night I decided to supercrop the right girl to slow her down and get the canopy to even out. We're almost at the end of the second week of flower so this is the last training I will do besides some defoliation later on. I think I cropped around 10 branches or so. Today, most of the branches were already standing up again and she was VERY thirsty so I gave her 4.5 liters of pH 6.4 water. The left girl on the other hand didn't need any water. Day 14 Flower (Day 56) The last day of the second week of flower and the right girl is in flower. Early yet so still small and no smell, but they are there. The left girl is in flower as well but isn't as far along, but that isn't unexpected considering the different lights. The left girl is 68 cm tall (18 cm increase in a week), and the right girl is 100 cm tall (23 cm increase in a week) but would have been even taller without super-cropping. I gave each girl three liters of pH 6.3 water and removed the tape from the right girl's broken branch. She looks fully healed, so I removed the supports as well, and she was looking great. However, thinking about it for a second, I put back one of the supports, just in case.

6/9 12am MONDAY. They look great, went to 4mL per L of Con Grow looking great 6/10 9am. 1130pm loo GC 🚨🚨 TOP REDSIGN. NODE 5 & 6 HAVE 2 EXTRA BUD SITES.... I USUALLY TOP AT 3 OR 4 AND THEN TRIM OFF NODE 1 DEPENDING ON MAIN STALK HEIGHT, EASIER TO WATER AND MAINTIAN. BUT I CUT OFF NODE 1 THRU 4 AND LEFT MAIN COLA. INVERTED TOP??? SHE IS GIVING ME IDAS.... I WILL TOP GOAT AND GROW AT NODE 5 & 6 GOAT 2 WILL BE TOPPED AT NODE 3 & 4.....🚨🚨⚡️⚡️ 6/11 330am new air assist exit fan design prot 6/12 9am tried something new I mixed bud factor X2 mL per liter and big bud 2 mL per liter did a supplement only watering today. It was full strength. I’ll see what kind of damage I’ve done.💦💦 6/13 NO DAMAGE...wow. MY PH PEN WAS OFF BY UP TO 2 POINTS FOR 3 YEARS.... SHIT...ALL THE TIME I SPENT BLAMING THE NUTRIENTS.... GOTDAMNIT. 1am They look great, GC is crammed in for just a few hours until the other tent wakes up, then transfer OR I will have to light an ENTIRE tent for 2 plants, no way. I put them in the 12/12 tent. Should top today, feeling sick to my stomach.....nausea makes mobility impossible. 6/15 1255am BEST VEG EVER...I RIPPED GOAT'lato in 2/3's. RIPPED a BUBBLES BLUEBERRY in 1/2 and got them both fixed.... ALL are doing great. I think my BAD PH PEN... FOR 2 YEARS...so stpid. After calibrating pens and using TWO now. pH to 5.6 - 6.2 avg between the 2 and ONLY AN CON GROW... everything else is overkill and burns in my small container and not much runoff when I water. I water from bottom mostly. DO NOT us supplements and nutrients at the same time or the same watering.!!!! 1240pm topping today for sure this time. 111pm GC has a burned top...I did not top big mistake. but wanted to see her grow without topping.... BPP looks tiny but aWESOME. 🚨🚨3pm I made 4 Gorilla Gas F1 CLONES by Seedsman at nodes 3 & 4!!!!! The I topped her as well. I cant upload pics now but she's great.

2/9 for 40 9 AM. All of the auto flowers are doing great banana purple punch are F3 is phenomenal. The smell is unlike anything I’ve had before. It’s very very nice just perfect so far. 2/10, 5:45 AM. The other flowers are doing great the ones from fast buds they RF three banana smells like strong grape I mean really nice. I’ve never had this before. This is my first time with General hydroponics maxi powder and using the purple I’m talking so it won’t say if I say the right product but the general hydroponics purple product and Calma those three alone are giving me spectacular results. Everything smells so clean and fresh. It’s gonna be nice.👍👍👍🍇🍇🍇 2/12 2:35AM Im finally better looking than James Vander-whatthehellever....HA! I am outliving people now! 2/13 3:30AM Finished vegetable garden, needed high iron foods like spinach. Using Amino Acids in soil as primer 2/13 10:30AM BPP RF3 🍇🍇🍇🍇🍇🍇🍇🍇🍇🍇🍇🍇🍇🍇🍇❤️💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍👍. Since I am at week 10 , I added about a liter of plain water after watering yesterday and I’m starting to get the fade. so I’m gonna throttle back on nitrogen. I didn’t do a final rinse but that 1 L into the pot today into the 2 gallon, I could see the yellowing start to happen, nitrogen start to fade out a little so that’s great. I’ll let her dry and then the nutrients will be very light from here on out. I’ll probably add a little something but I don’t wanna get the EC too high and ruin it. She’s turning out great. 12/14 12:28AM TC auto by fast buds, Gelatto Auto Tyson 2. 0 by RQS, Pink Kush by Seedsman. **Adding 1/8 tsp each of L-proline and L-phenylalanine + 1/16 tsp Great White Myco per gallon of water at 8–10 weeks on autoflowers is a mild, low-risk supplement that’s generally beneficial or neutral in late flowering.** Autoflowers at this stage are usually in mid-to-late bloom (ripening/swelling phase), so the focus is on bud density, resin production, terpene/flavonoid development, and stress protection rather than vegetative growth. ### Breakdown of Each Component **Proline (≈100–200 mg/L at this dose)** - Acts as an osmoprotectant and antioxidant. - Helps plants handle heat, light stress, or drought by maintaining cell turgor and reducing oxidative damage. - In late flower, this can protect developing buds and keep the plant photosynthesizing efficiently even if conditions aren’t perfect. **Phenylalanine (≈100–200 mg/L)** - Precursor for the phenylpropanoid pathway (flavonoids, lignins, some aroma compounds). - In cannabis, this pathway contributes to cannflavins and certain terpene-related metabolites. - Many growers and amino-acid products (e.g., Sugar Royal) note improved taste, aroma, and “frostiness” when phenylalanine-rich blends are used in bloom. **Great White Myco (light dose)** - Endo/ecto mycorrhizae + beneficial bacteria/Trichoderma. - Improves root surface area, nutrient/water uptake, and drought tolerance. - Amino acids can serve as a mild carbon source for the microbes, potentially helping colonization or activity if the roots aren’t already fully mycorrhizal. ### Combined Effects on 8–10 Week Autoflowers **Positive / Likely Effects** - Better stress resilience (especially useful under intense lights, heat, or dry conditions). - Slightly improved nutrient uptake and root health → can support final bud swell and resin production. - Potential modest boost to secondary metabolites (flavonoids/terpenes) and overall bud quality/flavor. - Many growers use similar amino-acid doses (100–250 mg/L) in bloom with good results for density and aroma. **Neutral to Mildly Negative Possibilities** - Extra nitrogen from the amino acids (very small amount) could keep leaves a bit greener longer or slightly delay ripening if you’re already at high N levels. At this low dose and for one or occasional waterings, it’s rarely an issue. - One study on medical cannabis clones found a broad amino-acid supplement reduced certain cannabinoid levels (by ~44% in that specific trial), but many hobby growers report the opposite or no change when using targeted/low doses. - No dramatic “magic” effect expected — this is more of a fine-tuning supplement than a game-changer. ### Practical Tips for This Mix - Use it as a root drench (not foliar unless you want to) every 7–10 days max in late flower. - pH the water to 6.0–6.5 (soil) or 5.8–6.2 (coco/hydro). - If your base nutrients are already strong, reduce them slightly that watering to avoid salt buildup. - Flush with plain pH’d water in the final 7–10 days if you haven’t already. - Watch for signs of excess N (very dark green fan leaves, slow trichome maturation) — if you see that, skip the next application. **Bottom line**: This is a smart, targeted late-flower tweak that most autoflower growers would consider beneficial or at worst harmless. You’ll likely see slightly healthier plants, better resilience, and possibly a small bump in aroma/resin quality. It’s not going to double your yield or turn average buds into elite ones, but it’s a low-cost way to give the plants a little extra support right when they need it most. ""🚨 2/15 2:10AM 🚨 What you’re describing—using medical marijuana in a **low-and-slow, steady** way (likely low-dose THC or balanced THC/CBD) that avoids heavy impairment to memory or executive function, yet noticeably **reduces clumsiness, tripping/falling, and improves dexterity/coordination** (you can do several things without as much fumbling or loss of balance)—is something many medical users report anecdotally, and there’s emerging science that helps explain it. The key seems to be **dose, method, and your underlying conditions** (chronic pain, anxiety, possible neurological or musculoskeletal factors from your diverticulitis history, neck issues, weight loss, and long-term stress/isolation). Here’s what’s likely going on: ### 1. Cannabis Can Reduce Pain and Muscle Tension That Contribute to Clumsiness Chronic pain (especially neuropathic or inflammatory types from gut issues or neck cyst) often causes **guarding** (subconscious tensing of muscles to protect painful areas), **fatigue**, **poor posture**, or **altered movement patterns** that make you more prone to tripping, bumping into things, or losing balance. Low-dose cannabis (especially THC-dominant but not overwhelming) is well-documented for providing **analgesia** (pain relief) and **muscle relaxation** without full intoxication. - Studies show cannabinoids (THC and CBD) can modestly reduce **chronic/neuropathic pain** and **spasticity/muscle tension** in conditions like multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s, or general chronic pain syndromes—leading to better mobility and fewer “trips” because you’re not as stiff/guarded. - In low doses, this relaxation improves **fine motor control** and **dexterity** by easing tension without sedating or clouding focus. When you’re **off** cannabis, the pain/tension returns → more guarding, fatigue, or subtle motor disruption → higher chance of clumsiness/falls. ### 2. Effects on Balance, Coordination, and Motor Control - Acute high doses of THC often **impair** coordination, reaction time, and balance (e.g., studies on driving or motor tasks show slowed movements, increased errors). - But **low doses** (or balanced THC/CBD) can have the opposite effect in some people, particularly those with baseline pain, anxiety, or hypertonia (tight muscles). It can act as a **neuromodulator** via the endocannabinoid system, which regulates motor control, proprioception (body position sense), and cerebellar function (balance/coordination). - In certain neurological or pain contexts (e.g., spasticity, tremor, or chronic discomfort), low-dose cannabis improves **subjective motor function** and reduces fall risk by calming overactive reflexes or reducing pain-related hesitation in movement. Your “low and slow” approach likely stays in this therapeutic window—enough to ease pain/tension without tipping into impairment that worsens coordination. ### 3. Anxiety Reduction and Its Role in Motor Performance Anxiety (especially chronic or anticipatory from your situation) is a huge hidden driver of clumsiness: - It ramps up **sympathetic nervous system** activity → shaky hands, tense muscles, hypervigilance, and divided attention (you’re “in your head” more, so less present with your body). - This makes tripping/falling more likely because you’re distracted or tense. Low-dose cannabis (particularly CBD-heavy or balanced) has strong **anxiolytic** (anti-anxiety) effects at low levels, often improving focus and presence without sedation. Many users report feeling “smoother” or “more in flow”—better dexterity because anxiety isn’t making movements jerky or hesitant. High doses can do the opposite (increase paranoia/anxiety or impair executive function), so your careful dosing avoids that. ### Why It Feels Like “No Problems” When On It This is a classic therapeutic paradox: the cannabis isn’t “fixing” a motor deficit per se—it’s **removing barriers** (pain, tension, anxiety, inflammation) that were making normal movements harder. When those are dialed down, your baseline coordination shines through more clearly, making you feel steadier and more capable. Off it, those barriers return → more proneness to “spaz” moments, trips, or self-injury. ### Bottom Line This isn’t unusual for medical users with chronic pain, anxiety, or subtle motor issues—low-dose cannabis often **enhances functional coordination** by reducing the things that interfere with it, rather than directly boosting motor skills like caffeine might. It’s why some people with conditions involving spasticity, neuropathic pain, or anxiety-related clumsiness find it helpful for daily tasks. If this pattern holds, it’s a sign your current approach (low/steady dosing) is hitting a sweet spot for symptom management. Track it if you can (e.g., note falls/trips on vs. off days) to refine further. If the clumsiness worsens off cannabis to a dangerous level, that’s worth discussing with a medical cannabis-savvy provider (even via telehealth) for potential adjustments or adjuncts (e.g., PT for balance, or CBD-dominant options). Glad you’re noticing these positives—sounds like a meaningful quality-of-life improvement. How long have you observed this difference? Any specific strains or ratios (THC/CBD) that seem to work best for the coordination boost? 🚨🚨 2/15, 4:54 AM banana purple punch auto RF3 by fast buds is doing good. Also OG triploid by humble seed company is throwing a lot of resin. She’s doing just as good all have very thick dense buds. It smells great and now that I have dark opal basil growing in there the scent in the tent is amazing with everything going at once. It’s just perfect. I lowered the watts to 73. She doesn’t need any more power than that. It’ll just create heat and stress. I’ll probably drop the watt down to 70 even I think that will provide enough light the last three weeks they don’t need as much intense light and it just burns away the Turpines. 215 5:28 AM 🌿🌿🌿🌿💜💜💜Yes, your Dark Opal basil (Ocimum basilicum ‘Dark Opal’) will produce seeds if allowed to fully flower and set seed pods. This is a classic annual basil behavior—once it starts flowering (bolting), the plant shifts energy from leaf production to reproduction. The purple/lavender flower spikes you see (with those pretty pinkish-purple blooms) will eventually develop small nutlets (tiny seed pods) at the base of each flower whorl if not pinched off. These nutlets mature into viable seeds you can collect and save for next season. Quick Facts on Seed Production in Dark Opal • Flowering to seed: After blooms open, they fade and dry out over 2–4 weeks (depending on warmth/humidity). The calyx (the green “cup” behind each flower) swells into small brown/black nutlets containing 1–4 seeds each. • Viability: Seeds from Dark Opal are generally fertile and true-to-type (they’ll produce similar purple-leaved plants), though basil can cross-pollinate with nearby basils if bees/insects carry pollen. Your setup (inside a tent with cannabis) likely minimizes cross-pollination. • Quantity: One healthy flowering plant can give dozens to hundreds of seeds if you let several spikes mature fully. • When to collect: Wait until the flower spikes turn brown and dry (crisp to the touch). Cut them off, shake/rub seeds out over paper, winnow chaff, and store in a cool, dry envelope or jar. Tips for Your Setup • Smell and looks: The flowering basil smells amazing (intense clove/licorice notes)—that’s the essential oils peaking right now. It’s normal and pleasant, especially next to your cannabis. • What to do next: ◦ If you want more leaves: Pinch off flower buds ASAP to encourage bushier growth and delay bolting. (Many growers do this repeatedly.) ◦ If you want seeds: Let 2–4 spikes mature fully (don’t harvest those stems). Cover with a paper bag if seeds start dropping to catch them. The rest of the plant can still be used for pesto/culinary purposes, though leaves may get slightly bitter post-bolting. ◦ Companion bonus: Basil and cannabis play nice together—basil repels some pests (like thrips/flies) and its strong aroma can help mask cannabis smells if that’s a concern. Your purple basil looks healthy and vigorous alongside the BPP RF3 (Banana Purple Punch RF3?). • Environment check: Your tent’s at ~87°F (high but doable for late flower/seed set in basil), 50% RH (good for preventing mold on seeds), and light cycle seems strong (plants are flowering hard). Basil loves warmth/humidity for seed maturation. Overall, flowering is a natural progression—your Dark Opal is happy and productive. If you let it go to seed, you’ll have free plants next round. Super rewarding companion grow! How far along are the flower spikes—mostly open, or starting to fade? Any plans to save seeds or just enjoy the show/scent? Keep sharing pics; your tent looks lush! 🌿🌸

Week 12 | Animal Mints — Legends of the Frozen North Week 12 and the room is doing exactly what we hoped it would do. This is the part of the run where patience matters more than intervention. The structure is built. The weight is there. The resin is there. The metabolism is still active. Now the job is simple: maintain stability, reduce noise, and let the plants finish with calm. And that is exactly where this room is right now. A quick recap: 12/12 from seed For anyone new joining the diary, this run was flowered under 12/12 from seed — meaning these plants were grown under a flowering light schedule from day one, instead of being vegged under 18/6 and flipped later. That changes the entire architecture of the plant. Instead of building wide, heavily branched bushes during a long vegetative phase, the plants stay more columnar, more direct, and more apically focused. Less wasted lateral growth. Less unnecessary vegetation. More efficient top-to-bottom flower development. That’s why this run looks like this. Lean frames. Stacked tops. Excellent vertical flower distribution. And dense, productive bud sites from upper canopy all the way into the lowers. This style is not about brute force. It is about efficiency, timing, and letting the plant express itself with less interruption. Week 12: the room is finishing beautifully This week the room feels exactly like a late flower room should feel. Not loud. Not explosive. Just mature. The flowers are dense and fully formed now, with visible weight from top to bottom and clear structural consistency across the canopy. The upper tops have finished stacking and are now settling into their final shape, while the lower and mid sites continue proving exactly why the undercanopy support mattered so much in this run. That lower development is one of the biggest wins here. The undercanopy lighting did exactly what it was supposed to do: it kept the lower flower sites active, productive, and worth carrying to the finish. Instead of soft lowers and wasted interior material, the plant continued producing meaningful flower mass deeper into the canopy. Combined with the top lighting, this created a much more even distribution of usable flower across the full plant. And that shows clearly now. The room is not just top-heavy. It is productive throughout. Resin, color, and late-flower expression This week the visual changes are subtle, but important. The pistils are darkening and receding. The calyxes are swelling. The resin heads are fully formed and standing dense across bracts, sugar leaves, and surrounding surfaces. This is the part of flower where the plant stops trying to build and starts trying to finish. You can see it in the way the flowers are tightening. You can see it in the way the bracts are swelling. You can see it in the color shift — greener tissue fading into softer lime tones, deeper pistil oxidation, and the first real signs of end-of-cycle maturity beginning to settle in. Nothing dramatic. Just the plant slowly shifting its priorities. And that is exactly what we want. Feeding strategy: now just enzymes At this stage, we have stopped feeding base nutrients and are now running only Pure Zym with water. That is intentional. At week 12, the plant does not need more pushing. It does not need more nitrogen. It does not need more unnecessary input. It needs space to finish. By this point, the soil still holds more than enough residual nutrition to carry the plant through the last stretch. The goal now is not to keep forcing uptake — it is to let the plant naturally use what is already available, finish metabolically, and begin consuming what remains in the medium and in its own tissues. That is why we simplify here. No force. No excess. No chasing numbers. Just enough enzymatic support to help keep the rhizosphere active, assist in breaking down residual organic matter, and keep the medium biologically functional while the plant finishes the job. That is the role of the enzymes now. Not feeding the plant harder. Helping the system stay clean and available while the plant completes itself. Water, EC, and why less is more now Water remains simple. We are running rainwater mixed with recovered humidifier water, plus enzymes only. No pH correction. No heavy EC. No over-management. Input EC is staying extremely soft, around 0.1–0.2, just enough to carry the enzymes without unnecessarily loading the medium this late in flower. pH continues to land naturally around 6.8, and we are leaving it there. At this point, we are not interested in forcing perfect numbers on paper. We are interested in maintaining a stable root environment the plant is already happy in. And the plant is clearly happy in it. This is one of those moments where overcorrection usually creates more problems than it solves. The room is stable. The plants are functioning. So we let stable stay stable. Still drinking = still working One of the clearest signs that the room is still metabolically active is water consumption. Even this late, the plants are still drinking 1.7–1.8L per day, down slightly from the peak (~2L/day), but still very strong for this stage. That matters. Because even though the room looks like it is approaching the end, the plant is still moving water, still transpiring, still exchanging, still functioning. That means metabolism is still active. And active metabolism means the plant is still finishing properly. They are not stalled. They are not fading out prematurely. They are simply slowing down the way mature plants should. That is a very different thing. Climate: stable beats perfect Environment remains essentially unchanged because it does not need to change. Day temps around 26°C Night temps around 18°C RH around 60% Root zone around 21°C CO₂ around 1000 ppm Stable, predictable, and easy for the plants to work in. Could we push harder? Probably. Could we chase tighter numbers? Also yes. But at this stage, the return is rarely worth the extra energy, extra complexity, or extra stress introduced into an already stable room. Leaf VPD remains within a comfortable working range, the plants are responding well, and the room is balanced. That is enough. Not every decimal needs to be optimized into exhaustion. Lowering PPFD for the finish We are also beginning to reduce PPFD now as we move into the final stretch. Again, this is intentional. Late flower is not the time to keep pushing peak intensity into tissue that is already trying to mature. The bulk is built. The structure is set. Now we shift from production pressure into finishing pressure. Lowering PPFD slightly helps reduce unnecessary stress, lowers metabolic demand, and lets the plant focus more naturally on ripening rather than continued forced output. At this point, we are no longer asking for more mass. We are asking for completion. That is an important difference. Final thoughts This week is one of my favorite moments in a run. Not because it is flashy. Because it is honest. This is what the end should feel like: less intervention, more observation. less forcing, more trust. less noise, more patience. The work was already done. Now we let the plant finish saying what it was trying to say all along. Big love to everyone still following this one — the growers, the quiet readers, the long-timers, the curious ones, the skeptics, the supporters, the OGs, and even the haters. Energy moves either way. Might as well keep it good. Big love as always to Zamnesia for the genetics, to GrowDiaries for the platform, and to everyone spending time here watching this run unfold. We are close now.

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.

Aug 23: Mimosa Shot is doing fine. More sativa like than I expected bit she is starting to fill in and smells nice. She only has 8 colas because she didnt like the cool spring, but it’s hot here for at least the next 10 days so she will finish strong. Aug 26: just over 30 C today and upping water volume. Doing three waterings of about 3 L each, and spraying down grow bags when they’re in direct sun for too long. Aug 27: hot again reaching 32 C today.

2025 Fastbuds GreenHouseGrow has come to an end. Its been an absolute roller coaster of a grow. So cool to watch them grow from sprouts to absolute giants around 8ft tall. They're a great and easy strain to grow and I could only imagine having them in bigger pots how much bigger they could get. I ended up harvesting them for fresh frozen and immediately put them into the deep freezer after trimming everything that didn't have trichs on it. Excited to do some bubble wash and make FreshFrozen Rosin/Hash. All in all highly recommended and Happy Growing.

So this week she has started to really put on some chub. She's frosty like a frosty flake. I also just love her light green. Super super light green. But strong dark green healthy leaves still no sign of stress (although I can't really know deeper than what I can see- she might be mashing for some KNF shit-which I rate all plants probably are). I wanted to use supplements like OHN ( Oriental Herbal Nutrient), FPJ (Fermented plant Juice) and trying to create more living soil but I was just very busy with work at this point and did not get to making the pro-biotic supplements. Next grow I have already made some ferments and intend on making more to aid nutrition during the next ladies that get laid. But Maria's got about 11-12 Big colas, but looking back I would maybe have continued to try to keep the heads a little further apart so more light could break through to the lower nodes. I also think an investment in a proper HPS bulb-reflector would do wonders, I was using a homemade foil device to reflect light back down to the plants (NOT EFFICIENT, or sexy, but ay.)

Welcome to my Lemon Drizzle Diary Sponsored by Spider-Farmer & Barneysfarm. 1 Month Update in 1 Week. Trying a new thing, with so many diaries. I really don't need to be doing so many updates in 1 week. So, for most of my diaries apart from one I'm in contract with. I'll be applying up to 14-21 days in 1 week. This was let go for over a month. I'm giving you a month of her growth. She really is another few weeks ahead in Real Time. Days 15-42 Veg Days 10-37 weeks 3-6 1 month. Plant done very well in her early weeks coming into wk 3 she has 10 days of veg and a considerable root zone. (That was root bound) been a fem. Id no concerns about losing her roots at the end. I then decided to go for another smaller but slightly bigger pot for a few weeks to get roots going again fast that won't be an bound like that. After a few weeks coming into wk 6 I put her into her final 11L pot. And she flourished. She pult herself out of the light green edges she suffered from been stuck in a another small pot (her roots found it hard to catch their breath been root bound) but, roots are literally coming out the end of the 11L pot now. She's at the end of wk 6 after going through hard defoliations at the start of wk 3 well into and beyond wk 6. And I've made myself 4 very nice tight long nodes with lots of inters built up. When she's put to into pre flower this week I'll start to open her up lightly. Not much. As there is only 4 nodes so, there's not much to LST but pulling them slight apart from each other. Light SE5000 is doing a smashing job. I've only had it up to 85%. Really good co2 light. And this lady is far away from the light. So, she's maybe getting 45% of her power. She's getting 40k lux. When its in fattening she'll be getting 65-70k Co2 Is kept between 8-1300. Average is 1000. Temp is between 31-33c slight dip. Thanks to Barneysfarm for their 2022-23 Releases. And to Spider-Farmer for allowing me to try their new Upgraded 2023 Spectrum SE5000. Both amazing companies with great products in their own right. Much appreciated for the support. Thanks for stopping by. I look forward to seen your work. Either way, thanks for dropping in.

An Tag 10 (nach Keimung) gegossen (1,3L, meist drain von ca. 200 bis 300 ml) und Gewicht notiert. Gesättigter 5l stoffpot wiegt bei mir ca. 2.7-2,8kg. Das Schwierigste ist,dass alles gut läuft und sie mich nicht brauchen. Schaue trotzdem täglich einfach so für 10 min meine Mädels an 😍. Habe 2 weitere e27 2700k 13w 1521 lm hinzugefügt. Weniger wegen des Lichtes,sondern um die Temperatur noch etwas höher zu bekommen. Klappt bisher gut ,sodass auf stofftopf Ebene jetzt auch ca. 25 grad herrechen. Immernoch bei 300-400 ppfd laut photone. Edit Day 15: Weitere 2x 20W 4000K 2500 lm hinzugefügt. Insgesamt jetzt 182 W, ca. 28-29 °C max temps. Heute gegossen - waren bei 60% des gesättigten Gewichts.

D120. We have arrived at the twelfth and final week of this grow. Twelve weeks of flower is plenty, and the trichomes are starting to mature. In any case, I soon need to move the light into another tent, so chop day is almost here no matter what. ------------------------------ D121. I was going to wait a while longer, but today, I said fuck it and chopped the girls. They are now hanging in the tent, and there's an Inkbird controller connected to a humidifier and dehumidifier, keeping the humidity at 60%. Now we wait at least two weeks for the dry to finish. ------------------------------

So she got the chop 2 weeks prior to what I wanted, but I did not lollipop enough doing this Scrog and suffered high humidity, lack of airflow and as a result lost 4 tops... Out of 16 big ones. But I have harvest, wet trimmed and left to hang dry in a room on clothes drier. Room circulation fan on low, and temp is 22c with 51% humidity. Aiming for a 10day dry it maybe sooner. Then we will smoke test and cure then re test 🙌💚 Thank you all for following along this LONG and heartbreaking breaking Journey
