Grow Diary – Day 79 (Flowering Day 59) Strain: Sour Frootz by Karma Genetics Plants: 4 clones Training: HST + SCROG Nutrients: Flushing – pH-adjusted water only Lighting: LED at 50% intensity Date: May 30 Status: Final flush in progress – harvest slightly delayed Today marks Flowering Day 59, and the Sour Frootz are now well into the ripening phase. For the past three days, only pH-adjusted water has been given, initiating the flush phase. At this point, the nutrients in the soil are nearly depleted, and the plants are naturally drawing on internal reserves—visible through gradual leaf yellowing and fade. The plants are approaching ideal harvest maturity. The delay in harvest by a few days allows more amber to develop and maximizes terpene maturity without compromising overall quality. Lighting Conditions: • The LED is currently running at 50% power to gently finish the ripening process while minimizing light stress and preserving essential oils during these final days. Plant Observations: • Buds are hard, resinous, and aromatic • Strong sour/citrus funk intensifies with every day • Natural senescence is occurring – older fan leaves fading evenly • No nutrient deficiencies or toxicity present • Humidity stable around 50%, airflow is optimal • No signs of mold or late-stage issues Outlook: Harvest is likely to occur within the next 3–5 days, depending on final trichome checks and desired effect. You’re in the home stretch now, with flavor and resin peaking. Continuing to monitor closely for optimal harvest timing is key from here.

Día 18. Estoy en la 3ra semana de crecimiento. Apliqué HST en las dos ramas altas para poder igualar la altura con las otras dos. Por el momento viene todo en marcha. Solamente hubo un poco de stress con hojas un poco arrugadas por exceso de nutrientes. Así que hoy rebajé la solución con un poco de agua. En 3 o 4 semanas debería estar en condiciones de cortar los esquejes que voy a necesitar para el sistema completo. Inicialmente voy a usar un módulo que ya tenía armado que hice con un cajón plástico. Ese es para 4 esquejes y la madre. Pero es muy chico para el espacio que tengo. Así que inicialmente usaré este y luego armaré uno para 9 o 7 plantas. Veremos cuan cómodo queda con 5 plantas por ahora, porque quizá prefiero hacer 7 plantas cómodas y no meter 9 y después no poder manejar el espacio. La idea es que la madre vaya al medio y los esquejes alrededor. Día 21. Rocíe la planta con tierra de diatomeas como preventivo. Sigo aplicando HST para lograr que las ramas bajas tomen protagonismo,y ya que van a ser los esquejes que use. De todos modos estoy viendo en el crecimiento que la genetica no está bien estabilizada. Los bancos de semillas argentinos, hasta ahora han sido decepción en cada siembra que hice, por lo cual no me sorprendería que esta también lo sea. Estoy analizando la idea de pasar a floración la planta así cómo está en el indoor grande y arrancar con una genética europea que tengo guardada para la próxima. Porque correr riesgos innecesarios me costaría mucho tiempo. Por el momento mantengo la solución, ya que en crecimiento la suelo hacer durar 10 o 15 días. Principalmente cuando la planta tiene menos de 4 semanas. Esta semana que arranca voy a definir que hago con esta genética. De paso subo un video con la configuración casi terminada del indoor. Pero cuando esté funcionando se va a entender mejor.

📆 Semana 4: Con el pH del coco terminando de ajustarse y el entorno radicular ya plenamente equilibrado, la planta consolida su floración funcional. El estiramiento se detiene y los puntos florales se compactan en las puntas, con mayor densidad de pistilos y estructura ya fijada. Los riegos siguen acompasando la demanda sin acumulaciones, manteniendo EC estable y favoreciendo una absorción limpia. La respuesta aérea se mantiene óptima: hojas firmes, color uniforme y una expresión aromática cítrica más intensa y definida. Semana de afirmación floral y estabilidad radicular tras el ajuste del medio. Seguimos creciendo fuerte 💪!

Full on flower mode. Stacking nicely 🙏🏾

DAY 21 FLOWERING: Howdy folks. Here we are on day 21 flowering for these willing and healthy Zamnesia ladies. They took no time at all to relish back up again following their defol earlier in the week. I took a fair bit of leaf matter out and also did a little popcorn stripping too. Now it looks as if I never did anything at all. This used to be my dilemma with the debate surrounding defoliation, however , the size and shape of the leaves that were removed, would have been huge and needed a lot of space and airflow to remain healthy alone , never mind flourishing in flower !. Removing those leaves has not stunted the flowering process or halted the stretch period either. The smaller helpers have now become the bigger powerhouses and filled the plants frame with big green spectrum grabbers. I am going to remove some more leaf to allow more airflow and light to get around the multiple bud sites that litter the canopy from every angle but have been shaded and tucked away behind leaves. Getting light on to the stem is a goal too . If light gets there , so can fresh air !. They have all grown a lot this week and containing them is going to be fun as the get buds fattening too. I am considering putting my new light in for a little wider coverage now as I think they will need it possibly. I have a viparspectra p4000 getting Ansy in its box and it wants to get involved.lol The Girl scouts are thriving with so much growth on the #2 that she doesnt know which site to focus on so it going for them all. She has a lot of potential bid sites. #1 is a more natural growth pattern with lots of secondaries wanting g main status. The Amnesia haze had a good strip out to get that huge bushy appearance change , they have all cone back with a vengeance and will be stripped again a little now. The signs of calmag def are still around but I am trying to avoid having to add it in in flowering this run to see how much difference it makes with the feeds I am using. So far no issues with feeding at all and they are only showing a slight tip burn from the strength probably. I am still pulling them lateral each room visit to encourage them to find their own growing space that works for them and so far so good and they are playing ball. They are drinking all of their feed very quickly now so i will have to up the feed times now I think . I am feeding every 3 days with approx 3L each pot . seeing how the 1# Girl scout looked , I think every other day now . Let's see what the next week brings. Be happy growmies.

Day 82 approximately one week give or take till harvest. Still not seeing much amber but I guess it’ll start soon. This is only my second ever grow so I’m still learning as I go. Buds are dense and sticky.

Semana tranquila , pero me metí al armario hoy para verlas y encontré 1 mosca ,la eliminé y usé un preventivo .. Están impecables , conforme con su resultado , algunas ya están saliendo sus raíces por todos lados ... Linda #lemonkingevaseeds Pronto estaremos pasando a scrog y floración .. ya me piden transplante !!

They are starting to get fat. I’m harvesting pink at the end of this week, still no obvious amber trichomes but she isn’t getting much fatter either, she has about 90% orange pistils. Canna cheese is maturing well, giving out crazy color combinations and getting thicker by the day, she’s next after pink kush.

Transplant week, loving that bat mix!

She's really packing on the weight now, lots of tricomes developing, and getting that great earthy aroma goin, got her on bud candy and overdrive, let's she how fat she can get!

Day 100 for the 54 plant grow. 44 different strains of photoperiods and 10 different autoflower strains in the: 8X8 GROW TENT WITH THE NEW          FC-E6500, FC4800 AND TSW2000 AND THE NEW 5X5 GROW TENT WITH A TSW2000 👍and they are being fed GREEN BUZZ LIQUIDS all organic/vegan fertilizers🤘. I only pinched the tops on 2 or 3 plants but I defoliated every plant ALOT. it slowed the vertical growth alot but it's exactly what I wanted. I can keep track of the plant sizes, how they grew, how healthy they were, how easy they were to grow and how good the final product is👍 every plant was given the same strength of GREEN BUZZ LIQUIDS and I'm keeping track of which plants were happy with the suggested amounts and which plants seemed to want more or less🤘 ALL THE AUTOFLOWERS ARE NOW CHOPPED. The girls are loving their MARS MANSION and WITH THE 5X5 INLAW SUITE and everything is doing good and looking nice and getting bigger👍 They are all starting to look like buds now and the bud sacs are swelling and they are all getting nice and frosty and starting to stink ALOT.

Blueberry Pie is off to a great start. It's 4 days behind the gorilla gas in the tent but catching up. I'm really excited for this one because I love any type of blueberry strains and it's a F1 so it should produce high quality flower. I will be posting timelapse videos throughout the grow and will update as much as possible.

Week 6 | Forbidden Runtz Auto She’s moving fast. Up to 61cm this week — another strong push in height with branching filling out well across the whole canopy. Structure looks solid, internodal spacing is tight, and the foliage is a deep healthy green throughout. No complaints from this one. Conditions unchanged: 17h natural light, 1L per plant per 24h, pH 6.2, EC 1.2 mS/cm. Day temps still hitting 28°C, nights at 18°C, humidity at 60%. Nutrient stack holding steady: CANNA Aqua Vega 3ml/l, CalMag Agent 0.9ml/l, Aptus Regulator 0.1ml/l. Updates every Sunday. Stay tuned.
