ordered 10 gallon pots for the 2 blue dream and pineapple express they are going into a different tent. Plan on replanting Friday. Autos all are doing fine, think I've been having issues with cal mag hopefully I can get it sorted out. All the plants are pretty big at this point except the gelato #33 its so small lol. Very crowed in a 4x4 and the plants need more room maybe moving the photos out will help the autos out and let them spread out more. Ordered some Recharge, excited to try out. I heard about it on dude grows lol great podcast 👏 Picked up some blue planet liquid seaweed and also their gold shield silica, also excited to try. Lastly got some Dynomyco to add in. Both blue dream and pineapple express are in their new home another 4x4 tent. Only running 1 halide at 400 watts and a small mars led. Will boost the light up significantly during flower with 1200 actual watts and change out to super lumen hps. Running a terrabloom carbon scrubber out of the second hid hood all powered by a 6 inch AC Infinity cloudline venting outdoors. Also using another 6 inch to bring in fresh air and have a portable ac to keep it nice and cool I think its important to mention after every grow I like to go in and clean out my tent. Vacuum up leaves/dirt, Wipe down all surfaces of the tent(I use paper towels and water in a spray bottle) and also clean off my lights. Wipe them down make sure the glass is cleaned(It makes a big difference). I grow strictly for my own personal consumption and I want the cleanest product.

- Adjusting nutrients level and PH. - Defoliation to provide light to lower branches. - Healthy roots showing across the medium. - Adjust LST.

7/3/22 I was a little rushed today, and didn’t have the chance to take any new pics for todays log entry. 🤷 It’s not like I’m not going to add a bunch more photos later in the week. This week we’re starting with the Mid-Bloom, step 3 nutrients on our feed chart. I mixed two separate gallons to feed my 4 girls as usual. Each plant received half a gallon of water with the following: CALiMAGic - 2 ml FloraMicro - 4.7 ml FloraGro - 3.8 ml FloraBloom - 8.5 ml Floralicious Plus - 2 ml Liquid KoolBloom - 2 ml Each of the 2 gallons had a pH of 6.4, and wasn’t adjusted. My tap water has been exceptional lately! Each of the plants had plenty of runoff with the following pH level: #1 & #3 - 5.9. #2 - 6.1. #4 - 5.8 My girls are super tall, and have bodes all over the place. They are all developing nice pistils everywhere, and should each yield quite a bit. I’m looking forward to watching them mature! Happy 4th of July to all of you in the USA 🇺🇸! Independence Day!! Happy growing everyone! 7/5/22 These 4 Ladies are going to be the death of me, I swear! I know you all HAVE to be sick of reading about their growth, but damn! These bitches could be super models! I last measured them on 6/29/22, and was astounded then by their growth. Now, I’m just blown away. Since 6/29/22: #1 has grown 12 inches, and is now 55 inches tall. #2 has grown 11.5 inches, and is now 54 inches tall. #3 - 12.5 inches, now 49 inches tall. #4 - 14.5 inches, now 51.5 inches tall. I had to do some mild LST today. I tied a bunch of the branches on #1 & #2 today. Loosely, but closer in in order to improve stability, and open up space in my tent. Some of their branches have become so long that they are being pulled apart by gravity. I used some rubber coated, malleable metal poles to tie loose circles around branches, and then wrap the other end around the other branches on the opposite side. I also defoliated #1 & #2. It’s not pretty, but it seemed to work. I need to do the same to the other two, but time, and supplies didn’t cooperate. Enough about the maintenance. Let’s get to the feeding. We’re keeping with the mid-bloom nutrients mixed into a pair of gallons full of water. The pH of both gallons measured at 6.4. #1&2 share 1 gallon, and #3&4 share the other. Each gave back plenty of runoff with the following pH levels. #1 - 5.9 #2 - 6.1 #3 - 6.0 #4 - 5.8 The tent was 83F, with humidity at 65%. I’m hoping the adjusted fan helps with the humidity, and I also hope my girls react well to being tied up. Happy growing everyone! 7/7/22 Today, Stella’s Cuatro ended up getting the same treatment as their mother. Each of them were the recipient of some serious High Stress Training (HST). All of them have super long branches that were making them almost unmanageable, so I got to taping and bending branches today until nearly all of their branches had been bent over 90*. Sorry for the asterisk, but I didn’t have a degree icon to use. Bending their branches made space in the tent to some degree as well. They don’t look so crowded anymore, but later on I’m going to have the same issues that I’m having with their mother now. Branch weight! It seems silly to complain about all the time, but damn they are all huge plants! I know that some of you may be thinking that you’d probably rather stay away from this cultivar, but that would be a mistake. I bitch, and moan a lot about these plants, but regardless of the headaches they give me, they are still absolutely wonderful plants. They grow strong and healthy regardless of what I do to them. They develop ginormous buds, and the effects of this cultivar are still my all time favorite. They are resilient giants that produce a lot of bud! The first cultivar I ever grew was this one, DarkStar, and 1 plant produced almost half a pound of top shelf bud after everything was dried and jarred up. I’m looking forward to another wonderful haul from these 4, their mother, and another 2 younger siblings.” Each plant received 1/2 gallon of solution with a pH of 6.5. Each has sufficient runoff except #3. She didn’t have any runoff. The others were as follows: #1 & 4 - 5.8 #2 - 6.0. The tent was 83.3F, and humidity was 56%. Life is good. Happy growing everyone!

Our Gush Mintz Automatic from Zamnesia has given us great satisfaction, this one is a nice big plant that will give us about 80-100 gr. ** We remind all users that we grow two plants per strain, one worked with specific techniques and the other left to grow freely and beautifully or worked with uncut techniques to preserve speed. In this case the first was worked with LST but after a mistake with the main lining that had led to the breakage of a brunch and this one with a single topping. Description // This plant was worked with a single topping but leaving under the topping two "levels" or rather two internodes of branches that gave us a nice bushy plant. The flowers have joined in beautiful long Tower Buds and not so tapered, the plant is quite full and the flowering is sufficiently dense. Trichomes and maturation // We did a thorough microscopic analysis 10x (and 10x x 1.6) and noticed a good percentage of milky/lumpy trichomes; The percentage of amber trichomes was not so much but good for me with still a bit transparent too. That's fine for us as we're not crazy about THC oxidation and hyper indica effects around here. Fertilizers and soil // We used the Plagron organic fertilizer range, all the recommended additives and Pro Mix soil, both unfertilized and organic. Calculate the dosage according to your needs on the website ------ https://plagron.com/ The nutrients are available in convenient packs on the Zamnesia website --------- https://www.zamnesia.io/en/11457-plagron-easy-pack-natural.html Try this strain, it is one of the best in recent years, with a very high THC level ---- https://www.zamnesia.io/en/11234-zamnesia-gush-mintz-automatic-semi.html Zamnesia Brief Description // Gush Mintz Auto is a relaxing hybrid strain derived from the original Gush Mintz and a high-performance ruderalis specimen. This cross has produced a plant with 70% indica and 30% sativa genetics. Her parents have given her some interesting characteristics, including mint and candy aromas and a high THC content of 20%. Smoking these buds provides creative vibes, a feeling of euphoria and a pleasant high that lasts from head to toe. In addition to its enticing flavors and powerful effects, Gush Mintz Auto produces large yields of compact buds in just 9-10 weeks from germination. Gush Mintz Auto is extremely easy to grow, with plants reaching an average height of 70cm indoors and 120cm outdoors, making her ideal for discreet grows or limited space, both indoors and outdoors. This strain is suitable for LST (Low Stress Training) and performs best when grown in the ScrOG technique (a technique that optimizes light exposure to maximize yields). Intense aromas and deeply relaxing effects As Gush Mintz Auto grows, her aroma intensifies, releasing sweet and minty notes. This refreshing flavor profile is perfect for smoking, offering an inviting combination of minty freshness and sweetness. The effects are deeply relaxing, enveloping the body in a pleasant sensation of well-being without being overly sedative.

Probably about 2-3 weeks of Veg

I have observed substantial growth in my babies, unfortunately, I will not be able to complete the intended 9 weeks of vegetation before transitioning to the flowering stage. This is due to an upcoming relocation to a more suitable location that offers ample space for strain cycling and the maintenance of mother plants for cloning purposes. I am eagerly anticipating the flowering phase, particularly for the Gelato 41 strain, which is already emitting a pleasant aroma.

keep an eye on ph and EC i top up approx 2ml of A+B per day I think she finally stopped stretching , this is when I start to lower the base nutrients , one of them is a little behind the other , she has some wicked buds forming

Grow Report — Nectar Drip GrowDiaries Week 10 (Actual Week ~6–7 from Seed) First things first, a small clarification for anyone following the diary closely. On GrowDiaries this report appears as Week 10, but in reality the plants are around week 6–7 from seed. The reason is simple: the first entry in the diary was created during germination and no photos were uploaded at that moment, so the timeline shifted a little on the platform. So for accuracy: plants are currently around week 6–7 from seed and well into early flower. Now let’s talk about what has been happening. ⸻ Quick Recap For anyone just arriving to the diary, here’s the short version of the journey so far. The goal of this run has always been simple: grow healthy plants, observe them carefully, and share the process honestly. The environment has been kept stable and relatively simple: • 12/12 from seed • balanced feeding schedule • steady environmental control • minimal intervention unless the plants ask for it Up until now we mostly focused on guiding growth and observation, allowing the plants to express themselves naturally while keeping the canopy organized. And they are doing exactly that. ⸻ This Week — The Garden Is Exploding This week the girls are looking absolutely incredible. Structure is strong. Color is perfect. Leaf health is excellent. And the most exciting part: trichomes are already everywhere. Even at this stage the plants are starting to sparkle. Resin production is clearly ramping up and the flowers are stacking beautifully. Height is now roughly around one meter to a little over one meter, creating a very healthy canopy without stretching out of control. Honestly, these are beautiful specimens and a joy to watch develop. ⸻ Defoliation — Why We Did It Now This week we performed a targeted defoliation. This was not done because the plants were struggling or because something was wrong. We did it by choice and by timing. The reasoning is simple: It is often easier and less stressful to remove certain leaves earlier in flower rather than waiting until the canopy becomes dense and airflow becomes restricted. So we removed only what was necessary to: • improve light penetration • increase air movement inside the canopy • reduce future humidity pockets • allow the flowers to develop in a more open environment Nothing aggressive. Nothing excessive. Just removing leaves that were clearly blocking key flower sites. This kind of intervention is always a balance. Different growers prefer different approaches, but in this case it felt like the right moment to open the canopy a bit. Now we observe how the plants respond. ⸻ First Structural Training This week also marks the first time we applied some stronger structural training to these girls. Until now the plants were mostly guided and allowed to develop naturally. At this stage we introduced a bit more direction to the structure so the canopy develops evenly and future flower sites receive better light exposure. Again, nothing extreme. The idea is simply to help the plant organize itself for the next weeks of flowering. The real feedback from this will come in the next report, where we will see how they react. ⸻ Environmental Conditions The room is currently running around: Temperature: ~28°C Relative Humidity: ~68% Outside conditions at the moment are: ~10°C with about 87% humidity Considering the outside environment, we are actually very happy with how stable the room is staying. But one thing worth mentioning: We don’t chase room VPD numbers too aggressively. What really matters is leaf VPD and plant response. Plants tell the truth much better than charts do. Right now the plants look extremely happy: • strong leaves • no stress signals • steady growth • excellent resin development So the environment is clearly working for them. ⸻ Nutrients Feeding remains exactly the same for now. No changes this week. The current nutrient schedule continues to support healthy growth and there is no reason to modify something that is clearly working. Sometimes the best move in the garden is simply: don’t change what isn’t broken. ⸻ Introducing a New Team Member This week we also officially welcomed a new member to the team: Mr. Baggy. He has already been making appearances around the garden and many of you may have spotted him in some of the photos. He’s now officially part of the crew and helping around the studio and garden. Please give him a warm welcome when you see him around the diary. He’s a cool guy and we’re happy to have him with us. ⸻ Gratitude As always, huge appreciation to everyone who takes time to visit this diary. To the: • longtime followers • new visitors • curious growers • supporters • skeptics • lovers • haters Everyone has a space here. If energy crosses paths here, something is being exchanged and that always has value. Special thanks as well to: • the breeders behind these genetics • the GrowDiaries platform • the entire GD community And of course to the sponsors supporting the project. ⸻ What To Expect Next Over the next weeks we will mainly observe how the plants respond to the structural adjustments made this week. Things we’ll be watching closely: • flower stacking • resin development • canopy response after defoliation • structural balance of the plants If everything continues like this, the next weeks should be very exciting. The girls are clearly entering the phase where the flowers start building real weight and character. And we’ll be here documenting every step. 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. 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. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

Last week of life, she is yellowing the leaves rippening faster than the week before, and Bad weather is here, during the middle of this week, so it rained hard dirung a couple of days, high RH and even more bugs are trying to eat the plant.... Aphids, flies, ants... They attract each other so what a jungle hahaha Im giving the plant a H202 bath to get rid of that bugs, they are really annoying hahaha damn fuckers, but they know whats a good therpene profile hahaha, really, if you could smell this plant would intstantly know that is a piece of cake for the bugs :) Hairs are like 90-100% orange Buds are covered by a nice layer of resin and THC ^^ Im happy, as my second auto, ended like an homogeneous bush, all buds at the same level, but now i think i should had removed more lower leaves to increase airflow... Take care boyzzz and girlzzz, and remember, smoke at least one joint a day if its possible hahaha :D

People of the ganja world, here we are, he second plant has gone down, we apologise to anyone affected by PTSD from the two towers, it was not our intention to harm you with the similarity. Our Buddy Buddha from the start to the end lived its life next to Powell, they were close! Now that the final curtain has been drawn.. or tent flap, it is with a sad heart that we at the "In the Closet with Two Strains" Studio will be saying goodbye. She was never the most impressive plant, kept feeling like she would bloom more but the conditions were never truly right for her. Both plants had their branches sliced at the stem and large leaves removed, this purposely slowed drying down to maximise end flavour. They were both washed in cleaning pools to prepare them for their final journey in the tent. With a sad heart we wish you farewell Buddy, we will see you and Powell soon... IN OUR SMOKE REPORT! Yes it is time to get these ladies dried and ready to serve their purpose, life is a party, so let us have one! See you soon folks!

Just water and honey for last few days. I washing my babies with water and honey. Finaly fnishing this project very proud. It finished. Trimming time next few days

Le ragazze 🌱sono entrate in fioritura.🌻..ho fatto una defoliazione per permettere un po di areazione visto che gli internodi sono molto ravvicinati...ora aspettiamo che le ragazze iniziano ad allungare...fatto anche un cambio completo della soluzione nutrienti e aggiunti rurro il necessario per una buona fioritura...

Still looking fair. I'm waiting for the fourth node before I top it the first time. Day 13 the fourth node was out yesterday so I topped it for the first time to begin mainlining. Transplanting into the final container (7 gallon fabric pot) to continue indoor growth until it's warm enough to send it outdoors

Haven't been staying updated... I know the Girl Scout Cookies 🍪 has got some nute burn... But she'll be alright... Don't know what's going on there.. Have another really new strain I've never grown that's Limited Edition by Green House Seed Co... It's burning up a bit too.. Just must be sensitive.. Everything else it growing good. Try to keep this up to date more now that things are settling down a little bit.

Decent week, noticed some pregnant buds so i have temoved the little ones that i see and any other hermies i missed but not much. Buds are starting to get unique smells and traits as far as bud structure just added new light today

Day 29 Watered 400ml HulkBerry and removed some of the small lower branches with flowers. Day 31 Watered 500ml HulkBerry and 200ml WeddingCake and removed two big leaves wich were covering lower flowers. Day 34 watered 700ml WeddingCake and 400 HulkBerry Day 35 watered each 300ml

Flowers beautiful flowers! 🌺 to start of dynomyco has really done it’s job with the purple urkle and she already in bloom and is nearly to the second scrog, the grape ape has ONLY just started her stretch as she’s right at the first scrog about to push through as she only just pushed pistols today and I’m putting that down to her healing through transitioning as I had to trim her leaves and lower stems during transition as they’d be a problem later on! But all in all a great week and on my way to a great flowering!

In Questa nuova settimana, sto avendo dei problemi con tutto il ciclo di irrigazione, e con l ossigenatore. I tubi che portano l’acqua alle piante sembrano essere saturi di residuo della soluzione, ed inoltre l ossigenatore non porta abbastanza aria all interno della vasca e l’acqua risulta essere torbida. Se qualcuno della community può darmi dei consigli ne sarei molto grato
