The first week of flowering is now complete, and the plants have transitioned smoothly into the flowering stage. They have begun their initial stretch, reaching eagerly toward the light and showing vigorous, healthy growth across the canopy. To accommodate this rapid vertical growth, I have been raising the light by approximately 5 cm every two to three days, ensuring a consistent distance from the canopy. At the same time, I increased the light intensity to level 7, providing approximately 700 µmol/m²/s of PPFD, which is well suited for this stage of flowering. Over the coming weeks, I plan to gradually increase the light intensity further, with the goal of reaching between 900 and 1,000 µmol/m²/s as the plants enter peak flower production. The canopy remains remarkably even, although Gelato continues to be slightly smaller than the others. Rather than being a concern, this appears to be a characteristic of the cultivar, as she simply doesn't seem to stretch as much during the early flowering phase. Overall, the first week of bloom has gone exactly as planned. The plants are healthy, responding well to the environmental adjustments, and the flowering stretch is now fully underway.

Adding more nutes worked, all plants look happy now 👌 The smell is fruity and crispy already. I will do some yellow leaf defoliation tomorrow.

Hello again, GrowDiaries family! 😎 We’ve officially entered Week 10 (4th week of flowering) and the Critical is truly showing her full potential. This week has been all about environmental management and keeping the plant’s metabolism at its peak despite the winter chill. 📏 Precision Measurements & Training -Height: Steady at 37 cm. Vertical growth has stopped as she focuses all her energy on flower production. -Canopy Management: The LST has done a great job. The canopy is perfectly flat, ensuring that every "pompom" gets the same light intensity. -Visual Check: I’ve taken the plant out of the tent for some photos under white light to show the real progress of the trichomes without the LED distortion. 🌡️ Environment & Climate Challenges -Temperature: We’ve faced some tricky nights at 12°C, reaching 27°C during the day. -The Strategy: To prevent the plant from stalling due to the cold nights, I’ve started watering with lukewarm water. This keeps the root zone active and ensures nutrients are still being absorbed effectively. -Humidity (RH): Stable at 40-45%, ideal for keeping the developing buds safe and dry. 💧 Watering & Organic Pest Control -Nutrient Strategy: Still going strong with the full Biobizz schedule (Bio-Grow 1ml, Bio-Bloom 2ml, and Top-Max 1ml) in 1L of water. She is responding beautifully with no signs of overfeeding. -The Cinnamon Trick: 🛡️ I noticed some fungus gnats last week, so I applied a generous layer of ground cinnamon on the soil surface. It’s an old-school, 100% organic remedy that acts as a natural fungicide. Result: The gnats are completely gone! 🌿 Flower & Resin Evolution -The sugar has arrived! ❄️ Resin is now heavily coating the sugar leaves and the buds are thickening up fast. The white pistils are abundant and healthy. The aroma is becoming much more complex and penetrating! Thanks for the comments and for following this grow! Happy growing to all.😉👍

Harvest one of the bbm cross and it pretty good , gotta grow four to six plants to pull weight I got 72 grams and I was smoking off off it . But the other should give me a lot more. This cheese danish x gmintz is a weight grabbers dream a little stretchy and probably gonna hit ninety days one this one so I’m let both run that long . So yeah the smell is still the same and it not loud which is good mean that is cool and there keeping all they terms and people don’t know if you weed is loud it probably because it to hot for your plants I’m just being honest.. but yeah hope yall enjoyed these as much as I did but I got some fire coming next round . Keep growing and your way is the right way don’t let know body tell you different.

🍒 Ernte der Critical Cherry an Blütetag 64. Die Trichome sind zu etwa 20% bernsteinfarben. Die Pflanze verströmt einen süßen Geruch, der mich an das alte bubblegum erinnert. Riecht auf jeden Fall sehr lecker. Die Erntemenge ist definitiv überdurchschnittlich. Aufgrund der wirklich sehr fetten Blüten hatte ich erst Angst vor Schimmel, aber ich konnte beim ernten zum Glück keinen entdecken. Werde diesen Breeder auf jeden Fall im Hinterkopf behalten und habe auch noch Samen ihrer Mimosa x Kush Mints hier, die bei einem der kommenden Grows zum Einsatz kommen werden, wenn sie auch beim Konsum Qualität zeigt.

Not much longer... very pretty strain. Smells like berries.

The nutes above were mixed with 16.9 fl oz of tap water every other day after no nutes or water on monday of week 9. fan leaves were trimmed on day 3 of week 10 1hr before lights out

🎩🌈🍬

Switched from 24/0 to 12/12 at the end of day 14, also switched the 730nm Led's on. Its been 7 days the plants have started growing a lot faster but there's still no pistils showing. I started feeding biobizz grow @ 2ml/l At the moment there getting watered every 3-4 days. The light is showing 25000lux on a lux meter app.

Day 18: She is absolutely loving the LED. Over the past few days she's been pushing out some new leaves. I gave her the first big water of her life today with 3 cups of regular tap water. Day 20: The leaves she's pushing out are becoming nice and wide, I personally really like the shape of them. I'm so happy to finally have a decent light and grow space!

12/20 - Fog Dog (Atlas seeds) started the paper towel method a day before the rest. The Fog Dog will be my “tester” plant. I will see how this plant handles different factors compared to the other 3 seeds. 12/21 - Put Double Grape, Tangerine Dream, and Glue Gelato in separate wet paper towels and ziplocks to pop. Tested well water. Ph at 6.0 and TDS/PPM at 43. 12/22 - Still waiting for seeds to do their thing using the paper towel method. 12/22 (7p) - -TD and GG both cracked and showed their fancy tails, so I put both in 3 gal fabric pots. FD cracked as well with tail; however, I put that in a 2 gal, as I am testing this one out. Was going to mix the Rabbit Creek Farm soil with Ocean Forest...but I forgot to mix in the Ocean Forest, so there's that. Have a feeling the Mephisto Double Grape will crack tomorrow and be moved into a 3 gal. -Temp in the tent is between 71.6-73 degrees F (TSW 2000 turned down from 100% to 25%. -Humidifier is acting funky. I want it to stay at my selected RH, but for now it is hovering between 64-67 mostly and 70-72. Needs permanent fixture...I dont like the range being off like that.

Plant is 8 weeks from seed today, stretching has now stopped and she is starting to fill out now. It looks like the feed will sit at 2ml A +B to a litre as she hasn't shown signs of wanting anything more although pk 13/14 will be added in roughly 3 weeks time. She's been drinking a lot more last few days

Flushed and flushing!!!!

War eh nur ein Experiment, wie sich die Pflanzen bei 4 h direktem Sonnenlicht verhalten auf dem Balkon. Ertrag ist dem entsprechend gering & die Dichte der Blüte fehlt, sehr sehr Fluffig aber der Geruch/Geschmack erinnert an 2014er Vibes. Also Smoke Qualität ist super und die Wirkung sehr klar & clean. Werde die Sorte sicherlich nochmal im Zelt ausgrown.

Day 52: La mia adorabile cream cookies è entrata finalmente in fioritura, sicuramente avrò avuto qualche parametro sbagliato, ma sembra andare tutto bene anche questa settimana, tardiva ma comunque soddisfacente. Adesso nessun errore e si comincia a volare 😍💚

🍼Greenhouse Feeding BioGrow & Bio Bloom 🌱GARDEN OF GREEN SEEDS ⛺️MARSHYDRO The ⛺️ has a small door 🚪 on the sides which is useful for mid section groom room work. 🤩 ☀️ by VIPARSPECTRA (models: P2000 & XS 2000)

Continued growth, feeding every 3 days as soil dries out. Nice growth spurts noted and apical dominance broken via LST as limbs/new growth reach skyward. Minor fan leaf removal to permit light saturation and airflow to lower areas. Getting a little crowded! We will let the canopy grow towards the light another inch or 2 with minor LST adjustments or at 2 weeks from now (which ever happens first,) before we will make the decision to flip to flower cycle. Feeding 3/5 gallon per plant about every 3 days.
