It’s awesome it likes to be away from the light the one that was off to the side far out performed the one that was directly beneath. Both are nice though and have the same smell, taste and bud structure. After proper drying and curing it honestly can’t be beaten. Fantastic aroma and flavour and a really good strong stone. Calming, relaxing and meditative.😍😍😍😍😍😍

Harvest & Trim Report — RollerCoaster Haze (Zamnesia Seeds) Overview We’ve reached the end of the RollerCoaster Haze ride. After an intense and rewarding flowering period, the girls were harvested and processed with care. This is a full documentation of the final stage: harvest timing, drying method, trimming workflow, kief collection and pressing, and final yields. This harvest produced excellent results from two phenotypes — a true tribute to the genetics and the ecosystem we built around them. Final dry yields: • Pheno #3: 138 g (dry, trimmed bud) • Pheno #2: 224 g (dry, trimmed bud) Total dry bud: 362 g We also collected kief and pressed it into a beautiful resinous hash using heat and pressure; this sits alongside the cured flower and will be part of the upcoming smoke review. ⸻ Harvest Timing & Rationale The decision to harvest was made after careful observation of trichome and pistil development, the overall fade, aroma intensity, and the plants’ finish-line behaviour. The last weeks of the run had been dedicated to ripening: we completed the last balanced feed, then transitioned to plain water and a spectral end-season program (reduced whites/blues, elevated red/far-red/UV). These cues — combined with visible trichome development and the natural fade in the canopy — indicated the plants were ready to come down. ⸻ Cutting & Whole-Plant Drying • Each plant was cut whole and hung to dry intact. • Drying duration: two weeks (full-plant hang), at the environment you maintained (consistent conditions around your final stage set point). This allowed a controlled, gradual loss of moisture and preserved aromatic compounds and trichome integrity. • Drying environment was monitored and managed with the same attention as the grow: consistent airflow, humidity control and gentle circulation to avoid hotspots while preventing too rapid desiccation. (Notes: this section is a narrative of what i did. For clarity on local rules and safety, always follow local regulations and recommended practices.) ⸻ Trimming Workflow • After the two-week hang, the plants were moved to a dedicated trimming area and placed in the trim bin for processing. • Trimming method: primarily hand trim, using delicate, precise trimming tools and patience — “delicatessen and love” as i put it. The emphasis was on preserving trichome-rich surfaces while shaping each bud for appearance and even curing. • Hand trimming allowed you to selectively manicure the buds, remove the remaining larger fans, and leave the finished colas in a state ideal for curing and later consumption. The results were clean, visually appealing buds with intact resin heads. ⸻ Curing & Storage • Trimmed buds were carefully placed into Grove Bags for the finish of the cure. The Grove Bags are being used as the controlled environment for the slow biochemical processes that refine aroma, smoothness, and terpene expression. • The plan is to allow the flower to finish its cure under stable conditions until ready for the smoke review. This prolonged, stable cure should bring out the nuanced haze profile the genetics promise. ⸻ Kief Collection & Resin Press • While trimming, kief was collected from the trim and from screens. The kief was then pressed into a concentrated resin/hash using heat and pressure. • The result is a solid, aromatic hash — glossy and packed with the strain’s signature terpenes — a beautiful secondary product from the harvest and a perfect complement to the flower in the smoke review. ⸻ Sensory & Quality Notes • Aroma: intensely hazy — a dominant hay-sweet note with mature, layered complexity. The smell in the drying/trim room was strong and very characteristic of a classic haze. • Appearance: colors trending golden to warm yellow tones, heavy frosting of trichomes, dense calyxes and robust colas. The buds visually convey potency and quality. • Structure: each phenotype expressed the haze identity; long internodes on some branches, dense stacking on others — overall excellent structure that translated into heavy colas and great yields. ⸻ Recap: Seed → Harvest at a Glance • Germination: pillbox water method; seeds cracked and into soil within 48 hours. Gentle Aptus start mix supported early vigor. • Vegetative: bottom-watering to promote downward root growth; transplanted and vegged with controlled training and canopy management. • Flower: early flip to 11/13; progressive nutrition with Aptus + Plagron mix; inner canopy lighting (ICL300) to support middle/low bud development; spectrum tuning (red/far-red/UV) toward the end of flower. Final flush and plain water to finish. • Harvest: judged by trichome and pistil maturity, aroma, and overall plant condition. Whole-plant hang for two weeks, then hand-trimmed and cured in Grove Bags. Kief collected and pressed to make hash. • Yield: Pheno #2 — 224 g; Pheno #3 — 138 g (dry, trimmed flower). ⸻ Gratitude & Next Steps Thank you to everyone who followed this run — your support, questions, and shared passion have been part of what made this project so rewarding.

Die Nachzüglerinnen kommen super in die blüte, trotz 16h Helligkeit ! Beide Sorten eigenen sich super für große und sehr große Gefäße! Wuchsverhalten und Struktur gefallen mir extrem gut. Widerstandsfähig gegenüber Schnecken und Thripse! Hatten bis jetzt überhaupt keine Mängel, bin geflasht vom Dünger und selbst angemixter erde. 🍀🐝

💜 Week 5 – Purple CousKush Auto (Pheno A) Every Plant Has Its Own Rhythm One of my favourite parts of growing from seed is watching each plant develop its own personality. This Purple CousKush has shared the exact same environment, feeding schedule, lighting, and care as the rest of the project since day one. She germinated under the same conditions, transitioned into the same 12/12 flowering schedule from seed, and has been treated exactly the same throughout her journey. Yet, despite identical conditions, she’s chosen her own pace. While several of her roommates rushed head-first into flowering, this young lady has taken a more measured approach, focusing first on building a solid structure before fully committing her energy to bloom. And honestly… I’m perfectly happy to let her tell her story. ⸻ 🌱 Plant Development This week she continued her steady transition into flower. Standing at approximately 66 cm, she has developed an elegant, open structure with excellent internodal spacing and strong vertical growth. Rather than producing large clusters of pistils all at once, she is introducing flowers gradually across every branch, giving the impression that she’s carefully preparing her framework before beginning the real work of stacking buds. The LST performed during the previous weeks continues to pay dividends, allowing multiple flowering sites to receive excellent light exposure while maintaining a balanced canopy. Her stems have thickened nicely, the branching remains symmetrical, and every day she seems just a little more confident. Some plants explode. Others simply keep making quiet, consistent progress. This Purple CousKush definitely belongs in the second category. ⸻ 🌿 Environment & Growing Conditions Like the rest of the Project Blue Tent, environmental conditions remained stable throughout the week. * 12/12 lighting schedule from seed * Future of Grow Black Series LED delivering approximately 850 PPFD * Mammoth Pro tent with excellent airflow * Day temperature around 31°C * Relative humidity averaging 72% * CO₂ around 639 ppm Even under these warm summer conditions, she has remained healthy, vibrant and stress-free, showing no signs of environmental discomfort. Although she hasn’t advanced into flowering quite as quickly as some of the other phenotypes, her overall health leaves absolutely no reason for concern. She’s simply moving at her own rhythm. ⸻ 💧 Feeding Program Unlike several other plants in the room, this Purple CousKush is also being hand-watered and is not connected to the AutoPot system. Growing in a 15 L Plagron Lightmix container, she received approximately 0.9 litres of nutrient solution per watering. This week’s feeding consisted of: • Terra Grow – 1.8 ml/L • Terra Bloom – 1.9 ml/L • Pure Zym – 1 ml/L • Power Roots – 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L • Power Buds – 1 ml/L The feeding program continues to provide everything she needs. Her foliage remains a healthy deep green, new growth is vigorous, and the root zone appears to be supporting strong, uninterrupted development. At this stage there is no reason to change something that is clearly working. ⸻ 🌸 Phenotype Notes This phenotype is another wonderful reminder that growing is never about comparing one plant against another. It would be easy to look across the room and notice that several plants have already pushed further into flowering. But that’s not the point. Every seed carries its own expression. Some begin flowering earlier. Some stretch more aggressively. Some invest additional time building structure before stacking flowers. This Purple CousKush seems determined to build patiently before asking for the spotlight, and I have complete confidence in allowing her to follow that path naturally. Growing isn’t a race. Harvest day eventually arrives for everyone. ⸻ 🔍 Looking Ahead The coming weeks should be very exciting. Now that flowering has clearly begun, I expect to see the stretch gradually slow while the energy shifts toward developing larger flower clusters across every branch. Her open structure should provide excellent airflow and light penetration as the buds begin to bulk up, and I’m looking forward to seeing how this phenotype expresses the beautiful colours and aromas Purple CousKush is known for later in bloom. Until then, the plan remains wonderfully simple: Stay patient. Stay consistent. Let her do what nature intended. ⸻ 💭 Final Thoughts Not every plant needs to be the fastest to become memorable. This Purple CousKush reminds me that one of the greatest lessons gardening teaches us is patience. We can create the ideal environment, provide balanced nutrition and careful training, but ultimately each plant decides the pace of its own journey. Right now she looks healthy, balanced and full of potential, and that’s more than enough for me. The flowers will come. The stacking will come. The weight will come. For now, I’m simply enjoying watching her become exactly the plant she wants to be. ⸻ 🙏 Thank You As always, a huge thank you to everyone following along with this adventure. Your comments, encouragement, questions and shared experiences make these diaries far more enjoyable than if I were growing alone. A special thank you to all of the incredible companies helping make this project possible: 💜 Zamnesia for the genetics. 💜 Plagron for the nutrition. 💜 Future of Grow for the amazing lighting. 💜 TrolMaster for helping keep everything under control. And finally, thank you, the GrowDiaries community. Whether you’ve been here since the very beginning or you’ve only just joined this journey, I truly appreciate every visit, every comment, every like and every bit of support. Until next week… Growers Love and happy growing! 🌱💚

Que pasa familia, vamos con la séptima semana de floración de estas Papaya sherbet feminizadas de fastbuds. Vamos al lío, de las 3 plantas, me quede con 2 por espacio, siempre pongo alguna semilla de más por si no abriese alguna por no perder ese hueco del indoor. También se trasplantaron a su maceta definitiva, en este caso de 7 litros, que el mismo trasplante provocó un shock, que también fue solucionado inmediatamente. El ph se controla en 6.2 , la temperatura la tenemos entre 20/22 grados y la humedad ronda el 50%. Las flores empezaron a formarse y progresan a buen ritmo. Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

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.

This week I harvested these two Quebec Black Bud, it was really a great experience. Its unique appearance and these colors charm us from start to finish. Calm in vegetation but surprises us in flowering. I can't wait to see the final product 😇 Harvest : Pheno #1 day 56 flowering 119 total Pheno #2 day 60 flowering 123 total Training : They have received my hand manipulation since day 8 and this every day to force them to grow bigger and stronger until the addition of the scrog. I started my base again on a manifold. For now I'm having fun like that, let's see later 😁 I'll leave you with these beautiful photos and come back to you later. After drying and curing I realize how the color is an intense purple almost black, The genetics are not called Quebec black bud for nothing. the buds are really compact, I know that with the auto pot system I give myself a chance that they will be denser but I believe that hard training leaves its mark.

Week no11? Yes ;-) One more Week...ONLY one more Week.. And you see it?? Do you see the Trichomes?? Do you see how happy she is?? Thats the reason why i dont give Nutrients like anyone write on a paper.. I decide the amount of Nutrients when i look in the morning to my Ladys/Plants... I see how she feels... And what she want and need! So the actually PK mix is around 50-60.... Dont do the same please!! For this you must know what you do...... And i know what i am do... And what she need ;-)
