13/06/25 - Gorilla cookies all sprouted. Little did I know the headache I would have from now on stunting plants and going down the rabbithole of trying to fix everything at the same time instead of taking a step back checking my carbon filter wasnt blocked until 07/08/25 😭

Hallo liebe Freunde des growing💞 Diese Woche haben wir 4 der 6 Pflanzen getoppt. 2 wachsen nicht gut deshalb kein topping bei denen. Gerne eure Gedanken dazu. Alle Infos in den Videos!

Week 12 in the garden, and it's time for some serious plant pampering! The ladies got a trimming fit for royalty, and even a leafy lollipop treat – because who says plants can't enjoy a little sweetness in their lives? With the flipping of the plants just around the corner, it's like the calm before the botanical storm. I can almost hear the plants whispering among themselves, "Get ready, folks, it's about to get real in here!" As I prepare for the flip next week, I can't help but marvel at how far my green companions have come. From tiny seeds to leafy giants, it's been a journey filled with laughter, love, and a whole lot of growth. So, here's to Week 12 – a week of trimming, lollipops, and anticipation for the flip. Stay tuned for more leafy adventures as we enter the next chapter of the garden saga! 🌿🍭

So much Pollen about to fly!! Looks like a few seeds starting to develop Daddy Dust Everywhere!!

Guys i swear it’s like my girls are awakened after a few changes and i love to share with who interested about it. One of them is put something under your fabric pots in outdoor growing to keep your bottom of your pot a little bit wet and don’t worry about water sitting in there because there will be no water after just a few hours. There are 2 other things and i will answer to who ask only! Believe me you want to know about this

This is my first ever grow and i have learned a lot and will forever be learning but one thing I’m going to do is upgrade my lights I made the mistake of going as cheap as possible when I should just shell out the money cause despite this genetic not being a big yeilder I’ve seen someone complain and say they wish they had an xl version when they got a whole oz from their plant I’m guessing I got like 4gs if I’m lucky but it was my mistake you live and you learn, much love❤️

Week 2 flower just did a nice Defoliation ak47 stayed short but oh well other 3 looking good starting to flower nice 7 more weeks to go lol

I basically followed the same steps as last week only different is i didnt top her off. I was going to do a full h20 change at the end of the week but more important things came up when I was about to do it. Plan on doing a full h20 change at the beginning of week 6. Need to find my trellis net a spread her out a lil more. I need to raise the light intensity jus a tad. Also raise the light this upcoming week. So far this has been a decent grow. Hope things continue this trend.

Using advanced nutrients 3/4 strength Switched to general hydroponics full strength on day 40. So this strain is also known as Cookie Monster Auto, and although the flowering times is listed as 55-63 days, the only full grow i can find the guy says it took 90 days and he got a huge yield from one plant. These three girls are prolly going to outgrow this tent, but that's not a bad thing :)

Compost tea turned out well, let it go for 26 hours total and geared it towards fungal. Also took some soil samples several days later around the stalks and found a lot of nematodes and protozoa which is what you want to see. Lots of different types of nematodes so what your looking for are the bacterial feeders (there are charts online that show you how to identify them). Mycorrhizae can be identified by it's dark colour, uniformity and segmented nature. Testate amoebas live in a translucent shell like a snail and are easy to spot but hard to spot moving due to my shitty microscope, but look for the tentacles. Also found some eggs with movement inside, no idea what they are but they have vacuoles and flagella. She is really getting sticky and smelly now; berries with herb notes. You can see the resin stretching over the trichomes in the last pic. No signs of senescence yet so I'm not going to feed them, they should have plenty of food anyway as this is a second run of the same soil.

Looking very healthy and growing fast. Watering her with orgatrex and Bio PK5-8 with every watering as recomended by producer. Day 45 connected on autopot and will be left alone for 7 days. 30ml of orgatrex diluted in 25 lit of water left in water tank. Air pump conected at the bottom of the tank hopefully to prevent fertilizer to sediment and block the system.

Smell is a little bit more than last week

No problems this week. All running smoothly. No changes in feedings. Temps are going up here so I've piped the AC into the tents. I topped all of them mid-week and started LST on all the lil ladies this week.

📓 Cultivation Diary: The 12/12 Flip & Transition Week 📅 June 5, 2026 (Veg Day 17) Irrigation/Reservoir: Prepared a full 100L reservoir refresh. Nutrients: Kept the feeding aggressive with a double dose of vegetative nutrition (x2 Nutrient formula) to ensure the root zones and plant tissues are fully stocked with elements before the transition. Canopy Observation:the canopy is thick, uniform, and fully occupying the table space. The trellis net is officially filled out, and the lower branches are strong and rigid. 📅 June 6, 2026 (Day 1 of Flower / Bloom Week 1) The Flip: Officially switched the timers to a 12/12 photoperiod (Lights ON at 6:00 PM / Lights OFF at 6:00 AM). Schedule: First irrigation shot triggers exactly 1 hour after lights on (7:00 PM), followed by a shot every 1.5 hours. Volume: Configured the drip stakes to run for 1 minute per shot, delivering 5 shots total per day. This provides roughly 450ml per plant per day, creating excellent target dry-backs overnight to force vigorous root searching. 📅 June 11, 2026 (Day 6 of Flower / Bloom Week 1) Irrigation/Reservoir: Bumped reservoir capacity up to 110–120L to keep up with increased transpiration as the plants begin their post-flip stretch. Nutrient Recipe (TargetingpH 6.0 EC 2.5 Water: 110–120L Athena Cleanse: 120ml Silica: 220ml (Essential for stem strength during the stretch) CalMag: 10ml Athena Bloom: 600ml (Adjusting base to target 1.2–1.3 EC from Bloom component) Athena Core: 400ml Irrigation Adjustments: Increased the shot duration slightly to 1 minute and 15 seconds to match the accelerating growth pace. The early flowering stretch has officially begun. The tops are noticeably pushing past the trellis net layers, and the node spacing remains tight and stacked. Leaf color is an excellent dark green with healthy, bright yellow-green shoots driving upward at the growth tips. No signs of stress or stalling from the schedule shift.

End of fight.. for now

Second time flushing it.. I’m also running out of time before harvest I should’ve been flushing it a week earlier.. she’ll be ready in 2 days for chop

good progress

test testing
