🌸 Week 4 Flower Report: Growth, Challenges & Big Changes! 🌸 Hey, Grow Diaries Fam! ✨ We’re here at Week 4 of Flower, and what a week it’s been—packed with challenges, adjustments, and exciting progress! Before diving into the details, let’s start with a note on my flowering timeline. While this is Week 4, I don’t start counting flower days the moment I flip to 12/12. Instead, I wait for the plants to show true signs of bloom. It’s a small but significant distinction that keeps things accurate and aligned with the plants’ development. 🌱 Defoliation: Timing is Everything! Defoliation is a critical part of the flowering stage, and I typically wait until Day 21. However, this week, I tackled it earlier on Day 17 because: 1️⃣ The room was simply too full. 2️⃣ And most importantly—the Papaya Zoap had other plans! She’s a fighter—determined, defiant, and constantly reaching for the moon. Despite intense training like super cropping, she’s still pushing upward, nearly outpacing the LED lights. Challenges like this remind us of a simple truth: gardening mirrors life. It’s about resilience, adaptation, and unwavering determination. 💪 This week, I added a second SCROG layer. While this net will support the flowering colas, it’s also there to strategically manage the Papaya Zoap. Why? Because experience has taught me that if she grows out of the LED’s range, she won’t finish properly—and that could disrupt the balance for every other plant in the tent. It’s all about teamwork, even in the garden. 🌟 Defoliation was intense, removing nearly all the leaves with stems to clear space and boost airflow. The tent now looks dramatically different! For the full before-and-after transformation, be sure to check out my YouTube channel—trust me, you’ll want to see this process up close! 🎥✨ Switching to Aptus Holland Minerals A major milestone this week: I’ve transitioned entirely to Aptus Holland Minerals. 🌊 From now on, it’s just minerals—no more organic inputs. This marks the start of a new chapter, and I’m incredibly curious to see how the plants react to these changes. Here’s the current nutrient mix: • System Clean: 0.5 ml/L • Regulator: 0.15 ml/L • RO Water Conditioner: 0.8 ml/L • All-in-One Liquid: 2.1 ml/L I’m keeping the pH at 6.1 and TDS at 556 ppm, and so far, the plants are thriving. This week also included a thorough system clean, ensuring everything runs smoothly as we enter the final flowering stages. 🌿 Bud Development: Pure Magic! The bud formation across all the genetics is nothing short of incredible. Every plant is thriving, and the canopy is lush, vibrant, and full of potential. I’ve raised the PPFD to 750 for this stage, with temps steady at 25°C and RH at 63%—keeping the VPD dialed in at 1.11. The TrolMaster ecosystem, paired with the AutoPots, makes managing these precise conditions seamless. With more time to focus on the plants, I can give them the daily care they deserve. 💚 Shoutouts & Gratitude A huge thank you to my sponsors and supporters: TrolMaster, Aptus Holland, Pro-Mix, Cannakan, and the amazing seed banks. Your incredible products and technology make this journey possible. 🌟 To the Grow Diaries community and all my followers—thank you for your energy, love, and even the challenges from the haters. It all fuels this incredible process, and I apprecilove every bit of it. Special shoutout to Brother Daggadna—check him out on Instagram and show some love! 💚 The plants are heading into the next phase of bloom, and I can’t wait to share how this story unfolds. 🌸✨ As always, stay tuned, stay positive, and let’s keep growing strong together! 🙌 Growers’ love to all 💚 #TrolMaster #AptusHolland #GrowLife #CannabisCommunity #FlowerWeek4 #NeverGiveUp #GrowWithLove #IndoorHorticulture #Defoliation #PPFD #ControlledEnvironment #SCROGNet #DogDoctorOfficial Discount Codes so you can save big on your next check out 💚💚💚 Kannabia - DOGDOCTOR 30% off SeedsmanSeeds - DOGDOCTOR 10% off CannaKan- DOGDOCTOR 15% off terpyz.eu - DOCTOR 15% off The Neutralizer - PORKIT5-DOG 15% off As always thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all , this journey of mine wold just not be the same without you guys, the love and support is very much appreciated and i fell honored and so joyful with you all in my life 🙏

Unlike traditional LED systems that project light in a single direction, the ICL-300’s 300-degree design ensures even light distribution beneath the canopy. 🌟 This unique feature means that no part of your plant is left in shadow, creating a balanced environment for lower buds to thrive. Key Tech Specs & Benefits: • 300-Degree Light Distribution: This design fills the under-canopy space with optimal light, enhancing photosynthesis where it often gets neglected. 🌱 • Full Spectrum Output: Tailored to meet the specific needs of plants at every stage, ensuring quality growth from base to apex. • Energy Efficiency: Advanced LED technology delivers maximum output with minimal energy usage, keeping costs down and sustainability up. 💡 • Durability & Heat Management: Built with high-quality materials, the ICL-300 stays cool and reliable, even in intense growing environments. Why It Matters: Under-canopy lighting is a game-changer for growers aiming to maximize yield and quality. Typically, lower buds receive less light, resulting in larfy or underdeveloped flowers. The ICL-300 changes that dynamic entirely by turning shadows into opportunity. 🌟 With light evenly dispersed across the entire plant, you’re not just growing; you’re sculpting a masterpiece. For me, the ICL-300 is more than a tool—it’s a partner in innovation. It ensures that every plant in my grow room has equal opportunity to shine, from the top colas to the smallest buds at the base. When paired with a carefully managed ecosystem, like the one powered by TrolMaster, the potential for consistent, top-quality harvests reaches new heights. This isn’t just about adding light—it’s about adding value, efficiency, and balance to the grow process. I’m beyond excited to see how the ICL-300 transforms the game in my tent, and I can’t wait to share the results with you all! 💚

Sexta semana de floración (Movilización de Nitratos - Adición de Mo) Momento crítico: Integramos 0.5 ppm de Molibdeno. En esta etapa, el Mo activa la función de la nitrato reductasa para catalizar la conversión de los nitratos acumulados en las vacuolas hacia la síntesis de aminoácidos y proteínas. Buscamos limpiar el tejido de sales nitrogenadas residuales, redirigiendo toda esa energía química hacia la densidad final de la flor

Looks super frosty and her resin is super sticky hate when they say you can't get the best quality organically. It's the same way around. Purest aromas,finest flavors,love to grow with nature and love this genetic by original sensible seeds 🤤🔝💎🍪

Todo marcha como corresponde, esta vez se regó con Flawless Finish para que las plantas se alimenten de los últimos nutrientes y ya secando el sustrato comenzamos la cosecha. Próxima semana finaliza el cultivo. El aroma que mantienen estas nenas me ha dejado encantada!! 😍

Day 39 to 46 of flower Basically the girls are on autopilot, with the autopots and Gaia green there really isn't much to do, both methods are super user friendly and the basic needs that need to be meet are just ph water in the reservoir every couple days and then watch them stack buds on top of buds...Occasionally I move a branch over to another square in the net to make room but Basically after the last top feeding it's just watch and weight, pun intended....

This a cutting from the same line of Gelato Cake. Its in its 2nd week, and has been pollinated in 3 places with Gelato cake, dosi punch and an unnamed Sativa so expecting seeds.by abundance

First time grower, criticism will be well recieved😀 Two plant ebb and flow setup in a 3x3 as a test run Top feeding until I can afford the rest of my setup🙄 Started seed in water balanced to 6.0 Sat. Feb. 29th Tap roots within 12 hours, directly into pre soaked rockwool cubes. Broke the surface march 3rd. Began 1/4 strength micro, grow, bloom and stress relief Using very hard water for the next couple days, roughly 450 PM out of the tap. Ro system to be installed march 6th Ro system now installed. Start of week 1 will be Saturday the 7th of March. Day 2: Turned the light down to roughly 50%, instead of raising it, due to the fear of light burn. Will look into it soon. Plants seem to have recovered after I decreased the light intensity. Fan and filter purchased. Alternating flush and feed cycles 12 hours apart to keep salt sats down. Day 3: Bumped light intensity back up to roughly 75% of the ts1000's capability or 700 "light units" from a cheapy 3way meter. Adding as much co2 as I can through baking soda and dilute phosphoric acid. Day 4: Exhaust fan with climate control installed March 10th Day 5: Girls exploded now that I have my salt build up figured out . Day 6: Light back up to 100% Day 7:little droopy on the one plant, gonna let them dry out a day Setup should be complete for start of week 2.(actually sick right now and having trouble getting supplies) Still need a flood table setup.

😱😱😱 mostruosa questa runtz,ecco che mostra i segni di pre fioritura è sono sbalordito. Continua a crescere a vista d'occhio. Piena di siti di gemme che presto saranno ben visibili e come voi, li attendo follemente. Non so come sarà appena ci sarà il boom durante la fase di fioritura.. Ma sono sicuro che sarà mostruosa 🤤💣💚

Very straight forward week in terms of progress. All the secondary lines of the Dominican Republic strain were trimmed, and the plants were foliar fed for the first three days. As an additional note I switched to red and blue light to prepare them for flower.

Well here it is harvest day 😁 some nice purple on the top buds , smell is very fragrant! Buds are a nice size for such low wattage leds. Quite frosty nothing spectacular but frosty all the same, I will update once all dry with weight and smoke report. 🙏 blessing you all good days.

🌱 Week 6 Veg Report: Terpyz Mutant Croco Adventure 🌱 Hey, Grow Fam! It’s week 6 in our Terpyz Mutant Mentha de Croco veg journey, and what a ride it’s been! These mutants are taking their sweet time growing, but with each passing day, I’m falling more in love with their quirky, unique beauty. Every plant is a masterpiece of nature—peculiar and stunning in its own way. 💚 Growth Highlights: The slow and steady growth continues to reflect their resilience. These Croco beauties are thriving despite cooler temperatures this week—daytime temps sitting around 18°C and dropping to 14°C at night, paired with 65% RH. They’re proving to be tough little warriors, adapting to the environment like champs! Even though their growth is slower than usual, the details in their leaves are breathtaking. Each plant has its own story to tell, and I’m loving the diversity in structure, color, and patterns. It’s like watching art unfold in slow motion. 🎨 Nutrition Update: This week, I’ve kept feeding consistent with Aptus Holland nutrients—but remember, we phased out the liquid All-in-One formula since the All-in-One Pellets provide everything they need for now. Here’s the mix for this week: • Regulator: 0.15 ml/L – Building resilience and helping them adapt to the colder temps. • Start Booster: 0.25 ml/L – Encouraging root health and giving them a gentle push forward. • CalMag Boost: 0.25 ml/L – Supporting robust leaf growth and preventing deficiencies in these chilly conditions. The pellets are doing a fantastic job of slowly releasing nutrients, ensuring that the plants get a steady supply without any risk of overfeeding. Aptus Holland’s organic-mineral blend continues to impress me with its balance and efficiency. Truly a grower’s best friend! Decisions Pending: Flip or Clone? I’m still holding off on flipping to flower or taking clones. With their slow growth, I want to give them all the time they need to reach a size where I can confidently determine sex. Whether I decide to flip for a week and revert, or take clones for sexing, will depend on how they progress in the next couple of weeks. It’s a reminder to embrace patience in growing. Every strain, every phenotype, every plant teaches us something unique about nurturing life. 🌿 The Beauty of Photography: This week, I brought out my trusty Sony A6000 and Nikon DSLR to capture the intricate details of these plants. From the mesmerizing leaf patterns to water droplets reflecting their surroundings, these frames truly showcase their unique personalities. Why Cameras Over Phones? • Lens Power: Swapping out lenses allows me to get super close for those macro shots, capturing details that even the best phones can’t touch. • Dynamic Range: Cameras handle light and shadow better, making every photo a true work of art. • Depth of Field: Blurring the background helps highlight each plant’s unique features. Sure, phone cameras are convenient, but nothing beats the joy of immortalizing these beauties with the precision and creativity of a good DSLR or mirrorless camera. 📸 Shoutouts & Love: Massive thanks to Terpyz Mutant Genetics for these fascinating seeds, Aptus Holland for keeping the nutrition game strong, Pro-Mix Soil for the rich growing medium, and Future of Grow for providing stellar lighting! A big shoutout to TrolMaster for making environmental control a breeze, and to Grow Diaries for being such an incredible platform to share this journey. Last but not least, a heartfelt thank you to the entire community—followers, supporters, and even the curious passersby. Your love, questions, and feedback fuel this adventure! Final Thoughts: This week has been all about patience, adaptation, and marveling at the uniqueness of nature. Each plant is a little piece of art, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to nurture and share their journey.

Week 3 flowering. Buds are slowly forming, plants still going good, cold weather is hitting my area now, hope it won't last long, might extend flowering period by a couple days if it stays this cold.
