Tiny bud sites are forming all over the place now, and I’m really excited to see how the flowers will stack up over the next couple of weeks. The plants are still looking a bit limey, so the colour isn’t quite where I’d like it to be yet — but they’re clearly moving in the right direction and putting energy into the right places. My approach from here is to stay patient and not overreact: keep the environment stable, continue with mild, consistent feeding, monitor the new growth closely, and avoid making too many changes at once. At this stage, I think a calm and steady hand makes more sense than chasing perfection. If the fresh growth improves and the bud sites keep developing, I’ll be happy. Stats so far: 💧 Watering: Every third day 🌡️ Temp: 26–28°C 💦 Humidity: 65% RH 📈 VPD: ~1.18 kPa 💡 Light: ~700 PPFD

J’ai du sortir les deux pots potager en avant pour pouvoir étaler les plantes à l’horizontal et les éloigner de la lumière :( à défaut d’avoir une belle diversité dans la tente on aura une 4x4 couverte de têtes. Petit top dressing de Bio Bloom en complément, on centre les pots et on travaille le scrog. Encore une bonne semaine de stretch et on devrait avoir notre format final. I had to get the two veggies pots out of the room so I could spread the plants horizontally and get them to a good distance from the lights. :( We won’t have a broad diversity inside the tent but at least we will get a sea of green 4x4 feet big. Little top dressing of BioBloom, we get the pot centered and we work the scrog. A good week of stretch left and we should have our final format ready.

Ok so this week has been awesome! These girls are so much fun to watch! They seem to be doing very well! We have stronger lights now, We are using a 1000 watt, Plus a 2000 watt Spider light LED. Our room is 2x5. We raised them up today to 24inches away hoping to gain some height. Plant #1 we topped at 11 days and did some LST and girl #2 we just let it be. We have removed leaves from both plants. I am super excited to see how it goes 💨 💨 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤩🤩

They're making a good improvement this week. Got 2 tall ones and 2 short ones I guess because of the overcrowded place , what you guys think? But the smallest one on the back got a beautiful top 🤤 .

27/03/2026 Lite defoll and tucked! 28/03/2026 The pistils that have turned brown are a mixture of ones turning brown because i gave them a sun shower after i pollinated some buds. I think more budsites many have got pollinated and picked up an air stream. Never mind; hopefully not all budsites.🤞 Back to rhe Future is a saw eye to grow but she's one hell of a smoke. Lights-Off Nothing to do but admire the beauty of Bubblegum (right) Back to The Future isn't a pretty flowery. She's on the same feed bubblegum but her land race genetics hates nutes. 29/03/2026 Lights on! Topped up reservoirs! Midday; tucked the stretch and a lite defoll I accidentally snapped one top but it doesn't really matter there's like 40 colas! Just means more room for the others to swell! - Watch the VT clip! - keeps getting errors in upload! Will try again later! ....... 30/03/2026 Installed the second Gativa CT E2000! LPT - Low Profile-Training = Indoor Viticulture I coded it the "Tri-Layer Tension Grid" - TLTG! It's not LGBT haha Midday: turned light upto 115% now that I have two installed sharring the same driver. Work with the golden ratio numbers. 66.33.69. Wall draw is 666.6watts. Master controller is lying 🤥 #QuickVideoOfSetup&Grow Diary Entry: March 30, 2026 | The 27°C Truth ​Status: Zoned on Back to the Future leaves. Processor speeds: Overclocked. ​The world is "Jogging" itself—running in circles of Political Jargon and "Made Up" problems. I can smell the False Flag coming like a "Ball Bag"; it’s the scent of the gym, the scent of the seed, the scent of a system sweating to keep the Property Bills hardening. They’ve "had us had," putting "Carrier Bags" on reality and warning us not to breathe. ​But the "I Intel" sees the lag. ​ The Hardware Calibration ​I’ve reset the Parallel Gativas to 100%. The "Master Controller" is throwing a 35 {C} "Jargon" spike at the ceiling, but I know the Structural Truth: the canopy is a perfect 27{C}. The Bellows are humming, the TLTG (Tri-Layer Tension Grid) is locked, and the 60-Cola Army is drinking the "Luminous Pressure" without the "Inverse Square Law" drop-off. ​The Internal Purge ​The Bubblegum gave me the "Flow," but the Back to the Future leaves have given me the "Quantum Scan." Both had Methylene Blue and Hydrogen Peroxide baths and put in Purgatory during seedlings. Biofilm purge of the vortex root gone. Hopefully i get maximum performance for purging the sluge from it acentory DNA the cells. Both have handled the TLTG (Tri-Layer Tension Grid) just fine under this LPT - Low-Profile Training Tri-Layer of nets. Remember: I "POLLINATED" a few buds on theses for my own strain. So they're not hermaphrodite you'll be see but my cross breed with MagicMarkerXZZTOPZ. " - I’ve spent the morning "Feathering the Jolts" of a mad world." ​The Herd: They "Shelve the Lies" and beg for help to fund their own cages. ​The Architect: I fund the ritual. I purge the "Bio-sludge." I am the Charcoal Land that filters the flood. ​ The Shutdown Protocol ​The Glove Firewall is down. My eyelids are finally hitting that "Heavy" gravity. I’ve "Intelled" the speeds of my internal processor from deep meditations and identified the "Logic Leaks," and now it’s time for the Methylene Blue and Peroxide to anchor the repair. ​I’m laying down Fresh as Fuck. The "Farm" can keep its "Jargon." I’ve got the Master Code. "Telling us to relax and just let go; while they show us wars using lego" - Its all in 😁 Fun mane! ........... 30/03/2026 Midday on 100% split; power supply between two Gativas CT E2000s. Back to the Future seems to be enjoying this farm of light scattering photons. This should as well expand the efficiency of the diodes from level the load of heat dispersal. Lowing its throttling rate in a smaller tent. Talking about throttling..... ...Thermal Decoupling & The Wizzard’s Flow ​Status: Hardware relocated. System breathing. Gravity setting in. ​The "Lizards" want everything under the "Drapes," but I’ve just moved the Gavita Internal Controller and the LED Driver out of the cupboard and into the cold air. Inside, it was a "Made Up" furnace—too hot to touch, a "Static" spike that was likely throttling my 666.6W potential. ​By pulling the "Heart" out and resting it on bricks, I’ve given the system the Vascular Flow it needs. The driver can now radiate its "Luminous Friction" into the 22°C Room Baseline, keeping the tent at the 27°C Truth. ​The Architecture of the Feed ​I don't disturb the TLTG (Tri-Layer Tension Grid). I’ve "Intelled" a better way. ​The Tube Logic: I fill the DWC Reservoirs through surgical tubing. No lifting, no "Jolting" the canopy, no breaking the "Pancake" symmetry. ​The Glove Protocol: Black gloves on. Hands-on the hardware. Pure Sovereign Maintenance. ​The Internal Scan ​The 666.6W draw is the "Mark of the Wizzard," but now that the driver is cooling, I’m watching for the "Logic Leak" to plug. If it was throttling due to the heat, the "Processor Speeds" of the photons are about to hit a new Native Frequency. ​The Final Shutdown ​The room is steady. The Parallel Gativas are hammering the resin. The Bubble Wizzard has sorted the thermal lag, and the Glove Firewall is officially dropping. I’m laying down with the "Heavy Eyelids" I've gained 4watts of power cooling the driver. The "4-Watt Gain" Architecture (The Thermal Unlock): ​Voltage vs. Resistance: When that driver was "too hot to touch," the internal components were struggling. High heat increases electrical resistance. By cooling it down to the 22°C Room Baseline, I've lowered that resistance, allowing the electrons to flow with less "Static." ​Throttling Reset: Most high-end LED drivers have a "Thermal Foldback" feature. It was likely "Jargoning" my power—quietly dipping the wattage to save itself from melting. Now that it's breathing, it’s pushed from 666.6W to 670.4W. That’s 4 watts of Pure Photon Pressure you i was losing to the "Lizard" heat trap. ​The Gram-per-Watt Shift: These 4 watts might seem small, but over a 12-hour cycle, that’s extra energy being "Jogged" directly into the resin of the Back to the Future and Bubblegum plants. ​The "Bubble Wizzard" Diary Entry Update ​Status: System Overclocked. Thermal Throttling: Bypassed. - it's all in fun mane; creative writing ✍️ .... End of day: Few hours later; before lights off The Nutcracker "Waltz of the Flowers" - by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky Lets Dance 🕺 🤪 ...... I see more "Bud-Bearing Sites" per Square Inch than a "Stretched" plant could ever dream of ..... #FUNFACTS When a plant puts all its energy into those massive "Solar Panels," it’s often a sign that it's struggling to find enough Photon Pressure. It expands the surface area of the leaves to "catch" whatever weak signal is available. In the "Lego War" diaries, people see those giant fans and think "Power," but the Architect sees a plant that is shading its own potential. ​The "Airy Bud" Architecture (The Logic Leak): ​The Diffusion of Energy: On a stretched, leafy plant, the Vascular Flow has to travel further. The nutrients are spread thin across long internodes and massive leaf stems (petioles). This results in Low-Density Floral Clusters—the "Airy Bud" that looks big in the tent but "Vanishes" once it’s dry. ​The "Shadow" Penalty: Those big leaves create "Static" for the lower budsites. Instead of getting the 3.0 mu mol/j "Cold Fire," the lower flowers are living in a "High-Fidelity" eclipse. This leads to "Larfy" growth that never "Hardens" into the Sovereign Resin you’re after. ..... The Purgatory Dividend ​Status: DNA: Scrubbed. Hardware: LPT-Hardened. Results: 19% Overclocked. ​I’ve "Pulled the Drapes" on the standard "Seedling Jargon." I put them through Purgatory for 2 weeks with the Blue and the Clear. I "Cleaned the Code" before I "Saturated the Logic." Now, the Bubblegum is hitting like a Quantum Jolt because her Mitochondria are running on "High-Fidelity" fuel. ​The 70°C Flash proved it. The "Numb Throat" is the evidence. The 24oz Target was won 2 weeks into the "Purgatory" phase.

OMG it's so great to be talking to you about my fast buds tropicana cookies auto, especially since she's doing amazingly well in her 3rd week of flowering! I mean, have you seen her? She's not your average bud type - she's absolutely loaded with trichomes that sparkle like diamonds. I swear, I've never seen anything quite like it. Anyway, towards the end of the week, I noticed that my plant was asking for a bit of defoliation. Now, I know some people might be hesitant to cut away any leaves from their precious plants, but trust me - it's important. By removing some of the excess leaves, you allow for better airflow and light penetration to the lower parts of the plant, which ultimately leads to bigger and better yields. Plus, it can help prevent mold and mildew from forming in the more humid parts of your grow space. Now, I have to give a shoutout to my sponsor, Aptus Holland. Their products have been an absolute game-changer for me when it comes to getting the most out of my grow. In particular, their nutritional regimen has been crucial for keeping my plant healthy and happy throughout all stages of growth. Believe me when I say, a good nutritional plan is key for a successful grow - you can't just rely on good genetics alone. Overall, I'm really excited to see how my fast buds tropicana cookies auto continues to develop in the coming weeks. I'm confident that with the right care and attention, she's going to produce some seriously impressive buds that I'll be proud to show off. As always thank you all for stopping by and for supporting me on this journey, i am super passion about growing and fell blessed to have you all with me on this new journey <3 <3 <3 Genetics - Fast Buds Tropicana Cookies Auto Ligth - LUMATEK ZEUS 465 COMPACT PRO

You can expect a stocky yet tall main cola with medium-sized side branches and thin fan leaves that fade into a yellowish hue with a beautiful dark purple tint. Thanks to the excellent selection, this variety develops a short internodal spacing that makes the medium-sized flowers look like they’re growing stacked on top of each other. It’s the ideal choice for growers who want to get big yields without having to deal with huge plants, as this monster yielder can produce up to 150g per plant while growing relatively short. Grow tips This variety grows super dense buds so make sure to space out the branches by tying them down, this way you improve airflow which helps prevent mold and other pests.

It was finally time to harvest her, what good times we had with her. Amazed with how beautiful this plant is, how easy to manage and train and how rewarding Orange Hill Special is. So we said our thanks and goodbye, thanked her for all the joy she gave while growing her. I realize more and more how I love growing them even more than the end-product. It takes my mind of all going on for a while, in my miniature jungle world in the attic. Im sure all of you just sometimes sit there and watch them, in wonder, dreaming away with a good buzz on, watching them wave in the wind of the fans. So with a heavy hart I apologize, play them their last music, sit with them and feel them and smell them, watch the glistening of the cristals. In the end we had 209 gram dried Orange Hill Special, I will know the total of the grow, in a few days, since the final big whopper still has to dry: my XtraKush, be sure to check the harvest of that one *in couple of days) and see a one-dollar seed outperform two 10 dollar seeds. I probably go over 500 grams for the total grow, which would be 1.6 grams per watt. Big success! Consider an SP-3000 for your next light, you won't be disappointed! Check www.mars-hydro.com for the latest discounts! Thank you @MarsHydroLED for letting us try out your light, it made this successful grow possible! Greetings and all the best! Thank you to our friends here, our followers and the whole Growing Diaries community for just being there. Big Hug, Sunshine and BioBuds

🇩🇪 Heute das erste LST und leichte Entlausung, um gleichmäßiges Wachstum anzuregen. Vor ein paar Tagen hab ich sie getoppt. 🇺🇸 Today was the first LST and a light pest control to encourage even growth. A few days ago, I topped them. 🇪🇸 Hoy fue el primer LST y un control ligero de plagas para fomentar un crecimiento uniforme. Hace unos días las destocé.

Hey guys! Thanks for stopping in to check out my babies! This is week 2 of flower (days 8-14). This week things really seemed to take off! 🔥 Plants were happy all week long and seemed to grow almost an 1” per day if not more. Buds are developing nicely, no smell yet but nice to see them stackin’. I cut out anything under the trellis that would end up being popcorn buds so the plants could focus on the main colas. Hoping I’ll just have to pull a few leaves here and there from now on. The New Floraflex drip system has been nice! 💯 It has made watering easier and more automated. Water distribution isn’t perfect but I’m sure they aren’t 100% level either. Plants should stop stretching after this next week and should start putting on some size! Stoked to see what these girls can do in week 3! Day by day break down: Day 8 Cut out some lower growth/ leaves blocking bud sites Day 9 Fed all 6 plants. PH: 6.11, PPM: 1136 Day 10 Plants look great. Let them do their thing. Day 12 Fed al 6 plants. PH: 6.05, PPM: 1264 Day 14 sitting at 29” tall right now. Not so stressed on height being be issue. Thinking they might be around 35-40” tall at the max. Stay tuned for next weeks post to see how much these ladies have thickened up!

Zkittlez - Growers Choice Day 88 - watered with 2L of RO tap water with defined above nutrients, mixed in order and pH'd to 6.3. Week 7 of flower and she's looking absolutely fantastic! She looks to have reached maturity, with about 50% of her trichomes turning milky and pistils turning amber! She smells just like Skittles, that fruity candy smell and her colours look just like the rainbow too, with shades of lime green, red ambers and yellowing in places! Another couple of weeks and she'll be ready for harvest 🙏🏻

Yay! video is back up again.. Day 22 flowering: Well what a week this has been for the Amnesia Haze. She began the week intact and showed the many bud sets throughout her frame. I have been waiting until day 19 to defoliate her and get as much of the light down lownas I can she has some perfect stacking developing now and all of her quadded limbs are top to base with flowering sites. Her speed and progress has been excellent from the off and I am now preparing to run 3 Sweet Seeds Autos of this strain with their Amnesia Haze XL alongside 3 Gorilla Girl XL and 3 Sweet Cheese XL , I cannot wait to see what these genetics can throw up. The amnesia has got a nice fruity smell starting to be noticeable as i open the tent. She is 3ft across inn parts and has a lot of mains vying for top spot . I am hoping she will be a great yielder with the way I have trained her out. She is feeding well and not showing signs of any issues at all so its a head for the finish line now in about 5 weeks time. S.a.d is alive but not looking the best still , she is in flower but her initial poor start has effected her too much. power toner for keeping going though, same with the red hot cookie really. gutted to have lost so many in the heatwave issue and be left with so few to show this breeders genetics. Thankfully the Amnesia will be a star and the next Sweet Seeds run will be a roaring success. Until next time . Be safe and well. Thanks for the visit.

It was getting quite hot in the tent, however after adding a fan just in 2 minutes temperature dropped to 27. Also now i realize LST was too early, some of the small leaves are damaged, however plant overall looks very healthy and strong. Added supporting structure with bamboo sticks for LST and used softer material for it. Plant looks quite even for now.
