WEEK 14 - HARVEST: The Grand Finale ​🌼 FLOWERING PROGRESS The journey of the Monster Maker has come to its successful end. After 9 full weeks of flowering, she reached her absolute peak. The final days showed a stunning purple fade, and the bud density became rock-solid. As seen in the final photos, the structure was perfect, and every site was loaded with high-quality flower. It was time to chop! ​👃 TERPENES & AROMA Even during the harvest process, the scent was overwhelming. The sweet, citrusy tangerine notes have merged with a heavy, spicy, and earthy funk. It smells like a premium dessert with a gassy twist. I expect the terpene profile to become even more refined during the slow dry. ​🌡️ ENVIRONMENT & VPD Final conditions in the tent were kept at 24.8°C and 46% RH (VPD ~1.65 kPa) right until the end. Now, for the drying phase, I have adjusted the environment to aim for a slow, 10-14 day dry to preserve those precious tangerine terpenes. ​💧 NUTRIENT FEEDING & WATERING The 7-day flush with pure, pH-regulated water was completed perfectly. The plant looked beautifully "starved" and clean, which should result in a very smooth smoke and pure white ash. No more nutrients, just the natural essence of the plant. ​💭 GROWER'S NOTE HARVEST DAY! Seeing this lady without her leaves (the "naked" structure) really shows the success of the LST and training. Every branch held a massive, frosty treasure. Now the real patience begins with the drying and curing process. I am beyond happy with the resin production on this Sweet Seeds masterpiece. Stay tuned for the final weight and smoke report!

This plant i ripped out with roots and hung it up with them. Drying 1 week in 15-19°C and 50% humidity. Cured for 1 week and then trimmed carefully. Nice BIG smelly and tasty buds came out of this beauty. Sweet smoke with berry/flowery taste and relaxing effect. I was expecting more like indica effect but nevermind. Good for stoning at home with nearest. She has also calming effect after crazy/angry day.

This is another strain that is going full force and in both technical/free versions, we are talking about the Zookies Automatic by Zamnesia. Remember that we are growing a plant worked with the techniques indicated and another left to grow without pruning to preserve its speed; in the previous/next diary you will find the other plant of the same variety. In this diary we find a plant worked with a precise and punctual Main Lining: We have a topping at the third internode, an accompaniment of the growing branches towards the third internode and then toppiong again, everything lowered well with our metal arches. I saw the side branches go very high and I topped again to have more branches at the end, everything very clean underneath. Comparison is the salt of the experience, so the plant in the other diary will be treated very differently, go and see it to make a comparison. We started the Plagron fertilization program, we are in 100% organic configuration, the soil is made up of recycled Promix + 1/3 fresh soil + 10% Perlite + RQS Mycorrhizae Mix (4 g in the mix, 1 g under the small fiber pot). In the middle of the week the pre-flowering started so I decided to start the program for this phase: 1 ml/l of Power Roots - 1 ml/l of Pure Zym - 1 ml/l of Sugar Royal - 1 ml/l of Power Buds - 4 ml/l of Alga Bloom Remember the Green Sensation from the 3rd/4th week of flowering depending on the flowering speed or how you see the calyxes composing, when the calyx is in the swelling phase it is used. We sprayed 5 ml/l of Vita Race foliar fertilizer once a week. ------------------------------------------------- https://plagron.com/it We always have the excellent RQS mycorrhizae running through the soil. https://www.zamnesia.io/it/5778-mix-micorrhiza-easy-roots.html Is a top strain of the last few years very high level of thc ---- https://www.zamnesia.io/it/11174-zamnesia-seeds-zookies-auto.html Brief description of Zamnesia // The result of the cross between Animal Cookies, GG#4 and ruderalis, this compact variety produces top quality buds, maintaining all the charm of a modern US hybrid. Thanks to the hard work of the Zamnesia genetics team, Zookies Automatic is easy to grow, fast flowering and exceptionally vigorous. Regardless of whether you grow indoors, outdoors or in a greenhouse, if you are looking for a stable autoflowering strain that is quick to harvest, Zookies Automatic is definitely the one for you. Like all Zamnesia autoflowers, Zookies Auto promises rapid harvests of top-quality bud with minimal effort. And she delivers on that promise. After germination, Zookies Automatic plants grow vigorously for around 3–4 weeks. At the end of the pre-flowering phase, plants typically reach a height of between 90–110cm, depending on the size of the pot. The whole world of cultivation and much more is on Zamnesia: just take a look at the site and you will find "all the best that nature has to offer" in various shapes and colors. --------------- www.zamnesia.com

Plant is growing well. Transplanted them from a 1 gallon pot into a 3 gallon pot this week.

Just water every 3-4 days

Been growing for a while but I need to keep track of things better. One plant has some browning leaves so I’ll research that this week. Week 6 They’re doing well for the most part. Pistols coming in. They love high ppm and drink plenty.

HulkBerry placed 2 days in dark * Check the trichomes for amber * After first amber trichomes switch off the lights, leave it in the dark for 2 days * Watering 2l every 3 days * Always tuck in the leaves to expose lower tops

Plants reacted well to LST saw some awesome growth. They are branching out well, expecting flowering to start in the next 2 weeks. Haven’t defoliated yet trying to let em grow as much is they can without stressing her out too much

Hello folks wonderful news it's getting a little more fragrant in the tent there.. Decided to add some pics of the other plants.. Anyway all is well. A bit of ph damage again just being lazy and was a busy week but we all made it through relatively unscathed and everybody is happy.. 4 weeks.. I can't wait for this harvest.. Long time these plants have been kicking around and here we are.. Getting to the home stretch.. Bulking and all that jazz.. Very pleased.. Very happy with the lights, they are almost too powerful. . Gonna try some other lights next grow... I like to light up my life!.

SUNDAY 4/28: I plucked off some dead leaves and did some leaf-tucking. All 4 CC's are looking good and the big one is really starting to bud up now.👍 Daytime temps are still hovering around 87-90f, but I've got them sitting in 70-72f temps for 6 hours of darkness now.😁 I did a little video today and I'll take a few "glamour shots" tomorrow. MONDAY: Today I see a bunch of crispy leaves on one of the smaller ones..guess I phuktup the PH again because they are getting fed everything they need. I douched everybody with 1/3 gallon including some boomerang, calimag, bembe, bud candy, and terpinator. No time for glamour shots... TUESDAY: Not much time for gardening today..changed out carbon filters and cleaned out the evap cooler basins. WEDNESDAY: I took some photos after doing a little training on a few of them. I have some sort of contagion in the big tent..leaves suddenly getting brown and crispy overnight on a few plants. THURSDAY: The 'contagion' seems to be spreading through the garden... I'm thinking maybe I completely PHuktup the ph when I added silica last time and didn't correct it?? Not sure...but it's sad..they're all gonna be less than photogenic for the finish...😟 FRIDAY: I plucked some dead leaves and misted everybody with perfectly PH adjusted spring water and increased airflow in the tent. Also decreased the dehumidifier to 45% RH. So far, the biggest one is the least affected. SATURDAY: I fed them all today and started the big one on Cha Ching.

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.

10.06.2023 RACCOLTO_RED HOT COOKIES Sweet Seeds 🌱 142 giorni dal seme 🌼 70 giorni fioritura ⚖️ 2895 grammi non secchi totale di 4 piante Tutto è andato per il meglio in questa corsa. Le 4 piante di Red hot cookies si sono dimostrate veramente forti. Colori stupendi a fine fioritura, non rossi come speravo, profumo di terra, dolcezza e aspro mescolati con note di gas, un profilo terpenico molto interessante. Lo scrog effettuato da me, non credo abbia dato il massimo potenziale di queste piante, con il tempo migliorerò anche questo aspetto, ma spero di stare su 1 hg a pianta di media. Aggiornamento a breve con peso a secco, foto dei fiori ripuliti e rapporto sulla potenza di questa varietà. Ringrazio tutti quelli che sono passati a vedere il mio diario, a tutti i like i commenti e ai consigli.. un grande love a tutta la community di growdiaries 💚🙏

Overall, the Bling strain grew very weird initially, however, it did suffer some trauma and grew 3-point leaves for awhile. Resistance to PM was not good, but was able to keep it at bay until harvest time by daily spraying of Athena Mildew Control. I prefer to use this as I was using H2O2 and it burned leaves because of the pH change. My other harvested plant, Mimosa did not do as good from that spraying, but more on her in my other post. Getting back to Bling - I felt the buds thickened up nicely in the end, with hues of purple calyxes coming out as well as with some leaves. Smells wonderful and looking forward to smoking some after the cure. More to follow...

Week 3 Veg Update, (Please see the following) Both Plants ( Seedsman -Critical +2.0 - Blimburn (Applefritter) Thus far both plants are coming along nicely WIll be using Bud clip bender this week to utilize PPF light usage. *Mid-Week Update* Introduced CaliMagic this week LST and Bud clipped Light Defoliation Introduced Element Nutrient (Flower Fuel) 1 week until early Flower. *End of week recap* 08/21 Light Defoliation Bud Clip tie down Thus far all is running smoothly, No changes from above.

Hi Everybody, the plant is developing super nice and is getting really thirsty. My tank has 50 litres and after 6 days I had to change the solution as only 10l were left and I started to see tiny sings of tip burn. Meaning she is consuming somewhere around 6.6l a day minus evaporation. The lower canopy was cleared out quite a bit and then a second S.C.R.O.G. net was installed to spread the canopy a little further. She stretched quite a bit since I flipped her withe main colas starting to tower on the sides.

Wee areee coming!!

One has turned black in coulor while the other is still green both letting off nice berry flavours there building up thc nicely there the biggest in the tent
