Day 50 and a new week... the summer comes back to germany and "Hilde 2.0" goes well 🙏😀 Day 51 ... the summer is back in germany ... sun and heat 😎👍... good for the Buds 😉🙏

Last 10 days for the banana before harvest. Have been flushing for around 5 days now. The Sour D will get its last feeding in a few days before going into flush. Been checking the trichomes rapidly on the Fat banana and they are crystal clear with some of them being milky. I will give it 4 days more before putting it under total darkness for 48 hours.

Girls are doing Great thay have reached the trellis now to fill it all in through the second week then ill let it finish stretching after week 2 is done and floweras are visible on top so far this is my best Grow ever

Scrofulous still filling out. Added superthrive this week.Also went to automated watering. Watering twice a day Q9hrs

This plant has been growing unbelievably well. She has not only grown fast but evenly. I've been doing some pruning of the tiny lower bud sites that won't grow into much and doing some more LST to let more light in.

Easy grow. Special qeen best od Royal Queen seeds. Next year again ..... special qeen 2 1 week to Finish

Tag 77: Seit heute die volle Düngemenge! Nur das Klima ist ein Krimi 😱 wir haben aktuell hier viel Regen, zwischenzeitlich recht warm, also ein ewiges hin und her. Gestern hatte ich dann schon die ersten Trauermücken 😩 Da hab ich nicht lange gefackelt und Entfeuchter in die Grow Boxen gestellt, dafür ist es nun aber mindestens 1°C wärmer in den Boxen. Wenn es draußen nicht zu warm wird könnte es klappen.wenn..... Tag 80: Aktuell haben wir hier ein Subtropischen Klima, ich habe Temperaturen in der Box von bis zu 28°C, Abkühlung in der Nachtphase ist auch nicht mehr möglich. Doch meine Pflanzen stecken es soweit gut weg, sie sehen sogar noch vitaler aus 😍

Loving how these girls are growing Fastbuds mystery #1 finally catching up, and may possibly in the end being a better producer than the RQS plant, which is surprising to me because of how badly I stunted this plant. Got me curious how good this plant could’ve been

En 75 días estuvo lista para cortar A la hora de fumarla tiene unos toques brutales a naranja que te queda el regusto en el paladar durante un buen rato y entra muy suave y fresca

The first plant was only about 9 inches from the top of the pot to her main cola tips, so she yielded like 12 grams 🤣🤣 The second was much more full bud, alot more of it as well. It's a gorgeous plant and it's crazy to see how dark it really is, everyone that sees it is kind of star struck for a second.

Amazing experience with the Mix Pack, I will try it again next summer for sure. Love the variety.

Tag 10 der Blüte Dass ich nochmal leicht entlaubt habe sieht man gar nicht. Ich wollte eigentlich keine weiteren Blätter entfernen bis Tag 21 ..aber es ist einfach zu viel, ..immer noch,...seht selbst 😆

This time it was this girl's turn with a great smell. A very good strain, easy to grow, fast, and without many demands. Besides the controlled environment, it has a sweet citrus scent that makes you want to eat it instead of smoke it, lol. The buds were a good size, very resinous, and sticky. I really liked the result and intend to grow it again ✌️💪🌿🍁

I am not on facebook instagram twitter etc All accounts except this one are fake. Have fun with the update. Flowering day 68 since time change to 12/12 h. Hey everyone ☺️. Today the time has finally come and the last week of flowering has begun 😍. She looks beautiful and her buds smell very tasty 👍. The trichomes are 70% milky and 30% amber. The lady comes in complete darkness for 48 hours before the harvest. Of course, as always, there will be a small interim update of the harvest before the last major update.

1/5/202 6:12 AM Monday they all look so good. I got rid of advanced nutrients completely, and all of my plants have transformed into what they should’ve been the whole time. I either got a bad batch or let’s just face It, advanced nutrients may not be what you think it is. I’ve given them several chances and I’m gonna lower them to a one star product and I’m starting over with the general hydroponics. I’ll never look back. 1/5/26 6:32 AM. I learned this from the Three Stooges this morning. I believe I have Three Stooges syndrome, but that’s not important right now the words of Curly are important🚨🚨🚨🚨 If at first you don’t succeed, keep on sucking till you do succeed!!!!!!🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨 that’s the greatest advice from Curly from the three stooges you’re welcome. 1/7/26 12:47AM my I am failing. If I dont bounce back all the plants are going to go with me. rest a few hours, get the blood off my neck nd back. Maybe take me 1 2 hours medical stasis meditation, and back to Samurai Warrior in no time at all.... 💪💪💪💪💪 1/7/26 1:13AM 🚨 I had an idea!!!!!!!! from Grok:🚨🚨 That’s a brilliant observation and a real win stacking on top of the nutrient switch—fixing the Advanced Nutrients issues (likely lockout, buildup, or imbalance causing inefficiency) has unlocked a cascade of benefits beyond just healthier plants. You’re seeing **increased overall system efficiency** on multiple levels: better nutrient uptake means plants convert light energy more effectively into growth, so they need **less light intensity** to hit the same (or better) results. Dropping wattage by ~10% (or more) while cramming in a few extra plants in the same space is classic optimization—lower power draw, less heat output (easier temp/RH control), reduced cooling needs, and still pushing strong yields. This is exactly how efficient grows scale: when roots/nutes are dialed (your GH powder + aminos + mycos combo is clearly firing), plants photosynthesize more efficiently. They waste less energy on stress recovery and put more into biomass/bud production per photon. Studies and grower reports back this—once nutrient stress is removed, you can often run 10–20% lower PPFD (light intensity) without yield drop, especially in autos where light demands are already moderate. For your setup (assuming Mars Hydro FC 1500-EVO or similar bar LED, currently ~83W at 14 inches for Week 5+ veg): - Autos in veg typically thrive at 400–600 µmol/m²/s PPFD (many aim 450–550 for compact growth without stretch). - In flower, 600–900 µmol/m²/s is common, but autos often peak lower (600–800) since they don’t need the extreme push of photos. - Dropping 10% wattage (e.g., from 83W to ~75W) might shave PPFD by 8–12% depending on dimming curve, but if plants were borderline over-saturated before (common post-nute fix), this could land you in the sweet spot—denser nodes, less tip burn risk, and still hitting 40+ DLI (daily light integral) on your long photoperiod. **Solar-powered angle** makes this even sweeter—your 100% solar setup (panels + batteries/inverter?) already eliminates grid costs, but efficiency gains compound: - Lower wattage = less draw on batteries during cloudy/low-sun periods → longer runtime or less depth of discharge → longer battery life. - Reduced heat = lower fan/AC draw (biggest hidden energy hog in tents) → more headroom for lights/fans without spiking consumption. - More plants in the space = higher yield per kWh/sq ft → better ROI on your solar investment. Tips to push this further (while keeping the miracle growth): - **Measure it**: If you have a PAR meter (or app like Photone), check canopy PPFD before/after the drop—aim to stay in the 450–650 range for late veg/early flower on autos. No meter? Watch plant response: happy dark green leaves, tight nodes, no upward cupping (too intense) or stretch (too low). - **Dim strategically**: Drop 10–15% now (late veg), monitor for a week. If no stretch/pre-flower lag, hold or drop another 5–10% into early flower. Autos are forgiving if nutes are clean. - **Space packing**: With better efficiency, you can tighten spacing slightly (e.g., 12–16” between tops) for more plants, but prioritize airflow—add a small clip fan if needed to prevent pockets of humidity. - **Energy tracking**: Log daily kWh draw (if your inverter/app shows it) before/after changes—celebrate the drop in usage while yields stay up or improve. - **Next level**: If you’re already solar-maxed, consider CO₂ supplementation (bags or low-output generator) in sealed space—plants can use 20–30% more light without stress, but only if nutes/light are perfect (which yours now are). You’re engineering a lean, green, high-output system here—solar-powered, low-energy, nutrient-optimized, and now light-efficient. This is the kind of iterative win that turns hobby grows into optimized ops. How much are you planning to drop wattage initially (e.g., to 70–75W?), and how many extra plants are you thinking of squeezing in? Any pre-flower signs yet on the leaders (Corkscrew, etc.)? Keep documenting—the diary’s gonna show this evolution beautifully. So stoked for you. 🥊🍌👨‍🔬🚨🌞 1/7 2:14PM ❄️🚨❄️⚡️The chills and uncontrollable shaking you’re describing—especially when inflammation-type pain flares up and it gets even a little chilly, feeling like you’re dropping into hypothermia and needing blankets fast to stop the shaking—sound like a pain-triggered autonomic response (sometimes called “pain chills” or rigors in chronic pain contexts). It’s not true hypothermia (your core temp isn’t actually dangerously low), but your body is reacting as if it is, through rapid muscle contractions (shivering) to generate heat. Why This Happens in Chronic Pain/Inflammation Your nervous system (particularly the autonomic part that handles “fight-or-flight” and temperature regulation) can get dysregulated in long-term pain conditions. Severe or widespread pain acts like a massive stressor, spiking adrenaline and sympathetic activity. This can cause: • Vasoconstriction (blood vessels near the skin narrow to conserve heat for core organs), making your skin feel cold even if the room isn’t freezing. • Shivering/rigors as a reflex to raise core temperature—muscles contract rapidly to produce heat, leading to shaking/chattering teeth/goosebumps. • A vicious loop where the pain feels worse in cold (amplifying the sensation), and the cold sensation triggers more shivering.

This week was officially the start of the grow season. 6 fem seeds were popped using the paper towel and ziplock method. Stepdad said to hang them on the wall and the tap roots would grow straight down, and they did. Planted after 72 hours germ, 100% popped. Blackhack had a 1" root. Seeds were planted into soiless mix in solo cups with drainage holes. Lights arrived this week from CHYYYYYNA. Two 240w lm301h quantum boards will light up these 6 girls. Im hoping to steal a bit of extra light from the 4x8 beside me Just waiting now

Very hot and dry. Temp above 100. Humidity 28% Plants did fine but took serious amount of extra water.

04/18/2026 Readings: pH: 6.08 EC: 521 cm TDS: 372 ppm Temp: 66.7° I think I need to drain and fill. The above readings are after I replaced a gallon with one that was only flawless finish. I'm guessing this little lady has a few more days. I'm going to try to dry them at the same time. Or it might make more sense to stagger the drying over time. Like this blue dream first then the apple strudel. I have a feeling she's gonna take a bit of time to flush. Theres one area up top that's starting to show some fade, well maybe not fade. I know it's a deficiency of some kind. And it only started a few days ago. I wonder how fast it will be. I don't remember getting any color from my last run. But we'll see how it goes. I've also dropped the temp for lights out. Now it's set to 65° and should get some color. 04/19/2026 Oops 04/20/2026. HAPPY 420 DAY! Readings: pH: EC: TDS: Temp: Not much going on today. Also, don't know what happened with yesterday's entry. It kinda just went away. Twice. Hopefully today will be fine. Anyway, I'm thinking she has a lot more nitrogen in her system than I originally thought. I'm not seeing any fading or anything. She's just chugging along. I have videos, but I can't upload them. Too big. Anyway, videos are out now. Well, I could send poor quality videos, but that would be counter productive. If I can find another way to add trichome videos, I will post those once a week... Wait, I'm harvesting in like 4 to 5 days. Maybe earlier if she starts fading really fast. Oh and she's also slowed way down on the drinking. I think. I'll find out tomorrow morning really. Actually, she didn't need need any top off. Just had a pH issue. It's really low and tends to swing that way. I'm starting to thing I have a root issue. But I can't tell. I can see one dark spot on the roots that I can't get to. Maybe that's some sort of issue. But that one ends up out of the water almost immediately. With so many roots, it's hard to tell. Can't lift them now. Too big all around. Rotts are too big, plant is too. Ig and well, the tent just isn't taller enough. The environment is like spot on today. A nice 73° and 47% humidity in the tent. But I had to use the AC to dry out the place. It was at 53% in the lung room until I don't know what happened , but the AC obviously worked wonders. It's at 47% in here now and 66° Readings: after pH pH: 5.80 EC: 536 cm TDS: 378 ppm Temp: 67.8° 04/21/2026 Readings: pH: 5.71 EC: 532 cm TDS: 377 ppm Temp: 64.2° No idea what's going on, but nearly all the branches have fallen over. Especially the front and left wall. Not so bad in the back, but like A whole bunch have just fallen over. Some even super cropped themselves. No clues what is going on there. I'm trying to prop them up with other branches. Not working. I might have to harvest. Little early. Well, no, I think she's basically ready. I was thinking a week from Saturday. Maybe earlier now. Maybe it's a good thing. Light is getting to those lower buds now. 04/22/2026 Readings: pH: 4.8 EC: 551 cm TDS: 388 ppm Temp: 66.0° Fixing pH now. pH: 6.1 EC: 591 cm TDS: 420 ppm Temp: 64.0° 04/23/2026 Readings: pH: 5.85 EC: 583 cm TDS: 405 ppm Temp: 68.2° 04/24/2026 Readings: pH: 5.65 EC: 541 cm TDS: 385 ppm Temp: 66.9° I don't think I'm going to pH today. It's in range and I'm certain with the rest of the flush happening it won't matter. I got a couple plant yoyos up. But honestly, it only worked on 2 branches. Everything else is now broken or bent too much. I think I'm gonna harvest tomorrow. I was going to today, but I have a feeling it's still a little too early. So tomorrow it is, or maybe Sunday. All I know is I have branches on top of branches and it's not good. The plant either needs to stand up straight or get to gettin. I'm thinking I accidentally drowned it for a few hours. I read that it can cause bendy branches and feel moist. Or something like that. Either way, it's doing all the things. So I waited a couple days without topping off. It helped I think. I topped it off today with plain pHed water. 8 don't think those branches are going to fix themselves. So harvesting is the key to prevent mold. I know I mentioned it before, but in the back, the branches are all doin the same thing. And just as bad. I gotta check the trichomes. A bud fell off midway down the plant, so I put it under the microscope. Lots of cloudy, a few clear and zero amber. Not done. Why? Easy, they were nowhere near close to the light. I should have lifted her higher. But I didn't. Update: I think I might have to harvest like tonight. Too many branches have fallen and now the Apple Strudel is pushing and leaning against the Blue Dream. Causing even more difficulty with the light. Also, I definitely need to use the trellis net for next run. That's gonna be a special one specifically requested from FastBuds. I was gonna do the LemonPaya, but I'm doing this one instead.
