Week 10 From Seed | Week 6 Flower 🌸 Quick Recap — How We Got Here 12/12 from seed, no wasted time—just a straight path into expression. From early on, these girls showed intention. Strong structure, steady vertical growth, and a clean transition into flower without hesitation. We kept the environment stable and let them lead: • Temperatures around 26°C • Humidity steady at 60% • Balanced feeding, building up gradually No forcing. No overworking. Just guiding and observing. And now… here we are. ⸻ Current State — Week 6 Flower This is where things get real. The room is alive right now: • EC: 2.0 • pH: 6.5 • CO₂: ~1000 ppm They’re drinking around 2L per day in 14.5L soil, which says everything about their metabolism and comfort. Structure is holding beautifully— Stacking tight, forming dense flowers, and starting to push real frost. The smell? Strong already. The kind that tells you something serious is building. Everything feels aligned: Healthy leaves, active uptake, no hesitation in development. This is the phase where the plant shows you what it’s truly capable of. ⸻ Observations • Buds are thickening daily • Resin production is clearly ramping up • Strong terpene expression already present • Plants are fully in sync with the environment • Water uptake confirms high metabolic activity They’re not just growing… they’re performing. ⸻ Looking Ahead — Week 7 Next week is where things usually shift from “building” to “refining.” Expect: • Increased density in the flowers • Noticeable swelling across all sites • Frost development accelerating • Terpenes becoming louder and more complex This is where patience matters. Stay consistent, don’t chase—just support what’s already happening. ⸻ Gratitude 🤝 Big thank you to everyone involved in this run: • The genetics — for the blueprint and expression • The gear — LEDs, tents, airflow, all the silent workers behind the scenes • The sponsors — for the support and trust • The GrowDiaries community — To the OGs, the long-time supporters, the new followers joining the journey… To the ones who show love, and even the ones who question—respect to all of you. This space grows because of all sides. And of course—GrowDiaries itself, for giving us a place to share, learn, and evolve together. ⸻ Week 6 flower. Fully in motion. Let’s see where they take us next.

With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

The garden has officially shifted gears! This week, the "stretch" finally kicked in, and we are seeing the very first pompons (pistils) appearing on all the plants. To support this massive transition, I finally got around to making my WCA to provide the calcium boost needed for these new flower sites. The Game Plan The Stretch is Real: Both plants have jumped in height this week. The Super Boof (grey pot) is stretching with a lot of vigor, while the Strawberry Banana (brown pot) is filling out into a beautiful, wide bush. WCA Production: I spent time roasting eggshells and infusing them in vinegar to create my Water-Soluble Calcium. This is the perfect timing because the plants need calcium right now to build strong cell walls for the developing buds. LST Refinement: I’m continuing to adjust the ties. Now that the stretch is happening, I’m guiding the new growth to maintain an even canopy across the entire garden. The First Flowers: Seeing those white hairs (pistils) popping out everywhere! It’s the official start of the flowering journey. Grower’s Note: The synergy between the Biochar in the soil and the new WCA is going to be huge. The plants look "hungry" for minerals right now, so the timing of this KNF input couldn't be better. KNF Recipe: Water-Soluble Calcium (WCA) (Adding this to my journal for anyone following the KNF path) How I made it: Roasting: I took clean eggshells and roasted them in a pan until they turned a nice toasted brown. This "unlocks" the calcium. The Reaction: I put the shells in a jar and added brown rice vinegar (1:10 ratio). The fizzing was intense—that’s the calcium being extracted by the acid! Fermentation: I’ll let this sit for about 7 to 10 days until the bubbling stops and it's ready to use.

21.10.25 (Tag 44): - Wasserreservoir auf 30l aufgefüllt - Wasserzulauf gestoppt, für nächste Düngung - Abstand zur Lampe auf 30 cm korrigiert. Durch Scrog Netz sollte nun eigentlich keine Anpassung mehr notwendig sein 22.10.25 (Tag 45): - AuqaPot ist leer - Nach BioTabs Schema gedüngt: 1g Bactrex, 20ml Orgatrex in 1L Wasser - ca. 500 ml in AquaPot geleert - Installation WiFi im Grow Raum. Ab jetzt Nutzung meines Temperatur und Hydrometers das die Daten aufzeichnet, Alarme bei Unter-/Überschreitung Temperatur/Luftfeuchtigkeit erlaubt. 23.10.25 (Tag 46): - 18:33: AquaPot ist leer, Rest der Düngelösung in AquaPot geleert - Sensor des Spider Heizlüfters und Temperatur/Hydro Messgerät auf Höhe Pflanze installiert - Spider Heizlüfter erneut konfiguriert - Bedienung ist recht umständlich, habe jetzt im Handbuch erneut nachgelesen. Man muss wenn man den Tag/Nachtmodus aktiviert das Setting 3 Sekunden stehen lassen um es zu aktivieren. Nun sieht man gut Anhang des Temperatur Messgeräts das die Temperatur wie gewünscht gehalten wird. Tagsüber 24 Grad, Nachts 19 Grad. Ist nun auch notwendig, da es nur noch ca. 15 Grad im Keller hat 24.10.25 (Tag 47) - 18:11 Düngelösung aufgebraucht, Wasserzulauf wieder aktiviert

Now for Wk8, even after all that DEFOLIATION and LST on Wk7 it don't look like it all. It took me 3 hours, to do all that work. I wanted to wait at least 2 weeks before another around of defoliation and lst but now it's every week 😪. Do I DARE say the other 2 plants are catching up to Garganchula? I will say I had 1 big 1 medium and 1 small. Now I got 1 large and 2 medium plants. I want 1 more month of VEG, to allow the other 2 plants to catch up but I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to slow down Garganchula (big plant name). Let's see if WK9 Garganchula play nice and grow SLOWLY and allow her other siblings (didn't name them yet) to catch up. Garganchula 1300ppms 2 other plants 1700ppms each

seeds: Montel Iced Tea, Body Count, Bubbles Blueberry F4, Ricky’s Hash Plant, Black Tangi Tea → standouts / "otherworldly" These are clearly your current stars — better structure, resin, and overall quality than most of the others you've tried. Auto Flowers: Humboldt Seed Company — best autos you've grown. Extremely resinous, especially the OG Triploid. Top tier for autos. Fast Buds — very close second. Super fast, nice flavors, reliable. You like them a lot but note they're in a different class (not fair to directly compare to Humboldt). Why RQS Strains Underperformed The 7/10 rating and "needed a lot of power to switch to flower" comment is classic for some RQS genetics, especially certain autos or hybrids. Possible reasons: Genetics: Some RQS lines are finicky about light schedules or have slower/more reluctant flowering responses. Mike Tyson 2.0 and Corkscrew apparently needed the 12/12 flip to finally push. Light/Environment: With five tents running, light penetration, spectrum, or intensity might not have been ideal for these particular strains. Autos can be sensitive to stress during the transition. Nutrient response: They may have needed more phosphorus/potassium or different ratios to bulk up properly. The fact that you had to force Corkscrew into 12/12 at week 20 and it's now only "OK" suggests it was a slower or lower-yielding pheno for your conditions. Strong Performers Brothers Grimm → These sound like the real winners in your tent right now. Brothers Grimm has a reputation for unique, high-quality landrace-influenced genetics with excellent resin and flavor profiles. "Otherworldly better" is high praise — they clearly thrive in your setup. Humboldt Seed Company autos → Excellent choice for resin production. OG Triploid is a standout for trichome density. Fast Buds → Reliable, fast, flavorful — a safe, consistent auto line. Recommendations Going Forward Double down on what works: Keep running more Brothers Grimm (especially the ones you loved). Stick with Humboldt for autos when you want maximum resin. Fast Buds for speed and flavor. 3/30 4am Pink Kush CBD is SLOW.... she never really recovered from early problems, I LOVE this strain, smoke and smell are 10/10. I blew it up early from problems that are NOT MY FAULT. so there. 4/1 12pm We're gonna need a bigger TENT!!!💐🌼Humboldt Seed company email today...Im doing this!!! https://californiahempseeds.com/garden-seeds/

Topping and LST is used and in the first day of week 3, I transplanted them to 5 gallons grow bags so they are growing well and the methods are looking great full to my plants. In those 3 clones, 91 Octane from In House Genetics was the biggest and tallest one.

------GENERAL COMMENT------ Girls are moving forward without troubles, i'm pleased not having to deal with issues. I'm breaking down the feeding schedule like: Sensi Base + Bigbud*(or pk booster) + Recharge > VeloKelp+Natures Candy+Bigbud*. So there is constant feed, every other day mixed in 1.5l water. Once a week i give Cal Mag 2ml /l. Not touching the girls with any HST or stress since I switched to flower. Is the first time i'm running recharge from the beginning to the end, have to say that is solid. ------GG.AK47 COMMENT------ What a pleasure to see that many colas and a vibrant girl giving fruits! 😎👊 I'm very curious to see the results in this one, solid strain! Aroma is gasy and diesel like.

Hello Diary. The second week of flowering is behind us. I did a little defoliation this week, I honestly didn’t dare remove more leaves and branches, I didn’t know how they would react to it. Maybe I needed more? The temperature is still high, sometimes rising to 29, 30 degrees, but mostly around 28. Humidity in the air is an average of about 55% but sometimes rises to 60%. The problem is frequent rains this summer which creates high humidity in the air and this affects the humidity in the box as well. The flowers are developing nicely, and they have started to smell as well, but let the pictures speak for themselves. The plants are big for my conditions, the 120 x 60 box size is perhaps too small for three plants (two Hulkberries and one Green Gelato), so the real jungle is in the box. It’s already a challenge to take them out every week for a photo shoot, but I try to be as careful with them as possible. The Hulkberry has reached a height of 113 cm which is on the verge of acceptability. If it continues another ten cm, I’ll be in trouble because the lights can’t lift more than this. 18/07/2020. - Day 30. Defoliation. I removed the leaves at the very bottom of the plant to make it easier for me to water them, after that I watered the plants but this time I didn’t put BioBizz, I just watered them with clean water. 21/07/2020. - Day 33. Watering. This time I gave them BioBizz, on schedule for the second week of flowering. I also added CalMag 1.5ml / L, preventively. While they don’t show they’re missing anything, I’ll keep adding CalMag. 23/07/2020. - Day 35. Photography and height measurement. Hulkberry Auto # 1 - Day 35. - 97cm Hulkberry Auto # 2 - Day 35. - 113cm That’s all for this week, see you soon.
