Hi Growers, Midweek defoliation of the lower growth was done to improve airflow and direct energy to the upper canopy. The plants handled it well, so two days ago I flipped them to 12/12. ——————————————————————————— V polovině týdne proběhla defoliace spodního patra pro lepší cirkulaci vzduchu a nasměrování energie do horní části. Vše zvládly dobře, tak jsem je před dvěma dny přepnul na 12/12. Peace and happy growing ✌️

Flushtime... 😃 last week started and I will flush them for 4-5 days. Dont want to change water 2 times a week Trichomes and buds looking good. Next week harvest 👊😋

Days 15 to 17, varying by plant: My journey of experimentation, aiming to refine and perfect my cannabis cultivation methods, continues. This venture’s ultimate objective is to position myself as a preeminent cannabis cultivator in my locale. As I navigate through the labyrinth of regulatory licensing, I’m conducting a trial run with my seedlings under continuous lighting conditions and a minimal nutrient regime. My primary goal during this phase is to identify any potential hiccups that could hinder the growth process and ultimately impact the productivity of my intended commercial operation. As I delve deeper into this exploratory phase, I draw invaluable insights from the thriving cannabis community, whose collective wisdom informs my decision-making process. Given my geographical location and available resources, I’ve opted for a strategic shift in my cultivation strategy. Previously, I’ve been procuring seeds at an average cost of $10 to $22 per seed, with a relatively broad success rate variance, ranging from 70% to 85%. However, an alternative presents itself in the form of local cultivators. These businesses offer cannabis plants aged between 2 to 4 weeks, boasting an impressive variety of over 100 strains. These juvenile plants are offered at a cost-effective rate: an average of $100 for eight plants. With a success rate hovering between 70% and 95%, these plants offer excellent value. Essentially, I can access pre-grown plants at a substantial discount, in turn significantly boosting my chances of success. Consequently, I am poised to transition away from growing cannabis from seeds to harvesting. By sourcing my plants from local cultivators, I stand to significantly reduce overhead and production time—an undeniably smart move from a business standpoint. This strategic pivot signifies the end of an era and the exciting beginning of a more efficient and cost-effective chapter in my cannabis cultivation journey. I am currently outlining a plan to expand my cultivation by acquiring several juvenile plants, which should be happening between July 1st and 3rd. The new additions to my garden will include Acapulco Gold, Gelato, White Truffle, and Runtz. These will be cultivated in harmony with the existing growth, which comprises God’s Gift, Northern Lights, and the final surviving F1 Epsilon. My primary objective is to establish the most efficient and cost-effective supply chain possible. I aim to achieve this through the use of an off-grid system that runs solely on solar power, which will ensure complete sustainability and renewability. From a business standpoint, this approach is advantageous as it allows me to leverage the growth of high-quality plants that are already in the cultivation phase. The new plants are expected to arrive in about a week. If the growth rate of the currently cultivated plants doesn’t meet expectations, I’ll be incorporating several of the newly arrived plants into the hydroponics systems. This methodical approach aims to ensure an optimal growth rate and the highest possible yield. I also wish to address the cannabis grower community directly. I hope that my decision to skip the seed-to-plant stage does not cause any offense. My intentions are simply focused on maximizing quality and output, while minimizing our carbon footprint. I believe this approach is in the best interest of sustainability and efficiency, without compromising on the quality that our community values so highly. As we proceed with this venture, we’re currently in the phase of collecting equipment and navigating through the licensing process. To help lower our overhead and assist with consulting fees, we would greatly appreciate any donations, especially in terms of lighting equipment. Your support in this endeavor will contribute significantly towards optimizing our operation and will be deeply appreciated. Disclaimer: Let it also be known I am completely abiding by all state laws, and do not plan on selling any of this current bud. This is for research to avoid future growing "potholes" in the growing part of the business as we have a very small team. My end goal is to help change the current stigma around cannabis and provide a useful service that can help localize and reduce the inflation on cannabis prices in socal by providing a logical supply system. Again I intend on doing all things through the legal route as there is no need to do other wise given the laws on personal use and growing.

Hat mir alles sehr schön gefallen hab jetzt noch mehr Lust noch mehr zu machen hoffe es klappt alles auch in der Zukunft

Starting to drop the night time temps down a but but keeping the total change from day to night with in reason. The stretch is coming to an end and the bud sites are showing a lot of pistils. A lot of frost on the sugar leaves already. Things are looking good so far.

Info: Unfortunately, I had to find out that my account is used for fake pages in social media. I am only active here on growdiaries. I am not on facebook instagram twitter etc All accounts except this one are fake. Have fun with the update. Flowering day 54 since time change to 12/12. Hey everyone ☺️. We are slowly getting closer to the harvest 😍. You can see that the lady sucks all her energy out of the leaves and passes it on to the flowers. The buds smell very tasty 😍. It should be ready to harvest in the next 17 - 25 days. But of course we will be observing this closely with the microscope from next week. Otherwise the tent was cleaned as usual and the humidifier refilled. I wish you a lot of fun with the update.

Blütetag 87 | Tag 147 gesamt – Endgame ohne Shortcut 🌡️ Klima & Umgebung Das Wetter ist umgeschlagen – kalt und nass draußen, und das merkt man im Zelt direkt. Die Luftfeuchtigkeit zieht hoch und die Abluft läuft deutlich stärker, um das noch im Griff zu halten. Ist aktuell keine Traumphase vom Klima her und wäre definitiv ein Argument zu ernten… aber die Reife ist noch nicht ganz da. 🌿 Pflanzenstatus White Gushers 33 Zieht sich weiterhin. Der Amber-Anteil ist mir immer noch zu niedrig, viele Trichome sind noch nicht da, wo ich sie haben will. Foxtailing läuft weiter – oben wird weiter aufgebaut, obwohl Teile der Buds unten eigentlich schon fertig wirken. Das Gesamtbild wirkt dadurch nicht mehr ganz sauber, aber das ist aktuell einfach Teil der Phase. Ein bisschen mehr Reife geht hier noch. Triangle Sherbet Kush Die Kush ist sichtbar weiter und wirkt eigentlich schon ziemlich fertig. Da ich aber nicht getrennt ernten will, bleibt sie stehen und läuft mit durch. Ein paar Tage mehr kann sie noch mitnehmen. 🌸 Geruch Beim Öffnen des Zelts ist weiterhin ein blumiger, süß-floraler, leicht würziger Cannabis-Geruch wahrnehmbar. 🙏 Danke für die ganzen Antworten zur Grow-Frage Da kam richtig viel zusammen 💚 Unterm Strich war das Bild ziemlich klar: Die letzte Phase lässt sich nicht wirklich pushen. Sobald die Trichome milchig sind, läuft eher ein natürlicher Prozess, der einfach Zeit braucht. Viele haben ähnliche Ansätze genannt: kühlere Nächte, Licht reduzieren statt erhöhen, Photoperiode anpassen und insgesamt etwas trockener fahren. Genau das habe ich umgesetzt: 14/10 Licht, kühlere Nächte, trockeneres Setup und Licht deutlich runtergedimmt – Gushers ca. 40 %, Kush ca. 20 %. Aber klar ist auch: Das sind nur kleine Stellschrauben. Einen echten Push gibt es hier nicht. 🌱 Einschätzung & Ausblick Klima wird schwieriger, Reife noch nicht ganz da. Wir sind komplett im Endgame angekommen. Jetzt entscheidet nur noch das Timing. Grow on 🌱 🇬🇧 Day 87 Flower | Day 147 Total – Endgame – No Shortcuts 🌡️ Environment Weather has shifted – cold and wet outside, and you can feel it in the tent. Humidity is creeping up and the exhaust is working harder to keep things under control. Not the nicest conditions right now and definitely a reason to consider harvesting… but maturity isn’t quite there yet. 🌿 Plant Status White Gushers 33 Still dragging out. Amber levels are still too low and many trichomes aren’t where I want them yet. Foxtailing continues – stacking on top while lower parts already look finished. Not the cleanest look anymore, but part of this stage. Still some ripening to go. Triangle Sherbet Kush Clearly further along and already looks pretty much done. But since I don’t want to harvest separately, she stays in and runs with the others. A few more days won’t hurt. 🌸 Smell When opening the tent, there’s still a floral, sweet, slightly spicy cannabis aroma present. 🙏 Thanks for all the answers on the grow question A lot of solid input came in 💚 The overall picture was clear: This stage can’t really be pushed. Once trichomes are cloudy, it’s a natural process that just takes time. Common suggestions were: cooler nights, reducing light, adjusting photoperiod, and running things slightly drier. That’s exactly what I’ve implemented: 14/10 light, cooler nights, drier setup, and reduced light intensity – Gushers ~40%, Kush ~20%. But in the end: these are just small adjustments. There’s no real push here. 🌱 Assessment & Outlook Climate is getting trickier, maturity not fully there yet. We’re fully in the endgame. Now it’s all about timing. Grow on 🌱

I started to feed him a little more Monster Bloom, which seemed pretty cool. I continued to spray blizzard once a day for 1 week, and base water.

Planted seeds June 12th at 12:26am. While germinating the seeds and during the night time I will be keeping them all in a 2x2x5 grow tent under three 2 foot T5 bulbs to maintain a 24 hour light cycle. I am also using a seedling heat mat to raise the root zone temperature, along with creating a humid environment. Three seeds are visible from peat pellets June 14th at 8am. Last seed is visible through medium at 5pm. All plants sprouted with cotyledon leaves June 15th at 11am. Transplanted all the plants into 5 gallon fabric pots with pre-amended medium at June 17th. Three plants have first leaves forming, while one seems to be a little behind. Gave a light watering, along with heavy misting on the soil. Last plants first leaves started forming June 18 at 7pm. All plants are progressing well with minimal stretching. All 4 plants have their 2nd set of leaves starting to grow June 20th at 12pm. Put outside right at 12pm, then brought them inside at 9:30pm. Put outside June 21st at 1pm Watered them lightly twice with several hour gap in between. All leaves are praying up and all growth is progressing. Put inside at 11pm.

love this strain it grows easy just quite tall and dosnt like too much training I expected a lot more than 4oz and 6g of her as she was in a 30l pot had a longer veg, time more space and more light I'm just putting it down to growing in soil lol my first time and as u guys know I'm a coco grower but as said on previous diaries I have dried with a higher temp than usual so maybe lost some weight through that otherwise I'm always happy with some gorilla I love it . thanks again to all the guys n girls that follow chat comment like and help thanks for reading happy growing guys

First week of flushing.Here is my schedule for flushing with flawless finish. First flushing is with just a LOT lot water. Second flush:watering normal with flawless finish and flush after 20/24 Hours,let it sit overnight but be careful because trichomes will go crazy,if you don’t have enough milky trichomes this method will increase the trichome production immediately the next day. Repeat this method until you are satisfied with the results but don’t go more than 12/15 days,im using flawless finish 3 times in total so use it at least twice. 24 hours flawless finish isn’t doing any damage extra than the 8 hour schedule that advanced Nutrients prefer,but after 24 hours will start to damage the plant so you need to give a good flush after using it IM USING 1.5L WATER SO 2/2.5ml flawless finish

week intel: its time for second pruning they grew up too fast and need second pruning as below : first i remove big fan leaves and only leaves then let them rest for 1 day then the second part of pruning will get done that is removing branches based on these conditions: 1-if the branch is very low and never can make it to the top , 2- if branch is in shade even after pruning fan leaves , 3- if there are too many branches at the small space then non of them will get resources so if there is no space for branch then , they must get remove. everything is perfect! stresses : pruning big fan leaves and lower branches + a little E.C stress around 1.7 once a week feeding: i feed them 3 times this week with this order : day 1 : i feed them heavy with silicate +base nutrients(calcium & micros + Bloom) about 884 ppm - 1.7 e.c to cause a little stress. day 3 : i feed them low dose of Feeding Booster + Karbo Boost around 325 ppm - 0.6 e.c to let them recover a little but not fully recover still a little stress will caused. day 5 : i feed them with low dose of Top-Max + B-52 around 213 ppm - 0.4 e.c to let them recover the stresses to get ready for another stress next week. guide of the week : no more stresses from now on till the end and from next week i'll reduce the amount of nitrogen and calcium to below half to the end.

Oct 20 Starting Well Water 0.9EC or 450PPM (Hard Water) @ 19 Degrees Inputs : EC 2.0. PH 6.4 Temp 19-21 2 Gallons each Runoffs: EC 2.0, 2.1, 2.2 & 2.3 Goal is to Grow High Brix 12-15% better than the medical grade cannabis to help with a myeloproliferative neoplasm😧 as well as for fun😎. Any tips, working knowledge or suggestions towards this goal is greatly welcomed and would be played forward. Just read that if a plant has a BRIX of 12% or higher that some insects won't lunch on it! Loving this plant😀 Flavonoids and Cannaflavins are phytonutrients and along with carotenoids are responsible for colours. They are anti-mutagenic, anti-cancer, antioxidant, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, immuno-protective .. Maybe better than aspirin for inflammation trial is still out😉. Catechins are anti-proliferative, cardio-protective and reduce cholesterol. More medical studies need to be done on this plant😶 Some plants are showing signs of a deficiency. I believe I have locked out calcium. I watered yesterday with 2 Gal each of Dutch Nutrient Diamond which has amino acids, humic and fulvic ,kelp (has b vitamins and amino acids in it). Green Planet Terpinator for the 4% Sulphate of Potash (SOP) or potassium sulfate...I saw a Video with the awesome Dr. Harley Smith and wrote 7 pages of full scape and he mentions to use amino acids to help plants uptake calcium. These products contained them and I had them on hand...hope it helps.

Day 1 drying

Red Hot Cookies goes Indoor! 🍪💡 This week marked a big transition for my Red Hot Cookies photoperiod, as the relentless rain finally made me pull the plug on her outdoor run—for now. 🌧️ With more wet days on the horizon, I moved her into the grow tent, now running under a 300W LED to ensure the buds can develop in peace. She’s currently sharing the space with my two lovely Divine Seeds autos from the ongoing Divine Seeds V2.0 Competition, and the energy inside the tent is buzzing. ⚡🌱 Since the switch indoors, she’s adapting really well. 🌿 The buds are swelling visibly, and I’ve started to see a nice layer of early trichome frost forming on the sugar leaves. The scent is starting to develop—still subtle, but promising! However, I did notice some slight yellowing on the bottom fan leaves, which pointed to a nitrogen deficiency. Likely due to her strong structure and demanding flower phase, so I’ve increased BioBizz Grow slightly in this week’s feeding plan. Here’s what went into her care routine this week: 🔸 BioBizz Grow, Bloom & TopMax (standard dosage, with Grow slightly increased) 🔸 CalMag support for water hardness 🔸 Alg-a-Mic for overall vitality and stress resilience 🔸 Effective Microorganisms added to enrich microbial life 🔸 Homebrewed compost tea for extra soil life and root stimulation 🔸 pH: 6.5, carefully adjusted with BioBizz pH- 🔸 EC: 2.0, right in the sweet spot for mid-flower ✂️ On Day 21 of flower (10/07), I performed lollipopping to clean up the lower growth and focus energy upward She’s now officially in Week 4 of flower, and I couldn’t be happier with how she’s shaping up. Indoors she’s finally getting the light and airflow she deserves—no rain, no pests, just a controlled environment and full focus on fattening those buds. Let’s see how the next weeks unfold! 🔥🌿

10.08. OG KUSH Day 107# The plant is making great progress, with the fact that the day after the last update it broke during a storm..it broke in the middle of the tree where it splits into two main stems... After this much stress, plants either die or go wild, this one got through the critical period without any problems (I immediately tied it with laces where it broke and gave it against stress), so I expect some crazy flowers and now it has to stretch like crazy... Today it started to form crowns and will in the next ones days to enter early flowering The day before yesterday was the end of her 15th week. 2 days ago she got half a dose boost and a dose of bloom, and bloom again this morning. Stay High and Keep Growing!!!

Week 3, first nutrient treatment
