Week 8 is finally here! We changed up the nutrient feeding to the week 8 on the feed chart. I am diluting everything at a 50-40% rate to keep EC within acceptable ranges of 0.8 - 1.1 EC. I started adding Terpinator to the mix and I do notice a significant smell increase vs. without it. I am going to keep using this as I think it is a great supplement. I did figure out that even though on the bottle and on the specific feed chart, it says it is a light formula that will have minimal impact on EC and will not burn your plants at the recommended rates - it will! First time mixing up my nutrients with terpinator, I had to dilute it because the EC was too high. I put the recommended amount in my mix, and checked EC and low and behold it was high. The next feeding I did a 50% dilution rate and that seemed to be ok if you are diluting your other inputs properly to compensate. ALWAYS make sure your EC and PH are in check prior to fertigating your plants. I am watching the trichomes on a daily basis and am looking to harvest sometime this week or next. I plan to dry it in the tent it is growing in as it has AC and good airflow. Once they are done drying, they will get trimmed up, lightly vacuum sealed and stored in the freezer. Updates will be coming throughout the week!

J'ai lancé la floraison le 24 avril !! J'espère que mes plantes vont faire de belles fleurs 🌱🌴

se comienzan a desarrollar algo mas rapido mis chicas, ya pronto les toca su primara aplicacion foliar con preventivo, parametros de temperatura y humedad controlados

День 84 (конец 12 недели сегодня) - Все прекрасно растет. Мать поливаю 3-4 литрами через день. Первые клоны через день по литру воды и вторые клоны раз в 3 дня тоже по 1 литру. Материнское растение конечно сильно уперлось в лампу, даже листики ей пожгло, но сегодня пришлось разобрать сверху гроубокс и сделать подвесную лампу над боксом. По сути добавил ей для роста 50-55 сантиметров еще. У первых клонов приподнял лампу на 50 см над растениями, так как заметил, что они от переизбытка света стали немного листы опускать. Сегодня было около 15см между верхушками и лампами. Высота матери - 135 см. Первые клоны - 57-60 см. Вторые клоны - 44-46 см. И наконец-то заканчивается вега и перевожу на цветение сегодня!!! У них будет длинная ночь. Поставил пока им световой режим 11/13. Хочу чтобы побыстрее зацвели. На следующей неделе, думаю начну с того, что распишу список состава своего supersoil. Заметил что стал забывать компоненты.

We are in week five now sorry for delay .the Grandaddy black is coming on super fast she’ll be ready at 8 weeks she’s stacking super nice lookin very frosty she glistens like diamonds under the light.my other Bruce girls are beefing up nicely but they are on the Sativa side of the spectrum I reckon ten possibly 11 week finisher but she’s gonna have some hefty buds each plant. has its own aroma some very sweet and some very musky diesel smelling

Excited to see the pistols keep coming and coming I have such tight spacing that the buds will probably start connecting by the end of the week on the Royal Gorilla Day 19- Tomorrow I will tie some branches down to open up the plants more. The LSD plants needs it the most!

[This is a beginner's journey to grow a Blue Dream plant outdoors, from seed, for the very first time. I added 3 clones in week 7, and I will include their progress, but each week this journey will feature Foster, the Blue Dream. Thanks for joining me as I learn to grow outdoor cannabis in the beautiful Willamette Valley.] Foster is doing very well this week. At the recommendation of my local organics shop, I've switched my nutrients from Fox Farms (Big Bloom & Grow Big) over to GreenGro's Nature's Pride veg nutrients (info here: http://www.thegreengro.com/product/veg-6-3-3-5/). It's a powder, and I'm feeding 14ml/gal (or, since she's in a 45 gallon pot, 630ml) as a top dressing once/week. I really like the nutrients--it includes mycorrhizae. I will also add a microbial compost tea next Friday at feeding. The Nature's Pride nutrients are a bit more expensive than the Fox Farm nutrients I was working with, but the folks at my organics shop have the plant science background, and its what they use, so I'm going to track the results in the coming weeks. At any rate, It's been a very hot, windy, and humid week in Western Oregon, and she's been drinking nearly 2 gallons/day. New growth looks very healthy, and the sites where I've topped are growing 2 new vibrant colas.

Please like and follow the diary, or leave a comment!! appreciate the support guys🙏💚🔥 Ok guys here we are i thought they would be ready for harvest by now, but i think they gave another 7-9 days to go soo fingers crossed next post will be harvest time! I would have carried on feeding if I knew it would take this , but now we are on flawless finish until harvest Trichomes are still mostly milky, have some clear ones on the banana purple punch because she is foxtailing like mad because of heat, and just a touch of amber on some Been 30+ Celsius most of the grow, luckily this week will be cooler for them I also did a stupid and fell in my tent while taking pics, ended up with 1 branch of z up as a premature tester hahaah I've added some pics of it Am going to enter my banana purple punch and z up in the biggest cola contest (I know my ruler starts from 22cm my 10 month old broke it) so BPP is currently 34cm long and the z up is 24 cm long

At the beginning of week 2 the plants have grown fine, but also developed some yellow leaf-tips, which I assume is from the amount of light they receive. Therefore I decide to hang the both LED-fixtures higher. The LUMATEK ZEUS PRO 600W is now at 75 cm distance and the two SANlight Q6W-Gen.2 are at 90 cm distance from the top of the clones of CANNALOPE HAZE from DNA-GENETICS. The humidity inside the HOMEBOX-tent is kept permanently at 60% during veg. The grow-controller GROWBASE PRO from GROWCONTROL does a GREAT job in keeping a constant environment inside my growtent. As a precaution I put up some yellow sticky traps against fungus-gnats and also hang sachets with predatory mites from KOPPERT (=Thripex PLUS) on every plant. This will prevent spider-mites and thrips to invest my tent, since the predatory mites will eat them right away. I LOVE BIOLOGICAL TREATMENTS and decide on it every time instead of using chemicals, because I grow my own medicine here and dont want ANY CHEMICALS on my cannabis! 👍😎 At the end of week two I slightly increase the light intensity again, by adjusting the dimmers of my LEDs. The Lumatek is now set to 50% dimm-level and the SANlights are running at 60%. Until now there is not much difference to see between the two sides, all plants are healthy and doing well.

Gelato-K By Kannabia Seeds Week #19 March 15th-22nd Week #8 of Flower About 4 weeks left. She continues to stack and swell her buds are cover in trichomes.

How RQS Compares to Your Standouts Brothers Grimm (your "otherworldly" stars: Montel Iced Tea, Body Count, Bubbles Blueberry F4, Ricky’s Hash Plant, Black Tangi Tea) These are landrace-influenced, heirloom-style genetics with exceptional resin, unique flavors, and structure. They outperform RQS in quality, potency, and "wow" factor in your tents. RQS tends to be more commercial/hybridized for ease and yield, while Brothers Grimm prioritizes distinctive traits and consistency in experienced hands. Humboldt Seed Company autos (your top autos for resin, especially OG Triploid) Humboldt focuses on West Coast legacy genetics with heavy resin production. Clearly superior to RQS autos in trichome density and overall quality. RQS autos are faster and easier for beginners but often lack the resin "frost" and depth you get from Humboldt. Fast Buds (fast, flavorful, reliable autos — you like them a lot) Excellent speed and flavor profiles. You noted they're in a "different class" — fair point. Fast Buds emphasizes quick cycles and modern hybrids with nice terps, while RQS autos can feel more generic or require more coaxing. Quick Thoughts on Your Observations Brothers Grimm (Montel Iced Tea, Bubbles Blueberry F4, etc.): These are clearly the stars in your current setup. The strong smell, unique leaf morphology, and overall vigor in small pots show they're expressing well under your conditions. They reward careful growing with quality that feels special — resin, flavor complexity, and effects that fit your low-dose, functional style better than most commercial lines. Your homemade cross (Gelato 44 × Bubbles Blueberry F4 pollen = "Blueberry Knockout"): Nice work on your first intentional cross-pollination! Getting viable seeds and decent plants from a garage-level cross is a real win. It’s not "pretend breeding" — it’s exactly how many great lines started. The fact that it turned out "pretty nice" is encouraging. However, as you noted, combining a Royal Queen Seeds Gelato 44 (solid but commercial) with Brothers Grimm Bubbles Blueberry F4 (higher-quality, more unique genetics) creates a hybrid that can show the best of both, but also some inconsistency. If the RQS side brings easier growth but less depth, while the Brothers Grimm side brings the special traits, the offspring can be hit-or-miss depending on which phenos you kept. RQS Gelato 44 / Mike Tyson 2.0 vs. Brothers Grimm: Your experience matches what many growers report. RQS lines are generally more "user-friendly" and higher-yielding for beginners or volume grows, but they often lack the resin density, terpene complexity, and unique expressions you get from Brothers Grimm. The Tyson 2.0 collaboration added hype, but in your tents it landed at 7/10 while Brothers Grimm hit "otherworldly." That gap in quality is why you're leaning toward sticking with the professional, boutique genetics going forward. 3/30 11:17PM Gelato 44 & Punch Pie were nice right off the tree the little buds put me right to sleep last night!! The Autos are 7-10 but the Photos are 8/10

She looks as healthy as her sister,she's happy,no issues at all,and starting to show the first pistils on August 24th.let's see how this wonderful strain performs. 😊💚🌱

06/08/22 1 er jour de la 7eme semaine hormis la chaleur tout va bien, elle font en moyenne entre 80 et 100 cm et consomme 500ml jour sachant que je met le même programme de nutrition a tous le monde.la weedding glue étant la plus homogène elle ont le même gabarit et poussent a l'identique jolie a voir maintenant qu'elle se densifie.la weeding cheesse cake quand a elle sur les 3 une a eu un peu de mal a démarre la floraison mais elle et repartis comme Usan Bolt .sinon rien a redire ma préférée. maintenant la gorilla cookie que dire a part du bien costaud ,belle ,résistante, pas haute, pour l'instant cet elle qui a les plus beau et gros fruits hâte de voir la semaine défile.😁 09/08/22 je viens de passer a l'eau pour rincer je préfère lui mettre une semaine de plus de rinçage que ce que l'on ma préconiser, malgré les grosses grosses chaleur elles ont bien tenus merci @fastbud. elles sont vraiment résistantes car j ai eu des pousser de quelques heures a 39% malgré cela elles évoluent bien la défoliation c'est faite plus naturellement que par moi la cheese cake et formidable pour les petits espace car peu de végétale .l'odeur commence a être plutôt forte et je trouve que cela fais une jolie foret en vu général, pour une 465w je trouve que ma lumatek zeus 465 pro 2.9 m'offre une belle culture pour l'instant la fin approche doucement. 12/08/22 demain derniers jours de la 7 em semaines elles ont pris des couleurs et un coup de chaud 40% hier soir je m'estime vraiment chanceux de ce que sa donne pour ma 1 er culture . la semaine prochaine il pleut les température baisse magnifique
