Woche 14 – Urlaub? Die Buddha kennt das Wort nicht. 🌴🌿 Eigentlich sollte diese Woche ganz entspannt werden. Koffer gepackt, 10 Tage Türkei, Sonne, Meer und abschalten. Zumindest für mich. Meine Laughing Buddha hatte da allerdings ganz andere Pläne. 😄 Bevor es losging, bekam sie noch einmal 8 Liter Wasser, der 40-Liter-Topf wurde zuvor noch mit frischer Erde aufgefüllt und anschließend hieß es: “Bis in zehn Tagen.” Zum Glück hängt inzwischen eine Kamera im Growroom. So kann ich jeden Tag kurz nach dem Rechten sehen. Es ist schon verrückt, wie beruhigend so eine kleine Kamera sein kann, wenn man hunderte Kilometer entfernt am Pool sitzt. 😅 Da ich diese Woche natürlich keine Fotos machen konnte, gibt es diesmal einen kleinen Zeitraffer der Hobbit-Cam, damit ihr trotzdem verfolgen könnt, wie sich die Lady in meiner Abwesenheit entwickelt. 📹🌿 ⸻ Das zweite Netz erwacht zum Leben Eigentlich hatte ich gehofft, dass die Triebe während meines Urlaubs langsam bis zum zweiten Netz wachsen. Die Buddha hatte offenbar andere Vorstellungen. Schon wenige Tage nach meiner Abreise schoben sich die ersten Spitzen durch das obere Netz. Mit jedem weiteren Tag kamen neue dazu. Genau so hatte ich mir das vorgestellt. Ich wollte vor dem Urlaub bewusst nicht noch einmal trainieren oder auslichten. Die Pflanze sollte einfach wachsen dürfen – ohne zusätzlichen Stress. Im Nachhinein war das genau die richtige Entscheidung. Die Triebe entwickeln sich gleichmäßig, die Höhe bleibt erstaunlich homogen und die Fläche wird immer geschlossener. Genau diese gleichmäßige Krone wird mir nach dem Urlaub das Verteilen im zweiten Netz deutlich erleichtern. ⸻ Grow aus der Ferne Es fühlt sich immer noch etwas ungewohnt an, einen Grow komplett aus der Ferne zu begleiten. Normalerweise stehe ich täglich im Growroom, kontrolliere jede Spitze und freue mich über jeden Zentimeter Wachstum. Dieses Mal bleibt mir nur der Blick auf die Kamera – und genau das macht dieses Update irgendwie besonders. Umso schöner ist es zu sehen, dass die Buddha ihren eigenen Plan verfolgt und offensichtlich bestens zurechtkommt. ⸻ Wie geht es weiter? Noch ein paar Tage Urlaub. Bis dahin heißt es für die Buddha nur eines: Wachsen. Nach meiner Rückkehr wartet dann der wahrscheinlich spannendste Abschnitt der gesamten Vegetationsphase: * alle Triebe sauber im zweiten Netz verteilen, * unterhalb gründlich auslichten, * der Pflanze ein paar Tage Erholung gönnen * und anschließend endlich den Wechsel in die Blüte einleiten. Ich habe das Gefühl, dass sich die vielen kleinen Entscheidungen der letzten Wochen langsam auszahlen. Und wenn ich die Entwicklung über die Kamera sehe, freue ich mich jetzt schon darauf, die Tür zum Growroom wieder zu öffnen. Ich glaube, die Laughing Buddha nutzt meinen Urlaub mindestens genauso gut wie ich. 🍀🌿

Big bud strain is the one with smalest buds, but thats my fault, not an easy life for her, many problems with ph result in slow growth.. New growth is now more green, but i think its to late for the recovery so i dont expect to much from her 💔 The others have a few brow spots and yellow leaves but overall they look good 🙏 Watering 3L + nutes every 2 days. Day 45 Buds are getting more fat now 😍 But they have a bit nute burn, a little more on #2, i will reduce the nutes.. Big Bud is still very fragile, with signs of heat stress.. 🙁 Smell is very sweet in the tent 😋

Not going to say I expected more as I did but I can also say wow they’re doing amazing and forming big ole buds! And the aromas are crazy coming from all of them! And I have NEWSSSSSS… so mystery revealed! On 2 big ones solo still forming! But bottom left is FASTBUDS purple punch and top left is FASTBUDS forbidden runtz and I’m so glad of it as I wanted them to be the fastbuds to get another finish or a better one on these and it seems I may not with the forbidden runtz but I will with the purple punch! My next run I will hold back as best as I can to do nothing but open them up and not defoliate or trim one set and visa versa on the others back to back to see the difference alongside each other! Be great too as I have more fastbuds to run and new Zamnesia to do on this so will be equal in timing! Plus I get to do some solos so will be a great grow!

Esta semana se nota el estallido de la floración. Los pistilos van cogiendo vigor y tamaño. Las flores continúan oscureciendo e incluso las hojas y sus tallos van adquiriendo ese color rojizo/púrpura. 🌿 El tallo tiene un tamaño y consistencia considerable, lo que le está permitiendo resistir algunas rachas de viento sin excesivo problemas y sin necesidad de soportes o guías (por el momento). Se perciben un poco mejor los aromas de las floración, aunque siguen siendo débil. Una ya ha alcanzado los 36cm y la otra 40cm. Seguimos aumentamos la cantidad de agua, progresivamente, según van pidiendo/necesitando las plantas. Sigo intentando no utilizar ningún tipo de "ayuda extra", salvo la tierra enriquecida de @BioBizz All-Mix donde están plantadas. Así que por ahora; agua mineral, luz solar, mucha paciencia y mucho amor!🤞😍

Antes de podar dentro de la carpa era una selva, al cortar las ramas bajas y hojas grandes se me pasó un poco la mano y pensé que no tendrían la fuerza por ya haber pasado a floración a volver a llenar la carpa.

This plant is growing well, I transplanted them this week into 3 gallon pots from 1 gallon pots. Structure on this plant is pretty nice and visually pleasing to the eye lol.

week 7 first flowering week when I finally discovered my princess was actually a prince. 12/12 flowermind ferts (6ml + 0.5g) LST + defoliation started seeing some thrips again, but just a few, nothing to worry so, the plant stayed for 4 weeks in the tent, under COB LED 200W.

Bud sites are producing black/purple spot in leaves. Bud growth is producing as the days go by. Really excited with this being my first grow Nitrogen boost really helped with the deficiencies. Plants are starting to look really heathy... Prunes lower colas that weren't stretching past the canopy and receiving energy so more energy can be used towards the top buds

I sowed cantaloupe bag seeds directly to flower box drip irrigation.I transplanted my white widow seedling to flower box. So the new line up this run is cantaloupe, blueberry, Girl Scout cookies and white widow. Cantaloupe seeds sprouted and i will keep the most vigorous grower.bb is throwing pistils.GSC is producing first set of true leaves. At the end of week 2 cantaloupe has first leaves so does white widow. My Gsc has first set of true leaves and my blueberry is putting out pistils and trichs.Things are going well

I am dropping a Grand Daddy Purple auto. I scuffed both seeds ends. I dropped it in water. It will stay there for 24 to 48 hours until a tap root shows. I will then drop it in coco, and dome till it sprouts. Thank you ILGM, and Medic Grow. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

🌿 Week 12: Symphony of Growth (Flower Week 7) We’ve officially entered Week 7 of bloom, and the energy in the tent has shifted. The plants are no longer growing tall for the light; they are focusing all their remaining power into hardening those colas and finishing the resin production. 🎼 The Vltava Ritual I’ve introduced a new element to the grow this week. Every morning, as the lights roar to life, I play "Vltava" (The Moldau) by Bedřich Smetana. They say plants react to vibrations, and what’s better for a flow of life than a classic masterpiece? It’s become a ritual—the rising sun of the LEDs accompanied by the rising strings of the symphony. The girls seem to love the high-class treatment! ❄️ Status: The Final Ripening The Banana Purple Punch Auto is looking world-class. The frost has moved from the buds onto the sugar leaves, and the density is getting serious. • Trichome Report: I'm seeing a sea of milky white heads. We are very close. I’ll be watching for that first 5-10% of amber to decide on the final flush. • The Fade: The nitrogen yellowing we discussed last week has progressed, which is perfect. The plants are naturally depleting their stores, ensuring a clean, smooth smoke without that "chemical" green taste. 🛠️ Maintenance & Environment • Defoliation Check: The air is moving freely through the canopy after my previous heavy leaf-stripping. No signs of moisture traps or stagnant air. • RH: Kept strictly at 40-45%. In this stage, humidity is the enemy. • Smell: Overpowering. A thick, sweet, fruity scent that hits you the moment the tent zips open. One love growmies 💚🇯🇲 Wondrej

Alright grow cycle, mistakes, improvements, etc... She did stay in veg for too long, her growth was slow and not the best and so she took quite long, next time i'll be there from the beginning so I can take care of her throughout. But her growth is really fun. It is a tall growing sativa with fairly tight noding when trained accordingly, producing long filled colas. The buds grow fairly dense and fluffly but do air out a little when dried. Trichome production was pretty impressive as well as terpene production. She had thrips since her early days but did not seem to mind them at all. I did spray them initially but once flower started I stopped. I believe predatory mites might have been feeding on the pupae in the soil, if that is what this specific species of thrips did, the reason I say that is I could never see adults only larvae. Whatever the case maybe they were there but the population never really increased. Something I did not mention during the grow is that those plants were played music during the days, music that is apparently developed for plants. The 10L pot was WAY too small for a true sustainable living organic and to provide enough space for the plant, that was a mistake, I'd say a 20L would be the bare minimum and still. The bigger the better. The hempy transfer did not hurt the plant and I believe even helped to some extent, BUT, I am still running test on the subject and so can't confirm anything, here are my observations Roots did not colonize the perlite, a little on top and the sides but that was it, I was expecting to see a big root mass in there. I believe hempy are great for salt fert as it hold a soup of nutes where the plant can feed from since the coco only holds very little Whereas in nature most nutrient are in the top soil where the highest amount of decomposition happens, this is where the highest microbial activity happens and so where the plant will find food. Living organic is trying to reproduce nature and so there is no need for the plant's roots to gather at the bottom of the pot. Although it could have potentially provided the plant access to a larger amount of water and possibly more oxygenation of the pot. Those are all theories, please speak up if you have other proofs. In conclusion , unless i get proven otherwise by someone or my latest running experiment , I will not be using hempies again as I believe it brings more complication and issues than a simple fabric pot. The lights, The 600w at the start was good, then I decided to add a 400w...😂 That was completely overkill and not necessary. Waste of electricity. And they started suffering from too much light it seems at some point, I raised the light by a good 30 cm and they were fine. 600 is more than enough. I am happy about how the soil performed but it has room for improvements. As for the watering technique I have been watering large ammount every few days, next time I will be giving constant small amount of water each day and a soak every week or so, I believe the soil might perform better under those conditions. She was also an easy plant to harvest whit her long colas which had very little foliage, I do trim in excess as I like my buds extra clean but the buds are not excessively bushy. The trims were use to make some bubble hash, around 100g of wet trims yielded around 1.5-2g of bubble hash. I did add a negative effect but only because it wouldn't give me a smile otherwise, but to be honnest it barely dries your mouth. The soil is going to be recycled and reused in a next grow. I can't think of anything else at the moment but if you have any question don't hesitate.

She grow slowly but healty, get higher temperatures I placed the growbox near the radiator, dimmer still at 25%, boiled tap water also this week, this guaranteed me an ideal pp for the beginning, from now on I will use mountain water which will allow me to use less fertilizer.
