As a beginner grower - this is my 2nd grow ever and my very first run from seed - dialing in a fully automated sealed room, CO2 supplementation, precision NetBow drip irrigation, and plant biology has been a massive learning curve. It takes constant studying and testing, but the effort is paying off: the plants are super healthy, strong, and stacking flowers rapidly. Last week brought a major breakthrough in root-zone management. Instead of constantly fighting pH drift with acid, stability was locked in through proper ionic balance and bicarbonate buffering. The ATOMIK (v6.23) feed formula was fully aligned with the top 10 peer-reviewed research papers from the last 7 years (Dr. Bugbee / Utah State, Dr. Zheng / Guelph, and Dr. Bernstein / Volcani)

Both plants are really surprising me. Good genetics. They had a horrible veg, in wrong soil, and these girl are frosty, dank, and chunky (1of2). I'd like to grow this again properly. Day 54 This girl is done! Took a few microscope peeps toward the middle and I see about 40% amber trichomes. Chopping tonight! Gotta check the other one (Christmas Tree). Hoping she has a few weeks left to bulk up, I don't know if she's worth trimming and I hope it's not a male! A few hours later... Checked trichomes on several spots of the bud and we have 50/50 clear to cloudy. Needs another few weeks.

Flushed HARDCORE this week!! Ladies are not looking well nor do they seem like they’re reacting to the flush well either!! Almost seems like they’re locked out but also having deficiencies! I could use some advice on this. 3/5 of the taller plants have yellowed out and the other 2 look great!! Pretty much all the same watering and neuts. I think the issue was that I’m using fabric pots and not allowing enough penetration to the bottom and it created a salt pocket. Correct me if I’m wrong Updated a few more pics of the deficiency/lockout issues all the help is appreciated thanks to everyone whose chiming in and helping!! Y’all the real deal!!

Well and hmmm, there really is not much to say here as you can see. On the bright side she has a head, sort of, we think. All we can do is smile and hope she pulls herself together by the hairs of happiness that seem to be keeping her alive, it’s quite the reach! We have faith and hopefully there is a better report next week. It may be the name she was given but that is another wonderlands story!

Blue Dream 1 started showing lots of rust spots and yellowing on leaves so I added more CalMag+ Iron to the reservoir believing the symptoms to be a deficiency in CalMag. Blue Dream 3 also still showing signs of CalMag deficiency.

This week the Jelly Donutz clearly entered the heavy resin and terpene production phase 🍩✨ Buds are stacking nicely across the plant and the overall flower formation became much more pronounced. • Stretch completely finished • Focus fully shifted toward bud swelling and resin production • Spear-shaped flowers continue developing across the canopy The structure remained unchanged at around ~100 cm, confirming that vertical growth has fully stopped. Instead, the plant is now investing all energy into flower mass and trichome coverage 🌸 One of the most noticeable changes this week was the increase in frost production ❄️ Sugar leaves are now heavily coated and trichomes continue spreading deeper into the buds and surrounding leaf material. The aroma also became significantly louder 👃🔥 The terpene profile is difficult to describe but extremely unique, sweet, fruity and very reminiscent of jam or fruit confiture, with a candy-like background typical of the Jelly Donutz lineage. Light intensity remained high: • Top colas receiving up to ~1100 PPFD • Lower canopy still receiving ~800–1000 PPFD ☀️ Despite the strong light intensity, the plant continues handling it well with only minimal signs of stress. Water demand remained stable: • ~4L every 2 days 💧 Feeding this week was intentionally simple: • RO water + BioBizz CalMag only Environmental conditions stayed consistent: • ~24°C temperature • 50–55% RH 🌡️ No major training or defoliation was performed this week. The branches were only slightly adjusted and supported with stakes to improve spacing and light penetration through the canopy. Overall the plant looks healthy, increasingly resinous and very aromatic, with the flowers now entering the stage where density and terpene production begin accelerating noticeably 🍓🔥

Happy Birthday! One week old today and looking good. Stretched a little more than I hoped, but maybe that will help when I bend her in a few weeks. MA is front-center in the group shots.

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. Flowering day 7 since time change to 12/12 h. Hey everyone ☺️ Since the time was changed last week, the lady has grown really well 😌👍. Today I added 2 g GHSC Powder Feeding per l cocos. in 2-3 weeks she will get another 1 g per l coco. In the next few days I will remove the lowest shoots so that the energy doesn't go to waste for the weak ones. Otherwise, as always, the tent was cleaned every day and the humidifier refilled. I wish you all the best 👍 You can buy this Strain at : https://www.exoticseed.eu/ Type: Quick Sherbet ☝️🏼 Genetics: 75% Indica / 25% Sativa Sunset Sherbet X Black Lemon 👍 Vega lamp: 2 x Todogrow Led Quantum Board 100 W 💡 Bloom Lamp : 2 x Todogrow Led Cxb 3590 COB 3500 K 205W 💡💡☝️🏼 Soil : Canna Coco Professional + ☝️🏼 Fertilizer: Green House Powder Feeding ☝️🏼🌱 Water: Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC.

The plants have been on cruise control 🛳️ so far and they’re loving every second of it! Despite all of them being popped around the same time, I can see the purple lemonade finishing up much faster than the lsd-25’s. No deficiencies to my eyes, slowly plumping up day by day 🤘

Hello. This is the end of week 3 and the beginning of week 4 of flowering. I read an article a few years ago that said: If you force flowering for 3 weeks, you can put it outside after the summer solstice and it will keep on flowering. So, it's been a month since the summer solstice and this plant is going on to it's 4th weeks flowering. According to the article it should keep on flowering and not switch back to veg. This article was written for the Netherlands and where I live is below that latitude near the 48th, so they should keep on flowering. I saved a bit of pollen from my summer pollination run (see my Runtz Mintz Cream diary)and I'll be pollenating a branch, on this plant, this week, for future seeds. The plant is doing good. I see it's just starting to show some resin. I see lots of white stigma's, meaning... this plant will have big buds. OK. Be Great. Chuck.

From beginning to end this girl has been a pleasure to grow I will update the last information taste high and final bag appeal Thank you for reading have a happygrow. Updating this girl smokes as exotic as she looks she has a fruity almost perfume smell to it and the high last at least for 3 hours or more very strong but not overpowering allows you to enjoy friends and activity with no problems I must be honest this is a very impressive plant with incredibly large yield . Density is typical for a hybrid but it’s such a remarkable colour and smell +the high that is a must Try for any cannabis grower sweet seeds definitely score a very rare plant here AAAAA+ Cannabis grower

[ Information ] For all information on this grow, including strain and room details, please see the first week of veg. [ Updates ] Day 10 - Watered today, 1.2ec feeding of mainly organics (Fulvic/Humic, Kelp, Molasses, Big Bloom) with runoff. 6.8ph. Group one is stretching much harder due to plant density, I will be adding a net soon. Day 13 - Watered today with the nutrients listed for this week. 2.2ec at 6.5ph. 80gals total. Added a small dose of Open Sesame for the first time today as bud sites are starting to form on all plants. Added a net to Group 1 yesterday, I will add the nets for Group 2 in a couple days. Group 1 plants are 38-40 inches, group 2 plants are 32-34 inches. I may adjust net height, this isn't normally how I run a cycle; I'm trying a few different things side-by-side. The "one plant per square foot of canopy" group has consistently shown that even with a short veg period there is far too many wasted growth nodes on the sides of the canopy. The plants around the edge tend to branch out instead of up, as they're naturally trying to find sunlight. My last attempt at using these side branches with heavy topping of the middle nodes resulted in a higher yield, as expected as the light footprint was 5x5 instead of 4x4, which defeats the purpose of "one plant per square foot of canopy" anyways. A better test would have been to stunt the growth of all middle nodes enough to weave the side branches into the main canopy, though this seems to be a waste of time without much gain. I'm much happier with Group 2 which has 1 plant per 2 square feet of canopy space. While it also has side branching, the difference in height at the canopy level of the sides and middles are not nearly as different as Group 1, which means a more even light distribution without the need of a net. As overgrown as the room is getting, they still have 7-8 days before they're defoliated a final time.
