Week 1 of flower over going great plants are a nice size the tent is full up now I've moved a runtz muffin plant the 2 mac 1 and the mimosa to a small veg room so they can veg for longer and be ready for the next diary. It's quite hot round here atm and tent is hitting 27 degree not ideal but that's typical English weather sometimes good most of the time shitty happy growing team 🙂 any advice and help would be much appreciated send me a message any time I love the feed by Future harvest highly recommended see yous next week for my week 2 flower update thanks for all the help from my sponsors @Hydroprowashington @Anesiaseeds @divineseeds @monkeynutrients

Hey Leute, kurzes Update von meinem DWC-Run. Wir sind jetzt voll in der vierten Woche und die Mädels fangen richtig an zu performen. Der Stretch legt sich langsam, und die Blütenstände schwellen überall an – die Vorfreude steigt! Nährstofftechnisch fahre ich das Hesi-Programm (Hydroblüte, Boost, SuperVit). Da wir jetzt in die entscheidende Phase gehen, habe ich mich getraut, noch eine fast schon homöopathische Dosis von 5 ml Hesi PK 13/14 hinzuzufügen. Mit einem EC von 1,80 sind wir zwar am oberen Limit – die Blattspitzen zeigen schon ganz leicht, dass sie "gut im Futter" stehen –, aber bei 19 Grad Wassertemperatur und einem stabilen pH von 6,1 fühlen sie sich pudelwohl. Kleiner Dämpfer diese Woche: Meine 24-Stunden-Überwachung hat leider den Geist aufgegeben – Sensor kaputt. Das heißt für mich erst mal "back to basics" und jeden Tag manuell messen, bis Ersatz da ist. Aber hey, so bleibt man wenigstens nah dran an den Pflanzen! Dank LST und meinen treuen Biege-Clips sieht das Blätterdach schön gleichmäßig aus. Jetzt heißt es Daumen drücken, dass der PK-Schub die Buds in den nächsten Tagen ordentlich pusht. Stay tuned! ✌️🌱

How is it?

Second time i grew these lady's. First was on 50 procent coco 50 procent claypebbles on biotabs and had a yield of 220 gram beautifull dry flower in 2 35 L pots, this run i did plagron lightmix soil and used canna bio line in 1 25 l pot. This one had much more trichome production but flowers are i litle bit smaller. Overal im verry happy with this and its drying now as we speak

🌱 Sour Diesel — Week 8 (Flower Week 3) — Strategic Reset Week ⸻ 🔁 Quick Recap — Where We Are • Genetics: Sour Diesel • Timeline: Week 8 from seed • Flowering: Week 3 • Height: ~60–70 cm (compact structure) • Room Temp: 28°C • RH: 65% • Feed EC: 2.9 • pH: 6.5 (kept above 6.0 intentionally) • Lighting: LED • Action this week: Strategic defoliation This plant is not tall — she’s compact, dense, and structurally tight. Which means airflow and internal light penetration become critical early. And that’s exactly why this week mattered. ⸻ 🍃 The Defoliation — Not Aesthetic. Architectural. This was not cosmetic trimming. It was: • Removing large fan leaves blocking interior bud sites • Cleaning inner congestion • Opening airflow channels • Resetting light distribution across the canopy • Helping the entire room environment (not just this plant) The room needed air — this plant was advanced enough to handle stress. That’s key. Week 3 of flower is the transition window: • Stretch is slowing • Bud sites are set • Energy shifts toward stacking At this stage, a strategic defoliation: • Improves transpiration efficiency • Reduces microclimate humidity pockets • Prevents internal leaf-to-leaf condensation • Encourages bud site activation below the top canopy This was structural architecture. Not haircut vanity. ⸻ 🌡️ 28°C in Flower — “Too Hot?” Let’s Go Deep. People panic when they hear 28°C in flower. But here’s where most growers confuse: 🔥 HPS vs LED Heat Behavior Under HPS: • Radiant heat warms leaf surfaces directly • Leaf temperature often equals or exceeds room temp • 28°C air under HPS can mean 30–32°C leaf temp • That pushes VPD dangerously high Under LED: • Less infrared radiation • Leaf surface temp is typically 1–3°C LOWER than room temp • So at 28°C room temp, leaf temp might be 25–26°C And VPD calculations depend on leaf temperature, not air temperature. ⸻ 🌿 What Is Leaf VPD? VPD (Vapor Pressure Deficit) measures the difference between: • Moisture inside the leaf • Moisture in the surrounding air But if you calculate VPD using only room temp, you’re missing the real transpiration dynamics. With: • 28°C air • ~25–26°C leaf surface (LED) • 65% RH Leaf VPD sits in a very workable mid-flower zone. Not extreme. Not stress-inducing. Not shutdown territory. We’re driving metabolism, not cooking terpenes. ⸻ 💧 Why 65% RH Isn’t Dangerous Here Context matters: • Good airflow • Opened canopy • Compact but cleaned structure • Early-mid flower (Week 3, not Week 7) At this stage: • Pistils are forming • Bud density is still moderate • Transpiration is active High humidity becomes dangerous when: • Bud mass is dense • Internal airflow is poor • Late flower resin traps moisture We’re not there yet. And we just improved airflow with defoliation. ⸻ ⚡ EC 2.9 — Aggressive but Intentional That EC is strong. But: • Plant is compact, not oversized • Sour Diesel can eat • pH 6.5 keeps availability wide (Ca, Mg, P balance) The key will be: • Watching leaf tips • Monitoring runoff behavior • Watching for clawing or salt stress Right now, if she’s praying and stacking, she’s handling it. ⸻ 🔍 What To Expect Next Week (Flower Week 4) After defoliation: You may see: • Slight pause (24–72 hours) • Increased vertical bud push • Better lower-site activation • More defined pistil clustering • Stronger apical dominance response If recovery is clean: • Buds begin early stacking phase • Internodes tighten • Resin production initiates at bract level If stress appears: • Slight leaf droop • Tip burn acceleration • Reduced upward leaf angle But based on structure and timing — this looks calculated, not reactive. ⸻ 🧠 Why This Week Matters Long-Term This week determines: • Airflow pattern for late flower • Mold resistance later • Bud density uniformity • Final trim efficiency • Light-to-bud conversion efficiency This wasn’t about now. This was about Week 7 and 8 survival. ⸻ 🙏 Appreciation Section To: • The OGs here since seed • The new followers discovering the journey • The silent readers • The critics • The skeptics • The lovers • The haters • The platform • The sponsors • The community • Grow Diaries itself Everyone has a place here.

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.

Week 12

Привет всем моим друзьям с разных уголков мира. Я надеюсь своим примером, я показываю вам, то что партизанское движение возможно даже на вражеской территории, оккупированной клептократами. Если вы следите за мной, то вы знаете, что у меня подготовлено несколько партизанских отрядов. У меня было 40 растений Амурского гиганта, который родился в Амурской области, который входит в состав Дальневосточного федерального округа моей страны. Эти растения идеальны для выращивания на всей территории России. Я выбрал 30 самых сильный растений, которые проявляли гены гигантизма и вывез их за город на природу. Для того, чтобы удачно перевезти и трансплантировать 30 растений мне потребовалось очень много усилий, я расскажу вам об этом по порядку. Сразу оговорюсь, что у меня был один помощник, который выполнял всю физическую работу. Одному такое такой объём работы за один день сделать практически невозможно. Если вы один то, вы должны разделить свою работу на большее количество этапов, иначе вам будет слишком сложно. 1. В общей сложности ушло около 425 литров субстрата. Я взял 250 литров земли для цветов, добавил туда 115 литров вермикулита и около 60 литров гумуса – остатки жизнедеятельности дождевых червей. 2. Самым важным составляющим моего субстрата был гидрогель. Он удерживает до одного литра воды в течение 3 недель, даже перемешав его с землёй. У меня было 35 литров гидрогеля. 3. Так же у меня было порядка 30 литров чистой воды, в которые я добавил корневые стимуляторы и активаторы метаболизма. 4. Так же у меня было с собой немного перлита и пеностекла, но мне не хватило этих материалов на все растения. Но вы так же можете их использовать. После этого я выкапывал ямки, засыпал туда субстрат и добавил гидрогель, после чего трансплантировал растения. Мы приехали на место днём, но проработали на нём до самой ночи, пока на улице не стемнело. Как только все растения были удачно трансплантированы, мы удачно покинуло место, не включая фонарей или фар. Сейчас мне предстоит пересадить за один раз более 56 растений и перевезти практически 1000литров субстрата. Это крайне рискованно, но у меня нет другого выбора, так как была плохая погода долгое время. Если вам интересно следить за приключениями травки в России, подписывайтесь на мои дневники.

Day 30 noticed some white/yellow small looking maggots when i was defoliating which i believe to be thrips i have cleaned the grow area and gave all the plants a foliar spray of dr schimmel mite killer which seems to be doing its job and it says it can be used throughout the flowering stage going to give the 3rd application tomorrow hopefully then should be back on track but things are looking much better after thr first couple applications i am still going to continue big bud for another week due to the thrips interupting then will pk after for a week and finish with overdrive then flush please fee free to leave your input

This week went real well! All 5 of the Twenty20 Ogreberry Autos and the 1 Fastbuds Bruce Banner have successfully germinated and sprouted up from the soil!! This upcoming week we will start giving these girls a heavy feeding of nutrients PH d at 6.5 an see how they react , most likely will love it!! Temperature an humidity has been on point, through out the day we reach 70-75 degrees an a nice humidity of 65%which is always nice ! Hope you all enjoy an keep them eyes peeled for next week !! Peace, love, an positive vibes to all you Growmies out there! If any questions please feel free to ask , more then happy to help! Cheers everybody to another great grow!!!

This week went real great, 2 ogreberrys and Bruce banner got trimmed up an jarred ! We chopped the 3 other Ogreberrys on Sunday the 14th , they will hang out to dry for 14 days ! Stay tuned for next update! More trimming an weight an overall photos! Cheers to y’all 😶‍🌫️💨💨💨💨

Day 36. Girl is a stretcher, will have to do something, but most damage is behind and I think next watering I'll give her food again. Couple leaves taken off, couple branches bended , thinking to put support after main stretch will be over. Happy Growing !!!

Week 2 flower

Going well

On week 5 of actual flowering the plants are coming along nicely and HSC GSC is looking the best so far but its still early :) WW is slow to start flowering just small amount of pistils so far small buds looks more like week 3 or 4 as far as flowering progression.

Overdue diary as I was away and it showed. Another data point for me that i am a poor ourdoor growmie. Leaf miners and white flies decimated these plants. One plant actually "self topped" as the pests killed the top node. She recovered a bit after I relocated them both inside to a tent. I am doubtful they will have a full life (autos) but perseverance is my strength.

2/17 have about one week before harvest. Then 4 more will move in to the 2/18 harvested 3 plantz. 1 strawberry cough and 2 runtz. 66 days of flower. I will post picture of when done drying and going to cure. I defoliated my week 4 of flower girls. Adjusting week 7 girls under the net so they stay upright under the weight of bud there. And moving 3 more girls in to flower 1 runtz, one washington apple, and 1 . Also water night one gal of water per stage of flower. So the 3 in weeks 7 get 1 gal split between them and so do the week 4 girls 1 gal split between them
