Vegetation Week 16: Heatwave Endurance & Growth Surge Update: 03.07.2025 | Day 118 Hey Growmies, Week 16 tested limits with scorching temps, but the ladies laughed at 37°C. Growth went into hyperdrive – here’s the breakdown: Heat Response - Survived 37°C peaks without stress signs (no wilting, no leaf curl). - Vertical explosion: ~20cm growth across both plants this week. New feeding mix: - 1 Biotab dissolved in 1.5L water → 50ml of this concentrate per 10L water + Bokashi juice. Result: Deep green vigor, zero deficiencies. Strain-Specific Updates Durban Poison: - Now towering with explosive branching (new shoots from every main stem). - Still vegging – no flowers yet. Easily clearing 170cm, on track for 2m+. - Low odor (neighbor-friendly for now). Bud potential looks massive. Blueberry: - Healthy at 170cm but less dense than Durban. - No pistils yet, no heat stress. Hopes high for autumn purples. - Structure balanced and robust. Pest & Health Check - Zero issues. Leaves pristine top to bottom. Next Steps - Monitor flowering triggers (daylight still 15 hours). - Continue Biotab/Bokashi mix weekly. - Prepare taller supports for Durban’s final stretch. Week 16 Takeaway Genetics + adaptiveness = unstoppable growth. Durban’s a jungle queen, Blueberry a steady grower. Some rain would be good te rehydrate the soil. Catch ya next week my friends. – Smoking_Joe_Frazier

Asal got a trim to open up the air flow and a LST to spread the canopy a little more. Thinking I am done with the lateral spread at this point. Benesh got the same treatment. Asman has been taking the hits when I have overdone the LSTing. Thank goodness for masking tape and time to repair!

Welcome to the start of week 5 for Queen Citronella. She has developed a thick stem and really short internodal spacing. She responds willfully to LST. Day 29.5: Repotted. Look at those roots!! This is a special plant. Day 30: There was brief transplant shock as I forgot to flush the medium to correct PH... she's bounced back today. Queen Citronella has almost outgrown Karen who is 2 weeks older. Day 31: Happy one month birthday your majesty! Swelling in every direction. Starting to gain height. Day 32: I've noted a sudden uptick in thirst. In an unrelated note I have added a little 15w LED above her at about 10cm. I doubt it'll make any noticable difference but it's in there anyway as I use it for photos, so it may as well be on. Day 32.5: Have removed approx 20 fan leaves and performed further LST. Day 33: Look how fast Queen Citronella responds to LST and defoliation. She has gained 1cm in the last 24 hours and now stands at 25cm. Day 34: 26cm. Day 34.5: Fertigated. Added pot risers and adjusted pot. Performed further LST on lower nodes. Performed HST on some higher nodes just for practice. Day 34.75: Fertigated 4l Day 35: She didn't gain any height at all that I can tell, but she has put on a lot of leaf growth in the last 24h. So here we are at the end of week 5, and Queen Citronella is starting to take her regal form. Slightly alarmed by the yellowing new growth but her growth rate has stepped up again so it may be just normal. I'll keep an eye on it. Once I can take enough clones I'll cut her back a lot. For now she can grow as much as she wants. Citronella now smells citrusy, if you brush against her it's quite strong. Defoliated approx 6 fan leaves.

If I had to do it again I will start them off in buckets for two weeks then drop them in my totes.

LOOKS GOOD. GROWING STEAD. ONE OF THE BEANS SPROUTED 1 WEEK BEHIND. REMAINING 4 SIMILAR SIZES. NO MUTATED OR SHRIVELED FAN LEAVES. SINCE OUTDOORS. IM NOT GONNA TRAIN TOO MUCH THIS TIME. SINCE THE SUN WILL HIT IT FROM ALL DIRECTIONS. LET'S KEEP HANDS OFF AND SEE HOW IT GROWS.

Nice buds, coated with frost. Lived through root wrought, so I will give this plant a good grade for disease resistance. I will continue filling in as harvest / curing completes.

I started to train with a base I purchased from @supherpanda. I didn’t want to put any holes in my bag which is why I went with the base. I also did some fimming. We will see what the outcome is.

All good

The girls are starting to wrap up their cycle. I have been watching the trichomes closely, and we are getting very close

She is in her 2 litre airpot for a few weeks.

Day 36 I guess I can call it bloom. Nice strong pistils shooting all over. She is the tallest so far making me raise my lights a little more. Day 38 Now Californian Snow is the tallest :) Ztrawberry stopped at a perfect height, it looks like she's gonna develop into a beautiful lady. Fat white pistils all over 😻 Day 39 Happy girl got 2500ml cm bg bb bh 6.3ph ~1EC She is perfect, symmetrical, stopped stretching at about 50cm, flowers are mostly leveled, branches are strong, leaves point up unless I water. I think she's also turning purple. Beaut 😻 Day 42 I think I saw some burnt tips but she still looks super happy and healthy. The most vigorous plant I've had.

Semana 15: Ella ha rebotado al mejorar el tiempo, pero como no va a dar mucho más de si he decidido quitarla. Tiene un agradable aroma cítrico acompañado de toques dulces. Ha salido un fenotrigo, poca hierba pero de calidad, seguramente con mejor clima hubiera sido diferente

Chopped before vacation and off to dry while I'm in Ireland and the UK

The topped branches are growing back nicely! Selective defoliation to allow for better light penetration. Watered with Real Growers Recharge and Fish Sh!t after top dressing with a tiny bit of Happy Frog fertilizer. Will begin flowering nutrients once she starts throwing more hairs. Continuing to LST and get those lower sites growing!

Week 9 and the Zkittlez are starting to show first real flower signs! Plants drank well over 60L of Nutrients in week 8.

Apple Fritter is doing good. Just switched light to 12/12. Increased nutrition on last solution change. I cut a clipping I am attempting to clone. If all good I will start a diary next week for it. She is growing in a New Level Hydro bucket, under a Spider Farmer SE5000 light. Thank you New Level Hydro, Spider Farmer, and Amsterdam Marijuana Seeds.

Things are pretty easy breezy, since we are keeping it simple! The odd-looking leaf growth is evening out with new growth. The conditions of the environment are pretty ideal, with lots of nutrients in the soil and a little Root Juice to kick off the early vegetative phase. VPD is at 0.57 kPa across the board, and the lamp is hitting with 500 PPFD, while the temperature is at 27 degrees Celsius when the lamp is on and 20 degrees when the lights are off. I do run the lamp at nighttime to avoid high temperature peaks during the daytime in the simplest of ways.
