23oct snapped a branch have taken it. Keeps growing well considering I keep breaking things 24oct snapped branch seems to have recovered 25oct watering about 1L twice a day. 1 site is pretty perfectly even going 1 way other half is chaos probably from the few breaks. 26oct took plant out and opened pot to see how roots were going(look fine and heaps of space) did some defoliation also cut the snapped branch for clones and its got 3 tops now. Also turned it around in the tent to change where the light source is. 30oct looking a little sad this morning so didn't feed it this morning might need to dry out a bit. Have tucked most branches back down or tied a few loosely that could reach. Canopy is looking pretty even right now Have a house inspection in a couple days so will have to try hide everything better over the next couple days.

16.4.25: As mentioned last week I top dressed with a mix of canna terra plus dry amendments. The soil is very waterlogged and, as a result, has started to grow some mould/mildew on the top layer. I decided to scrape off as much mould as I could, then redress by mixing in some coco and perlite. This should aerate the soil, and prevent the water retention becoming excessive. 23.4.25: I hope everyone had a great 420! HulkBerry has grown significantly since last week. She is now exceeding the perimeter of the 8 Gallon pot. The leaves are looking good to me. It's not too dark, but still luscious in appearance. I have barely given any water, as unfortunately I had overwatered when I top dressed. The top dress was not my usual substrate and, unfortunately, ended up growing mould on the surface. I removed the top soil to take away the mould. Then I replaced it with 2 Inches of Canna coco and perlite 60/40%. I did not add any amendments to this. Nutrients; Cal-Mag amino acids and Ecothrive Biosys. I watered 2 litres yesterday, and today, I am going to LST for the 1st time. It needs to be done ASAP now, before she begins to flower. I'm just aiming to open her up and keep the tops at an even height. I'm happy with this plant her structure is lovely, and uniform. Which I hope to maintain. Thanks for checking out my diary and hanging out 🍃✌️💚😊🌱

Hi Gromies, well sometimes I can be my own worst enemy seems I defoliated ( actually I'll blame the apprentice Urban grow cat 😺) He defoliated a little to much, it's hard to get good help these days! Anyway she got a bit of light burn directly under light bulb area. A mix of to much defoliation & I also turned light up to super lumen setting & being lazy I hadn't hooked the extraction fan & ducting up to the light ( it's an air cooled light shade) pump air from outside tent through sealed light shade & exhaust it outside. I hooked that up & raised the light around 20 cm & all is good now, some burnt leaves. She is bouncing back & grown more leaves. It may have slowed Bud development a little! I changed light cycle to 12.5 hours of darkness 11.5 hrs on to try & kick her into gear , fool her into thinking the season is coming to an end with shorter daylight hours. I may increase dark period a little more bit by bit, experiment a little, I've read of other growers who give plants less light around week 6 till harvest. She is getting a faint lemony smell. Lollipoped some of the smaller secondary branches, any tips low down not receiving much light & don't look like they will get much bigger, other than that I'm leaving her alone, probably just try & seperate any close growing colas so we don't get any Bud rot. Thanks for checking out my diary please leave a comment & some likes would be great so that myself & the apprentice grow cat can progress from apprentice stage 👍😻🙀

Just fed water for the last week, had to dry in a drying rack due to lack of space. Nice flowers. Both plants look very similar but both smell different to each other. Both smell nice. Will update.

Que pasa familia, otra vez actualizo aquí, 3 semana de floración finalizada, hasta aquí es lo que hay estos clones están muy sanos enraizaron de miedo y así andan. Subí dosis de nutrientes importantes para fomentar la floración y potenciar el sabor. Pronto empezaré añadir también o Verd rice y algún Pk duro para engordar las flores. Aunque sean pequeñas las plantas tienen que salir muy buenas flores. Hasta aquí es todo poca cosa más en este proyecto un abrazo y buenos humooos 💨💨💨

No pude terminar el diario. Pero llegué a sacar un par de fotos de la cosecha. Espero tener otra oportunidad con esta variedad porque me encantó. Aunque en mi país es muy dificil de conseguir.

I love the sativa shaped nug-towers! When my plants grow big, I like to grow them until the very end of their cycle! That's why the extended flower period. Video of Measurement of yield: T=Tops(92grams), M=Mids(59.1 grams), L=Lowers(58.6grams) Total: 209.7 grams (1-2 grams worth, was taste-tested prior to scaling.)

Uped lights to 30000 lux today added some mosquito bits as a few fungus gnats have been flying around, should be topping Gelato #1 soon its been really shooting ahead.

With no doubt these plants have not produced much more quantity and density of buds due to the 2 serious mistakes I've made (those who have read the weeks will know what I mean). However, I can say that I am happy with the production obtained given the mistakes made. Between the 2 plants, the one that has produced more and generated the most dense buds has been the Gorilla with the Man-lining technique applied, it has also loosed a bit less weight drying than the non man-lining one. In comparison with the Money Makers with which they have grown the result is the same. Both Gorillas have each produced more than any of the Moneys comparing them 1 to 1. Also buds are a bit dense than the moneys, but none of them is really desde at all. *****ESPAÑOL***** Sin duda estas plantas no han producido mucha mas cantidad y densidad de cogollos debido a los 2 graves errores que he cometido (quien se haya leído las semanas sabrá a que me refiero). No obstante, puedo decir que estoy contento con la producción obtenida dados los errores cometidos. Entre las 2 plantas, la que más a producido y ha generado cogollos más densos ha sido la Gorilla con la técnica de Man-lining aplicada, y también ha perdido un poquito menos de peso en el secado que la otra. En comparación con las Money Maker junto a las que han crecido el resultado es el mismo. Las Gorillas han producido cada una más que cualquiera de las Moneys comparándolas 1 a 1. Así mismo, los cogollos de las Gorillas presentan un pelín más densidad que el de las Moneys, aunque realmente ninguna de las 4 plantas ha generado cogollos densos del todo.

Beginning of week.. I almost started the flush this week.. But no, they need AT LEAST one more week of like a half dose of feedings.. then, I'll begin the flush. But they are both so beautiful! Lol.. So many purples in the ETHOS Cookies.. And the smell.. I can't get over the way she smells! So intense! Gonna be a great smoke for sure! Just don't want to harvest too early.. I did that with the Early Lemon Berry from ETHOS and it got me high.. But it was a very paranoid high.. Like VERY very paranoid hahaha.. I didn't like it.. But it tasted GREAT! But yeah, I harvested a little too early.. Not enough amber trichomes. And with these girls.. I feel comfortable flushing for 3 weeks if needed.. So this week I'm just gonna give them both a half dose (or so) of nutes but keep the sweetener at full power! Lol anyways.. Just (tRyInG tO) keeping these girls happy till the flush! The Mandarin Cookies leaves are beginning to look pretty pathetic.. They fall off pretty easily.. And look like complete shit in most spots.. Just can't wait to get these girls ready to smoke!!! They are getting STACKED! 💪💪💪 Mid week.. Still giving both plants: water, 1/2 feed, water, 1/2 feed, water, etc.. Mandarin Cookies gets watered/fed everyday (mornings) and the ETHOS Cookies gets watered/fed (afternoons usually). They are both looking like they should finish pretty close together. Trichomes are eVeRyWhErE! Seeing quite a few milky/cloudy.. Still quite a few clear tho too.. And almost no amber trichomes.. A couple here and there.. But not enough to even say amber are even forming really. Lol.. So pointless to even bring up.. Not till I see a gang of them.. Or at least a couple on one calyx to say there are some amber lol.. Just my 2 pesos, I guess.. Yet I suck at timing the harvest just right lol.. Still trying to find MY sweet spot.. Meh.. Anyways.. Just look at those pictures!!! Gorgeous colas! Good fucking job on these genetics ETHOS.. Good.. Fucking.. Job... End of week... Wow.. Just.... Wow... These ladies are looking awesome. This next week will be week 9 from 12/12.. Most of the pistils have turned.. Not all.. But more than 50% for sure. They are both looking about the same when it comes to pistils and trichomes.. Just BARELY starting to see some amber coming thru.. Still some clear.. But the next 2 weeks of flushing should give them enough time for the clear to mature a bit and should see more amber by then.. Hopefully not too many.. But I will harvest at the end of this week if they seem to mature too quick for another week.. 1 week of flushing in coco should be plenty.. I just like to overdose these ladies on water at the end.. It really does make a difference in my opinion.. I've even flushed a plant for like 4 or 5 weeks and yeah she looked like shit.. But only the leaves looked shitty.. The buds were still gorgeous as ever and VERY flavorful!.. Anyways.. This is about THIS grow.. These ladies are still loving life.. I have been slowly weaning them into the flush.. Not flushing them completely all at once.. But over a longer period of time so they can still get some nutes in.. But I am happy.. They are happy.. Tomorrow I will begin FloraKleen for both girls... And even run it thru the medium 2 days in a row.. Just to really get EVERYTHING out of the medium.. Then just water as I have been till harvest! Home stretch!!!!... On to the next week!...

she's been filling out nicely over week 7 of flower. Shes put on a lot of weight, requiring me to tie up a few of her branches to support them. still giving her half strength feed and she seems to be more than happy with that, will keep to the same schedule for week 8 which will be the last week before flushing. Unfortunately there are a lot of spaces in between the nodes on the top colas which was due to an excessive defoliation during flower, however it has allowed for more of the lower bud sites and lower branches to receive more light and in turn fill out more than the would have if the top colas were taking all of the light. I will see how detrimental this will be with final harvest weight.

Der erste Outdoor Run wird mit dem Frühling eingeläutet💪🏻 Hoffentlich spielt das Wetter mit und lässt die Ladys gut wachsen. 3 von 4 Samen sind gekeimt. Der zweite StrawberryBanana der nicht gekeimt ist, wurde jetzt nochmal in ein Glas mit Wasser. Wenn der Samen nach 24h immernoch nicht keimt, kommt er weg. Aber diese Chance soll er noch bekommen💪🏻🍀. Die GorillaAuto ist auch noch nicht ganz übern Berg, ich bin aber guter Dinge. Als Ersatz für die StrawberryBanana wurde eine LemonCherryCookies nachgelegt. Drücken wir ihr die Daumen. Die wird dann ein eigene Story bekommen. Die Ladys werden die ersten ca 2 Wochen in relativ kontrollierter Umgebung angezogen. Wenn es in die Endtöpfe geht, geht es für die Ladys nach draußen. Erst etwas im Sonne/Schatten Mix und wenn sie sich dann an die Sonne gewöhnt haben, sollen sie möglichst viel Sonne bekommen und werden minimal verstellt. Zwischen 3 und 4 Tagen nach dem Setzen der Samen haben die Ladys das Licht der Welt erblickt. Möge die erste Woche beginnen🍀💪🏻

I did not top this girl, yet. Her top lowers started catching up to the top so I didn’t want to stop her yet lol. But all in all she’s looking healthy.

En esta sexta semana, el cultivo ha entrado en la ventana crítica de maduración bioquímica. Una vez finalizada la consolidación estructural, la planta ha redirigido el flujo de carbono hacia la ruta del ácido mevalónico y la ruta MEP/DOXP, optimizando la síntesis de precursores de cannabinoides y terpenos en los tricomas glandulares capitados-pedunculados. 2. Elicitación y Priming Inmunológico (Evento Crítico) Se ejecutó la tercera y última aplicación de Ácido Salicílico (AS) a una concentración de 100 ppm mediante fertirriego radicular (riego manual único). * Mecanismo de Acción: La aplicación radicular de AS actúa como una señal exógena que mimetiza un ataque de patógenos biotróficos, activando la cascada de señalización de la Resistencia Sistémica Adquirida (SAR). * Respuesta Fisiológica: Esta señalización induce la expresión de genes relacionados con la patogénesis (Proteínas PR) y, colateralmente, sobreestimula la producción de metabolitos secundarios como mecanismo de defensa abiótico. * Objetivo: Maximizar el contenido de resina y compuestos volátiles antes de la fase de lavado, aprovechando el "priming" para fortalecer la pared celular y la densidad de los exudados glandulares. 3. Dinámica Nutricional y Balance Iónico Con la transición hacia la madurez, el manejo de la solución nutritiva se ha ajustado para prevenir antagonismos: * Balance P-K: Se mantiene la intensidad en el aporte de potasio (K^+) para soportar el transporte de fotosintatos (sucrosa) desde las hojas fuente hacia las flores (sumideros). * Control de EC y Dry-backs: Se aplican estrategias de Crop Steering con secados controlados del sustrato de coco para aumentar la presión osmótica, lo cual, en sinergia con la elicitación, favorece el estrés generativo. * Monitoreo: El lixiviado se mantiene bajo vigilancia estrecha para evitar la acumulación de sulfatos y asegurar que el balance entre cationes 4. Gestión Climática y VPD * VPD Óptimo: Se ha mantenido un rango de 1.2 a 1.5 kPa. Este diferencial de presión de vapor permite una transpiración eficiente, asegurando que el flujo masal de Calcio llegue hasta los cálices superiores, evitando necrosis apicales internas. * Temperatura del Agua: El control a 21°C en el tanque de solución madre ha sido fundamental para mantener niveles óptimos de oxígeno disuelto y prevenir el estrés térmico radicular, factor que podría interferir con la señalización de la ruta SAR activada por el AS. 5. Estado Fenológico Visual La morfología observada en los ejemplares muestra una senescencia controlada de estigmas (comenzando la oxidación en un 15-20%) y una arquitectura de cogollo "espigada" pero densa, característica de una alta eficiencia fotosintética y una correcta gestión del DLI (Daily Light Integral). La cobertura de tricomas es profusa, con una turbidez que indica el inicio de la degradación de precursores hacia formas ácidas de fitocannabinoides.
