The bud sites are filling in quickly, excited to see how they develop further. Smooth sailing, easy fun grow. Got a little over 13" tall. Super short, curious to see how much yield she gets.

Week 8 From Seed — Week 3 Flower (Report labeled Week 9, corrected here for clarity) Before we dive in, quick recap so new eyes understand what’s happening here. ⸻ 🔁 How We Got Here These are limited genetics — only 750 packs released. We are running pack 268, grateful to have secured them. All plants come from the same line, but we intentionally allowed structural differences through training variations. All training has been low stress, but: • One plant guided more assertively with clamps. • Others shaped gently. • One allowed more natural vertical dominance. Same genetics. Different structural expressions. Same flower development pace. That’s important context. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment & Room Conditions 📊 Current Conditions • Canopy temp: 27.9°C • Humidity: ~70% • CO₂: 1000+ ppm (lights on) • PPFD: 800 → 1300 µmol/m²/s (size dependent) The room is full now. Dense canopy. But healthy density — not chaotic. ⸻ 🌱 Substrate • Soil EC: 0.91 • Medium temp: ~22.5°C • Moisture sensor reading: ~94% (but dry-down cycles actively implemented) Dry-outs are working. You can see the EC stabilization in the chart — no runaway accumulation. The graph shows controlled feeding and dry-back rhythm. That rhythm is key. They’re drinking well. No signs of stagnation. ⸻ 💡 Lighting Strategy Main Light High intensity, climbing as canopy grows. 🌞 UVA / UVB — 6 Hours Mid-Cycle Purpose: • Mild stress stimulus. • Activation of plant defense mechanisms. • Potential terpene upregulation. • Resin density encouragement. Important: UV is not a magic switch. It is a controlled stress input. We are applying it during peak metabolic activity — that’s strategic. Monitor for: • Leaf tacoing • Excessive stress response • Overly rapid senescence So far? They look stable. ⸻ 🔴 15 Minutes End-of-Day Red Extension We’re adding 15 minutes of red-only at lights-off transition. Theory: • Increased phytochrome conversion (Pfr → Pr) • Faster “sleep signal” • More defined photoperiod closure In practical terms: We’re tightening the circadian signal. Will it radically change yield? Probably not. Will it refine plant rhythm? Possibly yes. And importantly — it’s controlled, not excessive. ⸻ 🔦 Undercanopy Lighting This is significant in the setup. Benefits: • Lower bud site development • Reduced larf • Improved airflow • More uniform photosynthetic distribution In a dense canopy like yours, this matters. The under-shots shows you good structural spacing — not suffocated. ⸻ 🌿 Plant Structure & Development All plants are: • Strongly branching • Aggressively stacking • Frost levels increasing rapidly The trained plant: • Slightly smaller • More guided architecture • Same flower vigor Defoliation response: They bounced back as if nothing happened. That’s a sign of: • Strong root system • Adequate nutrition • Stable VPD • No lingering stress You can see it in posture. Leaves are praying. Internodes are active. No droop. ⸻ ❄️ Frost Report Resin production is accelerating. Macro evidence confirms: • Early density increase • Even coverage • No patchiness This stage (Week 3 Flower) is foundation frost. Real explosion comes mid-flower. But the signal is there. ⸻ 🌡️ Driver Temperatures & Heat Consideration Measured: • 35.5°C • 32.6°C • 28.6°C Driver heat does contribute to tent ambient load. However: Our canopy temp (27.9°C) suggests ventilation is compensating properly. Watch: • Upper canopy hotspots • Uneven temperature zones So far, no visible heat stress response. ⸻ 🌿 Room Visual Impression The room is full. Not messy full. Intentional full. Canopy is closing. Bud sites are forming evenly. Structure is defined. It looks alive. ⸻ 🌱 Nectar Drip They are on fire. • Stacking. • Frosting. • Branching aggressively. The trained one expresses structure differently, but flower quality trajectory is matching. They are going to be large plants. You can see it in internode strength and stem diameter. This is not a timid run. ⸻ 📅 Why We Call It Week 3 Flower Even though report header says Week 9 from seed: We are in: • Week 8 from seed • Week 3 of 12/12 flower cycle Flower count is based on photoperiod switch, not seed age. Clarity matters. ⸻ 🙏 Gratitude Section To the OGs who’ve been here since the beginning. To the newcomers discovering the journey. To the skeptics. To the critics. To the silent watchers. To the @GrowDiaries platform it self. To the GrowDiaries community. To the sponsors. To the supporters. To the haters. If you are here, you are part of this. Gratitude doesn’t discriminate.

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.

Hi all, Grow area updates: Nothing major far as area is concerned added Some yoyo’s to the net so it can be raised and lowered easily now. I also noticed I had been following ghp feeding schedule for a recirculating system when mine is drain to waste. Didn’t have in adverse effects on the plants at all actually think they loved it tbh. But I’ll notice the ppm difference on these future updates. I was using way more nutrients then what was needed. Now I get to save money lol. Blue dream auto: Def has the faint smell of flowering cannabis now. The branching power from the mixing blue dream and already branchy plant with the ruderalis is def perfect for a scrog set up when you trying to maximize the your yield off one plant. I had to visit the tent 3 times this week to re tuck her down. Did the last tuck Thursday so what you are seeing from the pics today is three days of growth. Crazy!!!! She sitting at about 900 ppm And that’s with cutting the the grow solution some. Master kush photo: She popped through the net mid this week and hit her first tuck under today. With how well she reacted to the femm job. I went ahead and topped on the new growth on each branch. Her branch structure is way more sturdy then autos for sure. Leaves are bigger as well. One is the size of my palm lol I have big hands so that’s awesome. She sitting at about 800 ppm and getting less bloom solution. I’d also like to add I appreciate everyone’s advice far as set up and temp control. It was above 100°F the last couple days. And tent never got over 85 and as soon as the hotter part of the day was over we where back in the 70’s. Ima smoke one for y’all! 🤘🏾 Until next time #StayKited

Hello folks, been a progressive week. Girls are stretching quiet bit especially the Sativa dominant Stardawgs on the trellis net side. The other side has Blue dream and stardawg. Both look indica dominant as they are squat and bushier than the above 2. Trellis netting for that side should be up by next week. It came in post today so.... Recharge is started in the feed and girls are looking very healthy, I like the smell of it so the girls must too 😇 they get flush once per week. When the things actually start , Will be flushing them twice a week, so technically on every feed. Works out the best ALWAYS !! They are lolipopped and I will be removing any bud sites if they grow back to focus supply to upper part. Week or so more and this should look like a bed of buds 😎 Stay safe, cyall nxt week.

Day 50: Feeding day. As planned, I raised the dosage to 4ml per liter for the 3 base compound and gave each plant 1L. They drank it all. Call me weathercock but I removed the ScrOG netting since it was more of a handicap than anything that helps. I'll continue flattening everything with LST. Everything is looking good. Day 51: Another defoliation today, removing new leaves and smaller budsites. Nothing else to read. Day 52: Video update to show the flat canopy, budsites and how I LST the highest stems and redirected them to the center of the plant to expose the most budsites to the light. Day 53: Feeding Day, still 1L each. No burned tips or anything since last time so the dosage is alright. Day 54: I woke up to 2 of my girls praying to the light god. 50cm is the sweet spot. Day 55: Nothing to read. I don't have a microscope but I'm pretty sure to see the first trichomes :) Day 56: Nothing to read.

A good week for sherberts. I'm doing a comparison to see how the growth is effected by growing them both in a different way. They are both beautiful and seem to love the environment for now. Not overly hungry but I did pot them on with ecothrive charge which has all sorts of goodies in so I guess the soil is good. Food wise they took some fish mix which was mixed to an EC of 1.3 PH 6.2. I was planning to train out for 8 colas but I think I might just flip them now to see what I get. I still have more sherbert beans left to play with in my next grow and I also now have 8 clones from the sherbert too which I'm undecided what to do with. All in all these are easy to grow and ask for not much. The reward so far is 2 very pretty plants. Great job with these @weedseedsexpress.👍 Oh and I snapped a stem while training so she is tapped up and should be good in a few days. Thanks for looking. Stay safe😷 Happy growing🌿🌱🌱

First week of flowering for the girls. We started with some master bloom from Xpert nutrients and continue with master root also from xpert nutrients. We placed a net above the poants to guide some of the taller branches and create a more equal canopy. We defoliated some lower leaves and for the rest it looks quite good, some plants showed a little sign of overfeeding so we lower the dosis this week.

Hello. This is week 1 of flowering. Yes... Just flipped when I took pics earlier. The next trim up will be before the end of week 2... before the resin starts to show I'll take more sucker branches off and trim up some of those fan leaves in the middle for better air movement. And any fan leaf that doesn't get light on the bottom comes off as well. OK. Have Fun. Chuck.

What an absolute monster! 70 Days ago I sown the seeds into the ground and she has become a whole a** 🌲tree! 🌲 She was given Big 6 Micros from Buildasoil and Bio-catalyst from Root-wise today. A few days ago I innoculated the 65 gallon pot with about 100 red wigglers to kick start some life in there and get some nutrient cycling going for the next run. I might have to do a staggered harvest as it's too late for me to comfortably lollipop again! Thanks for reading and take care!

Moin, Die letzte Woche des Grows ist nun vorbei und am kommenden Sonntag werden beide Pflanzen geerntet, die Trichome sind durchgehend milchig und nur vereinzelt bernstein, ich persönliche mag es meistens lieber so als mit einem höheren Anteil an bernsteinfarbender Trichome. Der Calciummangel ging auch noch weiter, aber so kurz vor Ende sollte daraus auch kein großes Problem mehr entstehen. Die letzten 2 Tage gibt es jetzt eine sehr geringe Menge an Nährstoffen und leicht gespült wurde das Medium auch. Bezüglich des Aromas bleibt es bei einem sehr süßen Eiscremearoma mit zwei verschiedenen Ausprägungen der linke Pheno mit einem süßer leicht zitroniger Note wobei das gasige in der letzten Woche doch merklich wenige geworden dafür dominiert um so mehr die süße. Der rechte Pheno behält sein süßlichen Mentholaroma, leider hat mich hier die Blütenentwicklung etwas enttäuscht in direkten Vergleich mit dem rechten Pheno liegen da gefühlte Welten dazwischen. Für die die Ernte werde ich mir vermutlich die besten Blüten aussuchen und den Rest vor der Trocknung einfrieren und zu einem späteren Zeitpunkt weiterverarbeiten. 😄 Ein abschließendes Fazit folgt dann nach der Trocknung und dem cures, ich freue mich schon auf auf Ergebnis! 🍃

3/23: I let them go totally dry. The shortie got flushed for the first time today with about 10 gallons of warm water and Sledgehammer. I fed the big one about 3/4 gallon including terpinator, signal, sweet & sticky, cal-mag, armor si, cha ching, tiger bloom, big bloom, and humic acid. She's nowhere near to ready...but fattening nicely. 3/26: I'll flush the shortie for the second time tomorrow, and maybe water her once more before I harvest her. 3/27: Shortie got flushed for the second time today with about 8 gallons of warm filtered water with Sledgehammer and the big girl got 3/4-gallon of filtered water with signal, terpinator, cal-mag, sweet & sticky, and a little bit of cha ching.

She is nearly done. Now starting to fade naturally as she is on dry amendments. The smell is very nice with long bud structure. Got a good feeling about this one.

She's looking suoer healthy just like her sisters she's got aa couple of burned leafs or something like that I don't know why this is happening because none of my plants have anything like that's,she's being fed the exact same way.apart from that she's very good and developing well.

Ciao ragazzi e bentornati qui per una nuova settimana al Limone 🍋 Ancora 20 cm questa settima e sembra voler continuare!🔝 La pianta numero 1, che è la prima a vedersi nei video, grazie all Lst ha sviluppato diverse apicali ed ora vedremo quante realmente prenderanno il sopravvento La seconda nei video è la numero 3, che anche se avevo accennato anche a lei un po di Lst, ha ripreso una forma tradizionale. Ed ha raggiunto finalmente la sorella n.2 L ultima in fondo nei video invece è la numero 2 che mostra una stupenda, robusta e folta struttura a candelabro. Sono molto contento di come sta procedendo la crescita delle sorelle. Ottimo!!!💪 L odore si fa più intenso ma ancora troppo generale per definirlo. Ora come ora, mi sento di dire aspro🤔 Ho defogliato loro nel giorno 58, giusto po di foglie più grosse che facevano ombra👍 Eh niente ragazzi! Siamo giunti al termine della settimana 9 e siamo CAMPIONI D' EUROPA!!!🏆🥇 GRANDI AZZURRI💙 🇮🇹FORZA ITALIA🇮🇹 Grazie a tutti per aver guardato e restate sintonizzati per nuovi aggiornamenti🙏 Buona settimana e felice crescita 🌱 🌱 🌱

everything is going very well, the girls have developed, we have found a hermaphrodite, what a surprise my colleague got when he found one with eggs, what a scare! I saw a video of a Mexican whose technique consists of breaking the male balls and letting the flower clean and do it every day as soon as new shoots come out, there comes a time when they no longer grow and only the female hairs follow, I will see that That's how it goes, if I can, when I visit the indoor, a photo of the hermaphrodite will be taken, only one of the girls, I don't know if she got stressed or what happened, the others continue to flower normally, big beautiful females, I'm amazed, how many showed my first crop, I see it great what do you think friends
