Grape Ape Cake ! Lineage; Hotcakes (Katsu Bubba Kush X Burnt Toast (from Raw Genetics) X Grape Ape An Exciting New Collab from Katsu Bluebird ! Week 11, & the End of 4 weeks of flowering (30 Days of 12/12) Welcome back to our regular scheduled programming.... Like I mentioned we are officially 30 days into our 12/12 lighting cycle. Now taking into consideration that this is one of the first runs of this particular strain the flower period is partially undetermined, I will be guessing based on Lineage of the parents, & following her closely towards the end to ensure my desired trichome ripeness. Katsu's HotCake's run's Approximately 8-9 Weeks & The Grape Ape run's slightly quicker at 7-8 Weeks You can certainly tell the difference between all 5 plants, I'm very glad I took cuts of everything ! as plants 2 & 3 are certainly the keepers of the bunch.. plant 2 showing some very cool fall colours already (emerson effect hitting strong asf) She is already starting to purple up & smells Very Sweet. My guess is this pheno leans more to the Grape Ape side. As far as plant 3 is concerned I can smell heavy Kush aromas emulating off her already, & based on her flowering structure I believe this pheno leans more Katsu Bubba. but we'll have to wait and see. A Minor amount of leaf plucking this week should be noted.. It will probably be the last time I mess with them, its time to start swelling up. It is my opinion that most of the stretch has been completed & i'm now looking at the final colas minus the couple weeks of filling out of course. As this is the end of four weeks of flower(12/12) Their food will be increased during the next feeding, thus far i've been impressed with the ease of this strain.. I wasn't sure what to expect to be honest but I will say this I was weary of over-feeding but all of them seem to enjoy heavy feedings. Thanks for Reading 🙌 If you have a question or a comment leave it down below otherwise, I Hope You Check in Next Week, Stay Safe out there & Happy Gardening Cariboo

Week 1 - 01/01 to 01/08 2021 HUGE THANKS TO @MARSHYDROLED and @VIPARSPECTRALED! New surge protectors/heavy duty timers/the good cords. The Dark Devil by @Sweet_Seeds is right on track with the Red Poison and Purple Lemonade from my other diaries. The LSD is a little behind but the genetics seems to keep it small if you get the wrong pheno. Will give it a week or so for it to really settle in with a root base before cleaning out my 5gal RootPouch pots from the last grow and getting them transferred into their final homes. I have all my seedlings under the P1500 from Vipar as my veg light for the first few weeks to a month. It's SO nice to not have a blurple anymore, the light is way better in my room and on the eyes. The new diodes had every single seedling grow more in 6 hours than it did in the first 7 days under the blurp LED. The Dark Devil perked right up and threw another set of leaves in the first 6 hours under the new light. I noticed a bit of spotting on the Dark Devil in my other diary so I added some Hydrogen Peroxide to the spray bottle and it cleared up. All four have been getting constant spritzing from the spray bottle to keep humidity up. Excited to see how big i can get the autos under the new lights, will switch over from the Vipar to the Mars by end of week 2/mid week 3 once I transfer them and give them a day or so settle in. Thanks for stopping in! Throw down a like and/or follow so i can return the favour 🙌 -- Check out my Diary of the Year 2020 entry 🙏 https://growdiaries.com/diaries/54258-fastbuds-original-auto-sour-diesel-grow-journal-by-glazedgrow IG: @GlazedGrow CannaBuzz: @GlazedGrow

Hello world, 🇬🇷 the previous week was good,the girls are growing and they were finally transplanted...everything seems OK,I would prefer them to be a bit bigger but they need their time...what I have changed the previous week was the ph of the water...I now adjust it to 6,0...since there's no playing around with nutes I have to play with something... WEEK 4: "WHERE THE GRASS IS GREEN AND THE GIRLS ARE PRETTY..." ☠️Day 22...💧they need to be watered daily,500 ml each time,as the sun dries their soil out...no need for nutes...Just add water and off you go!!!Today it's gonna be hot...37°C...I will have to keep them inside under the Leds cause 37°C is just too high for them...hope the temps drop the following days...I can't keep them inside cause the Leds are just 50W ...way too weak for my girls......I really miss my tent and my HPS...my wife doesn't want it around so now I have to compromise with the sun and the Chinese Leds...🤣 ☠️Day 23...Angie is a bit behind the others...Michelle and Lucy have gained height...generally I would like them to be bigger at this point...we shall see...the weather today is hotter and the temps will reach 40°C... ☠️Day 25...Michelle and Lucy have streched...that's probably because the 3 last days they are inside under low light, due to the heat wave outside...will be training these two shortly...Lucy will be topped and LSTed while Michelle just LSTed...Lucy's tooping will have to wait a bit... I bent over Michelle's stem,at the beginning a little,but shortly after, I was more aggressive to her...she will be fine tomorrow... ☠️Day 26...Michelle has taken LST well and her leaves have already turned up towards the light...the side growth is beginning to turn upwards as well...the other two girls are doing fine... Today I topped Lucy at the 6th node...new side shoots are tiny but I am expecting them to grow vigorously since there is now main stem...I will do some LST to her as well but later on... ☠️Day 27...the temps are back to normal, 25-28°C...the girls are outside and will stay there...I used Enhancer today at ph 6,3,but only on Michelle as I am kind of afraid of it...When I first got it I used it on 2 other plants and burnt them...So I am waiting to see how Michelle will react and then use it on the other girls too... ☠️Day 28...last day of the week,the girls are fine...Michelle took Enhancer well,no signs of whatever,so I will give it to the other two as well...the weather is crazy...it's a bit cold and windy now... So everyone in the community,thank u for watching,see u next week!!☠️

Hello one and all , happy growing. This week I switched to bloom nutes and the girls have reacted well. The Shogun line up has worked a treat , with no issues since the beginning. There have been a few amputees ,as my mainlining adventures have taken me down the broken-stem-rabbit hole. As many of you know these are resilient creatures and have bounced back but not without a major loss of yield , come harvest. I’m at odds with myself as I find it almost impossible NOT to try LST/HST/ tying down etc. Something has to give and eventually I’ll have to be surgical with my treatment of my beauties. Until next time …. Happy growing.

To push the pest resistance test even further (so far, the plants have shown resilience against fungus gnats, thrips, and excessive humidity), it’s getting too risky to allow the gnats to continue affecting my roots. As a test, I sieved fine sand from my garden and spread it over the soil to eliminate the gnats' living space. I gave the plants a good watering before applying the sand, and now I’ll leave it like this for a week. By the end of the week, I plan to repot them anyway, so we’ll see if this method clears up the gnat problem.

And last but definitely not least, Mystery Made 2 starts to fade as well. From now on, not every single week but every single DAY, the colors get more and more intense... I'm totally in love with this grow

At the start of week 8 all 3 girls are showing preflowers! They have started stretching a good amount. I will apply nutrients on day 5 just before I leave for vacation. I added 5ml of Flying Skull Z7 to my reservoir. On day 3 of week 8 I added another 5 gal bucket reservoir for my Blumats, which will work through a siphon to essentially raise my reservoir volume to 10 gal for my upcoming vacation. I defoliated the centers of each plant to improve light penetration and airflow. On day 4 of week 8 I took clones from each Pheno. On day 5 of week 8 I applied weekly nutrients. I also filled up and adjusted the PH of my 2- 5 gal reservoirs in preparation for vacation tomorrow (I adjusted the PH to 5.5 in hopes that it will naturally drift up over the week I'm gone to no higher than 6.5). I wont have much updates until the 15th of April 😳🙏 (I will post pics from my security camera while I'm away)

18 weeks from seed to harvest. Love 34 street seeds, quality genetics for a fair price. These garlic cookies showed no disease or pest issues, no mold or powdery mildew. Easy enough to grow, no surprises, no super stretch in flower, but I would recommend training or SCROG to control them. Pungent Pine is what I am callling this smell, over 800 grams wet weight. They are hanging to dry in my tent as I write this, 60 %RH and about 71 degrees of freedom units! Can’t wait to try it out 🇨🇦❤️🌱😎💨

She grew great. A few problems but all on my end. Everythig was great responded to topping well. Alot of puple leaves and orange hairs. the buds look lovely and smell like mashed blueberries. not incredibly strong but i imagine that will change after a bit of cure. Super happy with the way she turned out. Dry weight coming soon. will definitely be growing this one again soon.

I’m quite surprised as to how well these girls are looking and smelling!! They’re quality genetics but i also believe every strain will provide pros and cons during the grow. This one particularity has been quite the learning experience. Cannabis is quite the resilient plant and I definitely like growing them. As far as this week goes they’re definitely producing more trichomes and resin glands and appears there’s no more stretch from the plant. No more new growth even small amounts hidden within the canopy. I did a little flush earlier this week and it made the tips of what fan leaves turn yellowish so it def means we’re getting close to the end. Prob got another 2 weeks before I fully flush for Atleast a week then pulling them down. The trichs will be the ultimate deciding factor. I’ll pull when i see the first sign as I like more of a heady high than a couch-lock with little to none clear. Well till next week y’all happy growin and hopefully ya had a good thanksgiving

Day 20 of Flower Flowers already nice and frosty. Last of the Bat guano. Going to use Biocanna BioFlores. Going to hit her with 8ml/l and then 4ml/l after that. Very faint discoloring on a couple of leaves.

This week wrapped up the generative two phase or midflower and began the generative three phase. The plants were fed the nutrients listed daily. I like to keep the p and k up high during the first week to twelve days of generative three. This week the weather has been more cooperative but far from ideal. The highs have ranged from mid 70's to 90 degrees f. The nights are running low to mid 60's f with humidity in the 90% range at night. Humidity has stayed somewhat high during the day ranging from 70% to mid 50% a few days only. This weather has really been testing these girls resistance. Plants 1 and 2 have been immune to pm. Plant 3 has responded well to treatment with arber. All the plants got a medium defoliation which helped. Everyone stacked this week. They have all reached their maximum height. I used the height of the tallest 87.5" for the official height. The two shorter plants are 61 and 62 inches.
