Place your seat backs and try tables in their upright and locked position Mexican Airlines is prepared for take off!!!👍 She's bursting at the seams and in pre-flowering stretch (does pre-flowering count as flowering or vegetation?). Gave her some recharge over the weekend and she LOVED it, major growth within 24 hours. I'm doing my first LST with her and not really sure what I am doing, but it looks good to me. Feel free to comment with any suggestions.

Chance Of A Lifetime Greenhouse Seeds Wonder Pie Week 7 18th June 2020 Okay so I will start off with the good part of the week so as not to shock you too much..... Last week I mentioned how I needed to "feed" the Living soil I'm growing in and this week I got stuck into it I did a run of worm tea straight from my worm farm. I then filled the bucket with rainwater and added in some Blackstrap Molasses (Vid 1) Then in went some Greenhouse Feeding "Enhancer" and Seaweed solution Then once that was all mixed in I added some "Dr Greenthumbs High Tea" and threw in a few airstones and starting the bubbling process which will take aprox 48 hours. The Purpose of this Byodynamic "TEA" that I'm brewing is to provide essential microbial feeds to the living organisms within my soil in the form of natural sugars and starches etc. I also chopped up a fresh piece of Aloe vera and let it soak in a bit of water for a few days that I was planning on feeding to the Girls............ Now for the Part that is both upsetting to me and to be honest very bloody Disapointing!! 😠 Two of the three Wonder Pie Plants have Lots of Male Balls developing and are Fucking useless hermoprodites 💩 The 3rd Plant so far has no sign of Pollen sacks developing but if it Does then all of my hard work to date will be for Zip because I will be pulling it up just like I did to the other two 😢 So there you have it 7 weeks of Good growth not to mention Energy costs etc down the drain for those two plants and if the third one goes Hermie too I'll be out of the Running to win that trip to Amsterdam 😢 Because the other Female plant I have growing in the same tent (Dinafem Cheese) has not shown any signs of Hermie traits I'm putting this one down to VERY unstable and unreliable genetics so if you are growing this strain Wonder Pie keep a good eye on it once flowering has been initiated as I got lucky and saw them early but if left to grow unnoticed just one rogue pollen sack could seed your entire crop with unusable hermophroditic shit seeds . Just in case I get lucky and the final plant stays Fully Female , I went ahead and added in 30grams of the Bio Bloom Mix to her soil and watered it in . Well thats my story for the week Not the one I was wanting to tell but shit happens and it happens to me on a regular basis 😖 If I dont update again from here you will know that it went hermie and got destroyed . Thanks to all who have followed and liked so far I really appreciate it. Good luck everyone If I dont make it past this point

7/2 Last week it was extremely hot (80's-90's) with cold nights. We had a severe thunderstorm last night and it's raining like crazy today. I didn't spend time in the garden as it was pouring. However I defoliated yesterday briefly. I had maybe a half dozen leaves yellow and die a couple days after the organicide application. They were mostly the largest oldest fan leaves most infected with pm. A couple smaller interior leaves yellowed and died as well but they were the leaves most infected. I assume that's normal. As I defoliated I noticed my first aphid of the season. I saw a few dead ones the organicide killed and a couple that were alive. Aphids aren't a big deal. They'll be evicted soon enough. I haven't seen one spot of pm though since the application. Maybe a little on a dead leaf but it seems to be working good. Didn't take pictures today but needed one to update the diary. Trying to upload videos but they take forever. 7/3 Ridiculously hot all last week. Extremely hot yesterday then a severe thunderstorm but it cleared to 90 degrees with 90%rh. This environment is a fungal nirvana. Still a slight smell from the organicide. I'm glad I used it though. I threw away some more leaves but this is the time that starts happening anyway. Before the stretch. With the ideal conditions I saw WPM rear it's head again. Only this time the organicide seemed to still have a residue. The PM only infected the super old biggest fan leaves and a few tiny tiny leaves on the very interior of the plant. I didn't know I had aphids but I've found a few dead on the underside of leaves I defoliated. So it seems to be working. My plants are growing towards the sun (partially due to my tarps which I need to be legal) which make airflow harder to maintain. My dad gave away my pallets this year. I had planned to put bags and supports on pallets with some sort of wheel so I could spin them. Oh well I'll do that next year in my new location. I have also found moth holes in couple leaves so BT it will still be needed. If videos didn't take so long to upload I would have a bunch. Happy growing. 7/5 Watered lightly (as it had been 90's) before feeding three gallons to the garden. Noticed some telltale leafhopper signs on a 9lb kush. The organicide seems to be doing a decent job of keeping PM at bay. The blueberry is now the worst it seems. I'm planning on another application before I try anything heavier. The fishy smell is now totally gone. Plants seem healthy and are a nice dark green. I have had some problems that have effected my ability to fully care for my girls. I have some defoliation I need to do. I also see moths sometimes in the morning plus the pm and the random munch. I guess that's to be expected outside but I need to get on top of this shit. I also have more LST I could be doing. 7/6 Rained all night and still off and on. Can't see any pm but I've found a few spots on the blueberry that could be septoria. I'm going to hit them either tonight or tomorrow with the organicide and if it doesn't work I may try a sulfer based fungacide. Took a few pictures. I need to defoliate as well. 7/7 Uploaded some duplicate pics accidentally. If I could've created the perfect environment for fungal infections I don't think I could've done better than yesterday. Hence the organicide. I was surprised it wasn't pronounced and only a little here and there. Also saw leaf hopper and pillar damage so hopefully this will straighten that out. Blueberry seems weak in it's stalk. I'm not sure if the wind is blowing it against that hard metal circle around it. It may have septoria. If it does I'll have to switch to something different or junk the plant. 7/8 This sucks. I can see signs of leaf septoria on the GDPs. This is definitely not a strain for the Maine climate. It's not resilient enough against diseases. This year has been particularly bad with 40 degree temp swings and rain then bright hot sun. I couldn't engineer better conditions. I appears senescence starts at the same time looking back over the past four years. However maybe that's just the life cycle of the earwigs. Oh yeah. I raked the inside of the grow bag with my hand and AT LEAST a half dozen earwigs came out RIGHT FROM THE SOIL IN THE BAG. I dealt with these prehistoric bastards last year and lost half my harvest. They eat other insects but the spread disease like crazy and they DO eat your plant while leaving behind the worst bacteria and plant disease. I have research to do. Like I said. This sucks. I'm changing locations next year but I need some help dealing with the septoria and the earwigs or I'll be fucked again. I defoliated anything that looked suspect. Still need to improve airflow.

🌸 Eternity Cup • Week 4 Flower • Runtz Phenos 1 to 5 Welcome back to the garden, my dear growers! This week, we enter Week 4 of Flower, and the energy is shifting — it’s subtle, like a foggy winter morning where everything is still, but alive with quiet anticipation. Our beloved Runtz girls — phenos 1 through 5 — are beginning to reveal themselves fully, forming those early floral structures (the “ears,” you know the ones 🌱💚), and each one is expressing her beauty in unique, yet strikingly similar ways. This kind of uniformity only proves how stable and powerful these Zamnesia genetics truly are. They are fulfilling the scrog like queens — compact, bushy, and ready for the next phase. This week, I noticed a slight decoloration in the leaves — just a whisper of pale green — and it felt like the perfect moment to adjust the feeding to bring out that lush vibrancy again. We’re now running the following dosages in our reservoir: • Regulator: 0.15 ml/L • System Clean: 0.25 ml/L • RO Water Conditioner: 0.8 ml/L • All-In-One Liquid: 2 ml/L • Plagron Green Sensation: 1 ml/L This blend brings us to an EC of 2.225 and a pH of 6.07 — right in the sweet spot. Let’s see these ladies rise up and glow 🌞 Since it’s been a little cold — temps started the week around 16°C and are now slowly climbing up to 23°C, with a humidity of about 50%, this gives us a VPD of around 1.50, which is still looking great considering the lower ambient conditions. CO₂ is sitting at 1000+ ppm, and light intensity is cruising around 550-600 PPFD, which we’ll increase in the coming weeks to match their needs as they bloom. The Autopots keep our medium at 53% moist like clockwork, but I’ve added a water heater to the reservoir — aiming to gently raise soil temperature by warming the solution. That 16°C in the substrate wasn’t doing us any favors, so let’s bring the roots a little cozy love. Everything we do, we do with intention and care. Visually, this week feels like a quiet fog has settled — like watching the garden through a soft lens. The atmosphere is calm, with the girls standing strong and steady under the ICL 300s and the Model Ones, which are doing a phenomenal job creating the perfect stage for this show. Let’s take a moment to thank this beautiful community — the lovers, the learners, the OGs, the curious ones just passing by — your presence means everything 💚 Massive gratitude to Zamnesia for the incredible genetics, Zamnesia, Plagron and to Grow Diaries for hosting this Eternity Grow Cup. And of course, deepest thanks to all the sponsors making this magic possible: Aptus Holland, Grove Bags, TrolMaster, ThinkGrow LEDs, Promix, Cannakan, FOG and Ziggy Papers — your support grows more than plants, it grows stories, friendships, and futures. P.S. Before we wrap it up for the week, I just wanted to add a note about one of the biggest tasks we tackled — the defoliation. It was time. The girls had grown into a dense jungle of love and leaf, and it was clear they needed more room to breathe. More airflow, more light. More photons reaching deep into their hearts. That’s what we aim for. So, leaf by leaf, gently, carefully — with respect for each one — I went in. Four, maybe five hours of focused silence (with my jam on the back ground), removing what needed to be removed. It was a lot. And as I moved through them, it became clear: the Scrog net, too, had done its part. But now? It was just in the way. These girls are so compact, so thick, so full of presence and power — they can hold themselves. So, I took the bold move. I freed them. No more net. Just them, as they are, open to the light and thriving on their own terms. It was a beautiful moment — one I wanted to share with you here, just quietly, before we say goodbye for now. 🌬️ Until next week — stay warm, stay growing, and let the fog roll gently through your garden.

So got the net in place this week and started doing my ScrOG. Also did a bit of FIMing and some LST to help speed things up a bit. So far the weaving hasn't been as easy as I was told it be some ive been using some soft twist ties to help keep them in place. Going to veg and weave for another week or so before I switch it to flower. I was told you have to continue weaving for 2-3 weeks into flower but im worried that'll stress the plant out so if anyone that reads this knows other wise, comment below. Increased the feed from 1 liter to 2 liters because I wasn't getting any run off. Now I'm getting 10% run off every watering and I've been able to keep my run off ppm to less then 100 ppm above feed. So far I'm really like working with coco and don't see myself going back to soil unless it's outside plants. The environment has been fairly stable the last week with outside temperature droping. Had a spike in humidity yesterday because it got up to 75% humidity outside where I live. Luckly when that happened my tent only went up to roughly 67% but it's slowly dropped down and then stopped at 62%. There calling for another heat wave this week with it reaching up to almost 40c again for a couple days.... can not wait for summer to be over. I'm a ginger so I'm more of a autumn and spring kind of guy and plus this heat is making it difficult not only for this plant but also the ones I started seeding a few weeks back. Got so hot that they stopped growing for 3 days, 2 died and 3 got burned a bit. So far this 300w SE-3000 Spider-Farmer light is really rocking it. Great coverage, adjustable and detachable ballast have made this a easy grow even with the mad heat. Definitely going to look at the SE-5000 light that runs at 450w or the SE-7000 light that runs at 650w for my next light in the 4x4 tent. Next go around I'm going to try this light in a 2x2 tent I have that I use for germinating. Well that's all for now so happy growing everyone.

Our Permanent Marker from Zamnesia has responded very well to the application of the techniques, it has started the flowering phase very well and is preparing to prepare our gifts. ** Remember that we are growing a plant worked with the techniques indicated and another left to grow without pruning to preserve its speed; in the previous/next diary you will find the other plant of the same variety. Here we are talking about a very effective Main Lining, a bit difficult at the beginning but now very successful. Generally speaking, it is performed like this: first topping cut at the 2/3rd internode maximum, the plant is allowed to continue for another three internodes and then topping again. The lateral branches can be worked with topping again but I recommend doing it only if the plant is responding well. We are in a 100% organic configuration, the soil is recycled Promix + 1/3 fresh soil + 10% Perlite + RQS Mycorrhizae Mix (4 g in the mix, 1 g under the small fiber pot). We are fertilizing with // 1 ml/l Power Roots - 1 ml/l Pure Zym - 1 ml/l Sugar Royal - 3 ml/l Alga Bloom - 1ml/l Power Buds We sprayed 5 ml/l Vita Race Foliare once a week. For all the info https://plagron.com/ All nutrients are available from Zamnesia: https://www.zamnesia.io/it/531-growshop/476-fertilizers We always have RQS's excellent mycorrhizae running through the soil. https://www.zamnesia.io/5778-mix-micorrhiza-easy-roots.html Try this variety, it is a top strain of recent years very high level of thc ---- // https://www.zamnesia.io/it/12508-zamnesia-seeds-permanent-marker.html Brief description of Zamnesia // Here is a good opportunity to enrich your genetic library with another award-winning variety: Permanent Marker was crowned Strain of the Year 2023 by Leafly, thanks to its intense aromas, high levels of THC and its physical vivacity. Originally created by JBeezy and Seed Junky Genetics, our team managed to secure a cutting of this modern top cultivar, so you can grow it comfortably at home, whether indoors, outdoors or in a greenhouse. Permanent Marker fits perfectly in any environment! The whole world of growing and more is at Zamnesia: just take a look at the site and you will find "all the best that nature has to offer" in various shapes and colors. -- // www.zamnesia.com

Sour Hound is stretching for the moon. She's the tallest plant I've ever grown so far!! Just starting the flowering stage now. I can't wait to see how she yields. I backed down a little on the Recharge this week, but still giving twice the suggested amount. Also still giving her Mammoth P. Will start with MegaCrop (Greenleaf) nutrients later this week. 👍

Due to winter and bad isolation in the house I struggle to keep it around 18 C at night and 22 during the day. Not ideal for this stage but I can't do much more for now. NCH is described by Memphisto as "rampant seedlings stage" I would confirm that. Her side branches grew 2cm/1inch today... I think she is waking up

Welcome to week 3 of flower for these fine ladies! As the stretching period comes to and end in about a week or so I'm excited to see the plant's develop their flowers. Some of the plants have already developed quited the frost for their age and as the cycle continues its just going to get more pronounced. Some of the plants are giving off a faint smell now mostly the Banana Smoothie smelling of cream and bananas so far. Overall I'm really pleased with what's going on so far and can't wait for further development of the flowers! Huge shout out to both Hidden Vault Genetics as well as @MarsHydroLED for all the work they put in to make growing a breeze Extra special shout out goes to all my followers and people who stop into the diary alike. Keep inspiring to grow! -The Projexx Day#15F Ladies continue their stretching, will be looking to remove some leaves to open the plants up soon. Day#16F Watered ladies 4L each at 550PPM. Things are moving along as the plants keep stretching like crazy Day#17F Ladies are producing more and more size on their cotton balls while stretching up and stacking hard. Day#18F Ladies are producing quite the frost levels for their age. Watered 4L each at 550PPM. Day#19F Pictures N/A. Plants continue to stretch and stack. Day#20F Ladies look like their slowing down on their stretch hopefully haha. Watered ladies 4L each at 550PPM. Day#21F The plants are still stretching abit while putting mass on their flowers slowly. Wont be long till we see some giant flowers covered in trichomes! Recap: Things went very well this week, some of the plants are starting to put out a smell and everyone's pumping trichomes like crazy! With about a week or so left on the stretching period I will be looking to place my secondary nets very very soon. I'm looking forward to seeing what the plants smell like and how they continue to develop their flowers!

Week 10, so from today I stopped watering the Gelato Cookie D'ohpe and on Saturday no more light as well. Sunday is harvest day finally. Not much changed, I raised up the water with 25ml so the Purple Punch gets 200ml 2 x a day. That's all, since last week I started giving 13 hours darkness and 11 hours light and from Monday will be 12/12 after I harvested the Gelato Cookie D'ohpe and I can use the tent only for her. Fertilization will happen on the same days. Sunday fun day, Gelato Cookie D'ohpe is harvested. Purple Punch left alone. From tomorrow I will switch the light schedule 12/12. End of the week Purple Punch is 43 cm.

First day of flower!! Already beginning to see pre flowers before the flip but too small for any real identification. Been using kombucha and humic acid to lower pH without adding nutrients and it's been working. Water schedule has been about once ever 3 days. Each plant takes about .1 gal of water. Need about 2.5 gal to water all 22 plants. Nutrients are still in the 2:1:2 ratio for npk. Adding liquid food every other feeding with recharge in 1/3 recommended dose... The HP3 is looking very beastly. Fat indica leaves. Thick stems. Quick growth. Stem rubs reveal spicy hash flavors. Similar to black pepper. Excited to see how the flowers turn out The rainbow belts has been very easy. They need a lot of water so it's been hard staying ontop of that. Also the 1 gal fabric bag I'm using is much taller than the others so it's hard to water it fully. Ant looks good otherwise. ZB2 is a floppy sativa leaning plant. Kinda spindly. Definitely needs better support and training than I am giving for this pheno hunt. Gonna need a stake to support these for sure. Very thin stems. Short and stocky plants that didn't stretch much even with less than optimal light at the beginning. Maybe perfect candidate for cannbonsai

ppm at 1100 Second flush 3 days after first because ppm's were still rising after each day. Brought ppm down to 850 for second round of defoliation at day 49. I wanted to do it at day 42 but I didn't want to stress her more after me being away for 12 days.

Woah. She just keeps on gaining height. I remember readin somewhere that when grown in 11l pots they’ll only get to about 30cms - but that’s such misinformation 😂 that’s why I love learning from experience, even though the internet is a great source to gather information from. Last week I discovered some bronze spots on her leaves - and they haven’t disappeared yet. I suspected a calmag deficiency, so I started giving her more of it. I don’t care if the damage done doesn’t go away - I just don’t want it to get worse. 06/11: Fed her. It seems like she empties her pot every second day now. I usually feed her until runoff - and I feed her a lot. Someone suggested that I feed her less, so I’ll see how that goes. Maybe that’ll make some nutrients more available to her - I don’t know. Also I found a sticker for my desktop computer that I never used (I hate stickers) and I thought it would look well on her pot. It reads “Do Not Disturb” 06/12: She’s looking good - beautiful flowers are popping up here and there. 06/13: Not looking too good today. I don’t know if she was underwatered, but she was all droopy all day. I fed her twice and now it’s just a waiting game to see how she’ll react to that. 06/14: She’s well today! It’s such a game between me and my dramatic plant... I guess she was just acting hangry with me yesterday. 06/15: I thought some of her leaves were looking a bit dark - and possibly tacoing a bit? But it could just be the light. Regardless, I gave a little less grow nute, to back down from nitrogen. 06/16: Nothing new to say. She’s gorgeous and dramatic. 06/17: Fed her today. Can’t wait for her to buds to fatten... I feel so impatient 😂
