Greeting of the day! First of all, thanks to everybody who is engaging and interacting with my diary and myself. I truly enjoy and appreciate you all! The time laps of the first LST is relevant to week 4, but decided to put it here as well for the contrast. For the last week, i have increased watering volumes and put them on regular schedule, and i see pretty massive grow. Jumped from 15 to 35cm in height and thats after the first LST. I am not feeding the girls anything but water with regulated PH. Seems that the soil is rich enough to keep them fed. Today (day 33), ive decided to perform another LST, more radical than the first one. The main stems started to shoot up and it seems that the rest of the body is falling behind in growth, so i bended and twisted around the main columns of 2/3 girls. Is seems that they have reacted extremely positively. I see immediate development of secondary columns (check out the photo right after lst and in 4 hours) Also, I’ve defoliated, well… removed one leaf that I was not able to tuck anywhere. P.S. Oh! got the girls a new fan, specially designed for grow tents. They are happy and so am I. The smell is so nice, if i leave the tent open it fills the room almost immediately. Thanks for stopping by and reading, have a great day and good luck! Will drop updates on the go.

Week 7 Flower Report – The Masterpiece Garden Unfolds 🌱 Introduction Welcome back to the most thrilling chapter of our journey yet! Week 7 of flower is here, and the garden has transformed into a paradise of unique beauty and diversity. Every plant has its own personality, showcasing the results of all the hard work, dedication, and love poured into this run. Let’s dive into the details and celebrate these girls like never before—because they deserve it! 🌸 Plant-by-Plant Breakdown Papaya Zoap The rebel queen of the garden, aiming for the stars with her towering structure. Her dense, frosty white nugs sparkle like diamonds, and her leaves are fading to a stunning yellow hue—a clear sign she’s ready to shine. Her aroma is captivating, leaving no doubt she’s going to be a showstopper. Gorilla Melon Standing tall as the second in command, this beauty is all strength and vigor. Her vibrant green foliage cradles thick, frosty buds that exude a fragrance worthy of her name. A true contender for the title of MVP. RS11 This one’s a frost factory! Long, elegant buds dripping in trichomes, with leaves gracefully fading to yellow as she transitions toward the finish line. Her balanced stature and impeccable structure make her a dream to cultivate. Green Papaya The frostiest of them all, her sugar leaves are curling under the weight of so much resin. Every glance reveals a shimmering coat of trichomes that’s hard to believe. If frost were a competition, she’d already have the gold medal! Mandarin Squeeze Dark and mysterious, this beauty stands out with her rich, deep green tones and impressively dense buds. Her flowers feel like rocks, and her aroma hints at a citrusy explosion waiting to happen. Punch Pie What can we say about this heavyweight? Her large, dense buds are jaw-dropping, and her presence in the tent is commanding. She’s proving to be a genetic masterpiece, delivering beyond expectations. 🌞 Environmental Mastery This week, we’ve begun the slow decline of PPFD to 750, keeping reds and UVs strong while easing back on whites—a calculated move to guide these girls into the final stages. The room’s stats speak volumes: • Temps: 27.8°C with RH at 64.8%. • CO2: 800 ppm for consistent growth energy. • Reservoir: PH 6.16, TDS 791, temp 21°C. • Soil Stats: TDS 669, temp 22°C. Even the fun facts are worth noting: leaf temps are ranging between 26.6°C and 24.2°C, while the LED bars are holding steady at 38°C, and the ICL-300 at 35.6°C. Aero Fan at 23°C and the filter output at 24.7°C highlight the precision and control in this room, all thanks to the incredible TrolMaster ecosystem. 💧 Feeding and Nutrient Update Our transition from organic minerals to a solo mineral approach has been a game-changer. These girls are thriving! Here’s the recipe this week: • System Clean: 0.25 ml/L. • RO Water Conditioner: 0.8 ml/L. • All-in-One Liquid: 1.75 ml/L. • K-Boost: 0.5 ml/L. • Regulator: 0.15 ml/L. This blend is bringing out the best in each plant, delivering unparalleled frost, density, and aroma. The stability of the pH, thanks to minerals, has made life simpler while pushing the plants toward peak performance. 🌟 Reflecting on Progress It’s a joy to walk into this room and witness the results of months of effort. Each plant is delivering on its promise, and the smells, colors, and trichome production are truly next-level. The journey has been demanding, but the rewards are sweeter than ever. The curiosity to see how they finish is at an all-time high! 💬 Shoutouts and Community Love As always, massive gratitude to the sponsors that make this possible: • TrolMaster for precise environmental control. • Aptus Holland for top-tier nutrients. • Cannakan for their unwavering support. • Pro-Mix Soil for a robust foundation. • Seed Banks for the incredible genetics.

Woche 13 ging nur zwei Tage. Für meinen Geschmack war die Pflanzen an Tag 58 ausreichend reif. Zuvor wurden ja schon die Headbuds geerntet, da es kleine Opfer an den Pilz gab. Die letzten Tage verbrachten die Pflanzen bei 48h dauerhafter Beleuchtung und abschließenden 12h Dunkelheit. Ob eines von beiden einen positiven Effekt hatte lässt sich nicht klären aber kaputt gehen, kann davon nicht viel und ich kann Argumente für beides nachvollziehen, von daher kombinieren wir mal beide Varianten. Alles in allem war es jeden Tag eine Freude das Zelt zu öffnen, zu sehen wie die Blümchen sich entwickeln und sich von ihrem Duft betören zu lassen. Da die Gesetzeslage es so möchte, werden nur 250g für den Konsum im Cannatrol getrocknet und gecured. Somit sollten wir rechnerisch bei 50g Trockengewicht auskommen. Der Rest landet in einem Wurmkomposter, um zumindest die aufgebrachte Energie nicht ganz zu verlieren. Bleibt Sauber! 💚🍀🌍

⚡️⚡️ Instant Organic Feeding starts here!⚡️⚡️ Hi Growmies~! This lady also hasn't fed with top dress for 3-4 weeks now Just feeding home made veg. nutrient. No Cal/Mag, or other nutrients were added, and no PH. I am going to add sea salt one time of feeding with nutrient, while she is in transit to flower to support macro & micro nutrients INSTANT FEEDING ORGANIC! Let's get it !! [ FEEDING 7TH WEEK on 9-10 week strain ] - 60ml / 1 Litter VEG Liquified dry nutrient (HOME MADE) - 1 feeding (pinch of Sea Salt/Gallon with Veg nutrient) 1 Corinthians 10:26 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- [WEEKLY NOTES] 9/18 I've been noticing some stress in the plants lately. They haven’t had any Sea Salt, and I'm seeing a few issues: 1. Small pot and root zone stress 2. Some nitrogen deficiencies 3. Magnesium deficiency I’ll be addressing these issues in the next 2-3 days using only organic methods. I’ll start recording from day one to document the process. Remedy 1. Sea Salt – 1/4 gram per liter during feeding 2. Home Cultivated Live Microbes - 5-10ml / 1 Litter 9/19 Last 4 pictures are taken 9/19 @ 12~12:20PM I could wait more, but just want to feed now while she is in transit. 10ml / 1 LItter was mixed and gave @ 12:23PM on 9/19 I am hoping to see stress releaf in 24 hours at least.. 9/19 2ND UPDATE @ 6:30PM 2 Pictures were taken. It wasn't the pot being too small, but found out pot caucer was too fit and it was holding full of water..; This plant seems to stopped light green leafing a bit and inter vein darkening has started this morning until giving Microbes. 6 Hours later seems to have stopped or came back to normal color a bit. 9/20 At 6 AM, things look pretty much the same as they did last night at 6 PM, which was about 6 hours after the microbe feeding. The darkening of the leaf veins seems to have stopped, and the lighter green leaves have stabilized as well. Since this plant is bigger than the one in SSKNF Grow #3, it might take a couple more days to fully recover compared to Grow #3. 9/21 Last day of the week, and just one more to go. I'm optimistic that the plant is bouncing back, though I realize I could have given her a bit more attention earlier on. Now that she’s recovering, I’m looking forward to seeing how she progresses from here!

Hola amigos! Les damos la bienvenida a una nueva actualización, para ser exactos, trece días. Hubo un error en el smartphone y perdí las fotografías que tenía de los primeros siete días información etc. 💩 De todas maneras, esto está genial! Los primeros siete días fueron realmente lentos, yo fui paciente y ella lo agradece. En las fotos se detalla las fechas desde el primer brote el día 13 de Febrero, los cotiledones se asoman por primera vez en el mismo momento, la ultima foto subida es del 25, el video del dia 26 de Febrero. Estas chicas son rápidas! Días totales desde brote hasta el video: 13. Riego: 200ml cada 3 días, alejados del brote. Ph: 6.3-6.4 EC: 440 020+/020- HR: 80% 5+5-. Manta térmica 24x7 con plato. . !! .19 horas de luz: 2 x TS600, 90 Watts 5+/5- LATERALES. !! .11 horas de luz: 1 x 100Watts CENTRAL. !! . La idea es tener un pico de luz asimilando la naturaleza pero sin dejar de lado los soportes laterales, la luz central se enciende 5 horas después de los laterales y se apaga 3 horas antes de que estos se apaguen. Iremos intensificando a medida que las plantas se desarrollen. es momento de comenzar un lindo proyecto y aquí estamos 🙌 😏 !! Un gran saludo y mucho animo en sus proyectos, no dejemos de crear! 🙌🙌

WEEK 5 START OF DAY 29 ⭐️NUTRIENTS USED THIS WEEK⭐️ Front Row AG Si .5g per gallon Front Row AG Part A 2.9g per gallon Front Row AG part B 2.0g per gallon Front Row AG Phoszyme .4g per gallon Front Row AG Bloom 2.3g per gallon Front Row AG CleanUp .2g per gallon FLUSH NUTRIENTS Canna PK13/14 60ml per 10 gallons GH CalMag 6ml per gallon End of week 5 I flush the plants with 1.0EC solution of Canna PK13/14 and CalMag. This is also done at end of week 2. I believe it kickstarts the flower phase and continues stalled growth that can happen at end of week 5 going into week 6. This week I am starting to see all around growth come to an end. I’ve implemented a trick over the last couple years that seems to work well. Along with the swell that takes place the last few weeks of flower we are gonna try and boost flower production a bit as well 😁. Thanks for all the likes and especially the comments. I’ve got a few huge shout outs coming the way of a few growers for next weeks update. See you then!

17.10.25 after checking the trichomes with my smartphone microscope I was glad to see enough milky ones to chop those two remaining plants and clear the balcony. I wet trimmed everything down to the nugs for a quick drying process and since these plants had little spots of powdery mildew despite relentless spraying all of this harvest Will be pressed for rosin as soon as possible. 30.10.25 Flowers are pressed to rosin details in the smoke report. The fresh press is now whipped on jars and curing in the fridge 31.10.25 flower tested 16% THC with Purpl Pro

Last week the weather outside the window was terrible - it was raining and fog. This also affected the harvest - one cola was affected by mold! I managed to avoid extensive damage and I lowered the humidity in the tent. We continued, there was very little time left until the finish line.

Week 1 of flowering. These plants recovered quickly since the last defoliation. Probably gonna do some light defloration on day 14. Feeding with an npk ratio of 5-5-10. Using molasses, humic acids, amino acids, silica and kelp as a compliment. I'll cut out Silica and kelp around day 14. Greenhouse feeding Short flowering 663ppm PK booster 139ppm Calcium 260ppm

@MephistoGenetics, Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. This is my second cultivation ever and it will be fun to try a bigger space than my closet grow. First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of ​​3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable environment in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 10 pcs 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. But there are no cultivation rooms to be displayed here, so I continue with what is most important. Today I have put my seeds in paper towel and hope the seeds have germinated within a few days. I am very excited to see how the new growroom will work and how this Illuminauto 21 - Sour Crinkle will turn out. Illuminauto 21 - Sour Crinkle (Grape Crinkle x Sour Crack) Two of our fastest and frostiest varieties collide to make a sweet and sour delight! Expect super frosty, compact nugs that won't be a toke for novices. Destined to be a great strain for extraction work too! Plant size - Small - Medium Cycle time - 60-65 days from sprout Indica/Sativa - 80/20 Frost level - Extra Ridiculous https://www.mephistogenetics.com/product-page/illuminauto-21-sour-crinkle ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. 2017-08-21.

Hello to you who read my diary, I just want to say that I am pleased that you have chosen to check in with me and in my diary.

Added pics and video. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-07.

Wow, I had so much fun growing this. I wasn't even going to grow this at first. I planted it alongside 2 11l pots and a 20l and knew I'd run out if space but thought I'd put this 5l in the tent and experiment, but it's been my favourite so kept it. I never had much experience, tried one outdoor grow last year that flopped a bit so invested in an indoor set up and I'm happy I did, it's been worth it and can't wait to get started again. I took a real laid back approach, no nutrients, little LST and just let it do it's thing. Had some issues at first with stretching and then adjusted too much and it started bending. But it recovered well and just so excited for my real first harvest. Can't wait to try it.

Hallo zusammen 🤙. Sie wächst sehr schön und macht keine Probleme.
