Seedsman Seeds Germination Report - Run 01: The White OG Journey Kickoff to Germination: The Start of Something Great! Welcome to the beginning of this adventure with The White OG feminized seeds from Seedsman Seeds. Excitement is in the air as we’re searching for strong, resilient plants, and this journey has all the best tools and tips. Starting with five seeds, we’re aiming for a solid beginning and maximum potential. Let’s explore every step in detail to make this grow as robust as it can be! Germination Process: Tools of the Trade TheCannaKan: The Ultimate Germination Gadget I’m thrilled to share my love for TheCannaKan, a little germination wonder! This tool is essential for any grower who wants to start their seeds with precision and care. I noticed rapid results in just 24 hours, with the seeds showing signs of life. At about 32 hours, I transferred them to the Root Riots, which brings us to the next exciting stage. Why I Love TheCannaKan: • Quick Results: Seeds sprouted rapidly, minimizing wait time. • Consistency: Keeps moisture levels optimal for uniform germination. • User-Friendly: Simple yet effective for both new and experienced growers. Root Riots and Their Role in Root Development After sprouting, I placed the seedlings into Root Riot cubes under a dome. Root Riots are fantastic for stabilizing young plants, providing an airy and nutrient-friendly environment that promotes robust root growth from the start. Benefits of Root Riots: • Root Aeration: Soft yet structured, these cubes support root expansion. • Moisture Retention: Holds just the right amount of water for growing seedlings. • Enhanced Root Health: The cubes are ideal for preventing damping-off and ensuring healthy, white roots. Nutrients to Kickstart Growth: Aptus Holland Regulator and Startbooster To give the seedlings a perfect start, I added Aptus Holland’s Regulator and Startbooster (1ml/L each). This mix promotes early root and stem strength, giving seedlings the ability to absorb light and nutrients more efficiently. • Aptus Regulator: Enhances plant resilience, aids in nutrient absorption, and promotes early vitality. • Aptus Startbooster: Adds a balanced mix of growth hormones and nutrients that are ideal for the early stages, encouraging healthy roots and faster seedling growth. Light and Environment: Future of Grow FOG LED with TrolMaster Tent X Controller I’m using a Future of Grow (FOG) LED at 600W, but keeping it dimmed down to around 200 PPFD. This setting is controlled by the TrolMaster Tent X Controller to give the plants the perfect start without overwhelming them with intense light. Controlled lighting helps seedlings to develop without stress, encouraging healthy growth and internode spacing. Shoutouts: • Future of Grow LED: High-quality, efficient LED light that adapts well to seedling and veg stages. • TrolMaster Tent X Controller: Reliable and intuitive control over light, humidity, and more. Perfect for a hands-off, efficient environment setup. Observations: One Seedling Takes the Lead At the end of this germination stage, it looks like one seedling has emerged as the strongest, while the others may need a few more days. Patience and observation are key; some seeds naturally take a bit more time to sprout. I’ll keep monitoring these with hope, allowing each seedling its own rhythm. Grower’s Notes and Tips • Consistency Matters: Germination is all about steady conditions—consistent moisture, gentle nutrients, and stable lighting make all the difference. • Document Everything: Keeping a log of each step (like this one!) helps track growth patterns and provides valuable insights for future grows. • Stay Positive and Patient: Not every seed will sprout at the same rate. Trust the process and remember each plant is unique. Community Shoutouts Thank you to everyone who makes this process smoother and inspiring—TrolMaster, Aptus Holland, Future of Grow, and Seedsman Seeds for amazing genetics and tools, as well as the growers’ community who share insights, tips, and encouragement along the way. Next Steps Now that we’re through germination, we’ll move into the early growth phase. I’ll keep documenting the lighting adjustments, nutrient changes, and growth patterns of each plant, especially that eager seedling leading the way!

Vamooos familia, y es que nuestras gorillas girl de sweet seeds son increíbles, tienen un grosor de 7mm en el tallo a mitades, brutal, y eso que las tenemos en 5,5litros. Ph controlado en 6,5 tenemos humedad y temperatura dentro de los parámetros, pronto empezaremos aportar overdrive ya que es una cepa la cual sacaremos el máximo partido a las flores. Me a flipado mucho el crecimiento en si de esta sativa, tienen pocas hojas y son bastante grandes en comparación al resto.

Finalizing the grow. Harvest is in one week. One plant needs to cook a bit longer and its not that bad for the others. Fading is normal,Smell and terpene profile is awesome, and the preharvested testbud blew me away. Im drooling :)

ok so everything has gone fantastic , no nutrient burns at all , and have been slowly creeping up the base nutrients , i have stopped the cal mag and now adding house and gardens bud XL at full strength these girls are now in full swing of flower the Cal mag has made absolutely no difference too the yellow colour of this blackberry so I suspect it is just how this strain is as meany diary's on here of the same strain are also on the yellow side , but it's certainly not affecting the speed of the growth of her , i also bought a new ph stick this week , i have found when PHing the feed bucket that its best too have air stones in the bucket , add all nuts and then ph but do not use the feed that day as if you check the next day the ph is off again so i left it 24 hours after i add more ph down , and it seems too make the measurements alot easier and stable , i have bent down the main stems " without damaging them onto my netting too A keep the canopy all the same high so my lighting is covering all plants at the same distance and also it allowed the side stems too reach up too , i also was sponsored another new led light by kingbo this week so have added another 600watt led too the grow , so now have two 600's and one 900watt , and temps are still fine sitting at 24c lights on and 19-20 off , so am pleased with that , I accidentally bend the main stem last week while I was putting them under the netting too try and control the stretch , luckily it did not crack or snap the branch at all and she didn't droop on that branch at all and has healed already , it may or may not be related but as soon as it happened the side branches thickened up too the thickness of the main stem , this plant has over taken the rest in size even being a full week too 15 days younger , it's certainly not ideal but it really does not appear too have slowed down the growth and may well go in my favour , this lady really did stretch out from week 4 into 5 and is showing no sign of slowing down , her side branches are very thick almost as thick as the main stem , her leaf production was minimal and I have only had too remove very few too expose the bud sites , the yellowing seems too be recovering now and most of the plant is green now , Update , Now gone a lush green colour instead of that horrible yellow , and the buds have already started too purple , she has also stepped up a gear with her nutrient intake almost drinking 6 pints since Thursday , She seems too have slowed down on the stretch and has so meany bud site scattered all over her with as the diary name suggests black roses everywhere , and note too any seed banks reading this if there is not a purple stain out there already called black rose now is your chance lol and Iwant a sample pack first kinda like the tester :) Now defoliation , as you can see they really didn't seem too mind at all being stripped and within a couple of days they had all replenished the lost leaves and even this week olive had to pull the odd few off as they have grown out , Method , well all info now is simple , Anything I cannot tuck under something that is blocking a bid site with shade I remove too middle or bottom , Everything else stays , I just stand above the plant and pull off anything covering the sites , it's really as simple as that , I see some strip them until there is nothing left on but a few sugar leaves , but for me didn't like the look of the plants , for me the growing process is just as much fun as the fruits ,

Bueno empiezo la 3 semanas día 15, con un unos LEDs rojos que me regalaron marshydro al comprar el fc800 evo , creo que se llama así 😝 es una auténtica bestia, ya no me imagino que pueden hacer los leds rojos, en teoría la luz roja aparte de hacer madurar los frutos, engordar y dar sabor, también ayuda a hacer crecer a los nuevos tallos que están más abajo y reciben menos luz, la luz roja profunda les da energía a esos brotes para que crezcan y busquen la luz blanca... Total.. quiero ver si crecen las ramas que están escondidas... También he añadido CO2 , cada segundo dos burbujas.. no quiero pasarme, porque tanto echar magnesio, me a dado un poco de exceso, lo he corregido echando más agua al depósito, y con la ayuda de CO2 hará que coman más las plantas, y corregiré antes el exceso de magnesio, en teoría jejeejje😅😅 todo en teoría

12/31: They are both coming along nicely.👍 Today was the first day in which I fed them some Big Bloom and Boomerang along with humic acid, pH'd to 6.1. 1/3: I've been letting them dry out a bit for the last two days. They've got roots coming out the bottoms now...I'll probably transplant them into 5 gallon fabric pots tomorrow or the next day. I ordered a 4' 180w tube light with 578 LEDs..it has a 360 degree beam with 3000k and a bunch of 660nm. It's waterproof, so no worries about keeping it beneath my canopy to illuminate the lower branches and hopefully increase the density of those buds that never get much top-lighting. Today, I mounted my two new 24w UVA LED lights (395-405nm) to my frame. I'll run them 6 hours a day from the time I put the plants into my closet, until harvest. It is my understanding that exposure to UVA, particularly during the vegetative stage, triggers many different plant defense hormones, which speed growth and can increase heartiness to withstand constant exposure to UVB without suffering as much cellular damage as usual. I'm also ordering a 2' Solacure FlowerPower UVB (285nm-310nm) next week to use during flowering to stress the plants and increase trichome production. 1/4: I foliar fed them with big bloom and fulvic acid a few times today and gave them about 4 ounces to drink. 1/5: Transplanting day. I dusted their roots with magic dust and transplanted them into 5 gallon pots today. I had some excellent compost with biochar and myco that I mixed into their soil, too. I watered them in with about 2 quarts of their first taste of full strength veg nutes, plus mycorrhizal fungi, trichoderma, beneficial bacteria, and humic acid, then I sprayed them with biotabs boomboom spray when finished. The were moved into the closet under the quantum boards, UVA's, and a pair of MiracleLED blue bulbs. I'll start adding far-red spectra to the equation in the next few days.

Earlier watering was fed with nutrients, and my temperature is not low so I should go with minimum to medium quotas with more water avoiding burns, without much runoff mixing with soil compounds and mycorrhizae for better performance I know they need a calcium magnesium for better performance the problem is money I will continue with the use of salt Epson the option I have at the moment, direct sulfur in the soil mix has helped me hear a noticeable change. watering ph 6.2 solution temperature 20 ° - 0.50 g of large white microreceptor 2 days earlier sprayed with ppm-free water via leaves - lights off to serve as a cool-down shower is great for stomata . Simple led panel added as main light source 260watts being divided to 3 plants in the fullspectro tent model, did not get much difference in temperatures compared to HPS, is more the same spectro ratio and UV to reach more directly in the trichomes and terpenes. Moc medium leaves look more like Indica while larger leaves bring one more sativa a set a nice strong sweet smell, I prefer to conclude in the end the true tone I feel, she drinks more water than others the soil is easier to drain So I see in her an ability to take more quotas of nutris, slowly being able to take if necessary always try to avoid burns ...

Die Pflanzen wurden nach 9 Tagen im Becher in jeweils einen 19L Stofftopf umgetopft. Nach 14 Tagen wurden beide mit einem Skalpell getoppt. Bisher fand so gut wie keine zusätzliche Düngung statt. Ab jetzt wird regulär Dünger verabreicht.

For the germination process I ,First put the seeds in distilled water ph 6.5 for 24 hours . Let them float for the first 12 hours in a warm (dark) place . I used my grow tent temperature inside was 75 degrees and 50%humidity through out the entire process . After first 12 hours I poked the seed to the bottom of the cup and let them set for the finale 12 hours . After the full 24 hours was up . I placed the seed’s on a plate with paper towel first and second I added water to the paper towel (moist not wet) and placed a seeds on top with another moist paper towel and let go back in the tent for 2 more days After two days the tap roots appeared for each seed so I potted 2-3 into there finale medium . Didn’t have enough soil for all 3. Once potted. Plants 🌱 are given 18 hours of light 💡

Had various minor issues during the grow, but overall Master Kush finished great. Nice frosty dense smelly colas. Will try to update the harvest video once this is up. It will be on my YouTube channel for sure. The Unit Farm UF4000, and UF2000 lights worked great. Gonna cut her down and get to next one. Thanks again Unit Farm, and Weed Seed Express. 🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the likes, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel. 🍻🌱👍 Happy Growing 🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

Update in progress... 11/23/24 - Chopped and hung whole in closet. 11/29/24 - Trimmed and jarred. Early samples detect incredible taste and smell. The high is immediate and very energetic. Felt up front and in the face. Very pleased with the initial weights, although I will make certain they are accurate and final before posting numbers. 12/11/24 - No clue why it only gives me an option to log the wet bud weight but I put 3.55 oz for my final weight and that is dry.
