8/23 - End of Week 3. Going to start some top feeding at like half strength for the Fox Farm Soil schedule in next few days. Drinking well and consistently from the self-watering bases. Bugs seem to be under control but will probably add some bits to the bases to make sure the gnats don't resurface. Stalk is strong and looking good and a good amount of new growth after taking some fan leaves off yesterday to "top". CO2 levels looking a little better, opened another vent in the tent. 8/22 - Adjusted light down to 80% after getting a lux meter and checking the intensity. Soil PH is slighly acidic at 6.1. Got some phUp and phDown but haven't adjusted yet. Trimmed top 4 fan leaves to stall out the top stalk and open up the bottom branches a bit. Added a mushroom exhale bag to increase co2 levels, were sitting around 500 ppm before I added. 8/21 - Still drying out the self-watering base a bit, will add water today. Sides of fabric pot still a bit wet to the touch but I think that's just the active wicking going on. Thought the initial canoe'ing leaves were from overwatering when overfilling the self-watering base but now I think it has more to do w/ some shock from the thrips and 24 hour light, or perhaps a bit of sunburn from being sprayed w/ the neem oil / bug killer. 8/16 - Had to fight off some thrips and still dialing in the tent conditions. Might be a little overwatered currently.

Another week for this SOG of Auto's from our friends fastbuds, at the moment they are doing great, i do notice that some genetics required less food than others (they all got the same amount but some showed signs of N toxicity last weeks) At the moment we noticed the stretch and we needed to put the lamp higher, we are growing with a TS1000 at the moment and things are looking good 😊 The strawberry gorilla is getting a lot taller than the rest

This week has been sunny, hot and wet. I have not done a thing except to keep an eye on Miss Zamnesia Mango Kush. It has been a hot and rainy week and I did not feed this plant this week. That is why I did not record Ph levels and PPM, etc this week. I have really wanted to give this diary an honest, straight up review of Miss Zamnesia Mango Kush growing in whatever Mother Nature threw her way. She is tall and thin but has a lot of bud growth. I am eager to see how big her buds will get. One thing that I have not been super pleased with is using Miracle Grow as a nutrient. This outside grow was an experiment using Miracle and not my typical Fox Farm nutrients. At this point in my grow, Miracle Grow needs to remain for garden vegetables and flowers NOT cannibas. As a result, I have made an Executive Decision and will going add some @Advance Nutrients Jungle Juice for the remainder this grow. I don't have a lot to report this week except my outside grows are tall and lanky plants. My last video shows you all 3 of my outside grows and they are all tall and lanky. And, they have had all of the same Miracle Grow nutrients and Mother Nature(sun, heat and rain). Stay tuned to next week and comments are always welcome. Thanks for visiting--susquihanna

Day 56 Jungle Jimmy / Day 57 Pink Cookies: Nothing to do today. Day 57 Jungle Jimmy / Day 58 Pink Cookies: Nothing to do today. Day 58 Jungle Jimmy 63 cm / Day 59 Pink Cookies 90 cm: Nothing to do today. The outside temperature are getting high right now, so the temperature in the tent increases as well. I hope I can manage to keep the temperature about 30° C. We are at day 19 after switching to 12/12. The bud development is quite impressive at this time. Day 59 Jungle Jimmy 66 cm / Day 60 Pink Cookies 93 cm: Nothing to do today. Day 60 Jungle Jimmy 68 cm / Day 61 Pink Cookies 96 cm: Nothing to do today. Day 61 Jungle Jimmy 68 cm / Day 62 Pink Cookies 98 cm: Nothing to do today. -------------------------------------------------------------- 🙏 Thanks for visiting and follow for daily updates 🌱

🌱 Grow Diary Update — Sour Diesel Week 4 | First week of flower (12/12) This week, the spotlight is on Sour Diesel, because she clearly stood out from the rest of the room — and when one plant speaks louder than the others, we listen. ⸻ 📍 Quick recap (so everyone is on the same page) • Sour Diesel just entered week 6 / first week of flower • She was running on Autopots with mineral-only feed • Organics and amendments were removed from the Autopot system • The rest of the room handled this change fine • She did not She started showing: • Droopy posture • Loss of vigor • Early deficiency-type signals • A general “I’m not comfortable” look Important detail: 👉 She was the only plant reacting like this. ⸻ 🌿 Why this happened (the key lesson) Sour Diesel is an old-school genetic, and not all strains respond the same way to abrupt system changes. In her case: • She was previously thriving with organics + minerals • Removing organics reduced: • Nutrient complexity • Biological buffering • Availability of secondary elements • This happened right at the transition into flower, when demand increases sharply On top of that, we had environmental pressure: • Outside temps: ~4°C • Outside humidity: ~98% • Room stabilized at: 21°C / 58% RH Those conditions are acceptable — but combined with: • Feed change • Flower transition • Genetic sensitivity …it was enough for her to react. ⸻ 🚿 Why we took her off Autopots Autopots are great — but they’re not universal. We removed her from the Autopot regimen because: • She needed immediate, tailored feeding • She wasn’t responding well to mineral-only delivery • Hand-feeding lets us: • Adjust EC gently • Reintroduce organics • Observe response feed by feed This wasn’t a system failure — it was a plant-specific decision. ⸻ Current feeding strategy (now) • Medium: hand-fed (off Autopots) • EC: 1.43 • pH: 5.9 • Full recipe: organics + minerals • Added: CalMag Pro Why CalMag Pro? • We’re using rainwater + humidifier water, which is very soft • Low calcium & magnesium availability can show fast in flower • This is both: • A corrective move for her • A preventive move for the whole room Meanwhile, the rest of the Autopot system is running: • 2.29 EC • pH 6.0 • Mineral-only • Other plants are stable and happy ⸻ 🌬️ Environment (current) • Lights: stable • Airflow: good • Temp: ~21°C • RH: ~58% Nothing extreme — but this shows how context + timing + genetics matter more than numbers alone. ⸻ 🔮 What we expect (and what we don’t) What we expect: • Gradual recovery, not overnight • Leaf posture improving first • New growth responding before old leaves • Stability over speed What we don’t expect: • Instant “fix” • Old damage to reverse • Her to behave exactly like the rest of the room From now on, she’ll simply need a bit more attention than her sisters — and that’s okay. ⸻ 🧠 The bigger takeaway This is a perfect example of why: • There is no single “best way” • Systems are tools, not rules • Genetics always get a vote • Listening beats forcing We’re not chasing perfection — we’re responding with intention. We’ll keep monitoring her closely over the coming week and adjust calmly, step by step. As always, this is just our experience and observation — not a universal recipe.

With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. 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.

Been hitting her with the Bio Bizz nutes and looking good so far. However, she IS turning purple and it's a bit concerning to me. The purple is nice tho, not gonna lie. Can't wait to see how fat she's going to be in the next few weeks.

5. April Der erhöhte Lichtmenge durch gutes Wetter war deutlich spürbar. Der LED Streifen hat die letzten zwei Wochen leider seine Mission nicht erfüllt, mangelndes Sonnenlicht auszugleichen. Die Pflanze links und rechts habe ich bereits mit Erde stabilisieren müssen. Läuft bisher absolut nicht wie gewünscht, allerdings spielt das Wetter jetzt super mit! Seit zwei Tagen stehen sie nun wieder draußen auf dem Balkon und profitieren deutlich von schönen Wetter! Ich hoffe darauf, dass die Pflanzen bald etwas stabiler werden. Hab auch gemerkt dass die benutzten nematodes leider abgelaufen waren… hab trauermücken in der Kiste. Neue sind unterwegs

Il ciclo è stato veloce e veramente molto produttivo! E stata superata 3 volte in modo che avesse 8 cole principali, i realtà poteva prendersi un altra tagliata (per riuscire ad averne 16) ma non ho voluto farlo perche avevo un vaso da 8 litri, se avessi avuto un vaso più grande sicuramente avrei continuato a fare topping! E stato un vero piacere vederla crescere ho voluto farla crescere fino a quando avesse avuto i tricomi al 30ambra e 70 latte e così ho fatto! Ho controllato con il mio lumagny 100x e una volta raggiunto un 10ambra e 90 latte ho iniziato fare il flush (dando solo acqua ed enzimi per i primi 4 giorni e per i successivi 7 ho dato solo acqua. Quando ho controllato i ppm di scarico defluiva solo 380-400ppm (che era i ppm dell'acqua iniziale).... E stato bellissimo lavorare a questo progetto con tutti questi sponsor perché ogniuno a modo suo mi ha insegnato qualcosa è come potete vedere i risultati parlano da soli! Le piante non mentono MAI!😝 Volevo anche offrire l'opportunità a tutti voi di poter acquistare qualsiasi cosa voi vogliate su hempatianetwork oppure su bioponicagrowshop con il 20% di sconto basta inserire il coupon con il codice: CURATIDASOLO ed in automatico avrai il 20% su tutti gli articoli! Spero che sia di aiuto! La prossima settimana pubblicherò le foto del raccolto (veramente generoso pesata con tutti gli steli superava il kg!) Non voglio svelarvi adesso il peso perché vorrei conservarlo per la.prossima settimana come sorpresa per tutti voi quindi miraccomando STAY TUNED! 🌈🌱👇🏼

Week 4 the right plant shows a deficiency... no idea what that is. the light from the lamp was too strong at first but it shouldn't be... I don't know - I'll keep an eye on it... I think the left plant looks good... growing splendidly - sativa genes are showing... the right plant is growing more bushy 👉Defoliation and exposing the shoots👈 I removed all the leaves that were or would soon be covered with scissors ✂️ - I started in the middle to give the plant more air flow

11/12/21: Official First flower week. Added in Big Bud Nutrients and they appear to have changed over night... lots of light green bud sites... some are even showing stigmas and white pistils... still a slight issue with the heat... but as it is near a large glass window and the size of the tent a heat mat is the best i can do. other than that the plants are looking very healthy and strong and will not be long until they are in full bloom.

15.4 The buds are already looking beautiful, with a deep purple—almost black—color. They’re developing incredibly fast. The fan leaves are starting to turn yellow, which is expected at this stage of flowering, but it feels a bit fast to me. It might be because they’re autos and the buds are maturing so quickly, so I’m guessing it’s just that. I’ll keep an eye on it, though. Interestingly, the buds on Plant #1 are developing differently from Plant #2—they have a much wider structure. The buds on #2 are already looking absolutely stunning imo.
