Hi there :o) Leaves are shading and start to feed the flower. I reduce all the nutriens in the tank and now it will grow for 5 days only on Dragon force and atazyme with chcking outcome. My point is to flush all the nutriens from the ground. Last five days (next week) I will mix only fresh water with Ph 6,2 and Ec as low as posible and start to flush the substrrate with Canna Flush for last 4 days, then 2 days dark and the harvest ! Look forward to see the final product :) I will keep You posted comminity! D.

We're beyond excited to try out this new MarsHydro LED for our latest grow, the SP-3000 is INCREDIBLY bright!! ..I have never seen a light more appropriate for a 4x2 tent in my life, we (happily) replaced 3 "600 watt" blurple LEDs with this single rig ( something we've wanted for a very long time). There should be no issue achieving perfect coverage, corner to corner with this light. Its been years since we've flowered under LED ( and never one of this quality), we're a little bias towards HID/CMH, especially my hubby but I think this might just be the LED that changes our mind! We'll be growing Gelat OG Auto by Seedsman (we've heard amazing things) for our first grow under the SP-3000, all plants in 5gl fabric pots, Promix-B (25% perlite) on a 20/4hr cycle. We're starting with 4 plants but if they become unmanageable, we'll move one or 2 of the plants to another tent. We use a glass of water and a paper towel as our germination method. We soak seeds roughly 24hrs and then in a wet paper towel for another 12-24hrs, we average roughly a 90% success rate doing it this way... Thank you for reading if you made it this far and happy harvests everyone! ❤️💡🌱😽💨 ⚡Mars Hydro/SP-3000⚡ Specifications ⚙️: Diodes: Samsung LM301B / Osram 660nm (960 total) Driver: Meanwell 300watt 🔌 (300W±5% @AC120V-277V) PPF: 824umol/S ☢️ PPE: 2.8 µmol/j 〰️〰️ Lifespan: >50k hrs ⌛ Veg Coverage: 3 x 5 ft 🌱 Flowering Coverage: 2 x 4 ft 🌼 Weight: 10.1 lbs (4.6kg) -No-fan design: the SP-3000 uses an aluminum heatsink, and the driver can be removed then placed outside the tent🌡️⬇️ -IP65 waterproof ratings, tolerant to high humidity grow environments 💦 .. -Up to 30 of these lights can be daisy-chained together and controlled from a single light! 💡~💡~💡~💡~💡 ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_ 10/10/21 🤘😺 100% germination!!

Week is going good aside from me accidently cutting off a stem on pheno 2. If I can properly save the cutting though I might have a chance at another female. Pheno 3 I'm hoping can make some comeback as I really want to flower the plant, its not dead by any means but the way its growing I just cant see it allowing itself to flower the top leaves were barely growing so I topped. Hopefully positive changes within the next week.

Candy is growing great. She had a good growth spurt this week. I treated her with neem oil yesterday as I did the whole grow room. Another plant was the one I had issues with, and I treated it before. So better safe then sorry. Everything is looking good. Thanks again Spider Farmer, Athena, and Divine Seeds. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g.

Flower Week 6 – Ripening Phase Begins The girls are now in week 6 of flowering, and the ripening phase has officially begun! The buds are noticeably denser, and resin production has kicked into overdrive — the trichomes are mostly cloudy, with a few early amber heads starting to appear. This week’s macro shots show the frost levels going insane, with every surface covered in sticky crystals. 24K Gold is showing classic ripening behavior: Her pistils are beginning to darken and curl inwards, while the calyxes start to swell. The aroma is becoming very pronounced — a sweet citrus funk mixed with a deep earthy undertone. Gelato 33 continues to build resin like crazy. The buds are slightly smaller but completely coated in trichomes. She’s developing that creamy-sweet scent typical of the strain, filling the tent with a dessert-like smell. Both plants still look perfectly healthy — the feeding routine and semi-hydro setup are keeping everything stable. Light intensity and airflow remain ideal, ensuring no mold or stress signs during this dense phase. Nutrients & Conditions: • 💧 Canna Coco A + B → 8 ml/L • 📈 EC 1.8 | pH 5.8 • 🌡️ Temperature: 25 °C day / 20 °C night • 💧 Humidity: 40–45 % • 💨 Airflow: High circulation to support trichome development The buds are swelling, trichomes are maturing fast, and the smell is becoming seriously intense. We’re now entering the final stretch — the next two weeks will focus on trichome color and terpene expression before the flush begins.

Week 7: Bloom Phase Launch & Heat Resilience Update: 04.07.2025 | Day 52 Temperatures peaked at 37°C this week – all plants handled the stress like champions. Zero pest issues. Took them out of the greenhouse to prevent heat stress. Adjusted feeding to address yellowing leaves. Strain Progress: Forbidden Runtz Officially in full bloom mode. Buds forming densely across the canopy with visible resin on sugar leaves. LST created a perfectly even structure. Emits a distinct sweet-fruity aroma when brushed – taste potential is promising. Minor yellowing on lower sugar leaves addressed with Bokashi boost. Otherwise impeccable health. Green Crack Caught up to Forbidden Runtz in size. First buds forming across all tops with early resin glimmers. Less bushy than Bruce Banner but likely needs 4-5 more weeks. Aroma present but subtle – awaiting signature mango punch. Strategic tie-downs continue to balance secondary shoots. Bruce Banner The standout performer. Bud sites exploding from every node under heavy LST. Top-down view reveals exceptional cola distribution. Responded best to training – poised to yield heaviest in the trio. Genuine testament to FastBuds' genetics. Feeding Adjustment: - Crushed Biotabs dissolved in water (50ml concentrate per 10L) - Added to every watering with Bokashi juice (1:100) - Targets yellowing while accelerating nutrient release Next Focus: - Monitor bud density development weekly and watch out for pests - Monitor plants for nute deficencies and to ensure the best growth as possible Catch ya next week. – Smoking_Joe_Frazier

Cultivation was very easy in terms of vegetation and up to half of flowering, where I encountered difficulties and ended up postponing their harvest. drying Purple presented 220g wet and 39g dry. I can smell a fruity scent on it and I see a lot of resin. I'm happy with the result but I still want a 50g plant.

All I can say is that this thing is a beast. She likely only has a week or two left so I did one last small top dress with dry amendments as well as some ewc and super soil to top it off. Cant wait to watch this girl really fatten up. She’s already having trouble holding up the colas. 😎🍿🍻🌱

Week 9: Post-Vacation Bloom & Humidity Vigilance Update: 22.07.2025 | Day 70 Back from vacation - ladies made huge progress! Weather shifted from hot/sunny to rainy/humid (22°C). Mold prevention is now top priority. Strain Check: Green Crack Developed beautifully but has fewest bud sites by far. Buds thicker than others - constant humidity checks essential. Gorgeous structure with spot-on mango aroma. Resin queen: sticky like flypaper to the touch. At least 2 weeks to go. Forbidden Runtz Looks fantastic with the best fragrance of the trio. Resin production accelerating, but buds show slight foxtailing (heat stress from previous weeks?). Solid 15-20 bud sites. Should finish in ~2 weeks. Bruce Banner Still the star with perfect even canopy. 20+ long candle-like buds forming. Resin/smell least developed but has 3-4 weeks left. Critical: Defoliation for airflow to prevent mold in this humidity. Critical Actions: -Daily inspection for curled leaves inside buds (early mold sign) - Reduced Bokashi feeding (1:150 weekly) - Strategic defoliation: Remove only touching leaves - LST adjustments to increase branch spacing - Morning stem shakes to dislodge moisture Stay blazing, keep growing! Catch y'all next week, Smoking_Joe_Frasier

Harvested 3 plants of Strawberry Cheesecake and 2 of Amnesia. This is the last one from 1st grow. I planted it 2weeks later as the original plant didn’t survive. Avoided some basic mistakes and the buds on this one are huge. All plant is covered in crazy amount of sugarlefs. Now in flush...some time next week chopping it down and moving on to next grow.

3. Zake stark überdüngt alle anderen leicht, Bat Guano von plagron zum ersten Mal während der vegi verwendet war anscheind Zuviel Phosphor für die kleinen, da es der Guano der Obst fressenden Fledermäuse ist und somit mehr PK haltig. Stark überdüngte Zake wurde gespült mit dem 3 fachen des Topfvolumens, die anderen wurden erstmal weiter beobachtet
