NOTES:
Keeping the pH between 5,8-6,0 and EC at around 1,4-1,6 depending on system. EC at 1,5 seems to be optimal and my measurements are staying pretty steady at that level. Humidity is lowered to around 50% if I can.
The tops are now at around 45-60cm height from the soil.
Continuing the last heavier defoliation/pruning process that I started yesterday at the end of 2nd flowering week. I saw no signs of mold or any other issues as I went through the plants.
After this week I'm going to change the nutrient solutions on the tanks and fill them with fresh nutrients with minor changes: Dropping the amount of Grow from 1,5ml to 0,5ml and increasing the amount of Bloom from 1,5ml to 2,5ml. After the change I'm only going to refill the tanks without adding any Grow and will instead increase the amount of Bloom to 3ml. Propably a one more change of fresh nutrients until flushing with Final Solution prior harvesting.
Day64 (19.12.)
Some more defoliation focusing on the upper growth revealing bud sites below them and keeping off the moisture. Already got a trash bag almost full of leaves since they've been pretty bushy plants on average.
Day65 (20.12.)
Continuing the last defoliation process.
Day66 (21.12.)
Continuing the last defoliation process, pretty satisfied with the results so far. Light penetration and airflow have increased greatly so I don't have to worry that much about humidity or possible mold any longer.
Each strain has started flowering, all plants are females and buds have started to develop. Defoliating didn't seem to stress the plants as much as I thought it would.
Day67 (22.12.)
Day68 (23.12.)
Refilled and added some nutrients with a stronger Bloom/Grow -ratio (~4:1) and left my girls to enjoy the Christmas Holidays as I did. I'll be gone for around three days, after that I'll change to new fresh nutrients as I mentioned before.
One Ayahuasca Purple seems to be ahead of others, and a few other ones have clearly started to develop some buds too, rest of the plants are following closely behind. Each strain has some truly astonishing individuals, and I think Ayahuasca's have shown most variety between different plants. Overall everything looks pretty good I think. Hopefully can say the same after a couple of days as I come back.
Happy holidays everyone!
Day69 (24.12.)
Day70 (25.12.)
I added another Led light to my tent just before the lights turned off. Everything looks amazing!

🌱 Grow Diary – Week 11 Veg
Week 11 of veg, and the plant is finally settling into a steady rhythm again. After last week’s defoliation and topping, she’s been taking her time to bounce back, and this week you can see clear signs of recovery. Growth is coming back with energy, not explosive, but steady and healthy.
Right now, there are eight new apex sites forming nicely. I’m considering topping again, but that’s still undecided—I’d rather let her keep pushing forward for a while before making that call. For now, she’s cruising.
The main focus this week is on stability. pH has been kept between 5.9 and 6, and that seems to be working well. Temperatures are holding steady at 22–23°C, with relative humidity around 70%. These conditions feel just right for recovery and steady growth heading into autumn.
On the branch I taped after it cracked during training, the healing seems to be going fine. I haven’t fully checked under the tape yet, but from the look of things, it should be on track, and I’ll likely remove it next week.
It’s a bit frustrating that we lost some valuable time in the early stages, but over the past few weeks the plant has definitely been getting back on track. The color looks healthy, growth is steady, and overall she’s moving in the right direction again.
So, Week 11 is about patience, observation, and keeping everything dialed in. No big changes, just letting her recover and stack energy for what’s next.

The blue dream is finishing off the bloom cycle. The plants leaves are fading evermore leaves are practically yellow. The stalk is beginning to decay. The aroma emanating from the plant has increased smells like fortified wine with a floral essence. The try chromes have covered all the flowers and are most of them are milky! The hue’s are light green. The calyxes are almost fully swollen and complete! Just waiting for the amber try chromes. The blue dream will be flushed out at the next feed. The lady stands at 93cm ta

Harvest is imminent! I'm basically just waiting for her to drink her last watering. So 1-3 days I guess - my last few "finished" plants basically stopped drinking much at the end, and she seems to be the same. But my last post was about a week ago so one more flowering week report!
A few days ago I took off some of the brittle taco-ified fan leafs. My guess is they don't do much for photosynthesis anymore and just prevent lower growth from getting light. Upper leafs by now have turned a pretty violet/plum color! I put a leaf from another plant in the picture for comparison.😊
Structurally there is little change since last week. Smell is still incredible too!
She is significantly heavier than three weeks ago so the stems are losing the battle against gravity.. but as she's coming down in a few I'm not gonna go wild with jojos or garden wire. 🤷

Pollen was dropping like crazy as the male flowers got ripe and ready. The females got good and coated and fully pollinated. I harvested the males to collect and preserve the pollen. Some dried and I veiled it up. But the bulk majority is still drying up.
I left just the bottom portion of the male kicking for some extra pollen well the females throw off. The diary will now begin to focus on the pollinated females. The journey to beans is well under way! Until next update. Happy growing and stay lit fam.

Boy oh boy, the final day of the first Medusa F1 Hybrid 1/5. Seed to harvest in 93 days.
The first medusa F1 grew super fast. Her vegetative period was very short, showing white pistils at day 18 already, but grew into a beautiful lady.
The first medusa was only subjected to LST and a little defoliation. The other Medusa plants from my diary (2/5 and 4/5),were topped and this definitely increased the amount of flower sites.
Nevertheless, she grew thick and fat with heavy buds smelling like a sweet petrol station.
The pistils turn bright orange and many calyxes are formed with hardly any leaves in between. I noticed after week 11 she started producing new calyxis with white pistils and therefore I waited a bit longer. I would recommend this and wait a bit longer to see if it happens for you too.
Some trichomes were starting to turn amber and I maybe could have waited a little longer, also for the lower part to develop more.
She was cut down on the 18th of July and was placed in my dark dry tent for 13 days at a temperature of 18 °C and a humidity of 60%. A long and slow dry is important to preserve terpenes.
After 13 days, on the 31st of July, the branches were making a cracking sound when bending, so I decided to take the branches out of the drying tent and trim them.
My 4 x 200W lights (on the box) only pull 50W from the wall so I think they are not super good.
I made pictures with a Nikon camera and a white background.
I smoked some and she tastes peppery with a sweet aftertaste. I will smoke more after a good long cure for at least 2-4 weeks in my jars.
Check the progress of my other medusa F1 diaries and see the full experiment if topping is beneficial for these F1's.
I would recommend trying out these amazing genetics and see for yourself.
Great job Royal Queen Seeds for breeding these cultivars.

A bigger dome is on the list of things to build I need to allow more room for these absolute Trees to sprawl out. I never imagined they would get this size and this is all before pre-flower stretch I don’t even know what to expect when she starts
This is honestly a dream I’ve accidentally created a forest! so much good quality organic medicine to keep me happy all year

Woche 10
Schöne stinkige Blüten am Blümchen welche so langsam immer dicker werden. Trichome sind, wie zu dieser Zeit bei 56 bis 63 Tagen agegebener Blüte zu erwarten, noch Glasklar. Da das Blümchen zwischenzeitlich Adlerklauen bekam, wurde die Wassermenge, sowie Düngerkonzentration reduziert.
* Zustand der Pflanze: Kräftiger Blütestretch, erste Blütenstände sichtbar.
* Wichtige Ereignisse: Anhebung des DLI.
* Düngung & Messwerte:
* Gießwasser: pH ca. 6,5. Leitwert 0.9
* Drain: Wir stellen sicher, dass der pH-Wert nicht unter 5,5 und nicht über 6,8 liegt und der Leitwert die +/- 500 S Abweichung einhält.
* Anpassungen: Das Blümchen hat sich bisher mäßig nur mäßig gestreckt um auf die Hohe ihrer Mitbewohnerin zu kommen wurde sie daher auf einen Hocker gestellt. (Zum Glück haben wir kein SCROG-Netz gespannt)

- We had a flying start until 7-10 days ago when we noticed some toxicity early signs,
* Dark green leaves,
* Slow bud progress
* Burning tips,
* Crispy leaves.
⚠️ PH testing at mediums(soil) run off and the confirmation was there.
Too low PH (<4) & the roots started to lock down = (slowing nut - water uptake) -> slowing transpiration -> showing ☝️ toxicity-deficiencies.
- We stopped feeding and started to flush with tap water at 7 PH (3 waterings -7l/plant), at first run off was really low (under 4 PH) and after the flush we were at 5 PH.
- From now on we will adjust our waterings at 6.5 PH and start microdosing atami PK and snacks.
- The plants responed quickly after the first flushings and we will be back on track fast.
- Room smells like sparkling lemonade 🍋 only when teasing the buds, the humidifier/ionist keep the smells low and fastening the transpiration.
* Update at half week 6.👇
- After flush we start feeding with the atami duo and some snacks, the PH steady at 6.5.
- Buds fattening faster the last days.

As December is near the growth is slower than would like but is still thriving with more stretching happening for the side branches and the mini side branches start to stretch as well one side branch I recently topped is recovering and can see development at a decent rate hoping for some start of pre flowering signs within the week or 2 she’s really been stretching outwards I lollipop some of the weaker underdeveloped branches so can focus more energy on the healthier parts of the plant

Día 08
Entramos en la segunda semana de flora. Hice la mudanza y tuve que cortar un poquito de raíces ya que se habían ido por los caños hasta el depósito. Las raices estan tan crecidas que no puedo ni levantar las plantas con su canasta. Así que no pude enrollarlas para meterlas en el caño otra vez. Incluso me encontré con que las raíces se metían por los tubos negros de goma que las riegan. Tuve que sacarlos y destaparlos.
En definitiva ayer hice un lavado preventivo con agua oxigenada para limpiar toda posibilidad de hongos en el sistema. Por ahora se las vé sanas y avanzando. Estoy esperando a que termine el estirón para hacer una poda de hojas. De todos modos voy a usar un tipo de poda que ya he hecho antes y me ha resultado muy bien. En lugar de cortar lad hojas de abajo, corto las hojas grandes de arriba, y de esa forma dejo una base de hojas en el medio de la planta, que alimentan a todas las ramas. Y así no tengo nada que tape la liz a las flores que quiera dejar. De esa mitad de planta para abajo, no qieda ninguna rama. Ya fui cortando algunas. Pero la semana que viene voy a hacer la poda más real. Me asusta un poco el tamaño de las raíces. No sé donde puede terminar esto.
Dia 12
Hoy hice una defoliación fuerte. Corté muchas hojas y ramas. Pero el corte que hice es un tipo de corte que ya he hecho antes con muy buenos resultados. Elijo una altura que suele ser entre el 2do y 3er nudo, y corto todas las hojas grandes de arriba, dejando sólo las hojas grandes del medio y abajo. Todos los ápices que dejo, estan por encima de ese nivel de hojas que dejo. Por debajo de eso nada. De esa forma la planta sigue recibiendo luz en todas las flores, y en las hojas abajo de ellas. Solamente me preocupa que se han juntado mucho las ramas principales de cada planta. Así que voy a tener que aplicar un LST intensivo cuando empiecen a engordar. Seguramente ahora empiecen a tomar menos agua, dado que con la cantidad de hojas que había antes, transpiraban mucho. Ahora será cuestión de ir vigilando el engorde y no fallar al momento de splicar nutrientes. Para la 3ra semana pienso empezar a sumar big bud a la mezcla que uso. Y mantener el bud blood, pero a mitad de dosis. Al final se volvieron tan tupidas, que no pude dejar una sin cortar hojas, dado que ya estábamos hablando de hojas abanico que atravezaban casi todo el indoor a lo ancho. Espero que pronto empiece la floración propiamente dicha

Mar 24:
Watering till runoff now...
runoff ppm was 2500+...
Will be using very mild nutes to flush over 1 - 3 feeds... or until I am near my input.
Mar 26:
Continuing to use 650ppm feed with bloom focus, 2L per plant gives 15% runoff...
Runoff ppm is still very high...
I wanted to check pH of runoff but the color is so vibrant i cant use the pH drops to view color, need to get a pH probe.
Plants are thriving, no issues at all. the extra fan fixed the post-water droop.
One plant is bushy and has the most bud sites,
One is the smallest but has the most uniform structure, this one has the biggest buds and thickest stalk,
One is about in the middle of the 2.
Mar 29:
one of these girls gets droopy early when its time for water, thought the canopy was too high so i tied down some more, no cigar...
gonna try increasing calmag, if that doesent work im going to reposition in the grow box to a side instead of middle, may not need the upper end ppfd...
