Week 16 (Harvest) 1-2 Drying day 1 Temperature: 24.5 to 19.5 degrees Humidity: 65% to 50% The girls are ready to be harvested! Before chopping them down, i took a lot of pictures. I was able to remove most of the soil from the Biscotti #2 to see the rootball. I hang the plants as a whole to have a slow dry. The exhaust fan is on setting 4. 2-2 Drying day 2 Temperature: 19.1 to 17.5 degrees Humidity: 62% to 57% I changed the exhaust fan to setting 2 because setting 4 was a bit high in my opinion. 3-2 Drying day 3 Temperature: 19.9 to 18 degrees Humidity: 62% to 59% Today i checked up on the drying plants, and i see there are some buds touching other buds, so i chopped the plants in half. The buds are still to the main stem for a slow dry, but are hanging more spreaded out to prevent any budrot issues. I changed the exhaust fan to setting 1, as someone told me that it was enough air movement for drying. 4-2 Drying day 4 Temperature: 19.8 to 18.5 degrees Humidity: 62% to 59% 5-2 Drying day 5 Temperature: 19.9 to 18.8 degrees Humidity: 62% to 59% Today i checked on the drying plants and the buds are shrinking a bit, they are getting a little bit crispy on the outside aswell, I hope they wont dry as fast, and i aim for a 12/14 day dry. For the next grow i already germinated 2x Chemdog (GreenHouseSeeds) 2x Gorilla Kush (GanjaFarmerSeeds) and 1x Deep Candy CBD (GreenHouseSeeds) And I have some upgrades planned aswell! I bought a autopot kit with 4 15L pots, this way the plants will have water and air 24/7 whenever they need it. I have seen alot of great results using autopots so i am very exited to try it out! And I bought a small camera so i can shoot some weekly timelapses! Feel free to Follow me if you like to get notified for the upcoming diaries! Thanks for checking out this diary, peace! (More harvest updates coming in the next couple of days!) Huge thank you to Zamnesia for the seeds, and Plagron for the collection of nutrients, and the opportunity to participate in the POWERBUDS contest! It was a fun and learningful adventure!

Lemon Cake & Lemon Drizzle Week 5 This week 5/5-5/11 Germination April 6. Vegetation Week 1 water only Week 2 water only Week 3 added recharge and TPS1 increased ppm to 570. Week 4 continues with recharge and TPS1. I added Fox Cal mag increasing ppm to 685 - 805. Week 5 TPS1 9ml/gal Recharge 5 ml/gal Fox Cal-mag 5 ml/gal This was an exciting week for my ladies. It started out with the usual feed and defoliation and training. With my upcoming vacation, I am going to be hardening off these ladies to relocate to their outside location. I checked the expected weather forecast for the week. Looks good to start hardening off. Partly cloudy with temps in the low to mid 80s just like in their tent. So that’s good. Night temperatures were in the 50-60s. This is much cooler than what they are used to as our house is at 73. Our summers are hot and humid with frequent thunderstorms. They need to get used to what mother nature will provide. I had planned to bring the plants back in the sunroom but since conditions were similar, I let them stay outside every night. And every night but 2 it rained. I did not water or feed nutrients this week. I am attempting the scrog technique on all plants. I am using a peony cage as the support structure. The cages are about 2 feet high. This may not be enough side or top support as she grows and may have to resort to tomato cages. Took pics May 6,9, & 11 Lemon girls both had mutations at germination. Lemon Drizzle split ot topped herself. This creates two main plant stalks. The primary and a smaller secondary stalk. Lemon drizzle has stretched above the scrog top opening up her structure. Today she has an erratic top canopy in multiple levels with multiple bud sites. Interesting her nodes have for this week started to develop off set from each other. Does that mean she is going into flower sooner than expected? Thanks for the visits, likes and comment, I appreciate all the plant love💚.

Let's look at this great strain and learn about its genetics, growing information, and how to obtain it. Cultivar Profile Terpenes Caryophyllene, Myrcene, Terpinolene Strain Type Sativa Difficulty Moderate Height 30 in – 78 in Yield (oz/ft2) 1 – 3 Flowering Time 9 – 10 weeks Harvest Month October Pack Size 3, 6, 12, 24 Seed Type Feminized Brand Premium Cultivars The History of Lemon Cake Strain Seeds Lemon Cake by the European-based firm Heavyweight Seeds is a strong Sativa-dominant hybrid of Lemon Skunk and Cheese. Lemon Cake seeds are easy to cultivate, especially outdoors, with a 9-10 week flowering cycle, squat shape, and large output. How to Germinate Lemon Cake Strain Seeds There are several ways to sprout your Lemon Cake strain seeds, but they are more complex, inexpensive, and efficient than the paper towel technique. Premium Cultivars suggests this method since it is simple to implement, involves commonly available tools, and ensures germination. Here’s a 9-step process for geminating Lemon Cake seeds: 1. Collect your essential tools: Lemon Cake seeds, dinner plates, distilled or bottled water, tweezers, and a working table. 2. Wet your paper towel sheets and gently squeeze the excess water. 3. Set one of the paper towels on the dinner plate and the other aside for later usage. 4. Pick your Lemon Cake strain seeds with tweezers and spread them on the towel sheet, allowing an inch between them. 5. Cover your cannabis seeds using the second paper towel. Check if the towel is moist, and if not, add water. 6. Lift the towel sheets and ensure no standing water is present. Return the paper towel and your Lemon Cake seeds carefully. 7. Place the setup in warm, dark areas, particularly a cupboard or drawer (20-120 hours). 8. Check to determine whether your Lemon Cake cannabis seeds are sprouting regularly, and if the paper towel remains moist, add water if it does not. 9. Once taproots have emerged from your Lemon Cake seeds, transplant them to your ideal growing medium. Why are Feminized Seeds Better than Regs? Feminized cannabis seeds yield only female plants (or around 99.9% female). Conversely, regular seeds generate a mix of male and female plants. Each seed strain has advantages and cons, with the grower’s specific needs ultimately determining the best. Gardeners mostly use regular cannabis seeds to create their strains, but feminized cannabis seeds are great for farmers looking for a cannabinoid-rich, bud-producing crop. Male cannabis plants generate just pollen sacs and no resinous blooms. This resin contains cannabinoids and terpenes, which are responsible for cannabis’ desirable properties. If male plants pollinate female plants, their blooms will cease releasing resin and begin producing seeds. In short, male cannabis plants do not aid in pursuing massive, powerful harvests. Nonetheless, male plants are critical to the survival of the species as well as the breeding and improvement of cannabis strains. So don’t dismiss them right away! Growing Lemon Cake Strain Seeds The Lemon Cake cannabis strain has grown in popularity due to its ease of cultivation and high yields. It’s a medium-sized plant with long branches that can use some assistance toward the end. It is rather ordinary in terms of temperature and disease resistance since it is not overly prone to unfavorable circumstances or pests. However, if you grow with hydroponics, you won’t have to bother with any of that. Should I Grow Lemon Cake Strain Seeds Indoors or Outdoors? Lemon Cake thrives in both indoor and outdoor environments. The height of this cannabis strain is one factor to consider: it can reach heights of 200cm, requiring either a large grow space or a yard to attain its full potential. Growing Lemon Cake Strain Indoors If you want to cultivate your Lemon Cake seeds (you can buy these finest seeds from Premium Cultivars) inside, you should invest in exhaust fans or carbon air filters due to the room’s strong odor. Also, if conditions are ideal, growers should expect a large yield after 9-10 weeks of flowering. Growing Lemon Cake Strain Seeds Outdoors Outdoor growers can harvest their Lemon Cake buds around the middle of October. How Much Do Lemon Cake Strain Seeds Yield? Lemon Cake can produce roughly 25 ounces per plant outdoors and 21-25 ounces per square meter when grown inside. Although you might be tempted to cut it down right away, waiting as long as possible before harvesting it and curing it correctly to enhance the quality is recommended. How to Get Better Yields from Your Lemon Cake Strain Seeds Harvest rewards are frequently a mirror of cultivation care, so be kind to your Lemon Cake plants, and they will be gentle with you. However, growers should regularly top and prune their Lemon Cake plants to improve airflow and light exposure, thus raising yields. The Best Grow Medium for Lemon Cake Strain Seeds Cultivators can grow Lemon Cake seeds in hydroponic or soil systems. However, experts propose using a precise hydroponic arrangement to achieve optimal production and control its occasionally unpredictable growth rates. The Best Climate for Lemon Cake Strain Seeds Lemon Cake strain enjoys warm, semi-humid areas and is inherently resilient, having excellent mold and disease resistance. Growing outside is only acceptable in warmer climates, as this cannabis strain needs sunlight. Problems to Look Out For When Growing Lemon Cake Strain Seeds When cultivating Lemon Cake cannabis seeds, the primary issue to watch out for is dehydration and overwatering when the crops are little and susceptible. If the leaves of your Lemon Cake plant turn yellow, this indicates that the plant isn’t receiving enough oxygen to the roots. How Difficult is it to Grow Lemon Cake Strain? One of Lemon Cake’s noteworthy characteristics is its simplicity of cultivation. Are Lemon Cake Strain Seeds Suitable for Beginners? Yes, these cannabis stain seeds are great for novice growers, and they will obtain outstanding results. The Best Grow Techniques for Lemon Cake Strain Topping Topping encourages the plant to grow horizontally rather than vertically, but when it does so is determined by soil condition, plant health, light, plant size and age, and growth goals. Topping cannabis reshapes the crop in a way that improves light dispersion significantly. Cutting one tall branch to make multiple new ones at the same height guarantees that lower (buds on lower branches) also receive more light. Another essential reason to top your cannabis crop is for better height management. Logically, the two new branches develop slower than the one branch. Topping a cannabis plant separates its development into several branches. Making the plant grow less in height while putting more energy into expanding broader. This is incredibly convenient for growers, especially for limited indoor plants. Trimming Trimming can be an excellent technique for cannabis producers who have been cultivating a plant for a long time to connect with it while boosting the quality and form of the buds. There are two methods for trimming cannabis plants: wet and dry. Wet trimming, as the name implies, happens when the cannabis plant is still wet. This means you harvest your plants and immediately begin the trimming procedure. Conversely, dry trimming will necessitate drying your crops out for a few days before you start trimming the bud. If you’re cultivating cannabis at home, you’ll almost certainly have to perform all this by hand. For devoted producers, machine trimmers are available, making the operation considerably less labor-intensive. However, due to their high cost, commercial farmers mainly utilize them. Trimming can be time-consuming for many growers, but it’s also thrilling since the growth process is almost complete, and your cannabis is almost ready to have. After you’ve completed trimming, there’s one more step left until you have a great bud: curing. Pruning Pruning is the practice of eliminating extraneous shoots, branches, and leaves from a plant to push it to redirect its limited energy into its present and established development. When left to its own devices, a cannabis plant will frequently grow too large to sustain itself properly with the quantity of energy it generates. If left untreated, this can lead to several minor bud sites as the plant strains to survive while creating bud during flowering. By eliminating unneeded and weak growth, you push the cannabis plant to focus on what remains, resulting in a stronger plant capable of producing a few huge buds rather than many little ones. This frequently leads to higher total yields.

*all white spots are from nutrients + water* Titan has been entering flowering for a week or so its week 5 now and the pistils are are getting decently long seeing the buds starting to form and some pistils are orange many bud sites been doing lst to maximize bud sites, special kush #1 on the left has been doing pretty good for the torture it’s been through both plants are obviously stunted but special kush is pretty resilient, trimmed the edges of leaves as they were over nutriezed and touching soil, while I was doing lst a couple weeks ago I split the stem where the tops were growing on accident and I tied it together with a piece of rubber tightly and it’s been doing pretty good the 2 tops came back and they’re getting pretty big and developing more branches

The girls are starting to get fat and enter the ripening stage. Purples are strong. I got purple trichomes!! We’re running just under 1000ppm with no issues. We switched nutes and reservoir funk is gone. This weeks accomplishments: Switch from GH to Jacks RO Install separate reservoirs for black cherry gelato and purple push pops Clean all autopots and reservoir lines. Install separate lines for black cherry gelato This weeks issues: Spider mites. Found them in the outside grow and found a few leaves with them inside. Big time nightmare. Primarily on the gelatos inside. Doing manual scouting and removal every day. Long term issues It’s hot. High 80s low 90s all week. So the same - Cooling and VPD targets during heat waves Preventing the spread of mites and mold issues during high humidity conditions Managing girlfriend expectations through harvest. I hope you all are having as much fun as I am. Best of luck gromies. Check out my black cherry gelato grow and compare side by side with my indoor grow- same clone batch. This should be a great comparison of indoor versus outdoor grows on the same schedule, same nutes and same clone batch 👍

Everything looking normal so far, had some ph issues a bit and 1 plant took it a bit harder and seems to have looked out. Got a lot of its guard leaves spotting but it’s nothing to worry about really, plants aren’t always perfect looking... corrected it quick I think so she should be fine in a few days. Cheers 💨

*****DIVINE SEEDS ***** *****FRACTAL***** Sponsored grow Week 1 Germination April 6. After starting seeds in moist cotton pads, I put the sprouted seed in seed starting soil. Their 5-gallon air pots ready and waiting for the girl's final home. This week 7-13 consisted of plain ph 6.6-6.9 water only. I gave a capful in the morning and evening. FRACTAL Fractal is an especially psychedelic strain that Divine Seeds developed for esoteric and mystical experiences, meditation and creativity. A potent and vivid landrace variety from Southern India was crossed with a sticky leaning Indica (mostly Afghani), then Skunk #1 joined this company. Their progeny underwent multiple selection experiments, until its massive built, resin concentration and hypnotizing powers reached an ultimate level. The result is now known as Fractal – resinous, spicy and productive. Best choice for commercial growing: a compromise between bigger yields and fast ripening! A great source of hashish that has something incense-like to its musky smell. Indoors expect 170 сm height, out of doors plants grow up to 200 сm. Fractal fits for all types of growing environment: grow boxes, hydroponic or aeroponic setups, outdoor plantations, balconies, terraces and green houses. For more weight it is recommended to train Fractal plants to broaden their structure and limit their vertical growth. For that purpose use ScroG or SoG, LST, FIM or topping, supercropping or mainlining – there are no limitations for the strain itself, but certainly low-stress methods are recommended to smaller samples. Fractal has an inherent immunity to molds and insect pests, but since its colas are thick, protect your plants from stale air. Also during rainy weeks your plantation may need to be covered. Ready for outdoor harvesting in October. Big and dense buds the color of olive, hunter green heavily coated with crystals. Whole Fractal buds smell hashy and earthy, while cedar and fruity hints are noticeable on breaking. Measure your portion carefully: the potency is above average! With Fractal you experience an overall stoning that either keeps you put or slows your motion down, also vertigo is possible. However, in moderate dosage the impact is described as a pleasant sensation of well-being and placidity. Perfect for spending a night by a bonfire without talking, therefore is more often enjoyed as a solo smoke. Efficiently relieves muscle spasms and seizures, inflammations, combats insomnia and increases your appetite. Up to 3 hours of altered state of mind can be expected. Best consumed at night time.

WEEK 5 8/16- Alrighty! Start of week five and all the ladies are in flower and starting to look sexy as hell! Even the Crystal Meth #2 in the SOHUM Living Soil that had a soil ph of 5.2-5.4 and 4.2 ph runoff on a 4 1/2 gallon flush of 7.7 ph water is doing well! I checked the ph on her soil this morning and she's at 6.4...PERFECT! I gave all the girls a drink of de-chlorinated water in the amount of 2 1/2g with 1 tsp CalMag+ added and ph'd to 6.9 split evenly between them. 8/17- Day 30- The girls are all really growing like crazy filling out their 10g fabric pots. I went through all of them today and, using the green horticultural wire LST'd the crap out of everyone! I know, I know....LST on Day 30??? I've LST'd this late before and had really good results so giving it a go this run. Gave all the girls a small drink as they were moist 2" down using 2 1/2g de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.8 @ 75 deg. After I LST'd all the girls, I selectively tucked shade leaves and defoliated a couple here and there and also removed all the shitty little undergrowth down low on the main stalks. Can't believe the FastBuds Crystal Meth #2 came back from the edge of oblivion. I checked her medium(SOHUM Living Soil) ph which is still @ 6.4...whew! I think she's gonna do just fine, although not as good as her sister who's an obviously different phenotype. 8/18- Cranked up the HLG 650R's to max today. Now drawing 1300w at the wall-650w each and raised both lights to 42" high which is giving 800-1100 umols depending on what place on the canopy you check. 8/19- I administered the second dose of live Nematode's with the girls morning watering. I put the Nematodes in 2 1/2 gallons of de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.8 @ 74 deg. and split it evenly between all eight pots. I tightened up the LST on all the girls to keep spreading them out and getting better light penetration into the lower canopy. 8/20- I started a batch of Compost Tea this morning- 4 cups worm castings, 1 cup of Alfalfa Meal, 1 cup Kelp Meal, 2 tbsp Bat Guano into 4 1/2 gallons of de-chlorinated water with a 6.9ph in which I added 5 tbsp of unsulphured molasses as a catalyst for the microbes. I'll brew this for 48 hours. The ladies all were moist enough that I felt safe skipping the water for today, I'll give them a light watering tomorrow, then a heavy feed with the compost tea. I went through and tucked the heck out of leaves blocking bud sites from light (this is a chore as the girls are getting BUSHY as hell!) and removed a few scattered fan leaves that refused to be tucked and were really blocking light into the lower canopy....can't be having that, need the LIGHT! 8/21- Ladies were all looking very perky this morning and the FastBuds Crystal Meth and Purple Lemonade are both getting beautiful purple shades to them especially the FastBuds Crystal Meth #1 in Natures Living Soil Autoflower Concentrate, she's absolutely on FIRE although her node spacing is very wide. The #2 Crystal Meth in SOHUM that had the ph issue with her medium seems to have recovered after I flushed the shit out of her. She's behind her sister and definitely has a different structure than the #1 phenotype. The Purple Lemonade #1 & #2 are both flowering with #2 looking way better. The #1 Purple Lemonade has some thick kushy leaves and she's a short little biatch, in contrast to the #2 which is tall and lanky with wider node spacing. The #2 Purple Lemonade is having a little issue apparently with the nitrogen level in the medium as she's getting 'claw tips' on several of her leaves and judging by her dark green coloration, she's nitrogen rich right now. I'll keep an eye on her but don't think it's a big issue at this moment in time. The Seedsman Gelato OG in Natures Living Soil Autoflower Concentrate is getting bushy and has filled out the 10 gallon fabric pot. She's got a ton of bud sites and it's a struggle training to keep all the sites exposed to light. The #2 Gelato OG in SOHUM is doing about the same as her sister but she's not quite as tall. The Seedsman Zkittles #1 slowed down on her stretch and just decided to get bushy instead! She's still in pre-flower but is very healthy and will be getting it on very soon! Her 'Sin Twisters' Zkittles #2 & #3 are beautiful and in flower. The Zkittles 'twins' were previously the shortest plants in this run but have caught up and are as tall as the Zkittles #1 @ 14". 8/22- End of Week 4! The girls got Compost Tea ( 8.1 ph, 840 ppm and 1636 EC @ 78 deg.) for breakfast this morning along with a top dress on the six ladies growing in Natures Living Soil Autoflower Concentrate / Fox Farms Happy Frog mix. The two SOHUM pots with the Seedsman Gelato OG #2 and FastBuds Crystal Meth #2 got 4 tbsp of 2-8-4 slow release dry amendments by Down To Earth top dressed and worked in by hand. I gave them each 1/2 gallon of Compost Tea after top dressing to help water in the nutrients. I went through all the girls and tucked and gently spread their branches to continue to train them as they get ready to really start flowering. The FastBuds girls are getting MORE colorful each and every day and I can't wait to open the tent each morning to see them....BEAUTIFUL!!!
