Some high-stress training was required. Fartbutt (the plant on the right) outgrew the container again, so I intentionally snapped the top to prevent further upward growth (I left it attached so it could still form a central cola.

Getting closer! Weather here is finally starting to turn warm including and after this weekend. That means Iโ€™ll be taking Cream Caramel, Bubbaโ€™s Gift #1 & #2 and Black D.O.G. outside to be transplanted in 45 gallon pots. Bit of a crazy week after taking my loupe to my soil and spotting a LOT of bulb mites in my soil. Nematodes surprised me with their presence too. Explains the issues I have been having with Jack Herer in my other tent. Thankfully despite them both existing in this tent the plants are doing quite well. Just a little LST and defoliation this week. Theyโ€™re doing well and I just want to leave them be until theyโ€™re outside or remain in the tent with more space. I canโ€™t wait to tie down Bubbaโ€™s Gift #3, Chemdawgโ€™91, The New and Black D.OG. Plan is to give them about a week more and then flip them to 12hrs. Still just watering with dechlorinated water. Top dressed with 4-4-4, worm castings and insect Frass. Before that a Soil Drench one day with Neem oil and Dr. Bronnerโ€™s Castile soap mixed into Mosquito Dunk water for pest control. My mycorrhizae shipment wonโ€™t be arriving until May 20th so even if the plants go up this weekend I will leave them in their existing pots until I return next weekend.

This two were part of another diary and got moved out due to space reasons at VW8 and moved back indoors at VW20 https://growdiaries.com/diaries/218151-auto-god-s-glue-grow-journal-by-yan402 13.09.25 VW21 Both are looking good and are developing tighter nodes than when they were outside, I'm going to have to keep cutting them back every once and a while I also applied nematodes against thrips and fungus gnats. 20.09.25 VW22 some spots and some yellow leafs, I think it's a root problem, probably root bound, but both seem healthy and are getting thicker so maybe just top up with Coco coir and give a slight different nutrient schedule less Tri Part Bloom could do the trick MAYBE lol. 27.09.25 VW23 Topped up the pots with extra coco coir and trimmed the side roots a bit, both plants were root bound ๐Ÿ“น 03.10.25 VW23 did a HST/LST session ๐Ÿ“น 12.10.25 VW25 Done a major HST session to try and keep them in line with the Sunset Sherbet GF I have going in the same tent, rest in the video ๐Ÿ“น 17.10.25 VW25 ffj/fpj/fish 30 โ†’ 60 ml ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐ŸŒฑ Day to day tasks & actions ๐ŸŒฟ ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐ŸŒฑ 11.10.25 VW24 โ€“ Fed 3l of #1 โ†’ 2l runoff 12.10.25 VW25 โ€“ Fed 3l of #1 โ†’ 2l runoff 13.10.25 VW25 โ€“ no water no feed 14.10.25 VW25 โ€“ no water no feed 15.10.25 VW25 โ€“ Fed 3 plain pHed water โ†’ 2l runoff 16.10.25 VW25 โ€“ Fed 3 plain pHed water โ†’ 2l runoff 17.10.25 VW25 โ€“ no water no feed 18.10.25 VW25 โ€“ Fed 3l of #1 โ†’ 2l runoff (*RUNOFF reused for tomato plants) ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿถ ๐Ÿ’ง Nutrients in 30L #1 ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿถ ๐Ÿ’ง TriPart Micro: 10 โ†’ 30 โ†’ 40 ml = 0.33 โ†’ 1.00 โ†’ 1.33 ml/L ๐Ÿถ TriPart Grow: 0 ml = 0.00 ml/L ๐Ÿ’ง TriPart Bloom: 10 โ†’ 30 โ†’ 20 ml = 0.33 โ†’ 1.00 โ†’ 0.67 ml/L ๐Ÿ’ง Cal-Mag: 60 ml = 2.00 ml/L ๐Ÿถ Home-made FFJ/FPJ (new fish batch): 30โ†’ 60ml = 1.00 โ†’ 2.00 ml/L ๐Ÿ’ง pH Down: Citric acid (BuxXtrade) โ€” adjust to ~pH 6.0 ๐Ÿ“ฆ TOTAL : = 180 ml per 30L = 6.00 ml/L ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿถ โš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธ โœ‚๏ธ Tools & equipment โœ‚๏ธ โš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธ โœ‚๏ธ 2ร— MarsHydro SP3000 โš™๏ธ MarsHydro 150mm ACF Ventilator โœ‚๏ธ Trotec dehumidifier (big unit) โš™๏ธ Mini no-name dehumidifier โœ‚๏ธ Kebab skewers (LST โ€“ stainless) โš™๏ธ Wire + roast skewers (LST assist) โœ‚๏ธ Scissors (HST) โš™๏ธ Vacuum (for spills & cleanup) โœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธ ๐Ÿ’๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿ’๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿ’๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿ’ ๐Ÿฆ„Fantasy Feast ( Seeds)๐Ÿฆ„ ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿ’๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿ’๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿ’๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿ’ Species: Hybrid (Regular) Genetics: The mother is Unicorn Whip by Dirty Bird Genetics.

1st Week of Flowering! 28 Aug - first 10am-10pm (12hr) cycle today, having had a shorter light period yesterday to adjust to 10-10. LSTโ€™d most plants - reminding ones tomorrow will be done. Drying out pots as felt like was overwatering - will monitor wilting and water tomorrow evening but hopefully wonโ€™t suffer too much. High temps with LEDโ€™s at 60% intensity today. Turned to 70% tonight as need to lower hanging height having LSTโ€™d but didnโ€™t want to upset plants in dark cycle as too late (lights off). Will turn back to 60% and drop to 45cm having seen canopy adjust to LST. 29 Aug - all plants watered w/2ml/L seaweed & 3ml/L flower powerfeed. Learning to control humidity & temps. All progressing. More LST done today but forgot an overall picture! Biscotti Mintz showcasing its strong genetics. 30 Aug - going well! 31 Aug - turned lights from 70-%50 as maybe, maybe(?) too intenseโ€ฆjust felt instinctively to do so. No yellowing but donโ€™t look 110%? 1 Sept - all watered w/ 3ml/L liquid feed, 1L each. Also raised lights a little (5cm) to get better coverage. Looking good. 2 Sept - going well. Seems like plants enjoying 50% light @50cm approx. 3 Sept - progressing further. Moved plants 5-10cm closer to tent door so far plant was under light a bit more so more even. Will maybe up light to 60% commencing week 2 of flower tomorrow. Will water tomorrow having top dressed with organic dry medium bloom nutes to help keep P levels up since low in Powerfeed Iโ€™m using.

After week 16 of this grow my 'Fruity Terps'-plants are ready to harvest. I check the trichome-heads with a handheld-microscope (magnification of 150, available in every growshop) and see that all have turned milky and some start to turn amber already. That means PEAK-THC (=all trichome-heads have turned milky) has been reached inside the trichome and it is time to harvest. If I would let them go longer now and continue to flower them, more of the trichome heads will turn amber as the THC breaks down again to other cannabinoids, and the effect of the cannabis will get more sedative when smoked. For some chronic pain patients this is what they want from their medicine, therefore it is advisable for them to let the weed flower than recommended. The aroma coming out of the tent is STRONG and DELICIOUSLY FRUITY! ๐Ÿ˜ The fade from the flush has turned the bigger fan-leaves yellow or purple now, this shows the plant is using her own sugars now and has used up all nutrients saved inside her. That is exactly what I want, since a well flushed plant ensures a clean, smooth smoke when the buds are dried. This is my MEDICINE and I use it against my chranic back-pain from hernia, therefore I have to make sure I can consume my medicine as pure and clean as possible. All my plants have grown big buds, which are glistening with TRICHOMES, the SANlight EVO4-120 LEDs did an OUTSTANDING JOB! In combination with the BIO NOVA nutrients, all plants THRIVED throughout the cycle and were able to grow healthy to their full potential.

Week 16 Flower: Embracing the Flush & Celebrating the Shine ๐ŸŒŸ Itโ€™s week 16 of flower, and a pivotal moment in the grow journey! This week, weโ€™re diving deep into the flush phase, a critical step in achieving those clean, flavorful harvests. ๐ŸŒฟ Switching over to just water with 0.5 ml/L of System Clean marks the start of what I like to call the โ€œSo Cal Flush.โ€ Weโ€™ll break down the whys behind this practice, the benefits of flushing, and how it sets the stage for smooth, aromatic results. Letโ€™s demystify this important phase together and make sure everyone feels confident implementing it in their own grows. The Room is Glowing โœจ Every plant in the garden is unique, shining bright under the ThinkGrow LEDs! ๐ŸŒˆ Hereโ€™s the lineup of whatโ€™s happening: โ€ข Green Papaya: The frost queen herself, dripping with trichomes, setting the frostiest example. โ€ข Punch Pie: Claiming the crown for the fattest buds in the roomโ€”absolute monsters in size and density! โ€ข Gorilla Melon: A beauty with mesmerizing red reflections dancing across her leaves. โ€ข Papaya Zoap: Still stealing the show with snowy whites and pristine structure. This week was a photographerโ€™s dreamโ€”I pulled out my Sony and Nikon cameras to capture some jaw-dropping close-ups and unique angles. Iโ€™m sharing these shots to highlight the sheer diversity and beauty of these genetics. Tech in Action: TM+ Pro App ๐Ÿ“ฑ Letโ€™s talk tech for a moment.

Its intuitive design and easy configuration make it perfect for beginners, while offering the advanced customization and precision that experienced growers crave.

Day 29 - She's bushed out to the fullest. This is a controversial, but I think essential part of growing. Trust me, what i had removed would have been a waste. I gave all sites there chance to achieve my desired height. Those that didnt, got the chop. Day 30 - Now that is a recovery! I will now focus on maintaining an even canopy. I will only pull down part of the plant that stretch faster. Day 31 - Wettable sulfur and Cali Carb before bud production fully sets in. Wettable sulfur will help with some pest management, not that I have any, powdery mildew, also not an issue, and increases terpene production. Cal Carb is a perfect pair for this as its a readily available source of calcium and carbon dioxide. Calcium seems to be a common deficiency in flower, and the plant loves CO2 during flower. This seems like a no brainer! She also got a nice feeding with some top dresses and water soluble nutrients. Loving the evidental daily changes this plant can produce! Day 32 - Continuing to pull branches down and move leaves for some of these lower sites. Can't help but to have the song, 'Let It Grow', from the Lorax, run through my head everytime I try to move leaves to help these lower sites get light, lol. Day 33 - Opening up as much as I can and tried to keep it all above the net. Vigorous rapid growth in both the plant and cover crop. Day 34 - Showing what it looks like before I take each days pic with the leaves tucked already. Getting hard to keep these leaves down! There's a few lowers I'll likely be snipping to help focus energy to better sites. Day 35 - Let's just take a moment and enjoy these beautiful flowers this amazing Common Buckwheat cover crop is showing off. If you dont know what Common Buckwheat does when growing in your soil, it helps gather phosphorus, attract beneficials, and can be cut down to make compost. Is this even the same plant from the beginning of this week!? Can't wait to see these buds start to stack!

I am very happy with the harvest @21% wet to dry that pretty strong for me, the buds were in the tent for 10 days, the long slow drying process has really paid off. The buds were solid and frosty, this strain was very easy to grow, and like I said Original Sensible Seeds do not disappoint, I have a few more strains by them and cant wait to get them started!

Start of week 6. Smell is getting strong, lots of trichomes forming now and buds starting to swell.
