Some of you may have wondered:
Why do I use CO2 at average 950 ppfd μmol/m2/s (moral flow)?
The answer is quite simple. Because of lack of space in some regions of my cultivation area, I simply cannot keep the ideal distance to my Sanlight high-performance lamp, due to some height growth of various strains. And so some of the main colas have ppfd values of 1250 μmol/m2/s and even more...
So this is how I manage to achieve and compensate for such high radiation levels even with a CO 2 balance. And I have to say, my strategy to avoid various light stress symptoms works just fabulously. In combination with CO 2 implementation, my babies are simply unbeatably insensitive to light. Thats it!
Beginning of 3rd week flowering:
Again feeding my babies by 36 hours fermented potions of Bio Tabs Kompost Tea PK-Booster (15 g pro Liter) and added:
5ml Orgatrex/Liter
1 Spoon of Bactrex
1 Spoon of Mycotrex
1 Spoon of Mycco-Vital
1 Spoon of Dynomyco
A little tip for those who are interested in small modifications that have a big difference or influence - on the result - effect - beauty - health - taste! Before adding microorganisms or beneficial bacteria or Mycorrizae and Trichodermas, please use oxygen-saturated water. On the one hand, unwanted chlorine gases evaporate and the small world of the microbiome becomes even faster and more rewarding in compost tea to sprout.
Last but not least for this week, I would like to introduce my reasons, why I prefer growing biologically and sustainably.
First of all, it’s something which suits very well in these times/days we are living now. Sustainability is a big need and task for our planet. 🌎 Nature means life. Our home, the air we breathe and everything that surrounds us. Not just today. Hopefully tomorrow as well.
Maybe I'm starting to protect our environment on a small scale, but maybe I can also make a big difference at all.
If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change...
I thought about what’s the difference, between Mineral Feeding and Super Soil Feeding.
It’s very easy. Biologically Growing is a similar process than the natural soil activities out there in the lap of nature’s. So plants has to work and interact with the microorganisms and microbiomic communities in the soil. So the plants will never get lazy like the lazy ones of mineral feeding growers.
If you grow biologically, you will feed the soil first and the microorganisms will support every parameter next to your plant conditions. And that will generate an unbelievable spectrum of Terpenes and Trichomes you will never forget.
It’s the same comparison, when you daily visit McDonalds and you eat only fast food. How does your body and mind react on this shit for money?!?!
May I invite you to think about it…
See you next week dear Growmies! Have a nice Weekend and take care…
Peace out!
Addendum for Day 53:
At the moment we unfortunately have another winter onset here in Germany. This means that I am forced to take additional heating measures due to structural facts in order to be able to keep the temperatures constant. After all, just tonight the thermometer climbs again to -1 degree Celsius.
In addition, my exhaust air system runs out of my bedroom terrace and I therefore grow winter and summer with the patio door open. Well, sometimes I experience real weather-related challenges. But all in all, no problem...
"Where there's a will, there's a way."
Addendum to pouring out the fermented PK tea: I always administer half a liter of lukewarm aerated water with 3.5 ml of cannazyme per liter to each plant. This means that the "root machine" is not supplied with supplies unprepared and the nutrient solution can thus also be better distributed in the soil. Since I also work with cloth shoes, I spray them evenly moistened everywhere with water that is also warm before pouring them out from the outside. This has the advantage that the moisture stays where it should: in the pot!
... I did the math today ;-) We are still in week 7 until this Friday. And week 8 starts on Friday! OMG... still so much time yeahh!
Today my Fast Buds Sour Jealousy and Sweet Seeds Big Devil and Dark Devil Automatics arrived. I'm looking forward to it.
This time Fast Buds next Time Sweet Seeds. Love them too. Very beautiful genetics.
Today a review video of the beginning of week 3.
At the time of the pictures, I had minor signs of nitrogen excess. (Light peaks first at the crown of the roof and then slightly continuing to the middle section.) I then painstakingly racked my brains as to why this could be. I found that very slight dry spots had formed and therefore the root found small accumulations of nitrogen that caused its problems. But then, when I carefully homogeneously checked the moisture content in the substrate, the problem evaporated again. However, they had not shown any loss of growth rate during this time. Nevertheless, they developed as expected.
They Strawnanas had no problem with that.
In the end, I always have a hard time killing them. But I guess that's the way things go.
We live and die.
We come and go.
But it's not there yet. ;-)
Tomorrow is day 56.
Tomorrow’s updating day!
Can't wait to see their progress.
Have a good time and see you tomorrow… 🏽🕊️

Day 50: 150ml water per day, 18/6 light schedule, approx 50% humidity, fertilization on Monday, Wednesday and Friday happens with BioBizz family and on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday with bat guano and Epsom salt. They like the new Marshydro 600W. Their height are different between 15 and 45 cm.
Day 55: This tent is crazy :D All of them okay, especially Critical Orange Punch is a monster above all. Sour Stomper is cute, and the rest of them just keep flowering. Hopefully their buds will be nice thick :)

First watering without nutrients.
The cold temps are bad. The buds are small, could be more.
But im happy no mold or fungi.

The 4 Blueberry Hill were grown with 2 Banana Pudding all from Herbiesheadshop...Love all there seeds they have to offer...these were Herbiesseeds..the Banana Pudding came in the desert mix and the Blueberry Hill came in there female pack...I was happy with the grow they are not the biggest producer's, ( I've had way bigger) but all together the taste and the buzz are all there on both.....Seeing these came from Herbies line and never grew any from them, I was happy....No problems throughout besides some bananas popping out on one of the Banana Pudding plants...go figure.....But it did no harm do to the girls almost being done and not enough time for that to hurt the plants....
The total bud time from the time I changed the light cycle...was 52 days for the first Blueberry Hill, then 53 for a Banana Pudding, then 54 and 55...Then the last plant I waited and let ripen up which she didn't come down until day 68 with all kinds of amber on her.
The total amounts on the 4 Blueberry Hill dried, Jared, and burped.....I don't weigh wet weed....was 24 ounces. 2 plants produced a little over 7 oz a piece....1 plant produced 6 oz and the smallest one that is first in the video produced a little over 4 oz....Not a bad little grow..
Until next time, smoke a fatty, help out your fellow grower.

Another week another diary we are keeping busy in these difficult times spending some extra time with our ladies and we also started a new diary we really appreciate if you can check it out and give us a like
as for these ladies we added hy-pro Generator to the mix this is a new hy-pro additive which helps with maximum growth, protection against stress, strengthens the immune system and leaves no residue in the water again we are amazed with the quality of the hy-seeds, the plants look really great and the flower development is off the charts the combination of hy-seeds and the hy-pro nutrients created a winning team
we removed the bottom 30% of the leaves and twigs so that the plants does not put effort in the little flowers that get trown away anyway
that was basically it for this week
Talk soon
Stay safe, stay green
Cheers,
Nibameca

Day 33: What an amazing height and bud gain in just 3 days! Lady #1 is 67 cm tall now, her sister a tad smaller. Both still have a great color, and I dared to cur away just the lowest branches and leaves that do not look like they could gain height in time. Really enjoying this strain so far!
At the end of their day, they are a bit dropping leaves, so clearly no hunger for more light. The impressive growth speed continued on their buds: Tallest lady at 70 cm now.
Their next morning shows growth is still at an impressive 5 cm/day as lady #1 with her leaves erected again stretches now 72, the maximum of my previous growth. Pulled the lights as close as possible to the ceiling and hope they won’t make it much more than 1 m. I activated the Sansi 30 W folded wings LED to give them somewhat of a morning and evening light and to add some more light to their overlapping center branches in the middle of "their" day. Sadly that’s causing some interference to the timelapse videos, but I can’t say they’re perfect if it wouldn’t.
Watching the timelapse video of day 34, I have the feeling the additional light rather irritates them. Maybe the interference is not only visible for electronic eyes. I’ll keep it off next day for comparisons.
Day 35 shows stretch speed has reduced indeed and they seem to be concentrating on leaf and bud growth instead. 75 cm, so we are currently at "only" 3 cm/day. Watered them with a HPE/Bud growth mix again last night, about 1 l each.
Well, forget my words about reduced growth. After they recovered during the night, we are at 77 cm for lady #1.
Which measured at 78 with hanging leaves in their day’s evening. I must have missed a day number – day 36 concludes their 5th week. I gave them another 2 l of fertilised water each and will lave them for the weekend again.
Video shows that growth concentrates now more on leaf and bud development than on gaining height. So I guess my 160 cm tent will be sufficient. For a moment I was worried, but it looks like stretch is over. Anyway, time to rearrange the camera next week. Leaves are running out of focus.

Yoooo :)
The ladies are slowly eating what's left in the leaves. They got a dose of Final Solution and now only water.
The harvest will be a little earlier due to mold problems. The terpinator + bloom stimulator did the job, the girls are covered in oily resin like never before :)
Purple Punch, Cannatonic and Glookies already in the darkness before cutting :)
Definitely you should check these lamps because they work amazing - https://bilberry.pl/en
Older ladys bloom 62 day
Younger ladys bloom 55
Caramelo bloom 50 day
Cheers :)

I've added a video review about this strain, and here's the information about Beary White from mephistogenetics.com:
-Beary white is a medium sized variety, she doesn't veg for too long before rapidly entering the flowering phase. She has a nice balance of resin coverage on both leaves and flowers. Flowers grow nicely compact and the quality is great. She is a lovely all-rounder in many aspects.
-Effect - Strong, Happy, relaxed, but not too inda-couch.
-Medicinal Benefits - Great strain for pain and stress relief.

First sign of mold formed. I cut the branch, remove moldy bit and drying it.
I needed to get her inside as soon as possible, so this made me harvest the Peach Puree CBD faster as she was using the lights, I brought the church in and put her next the peach for her final night, you can see her in the 3rd picture. I needed to do some super cropping to get a more even canopy so that the light gets as many buds as possible. Was still not happy with how the lower branches are getting barely any lights so I did some foliation and tied the lower branches so they are higher (you can see some side ways branches in the video, that is because I pulled them in).
Had to some reflective material lying around, so I wrapped that around her and she is looking very comfortable in her new home now.
I've put some hay which I had laying around on the soil with some leaves I cut to act as some mulch which could be why she is drinking very little water, haven't had to water her since I brought her in 3 days ago (mind you she was under a lot of rain before that).

🗓️ Week 11 – Flower Week 7 (MAC n Cheese only)
This week brought a noticeable shift:
After raising the input EC to 2.0, runoff EC spiked to 2.2–2.6 – a clear sign of salt saturation in the medium.
Despite that, pH remained stable between 6.2–6.3, and no visible signs of overfeeding or nutrient lockout appeared.
🔧 Adjustment planned:
Starting next watering, EC will be reduced to 1.6–1.7 to rebalance the substrate and maintain nutrient uptake efficiency.
🌿 Current plant status:
MAC n Cheese is looking incredibly strong – healthy, vigorous, and showing no stress despite the high EC in the runoff.
Frost production is in full swing now, and the buds are packing on serious weight.
🧀 Visuals & Flower Development:
The buds are massive, dense, and coated in a thick frost layer – already resembling little icicles.
She’s maturing into something special. ❄️🔥

So we got some very bushy plants. I topped them three times and trained them sideways and the plant focused it's energy on growing out sideways.

Was gone for 4 days and Wholly cow has she stretched and grown! Update: did some defoliation, the roots were going into the gravity fed system so I trimmed the roots coming out of the bottom and elevated the pot for 4 hours to air prune the rest. Cut down one plant so she got to stretch out more!

😻 Week 6 is here!! The girls are starting to get really heavy, we may be forced to cage the rest for support, we couldn't move them much this week for fear of them collapsing..not recognizing or stopping the runaway stretch soon enough has come back to bite us..lesson learned about this strain.. the canopy is terribly uneven lol, we're just kinda letting them do their own thing at this point, we did drop 1 of 2 lights to accommodate the shortest of the group. The buds on this strain are incredibly dense, it looks like it will be some pretty good smoke ..we'll likely cut all feed by the end of this week, giving them roughly 2-3 to flush out..thanks for reading if you made it this far and happy harvests friends!!! 😽💨❤️💡🌱

😾 Well it happened, they finally buckled lol, this bud is super dense..and more popcorn than we usually get ( ill make hubby clean it lol 😸) but even that will have some weight to it. We staked 2 of 3 plants and decided to switch to ph water for the remaining 3 weeks (or so)..thanks for stopping by grow family and happy harvests!! 💡🌱❤️😽💨
