60x60x120cm tent. Basic cheap one not sure what brand, if any. 200w CFL for veg, and a 250w HPS for bloom. Gonna continue with biobizz and maybe a couple of other supplements later down the road. Soil is biobizz allmix. Says pH ready so no need to adjust. Hopefully that's right!

Good week, all seeds have popped. Only given them the initial watering of 500ml each, gonna give them another 200ml each today probably. Temps are nice under the CFL, but when I plugged in the HPS to test it, they skyrocketed up to mid 30s. May have to get a more powerful fan when flowering starts.

Continuing to grow nicely. I tried the new 250w HPS I bought for a day and my temps shot up to 40 degrees c so gonna stick with the CFL lamp and supplement it with a couple more smaller CFL bulbs.

She is definitely thriving the most right now, looking very nice in my humble opinion lol. Definitely needs the lst I've tried in the last picture. Gonna aim for a spiral shape, god willing haha. Second bend for LST on day 25 and Biobizz grow added from day 24. The other plants are catching up with this on now, but not quite yet.

Proceeding along slowly. Thought I had some pests but upon further research and on the opinion of another grower I think it's good for now. Will keep an eye out though. Slowly ramping up the Biobizz nutes, hopefully will see some pistils soon. Have done a lot of defoliation this week.

More slow going this week. What started so quickly has slowed down, still not the slowest though. Canopy is reasonably even, better than my last attempt at any rate. No complaints, here's to a nice final result!

I think I over watered this one badly this week. All droopy. Hopefully it will recover but some of the leaves are starting to get patchy so I think there is another issue forming. I believe now that it is a pH issue so I have a test pen arriving soon and I will update with results. Tested pH and it looks good at 6.9 so I'm gonna increase bloom nutes cos it could be phosphorus or magnesium.

Bloom is very slow here. Could be cos of my sorry attempt at lst, leaving the actual top way under all the side growths lol. Either way she is progressing and should be done third. Hopefully the droopiness will go away too haha.

Well, training on this plant went a bit funny lol. No real shape to it but lots of budsites nevertheless. Bloom is veeeery slow and the sweet tooth is starting to develop more. Could be some bad genetics, or bad grower haha. Still moving forward though. Leaves are looking a little better after adjusting pH and adding calmag.

This one is far from the prettiest of plants but still seems to be developing lots of budsites. A long bloom like the Sweet Tooth but hopefully that means bigger yield.

Hi Growdiaries! I have looked at this girl under a microscope for the first time and have seen what looks like spiderweb on the trichs. Its silver and black and maiinly on one bud and a couple around it. images in the trichome vids on week 13. Could it be WPM or just debris?

hey Ashbash,good news : it doesn't look like powdery mildew or spider webs ! it's probably some lint from the tent or velcro from the flaps, or any number of other fibery things that end up blowing in the tent and landing on the plant. Trykes look very close ! good luck crossing the finish line ! 🚀

Taking a long time to see Amber on this one. Gonna cut down a branch and see how it smokes. Smell is nice, but not too strong. Think it may be done. We shall see.

Not the strongest strain I've ever seen but yield was decent for the size. Taste is not really there but hey, I grew it haha. Not very dense either but enough criticism. Just expected more after the NYC diesel. Probably won't grow again. Very nice if you're looking for a strain that won't knock you back.

So I think this'll be a vaporiser plant strictly. Smoke isn't that nice but could be my lack of growing skills. NYC Diesel was good in the same environment though but idk. Probably won't grow this strain again. Still, here's to the next strain!

very beautifull flowers and structure my friend! im growing my first flower and i shoose malana bomb. do you know if i keep my plant in a 2liter pot if it will suffer, or if it will just grow small?

@lolita, Hi bud, Thanks for the comment! I think if you use a 2 litre pot it will not be good for the plant. I used 5 litre for this and I would not use again. See my most recent stardawg diary for another 5 litre. I believe it is bad for the roots as they keep wrapping around the pot and the smaller it is the worse it gets. It will definitely grow and produce flowers in a 2 litre pot but not much at all considering how long it takes to grow. I'm going to use only 10 litre from now on. Hope this helps!
