2nd week has been great , the lady is growing strong 💪🏼 , feeding her with the canna suite and keeping the oh at 5.8 , watering every 3/4 days .
Nothing major to report , next week I will start the LST
We’re entering **Week 3** of the grow, and things are looking great! This week, we're starting **LST (Low-Stress Training)** to encourage those side branches to stretch out and develop, maximizing the potential of our plants without causing unnecessary stress. A gentle bend here and there is all it takes to expose those hidden nodes to the light!
On top of that, we're introducing **canna terra nutrients** into the feeding schedule. With roots established, it’s time to give them the boost they need for healthy growth and strong development. Staying balanced with the right mix of nutrients will keep everything on track for an epic yield.
Keep an eye on those leaves, stay on top of watering, and let the training begin! Week 3 is where the magic starts to really happen. 🌿🔥

We’ve hit week 4, and everything is moving along perfectly! This week involved some hands-on work with the plants as we performed both LST (low-stress training) and defoliation. The plants responded incredibly well, showing no signs of stress or issues from the adjustments. The canopy is spreading out nicely, allowing for better light penetration and airflow, which should really help in the coming weeks.
One of the most exciting developments this week is the beginning of the flowering stage! The first signs of buds are appearing, and it's clear the plants are shifting their energy toward flower production. To support this critical phase, we'll be transitioning to Canna Flores in the next feeding. This nutrient blend is designed specifically for the flowering stage, so it should give the plants exactly what they need to thrive.
All in all, it’s been a successful week with no setbacks. We’re looking forward to seeing those flowers really start to take off in the coming days! 🌿💪
Wow, what a journey in few days it exploded ! is absolutely thriving and hitting all the right notes. This green powerhouse is a big eater of the Canna Terra suite—literally devouring nutrients and showing no signs of slowing down! 💪
The flowers are finally beginning to kick It's truly an exhilarating sight, promising a bountiful harvest ahead. 🌸✨
I've been diligently practicing low-stress training (LST), and let me tell you, it's paying off! Carefully bending and securing those branches is allowing the plant to stretch out and soak in every bit of light. The canopy is looking fantastic! ☀️
And let's talk about defoliation—it's become a crucial part of the process. By selectively removing some leaves, I’m maximizing light penetration and air circulation, helping those flowers to flourish even more. Each day brings new growth, and it’s an epic transformation to witness!
I can’t wait to see how this beauty continues to develop over the next few weeks. Here’s to more green magic ahead! 🎉💚"
Hope this captures the vibe you're looking for!
What a week it’s been! The Tropicana is thriving and flourishing beautifully in this crucial flowering stage. The buds are developing nicely, showcasing their full potential, and the overall health of the plants is impressive. I’m feeding them with the Canna Terra suite every 2 to 3 days at the normal dosage, and they’re responding enthusiastically.
I’ve been careful with my low-stress training (LST), gently bending and guiding the branches to promote even growth without causing stress. It’s rewarding to see how resilient they are! The colors are deepening, and I can spot trichomes forming, indicating a promising quality product ahead.
The sweet and earthy aroma is becoming more pronounced, making each visit to the garden feel like a mini celebration. I’m excited to watch them develop further and can’t wait for what the upcoming weeks will bring in this amazing cannabis journey!
Hi growers , iwo
Seeing when is the right time to start the Pk , any advice ? As you can see it in the pic I don’t think it s time , any advices ;) ???
I use canna pk 13/14
Start using pk after 3/4 flower weeks when ur plant has produced buds. Pk helps the buds fatten up. So use it until 2 weeks before harvest.
Canna pk is really good!.
Go to cannas website or google and search for canna nutrient calculator. They give u the most correct answer my friend! Good luck 😃 it’s the best way! Very easy to use
P and K depend on active transpot to enter the plant. The plant releases 'carrier proteins' that only attach to specific molecules -- we have a similar system in our digestive system too. Only a small portion enters through mass flow - indiscriminately with water diffusing into roots.
this is why recent studies show that after a certain point, there's no benefit to adding more P and K above critical levels around roots that make for unimpeded 'active transport' explained above.

As an axample - it is not 100% proof and it explains its own limitations if you do read it.
But, studies find you need the 'right' aboutn of p or k, not just add a shit ton and it magically gets better. There's a goldielocks zone that you want to maintain over time - even in vege.
there are facets that impact these numbers a bit -- e.g. the type of N you provide can vary. This test is using N that requires microbes to break it down which explains why it's much higher than other suggestions for N. also is 190mg/L isn't elemental ppm.
Your VPD will impact what you can amp it up to without toxicity symptoms. So, your garden will vary from another.
The plant's health is your best guide without lab equipment. When you give too little or too much relative to rate of growth, the plant makes it obvious. read and react... go ahead, add your pk-booster, but take notes about timing and concentration... realize that symptoms may take weeks to show. if you consistenly have a burnt up canopy 5-7 weeks into flower or even sooner, realize it's likely the pk booster or otherwise due teo your choices of fertilization. Let the plant decide or you are doomed to burnt up plants in flower in perpetuity.
This week has been fantastic in the garden! The flowers are blooming beautifully, showcasing vibrant colors and healthy growth all around. I’ve noticed that the buds are growing in volume as well, becoming fuller and more robust, which is exciting to see.
She has been eating a lot—around 2 to 3 liters of Canna Terra suite every day. It looks like she's really responding well to the nutrients, thriving more than I could have hoped for. I’ve also started incorporating the PK nutrient boost this week, and it seems to be making a significant difference in the bud development.
All in all, everything is on track and looking promising. I'm eager to see how these plants continue to progress in the upcoming weeks. Can't wait for the next update!
Sure! Here’s a longer version of your cannabis diary entry for week 8:
Week 8 has arrived, and things are looking fantastic in the garden! The anticipation is building as I watch my plants thrive. 🌱 The buds have developed beautifully, showcasing that signature sticky texture that signals maturity. It's a pleasure to touch, and the aroma is absolutely divine—earthy with sweet undertones.
🚿 I'm currently on day 4 of flushing, and I can already tell it’s making a significant difference. This process is crucial for ensuring that my plants are free from any nutrients that might affect the taste of the final product. I’m committed to bringing out those rich flavors and smooth smoke!
As I observe the trichomes, I notice they’re getting thicker and glistening in the light, indicating their journey towards ripeness. I'm particularly excited about the future, as these tiny crystals are responsible for the potency and effect of the buds.
💭 I’m feeling optimistic about the harvest ahead. Each day brings me closer to that moment of enjoyment. I’ll continue to care for my plants diligently to ensure they reach their full potential. Can’t wait to see how they turn out!
Stay tuned for more updates, and happy growing! 🌿💨
