Week 2 Unveiled: Cherry Cola Auto Flourishes in Style Hi Guys , as our botanical journey with the Cherry Cola Auto from Fast Buds Seeds unfolds, the second week has proven to be nothing short of a horticultural spectacle. Buckle up as we dive into the lush details of a week that witnessed a significant move – the grand transplant. Our star, the Cherry Cola Auto, is not just growing; it's thriving. With a green thumb and a heart full of enthusiasm, we decided it was time to elevate its living space. Enter the 16L fabric pot – a home fit for botanical royalty. Why fabric pots, you ask? Well, these porous wonders enhance aeration, drainage, and root development. It's like giving our plant its very own spa day, promoting a healthy and vigorous root system. But the transplant wasn't just about upgrading real estate. We sprinkled a bit of magic in the form of Aptus Holland Mycor Mix on the roots and their surroundings. This mix is a microbial powerhouse, fostering a symbiotic relationship between the roots and beneficial fungi. Think of it as a green handshake that boosts nutrient absorption and overall plant health. To ensure our Cherry Cola Auto feels at home, we prepped the soil with 75g of Aptus All-in-One Pellets (NPK) and some Aptus Mycor Mix Soil. The pellets provide a balanced nutritional feast, while the Mycor Mix adds another layer of microbial goodness. It's like creating a gourmet meal for our green companion, satisfying its every nutrient need. Post-transplant, our plant received a special elixir – the Veg Aptus Recipe. This concoction includes 0.15ml/L Regulator, a nutrient transporter with Mono-silicic acid, Boron, and Molybdenum, ensuring a smooth nutrient journey. The caMg-boost at 0.5ml/L and Start Booster at 0.25ml/L add the essential building blocks for robust growth. Topping it off is the Enzym+, a 10ml/L dosage, ensuring a nutrient buffet for our Cherry Cola Auto. Our green companion now resides under the Lumatek 465W Zeus Compact Pro LED in a new tent. The move was orchestrated with precision, thanks to the assistance of Miss 420 during the transplant. The Lumatek LED provides a spectrum of light mimicking the sun, promoting photosynthesis and bud development. It's like giving our plant front-row seats to a botanical light show. As we wrap up this detailed report, a heartfelt thank you to Fast Buds Seeds, your creation is a botanical symphony. Aptus Holland,Blessed with your sponsour is the best that ever apened to me and my gardens, your products are the secret ingredients to our success. Grow Diaries community, your camaraderie fuels our passion. Here's to another week of flourishing growth, vibrant leaves, and the promise of a bountiful harvest. Until next time, keep cultivating the green magic!

We did another round of defoliation to help with light penetation, its already a tight squeeze in the 5x5 and we havevanother week or more of stretch. We keep the bottom 1/3 of every plant stripped bare, this really seems to help airflow and minimize "popcorn" nugs..we read some great things about this strain on leafy and im dying to try it.. I hope we can pull everything at the 9week mark and have some processed in time for Christmas 🎄 🐱 ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_

36x36x72 Tent with 2 COB Light's Day 1: Dropped 5 OG Kush Auto's and 1 Mystery Seed (more than likely a photo) into water to germinate. Day 2: Placed into damp paper towel. Day 3: Dropped into Coco Loco, placed dome on top. Day 4: One shell opened and pushed through. As the seeds were all given to me and my girl put the mystery seed with the others, they got mixed up. IS this the mystery seed??😵 Day 5: Got 5 pushed through now. I have only spritzed the dome and the ground since Day 1 of watering with 30 ml of de-chlorinated tap water ph 6.5. I have 2 TS 600's should be arriving Saturday to add to my CREE lights. Day 6: I gave em 30 ml more water this morning. Coco still looked wet but was dry. The 6th seed had sprouted under the soil. I felt it should have been pushed thru by now. Dug down about .375" and there she was. Still alive?? Day 7: Have given the girls another drink. This time 25 ml with a touch of AN Coco Grow. The 6th seed has turned her nose up to the light and seems to be doing fine. 👌 They are all reaching for the sky. Seemed like they had grown a half inch since this morning before work! 💪

Hey Leute, 🌞 Diese Woche melde ich mich etwas Später. Die Drei Ladys 🥦 sind in der ersten Blüte Woche auf ca 70cm gewachsen. Der Dünger wurde umgestellt und es fängt so langsam an zu Duften. 😁 Der Filter läuft auf kleinster Stufe und die Luftfeuchtigkeit liegt zwischen 55 % - 51 %. Heute wurden die Damen mit ca. 40ml B.A.C Folia spray besprüht. Wünsche euch einen schönen Sonntag 🍀✌️🙏

Ciao a tutti questa settimana speriamo vada meglio della scorsa perché su due piante si sono formate delle bruciature nelle foglie dovute al troppo fertilizzante probabilmente 2ml/l di big Bud è stato troppo per una pianta 88% sativa !!! I fiori vi sembra che si stiano ingrossando correttamente ? Visto che adesso bagno con solo acqua e con degli anti stress (Rhino skin) per farle riprendere Ho aggiunto oltre hai 400w hps 3x45w led

Still monsterous. Had to bend down more colas during this week!! Crazy plant. She will be so much better when I can spread her out, the amount of flowers on her are simply amazing. I honestly didn't know what fimming her side branches would do, but it looks like it's paid off in spades. A few more weeks to go yet, her trichomes have not developed yet. Anyway, apologies for poor pics this week, they're all getting too big to get in and out the tent without damage. Last week I snapped the main cola on the CBD 😭

🌿 Week 4 Veg – Beauty, Branching & Bio-Tech Symphony Grower’s Journal – BlueBerry by Zamnesia Seeds | Entry 005 Welcome to Week 4 of Veg, and let’s just say it clearly: These BlueBerry girls are growing like there’s no tomorrow. Branching like crazy, stretching into their potential, and looking like true queens under the lights. ⸻ 📸 Visuals to Match the Growth This week, we pulled them out of the tent for a special photoshoot, just to honor how gorgeous they’ve become. Their structure is perfect, the leaves are flawless, and the pace of development is exactly where we want it. These are the kinds of plants that make growers pause, smile, and say, “Yes, this is working.” ⸻ 🌱 Nutrition – A Balanced, Thoughtful Feed We’re continuing our Aptus nutrient regimen, supporting explosive vegetative growth while maintaining biological harmony in the root zone: Current Feed (per liter): • Regulator – 0.15 ml: Cell wall integrity, anti-stress armor, and enhanced nutrient uptake • CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml: Supporting structural development and leaf strength • All-in-One Liquid – 1 ml: The nutritional foundation, covering macro and micronutrients • 🌿 Start Booster – 0.25 ml: Still supporting root density, node stacking, and early branching 🌿 Why we’re using this: Because we’re in rapid growth mode, and we want to fuel expansion without pushing too hard. This combo delivers strength, balance, and root vitality, exactly what we want before any training or pre-flower stretch. ⸻ 🌞 Lighting – Now a Two-Zone Setup We’ve expanded the operation—stretching across an 8x8 space, creating two active light zones: ⚡️ Zone 1 – Black Series 600 by Future of Grow • Full-spectrum LED designed for early veg and structured growth • Gentle but powerful PPFD—keeps internodes tight and leaf color rich ⚡️ Zone 2 – THINKGROW Model One LEDs • Ultra-efficient LEDs with controllable spectrum • Ideal for pushing vigorous vegetative growth across a larger canopy • Controlled via the TrolMaster system for precise lighting schedules and dimming 💡 Both systems are delivering clean, cool light, helping shape the canopy while managing energy use smartly. ⸻ 🌬️ Airflow & Environmental Control – Total Tech Harmony We’re not just growing plants—we’re growing a controlled microclimate, with every element tuned: Airflow Setup: • Exhaust: Two 6” inline fans • 1x Spider Farmer 6” Exhaust w/ Carbon Filter – Controlled via Spider Farmer GGS Controller • 1x TrolMaster AeroFan 6” Exhaust w/ Carbon Filter – Controlled via TrolMaster Tent-X Controller • Intake: One 6” fresh-air intake pulling air into the tent 🌀 This system keeps: • CO₂ fresh (~632 ppm) • Temperatures steady (~27°C) • Humidity ideal (~57.4%) • And filters in place keep the air pure, clean, and odor-controlled, even at this early stage 🧠 Sensors & Controllers: • TrolMaster Tent-X Ecosystem – the brains of the setup • Managing lights, exhaust, intake, CO₂, temperature, and humidity • Connected to: • CO₂ sensors • Temperature & Humidity probes • PPFD sensor (light intensity measurements for accuracy) Every zone, every variable is dialed in with care. ⸻ 🌿 Why All This Matters – Creating Plant-Centered Intelligence We’re not just creating a grow tent. We’re creating a living, breathing system that adapts, protects, and encourages growth. Each element, from airflow to light to nutrition, is designed to support the natural intelligence of the plant. And the BlueBerries are responding. They’re thriving, stacking, stretching, and showing gratitude through leaf expression, branch angles, and rhythm. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Week • More branching, tighter nodes • Early signs of pre-flower development • Possibly early LST if needed • Continued sensor data collection as we dial in the automation ⸻ 🙅‍♂️ What Not to Expect • No topping yet—structure is still unfolding • No transplant (they’re in final 11L fabric pots) • No overfeeding—we’re keeping it steady and strategic ⸻ 🎥 Video Update – Inside the Setup A video has been added to this week’s update, just a quiet visual journey through the setup: 💡 No narration, just the gear, structure, and rhythm of a garden built with intention. The systems speak for themselves. ⸻ 💬 Final Thoughts – BlueBerry as a Statement This isn’t just another grow. It’s a special BlueBerry run. A classic cultivar grown with modern methods, storytelling, and reverence. We’re blending nature with tech, instinct with data, and roots with rhythm. Thank you for being here. The best is yet to grow. 🌿 With light and love, Your faithful garden companion 🌱💚 DD💚 As always, this is part of our ongoing Grow Series, an open diary of everything we do and why.

Hi guys ... always Peyote Critical .. like in the diary with the other two sisters ... this one is following a different diet, practically Vegetarian / almost vegan .. I have been given the same care of its companies and, in addition to the soils, already awarded for the other two and a super soil created by me, I give them molasses, for about 5ml in 1,5l h2o .. Later I spoiled it a little with a dessert based on fruit created by macerating peal of organic banana (x 10 days) previously dried ...and today, Friday 27th, I finely chopped a bit of barley malt and I made a top dressing, wetting with water in mix with 3ml topmax for 3l h2o, to increase the malt action .. for more information on other, I refer you to the diary of the two without this type of SS, where I also wrote a more detailed review on light, etc. all ... "the only "difference lies in the substratum ... this is a super soil mixture, which I have been trying recently, but which worked great with other plants .... I hope you like it 🙂.... thanks for reading👍 ... the next .... Bye

Had a few hiccups. Plants ended up developing a nitrogen toxicity from too much worm casting. I simply did a flush on them with water PH’d to 6.3 and allowed the soil to dry out
