Grow 003 West Coast OG & Girl Scout Cookies Still going .. trichomes are still not turning amber.. 15L Air pots, BioBizz light mix, extra perlite, Bio Nova Microlife, The ExHale Homegrown CO2 Bag

Plants look,smell, and feel amazing. I think they've put on most of their weight now and the buds are starting to get really cloudy! I started the slightly older plant in the front on her flush at the end of this week. I believe the one in the back seems to be a week or 2 behind.

Ich hasse es wie die Pest, schlimmste was es auf der Welt gibt, Harvest… 😭 3 Tage meines Lebens schon in die kacke versenkt… denke für die nächsten Ernten wird eine Trimm Maschine angeschafft

Final days coming up, should be hanging next week. Can’t wait to try her out.

Week 13 Day 80 Decided against the chop this weekend... Good Friday Agreement 😜 Put her into darkness on Monday. Then its Goodnight Vienna. Made a wee video of her journey, as this will be the last update until harvest. Thanks for all your advice✊🏻

Had someone to come over and fill the tank, you can clearly see the difference in pictures! ahah Things are looking great for sure, can't wait to get back🔥

Just started the 12-12 with carbon load and this thing sprouts like crazy...

The pheno 5 has started to throw out HAZEY smell in the tropical mix. I can smell the slightly musky/cheezy/spicy scents of the haze. I think this is a trait that I will have to consider throughout the selection, since that haziness is certainly something we want to have when experiencing the Liberty HAZE ;)

Alright guys so here's to last week My first time doing sweet seeds And I must say it was really awesome Yo, I ran my first Cream Mandarine XL from sweet seed and at the very beginning thought she was going to die, she was sad and having it rough but with lots of caring she came back to life and even better, this is also one of the longest autos and the tallest I've had with many colas, Im still learning so I should probably train them better in the long run once I get to run another one, well if you look into my profile at my grow diary I'm running gorilla XL right now and I'm training her little by little, more precisely I'm making sure she's getting plenty of light so we don't waste any single spot of energy once she's got to bloom!! But hey we keep talking bout cream Mandarine XL and it's sad to say goodbye but it's also her time, she's got to the point of no return and we've got to take her out Thanks a lot for everything pretty girl You rock and I love sweet seeds Thanks a lot for those good good smokes Sweet smokes to all of you running them genetics also thanks a lot to the whole community who supported me in the whole process I do appreciate it Also thanks again sweet seeds Apollo for your support letting me run your genetics and given the opportunity to show the world my farming level Hopefully with the great people around I will become better :') Alright now time to harvest this girl Peace and love brothers If you got any questions just shoot

Great growth has continued with no issues other than the occasional dew spot on the leaves as they thicken up! Turned light up to 215w from 100w, installed new exhaust fan and finally got the carbon filter in. The plants have stretched about 4" total. I did a pretty good defoliation this week removing about 6-8 massive clones that never broke through the canopy and a bag of lower and large fan leaves. I also started about mid week adding in the nutrients for bloom first Voodoo, Rhino Skin, Nirvana at 1/4 strength. Then gradually adding Bud Candy and Bud Ignitor with a little B-52 after defoliating while still using the Grow A+B. Switching to 12/12 after today and will apply one more dose of B-52 and Nirvana and ramp up to 1/2 Strength on the other supplements. Happy Growing!!!!

🔥 Off to week 3 we go with the start of Day 15! 🔥 Couldn't be much happier with the progress so far. All my cuties are developing nicely, gaining lots of leaves and the stems are getting more robust & thick every day. I now turned up my SF SE3000 to around 70% with 50cm distance. Halved the amount of Rhizotonic and now started adding Cannazym. I'm still going slow with watering and only upped the amount to ~ 250 ml. What I'm so far most pleasantly surprised with, is the fact, that all 4 cuties look the same. Super, super strong genetics here from Mephisto. 💯 Looking forward to see their progress in the next few days. Stay tuned for updates & thanks for reading! 🌱

She‘s doing okay. Buds are building pretty nicely. Top leaves are yellowing just a bit.

SUPER INSEEDIOUS

Week 10 brought on a wave of maturity. The plant is clearly in her final chapter - the fade has intensified, but it's graceful and expected. Buds are swelling, the scent profile has deepened, and structure remains solid and symmetrical. 💛 Yellowing & Defoliation I removed a fair number of yellowing fan leaves this week. Most came off effortlessly, the stems giving way with a gentle pull. The yellowing has crept upward slightly, but no signs of distress or runaway deficiency. It's senescence - and it feels like the right time. 💧 Feeding & Watering This week I broke my usual rhythm and fed twice in a row, both times at full strength, which the plant handled perfectly. The yellowing seemed to halt afterward - no fresh tip burn, no clawing. Nutrient mix (per 2L water): 3.5 mL Micro 3.5 mL Grow 5.0 mL Bloom (PH’d to 6.43 using hard tap water) On Day 70, she was visibly dry, so I gave her 2L of plain pH 6.43 water. She drank it eagerly - dryback is getting quicker as the buds pull harder now. 🌿 Aroma & Structure She's putting out a layered, sweet-and-spicy scent - cookie dough, citrus peel, pine, and a warm touch of cardamom. Colas are dense, resin-heavy, and impressively uniform. The trellis net came off this week to open up the canopy and prepare for harvest. 🧠 Harvest Considerations According to Zamnesia’s specs, she could be ready around now - but visually and chemically, she’s still not there. I'm aiming for a harvest on Day 80 (July 24), just before I leave. Someone else will handle the chop shortly after I leave for vacation. The trichomes were still mostly clear at the end of this week, with no amber visible yet - but we’re watching closely. I’m not chasing heavy amber, just looking for that sweet spot of peak cloudy with a touch of amber for depth.

😗😫😏😏

Hello everyone and welcome to Week 7 It's been nice seeing the trichomes shine all around the buds while they fatten up each day. Pot still drying...Probably will leave it a couple more days to see and start off with 1ml per gal of Tiger Bloom to help out a bit. Cya all next week

Herrrrro gang! Welcome to another week of Daank's grow! 8/2: Brought back the Great White. I was reading that it works well in conjunction with other root excelurators, like Rapid Start. I got 2 more temp/humidity sensors for the tent. It allows me to keep track of 100% of what is really going on, I find it to take away worry (b/c temps are very important!). Today was a "eureka!" moment in terms of understanding run-off pH and it's value to telling the grower how healthy the plant is and what nutes may, or may not, be needed. I also got some new LED glasses so I don't burn my fucking corneas when tending to the garden - they are phenomenal and I suggest them if you grow with an LED. Check the videos and photos. Pistils are growing rapidly and baby budlets are starting to form. I'm actually getting a nice subtle purple color - it's very neat. Today's run-off pH was 6.3, and I gave it 6.3 for water - so that's a good sign (I bounce the pH all around from 5.5-6.3). I'll keep track of this moving forward in the diary. Minor defoliation. ***Pro-Tip: If you're wondering what the run-off should be... around +.5/-.5 of what you put in is good. But this also might not mean anything... so many different opinions on the web. ****: My Spotify Playlist for my plants: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0ydAFulbzDlqFr5WIZdfM1?si=r5M5H83BSQ6tOE5pk9Bg4Q Day 38 - 8/4: Lil'budlet's are poppin' up all over. By the end of this week I assume we'll be in full swing. Day 39: I have ordered new nutes, Advanced Nutrients. The reviews, photos, and research all point to using this for the best results. I found them to be a bit expensive, but if I can always get perfect pH values without much of a hassle... I'm down. They will be here by end of the week and I'll transition that over this weekend. I can't wait. Day 40: 8/6 - Advanced Nutrient nutes arrive today. Watering will be a pleasure. The plants look great. The buds are real. Small smell. Trimmed last night quite a bit for bud production. They love George Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue". It perks 'em up.

Very saddened by the turn of events, 3 herms, 2 different grow environments, but each tent had another strain growing along with it. No seeds or problems with the Cookies strain… I had no power outages, no light leaks, no schedule changes, and performed relatively little defoliation during flower. To me, this cannot be attributed to stress, as they showed no sign of stress or deficiency’s throughout the grow. Long story short, booooooo.
