Day 88. Day 39 from switch. Temp is still higher than I'd like but has cooled by a couple of degrees. Trichome production is increasing and the girls are really starting to smell now. Hoping any day they will really start to pack on the weight! They have a lot of leaves, and could have done with a lot more training, but I'm happy with them so far considering.

So this is the Tear Down week. The timing of it makes it so i will need to the harvest flag in a few days when I can weight and test the plants. I have included the Cleaning, and Cutting and some Root Porn. I will make the harvest post in about 4-5 days, when I can trim these plants. There is a lot of Plant here. I got way more than I was expecting. I don't have a scale that measure this amount of plant, without taking like 10 measurements and then adding them together. So I will just be posting the dry weight. I will post the wet weight as dry weight * 1.65. Autopots: Wow, what a great product. I have been blown away by how well and how easy it was to work with them. They really did solve the watering issues. Excellent product. If you are a beginner, start with Autopots. -= Lessons Learnt =- - Overdrive the air to your Autopots. In my control plant, I used a small rectangle air stone (instead of a standard air dome). This lead to root rot and some other issues, it also put significantly less air into the water. The root rot, give the material for the Brown Algae to grow. Using a huge Air-disc-Air-Stone would be an excellent combo to mix in with the air dome itself. Something like this: https://www.amazon.ca/Pawfly-Diffuser-Suction-Hydroponics-Aquarium/dp/B01MY3AQ33 at the bottom and the air-dome on top of it, will be what I do with my next experiment. - Air stone in the reservoir. I had two instances where algae grew into the res. An air stone would have helped. It would have also helped my control plant get less root rot. Given the amount that the air-domes and air sources got engulfed, having the water have more o2 in it would have only been beneficial. - Don't grow 6 plants in a 4x4. Since my control plant was about 1/8th the size of the others, I think I could have grown 5 in the shape of a 5 (on a 6 sided dice)⚄ This placement would give a much more spaced canopy for airflow and more importantly light. The sides of some of the plants were lighter green and produced larf due to lack of light penetration. - This tent was on 19-5 schedule. This worked out very well for this strain. After every lights on, they were in the praying position, so this strain was able to recover in that 5hrs off. If I had more seeds, I would run these again, and try 20-4. I think this strain could handle it. All for all, I think I'm going to 19-5 as my default timing. This kept up a solid DLI. - Staring at .9EC (really .7 EC cause my water here is .2 EC) Then bumping up at .1 a week, until 1.6EC worked out VERY well. I experimented on this crop all the way up to 1.9EC, which burnt the tips of this plant. I think if I did this strain again, I would do 1.6EC until 3-4 weeks left then crank it to 1.9. It did plump them up when I went to 1.9, however it left them looking rough. Bulk was added though. - Sticking to 6.0PH for all of veg, and 2 weeks into flower worked great. The plant had solid and consistent color and leaf shape . The plant's did get hurt, due to some issues (as noted on the weeks). I switched to 6.5 PH in the last 3-4 weeks and it helped them recover, and plump up noticeably. -VPD. The #1 thing I focused on was VPD. I keep it .9kpa range, as best as humanly possible. It was honestly, HUGELY noticeable compared to my other grows. I know truly understand the value of properly dialed in VPD. This is the one lesson that will stick with me forever. - Super-cropping: On the plants I give the chiropractic treatment too, had much thicker stems as much larger channel internally. I did this treatment to 4 of the 6, and the 4 that had it done has larger buds and recovered from defoliation faster. TLDR; VPD is king. Super-cropping is worth the time. Keeping PH and EC dialed in were all wins. Autopots kick ass.

--- ## **The Teresa Palmer Experiments** ### **Week of 20–25 May 2025 | Vegetation Ends, Flower Begins** --- ### **20/05/2025 – Lights On** **Last week of veg for MS and TF.** Lights 20/05/2025 Lights On! Last week of vegetation for MS n TF fingers crossed lol Lights dimmed back to 320watts, slite cannoing. The Clones are in cynogentics; slowing things up! Opened up a few more air holes. Sprayed with a weak solution of HPFG 0.05% All looks okay! "Few more days and the "infection leakage/cancer" the infection literally runs away from Hydrogen Peroxide Food-Grade treatment and leaves the blood brain barrier" Healing with no-scars! Me and the plants are healing well! Segwaying! Lights Off MS is still looking saggy curly after the transplanting into fresh rockcubes. Turned light back down to 300watts. The Clones are doing okay after the weak sprayed solution of 0.05% HPFG. TF is looking vibrant in Quarantine and has recovered from Septoria tritici, she took 1 week longer than MS to show signs of recovery and the transplantion short. Maybe TF; her resilience or immune system isn't as strong: due to her breeders problems picking the best Genetics. Who knows! Midday: Great; here’s a **kombucha-based microbial tea recipe** specifically designed to benefit cannabis plants (especially during **veg and early flower**) while being safe and effective. This tea boosts root health, improves nutrient uptake, and strengthens the plant's immune system. --- ### **Kombucha Microbial Tea Recipe for Cannabis (Veg & Early Flower)** #### **Ingredients:** * **Non-flavored raw kombucha**: 30–50 ml (2–3 tbsp) * **Unsulfured molasses (blackstrap)**: 1 tsp * **Worm castings or high-quality compost**: 1 cup * **Unchlorinated water**: 2–4 liters * *(Optional: 1 tsp kelp meal or liquid seaweed for added minerals)* #### **Instructions:** 1. **Fill a bucket** with 2–4 liters of dechlorinated water. 2. **Add the worm castings or compost** into a mesh bag or stocking and submerge it. 3. **Add the kombucha** and molasses to the water. 4. **Aerate the mixture** using an aquarium air pump and stone for **24 hours** (no more than 36 hours). * This activates beneficial microbes and keeps anaerobic bacteria away. 5. **Strain and apply** immediately after brewing. #### **How to Use:** * **Soil or Coco Drench:** Use once every 1–2 weeks during veg or early flower. * **Hydroponic Drip/Reservoir:** Only use filtered tea (strain well) and **add at a 1:20 dilution** (e.g., 250 ml tea per 5L reservoir). Ensure high aeration. * **Foliar Spray (Optional):** Dilute 1:30 and spray during early morning or lights-off time. --- ### **Tips:** * Don't store the tea — use it fresh. * Avoid using in late flower to prevent unwanted microbial growth on buds. * Always monitor pH and reservoir cleanliness if used in hydro. = = = = = = " I used 50ml of diluted mother juices from the SCOOBY 50ml to 15ltres?Will this be beneficial enough at that ratio? " You're welcome! Using **50 ml of diluted mother liquid from a SCOBY (Symbiotic Culture Of Bacteria and Yeast)** into **15 liters** of hydroponic nutrient solution is a **gentle, safe starting point** — and yes, it can still offer **beneficial microbial effects** without overwhelming your system. ### Here's what you can expect at that ratio (1:300 dilution): #### **Potential Benefits:** * **Mild microbial boost**: Helps seed your root zone with beneficial bacteria and yeasts, supporting plant immunity and nutrient cycling. * **Low risk**: Very unlikely to disturb pH or oxygen levels in hydro at that concentration. * **Safe introduction**: Ideal for testing how your plants and system respond before increasing doses or brewing a full compost tea. ### A few tips for best results: * **Add during veg or early flower** for best microbial integration. * **Monitor water clarity and root color** over the next few days — healthy roots should remain white or light tan, and the water should stay mostly clear. * **Smell test**: If the reservoir develops a strong sour or funky smell (like vinegar or yeast), it could indicate overgrowth. In that case, do a partial flush. ### Is it “beneficial enough”? Yes — as a **microbial nudge**, it’s a great start. For stronger biological impact, you can brew a tea like the one I mentioned earlier, but what you did is safe and should offer mild support without disrupting the balance. = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 21/05/2025 TF and MS are responding beautifully to the 50ml kombucha infusion — their energy is shifting. I gave them a gentle foliar mist today, using a diluted H₂O₂ solution at 0.05%. The lights are on… and so are they. So am I. "There is so much quiet power in the act of letting go." I refused to abandon these plant experiments, even when the signs were uncertain, even when growth was slow. And now — they’re beginning to thrive. It’s humbling, and it’s deeply affirming. When I got sick and chose to continue my healing journey, many people — even family — stepped back. Some gave up on me. But I didn’t. I chose not to drown in pity. I chose to believe in the process. I chose to stay with myself — and now, just like my plants, I’m beginning to bloom. It’s a good feeling. A quiet victory. A sacred one. To be honest; i can't wait to smoke the "Jesus out of these. No chicken eggs to count. All is good amd all is swell! --- **Sacred Grow Log – 21/05/2025** **Lights Off – Silence Speaks** Today, the garden sleeps — and so does the surface, while the unseen stirs beneath. I’ve increased all nutrients to **veg-phase strength** — the plants have called for more, and I’ve answered. There’s a slight wilting in their posture, and whispers of calcium-magnesium imbalance, like a subtle signal from deep within their cells. It's a language you learn to read with time… like decoding ancient symphonies written in chlorophyll and veins. I moved things around today. Shifted the layout. Rearranged not just space — but energy. **TF’s branches have been folded inward** — a ritual of redirection, bending her into a **Freaky Bonsai form**, compact and deliberate. She's not broken — only reshaped. Like fate twisting its limbs to adapt, to survive, to transcend the ordinary. There’s a strange beauty in distortion. Sometimes the most powerful growth is born through the unnatural — when chaos becomes art. Nothing in this garden is random. Even the smallest change is a spell cast — and I'm both the scribe and the vessel. --- Here’s your journal entry reworded for YouTube, keeping it reflective and engaging, while staying within community guidelines and adding a hint of poetic insight: --- 22/05/2025** **Lights On The Garden Awakens** The plants are responding beautifully to the kombucha; straight from the mother culture. It’s sharp, alive… almost like vinegar, full of life. There’s a distinct energy shift in the room: subtle but unmistakable. I’ve considered building a simple setup to start brewing a living tea with worm castings and other natural inputs. But I’m holding off; we’re only about halfway through this grow cycles. Timing matters, and introducing live cultures too deep into the flowering stage could unsettle the balance, especially with pH fluctuations. It’s a delicate dance. Let's get it right now in small stages. For now, I’ve added another **50ml dose** — just enough to stir the microbial world without tipping the scales. The plants speak in posture and pulse: and today, their message is clear: *they’re grateful*. --- **"I’m glad some people still read. Really read. Not just skim for a reaction or scroll for the drama. But sit with the words Feel the space between the lines Catch the meaning that isn’t yelling for attention. In a world where folks jump quick, Where bandwagons fill fast, Where opinions echo louder than understanding It’s rare to find minds that pause. Minds that ask, *'Is this truth? Or just noise dressed as truth?'* Minds that don’t just follow faults… But look for foundation. So shout out to the ones who read before reacting, Who think before typing, Who question the easy answers. Because awareness like that — It ain’t loud, But it’s powerful."** When we are at our lowest; We are often alone that's where inner strength the fight to keep pushing When we are at our lowest; We are alone 😔 The fight continues on; The weather keeps thrashing But in my blood the ions now fire Recovery dwells as cancer expires!

I wasn’t aiming for it, but the first thing to disappear? Dandruff. Gone. Just like that. See, most people don’t know; Dandruff isn’t just dry skin. It’s a dance of micro-parasites, feeding off the mites that live on your skin — a layered ecosystem most don’t see, but I felt it. I lived it. Some might call it a coincidence, but when I brought oxygen into the equation, those organisms couldn’t hold space anymore. Modern academics might describe them as cousins to scabies; a miniature model of parasitic behavior. But I call it a quiet cleanse.

She promised the world—balanced feeds, clean roots, whispers of a new era—but lately, she’s smelled a bit “off” (literally and metaphorically). Plants were talking. Leaves started showing those tell-tale chlorotic freckles—like a pixelated disease creeping across their emerald faces. **CalMag? More like CalMaybe.** I sniffed the stock bottle—yup, something fermented this way came. That bottle’s been shelf-sitting too long and probably died quietly while I was looking at trichomes. Poor thing. So what did I do? **Flushed the whole system**—cleansed the sinuses of the root zone with pH’d water like a hydro colonic—and gave them something they’ve been secretly craving: **Advanced Nutrients Bloom A+B**. The girls perked up like they'd just had their first espresso in weeks. Now, here’s where it gets interesting: This wasn’t just a feeding adjustment, it was a **nutrient resurrection**. To tackle the mag deficiency, I’m planning a soft foliar CalMag mist (0.5ml/L) and possibly a micro dose of **Epsom salts** in the reservoir—keep it simple, sulfate sharp. **Observations:** * Interveinal yellowing? Present. * Freckled spotting? Yup. * New growth still pushing strong? Absolutely. * Spirits? Weirdly high. Like a fog's lifted. --- **The Teresa Palmer Side Note:** Every flush I do, I imagine my own system being purged. The metaphor writes itself. Plants, like people, need time to detox and start over. And just like me, these girls are bouncing back stronger with a new protocol, clean lines, and renewed light. --- **Side note: Teresa Palmer is now spread eagled - slite pruning of under growth to help her upper top shine - I love the smell of freshly cut leaves/flowers 💐 you know what I mean? Yeah; you know what I mean 😏 P.s all the running I've been doing lately; i need a plunge in a ice bath and some magnesium myself! Knots in my right thigh! Nothing worse!

I'm on my own dying! - Dying of Laughter i bet; but that's also true; being on the edge of life; makes one crack-up. What if 'this is it' ? - suddenly anxiety doesn't exist anymore; just like' Michael Jackson - ''This is it''...... - here i stand...., i'm in the light of the world............................... i feel grand......and this hope......., that i feel......, yes i know, yes for-sure that is real............. I never told....... a real word... about you; to no-one, being in the light, isn't my plan....., but if this boat..... has to sink......, then who-cares what i do, never-mind what i think! .......- I'm spilling my heart out to help you........, but i don't see no-hands...........because i am alone,......but i am not lonely........i have me......... the good company, its just me. - In This world isn't one of 'Harry Porter', no magic script to follow; i have to find my own way in health and healing and i sure do not trust the governments way of appealing, for money for healing, to make you ill again, while reeling, the money pit, they sit and print the money,...l. so ask yourself; what are they appealing?

The new **organic feed** is settling in well—plants are responding with signs of revival. The leaf stress is stabilizing, and new growth has a spring to it. Everything feels like it's leaning toward the light again. **Monkey Slapz (MS):** The light intensity has been nudged up to **420 watts**. MS is looking dense and bushy now. We’ve officially entered the **transition to flower**, though she’s taking her sweet time with the flip—deliberate, cautious. We’re helping the process along by **reducing light exposure by 1 hour daily**—a gentle nudge into bloom. **The Clones:** The baby clones are flashing fresh signs of growth. Once they gain a bit more strength, they’ll head back into **cyanogenics/propagation** for preservation. If all goes well, this cohort should be enough to fuel **next year’s entire grow cycle**. (Yes, we plan ahead—and we clone for a reason!) **Observations:** * Signs of feed uptake and bounce-back across all strains * MS is bushy and stable; light reduction in effect * Clones recovering well; root development expected next --- **The Teresa Palmer Side Note:** Reinvention doesn’t always look flashy—it’s often slow, hidden in the rhythm of light shifts and silent cell growth. We’re in transition. And like the plants, I’ve learned: the slow bloom is often the strongest. Let’s grow. --- 26/05/2025 Just making it clear for people! Its Ai edited not Ai creativity! タイザー = Tai-za - Tizer My new dogs name! /////////////////////////////////////////////// Some HIStory on TF: Gorilla Glue #4 Marijuana Strain 4.6 356 votes| 238 reviews Strain Information Indica Dominant Hybrid Strain Indica Dominant Hybrid - 60% Indica / 40% Sativa THC: 32% Gorilla Glue #4, also known as “Original Glue,” “Gorilla Glue” or “GG#4,” is a slightly indica dominant hybrid strain (60% indica/40% sativa) created through crossing the infamous Chem's Sister X Sour Dubb X Chocolate Diesel strains. This celebrity strain is a favorite of patients and breeders around the world for its super heavy effects and long-lasting high that will totally knock you flat out. The high comes on with a building effect, slowly filling your mind with a lifted euphoria and light creative energy. As your mind lifts higher and higher into happiness, an almost glue-like sense will kick in, leaving you mentally stuck in this blissful state and without a care in the world. This effect will soon spread throughout the rest of your body, leaving you hopelessly couch-locked and immovable for hours on end. With these hard-hitting effects and its super high 18-32% average THC level, Gorilla Glue #4 is often said to be perfect for treating ADD or ADHD, Bipolar Disorder, chronic pain, depression, chronic fatigue, insomnia, appetite loss or nausea and migraines or headaches. This bud has a spicy chemical chocolate flavor with a heavily diesel exhale that turns slightly sweet the more that you toke. The aroma follows the same profile, although with a heavy peppery pungency to it, too. Gorilla Glue #4 buds have small rounded forest green nugs with furry amber hairs and a coating of tiny amber-tinted white crystal trichomes that are dripping with sweet sticky resin. --- Conclusion: My anszwer Much to my surprise, the first time I tried this strain, it *absolutely reeked* — duct tape, wood glue, and that unmistakable Gorilla Glue funk. It even left that tacky residue on my fingertips, like what you’d get after peeling off heavy-duty duct tape. The taste is just as intense: a peppery, chemical-laced chocolate diesel blast that clings to the throat, often leaving me coughing and a little phlegmy. The air it leaves behind is thick with that old-school, nose-wrinkling stank. It’s unapologetically loud. This is *Back to the Future #2* by Tastebudz — a feminized strain created by going “back in time,” tracing the genetic lineage of *Future #1*, and selecting parent strains that expressed the most desirable traits: rich terpene profiles, potent effects, resilient structure, and heavy resin production. The result is a carefully bred evolution — forward-thinking, but deeply rooted in powerful old-school genetics. But here’s the real story: *this is the only strain I’ve ever tried that actually helps me run*. And I mean that literally — I use it to aid my running routines. It’s become essential to my treatment plan for brain cancer. I live with chronic nerve pain, inflammation, and a heavy, oppressive mental fog that can make even walking feel like wading through static. This strain? It clears the storm. While it knocks most people out, for me, it *activates*. It doesn’t just dull pain — it opens up a space in my head where I can *move*. Without it, I honestly don’t think I could run at all. With it, I can lace up, breathe, and push through the haze. Mentally, it flattens the chaos — that frantic, scattered, ADHD-like static that’s always buzzing. It gives me calm, clarity, and a softened edge on the pain. And physically, it lets me break through barriers I wouldn’t otherwise reach. In small to moderate amounts throughout the day, it doesn’t sedate — it *liberates*. I don’t use it to get high — I use it to *show up*, to train, to fight back against something that’s trying to slow me down. It’s stony, yes. It’s intense. But for me, it’s also the cleanest clarity I’ve ever found in this battle — and easily one of the most important strains I’ve ever encountered. Not just a favorite — a lifeline.

The plants were so crowded I decided to put them into a Larger tent to allow some light to the lower bud sites and to help lower the humidity amongst the plants. I'm sure they will love the extra space. The light has now been raised 20cm (20cm taller tent) Allowing me to turn out right up which is 45000 lux in the centre right below it. I will up the bloom to 2ml/l this coming week.

Nice bud formation this week. I didn't notice that the reservoir pH jumped up to over 7 pH for at least one fertigation. That seems to be what caused the reaction seen on the leaves in the form of some yellowish spotting. I corrected the reservoir, hopefully this fixes it.

The SCROG net was installed on the last day of Week 6, I included a couple pics from that night, to compare with how the plant looked the next day, which was the first day of Week 7. My nerve damaged fingers caused me to be a little rougher with her while the net was going on than I like, but as you can see, she bounced back very quickly and was reaching for the light less than 24 hours after being mangled lol. I will continue to systematically defoliate the upper canopy every night or two for the next several weeks, and will completely strip most everything below the net. Every night or two I'll tuck any branches that need tucking, and will remove any fan leaves covering bud sites. She spread out pretty well in the net, and truth be known i probably could have gotten away with a 6 week veg after, plants are a decent size in the net with the stretch left to go. Flip happens at the end of Week 7 The manganese issue seems to be getting much better by the end of the week. Will keep my pH levels at 5.8 for the remainder of this grow, and any subsequent grows. I also devised a fan mount to save on space in the net. Instead of standing the fan, i simply cut a piece of 1x3 to length, drilled 2 holes in each end, large enough for zip ties to pass through. then I simply zip tied it to the tent poles, took the legs off the fan, and screwed the base to the board. I placed a piece of foam on top, as the screws were a shade long and I was afraid the small protruding tip would eventually puncture the tent. Works much better than expected. No movement in the mount at all.

Ladies are doing great, finally fixed the pH problem, so the lockout should be fixed. Great growth, amazingly icy buds, especially pheno #1 is looking incredible. Smells of sour cherry candy with some hints of that gelato too.

Hello, everyone. This week went great. We pruned our girl and took clones from her. Once the clones take root, we'll transition our girl to the flowering stage. Thanks to everyone who follows my diary, and thanks to those who don't forget to leave likes and comments.💪

At day 35 and they have begun to flower. I cut back the amount of nutrients I was using to help with the tip burn. So far so good!
