11/5 -- They now have 2 weeks of 12/12 under their belts and it's truly been a tale of 3 plants for the past week and a half. GZ2- This one has the opportunity to meet its full potential. It has stretched to give me this beautiful canopy and very few signs of over feed or stress in it. Hopefully she stays this way. Moby- look like it may have been developing some deficiencies. I fed it a few days ago and it seemed to respond well. Some leaves have gotten yellow but the plant is do thick and dense I'm not worried about a few falling off. All in all, it's been steady eddy for Moby Dick that I now believe is also a Barney's Farm Freebie(the seed is now listed where I buy mine from) I'm not going to change it but if you're keeping track, this is most likely a tent full of Barney's Farm. Gz1- and now the music gets a little more serious. I really started recognizing problems with her right at flip. She has lost a lot of fan leaves due to yellowing,, dark stems and I can tell her branching has suffered because of it. Growth at the bottom looks weak and even wrinkled in some spots. She has burn spots and signs of deficiency galore. But also VERY dark fan leaves. I've just come to the conclusion that flushing was probably my best move. She can still have a week of solid growing. If I can get it corrected now, this plant will still be respectable but the trend is disturbing and alarming to someone who knows how fast they can decline. So in conclusion, things are getting a little hairy. Flowering always brings on a new set of challenges and I'm still learning every single time. Wish me luck this week, I'll need it. 11/6 Updated pic on old friend banana daddy that they shared the veg tent with.

So soon I am going to have to start making some decisions I think on how to care for this. The nutrients in the soil FoxFarms Happy Frog will likely run out in a week maybe? Again this is exactly 3 weeks from planting. So it should probably be week 3, I don’t know how to count. The site wasn’t letting me start with week 1 had to do germination and couldn’t save germ without a picture. I will try to see if I can fix this and shift them all 1 week forward. Again I am a rookie here and will do some reading up on all this when I have time but here are the things I don’t know that am starting to think about. #1. When to start feeding nutrients. I got a General Organics Growbox probably 6 months ago have kept it in my closet in room temperature. When do I start using it? Is it even still good? #2. Transplantation. This plant is growing so quick, I know this pot is too small. So I need to figure out how and when to transplant it and into what size container. This is a small tent 2x2x4. So I can only raise the light so high. And I don’t want to kill it during transplantation. #3. Training, when to start low stress training and exactly how to go about that. Need a plan for this. #4. Topping. When to top it, should I top it. Should I use a different strategy. Need a plan. #5. Humidity. I think I have a solution for this. I know what the humidity needs to be. I bought a humidifier but I did not buy a humidity controller may need one of those or just pay attention to it. #6. What am I missing? I feel like I’m forgetting something. Overall I think it’s going pretty well so far. Plant is growing fast and healthy though I suspect up until now is the easy part. Dresden Green Diamond seems to be a resilient plant, since I haven’t killed it yet. Thanks for following and for all your help I’m sure I’ll get from you peoples. Appreciate you. Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, until next Monday. Ciao.

So I started LST and the girls seem to be responding well to the method. It has now been 4 weeks since the sprout and am I very excited. Might continue veg until it's eighth week and then switch to flowering.

Orange Sherbet FF (Fastflowering) is a finely balanced hybrid that produces some of the tastiest orange-flavored weed out there, making it an excellent choice for top-notch extractions. With up to 26% THC, this citrus terps powerhouse matches its wonderful taste with potency, offering a long-lasting uplifting high that puts you in the right mindset to chill and have a good time. It’s the ideal strain for growers with all levels of experience, especially beginners looking to get their hands on low-maintenance yet highly productive photoperiod varieties that deliver in both quality and quantity as fast as possible and without extra effort. Bud Description This superfast feminized photoperiod strain grows light, almost neon-green colored buds with fat calyxes that get encrusted with trichomes by harvest time, giving them a fluffy, silvery-white appearance. Orange Sherbet FF flowers reek of a very distinct mix of citrus that can be described as a tangerine and orange smoothie with a very sharp and sour background that hypnotizes your nostrils as soon as you take the first whiff. Smoke Reports Despite its 26% THC, Orange Sherbet FF offers a joyful high that’s very calm and relaxing in nature. The effect starts as a slightly euphoric head rush that comes hand-in-hand with a relaxing body buzz, leaving you in a focused, peaceful, and overall happy state of mind. It’s the perfect everyday, all-day strain as its long-lasting high will always put you in the right mood without fail while getting rid of muscle pain, stress, and anxiety along the way.Plant Appearance This is a medium/tall-sized hybrid that grows up to 150cm and yields up to 650 g/m2 while developing that typical hybrid structure. Orange Sherbet FF grows fast and flowers faster, growing super dense buds with a distinctive mint-green color and a high bud-to-leaf ratio, making your trimming sessions a breeze. It’s a well-rounded variety that doesn’t need much maintenance and will thrive in almost every climate, rewarding growers of all levels with extremely resinous orange-tasting buds.

🌱 WEEK 14 FROM SEED — WEEK 11 FLOWER THE GRAND FINALE HARVEST REPORT — SUNDAY DRIVER (Zamnesia Seeds) A full-circle recap, a celebration of two phenotypes, and the sweetest ending imaginable. 🌸 A Quick Recap — From Seed to Here (For Anyone Just Joining Now) This run has been 14 weeks of joy, learning, surprises, heavy colas, and crazy beauty. Two phenotypes, two personalities, one shared soul. From day one, these girls impressed with: Fast germination Explosive early growth Huge stretch A super crop that healed perfectly Dense, deeply frosted flowers Towering structure A sweet, fruity, unmistakable terp profile This entire diary was a ride, and today: we close it properly. 🌿 The Final Weeks — Frost, Weight & Pure Beauty By the end of week 11 flower, both phenos were massive, fully packed, and dripping in trichomes. You could see: full resin heads thick frost rails on sugar leaves swollen calyxes and an aroma that filled the room before you even touched them These were big, heavy lifters. And we had to support branches constantly — if not, they’d bend or snap from the weight. Pheno #2 literally harvested herself from being too heavy. 🌙 The Harvest — One Gentle, One… Dramatic Pheno #2 snapped her main branches under the weight of her own colas. We walked into the tent and found her lying on the floor saying: “It’s time.” We listened. Pheno #3 remained strong, standing tall until the end of week 11 flower, finishing beautifully and perfectly ripe. Both were harvested with care, love, and laughter. Drying — The Classic 60/60 Two-Week Method We dried slow and steady: 60% humidity 60°F / 15–16°C ~14 days hanging upside down Why? Because this method preserves absolutely everything: flavor terpenes smoothness color burn quality potency No shortcuts. Just pure quality. ✂️ Trimming — All by Hand, As It Should Be After two weeks, the flowers were ready for trimming. We used: professional curved-point scissors gloves the Trim Bin gentle hands and a fully clean environment Why hand trim? Protects trichomes Respects the bud shape Avoids bruising Keeps the final product premium The trim was also collected — and it was beautiful, sticky, full of crystals. 🌈 Final Weights — Official Numbers Here are the correct finished, dried, trimmed, and cured weights: Pheno #2: 166 grams Pheno #3: 159 grams 🔥 Total: 325 grams of premium, candy-sweet Sunday Driver flowers This is an exceptional yield for two plants, especially with this type of dense, terp-loaded structure. 🍦 Aroma & Flavor Report — “True Sunday Driver” Aroma (Before Grind): Candy-sweet Tropical fruits Grapes Berries A hint of creamy vanilla Slight floral freshness The moment you open the jar, the room goes fruity instantly. Sticky, loud, full-body terp presence. Aroma (After Grind): Ice cream sweetness Citrus zest Sugary candy Notes of pastry cream A subtle earthy undertone that gives balance Flavor (On Inhale): Smooth fruit sorbet Creamy berry yogurt Sweet citrus glaze Candy-coated sweetness Flavor (On Exhale): Soft vanilla Sugary fruit leather Sweet grape peel Dessert-like finish Overall Impression: This is exactly why the strain is called Sunday Driver. It’s slow, sweet, comfortable, and perfect for an easy Sunday ride through your feelings. Every puff is a dessert — full, thick, smooth, and incredibly enjoyable. 💨 Effects — Balanced & Beautiful Sunday Driver delivers: calm relaxation a warm mental uplift stress relief peaceful creativity no anxiety no heaviness a comfortable floaty happiness Perfect for: • evenings • social fun • creative time • gaming • movies • relaxing with music A feel-good hybrid in every sense. Curing — Groove Bags & UV-Proof Jars We cured everything using: Groove Bags (technology that stabilizes humidity automatically) UV-proof jars (protects cannabinoids and terpenes from light damage) Why this method? No burping needed Long-term freshness Zero mold risk Terpenes remain sharp and bright Jars maintain perfect darkness, keeping potency intact The result? Two phenotypes that cured into identical-looking, identical-smelling, identical-quality medicine. 🌱 Reflecting Back — What This Grow Taught This run showed: Sunday Driver genetics are strong, resilient, and heavy hitters Super cropping works Supporting branches is not optional Aptus + Plagron = incredible synergy Good environment + good genetics = magic Slow dry + long cure = perfection These were some of the heaviest colas grown in this room so far. ❤️ Thank You — To Everyone A deep thank you to: The entire GrowDiaries community The new growers The OGs The silent readers The lovers The haters The curious ones The platform Our sponsors Zamnesia genetics GrowLED ThinkGrow LED TrolMaster Future of Grow Everyone who supported, commented, viewed, or followed This diary was written with love, passion, and honesty — and we share it with everyone. 📌 PS — Support Your Branches If your plants get heavy — support everything. Use yo-yos, bamboo, nets, anything. Heavy buds are a blessing, but without support, they will break Pheno #2 is proof — she took herself out by collapsing under her own beauty. 📌 PSPS — Don’t Be Afraid of Super Cropping If you ever hesitated about super cropping: don’t. This diary shows it works flawlessly. It increases yield, controls stretch, and opens the canopy.

Ended up with 13.5 oz wet so I’m expecting 5-6 oz dry which would be awesome! I actually snapped the main stem during LST and I taped it back together, it healed and ended up being my biggest cola!

Semana bem excitante uma vez que as flores começaram a aparecer. Continuei espalhando os galhos na grade para que cada flor receba luz. acabei tendo que tirar algumas fotos noturnas pois não estava chegando em casa a tempo de vê-las durante o ciclo de luz. Ainda regando apenas com água.

Hey there, green warriors and cannabis enthusiasts! 🌱✨ We’ve made it to week 10 of flowering with our incredible Runtz F1, and the anticipation is at an all-time high. This week has been all about those final touches—letting the plants reach their absolute peak before the big harvest. The Runtz F1 has truly outdone herself, and now she’s just about ready to show us everything she’s got. Let’s dive into what’s been happening during this critical final week of flowering. Week 10 Flowering Progress 🌿🌟 This final week of flowering has been a masterpiece in slow, steady ripening. Here’s what’s been happening with our star plant: • Bud Development 🌸: • The buds have reached their maximum size and density, with each cola a solid mass of sticky, resin-coated goodness. The trichomes are so thick that they give the buds a frosty, almost white appearance, making them look like they’re covered in a blanket of snow. The compact nature of the Runtz F1 has resulted in some of the most beautiful buds we’ve seen this grow. • Trichome Maturity 🔬✨: • This week, the trichomes have matured beautifully, with a perfect blend of milky and amber colors. The ratio has tipped slightly more toward amber, indicating that the cannabinoids are fully developed and the plant is ready to deliver a potent, well-rounded high. This balance ensures that the effects will be both uplifting and deeply relaxing—exactly what we’re looking for in this strain. • Aroma and Terpene Profile 🌿🌸: • The aroma in the grow room has hit its peak, filling the space with an intoxicating blend of sweet, fruity, and gassy notes. The terpene profile is fully expressed, promising a flavorful smoke that’s as complex as it is enjoyable. This final week has really brought out the best in the Runtz F1’s aroma, making it clear that we’re in for a treat once these buds are cured. Final Preparations Before Harvest 🌾✂️ With the buds fully matured, this week has been all about the final touches to ensure everything is just right for the upcoming harvest: • Continued Flushing 🚰: • We continued with the flush, ensuring that any remaining nutrients were cleared out, leaving behind clean, pure buds. The plants have responded beautifully, with the fan leaves fading as the buds take on their final form. This step is crucial to ensure that the smoke is smooth and the flavors are pure, free from any lingering harshness. • Environmental Control 📊: • Maintaining a stable environment has been key this week. We’ve kept a close eye on temperature and humidity, making sure everything stayed within optimal ranges to prevent any last-minute issues like mold or mildew. The plants have been in a perfectly balanced environment, allowing them to finish strong. Anticipation for Harvest 🌱💚 As we reach the end of week 10, the Runtz F1 is in the best possible position for harvest. The buds are bursting with potency, the aroma is at its peak, and the trichomes are telling us it’s time. However, we’re holding off just a bit longer, making sure that every aspect of the plant is fully ready before we take the final step. The excitement is real, and the anticipation is almost overwhelming. We’re just days away from harvest, and everything is set for an incredible finish. The Runtz F1 has been a dream to grow, and we can’t wait to see what the final product will bring. Stay tuned for the harvest report, where we’ll take you through the final steps and celebrate the culmination of this amazing journey! 🌟💚 #RuntzF1 #Week10Flower #CannabisCommunity #GrowStrong #FinalTouches #StayPositive #GreenMagic
