🌸🍏✨🍭🌸🍏✨🍭🌸🍏✨🍭🌸 Hi and welcome to another Kannabia grow! This time I’m running their Apple Fritter (feminized photoperiod). She’s going to veg under 24hr light and be manifolded. Still cleaning the rest of my Candy Cream GF (11.04.25) β€” going to sow the seed tomorrow (12.04.25) *been lazy, sowed on 14.04.25 🌸🍏✨🍭🌸🍏✨🍭🌸🍏✨🍭🌸 --- πŸ’­β—πŸ’­β—πŸ’­β—πŸ’­β—πŸ’­β—πŸ’­β—πŸ’­ ❗Events & thoughts worth noting❗ πŸ’­β—πŸ’­β—πŸ’­β—πŸ’­β—πŸ’­β—πŸ’­β—πŸ’­ 12.04.25 (GW1) – Cleaning + flushing the old coco coir.

Solid startπŸ‘Œβ™₯️ 23.04.25 (VW1) – Minimal burnt tips πŸ“Έ β€” not progressing, not a concern. 26.04.25 (VW1) – Started using the new batch of FPJ/FFJ https://growdiaries.com/diaries/266849-grow-journal-by-yan402 30.04.25 (VW2) – Increased TriPartMicro & GreenBuzzBloom 10ml β†’ 15ml 03.05.25 (VW2) – Increased TriPartMicro again 15ml β†’ 20ml, topped the plant, and added final layer of clay pebbles around the base, trimmed side branches and did LST in preparation for "manifold" πŸ“Έ 08.05.25 VW3 finished manifoldπŸ“Έ 13.05.25 VW4 Increased TriPartMicro to 30ml and GreenBuzzBloom to 20ml. 15.05.25 VW4 Done defoliation and LST πŸ“Έ 18-19.05.25 VW5 pruned all the shoots bellow my "mains" and did a full defoliationπŸ“Έ 24.05.25 VW6 increased GreenBuzzBloom to 30ml 04.06.25 VW7 did a cleanupπŸ“Έ 11.06.25 VW8 increase TriPartMicro to 40ml 17.06.25 (VW9) – Final structure pass πŸ’ˆπŸŒΏ Did a clean perimeter prune + removed weak shoots. Ended up with 12 tops, was aiming for less, but she made the call Didn’t fight it, just shaped it the best I could Airflow’s good, structure’s stable πŸ›‘ No more cuts until post-stretch Pics coming shortly 😘 Flip coming soon β€” we’ll see how she handles it. 20.06.25 VW9 Switched lighting to 12 hours, may the stretch begin 🀞 22.06.25 VW10 Did a good LST session,made some pics, and came to some conclusions and a small change of plans: Originally planned for 8 mains β€” long, spaced colas and maybe a couple stronger β€œtitans” if she wanted to go that way. But she’s showing me something else, and I’m not here to fight her β€” just guide her. Now after stretch, I’m keeping side shoots only if they: Fill real canopy gaps Don’t crowd neighboring tops (minimum 15cm spacing) Aren’t growing into walls or toward the next plant Anything too close, too low, or heading into shade gets removed. No point forcing it. Looks like I’ll finish with 14–16 solid tops, depending on how she settles. I’m just trying to give each one enough light and space to stack properly. No overcrowding, no larf β€” just letting her do her thing with a bit of structure. Increased Tri Part Micro to 50ml as well. 28.06.25 VW11 one week since I flipped to 12/12 and she is stretching nicely, a bit shy in showing pistils compared to the Fantasy Feast regulars I have in the same tent. 29.06.25 VW11 increased GreenBuzzBloom 30β†’ 60ml 06.07.25 FW1 TriPart Micro: 50β†’ 30ml TriPart Bloom: 0 β†’ 20ml Home-made FFJ/FPJ (Watermelon + Pumpkin): 10 β†’ 30ml 12.07.25 FW1 GreenBuzzBloom 60 β†’40ml, TriPart Bloom: 20 β†’ 60ml, fpj 30β†’60ml 19.07.25 FW3 Got some bleached tops, been out and about at job interviews and didn't notice a last minute stretch spurt 😭, should recover fine though plenty of time left 😁 22.07.25 FW3 TriPartMicro 30β†’20ml , TriPartBloom 60β†’80ml , GreenBuzzBloom 40β†’50ml 24.07.25 FW3 Cal-Mag 60β†’40ml 26.07.25 got thrips but handled them with extra airflow and defoliation. 29.07.25 FW4 GreenBuzzBloom 50β†’20ml, Home-made FFJ/FPJ (new batch) 60β†’120ml 31.07.25 FW4 Home-made FFJ/FPJ (new batch) 120β†’200ml πŸŒ±πŸ’¦πŸŒ±πŸ’¦πŸŒ±πŸ’¦πŸŒ±πŸ’¦πŸŒ±πŸ’¦πŸŒ± 🌿 Day to day tasks & actions 🌿 πŸŒ±πŸ’¦πŸŒ±πŸ’¦πŸŒ±πŸ’¦πŸŒ±πŸ’¦πŸŒ±πŸ’¦πŸŒ± 02.08.25 FW4 – Fed 5l of #1 β†’ 2l runoff 03.08.25 FW5 – Fed 5l of #1 β†’ 2l runoff 04.08.25 FW5 – Fed 5l of #1 β†’ 2l runoff 05.08.25 FW5 – Fed 5l of #1 β†’ 2l runoff 06.08.25 FW5 – Fed 5l of #1 β†’ 2l runoff 07.08.25 FW5 – Fed 5l of #1 β†’ 2l runoff 08.08.25 FW5 – Fed 5l of #1 at 75%β†’ 2l runoff 09.08.25 FW5 – Fed 5l of #1 at 50%β†’ 2l runoff (*RUNOFF reused for tomato plants) πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆ πŸ’§ Nutrients in 30L #1 πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆ πŸ’§ TriPart Micro: 10 β†’ 15 β†’ 20 β†’ 30 β†’ 40 β†’ 50 β†’ 30 β†’ 20ml = 0.67ml/L 🍢 TriPart Grow: 0ml = 0.00ml/L πŸ’§ TriPart Bloom: 0 β†’ 20 β†’ 60 β†’ 80ml = 2.67ml/L 🍢 GreenBuzz Bloom: 10 β†’ 15 β†’ 20 β†’ 30 β†’ 60 β†’ 40 β†’ 50 β†’ 20ml = 0.67ml/L πŸ’§ Cal-Mag: 60 β†’ 40ml = 1.33ml/L 🍢 Home-made FFJ/FPJ (new batch): 10 β†’ 30 β†’ 60 β†’ 120 β†’ 200ml = 6.67ml/L πŸ’§ pH Down: Citric acid (BuxXtrade) β€” adjust to ~pH 6.0 πŸ“¦ TOTAL: 360ml per 30L πŸ”¬ 12.00ml/L πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆ βš™οΈβœ‚οΈβš™οΈβœ‚οΈβš™οΈβœ‚οΈβš™οΈβœ‚οΈβš™οΈ βœ‚οΈ Tools & equipment βœ‚οΈ βš™οΈβœ‚οΈβš™οΈβœ‚οΈβš™οΈβœ‚οΈβš™οΈβœ‚οΈβš™οΈ βœ‚οΈ 2Γ— MarsHydro SP3000 βš™οΈ MarsHydro 150mm ACF Ventilator βœ‚οΈ Trotec dehumidifier (big unit) βš™οΈ Mini no-name dehumidifier βœ‚οΈ Kebab skewers (LST – stainless) βš™οΈ Wire + roast skewers (LST assist) βœ‚οΈ Scissors (HST) βš™οΈ Vacuum (for spills & cleanup) βœ‚οΈβš™οΈβœ‚οΈβš™οΈβœ‚οΈβš™οΈβš™οΈβœ‚οΈβš™οΈβœ‚οΈβš™οΈβœ‚οΈβš™οΈ --- 🍏πŸͺ🌬️🍬🍏πŸͺ🌬️🍬🍏πŸͺ🌬️🍬 Apple Fritter (Kannabia Seeds) 🍏πŸͺ🌬️🍬🍏πŸͺ🌬️🍬🍏πŸͺ🌬️🍬 Species: 50% Indica / 50% Sativa Genetics: Sour Apple Γ— Animal Cookies THC: Up to 25% Effect: Euphoric, relaxing, creative Flavor: Sweet, fruity, pastry notes Flowering: 56–63 days Resistance: High Indoor yield: 450–500g/mΒ² Outdoor yield: 600g/plant Structure: Strong, bushy, dense buds

Gave water at 6.5ph will feed on week 3. I think I've had the light to close. On day 10 pictures you can see the leaves look like there burnt πŸ€” or that's what I'm guessing it is. I've raised the light to 1meter it's only at around half power at the moment and showing 21000 lux.

Some of the leaves starting to yellow slightly but as it’s coming to the end I think I will let it ride out might give a little pk booster but that’s about it

Keeping natural form. Blackberry gum is huge as I heard from others. Did some heavy defoliation.. first time ever so it's an experiment. Flooded my tent with no tray... Needed to redo connections on the tubing... Then flooded with a new tray, needed to secure the AQUAVALVES on one autopot base.... Looking good. Still running 24 hrs... Rock and roll 🀘

DAY 36 All right got some aggressive growth this week. Sorted out the mag and calcium issues for the most part. Few plants are still showing minor deficiency symptoms. Punch Line #1 is a male. Identified at day 31 or so which is crazy to me that it showed signs that quickly. Put him outside - will initiate reproductive phase and I will harvest pollen in 3-4 weeks hopefully. So I used these LST clips I’ve used on dozens and dozens of plants now and they went on fine. But when I came back 12-24 hours later they had snapped the fuckin plant stem on the branch it was on. WTF. So one plant - #5 - has only one node left cuz it snapped its own branches!! So crazy man. I’m debating when to initiate flower on these babies. They’re gonna be beasts if I go much longer in veg. Probably won’t be able to do all these in this 4x4 realistically These are easily the best looking plants I’ve seen at 30 days in. Stalks on these are massive for their age. Nodes are huge and tight. Fan leaves bigger than my hands. Big ups to ETHOS on these. UPDATE October 1 - punch line to 12/12 Stay tuned and check out my Instagram @ezzjaybruh

Started some Fastbuds. Ban purp pun and gorilla cookies. Have grown some blue dream, smoothies and Forbiden runtz, like the brand. Some Seedsman i tried like Nor lights was good. Will have to try some other brands to experience some difference if any. Im about six month in and i have seemed to have taken more info in than i wanted but still gratifying. ✌️

Early week 6 update (i'll add more pictures and comments as needed): Unfortunately I hit some challenges! Light got way too close and stunted growth for a day. I noticed it on tips closest to the light only. Raised lamp to 22 inches. Indica bagseed (plant in the center front) got too stacked: stuff like leaves on top of each other with lots of moisture, no light/airflow penetration, etc. I did some basic LST, leaf tucking, net tucking, to open her up and go sideways more a bit at first. It helped a bit. Unfortunately aug 27, had to get more aggressive on this beast and remove 3 shade leaves on the right side. not happy about defoliating, but had to do it. Will see how she takes it and then look at left side on a later day. Growing the first time is educational and actually therapeutic in today's world for me. I've already learned so many lessons for the net time: don't need such a yuge pot, lamp brightness/distance, air circulation!!! Thank you to everyone that responds with positive encouragement/messaging, it really helps. Adding two more fans to help air circulation aug 28. hopefully it reduces the need to desecrate the plants! Meanwhile the plants in back (purple canyon) want to stretch their faces off, esp. the one in back left, so it is a balance. I only have so much vertical height :) aug 29, flipped to 12/12. plants are happy and i want to control the space for first grow. let's see how it goes. updated the humidity for the week to ~ 60. Ida etc has made it miserable, it should get better soon.

Hello Growers and Tokers! πŸ‘‹ πŸ‘©β€πŸŒΎ πŸ§‘β€πŸŒΎ.πŸ”₯πŸ’¨ THE MOST PHOTOGENIC Thinking about changing the title of the diary to that.. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ I swear the camera loves this one.. And it's not the placement because I've tried moving them to that same spot and the pictures just don't come out the same. I guess the others just need to mature a bit more and they'll be more appealing in pictures because in person they really are.. 😍 Green sensation is really bringing it to the table. Buds are getting fat, stinky and sticky! I'll have to add a bit of support for sure because some are starting to bend a bit. Smell is just grrreat! She's definetly not ready yet so those 40-45 days of flower aren't that correct.. No problem with me though, i'm glad they've got more time to rippen up. Not much difference in nutrients.. I do use 2ml/L of enzymes every 10 days or so in flower.. Noticed it does great work in the roots during flower. Hope you enjoy the pics and vids. Taken on day 42 of flower. Check out the other strains i've got going as well. Take care out there! One love!
