A-Day 53 (into week 8) B&C-Day 49 (end of week 7) A - She is stacking well, and feeling greasy! The smell is coming on stronger everyday, frost is just starting to build up. There is a distinct transition as the leaves go through veg to early flower to late flower. Uniform all around, not very tall, but she is hardy and thiccc! B- Full flower now, so many tops! She has shown to be a slower flower developer than A, but the flowers she are developing are almost completely uniform all across the 🌱! I assume because there are so many they will be a little slower. I put her ties back on, and the middle shoots exploded with new stretch and growth, so she is still in that stretch/flower stage. C- what can I say, patience is a virtue. She is looking lush and vigorous. With this being a slightly longer to finish auto strain, she has had time to recover from a) being a runt, B) having slow growth, c) having almost no training and lighter nutrient feeds her whole existence. This is also my control for Topping, she was not, A and B were. This strain is clearly hardy and able to withstand multiple techniques, we’ll see what the end the result is compared to her sisters. All three plants received a full nutrient feed x2 this week. That was: 3 gallons dechlorinated water mixed with 12 ml Micro, 12 ml Bud, 20 ml Grow, and 6 ml Sensi Extra CalMag, PH’d to 6.2. And another very low feeding of 1/3 that mixture mixed into 3 gallons of water. Ive heard many growers who instead of just watering, they will do a much lower strength of nutrients included in their watering, and ultimately never not feed their plants nutrients until flush. Thoughts?

Hi Gromie's welcome to my 8th grow, have been half hearted at doing perpetual growing in recent times. Just get a bit lazy after a grow& harvest ( as U put a lot of time, love,& energy & passion into those beautiful girls who will reciprocate the love in return in the form of beautiful sticky solid dense & plentiful buds😍 but it can take a bit out of you! I tell myself I'll take a week off & then I've got around a pound+ to trim & I end up slacking for a couple of weeks, even been guilty of murdering a few clones/ young plants by starvation & or mistreat them & slow/stunt growth. But I am tired of running out of weed & waiting ages 4 more . I smoke a lot & recoup my grow cost, nutrient, electricity & initial investment. Due to demand! (Seem people prefer to get home grown hydro due to the very high quality & great terpenes) it runs out Fast. So after much thought I've decided to get right on top of thing's with my grows this will be my 8th grow in just over 2years & the plan is to run an expanded & upgraded Hydroponic perpetual operation. Originally started in 1mx1m with 600watt hps/mh . Upgraded to 1.2m tent & mars hydro FC-E480 480watt. Fooled around a bit with perpetual using 1m tent 4 veg. 7 quite successful grows & harvest's. Average a pound per grow from 4 plants easily with the FC-E 4800. Upgraded to 1.2 X 2.4m tent for flower, using old1.2m flower tent as new veg tent & old 1mx1m veg tent will be a drying tent /extra grow space if needed.Ive also set up cloning & propergation area , storage space 4 nutrients & grow equipment & workbench/ desk to record diary/grow journal . Both tents are hooked up to a 2 into 1 splitter venting out window, flower tent uses filter both tents run 6" air extraction set ups. Clone light is a viper spectra p600 100watt fully dimmable to a couple of watts. I obviously don't need that many watts for clone area (on 25watts) but this light was cheaper than a led or T5 clone light & versatile, use in veg or flower tent. Veg runs a viper spectra XS1500 150 watt & have a 2 nd XS1500 if needed flower tent runs a mars hydro FC-E4800 480watt with top feed recirculating hydro. Waiting on another FC-E 4800 for the other side of flowering tent & will do some DWC that side. Should easily pull 2+ , training & scrogs hopefully closer to 3p

Pretty smooth week. Realizing I should've done a bit more defoliation around trellis level where I've got a lot of little budsites competing for space. Dosidos 1 (purple-er pheno) - beautiful plant with lots of frosty little buds. Nice colors in the pistils this week. CBS - still looks sickly. Gave her a shot of the Neptune's Harvest this week but she looks about the same. Despite her yellowing and mottled spots on the leaves her buds keep filling in. BttF2 - Looking pretty good. She's closer to the light than the other 3 but doesn't seem to have any issues with the extra rays. Dosidos 2 (frostier pheno) - Also looking healthy and dripping with trichomes. Accidentally got a little resin on my hand and it smelled like Sweet Tarts.

The weight listed is wet, so I expect to lose about 20% as it dries and cures, leaving a final yield of around 8–9 ounces. This is a fantastic strain with an uplifting, energetic high—perfect for thinking, dreaming, and relaxing without knocking you out. I had a lot of fun growing this strain even with all the challenges in the beginning

Defoliated to improve airflow and re tied branches down to create a more even canopy. Will re ammend the medium with 2 cups of worm casting, 1.5 tbps azomite and Gaia Green 4 4 4 on the last day of week 4. Recharge in every watering during veg.

well, it's exactly 12 weeks :) and my house is full of lemon aroma :) the girl endured really difficult growth, but she coped with everything perfectly :) who followed the growth, you saw that she grew on the balcony for 10 weeks, and she spent the last 2 in the grow tent :) 500 gr wet weight !!!!:) , before putting it in the ground I expected less than 10 g dry yield :D then this growth turned out super well, if it wasn't for my vacation I would have let it grow for about 2 weeks I think. but everything is still very good, I'll go home, fix it and do a smoke review :).

hardy sativa, good taste profile with notes of peach and pink starburst, good yield, does in fact finish fast. likes training and grows robustly, yielding large buds that are quite dense given this strain’s sativa predominance. overdried a bit this time around, by overcorrecting for the summer humidity.

Genetics = Too much GAK (TMZ(Candy Fumez x Zkittles) x Sour GAK) from Bloom Genetics Pheno 1 Terps are very much Candy Fumez u get a nice blend of the Z and Sherbanger terps. 45-90u Doublebagged in 35 and 120u Graveda bags Pressed first at 75°C and a 2nd time at 80°C. First press was 5,65g and 2nd press was 0,5 which i dabbed right away. Makes it a ~1,2% return on the lower quality. I entered with 7,65g icolator so it translated 80% or 6,15g rosin. 90-160u Doublebagged in 2 x 20u Rosin Evolution bags. Pressed first at 75°C and a 2nd time at 80°C. First press was 4g like i hoped for and 2nd press was only 0,2 which i dabbed right away and had really nice high. Started with 5,35g icolator and got 79% or 4,2g rosin.Makes premium quality return ~0,8% from fresh frozen, which makes the tmg#1 return roughly 2% in total. Terps on the 90-160u are more subtle for now, but maybe that means i dont lose all the terps curing. Keeping it in the fridge and will only whip when it butters up. Pheno 3 Terps are also very Candy Fumez heavy, but more gas than the first pheno. She also dropped almost no 90-160u, so i mixed it with the 45-90u and made a full spectrum 45-160u. Doublebagged in 2 x 20u Rosin Evolution bags. Pressed first time at 75°C and 2nd time at 80°C. First press dropped 12g and 2nd press 1,5g. Started with 15,36g Icolator wich i pressed to 13,5g or 88% rosin. I also got 0,9g melt left over in a Jar wich melted away completely. Got 2,94% rosin from wet flower, which would be very good for me, but i am a little sad i only got 45-90u trichomes.

Hey guys :-) All of them except the lemongrass already have their heads sticking out of their stone wool cubes :-) . I'll give the lemongrass a few more days to develop, otherwise I'll add fresh seeds again :-) . The ones that started to take root were repotted in 0.5 l pots with a mix of Canna bio and Canna coco. First they get it enough nutrients from the fresh soil before you start fertilizing with Green House Powder Feeding Bio. The repotted ones were also placed in the heated greenhouse with a hood 👍.

Hello, my dear friends! I'm thrilled to share with you the long-awaited harvest report of my Amsterdam Amnesia Haze from Dutch Passion. It's been an incredible journey, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. This champion of a plant has truly exceeded my expectations, just like her magnificent mother. The timing of the harvest was nothing short of perfection, if I do say so myself. After eight weeks of flowering since I flipped her into an 11-hour light and 13-hour dark cycle, she was at her prime. Every day leading up to this moment was filled with anticipation, and now the time had come to reap the rewards of our diligent care. As I carefully trimmed the bountiful buds from the branches, I couldn't help but feel a sense of pride and joy. The aroma that filled the room was simply intoxicating, a tantalizing blend of citrus and spice that tickled my senses. It was a testament to the incredible genetics crafted by Dutch Passion, who never cease to amaze me with their expertise in breeding top-notch strains. Now, let me share a little secret with you. Due to the abundance of buds and the presence of the scrog nets in action, I had to adapt my drying process. Instead of hanging the full plants, I gently broke her branches to allow for a more efficient and manageable drying experience. It was a bit of a puzzle, but I embraced the challenge with a smile on my face. After all, sometimes we need to get creative in the pursuit of perfection. Now, my fellow growers, I know you're eager to hear the numbers, and I won't keep you waiting any longer. The yield from my Amsterdam Amnesia Haze was nothing short of impressive. The fruits of my labor amounted to a generous harvest that left me grinning from ear to ear. But remember, it's not all about the numbers. The quality of the buds is what truly matters, and let me tell you, they are a sight to behold. The trichomes glisten like tiny diamonds, sparkling in the light, a testament to the care and attention given throughout the cultivation process. The potency is undeniable, and the smooth smoke is a true delight for the senses. Each toke carries me on a journey of euphoria and relaxation, a blissful escape from the everyday hustle and bustle. Before I wrap up this report, I want to give a special shout-out to Grow Diaries and Dutch Passion. Grow Diaries, thank you for providing an incredible platform for growers to share their experiences and learn from one another. And Dutch Passion, your genetics continue to amaze me, and I'm honored to have grown such a remarkable strain. Your dedication to producing top-quality cannabis seeds is truly commendable. To all of you who have been following along on this journey, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Your support, encouragement, and shared passion for cannabis cultivation mean the world to me. I couldn't have done it without you. So, my friends, let's celebrate this harvest as a testament to the wonders of nature, the power of diligent care, and the joy of cannabis cultivation. May your future grows be abundant, your buds be potent, and your spirits be lifted. Until next time, keep growing, keep learning, and keep spreading the love of cannabis far and wide <3 <3 <3 As always thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all , this journey of mine wold just not be the same without you guys, the love and support is very much appreciated and i fell honored and blessed with you all in my life <3<3<3 #aptus #aptusplanttech #aptusgang #aptusfamily #aptustrueplantscience #inbalancewithnature #trueplantscience #dogdoctorofficial #growerslove

Here we are into the beginning of true flowering! Stacking has begun, flower development is coming along beautifully, both plants are loving the 900PPFD & 2.0EC feed without signs of stress. Co2 is being implemented this week & leaf tucking will continue. The Bride Cake has surprised me with its stretch during this last week or 2, Growing nearly an inch every other day. No real serious trichome development yet so only a faint smell when first opening the tent. Both plants are drinking quite a lot which I’m very happy to see.
