Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. And hello to you who read my diary, I just want to say that I am pleased that you have chosen to check in with me and in my diary. I do this for myself and for a steady flow of my medicine. Everything you read and see in my diary is 100% honest and I will never distort or beautify anything here. I document my crops so that I can learn from my mistakes and also to look back at those different crops. I try to update with pictures every day and with text if something special has happened in the garden. This is my strainhunt for the best medicine and the beginning of my journey with cannabis and the cultivation of it. This is my second feminised cultivation ever. First, I'm just going to say something about my grow room. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of ​​3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps for bloom. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable environment in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This new strain combines two well-received parents, Juanita la Lagrimosa (Spanish for "Juanita the Tearful") and Royal Highness, which are themselves genetic hybrids of other precursor strains: Juanita the Tearful from Queen Mother and a Mexican-Afghan blend; Royal Highness from Dance Hall and Respect 13. On and on the strains date back in agricultural time, each new variety with its own unique smell, taste, color, high and medical benefit. However, in the past decade, a goal of all this tinkering has been what some producers are starting to call “Royal Respect” with the soul of marijuana's benefits going toward both body and mind. Painkiller XL is notable for its near-equal representation of 6 percent tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and 7 percent cannabidiol (CBD), achieved by a seed that's 70 percent sativa and 30 percent indica. While the sativa variety of cannabis is widely known for producing more of a mental, cerebral high, and indica has a reputation for contributing more toward its physical high, other factors are more important to consider: THC is the compound given most of the credit for that head high, with CBD takes the credit for marijuana's many proven medicinal benefits, which range vastly from relieving pain, anxiety, migraines, fibromyalgia and even mad cow disease to easing many of the most deleterious symptoms of AIDS, diabetes, epilepsy and Parkinson's disease. These are just a handful of the dozens of ailments marijuana is being prescribed to combat by doctors across the globe and in more than a dozen U.S. states. Cooperatives at medical marijuana dispensaries have been at the forefront of providing CBD-rich cannabis buds and oils for their patients, who undoubtedly appreciate being able to purchase the strain best-suited to ease their particular ailments. This new strain joins others rich in both CBD and THC like Euphoria, Royal Medic, Medical Mass and Danceworld that seek to actually not necessarily downplay cannabis' psychoactive effects in favor of optimizing its healing role, but instead equalize the two. According to the California-based Steep Hill Cannabis Analysis Laboratory, this equalization brings to the cannabis user not just the physically healing aspects, but also the spiritually and psychologically healing benefits as well. There are other strains with very little THC and more CBD than Painkiller XL , but rare are such splendid balances. Producers of this strain say it produces a considerable amount of pain relief, with a mild, relieving mental euphoria. With a flowering time of eight weeks, the Painkiller XL seed can produce 525 to 575 grams per plant indoors. Inside, the dried yield is 400 to 450 grams per plant. Inside, the plants average in height at about 31.5 inche (80 cm); outside, the average height is about 53 inches (135 cm), with harvest time at the end of September. THC: 9% CBD: 9% Yield Indoor: 500-550gr m2 Yield Outdoor: 500-550 grams per plant dried Height Indoor: 60 - 100 cm Height Outdoor: 120 - 150 cm Flowering time: 8 weeks Harvest month: Late September Genetic background: Juanita la Lagrimosa x Royal Highness Type Sativa: 75%; Indica: 25% Effect: Physical, clear high. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-10-04. New week. I have started giving light nutes and fimed the tops of the plants. No lst and defoliation yet. Added picks and video. Girl N1 is 14 cm high, Nr 2 is 7 cm high. They are still in 1 liter pots and i wait another week to transplant them to big pots.

Week 6 and these girls got a scrog net added. As the plants are getting extremely heavy. Started to unfold an open up eagle spread style. So had to lend a helping hand. They got a scrog net added an the untrained plant got tied up from tents upper support bars an lower branches got some support also from the net. So far everything is going smoothly. The e680s light is putting in that work work

08/03/21: Week 8!!! Her color is finally starting fade (about time lol) we're hoping she flushes fast from here.. we poked around and seeds don't seem to be as big an issue as once thought..her buds have swelled noticeably in the last 3 days, trichs are mostly cloudy..she's getting close 💪🐱💡🌱 08/05/21: We purchased another new 315watt CMH to replace the 630watt that has been blowing bulbs (we were only running1 bulb in it lately)..the plants seem to do better for us with x2 315 lights spread out than 2 bulbs under the same hood..I'm really liking the wider spacing the clones have, they just finished their flower stretch under 315watts and the nodes are about 2-3 inches apart and not stacked tight like they usually were..we may buy another one of these lights just to have on hand...feel free to leave a comment or any suggestions that might help us improve, thank you for reading and happy growing everyone ❤️💡🌱🐈

Another good week come and gone. A couple of the girls needed nutrients so I add some general hydroponics blend into those that needed them. Didn't seem to make much difference yet. But they are getting into late flower. The purple lemonade, without a doubt, has the best smells out of the crew. Actually lemonade smelling. Plus the color makes this worth exploring more. I'm not a fan of autos but I might do her again 😂 Dimmed to 80% Here are the lights details: Medic Grow Mini Sun-2 150W LED Model: MN150-022 Spectrum mode: V1 Efficacy: 2.8 umol/J Thanks for stopping by! You can find the light on Grow Diaries: https://growdiaries.com/grow-lights/medic-grow/mini-sun-2-150-watts You can find the light on Medic Grow's website: https://medicgrow.com/

D56/F8 - 11.14 - The LA Sunset and Passion Berry in the 5x4 have gone absolutely beast mode. I'm loving it. Nothing new to report except the obviously responded well to defoliation, got them some peony rings and a blumat system, which is really impressing me so far!! D59/F11 - 11.17 - the smaller LA Sunset in the 3 gallon is stretching very noticeably but maintaining and nice internode distance 👌 D60/F12 - 11.18 - These plants are vigorous as heck. The Passion Berry is absolutely dominating the stretch <3

These are a dream to grow big yield fat buds hopefully nice they just grow big and have a long flowering time I think I had two different phenos one was short and bushy and one was huge and one is really frosty and one is huge budded with little frost they take to basically all training very well did lst extreme lst topping and a bit of bowl training one of the plants was over 6ft too big for my liking they produce very well I think they should yield nicely will be growing this strain again if she smokes as nice as she looks will update when dry ...yield let me down was expecting more lol I think the problem with this grow was I grew too much plant not enough buds couldnt get round to sorting things how I would have liked but happy with the smoke the 297 was shared between 3 so I only have 99g to show dry thanks for reading happy growing guys thanks for following the journey 0

THURSDAY 12/20: Charlene is still popping pistils, but I went ahead and flushed her again today with 2 gallons of ph'd water, some bembe, and some terpinator. Her trichromes are only about 50-60% cloudy still..might've started flushing a little too soon... Charlotte looks pathetic...so sad about her demise. She'll end up in the trim bag for making e-liquid I guess.. One of my 2 x C4 seedlings is already purple in the middle??...really??? FRIDAY: The new evaporative cooler is working pretty well in the tent. High temp was 84f with it running on medium and with ice in the reservoir. That's a win. I suspect that when I need to run the other two 85w bar lights it will be pushing 90f again unless I run it on high. RH is is staying between 38% and 45%, which is another win! SATURDAY: I flushed Charlene again today with 2 gallons of ph'd water + bembe. Next time will just be plain water..Charlotte is super fugly but I'm trying to kickstart her again..she's just making leaves it seems. SUNDAY: Photo session today..Charlene posed well for me, but it was hard to take photos of poor Charlotte... Charlene's got a few ambers now...last flush will be on Tuesday.👌

DAY 77: LAST WEEK :D So because it is probably the last week i got some BEAUTIFUL pictures! I made some pictures with white lights, with flash and with the flower lights on. The results are just... DAMN! She is doing great and as planned. She is using all her nutes and het leaves are fading out. I might have started the proces to soon because not all the trichomes have turned brown so she will probably be more sativa. Im so proud of myself, I'm really impressed how big and beautiful she turned out. What do you guys think?

Week 10 for 9lb Hammer F2 These 2 girls are really really starting to fill out as well I've pulled one apart to stretch her sideways didn't have time this morning to do her sister though. The one that i stretched out finally started drinking up all that rain water from the other week. The other is still quite heavy.

Lost TKO last week so Heady OG is all I have for this cycle, but wow she is looking beautiful! Buds are getting thick! Checked trichomes and decided to let her grow for a few more weeks. The veg garden has been growing along healthy and all mothers are looking beautiful! Topped three of the moms and have been tending to the spare clones in the tray. Also been prepping for tissue culture and plan to start very soon! Onwards to next week Ensign!

Looking great in the veg garden! --- Glad that the TKO mom is thriving and wow the Heady OG mother is looking a lot better now! --- The canopy looks really healthy and growth is perky and soaring upwards! --- The original Garlic Budder #1 mother is getting quite tall as well. --- Will need to top the canopy soon. --- Both of the spare clones in the propagation tray look healthy and green! --- The Garlic Budder #2 clone needs water. - [+00:42]: Here is the starting initial watering range: ------ Garlic Budder OG#2 » 256.4g → 300.2g --------- General Solo Range: [Dry] «| [Initial Cup Weight] + ~55-100g |» [Wet] --- Took the starting weight before watering, ------ Garlic Budder OG#2 » 258.2g --- While on a scale, --- Gently misted her straw mulch with RO water. --- Tried to keep the top growth dry. --- Misted 5-10 sprays. Waited a few seconds, then misted again. --- Made sure to reference the watering weights. --- Repeated this process until the cup weighted at least 300g. --- There was no runoff. - [+01:00]: Took the saturated weight after watering, ------ Garlic Budder OG#2 » 320.6g --- Marked the watering date on the side of the cup. Also marked the saturated weight on the back. --- Placed her back into the tent. --- Why not! Decided to top the mothers. --- Growth is getting too close to the grow light. - [+01:03]: Using a pair of clean trimmers, --- Cut and removed a good 5-6 inches of top growth. --- Topped all mothers except the Gorilla Goat #1 mom. --- Mulched the trimmings. --- The veg garden is looking healthy and is growing strong! - [+01:18]: Checked the humidifiers. --- Tanks are still full and no leaks found. --- Plan to start prepping for tissue culture soon and am still researching the initial process. Day 02 - Tuesday - 09/23/25 - Total Days: 163 ----------------------------------- Daily Averages ~[+01:00] - Temps: 86.0°F [30.0°C] - Humidity: 78.4% - VPD: 0.92 kPa - Soil %: [49, 41, 34, 53, 43, 40, 43, 45] ----------------------------------- - [13:03]: Time to start prepping for my first attempt at tissue culture! --- Ordered and received the AC Infinity PH Meter PRO [AC-PHM7] --- Since this is a brand new unit, the probe sensor needs to be cleaned and conditioned for calibration. --- For proper storage and conditioning, the meter includes a bottle of KCL (Potassium Chloride) storage solution. --- For a basic 2-point calibration, the pH meter also includes 7.00 pH [Mid] and 4.00 pH [Low] calibration solution. --- The pen does support a 3-point calibration, but does not include the 10.1 pH [High] calibration solution. For growing, the pH should never get that high anyways. The ideal averages are all below 7.00 pH [Mid to Low Points]. --- The meter also includes solutions for conductivity calibration, but don’t need these for tissue culture. --- Okay let's go! - [13:09]: Took the cap off of the unit and examined the new sensor probe. --- There was a tiny bit of condensation and a micro drops of the KCL storage solution in the cap. --- The glass sensor was clean, but the seal for the cap had a bit of mineral build-up. This is apparently normal for new meters. --- Swirled the probe in distilled water for a bit making sure to fully saturate the sensor and to rinse off the old KCL solution. --- Wiped the mineral deposits off with a clean paper towel. Made sure to be gentle around the glass probe and tried not to touch it much. --- Also cleaned and rinsed the cap with distilled water and dried with a paper towel. - [13:16]: Opened and poured about 3/4 of the KCL solution into the cap. --- Placed and probe cap back on making sure the sensor is fully soaking in the storage solution. --- Done! - [13:19]: The unit should be ready for a first-time calibration after a 30-minute soak, but going to be soaking for a lot longer. --- The probe needs to stay stored in this KCL solution and will top off with more as needed. --- Plan to calibrate the meter right before checking and adjusting the pH for the establishment media. --- Compared to my last pH meter (cheap Amazon pen), this one is a huge upgrade in both accuracy and complexity. --- Will need to do a bit of research on how to calibrate and use this meter properly. - [16:36]: Evening check on the 3x3 veg tent. --- With the recent TKO disaster in the main tent, glad that everything is looking healthy in the veg garden! --- All mothers (including TKO) are looking green and getting bigger! --- Now that the watering system is working again, the Heady OG mother is looking a lot better and she is starting to perk up. Ca-Caw! Nice! --- Even the spare clones in the tray are looking good and no need to water. Great! - [17:01]: Checked the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: ------------------ [ 4x4 MAIN TENT ] --------------- ------ 47% - [CH01 FT » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 40% - [CH02 FB » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 34% - [CH03 BT » G20 - TKO] ------ 53% - [CH04 BB » G20 - TKO] ------------------ [ 3x3 VEG TENT ] ---------------- ------ 47% - [CH05 BL » GR7 - TKO] ------ 40% - [CH06 BR » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #1] ------ 44% - [CH07 FL » GR7 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 44% - [CH08 FR » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#1] --------- Veg: 38% - 45% | Flower: 45% - 55% --------- General: 30% [Dry] «| 45 - 60% [Moist] |» 70% [Wet] --- All watering units are functioning properly! - [20:37]: Checked the 4x4 tent. --- Looking great in the garden! --- Still hurts to have lost TKO, she’s completely yellow and crispy.. --- On the flipside, Heady OG has clearly survived and is looking beautiful with bud colas getting frosty and thick! --- Anyways, time to take the weekly height and PPFD readings, but will only take readings for Heady OG from now on. - [20:46]: Took the weekly general PPFD readings. ------ Heady OG (BX1 #1) was around 1159 μmol/m²/s which gives a DLI of 50.07 mol/m²/d under a 12/12 light cycle (LV5 @ ~390.1W). - [20:55]: Took the weekly height and light distance measurements. ------ Heady OG (BX1 #1) was about 52" tall. ------ Heady OG (BX1 #1) was about 2" away from the grow light. --- These readings were taken from the tallest bud colas so the average height and PPFD levels are lower. - [21:25]: Checked on the auto-watering system. --- System is charged and water is still flowing. - [21:56]: Okay! Still prepping for tissue culture (TC) and need to cut some plastic wrap. Let's go! --- Using a PVC cutter, cut a roll of plastic wrap into twelve 1-inch pieces. - [22:15]: Done! --- Instead of para or lab film, these saran wrap rolls will be used to secure the lids of the explant containers after transplant. --- Shout out to Laur and Plants-In-Jars for the useful and in-expensive alternative! --- Okay! Almost all set to give tissue culture a go and will begin preparation of the establishment media next week. --- Getting hyped! - [22:21]: Checked the humidifiers. --- Tanks are still full and no leaks found. Day 03 - Wednesday - 09/24/25 - Total Days: 164 ----------------------------------- Daily Averages ~[+01:00] - Temps: 86.7°F [30.4°C] - Humidity: 79.1% - VPD: 0.91 kPa - Soil %: [49, 40, 34, 53, 44, 43, 43, 43] ----------------------------------- - [23:43]: Night check on the 4x4 tent. --- Alright! Heady OG is looking healthy and green! --- Also terps are getting more distinct and am getting more of a pine-fuel profile! Wow she’s smelling great! --- Plan to take microscope samples in a week or two! - [23:47]: Checked the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: ------------------ [ 4x4 MAIN TENT ] --------------- ------ 45% - [CH01 FT » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 40% - [CH02 FB » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 33% - [CH03 BT » G20 - TKO] ------ 53% - [CH04 BB » G20 - TKO] ------------------ [ 3x3 VEG TENT ] ---------------- ------ 47% - [CH05 BL » GR7 - TKO] ------ 42% - [CH06 BR » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #1] ------ 41% - [CH07 FL » GR7 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 43% - [CH08 FR » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#1] --------- Veg: 38% - 45% | Flower: 45% - 55% --------- General: 30% [Dry] «| 45 - 60% [Moist] |» 70% [Wet] - [23:52]: Checked the 3x3 veg tent. --- Veg garden is beautiful and all mothers are looking great! --- All clones also are looking healthy, but Gorilla Goat #2 needs watering now. - [23:55]: Here is the starting initial watering range: ------ Gorilla Goat #2 » 255.4g → 300.3g and was watered 7 days ago. --------- General Solo Range: [Dry] «| [Initial Cup Weight] + ~55-100g |» [Wet] --- Took the starting weight before watering, ------ Gorilla Goat #2 » 231.7g --- While on a scale, --- Gently misted her straw mulch with RO water. --- Tried to keep the top growth dry. --- Misted 5-10 sprays. Waited a few seconds, then misted again. --- Made sure to reference the watering weights. --- Repeated this process until the cup weighted at least 300g. --- There was no runoff. - [+00:08]: Took the saturated weight after watering, ------ Gorilla Goat #2 » 325.8g --- Marked the watering date on the side of the cup. Also marked the saturated weight on the back. --- Placed her back into the tent. - [+00:14]: Checked the humidifiers. --- Tanks are still full and no leaks found. Day 04 - Thursday - 09/25/25 - Total Days: 165 ----------------------------------- Daily Averages ~[+01:00] - Temps: 86.°F [30.0°C] - Humidity: 78.9% - VPD: 0.91 kPa - Soil %: [50, 40, 33, 52, 43, 40, 44, 42] ----------------------------------- - [16:14]: Evening check on the 3x3 veg tent. --- Looking beautiful in the veg garden! --- Mother growth is healthy and soil moisture is looking beautiful! --- Was planning on diving into tissue culture this week, but have decided to push it back a week. --- I don’t want to rush things and want another few days to prepare. Independently --- With that said, growth is getting close to the grow light and needs to be topped. - [16:18]: Using a pair of cleaned trimmers, --- Cut and removed about 5-6 inches of canopy growth. --- Nice! Everything is lower and a lot more even. --- The original Garlic Budder #1 mother is beautiful and squat so did not need to top. --- Clones in the propagation tray look healthy and no need to water. - [17:40]: Checked the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: ------------------ [ 4x4 MAIN TENT ] --------------- ------ 49% - [CH01 FT » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 40% - [CH02 FB » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 33% - [CH03 BT » G20 - TKO] ------ 52% - [CH04 BB » G20 - TKO] ------------------ [ 3x3 VEG TENT ] ---------------- ------ 42% - [CH05 BL » GR7 - TKO] ------ 40% - [CH06 BR » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #1] ------ 43% - [CH07 FL » GR7 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 42% - [CH08 FR » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#1] --------- Veg: 38% - 45% | Flower: 45% - 55% --------- General: 30% [Dry] «| 45 - 60% [Moist] |» 70% [Wet] - [19:09]: Within the AC Infinity App, --- For the Main Tent [4x4] controller, --- Adjusted the 'Flower [12/12]' Schedule for the exhaust fan. ------ Switched the Mode from ‘CONTINUOUS AUTO’ to ‘CONTINUOUS VPD’ ------ Set the VPD HIGH trigger value to OFF ------ Set the VPD LOW trigger value to 1.1kPa ------ Set the MIN/MAX values to 1/8 ------ Set the VPD Dynamic Transition value to 0.2kPa --- This should cause the fan to ramp up from 1 to 8 when the VPD drops below 1.1kPa and should ramp back down to 1 when the VPD rises above 1.1kPa - [19:21]: Checked the 4x4 tent. --- Heady OG is growing along beautifully and she is smelling dank! --- Top colas are getting pretty fat with trichomes! - [19:32]: Alright! Time to check the trichomes! --- Using my phone’s wide-macro mode (Samsung S22), --- Took a few close-up shots of some of Heady OG’s top buds. --- Mostly seeing clear and cloudy with just speckles of amber just starting. --- Since these are top buds, the bottom growth tends to be less mature. --- Will probably take microscope samples next time in a week or so. --- Wow at this rate, harvest time will probably be in 3-4 weeks! --- Getting stoked!

This strain was easy to grow, short and very bushy. The smell when drying has an incredibly strong earthy/chocolate aroma which is very pleasant🤤.

Harvesting An ELEPHANT !!! And after 118 day from seed and 101 from wen she started her mix veg/flowering process, i cant say for sure but i am starting to believe that this auto world do veg, then veg and flower in conjunction for a wile and only after they a wile they move to a flowering stage completely but thats another post another day lol today was harvest day for this Auto Elephant from SSSC , and let me tel you she is a delight with huge fruits, so big that i normally cut and hang the all plant and for this i did not take the risk of doing that and getting bud rot , better safe than sorry, so what i broke her in smaller peaces and put it all in the rack. Now not much to do than waiting for it to get around 10/15% humidity and jar with it all. This one as you guys can see from the video , this is a full covered in trichomes BIG MAMA and touching her is like touching super glue or something lol i was trying to put all the colas in one picture , but is simply just not possible , they all look great so i selected 4 of them for a true back back ground <3 Thank you Super Sativa Seed Club for this opportunity, i fell like a champion no matter what with this 2 Mamas, much respect on the work you guys did on this Elephant As always thank you all for stoping by for your love and for it all, i fell humble and honored
