Week 9 Flower Report: The Countdown to Harvest Begins! 🌼✨ As the ninth week of flower unfolds, the room is a symphony of colors and frosty brilliance—a true gardener’s dream! But as we approach the final stretch, it’s a delicate dance of vigilance and care to ensure a clean and bountiful harvest. Here’s a deep dive into this exciting and educational week: The “Flush” in Full Swing The flush continues as we prepare the ladies for their final days. While we’re a week or so away from harvest, the plants are responding beautifully, showcasing stunning fades that highlight their unique genetics. This fading process is a critical part of the journey, helping the plants naturally finish their cycle while preserving those complex terpene profiles we all love. The Mold Incident: A Teachable Moment This week brought a challenge—a few buds succumbed to bud rot (Botrytis), particularly on the Papaya Zoap and a single bud from the Gorilla Melon. While disheartening, it’s a reminder that mold can occur even in the most well-maintained gardens, especially with dense colas and a full canopy. After a thorough inspection, all affected buds were removed and discarded to prevent the spread. A quick note to all growers: defoliation plays a massive role in airflow and prevention of such issues. This is why mid-flower defoliation is a game-changer, and I’m grateful it kept the rest of the garden healthy! Papaya Zoap’s Unique Quirks The Papaya Zoap continues to be a star of the show with its frosty buds and… albino tips! These tiny white tips are likely from being too close to the lights. While it’s a cosmetic detail that doesn’t affect quality, it’s a fascinating display of how genetics and environment interact. A Frost-Filled Wonderland The room is absolutely glistening with frost. Trichomes are piling up like snow, giving the entire garden a magical wintery appearance. I genuinely believe the ThinkGrow LEDs and TrolMaster spectrum control deserve a shoutout here. Running deep red, far red, and UV at 100%, combined with whites at 50%, is delivering incredible results. The ability to fine-tune the spectrum is a game-changer for resin production and terpene enhancement. Environmental Mastery Here’s a peek into the environmental stats keeping the ladies thriving: • Room Temperature: 26°C • Relative Humidity (RH): 53.2% • VPD: 1.57 kPa • CO2: 1067 ppm • PPFD: 690 µmol/m²/s This balance creates the perfect conditions for fattening buds and maximizing quality in the final weeks. Nutrient & Soil Rundown On the nutrient side, the solution measures: • pH: 6.67 • TDS (Reservoir): 65 ppm • Solution Temp: 18.3°C Soil stats show a TDS of 695 ppm, indicating there’s still some nutrient reserve left in the medium—a perfect transition into the flush phase. It’s all about ensuring the plants have enough to finish strong without compromising flavor or smoothness. A Garden of Many Colors The fades across the room are a sight to behold. Each strain is showcasing its unique hues, with the Green Papaya leading the frost parade, and the Punch Pie taking the crown for bud size. Meanwhile, the Gorilla Melon is dazzling with red reflections, and the Papaya Zoap keeps turning heads with its white crystalline canopy. Videos with TM+ Pro This week, I’m also sharing videos straight from the TM+ Pro app. This tool has been a joy to use, offering precise control and insights into my grow environment. It’s simple for beginners and robust for advanced growers, proving once again that the TrolMaster ecosystem is a must-have in any grow room. P.S. Ecosystem Excellence I can’t emphasize enough how incredible the TrolMaster ecosystem is for growers of all levels. From intuitive configuration to seamless integration, it’s a system that simplifies growing while delivering professional results. Whether you’re just starting out or refining your craft, TrolMaster has your back. Thank Yous & Shoutouts As always, my heartfelt thanks to my sponsors: TrolMaster, ThinkGrow LEDs, Aptus Holland, Pro Mix Soil, Cannakan, and the amazing seed banks for their genetics.

Both Plants are beginning to stretch especially the second plant . I’m guessing they are about to start pre flowering . They’ve been super healthy. I just have a few leaves that go nutrients splashed on them so they’re looking a little burnt. I expected them to start flowering already but I’m not complaining .

I am not on facebook instagram twitter etc All accounts except this one are fake. Hello, everyone . The lady is developing beautifully. She also responds very well to training. You feel extremely comfortable with GreenBuzzLiquids 👍😊. This week the water was poured twice with 0.8 l each time (see table above for nutrient administration). Topping has been applied once this week and I'll do it a few more times before it goes into bloom. I sprayed them 2 times with GreenBuzzLiquids Spray this week. Otherwise, as always, everyone was checked for their health, the tent was cleaned and observed for half an hour 😂. I wish you all a lot of fun with the update.

Ehi ragazzi come va? All inizio quando hanno cambiato grow diaries ero dubbioso, ma ora che si possono caricare tutte le foto assieme è tutta un altra storia! Allora cosa posso dire, la ragazza questa settimana si è sviluppato in modo impressionante, si vede che il nuovo prodotto di plagron sta facendo effetto! Addirittura le cime hanno più fiori delle altre sorelle fertilizzante con Advanced, i fiori sono davvero tanti e molto densi, penso che dovrò defogliare un po per scongiurare il rischio di muffe, ma per il resto tutto procede secondo i piani, la pianta è bella grande di un bel colore verde intenso e senza carenze per ora.. Grazie plagron e spero di aggiudicarmi un buon posto nella sfida, anche se c'è gente molto più capace di me! Allora buon 420 e alla prossima settimana! Grazie sempre a Mars hydro per l equipaggiamento fenomenale che mi permette di avere la migliore erba medica a casa mia!! 💪😸😺🤞🍀🌱🌿🌲💐🧑‍🌾😎💨

9/5 PREVENTATIVE SPRAY OF 1TBSP POTASSIUM BICARBONATE AND 1/4 TBSP DAWN TO TREAT WPM. Foggy this morning and rained again last night. Weather hasn't been the greatest. Not seeing much PM unless it advanced so much that it just killed all the leaves. I still have yellowing leaves that die. It's probably septoria and I probably should've used a copper fungicide but I'm in flower. Ice cream cake and a couple seedlings are far behind but everything else seems like it will finish. This weather has been getting me down. I may feed later today or I might wait until tomorrow. I also need to add a few more supports. Wet buds are heavy. I'm getting there. Slowly but surely. 9/6 FED TWO GALLONS TO GARDEN PLANNED TO USE BEASTIE BLOOM BUT COULD ONLY FIND CHA CHING. Rained heavy all night. I came back to hanging branches but no damage. I added some supports quickly and tied up a hanging branch. Ran a couple strings across the frame but I have more work to do. I took some pics and a video. At least now I'm seeing buds. Walking down there is like getting slapped in the face with a wet bud (which happened today). It's a super strong smell. Trichomes are developing at various stages. This is when things get paranoid but it's also fun. I can't wait until fall. 9/7 Plants we're wet this morning so I gave them a good shake. Defoliated what needed it and added a couple more supports. I don't like these leaves falling like this. Didn't have time to work on the ice cream cake that's growing into the fence. Now it's a race with the weather. Things are looking pretty good but I'm getting antsy. Also I'm not sure what caused all this weird damage from earlier and if I should just cut off useless branches. I'm hesitant as I don't want to create an open wound for more fungal infections. 9/8 Rained like crazy. Super heavy at times. I added a video I took yesterday. and took some pictures. Defoliated some dead stuff but it's hard to work in the pouring rain. Forecast said three inches. Plants are booming thoughgh 9/9 Still raining. Hard. No damage. Defoliated what I could and added supports where needed. I do need to say the plants I'm growing are some resilient girls. They've taken a beating and come back kicking butt. If we can get a few good days in a row shit will really start taking off. Need to spray BT and do another k bicard spray or switch it up with peroxide. I've checked the tops of my plants with a ladder and things look good so far. I'm super excited. 9/10 Poured like crazy. I fucked my diary up a bunch of times so I'll probably have to upload vids/pics again. Cannabis gods heard my cries and at noon time it's all sunshine. Was able to defoliate what needed it. Plants are just exploding. I'll do pics tomm. BT and K Bicarb spray needed. YEAH IM MISSING A BUNCH OF PICS AND A VIDEO. WILL HAVE TO FIX LATER 9/11 Beautiful sunny day. Found my beastie bloom and fed two gallons to the garden. I started low but I'll increase if it seems to benefit. Continued with only 1tbsp of grow big. Then if I like it I'll move on to cha ching. One plant will be ready VERY shortly. I took out my scope to check things out. In the bright sun ours easy to spot little pm patches. Oh well. I'll spray tonight. Everything looks so amazing. Also found more moth eggs it's time for a BT spray. Defoliated and added more supports as it's windy af out here

Terrible week. Day 43 - No sign of over-fed. They are doing great regardless the ppm so I checked online and found out the ppm In organic soil could be higher and it's normal. Anyhow, I gave my plants plain PHed water after the fed, and the run off is about 1800ppm. I think I will remain around this ppm for coming weeks. Day 45 - Half of the Led broke. Day 46 - Gave them natural sunlight. Accidentally broke the main stem :(((( Day 47 - New Light, New Tent! (It's BloomPlus BP-1500 light)

The girls are moving along nicely just watering with water ph to 6.4 this week as I top dressed with Gaia green 4-4-4.Spider farmer Se7000 dialed in at 30 percent and to the ceiling.Noticed some minor deficiencies Day 12 and check soil slurry 50/50 soil/water and the ppm was at 780 lil high at this early stage and the culprit.Going to work on lowering that a bit this week.I did add a top layer of fox farm ocean forest as well which runs a little hot with nutrients rather than the pro mix.I have to remember with these beautiful auto flowers less is better :)

Let the girls do their thing for the most part this last week. Started to stack up real nice, started to notice white pistils coming in. After 2-3 days there were more popping up and some beginning to flush to orange. Decided to LST and defol one last time, watered without any nutes. Today marks week 5 with the ladies, and I will officially say they are ending their veg cycle and transitioning into flower. Cranked the fans up tonight to circulate more air, tapering humidity down. Been pretty easy going so far

Week 2 done. She is the only one that hasn't fell over. Her stem looks the thickest of all her tentmates. She also grew the most in height this week.

So zum Wichtigen 🤪🤤🍯🍯🍯🍈 Gepresst wurden 64 G Smalls von Fresca Melon die ganz unten wuchsen, also eigentlich die Reste der Reste 🤣 & 30 G Permanent Marker aber Tops 😎🤤 Welche ich leider nicht weiter Dokumentiert hatte bis auf das Jar, was mit 8,3 g da steht, also anders heftige Ausbeute! Die 64 g smalls hatte ich zuvor eingefroren und wollte diese waschen, da das nicht so geklappt hatte dachte ich mir nochmal trocknen und pressen… Alle wurden in 90 Micron Bags gepresst, Tatsächlich bis 6000 psi was im Nachhinein wohl zu gut gemeint war aber sei es drum… Aus 64 g trocken Fresca Melon 1,5 Wochen getrocknet im Cure Fridge Self Made, sind insgesamt ca 7 g raus gekommen, dafür das es echt fluffige smalls waren ganz gut, Rosin riecht super und schmeckt sehr lecker, solange man unter 210 C bleibt beim dampfen bleiben die Lipide etc. im Banger und man hat keinen Reiz oder Ähnliches. Geschmacklich und Wirkung super keine Frage. Aus den 30 G Headbuds vom Permanent Marker sind tatsächlich heftige 8,1 G raus gekommen. Diese haben bereits 1 Monat + cure hinter sich und nach dem Pressen war die Konsistenz bereits wie Butter, müsste nicht einmal Wippen aber habs trotzdem getan. Alle rosins wurden nach 7-10 Tagen gewipped. Werde in Zukunft den Großteil meiner Beute zu Rosin verarbeiten da ich das viel lieber dampfe, die Wirkung viel angenehmer und cleaner ist. 🤪🤤🍈🍯

Algums papagaios passaram pelo meu quintal e se interessaram pelas plantas. Por sorte só comeram as folhas grandes. Ficaram um dia na estufa e já trouxe de volta para o sol.

Adding the carb is helping boost the resin production. Plants are fading a bit almost time to start the flush! Happy growing!

Still looks like crap but I'm letting her do her thing. I didn't have the heart to cull it, and I wanted to see how resilient this girl could be. I top dressed her and gave her some nutes. She's looking better than she did so that's encouraging. We'll see what happens in the next couple weeks until she finishes.
