Hello. This is the end of week 4 and the beginning of week 5 of flowering. Just turned the lights up to 80%. I've never had these lights up to 100% yet. They flower just fine at 80%. Going good so far. They are going through some extra nutrient though. And I'm dumping the dehumidifier water into the reservoir too. Half way through the flowering now... Should harvest after New Year. OK. Be Great Chuck.

How RQS Compares to Your Standouts Brothers Grimm (your "otherworldly" stars: Montel Iced Tea, Body Count, Bubbles Blueberry F4, Ricky’s Hash Plant, Black Tangi Tea) These are landrace-influenced, heirloom-style genetics with exceptional resin, unique flavors, and structure. They outperform RQS in quality, potency, and "wow" factor in your tents. RQS tends to be more commercial/hybridized for ease and yield, while Brothers Grimm prioritizes distinctive traits and consistency in experienced hands. Humboldt Seed Company autos (your top autos for resin, especially OG Triploid) Humboldt focuses on West Coast legacy genetics with heavy resin production. Clearly superior to RQS autos in trichome density and overall quality. RQS autos are faster and easier for beginners but often lack the resin "frost" and depth you get from Humboldt. Fast Buds (fast, flavorful, reliable autos — you like them a lot) Excellent speed and flavor profiles. You noted they're in a "different class" — fair point. Fast Buds emphasizes quick cycles and modern hybrids with nice terps, while RQS autos can feel more generic or require more coaxing. Quick Thoughts on Your Observations Brothers Grimm (Montel Iced Tea, Bubbles Blueberry F4, etc.): These are clearly the stars in your current setup. The strong smell, unique leaf morphology, and overall vigor in small pots show they're expressing well under your conditions. They reward careful growing with quality that feels special — resin, flavor complexity, and effects that fit your low-dose, functional style better than most commercial lines. Your homemade cross (Gelato 44 × Bubbles Blueberry F4 pollen = "Blueberry Knockout"): Nice work on your first intentional cross-pollination! Getting viable seeds and decent plants from a garage-level cross is a real win. It’s not "pretend breeding" — it’s exactly how many great lines started. The fact that it turned out "pretty nice" is encouraging. However, as you noted, combining a Royal Queen Seeds Gelato 44 (solid but commercial) with Brothers Grimm Bubbles Blueberry F4 (higher-quality, more unique genetics) creates a hybrid that can show the best of both, but also some inconsistency. If the RQS side brings easier growth but less depth, while the Brothers Grimm side brings the special traits, the offspring can be hit-or-miss depending on which phenos you kept. RQS Gelato 44 / Mike Tyson 2.0 vs. Brothers Grimm: Your experience matches what many growers report. RQS lines are generally more "user-friendly" and higher-yielding for beginners or volume grows, but they often lack the resin density, terpene complexity, and unique expressions you get from Brothers Grimm. The Tyson 2.0 collaboration added hype, but in your tents it landed at 7/10 while Brothers Grimm hit "otherworldly." That gap in quality is why you're leaning toward sticking with the professional, boutique genetics going forward. 3/30 11:17PM Gelato 44 & Punch Pie were nice right off the tree the little buds put me right to sleep last night!! The Autos are 7-10 but the Photos are 8/10

Bonjour à tous les padawans et maîtres jedis Plus 2 centimètres le stretch est fini Cette plante est tout simplement magnifique avec un gros rendement en perspective pour un solo cup Je suis particulièrement fier de ce solo cup qui me donne un peu de fil à retordre car la plante est gourmande en eau ce qui fait que je dois être très attentif pour l'arrosage car parfois je dois l'arroser 2 fois par jour Jour 65 defoliation pour que les têtes du bas puissent avoir plus de lumière et comme a mon habitude arrosage avec 10 ou 20 centilitres d'eau ph6.3 à laquelle j'ajoute 4ml de bio organic bloom 3 millilitres de alga max cellmax et 4 millilitres de bazooka bloom madame grow par litre d'eau

Had no time to update the diary. In week 5 of veg plants thrived as well. Im going to take clones in week 6, 12 in total And flip them into bloom. Gave them 3L with 5ml/l connoisseur. 1ml/L calmag Because I noticed some deficiencies starting to show.. Understandably so, you can see how much they grow the last few days, they needed some food!

Any suggestions on what I should be doing I put soil around stem and added wind to fatten stem but I don’t have a oscillating so it’s Blowing above it moving stem all day is that good ? Why is she so pointy wind or light to close ?

This week has been time to put on weight!! They are getting so heavy glad put in secondary scrog net. Have only been doing water so plants can just pull what they want our the soil they are starting to fade on their own. They have some amazing kinda blue tent to the buds. They have a gassy sweet smell to them! This will be the last week I feel but still see some clear heads and no amber so shall see over next week!!

Really happy with this harvest She grows very well using topping, LST and defoliation I fed them with half of the recommended dose for a photoperiodic all the growth

Hello, fin de la semaine 8, semaine 2 de la floraison. Les plantes semblent donner les 1er signent de leur passage en floraison, il me semble détecter les tout premiers pistils. Elles semblent être en bonne santé. J’ai progressivement diminué un peu l’humidité à 45/50%. Donc rien de spécial pour cette semaine, ça pousse tranquillement...🖖 Prochaine update la semaine prochaine.. Happy grow...😎

Forced harvest @ day 53, nanners explotion! She s not full ready yet but I don't want seeds in my buds! I ll update after drying, I expect 50 grams final (final outcome 37g). So, I learned it s not a good idea growing bag seeds, but at the end the outcome is good enough if I thinking about the troubles I had! @ the end I discovered that growing Mary it s sooo easy, more than my flowers in balcony ahahahah, and it s absolutely possible with micro space/budget. My enviroment is a grow box 40x40x120cm with 2 China led cob lights very cheap! You can do this only learning from guides on the web and discovering other diaries in this beautiful site! I hope my diary will helpful for all the guys who, like me, looking to manage the hermie problems! So I already start my new cicle, Wappa and Bruce Banner #3 (this time no bag seeds!) stay tuned!

Super Strain, 105 Tage vom Samen bis zur Ernte, endhöhe 58cm

Como es un cultivo s.o.g hice el transplante rápidamente el día 12, para dejar crear raices ya que se pasará a floración tempranamente por el día 20 a 25 de vegetación, se transplanto de 1 a 5 lts. El día 14 se hará 1° riego con fertilizante y el día 15 ya se hará riego foliar con estimulador de floración delta 9 para próximamente pasar a floración ✌️🍀💚

Day 35 is here. We are a week into flower and most the plants are just starting to hit that flowering stretch. I have been bending them down a little every couple days, but I need to focus on cleaning up some of the bottom branches so we can keep good air flow through the plants. Will work on that through this next week. I haven't done a water change, just been topping off the reservoir with fresh nutrients as they drink it up. Feeding half and half maxigro and maxibloom. Will cut out the maxigro in a couple weeks when I notice their stretch slowing down. I had a plant overflow this week because the drain line is getting full of roots. I noticed a couple roots have made their way into the reservoir already. I set a pump timer to 1 minute on and 20 minutes off so they can drain properly. I would like to make it through the grow without having to mess with the drains, but we will see what happens. I will make some modifications if needed. Other than that everything is running smooth and I hope we have some little pistils to show by next week. Thanks for stopping by ✌️

- Day 63 of Flower Light reduction to 50% - Day 65 of Flower Last time Watering - Day 67 of Flower Lights out for 3 days - day 70 of Flower Harvest Trichomes are about 10% amber and 80% cloudy with 10% clear Temperatures for drying gonna be 19°C and RH around 55%. She is looking beautiful and her Smell is so intensive you cannot unsmell it. Its Loud! Has Some Sweet doughy, Stanky, Cheesy and Garlic notes to it. I cant wait for the smoke. Has Some Fruity (Plum or Tangie like), Soapy and Floral Notes to it. I cant wait for the smoke.

Despues de 1 semana de solo agua y lavado de raices previos estamos listos para poder apreciar el trabajo, podemos observar un arbol precioso lleno de cogollo (de todas las plantas es la mas pequeña 😈), cogollos grandes y resinosos. 100% sanos

Purple kush is the taller of the plant, and the wham is the shorter thicker one

Wintergrow 🌱❄️ Der Run nähert sich langsam dem Ende. Die Permanent Chimera im hinteren Bereich steht kurz vor der Ernte und zeigt ein starkes Finish mit dunklen Farben und ordentlich Frost. Im vorderen Bereich läuft die Roswell Code noch etwas länger und braucht voraussichtlich noch ein bis zwei Wochen, um vollständig auszureifen. Die Buds bauen weiter auf und legen aktuell noch gut an Masse zu. Der Unterschied zwischen den Strains ist deutlich sichtbar – sowohl im Wuchs als auch im Reifeverhalten. Jetzt geht es in die finale Phase: Geduld, sauberes Arbeiten und die letzten Tage optimal nutzen. Der Winterrun hat definitiv abgeliefert 🔥❄️

KICKASS AUTO by KANNABIA Week #10 Week #4 Flower This week no issues to report being outside as she continues to flower. Her buds are getting thicker by the week and the trichome coverage is looking good she's getting frosty!! Stay Growing!! Kannabia.com KICKASS AUTO

Grow diary 11 stage 5 Days 41-50 During the week she had some training and I removed the damaged leaves. The whole grow has suffered from me not getting the watering schedule sorted. She has been flowering for about a week now. She is fairly short, and I hope I haven't messed this one up to much.
