Day 85. Few days ago I trimmed most leafy Northern Lights and she loved it ! So tomorrow two most mature Alaskan Diesels go to chop room. All other plants will get defoliation too, will have space to reach all plants. Third Alaskan Diesel is catching, but he is a week behind. Green Cracks will fall in 2-3 weeks, Northern needs at least 4 .... Will move my Bruce Banner's to main tent. I still feed Northern , but all other plants are on pure water. Day 86. Rearranged all girls, trimmed them heavy, gave new positions. One Northern lights is still in dark part of tent, I think I need 7-10 days til last Alaskan Diesel will mature and it will be only 8 girls left. Brought other diaries girls to main tent and added Mars Hydro SP150 as supplemental side lightning ... They miss height a lot compaired to older plants, so I hope it will help a bit . Never used lights that way before ... Happy Growing !!!

In der fünften Woche macht sich das Training der Vorwoche voll bezahlt. Die Pflanze nutzt die gewonnene Grundfläche optimal aus und schiebt massiv neue Triebe in die Breite. Durch das LST haben sich die Seitentriebe hervorragend aufgerichtet und entwickeln sich zu kräftigen, gleichwertigen Hauptsträngen. ​Die Blätter zeigen ein sattes, gesundes Grün und eine perfekte Vitalität. Im unteren Bereich sorgt die offene Struktur für eine ideale Durchlüftung und Lichtverteilung bis in die tiefen Achseln. Zum Ende der Woche präsentiert sich das Schmuckstück als extrem buschige, kräftige Pflanze mit starkem Stamm und vielen potenziellen Top-Colas – eine hervorragende Ausgangslage für die kommenden Phasen.

Hard to keep this little lady from constantly falling over and properly watered, but the lemon auto is plugging along! Probably another 3 weeks! ✌️💚🌿💨

🌸 Week 4 Flower Report: Growth, Challenges & Big Changes! 🌸 Hey, Grow Diaries Fam! ✨ We’re here at Week 4 of Flower, and what a week it’s been—packed with challenges, adjustments, and exciting progress! Before diving into the details, let’s start with a note on my flowering timeline. While this is Week 4, I don’t start counting flower days the moment I flip to 12/12. Instead, I wait for the plants to show true signs of bloom. It’s a small but significant distinction that keeps things accurate and aligned with the plants’ development. 🌱 Defoliation: Timing is Everything! Defoliation is a critical part of the flowering stage, and I typically wait until Day 21. However, this week, I tackled it earlier on Day 17 because: 1️⃣ The room was simply too full. 2️⃣ And most importantly—the Papaya Zoap had other plans! She’s a fighter—determined, defiant, and constantly reaching for the moon. Despite intense training like super cropping, she’s still pushing upward, nearly outpacing the LED lights. Challenges like this remind us of a simple truth: gardening mirrors life. It’s about resilience, adaptation, and unwavering determination. 💪 This week, I added a second SCROG layer. While this net will support the flowering colas, it’s also there to strategically manage the Papaya Zoap. Why? Because experience has taught me that if she grows out of the LED’s range, she won’t finish properly—and that could disrupt the balance for every other plant in the tent. It’s all about teamwork, even in the garden. 🌟 Defoliation was intense, removing nearly all the leaves with stems to clear space and boost airflow. The tent now looks dramatically different! For the full before-and-after transformation, be sure to check out my YouTube channel—trust me, you’ll want to see this process up close! 🎥✨ Switching to Aptus Holland Minerals A major milestone this week: I’ve transitioned entirely to Aptus Holland Minerals. 🌊 From now on, it’s just minerals—no more organic inputs. This marks the start of a new chapter, and I’m incredibly curious to see how the plants react to these changes. Here’s the current nutrient mix: • System Clean: 0.5 ml/L • Regulator: 0.15 ml/L • RO Water Conditioner: 0.8 ml/L • All-in-One Liquid: 2.1 ml/L I’m keeping the pH at 6.1 and TDS at 556 ppm, and so far, the plants are thriving. This week also included a thorough system clean, ensuring everything runs smoothly as we enter the final flowering stages. 🌿 Bud Development: Pure Magic! The bud formation across all the genetics is nothing short of incredible. Every plant is thriving, and the canopy is lush, vibrant, and full of potential. I’ve raised the PPFD to 750 for this stage, with temps steady at 25°C and RH at 63%—keeping the VPD dialed in at 1.11. The TrolMaster ecosystem, paired with the AutoPots, makes managing these precise conditions seamless. With more time to focus on the plants, I can give them the daily care they deserve. 💚 Shoutouts & Gratitude A huge thank you to my sponsors and supporters: TrolMaster, Aptus Holland, Pro-Mix, Cannakan, and the amazing seed banks. Your incredible products and technology make this journey possible. 🌟 To the Grow Diaries community and all my followers—thank you for your energy, love, and even the challenges from the haters.

Unlike traditional LED systems that project light in a single direction, the ICL-300’s 300-degree design ensures even light distribution beneath the canopy. 🌟 This unique feature means that no part of your plant is left in shadow, creating a balanced environment for lower buds to thrive. Key Tech Specs & Benefits: • 300-Degree Light Distribution: This design fills the under-canopy space with optimal light, enhancing photosynthesis where it often gets neglected. 🌱 • Full Spectrum Output: Tailored to meet the specific needs of plants at every stage, ensuring quality growth from base to apex. • Energy Efficiency: Advanced LED technology delivers maximum output with minimal energy usage, keeping costs down and sustainability up. 💡 • Durability & Heat Management: Built with high-quality materials, the ICL-300 stays cool and reliable, even in intense growing environments. Why It Matters: Under-canopy lighting is a game-changer for growers aiming to maximize yield and quality. Typically, lower buds receive less light, resulting in larfy or underdeveloped flowers. The ICL-300 changes that dynamic entirely by turning shadows into opportunity. 🌟 With light evenly dispersed across the entire plant, you’re not just growing; you’re sculpting a masterpiece. For me, the ICL-300 is more than a tool—it’s a partner in innovation. It ensures that every plant in my grow room has equal opportunity to shine, from the top colas to the smallest buds at the base. When paired with a carefully managed ecosystem, like the one powered by TrolMaster, the potential for consistent, top-quality harvests reaches new heights. This isn’t just about adding light—it’s about adding value, efficiency, and balance to the grow process. I’m beyond excited to see how the ICL-300 transforms the game in my tent, and I can’t wait to share the results with you all! 💚

Day 47 has been a rough week seven days of 32c + outdoors and same in the tent. I did order some Orius 100 to sort out my bug problem , but they have been delayed due to the heat. Coming along well . The two on the right of the tent are the Tangie Monkey and the left is two Bananangie.

I am an irredeemable wet-trimmer. Trimming this one was reasonably easy, but because there was so much of it ... it still took some time. Some of the "trim" was completely covered by trichomes but I treated her like any other plant in this regard and I'm satisfied with the results. The trim bucket looks ridiculous though. I added a pic of some of the last trim to the gallery. I tried to make a few videos too - I think my videomaking style is called "spaceship flies over woodlands" so please don't judge.. at least there is no audio of me making plane noises.. 💩

The week went well, the plants are growing nicely. Everyone has started to develop properly, just a slight calcium deficiency on the Green Poison on the top right, otherwise I intervene as little as possible since everything seems to be going smoothly. Bit of pintch on the top off some on.

I had a good harvest set up, in order to keep everything sterile. The drying went good and steady with converting my grow tent to dry tent. -Humidity through drying 53-58% RH -Temp a bit high 18-23 10 days of drying Very satisfied with this grow as my first grow. I said i would be more than happy with 100g (dry and trimmed) and i weighted in 95.9g PLUS about 5grams i plan to smoke now 😇 So very happy. Currently in curing jars Not harsh taste, even with no curing. Nice and fruity and a deep high. I will test the THC levels after curing and update my blog. This will def not be my last grow. I had a lot of fun Thanks to everyone on growdiaries that has been giving me pointers and tips 🙏 👉*Btw. I was growing with a "Viparspectra V300" LED through Veg and flower

All good .. watering every 3-4 days ..light on 100 % power when i see a problem a raise up on 55 cm ..now is 40 cm from plants

Day 50 – The Home Stretch ​Plant Health & Progress: We’re at Day 50 and the girls are looking absolutely fire. The flowers are packing on serious weight, looking super dense and stacked. Everything is looking clean, and the SCROG setup is definitely paying off—the canopy is perfectly even and maxing out the light penetration. ​Genetics & Phenos: ​Paradise Seeds: Have to give a huge shout-out to Paradise Seeds for this run—their genetics are rock solid. You can tell they’ve been bred for stability and performance. ​Nebula Phenotypes: It’s interesting to see the two different phenos on the Nebulas. They have slight variations in structure, but both are showing that classic elite vigor. It’s cool to watch them develop their own unique traits while keeping that top-tier quality across the board. ​Caramba: ​Status: She’s officially on the home stretch. She got her last heavy feed yesterday, so it’s straight water from here on out to start the flush. ​Goal: Time to let her finish strong, drain those remaining nutrients, and prep for the cleanest smoke possible. ​Nebula: ​Status: Still pushing hard on the feed schedule. ​Observation: Based on the trichome check, she’s lagging just a bit behind the Caramba. She’s still got too many clear heads, so she needs another week or so to really let those trichomes ripen up and cloud over. ​General Observations: ​Terpenes: The smell is straight-up insane. Every time I pop the tent, the terps are loud and complex—a real testament to the genetics being dialed in. ​Vigor: The plants are thriving. Those red stems are just showing how hard they’re hitting the light; no signs of stress or nutrient issues. ​Environment: Airflow is on point. The buds are getting thick and frosty, so keeping the humidity in check at night is now the top priority to avoid any mold issues this late in the game. ​Yield Expectations: If they keep stacking like this, we’re looking at a serious harvest. Everything is dialed, and the fade should be coming on nicely as we get closer to the chop.

WEEK IN 🌸 TOOK OUT MOST INTERNODES GROWTH IN VEG & LEFT ONLY TOP GROWTH!! HOPEFUL MY PLANS WORKS OUT WITH THESE RUNTZ DURING THE STRECH‼️🙏🏿#runtzf1durbgushers 🎩🌈🍬

Questa è la prima GMO che raccolgo, cime molto più dense rispetto alla runtz e sembra essere molto più pesante, tra qualche giorno raccoglierò l'altra e poi mancano solo le due più grandi

General —— Grounded Genetics - Zilk Road: Growth is great! SQ1 - GRCxBBC #1: Small buds but frosty & smelly! Smells like ice cold grape GasStation - Gush Mints x Grape Cream Cake: Doing fine so far except the light burn on one top Lit Farms - Black Rainbow: Growth is great and she get's frostier! Nutes —— Added PK 13/14 at half strength and will continue to do so the next two weeks unless nute burn gets worse. CalMag is at 0.6ml/l Canna Coco A&B is at 2ml/l Canna PK 13/14 is at 0.75ml/l Rhino Skin stays at 1ml/l Light —— DLI is around 30 and 40 for the ones in the back as they are tall. Training —— No Training

Plant is going slowly, the buds are airy and not really dense, if this goes on this will be a 100d+ plant which I don't want to do. Smell is nice sweet and fresh. No Light readings from now on since I don't change anything and the plants aren't gaining size anymore, it stays the same. Values are average of the day.

since the end of last week I have started to untie the branches later in the growth. always trying to give more light to the shoots that arise from the joints, to then direct these too towards the light. All this while I lower the plant by about fifteen centimeters so that the elongation given by the change of light favors the spacing. From day to day I checked the situation and, after three days, I installed a very rudimentary net in order to re-fit the highest branches and spacing them, both between them, and being careful to leave light and space the new throats. now I am just waiting for it to start to equalize in height while it will enter, I hope very soon, in the pre-flowering and then definitively blossom. just stress if not some tying to the new thrown that will decide to come up. I will increase with fertilizers at this time when the plant will recharge to the maximum to overcome yet another change. we hope for tasty buds, this cultivation is becoming more and more interesting as it is difficult.
