🌸 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. It all fuels this incredible process, and I apprecilove every bit of it. Special shoutout to Brother Daggadna—check him out on Instagram and show some love! 💚 The plants are heading into the next phase of bloom, and I can’t wait to share how this story unfolds. 🌸✨ As always, stay tuned, stay positive, and let’s keep growing strong together! 🙌 Growers’ love to all 💚 #TrolMaster #AptusHolland #GrowLife #CannabisCommunity #FlowerWeek4 #NeverGiveUp #GrowWithLove #IndoorHorticulture #Defoliation #PPFD #ControlledEnvironment #SCROGNet #DogDoctorOfficial Discount Codes so you can save big on your next check out 💚💚💚 Kannabia - DOGDOCTOR 30% off SeedsmanSeeds - DOGDOCTOR 10% off CannaKan- DOGDOCTOR 15% off terpyz.eu - DOCTOR 15% off The Neutralizer - PORKIT5-DOG 15% off 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 so joyful with you all in my life 🙏

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! 💚

I have a plant with a tobacco virus but zero problems. continue :)

I missed last week unfortunately due to a few things going on so there is quite a step up. ****It’s been in flower 9-10 days so far and all bar 3 are flowering nicely please look at the pictures of the plants that just don’t seem to be budding? Are they duds or slow developers? Am I wasting my time or will they start too do you think?**** They are getting tall now and I have had to crank the extraction up a bit. Over the course of next week I am going to put them back into the smaller tents (half in each) with a scrog net to even the canopy out and add support them if they continue to grow taller Whacked the nutrients right up to near on 1500ppm and so far so good this 2nd week of flower they have shot up. Watering 5-600ml per 24 hours but to be honest I am going to up that over the coming days to near 800ml as they are almost drying out before I water again. Perhaps twice daily may come sooner than I think

Week 26 11.10.2024

.

The auto flowering have started to flower...The feminized ones are growing very fast.

My oh my!

week (16) 3 weeks into the flowering stage. Slight increase in the nutrients. This past week we had some hot muggy weather along with some nice rainfall. The girls loved soaking it up!

Hello my friends 👨‍🌾👩‍🌾, Let's go for a new run! First of all a big thank to Mars Hydro and @Coco_Pan for sponsoring the TS1000 ❤️❤️, as well as Sweet seeds for donating the seeds ❤️❤️ in a contest. I was able to get a glimpse of the TS1000 for a good part of the flowering of my auto mimosa, I'm really not disappointed with the result, this time we're going to start from the seed. First Sweet seeds photo, first seeding with the TS1000. The seeds germinated very quickly, opened in less than 24h👍👍, I put the seeds in plugs when the root measured 1/2 cm (48h), the same day 2 had already come out. Since it's my first seeding with the TS1000, I put it on the minimum, and created a little shade, 2 have a lot of stretch 😅🤦‍♂️, So, I put them in direct light. #3 came out of the ground after 5 days. I wrapped the roots around the plug then put the plugs in 2l pots, Plagron Light mix + rqs pellets. Today all 3 are in pots, About #4, bad news, I probably broke the germ during the translation, it is no longer connected to the seed 😪. I moisten the soil twice a day with my water + rhizo spray, maintain a temperature of 26°C. Thanks community for follow, likes, comments, always a pleasure 👩‍🌾👨‍🌾❤️🌲 Mars Hydro TS 1000 https://www.mars-hydro.com/ts-1000-led-grow-light Gorilla Girl F1 fast version https://sweetseeds.es/en/photoperiod-dependent-seeds/3065-gorilla-girl-f1-fast-version.html

Sweet mother of god! What a beautiful plant! Now I finally know what it means to grow US genetics. Sherbinskis in collab with Sensi Seeds has made some uniquely beautiful plant. She's dark, almost black, she's extremely good looking, and frankly I didn't expect the plant to look as good as the advertisement photographs but here she is! As beautiful as it can get! I've pushed my photography skills again and god damn, it was worth it. I don't know if any other plant has been this photogenic! The yield is great, as expected from a extra longer veg period. The smell is off the hooks! Please, have a closer look at all the photographs, there are soooooo many gems that should be able to win dozens of contest IN MY OPINION XD PS: Hopefully I'll grab your attention with these bomb ass macro shots!!!!! I love me some great Trichome worlds, and this is a special one! Cheers XOXO Cremo

Gracias al equipo de Fast Buds, Marshydro y XpertNutrients sin ellos esto no seria posible. 💐🍁🍋🍊 Lemon Mandarin: Esta variedad es para los amantes de todo lo grande. La Lemon Mandarin es el resultado de nuestro trabajo de cruce de dos deliciosas cepas cítricas: nuestra matriz Lemonade cut y la Tangie (selección de Crockett's Family Farms). Nos aseguramos de que se combinaran los mejores atributos de sus padres, como un efecto eufórico y vigorizante, una producción de tricomas demencial y un perfil de terpenos cítricos agridulces. La Lemon Mandarin es ideal para los amantes de los árboles enormes y los rendimientos XXL: puede alcanzar alturas de hasta 200 cm, mostrando una resistencia extrema y muchas ramas laterales. Su aroma es una mezcla perfecta de la Tangie, cáscara de limón y la dulzura calmante de la mandarina madura, que envuelve los sentidos en una fragancia profundamente picante de mandarina-limón que perdura mucho tiempo después de fumarla. Se comporta perfectamente tanto en interior como en exterior, y su impresionante crecimiento y encanto aromático la hacen ideal para los cultivadores que buscan una cepa realmente excepcional con una compleja fragancia cítrica. Basándonos en nuestra experiencia, aconsejamos realizar el Scrogging o cualquier otro tipo de sujeción, ya que las ramas podrían no ser capaces de soportar el peso de los cogollos. En interior, para conseguir el máximo rendimiento por planta, no coloques más de 2-3 por metro cuadrado, ya que esta variedad se vuelve muy tupida. También podría beneficiarse de una defoliación más frecuente, ya que produce muchas hojas grandes y anchas en abanico, y podría necesitar ayuda con la aireación más adelante en la fase de floración. 🚀 Consigue aqui tus semillas: https://2fast4buds.com/es/seeds/lemon-mandarin 💡FC6500: Eficiencia líder en el mercado: la lámpara de cultivo LED FC-E6500, que ostenta un estatus líder en el mercado, es una solución rentable con un PPE de 2,8 µmol/J y un rendimiento máximo de 2,5 g/vatio. Ofrece un PPF alto de 2026 umol/S y es adecuada para una cobertura de vegetación de 1,50 m x 1,50 m y una cobertura de flores de 1,20 m x 1,20 m.

Started LST using heavy duty wire. After a couple days, decided to remove them as plant was being pushed down too hard. Thankfully, she bounced back very fast. Will start LST again, but this time using twine. Overall, she’s a little behind schedule, but looks decent otherwise.

Well am trying to veg as long as possible it it’s nearley time to flip to flower 🌺 dunno if am Goni manage tae get another run 🏃‍♀️ on the go am trying ma best to sort something ye can’t trust anyone these days but fuk it it’s middle of October so a will flip in next week or two then a can relax n let them do there thing looking forward to the stretch faze that’s ma s favourite 🤩 bit lol it yeah a really cannot Sao it goes this but I harvested to early a never dried properly n a rushed and made silly mistakes that impacted massively as much a was happy a shoukd hav waited longer anyway guys wish me luck also told ye feds on case chedderbob112 dizne tell lies real deal @chedderbob112

Very good looking plant

Day 5 - time to train and limit vertical growth

Bag appeal on point , wonderfully complex nose on the first two we harvested , over ripe fruity notes with earthy , musk. The other two that are laggin we have two left To harvest from this same cultivar but the last two have different smell profile . Burnt garlicky notes with earthy , pungent nose as well. I had to add a plant to the harvest. These took alot of extra time. But just gonna post few pics of the last two ladies from seed supreme, I almost lost these last two

Day 43 since seed touched soil. Hard week past. Those long not drinking days when cycle was taking 8 days to dry out made damage, i still see magnesium, but now added some rusty spots and i cant understand is it calcium or my spraying of Leaf Coat and burn. No spray this week, will check if new will appear. Because of troubles i postponed flip and top up till next watering. It should be in 4-5 days. Done huge clearing, few more new ties added, reajusted old. 4 liters of 6.3 phed dechlorinated water went in after training. AK grows very nice, branches thick, will have solid size colas, can see now. Was damaged least, but beeing picky you can see some ;)) Planning to create scrog this week too. Mars Hydro TSL2000 is on 70% output, thinking to increase it with flip to 75. Light is working fine , really covers all space , great affordable light for colder climate. Day 45. Girls recovered from training very nice ! In few days flip . Day 47. Girls got top up. Put first level of scrog. Flipped to 12/12, tent is rammed ;) light output on 75%, 4 liters of 6.3 phed water went in. Top up was dosed, mixed well and laid on top, then i rough and mix top lair of soil with top up and only then i water. All pots are 30 litres ( grams and ml , have in mind ) : Ecothrive - Biosys - 5 ml / pot Ecotrive - Charge - 120 ml / pot Ecothrive - Life Cycle - 60 g. / pot Ecothrive - Bio Blend - 200 ml / pot. Think this will be my standart top up, i run out of Great White, have for one top up, will do it in 2-3 waterings seperately from all. Planning to repeat same top up at begining of week 4 of flower. Girls look better without spraying, most prob burn from too intense light, despite me giving 30-60 min of reduced to minimum after spraying. From now on - only when lights off. Will apply in few days, think Saturday. Happy Growing !!!

I will be running Blue Dream in my flower room but they havent even rooted yet. In the mean time, since shes getting huge lol I decided to flower Queen Blue my Nirvana Shop 'Blue Dream" mother. Lets see how she does! Ill add her daughters to the diary over time. EDIT: I mentioned I didnt cut the plant at all but thats actually not true I always top my plants at the 5-7th nod. Thats it though.

The two first topped plant show good start of flower but i don't think this will be my best run, i've started tobguve them more nutrients
