It was a longer road until here. With all the reading I did I still made rookie mistakes. To much nutrients and to much light stunt my plant and created some deficiencies ( CaMg). Hopefully I will do ok from now on.... Lifted the light at 3 feet on 100% power and decreased the PPM’s to 600. Hopefully that will help and I did not create to much damage. Wish me luck. I invested a lot of time and money on this grow but the experience is not there yet. I’m ok with what it is, I’ve learned a lot from this grow.

I'm now on vacation for 2 weeks so all photos will be from my security camera. From what I can tell my new clones are greening up and putting out some new growth. My blumats had a runaway on day 3... luckily my neighbor was around and was able to slow the drip rate down on my one plant which was starting to flood my box. It has now stopped dripping and my hope is there will be no more hiccups..I will be watching closely over my vacation. 😅🙏

Buds are still packing on both girls. New pistils still shooting out with no orange hairs showing yet. Im thinking this is going be be a longer finish, may go to 14/15 weeks if necessary. Going out of town for work, topped up the res with adding micro and bloom.

The girls were harvested at 94 days. I didn't weigh it, but I believe they yielded around 30 to 40g for both. I am very satisfied and happy to have achieved a very good result, being my first time growing. A cycle closes and a new will come soon with new soil assembly, new genetics and more experience. Thanks to Shiva for tending and blessing the crop, and to all friends here who have sent messages of support and encouragement. I gained another family. Happy 2023 to all, may it be a year of much evolution and beautiful flowers. Om Shanti

Hello, Grow Diaries fam! 🌿✨ We’re now in Week 10 from seed, and what a journey it’s been. This week, the grow room has transformed into a breathtaking display of autumnal beauty, with the plants showcasing stunning fades and vibrant colors as they enter their final stages of life. It’s a true celebration of nature’s cycles, and the energy in the room is palpable. Let’s dive into this epic week! 🌟 Week 10 Highlights 🌟 The plants are embracing their last days with grace, each one revealing a unique spectrum of colors and expressions. The transition to 12/12 light cycle continues to push them toward their full potential, all thanks to the Big Demon, who’s still leading the charge with her massive stature. Here’s a closer look at what’s been happening: 1. Moon Rock 🚀: • Appearance: Moon Rock is a sight to behold, with her compact buds now radiating deep purples and blues. The fading leaves add a touch of gold and burgundy, creating a gorgeous contrast. • Maturity: Trichomes are nearing their peak, with a beautiful mix of milky and amber hues. The plant is exuding a rich, earthy aroma that’s both soothing and powerful. • Notes: Moon Rock’s structure remains solid, with every bud dense and resinous. She’s almost ready to harvest, but we’re giving her a bit more time to fully mature and express her genetics. 2. Opium 🌸: • Appearance: Opium has embraced the autumn spirit with a stunning display of fiery reds, oranges, and purples. The buds are heavy, covered in a thick layer of trichomes, and the leaves are curling into a final, beautiful farewell. • Maturity: The buds are at their densest, with pistils mostly curled and darkened. The scent is intoxicating, with sweet and spicy notes filling the room. • Notes: Opium is reaching her final form, with the fade adding to her allure. She’s almost ready to give up her bounty, and we’re closely watching the trichomes to catch the perfect harvest moment. 3. Big Demon 💪: • Appearance: Big Demon continues to dominate, with her towering colas still swelling and gaining density. Her leaves are just beginning to show signs of fade, with a mix of deep greens and light yellows starting to emerge. • Maturity: She’s not quite there yet, still pushing out new growth and adding weight to her massive buds. The trichomes are mostly clear, indicating that she’s got more to give before she’s ready. • Notes: Big Demon is the reason we switched to 12/12, and she’s proving to be worth the wait. Her potential is enormous, and we’re excited to see how much more she’ll develop in the coming weeks. 🌟 The Beauty of the Fade 🌟 This week, the grow room has become a canvas of color, with each plant expressing its own unique fade: • Moon Rock: Deep purples and blues with a touch of gold. • Opium: Fiery reds, oranges, and purples, creating a warm, autumnal palette. • Big Demon: Still mostly green, but with hints of yellow signaling the beginning of her fade. The fade is not just a visual treat—it’s also a sign that the plants are nearing the end of their life cycle. As the leaves lose their chlorophyll, they reveal the hidden pigments underneath, resulting in the stunning colors we see now. It’s a reminder of the natural process of life, death, and renewal, all happening within the grow room. 🌟 Environmental and Nutrient Strategy 🌟 We’re continuing with our tried-and-true strategy: • Water: • TDS: 400 ppm • pH: 6.2 • Temperature: 18°C • Grow Room Conditions: • Temperature: 30.3°C • Relative Humidity (RH): 51% The Lumatek Zeus 465 Compact Pro LED is still our powerhouse, providing the perfect light spectrum for these final weeks. The TrolMaster Hydro X controller keeps the environment stable, ensuring that the plants have everything they need to finish strong. 🌟 Reflecting on the Journey 🌟 As we approach the end of this run, it’s amazing to see how far the plants have come. From tiny seeds to these magnificent, flowering beauties, it’s been a journey of growth, learning, and appreciation for the magic of cultivation. Each plant has its own story, and the fades we’re witnessing now are like the final chapter of a well-written novel. 🌱 Next Steps 🌱 • Monitoring Maturity: We’re keeping a close eye on the trichomes and the overall appearance of the plants to determine the perfect harvest window. • Final Feed Adjustments: We’re starting to consider a flush for the plants that are nearing harvest, ensuring the smoothest, cleanest smoke possible. • Harvest Preparations: With harvest just around the corner, we’re getting everything ready for a seamless transition from plant to drying room. Thank you for following along on this incredible journey. The finish line is in sight, and we can’t wait to share the final results with you all! Happy growing, and may your gardens be ever green! 🌿💚 #DivineSeeds #Week10FromSeed #Week7Flower #AptusHolland #MoonRock #Opium #BigDemon #GrowDiaries #PlantMagic #GreenThumb #Inspiration #LumatekZeus #TrolMasterHydroX Germination method 🌱 @thecannakan Nutrition @aptusholland 🌿 @aptus_world 🌎 @aptus_es 🌍 @aptusbrasil 🌱 @aptus_thailand 🌿 @aptus_portugal 🌳 @aptususa_official 🍀 @aptusplanttechnz 🌺 @aptusplanttechaus 🍃 Ambient controls🎮 @trolmaster.eu @trolmaster.eu.support @trolmaster.support @trolmaster.agro Soil @promix_growers_eur @promix_cannabis LED - @lumatekeu Watering- @autopot_usa @autopot_global Love and attention- @dogdoctorofficial #aptus #aptusplanttech #aptusgang #aptusfamily #aptustrueplantscience #inbalancewithnature #trolmaster #trolmastereurope #trolmastersecrets #Autopots #GreenJoy 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 🙏 With true love comes happiness 💚🙏 Always believe in your self and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart , be a giver and the universe will give back to you in ways you could not even imagine so 💚 More info and complete updates from all my adventures can be found ⬆️ link in the profile description ⬆️ Friendly reminder all you see here is pure research and for educational purposes only 💚Growers Love To you All 💚

Day 78- Still haven't got around to staking. Since both plants were watered last night, no more water till harvest on Day 82. Yellow Markers final weight after a week curing is 14.6 grams. I still have some medicine left so this will have atleast another week and half to cure some more. Day 79- I decided against the bamboo stakes. But will have them for future grows. I think I'm just going to ride it out till day 82. Hopefully a buddy comes through to help with trimming or my weekend will be very busy 😂 Day 80- No major adjustments just rotating plants. Day 81- No major adjustments just rotating plants. Tomorrow is Harvest Day! Day 82- Harvest Day! I got started late in the evening and wasn't done till the morning of day 83. I'm beginning to think I should have waited on harvesting Yellow Marker but you live and you learn! These plants smell so damn good. The Runt I may end up getting an eighth to a quarter from. She only had 5 branches which were still pretty shitty but had surprisingly tightened up bud formations. But that's on me, not genetics. But the Blue Marker...her genetics were really on point. I'll atleast get an ounce...maybe two out of her. Both plants have a strong lemony-citrus/piney smell to them. Can't wait to try it out! While trimming I accidentally cut off a few pieces. Instead of tossing it in the trim bin (which is where most of the runt went lol) I left them infront of a fan to quick dry them so I could try them out. I will also be drying these probably 2 days longer before placing them in their jars. The other ones I had to take out multiple times to get the moisture correct. I will be back to post more journals (auto amnesia haze is next) and also post a taste test/harvest results as soon as I'm done drying. Overall for a first timer, I'm impressed on what I've learned and what I've accomplished. Kudos for the insight @NeedsMoreFans As to not waste, the doggo is very happy with her fan leaves as treats. The sugar leaves and trim I will be making into a Green Dragon tincture with 190 proof Everclear. My goal is to be able to take one ml (an average eyedropper) and mix it in with something so I can dose during the day and have it on me, and to not have to worry about taking time to roll a joint or to carry anything on me. Or well...smell like I smoked. Will definitely let you guys know!

Still no signs of flowering yet, maybe first little sight of calyx growth. Hopefully will hit 4ft! Been using cinnamon to top my substrate to prevent algea growth.

Flowering is on for sure now with the stretching and hairiness arriving within the 1st few days of flipping. They have all been whacking the growth on and showing all of their potential budsites like stafish. FFT#1 is over the 60L pots edge now and has been tied into place for the vertical bud stacking. She feels very indica and is happy to stay lower. She is going to be an nice chunky squat girl at her end. FFT#5 has had a great week with her girth over-reaching the edges by a good way and also going way more vertical. I have been supercropping where needed with these big ladies and their recovery has been rapid. She has remained put after her sessions of bending to form a very nice 2ft×2ft canopy of heads. FFT#7 Has not stopped growing out in all directions since the flip. she is at the back sonhas a good amount of space to stretch out and hit a great yield i think. Her sativa genetics are really obvious with her vertical stretch already and I cannot wait to see the bud sets she makes. Theyballnhave a good amount of mode stacking readybforbthebbuds to join together and I am hoping they keep this tightness throughout the flowering period. I have a little tip burn on them but nothing too worrying. plain water for their next 2 weeks I think then another amendment run. These testers are knocking it out of the park so far with some amazing growth spurts and rapid recovery times. If the flowering is as good as the vegging ability , we have my new staple seed supplier !!!!. These are winners already for me , roll on harvest.

I also added a tablespoon of Happy Frog Cavern Culture to the pots before watering it in. Got the DIY CO2 generator going with a fresh batch of sugar and yeast. 12/16: Fed today. Good week in the garden...plants are looking great...stretching has commenced.

Buds are flowering up super nice! Had a tiny issue where I thought it was much worse then it was (I got sum water on the leaves and it burnt circle shaped burns on them) I worried it was a fungal disease or something. I removed the leaves in a panic, and since haven't had any issues! Anyway the smell is amazing already I'm getting notes I really didn't expect to smell on a Superboof cross! Almost remiscent of Creature Feature or Acapulco Gold with a bit more gas! It is only week 4, so ideally the Terps should transform. I am loving it so far The bud structure is looking amazing, the top nugs are almost spear shaped which is really cool, some of the buttom bugs are almost spear shaped as well but more circle/fat. Standard nug look. It's beginning to stack some frost on as well! I have a good idea the nugs are going to have a nice lumpy - spear shaped buds. Almost looks as if the tops are foxtailing which would be really cool too! Amazing genetics. Every issue I've encountered has been so quickly corrected and bounced back. No herms, definently high grade genetics and I'm happy to be working with Homegrown Genetics to be able to post this seed to harvest and share with everyone!

Harvested a little early because of the diseases in the plants nearby (botrytis, mildew, a little bit of spider mites), didn't wanna risk the whole crop so I just cut everything down and gave it a good cleaning with water and hydrogen peroxide for the first time ever. From my point of view I lost quite a bit of trichomes doing that, but do I regret it? Not a single bit, the trichomes that you actually lose by doing a bud wash are already degrading and aren't holding onto anything, so they would make the flavor worse (also from my pov) if they stayed there, also I didn't have a roof over them for almost 5 months so they had a lot of debris so I rather not smoke all of that

day 52 update- the nutrient problem is apparently gone now and the buds keep growing so I did nothing special this week- The scrog mess is nicely covered with tails and there is not more burning issues.
