She’s so close! I am crazy excited for harvest. This is my first grow of anything, I’ve never harvested the fruits of my tedious labor. What an adventure this has been! The trim is what I’m really looking forward to, well all of it really. She’s not near as thirsty anymore I watered her four or five days ago (I work nights I don’t know what day it is lol) and she’s still heavy. So close! Peace friends

SPONSERED BY VIPARSPECTRA AND ZAMNESIA SEEDS . The week as all seedling wasn't quite special but I did notice alot of girls starting to display pistles very early on , which isn't a bad sign at all just hopfully they achieve a good size 30inch to 40 inch I would prefer . Watering I've got under control already with the LEDs . Temps are a different story they have been a nitemare to keep under control , two heaters full power and the LEDS are only keeping the room about 20oC at best sometimes ... So gonna buy some insulation and seal the room up some more and hopfully keep some heat trapped inside the room and hopfully the heating bill reduces by some as this run will cost appox 900£ gbp 1200$ appox 1000€ appox Thoe come this years summer run my temps will be ideal without even using a heater at all which will reduce power to 1kw/h from 2kw/h . Plants day 14 review Girl scout cookie's ZAMNESIA These little women has been displaying the best vigour ans size in the room , hinting towards a big yeilder , there's some nice purpling of the stems and some leaves 🍃 looks like I might have got a purple pheno cookies 🍪 time will certainly tell Do si dos RQS These girls are smaller than most in the tent but this looks to be more genicitis than anything as there all displaying a smaller size compared to the other pots and not as much vigour but all in sync showing the gentics are solid but might be just a slow start for these girls Gorilla glue ZAMNESIA Hoping the funny gorilla girl pulls through as I was looking forwards to having some glue the other two plants are on par with the GSC and doing quite well in size and also structure is also like the GCS very thick stems for such small plants. I think these @VIPARSPECTRA lights are playing a good part in allowing these girls to use what light is needed for a healthy structure Runtz ZAMNESIA Girls are looking like there genicitis has lots of potential for a very vigorous plant , the last runtz I grew was very big plants hoping for the same type of growth . One does appear to acquire some molding on the frist true leaves but seems not to have slowed any growth or reduced vigorous growth so if you spot this I'm not worried , very vigorous strain Lemon haze - ETS look like they could be bigger plants hopfully they make for a nice grow and don't get out of control making me think should I top my haze ? Blueberry Headbang- ETS This has been the hardest Germination of any seeds and I only got 1 decent seed pop up this one plant I'm taking super good care of as I wanna try Blueberry headbang Headlight kush - ETS a few of these have come up in good old fashion no visible problems and look to grow pretty good I think where gonna have a couple of headlights kush . Seem to be solid and all in sync to whatever part of growth there meant to be at . All plants are doing amazing 👏 they where showing great vigorous growth and some steady growth . Planning on keeping as many girls as possible alothough 16 might be the upper limit if these girls get big as this is the frist time I've used LEDs Im not sure what to expect . The same as hps ? Definitely no the growth from the LEDs is alot better than HPS and I haven't even dailed the temps to stay super steady Going to introduce my GHE flora line at low dosage to not shock the little girls and not to stun any growth . Will closely monitor for any sign of defenices

They're all showing signs of sex now♀️ Definitely stunted them during the week due to a timer issue but hopefully we can make up for it during the rest of flower🤷‍♂️🏽 Really bushy plants that I need to defoliate sometime during this week. ✂️🌿

(At the end of the photographs there is a video .. if you look at them enlarged it does not appear on smartphones and tablets) All by handmade.. Welcome Ganja lovers 🌍🌎🌏 We are today at the conclusion of this exciting cultivation journal I hope you have already enjoyed the photos of these beautiful flowers 🙂 In the end they speak better than me.. But anyway.. This was a very good experience KALINI ASIA is an amazing Kush strain 👌👌 I have grown all five seeds that ZAMNESIA sent us, each with something different..some nutrients or the specific cultivation technique.. But in the end the story was the same Vigorous Resistant Great aroma Good trichome production And heavy buds production 🔝🔝 I went far enough beyond the timing reported by the seed bank, it could probably have affected the heat wave in the last month 🌡️🌡️🌡️ Especially K # 5 performed more like a Sativa, even in the very fox-tailed shape of the buds. Personally I love them 😍🔥 However, apart from K # 4, all the others showed flowers with that shape. By researching, I discovered that genetics from Asia tend to show flowers with these characteristics.. The effect is still purely Kush, and so is the flavor. But the inflorescence production is really powerful. The buds have grown almost entirely on each branch. Concerning the purple / dark pink colors.. K # ​​1 and K # 3 did not show these shades, but as terpenes they were the same K # ​​2 was the only one grown in an 11l pot practicing lst, exactly like K # 1-3, but where I used my Living soil.. Its colors ranged from rosy to purple, and it was a sight to behold as it slowly depleted all nutrients. To be honest it is the best and with the most delicious scents of all five 🙌 To its detriment, however, it has a much lower production than its two sisters in 11l.. [ For lovers of numbers I will report some data later ] K# ​​4 also presented colors tending to pink / purple, less marked than K # 2-5.. On its side it had a greater resin production 🚀 But I think the (accidental) topping has slowed her down a bit 🤔✂️ K # ​​5 instead was the one with the darkest purple color of all.. But now it has turned more towards a brownish / purple color.. However, I repeat.. Slightly different look But flowers with the same fragrances and effects. As I reported above, this strain is very Kush, so it tends to be earthy and spicy with some citrus notes in the distance. Kush effect, sweet calm of the senses. Personally I find it a ganja to use regardless of the time of day or the various chores done .. Also good for sleeping : 1: Most users will find it more suitable for relaxing moments.. Anyway I generally use vaporizers , because I find them the top from all points of view.. And I generally vape between 180 ° up to 200 ° using mighty or ghost mv1 and sometimes dynavap m. Top flavor and effect 🤩 However, to better assess the quality of the flowers, he always carried out a smoke test Organic papers and filters and only weed, no tobacco or blunt.. Four weeks after the cut, I carried out a first pre-test for each single plant.. The weed was already burning very well and the ash was, and is, a nice light gray color.. This test was done precisely to evaluate drying. To properly evaluate the flavor, especially with varieties with Kush-style terpenes, I wait at least two months after cutting.. So I did another test for each one, and the taste was great 👌👌 In the video you saw I instead decided to roll a nice two-gram joint, with a mix of all five flowers 😎😁 Solo test 🛸 All excellent : 1:: 1:: 1: I love Kush so I'm biased A really good variety that I can only recommend ! .......... ......... ....... ..... About the nutrients Leaving aside the one grown in the Living soil, all the others drew nutrients mainly from the fertilizer that ZAMNESIA sent us.. The MONSTER-MIX What to say.. Really a great product Extremely easy to use With a cocoa scent that makes you want to eat it once opened And plants really appreciate it 🔝👌💯🔥 I have never checked the pH, as I do with my Living soil, and everything went top .. With one bag I managed to feed four of them almost entirely In addition to the MONSTER-MIX and my Living soil, I have added all mycorrhiza plants during transplantation. Also, from the fourth week of life onwards, I used some liquid organic stimulant. Below I report the exact quantities I used for each product (total calculation) For K # 1-2-3 I used, each for each one _Rootjuice (Biobizz) 4ml _Bioheaven (**) 7.5ml _Topmax (**) 13ml _Activera (**) 4ml _Activator (Biomagno) 4ml _Biomass (**) 0.5ml _Voodojuice (Advanced Nutrients) 6,5ml _Piranha (**) 6.5ml _Tarantula (**) 6,5ml _Rinhoskin (**) 15,5ml _Sensizym (**) 13ml _Molasses 23ml For K # 4-5 something less (total sum values, each) _Rootjuice (Biobizz) 3ml _Bioheaven (**) 7.5ml _Topmax (**) 6.25ml _Activera (**) 3ml _Activator (Biomagno) 2.25ml _Voodojuice (Advanced Nutrients) 2.25ml _Piranha (**) 2.25ml _Tarantula (**) 2.25ml _Rinhoskin (**) 6.75ml _Sensizym (**) 6ml _Molasses 10,5ml Regarding mycorrhias, I have used an Italian patented product for many years which is called Micosat F 👌👌👌 I spread about 10g in contact with the roots On top of that, I just washed it down with normal water .......... ......... ....... ..... Always remaining in the field of numbers, for lovers of the sector I report below the various days of vegetative, flowering and respective quantities by weight of the flowers (weighed after drying, precise manicure and maturation of two months in a glass jar) K # ​​1/2/3 _VEG STAGE: 6 weeks _BLOOM STAGE: 10 weeks K # ​​4 _VEG STAGE: 5 weeks _BLOOM STAGE: 10 weeks K # ​​5 _VEG STAGE: 4 weeks _BLOOM STAGE: 11.5 weeks Regarding the final production, I report the various weight systems below _K #1 52g _K #2 31g _K #3 55g _K #4 21g _K #5 41g As lighting I first used a 205w Optica2 led panel in the vegetative phase, but in addition to them there were also two other plants During the flowering phase I switched to using two Black-dog LED panels, each of 200w But even in this phase, the girls divided the light source together with another plant (CORAÇÃO BRASILEIRO diary...55g dry buds) and two more in the last week .. So , 400w for six plants 💡💡💡💡 × 🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌳 Personally I am more than satisfied with the yield compared to the final quality. .......... ......... ....... ..... What to say more To be honest, this genetics literally surprised me I can only recommend it to everyone and, even if you don't find the purple phenotype, don't worry too much .. However, you will have a lady plant in your hands who will be able to give you many large and fragrant flowers .. Thanks to Grow Diaries and especially Zamnesia for this opportunity 🙏 And thank you all for appreciating : 1:: 1:: 1: I am looking forward to other similar competitions.. Because personally, every day of these weeks has been a victory. Having the chance to grow cannabis is already the biggest reward 💚 Until next time.. Stay connected 😎 Ciao ✌️ 🇮🇹 . . . (The support sticks used, which were a little too long, were unfortunately the only ones I found during lockdown)😅

Sie hat leider keine Fehler vergeben und war auch relativ zickig. Hab am Ende noch zwei drei nanners auf ihr gefunden aber keine seeds. Die müssten in den letzten Tagen gekommen sein da ich davor akribisch kontrolliert habe, weil die Sour Zoda auch gezwittert hat. Leider ein minus für umami an der Stelle (daher auch nur die 5 Sterne). Aber auch hier leider muss ich mich beschweren, weil sie meilenweit weg ist von der Beschreibung, die artificial Mango, Ananas und Apfel Geschmack beschreibt.

@MephistoGenetics, Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. This is my second cultivation ever and it will be fun to try a bigger space than my closet grow. First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of ​​3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable environment in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 10 pcs 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. But there are no cultivation rooms to be displayed here, so I continue with what is most important. Today I have put my seeds in paper towel and hope the seeds have germinated within a few days. I am very excited to see how the new growroom will work and how this Stilton Special will turn out. Strain Name: Stilton Special F1 Genetic heritage - Sour Livers F3 x Northern Cheese Haze F3 Strain behaviour - Stilton grows well from the off, and develops into a stout but branchy specimine that leads to a fine yield of awesome flowers. She's not too stretchy but also is sizeable enough with good growth, to train and shape to your liking. Flowers develop pretty fast and grow to a good size, it may to advised to clear out some undergrowth and if needs be a very gentle defoliation mid-way through the grow, although leaf tucking may suffice well enough.The end product is of top shelf quality and she doesn't lack in yield either.Give your garden, nose, and body a treat and be sure to indulge in a slice of Stilton this year, You won't regret it. Size - 50 - 70 cm Structure - Medium height but bushy Flower Density - 9/10 Indica/Sativa - 65/35 Cycle Time - 65 to 70 days from sprout Yield - 90 to 140 grams as a single plant Best Method for overall high yield - 9-12 per 1,2m x 1,2m sq in 10-15 Liter pots (Soil) Aroma - Very strong, Cheesey/fruity/sour/spicey/ with a dash of coffee. Taste - Dank berries Effect - Good hybrid powerful but balanced effect Medicinal Benefits - TBA Best Grown - Indoor/Greenhouse Cannabinoids - TBA Extract information - Ideal extract candidate - High in resin, oil and terps. ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. 2017-08-21. Started to germinate the seed. ..................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... 2017-08-23. Seed germinated and put in small pot in the humidity dome. ......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... 2017-08-27.

Hello to you who read my diary, I just want to say that I am pleased that you have chosen to check in with me and in my diary. I just want to say that I do this for myself and for a steady flow of my medicine. Everything you read and see in my diary is 100% honest and I will never distort or beautify anything here. I document my crops so that I can learn from my mistakes and also to look back at those different crops. I try to update with pictures every day and with text if something special has happened in the garden. This is my strainhunt for the best medicine and the beginning of my journey with cannabis and the cultivation of it. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-30. Cleaned the room this morning, just vacuuming and cleaning with chlorine solution. Im testing the fan to control temp and humidity, it works great. Added a movie. Everything is looking great right now. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2017-08-31. 3 new pics. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-01.

1/12/26 4:18AM MONDAY.....💪💪💪💪👌 1/12 CANNAKAN DAY MEDICINAL SLAVERY WOULD MAKE HARVEST A BREEZE!! ABOUT THE LEDS Yes, the **Samsung LM301H EVO diodes** in your Mars Hydro lights (likely an FC-E series like FC-E3000, FC-E4000, or similar) are among the most efficient horticultural LEDs available right now—individual diodes hit **3.14 μmol/J** efficacy, pushing the whole fixture to around **2.85–2.9 μmol/J** PPE (photosynthetic photon efficacy) in manufacturer specs and independent tests. That's top-tier for full-spectrum grow lights, meaning they convert more electrical power into usable plant photons than older diodes or cheaper LEDs. If they "seem more efficient than the PPFD meter says" (your plants thriving at lower wattage/height adjustments), that's actually common and not a contradiction—it's often the **real-world efficiency** shining through once nutes/stress are fixed. Here's why this happens and what your recent wattage drop (a few more watts lower) likely means: ### Why Samsung LM301H EVO Can "Seem" More Efficient Than Raw PPFD Readings Suggest - **High PPE + Uniform Distribution**: These diodes excel at producing photons in the PAR range (400–700nm) with minimal waste (heat/loss). Mars Hydro FC-EVOs achieve strong average PPFD (e.g., 750–1000+ μmol/m²/s in tests at recommended heights/power) with even spread—no hot spots wasting energy. When your nutes were suboptimal (Advanced Nutrients issues), plants couldn't fully use the light (wasted photons → stress, stretch, lower efficiency). Now dialed in (GH powder + aminos + mycos), they convert more of that PPFD into growth—making the light "feel" stronger/more efficient even if meter numbers stay the same or drop slightly. - **Meter Limitations & Calibration**: - Handheld PAR meters (especially cheap/older ones) can under-read full-spectrum LEDs like LM301H EVO (strong white + red enhancement). They often have poor spectral response to the exact mix, reading 10–30% low compared to pro tools (Apogee SQ-500) or calibrated apps. - If you're using an app like Photone (mentioned in your diary), it's generally more accurate for Samsung full-spectrum lights (especially on iPhone; Android varies but often close with diffuser/paper). Many growers report Photone matching or exceeding cheap handhelds on LM301H setups—sometimes showing higher effective PPFD than a basic meter implies. - Bottom line: Your plants are the ultimate meter. Thriving (miraculous growth, no burn/stress) at lower wattage means the effective usable PPFD is higher than a potentially under-reading meter suggests—efficiency win. ### Your Wattage Drop & What It Means Lowering by a few more watts (on top of the earlier ~10% drop) is smart and aligns with the efficiency gains: - Dimming on Mars Hydro FC series is **very linear**—tests show PPFD percentage tracks close to (or slightly above) the dimmer % because diodes run more efficiently at lower currents (less heat/loss). - Example: Dropping from 100% to 90% might only reduce PPFD by ~8–10%, not full 10%, due to that efficiency curve. - Your plants handling it (still "miraculously better") without stretch or pale leaves confirms the sweet spot: likely 450–650 μmol/m²/s veg/late veg range now, with room to push if pistils emerge. - Solar bonus: Every watt saved = less battery drain on cloudy days, cooler tent (less fan/AC draw), and more headroom for extra plants without spiking consumption. **Practical next steps**: - Recheck PPFD (if using Photone/handheld): Average multiple canopy spots at current height/power—aim 450–600 for late veg autos, 600–800 early flower. - Watch response: If nodes stay tight/dark green/no cupping, you can drop another 5% or lower height slightly for denser canopy. - Log kWh if your inverter shows it—track the drop to celebrate the savings. - If meter still "under-says" vs. plant performance, trust the plants more—Samsung EVOs are proven beasts when the rest of the grow is dialed. This is textbook optimization: nute fix → better photon use → lower power for same/better results → solar efficiency skyrockets. You're building a truly lean system. How low are you at now (e.g., 70–75W total?)? Any pistils or new growth explosions today? Keep the momentum—it's paying off big. 🥊🍌👨‍🔬🚨🌞💪💪💪💪💪 1/15/26 12:36AM L-Phenylalanine: https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/L-Phenylalanine#section=Crystal-Structures That’s your Mars Hydro bar-style LED grow light setup in a compact grow tent (looks like a 2x2 or similar Spider Farmer tent branding on the mylar walls), running super efficiently right now! Breaking down what I see from the photos: • The light is a multi-bar LED fixture (probably from Mars Hydro’s FC series, like FC3000, FC4000, or a smaller EVO variant) with Samsung LM301H (or similar LM301B/H EVO) diodes—these are high-end, efficient chips known for uniform distribution, low heat, and great full-spectrum output (warm white + red/IR boosts for veg/flower). • It’s hung at 19 inches (measured from the light bars to the canopy or sensor plane, with that white dotted line marker). The tent shows a hygrometer/thermometer combo reading 76°F / 53% RH (nice stable veg conditions—cooler side helps prevent stretch). • Your PAR meter app is showing 327 μmol/m²/s PPFD (Photosynthetic Photon Flux Density) at that spot/height—solid reading for where you’re at. • Plants look like young cannabis in veg stage: multiple small pots (fabric or repurposed buckets like Krøger cottage cheese tubs—classic budget move!), healthy green canopy with some colorful accents (maybe early purpling or strain traits), topped or in early training, sitting in coco coir or similar media. • Power draw: ~50W current (from the energy usage screenshot), averaging super low over time (0.48–0.76 kWh daily average). That’s impressively efficient—likely dimmed way down or a lower-wattage model (e.g., 150–300W rated, but running at partial power). Total consumption over 30 days at ~14.5 kWh is pennies on the electric bill. This aligns perfectly with your earlier plan to target ~500 PPFD but getting great results at lower wattage/intensity. Right now at 19” and 327 PPFD: • That’s in the sweet spot for early-mid vegetative stage cannabis (typical recs: 300–600 μmol/m²/s for veg, starting lower ~300–400 for young plants to avoid stress, ramping up as they bush out). • Bar-style lights like this excel at even spread (no hot center like older quantum boards), so your canopy is getting consistent light without bleaching or stretch in spots. • Low power (49.6W) means minimal heat buildup—fans and passive cooling handle it easily, keeping temps/RH dialed (76°F/53% is golden for veg; prevents mold and encourages compact growth). Why it feels “great results at lower than recommended”: • Samsung diodes are top-tier efficient (often 2.8–3.1 μmol/J), so you hit usable PPFD without cranking full power. • Many Mars Hydro FC models recommend 18–24” for veg at 50–75% dim (your 19” fits right in). • Your plants are responding well—lush, no obvious deficiencies/stress, and you’re feeling physically ready to top/fill pots after the delay. To push toward your 500 PPFD goal without overdoing it: • Lower the light a few inches (try 16–18”) incrementally—PPFD scales roughly with the inverse square law, so dropping height boosts intensity noticeably (could jump 20–50% depending on spread). • Or bump dimmer % if it’s not maxed (your 50W draw suggests plenty of headroom). • Retest PPFD at multiple canopy spots for average (center often higher, edges lower in bars). • Watch for tacoing/upward leaf curl (too much light) or stretch (too little). This setup is dialed for low-energy, healthy veg growth—perfect for your “lower wattage wins” approach. Plants are happy, tent’s stable, and you’re crushing it efficiency-wise. If you drop the height or dim up, snap another meter reading/pic—I can help fine-tune further. How old are these ladies (weeks from seed/clone)? Any specific strain notes, or planning to flip to flower soon? Keep the momentum—today’s a win! 🌱💪😂 1/18 11:58AM. BRAM STOKERS TRAILER PARK DRACULA........I SHOULD BE WORKING ON THE PLANTS BUT THIS IS REALLY GOOD.

A breve raccoglieremo, il freddo aumenta e la piantane risente. Niente da aggiungere, ho commesso degli errori e messo sotto stress le piante che cmq hanno fatto il loro ciclo.
