----------------------- Update start week 4: ----------------------- We entered the first week of bloom for MBAP. Have had a perfect run-up and you notice that. She is ready to bloom abundantly. Besides the usual leaftucking, I also did some defoliation of the lower leaves and shoots. I have reduced the humidity in the room and we are now around 60%. New update later this week! -------------- End week 4 : -------------- End of the first week of flowering behind us. Everything is going well, good growth and budsites continue to develop. I further removed the lower shoots and did some leaftucking where necessary. She has developed into a beautiful, large and open plant. Ideal for her future bud development. On to the 2nd week of flowering. Until next week everyone!

Second harvest of this strain. Love it! I have a third one in flowering, so lets see if I can further improve the numbers. I got a lot of nice trim too! so smelly and sticky!

Day 68 flower. I stopped using the Ripen on day 65. Since then I've been using Florakleen at 2tsp per gallon and RO water only for flush. Pineapple express is flushing at a faster rate still. I had to brace several colas because of the size so I'm really watching closely for any molding issues. I'm planning to hang her up at day 71ish. Rainbow cake is turning a little purple. It looks like its almost finished and I'm planning to pull around day 71 as well. London mint cake is finishing up nicely. I think she's going to need a little more time flushing so she might get pulled a little later than the other 2. Hope you like my pics and videos!

Today i changed the light from Mars Hydro300W classic to MH TS1000. Can tell straight away its much brighter and more like the sun. Hopefully it’ll be better and they grow strong! Ive had the ladies in their 2 litre fibre pots and been watering a bit more now that they’re out of the propagator since 3 days ago. Actually i took them out late i suppose, and maybe the reason one of them has splotches is because of the high humidity of those couple of nights i thought it would be ok without the extraction fan for a few hours, however the ranges were going from like 90-70 or something. Anyway they’re big enough now to be outside on their own. Might be a bit late to start nutrients but going to pick some up on the weekend and start them off on Biobizz standard nutrient. Got to be watering more than i have as today noticed on 2 of them the leaves were drooping. Think they should be watered twice and around 75ml per plant but still getting used to these fibre pots that dry out quickly. Last thing i want is to screw it up early and lose any of these precious babies. Going to ask a couple questions to clear up some queries i got. Till next week...

This week has been great progress on the plants, as u can see, giving your plants the oxygen it needs and they will flourish I wish I've gotten a better pump from the beginning, but o well learning curve lol, it has been getting warmer now that spring is arriving, the inside of my tent is at 80° so the only issue I see in the future is water temp. rising but ama try to keep her as cool as possible. (Not running a chiller) I did started to see some pistols coming out so, she starting to flower. Ama switch her nutrients to bloom A&B next week as with some Nirvana see how that goes. Am still checking the pH twice a week (Once in the morning, and again late afternoon.)

Welcome First and foremost. Thanks you so much to Zamnesia, plagron and the Eternity Cup. So excited to start this competition everyone! Gonna be a fun few months!!! 😁 1-18-25 Shook both seeds in some sandpaper. ( Pesky helmet heads). Dropped in some water with a dash of peroxide. Approximately 8am ish. Every 4 hrs poke the seed down in the water. ( Wanna make sure she takes it.) 1-19 Approximately 24 hrs later. Shells are slightly cracked, just enough to see the white. But not quite a tail yet. This is where I like it. Grabbed my hand 6 inch pot and filled it with Hp promix. Added 1/8th tsp Mammoth mykos. Added 1 ounce of water in the center of the pot only. Around 1/4 inch hole, sprinkled with Mammoth ( just a dusting ). Seeds planted. Dome placed. See you on day 1 Lets GO!

I hope they've stopped stretching now, my lord. Pistils are shooting out of both of them, except for the tops that were closer to the light; they've stagnated. I've cut off the worst of the damaged parts and taken out the filter to allow more headroom. Leaves are still amazingly green, full dues to RQS for their nutes. Simple but seems to be very effective!!

Do you see that SWAMPMONSTER in the corner of the tent there ?? The Queen towers above the canopy and the rest of the plants lol. It's really interesting from using the Smart Proteins, i think how they work is that the plant is able to process them and compensate any kind of slight deficiency which means that each plant that gets the proteins is able to grow to it's maximum potential and at the same time grow to its **individual** potential... that's why each of these plants has so much "character", because if you look closely it's less a question of phenotype but more like "individual expression".... INTERESTING !!! Anyway that's about the visual... my main concern about these is how loud they f-ing smell !!! ITS PROBLEMATIC, so be conscious of that if you plant to grow these one day ! REALLY REALLY LOUD, honestly there should be an additional category on GD like "problematic" which is beyond the "strong smell" category. I have two large carbon filters on two 1330m3/h fans and it's a problem. Hope you understand how unusual that is for a plant in veg lol... I think the smart protein probably affects how strong the plants smell because all the plants seem more smelly than expected... TBH i'll fix the smell issue but hopefully it's a good sign and an indicator of the quality i can expect by harvest time? These also got two rounds of defoliation , and i flipped them to flower like 4 days ago. This was an exciting veg to me, but now is when it gets interesting, let's see how beautiful these flowers are !! Test genetics always have that little bit of mystery to them right? By the way, I'm often visiting this site, so drop me a message about whatever, especially if you have advice ! Thanks for following along with me, i appreciate it really ! ITS FLOWER TIME FOLKS LETS SEE! 🚀

Hello. This is the end of week 8 and the beginning of week 9 of flowering. Although the seed description said 10 to 11 weeks, I going to cut these girls down at 10 weeks. I need the room to grow and flower some Mac and Crack that's already growing.. Getting close to harvest I'll start flushing, But I'll give them 1 more feeding and then nothing but water till the end. I get much better taste and the buds smoke better if I flush and get the chemicals out of the soil before harvest. Well, that's the end of the Freak Bros. book # 10... I think there are 3 or 4 more books left in that series. I'll show them in future diaries. My other diaries have the old underground comic book, Weirdo by Robert Crumb if you want to check them out to see. The buds are really getting solid now and some are getting heavy and heading for the floor. Good times... Getting some great smells now. Musk is the most common. But some, smell of Citrus with Musk under tones. The smell is overpowering my carbon filter. I can smell these plants out by the street if the wind is blowing that way. Pure Lemon Skunk smell by the street. Nice. Getting near the end of their lives now and there are more yellow leaves as the plants pull what they need from the big fan leaves before turning the leaves brown. Some plants have sticky resin and some have slippery resin. OK. Have Fun. Chuck.

Buds are looking nice, getting plum and frosty fast. Shes still still stretching and bushing out. It was very stormy and wet this week but got some burst of nice sunlight that dried her off right away. I didn't need to eater but still fed compost tea and the stuff leftover from brewing as a top dress. Compost tea has liquid kelp and cal mag and around 700 ppm.

🌱 Flowering Update – Full Week 5 Breakdown → Entering Week 6 Week 5 was focused on entering full bulking mode with a controlled increase in volume and EC, followed by a deliberate pause to restore root oxygenation after several heavy feeds. 💧 Irrigation & Nutrition – Week 5 (Exact Recipes) Start of Week 5 – 7/1 (22 L | 21 °C) • EC: 1.568 mS · pH: 6.3 • Sensi Cal-Mag Xtra: 30 ml • Bio·Grow: 6.3 ml • Bio·Bloom: 109 ml • Top·Max: 22–23 ml • Bio·Heaven: 28 ml • Bud Candy: 38 ml • Atazyme: 25 ml ➡️ First full-volume bulking feed. Strong uptake and no lockout signs. Mid Week 5 – 9/1 (22 L | 21 °C) • EC: 1.568 mS · pH: 6.3 • Sensi Cal-Mag Xtra: 30 ml • Bio·Grow: 6.3 ml • Bio·Bloom: 133 ml • Top·Max: 23 ml • Bio·Heaven: 21 ml • Bud Candy: 38 ml • Atazyme: 25 ml ➡️ Bio·Bloom increased to push flower mass. Plants responded with visible calyx stacking. End of Week 5 – PK Introduction – 11/1 (22 L | 21 °C) • EC: 1.640 mS · pH: 6.3 • Sensi Cal-Mag Xtra: 30 ml • Bio·Grow: 6 ml • Bio·Bloom: 115 ml • Top·Max: 23 ml • Bio·Heaven: 21 ml • Bud Candy: 38 ml • Atazyme: 25 ml • PK 13/14: 6 ml ➡️ Controlled PK introduction. EC peaked safely. Minor tip burn confirmed we were at the productive upper limit. Recovery Feed – 13/1 (22 L | 21 °C) • EC: 1.370 mS · pH: 6.2 • Sensi Cal-Mag Xtra: 25 ml • Bio·Grow: 5 ml • Bio·Bloom: 105 ml • Top·Max: 22 ml • Bio·Heaven: 20 ml • Bud Candy: 36 ml • Atazyme: 22 ml ➡️ Intentional reduction to let the substrate breathe after multiple heavy irrigations. 🌡️ Environmental Data (Week 5 Averages) • Day: 24–25 °C • Night: 18–19 °C • Humidity: 50–55 % • VPD: ~1.0–1.3 kPa • PPFD: ~880–920 µmol/m²/s • DLI: ~39–40 mol/day Stable conditions allowed efficient nutrient uptake without excess transpiration. 🧠 Plant Response • Strong structure supporting increasing flower weight • Active bulking phase (buds still stacking) • Minor tip burn = intentional high-performance feeding • Color differences consistent with F1 phenotype variability, not deficiencies 🔜 Focus for Week 6 • Resume irrigation only when pots are clearly light • Next feed: flowering base without PK • Following feed: single, targeted PK 35/60 application • Maintain PPFD below 920 (no CO₂ this cycle) • Preserve night temperature differential to enhance density and color expression Week 5 set the foundation for final mass. Week 6 is about precision finishing, not pushing numbers.
