Great strain to grow. Have done outdoors a few times so had an idea that it would take well to SCROG but wow really even canopy and all the buds are nice and solid. Trimming was a sticky operation, so so much resin and red hairs. Looking forward to smoking it! Really really happy with the yield

Hey Grow Diaries fam, We’re back with another exciting update on our PCR adventure! We’ve hit Week 11, which means we’re now in Week 7 of flowering, and the transformation continues to amaze us. Overview The PCRs are truly in their prime, with colors intensifying and buds swelling beautifully. This week has been all about fine-tuning their nutrient intake and ensuring they get exactly what they need to finish strong. Environment and Conditions Tent: 3x3, kept spotless to ensure the best possible growing environment. Lighting: ViparSpectra P2000, continuing to provide the perfect spectrum for our flowering ladies. Watering: TDS at 420, pH 6, and water temperature at 21°C, keeping everything balanced and consistent. Nutrient Regimen We’ve made a critical adjustment to our feeding schedule this week: TopBooster: Phased out as we shift focus. P-Boost: Cut from the mix as we near the final stages of flowering. K-Boost: Increased to provide that crucial potassium boost, ensuring maximum bud density and potency. This tweak in our regimen is aimed at enhancing the final development of our buds, making them as dense and potent as possible. Growth and Development The PCRs continue to fill out the tent, with their buds growing denser and more aromatic by the day. The increased K-Boost has given them that extra push, and the results are clear – we’re seeing some seriously impressive bud formation and trichome development. Reflections This week has been about dialing in the final touches to ensure our PCRs finish strong. The colors are popping, the buds are dense and sticky, and the aromas are out of this world. We’re gearing up for an incredible harvest, and the anticipation is building! A huge shout out to: Aptus Holland: Your nutrients are the backbone of this grow, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. Art Genetix: For creating such a stellar strain. The PCRs are a joy to grow. Grow Diaries Community: Your support and enthusiasm keep us motivated. Let’s keep pushing forward together! Here’s to another fantastic week of growing! Stay positive, keep those good vibes flowing, and enjoy every moment of this amazing journey.

Week 5 had been amazing just that this week we had 3 days of rain which was great for the plant. I gave her some Tea again except that this time I use the rain water I collected. Which was ph at 6.3 and the run of off was ph at 6.8 The plant is around 10 inches now and I am starting to notice some red/purple lines on the stems. The smell is weak but it is still a little early to judge. I would really like some feedback you guys.

Overall growing cycle of this strain was absolutely fenomenal, the training i did on her paid out really good coz it got me close to a hundred grams dry on a 60 cm automatic plant. She handled nutrients and lst very well, i never topped her, all that branching was caused by LST.

The swell is underway! Some are leaning over from the weight. I took a tester and few days ago, just smoked it, and I'm impressed! I can't wait to get this cured and ready and taste her again! Thanks for looking!

Yeeehaw!! #s 3 and 4 to harvest and both also main-line/manifold and I am sold! THese buds were massive stinky ol things. I'm a classic outdoor grower and grew up wet trimming, so these were drying on a mesh rack in a 2x2 tent to control humidity.

It's been 61 days of flower now and they only got another week or week and a half left. The gals are still loving the new fc4800, TSW2000 and their new 8x8 mars hydro grow tent as much as I do👍 leaves are sticking straight up towards the light. Love how easy the zippers are to open and close. Nice and strong and guaranteed to last. It has extra material on the backside of the zipper that helps for light leaksand enough ports and vents for anything you need in it👍. the tsw2000 is still going strong and is also a very good light. Its been going almost nonstop for 6 months and still working the same as when I got it👍. not much heat off both lights but the fc4800 is alot cooler and the heat-sinks work extremely well. I have it daisy chained to the tsw2000 and 1 dimmer controls the other and i don't need to be reaching in too far to dim the other light, it's awesome and I can't wait to buy more lights to daisy 4 together👍. I would recommend this light to everyone that grows with leds and have trouble with temperatures getting too high. Even if you grow with HPS lights I think any mars hydro light is a MUST TRY. I like how heavy both lights are because I know it means they are built soild and strong 💪. Very good sign with the frost they are starting to get thanks to bith mars hydro lights. I can notice more frost under the fc4800 and I'm thinking it's from the UV DIODES they put on the fc4800 👍. 2 days ago they all smelt like my nuken, sweet marshmallows. But now I can smell the monkey dough and gorilla glue and skunk monkey coming through👍. I touched a bud on the gorilla and monkey fingers smelt like fruit loops👍 really pleasant smell. Lingered on my fingers for atleast 30 min. I'm glad mars hydro is under priced compared to some brands and for how popular they are. usually companies would charge more. Thanks mars you guys are awesome 🤘🥁🎸. I'm getting a new exhaust fan soon. An 8 inch that will work alot better than my 4 inch lol. Wayyy to small for a 8x8 Grow Tent. Dehumidifier is going almost non stop to try and get the humidity down. I love how both lights on 100% power only raise my temperature 2 or 3 degrees 👍. You can rest your hand on the lights and not much heat comes off them. Obviously there is some heat but for the brightness of the lights and only raising the temp that much is awesome 👌.  And if I wanted to I could remove the driver from the fc4800 and run it on the outside of my tent because the cord is so long but 2 or 3 degrees is barely nothing👍. The girls are starting to bulk up abit now and only 3 weeks of flowering, these lights are awesome 👌.  My last run of monkey dough and gorilla glue didn't start showing alot of crystals until week 4. These were only 2.5 weeks and I started noticing some frost. Next week I will be able to tell more about what these custom bred seeds will be like. I love how the smell is changing now. Didn't want all them to smell like nuken marshmallows lol. It's awesome that I can get right inside the tent to do any work i need👍. Even if I wanted an 4x8 tent. I'd rather this 8x8 because it's so easy to work with the plants and have so much room to move around and massive headroom when I'm in there chillin with the gals🤣🤘.

Auto Lemon is rocking right along. Bud sites getting bigger and fatter. I purchased some Fox Farms Organic Big Bloom and added it with the Recharge in this weeks feeding. Looking forward to the results. 👍

Just chopped last night. About 8oz wet weight. Did a good amount of wet trimming, will do a final manicure once it is dried. This grow has been an absolute blast - the girls were good to me and didn't give me much trouble. I am a man of variety, so I always try new things - so not sure if i will grow it again but if I had to, I wouldn't be mad at all :) Smoked some scissor hash it is sure was tasty! and strong - got me feeling reallllllly nice. Will update in a week or so when it is dried to report on the dry weight. And then some time after that I will report on the smoke once it cures :) UPDATE POST HAND DRY: The plants hung for 6 days, and have now moved into the jars. Dry weight of exactly 2oz. 51g buds, 5g trim. I had no idea that cannabis loses its smell a bit as it dries - so i got super worried at first, only to realize this is normal and the beautiful smell returned shortly. Will continue to update after curing for a taste/effect review. UPDATE ~ 1.5 Weeks into cure: Looking back it think I did too much dry trimming. It had been cold at that time, and I was paranoid about mold. It dried quite quickly, and I might have been out a day too long. I was aiming to get them in jars and have it sit at about 60-65% humidity - but when they went into the jars it never went higher than 54% and kind of settled down at 48%. But the buds aren't crispy by any means, so maybe my humidity meter was off. They do seem a little too dry though - and the buds are definitely quite airy. My grow light is pretty small, so I'm not expecting super dense buds. From what I've read, I'm worried they might have over-dried past the point of "curing"? Or maybe I'm reading too much into this, idk. This is all a learning process and I'm enjoying it regardless. It was my first grow so I definitely have room for improvement within my current setup. I couldn't wait to try it so I've been sampling throughout the curing process. The flavor and scent profiles are definitely changing, and for the better - but it doesn't have that same "dank" smell it had when she was a living plant. Not sure if that's normal, but probably just didn't have the best drying process. Obviously this early, I'm not expecting amazing taste and smell, so let's see how some more time does. I will say it gets me stoned, for sure haha. It's got a nice dark green, purple color too it with a decent amount of thichomes visible. Honestly, the smaller plant (#1) that I stunted early on has a better scent/taste already, versus #2 that looked so good. Not saying #2 is a bust at all either. It has this earthy, almost cheesy flavor profile. Interesting. Back to the effect - it worked to the point where I feel laser-focused writing this update haha. It definitely has a hybrid effect, with a nice euphoric uplift, while helping me relax and ease tension. I'll try to keep updating this as it cures!

1/21: I rotated the edge plants and foliar fed with big bloom a few times today. 1/22: I fed them about 3/4 gallon each after top-dressing their pots with a heaping tablespoon of happy frog cavern culture( bat and seabird guano). That will make some P and K available to them over the next 2 weeks as they begin to flower. Aside from that, I went with full strength veg nutes because I'm still seeing some yellowing and som cal-mag deficiencies. I also added some more liquid molasses. They're gonna need the energy as they start their stretch. I foliar fed a few times throughout the day with big bloom. 1/23: EXPLOSIVE GROWTH last night...love it...everybody is stretching...pretty sure the 14/10 photoperiod is working!! I foliar fed with big bloom a few times today. 1/24: Definitely sativa. Neither one liked the FIM job.. 1/25: I tied down the mains on both of them and watered with a half-gallon each containing bembe, cal-mag, signal, armor si, and humic acid. 1/26: Re-tied the mains again,,,strong branches! 1/27: That's it for week #5!
