6/11/22 Today starts week 9, and the 3rd week of flower. I may have a problem in my grow tent! Stella’s tent mate might be a male, or a hermie. I don’t know, because I’ve never grown one or seen one except for pictures. I was planning on going out of town for the Fourth of July for a few days, but I was wondering how my plants would fare. I skipped 1 day between feedings and she looked absolutely terrible! She was so dry, and all her leaves were limp. She truly looked scary. I’m only uploading a couple pics of her today. I’ll add more tomorrow to see how she bounced back. Anyway, the point of all this is that I told my wife that I was going to skip a day and see how they looked. After seeing the results, my wife was not happy. Our trip may get canceled because I’m a responsible grower. 🤷‍♂️ Today I was going to give her an entire gallon, but she only took about 14 of 16 cups before the runoff was more than sufficient. I felt it was a waste to give her more since it would just run out. I’m still using the mid-bloom nutrients. So today she received 14 cups or 0.875 gallon of the following: CALiMAGic - 2 ml FloraMicro - 4.7 ml FloraGro - 3.8 ml FloraBloom - 8.5 ml Floralicious Plus - 2 ml Liquid KoolBloom - 2 ml The initial pH was 5.8. I added 3 ml of pH UP which adjusted the pH to 6.3. I didn’t even bother with my TDS meter today. I didn’t need any added frustration. Runoff was sufficient, and the pH was 6.3. Honestly, it seems like the first bit of solution just ran through her. The tent was warm at 86.9F, but humidity was low at 36%. I’m really worried about her tent mate being a male or hermie and spreading that to her and the other plant (Sir Jack - auto) that just joined them in the flowering tent. Hopefully I’ll know for sure by tomorrow. Happy growing everyone! 6/12/22 I wanted to add some more photos to show how she bounced back after feeding. The temperature in the tent was a few degrees cooler today because it’s starting to rain here. The humidity went up to 54% from 36% over night just because she was fed. Her largest tent mate (Rocket Fuel) turned out to be a male and was removed and placed outside last night. He’s enjoying the rain right now. I plan to dispose of that later. Stella has room to spread out for a little bit, but I’ll be giving her more company soon. My other diary, “Stella’s Cuatro” are her daughters, and they will be joining her soon. Happy growing everyone! 6/13/22 Today is feeding time once again in The_Good_Twin grow room. I’m going to try and be brief today. Stella took a whole gallon today, and had a wonderful amount of runoff so I can be assured that she has been thoroughly fed. I kept with the same nutrient levels as on the 11th. Look above to see. The initial pH was 5.9. I added 2 ml of pH UP which adjusted the pH to 6.2. Her runoff pH was 5.9. Temperature was 88F, and humidity was 51%. She has reached 45.5 inches tall and is once again almost touching the light. In fact, the branches that I’ve previously bent using HST, are now righted and almost back to the lights. Oh well. I’ll have to think of another way to raise the light or not worry about it. 🤷‍♂️ Happy growing everyone. 6/14/22 Stella is a thirsty girl! She took another gallon of water today mixed with more of the mid-bloom nutrients. I’ve been trying to keep up with her needs so that she makes some super fat and crusty nugs for me at the end of her journey. All of the branches that I performed HST on have grown longer, and turned up, and once again are at the top by the light. I feel like I’m going to have to do it again, but lower down the branch. She’s not going to like it, but kissing the light isn’t going to turn out well! Enough blabbering on… She received: CALiMAGic - 2 ml FloraMicro - 4.7 ml FloraGro - 3.8 ml FloraBloom - 8.5 ml Floralicious Plus - 2 ml Liquid KoolBloom - 2 ml The initial pH was 5.8. I added 3 ml of pH UP and adjusted it to 6.3. I’m still not using my TDS meter. There’s a small sense of freedom there. Runoff was about 20%. Her pH was 5.8. The tent temperature was 83F, and humidity was 61%. She’s HUGE, but she’s going to have to make some room, because there’s going to be a large family reunion this weekend. Stella’s Cuatro is going to be moving in. It’s going to be crowded. Happy growing everyone! 6/15/22 I fed Stella another gallon of water today mixed with the mid-bloom nutrients as the day before. Same nutrient levels as above. I calibrated my pH meter today to make sure it’s measurements are correct. The initial pH was 6.3, and didn’t not need adjusting. Runoff pH was 6.1. I’m not even bothering with my TDS meter anymore. Eventually I will, but I’m not in the mood for the frustration that it gives me. The tent temperature was 84.4F, and humidity was 47%. Her bent branches, and one or two additional ones are getting into the light again, so they were taped and bent over again. So, more HST completed to try and keep her at a reasonable height. 🤷‍♂️ I don’t know how I’m going to fit 4 more of her into the tent, but I’ll have to figure a way. Happy growing everyone! 6/16/22 Another day, and another feeding for Stella. The branches that were bent yesterday, as well as the ones that were bent for a 2nd time have all survived (so far), and their ends have started a slow curve upward again. I mixed another gallon of water with the same nutrient levels as the other day. Look above to see what she received. The pH going in was 6.2. The runoff pH was 6.0. The tent temperature was 84.4F, and humidity was 63%. I know all of you are tired of reading it, but she’s a huge plant! I’m hoping for a nice haul of top notch bud when she’s done. However, right now I’m starting to feel a little burnt out from caring for so many plants. Don’t we all wish we had such problems! Happy growing everyone!

|»» LOG DISCLAIMER: Not intended as a grow guide. Grow log entries are usually posted 3 weeks later and are for my learning reference. ««| Introduction - Week 13 Summary - Ensign's log, stardate 17529.7, Ooo yea! Summer is definitely here! Been a hot and humid week! But wow growth has been thriving and vibing in the garden! Feels like the tropics in the lung room, but the higher humidity seems to be perfect for vegging plants! By the end of the week, the canopy is almost full, so decided to flip to flower in 7 days! To prep for flower, slightly increased the VPD levels which are also helping to lower the humidity down a bit. Defoliated both ladies and been tucking and training the top growth. To preserve these genetics, started the cloning process and took cuttings. By the end of the week, the cuttings were transplanted into Coco Coins for rooting! Topped and defoliated all mother plants in the veg tent which lowered the canopy by a good 5-6 inches. But by the end of the week, the canopy is stretching upwards again and growth is looking beautiful! For this grow cycle, instead of a top dress, been researching about fungal dominant compost teas and plan to stew and brew up my first batch soon which will probably be in a week or so. Anyways, one more week until the big flip to flower! Let’s go! Onwards to next week Ensign!

Hello. Sweet Seeds sent a privet message a few months ago and said if you want seeds to email and they sent seeds😃. The strains I got were Gorilla Girl 19 to 25% THC - Black Jack 16 to 21% THC and a Cup Winner and Sweet Zenzation. They sent 4 seeds of each. I think that's because we can legally grow 4 plants pre household in Canada. Sweet Zenzation Grape Ape x Zkittlez Indica Dom Height- Med Yield- High 9-10 Weeks THC - 16 to 23% CBD - .2 Effect - Narcotic, relaxing, Stimulating, Talkative Flavor - Candy, Fruity, Sweet It's both relaxing and stress reliving. Yet it also stimulates the imagination and conversation The flowers have a high terpene content. Exquisite aroma and sweet taste. Hints of fruit flavored candies, with hardwood undertones, Hints of lemons, cypress, aromatic peppers I've got new lights that I'm not used to. I hit my head 3 times on the sides of the lights. Man they leave a sore spot. These aren't lite lights. The grow tents are made from cheap material but will do the job. I hope to get a keeper. Chuck.

Strawberry 🥧 I feel like her milky trichomes were starting to turn a little amber on some of the more mature buds so I chopped her down.Indica dominant strain so I wanted to let her go as long as possible.Smells great I’ll update a smoke report after she dries and cures.I think I’m going to use the majority of this one for some Rick Simpson oil and see how she turns out :)

Sadly, Amnesia was a hermaphrodite. She was immediately removed from the tent.

This was a fun first week. All 12 plants showed good growth. I had to support to three of the plants to ensure they didn't bend over. It was nothing serious, but I thought it was a prudent move. I'm not seeing any deformed leaves. All 12 are showing a nice uniform growth. Some are further along than others, but I attribute that to different germination dates; some are just a day or two older than their siblings. I'm being careful not to overwater them. When I did water them, I added a little Bloom Roots and Dyna Gro KLN. That should promote good root development. It was fun watching these plants griw strong during their first week of life! I didn't have any problems, and I can't wait to see how they progress.

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. I put some pictures on the construction here in week one. 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 theme 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 8 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 my moisture dome 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 Blue cheese Auto from Royal queen seeds will turn out. Blue Cheese automatic cannabis seeds are a cross of Blueberry Automatic and Cheese Automatic that has been perfected over five years of breeding and careful selection. The result is a feminized, autoflowering strain with superior yield, flavor, and effects to either of its distinguished parent strains. THC: 16% CBD: Low Yield Indoor : 325 - 375 gr/m2 Yield Outdoor: 60 - 110 gr/plant Height Indoor: 40 - 70 cm Height Outdoor: 60 - 110 cm Flowering: 7 - 8 weeks Harvest month: 9-10 weeks after planting Genetic Background: Blueberry x Cheese x Ruderalis Type: Sa 35% In 40% Ru 25% Effect: Cerebral and uplifting Climate: Mild .............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. 2017-09-11. Kl 12.00. Week 4 starts. I have cleaned the whole room for the new week and gave the girls water and nutes. Added videos and pics. Girl nr 1 is 27 cm high and girl nr 2 is 50 cm high and nr 3 is 15 cm high. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-12. Kl 10.00. New pics and video. Nr 2 has grown 5 cm in 23 h, its incredible. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-13. Kl 22.00. Everything is great in the garden right now. Updated with new video. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-15. KL 10.00. New pics and videos. Girl Nr 1 is 33 cm high, Nr2 is 70 cm and girl Nr is 22 cm. Nr 2 has grown 20 cm the last 3 days. Look at the stem of girl Nr 2 😍 The girls are starting to smell a lot now. Its a intense smell in the grow room. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-16. Kl 10.00. The girls grow like crazy, i have to defoliate about 20 leafs a day. Nr 2 is 76 cm tall now, i wonder when she slows down?. Added 2 liters of water and nutes this morning and 2 new videos. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2017-09-17. Made a time laps of the girls first 28 days.

Day 17 and she is growing nicely, but hope the side branching will pick up a bit for training. Keep freaking out thinking I have mites again but I don’t see them on my leaves. Plus I think I have grasshoppers nibbling on all my gals leaves. As of Saturday Fozzy Bear (we wanted it Fozzie but official paper work says otherwise) joined the family and his new big brother Buddy. He has already grown a few inches since we got him but god is he ever cute, and god bless Buddy for taking his playful shit since

Disclaimer: Crazy Trichomes take a look! Slurricane - Micro Worlds - 10x We are in our Purple Time, we went crazy for the beauty of the purple plants seen in Micro and so we look for colored plants and we are really lucky because they are branded Zamnesia. This time it is the turn of the newly released Slurricane, it is breathtakingly beautiful at first glance, look at the colors, look at how much resin and what a Pure Californian appearance it seems like something from Compound Genetics but it is Zamnesia guys. Our breeders are great and have reached unimaginable levels. **Remember that for all the varieties we have at least two plants, one left to grow straight and one worked with the techniques (go back in the week to see). today we talk about the harvest of the dark phenotype, which is also the most beautiful and picturesque to show in the hole of both colas and wonderful macros. Technique used // In this case we only practiced repeated Topping until we got to 16 tops, the plant is not very big, it grew in winter but it has a more than exceptional flower quality. Better with the techniques or normal? This time we have two very different phenotypes, a plant with medium internodal distance this time I prefer this plant because it is purple but the other seems to be producing something more, let's wait for it to finish and I'll let you know, for sure the beauty of this purple will be unsurpassed. Flower quality // From one to 10 stars 15. The plant has resinated in a crazy way, extreme and exceptionally abundant, it seems to see the best Californian flowers for real I'm not joking. They are fighting flowers, they will probably go to some contest so we washed the buds if you don't know how to do it there is an excellent article Zamnesia. Check the article in your language // https://www.zamnesia.io/it/guida-growing-cannabis/333-lavaggio-delle-ceme Fertilizers// I am very happy with how I managed to flush the plant that at a certain point before going to flush was fed for a few days only with additives and then went to flush and we are very very well discolored, predicting a very tasty flower, grown organic and flushed successfully, the flavor and taste will be epic. Look at how yellow the sun leaf is, the plants must be like this in the end otherwise you smoke / vaporize / ingest fertilizers that are then more or less heavy metals often, CLEAN YOUR WEED! For the reasons mentioned above and for a great taste I prefer Organic, All the fertilizers and additives of Plagron in the green / 100% organic version have fully satisfied me. Choose your soil based on your style and calculate the sheet on the website www.plagron.com - Bro if you are a stubborn type "I don't put anything in it" use additives listen every now and then .... and then come and tell me. Fertilizers instead can be found in convenient all-inclusive packages on the Zamnesia website. This variety is truly exceptionally Cali usually plants hybridized by Europeans do not look so Cali, not this one. ---- https://www.zamnesia.com/11177-zamnesia-seeds-slurricane.html Zamnesia Description // Slurricane is a first-choice US variety, created by In House Genetics, and now available to all growers thanks to the hybridization processes implemented by Zamnesia. Born from the fusion of Purple Punch and Do-Si-Dos, Slurricane contains 60% indica genes and is extraordinarily vigorous. Whether indoors, outdoors or in a greenhouse, this variety is able to produce large quantities of dense and aromatic buds. Add Slurricane to your assortment and enjoy growing one of the most beloved hybrids in the United States. Slurricane seeds quickly produce very robust specimens with an extraordinarily solid structure. The plants in the vegetative phase develop a massive stem, with large fan leaves and small internodal spacing. Thanks to their resistance and thick canopy, they are ideal for training techniques. Opening a jar full of Slurricane buds will make your mouth water: this strain produces dense, fragrant and resinous buds that will charm even the most demanding cannabis fans! After curing, the flowers retain a marbled texture, with sparkling trichomes coating the inside and outside of them. The aromas are sweet and spicy, with clear berry undertones. With 28% THC, Slurricane produces a vigorous effect. By consuming it in the evening hours, you will notice a pleasant sense of numbness on a physical level and enveloping vibrations, useful for aiding sleep. Music and Frequencies // For about 4/6 hours a day my plants listen to 432Hz frequencies made especially for their well-being and sometimes a bit of black music to give them those vibrations that only music can give. www.radionula.com All the best that mother nature has to offer is at ---- www.zamnesia.com

On day 1 things are going well. The buds are getting larger by the day and I'm starting to smell the terps. This is an interesting one, I can't figure it out just yet but there seems to be grapefruit in the background at least. I also did my last defoliation to bring in more light to the canopy. On day 3 the girls are doing well. My PH pen broke so I'm back to indicator drops until amazon hooks me up with a new probe. On day 4 the plants are doing well. I applied my final BTI treatment. The fungus gnat population is way down and almost completely eradicated. The girls are putting on more trichs everyday and the smell is increasing :) On day 5 I see no more fungus gnats :) I should receive my PH pen tomorrow and will finally be able to adjust my reservoirs pH with more precision. On day 6 the plants are doing well. On day 7 my new PH pen was ready for use. I discovered my reservoir got down to 5.5 PH yikes! I used PH up to get the PH to 6.1. I then changed out my reservoir with new nutrients. I PH'ed to 6.1

Una settimana colma di cambiamenti, é incredibile come le piante senza nessun tipo di training si adattino perfettamente tra di loro allo spazio circostante, quanti sensori possiedono le piante? Come comunicano tra di loro? mi ha sempre affascinato...

Little plant. Day 57. Cold and clowdy week. No nutes, just water. Curling leaf tips and dark green leaves. Too many nutes last week
