I got a week and a half notice that I had to go on a work trip out of country for 10 days, so the clown show continued. I was definitely overwatering them. Thanks @shinsimilla, I saw the difference after waiting a few extra days. Also, I definitely should have started LST at least a week earlier than I did. Now for work issues: I found an old security camera that the cats had knocked over a million times and damaged. With a lot of tape, I got it working again and set up in the tent so I could see what’s going on while gone. Be warned, the photos are NOT good quality. I also looked up DIY self-watering systems. I needed it as simple as possible to reduce the risk of something breaking while I was thousands of miles away. I found one where it wicks water up a cotton or wool string. Here's the link: https://youtu.be/P0hn5cKZ0Z0 I cut up an old 10K shirt that was made of cotton. I had just broken down my balcony garden since it’s already getting cold here. I took two long planters, lined them with a construction garbage bag to be the reservoirs. Even though the floor of the grow tent is waterproof and I put plastic between the floor and outside of the grow tent, I didn’t want to risk any water getting out while I was away. I was nervous y’all. Basically, you wet the fabric then use a chopstick to run the it through the plant from bottom to top. It needs to be long enough to have a few inches sitting in the bottom of the reservoir. I filled each with 3L of water with the BioBizz nutrients mixed in and ph’d to 6.1. More info in week 5.

🌸 BlueBerry – Week 6 Flower Report Grower’s Journal | Zamnesia BlueBerry ⸻ 🌱 The Girls This Week Both BlueBerry ladies are now true queens, stretching big, stacking huge colas, and getting so heavy that yo-yos are holding them up. Without support, branches would fall under their own weight, which is a good sign of strong flower density but also a reminder of the importance of plant training. The frost continues to thicken, and the trichomes look spectacular up close, sparkling in photos and videos like tiny glass forests. ⸻ ⚠️ Trouble in Paradise – Bud Rot But with big flowers also come risks. This week, Bud Rot (Botrytis cinerea) showed up on BlueBerry #2. • Conditions: High humidity (65%+, sometimes higher) combined with dense flowers created the perfect environment for rot. • Detection: Early spotting saved the plant. We caught it in time before it spread too far, but it still left its mark. • Action Taken: • Carefully removed every infected area. • Isolated affected material to prevent spores spreading. • Improved airflow around the canopy by moving plants and adjusting fans. 👉 For anyone learning, here’s a great educational read by Zamnesia: Bud Rot Grower’s Guide. https://www.zamnesia.com/grow-weed/563-bud-rot-cannabis-grower-guide ⸻ 🌿 Bud Rot – What It Is & How to Prevent It Bud Rot is caused by the fungus Botrytis cinerea. It thrives in humid, poorly ventilated conditions, especially inside large dense colas where moisture can hide. How to prevent: • Keep humidity lower during flower (ideally 40–50%). • Maintain constant airflow across and through the canopy. • Defoliate strategically to open airflow inside dense plants. • Avoid watering late in the cycle to reduce night-time moisture. What to do if it appears: • Act quickly. Remove all affected buds immediately. • Sterilize scissors/tools between cuts to avoid spreading spores. • Keep monitoring daily — once it appears, it can spread fast. Bud Rot is every grower’s nightmare, but also one of the most important lessons in environmental balance. ⸻ 💡 Lessons Learned (and Moving Forward) This 8x8 setup is teaching us a lot. For the next run, I’ll be redesigning the airflow system entirely to prevent these issues. For now, the plants are still thriving, and catching the rot early means we can continue with this grow. Big flowers are a blessing, but they require serious air control. We’re already working on solutions, including an AC and new placement strategies, which I’ll cover in more detail on YouTube. ⸻ 📸 The Beauty Side Even with this challenge, the girls are stunning: • Massive colas held up by yo-yos. • Sparkling trichome close-ups showing the magic of Week 6. • Heavy branches bending under the weight of their own production. The resilience of BlueBerry genetics shows through, they continue to push strong, healthy growth despite the setback. ⸻ 🔮 Looking Ahead – Week 7 What to expect: • Further bulking and resin production. • Stronger terpene expression, the BlueBerry scent growing richer. • More vigilance against humidity and bud rot, especially as flowers keep swelling. What not to expect: • Major structural changes. From here, it’s all about ripening and finishing strong. ⸻ 💬 Final Thoughts Week 6 has been both a celebration and a reminder: heavy, beautiful flowers need perfect conditions to stay healthy. Bud rot may have appeared, but it was caught, managed, and turned into a learning moment for this run and for future ones. The BlueBerry ladies are still shining, still heavy, still legends in the making.

June 8th & June 16th Update @gbaGrow What’s good sensei? The girls are growing nice and healthy. Looks to me like the spider mite problem is no longer. Still haven’t used any nutrients because the soil is still going strong. Today I topped all of them and left anywhere from 3-5 node pairings on each plant. I poked some drainage holes in the bottom of each solo cup a couple of weeks ago and quite a few of them are already growing roots through the bottom 😬😬 The cancer blaster and the purp fem seeds you gave me are coming in nice and full. They look promising my dude. One of the “signature seeds” (your strain) has a crazy morphology to it.... 2 main kolas without any topping. I’ve only seen that once before and it ended up being a male but who knows with this one 🤞🤞 All in all, we’re in good shape so far over here Photos and pics on the way....

Strating the germination process for my latest grow. Im growing white Bhutanese by Mandala Seeds. ■ {{ White Bhutanese: 80% Sativa 20% Indica ~ 12 to 14% THC & CBD (Earthy, Fruity, Lemon, Mint, Nutty, Sour, Spicy / Herbal, Sweet)}} Really into cultivating a highly therapeutic strain, which begins with finding something close to what you want to achieve. Fingers crossed 🤞 September 23. In the rock wool she goes. September 30 Patricia is officially transplanted to her resevoir.

~~14/09 Couldnt help myself to try some LST even though it might not be benificial to this plant. Increased the fish mix to 1ml/L, got a spider mite invasion on going. Currently treating with potassic soap and neem oil. Beside that the plants looks healthy to me. ~~16/09 Some stylish rain cover for the rain to come (finally after almost 3 months!)

Hey Cannafam, Well its been a fairly good week for my gal, weve had a few days of light rain but nothing to harsh,not enough to bring the snails out and this is probably the first week that shes not been attacked by a pest of some kind. Most days have been hot and sunny and its still been fairly warm at night as well, thankfully the temp drop has been enough to start bringing out the purple colours further. They start in the middle of the plant and are slowly spreading out 😊💜 Shes also been thirsty and has two feeds this week with a watering every other day. Smell is ramping up now and the lovely forest fruits can be smelt when you brush a sugar leaf. Bud development is slow and steady and shes starting to frost up now as well 😊 Overall shes doing well and the good weather is set to continue which im pleased about! Thats all from me for now, take care my friends 💜💜💜

Day 21: From day 10 to 21 I couldn't take care of the plants because of private reasons, I asked my friend to take care of the plants and he didn't do a good job! He should had asked me or alerted me when he saw mayor problems, not just saying a little bit of light green or yellow. As you can see, we have alot of yellowing beneeth the plants, different sizes and even got some burnt leafs indicate that he didn't water on time. Did some run-off checks and saw many various values😓 Ph between 6.8-7.5 and EC between 1 to 2. The PH should had been 5.8-6 and EC at this stage 1.8+ since they need alot of nutrients because cocos soil doesn't have any. Because of this shit, they have been underfed, burnt, stress and more. Not ideal for autoflowers. Even the reservoir from humidifier was empty, indicating that it hasn't been filled for days!! Also he didn't sorted the plants out, there are always spots that get dryer faster or stay more wet. Get more light or less. Therefore it is wise to change spots of your plants all the time, I call it dancing. Your plants will grow more equally. If you look at the bigger plants, this should had been the size of all the plants sadly. They now look like they are in end of week 2 instead of week 3 and the bad plants end of week 1 😕 I did some defolation on some plants on the lower area. Roots start to show underneeth the pots, which is really good. I putted the bad plants in left under corner, Lets hope I can still nurse them. I still have 1-2 weeks to fix this before it goes into flowering, lets hope they will still grow double in size, otherwise this will be a lower rewarding grow.

Hi all , hope we are all well and safe?. Day 7: Lets start the update with the new configuration. Using the new sp3000 on tje recovering mft tank cant ne useful at all so i have now put the 2 L.O.S FFT girls directly under this and used the sp250 as an extra side lighting to them too. It still catches the NFT and FFT#8 with plenty of par but the main focus can now be put into creating big framed lower plants with more than enough light to assist. After the stretch period ends , i am going to defol and get them in their final position for bud stacking. This will open the canopy even wider for light to penetrate. FFT#8 is nice and green but still tiny even after a week of stretching. Her root damage and recovery have ruined any chance of really seeing the best from this tester bit as ssheje looks so happy , i will continue with her. FFT#9 Is a monster in comparison to #8 and with only 2 weeks and a bout of root rot between them is impossible to believe. Her limbs are solid under the canopy with a great structure to build buds on. She measures approx 2.5ft across her width now and has a lot of very healthy stacking growing tips. Each one is like a mini version of a plant itself and should produce some very nice buds stacks. She is giving out a weedy fruit smell now too and along with her hairy tips , looks close to her stretch ending. I saw the bract hairs and odd white pistil from around day 3 of flipping which show their quick flowering genetics so well. Seeing other FFT#9 grows gives me a great boost to what this strain can do. For a new grower it would be simple to grow and very responsive to care and training too. FFT#10 This lady is the only dark , broad leaved girl in thebhouse amd is growing with longer node spacing tjan the others . she want to keep going vertical and has really shown some growth during the stretch desoite her supercropping. She will benefit from the defol at day 21 and be opened up more to catch all her lower growth too. She looks and feels so healthy up close and hwr lower pot growth is solid for a foundation. I woukd like to see this strain grown natural , i bet it would be huge without being held down. Be well and safe growmies. Until next week. Peace and love

Bienvenido a la aventura compañero 🛸❄️✨💐 Una semana espectacular para nuestra Do-Si-Dos de @Zammi_official en combinación con la gama gloriosa de @Plagron La ayuda en este diario ha sido de la mano del grower y amigo @noNick123 . Recomendando siempre cosas positivas, gran teoría ✨ Espero que Zamnesia tome en cuenta su participación a pesar del inconveniente ocurrido con el frío, hermano 💪🏽 Subimos la temperatura del agua antes de preparar la dosis, 23 C⁰ con 450 PPM aprox, inicial por riego. Bajamos las dosis considerablemente y llegamos a un ppm de unos 800. Entiendo ahora que significaba cuando @noNick123 recomendó calentar el agua antes de la mezcla... El día jueves 11/1/24 comenzamos a regar solo con agua. Esta planta se ha vuelto una bestia creadora de resina, ahora la mantendremos en este estado y quizás necesite ser alimentada alguna vez más 🤔 tengo ganas de cortarla, pero la dejaremos a a que madure un poco 😌 Los tricomas están 70% lechosos 20% transparentes y 10% ámbar. La lámpara ahora está más alta para no dañar ninguna glándula ❄️👌 Por ahora esto es todo, estoy aprovechando todo esto para ir eligiendo la nueva tanda de semillas a cultivar 🤩 Quiero hacer una extracción con esta próxima cosecha, no guardar tanta materia vegetal en casa. Alguien conoce una manera casera sin mucha inversión?! Oil, dry, bubble hash... NO CHARAS 😁 Un abrazo fuerte para todos y muchos ánimos 💐 siempre hay tiempo para hacerlo mejor, para darle al siguiente paso pisando firme Saludos!

-Week 3 of flower. The plants are starting to look better since I corrected the ec and ph. The buds are swelling en the new growth is nice and green. Let's hope they have recovered by next week so they can get back to full focus on the buds.
