What's up Growmies!!! These babies will be getting the chop this weekend, which would put them in week 14 overall and week 9 in Flower. It has been a smooth grow, not a lot of issues other than the tips getting burned, which is normal being that I pushed them to the max as far as the nutrients I fed them. I made the mistake feeding White Widow #3 the same nutrients as the others even though it is 3 weeks behind and definitely overwhelmed her with nutrients hence the yellowing and brown leaves you see in the first part of the video. The trichromes are exactly where I want them right now, mostly cloudy with about 25 to 30% amber. I'm guessing they will be at about 50/50 come Friday or Saturday when I give them the chop. I flushed each one last night with 2 gallons of distilled water, I'm going to flush them once more today and then allow them to dry out. My Caramelicious plant has been begging for 14 weeks and has grown all the way past the lights, I am going to top her today and cut away 4 or 5 nodes. Once I have these ones chopped and out of the tent. All in all this has been a smooth grow and I can't wait to test the final product. Thanks for tuning in and like always, I wish you all good luck on your grows and may the plant goddesses grant you huge yeilds!!!

2/17: I spent a little time rearranging today. I bought some 32" x 14" plastic ventilated storage shelves and cut the legs down on two of them so I have some different-height platforms for the shorties in the garden. I should also be able to easily flush 6 plants in 5 gallon pots, or 9 plants in 3 gallon pots at a time now, that's a win!👈 2/18: I debated whether to feed or not, and settled on watering them with about 1/2 gallon each. including bembe, cal-mag, signal, humic acid, and a little beastie bloomz. The new dehumidifier is pulling about a gallon and a half per day from the air, so I should be able to feed them in a coupe of days. I've reached the ceiling again with my lights. The Soooperrunt has caught up to the tallest plant in the garden. She's very narrow compared to the rest, but she'll produce 100% more than I ever imagined, so that's a win! These three plants remain very dark green in color compared to all the other varieties. 2/19: Rainy day outside, so I'm pulling in 99% humidity, plus the pots are still petty saturated, but the new dehumidifier is keeping up. RH is holding at about 45% today.👍 2/20: Day 31 of flower...a semi-solution occurred to me that allowed me to raise the lights another 3-4 inches! Now I'm truly maxxed out... 2 of them have been slow to flower did a 300% stretch, but the 3rd is budding up nicely and only did a 200% stretch. Soooperrunt has stretched 30" from when I started flowering her...yikes! I really needed everybody to finish in the same week so I could get my Spring autos going...😶 I'm still hoping that they will get their groove-on and finish by the EHD(3/11), but it's not looking possible at this point... They're likely to be good producers, so I'm not bitching too loudly.. I took photos and videos of all the plants today since I had to empty the closet and it wasn't a feeding day. 2/21: I fed them today with about 3/4 gallon each including beastie bloomz, tiger bloom, big bloom, signal, bembe, and cal-mag...no grow big this time. 2/22: The darkest green plants in the garden. Wonderful structure, stacking up really well. Their top leaves really reach for the sun. My current favorites.👍 2/23: I ordered some Terpinator because I'm not so sure about Signal's efficacy at this point....I'm usually dealing with odors more by now..😕 That's it for week 9-

🌸 Week 4 Flower Report: Growth, Challenges & Big Changes! 🌸 Hey, Grow Diaries Fam! ✨ We’re here at Week 4 of Flower, and what a week it’s been—packed with challenges, adjustments, and exciting progress! Before diving into the details, let’s start with a note on my flowering timeline. While this is Week 4, I don’t start counting flower days the moment I flip to 12/12. Instead, I wait for the plants to show true signs of bloom. It’s a small but significant distinction that keeps things accurate and aligned with the plants’ development. 🌱 Defoliation: Timing is Everything! Defoliation is a critical part of the flowering stage, and I typically wait until Day 21. However, this week, I tackled it earlier on Day 17 because: 1️⃣ The room was simply too full. 2️⃣ And most importantly—the Papaya Zoap had other plans! She’s a fighter—determined, defiant, and constantly reaching for the moon. Despite intense training like super cropping, she’s still pushing upward, nearly outpacing the LED lights. Challenges like this remind us of a simple truth: gardening mirrors life. It’s about resilience, adaptation, and unwavering determination. 💪 This week, I added a second SCROG layer. While this net will support the flowering colas, it’s also there to strategically manage the Papaya Zoap. Why? Because experience has taught me that if she grows out of the LED’s range, she won’t finish properly—and that could disrupt the balance for every other plant in the tent. It’s all about teamwork, even in the garden. 🌟 Defoliation was intense, removing nearly all the leaves with stems to clear space and boost airflow. The tent now looks dramatically different! For the full before-and-after transformation, be sure to check out my YouTube channel—trust me, you’ll want to see this process up close! 🎥✨ Switching to Aptus Holland Minerals A major milestone this week: I’ve transitioned entirely to Aptus Holland Minerals. 🌊 From now on, it’s just minerals—no more organic inputs. This marks the start of a new chapter, and I’m incredibly curious to see how the plants react to these changes. Here’s the current nutrient mix: • System Clean: 0.5 ml/L • Regulator: 0.15 ml/L • RO Water Conditioner: 0.8 ml/L • All-in-One Liquid: 2.1 ml/L I’m keeping the pH at 6.1 and TDS at 556 ppm, and so far, the plants are thriving. This week also included a thorough system clean, ensuring everything runs smoothly as we enter the final flowering stages. 🌿 Bud Development: Pure Magic! The bud formation across all the genetics is nothing short of incredible. Every plant is thriving, and the canopy is lush, vibrant, and full of potential. I’ve raised the PPFD to 750 for this stage, with temps steady at 25°C and RH at 63%—keeping the VPD dialed in at 1.11. The TrolMaster ecosystem, paired with the AutoPots, makes managing these precise conditions seamless. With more time to focus on the plants, I can give them the daily care they deserve. 💚 Shoutouts & Gratitude A huge thank you to my sponsors and supporters: TrolMaster, Aptus Holland, Pro-Mix, Cannakan, and the amazing seed banks. Your incredible products and technology make this journey possible. 🌟 To the Grow Diaries community and all my followers—thank you for your energy, love, and even the challenges from the haters.

Unlike traditional LED systems that project light in a single direction, the ICL-300’s 300-degree design ensures even light distribution beneath the canopy. 🌟 This unique feature means that no part of your plant is left in shadow, creating a balanced environment for lower buds to thrive. Key Tech Specs & Benefits: • 300-Degree Light Distribution: This design fills the under-canopy space with optimal light, enhancing photosynthesis where it often gets neglected. 🌱 • Full Spectrum Output: Tailored to meet the specific needs of plants at every stage, ensuring quality growth from base to apex. • Energy Efficiency: Advanced LED technology delivers maximum output with minimal energy usage, keeping costs down and sustainability up. 💡 • Durability & Heat Management: Built with high-quality materials, the ICL-300 stays cool and reliable, even in intense growing environments. Why It Matters: Under-canopy lighting is a game-changer for growers aiming to maximize yield and quality. Typically, lower buds receive less light, resulting in larfy or underdeveloped flowers. The ICL-300 changes that dynamic entirely by turning shadows into opportunity. 🌟 With light evenly dispersed across the entire plant, you’re not just growing; you’re sculpting a masterpiece. For me, the ICL-300 is more than a tool—it’s a partner in innovation. It ensures that every plant in my grow room has equal opportunity to shine, from the top colas to the smallest buds at the base. When paired with a carefully managed ecosystem, like the one powered by TrolMaster, the potential for consistent, top-quality harvests reaches new heights. This isn’t just about adding light—it’s about adding value, efficiency, and balance to the grow process. I’m beyond excited to see how the ICL-300 transforms the game in my tent, and I can’t wait to share the results with you all! 💚

Auto northern lights is shining bright, such beautiful colours she has! bright green with bright white hedgehogs.. man she is one of the most beautiful indicas one can grow, in my opinion😇👌 I could not update her last week (we all know why.. sigh) So i decided to skip a week..😳 and take a rest, i needed that too so i could try to update my own health 😎 but i can tell you, she has been growing so well! despite of all the rain and S**t (and glitches on GD ..😒) shes still the light of my garden! happy growing for all ✊

Harvest: Everything dried up to 347 grams + 96 grams of super high quality trim. Overall I am not too pleased with the smoke of the product. Although the bud size, bag appeal, smell and taste are pretty much all there, the shitty burn is a deal breaker for me and the majority of this weed is quite frankly useless. Another downside is while smoking I’ve found 4 seeds in an ounce from almost every strain. Light leaks? At least I learned a ton, including how to get super good burn for my next crop. I’m hoping that curing for a month or so will improve the burn but I wouldn’t really count on it. I have seen weed dried for 4 days with no cure and no flush smoke clean and not go out once. I have been told that the key to white ashes/clean burn is proper mineral content in the soil and there is tons of scientific studies on cigar ash going back 100 years. Plants grown in a medium with high levels of decomposing organic matter, phosphorus, magnesium, chlorine and heavy metal ratio tend to produce black/grey ash. Whereas plants grown in a medium with a higher ratio of trace minerals like calcium carbonate and potassium in the form of wood ash, rock dusts, oyster shell flour and lower levels of decomposing organic matter will produce a dense, uniform white ash that rarely goes out. But this is still all theory until I test it to confirm for myself a few times. My last few outdoor harvests did not improve with curing at all so I’m hoping this will be the missing link. Plain peat moss and coco clearly lack essential minerals that help burn. If said theory is correct I should find a synthetic nutrient line with more trace minerals. Makes me wonder if growing if rockwool/basalt rock could improve burn in a hydro setup. I think I did a fairly decent job for my first grow. I went wrong in a million different places but I still stuck it out and got some decent herb. Things went wrong early when I got black spot mold, nitrogen/magnesium deficiencies and powdery mildew. I corrected most of it but things didn’t get really bad until mid veg when I intentionally skipped a few feedings and defoliated quite heavily stunting the plants. I also didn’t even top or start LST until the 6-9th node which was really stupid and hurt my yield. My temperatures were all over the place from the learning curve. I was severely overwatering without realizing it. 100% peat moss is a shitty medium. I also fed way too late in flower (not what caused shitty burn). I also used synthetic nutrients in soil.

Hey everyone at week 4 know and wow have these girls grown early this week I applied some LST and all took really well to say it was my first time trying this

Hello everyone week 1 has passed for this Purple Lemonade auto from Fast Buds 😎 this plant is doing very well growing at fast pace and with a beautiful green colour on the leaves. Spider Farmer SE-7000 50% wish you all happy growing!

Update day #$@.: With the staggered and held up germing issues , the weeks are already out of sync... The Amnesia has been doing brilliantly and had an up pot too her final pot . I have also fimmed her and will be quadlining her 3rd and 4th nodes. The 5th fimmed node is being tied down until the other limbs have got a good start. I am hoping I have caught the 5th node and the right amount of the 6th/7th too!. Always a gamble but could lead to a very productive end . The Red hot cookies is doing OK in her rockwool cube and showing roots underneath now so along with the Afgani delicious, who is also showing roots, I will be putting them into the Nft tank tomorrow to get them catching up with their big cousin amnesia. The speed that nft can muster should allow them to catch up quite well. I am very impressed with the amnesia already , she looks very healthy at this point. Be safe growmies. Peace and blessings.

Last week was the last feed week we will be flushing the plants for the last two weeks of this grow flushing with kleens by cyco and a touch of molasses to finish of this grow of the year harvest in two weeks

02/06/2025, start of week 3, decided to do a bit of LST (tied down main stem) let's see how she responds. Reduced humidity by around 8% to increase leaf VPD to between 0.7 and 1.0 kpa, and lowered the light a little more, increasing to around 300 PPFD for this week. Hoping to see a bit of a rush of growth once she recovers from the LST as I expect flowering will start in the next 2 weeks and need her to fill out a.s.a.p Update 04/06/2025, Looks like I should have probably waited for the next node to stretch a little and then tied her down as I could have brought the top full level with the the other shoots and perhaps encourage better branching as this particular girl doesn't seem to be very branchy, this may change though, will probably have to bend her again but time it better so I can actually tie round the very top instead of one node down and hopefully then encourage some real branching and filling out. Another lesson learned for this rookie. Update: 06/06/2025, fed at 1.2 ec ph 6.2. Update 08/08/2025, end of week, should have waited at least a couple more days to water, she looks over watered, not terrible though and looking better this morning than yesterday morning, will make sure she is properly dry next time.

Flowering well, she as stretched out a bit, steady progress. Currently looks like lots of bud sites but hard to tell how much it will fill out.

Solid week with good growth. Thinking about doing some lst later this week.

The germination process was successful. Within 36 hours the root sprouted from the seed shell.

12/3/23 - Day 27 - Hello All! Today I was able to catch the water change as it all happened. I have a video that I uploaded above. Here we are going into week 5. Shes growing fast and her branches are close together. Not much going on other than letting this LEAF box do its thing. I'll keep it updated with pictures as we go along. I still have leftover nutrients from the last grow. The A-nute is getting close to being gone. So I replaced it with the A-Nutes that I had purchased to start this grow. Replacing them is super easy. Another water change day in the books! 12/5/23 - Day 29 - I did some cleaning up on the branches. I removed a lot of the fan leaves. I do plan on cleaning it up a little more but I wanted to give her a moment to recover. However, I am starting to think that it does not matter. So far with both of the grows I have done in this LEAF box. When I trim the plant and I think it's going to cause an slow down, I'm wrong. So far I have yet to see a bad result from trimming her. It's almost like the plant likes it better immediately and starts to stretch out and get bigger. 12/7/23 - Day 31 - I noticed there are pistles already forming. I spoke with someone about how quickly that was and they said that I should wait to flip them to flower. Autos are kind of known to start flower when they are stressed. I forsure stressed her out when I just put a huge trim on her. Ill give it another few days to see if the pistles continues to pop up or slow down.

Empeze a germinar el dia 20/09/2022 hasta 25/09/2022 22 semillas de gorilla glue 4 Ayude a retirar la cascara para acelerar el proceso de germinacion ya que estoy probando este metodo normalmente las planto con todo, pero esta vez voy a probar retirandolo manualmente.

Day 29: Low VPD due to shitty weather....... about 0.8 kPa at 23C. Girls happy - nothin' to bend or weave today. Still dark green - no signs of overfeeding in new foliage. Drain (average): pH 5.9; EC 2.7 Roots keep pentrating the pots. 👍 Day 30: Girls happy - nothin' to bend or weave today. Still dark green - no signs of overfeeding in new foliage. Drain (average): pH 5.8; EC 2.7 Roots keep pentrating the pots. 👍 Day 31: Girls happy - nothin' to bend or weave today. Still dark green - no signs of overfeeding in new foliage. Drain (average): pH 5.9; EC 2.7 Roots keep pentrating the pots. 👍 Day 32: Did a little defoliation - just cut a few odd lookin' fanleafs and some smaller foliage at the bottom of the stem. 65g total. Further i keep opening the canopy by moving some shoots to the next square of the net Still watering daily. Plant 3 is way thirstier and bigger than the others. Plant 2 spills out the largest amounts of drain...... but she's not far behind them other girls. Had to crank up the vent to get humidity out..... i'll keep defoliating carefully - that'll help it ;-) Day 33 & 34: Now they really wanna get tall...... since they so bushy, it's a bit tricky to feed them to the 'right' next square in the net....... LST-wise i have to admit, it would have been better to 'open' the canopy by binding the shoots down, instead of just flatten it out, by supercropping. Though it produces a lot of growth, it's kind of a chaos - hard to organize and almost impossible to open up for more light. Huge fanleafs pushing out everywhere. Plenty of foliage in the lower canopy - it's a mess somehow😶 Numbers in the drain are fine now (about 6.5; 1.2) so i'll start feeding nutrients again. Day 35: Fed nutrients - PH 6.4; EC 1.1 Drain (avg.): pH 6.3; EC 1.8 i'm taking out some leafs of different sizes - just a few at a day...... so there will be a bit more light and air over time...... Plans for week 6: - Organize canopy/scrog - carefully take leafs out - keep checking for nutrient levels

platinum yeti 3 finally stopped stretch at 34 inches and its closest to bulb at 18 inches from closest top. rest are about 20-22 inches from the bulb

Smells nice
