Hola y bienvenidos al diario de AKU. He cumplido ocho semanas de vida, a pesar del bruto de mi jefe y su corte apical, he crecido 6 cm y cada día soy más fuerte... I loved!! 😊 06/02/21 Hoy hace seis días de la agresión humana que sufrí en mi ápice principal, aun estoy cabreada, aunque parece que ahora voy a tener dos ápices principales y mis ramas y tallo se están haciendo más fuertes. He disfrutado de unos días tranquilos en mi armario y ventana disfrutando de la compañía de mi prima Sweet Amnesia Haze y las otras dos plántulas, hay muy buena temperatura. A mi prima la han trasplantado a principios de semana, está muy contenta, ella tiene ahora una maceta cuadrada de bonito color, pero me gusta más la mía!! 😁 Todavía no consumo mucha agua porque soy pequeña, pero cada día más, mis hojas se están haciendo muy grandes para captar mucha energía lumínica, mi jefe dice, que si sigo así seré una reina!!... I loved!!😍 Esta semana me han regado con agua cargada de oxígeno y llena de mis amigos lo microorganismos con un poco de melaza para que estos tengan energía y trabajen mucho. Con este tipo de riegos siento unas cosquillas fantásticas en mis raíces!! 😵 12/02/21 Hoy he amanecido sabiendo que ha sido mi último día de crecimiento vegetativo, me van a cambiar de armario, con luces más veraniegas, desde que supe esta noticia he estado algo triste por dejar a mi prima Sweet Amnesia Haze, a Psicodelicia y sus manías y la elegante Jack 47, hemos pasado buenos ratos juntas, hablando de nuestros antepasados y orígenes, al final todas somos parientes más o menos lejanos. Esta tarde mis amigas me han preparado una fiesta de despedida!!... mis emociones se han descontrolado!! 😍 Han traído un espectáculo flamenco sólo para mi, lo hemos pasado de cine!!, he bailado, he cantado y bebido, pues mi jefe me ha preparado un riego muy especial, dulce como a mi me gusta y con mucho microorganismos!! Me han regalado un pañuelo muy bonito, despues del show me he hecho unas fotos con las artistas, son gitanos por lo que dicen y como mis antepasados Kush, sus orígenes también están por Asia. Mi prima me ha regalado una foto dedicada de su familia adoptiva, una clan de larga tradición en cultivos de marihuana y otra con una cita de una cantante... las echaré de menos, espero que más adelante coincidamos en algún otro armario. Besos!! Todos se han esforzado en que me lo pasara bien, hasta mi jefe... bueno, le voy a perdonar por el maltrato vegetal de la semana pasada, porque tenía razón cuando me dijo... lo que no te mata, te hará más fuerte!! Ahora me he dado una ducha y me voy a nuevo armario, satisfecha y feliz, pero cansada de tantas emociones... buenas noches y hasta la próxima semana. Besos, abrazos, saludos y salud a todas las plantas y a sus cultivadores!! 😘 ================================================= • CONOCE MIS TÉCNICAS DE CULTIVO Y FERTILIZANTES ORGÁNICOS AVANZADOS....

All done with the growing, now time for the long arduous harvest 😸🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️✨. Started the harvest on day 63 of flower, I’ve not just checked their trichomes with a loop or anything, but I’m happy with how they look. The smell is very intense. Slightly worrying in all honesty 👀 filter is really struggling, contemplating getting out my spare extractor fan&filter just while it all drys. Maybe two filters will scrub the smell completely. It’s a lovely smell, Sour Tangy Sherb, but now an extremely heavy gassy wall of smell has permeated everything. Pretty much all the buds have turned purple, just a few of the lowers are a pale green, but that’s to be expected. I’m in the process of cutting them all up into individual branches, giving them a quick wet trim, then hanging them on hangers. I’m aiming for around 10 days drying, then a final trim and into jars for curing. This was the final run of the MotorOG, it’s been a fun strain to run 😸 another decent one from LIT Farms. I’d like to thank everyone who’s taken the time to have a look, comment or like this diary, I hope it’s been helpful in some way. PersonalSmok3s 😸🌱💚

In week 10 I have some plants, which have grown taller than the rest (canopy is appr. 80 cm high now). In order to not have to raise my lamp, I rather correct their height by 'supercropping' them. Supercropping is a technique developed by SOMA from SOMA_seeds and works VERY WELL. Instead of topping your plants (=cutting off the main stem) it is better to take the main stem between your fingers (appr. 15-20 cm form the top) and brake the fibers inside and then bend it downwords. This way the stem will stay intact and heal itself and you dont loose the main buds growing on it later. In the video above I show and explain how I supercrop a plant. The plants are now getting more and more into flowering and therefore I switch the dimmer on my SANlight EVO4-120 plants to 100% now (see in video above). The BIO NOVA nutrients are increased as well a little bit, so the plants can build big buds.

🌱 White Widow – Week 3 | Structure, Strength & Setup Genetics: White Widow (Zamnesia Seeds) Light Schedule: 11/13 (Flower From Seed) Stage: Week 3 – Preflower (no signs yet) Structure: Compact, Healthy | Heading into 4th Node Feeding: Aptus Full Recipe Lighting: ThinkGrow Model One Bars + Future of Grow Black Series 600W Control: Full TrolMaster Ecosystem ⸻ Three Weeks In – Compact & Confident Here we are, Week 3, and White Widow is showing us her best early form. She’s: • Tight in internodal spacing • Vibrant in color and leaf health • Low & strong, with no stretching yet • Just pushing into her fourth node and still no signs of flowering, exactly what we’d hope in this phase, given our light cycle She’s not rushing—she’s setting her foundation. In an 11/13 light cycle, some might expect earlier preflower signs, but not all strains respond immediately. And honestly? I’m loving this slower, more intentional rhythm. She’s taking her time, and that usually means she’ll stack smart, not wild. ⸻ 💧 Feeding Routine – Gentle, Consistent Support Even though she’s rooted in a rich super soil blend, we’re continuing to assist her via the feed water with a light, targeted Aptus mix: Current Feed Recipe: • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml/L • CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml/L • All-in-One Liquid – 1 ml/L • Start Booster – 0.25 ml/L This isn’t about force-feeding, this is about helping the soil activate and harmonize, giving her what she needs before she starts asking for more. The mix keeps her cell structure strong, supports microbial life, and encourages consistent early root development. She’s loving it and it shows. ⸻ 💡 The Environment – Light & Movement This week, she’s been bouncing between two active grow zones, as we continue to refine the entire setup. It’s all managed within the TrolMaster ecosystem, offering precision control over both lighting and environment. She’s currently rotating between: • ThinkGrow Model One Bars – soft, powerful full-spectrum LED bars with excellent canopy penetration • Future of Grow Black Series 600W – full spectrum, deep reds for flowering intensity Both are synced and monitored through TrolMaster, giving us: • Consistent PPFD targets (250–400 µmol/m²/s for now) • Environmental tracking for temp, RH, and VPD • Freedom to adapt space as needed while the grow evolves 🎛️ Why this setup? Because we’re still dialing in the room and flexibility is everything. She’s adjusting beautifully to these shifts, showing no signs of stress. A real soldier. ⸻ 👀 What to Expect / What Not to Expect Expect: • More node development, maintaining compact shape • Flower pre-signs within the next 7–10 days • Slow, deliberate shift toward stretch (if she chooses to stretch at all) • Stronger feeding signals as roots fully colonize the pot Not to Expect (just yet): • Pistils or heavy flower behavior • Wild vertical growth • Deficiency signs (thanks to our balance and microbial boost) She’s exactly where she needs to be. ⸻ 🤝 Gratitude & Shoutouts Huge thanks to the partners helping this journey become a reality: 🌱 Zamnesia Seeds – for delivering timeless classics like White Widow and keeping the legacy alive 🔧 Aptus Holland – for the precision nutrients that support both living soil and direct feeding 💡 ThinkGrow – for elegant, pro-level light bar systems that keep our canopy even and calm 🚀 Future of Grow – for the Black Series 600W, bringing serious intensity and bloom readiness 🧠 TrolMaster – for letting us control every detail, from light to leaf, with precision and peace of mind ⸻ 💚 Final Thoughts – Week 3 This White Widow is more than just a plant, she’s a rebirth after a rough start, a solo performance, and now she’s writing her own pace into this grow. No rush. No shortcuts. Just care, balance, and a slow, steady climb toward bloom. We’re watching closely, learning daily, and adjusting with love. Thank you for walking this path with us.

Week 3. This is where the fun begins. The smell is amazing. The stretch is crazy and the stems are stiff like bamboo. There's no loss in terps. They're actually getting a lot stronger!!

Transplanted in the afternoon of 10/23 because they were rooting out of the pucks. Got some humidity dome cups coming tomorrow and another inline fan to handle intake to try to dial in things a bit more. Fugue State #2, in the black pot is still a bit shell shocked, hopefully it opens up soon. Well both #2 and #3 damped off / shell shocked to death, so there's just one left, c'est la vie. #1 is trucking along well and ready for week 2. Sprayed with Neem Oil on 10/24 Fed Light Fox Farms Blend on 10/25 Treated with NemAttack on 10/26

Week 3 (April 12-18th) At this point I was using water and a small amount of coffee grounds. Spent a lot of time talking and singing to the plant. The leaves got bigger and formed quickly this week. If you look at the different days you can clearly see how big the plant was getting.

Very pleased with this grow so far, I often mess up photo periods one way or another but think im getting somewhere now. I am growing in a mixture of soil and coco with plenty of perlite and it seems to working out better than just in soil , I have also added a few worms not sure if their still allive but will find out later. The pistols are still white so hopefully they will turn amber soon. I have one more seed left of this strain so I am hopeful it will be nice. I am looking forward to seeing it chopped soon to make way for my wedding cake which will probably have to share the tent later with another auto

What's up Growmies🤟🏽. Week # 8 is in the books🙌🏾 Hello week #9💪🏾 I went a little overboard on pictures this week, they are so happy and healthy that I got carried away. I know we are supposed to post pictures with the lights off, however it's something about the contrast it gives with the lights on that makes it look sexy to me😁. I have had to tie the stalks of both White LSD plants due to heavy sagging. I'm noticing with this strain the stalks seem to topple over even though the buds are far from fully developed. A trellis net probably would be ideal however I hate them. They are easy to put on but very difficult to take off come harvest. I use garden wire and string them as if they are puppets being controlled by the puppet master🤪. I continue my feeding schedule with the recommended "bloom" concoction using general hydroponics Flora series trio. I give them 1 liter every 3 days. I have them on a 2 to 2 cycle (feed them twice with nutes and then twice with plan water) I keep the p.h. around 6.1 to 6.6. Temps and humidity are in the perfect range I'm enjoying it while it last because spring and summer in VA makes it difficult to keep the humidity in check. All in all everything is going well for me and my ladies. I hope the same for all of you. Until next week my friends Happy Growing 🤟🏽 and may the grow goddesses bless you all with a bountiful harvest 💪🏾

Plants were looking terrible this week. I use a humidifier and I am In a hard water area. Well I wondered why the exhaust fan I had to keep adjusting and researched and the hard water had clogged the carbon filter. Ordered a new one costly mistake. Anyone know exactly what the brown patches are. I assumed a calcium deficiency due to lockout as I was adjusting ph to 6.3. So I flushed through with 6.8 and they perked up the next day. I added calmag to be safe. Also suffering cold temps at night so could have been phosphorus deficiency lockout (only guessing) so I have increased temps at night. Never had these issues in veg before.

8/12 - Dropped 3 seeds into RO water to germinate 8/13 - Placed seeds into moist paper towel and into plastic bag to germinate on heat mat. 8/15 - All three seeds sprouted. In the morning I prepared three 3-gallon pots with Roots Organics Original Soil and Nature's Living Soil Autoflower mix. I will be doing Super Soil method for this grow. I filled the bottom one third of the pot with regular soil, then added 1 lb of Nature's Living soil and mixed it in. Then filled the rest of the pot with the regular soil. I topped it with Mosquito Bits for added BTI for pest prevention. Finally, I wet the pots down with RO water and Organic Black Strap Molasses. After about 8 hours, I planted the three seeds and placed them in the 4x5 tent with a humidity dome to keep in moisture. 8/16 - Two of the three already have their true leaves. So, I have removed the humidity domes from those two. 8/17 - The last of the GSCs have sprouted her true leaves so I have removed her dome. I sprayed them lightly again today with RO water and molasses.
