Hey now, hope everyone is enjoying their weekend....Good week for the Cream Mandarine Auto, she is still eating like crazy, I did switch her to the the ripening nutes, and will be switching to straight H20 here in the the next week or so based on what her triches look like under my miscroscope...her buds are definitely getting tight and sticky, and I had to provide support for 4 colas so far that were sagging towards the floor as the buds swelled up...Mars Hydro also sent me a tent to test out, it is a 4x4 main compartment, and also two smaller sections which are 4x2 and 4x6, which I will use the smaller one for seedings, and the larger one for drying flower. I will absolutely be running another Cream Mandarine Auto, she has been great, and she absolutely reaks every time I open the tent. I had her out last night for about an hour while I set up the new tent and she literally made my whole house stink. Very happy withe these genetics so far, I think she will be ready in 7-12 days but we will see.... I hope everyone enjoys the rest of your weekend, be safe and blaze on!

Week 4 of veg, lst done on them before flipping to flower

" Il reste quelques gens biens donc je garde espoire " PNL Wednesday It's fattening and ot seems that the bugs are not around anymore but it's just an illusion as a low population in still a population so I'm still at war. Thanks for your inputs , it's when you are in trouble that you're realising that you've got a whole community here for you 😘🤘👌🙌 Observations : Burning tips of the leaves due to an over feeding // Lower leaves that are fading and falling due to the age // Old signs of PH fluctuation As my last runoff check was a while ago I'm about to check these values today 👍🤘 Saturday The small Grapefruits, the one with the 420 pin , is doing so so . Two of the main buds have some bud rot due to the high humidity of the 2 last days ... high humidity due to the fact that I am working without air extractor and box half open but I've closed my box for less than. 48h and when zinc opened it the wall were full of water drops ( more than drops ) To help with that issue I've done a defoliation to have a better air circulation around the buds even if it's not recommended to do it that far in flowering. I've also observed the trichomes and they are mostly cloudy with a few brown and like 40% of clear trichs : surprising as the looks like she may need 1 extra week or 2 before cutting

Last week of pre flower girls are doing great can’t believe they’re clones

26.12.24: I have noticed light stress on my plants. I had moved the lights further away and increased the light intensity to 70%. Unfortunately that created some issues. Namely severe palour of the leaves. To try and rectify the situation, I've dimmed the lights to about 30%, staying at the same distance, about 30 inches away. I measured the par levels, after I did this. They should a reading of anywhere between 40 and 150, at the canopy of the plants. They are all different sizes. This seems to have improved the colouring on all plants. After this evenings watering, I will monitor recovery and increase lighting intensity again slowly. I am also using the light cycle of 21/3, so the plants have many hours more light to absorb, than for example 12/12 or 18/6. I am pleased with the progress, considering all of my mistakes! 29.12.24: So I finally gave LST a shot, it's probably a bit too late, however I really want to get the most of the triploid pheno, and I went a little crazy and LST'd all plants except 2, as they're too small. I did that late last night, this afternoon I was amazed to see the plants turn their leaves back to the light source. I'm glad I overcame my fear of trying it. I'm very excited to see them adapt and progress! 😁 there are videos above with before and after of my LST process. Thanks for checking out my diary 🍃 ✌️

Had a little heat issue it was hitting 110 degrees outside for four days straight and about 130 degrees in the GrowRoom didn’t have the funds to get a ac for the room but working on it so my lady’s suffered for a few days

📆 Semana 7 La Lemon Cherry Runtz sigue su avance imparable en floración. Los cogollos se vuelven más densos y pesados, cubiertos de una capa de resina cada vez más brillante, que refleja la luz como un pequeño tesoro. Los pistilos comienzan a oscurecerse, anunciando la llegada de la madurez final, mientras el aroma dulce y afrutado se intensifica, envolviendo el espacio con notas golosas y envolventes. Las ramas laterales mantienen su fuerza, soportando sin problema el creciente peso de los cogollos, y la estructura general sigue equilibrada y aireada, perfecta para un desarrollo óptimo. Las hojas grandes ceden aún más espacio, dejando que la floración ocupe todo el protagonismo. 🌸 El espectáculo visual y aromático sigue en pleno apogeo, y lo mejor aún está por venir. Seguimos creciendo fuerte 💪!

End of week 10 Day 106 from

No reservoir change this week in the end, just top ups and nutrient top ups - If I stop being lazy, I might do a complete change out tomorrow (D85). They're getting really frosty now. Can't wait to make some leafy THC snow in a few weeks time after I install my 24w UV-B tube above the canopy. Starting to pack on some lateral buds as well, pretty much mirroring last grow in terms of growth so far, without hacked off tops this time :) Can't really do anything about the wind burn, just got to accept it, otherwise the fan is on too low and doesn't move air properly. Solid argument against excessive leaf removal here: https://www.cocoforcannabis.com/community/photons_corner/to-defoliate-or-not-to-defoliate/ --UPDATE D89-- After the reservoir change on D85, I upped the pure blend tea to 10ml/US gallon, by god she's exploded. I think as a whole, the bud mass is almost on par with my last grow when it was chopped and there is still another 40-45 days left in her... Fingers crossed I don't fuck this one up 🤐 Thanks for stopping by!

I believe the plants still have a little stretch in them. They have not grown much since the bud production picked up last week. The berry bomb still seems to work well off lite nutrients. The smell has started to choose days that it stinks, and days it is invisible. I live in a legal state; I am allowed up to 12 plants. Smell is not a issue for me. I do not need to hide my grows. I had to set up a wire tie on the plant in the videos. She started to lean right. While setting it up the smell that stuck to my gloves was very fruity. I cannot wait to smoke the final out come. The berry bomb auto has been super resilient to most common grow issues. She also bounces back insanely quick fro stress. This is not something I have seen in many auto flowers due to the limited time they have to grow, and bud. I am so impressed by the genetics of this plant. I'm just blown away with this grow.

The candycane seems to be not growing too much is just seems to be packing on some weight on those buds so I don't think they're going to grow much more the heights are like this: 21.5 inch 15.5 inch. I also seem to have a problem with nitrogen deficiency possibly . They have a very light scent of a fruity sweets candy if I can describe it somehow. I will post more pictures without the grow light on so is better view of how the plant are doing . Day 45 today I feed my plants solution a little bit heavy on the nitrogen in order to try to flush out any build-up salt that could be causing a lockout or simply just i haven't water enough because I don't I like poured too much water on to them to avoid actually run out.thank you for reading I have a happy grow.

At about mid-week the canopy was becoming very full so I defoliated to let light hit all of the bud sites. I found an article that mentioned "Schwazzing" and it seems close to how the approach this grow has gone. They got heavy defoliation just before flower and then also a few weeks in. The broken stem has healed dramatically even though I didn't reconnect it but let it stay split. I put rooting gel in the wound and then duck taped it. Now it looks like its going to seal itself back up within a few more weeks. The light is intense, 70-75K LUX on the top of the canopy. I have a little room left to raise the top light before I have to start dimming it. Hopefully I can manage to keep them at max 75K LUX without dimming, or may try supercropping depending on how the stretching goes. This week all the side lights are on along with the main light. They all seem to be loving the light and the heat has been manageable. They are drinking about a half gallon of water a day and TDS started at 1100 and ended at 800 by the end of the week. * Pineapple Express 1 is the furthest along and I can already tell the smell is going to be amazing, very fruity. * Pineapple Express 2 is very lush but flowering a notch slower. * Pineapple Skunk has a concentrated number of buds sites compared to the others, I'm very excited for this one. Day Temp: 75 degrees F Night Temp: 65 degrees F

All going well

Ok so this here is my lady she has a great structure and over all height to use .. The whole plant has been growing fast both in width and height out of it. The grow has been organic and and feeding it with @miicrobialmass a biological additive that brings the soil around the roots alive .. we are going to have a monster on out hands..

Die kleine Larry hat nur eine halbe Woche 20 gehabt und wurde Samstag geerntet. Der Schimmel kam dann doch. AK ist bisher verschont geblieben. Sie hat später begonnen,zu blühen und hat bisher nicht so große buds entwickelt. Aber ich lass sie noch stehen.in der Hoffnung, sie baut noch ein bisschen Masse in ihrer wahrscheinlich letzten Woche. Es geht dem Ende entgegen. Bis nächste Woche ✌️

Hello, Grow Diaries fam! 🌿✨ We’re now in Week 10 from seed, and what a journey it’s been. This week, the grow room has transformed into a breathtaking display of autumnal beauty, with the plants showcasing stunning fades and vibrant colors as they enter their final stages of life. It’s a true celebration of nature’s cycles, and the energy in the room is palpable. Let’s dive into this epic week! 🌟 Week 10 Highlights 🌟 The plants are embracing their last days with grace, each one revealing a unique spectrum of colors and expressions. The transition to 12/12 light cycle continues to push them toward their full potential, all thanks to the Big Demon, who’s still leading the charge with her massive stature. Here’s a closer look at what’s been happening: 1. Moon Rock 🚀: • Appearance: Moon Rock is a sight to behold, with her compact buds now radiating deep purples and blues. The fading leaves add a touch of gold and burgundy, creating a gorgeous contrast. • Maturity: Trichomes are nearing their peak, with a beautiful mix of milky and amber hues. The plant is exuding a rich, earthy aroma that’s both soothing and powerful. • Notes: Moon Rock’s structure remains solid, with every bud dense and resinous. She’s almost ready to harvest, but we’re giving her a bit more time to fully mature and express her genetics. 2. Opium 🌸: • Appearance: Opium has embraced the autumn spirit with a stunning display of fiery reds, oranges, and purples. The buds are heavy, covered in a thick layer of trichomes, and the leaves are curling into a final, beautiful farewell. • Maturity: The buds are at their densest, with pistils mostly curled and darkened. The scent is intoxicating, with sweet and spicy notes filling the room. • Notes: Opium is reaching her final form, with the fade adding to her allure. She’s almost ready to give up her bounty, and we’re closely watching the trichomes to catch the perfect harvest moment. 3. Big Demon 💪: • Appearance: Big Demon continues to dominate, with her towering colas still swelling and gaining density. Her leaves are just beginning to show signs of fade, with a mix of deep greens and light yellows starting to emerge. • Maturity: She’s not quite there yet, still pushing out new growth and adding weight to her massive buds. The trichomes are mostly clear, indicating that she’s got more to give before she’s ready. • Notes: Big Demon is the reason we switched to 12/12, and she’s proving to be worth the wait. Her potential is enormous, and we’re excited to see how much more she’ll develop in the coming weeks. 🌟 The Beauty of the Fade 🌟 This week, the grow room has become a canvas of color, with each plant expressing its own unique fade: • Moon Rock: Deep purples and blues with a touch of gold. • Opium: Fiery reds, oranges, and purples, creating a warm, autumnal palette. • Big Demon: Still mostly green, but with hints of yellow signaling the beginning of her fade. The fade is not just a visual treat—it’s also a sign that the plants are nearing the end of their life cycle. As the leaves lose their chlorophyll, they reveal the hidden pigments underneath, resulting in the stunning colors we see now. It’s a reminder of the natural process of life, death, and renewal, all happening within the grow room. 🌟 Environmental and Nutrient Strategy 🌟 We’re continuing with our tried-and-true strategy: • Water: • TDS: 400 ppm • pH: 6.2 • Temperature: 18°C • Grow Room Conditions: • Temperature: 30.3°C • Relative Humidity (RH): 51% The Lumatek Zeus 465 Compact Pro LED is still our powerhouse, providing the perfect light spectrum for these final weeks. The TrolMaster Hydro X controller keeps the environment stable, ensuring that the plants have everything they need to finish strong. 🌟 Reflecting on the Journey 🌟 As we approach the end of this run, it’s amazing to see how far the plants have come. From tiny seeds to these magnificent, flowering beauties, it’s been a journey of growth, learning, and appreciation for the magic of cultivation. Each plant has its own story, and the fades we’re witnessing now are like the final chapter of a well-written novel. 🌱 Next Steps 🌱 • Monitoring Maturity: We’re keeping a close eye on the trichomes and the overall appearance of the plants to determine the perfect harvest window. • Final Feed Adjustments: We’re starting to consider a flush for the plants that are nearing harvest, ensuring the smoothest, cleanest smoke possible. • Harvest Preparations: With harvest just around the corner, we’re getting everything ready for a seamless transition from plant to drying room. Thank you for following along on this incredible journey. The finish line is in sight, and we can’t wait to share the final results with you all! Happy growing, and may your gardens be ever green! 🌿💚 #DivineSeeds #Week10FromSeed #Week7Flower #AptusHolland #MoonRock #Opium #BigDemon #GrowDiaries #PlantMagic #GreenThumb #Inspiration #LumatekZeus #TrolMasterHydroX Germination method 🌱 @thecannakan Nutrition @aptusholland 🌿 @aptus_world 🌎 @aptus_es 🌍 @aptusbrasil 🌱 @aptus_thailand 🌿 @aptus_portugal 🌳 @aptususa_official 🍀 @aptusplanttechnz 🌺 @aptusplanttechaus 🍃 Ambient controls🎮 @trolmaster.eu @trolmaster.eu.support @trolmaster.support @trolmaster.agro Soil @promix_growers_eur @promix_cannabis LED - @lumatekeu Watering- @autopot_usa @autopot_global Love and attention- @dogdoctorofficial #aptus #aptusplanttech #aptusgang #aptusfamily #aptustrueplantscience #inbalancewithnature #trolmaster #trolmastereurope #trolmastersecrets #Autopots #GreenJoy As always thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all , this journey of mine wold just not be the same without you guys, the love and support is very much appreciated and i fell honored and so joyful with you all in my life 🙏 With true love comes happiness 💚🙏 Always believe in your self and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart , be a giver and the universe will give back to you in ways you could not even imagine so 💚 More info and complete updates from all my adventures can be found ⬆️ link in the profile description ⬆️ Friendly reminder all you see here is pure research and for educational purposes only 💚Growers Love To you All 💚

These girls are on fire , super dense heavy nugs . Smells incredible and can’t wait . Harvest is expected before the end of the month . Btw this is actually my first grow … I’ve been studying a lot and have certs from thc university.

15th day into flowering- Trim some Fan leaves /anything cover canopy. 18TH DAY FLOWER- LOLI POPPING. JUST WATER EVERY 3 DAYS PH 6.5

Not much to say this week. Still feeding the same amount. Looks like it might be starting to foxtail. It's really a bummer there is no purple yet, I grabbed this because I wanted a modern purple strain!
