Trop Cherry #8 x BeeJayz hasn’t been topped, I transplanted the girls this week from a 1 gallon pot to a 3 gallon pot. Trop Cherry was in a plastic pot but now in a fabric pot. Plants seem to be growing well.

today with more experience. I see that I made some mistakes, about nutrients and some techniques, but as I repeat this was my second crop. it did not yield as much income as it should, but it was worth it, cultivating and learning.

Easy grow and the overall quality is great. I feel like I definitely could yield way more if I did way more training. If included trim and shake, this planted yield 2 ozs which isn’t bad for sharing space with 3 other plants in a 2x2 space. I have a few more seeds of this strain and will be growing them again definitely. I’ll catch yall on the next one ☝️🏾

If you come across something Im doing wrong or some faults or got any tips or useful tricks. Feel free to let me know. I can use all the info and pointers. Fyi this is my first op if you cant tell by the plant conditions lmfao

03/03/2022 Down to one Lemon OG, one Biscotti Skunk, and three Grape Skunk all looking super vigorous including Lemon OG . Very happy with the genetics so far trimmed up the legs a bit lots of potential clones! Ps. Forgot picture of Biscotti Skunk it's lights out so that will get done tomorrow.

Goin to let her grow, for another couple of weeks. Will keep an eye on the trichomes and cut 1 plant if she is ready. Will let the thin one grow larger... less CBD %, but more harvest! The one is gettin fat 🤩❤️😛

The temperatures, humidity, height, and watering volume(if measured) in grow conditions are all averaged for the week. The pH is soil pH. Any watering done by me is well water which is 7.6 pH and 50° F. Any listed nutrients are ml/gallon of soil to be spread evenly on top of the soil. Day 1 we had a high temperature of 81°F with partly cloudy skies. We missed the 50% chance of rain today. I watered 4-5 gallons per pot, once. Day 2 we had a high temperature of 71°F with cloudy overcast skies. It's rained most of the morning with more rain in the forecast. Day 3 we had a high temperature of 77°F. We had a big front move through today. It been raining and overcast all day. The girls seem to be loving it, but I'll need to treat for powdery mildew again ASAP. Day 4 we had a high temperature today of 83° F. Skies were cloudy to partly cloudy and it rained for several hours. Day 5 we had a high temperature of 91°F. We had rain overnight and early morning. The skies were partly cloudy and I didn't have to water today. Day 6 we had a high temperature of 90°F. Skies were sunny and I watered 4-5 gallons per pot once. I treated with Growers Ally Fungicide just before dark. Day 7 we had a high temperature of 90°F. Skies were sunny and it wasn't as humid as it's been. I watered about 5 gallons per pot ,once, from the well. This week was a success. We had pretty miserable weather for cannabis. Lots of rain and cool nights. The girls began to pick up a little powdery mildew through all that. I treated on day 6 after we got a break from the rain. They responded great. The pm cleared up and they really grew during all that rain. The buds are beginning to smell sweet and are starting to build up trichromes. The other grows grew a little less than these in height. These wch really like to get big. That said I expect the upward growth to slow drastically this week as the plants focus more on flower production. They're still feeding out the nutrients I added to the soil. I may start using a liquid feed formula but will wait and see how the plants flower development goes.

What a journey it has been from seed! I made a lot of mistakes in the first few weeks of this growing journey. I feel like I had a mini-crash after finishing the first year of grad school, and although I am growing cannabis as part of my research project, I haven't been the greatest at paying attention to it. This is not an excuse. It has actually been a learning opportunity. I realized that my body needs proper schedules to function and grow, just like a plant. The problems with the plant have really been my own problems. Let's just say that a plant may be the reflection of the grower. First, the light cycles were wrong and inconsistent. I thought that I could manually control the light schedule for the plants and be alright. However, I was wrong. My sleep schedule has been very inconsistent for the past few months. Mainly because we are living through a pandemic, and secondly because I am a graduate student 😂. How naive was it of me to think that a plant could follow my own rhythms? I guess it highlights my 'plant blindness.' Second, the light intensity was low and PH levels high. In the last five days, I have learned that plants are living organisms (I knew this, but my plant blindness is quick to dismiss it, I need to stop fighting these "plant voices" (signals)) that require a proper environment to grow, similar to humans. Of course, a plant is not human, but it is alive and living. It needs water, a regular schedule (light (active) /darkness (rest), oxygen, nutrients, and an overall good environment to grow. Concern about the size of my plant at five weeks, I decided to conduct a few experiments at home. Here are my notes: Friday, July 23, 2021, I took the plant out of the tent at 6:00 AM and placed it in front of my backyard window that faces the Eastside, perfect for sunrise. On that day, I had a few errands to run, and when I arrived home, it was 2:30 PM. The sun was now hitting the West side of my house, and I had to move the plant in front of my bedroom window. At around 7:00 PM, I went to look at the plant and noticed that its leaves were looking plumpy. So, I decided to take a timelapse to see what I would be able to record. During "magic hour" (sunset), I recorded and witnessed the plant moving with the rhythms of the sun. Plant, like humans, function at their best when they are synchronized with their circadian rhythm. The pandemic has definitely disoriented us to the point that it has disrupted all of our schedules. To this day, I feel tired from everything we have all been through; how could I possibly think that a plant would thrive with such a messed-up schedule? The time lapse made me realize that the plant needs some structure to thrive, and so do I. So, as much as I like to think that I can be disciplined and follow a plant's schedule, I cannot. So, I went to the store and bought the Globe Suite smart plug to automate and schedule the light cycle to 12hrs of light and 6 hours of darkness. Saturday, July 24, 2021, the plant woke up to the set schedule of the lights. I checked on the plant first thing in the morning, around 9:30 AM. The leaves look much greener and thicker than they did the day before. Sunday, July 25, 2021. I was away overnight and did not arrive home until 2 PM. The plant looks twice the size it was on Friday! Today, I will water the plant. I got a PH test kit and realized that the way that I measured the PH level, the first few weeks was wrong 🤦‍♀️🏽. I measured the PH correctly, to 5.9, and added some Reefertilizer grow nutrients to the water. I watered from the top, distributing the water evenly around the stem. My partner pointed to me that the lights seemed dim for the stage of the plant's life. So I had my lights set at 100 watts running at 20 % 😅. I realized that I had not increased the light intensity since the first few weeks of vegetation 🤦‍♀️🏽. So I increased the intensity to 100 watts running at 60%. Monday, July 26, 2021. First check-in 7:00 AM: The plant looks like it loves all of the new changes that I have made! It is finally growing 🤗 The sun is out, but it is not as intense as it should be because tiny particles of smoke are present in our air due to the wildfires, and they create a filter that makes the human eye see the sun blood red. It is quite apocalyptic. Regardless, I decided to take the plant out from the tent and record a time-lapse. It is fascinating how much movement plants have despite showing no noticeable signs of movement (to the human eye). Tuesday, July 27, 2021. It has been five days since I have made big changes to the plant's schedule and environment. The plant is finally showing good signs of growth, and its leaves colours have changed to a deep green. I am not watering the plant today, but I am spritzing it with water. I decided to take another time-lapse of the plant, but this time inside the tent. As I was setting up the tripod for my camera, I accidentally increased the humidifier 🤦‍♀️🏽. Luckily, I noticed within a reasonable timeframe and reduced the humidity and made the environment better. I increased the light intensity to 100 watts at 100%. The plant will stay in the tent all day today because it is raining ☔️.

Hello Growers and Tokers! 👋 👩‍🌾 🧑‍🌾.🔥💨 Info and pictures were taken at day 12 of flower. Nice progress this week. There's plenty of new growth. She hasn't grown upwards as much as the other ladies, only about 5 cm this week. BUT she's got a darker green color, stronger smell than all the others. It's smell is unique and very strong. Not sweet, VERY pungent, it's a slap in the face kind of smell. Her bud formation is also more advanced than all the other girls. That's something I need to watch out for because she's an early finisher. Supposedly finishes in 40 - 45 days. Feeding 1,5L each, every other day. Will be increasing as they ask for more. How do they ask for more? When feeding if the soil is drier than normal I give a 150-200ml increment of water. I do that until they stop feeding so much then i just maintain that amount. I start reducing if it takes longer to dry. That works good for me. The old finger in the dirt trick. 👍 Nothing like knowing exactly what your ladies need first hand. That's it for now. Stay tuned for next week's update. If you like what you see check out the other diaries. Take care and stay safe! One love! ✌️🏽

11/6 Monday. She’s very very dry today. I’m gonna do 96 ounces of water she’ll take all that and I’m gonna do the medium feeding schedule and I’m gonna go with the bloom tastic I’m gonna do two mils per gallon. 11/7 after the water last night she did really good, but because I did not top her at the fourth node, I usually do. I just tied the branches back with those plastic clips I need to defoliate there’s way too much underneath I’ve never had this kind of growth before so I have to go and trim out some of the non-functioning branches and some of the bigger leaves to get some airflow and light to the bottom. She’s really great I’m super surprised last time I had bad Soil and this time I have some bugs but I’ve sprayed for them and she’s responding well I also gave that bloom hardener sooner than I should’ve but she’s doing good LST went good 👍 8 hours later she’s responding. Well leaves are starting to reach up again because I lowered the light to 92 W whenever they start pushing down it seems like there’s too much light which also means it’s cooler so it’s just great. I’m glad I got the Mars Hydro lights. They’ve made a huge difference being able to put the driver outside the tent without having to buy any extras. I’ll probably get a fourth one of those eventually. 11/8 Wednesday super early morning I dried some of the little branches. I took off overnight and I’m smoking them right now. I can’t believe it. She is so strong. Her leaves are really starting to wake up. Lowering the light made a huge difference. the light was just too powerful. I keep forgetting that so I turned it down to about 92 W and she’s really waking up today. It’s incredible and I’m a little bit dizzy. It’s a little stronger than I thought. This is one of my best ones. I really like this. 👍👍👍 11/8 PM I turned the light up 5 W. It made a pretty good difference and I raised it up about 2 inches to get a little more light spread. I did another unexpected watering today. She was completely dry so I did a full gallon. I mean 96 ounces with half gallon measured out nutrients, I had some weird issues with my water. I hope it doesn’t affect the plants. I boiled my water and I look at the top of it and lots of small particles floating on the top of the water & the bottom of the pan has something brown burned onto it. Very weird. 11/9 👍👍👍🤩 11/10 I did another watering using 96 ounces this morning. She is growing like nothing I’ve ever seen before. Last time I topped her between the third and fourth node to keep her small and I did it way too soon. I was experimenting so her main stem was really thin and this time is one of the thickest ones I’ve had, so she clearly does not like being topped and now she’s growing into a beautiful monster it’s just great is probably one of my best grows 11/11 her buds really seemed to swell overnight after the defoliation and the feeding. Lowering the lights wattage as helped I’m just going to leave her alone today, but wow.🤩 She had a really good day. I did a little extra tying down of some branches. I didn’t takeoff early any leaves just one or two let her heal a lot from trimming yesterday she doing great probably my best grow ever and the first time that I’ve just used tying the branches down instead of topping much better result for this plant. 11/12 Sunday end of the week. She has been phenomenal this week and her buds are really starting to swell. Now I have to spray for bugs. I think that the soil bugs are eating at the roots whenever I spray at the bottom of the bag I immediately could results so there’s something in the soil I’m competing with, but she is the best girl I’ve ever had. You can get up to nine free seats if you buy the right thing on seedsman and so I stocked up on these critical pluses now I know how big they get. I’m gonna keep growing these and they smell so good .

VPD : 0.8-1.2 PPFD : 450-600 DLI : 27-45 Der AC Infinity AI+ Controller ist angekommen. Den T7 Luftbefeuchter hatte ich schon einige Tage davor im Einsatz mit Sensor konnte er auch alleine ziemlich gut den VPD regulieren. Bisher Top Produkte. AC Infinity Heater, Spiderfarmer Luftentfeuchter, Lichtadapter Zwecks Controller Steuerung kommen noch dazu. Bald auch mit CO2, wenn ich schon den Sensor und die automatisierten Möglichkeiten dafür habe… Haben noch 2 Plugs um die Abluft und den Luftentfeuchter mit einzubinden, würde nur noch einer für die CO2 Anlage fehlen. Langsam habe ich das Gefühl, dass die Ladys Fahrt aufgenommen haben… zuvor war alles eher gedrungen etc. Jetzt sind auch die Seitentriebe deutlich massiver, 1-2 Wochen werden die Ladys auf jedenfall noch in der VEG bleiben. Bin auf das Ergebnis gespannt

Smell isn’t that strong but it has a pine smell to it one more week before chop

Mar 31st Week 16 Mar 30 Changed nutrients to straight Dense Bud Compactor 1 gram / litre @ 900-1000 ppm April 1st I will add the rest of the nutrients to the exiting solution and check on ppm level April 1st changed nutrients from straight Dense Bud Compactor to full range all listed nutrients Added 8 litres of fresh water + 6 litres of the existing Dense Bud solution to come up with a mix concentration of 1100 ppm Hopefully this will be the shit!

2025-07-27 Thsi girl had some defoiliation and we are coming to an end pitils turning brown and plant shows some autumncolors- trichomes are miky so i think the next 3-4 dys she will be cut down xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Gaia F1 has taken its place in the pantheon of F1 hybrid cannabis genetics.

I am still on holiday. My irrigation system seems to work. I can only show you a video from my Blink in the greenhouse, showing 24 hours from Friday to Saturday. Euphora is the cannabis plant in the back; she seems to be well. You can also see Tropical Morage in the front and right in front a giant basilicum hybrid and a Lila Luzi chili plant. Next sunday, I will be back with a more detailed report. Meanwhile, I am testing a few new strains in coffeeshops in Den Haag and Amsterdam :-).

This week went pretty well, other than she stretched like crazy and I am now getting worried about running out of vertical space. I also had a few of my bottom leaves get a few brown and yellow spots on them. I did post some pics and asked a question, thank you for the responses, much appreciated! I am thinking about adding my Spyder Farmer LED 100 Watt light into the tent for the nebula auto because it is about 23 inches shorter than the sour diesel. I believe it would only raise my temp about 2 degrees, and possibly lower the humidity by one or two percent. I must say my dehumidifier has been a freaking stud, running 24X7 and not complaining. I should look into adding another unit, it has been in the mid 90's and muggy for about a week. So far I have to say I am super impressed and excited with this setup, the genetics, and with growing this wonderful plant in general. Already planning ahead to my next grow, and what I can do better. I have been enjoying myself and I really appreciate everyone who has taken the time to answer my questions! I am having a blast and am excited to see what this lady will give up in a few weeks!
