Checked the trichomes of both Guava and Frostbanger and they aren't ready yet. Still about 75-80% milky/cloudy and 20-25% clear. The only amber trichomes are on the sugar leaves and fan leaves. I'm surprised how purple/black Guava has gotten since it's not supposed to be that color and is supposed to be sativa-dominant, not short like it is, but certainly not complaining because this pheno will get an A+ for bag appeal! Gelato has some nice purpling now too. I've been flushing Guava for a while but I'll probably start flushing the others since they're probably only a week or two behind Guava. The Zamnesia strains seem to be maturing the slowest of the lot, but still seem perfectly healthy. I've been removing yellow fan leaves and tying up sagging buds as needed. Included a video this time, so check it out!

🍑🍑🍑 Apricot Automatic – Outdoor Projekt Woche 2 Während die Strawberry Gorillas bereits in der Blüte stehen, beginnt für drei neue Damen gerade erst das Abenteuer. Alle drei Apricot Automatics entwickeln sich gesund, zeigen eine kräftige grüne Farbe und haben sich hervorragend an die Outdoor-Bedingungen angepasst. Trotz ihres jungen Alters legen sie aktuell das Fundament für einen spannenden Sommer. 🌱 Gesunde Entwicklung ☀️ Sehr gute Anpassung an das Outdoor-Klima 💚 Keine sichtbaren Mangelerscheinungen oder Stresssymptome 🌿 Stetig neues Wachstum Der Großteil der Arbeit findet momentan unter der Erde statt. Die Wurzeln erschließen nach und nach die Stofftöpfe und schaffen die Grundlage für das spätere explosive Wachstum. Es ist immer wieder faszinierend zu sehen, dass jede große Outdoor-Pflanze einmal genau so begonnen hat – klein, unscheinbar und voller Potenzial. Für die kommenden Tage lautet die Mission: Wurzeln bilden, Sonne tanken und sich auf die Wachstumsphase vorbereiten. Das Abenteuer hat gerade erst begonnen. 🍑☀️🌱 📅 Wie jeden Sonntag gibt es neue Updates auf GrowDiaries, damit ihr die Entwicklung aller drei Apricot Automatic Pflanzen durch die gesamte Outdoor-Saison 2026 verfolgen könnt. 😎🍑🍑🍑🌱 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🍑🍑🍑 Apricot Automatic – Outdoor Project Week 2 While the Strawberry Gorillas are already entering flower, three new ladies have just begun their journey. All three Apricot Automatics are showing healthy growth, vibrant green color, and excellent adaptation to their outdoor environment. Despite their young age, they are already building the foundation for what could become an exciting summer project. 🌱 Healthy development ☀️ Responding well to outdoor conditions 💚 No signs of deficiencies or stress 🌿 New growth appearing steadily At this stage, most of the work is happening below the surface as the roots establish themselves throughout the fabric pots. Once the root zone expands, growth above ground should accelerate significantly. It's always amazing to remember that every giant outdoor plant starts exactly like this — small, simple, and full of potential. For now, the mission is clear: Build roots, absorb sunshine, and prepare for the explosive growth phase ahead. The adventure has only just begun. 🍑☀️🌱 📅 As always, new updates will be posted every Sunday on GrowDiaries so you can follow the complete journey of all three Apricot Automatic plants throughout the 2026 outdoor season. 😎🍑🍑🍑🌱

Week 8 10-14 Day 50 She looks, smells and grows well! Little studdered on drinking. What else but pics and videos! 10-16 Just water and pictures. Letting her do her thang! Around 500-700ml water a day. 10-19 Some burn, so I ran some runoff, yep burn! 1200 ppm now 400. 😱 Well 2 weeks from here 🤣 or so. 10-20 Nothing changed. .

Letzte Woche?🏽

beautiful girl is growing strong hope she flowers soon

Well after a miscalculation on the feeding weeks I am back on track. I gave them a drink of PH 6.2 water on the 15th I will feed them this week with another Bloom, Humic Acid and Big Fruits I will increase them by 2 ml per gallon. I am out of the PK booster and should have enough of the other Green Buzz Nutrients to last the grow. They seem to be responding well to the feedings. I might have a little nutrient burn on some of the sugar leaves. Over all autos that don't get very big, the PPM level I have been giving them might be a little high. so one more week of feeding after this 1/25 last food before the 2week flush with Clean Fruits from Green Buzz Nutrients. something similar to a flawless finish I am guessing. till next week Roll Bigger Joints.😺

I will be running Blue Dream in my flower room but they havent even rooted yet. In the mean time, since shes getting huge lol I decided to flower Queen Blue my Nirvana Shop 'Blue Dream" mother. Lets see how she does! Ill add her daughters to the diary over time. EDIT: I mentioned I didnt cut the plant at all but thats actually not true I always top my plants at the 5-7th nod. Thats it though.

Going into week 7 the terps are starting to really come out. Some burnt rubber/funk up front with some sweetness on the backend. Sandy/gritty trichomes. I think she’d make a great washer. Slowly bringing the EC down this week and adding I’ll be adding Athena fade in later this week and slowly start the flush process as she finishes up

3ª Settimana di Fioritura 💐 Eccoci di nuovo con la bella RUNTZ 💓 che, dopo aver fatto un po di training, concentra le sue energie nella creazione dei suoi bei fiori😍

Nov 20th-27th Still Feeding at between 1.0 and 1.3 EC for the 12 Coco/Pearlite plants

Todas las semillas salieron perfectamente ! Como siempre un placer de hacer colaboración con PEV seeds ! Espero tener más mano con este cultivo … saludos

Welcome to my Bubblegum XL diary by royal queen seeds. Thanks to Royal queen seeds for al the goodies, there are some more like lighters and smartpot. As you can see, my bubblegum xl popped out of the soil, and is ready to grow into a beatifull plant. Lets wait for coming weeks development... I added a small update vid. on day 5.

SUNDAY 5/5: Rearranged the gardens..have 17 plants in the 4 x 5 now...yowsa! MONDAY: Plucked some dead leaves and did a trichrome check on her. She's getting close now! Prolly about 70% cloudy and 5% amber! TUESDAY: I observed some white spots on a few leaves here and there, so I sprayed her today with Trifecta Crop Cure, a concoction of a bunch of natural plant oils. I already decreased the humidity in the room to 45% with my new 70L dehumidifier, so I think she'll be fine. I'll spray her again tomorrow and the next day, then I'll have to hope that did the trick, because she is already in the harvest window. WEDNESDAY: I watered her today and included a bunch of terpinator, bud candy, bembe, and cha ching. It was her last dose of any nutes...flushing with spring water from here on out. THURSDAY: Took a couple of photos and tried installing my new Solacure FlowerPower UVB light, but it was dead on arrival.😢..back to the 15.0 reptile UVB lights for now I guess...

Great grow!! Should end up with over a half a pound off of these 2 and the little I harvested about 2 weeks ago. I got 2 oounces dry off of her. They smell amazing and are covered with trichomes

December 20, Day 106 This week is a big challenge week. Nutrients are changing. Strawberry Gorilla: Day 5 Drying Gorilla Cookies: Number 1 is nearly ready for flush. I added plain water to the reservoir today. I want to start clearing out the soil of all of its nutrients. This is living soil, but ice been spending the last 3 months adding bottled nutrients. I'll most likely keep plain water for the week and then I'll use Flawless Finish. For now it's just plain water. Her buds are really starting to look great. The pistils are starting to shrivel up and the aroma is getting super strong. She's still shedding leaves. None today, but I haven't really inspected her much. Not much to inspect to be honest. She looks great and is just packing on weight now. Number 2 is being moved to Overdrive today. Big Bud has been removed. Overdrive will be used for the next two weeks. Then flush. Her colas are huge and dense. There's a couple tops that look to be well over a foot long. However, those tops are too close to the light. So I'm sure they will foxtail on me. As long as the rest of the plant doesn't foxtail, I'll be very happy. It really doesn't look like I'll see any foxtails, but you never know. She got a full top feed with Overdrive and Recharge. Reservoir refill as well. It was indeed empty this morning. She is still a super thirsty girl. I'm still unsure about defoliating at the end of flower. I've been getting a lot of "don't do that's". I'll keep the question open until it's time for me to defoliate if I do at all. Maybe I'll defoliate just a couple days before harvest. I'm definitely taking all the fan leaves off before harvest. There are hundreds of them. That's my concern without defoliation. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.7° RH: 46.4% VPD: 1.43 kPa December 21, 2023 Absolutely nothing going on today. Strawberry Gorilla: Day 6 Drying Gorilla Cookies: Number 1 is looking great! She's definitely ready for flushing. I'll start the Flawless Finish in the next watering. I just have to wait for the reservoir to dry out and the soil to dry out some. Number 2 is her beastly self as ever. Nothing really to report today. Great cola production, smell is getting stronger and her water intake is as strong as ever. She hasn't touched the reservoir yet. It seems like an every other watering, the reservoir is completely left alone. She's already down to 22% moisture level. It's crazy how thirsty she is. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.6° RH: 45.6% VPD: 1.45 kPa December 22, 2023 Strawberry Gorilla: Day 7 Drying I didn't snap test today. She is very close to done drying. Maybe a couple more days. Maybe a little less. Gorilla Cookies: Number 1 looks like she's almost ready to go. Flushing has commenced. I removed the wick system and emptied the reservoir. Now it's top feed Flawless Finish for the next week or two. I got some trichome pics with my new microscope. My photography sucks, so the majority are blurry. I'll post the good ones. Number 2 needed a top feed today. The reservoir is just under half full now. Around 1.5 gallons every other day. It feels more like a gallon a day. She's still super thirsty. The buds are getting pretty dense and heavy now. A couple branches are starting to get weighed down. One of them will absolutely need support. The others should be fine. At this point in the grow, it's really a matter of watering and clearing out the dead leaves. Not much else to do except stare in awe of the masterpiece of a tree I have created. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.7° RH: 45.6% VPD: 1.45 kPa December 23, 2023 Strawberry Gorilla: Day 8 Drying Gorilla Cookies: Number 1 got a full top feed gallon of Flawless Finish today with some runoff. She has amber trichomes, lots of cloudy and just a few clear. She will be ready in about 7 or so days. She looks great! More weight gain. Especially in the lower buds of the canopy. I'd also like to note how vibrant her pistils are. Such a bright orange with the light they look like they are glowing. Number 2 is insanely thirsty. She needed another gallon of water and a full reservoir refill. So she is definitely drinking a gallon of water now. There was a bit of runoff, but not much. Today she was at 20% moisture content. I normally wait for 15% to 18% but today, I really wanted some runoff. The goal is to get both the wick system active and the soil to reset itself with more moisture. That should last a couple days. Other than that, her colas are insanely large now. They are dense and fat. Although, the tallest cola absolutely has light burn. The very top is white and fluffy. Definitely bleached. Now I know what that looks like. However, the rest of the cola looks fantastic. Just the very top is no good. That's ok though. There's plenty to go around. She still has like 4 weeks left. Including the flush stage. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.5° RH: 43.3% VPD: 1.50 kPa December 24, 2023 Strawberry Gorilla: Complete Trimmed and jarred at 41 grams. Gorilla Cookies: Number 1 is doing well. There was quite a bit of runoff yesterday. Well, more than I thought. I think I need to wait for her to really dry out before another flush. She hasn't started fading yet, but I expect it to start in the next week or so. She's still packing on weight from what I can tell. Not much, but the lower branches are starting to lean a tiny bit. I can assume a bit more while she finishes up. Number 2 looks fantastic. Her colas are getting fatter everyday. Also, I'm not seeing any swelling yet. Just growth. She will be needing a top watering tomorrow. The bottom feed system is working, but not as well as I'd like. Other than that. Not much going on today. Just trimming Strawberry Gorilla 1. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.5° RH: 45.8% VPD: 1.44 kPa December 25, 2023 Strawberry Gorilla: Day 1 Curing Gorilla Cookies: Number 1 got a full gallon top flush. Not much runoff as I expected. I'll wait a good 3 to 4 days before I flush again. She doesn't seem to be ready for the fade yet, but her leaves are starting to lighten up a bit in some places. I expect her to start fading in a few days. She has a good week left so there should be some really pretty colors before the end. Also, her buds are definitely getting heavier. I have a couple more branches that are starting to sag a bit from the weight. Number 2 got a full top feed today. No reservoir though. That's more than half full. Her colas are getting huge. Every single one is super dense and identically shaped. They are all around the same size as well with the exception of a few larger ones in the back. The largest will definitely suffer light burn for the rest of the grow. However, it's still getting super fat. I'll just cut the bleached parts off when I harvest. Still a super nice cola. I'm wondering if I should have kept up with the Big Bud for another week. But I believe Overdrive is for the bulking stage and not Big Bud. So maybe I did it right. Who knows. Lol. Well, the plant knows. Anyway, she has a great smell and I couldn't be happier with her progress. The lowest parts of the plant are pretty underdeveloped. Those will most likely just go in the trim. Or I'll grind it up untrimmed and keep the kief. We shall see. Maybe I'll stick it all in a separate jar and smoke that while the rest is curing. 🤔 I also need to mention the one cola who is suffering light burn and crazy bleaching. It's only that one, but it's still pretty bad. A lesson for me as well as what it looks like for future reference. I wonder if that one cola will cause any issues for the rest of the plant. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.3° RH: 49.5% VPD: 1.33 kPa December 26, 2023 I ordered some AC Infinity supplemental lighting. I'm hoping it helps prevent too many popcorn buds. It might be too late for Gorilla Cookies 1, but The Beast has plenty of time left to bulk up and pack on weight. Strawberry Gorilla: Day 2 Curing My hydrometers are all wrong I think. None of them have the same reading, and I have no idea which one is the correct reading. They are actually pretty far apart in the humidity. 10% swings. Almost 20% in one case. It's ridiculous. And they all came from the same packaging. Shame. I just need to guess now. Great. Anyway, I'm working on it. I'll figure out which one is the most accurate and base use that for a basis. And I'll use the reading from the other ones to set a basis for them. Gorilla Cookies: Number 1 is looking good. She's hanging out finishing up. No water needed. Her lower buds are really putting on weight. Unfortunately, I wasn't paying attention and accidentally bents some branches with my leg. Some buds got popped off and a single branch broke. She doesn't seem to be affected by it, but I'll keep an eye. Honestly, there's nothing I can really do now. She's in the home stretch. She could even be harvested in the next couple days. But I'll hold off for the next week or so, maybe less. Number 2 is the same deal. Looking great, packing on weight and being her beastly self as always. She needs no water today and nothing else. Tomorrow she will be getting a dose of recharge and I think it will be the last dose for her in this run. She has about a week and a half left of bloom before the maturing stage starts I think. I could be overshooting the days by a bit, but always good to be prepared. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.1° RH: 51.3% VPD: 1.29 kPa

Day idk I forgot lol she’s super beautiful And getting so frosty it’s amazing. I’m very happy with her so far. She’s a good looking lady beautiful as ever. Can’t wait to watch her swell up and go threw the bulking phase.

All going fine. Terps smell getting more intense. Dated the booster today. Ph now on 6.5. Light on 70% Happy Xmas and a lot of green trees 🎅🏼💚
