Wow what a week this has been, the plants have all undergone fair dramatic changes. A real flurry of leaf yellowing, pistil darkening/curling, and bug swelling. The smell is really coming along now, I think we're really quite close to harvest. On the assumption that pre-flowering was two weeks, this strain should be ready at the end of week seven flowering, so in the case of this diary the end of week nine (i.e. one week to go!). Pistils are about 70-80% amber, and the lower pistils on buds have started curling inward. Trichomes look to me to be something like 10% clear 80% Milky 10% White. I have smoke tested a small bud off the lower part of plant 3 today after quick-drying overnight in the airing cupboard, taking into consideration the obvious chlorophyll from the fast dry, the high was much closer to what I am expecting than the last smoke test. It came on at the normal pace, was quite effective, and lasted a good while. I am really hoping I can navigate my way through the next process, as I feel quite close now to having some home grown bud for the first time. The plants are being well watered this evening with just water, and this will be the last time that I water them until harvest. I will continue to monitor these daily, I intend to harvest at the first sign of any amber trichome. Advice and comments welcomed. P.S. Exciting news! My order from Green House Seeds arrived today for my next diaries! :)

0.1) Observação Geral Todo o cultivo foi conduzido com monitoramento constante e ajustes precisos de intensidade luminosa (DLI e PPFD), temperatura e umidade, garantindo condições ideais em cada estágio do desenvolvimento. 1) Substrato e Nutrientes O cultivo foi realizado utilizando água mineral com pH balanceado durante todo o ciclo. Fase vegetativa: fertilização com BioGrow. Floração: alimentação com Flowermind. A mistura do solo foi composta por 50% de substrato reutilizado, rico em nutrientes do cultivo anterior, e 50% de novo solo (proporção 70/15/15), resultando em uma base equilibrada e fértil. 2) Germinação – 19 de agosto As sementes foram germinadas utilizando água mineral + peróxido de hidrogênio em copinhos de gelatina individuais. Permaneceram por 24 horas na solução líquida, seguidas de 24 horas no escuro total sobre papel toalha umedecido com a mesma água, dentro do mesmo recipiente. Os copos foram abertos apenas a cada 12 horas, em ambiente de baixa luminosidade. Todas as sementes germinaram com sucesso. As sementes com raízes de aproximadamente 2 cm foram transferidas para vasos de 1 litro, com adição gradual de substrato conforme o crescimento das plântulas, prevenindo o tombamento dos caules. 3) Fase de Plântula a) Conduzida sob lâmpadas de 35W e 50W dentro de uma caixa de papelão personalizada, equipada com coolers e exaustor para controle de temperatura. b) Aplicação de FORT (enraizador) em uma rega, após o aparecimento do primeiro conjunto de folhas com cinco pontas. 4) Topping – 10 de setembro Foi realizado o primeiro corte apical para incentivar maior ramificação e uma distribuição mais equilibrada de energia. 5) LST (Low Stress Training) – iniciado em 13 de setembro O treinamento começou três dias após o topping, com amarrações graduais dos ramos para promover a abertura do dossel e melhor penetração de luz. 6) Transplante – 27 de setembro Transplante realizado para vasos de 4 litros, com rega leve e adaptação gradual à nova base de substrato. 7) Início da Floração (Troca para 12/12) – 6 de outubro O fotoperíodo foi ajustado para 12 horas de luz e 12 horas de escuridão, marcando o início oficial da fase de floração.

From now on, I shall update my diary everyday. I used some rosemary oil spray for the remaining spider mites. Worked like a charm Day 40: the buds are still developing new pistils. The weather these days has been sunny to cloudy with some rain.

This entire week was just rain, rain, rain. I kept the plants under the lamp. I'm really not prepared for indoor growing. But, light is light and it will work for a short time, apparently.

Great nose and terps. Cookies beats out Humboldt in quality. Yield was very low but that could have been growers error

Dutch Passions Shaman Beiden Schamaninnen geht es gut. Das Gießen klappt jetzt besser. No. 1 im großen Topf bekommt alle drei bis vier Tage 10-12 Liter Regenwasser langsam über eine Stunde verteilt. Schamanin No. 2 im 17 Litertopf trinkt meistens an zwei Tagen knapp sechs Liter. Es ist feucht im Garten, der Taupunkt wurde regelmäßig unterschritten. So bleibt es wohl bis Ende nächster Woche. Danke für‘s vorbeischauen. 🍅🥒🍇🥦

New journal with a New EcoLED 800w Draw LED light. Running a previously grown strain of Inzane in the Membrane. With the new lights ill be focusing on increasing my yield. 9 plants in a 4x4 dual level scrog. These clones have been vegged for a month or longer and have been placed into my 12/12HR flower tent. Lights are sitting stationary about 3 feet above the canopy. Plant height is sitting at Ive recently discovered some spider mites in another grow area. I do not believe they are in this section. But i will be treating the area over the next couple weeks with 2 treatments of End-All. Also will be using Dr Doom Fogger with a 7.5sec spray every 4 days for a couple weeks.

Last week of veg! as of writing this, start of week 7, she is already flipped to 12/12. She is ramping up her water intake finally! watered 5.5L 6.0PH 1ml/L Roots 4ml/L Grow on Day 38, 6L 6.0PH 1ml/L Roots 5ml/L Grow 0.6ml/L CalMag on Day 42 She has some rusty patches on a select few leaves, i top dressed a bit with extra limestone and gave her a hopefully one time dose of calmag. its not really bad yet but id rather be safe than sorry! Other than that she is doing mighty fine. Her stems are THICC. her leaves are BIG. Let's see what flower brings!

After the first 2 weeks of Veg, she's looking great! After adjusting the light distance and intensity a bit, the issue with the weak and stretchy stem disappeared. Also, the fact that her roots have reached the nutrient rich living soil part absolutely helped with her development. Now she's standing super firm, her stem is stable, her nodes are coming along nicely and thus on Day 17 I decided to top her just above the 4th node. Another day of rest and recovery before I'll adjust the light distance a little more, to bring it closer to the plant. She also has some mushrooms growing out of the soil - so sweet! When they're gone, I'll add some mulch and possibly a Blumat drip feed system, so the top soil remains a decent moisture level.

Booming and blooming. One pheno is about 25" tall, and the other is over 3' tall. Not a ton of odor yet, but I continue to be very impressed by the growth rate of these Pride of the Lion genetics. Sprayed CannControl on Wednesday as a preventive measure. Aphids are strong in the brussels sprouts right now.

Divine Seeds 2025 Auto Contest AK-47XL Auto 👉Sponsored Grow👈 W8F4 7/20-26 The hot weather returned with humidity and days of scattered thunderstorms. I fertilized once this week with I49 and top dressed with worm castings. Thankfully with all the rain we’ve had this month she doesn’t show any deficiencies or bud or root rot. I fertilized with I49 grow 1 tbsp/gal & 2 tbsp I49 Flower. My auto AK-47XL grew 1 more inch and is now 32 inches tall. She demonstrates resistance to pests and fungal diseases. As always, thank you all for stopping by, for the likes and most of all growers love and support. Stay green, growers love 💚🌿 💫Natrona💫

4 days to germinate via Jiffy Puck directly in soil. A couple seeds I picked-up from my local seedbank where I also got my Great White Shark seeds from which wasn't a great grow. I noticed Seedsman has discontinued this specific strain even though it had good reviews.
