🌱 Week 1: The Journey Begins! 🌟 Hey Grow Fam! 🙌 We’re off to an epic start with our TrolMaster adventure, and I’m already feeling the love for the setup, the seeds, and the growth happening in the room! So, let’s dive right in and get into the details of this exciting week! 🌿 Germination Update: Our first Gorilla Melon seed from Fast Buds didn’t sprout, but no worries—round two was a success! 🦍🍈 The second seed has germinated and is looking full of potential. I’m throwing in a Sweet Seeds Papaya Zoap into the germination station too, so we’re keeping this exciting lineup going strong! Germination is such a key part of the journey, and having a healthy start is what it’s all about. 🔧 Room Build & TrolMaster Setup: The build is coming along beautifully, and I gotta say, the TrolMaster system is blowing my mind! Everything’s under control like magic 🎩✨, and the TM+ app? Wow, just wow. I mean, I can literally be in the bathroom and still keep an eye on the plants—check all the metrics, adjust settings, and fine-tune what I need, all from my phone! 😂💧 This level of control is next level. I’m loving how smooth and seamless it makes managing the room. The gear is just unreal, and seeing it all come together is truly something special. 🌱 Nutrition Talk: As for feeding, we’re starting light but smart! I’ve begun with 0.15ml of Regulator and 0.25ml of Startbooster per liter for now. I always believe in starting easy and ramping up as the plants develop. These early stages are crucial—balance is everything. For the time being, I feel this is more than enough to keep the babies happy and healthy. 🌿💧 The Regulator is working wonders in maintaining plant structure and health, while the Startbooster is fueling the early root and vegetative growth, laying down a solid foundation for the weeks to come. It’s about getting it right from the start—too much too early can be a killer. Keeping it steady with precision, that’s the goal! Big Shout-Outs: To the amazing team at @TrolMaster, @Fast_Buds, @Sweet_Seeds, @AptusHolland, and all the incredible sponsors—I’m beyond grateful for the support! 💚 And to my GrowDiaries fam and followers, you guys make this journey what it is—thank you for the love, and I’m so honored to have you along for this ride. 🙏 We’re just getting started, and I can’t wait to show you what’s next. Stay tuned for more updates, epic builds, gear reviews, and plenty of insight. Don’t forget to follow me on GrowDiaries, YouTube, and IG for exclusive content, and let’s make this grow the best one yet! 🌿🔥 Growers Love to All 💚💚💚 P.S.- A deep dive into the Full Spectrum Quantum Sensor (MBS-PAR): The Full Spectrum Quantum Sensor (MBS-PAR) is an essential tool for any serious grower looking to optimize their light environment. This sensor measures photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), which refers to the spectrum of light that plants actually use for photosynthesis—typically between 400 and 700 nanometers and more depending . What makes the MBS-PAR sensor special is its full spectrum capability, meaning it accurately detects not just visible light but also far-red and UV light—which are crucial for maximizing plant growth, development, and flowering. With this tool, I can monitor the exact intensity of light my plants are receiving, making sure they’re getting the optimal levels for every stage of growth. By using this sensor in my grow room, I’ll be able to ensure that the light distribution is uniform across the canopy. Plus, it allows me to fine-tune the light output from my ThinkGrow LED setup, ensuring my plants are thriving under the best conditions. Whether it’s increasing light during the vegetative phase or fine-tuning it for flowering, the MBS-PAR sensor helps me keep everything on point. And the best part? I can monitor it all through the TrolMaster app, ensuring I can make adjustments whenever needed—even if I’m not in the grow room! This level of precision means healthier plants, better yields, and maximum efficiency. It’s a game-changer for taking the guesswork out of lighting and getting closer to growing perfection! 🌱💡 Growers Love to All 💚💚💚

I'd like to say a big hello to all and thanks for taking a look at my first grow! all feedback is appreciated and I am happy to experience growing this plant even if I do not succeed this time. Apologies for the bad picture quality, I will improve this! without further ado lets give this Dwarf a happy life! Pre soaked the canna pro plus coco with plant start at 2ml/1ltr No activity from the plant in the first three days. using a big baggie as a humidity dome which has helped keep humidity high for the 🌱 Noticed on day 5 that the root has made its way through the soil bigtime and was desperately reaching for the light... immediately placed under the phlizon 3000w (630w true power draw) COB LED using only the LED supplemental lights (270w)and started a 2ml/ltr dose of plant start Day 6 - Plant has started to recover from being in the dark too long, starting rhizotonic today also at 2ml/l alongside 2ml/l vitalink plantstart. Regularly misting the humidity dome to keep humidity as near 70% as possible (sometimes with rhizotonic spray) Temperature is between 23c and 27c throughout the day. Day 7 - Nothing much to report other than healthy looking seedling, I've been alternating between the COB (330w) and LED (270w) lights throughout the day, have not to wanted to put them both on together incase I fry her :D Tomorrow I'm starting my week 2 and im seriously considering transplanting to my final pot (smart pot) which is a 5gallon/19liter pot... (will seek advice below) and switching from 2ml/ltr vitalink plantstart 2ml rhizotonic schedule to canna A +B 2ml/ltr canna rhizotonic 2ml/ltr.

68 days since my little girl sprouted from seeds🌱 Eleventh week of growing my SUNSET SHERBET AUTOMATIC 🍨🍨🍨 Nutrients: For the POWER BUDS Contest – Zamnesia + Plagron (seeds and nutrients as sponsorship) Nutrients: During this period I only add flushing - Advanced Nutrients Flawless Finish - For plants, rinsing is very important to get rid of pollutants, fertilizer salts, toxins and other harmful substances, so your harvest smells better, tastes better and therefore commands a higher price 😋👌 Advanced Nutrients Flawless Finish is the only product that is completely safe for plants and very effective 💚⭐ Supplement for more efficient flushing of the substrate from fertilizers in the final phase 🌾💓 It contains powerful cleansing ingredients called EDTA along with special ingredients like citric acid 🍋 and magnesium sulfate. It can also be used in case of over-fertilizing the plant 💩 It is also suitable for hydroponics and aeroponics 🌴🌿 -------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- ------- In general: SUNSET SHERBET AUTOMATIC 🍨🍨🍨- The girl's leaves are completely yellow and dying 🍂. I think the girl didn't handle the ph 😥 somehow I couldn't keep it right despite using Biobizz PH regularly- 😕 Her main cola has really grown a lot, she is strong, massive 🏵️🌸. I will definitely harvest it this weekend 💚 Unfortunately I got mosquitoes/Sciaridae dark mold in my tent so I planted yellow sticky rosehips and sprayed the plants with homemade nimbus oil spray which is organic Training: Since the girl grew like this, she doesn't even have many leaves and her branches are automatically shaped the way they are, so no extra training, I just removed some yellow and dead leaves 🌞💚🍂🍂 Buy seeds on Zamnesia Seeds website with discount code: ZAMMIGD2023 - 20% off ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ https://www.zamnesia.com/ 👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆 Light: Mars Hydro TS1000 The plants respond effectively and the light is technically very well managed - I try to have 50 cm between the light and the plants, so I move it up regularly. But with this plant, the gap between the tip and the light is about 5 cm 💡💡💡 Thanks for the likes and you can follow me on X / ❌: @ Targona666 See you soon 😍

This was my first time growing this Wedding Cheesecake Auto strain. It was easy to grow. I will order this strain again.

The little Gorilla Punch might still be the smallest in the tent, but she’s showing real power this week.🥊💪 Her stretch is completely done now, and she’s focusing all her energy on bud and trichome development.🌸✨ The structure looks really good nice spacing between the buds, healthy dark-green color, and no signs of stress or deficiencies.💚 She got one feeding of Orgatrex and the rest of the week only RO water with CalMag. The environment stayed perfectly stable at 24.8°C and 55% RH under the Spider Farmer SE5000, controlled by the AC Infinity AI system.🌡️ She might be compact, but she’s clearly the furthest along in bloom. Bud sites are stacking nicely, and the first trichomes are starting to sparkle, looking promising already 😎🔥

Très bonne semaine, aucun problème de chaleur et hygrométrie au top... Orange sherbet : Toujours aucune différence réel entre les engrais utilisé, 2 des 3 spécimens sont d'une taille gigantesque, l'une dépasse les 65 cm et l'autre est quelques peu plus petite de 3 ou 4 cm 👌. Le 3iem plants que j'ai façonné pour être plus court mais plus dense avec de grosses feuilles bien épaisse, c'est très bien comporté et ne subit pas de réelle stresse face aux techniques utilisées pour créer ce type de résultat (plante basse et massive a la limite du bonsaï 💪), bien sûr le test ici est de voir si ce type de culture pour cette variété est rentable ou non 😉. 2 plants taillé et un plant pincé. Le plant pincé a eu une réaction d'activation de pré-floraison, les deux autres n'ont subit aucun stress dû a la taille 👌. Afghani : Je suis plus que satisfait de mon résultat de fin de croissance pour mes 3 plants, il font une taille resonable de 45 cm et devrait donc si tout est ok avoir une progression en fin de floraison a 120 voir 130 cm 👍. Le plant sous Monster Bud' est plus robuste que les 2 autres, mais reste a voir si en floraison il sera aussi abondant, de plus je crains d'avoir un goût plus suave et acide dû au fait que les engrais organiques reste dans le sol et qu'il devient alors impossible de rincer la plante en fin de période 🤔. 2 plants taillé et un plant pincé... Réaction normal avec l'un ou l'autre mais une légère préférence pour le pinçage plutôt que la taille pour des raisons évidentes de structure. Permanent marker : Très belle structure du tronc, feuillage bien épais et plante travaillé pour rester a niveau des autres variétés. Le plant a été taillé car le tronc est bien large et devrait pouvoir supporter ce type de structure sans trop intervenir dans son maintient... A voir ! Je suis bien déçu de ne pas avoir un deuxième sujets pour tester et faire des comparaisons 😡, si cette variété fait ce qu'elle promet je reprendrai des graines mais chez Zamné (je boycotte Blimburn, pour leur incompétence dans ce domaine). Girl scoot cookies : Toujours ce léger retard qui en fait une plante trop basse, j'ai donc tenté une taille abusive a laquelle elle a très bien réagi 😋. J'ai tout de même surélevé sont pot pour la ramener à hauteur des 2 autres plants. Je vois déjà le résultat que cela vas donner en fin de floraison 😁😁😁... Celà me rappelle mes premiers essais il y a 10 ans ! La plante ce porte très bien et a une amplitude massive dû a ces belles feuilles bien verte et très très épaisse 😊. Elle présente un tronc hors norme et bien agencé dans ça structure, j'ai hâte de voir sont évolution 😁. S.plant : J'ai un faible pour cette plante qui n'a rien a faire ici 😍. Elle est magnifique avec des feuilles extrêmement longue et finement taillé en pointe (Sativa ❤️). Je l'ai taillé car étonnamment elle est restée très basse et a bien entendu donné de très belles branches secondaires avec une levé extraordinaire en 3 jours 👍, c'est comme si elle m'écoutais pour me donner le meilleur d'elle-même 🤩. Vous l'aurez compris c'est devenu la chouchoute 😉. Le plant fait pile poil la taille des autres plants mis sous cette lampe, je ne pouvais pas espérer mieux 👌. Bon ça va être sportif en floraison mais on va s'adapter et si elle me pose problème, je rajouterai deux autres lampes en 400W pour ne pas gâcher 😁. Nous voilà donc en fin de croissance, je voulais prendre 1 semaine de plus mais Orange sherbet en a décidé autrement 🤗, je respecte son choix 😁👌. Zoo, 36 heures dans le blackout total 🤣😂 pour activer la floraison via un léger stresse, je taf a l'ancienne sur cette culture Oui Oui 🤣😂. Bien entendu je ne compte pas ces 36 heures dans ma 1ere semaine de floraison, donc nous aurons un décalage pour le prochain post ✌️. D'ici-là bonne culture a tous 😉.

https://lumatek-lighting.com/ <3 <3 <3 Growers love to you all <3 <3 <3 " Arising from a cross between purple and citrus Cali genetics, Purple Lemonade FF (Fastflowering) offers a complex high made up of perfectly balanced cerebral and body effects that are ideal for daytime use. Expect an extremely enjoyable high that boosts your mood while deeply relaxing your whole body and getting rid of muscle pain. This meticulous cross produces up to 550 g/m2 of some of the most beautiful purple buds, with pinkish and reddish hues that will catch everyone’s attention. The beautiful purple buds are ready for harvest in 7-8 weeks and come hand-in-hand with unbelievably sugary citrus terps that are just as refreshing as a cold lemonade on a hot Summer day. It’s the ideal variety for the sweet-tooth stoner seeking strains that deliver both in quality and quantity of resin. Bud Description Purple Lemonade FF grows chunky, spade-shaped buds that boast a whole range of pinkish-purple hues with rich, dark orange pistils shooting out of every direction. This variety stands out for the, oftentimes, lilac trichomes that give them a gorgeous pink tint and make for outstanding purple concentrates. The buds give off a delicious tart lemon aroma that reveals a sweeter, more fruity scent as you break the buds open. Definitely a must for flavor chasers and those looking for pungent terpene profiles. Smoke Reports Purple Lemonade FF offers an effect that’s just as unique as the flavor. Expect a potent uplifting high that gives you that energy boost you need to get things done while 100% happy and stress-free. The effect gradually transforms into a wave that works its way along the limbs and through the muscles, deeply relaxing your body and putting you in the right mindset to go through a busy day with a huge smile on your face. This is an excellent all-day smoke as it not only increases energy but can also help combat chronic pain, migraine and stress. Plant Appearance This feminized photoperiod variety develops a thick and strong structure, growing a medium-sized main cola with multiple shorter side branches, typical of hybrid strains. Purple Lemonade FF develops fairly short internodal spacing with gorgeous purple buds growing stacked on top of each other, making it the perfect choice for growers of all levels looking to get lots and lots of top-shelf purple weed, as this variety can produce up to 550 g/m2 in a 7-8 week flower cycle. Grow Tips This is a super fast feminized photoperiod version that takes approximately 7-8 weeks to flower with a 5-week vegetation cycle,, this means you can have faster harvests by shortening the veg cycle or have a longer veg cycle for bigger yields. Purple Lemonade FF (Fastflowering) makes for a great candidate for growers of all levels as it’s a vigorous strain that will thrive with basic maintenance both indoors and outdoors. This is a resin powerhouse so make sure to have your trim bin close by as all the resinous sugar leaves will make for the most mouth-watering hash and extracts. Flavor Expect a long-lasting citrus zest that taste just like it smells. Purple Lemonade FF reeks of a delicious blend of sweet fruits and tart citrus that’ll make your mouth water. On the inhale, expect sour flavors that taste just like lemon candy with hints of orange and a really subtle earthy background. And on the exhale, the citrus flavors open up, giving place to a more sugary berry fruitiness that leaves your whole mouth tasting like an extremely sweet weed-infused lemonade.

The harvest was simple and an absolute pleasure. I did a wet trim and thought later maybe i should have did a dry trim? Please share your opinions.

End of week 5, repoted this week, can't wait to see how they grow in these pots! I installed a heater and the temperatures are much better now. Only watering for now, was watering with just a little water before transplanting. The big pots I watered weekly with ~2L water and spraying the top layer every now and then to keep it moist. I gave a little more water today as they moisture probe was telling that it was still dry after 2L. So ended up watering each pot 4.5L of water with the plan of not watering for another 7 days. I think all this much is affecting how much water is flowing down (or my probe is broken :D ) We have an aloe vera plant which I am cutting leaves from and squeezing some gel out into the water. Hopefully they will get over whatever caused these drooping leaves quickly. They seem to be on the mend.
