As you can see, the Melonade Runtz hermied again... Mystery Made 2 also started but I already had the feeling this is going to happen, since everything inside this tent hermied. The first runs I threw in the trash (besides the one King's Juice survivor, you can see my diary on as well) but I now needed some weed and I had the little hope that MAYBE if I keep plugging the male parts off, that she eventually turns full female. I saw that in one of Hyperactive Highs videos and just gave full dedication into it, controlling every single day. I really spent hours into this but as you can also see, the Melonade Runtz was the frostiest out of the bunch, so I really didn't throw her away! On the bright sight: I managed to achieve quite an even canopy for now. They also shouldn't stretch too crazy from here on out

been doing some topping as the plant grows trying to spread the canopy along with trimming off the large fan leaves near the bottom not get much light. power flower is about 5 inch tall I've been letting the plants grow to the lights and haven't been seeing any issues so far. Power Flower has the 1000W @ 15" away from the top Holy Punch has the 600W @ 6" away from the top

Diaries updated daily so please check back! Welcome to day 1 of week 4 aka day 22 since breaking ground. Nesia continues to impress, being by far the most advanced plant for her age that I have grown so far. I am very excited for this week in particular. She is following Karen's pattern exactly, except without the three week bad start. By the end of this week I expect she will be 50cm in diameter at least. Day 22.5: Performed LST on secondary nodes. Day 23.5: Fertigated. Adjusted pot and added risers. Performed some brutal LST. She's growing almost completely horizontal now. My plan is to train her around the pot circumference. She's currently about where Karen was at the end of week 5. She is consistently 10-11 days ahead of Karen so far. Exciting. Brutal LST honestly I'm basically torturing her at this point. Day 23.75: Fertigated 3l Day 24: Nesia has put on a lot of foliage growth in the last 24h. I am noticing a pattern here with defoliating, it seems that the plants seem to alternate between focusing on foliage growth and focusing on height. I am starting to think regular defoliation may reduce internode distance and stretching. I am going to test this theory a bit by letting both Nesia and Misty grow a bit now before I further LST the primary node. Removed a few fan leaves. Day 26: Reconfigured tent. See video. Nesia now has more light. Incidentally, I believe I have now corrected the Magnesium deficiency, colour is looking great, growth accelerating rapidly. I did say this would be an even bigger week than last and it is certainly shaping up that way. Fertigated 2l. Day 27: Performed major LST and minor defoliation. Nesia is really growing well. She fills the big pot already. I severaly pruned the companion plants to make room for Nesia. I also reorganised the tents and configuration again while installing upgrades. New reflector. Much bigger carbon filter. Airflow and light both increased and optimised. See video. Day 28: Nesia has responded quite strongly to the LST and defoliation yesterday. Nesia has not been watered for 48h. I am doing a short "dry spell" for all the plants. End of week summary: Well what a great week for Nesia. She hid a lot of her growth under massive leaves until the LST on day 27. I was pretty hard with her, and I aslo defoliated. She saved us a big surprise for the end of the week. Can you believe the response 24h later? That is quite shockingly good adaptation. I am certain that the reason she responds so strongly, is because by now, the end of week 4, she is well used to this regular process. Every time I have done LST and/or defoliation she has responded quicker and more vigorously. Nesia is going to far, far exceed Karen in size if she keeps up at this rate. Overall I couldn't be much more pleased with Nesia. She is an absolute star and I am already thinking a possible future diary of the month winner. I have been extremely impressed with Fast Buds genetics so far.

Cant take my eyes off my plant. This is my second round of growing and I am the type of person who learns through failure (not gonna upload the pics of the first round plants lol). The buds are thickening up very nicely. Hoping to get between 3-4oz , the strain is high yielding but I have a smaller tent. My auto yielded 2oz with the same space (2 plants in one tent splitting the space), but the buds definitely didn't develop as well as these buds.

The plant is still going strong, but I noticed that the colors have faded a bit. Not necessarily a bad thing, though—I realized the temperature difference between day and night was a bit too extreme, which probably caused unnecessary stress. It did look absolutely stunning with those colorful leaves, but stability is more important now.🌱 Other than that, everything is going great! The buds are getting thicker, stinkier, and completely covered in frost.😍 The dominant smell is still pink pepper, which is really interesting. Sometimes I get a hint of something sweet, but I’m not sure yet if it will develop more over time.💚

Day 21: So we are currently in day 21, I finished all my work for my growroom. They where pushed into flowering 5 days ago. They always need to settle first before even turning into that stage. So my gues that in the end of the next week we will start to see the first indicators. I still gave them veg nutrients this week since they are still in growing stage. I did notice that many plants have weak stems and where sloppy underneeth. Didn't liked that, so in order to have thicker stems and branches I decided to top all the plants ( not showing in these picutues, i did that after making the pictures) Topping your plants will create stronger thick stems and branches! Also removed the first 1-2 internodes on each branch. I kept 5 or 7 branches each plant. I can't remember the ''science'' behind it but I have been told that many years ago by fellow OG Dutch growers and Family members. Anyway It is importend to have uneven branches. So 5, 7 or even 9 but never 6 or 8. Normaly I would have loved a huge main cola and it is known by many amnesia growers to not top the plants because they make beautifull thick main colas. On the other hand, when having this much plants on each m2, it will create weak stems and branches. I rather have strong plants with thick stems and branches to transport all nutrients properly and not breaking when having buds on them or having to mayor support them. The leafs, stems and branches look fine to me. No stress or deficiencies. 1/3 of them like to drink thought which is a good thing but it really enjoying. Now I have to weigh by lifting the pots which one needs more or less feedings lol. Instead of giving them all like 5 seconds of water. Might show you guys my feeding ''barrel'' next week. It is a 250L one. Untill next week.

Week 4 Report: White OG – Bigger Roots, Bigger Heights! 🌟 What a week for our White OG! 🌱 She’s had an epic milestone week with her first transplant into a larger pot and her first topping at node 7. Each step has been about preparing her for greatness, and she’s taken everything in stride. Let’s dive into the details of her journey this week and why these steps are so important for her development. The Transplant: New Home, New Opportunities 🌿 The first big move of the week was upgrading her from her small pot to a bigger pot with a perfect blend of soil and nutrients to fuel her next stage of growth. Soil Choice: PRO-MIX HP Mycorrhizae + Bacillus This premium soil mix is a grower’s best friend, designed to give plants a perfect foundation. Here’s why I chose it: • High Porosity (HP): Promotes excellent drainage and aeration, preventing overwatering and ensuring roots have access to oxygen. • Mycorrhizae: These beneficial fungi form a symbiotic relationship with the plant’s roots, increasing water and nutrient uptake while improving overall root health and vigor. • Bacillus Subtilis: A powerful beneficial bacterium that helps protect against soil pathogens, enhances nutrient absorption, and boosts overall plant resilience. This mix creates an optimal environment for strong, healthy roots to develop, setting the stage for explosive vegetative growth. Aptus Holland All-in-One Pellets: Nutrient Perfection To supercharge the soil, I incorporated Aptus Holland All-in-One Pellets into the mix. These pellets are a complete slow-release nutrient solution that ensures consistent feeding over time. • Key Benefits: • Long-lasting nutrient release (up to 2-3 months). • Contains macro and micronutrients essential for steady, balanced growth. • Supports microbial activity in the soil, further boosting nutrient availability. • Easy to use and prevents nutrient burn. By combining Pro-Mix HP with Aptus Pellets, she’s getting the best of both worlds: a thriving microbiome and consistent nutrition to fuel her development. The Topping: Encouraging Bushier Growth 🌱✂️ At the end of the week, I decided it was time for her first topping—a critical training technique to shape her growth structure. I chose to top her at node number 7, leaving a solid foundation for future growth. What Is Topping? Topping involves cutting off the plant’s main growing tip to encourage it to grow multiple main colas (branches). This redirects energy from vertical growth to lateral (side) growth, creating a bushier, more productive plant. Why Topping Matters: 1. Maximizes Yield: By encouraging more colas, the plant can produce more flowers during the flowering stage. 2. Improves Light Penetration: A bushier plant allows light to reach more leaves and nodes, improving overall growth. 3. Encourages Even Canopy: Topping helps create a flat, even canopy, which is ideal for maximizing light distribution. The timing of topping is crucial, and at node 7, she’s strong enough to handle the stress while still early enough to recover quickly and focus on lateral growth. Environment and Feeding Routine: Consistency Is Key 🌟 This week, the environment has stayed perfect for her needs: • Temperature: Warm and steady, promoting steady vegetative growth. • Humidity: Still high to support root development post-transplant. • Lighting: The Future of Grow (FOG) LED continues to shine now at 300 PPFD, delivering just the right intensity for compact, strong growth. Nutrient-wise, we stuck with the reliable Aptus Holland lineup: • Regulator (0.15 ml/L): Strengthening her structure and managing stress from the transplant and topping. • CalMag Boost (0.25 ml/L): Supporting chlorophyll production and preventing deficiencies. • All-in-One Liquid (1 ml/L): Providing her with balanced, immediate nutrients to complement the slow-release pellets. • Start Booster (0.25 ml/L): Encouraging her roots to keep pushing deeper and stronger. Looking Ahead: Building on a Strong Foundation Next week, I’ll be watching for her recovery from topping and monitoring how she adjusts to her new pot and nutrient-rich soil. I’m expecting explosive growth as she settles into her new environment and gets ready for the big stages ahead!

Info: Unfortunately, I had to find out that my account is used for fake pages in social media. I am only active here on growdiaries. I am not on facebook instagram twitter etc All accounts except this one are fake. Flowering day 43 since time change to 12/12 h. Hey guys :-) The buds are developing really well :-). They slowly get thicker and thicker and smell better and better the closer we get to the end :-). She has completely stopped the stretch in order to transport the remaining energy into the buds 👍. This week it was poured 3 times with 1 l each time (See table above for nutrient addition). In the coming weeks, the nutrients will be reduced more and more. The tent was cleaned and everything checked. Fresh osmosis water has been treated for the past few weeks. have fun with the update.
