4/15/25 Things are progressing nicely. Some plants dont seem to be doing too much but 3 of them or so that are really standing out. Im curious if some of these are going to be longer flowering time than anticipated with the very obvious sativa dominant plants.

Day 28: Welcome to week 5 start , the ladies are killing it in the house !!!!. These strains are amazing growers all round. While building the framework for their flowering period they responded well and agreed to stay put with a bit of tying down and supercropping. Since that point and flipping to flower , they set off sending every possible budlet to the canopy top. I felt bad stripping so many hopefuls out and reduced their numbers quite a bit all round. The remaining buds are the most stacked and lonely to be worthy of drying. FFT#1 Looked a little sparse after her strip with not too many mains to show for her age but the last few days have changed my concerns as she has put it all into the others rapidly. Bud stacking is nice and close but I have left some of the skinny stacks on the outer edge to fill out too.She needs the help !. FFT#5 is showing #1 how to force your way into the best position !!!. It is a nice sized plant for a limited height grow room. The training of these is a must if your per plant yield is to be achieved in my opinion. She has responded perfectly to the lst and bending and her lower framework has produced a lot of very workable mains. FFT#7 Still continues to be the biggest in the house and is looking very tightly stacked. Like #5 , she has some chunky little buds to create baseball bat colas. The main stem at the soil is so thick and bulbous now that I will need a chainsaw for harvesting. They are all producing frost and oil when rubbed a little and there are distinctive smells between them that are familiar and range from fruity to sour ish diesels. Seeing their size now with another possible 4weeks to go at least , 2 of which will be bud swelling weeks , fills me with hope of a great harvest from these winning genetics . I will be a buyer of these strains when released without a doubt. Roll on the other 9 to try out. Until next week , stay safe and sane , enjoy the family/Home time.

Three weeks to go on this Herercane. I’ll be running straight 0-0-4 for the last two weeks and one week of R/O. Cheers

All plants are showing exemplary vigor, evidenced by their vibrant green color and the rapid upward orientation of new tops toward the light immediately following the procedures. The Bruce Banners are responding perfectly to topping and LST, maintaining strong leaf turgor and dynamically expanding their lateral branching in the 25L pots.

23.2.25: I watered with approximately 1.5 ltrs per plant. I mix 6.5ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4. This time, I only added Ecothrive Biosys to the water because I have just top dressed the soil. Adding anything extra right now would probably be overkill and result in toxicity from too many available nutrients. I defoliated minimally mostly Do-sì-dos, Watermelon, and Pink Mist. Due to the scrog net, it's about all I can reach 😅 I've moved the plants to increase space for Gorilla Cookies 🍪 and Bubble

Going good this week. Really packing on the buds now. Added some more nutrients that I now have kicking around for a hydro grow. Plant 6 was transplanted last week as I thought it may have been having some issues. I pulled off all the yellow leafs and it seems to be alright. Just glad it’s still kicking. Question: Should I be pulling leaves off my other plants? There’s a few covering up lower bud sites but I’m unsure how it’ll effect my auto flowers. Question: Wondering when to harvest these bad boys. Trichomes don’t appear amber yet. Website for the seeds say 70-90 days seed to harvest. I’m wondering if I can push it to 90 days (13 weeks(ish)) even if they appear ready at 70. Will that effect my harvest?

Week 12, Day 83 from seed and 3rd day of flower.....The 5 day of this week officially marked the start of the flowering season!! So I flushed both of these bad boys with ph'd water for two days and then today I switched them to 12/12. I gave them their first dose of bloom nutrients and then lollipoped them as you can see, pixs . Grateful no issues to report for the past 3 weeks have been trouble-free!! I'm going to leave the MH bulb in for an additional 2 weeks to prevent any stretching before switching to the HPS. But so far they are still loving their environment. I'm also in the process of keeping clones of fat banana and hulkberry while i try this new strain of Peanut Butter Tree.

Week 11 - Strawberry Gorilla Auto what a beautiful plant. This has to some of the best flower I’ve ever smelled in my life hands down. The smell is exactly like a Strawberry Donut. To be able to mix a strain to make it smell like this is truly mind blowing. My first grow is growing better than ever ! I’m going to let the pot dry another day. Then it will sit in 48hrs of darkness before I karate chop them. Happy growing everyone and good luck !

The indoor plants are developing a mobile nutrient deficiency(newer growth is pulling from older leaves)in the lower leaves. Nutrients are being locked out(too much of one nutrient is locking out the others in the soil, or temperatures are too cold in the soil) or they are being tied up in solution whenever I mix the lotus nutrients(I’m adding bloom and boost into the same gallon, so maybe the chemicals are reacting with each other and becoming unavailable to the plant). On top of my nutrient dilemma, fungus gnats have found their way to my moist soil and are being a nuisance. From what I found they’re surviving off of my woody material in the soil and will soon try to establish it as a home so I’ve got to go get some IPM. Outdoors is vibing with the pest pressure so I’ll continue to let it do it’s thing.

Week 9 Veg – White OG 🌿🔥 “The Topping Madness Begins” Welcome back, fellow growers, to another wild chapter in the White OG road trip! 🚐💨 This week, it’s all about structure, training, and control—or should I say, complete madness? Because, my friends, I went full throttle with the toppings! Did I count them? No. Did I stop to think about it? Also no. I just let my instincts take over, snipping away like a sculptor carving a masterpiece! 🏆 My vision? A massive, wide, fierce bush—one that will command attention and demand respect in the grow tent! With each topping, the lower branches gain strength, new nodes emerge, and the canopy expands like an explosion of green energy. 💡 Why top so much? • Forces the plant to spread wide instead of growing tall. • Encourages equal light distribution to all sites. • Increases potential flower sites for a bigger yield. • Strengthens stems & structure to support those future fat buds! This is plant architecture at its finest, and I’m here for it. 😎 Nutrients & Water – Keeping It Clean & Simple I’m still riding the clean wave with Aptus Holland Clean Mineral Line, and it’s keeping this girl in top form. 💎🌊 Feed Schedule: ✅ Regulator – The silica magic keeping her strong, flexible, and stress-resistant. ✅ RO Water Conditioner – Pure hydration, setting the perfect stage for nutrient absorption. ✅ All-in-One Liquid – The full package, giving her everything she needs in one smooth delivery. 📊 Readings: 📏 pH: 6.03 (Let’s call it 6.0, perfection in balance) ⚡ EC: 1.12 (Precision feeding, steady and strong) This plant is drinking like a beast now, and I love watching her transformation! Her color is deepening, the growth is picking up speed, and she’s responding to the training better than expected. ⸻ 💡 Grow Conditions – The Perfect Playground Under the FOG LED, every leaf is catching that perfect spectrum of light, while the TrolMaster keeps everything dialed in. The environment remains stable, and this girl is flourishing. 🔹 Temperature & RH: Same steady balance, keeping the plant happy & stress-free. 🔹 Airflow: Increasing to keep her breathing fresh & growing strong. 🔹 Defoliation: Light trims to expose lower growth & keep airflow optimal. ⸻ 📢 A Big Shoutout to the Whole Squad None of this would be possible without the dream team behind the scenes! 🙌 Much love to: 🔥 Seedsman Seeds – For this legendary strain that just keeps impressing me. 🔥 Aptus Holland – Keeping her nutritionally dialed in and thriving. 🔥 TrolMaster & Future of Grow LED – Precision control & lighting for the ultimate environment. 🔥 PRO-MIX Soil – The living foundation fueling these roots! 🔥 Cannakan, Grow Diaries & The Community – For all the love, support & passion we share. And of course… huge respect to YOU, whether you’re here to learn, cheer, hate, or just be curious—this space is for everyone! 🎤🔥 ⸻ 📣 Join the Journey! 🚀 This week, I’m launching something new & exciting over on Instagram, and I want all of you to be part of it! 🎥💚 So hit me up, let’s connect, and keep pushing the plant love movement forward! 💬 How do you train your plants? Topping, LST, super cropping?
