Week 5 flower. This one just grows slow. Slowly filling in. Very frosty, but not a nice smell. Hopefully the flowers end up tight, hard, and smelling great. Lights are at 12-14” from canopy, and plants are taking it well. Blumat drip still working, and hand watering once a week with Gaia Soluble Seaweed Extract 0-0-17. Not going to top dress anymore as these 30 gallon pots have lots to offer still and this plant is using nothing really. Thanks for views!

The Terps are developing to be insane on this one! I'm getting notes of Black Cherry, Fruit Punch, some Superboof citrussyness and sum funky fuel. Very sweet almost bubblegummy! One of the craziest Terps profiles I've ever grown! Nugs aren't crazy dense, they're airy and light. Spear shaped nugs but absolutely packing on frost for it only being week 5, I am more then blown away with this grow I am without a doubt packing my next grow with these Homegrown Genetics ! Look forward to growing more of this fantastic breeder and very happy I was taken in to become a tester for these wonderful genetics. Proof is in the pudding these are sum bangers. Terps are off the charts compared to my Grape Sour Diesel which is a bit behind in terms of maturing

All 3 plants are looking healthy and occasionally even look happy when I'm not stretching their limbs out all over the place 😒 Not alot of progress on their height but they look like they're doing alright so I'm not gonna worry too much yet, I could really do with these being nice and short so I don't have to mess about raising the shelf up 🙄 That's all for the moment, just watering and moving the branches out, it's nearly flowering time 🎄 Happy growing everyone, take it easy 😎🌿 30th October All 3 plants are doing well and responding nicely to the lst, every day I move a bud site away more and new ones just keep popping up all over the place 🌿 not alot of vertical growth which is fine by me just don't know if that'll negatively impact my yield 😕 but they're more than likely getting ready to shoot up 🌱

hola colegas , 6 semanas desde el cambio a 12/12 , las nena siguen bien amarillando algunas hojas por falta de nitrigeno me imagino , instale los tutores que me faltaban a las 5 nenas que no lo tenian , EXHALE CO2 es una bomba 100% recomendado. tienen un olor muy rico que al empezar a subir la escalera del segundo piso se siente el buquetazo , segun yo voy bien , cada vez queda menos para la cosecha y eso me deja muy feliz , ya quiero que llegue ese dia , el ultimo riego con fertilizantes que hice no use la base (top bloom ) y la verdad respondieron bastante bien las plantitas , saludos a tod@s de esta gran comunidad y pagina , grow diaries ,me encanta. pueden ver el avanze de mis nenas por instagram tambien , abrazos y que esto no pare .

We’re officially in the final week for my Strawberry Gorilla Automatic from Fast Buds! 🌟 This beautiful girl has had a very quick flowering phase, but looking at the trichomes, they’re right where they need to be so no complaints! She will be flushed throughout this week and then harvested and hung up to dry next week. I’m super happy with how she’s developed!😋

Day 17F-24F (Day 19) Man it’s such a shame that bbb#1 stunted out. It was so damn vigorous until it’s most recent feeding. I will make sure to cut back on teas next round as they can be a wild card sometimes. All 5 plants are packing on some serious early frost. But I’m not seeing too much chunk to the buds yet. My other grow that was flipped on the same day has almost no frost yet so that’s a good sign. (Day 21) Big strip today. I will pull off as many leaves as I need to ensure nearly all bud sites are exposed to adequate light. I’m still seeing excess N so I’m going to water in 2 gallons each until I get some runoff. The plants seem to be up taking water pretty decently so I’m going to push it a little with a heavier watering. Wow do the plants look amazing after that strip and flush! Everything is praying up beautifully, including #3 in the back. Let’s hope that gets it back on track now. (Day 22) I want to give a PK boost but all my bloom nutrients have way too much N and I don’t really want to risk it toxing anymore. I could give it a little bit of 0-18-0 bat guano and some 0-0-15 kelp extract but it could be completely unnecessary. I can’t see any signs of deficiencies but a small surplus couldn’t hurt either. (Day 23) I like how the ladies responded to the thorough watering. I will up my watering to 1 gallon every 48 hours from now on. It sucks to see how short bbb#1 is. I was expecting such a huge stretch but it never came because of that fucking tea! I should have leached the medium as soon as I saw stunting. It’s too bad because it definitely had the most potential for yield. (Day 24) I’m starting to think the main problem with bud size this round is all the topping I did early on. Not to mention they were vegging for nearly 3 months. I will try to pick off most of the larf before it wastes anymore energy. I think the ideal style of growing for bud size and veg time is a semi sea of green, or 6-8 plants per 25 square feet. I’m not a big fan of these giant plants as it’s a lot of wasted veg time and smaller bud size overall. The smell is really ramping up!

Hello hello again! Starting Week 9 with again some flashlight nighttime shots because i fell in love with that. Growwise, theres nothing much to report. I keep everything more or less the same. Watering 2,5L after 5 Days, usually i had a pretty good 4 day rhythm going but last time they had a tad too much runoff so i decided to let her dry out for a day more. they liked that, back to the usual thirstiness. Nutes changed a bit (grow up from 2 to 2.5, bloom up from 3 to 3.2) but thats just because i did an oopsie. PH stays 6.5 in, 6.2 out. Trichomes i will check later. Pistils are still to white and they dont look ready yet, but its fun taking closeup pictures, so there you go. Other than that, ill skip my usual ramblings about how i love these, you all know that by now :) *Added Trichomes, daytime shots and timelapse at the end of week 9, until next week, happy growing! :

This grow went well overall. No herming. No nutrient deficiencys. Can't complain there. However the bud structure wasn't there. And the smell isn't of strawberry sugar or at least during the grow. It's mostly gas with a little sweetness. No real strawberry so far.

I posted the video with music and then the whole video that shows the Z-up at the end. Frostbanger, purple haze, and test strain fba2504 are flowering beautifully. The Z-up is just now in the early flowering stage and she is doing fantastic!

🌿 Permanent Marker – Pheno #1 | Harvest Report (Part 1) (Week 13 From Seed / Week 9 Flower — The Tall Mama’s Story) ⸻ 🌟 A Gentle Apology To Start… Before diving into this week’s update, I want to offer a small apology to everyone following this diary. Because of the new file limitations, I once again had to divide the harvest and trim documentation into separate weeks. This pheno was massive, and naturally… she produced an unbelievable amount of media — photos, videos, details from every angle. So to avoid losing anything, here is Part 1 of her harvest story. Thank you for your understanding, and thank you to GrowDiaries for continuing to improve the platform. 💚 ⸻ 🌸 Harvest – Pheno #1 (The One Who Aimed for the Moon) If Pheno #2 was compact elegance, then Pheno #1 was pure cosmic energy. From the moment she started stretching, she refused to stop — tall, powerful, expressive, and full of character. And in the end? She delivered 249 grams of dry, cured, beautifully aromatic medicine. A true queen. What defined her: • Thick, dense, resin-rich buds • Rich coloration during late flower • Loud aroma that filled the dry room • A structure that felt sculpted rather than grown Even though she stretched to the stars, her bud formation was surprisingly compact and tight, even tighter than her sister’s. Different phenos, different personalities — and both extraordinary. ⸻ Drying & Trim (Narrative Summary) Pheno #1 followed the same journey as her sister: – harvested whole – hung as a complete plant – left to dry naturally in stable conditions – trimmed entirely by hand with scissors and fingers – every bud selected and shaped with care – stored and cured properly in Grove Bags Her weight settled at 249 grams after cure — clean, stable, fragrant. During trimming and curing, her personality truly revealed itself: Floral elements, deep sweetness, that unmistakable Permanent Marker sharpness, and an intensity that promises beautiful experiences. The volume of resin was immediately noticeable — sticky fingers and loud aromas from the moment the scissors touched her. ⸻ 🌈 Aroma & Expression Even before final cure, she was exploding with character: – louder terpenes than expected – thick resin presence – bold colors in late flower translating into rich tones in the final buds – beautifully clean burn and expressive flavors She truly embodies the lineage she comes from. ⸻ 🌿 Why This Update Is Split Simply put: she was huge — and I documented everything. With GrowDiaries’ new upload restrictions, it’s safer to do this in two parts than to risk losing files halfway. Part 2 will come next week, with the remaining photos, videos, and impressions from her drying and curing evolution. ⸻ 🏆 Dognabis Cup – A Little Reminder The Dognabis Cup continues beautifully. Growers are posting diaries, sharing updates, and supporting each other. If you haven’t checked them out yet, I invite you — the links are already added in the diary. Cup Deadline: January 31st Plenty of time, no rush, grow at your own rhythm and enjoy the process. This Cup is about joy, honesty, community, and celebration — not pressure. ⸻ 💚 Gratitude & Community A huge thank you, from the heart, to: Zamnesia Seeds, Ocogenectica Seeds, Aptus Holland, ThinkGrow, Future of Grow, Skunk Magazine, FOG, GroveBags, DaggaDNA, Popeyes Passion, Imperial Seeds, TrolMaster And to everyone who follows this journey — the supporters, the critics, the lovers, the haters, the curious ones, the passionate ones. Every one of you adds something to this space. ⸻ 🌟 Closing Line “Some phenos grow toward the light, some stay close to the earth — but each one teaches us something about patience, beauty, and ourselves.” Come join me on Discord, Instagram, and visit the Cup diaries — the links are already attached there for you.
