Hey yall, Temps were high, but under control now. My girls were droopy despite having moist soil. After a good compost tea they bounced right back. Pistol hairs are showing, haven't grown this specific cultivar before so the bud structure is a but different than others I am familiar with. Let's see what she does moving forward. I am not a super fan of these genetics. Already have new seeds I am ready to start once these ladies are done. Over all the Strawberry Diesel from Beaver Seeds is not a noob grow, you need to have your grow dialed in. And really be careful with PM. I am keeping humidity as low as I cam while still maintaining a decent VPD. Challenges with this strain definitely turns me off. Looking forward to a new cultivar, already have some genetics from Michigan, those cats are really something else, they are hellbent on being better than the West coast. And they are in my humble opinion 😌 ☺️ Pure Michigan looks good, also Honey Sticks Genetics out of Maine is killing it, their Bananaconda 4 tested over 40% total cannabinoids. They want like 3k per cut, so that won't be my next, but looking forward to new genetics nonetheless. Anyways made some new ferments, remember to use equal parts organic sugar, Jaggery is best, that is the closest form of sugar to the sugar cane plant. Cover with paper towel, 2 to 3 days later let gravity give you all that juice, don't squeeze it to get more. Keep that juice in the fridge, that is your food. Then add water to the solids and keep at room temperature for 3 months to make a vinegar. That is your cleanser. Ask questions please 🙏 Love to see others trying KNF, or simply put Natural Farming methods.

. Vorwort: Woche 3 war anstrengend. Ich musste die Pflanzen mehrfach runtertrainieren, bis es bei zwei schließlich knack gemacht hat nicht schlimm, aber auch nicht schön. Die Mädels sind kräftiger als gedacht, meine Trainingssticks dagegen zu schwach. Nächstes Mal stabilere Tools. Trotz Stress: Wachstum top, Energie stimmt. Run läuft. 🌿 Tag 14–21 - Trainingstage und Trotzreaktionen Diese Woche war kein Spaziergang. Wir wurden getoppt, gebogen, gedrückt, gezähmt. Der Gärtner nennt es „Training“, wir nennen es Yoga mit leichten Gewaltspuren. Ich, Banana Purple Punch, war natürlich die Erste. „Kräftig genug für die Spannung“, hat er gesagt. Zwei Tage später, knack. Nichts Dramatisches, aber genug, um mir Respekt einzuflößen. Ich hab mich aufgerappelt, Stiel gestreckt, Blätter neu sortiert. Tut kurz weh, dann fühlt man sich nur stärker. 🍌 Und ich, Purple Haze, bekam mein Training gleich nach Banana. Ein kurzer, unsanfter Moment, ein Riss und dann dieses leise Summen, wenn die Energie sich neu verteilt. Ich nahm’s gelassen, wie immer. „Jede Wunde ist ein Wendepunkt“, dachte ich, während meine Seitentriebe entschlossen ans Licht drängten. Wir beiden Lemon Cherry Cookies hatten es ruhiger. Eine von uns durfte erst Tag 20 ran, die andere Tag 21. Genug Zeit, um zu beobachten, wie Banana fluchte und Purple leuchtete. Als es dann soweit war, liefen unsere Sessions fast schon geschmeidig. Kein Knack, kein Drama, nur langsames Beugen und tiefes Durchatmen. 🍋🍒 Tag 16: 2 Liter Wasser mit Dünger, Licht auf 70 %. Tag 20: Licht hoch auf 80 %. Tag 21: Boden noch feucht, Stimmung konzentriert. Kleine Blessuren hier und da, aber das Team steht. Unsere Blätter sind kräftig, die Farben satt, das Wachstum stabil. Die Energie im Zelt hat sich verändert weniger unschuldiges Sprießen, mehr zielgerichtete Kraft. Wir wissen jetzt, was es heißt, geformt zu werden.

The LSD25’s are doing pretty well! They’ve stayed short and stalky but their buds seem to be filling out nice and dense. Two of the lsd’s were suffering a slight nitrogen and phosphorus deficiency. I’m not too worried about it since it is somewhat natural for this to happen during this part of their life cycle. I gave them a nice dose of bloom nutrients and so far they seem to be really enjoying their food. A day after the feed they bulked up quite a bit and the trichromes became much more visible to the naked eye. Regardless of my initial issues with my medium and original ph pen, I am pleased with these girls so far. The scent and aroma coming off of the plants is nothing like I’ve smelt before. Almost every bud site releases a different terp/aromatic profile when touched. It’s an interesting smell the notes/terp profile I get from it is; musk (mycerene), lemon (limonene), peppery/herbal (caryophyllene) and slight lavender (linalool) type scent. I’m not used to smelling this many different profiles from one strain but I must say that the smell is almost addicting!

These tiny, glistening structures aren't just eye candy; they're the heart of the matter. Trichomes are like nature's jewelry, sparkling with resinous elegance. And guess what? They're not just about looks. These beauties are the treasure troves of cannabinoids, terpenes, and other compounds that make your plant a powerhouse of goodness. Colors and Aromas: A Symphony of Abundance As we dive into this purple symphony, let's take a moment to appreciate the colors. It's not just about visual appeal; those shades of purple are like whispers from the plant itself. They tell a story of cool nights, warm days, and the dance of chlorophyll and anthocyanin. And the aromas? They're a melodic overture to the flavors that await, a sensory adventure that will delight the senses. Buds of Grandeur: Embrace the Beauty Size, my friends, is a matter of grandeur in this garden. The buds have grown into mammoth proportions, dripping with resinous promises. Each nugget is like a tiny universe, a world of wonders waiting to be explored. It's a testament to our care, a tribute to the nurturing journey we've embarked upon. Celebrating Nature's Artistry: A Glimpse Within And now, as the sun sets on this week's chapter, here's a snapshot from the heart of the grow room. Feast your eyes upon the breathtaking sight of my Purple Lemonade FF, standing tall and proud amidst her leafy companions. It's a sight that encapsulates the joy of cultivation, the artistry of nature, and the wonders we've unlocked together. Embrace the Journey, Savor the Beauty As we venture onward, let's continue to embrace the journey and savor every moment. The trichomes, the colors, the growth—it's all a reflection of our dedication. With every leaf we nurture and every bud we tend, we're cultivating more than just plants; we're cultivating a connection to the heart of nature. Thank you for joining me on this awe-inspiring voyage. Until the next chapter unfolds, keep those hearts and plants thriving!

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.

Hey mates, I'm happy with my first grow. I'm learning so much. Day 29: I'm looking like a hypochondriac, but for the plants, all I see I think it's a disease. Now I'm seem the older leaves getting yellowing, and gotting some brown/dark spots and saw little flies walking at the soil, I've googled it and can be fungus gnats, what I'm supposed to do? About the pH: I never measured the pH cause I'm using the pH Perfect products of Advanced Nutrients and they say you dont know care about this. But I've started to use mineral water, to see if have some difference. Obvious the mineral water is more puriest and clear than the tap water. Lets see. Day 30: I've did the defoliation on all seeds, but on Seed 2 and 3 I've just removed dead or yellow/brown leaves, and at the Seed 1 I've removed the most of fan leaves, leaving two or three at max. Day 34: I'm happy with these girls, Seed 3 I've did not LST and she have 49cm, Seed 2 I've did a soft LST and she have 45cm and 3 main colas, Seed 3 I've did a more little harder LST and she has only 33cm and I think has 4 or 5 main colas, I really dont know the exact number cause one of them is a little lower than the 4 others.

Well I’m a bit behind here. I left out of town for a few days and come back to some issues. Issue 1: Overwatered Issue 2: Light went bad and wasn’t producing enough to give my babies what they wanted. They stretched and didn’t actually Grow any bigger just taller. They was very weak and was almost like a noodle. I had a old 600w burple light that did the job. I tested UVs and she was still producing like a champ, she just gets warm. Issue 3: Mfing PEST. I noticed in my soil to what I thought might of been beneficial mites, I was wrong. After some great knowledge from GD pros come to find out it’s Baby Gnats. Found some organic DIATOMACEOUS EARTH garden safe. I had to transplant my babies already but only went to a little bit bigger pot and not the final one. Burying the stem, and left watering. My soil was moist enough to feed during transplant obviously bc their doing a lot better. I’m applying my DE to the dry soil and to help prevent any issues im going to do a straight 6.5 water feed from the bottom. Just applying the water to my tray and letting them go get it. I’m hoping the DE clears the bugs up and I can get these girls back on the right track. Lowered the RH to help fight off these bugs. As of right now they took well to the transplant and already have gotten stronger at the stem. With challenges come knowledge! Thanks for checking it out Peace love & grow

📆 Semana 7 La Monster Maker entra en su tramo final de floración mostrando todo su esplendor. Los cogollos se han compactado y endurecido, repletos de tricomas que dan un brillo casi plateado bajo la luz. Los pistilos comienzan a oscurecer ligeramente, señal de maduración, mientras el aroma se vuelve más denso y penetrante, llenando el ambiente con notas dulces, especiadas y un fondo terroso inconfundible. El riego se ajusta con precisión para evitar exceso de humedad, manteniendo la planta firme y saludable. Cada día revela una evolución visible, dejando claro que está en su mejor momento antes del gran cierre. 🔥 Fase crítica de maduración: la potencia, el aroma y la resina se afinan al máximo. ¡Seguimos creciendo fuerte 💪!

Nothing special, everything is actually working. Clearly once my water was at the right temperature, no more worries. The flowers arrived at 12/12 + 11 with the trichromes that pop, it starts to be pleasant! So of course, I'm not going to break any records on this RUN but in any case, I've eliminated a lot of "novelty" and mistakes that I'll make more. I'm counting on the run I'm re-launching to blow all that up, I'm going to go for a performance goal The stretch is off to a good start, it should settle down around 12/12 +21 - 28, so I will place my second net next week. I have done a defoliation. I change the soup in 2 days, so my solution lasts 10 days. I have a slight over-fattening, but really nothing serious, I will switch to an EC of 1.8 - 1.9 instead of 2.0. and I will observe. Here we can see the delay of one of the plants, it's as if I was shooting with only 3 plants. Next time, only one strain, same size of cuttings and passage by cuttings and RDWV DIY mandatory before passage in the V-system. Next week, I change the brand of fertilizer for the RDWC, I go to Athena, I will introduce the PK of Athena which according to their recommendation starts at the 21st day at a rate of 2ML/L. I turn with the base sensi bloom a and b + athena pk Otherwise, I receive the parts this week for my RDWC DIY system for growth, I'll make it with my friend and I'll test it and I'll give you a feedback on the next update, especially since I'm going to restart right away, I'm going to do 10-15 days in cuttings and then I'll go to the RDWC DIY system for growth until I finish the FLO of the V-SYTEM and then I'll go straight to the next one. I'm going to put my LEDS at 80% which is the MAX recommendation of SANlight without c0² ( I don't forbid myself to grow at 100% in week 5-6, I'll see... )

D50. The start of the third week of flower, and all is well in the tent. She is very dense and super compact, and I think I need to defoliate her soon to increase airflow and prevent budrot. ------------------------------ D51. I removed a few leaves to increase light penetration and airflow. I also calibrated my Hygrometer since I've noticed lately that it seemed a bit off. Sure enough, it was off by 7%. ------------------------------ D54. There's nothing to report as she is just doing her thing without any help from me. I'm going out of town for a week, and she will be left to her own devices. ------------------------------

Wir sind voll im Stretch, haben den Dünger langsam über die vorige Woche gesteigert und sind jetzt beim normalen Düngeschema. Die CapJunky ist sehr buschig und klein und beim "Stammrubbeltest" riecht's nach verschwitztem Cappy, ein echte Verarsche der Strain, wie ich finde 😄

Weekly Janitorial duties…… Survived 2 day vacation Day 48, noticeable swelling and trich production over the last few days. Slowly raising light to decrease intensity. Thinking about cutting the lights back to 11/13. Added a few bamboo stakes to support and open them up a little. Starting to get a little fade on one PBB
