Very saddened by the turn of events, 3 herms, 2 different grow environments, but each tent had another strain growing along with it. No seeds or problems with the Cookies strain… I had no power outages, no light leaks, no schedule changes, and performed relatively little defoliation during flower. To me, this cannot be attributed to stress, as they showed no sign of stress or deficiency’s throughout the grow. Long story short, booooooo.

03/23/25: I’m very pleased with the progression of this grow so far. All five plants are showing consistent and vigorous growth, and each one has maintained the same level of vigor and size relative to the others since sprouting. This consistency is a good early sign of genetic stability and uniform structure, which will help with canopy management as we move further into veg. At this point, each plant is developing its 4th and 5th nodes, which is a key marker in early vegetative growth. Once the 5th node is fully established, I’ll consider topping or training, depending on the growth structure and the phenotype expression of each plant. After removing the humidity domes last week, I noticed that the first set of true leaves—which had been sitting in high humidity—developed browning on the edges. This is a common reaction when leaves are exposed to open air after having retained too much surface moisture. Fortunately, this issue was limited to the oldest leaf set. All new growth has adjusted perfectly to the environment inside the tent, showing healthy development and no further signs of stress. The plants’ deep green color indicates that they are receiving sufficient nitrogen, which is essential during this stage of growth. Additionally, some of the larger fan leaves are beginning to curl slightly inward, which may look concerning at first, but is actually a natural response to airflow. The plants are adjusting to the oscillating fan in the tent—modifying their leaf shape to be more aerodynamic. This airflow helps: • Strengthen stem tissue through gentle mechanical stress • Promote root zone development as the plant adjusts its internal resource allocation • Increase resilience to environmental fluctuations So far, no roots are visible at the bottom of the starter pots, but I expect them to show in the next couple of days. As soon as they do, I’ll transplant each plant into 1-gallon AirPots. AirPots encourage rapid root pruning and horizontal expansion, which leads to more efficient nutrient uptake and a healthier root system. Once the transplant into AirPots is complete, I’ll provide a full update along with new photos showing their root development, new environment, and how they respond post-transplant. Everything is looking on track, and I’m excited to see how each of these phenotypes continues to express themselves over the next phase. 03/25/25: Today I relocated all five plants from the 2x2 seedling tent into their permanent home: the 4x4 AC Infinity grow tent. This is an important environmental shift, so I’m allowing the plants some time to adjust before making any further changes like transplanting. They’re now sitting under the AC Infinity S44 grow light, which is currently set to 20% power. The light is positioned 24 inches (approximately 61 cm) above the canopy. According to my budget PAR meter, the plants are receiving around 350 PPFD, which is a safe and effective intensity for young vegging plants still acclimating to their new space. Although the original plan was to transplant them into 1-gallon AirPots around this time, I’ve decided to delay that by a couple of days. Environmental shifts—like new lighting, airflow patterns, and spatial layout—can stress young plants, so I want to give them time to adjust before introducing transplant stress. This move also gave me a chance to set up the AC Infinity AI+ Controller, which I won in a contest last year (huge thanks to AC Infinity). So far, my first impressions are positive: • Setup was just as smooth as their other controllers. • It’s already doing a great job managing the environment passively. • I haven’t explored all of its automation features yet, but I’m excited to see how much precision it can offer, especially for managing VPD and dialing in climate conditions throughout veg and flower. Once the plants have had time to settle into the new environment, I’ll transplant them into their 1-gallon AirPots and provide a full update with photos.

July 31: Another week of warm sunny weather coupled with thunderstorms bringing a decent amount of rain. Flowers are stacking and resin coming on thick developing complex odor. Harvest coming in a couple of weeks.

Tag 61: Noch 2 Wochen bis zur Ernte. Die beiden Mädels richen schon sehr aromatisch und sehen recht verschieden aus. Ab heute gieße ich nur noch Wasser ohne Dünger.

Apologies for the delayed updates.. Week 5 and she is in flower...She experienced no training at all.. I was abit skeptical about growing her outside..even though she is not that big and branchy.. I just wanted to see how she would respond. I do know that the yield will be jeopardized but it's all in good sport hehe 😜 😉.. Feeding: She has been in living soil since a baby added ocean mix dry amendments to the top soil once I saw her first pistils..

Hello, Day 56, Flower Phase , Gelat.OG, Final week of flower phase is started, Day 63 or week 9 I am planing to harvest the plant, Trichomes still cloudy but in some buds I can see slightly amber color on Trichomes, I ll ask a QUS before I do the harvest anyways. PS there is BUD ROT Prob just seen it Yesterday 31-12-22 - Seeking answer for that grow QUS, Guys pls help Thanks. Pls check last Video for BUD Rot Problem. Thanks Day 56 - 29/12/22 Day 58/59 - 31/12/22

Another good week for this lady. Temps were high, but she handled it like a champ. Because she is so beastly and only in a 4 gallon pot, I’m watering about 1 gallon of water every 3 1/2 days. The dry back seems to be better if I don’t wait till the 4 th day. Buds are developing nicely, and stacking really well. I’m going to have some decent sized colas. Frost is coming along nicely too. She has a Kush smell with some sandalwood at the moment… Temps were floating around 82 degrees this week, with RH around 55-58%. Plucked a few more fan leaves, but otherwise just a slight turn each time I check on the tent. Happy Gardening

Just cut down the Miller high life bottle grow with QP. Was a really neat micro grow. It got much bigger then I expected. Was a pain to get started, and growing. Finally got it. The Unit Farm UF2000 worked great. Thank you Unit Farm 🌱 I will be back when dried to weigh out. Happy growing 🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the likes, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel. 🍻🌱👍 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

This is a perfect strain for a beginner as it’s so resilient but also good for a more experienced as she can be topped and trained and have huge colas. I would recommend everyone grow Grapefruit 🌱🌱🌱

Eai familia, sejam todos bem vindos a mais uma semana de cultivo dessa maravilha da FastBuds. Nesta semana notei que as folhas de baixo da banana purple punch estavam amarelando e queimada nas pontas e laterais, então fiz uma rega com mais nutrientes e até agora as folhas que estão crescendo novas já estão com a cor bem melhor. Também fiz uma amarra para controlar o tamanho, e ver se teria ramificações novas já que ainda não tenho um grow e o espaço da sapateira não e grande, até o momento está dando super certo, as meninas deram uma boa engrossada no caule e geraram vários novos galhos. Acredito que na próxima semana já inicia a pré- floração então dei nutrientes pra elas já se prepararem pra iniciar o crescimento das flores. Obrigado a todos que estão acompanhando até aqui espero trazer um resultado incrível!

AMS White widow Amsterdam marijuana seeds white widow 25th October 2021 BOOM 👊 👊 She is really in full flower mode now 😍 💪 She is looking really great and I am impressed with her early flowering vigor 👌 I fed her the guano last week and have been just feeding her water up until today , but will supplement with some Fish hydroslate and molasses as a boost for those roots and fabulous flowers 👊 Cheers for stopping by 👍

Slow growth this week in my opinion. The dosage of fertilizer was increased to 2 tablespoons. Let's see how that goes during the week.
