So i’ve learned this week that the plant at the back has “foxtail” buds which is probably due to some sort of light stress. Im not too worried about because apparently the quality isn’t damaged at all. Just very curious on why only one has it out of the 2 peanut butter. Anyway getting closer to harvest. Caaannot wait 😍🙏🏽 🖖🏽🖖🏽

Esta fue su última semana con nutrientes, no engordo mucho, creo que mi error fue excederme con los nutrientes a lo largo de su ciclo, yo aproximo que me dará unos 50 gramos masomenos, no es mucho pero es trabajo honesto jaja 😆 la próxima semana será de puro flush ya para darle corte

🌿 GrowDiaries Harvest Review Runtz by Zamnesia Seeds 🌿 Participating in this contest has been an incredible journey! A massive shoutout to Plagron and Zamnesia for making this possible. Growing Runtz in a 1-liter pot was an experiment that exceeded all expectations yielding a whopping 2 ounces! 😱 Aroma & Flavor: The scent is absolutely intoxicating: fruity candy haze with a gassy undertone that fills the room. Each puff delivers a smooth smoke, leaving behind a clean white ash, a testament to its quality. Bud Structure: The buds are dense and chunky, resembling big, oily nuggets. Their vibrant colors and resin coated appearance make them a visual delight. Effects: This strain hits hard with a potent and euphoric high, perfect for evening relaxation. The balance between indica and sativa effects provides a creative uplift followed by a soothing body relaxation. Final Thoughts: From seed to harvest, this grow was a rewarding experience. The combination of top-tier genetics and quality nutrients from Plagron made all the difference. I'm thrilled with the results and proud of what I've achieved in such a compact setup. Thank you once again to the GrowDiaries community, Plagron, and Zamnesia for this opportunity. Here's to more successful grows ahead! 🌱🔥 DIARY COMPLETE

✂️ Harvest Day – Jealousy Diesel Auto (Octogenetica) Cosecha de las autoflorecientes. Llega el momento de cosechar las Jealousy Diesel autoflorecientes de Octogenetica. Aunque sobre el papel esta genética indica un ciclo más corto, en la práctica se ha decidido respetar completamente su ritmo, permitiéndole alargar su ciclo hasta alcanzar el punto de madurez que buscaba. La cosecha se ha realizado cuando las plantas han mostrado señales claras de maduración real, priorizando calidad y efecto por encima de tiempos teóricos. 🔬 Motivo de la cosecha La decisión de cortar se ha tomado tras una observación constante de tricomas y del estado general de la planta: -Tricomas mayoritariamente lechosos. -Aparición progresiva de tricomas ámbar. -Pistilos mayoritariamente oxidados. -Cogollos completamente formados y resinosos. -Aroma intenso con notas bien definidas. Aunque podrían haberse cosechado unos días antes, se ha optado por darles el tiempo extra necesario para que la resina terminara de madurar correctamente. 🌱 Estado de las Jealousy Diesel en cosecha Las autos han llegado a cosecha: -Tras completar el lavado de raíces. -Sin signos de estrés. -Con hojas perdiendo color de forma natural. -Energía enfocada completamente en las flores. Este comportamiento confirma que la planta estaba cerrando su ciclo de manera natural y sin bloqueos. ✂️ Proceso de corte La cosecha se ha realizado con cuidado, respetando la estructura de las flores y minimizando la manipulación para proteger la resina. A partir de aquí comienza el secado, fase clave para conservar el aroma y la calidad obtenida durante el cultivo. Muy contento con cómo han respondido estas autos, demostrando que la paciencia también tiene recompensa 🌿🔥

Week 6 and these girls got a scrog net added. As the plants are getting extremely heavy. Started to unfold an open up eagle spread style. So had to lend a helping hand. They got a scrog net added an the untrained plant got tied up from tents upper support bars an lower branches got some support also from the net. So far everything is going smoothly. The e680s light is putting in that work work

Started Training Late! Was on summer holiday for a week and only started training now. Above are the plants during training as well as a few hours after training. Autos are definitely more delicate and the two runts are growing slow but yet still showing some progress. Changed my bulbs back to the CMH set to 400w each (2) Also gave them a good amount of water as the FloraCaps aren’t covering the whole pot I felt like it was necessary to wet the entire grow medium well for a change. Some of them were a bit far along for training but I did the best I could. Also the Purple Lemonade and 2 other plants are showing signs of flowering.

I flipped them to flower this week, finally. They are way behind schedule because I didn't have enough space to keep them on their own 12/12 light schedule so they had to stay on 18/6 along with the other plants in the same grow space. They've gotten much bigger than I wanted them to due to that. But I'm hoping if I do the female forced pollen process correctly that'll hopefully mean more seeds to share 😁. I've been spraying the chosen males with colloidal silver for 3 days now. I take them outside to spray them & then let them fully dry before bringing them back in with the girls. Just a safety measure incase I mess up the forced female pollen process I'll still have good & untainted flower to use from the girls.

Still fighting with pH. It was 5.5 when I add the plants, but when I check a few hours later, it's already above 6.5 Days 2: I trimmed the bottom fan leaves from Purple Kush to keep them off the ground. I also topped Purple Maroc. pH was still below 6 Day 4: Veg is gone wild..... I have been shoving the large fan leaves on the Autos underneath other branches to allow light in. Red Purps may get topped yet again. Day 6:. Switched autos to bloom nutrients. Added Purpanator to them. pH set to 5.5. Topped bottom and mid branches of Red Purps to keep canopy more even. Day 7: replaced CO2 generator.

This was another hot, hot week with a big rainstorm. Take a look at the measuring cup, it is full of rainwater. Zamnesia Mango Kush continues to smell and is very sticky. It is tall and with packed buds It should be ready to take down in a couple of weeks. Half way through this grow, I had to stop using Miracle Grow and change my grow plan. I decide to use Advance Nutrients Jungle Juice for the rest of the grow. Jungle Juice’s selling point is that it is the only nutrient that I should need during the entire grow. One just need to make the solution stronger as the plant matures. The directions say to “stir vigorously” and that is true. It is very clumpy and I had to stir and shake the bottle a lot. As your plant is in veg and growing larger, directions say to up your Jungle Juice to 4 ml per liter. If my calculations are correct, I am using approx. 5 tablespoons per 5 gallon bucket. 1 gal is 3.78 liters 5 gallons=18.92 liters 4ml jungle juice per liter x 18.92 liters= 75.7 ml which is = to 5.119 tablespoons per 5 gallon bucket of water As the end of the summer is quickly approaching, I have spent some time reflecting this week on all of the contests that I have entered and not won this summer. It can be a little frustrating because of all the time I have spent taking pictures and writing commentary. But, instead of it getting me down, I have to think about all of the positive take aways and I want to share them on this platform. I have read a lot of diaries and now know why I am just an apprentice. I have a lot to learn from all of you. There are some really good growers with a lot of experience and crazy grow techniques. So much knowledge is on this platform-it’s mind boggling. To be a great grower, you must be willing to be vulnerable and put yourself out there and try different suggestions and new techniques. I have made a few friend that I enjoy chatting with. I enjoy reading comments versus just seeing likes. My best friend on grow diaries is @Natrona and my neighbor as well. She has been growing longer than I have been so I routinely learn from her. This summer I learned to mix 1 cup of Perlite into my soil. I can see where my plants need the air flow. And, I now I only defoliate fan leaves that absolutely need to be gone. I let the fan leaves stay on until they fall off. I want my buds to pull all the nutrients they can out of the fan leaves. I also bought 2 new tools that @natrona suggested. The first was a water PH tester and the second was my Max-ee Magnifier which is informative and fun to use. As always, Let’s Chat it up AND Likes and comments are appreciated

Miss Purple Mango Kush is looking really really good imo. She has grown on some nice big and dense buds. She smells super nice , and is almost ready for harvest. I will keep flushing her for the next couple of days, and keep checking with my lens until I want to cut her down.

Blütewoche 9. Dies wird vielleicht die letzte Woche ihres Lebenszyklus. Viele Narben sind schon braun gefärbt. Die Trichome sind fast alle komplett milchig. Doch Bernsteinfarbene Trichome muss man leider noch suchen. Den Einen oder Anderen findet man dann doch ab und zu. Ich denke in 5 Tagen werde ich sehen, ob ich mit der Ernte beginnen kann. Tag 59: Die Schimmelgefahr ist mir etwas zu groß. 2Buds hat es schon erwischt. Die Dame wird jetzt geerntet. 😈

(12/23-12/29, days 56 to 62) Hope everyone enjoys the pictures. I will try to add a video and black back or cover pics by end of week every week. Week 6 Notes & Observations: No new issues to note, no mites found after the first and I have used Spinosad twice now just in case. P2 is getting stressed over ties and no ring, so I decided they will both go on a ring after i broke another branch without realizing it. Found it the next day and then topped the other side to gain two colas there - still 8 set but with varied start time's and points. Still looking to flip around new year’s day. Day 58 (last feed was day 55) Tested and Calibrated my ph pens. Starting weight from each pot was 18 lbs and 8 oz, this time P1 weighed 12lbs 1oz. (12lbs 10oz before last feed) and P2 weighed 11lbs 8oz before feed (11lbs 8oz before last feed). Each plant got 1.5 gallons of purified water with a mix of Veg/Bloom Mix concentrates - 300ppm Veg Mix (recipe on week 2) and 190ppm Bloom Mix (recipe on week 5) with 1.5ml of CaliMagic (General Hydroponics 1-0-0) . The ph on this feed was balanced to 6.75ph (6.25 last time). After feed this time, P1 weighed 21lbs 5oz and P2 also weighed 21lbs 11oz (both weighed 20lbs 9oz after last feed). I got ~8 cups of runoff on P1 and 10 cups on P2 this time (8 cups of runoff on P1 and 8 cups on P2 after last feed). Runoff for P1 ph was 6.42 with 970ppm (6.36 with 1110ppm last feed) and P2 was 6.41 with 980ppm ( 6.35 with 1170ppm last feed). no top soil tests this time as ph is mostly showing no issues - next feed will be 1.5 gallons of de-chlorinated water and 6.5 to 6.75ph again - I dont see any issues from feed or training.
