12/15: Some plants are taking too long to transition and stretching beyond my space constraints, so I dialed the photoperiod back to 12/12. 12/16: Fed today and rotated edge plants. Added another 150w of 3000k below the canopy. 12/17: Worked on ventilation...no A/C necessary now, as I'm using another AC Infinity 6" fan to intake outdoor air into the closet whenever temps reach 75f..and it's been cold as hell outside.👍 The final trick will be to replace the 6" exhaust fan with an 8" so as to be able to fully exchange the closet air faster ...but that's gonna have to wait til next season.

Hello and welcome to week 10. We join Queen Citronella after a week of high drama at the palace. She was poisoned! Dun dun duhhhhh. The royal food taster has already been executed, but her majesty is displeased still and on the warpath. She has recovered, much scabbed on her skin, but her new growth is coming in healthy. Lets see how week 10 goes for her royal highness. She and I will see you tomorrow. Day 64: Fertigated 5l. Day 65: Fertigated 5l. Her majesty have grown 2cm to 50cm. Day 67: Height 52cm. Not much of a stretch here now. Unsure what the prognosis is. For the first time today she smells like super lemon haze. Day 68: Fertigated 5l. Day 69: Nothing to report Day 70: Her majesty has recovered well from the serious nutrient toxcitiy I subjected her to for 2 days. However I do think I have given the plant a fairly big setback. I wonder if her stretch is already over. That would honestly suit me perfectly well for this grow. Her tent is too small for her.

Last week went well. She is growing up at a good steady rate. Hope it continues like this for another week in veg and I think it will be a decent sized auto for being in a 3 gallon container. I started lst training and because of how fast it grew,.it started to split the plant in the middle at the base of the branches. To avoid it splitting and causing damage, I did some supercropping to help even out the canopy some. That's the main goal of the week is evening up the branches.

**Encontrarás la traducción a español al final de la descripción** From/Desde: 19/04/19 || To/Hasta: 25/04/19 From day/Desde día: 57 || To day/Hasta día: 63 You can find the Gorillas Diary here (Texts are the same this week): ** Podéis encontrar el diario de las Gorilla aquí (Los textos son iguales esta semana):** https://growdiaries.com/diaries/25675-makingmoney-with-gorilla-mm-vs-gorilla -----IMAGES & VIDEOS----- 1 - Before defoliation 2 - Defoliation 3 - After defoliation -----WEEK SUMMARY----- (Following text was translated with tools and reviewed, sorry for mistakes, misspellings or nosense things) As you can see I've done a defoliation this week. Yes, I have really gone over the top, I have removed many more leaves than I had, and the tails of the plants has not come to join at all due to the failed defoliation. Being the first defoliation I do, I did not really know what I was doing and I went crazy. Now that it has been several weeks since I made this defoliation, I realize that I should not have removed the leaves from the nodes of the tails, because they have stopped growing and have not joined with their superior parts. Anyway, the plants are beautiful today and although they could be much better I feel very happy with them. I know I've made 2 fatal mistakes in this grow - The first has been the massive defoliation badly done, defoliation yes, but with head ... do not follow my example. - The second failure that I see today, is that I did not leave enough growth time (18/6) after having made the last pruning and that has made the tails have been a length much less than what would have been desired, I think that 2 more weeks of growth would have been perfect. -----WATERING CALENDAR----- 20/04/19 - 1,250 ml with Sensizym, Silica, Rhino Sk, Bud Ignitor, Big Bud, Bud Candy & Bud Factor-x @ PH6.4 & 1.2 E.C. 23/04/19 - 1,250 ml with All week nutrients - (Silica, Sensizym & Bud Ignitor) @ PH6.5 & 1.5 E.C. *****ESPAÑOL***** -----IMÁGENES Y VÍDEOS----- 1 - Antes de la defoliación 2 - Defoliación 3 - Después de la defoliación -----SUMARIO SEMANAL----- Como podéis ver esta semana he hecho una defoliación. Si, efectivamente me he pasado de listo, he quitado muchas más hojas de las que debía y las colas de las plantas no ha llegado a unirse del todo debido a la fallida defoliación. Al ser la primera defoliación que realizo, no sabía muy bien que hacía y me lancé a lo loco. Ahora que han pasado varias semanas desde que realicé esta defoliación, me doy cuenta de que no debí de haber quitado las hojas de los nodos de las colas, pues estos han dejado de crecer y no se han unido con sus partes superioras. De todas maneras, las plantas están preciosas a día de hoy y aunque podrían estar mucho mejor me doy con un canto en los dientes. Se que he cometido 2 errores gordos en este cultivo - El primero ha sido la defoliación masiva mal realizada, defoliación si, pero con cabeza.... no sigáis mi ejemplo. - El segundo fallo que yo veo a día de hoy, es que no dejé suficiente tiempo de crecimiento (18/6) después de haber realizado las últimas podas y eso ha hecho que las colas hayan quedado de una longitud muy inferior a la que hubiera deseado, creo que 2 semanas más de crecimiento hubiera sido perfecto. -----CALENDARIO DE RIEGO----- 20/04/19 - 1.250 ml con Sensizym, Silica, Rhino Sk, Bud Ignitor, Big Bud, Bud Candy y Bud Factor-x @ PH6.4 & 1,2 E.C. 23/04/19 - 1.250 ml con todos los nutrientes semanales - (Silica, Sensizym y Bud Ignitor) @ PH6,5 & 1,5 E.C.

🍊 Correction time! Alright guys, I have to admit — I totally mixed things up somewhere during transplant 😅 Turns out this one here is actually Sweet Mandarine Z, not Mental Rainbow. And the one that’s listed under Sweet Mandarine Z is in fact the Mental Rainbow 🌈😂 Unfortunately, GrowDiaries doesn’t let me edit the strain name anymore (thanks, GD 😩), but I wanted to make it clear for everyone following along. 👉 So just to keep it transparent: – This diary = Sweet Mandarine Z 🍊 – The other one = Mental Rainbow 🌈 Both are from Sweet Seeds, and both are turning out absolutely amazing 🔥 If you enjoy my grows and want to see even more updates, follow me on Instagram: @Dendegrow 🌿📸 I post there more often — with extra tips, tricks & grow insights 🌱💡 🍊 Korrektur-Post! Okay Leute, ich muss zugeben — ich habe beim Umtopfen wohl die Pflanzen vertauscht 😅 Diese hier ist nämlich Sweet Mandarine Z, und nicht Mental Rainbow. Und die, die unter Sweet Mandarine Z läuft, ist in Wahrheit die Mental Rainbow 🌈😂 Leider kann man bei GrowDiaries den Sortennamen nachträglich nicht mehr ändern (danke dafür 😩), aber ich wollte das hier klarstellen, damit alle Bescheid wissen. 👉 Zur Übersicht: – Dieses Tagebuch = Sweet Mandarine Z 🍊 – Das andere = Mental Rainbow 🌈 Beide stammen von Sweet Seeds – und beide entwickeln sich absolut großartig 🔥 Wenn euch meine Grows gefallen, folgt mir gerne auch auf Instagram: @Dend 🌿📸 Dort poste ich noch mehr Inhalte mit Infos, Tipps und Tricks rund ums Growen 🌱💡

🌱 Week 3 – Transplant Time, Studio Vibes & Root Dreams Grower’s Journal – BlueBerry by Zamnesia Seeds | Entry 004 This week marks a major milestone in our BlueBerry journey, transplant time. Our three beautiful girls have been thriving, and after careful observation, we’ve selected Pheno #1 and Pheno #2 to move forward into their new homes and toward the flowering stage. ⸻ Transplanting into Fabric Pots – Why & How We’ve moved the selected girls into 11L Amnesia fabric pots, and here’s why fabric pots are a grower’s best friend: • Air Pruning: Fabric pots naturally prune roots when they hit the edges, encouraging a dense, fibrous root ball with no circling. • Oxygenation: They allow more airflow to the root zone, supporting microbial activity and preventing anaerobic pockets. • Drainage: Overwatering is much harder—excess water simply flows through. • Temperature Regulation: Fabric helps prevent root overheating, especially important under powerful grow lights. 🧡 These pots create an environment where roots can breathe, explore, and flourish. And that’s the heart of healthy, vigorous growth. ⸻ 🌿 Roots & Selection – What We Saw Before transplanting, we gently lifted the plants to check their roots, and they were absolutely gorgeous. White, fuzzy, and lively, signaling that they were ready to stretch into something bigger. While all three seedlings looked fantastic, BlueBerry #1 and BlueBerry #2 stood out with stronger symmetry, tighter nodes, and a more expressive posture. BlueBerry #3 will stay behind—for now—a backup, just in case. 💫 ⸻ Soil Mix & Nutrient Support We prepped the new pots with a focused super soil mix blended with Aptus Holland amendments: Transplant Mix Includes: • 🌱 Super soil base (organic, airy, compost-rich) • Aptus Mycor-Mix – inoculates roots with powerful mycorrhizal fungi • 🌿 Aptus Micro-Mix – delivers beneficial bacteria to balance the root zone • ⚖️ Aptus Substrate Buffer Powder – stabilizes pH & improves nutrient exchange First Watering Feed Mix (per liter): • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml Strengthens cell walls, improves nutrient flow, and boosts stress resistance (especially post-transplant). • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml Helps develop strong structure and leaf formation. • 💧 Aptus All-in-One Liquid – 1 ml Balanced macro and micronutrients for baseline support. • 🌾 Aptus Start Booster – 2 ml Stimulates root expansion and early vegetative energy. Water Stats: • pH: 5.83 • EC: 1.01 • Water Temp: 18.5°C ⸻ 🌬️ Environment & Gear Overview Our setup is getting tighter every day: • Lighting: Black Series 600 LED by Future of Grow, full-spectrum, clean white light, perfect for compact, healthy growth. • Ventilation: • 6” Spider Farmer inline fan + (carbon filtered) – controlled by Spider Farmer GGS Controller • 6” TrolMaster AeroFan + (carbon filtered) – linked to the TrolMaster Ecosystem • Why carbon filters? Even at this stage, clean air = clean grow. Carbon filters reduce smells, but more importantly, they help purify the incoming and outgoing air. • Environmental Conditions: • Temp: ~27°C • Humidity: ~57.4% • CO₂: ~632 ppm • Airflow: Gentle, consistent, and perfectly balanced ⚙️ We’re gradually dialing in the TrolMaster system, automating parts of the grow environment, like extraction, CO₂ management, and eventually irrigation. For now, everything is still done by hand-watering, feeding, and loving every single leaf. ⸻ 📸 Studio Time – A Celebration of Beauty This week, the girls got a special treat: a trip to the studio. Their energy, their posture, their color, it all deserved to be captured. Their presence under the soft lights was stunning. These won’t be the last photos we take, we’ll be back again before they outgrow their portability. But for now, these are moments to remember. 💙📷 ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect After Transplant In the next few days: • Some slower above-ground growth is normal, roots are stretching first. • Expect to see a new flush of leaves and stronger stems midweek. • No training yet, just letting them adapt and settle. 🙅‍♂️ What NOT to Expect • No explosive height jumps yet • No flowering signs • No topping until they’re fully recovered This week is about integration, expansion, and ease. ⸻ 🎥 Series Continues – Follow the Rhythm As always, this is part of our ongoing Grow Series, an open diary of everything we do and why.

Smoked this before from somebody else's grow who I know didn't posses the greenest of fingers and it was incredible, so will be interesting to see how good (or bad) it will be in my hands. Just water week 1

8/31/2024 Both plants getting their first day of bloom spectrum lighting, red spectrum dominant. Already seeing signs of flowering on Plant A - the transition into flower must have been perfect. Otherwise, this plant might be an autoflower? DLI on canopy top around 30-32. Lights set to 70% intensity. Reduced lung room humidity to 50% target. Lots of rain lately and the dehumidifier is working hard to keep up with 60-80% outdoor humidity. Tent humidity is hanging out around 60-65% 9/2/2024 Checking over both plants and doing light defoliation of larger fan leaves. Looking for more pre-flower signs on Plant B. Small nodules appearing on plant B. slightly odd formations compared to plant A. I will be keeping a close eye on this over the next few days. Water level issues from last week are well within control. Since the fix was implemented the system requires about 2 fewer gallons to keep the system cycling as intended. Continuing to top the reservoir with fresh nutrient water with about 1 gallon of water per day. Still have not conducted a water change from the system. I will be planning one here closer to the end of this week when I have a little bit more free time at home. 9/3/2024 Plant A has a few signs of natural varieagation on fan leaves. Also found this cool leaf formation on a few of the larger fan leaves (see picture above). Plant B pre-flower signs still look odd, but monitoring closely. 9/6 Plant B still unconfirmed as a female. Preflower expressions are looking slightly more female, but no hairs yet. Both plants are looking healthy and doing well! The flow issues with the return line was due to a root mass making its way into the line and getting stuck. I was able to pump it out with some suction. Flow is completely returned and both buckets, back to stress free hydro for a few more days :D
