For the Herbies contest - https://growdiaries.com/diaries/157348-grow-journal-by-dabbertglobberfield#gallery=6777378 - Grandmommy Purple is guilty multiple noise violations for being too loud and for stanky funk. Harvest - 169 days / 66 days in flower Well, we did it. I made it to the end. All I can think is...WOW that was A LOT of work. But I think I had very good results for a first time grower. I For harvest, we took Plant B and D and prepared them for immediate freezing. Altogether, I ended up with 1212g wet on plant B and 1089g wet on plant D. I ended up freezing 1816g of this. There was some from each of these plants that was set aside from freezing because, for whatever reason, I thought they were not worthy of washing because of how progressed the leaf damage was from the root rot battle. So that was cut up and dried as nuggets instead of hanging like the rest. Sawtooth and Plant C were both harvested and hung in the tent to dry for 12-13 days. I think I overdried by 1-2 days because when I jarred them they struggled to raise up to 55%. So I am using rh% packs. After drying Sawtooth and plant C, I ended up at 459.8g for dried flower and 170.8g in dried trim. So just over 1lbs between the 2 plants and 4.15lbs wet between the other 2 plants that was washed for hash. So... are you for real with the effort involved with washing bud for bubble hash? I don't think I would do this in the warmth. I only pursued doing bubble hash cause it's cold right now and I figured that would really help. Even in the 30s(fahrenheit) stuff would stick. It's hilarious how sticky of a process this is. I hope you have a bunch of gloves, water, and ice to burn through. I went through over 60 gallons of distilled water and 80lbs of ice to wash the 4 lbs. I am envious of people in videos using a hose to collect, clean, and refill. Also, doing this as a 1 person show is the definition of insanity. I broke the washings up into 3 parts. The first part was was the tester wash. I broke off 420g of plant D's 848gs available. I used 7 bags to see where I would end up. I used 220, 160, 120, 90, 73, 45, 25. What I determined was that if I was hunting a specific micron with a lot of material this would help find what you can get. But for the next washing I reduced the amount of bags to 4; 220, 160, 45, 25. The time, with the 4 bags, I washed with 809g. I had a much more favorable experience and return this second time but I had green fast and probably used too much ice. The 3rd wash was the remaining 631g and I found an extra 137g I added of sugar leaves and trim, brining the 3rd wash to 768g. I used 5 bags this time; 220, 160, 73, 45, 25. By the 3rd wash I have become an expert in collection but also never want to do it again. lol. 2 of the 3 washes have dried and I have 43.4g of bubble and 2.8g of dry sift. 37.4g of that bubble is able to be pressed into rosin. I will probably press that dry sift as well. The other stuff is 25u or 160u that I will experiment with or cook with. The other stuff is drying so I can't add it all in. I pressed a bunch of trim and some flower. The trim presses nice and the dab is decent. I am working out a good temp for the flower. But the problem with all these tests to find the sweet spot is that I have all these testers to go through but want to keep pressing and trying that! I think I will need to work on a better storage solution. I can't wait for the fresh frozen bubble hash rosin pressing... I have over 20gs of bubble to put in one bag. I am really looking forward to this. But I will need to work up to that pressing since I have never pressed hash/kief/bubble before in my rosin press. So this should be really fun. I will 100% post an update of the hash pressing once I do that and also after the 3rd wash session is done drying. In closing, saying I learned a lot from this grow would be an understatement. I fully expect to start it back up in a few weeks after some R&R then some R&D. There's some things I will need to work on before I start again, such as: having a single external reservoir that feeds multiple plants, hard to clog and easy to use ebb and flow system, miscellaneous final run stuff like space for drying. So thanks everyone for hanging out and perusing the photos and or reading all my huge rambling updates and thanks to those for the help along the way.

Week 13 from Seed | Week 2 Flower - Eternity Grow Cup Update April marks a fresh beginning, a new season, and a new stage in our Eternity Grow Cup journey. While many celebrate April Fool’s, for me, this is a time of progress and transformation in the garden. 🌱( and yes i know i am a coupe weeks back on the dates in here, but today still the 1st of April so still new year to me ) This week, the girls are filling up their space beautifully. While I continue bending them to maximize coverage, they remain incredibly compact—short, strong, and resilient. No extreme stretching, just thick, vigorous plants showing their best potential. Each of the five ladies is looking absolutely stunning. TrolMaster Ecosystem in Action The full TrolMaster system is running smoothly, allowing for optimal environmental control. Currently, I am using full spectrum with the reds, but I have yet to introduce UV into the mix. The girls are responding well to the setup, and I’m loving how everything is coming together. Room Conditions PPFD: 750 Temperature: 26.6°C Humidity: 68.9% CO2 Levels: 1200 PPM The environment is staying in a great range, ensuring that the plants can thrive under perfect conditions. Reservoir & Soil Data pH: 5.97 (Holding steady at 5.8) Water Temperature: 18.7°C (Still a bit low—I need to make adjustments) Soil EC: 1.09 Soil Temperature: 21.8°C (Better, but aiming for 22-23°C) Humidity remains a crucial factor, even in flower, so I’m continuing to use humidifiers to keep the levels stable. The air is quite dry, but managing it properly is key to keeping the girls happy. A Look Into the Grow Space I’ve shared some full-room shots so you can all get a better idea of my workspace. Having an organized, clean, and efficient grow area is essential for a smooth and successful run. Let me know what you think of the setup! A huge THANK YOU to Zamnesia, Plagron, and Grow Diaries for making this contest possible. The competition is heating up, and I want to wish all the growers the best of luck in the Eternity Grow Cup! Your dedication and passion inspire me every day. Big love to my sponsors and the entire community—whether you’re here for the love, the knowledge, or even the hate (yes, I see you too 😆)—I apprecilove each and every one of you! Stay Tuned! We’re just getting started in flower, and the best is yet to come. Keep an eye on the updates, and don’t forget to check out YouTube for 4K episodes and more detailed insights into the grow! Let’s grow together!

It is on a heavy heart i bring this news. I don't know where to start..... I've had problems with almost every bug known to man..Nothing new.. I can usually control it... it's sad news I have to post ... My baby is probably not going to go as long as I want. I checked her Sunday 10/1/17 ( due to caterpillar damage ) ( moths are really bad this year in So. Cal ) She has suffered .. I found a small piece mold..buried in a cola. I cut the cola. You can see it in the pics. My worry is I have more. Every grower will tell you spider mites are the worst aka the Borg. But there not thinking of mold or bud rot. Which is got to be way worse . The mold comes from catapillar feces.. yah I know.. I'm just telling you the facts.. Now you know my worries. And they are big.. I will address this issue. It can only get worse... I am so depressed thinking about it. It is very upsetting. It is hard to tell you this. I almost feel like I failed. But I know I didn't. I'm sure not looking for any sympathy. Please .. It won't help. I will make the decision on what to do when i have more information which will be Friday night for me. I will then decide my action. To harvest all , part, or clean out colas by opening them up. Every grow has it's problems.. Outdoor problems are so much different. This has to be one of the most beautiful trees I have ever grown. Just good genitcs. The pics do not do her justice. Trust me on this one.. Thanks for listening. 😔

Week 6 update: What up Grow family. These testers are growing fast and strong. Where in week 6 now and the swelling and ripening of flowers are going amazing. Still feeding 500ml/16oz daily as I've found that's the sweet spot for 3gal fabric pots for these. I'd say these probably have about 2 weeks left until they'll be finished. All in all Happy Growing.

Buenos días queridos compañeros jardineros!!! Ya estamos de vuelta otra semana más con nuestras preciosas Llimonet, no os imaginais lo agradecida que estoy por tener estas semillas en estos tiempos que estamos viviendo de encierro y cuarentena. Como veis en unos días se han puesto realmente hermosas, no han dado ningun problema ni susto, la realidad es que lo único que las diferencia es que tienen distinto tamaño, por todo lo demás no están pidiendo ni demasiado abono, ni agua ni nada. Si que noto que sufren si la temperatura sube de los 28 grados, pero no es nada que no pueda controlar, así que todo bien. No hay rastro de plagas, revisad siempre muy bien las hojas por la cara inferior, ahí podremos encontrar pequeños maleantes de los que nos tendremos que deshacer. En el siguiente y último transplante, haremos pruebas entre macetas de tela y de plástico, para comprobar en cual crecen mejor. Nos vemos para la semana con más, pero no mejor, ajajaja MUY BUENOS HUMOS COMPAÑEROS😘

A couple days from ripened nanners and they should start cumming all over the place. Will be saving this (what I believe to be) very special pollen and crossing with some of the lower bud sites on the slurricane that remains in the garden. Will also allow the polyploid cola to pollinate itself and collect the S1's. Very excited for these nanners

Day 43: Week 7 off to a good start. Watered with just PH’d water. The soil PH is reading 7.0 so I’m bringing the water/feeds closer to 6.0 to try bring it down a bit. Took nearly 4ltrs again. Moved around another 5 cm away from light, just to be safe. I only have around 20cm left to play with so hopefully it doesn’t get much taller. Day 45: Watered with nutrients (1ml SR, 5ml B) with PH @ 6.3. Took 3ltrs. I measured the PH of run off and it’s reading 7.0. It’s fairly dark down below the canopy and I want to give the plant a break from me clipping leaves off so I’ve added in one 23watt Warm White (2700k) standard home CFL bulb down low. I don’t know how much it will help but it won’t hurt so no harm in sticking it in. Day 47: Watered with nutrients (1ml SR, 5ml B). Took 3ltrs, run off measured at 7.0. Plant looks happy and healthy which is great considering how much defoliation I’m having to do. I’m thinking now that two 9ltr pots might be too big for my space. Day 49: Seven weeks old today and looking happy and healthy. Watered with nutrients and added Green Sensation to the feed (1ml SR, 1ml GS, 2ml B). Plant grew 10cm this week. I think the main stretch is over now.

They are really stretching this week. I’m having concerns over some of them not drinking and yellow leaf tips. Not sure what can be causing stress. Ah maybe cold floors as I remove the insulation Half way through this 3rd week of training they are looking good and thriving

This week has gone great. My lovely lady's are thirsty and taking there nutrients wonderfully. I have increased there water and nutrients intake and they are responding well. They continue to grow rapidly I am moving there light almost daily. I'm running out of vertical room.. All the hard work is paying off, they are starting to show there reward of amazing bud sites developing everywhere. A few more weeks and they will get added micronutrients. I'm pumped to see there development coming soon

Welcome to my Purple Haze Autoflower Diary sponsored by MSNL & Xpert Nutrients. Days 36-48 weeks 6-7 of pre flower day 2-15 Plant is responding really well having 14hrs of light under my FC3000, and I've been using IR to give my fems extra flowering time & this has suited my Autoflowers really well. New nutrients i see huge improvements in all of my Autos not only from MSNL but crop wide. Root Zone increased 3x easily. Been organic/mineral you need to PH to 6.7 for soil. Are ideal 6-6.1 ph in-between coco/soil and you adjust as needed. Really happy with their push for my plants. She has put on a nice bit of height. Her smell is very new to my grows, as I've not grown a purple haze or smoked it in years. Fruity, like a soda, typical PH, can't wait to taste this girl. (She's currently just been taken out of my tent into dry room, I'll hang her in a few hours) FEEDINGS/DLI DLI is around 40-41 700-730 ppf over 14hrs with UV-A calculated in. Core NPK feeds have been only 1x every 5-7 days 450-550 ppm, next week I'll start adding there pk /bloom booster. Master root & everything else brings the general ppm per day 7-1000 with enzymes & master root having huge EC change to water. (Note? This is a different kind of EC, bacteria/enzymes & amino acids have a high EC input but aren't counted as core NPK feeds, which have been 450-500 "master bloom parts A+B) Thanks to MSNL & XPERT NUTRIENTS for their support & sponsorships. Much appreciated. Shout out to yall for stopping by. I look forward to seen your diaries. Either way thanks for dropping by.

21/04/2023 Day 65 We are almost there, I can see pistils are quite mature now, maybe less on the top, but that's fine to me. Tomorrow will I will begin the Kleen for 3 days and harvest on Tuesday 25. 23/04/2023 Day 67 Now 100% with Final Clean (TA), EC 0.2 (because it mixes the remaining last nutrient mix from the upper tank 4L against 12L in the lower tank) I've just realized I messed up with the Diary weeks, can't be at Week 11 yet, on day 67. Hand the week showed on Diary cover is even set to 12. Not sure if I could set 10 to this one too. Will try anyway. => no, I can't go back, I would be able to set 12, good when you're late in publishing though..
