The fourth week of growth has begun, and our FBA 2502 from 42Fast Buds is thriving. After the transplant into a 10-liter pot, the plant has adapted well and continues to develop strong and healthy. Despite being an autoflower, we're experimenting with a 12/12 light cycle, and so far, the results look promising. The temperature remains stable, reaching up to 30°C during the day, with an average of 27°C–28°C. Humidity is maintained between 60% and 65%, providing optimal conditions for growth. The plant has grown noticeably, now standing between 20 and 25 cm, with well-developed foliage. We've started applying low-stress training (LST) to shape its structure, encouraging better light penetration and maximizing potential yields. Additionally, we continue to feed our beauty with Xpert Nutrients, and the results are already visible—strong, vibrant growth and lush green leaves. Everything is on track, and we’re excited to see how our experiment unfolds in the coming weeks!

Wir neigen uns dem ende zu. War ein kleiner kampf mit den ladys. Da ich eher mit einer sativa gerechnet habe. Aber ne indica bekahm.😅😅 somit hab ich sie leider 2 wochen zu früh in den 12/12 modus geschickt. Das nächstemal weis ich beschrid😋😁😇 Aber alles in allem bin ich zugrieden. Duften seeeehr lecker und obwohl so klein. Schaut es aus als ob sie trotzdem ein wenig etwas abwirft. Werd sie sicher bald weeder fahren. Aber dann richtig😁😇😋 Die besten und saubersten stecklinge gibts wie immer bei ROOTS-FARMS. the best in austria and maybe europe👌💚🌱

🌿 **Green-O-Matic Grow Week 9 Update: Nearing Harvest Time!** 🌱 Greetings, fellow growers! It's time for an exciting update on the progress of our Green-O-Matic journey as we reach Week 9 of the grow cycle. With anticipation building and buds swelling, let's dive into the latest developments: 🌟 **Bountiful Bud Development**: At Week 9, our Green-O-Matic beauties are truly showing their potential, with buds swelling and resin production kicking into high gear. The once-small flowers have transformed into dense, frosty nuggets, promising a bountiful harvest in the near future. Trichome production is in full swing, indicating peak cannabinoid potency and aromatic complexity. 📏 **Final Stretch of Growth**: As we enter the final stretch of the flowering phase, our focus shifts to maximizing bud development while ensuring optimal ripening conditions. With careful attention to environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, and airflow, we aim to create the perfect microclimate for our plants to thrive and reach their full potential. 🍃 **Leaf Senescence and Nutrient Management**: As expected in the late flowering stage, some leaves may begin to exhibit signs of senescence as the plant reallocates energy towards bud production. This natural process is perfectly normal and serves as a signal that the plant is nearing maturity. Meanwhile, our nutrient management strategy remains vigilant, providing the essential elements needed to support robust flowering without risking nutrient imbalances or deficiencies. 🔍 **Monitoring Trichome Maturity**: With harvest on the horizon, we're keeping a close eye on trichome development to determine the optimal time for harvest. Using a jeweler's loupe or digital microscope, we inspect trichomes for signs of maturity, aiming for a mix of cloudy and amber trichomes to achieve the desired balance of THC and CBD levels, as well as flavor and aroma profiles. 🌞 **Preparing for Harvest**: As we prepare for harvest day, our checklist includes gathering supplies such as trimming shears, drying racks, and storage containers, as well as ensuring a clean and sanitized workspace to maintain the integrity of our precious buds. Proper post-harvest care and curing techniques will be employed to preserve terpene profiles and enhance overall quality. In conclusion, Week 9 marks a pivotal moment in our Green-O-Matic grow journey, where patience and precision culminate in the imminent harvest of our prized buds. Stay tuned for the next update as we celebrate the culmination of months of dedicated cultivation with a bounty of premium-grade cannabis ready to be enjoyed and shared. Happy growing! 🌿✨ 🚫 **Addendum: Phenotype Bin Update** 🌱 In the spirit of transparency and continuous improvement, it's important to note that we've made the decision to bin one out of the three phenotypes due to poor development. Despite our best efforts and meticulous care, this particular phenotype failed to thrive and did not meet our quality standards. While it's always disappointing to part ways with a plant, this decision ensures that our resources and attention remain focused on nurturing the strongest and healthiest phenotypes to their fullest potential. By removing underperforming individuals, we can redirect our efforts towards optimizing the remaining plants for a successful harvest. Rest assured, this adjustment will not deter us from our commitment to excellence. We remain dedicated to the cultivation process, learning from each experience, and striving for the highest standards of quality and consistency in our cannabis cultivation journey. Thank you for your understanding and continued support as we navigate the complexities of plant development and refinement. Together, we'll continue to grow and evolve towards greater success in our cultivation endeavors. 🌿💪

Happy Star Wars Day@all :-D My ladies are doing great. I gave myself a CO2 measuring device and a humidity god. The thing does what it's supposed to do. All of them except Iris have been in bloom since 2 days. I just stressed them out and tied them down. A few large leaves also had to believe in it. Iris comes later. Have a nice weekend@all

🍋🍒 Lemon Cherry Gelato — Week 6 From Seed (Week 2 Flower · 12/12 From Seed) Hello everyone 👋 Quick recap and a warm welcome to anyone joining the diary now, here’s where we are and how we got here. 🌱 From Seed to Now, Quick Context These Lemon Cherry Gelato girls have been grown 12/12 from seed, and we are now entering what we consider Week 2 of flower / transition. Pre-flowers are clearly visible, stacking has begun, and the stretch is now turning into early bulk. They are in that beautiful in-between phase where they still look slightly vegetative, but their behavior is unmistakably flowering. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment Update • Day temperature: ~28°C (successfully raised) • Humidity: ~65% It’s still a bit cold outside, but as plant mass increases, lighting intensity goes up, and under-canopy lighting is added, the tent itself has become a stronger heat source. This allowed us to stabilize conditions without forcing anything, exactly how we like it. • PPFD: ~600–850 (depending on plant size and position) • CO₂: ~900 ppm • Airflow: unchanged • vortex extraction • cross-winds with multiple fans • constant, gentle movement across the canopy ⸻ 💧 Feeding & Nutrition Strategy This week marks an important nutritional transition. • EC: 2.4 • pH: 6.5 From this point forward, all feedings will be pH 6.0 and above. The reason is simple: as flowering progresses, plants shift their nutrient uptake priorities, and slightly higher pH improves availability of key elements needed for bloom development. Nutrient Change • Introduced: Terra Bloom — 5 ml / L • Removed: Terra Grow This change is happening now, not earlier, because the plants have clearly entered the flowering transition. There’s no rush, no shock, just following the plant’s signals. The current recipe (our “Plagron” approach) continues to perform exceptionally well, and plant response has been outstanding so far. ⸻ 🌿 Training & Plant Handling We are continuing with a very minimal-stress approach: • No topping • No aggressive defoliation • Only leaf bending and leaf tucking This method keeps the structure open, exposes bud sites naturally, and avoids recovery downtime. Simple, effective, and extremely practical, sometimes simplicity isn’t laziness, it’s efficiency. The results speak for themselves: • strong branching • compact “ball” formations • clean stacking • healthy color fade beginning naturally ⸻ 📸 Visual Progress This update includes a large set of photos (studio + tent shots) to clearly show: • the transition phase • stretch turning into bulk • visible growth differences over just one week Every time the tent doors open, growth is noticeable, and comparing earlier photos to the latest ones makes that even clearer. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Over the coming weeks: • stretch will gradually slow • bulk and stacking will take over • plant handling will be reduced even further • stability becomes the priority What not to expect: • heavy pruning • forced corrections • unnecessary interventions At this stage, the goal is to let the plants do what they already know how to do. ⸻ 🙏 Thanks Big thank you to: • everyone following along • newcomers and long-time readers • supporters, critics, observers, all welcome • the Grow Diaries Team and platform • and all sponsors backing the journey This is a key week in the run, and we’re excited to document it properly and share the learning with the community.

Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

Hi guys, this week has been great for plant growth..they are 85cm tall and I think they will grow a little longer. You can see the future buds that will be covered with flowers. From this growth I am learning that the FIM technique is better because the buds will all be at the same height and look much more (as you can see in plant number 4). Pistils begin to appear and in the next week I hope to see more pistils. Stay Tuned 🦍

The other 3 GDP went through a flush today. Zkittlez was flushed. The very first GDP flushed in the 24th got flushed a 2nd time alongside the other 3 GDP. I’m still eyeballing to see when Runtz will be “ ready “. Finally got my dry box slapped together, DIY TIL I DIE BABY. Still it came out well for a first try. Heat ran out of control & I learned the HARD way why we don’t let our girls hang out above 85 for extended periods of time. I kinda had some severe foxtailing going on. Just biding my time until harvest , fingers crossed I don’t mess this last leg of the race up I’d be distraught . UPDATE : Lastly I found an area of BUD ROT on Runtz not knowing that’s what I had found the dust got flung in the air twice sooooo there’s spores in my tent & possibly on all my plants now . Trouble is I’ve flushed 5/10 plants & watered 5 others in the tent so humidity is super high. I’ve added in an additional dehumidifier because it is riding at 70%-80% . Within 3 mins of adding additional dehumidifier & opening tent doors as we as pointing circulatory fans at plants instead of the grow lights overall humidity dropped from 73% to 53% & still declining . Hopefully this is enough to keep the other 9 plants healthy & im going to have to harvest Runtz without Flushing . RUNTZ CHOP COMING IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS Another week on the GreeneScene in the books 📚

So growing this strain was very easy i first topped her and then tied down every branch that came too high and she maintained a really compact form measuring only 40 cm from stalk to top.. Bud to leaf ratio was amazing too it had really few leaves and has been really easy to wet trim.. The wet weight was around 360 grams wet trimmed and the total dry weight after 5 days of drying was around 80 grams wich of this quality its outstanding for just 11 weeks from seed to harvest!! So in general i truly enjoying growing her looking at her wonderful colours in flower and will surely grow again.. Thanks again to everyone passing by and liking my diaries hope you have a great day and wish you all happy growing!!!

V30, se hizo un riego con 1.2 EC y pH 6.2, ya se ha hecho el último LST a la rama principal de cada planta, ahora solo queda esperar que crezcan hasta una altura aproximada de 25~30 centímetros para pasarlas a 12/12. V31, creciendo. También, Luffy xD V34, riegos de 1.2 EC y pH 6.2, en los próximos riegos se incluirá líquido estimulante de floración, ya que en unos pocos días más se cambiara la luz a 12/12. Actualmente están de 25cm de altura, a los 30cm se cambiará a floración.
