This one is going to be weirdly exciting like all grows… but nothing beats growing strain you know nothing about down to to it’s ID. This is why this diary is dubbed Unknown Strain, and a lot more journals will be dubbed unknown strain. eg. Unknown Strain #1 - these strains are seeds I’ve collected and forgot to catalogue Unknown Strain (dealer/grow name #1) - I have it this way,to indicate where or from whom did I get the seed, but failed to get the accurate information regarding the strain. Alike this particular diary. I received seeds from my friend saplug16.20_exotic_genetics. Check out his work on instagram, his my mentor in growing. But I go overboard when it comes to growing. Ever since I’ve seen YouTube videos of growers growing weed plants like bonsais, I started growing my plants like I am growing actual bonsais, LST them in shapes and size while using defoliation and topping to achieve aesthetics. This type of growing is not focused on yield more for the hobbyist who grows for themselves and close friends. But I want to see if I can get more yield with this type of growing bud.

Not going to go into much detail on the individual plants this week since there is nothing exciting to report. Only note this week is something we all pretty much know already. Organics and hydroponics dont play well together! I was using gringo Rasta calmag and it clogged all my feed lines. I ordered some calimagic so this wont be an issue anymore. Everyone is growing well and stretching quite a bit. I started spreading a couple of them into the scrog and gave them some maxibloom. I will increase it as I lower the maxigro over the next couple weeks. Pretty boring right now, but stick around a few weeks and that might change.

## Week 7 Update: Strong Vegetative Growth 🌿💚 ### 🌱 Vigorous Growth Continues 🌱 Welcome to Week 7! All of the plants—Greenhouse Super Lemon Haze, Humboldt Seed Bubba Kush, and Blueberry Muffin—are still in the vegetative stage, and they’re thriving. This extra time in veg is allowing each plant to develop a strong structure, which will be crucial for supporting heavy buds when we eventually switch to flowering. --- ### 🚀 Vegetative Progress 🚀 **Greenhouse Super Lemon Haze 🌞** - Growing rapidly, with significant height and branch development. - The plant is responding well to LST, creating a wider canopy for better light distribution. **Humboldt Seed Bubba Kush 🌿** - Compact and bushy, with strong lateral growth. - Perfecting its structure to maximize yield in the flowering phase. **Blueberry Muffin 🥞** - Building a dense, sturdy frame with lush foliage. - This extra veg time is helping it develop a robust canopy, setting it up for a productive flowering stage. --- ### 🌱 Vegetative Techniques 🌱 To make the most of this vegetative period, I've been focusing on: - **Low-Stress Training (LST):** Continually training branches to create an even canopy and promote multiple bud sites. - **Topping:** Topping has been applied to encourage bushier growth and increase potential yield. - **Defoliation:** Selective defoliation to improve airflow and light penetration, ensuring the lower branches get enough light. - **Nutrient Management:** Maintaining a balanced nutrient schedule focused on nitrogen to support healthy vegetative growth. --- ### 🌿 Looking Ahead 🌿 The plants are growing strong, and this extended vegetative stage is giving them the best possible start before we transition to flowering. In the coming weeks, we'll continue to monitor their growth and make any necessary adjustments before initiating the flowering phase. Stay tuned for next week's update as the plants continue to prepare for a successful bloom! Happy growing! 🌿💚

Trimmed them, everything is filling in nicely. See signs of nuet burn flushed them and they reacted nicely. Soil has poor drainage need more perlite or change the soil next time.One plant is almost finished compared to the other 2. This is partly due to air flow. Need to get another circulating fan. Seen some fruit flies will need to deal with these so they dont eat the flowers. Lights are close to the plants but I can not move them any further away. With a few weeks left this might cause a problem. Will have to keep an eye on it. I will have to, for the next grow, change how I set up the tent. Uploaded video of plants to show the progress on all 3 sharks.

We were flushing at this point, aiming for a Day 60-64 harvest. Was super impressed with Ayahuasca Purple and LSD genetics for our environment. The Cookies Kush could have used a few more weeks to reach her full potential but still put off decent weight nonetheless. Shoutout Barney's Farms for putting out high quality, affordable genetics! Respect.

The plant grew pretty well. She smells of pine and oranges. Very frosty colas on her as well. The last Blue Dream I grew was a awesome smoke. Thanks again Medic Grow, Athena, and Spliff Seeds. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g.

Day 49. I seem to have misplaced some of the photos I had so I will be uploading them when I find them. My carbon filter decided to fall off and land on the front right plant which caused it to lose a main branch. Some slight issues with some lower leaves as you can see at the end of the video . Still full blast on bio canna range and molasses. They will be switched to 12/12 today.

You walk into the back yard and it’s a straight face punch of smells. Looking like some indoor rn moved all plants to safer place in case storm hits so now I atleast have a wind break

Strain is actually very easy to grow so i would recommend it even to begginers. Robust plant that did very well on topping, hst and lst training. Buds are thick and heavy. They release very pungent and piney smell with deep tones that reminds grape. After a week of drying i did some bud testing and i would describe the high as awesome physical stone with a bit of euphoria and happiness. Cant wait to cure the buds for a couple of weeks. Peace and be safe!

2/8 Week 13 ! Her drinking is falling, almost a quart less today. Moving into flush range as the hairs are beginning to curl and seeing some small showings of amber. Reducing the Bloom nuets to 5ml until I see its time to change again, increasing PK slightly. Prob two days then go to full PK (15ml) to take her into flush. Plan a fast flush with an agent to speed things along. 2/9 Fed 5ml/gal CT Bloom A/B 12ml/gal Peak Another day 2/10 Leaving feeding as is, building nicely leaving the plant positioned as is think this is the best compromise between all the plants in the tent. Not sure how long this will go at this point, but not cutting her short for anything. Pics 2/12 Beginning to back off the PK leaving the CocoTek at a low dose. Plan to have the PK gone in a day or so but leaving the CT until flush. Just following some new ideas on using PKs and Finishers. Pics and vid of buds using a couple of filters just trying to show these two foot long buds without messing with the dark cycle. Hope it helps 2/13 Pics that you can actually see! Due to some issues, one is on this grow (I need to increase potency on Tara), changing out the HPS for MH for a while, may finish under it depends on the other grow. Looking at the trics I have decided to drop the PK and go to normal levels of Bloom nuets until flush. Continuing to keep her cleaned out as much as needed so light gets all the way down. 2/14 Pics of the rearranged tent to end the week, Realize now how much time switching the lights to 12-12 has added to Tara's finishing time. Had no real choice but its a point learned. Happy with her progress

06/03/19 - These plants have grown so fast, normally at this stage my previous plants have been much smaller, only 14 days old and got a 8-9 wingspan on the fan leaves, I’m really happy I’ve turned to mills as I’ve had no faults with them yet, I did see a slight cal defiency on one of them but this was my own fault not the nutrients, I heard I dident have to add cal mag as their A&B had extra in it, but as I’m in coco I made a mistake but I’m hopeing that it’s gonna be a quick fix and they will be back to normal in the next few days 🤞🏻 09/03/19 - the gelatos seem like their doing fine, had a few brown specs but nothing progressed and it looks like their doing good. 12/03/19 - started to LST/leaf braid today as their already big enough for it and should be switching to flower at the end of next week

So far so good, Can anyone out there please advise if these are ready now or a few more days... Tis getting warmer now where I am. How hot is too hot for plants? Thanks in advance..

Week 5 flower going well. Nothing much to report. Increased the drip as she is taking in more water. Turned up the fans to 100% for maximum flow, and due to that, the tent got a bit warmer and a bit dryer, so the exhaust fan and humidifier are working a bit harder. 75-77 deg F, 50-60% RH. Not sure if the lights are to intense or if it’s purple coming through, but at the highest tops there seems to be a bit of discolouration on the newest growth, just at the tips of the new buds. But I’m looking really close and it may be purple, not brown. I’ll keep an eye on it and turn the lights down if symptoms worsen. This plant is growing strong and uniform. Average frost so far. Hopefully she keeps growing well until the end. Thanks for the views…keep calm and grow on!

Well I love this Ya Hemi hits very strong. Shit is dank and stinky and WILL put you on your ass! Trying out a totally new way of growing for me. Also to help with costs I decided to make a 5 gal tea reactor, to grow out the EM1 which will save me about 75% on all microbe products, and also save on feralization when used in conjunction with foliar sprays. Using grassroots LivingSocial pots and a new full organic mix. Fingers crossed as we get on the ya hemi organic express!

The Germination Odyssey of Blackberry Auto: A Grower's Diary Chapter 01 Greetings, fellow cultivators! Today, I bring you the enthralling tale of my Blackberry Auto's germination – a journey filled with anticipation, dedication, and a touch of magic. It all began with a tiny Blackberry Auto seed, a potential green marvel waiting to unfold. With the excitement of a horticultural explorer, I delicately placed the seed into the H2O oasis, where the dance of germination was set to commence. The water cradled the seed like a nurturing embrace, awakening the dormant life within. As the seed soaked in the liquid symphony, a subtle transformation took place. It absorbed the essence of life, swelling with the promise of a vibrant future. In those moments, I felt a connection with the very essence of growth – a humble seed evolving into a botanical masterpiece. The time had come to transfer this burgeoning life force into the next stage – the root riot. Placing the seed in this matrix of potential, I marveled at the intricate dance between life and the growing medium. The root riot cradled the seedling-to-be, creating a perfect haven for roots to stretch and explore. With the root riot as a launching pad, I introduced my Blackberry Auto to the dome of dreams. Inside this miniature greenhouse, the seedling began its ascent toward the light. Temperature: a cozy 28°C, humidity: a whopping 95%. The perfect conditions for a germination symphony, a crescendo of life echoing within the dome. Oh, the magic of 28°C! The ideal temperature for my Blackberry Auto to stretch its roots and unfurl its tiny leaves. It's fascinating how this golden number orchestrates the ballet of germination, a symphony of growth playing out in my humble cultivation space. As I stand before the thriving Blackberry Auto, I see not just a plant but a testament to the delicate balance of nature and nurture. The journey from seed to this radiant seedling is a reminder that each step is a chapter in a living story. In the coming weeks, I'll continue this saga – documenting every milestone, every challenge, and every triumph as my Blackberry Auto blossoms into a bountiful harvest. Join me in this horticultural adventure, where the language of plants is spoken, and the dance of growth unfolds. Stay tuned for more updates from the heart of my cannabis cultivation sanctuary!

Hola 🐴 Week went fast and nice. All girls have now roots in water and spare is catching. Purple nutz is biggest. Green has most roots. Edge is growing little weird but lets see. Spare is spurting. DLI around 25. Green and Purple Nutz in timelapse for couple days. With High Hopes 🍀

new beginning

Just hit day 10 of flower.this net has about 20% touching the 2nd trellis. And about 70% almost touching. One plant has a very big node spacing. Over all plants are healthy and have been given a second scarecrow method trim.

Alien vs triangle is taking longer than I thought she is in flushing now day 4! Trichomes are turning the rest of the way Amber! The whole place stinks and she's extremely sticky.
