Week 4 - Sometimes You Got To Lose To Gain Phase 2 - I took off the fan leaves so that the plant would redirect its energy into the stem and branches rather than the leaves. I also cut of the top heads so that the energy would go into the development of the 2 heads below.

Still steady away with her, no growth to get exited about really. Finished with all the topping and just keeping a level canopy while the growth on the second set of branches catches up. Especially the top branch on the pictures. Seems to be really held back compared to the opposite branch. I've defoliated quite a bit, just to clear some space and get light through to all the new growth. Just waiting it out now and gonna flip lights when everything is caught up. Collected plenty of pollen from the Mi5 to dust her with, going to try get one half pollinated and leave the other, probably get a few stray seeds on the other half but I don't mind really.

Day22, Tuesday Week 3 Both are growing quick now. Might have to clip some of the big fan leaves blocking light to the lower bud sites. Day27, Sunday, End of the week both getting bigger an bushier and drinking a lot more. Hulkberry started going into flower, so I expect it to stretch during next week.

This was the girls last week of Veg. ❤️ I did a big defoliation, the lit in my 4x4 custom SCROG netting and started tucking and bending the tops down to fill the spaces. They were looking pretty scraggly for a day or two after the defoliation, but within a few days the screen was filling out. I have a daily routine of lights on, tuck and bend, no weaving and then just before lights out I’ll do the same. Temps were good, watering has been vigorous. They are very thirsty! Feeding about 1 1/2 gallons every feed now, the 4 gallon pots are a bit undersized but I wanted to see what could Come of These slightly taller pots, rather than the wider regular sized pots. Haven’t had to add humidity this week, pretty consistent around 60%. At the end of the week I changed the light cycle to a 12/12 for flowering ❤️👊🇨🇦

Hello. All photos from flower day 6. On flower day 3 I switched the Sanlights up to 80%. On flower day 6 I sprayed the plants with Spruzit, to prevent any kind of insects. As you can see everything is okay besides that algae but nothing too bad so far. All under control. See you next week. ✌️

Great grow, didn’t grow her out as big as i could of due to testing strains on the first run, if i like the yield, flavour and aroma.. she gets returned to the garden. Love the blue cheese, very close to the UK Blue cheese. Well done to royal queen seeds on this one.0

Get high just by smelling them😵‍💫😶‍🌫️

Not much happen during this week. Plants look healthy and on a good track. They drink roughly 2l a day

*****DIVINE SEEDS ***** *****FRACTAL***** SPONSORED GROW Week 5 This week 5/5-5/11 Germination April 6. Vegetation Week 1 water only Week 2 water only Week 3 added recharge and TPS1 increased ppm to 570. Week 4 continues with recharge and TPS1. I added Fox Cal mag increasing ppm to 685 - 805. Week 5 TPS1 9ml/gal Recharge 5 ml/gal Fox Cal-mag 5 ml/gal This was an exciting week for my ladies. It started out with the usual feed and defoliation and training. With my upcoming vacation, I am going to be hardening off these ladies to relocate to their outside location. I checked the expected weather forecast for the week. Looks good to start hardening off. Partly cloudy with temps in the low to mid 80s just like in their tent. So that’s good. Night temperatures were in the 50-60s. This is much cooler than what they are used to as our house is at 73. They need to get used to what mother nature will provide. Our summers are hot and humid. I had planned to bring the plants back in the sunroom but since conditions were similar, I let them stay outside every night. And every night but 2 it rained. I did not water or feed nutrients this week. I am attempting the scrog technique on all plants. I am using a peony cage as the support structure. The cages are about 2 feet high. This may not be enough side or top support as she grows and may have to resort to tomato cages. Took pics May 6, 9, & 11 Fractal is a vigorous gal and gets very bushy after defoliation & training. Divine Seeds recommends keeping its Fractal profile wider and flatter. To achieve this, I am aggressively pinning down each branch coming off the main stalk while defoliating regularly to keep the top open. Today she has a beautiful, mounded canopy showing multiple bud sites. Her nodes are close but starting to spread out a bit. They remain even and balanced. Thank you @DivineSeeds Thanks for the visits, likes and comment, I appreciate all the plant love💚. Have fun & love what you grow 💚 Sending you good vibes of love, light and healing 💫 💫Natrona 💫 ***FRACTAL*** Rating: Fractal is an especially psychedelic strain that Divine Seeds developed for esoteric and mystical experiences, meditation and creativity. A potent and vivid landrace variety from Southern India was crossed with a sticky leaning Indica (mostly Afghani), then Skunk #1 joined this company. Their progeny underwent multiple selection experiments, until its massive built, resin concentration and hypnotizing powers reached an ultimate level. The result is now known as Fractal – resinous, spicy and productive. Best choice for commercial growing: a compromise between bigger yields and fast ripening! A great source of hashish that has something incense-like to its musky smell. Indoors expect 170 сm height, out of doors plants grow up to 200 сm. Fractal fits for all types of growing environment: grow boxes, hydroponic or aeroponic setups, outdoor plantations, balconies, terraces and green houses. For more weight it is recommended to train Fractal plants to broaden their structure and limit their vertical growth. For that purpose use ScroG or SoG, LST, FIM or topping, supercropping or mainlining – there are no limitations for the strain itself, but certainly low-stress methods are recommended to smaller samples. Fractal has an inherent immunity to molds and insect pests, but since its colas are thick, protect your plants from stale air. Also during rainy weeks your plantation may need to be covered. Ready for outdoor harvesting in October. Big and dense buds the color of olive, hunter green heavily coated with crystals. Whole Fractal buds smell hashy and earthy, while cedar and fruity hints are noticeable on breaking. Measure your portion carefully: the potency is above average! With Fractal you experience an overall stoning that either keeps you put or slows your motion down, also vertigo is possible. However, in moderate dosage the impact is described as a pleasant sensation of well-being and placidity. Perfect for spending a night by a bonfire without talking, therefore is more often enjoyed as a solo smoke. Efficiently relieves muscle spasms and seizures, inflammations, combats insomnia and increases your appetite. Up to 3 hours of altered state of mind can be expected. Best consumed at night time.

Another week down, time seems to be flying by. Can we just take a second to talk about the smell. OMG the fucking smell. Intense, bursting with orange, it's like I'm being waterboarded with Sunny D! Every time I open the tent, the smell literally jumps out, kicks me in the nuts, throws me in the corner and then runs wild all over the house. It's more of a feeling than a smell - You know when you arrive in a hot climate from a cool one and you step off the plane to that wall of heat? It's like that, but on your nose :) Nothing dramatic to report this week. Just beginning to ease off slightly on N levels. The week's schedule: MegaCrop: 4.75g / gallon Bud Explosion: 2g / gallon Calmag: 0.5ml / liter E.C: 2.1 PH: 6 Not really much to do other than light defoliation just to keep the air flowing. Buds are getting nice and fat and she seems healthy, I can pretty much be hands off from here on out. Catch you all again in a week!

Week 4 of the flowering phase has arrived, and last week flew by 🌬️🌱. The ladies are thriving, and the buds are now clearly visible! ✨ The flowers are starting to turn darker, which is an exciting sign 🍒. The first trichomes are already forming, hinting at a very potent strain 💎🔥. While the cherry aroma hasn’t come through yet, removing some leaves revealed an intense, waxy scent – very intriguing! 🌿👃 I’ll keep you updated with daily posts. Drop a like and stay tuned to see how the ladies develop 🌺📸. See you next week! Woche 4 der Blütephase ist da, und die letzte Woche ist wirklich wie im Flug vergangen 🌬️🌱. Die Ladies haben sich prächtig entwickelt, und jetzt kann man die Buds schon richtig gut erkennen! ✨ Die Blüten beginnen langsam, sich dunkel zu verfärben – ein vielversprechendes Zeichen 🍒. Auch die ersten Trichome sind schon sichtbar, was definitiv auf einen sehr potenten Strain hindeutet 💎🔥. Das Kirscharoma ist zwar noch nicht zu erkennen, aber beim Entfernen der Blätter wurde ein intensiver, wachsähnlicher Duft wahrgenommen – super spannend! 🌿👃 Ich halte euch weiterhin mit täglichen Updates auf dem Laufenden. Lasst ein Like da und bleibt dran, um zu sehen, wie sich die Mädels entwickeln 🌺📸. Bis nächste Woche!

Es ist super heiß Sommer 2024. Nachtphase ist Tags und umgekehrt. Ich benutze eine Klimaanlagen.

She looks and smells great.

D29 Did top dressing with bone and kelp meal as well as worm castings. D31 Performed a little more LST, a few more days and I will let her do her thing. D32 More LST exposed lower nodes and evened out the canopy. D33 Removed all bonsai wire and rolled down the rim of the pot to even it out with to soil, more airflow. D35 Not much growth but overall looking pretty good. Heatwave last couple days keep temperatures higher than desired.

Hey everyone 🤗. This week was harvested properly 😍. All of them are harvested, except for the two Tropicanna Banana (they will be on tomorrow). All finished crop images follow little by little as soon as they have dried enough and have got their actual bud structure 😃. I wish you much fun with the diary, stay healthy Ges and let it grow 🌱

Alle 5 Samen wurden in ein Glas mit Wasser und 2 Tropfen Seedbooster von Plagron für ca 20 Stunden eingelegt. Nach ca 20h im Wasserglas ging es für die Ladys in kleine Anzuchttöpfe. Nach 3 Tagen in den Anzuchttöpfen haben 4 Ladys und nach 4 Tagen hat dann auch die 5 Lady das Licht der Welt erblickt. Nächste Woche werden die Ladys dann in jeweils 8l Stofftöpfen Platz finden. Durch die kurze Vegetation sollten die 8L Töpfe ausreichen. Die 4 Ladys die den stabilsten Eindruck machen und sich am meisten im Wachstum ähneln werden behalten. Das Substratgemisch besteht aus ca 70% BioBizz Lightmix und ca 30% Cocos mit Perlien. Ich gebe bei dem Run etwas mehr Cocos hinzu damit das Substrat noch etwas luftiger wird und die Ladys es etwas leichter haben ihre Wurzeln zu bilden und damit vielleicht einen kleinen Wachstumsschub zu erhalten. Auf das ganze kommen dann noch ca 10% Megaworm von Plagron und ein wenig BioGrow das es den Ladys anfangs an nichts fehlt. Die Ladys haben leider etwas weniger Zeit für ihr Wachstum, weil der Contest zeitlich begrenzt ist. Der letzte Grow hat leider auch etwas Zeit in Anspruch genommen. Mal gucken, ich hoffe das es reicht. Mit FarRed als Einschlafhilfe in der Blütephase kann man vielleicht ein paar Tage einsparen. Ich hoffe auf das Beste. Am Ende muss man ja auch etwas Glück mit den Phenos haben. Angegossen wurde mit 1g/L BioEnhancer und 1ml/L PowerRoots. Der ph-Wert wurde vor dem gießen auf 6.0 korrigiert. Jede Lady bekam für den Anfang ca 30-40ml in die Anzuchttöpfe. Mit einer kleinen Heizmatte und den Kuppeln auf den Töpfen wird für das warm/feuchte Klima gesorgt, das die Ladys anfangs benötigen um zu keimen. Am Tag an dem die Ladys das Licht der Welt erblickt haben, kamen die Kuppeln ab und die Ladys spüren dann auch ihre ersten Luftzüge.

Day 22. Heavy training in time lapse of two days will happen. Some girls are shooting 6th node and its time for heavy training, but ... pots are heavy and i have to wait till plants will be more flimsy, not so crunchy and fragile , need 20-30 hours till i get there. Will update after most work is done. Still no feed. Day 23. 6 girls got topped, decided to go lazy way and just simply bend them a bit, tuck them, top them a bit and bush out by week 8 for nice flowers. Tomorrow last pure water, next watering , think last day of week, will be BioBizz week 3 schedule , but i will use Root Juice a bit longer than advised, i just don't start so early most of the time. Runtz are very strong, Asias has fattest leaves and even Dreams starts to look funky. Day 24. Daft Punks aaaaaaaaa, what have you done ?????? So f@cking SAD !!!!! On other side girls fly, can't add anything else, today last pure water, first feed in 3-4 days !!! Day 26. Size of some leaves amazing, whenever you tuck them - they return and cast shadows ... All air is on, now still need to dry washing inside to keep RH in high 70s .. Tomorrow heavy training !!! Day 27. Heavy training, last pure water. All four smallest plants got theirs toping too. Couple leaves here and there, but mostly tucking and exposing for all plants and that's all training for now . Next week feed and maybe light defoliation. Happy Growing !!!
