Day 72: The Finale 🌿🌟 It’s finally time. My very first grow is coming to an end—at least the cultivation phase. The plant is now ready for harvest, and I can’t believe how incredible this journey has been. I never expected to enjoy the whole process so much—from nurturing the plants to watching them grow and evolve. I’m absolutely hooked and can’t wait to dive into the next steps: harvesting, drying, curing, and of course, starting a new grow soon with fresh ideas and experiments! While it may not be the largest yield, the quality of the buds speaks for itself. The time, love, and care I’ve put into this grow is visible, and I’m pretty proud of the results. I’ll admit, I was a bit impatient at times (which I think every first-timer can relate to 😅), but the experience was priceless. Here are a few interesting highlights from my trimming and harvest process: 1️⃣ Dark Phase Before Harvest Two days before harvest, I put the plant in complete darkness to encourage resin production. I'm not sure if it really made a difference, but it was worth trying! 2️⃣ Wet Trim vs. Dry Trim I decided to go for a wet trim because the buds were really dense, and I wanted to avoid any risk of mold. I’ve read that wet trimming can speed up drying and may slightly impact the quality, but this is part of the learning experience. Next time, I’ll try a dry trim for comparison! 3️⃣ Yield Update Wet, the total came in at 97grams from my plant. Trimming took around three hours, and it was actually a lot of fun, despite the time commitment. 4️⃣ Curing Plan The buds are now hanging in the tent for about 8 days. Once dried, they’ll go into jars with Boveda Packs (62% humidity) for another 3 weeks of curing. I'll update the smoke report once they’re fully cured, but I’ve already had a sample of the same strain from a friend, and I can say it’s pretty amazing. Final Thoughts on My Grow 🌱✨ As mentioned earlier, this grow has been an absolutely incredible experience, and it has definitely set me on a path to jump right into my next grow. There were ups and downs along the way, such as over-pruning, which I believe stressed the plants a bit. Additionally, I think they could have benefited from an extra week to mature. We also faced many temperature fluctuations this summer, which impacted the plants due to external weather conditions. I'm really pleased with the quality of the buds. The quantity is okay—I can’t fully gauge it yet—but I’m sure there’s more potential to unlock. I've gained valuable experience in what worked well and what didn’t. Overall, the countless lessons learned during this grow far outweigh the few mistakes made. I'm incredibly proud of my first results! As this long journey comes to an end, I want to thank everyone who followed along. I hope you enjoyed all the content. In that spirit, happy growing, and see you next time! 🌟

Buds are starting to swell more. Terps are in your face! VPD 1.32 kpa

Hey growmies, first week of flower and i pushed my comfort zone and defoliated a lot, I also taken off most lower nodes, as my previous plants have always had a bit too many popcorn buds. Weaved most of the branches through a trellis, I need a better one but it still worked out okay. I will probably be taking off the odd fan leaf every now and then for the next few weeks, aswell as ill try to keep her as even as possible theres very little signs of flower yet, so i think she'll be stretching soon That's it for this week Growmies, I am looking for a reputable seedbank for Black Diamond Kush, a strain I fell in love with after I bought it in a Candy Store in Flatbush, NYC the week I met my Wife, I would really like to grow it myself and chase that nostalgia, If you know of any HMU

Day 44 - March 25, 2021 Started noticing a couple gnats in our house. It's been warm outside and they are starting to come out. Unfortunately saw some in the room as well and can only assume there are many more feeding on the ladies. Gave foliar spray using Bee Safe Organicide. Gave all the girls a thorough haircut today and worked on trying to get canopy under control. Vegatation was very thick. Doesn't look like deficency issue with F7 is spreading. Continuing to watch for any changes indicating the problem is still ongoing. Gave foliar spray (1:00AM): * Bee Safe Organicide Watering: 03:00AM-3:10AM ~0.33 gallons per pot 11:00AM-11:10AM ~0.33 gallons per pot 7:00PM-7:10PM ~0.33 gallons per pot Reservoir: * tested 10:45PM * 2.21 EC * 5.9 PH * 73.94F (with ambient temps being higher, res temp is higher as well) * ~13-gallons remaining before topping off * Added ~5-gallons (solution mixed 3/24) (11:00PM) * 2.16 EC (after topping off) * 5.9 pH (after topping off) * 73.40F (after topping off) * ~18-gallons remaining (after topping off) Lights: * Gavita LEDs On 20-hours (8:00AM - 4:00AM) ** 8:00AM Lights On (100%) ** 1:00AM-4:00AM (Reduced light intensity to 50% for foliar spray) * Gavita LEDs Off 4-hours (4:00AM - 8:00AM) * UV Bars Off 24-hours Air control: 69F-82F (80F AVG) (Lights On) 66F (Lights Off) 50%-65% (56% AVG) humidity (Lights On) 60%-70% RH (Lights Off) ~1181PPM CO2 (Lights On) ~690PPM CO2 (Lights Off) Day 45 - March 26, 2021 Didn't do much in the garden today. Tucked a couple branches under trellis netting and that's pretty much it. Hoping will have the trellis on each cage filled out by next weekend. Nutrient deficiency with F7 seems to be resolved. New growth not showing any issues. Found a dead gnat on a leaf. Bee Safe foliar spray seems to have done the trick. Continuing to keep close eye out for pests. Mixed of nutrient solution (11:00PM): ** 50-gallons RO water (0.06 EC) ** 10ML h2o2 per gallon ** 5ML Botanicare Cal-mag+ per gallon (0.54 EC after Cal-Mag) ** 0.5ML Mills Nutrients Vitalize per gallon ** 10ML Mills Nutrients Basis A & B per gallon ** 4ML Mills Nutrients Start-R per gallon ** 1.25ML pHup per gallon (bring PH from ~5.1 to 5.8) ** ~2.02 EC ** 5.8/5.9 pH Watering: 03:00AM-3:10AM ~0.33 gallons per pot 11:00AM-11:10AM ~0.33 gallons per pot 7:00PM-7:10PM ~0.33 gallons per pot Reservoir: * tested 11:30PM * 2.16 EC * 5.8/5.9 PH * 73.94F (with ambient temps being higher, res temp is higher as well) * ~10-gallons remaining * Didn't top off today Lights: * Gavita LEDs On 20-hours (8:00AM - 4:00AM) ** 8:00AM Lights On (100%) * Gavita LEDs Off 4-hours (4:00AM - 8:00AM) * UV Bars On 8-hours (12:00PM - 8:00PM) Air control: 69F-82F (81F AVG) (Lights On) 66F (Lights Off) 50%-65% (60% AVG) humidity (Lights On) 60%-70% RH (Lights Off) ~1268PPM CO2 (Lights On) ~620PPM CO2 (Lights Off) Day 46 - March 27, 2021 Did some more pruning to remove thick foliage and open up nodes. Continuing to tuck branches through trellis. Expect will be ready to go into flower in apprxomately a week. CO2 tank ran out and co2 levels dropped to 330PPM for the first couple of hours of lights on. Replaced tank at 10AM. Watering: 03:00AM-3:10AM ~0.33 gallons per pot 11:00AM-11:10AM ~0.33 gallons per pot 7:00PM-7:10PM ~0.33 gallons per pot Reservoir: * topped off with ~18-gallons * tested 9:30PM * 2.06 EC * 5.9 PH * 73.94F (with ambient temps being higher, res temp is higher as well) * ~20-gallons remaining Lights: * Gavita LEDs On 20-hours (8:00AM - 4:00AM) ** 8:00AM Lights On (100%) * Gavita LEDs Off 4-hours (4:00AM - 8:00AM) * UV Bars On 8-hours (12:00PM - 8:00PM) Air control: 69F-82F (80F AVG) (Lights On) 66F (Lights Off) 55%-70% (64% AVG) humidity (Lights On) 60%-70% RH (Lights Off) ~1397PPM CO2 (Lights On) ~330PPM CO2 (Lights Off) Day 47 - March 28, 2021 Didn't do much in the garden today. Deficiency issue on new growth is continuing to newest nodes on F7 and is starting to show in F6, F2, and F3 as well. Also noticed a few leaves with small tip of nutrient burn. Flushed F2, F3, F6, and F7 until runoff EC was equal to input. F1,F4, F5, and F8 look good but will flush those tomorrow as well just in case. Flushed with: * RO Water (starting EC 0.05) * 0.5ML Mills Nutrients Vitalize per gallon * 5ML Cal-Mag+ per gallon * pH 5.8 * EC 0.53 Watering: 03:00AM-3:10AM ~0.33 gallons per pot 11:00AM-11:10AM ~0.33 gallons per pot 7:00PM-7:10PM ~0.33 gallons per pot Reservoir: * tested 8:30PM * 2.06 EC * 5.9 PH * 74.48F * ~13-gallons remaining Lights: * Gavita LEDs On 20-hours (8:00AM - 4:00AM) ** 8:00AM Lights On (100%) * Gavita LEDs Off 4-hours (4:00AM - 8:00AM) * UV Bars On 8-hours (12:00PM - 8:00PM) Air control: 69F-82F (79F AVG) (Lights On) 66F (Lights Off) 55%-70% (65% AVG) humidity (Lights On) 60%-70% RH (Lights Off) ~1312PPM CO2 (Lights On) ~1292PPM CO2 (Lights Off) Day 48 - March 29, 2021 Flushed F1, F4, F5, and F8 until runoff EC was equal to input.

Gave Foliar Spray Foliar Spray: * 1 Gallon RO Water (EC 0.08) * 10ML CalMag+ per Gallon * 0.5ML Mills Nutrients Vitalize per gallon * PH 6.0 * EC 1.19 Watering: 03:00AM-3:10AM ~0.33 gallons per pot 11:00AM-11:10AM ~0.33 gallons per pot 7:00PM-7:10PM ~0.33 gallons per pot Reservoir: * tested 8:00PM * 2.05 EC * 5.9 PH * 73.76F * Topped off to approximately 20-gallons Lights: * Gavita LEDs On 20-hours (8:00AM - 4:00AM) ** 8:00AM Lights On (100%) * Gavita LEDs Off 4-hours (4:00AM - 8:00AM) * UV Bars On 8-hours (12:00PM - 8:00PM) Air control: 69F-82F (76F AVG) (Lights On) 66F (Lights Off) 55%-70% (70% AVG) humidity (Lights On) 60%-75% RH (Lights Off) ~1288PPM CO2 (Lights On) ~793PPM CO2 (Lights Off) Day 50 - March 31, 2021 Deficiency Issues: Still having issues with what looks like Zinc deficiency. Also found 4 of 5 fan leaves with Calcium deficiency over the last couple of days. Runoff is PH 5.8 and EC is 0.78. EC in runoff has been very low. I'm pretty confident it's not a PH issue at this point. Seems plants are rapidily soaking up the nutrients in the water. I also found 8 or 9 fan leaves with slight nutrient burn a few days ago. Nutrient burn seems to have tapered off and haven't noticed any spreading. Going to try adding an additional watering to the schedule to see what happens. I'm hesitant to mix stronger nutrients due to nutrient burn I started to see earlier this week. At the same time, need to figure out the cause of the nutrient deficiencies. I'm currently using the Light Feeding Schedule from Mills Nutrients (says "light", but is still 2.06 EC including 0.54 EC for water + CalMag) Need to switch to flower soon but need to figure out deficiency issues before the switch. Defoliation: * Removed quite a bit of fan leaves suffocating nodes. Girls are 10lbs lighter. Despite the nutrient issues, the girls have been filling out fast. Did a timelapse over the past couple days and can see significant growth in a short period. Gave Foliar Spray Foliar Spray: * 1 Gallon RO Water (EC 0.08) * 10ML CalMag+ per Gallon * 0.5ML Mills Nutrients Vitalize per gallon * PH 6.0 * EC 1.19 Watering: 03:00AM-3:10AM ~0.33 gallons per pot 11:00AM-11:10AM ~0.33 gallons per pot 8:00PM-8:10PM ~0.33 gallons per pot Reservoir: * tested 11:30PM * 2.06 EC * 5.9 PH * 73.40F * Topped off to approximately 20-gallons Lights: * Gavita LEDs On 18-hours (10:00AM - 4:00AM) ** 10:00AM Lights On (100%) ** 11:00AM Reduced intensity to 50% for foliar spray ** 12:00PM Increase intensity to 75% ** 1:00PM Increased intensity to 100% * Gavita LEDs Off 6-hours (4:00AM - 10:00AM) * UV Bars On 8-hours (12:00PM - 8:00PM) Air control: 69F-82F (77F AVG) (Lights On) 66F (Lights Off) 55%-70% (67% AVG) humidity (Lights On) 60%-75% RH (Lights Off) ~1574PPM CO2 (Lights On) ~880PPM CO2 (Lights Off)

June 25 - transplanting to 35 LT pot! 💣🔞 June 27 - LST&HST Day! 💚 June 28 - The plant is growing great and fastly! 🛫

Chopped today will updates weights and everything else after a week of hanging will trim and weigh then glad to make it to the end looking forward to the next grow. Super happy with this way more then I was expecting from this grow

Week 6 day 2: Week 6 Video (Clock Dial LST Tech): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lz-Z-PbSFWk Tied the lower branches down to the rim of the pots to space them out for flowering and ensure flat, level canopy. Definitely going for at least 8 weeks, maybe 9-10, before the flip. Want to root out these 5.4 gallon air pots and see what kind of yield I can get. Removed first node of each branch entirely & a few scattered leaves now shading, topped all but 1 of the plants at the pot edge; A couple didn't quite make it that long because amazon decided to lose my soft ties and the wire ties cut through the stem. It'll be fine either way. Not happy with the runty two, but three out of five are gorgeous. Shame there's little point in keeping a clone mother with a 6 plant limit. Only Recharge once this week because I'm too snowed in to go get purified water; the PPM here is already 660-700, didn't want to add much to the water so I just put bio rhizotonic and pHed it. Updates will happen live @ https://twitch.tv/jaindoh and be saved under my vod highlights. Aiming to make super introductory tutorials (as I am no Guru) and get constructive feedback on my techniques. Trying to convert smokers to growers!

Hallo meine Garten Freunde. Ich hoffe euch geht’s allen gut, leider kommen die Abschluss Berichte jetzt nach und nach, weil einige Strains ein bisschen länger brauchen als andere. Ich bin zufrieden mit diesem Grow wie er verlaufen ist, ich glaube der Ertrag hätte höher ausfallen können, aber das liegt nicht an der Sorte oder an dem Equipment. Es liegt meistens immer an dem Mensch was der draus macht, und da ich noch mein Optimum suche kann einiges gut oder schlecht verlaufen. Aber wie ich erwähnt habe bin ich zufrieden. Die Blüten haben sich zum Schluss richtig schön entwickelt und sind schön kompakt geworden, jetzt wo die Buds getrocknet sind, sind die auch Steinhart, wenn man die Buds auf eine Oberfläche fallen lässt hört man ein richtiges klock Geräusch. Das Blatt zu Blüten Verhältnis ist sehr gut. Diesen Strain würde ich wieder anbauen, dann aber nur mit einer Trainings Methode. Ich denke das war auch das Problem das ich die Pflanzen zu klein gehalten habe. Trotzdem haben die Ladys mir schöne dicke Buds geschenkt, es gab fast keine Popcorn Buds. Wenn ich eine Trainings Methode empfehlen würde dann Fimming oder Topping das haben alle sehr gut weggesteckt. Mit unter Düngung kommt sie gut zurecht aber nach einer Zeit zeigt sie dir was sie möchte. Das entlauben war auch kein Problem. Das einzige was sie nicht so gerne mag ist nasse Füße, aber auch davon erholen sich die Pflanzen relativ schnell wieder. Es ist eine sehr stabile Sorte, der man einiges abverlangen kann bis sie zickt. Da hat Royal Queen Seeds sich selber übertroffen und eine sehr robuste Sorte kreiert. Ein Riesen Respekt und ein Riesen Dankeschön für diese tolle Sorte und das ihr sie mit dem Rest der Welt teilt. Ein Riesen Dankeschön geht an James und RQS vielen Dank für die gute Zusammenarbeit und die Unterstützung.👍🏻✌️🏼 James sie machen eine tolle Arbeit Vielen Dank für alles machen sie weiter so und Royal Queen Seeds. Es werden in der nächsten Zeit noch ein paar schöne Tagebücher hier bei GD geben, ihr dürft alle gespannt sein. Ein großes Dankeschön geht auch an die Community von Growdiaries vielen Dank für eure Hilfe und Unterstützung, ihr seid die besten und das sage ich mit voller Überzeugung bleibt alle so wie ihr seit. Habt Spaß an dem was uns geschenkt wurde, nämlich eine großartige Pflanze die vielen Menschen auf dieser Welt helfen kann. Peace das war’s fürs erste bei diesem Tagebuch von mir bis dann. Wenn ich euer Interesse geweckt hab dann findet ihr hier diese tolle Sorte und noch viele andere mega Genetiken von Royal Queen Seeds. Dazu kommt noch ein fetter Rabatt von20% was will man mehr. Viel Spaß damit: GROWERS20 https://www.royalqueenseeds.de/ Nix verpassen und gleich hin.

Apr 20: They hanging out at 65% rh and 65F.. Going for 7-10 day dry… No wet trim, cut plants in half and hung… Very happy with density and resin production… Can’t wait to jar and test in 2-3 weeks… I feel comfortable with this strain, I think it’s time to move on… Really wanna run some Mephisto seeds….

What do you think? What is the problem of the plant? Did it suffer? Or is near to the end?

They grew so FAST! It had rained a lot the day before and it was raining that day in the video as well. The wind kept the temperature pretty low and lukil they didn't need that much sunlight yet.

This thing was very easy to grow. Liked low PPMs in flower. Around 600 was plenty for her. Will report taste and effects when curing is complete.

2/28 - she got a feeding and I removed the shoots starting at each bottom node on every top. 6.0ph 3/3 - I took off the leaves that were at the nodes where I removed the shoots earlier this week. Now onto gaining height. Looking tight! 3/5 - Flush feeding

8 semana en realidad, a una semana del corte

A great heavy yielding strain. An awesome smoke. Loved the purple at the end and the taste is great too. Got a cerebral high with no strong negative effects.

I think all is going well. Please comment if you see anything that I need to address.

Blüte Woche 8 Die Pflanzen entwickeln sich mega In dieser Woche habe ich denn EC wieder von 3,0 auf 2,5 heruntergesetzt. Bei der Pflanze hinten Rechts gibt es keine weiteren Verschlechterungen oder Verbesserungen zu erkennen, aber sie entwickelt sich auch weiter, nur langsamer und anders :-). Trichome (THC) entwickelt sich sehr heftig.
