Week 2 of flower baby!! She is still stretching up. I just gave the first feeding of the Bloom recipe from Advanced Nutrients. I waited 2 weeks to start the Bloom because I heard it uses a lot of Nitrogen during the stretch phase. I'm pretty sure there is some truth to that but according to the labels, the Bloom part A & B both have Nitrogen in them also so I'm not sure if it was necessary but I don't think it should do any harm either. 09/11/2025- She is looking beautiful! I'm really happy with how things have turned out, I was a little worried during weeks 4 & 5 after I broke a stem and cut another one 😅 but she has filled out nicely and you can hardly tell she's missing 2 stems. Buds are starting to form. I repositioned the oscillating fan and lowered the trellis by an inch or so. 09/13/2025- She looks very happy! She is a nice lush green and leaves are nice and soft. I'm pretty sure she has stopped growing vertically for the most part, I feel real good about how much headroom I have left. I can't wait for these buds to fatten up and change color 😁

Week 1 - 01/01 to 01/08 2021 HUGE THANKS TO @MARSHYDROLED and @VIPARSPECTRALED! New surge protectors/heavy duty timers/the good cords. The Purple Lemonade by @Fast_Buds is right on pace, way larger than the LSD-25 next to it but that has to do with genetics. Will give it a week or so for it to really settle in with a root base before cleaning out my 5gal RootPouch pots from the last grow and getting them transferred into their final homes. I have all my seedlings under the P1500 from Vipar as my veg light for the first few weeks to a month. It's SO nice to not have a blurple anymore, the light is way better in my room and on the eyes. The new diodes had every single seedling grow more in 6 hours than it did in the first 7 days under the blurp LED. The Purple Lemonade sprouted its second set of leaves by the time I woke up from my nap 😂 I noticed a bit of spotting on the Dark Devil in my other diary so I added some Hydrogen Peroxide to the spray bottle and it cleared up. All four have been getting constant spritzing from the spray bottle to keep humidity up. Have no doubt the new lights will make the plant/overall yield. Thanks for stopping in! Throw down a like and/or follow so i can return the favour 🙌 -- Check out my Diary of the Year 2020 entry 🙏 https://growdiaries.com/diaries/54258-fastbuds-original-auto-sour-diesel-grow-journal-by-glazedgrow IG: @GlazedGrow CannaBuzz: @GlazedGrow

Hello Diary. The second week of flowering is behind me. 💪 As I announced last week, this week I did my first defoliation. I removed all the leaves from the lower branches and thus allowed her better airflow since there are three plants in the box. It was getting a little crowded already. 😏 As can be seen in the pictures, the flowers are developing nicely and have started to take on a fruity scent. 😋 Watering is every third day, when each plant in the box receives approximately 2.5 liters of water. I started adding CalMg preventively, 1.5 ml / lit and continuing with BioBizz, I will add it by feeling. I will see how the plants will react to this. Here's what the week looked like: 23/10/2020 - Day 29. Watering. This time I only added CalMg without BioBizz. p.H I regulated to 6.4 and the temperature of the water I water with is always around 20 degrees. Temp / Humidity on the farm - 26.5 degrees and 51% humidity. 24/10/2020 - Day 30. Defoliation. As I wrote earlier, I cleaned the leaves on the lower branches and allowed better airflow and easier watering. 👍 26/10/2020 - Day 32. Watering. I always prepare about 8 liters of water with which I water all three plants. This time I added both CalMg and BioBizz. p.H. - 6.4 Temp / Humidity on the farm - 25.4 degrees and 44% humidity. 29/10/2020 - Day 35. Photographing and watering. I took photos for this week just in the box. I think I will only take photos on a black background for the last two weeks of flowering so as not to disturb them too much. I then watered the plants only with water with regulated p.H at 6.4. That's all for this week, so far everything is great and I hope it will continue that way. See you soon. 🙌

Our Zamnesia photoperiod plants have also started their journey into the magical flowering period, this is the first week. ---- The general environmental conditions are good, the heat has increased a bit again but for the first weeks of flowering it is not a big problem, let's remember to never exceed 27 degrees centigrade in the last 4 weeks to avoid jeopardizing the quality of the flowers. If necessary, open the growbox but never let it exceed 27-30 degrees where 30 is already a lot. The good thing is that as soon as the lights are turned off the change is already visible a bit and as autumn progresses we will also improve. The humidity is fluctuating but we try to control it with two dehumidifiers when necessary, pushing both possibly not into the growbox but directly into the room. (I dehumidify the room and the air in the growbox should also be dehumidified) - — Our two Runtz have an obvious characteristic, like their F1 and normal autoflowering sisters they are hungry, so hungry I want fertilizers for flowering like assatanate and if you don't give them you can see the signs, but I know them and I know how to keep them under --- Technique chosen both plants grow straight --- Feeding Program - The fertilizers are always Plagron and I am following the table that I generated on the site depending on the substrate chosen. Create your card and follow it, never be presumptuous my friend as I have been in the past, follow the card and look at the plants, not all need the same amount of fertilizer. We have arrived at the moment to give a good dose of ferrò in the first weeks of flowering, already of race life not sprayed but mixed with fertilizers. ---- https://plagron.com/en - Power Roots - 1ml/l - Alga Bloom - 4 ml/l - Pure Zym - 1 ml/l - Sugar Royal - 1ml/l - Vita Race - 5 ml/l --- Dehumidifier is now running between 50% - 55 % --- The 100% Organic pack by Plagron can be found on Zamnesia at the link: https://www.zamnesia.io/it/11457 -pla gron-easy-pack-natural.html --- We have removed the deumi diifier and now the values ​​​​range from 45 to 60% we will put the dehumidifiers into operation in the 3/4 week of bloom // Strain Description // Guys, we have really reached a turning point!

Today is day 22 of flower. Currently I am on the 5th day of a flush with just water at ph of 5.9. Two more days we will go back to regular nutes. She is stacking up nice at this point couldn’t be happier with how well the plant thrived. It’s like there was never any issues. Currently wishing I cleaned up the bottom of the plant more. This plant has been such and easy grow thanks to the genetics I’m sure. Looks like she will yield nicely. It’s been a little cold at night here lately but she is taking it well

It's that time again – the Week 4 report for our Power Buds competition, and let me tell you, it's been an exciting week of growth and cultivation! Our verdant companion, Jelousy, has been flourishing like a botanical superstar. Now, let's dive into a decision I made this week – the transplantation. While some may opt for the instant gratification of planting directly into their final pots, I've chosen the path less traveled. Jelousy has been gently ushered into a larger pot, not yet her final abode. Why, you ask? Well, let's talk roots! Transplanting into a larger but not final pot is like giving our plant a roomier apartment without handing her the keys to the mansion just yet. It encourages the development of a robust root system, allowing Jelousy to establish a solid foundation for future growth. It's the horticultural equivalent of laying down the groundwork for a skyscraper. And speaking of roots, let's chat about the magic touch we've added during the transplant – the Aptus Holland Mycor Mix. This isn't just any mix; it's a microbial powerhouse that works wonders beneath the soil surface. Picture it as the unseen orchestra in the symphony of plant growth. The mycorrhizal fungi in Aptus Holland Mycor Mix form a symbiotic relationship with the plant roots. They extend the root system, enhancing nutrient and water absorption, while the plant provides the fungi with sugars. It's a harmonious dance of give-and-take, resulting in a healthier and more resilient plant. Applying this mix during transplanting is like giving Jelousy a team of loyal assistants, working tirelessly to ensure she receives the nutrients she needs to thrive. It's nature's collaboration at its finest. Now, let's talk visuals! I've prepared a mini video report showcasing the awe-inspiring beauty of Jelousy. Her leaves are lush, her stems are sturdy, and those roots—oh, those roots—are reaching for greatness. Check out the video link to witness the botanical magic in action. As we soak in the visual feast, let's extend our heartfelt gratitude to Zamnesia and Plagron for making this journey possible. Their support is the compass guiding us through the green wilderness. And, of course, a round of applause for the incredible Grow Diaries community. Your shared passion and knowledge create an atmosphere of growth and learning. To my fellow contestants and growers, may your plants continue to thrive, and your dreams of a flourishing harvest come to fruition. Here's to a week of roots reaching deep, leaves stretching high, and the joy of watching our botanical companions flourish. Stay green, stay inspired, and keep cultivating those dreams! As always, thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all. This journey of mine would just not be the same without you guys. The love and support are very much appreciated, and I feel honored and blessed with you all in my life !!! With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself and always do things expecting nothing in return, with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will respond in ways you can’t even dream of . Friendly reminder: all you see here is pure research and for educational purposes only. Genetics - Jelousy @Zamnesia Nutrients @Plagron Light - @viparspectra P2000 Room size - 3x3 - 0,9x0,9

Sept 24th - carried out some LST on the (d)P this morning. Looking pretty darn healthy. Bigger than Natural Mystic and a week behind. This plant really established itself last week - possible 1/2 volume feed tonight 2.75L h2o/molasses ***Oct 8 is Lights-out. Plants go into the dark for 36 hours*** (northern lights finish is going to take toooo long, enough. Into the 2’ tent. small photoperiod GMG to take its place) 25th a.m. - fed half volume h2o/molasses - this plant has opened up and is responding to something -applied some fresh LST anchors, go 26th - carried out a good LST session to finish yesterdays organizing. Looking real sharp! 27th - plant looks ready for a big feed tonight, if the soil allows; 6.5L - with a flowering deadline approaching (Oct 8 or b4) its great that I’m able to get some bigger nutrient volumes into the mix. Working my way towards one 2 gallon feed before lites-out if everything lines-up. - photo uploaded of repair site from first topping. (Uploaded discovery photo as well) Sept 29th a.m. - waited till the Pot was actually lighter (extra 2 days) & fed (d)P 6.5L h2o / nutes - little clean-up on the LST, she is sharp looking and getting round - seeing the pot actually lighter confirms we are not drowning the plant and confirms we are working near the dry side. - 15 gallon pot stays right where it was, and looks like its gonna NEED THE SPACE 30th - last day week 6 - sister plants have indicated a build-up of Salts (n things) is happening in the Soil and I will be flushing the plant tonight as a bit of preventative Maintenance, ahead of any build-up issues going into Flower. - she looks strong and ready. Lites-out is a week away - Foliar misting has been reduced to ~ Twice a week - Flush and some Molasses are going to set this one in motion

Great week both inside the tent and out this week. Inside they've been fattening and frosting up like crazy. Carl 1 is 50/50 on pistils and still mostly clear trichomes, I'm thinking 2-3 weeks. UKBS 1 is 80/20 on pistils and starting to cloud a little more, I'm thinking 1-2 weeks in that department. Outside, I've built a little greenhouse thing for the plants to chill in, out of the extreme winds. They've been acclimatizing fairly well to the low night temps and very hot days, but that's not to say they're entirely thrilled with it. Hopefully they take fully and flower out well. EOS Rebel T5 shots coming soon, tomorrow or the next day. 6/24/2021- Had some rain overnight, structure held up and kept the moisture out. Came outside to totally dry plants, and it'd been raining for several hours. 6/25/2021- Got the EOS T5 out tonight, got some real good shots of both plants. Carl 1's HUGENESS and UKBS 1's frostiness are definitely showcased well in my opinion. -Timelapse is out this week. Should only be another couple weeks on the indoor plants, probably not enough for a month. (unfortunate as the youtube "Month" Timelapse is going up this week.) 6/29/2021 - Fade on both plants coming in nicely. Purple and yellow on Carl 1, and a much darker color scheme on UKBS 1.

don't have a lot of experience growing but it was easy to grow my only issue was some bud rot caused by catapilars. It's life seed to harvest was 100 days flowering was 52 days. The buds are nice it smells good i feel like it could have been better im not sure what it needed but its pretty good for my first time. Will report back after it dries and cures for a bit. Weighed 317g wet trimmed no main stalk just buds on branches

November 6, 2021 The Quick Critical is taking off!!! I started feeding some nutrients this week and she really seemed to like it. I could flip her to flower now, but I'm going to wait another 1-2 weeks so the other two ladies can veg longer (and to give the autos a chance to finish). Critical Sour looks like she is ready to start rocking, I expect to see significant growth this upcoming week. CBD Medi Kush is finally starting to look like a cannabis plant! I have no idea what caused the delayed growth in the initial couple of weeks, but she's seems on track now. Lots of good growth in the past couple of days. This morning when looking at her closely I noticed she is growing two stems. This is going to be fun to watch how she develops. I just hope she doesn't herm out later. Neither of the two Dr Bruce Banner seeds nor the one CBD Lemon Aid seed I tried planting ever popped. This is now a 3 plant diary.

Loved it all from the start! Could see from the rqs pot it thrived and the organic nutrients made it so much more alive! I mean I had little effort in her just had to water and add boost and I did that every fortnight! I’m so for organic now may try a one part solution next! Glad of the weights had so many nice dense buds on her and the initial taste was sweet and fruity and that’s before a full cure! Royal queen seeds deserve there place on the map 1 million percent

Broke one of the original 8 growth tips early on, but she's grown nicely into her heptagon shape. Living soil still seems to have too much nitrogen for her, hopefully vegging her a few more weeks before flipping will burn through some of it. I've had to "mow the lawn" of clover a couple times now just to keep good airflow, and that fallen cover crop is starting to make a nice mulch...which in turn makes watering in coco a little less stressful. We're in late veg now, so tent is holding steady at: - PPFD = 600 - VPD = 1.0 - Temp = 82 F (28 C)

Seconda settimana di solo acqua, sono al 78 giorno e la pianta continua a fare crescere nuove gemme nella cola principale, è la mia prima coltivazione e sono completamente inesperto, ho fatto germinare il seme in un panno umido, messo in un bicchiere e dopo 2 settimane circa lo ho travasato in un vaso da 6l con del terriccio comprato al discount e ( 6 uova marce ) non ho utilizzato nessun fertilizzante per la fase vegetativa e innaffiato con acqua del rubinetto. Dopo la 5 settimana sono spuntati i primi peletti bianchi e allora ho utilizzato Easy Bloom boster fioritura di RQS per altre 4/5 settimane, poi ho comprato un misuratore di pH digitale scoprendo che il pH dell'acqua era superiore al 7,5 adesso utilizzo del succo di limone per abbassare il pH fino al 6,2. La pianta non ha mai sofferto nulla è sempre stata forte e mi ha sorpreso nella resa, cime sempre più grosse e profumate. Adesso però non so quando tagliare e come, stavo pensando che ormai è giunto il momento

Week 5 with Fastbuds Zkittlez, Barneys Farm Purple Punch Auto, Seedsman Pink Kush Auto, Ethos OG Kush Auto R5. All are in pre flower and looking good, LST and defoliation only. No nutes. Foxfarm ocean forest soil and 6.5 ph water. 18/6 light cycle.
