This week has gone great! At the beginning of the week we flushed the remaining Fox farm nutrients we had been using before with Sledgehammer. After we treated with an organic compost tea brewed by our local hydroponic shop. We started with the Cyco Platinum Series this week. It’s still a bit early to tell but we will see how this nutrient line performs. I am very optimistic. As you may be able to tell I have a reservoir with coco coir mix on top with a drip irrigation system. I’m going to be trying out this system and an ebb and flow system in the upcoming weeks. I’m looking to maximize quality and quantity and believe these two system offer some of the best results. We look forward to starting that project! As for the lady she is looking extremely healthy. She is recovering well from being topped and lst. We’re going to let her grow up a bit now and stretch her out across the first trellis. My experience says this should be in 2-3 weeks and the. We will let her grow up through the second trellis. All in all I believe I’m looking at a 7-10 week veg. My goal is to shoot for a minimum of 1.3lbs from one plant. Thanks for taking the time to read this. Leave a comment if you have any questions or if you have any suggestions! Please check out my Instagram. Link in my Bio. Peace ✌️ Love ❤️ and Thanx 👍

Meanwhile it is foxtailing hard. As I‘m not running crazy temps, this is likely caused by the 13h of light. Reduced now back to 12h and hoping she will survive another week or so (trichs are mostly milky, no amber yet)

Orange Sherbert looking good, well 3 of 4 one looking like not much at all🙄😩 they’ve got around 3 to 4 weeks left before flush anyway so there is time for a bit of catch up. The smell is ok, dank and skunky, no orange coming from them yet. On the most the buds look to be good n fat, nice n dense and a little bit sticky.

This was a good harvest for 9L pots, good root structure. The plant pulled out some real nice colours at the end of its life, if I could have lowered temps a bit I bet she would have looked stunning with the fade. Smoke report coming up in a few mins.

Mr. Pipi welcomes you to the 15th Week of Grow and the ~6th week of flower. I guess the Colas stopped bulking up as quickly as at the beginning. Sadly, but that´s nature. Maybe a last time watering with molasses and then the next 2weeks flushing. Maybe some ice cubes to see if she gets purple, but i doubt it :D Day 107: its exactly 7 weeks since Mr. Pipi switched light cycle. Girl is starting getting purple.

Let’s begin this "Primata Uva"… 😜 I’m a newbie here on Grow Diaries — and outside of this bubble as well. One year into this journey, I finally feel a bit more comfortable sharing my flaws and following this incredible path. Being a newbie doesn’t mean being reckless, though. Every step of the initial process involves cleaning and sterilizing every single inch of the tent and all the equipment. Disclaimer: Be careful when using certain products like bleach or other strong chemicals. Always wear a mask, gloves, safety glasses, etc. Take care of yourself during this process and make sure there is plenty of fresh air circulating. Stay safe! 🏾 🌱 Genetics Breeder: Royal Queen Seeds Grape Ape: Afghani x Mendocino Purps x Skunk #1 Some strains put a spring in your step and help you start the day on the right foot; others will lull you into relaxation once the chaos of daily life comes to a close. Grape Ape falls firmly into the latter. It only takes a couple of hits to feel your worries evaporate and for sensations of tranquillity and stillness to take hold. Tastes of fruit and skunk are a big bonus! https://www.royalqueenseeds.com/feminized-cannabis-seeds/659-grape-ape.html Disclaimer: I'm very found of this cultivar. it taste amazing and the vibe is pretty enjoyable. To reed smoking a 'J' of it it's just bless/blast (choose your preference) 🌱 Germination Process I usually prefer placing the seed directly into the growing medium to avoid pathogens — no direct handling of the seed. So: mask on, gloves on, and full attention. Once the medium is in the pot, I water with about 50–80 ml of pure water, adjusted to pH 6.3, with the lowest EC possible. The hardest and most challenging part for me: waiting — around 7 days. 😜😝 From day one, the pots were placed on a heating mat, maintaining an average temperature of 22°C. I can’t wait to see it growing, growing, growing! Grow with passion, and it will thrive. 🌱✨

Week 1 Flower Report: Anesia Pheno Hunt! Hello, wonderful Grow Diaries community! Welcome back to another exciting week of our Anesia pheno hunt. We've officially entered the flowering stage, and I couldn't be more thrilled to share the progress and updates with you all. Week 1 Flower Highlights: Transition to Flowering: Our Anesia ladies are making the exciting transition from veg to flower. The stretch is on, and they're reaching for the stars! This week, the plants have shown remarkable growth, with sturdy branches and lush foliage. Future#1, Zoomiez, Apricot Oreo, and the resilient Red Banana Pudding are all thriving beautifully. Nutrient Update: To support this critical phase, I’ve adjusted their nutrient regimen. Using the fantastic Aptus Holland range, I’ve started them on the flower mix, including Regulator, CaMg-Boost, TopBooster, and P-Boost. The All-in-One Pellets in the soil provide a solid nutrient base, so no need for the All-in-One Liquid. This powerful combo ensures they get all the essential nutrients for robust flowering. Environment Control: Maintaining optimal conditions is key. With the help of my Blue Lab Guardian monitor, I’ve kept the TDS at 420 and pH at 5.8, ensuring perfect balance for nutrient uptake. The Future of Grow LED lights continue to provide the ideal spectrum for vigorous growth and bloom. Topping and Training: Earlier, we topped the plants, and the results are showing! The plants have developed multiple strong colas, promising an abundant harvest. The water droplets after topping always bring a smile, signifying the plants’ health and vitality. Invitation: If you haven’t already, be sure to check out my YouTube series, "Welcome to the Green Oasis." In this series, I take you behind the scenes of our grow operations, sharing tips, updates, and in-depth looks at our garden. Each episode is filled with insights and a whole lot of green goodness. Join us on YouTube and be part of our growing journey! Watch the series here: Welcome to the Green Oasis - https://www.youtube.com/@dogdoctorofficial Thank you, Anesia Seeds, for the incredible genetics, and shoutouts to Aptus Holland for the top-notch nutrients, Future of Grow for the amazing LEDs, and the entire Grow Diaries community for your support and encouragement.

It's a nice change of pace to have these warmer temperatures, even if it's not quite spring yet. Low 40s during the day is a lot more comfortable than what we've been dealing with lately. Hopefully, this is a sign that spring's around the corner. My Blackberry Moon Rocks are growing like crazy! Most of the leaves are a nice, deep green, but I noticed a few on one plant were a little yellow. I did some research and it sounds like they need some extra nutrients, so I'll be adding those in on the next watering. I can't wait to see how much bigger and bushier these beauties get.

2te Woche beginnt. Bisher läuft es glaube recht gut … Die kleinen wachsen brav … Habe mal 2 weitere Nutrients hinzugefügt und Versuche den VPD Wert irgendwie konstant zuhalten 🙈👍 Dank 4 Blumat Classic pro Topf reicht ab und zu bisschen sprühen aus dem Befeuchter… heute das erste mal die kleine Pflanze abgedeckt und ganz leicht von oben die trockene Erde mit den neuen Nutrients zusätzlich befeuchtet. Mal schauen was sie so bewirken …

Aug 3: woohoo week two of flowering. Plant is definitely flowering and looks to be on its way to a strong finish. Very excited for this one and it looks very promising. Group pic is Cheese in front, Gelato, Gorilla Cookies, and Bruce Banner. Last two are 16 cola manifolds, and the front two are 8 colas. Aug 5: video shows use of 730 nm far red light as a bloom booster. A few seconds at dusk is all it takes. I use Civil Twilight as listed on timeanddate.com for my latitude each night. Currently getting 2 minutes earlier each night. The far red light at dusk, at the same point in the light cycle each night, causes the plant to go into dark mode about two hours faster. It’s like getting an extra two hours of darkness in a 26 h day. Works indoors and on autos too. Moves up flowering by about 3-4 weeks here. Don’t miss a night and keep it at the same relative time each night. This is sometimes called phyto-forcing. Easier than moving the plants into the garage each night. Aug 6: foliar spray of potassium silicate and Extreme Blend done in early evening. Plants drink a lot when it is hot and they’re this big and have been watering twice a day lately. Aug 7: did another round of compost tea this morning. Aug 9: defoliated the understory to improve airflow and remove shaded bits. Mostly fan leaves and popcorn bud sites with a few small branches that were growing in towards the centre.

3/25/21 - Today I fed with a little bit of Big Bloom. They really seem to respond well to it. 3/26/21 - They look great! No feeding today. I removed the humidity dome today. We are transplanting into the grow closet on 4/01/21. They will be in the grow closet until harvest under LED. 3/27/21 - Autopilot today. No feeding. I’ll feed tomorrow with more Big Bloom. They could be transplanted today but we are going to run the rest of this week. 3/28/21 - Fed with Big Bloom. All plants have roots coming out of the bottom of the cups. We’ll be moving them to 5 gallon fabric pots in a few days. 3/29/21 - No water today. They all look good. Transplant day is coming! 3/30/21 - I put some water in the tray so the plants could get water if needed. I don’t think they need any water today. 3/31/21 - I gave each plant a small feeding of Big Bloom. Tomorrow they will be transplanted into 5 gallon fabric pots of Fox Farm Ocean Forest and be given water for at least 2 weeks. See ya on week 4!

This week I’ve managed to nurse this girl back,,after snapping a couple branches in the previous week,,,,, In the process,,I’ve managed to expose enough branch tops down the lower end,,to create a fairly even canopy,,and the top end of the plant,,has its own canopy level,,with 4 or 5 leaders,, I think she might be just about to start flowering,,,👍💚

Put the girls into the new 4x8 flower tent today. Need to get lights for the other half of the tent but these plants are in one half of the tent sitting under Aglex 2000 and Aglex 1200 (total 630 true watts) They're starting to stack and bulk up a bit and getting a nice sweet stink to them. Another easy week with no issues showing themselves.

This week saw an increase in flower sites and the start of the bud formation. Really good to see her take her strides. I have been mixing GHE Flora coco series and following dosage for 15L but using 20L of water so almost 3/4 of recommended dose and found that it was dialing in nicely. Included calmag from GHE starting this week to give extra dose of calmag since growing under LED lights.
