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 👍

8/3 Went over to treat the 10th planet that needed water with plant doctor around 10:30. I was in the garden at 6 but didn't have much time. That plant seems to be curled up or "droopy". It DID need water. I defoliated a few sep leaves off it but I didn't see any today. I guess I don't ever really see the leaves "up" or praying like I do with the rest of tge plants. It's starting to flower like the rest though. Today is the day everything is supposed to get its second or third plant doctor dose but I decided to wait until they need the water. I don't think 24hrs will mean much. I've been staying on top of defoliation but I'm seeing some pillar damage. I'd like to spray bt but what my buddy said about spraying with septoria is still in my head. Maybe I can use citric acid. That way it won't "wash away" spores it will just eat them. At least I think. And I hope lol. Birds get most of the pillars but I hand pick some too. I need to pick up nutes. Wondering if I should just get grow big again. I don't use much but plants are switching to flower and leaves are fading. I have big bloom and kool bloom bit neither have nitrogen. I still need some sort of nitrogen. Especially since that could be a deficiency. Not sure if it's the transition or a condition with the sep. I see some interior small leaves bleeding out and some dying. I'm wondering if what I thought was earwig damage years prior was really a combo of sep and they just ate the evidence. I'm super grateful though. I've got some resilient girls and they're doing well. The special kush in flower is gorgeous as well. Looks like I'll have an early plant. Short flowering time on this strain. Smells pungent. 8/4 Treated everything in the garden with plant doctor except the 10th planet I got yesterday. I need to take a closer look at that plant. It rarely looks "happy" like my others. I'll check it again later. 3tsp per gallon and 1gal a plant. The 10s got a half gallon. This seems to be working great. I have some defoliation to do on the tenth planet I was talking about earlier. Everything is in some form of flower. The flowers on that early special kush are getting bigger. I'll update this later. UPDATE: WENT BACK OVER AT NOON TO TAKE A LOOK AT THAT OTHER 10TH PLANET TO SEE IF IT PICKED UP AT ALL. IT DID. IM GLAD I CAME OVER TO CHECK THOUGH. MAKES ME FEEL BETTER. THE OTHER 10TH PLANET LOOKS HORRIBLE O. FILM FROM ONE ANGLE LOL BUT ITS REALLY A GREAT LOOKING PLANT AND IM USUALLY FILMING AT LIKE 6AM. JIST WANTED TO STICK UP FORCMY GIRL AND HER BAD HAIR DAY. ITS BEEN HIT AND A FEW OF HER LEAVES ARE TACOED. SHE GOT HER FIRST "PREVENTATIVE" DOSE OF PLANT DOCTOR WHICH WAS HALF A TSP/GALLON. IT REALLY SEEMS TO BE DOING SUBSTANTIALLY BETTER. EVERYTHING IS. IM HAVING TO LOOK HARDER AND AM HAVING TROUBLE FINDING LEAVES EFFECTED BY SEPTORIA. KNOCK ON WOOD. IM EXCITED. THIS IS GOING BETTER THAN I THOUGHT. IM STILL GOING TO BE MONITERING LIKE I USUALLY DO. 8/5 Watered the 10th planet I dodnt get yesterday. Looked and didn't see any sep leaves. Phone was dead so I vouldnt do a video. Went back over at like 130pm and did a quick video and checked out the girls. Everything is looking good and transitioning well. I WANT to use a diy Dr. Zymes with citric acid as I've noticed a few pillars. Only reason I've hesitated is because my buddy said not to spray it. But if what I spray it with "eats" it I would think it's ok. But what do I know. Birds get a great deal of them. I watch them on the camera sit on the cage and wait for one to stick it's head up before snatching it up. Still need to get either more grow big or a bloom product with nitrogen. I was able to defoliate that other 10th planet of anything suspect. It's hard work but it's worth it in the end. 8/6 It's like 81 at 4pm. I didn't have time to video this morning but i went back over. WATERED EVERYTHING THIS BUT THE 50 AND THE 10TH PLANET I GOT YESTERDAY. Temps are supposed to pick up soon and it will be in the 90's again. We've had like NO rain. I searched for leaves that had signs of sep to defoliate. I may find one or two but for the most part things are doing great. Overall I'm happy. 8/7 Bought a new bottle of grow big. Wanted to switch to the roots organic teas but I cant do that invthe middle of an already complicated grow. I'll switch nutes next season. I'm noticing some pillar damage. Not much amd I've been hand picking them. I've found a few in curled up leaves. I watered the 10th planet in the front corner that didn't get it yesterday. I hope the watering yesterday will hold them until the morning. I'm still thinking about doing an application of diy Dr. Zymes to clear up any random pests. I'll ask a question and see what other growers on here have to say. EDIT: MY SPIDEY SENSES STARTED TINGLING SO I WENT OVER TO CHECK ON THE GIRLS THIS AFTERNOON. THE MK ULTRA THAT I LEFT NATURAL WAS STARTING TO DROOP. THE REST OF THE GIRLS COULD WAIT. I MIXED WATER FOR ONE OF THE TENS BUT DECIDED AGAINST IT. I DONT WANT TO OVERWATER AND I THINK IT CAN MAKE IT. I GAVE THE MK ULTRA A FULL WATERING CAN WHICH IS ALMOST TWO GALLONS. IT WAS PUCKING UP BYVTHE TIME I LEFT AND WASNT EVEN ALL THE WAY DOWN. IM GLAD I CHECKED. The ONLINE cannabis community can be such a joke. There ARE good groups but this places sucks. I put a question up as PART of the research I was doing and ive received some dumb answers but this was aggressive too. I had it figured out prior to reading the answer but it caught me off guard. I decided that since Im able to keep it suppressed with what im doing (leaf septoria on a couple of plants) than don'tchange it. I've dealt with it before and kept it suppressed but not nearly as well. It was a yes or no question really. Stated for outdoor experienced growers as I was looking to avoid the copy paste/ look how smart I am bullshit. I just have an anxiety disorder and like to hear numerous responses before I act. I figure it out and log on and I get some smart ass response from an INDOOR grower. When I SPECIFICALLY asked for EXPERIENCED OUTDOOR growers (as the question is unique to the outdoor environment and indoor growers seem snobby and seem to get jealous when they see my massive plants a quote what they just searched on the internet). I can read shit on the internet as well and had prior to posting. I'm sorry if my success with a product (that you are unaware of "but can't see how it could work" (despite not knowing the active ingredients by your own admission) and lots of hard work have prevailed. When I have to ditch a plant it's 1/4 to a full elbow. Not an 1/8th. So I won't be burning shit. I hate when people say that. There are cases for it but many new growers have been led astray with stupid advice like this. ESPECIALLY if everything is going GOOD! If a plant was less than perfect I'd put it in my concentrates bag. Not much fits through a 25 micron screen. But by all means burn your plants. I have no idea how I have ZERO wpm this year but I would hear shit like this for a couple leaves "with gravel on them" on a 10ft tall plant that yielded like a pound. So I don't know why I listen or why I even responded. Even if it WAS wpm I would've kept it and washed it. It must be nice to be able to work 20 weeks on something numerous times a day put a bunch of money in it and when you hit flower burn it because you don't want to do the extra work. You can easily tell the people that don't grow outdoors. It's a completely different game. But since I've already written it I'm leaving it. One more thing. You didn't even know what the active ingredients in my product were. How can you make ANY statements about the efficacy of ANYTHING without knowing what it is? You said "unless it's a bunch of silica" that provokes an immune response. It's not silica hun. I've been hunting for years for something that works. Go back to your closet. 8/8 The Lion's Gate Portal. Watered everything but the mk ultra and 10th planet upfront I got yesterday. I was going to feed but I ran out of time. I may still feed today I'm not sure. I found a couple septoria leaves on that pink kush that has "some" soil from last year in it. That is a mistake I won't make again. I'm checking a few times a day and defoliating anything suspect. The girls are looking good. I'm proud of them. Very resilient. They've withstood pretty much everything nature can throw at them. HAIL, torrential downpours, 30mph winds, disease and still they are thriving. There's really no way to explain the feeling that I get when I come to the garden in the morning and see everything looking good and smell that familiar odor. Serenity I guess. Pure serenity. I'll update if I feed or do anything else. EDIT: WENT BACK OVER AT LIKE 5:30 since it was over 90°. Everything was fine waterwise though. Caught a HUGE grasshopper and found a pillar the likes I've never seen. It was a scary looking bastard! Looked like one of the worms from tremors and it almost seemed like it had some silk around it. It opened its mouth when I went to grab it. It was brown but neon green when I squished it. I need to find a good mulch. They say that helps with septoria. I defoliated a few leaves while I was there. It's close to the time for app of plant doctor. I decided to not feed. I saw a couple leaves that had SLIGHT nute burn on the tips. I'll observe and treat accordingly. 8/9 I decided to not feed this week. All new growth looks great and I noticed SLIGHT burns on tje tips of a few leaves so I figured I'd back off this week. Boy that early special Kush keeps getting bigger. It's going to be nice to have one plant ready long before the others. I'm wondering about my other 10th planet. The one that's had all the plant doctor treatment is doimg fantastic! The other not as much. It's droopy more often than not and doesn't really have many leaves effected by sep. What it LOOKS like is that beat curly top virus. The plant was one of the largest but it's much smaller sister has surpassed her (by far) and looks extremely healthy. I think I may move the plant out of the enclosure. It's a big plant and maybe after it's gotten treatment it will improve but I'm not sure it's worth the risk. It's spaced pretty far from everything else but still. Has me worried. I was reading that like 90 something percent of cannabis coming from California is infected with a virus. Don't remember where I read it but it wad a reputable source that was cited. Looks like I'm not doing ethos outdoors again. I may do some indoor this winter if external things come

Today is day 18 of flower Day 76 total and this girl is rocking and rolling I'm very excited to have my very own one to one that I grew especially one as potent as seedsman says this is.. with 22% THC and 18% CBD potentially this could be a really great strain for the evening and for aches and pains.. I will say she is quite a stretcher and I'm hoping she is about done because she's running out of room.. big shout out the seedsman this is been an extremely stress-free grow showing no deficiencies at any point in time and having extremely vigorous growth.. I hope all is well and happy growing to all ✌️

Seedlings are doing well! The 1 that is about 4 days older is showing good growth. I’ve been able to keep the humidity high enough and haven’t overwatered them yet! They are getting about a cup of water, starting with the outside rim and working my way in. This is about every third day or so. Not much else, it’s been an easy week. Happy Gardening 👊🇨🇦❤️

FD 30 : 5L water with PH ~6.5 1ml/l biogrow, 1ml/l topmax, 1ml/l biobloom, 0,5ml/l calmag FD 33 : 5L water with PH ~6.3 2,5ml/l biogrow, 1ml/l topmax, 2ml/l biobloom, 0,75ml/l calmag The leaves of all plants besides the top right are turning yellow, the top right plants leaves are getting deeper red every day. When opening the tent you get hit by this sweet, fruity scent :) I think the yellowish leaves are comming from nutrient deficiency. Since the PH should be in a fine spot now, I guess raising the nutrients should be the solution. If you have other thoughts on why the leaves turn yellowish, please tell me!

So starting the 3rd week of flower. All but one plant speeding ahead towards dank. The lights below LED continue at a fast pace, I think it’s the most pistils I’ve seen firing out all over place this early. However one of the OS below the HPS isn’t feeling this groove and is developing at a slower rate. The plants that are being hit by both lights are gonna be fat!!!!! The forming buds are coming together quickly and big, they look swollen before they’ve swollen if ya know what I mean.🤔😂 I love week 3 of flower its where I always hit my plants with Hydrotops Triple F. It’s not a new product I’m using however I am using it in conjunction with two of their other products this time which is supposed to be the ideal way to benefit the plants when using Triple F. Development has seemed quicker during this grow especially from the period of switching the light cycle up to now. I’m happy. Temperature still a problem though a bit. Looking awesome going through week 3. But one plant is so much slower than the rest, I think she stretched a little too much when it was time. It still looks very strong and is covered with flower sites but they’re just not developing at a rate anything like her sisters flowers. The phantom OG in there with them are super fast. Maybe that’s making the Orange seem slower to me too🤔😂 all looking great in there anyway and am loving every moment I get to get in there with my girls. Very productive 3rd week 3 out of 4 growing at an accelerated rate, the 4th is looking fine too, well looking great actually but a lot slower with flower development.

The little Gorilla Punch might still be the smallest in the tent, but she’s showing real power this week.🥊💪 Her stretch is completely done now, and she’s focusing all her energy on bud and trichome development.🌸✨ The structure looks really good nice spacing between the buds, healthy dark-green color, and no signs of stress or deficiencies.💚 She got one feeding of Orgatrex and the rest of the week only RO water with CalMag. The environment stayed perfectly stable at 24.8°C and 55% RH under the Spider Farmer SE5000, controlled by the AC Infinity AI system.🌡️ She might be compact, but she’s clearly the furthest along in bloom. Bud sites are stacking nicely, and the first trichomes are starting to sparkle, looking promising already 😎🔥

She has had a saturation of amino acids and root juice. The stem is firming up well. Waiting for her to develop a bit more before I repot her. But for now she looks well!

14.11.2025 Was going to close the diary today but as it doesn't smell anymore I decided to close the diary this coming Tuesday, smell shifted from chemical fish ammonia to cooked fish with the additional Citric acid I sprayed in, rest in video 📸 🐟💀 FERMAKOR: The Dorade Incident – Spontaneous Batch Log (Because the fish came with guts, and I don’t waste potential) --- 🍽️ How It Started I ordered two big Dorades for dinner. Didn’t bother ticking the “cleaned” box. They arrived whole — full organs, eyes staring, one of them with a stomach packed with broken seashells (free CaCO₃ bonus). So instead of complaining, I just said: “Alright, fine. Dinner first. Hydrolysis later.” --- ⚗️ Phase 1 — The Gut Start (Day 1) Material: 160 g of fresh guts straight from the fish. KOH: 20 g (yep, strong ratio, I know). Water: ~250 mL warm. Dissolved KOH → poured over → stirred → left to liquefy. Within minutes it warmed up and foamed; by evening it was already turning into that deep brown, oil-slick mix I like. --- Phase 2 — The Rest Goes In (Day 2) After dinner, all the remaining parts go into the same container: Heads, bones, fins, skin — roughly 500–600 g. Add another 30–35 g KOH and ~0.5 L water. Stir and let it digest for a week or two or three, until smooth. The seashells stay in — they buffer the pH and slowly release Ca and trace minerals. --- ⚖️ Phase 3 — Neutralization Once the mix settles, I’ll neutralize down to pH 6.2–6.4 using phosphoric acid. Target ~40 mL of 59 % H₃PO₄ for the whole thing. Then strain through cheesecloth / pillowcase (no coffee filter — that’s only for exports 😎). --- Storage Bottled in brown flip-top German beer bottles. Label: “FERMAKOR FISH BASE – DORADE INCIDENT – 2025-11-06” Shake before use, store dark. --- 🌿 Application 10 mL per 30 L barrel mid-flower as amino + micro boost. Clean N-P-Ca + enzymes, zero smell, instant uptake.

Die Reise ist zuende. Es war spannend sie wachsen zu sehen. Leider hatte ich irgendwann Probleme mit dem Dünger bei ihr und sie litt sehr darunter. Aber sie hat sich tapfer durchgebissen und hat mir am Ende deutlich mehr gebracht, als ich gehofft hatte. Green Gelato Auto von RQS gehört wie Cookies Gelato und Fat Banana Auto zu meinem ersten Tagebuch. Leider wird das Tagebuch nicht angezeigt, daher habe ich jede Pflanze jetzt nomma einzelnt hochgeladen, damit ihr auch sehen könnt, wie mein Start auf Growdiaries war. Das Tagebuch hatte damals vor 2 Jahren ganze 4 Likes abgestaubt... 🙄🤷🏻‍♂️😁

Grew really well. As I said topped early on during veg. And trained her with LST the wk before flipping and adjusted during. Defoliation was done as a move node training tool, aswel as crop steering "water starvation" to make the plant produce bigger buds from her own steam. With heavy airflow through the grow it make for a real strong girl that loved life right till the end and produced close to 2oz of dried bud. Trimming was an ease. Very sticky and fruity while trimming. Notes of pineapple and an earthy scent, (like a wooden forest). Very fruity as I said with notes of citrus also but overwhelming blueberry scent that has dominated her scent after 2 weeks curing. Was burped 2x a day 1st week . And now its done once a day. Blueberries are so lush and ripe it's like holding a handful of fresh picked fruit.

Okay so I came up with this incredible method of training that I call "root lining".I figured this out years ago in outdoor season when a deer bulldozed through my med crop and knocked a sweet lady over, that started it all. The plant was completely parallel to the ground with roots growing out of the nodes where contact was made with the ground at the stock. Long story short she ended up being a 14 footer with 6 foot whale dicks! That gave me this little idea that's been non stop producing top quality fat resinous buds. This method increases nutrient uptake and makes a huge difference in quality and size. I essentially main line, really low to the ground, until the stock makes full contact with the ground. I then gently rub the downside of the stock with the back of a butter knife to speed things up and break down the chlorophyll layer. Then I add remo roots gel (see all videos). I then add a sprinkle of coco on top just to barely cover the stock (dont add to thick of a layer as this might "choke" and rot the stock) and mist that spot 2-3 times a day. 3 days later and boom! She'll be pumping out roots and go into full beast mode. Give it a try and you'll never go back!
