Welcome to week 8! My little apple fritter doing great! The buds getting bigger from day to day and she’s handling the small distance to the light fantastic. I think I have another 1,5weeks to go and I’m Herz curious about the harvest!

I love this plant. Thrives, grows fast and smells amazing!!! Day 63 from seed. I watered with cannazym 2,5ml/l + NRG flavor 1ml/l. I will continue with cannazym only for 1 week+ 1 week with pHed water. Mimosa x Orange punch will be ready for harvest in just 77 days from sprouting!!! One of my best grows ever... Great genetics, high quality rock hard buds! Zero issues... Thank you buddies! With Lumatek, you smoke dense flowers, not leaves. It is time to open our eyes and start recognizing truly high-quality cultivation LEDs. I always try to protect myself from becoming a victim of marketing hype. The flower-to-leaf ratio should matter to all of us who grow for personal use and want the best possible final product in the jar, as well as an excellent smoking experience. A high number of trimmed sugar leaves mixed in with the flowers can negatively affect quality, flavor, and cannabinoid concentration, while also increasing the amount of unnecessary burnt plant material. This extra biomass may make the smoke harsher on the throat and lungs over time, and overall it can reduce the quality of the experience!

Harvest: Everything dried up to 347 grams + 96 grams of super high quality trim. Overall I am not too pleased with the smoke of the product. Although the bud size, bag appeal, smell and taste are pretty much all there, the shitty burn is a deal breaker for me and the majority of this weed is quite frankly useless. Another downside is while smoking I’ve found 4 seeds in an ounce from almost every strain. Light leaks? At least I learned a ton, including how to get super good burn for my next crop. I’m hoping that curing for a month or so will improve the burn but I wouldn’t really count on it. I have seen weed dried for 4 days with no cure and no flush smoke clean and not go out once. I have been told that the key to white ashes/clean burn is proper mineral content in the soil and there is tons of scientific studies on cigar ash going back 100 years. Plants grown in a medium with high levels of decomposing organic matter, phosphorus, magnesium, chlorine and heavy metal ratio tend to produce black/grey ash. Whereas plants grown in a medium with a higher ratio of trace minerals like calcium carbonate and potassium in the form of wood ash, rock dusts, oyster shell flour and lower levels of decomposing organic matter will produce a dense, uniform white ash that rarely goes out. But this is still all theory until I test it to confirm for myself a few times. My last few outdoor harvests did not improve with curing at all so I’m hoping this will be the missing link. Plain peat moss and coco clearly lack essential minerals that help burn. If said theory is correct I should find a synthetic nutrient line with more trace minerals. Makes me wonder if growing if rockwool/basalt rock could improve burn in a hydro setup. I think I did a fairly decent job for my first grow. I went wrong in a million different places but I still stuck it out and got some decent herb. Things went wrong early when I got black spot mold, nitrogen/magnesium deficiencies and powdery mildew. I corrected most of it but things didn’t get really bad until mid veg when I intentionally skipped a few feedings and defoliated quite heavily stunting the plants. I also didn’t even top or start LST until the 6-9th node which was really stupid and hurt my yield. My temperatures were all over the place from the learning curve. I was severely overwatering without realizing it. 100% peat moss is a shitty medium. I also fed way too late in flower (not what caused shitty burn). I also used synthetic nutrients in soil.

📆 Semana 6 Golosa sigue avanzando en floración, con las flores ganando volumen y la resina cada vez más visible. Esta semana, las hojas grandes empiezan a amarillear, coincidiendo con los cambios observados tras la exposición al CO₂. Ajusto la nutrición y subo la EC a 1.4, mientras reduzco la exposición al UVB para priorizar la conservación del perfil terpénico. Continúo vigilando la evolución de la planta y las condiciones ambientales, especialmente ahora que el frío sigue presente ⚡ EC: 1.4 💧 pH: 6.2–6.3 🌡️ Agua: 21°C 🌫️ Humedad: 60–65% 💡 Intensidad: 400–500 PPFD 🔥 Consejo de cultivo: Ante el amarilleamiento, conviene observar cómo evoluciona el follaje y comprobar el equilibrio nutricional antes de seguir ajustando la alimentación. ¡Seguimos creciendo fuerte! 💪

2 nights into flower and already they've doubled in size, from what I've seen , this strain is a pure stretcher. Added the scrog net about a foot and a half above the plants. Each plant has 4 main colas. One plant is showing expressions of pink in the leaves and stems, picture below of the leaf. 14.6 Last day of the week (sort of). We're going to conclude the weeks diary on Sunday now instead of Tuesday, it's much easier for my brain that way. All looking well. I can't seem to find the (albeit very mildly) plant that had pinky expressions anymore, although two of them seem to have red streaks on the stems which the other three don't so we will see, I'm hoping there's enough space in here to grow these girls, hopefully the scrog will save my ass. There's some slight discolouration in a couple of leaves on only two plants, not sure why it what may have caused it, maybe spilt nutrients water(although it's a very mild solution). Started introducing nutrients now, (my soil/compost mix was super rich in nitrogen but seriously lacking in p and k) liquid for the moment, but I'm going to add a top dress of compost, worm castings, bone meal, root fusion powder, sulphate of potash and guano). This should mean I won't have to feed many more nutrients, I will however be adding the remainder of Plagron's green sensation and top max and bloom to maximise flower production at least for the first 3-6 weeks of flower, we will see, I have no idea how sativa leaning this strain will turn out, I'm under the impression they're all a kinda 50/50 or sativa like structure.

The plant is now focusing 100% on bud development and trichome production

Done.

We are in week 2 of the flowering. Today I added Bloombastic. The plants forgot they were superscrogged and just grew as fast as before. The height can be a problem in the next weeks, I hope the stretch is over now and they can concentrate on building flowers. Day 36 I gave them some more Bloombastic. And I took off almost every leave and small branch under the net because they would not get enough light and they shall concentrate on getting big buds instead of small flowers. Day 37: Due to size problems I decided not to take a picture of every plant every day but one pictures of all a day. Plus when the flowers are getting bigger, I will stay focused on the growth on some of them (not all, that is business secret 😆). Also I will take pictures of the finished flowers at the end, don't know yet of all or just a few (business secret). But I will definately tell the weight of 'em all in the end so stay tuned 😎 Day 38: I knew I would get size problems again. I brought them all under the net again. A few branches broke during that action. But that's just the way it is. They are too big so I have to find solutions. My solution is "getting them under the net". Kinda works out but I will see the result tomorrow, today it's been kinda tricky not to hurt them. Day 40: I put one branch under the net it was too high and did not get enough light because of that. Should be fixed now. The flowers are coming nice and slowly. I am so excited, I can hardly wait. Day 41: I had to put some branches under the net again.

Overall the plant yielded good dense nugs with strong smell, if your planning on running these seeds make sure you have a good germination rate so you can get at least 1 good pheno with good color on it. This strain was very resistant to deficiencies, large amount of root development and decent lateral growth. I will post nug shots after dry and trim

4 days of cloudy weather, hoping for more sun this week! So far so good, very tiny plant, probably just genetics? Flowering pretty fast!

Wachsen, seit gestern wieder CO2 am Start für letzte VEG Woche und dann ersten 3 Flower Wochen

These girls are doing well still. Responded well to their training and recovered from their topping. All is well and have watered twice in the last week.

Mandarin XL auto just had a solution change today. She looks like she is starting to bulk. She was looking kinda pail and discolored. She was due for a solution change. So hopefully she takes to it well and puts on a lot of weight. Everything has been going well, and nothing more to report. Thank you Gen1:11, Medic Grow, and Ganja Farmer. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

Day 36 I guess I can call it bloom. Nice strong pistils shooting all over. She is the tallest so far making me raise my lights a little more. Day 38 Now Californian Snow is the tallest :) Ztrawberry stopped at a perfect height, it looks like she's gonna develop into a beautiful lady. Fat white pistils all over 😻 Day 39 Happy girl got 2500ml cm bg bb bh 6.3ph ~1EC She is perfect, symmetrical, stopped stretching at about 50cm, flowers are mostly leveled, branches are strong, leaves point up unless I water. I think she's also turning purple. Beaut 😻 Day 42 I think I saw some burnt tips but she still looks super happy and healthy. The most vigorous plant I've had.

💚Please Like This Diary and Leave a Comment!💚 pH @ 6.8 Plants grow nicely and are strong! No Nutritions until flowering start. Red Wine was created by crossing Rozay F2 with Jet A. They are 2 very powerful aromatic Cali hybrids. This exclusive new Cali strain is a very strong and fast flowering indica-dominant strain. It has an aromatic, intoxicating and relaxing effect. That is comparable to enjoying a good glass of wine. Red Wine has an average flowering time of about 7-8 weeks when grown indoors. Outdoors it is ready fairly early, usually around the end of September. The yield is very good. Indoors she has an average yield of 450-650 gr/m². When growing outdoors, 600-800 grams can easily be achieved per plant. Red Wine has an aromatic scent that can be compared to a full red wine. Her full, purple-green buds are very compact with few leaves. This is very convenient when cutting the plants and saves a lot of time. Smoking this weed gives you a nice high with relaxing properties. The taste of Red Wine is very fruity sweet with an aroma of red grapes. Flowering time: 7 – 8 weeks Genetics: Rozay F2 x Jet A 30% Sativa, 70% Indica Plant height outside: 100 – 180 cm Outdoor harvest month: from June to October Yield indoors: 450 – 650 gr/m² Yield outdoors: 200 – 800 gr / plant THC: 25% 💸💸💸Wanna Try Red Wine from Seeds Genetics?💸💸💸 https://seedsgenetics.nl/product/red-wine-gefeminiseerd/

She looks great and smells amazing.

Well these are the final pics of her. Gonna be sad to see her go but glad to get her in the grinder 😂. This grow has spoken for itself. She has presented no problems and never asked for anything. A plant that was quick of the mark and had almost no reaction to being topped, It really is a healthy strain. In darkness now for next 24h then i'll get her down and hung.

The plants are ready to be chopped and hung for 3-5 days. I removed all the fans leaves and left them all branches on the main stem. The ladies smell so strong I can wait to see how they turn out when they are dried and cured. 1) I plan to hang them for 3-5 days @ 71 f and 50-55 RH, 2) Do a final tight trim 3) Than I will move them to jars and cure for 2-3 weeks I will update the diary with harvest pictures & weight before I move them to the jars for curing. I think the seeds might have got mixed up when packing because these three plants were all supposed to be the same and you can clearly tell from the pictures that they are not.
