Day 28 flower.! 😏Almost halfway. Had to get a larger area bc the 10x10 bedroom wasn't cutting it. Hard to water when plants fill tha whole room😭. So I upgraded and got a 10x20 workshop behind my house and wired a 100 amp subpanel in there so I should be good for abt 10K watts next grow😎... if I can wire my whole shop on FaceTime with a friend who is a certified electrician then trust me anybody can do it. Yes it was my first time wiring ANYTHING in my life. Which is crazy. It pays to have great friends.

Weekly update on these big girls. I decided to take out some of the lower branches, giving more airflow at the top of the pot level. Overall they've exploded with growth this week. I'd say they're getting close to 4ft tall. I sprayed some BT spray for ipm this week since I don't want catapillers showing up unannounced. All in all Happy

After 12 weeks of flower this grow is FINALLY over It was a relatively easy grow as far as maintenance and feeding are concerned. Midway through the flowering cycle the smell became very loud and the buds were sticky and frosty. I would definitely grow this again especially since I have around 50 more seeds lol. I didn't add the wet weight of the plants because I never weight wet because it doesn't matter but I will post the dry weight for all of you when they're done drying.

Days 50 - 56 Last week, I had a major lockout issue with my plants, so I’ve started monitoring both the irrigation and runoff water closely. I had to do three rounds of flushing, but after that, my lady started to recover, which was a relief! Since I'm going on vacation for the next 10 days, I’ve been working on setting up an autonomous irrigation system, which I successfully implemented and built yesterday. It uses three 12V water pumps controller by Arduino Uno via H-Bridge motor drivers, each dedicated to one plant. The system runs from 9 a.m. to 11 p.m., delivering around 250 mL of water per plant per session. This means each plant will get approximately 2.5 liters of water per day. I’ve mixed all the nutrients in advance. I know the ideal scenario would be to add the fertilizers just before each irrigation session, but unfortunately, that’s not possible. Still, it’s better than nothing. The system has been running smoothly since this morning, and so far, the cycle works fine. I’ll improve it further when I get back from vacation. To prevent any future lockout issues, I’ve extended the irrigation cycles throughout the day to ensure the coco stays consistently moist.

Eccoci qui... In questa prima settimana di fioritura ho notato come le due piccoline abbiano avuto questa crescita così esponenziale e come tutte le collab DA ORA SI INIZIA CON I VIDEO per testimoniare meglio la fioritura!!! Grazie a @KhalifaGenetics per la collab e a tutti per il supporto🔥🌲❤️

Unos esquejes brutales pero las condiciones del cultivo no fueron óptimas tuvimos retrasos al principio con el crecimiento problemas de nitrogeno, algo de humedad alta al principio de la floración y aun así salió el producto muy bueno, tanto de sabor como de cómo con. Sencillez es fácil de cultivar es rápida de cojones y además es resistente.

This week started with flowering. The lst was a bit too agressive and one little branch broke but I save it. I applied more lst to the plant this week. The plant doubled the size within a week. I had a pH problem that im fixing, the soil at one point due to nutes hit 4.8, way too low. The flowering is in full power now, I did a flush to adjust the pH and tomorrow will add new nutrients and control the pH. All good for now, a little of stress is visible on the leaves, is due to pH and strong light. For the rest everything else is going fine. See you next week.

The beauty of the fade

This Strawberry Banana is really taking off!! She has a few rust spots so I flushed last night and just fed her some cal-mag, well see how she does. Her buds are really really starting to stack up.

9/3 Shook the plants off this morning and took a few pics and did a video. Let's see if it uploads. Plants are doing good. Toasted toffy is due for another plant doctor application tonight. It seems like I'm losing lots of leaves. Looking back on my other diaries I guess it's normal. BUT I could've had pest/pathogen problems then. I'm over thinking it. Toasted toffy only needs a few more weeks. It will definitely outvrun the disease. The nugs are super dense too. The plant in the 50 is loosing leaves faster than I'd like. It is also one of the furthest along. The big leaves that turn yellow look like it's a calcium/magnesium issue. The stalk and branches are all bright green and healthy looking. So are the flowers. It could be something below the soil. I couldve been overwatering but last time I waited until it drooped. It will be fine though. I'm happy with my results so far. Not my best or biggest year but I'm going to put in the work and Mae these plants produce the best quality cannabis that im able too. Also I think plant doctor may kill insects. K bicarb with dawn does too. I've found a few dead bugs like flies and pillars. Pillars actually seem to be gone. Not many moths either. Unless I see them I'm not going to treat them for it. This is that magical time where you get to watch the plant produce those beautiful flowers. Despite some small problems I'm very grateful for what I have. I've worked hard for it. 9/4 Watered everything but the sherb pie which was still heavy with leaves yellowing. It's tied for the furthest behind in flower with the seed in the 10. I treated the toasted toffy with 1/4 gallon (4tsp/gallon) of plant doctor. I avoided flowers as much as possible and tried to just get a few leaves. I used the rest on the soil. I just wanted it to absorb a little faster. That's why I sprayed the foliage. It's not 4 days it's 14 days when tje plant doctor just leaves behind a bunch of potassium and phosphorus after it's done its job. Can't be used in a 14 day interval with copper and I think that's what treats septoria best. I dontvknow if I can use that in flower. Doesn't really matter. Things are looking good. Plant Doctor and the K bicarb seem to be doing there job effectively as long as i stick to the application times. I made a short video but didn't upload. I'll try again but I may have some medical emergencies that need to be dealt with. If not I should defoliate and tie down some event horizon branches. I thought about treating the other event horizon as well. I'm not positive it has septoria but it wouldn't hurt anything to be practice. It AT LEAST has a couple suspucuous spots. I smelled a skunk as soon as I got out of my car. It can't get in my grow but I might put out traps to catch it. We'll see how it goes. Video seems to be uploading. It's at 31% so I'll wait for it. I think I've got like four or five weeks on my toasted toffy and one event horizon and the one in the 50 that I THINK is red runtz. That's good that I'll have different plants to harvest at different times. It's seeds from here on out though. It was hard to find info on some of the strains I'm growing but they all have ONE thing in common. They are EXOTIC and they are at least MODERATELY DIFFICULT to grow. AT LEAST lol. Last year I picked the right seefs and strains and it greatly helped. Still, if these are difficult strains to grow, then I'm doing a good job. EDIT: I WAS STONED BUT IM PRETTY SURE I TREATED THE PLANT IN THE 50 WITH PLANT DOCTOR. DIDNT SPRAY BUDS. TRIED TO GET THE LEAVES THEN USED THE REST ON THE SOIL. I REMEMBER BECAUSE A STREAM ACCIDENTLY HIT A COUPLE LEAVES ON THE HUGE PLANT IN THE 10. 9/5 Sherb Pie was light and drooping. It's not to far in flower and still seemed moist yesterday with a little bit of weight. I watered it a gallon. I defoliated a little but I need to go through that plant. I have a bunch of plants that need a little work. The 50 gal seed is losing lots of leaves. I must not be feeding it enough, overwatering or maybe theres some sort of lock out. The plant looks nice and healthy. Leaves just turn yellow and die. Looked like a calcium or magnesium deficiency but i saw a septoria spot. I wouldn't think I've over feed or locked out using the small amounts of nutes I've used. It will be time to feed again soon. It's in the middle of flowering and still has leaves. I'm hoping things work out. I just have an anxiety disorder and worry too much. I'm GOING To have a great harve! I just need to keep moving forward and putting in the work. 9/6 What a fucking shitty morning. I did research on how to keep skunks out of your garden. Because I smelled it and the neighbors shot a few. Dad put traps out and it caught one. It wasn't a no spray trap so I approached it with him. Both had tarps. I kept telling him to throw it while I was distracting it bur he got a cramp and only got it over half. The half away from my garden. It's pretty far and down in a field but still. We had talked all morning about how to release it. I offered to drive their dog to take it for a walk so his alcoholic girlfriend wouldn't spiteful put the dog on its run. It wouldn't be sprayed but I made it out like it would ruin my plants. Picked dad up and got him to the bathroom. In that 30 seconds the stupid bitch grabbed the dog and brought it outside despite me YELLING "Can't you wait 5 minutes!? We've been dealing with this all morning. I heard fuck you in my head and she did it anyway. Dog ran at the skunk barking and it sprayed. Not a lot but I was fucking pissed. She's a full blown alcoholic and doesn't like me around early or the fact that my old man's 80 and house is mine. Anyway I got back and there was NO SKUNK SMELL. AT ALL! I WATERED EVERYTHING BUT SHERB PIE AND FED EVERYTHING BUT SHERB PIE. ILL FEED AND WATER THAT TOMORROW. WATERED A GALLON WITH A QUART OF FEED. Researched my strains found out they were all "difficult" to grow. One year ago to the Day I cut my first tenth planet. I got a couple close to a few weeks but the others will be later. If I can pull this off though I'll have some crazy quality! Grateful for what I have that's for sure! I doubled beastie bloom this time. We'll see how it goes.nothings uploading. I did some vids a pictures but I'll have to upload today. 9/7 I think it rained last night. I forgot to water and feed the sherb pie but I'll do it when I get back. I shook off the plants the best I could. I need to get the leaf blower out now and put it to use. Buds are swelling like crazy. GMOs are very tight flowers. Same with the event horizon. Rock hard nugs. With the gmo's I'm not worried. The were monster cropped so they have enough leaves even if some do die off. The toasted toffy only has like four weeks left. Same with the event horizon. The plant in the ten is the furthest behind but it's extremely healthy. I removed some leaves from the bottom and large fan leaves. The plant in the 50 I hope finishes before it loses all its leaves. I treated it with plant doctor and SOME people strip their plants but I don't. I'm grateful for what I've got. Won't be the biggest harvest but WHEN I make it to the finish line I will have some incredibly potent strains. I'm proud of myself to even get these to finish seeingvthe level of difficulty on cultivation. I'm trying to upload some stuff. We'll see. 9/8 Apparently it rained pretty hard last night. Took forever to go through and shake everything off and defoliate what needs it. Sherb pie is praying to the sky and almost totally purple. It's flowering so much more in the last couple days. Everything has. Even the one in the ten is stacking up! I defoliated most of what needed it and I was soaked. I noticed a branch on the middle gmo that was getting heavy and starting to break away from the trunk. It wad wobbly but I don't think there was a break un the Cambrian. I made a sling with rope (couldn't find zip ties) and I pulled it tight amd secured that branch to the tomato cage. GMO buds are hard as rocks. Everything is in overdrive. They liked that beastie bloom. I have cha ching but nothings ready for that yet I don't think. We'll the event horizon and toasted toffy might be I'll have to check. It's been beautiful today but not too hot. Lots of wind which is good. I'll upgrade supports as needed. Flowers are progressing at an amazing rate. Weather is supposed to be great the next few days. I'll keep this updated. 9/9 Had to shake the plants off. WATERED EVERYTHING BUT THE SHERB PIE WHICH WAS REALLY HEAVY. It's also lost a lot of leaves and the majority of leaves have turned purple. Toasted toffy and event horizon and red runts are pretty far into flower. I tried to take some pictures. Even the ten is blowing up! That looks like I'm going to switch to cha ching when flower gets further. Trichs are developing nicely on the ones further in flower. This year it's going to be quality over quantity. All these strains are ranked HARD to grow but have insane cannabinoid profiles and high THC %'s. So if I can keep it together for another month I'll be golden. Looking forward to it. This is the fun part. It's also the anxiety provoking part. I've learned a lot just since joining grow diaries.

Couple belters coming right out the traps large bulky stocks fingers crossed this growth keeps

Skywalker came down mid week with mostly cloudy trichomes. Probably could’ve pulled it longer but it looked ready to me and I’m expecting kush effects anyway. Blueberry has a beautiful fade that would probably have scared me my first grow. She has definitely had calcium issues which is causing some leaves to burn crispy. That can all be cut away after drying so im not too concerned. Arguably i could’ve chopped her this week but i think she has more to do before her time is up Glueberry OG just now getting some yellowing of leaves. Hard to tell if it’s a deficiency or fade to my eye but i top dressed a small amount of NLS concentrate before it gets much further along. This might be a mistake this far along but I’m willing to learn from it if it is

She is fattening up slowly but surely, pure water from now on. The light times have also been reduced to 10 hours to speed up the growth as I need the grow room quite quick and this strain is taking longggg and she stinks the whole street out when the windows are open! ( I can't smell it because I'm used to it lol) Some light over the horizon as pistils are starting to turn brown at lower levels somewhat and trichomes becoming more cloudier whilst earlier trichomes turn an Amber like colour. Fox tail issue has been somewhat resolved by increasing ventilation and reducing light power via the dimmer. Here's to flushing!! 609 ppm and 1168 us/cm 25.0 degrees celcius

Week 2 Report: The White OG - The Solo Survivor Shines 🌟 She may be the solo survivor, but The White OG is already proving she’s a beauty in the making! With her third set of leaves emerging, she’s entering Week 2 of veg and starting to find her stride. This week has been all about supporting her early growth with balanced nutrition, a perfect environment, and plenty of love. Let’s dive into why Week 2 is such a game-changer and how the Aptus Holland line is setting her up for success. Why Week 2 Veg Is Vital 🌱 This is a pivotal time for any grow. The foundation laid in Week 2 determines how well your plant will perform later. It’s about encouraging root development, strengthening the stem, and building the resilience she’ll need for the big stages ahead. The third set of leaves is a sign that she’s transitioning from her seedling phase into a true vegging plant, which means she’s ready for a little extra care in the form of feeding. Feeding with Aptus Holland: A Total Game-Changer This week, I introduced the Aptus Holland organic-mineral line, and wow—this stuff is incredible! It combines the best of organic and mineral worlds for balanced, healthy growth. What’s Organic-Mineral Nutrition? • Organic Benefits: Enriches microbial health and enhances soil vitality, building a strong biological base. • Mineral Benefits: Offers immediate, direct nutrient uptake for steady, balanced growth. • Why It’s Awesome: Plants get the best of both worlds, growing stronger, healthier, and more resilient. This Week’s Feeding Schedule • Regulator (0.15 ml/L): A silica-based product that toughens plant structure, helps manage stress, and boosts nutrient uptake. Think of it as your plant’s personal trainer—keeping her sturdy and stress-free. 🌟 Why It Matters: Stronger stems = better support for future growth. • CalMag Boost (0.25 ml/L): Essential for developing robust cell walls and producing lush chlorophyll. Calcium and magnesium are like the bricks and mortar of your plant’s structure. 🌟 Why It Matters: Ensures vibrant, lush leaves and steady early growth. • All-in-One Liquid (1 ml/L): A perfectly balanced nutrient blend that provides everything she needs in one feed. Ideal for ensuring no deficiencies as she picks up the pace. 🌟 Why It Matters: Simplifies feeding while delivering complete nutrition. • Start Booster (0.25 ml/L): Packed with root-stimulating microbes and essential nutrients, this is the secret weapon for explosive root growth. 🌟 Why It Matters: Strong roots = a stronger plant overall. She’s ready to soar! Tent Conditions: Consistency Is Key The tent setup remains steady, providing the ideal environment for healthy growth: • Temperature: Warm and stable—perfect for vigorous vegetative growth. • Humidity: High RH ensures tropical vibes and keeps her roots hydrated as she develops her third set of leaves. • Lighting: The Future of Grow (FOG) LED at 200 PPFD delivers just the right intensity to keep her compact and growing strong.

The flowers are really starting to stack and thicken up. This is going to be a much more bountiful harvest than I thought previously. The smell is out of this world. creamy berry gasoline. update 11/21: I opened the tent this morning and was inspired to take some updated pics and a couple videos showing the entire plants. I am just amazed with these @mephistogenetics I highly doubt I will ever use another seed company again. Just the progress they have made in the past 3 days has me a believer for sure. 45 days in and they have some amazing weight on them already. I'm guessing these will be between 50 and 75g dry weight per plant when done, Even the side branches are stacking up some nice fat nugs, bigger than golf balls already.

12 days after the switch Tropicanna Banana shows her sex and officially begins flowering. On day 28 I started with the Bio Heaven and Acti Vera stimulators, although the soil is prefertilized for only 2 weeks, the girls are in perfect shape and for now they don't need fertilizers. I inserted wooden supports in the grow to reduce the effect of negative pressure, it took away important space for growing. This week i've stopped using the humidifier.

The tale of the Goddesses is ending. Through this grow, I have given tribute to matriarchs-my grandmother and my mother who have influenced who I am in this world. I’ve showcased their art, photographs, and their lifetimes. I shared our family history through old photos while also showcasing the art of Alphonse Mucha in the Art Neuveux style he created in the early 1900's. The femininity reflected in his art elevates women to Goddesses with their flowing hair and floral backgrounds. In the diary I indicated I wanted to be a healer in my younger years. I wasn't a medical professional by career choice, but I provide natural nontoxic solutions for cleaning and beauty products and have for my family and friends for over 25 years. Not only are the items healthy and clean, but they are also effective and save you money. And who doesn't want that? I added the song Woman by Iris Gold. Have a listen in you tube or amazon music. Shoot for the stars and may all your dreams come true. My cover for Harvest and Smoke report is Alphonse Mucha’s poster for Job cigarette papers. This is one of the most famous works in design history. Taking its cue from a new kind of female beauty, its modern girl has hair with a life of its own. The tendrils look more like the floating tentacles of a jellyfish. This is in vast contrast to the style of the times when women wore their hair tightly pulled up on their heads. For most people, though, the Job poster is less likely to be associated with belle époque Paris of early 1900’s, than the swinging 1960s. Its blissed-out smoker and trippy swirls made it an obvious choice for the bedroom walls of a later generation of freedom-seekers. In posters for perfume, beer, biscuits, bicycles, and Job Cigarettes (1896) he blurred the barrier between fine art and commercial art, between commerce and philosophy. The weekly diary covers I presented show Mucha’s style - organic and ornate, graceful and dynamic, with curving, swooping lines and Byzantine borders, lettering, and frames. The iconic 'Mucha woman' had curves, flowing hair, pastel robes, and often a halo of light or flowers. His women burst with life. I have mixed emotions about my grow and harvest. My results indicate I have a lot to learn. This was my 3rd grow and I still have problems with over feeding my auto girls. wh For all future grows I will reduce any synthetic fertilizer to 1/4 to 1/2 the recommended dosage. Overfeeding caused clawing and canoeing followed by nutrient lockout. While I was trying to correct this problem, flushing for 3 weeks to get out the excess fertilizers and salts, the girls were already overmature and past harvest. Checking trichomes at 10 weeks, there were few trichomes and didn't see much more until week 12. I checked with my phone camera at 10x magnification every other day. I saw lots of clear, then clear and milky, then all milky but never did I see any amber trichomes. The plants began to reveg based on the King Crown buds developing (see pics in week 15). The CBG may have degraded to CBN since I was 3-4 weeks late in harvest. If that is true, I don't mind since I need sleep medicine too. I lost Circe at the end due to aphid infestation. Ater several power washing with the hose on jet, we could not get the bugs off. So, I chopped her and into the trash she went. I did only minor defoliation near the end of the grow but neither plant was very leafy. For future grows, I will defoliate on a schedule, do some stress training maybe fimming, lollypopping, and defoiliating. Note to self: when buying seeds, look for more growing information on the strain such as when trichomes are expected and days to harvest. Knowledge is power. On the flip side, my happiness comes from the completion of a grow the harvest was 57 grams of smoke and 26 grams trim was not the highest yield but workable for what I need. As I indicated in the beginning, my plan, in addition to enjoying the smoke, is to put CBG in my health & beauty products. So, you don't have to wait for me to make mine, I've loaded a pain salve recipe above from Emily Kyle for a CBD or THC. The recipe shown makes 3/4 cup but can be doubled or halved. I'm, so excited I have decarbed my CBG trim and will use to make this formula while the buds are curing. I will also include some Lemon auto which is 17:17 CBD:THC to give it some other cannabinoids. I'll also put the recipe in the recipe diary. CBG will go in the coconut oil I use in my toothpaste ( recipe loaded in recipe file) If you follow me, check my recipe diary periodically as I will add new food and beauty recipes in future grows. For my readers and followers, I express my sincere gratitude for all the comments, likes and views and thank you for responding to my questions. I always hate having to pick one answer because they are all good. Just know that I learn from every one's answers. In closing, this Grow Diaries community is the best. With all the love and positive vibes I received, I got overwhelmed at times. As this was my medical grow, many of you sent me good vibes and prayers for continued healing. I feel your energy and it keeps my frequency up. I have enjoyed meeting and chatting with all of you. I'll be starting my next grow soon so follow along with that one too. Sending you love and good vibes 💚💫💫💚. Enjoy your smoke💨💨 Happy growing 🌱and have fun🎉
