This the last day of them been in vegetative stage. End of 8 th week. Did defoliation , going grow pass the net trellis I am sure. But they manage to handle the cutting & bouncing back… it do get cold in here when the light is not on. Hope that it doesn’t affect her growth….

So as we step into week 6 things are starting to shape up nicely Seedsman - strawberry banana grape are fantastic frosty and loads and loads of heads due to me topping Seedsman- peyote gorilla wow I have not smelt bud like it before wonderful and full of thc Inhouse genetics- dolato is one frosty girl and starting to pack on weight Inhouse genetics- platinum gushers 2 different phenos one throwing out more people's red Inhouse genetics- slurrcaine smells like heaven and is the most dankest in my pheno hunt Phoenix seeds - super kush I brought these over from my last run very fast strain and smells really sweet Zamnesia seeds-larry bird kush 3 different phenos all smell different can't wait to see the out come Barney's farm - phantom OG I don't know where to start with this just simply dank Seedsman - bubba kush was a freebie which I didn't care about or take clones and omg its probly one of the best smelling plants I'm running so Im going to reveg it I can't lose this pheno Seedsman - super silver haze OG another freebie what I got and am quite pleased with Last but not least Seedsman- limited edition wedding cake 😋 I'm excited for this one but takes quite long to pack on the weight all in all I'm quite happy

•Seconda settimana• Ciao ragazzi !! Dopo i primi 15 giorni di vita (totali) le piante presentano una bellissima cera, sinonimo di irrigazione e nutrimenti corretti (nonostante il PH fosse alto). Ricordo che mantenere livelli ottimali di umidità, temperatura e PH mette la pianta in condizioni perfette per poter aumentare il rendimento finale.

Week 6 Flower – A Hard Lesson: Bud Rot Quick Recap – From Seed to Here This Lava Cake run started beautifully: • Germination was smooth and fast using the Cannakan with Aptus Regulator and Start Booster. • Veg went strong, with both phenos thriving under the Black Series LED and later joined by ThinkGrow and Lumatek support. • Transplants into 11L fabric pots gave them space to expand, roots looked stunning. • Early flower (weeks 1–4) brought explosive growth, thick white hairs, and dense colas forming under carefully tuned nutrition — Aptus base inputs with Plagron complements. But the same density that made these flowers shine also made them vulnerable. High humidity swings and airflow inconsistencies created the perfect conditions for bud rot (Botrytis cinerea) to sneak in. What Happened This Week Despite our best efforts, phenotype two (Lava Cake #2) showed visible signs of bud rot. To protect the garden, she was harvested early. Infected material was thrown straight into the trash (not compost — spores spread too easily), and the healthy parts are now drying in a separate, controlled space. Phenotype one (Lava Cake #1) remains in the tent. She has minor spots, but overall is swelling and pushing forward. She’ll be closely monitored daily to make sure the infection doesn’t spread. 👉 Full educational article from Zamnesia: 🔗 Bud Rot Cannabis Grower Guide – Zamnesia https://www.zamnesia.com/grow-weed/563-bud-rot-cannabis-grower-guide What Bud Rot Is • Caused by Botrytis cinerea, a fungus that thrives in warm, humid, poorly ventilated conditions. • Begins inside dense buds, hidden from sight, and by the time it appears on the surface, the inner cola is usually already compromised. • Spreads quickly if unchecked, especially in crowded flowering rooms. Why It Happened • Humidity spikes during flower. • Airflow not perfectly balanced, leaving “dead spots” in the canopy. • Dense colas trapping moisture. • Temperature swings stressing the balance further. Prevention Tips (for us and for everyone reading) • Lower humidity in mid/late flower (40–50%, then 35–40% near harvest). • Strong airflow: oscillating fans above and below canopy + efficient extraction/intake. need improving in here for my next run • Regular defoliation to open the canopy. • Daily inspections of the biggest buds. • Harvest at the right time — pushing too long in risky environments can invite problems. What to Expect / Not to Expect Going Forward • Lava Cake #2: She’s drying now. Expect about 2 weeks of slow, careful drying under controlled temps and humidity. With bud rot, extra caution is needed — we won’t rush, but we’ll also make sure nothing risky makes it through. Expect reduced yield because of the early cut and loss of infected colas, but quality and safety will come first. • Lava Cake #1: She will continue swelling in the tent. Expect daily monitoring, improved airflow, and cautious optimism. If she stays strong, she could still finish beautifully. • The Room: We’ll dial in airflow and humidity management even tighter, keeping CO₂ and temps in check, and prepare the AC unit to avoid these swings in the future. Closing Thoughts Bud rot is a tough enemy, but also one of the most important teachers in growing. It reminds us that environment control is just as vital as genetics or nutrients. Yes, we lost part of this run, but we also gained experience that will make every future run stronger. And sharing this openly might help others spot it sooner, act faster, and maybe even save their crop.

Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 P.S. – Drying After Bud Rot Harvest For Lava Cake #2, we harvested the entire plant and are drying her whole. Because bud rot was present, we’re being extra careful: • Drying in a separate, controlled space, away from the main room. • Temperature kept around 18–20°C, with humidity 50–55% — steady and stable. • Gentle airflow moving through the room, never directly on the buds. • Daily inspections to ensure no hidden spots continue developing. The goal is a slow 10–14 day dry, preserving as much aroma and quality as possible, while making absolutely sure nothing unhealthy makes it through. With bud rot, safety comes first — anything questionable goes straight to the trash. 👉 Why whole-plant drying? By leaving the plant intact, moisture moves more gradually from stems and inner tissues to the buds. This slows down the drying process, prevents overdrying, and helps preserve delicate terpenes and flavonoids that give Lava Cake her unique flavor. Especially after a bud rot scare, a steady, controlled dry is essential for both safety and quality.

56 days!!!!! wow this week it really rained a lot, there were storms during which we had to bring the girl into the house so that she wouldn't be broken by the strong wind:) but all that stopped, and the nice weather has already started:) it looks beautiful, and an interesting experience :) good luck to everyone:).

Smooth and relatively quick trim, and very low yield. Still, it was free so I can't complain at all - and the bud does look really nice :) Not perfect, but not bad either.

The buds did seem a little airy and fluffy after dry trim. Granted they were full of trichomes, although i do wish they were more dense. The plant did spend its last 5 weeks of flower outdoors in the greenhouse so possibly the extreme heat could have been the culprit. She is full of dark ember orange/red hairs and has super bag appeal. The smoke is smooth with a high that just smacks you about half way through the joint. The smoke was smooth and the high was very indica dominant with an initial hour of cerebal pleasure proceeding the later heavy high . Very unique and wonderful smell as she cures. The high is very strong and clear minded. Its good for an evening smoke in my opinion. Can be a heavy high but without the couch lock.

BIGGER:STRONGER:FASTER #NITROHAZE #OUTDOORGANG D77 23deJunio Se nota que comenzo a florar justo al entrar a Invierno. Ahora comenzaremos la lucha de frio en invierno. Esperemos sobreviva y nos desguste con esos tonos azules y morados que promete @BSFSeeds en su genetica #NitroHaze D78 Le realizo super cropping a todas las ramas, para dar una mejor vigorosidad en el crecimiento de floracion. Las temperaturas continuan bajisimas pero aun asi durante el dia hay Sol, que abriga y da vida a las plantitas. D79 Del Stress ocacionado aun no se recupera, han sido dias muy frios y con pronosticos de lluvia asique esperemos que todo se mantenga en orden y no corramos riesgos. Para ayudarla con el stress hoy regue con delta 8 y aplique dosis minima (0.3gr/Lt agua) de Monster Bloom en polvo de Grotek. D82 Defolación, para dar mas luz a la produccion del fruto, ademas de un LST en las dos copas que habian quedado del Corte Apical.- --- A media noche entre pisco y algunos caños de bluechesse le hice LST a otras ramas mas bajas que al parecer necesitaban atencion. Estoy aplicando todos estos diferentes stress antes de la 4 o 5 semana de floracion, debido a que aun se puede y no afecta si no, favorece ( o no se en verdad lo veremos en el camino)

So this grow came to a finshed but I had a. Few issues that’s held me up from finishing up the diary, but in due time I will reupload it all in order soon. But over all I will also update with a final weigh in of each strain produced so stay tuned 🤙🏻🔥

Day 44 since flipping and this girl is getting close to finishing. No more feeding for her. Just some Cyco Supa Sticky today and next watering and water from there on out. Got about 75-80 percent cloudy. The sweet orange citrus smell is PHENOMENAL! Got about 2, maybe 3, weeks left and she'll be done. Had to tie up a couple branches because she's falling over from putting on weight! I love her!

These plants are getting bigger and bigger, i really like the shape of them, they look vigorous, at the moment great strain, still need to see the buds but its looking good 👍

------------------------- | BLUEBERRY HARVEST | ------------------------- After two sunny days it is harvest time !! - Finally, 16 days of flush - At first thought, the trimming would be easier compared to my previous plants, but when removing more leaves, more buds appearing too hahaha so it took like 4 hours or more..It is not the most accuurate trimming but i had not much time that day, i removed all the leaves and branches after weighting it all.. Like i said on the last post, im harvesting having in mind my bud preferences (the later the better), weather, humidity and sunlight, so the first of the cloudy/rainy days she was chopped in the moring, attending the principle of thc regeneration at night.. Got to say that, i wasnt expecting such production (8 days until it was well dried), this plant started as the season saver because the Cheese started to flower in march, revegged etc.. and i have been rewarded with this BB, a true genetic portent !! If i could, i would keep her as mother forever ^^ The quality is awesome, she looks more like a WW talking about that coat of thc.. Flavour without proper cure, is deep earthy at first, transitioning to a fruity, sweet one, it is a pleasure to smoke, delicious sweet aftertaste.. Maybe, this is the last year with this awesome climate, because im planning to leave Spain.. Thank you for follow and check !!! I hope you liked the diary :) Song of the week : Radiohead - Codex Good Vibes GrowDiaries !! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 000000000000

Start Woche 6 Blüte. Das einzige was gerade gemacht wird ist 1 mal wöchentlich nen neuen Tank Nährlösung anzusetzen.. Hin und wieder kommen große Fanleafs weg, ansonsten siehts Grad gut aus, wobei die rechte grade wieder etwas gelb wird... 😥

Endlich haben sich die Geschlechter eindeutig zu erkennen gegeben ... Ich habe eine Dame ausgewählt - Es war Dame Nr.1 : sie war die erste die gekeimt hat und die erste die eindeutig geblüht hat - Der Rest waren auch Mädchen : die habe ich in die Mülltonne entsorgt ! Dame Nummer 1 wächst recht schlank und aufrecht / locker - Ich hatte sie über der 4. Nodie getoppt .... Sie riecht herrlich nach Citrus und ein wenig skunkig ....

Really coming along, I'm very happy to watch her do her thing in this second half of flower. She's very earthy with some notes of pine. Smells just like the dank stuff I've been smoking my whole life! Man I can't wait to keep growing. I hope to expand the grow operation here soon, hopefully with another tent. I want to keep autos in different stages so I can streamline everything, have a plant popping while one vegges, while another flowers. Keep the flow steady and my fridge full of weed lol. Speaking of, I am using my fridge to dry! The Lotus Method for anyone familiar.

Germinating 3 Purple Kush Feminised seeds. filtered water in glass, also add 3/5 drops of hydrogen peroxide, stir water well before adding the seeds, and stir again after adding seeds to water. I will leave it for 24 hours The seed coat softens by soaking your seeds in a hydrogen peroxide solution, allowing the seeds to absorb more oxygen. This results in increased germination speed Hopefully all 3 seeds will germinate by tomorrow? Seeds popped today:-)transferred 3 Purple Kush seeds in to small pots 10/09/23 3 Purple Kush seeds, 1 seed in each small pot. Each Pot is Half filled with lite mix compost and Half filled with Vermiculite , watered planting medium before sowing seeds 2cm deep in planting medium. The seed will push through the vermiculite easley with very little effort, in effect increasing higher successful germination rate, the compost will offer the first tap root an immediate lite nutrient supply. Placed 3 pots on top of a Propagation heating mat for correct germination temperature, position in a shaded place, and keep out of direct sunlight. This may seem like a lot of effort? and it is, but it will be highly beneficial by increasing a higher germination rate and higher amount of seeds will germinate from using this method :-) especially if your seeds were expensive. 11/09/23 no sprouts above the vermiculite yet, i will check it again tomorrow. Today 2 Purple Kush Germinate and rise above the vermiculite 3 days after sowing. Purple Kush is going ok, it could be growing faster, unfortunately i can't upload new photos because there is a problem in the GD system, they are doing there best to fix this problem as soon as possible. GMO Cookies where started 16/09/23 filtered water in glass, also add 3/5 drops of hydrogen peroxide, stir water well before adding the seeds, and stir again after adding seeds to water. 3 seeds sprouted, but only 2 survived, it become to hot and one GMO Cookie sprout died. I have now started another strain (Party Monster) 19/09/23 filtered water in glass, also add 3/5 drops of hydrogen peroxide, stir water well before adding the seeds, and stir again after adding seeds to water. I will leave it for 24 hours, 5 seeds of Party Monster have sprouted and are under the same 100W LED grow light. GMO Cookies have all come up above the vermiculite and are now positioned under a 100W LED, there is a small clip on fan blowing and circulating the air. This is my second attempt to grow GMO Cookies from 3 feminised seeds, i messed up on the first 3 seeds, i put them under a 250 Watt LED and it fried them, my folt. Growing from germinating seeds is a very delicate situation, your environment temperature needs good control. 2 Party Monster seedlings are looking good, coming along well under the 100W LED light. 3 GMO Cookies are looking good also under the 100W LED light. Plus i have now started soaking in glass of water 03/10/23, 5 Strawberry Yields fem seeds aka Strawberry Fields. filtered water in glass, also add 3/5 drops of hydrogen peroxide, stir water well before adding the seeds, and stir again after adding seeds to water. I will leave it for 24 hours. The seed coat softens by soaking your seeds in a hydrogen peroxide solution, allowing the seeds to absorb more oxygen. This results in increased germination speed Hopefully all 5 seeds will germinate by tomorrow? The 3 GMO Cookies fem seedlings are coming along well, keeping them under the hood of a propagator, i have many mixed seedlings under the same hood, to keep seedlings protected from this relentless Spanish heat. 5 Strawberry Yields fem seeds have all sprouted and are above vermiculite, keeping them under the hood of a propagator, i have many mixed seedlings under the same hood, to keep seedlings protected from this relentless Spanish heat. Also positioned also under the 100W LED light, indoor temp 29 degrees humidity 65%, still to hot for seedlings to be directly under lights due to high temp in the room. 3 Strawberry Yields sprouts are doing well, gave 2 seedlings away, no space for all 5 plants, coming along well under the 100W LED light. 27 degrees humidity 55% good growing conditions Super Lemon Haze I began soaking 13 feminised seeds SLH since 27/10, after 24 hours soaking 11 seeds opened in filtered water in glass, also added 3/5 drops of hydrogen peroxide, stir water well before adding the seeds, and stir again after adding seeds to water. The seed coat softens by soaking your seeds in a hydrogen peroxide solution, allowing the seeds to absorb more oxygen. This results in increased germination speed! 1 Super Lemon Haze fem seed planted in a 2 ltr pot 28/10, this is the only plant i will keep for flowering. The Pot is Half filled with lite mix compost, and the rest of the pot is half filled to the top with Vermiculite , watered planting medium thoroughly soaking it before sowing seeds 2cm deep in vermiculite. The seed will push through the vermiculite easley with very little effort, in effect encouraging a higher successful germination rate, the compost will offer the first tap root an immediate lite nutrient supply. And i planted the 11 remaining popped SLH seeds in the brown round pot, this is just to see how many will rise above the vermiculite from the 13 SLH fems seeds soaked on 27/10. I will give these away to a friend. Both pots have been placed on a propagating heating mat for consistent and ideal germination temperature until all seeds have risen above the vermiculite. Once my 1 fem seed has germinated! i will cover the pot with a transparen plastic bag and place the pot 20cm below a 100W LED light. Super Lemon Haze feminised seeds Seeds sourced from Satdica Bulk Seeds Soaked seeds 27/10 planted up on 28/10, 12 out of 13 seeds have transformed in to 12 healthy little seedlings. 11 seedlings will be given away to a friend, and i will keep the one seedling you see already planted up in a black 2 ltr size pot. Now positioned under my 100W LED light, distance 15cm above seedlings. Light cycle 24 hours. Keeping them covered with propagating hood for a few days longer to allow seedlings to become better established before removing the hood. The vents on hood are fully open to allow seedling to slowly become accustomed to the outside vege room space. Gelato Cookies 3 Feminised seeds Satdica Bulk Seeds Popped 3 Gelato Cookies Feminised seeds today 06/11 filtered water or bottled water in a glass, also add 3/5 drops of hydrogen peroxide, stir water well before adding the seeds, and stir again after adding seeds to water. I will leave it for 24 hours The seed coat softens by soaking your seeds in a hydrogen peroxide solution, allowing the seeds to absorb more oxygen. After placing on propagating heating mat for 24 hours. This resulted in increased germination speed! and today i can see little white taproot tails protruding out from the seed husk 👌 3 Gelato Cookies seeds, 1 seed in each small pot. Each Pot is Half filled with lite mix compost and Half filled with Vermiculite , watered planting medium before sowing seeds 2cm deep in planting medium. Spoon your seeds into it's planting medium, do not touch with fingers, spoon it in with half spoon of water and a seed, place the seed in the center 2cm deep in the planting medium, water it in again very lightly to help the seed settle into a comfortable position before leaving it to rest covered on your heating mat. The seed will push through the vermiculite easley with very little effort, in effect increasing higher successful germination rate, the compost will offer the first tap root an immediate lite nutrient supply. Watered and fed them in with Plagron Terra Grow 5ml to a ltr of water, i may have added too much, perhaps 2/3ml to a ltr of water would have been enough? placed 3 pots on top of a Propagation heating mat for correct germination temperature, position in a shaded place, and keep out of direct sunlight. This may seem like a lot of effort? and it is, but it will be highly beneficial by increasing a higher germination rate and higher amount of seeds will germinate from using this method :) especially if your seeds were expensive. 3 Gelato Cookies have come through the vermiculite, 09/11 and now they are positioned under my 100W LED grow light. I didn't expect all 3 seeds to pop, because 1 seed looked like perhaps not viable, because i only keep the bad looking seeds for myself and keep the best seeds for customers. I am keeping them covered with transparent plastic bags for a few days to protect them in case it's to hot in the 24/7 grow room which is 24 degrees, this is probably an ok temp for them? but i'd rather not run the risk. Romulan Feminised seeds Germinating 3 Romulan Feminised seeds 26/11 filtered water in glass, also add 3/5 drops of hydrogen peroxide, stir water well before adding the seeds, and stir again after adding seeds to water. I will leave it for 24 hours The seed coat softens by soaking your seeds in a hydrogen peroxide solution, allowing the seeds to absorb more oxygen. This results in increased germination speed Hopefully all 3 seeds will germinate by tomorrow? 27/11
