## Week 6 Update: Strong Vegetative Growth Continues 🌿💚 ### 🌱 Preparing for Flowering 🌱 Welcome back! In Week 6, all three of our plants—Greenhouse Super Lemon Haze, Humboldt Seed Bubba Kush, and Blueberry Muffin—are still in the vegetative stage. They are thriving, and this extended time in veg is allowing them to develop robust structures, setting the stage for a strong flowering phase later on. --- ### 🌼 Vegetative Progress 🌼 **Greenhouse Super Lemon Haze 🌞** - Growing vigorously, with significant height and branch development. - The plant is responding well to LST, creating a wider and more even canopy. **Humboldt Seed Bubba Kush 🌿** - Compact and bushy, with strong, dense growth. - Ideal for smaller spaces, this plant is developing a solid foundation for flowering. **Blueberry Muffin 🥞** - Showing lush foliage and thickening stems. - The extended vegetative period is helping to ensure a healthy, resilient plant ready to support heavy buds. --- ### 🌱 Vegetative Techniques 🌱 To maximize growth during this stage, I’ve focused on several key techniques: - **Low-Stress Training (LST):** Continually training the branches to spread out and create multiple bud sites. - **Topping:** Applied to promote bushier growth and enhance yield potential. - **Defoliation:** Light defoliation to improve air circulation and light penetration to the lower parts of the plants. - **Nutrient Management:** Maintaining a balanced nutrient schedule with an emphasis on nitrogen to support healthy vegetative growth. --- ### 🌿 Looking Ahead 🌿 With all plants still in the vegetative stage, the focus remains on building strong, healthy plants. This extended veg time will pay off when we finally transition to flowering, ensuring that the plants are well-prepared to produce large, high-quality buds. Stay tuned for next week's update as we continue to nurture these plants and prepare for the eventual switch to flowering! Happy growing! 🌿💚

28/05/2024 - seeds were placed in a shot glass of water to for 18 hours 29/05/2024 - all seedlings except the Auto Power Plant were showing signs of a tap root and were transfered onto paper towels and placed inside a dark cool space. 30/05/2024 - of the 3 Power plant seedlings only one showed signs of a tap root so they were transfered to a paper towel on a plate and placed with the others. 02/06/2024 - one day behind but thankfully we got our seedlings into their grodan blocks and into their dome with a mars hydro heat mat set to 85F to speed up the process, we also have our 500w led set 24 inches away from the dome lid and will be updating 18 hours from now at 7am. 03/06/2024 - Seedlings are looking healthy and have been given some "Plagron Power roots" liquid nutrients. We shall keep our eyes closely on them.

Greetings Rastamans, as you can see my girl is getting thicker and is growing weekly. Every used fertilizers have very good results. Slowly aproaching the time of harvesting, This is evidenced by the trichomes as well as the timing of the flowering cycle. I believe that the harvest from this plant will be great. Use of the necessarry techniques at the right period of times gave me the results that you see yourselves. It is the last day of lighting. It will be in dark for 36hrs. Also today defoliation will take its place and I have already splited main stalk. hope you get enjoyment and also knowledge from my diaries. Wish you all good luck. Yours trully Rastagrow

Flowering day 3 since time change to 12 / 12 h Hey guys . My cutting heating broke 3-4 weeks ago, which was fixed immediately and everything went wonderfully. Now, 3 days ago, the central heating broke down in the entire room, so that at night I only have temperatures of around 13 degrees :-( . One or the other lady is slowly starting to see a phosphorus blockage, as this can no longer be absorbed at temperatures below 15 degrees, like many other nutrients :-( . A friend looked at the heating yesterday and came to the conclusion that a real company had to do it, which is by no means possible for a stranger to enter my room. I quickly ordered heating mats for all the boxes so that the ladies could at least get warm feet. That's all I have this winter full can do . Let's hope everything will be fine 🙏🏻. As soon as the heating mats are attached in the coming days, I will post them in the pictures. Now for the update. Despite the severe cold, the ladies are still doing well and have made good progres . The ladies only had to be watered once this week, each time with 1 l, because it absorbs the water very slowly because of the cold and I don't want to overwater it. I took every single plant in the pot to take a close look at their roots. These are snow white and look very healthy 🙏🏻. It was also the last time neem oil sprayed so that the last trips are finally gone. Otherwise everything was checked and a lot of planning was done, like I do with the heating mats. Since a friend had the same problem in one winter and the heating mats got 10 degrees plus on the pots, I am very confident that it will at least bring something for the last cold month 😃 🙏🏻. I've started flowering even if some are still a bit small, but otherwise they'll get too wide from training and end up taking up space :-) until then have fun and stay healthy 🙏🏻 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 A thank you for this wonderful strain goes out to Herzog https://instagram.com/herzog030?utm_medium=copy_link and the Exotic Seeds team You can buy this Nutrients at : https://greenbuzzliquids.com/en/shop/ With the discount code: Made_in_Germany you get a discount of 15% on all products from an order value of 100 euros.

Blütewoche 3 – Radikale Entlaubung & Pflanzenpflege Zeitraum: Vom 05. Juni bis 12. Juni Zu Beginn dieser Woche habe ich mich an eine großflächige Entlaubung gemacht, da sich das Blätterdach der Pflanze sehr üppig entwickelt hatte. Diesmal war es ein richtiger Radikalschnitt – es ging ordentlich Blattmasse verloren. Ziel war, mehr Licht an die unteren Triebe zu bringen und die Luftzirkulation zu verbessern. Um der Pflanze bei der Regeneration unter die Arme zu greifen, habe ich 6 Liter Wasser mit EM1 (Effektive Mikroorganismen) gegossen, um das Bodenleben zu stärken und die Pflanze vital zu halten. Verlust von Trieben: Leider sind mir beim Entlauben drei Äste abgebrochen. Zwei davon haben es nicht überlebt – eine jedoch hat sich erstaunlicherweise wieder erholt. Trotz des Verlusts konnte ich keine ernsthafte Beeinträchtigung der Gesamtstruktur erkennen. Beobachtung möglicher Mangelerscheinung: Zwischenzeitlich sah es kurzzeitig nach einem leichten Mangel aus. Blätter wurden von innen heller, am äußeren Rand dunkler, und wölbten sich etwas nach innen. Doch schon einen Tag später sah die Pflanze wieder völlig normal aus, also alles im grünen Bereich. Wurmhotel & Spezialfutter für die Würmer: Um das Bodenleben zusätzlich zu fördern, habe ich meinen Würmern etwas hochwertiges Wurmfutter gegönnt, bestehend aus: - gemahlenem Pilznährmalz - Kälbmehl - Neemcake - Algenkalk - Naturpur Grieß Davon streue ich wöchentlich eine Hand voll über die Erde sowie gezielt in die Wurmhotels. Und siehe da, zwei Tage später war alles restlos verschwunden! Die Würmer waren deutlich aktiv und sichtbar am Futtern. Sehr erfreulich zu sehen, wie lebendig und gesund das Mikrobiom im Boden ist. Allgemeiner Zustand & Wachstum: Im weiteren Verlauf der Woche habe ich die Äste weiter nach außen gezogen, um die Fläche optimal auszunutzen. Durch die Entlaubung kam nun spürbar mehr Licht an die unteren Bereiche, die Triebe entwickelten sich prächtig und schossen sichtbar in die Höhe. Maße am Ende der Woche: Breite: ca. 65 cm Höhe: ca. 15 cm Blütenentwicklung: Die Pflanze befindet sich jetzt klar in der Anfangsphase der Blüte. Die Blütenansätze sind deutlich sichtbar und zeigen ein gleichmäßiges, gesundes Wachstum. Die Pflanze wirkt insgesamt sehr vital und kräftig. Bis zur nächsten Woche!

📆 Semana 5 La Grease Monkey está sacando todo su carácter esta semana 🐒 🔹 Desarrollo floral: Los cogollos han empezado a ganar tamaño y están cubriéndose de una fina capa de resina que promete mucho, los pistilos siguen alargándose y ya empiezan a mostrar tonos más intensos 🔹 Tamaño y estructura: Planta de porte medio pero muy compacta, las ramas están cargadas de flores y soportan bien el peso gracias a una estructura sólida 🔹 Condiciones ambientales: La temperatura se ha mantenido estable entre 24-26°C y la humedad ronda el 50%, ideal para favorecer el engorde de los cogollos sin riesgos de hongos 🔹 Nutrición: Siguiendo con el plan de XpertNutrients, aunque he notado que una de las plantas muestra una ligera carencia, por lo que he añadido un pequeño refuerzo de cal/mag para corregir a tiempo y asegurar que el desarrollo siga sin problemas 🔹 Equipos utilizados: Bajo los Adlite de Mars Hydro los cogollos están compactándose de manera espectacular, la luz intensa y bien repartida está marcando la diferencia en el desarrollo de las flores 🔹 Observaciones generales: La Grease Monkey tiene un aroma cada vez más intenso y pegajoso, todo apunta a que la resina será uno de sus puntos fuertes, seguimos sin incidencias graves y el cultivo avanza con mucha fuerza ¡Seguimos creciendo fuerte! 💪

Look what I did to my girl, poor lady. But i'm sure she will bounce back, but with all that leaf shit It's hard to properly tie them down. So i broke off a total of 2 branches (yellow tape) and managed to attach one back to it. Otherwise she took all the stress LIKE A CHAMP - yet. We'll see. To be honest, i was quite lazy with her the last days, it was pretty stressful but look at her, she is basically growing herself! As long as you can cool it, have some sort of system to change water and some, basic nutrients and ph- DWC is the easiest system for me, 100% Look at the roots and i did not fill up the reservoir for like half a week, so a lot of it wsd exposed to air for a longer time still she is growing and growing. Two more weeks and i might have a problem with her in flower, because she will drink so much water the reservoir won't hold a long time haha. Almost forget, i need to add either more fertilizer /ml or give extra calmag. will probably do both kekw Cheers guys! (whoever reads this, this is your sign, get high 👌)

At one point, the water in the reservoir became anaerobic, causing the plants stress, so I cleaned it out along with the tray and reapplied the BioBizz nutrients according to the chart. I also added an aquarium pump to help keep the water stirred. When using organic nutrients, I realized that the pipes can become clogged, so every four weeks, I flush and clean everything. Other than that, and some temperature heat waves that I struggled with, the plants were happy.

It's been a great week for the seedlings! They've really taken off and are looking strong. I'm planning to transplant them into larger pots in the next few days, so next week's photos should show some impressive growth. I'm so excited to see how they thrive in their new homes! I've been giving them distilled water from the start, and I'm still doing that, but I just started adding 10 milliliters of Fox Farm Big Bloom and 1 milliliter of Fox Farm Grow Big. All of the seedlings are doing really well, and there's not really any visible difference between all the ten strains. I started all ten packs of each strain and kept all the best seedlings, so that's why they're all doing so well.

Week 8 Flower week 2 Flower-day 5 26/10/2025 Finally feeling good again! Kept the same nutrient mix almost the same, have had to use some others just to get by until more rock up 🙃 Floramax Veg 1: 1000ml Floramax Rezin: 400ml Floramax Organabud: 400ml Floramax Flowering Enhancer: 400ml Cyclo Platinum Silica: 200ml ISN Cal-Mag: 400ml (still waiting on my main one to be delivered, so using what’s left of this) Green Planet Massive Bloom: 200ml Green Planet Bud Booster: 4 scoops (30ml each) Sleeps with the Fishez: 100ml — used some hydrogen peroxide today while waiting for the next batch to arrive next week I’ve been looking into a flushing additive called New Millennium Winter Frost for a nice clean finish. Pistils finally popped up yesterday on a few of the top sites! Should start seeing some solid stretch from Grape og soon, guessing around 30 to 40cm at least. I’m letting her do her thing and reach up into the net for now. If she starts getting crowded before the end of week 3, I’ll kick off some early defoliation. Also got two AC Infinity IonBeam S11 lights set up sitting about level with the top colas. I’m aiming the light to hit the middle and lower sections instead of blasting the tops directly, trying to get that nice even coverage. Still debating whether I even need to scrog this run, but a few people keep telling me to give it a go to see the difference, I guess only one way to tell 🙌
