Belle formation

Hey guys, I did some LST with some copper dreads. I like Rubber tie tubes more but my brances are to small for that. A day later i gave them some water with enzymen ph 5.8-6 and yesterday i gave them nutrients and sprayed them with CANNA CURE. I decided to build a roof for my plants haha, i can't help myself giving them the best conditions i can give them for a outside grow. Bought some 20L pots and some garden dreads. Sadly it is still to cold in the night so i can't repot them and keep them outside 24/7. I'm not really sure if i like the way i LST them because it takes a lot of time to recover and grow but like i said i like to do different things everytime. Normaly you should LST them when you got more brances or just bend the main cola. The way i did it cost many leafs while not having much, so you take away lots of energy. By accident a brance from the plant in the middle(look at pictures) got cut off but i really didn't mind because i was planning to keep four plants instead of five :) ps, made the pictures at 10pm so the leaves are down a bit, i might make some new ones when they are happy in the sun therefore they are lifted more. They still get a few hours of sun every day when i put them outside and therefore they still grow slowly, it will take some time. I hope you enjoyed. Update: Made a new picture at daylight under the roof. Putted the plant I don't want to keep in the bigger pot and will keep her outside to see if she can manage through the night temperatures. If i don't see anything i don't like, keep growing in the comming week, i might put all my plants outside permanent.

Another one ! Was so fast , took 10 weeks . Got lot of big buds , never had so big from a small plant. 24.52gs not bad.

All good

She smells so nice 😊, a few more days and...✂️

ladies have started to take off much more this week. I added heavy 16 finish to schedule of nutes. may be adding fire and roots also over next weeks. no huge issues this week, felt pretty dialed in for most part. using grow room glasses ive found i can get decent video of the girls under lights vs having to take them oit find ok lighting and taking a pic. noticed smell coming off the plants this week, its weak right now, but definitely starting to stink! going to top at the 3rd node once they reach 8 inches tall. after day 28, I transferred into 3 gallon fabric pots, which will be their final homes til harvest! (bottom leafs on plant #1 got some spotting, one side was windburn from earlier in grow, the other side I got a few drops of nutrient mixed water on them, and even after wiping away it left spots on leaves, its all good they are going to be removed after topping)

WEEK 5 8/16- Alrighty! Start of week five and all the ladies are in flower and starting to look sexy as hell! Even the Crystal Meth #2 in the SOHUM Living Soil that had a soil ph of 5.2-5.4 and 4.2 ph runoff on a 4 1/2 gallon flush of 7.7 ph water is doing well! I checked the ph on her soil this morning and she's at 6.4...PERFECT! I gave all the girls a drink of de-chlorinated water in the amount of 2 1/2g with 1 tsp CalMag+ added and ph'd to 6.9 split evenly between them. 8/17- Day 30- The girls are all really growing like crazy filling out their 10g fabric pots. I went through all of them today and, using the green horticultural wire LST'd the crap out of everyone! I know, I know....LST on Day 30??? I've LST'd this late before and had really good results so giving it a go this run. Gave all the girls a small drink as they were moist 2" down using 2 1/2g de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.8 @ 75 deg. After I LST'd all the girls, I selectively tucked shade leaves and defoliated a couple here and there and also removed all the shitty little undergrowth down low on the main stalks. Can't believe the FastBuds Crystal Meth #2 came back from the edge of oblivion. I checked her medium(SOHUM Living Soil) ph which is still @ 6.4...whew! I think she's gonna do just fine, although not as good as her sister who's an obviously different phenotype. 8/18- Cranked up the HLG 650R's to max today. Now drawing 1300w at the wall-650w each and raised both lights to 42" high which is giving 800-1100 umols depending on what place on the canopy you check. 8/19- I administered the second dose of live Nematode's with the girls morning watering. I put the Nematodes in 2 1/2 gallons of de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.8 @ 74 deg. and split it evenly between all eight pots. I tightened up the LST on all the girls to keep spreading them out and getting better light penetration into the lower canopy. 8/20- I started a batch of Compost Tea this morning- 4 cups worm castings, 1 cup of Alfalfa Meal, 1 cup Kelp Meal, 2 tbsp Bat Guano into 4 1/2 gallons of de-chlorinated water with a 6.9ph in which I added 5 tbsp of unsulphured molasses as a catalyst for the microbes. I'll brew this for 48 hours. The ladies all were moist enough that I felt safe skipping the water for today, I'll give them a light watering tomorrow, then a heavy feed with the compost tea. I went through and tucked the heck out of leaves blocking bud sites from light (this is a chore as the girls are getting BUSHY as hell!) and removed a few scattered fan leaves that refused to be tucked and were really blocking light into the lower canopy....can't be having that, need the LIGHT! 8/21- Ladies were all looking very perky this morning and the FastBuds Crystal Meth and Purple Lemonade are both getting beautiful purple shades to them especially the FastBuds Crystal Meth #1 in Natures Living Soil Autoflower Concentrate, she's absolutely on FIRE although her node spacing is very wide. The #2 Crystal Meth in SOHUM that had the ph issue with her medium seems to have recovered after I flushed the shit out of her. She's behind her sister and definitely has a different structure than the #1 phenotype. The Purple Lemonade #1 & #2 are both flowering with #2 looking way better. The #1 Purple Lemonade has some thick kushy leaves and she's a short little biatch, in contrast to the #2 which is tall and lanky with wider node spacing. The #2 Purple Lemonade is having a little issue apparently with the nitrogen level in the medium as she's getting 'claw tips' on several of her leaves and judging by her dark green coloration, she's nitrogen rich right now. I'll keep an eye on her but don't think it's a big issue at this moment in time. The Seedsman Gelato OG in Natures Living Soil Autoflower Concentrate is getting bushy and has filled out the 10 gallon fabric pot. She's got a ton of bud sites and it's a struggle training to keep all the sites exposed to light. The #2 Gelato OG in SOHUM is doing about the same as her sister but she's not quite as tall. The Seedsman Zkittles #1 slowed down on her stretch and just decided to get bushy instead! She's still in pre-flower but is very healthy and will be getting it on very soon! Her 'Sin Twisters' Zkittles #2 & #3 are beautiful and in flower. The Zkittles 'twins' were previously the shortest plants in this run but have caught up and are as tall as the Zkittles #1 @ 14". 8/22- End of Week 4! The girls got Compost Tea ( 8.1 ph, 840 ppm and 1636 EC @ 78 deg.) for breakfast this morning along with a top dress on the six ladies growing in Natures Living Soil Autoflower Concentrate / Fox Farms Happy Frog mix. The two SOHUM pots with the Seedsman Gelato OG #2 and FastBuds Crystal Meth #2 got 4 tbsp of 2-8-4 slow release dry amendments by Down To Earth top dressed and worked in by hand. I gave them each 1/2 gallon of Compost Tea after top dressing to help water in the nutrients. I went through all the girls and tucked and gently spread their branches to continue to train them as they get ready to really start flowering. The FastBuds girls are getting MORE colorful each and every day and I can't wait to open the tent each morning to see them....BEAUTIFUL!!!

This girl was drinking a lot slower than the others I’m guessing she’s cooler in that corner at the base but either way growth was slower into bloom but now she has shot to an impressive 22-23” levelling out the canopy at the back! Can’t wait to see how these flowers form!

Didn't Pay to much attention to em this week😅 Deu to a shopping Spree😉 Got a new light and tent this week 😁 Light: Geeklight Geekbeast pro 630w Tent: Budbox pro xl 120x120 Expecting a lot from this upgrade stay tuned😉

They have really taken off in the last 48hrs.

1 or 2 weeks til harvest

? Blueberry Muffin – Pheno B Week 5 | Letting the Plant Choose Her Own Pace One of the reasons I love growing multiple phenotypes from the same seed pack is that they constantly remind me of one important lesson… Genetics always have the final word. Even when plants share the same parents, the same environment, the same nutrition and exactly the same lighting schedule, each one develops its own personality. Blueberry Muffin Pheno B is proving exactly that. While her sister is already comfortably stepping into flowering, this lady is taking her time, continuing to build structure before fully committing to bloom. And honestly… I’m perfectly happy to let her decide. ⸻ 🌱 The 12/12 From Seed Journey For anyone joining this diary for the first time, welcome! This entire project is being grown using the 12/12 from seed method, meaning the lighting schedule has remained at 12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness from the very beginning of the grow. Unlike traditional cultivation, where growers decide exactly when flowering begins by changing the light cycle, this method leaves much of that decision to the plant itself. Each phenotype transitions when its genetics decide the moment is right. That’s exactly what we’re seeing here. Although the first pre-flower signs are beginning to appear, I still consider this another week of vegetative growth. She simply hasn’t committed enough to flowering for me to officially change the diary yet. It’s a perfect example of how two sisters can follow completely different timelines while growing side by side. ⸻ 🌿 Building Structure Before Flowers Rather than rushing her into bloom, this week focused on preparing the strongest possible foundation. Pheno B naturally grows with an extremely compact structure, producing very short internodal spacing and dense foliage. That beautiful compactness comes with one small challenge… Light struggles to reach the interior of the canopy. To help with that, I spent the week using gentle Low Stress Training together with regular leaf tucking to expose developing shoots hidden beneath the large fan leaves. Toward the end of the week I also performed a very light defoliation. Nothing aggressive. Just removing a few carefully selected leaves to improve airflow and allow more light to reach the inner branches. Sometimes less really is more. By the end of the week the results were already becoming visible, with several lower shoots responding by stretching upward and beginning to develop into future flowering branches. Exactly the response I was hoping for. ⸻ 💧 Hand Feeding Continues Unlike her sister, Pheno B remains completely hand-watered. For now I want full control over how she receives her nutrients while continuing to observe how this phenotype develops naturally. Hand watering also allows me to monitor her appetite closely and make adjustments whenever necessary based on her individual needs rather than following the same routine as the AutoPot system. As always, every plant earns its own management strategy. ⸻ 🍽️ Feeding This week’s feeding consisted of the complete Plagron program, including: • Terra Grow – 1.8 ml/L • Terra Bloom – 1.8 ml/L • Pure Zym – 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L • Power Roots – 1 ml/L • Power Buds – 1 ml/L The introduction of Terra Bloom and Power Buds marks another exciting milestone as the plant slowly begins preparing for reproductive growth. Although she’s still spending most of her energy building structure, it’s the perfect moment to begin supporting what’s coming next. Solution parameters remained stable with an EC around 1.78 mS/cm and a pH of approximately 6.02, providing a balanced nutrient profile while keeping the root zone healthy. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment The room continues running under intentionally warm conditions. Day temperatures averaged around 31.1°C, nighttime temperatures remained close to 25°C, relative humidity stayed around 72%, and atmospheric CO₂ measured approximately 693 ppm. Those humidity levels are still intentional. At this stage I’m encouraging vigorous vegetative expansion and allowing the plants to establish as much healthy biomass as possible before gradually reducing humidity later in flowering. It’s all part of preparing for healthier flowers in the weeks ahead. ⸻ 📸 This Week Behind the Lens This week’s photographs beautifully capture the personality of Pheno B. She’s noticeably shorter than her sister, yet incredibly dense. The studio side profiles reveal a stocky plant packed with tightly spaced growth sites, while the bird’s-eye photographs highlight just how compact her canopy has become. Several close-up images also document the early effects of leaf tucking and the gentle defoliation, showing new shoots beginning to emerge from areas that were previously hidden beneath large fan leaves. Watching those branches respond over only a few days is one of those quiet victories that makes plant training so rewarding. ⸻ 🔍 Looking Ahead Next week should answer one of the biggest questions of this grow. Will Pheno B finally commit fully to flowering? Or will she continue investing another week into structure before stretching? Either outcome is perfectly welcome. If she continues vegetative growth, I’ll maintain gentle training and keep opening the canopy to encourage even more secondary branching. If flowering officially begins, the focus will shift toward supporting the stretch while maintaining an open, evenly lit canopy. Whatever she decides… I’ll simply help her become the best version of herself. ⸻ 💚 Thank You Thank you to everyone following this journey and taking the time to grow alongside me.

Whether you’re here to learn something new, compare techniques, cheer the plants on, or simply enjoy the journey, I’m genuinely grateful to have you here. Growers Love and see you next week… where we’ll discover whether Blueberry Muffin Pheno B finally decides it’s time to bloom, or keeps reminding us that nature follows its own schedule. 🌱💙

I was going to write something inspirational here, but cant remember. Must be good weed😉

Its day 61 currently, i’ve given her the last feed and will start the flush now, even though she’s discarded most of her leaves already and is using up the remaining nutrients in the remaining leaves on her own. Most of the pisitls have started turning orangey-brown so harvest is right around the corner, and i dont have a loupe for looking at trichomes but i’ll be taking macro pictures using my phone’s camera and will harvest as soon as i start seeing a few turning amber. There isn’t enough detail in the pics to know if the trichomes are transparent or milky, but its easier to see the amber ones, so thats how i’ll proceed. This week’s song is Killing Me Softly by The Fugees, hope yall had a great week.

So this week isnt over yet, i just wanted to say that im pretty certain she is starting to show her sex! I dont have any pictures yet as they are really really really tiny but i think this will be my last week that i give her veg nutes and next feeding will be with tiger bloom and probably still likely big bloom too. I cant wait to show you guys the progress is been so exciting! The branch i accidentally almost took off because i pressed down too hard is doing well it isnt fully healed yet but we have time so im not too worried and none of the leaves are wilting or looking like they are dying so i think and hope it will hold out and be healthy and strong by flowering time so it can hold its weight! P.S. it wouldnt let me post without a picture so heres the first frame for this weeks time lapse before its done for the week! Alright guys week 4 has officially ended and im putting the edited time lapse up for you all to see, week 4 was phenomenal and the growth alone has been starting to get crazy big i cant believe it! So i was 100% correct about earlier in the week and she is currently showing signs of pistils starting to form on some branches so this will mark my last week giving her veg nutes and next feeding cycle will be with some flowering nutes. I decided to defoliate her today to try and get rid of any ugly leaves as well as fan leaves that werent needed. it really spaced out the plant some more for good lighting to penetrate it all hopefully. The branch that i accidentally injured is doing good still healing up i think but i do believe that in time it will be 100% of what i can be given the circumstances. im just happy and it hasnt seemed to stunt the growth of that branch at all either its getting really big. Thanks for all the love and support guys i cant wait to get her to harvest and to be able to say im smoking my own weed after dry and cure! I gave her some Cal-Mag too to help with possible deficiencies later on in the flower cycle but not a ton because i dont want to over do it!

I brougt them outside when the weather Was good enough. Sie stams got mutch more resistent. Will transplant them to soll in a few days. Night temp. is not lower than 7 degree Celsius. Got a little smell when you put your nose very close to the top leaves, but nothing to intensive.

Grew genetically similar for a while, one is going long the other going wide. The one treated with magic sauce is growing rapidly vertically even though the umol range is well within the flowering range. (No need to stretch).
