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🎉

Hello, long time, no grow. I’m trilled to start on a new grow project, i’m away from growing a long time, but my love for ot was always present, i miss it a lot so i have got a few strains from Fastbuds to test and come back with a minimal setup. I have got the Fastberry, Bluedream, and the 1:20 cbd, they have sent in the Banana Purple punch Ok, so what is a minimal setup? For this grow i have choose to grow in my balcony, it is fairly big and i gave good sunlight, we are in summer now, so temps are high, swinging a lot. It is raining often as well so I did not need to water much. For the nutrients i will go organic i think, in my substrate i have about 30% warm castings, so i’m good for till mid grow length +-, i might add a bit of nutrients in 30 days mark. The objective of this experiment is to use as little as possible, 360 degrees. For the germination process i have used a mixed process method, that i have learned from Fastbuds and i have loved it, 24h in a glass of filtered water, paper towel for about 24h -48h and then the Floraflex gremination pellets, i have tested on the jiffy and worked fine as well. Cool about this method, if you are more on the anxious side or like to control more the process this is the way, you can follow the hole process and see the development in parts. I will add images later on, for this breakdown. Well that is it, lets hope for a cool, safe journey for this girls.

Growing really well, still think this one will be my heaviest yielding! She’s covered in a thick resin and continues to push pistils out, this one may have the density I’ve been trying to get. I think I’ve finally figured this strain out, looking forward to the bud off this girl. The bud that was pollinated is beginning to yellow, I will likely go ahead and snip that off towards the end of the week when the seed pods begin to open but before the seeds actually drop. Some of the other plants that had buds that were pollinated have already been harvested for the seeds. I left the remainder of the plants to finish up.

Welcome to my GranDaddyPurple Auto Diary sponsored by MSNL & Spider-Farmer. Flower Days 1-14 Days 43-56 weeks 7-8. Plant moved nicely along pre flower. Didn't gain much height stands just shy of 53cm. Buds are gaining weight. Withstanding the High Temp. Done a light defoliation No mad foxtailing yet. But, as she moves out of ripening I've no doubt she'll start to push out some tails. She did pick up what was going to be a lovely fade. But, sadly I messed up somewhere and she lost her pigment of her purple. So, just gonna have to stick with a lovely chunky colorless monkey. Her buds are lovely and fruity, stinks of pungent berries. Really happy with this Auto. I like to try all breeders autos. And I'm happy to say. I see a lot of MSNL auto in my future. Hopefully next time. I'll be more on my game, and grab an purple pheno for my troubles. But, I doubt I'll have such hard environment to grow in. With co2, things can turn on their head with a lighting session. SE5000 sponsored by SPIDER-FARMER. Light is very impressive giving me some amazing bud. Only been ran at 80% also. As I'm running lots of fems in early development. So, 80% is the max I'll reach for now with this powerhouse of a 480w full spectrum beast. Also running 2 other strains from this breeder that are steaming along. Check them out. Thanks to all who stopped by and viewed, or liked & commented. Much appreciated. Look forward to seen your work. Either way thanks for stopping by.

She is much prettier than she was a week ago :) I remembered that I have my first grow light, which is more compact and it will give me more space, so I changed my light, now the girl's side branches get light too:) I add a lot of video memes, because I really want to win Iphone16 pro ;) and those who don't take risks don't drink champagne:) good luck to everyone.

Well it was another great week for the Super Silver Haze sisters!! Day 28 for them and they are growing very well👌They have all grown about an inch in height in the last week. Plant #1 has a slight earthy/ fruity smell starting to come out. Her bud sites are slowly starting to fill in nicely. Plant #2 has really filled in and is just a very quick growing pheno. It had the onset of flowering very quick and has just kept going at the same rate since🙌 Only thing about that is she is using way more Phosphorous than the other 2 plants and was starting to show the beginning of a deficiency, luckily It was caught quick and is not affected any of the top new growth or bud site areas. So now she is getting her own nutrient solution with a slightly higher amount of phosphorous. She also has a Strawberry fruity like smell, it is very unique! Plant #3 Is doing great👍 She doesn't have to much of a smell yet, but it does have a hint of a skunky/fruity smell to it according to what my nose is telling me😂 Overall they are growing fantastic with the exception of the slight P deficiency that showed up on Plant #2, Like I stated earlier I believe it is due in part to how fast she is growing and me not thinking to add a little more knowing she was growing faster than the other plants, combined with her position in the tent. Where she is kinda in the overlap of the 1000w HPS lights even though the light is strongest directly under them. Where I have 2 running in a 5'x10' area. So the overlap of them into each other creates quite an even light coverage, most of the time. but sometimes can be stronger than directly under the light depending on the spacing of the hoods/reflectors and type of hoods/reflectors, and that is what was happening here. They where fairly close together so the edge of their light dispersion was reaching almost to the center of the other light creating a pretty intense spot of light in the overlap. So I moved the lights just a little further apart, but did not want to go to far because the plant was loving that much light. and really only wanted to reduce it to help it bounce back from the slight P deficiency, since the more light the more photosynthesis the more Phosphorous😊 Anyways Thanks for stopping by to check things out!!👊 Happy Growing an Plentiful Harvests to All!!🙏

bei der ganzen veranstaltung wollte ich ja rausfinden ob man auf 100% seramis anbauen kann. ja kann man aber es ist erschwerlich. im grunde ist es eine hydroanbauweise bei der man alles an nährstoffen hinzufügen muss. weil seramis wasser gar nicht so gut speichert wie angenommen hab ich zum ende noch eine tröpfchenbewässerung installiert die jede stunde für 30sec angeht. das hat erstaunlich gut geklappt. postiv hervorzuheben ist das man keine probleme mit trauermücken hat. vielleicht probiere ich nächstes mal halb seramis halb coco.

Well well well thanks to all of you for reading my diary and supporting that project 😎 This was the longest run I've been through for a while, but it was worth it. I was rewarded with 168g of top shelf quality buds, while she was under a 110W SMD (LM301B) board. Only 110W... I was amazed by these boards by InvisibleSunLed, and very happy of my investment. Samsung diodes are game-changers and it will get even better in a near future, what an exciting time for us modern growers! If you plan to buy some SMD boards, make sure the driver is dimmable, the light intensity can be so strong at its maximum, you could burn your plants (or your eyes). I started the board at 50% (~55W) and slowly increased the wattage as I was seeing a happy plant enjoying her indoor sun. I was also very surprised by the cheap IKEA bulbs, some ingeneers at IKEA must be growing pot, these tiny things do really work! I wouldn't try to flower anything with these, but it was perfect for the first weeks of my THC-Bomb. I made some canna-butter using the sugar leaves from the trim and some decarboxylated buds, and cooked a big cake. That s*** was strong as hell, I was unable to do anything for 24 hours 😭 If you're not used to edibles, start with small pieces rather than a big cake, I learned it the hard way 😜 I will now work on gaining knowledge about nutrient absorption in coco, improving my photo skills (must get a new camera..), and I will also look for a better way to produce timelapses. Shout-out to the brands who made this possible: 🇬🇧 Bomb Seeds (breeder) 🇬🇧 Invisible Sun Led (lights) 🇺🇸 Greenleaf Nutrients (nutrients) 🇬🇧 Air-Pot (pots) 🇸🇪 IKEA 😂 (lights) I enjoyed sharing this experience with you, stay tuned for some other grow report, and happy growing to all 👊

First I want to thank everyone who participated in last week's call for help especially GrowingGrannie and gottagrowsometime. I made some changes starting with the distance of the LED, I did a defoliation reduced the Bio-Grow kept the Top Max and the Bio-Bloom added Calmag, Pandora powder mycoterra. BAC Frooting Power and ashes. The downside I have is the humidity which stays at 70% even with the dehumidifier. 0,2 Bio-Grow 0,4 Top Max 0,4 Bio-Bloom 1,4 Calmag 1.5 gr Pandora Powder MYCOTERRA 3 gr de BAC Frooting Power 5 Tablespoons of ash See you next week

1/29/24 - Beginning of week. Looked good, was planning on letting it go another week but within a day the top leaves started turning yellow all over and I started seeing amber, just a few but spread out all over the plant, so last minute decision to harvest on 1/31/24.

So I used the paper towel germination method. Once the taproot sprouted. I directly planted her into a 20l plastic pot with the above medium. She gets feed once dry. I keep the humidity quite high as at the stage the babies need warmth. I fed her some AgriSil to boost root development. Now it's just keeping the temperature in check until the first sign of the true leafs 🍃 😉

Week 21 Daylight 12h20 - 7h45/20h05 Unstable weather, alternating heavy rain and wind quasi every days and sunny afternoons. Moderate temperatures around 14°C min / 23°C max. Plants are safe in the veranda; the sun is lower on the horizon now and the angle of the light is now perfect for a good finish. I need to test the humidity level in the room but it seems reasonable. No signs of diseases or moisture. Last weeks were hard with multiple aggressions: plants are like War Veterans with some damage and scars. The flowering process look not affected by this episode and harvest is approaching. Brake Pad Breath: almost ready. Pistils are rusty colored, buds are thick and dense, firm and sticky. Subtle fruity aroma: tonic and stimulating. Most advanced plant: will be the first harvested soon. 2L watering / 2 days flowering booster finish + water flawless finish + water Flash Back #2: ending the flowering cycle and starting maturation. Last plant infested by insects, may be the plant is reacting by accelerating the flowering: buds are not so dense compare with the previous plant. Pretty spicy smell and good resin production. flowering booster finish + water flawless finish + water GMO x Zombie Kush: starting the last flowering stage. Recovering good and was less injured by caterpillar than the others. Pistils are long and the flowers will enlarge soon: need almost 3 or 4 weeks to be ready. Grower master flo + bud XL enzyme + pk 13/14 Royal Moby is tall and late flowering but seems producing lot of flower. With the stress the plant become hermaphroditic, I discovered some bag of males flowers. I hope there is no pollination between the other plants. Grower master flo + bud XL enzyme + pk 13/14

Las plantas ya se ven mejor, han crecido bastante bien, aunque la Runtz#1 parece ir peor
