D 115 05/09 Still checking the trichomes, a few days for harvesting

Hello all! I am finally back online and so here is a proper update for the Queen! Citronella has suffered terribly during the house move and following weeks, a few days ago I took her lower third off and defoliated and removed underdeveloped nodes. I dried the popcorn I took off during this process and got 12g (dry). The rest I am leaving on her and hoping and praying those buds swell. The smell is absolutely the greatest thing ever, she is stunningly pungent - even the quick dried popcorn is really beautiful to smoke - so whatever I get from her, whatever little it will be, I will certainly enjoy. Anyway she is now being taken care of a bit more regularly and properly and moving forward until harvest I expect this to continue. Day 109: Fertigated 10l Day 111: The queen is maturing, but I am not sure her buds are going to get much fatter at this point. She is already struggling to hold them up, they must be really dense if they are so heavy this small. I am really at a disappointed stage with this grow, and I must do better next time I grow this strain. I am not impressed with this LED light, I think I need to grow a full tent under my better light and see how they do. Anyway she is trundling along and I don't think too far from the inevitably disappointing harvest.

Plants keep growing good, without excess or nutrient fault. So happy They have doubled the size. +17 cm. As i commented before i'm struggling with the height of the tent, I hope they stop but I don't think so I have switch ON the flowering leds to invite them to start flowering. Also is the first auto strain that vegs for 34 days and there aren't signs of preflowering. The vendor states that the complete life is between 70 and 80 days... I don't care about time but yes about space. Thinking in setup a scrog mess, but i don't know. day 36 - I see some preflowering signs at one plant. Ads you can see in the pictures the higher was nearly touching the leds and I dind't had margin to move it upper, so i have lowered the base around 10-15 cm and now they have some space to go bigger at flowering. I have taken advantage of the occasion to take out all the plants and take some photos out of the closet, hope you like it. In 2 days more i will do a root cleaning with specific solution and will change all the water for preflowering doses Also the smaller one was damaged during this process, i hope she recover fast. I will apply some wound paste on that to avoid more stress; you can see too that the smaller one is not straight due to bigger one blocking the light. With lowering the basethere is a humidity reduction of around 10%

Well today is 20 I topped her 2 days ago and as you can tell this girl is very happy very healthy and she is rocking and rolling.. she's in a 1 gallon for now and a week or two I'm going to transplant her into a larger pot maybe a 3 gallon maybe a four we'll see but for this girl I am not using organics I'm going back to my old formula and I'm expecting or hoping at least to pull a half pound off of this girl because this is a strain I really want a decent amount of... A huge thank you too Zamnesia Seeds for the opportunity to showcase their genetics which so far have been awesome.. as you can see this is the plant from a one seed pop, I didn't pop three seeds and pick the best plant so I'm very pleased with the results thus far.. this girl just wants to grow and grow and grow.. I highly recommend you guys checking out Zamnesia Seeds as they have everything from seeds to smoke shop needs they even have THC a flower of some of the strains they sell .. they even have kratom to mushroom gummies to rolling papers to absolutely anything you can think of large selection of bongs and the best part is they have an amazing loyalty program called the Tribe .. are definitely worth three or four minutes of your time to check them out for yourself.. this girl's doing amazing just like the watermelon candy autoflower that I'm growing by them.. so far I'm very impressed with their genetics.. hope everyone is doing good and I hope everyone's girls are doing as good as this one.. God bless and happy growing ✌️😎 https://www.zamnesia.com/us/

This weeks update is just basically a photo/video dump! At the start of the week I did some lst and a tiny bit of defoliating and the growth just seemed to burst, I noticed they seemed to began to flower! So I went ahead and introduced the net to the set up and the I’m stoked with the way they filled this tent right out!! These cream manderin are truly fast growing buds. I also started adding Big Buds Liquid to the feeding schedule and so far, so good. At this point I’ll just be uploading photos every Tuesday/Wednesday 🤙🏻🤙🏻

Testing for Connoisseur genetics Outback haze #1 7th March 2022 Welcome to week 23 😀 Both of these ladies are looking fantastic as they progress into the blooming stage 💪 Absolute monster on the left is my favourite of the two but the other isn't too bad either . Neither have needed any feeds with the soil providing plenty of nutrition at this stage. 100% sativa's or in this case haze are fairly low maintenence when it comes to feeding . chuck in some manure or something ( I am using guano ) and they will happily grow along nicely . Did you know that Connoisseur genetics are looking for new testers for their newest strains?? to be considered you just need to have had a few diaries with harvests Thanks once again for stopping by 👍 *****Major Update 10th March ***** Plant two developed ball sacks along with her pistils so unfortunately I had to pull her out and destroy the plant. I know some people might think I could have tried removing the sacs and giving the plant a chance . But I am trying to make myself some F1 hybrids and do not want any Hermies anywhere near my females . Now because this strain has Thai genetics there is always that chance they throw "nanners" but usually later in flower so for this one to show itself right on the start of flowering is enough for me to pull it , burn it with fire . Or in this case I'm gonna let the sun solarise it and then it'll be mulched with other plant materials from my garden.

La dernière semaine des "La Rica auto CBD 1:1", que j'ai fait pousser dans le but de soigner ma maman qui souffre de douleur comme la sciatique et autres douleurs liés à sont âge... petite remarque au sujet de "La Rica" comme l'effet on pensent que: "l'effet d'entourage vas faire faire que le cbd vas anulle le high du thc je vais donc la récolté dès que je vois 1% de trichrome ambré pour voir si recolté que les trichrome son laiteux donc quand l'effet psychotrope est au plus haut je perdrai un peu sur le rendement mais j'aurai tenté ma chance, les deux autres plants je vais attendre qu'il y ai +/-20% de tri. ambré pour les passer 48h ds le noir avant (on est le mercredi 28/4 et j'ai mit la Rica #1 et le supercropped dans le noir total dans ma seconde box).. suite a l'harvest :) Le plants de wWidow #1 avait eu un départ très difficile (n'oublions pas que c'est ma première session de growing) et au final c'est ce plants qui fini avec le plus de buds et de trichrome j'en suis très fière. la seconde continue ca flo. de manière assez monstrueuse aussi l'apex ressemble plus a un ballon sauccisse diforme que à autres chose :) mais bien crousti-crémeuse de résine. La puple Queen n'as encore produit que très peux de trichrome jusqu'a maintenant certainement dû a une mauvaise gestion des engrais de ma part mais là je vois bien que le rincage que j'ai effectué il y a plus d'une semaine dessus et l'ajout il y a trois jours de biobizz BLOOM et de cannabio boost accelerator a relancer l'usine comme disent nos amis les américains. Suite au sujet de la Purple donc netre temps vus sont retard par rapport au calendrier de la fiche techniche qui parlait de 50j +/- je suis à 70 jours demain, j'ai donc décidé de la réengraisser une dernière fois avec du boost accelerator du CalMag agent de chez canna. Arrivé là je commence a mieux "lire" mes plants et ainsi pouvoir répondre correctement a leurs besoins j'suis assez impatient de remettre ça pour ne pas commettre les mêmes erreurs et arriver à un résultat encore mieux!

Week 4 (12/12 from seed, veg phase) Quick clarification before we continue: Last week, while putting the reports together, I mixed in a few photos that actually belong to this week. That one’s on me — I went with the flow and didn’t double-check the dates as carefully as I should have. To keep everything clean and accurate, this update resets the timeline properly. From here on, photos and notes will match the correct week so everyone can follow the run clearly and confidently. Thanks for the understanding — now let’s get back to the girls 🌱 Quick recap for newcomers (Week 4 – 12/12 from seed) Where we are • Week 4 of vegetative development • Light schedule: 12/12 from seed • Plants are still fully in veg behavior (no true flower yet) What defines this stage • Structural building phase • Root mass expanding rapidly • Branching patterns being set • Energy focused on framework, not buds What we’re seeing • Excellent vigor • Balanced nutrient uptake • No visible deficiencies or toxicity • Genetics expressing clean morphology ⸻ What to expect this week • Continued vertical and lateral growth • Slightly faster node stacking • Plants preparing hormonally for pre-flower • Leaves staying broad and healthy • Training responses (if any) remaining gentle and controlled What not to expect • No real flower formation yet • No heavy stretch just yet • No need for aggressive defoliation • No panic adjustments — stability is key here Community Note Due to YouTube community guidelines, our educational channel was taken down.

With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

Beginning of week This week I have cut out the Grow nutriets.. I will now double up on the bloom nutrients and have also added a half dose of Kushie Kush bloom booster from Advanced Nutrients. I have always had good results with this bloom booster.. The smell of the nutes itself just smells like it would help make the buds more dank lol.. I dont know how else to explain that lol.. But yeah. Kinda regretting the aggressive defoliation and late LST (including 1 branch that was supercropped) now.. But I'm sure by next week she will be a gorgeous little bush again.. I just wanted the lower branches to get just as much light as the tops.. Still no trichome production.. Another plant that I have flowering only about 5 days ahead has alot of trichomes for such small little nugs.. Still happy with this girlie! End of week.. Some trichomes have now popped up! Not much but SOME.. She has been showing slight signs of nutrient burn.. I think its mostly because I use the second cup to hold the runoff so that she has plenty to drink while im at work. It helps to do a little flush and NOT let it build up in the runoff cup.. Sometimes the PPM of the runoff gets up to 2300 or even 2500 PPM.. Today it was 2800 PPM so I flushed it really good this morning and going to get another good watering (no nutes) before lights out so that she can have that to drink untill the AM.. PPM got down to 1800 after doing the flush thing.. I shpuld be able to make a new batch of nutes tomorrow.. Maybe I'll even back off of some.. I'll figure it out tomorrow... She is one happy and heathy girl, otherwise.. On to the next week!!!...

Nice big fan leaves. I am continuing to open the two branches created after topping and defoliate to get more light onto the perpendicular branches. Just watering, mycorrhizae and microbes as I just transplanted. 12” diameter airpots.

Very saddened by the turn of events, 3 herms, 2 different grow environments, but each tent had another strain growing along with it. No seeds or problems with the Cookies strain… I had no power outages, no light leaks, no schedule changes, and performed relatively little defoliation during flower. To me, this cannot be attributed to stress, as they showed no sign of stress or deficiency’s throughout the grow. Long story short, booooooo.
