The Gelato has responded well to the topping, the new brunches are growing and the main leaves have opened to collect maximum light, it looks a bit like purple lemonade as a vegetative growth.

7/8/25 Starting to look very very nice. Some nice purple flakes on the edges of the sugar leaves with bright hairy orange pistils on nice bulbous shaped buds

Esta cepa es fenomenal, la saqué a exterior en la última semana y media para aumentar sus terpenos y minimizar la degradación con solo 3 horas de luz directa, 7° C noches y días de 15° C ; me recuerda mucho a Critical Bilbo, un aroma dulce, intenso y muchísimas ventajas de parte de la genética: Resistencia a plagas, podas violentas y entrenamientos de cualquier tipo. Fácil de obtener esquejes y mucha producción de resina 🤤💐. Me encanta esta cepa en exteriores pero en interior ha mostrado ser más que apta, sólo al final de su etapa ha mostrado algunas flores macho pero creo que es causa del estrés por las bajas temperaturas en sus últimas 2 semanas. Saludos a todos y muchas gracias por pasar a ver los diarios ☺️

Went on a ski trip didn’t get to upload last week. Flipped Pineapple Express Pheno 3 today so it got 77 days of veg compared to all the others that got 60 days of veg.

RSV11 is growing great. The pest have been eliminated as far as I can tell. I defoliated her top side to open her up more. I will be switching to flowering in a week. She should be hitting maturity at any moment now.

Hello Growmies, As we conclude week 9 with our Epic Buzz trio, our spirits are high and our grow space is thriving. The introduction of an intake fan has been a remarkable success, significantly enhancing our control over the grow room's climate. Though not manipulated by Tent X's advanced automation, this new system has integrated seamlessly, working wonders for humidity regulation and fresh air circulation. The positive impact on the VPD is clearly reflected in the graph, showcasing a stable environment conducive to plant health and vigor. The plants themselves are a testament to this success; they've stretched up nicely, with the canopy becoming denser by the day, promising an abundant harvest. Each Epic Buzz, from #1 to #3, stands lush and robust, with a vivacity that indicates they're on the right track. It seems they're set to make us proud, not just as individual specimens but as a harmonious collection within our carefully curated tent. The precision in our approach continues to be our guiding principle, as evidenced by the meticulous adjustments to our environmental controls, shown in the steady data from our VPD readings. Our hands-on efforts complement the automated systems, creating an ideal balance that our Epic Buzzes are clearly loving. Looking forward, the prospect of the flowering phase fills us with anticipation. With the canopy now in optimal condition, thanks to our strategic planning and the supportive role of the intake fan, we're poised for the next stage of growth. The thriving Epic Buzz plants, along with our proactive measures like the fly trapping, signify that we're not just growing plants—we're cultivating excellence. Stay lifted, Salokin

Letting them dry out before harvest in a few days. Most of the trichomes are getting cloudy.

Going good so far, starting to show some frost. Draining the ac Infinity self watering bases every other day. The grow dots seem to be giving it what it needs. Added the ac Infinity s24 with the Evo 4 in a 3x3 today giving the tent 500 watts. Day 52 she's looking great, nice bud sites forming. I can't believe early on I almost gave up on her because she was so small but she has really turned it up and will be a 4 ounce plant easy.

Hard to grow in my case, but the results are worth it. Nice trichome production, on the buds as well as on the sugar leaves. I didn't expect much quality with all the problem she had but she turned out beautifully. 227g total from 1 plant tested at 24% THC and <2% CBD 3.02g of kief from the trim

These girls are growing amazing. I did some defoliation and lollipopped them this week. Hopefully with more air flow at the canopy level and lollipopping, the tops and main colas can focus all the energy on growing some beautiful flowers. All in all Happy Growing.

Ne Obliviscaris. Humidity Day 40-45%, Night 60-65% Internodes are very close together. was hitting 450umol at seedling level making it absorb more than it can use, reduced to 280-300umol @18 hours as expected vertical growth increased. During the 18 hours of daylight the first 9 is highly saturated in blue, 5000 kelvin, the 9 hours thereafter are closer to 3000 kelvin. Last 9 hours dosed 280nm. Height is too far to cause damage. UVB light is not detected by plants in the same way other wavelength/colours are. UV cannot be measured using umol as it doesn't drive photosynthesis. The plant has tiny little sensors that get set off to even little amounts, dimer salt bridges, the UV decays these salt bridges, which initiate response. You don't need large/long exposure doses for the plant to recognize UV is present. What's an enzyme? Think of it like a multiplier, you can add an enzyme to any particular biological process to vastly increase its proficiency at a particular process. Cannabis plants take blue/violet light and use it to create an enzyme called "photolayse". This allows the plant to repair UV damage done to the plant using a process called excision repair, this repairs the damage at a much much faster rate than it could by itself. Repairing 100% damage. The key is the plant needs time to build a reserve of the repair enzymes before using it. This is replicated in nature as, by midday UV levels peak, the generally cooler mornings allow lifetime to build up. The problem I encountered was dosing with 280nm lights on or 1 hour after the lights were on. Photomorphogenesis, the plant plans for the future of its growth, if the wavelength is not present during growth then how can it plan accordingly? The very presence of UV changes parameters with which the plant will grow, light itself dictates the growth pattern of the plant. Not only that it can dramatically alter the regular terpene profile of a strain in unexpected ways. Gran daddy purple grown using 280nm can triple already high terpene linalool. Linalool is terpene best known for lavender, largely responsible for its beautiful smell. Trouble sleeping you say? Having tried Durban poison from a dispensary and reading about its levels of tetrahydrocannabivarin. I've always wanted to taste the difference UV would make to such an already stand-out strain such as Durban.

My oldest girl had her flush this week and its about time for her to finish up. I will continue the journal for my 2nd oldest so stay tuned!

Week 2 since they suddenly explored in growth. Since I have a very small tent, I just started the LST. Realised some yellow leave. Maybe due to light burn. Turned down power a bit to 40% and height increased to 25cm

Another late week, but... so like I said I add the 300w led (150w)to the room and I think the girl is loving it. I had to raise the HPS up due to the heat, so the HPS is at 17” from the top of the canopy and the LED at 12”. The colour in the room is unbelievable. I can’t wait to see how this GG turns out.

So, sad day friends. I got spider mites and had to throw all my plants out. This is what I think happened: About 2-3 weeks ago I noticed some freckling on the lower leaves. I looked at it and thought it might be a cal/mag issue so I added cal/mag that week and went about my business. I saw it about a week later and it wasn''t getting any better so I added more cal/mag. This continued for about 2-3 weeks until I finally took off a leaf and examined it under my microscope. I saw little bugs crawling everywhere and my stomach just dropped. My fiance did some quick research while I was panic ripping leaves off (see pictures) and she correctly diagnosed it as spider mites. I debated with myself and my close friend and ultimately I decided to throw all the plants in my tent away. I know that there are a lot of people who will say that there are things I could have done to make it to harvest but what it came down to is the people I take care of and personal pride. I consider myself a caregiver and I give away product for free that I am not going to use to my family and close friends. I thought to myself "Would you smoke this?" and when my answer was "ehhh, I don''t know", I thought about how it would feel giving it away and immediately made the decision to destroy them. I take an immense amount of pride in my product and this hobby and if I am not going to stand behind it I would rather just start over. I grow from my heart (shout out to the Grow From Your Heart Podcast!) to help people and make sure my family is not getting unsafe product from sketchy people. To spray pesticides in flower that may hurt people and have little bug carcasses in there just goes against that in every way and is just wrong in my opinion if you are giving it away to others. If you are the only one smoking it then it is one thing to take that risk but not with your patients. I want my medicine to help people, not create or exacerbate health issues. It is also important to note that the mites had moved from my flower tent into my veg space and took over my auto berry as well. Damn things are crafty and fast. So that is why I made the decision to destroy them all after 3 months of res changes, pruning, and manifolding on a slow vegging strain. Feel free to chime in with your opinion but I do not and will not regret my decision. I threw out my new clones, mother plant, and auto berry I had on my veg side as well. Shout out to all the other growers out there that do the right thing by their patients. Caregivers > Cash croppers. For anyone curious, I removed everything from my tent and scrubbed it all with a 20% bleach/water solution. All equipment has been wiped down and stored in the garage away from any organic materials. I will give them until tomorrow (2 days) to air out and dry and then I will wipe it down again with bleach and wait another 2 days. Hopefully that will make sure everything is dead and will not come back next grow. That next grow should start in about a week. It sucks but sometimes it happens and you gotta be ready for it. Lesson learned. Never bring outdoor plants into your indoor garden even if it is after just a day or two. A bunch of people on here and Reddit warned me and I did not listen. Now I have learned the hard way and it feels like when your parents "told you so" haha. Thanks to everyone who stopped by along the way. Stay tuned for a new grow coming soon. It is going to be some cool new limited edition Mephisto Illuminautos. I am pretty excited. Good luck out there and always grow from your heart folks. -Grim

Well I've had a few problems along my first grow but thankfully the WW being a tough strain I made it work and I'm very happy with my outcome and I'll be doing a few things differently for sure, for a start I've changed my pots to new 13 ltr pots and can't wait to see what happens so that's one of many things I'm changing Looking forward to sharing with you all soon my new diary and love to grow 🌱✌️

Hola a todo el mundo!! Espero que hayan empezado bien el 2026😃🙌. Con respecto a esta Gorilla Cookies, les cuento que esta semana la he trasplantado a una maceta de 20 litros , realice una defoliacion. La he regado con top veg 2ml x litro de agua, le añadi también 1ml x litro de agua de top bloom. Esta semana la temperatura ha llegado a 39 grados. Pero ya esta semana las máximas no superaran los 28 grados( espero que las plantas no se estreseen). También he doblado algunas ramas para que se estiren más hacia los laterales y no tanto para arriba. Creo que no me he olvidado de nada. Buen año para todos y que cultiven los mejores cogollos,ese es mi deseo. Hasta la próxima semana colegas!.

Hello, my amazing green-thumbed friends! Welcome to the Week 1 flower report for our beloved P.C.R.s. The transition from veg to flower is a magical time, and our plants are already showing signs of their future glory. Let’s dive into the exciting details of this week! Entering the Flower Stage Our P.C.R.s have officially entered the flowering stage, and the transformation is already visible. The stretch has begun, and you can see the plants reaching up, preparing to produce those beautiful buds we’re all waiting for. This stage is all about supporting their growth and ensuring they have everything they need to thrive. NutriSpray Magic This week, we’ve been diligently spraying Aptus Holland NutriSpray, and the results are phenomenal. NutriSpray is like a spa treatment for our plants, providing essential micronutrients directly to the leaves. It helps with nutrient uptake, reduces stress, and boosts overall plant health. Our P.C.R.s are absolutely loving it, standing tall and proud with their leaves praying to the light. Nutrient Transition With the start of the flowering stage, we’ve made some important adjustments to our nutrient regimen. We’ve stopped using StartBooster and replaced it with TopBooster, which promotes flowering and bud formation. Additionally, we’ve introduced P-Boost, a phosphorus booster that enhances root development and flower production. TopBooster: Encourages larger and more abundant flowers. P-Boost: Provides essential phosphorus for robust root and flower development. NutriSpray: Continues to support overall plant health and stress reduction. Optimal Conditions Maintaining the perfect environment is crucial as we move into the flowering stage. Our TDS is now at 360, with a pH of 5.9 and a temperature of 21°C for watering. These conditions are optimal for nutrient uptake and overall plant health, ensuring our P.C.R.s have everything they need to produce those beautiful, resinous buds. Care and Attention Paying close attention to our plants during this stage is key. Regularly inspecting for any signs of stress or nutrient deficiencies and adjusting care as needed ensures our plants stay happy and healthy. The love and care we put into this process are reflected in the vibrant health of our plants. In Conclusion Week 1 of flowering has been all about setting the stage for a bountiful harvest. With the help of Aptus Holland NutriSpray, TopBooster, and P-Boost, along with our careful attention, our P.C.R.s are off to a fantastic start. The excitement is building, and I can’t wait to see how they develop in the coming weeks. Shout Outs A huge shout out to @aptusholland, our main sponsor, for their incredible products that keep our plants thriving. Another big thank you to @artgenetix for creating the phenomenal P.C.R. strain. And to the wonderful community at Grow Diaries and all our followers, your support and enthusiasm keep us going.
