Lookin good and the plant is pretty much on cruise control

My first week is officially over and I’m so thankful to the people who’ve sent so much help and love my way! If you have any hints for me just shoot them on through a comment or something! All contructive critism is welcome here; after alli, it is my first grow! -FirstTime

Progress and Observations In week 6 of flowering, my plants are displaying significant development. The buds are swelling noticeably, and resin production is increasing, filling the grow area with a rich aroma. Weather Conditions and Plant Health Unfortunately, the weather in Germany has turned to consistent rain over the next five days, which is less than ideal for the final growth phase. To protect the plants, I've moved them into the greenhouse full-time. This controlled environment shields them from adverse weather conditions, ensuring stable conditions for continued growth. Pest Management I'm pleased to report minimal pest issues thus far. Nightly patrols continue to manage the snail population effectively, supported by lettuce leaf traps. There have been no signs of spider mites, aphids, or thrips, providing relief. With the ongoing rainy weather, I remain vigilant against potential snail problems. Low-Stress Training (LST) Update The plants I trained with LST have responded positively and continue to develop well. I did some more LST to maximize light to the colas. The canopy remains even, and the bud sites are receiving ample light, allowing for a slight upward stretch to maximize bud growth during these final weeks of flowering. I try not to cut off any fan leaves because I think they're here for a reason. I like to tug them behind the steam or the side branches. Only if the leaves show significant signs of illness or pest then I remove them. Looking Ahead As we move further into the flowering stage, my focus will be on maintaining optimal conditions to maximize bud development and resin production. I am also diligently monitoring the humidity levels in the greenhouse, as this is crucial for preventing mold growth. The plants are looking promising, and I’m excited to see how they progress in the coming weeks. Update 03.07 What is noticeable is that both untrained plants are entering the full flowering mode faster than the trained ones. Have you had similar experiences? Update 05.07 Today I checked the girls and found the Banana purple punch with the top leaves starting to curl down. After asking the community I found out that everything looks like a starting nitrogen toxicity. But only on that plant. Seems kind of strange that the others having no issues at all despite having the same amount of nutes. I decided to treat the symptoms a once so I flushed with 5l PH water. The first runoff was a little lower (5.5 / EC 1.09) but not really concerning. Afterwards I give the plant the half amount of the tripart flowering scheme (with added CalMag 2 ml/l PH 6.2). Thanks again to AsNoriu and Hashy Stay tuned for updates and like always, feel free to give feedback about things I can improve🍀🥦

I chopped most of her last week and she's dry and In jars right now. I let the bottoms go another week to mature and they actually turned out way better than I expected. I haven't weighed up the final amount yet, but she gave me four 32 oz jars and I hadn't even harvested all of her yet. For reference, most plants I get 1 or 2 jars. Each jar is about 2-3 ounces each. So I probably pulled at minimum a half on off of one plant in the earthbox. I want to keep this plant around so I have trimmed her down and switched the lights to 18/6 now. Time to reveg!

Royal moby is doing amazing, heat wave is hitting but she is not impressed, it's kind of hard to keep the soil moisture right with 33c in the tent but we are going on !

Super Silver Haze (Zamnesia Seeds) – Flower Week 5 ⸻ 🌿 Quick Recap – From Seed to Week 5 Flower • Week 1 Flower: Fast transition—pistils everywhere, healthy roots, compact growth. • Week 2 Flower: Morphology shift in full swing; feeding adjusted with Top Booster and Plagron trio (Power Buds, Sugar Royal, Green Sensation). • Week 3 Flower: Light defoliation to open structure. Plants ~120 cm, hybrid leaf traits, strong root activity. • Week 4 Flower: Bud stacking accelerated, pistils thickening, recipe simplified (soil NPK carrying, boosters fine-tuning). • Week 5 Flower (current): Buds swelling, pistils everywhere, resin heads sparkling. Slight leaf spotting observed—likely Ca/Mg imbalance. Adjusted by reintroducing Aptus All-In-One Liquid for a nutrient push and better balance. ⸻ 🌱 Plant Development Both phenos continue to mirror each other, tight internodes, balanced structure, and lush hybrid leaves. The buds are swelling rapidly, calyxes stacking beautifully, and pistils are thick and lively. The resin layer is already visible, giving a frosty shimmer that promises density and potency in the weeks ahead. A few spots appeared on lower and mid leaves—most likely a calcium/magnesium issue. To counter, we increased nutritional support by bringing Aptus All-In-One Liquid back into the mix, ensuring a complete and balanced NPK profile while keeping boosters steady. ⸻ 💧 Feeding & Nutrition (Week 5) • Aptus Regulator – micronutrient transport, cell wall integrity • Aptus CalMag Boost – raising Ca/Mg levels to address leaf spotting • Aptus All-In-One Liquid – full-spectrum NPK support reintroduced this week • Plagron Power Buds, Sugar Royal, Green Sensation – continuing to enhance flower development, aroma, and resin formation Soil still provides a strong nutritional backbone, but this week’s adjustments help stabilize the balance and support heavy bud development. ⸻ 🌡️ Environmental Conditions • Day Temp: ~29–30°C • Night Temp: ~25°C • Humidity: ~65% • VPD: ~1.3–1.4 kPa • CO₂: ~700 ppm • Watering: ~1.5–2L per plant/day, at ~20% soil dryness • Soil EC: ~2.0 • Light Intensity: 760–780 PPFD across canopy AC installation is still pending, so temps are slightly higher than ideal, but plants remain vigorous and unstressed. ⸻ ✨ Special Focus: Trichomes – Nature’s Treasure Houses At Week 5, trichomes are beginning to form in visible density, and this is a great moment to explore what they are and why they matter. 🔬 What Are Trichomes? Trichomes are microscopic, glandular outgrowths on cannabis flowers and leaves. They are resin factories—producing cannabinoids (THC, CBD, CBG, etc.), terpenes (aromatic oils), and flavonoids (pigments and antioxidants). 🌸 Cannabinoids • THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol): Primary psychoactive compound; euphoric, creative, uplifting. • CBD (Cannabidiol): Non-psychoactive, soothing, anti-inflammatory, balancing. • Others: CBG, CBC, THCV—each contributing unique effects and therapeutic potential. 🌺 Terpenes Aromatic molecules giving cannabis its smell and flavor profile. Examples: • Myrcene: Earthy, musky, sedative qualities • Limonene: Citrus, uplifting, mood-enhancing • Pinene: Piney, sharp, potentially focus-enhancing These terpenes modulate the effects of cannabinoids in the entourage effect. 🎨 Flavonoids Less talked about, but flavonoids contribute to color, taste, and antioxidant activity. They can influence the final bouquet and even the therapeutic properties of the plant. 🌌 Why They Matter Now At Week 5, trichomes are initiating en masse, but they are still clear and immature. As the weeks progress, they’ll cloud, then amber, signaling ripeness. Monitoring trichomes with a loupe is the most reliable way to judge harvest time, not just pistils. ⸻ 🎛️ Gear & Setup • Lighting: Future of Grow Black Series 600W, ThinkGrow ICL-300 LEDs, and Lumatek Zeus Compact Pro 465W—all synced under TrolMaster for environmental control. • Airflow: Dual 6” extraction with carbon filters (TrolMaster Aerofan + Spider Farmer), controlled separately for redundancy. • Monitoring: TrolMaster Tent-X + WCS substrate sensor—tracking EC, moisture, and real-time root zone conditions. ⸻ 🌿 Outlook The girls are in their prime flowering momentum. With nutrients adjusted and trichomes stacking, the coming weeks should bring bulk, aroma, and resin explosion. This is where the legendary Super Silver Haze genetics (Skunk x Northern Lights x Haze) begin to show their pedigree—old-school power, modern stability.

Love the growth thus far

The Permanent Markers are finally taking off! They've at least doubled in height since last week. Of course, they're still really small, but it's cool to see them finally getting going. They look healthy and are developing nicely. Well, another year has come and gone. Yesterday was New Year's Eve, and I want to wish all of you a happy and healthy 2025. May this year bring you all the things you've been wishing for. Let's make this the best year yet!

Ok week 6. So putting my eyes to the plants and found out that, we have 1 confirmed female. I named her "Shiori"! There is one unknown sexed plant and three (mostly) confirmed males. Shiori was the one I wanted to be female due to her indica leaning leaves. I will take some cuts of Shiori before I flip. Sunday update... I decided to put these plants in the flower tent with their sister (Falda) who will be harvested in a few weeks. Depending on which male shows some vigor, I might keep his pollen to possibly create f2's to pollinate three females (Bratz, Falda and Shiori) Wish I could document all the grows I have going on right now but it's alot. Sunday update: I decided to move the five plants into one of my flower tents. Shiori was cut for clones (4), the rest weren't cloned because of assumptions of 3 males and 1 unknown still. Another AC infinity oscillating fan was added to the tent they are in. More updates soon.

Hi everyone, Here’s the update for week 6 along with a video. Soil(Organic grow) Day 35~42 She becomes alot bushy and start showing pre flowers this week.Continue LST and all going well.I just tuck-in the fan leaves under the strings.The space become so tight.You can see in my video.Most of the bud sides are visible to light.Only some are covered by fan leaves.So I am still thinking about defoliation.May I know your opinion about defoliation auto? Here’s my nutrient solution giving for this week. Soil RO water EM leaf solution- 1ml/L Egg shell with vinegar- 0.5ml/L Epsom salt- 1tsp/gal pH- 6.1 ppm-200 Run off pH- 7.0 ppm- 1300 Coco(Synthetic grow) Day 35~42 Huuuuuh... Coco made my grow so difficult.I made alot of rotation this week.Coco #1 is now fully recovered in 1 gallon pot and Coco#2 seedling is not well.I transplant Coco #1 into 10 gallon final pot again.So it’s like 1gallon soil to 10gallon Coco.I don’t know why she can’t thrive directly in Coco/perlite mixed.She needs a bit touch of soil to recover.From now on golden days are coming.I Hope so.She will be introduced to my ScrOG soon as you can see in my video.Here’s my nutrient solution giving after transplanting. Coco RO water G/M/B- 0.5ml/L B52- 0.5ml/L Voodoo juice- 0.5ml/L Cal-Mag Plus- 0.5ml/L pH- 6.2 ppm- 250 Run off pH- 6.8 ppm- 750 Stay tune guys.. Happying growing to you all... ✌️ 🇲🇲

Het is 23 oktober, dag 95 en de oogsttijd is aangebroken, heb haar omgehakt. Dit was een plezierige plant om te kweken, nogmaal bedankt Weedseedsexpress : 1:🏼 Zijtakken schoten de lucht in en hebben zich gevuld met dikke toppen bomvol THC. Mooi hoe de onderste tak het hoogst werd van allemaal. Ook de hoofdtop is dikker dan ik had verwacht, echt prachtig! Ik begrijp nu waarom ze Gorilla Glue is genoemd, want ze plakt behoorlijk, ik heb mijn handen grondig moeten schrobben. De geur is niet zwaar overheersend, maar normaal. Ze ruikt heerlijk limoenachtig. Als ze goed gedroogd is zal ik deze dagboek verder bewerken en de smaak en effect geven. Ik ben zeer benieuwd. Iedereen bedankt voor het volgen en liken. 6 november: de toppen zijn zo goed als droog en heb zojuist een joint gerookt. De smaak is apart , fruitig tropisch, kan de smaak niet echt plaatsen, maar wel lekker👌🏼 Ben ook zeer stoned en heb nu geen zin om van de bank af te komen😁, toch geeft het geen space effect maar meer een vrolijk effect waar je veel van gaat praten 🤭 85 gram is niet slecht en boven mijn verwachtingen. Ik heb nu alles in wreckpotten gedaan om te curen. Al met al is deze strain zeker aan te bevelen, echt een topwietje💪🏽 Much love growbuddies ❤️

For a small plant with small buds there seems to be quite a lot. I will update when dry

💪💪

Harvested and smoked... runtz was the favorite of all but this one i the top 1 for insomnia people who deal with it should give this strain a try it's great late evening smoke.. you feel like you're on a cloud.... I got a more of a musky earthy og with very little lemon kick to it but I don't mind. 162 left in the bag to cure rest in the jar for myself to enjoy for now. The redness in the stems went away with the cure I belive... some still have it tho lightly.

She's crushing iit🇬🇧💯👍👀👀👀tbc

WEEK IN 🌸 TOOK OUT MOST INTERNODES GROWTH IN VEG & LEFT ONLY TOP GROWTH!! HOPEFUL MY PLANS WORKS OUT WITH THESE RUNTZ DURING THE STRECH‼️🙏🏿#runtzf1durbgushers 🎩🌈🍬

This week as went well, plants are starting to bulk up and get comfortable in their new pots. Next week or the week after next might be the time to transplant them into their forever home pots, then flip to flower after 3 weeks of them growing into their new space. They have been getting a bit to much N with the Gaia Green 4-4-4 mix, I keep forgetting how much it gives them and that I need to mix it with the power bloom 2-8-4 in 25-30/75-70 or 50/50 ratios. I have extra Gaia Green Soluble seaweed extract to make up the missing K in the ratio mixes. Still mixing the PH a bit lower at 6.0 with the citric and malic acid tests, plants are going well with them, tested a bit of runoff with the one smaller plant and was getting aorund 7.5, EC still sky high so wont need to feed for a while now but they are not burning and that's a good thing. they seem to be tolerating the Potassium Silicate as well, I don't like how much it alters the PH but till I get in some ground wollastonite. Sames extras as any other week with the addition of some magnesium, rest as follows, yucca extract, silicon, potassium seaweed extract, microbes, fulvic acid, Clones are doing ok, when I took the photo of them this week they looked good and then 10 min outside of their humidity dome they looked like shit and all withered. Some of them are showing signs of putting on roots with little white specs on the stalk coming through. Will have to place them in some potting medium soon and see if they take off. And if they do I will have some to give away to whoever wants them in my friend group. I also have that one smaller plant that was delayed by a week or so thats also extra. Got to find a loving home for it, my other grow buddies don't have anything started ATM and don't want to start till later in the year. :( Pepper update! some of the peppers are living the high DLI of the lights and some of them are not... the purple jigsaw ones seems to be getting a bit burnt under the lighting. They all will be taken out soon enough. I should look at transplanting them into other pots soon and they likely root bound. Can set up something in my room with an old SF1000 I got or the Sunblaster 18" 6500k lights that I used to grow with. When I touch the leaves of the goronong and them smell my finger they have a lot of hot pepper aroma coming off of them. I think these peppers are going to be quite spicy when they are all done. The Fatalii peppers are the same and I know they are spicy AF but their smell is a bit more bright and less earthy as the goronong still pungent all over. The Fatalii are also a bit smaller, could be the older seed just is not as vibrant as new seed. Should be fine once they are outside always a good producer for me. Going to make infused salt with them and give that out as gifts to my friends. Big shoutout to Medic Grow for sponsoring the lighting in my tent, They have provided me with 2x Mini Sun 2's in the 240w configuration, They use the v1 growing spectrum that is a all purpose seed to harvest spectrum so their is no hassle of switching it mid grow.
