Marijuana cultivation, like any agricultural endeavor, involves various techniques to optimize growth, yield, and potency of the plant. This is the week to make it happen! One such advanced technique is High-Stress Training (HST). HST is employed to control the growth pattern of the marijuana plant, making it more bushy rather than tall. This is beneficial for indoor growers with limited vertical space. Moreover, HST exposes more of the plant's foliage to light, which can lead to enhanced photosynthesis. This results in a plant that can produce more buds, which are denser and more potent. Given that light is a primary energy source for plants, maximizing light exposure can drastically improve the overall quality and quantity of the harvest. Topping is a specific form of HST that involves cutting off the main stem's topmost growth. This method forces the plant to divert its energy and nutrients to the lower branches, promoting the development of multiple main colas instead of a single dominant one. By encouraging a more even canopy, topping ensures that light is distributed more uniformly across the plant. This reduces the chances of having underdeveloped buds at the lower sections of the plant due to light deprivation. Topping also curtails the plant's height, making it more manageable, especially for indoor growers with limited space. HST and topping are integral for modern marijuana growers seeking to enhance their yields. These techniques address the spatial constraints faced by many growers and ensure that the marijuana plant receives optimal light exposure. The end goal of these methodologies is to increase yield and potency, and when done correctly, they can transform a mediocre harvest into a bountiful one. Cultivators who invest time in understanding and implementing these techniques stand to benefit significantly from their marijuana crops.

------------------------------------ ~SEEDSMAN PEYOTE GORILLA~ ------------------------------------ Peyote Gorilla is a cross of Gorilla Glue #4 (Chem Sister x Chocolate Diesel) and Peyote Purple, a colorful phenotype of Bubba Kush. The potent, medicinal effect of the Gorilla meets the stimulating and uplifting high of the Peyote Purple. With a flowering time of around 70 days Peyote Gorilla has a typically Indica structure, medium-sized with large, broad leaves. Yields are exceptionally good; indoors growers can expect to yield between 500 - 650 gr/m2 while outdoors as much as 1500 gr/m2 can be realized. Resin levels are very high and this means that it is very suitable for making extracts and concentrates with. This strain's scent is sour with lemon, petrol, earthy and woody notes and these properties are reflected back in the taste. THC production is very high at between 22 - 26% with CBD at just 1%. The effect is a very potent, uplifting high which gradually evolves into a physically relaxing state that will be almost certain to ease any aches and pains. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ -Strain Characteristics- BREEDER/BRAND: Seedsman PRODUCT TYPE: Seeds THC GENETICS: Gorilla Glue #4 (Chem Sister x Chocolate Diesel) x Peyote Purple (Bubba Kush purple pheno) VARIETY: Mostly Indica FLOWERING TYPE: Photoperiod SEX: Feminised THC CONTENT: 22 - 26% CBD CONTENT: 1% YIELD: Indoor: 450-600 g/m2; Outdoor: 1500 gr/plant PLANT HEIGHT: 80-160 cm GROWS: Indoors, Outdoors FLOWERING TIME: 70 days HARVEST MONTH: September MEDICAL CONDITIONS: Fatigue, Insomnia, Pain, Stress TASTE / FLAVOR: Berry, Earthy, Fruity, Petrol, Sweet EFFECT: Euphoric, Powerful, Relaxing, Uplifting _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ THE SETUP: ~Planted into Jiffy Peat Pellets that were hydrated with de-chlorinated water with SuperThrive added then ph'd to 6.0 @ 80℉ ~Grown 100% organic in 10g fabric pots with Mother Earth 70/30 Coco/Perlite medium amended with 2tbs/g of Down To Earth 4-4-4 / 2 cups/g of Earthworm Castings / 1tbs/g of Dr. Earth Flower Girl 3-9-4, 1tbs/g of Dr. Earth Bat Guano, 3/4 cup of Down To Earth Azomite and 1 tsp/g Down To Earth Fish Bone Meal. ~24hr light cycle during Germination / 19/5 light cycle for Vegetation and 12/12 for Flower ~Straight water ph'd @ 6.2-6.8 when needed and weekly Compost Tea's. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates:9/20- 💥BOOM!💥 Week Six of flower is here and my girl's in high gear, stacking her flowers and pumping out trichomes!

Things should be getting a lot more interesting in the coming weeks...Stay lifted and be Blessed! 😎🙏~

A rainy week but she pushed through…I cut two bud Roth spots this week after the humidity spiked again. Her sativa genetics is her only savior for the next 3 or 4 weeks before harvest.

Strains: Zamnesia – Strawberry Cough | Kalini Asia | Permanent Marker Grow Type: Indoor Plants: 3 Pot Size: 16 Gallon & 13 Gallon Medium: Coco Coir & Perlite Nutrient Line: Athena Week 3 Flower Update We’re into week 3 now and everything is running smooth. Stretch is pretty much wrapping up and they’ve settled into flower nicely. The buds are starting to bulk up and form properly, and you can see things coming together across all three plants. I’m still going through and cleaning up fan leaves here and there, mainly the ones blocking light from hitting the bud sites. Just keeping everything open so the lower sites can get some light and develop properly. No issues to report they’re feeding well, looking healthy, and just doing their thing. This is the stage where it starts getting exciting watching them stack up. Feeding Volume: 6L pH: 6.0 PPM: 1000–1100 ppm Frequency: As needed Indoor Climate Conditions (Flowering) 🌡️ Temperature: 26°C day / 18°C night 💧 Humidity: 45–50% 📈 VPD: ~1.3–1.5 kPa Now the real stacking begins 🔥🌿

She’s been starting to stretch and there are clear signs of pre-flower. She has some spots on her leafs and some burned tips but no other problems. Therefore I think that the spots are mechanical damage from LST and the burned tips may be light or heat stress?

Week 14 from Seed – Week 3 of Flower – Full Bloom Ahead The garden is shifting, and so are the vibes — we’re now stepping into the serious stages of the Eternity Grow Cup. Week 3 of flower, and what a beautiful time it is. The girls are officially locked into bloom mode and starting to show their power, stretching with grace and stacking flowers that promise magic. They’ve filled up the SCROG like it was meant for them — one look, and you can feel the energy radiating off the canopy. We started this week a little on the chilly side, with temps dropping down to 16°C, but we found the rhythm. By the end of the week, we had it all dialed in: 24°C with 60% humidity, giving us a clean and steady VPD of 1.22 kPa. CO₂ is rolling at 1107 ppm, and let me tell you, the girls are loving every part of it. They’re responding like pros — strong, healthy, compact, with early signs of dense flower sites setting in all over the canopy. The ICL 300s are fully in play now, and they’re doing a spectacular job. Light penetration is even, and the plants are soaking it up. We’re still holding off on UV, just letting the full spectrum and reds do their thing for now. We’ve updated our feeding too — we’re now into Week 4 of the Aptus Holland Clean Program, and we are about to introduce Plagron Green Sensation into the mix. A little booster to spice up the bloom and get those flower stacks rising to the challenge. The water temps were a struggle — stuck at 14°C — so we dropped in a classic aquarium water heater, and now we’re sitting at a comfy 20°C. Small changes, big impacts. You can see it in the leaves, in the way they pray up toward the light. This week’s visuals? Shot with both the Nikon and Sony setups, featuring different lenses and filters to capture the layers of depth, light, and mood in the garden. The difference between them is clear — two different worlds coming together to tell one story. You’ll feel the vibe through the lens, I promise. Also, it’s veggie season outside — and in the middle of the flower hustle, I’ve been grounding myself with the babies in the outdoor garden. You’ll find some shots of the onions, peppers, and early green life joining the party. Nature always balances herself. Looking forward, Day 21 defoliation is just around the corner — we’ll be opening up the canopy, making way for the light to reach deeper, and helping these compact queens shine even brighter in the weeks to come. We’re just getting started. Massive love and gratitude to Zamnesia, Plagron, and Grow Diaries for building this amazing platform for us to grow, share, and celebrate this journey together. And to my beloved sponsors — Aptus Holland, Grove Bags, TrolMaster, ThinkGrow LEDs, Promix, Cannakan, and Ziggy Papers — thank you for the love, the gear, and the belief. And to all of you — lovers, haters, OGs, first-timers, and curious wanderers — thank you for being here. For showing up. For feeling the garden. This journey is for all of us. Let’s keep blooming.

Fine tuning the heater temp, but all seems stable now. Sorry about the pics with the grow light, I will figure out how to filter it. Compared to other White Widow diaries, my girls seems to be performing normally.

Buds are looking pretty. Already nice frosting of trichomes and density for small size is surprising. Have been worried about my roots and have taken all need steps to try and fix it. So far Daphni shows no signs of stress or nutrient lose. Knock on wood. Will be playing Velvet Underground for her this week. Does it make sense to cut off bad roots?

This week I added a 4 inch duct on the lower left side right by the fan, so it pulls in fresh air from another room. Also, I made a bunch of 1 inch holes in my buckets, then lined them up with mold resisting drywall tape and finally I wrapped the buckets in shiny hvac tape, figured it would help with the light. I have 2 temperature and humidity probes, one by the canopy and the other one lower. I must say that I was pleased with the progress so far.

Blütewoche 1 - 15.06. – 22.06.2026 Mit Beginn dieser Woche wurde die Blue Sunset Sherbert offiziell in die Blüte geschickt. Am 15.06.2026 wurde der Lichtzyklus von 18/6 auf 12/12 Stunden umgestellt, um die Blüte einzuleiten. Abgesehen von einer Bewässerung mit etwa vier Litern Wasser wurde die Pflanze weitestgehend in Ruhe gelassen. Weitere Eingriffe oder Trainingsmaßnahmen fanden nicht statt. Der Fokus lag darauf, die natürliche Entwicklung nach der Umstellung zu beobachten. Bereits in der ersten Blütewoche zeigte die Pflanze eine beeindruckende Reaktion auf die Lichtumstellung. Der Stretch fiel deutlich stärker aus als erwartet. Innerhalb von nur sieben Tagen legte die Blue Sunset Sherbert etwa 20 Zentimeter an Höhe zu. Gleichzeitig nahm sie nicht nur an Höhe, sondern auch sichtbar an Volumen zu. Die zuvor bereits buschige Pflanze entwickelte sich noch weiter in die Breite und füllte den verfügbaren Raum im Zelt zunehmend aus. Optisch präsentiert sich die Pflanze weiterhin in einem hervorragenden Zustand. Die Blätter zeigen ein sattes, gesundes Grün ohne erkennbare Mangelerscheinungen, Verbrennungen oder Anzeichen von Stress. Insgesamt wirkt die Pflanze äußerst vital und kräftig. Besonders erfreulich war die Beobachtung der ersten Blütenansätze. An zahlreichen Triebspitzen erschienen die ersten weißen Blütenfäden, wodurch das Geschlecht nun eindeutig bestimmt werden konnte. Nachdem der vorherige Samen dieser Sorte männlich war, bestand bis zuletzt eine gewisse Unsicherheit. Umso größer war die Freude, als sich die Pflanze eindeutig als weiblich herausstellte. Damit ist die Grundlage für einen vielversprechenden weiteren Verlauf gelegt. Nun bleibt spannend zu beobachten, wie lange der Stretch noch anhält, wie sich die Blütenstände entwickeln und wie sich die kleine Greenception GC4 im weiteren Verlauf der Blütephase schlagen wird.

Not much to say, we officially have take off. Leaf tucking and LST to expose the bud sites, trying not to take anything off if I can help it. These autos don't cope with much, glad I have my photoperiods in there. Can't wait to see some pretty flowers ;) Day 42- one of the Stardawg girls has had a huge growth spurt. Added in a 400 watt side light to fatten up any lower buds. 660Watt Hps over the top. Considering adding CO2 and investing in another light.. Maybe LED. Thoughts? -Day 42 Heights: StarD-73 StarD-35 GSC-39 GSC-35.5 (Day behind other girls.)

03.08.21 Moin Growmies hab mir in der letzten Woche Gedanken gemacht zu meinem Vorhaben mit den Tomatenringen und mir ist aufgefallen das die Ladys nicht Grad gleichmäßig wachsen ,das liegt sicherlich daran das ich Depp wieder schlauer sein wollte und ein paar Seitenäste dran gelassen habe sprich beim ersten topping hätte ich alles entfernen sollen bis auf die 2 Triebe von der 3. Nodie und ich hab die 2 nodie mit stehen lassen weil ich dachte ich bin schlauer 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬ich könnte mich selber schlagen für die Dummheit naja Ergebniss des ganzen ist ungleichmäßiges Wachstum somit kann ich die Sache mit den Tomaten Ringen vergessen.......... Hab jetzt aber mein System noch einmal überarbeitet andere Topferhöhung ( 2x alte Bilderrahmen aus Holz auf Paletten Balken geschraubt und mit Hühner Draht bespannt das ganze auf Steine gestellt damit ich ne Wanne darunter stellen kann für abtropfwasser) den Rahmen vom scrogg netzt wieder raus gesammelt und neu bespannt ( Rahmen 90x90 cm aus nem alten Pavillon Gestell zurecht gesägt und mit Zaun bespannt die Abstände zwischen den einzelnen Rauten beträgt 6 cm sollte ausreichend Platz für die Triebe sein) habe das ganze gestern auf einer Höhe von 16 cm über dem Topfrand eingebaut mit Kabelbindern an den Zeltstangen befestigt somit hängt es an seiner Position fest und kann nicht von den Pflanzen hoch gedrückt werden wenn sie in die Blüte geht. Also is nun doch wieder ein sqrogg draus geworden aber den Ladys geht es insgesamt gut sie wachsen und gedeihen und wirken insgesamt gesund in den nächsten Wochen werde ich nun die Ladys in das netzt weben und Mal sehen was sie von scrogging Alla Milchschnitte halten. Ach ja die purps aus dem Garten sind anscheinend direkt nach dem umtopfen in den Stretch zur Blüte gegangen war ein bisschen spät dran fürs raus setzten aber lässt sich jetzt nicht ändern Mal sehen was draus wird,vll ja ein Gummibärchen Baum 😏😉 hab den outdoor Ladys gestern nen kleinen Regenschutz gebaut, is nicht der schönste aber er sollte seinen Zweck erfüllen damit der Topf Mal abtrocknen kann das Wetter ist seit fast 14 Tagen hart wechselhaft und der Topf noch nicht 1x richtig trocken gewesen das war's eigendlich was bis heut passiert ist cu Growmies und euch noch viel Erfolg........

growing pretty well. think I started to get a nutrient lock so watered with straight water last 2x and prob 1 more. gonna switch to flower on new years and start flower nutrients. the one in the back smells amazing , considerably better than any of the others so far. both of these plants have purple stems so expectations are some purple later on as its in the name. I actually switched these into flower on day 1 of this week and put in a different tent. will bring back when I switch the other plants to flower.

Began week picking off yellowing foliage. Started her on a PK booster. I know I'm late to the PK party but only just hearing about it. Details in video.
