The plants stretched a lot this week also started flowering so i started with 4 of these seeds. 3 of them got the exact same hight and width so i took out the smallest plant to make seeds with it in another room. the cannopy is filled nice with just the three of them i hope stretching stops and flowers start to fatten up. they will continue to flower under this 104watt Led untill harvest

Plants looking good they have a light smell plant 1 is developing slower than plant two. Plant 2’s bud are very dense!!! Still a few weeks to go

Let’s Go day 29!! This week went real nice ! Girls are staying very healthy and building up nicely and even started showing signs of female sex which is super great ! We started doing a little bit of leaf tuck training method on em , nothing to big as like I said I want these girls just to do there thang an grow more on naturally side! My Air temp and Humidity have been on point all week, staying from 70-75 degrees throughout the day and humidity staying around 58-61% humidity , my girls are loving that summer an 75 feeling !! Can’t wait to see what we do this week ! Hopefully you all enjoy, and are ready for another great productive week ! Peace love an positive vibes to y’all Cheers 😶‍🌫️💨💨💨💨🤙🏻Happy Grows✌️🏻Week 4 let’s get it !

Blazing hot week spent mostly trimming/harvesting. Even broke a pair of scissors :) Smooth trim from start to finish - plants were flushed in the last week

Hi to every one i hope you enjoing my diaries The video uploaded is just before the girls wake up and after i did some defoliation on pheno2 and heavy one on pheno 1 hoping start showing some flower formation whitaout all that littel leaf The pass ed week i start main lining on runtz xl she responds too good and shown healty new growth i Also defoliated the littel zenzation she litteraly have two weeks less to the other sisters she doing great I watered only the big gyal couse she drinking all things faster obiviusly then her sisters By to everyone see ya in the next episode Stay safe and never stop grow

Hey! At last the day of the harvest arrived. Before that, I stopped watering the plant 4 days ago, and turned off the lights 2 days ago. As for questionable techniques, I adhere to the principle - if it doesn’t get worse, why not try?😄 So, I put the harvested crop in a dark ventilated box, for about 10 days, I will observe. p.s. I invite everyone to the next update of the diary - I will sum up, remember the interesting moments of the cycle, and of course I will try the finished product, see you! 😍 Glory to Ukraine! 🇺🇦

🌱 Sour Diesel — Week 8 (Flower Week 3) — Strategic Reset Week ⸻ 🔁 Quick Recap — Where We Are • Genetics: Sour Diesel • Timeline: Week 8 from seed • Flowering: Week 3 • Height: ~60–70 cm (compact structure) • Room Temp: 28°C • RH: 65% • Feed EC: 2.9 • pH: 6.5 (kept above 6.0 intentionally) • Lighting: LED • Action this week: Strategic defoliation This plant is not tall — she’s compact, dense, and structurally tight. Which means airflow and internal light penetration become critical early. And that’s exactly why this week mattered. ⸻ 🍃 The Defoliation — Not Aesthetic. Architectural. This was not cosmetic trimming. It was: • Removing large fan leaves blocking interior bud sites • Cleaning inner congestion • Opening airflow channels • Resetting light distribution across the canopy • Helping the entire room environment (not just this plant) The room needed air — this plant was advanced enough to handle stress. That’s key. Week 3 of flower is the transition window: • Stretch is slowing • Bud sites are set • Energy shifts toward stacking At this stage, a strategic defoliation: • Improves transpiration efficiency • Reduces microclimate humidity pockets • Prevents internal leaf-to-leaf condensation • Encourages bud site activation below the top canopy This was structural architecture. Not haircut vanity. ⸻ 🌡️ 28°C in Flower — “Too Hot?” Let’s Go Deep. People panic when they hear 28°C in flower. But here’s where most growers confuse: 🔥 HPS vs LED Heat Behavior Under HPS: • Radiant heat warms leaf surfaces directly • Leaf temperature often equals or exceeds room temp • 28°C air under HPS can mean 30–32°C leaf temp • That pushes VPD dangerously high Under LED: • Less infrared radiation • Leaf surface temp is typically 1–3°C LOWER than room temp • So at 28°C room temp, leaf temp might be 25–26°C And VPD calculations depend on leaf temperature, not air temperature. ⸻ 🌿 What Is Leaf VPD? VPD (Vapor Pressure Deficit) measures the difference between: • Moisture inside the leaf • Moisture in the surrounding air But if you calculate VPD using only room temp, you’re missing the real transpiration dynamics. With: • 28°C air • ~25–26°C leaf surface (LED) • 65% RH Leaf VPD sits in a very workable mid-flower zone. Not extreme. Not stress-inducing. Not shutdown territory. We’re driving metabolism, not cooking terpenes. ⸻ 💧 Why 65% RH Isn’t Dangerous Here Context matters: • Good airflow • Opened canopy • Compact but cleaned structure • Early-mid flower (Week 3, not Week 7) At this stage: • Pistils are forming • Bud density is still moderate • Transpiration is active High humidity becomes dangerous when: • Bud mass is dense • Internal airflow is poor • Late flower resin traps moisture We’re not there yet. And we just improved airflow with defoliation. ⸻ ⚡ EC 2.9 — Aggressive but Intentional That EC is strong. But: • Plant is compact, not oversized • Sour Diesel can eat • pH 6.5 keeps availability wide (Ca, Mg, P balance) The key will be: • Watching leaf tips • Monitoring runoff behavior • Watching for clawing or salt stress Right now, if she’s praying and stacking, she’s handling it. ⸻ 🔍 What To Expect Next Week (Flower Week 4) After defoliation: You may see: • Slight pause (24–72 hours) • Increased vertical bud push • Better lower-site activation • More defined pistil clustering • Stronger apical dominance response If recovery is clean: • Buds begin early stacking phase • Internodes tighten • Resin production initiates at bract level If stress appears: • Slight leaf droop • Tip burn acceleration • Reduced upward leaf angle But based on structure and timing — this looks calculated, not reactive. ⸻ 🧠 Why This Week Matters Long-Term This week determines: • Airflow pattern for late flower • Mold resistance later • Bud density uniformity • Final trim efficiency • Light-to-bud conversion efficiency This wasn’t about now. This was about Week 7 and 8 survival. ⸻ 🙏 Appreciation Section To: • The OGs here since seed • The new followers discovering the journey • The silent readers • The critics • The skeptics • The lovers • The haters • The platform • The sponsors • The community • Grow Diaries itself Everyone has a place here.

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.

did this beautiful girl a topping, depilation, and LST, she feels good 💚

Big Fat Wedding Cake is growing good. I did a solution change on her 4 days ago. She is developing some nice colas with a good frost. She is starting to bulk and give off a aroma. Nothing else to report at the moment.

Las primeras imágenes son durantes los días , las lemon king tienen un crecimiento muy similar , sus CM van entre los 14 a 16 cm en sus 21 días desde germinación ! Bellísimas hojas delgadas y fuertes ...las fotos finales son después su su corte apical , lo hice ayer a sus 20 días y hoy respondieron súper bien , cero detección de stress...te amo tierra , semilla , árbol ,agua y cielo ...energía ilimitada entre nosotros , padre Sol . Madre tierra

Plants are starting to be full of flowers but one thing I do not explain is why the plant in the middle has a main bud that is actually quite thin.

Frosty’s purple freak is now on from on the 2nd week of preflower with multiple side branches stretching upwards and outwards with secondary side branches emerging off of each side branch as well as for top node stretching upwards

Well another week for this adoptepted Gelato. I got simi bad news. The main stem snapped! It Snapped while tying branches down. Trying not to panic, i tried to put the branch back together again nice and tightly with some tape. After securing the branch I gave this plant a good feeding. Im really keeping my fingers crossed with this girl, only time can tell. Let me kno what yall think. If she do not bounce back, I plan to go ahead with the flip and get what I can from the remaining branches...

The week before I topped this baby’s and I’ve added some LST clips . Hasn’t started showing signs of preflower yet. What’s the longests it’s taken your autos to flower ? Just curious. Be back next week with another update . Happy Growing 🌱

Fat banana for the win. Super sticky and smells amazing. Going to be a pretty good yield on the 3 I have. The gorilla zkittlez auto seems like it was overly stressed or is experiencing bud rot of some sort. So many bud sites but no actual growth to the twigs. May scrap that and process for edibles.

Zu Beginn der Woche wurde auf Blüte umgestellt. Mit dem bisherigen Wuchs bin ich sehr zufrieden. Die Pflanze zeigt ein gleichmäßiges Blätterdach, wächst buschig und hat viele Nebentriebe gebildet, die nun Licht bekommen. Bisher habe ich nur wenige Blätter entfernt. Gelegentlich habe ich oben einzelne nach innen wachsende Blätter entfernt, wenn sie darunterliegende Triebe verdeckten. Da die Luftfeuchtigkeit bisher unproblematisch ist und sich keine Staunässe zwischen den Blättern bildet, sehe ich derzeit keinen Grund, mehr Blattmasse zu entfernen. Eine stärkere Entlaubung plane ich für den 21. Blütetag, wenn ich auch Lolli Poppen werde. Der Stretch hält sich bislang in Grenzen. Das hatte ich allerdings auch erwartet. Bis zum Ende der Woche hat sich die Pflanze um 10 cm gestreckt und die Zeltfläche gut ausgefüllt. Zur Umstellung auf die Blüte habe ich die LED auf 40 % erhöht, um die entfallenen sechs Lichtstunden auszugleichen. Der Luftbefeuchter ist ausgeschaltet, und den Controller habe ich auf Temperatur- und Luftfeuchtigkeitsregelung umgestellt. In der Lichtphase wird nur die Temperatur berücksichtigt, in der Dunkelphase dagegen nur die Luftfeuchtigkeit. Die Zieltemperatur liegt bei 25 °C, die Zielluftfeuchtigkeit bei 50 %. Die Abluft ist dabei auf mindestens 10 % und höchstens 30 % eingestellt. Da beide Werte stark von den Bedingungen im Grow Room abhängen, läuft die Abluft meist auf 30 %. Aktiv von außen gegensteuern würde ich nur, wenn die Luftfeuchtigkeit im Grow Room so hoch steigt, dass sie sich im Zelt nicht mehr unter 60 % halten lässt. In diesem Fall würde im Grow Room ein Luftentfeuchter zum Einsatz kommen, vor dem eine aktive Zuluft zum Zelt positioniert wäre. Die Parameter in Woche 7: Controller Einstellung Tag: Temperatur und Luftfeuchtigkeit 24C°-26C°, 45% - 55% Controller Einstellung Nacht: Temperatur und Luftfeuchtigkeit 24C°-26C°, 45% - 55% Durchschnittliche Tagestemperatur: 26,9C° Durchschnittliche Nachttemperatur: 23C° Durchschnittliche Luftfeuchtigkeit Tag: 51% Durchschnittliche Luftfeuchtigkeit Nacht: 54,3% Durchschnittlicher VPD Tag: 1,3 Durchschnittlicher VPD Nacht: 1 Durchschnittliche Bodenfeuchtigkeit in Mbar: 94 LED Leistung: 40% = 120 Watt Beleuchtungsdauer: 12 Stunden Umluft: Stufe 2 oszillierend
