If you pheno hunt you will be rewarded! Big yields Medium/Manageable height Fast speed of growth Medium flower cycle Rock density buds Sweet/sour/lime/apple smell and taste Must keep temps low 26c 80F sweet spot 100% I will grow again when I have space. A great grow despite some silly errors by myself and one crazy pheno weathered the storm to produced some serious quality cannabis that showcases the best award winning genetics that Royal queen seeds have meticulously bred. I'll always have a royal queen seed plant in my tent from now on.

8/30/17 It's been an emotional week, sorry for the lack of updates. I finally had to admit that 4 of my plants, while fully pre-flowered, did not auto-flower under 20 hour lights. The decision was made to remove them from the tent. It was a tough decision made easier as Auto Speed Bud #3 reached over 130cm and was touching the light, blocking light from plants that WERE flowering. There was really no choice at that point. So I spent 2 days trying to find them a new home. Yes, I had grown attached. Yes I found them a home. They have been transferred to soil and will be going under 12/12. I don't really know the guy well who ended up with them (a friend of a friend), so I don't know if I will ever know how they did, but they were part of my first grow so I am glad they got adopted rather than me having to kill them. In other news, I have had to start adding stakes to keep buds from falling, notably on the Kush (my superstar and only LST plant) and the Mango Cream, which seems to have hollow stems. I was concerned about this until I read up on it and hollow stems are a sign of no lockout or deficiencies and good nute uptake. They certainly look beautiful, so this is good news. However, so far 3 stakes have been added to the Mango Cream, so I hope I didn't damage the roots too much. I am looking into an alternative to stakes for the next go round. I didn't expect buds that heavy, but I ain't complaining! Slight Changes in nutes: Current feeding FloraMicro 4ml gal FloraGrow 1.25ml gal FloraBloom 8ml gal SM-90 2.5ml gal Cannazym 2.5ml Gal Ful-Potential 2.5ml gal Liquid Koolbloom 2ml gal Floralicious Plus 1ml gal ArmorSI 1.5ml gal CaliMagic 3.75ml gal (still running it high, but after seeing water report, I might have been wrong to use GH hardwater micro) FloraNectar 5ml gal Drip Clean 0.4ml gal Flora blend is out this week, Grow is out next week. Switching from Ful-Potential to Ful-Power when I soon finish the bottle. Nothing wrong with Ful-Potential, I just keep hearing about how good the chelation in the Ful-Power is, so I am game to try it since I need more Humics/Fulvics anyway. It is worth noting that I am now running ALL the GH nutes at full strength with no hint of burn. I am tempted to push them, but being my first grow, I don't think I will. However, this is a solid foundation for me to tinker with formulas for my next grows. The medium and my setup has performed wonderfully so far, and if the harvest is a success, I will certainly be more confident to experiment further. I may, however, use full strength Ful-Power which recommends reducing nutes by 10-20%. Instead of increasing nutes, full strength Ful-Power may give me the boost I am looking for while minimizing burn potential. I love that coco helps buffer and flush things, by nature, that the plant isn't using. I am so stoked that I ended up choosing coco for my 1st grow, but that is another topic for another day! I have edited the diary to reflect the loss of 2 strains and the title to reflect the current reality. Perhaps I should have left them unchanged. I am not sure. However, the diary title and strains are correct at this point. So there it is. I am now attempting to feed all 6 plants every day. There will be some days that I miss, but so far my 10 gallon bucket produces enough runoff on 6 plants if watered daily and most people who end up adopting this late stage strategy often would double/quadruple it if they could spare the time and/or afford the nutes. Once a day seems a good enough way to take advantage of the benefits of the medium without diminishing returns. I wish that I had the type of life that allowed me to set up proper control groups to test this stufff. I have also permanently started emptying the dehumidifier into the nute bucket as it has a PH of around 5.3 (my tap is around 8) and a ppm of around 8 (my ppm varies from 150-200 since i have been monitoring), 1-2 gallons a day to help out. I am loving it as much as PH down with white vinegar. I also obtained a water quality report and found that although my agency adds chlorine, they do not add chloramine so airing the bucket out for 14-16 hours after filling from the tap and cutting it with dehumidifier water should remove any threat to the beneficial living things that I have added to my girlies, so this is good news. 8/31/17 Man, I wish I used stakes from day 1. Every additional stake I put in makes me cringe and more stakes are becoming necessary. I am just lucky they are so healthy.

Harvest was about 4 days total and i ended up dying plants for 12-14 days just depening on what was cut when and also structure because i wet trimmed one plant and let the others dry/ cure with the sugar leaves. I did that because i fivure they have tricombs and thats where all the good stuff is so might as well 🤷‍♂️ they will get the post cure trim probably about week 2-3 thats when ill post final video of all pheno! Curing at about 65% humidity trying to stay tward that higher side only because i am in colorado and buds dry out so fast, a couple pheno where in the high 50s the firdt two days so j re moistened them with a damp paper towel and just have been keeping an eye on them. I gotta say as a novice grower leaving sugar leaves is helping me determine the moisture level in my jars

FBT2309 had a little ph issue this week. She got a few spots on the look leaves from it. I have corrected the issue. Organo mineral nutrition is a lot more difficult to do in a hydro application. I am doing my best to try, and control it. I believe my nutrition is a bit too strong. Besides that she is growing great under the Medic Grow Mini Sun-2. She should start stretching soon. Which is good she is quickly loosing space from the flowering plants around her. She has been trained and is ready to start another week. Thank you Medic Grow, Gen1:11, and Fast Buds. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g If anyone needs to purchase fastbuds here is a link for my affiliate program https://myfastbuds.com/?a_aid=60910eaff2419

### Week 11 Update: Bubba Kush Needs Attention 🌿🌟 ### 🌱 Flowering Phase Continues 🌱 Welcome to Week 11! The plants are progressing well in their flowering stage, although Bubba Kush is showing some signs of distress. Let’s dive into the current status and adjustments we’re making. --- ### 🌿 Current Plant Status 🌿 **Greenhouse Super Lemon Haze 🌞** - **Growth:** Continuing to stretch, and the canopy is healthy and full. The plant has hit its peak height and is now focusing on flower development. - **Flowering Progress:** More pistils are forming, and the early buds are starting to swell slightly. Things are on track for strong flower development in the upcoming weeks. **Humboldt Seed Bubba Kush 🌿** - **Growth:** The bushy structure remains, but the plant is showing signs of stress. This could be nutrient-related or environmental. - **Flowering Progress:** Bud development is slower compared to the other plants. Leaves may appear a bit droopy or discolored, suggesting nutrient uptake issues or overwatering. We’ll need to adjust feeding or check for root health. **Blueberry Muffin 🥞** - **Growth:** The canopy remains strong and dense, continuing to support flower production. The structure is ideal for the upcoming heavier buds. - **Flowering Progress:** Pistils and calyxes are developing rapidly. Bud sites are becoming more defined, and the plant is in a healthy flowering state. --- ### 🌱 Nutrient and Supplement Update 🌱 **Adjustments for Bubba Kush:** - Bubba Kush’s slower progress and signs of stress could be caused by pH imbalances, nutrient lockout, or possible root issues. We'll do the following: - **Check pH levels** to ensure they’re in the optimal range (around 6.0–6.5 for soil). - **Reduce watering frequency** if overwatering is suspected. - **Add a light flush** to ensure no nutrient buildup is affecting the roots. **Current Nutrient Regimen:** - **Power Roots (PLAGRON):** 1 ml/l to keep supporting root health. - **Pure Zym (PLAGRON):** 0.5 ml/l to aid root health and prevent any potential nutrient lockout. - **Terra Bloom (PLAGRON):** 2 ml/l to supply essential nutrients for flower development. - **Power Buds (PLAGRON):** 0.5 ml/l to help boost bud formation and density. - **Orgatrex (Bio Tabs):** 2 ml/l for a complete, balanced nutrient profile. --- ### 🌱 Environmental Conditions 🌱 **Temperature & Humidity:** - Temperature and humidity are being carefully managed to prevent mold and encourage strong flower development. Humidity may be slightly lowered for Bubba Kush if mold or rot is a concern. **Training & Defoliation:** - LST and selective defoliation continue for all plants except Bubba Kush, which will need gentler care until it rebounds. --- ### 🌸 Looking Ahead 🌸 While Super Lemon Haze and Blueberry Muffin are showing promising progress in the flowering stage, Bubba Kush requires close monitoring and some care adjustments to help it recover. We’ll pay attention to its nutrient and environmental needs to get it back on track. Next week, we’ll assess how these changes affect Bubba Kush’s health and check in on the overall flowering progress of the garden. Happy growing! 🌟💚

I have continued the diary as have a orange sherbet ff still on her 5th week and would like too document her at full potential. Unlike my other she did not preflower early and has thrived doing very well compared too the other orange sherbet who unfortunatley at the end did not go so well come harvest. I will show both harvests once this girl has finished. I expect her too be flying into forming buds this week hoping all sites give generously as it seems they are all thick with pistils as can see 🌱 lollipopping has benefitted from what I can tell. Intensity of light reduced hopefully no issues to come from that as I seen leaves tips burnt slightly so changed light 💡

11/20: Harvested all 3 Gorilla Cookies. It took them a week to dry. Dry weights: plant A - 121g plant B - 80g plant C - 100g Final thoughts: It was easy weed to grow, and produced a lot of dense/heavy/delicious flowers. Would def grow it again.👌 Potency: 8/10 Yield: 9/10 Flavor: 9/10 Aroma: 7/10 Bag-appeal: 10/10 Bud density: 10/10

Tuesday update Ok so the plants are on a 12/12 cycle now and have been for about a week but I’m not counting it at a flowering weed until I. See pre-flowers at least. I’m surprised they hadn’t really reached sexual maturity by the time I flipped but it’s all good. They are getting to a very respectable size now - more so than that, they all have a really decent amount of growth nodes and are growing outwards more than upwards because of how I have topped, defoliated and got rid of the crap lateral branches at the bottom that don’t do anything. I was actually really amazed at how compact and scraggly they were at the bottoms of the stems when I came back and checked them today. They look much more bushy and straggly than the autos I have grown. I would say there is more need to have lolipopped and topped and stuff than with autos. If you really want you can just leave autos to get on with it and they don’t go TOO bushy at the base where as these really needed a tidy up. I do see a couple of pistols now which is starting to stop my worries about their sexual maturity and time management. With photos are you supposed to veg until you see them pre-flower? Or do they only show pre-flowers once you flip?
