🌸 Week 4 Flower Report: Growth, Challenges & Big Changes! 🌸 Hey, Grow Diaries Fam! ✨ We’re here at Week 4 of Flower, and what a week it’s been—packed with challenges, adjustments, and exciting progress! Before diving into the details, let’s start with a note on my flowering timeline. While this is Week 4, I don’t start counting flower days the moment I flip to 12/12. Instead, I wait for the plants to show true signs of bloom. It’s a small but significant distinction that keeps things accurate and aligned with the plants’ development. 🌱 Defoliation: Timing is Everything! Defoliation is a critical part of the flowering stage, and I typically wait until Day 21. However, this week, I tackled it earlier on Day 17 because: 1️⃣ The room was simply too full. 2️⃣ And most importantly—the Papaya Zoap had other plans! She’s a fighter—determined, defiant, and constantly reaching for the moon. Despite intense training like super cropping, she’s still pushing upward, nearly outpacing the LED lights. Challenges like this remind us of a simple truth: gardening mirrors life. It’s about resilience, adaptation, and unwavering determination. 💪 This week, I added a second SCROG layer. While this net will support the flowering colas, it’s also there to strategically manage the Papaya Zoap. Why? Because experience has taught me that if she grows out of the LED’s range, she won’t finish properly—and that could disrupt the balance for every other plant in the tent. It’s all about teamwork, even in the garden. 🌟 Defoliation was intense, removing nearly all the leaves with stems to clear space and boost airflow. The tent now looks dramatically different! For the full before-and-after transformation, be sure to check out my YouTube channel—trust me, you’ll want to see this process up close! 🎥✨ Switching to Aptus Holland Minerals A major milestone this week: I’ve transitioned entirely to Aptus Holland Minerals. 🌊 From now on, it’s just minerals—no more organic inputs. This marks the start of a new chapter, and I’m incredibly curious to see how the plants react to these changes. Here’s the current nutrient mix: • System Clean: 0.5 ml/L • Regulator: 0.15 ml/L • RO Water Conditioner: 0.8 ml/L • All-in-One Liquid: 2.1 ml/L I’m keeping the pH at 6.1 and TDS at 556 ppm, and so far, the plants are thriving. This week also included a thorough system clean, ensuring everything runs smoothly as we enter the final flowering stages. 🌿 Bud Development: Pure Magic! The bud formation across all the genetics is nothing short of incredible. Every plant is thriving, and the canopy is lush, vibrant, and full of potential. I’ve raised the PPFD to 750 for this stage, with temps steady at 25°C and RH at 63%—keeping the VPD dialed in at 1.11. The TrolMaster ecosystem, paired with the AutoPots, makes managing these precise conditions seamless. With more time to focus on the plants, I can give them the daily care they deserve. 💚 Shoutouts & Gratitude A huge thank you to my sponsors and supporters: TrolMaster, Aptus Holland, Pro-Mix, Cannakan, and the amazing seed banks.

Unlike traditional LED systems that project light in a single direction, the ICL-300’s 300-degree design ensures even light distribution beneath the canopy. 🌟 This unique feature means that no part of your plant is left in shadow, creating a balanced environment for lower buds to thrive. Key Tech Specs & Benefits: • 300-Degree Light Distribution: This design fills the under-canopy space with optimal light, enhancing photosynthesis where it often gets neglected. 🌱 • Full Spectrum Output: Tailored to meet the specific needs of plants at every stage, ensuring quality growth from base to apex. • Energy Efficiency: Advanced LED technology delivers maximum output with minimal energy usage, keeping costs down and sustainability up. 💡 • Durability & Heat Management: Built with high-quality materials, the ICL-300 stays cool and reliable, even in intense growing environments. Why It Matters: Under-canopy lighting is a game-changer for growers aiming to maximize yield and quality. Typically, lower buds receive less light, resulting in larfy or underdeveloped flowers. The ICL-300 changes that dynamic entirely by turning shadows into opportunity. 🌟 With light evenly dispersed across the entire plant, you’re not just growing; you’re sculpting a masterpiece. For me, the ICL-300 is more than a tool—it’s a partner in innovation. It ensures that every plant in my grow room has equal opportunity to shine, from the top colas to the smallest buds at the base. When paired with a carefully managed ecosystem, like the one powered by TrolMaster, the potential for consistent, top-quality harvests reaches new heights. This isn’t just about adding light—it’s about adding value, efficiency, and balance to the grow process. I’m beyond excited to see how the ICL-300 transforms the game in my tent, and I can’t wait to share the results with you all! 💚

Lots of pretty colors :) Had some problems with the left lady. Yellow/light green leaves, gave it some N. appears to be solved. Noticed some light burn, reduced ppfd to 800 Slightly reduced nutes Kinda crazy to see how these plants grow so differently even tho they are the same strain and got the same treatment.

The Gorilla Cookies is turning into an impressive young lady. Even though she has an 11L pot, the growth rate is amazing. The bloom is setting in slowly, there are some white pistils visible but no buds just yet. At the second half of week 5 I'm seeing the first few buds appearing. The plant is really impressive to watch. I'm easing up on the bloom nutrients as the top leafs have yellow tips which could be nutrient burn. Just water and Bio Tabs for the next couple of days and I hope she'll be fine 😇

Day 33: All 3 seeds i popped were female. Moved my favorite to the 30gal under the ROI-420E light in the 3x3 section. I gave 1 of the girls away and potted up the other to a 5L . Mykos Mycorrhizal used while transplanting on the roots. Fed with craft blend and some black frass then watered. The one i put in the 30gal seems to have stalled a bit. better color than before but the 5L one sprung up like crazy. Some LST just to strengthen the stems a bit day after transplant. Light kept at 50% but just bumped to 75% at about 20". Inline fan is kept off during veg for now but i have 2 fans blowing around. Edit: On 3/27/22 i determined what i thought was shock was actually underwatering. I dug down about a foot to feel the soil. The soil would clump together under some pressure but not as much as a well hydrated soil should when squeezed. I added 1.3Gal of tap water and today 3/28/22 the leaves perked up. texture and color are a bit off i'd say but i'll check back in another day or so.

Cruise control... Watered plain water 6.7ph on Wednesday and Sunday.... Literally no fuss. The Stalks are fatter than a #2 pencil already. No sex yet. I need them to hurry on that because I think they are already getting close to needing a flip. They should be some good sized plants. Which the 3 gallon are obviously going to be to small for a plant this robust. Maybe if I had flipped them already... All 3 are showing desirable traits. So I think we just send them all into flower and decide which one gets either Back crossed or maybe 1 of these will be a male! If one is a male then I will shoot for an F2 pollination / Offspring. But if not the back cross should be good as well. Not much else to report on this diary, easy cheesy week. Thank you all for looking.

Plants are almost done. Feeding at 400 EC. Slowly getting them ready for flush. The front right lady seems to be about a week behind but it's okay. Shell get cut last.

it smells SOOOOOO sweet in my house im glad it is leagal the Black lebanon has so much resin its all most dripping you cant touch a leaf without your fingers sticking together Super Sativa Seed Club has nothing but top notch genetics My next Grow will feature Sour Tangie Chemdawg, and Bruce Lemon diesel. my current grow harvest date is DEC 3RD I can wait more to follow soon Black Lebanon is one of the prettiest buds I have ever grown gulp gulp nothin but H20 till dec 3rd

D64/F12 - 11.18 - Been a really incredible week for these ladies. All of them are thriving with lovely prebuds <3 D67/F15 - 11.21 - Lovely progress. Even the least beautiful plant in the garden is reaching above the peony rings :) D70/F18 - 11.24 - Pretty aggressive defoliation on these ladies today. They responded great last round, so I expect to see the start to put a lot of weight on soon. The black sugars (second column of three from the left) we way more leafy than the fast white widows

Day 85 since seed touched soil. Trim jail !!! 2.4 meters of hanging frosty buds and air ;)))))) Happy Growing !!!

very nice strain with 2 great ancestors, solid taste and scent, got some great buds with great taste and awesome looking plants with incredible colors

Starting to pack it on!

Heading into week 4 of Flower everything is budin up really nice Zake is the frostiest and really has a mint smell to it Looks like i already can say that breakpad breath will take more than 8 weeks Pink runtz x Hollywood has a Creazy Sweet smell to it

Hello everyone, The girls are finally outside in 20 gallon fabric pots. This season I have a greenhouse for them and I hope it goes good. Still have to build the first cages around them and start stretching them. 🎊🎉 finally, summer is here 🎉🎊 See you guys next week 🤞🤞🤘🤘👊👊👊

The plant grows. I have now added an oxygen pump to the water tank. Let's see what effect that has. You can see the progress every day. I've also bought some phosphoric acid to keep the PH down (hopefully). My water tank is very large, about 75 litres. I also have a few holes in the lid, so a lot of rainwater gets into the tank through this and also through the openings in the pots. Never had to top up the water yet lol. At the end of the fourth week I'm happy with the growth, especially as it's my first plant. -------------------------- Die Pflanze wächst. Ich habe mittlerweile einen Sauerstoffpumpe in den Wassertank gegeben. Mal sehen wie sich das auswirkt. Man sieht den Fortschritt jeden Tag. Ich habe außerdem Phosphorsäure gekauft, um den PH-Wert endllich stabil unten zu halten (hoffentlich). Mein Wassertank ist sehr groß, ca. 75 Liter. Außerdem habe ich ein paar Löcher im Deckel, so dass dadurch und auch durch die Öffnungen in den Töpfen viel Regenwasser in den Tank gelangt. Musste noch nie Wasser nachfüllen lol. Am Ende von der vierten Woche bin ich zufrieden mit dem Wachstum, vor allem da es meine erste Pflanze ist.

12/12

As for what I've been doing for maintenance, I've been watching and waiting and just adding water when needed into the reservoir, should be less then 2 or 3 days by now

Welcome Back!💚 Nach der siebten Blütewoche, bilden sich die Blütenköpfe immer noch weiter aus. Die Blütenbildung entwickelt sich prächtig und es wirkt, als hätte man überall wundervolle Inseln mit richtig schönen Buds. Die Blätter im oberen Bereich fangen an sich langsam rötliche bis lilafarben zu verfärben. Diese Woche gab es nochmals einen PK Komposttee zum Boostern. Das Aroma wird immer intensiver. Insgesamt hat die Pflanze ein sehr großes und breitgefächertes Wuchsbild und ist insgesamt ziemlich groß. Die Umgebungsgegebenheiten sind aufgrund des Temperaturabsturzes etwas unregelmäßig aber immer im Rahmen. ————— 🌞 Temp: 22°C 🌚 Temp: 19°C bis 20°C 💨 RH: 46% VPD: 1,21 kPa👍 😎 PPFD: 830 mqm ————— Grüne Grüße 💚

I removed all of the LST strings, to let her grow more freely in her last week. She looks amazing and i am very happy with my first grow. I will harvest her next week or the end of the week. I won't do flushing, because I only use organic fertilizer and want her to grow till her last day. Some crazy Things are happening right now. She ist growing new buds on her buds! I decided to give her another extra week, just to see how this experiment will turn out.

Starting 5th week of flower today Light feeding
