Day 65 27 December 2023 As the clock struck midnight on New Year's Eve, a group of friends gathered to celebrate in a cozy cabin nestled in the snowy mountains. Instead of the usual champagne, they decided to ring in the new year with a different kind of togetherness—surrounded by the calming presence of cannabis. They named themselves the "High Horizon Crew" and transformed the cabin into a haven of relaxation. A warm fireplace crackled, and the aroma of various cannabis strains filled the air. The friends shared stories from the past year, reflecting on highs and lows while passing around joints and sharing edibles. As the night unfolded, they set intentions for the coming year, not with traditional resolutions, but with a shared commitment to personal growth and well-being. The atmosphere was filled with laughter, deep conversations, and a sense of camaraderie that transcended the typical New Year's festivities. As the clock approached midnight, the friends gathered outside, passing a joint as they watched fireworks light up the winter sky. With each puff, they let go of the challenges of the past and welcomed the possibilities of the future. The High Horizon Crew embraced the new year with open hearts and a shared belief that, together, they could face whatever came their way. And so, under the stars and the influence of cannabis, they welcomed the dawn of a new year with a sense of unity, peace, and the promise of positive growth. Happy New Years 🎉🎉🎆 Heya👍🤙👍🌱

Day 107 (f45) update: She is coming along well! Was much in need of the day 42 defoliation as her fat fan leaves were blocking nearly all the light... Now the mid section is clearly under developed and more light green colored however since the defoliation the overall bud production is picking up in the mid section. In hindsight with this strain I should have removed more growth shoots at the start of flower (and more leaves at the week 3 defoliation) because currently most of the volume of the plant's flowers is in her mid/lower section... 😅 Her smells are doing well!! They didn't change much in the past week however the smell became stronger and when I rub the buds and then rub my fingers together I get some nice kushy fuely dank smells very much looking forward to smelling her after a good 2 month cure! 😛😛😎 She was showing slight nutrient burn and deficiencies so did a res change and lowered the nutrient dosage. Trying Botanicare TEA and SWEET RAW supplements to gain in terpenes... Hopefully it will be noticeable in the end result 😜 By the looks of it, at least 3 weeks left till harvest! Looking forward to it!!! 😀😀😀

🌿 Mango Kush — Harvest Report (Week 7 Flower → Harvest) Grow Diaries — From Seed to Soul After months of nurturing, tuning, and watching the Mango Kush sisters evolve, today we finally harvest. What began as two seeds—two phenos with two destinies—has become a garden symphony of light, resin, and patience. Genetic Journey — From Seed to Harvest Pheno #1: Started in veg before flipping; taller, more expressive stretch; structured and vigorous. Pheno #2: Ran 12/12 from seed—shorter cycle, smaller frame, but incredibly dense. Different paths, same destination. Despite the variation, both finished side by side, their trichomes shimmering like frost under the lens. From the very first true leaves to the last amber sparkle, this grow embodied the full spectrum of plant life. Both phenos shared that unmistakable Mango Kush sweetness—fruit-forward, creamy, with earthy Kush undertones that deepen as they cure. 🔬 Trichomes — The Living Resin We harvested with trichomes at about 75 % cloudy, a few ambers scattered, and a few clears clinging on. Why this timing? Cloudy trichomes → peak THC, most psychoactive potency. Amber trichomes → oxidized cannabinoids, deeper body stone, slightly less heady. Clear trichomes → undeveloped, lighter high, harsher burn. By cutting at ~75 % cloudy, we captured the perfect balance between energy and depth—a clean, full-spectrum effect with robust THC, trace CBD, and terpenes locked in their prime. Inside each trichome lives a micro-world of medicine: Cannabinoids (THC, CBD, CBG)—psychoactive and therapeutic agents. Terpenes (myrcene, limonene, caryophyllene)—aroma, flavor, entourage synergy. Flavonoids & esters—color, nuance, antioxidant value. It’s chemistry turned art—and when viewed through the macro lens, pure alien beauty. 🌸 The Harvest — Dense, Loud, and Sticky Both plants produced compact, heavy colas. Pheno #1: 162 g of dry, aromatic medicine. Pheno #2: 129 g—smaller, but louder in terps. Together: 291 g total of crystal-coated Mango Kush bliss. The smell? Explosive. Sweet mango and creamy Kush so strong that, without carbon filters, the neighborhood would know. 😂 And those buds—dense like stone, sparkling like snow. Trimming gloves glued with resin. Even the scissors felt high. 🌬️ Dry & Cure — The 60/60 Philosophy We dried the full plants slowly: 60 °F (15.5 °C) and 60 % RH for 14 days. Why 60/60? Because slow drying preserves volatile terpenes and ensures chlorophyll breakdown. Quick drying bakes the aroma; slow drying matures it. The science is simple: lower temperature = less terpene loss, stable humidity = even drying. After the dry, we hand-trimmed every flower using a trim-bin, collecting a rich layer of kief—a golden powder of pure cannabinoids and terpenes. 🔥 Old-School Touch — Hash & Extracts The kief was gently pressed using only hot water, glass, and hand pressure— we also did some old-school charas way. No machinery, no shortcuts. Just heat, touch, and patience. From this we crafted a small hash bar—soft, aromatic, pure. We also explored extractions with BHO/Rosin, carefully purging over three weeks until perfectly stable. Both concentrates now rest in the fridge—preserved at low temperature, rich in flavor and medicinal potential. 💨 Smoke Report — Smooth, Sweet, and Deep The first taste is soft and silky. Mango sweetness rolls in, followed by that earthy Kush finish. Inhale: Fruity and fresh. Exhale: Creamy, grounding, slightly spicy. Effect: Uplifting at first, melting into a serene, full-body calm. The smoke is gentle on the throat, rich in vapor, and incredibly aromatic. This is medicine that heals both mind and mood. 💡 Gear & Ecosystem Our ecosystem blended art and technology: TrolMaster Tent-X + WCS sensors → precise moisture, EC, and temperature tracking. Lighting: ThinkGrow Model One, ICL-300s, Future of Grow Black Series 600W, Lumatek Zeus 465W. Automation: TrolMaster ecosystem controlling airflow, CO₂, and environmental harmony. It wasn’t just a grow—it was an orchestra. 🔄 Full Journey Recap Seed Stage: Aptus Start Booster, delicate beginnings. Veg: Strong structure, lush growth under perfect PPFD balance. Pre-Flower: 12/12 flip; phenos diverged but thrived. Flower Weeks 1–4: Structure building, light & nutrient tuning. Flower Weeks 5–7: Trichomes exploding, aroma maturing. Week 8 Harvest: Mission complete—patience rewarded. 🙏 Gratitude To the community—thank you for growing, reading, laughing, and learning with us. To the sponsors—Aptus Holland, TrolMaster, ThinkGrow LED, Future Of Grow, Plagron, Zamnesia—thank you for the tools that make the magic.

Grow Diaries’ calendar system can be tricky, so we’re uniting both here—and they’ll remain side by side through the next reports: Harvest, Dry, Trim, Cure, and Smoke Review. Transparency matters; the story deserves to be whole. 💚

Día 86 (01/01/2024) Riego solo con H2O con pH ajustado 6,21 Día 87 (02/01/2024) Avanzando hacia la cosecha. Observo algunos tricomas ámbar 😁 Día 88 (03/01/2024) Al inspeccionar y tocar los cogollos, vuelven a salir los aromas a skunk y naranjas. Delicioso! 😍 Día 89 (04/01/2024) El aroma se está volviendo complejo en esta recta final, como naranjas, skunk y con toques picantes de fondo. Impresionante 😍 Día 90 (05/01/2024) Mañana la cosecha! Hoy le tocaría riego, pero como mañana es la cosecha, la dejo con 24 horas de estrés hídrico. Día 91 (06/01/2024) Al final cosecharé un día más tarde. Los tricomas están prácticamente perfectos, con la mayoría nublados y alguno ámbar Día 92 (07/01/2024) Día de la cosecha! 😍💥💨😁 Peso húmedo 150 Increíble rendimiento para 92 días desde semilla, y con el estrés hídrico de los dos últimos días Ahora comenzamos el proceso de secado (7-10 días) donde pondré la semana de la cosecha, y posterior curado (+30 días), tras lo que tendremos el informe de humo Gracias a todos los que estais al otro lado de este diario!

These are doing awesome! We have had a little bit of a change in the weather in the last week, the nights have gotten nice and cool, and the days are still quite warm. We have also had a few showers this week which they seem to have loved. We are at about 13.5 hours of sunlight a day, and cute little buds are forming quickly. These smell peppery, sharp and sweet. One of these babes has reached 7 ft from the ground; the others are between 6.5 and 7 ft aswell. We heavily defoliated these giants today. These ladies continue to impress me as we move slowly toward the autumn equinox; and into the harvest season 🌾

Grow Diary – The Great Migration 🌱 After a journey longer than a seedling’s first root, the ladies have finally moved into their forever homes. Yes, the final pots. The promised land. The retirement villa. That said… they’re currently still sitting in a cozy little buffer zone of light mix. Why? Because the Brotanics living soil underneath is thicc and I’m not trying to traumatize them with nutrients like it’s boot camp. We ease into things around here. Gentle introductions. Slow handshakes. Roots will eventually venture down into the living soil buffet when they feel brave enough. Until then, no pressure. To keep stress levels low and vibes high, the whole setup is now running on full automatic watering. Living soil stays mostly moist, plants stay mostly happy, and I stay mostly hands-off pretending this was the plan all along. Now we wait, watch, and hope for the best

I’m feeding megacrop A+B full bloom +epsom+silica. Not much else to do. I expect the plant to be ready in 20 days, more or less. Last week I raised the light a little since I found damage on top leaves. I think I’ll change pot next growth. I’ve calculated that a bonsai style pot, bigger and shallower than my actual one, would contain at least 3 times the volume of medium. Day 64 - Damage is spreading on all small top leaves, I guess these were not frying because of lights. A full dose of megacrop it’s probably too much for a plant watered with a dripping system, I’ll keep than in mind for my next crop. Day 65 - Plant is drinking like crazy, yesterday it consumed much more than usual, almost 9 liters. I’m going refill the reservoir today with megacrop AB+epsom at 2/3 of the suggested dose.

Veg Week 4 Day 28 to 34 - 4/24 to 4/30 A lot more to talk about this week. It's time to start the AutoPot resevoir feed, 2nd Topping, and Wire Training I waited until I saw 3 new nodes of growth (day 29) and then I topped those branches back to the first node leaving a stump for the new nodes to grab as they swell in growth. The branches are quite more stretched than I am used to, so a break is required on the Y branches as they thicken up. I tried not to break the skin and used knitting needles to smash the branches where I wanted them to bend. All went well. I then used ties to the soil to hold them down while they turn back up to the lights. By the end of the week I moved the wire ties to anchor on the main stem instead of the soil Feed this week was a reservoir feed of 200ppm total before add-ins. I used 200ppm Veg concentrate mix (recipe week 2) and then added 1ml/gal of CaliMagic (General Hydroponics 1-0-0). I then also added 1ml/gal of CaliMagic (General Hydroponics 1-0-0) and ph balance this week was for 6.1 Feed plan next week will be a another ph decrease and nute increase. I will also Intro BloomMix - Intro AirDome Air Line - 3rd Top/Train Videos: Just an end of week spin

Well, another week has passed and the end of the second week has come and the pistils have already shown themselves and I continue watering with top crop bloom, first time testing this fertilizer and I'm only using two of them, top veg and top bloom, next cycle I'm going to use General Hydroponics fertilizers because I have a friend who uses them and he's having great results, I still want to talk to my friends about this strain because I think it hasn't grown as it should, but anyway we're studying to improve ourselves for the next ones, the rest is all experience for the next ones it grows. =D

This week was a good one . Stellar initial growth this round after upgrading lights & using homemade super soil. My 3 day old plants looked like 9 day old plants of my last run to give an idea . I watered for the first time since planting on 5/17 . I had to itch to test the runoff since it’d only take a sec right? All the ph’s came out almost 2 points lower than when they went in so I decided on a flush even though I’m using Dry amendments. Honestly I didn’t have the problem of fluctuating ph’s before I added that Peat Moss to my supersoil in hindsight I wish I would have just ordered 1 more 11lb brick of CoCo Coir . I had the idea that I may need to flush a day or two prior to watering when I noticed all my stems purple. I get it could be genetics but ALL of them where purple . Here today it is 1 full day since I flushed & all of the stems are now Green with the exception of my Runtz seedling. 3/17 will make day 7 for Runtz & #1 of the GDP 3/18 will make day 7 for Zkittlez & the 3 remaining GDP. I intended to transplant these ladies day 13 preferably into their forever homes of 3g fabric pots . Fingers crossed day 14 they’ll be ready to start some LST.
