Hi Growmies, I'm excited to share some big news today! Although there have been some unexpected twists, it's all part of the incredible journey of gardening. I've just completed the harvest, a tad earlier than initially planned, due to finding a bit of mold in one of the buds. Despite this minor hiccup, the trichomes were already at a decent 10% to 15% amber. So, all things considered, the timing ended up being pretty spot-on. The harvested weight was a solid 609 grams after trimming, which is quite a feat! A lesson learned for next time: perhaps I let her grow a few too many buds, leading to a denser canopy than ideal. But on the bright side, the aroma is absolutely divine. I sampled an airy bud that had dried a bit, and wow, it packs a stronger punch than its clone mother. And the flavor? Pure, unadulterated cheese – no hint of pineapple here! Now, the anticipation builds for the final dry weight, which I should know in about 3-4 days. It's always exciting to see the fruits of our labor fully realized. A huge thanks to everyone who's been following along on this journey. Your interest and support mean the world. And now, the adventure continues! I've started on Epic Buzz by Anesia Seeds. The diary for this new chapter is up and running, and the seedlings have already sprouted, marking the beginning of another exciting phase. (https://growdiaries.com/diaries/185718-grow-journal-by-salokin) I can't wait to share more updates with you all. Here's to the continued growth and learning in our gardening adventures!

🗓️ 9° WEEK FLO // DAY 57-63 (from switch) // DAY 134-140 (from dry seed) 🌸 Below is a focus on the last four days of cultivation, my harvest routine: 🌸 [60° FLO] ⚡- Light: 30 cm / 250 watt; ⌛- Schedule: 12/12; 🌡️- 23° C - 65% RH average; 📑- PH 5.8 - EC 0.4; 🍔- Ripen is done after 10 day. Flush begins; 💧- 9° DWC change, 20 liters tap water in DWCs; 🌱- Phenotype #1 is showing spots on leaves, not a big issue at this point. Looking at the trichomes, phenotype #2 is ripening faster. [61° FLO] ⚡- Light: 30 cm / 250 watt; ⌛- Schedule: 12/12; 🌡️- 23° C - 65% RH average; 📑- PH 5.9 - EC 0.4; 💧- 10° DWC change, 10 liters fresh tap water in DWCs. 🌱- I cut a small branch from the #1, very frosty and shining! [62° FLO] ⌛- Schedule: 0/24; 🌙- Light off until Harvest; 🌡️- 18° C - 65% RH average; 📑- PH 5.8 - EC 0.4; 💧- 3° day flush. [63° FLO] - Harvest day ⌛- Schedule: 0/24; 🌙- 48 hours in dark done; 🌡️- 18° C - 65% RH average; 📑- PH 5.8 - EC 0.4; 💧- 4 days without nutrients in DWCs. I removed water 20 hours before the chop; 🌸- Trichomes: Phenotype #1: Milky 90% - Amber 10% / Phenotype #2: Milky 85% - Amber 15%. ✅ HARVEST - After 4 days flush and 2 days in the dark, I cut both plants on DAY 63 FLO; - Wet trim, removed fan leaves. 🔜- We are at the end and I am organizing my next two diaries, I really like this initial phase of organization and planning for the next four or five months. The "modus operandi" will be the same adopted in this cultivation, I will start with two very fast autoflowering plants and in the meantime I will give the two photoperiodic plants a long vegetative growth. I still have to decide on the strains, but I already have an idea. As far as the nutritional regime is concerned, there will be big changes, for the first time I will be using beneficial bacteria in my DWCs and anyone who has any advice on using them in this setup feel free to write to me and share some thoughts. 🆕- On week 15 I got the TrolMaster TCS-1 by @TrolMaster_Europe and I started to track my grow box data. I will add these info once I add the harvest week!

Arranca hoy 13/03/24 la tercera semana de crecimiento, en terminarla pasamos a floración, eso será el próximo miércoles día 20/03/24 De momento algunas con 17 cm otras con 22 cm y en general todas mostrando su 6º nudo. Se empezaron a germinar el día 09/02/24 llevan ya 33 días. *UPDATE* 19/03/24 Vemos las raíces de una de las Gush Mintz y hago defoliación antes de pasar a floración. He quitado las 4 primeras hojas que desarrolla la planta y entre 4 o 6 hojas grandes de las que tapan los brotes. Vamos a esperar 2 dias y las ponemos en floracion.

Starting 7 seeds, only six made it to the solo cups. ETHOS genetics seeds are ; Planet of the Grapes 55ind/45sat, Cotton Candy Grapes 70/30, Grape Diamonds 50/50, Apex Kush 90/10, and Skunk Hero x Afghgan Kush 100/0 ; DNA Genetics seed, Cataract Kush 99/1 Ind. dom.

MATARO BLUE by KANNABIA Week #10 Overall Week #9 Veg This week she's doing good no issues to record this week she's dealing with the heat well. Stay Growing!! Kannabia.com. MATARO BLUE

8-26 (Day 70)- Have the feeding corrected from last week now and everything has been pretty stable. Not had any real issues with the temps or RH, the dehumidifier is keeping things perfect. I have been checking the back left plant to see where the trichomes are and they are still all pretty much clear. That plant seems to be a bit ahead of the others, but will just continue to monitor and feed regularly (Around 4-5 gallons a day to the res). Monday will be switching to the full tilt instead of the bulky b. These girls are so sticky and sweet smelling. I am super excited for these girls to finish and see how I've done quality wise with my first grow and already looking forward to the next run and correcting some mistakes ive made this run. As always any tips and recommendations always welcome!

2 more weeks or thereabouts. 1 more blackstrap molasses tea. And then it's all Distilled going forward. Reservoir will be opened up 24/7 until emptied. Then top down flushing with aloe water for round 1 and distilled until finished.

All good;)))))

Really love a set of scales to keep track of weight too. pH and EC are both critical for thriving plant health, but temperature also plays a pivotal role in achieving optimal growth. It also happens to be the fundamental parameter that's most commonly overlooked. When you think about temperature in the context of a growing environment, you could be referring to the temperature of the air around the plants or you could also be referring to the temperature of nutrient solution or irrigation water, which will affect the root zone temperature. While air temperature is important, for the purposes of this piece, I'll be focusing on root zone temperature and its effect on nutrient uptake and overall plant health. That's because a plant's root system is the location of two essential chemical processes: water and nutrient absorption. In each of these processes, having the correct root zone temperature is paramount for these to occur efficiently. In a nutshell, root zone temperature will affect the rate at which your plants are able to absorb nutrients. If you let your root zone temperature remain unmonitored and uncontrolled, this could lead to disastrous effects on your overall crop yield. Nutrient absorption is largely driven by chemical processes, which take place in your plants' roots; the efficacy of these processes is determined by the temperatures to which those roots are exposed. Once your root zone temperature moves out of its optimal range, the plant will not be able to deliver optimal levels of nutrients and water. Ideally, you should aim to have your nutrient solution or irrigation water temperature at around 18 – 22 °C (65 - 72 °F) to ensure optimal nutrient and water uptake. In addition to having an effect on nutrient absorption, your root zone temperature also affects oxygen availability and solubility. If your water is too warm, you could risk starving your roots of oxygen as warm water cannot hold as much dissolved oxygen as colder water. On the other hand, if your water is too cold, this could shock your plant roots, decrease plant metabolic rates, and stunt plant growth. Peace out.

So I've switched to the big bloom fertilizer from fox farm. Staying with the same amount and feeding schedule on both plants. But I will only be recording plant ones progress from here on out. I can see where quite a few bud nodules have formed. I've started every other day to slowly remove all the large fan leaves on the plant. I want all the new nutrients from the new fertilizer to go to the nodule spots instead of in the fans. So far I think it's looking really good at this age.

Checked the trichomes and still are looking clear. Thinking the latest ill harvest is August 30 but it could be sooner, just need to see how it goes. Had a hot week of weather in 80s-90s gonna be in the 70-80 range the next 10 days or so.

👨‍💚🌴 Grower HageWeed is delighted to introduce his🌴💚👨‍ ⚜️👑🌱 Autumn Cup Contest by Royal Queen Seeds 🌱👑⚜️ 💚🏁✅⚜️🏆🏅Today, 2nd October, I received the Royal Queen Seed package. I was just expecting seeds and a lighter with their nutrients, but instead a roundup of very interesting stuff arrived. Hemp papers, normal, clipper signed royal queen seed, a magazine I can't wait to read, nutrients, stickers, a complete catalog with the new genetics, a Zamnesia booklet, 5 seeds Honey Cream fast flowering, a door joint (which I have photographed several times, I already love it, my walking joint will no longer suffer from the long walks in my pocket waiting to be consumed), grinder, fabric vase that I really like at the sight, and the starter kit for germination. Due to the current lack of space to germinate, I dipped 2 seeds in water, (I started with one but it seemed to suffer from loneliness: D). I can't wait for them to start growing, I'm very excited to be able to participate in a contest. Stay tuned: D 🏅🏆⚜️✅🏁💚 ➡️04/10 Yesterday, examining the packet of seeds carefully, I noticed that one of them seemed split, and so it really was. I put it directly in the jar covering it with plastic wrap hoping it will grow anyway. Should it be born we have 3 honey cream seeds: D On one of the two seeds 2 mm of radicle begin to be seen, the other still shows no sign of opening but we are not in a hurry: D ➡️05/10 Today the root of the second seed has also begun to emerge: D we continue to wait impatiently: D ➡️06/10 Very well, both seeds are coming out well. probably tomorrow they will be put in the jiffy. I have great things in mind for these two seeds: D Come on, grow up !!! ➡️07/10 Today these sweets have lengthened the radicle a little, just enough to win a place inside the jiffy. The broken seed I put in the jar also seems to have taken root, but we'll find out more in the coming days. With one of the two suits I will start a solo cup diary, even if I am out of time for the contest. It will especially help me to better understand how to manage plants in different situations. Well so, Yeah! .➡️08/10 We are already two centimeters away. Even the broken seed seems to want to get out but we wait patiently. Well so, Yeah! ➡️09/10 Today I helped the leaves to free themselves from the seed, as soon as I see some roots, they will be moved to the final pot without too many transplants. Today I also start counting the days. Day 1 from the emergence started. Well so, Yeah! ➡️10/10 Tomorrow the jiffy will be moved to the 11 l pot of royal queen seeds: D can't wait. The one in the jar doesn't seem to have caught, too bad :( the sprout is about 3 centimeters high. Well so, Yeah! ➡️11/10 Today this sweetness has been poured into its final jar, positioned near the rim for a future LST. I added 1l of corrected water to the new pot, away from where I put the seedling. Unfortunately, the broken seed didn't make it. ➡️12/10 Everything is OK. I will try to take 2 photos every day, horizontal and vertical, then I will see the results: D ➡️13/10 Wet with 0.4 of fertilized water vegetative pattern, today is the first 12/12 light day. Well so, Yeah! ➡️14/10 Nothing to report today, Well so, Yeah! ➡️15/10 The humidity gizmo says it's still pretty wet at the bottom, I'll wait to irrigate. Well so, Yeah!

Week 8 in the books, cruising to the finish line two more hard watering each and 48 hrs of darkness starting Friday. Genetics: Natty Roots Seed Co Instagram: @green_house_lab

Everything was fine. So I started to bath each pot by using a fermentation nutrient by using beneficial bacteria, mycobacteria, some Orgatrex, different mycorrhiza's as 36 hours fermented potions with 2 liters/pot. Oh I forget to tell You, as You can see in the Video the water drops 💦 on the surfaces of their leafs @ day 23 I used Boom Boom Spray too for preparing the next stage of powerful photosynthesis by raising up my SanLights @ 300 µmol/m² s. Second video was @ day 26. I raised up a little natural CO2 from 450 ppm to 550 ppm. So they were prepared for more powerful photosynthesis coming up the next days… Critical Orange Punch and Amnesia Zkittlez showed some typical nutritional sensitivities some phenotypes of Sativa dominated strains can show @ the way to powering up the system. Light tops on the head of the leaf area. But again: “Don’t panic, it’s organic.” Also @ day 26 I started with my preferred technique of LST by mainly just pull down a little, the biggest fan leafs, so the little Life-hungry drives were able to came through and got enough homogeneous ppfd for uniform growth rate too.
