Bienvenidos cultivadores de marihuana clandestinos, y también, a los que tienen la fortuna de no serlo!🖐️👨‍🌾 Séptima semana de cultivo, bastantes cosas que contar y pocas fuerzas para hacerlo, porque estoy con una gripe fuerte, pero voy a intentarlo... todo por la causa! A principios de semana hice un riego profundo con dos Bio preparados que inauguro con esta planta, son preparados que he mantenido en fermentación anaeróbica desde que los hice al principio de verano, los primeros 30-45 días la fermentación es violenta, después se ralentiza, y para mi, cuanto más tiempo tarde en abrirlo es mejor, porque la disolución de los nutrientes y minerales es mayor. Las Enzimas del pasto fermentado y los Microorganismos de Montaña (sólidos y líquidos) que uso como inóculo hacen todo el trabajo. Puedes ver este proceso de creación de mis Bio Fermentos desde el inicio aquí: https://growdiaries.com/diaries/134104-grow-journal-by-defharo/week/782852 - Bio Blood EM: Esta fórmula la he pensado para aplicar en etapas tempranas de crecimiento vegetativo, como materia prima nutritiva he usado sangre seca, que es muy rica en nitrógeno orgánico, las enzimas y los Microorganismos convierten esa proteína en aminoácidos, estos, son directamente asimilados por la planta. - Bio Mealfrass EM: Con la disolución de los nutrientes de este guano de gusano de la harina (NPKMg...) y mezclándolo con el anterior Bio preparado obtengo un fertilizante muy poderoso y al tiempo que riego, inoculo Microbiología al suelo. Antes del riego añadí una buena capa de mulch semi descompuesto y con mucha microbiología, este mulch contiene hojas, raíces y otros mulch rescatados de plantas cosechadas. Después de 6 días desde el riego se puede apreciar el crecimiento y fortalecimiento de la planta. Cuando toque el siguiente riego, añadire las primeras enmiendas secas y completaré la capa de mulch... me voy a la cama 🖐️ ============== Info de la cepa Mendo T: https://www.thehighchameleon.com/es/shop/mendo-t-6#attr=202 - 85% Indica, 15% Sativa. THC: 18%. Floración: 8 Semanas.

🌱 Week 1: The Journey Begins! 🌟 Hey Grow Fam! 🙌 We’re off to an epic start with our TrolMaster adventure, and I’m already feeling the love for the setup, the seeds, and the growth happening in the room! So, let’s dive right in and get into the details of this exciting week! 🌿 Germination Update: Our first Gorilla Melon seed from Fast Buds didn’t sprout, but no worries—round two was a success! 🦍🍈 The second seed has germinated and is looking full of potential. I’m throwing in a Sweet Seeds Papaya Zoap into the germination station too, so we’re keeping this exciting lineup going strong! Germination is such a key part of the journey, and having a healthy start is what it’s all about. 🔧 Room Build & TrolMaster Setup: The build is coming along beautifully, and I gotta say, the TrolMaster system is blowing my mind! Everything’s under control like magic 🎩✨, and the TM+ app? Wow, just wow. I mean, I can literally be in the bathroom and still keep an eye on the plants—check all the metrics, adjust settings, and fine-tune what I need, all from my phone! 😂💧 This level of control is next level. I’m loving how smooth and seamless it makes managing the room. The gear is just unreal, and seeing it all come together is truly something special. 🌱 Nutrition Talk: As for feeding, we’re starting light but smart! I’ve begun with 0.15ml of Regulator and 0.25ml of Startbooster per liter for now. I always believe in starting easy and ramping up as the plants develop. These early stages are crucial—balance is everything. For the time being, I feel this is more than enough to keep the babies happy and healthy. 🌿💧 The Regulator is working wonders in maintaining plant structure and health, while the Startbooster is fueling the early root and vegetative growth, laying down a solid foundation for the weeks to come. It’s about getting it right from the start—too much too early can be a killer. Keeping it steady with precision, that’s the goal! Big Shout-Outs: To the amazing team at @TrolMaster, @Fast_Buds, @Sweet_Seeds, @AptusHolland, and all the incredible sponsors—I’m beyond grateful for the support! 💚 And to my GrowDiaries fam and followers, you guys make this journey what it is—thank you for the love, and I’m so honored to have you along for this ride. 🙏 We’re just getting started, and I can’t wait to show you what’s next. Stay tuned for more updates, epic builds, gear reviews, and plenty of insight. Don’t forget to follow me on GrowDiaries, YouTube, and IG for exclusive content, and let’s make this grow the best one yet! 🌿🔥 Growers Love to All 💚💚💚 P.S.- A deep dive into the Full Spectrum Quantum Sensor (MBS-PAR): The Full Spectrum Quantum Sensor (MBS-PAR) is an essential tool for any serious grower looking to optimize their light environment. This sensor measures photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), which refers to the spectrum of light that plants actually use for photosynthesis—typically between 400 and 700 nanometers and more depending . What makes the MBS-PAR sensor special is its full spectrum capability, meaning it accurately detects not just visible light but also far-red and UV light—which are crucial for maximizing plant growth, development, and flowering. With this tool, I can monitor the exact intensity of light my plants are receiving, making sure they’re getting the optimal levels for every stage of growth. By using this sensor in my grow room, I’ll be able to ensure that the light distribution is uniform across the canopy. Plus, it allows me to fine-tune the light output from my ThinkGrow LED setup, ensuring my plants are thriving under the best conditions. Whether it’s increasing light during the vegetative phase or fine-tuning it for flowering, the MBS-PAR sensor helps me keep everything on point. And the best part? I can monitor it all through the TrolMaster app, ensuring I can make adjustments whenever needed—even if I’m not in the grow room! This level of precision means healthier plants, better yields, and maximum efficiency. It’s a game-changer for taking the guesswork out of lighting and getting closer to growing perfection! 🌱💡 Growers Love to All 💚💚💚

Onto her second round of flushing now, be down by Tuesday I think. Done better than I though she would give my the training, she said tiny and I wont get much off her at all but it's all good I just wanted to Get that structure with the mainline and further topping. Took it pretty well I think. Smells amazing by the way and go to one that real nice colouring 👌🏻 Buds aren't really compact or anything and there's a load o fox tailing but again it's all good 😁 Next entry will be the harvest

Day 79 - The start of week 12 and she’s coming towards the end of her life. Her leaves are all starting to fade and she’s almost completely milky but I want more amber so I’m thinking another 1-2 weeks and she’ll be ready. Until then she’ll get plain water and one more watering with Calimag and Sugardaddy to try and give her one last boost. Day 80 - Well this girl will probably get chopped this weekend. She’ll get one more drink of water with MagiCali and Sugardaddy tomorrow and she’ll dry out till chop. I wish I could get good trich pictures but just won’t work but she’s about 10% amber right now so at the rate she’s going, chop day will be sometime this weekend. Day 81 - She’s really starting to fade out now and getting more and more amber in her. I really wish the buds would fatten up a bit more but the ones that are there and there are plenty, are pretty damn dense so not complaining. I gave her one last watering with calimagic and Sugardaddy and might end up giving her one last plain watering before harvesting but either way she should be ready by the weekend. Day 82 - Nothing much to speak of today, she’s gonna get the chop this weekend, she’s got more and more ambers popping up so just gonna let her dry up now and most likely chop on Saturday. Day 84 - The end of week 12 and haven’t decided if I’m going to chop her today or tomorrow. I’ll decide a little later today but just got some last updated pictures and will update again once I chop.

D43. First day of seventh week, I finally took out all the blumat water lines to be able to level the canopies to better perform the next four weeks. The whole tent is full of little colas, especially the lazy seed that have the most tiny ones due to the slow growth plus that she was quite in the bottom until today but now she's finally receiving same light as her sisters 💪. Today I watered again after three days, soil tension went from 40 to over 200 before watering that probably mean from now on will be better to stick on watering every two days instead of three. Things are getting smelly and promising, this week I'll do another insecticide foliar spray and watering and hope for the best. Peace ☮️ D46. That's a lot of wild stuff going on in here and my little girls look happier than ever, all the fans around every cola turned deep purple and full of white all around and they smell so good. I just watered 10% of the pot capacity with neem oil, calmag, higrozyme and nutrients until EC 1.9 pH 6.1 so water tension came down from over 200 to over 40mbar, also foliar sprayed again with potassic soap, neem and phyretrine since some thrip are still messing around. Good news the lazy plant despite the little colas once started receiving same light as her sisters she strengthen production and color of the leaf, not so bad!

💩Holy Crap💩 That was so much fun , it's full on winter where I am and it kept me busy , and come on there's nothing like growing your own stuff. I had a blast as it's been at least over 10 years since my last indoor grow , and it was fun , I had used all of my old techniques and equipment and it worked out just fine , so I was glad I had a ruff idea of what to expect...... Final thoughts Gonna be honest about that grow , it should me just how far Genetics have come, 10 plus years ago before I stopped growing indoors , all we had was like lowrider auto and greenomatic auto and maybe few others but they were horrible...... but this auto produced quite well as expected it should with the size of my medium and my soil base and very little nutrients, which is what I had hoped for from the start , cause I didn't really know where to start in terms of Genetics as I have been out the game for awhile but I'm super glad with the results and some gratitude needs to be sent to CanukSeeds , they came through as it always starts and ends with elite Genetics👌 ........... I can't wait to start my next grow diary, so keep an eye out , there's gonna be more to come , I'm going to try some really interesting cultivars........ PS. Can anyone tell me this , back in the day like 2003-4-5-6 wasn't growdiaries.com just a private forum cause if memory serves me , I was among those lucky enough to find a community that did complete grow logs, fourm style, which is where I found my growmie and Mentor Franco Loga from Greenhouse seeds , RIP BUDDY 😃 CANT WAIT TO START MY NEXT GROW 👉I HAVE CREATED A PLACE FOR GROWMIES TO VISIT , SHOW OFF THERE GROWS , AND JUST HANG OUT .....👈 👉ALL YOU NEED IS TO JOIN THE GROWDIARIES DISCORD SERVER !!!!!!!!!!!👈 LINK IS 👉 https://discord.gg/zQmTHkbejs

Hello World, 🇬🇷 the previous week was pretty good regarding growth on all plants...the weather had been a bit strange but this did not affect my girls...Michelle is in the fourth week of flowering but this diary will be following the outdoor girls, who have reached 1 m in height...they are like beasts on the balcony...have a nice week...☠️ ====================================== WEEK 10:"BLACK PLANET" ☠️Day 65...💧it's too windy,I already lost another plant,an Amnesia Auto who got crashed by another pot because of the wind...my girls are doing fine,I watered them today with 3 L of pure water ph 6,3...Michelle has sone weird signs one one lower leaf,it's like cal deficiency...but it's only one leaf so I will pass it by... ☠️Day 66...Michelle has more destroyed leaves...I don't know what it is...I will add some bio bloom and see...looks more like cal issue...the other two girls are doing super...the wind has slowed down so they are sunbathing,taking it cool... ☠️Day 67...💧watering day...the temps have risen to 35°C...the girls are thirsty and hot...I removed some of Michelle's damaged leaves...I will wait and see if this spreads...it might be because of the small closet she spends her dark hours...no air circulation and too warm... ☠️Day 68...Michelle is very sick...the rust on her leaves have spreaded to almost all the plant...I think it's cal defeciency combined with high temps,37°C today...the other two girls have no problem so I am wondering what I can do with the sick girl...Can I give her cal mag or is it against the rules????? ☠️Day 70.. Michelle is dead,...she is like fried, rusty and ......dead......The damage has been done in a few days only..probably couldn't stand the heat wave and was lacking calcium...anyway,we go on we the other two girls...they seem fine...we will see...

So i had to take all my plants inside because i found bud rot on 2 of them & the weather wasn’t going to get any better, had to transform my bedroom into a grow room😂 & i have 2 more plants which i am going to finish next to a window.. The smaller plant to the right is a Northern light by zamnesiaseeds that has a seperate diary if you are interested! I really hope the bud rot doesn’t spread anymore & if anyone has any tips or tricks for that they are always welcome!

The plant on the left is starting to get lockout from issues with the autopot valve in that setup. It stays attached and working fine for about a month, and then eventually stops working and I open my tent to see water flooding the autopot. The flooding stays contained in the system thankfully, but destroyed my rootzone pH. The plant on the right is doing fine besides the heat.

Note: At time of writing the Runtz has had 2 weeks cure, will update the review and rate it after 2+ months cure. Hermied a bit, has very few seeds so not too bad. Growth review: - vigorous grower during veg - solid stretch - medium internode distance - small sized buds - lower buds not too airy - very easy/not fussy - medium amount of smell - 80+ days flower (12/12) in hydro DWC under full spectrum led - responded well to various lst techniques Ease of growth rating: 9/10 General note: --> For me personally this strain NEEDS a good cure and is not worth smoking yet... It has a bit of a citrus grassy (not hay) taste, with some 'special' fruity smells to it that remind a bit of grapes/cassis. When grinding/opening the curing pots there is a pretty dank heavy weed smell so I think the quality will come out after a few months of cure... In its current state not worth smoking for the taste or effect after 14 days cure. --> Currently the effect is not very strong, easy to handle and I need a lot to feel a bit. The effect lasts for short compared to the average strains I smoke. Should develop more character with a longer cure. Hash making notes: - water extraction of the trim yielded 16g of hash (45mc-220mc) - rosin has a bit too much of a weird spicy grassy taste which make it a bit unpleasant, waiting till the buds improve with cure to try again - rosin color at 80c is yellow/white/beige creamy waxy, with hard consistency - rosin color at 95c is golden with hard consistency

Greetings, fellow cultivators! Week 2 in the flower chronicles of our majestic Cherry Cola Auto is unfolding, and the botanical saga continues with astounding vibrancy. Our green queen, having transitioned seamlessly into the flowering stage, is unfurling her blossoms with an elegance that's truly mesmerizing. Last week, the anticipation for flowering reached its peak, and oh, what a sight to behold! The once-prominent bush has metamorphosed into a lush haven of blossoms. The topping technique from earlier weeks worked wonders, and the result is a dense and intricate network of bud sites, promising a bountiful harvest. The freedom granted to our Cherry Cola as we removed the training supports has allowed her to grow wild, like a botanical ballet of branches reaching for the heavens. The bushy bliss is a testament to the success of our training endeavors, creating a flourishing green symphony. Speaking of success, the decision to venture into topping during the vegetative phase is proving to be a game-changer. The multiple colas that have emerged are like a crown atop her green majesty, and I find myself in awe of the structural beauty it has introduced to the plant. In the nutrient department, the shift to P-Boost and Topbooster has been a key player in this unfolding floral tale. The phosphorus boost is working its magic, contributing to the formation of robust buds, while Topbooster continues to enhance the overall flowering response, promising an end product that's nothing short of spectacular. I can't help but marvel at the visual delight our Cherry Cola presents. Every day brings new growth, and the energy in the tent is palpable. It's not just a plant; it's a living masterpiece in constant evolution. As Week 2 in the flowering stage comes to a close, the Cherry Cola Auto stands as a testament to the joy of cultivation. Topping, training, and nurturing have led to this vibrant spectacle. Stay tuned, green enthusiasts, as the floral drama unfolds in the coming weeks! Genetics Cherry Cola Auto @Fast_Buds @fastbuds_genetics_official @fastbuds_official @fastbuds_espana Nutrition: @aptusholland @aptus_world @aptus_ Love, Care, and Attention: @dogdoctorofficial As always, thank you all for joining me on this journey, for your love, and for it all. My horticultural odyssey would never be the same without you. Your love and support are cherished, and I feel both honored and blessed to have you in my life
