Had to axe out the HPS as summer ambient temps are too high , so I lowered the SE5000 to 10 inch off the canopy and the girls have loved it , buds are getting way fat and are covered in mostly clear some cloudy trichs, temps now are 27 c or lower in day time with no HPS , running a dehumidifier at the intake that is able to drop the humidity by around 20% but unfortunately some days Iโ€™m fighting 85% -95% humidity keeping a high rate of air turnover and circulation fans is keeping them happy .. finish line in sight hopefully only another 2-3 weeks . The little GZ auto was ready to go in bags today after 2 weeks drying and final weight was 130g around 4 and half oz , it tastes pretty good , sticky to touch and kinda tastes like pink bubblegum , a touch harsh but still needs a few weeks cure .

Plants started growing very fast. 20 hours light a day and 140 ml water for 2 plants so 35 ml each plant. (70ml -35ml one plant- morning, and 70ml -35ml one plant evening). From Monday I will start giving 200ml water 100ml in the morning and then the rest in the evening. Ventilation almost 24 hours, They are getting bushy and the color looks healthy green. I am excited. Purple Punch ( the right one) does not have the smell but the Gelato Cookie D'ohpe started smelling from the 3rd week, it is not strong, it is smooth, enjoyable. I still use trigger spray but I stopped triggering directly on the plant to avoid any fungee or toxicity, I just keep the soil moist. I surrounded them with kitchen foil around the lamp to have a more effective light. It reflects the light and the light goes everywhere. This step has been done because I have only the 60w LED each plant so I try to provide the maximum strength this way, and by keeping close distance also. The lamp is not hot so it ain't gonna burn the plant I had checked it before. I just purchased today a 600w LED because these plants look so good so I wanna provide the best circumstances for them. 4th-week 4th day I a just waiting for my delivery my 600 W grow LED light will come. From today I started watering with 50ml each plant 2 times a day so all together 200ml a day. Plus I always use trigger spray for the soil to be kept wet. They are looking better and better. Nice color and bushy appearance. Wonderful. I realized some holes on the Gelato Cookie D'ohpe's leaf but there is no insect I was checking. I do not really know the reason for that. Tonight I will set up the new 600 W LED so I am changing the current 120W. Big Step forward! It is not that easy that I thought, the lamp is great but the temperature raised up a lot, so needed to buy a fan also and the humidity went down. It is not easy to find the proper solution to be acceptable, good temperature and humidity at the same time. So I decided to program a 6/2 schedule, so 6 hours light on and the fan always with 15 min more, and 2 hours off so I do provide 18 hours light and 6 hours darkness but it is divided. The plants can rest after every six hours and use the energy they received. Last day of the 4th week, LST has been done with the Gelato Cookie D'ohpe, both are growing rapidly, let's see what the 5th week brings! End of he week Gelato Cookie D'ohpe is 25cm, Purple Punch is 20cm๐Ÿ˜‡

I'm just getting around to uploading for the week of 9/5 Unfortunately I haven't had the time that I hoped I would when I made the video, but I'm glad I made it so I don't have to remember everything๐Ÿ˜ต Went in and defoliated inner branches Top dressed with Down to Earth Minerals 4-4-4, Good Girl got about a cup (as did all the other photoperiods) but Problem Child got 2 since she's such a heavy feeder. I decided to do a granular because of how much rain we've been getting, I really don't need to water and I didn't want to swamp them. And it also saves time. Problem Child is continuing to improve and Good Girl is flowering like a champ.

08.09.25 the first week of September was a mix of sun and clouds on the balcony. The seedsman strains continue their road to frosty flowers and the quick sherbets now also join in the tracks. Repeated H2O2 Spraying didn't fight the powdery mildew on the Sherbets enough for me to let it go, I'll get some hardware store product to have tried everything in time instead of yapping afterwards. Also I applied 100g of flower fertilizer as top dressing. Thanks to Bavarian Krauts for hooking me up with this cheaper alternative to the greenhouse feeding line, it performed very nice on the first half of flowering, now this is the dose for the last chapter of 2025 making sure nutrients last to the end of the season. There are still leaves turning yellow on the flowering plants but the amount has come down and the overall structure now seems ready to support the buds and give them good direct light as well.

Hi guys, At the end of the story, I am very happy with the whole cycle and finally the outcome, I almost killed everything in there ๐Ÿ˜‚ The Black D.O.G is a great Indica dominant strain, with a short flowering period. I did have problems throughout the cycle overfertilizing the plant, even though, this strain in particular is the one that recovered better and gave me a precious final product. Iinfact, I kept almost all the flowers, just the super baby pop-corn went for bubble hash. I topped them, and then practiced LST training to help them growing wider. Probably if I wouldnt have messed up with the ferilizer I would have a much better final product, this time, talking about quantity and quality. The whole plants were dried for 18 days after which they were finished in jars for another 6 weeks, if I dont fell sooner. Really looking forward to grow this strain again Indoor, I'am amazed by the terpene profile and the amount of resin they produced, even under my terribles mistake! STRONG GENETIC! I would like to thank Grow Diaries for this amazingly-organized community they have created, where we all can learn a lot, and share something we really love. Thanks to everyone who stopped by and looked at the diary, squeezed the like button or comment the diary. 13/12 I'VE MADE MY FIRST RUN OF BUBBLE HASH! Very very happy with the end result, did not weight anything yet because is still wet big time, I lightly squeezed it a bit, before let it drying on parchment on a cardboard. The smell it's just absolutely crazy. I can smell strong citrus notes in the 120ยตm but the 90ยตm and 73ยตm explodes with crazy-sweet note. While the 25ยตm (did not use the 43ยตm) where I did collect most of the hash, smell like good and sweet hash, nothing crazy like the previous ones but a very buttery like consistency that makes me want to eat it like this...dont ask me why...even though I know you all probably felt this way too... Anyway, the paper sheet says it all about timing, washes and ยตm used for the extractions, but just in case I'll explain it down here. I have done 3 wash with different timing. 1ยบ wash: 5 min only to get the most brittle trichome heads 2ยบ wash: 10 min stardard 3ยบ wash: 30 min to stock up a bit ๐Ÿ˜… I could have done an extra wash for sure and get more out, but I was running out of time so...I will update with the dry weight, it was not the only wash I've done, that were just too many grades to weight up..so I chose to do it once all dry! See you really soon with on the nex run pals!

Sorry for the delay guys been a shit week for the most part. I took these pics before I left on Friday and a quick video. I planned to come back on sunday get some good pics and harvest but broke my clavicle saturday in 2 places and now I'm gunna be scramblin the next 6 to 8 weeks n be extremely limited. I'll do my best but it's my right side and I'm a firm righty, lefty is like speaking Japanese for me. Threw in a pic so you guys know I'm not a faker like my uncle raymus. Anyways I wont speak of it again after this weeks updates.. I like this one. It completely blacked out even with higher temps than I typically have. The pistils just accentuate the buds if that's even a word their so bright vibrant orange on top of these black and purple nugs irs pretty cool lookin. It has a sharp chemical smell to it it's difficult to describe. I'm pretty confident a bigger pot would have resulted in more roots and bigger fruits so even though the buds arent tiny they could have definitely packed it on a little more but well chalk it up to grower error. If I grew it again I would either flip it earlier or throw it in a 5 gal. I hope to chop it tonight if I dont have to get surgery today and will update the harvest as soon as possible. Good shit by Ripper

Week 3 for the solo is officially complete. She's been growing with no trouble. Root development has been excellent. As you can see, I decided to mainline. Seeing as she's in a solo cup, I'm not too worried about stunting. I'm horrible at measuring the water intake, but the cup needs to be watered daily. It's as lite as a feather everyday.

Day 67: Increase in flower size phrase has been finished now they about to go into the mature phrase. I will eighter flower them for 1 or 2 weeks depending on how it goes. Might only give them water with enzymen,regulator and humic for now on, that Is basicly flushing ( ec 0.7 ). or Ill just slightly feed them( ec 1.4-1.6) for a few times before I start flushing them( ec 0.7). Again I took the pictures before doing work on them ( watering and defoliation), so they look a little sad. I did notice that many of them got burned tips, indicating that they get more nutrients then needed. It does make sence since In this week and weeks to come, they need less nutrients and having a harder time taking it. Yet they do drink everything in 1.5-2 days, so they still do like to get nutes. Thats all for this week.

Hoping that this week will not be a tennis match with my PH and my nutrient solution. Last week I saw my solution drop a full point in a matter of hours - consistently. I also ditched the PH up/down dosers crutch two grows ago, and I am not missing it as the intel is far better without them. IMO PH dosers do not give you real-time feeding feel from your plant - yet they adjust your PH to the "Perfect" level. Less is more in this craft, and in more ways than not. There is a balance between technology, automation, efficiency and most importantly - humans. If we removed the human element out of a grow, the product will be inferior, right? - trichome check showed mostly cloudy, with a few random amber if one looks hard enough. Sheโ€™s ripening nice and reservoir running fairly normal for late flower. Wonder if that zero water filters-gone-bad caused my major PH crashes. Fed her KookBloom dry only this week and now in a 2 day flush. Should be about 10% amber.

Unfortunately, I've let the Chaos Cake become too dry due to the fungus gnats, I had watered it too much, and afterwards, I just got a huge increase in the amount of fungus gnats. So, I thought it was best to let it dry out for a while. I think, however, I might have left it a little bit too long because it was incredibly dry. So when I watered it, it actually made the plant fall over. So I've had to prop it up with some metal garden pegs. Hopefully, she'll rectify herself if I make sure that the medium is properly. Watered. Other than that, the plant is doing well. Hopefully, she'll start becoming a little bit more sturdy next week! ๐Ÿ˜… I have added an additional 100Watt UVA/UVB lamp, as the uppermost canopy of Acapulco Gold is blocking pretty much everything in the tent. Hopefully, this will aid the shorter plants in surviving until I can harvest it. There will be so much more space and lighting. Can't wait! ๐Ÿ˜… Here is what I did this week. 28.9.25: I watered with 1.5L of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.2 with; ๐Ÿ’œ Sea K .5TSP ๐Ÿ’œ Biosys .5TSP PH: 6.2 PPM: 565 The fungus gnats have really increased since I did a watering of the whole tent. I have some more sticky traps set out, and I will not water for several days. Once it has dried the top soil, I will add some more Diatomaceous Earth to the top 5cm. Thanks for checking in this week, and see you in the comments ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ˜

So the end is here. Its time, only damage from this point on, in this case.. I chopped her. She is hanging... strong pine smell with a little lemon. Not my favorite that's for sure.
