Week 14 marks not only the completion of the first week of flowering but also a remarkable stretch in the growth of my green companions. It's like they've hit a growth spurt of epic proportions, reaching for the stars with leafy determination. They're like botanical skyscrapers, standing tall and proud in their green kingdom. Each week, these plants become more beautiful, like nature's own masterpiece unfolding before my eyes. The best part? There's no more discoloration on the leaves, and they're gobbling up nutrients without any negative side effects. It's like they've discovered the fountain of leafy youth, and they're thriving like never before. But amidst the leafy triumphs, there's a slight hiccup in the form of temperature. Throughout the day, the temperatures can reach a toasty 83 degrees. I have a Vivosun controller that's supposed to kick in the exhaust at 79 degrees, but it seems to be struggling to keep up. Looks like it's time to bring in the big guns and get an AC unit for my green haven. As I reflect on the journey so far, I can't help but feel a sense of awe and gratitude for these amazing plants. They've taught me patience, perseverance, and the true beauty of nature's artistry. Here's to Week 14 – a week of stretching, flowering, and the promise of a bountiful harvest. Cheers to my green companions – may they continue to grow and thrive in their leafy paradise! 🌿

Fast Buds has been very kind in extending me the opportunity to try our their new strain C.A. There's not a lot of information out there about this strain yet, other than it is supposed to be indica dominant. No solid leads on the name that I have found. I'd going with a guess of Cali Airlines for now (though I suspect this may be a CBD strain). Put the seed straight into the soil in the final container (3 gal grow bag) on March 3rd. I'll spray the top of the soil once a day until I see the sprout appear. Then I'll let the tap root do its thing and find the water below in the soil. The soil was watered heavily 2 days before planting the seed, then left in the tent to get the soil to temperature. My Perpetual Harvest strategy…. Originally my plan was to start 2 seeds each month, but had some seeds from one breeder that did not germinate early in my rotation. Ultimately, this caused single seeds to pop and messed up my 2 at a time plans. But, that seemed to work out OK, because now I think starting one seed every 3 weeks is a better strategy. This should provide me with 4-5 plants at a time, instead of 6. However… Since Fast Buds has been kind enough to allow me to preview their new CC and CA strains I am now going to be starting a new seed every 2 weeks. This should allow me to get all of the plants I want to grow this season in the perpetual harvest rotation. I need to shut down over the summer because my tent is currently in the attic. Plants get fed once weekly on weekends. Seedlings get water only. Plants in vegetation get water and Recharge. Flowering plants get water, Recharge or Big Bloom (Fox Farm). Feeding is done using 2 gallon watering can. Any additional waterings during the week are given on an as needed basis per plant. I lift the plants to help determine which plants are more dry (lighter) and provide water as needed. I give each pot a quarter turn every day in an effort to make sure the plants get equal lighting from all sides. I rotate the plant in place by turning the pot 90 degrees (I am not rearranging the layout of the plants in the tent on a daily basis). The soil is an ‘organic super soil’ I mixed myself using organic top soil, organic potting soil, organic compost, organic peat moss, organic perlite, organic vermiculite, lime, epsom salt, expanded clay pellets and Jobe’s organic fast start. I am also recycling my soil and water with Recharge when using recycled soil. For plant training I have tried a variety of things, but my plans now are to do LST bending only, no HST anymore. I may decide to go back to HST again in the future, but I’m curious to compare LST training only to see how that goes. Around 3 week I'll do a FIM cut/pinch once there are 4-5 nodes established. And some defoliation around the 3rd week of flowering. I have been doing HST bending and having good results, but think the HST may be causing the plants to take longer to harvest. I hope LST only will help increase harvests while getting me to harvest sooner. Setup: 1- Grow Tent 24”x48”x72” 2- Viparspectra 300W LED’s (1-V300 & 1-R300) 1- Hanging 100w CFL (26w actual) 1- Carbon Filter w/ 190cfm Fan & 4” ducts 1- 6” clip-on fan 1- 700w electric heater - oil filled radiator (in front of air intake behind tent)

Week 1 27/01/2025 TF and MS Feed HydroSol: Increased to 8ml/5L 28/01/2025 TF and MS Light Increased: 313watts DLi: 35 Rapid Growth has started again. Feed Increased: HydroSol 10ml/5L HP 12%: 1ml/5L Uploaded today's pictures and yesterday's for comparison on how HydroSol is doing? I topped MS. Hopefully by doing this now TF will catch up but that's not why I topped her. She's known for being bushy; so will be good to bring her up to her second level before branching. Giving the rate she is growing; we haven't to worry about stunting Growth. H202 is also know to to cause mutations at high levels. I tried to start this diary with HP 12% from seed and it worked until micro-organisms in the air and water; what distillation has missed the "vocs" the cardon didn't catch. Caused them to later on because of free radicals and this is why high levels of HP can cause mutations and cancer when it steals atoms by ripping them apart. "Call the bomb swaddles" when mixed correctly or 'incorrectly 💣 lol 28th Today Little VT of the 5L jerry can starter pots (DiY) I think this process is allowing for optimization of Air/feed pks. I'm at least 2-3weeks ahead from a normal grow because of this style growing. I know, I know, I lost 3weeks from the first failed attempts. But it's okay 👍 I'm okay with that. Now I know and it's logged in the dairy for future reference I can quickly glance over before I start another one. Like hey 👋 "Time is valuable, read ya diaries" honestly, I don't have dementia i have human forgetfulness/error. Its still in the experimentental phase. Took tf out the propagator 31/01/2024 Nothing much to see I've did everything for TF and still looking droopy. Exactly the same as MS. I think she'll grow out of it! 01/02/2025 I know, I know what ya thinking, it looks like spider mites on MS only leaf but honestly I think its of the h202. I deffolled her only leaf. Sprayed it with h202 and no reactions happen. No mites. The Future TF is looking much more lively. Oh well. No speed-run this time round! I shouldn't of took 4wks off from growing. Rhythmic nature of thing and getting in the swing off it. It's easy to do but I am always in two minds with everything I do. I can't help but cause "Self sabotage' every time I get to ahead of myself, by running my mouth 💯 blah blah blah; always beside myself. Aye' they say "God is next to Cleanliness" if that's true it'll be impossible for me to be beside myself haha 😄 Its all fun and games 🎮 🙃 01/02/2025 Midday Light Increased: 560watts (max) for this power supply. I disconnected the 1200watts one for each light is 600watts. It's currently half-power with 600watts max for two lights at 300watts each. Better than having mishaps with the full power supply 1200 being turned up accidently say in a not ventilated enough little tent. I'd rather pass on that anxiety 🙃 Plants: Under jerry cans with dli at 20. This should by dinfintion let them gather themselves for 3days; while the sun is blazing outside the can. Even though I could lower the light. I think the high light intensity outside the cans the plants know. Midday VT MS looks likes shes a clone 😳 👀 but she ain't! One day I will get these protocols right. But atm ; atlas, it's all in jest n fun! MS defiantly looks like a clone but she's not; i have taken pictures since she hatched everyday 03/02/2025 Midday Freaky Pablo and The future 2 germinated Sprayed with weak solution of Hydroclonic Acid + h202 very mild. Now the fun begins!

V8, supuestamente hoy haría transplante a los maceteros definitivos, pero, hace 3 días que las plantas están presentando hojas débiles y dobladas hacia abajo, en un principio pensé en que podría ser exceso de agua, pero creo que es exceso de nutrientes, básicamente exceso de nitrógeno, ya que las hojas están con un verde muy oscuro y algunas están presentando manchas color café. Así que hoy les hice lavado de raíz, con agua EC 0, hasta que el drenaje fue de cercano a 4 EC. Esperaré unos días a ver si se recuperan, si no, simplemente las eliminaré y empezaré de nuevo, ojalá se recuperen. V9, al final si era exceso de nutrientes/nitrógeno, menos mal que se recuperaron con el lavado de raíces, pensé que morirían, ahora veré como siguen para decidir si hago transplante hoy mismo. V10, se realizó trasplante a macetas definitivas y un riego suave. Las plantas están todavía en recuperación, esperaré unos días más para empezar el LST. V12, riego. V13, se realizó una pequeña defoliación y LST.

DWC about to explode in growth and can’t flip the light just yet, another two weeks will require plenty of pruning to keep her manageable in the small 2x3’. Coco Coir Week 1 of 12/12 she’s remained the shortest of the bunch with fat fan leaves should be solid nugs on this one.

~ GG4 SHERBET FAST FLOWER by FastBuds ~ Well fam, here we go again with another epic strain from FastBuds Fast Flowering stable. After having such tremendous success growing their Gorilla Cookies Fast Flower outdoors last year, I've decided to run another of their fast flowering strains outdoors this year... GG4 Sherbet Fast Flower! The best description of this awesome cultivar comes directly from my friends at FastBuds which is as follows: "Bred from extremely potent and flavorful Gorilla Glue and Orange Sherbet genetics, GG4 Sherbet FF (Fast-Flowering) takes all the best traits to the next level, offering a high-yielding strain that can produce up to 600 g/m2 in a 7-week flowering time. This super resilient Indica-leaning hybrid thrives indoors and outdoors, and in all types of climates while producing mouth-watering sweet, fruity, spicy and earthy terps that translate into a delicious sugary hazelnut aroma. Expect an extremely relaxing and overall happy effect that’ll leave you with a huge smile from ear to ear. It’s the perfect strain for growers of all levels of experience seeking low-maintenance yet highly productive photoperiod varieties that deliver quality and quantity without extra effort. GG4 Sherbet FF grows chunky buds with long dark orange hairs and spade-shaped calyxes that get encrusted with trichomes by harvest time, giving them a gorgeous silvery-white appearance. This medium-sized photoperiod can reach up to 200 cm in height and yields up to 650 g/m2 while developing that typical hybrid structure. GG4 Sherbet FF grows with a stocky, bushy appearance, developing one sturdy main cola and fat side branches that support huge yields without much effort. This super-fast variety produces distinctive light-green buds with a high bud-to-leaf ratio, making your trimming sessions a breeze. It’s a top-notch resin producer that doesn’t need much maintenance and will thrive in almost every climate, rewarding growers of all levels with extremely flavorful resin that makes for outstanding hash end extracts." ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: This is going to be an outdoor grow, but I have started the GG4 Sherbet Fast Flower indoors as our weather is still too cold to put her outside (nighttime temp's dipping regularly into the 30's℉). The plan is simple... let her grow inside under a 19/5 light schedule until the nighttime temperatures stay above the mid 40's℉, at which point she'll be moved outside and transplanted into the soil which I have already setup and inoculated with beneficial microbes, and then let the fun begin!🤪💚 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 7/9- Week FOURTEEN from seed and all I can say is... WOW!😍 I'm in 💞 with FastBuds GG4 Sherbet Fast Flower! This big girl, and I mean BIG, is approaching seven feet in height now and I'm hoping that she'll begin to transition into flower in the near future! Our summer weather continues to be hot, although we do get a break from the heat when we're lucky enough to get some rain which also helps mitigate the daily watering of the GG4 Sherbet FF. 7/11- Today my daily watering of the FastBuds GG4 Sherbet FF continues with 10g of straight well water from the garden hose. She continues to exhibit excellent vigor and resistance to pests. I have not used any Neem Oil on her for weeks now and even though I see a few leaf hoppers here and there, I see little to no damage from them.🤩👍 7/13- Today watering the GG4 Sherbet FF was postponed as it rained the better part of the day, which provided over an inch of much needed rain. 7/15- Our weather continues to be really hot with daytime temp's in the upper 90's Fahrenheit. If it does not rain I am watering everyday with 10g of well water. I will also be top dressing the FastBuds GG4 Sherbet Fast Flower next week in anticipation of her transitioning into flower! Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏

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.

6 Blütewoche: In der 6 Blütewoche habe ich bei zwei meiner Ladys Cal-Mag Mangelerscheinungen festgestellt, die ich mit jeweils 1.25 ml cal-mag Lösung in 1l Wasser gegeben habe. Ansonsten wachsen und gedeihen die hübschen, die Buds fangen an frostig zu werden, ich hoffe das in den letzten 2 Wochen der Blüte die Buds noch an Größe zunehmen. Ansonsten bin ich sehr gespannt wie sich die Ladys noch entwickeln werden. Ich werde euch auf den laufenden halten, viel Dank an euer Interesse. Bis next Week
