Week 7 is over. They are more than ready for flowering. In 3-4 days I'll have free bloom tent and will transfer them there and flip to 12/12. Most of them are doing very good - slight VPD issues but will be corrected. Strawberry Cough still the biggest even after double topping and bending. Still looks weak-ish though. Stems and branches are very flexible comparing to other plants. Grandpa's Cookies #6 are a failure. I'll see but I probably will discard it. It's very underdeveloped - small, slender, willowy. Leaves are still weird - it didn't grow out of it.

Hey yall, Temps were high, but under control now. My girls were droopy despite having moist soil. After a good compost tea they bounced right back. Pistol hairs are showing, haven't grown this specific cultivar before so the bud structure is a but different than others I am familiar with. Let's see what she does moving forward. I am not a super fan of these genetics. Already have new seeds I am ready to start once these ladies are done. Over all the Strawberry Diesel from Beaver Seeds is not a noob grow, you need to have your grow dialed in. And really be careful with PM. I am keeping humidity as low as I cam while still maintaining a decent VPD. Challenges with this strain definitely turns me off. Looking forward to a new cultivar, already have some genetics from Michigan, those cats are really something else, they are hellbent on being better than the West coast. And they are in my humble opinion 😌 ☺️ Pure Michigan looks good, also Honey Sticks Genetics out of Maine is killing it, their Bananaconda 4 tested over 40% total cannabinoids. They want like 3k per cut, so that won't be my next, but looking forward to new genetics nonetheless. Anyways made some new ferments, remember to use equal parts organic sugar, Jaggery is best, that is the closest form of sugar to the sugar cane plant. Cover with paper towel, 2 to 3 days later let gravity give you all that juice, don't squeeze it to get more. Keep that juice in the fridge, that is your food. Then add water to the solids and keep at room temperature for 3 months to make a vinegar. That is your cleanser. Ask questions please 🙏 Love to see others trying KNF, or simply put Natural Farming methods.

At the end of week 10 the 18 CANNALOPE HAZE plants from DNA-GENETICS are ready to harvest. The plants have all started to fade and get yellow leaves and hardly have any whit pistils anymore. I check the trichomes with a handheld microscope and see that they have all turned milky and some even amber...now is the PERFECT MOMENT to harvest them, they have reached PEAK-THC now. The colas on each plant are HUGE and COVERED IN TRICHOMES. A strong 'hazy' aroma is filling out the tent, its an earthy and mildly sweet smell, very enticing, I cant wait to try my medicine after its dry. The plants on the left side under the LUMATEK ZEUS 600W PRO are less uniform (=some are taller, some are smaller) and less compact than on the other side. The right side under the two SANlight Q6W-Gen.2 LED-lamps has grown more uniform (all plants have almost the same height) and with more compact buds. The trichome production was very good on both sides, the quality of the buds is OUTSTANDING!

Brand new here and my apologies as I'm actually on Week 5F at this time and have had to scour my journal, notes and photo's to catch this diary up to the present. Next run is 8 auto's( 2 FastBuds & 2 Seedsman) with 4 different strains so STAY TUNED! ...The babies are doing well with the exception that I had two Power Plant beans that failed to pop, third time was the charm which puts it roughly a week behind it's sista's. GSD is just hanging out desperately waiting for the little one's to catch up so she can flower as she's been vegging for 50 days already (I had her on a 19/4 light schedule with a Auto run that just finished). Temp's and RH good to go, daily light water right now with seaweed extract added @ 1tbs/gl.

Plants are doing fantastic, the Bruce Banner of course being the sativa dominant in the group is continuing to stretch during its flowering, as well by the look of the bud sites it looks like it’s going to be a decent yielder despite this being my first grow and not as properly cropping her the way I wanted. The smell is not as strong as it was a few weeks ago, as to be expected it will get strong again, struggling to keep the light a safe distance away from the plant, I don’t want to turn the amperage down because my other plants need the light as well. Going to continue updating it’s going to be a slow waiting month, and then about the first week of September we should be golden

Transplanted on last day of the week as the other 1 liter pot just didn’t hold water long enough. Add slow release palates, crushed bone meal and a bit of mycorrhizae.

08/11: La troisième semaine de floraison commence enfin on devrait les fleurs prendre forme. J'espère que le stretch est fini car elle est assez grande et doit laisser un peu de place au autres. 08/12: la troisième semaine débute sur une note un peu amer. Certaines feuilles se détériore à une vitesse folle, ainsi que des tâches brune. Premier réflexe GHE essential et cal-mag agent de Canna ce matin. Espérons que les prochains jours seront plus cool et que cela vas arranger mon problème. 08/13: après avoir fait plus de recherche je suis enfin tombé sur un article sur le blog de pevgrow et mon problème correspond en tout point à une carence en magnésium. Je devrais voir voir des améliorations dans les 4 à 7 jours. Et bien-sûr continuer à donner du calmag. Le problème viendrai du fait que je tourne en 24/7 avec les auto's enfin c'est ce que je pense après avoir croisé les conseils et avis des "growers" de GD et certains articles. 08/14: c'est dernier jours ont été intense pour moi, lors de mon premier diaries j'avais déjà eu le même problèmes avec une purplequeen auto à l'époque je n'avais pas de calmag... enfin tous ça pour dire merci à la communauté growdiaries.com qui m'a conseillé et supporter. Maintenant cela c'est stabilisé et n'atteint aucune autre feuilles, les nouvelles feuilles sont belles et viguoireuses. Me voilà rassurer et surtout j'ai encore appris de nouvelles chose sur la cannabiculture 😎😨🤓 08/15: elle a créée une belle masse de feuilles entre temps, je vais appliquer une grosse defoliation après le prochain engraissâge histoire d'être que les carences ne sont plus d'actualités. À part cela je me contente de couper deux feuilles par jours. #46 08/16: tout est rentré dans l'ordre ouF :D - la production de trichromes à bien commencé, une légère odeur typique à la weed qu'elle que soit la variété en début de flo. se dégage de la growbox. je suis enchanté! Maintenant j'epère que le switch d'engrais càd changer "BioBizz bloom/topmax" pour "Canna PK13-14/Boost Accelerator" vas lui plaire à la jolie dame #47 08/17: apres une de nuit de réflexion: arrosage/engraisser (canna calmag (.6ml/L)/BB blom-topMax (1.2ml/L chaqu'un)/ AN BigBud-BudCandy (1ml/L chaqu'un) ce matin. J'essayerai canna pk 13 14 et boost accelerator sur mon prochain plant. #48

. Vorwort: Die Pflanzen zeigen deutliche Mängel, was zum jetzigen Zeitpunkt erwartet wurde. Seit heute gibt es nur noch Wasser und natürlich PH reguliert, ca. 4-5 Liter, ohne Dünger. Weitere Mängel in den kommenden Tagen sind eingeplant und kein Grund zur Sorge. Die Ernte ist für nächsten Montag oder etwas später vorgesehen. 🌿 Woche 8 - Reifephase, Substanz vor Optik Ich, Banana Purple Punch, stehe am Ziel. Meine Blüten sind schwer und dicht, meine Energie ist vollständig in sie geflossen. Die Blätter lassen nach, Farben verblassen, aber das gehört dazu. Mein Duft ist voll entwickelt, süß und tief. Ich brauche nichts mehr außer Zeit. 🍌 Ich, Purple Haze, bleibe konstant bis zum Ende. Meine Struktur ist stabil, meine Blüten reifen gleichmäßig weiter. Die Mängel zeigen sich ruhig und kontrolliert. Mein Duft ist klar, würzig und präsent. Kein Drama, kein Einbruch. Wir beiden Lemon Cherry Cookies nähern uns auf unterschiedliche Weise dem Abschluss. Ich, die Schnellere, zeige deutliches Finish-Verhalten. Die Buds sind kompakt, die Mängel nehmen zu, die Energie geht sichtbar zurück. Mein Duft ist intensiv, süß-sauer und deutlich ausgeprägt. 🍋🍒 Und ich, die Ruhige, bleibe gelassen. Meine Entwicklung ist weiterhin gleichmäßig. Mängel sind vorhanden, aber ohne Stress. Ich nehme mir die Zeit, die ich brauche. Woche 8 fühlt sich nach Loslassen an. Kein Nachjustieren mehr, kein Eingreifen. Wasser, Licht und Geduld. Die Pflanzen bauen ab, um abzuschließen. Genau so ist es gedacht.

Vegetation Phase - Week 2 Shoutout to Cannapot, the Austrian plug who came through with the genetics from Humboldt Seed Company. The 10 Donutz plants are pushing through their second week of veg, and while the majority are thriving, a few challenges are starting to show — all part of the game when experimenting with new soil, pots, and nutrients. Updates & Adjustments: Lamp Adjustment: Raised the light to reduce stress and give the plants more breathing room as they stretch and develop. Watering: Keeping it relaxed and minimal with reverse osmosis (RO) water. No overwatering here — slow and steady wins the race. Nutrients: If deficiency will further ill add more fertilizer. Observations: 9/10 plants are growing steadily, with vibrant green leaves and visible progress in height and structure. 1 runt: One plant is struggling hard — stunted growth, ugly leaves, and generally looking like it’s fighting for its life. Still, it’s got a spot in the tent, and we’ll see if it can bounce back. Some minor issues spotted on a few plants, likely nutrient deficiencies as they adjust to the new setup. It’s not surprising, given the new gear and methods, but nothing alarming yet. Next Steps: Staying the course with low-stress management. Let the plants adjust to their environment and dial in any issues over time. The Donutz are strong genetics, so they’ll likely power through. Even the sickly one gets a chance — no plant left behind! This sea is still on track to make waves.

Aug 22 - plant fed yesterday a.m., then got rained-on ALL NIGHT - “week 2 Flower”, end of the week will see a Defoliation of sorts. Plant was Schwazzed re: 70% removal of Fan Leaves on day 1 of Flower. Targeting day 20 (we’re at 15) 23rd - plant grew 6cm, basically over-nite!!! Wow 25th - Microbe Tea brewing for tomorrow - Pistils are appearing… 26th - rain overnite, plant is “still”Dry-side of Medium, breakfast time; 1 gal. Posted above. - !!! Cali Crasher finally exceeded expectations and has surpassed the One Metre tall mark. Measured from the orig height, of the original soil via green wire for LST poking through the side of Fabric pot. Its a beaUtiful plant *** tested the run-off from the Feed this morning, its been a while. Run-off = < 3000ppm, so the plant was flushed till ppm dropped below 1500. Yep, it took 5 gal of pH’d water. The Last gallon (5th one) included the bloom nutes, a 2nd time, due to the Flush. That final gallon equaled 1000ppm - next week sees a Large-leaf schwazze on 31st (20days since orig schwazze). Any key, medium-sized shadow-maker gets yanked as well. Still gonna call it a 70% schwazze 28th - last day of week 2 in Flower - Nutes for Breakfast 1gal - really happy this beast climbed over the Metre-mark this week

Hi Guys, she seems to recover the slowest of the three plants I damaged in the seedling stage. I decided however to still give her a chance, as the root development looks promising. I have also transplanted her onto the DWC in the big tent. As I don’t have a dimmer for my sanlight, I have increased the lamp height to 65 cm above the canopy, so that she can slowly accustom to the light intensity. Nutrients remained the same.
