Week 2 Flower – Roller Coster Haze (Zamnesia Seeds) Full Bloom Ahead The girls aren’t just entering flower — they’ve rocketed into it. From what seemed like a short transition, they’ve gone full throttle: pistils shooting, buds forming, leaves praying, and roots bursting through the medium. ⸻ Growth Update – No Pre-Flower, Just Boom This week marked an unusually fast shift: • Visible Pistils Everywhere – no gradual pre-flower here; instant bloom mode. • Budlets Forming – early structures already showing stacking tendencies. • Stems & Roots – while not the thickest stalks, the root zone is bursting with vitality, visibly surfacing in some areas of the soil. • Canopy Size – they’ve outgrown the closet! Photos this week stay inside the tent, it’s just not safe to move these ladies anymore. ⸻ Irrigation Upgrade – Semi-Auto in Motion With the room expanding and multiple genetics running, it’s time to make watering smarter: • Semi-Automatic Irrigation Installed – currently set up to water 8 plants. • Not Fully Automated Yet – still manually monitoring and hand-watering other genetics in the room. • The goal is precision without full delegation — a hybrid system offering consistency + control. This is how smart growers scale: one foot in tech, one foot in the soil. 🌱 ⸻ Red Spectrum Timing – Emerson Effect in Action Let’s dive into light science, because this week, you’ve implemented something most growers don’t even think about: ☀️ What is the Emerson Effect? Discovered by Robert Emerson in the 1950s, the Emerson Effect is the phenomenon where plants photosynthesize more efficiently when exposed to both red (660nm) and far-red (730nm) light simultaneously. Even better? Far-red at the start and end of the day manipulates the plant’s internal clock, promoting faster flowering and shorter day-length response. 🔴 Your Implementation: • 15 minutes of red/far-red spectrum • Before lights-on (simulating dawn) • After lights-off (simulating dusk) This technique: • Promotes faster flowering initiation • Enhances flower site expression • Helps with sleep/wake cycle regulation Well played — this is next-level light manipulation. 🌕 ⸻ AC Implementation – Heat Down, VPD Back in Range The much-needed air conditioner has arrived, and it’s already proving itself: • Old Temps: ~31°C • New Temps: 28.8°C • Humidity: 66.6% • VPD: 1.33 kPa (much more ideal for flower initiation) While it’s still a warm tent, the VPD is now in the sweet spot, allowing for strong transpiration, nutrient uptake, and healthy gas exchange. The girls are clearly responding beautifully. ⸻ Nutrient Addition – Plagron Sugar Royal This week we’ve added Plagron Sugar Royal at 1ml/L to our Aptus regimen. What is Sugar Royal? Despite the name, it contains no actual sugar. Instead, it includes: • Amino acids – which help the plant produce more chlorophyll and essential oils • Biostimulants – supporting stress resistance, enzyme activity, and resin production Why now? In early flower, Sugar Royal: • Promotes floral aroma expression • Helps boost terpene synthesis • Supports the plant’s transition from vegetative to reproductive growth It’s a perfect complement to your Aptus Core Line, which continues to include: • Regulator – 0.25 ml/L • CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml/L • All-in-One Liquid – 1 ml/L • Top Booster – 0.2 ml/L • Now: Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L ⸻ Looking Ahead – Stretching Toward the Sky With such aggressive early flowering and the canopy rapidly expanding, it’s hard to say if you’ll be able to move them for next week’s photo shoot, and that’s okay. If we’ve learned one thing from this strain, it’s that she moves at her own thrilling pace. Expect: • Continued vertical stretch (still likely to gain 30-50% more height) • Strong bud stacking at internodes • Early terpene and trichome formation in the next 7–10 days Your setup is dialed. Your environment is stabilizing. And your knowledge is putting these girls in the best hands possible. ⸻ 🌱 Week 2 Flower Summary – Roller Coster Rises 📸 Stay Tuned, Stay Rooted • Height: ~50–55 cm • PPFD: ~760 µmol/m²/s • Temperature: 28.8°C • Humidity: 66.6% • VPD: 1.33 kPa • Light Cycle: 11/13 (with 15 minutes red/far-red at lights on/off) • Nutrients:   – Aptus Regulator (0.25 ml/L)   – CalMag Boost (0.25 ml/L)   – All-in-One Liquid (1 ml/L)   – Top Booster (0.2 ml/L)   – Plagron Sugar Royal (1 ml/L) • Photos: Taken inside the tent (plants too large to move) From this point forward, the buds will fatten, aromas will intensify, and your tent will become a living painting of sativa energy. Next week might be wild — whether or not we get outside shots, the story will be worth sharing. ⸻ Let’s keep the momentum going, and let’s keep making GrowDiaries and the community a space where we learn, laugh, and bloom together.

Seeds from Humboldt Seed Company germinated faster, but Green House Seed Co. plants have been growing bigger so far...

Our Zamnesia Critical Cheese Automatic has a distinct, predominantly sativa appearance. What a plant guys, I cleaned the ugly flowers very very well and I can really say that I am very happy with this plant. Swollen buds, well aligned and looks super healthy, can't wait to smoke this. Techniques chosen: Here, we applied LST to a plant with short internodal spacing; it's not ideal, but we wanted to give it a try. We're 100% organic and 1000% Plagron, as always. The soil we've chosen is the recently released Plagron Bio LightMix, which will allow us to start flowering more smoothly and reliably, without the sudden changes that liquid fertilizers can cause. A week is more than enough, so don't overdo it. We're in the final flowering stage and things are starting to get serious, so we're adding our legendary bloom booster Green Sensation and starting the late flowering phase. - Green Sensation 1 ml/l - Pure Zym 1 ml/l - Silic Rock 1 ml/l - CalMag Pro 1 ml/l - Sugar Royal 1 ml/l - Power Buds 1 ml/l - Alga Bloom 0 ml/l Just booster and soon in flush Choose your preferred style and calculate your results on the website: www.plagron.com Z - https://www.zamnesia.io/it/531-growshop A great strain, not tall but very bushy! Give it a try! Z - https://www.zamnesia.io/en/3334-zamnesia-seeds-critical-cheese-automatic-feminized.html Z - Not content with what they already had in their hands, the expert breeders at Zamnesia Seeds wanted to embark on a journey into the world of autoflowering genetics, aiming to improve upon a great British classic... the Cheese cannabis strain. They crossed Critical with a high-quality Cheese specimen, enriched with a significant amount of Ruderalis. The result is an extremely potent, therapeutic, and easy-to-grow autoflowering version. This new, improved strain has been named Critical Cheese Automatic. Critical Cheese Automatic embodies everything that made the original Cheese so famous, acclaimed, and loved around the world. We're, of course, talking about the Skunky flavors and pungent aromas this strain releases, not to mention the overwhelming effects it induces. Lovers of the original Cheese will surely appreciate this feminized reincarnation. Smoking Critical Cheese Automatic produces exceptionally potent sensations for an autoflowering strain. Its effects are quite strong and highly physical, both in intensity and duration. With these properties (or "body") in mind, it's no wonder many medical users are the first to want to get their hands on this "skunky" plant. Those suffering from chronic pain, inflammation, stress, anxiety, and migraines (to name just a few of the ailments it can alleviate) will notice their symptoms diminish, if not disappear completely, thanks to the potency of this strain. With this autoflowering "upgrade" of the Cheese strain, even novice growers can achieve excellent results. It's a vigorous plant, incredibly easy to grow, and requires little maintenance. Commercial growers looking to generate income will appreciate Critical Cheese Automatic primarily for its life cycle: from germination to harvest in just 10 weeks. When grown properly, it can produce yields of 120-150g per plant. In addition to its excellent yields, Critical Cheese Automatic reaches a rather compact size (1 m), making it highly suitable for any type of grow. That said, Critical Cheese Automatic only thrives when grown outdoors in warm climates (like those of Spain or Italy). So, in conclusion, whether you're a beginner, veteran, or commercial grower, Critical Cheese Automatic offers great satisfaction to everyone. You know it, but I recommend it: here you'll find so many beautiful things, basically "all the best that nature has to offer."

These girls are growing wonderfully. Just started them on veg nutes.

The week started with an of trichome production and smell, orange and mandarin peel. Really nice to smell on her. She is packed with flowers and looks quit healthy. I need to have an eye on nitrogen. My potting mixes were a bit too hot and Tangerine Dream maybe needs a flush. We‘ll see how she will looks tomorrow morning and the so decide.

The Afghani x Mac1 auto from DNA recovered well from the training and is in full bloom. Bud sites are looking great. Had an issue with humidity this week and the leaves started looking rough. She got a dose of Recharge this week and drinks about 8-12oz of water throughout each day. All in all she's trucking right along. Very happy with how smooth this solo cup grow is going.

Last week of smart proteins she got it once maybe twice by now, had a tough week not gonna lie the travails of the grower what are you gonna do 😅 drinking a bit, no nutrients yet, she might get a pk boost who the tf knows 😎 dropped her lights to 10/14 to induce resin production now these absolutely reak lol can't quite put my finger on it , sometimes it's really sweet citrus sometimes it's dankier 🚀

This is the first day of the first week of flower in the first video and the 6th day of flower in the second video.. you can see me shit myself when I saw that one of my main top sights snapped from tying the branch down … the lights were using are lights we designed and are testing at the moment also we are trying to keep a good distance between the tops and the lights to keep the temps down around the bud sites ! You can tell there are a couple other strains thrown in there the one purple punch from Barney’s farm is just Caking on nodes upon nodes like it’s impossible to get light to them unless they are pulled down in really liking the structure of the ocean fruit and am looking forwards to the finish!

Apricot Auto – Harvest coming next Monday 🌕✂️🍑 Despite the HPLV infection, she’s developed quite well 💪🌿 Harvest is scheduled for next Monday, following the lunar cycle 🌕🔍 The goal: to test if moon-based harvesting improves terpene production 🌬️👃 It might be a bit early, but this is all part of the experiment Let’s see how it goes – stay tuned! 🚀📷 Apricot Auto – Ernte am nächsten Montag 🌕✂️🍑 Trotz der HPLV-Infektion hat sie sich echt gut entwickelt 💪🌿 Geerntet wird nächsten Montag, passend zum Mondzyklus 🌕🔍 Ziel ist es, herauszufinden, ob die Ernte nach Mondkalender die Terpenproduktion steigert 🌬️👃 Vielleicht ist es etwas früh, aber das gehört zum Experiment Wir schauen mal, wie es wird – bleibt dran! 🚀📷

Day 36: Girls looking pretty happy. Still some discoloration going on. Doesn't look to be spreading though. Day 37: Ok, the girls obviously were not happy this morning. I watered with quite a good amount of runoff and measure the PPM at 3200!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm surprised they are still alive! Had to make a quick run to get some water for a flush as I only have 5 gallons worth. Ran 2 gallons through each of them at a ph of 6.4 around 9:30 this morning. It's now 5pm and they have pulled through great. These OG Kush are extremely resilient. Day 38: The girls look way better today after flushing yesterday. Two of the pots were almost completely dry already. Went ahead and fed at 500ppm with runoff. Day 39: I think it's dialed in now. They are looking amazing and still stretching pretty good. Went ahead and pulled off a handful of leaves between the 5 of em. Day 40: Did a little more defoliation and opened them up a bit. I am super worried about getting any type of mold or any issues in particular for this first round. One of the girls needs a touch more but ran out of time. Girls are looking super healthy! 💪 Day 41: They are looking super awesome. Got the runoff dialed in. 750 going in and roughly 800 coming out. May up it in a week or so. Day 42: Nothing new to update. Girls still looking amazing. I think the stretch may be slowing just a tad.

Divine Seeds Auto V.2 Contest Auto Black Opium W4V4 6/29-7/5 6/29 2 liters water ph 6.1, ppm 242, 69.5F Wetting the outer rim of the pot. 7/2 2 liters ph 6.44, ppm 222 68.5F Wetting the outer rim of the pot. I’m giving ph water for this grow unless deficiencies are noted since Supersoil is in my base mix and will be adding Green Sensation during flower. She is 3.5 inches tall and very bushy. From the pics you can see she fills up the top of her 3 gal pot with her big indica leaves. As aways, thank you all for stopping by, for the likes and most of all growers’ love and support. Stay green, growers love 💚🌿 💫Natrona💫

The ladies hitting week 5 and from now it'll be a pleasure to watch them 😁😁😁. Can't wait to get home from work and take care of my babies 😂😂😂😂. Damn it feels good to be a gardner 🌲👆🏼
