3.4. - Watered 💧 6.4. - Watered 💧 also flushed all Banana Purple Punch. 3.4. - 9.4.2025

Cooling off at night, lots of dew, but being underneath my big Cherry Tree provides some relief. Did a big defoliation to help with airflow, removed quite a few inner branches that weren't keeping up with the canopy, but overall happy with the shape and structure, will probably just ride the rest out as it. Just water this week, spray of LCPT and a spray of BT for caterpillars. Will alternated LCPT / BT ever 3-4 days. Flowering is looking great, very aggressive TONS of pistils, trichomes developing as well, going to be 6 weeks at least, if the weather can hold out that long that is!

Friday, March 5th. Holy Guercamoly....... these Girls are going to be tall. They are stretching Like Queens 🙀 and Drinking like Barmaids....😉 I cleaned the Bottomarea, cutting away leaves and small shoots. Ic an se a lot of potential Budsites Flowers appear, and soon they get the first Floweringfeeding. Until now everything is running smooth. Girls are sitting in amended soil, and they LOOOVE it.... Looking fresh and Green ... no excess... no defiency.......... thats the Way aha aha I like it 😁

We had storms. Plants nearly survived. I gave them support. Now they seem fine but the leaves weight is to big for the stem.🙃 Lots of attitude for a two week old.

Greetings my dear Jungletamers, So a major surprise came when @MarsHydroLED contacted us and asked if would like to try out their new SP 3000 light. Being a fan of Mars Hydro for years, we of course accepted their offer. We are totally in love with this light. I was when I saw it in another grower's setup and was in awe of its output and results. So with much pride and thankfulness for the presents the Universe bestowed on us, in the form of MarsHydroLEDS offer and the bountiful harvest of the last grow, (which I am thoroughly enjoying btw, such a great weed to have grown ourselves) we start out on a new adventure that we can't wait to share with you. With many lessons learned from the previous grow, a mighty producing strain in the form of Expert Seeds Gorilla Glue #4, a.k.a Expert Gorilla's and a tweaked super soil mixture, we are setting out to hopefully get over a gram per watt, preferably 1.5. The Setup A 4.5 (140 cm) x 2(70) x 6.2 (200) grow tent, giving me a .98 m2 workspace. This space is customized to my needs. A standing fan will provide airflow through the whole grow, a top fan will help guide cooler air past my lights onto the grow. 3 56 ltr pots will be the home for the plants when they are 2 weeks old, up to then in smaller jars. The Light The leading role and star of the show will be played by the Mars Hydro SP-3000, so kindly provided by MarsHydroLED, which we will test and review here and I might say, endorse. I'm very careful with who I endorse and support these days, but a company with that many wins in design, I'm talking ever since their first range came out in 2009 these guys have been raising the bar for the whole industry, I did not hesitate to support this leading brand. If you want to compete with these guys, you better bring some quality AND affordable pricing. Why do I endorse the SP-3000 without ANY hesitation? It is seriously THE BEST light on the market in this price range and size group. It has an enormously effective output in U/Mol and with 30% less energy waste comparing to older LED lights. Prove me wrong! And with a company holding a considerable market share selling thousands of units every month, competing on price and quality, one would think that customer service would suffer. Of course, also Mars Hydro is not perfect, but check the sheer amount of people that not only praise the light but also the service received, should the light somehow not perform up to par. It is this dedication to their customer base that made this company have a fanbase... Yes, a fanbase with a website and a wiki. So if you are looking to buy new lights, check out the END OF SUMMER OFFER at the Mars-Hydro Global Store on Aliexpress: https://marshydroled.aliexpress.com/ 👈 Check their offers but also their score, they ship from a warehouse near you so you don't have the extra import fees!! Cut out the middleman and have a deal on these lights!! At the moment I write this in August 2021, the lights are 408,20 euro when sent from Germany to the rest of Europe, that's 40 euro cheaper than the other Mars outlets, BUT EVEN 60 euros cheaper than ordering at a grow store!! The Strain: Experts Seeds - Expert Gorilla feminized regular. Don’t let the name fool you because Expert Gorilla is suitable for growers of any skill level. However, you do need to be an experienced smoker because Expert Gorilla is one of the most potent strains on the market. Lineage: Chem Sis x Chocolate Diesel x Sour Dubb Popularity: Extremely Popular Flavor/Aroma Profile: Chocolate, Earthy, Fuel Yield: 400 g/m2 Stress Tolerance: High resistance to disease Potency: 24% THC Flowering time: 58 - 63 days The Soil: Those who saw my Monstercropped Gelato #33 grow (you should see it if you didn't, I'm so proud of that grow), know about my super soil and organic nutrients/ permaculture tea combo that starred in my previous diary. Because of the great results, we are going to use the same recipe, adjusted some more with some new ingredients that will complete the mix and give an even more sustained super soil buffer. 20% Atami Bi-grow (very similar to ocean forest) 20% Atami worm castings 20% Atami Coco Coir 10% Hydrocorn 10% Peat powder 1 cup Fossil seaweed chalk 1 cup bonemeal 1 cup bloodmeal 1 cup Microlife 3-4 teaspoons of epsom salt 3 cups of activated biochar (activated with our own permaculture tea) I just made layers, starting with hydro corn on the bottom to aid airflow/run-off. On this I started layering the coco coir, Bi-grow, peat, castings, and amendments in a way that the more mature the plants get, the more phosphorous and less nitrogen they will find. Every time I made three layers, I would mix them by hand. This way we simulate natural soil, which consists of humic layers, composting plant waste, fungal and microbial life, and nutrients from fossilized sources. The Nutrients I will start with just adding 6.4 PH water, although this soil should buffer ph itself and regulate, after 4 weeks, I'll slowly be adding: - Biobizz Grow - Plagron Alga Grow - Biobizz CalMag - Biobizz Flower - Plagron Alga Flower - Biobizz Topmax - Melasses The Tea Some of you might remember the permaculture tea from my previous grow, I have a short video in my harvest page showing how we make it), it will star again in this grow. - (Rain)water - Comfrey (whole plants) - Dandelion leaves - Roots and leaves from the earlier grow - Minor periwinkle (Finca minor) is a plant we have in our garden, it contains an alkaloid that is associated with increased brain function but also is a light toxin for wee beasties and other unwanted guests like gnats (who hate it). - When flowering I add some wood ash to this mix Thank you for checking in on one of my grows again! Thanks for all the love on my previous grow, check it out if you haven't seen it!! Hug Bud

Hey everyone! Week 5 is complete, and we’re moving into week 6! Everything went smoothly without any issues, and the ladies showed no signs of stress or deficiencies. We’re slowly approaching the final phase, so I’ll only be giving water from now on, possibly with a few beneficial microorganisms. If you have any questions or are interested in cultivating with living soil, feel free to reach out—I’m here for you!

Day 28: What a great week it has been for these ladies this week. They have all got on with business in a very orderly fashion. Gorilla#1 has now been trained a little with some gentle L.s.t to pull her main down. I am hoping to not add any recovery needs that will slow growth down at all so no topping. #2 She has been the most productive and has gone way past her initial stake out points. Staked out she is showing approx 7-8 good prospects for mains. I took the small lowest growth out to not waste energy on them. #3 has engulfed her 30L pot already and tied down she looks even more able. she is showing small pre flower hairs at a few bracts . Her fan leaves are a huge size already and tucking them away was hard. #4 Has been pulled down on her 5th node to encourage the lowers to gain some size. she is still fairly squat and bushy looking. Sweet Cheese is slowly gaining size now and has remained low to the surface if the pot so far. I think she will be more natural grown. Overall it feels like a great entrance into their final weeknof flower possibly. Now we have some mains set out for their long stretch session in flowering. I don't think height will be an issue for them in my room this run.lol I gave them all a really heavy feed to get the pots active with the biosys and life-cycle again now and hope I can catch them right for their flowering boost needs. I have bought some shogun Pk and their finisher too. lets hope its a drama free week. Be safe and well growies

Thanks to you guys I sorted over watering problem. This growing has been great and I cannot wait to taste Purple Buds. I will update on the smoke report when girls are ready :). Peace0

Las plantas llevan 30 días de vida, acabo de trasplantar a tiestos de 11 litros, depues de un par de días de estrés por el trasplante se espabilarán y empezarán a crecer como locas, creo que en una semana más a 18h alcanzarán un buen tamaño para pasar a floración. En los tiestos de 11 litros e añadido sustrato light mix mezclado con guano, humus y nutrihemp. Realizó la mezcla y relleno tiestos y trasplanto las plantas ai. La kritikal de growbarato a salido mongola pero se ve robusta y se está poniendo bien , voy a dejarla para ver qué sale. También e puesto un esqueje de skittles ya que supuestamente es 80% indica y tendrá el mismo tiempo de floración que las OG kush y Cream caramel. A si que ya veremos más adelante que pasa. Bueno amigos un saludo y buenos humos!😎 Esta semana e aprovechado para fumigar con preventivos, utilizó propolix de trabe , que va muy bien para prevenir los hongos como el oidio,botrithis, etc…. Añado 2 ml/L y empapó bien media hora antes de que se enciendan los focos, Este proceso lo repito cada 15 / días asta la segunda semana de floración que dejó de echarle.

End of Week 5 Brewed a nice veg-specific compost tea and the ladies loved it. Trying to make sure the soil stays nice and moist to keep the microbes happy and letting the top 3 cm of the topsoil dry before each watering. The ladies have gained some momentum and they're growing at a rapid pace . I also performed some HST by tucking fan leaves and softly pinching and bending some of the stems to open up the canopy whilst keeping the stress at a minimal. Pest Report: Didn't have much issues up until now... I noticed about 5-10 tiny little thrips on some of the leaves and I applied an organic microbial insecticide (Agro Organics Bio-Insek, Google it!) that seems to have taken care of the problem. Now I will apply it weekly to make sure those buggers are ELIMINATED.

Day 15 since seed touched soil. All is going amazing. Yesterday topped them up a bit. Stems looks lanky, would expect stronger by now, but generally girls fly ! Off course i watered them straight after goodies were rubbed into top soil. Great White - 4 g sprinkled around for each plant BioSys same amount. Ecothrive Bio Blend - 200 grams added to each pot. Cookie is racing Devil for the win ;) my back up plan is the only slow runner ;))) That's my luck this summer in EVERYTHING ;))))) Lights are still on 40%, Mars as always has great products for growers. Think this week i will start some training. Day 19. Yesterday girl got 800 ml oh 6.3 phed water. She tries to win this grow, very nice girl, not giving up and chasing Devil for biggest girl of this grow award ;))) Think to start training her tomorrow. Day 20. First LST. Watering straight after, plus Biobizz Leaf Coat shower. Approx 2.5 liters went in, first big saturation. Happy Growing !!!

CHERRY 🍒 COLA by FASTBUDS WEEK #2 OVERALL June 8th-15th WEEK #1 Veg This week she was transplanted to 5 gallon cloth pot and moved outside for remainder of her grow. She's looking good. Stay Growing!! FASTBUDS CHERRY 🍒 COLA

Looks like I had a small deficiency of sorts (calcium I think) and I'm feeling optimistic about the corrective actions I took. However, I think it is time to change my nutrients up, the sooner the better. plants are sagging and are in need of soil to hold the nutrients so ill re-pot mid week

I dont know what the problem is, but my week comments doenst come good. Its not my fault and sending a message to GD support, well, they dont care and dont reply at all! Thanks GD Really nice that u check this page, its very much appreciated, thanks! This week all is in flowering and the flowers now quickly getting fat! Ive started with nutrition: Sea weed 15ml/10L P 8ml/10L Bloom 30ml/10L Molasse 20ml/10L Silicium 10ml/10L -----------------Purple Haze ----------------- Purple Haze Purple Haze ontstond in de jaren zeventig in de Verenigde Staten en is vernoemd naar het bekende nummer van Jimmy Hendrix. Purple Haze was de meest gerookte wiet bij Woodstock en een wereldwijde favoriet onder rokers. Ook in Nederland werd deze cannabissoort steeds populairder. Deze populaire haze soort zie je vaak in Nederlandse coffeeshops. De toppen van de Purple Haze wietplanten zijn compact met prachtige THC kristallen en hebben paarse tinten. Het roken van deze wiet maakt je euforisch, creatief en geeft je een opbeurend gevoel. Het effect is krachtig en merkbaar als een sativa high gevoel.

Been off here for a while, thought I’d update. She’s been battling some calcium and N deficiencies lately, so I’ve topdressed her with some dolomite lime and started giving her full strength feeds. She’s been thickening up quickly and nicely, and she’s smelling like cheesy BO but in a good way.

Nice strain with lovely buds, the amazing purple buds are no joke when smoking her. She has a strong couch-lock high and gives a little bit paranoia.

I am constantly feed this girl and she constantly shows signs of nitrogen/magnesium deficiency. She is a feeding machine. I am going to try and up it somewhat as she is showing more defficency. Never the less she is coping well, still recovering from leaf burn but everything appears to be OK at this minute.

new life new adventure 💚🌱🇬🇪
