Date: 07/04/2024 Illumination Activated! Anticipating your contemplative response 🤔, it is evident that a larger vessel is imperative for her growth trajectory, considering her current confines within a 19L container. The imminent requirement calls for a spacious 60L receptacle, especially for accommodating the root expansion of this 100% sativa cultivar, akin to cultivating three distinct plants. Rest assured, I am diligently addressing this necessity. My cognitive acuity now far surpasses any previous state, a veritable testament to heightened clarity and focus. Maybe more common sense than my pervious brain dulled 😑 Mid-day: The Train of Disframe I am perplexed by the presumptions some individuals harbor about their own identities, a realm from which I am keen to distance myself. I exemplify the valor to be met with disdain. I abstain from soliciting your allegiance or appreciation towards my creations. Subsequent to the fruition of these cultivation endeavors, their merit shall resonate independently. Should you be inclined to express admiration and allegiance, it brings me joy; conversely, indifference does not perturb me. My aspiration transcends superficial accolades; I envision forthcoming cultivators beholding my endeavors with awe akin to stargazing. "I have the courage to be disliked I'm beyond it" - End of Story 08/04/2024 I find myself amidst the transition to the flowering phase of cultivation, a process I previously jestingly referenced. In humbled reflection, I seek divine forgiveness for my momentary lapse in candor. In pursuing optimal nourishment for my botanical charge, I have meticulously curated a regimen involving the gradual escalation of Sensi Bloom feed to a maximum dosage of 4ml per liter, attuned to the specific needs of the plant. Embracing the role of a discerning steward, akin to a 'Plant Whisperer,' I am dedicated to orchestrating a harmonious symphony of growth and vitality within this verdant realm. 4inch Extractor Fan installed. "The Recurrence Vid" In the compelling narrative title, the strain Forgotten Haze Cakes, classified as a pure Sativa, luxuriates in ample space for vertical expansion during the inaugural fortnight of transitioning phases, courtesy of the employed cultivation methodology. By delicately leaving the initial set of lower big fan leaves, it'll anticipate discourage within the plant from branching and proliferation. In the vibrant realm of my sativa tent, where the verdant sentinels of growth flourish under the radiant canopy of light, a unique challenge presents itself – the absence of a means to monitor humidity levels. Despite this limitation, my steadfast dedication to the well-being of my botanical charges remains unwavering. As the sativa strains bask in the nurturing embrace of their environment, enveloped in a tapestry of vibrant hues and resplendent foliage, I adapt my stewardship with a blend of intuition and experience. //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ⏸️ ▶️ "HUMIDITY" + "HUMILITY" = MILITARY! - This saga; can NOT , continue in the Military realm of Sativa" In the captivating narrative of cultivation, where the seeds of growth are sown with care and nourished with intention, a poignant reflection emerges – the distinction between "humidity" and "humility" reverberates with profound resonance. Within the intricate tapestry of botanical stewardship, the ethos of humility stands as a guiding principle, shaping the ethos of caretaking and nurturing. However, as the whimsical wordplay unfolds, the realm of the military - a stark and regimented domain - starkly contrasts with the delicate intricacies of the sativa realm. The sativa tent, with its vibrant tapestry of growth and vitality, thrives in a sanctuary where the essence of humility permeates the air, fostering a symbiotic relationship between caretaker and plant. Yet, the rigid confines of the military realm, with its structured hierarchy and discipline, stand in stark juxtaposition to the organic fluidity of the sativa's journey towards botanical magnificence. In this divergence of paths, the saga grapples with a fundamental incongruity, a dissonance that renders the blending of military precision with the ethereal essence of sativa cultivation an untenable pursuit. As such, the narrative must veer away from the militaristic paradigm, embracing instead a narrative that celebrates the organic harmony and symbiosis that defines the cultivation journey within the sativa realm. With reverence for the intrinsic beauty of growth and a deep-seated appreciation for the interconnectedness of all living beings, the saga pivots towards a narrative that honors the essence of humility, nurturing, and respect that underpin the art of cultivation. Through this recalibration of focus, the sativa tent emerges as a sanctuary of growth and renewal, where the ethos of humility reigns supreme, guiding the journey towards botanical excellence with grace and wisdom. In this realm where empirical data gives way to intuitive guidance, I rely on a finely tuned sensibility cultivated through years of tending to these green companions. Attuned to the subtle cues and nuances of their growth patterns, I navigate this uncharted territory with a blend of caution and ingenuity. While the absence of direct humidity readings may pose a challenge, my keen observation and intimate connection with the plants allow me to discern their needs with a heightened sense of awareness. As the delicate ballet of growth unfolds within the confines of the sativa tent, I embrace this unique opportunity to deepen my symbiotic relationship with Forgotten Haze Cakes. I will adapt my Military training skills with attentive care and a deep-seated understanding of their botanical language, I strive to create an environment that nurtures their flourishing without the aid of conventional metrics. This journey of cultivation, guided by intuition and nurtured by experience, embodies a union of art and science that transcends the boundaries of empirical data, fostering a connection that transcends the limitations of instrumentation. Feed Schedule ATM: 3.5.5ml/L = 66.6 Currently drinking 6L/24hrs 09/04/2024 Effective immediately; all photos taken during the flowering stage must only feature the plant with the lights on. Exceptions may be made in the case of serious incidents or issues that require documentation with the lights off or during mid-day. This protocol aims to ensure consistent monitoring and assessment of the plants' growth and health during this crucial stage. Thank you for your cooperation and adherence to this new guideline. ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// - "The Singularity Expansion" - The Singularity Expansion in the realm of my botanical cultivation practices embodies a concept of unification and harmonization. Through meticulous research and thoughtful contemplation, I have elucidated a methodology that leverages singularity as a guiding principle. At the outset, the elements of my grow technique may appear disparate and disconnected, akin to a fragmented mosaic. However, as the cultivation journey unfolds, each component seamlessly converges towards a singular, coherent endpoint, transcending the initial chaos to manifest a harmonious and bountiful fruition. Singularity serves as the transformative force that orchestrates the convergence of diverse elements within my cultivation process, culminating in a cohesive and synchronized outcome that epitomizes unity and balance. 10/04/2024 ...... as the lights illuminated the verdant expanse of my botanical domain, I meticulously undertook the task of adjusting the colas. Engaged in a strategic battle of balance and precision, I ensured that the lush growth on both the left and right sides of the scrog remained impeccably level......currently still in PROGRESS of this battle! - "In navigating the realm of visual representation within my botanical narrative, a distinct dichotomy emerges between the untreated authenticity of unedited photographs, characterized by a vibrant green hue and crisp clarity, and the studio-enhanced counterparts which exhibit a washed-out white palette. Delving deeper into this juxtaposition, I find myself strategically oscillating between these two visual paradigms, recognizing the nuanced interplay between natural realism and heightened studio effects on my S23 Ultra device" - https://youtube.com/shorts/RngRlQwy4Hk WATCH OUT the Kangaroos About! Never mind that Double-O,7, I'm Double-7,0. 707. Amidst the luminous glow, as I embarked on another day of nurturing my botanical companions, a significant milestone unfolded within the realm of my cultivation journey. The arrival of pre-flowers signaled a crucial juncture, prompting a pre-warning to elevate the nutrient feed to meet the escalating demands of this transformative phase. With precision and care, I made meticulous adjustments to the scrog, ensuring the optimal positioning for these burgeoning blooms. The act of "fluffing her" symbolized a tender gesture of support, further enhancing the growth trajectory of my botanical charges. "The Recurrence Vid 2 -Pre Flowers" Upon a recent realization, it has come to light that she does not solely possess the traits of a 100% sativa strain. In a moment of introspection, the humorous realization surfaced that this misconception had taken root in my mind. Nonetheless, she retains her endearing moniker as "Forgotten Haze Cakes," a creation by the revered breeders TerpyZ X Kalyseeds. Acknowledging my humanity, I accept the occasional errors in judgment that may arise, understanding that such missteps are a common thread woven into the fabric of human experience, even among the most seasoned individuals. These moments of revelation serve as poignant reminders of our inherent fallibility, etching themselves into our memories as enduring lessons in growth and refinement. Additionally, it has been unveiled that "Forgotten Haze Cakes" is, in fact, a hybrid of Amnesia Haze "Hy-pro cut" and Vanilla White. This may explain a little depth to the botanical identity of this intriguing lanky plant, enriching the narrative of her genetic lineage. Anticipation brews within me as I eagerly await the unfolding of her growth journey, with fingers crossed in hope of witnessing her blossom into her full potential. Here is a sneak peek photo of her, a visual encapsulation of the promise and potential that lies ahead. The flowering stage presents a plethora of nuances and intricacies to marvel at and contemplate. 12/04/2024 Lights On: Budsites Adjusted Scrog slightly. Pre-Flowers On 13/04/2024, a gentle defoliation was carried out to clear away leaves that were obscuring younger bud sites. Additionally, the nutrient regimen was adjusted to incorporate Sensi Bloom at a concentration of 3.6.6 ml/l, with planned incremental adjustments up to 4ml/l as the flowers begin their enchanting journey towards full bloom. 1 hour after the lights were turned on, it was noted that the extractor fan may have been inadvertently disturbed during the defoliation process. This is evident from the slight drooping of the , likely influenced by both temperature fluctuations and the defoliation itself. Remember to always double-check the outlets after each session to ensure smooth operations. Few hours later.... Cropmaster installed/extra 4inch extractor fan attached! 14/04/2024 Undertook defoliation procedures and implemented certain modifications. In the previous evening, Cropmaster experienced LED malfunctions. Consequently, I have resorted to utilizing the Budmasters God 9 once again God.4 Mid-day: installed 60watt side light!

Gorilla Jealousy F1 is growing good. She did have to get neem oil treatments 4 days ago, and today. There is a mysterious critter in my space. I am not sure what it is. Treatments are to stop ot and break the breeding cycle. Hopefully I eliminated the pest in the course of this. In about 2 weeks she will be moved to a tent to flower on her own. She is a bit ahead if the rest in the room. She was trained, and treated today. She is ready for another week.

4 of my plants stopped growing after day 3. I flushed 2 of them because my runoff EC was 3.6. I want to see if flushing will help then I will flush other two plants. Please help me Last watering was on day 7 and flushing on 2 plants was on day 7 as well _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 27/01/2020 day 8: reviving started . light height was increased to 115 cm(45") Plant CCA1: Stunted Grow, didn't Flush Plant CCA2: Stunted Grow, didn't Flush Plant CCB1: Stunted Grow, in the Flushed soil Plant CCB2: Stunted Grow, in the Flushed soil Plant CCC1: slow grow, didn't Flush soil _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Day 9: Dome added on top of seedlings, and added more fans and air flowing throughout grow area. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Day 10: some minor development on CCB1, CCB2(those that i Flushed). CCC1 is growing a bit faster(this Plant didn't have any problem). Day 10: soil was dry on top for CCA1 and CCA2, so these two seedlings been watered with 6.0 PH and 0.3 EC. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Day 11: Plant CCA1 and CCA2 showing some signs. Plant CCB1 was the weakest one , therefore I removed it from big pot and transplanted it to a 1 Litre pot , so soil could dry faster and I am treating her with 0.5 ml Advanced Nutrient Piranha in 1L water with 6.1 PH and 0.3 EC. I will give her 100ml every day for 10 days. Plant CCB2: showing more signs of development than the rest. she is still in flushed soil and soil still drying up Plant CCC1: was the one which didn't have a stunned growth and will feed her for first time tomorrow. According to all advices I passed following steps: increasing light height, soil will dry up until tomorrow. I gonna start light feeding for some of them tomorrow and the rest other day. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Day 12: CCA1 and CCA2 was watered(6.0 PH and 0.3 EC) 0.5 Litre CCB1: transplanted one, she is being treated with 100 ml containing 0.5ml Piranha mixed with 1 litre water per day.(5.9 PH-0.3EC) CCB2: she been fed with 0.4L water mixed with Piranha CCC1: she had her 1.5 L low dose First time nutrient feeding(using 1/4 Strength of what recommended of Sensi Grow A&B,B52,Voodoo Juice,Piranha,Tarantula) with 5.9 PH and 0.5EC. I will update about her end of day 12 or beginning of day 13. she enjoying it from very first moment. I will update about different methods that I used for each of plants to revive them. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Day 13: I transplanted other two seedling(CCA1 and CCA2) to 1 Litre pot for treatment because I used @Vincent11 methods for CCB1 and his advice helped me quite fast. But I see some yellowish colour on new leaves. it may be a nitrogen deficiency as @Jinks101 stated before or transplant stress. CCA1: transplanted to 1 litre pot and using Piranha 0.5 ml in 1 L water and watering it with 100 ml per day same as i did for CCB1.(5.9 PH-0.3EC) CCA2: transplanted to 1 litre pot and using Piranha 0.5 ml in 1 L water and watering it with 100 ml per day.(5.9 PH-0.3EC) CCB1: I see some yellowish colour on new leaves. it may be a nitrogen deficiency or transplant stress, she is still being treated with 100 ml containing 0.5ml Piranha mixed with 1 litre water per day.(5.9 PH-0.3EC) CCB2: she had her 1.5 L low dose First time nutrient feeding(using 1/4 Strength of what recommended of Sensi Grow A&B,B52,Voodoo Juice,Piranha,Tarantula) with 5.9 PH and 0.5EC. but there is some white line in the middle of leaves. CCC1: I uploaded a photo so we can compare her before and after first feeding on day 12 and after feeding in day 13. but there is some white line in the middle of leaves like CCB2. she will have her first watering with 10% run off in a day or two. I will use water-feed technique. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Day 14: Its last day of the week and listening to everyone advices helped me to recover my plants. increasing light height ,decreasing room humidity, adding dome, adding more air circulation, transplanting weakest seedling to 1L pot and treating them with 100ml(0/5ml Piranha+1L water),deceasing watering ph to 6.0, transplanted seedling soil mixed with some peat moss so i could decrease soil ph from 7.8 to 7.2, letting soil dry. CCA1: she is being treated with 100 ml containing 0.5ml Piranha mixed with 1 litre water per day.(5.9 PH-0.3EC) CCA2: she is being treated with 100 ml containing 0.5ml Piranha mixed with 1 litre water per day.(5.9 PH-0.3EC) CCB1: she had her 100 ml low dose First time nutrient feeding(using 1/4 Strength of what recommended of Sensi Grow A&B,B52,Voodoo Juice,Piranha,Tarantula) with 5.9 PH and 0.5EC. she improved a lot, I am quite happy that i saved her because she was the weakest one. CCB2: She was fed yesterday, so she was enjoying all her day. CCC1: she had her proper 3L water(5.9PH,0.3 EC) feed with 20% run off( runoff PH is still high for this plant) Wrapping up this week i uploaded pictures of each plant comparing it with day 8 when reviving started. Thanks everyone for following this diary.

Wedding cheesecake FF by Fast Buds Germination, days: 3 Vega (18/6), days: 35 Flowering (12/12), days: 70 Total, days: 108 Ec 2.5 (Athena bloom, Fade, Cleanse, Balance) Ph 6.1 Red 100% Blue 25% UV 20% DLI ~32 T. Day: ~25C T. Night: ~21.5C Humidity: ~57% T.leaf: 24.5C Week progress: I can't delay any longer, the chance of mold increases due to dry leaves. On the last day of the 10th week of flowering I started washing the substrate, washed with RO water + Athena Cleanse (2ml/l). Tomorrow I'll wash again and harvest on the next day! For now I'm planning to cut off those two lagging plants, but I might change my mind :)

Ho rimosso tutti i gangi che tenevano fermi i rami in modo che la pianta si sentisse libera di crescere in altezza, va che una meraviglia da vicino si può già vedere una quantità di tricomi non indifferente...unico problema una cavaletta che ha mangiato alcune foglie ad alcuni rami e appunto a rallentato quei due rami....ma secondo me andrà tutto bene, certo se avessi avuto un posto al chiuso e darli qualche ora di più di luce sarebbe stato magnifico, ma così mi devo accontentare della luce solare.....( Che in Puglia e abbastanza)

*****DIVINE SEEDS ***** *****OPIUM***** Sponsored grow Week 2 Germination April 6. Week 1 water only Week 2 water only This week 14-20 consisted of plain ph 6.6-6.9 water only. I gave a capful in the morning and evening. Transplanted to final 5 gallon air pot using fox farm amended soil. At 2 weeks, they have a good root structure established. Pics on 14, 16,18 &20 Until the plants are big enough to go outside, I will be using my AC Infinity tent and equipment. Once outside, I will be watering with well water and recharge and any additional fertilizers or amendments will be determined at that time. Thank You @DivineSeeds for the opportunity to grow and try what looks like a winner on all profiles. Thanks for the likes and comments, I appreciate all the plant love💚. Have fun & love what you grow 💚 Sending love and light 💫 💫Natrona 💫 DIVINE SEEDS ***OPIUM*** Harvest:1000 g/m2 Divine Seeds developed Opium as a new champion strain, unprecedently powerful and loaded with unbelievable quantities of resin. Certainly, no average genetic base could be behind such brilliant parameters! Several Afghani Indica landraces, recognized as most potent and resinous, were bred together with a mighty Brazilian Sativa which Opium inherits its bright berry taste from. Then a great deal of work followed aiming for the highest THC level and endurability as well as a branchy structure that would provide maximal yields. Now we can proudly title Opium the best Indica you could dream of growing! Indoors these plants mostly stay mid-height (1.5 m), reaching up to 2.0 m out of doors. Depending on your height limitations, Opium flourishes universally in grow boxes, balconies, green houses and terraces. Due to its Afghani parentage, this strain can stand hot weather if provided enough water and some shadow. Responds well to any training techniques: ScroG and SoG, LST, topping and FIM, supercropping. The start of blooming is marked with a rush of growth, when plants stretch almost 1.4x. Expect heavy colas that often require additional supports. Whilst ripening, Opium gives off a pungent earthy stench with fruity and berry undertones, also a bit of pine. Ready for outdoor harvesting in October. The stoning psychedelic impact of Opium is like being hypnotized (unless you’ve had too much, then it feels more like a blackout). Stone-lovers will appreciate every minute with Opium: its spicy taste immerses your mind into daydreaming, while the body rests flat. Recreation with this psychedelic Indica means silent tripping from one insight to another. Mighty enough to kill chronical pains, Opium is also medically efficient against insomnia, nausea, appetite disorders, muscle spasms, headaches, irritation, fatigue, panic attacks, epilepsy. Best consumed at night time, the effects keep going for up to 4 hours.

Mi aspettavo qualche grammo in più e un gusto differente ma comunque mi ha insegnato molto sulla crescita e sugli errori da non commettere di nuovo in futuro. Come qualità di cima sono belle come non troppo compatte con un forte aroma. Seccate per 14 giorni a 60%di umidità e 21 gradi Celsius. Conciata per 14 giorni e consumata.
