Kicked the Critical Kush out to let the Lemon AK have the tent to itself to finish. Tall, strong, some yellow leaves think it might be a ph issue, flushing a bit and continuing to trim and monitor, it's not widespread and the plant is otherwise healthy. Did a little trim and LST on day 48 to help it take up the extra space that is suddenly available.

Good morning growers .. The third week of vegetative has begun. I add for a day to week the nutrient 'vita race' of Plagron. I applied the LST and topping technique for taller plants and FIM technique for shorter plants. I cut the branches at the bottom because when they go into the flowering phase, those branches will produce small flowers. Sorry for my English 🙄 Stay tuned 🦍💪🏻

Predators Unleashed & First Frost ❄️🕷️ This week brought a few challenges—but also some exciting signs of progress! First off: spider mites tried to crash the party, but I wasn’t having it. 😤 I’ve been manually removing them every day, and today—finally—no new sightings. On top of that, I released a fresh squad of predatory mites, who are now keeping things in balance. Nature's tiny enforcers are on the case. 🕵️‍♂️🔬 I noticed some slightly yellowing lower leaves, so I trimmed them off. It could be a touch of nitrogen deficiency, so I slightly increased the BioBizz Grow dose during this week’s feeding. I’ll keep a close eye on it over the coming days. 🌿 Otherwise, she’s looking strong, vibrant, and full of life. Beautiful structure, steady growth, and she’s just starting to shift into bloom mode. I gave her the usual round of care: 💧 Weekly care routine: 🔸 BioBizz Grow, Bloom, TopMax, CalMag & Alg-a-Mic 🔸 Compost tea (homebrewed magic, as always) 🔸 Effective Microorganisms for a living soil boost 🔸 And this morning—a full feeding session to keep things on track ✨ Exciting signs of change: The first trichomes are starting to sparkle under the sun, and when I sit next to her, there’s already a faint, sweet scent in the air. She’s officially getting into bloom mode! 😍 Now that she’s out of the tent, she’s following the natural 16/8 rhythm—and since she was hormonally triggered into flower before leaving the tent, she’s holding that bloom energy steady outside. 🌞🌒 The vibes are good, the buds are on the way, and I couldn’t be more excited to see where this beauty goes next. Let the Red Hot journey continue! 🔥💚

Hey growmies, this was unexpected but the plants were ready for harvest after just 8 weeks. I bought a new tricome microscope and checked the trichomes on the three Mimosa ladies. To my surprise all three plants had milky trichomes and even amber ones already. There were still many white pistils on the buds but looks can be deceiving 😁 With milky and amber trichomes the plants have reached their full potential so it’s time to harvest them. The late bloomer and the fast grower had the most buds, but the hash plant had the most trichomes by far. It took me 3,5 hours to wet trim the buds and after trimming I had enough scissor hash to load my Pax vape and try it out. The taste was unmistakably orange/tangie and really sweet. The effect was a strong head high, almost trippy and slowly fading into a super relaxing body stone. This will be my new favorite strain for sure ✌️ Smoke report The Mimosa Orange Punch has a very nice taste. It's mostly tangie/orange with a citrus taste that lingers in your mouth minutes after taking a hit. The effect is also great. At first the effect seems a very mellow and pleasant head high, after 30 minutes it changes to a more relaxing/sedative state where I almost fell asleep on the couch. After this it changes back to the very uplifting and clear head high. I made some rosin from the keef in the trimbin and it had a stronger body effect compared to the flower. But also excellent taste! This is an excellent smoke for both day and nightime. I can recommend it to anyone looking for a tasty smoke while getting things done.

Hello Tokers and Growers! Welcome to another great Indica adventure! Some of you already know I love me some Indica. 😁 My current favorite Indica is Cream Caramel from Sweet Seeds but I decided to try something new this run. Sweet Zenzation (SWS84) also from Sweet Seeds. She's my only Indica dominant cultivar in the tent so I'll be taking extra care of this one. Strain characteristics: Sweet Zenzation derives from a cross between an elite clone of Zkittlez combined with a specially selected Grape Ape clone, which is one of the strains used to develop the original Zkittlez. The result is a predominantly indica genetic hybrid. It produces a large amount of resin-soaked flowers. It is both relaxing and stress-relieving, yet it also stimulates the imagination and conversation, an effect that is normally associated with sativa strains. The flowers have a high terpene content, an exquisite aroma and sweet taste, with hints of fruit flavoured candies, hardwood undertones, shades of lemon, cypress and subtle aromatic peppers. Variety SWS84 Genetics: Zkittlez x Grape Ape Type: Feminized Indica: 70% / Sativa: 30% THC: 16-23% · CBD: 0,2% Indoor Yield: 450-650 g/m2 Outdoor Yield: 400-700 g/plant Indoor Blooming: 9 weeks Outdoor Harvest: late September, early October Expectations & Training method: First time growing this strain but Sweet Seeds have always given me sweet and savory yields so I’m guessing this one won’t be any different. Genetics are promising some tasty terps, I’m the aroma will blow me away. Indica dominant so I’ll be trying to make a bud packed bush out of these. Haven’t quite decided what training technique to go with either LST or TOP and just a bit of LST adjusting the colas. That’ll depend on how I see the growth up until the training day. As for yield I’m aiming for at least 50g each plant. Equipment used in this cycle: Tent: Dutch Masters 120x240x220cm Lights: 1 x Mars Hydro TSW2000 1 x Mars Hydro FC3000 Ventilation: Garden HighPro - ProFan TT Extractor Fan - 150mm Garden Highpro - ProActiv Carbon Filter - 150mm Garden Highpro - ProFan Oscilating Clip Fans - 25cm Blauburg - Inline Fan - 125mm Humidifier: Garden Highpro - Humipro Digital Humidifier - 4 liters Pots: Garden Highpro 11L Fabric pots Medium: Biobizz Light Mix Nutrients: Grotek - Mycrorizo Plagron- Alga grow, Alga Bloom, green sensation and royal sugar. PH down Calmag Measuring instruments: Hygrometer/Thermometer - Govee: EC Meter - HM Digital: COM-80S Hydrotester PH Meter - Vanguard Hydroponics Happy Growing!

I am extremely satisfied with the biotabs fertilizer, something incredible. and no PH water adjustment 🖕🏼 one shows a slight lack of magnesium. I will not deal with it at this stage, but next time I will put the lights higher.🤘🏻 -and the buds are incredible for 4w blooms BIOTABS: …….. is still the best organic fertilizer I've tried. incredibly good and simple and I only applied it 2x🤘🏻 in 1w and 4w🌹

Primera semana de floracion, 7 dias, ciclo de luz 1212 y ya veo los primeros pelitos. Empiezo a agregar pastillas easy to bloom, de Royal Queen a 2/3 de la dosis indicada por el fabricante, al bajar el PH con las pastillas agregro PH + y Ata Clean para mantener limpio el autopot, aunque se lo hecho en el riego a todas las plantas y les va bien. Las he ido doblando las colas mas largas para equilibrarlas en altura, aunque no hizo mucha falta, quite un par de hojas muy grandes y le aplique el ultimo tratamiento de prevencion con jabon fosforico e insecticida natural de aceite de Neem, por cierto, ha venido muy bien, 0 bichos. Quiza le aplique en un par de semanas cola de caballo para prevenir hongos.

7/11 It's pouring. We got like 2 in of rain. I compared the flowering with that of the mendo breath I grew in a previous journal and they are real close. Tjat was DONE DONE in September. Judging by the small preflowers they are going to be ready approximately around the same time. I think I'm going to have a middle September harvest with some and some will go to October. Realistically, I should've changed this to flower. I like to call it "the stretch" though. Plants are stretching like a mother fucker. Seems like the less I fuck with them the better they do! No nutes yet. I'm going on vacation for a week and I think I won't feed before I leave either. Plants don't look like they are lacking in anything. Just because I have tons of nutes doesn't mean I need to use them. Still need to put up the secondary supports for flower. Went over after a break in the rain. Went through each plant one by one. Most had leaves that were either turning yellow or yellow at the bottom interior. I only removed leaves that were dead or dieing. I should probably have degoliated more but I'm doing the KISS method this year. Things seem to be doing good that way. Some minor pests. I found a slug but put out slug bait for those and earwigs. Noticed a few white flies and multi color flies (probably fungus knats but they are up at the top, not down by the soil. I'm going to think about it and do some research. Damage is so MINIMAL and pests are MINIMAL that im holding off spraying. I mat start nutes tomorrow though. I'm uncertain on a lot of things. I need to meditate on it. Just because those interior leaves died the plants are still a LUSH dark green so I think they're alright. It's going really good but I'm going to be on vacation for a week. I can still monitor daily with my camera's and my family that is watching them will FaceTime me every morning and show me what's going on. They know what they're doing and if something arises I have BASICALLY a growers union in my town. All family. We look after each other. That's the only reason I considered even going. However, the event horizons, sherb pie, toasted toffy and AT LEAST 1 GMO "LOOK" like they will be flowering early. Like I said they look similar to a mendo breath pheno on another diary that finished in September. We shall see. I'm excited that's for sure! 7/12 So far no rain! Super hot and muggy. Killed a jpn beetle and a moth larvae this morning and another beetle this afternoon. I'm seeing SOME pest damage which makes me want to spray before some of these plants take off flowering. There isn't much damage and tje birds sit on the top just WAITING for a chance to swoop in and grab something. I've seen tons of wasps tjis year. I killed a snail yesterday and put out slug bait around my pallets. I'm leaving early tomorrow. I'm CONSIDERING doing an application of Cap'n Jack's before I leave. I'm not sure. I made little DIY videos for dad and I hope he follows them. If not I'll have another grower come help. With all the rain I noticed some white flies when I shook a couple plants. I don't have time to really deal with it right now. There were only a few and I think spinosad would kill those too. Either way it will be fine. I can monitor via camera. I can even hit an alarm that goes to four different people. Still. I don't like leaving my girls. Especially in this heat. 7/13 Left early for a short vacation. Just got a picture saying it's sunny there and my plants are doing good. I'm lucky to havecthe crew that I do. I'm sure if I asked they'd put up yellow sticky traps. That's something I may consider. 7/14 Dad said it Rained last night and driving down here it was just PURE SHEET RAIN. He sent me pics I uploaded and everything looks GREAT! gonna get sun after all that rain and wind. They are gonna explode! 7/15 Still on Vacation. Dad showed me the plants and said they looked a little dry so I had him use the 4 GALLONS OF WATER I HAD PREMIXED FOR HIM TO WATER THE GARDEN. This way each plant gets a half gallon. It's supposed to be in the 90's with no rain tonight. Rains euppised to come tomorrow but I've seen how fast a bag can dry out in ONE day with super hot weather and high winds. The wind blows through the bag drying the medium out. Dad's right. Things do look amazing. I'm having fun but it will be nice to get back and see if I was right and those few plants are trying to flower. Looks just like those two mendo phenomes that flowered early. 7/16 still on vacation. Got a nice rain for the plants. Not much though. 7/17 Had DAD WATER FOUR GALLONS ON THE GARDEN. ANOTHER HEAT ADVISORY IN EFFECT. I really miss my girls. I'm ready to get going and start doing the things that need to be done. Few more days and I'll be home with my pretty ladies. Last time I came back to nice little flowers. They looked about in the same stage when I left. I love early finishers. They're stretching thsts for sure.

Hey growmies, I hope you are all well and growing good👍 This week hasn't seen much change in appearance for this lovely girl, some light pinky purple tips showing up on the tops of some buds. More purple slowly appears after each night. A little bit of fattening up but maybe not quite as much as I hoped. Her aroma has got slightly stronger 👍 she smells like a lovely vanilla and orange cookie. Trying not to touch her and disturb but I can't help it sometimes lol she is super sticky and kicks out a really sweet smell. I like her colours so far, can definitely see the wedding cake genetics coming though 😀 Node spacing a bit larger than hoped and buds are not fat but they are very dense and frosty. But never mind I still have 2 more of these seeds to try and find a keeper from 🤞 That's all for now my friends. I will probably updating this diary now after Christmas. I will also been starting a few new diaries soon with new set ups and an updated seed collection 👍 I'm very excited for next year's grows! Thanks for stopping by. I really appreciate it, you growmies are awesome!!! Merry Christmas to everyone!! I hope you all have plenty stock of your favourite Christmas trees 🎄😉 Peace

Absolutely amazing Gorilla Strawberry !!! If only I could transfer the smell to the photos. All Gorillas bloom beautifully with different colors and shapes, a joy to look at. I am very satisfied. I can not stop sniffing and watching my favorite dark purple phenotype. Unfortunately, bad weather is coming... It's supposed to rain all week, so we'll see how fast buds genetics will cope

Hello Diary, The third week of vegetation has ended, which is also the beginning of flowering. As you can see in the photos, Milky Way has started to form flowers which is normal for automatics after 3 weeks of vegetation. Milky Way is developing nicely, it grew about 10 cm in a week and got a lot of new leaves. The bright spots that were on some of the leaves have disappeared, which is good news. I started to feel a slight smell, which also makes me happy :). This week I also did minimal defoliation, I removed only the lowest leaves to make it easier to water and improve the air flow through the plant itself. When it comes to watering, it is not frequent, about every 4 days. This week I added one tablet of Easy Grow Booster. The conditions on the farm are excellent I would say, the temperature is around 26 degrees while the humidity is around 50%. Here's how it looked this week. 16/05/2023 - Day 17. Watering. I prepared 7 liters of water, lowered the pH. to 6.0 and dissolved one Easy Grow tablet and with that amount of water I watered all three plants equally. 19/05/2023 - Day 20. First, I did a minimal defoliation, removing only the bottom leaves to make watering easier and improve air flow through the plant a bit. After that I watered all three plants. 20/05/2023 - Day 21. Measuring the height of the plants and taking photos at the end of the third week. Milky Way F1 - 27 cm. That's all for this week, see you soon. Thank you all for your support and comments.

Week 6, quick root flash. All going very well the nutrients are at 2.5ml/l now, vita race weekly, bacillus mix. Plant started to flower properly and the stretch is on its way. Water at ph 6-6.5. I always try to keep the bottom clean so I do multiple clean ups of lower leaves and braches every week. Also doing this focuses the energy of the plant to the top and she doesn't waste time making popcorn buds.
