Hey all sorry for the late update. Got really busy with work and just wasnt uploading. I had to cull phat Gary cause she was a genetic herm, I’m talking pollen sacks all the way up the main stem. I’ve seen a few stress sacks here and there on the lowers but nothing like this. I added a video of it so you might know what to look out for. It’s my first experience with exotic genetix and while I have heard of them having herm issues before, I have never had anything quite like phat Gary. But, on the other hand, this Gary Poppins #2 is the best smelling plant I’ve ever had. She smells like a straight strawberry soda, just this very fizzy strawberry scent. It’s unreal. Gary Poppins #1 has a similar terp profile, but not as loud and she’s frosty as ever. Both the perm marker s1’s are identical. Both look exactly like the perm marker flower I’ve bought from seed junky in the past. Very lime green buds with light oranges hairs. Smells just like a permanent marker. Couldn’t be happier with how this run is going, well except Phat Gary. Still haven’t decided on Exotic Genetix yet. I guess we will wait and see how Blueberry Gary comes out, she’s currently in week 6 veg. Shout out to the mad scientist Jbeezy though, this perm marker is unreal. When I saw he was releasing s1’s I couldn’t believe it. Gonna wash this entire run for some fresh frozen. I would absolutely love to get this Gary Poppins #2 smell to transfer to some live rosin. Will update this when we finish and I’ll make a diary for blueberry Gary and Gastro pop from compound genetics when I get a chance. Until then, happy growing all Day: 52F - Week 8 🌡️:79 Fahrenheit 💦:50% 💡:75% @ 14 inches

For her last week or so she had to move, as i needed the other tent. The temperature and humidity fall over the last days. On day 96 it looks like she can be harvested the next days as first amber trichomes on the side buds have appeared. Probably she will be chopped this weekend. She got very frosty and looks liked powdered with flour.

👌It’s progressing, slowly but surely for my 4 young banana krumble 👶🍌 For this grow, I plan to let each plant grow with a large main bud, without topping. Next week I will cut the lower branches closest to the ground. ----------------------------------------------------------- 💧Watering: 1L on day 9 and 0.5L on day 12 I use tap water, adjust the ph to around 5.8 and water ------------------------------------------------------------ 🤩Equipment of the week : Light FC3000 Mars hydro. power 80% at 50cm Extractor 6 inch Mars Hydro. power 1/10. ON 24/24h 2 fans to circulate the air inside the tent. Each on for 30 minutes then off for 1 hour. this rhythm repeats itself in a loop Heating mat Romberg 95x95cm. ON 45 minutes. OFF 30minutes. In a loop I am adding anti-midge bird stickers 🐦 ------------------------------------------------------------ Thank you for your visit and your support with the likes, comments.

Zum Anfang der Woche habe ich wieder umgetopft. Diesmal in den Endtopf 7,5L. Außerdem habe ich die Green Poison F1 und Tropicana Poison F1 von den Crystal Candy F1 getrennt. Das Substrat ist genau wie vorher 30% Euro Pebbles und 70% Light mix. Beides von Plagron. Den EC habe ich beibehalten. Weiterhin nach jeder 3ten Bewässerung mit 10-15% Drain bewässert, sonst nur ca 600ml täglich ab dem dritten Tag der 5ten Woche eine Stunde nach Sonnenaufgang. Zum Ende der Woche habe ich die zweite Ts 1000 eingesetzt, um etwas gleichmäßigere Verteilung zu bekommen und nähere mich jetzt auch dem Blätterdach täglich bzw. hänge die Lampe nicht höher. Im Nachhinein gesehen, hätte ich direkt das Netz einsetzen sollen um mehr Zeit zu sparen. Nicht das alles unter Zeitdruck ist, aber die zu lange Vegi macht sich Nachher mit mehr Laub als gewollt in der Blüte sichtbar. Durch die kalten Temperaturen teilweise habe ich schon heizen müssen. Deshlab lief der Befeuchter von Mars hydro quasi im Dauereinsatz um in beiden Zelten die Feuchtigkeit auf 65-70% zu halten.

Finally the stretched stopped. Cut about 10 tops bent about 20 with 90s. Still right in the lights. They are looking very happy even though they are so close to the light ( thanks to high c02 levels most likely.) Another week or 2 before I cut the temps and co2 levels down. Been trimming all leaves below light line. Stinky and brutally sticky I feel like Clark griswold with pine sap when ever I am bending the tops and such.. I think even with them being in the lights I will still get a few pounds of premium flower to smoke :)

Such Bittersweet Joy Added this week as ‘Flowering’ although technically should be harvested as I but I haven’t had a chance to weigh or anything. I will do that next week once trimmed etc. So finally cut them down on D89, it was a beautiful day outside and it just felt right. Although when it came to the deed itself I felt sadder than I thought I would for my girls and the time we had together. All 6 (I’m growing another 3 different strains but not included on this diary) are now hanging to dry in the tent. Temp -18 C; Humidity-60% seems to be holding steady with no tinkering thankfully. After the 3 days they have all dried noticeably, perhaps 4/5 more before trimming / curing. I’ve had quite a close look at most of the harvest and as far as this noob can tell, there doesn’t seem to be any issues with mould / bud rot. Fingers remain crossed. I did have one very profound moment this week... It happened as I was surveying the harvest hanging up for the first time. I could feel my mindset change suddenly from the constant paranoia over their health and overcoming my impatience to “I actually have a crap load of weed”. It was beautiful beautiful moment... Thanks for reading. Have a great week 😊

Purple Hints & Tent Transitions 🌸🌿 Week 4 of flower has arrived for my big Red Hot Cookies, and she’s now two weeks into her new life under the LED lights. After battling unpredictable weather out on the balcony, I made the call to bring her inside—and honestly, I don’t regret it one bit. The transition may have slowed her down a little, but it’s a much safer bet than letting her face another round of rainy chaos. 🌧️☔ She shares the tent with two Divine Seeds autos from the contest, so the light schedule remains at 16/8, which isn’t ideal for photoperiod flowering—but I’m curious to see how she handles it. Despite the slightly delayed bud development, I’m seeing some beautiful structure forming and her leaves have started to take on those signature purple hues. 🍇💜 Here’s her care routine this week: 🔸 Fed with BioBizz Grow, CalMag, BioBizz Bloom and BioBizz Top-Max 🔸 Effective Microorganisms to keep the soil biology strong 🔸 A dose of homebrewed compost tea midweek 🔸 Silica foliar spray was stopped when flowering began 🔸 pH: 6.5 🔸 EC: 2.2 mS/cm I also did a round of lollipopping on day 21 (July 10th), and she’s stayed nice and airy underneath since then. Still waiting for the upper buds to really start packing on weight, but there’s plenty of time—and I’m loving the color shifts and her elegant frame. Let’s see what the next few weeks bring as she fully settles into bloom under the tent glow. 🌞✨

Todo bie, viendo y conociendo por primera vez como los cogollos engordan y maduran, estamos nerviosos pero muy pacientes y tranquilos, solo nos preocupa cortar en el punto exacto, eso es lo que nos tiene con nervios, esperamos cosecha en el timepo justo para poder disfrutar de estas dulces y olorosas flores en su maximo punto.

Finally got the big tent and got the environment dialled in. With the AC in the tent, it's way more stable now; this also means I can close the distance between the light and the plant and she's definitely growing better.

Week 9 is here and we are looking at harvesting! After checking the trichomes of just the top colas, I decided this week I was going to harvest. I am updating this post after I have dried and harvested the plant so do not have much more details. I flushed the plant this week with Flora Kleen along with terpinator and microbes. I cut down the plants and hung them up in the tent to dry using a clothes hanger with clips I got off of Amazon. It took 10 days to dry the bud and my temps and humidity would fluctuate throughout the day and night. I stayed in the mid to low 70s for temperature and humidity was at 50% at first. Then I added a humidifier and had it dry in 60% humidity. Will update the rest in the harvest update.
