Baked Bomb autoflower grew really well. I had a issue getting a seed going, then some ph issues in vegging. Beside that she just thrived. Big dense colas with a cherry vanilla fruity smell. Loaded with trichromes as well. Can't wait to give her a try. Thank you Bomb seeds, and Spider Farmer. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱❄️🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

Cali crasher is growing well under the Hortibloom Solux 350. She got neem oil sprayed this week when the next grow space got infected with russet mites. So I treated everything not flowering to be safe. She didn't get training after the spraying. It was stressful enough as the leaves are showing. She did get a fresh solution change for first time. I Should see a lot of new growth comming in the next few weeks. Everything is about as good as expected. Thank you Hortibloom, and Doctor's Choice. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

Day 64 10/07- Welcome to the beginning of week five of flower for these ladies. They should really start fatting up now. The smell is very strong as soon as you open tent it just hits you in the face. Day 67 10/10- Fed nutrients as you can tell on one plant she is a heavy feeder. Just added 2.5ml of tiger bloom for the phosphors deficiency, other than that she is doing great flowers are really fatting up now. Day 70 10/13- End of another flower week. We should have 1.5-2 weeks left. Also after today they will just get plain water Ph to 6.3 to start flushing.

Día 75 y último de vida para esta hermosa nena. Me encuentro disfrutando de la manicura y hermosa cosecha que estoy obteniendo con esta planta, mi casa está impregnada por una fragancia dulce con toques tangie. Ahora cortaré por ramas y colgaré en la carpa de cultivo donde se secará por aproximadamente 10 días con humedad y temperatura controlada. Esperaré a curar y probar bien todos esos terps para poder dar un buen informe de cosecha pero hasta ahora todo se ve muy bien! Buenos Humos 👽

So, with the harvest complete and the dry finished, the rest is now going into jars for the final cure and storage. Overall I enjoyed this grow, it needed minimal interventions and had a smaller work load compared to the other grows. The amount of dried flowers is 752g (1.11gpw) so a decent haul, I threw a lot of B grade buds in the hash bag due to the large number of low level flowering sites (I need to rethink my canopy management) and also with the lack of stretch after flipping made the internodal spacing a bit too tight. Managed to extract 215g of grade a hash from her as well which I have pressed into a slab (pictures). I learned many things along the way, namely root health and the importance of keeping organic additions as low as possible. I also decided to try out clones for my next run, just to get a little more canopy and growth consistency - those of which are in an aeroponics tub at the moment waiting to root (picture). Thanks for those of you who followed along most of the way, good luck with all your grows!

🌸 BlueBerry – Week 5 Flower Report Grower’s Journal | Zamnesia BlueBerry ⸻ 🌱 The Girls in Full Bloom Both BlueBerry #1 and #2 are absolutely stunning this week: • Size: Towering beauties, full presence in the room. • Bud Formation: Large, well-stacked flowers building from bottom to top, showing the real effect of the ICL 300 inner canopy lights. • Pheno Difference: • Pheno #1 is forming a dominant central cola, reaching tall and thick — a real spear. • Pheno #2 is slightly more balanced across branches, but still bulking fast. • Hairs (Pistils): Beautiful white pistils everywhere — vibrant, strong, and reaching out like nature’s way of saying, “I’m ready to bloom.” This early hair explosion is a promise of dense, resinous flowers soon to come. ⸻ 💡 ICL 300 – Fruits of the Light The inner canopy lights are proving their worth: • Buds aren’t just forming at the top, but all the way down the structure. • No wasted shadow zones, no underdeveloped sites. • It feels like the plant is blooming in 360°, thanks to the way the ICL spreads light deep into the canopy. The difference between a regular top light and this combination is day and night, and now it’s visible in every flower forming. ⸻ Nutrition Update – Bringing Back All-In-One Liquid This week we reintroduced the Aptus All-In-One Liquid into the feeding mix. Why? • To give the plants a broad-spectrum nutritional push right at mid-flower. • Ensures no deficiency or slowdown during this critical bud development stage. • Works hand in hand with Top Booster and CalMag to support cell expansion and flower density. At this stage, the girls are hungry and hard at work, so it’s the right time to fuel them properly. ⸻ 🔄 Quick Recap of the Journey So Far • Cannakan germination → soil prep with Aptus amendments → steady veg → training + defoliation → flower induction. • Week 4 brought early frost and strong stacking. • Week 5 now brings real bulk, pistil fireworks, and inner canopy buds rising. This has been a textbook BlueBerry journey so far — stable, strong, beautiful. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next (Week 6 and Beyond) • More Bud Bulk: Flowers will gain weight and density quickly from here. • Pistil Transition: Some of those white hairs will start to orange and curl as new sets keep pushing. • Trichome Explosion: Frost will build across leaves and flowers, giving that snowy BlueBerry look. • Terpenes Rising: Expect the first real waves of that nostalgic, sweet-fruity BlueBerry scent. What not to expect: major height gain. The stretch is over, from here, all energy goes into flower expansion and resin production. ⸻ 💬 Final Thoughts Week 5 is the moment where the BlueBerry girls are no longer just “plants” — they are flowering powerhouses. Frost, pistils, bulk, and balance. With the ICL 300 feeding the canopy from the inside and the All-In-One Liquid giving them the push they need, these ladies are on track to become legends in their own right. BlueBerry #1’s towering cola and BlueBerry #2’s even structure are both testaments to genetic quality and environmental harmony. It’s a pleasure to watch them evolve — and even more to share their journey 🌸✨. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

For the first time, I tried working with enzymes in the irrigation water. These are supposed to break down dead roots and plant material in the soil and make it available to the plant as food. I'm curious to see how it goes. After the first three weeks of light changeover the flower transformation is done. Now it is the right time for defoliation and lollopoping. In case cherry high lollipopping wasn’t necessary I only removed one or two popcorn buds and a few leaves. Light Power: 100% Day 72 Flower day 29 Photoshooting Defoliaton

Stresskiller ✌️ Everything went fairly well with this one. I mostly left her alone because I wanted to see how she would grow without much intervention. I still had to remove some leaves, though, because she produced a lot of them. In that run, I had three plants in the tent and one of them stretched a lot. Because of that, I could not set the light optimally for the Stresskiller, which is why the buds turned out quite airy. Even so, the smell was really nice. This was the first time I truly noticed the difference between living soil and bottled nutrients. The difference was huge. She had a very fruity aroma, almost like holding a very sweet lemon in front of you. The effects were also quite good. It was more of a daytime strain with a light high that still allowed me to get things done. It was muscle relaxing but not really suitable for sleep, since the high leaned more toward the sativa side.🌱

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
