1/14: All 3 are looking great! This morning, I did a foliar application of big bloom and fulvic acid, then about 5 hours later I watered them with about a half-gallon of rainwater each and added armor si, humic acid, endoboost myco/tricho, liquid molasses, and a bunch of cal-mag. Today, I also I wired up and mounted my new samsung sun board strips (660nm/730nm) and my Solacure FlowerPower UVB fixture. I'm running the deep red/far red bud boosters a few hours per day right now, but will run them for the entire photoperiod once I start flowering them. I'll run the UVB for 4 * 15-minute sessions a day for the full flowering cycle, and if they don't protest too much I'll increase each session by 5 minutes and evaluate again. Some strains are more forgiving than others and I've got 5 different strains in this space...so really not sure much time I'll get away with exposing them to the deadly rays without damaging them too much...😈 1/15: I received one of the rapid led/growmau far red initiator pucks today. With the placement of my UVB light, I'm realizing I'll need another far red puck to have even and intense far red coverage, so I'm ordering another with Prime delivery and waiting to start flowering until I receive it. I sprayed them down really well with ph adjusted rainwater tonight to rinse off nutrient build-up from foliar applications. 1/16: I'm really excited to try flowering under 14/10. I grew photos indoors on an off for 15 years before I semi-retired. If I added up all the additional flowering time I could have done through the years if LED technology existed, I'd have had an extra truckload of bud to smoke. I did another application of Axiom Harpin a|b Proteins this evening, right before dark. I'm expecting a big growth burst this week, leading up to the flower stretch. I really need them to trigger under 14/10 within 4 or 5 days🙏 ...if not, I'll switch to 13/11 and wait a few more days🙏😟..if still no pistils are poppin, I'll go to 12/12 and chalk it up as bad luck or varietal indifference to Pr and Pfr manipulation. 1/17: I fed each of them about 3/4 gallon of full strength veg nutes. This will be the last. I'll go with half-strength veg and half-strength bloom for a week, then go with full strength bloom nutrients until I start flushing them in 6-8 weeks. 1/18: I installed the second far-red flowering initiator today and got all my timers configured for flowering: ========================================= timer#1 - power strip with qb's and red boosters 10:00am -12:00am timer#2 - (dual/independent setting) sideA- 3-way cube with uva bars 10am - 3pm 7pm - 11pm sideB- flowerpower uvb 1pm - 1:15pm 4pm - 4:15pm 7pm - 7:15pm 11pm - 11:15pm timer#3 - far red pucks 11:00pm - 12:15am timer#4 - sub-canopy tube 10am - 1pm 3pm - 6pm 8pm - 11pm ======================================== I also did some testing on the timers and sealed myself into the closet to check for any light leaks. All good.👌 1/19: Tonight is their first long night. It's ON!👍 1/20: I watered them today with about a half gallon each. I'm seeing calcium and magnesium deficiencies here and there, so added some boomerang and heavy cal-mag-Fe along with liquid molasses, humic acid, and endoboost myco. I also foliar fed with big bloom and fulvic acid. That's it for week 4-

Ya estamos a medio camino del proceso, las plantas se ven sanas y con una leve ventaja de la Red Strawberry Banana #2, la cual muestra una floración mas adelantada que la #1 como muestran los videos. Se nota un tono purpura mas oscuro en la R.S.Banana #2 y un tono mas claro en la R.S.Banana #1, la cual muestra un tallo de gran proporción quizás por un leve exceso de Nitrógeno.

"W4 is ON 🔥! Both cannabis queens are thriving 💚! @demonicgenetics is an absolute dream to grow, loving the LST training 🤩. Every day I'm hooked, going back for more 📈! Meanwhile, @fastbuds420 is waking up and getting her groove on 💃. Weeks 5 & 6 are gonna be HUGE 🚀, can't wait to share the progress! Stay tuned for next week's update 📺!"

Flushed this week with straight water. Bud is smelling like sulfer and orange. Bud structure was good but they don’t seem very dense. Nice color shift the last two weeks of growth. Chopping down and hanging for a two week dry.

Looking lovely for week 1 of flower

Northern lights is looking a little bit sorry for itself. Unfortunately, she was leaning really heavily towards the ground. So I decided that I was going to use some metal garden pegs to prop her up with. She seems to be doing well in that respect now. The leaves are looking a little bit crazy. I'm not sure what's going on with that, but hopefully, she'll start growing, and she'll grow out of it. I guess we'll have to wait. And see what happens. I have added an additional 100Watt UVA/UVB lamp, as the uppermost canopy of Acapulco Gold is blocking pretty much everything in the tent. Hopefully, this will aid the shorter plants in surviving until I can harvest it. There will be so much more space and lighting. Can't wait! 😅 Here is what I did this week. 25.9.25: I watered with 1.5L of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.5 with; 💜 Sea K PH: 6.5 PPM: 565 The fungus gnats have really increased since I did a watering of the whole tent. I have some more sticky traps set out, and I will not water for several days. Once it has dried the top soil, I will add some more Diatomaceous Earth to the top 5cm. Thanks for checking in this week, and see you in the comments 👌💚🙌🧡😁

🌸 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.

What a crazy week, growmies. It’s amazing to see how fast the early flower phase kicked in right after the first pistils showed up. The girls were obviously more than ready after a 10-week veg, but honestly I can only speak in superlatives about them. The stretch is absolutely insane(15cm this week), and it really takes all our skills to keep the canopy even especially since we’re running two different strains in the tent. We’ve been doing aggressive bend-overs / tie-downs every other day just to keep the canopy under control. To keep up with their appetite, bumped the watering up to 4 liters and they happily took it both times. Will stick with a simple routine: one plain watering, one feeding. We’re already seeing some frost coming in, which is great this early in flower. 😄❄️🌱 Light intensity:85% on 40cm. Vpd: 1,1-1,35kpa

- Been flushing for 3 days now. Still showing more purple tones, not much yellowing yet. - This will be my last post before harvest! Can't wait!

I had to defoliate the very Bushy short super critical. She has a ton of Budsight/preflower on her they were all just drowning in leaves . Did that Yesterday. 9/4 . So far she took it well . And all those budsights are now exposed to beautiful light. But lets see during the week if she Will get any set back the Lil Girl

Gently dropped in a scrog with the biggest squares I could find to prop up or tie off heavy branches on #2. Used it to spread out #1 a bit but this late in the game tried to avoid as much pulling and bending as possible. #1 finally picking up some weight. This one has more of a spear formation. Guessing about 4-5 weeks left. Super frosty and smelly though. #2 just a tank. Nothing but dense golf balls. My goal was 8oz per plant and feel pretty confident this might be closer to 10ish. I'm guessing about 21ish days. Planning on deploying Winter Frost a week from today. Topping of with 80% strength solution kept EC level between changes.. So tough to do these things justice in pics and videos.

She's starting to bulk up, and I've cut my nutrients back in anticipation of the flush. She is a beauty and I love the colors she is displaying. I'm starting to get a distinct smell of burnt tires and rotten organic from her, with just a hint of sweetness. I love the smell! I added some plant ties this week to hold some of her branches up. Many of her branches are starting to droop under the weight of the buds, but nothing I can't handle. No problems this week and she is looking great.

Start woche 2 in flow. Jetzt geben sie richtig gas👌😋 Werd das nächstemal dünger auf flow umstellen.🤔 mal schaun..... Die vitalsten und saubersten stecklinge gibts wie immer hier bei ROOTS-FARMS. If you know you know.....tumi getestet

Another good and bad weed. Bad: Lost a LED and PC due to power surge!! Might be time to consider a proper UPS. Some issues with drain system changes, first iteration dumped 10 gallons of nutes into tent due to leaky fitting. Second iteration dropped another 10 gallons outside of tent due to the hose slipping out of nute res when draining. Some lessons learned. Good: Drain system finally hammered out properly, working great with no issues. No more grow room swimming pools. Ramblings: Humdity was nice and high in tent for some reason; probably something to do with nute swimming pool. Floors are nice and clean now, almost like they were freshly mopped. Ordered a samsung quantum LED light for replacing the fried LED. Installing for next week and flowering cycle switch. Overall the plants look healthy and no real issues despite my many attempts on killing them. The blurple vs white pics; was playing with HDR setting on camera; much better without purple.

This has been one of the easiest grows I had so far. The feeding was the key. Amending with a ‘Grow’ amendment(rich in Nitrogen) and supplement with Bloom liquid nutrients. Watering as often as possible and using RO water. Even though I had a pest invasion the girls did great.

Absolutely LOVE this strain. She has only been curing for a little over a week but I had to try her. She is one of the 3 most potent strains I have ever consumed, tastes like grapes on the inhale, and then on the exhale it tastes like a classic chemdawg, piney and gassey. You will feel the effects by the time you finish exhaling. I lover her so much I am going to run her back after I take a little break to travel. The only thing I regret with this grow is that I used much too small of a final container. No fault of the genetics, it was all me. I will run her back in a 12.5 gallon container and see what happens. My goal is to run 2 photoperieods every year, and get a Kilogram off each plant. Might be somewhat ambitious but I enjoy challenging myself and improving. I cannot wait to squeeze this lady, but I want to give her a few more weeks in the jars first. I will post some videos down the line. If anyone wants a quick pound or two of some potent ass indica leaning flower, this is your girl. I honestly don't know how I could even bring myself to grow another autoflower after smoking this lady.....She blows every auto I ever grew out of the water.

Sticky Mango Auto — Week 4 Update Grower: Stoney Stark / Little Lilly Farms Stage: Late Veg → Early Flower Transition ⸻ Growth Overview By Week 4, a noticeable size difference has developed between the two plants. One plant is nearly double the size of the other, while the smaller plant has entered early flower first, showing visible white pistils. This staggered development is not uncommon in autoflowers and appears to be influenced by early root-zone moisture differences. The larger plant remains in late vegetative growth, while the smaller plant is clearly transitioning into flower. ⸻ Moisture Management & Wicking Adjustments 2/1 Signs of overwatering observed. Pots were placed on stands to remove them from the wicking rope and mat. The absorbent pad was removed from the pot showing more stress, while the healthier plant remained on the mat. After ~11 hours, both plants were returned to their wicking material. 2/2 Plants continued to show signs of excess moisture. Both were again placed on stands to fully disconnect from the wicking ropes. 2/3 Decided to extend dry-back by another 24 hours to allow the root zone to re-oxygenate. These adjustments helped slow water uptake and encouraged healthier root respiration before flower onset. ⸻ Flower Initiation 2/5 First signs of flower observed — white pistil hairs visible. 2/6 Smaller plant clearly showing pistils. Both plants were low-stress trained by tying down branches to open structure and manage height differences. ⸻ Feeding Log — 2/6 • Total volume: 1 gallon (split evenly) • Amount: ½ gallon per plant • PPM: 877 • pH: 5.9 Nutrients (per gallon): • Armor Si — 1 ml • Micro — 5 ml • Grow — 2 ml • Bloom — 4 ml • CaliMagic — 1.5 ml • Floralicious Plus — 1 ml ⸻ Nutrient Strategy & Purpose (Week 4 Transition) Armor Si (Silica) Used to strengthen cell walls and improve stress resistance. Especially important here due to recent moisture stress, training, and the upcoming stretch phase. Micro Provides essential micronutrients (iron, manganese, zinc, copper) that support chlorophyll production and enzyme activity. Keeps growth balanced as the plant shifts metabolic focus toward flowering. Grow (Reduced) Nitrogen is still needed, but at a lowered rate. This supports continued leaf function without pushing excess vegetative growth, which can be counterproductive once flowering begins—especially for the smaller plant already showing pistils. Bloom (Increased) Phosphorus and potassium are ramped up to support flower initiation, root signaling, and early bud site development. This helps both plants transition smoothly despite their size difference. CaliMagic Calcium supports cell division and structural growth, while magnesium is essential for chlorophyll production. Critical in coco, especially during stretch and early flower when demand increases. Floralicious Plus Provides organic acids and bioactive compounds that enhance nutrient uptake, improve root efficiency, and help buffer stress from training and environmental adjustments. ⸻ Notes Going Forward With one plant entering flower ahead of the other, feeding will remain balanced but conservative on nitrogen while continuing to support early bloom development. Moisture management will stay a priority to prevent further root stress and ensure a smooth transition into full flower.

Seeing the daily stretch going into flower for the first time is really amazing. I did a bit of lolli popping and defoliation to promote some more upward growth.
