Day 22, 01.05.2024
- Not much to do but to further guide Erika II by imposing LST for better light usage of lower leaves
Day 23, 02.05.2024
- Again a slow day. Just put in some wooden pins to provide some more light to the lower leaves
- soil is again getting bone dry. Since I only water with about 10% of the pot volume I think it might be time already tomorrow, maybe in the afternoon / evening
- also raised the lights to ~30cm above canopies again
- Erika II is catching up in height - maybe I can remove the lifting box in a couple of days
Day 24, 03.05.2024
- decided to give the ladies some water inkl. a fertilizer cocktail (~500ml each)
- bought a couple of longer wooden sticks to guide the leaves & branches. May install a scrog net just for better organization/ handling
- removed 2 leaves in total
- also I am now positive: Erika I is definitely going into flowering
Day 25, 04.05.2024
- Erika II catched up to Erika I in height so I removed the lifting piece. Now both plants are leveled on top and bottom (more or less)
- Decided to remove some leaves. I removed every leaf that a) pointed inwards plus b) covered other parts of the plant
- soil is again getting dry. Thinking about watering them in the morning
Day 26, 05.05.2024
- Gave a round of water & nutrition: 500ml each
Day 27, 06.05.2024
- Judging from the timelapse of the past days (see video!) I recognized: 500ml each second day might not be enough (mind you: it is only ~10% of the pot volume). Also after feeding the growing seems to explode :D (I fed for example on 05.05., ~17:00 hours). So I decided to give another round of drinks this evening (400ml each inkl. Fertilizer) at 20:45 which is around 24h after the last feeding.
- Just realized: I did not measure their heights in quite some time. At end of week 4 both are clocking in at 27cm from top of soil.
- Both showing now that they are ladies clearly - so I declare "End of Veggie" Day.
- Removed 1 small bud on the lower part of Erika II. Also removed 1 leaf at Erika I that pointed inwards & blocked light.
- Raised the lights to match 30cm above canopies again
Day 28, 07.05.2024
- not much to do but to watch the ladies explode in height: they gained about 4cm in 2 days :)
- watering is going to happen tomorrow
This day also concludes week 4.

Week 7 was all about letting her shine on her own. On Day 43, I gave her a full-strength compost tea after a solid dryback to recharge the soil. The next day, I released all of the LST ties completely — she held her shape beautifully, so I went ahead and cleaned up the lower fluff with a light lollipopping to boost airflow. I also spotted some gnats, so I laid down a solid layer of DE across the topsoil. On Day 44, I refilled her auto-watering base and tucked a few fan leaves to keep light reaching the inner sites. The following morning (Day 46), I gave her a Big Bud feed at 2.5 ml per gallon and refilled the base again. I also started using a pH kit to bring my feed water into the 6.2–6.5 range, which I’ll be doing consistently now. Trichomes are building up across the sugar leaves, pistils are still mostly white, and her structure is solid without needing any ties. By the end of the week, I noticed a few small splash marks from previous feeds and a couple tiny speckles on a top leaf — likely early light stress, so I’m keeping an eye on it. Overall she’s deep in mid-flower and stacking up beautifully. Week 8 should be a frosty one.

Familia, estoy convencido de que esta variedad va a predominar del resto 🙈.
No ahora en serio una gran variedad para cultivadores novatos, puedes plantarlas directamente a maceta y no se espigarán 3/3 comprobado.
Parece muy sencilla de cultivar, controlamos ph , temperatura y humedad que estén en sus respectivos valores.
Se ven bastante sanas, pronto tocará hacer algún trasplante iremos viendo próximamente

6.12.25.
6th week of flower started on 6.9. Buds look good but damn this plant got stunted! Still trying my best to get the best end result but feels like quicksand this grow. Can’t wait for next grow!
Thanks for checking out grow

Growing great.
Drinking a gallon every 2 to 3
days. Posted a bunch from through the week.
shes starting to fill in
the empty spaces in little nugs and
ive never got to watch this day by day
before so im having a great time right now
its off though that she still doesnt smell like much
when you put your nose to her but when you touch some the
leaves or touch the bud itself it smells pretty dank on your fingers
Wondering if it will get louder as she finishes up

I did an extended vegetation on these girls and I topped them a couple of times, to which they responded well. It is day 127 (18 weeks total), but only end of Week four of flowering. They are looking beautiful and very nice size, considering they are only about half way through flowering.

So we started feeding them. just some organic growth by BAC and some Calmag. Mostly around the sides of the pots to encourage the roots and start the Microlife overall. We have used nice lukewarm water and added some sugar sirop to activate all the wee beasties.
The growth last week was phenomenal although one is going faster than the other. For this reason I changed them around, should climate on that spot have anything to do with that.
Now we are looking at other XL runts diaries, to learn from the best performers and copycat their methods to maximize yields with this setup.
We will decide if we will just LST them or give them a top... Have to be quick tho, these ladies will flower soon...
Thank you for checking my grow, hope you are successful on yours and Il be checking you out in coming days as I have a little more time.
Big hug as always and see you next week!

Siamo arrivati alla 8 settimana,le piante dimostrano una forza incredibili,sono le piu grandi che abbia mai fatto.é successa una cosa incredibile,in un vaso c'erano due piante che sembrano essersi fuse assieme diventando tipo un gogeta della marijuana,questo sembra avergli dato una forza incredibile,riuscendo a raggiungere i 2m di altezza senza essere entrata completamente in fioritura,crescerà ancora,per essere indoor hanno raggiunto dimensioni da record,é una pianta che ha bisogno di MOLTO spazio

I can't stress enough how aggressive some plants are when it comes to needing insoluble nutrients! I was seeing light bleaching and yellowing of new leaves, thinking it was heat and light intensity. After transplant into much bigger pot with heavy amendments and a few days time, plant is fully green and almost as tall as I am! Pistils are pink/red/white. Aroma is quite subtle yet but doesn't have the typical Marijuana scent, more like handling a literal strawberry plant and those strawberry candies that have the gel inside when the room gets humid after watering.
Structure is sturdy but side branches have stretched alot. I feel that this plant will have fewer budsites but those flowers will grow full and dense. I can't wait but will give this plant maybe another week of veg light hours. I'm at 13 right now and with the recent addition of a 24W UVa bar I custom made and the Emerson Effect still, transition should be quick but I honestly don't know...maybe my spectrums are keeping this plant vegging? Idk
All I know is this is an awesome plant that really has no issues still but now I know to keep up on fertilizers.
1.5" of vertical growth each day and plant keeps showing me each morning that it wants more water and ferts! Every day, full strength nutes and it doesn't burn! I am seeing very clear runoff so ferts are sticking and being used while the Molasses is chelating whatever might runoff. This is good!! PH stable right above 6@ feedings, next day down to 5.95. I just can't get over the never ending changes in aromas this plant gives off; today being fresh HoneyCrisp apples!
I took off 30 minutes off lighting schedule so now the rest of this week should be fast, then slow. We might see pom-poms next week.

Welcome to week six! 🌱 Week five was a complete success – all parameters are perfectly aligned. I’ve increased the water conductivity to a solid 3000 and bumped the CO2 level up to 1200 🌿. Light intensity is now set at 1400 µmol in the center and 1000 at the edges, which will keep the plants strong in their generative state 🌞. I’ll maintain these levels until the end of the third week and then start slowly removing the large fan leaves to ensure the buds get plenty of light 💡✨.
I’m also trying something new to activate the “Emerson effect” 🌄: I’m running the deep red lights for 5 minutes before sunset and for another 5 minutes after the day ends. This should give the plants a final boost in photosynthesis, helping to maximize their growth potential! Everything’s looking fantastic so far! The Black Cherry has rooted well across different experimental setups, and at the end of the grow, I’ll provide a full report on the best care techniques for both strains 🌺👌.
Willkommen in Woche sechs! 🌱 Die fünfte Woche lief perfekt – alle Parameter stimmen. Ich habe die Leitfähigkeit des Wassers auf satte 3000 erhöht und den CO2-Gehalt auf 1200 angehoben 🌿. Die Lichtstärke beträgt jetzt 1400 µmol in der Mitte und 1000 am Rand, was dafür sorgen wird, dass die Pflanzen stark im generativen Zustand bleiben 🌞. Ich werde diese Werte bis Ende der dritten Woche beibehalten und dann langsam damit beginnen, die großen Sonnensegel zu entfernen, damit die Blüten ordentlich Licht abkriegen 💡✨.
Zusätzlich probiere ich etwas Neues aus, um den „Emerson-Effekt“ zu aktivieren 🌄: Ich lasse das tiefrote Licht 5 Minuten vor Sonnenuntergang und 5 Minuten nach dem Ende des Tages weiterlaufen. Das sollte der Photosynthese einen letzten Schub geben und das Wachstum der Pflanzen maximal fördern! Bis jetzt sieht alles fantastisch aus! Die Black Cherry ist in verschiedenen Versuchsreihen gut angewachsen, und am Ende des Grows werde ich einen ausführlichen Bericht darüber abgeben, wie sich die beiden Sorten am besten pflegen lassen 🌺👌.

Some nice branching.
I can tell these girls are about to explode and bush out.
We should be seeing some nice big bushy plants in a couple weeks.

Weekly update. Sorry it was a late update this week I was out of town (Bizcon2024). Wow have they grown, I'd say doubling in size. I've upped the watering to 1000ml daily, this week I'll do a major defoliation and lollipoping. All in all Happy Growing
