Die Ladys beenden morgen Ihre 4. Woche und haben mal wieder extrem an Masse und Wachstum zugelegt. Der Start in die 5. Woche mit Vorblüte und bereits die ersten Streches. Verwunderlich finde ich, dass die kleinste mit dem kleinsten Top am längsten braucht um in die Blüte zu gehen 😄 aber das wird auch noch 😎 Ab morgen bin ich für zwei Wochen im Urlaub und ein Freund wird sich um das Gießen kümmern. Ich gehe davon aus das alles gut wird. Sie wurden nun zum zweiten mal entlaubt, die unteren Blätter wurden entfernt als auch Triebe die sich nicht optimal entwickelt haben. Wenn ich wieder komme werden sicherlich die ersten Terpene zu riechen sein 🙏🏽 Lasst gerne ein Like da!

Gelonade is gently growing, with a nice lemon smell. I have a feeling this plant is going to give me popcorn flowers. (Maybe due to the high heat 🤷‍♂️) I always found the buds quite thin from the beginning of flowering. Despite that, it looks healthy. More in the next episode 😎 Milky Way: Also growing very good, Nice smells, seems quite heat-resistant. The pistils are starting to turn color 😎

Gorilla Runtz is probably my favorite plant in the tent so far. I love how close the nodes are being packed also I love that the nodes are starting to be every other and not on the same spot this helps the buds super stack It’s day 41 from seed and all of the plants are really thriving

📆 Week 1, 6-12 May 2024 6 May - 3rd sprout appeared. Waiting for main root to appear before transferring. 8 May - Main root appeared on the 1st sprout, transferred to its permanent home (see pictures). 9-12 May - Observed and watched the seedling grow. 📑 Transferred seedling into permanent Deep Water Culture, 2 gallon system. I’ve always had the best response when the main tap root appears prior to this process, it helps to ensure success. This plant seems to be getting off to a slower start, but steady. All seeds germinated, sprouted and became seedlings. I’ll be finding homes for the other 2 as my grows are limited by space and number. Another reason I like to only germinate a single seed at a time and primarily why it needs be viable. “One good seed is all you need”. 🍶 8 May initial nutrient solution started 🍽️ 8 May initial feeding schedule started 💧 Using reverse osmosis water with EC/TDS at 0 🐉 Nutrient solution EC 1.0 at 72 degrees F 🔆 Light power at 50%, DLI 12-15 canopy coverage at 18hrs 😤 Using PYPABL, Air Pump, 400GPH That is it for this week. Thanks for the look, read and stopping by.

Die Blüten haben deutlich an Volumen gewonnen. An fast allen Pflanzen werden die ersten unteren Segelblätter gelb. So lange es bei diesen bleibt, werde ich nicht die Düngermenge erhöhen. Ich warte bis sie fast selbstständig abfallen und nehme sie weg. Leider ist das Wetter nicht auf unserer Seite. Da geht bestimmt noch mehr. Ein paar Wochen haben sie noch. Zum Ende der Woche hat der Wasserbedarf deutlich abgenommen. An dem Punkt habe ich auch den Big Bud Dünger abgesetzt. Die nächste Zeit werde ich nochmals das Batboost und Bloom hochfahren.

These girls are busting out the seams. Giving them heroic doses of Calmag and molasses to finish the job off. I just did a Trichome check and we're at 5-10% amber so they are ready to be pulled. These photoperiod plants are ready in under 100 days. The smell is wildly pungent .. thankfully I have my exhaust venting outside for the whole world to enjoy ☮️🇨🇦

**EDIT** just an FYI... SmokieMcPot wants NOTHING to do with Seedsman!! Appreciate the response I got from them after replying to one of their spam mailers in dm... lets me know everything I need to know about their company... I'll continue to plug breeders/vendors that I feel deserve the advertising. I won't EVER plug a Seedsman bean! How time flies... Start of week 6 is it?? I feel I've put these girls a week behind, but then again I'm sure they'll bounce back just as hard as they have already. I just keep stressing these bitches out 🤣. so far have ive topped both, supercropped TF out of em (should have tied em down again too), swazz'd (to an autoflower point I guess)... what else can I do to hurt these girls feelings?? I can tell anyone that actually reads all of this I am going to drill their main right before harvest with the 48hr dark period.. Just put the net in today to keep a hold of em for now. Have another to use for when they need support. I plan on scooting this one up a bit as it stretches and branch them out some more. These branches are pretty stick like, so no more bendy bendy to those or snappy snap will occur. Day 35- nothing special that hasn't been mentioned already. Running the GHE wk 1 bloom feed at full strength (1237ppm total). Will continue to adjust strength depending on how much TDS drops in 12/24hrs. May update later with a vid to show how thick the main is. BTW I forgot to set timelapse for day 34, so the carnage and immediate aftermath won't be added to the week unfortunately. Day 36- i accidently farted while working in the closet tonight... i think i may have to burn everything in there now and start from scratch.. it was THAT bad!.. i dont think a million apologies will make up for making these girls inhale THAT, nor flush it out of their systems. damnit!! Day 37- woke up to a puddle in the catch tray!!! couldn't find it so i ripped out the net. didnt really want it in there yet, but was helping with a few branches. ended up being the silicon light protector pad in the back directing splash from the dripper next to it right out a LST hole i drilled in the bucket. easy fix.. RES change tonight. same week 1 bloom medium strength since its the same as week 2 formulation. ended up being 1327 after PH corrections. water started off 300ppm calmag and started using hydroguard again since the h2o2 did the trick a while back and we're in the clear. plants looking awesome, and have another 19 days before another major defol. uploading vid of a new system im working on as a teaser for the next grow... its far from finished... but the final product will be showcased later on. Bigger version of this waterfarm and its upgrades. Plus something a buddy wants me to try, but I'm waiting on the plated titanium mesh to show from China to finish that piece and bring it to show and tell for everyone to see. Day 38- PM RES change due to TDS drop from 1327 to 902 in 24hr. WG starting her droop letting me know. She sure does pump right after a fresh change. Must have went light on my measurements cause I ended up in the 1100's. As long as the ratio is right, that's what matters. I don't know exactly WHAT they're eating, just that they are. Adding anything could risk a lockout. Looks like WG is trying to tell me to back off on the Nitrogen?? Maybe dialing it back a bit on accident worked out for the best.. Mild defol tonight to open up those bud sites. supercropped a few more fresh stretch limbs on GC. Day 39- selective leaf plucking tonight. Bare minimum to keep things opened up. RES change later in their day, tomorrow for me. Will be lowering the nitrogen a hair since 2 or 3 of WG leaves are curled downward at the tip. Will update with the breakdown after the fact. Day 40- WG has been looking hungry since yesterday. Don't blame her cause RES is down from 1100's to mid 7's. Even with topping off with 300ppm calmag'd water around 2.5L a day now. Changed RES before they woke from their nap. Modified week 2 transition GHE "medium". Breakdown as follows: 2 gal calmag'd water - 300ppm Micro - 11.6mL Grow - 11mL Bloom - 14mL RES totals after PH corrections - 1253 @ 5.54. Day 41- WG looking hungry again... RES was already down 200 from its change not even 12hrs ago and down 1.5L. top off, PH adjust. changed RES during their night, right before "sun rise". same modified formula as yesterday. need to bump it up so EC doesnt drop as fast. GC need to pick up the pace, cause i dont want WG getting full on amber by the time GC is done. random plucks here and there to keep things kinda opened up without taking off too much ATM. few leaves on GC showing small brown spots, calmag def?? hmm.. already using 5mL per gallon to get to 300ppm.. *edit* looks like the start of a calcium deficiency. Odd, cause I'm adding 5ml/gal now as per the bottle. Raises ppm from 80 to 300. How much is too much?? Going to try 7mL per gal for a few days and see if we can nip this in the butt. As always. Thanks for stopping by to check out my current grow. If it's you're first time here, check out previous weeks for their daily updates.

🌙 Week 12 from Seed / Week 8 Flower — “The Dark Lady Rising” What a journey this has been. From that single seed born under a 12/12 rhythm, she’s proven that beginnings don’t define limits — they define character. If you’re just joining us, this White Widow from Zamnesia started life under an 11/13 shuttle — a true from-seed flower cycle. While most plants grow before they bloom, she began her story in full awareness of time, learning to balance energy from day one. The 12/12 rhythm teaches a plant to optimize every second of light — to focus not on size, but on efficiency, structure, and density. 🌿 This Week — The Transformation Deepens We’re now in week 8 of flower, and this girl is simply breathtaking. Her buds are dense, coated in frost, and carrying tones of deep green to near-purple, whispering that a darker finish is coming. The trichomes look like they’ve been dusted in starlight — thick, sticky, and reflecting light like ice in a warm glow. The aroma is growing stronger, rich with that unmistakable 90s soul — earthy, spicy, and nostalgic. Every breath feels like opening a time capsule from the golden age. The structure remains compact, balanced between strength and grace. Every cola is firm, symmetrical, and promising exceptional development over the final stretch. 💧 Feedings & Care She continues on her well-calibrated Aptus + Plagron routine: Aptus Regulator for balance and resilience CalMag Boost for structure All-in-One Liquid to sustain her metabolism Plagron Power Buds, Sugar Royal, and Green Sensation to enhance flavor, weight, and resin Even with nutrients in her pre-built soil, these light feedings help her push to full potential — especially under the demanding 12/12-from-seed schedule. 🌞 Environment & Observations The room continues to ride steady despite the season’s warmth — around 28–30°C, with humidity hovering near 55–60%. The VPD sits around 1.4–1.6, right in the sweet spot for flower stacking and trichome expansion. Lighting, managed through Trolmaster with Future of Grow and ThinkGrow LEDs, keeps her under a balanced spectrum with Emerson effect red cycles — 15 minutes before and after lights-on for maximum photosynthetic efficiency. 📸 Photography & Documentation Captured through the loyal Sony a6000, alternating between macro and standard lenses to highlight her best angles — from the full canopy’s dark silhouette to the icy micro-world of her trichomes. Each frame tells a different part of her story. 🌺 What to Expect & What Not In the coming weeks, we expect: Even deeper color tones — likely deep violet or burgundy Continued resin production, especially on sugar leaves Aroma intensification and the start of natural fade What not to expect: Big size changes. She’s already done stretching — it’s all density and maturity now. Harsh stress reactions — this girl has adapted perfectly to her rhythm. 🌍 Gratitude & Vibes To everyone reading, following, commenting — the lovers, the haters, the old souls, and the new wanderers — thank you for being part of this journey. To Zamnesia, for the genetics that bridge generations. To Aptus and Plagron, for the nourishment that sustains life. To Future of Grow, ThinkGrow, and Trolmaster, for the precision and control that bring consistency to creativity. And to this beautiful queen herself — for showing us what happens when you trust nature’s rhythm and let the light guide her story.

Day 50 - Starting week 8 and not much happening right now. Just watching the buds develop and the frost starting to come in. Still not much of a smell right now and hard to tell what kind of smell I am smelling. Didn’t do anything with her today but get some pictures and tucked the leaves. Day 52 - Thought she’d be ready for some water and nutes today but not quite, I’ll give it to her tomorrow. I did a heavy defoliation today and will probably be the only time I do it and will just remove dead or dying leaves from here on out. She’s definitely opened up a lot more so hopefully all is good with her. Day 53 - She pretty much dried up overnight and was ready for water today so she got 2 gallons of water and nutes. Seems to be doing ok after the heavy defoliation yesterday but still keeping an eye on her. She’s really getting frosty and smelly. Day 54 - Nothing much new today, just took her out for some updated pictures and adjust all the leaves and such to keep her opened up. Day 55 - Thought she would be ready for some water today but still a bit damn and will wait another day or two. Other than that, just took her out for some pics and tucked a couple leaves once she was back in the tent. Day 56 - The end of week 8 and had to give her two gallons of water and nutes today. As to remove a couple dead leaves from the bottom and just tucked the rest.

21 september She is really close. Weather forecast is pretty good the last part of this week. She has 3 or 4 more sunny days to go. After that she will be harvested in steps. Big first, bottom second. Probably couple of days in between. Same process for all my plants. MAROC was also harvested like this during the past week. It was a tense few weeks with all the rain we had. I had to cut out some buds to keep mould from taking over but i managed to keep the damage under control. Biggest surprise was that fungi now grow underneath the plant as well, not just in the buds😅 Lovely sight to see!!

Had about 8 leaves on the right hand side of sundae driver go yellow but I'm figuring she's just relocating nutrients 😌 buds are getting thicker everyday but of course not fast enough

TUESDAY 9/3: She's slow, but steadily putting on the pistils. Looks happy...👍 WEDNESDAY: I fed her about a half-gallon of water with bembe, big bloom, tiger bloom, beastie bloomz, armor si, and terpinator. I was at the site for several hours today, so I was able to move her into direct sunshine for an extra couple hours.😎 THURSDAY, FRIDAY, SATURDAY, SUNDAY: I was sick as a dog . 2-day stomach virus, followed by an acute pancreatitis attack... 😷 MONDAY: I gave her about a half-gallon of aquarium water with some bembe, beastie bloomz, and tiger bloom. I ordered a little grow light that should arrive tomorrow. It just pulls 210w at the wall, but is 3500k with a lot of extra 660nm diodes and gets pretty good PPFD numbers. I'm gonna finish her in my closet as close to that new light as I can..along with maybe 2 of my shortest stealthy outdoor hybrid girls...maybe increasing the PAR a bunch will hurry them the f!#$k up..

So I am harvesting sweet Bourbon Kush Autoflower. It grew really fast. It smells like a wooddy sweet Bourbon. Hence the name. 🤷. She grew great for me in coco/perlite in a 1.5 gallon Potter. She has a great smell, great frost. Looks delicious. I am super eager to try the results. Thank you Spider Farmer, and Super Sativa Seeds Club. 🌱🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱❄️🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g
