2/12 Week 7 Hairs beginning to show up more each day and the growth tips are transforming. Continuing to encourage bushing by defoliating the top canopy every couple of days. Lots of bud sites in their future. Lowering Nitrogen by putting them on all Bloom nuets , prob should have done that weeks ago. 29 inches high no sign of slowing. No problems unless we hit 40 inches. Then I gotta think 😣 Don't see any reason to worry stretch should end in a week to 10 days or less and there are a few things I got up my sleeve. Actually these are the kinds of problems I signed up for and Ive nothing to complain about, this stuff is fun. 😁 Here's hoping for a big arsed harvest! I was asked why I am letting the lower end of the plants get so over grown. The idea is that this will slow down the upward growth and maybe get them to bush more later. When the room exists in the flower tent that will be cleaned up. Hitting them with the kangaroots again one last time in the morning to see if we can get those root balls expanded for bud building. 2/13 Pics Starting to get some height differences(less than 2 inches) between the plants under the LED and those under the HPS so I have changed the HPS out for a MH light to slow down the height gains in the flowering tent. Their nodes could use some shortening. Have other reasons but thats it for this grow. Hung a small 2700K 30 watt LED directly over Aeryn out of the path of the main light to give her just a bit more red spectrum. Not much but something. 2/14 Rearranged the tent to give better access to the photos and allow better hanging of the small LED and give a bit more light from the MH. Runoff tested on all plants and ranged from 550-600 ppm which just leaves us all kinds of room later for more nuets. Heck this is perfect 2/17 Stepping down the nuets slightly 2/19 End week note: Finally see some very slight nitrogen def on Aeryn so nuets back up, found the bottom end of of it. Folding in PK at a low dose Flipped week back to veg, only in flower the last day or so of the week

She has received finalpart at the end of week

🗓️ Week 12 complete – 8th week of flowering (late bloom) 🔹 General: Seriotica is now deep into late bloom. Buds are gaining more density and trichomes, and the scent is getting stronger day by day. She leans toward a creamy, earthy aroma profile – very rich and pleasant 🌬️🌿 🔹 Feeding: After a period of reduced EC levels, feeding was ramped back up this week. Input is currently at EC 1.65–2.0 / pH 6.3. Drain has built up to 3.2 EC, but the plant is still handling it well – no visible signs of overfeeding. No flush is being done yet – the final run with Flawless Finish is planned for around one week from now. 🔹 Observations – Seriotica Frosty, compact colas with light signs of EC accumulation, but overall still thriving ❄️ She’ll stay in the tent for about 10–14 more days before harvest.

Se secó bastante rápido. En 5 dias. Y metí todo en un frasco grande para que empiecen a curarse. Todo perfecto.

Seventh week, day 46, keeping on cropping and LST, dominant colas in #1 have been fimmed and #3 has been topped. The stretch should start within a few days. Feeding schedule is going to change just after the stretch.

This is actually my first time growing in Coco, so had a few issues in feeding at first.

🌸 GrowDiaries Update — Week 11 (Week 7 Flower) Permanent Marker Pheno #1 & #2 — Flower Week 7 Here we are again, my dear growers — week 11 from seed, and what a journey it’s been! Our two beautiful phenos continue to show their individual personalities: Pheno #1, the tall dreamer, still reaching for the moon; and Pheno #2, the compact queen, steady and strong in her deep greens. Both are truly thriving, expressing themselves with grace and power. 🌱 Quick Recap – From Seed to Now From the very first sprout to now, this grow has been a journey of observation, learning, and connection. We’ve seen perfect germination, vigorous vegetative growth, stunning branching, and a seamless transition into flower. We’ve tested light, temperature, airflow, and nutrition — keeping everything balanced with the organic Aptus program (Regulator, Top Booster, and CalMag), letting the soil and biology do their magic. ✨ This Week’s Focus — Trichomes, Terpenes & Color Explosion At week 7 of flower, nature begins to paint. Trichomes are swelling and clouding — a forest of frost starting to shimmer under the lights. Terpenes are coming alive, with rich, layered aromas filling the room: sweet, pungent, spicy, earthy. You can almost taste what’s to come. Flavonoids and anthocyanins are starting to express beautifully, especially on Pheno #1, which is showing the first touches of purple hues. Meanwhile, Pheno #2 remains loyal to her deep emerald tones — dense, resinous, and classic. ☀️ A Note on Light & Albino Tops Our big mama (Pheno #1) is stretching so close to the LED panel that her top is showing a touch of albinism — a bright, pale glow caused by intense light exposure. It’s not a problem; in fact, it adds a touch of uniqueness to her look. These light-stressed tops can sometimes develop special trichome patterns, and it’s fascinating to observe. A gentle reminder that even perfection has its quirks. 🌡️ Garden Conditions Temperature: High but stable with the AC in control. Humidity: Balanced despite the season’s challenges. Airflow: Excellent — a full dance of air and photons. Health: Exceptional. No bud rot, no major stress, just pure thriving energy. 🌍 Community & Gratitude The Dognabis Cup is in full bloom!

------GENERAL COMMENT------ As planed I lowered the base nutrient to 2ml, and took a break from Cal Mag, to release the N a bit, green is on point now. Tomorrow will catch up with the Cal Mag schedule as usual. Time for some overdrive, for the rest all good, girls are developing well and buds are getting bigger, no issues. Smelling delicious! Hope I had some Terpinator to give a go... ------SM.BB COMMENT------ BB is maturing faster you already can see I have cloudy Trichomes, she will be a fast finisher as it looks like...

Week 10: July 31st Weekly updates: - Stretch is taking off, same with bud formation, no smell really yet, did a good lollipop today, keep finding larf sites. - when stretch halts I am adding 1/3rd dose of monster bloom to one… maybe both.

7/22 Day 112 from sprout, day 58 of flower. Well, this was unexpected. I came home and found I have multiple branches falling over due to the weight of the buds. I got them all tied upright now, but I honestly thought I was harvesting shortly. Instead, they are still chugging along and packing on more mass. I removed a few more crispy leaves and at this point anytime I reach into the tent it’s impossible to not have my arm absolutely covered in resin. I suppose I can stop checking trichomes for now, it’s almost as if she hit a new growth spurt suddenly and clearly needs more time. This does throw a wrench into getting the Mac N Jack moved into the tent, but I’ve spent almost 4 months now growing this beauty; I can’t screw it all up now by harvesting too soon. 7/26 Day 116 from sprout, day 62 of flower. This is where Ethos says the Fanta Sea should be ready for harvest. As super pumped as I am to finally chop her down, if I’m honest with myself it’s just not there yet. Doing a trichome check says it’s getting closer, maybe around 50% clear, 50% cloudy, and a very small amount of stray amber here and there. So on we go. Leaves up top continue to fade and dry up, and as they get crispy I rip them off. Pretty sure I’ve heard Dr. Bugbee explain that in late flower it’s normal for the plant to pull extra phosphorous from the leaves, seeing as how we are pretty light on P using a 20-10-20 fertilizer. So I’ll keep letting her get her fade on while checking trichomes here and there and hopefully we’re close to the finish line soon. 7/28 Day 118 from sprout, day 64 of flower. Getting closer. I did a deeper dive into checking trichomes today, checking a few different top buds, a few different middle height buds, and a few way down below in larf territory. Up top was predominately milky, a small amount of clear, and a few ambers here and there. This progressed to more clear the further down I went. I’ll wait until Sunday before I check them again. I also did lower the light intensity just a hash mark under 75% to more simulate “fall”. Maybe silly, maybe not, but I’m trying it.

Best flowers in the whole grow forming with these runtz! Amazing amount of bud sites regardless of bud blood or bud ignitor both plants developed so many and flowers are looking amazing under the mars hydro eco (discontinued) along side the ts600’s got some amazing shots hope you like and will continue to impress!

had big bud over the weekend, The soil was very dry when I came in on Monday so give it 2 litres hopefully last the next day or 2. Still very tempted to defoliate but unsure if it is the right time or what to remove. Decided to try and defoliate it a bit. see if it has any impact. still a bit worried about things like this what wiht it being my first plant

Going nice;)))))))

Apologies for not updating last week, I have just been really busy! These last couple of weeks have been great - her growth is coming along very well. There are no signs of any deficiencies as of yet, what is your opinion! In regards to defoliating and lollipopping - what growth would you suggest I get rid off?

Two of the S.A.D. seeds did not germinate. I also used the water glass method to germinate these two. The other two were planted directly in Jiffys. The Bruce Banner unfortunately germinated a day earlier and had no light yet.
