This week in my grow room has been full of developments. First, I added additional lights because I couldn't get the relative humidity (RH) under control. I ordered a dehumidifier, but it will take a few weeks to arrive, so I had to find a temporary solution. I also emptied the reservoir and refilled it with fresh water and nutrients. I secured the net to ensure it stays in place under tension. In two days, I plan to switch the light schedule to 12/12, hoping the plants will stretch a bit during the switch to avoid having overly large buds that aren't evenly spread.
Seventeen hours later, I decided to keep the lights on a 16/8 schedule for a few more days. The plants are starting to show signs of something happening, so I want to see how they develop. I will keep you updated on the progress. Then, I received a message from my supplier that the dehumidifier would arrive today. Great news—time to spice things up!
On June 2nd, the dehumidifier arrived, and I managed to get my Vapor Pressure Deficit (VPD) to 1.17! This is fantastic news, and I'm very curious how this will affect water usage. The dehumidifier seems pretty powerful, with water literally dripping out of the hose, so I'm no longer worried about high humidity levels. It's a shame it doesn't have a range setting, but I couldn't expect more for the price. I'm considering ordering the Dimlux Auxbox to set a working range and separate day/night settings. Thankfully, the dehumidifier has an auto-restart function after a power loss.
On June 3rd, the night is over, and while my values are now more stable, I haven't noticed any significant differences in water absorption. What I do notice is that the pots seem much drier. The difference in leaf temperature compared to the room temperature has increased slightly, now about a 2˚C difference, indicating that evaporation has increased somewhat. Despite the dehumidifier cooling the air, the room temperature has risen. This is explainable since dry air heats up faster than humid air. The CO2 heater is also running significantly longer. So, although there are no immediately visible differences, there are indeed some changes.
Today is the last short night of 8 hours, and tomorrow will be the first night of 12 hours. I am contemplating doing a 10-hour night first and will decide later tonight. After closely reviewing the video footage, I noticed some divergent colors on the leaves. My pH is currently 6.4, which I had adjusted to compensate for the low pH last week—a foolish decision in coco, I know. I plan to make videos of each individual plant for my records to investigate further. The light is too intense to inspect them up close, so the videos will help me get a better look.

week intel:
we getting close to end of ripening , this week i raised drought , Nitrogen and E.C stress by feeding them 2 times per week and raised e.c to 3 to cause real stress that will help increase terpenes production
stresses :
Nitrogen deficiency Stress by removing the fertilizers that has N in them
Drought stress via removing one meal in week
high E.C stress around 1.7 and the other feeding day 3.0 , 2 times a week
feeding:
no more Nitrogen
i feed them 2 times this week with this order :
day 1 : i feed them high with Bio-Bizz Top-Max + Feeding Booster about 850 ppm - 1.7 e.c to cause a medium e.c stress.
day 3 : no more feeding this day
day 5 : i feed them very high dose of Bio-Bizz Top-Max + Feeding Booster around 1500 ppm - 3 e.c to cause high e.c stress
guide of the week :
be patient in the last weeks, never hurry for harvest because its the time of ripening in last 2 weeks you should let plants to do their work
last weeks of ripening is the time to break the limits we should cause 3 stresses as i said above Nitrogen stress , Drought Stress , E.C Stress

I topped the 2 last plants and started LST on all of them without any problem. The growth was pretty impressive this week, especially for the Wedding Cheesecake which is clearly bigger then the others. I had to add some supports to compensate the height difference between the plants. I removed some leaflets here and there during the week to give some light to the lower branches without removing too much leaves. I increased the light power to 75%. I will probably give them another week and then switch to the 12h/12h schedule.
Plants heights at the end of the week :
-------------------------------------------
Gorilla Cookies : 29cm
Purple Lemonade : 22.5cm
Wedding Cheesecake : 37cm

14.3.25:
FastBuds Mystery seed grow #1 🌱
We're looking good, nice, strong, and healthy seedling. She started praying after the feeding today.
I watered a couple of litres over the last week. I've been watering around the whole pot to encourage root stretching and kick-start the dry amendments and feed the Mycorrhizae.
I left the first 2 inches around the seedling until today 🌱
Today, I watered with 500mls of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.2 with:
♡ Black strap molasses
♡ Ecothrive Biosys
18.3.25:
FastBuds Mystery seed #1 is 15 days old today.
She is 3 days ahead of my RQS Northern Lights, which I have topped or fimmed.
I planned to do this one, too, but it's not quite ready yet. Otherwise, she's looking very good.
We'll see how this week goes and hopefully get it done by the end of the week.
23.3.25:
FastBuds Mystery seed #1 is ready to be topped today. I went ahead with alcohol sterilised scissors and cut the two tiny leaves from the centre of the plant.
Everything went very well and a clean cut was made. The plant is looking great afterwards.
Thanks for checking in

7/7 17 days old. Calling this her first week of veg. She did not appear to be growing much for a few days after being transplanted. However in the last couple of days she has been putting on height.
Now that she is growing again it seemed like a good time to top her.
Topped her at the fifth node. A few of my previous grows I topped at the single leaves. This gave me two main branches that I just tied down. Then let all the branches grow up. Gave me a very uniform plant.
7/9 She has a very healthy dark green color. Her branches almost immediately started growing after being topped. I can see the difference in 2 days. Her nodes are very close together.
7/10. This lady has huge tits/leaves. Her leaves are so big they’re blocking out the light for the branches. I used some coat hanger to pull the leaves out of the way.
Really her leaves are huge for her age. They’re almost the size of my hands and I’m 6,3. I pulled 1 leaf off to help open her up some. I will do some reading on this strain. I believe as she gets older she will look more sativa. Right now she looks heavy indica.
7/11 She broke ground 21 days ago. She graduated into veg 4 days ago. This plant is growing very nicely.
7/14 25 days old. Gave her water with liquid kelp. Her branches are quickly growing to the top. Would love to do some defoliation but I’m not. Other than a few 3 blade leaves in the center. Absolutely love her dark green color.
So far the living soil is doing a great job. The company says just water. We will see.
Ethos Genetics is top shelf. My friend grows mostly Ethos and these plants are just amazing. I was hunting for old school so I didn’t grow any Ethos until now. Old school is gone. I have never saw buds like these Ethos. This plant needs to come out close to or better than my friends.
She is growing in organic living soil and her color is great. The only thing I added was myco supreme on her roots. The next time I water her she will get some liquid kelp and humic acid.
The plant is relying on the living soil to eat. So I want to make sure her root system is very healthy and able to process nutrients.

Definitely learning some lessons from the manifold attempt. I'd say I have to definitely train more horizontal on the original top but I'm pretty happy with how it's coming along. Looking forward to topping down to the 3rd node most likely tomorrow! With that being said, I'd imagine having the final set up could be a bit easier to train. Once I'm able to remove the second node it will open up a solid amount of space and light for the 1st node.
On another note I became extremely confident in regards to feeding. Dancing around 690-700PPM's seems to be working very well right now. Consistent PH at 5.9 as well.
Looking forward for the next week in regards to topping and training. Depending on training and pruning time, I'd like to flip within the next 2-3 weeks. Maybe sooner.
As always, any comments or suggestions are welcome!
Thanks!

Flowering slowly, likely due to the roots having low PH(4-5)..
I flushed her a few weeks back.. I'm done experimenting with nutrients for now; I had better results, with less issues with just using the basics.
*Special Nug picture - This Bud-site has a different shape/structure compared to every other nug on this plant.. Never seen this before, on any other strain.

Week 2- All 4 Cream Cookies are looking good. Very similar looking seeedings at this point. I harvested the larger plants that were in last weeks diary and moved all seedlings under my 315w CMH fixture. The fixture is 24" above the plants. I'm going to keep all 4 indoors in my tent for another week, then move 2 to the outdoor garden. I'd like to see 2-3 nodes before transplanting. I also have 3 gallon self-watering pots ready for transplanting the 2 that are staying in the tent. I've never used self-watering pots before, but 'The Rev' (from Skunk magazine and True Living Organics) swears by them. They don't actually water themselves, I'll still have to add water manually. But there is a reservoir at the bottom for the roots to be able to feed off of. Supposedly, once the root network is established to the bottom I'll be able to add water to the reservoir only.
I'm following the Fox Farm feeding schedule, but at 1/2 strength. So this week is Big Bloom only. I also added CalMag and some Recharge.
I'm starting another diary in a few minutes for the other plants I have going on. Look for it soon! 😉

*WEEK 1 DAY 6 OF FLOWER*
Flipped the light to 12/12 6days ago and started scrogging I also gave her quite a huge defol 5days after the switch for better light penetration and airflow, for the first week everday ill be checking on the canopy any tops that are growing too tall compared to others will be trained underneath the scrog net, resulting in even light penetration throughout the whole canopy giving lower buds better light and of course the main reason - keeping the plants small :)
started to implement the boost additives to boost K intake and i have also added a exhale co2 bag above the canopy to hopefully boost the co2 levels and promote faster, better growth!
the deficiency i mentioned in the last week of veg, is not looking to get worse or worsening hmmmm strange effected leaves have been removed and overall she looks great!
i dont wanna get to ahead of myself yet! as we still have a long way to go, but for my first run as from up to know i am pretty happy with myself and the growth of plant, i see so many growers with basic and even really bad deficiencys/diseases from early growth! even throughout there whole growth cycle... yes i have noticed a few weird things throughout the cycle but nothing extreme no NPK deficiencys so i am really pleased with this run! roll on the next ;)
Wish me further look guys, Lets Grow!

So this was a simple going grow!!! It’s strange how the hot so big under the light! I had one blue cheese under the same light and tent and it was way smaller!! Anyway 1 of these has come out perfect very happy the other two I’m not to sure the hairs were still pointing up but I really don’t have the time to have them going another week there already over the time they was supposed to be done but yeah I’d say out of 10 I’d rate this blue cheese growing experience a 6 out of 10 hopefully this improves when it’s dry!!!

FIRST DAYS
-------------
New week, new diet
The girls are getting 3+3ml of Grow A+B, and still 2ml of Voodoo.
Instead of 3 waterings of 1L, we are now doing 3 x 3L.
One of the girls has some minor burns, so I am keeping a close eye on that. An excess of nutrients seems unlikely to me, but I will see in a few days after this increase.
MIDWEEK
-----------
It's probably not just the Voodoo, but my girls have grown a lot this week. I think they like this little juice 😉The root system still has some work to fill the 15L of coco, but things are going well.
As for the small burns on the leaves, I think it's due to heat and/or wind stress: the temperature frequently rose to +35°C and the leaves were shaken by my fans, which were directed straight at them. I increased the speed of my filter and placed the fans facing the sides of the tent while increasing the air flow; we're back to an average of 30°C. To be continued.
But most importantly, the girls have developed 4-5 nodes... so it's training time! 👍
I know what many people think about topping autos, but I disagree; it clearly has the advantage of giving the plant an airy structure that is easy to control and produces denser buds when combined with mainlining and light lollipopping. My goal: a 6-branch structure, which may eventually develop a few side branches.
To achieve this, two toppings a week apart and some serious LST are needed. I'll try to film the whole process, training sess by training sess, and post the results here in a few weeks.
I'll also increase the nutrients to their final dose next week (4+4ml grow) and switch from Voodoo to B-52 (2ml).

Will gladly take any comments or criticism. Thanks for visiting!
Day 50 Started the week off with a nutrient change and just keeping an eye on growth and formation! Dropped the light down but will bring it back up if theres any burn. Temps are averaging 75F and haven't seen any issues.
Day 52 lowered the light to 10 inches above canopy and will see if it impacts negatively. I feel like she's getting too crowded.
Day 53 I feel like the buds are starting to thicken up. Some tops are frosting up but most aren't showing.
Day 54 Added more ph water to the reservoir.

this week you get shit pictures cause never any sun here.
plants are doing well, as soon as i flipped the pineapple had white hairs very next day.
the shiskaberry still has no white hairs but is stretching and catching up to the pineapple.
its only been a week since my mass defoliation and it looks like i didnt even trim anything( will have to re-trim week 3 of flower)
i also bought an ac infinity exhaust fan for better circulation,and i will be buying a dehumidifier this week.
i might start a scrog today ,its kind of late but if anything it will be support for the buds.

The plants start flowering last week and the light schedule is 12/12.
I feed the plant every day.
Hesi nutrients controls and correct the PH level, thats really helpful.
Let's see what size will be the buds after 2 weeks.

HARVEST DAY!
162 days after the sprout, and 117 days after the switch.
It makes almost 6 months!! What a never-ending journey!
I chopped down the princess and decided to place the colas on the usual hanging net without trimming them directly.
I just couldn't. Every cola requires at least 30-40 mins to be trimmed properly. I got something like 50 or 60 colas in total.
It's a total pain in the ass believe me!!! There are layers consisting in calyx, leaf, calyx, leaf, and so on. You basically need to work between every couple of small calyxes in order to remove the leaf in the middle, while being very careful to not cut down everything. It's insane!!!!!!
So.... just wait a little more for the final harvest and the smoke report.
They will come, but definitely not now!
In the meantime I uploaded some harvest photos and videos.
;-)
See you soon!!!
