Week 3: Mid-Flowering Stage
Welcome to the seventh weekly update of our cannabis cultivation journey in Germany! As we progress into the third week of flowering, our strains—Pulp Friction, Cookies Haze, Eleven Roses, Poddy Mouth, Critical Lemon Kush, and OG Kush—are flourishing with vibrant buds and continued growth.
Key Developments:
1. Bud Development:
- The buds have significantly increased in size and density, filling out along the branches.
- Trichome production is becoming more pronounced, indicating the onset of resin production.
2. Environmental Management:
- Maintained stable environmental conditions with temperatures ranging between 20-26 degrees Celsius and humidity levels around 40-50%.
- Ensured adequate ventilation to prevent humidity buildup and maintain airflow around the plants.
3. Nutrient and Watering Regimen:
- Continued to provide a balanced nutrient solution through the AutoPot system, adjusting as needed based on the plants’ flowering stage.
- Monitored soil moisture levels closely to prevent overwatering or underwatering, ensuring the roots receive optimal hydration.
4. Support and Maintenance:
- Supported the plants’ structure with additional ties and stakes to prevent bending or breaking under the weight of developing buds.
- Continued to prune away any yellowing or dead leaves to maintain plant health and focus energy on bud production.
Growing Medium and Setup:
- The plants thrive in a blend of living soil, coco coir, perlite, and clay pebbles, enriched with mycorrhizal fungi cultures for enhanced nutrient uptake.
Next Steps:
- Monitor the development of buds and trichomes daily to determine optimal harvest time.
- Adjust feeding and watering schedules based on plant responses and environmental conditions.
- Prepare for the final stages of flowering, focusing on maximizing bud growth and resin production.
Stay tuned for next week’s update, where we’ll discuss the late flowering stage and preparations for harvest. Feel free to ask any questions or share your experiences in the comments below!

🏆 Eternity Grow Cup 2025: Plagron and Zamnesia 🏆
Strain: Runtz - Zamnesia Seeds
Our girl is doing great! It's day 43 since sprouting, and 13 days since we switched the light to 12/12. She's grown significantly, with many branches stretching upwards. Given how many there were, I decided to trim her and removed about 10 thick and thin branches. I’m not sure how this will affect her, but I'm hoping to get fewer colas, though thicker and denser ones.
We don’t waste anything from the pruning. The leaves that we cut off are frozen, then crushed in a blender. We mix the resulting mass with water, let it sit, and then water the plant with this solution. Additionally, we finely chop the leaves and mix them into the top layer of the soil, a practice called mulching. This way, we recycle everything and make full use of the plant material.

Season 2 is officially underway and so excited for this grow. Growing 4 plants, but space is a lil limited. Growing in an 80x80cm so using small pots. 2x 8l and then 1x 5l and 1x 4.7l (if you wanna be exact lol).
This time I decided to experiment a bit.
I'm testing 2 different soils, both in 8l pots, both Purple Punch Auto by Fastbuds, both in airpots. Their names are Lily and Robin.
Also testing fabric bags against airpots. Both in same soil, both in 5l pots, both Wild Dwarf Auto by Bulk Seed Bank (that was the plan but now it's 1 WD and another Purple Punch). Their names are Jess and Cece.
For this one, Cece, had the seed in water for a few hours and then paper towel and then in 5l airpot.

What to say, every time I find myself writing about this plant, I spoke in pure romanticism, a little because I love the story and the way to do Franco the other little as his friends are honoring the memory really seriously than Full emotion because when a friend goes away you want especially bring her memory forever. Great Arjan besides being king of cannabis if a king in person, I would love to know them I admire the story of the strain hunters a lot. The Franco's Lemon Cheese, indeed I am one of which a majestic vveraeNeNe, is very very very inflated with violet nuances is very good very beautiful full of stuffing and trichomi will be ready in 7-8 weeks we are almost seeing the first colors and I would like to lend you My nose to smell it.

The Fruity Donutz have finally stopped stretching and are now fully growing their buds. The two plants are two very different phenos where one is turning into a beautiful purple lady. The ladies are very thirsty and I water them two times per day just to keep up. Overall they look very healty and the buds are developing fast. Can't wait to see how they grow this week!
🌿🌿🌿 Mid-week update
Because this strain only has 8 to 9 weeks from seed to harvest I started with a little bit of Green Sensation already to support the blooming. The two plants are developing quite differently. The plant in the back is producing lots of trichomes, even covering the smaller fan leafs as well as the sugar leafs. It would be cool to have leafs with thick resin trails at the end f this grow ✌️. The plant in the front doesn't produce that much trichomes just yet, but it has beautiful purple buds and sugar leafs. Even though they're very different in appearance, they are both beautiful.
The smell is getting stronger by the day and *spoiler alert* it's damn fruity 😅!

As of the afternoon of May 15th, I have begun some LST with binder clips/safety pins and some soft pipe cleaners. With the exception of the Critical Jack, I think most of the plants are showing some signs of excess Calcium and Nitrogen so I am going to take CALiMAGic out of their feeding regimen and cut the nutrients down to 1/4 strength as of this afternoon. The Dinafem Critical Jack Auto is now the tallest plant and seems to be the healthiest one of the bunch at this point, she keeps amazing me every day. The Seedsman White Widow Auto is not very tolerant to feedings and its stems & branches seem to be weaker than the others; very bushy. Both the Dinafem Industrial Plant Autoflowering CBD and the Mephisto Ripley's OG are very healthy but are growing very squat and bushy -- which made trying some LST for the first time a bit more challenging!
As of the evening of May 17th, I noticed pre-flowers on both the Critical Jack and the Ripley's OG. The Critical Jack is certainly stretching out right now! The White Widow and the Industrial Plant CBD look like they should be getting pre-flowers by the end of the week. The Critical Jack has taken to being under the ViparSpectra 600 light more than the MarsHydro Mars II 1200 light -- something to keep an eye on?

Hello everyone and welcome to week 9 and day 57 for these two Fast Buds Strawberry Bananana Autos.
These two have gone mad!
Beyonce is 81cm tall and well into flower as you can see.
Solange on the other hand was 118cm tall and had passed the light so I super cropped her two tallest colas a few days ago. She is now 98cm
Fertigated 10l 4 days ago and 7.5l today.
Day 60: Fertigated 10l
Day 62: The plants are now too big and/or heavy with bud to move out of the tent to photograph, and so with thanks to @growbigorgohome who suggested it, I have got a selfie stick to do in-tent photography. It's not great but it's better than nothing! Hopefully the videos will show plenty of details. Anyway I am starting to routine again now, the plants haven't gone more than 3 days without feeding, and I should be back to every other day again now. These two girls are really amazing. Beyonce is way ahead in terms of bud development, but Solange vegged longer and stretched more she was so massive I had to super-crop two colas! Anyway they are really motoring along now, I think Beyonce will be ready 2 weeks before Solange. Despite it is only day 62 we are rapidly approaching the end game here.

Okay so I’ve been slacking a bit on the grow-diaries, only because I’ve had a lot going on and also because I don’t feel obligated to do so because this isn’t a sponsored grow. It’s been nice to have a little break but I think I’m ready to come back at it full force again.
These girls are living their best lives, they are all the same age and they are all thriving. Floraflex nutrients, as well as some Silica, Regina-root, and a trichome enhancer called “Grease”!! Seems like the real deal. Watering every other day and let me tell you these girls are very thirsty. Defol as needed!
My new HLG Blackbird lamp fixture is out of this world. My 3 autos that you can also find in my profile absolutely blew up. I typically fit 4 autos in my 3x3 but now it’s essentially one Purple punch from Fastbuds and I had to cram 2 more inside basically because they are going crazy. Unfortunately I had to move them from under the blackbird and put them under a HLG350R and they are still going crazy. Basically what I’m saying is HLG Lamps=Crazy growth and amazing lamps!! HLG has a lifetime customer!
That’s it for now but check in next week to see the progress!
Thanks for tuning in. Until next time and as always, Stay Smokey my Friends!!! 💨💨💨

Que pasa familia, vamos con la cosecha de estas Gorilla cookies Auto de FastBuds.
Por dónde empezar, es una autofloreciente que es muy fácil de cultivar, tiene un periodo corto de crecimiento y de floración igual no es largo.
En cuanto a la alimentación , pues la aplique una vez por semana y a sido suficiente, se a comportado muy bien en interior, la flor pues no es muy prieta porque no deja de ser una autofloreciente, pero es una flor que está bien explotada y que va repleta de tricomas.
El periodo de luz pues de principio a fin a 18 horas, fue sucficiente para completar el ciclo de vida como esperaba.

Hi there peeps,
This week went great and they are really growing vigorously. The GSC is really stalky and is the hardest to controle but I'm managing. On the other hand, the Runtz requires little care to grow uniform and is a breeze to grow so far. The Monster Zkittlez has recovered nicely from her stress and is catching up with the other 2. I could not be more pleased atm.
I also found out that if I feed with BioCanna Vega, the solution's ph levels out at 6.6 so that is one less worry.
Next week it's switching time so stay tuned.
Have a good week growmies!

Germination 07/09/2022
Hi to all the old and new growers out there. Spring has barely started but I'm so AMPED to start again. My first grow attempt was a disaster. I started to early for the season. I wasted some good seeds and those Blasted 🐌 🐌 snails messed up everything. Got up started again and took it as a learning curve. I had 1 seed left from the previous attempt and this had to be the golden ticket.
The first important thing I learned was getting to the correct pH. Used a 1 liter jug not knowing that the pH down was very concentrated substance. Added 1ml of pH down to tap water with a base of 8.5+ pH and brought it down all the way to less than 4.5 pH. I probably tried like 5 times and realized that a single drop made a difference of about 2 pH. I got the feel of it and had to source a better water supply. I had the option of using tap water but didn't have the time to do a 24 hour airstone run ever time I wanted to water the plants. The local water supply shop was a better option. I got a consistent 6 pH and the price was decent.
The Snail 🐌 Problem... I have a plan
for those F**kers.
We have 2 very nice hydroponic shops in my city. Here's the supply list:
Freedom Farms Seed Starter
GHE pH Up
Kushy pH Down
GHE pH Test kit
Freedom Farms 10 liter fabric pot
Simba Genetics: White Widow auto

Hello Growers and Tokers! 👋 👩🌾 🧑🌾.🔥💨
As soon as I walk into my grow room I can smell them and when I open the tent it's a slap in the face.
Though it's a lovely slap it isn't gentle, it's a 'where've you been?' slap. A 'welcome to Caramel city' slap. 😂😂
Jokes aside. This strain's aroma has me "Enamorado".
Pictures taken day 42 of flower.
The Green Sensation seems to be doing it's job.
Buds are really starting to fatten up fast and are looking very very luscious.
I should have started using it in week 4 so I'm a week late on that. *Made a little reminder for the next run.*
I can't seem to get a good shot of the buds but i'm working on it. Let's see if for next week I can get a good close up.
In flower I water with nutrients in every feed and every 10 days or so I water with only water and Enzymes to help break down the old roots, gives life to the microorganisms, helps out the new roots and helps to prevent root rot. It's great if your using mineral nutrients as there's times where those minerals stay stuck to the roots and can cause root burn.
I use alga based nutrients so I don't have a problem with that but I like to use it, I've noticed a great difference im flower before and after using.
We're getting closer and closer to harvest. 😬
"Sooo exciiited" (In Kevin Hart voice)
If you like the content check out the other strains sharing the tent. 😃
I'll catch y'all next week.
Take care out there!
One love Growers & tokers!

Ciao ragazzi e bentornati qui per i nuovi aggiornamenti della Mimorange 🍊
Settimana fantastica!💪
Le sorelle all arancia mi sorpendono giorno per giorno. Oltre alla super altezza di 160 cm, ormai raggiunta da quasi tutte e tre, i buds sono sempre più grassi ora misurano 2,5 cm quelli secondari e le apicali 3/3,5 cm.
Questa settimana si saranno allargati di 1 cm abbondante. Sbalorditivo😍
L odore è buonissimo. Un forte profumo dolce di mandarino pervade il naso appena apro il loro lato della tenda.🤤
Ho defogliato loro nel giorno 67 e ho allargato la numero 1 con un po di Lst nel giorno 70. I nuts rimangono invatiati.👍
Eh niente! Anche questa settimana è giunta al termine ragazzi.🤙
Grazie a tutti per aver guardato e restate sintonizzati per nuovi aggiornamenti.🙏
Buona settimana e felice crescita 🌱 🌱 🌱
