Week 4: Late Flowering Stage Welcome to the eighth weekly update of our cannabis cultivation journey in Germany! As we enter the fourth week of flowering, our strains—Pulp Friction, Cookies Haze, Eleven Roses, Poddy Mouth, Critical Lemon Kush, and OG Kush—are approaching their final stages of development with impressive bud growth and resin production. Key Developments: 1. Bud Maturation: - The buds have continued to swell and mature, becoming dense and resinous. - Trichomes are now fully developed, with milky-white heads and some turning amber, indicating the approaching harvest window. 2. Environmental Management: - Maintained stable environmental conditions with temperatures between 20-26 degrees Celsius and humidity levels around 40-50%. - Continued to ensure adequate ventilation to prevent mold and maintain airflow around the plants. 3. Nutrient and Watering Management: - Adjusted nutrient levels to support late-stage flowering and maximize resin production. - Monitored soil moisture carefully, maintaining optimal hydration levels for the plants’ roots. 4. Final Care and Maintenance: - Continued to support the plants’ structure with stakes and ties to prevent branches from bending under the weight of mature buds. - Removed any remaining yellowing or dead leaves to promote airflow and redirect energy towards bud development. Growing Medium and Setup: - The plants have thrived in a blend of living soil, coco coir, perlite, and clay pebbles, enriched with mycorrhizal fungi cultures for enhanced nutrient absorption. Next Steps: - Monitor trichome development closely to determine the ideal harvest time based on desired effects (clear, cloudy, or amber trichomes). - Prepare for harvest by gathering necessary tools and supplies, such as trimming scissors, drying racks, and storage containers. - Stay vigilant for any signs of pests or diseases as the plants near maturity. Stay tuned for next week’s final update, where we’ll discuss harvest preparations and the culmination of our cannabis cultivation journey. Feel free to ask any questions or share your experiences in the comments below!

F-MILF takes 70 % of my tent now...wtf Hope all this green gives some good buds at the end. Deficiency from last week is under control...added some Silicate from TA...no idea if that helped or anything else...of course...there is too much light photons for the above area...but wtf I cannot do the plant smaller...lamp is on 75% now und lower would be bad for lower buds. NL untopped (F-MILF) getting this week: (TA nutrients mentioned above are for NL topped from other tent...pictures follow) Aptus Topbooster 6 drops/l (increased) Aptus P-boost 12 drops/l (increased) Aptus regulator 3 drops/l Aptus All in one 0.6 ml/l Aptus CaMg 0.6 ml/l TA Silicate 0.4g/l 4-6 litre each day nutrified (thats a real problem) F-MILF cannot get enough...just makes me poor that fat big milf

The plants were so crowded I decided to put them into a Larger tent to allow some light to the lower bud sites and to help lower the humidity amongst the plants. I'm sure they will love the extra space. The light has now been raised 20cm (20cm taller tent) Allowing me to turn out right up which is 45000 lux in the centre right below it. I will up the bloom to 2ml/l this coming week.

COMMENTED BY MadeInGermany MadeInGermany 8 minutes ago Flowering day 12 since time change to 12/12 h. Hey everyone ☺️. Once again a wonderful week goes by 😀. It has developed so far and is now slowly starting to develop its flowers :-). As soon as the first forms of buds can be seen (I think in 5-10 days) 2 g GHSC Powder Feeding Bio Bloom per liter of substrate are added. In the third week, 1 g per liter of substrate is added so that it lasts through to the end :-). This week it was poured 3 times with 1 liter each 👍. The entire tent was also cleaned and the electronics checked for functionality. The humidifier was refilled every day and fresh osmosis water was drained into the tank for the coming week ☺️. The plants have all been checked for health and pests 👍. Next week the bamboo sticks are inserted towards the end for support and the lowest shoots are removed so that at the end the energy is not wasted in the lower area 👍. Otherwise there is nothing more to report this week :-). I wish you a lot of fun with the update 😎. Stay healthy and let it grow 🍀. You can buy This Strain at : www.Zamnesia.com ☝️🏼☝️🏼☝️🏼☝️🏼☝️🏼☝️🏼 Strain Gelato clone from mother (Zamnesia ) ☝️ Genetics: Wedding Cake x Gelato x Gelato 33 Vega lamp: 2 x Todogrow Led Quantum Board 100 W 💡 Bloom Lamp : 2 x Todogrow Led Cxb 3590 COB 3500 K 205W 💡💡☝️🏼 Soil : Canna Coco Professional + ☝️🏼 Fertilizer: Green House Powder Feeding ☝️🏼🌱 Water: Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC.

1st week out of the veg tent, post 1st defoliation. I like to do all my major training in Veg to prevent further stress in flower. I cut all lower fan leaves off and any unnecessary bud sights (ones that I know will not get any light) - Keep in mind these bitches STRETCH & grow massive fan leaves which block out almost all the light to lower sections of the plant. So you will have to remove leaves, how many is up to your preferred method.

Started off week 2 of flowering on 11/19. All of the ladies look good with the Tangerine Dream being the only set of clones to start showing bud sights and not just pre-flowering. Did a significant amount of clipping and clipped most of the fan leaves on the main colas of my ladies and side branches too. I also began playing classical music for them! True to it’s genetics my Tangerine Dreams are putting off numerous side branches with side branches coming off those branches! Since flowering my Cotton Candy has grown the most. Before flowering it was just barely half the height of my TDs and now they’re taller! As for the Chronic Thunder it’s always been the tallest but in flowering it’s focus has all been on the side branches without me even topping it.

July 5th. 21 days post flip Clone#1: Got chopped a few weeks back had balls. Clone#2 Really liking this one going into flower. Buds seem to be the closest in structure so hoping to get some semi dense bugs from this one. Will see how it develops! Clone#3 Started off real small and absolutely exploded in stretch. Bud structure is interesting so far not sure how it’ll end up we will see! Clone#4 This thing has been and continues to be an absolute monster. Least dense bud structure of all three though. This one might be a sativa sativa. Mothers/father All are growing well. Going to get topped tmmr on the 6th to stunt them again to slow them down while the clones finish. All 4 clones At one point two of them were touching the light and almost all the tops were within an inch or two of the light. After this they were growing well above the lights. This caused bleaching on the ones within inches and burnt the two that touched the light. I’ve since super cropped them violently to force them back under the light. At this point all the tops are about 6 inches from the light but they seem happy. I still have one top a couple inches away that I’m using as a test to see how much light these things can handle. So far they are monsters with handling the lights. You can see the tops within 6 inches are no longer pointing leaves upwards. The one within an inch is pointing upwards to decrease its surface area. Nothing but water so far and will continue to be nothing but water they don’t seem hungry yet. Will give build a flower in a week or two. You’ll notice I didn’t provide the heights this week for the plants. At this point it’s just because how difficult they are to measure. Praying they stop getting taller within the next few days. Very little smell so far, I expect to start getting something here in the coming weeks. Gob bless and happy growing guys!

Day 49-56 (Day 50) I hooked up my carbon filter to the humidity controller and it is keeping the room exactly at 65-70% RH night and day. It looks like it turns on about every 45 minutes for about 5 minutes so it allows me to run the co2 bag properly. I don’t even have to use my dehumidifier. The room is 100% dark now too. Even the small red lights on the space heaters. Not going to feed anything other than foliars this week. (Day 51) Blackberry #4 & #8 #9 and white widows #2 & #3 are all confirmed males. Chopped them down and recycled the soil. White widow #1 is the first official female and I’m starting to see pistils on the m39/zkittlez too. Plants seem to be responding to the light fairly well. It’s hung 32 inches above the canopy which is as high as it can go without strapping it to the roof, which may have to happen one day. The plant can get within 6 inches of the light so I’m probably good. The ppfd output is 1800umols which is super high so I want to hang them as high as possible in veg. I wish I could rent a ppfd meter to see if I’m in range at 32”. (Day 52) Blackberry breath #3 is the first official bbb female to show. I decided to scrap BCTG #2. It sounded like a good strain but after looking at pictures of people who have grown it online, it doesn’t look up to my standards. I found a very small patch of powdery mildew on one of the leaves so I’m not even going to start with that shit again. I’m really thinking about scrapping the m39/zkittlez and the white widow too. I’m praying that I get at least 4 females of BBB. I tried super cropping for the first time today. A few of the branches I definitely squished a bit too much as they turned quite brown and looked dead within a day. (Day 53) Despite the m39/zkittlez vigorous growth, I know it will be a shitty strain that will most likely herm as it’s from a bag seed of low grade weed. I’ve decided instead of scrapping it, I will use it for experimenting with a new chemical powdery mildew preventative. If it dies oh well. I doused it and chopped a limb off a few hours ago during lights on and it seems fine. (Day 54) I’m about 90% sure BBB 6&7 are both female. #2 & #5 are looking like males but too early too tell. #1 is really tough to say. Just gotta be patient I guess. #3 has a great spread out structure, I hope it doesn’t stretch too much. The scrogging is a priority. I put up the scrog net just to see how it fits. It’s a little small around the edges but that’s fine. So it’s looking like out the 9, I would be lucky to get 4 fems if #1 & 7 would show forsure already. If #1 is a female I have my 4 and I can throw out the white widow. The white widow is just insurance at this point. Super cropped plants have recovered nicely. Going to continue doing this more. I’ve noticed that the plants that were put into my custom soil mix have very small fan leaves compared to the fabric pots of straight promix and dry amendments. Could also be the fabric pot is helping dry downs too. (Day 56) I’m seeing some yellowing so I’m going to give a foliar spray just too keep some deficiencies at bay. All of the plants are stunted except the m39 and bbb#3. Node spacing has also reduced significantly. I can’t help but feel it’s from the intensity of my lights but maybe they just need a transplant into some new soil something. Luckily the stunt and droop is only really happening to what I suspect are male plants anyway. Leaves are looking twisted and gnarled on #5. Going to move it into the veg tent for a while. I’m going to mix up and amend my Destiny/coco blend today and transplant bbb#3 and 6 & 7 in a few days. I mixed them up in contractor bags making sure to toss and turn vigorously. Here is my blend: 2 bags 40L Destiny soil 2 bags 40L coco 700ml glacial rock dust 700ml oyster shell flour 700ml nature’s pride bloom 300ml basalt rock dust 150ml langbeinite 150ml nature’s pride veg I am also going to try the Destiny top dress as it’s only 13 bucks a bag and full of good shit. I’m trying to not feed heavy in flower other than 2 or 3 top dresses and 2 teas and nothing after week 5. Because it’s taken so long for the plants to show sex, when I transplant into the 10 gallon pots, they should have more than enough nutrients too keep them going strong all the way through flower with just water. I’m a little skeptical about that though. Besides teas and dressings are fun. Everything should be broken down by week 8 or so. Will transplant in a few days.

Day 39 Light Cycle 18/06 Air Humidity 52~57% Temp 20~26ºC The plants are stretching up very fast and getting bushier. I moved the light cycle back to 18/06 and dimmed the TS 100 to 100%. The plant nº 3 is drinking more water so it was watered with 1 litter today. Day 41 Light Cycle 18/06 Air Humidity 65 ~70% Temp 20~28ºC Yesterday, the plants were top dressed with 10g of EcoThrive Charge mix with soil and watered with 200ml plain water. and today I gave the regular dose of nutrients (1L on each) The plants were defoliated, and I try to spread the maximum I could on the scrog. Overall, they are looking very healthy and vigorous. All the secondary branches are stretching up rapidly. I can wait to see the results

Este exprimento 4 en 1 me encanta. No puedo creer el tamaño de esta planta con solo 2 semanas de vegeta. Lo seguiré haciendo sin duda. Caminan sanas y a buena velocidad. Durante la semana les puse una cama extra se sustrato, pues al inicio tenía baja espectativa con ellas y hasta con la cantidad de sustrato fui egoísta. Buenos humos a todos
