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!

I added a humidifier this week to the tent to stabilize humidity.This addition is working great at the moment. The plants showed signs of decent growth in there new home early in the week so I decided to top them. After a couple of days from there topping they are starting to take off with growth.I hope I can cut some clones in a couple weeks and than we will head into flower.Growth is in full effect as you can see by the video. Lowering my PH to 5.5 seems to have quelled the cal-mag deficiency I had in the cups.The bounce back from transplant shock was great this week. I was able to top them on schedule and all are reacting well.

The CMH grow light has been set to 300w power and hung 120cm above the seedlings. The room is humidified to keep the humidity over 50%. A small fan is mixing the air to avoid any hot pockets from developing, plus the air movement is keeping the rockwool cool through evaporation. The extractor fan is running to get rid of excess hot air in the tent. Babies are growing fast. 😄

Día 75 y último de vida para esta hermosa nena. Me encuentro disfrutando de la manicura y hermosa cosecha que estoy obteniendo con esta planta, mi casa está impregnada por una fragancia dulce con toques tangie. Ahora cortaré por ramas y colgaré en la carpa de cultivo donde se secará por aproximadamente 10 días con humedad y temperatura controlada. Esperaré a curar y probar bien todos esos terps para poder dar un buen informe de cosecha pero hasta ahora todo se ve muy bien! Buenos Humos 👽

I changed my tent this week, the lamp and the Mars Hydro extractor convinced me that it was good gear so I took the tent in + 😀 Pulling all the branches with ropes is way too much work... I think I'll just pull the 2 main branches down and add a scrog net next week ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- -Water: tap water (280ppm). I add 0.7g/L of Grow mineral powder and 0.2g/L of Calcium to reach 820ppm and I adjust the ph to 5.8 -Daytime temperature: 29°C -Night temperature: 25°C -Humidity: 45-65% -Lamp: Mars Hydro FC3000. intensity 60% at 40cm from the top leaves -Room: Mars Hydro 100x100x180cm -Extractor: Mars hydro 402 CFM Max. power 2/10 -Substrate : 70% coco, 25% perlite, 5% vermiculite.

So this or these ladies are performing splendid..I like the fact that each plant has its own personality..One is nice and tall, the other short and stocky ...I mean it's a joy watching each of them move through a different stage but collectively...it's insane... But thanks for visiting...stay tuned for more weekly updates on this ladies...

Welp, These took a Bit longer than my Cream Cookies and still didn't fill out quite like I thought they would.. But they are still a very beautiful strain and a joy to have grown. They smell stronger and way more lovely than the cream cookies thou just a beautiful aroma I'd really like to grow these again Indoors where I can control them easier. (Sadly they dried into wispy nothings and we turned them all into bubble hash) #3 took the hit of some aphids and ended up in a frozen hash pile in our fridge along with two cream cookies from the run. It's frozen weight combined was 203g. *will update with dry*

Hey what’s up fellas ✌️ Week 2 of flowering, I have trim the legs by cutting all the small shoots in the bottom that won’t reach the canopy. And removing some few big fans leaves that are covering some lower shoots. I gave them a lil bit of nutrients during this week, last time was about 13 days ago. Just to support the stretch. Keeping an eye on the plants is the best way to know when to feed them. Lights are at max level now, all the ladies should have plenty enough space to grow without reaching the cooking zone. The Mars-Hydro led is just a bit lower and closer as it produces less heat. ✅New Growers Tips✅ ✅Trim your plants legs, don’t waste energy on the bottom popcorn buds. ✅Your plants are stretching, they need Nitrogen, stick to your Grow/Veg. nutrients ✅Always pop more seeds than expected to grow, look at the shitty plants in the middle between the 2 scrog in the video, those plants were germinated same day than the ones in the scrog... Keep the best phenotypes and put the shitty ones at the trash. That’s all for this week 😉 Stay tuned for the Jungle Show 😂👍 (I’m looking for a job in the Cannabis industry as Master Grower, Mineralogist, Quality Control)

Von links nach rechts: Sleepy Joe, Lava Cake, Runtz. 02. Mai 2025 Die Wurzeln sind jetzt sehr gut entwickelt. Seit dem Einschalten des Lüfters haben die drei gut 20l Wasser verbraucht. 😅 Sie wachsen so unglaublich schnell, dass sie in drei Tagen fast die LED berührt haben. Dadurch leichte Verbrennungen an den Spitzen der Lava Cake. Viel höher darf die Runtz nicht werden, sonst muss ich die Spitze nach unten binden. Das Zelt ist nur 180 cm hoch. Der Lüfter des Filters läuft jetzt schneller mit 50% Leistung. Die Luftfeuchtigkeit lag heute bei 75% und musste aus dem Zelt. Das führt aber auch dazu, dass die Wärme abgesaugt wird. Wird Zeit, dass es draußen konstant wärmer wird. 03. Mai 2025 Die Lüftung habe ich über den Trenntrafo wieder eine Stufe langsamer gestellt. Aber auch vorher lag die Temperatur nachts bei 22°C, also alles im grünen Bereich. Licht: Eine der zwei Sanlight S4W strahlt exclusiv seitlich auf die Runtz. Normalerweise würde ich das nicht so machen, aber die Runtz wächst sehr luftig und hat sehr großen Abstand zwischen den Blättern. Sie sieht gesund aus und wächst gleichmäßig. Die Rückseite der Pflanze zeigt keinen Lichtmangel durch unsymetrisches Wachstum. Eine Beleuchtung von oben wäre aktuell schlechter. Ich muss schon sagen, die Runtz überrascht mich immer wieder und ich mag das zwar hohe aber sehr luftige Wachstum! Die Sleepy Joe und die Lava Cake sind vergleichbar hoch und teilen sich die zweite Sanlight S4W. Auch ihnen geht es gut, etwas größer wachsende Pflanzen sind mir aber lieber. Wasserbrauch: Bisher 30l. Heute den kleinen Tank mit 20l Wasser inkl. 64 ml Canna Aqua Flores aufgefüllt. 34 ml pro 10l bei hartem Wasser gemäß Rechner von Canna. Beim letzten Grow habe ich noch pH-down verwendet, das ist laut Canna nicht nötig und funktioniert aktuell perfekt! Canna: "Es sind pH-Stabilisatoren enthalten die ein Einstellen des pH-Werts unnötig machen." Quelle: https://www.canna-de.com/canna-aqua-flores Die Pflanzen wachsen wie beim letzten Grow kräftig und gesund, ohne Anzeichen von Mangelerscheinungen. Und sie sind nicht übertrieben dunkelgrün durch zu viel Stickstoff. 😱

Hello fellow growers week 4 is upon us for the cookies gelato by RQS Day 22 Veg Phase I think i have bin trying to mutch technieks at same time idk it's my first grow . So the first topping i did didn't work there is still something sprouting out so i think that was fail on the cookies gelato #2 so i just Going to try to LST the main . Cookies Gelato #1 was topped yesterday and i think that work better 🤔 but i did say that with First topping 🤣🤣🤣. In the process i did twist some main leaves on both plants i hope that didn't do to mutch damage to the process . Like was saying before i am still new to and very eager to learn . But to mutch at same time cannot be good either Will see true the day's thanks for stopping by and have a look good luck growing everybody 💪💪 Day 23 Veg Phase So today i find out that i wasn't doing topping but FIMing . And yeah it looks like it . She didn't stop growing but made more sprouts 😎😎😎. Came home today and all looking good 👍👍 Day 24 Veg Phase Broke one of my big leaves 😢 with doing the LST clips . It was def my own fault but you learn from your mistakes 🤘 Day 25 Veg Phase They are looking good i see some yellow spots on some point of leaves but i think they had to much nutrients so i have bin giving just regular water in between watering . I have 4 plants growing and it looks like there all half week apart from each other . It's not very consistent but it def helps me see if something happens with First plant i can do something before it will happen to the other ones . Day 26 Veg Phase I have def bin giving them to much nut i saw white salt build up on my fabric pots . So today i have flush them with pH 6 water until all the soil was moist and would drain out . Now i am going to be not giving them anything until next week of growing phase 2days from now . And then start keeping up EC levels etc . Day 27 Veg Phase No watering just some LST with the clips on plant is def topped the other wel look your self it's a monster lol Day 28 Veg Phase Week 4 of Veg is over doing good no watering today . Tomorrow will be giving nutrition to water again 🤘🤘

02/05 - 02/17 Week went very well for this girl. Stopped grow nutes, increased bloom nutes and added unsulferd molasses and she loves it... Started getting frosty the next day. I S&M'd (tied down and exposed all bud sites) her some more and they've now almost double in size as they all thicken.. I also pulled a bit of inward facing bud covering leaves (she's already flowering and kept in minimal). 😁 I'm Very Happy with this groW so fast and the Lady Seems to Feel the same... Let's groW!!! SORRY LOTS OF PICS!!!

No defoliation this week. 🤙 Vertical growth has topped out on both plants. The GP#2 started her fade this week, she’s extremely sticky and the smell is strong. I expect GP#2 to be harvested first. I see this often, even when the plants are the same age whoever is the least touched finishes first. Til next week!

Poor Skunk Apple really is the runt of the litter. I think we can blame my rookie mistake of giving it a gallon of water that was way too strong. It's been struggling to recover ever since. Hopefully this little guy will catch up eventually, but I'm not gonna hold my breath. Well, another year has come and gone. Yesterday was New Year's Eve, and I want to wish all of you a happy and healthy 2025. May this year bring you all the things you've been wishing for. Let's make this the best year yet! I can't believe how much my plants have grown during this stretch! It's like they've been on some serious plant steroids. They've all at least doubled in size, some of them even more. I have a hard time with overwatering, especially now that it's harder to let them dry out. I just don't know if I'm damaging the roots with all this growth.
