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!

End of week 7 for DL1/2 and E4. Start of flowering for E/1/2/3! I flipped those girls 3 days ago. Will be transplanting DL1/2 and E4 today after I post this update, so next week's update will have the start of flower for those girls as well! DL1 especially is showing her hunger, so it's definitely time to transplant! We pushed it out a few days longer than I'd have liked, but it's ok. We're looking good overall. The Eucalypti (1/2/3 especially) are looking insanely healthy. They seem to have taken to their new soil well and are loving the silicore supplement from Solfire that I've worked into the waterings. Can't wait until I can buy more of this silicore stuff. The sample won't last me long lol. In about 10 days, I'll do a heavy defoliation on E/1/2/3 and check for herms/sacs; then another, lighter defoliation 2 weeks later around week 4 of flower. Smooth sailing after that. Haven't seen any signs of sacs in the preflowers, but we'll see what we get in a couple weeks. I'm not even close to the best grower in the world, but I definitely feel like I've found a great recipe for success. This might've been the least amount of LST I've ever done on plants to get ~10-12 tops per plant, which is usually my goal. I would love to find a keeper pheno in a grow sometime and keep one giant mother plant, or even just train one plant in my 3x3 and fill the whole thing out. But for now, I'll keep going with three in the 3x3 lol. Should be another great harvest when all is said and done; fingers crossed no major issues. Humidity and temp will be my biggest challenges this summer. I likely will have to contend with 60+% humidity in flower. It's gonna suck. But we're going to persevere...somehow.

89 Tage wurde sie alt Die Mexican Airlines hat meine Erwartungen mit einer riesiegen, über 30 cm langen Cola absolut übertroffen. Durch das LST sind auch die Seitentriebe schön prall und buschig geworden und tragen ordentlich Gewicht. Für so n kleines Ding, nicht schlecht.

25 september This girl is outstanding. Amagine lifting or weighing that plant. Sorry for the report, but fresh weight total is not possible for me. After harvesting Maroc I wanted to hold the stem/skeleton up for a photo. I Could hardly lift it for a picture. Must have been 20 Kg. Just stem with rootball. Fresh buds where just harvested but in stages. This plants is now reaching almost 4 meters tall and is about 3 meters wide. Buds are very compact and spread nicely over branches. The small sprouts and buds within were taken out on 21st. You can tell the plants suffer from the cold. Daytemp around 10-15 degrees slows them down, almost to a halt. So lets pray for some more sunshine! 25th she was looking so much better after 3 days sun. I think she needs another 3-4 weeks if mould or frost doesnt spoil things. Those sunny days and 20+ celsius. that really made Grapefruit and Lemon Kush pop before they got cut. 3 day impact was amazing after 10 days seeing nothing but rot grow during nonstop rain. Keep growing everybody! Best wishes to all this season

Giorno 42. Peccato per una watermelon zkittlez che non sta bene. Lavo terreno e ricomincio da metà dose levando le foglie malate

A mitad de camino, sigo notando un leve exceso de Nitrógeno por lo que bajo la dosis a 0,5 ML por Litro de BASE GROW como muestra la tabla de Fertilización. Ambas plantas son muy vigorosas y formaron una linda estructura ramificada, espero sean buenas productoras. Seria ideal conseguir 100 gramos secos entre las 2, en alrededor de 12 a 13 semanas. Yo siempre riego solo con agua las ultimas 2 semanas, pero en este caso la que esté lista primera para cosechar aplicare algún producto de lavado de raíces.

8/14 Everything looked beautiful this morning. Seems like I've got the watering schedule down better. I do have one gmo that looks hungry so I need to increase nutes. At least on that plant. Toasted toffy has little spits that could be water marks, pests or septoria. I don't think it's septoria. In the pastvi lost far more leaves when I had septoria. I've been crazy busy. I'm surprised things are going this well. I need to put up the final supports so I can add to them once I've got big heavy buds. I was really stoked to see everything doing so well. The plant in the 50gallon is the furthest in flower. I'm so grateful to have the ability to grow high quality cannabis for myself amd my wife. There's nothing quite like it. That hash I made turned out great. I think I'll press it today. Supports will be done this week. Saw a few aphids on the plant I cut down. Earwigs aren't here this summer or there would be NO aphids. Plus when I cleaned out the insides this morning I found some dead leaves WAY in the middle by the stalk. They would've eaten that shit if they were here. Birds and other predators seem to be keeping pillars at bay. I'm not seeing the damage and when I do sfind one it's absolutely tiny like a newborn. I'll think about whether I need to spray BT. 8/15 That fucking cancel button always fucks everything out. I was done no I need to start over. Didn't water last night. Found pm on my gmo in the 30. Interior of the plant. Should've defoliated better and earlier. Oh well. I'll treat with k bicarb or plant doctor. I'll have to think about it. Other plants are looking good. Well they all are. I just hate pm. I can't isolate it due to local laws so it is what it is. Nothing I haven't dealt with before. Watered today. The middle gmo in the 30 got 1.5 gallons. The other plants each got a gallon. Including the one in the 10gal and 50 gal. Its supposed to rain but only like .1. I also chose to feed today. All plants got a gallon. I DID NOT WATER THE EVENT HORIZON IN THE MIDDLE AND THE SHERB PIE AS THEY WERE PRAYING AND HEAVY. I need to get these supports up. I'll update as I go. Oh and one thing I remembered is that, I didn't properly sanitize the trellis nets I installed on the plant that has pm (non visible today but still). I harvested the plant that used that bet last year was harvested in two stages. The bottom I let go way later and ended up with a little pm on the stuff I left for hash material and it got some pm. I wonder if that's whete this came from. 8/16 Death in the family this morning. I couldn't decide if I should use organocide plant doctor or not. It's a systemic It's been discontinued and reformulated. It's a systemic fungicide. Instead I mixed two tsp potassium bicarbonate with a little dawn in a half gallon mister. I used gloves and defoliated everything that had pm on it. I checked the plants next to it and luckily it hasn't spread yet....but it will. I feel safer using the k bicarb. I'll do more research and try to find the best way to tackle this. I don't want to get rid of the plant and due to local ordinance I can't isolate it. If I can keep it to this one plantvthat would be fine. I'd just use it for extracts. So glad I didn't use all that netting and put up tjosr supports. I'll need to disinfect them if I decide to use them. We'll see. Plants are coming right along flowering. WENT BACK OVER AND DEFOLIATED A BUNCH OF fan leaves and interior stuff to promote airflow. Still saw pm on that plant u had treated earlier with k bicarb. I can't isolate due to laws and I'm not willing to discard this massive monster cropped plant. So I'm going to treat it. I started by removing everything infected and improving airflow on that plant and all the others. I didn't make it to one event horizon. I plan to treat the infected plant with Organocide Plant Doctor since its what I have on hand and I've had good luck. It's a systemic. After I treat the one plant and see that it didn't hurt the plant I'll use a preventative dosage on the other plants. I've battled wpm several times. This is something I'm very familiar with. What sucks is it's totally my fault it happened due to grower error. This has set back me puttingvup my supports as well. Plants look good woth a haircut. Also the toasted toffy had some leaves removed with spots that looked like septoria. I think nutes havecreally kicked things in gear. Now there are little buds on plants. 8/17 BAGS still seemed heavy so I didn't water. It's been MUCH cooler. It's 63 at 9am. It would normally be 80 by now so maybe they aren't using as much water. I watered the the toasted toffy I missed last round but the Sherb Pie still had weight to it. I also watered the GMO on the far side and the one in the 30 as the seemed a little lighter. I looked in and I couldn't find a SPOT of powder mildew on the plant! I know it will come back but on this 100% rh day there isn't a spot I can find! I'm going to go check on them later today. Do some more defoliation and treat the plants with Plant Doctor to try to mitigate the spread of the P.M. Very suprised the k bicarb worked like that. WENT BACK OVER AROUND 11. I WATERED THE TWO THAT DIDNT GET WATERED LAST TIME. THE EVENT HORIZON AND THE SHERB PIE. IT WAS COLD AND OVERCAST. TEMPS HAVE BEEN MUCH COOLER. SOON AS I WATERED THE SUN CAME OHT AND THE TEMP WENT UP. I WENT THROUGH THE PLANTS I MISSED AND SEFOLIATED LEAVES AND INTERIOR BRANCHES TO INCREASE AIRFLOW. SURPRISED TO STILL SEE NO PM WITH 100% HUMIDITY. I WENT THROUGH EVERY PLANT. ILL NEED TO GO TJROUGH AGAIN BUT TJIS IS MUCH BETTER. THE TOASTED TOFFY THAT MAY HAVE SEPTORIA I WILL TREAT TONOGHT WITH PLANT DOCTOR. I REMOVED ANYTHING LOOKING INFECTED. I LSTed THE BIGGEST BRANCHES WITH CLIPS TO THE BAG AMD TWINE. SO AIRFLOW IS MUCH BETTER. I THEN REMOVED A BU CH OF THE MIDDLE. I COULD TAKE MORE BUT ON OUTDOOR HARVESTS THAT LITTLE STUFF GOES IN EXTRACTS. I PUT A FEW HOURS IN TODAY. IM GOING BACK AND ILL TEST THE PLANT DOCTOR ON THE TOASTED TOFFY. BUT IF THE K BICARB WORKS THIS GOOD ILL JUST KEEP USING THAT. 8/18 It started sprinkling when I left this morning. I did more defoliation on a few different plants. Including the healthiest GMO. It seems like things should be further in flower but it is what it is. I'm not doing clones again. Only reason I did is because I lost my 72 seedlings and depleted my seed supply. I hate treating pm. Lost Coast Plant Therapy I'd really whete its at when it comes to treating pm. I might just order that. My commercial buddy told me that he wouldn't use the plant doctor and not to "spray shot all over my plants". He's probably right. I see something small and try to overcurrent. I dont see any more septoria looking leaves on the toasted toffy since I lsted it and removed damaged leaves. I was going to use the fungicide plant doctor on that and then use it ad a preventative. He's probably right. I've put a lot of work in defoliation and such. It WILL spread but it hasn't yet. I removed what I saw. I was going to hit it again with k bicarb but it said it should be weekly treatments.i hope I'm doing things right. I shouldn't be this worried about pm but I've got am anxiety disorder. I'll fully sterilize (AGAIN) my posts and trellis netting before I instal it. I'll probably go check on them later. It's hard to avoid pm with 100% humidity and 30° temp swings. I've got a few lights so maybe this winter I'll do indoor. I'll try to keep this updated. LOOKING BACK AT PRIOR DIARIES I GUESS IM RIGHT WHERE I SHOULD BE FLOWERING WISE. I JUST HAD A COUPLE REALLY EARLY PHENOS A COUPLE TIMES. 8/19 Defoliated some more stuff amd tried to improve airflow. Humidity is high and it was sprinkling earlier. I think we'll have showers. Not seeing much pm. MAYBE a little in the middle of that middle gmo but it could just be residue. I'll treat it again with potassium bicarbonate soon. If that doesn't work I'll switch up treatments. I've got citric acid amd some other stuff too. I almost ordered lost coast last night but decided I'd wait to try it out. The toasted toffy has SOME spots that look like septoria. It's the second furthest in flower and very indica leaning. It seems to be flowering vigorously so I don't want to fuck with it too much. I could use plant doctor on it and see what happens but I'm going to monitor for a few days after defoliating. WENT BACK OVER AROUND 4 AND SHOOK OFFCTHE PLANTS. HADNT RAINED MUCH. BAGS ARE STILL HEAVY. THE TEN WAS LIGHT AND THE EVENT HORIZON BESIDE IT SEEMED A LITTLE LGHT AS WELL. I THINK IT MIGHT BE ME COMPARING THEM TO OTHER PLANTS THAT ARE SATURATED. SEEING HOW THEY BOTH LOOKED THE BEST IVE EVER SEEN THEM I HELD OFF WATERING. ITS ALSO SPRINKL9NG AMD GOING TO RAIN TONIGHT. ILL REASSESS IN THE MORNING. PLANNED ON USING PLANT DOCTOR ON TOASTED TOFFY BUT DECIDED AGAINST IT PARTIALLY DUE TO THE RAIN. PARTIALLY BECAUSE I PUSSED OUT. I WANTED TO FEED. IVE NOTICED SOME FADE AND PLANTS PUSHING AND TRYING TO GET OVER THE FENXE INTO FLOWER. THE TOASTED TOFFY AND THE UNKNOWN IN THE 50 ATE THE FURTHEST ALONG AND DEVELOPING ROCK HARD BUDS. GMO HAS A MASSIVE STRETCH. THINGS CHANGE DAILY. I WANTED TO GET A GOOD DOSE OF NUTES IN SO AFTER THIS LITTLE BIT OF RAIN WHEN WE GET THAT NICE SUNSHINE MY PLANTS WILL TAKE OFF!! THEY'VE BEEN PROGRESSING FAST DESPITE THE SHITTY WEATHER. 8/20 It's still sprinkling. It SAYS WE got zero rain yesterday but that's just not true. Today is supposed to be light showers with like .02 in 9f rain. I mixed up some water to check the plants. I figured a few would he light. The event horizon on the back SEEMED a little light. So did the one invthe ten. I realized it was just comparing it to the bags that were saturated. Still I ended up giving the event horizon in the back a half gallon and split the other half with the one in the 10 that dries out super fast. It's crazy. The weather just abruptly changed one day and I go from watering twice a day to hardly at all! Everything but the sherb pie and the seedling in the 10gal are vigorously flowering. Upping the nutes was a smart move. The seemed to like it. I'm gonna check later and as soon as I can I'll hit that toasted toffy with plant doctor. That's tied for furthest along in flower. I've done a bunch of research and I think this is the right move. I'll keep this updated. After this small patch of shitty weather we are goingvto get some sun amd these girls will EXPLODE! WENT BACK OVER A FEW TIMES. LAST AT SIX. I DID SOME DEFOLIATION AND PRUNING OF PLANT INTERIORS. ITS ABOUT TIME TO TREAT THE TOASTED TOFFY AGAIN WITH PLANT DOCTOR. I CAN SEE SOME SEPTORIA SPOTS. I TREATED THE EVENT HORIZON THIS MORNING. IT GOT A FEW HOURS BEFORE A LITTPE RAIN WND THEN SUNNY AND 80. I USED BETWEEN A QUARTER AND HALF GALLON ON THE INE PLANT. I MAY NOT HAVE USED ENOUGH OF THE MIXED UP SOLUTION ONVTHE TOASTED TOFFY. IT HAD BEEN WORKING AWESOME AND NOW THAT ITS TIME TO REAPPLY I NOTICE A FEW LEAVES THAT LOOK INFECTED. OVER THE NEXT WEEK ILL BE MONITORING THE RESPONS FROM THE PLANT DOCTOR. I'M CONSIDERING APPLYING PLANT DOCTOR TO THE REST OF THE GARDEN. I THIBJ THE K BICARB HAS BEEN DOING GOOD KEEPING THE PM DOWN ON THE MIDDLE GMO. I HATE THAT I HAVE TO FIGHT DISEASES. IM NOT DOING CLONES AGAIN. AND IM GOING TO BE MUCH CLEANER. THE SHERB PIE LOOKS A LITTLE OVERWATERED AND HAS SOME YELLOW LEAVES BUT MANY HAVE TURNED PURPLE AND OTHER FALL COLORS. THE PLANTS ARE AGGRESSIVELY FLOWERING AND TEMPS ARE CHANGING. STILL IN EARLY FLOWER. IVE GOT A GOOD FEELING. IVE DEALT WITH MUCH WORSE AND CAME OUT GOOD.

Day 36: I bend the branches even more, cut off the top leaf that covered 2 buds, one of them is very small, I hope to give it at least a little chance to grow. This is a victim of a broken branch.

On day 29 I’ve increased the amount of Connoisseur Grow A+B given, from 0.5ml/L to 2ml/L, and the same with B-52, in 1L of water. No more Voodoo Juice as well. On day 29 I’ve also done some more LST on the same branches. I’m happy about the results. She’s gonna be a beast, although the pot capacity is just 5L. On day 31 I’ve increased nutrients from 2ml/L to 4ml/L (Connoisseur Grow A+B), B-52 not touched (again 2ml/L), and put them in 1.5L of water. On day 32 I did the third session of LST on various branches.

Se realizó una defoliación en la parte más baja y en las 2 hojas más grandes de la parte superior para que pudiera entrar de mejor manera la luz a los brotes más pequeños. Se aplicó Voodo Juice para las raíces y Top Bloom para la floración, ya todas tomaron de buena manera el cambio del fotoperiodo. Seguimos 👽 ...

All of the branches have been tied down for LST she is reacting super well so far. The smell on it is definitely becoming apparent. Love how they are reacting ti the nutrients from green leaf as well very responsive. Everytime i prune leaves of more just grow immediately pretty amazing. Cant wait to smoke this plant :)

High, finally, after 65 days of flowering, they were ready to get their final cut. I flushed 16 days. Harvest took about 7 hours with 2 scissors. 😊 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r03V9OEJlgg It were 630g of dry buds. More small fluffy buds than the last grow because I didn't LST. Next time I'll do LST again. I passed the 1g/W mark, so yeah, I'm happy. :) See you soon with my next grow...
