White Widow looks realy good. I expect that I can harvest her in august. Northern Lights looks good too, but seems to be flowering much slower then White Widow. Blueberry Ghost OG (it is HUGE already) and Kali AK still won't start flowering and I don't know why.

Strain: Fast Buds – FBA2504 Grow Type: Indoor Pot Size: 5 Gallon Medium: Coco and Perlite Nutrient Line: Athena Week 11 – Chop Day! She finally came down! FBA2504 was honestly a pleasure to grow super vibrant buds with a loud, sweet aroma that hit me every time I opened the tent. Watching her colors develop over the last few weeks made it even more exciting. Her structure held up beautifully too, no flopping or support needed. She’s now hanging and drying, and I’m really looking forward to the cure. Can’t wait to try her out! Catch you after the dry update and don’t forget to use my code ISLANDT for 15% off your next Fast Buds order!

Hi guys! I have grown strains from Zamnesia quite a lot time, but this one was the highest yielder from them. literally I have no words for this yield. The tent was 1 square meter and she was alone. Did not smoke a lot from them becouse I want to give a long cure, but what I have tried was amazing. I did the harvest in 2 parts. During the grow I had Mold attack becouse of the size of the buds and the humidity of the grow room. And the loss was almost 50g :(( First: 370g Second: 100g

Estoy muy satisfecho de mi primer cultivo Indoor. El resultado a superado con creces mis mejores expectativas. Ciertamente disponía de unas condiciones mas que buenas para llevarlo a buen término. Una habitación de 6 metros cuadrados que con un radiador, un deshumificador, un ventilador y por supuesto un termohidrómetro wifi que en todo momento me indicaba temperatura y humedad.

Smell is amazing like fizzy pineapples it overpowers the cookie dawg smell but the combo of the strains is also amazing the slight cookie and chem smell inside the tent. Will re pot these all and hope they all females due to the seeds being regular and not feminised. All looks good will keep eye on pistils to appear or not. I am always using the same feed: Coco A Coco B Canna Rhizotonic Cannazym Canna cal mag Canna boost Ph up

Greetings, fellow cultivators and guardians of the green realm! It's time to unravel the verdant tapestry in this Week 2 Flower Report for our reigning queen, Jealousy, in the Power Buds competition. The air in the grow room is humming with the promise of flourishing buds, and the journey through the flowering phase has been nothing short of sublime. As Week 2 of flowering unfolded, I found myself marveling at the sheer perfection of Jealousy's progress. She's become the embodiment of botanical grace, with buds forming and branches reaching for the heavens. It's like witnessing a botanical ballet where every move is executed with precision and elegance. Now, in the pursuit of perfection, a decision was made to embark on a defoliation expedition. The goal? To channel Jealousy's energy into the areas that truly matter, ensuring that each bud site receives the spotlight it deserves. This meticulous pruning is like sculpting a masterpiece, with each leaf strategically removed to unveil the hidden beauty beneath. And why stop at perfection when we can plan for the future? As an insurance policy for the green kingdom, a few extra cuts were taken. It's like stashing away green treasures, ready to sprout new life if the need arises. These clones are not just cuttings; they are the potential guardians of our botanical legacy. Jealousy, our green empress, took the defoliation with a regal poise. She's a resilient beauty, adapting to the changes with the composure of a true queen. The grow room is now a stage, and Jealousy is the star, radiating with the promise of a bountiful harvest. As we navigate the second week of flowering, let's extend our heartfelt gratitude to Zamnesia and Plagron, the unsung heroes of our green odyssey. Their contributions are the foundation upon which our botanical dreams are built. A standing ovation to the Grow Diaries community – your shared experiences and collective wisdom create a vibrant tapestry of knowledge. To my fellow contestants and growers, may your buds blossom abundantly, and may the fragrance of success linger in the air. Here's to a week of defoliation finesse, green elegance, and the anticipation of a harvest fit for royalty. Stay green, stay inspired, and keep cultivating those dreams! As always, thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all. This journey of mine would just not be the same without you guys. The love and support are very much appreciated, and I feel honored and blessed with you all in my life !!! With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself and always do things expecting nothing in return, with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will respond in ways you can’t even dream of .

Wir schreiben die 9. Woche. Die Blüten sind auf jeden Fall gut gewachsen. Was mich wundert, dass die Pflanze kaum riecht. Ich habe 2 Bluematics, die Eine von denen hat schon in der Vegi Phase leicht gerochen und ihr könnt euch sicher vorstellen wie sie jetzt riecht. Die Bluematic 2 riecht so krass stark, aber ist nicht mal annähernd so weit wie diese Bluematic hier, also von den Blüten her. Vom Geruch her kann ich echt sagen, was mich wirklich beeindruckt hat, dass die 2. von meinen Bluematics leicht etwas beeriges hat, also wenn man an der riecht denkt man schon so an saure frische aus dem Wald gepflückte Blaubeeren. Viel Erfolg an jeden anderen, der das hier liest ✌️

15/16 week grow from start to finish. First grow yielded 7.5 oz in a 4x2. 3 autos in 5 gallon. Making this post 03 AUG 2025 after 2 weeks of drying and couple weeks of curing. This is some of the strongest weed I smoked in long time. Takes me back to the first time smoking weed. Will try again with known fastbud seeds instead of random pack. Should have larger faster yields next run! Thank you! I got geek for days

Thank you. Gave her a cocktail to help with stress. Added 1st net for lateral support, not so much now, but for later. Blue light is absorbed by photoreceptor proteins called phototropins, which trigger a hormonal response that causes cells on the shaded side to elongate, making the plant bend toward the light. Try and fill this side a little. She is quite big already, just needs to find her stride again after the undue torture. 5 apex stems with 20-30 mini cola, let them develop a little, with the apical dominance shattered, all those 20-30 will all compete with each other as soon as that stretch is initiated. Key to a good stretch is making sure the plant is cycling efficiently, with large ATP conversions occurring lights out. For now, I'm keeping light intensity high. A plant will slow its vertical growth in very high light intensities, leading to a more compact form with thicker stems and leaves. This response is a protective mechanism against light stress, which can damage the photosynthetic apparatus and lead to symptoms like leaf scorching, yellowing, and brittleness. Instead of growing taller, the plant invests its energy into creating a more robust, stress-tolerant structure. Providing plants with necessary antioxidants helps protect the photosynthetic apparatus by scavenging reactive oxygen species (ROS) that cause damage from excess light. UV light exposure can impact the xanthophyll cycle by either enhancing its photoprotective role or causing damage, depending on the intensity and type of UV radiation. UV exposure can trigger the synthesis of more xanthophyll cycle pigments to increase the plant's capacity to dissipate excess energy, but it can also cause direct damage, particularly to Photosystem II, and may lead to a decrease in the de-epoxidation state (DEPS ratio) which indicates a reduced capacity to dissipate excess energy. Plants can respond to UV stress by increasing the synthesis of xanthophyll cycle pigments, such as violaxanthin and zeaxanthin, to improve their photoprotective capacity. UV-induced changes in xanthophyll cycle pigments can be linked to a plant's overall tolerance to high radiation stress. The xanthophyll cycle helps protect against photoinhibition, which is especially important when the plant is exposed to high levels of both UV and visible light. High doses of UV radiation can directly damage photosynthetic components, including the proteins, lipids, and pigments in the thylakoid membranes. Exposure to UV radiation can have a mixed effect on the de-epoxidation state (DEPS ratio) of the xanthophyll cycle pigments. In some cases, UV can inhibit the conversion of violaxanthin to zeaxanthin, resulting in a lower DEPS ratio and a reduced capacity for energy dissipation. However, the total pool of xanthophyll cycle pigments may increase, and this enhanced pool size could provide a greater potential for photoprotection despite a lower DEPS ratio. The xanthophyll cycle works alongside other mechanisms, such as the accumulation of flavonoids (UV screens), to protect the plant from UV-induced damage. Blue light repairs 100% UV-induced damage in plants through a process called photoreactivation, which uses a light-dependent enzyme called photolyase. This enzyme uses energy from blue and UV-A light to directly reverse the damaging pyrimidine dimers in the DNA caused by UV-B radiation, a key mechanism for maintaining the plant's genetic integrity. After carbon, light, water, temperature, and nutrients, the limiting factor of a plant's growth is often its own internal factors or the amount of a key ingredient. Chlorophyll concentration is one such factor, as the amount of this pigment limits how much light can be captured for photosynthesis. Other factors include chloroplast number, respiration rate, and the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, as plants are often in a CO2-deficient condition. 60x60x18=64800seconds x 700 = 45,360,000moles. 45DLI Exposure to 165 µW/cm² of ultraviolet-B (UV-B) light for 3600 seconds = 1 hour, a extremely high, acute dose triggering stress responses and protective mechanisms. . The plant's photoreceptor protein, UVR8, senses the UV-B radiation. This triggers a signaling cascade that activates specific genes to protect the plant from damage. In response to the UV-B signal, the plant ramps up the biosynthesis of protective compounds like flavonoids, phenolic acids, and anthocyanins. These compounds absorb UV radiation and accumulate in the epidermal layers of leaves to shield inner photosynthetic tissues. The plant may increase leaf thickness or deposit more cuticular wax, creating a physical barrier to the radiation. The plant will produce more enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants to neutralize the reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by the UV-B radiation. The plant activates enzymes, including photolyases, to repair DNA damage caused by the UV-B. These repair mechanisms are critical for preventing permanent genetic mutations. While protective measures are activated, a high dose delivered over a short period can cause stress that overwhelms the plant's defenses. Photosynthesis is highly sensitive to UV-B. A high dose can inactivate Photosystem II (PSII), damage thylakoid membranes within the chloroplasts, and reduce chlorophyll content, which lowers the plant's overall photosynthetic capacity. Despite repair mechanisms, high UV-B doses can inflict persistent damage on the plant's DNA. One study found that acute, high-dose UV-B had a greater effect on genome stability than chronic, low-dose exposure. The overproduction of reactive oxygen species can cause oxidative stress, leading to the oxidation of lipids and proteins and disrupting cellular function.
