Our beauty is now 6 weeks old and has officially entered the flowering stage! She has gained noticeable height and bushiness, showing off her healthy growth and vibrant energy. We've installed a net and gently guided her underneath to maximize the potential of each branch and ensure even light distribution. The light schedule remains 12/12. Daytime temperature is a steady 28°C, nighttime drops to 21°C, and humidity stays at 65%. We continue feeding her with Xpert Nutrients, providing all the essential elements she needs during flowering. CO2 supplementation also continues, supporting her vigorous development. A huge thank you to Xpert Nutrients for their top-quality fertilizers — it’s thanks to them our girl is entering the flowering phase with such strength and confidence .

Start of week 10. I will plan for a harvest at the end of this week. I will watch the trichomes. I'm planning to flush for 3 days at a low ppm. A lower branch that broke under bud wait should be ready to sample Friday. Ok I sampled some half dry bud. The bud was from a thin lower branch which bent down and broke. The worst possible bud as it was far from the lights and not dry. I cut up the bud and put it in my Pax vape. Pre heating the vape a few times hoping to finish the drying process. The sample was surprisingly smooth with a nice head high and no mad munchies. The smell had a licorice/anise pine smell. This is a good energy strain that hits fast. Too early to comment on smell or taste without proper dry and cure. I will harvest plant in twoish days if all goes well with flush.

Hi, everybody. With you back in touch with the Russian gardener. Today I decided to show you my friend's tent. The size of 100 cm by 100 cm has 5 plants of auto AK 47. 5 plants-63 days. 9 weeks. He did not do LST training, but pulled them with a lamp, raising it every week by 10 cm. This is one of the most common cannabis strains on the Russian market. Thanks to strong undemanding genetics, grows almost anywhere in the most adverse conditions, great for the harsh Russian climate and for novice gardeners who with minimal skills want to get the most. As you can see, yesterday we planted 21 sprouted young plants that are preparing for guerrilla cultivation in the open air Later, when we grow them outdoors, I will create a separate diary with a detailed description. Despite the little experience of growth, my friend is a good student and a reliable person, we have grown grass together and harvested. That's why I trust him. Except him, more no one knows about my Hobbies. In this case it is necessary to observe secrecy.

She is starting to getting fat, at the begginning of this week, it was raining, but in the middle of the week, sunny days are appearing, and she is loving it, drastically increased eating levels, in 1-2 days, lower leaves started to yellow, but i noticed soon and gave a good dose with 4ml/l Top BLoom + some carbohydrates, Top Candy 2ml/l, and now she is lovin it. That purple colours appearing...no words... Simply a blessing, even more beautiful :D Last videos are about what i think are Chemtrails, like ie said before, the week started with rainy days, but when the sun came, this kind of biodegradable material appeared again like it is usual, it could be identified as spiderwebs if you dont look closer, but when you touch it is like soap and disappears... Guys and Ladies, let me know what you think if you want to stick a comment :) Take Care GD !!!

Edit: I came home from work after making my weekly log entry yesterday and I could smell my grow from my driveway... so I asked for help. THANK YOU OOZLEFINCH FOR THE HELP.. THIS IS WHY WE ASK FOR HELP... I left a question on here stating that my new canister wasn't working and asked for generic advise. He left an answer that pointed out the fact that my exhaust fan might be set waaaay to high... and it was! It turns out there's a limit to the amount of air that filter fan 'scrub', and my exhaust fan goes way over that limit even on 6 or 7.. I turned it down to 3 and the smell got better immediately. ☮️ Still on auto pilot at this point... I'm really close to harvest.. and I'm not even on day 60 😲. I created videos this weeks, they capture the plants in ways that a still picture just won't. My entire house stinks.. my neighbors are looking at my funny, and my wife thinks a family of skunks is hiding in our walls... I've never had this problem.. I even got a brand new carbon air scrubber and its not helping 🤣 Process/ Environment changes since last week: - To help preserve the terpenes I've been trying to lower my temperature, which is hard without an AC unit I'm not plugging in an ac just to grow some plants. I'm at 24- 26 degrees C (75 - 82 F). - I've been lowering my humidity accordingly to keep VPD in a good range - I lowered my lights closer to my plants, turning them up would just add to the heat. - I'm defoliating as much large fan leaves off as possible - My watering pH is at around 6.7 to 6.8.. I will not be flushing these plants - I rotate my plants every day to make sure I'm getting light to hit every node it can This week I'm pulling out the digital scope and doing the first trichome checks for these babies. The cheese auto is going to get the chop by the end of next week.. I hope you like the video I added of it.. it's the easiest plant I've ever grown and she's going to be FIRE. The blackberry auto is giving off a gas/berry smell and is very sticky to the touch. A beautiful triploid... my first and I hope to get many more. The Forbidden Runtz smells just like a zkittles does, it's bang on. Very dense very sticky buds. I almost tossed her during the seedling stage too due to her mutation. I'm glad I reconsidered ☮️ Thank you Fastbuds

In week 9 my TRICHOME-WONDERS are doing GREAT! All plants continue to grow new flower crowns all over the plants. The branches starts to form colas now...its an impressive sight. The healthy green color and speedy devlopment tells me that the BIO-TABS nutrient tablets are still doing a FINE JOB! I love how convenient and time-saving my waterings are, since the plants ONLY GET PURE TAB-WATER. No more measuring and adjusting ph- and EC-levels feels like a LIBERATION...lol 😄 A few plants like the Strawberry-Sour-Siesel from DevilHarvestOriginal-Seeds are getting so tall, that I need to control their height. My favorite method to do this is SUPER-CROPPING! This is a method promoted by SOMA from SOMA-Seeds and works perfectly to control the height of a plant without having to top her. I pinch the main-stem of the plant (appr. 25-30 cm from the top, right above a node) all around in a circle, so hard that I can feel the fibers inside brake. Then I bend the top part of the stem downwards (ar at least 90 degrees to the side) and let it hang there. The plant will start to heal the stem where it was pinched (it will form an elbow-like shape) and turn the bent part of the stem upwards again. During this time the side-branches grow further in height and the plant will get bushier instead of taller. After the stem repaired itself, the buds on it will turn towards the lights as well and will continue to flower. This way I can control the height and still harvest the top-buds later.

Scrog netting is becoming a challenge, I am trying to fill bottom right corner but the plant continues to grow in all directions. The areas that are filled keep growing, I have stopped topping and keep tucking. I have put 4 clones in the corner because I do not want to wait anymore as my 2x4 will get too big during the flower cycle of this tent. Turned off light and will keep off for 48 hours, officially starting the flip into flower cycle. Plants look good, no issues so this is the perfect time for me. Wish me luck, I hear this strain loves to really stretch. Fed nutes at 50%, they just got off a lockout so taking it easy, they'll tell me when to up the feed.

Day 80 This morning I started defoliating Tropicana. She will be in the darkness for the next days. I already harvested a part of the head flower and let it dry trimmed. Because of extreme weather conditions and very high humidity I got a little bud rott. I found it out quit early I think. So I hope nothing will not happen any more. Just harvesting relaxed and drink a Tropicana tee. Day 81 I decided to cut her down in the evening. The humidity in the basement room is high and I don‘t want to risk here anything anymore. Waiting for my first homegrown weed to be vaped. Day 82 Tropicanas flowers hanging to dry in my basement. I check them once per day with a strong light. Day 83 Same same. The smell is wonderful like a bit of gas combined with a fruity flower bouquet. Our neighbors in the house like the smell, too. 🙏 Day 84 I could try my first homegrown weed. It‘s absolutely tasty and have a very smooth vape. I was very surprised cause it‘s not cured yet. A longer vape report will follow when it‘s dried and cured. Day 88 All flowers, sugar- and tee leafs are trimmed and filled in glasses for curing. I open twice per day for 20 minutes. Boveda packs 58% inside. I will fill out the rest of the diarie when my buds are dried, cured and vaped. So far this was a very exciting journey for me. Growing cannabis and even legal on our balcony. Feels still a bit unreal, but it’s real! Thank you for reading my diary! Thanks to all the people who worked on legalizing cannabis in Germany, especially to the „Deutscher Hanfverband (DHV)“! I will give more updates and write a vape report after curing several weeks. Maybe with some Tropicana Cookies baked in Comfreys garden kitchen.

6/7/2021: - First true leaves growing nicely. - Noticing soil mites. - Gnats are starting to become attracted. Hopefully the neem and karanja cake in the soil will keep them out of the growing medium. Will top dress as necessary. - Made Thai chili pepper insecticidal soap. - Began fermenting lactobacillus + wild yeast starter.

Welcome to week 8 / week 5 of flowering! Many more pistils have turned amber and harvest time is closing in. I’m aiming for a nighttime smoke, so I’ll hold out until she has 50% amber trichomes. ✅Day 50: 100oz of water. No runoff. Seems like she isn’t drinking as much lately. Bud trichomes are mostly still all cloudy. ✅Day 51: No water. The fade is really kicking in now. Some sugar leaves are looking black! ✅Day 52: No water. ✅Day 53: 144oz of water. No runoff. The pot was very dry. She needed a big drink. ✅Day 54: No water. ✅Day 55: 136oz of water. No runoff. She is smelling even stronger now. ✅Day 56: No water.

Week 3, 22-28 August 2025 22-28 Aug - Observed and let the seedling grow. This was another rather slow week in growth. But there is still plenty of time for this seedling to become a nice plant. There was an issue with a leaf getting stuck under my PH monitor that eventually had to be removed, kind of early to be cutting off leaves but it is what it is. Added expanded clay pebbles to the plant pot to help extend the root system. This week was also the first reservoir nutrient change. - 27 Aug changed nutrient solution - 27 Aug updated feeding schedule - Using reverse osmosis water with EC/TDS at 0 - Adjusting PH to 6.1 daily using GH up/down - Nutrient solution EC 1.1 at 68 degrees F - Light power at 30%, DLI 18 canopy coverage at 18hrs - Using PYPABL, Air Pump, 400GPH That is it for this week. Thanks for the look, read and stopping by.

Die Woche ist sehr gut verlaufen, ich habe gestern die überschüssigen sonnensegel entfernt das mehr Licht an die unteren Triebe kommt, die Lampen auf 60cm Entfernung gehalten bei 40 Prozent Licht Leistung. Am Sonntag leite ich die Blüte ein! Bisher super Genetik, nach dem beschneiden kein Wachstums stop null Stress Zeichen, ich bin sehr zufrieden bisher mit Purple City Genetics 😘😊 Schöne Woche euch allen 👾 The week went very well. Yesterday I removed the excess awnings so that more light could reach the lower shoots and kept the lamps at a distance of 60cm with 40 percent light output. I'll start flowering on Sunday! Great genetics so far, no growth stop after pruning, zero stress signs, I'm very happy with Purple City Genetics so far 😘😊 Have a nice week everyone 👾
