Hey Grow Diaries fam, Welcome back to another update on our PCR adventure! We're at Week 9, which marks Week 4 of the flowering stage, and things are getting exciting! Overview The PCRs are flourishing, and the transformation is nothing short of spectacular. The tent is buzzing with energy, and every day brings new developments. The buds are swelling beautifully, and the trichome production is off the charts. This week has been all about maintaining optimal conditions and ensuring our ladies get everything they need to reach their full potential. Environment and Conditions Tent: 3x3, cleaned and prepped from top to bottom to ensure a pristine environment. Lighting: ViparSpectra P2000, delivering a perfect spectrum for this stage of growth. The balanced PAR output and efficient energy use keep our girls happy and thriving. Watering: TDS at 410, pH 5.8, and water temperature at 21°C. This ensures the nutrients are perfectly balanced and readily available. Nutrient Regimen We’ve kept up with our Aptus Holland feeding schedule, and it's paying off big time. Here's the current mix: Nutritional Spray: Aptus Holland NutriSpray to keep those leaves lush and healthy. TopBooster: Replaced StartBooster with TopBooster to promote flower development. P-Boost: Added to the mix for that extra phosphorus kick, crucial for blooming. K-Boost: a must for them to go fat as we like. The results speak for themselves – lush green foliage and robust bud formation. Defoliation At the end of this week, we performed a mass defoliation. It's always a bit nerve-wracking, but the results are worth it. Removing excess leaves ensures better light penetration and airflow, reducing the risk of mold and pests. Plus, it allows the plant to focus its energy on bud production. And let me tell you, after the defoliation, the PCRs look sexy as ever with their long legs and sculpted structure! Clones Update Our clones are thriving, showing the longest and whitest roots I've ever seen. We treated them with a water mix that included K-Boost and Mycor Mix at 1 gram per liter. This combination has worked wonders, promoting vigorous root development and overall plant health. Reflections This week has been a testament to the importance of a clean environment and precise nutrient management. The PCRs are responding exceptionally well, and I couldn’t be more thrilled with their progress. We're well on our way to an incredible harvest, and I can't wait to see these beauties in full bloom. A huge shout out to: Aptus Holland: For the top-notch nutrients and constant support. You guys rock! Art Genetix: For creating such an incredible strain. The PCRs are truly something special. Grow Diaries Community: Your support and feedback are invaluable. Keep the positive vibes coming! Here’s to another fantastic week of growing! Stay positive, keep pushing forward, and enjoy every moment of this beautiful journey.

10.06 - I planted 11 Savage seeds and 10 OG Lemonade seeds for germination. I use a heat propagator, a few drops of hydrogen dioxide for disinfection, and a few drops of clonex. 12.06 - Tommorow all will sprout and I will put them into the 1,5L pot! 13.06 - 21 / 21 Sprouted all in the pots. I add 700g Earth Vibe Soil from Lurpe Solution for 50L of Soil. 14.06 - I'm waiting for them. This time is always full of stress. It will appear or no ? :P I add some my genetics to help them :P. 18.06 - I hope that till tomorrow they will all show up and I can start a first veg week. 22.06 - For this moment I have a 19/21. I accidentally damaged it with my hunger-shaking hand. remember to get to work on germination and cuttings after you have eaten. Now I waiting for leafs and switching on first Veg week.

A slow start for this plant and it’s still pretty skinny but it looks like it will pull through.

Strain: Divine Seeds – AK47 XL Grow Type: Indoor Pot Size: 7 Gallon Medium: Peat Moss & Perlite Nutrient Line: Athena (Bloom) Week 5 Update She’s doing great this week getting a little taller and showing steady progress as she settles into flower. She’s taking her nutrients well with little to no deficiencies, just a slight yellowing on the tips, but nothing too concerning at the moment. It’s week two of flower, and everything looks fine so far. Hoping to see more pistil coverage and early bud development as the week goes on. Feeding 1.7 L Athena Bloom nutrient mix (will raise gradually if needed). Indoor Climate Conditions Temperature: 18–23°C Humidity: 60–65% VPD: ~0.5–0.8 kPa See y’all next week!

I also darkened the room so that no sunlight disturbs the drying process.😏 "Darkroom" Day 2 for "Hilde" 😏😄😜

10 weeks from seed to harvest. The nutrient line I was using didn’t give me optimal growth, for this strain and my level of experience. Had some great growth and veg time, about 4 weeks, but when flower kicked in they got beastly. I would say I had two different phenos of this strain, and the one pheno that is unique, had slightly looser buds than the other two. This could be because of the LST/super cropping of the main cola. The other two had nice rock hard frosty buds and have similar smells and profile. The other one has more citrus, and was a bit lanky, more sativa in looks. Overall, easy enough to grow, no major surprises, and decent enough yield for 10 weeks. This is a strain that could have been better had I not had some issues with either lockout/deficiencies.

Logan's Run is up and running. She received her first worm casting tea yesterday. She is praying today and tomorrow she will begin getting Bloom. I should have taken some of her secondaries per the guide, but they were long and flowering by the time I could tie her down. They have stood, and I think I will get a inner ring of secondaries for my trouble. She is is doing great. I have had a slight gnat problem, but I have gotten it under control with DE. Just put it in a lid, and left it near the plants. Cleaned the tent, and both girls are doing good. Happy farming, see ya next week.

As I predicted the weather last week guess what?... it was a cold and wet week. My main issue its yellowing of the wedding cake. think i as to do with the cold weather as she is the close to the door. I allso burned then a litle with the foliar. The instruction clearly say it may burn withe heat and light aply at night. Guess what?... it was midday.... Black Cream Its Growing Good. Couckush its a litle bit burned. Growing good. Chubby Litle plant for now. Bomberry its starting to become the beast as is leaves size show. Totally diferent genetics Cheers BrotherHood

First week of flower lots of notes to come stay tuned !!! So first week of flower notes will have to make up for my lack of content . I was on the covid train so I was pretty sick this week ( no excuse but it is what it is ) Minimal stretching so far this week she did very well with plucking and taking a majority of leaves off with great ease !!! Big fan leaves strong structure it's gonna make for so massive spudz down the road !! They are now in the Autopot system so I'm excited to see how that works out !!!!

End of the first few days of the transition. They all got a significant defoliation to open up space in the canopy for branching and the plants responded incredibly well to it. Plants 1&2 started to show immediate deficiency signs after defoliation and I upped the nute ratios by about 50%/liter with the Berkana. Voracious feeder and growers these are for sure. That said, their growth rate is phenomenal and the side branching is especially impressive and responsive to training. Veg. Maturity on all of em for the last week so it’s a fast growing strain all around👌. Well throw down the scrog net in a couple of days after we hack out the lower portions of each plant and take clones for all of em but the runt (#8). The clones will be flowered fast in the aeroponic cloner and pollinated for F3 generation seed. Bud characteristics on this run will then determine which clones get tested first based on best characteristics of the lot. So far this run has been incredibly impressive but only the bud quality will tell the true tale. Here’s hoping for continued good progress. ***Grow notes: stretching at about 1/2” per day over the last 3 days of transition. Side branching reaching enough maturity to start taking cuts. Minor deficiency signs post-defol. So increasing nute ratios on a slightly accelerated basis continues to be the norm.

Three different strains from LIT Farms (https://litfarms.com). Check them out if you haven't heard of them. Looks like they have some fire 🔥 genetics. I'm about to find out!! 12/30/2022: Started all of the seeds in a cup of distilled water, with a splash of hydrogen peroxide for 24 hours. 12/31/2022: moved into a damp paper towel, using the same water/hydrogen peroxide mix the seeds soaked in. 1/1/2023: 5 of 6 seeds germinated and are showing a small tail. The Frozen White Runtz, Ice Bath, and 3 out of 4 of the Grand Prix. Still planted all 6. The Grand Prix #4 is the one that was not showing a tail yet. Still holding out hope. Only plan to plant 2 of the Grand Prix, so I'm not concerned yet. Hopefully I get two female!!! Planted all the seeds into a solo cup, filled with BuildASoil Light, and watered with ThermX-70, Rootwise Micro Complete, and some fresh aloe juice from an aloe plant in my back yard. My daughter got to pick the color of the solo cups, so looks like we are using pink, haha. Added a light mulch layer of barley straw, and put in my tent under 18 hours of light. 1/3/2023: the same seeds that cracked two days ago broke the surface today, so I'm calling this Day 1. I checked the Grand Prix #4 and decided to cut my losses and throw in a new seed directly into the cup. We'll see if this one pops and can catch up. 1/5/2023 - Day 3: The five seeds that germinated look healthy. The Grand Prix 3 has some leaf curl on it's first set of leaves, but I'm not worried. Still nothing from Grand Prix 4. Cups are all still wet enough so not much else to do but wait at this point. They have been averaging about 85° with 80% RH. 1/6/2022: the new Grand Prix 4 has germinated, but it has not pushed through the soil yet. I cand see the soil bulging, so I'm thinking tomorrow! The other 5 are looking good and the cover crop on the bed is coming in strong. 1/7/2023: The replacement Grand Prix #4 sprouted! Now let's hope I get at least two female of the Grand Prix for the 3x3. It's a waiting game now.

Ende Woche 7. Ich habe die Gute ordentlich entlaubt, mini Buds entfernt und alles so hingebogen, dass es gut Licht bekommt. An Tag 48 gab es 2,5 g Pflanzengeflüster (Harpin-Protein) auf 1 L Wasser als Wurzeltränke, da ich so weit in der Blüte nichts mehr sprühen möchte, obwohl Harpin über Blattdüngung viel besser wirkt. Beim ursprünglichen Mix der Erde hatte ich einen Denkfehler bei der Düngermenge, daher wurden die fehlenden 200 g jetzt noch oben aufs Substrat gegeben und dann mit frischer Erde abgedeckt.

RSV11 grew really well. She has some big musky smelling colas on her. Lots of sagging in the branches from the weight. She has a musky earthy smell. Nice layer of frost as well. I will try to get more information on her by the final weight video. Thank you Spider Farmer, and Terpyz mutant Genetics. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱❄️ Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇.
