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.

Flower stretch and bud sites are setting. Lots of tops from the lst. Fingers crossed.

Found some leaves showing defiencies, but not a big problem so far. It looks like Mag. defiency. Ph outcome was 6.2 so the ph lockout is not what the problem was. Will see next week if more yellowing will come or not. Plants dont look like there is some serious problem with growing, so all cool.

My Skunk Apple Run plant is still a bit young, but I can see those buds starting to form. It's a bit of a slow starter, with buds popping up all over the place instead of a nice even line. We'll see if adjusting the light cycle or its food might help it along. I'll keep you posted on any changes. The past few weeks have been so beautiful, watching the plants grow and change. It's amazing how something so small and fragile can turn into something so strong and vibrant. Now that they're getting ready to bloom, it feels a little bittersweet. I'm so excited to see the finished product, but I'll definitely miss having them around while they're growing.

Happy GrowingHarvested at 15 weeks and the royal runtz will be a staple in my tent from here on exactly what I like to smoke the taste the buzz is perfect high and I'm a Head 💯 since birth so. The plant was a bit hollow didn't produce much all my errors I'm pretty positive but damn It is good . I also ran a sherbet queen . It is the opposite of what I really like I don't care for that cookie lemon mild high on the other hand it produced double and is still good smoke just for my preferences lacking ice got it hanging in a dark closet ac blasting and small fan circulating air . Then I'll jar it and maybe if let it cure a week or two if I can . Maybe also sherb top was 100 gs fresh and Runtz top was 60 gs fresh cut also I think I really did damage more than good in the flush process

Week Eleven Week Five of Flower and everything goes nicely, buds are getting bigger. Check the video to see all plants. Stretch is done. fighting fungus nats. Watering with tapwater only with no ph testing. I did a sort of Recharche with the colonize and some liquid feeding 5-2-5 in low dosage. I think we are close to the infamous answer „two weeks“ to the question „are they ready harvest?“ We will wait till they are ready. Thx for checking my grow

The buds of the Lemon Og Candy have some awesome orange hairs and the smell is really starting to spread. Now I know why it has candy in the name. Further decreasing humidity. Good that its cold and dry outside. Also stopped watering for the last 6 days to further decrease humidity. Then I gave 15L into the big pot and 3L into the small one.

What's happening?! Sorry for being a day late. But the buds on WISDOM and PATIENCE are very sticky and have a great fragrance. I have cut the feeding servings down to one nutrient, which is the Tiger Bloom, to focus on the last stages of flowering. With ANNIE and LOYALTY(White Widow), I only feed them Morbloom. When growing outside, your cultivation takes a bit longer. You have to allow nature to run it's coarse. To all growers, stay dangerous. There is no point playing defense.
