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.

Not a record breaking yield but a few rock hard colas.. first time we've topped an auto and in not displeased with the results..we have a bad habit of not weighing wet/dry as this is all for personal use but we will get weights on the next plant... rough guess would be 1.5oz maybe a little more..this is a very sleepy strain but has been a great change from all the Kush..thanks for reading and happy growing 🐱

Fantastic week. Lots has changed. Plants are stacking something fierce! I cut out the nitrogen completely this week, qnd that's how it will stay for the duration of the rest of the grow. I have found with autos, i have had the best luck when I push them hard with nitrogen up until this stage in growth. I then cut out the nitrogen completely and up the bloom nutes quite dramatically. For the rest of the grow I will feed every watering. Water at a 6.4 ph. Gro- 0ml per gal Micro- 10ml per gal Bloom- 15ml per gal Bug bud- 5ml per gal Very much looking forward to watching this batch swell!! These Hubbabubbasmellascope are a strange run! 3 plants look one way, the other 3 look totally different. But stacked with bud sites nevertheless. Next week I will add photos of them side by side. This strain is coming along nicely, with a strong smell of double bubble!

Start of week 3 everything looking good. On day 16 I transplanted them to fabric pots. Except for the absolute unit in the middle. I left that one alone as it seems to have overtaken everything else. Using RO water and I add tiny amount of tap water to bring PH up to around 6.2. 3Liters RO and 250ml of my tap turned it into 6.2 ish PH from 5.8

Tag 82: Hab mich nun doch entschieden , da die Trichome wirklich zu 90% Milchig sind , die Dame am Stamm abzuhacken . (Extra ein kleines Beil gekauft (scherz)) . Dann im Stück einfach Kopfüber . Abluft ist an , Ventilator unter der Spitze . Jetzt noch 4-5 Tage warten (je nach Temp und Feuchte) . Und dann schauen wir mal was es wird .Für mich wichtig , viel Feuchtigkeit im Raum , ich will das sie auch nach dem Trocknen noch kleben . Ergo hab ich den Stoftopf drinne stehen gelassen . Tag 82-88: Kopfübertrocknung + Temperatur : 21°C - 23°C) + Lüftfeuchtigkeit : 52%rH-60%rH + VPD kleiner gleich 1.2 + 4 bis 5 Tage Ich versuche maximal einen VPD von 1.2 zu halten für ca 4-5 Tage. Tag 85: Ein Video hinzugefühgt wo ihr das Trockenzelt sehen könnt. Die LED hab ich genau unter der Abluft angebracht damit kein einseitiger Luftzug entsteht, dafür mit mehr Power . Tag 86: Video von der Kopfüberhängenden hinzugefühgt. Tag 88: 5 Tage lang getrocknet , Blüten vom Stiel getrennt und in Schalen in den Weinkühlschrank mit Silikatgel für die Feuchteregelung. Tag 90: Trichome aufgenommen. CureBoxen geschlossen nach 2 Tagen im Weinkühler Next Step: Bouveda 58% , Sauerstoffabsorbierer

HOLA A TODO EL MUNDO!!!!.😃😃🙌🙌 ESTA SEMANA HE REALIZADO EL DOBLAJE DE LAS RAMAS PRINCIPALES, ES LA PRIMERA VEZ QUE UTILIZO ESTA TECNICA, ASIQUE ESPERO QUE FUNCIONE, DOBLE LOS TALLOS PARA QUE LA PLANTA EMPIECE A ESTIRASE A LOS COSTADOS. HE REALIZADO UN RIEGO CON top Veg, de @TopCrop AUMENTE LA DOSIS A 3ML X LITRO DE AGUA. EL RESTO DE LOS DIAS HE REGADO SOLO CON AGUA, CON PH 6.3. CREO QUE NO TENGO MAS NADA PARA DECIR😅😅, MAS QUE DESEARLES A TODOS UN BUEN 2026, LLENO DE COGOLLOS GIGANTES🙌😃🤭😊

Slowly increasing nutrients and lowing the pH a little at a time. Growth is a little slower than I anticipated, but I've read that coco often starts out a little on the slow side. Both girls don't have the sturdiest stems, but I've added some support and fans to try and get those trunks a little stronger. I know the Meph guide talks about funny leaves, and both of these girls have a little something special about them. Reggie is much bigger and had some two lobes younger leaves whereas Weezie is smaller in stature but stared out with more uniform leaves, but now has a funny ripple. It's always fun to watch how they grow! I was hoping to top them, but now I'm getting cold feet...

Guys. Holy shit these genetics are fuckin fire.. assuming the next 4 weeks go fine. Day 27 of flower These trigger so damn fast, stacked so many bracts from day 21 to day... we’re not even to day 28 guys. These look like day 35 shit. Oh my goodness this is impressive if I may say so. Now the main thing is gonna he not fucking up the feeds. These are tiny containers and we are having salt build ups as a result of the quick dryback. Flushing tomorrow with light nutes to cleanse any of that BS These all look amazing. Mosaics have some color to them.. one more so than others. Check these folks out. www.gnosticfarms.com Also, they started up another company selling their amendments, all natural shit. Soil sorcery it’s called. http://soilsorcery.com/ Highly recommend this if you are against salts..

Week 3 – She’s coming along strong! Already showing those classic autoflower traits early on, around day 15. The growth is picking up fast now, especially with the space to stretch out in that 10L pot. You can really see the structure starting to form – compact but full of energy. Let’s see how much she stretches over the next week!

Let’s see , humidity is an issue . It’s higher than I’d like it to be . I added drip pans & two different miniature forms of dehumidifiers one electronic and the other passive . I need recommendations on affordable dehumidifiers before I run into mold issues . After breaking the apical dominance there was one or two issues but it gave me all the more admiration for the genetics to take a beating and still remain unbothered & WHOLE . A main top was bound too tightly & broke in half trying to pull itself back up . It remained broken and unnoticed for atleast 3 days before I saw the damage and taped it . She is now almost fully scarred over & healed . Vertical growth was decent this week I wouldn’t describe it as fast or explosive. Still watering to activate the dry amendments I can tell they haven’t began taking it up quite yet. Holy shit do they stink when not premixed into the soil before planting ! Just monitoring & trying to get as much dense continuous resin packed bud stacked up in there .

The war against mildew rages on. I will not lose. We are almost to the finish line... Stay tuned!! The second PK plant - the green one - is not suffering the mildew infection, the buds are huge and fat! Its a real trade-off and the purple PK is not easy to grow.
