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.

Week 8 Update – Height Issues and Frosty Buds 🌿❄️ No major complaints this week—everything is under control, except for the height of AN#3… but Supercropping to the rescue! 😅 BioBizz#1 – BT30 She’s now using less water, managing 3L every 3 days. Bud development is steady, but compared to AN#4, she’s noticeably less frosty. AN#4 – BT30 This is officially my best and strongest plant so far—super frosty, even on the large fan leaves! 😍 She’s also down to 3.5L every 3 days and thriving. AN#3 – BT26 Not performing as well as the others, mainly due to the light distance. At times, there’s only 4cm clearance from the lamp! She’s definitely not loving it, but I’ve managed to keep things under control with Supercropping. I have to admit, the stretch on this strain caught me off guard, and I’m not entirely happy about it. 😅

Last week :) within 7 days, 4 times only tap water + pH down, so pH 6.26 / 6.30 :) don't ask how many 10l buckets of solution I poured into the toilet during these 12 weeks, but now there is full control of the hydrogen potential :) Today 04-07-20 my baby has been cut and she is already drying, of course, in full darkness, the exhausted air is filtered through a carbon filter, it works good at this point 0% smell outside.. Inside, the tent has a beautiful sweet smell, and the lemon note shows up when I touch buds. Max temperature 25 * C, humidity worries me 57%, I have to invest in a good air dehumidifier. As soon as I collect my flowers, I will give my result. This is my first plant so I'm waiting impatiently, I can't even assess whether it will be two ounces or maybe more :D It is certain that I have not even approached half the potential of this genetics. Auto Lemon Kix is ​​easy going seed for beginners, but using its potential is a completely different gravity. A person without experience like me, having a small tent 1.60 m high, will certainly have problems with kix dimensions a specially her high . Fortunately, my 1x1x2 tent gave me the opportunity to adjust the equipment inside without bending my treasure, which would be a drastic solution. Next I think about indica, of course Dutch Passion, and later Auto Lemon Kix once again : D I hope I didn't bore to death anyone and see you in the next diary FOLKS :D

Mouth watering flavour, clean smoke, and it only gets better ! Barley a week into the cure and I'm already craving more of this strain Updated True Wattage, and fixed square footage of tent harvest was easy, could of gotten more yeil but she flowered early from some LST, would let this girl grow naturally in the future Buds turned out nice and chunky lots of sugar leaves just packed with sticky trichs She pressed out alright, could try a again but .4 return on 3.5 grams of bud gives 14-15% return on the first press of this strain none the less this girl puts out some wicked flavors can't wait till shes fully cured in a month :)

Not too much on the scale but the terps and the intensity of the smoke is great. Two very distinct phenos that makes it so much interesting to understand the differences between.

Two weeks!! Ladies looking great, no nutes needed so far... I've been watering every other day with nothing but voodoo juice, I might be giving them a couple weeks more before flipping them into 12/12!!

Overall plant wet weight was 2,6 kg after initial trim and removal of all stems, it came down to 2,1 kg, which will end up up somewhere in the high 300s maybe 400 gr dry. Harvested a bit in a hurry as the one mutated bud on the plant looked a bit funky and I feared but rot (all other buds look rot free so far). Tried to take some nice pictures with the plant out of the tent, however she was not able to support herself at all and I will there fore post some nicer pictures of the finished product . I have to say for a, in the beginning, pretty small plant, she turned out very nice and I would definitely grow her again.

So, guys.. This is her first month blooming. 4 complete weeks has passed. Here we are for 2 more. Gave Her a super powerful egg shell fert (all powdered - Phosforium Whelthy.) 07/10/20 - We are in the middle of week 5. Thats the way they look like. For me a good number of buds and they are as dense as I thought they would be by this time. I think everything is under control despite some foxtails cuz the heat. Loving the experience.

Hey folks. Into week 17, ran into some issues with plant #1 with total failure due to a windstorm and my laziness for not putting supports up sooner! Lesson learnt. Added bamboo stakes and supported most of the big heavy colas. Rain has been an issue so I slapped the ladies under the tent and a week ago sprayed some neem oil as preventive maint for powdery mildew. Iv cut watering in half due to the high humi levels and rain we been getting. Chop day is around thr corner! Hope you guys enjoy the content
