Hey Grow Diaries fam, We’ve reached Week 12, which marks Week 8 of flowering, and our PCRs are entering the final stretch! This is a crucial time in our grow, and we've made some significant changes to our routine to ensure the best possible finish for our beloved plants. Overview Our PCRs are looking absolutely stunning, with buds swelling to their full potential and trichomes sparkling like diamonds. This week, we’ve shifted our focus to flushing and preparing the soil for future use. Environment and Conditions Tent: 3x3, kept clean and efficient for optimal growing conditions. Lighting: ViparSpectra P2000, still providing the perfect spectrum as we approach harvest. Watering: TDS at 130, pH 6.8, and water temperature at 21°C, a significant shift from our previous nutrient-rich regimen. Nutrient Regimen This week, we’ve stopped all nutrient feedings and switched to using Aptus Holland Enzym+ exclusively. Here’s why: Aptus Holland Enzym+: This enzyme product is designed to break down dead root material and organic matter, converting it into usable nutrients for the plant. This process helps in: Clearing Residual Nutrients: Ensuring that the plants use up any remaining nutrients in the soil. Improving Soil Health: Enhancing the soil's microbial life, which is crucial for future grows. Promoting Clean Finish: Helping to ensure a smoother, cleaner taste in the final product by reducing excess nutrients and salts in the buds. The shift to Enzym+ at this stage is about preparing the plants for harvest and also ensuring that the soil can be reused effectively. Growth and Development The PCRs are in their final flowering phase, and they look incredible. With the nutrients now being flushed out, we’re focusing on maximizing the quality of the final buds. The leaves are starting to fade, signaling that the plants are using up their stored nutrients, which is exactly what we want to see at this stage. Soil Reuse One of the key advantages of using Aptus Holland products, especially Enzym+, is the ability to reuse the soil. Here’s how we do it: Soil Conditioning: The enzymes break down organic matter, improving soil structure and fertility. Microbial Boost: Enhances microbial activity, which is essential for nutrient cycling and soil health. Cost-Effective: Reusing soil reduces costs and minimizes waste, making our grow more sustainable. By reusing the soil, we ensure that our next grow starts with a rich, healthy medium, full of beneficial microbes and ready to support another batch of robust plants. Reflections This week has been all about transitioning our plants from heavy feeding to a clean finish. The Aptus Holland Enzym+ is doing its job beautifully, and the PCRs are responding well. The reduced TDS and adjusted pH are ensuring that we’re flushing out any residual nutrients, setting us up for a top-notch harvest. Shout Outs A huge shout out to: Aptus Holland: Your products make every stage of this grow a success. Enzym+ is a game-changer! Art Genetix: The PCRs continue to impress with their vigor and quality. Grow Diaries Community: Your support and advice are invaluable. Here’s to another fantastic week of growing! Stay positive, keep those good vibes flowing, and let’s get ready for a bountiful harvest.

Day 49 - Clearly she's starting to get to the end of the life-cycle. The nutrient reserves are being used up in the leaves, although I also suspect a bit of nutrient lockout as well. Today only gave PH'ed water. After taking another look at the trichomes today, I'm starting to wonder if she really is ready for harvest yet or not 😅 I guess I'll take another video in a few days and see how they look then. The pistils are curling in though now, so that's one sign that harvest is getting closer. Day 53 - Watered again today; she was a little droopy 😳 PH was about 6.05 And took another video of the trichomes...a good one this time. And what do you know...plenty of the trichomes still look clear AF, although I do notice some amber ones. Going to wait until at least next week for sure now to harvest.

Venga familia que ya viene la cosecha de estas Pink Runtz de RoyalQueenSeeds , que ganas que tenia ya de darles machetazo. No veas que pinta que tienen estas plantas. Las flores aparte se ven bien resinosas, y con unos tonos muy llamativos. a sido una genética con la que disfruté mucho cultivarla, es algo complicada cultivarla pero merece la pena si eres cultivador con experiencia no te será problema cosechar. Hasta aquí es todo , espero que lo disfrutéis, buenos humos 💨💨.

Welcome growers End of week n°3 in bloom for this nice CREAM CARAMEL 🍬🍭🍫 She's the best in the garden, no doubt 🙌 Great aroma...nice bud development..fast and compact 💯 And like all the other ladyes, like you have see in the video, yesterday i defoliated hard ✂️🍃🍃🍃 Usually i don't use this type of "aggressive technique" I always defoliated a little, but never in this way... This time I decided to practice it on all the plants I have in the garden (10 visible in the diaries + 8 regular all female) out of pure curiosity to see how each of them will react We seeing what happens.. Anyway After that I immediately start a more massive fertilization.. Next week we will see how they will be 😉 About nutrients 👇 I still giving their always organic/veganic nutrients.. A little bit of silicium (Bionova) / Crescita (Biomagno) / Activera (Biobizz) / Grow vegan (Bionova) / The Missing Link (Bionova) / X-Cell (Bionova) / Bioheaven (Biobizz) , a little bit of P-K 3-5 (Bionova) /Fioritura (Biomagno) / Bloom vegan (Bionova) and now i have introduced Biomassa (Biomagno) and Florastimo (Biomagno) Basically these nutrients contain primarily NPK in organic / vegan form + kelp extracts, humic and fulvic acids, amino acids, aloe vera, potassium silicate, beneficial bacteria and fungi Like i usually do, a little bit of everything at any watering 💧 And that's all.. See you in week n°4 of flowering 🌻 Thanks for watching 😎👍👍 FC ✌️ 🇮🇹

Plants started growing very fast. 20 hours light a day and 140 ml water for 2 plants so 35 ml each plant. (70ml -35ml one plant- morning, and 70ml -35ml one plant evening). From Monday I will start giving 200ml water 100ml in the morning and then the rest in the evening. Ventilation almost 24 hours, They are getting bushy and the color looks healthy green. I am excited. Purple Punch ( the right one) does not have the smell but the Gelato Cookie D'ohpe started smelling from the 3rd week, it is not strong, it is smooth, enjoyable. I still use trigger spray but I stopped triggering directly on the plant to avoid any fungee or toxicity, I just keep the soil moist. I surrounded them with kitchen foil around the lamp to have a more effective light. It reflects the light and the light goes everywhere. This step has been done because I have only the 60w LED each plant so I try to provide the maximum strength this way, and by keeping close distance also. The lamp is not hot so it ain't gonna burn the plant I had checked it before. I just purchased today a 600w LED because these plants look so good so I wanna provide the best circumstances for them. 4th-week 4th day I a just waiting for my delivery my 600 W grow LED light will come. From today I started watering with 50ml each plant 2 times a day so all together 200ml a day. Plus I always use trigger spray for the soil to be kept wet. They are looking better and better. Nice color and bushy appearance. Wonderful. I realized some holes on the Gelato Cookie D'ohpe's leaf but there is no insect I was checking. I do not really know the reason for that. Tonight I will set up the new 600 W LED so I am changing the current 120W. Big Step forward! It is not that easy that I thought, the lamp is great but the temperature raised up a lot, so needed to buy a fan also and the humidity went down. It is not easy to find the proper solution to be acceptable, good temperature and humidity at the same time. So I decided to program a 6/2 schedule, so 6 hours light on and the fan always with 15 min more, and 2 hours off so I do provide 18 hours light and 6 hours darkness but it is divided. The plants can rest after every six hours and use the energy they received. Last day of the 4th week, LST has been done with the Gelato Cookie D'ohpe, both are growing rapidly, let's see what the 5th week brings! End of he week Gelato Cookie D'ohpe is 25cm, Purple Punch is 20cm😇

There is definitely some deficiencies present. I had planned on doing a flip to flower however this will put me off for another week or two while I correct any nutritional problem. Other than that they look good, very bushy. What do you guys think? Am I going to have a good 1212?

AVT still flowering, still going strong. Definitely has more of a Bonsai shape, which is unique and obviously due to the excessive HST I did early on. Very curious how she finishes up, but I'm guessing still about a month to go til she's ready.
