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.

Hello growers and tokers! 👋 👩‍🌾 🧑‍🌾.🔥💨 This strain is a monster!! Grows so fast, it's amazing! Topped and trained her first day of the week, a few days later she was already growing vigorously!! 💪 🚀 Also cleared up some bottom growth that wasn't going to reach up evenly.. after topping she keeps growing upwards and fast so I might have to tie down those top colas or maybe even top them, haven't decided yet.. All I know is she's going to be HUGE for this tiny balcony. 😍 😁 I'm not sure how much direct light the balcony will be receiving when she starts to flower.. I'm going to wait a couple of weeks and after seeing how she grows I might cut off some more bottom growth or not, let's see. This week heat went up and humidity down like crazy. Upped to 2.5L every other day.. Stay tuned for more updates and if you like what you see then check out the other diaries. 😃 Happy Growing!😃🌱🌿🌲

High GD community, Week 6, Wonder pie doing fine. She keeps her tempo steady, not really fast, but she keeps developing. Some of the side branches starting to take form and first lining is a fact. Ive removed 9 leafs, so te center gets more open for the small branches trying to come up. I think i should cut the internodes that are up and down, but i only cutted the one underneath. If anyone is convinced its better to get rid of the upperone 2, please comment. I do thinl it might cause problems in a few weeks, bcs it will grow up instead of out to the sides, so, hormone regulation will change, slow down the outgrowing buds and extra pump up these internodes. Enough rambling about that, lets talk about the plant intirely, bit by bit she starts to look like something i have in mind. 💦👨‍🔬 Just spraying ph 6.2water and 1 feeding this week. 3 waterings this week, 1 with nuts. Thats it for this week boys👨‍🌾 and girls👩‍🌾, Grow safe buds and feel free to check out my other ladies doing fine, 🌿🌿🌿 🙏🌿🌿🌿🙏

So Ill start by talking about her smell. Maria has been super super low key in that so far my room has not stank of weed super badly. My room was fresh and had a herby comforting lining, but no blue-cheese-skunk-on-the-loose type scenario. But when you frisked up Maria, a persons nostrils might describe it something like ...walking through a mystical forrest eating your favourite candy, after you've just blessed a fat one with Bob Marley.. its a feeling not a smell. But if you were to describe it, its like a summer fucking cocktail' bish. She has also started to show some red hairs, Id say about 1/3 of her hair is ginger at this point. I think a point to note is that she has been drinking a lot more water (About 3l water every 3 days) as she's bulked up and started to shine. Im super happy with the grow so far; Ive made mistakes, and not all circumstances have been ideal. BUT, its been such a rewarding experience so far and I'm also glad I got to start with fucking dank genetics from Dinafem. You guys are fuckin' super stars. Ive been supplementing her with some LOVE. I can not get over how beautiful it is?! Cannabis is just so mystical? Being my first grow I'd still never got to see a late flowering cannabis plant in my life! I grew up in Dubai where Cannabis is hecticly-illegal, and lived in cities thereafter most my life. Maria is like a child who I will later kill in her sleep before she wakes up and hang upside down in my cupboard to dry out. But I truly love this plant.

Buenas a todo compañer@s,otra semana más de cultivo. Amnesia haze Hoy día 3 Finalizamos la semana 5 de floración. Cambiamos a la semana 6 Aumento de la EC hasta los máximos valores que acepte la variedad,proabado este fenotipo de amnesia haze en varios cultivos con una EC2600 en sustratos. Una semana bastante jodida de agua,muchas lluvias,con lo que conlleva alta humedad en el exterior y con ello más alta en el cultivo. Pero seguimos luchando! Vídeo subido en la madrugada . Dia 5 Todo bien ,exceptuando una de las niñas que parece tener alguna deficiencia,magnesio pensé en primera estancia,pero otros compañeros me dijeron que podría ser que el magnesio bloqueó el potasio en unos riegos atrás. Le reduciré el magnesio,y le seguiré dando la misma dosis de potasio que le doy a todas las demás.. El riego es por goteo y no queda otra, a esa pequeña le añado lo que pida de más con una pequeña pistola de agua por debajo. Va afinando el cultivo con respecto a los olores. Día 6 Al fin,puedo volver a decir ,tengo todo bajo control!! Al menos por ahora.. Correji,el problema de potasio de la planta con la deoficiencia que no sé cómo llegó a ese punto,tan pronunciado.. hoy quedó la cama regada con una buena cantidad de abono EC2200 En una cantidad de tanque de agua de 44 litros Un ph6,2 controlado como en todo el ciclo de floración. Dia 7 Hoy abrí el armario,30segundos en la tarde mientras estaba la noche dentro con las niñas, 12grados era la temperatura dentro de el. Hoy realmente fue una tarde fría ,aquí.mañana vuelve a ser un día normal ,así que volveremos a tener los 16/17 que tenemos por lo normal. Buen pronóstico,e podido ver en los noticiarios,hahahah dejando temperaturas aparte. Regamos ayer, con una buena cantidad de azucares aminoácidos y enzimas,además de su riego base y calmag boost. Realmente hoy me quedan 10 días,en los que tengo que terminar de potenciar la planta con los abonos. Ya que en aproximadamente 20 días se finalizará este cultivo. No busco una cantidad oxidada de tricomas ,busco una buena patada de estimulación activa. En unas semanas abriré un nuevo pequeño espacio de cultivo con una cama de cultivo de suelo vivo. En un interior. Por lo demás,pediréis ver alguna deficiencia en una planta,y algo de estrés en otras más debido a El salto de temperatura de hoy. Decir que algunas sufrieron un poco de sobrefertilizacion. -ESO QUE PARECE UN🛰️, es la sonda de temperatura y humedad! Y ya de paso. aprovechamos la 💡 que pueda rebotar. Día 8 Parece que ahora piden mucha agua,van a sufrir un poco de estrés con respecto a eso. Mañana le meteré otro riego con un buen EC y la próxima semana acabaremos con los abonos. Están engordando muy bien,un olor a amnesia increíble con el toque lima y fresco de las haze. En este fenotipo la dominancia es más de la amnesia. El olor ,me está indicando que voy a tener un producto de gran calidad. Muy muy dulce,limón,madera cortada y toques a pimienta. Seguira definiendo más aún en la maduración y el desarrollo de resina empieza a manchar bien la hojas. Grandes extracciones de jardala nos esperan!

~ WEDDING CHEESECAKE FAST FLOWER by FastBuds ~ Well fam, here we go again with another epic strain from FastBuds Fast Flowering stable. After having such tremendous success growing their Gorilla Cookies Fast Flower outdoors last year, I've decided to run another of their fast flowering strains outdoors this year... Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower! The best description of this awesome cultivar comes directly from my friends at FastBuds which is as follows: "A delight for the mind and body: Wedding Cheesecake FF (Fast-Flowering) is a delicious strain that offers XXL yields in a 7-8 weeks flowering cycle. This terpene powerhouse produces loads and loads of mouth-watering vanilla-creamy-cookie-scented terps with hints of citrus and cinnamon. In addition to its delicious aromas, this variety grows very well in both indoor and outdoor setups, yielding up to 650 g/m2 without extra maintenance, making it the ideal strain for beginners as it allows you to maximize yields while minimizing work. This super-fast feminized photoperiod version offers upbeat and energetic yet deeply relaxing effects that are perfect for consumers looking for a heavily focused, motivating, and creative high. It’s the ideal strain for those needing that extra energy boost to start a busy day on the right foot. Wedding Cheesecake FF boasts chunky, large-sized buds with a thick layer of silvery-white resin and bright orange hairs scattered all over: that just screams ‘quality’. The lime-green flowers sparkle with an array of hues ranging from dark to light green, to magenta and purple, and reek of a delicious aroma that’ll remind you of fresh store-bought cheesecake. This is an XXL hybrid that grows extremely tall in height, reaching up to 3m with one huge main cola and multiple long side branches that can withstand enormous yields of up to 650 g/m2 with ease. Wedding Cheesecake FF is extremely resilient to the elements and can be grown in almost every climate as long as you’ve got the space and basics covered, making her an excellent choice for those looking for large-scale harvests with a quick turnaround time without much effort." ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: This is going to be an outdoor grow, but I have started the Wedding Cheesecake FF indoors as our weather is still too cold to put her outside (nighttime temp's dipping regularly into the 30's℉). The plan is simple... let her grow inside under a 19/5 light schedule until the nighttime temperatures stay above the mid 40's℉, at which point she'll be moved outside and transplanted into the soil which I have already setup and inoculated with beneficial microbes, and then let the fun begin!🤪💚 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 7/4- 🎉HAPPY 4th of JULY!🎉 Week Fourteen of veg and things have really heated up here! Our weather is continuing with exceptionally HOT days having heat indexes over 100℉ so I've maintained my regime of watering the Wedding Cheesecake FF every day with 5-8g of straight well water from the garden hose in the late afternoon once the plant is in the shade. The FastBuds Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower has taken the heat like a champ and is transforming into a very LARGE and bushy lady! She's at over 5 1/2 feet tall now and is still stretching! She has maintained excellent vigor, color and has shown great resistance to pests and other stressors! 7/6- Yesterday we had a thunderstorm pass through early in the day, which provided about an inch of rain in a short time. I went ahead and watered in the afternoon, but only gave the Wedding Cheesecake FF approx. 3g of water from the well. 7/8- The daily watering continues, as does our blistering hot🔥weather. All is well with the FastBuds Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower and today, after watering, I got under the trellis net and removed a bunch of shade leaves that were growing straight down through the net... bye bye! 7/10- Well the weather and the Wedding Cheesecake FF are both on fire! Hopefully the weather will cool down soon, and the Wedding Cheesecake FF will continue to explode!🤩 There's another week of veg for this beauty and I can't wait for the flowering to begin! Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏

What up family, weekly update on these girls. I raised the lights 6in this week to allow some stretch but still keeping 400-600ppfd at the canopy level. Over all they're progressing beautifully. I started adding 2.5ml/gal of Athenas Blended line Grow A & B. Haven't seen any burnt leaf tips from the nutes so I think they'll be OK adding a little boost. I am seeing some from the water I spilled on the leafs. Lol. All in all Happy Growing.

Okay sooooo big big sighhhh! I’ve been dreading making this post so I’m sorry I’m behind 2 weeks. I had to go outta town for 8 days. I had everything set up for my brother to take care of the plants. It was a really hot week the week I was gone and these plants were taking a beating and started to get burnt from the heat! One plant died and I’m super sad about it. But we living and learning out here! I have tried to trim the dead leaves without taking too many fan leaves off so I don’t shock em more. All last week was surviving giving the plants a little over a gallon of water a day! Doing some of the nutrients every day but not all. I like to run water in Between the nutrients. But with coco coir I’m not too sure if it’s needed. “Learning over here” so ya thankfully it’s been cooling down and I’ve learned some new tricks to cool the tent off! I got a air water cooler that’s blowing cold air into the tent and my 6” duct sucking out hot air. Things are looking better! One more week with nutritions then a week of flush and Harvest is what I’m thinking. Any suggestions thoughts or ideas for me! I’d appreciate it!

I cut down plant #2 last week, dried the bud and put it in jars for curing. Plant #1 still has a ways to go. It's starting to smell better (before there wasn't much of a smell), I haven't spotted any amber trichomes and the pistils are still mostly white and stretching. I'm only feeding it plain, tap water and will see what happens. I'll keep you posted!

Plants are doing good but humidity could be higher sometimes. I am spraying the Clones with water to keep them hydrated as long as they dont have strong roots. Clones experienced slight sunburn but nothing bad.

Hi meine lieben, 🤗 Die 2. Woche der Wachstums-Phase steht an... ...und die realität schlägt zu. Hatte versucht diesen Run mit einem höheren VPD-Wert und dadurch ohne zusätzliches CalMag hinzufügen zumüssen, laufen zulassen. Da laut einer Studie, man durch einen erhöhten VPD, kein zusätzliches CalMag unter LED's hinzugefügt werden müsste. Allerdings gieße ich noch mit Leitungswasser. Also hatte ich mir mal die werte meiner Stadtwerke angeschaut. Und in meinem Wasser habe ich Calcium = 78 mg/l und Magnesium = 5,3 mg/l und somit ein verhältnis von 14:1😰. Was von einer Optimalen versorgung von 2:1 - 4:1 CalMag etwas entfernt ist... 😅 Beste Lösung wäre ein Filtersystem wie der Watertrim zu nutzen. Günstiger ist es Mono-Magnesium (oder bei bedarf Mono-Calcium) zu besorgen und das Wasser im richtigen Verhältnis auszugleichen. _________________________________________________________ Optimale CalMag-Versorgung in den einzelnen Phasen: Sämling: Cal: 50-60 mg/l Mag: 20-30 mg/l Wachstum: Cal: 80-100 mg/l Mag: 30-50mg/l Blüte: Cal: 100-120 mg/l Mag: 40-60mg/l ______________________________________________________________ Wie mein Ablauf in dieser Woche genau aussah, habe ich auch diesmal für uns Dokumentiert. Ich wünsche dir viel Spaß & Happy Growing 🌱🤗: _______________________________________________________________ Umgebungswerte der Woche: - Temperatur: 25°C - Luftfeuchtigkeit: 65% - VDP (Room): 1,1 _______________________________________________________________ Tag 8: - Nur beobachtet 😋 Tag 9: - Pflanzenhöhe gemessen: 17 cm 🌱 - Stamm-Durchmesser gemessen: 0,57cm = 57mm Ø - Licht Intensität eingestellt - PPFD: 320µmol / DLI: 21 Mol Tag 10: Bewässert 👇 (Leitungswasser): - Volumen: 1000ml - PH-Wert: 6,15 - EC-Wert: 0,46 - Temperatur: 20°C Run-Off (Drain) gemessen 👇: - PH-Wert: 7,0 - EC-Wert: 3,7 - Temperatur: 21°C - Volumen: 150ml Tag 11: - Nur beobachtet 😋 Tag 12: Bewässert 👇 (Leitungswasser): - Volumen: 1200ml - PH-Wert: 6,1 - EC-Wert: 1,52 - Temperatur: 20°C Run-Off (Drain) gemessen 👇: - PH-Wert: 6,7 - EC-Wert: 3,24 - Temperatur: 22°C - Volumen: 265ml Pflanzen Training: Topping, Vor-Lollipopping Lampenabstand eingestellt: 50cm Licht Intensität eingestellt - PAR - PPFD: 285µmol / DLI: 18,5 Mol Pflanzenhöhe gemessen: 18cm 🌱 Tag 13: - Nur beobachtet 😋 Tag 14: Bewässert 👇 (Leitungswasser): - Volumen: 1200ml - PH-Wert: 6,1 - EC-Wert: 0,48 - Temperatur: 21°C Run-Off (Drain) gemessen 👇: - PH-Wert: 6,42 - EC-Wert: 2,6 - Temperatur: 21°C - Volumen: 360ml Pflanzenhöhe gemessen: 22 cm 🌱 Stamm-Durchmesser gemessen: 0,73cm = 73mm Ø Lampenabstand eingestellt: 45 cm Licht Intensität eingestellt - PPFD: 320µmol / DLI: 20,8 Mol

Also der schrecken nimmt kein Ende und die Pflanze hat jetzt absolut keinen Platz mehr in dem Grow Koffer. Es ist wirklich aktuell ein Horror, aus dem ich viele Learnings mitnehmen werde.

Started training the plant. Trying to spread out the branches so they all are level and evenly getting light. Going to need to do some defoliation in the next week. Really happy with how this is turning out. Growing well and looking very healthy. Green in the leaves has darkened well too after giving the tea to fix the N deficiency.

Beautiful friday everyone! 😇 I bought a stronger light a few days ago, the VIPARSPECTRA P4000 with 400W, matching perfect to my tent. And goddammit look at these beauties. 😍 They are slightly turning purple on the sugar leaves and the buds are like ROCKS 😝 The smell is INSANE!!! This sh*t is hyping ME a LOT 😵 I cannot wait to smoke and make extractions out of it. Cheers
