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.

FBT 2309 grew great. Really nice aroma of a sweet, herbal, earthy, cream smell. Loaded with trichromes, and a nice purple hue to buds. Growing with the Gen1:11 nutrition was a bit tougher in dwc. I am getting the hang of it. Beside some minor ph issues and feeds being too strong the plant did great. The Medic Grow Mini Sun-2 also worked great for the grow. I am eager to try it once it is out of the cannatrol. Thank you Fast Buds, Gen1:11, and Medic Grow. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Happy new year.

Hi all,
Grow area updates:
So I hit the switch and flipped the light to 12/12 to start week 1 of flower for the master kush. And also raised the scrog net and defoliate a bunch.
Blue dream auto: Week 4 flower
God her first real good defoliation and and a lollipop on the under the canopy. As you can from the pics. The bud sites are plenty. Plant def got biggger then what I thought it had to be tucked one more good time under the net ended up taking up space where another plant woulda be. Literally had to leave a couple branches still standing do to nowhere for them to go and I’m almost definite they will need assistance standing here in a bit. She literally takes have the flower area by herself. I’m stoked about that. The last pic from the web cam shows about how much I took from each branch For defoliation. Ppm at 900
Master kush photo: 1st week of flower
She got pretty y’all over the past week the extra nitrogen grow really helped her have a Maher growth spirt. It got a lil hot this week so some minor leaf curling but nothing major. The new growth coming in looks perfectly fine. She responded well to the femming. So I went ahead and topped all the tops on her and she might get one more at the end of this week. She also got re-tucked under the net.
Ppm at about 750.
As always #StayKited!

Hello Diary.
The second week of flowering is over, so let’s see what it looked like last week.
Watermelon Auto reached 61 cm, meaning it began to stagnate in growth. It is nicely branched and wide, it is full of leaves so I will need to do a little cleaning soon.
I have yellow-brown spots on the lower leaves and the leaves are totally decaying, since I give her nutrients like her roommates Purple Punch, I’m not sure what the cause is. It could be over feeding, but also a lack of some element.
All in all, the “Farm” is now a real jungle, along with Watermelon, there are also her two roommates, Purple Punch, so each of them is fighting for as much light as possible.
The humidity in the Box is still lower than I would like, the temperature is good.
Let's see what the week looked like:
24/02/2021 - Day 29.
Watering. I regulated, that is, lowered the p.H. at 6.4 and put 1 Easy Bloom Tablet, on 7 liters of water.
Temp / Humidity on the farm - 24.8 degrees and 42% humidity.
27/02/2021 - Day 32.
Watering. I adjusted the p.H to 6.4 and added BioBizz as scheduled for the second week of flowering.
Temp / Humidity on the farm - 24.9 degrees and 35% humidity.
02/03/2021 - Day 35.
Watering and height measurement. This time I did not add any nutrients but only regulated p.H at 6.3.
Height Watermelon Auto - 61 cm.
Temp / Humidity on the farm - 25.2 degrees and 39% humidity.
That’s it for this week, thanks to everyone who follows the diary, the support and advice I get means a lot to me. See you soon.

Gracias al equipo de Kannabia Seed y XpertNutrients, sin ellos esta magia no seria posible.
🍁💐 Runtz (Auto):
Si esta cepa se ha ganado su popularidad a pulso, esta versión autofloreciente es digna heredera de sus atributos. No es de extrañar que nuestros criadores hayan acertado con su programa de reproducción, al combinar dos de las cepas más fascinantes de la actualidad: Zkittlez y Gelato.
planta resistente y robusta, de cuerpo esbelto y fuerte ramificación lateral, que se puede cultivar prácticamente en cualquier entorno; pero prefiere los veranos largos y cálidos, tal y como quiere la madre naturaleza, donde bañada por el sol se eleva hasta los 120 cm. para producir unos rendimientos muy gratificantes de 100-150 gramos por planta.
En interior, y tras solo 70 días desde la semilla, también recompensará con cosechas abundantes de hasta 500 gr./m²
Inmediatamente después de encontrarte con ella, lo primero que notarás es su aroma descaradamente afrutado, con un toque tropical cortado con reminiscencias terrosas y amaderadas, que se entremezclan de forma agradable para ofrecer un combo que hace salivar las papilas gustativas.
Ofrece un sabor confitado, refrescante y similar a sumergirse en una piscina de frutas cítricas y flores de fragancia intensa. Al inhalar, obtienes la bondad de la dulzura; al exhalar, el humo se convierte en suave y cremoso, dejando suficiente profundidad en cada bocanada para satisfacer a aquellos que buscan los matices más complejos.

📆 Semana 4:
*Las fotos se hacen 1 dia antes para poder cuadrar diarios de guerrilla.
Buena semana en la cual se ha trasladado a su lugar definitivo y se ha puesto directamente en tierra fértil ♥️🚀, espero que esta tirada sea de provecho, pero parece que se va hacer hermosa .
Aplicación de nutrientes 1/3 segun la dosis recomendada por el fabricante.

I cleaned out the reservoir and switched from Veg to Bloom nutrients on day 36. My 35% Hydrogen Peroxide arrived, and that definitely makes a difference with keeping the reservoir cleaner longer, although I am still cleaning it maybe every 10 days or so, just a quick 2 min scrub with bleach/water, and then i run it through the pump and lines as well, then run plain water through it before hooking it all back up. The ONLY water I have used from my well this grow has been to clean my reservoir, everything else has come from my dehumidifer. I am now using some Cal Mag, Maxi Bloom, AND some Liquid Kool Bloom. I am running an EC of about 1450. My runoff from Coco is coming in around 1490 EC. Not seeing any issues with the ladies, just worried I may have waited a little too long to switch from Veg to Bloom Nutes, although I was adding about 25% Bloom for the past week or so. I guess we will see here soon if she gets some bigger flowers. Thanks for checking me out, and Blaze On!

So far so good with this watermelon zkittles from barneys 😁 no issues and responding well to the topping and lst, I am making 3 litres worth of food for the week and will up it as the plant needs it.
I will post more pics and a video later of the room.
The purple lemonade and runtz are doing well, they look lost in there big pots 🤣. Pics to come.
The orange sherbert are on day 3 of there 2 week flush with molasses and phed water, hopefully there fill out, on the plus side there getting purple on them now 😀.
Marshydro tsl2000 is doing a amazing job and is really nice and cool, my hps light use to cook the plants this led is perfect can achieve good temps even cold temps to pull the colour out at the end 😀.
The ac infinity with digital controller is a must have and a real game changer for a grower, I love it my mate loves his and trust me it helps, easy to use and set it up outside your grow area, dangle the thermometer cable at canopy hight and your good to go.
Day 29 day 2 flower, the watermelon zkittles is starting to start her stretch I think she is going to be a nice plant, iv had no issues in the last 4 weeks and never have with the barneys seed selection.

❤️💡🌱😽💨
Everyone was up-potted 2 days ago and showing a little new growth since then. They're all very healthy looking, one has some slight yellowing which should disappear soon with our change but all plants are extremely small for their size.. we've been letting these dry out completely between watering so I'm convinced there's a genetic component to this. We've had a few other strains start extra slow for us in the past and one in particular that started slow and then took off like wildfire around week 5 so I'm not too concerned ..they're each using 3gal square (plastic) pots willed with fresh Promix-HP..they're getting a little bit of Big Bloom with smaller amounts of Grow Big with every other watering now and this has corrected the odd hue we noticed around wk3.. The Mars SP-3000 is about 2.5 away, it sounds far but despite the distance, node spacing is always really tight in that tent all through veg
We're hoping for some explosive growth this week now that everyone is officially settled, we're still on the fence as to how we'll train these but odds are we'll do our typical 4 way LST after topping and keep under their skirts bare..
..there no telling how long we'll veg these as size is always our determining factor but when the time comes, we plan to flower in this tent as well.. not too much else to report, its been an effortless week.. thanks as always for dropping by and happy harvests everyone!!
👊😺

8/17
We've gotten some fast growth in the last few days.. we figured they were just late to the party.. we topped all plants at the 3rd node yesterday and we'll eventually pull each plant 4 ways..apparently the "weird hue" is genetic, they all have a unique purple undertones..neat strain for sure.. we dropped the SP-3000 a few inches and they're praying to it almost around the clock..we're debating on building a 4x2 PVC scrog table for these girls if we find the time.. thanks for dropping by Growmies! Much love!❤️

Welcome to week 8, their last week before harvest
With extra low humidity around 35-45RH and lower night temps (around 20 degrees), i plan on harvesting later this week.
There are some signs of amber on the trichomes, but they are still mostly milky.
👽👉 28/11 Keeping the humidity and temp as steady as possible for the last period.
👽👉 29/11 Planning to harvest later this week, when the ladies get thirsty.
👽👉 30/11 I plan on harvesting tomorrow or 2/12
They smell AMAZING, with a twist that is hard to describe! Very fruity and sweet in smell
I have been having the humidity very very low the last couple of days, and it have payed off. They are completely covered in trichomes, its hard to even capture on camera.
The ladies are very heavy set, i am glad i installed the second safety SCROG net.
👽👉 1/12 HARVEST DAY
The buds are so heavy, dense and the aroma and fruits notes are out of this world!
Converted the tent to drying tent.
Only one fan (Top mounted, pointing downwards away from the crop, and towards the corner)
Temperature 18-20 Degrees
Humidity 48-54% RH

hey guys, week 12!
all is going smoothly just giving her water and reducing gradually the ec.
She's gaining some weight and the bud are very well structured even if they are not as big as they could because of the week lost to recover.
do you guys think it will be ready by the royal queen seeds instructions or because the week stunted do I need to wait a week more?
thanks all guys, keep Growing 👍

We have reached the end of a wonderful journey...that of MY FIRST HYDROPONIC GROWING!!! I have obtained fantastic results from everything that accompanied me on this wonderful journey! starting from the bucket and the pump to finish with a wonderful AUTOFLOWERING genetics, each single component has played a fundamental role in the game, managing to give me extraordinary results....(let's hope it wasn't beginner's luck : )😁😁😁
on this special day, I send a greeting to all the people who unfortunately are no longer among us, but always live in our hearts!😇

Day 17
17/07/24 Wednesday
De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 with calmag 5ml -5L.
Very humid week, noticed a green turning colour on top of soils where the humidity has been far to high.
I have installed door netting and recently left open all day and night now so they can condition over night in colder temps.
All are doing well, one overdose slightly behind and looking ABIT swifted. But she'll come around 💪💚
Day 19
19/07/24 Friday
Lite Feed today, 250ml each pot small run off.
Seeing excellent start to these babies. Let's get it 👌💚
Day 21
21/07/24 Sunday
De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 with calmag 5ml to 5L.
Watering in 1L each day from now.
