I had to defoliate major part of the leaves, due to week lights that I have. She wasn't getting light at the bottom down. Hope she recover

This is one of the strains that is doing very well in both the technical/free versions, we are talking about the Fruit Punch Automatic by Zamnesia. Remember that we are growing a plant worked with the techniques indicated and another left to grow without pruning to preserve its speed; in the previous/next diary you will find the other plant of the same variety. In this diary we find a plant left to grow straight with a good bit of cleaning at the bottom but essentially left to go. We can see that it is probably the fastest of all in terms of flowering, train because at a certain point you have to start the Green Sensation, not before or after the magical moment of swelling of the flower. Every booster in general except Comparison is the salt of the experience, so the plant in the other diary will be treated very differently, go and see it to make a comparison. We started the Plagron fertilization program, we are in 100% organic configuration, the soil is made up of recycled Promix + 1/3 fresh soil + 10% Perlite + RQS Mycorrhizae Mix (4 g in the mix, 1 g under the small fiber pot). In the middle of the week the pre-flowering started so I decided to start the program for this phase: 1 ml/l of Power Roots - 1 ml/l of Pure Zym - 1 ml/l of Sugar Royal - 1 ml/l of Power Buds - 3 ml/l of Alga Bloom Remember the Green Sensation from the 3rd/4th week of flowering depending on the flowering speed or how you see the calyxes composing, when the calyx is in the swelling phase it is used. We sprayed 5 ml/l of Vita Race foliar fertilizer once a week. ------------------------------------------------- https://plagron.com/it We always have the excellent RQS mycorrhizae running through the soil. https://www.zamnesia.io/it/5778-mix-micorrhiza-easy-roots.html One of the best in recent years with a very high THC level -------------------------------------------------------- https://www.zamnesia.io/en/10965-zamnesia-seeds-fruit-punch-automatic.html Brief description of Zamnesia // Sativa strains are very rewarding to grow, but their long flowering times and their greater susceptibility to disease and overfertilization can make them a little more difficult to manage. Also, their imposing heights are less suitable for indoor use and can attract unwanted attention if grown outdoors. However, with the arrival of Fruit Punch Automatic, growing sativa strains at home just got a whole lot easier. Combining Skunk #1, Haze and ruderalis, Fruit Punch Auto is 70% sativa dominant and produces up to 21% THC, along with a delicious blend of terpenes. Plus, it can be grown indoors, outdoors and in greenhouses. With their bright green hues, golden pistils and thick layer of resin, Fruit Punch Auto buds always have a great appeal. When you smoke her, you will be amazed by her flavours, aromas and effects! As the name suggests, Fruit Punch Automatic boasts delicious tropical aromas reminiscent of banana, pineapple, mango and citrus. When you open the jars you will feel like you are in a tropical cocktail bar on an exotic beach. Fruit Punch Auto will delight your palate with pungent fruity notes followed by light notes of Skunk and spice on the exhale. Within minutes of your first hit, this potent sativa will stimulate your mind, leaving you in an energetic and carefree state, ideal for morning or daytime sessions, as well as social settings or creative pursuits. The whole world of growing and much more is on Zamnesia: just take a look at the site and you will find "all the best that nature has to offer" in various shapes and colors. --------------- www.zamnesia.com

During this first week of vegetative growth, the seedling has slightly stretched more than expected, but this is not a problem since when I transfer it into the larger pot, I will bury the stem. 🌱 I haven't started giving nutrients yet because, as already mentioned, the substrate I use has them for the first few weeks, in fact the leaves seem to me to be a nice bright green. ✔️ I proceeded to mount a small fan on the side of the tent to create recirculation of air and make the stems of the seedlings take some strength. 💨 For now the main tent is occupied by the flowering phase of other plants so for the first few weeks I will leave the seedlings in the closet with smallest led light. 💡 (link below) ⬇️⬇️⬇️ https://www.amazon.it/gp/product/B08P2G1VQW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s02?ie=UTF8&th=1

No issues with this plant, awesome buds with awesome scent and flavor! Super easy to manage during growth. I'd definitely recommend this strain.

Uno de los mejores cultivos que he tenido

Starting week 7

Alright, after last week's round of topping, she'll be at 40-60 tops! Monster of a plant! Never let a girl veg this long, so I'm really excited to see her in flower. Not too far off now! As soon as I see roots on the clones I've pulled, she's going right in! Cheers fellow growers 😎😄

Eccoci ragazzi ad un nuovo aggiornamento! Sempre un poco in ritardo, ma cmq io faccio foto quasi ogni giorno quindi vedrete come si è svilluppata molto bene in questa settimana e mezza! Le cime stanno iniziando ad odorare proprio di erba con un sentore speziato di pino e terra proprio molto simile alla CBD che sto fumando in questo periodo! Mi aspetto quindi di avere un sacco di ottima erba con tanto CBD che sia erba medica light al 100%! Come potete vedere con i vostri occhi questa volta i nutrienti di Terra Aquatica stanno facendo un lavoro ottimo! Nn c'è sintomi di alcuna carenza e c'è una quantità di resina davvero impressionante che aumenta di giorno in giorno! Sono davvero orgoglioso di fare parte della loro famiglia e spero di continuare a collaborare con loro per. Prossimo futuro! Ormai ho fatto un po di cicli solo utilizzando loro ed xpert nutrients, quindi nn capisco come mai sulla mia pagina esca che io abbia utilizzato di più Advanced nutrients che in realtà li ho usati solo per un unico ciclo, nn capisco xke la mia pagina nn si aggiorna, è poi anche il problema del bottone dei "like" sembra nn esistere più, e ho dovuto rimettere il "follow" a molti grower xke nn so per quale motivo GD ha deciso di toglierli.. C'è qualcosa che nn funziona più in questo social e spero che tutti questi problemi in un prossimo futuro trovino una soluzione! Perché davvero questa è la community che mi ha cambiato la vita e mi ha dato la possibilità di esprimere al meglio la mia passione, quindi io rimarrò qua a mettere su il più possibile tutte le foto delle mie ragazze a più nn posso! Anche se nel mio paese è illegale, spero che nei prossimi anni le cose cambino! Vi ringrazio a tutti voi che vi fermate a vedere le mie ragazze e un buon 420 a tutti voi ci vediamo tra una settimana! 💪😸🌱🌿🧑‍🌾🍀😽💨🔥🔥🔥🇵🇸

Закончилось долгое увлекательное путешествие, мне даже немного грустно. В этот цикл я впервые попробовал технику мэйн-лайниг, надеюсь моя работа вам понравилась, я старался чтоб куст получился красивым. Хочу сказать спасибо сервису GrowDiaries - это уникальная база данных по выращиванию от тысяч гроверов со всего земного шара. Я, в свою очередь, в этом дневнике стрался очень подробно описывать и фотографировать все свои действия, возможно мой опыт также кому-то будет полезен. Отдельное спасибо всем, кто посетил и комметнировал мой дневник - вместе мы совершенствуем наше мастерство. 👉Забавный интересный факт👈 На приготовление компота для полива за весь цикл выращивания было использовано 241 литров воды 😉 Спасибо, что были на связи, и будьте здоровы! 🙏

Day 106 14/10/24 Monday Her colours are really coming through now 🤩 Nearing her end now, possibly another week after this ✌️💚 Picture and video update 📸💚 Day 108 16/10/24 Wednesday Light watering, she isn't drinking anything, trichomes only just starting to turn amber. I'll leave her now till I chop Day 109 17/10/24 Thursday She is starting to dry from 1" now. Putting her in 24hrs dark 🌑 now. Will harvest Tomorrow

Chopped on day 84. 2.96 Oz of flower after 7 day drying. Will update review post cure and smoke report. Smells like grapes so the name suits in perfectly

Both plants have almost stopped growing in heigth now and are in full flowering mode now. Barbarian (=AK-47 x Barbara Bud) Plant #1 is 15 cm shorter than plant #2, but a little bushier. Both have grown very well and are strong and healthy. They get more and more flower clusters now and start to fill up all branches. Trichomes start to appear all over...the plants start to get sticky and develop a weak sweet aroma now. Its time to take off the biggest fan leaves now for defoliation, I took a round of pics before and after.

1 plant looks a bit ugly but she had some issues with the seed, the leaves got stuck and the seed wasn't removed correctly, i needed to help the the plant to remove it, the other plant is doing great, not much more to add for the send week!

Couple of pics of the buds before i cut her down added and a little video, will come back and update weights and strain reviews once dried and cured. All strains grew easy enough and didnt give me any problems from start to finish, smells lovely in my tent really excited to try them once they are ready. Thanks to everyone who has followed liked and commented along the way onto the next now. Dos si dos auto ( Another new release from Barneys) and amnesia haze next up so be sure to keep an eye out for them diarys thanks again and see you all soon when i update my reviews and add more pics of the final cured buds 👍✌️ ** ALL RATINGS ARE TEMPORARY UNTIL I CAN TEST AND GIVE MY OWN REVIEW** Thank you to Barneys Farm for providing me with these new 2020 strains to run, much appreciated i hope you enjoyed the journey and my diary over the past 15 weeks see you very shortly with my next run ✌️👍

This week went really well ! Today we are at day 79 from seed an looking beautiful! One Forbiddin Runtz got chopped an hung to dry out an the rest are still flushing out through the rest of this week! Very nice looking fades coming along on the fan leafs from purple to green , so beautiful ! So happy with these genetics from @fastbuds_genetics! Super sticky an smell is so amazing, room full of purple punch’s an Forbiddin Runtz the smell you can’t beat, so many berries!!! Well stay tuned for next week! Cheers y’all

hi guys, although the plant was born at the end of summer it is growing well and fast, the vegetative growth lasted about 4 weeks

Well unfortunately mistakes were made. I didn't release the lst tie downs over time as she grew. So I end up finding the stress spilt the main stem in half right down middle so I used the ties down ties and tied it together and undid all lst tie downs. When I resumed lst training I used lst clips and don't use tie downs anymore. 6/25 Raised light from 18 to 20 Added water, Ph Found main stalk was splitting so undid all lst tie downs and taped together 6/26 Added water, ph 6/27 Lst with lst clips instead Raised light to 24" Turned light intensity to 100% Added 5ml cal mag 6/28 6/29 Added 1.6L, 3ml cal mag, 8ml hydroguard 6/30 7/1 nutrients 3/4 Bloom 3gal = 11.3L Micro 0.75/L=6.4ml Gro 0.75/L=6.4ml Bloom 1/L=8.5ml Cal mag 1.5/L=17ml Bud candy 1.5L=17ml Big bud 1.5/L=17ml Hydroguard 2/gal =6ml Raised light 7/2 lst, added water

Mango Kush – Week 2 Flower (Week 6 from Seed) Bloom boosters, high temps, new lights, and a little tribute to nature Grower: Dog Doctor Strain: Mango Kush (Pheno #1 & Pheno #2) Environment: 8×8 Grow Room Control System: Full TrolMaster ecosystem (Tent-X brain + WCS substrate sensors and more) Lighting: • ThinkGrow Model One • ThinkGrow ICL-300 (x2 inner canopy lights) • Future of Grow Black Series 600W • Lumatek Zeus 465W Compact Pro ⸻ 🌸 Week 2 Flower – Transition Mode The Mango Kush sisters are looking absolutely stunning, even if this week was busier for me and I only managed a few photos. 🌱 Instead, I recorded a video walkthrough so everyone can see the whole room vibe, happy, lush, and full of energy. Both phenos are pushing beautifully into flower: • Pheno #1: Taller, branchy, already stretching into her flower frame. • Pheno #2: Started later, but catching up fast, morphing gracefully into bloom. The morphology shift is very visible this week, especially with the introduction of new bloom-focused nutrients. ⸻ 💧 Feeding Update – The New Recipe This week we swapped Start Booster → Top Booster and introduced a few Plagron classics to complement the Aptus base: Water Mix (per liter): • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml • Aptus Top Booster – 1 ml • Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml • Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml • Plagron Green Sensation – 1 ml We paused All-in-One Liquid for now, letting the slow-release pellets in the super soil do their work. The idea: less redundancy, more synergy. 💡 Experiment in Progress: I’ve used Plagron successfully in the past, but this is my first time weaving their trio (Power Buds, Sugar Royal, Green Sensation) into an Aptus base. It’s improvisation, yes, but that’s where discoveries are made. Let’s see how the Mango Kush girls respond! ⸻ 🌡️ Environment – Riding the Highs • Temps: Sometimes peaking at 34°C (🌬️ AC unit on the way soon!) • Humidity: 60–70% at times • VPD: ~1.89 kPa • Soil Moisture: Watering when down to 19–20% • Monitoring: TrolMaster WCS Substrate Sensor → feeding me EC, moisture, and root zone data in real time ⚠️ It’s not a “perfect” VPD chart this week, but the Mango Kush girls are handling it like champs. Sometimes stress teaches resilience, and these ladies are showing strength. ⸻ 💡 Lighting the Room The canopy is now supported by a serious multi-light orchestra: • ThinkGrow Model One – Main engine, full spectrum power • ThinkGrow ICL-300 – Inner canopy lights bringing energy to lower branches, helping all bud sites shine • Future of Grow Black Series 600W – Supporting spectrum balance • Lumatek Zeus 465W Compact Pro – Newly added, boosting the footprint and canopy penetration Together, this creates an even distribution of photons across the room, minimizing shadow zones and preparing the girls for heavy bloom stacking. ⸻ 🧠 TrolMaster Ecosystem – Grow Room Brain The Tent-X controller, paired with WCS substrate sensors, has become my right hand: • Live feedback on soil moisture, EC, temp, and RH • Smarter watering decisions (no guessing, just data) • Automation ready → The dream of a fully self-regulating grow room is coming closer For now, I still hand-water, but soon automation will take over. Until then, it’s hands-on love every day. ⸻ 🐝 A Tribute to Bees – Nature’s Pollinators While we manage indoor canopies with LEDs and controllers, let’s not forget the simple magic of nature. Outdoors, it’s the bees that keep the cycle of life moving. One photo I’m sharing this week is of a bee pollinating a flower, a reminder that without them, much of our food (and medicine) would vanish. Bees are not just workers; they are guardians of biodiversity. 🌍💛 Let’s honor them in every grow, even indoors, where they cannot reach. ⸻ 🔄 Recap So Far – From Seed to Now • Week 0–2: Germination & seedling stage, Aptus Start Booster for early vigor • Week 3–4: Veg growth, branching in Pheno #1, Pheno #2 catching up • Week 5: Flip to flower, stretch begins, PPFD raised to 766 • Week 6 (Now): Morphology shift, bloom boosters added, lights upgraded, temps testing resilience The Mango Kush girls have evolved beautifully every step of the way , two different phenos, one journey, one story. ⸻ 🔮 What’s Next • AC installation → stabilize temps into the sweet 26–28°C range • Closer monitoring of Plagron + Aptus synergy → expect denser flowers • Watch for first true pistils and bud formation in Week 3 Flower • More light power on standby as the canopy fills out ⸻ 📹 This week’s highlight: A video tour of the full room (since fewer photos this time). 📸 A few shots are included to show just how happy the Mango Kush girls are. 🌱 Thank you everyone for reading, learning, and growing along with us!

Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 P.S.- Why These Plagron Additives? – A Deep Dive I’ve decided to complement the Aptus base with three Plagron boosters. Each one has its own role in the flowering process, and together they form a very balanced support system for the Mango Kush ladies. 🌸 Power Buds (1 ml/L) • Purpose: Early flowering stimulator • What it does: Power Buds encourages the plant to initiate bud development faster. It shortens the “transition phase” from veg into bloom, helping flowers form sooner and more consistently across the canopy. • Why now: We’re in Week 2 Flower, the exact point where we want to signal the plants: “It’s time to build flowers.” Power Buds sends that hormonal nudge. ⸻ 🍯 Sugar Royal (1 ml/L) • Purpose: Enhances resin, aroma, and stress resistance • What it does: Sugar Royal contains amino acids that stimulate the plant to produce more chlorophyll and secondary metabolites. In plain terms: richer terpene profile, stickier resin, stronger smell, deeper taste. • Extra benefit: It also reduces stress from heat or drought, very useful right now since our temps have been spiking up to 34°C. • Why now: As stretch continues, plants need to stay strong and not waste energy on stress. Sugar Royal helps them thrive despite less-than-ideal VPD. ⸻ 💎 Green Sensation (1 ml/L) • Purpose: All-in-one bloom enhancer for the second half of flower • What it does: Green Sensation is a powerful 4-in-1 booster that improves: • Flowering: denser, heavier buds • Resin production: frostier flowers • Nutrient uptake: more efficient feeding • Soil health: stimulates beneficial microbial activity • Why now: Even though it shines brightest in late flower, starting early allows the soil ecosystem and plant metabolism to adapt gradually. By the time we hit peak bloom, the system is fully primed. ⸻ 🌱 How They Work Together • Power Buds → Kickstarts flower sites • Sugar Royal → Enhances resilience + resin quality • Green Sensation → Boosts density and overall flower performance The trio works like a team of specialists: one accelerates the start, one polishes the quality, and one pushes yield potential. Combined with the Aptus base (Regulator for strength, CalMag Boost for structure, Top Booster for bloom push), it’s a balanced, experimental, but very promising recipe. 💚 Growers love to all 💚
