4/6: The shortie is still drying, and I the bigger one is in the dark until tomorrow. 4/7: I harvested the bigger one and washed her buds. Very berrry! Later that night, I jarred up the shortie....drum roll please....she came in at a whopping 314g!!! It's very humid lately, so I'll weigh her again in a couple of days...she'll probably lose another 10-15g...but still...she fat. She very fat.👍 4/9: Evidently, I'm retarded. I must've put both #6's into the same drying rack. The photos I had posted of the "#6" were actually of a #3. The combined total weight of both #6's is actually 314g...the shortie probably weighed about 180g and the bigger one probably weighed about 130g. I'm still looking for the harvest photos of the bigger #6...

I am happy to announce a new beginning! This time there will be new genetics and seed banks that I haven't tried so far, so I'm very curious to see how it will turns out!🤞🏻☺️ Also it will be the second round for my beloved Runtz Muffin that i promised to bring it back.😁 Now I just need to wait until these seeds will go for 18 hours in a glass with water and then I will transfer them to the paper towel to make them germinate properly and finalize the process in their pots once the sprout stretches by at least 2-3 cm. ☮️💚 Happy growing and positive vibes to everyone 🙌🏻💚 ⚠️ 16-05-21 UPDATE ⚠️ Today i put these little girls into their 1L pots. Now I will let them grow here for at least 10-12 days before transplant them into the final pot (11L) ..See ya at the next update! Happy growing to everyone! ☮️💚 ⚠️ 17-05-21 UPDATE ⚠️ So the first ones to break the soil and reach the light was the Mimosa, K-Mintz and the Meringue. the Runtz Muffin is continuing to grow but still has not removed its seed from its head, which continues to be the slowest and still with a small sprout / root.. I'm sure that in the next few days it will be great together to her little sisters. That’s all for today..😊 See ya next time fam ☮️💚

Good morning all. Rather nice week with a correct stretch for each lady, except the Jamaican which, as usual, continues its slow growth in bonsai mode. A big thank you to PEV SEEDS who, graciously, agreed to send me a new seed so that I could try the adventure again with the Jamaican Lambsbread. (I will certainly have special attention towards her ...) So I decided to remove it from the flowering box to try to re-vegetation to try to save it and give it a new life as a mother .;) The wedding Cake clearly displays an Indica predominance, solid, bushy but with a reduced internodal distance. So I had to raise the pot by about thirty cm in order to obtain a homogeneous canopy and to be able to train it a little. Same principle for Thay Chocolate 2019 (heightened by 15cm) which, despite the long and thin very sativa leaves, seems to have started flowering more calmly. I took advantage of the departure of the Jamaican to also remove the 2 main branches. Sideral and Golden Goat, nothing to say, good growth. Ditto for Congo which continues to show us its superb genetics. I start to introduce a tear of green sensation but I limit the nitrogen because none is deficient. The Mars Hydro TS1000 works quite well but I think that for 1m2 it would be necessary to have 2. The flowering started slowly and the 150W Led are in my opinion the cause of this slowness. 300W would have been ideal. We will see later to fix this problem. The news of the week: The cold is here! big drop in temperature here for two days. Monday I install a small radiator to guarantee a warm and cozy cocoon for the girls. P.S. the water drops visible in the photos are remnants of the Vita Race foliar treatment applied this morning. There, I think I've done everything. Have a good week.

6/22 Some pictures didn't upload but that's probably a good thing. As long as the video went up its good. I need to take less pictures. I'm glad I watered the plants in the back with a premixed gallon last night as we didnt get nearly the rain I thought we would. It's small showers throughout the day. The plants are getting enormous. A couple have revegged. Mostly the 10th planet. The others aren't anywhere near as impacted. Boy are some of these stalks thick. I chose to keep a couple plants that could be grown naturally without topping or fimming. I like to see the structure of the tree bit with humidity like this 98%rh it's easy to get botrytis. That's why it's good sometimes to have multiple bid sites so your proverbial eggs aren't all in one basket. But you do end up with a massive cola. I think that mk ultra with the big fan leavescis just going to be one giant bud. That's what it's looking like. Oh and today is the summer solstice. Longest day of the year. 6/23 WATERED EVERYTHING. USED FIVE AND A HALF GALLONS. EVERYTHING GOT AT LEAST A HALF GALLON. Despite the rain we got and the bags still having some heft I decided to water. It's 80 at 9am. It's supposed to he in the upper 90's today and coukd break 100° tomorrow. I hate that the grow bags are black. That's way to hot for the plants. I should find some empty soil bags and wrap the black fabric for a couple days. A sunscreen might help but I doubt much. We'll see how it goes. 6/24 It's 90° at 9am. It's supposed to break 100° amd stay there a while. Up to 106°. Plants looked awesome this morning. I wasn't sure what I'd find. Today is the worst of the days. If it didn't break 100 yesterday it was damn close all day and the girls look GREAT. I WATERED AGAIN TODAY. I USED 6.5 GALLONS TO WATER THE GARDEN. It was nice cool well water too so they should like that. Branches are getting longer and I'm training as the get bigger. I need to put up the trellis but I'm not doing it in this heat. EDIT: 90° @ 6PM WENT OVER AND AS PREDICTED THE TWO TENS WERE DROOPING. IM WONDERING IF THEY WILL BE ABLE TO FINISH IM THOSE TENS. LAST YEAR I HAD ONE THAT WAS HUGE IN A TEN BUT IT JUST DEVELOPED INDIVIDUAL CALYXS WITHPUT CONNECTING. CHECK IT OUT ON LAST YEARS DIARY. IF THATS THE CASE I SHOULD KIGHT DEP THEM BECAUSE THEYRE GETTING BIG. I WATERED THE TWO TENS WITH ABOUT A HALF GALLON AND I USED WHAT WAS LEFT OF THAT COLD WELL WATER ON THE 10TH PLANET IN THE 30. SHITS LIGHTER THAN USUAL BUT LOOKING PRETTY GOOD. THE REST CAN WAIT UNTIL THE MORNING FOR THEIR WATERING. TOMORROW TOPS OUT AT 85° WHICH WILL BE MUCH BETTER. IM LOVING MY STRAIN CHOICES RIGHT NOW. 6/25 It's super humid out but much cooler. I think it's like 80 at noon time. I had to water the two tens this morning. I didn't really HAVE to but I did. I filled up my watering can that says it holds 1.5 gallons (but it seems like more) and watered the two tens at least a half gallon and focused the rest on the 10th planet in the 30 and the other one up front that gets lighter than the rest. I was fully planning on watering EVERYTHING this morning but I could feel moisture in the soil and they had weight. I'm pretty sure I made the right decision. Especially with humidity so high. Either way I'll check tonight. EDIT: WENT TO THE GROW AT APPROX 2:30PM. I HAD BO IDEA HOW HOT IT WAD OUTSIDE. IT WAS 87° BUT THE HUMIDITY IS DAMN NEAR 100%! I HAD WATERED SHIT A KOT LATELY AMD WANTED TO WAIT UNTIL THE MORNING. THE TWO 10'S (WITH GIANT PLANTS THAT IM NOT SURE CAN FINISH IN TENS) WERE DRY AND LIGHT. A COUPLE SPECIFIC PLANTS WETE A "LITTLE" LIGHTER THAN THE REST. I MIXED UP THE WATERING CAN WHICHVIS 2.5 AND ANOTHER GALLON. I USED THE WATERING CAN ON THE PLANTS IN THE FRONT. THE CHEMDOG #4 WAS SIGNIFICANTLY LIGHTER THAN THE REST SO I GAVE IT MOST OF A GALLON. THE PLANTS THAT ARE STILL HEAVY ARE GOING TO HAVE TO WAIT LONGER BEFORE I WATER THEM. 6/26 This morning I came over to substantially lighter bags. I watered everything but the 50 with 5.5 gallons of water. Plants amd roots are getting heavier. My intuition told me to water that 10th planet but it was still wasn't TOTALLY dry. This happens a few times a year during hot stretches. It will be fine by the time I'm back. I've also noticed that the pink kush in the 50 (the only one that didn't use ALL new soil) is a substantially lighter green than every other plant in the garden. Boy I'm glad that heat wave is over. It's 67° at 9:30 that's much better. I'll update as I go. I'm still thinking about light depping the 10s. EDIT: HASN'T BROKE 70 YET AS OF NOONTIME. I THINK I MAY HAVE GONE A LITTLE OVERBOARD WITH THE WATER. TH8NGS LOOK ALRIGHT AMD THERE'S A GOOD BREEZE SO EVEN IF I DID THEY'LL DRY OUT QUICK. SO MUCH GROWTH SO FAST! THE MK ULTRA WITH THE BIG FAN LEAVES LOOKS A LITTLE SAGGY BIT IT WILL COME OUT OF IT. THE 10TH PLANET THAT WAS DROOPING LOOKS A LITTLE BETTER. IT DID REVEG AND IS STEAIGHTENING OUT TROM THAT. I DEFOLIATED SOME SPOTS TJAT LOOKED LIKE SEPTORIA. BUT THERE WERE BURNS AND DISTORTED LEAVES FROM BEFORE SO ITS HARD TO TELL. JUST A COUPLE LEAVES WITH THAT DOT. TIME WILL TELL. ITS PAST TIME TO GET MY IPM GOING ANYWAY. DURING ONE OF THESE COOLER DAYS IM GOING TO HAVE TO PREEMPTIVELY TREAT MY PLANTS. EITHER BT, CAPTAIN JACK OR PLANT DOCTOR IS WHAT I HAVE ON HAND AT LEAST. I HAVE CITRIC ACID AND K BICARB BUT HOPFULLY NONE OF THAT WILL BE NECESSARY. THE WIND IS FAR TO STRONG FOR A MITE POPULATION TO GET OUT OF CONTROL WHICH IS AWESOME. IM MAINLY WORRIED ABOUT THE PATHOGENS. 6/27 Rained last night but I don't think very much. Its much cooler. Went from 100 to 70 in a day. Plants did good to take those fluctuations. They are still SLIGHTLY overwatered with the mk ultra with the big fan leaves being the MOST over watered. There's a breeze today though and it's sunny blue skies. I think showers ate possible tomorrow at 4a.m. and it says showers throughout tomorrow to which sucks. I wad hoping to get a couple nice days to dry the plants out. The 10s are light again but the soil is still moist. It's hard when it's so hot to water the correct amount. At least it is for me. Killed a couole moths and a pillar. I noticed the first sign of pest damage so it's time to get out and start the IPM. I'm hoping for no pathogens. I'll update as I go along. EDIT: IT'S 75° AT 11:30. That mk ultra with the massive leaves still looks overwatered. One of the plants in the 10s looks the same but that one is light but the soil is moist. The MK ULTRA is still holding some weight and the soil is still damp. It's not the AMOUNT of water I've given them that's the problem it's the FREQUENCY that ive HAD to water that messed me up. Going from 70° to 100° overnight for several days kinda messed me up. It's improving though. I lifted it and it doesn't seem TO heavy. The soil is still slightly moist. I hope that I don't get so involved with thinking the plants are overwatered that they are actually under watered. I think I need to increase volume when watering and treat each vacant differently (which I have for the most part). I'm usually very measured and careful but it is what it is. No more water for a little while. Other than thecshowers at 4a.m. and the showers expected tomorrow. Surprisingly the small time I was away allowed the plants to show a pretty drastic improvement. EDIT #2 WENT BACK DOWN AT FOUR TO CHECK THINGS OUT. THE MK ULTRA I WAS WORRIED ABOUT IS DOING MUCH BETTER. EVERYTHING (SANS ONE IN 10) IS LOOKING MUCH BETTER. I DUG DOWN AND CAN TELL THERES MOISTURE IN THAT SOIL IN THE TEN THATS A LITTLE DROOPY. THATS WHY ID RATHER UNDER WATER TGAN OVER WATER. UNDERWATER AND YOU JUST GIVE THEM A DRINK AND THEY PIP RIGHT BACK. WE ARE SUPPOSED TO GET SHOWERS TOMORROW EARLY MORNING. HOPFULLY NOT MUCH. MY INTUITION TOLD ME TO HOLD OFF ON WATERING THAT PLANT IN THE TEN. THE OTJER IS THE SAME WEIGHT AND LOOKS GREAT. WASNT PLANNING ON GOING DOWN SO UNFORTUNATELY I DIDNT HAVE MY PHONE ON ME.

2 weeks left on the flush. Running water with addrd Hydro Bio. Ive been noticing very nice white root growth on my vegging area... And lots of it. Hoping these look good. But they were 3 or 4 weeks on the previous bleach sterilization test. Gorrilla. Glue #4, my next grow has been on it since day one. So subscribe to that grow.

28.08.2025 Leider habe ich den notdürftig befestigten Ast verloren und er war tatsächlich so groß wie eine reguläre Indoor-Pflanze 😅. Es tat mir in der Seele weh, mich von ihm verabschieden zu müssen. Zurzeit ist es sehr stürmisch und regnerisch und ich kann froh sein, wenn ich auch nur eine einzige Blüte ernten werden kann. Sie ist sooo riesig und sprengt den Balkonplatz. Unglaublich!

Schönen Sonntag euch 😊 🌿 Wochenupdate Alles läuft weiterhin stabil =) Mein Fokus liegt aktuell auf dem Messen und Erhalten der Nährstofflösung. Bulking hat begonnen und ich freu mich jedes Mal, wenn ich das Zelt aufmachen kann =D Wer den Run hier mitliest, hat mitbekommen, dass ich mich bewusst für einen relativ hohen Start-EC entschieden habe. Das lag zum einen am Bedarf der Genetiken, die sich im Bereich zwischen Middle und Heavy Feed bewegen (wobei der Cross rückblickend nicht so der schlauste Take war 😅). Zum anderen lag es daran, dass ich recht viel Reservoirvolumen habe und möglichst wenige Eingriffe geplant waren =) Ziel war es dabei, jederzeit eine Mindestverfügbarkeit zu gewährleisten. Durch dieses, nennen wir es mal, frühe Gewöhnen – natürlich immer mit Blick auf die Reaktion der Ladies, konnte ich den EC komplett stressfrei bis 2,3 anheben. Danach war für mich Schluss, weil ich ehrlich gesagt keinen Mehrwert darin erkannt habe, sie nicht verheizen wollte und vor allem die Messungen gezeigt haben, dass der selektive Wasserverbrauch zu heftige Maße angenommen hat.. Sprich: Die Lösung selbst konzentriert sich über Zeit zu stark und der EC steigt in zu großen Schritten. Ich habe also damit begonnen, ab diesem Peak-Point den reinen Wasserverbrauch – Achtung, festhalten =DD mit Cal/Mag versetzt wieder aufzufüllen. In den Messungen hat sich dabei ein klares Pattern abgezeichnet 📊 Über 24 Stunden zeigt sich ein leichter Anstieg im EC, bedingt durch primären Wasserverbrauch, bei gleichzeitig sinkendem pH-Wert. Parallel habe ich natürlich immer beobachtet, wie die Ladies auf die Verläufe reagieren =) Sobald ich sehe, dass sich dieses funktionierende Pattern minimal verschiebt, in meinem Fall ein ansteigender EC bei gleichzeitig steigendem pH, refreshe ich 30 Liter der Lösung . Nach dem 30-Liter-Refresh fällt das System wieder in sein vorheriges, stabiles Pattern zurück. Für mich ist das ein klarer Hinweis darauf, dass der Mini-Shift das erste Anzeichen eines beginnenden Ungleichgewichts war =) Ab hier geht’s wieder weiter im Loop 🔄 Ich habe hier echt für mich mitgenommen, dass ein Teil-Refresh ein gutes Diagnose-Werkzeug sein kann. Wenn sich Verläufe nur minimal anders verhalten als gewohnt und man keine klare Ursache validieren kann, kann ein moderater Refresh dabei helfen zu prüfen, ob das System wieder in sein normales Uptake-Pattern zurückfindet. Normalisiert sich das Verhalten danach, kann man unter diesen konstanten Bedingungen davon ausgehen, dass die Ursache in der Lösung lag und nicht bei den Plants oder im Klima 🌸 Pflanzenstatus & Training Endlich ein spannenderer Teil zu berichten =D Das ganze Zelt riecht einfach wie ein Traum, ich würd da am liebsten den ganzen Tag davor sitzen =)) 🌿 Blueberry Cupcake frostet schön weiter ❄️ Bildet aktuell schön homogene Sites und zeigt sich als echt solide Genetik 💪 Sie macht viel mit und lässt sich wirklich gut trainieren. Meine Freundin sagt, die Gute riecht extrem nach Blaubeere – surprise, surprise =D Ich finde eher, sie riecht wie Blaubeerquark? =D Bin wirklich gespannt. Purpz entwickelt sich auch wirklich traumhaft 😊 Schöne kleine Golfbälle, allesamt synchron im Aufbau. Die Trichombildung ist mittlerweile auf Augenhöhe mit BBCC und wirkt nur durch die hellere Pflanzenfarbe selbst weniger spektakulär ✨ Vom Geruch her sehr fruchtig-süßlich, klar in den hellen Noten, aber nicht wirklich definierbar 🍬 Meine Freundin sagt, sie stinkt nach „Gras“ 😂.. Notorious THC frostet aktuell etwas hinterher, was bei den Infos, die ich dazu habe, auch zu erwarten war. Das Blattbild irritiert mich nach wie vor ein wenig, aber da sie sich sichtbar weiterentwickelt und sonst alles sauber läuft, schiebe ich das aktuell auf die Genetik =) Deckt sich auch mit den Infos drüber. Vom Aufbau her ist sie absolut gleichauf mit ihren Schwestern. Sie riecht ziemlich kush-mäßig, musste direkt an so einen dumpfen, aber geilen OG-Smoke denken🔥 =D Meine Freundin wollte ich hiermit nicht belasten – Dessert-Strains only ist hier die Erkenntnis 😄 Guzzlerz kommt auch langsam. Ihre Sites sind recht zart im Vergleich und leider auch deutlich weniger. Sie frostet mittlerweile und ist für ihren Stand synchron gegangen =D ❄️ Ihre Schwestern sind einfach zu dominant – man sieht, das war der schwächste Seed und das zieht sich 😬 Die Ansätze sind trotzdem sehr vielversprechend und in Zukunft gehe ich das auf jeden Fall nochmal an 💚 ⚙️ System Top-Ups erhalten weiterhin die Lösung =) 🔧 1,20 kPa VPD 700–800 ppm CO₂ im Durchschnitt EC 2.000–2.100 µS/cm 1.000 PPFD Danke mal wieder für eure Zeit 😊 Auf ein gutes neues Jahr und feiert schön 🎉🥂

Hey now, I hope everyone is having a great weekend, it was a good week for the ladies in the 5X5, they are all starting to stack flowers and really starting to distinguish their own smells. The Bubble Runtz has the most indica dominant looking colas and smells absolutely amazing. The Sundae Driver is looking like she is gonna have the fattest colas and be the biggest producer. I am really hoping I get the red phenotype of the Red Hot Cookies, and both the Green Crack and Durban Nights are showing the most Sativa characteristics and looking great. I now have the Medic Grow Light cranked up to 100% in F1 mode and am also using the UV/IR for 30 minutes per day prior to lights out. I am running a 12/12 cycle and feeding the same mix of GH nutrients which include Silica, CalMag, MaxiBloom, and Bloom Booster, with additional food grade Hydrogen Peroxide in the reservoir to keep algea growth to a minimum. I mix one 5 gallon bucket of nutes per day and clean my reservoir once per week. My pump is set to auto feed the plants every 5 hours after lights on, and I have a gravity self draining runoff setup I built. Not much to do from here on out, just keep the reservoir clean and full, a little defoliation, and 5 minutes per day to mix a bucket of nutes. I hope they get fat in the next few weeks and then I have about 7 people lined up to help me trim, I will throw everyone two zips for the help. hoping to do the wet trim in a day. I hope everyone has a great rest of your weekend, Thanks for stopping by, Stay Safe and Blaze On!!! 💪 Website: https://medicgrow.com/ https://growdiaries.com/grower/medicgrowled

What to say about this week? For starters LST was started this week. Initially I used garden ties but soon after replaced them with 6” garden staples . 2 of the 6 girls began throwing pistals resulting from the LST starting around day 15 YIKES 😬. The Zkittlez & the Runtz both from (Expert Seeds ) began giving the 5x5 its first smells . The LST so far has been a pleasure no ooosy daisies so far & the girls are showing what they are made of . The secondary shoots have great potential to form a nice round bush that I can train out into an even-as-possible canopy . Today is day 21 & day 20 for this bunch . They are only using Gaia Green dry amendments for feedings but I decided to take some advice given to another grower & supplement my girls with some compost tea . NO I DONT THINK THEY NEED ANYTHING ADDITIONALLY IM REALLY HAPPY SO FAR WITH MY NUTES bbbbuuuuuttttttt in the short chance that my ladies may take a liking to an occasional tea & reward my pampering with large , long , frosty, stacked cola’s . . Thennnn I’m supplementing , I consider this all “4-play” for my ladies Ik a giver 🤷‍♀️😭 My only concerns are racing against this clock to get as much size & solid structure before flowering sets in I’ve really got my heart set on a certain outcome & I’m one for a good challenge. Finally , atleast as much as I can remember, I increased the dimmer knob on the light from 65% to about 78%. I won’t increase the watts any higher until bloom sets in fully & at that point I’ll be turning it to 100% raising it a maybe 6 inches & watching patiently for my girls to start praying 🙏 to it . Week 3 in the books !
