Hello Growmies, The final chapter of this incredible journey has unfolded, and it's time to share the bountiful harvest and reflections on the entire cultivation process. Trimming the plant was a joy, and with gentle fingers, I removed all the large fan leaves. The precision in this process revealed the true beauty of the buds, setting the stage for a smooth harvest. With care and gratitude, the plant was chopped, and the buds were hung to dry. The anticipation for what lies ahead only adds to the sense of accomplishment. The wet weight, excluding fan leaves, stands at an impressive 782 grams. The buds are massive, a testament to the efficacy of the nutrients used, particularly the Power Buds. The name seems apt, as the result is a collection of sticky, dense buds with subtle lemon notes and sweet pungent undertones. In the final moments, the plant unveiled some delightful purple hues. While I wish I could have allowed them to intensify further, it's a reminder that each grow is a learning experience. In hindsight, a slightly longer fading period would have accentuated those beautiful colors. We live and learn, and that's the essence of this journey. A heartfelt thank you to Plagron and Zamnesia for hosting this amazing contest. The quality of the products and the support throughout the journey have been invaluable. As this chapter concludes, I'm left with a sense of fulfillment and gratitude for the collective experience we've shared. The plant's growth, from seed to harvest, has been a testament to the art and science of cultivation. Feel free to check out my other adventures in my bigger environments, until then...happy growing! Stay Lifted Salokin

Had to cut the Moby down. More and more mold developed so I saved, what I could. 20 % (lower, smaller flowers) I left to see, if they can grow some more. Honey cream stacking up fast. Really fast flowering. But still has at least 2 weeks to go. Hope to get her to finish. Extreme good smell. Sweet, spicy, rich earthy aroma. Extraordinary creamy. Huge colas

Hi Growmies. Here we are at the beginning of the end for the expert seeds grow . The Glueberry was taken out at day 60 and spent 48 in the dark before I trimmed her up for her slow dry. As I expected, I had a lot of undercut that won't be much use for bud weight but will go into some nice ice hash with the other trim. The main buds are a nice size and density with a very strong diesel and fruit hit coming from them too. They have a nice oily feel with a tacky after touch so should be nice and crunchy on drying after the cure. I have her in a cardboard box with cool 10°c air exchanging . This will hopefully slow the dry down and allow for the conversion of any stored chlorophyll into more usable thc and oils. Her trichs had enough Amber's to feel ready for harvesting her too. Now the waiting game .lol Mimosa Lemon is only now showing signs of and ending soon . Her hips have remained loose and sadly very open which is going to be a dissapointment on the yield front for sure. Her potency will no doubt be bang on from the sample I dried of a lower popcorn branch. She has a very strong lemon scent any where close to her now and I think she would be great for extractions. I am not looking forward to how to trim her now.. lol She began so well too but her bud growth has been a sad dissapointment . I am hoping her final effects will save her reputation. Another week will hopefully show some clues to this. Until next time growmies. Be Healthy.

week 11 75 days according to the breeder this strain has 7-8 weeks of flowering. with the possible stress that the plant has suffered maybe it has slowed down its growth a little. but since I'm not impatient and I have time is not a problem. I like to let it mature on point so I let it roll for another three weeks. As for the sample I took a week before... it was on a good track. I could already feel some notes and aroma but deep down. very heavy and harsh smoke, to remember that there was no flush or cure, just dry. Now its waiting for the whole plant dry. 🤞🙏

Day 49 Since the last update, the plant has only shown very slow signs of recovery. There’s a bit of fresh growth appearing in the center, but overall it remains weak and far behind expectations. The leaves are still drooping, though not quite as badly as a week ago. The pale green color persists, with some areas still edging toward yellow. This shows the roots are still struggling and nutrient uptake is limited. The heavy topping has given the plant a wide, flat structure with many bud sites, but at the moment it can’t take advantage of that shape. The potential is there, but growth is stalled by the stress it’s under. Watering has been kept very cautious — smaller amounts with longer breaks to avoid waterlogging. The medium was allowed to dry out thoroughly before watering again this time. Even so, the plant seems to be putting most of its energy into recovery rather than active growth. Compared to the other plants, this one looks “stuck.” Because of that, my expectations have shifted — I now see it more as a learning project. The new strains I started alongside are doing much better and give me confidence for this run overall. For now, the focus is still the same: no extra stress, no experiments — just steady care, patience, and time

The total height at harvest was 42". Measured from the top of the net pot to the tip of the cola...Almost too tall for the tent, when you add the light, distance and air filter. The wet/trimmed weight was 409g for one plant. Took about .3m2 of grow space. Super resistant to things like mites and changes in environmental conditions, and nutrient levels. Be careful at end of harvest, the buds are so fat, wet, and dense that mold/rot can quickly be a thing if not managed with humidity and airflow. I opened up the nodes a bit to help with air flow. The diameter of each main cola was 4" at time of harvest. I moved my fans around three times a day to make sure each side had some direct air for a few hours each day and kept RH under 55%. I let the cool air here at 7,000-foot elevation pour in at night and she prob got down to 52 degrees. Purples were very prominent, but I'm sure some will fade as the cure happens. I would totally grow this again.

wish i got that ph tester sooner lol massive difference!! The flowers are coming on very nicely, I am confident alot of my issues in the past were from my ph being off. Cant wait to see the flowers this harvest. Not much to report back on other than that. co2 is going with the homemade mix from my previous diaries. should see some really nice flowers by next week!

Panikiller 3 ist nun endlich auch in der Blüte, die Lampe ist bis zum Maximum nach oben gezogen, hoffen wir mal das die Ladys nicht noch höher werden. Dünger nach BioBizz Schema, licht auf 80%, Abluft auf 80 %, Ventilator Vollgas Die Ladys hatten deutliche Anzeichen von Licht-Stress, daher wurde die Lampe auf 80% gedimmt. 11.07 Die Pflanzen sind alle sehr unterschiedlich entwickeln sich aber sehr g

Some of you may have wondered: Why do I use CO2 at average 950 ppfd μmol/m2/s (moral flow)? The answer is quite simple. Because of lack of space in some regions of my cultivation area, I simply cannot keep the ideal distance to my Sanlight high-performance lamp, due to some height growth of various strains. And so some of the main colas have ppfd values of 1250 μmol/m2/s and even more... So this is how I manage to achieve and compensate for such high radiation levels even with a CO 2 balance. And I have to say, my strategy to avoid various light stress symptoms works just fabulously. In combination with CO 2 implementation, my babies are simply unbeatably insensitive to light. Thats it! Beginning of 3rd week flowering: Again feeding my babies by 36 hours fermented potions of Bio Tabs Kompost Tea PK-Booster (15 g pro Liter) and added: 5ml Orgatrex/Liter 1 Spoon of Bactrex 1 Spoon of Mycotrex 1 Spoon of Mycco-Vital 1 Spoon of Dynomyco A little tip for those who are interested in small modifications that have a big difference or influence - on the result - effect - beauty - health - taste! Before adding microorganisms or beneficial bacteria or Mycorrizae and Trichodermas, please use oxygen-saturated water. On the one hand, unwanted chlorine gases evaporate and the small world of the microbiome becomes even faster and more rewarding in compost tea to sprout. Last but not least for this week, I would like to introduce my reasons, why I prefer growing biologically and sustainably. First of all, it’s something which suits very well in these times/days we are living now. Sustainability is a big need and task for our planet. 🌎 Nature means life. Our home, the air we breathe and everything that surrounds us. Not just today. Hopefully tomorrow as well. Maybe I'm starting to protect our environment on a small scale, but maybe I can also make a big difference at all. If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change... I thought about what’s the difference, between Mineral Feeding and Super Soil Feeding. It’s very easy. Biologically Growing is a similar process than the natural soil activities out there in the lap of nature’s. So plants has to work and interact with the microorganisms and microbiomic communities in the soil. So the plants will never get lazy like the lazy ones of mineral feeding growers. If you grow biologically, you will feed the soil first and the microorganisms will support every parameter next to your plant conditions. And that will generate an unbelievable spectrum of Terpenes and Trichomes you will never forget. It’s the same comparison, when you daily visit McDonalds and you eat only fast food. How does your body and mind react on this shit for money?!?! May I invite you to think about it… See you next week dear Growmies! Have a nice Weekend and take care… Peace out! Addendum for Day 53: At the moment we unfortunately have another winter onset here in Germany. This means that I am forced to take additional heating measures due to structural facts in order to be able to keep the temperatures constant. After all, just tonight the thermometer climbs again to -1 degree Celsius. In addition, my exhaust air system runs out of my bedroom terrace and I therefore grow winter and summer with the patio door open. Well, sometimes I experience real weather-related challenges. But all in all, no problem... "Where there's a will, there's a way." Addendum to pouring out the fermented PK tea: I always administer half a liter of lukewarm aerated water with 3.5 ml of cannazyme per liter to each plant. This means that the "root machine" is not supplied with supplies unprepared and the nutrient solution can thus also be better distributed in the soil. Since I also work with cloth shoes, I spray them evenly moistened everywhere with water that is also warm before pouring them out from the outside. This has the advantage that the moisture stays where it should: in the pot! ... I did the math today ;-) We are still in week 7 until this Friday. And week 8 starts on Friday! OMG... still so much time yeahh! Today my Fast Buds Sour Jealousy and Sweet Seeds Big Devil and Dark Devil Automatics arrived. I'm looking forward to it. This time Fast Buds next Time Sweet Seeds. Love them too. Very beautiful genetics. Today a review video of the beginning of week 3. At the time of the pictures, I had minor signs of nitrogen excess. (Light peaks first at the crown of the roof and then slightly continuing to the middle section.) I then painstakingly racked my brains as to why this could be. I found that very slight dry spots had formed and therefore the root found small accumulations of nitrogen that caused its problems. But then, when I carefully homogeneously checked the moisture content in the substrate, the problem evaporated again. However, they had not shown any loss of growth rate during this time. Nevertheless, they developed as expected. They Strawnanas had no problem with that. In the end, I always have a hard time killing them. But I guess that's the way things go. We live and die. We come and go. But it's not there yet. ;-) Tomorrow is day 56. Tomorrow’s updating day! Can't wait to see their progress. Have a good time and see you tomorrow… 🏽🕊️ 🏽 ☮️🕊️

The plant had some issues earlier in the week, but thanks to a fellow grower who helped me to sort it out! The pant is doing fine just that the leaves that turned pale never turned back green… but I still see new pistil formations very often in new sites!! Hope everything goes well.

@FAST_BUDS, Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. This is my second cultivation ever and it will be fun to try a bigger space than my closet grow. First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom. I put some pictures on the construction here in week one. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of ​​3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable environment in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 8 pcs 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. But there are no cultivation rooms to be displayed here, so I continue with what is most important. Today I have put my seeds in my moisture dome and hope the seeds have germinated within a few days. I am very excited to see how the new growroom will work and how this new secret CBD plant from @FAST_BUDS, will turn out. .............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. 2017-09-11. Kl 12.00. Week 4 starts. I have cleaned the whole room for the new week and gave the girls water and nutes. Added videos and pics. Girl nr 1 is 27 cm high and girl nr 2 is 22 cm high. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-12. Kl 10.00. New pics and video.
