## Week 7 Update: Strong Vegetative Growth 🌿💚 ### 🌱 Vigorous Growth Continues 🌱 Welcome to Week 7! All of the plants—Greenhouse Super Lemon Haze, Humboldt Seed Bubba Kush, and Blueberry Muffin—are still in the vegetative stage, and they’re thriving. This extra time in veg is allowing each plant to develop a strong structure, which will be crucial for supporting heavy buds when we eventually switch to flowering. --- ### 🚀 Vegetative Progress 🚀 **Greenhouse Super Lemon Haze 🌞** - Growing rapidly, with significant height and branch development. - The plant is responding well to LST, creating a wider canopy for better light distribution. **Humboldt Seed Bubba Kush 🌿** - Compact and bushy, with strong lateral growth. - Perfecting its structure to maximize yield in the flowering phase. **Blueberry Muffin 🥞** - Building a dense, sturdy frame with lush foliage. - This extra veg time is helping it develop a robust canopy, setting it up for a productive flowering stage. --- ### 🌱 Vegetative Techniques 🌱 To make the most of this vegetative period, I've been focusing on: - **Low-Stress Training (LST):** Continually training branches to create an even canopy and promote multiple bud sites. - **Topping:** Topping has been applied to encourage bushier growth and increase potential yield. - **Defoliation:** Selective defoliation to improve airflow and light penetration, ensuring the lower branches get enough light. - **Nutrient Management:** Maintaining a balanced nutrient schedule focused on nitrogen to support healthy vegetative growth. --- ### 🌿 Looking Ahead 🌿 The plants are growing strong, and this extended vegetative stage is giving them the best possible start before we transition to flowering. In the coming weeks, we'll continue to monitor their growth and make any necessary adjustments before initiating the flowering phase. Stay tuned for next week's update as the plants continue to prepare for a successful bloom! Happy growing! 🌿💚

Last week plants grew very healthy, as they got bushier the humidty raised providing a better enviroment, I could even reduce the amount of water I give them. Planning to move to flowering stage very soon.

I harvested the last plant in several steps. The results are impressive. The first fluffier one was not as productive with 301g wet and 43g dry, but I also harvested it too early for other reasons. I'm going to make myself a snack from the buds. The other one performed great. The buds are hard as stones and smell like tropical fruit gums. I'm really excited to see how it tastes! I'll update when everything is dry! 👻👽 UPDATE DRY: The run is done! The Tropicanna Poison was super easy to grow and smells simply great. The first testers almost blew me away, really strong. More than expected. I would definitely grow it again. I harvested the first one way too early on day 65 because I had problems with the humidity, so as expected only 43g dry. The beautiful but small one with the massive buds gave me 76g of super dense and delicious buds. Less than 2g of popcorn :) Of course, I only kept 49.9g of the most beautiful flowers and properly destroyed the rest. 😕

6/13/2023 Week 10- Day 1 of Flower (Day 131 overall) (Day 70 of Flower) Auto Pilot Day 6.. Checked the Trichomes and the bud density and both are looking good.. Definitely needs a little more time for the Trichomes to be where I like, so based on my check I think we are still looking right around the end of the competition 22June to be done and ready for harvest. I do like that the fade is coming in the leaves nicely, so my chart I think is dropping off the Nitrogen exactly like it is supposed to. 6/14/2023 Week 10- Day 2 of Flower (Day 132 overall) Auto Pilot Day 7.. Decided I would take some contrasting pics today with my light up to 100 and my light all the way on Dim. I hope you enjoy the pics. 6/15/2023 Week 10- Day 3 of Flower (Day 133 overall) Auto Pilot Day 8.. Decided to take a look at the Trichome's today and Check to see where they are at and honestly if I might ho ahead and start my flush tomorrow and harvest on Sunday. 6/16/2023 Week 10- Day 4 of Flower (Day 134 overall) (Day 74 of Flower) Today I pulled an Armageddon however instead of darkness they are going to get 48 hours of light. The reason why they are going to get light instead of dark is when I was taking out the netting a lot of the buds were so heavy they fell over and exposed some areas I really want to get some light to... so 48 hours of light at 40% while I watch what should be a beautiful final fade as the plant eats up the last Nutes. If anything goes wrong I can abort take the photos and cut so will pay really close attention to how it is looking over the next 48 hours. Added 30 Gallons of PH only Water. Reduced Lighting to 40% removed program time off. 48 hours of light. 6/17/2023 Week 10- Day 5 of Flower (Day 135 overall) (Day 75 of Flower) I had someone tell me that a few growers had done as I did and Gone Armageddon on the plants. Filling it with PH only and said the plants did not respond well and they were taken out of the comp at the very end because they felt like the pictures just wouldn't come out right. Even though I did go Armageddon, The PPM is at 353PPM with the residue of what was left in the buckets after draining as well as what I am getting from the TAP so I think they are doing good but I am checking them every few hours to see how they seem to be doing and I think they are doing good still and are on track. I also started prepping the area for the pics tomorrow T-24 Hours until Chop 6/18/2023 Week 10- Day 6 of Flower (Day 136 overall) (Day 76 of Flower) (Harvest Day) What a day.. what a day.. what a day.. as I was setting up and trying to figure out how I was going to get my pics #3 stems started breaking, it fell over and other stems broke.. So no really stunning competition photo for her, she had such a nice purple fade.. #2 stayed up in the Tent so that is the one I had to go with to submit for the contest. I wet trimmed them as they went into the tent and they took up three rows hanging in tent. I also decided I wanted to try some so I put a little in the freeze dryer for a 48 hour smoke test.. I will weigh it and add that to my total weight for the plants when it is all done.

I continue to see yellow leaves and cannot figure out the root of it. I can't tell if its a nutrient deficiency or a PH issue, if the nutrients that I add do no suffice then I will go get some PH down, as my soil PH is slightly high at 7.0, but I would not believe that could be the cause of it, only time will tell. To end on a more positive note, even with some yellow leaves some of these plants are bursting with life, and starting the 3rd week with some monster leaves for such a young plant. *UPDATE* We are now currently near the end of the weeks and the plants are beginning to truly thrive with some nice stalks and an explosion of colas. The yellowing seemed to stop now that I give it a regular supply of nutrients, also trimmed off any excessively yellow leaves. I did some very light pruning as well to allow more light to the newer colas and may have accidentally topped to runt plant way too early haha whoops so lets just hope for the best for the little guy.

Ph 6,5 todavía regulamos hasta el final el ph. (IMPORTANTE) cambiar bombilla pal siguiente cultivo.😂 Nos vemos la semana que viene.

🌟 FINAL HARVEST • DRY • CURE • SMOKE REPORT Blueberry — Pheno #1 & Pheno #2 Week 14 from Seed / Week 10 Flower — The Legendary Final Chapter 🌱 1. QUICK RECAP — Seeds to Harvest (For Anyone Joining at the End) This run began with two promising Blueberry seeds from Zamnesia, living proof that classics never die. Veg: explosive growth, strong roots, lush leaves. Transplant: they moved into Aptus Holland Super Soil, where they thrived. Flower Weeks 1–5: bud formation, intense frost, sweet berry aromas. Flower Week 6: bud rot appeared on Pheno #2 — caught early, removed cleanly, crisis avoided. Flower Weeks 7–10: explosive swelling, heavy branches, autumn colors, trichomes reaching peak maturity. Both phenos ended massive, dense, aromatic, beautiful — truly end-game Blueberry. 🌸 2. THE FINAL WEEKS — COLORS, AROMAS & MATURITY As we entered Week 10 flower (Week 14 seed), both phenos were glowing: Pheno #1 lighter green sugar-frosted classic Blueberry shape balanced sweet aroma Pheno #2 reds, purples, deep tones heavier berry sweetness dense, heavy, colorful colas slightly stronger effects Trichomes were mostly cloudy with a sprinkle of amber → perfect harvest timing. ✂️ 3. HARVEST — The Real Process 🌿 Whole-Plant Harvest Both plants were chopped whole, despite their weight. Branches were bending everywhere — a sign of success. ⚠️ Bud Rot Reminder We removed the last small suspicious area on Pheno #2 before chop. No spread. No drama. Perfect timing. 🌬️ 4. DRYING — 60/60 Science (Two Full Weeks) The girls dried for a full 14 days at: 60% humidity 60°F (≈15.5°C) 🌡️ Why 60/60 Works (Science Made Simple) Lower temperatures preserve terpenes (they evaporate easily). 60% humidity slows the dry enough to keep buds sticky, flavorful & potent. Two weeks ensures internal moisture moves outward gradually. The result? No hay smell. No harshness. Just pure blueberry flavor intact. This is exactly how craft growers dry premium cannabis. ✂️ 5. HAND TRIM — The Art of the Finish After the 2-week dry: ✋ Hand-Trimmed With Love Trim bin underneath Scissors for precision Fingers for sugar leaves Careful shaping Every nug handled gently to protect trichomes No machine trim. No rush. Just pure craftsmanship. You did this perfectly, my love. 🎒 6. CURE — Groove Bags & Glass Jars After trimming, all buds went into: Groove Bags (Primary Cure) They work beautifully: no burping stable humidity terpenes locked in ideal for long storage Glass Jars (Secondary Cure / Aroma Boost) Some jars were used for the classic cure method: controlled humidity slow flavor deepening easy aroma checks The combination of Groove Bags + Jars is a master-level solution. ⚖️ 7. FINAL YIELD — Cured, Clean & Ready 🌿 Pheno #1: 202 grams 🌿 Pheno #2: 204 grams Over 400 grams total, not including the removed bud rot pieces. Absolutely spectacular for two plants. 💨 8. SMOKE REPORT — True Blueberry Essence Pheno #1 — Classic Blueberry sweet berry creamy, smooth uplifting high bright green buds perfect for daytime relaxation Pheno #2 — The Colorful Queen deeper blueberry notes slightly stronger effects richer terpene body stunning purple/red tones powerful aroma when broken open Both are faithful to the original Blueberry flavor profile — and Zamnesia deserves real praise for nailing the genetics. 🔮 9. WHAT TO EXPECT (And What Not To) Expect: smooth smoke deep berry sweetness relaxing, euphoric effects consistency between phenos long-lasting flavor Not to expect: racy or anxious highs sharp harshness (60/60 prevents this) terpene loss (your dry/cure was perfect) big differences between phenos — they're beautifully similar ❤️ 10. THANK YOU — To Everyone A final bow to: the community the followers (old & new) the silent watchers the supporters the haters (they push us too) the GrowDiaries family Zamnesia, for delivering true, original Blueberry genetics and to this beautiful journey we shared From seed to harvest… from week 1 to week 14… from two seeds to over 400 grams of pure beauty… This was a legendary grow, my love.
