8/26 - sporty looking great, praying hard! Posh is working on it. But look who finally showed up to the party! I’m calling her Baby spice. She sprouted 12 days after going in the soil. Way to be a fighter girl! This is going to be a tricky thing to manage I feel like my gals are tracking a week apart. I’ll keep this journal’s timeline on sporty spice. -1 week for posh and -2 weeks for baby spice. spice girls let’s grooooow! 8/30 - exactly two weeks from sprout for Sporty and Posh. Pretty wild how big a difference there is between the two. Baby is getting her footing. Now. Sporty already pushing 4-5 nodes and I saw a tiny root through the drain hole. Wanted to pot her up! About 8 cups pro mix, one cup perlite. About 1.5 tbs of Gaia green 4-4-4, some worm castings and sprinkled mycorrhiza around where the rootball would be. God speed girly! 9/3. Potted up Posh today. About a half gallon pro mix, plus about 1.5 tbsp of the Gaia green 4-4-4. Plus about a cup of worm castings, perlite, and mycorrhiza. Sporty is looking very happy, 5 nodes and counting. Added back my second light, let’s go girls!!! 9/5. Wrapping up week 2 here, so far I’ve been really impressed with the pro mix Gaia green and soil support so far. The girls seem happy and healthy. See you in week 3!

12/19/2025 What a ride! So many screw ups on my part and she still came through! I was gonna wait for tomorrow, but after checking trichomes, I decided to harvest. Another reason is because I just popped 2 new seeds. So they'll need to go in the 3x3 soon enough. I'd love to try this strain again without any issues. Lol. She came out at 41 oz. Not bad. So I might get like 4 to 6 oz out of her. Can't complain for that. 12/20/2025 Day 1 and we are looking great! Temp is at 61° f and the humidity is hanging out around 57%. I have it set to 56%, but it likes to hover over it. Fine by me! So I'm guessing around 10 to 12 days. I have 2 seeds germinating right now. It should be a couple days for Germination and then about 10 days (hopefully a little more) in the seedling stage. They'll be moved into their buckets in the main tent. The problem is the 10 to 12 days is in the main tent. Granted I can always move her to the Drying tent after Papaya Cookies finishes up. But that'll be another 7 days or so. Maybe I should do that. I still have to clean all the equipment and wipe the walls down. Should take me just a day to do that. And another day to get the environment acclimated back to 77° and 60% humidity. Anyway, that's all for today. Let's hope it all pans out and I don't have to move her to the dry tent. I just don't want to move her at all. Not until it's trimming time. (I have to trim in the tent so I don't overwhelm my apartment with weed smell. Otherwise I would trim right in my living room. I remembered something. The roots of this little lady were super clear. Not clean by any stretch of the imagination, but but definitely clear. Especially in the pebbles. I have a feeling the sludge from Papaya Cookies was due to the top feeding system. It brought nutrients from the bottom up. But I over fed, so the salts all built up at the top of the water and that's what caused the pH fluctuations. Has to be it. And the light damage. 12/21/2025 Day 2 of drying. I have a time lapse video I'm making of the drying process. Unfortunately it's in night vision, you can only see that. But who cares! It's a time lapse video. They're cool. Nothing else to report. I'll take a picture on day 7 so we can see the difference. Other than that, it'll be short entries like this one. She smells delicious. I know the smell of going to go away for a bit and then come back with a vengeance. 12/22/2025 I suppose a picture is in order. It's only been 3 days. But there you have it. Nothing else to report. Staying strong at 63° and 56%. Something to report: So my pre-filter got clogged and blocked the air flow. By a whole lot. I tried to get it out, but it's kinda stuck there, so I squeeeched it on on itself like an accordion. That worked not great, but now there's air flow. I don't think I'm gonna run another pre-filter next run. Or maybe I will but not until flowering starts. Maybe it'll last the rest of the run. I just don't know how so much dust got in there. My house is honestly spot free. Like vacuumed every other day, wipe surfaces as needed so I don't have to spend a day going through the whole apartment. I do one room a day. So it's never dirty. Spotless apartment. Hell, I move the furniture around every other week to get under. Well, except for the entertainment center. That's kinda too big to move around. Or well heavy. Too much for me to move around at least. But everything else gets moved. The point is, there's very little dust in the apartment. So where did all this shit come from? Would it be the humidifier? I read somewhere that humidifiers launch dust or some sort of compound. Either way, it somehow clogged a pre-filter. At least my carbon filter is clean. Definitely gonna have to figure that one out. 12/23/2025 Day 4 of drying So this is the EXACT reason I kept my humidifier in the tent. It ran out of water this morning and by the time I got up the humidity was down to 37%. Hence why I keep the humidifier in the tent. As a matter of fact, my Papaya Cookies had the same problem. The humidifier ran out of water. Clearly I forgot to fill them up. Lol. Whoops. Anyway, that kinda makes me wonder how others keep the humidity up to a high 50s%. And no, I will not be moving to a tropical climate. Admit it, some of you are thinking that. But seriously. How do you keep your tent in range? Because the ONLY way to do it is to have a humidifier in the tent. It's the only way. Or have it outside of the tent, but either way, you need a humidifier on and running. Mine runs when the humidity drops below 55% then stops at 56%. Honestly I don't know why I'm not getting a range like with the AI. Frankly I think they need to add a drying stage in the AI system. The only annoying thing is the AI does 12/12 even though it's set up for an autoflower. I didn't change it from veg. Just in case something got messed up. We'll see when the next run gets there. Alright. She's on day 4 and has another good 8 days to go. Definitely. If not a day or 2 longer. She is very leafy and I didn't trim as much as I wanted to. I just couldn't reach some of the leaves on the inside. I didn't cut sugar leaves. I want them for concentrate. I think the actual Dry Tent will be free in a few days. Maybe 2, maybe 3. Who knows. Well, me. But I could be wrong. Lol. I will be needing it before long. I have my Apple Strudel and Blue Dream already seedlings and will mostikely need to be transplanted in the next 4 to 5 days. If not sooner. I'm really hoping I'm right and the Dry Tent will be free in a 2 or 3 days. Time crunch! 12/24/2025 Day 5 drying So I moved Lemon Cherry Cookies into the dry tent today. My Papaya Cookies was ready for trimming. Trim jail. So far it's been pretty bouncy because I had the main tent open. Other than that, nothing else to report. Lol 12/25/2025 Happy holidays everyone! Day 6 of drying. I'd say a few more days. So I forgot to fill the humidifier again! I'm setting an alert on my phone damnit. Anyway, the humidity was down to 37% no clue for how long. Probably a few hours. She's not done yet, but that sped up the process a lot faster than I wanted. Damnit. Oh well. I'm gonna have to figure out a better setup. 3 more days maybe? I tried brushing off some of the leaves with my cannabrush, but nothing was moving. Hence not done. Good to know. Cuz that thing is really only good for big buds. Not the small ones I have. Shame that. Maybe I'll get some nice fat nugs next run. 12/26/2025 Day 7 Ok so I live in an apartment house. There's 3 apartments. One downstairs and the other 2 upstairs. I'm in an upstairs unit. Well, SOMEONE (lower apartment dwellers) fucked with the fucking heat! I woke up to a 54° apartment in the middle of winter. The dry tent was 50° as well. I have a space heater, but it's not enough. The temp is up to 62° in the apartment and 51° in the tent. I'm keeping the tent humidity low so I don't get mold while I figure out when these assholes are gonna turn the heat back up. Seriously pissed off. And FREEZING! Anyway, it's only day 7 drying and I'm already feeling dried bud. The branches aren't snapping but hollow and will crush in between my fingers. It'll snap then, but like not when I bend the branch. I think I'm gonna have to ask a question. Or look it up. 12/27/2025 Day 8. I think she's done drying. I was going for 11 days, but clearly that's not happening. Not with the temp swing. Either way, I can smell the doneness and the snap test is ummmmmmm working? Things are snappy now, so I'm gonna trim today. I'll let the curing bags do the thing if they're too wet. Well, that's it for this part of my grow diary. Hoped you enjoyed the read and got some vital info of what NOT to do. Lol. For the rest of the diary, go to the smoke report. Thanks all for checking it out. 12/28/2025 Well, it's trimming day. I forgot to fill the damned humidifier again. So I woke up to 35% humidity in the dry tent. Everything was working fine until I turned the main tent on. The heater started blowing hot humid air instead of the exhaust fan venting it out. So I took that apart. Now I'm trimming in the tent with the humidifier on so it can keep the rest of the plant from getting brittle. I feel like it's a relace against time. Gotta get everything in the grove bags.

Tag 40: Ich gebe zusätzlich Alg a mic in das Gießwasser zur Stressbehandlung. Tag 46: Ich habe mich entschlossen diesen Grow abzubrechen. Seit kurzem werden die Blätter hell und fühlen sich trocken an. Ich vermute es liegt daran das ich einmal ein großen Schluck zu hartes Wasser genommen habe. Ich hatte einmal zuwenig Gießwasser vorbereitet (PH wert eingestellt 6,3) und es lief unten nicht raus so nahm unvorbereitetes (PH wert 7 etwa) Wasser zum Schluss, zunächst wuchs die Pflanze normal weiter, doch nach 1-2 Wochen stagniert das Wachstum die Blätter sind hell und trocken, auch die neuen Triebe sehen nicht gut aus.

Esta semana, tenemos que conectar el tercer Led LazerLite Pro 720W para que no se tapen luz entre las plantas más crecidas. También aumentamos la potencia al 50% y seguimos con riegos alternos con y sin fertilizante. Tratamos con Propolix vía foliar como preventivo todo el cultivo.

The High intensity was to strong (clearly my fault) in the beginning which stunted her overall stretch, she however still delivered super dense, terpene and trichome loaded buds.

Trying to increase light now that they're all healthier again, without burning away the pretty blue color they're developing. Gave them their late-flower defoliation, will wait until finishing to cut all the leaves off. Still doubling calmag and buildabloom. buildabloom has epsom in it it turns out, so I'll stop doubling the calmag when I use it. Gonna water one more time and feed one more time. I dont think its a matter of flushing or not, I just dont think itll continue to uptake much.

🎅 So, as for the smoke after 30 days of harvest day. Biscotti Mints have a high concentration of THC, definitely above 25%, you can feel it. Beginners should exercise caution. -The taste, I wouldn't exactly call it mint. It's similar to peppermint, but it doesn't taste like mint, it tastes like flowers. Bottom line, the taste is similar to pepper flowers. -The effect is only evening, not daytime. It will be good for an evening relaxation or in the company of friends. -The appearance is something beautiful. Everyone who saw him liked him. Dense, stone buds, green-violet color.

Long time no see! Week 12 has passed, the flowers are only now swollen and the pistils are browning a bit. We are far behind schedule but whatever. Mimosa is monstrously big. This is my second grow only, and im really impressed and a bit proud of myself. Growing in coco is a fucking full-time job. Since I dont have the time to babysit it and water all the time Im watering once every two days instead of watering twice a day, i beleive that even though Mimosa grew to be such a beautiful plant it is still far from its real full potential. Coco is a gift and a curse and the same time. Probably soil would be my medium of choice in the future. Cookies is far behind in development. I just hope to harvest 10-15g from her. She has had a rough life from the start. The seed wouldn’t germinate, then she grew upside down, and shes been strange ever since. Still feel blessed that i have the capacity to grow such a beautiful plant from seed to harvest. I beleive i have another two weeks with them and cant wait to cut them down

Was a busy week in this tent . Needed my 2x4 tent for some tutankhamon that I have coming up so this big girl got a roommate . Starting to have to feed her every day and a half and she's drinking 1.75 gallon each time . Also had some leaves higher up taco and the tips of the edges go brown and figured out that I sm pretty much over driving the plant with the light . So dropped it down to 70% for now to see how it reacts .

Hey guys! Here's the 3rd week of flower! 😻 This week I trimmed my babies (just a little, about 8 leaves or less each plant). Some leaves were healthy but were blocking a lot of light from the flowers and tucking them wasn't doing the job anymore. Besides that Boomer stretched out a lot (which also worried me as I didn't want my babies to go wild on me. I LSTed some of them hoping that would fix the issue). Where I live has been getting somewhat cold at night and I fear that might be doing something to my babies (I hope to be wrong). Besides that the flowers are getting bigger everyday and some are even starting to show some trichomes (I think looks cute!). The pistils are also getting bigger and the smell is stronger now (it was already strong). Near the end of the week I saw Falco's leaves were getting yellow and I suspect it is nitrogen deficiency... and what's causing it is probably some residues at the end of the pot (so I might need to flush her) or maybe I just need to feed her more nutes). Keep in mind she used to be quite small during veg and only in the end she grew enough to be transplanted to a bigger pot. Maybe she's just special? This week you'll see less timelapses compared to last week... I forgot to take photos for about 3 days 😅 but at least there are some! I hope you'll enjoy what I'm sharing! Thanks for reading! 👋
