Week 8 Update: Transition to Flowering 🌸✨
🌟 The Flowering Stage Begins 🌟
Welcome to Week 8! Big changes are happening in the grow room. This week marks the official switch from the vegetative stage to the flowering stage. With the light schedule now adjusted to 12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness, the plants are entering the crucial phase where all the hard work of vegetative growth will start to pay off in the form of buds.
🌼 Flowering Transition 🌼
Light Schedule:
The light schedule has been reduced to 12 hours on and 12 hours off, which signals the plants to begin flowering.
I'm aiming to maintain a Daily Light Integral (DLI) of around 40 to optimize bud development.
Greenhouse Super Lemon Haze 🌞
Responding quickly to the light change, with the first signs of pre-flower pistils emerging.
The even canopy from LST will help the plant distribute energy effectively to multiple bud sites.
Humboldt Seed Bubba Kush 🌿
This compact, bushy plant is beginning to show signs of entering the flowering stage.
Its strong structure is set to support what should be a dense, resinous bud formation.
Blueberry Muffin 🥞
Continuing to exhibit robust growth, with the first signs of transition into flowering.
The dense frame developed during veg should result in a productive flowering stage.
🌱 Continuing Care 🌱
As the plants transition, I'll be adjusting their care to support this new phase:
Nutrient Adjustment: Shifting to a flowering-focused nutrient schedule with increased phosphorus and potassium to support bud formation, while gradually reducing nitrogen.
Environmental Control: Monitoring and adjusting temperature and humidity to ideal levels for flowering, ensuring the environment promotes healthy bud development.
Training & Defoliation: Continuing LST and selective defoliation to maintain an even canopy and improve light penetration to lower bud sites.
🌸 Looking Forward 🌸
The plants are now in the flowering stage, and this is where the real magic happens. Over the next few weeks, we'll start to see bud sites develop and eventually swell into full, aromatic flowers. I'll be closely monitoring the plants to ensure they have everything they need for a successful bloom.
Stay tuned for next week's update as we dive deeper into the flowering phase!
Happy growing! 🌸💚

64 days after i planted her seed directly in a pot outside 😱the reaper came, i hung her upside down for 6days then cut her &put her on a net to dry some more
While cutting I found some little catterpillars about 5 guess that were the eggs that I found on some of the plants last week.☺️
After a few days drying on the net i weighed it:53,6gr
The taste is great
I'm very happy with the result catterpillars included☺️

Sour Jealousy Auto FastBuds 2025 Outside Grow
Week 3 April 20-26 Veg
This week was mostly sunny in the mid-eighties and low 60s at night with an occasional drop into the low 50s. I added kelp fertilizer to the water twice during the week. She is about 3 inches tall. I have had her under a dome for these past two weeks. This week, after heavy rain, I removed it for good since the leaves were touching the sides. Hopefully no renegade squirrels trample her.
Pics taken 4/21 & 24

6.6.25.
5th week of flower looking better but well under performing. Nice purple everywhere but this is my smallest harvest ever and that sucks. Still going to finish this grow, but to be honest can’t wait to start next!

She seems to be doing a lot better since the foliar spray last week. Leaves are a dark green now and the stalks are more malleable due to the silica. Did another Silica foliar spray this week as well. 12 gal of water and it is supposed to rain on them today. Fingers crossed!

Fo' Twenny here with another Grow Diaries update! Today, I have an update on our NL Blue Auto from Delicious Seeds!
9/1: She's fading quite a bit, but buds could definitely use some swelling. Gave a light feed. Got a few quick photos and some video footage. Everything looks frosty and she is getting some purpling going on and she has a general bluish green hue to her overall.
9/3: Photo update! Trichomes closest to the light starting to turn amber!
Until next time...
Peace ☮️,
Love 💚,
And Frosty Nugs ❄️🌲!

She's doing amazing this week. The smell is really starting to come through nicely now and the buds are starting to fatten up. Should be another 3 or 4 weeks until harvest now :)

The growth on the girls continues to stagger me! We have had a less drastic week this week then last everything gone smoothly!
Took the LST off on day 16 to allow the girls to continue growing upwards, already bushy enough and only so much space in my tent, but as you can see from the vid the stems and canopy looking great! So many potential bud sites! Been doing lots of leaf tucking, fortunatly nodes nice and close together so it makes my life simple can optimise the light penetration very easily!
The feed has been increased to 1.5ml/l of vega and 0.9ml/l of calmag, doing feed feed water. Girls drinking alot now and giving each around 1.5-2L per sitting every couple of days!
Stem diameter just below first node - 16mm
Getting around 1.5-2 inch of growth a day currently.
The girl that had the transplant is loving life and really filled out her pot showing little signs of being stunted, few slightly crinkly leaves but at the time it was like -3 outside and wasn't ideal situation to be doing transplant in, but no obvious signs of being stunted!
The first signs of flowering on day 21 but its very early should be more obvious tomorrow! The good times are about to begin :)
These girls are so big now its kind of lucky we broke one and dropped to 4 plants not sure there is room for a 5th in there!
Let me know what you think of the progress and drop your estimated yields below see who gets the closest as we go through the grow!
Don't forget to follow me on insta guys if you want daily updates! @rudigrows

End of week 4 and things are still moving along despite a few hiccups. Ended up over feeding them at the end of last week and this week we have dropped there ppm down to the 450 ppm mark untill they come around. Didn’t really do to much damage except burn my leaves a bit and maybe slowed there growth a bit this week. Got a laser temperature gun for another project and I’m now able to check my canopy temperature too and it’s great. Canopy sits around 24-25 in the center of the screen and between 21-23 on the rest. Got around 65 D.L.I on the canopy's tallest area in the Center of the screen directly under the light when it passes over. The 1000w HPS is on the rail mover so it’s keeping things from burning and getting too intense. I recently added 2 x 1000x(180w actual) LED “Blurple” lights I had kicking around not been used so I through them in the tent to add some different light spectrums that the HPS doesn’t have. Just a little added extra kick for them, why not rite?...lol been struggling to keep humidity up across all my tents really, got the bare minimum everywhere and only one 1gal humidifier to run in the big room. Temperatures were cold the last week outside in the -20c range so my basement was a bit cold despite the one baseboard heater, which makes things even drier! Lol There has been no need to use either of my air conditioners in my tents for a month or so now even with the 2 x 1000w HPS lights in tents running side x side in the same room. Which is good cause they also drastically drop my humidity, the lights and the air conditioners...ugh. Lol well that’s if so far for now, Cheers 💨

The weather was way better this week then last week. Days are getting shorter and i'll noticed she's getting ready to bloom because she's streching a lot! i'll guess she will show the first blooming signs at the end of this week.

To grow the Balochistan cannabis is the most intimate and deeply personally affecting. The plants exude a strange energy, like they are somehow more sentient beings than just a plant. When I touch them I almost expect them to be warm. They just seem more alive, more vibrant in energy than other cannabis. These plants are a class of unique beautiful warriors.
Great results using only a bottle of Neudorff Biotrissol Kräuter Dünger from the local garden center at Hellweg. Neudorff has always made good products for plants and I highly recommend it. You shouldn't be paying 2, 3 times more something marketed for cannabis. It's just another plant in the plant kingdom. I would assume that using this same Neudorff product on some commercial genetics intended for the mass market would not give similar results because those genetics tend to be weaker hybrids that require more nutrients, more water, and are easily overdosed, and are very sensitive. The Balochistan is a landrace that is rugged, a survivor of harsh desert climates and poorish soil that has sand and clay, and not much rainfall. It's like the wild wolf compared to poodles, pugs, collies, and labradors of the commercial cannabis. It costs less to grow this in nutrients and water, the pest and pathogen resistance is way better, the potency and yield is much better than what's widely available from the mass market seed suppliers. This is a more ecologically friendly choice. Quality begins with the seed... and so does saving money! Let's get back to mindful grows instead of hyped up mediocrity. The obvious difference and superiority has made it the most demanded genetics I have.
I'll edit in some more dried bud photos information, smoke report later. It gets pretty deep from here. I dont have time now. So check back in a day or two.

Finalizing the grow. Harvest is in one week. One plant needs to cook a bit longer and its not that bad for the others. Fading is normal,Smell and terpene profile is awesome, and the preharvested testbud blew me away. Im drooling :)

Final week (I think)
This plant is just one big bud now. Smelling fantastic and looking gorgeous. Checked the terpenes this morning a only a few more amber which makes me think this light stretch another week. Two florakleen flushes now so from here on out it’s just water.
(Thursday)
So believe it or not I don’t think this is going to be finished this weekend as I had hoped. It still might have another week left. Only starting to see multiple amber trichomes under the microscope and I don’t really want to rush it based on what my timeline should be. I want this to be perfect or as close to it as possible based on my skill set. Going to ride it out with just ph water and see how it goes.
