8/27 I think I mightve been overwatering. It's so hard to tell when the conditions change week to week. That's Maine for ya. Bags were still heavy and plants were soaked. I tried to shake the more advanced flowering plants without sending water everywhere. That's how septoria spreads. The event horizon I treated with plant doctor looks the best it ever has. It's tile for another application on the toasted toffy. I'm seeing a few spots again. I didn't have time to take pictures or do a video. This video is from last night. I'll treat that toasted toffy again today and I'll record it here. After I see it working u may treat the others. I see some residue of k bicarb but it has pretty much eradicated the pm. I know it will always be there but these treatments seem to be working. I'll be adding beastie bloom to my line up soon. EVERYDAY I go over the buds are bigger more compact and dense. Event horizon, toasted toffy and the red runtz (I think) in the 50 are flowering to beat hell! The get bigger everytime I see them. I can smell them as soon as I round the corner. This is going to be a good year. These strainsxare high in thc. Maybe I gave up some mold resistance and a harder to grow strain but if I can make it to the end it will be fire. WENT BACK OVER AROUND 5. OBVIOUSLY IN THIS SCORCHING 80°+ day the seedling in the 10 was dry as a popcorn fart. Some other plants seemed dry when I stuck my arm down the bag but I could feel some moisture when I pushed my finger through the medium. They WILL need water but I'm not giving it to them tonight. Took a shit ton if pictures and a video this morning. I'll uploadcthat shit tomorrow. I'm trying to do a couple right now. Anyway I continued to defoliate what needs it. Flowers are swelling. I GAVE THE TOASTED TOFFY ITS 2ND TREATING OF PLANT DOCTOR. I USED A QTR GALLON OF A 4 TSP PER GALLON MIXTURE. I MADE SURE TO GET AS MUCH OF THE FOLIAGE AS POSSIBLE AND THEN I USED THE RESTCON THE MEDIUM. I SHOULDVE PROBABLY WATERED THAT ONE BUT ITS GOING TO RAIN TONIGHT. AT LEAST I HOPE IT IS. Looks like some of the pics are uploading! Yay! The plants looked the best I've ever seen them tonight so I held off watering. My wife is I'll and may need to go to the hospital. So instead of watering prematurely I can monitor the situation and make a decision in the morning. I made enough phed water for my father to go around and water everything. He is aware of the situation. Hopfully that will not be necessary. However, I don't want to over water and I feel like they didn't want it. Just going with my intuition. It's done me pretty good so far. 8/28 Luckily no hospital. It's sprinkling out. Plants are covered in water so we got SOME rain. It says we will get 0.00 but that can't be right. I watered the 10 yesterday and everything else this morning with a gallon each except the middle gmo in the 30 which got 1.5 gallons. Did not water the one in the 50 gal pot. It looks a little overwatered. Also looks like it has a slight calcium/magnesium deficiency. I'll up the calmag and i'll make sure when I do water I'll water thoroughly. Like usual toasted toffy is looking better after the treatment. The all star has been the k bicarb. I haven't seen shit for pm. Just a little residue from the k-bicarb. Took a video and some pictures. This is the fun time. I like watching the buds develop. Some of these plants were monster cropped so they are STACKED. I'll keep what I do updated. 8/29 Made an awesome video today bit it won't upload. Probably because its a little over 2 minutes. I'll do another one if it won't upload. Nope it won't even attempt to upload it now. Oh well. They flowers just looked so pretty this morning. I noticed some WPM on the event horizon in the middle. I noticed SOME on the bottom and interior of the GMO that I had already identified. I'll do another k-bicarb treatment and see how that goes. Plant Doctor seems to he doing a pretty good job on the septoria on toastedctoffy and my favorite event horizon. That plantvis THICK. it's going to be stacked and have some huge colas. I need to LST it and suppirt those giant colas and separate them a bit more. There is never any shortage of work to be done I can tell you that. I have defoliation to do on the sherb pie and the middle event horizon. It seems like crisis after crisis. Bu my plants are STRONG. 8/30 It was in the 40s at 6am. Shook off the plants. Bags are still heavy. I see some septoria climbing a bottom branch of the toasted toffy. It's foggy as hell out. Can't see a foot in front of me. Saw a LITTLE PM on the gmo I've been treating. It's just time to apply the ki bicarb. Plant Doctor is working wonders on even horizon in the back. I see some pm on the one in the middle. I think I'll treat that with plant doctor as well. I'm not sure. I messed up the video. I've got work to do. I'm waiting until I water and I'll feed again. I'm going to add beastie bloom to the lineup this time I think. Only one plant seems like it m9ght be too early for it. We'll see. I need to look back. I'll document what I do. Video won't upload. I'll try later but it's sideways WENT OVER AROUND 3PM AND EVERYTHING LOOKED FABULOUS. WELL....THE PLANT I DIDNT WATERCLAST TIME IN THE 50 WAS DROOPING SO I GAVE IT A GALLON AND A HALF. THE TEN WAS LIGHT SO I GAVE IT A GALLON. IT WASNT DROOPY BUT ITS A HUGE PLANT IN A 10GAL AND USES A LOT OF WATER. I WAS PLANNING TO GO CHECK THEM TONIGHT AND SEE IF THEY NEEDED WATER BUT EVERYTHING IS PRAYING TO THE SUN! I DONT WANT TO OVERWATER AND I BELIEVE THESE WOULD BE BEST SUITED TO BE WATERED IN TGE MORNING. ILL FEED THIS TIME AS WELL. IM CONSIDERING ANOTHER APP OF K BICARB. TOOK A FEW PICTURES AND VIDEOS BUT ILL NEED TO UPLOAD 8/31 FED AND WATERED EVERYTHING. TOASTED TOFFY DIDNT GET FED DUE TO SEPTORIA AND THE 10 ISNT FAR ENOUGH ALONG.. THE 50 WAS WATERED YESTERDAY BUT GOT THE FEED WITH A LITTLE MORE WATER THIS MORNING. I ADDED ABOUT 1/16 TSP BEASTUE BLOOM TO THE REGULAR LINEUP TO SEE HOW IT GOES. MY BUDDY TOLD ME LOTS OF PEOPLE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH PM. I WENT BACK OVER TO DEFOLIATE AND LOOK FOR PM AND I FOUND IT. ON THE GMO INTETIOR AND SOME BOTTOM BRANCHES. I DEFOLIATED WHAT WAS BAD AND THEN I SPRAYED 3 GMO'S, EVENT HORIZON IN THE MIDDLE AND SHERB PIE WITH K-BICARB. HOPFULLY THAT WILL KEEP THINGS OUT OF CONTROL. I WILL BE WATCHING AND KEEPING UP WITH FUNGACIDES. IF I FIND ONE NOT WORKING ILL SWITCH IT UP. I HAVE A FEW OPTIONS. BUDS ARE EXPLODING IN GROWTH! WINDY OUT. I SAW A SECONDARY BRANCH LIMP AND MY GEART SUNK. I LOOKED DOWN THOUGH AND SAW THAT IT JUST WAS BLOWN HATD AGAINST THE TOMATO CAGE AND SNAPPED. I REMOVED IT WITB A SIGH OF RELIEF. MY BUDDY SAYS THE SEPTORIA DOESNT LOOK TO BAD AND ITS PRETTY FAR IN FLOWER SO HE THINKS ILL BE ALRIGHT. NEVER GROWING CLONES AGAIN. ILL STICK TO SEEDS AND STEAINS MADE FOR MAINES 9/1 Forgot to write an entry. IT RAINED FOR A BIT BUT TURNED TO BRIGHT 80'S 9/2 WATERED EVERYTHING. I THINK ITS TIME FOR ANOTHER TREATMENT OF PLANT DOCTOR TODAY. The septoria is getting a little worse. The buds are swelling everyday though. I think this plant only has a month left. I just need to outrun it. So far so good. I think my watering habits are better now. It's different depending on weather. Potassium bicarb has been wonderful treating the pm on that gmo. I treated the middle event horizon with it as well. It seems to work awesome. I'm losing tons of leaves. I hope that's normal senescence. I think it is seeing as how I see SOME foliage in the woods. Its matching other diaries. The plant must shed some leaves to make these flowers that seem to double in size every time I see them! Trying to upload a couple videos but they are long so we'll see what happens. WENT BACK OVER AT NIGHT ANDCAPPLIED A LITTLE BIT OF K BICARB AND DEFOLIATED WHAT I SAW ON THAT GMO. IVE BEEN DEFOLIATING WHAT SEEMS LIKE A LOT BUT BUDS ARE SWELLING AND ITS CONGRUENT WITH THE MAJORITY OF MY DIARIES. I WISH I HAD PERFECT CONDITIONS BUT I DONT. I TREATED THE EVENTHORIZON WITH PLANT DOCTOR AGAIN. I USED APPROX A QTR GALLON OF 2 TSP/GALLON AND TRIED TO AVOID BUDS WHILE STILL GETTING THE LEAVES. I KINDA USED THE REST AS A SQUALCH SINCE I HAD WATERED THIS MORNING. THE WIND WAS STRONG. I ADDED A GARDEN STAKE AND ROPE SUPPORT TO THE TOASTED TOFFY AND ATTACHED IT RIGHT TO THE FRAME OF THE CAGE. LOOKS GOOD FOR NOW. ILL KEEP THINGS UPDATED.

Start of week 3 for Black Lebanon by SSSC These girls just got their day 21 strip.. Pheno 3 didn't get a massive strip because she seems to be a few days behind everyone else so I'm going to wait before i do the same to her but i did snip a few fan leaves that were blocking light. They've been getting fairly watered heavy when they do get watered 2/3 times a week but I'm trying to water more often in smaller amounts. Pheno 1 & 2 have been stretching like crazy😍Was really hoping pheno 4 would catch up but doesn't seem like the case. Plants are loving the Taurus TRS600 every time i come in they are praying. The feed is BioBloom by greenhouse Feeding at 2.5g per L of medium.

3/3 COP is looking great. I should’ve grown her separately because 3/4 plants in the grow tent are indica dominant. I feel that she is the only one that is showing sativa dominant phenotype and is continuing to grow although budding has started. It worries me because I only have a few more inches of space to lift my lights before I may have to super crop her. She’s drinking about 2.5-3 gallons of water every 4-5 days. I also installed another scrog net.

Greetings, fellow cultivators and green enthusiasts! Week 9 of our Apolo F1's cosmic journey has unfolded with a sense of anticipation and reflection as we approach the long-awaited harvest. Join me as we delve into the depths of this extraordinary odyssey, celebrating the growth, discovery, and botanical brilliance that has defined our journey thus far. Nine weeks ago, we embarked on this botanical odyssey with a tiny seedling filled with promise. From those humble beginnings, our Apolo F1 has blossomed into a majestic specimen, a testament to the power of cultivation and the wonders of nature. Each week has been a chapter in our shared story of growth and discovery, filled with moments of triumph, challenge, and unwavering dedication. As we stand on the cusp of harvest, we are surrounded by a sea of vibrant blooms, each one a testament to the meticulous care and nurturing environment we have provided. From the delicate tendrils of her infancy to the lush canopy of her maturity, Apolo F1 has been a beacon of botanical brilliance, inspiring us with her resilience and vitality. The floral symphony she has orchestrated fills the air with its intoxicating aroma, a fitting tribute to her journey of growth and transformation. In celebration of this momentous occasion, I have curated a special photoshoot showcasing the beauty and wonder of Apolo F1. From evocative images of swirling smoke to captivating glistening trichomes, each photograph captures a glimpse of the magic that has unfolded before our eyes. These images are not just snapshots; they are a reflection of the passion, dedication, and love that has gone into nurturing our green companion every step of the way. Throughout this journey, I have incorporated enzymes into our watering regimen, recognizing their role in promoting healthy soil and ensuring the vitality of our plants. As we prepare to harvest, I am mindful of the importance of nurturing care and sustainable practices, knowing that the soil we tend today will nourish the gardens of tomorrow. As we stand on the brink of harvest, I am filled with a profound sense of gratitude. To Aptus for crafting the nutrient symphony that fueled our journey, to Royal Queen Seeds for providing the genetic star of our green opera, to Grow Diaries for their unwavering support and camaraderie, and to the entire community for sharing in this remarkable adventure. Together, we have proven that with dedication, passion, and a touch of magic, anything is possible in the world of cultivation. Join me in the final chapter of our Apolo F1 Mission Diary, where we'll witness the culmination of this extraordinary journey and celebrate the harvest of a lifetime. Until then, may your gardens flourish, and your green endeavors be ever blessed by the spirit of growth, discovery, and botanical brilliance. #aptus #aptusplanttech #aptusgang #aptusfamily #aptustrueplantscience #inbalancewithnature #trueplantscience #rqs #ApoloMission #MoonHarvestAdventure #playwithlego #lego #legotime #legovideo #tothemoonandback More info and complete updates from all my adventures can be found - link in the profile description Friendly reminder all you see here is pure research and for educational purposes only Growers Love To you All 💚💚💚

Finally harvest time arrived 🤗 It’s been a great run, though I had to improve a lot along the way. But as usual there was a way to get things done and finished up😎 After a long heatwave I decided to chop the whole tent, just a bit before I actually wanted to. But I see amber trichomes and heavy buds, so I think it’s safe to chop now, so here we go. 🤩 Can’t wait to taste this after so long watching over it🤤 More details to come.

The terpenes are starting to come through. There is a delicious fruity smell pushing through the diesel smell. The leaves are beginning to yellow and I think we are coming to the end. I have some pretty big and sparkly colas coming through. I shut off my red lights on the LEDs to get a good video that shows off that sparkle. Trichomes on the sugar leaves are beginning to turn amber, the rest are almost completely milky. I'm giving it another week before I chop. I do a slow flush at 470ppm with only canna boost, cannazyme, and cal mag. I will be topping off with only phd water this week.

Geurilla set up because it is ultra important that my neighbors, wife, police dont find it Gravity fed drip system feeds mini hempy buckets. Continous drip, bucket takes about 35 hours to drain. This will be a mostly video based diary going forward. Contest or not, I challenge all to this fun solo grow. This strain is a favorite of BeanswithPork and was gifted to me in December 2019. I checked the seeds for mites Follow along and see if I dont get busted

I pistilli iniziano a colorarsi di arancione ed anche cime e foglie iniziano a prendere un po' di colore, per il momento la pianta con il top è la più colorata ed è bellissima, continuo con i fertilizzanti per sfruttare queste ultime settimane per recuperare un poco

Day 84:These girls are so close now that I expect the next update to be one for the drying period. The Los #1 is a totally different colour in her ripening to the other 2. She feels like she has biscuit crumbs all over her now too. Her smell is so fresh fruit and I do think days are her time left now. The #2 has continued to swell he buds for the finish and she is colouring up nice too. #3 The poorly girl is steady in her ripening now and the buds are rock solid too. They all have a very fruity smell to them now and it hits me everytime I open the flap. They are on water now for their last few days , just to signal them to start using their leaves for their last feeds. peace and blessings.

Hey hey growmies! I've fallen ill with a respiratory bug, as a result my plants and the diaries have suffered somewhat. at the end of week 4 I left this diary with a super droopy plant, now, this little runtz lady has not only bounced back, but is thriving. I am leaving on a trip to New York in 2 and a half weeks, which leaves this lady in an awkward spot, I cannot flip her to flower and she's growing fiercely, I can obviously also not bring her from Belgium to the United States of America (Even though New York is a legal state :P) because Ganja is the devil in the eyes of our governments, as we all know. So she will continue to veg untill I get back the 25th of november, a whole ass month from now. This Runtz will be anything but a runt, but she has shown me some very strong genetic traits already, she takes a fucking beating this strain. So if her smoke is decent, and her flowers pretty, I'm keeping her around. Its always nice if a plant is tough enough to roll with the punches, and look at her, she's rolling. So thats the plan! Veg her out into a monster, take lots of cuttings and clean up her canopy. Hope we have mommy material, if not, I'm still going to try and grow a cutting from her, its a skill I need to build for when I do find a mom. That's it for now Growmies, Thanks for checking out my diary. Would you like to grow Runtz by Zamnesia yourself?

Noch viele durchsichtige Trichome. Laut plan haben sie jetzt auch noch 7 Tage bis sie fertig sein sollen. Kann momentan nicht abschätzen wie viel es wird aber qualität scheint gut zu sein und scheinen alle auch sehr hart geworden zu sein. Abwarten
