Hello, Grow Diaries fam! 🌿✨
We’re now in Week 10 from seed, and what a journey it’s been. This week, the grow room has transformed into a breathtaking display of autumnal beauty, with the plants showcasing stunning fades and vibrant colors as they enter their final stages of life. It’s a true celebration of nature’s cycles, and the energy in the room is palpable. Let’s dive into this epic week!
🌟 Week 10 Highlights 🌟
The plants are embracing their last days with grace, each one revealing a unique spectrum of colors and expressions. The transition to 12/12 light cycle continues to push them toward their full potential, all thanks to the Big Demon, who’s still leading the charge with her massive stature. Here’s a closer look at what’s been happening:
1. Moon Rock 🚀:
• Appearance: Moon Rock is a sight to behold, with her compact buds now radiating deep purples and blues. The fading leaves add a touch of gold and burgundy, creating a gorgeous contrast.
• Maturity: Trichomes are nearing their peak, with a beautiful mix of milky and amber hues. The plant is exuding a rich, earthy aroma that’s both soothing and powerful.
• Notes: Moon Rock’s structure remains solid, with every bud dense and resinous. She’s almost ready to harvest, but we’re giving her a bit more time to fully mature and express her genetics.
2. Opium 🌸:
• Appearance: Opium has embraced the autumn spirit with a stunning display of fiery reds, oranges, and purples. The buds are heavy, covered in a thick layer of trichomes, and the leaves are curling into a final, beautiful farewell.
• Maturity: The buds are at their densest, with pistils mostly curled and darkened. The scent is intoxicating, with sweet and spicy notes filling the room.
• Notes: Opium is reaching her final form, with the fade adding to her allure. She’s almost ready to give up her bounty, and we’re closely watching the trichomes to catch the perfect harvest moment.
3. Big Demon 💪:
• Appearance: Big Demon continues to dominate, with her towering colas still swelling and gaining density. Her leaves are just beginning to show signs of fade, with a mix of deep greens and light yellows starting to emerge.
• Maturity: She’s not quite there yet, still pushing out new growth and adding weight to her massive buds. The trichomes are mostly clear, indicating that she’s got more to give before she’s ready.
• Notes: Big Demon is the reason we switched to 12/12, and she’s proving to be worth the wait. Her potential is enormous, and we’re excited to see how much more she’ll develop in the coming weeks.
🌟 The Beauty of the Fade 🌟
This week, the grow room has become a canvas of color, with each plant expressing its own unique fade:
• Moon Rock: Deep purples and blues with a touch of gold.
• Opium: Fiery reds, oranges, and purples, creating a warm, autumnal palette.
• Big Demon: Still mostly green, but with hints of yellow signaling the beginning of her fade.
The fade is not just a visual treat—it’s also a sign that the plants are nearing the end of their life cycle. As the leaves lose their chlorophyll, they reveal the hidden pigments underneath, resulting in the stunning colors we see now. It’s a reminder of the natural process of life, death, and renewal, all happening within the grow room.
🌟 Environmental and Nutrient Strategy 🌟
We’re continuing with our tried-and-true strategy:
• Water:
• TDS: 400 ppm
• pH: 6.2
• Temperature: 18°C
• Grow Room Conditions:
• Temperature: 30.3°C
• Relative Humidity (RH): 51%
The Lumatek Zeus 465 Compact Pro LED is still our powerhouse, providing the perfect light spectrum for these final weeks. The TrolMaster Hydro X controller keeps the environment stable, ensuring that the plants have everything they need to finish strong.
🌟 Reflecting on the Journey 🌟
As we approach the end of this run, it’s amazing to see how far the plants have come. From tiny seeds to these magnificent, flowering beauties, it’s been a journey of growth, learning, and appreciation for the magic of cultivation. Each plant has its own story, and the fades we’re witnessing now are like the final chapter of a well-written novel.
🌱 Next Steps 🌱
• Monitoring Maturity: We’re keeping a close eye on the trichomes and the overall appearance of the plants to determine the perfect harvest window.
• Final Feed Adjustments: We’re starting to consider a flush for the plants that are nearing harvest, ensuring the smoothest, cleanest smoke possible.
• Harvest Preparations: With harvest just around the corner, we’re getting everything ready for a seamless transition from plant to drying room.
Thank you for following along on this incredible journey. The finish line is in sight, and we can’t wait to share the final results with you all!
Happy growing, and may your gardens be ever green! 🌿💚

Week 16 began yesterday, but the first watering of the week was today. I’m keeping up with the flush, starting the 2nd week today. Hopefully I’ll be able to harvest in a few days.
My Trio is looking really lovely. Their buds are covered in trichomes that glisten under the lights. They are starting to darken in color in some areas like their mother did. They may take on some pinkish/purple hues before it’s all done. Some of their leaves are turning purple as well. The sugar leaves are somewhat dark, but still green. All three of them are very nice to look at, and their smell is super strong! It’s really nice in my grow room!
Yesterday I went out and got some more of those support sticks from the local home store and provided support for all of the branches that needed it. Which was a lot! I got 7 new support sticks and used them all. All of the branches are now supported and flourishing!
Today each of my girls received a gallon of properly pH’ed water, and each had a sufficient amount of runoff from which to gather measurements. The process went as follows:
C1 & C2 had an initial pH of 6.9, and C3’s initial pH was 6.8.
I added .2ml of pH DOWN to each gallon which adjusted the pH to 6.4 for C1, and 6.3 for C2 and C3. TDS going in was 88 ppm for C1, 86 ppm for C2, and 84 ppm for C3.
Runoff measurements were a little weird. The runoff pH for C1 was 5.9. The TDS was (at first) 600 ppm. I thought that was an incredible drop from the other day, so I did it again. It was 603 ppm the second time. Ok, moving along nicely! The runoff for C2 was pH - 5.8, and TDS was 1101 ppm. 😳 That’s a lot more than C1. C3 had a pH of 5.6, and TDS of 1212 ppm. Which is even more; so I measured a little more from C1 again, and the 3rd time it measured 736 ppm. 🤔 That seems weird to me, but I’ll keep an eye on it. If it continues to be that low then I will end up harvesting it before the others which won’t be so terrible. I’ll just have to wait and see.
The temperature in the tent was 81F, and humidity was 47%.
My ladies are looking lovely and growing better than I could have hoped for. This grow has been awesome, but I can’t wait to be done.
Happy growing everyone!
27 Oct 2021
Feeding/flushing time again! I was somewhat perplexed the other day when I got the runoff reading for the TDS in C1. It was 500-600 ppm less than C2 & C3 respectively. Since I was having some issues with the TDS meter I thought that IT may be the cause. I made a note to check on it today, and there seems to be no problem with the TDS meter at all. Keep reading for details.
My plants are still looking as lovely as I could ever have hoped for! C1 has started showing more color changes than the other 2, and the only thing I can say the difference is, is that I defoliated some of C1’s larger fan leaves last week, and wasn’t able to do the same for the other 2. That is the ONLY thing I can think of that has been different between all 3 plants this entire grow. Regardless, all 3 plants are looking wonderful!
Today each of my lovely ladies received a gallon of property pH’ed water with an expected amount of runoff for testing. The preparation went as follows:
C1 & C2 had an initial pH of 6.9, and C3 was at 7.0.
I added 0.2ml’s of pH DOWN to each gallon which adjusted the pH of all 3 gallons to 6.3.
TDS going in for C1 & C2 was 85 ppm, and C3 was 84 ppm.
Runoff levels were different for all three plants. C2’s runoff pH was 5.7, and TDS was 1041 ppm. C3’s pH was 5.6, and TDS was 1059 ppm. Last time C1 was significantly lower than the others, and I thought that maybe it was a TDS meter issue. Evidently it wasn’t. C1’s TDS today was 526 ppm! 😳 still much lower than the others, and pretty much ready for harvest.
The temperature in the tent was 81F, and humidity was 43%.
Although harvest time is much closer, I don’t believe it will be done in time for this month’s grow diary of the month contest. So sad, but that’s life.
Happy growing everyone! See you again soon.
29 Oct 2021
Today is the last day of week 16. I was planning on continuing the flush today, but remembered something that I had forgotten about….
I remembered the branch that had broken off of C1 back on October 10th in week 14. She had held on for well over a week in a can of water, but finally her leaves started to droop. I hung it up all by itself in my small tent to dry. Until today that is!
I took it outside and trimmed it on my deck. Even outside, in a pleasant breeze, the amazing smell of this branch was easily detected. It’s kind of windy, rainy, and chilly here today, but still …. That sweet blueberry muffin smell was there.
Her buds; still covered in the dried, crystallized trichomes were super sticky! I must admit that they are the stickiest buds I have grown to date.
I weighed the dry bud to add to the grand total of C1’s harvest later. Then I ground it up and smoked it.
All I am going to say is that from my reaction to smoking it; I have decided that no additional flushing is needed. After all, what I smoked today broke right before I started flushing, and I could taste nothing other than what I would hope to taste.
So my fellow Growmies; I am ending this week right here. The next report you will see will be the harvest report!!
Stay tuned!

There was a change of plans this week I got in 5 clones of an exotic strain I've been trying to get for a few months finally the guy gave in lol. I switched most of my plants to the flower tent to make room for my new strain. I decided to try and make fem. Seeds with 2 of the ladies ( og kush and gg#4) Using colidal silver. Feed plants my first compost tea I've ever made plants seemed to love it. My gg#4 in the dwc is growing like crazy she's catching up to it's mother she also got thrown into flower.

*****Week 14 growth – March 6 to 12, 2021 – Week 5 flower ******
These girls are certainly different from one another. Pheno 1 has a more bushy appearance and Pheno 2 is lighter in color and more bud swelling at the tops. Expect to see some nice colors come out in #2😃 In the end......it’s about the smoke😂👍🔥
Bud Fusion being introduced this week. Into the last phase of feeding during flower now. Nitrogen is continued to be reduced as its late flower. Keeping up the feeding ppm this week as we are getting to the end. May be pushing them a little more than I should but finding out how they react for next run.
Still continuing to play with the light intensity and seeing how the girls react to my environment conditions when pushed harder. Could have backed off and stayed with 100, 300, 600, 900 PAR levels at the different stages but I have trying to go a little higher in the late stages and going over 1,000 PAR.

Added in a fifth Zsweet Inzanity clone that I had growing on the side from the original 6 clones.
Slight defoliation around the base of the stems, so far the plants haven’t been too bushy.
Plants still have signs of a magnesium deficiency so I will wait 1 more week until I switch to flower. This will also give the plants a few more days to full up the gaps in the ScrOG net.

Whats up?
sorry for no post last week, I had dengue. feeling much better now but plants sure suffered a bit trought the week, ran out from nutrients and did not have the strength to care for them. Gladly, I had some assistance with my own health issues, so the little energy i had i spent on training the girls and watering them, as you can see there was a deficiency that led to some bleaching and discoloration of new growth and old, water levels started to change and it stabilized in 145 PPM and 6.1 pH.
I was worried about not giving them anything to eat, but when i spoke to Howweedgrow about it, he recommended me to only water them without nutes, although i think he did not read my message properly as he answered with a "its better to water them than not at all", when my original question was in regards of making some food without FloraMicro (the ONE nutrient i ran out of), luckily i was able to get some and in 5 days time it arrived.
Firls looked like this for the week
Lvls in bucket where as follows:
EC 283 uS/cm
TDS: 141 ppm
pH 6.02
Temps 23.3 C 73.9 F

Notes 📝
It's not been a good week. Had some family time last week and unfortunately caught covid with all the symptoms. I've been bed bound since Monday and today I'm starting to feel slighty better. Not asking for sympathy 🤣 but this explains why some of my girls have switched on me...
Looks like all 3 Frosted Biscotti have gone into reveg. Obviously have a light leak but think I've sorted it now. The mystery is just well under feed as I've run out of Bloom and big Buds and its also gone into reveg. The other coco ones haven't gone into reveg and almost look done. Biscotti Mintz and Bahama Bussdown look 🔥 well impressed. The mutant Biscotti Mintz (soil) has come along nicely and looks amazing. I don't get why that hasn't revegged as its surrounded buy the others that have. The 2 at the back, (Bahama Bussdown) ones taken a slight knock and revegged and the other one has just got to heavy and collapsed. Again looks near enough done so now need to think of a plan of action for curing as tent will be occupied for at least another month. So I think that's it with the problems 🤣 ..
Apologies again for not getting back to anyones dairys over the last 2weeks. I'm going to spend the weekend catching up with you all and sorting out the tent as long as I'm covid clear. My partner has been doing so much for my son and I I couldn't ask her to maintain the tent aswell. She did give them a water but no nutrients 🙈 half effort still wins my heart ❤️

Moin moin an alle, immer noch nicht viel los gibt immer noch nur Wasser (ohne Ph Regelung) Pflanzen sehen ganz gut aus finde ich.
Anfang der Woche hab ich gleich mal das netzt drauf geschmissen und über die Woche angefangen ein zu weben dabei ist mir am 14.02 leider einer der spitzen der Seiten äste abgerissen naja halb so wild wächst ja weiter..... Hab mich am 14.02 auch dazu entschieden ein wenig zu entblättern unterm netzt für etwas mehr Licht habe allen 4 Ladys exakt 6 Fächer Blätter entfernt also insgesamt sind 24 Blätter raus geflogen aus dem Zelt (ich Weiss, ich muss nicht mit zählen) habe die größten Blätter mal fotografiert und auch mit hoch geladen aus Langeweile. Hoffe euch geht es allen gut bis nächste Woche........ Cu ihr growmies

Looking okay, the highest leaves are burning quite a lot, but I’m not worried a lot as the buds are forming nicely. I’ll be feeding a little less from now on as she doesn’t seem to need a full dose every watering.

I just fed for the last time a few days ago. I can tell she is getting ready because she is not drinking anymore. I think I will flush and let the soil dry then I will chop. She will be down by the end of February. I can't wait....this is the first photo I have ever grown. And I think I am stuck!!! She took about 5 or 6 weeks longer than the autos I've been growing but she is going to give me twice as much, and her buds are rock hard. Can't wait to see how they are when the are dried and cured!!
