Sep 7: nice lemony smell happening and the buds are forming. Not a particularly fast flowering plant but it’s going good. Sep 8: got some time under the UV light this afternoon. Once the Blueberry Pie is done she’ll get more UV light hours but for now she has to wait her turn. Sep 12: cool nights starting to cause some purple colour. Nice smell to her, but really leafy and seems a bit slow. Watered with potassium silicate and cal-mag today.

This first week was setup preparation for grow an finally planting seeds in soil. I have had a lot of success with pre-soaking seeds in 50/50 hydrogen peroxide distilled water for 24 hours. Then planting directly in soil in the size pot they are staying in due to autos not liking transplant. Seeds were soaked for 24 hours and planted 1/4 inch deep in Fox Farms Happy Frog Top dressed with Ocean Forest in 5 gallon Fabric Dirt Pots I left them in the dark for 3 days then turned lights on 18/6 cycle five days later plants are starting to pop up Gorilla glue and Grapefruit are the first to start. Day 6 all seeds but one grapefruit germinated I expect by end of day today or tomorrow it will pop up started spraying seedlings with liquid seaweed diluted in a spray bottle. Trying to get more light having shipping trouble. Last grapefruit finally popped up day 7.

What an awesome thing to walk in on starting off week three all the girls were praying and just getting so fat, I really need to strip some fan leaves off the mom. They look great, the smaller cuts definitely aren't as good as the 4-6" cuts are, they were MAYBE 3-4" cuts and pretty small, but they are extras anyways so it doesn't matter, just seeing what they do. I'm excited for them to have all this space to stretch out when I pick up another light. Last day of week three and I couldn't be happier, I absolutely have to cut thicker clones , these smaller ones all got a bulbous base? Not sure what that's about but we will see how they develop. They are extras anyways but still nice to figure it all out.

Well I must be doing things right, for an auto this girl is doing really well. I’m still learning but will be growing more Bruce Banner. I’d soon rather have sativa but takes so much longer to grow. She takes all the nutrients I give and drinking more water this week, had to top her up a few times. PH is 6.4 TDS is right around 1000 Temp is 20c Humidity is 60-70

This was my first grow, so I was happy to get anything to harvest. Ended up with just about a half ounce of some pretty amazing bud. I initially started growing with Miracle-Gro, mainly because I'm dumb, which led to pretty bad nutrient burn and stunted growth around week 4. After some suggestions by the users here at GrowDiaries, I switched to Advanced Nutrients, and followed TaNgs EASY Auto Feeding Schedule that incorporated pH Perfect Sensi Grow Part A &B, Overdrive, and Carboload. My plant bounced back really well after this, but didn't add much growth. This was my first grow, and GSC was very forgiving and survived me messing up many times along the way. The final product smells and tastes delicious, and packs quite a punch. Very euphoric and uplifting feelings, with a moderate amount of dry mouth. I still have a few more of these seeds, so I'll probably be starting another grow in the near future.

Just finishing up the second week of budding here. The girls have grown a bit over the last few weeks and I've neglected to measure the heights and update them, the height in this diary is of the tallest of the 4. I'm really starting to see some bud development now, starting to really get excited about the results of this grow!

July 20: smoke arrived this morning to go with our heat wave. Awesome. Starting force flowering this evening. Will put plant in dark garage for 12 h darkness for a couple of weeks to initiate flowering. Already started flowering, but I really want to force it along to improve bud quality by having the buds ripen under stronger sun. In dark garage by 9 pm followed by 730 nm far red light and then out at 7 am. The far red light is a bloom booster because it initiates dark mode 2 h faster and is like getting a 26 h day. So, 10 h in garage plus 2 h from far red light is 12 h darkness and 14 h of daylight. Rock on. July 21: obvious stretch from overnight in the hot garage. Recorded as 14 h daylight with overnight temp listed as 24 C but it was easily 30 C when going into garage. Hot and smoky. Anyway, lots of misting and watering and seems to be doing great. Addded bloom nutes in top dressing at end of last week. July 22: still too hot but she’s still managing to grow. Now up to 40”. July 25: now 44” so four inches in three days. July 26: notably large stretch overnight probably grew another inch. This Blueberry Pie was always neck and neck with my other photoperiod, but she is pulling ahead in height now that flowering is starting. So far so good. Windy today and the plant was catching too much. Defoliated fan leaves in the middle so it’s not so much of a sail. Don’t really want o be removing fan leaves, but was best option. In ground or a bigger bag are not options so gotta make it work. Worth it to be able to move around in pursuit of direct sun. #seedsman420growoff #seedsmanseeds

These girls are exploding like the bomb seeds they are! Always a treat to grow any Bomb seeds in my experiences. I have grown Both Atomic and Widow bomb before and great seeds/genetics and amazing top shelf buds on massive plants. They are really blowing up now there roots are in the water and all 4 have been topped in prep for LST and there screens. I also installed my DIY reservoir cooler and wrapped my buckets in reflective insulation stuff to keep heat out and keep water cool. Will post some results when I test it more...

Raspberry Ripple Number One and Two (Flowering Plants) This week is the final week of Flower, I am noticing milky coverage on both plants and some amber trichomes as well. I gave the last watering today of distilled, dechlorinated water, with no P.H. Adjustments at 7.2 PH. I plan to harvest April 11th. Number One Pheno- The Number One Pheno is fully swollen and ripe now. The colas are densely stacked on the canopy. The foliage is quite over-faded, with some leaves being so dried out they crumble to the touch. I don't know if this is because the plant was in a bit too small of a pot or if my light was a little much these final weeks of flower. It is definitely ready for harvest! It's smells are still heavy in the raspberry candy department, with those hints of earthy leather on the back swing. Giving the number one pheno a very unique musk. The resin is greasy and plentiful! I can't wait to take this one down and trim it up to see how it looks in a jar! Number Two Pheno- The Number Two Pheno held out a little longer in its 5 gallon pot, it's a bit smaller of a plant. It's about 65% faded now but it's trichomes look finished! It's trichomes are very stacked out and coat this plant in a snow film! It may look a little boring next to its sister color wise, but it still sports some purple and pink hues under all the frost and I still think it'll be a worthy smoke as well! It smells of a raspberry wine but with that hazy fruity power. Almost like a strong mimosa strain. Clones- The larger clones in the 55 inch 2x2 MarsHydro veg tent, were starting to drink through water quickly! Mostly the larger number one phenos. Which would consume the entire dryback of their full pots in one day. I transplanted all the plants in the 55 inch tent into square pots (2 gallons for the Number 2 Phenos, 3 gallons for the Number 1 Phenos) this should hold them over for 3 to 4 weeks, so I can harvest and dry my flowering plants. I was unable to transplant the clones in the smaller Mars Hydro 30 inch Clone Tent, due to space constraints. I'll be feeding them worm castings and Down to Earth Crab Meal tomorrow. All the clones are looking healthy and look like they would be great candidates for flowering or mother plants. Tech Upgrade- This week I was able to purchase a Photobio Phantom Par Meter at a local grow shop's going out of business sale. With this tool I'll be able to get a dead on map of my light intensity and adjust accordingly. This will be great to have when setting up my new HLG Blackbird next cycle. I also got some 15 gallon grass roots fabric pots to try in the flower room next cycle. I also reached out to AC infinity and have an upgraded Cloudray S6 Gen 2 Oscillating Clip Fan on the way. My Gen 1 fan broke and would no longer oscillate correctly. AC infinity replaced it free of charge with the latest model. I think that about sums up this week! I'm very excited to take these plants down and begin preparing for next cycle. I was extremely lucky to get such amazing results of my first Pheno hunt. I can't thank Mosca Seeds and Tiki Madman enough for selecting such great crosses. It's hard to believe I got these two seeds as a freebie pack, with another order. I'm super thankful to have Grow Diaries to use and rely on for charting my week to week data, questions I have, and comparing my findings and results to other growers with similar strains, like @THCpapa grow of Raspberry Boogie! Thank you for checking out this week's entry of my growdiaries! See you for the harvest! -Starfish

I'm very happy to present you a strain that gives me chills just mentioning the name Tical. Zamnesia gave me this incredible surprise, a gift, and it brought me immense joy because I've known Tical since it was the title track on Method Man's album, the leader of Wu-Tang Clan - Shaolin - New York City, of course. I have all the records and could rap many songs from memory despite my poor American English. If you're a hip-hop fan, you know what it means, you know who they were, and you know how I feel right now. That said, Method put the name on some serious weed, they tell me, so let's try it: For now, I've put two that will be worked with different techniques—I think one with repeated toppings and one with a main lining—and then I'll put some to rise straight in a few days so they don't vegetate too much. Among the genetics, we have Zamnesia Apple Fritter, which absolutely drives me crazy (I love the apple flavors), and 24K Gold Fangs by TIcal, which is obviously new to us. All Tical strains, EUROPEAN EXCLUSIVES ON ZAMNESIA: https://www.zamnesia.io/it/35-semi-cannabis/745-tical The last thing I said worries me. Many plants have been overtaking my grow tent lately, so between fimming and the right amount of vegging, this time I have to keep them aligned, especially since I have a new in-line light that doesn't allow me to keep many plants staggered. You'll have to ask the reason for all this mega metabolism that makes us grow into very large plants at ---- www.plagron.com We planted in Bio LightMix soil and use 100% organic fertilizer. For now, we're only using: 1 ml/l Power Roots and 1 ml/l Pure Zym. The girls were born well; the youngest received a 24-hour timelapse video. Welcome to the world, girls! Good luck! OUR NECTAR DRIP TICAL X ZAMNESIA https://www.zamnesia.io/it/14243-zamnesia-seeds-x-tical-nectar-drip.html Zamnesia x Tical Description: Nectar Drip is a unique cannabis hybrid created in collaboration between Zamnesia Seeds and TICAL. These flowers are pure power, with a THC content of up to 26% and effects that stimulate the mind and stabilize the body. But if you want to try them, you'll have to hurry: only 750 packs are available! Considering one of the parent strains is Apple Fritter, you can be sure that Nectar Drip has inherited an explosion of fruity aromas and flavors. Notes of skunk are also detectable, making the profile rich and intriguing. When you smoke this beauty, you'll feel relaxed, with a pleasant cerebral buzz accompanying the experience. It's definitely a great evening smoke, perfect for when you want to take a moment to yourself. You know, you can find so much more at Zamnesia. I invite you to read and delve into the expertly detailed guides, illustrated with photos by me and @dogdoctorofficial. The rest is all the best nature has to offer... truly. www.zamnesia.com

Seid gegrüßt Growmies, Ich habe nur am anfang die ausgespülte Erde mit dem Dünger Gemisch feucht gemacht da ich sie wieder verwende wollte ich zur vorbeugend wegen meinem sehr weichen Wasser etwas calmag in die Erde. Die extreme Hitze und starkes LED Licht vertragen beide sehr gut nur B definitiv besser. Deswegen habe ich erstmal nur einen Samen pro Fas Version verwendet. Weil ich nicht gezielt Rücksicht nehmen wollte auf die strains und sehen wie sie bei extremen Situationen sich bewähren. *Update* leider etwas zu trocken geworden deswegen sind die blattspitzen leicht welk geworden. B hat noch genug Zeit sich zu erholen und anzupassen.

Another week gone for this plant and she’s took really well to the training implemented last week. Knuckled both of the main branches last week and kept the biggest branch tied down ans as you can see she’s shooting up from doing so. Should get few more tops now and bush out. She’s come on lovely these past few weeks after mowing munched on by slugs and I personally didn’t think would recover from it but I was so wrong! Ones she gets strong again from the knuckling I will tie all heads down to get more light into the middle. Next time down will give her some bio grow but this week shes had plenty of rain. Been ate a little by slugs so put some copper tape around stem to help keep them off. That’s all this week happy growing 🌱
