Sep 7: what a great plant. Totally love how it’s going. Flowers keep getting fatter and heavier and she’ll be done before the end of September. Sep 8: there a tree root sticking up a bit in my yard which means the plant can be tilted toward the late afternoon sun. This is helpful because the sun is getting really low to the horizon already and we’re down to 13 h of daylight. Plus now direct sun is done in my yard by about 6 pm. Indirect light is okay but you really want direct sun at all times. Videos shows use of 730 nm far red light at dusk. Just a few seconds is all it takes to set the plant into dark mode two hours faster. It’s a bloom booster because you get two bonus hours of darkness or a 26 h day. Very effective but don’t miss a night and you have to adjust the timing each night. When starting this on July 20 Civil Twilight, as listed on timeanddate.com for my location, was at 9:45 and today it was at 8:40 pm. The red light at dusk is a highly recommended trick if you have daily access to your outdoor plants. Also works indoors, of course, and on autos too. Also I think it helps ‘stabilize’ the plant by emphatically putting it into dark mode, and therefore less susceptible to stray light to cause a hermie. Have not had hermie problems in four seasons of using the red light so that is my only ‘proof’ but it is true so far, even with taking flash pics before using the red light. Sep 9: getting heavier and now more branches are weighed down and slumping against the scrog net. Nice problem to have, I know, and without the scrog net some of the branches would be breaking off now. She’s now officially too big and too top heavy to keep moving around the yard in pursuit of direct sun. Sun is much lower to horizon now and direct sun hours are dropping too. Sep 10: getting close to done and getting very top heavy. Awesome. Sep 12: raining today. Has been cool last few nights and some purple colour is just starting to show. I don’t want to overdo fertilizer near the end, but I decided she is showing K deficiency. I’m out of malted barley but I still have potassium silicate, so I used that and some cal-mag. I’m avoiding kelp and molasses or using more P at this late stage because that can make the dried bud hard to burn and that really sucks. So, potassium silicate and cal-mag it is. The potassium silicate raises the pH and it takes about the same volume of vinegar to get the pH down. A good does of acetate is likely good for the bugs in the soil too. Then a squirt of Dr Bronners soap as a surfactant and that also supplies some biodegradable carbon for the bugs in the soil. Seems to work overall and is cheap. Apologies for the large number of pics, but she’s so photogenic. 😎 #seedsman420growoff #seedsmanseeds

She's surprisingly short compared to Selena (Super Auto Lemon Haze) but her buds are turning out to be nice, purple, and covered in trichomes so far. Had to cut down the lights to 12-12 cause one of the other plants turned out to be a photoperiod. Sucks but it definitely saves me the electricity bill. As usual, looking forward to next week!

Ich habe erneut ein paar Bananen entfernen müssen. Ich hoffe das ich nicht allzuviele Samen im Endprodukt haben werden. Gegossen wird weiterhin nur mit Wasser. Der Herbst hält nun deutlich Einzug, ich denke innerhalb der nächsten 2-3 Wochen wird geerntet.

Been another week of crazy stretch for the sugar cane and apple sundae. Been supercropping several branches because they have maxed out my light height at over 4 ft tall. The slurricanes are looking much more manageable and it looks like the stretch is about over on all of them. I switched them over to maxibloom and added a little liquid koolbloom and Beastie blooms to start feeding those flowers. The room is definitely filled up now. just have to keep the juice pumping and see what they do.

En la semana 10 nos encontramos con una planta más fornida, con un sistema enfocado en alimentar y nutrir los cogollos, podemos ver que poco a poco las hojas se vuelven más pequeñas y la parte principal toma cada vez más fuerza aumentando el volumen del cogollo, seguimos con riego de 1.5 litros que a consideración de la maceta es poco, pero este cultivo siempre lo maneje a niveles de agua bastante limitados. Podemos notar que space cookies está un poco más delgada en tanto a masa principal a comparación de somango47, esto lo atribuyo a su condición de pythium adquirida en vegeta, pero su cantidad de flores no es menor. Los aromas predominan en el armario, más aun con su tamaño de 60x60, es como ir a un mercado de fruta jajajaja, por un lado somango mostrándose como una niña muy frutal y con algunas tonalidades cítricas con cogollos muy resinosos, Space Cookies por su parte con tonalidad más Tendiente al pino y frescura, algo más rocoso su aroma en comparación de somango. En lo personal estoy muy contento con el cultivo y en cómo se han desarrollado las niñas, es mi primer cultivo y estoy muy motivado y con conocimiento nuevo listo para implementar en mis próximos cultivos. Se despide Troll60x60.

🌸🍏✨🍭🌸🍏✨🍭🌸🍏✨🍭🌸 Hi and welcome to another Kannabia grow! This time I’m running their Apple Fritter (feminized photoperiod). She’s going to veg under 24hr light and be manifolded. Still cleaning the rest of my Candy Cream GF (11.04.25) — going to sow the seed tomorrow (12.04.25) *been lazy, sowed on 14.04.25 🌸🍏✨🍭🌸🍏✨🍭🌸🍏✨🍭🌸 --- 💭❗💭❗💭❗💭❗💭❗💭❗💭 ❗Events & thoughts worth noting❗ 💭❗💭❗💭❗💭❗💭❗💭❗💭 12.04.25 (GW1) – Cleaning + flushing the old coco coir. Might need to add another brick. *No new brick needed ✅ This is how I recycle my coco coir — fast, cheap, no BS. 🌿 Harvest plant ✂️ Chop roots small — they stay in for structure (organic perlite) 💦 Hot water rinse — remove salts & dust 🍶 Pre-soak with light feed:   Micro 10ml   Bloom 0ml   GreenBuzz 10ml   Cal-Mag 60ml   FFJ/FPJ 10ml (new disgusting batch)   pH down (citric acid) ♻️ Media stays — Roots stay — Back in service. 14.04.25 (GW1) – Planted seed in final pot ✅ 16.04.25 (GW1) – Did last tent clean up + setup ✅📸 17.04.25 (GW1) – Seed germinated 🎉📸 — roughly 48hrs in final pot. Solid start👌♥️ 23.04.25 (VW1) – Minimal burnt tips 📸 — not progressing, not a concern. 26.04.25 (VW1) – Started using the new batch of FPJ/FFJ https://growdiaries.com/diaries/266849-grow-journal-by-yan402 30.04.25 (VW2) – Increased TriPartMicro & GreenBuzzBloom 10ml → 15ml 03.05.25 (VW2) – Increased TriPartMicro again 15ml → 20ml, topped the plant, and added final layer of clay pebbles around the base, trimmed side branches and did LST in preparation for "manifold" 📸 08.05.25 VW3 finished manifold📸 13.05.25 VW4 Increased TriPartMicro to 30ml and GreenBuzzBloom to 20ml. 15.05.25 VW4 Done defoliation and LST 📸 18-19.05.25 VW5 pruned all the shoots bellow my "mains" and did a full defoliation📸 24.05.25 VW6 increased GreenBuzzBloom to 30ml 04.06.25 VW7 did a cleanup📸 11.06.25 VW8 increase TriPartMicro to 40ml 17.06.25 (VW9) – Final structure pass 💈🌿 Did a clean perimeter prune + removed weak shoots. Ended up with 12 tops, was aiming for less, but she made the call Didn’t fight it, just shaped it the best I could Airflow’s good, structure’s stable 🛑 No more cuts until post-stretch Pics coming shortly 😘 Flip coming soon — we’ll see how she handles it. 20.06.25 VW9 Switched lighting to 12 hours, may the stretch begin 🤞 22.06.25 VW10 Did a good LST session,made some pics, and came to some conclusions and a small change of plans: Originally planned for 8 mains — long, spaced colas and maybe a couple stronger “titans” if she wanted to go that way. But she’s showing me something else, and I’m not here to fight her — just guide her. Now after stretch, I’m keeping side shoots only if they: Fill real canopy gaps Don’t crowd neighboring tops (minimum 15cm spacing) Aren’t growing into walls or toward the next plant Anything too close, too low, or heading into shade gets removed. No point forcing it. Looks like I’ll finish with 14–16 solid tops, depending on how she settles. I’m just trying to give each one enough light and space to stack properly. No overcrowding, no larf — just letting her do her thing with a bit of structure. Increased Tri Part Micro to 50ml as well. 28.06.25 VW11 one week since I flipped to 12/12 and she is stretching nicely, a bit shy in showing pistils compared to the Fantasy Feast regulars I have in the same tent. 29.06.25 VW11 increased GreenBuzzBloom 30→ 60ml 06.07.25 FW1 TriPart Micro: 50→ 30ml TriPart Bloom: 0 → 20ml Home-made FFJ/FPJ (Watermelon + Pumpkin): 10 → 30ml 12.07.25 FW1 GreenBuzzBloom 60 →40ml, TriPart Bloom: 20 → 60ml, fpj 30→60ml 19.07.25 FW3 Got some bleached tops, been out and about at job interviews and didn't notice a last minute stretch spurt 😭, should recover fine though plenty of time left 😁 22.07.25 FW3 TriPartMicro 30→20ml , TriPartBloom 60→80ml , GreenBuzzBloom 40→50ml 24.07.25 FW3 Cal-Mag 60→40ml 26.07.25 got thrips but handled them with extra airflow and defoliation. 🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱 🌿 Day to day tasks & actions 🌿 🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱 26.07.25 FW3 – Fed 5l of #1 50% strength→ 2l runoff (*RUNOFF reused for tomato plants) 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 💧 Nutrients in 30L #1 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 💧 TriPart Micro: 10 → 15 → 20 → 30 → 40 → 50ml → 30 → 20ml (0.67ml/L) 🍶 TriPart Grow: 0ml (0.00ml/L) 💧 TriPart Bloom: 0 → 20 → 60 → 80ml (2.67ml/L) 🍶 GreenBuzz Bloom: 10 → 15 → 20 → 30 → 60 → 40 → 50ml (1.67ml/L) 💧 Cal-Mag: 60→40ml (1.33ml/L) 🍶 Home-made FFJ/FPJ (new batch): 10 → 30 → 60ml (2.00ml/L) 💧 pH Down: Citric acid (buxXtrade) 📦 TOTAL: 250ml per 30L 🔬 8.33ml/L 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 ⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️ ✂️ Tools & equipment ✂️ ⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️ ✂️ 2× MarsHydro SP3000 ⚙️ MarsHydro 150mm ACF Ventilator ✂️ Trotec dehumidifier (big unit) ⚙️ Mini no-name dehumidifier ✂️ Kebab skewers (LST – stainless) ⚙️ Wire + roast skewers (LST assist) ✂️ Scissors (HST) ⚙️ Vacuum (for spills & cleanup) ✂️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️ --- 🍏🍪🌬️🍬🍏🍪🌬️🍬🍏🍪🌬️🍬 Apple Fritter (Kannabia Seeds) 🍏🍪🌬️🍬🍏🍪🌬️🍬🍏🍪🌬️🍬 Species: 50% Indica / 50% Sativa Genetics: Sour Apple × Animal Cookies THC: Up to 25% Effect: Euphoric, relaxing, creative Flavor: Sweet, fruity, pastry notes Flowering: 56–63 days Resistance: High Indoor yield: 450–500g/m² Outdoor yield: 600g/plant Structure: Strong, bushy, dense buds

Decent Growth this week. No change to the feeding schedule. I started to notice fungus gnats towards the end of this week so I've added glue boards and have started bottom feeding. DE powder may be necessary if the problem persists.

I’ve tried everything for my second plant. Honestly just think it’s a runt. Will let it grow as much as it can and turn its buds into hash or something. I’m using 2ml Adam and Eve .6ml/L Lush .6ml/L 2ml/L rapture And a splash of H203 Main plant is looking excellent and very healthy. My other one is all burnt up, dry leaves and looks terrible. I’ve given up on it and will just let it do it’s own thing. Looks like I will get a very nice harvest off of just the one plant and it’s all for me. Will keep me happy while I grow another plant. My lights are 80% now Temps 24 at night and 28 with lights on Humidity 45-50%

Today I watered her with 1.5g de-chlorinated water with 5ml/g of Botanicare CalMag+ added, then ph'd to 6.2 @ 72℉. I turned her pot and plucked a couple of yellow shade leaves...the basic daily maintenance. 9/22- I didn't water her yesterday as she looked great and was 'praying' hard. Today she was given 1.5g of de-chlorinated water which was ph'd to 6.2 @ 72℉ which I gave her through her drip pan (bottom chuggin) and I also gave her pot a turn. She continues to pile on the trichomes and is taking on a exquisite purple hue to her flowers! She is definitely one of the most photogenic cultivar's I've grown, especially with her 'Triple Headed flower', and is looking lovelier by the day! 😍 9/24- We're getting close to wrapping up Week Six of flower in a couple of days, which will put her around two or three more weeks from finishing, with the most exciting weeks yet to come! I didn't water yesterday and today I went ahead and Top Dressed her with 2 tbsp/g Dr. Earth Flower Girl 3-9-4, 1 tbsp/g Dr. Earth Gold Premium 4-4-4, 1/2 cup Down To Earth Bio-Fish, 1/3 cup Down To Earth High Phosphorus Bat Guano and 2 cups of Worm Castings. I watered in the Top Dress with 1.5g of de-chlorinated water which was ph'd to 6.2 @ 72℉ and let her enjoy her meal! 😜 9/26- After her heavy watering on the 24th I didn't water yesterday and when I checked her today at 'lights on' and she still had some weight to her pot and her leaves were praying hard so I held off on watering today and will hit her tomorrow with her usual 1.5g watering. ~Thanks for stopping in! Things should be getting a lot more interesting in the coming weeks...Stay lifted and be Blessed! 😎🙏~
