Another one down, now the tent can flourish. Already going into third week on the next flower cycle. Going to try a dry trim on this one. So far I've been doing wet trims, but I have more space this dry cycle. I've had chocolope a few times before, a few different phenotype expressions from the original seeds. I'll be curious to see if this is just like those previous chocs or if I will be able to pick out notes of whatever it crossed with. It definitely grew like chocolope I've grown in the past, very stretchy, long stretch time, genetically foxtailly. 8/12 getting ready to do a little test press on some larfy nugs that should be a bit dryer than the big nugs. In the bag, it smells just like Nam wah, but the plant 100% had the chocolope structure, except the buds were smaller than a choc for sure. I kind of attributed that to having an ec issue early flower, but maybe it was the Nam wah influence. Pretty crazy how the genes crossed like that. Wow. It got pretty warm here and we're letting the house breathe, so the tent is actually warmer during lights out daytime, than it is during lights out night. I like it, seems to make them grow faster and could potentially shorten flower time.

Highlighted a few breaks that I wasnt able to repai and a few that I was. I was a bit rough learning LST

Had some major deficiencies pop up but with some help from some top tier growers they were able to get me back on track.

Day 93 got the tent open to try keep the humidity down

Hello Fellow Growers, 👻 Boogie on to week 2 with exceptional amount growth. Both of these girls are coming off strong. Not sure if its going well or not for my plants, but hey for the looks of it they seem to be doing just fine. Started my first LST after it grew a couple sets of leaves. I was really scared attempting the LST on the Tangerine Dream. I thought I did more of HST than LST. Keep the advice coming dudes! I haven't reached week 4 yet so I am going to continue on with the normal feed of Cali-Mag, Wholly Mack, & Big Bloom. I noticed with the Wholly Mack, it lowers my PH content down to 5.0. Is this normal with this kind of product?

Hey folks a late week 3 update. Trying to even out the weight of each pot since they got watered unevenly due to the windstorm from last week. 2 pots did get watered fully while the other 2 only need a third of what the other two pots required. Lots of things happen this week. First application of neem oil spray, foiler and soil drench to prevent fungus gnats. 2tbsp per gal with a dash of non phosphate dish soap. Before the spray. I also topped/FIM the tallest branches along with hst and a heavy defoliation. I can already tell she's gonna be a stacker! Like I said earlier. 2 plants are doing very well and the other 2 are lagging behind 1-2 weeks most likely got damaged from the storm.

Week 9: Flower - The First Harvest & Final Countdown! ✂️🌿 THE BIG CHOP IS DONE! Gorilla Z #1 has been harvested, and we're officially in the drying phase. Meanwhile, the remaining ladies are marching toward their own finish lines. Gorilla Z #1 - HARVESTED! 🎉 She's down! After weeks of growth, recovery from overwatering, and pushing through to the end, this girl finally got the chop. Trichome Check: Mostly cloudy/milky (peak THC production ✓) A few amber trichomes starting to show Minimal clear trichomes Harvest Timing: Honestly? I was in a rush—ran out of flower to smoke! 😅 But the trichomes were in a good window, so it worked out. Sometimes necessity makes the decision for you. Could've waited for more amber for a heavier effect, but she was ready enough. What's Next: Drying phase begins now Aiming for slow dry (60°F, 60% humidity if possible) Then comes the cure—patience will be tested again! The Relief: Finally got some homegrown coming down the pipeline. The timing couldn't be better! Gorilla Z #2 - End of Month Finish She's still chugging along in mid-to-late flower. Based on her current progression, she should be ready by the end of the month. Current Status: Buds filling out nicely Still getting full-strength bloom nutrients Recovery from overwatering is complete—she's back to full health Feeding Schedule: Full strength General Hydroponics Bloom Trio Cal-Mag Liquid Kool Bloom She'll stay on this program for another week or two, then transition to water-only flush before harvest. Heisenberg - Two Weeks Out & Starting the Flush! 💧 She's in the final stretch! About 2 weeks away from harvest, which means it's time to transition to the flush. The Flush Begins TODAY: Water only from here on out No more nutrients Flushing helps the plant use up stored nutrients in the leaves and buds Results in smoother smoke and cleaner taste Why flush? Removes excess salts and nutrients from the medium Forces plant to metabolize stored nutrients Improves final product quality (smoothness, taste, ash color) The leaves will fade and yellow—this is GOOD and expected during flush Current Status: Buds are dense and frosty Loving the Spider Farmer tent environment Healthy and vigorous despite approaching finish Key Observations & Real Talk Harvest #1 in the books! There's something incredibly satisfying about chopping your first plant of the cycle. All the work, the stress, the learning—it all comes together in that moment with scissors in hand. The staggered timeline is actually perfect: Gorilla Z #1: Harvested (drying now) Heisenberg: 2 weeks out (flush started) Gorilla Z #2: End of month (~3 weeks out) This spread means I won't be overwhelmed with trimming and drying all at once. Plus, continuous harvests = continuous supply! Running out of smoke as motivation: Look, we've all been there. Sometimes the best harvest window is "I'm out and I need flower NOW." 😂 The trichomes were good enough, and that's what matters. The Home Stretch Strategy For Heisenberg (flush phase): Plain water only, pH'd to 6.5 Monitor trichomes closely Watch for fade (yellowing leaves = plant eating itself = good!) Start thinking about chop day in 10-14 days For Gorilla Z #2: Continue full bloom nutrients for 1-2 more weeks Then begin her flush Harvest late February For Gorilla Z #1 (drying): Hang dry in dark, controlled environment Check daily—don't rush it! Stems should snap, not bend, when ready for cure Then into jars for the cure (the hardest wait of all) Next Week's Plan Monitor Gorilla Z #1 drying progress (resist the urge to sample too early!) Continue water-only flush on Heisenberg Keep feeding Gorilla Z #2 full strength Daily trichome checks on Heisenberg as harvest approaches Prep trimming station and cure jars for upcoming harvests Start planning the NEXT grow! 🌱 We're in the final stretch! One down, two to go. The finish line is in sight, and the reward is almost here. 🏁🔥 First harvest complete. Drying tent smells AMAZING. The wait for cure is going to be brutal but worth it! 💚✂️

Sorry I havnt updated this diary in a couple weeks. I recently had a son and have been so busy. Anyways, this girl has really taken off. When I open my grow room it makes my whole house stink. Right now it's a very sweet skunky scent. She has filled out greatly and for a cbd strain I'm very excited about her resin production. Lately she has been getting a lot of water, slf100, em1, urb, fpj and a little bit of herculean harvest to supplement phosphorus. I havnt made any teas just in case, I didn't want to mess anything up late into flower. Make sure to follow me on Instagram to see more updates.

42 days of flowering, the girls are incredibly colorful and fragrant. Purple Punch X Do-si-dos is coming to an end and Zombie Kush will soon be smelling of flowers with a hint of lavender, two Strawberry Bananas are hopefully running out and the third Strawberry Banana is developing beautifully. I'm starting to have problems with the temperature in the house, I'm not drowning I'll hope ..! I love the colors of autumn and Purple genetics 💜👑

She throwing off some Phat buds!

Okay so im just impulsively training this plant. Cut a hole in a 7 gal pot and transplanted. The plant got stressed out from me working it through the hole in the side of the pot. She's recovering nicely. This might be a waist of time but I enjoy spending time in the tent 😎

What up Fam. Weekly update on these Orange beauties. They got a major defoliation this week, they needed it for sure as they're not the biggest so it'll allow the lower flower sites to mature better. All in all Happy Growing.

Great growth this week, I was able to train the two upper branches and remove the lower branches from the four main colas. The cross-shaped structure is now wide enough, so I can let the four colas grow freely toward the sun. It's still over 30°C during the day here, with only two hours of rain all week! We're experiencing record-breaking heat... There are still no signs of flowering. The pre-stretch should begin this week, and I expect the first pistils to appear within the next 7–10 days. In the meantime, Ill keep lightly cleaning up the lower growth and gradually increase the nutrient dosage. This Strawberry G is proving to be incredibly tough: not a single sign of nutrient burn or deficiency since day one despite a very basic substrate, no unnecessary stem stretch that would have made her weak, and no heat stress day or night that could have slowed her growth. So far, I'm very impressed with this third-generation strain!

Hello fellow growers, I haven't realized that is has been 2 weeks already so going into week 7 with the amazing bubblegun. There are quite some changes when you compare the pictures from two weeks ago it looks like there wasn't any defoliation done at all the tent is packed with big leaves and happy plants with the defect are still a little behind and are not as full as the others and the leaves look a bit weird but we will see what the fututre brings. No scrog netting this time but the next time i will use it again cause i like the way that it effects the plants growth. i lowered the lighting by about 20 cm's and i will do some defoliation in the following week no changes in the nutrients but starting next week im going to add Epic Blast the flower booster from hy-pro That is all for this update talk next week Cheers, Nibameca

Welcome growfessors to another episode of growfessor theatre, 4x4 edition! Flush time, just water for LSD, Green Crack and Mandarin dreams!! Do-si-dos gets another week of feed before flush. I'm very impressed with the bud sizes, trichomes and smell of each plant, mandarin dreams is especially ooozing with resin, it's almost like liquid soap touching your skin. The Mars-Hydro TSW2000 light has been killing it! This light delivers way more than expected! Thanks for stopping by growfessors, tune in next time 👽🌳💚

Отличный рост , ну а дальше все сами увидите на фото и видео . Радует душу , глаз и вскоре будет радовать тело :)

Esta semana ha hubo un notario cambio en las pequeñas! Se recuperaron muy bien, han empezado a comer bien y pegaron estirón! A partir de la proxima semana empezaran a comer mas i a acavar de crecer!

Fading……..

Past 2 weeks shes developed dense boulder shaped nugs that run all through out the plant. Today was first day of flush so 5 days ish I'll be harvesting this beauty. Perfect timing for the greenhouse seed company competition that I've surprisingly been giving the opportunity. Happy growing.

Hallo zusammen 🤙. Sie wächst sehr schön und macht keine Umstände.
