9/17 Didn't know this was a new week or I would've taken more pictures. I'm glad I took those two plants. As it dries and I start to trim I could see where it could've turned to rot real easy. It rained enough last night to soak all the girls. The two bottoms I harvest look like the have pm on them. If so I'll wash it or through it in the concentrate bag. Found a few colas a dropped which will go in the concentrate bag. Scoping the toasted toffy and the event horizon and the both look AMAZING! I've scoped the others and I'm extremely impressed. They may be difficult to grow strains but they have high cannabinoid content. The sherb cream pie has really come to life and turned totally purple with beautiful flowers. The girl in the 50 has several soda can sized buds. I hope this weather holds up. I don't like flowers this size getting wet. The sativa leaning hydrid us the only one I may have trouble with. It's only in a 10 gal but it's enormous! If needed I coyld bring it inside at night. The buds look like cat tails. I'm used to growing indica dominant strains. Plant us super healthy though. I'll be intrigued jail for a while and I've gotta make contact with whoever is going to do my extracts. I'll keep this updated. It's a lot of work bur it's worth it. 9/18 WATERED EVERYTHING I GALLON BUT THE BOTTOMS OF THE 2ND EV AND THE TT WHICH EACH GOT A HALF. Since harvest I've noticed some pm spring up on the toasted toffy. Looking at the other event horizon through a scope the trichs are all milky with some amber. I'm just waiting for A LITTLE more amber. And for me to have time and or room. I decided to harvest the tops and majority of one of my event horizon and toasted toffy. Today during an inspection I found a couple grey mold branches and some botrytis on my big GMO on the back. This plant is done. It's by far the furyhest ahead. Septoria effected the yield a little but pistols were retracted and amber was at like 10%. I thought about it and I watched the plant next to it with the pm have a branch I supported just "slough off". Right in my face. I figured if there was a sign tjis was it. I cut that rot off and put the buds from the branch in a bag and froze them then I went around and harvested the limbs on the other plant that were furyhest along. I took about half of it. I could've taken more and maybe I should've but I'm tired. I also noticed a couple spots of grey mold on the plant in the 50. All the leaves were falling off. I finally scoped it and it was right whetr I wanted it to be. Looking at the colors I'm glad I spent so much time the past few days. That one I hung whole. The sherb cream pie has something eating the fresy shoots (probably ear wigs. But the buds are fattening and the trichs aren't quite there. I'm going to let the rest of this stuff go ad long as possible. With the exception of the other event horizon. I finally tried it. It's fucking killer. I could take that plant now. The only reason I'm not is because I have to much work on my husband's as is. I'll do some videos amd pictures but I'm tired as fuck. Got to try event horizon. Very fucking impressed! 9/19 The past 3 days I've been working 5 a.m. to dark. I went back and harvested the bottoms of the toasted toffy and event horizon 1. After injury from harvest they contracted wpm. I used this as a learning experience and put some away in the freezer for concentrates and used a peroxide and water bucket. That's what kills the p.m. anyway. I hung them and they spun in the wind. I blew them lightly with a leaf blower before putting them ok strings I had previously setup with a fan in front of it. I kicked ass today. Toasted toffy got sampled and did NOT disappoint. I had it in a jar though and it was green so I'm not counting this. I do have some dry. I have indoor left too. Like in the video that one GMO looks like it's fucking dying or something. I'd rather cut it and use it for concentrates if it effects my healthy plants. I just checked on that plant in the 50 I hung. It looks amazing under the scope and smells better. Decisions, decisions. I do have a few calls I should make sooner rather than later. We are supposed to be getting rain. 9/20 The past 3 days have been hard. The wife's medical stuff is acting up and I had to tend to harvesting a few. My whole body hurts. I even did my first bud wash yesterday! The ev and tt I took and left some buds on ended up covered in pm. So I decided fuck it and tried bud washing. I also froze some for extracts. Speaking of which I need to male contact with whoever I'm going with this year because I think I've reached the point of diminishing returns on that dieing GMO. When it comes to grey mold and botrytis I don't fuck around. Winds are really high today. Putting the scope to the sherb pie is making me second guess myself too. Oh well. It's not going to rain today. And if needed I can move them in the barn. If I get ahold of Mt processor I'll chop that GMO and bring it right there. The other thing is that I've got tons of weed and a lot of its hanging so I've gotta find someone that will do a batch of live rosin then like a elbow of dry. This is the best part of the year. We'll It's supposed to be. Cutting down good plants us bittersweet. I don't mind chopping that one gmo a little early though because it's close to hitting the point of no return. That little sativa dominant hybrid in the ten is HUGE! The buds are swelling like crazy too. It's got a COUPLE septoria spots but this thing is resilient and easy to move around. This will finish perfectly. So far I'm happy with what I have. I'm GRATEFUL. The two September plants I tried were GREAT. A 90/10 and an 80/20 and they both suprised me and got me exactly whete I wanted to be. I'll keep things updated. I did a video I'll upload. 9/21 Weather is still great and the buds don't even seem wet in the morning. The thing is is that something (rot or ear wigs probably both) have stripped lower interior branches. In some cases stripping them ENTIRELY or chewing the stem right off. It wasnt happening to my favorite GMO or the one in the 30 and the like on in the ten. The Sherb pie I noticed grey mold on 3 different branches. Last time I checked trichs it wasn't ready but I've got to get a handle on this mold/pests or it's going to he taken a little early. We have incliment weather coming Wednesday I think. I'll bring the 10 inside and if I have to I'll bring that perfect GMO in as well. I'm going to scope everything again today. I called a bunch of extractors for prices. I was going to do fresh rosin and just yank and drive but that is looking to be harder. I can get badder made CHEAP from a reputable lab. I think I'll do that. They prefer dry and that way I could through what's left from last year in there. I have this other one GMO that I've had the same issues with. I'm sick of removing bud rot or having to cut interior branches off due to pm. Tried toasted toffy and it was fucking amazing. I'm planning on trimmingvthe ev and if I finish I can bring the other one in. It's done. It's not getting any bigger. Trichs aren't changing. That GMO I am going to scope when I get home and it will be coming down in the next couple days. Otherwise I'll end up with half of what's there. The GMO I took the tops from is finishing up too. If I scope that and it looks decent and I have the time I'll take the remainder. I'm leaning towards doing at least a lb dry for extracts. I've got some frozen. I've got some hanging and most is still in the ground. I sleep on all major decisions. However, I know getting my nice buds soaked when I'm already losing shit to budrot and grey mold isn't the smartest thing. I'll probably take what I can and bring the others inside to keep them safe. I didn't think I'd have this much quantity. I knew quality would be good but this isn't a bad year quantity wise either. I'll keep this updated. 9/22 Busy as hell! Rain coming Tuesday. After a final check of the scope and the flowers and I took the GMO that all the leaves had fallen off of. That plant is going straight to extracts with the one in the thirty. I also "finished" harvesting that GMO that was furthest along. Trichs were getting amber. Been in trim jail. Was going to take the Sherb Pie but I'm not seeing amber yet. I did have to cut off some branches that had rotted. I'll keep an eye on it. It will come down when it's ready. It just sucks losing little bits of it. My favorite GMO is sooooo close to perfect. I should just take it but I'll wait. If we get rain I'll bring that and the sativa looking one in the ten is the barn. Back to work now. Before I forget what strain is what lol. 9/23 Still busy as fuck. I chopped the other event horizon amd hung it whole. It's DONE and it doesn't need to go through the rain storm. I also took the majority of the GMO early pheno. What's left will get plucked off and used for extracts. The big one in the 50 is getting dry. I have finished the event horizon and I'm not "finished" with the toasted toffy but I have it in 5 gal buckets with a food grade lid so u can at least cure correctly. The gmo is still hanging. I'm wondering whether I should wait it out or chop. I'm gonna take care of what I have inside first and hope that shit doesn't eat my plants or that it doesn't rot off. That perfect GMO has one branch with some grey mold. I might cut it off. I'll keep this

A big hello to all the cannabis growing gardeners...and all the other visitors that came across my grow journal. Just on harvest day I was summoned on a long quest...around 700 km. will be away for three days. I will update this diary as fast as i"m back. For now just the photos as no time for anything. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Now cannabis smell is overpowering in my grow room I can finally write something about Spider Farmers 6-Inch Inline Fan with Smart Controller and Carbon Filter :) As my grow room gets really stinky at times i always invest in a top shelf carbon filter almost twice the size of the one provided by Spider Farmer, to my shock Spider Farmer carbon filter absorbs the smells wonderfully well. No smell leaks and that just when the fan is running at 5 out of 10 levels of output. The smart controller is something completely new to me, and had a lot of fun experimenting with it during the veg and early flower, when the smell began i needed it to run full time at level 4 or 5 to rid the fragnance. All in all the whole combo is a great deal. If you are not as keen on technology the set without the controller is awesome on it's own. But to have some extra options open, the controller at the device throws at you a ton of settings you can use to optemiase you grow enviornment. The SE 7000 is hanged at 40 cm. over the canopy and runs at 520W. This whole grow's main sponsor is Spider Farmer. You can easily obtain all the great grow equipment we use at: spider-farmer.com A big thank you to Jessie and the whole Spider Farmer crew for supporting me with the newest technological advancements in horticulture. Thanks to them what i do here is possible. Thank you Zamnesia for giving me the opportunity to try out your stock. zamnesia.com/uk/7686-zamnesia-seeds-do-si-dos.html 20% discount code: ZAMMIGD2023 Plagron did send us their Contest package for the Power Buds competition . Thank you for your visit, please leave a like and hope to see you beck here in about a week.

esta semana seguimos doblando y podando alguna que otra ramita . Al parecer la nº1 ,la Triploide (tres ramas mismo nudo), que pasó a ser diploide (dos ramas mismo nudo) después de podar el primer apical parece ser que ha vuelto a Triploide y esto podria dificultar las otras dos ramas que van más avanzadas por lo que me decidí por cortar y así que siga diploide. A los 40 dias volví a podar los segundos nudos de cada rama dejándolas ahora si listas para pasar a floración en un par o tres de dias. más un agarre de las ramas a las macetas y así ir deshaciéndome de los dobladores , estos estan quedando pequeños. A los 41 dias me dió por cambiar de posición la nº2 y ponerla en el lugar de la nº1, la triploide. La nº2 está creciendo algo más vigorosa que las otras dos y la nº1 va por el camino de quedarse algo más enana. La nº3 seria un intermedio.

? Black Diamond – Plant B Week 3 | Vegetation 8×8 Adventure – 12/12 From Seed Another exciting week in the 8×8 Adventure! Every plant in this project is being grown using the 12/12 From Seed technique, allowing each phenotype to express its natural structure while remaining compact and efficient. Plant B of Black Diamond is beginning to reveal its own personality, showing strong apical dominance, excellent vigor, and beautiful structural symmetry. The goal of this project continues to be documenting every phenotype individually, following its complete journey from seed to harvest while using the Plagron nutrient line throughout the entire grow. ⸻ 🌱 Grow Conditions • Week: 3 (Vegetation) • Height: 17 cm • Light Schedule: 12/12 • Day Temperature: 27°C • Night Temperature: 25°C • Relative Humidity: 55% • CO₂: 666 ppm • pH: 6.0 • EC: 1.3 • Solution Temperature: 20°C • Root Zone Temperature: 21°C • Pot Size: 15 L • Daily Water: 1 L Feeding * Terra Grow – 1.8 ml/L * Power Roots – 1 ml/L * Pure Zym – 1 ml/L * Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L * pH Plus / Lemon Kick as required ⸻ 🌿 Weekly Development Plant B continues to impress with its vigorous and balanced development. During this third week, vertical growth accelerated while maintaining short internodal spacing, creating a compact but well-structured plant that looks perfectly suited for the 12/12 method. The main stem has thickened noticeably and is already showing excellent strength. Side branches are emerging evenly from every node, indicating that this phenotype should build a very uniform flowering structure over the coming weeks. The newest growth is vibrant lime green, gradually darkening as the leaves mature, while the larger fan leaves remain a rich healthy green with no visible signs of nutrient stress or deficiencies. ⸻ 👀 Structural Observations One characteristic that immediately stands out on Plant B is its strong central leader. Unlike some phenotypes that naturally spread laterally early on, this individual seems determined to build a dominant main cola while simultaneously producing vigorous secondary branches. Node spacing remains pleasantly tight, giving the plant a compact architecture without becoming overcrowded. As more side shoots develop, the canopy is beginning to fill naturally while maintaining excellent airflow through the interior. Stem diameter has increased considerably compared to last week, suggesting the root system is becoming well established inside the 15-liter container. ⸻ 🍃 Plant Health Health this week has been excellent. The leaves remain flat, fully expanded and symmetrical, with strong petioles supporting each fan leaf. New shoots are developing quickly from every node and there are no signs of nutrient burn, deficiencies or environmental stress. The feeding schedule appears to be matching the plant’s demand very well, supporting vigorous growth while keeping the foliage clean and healthy. ⸻ 📸 Photo Notes This week’s photographs clearly highlight the symmetrical canopy developing from above, while the side profile showcases the increasing stem thickness and vigorous branching beginning at every internode. Close-up images of the growth tip reveal rapid vegetative expansion and healthy leaf formation, confirming that Plant B is transitioning smoothly toward the next stage of development. ⸻ 🔜 Looking Ahead With the root system now well established and the structural framework taking shape, the coming week should bring a noticeable increase in both vertical growth and lateral branch development. As flowering approaches under the continuous 12/12 schedule, it will be fascinating to see how Black Diamond Plant B balances stretch with bud site formation. Based on its current architecture, this phenotype has the potential to produce a well-organized canopy with multiple productive flowering sites. Growers Love and see you all ext week 🙏

Day 69 (March 6th) Just gave everyone their last watering. I’m going to harvest and wash everything tomorrow night on day 70. I‘m not going to do that whole 48 hours of darkness thing because I didn’t see a difference last time I did it. In fact, it made my plant under watered before drying which caused it to dry too fast. Slurricane and cheese will be washed with h2o2 and the rest will just be rinsed off in warm RO water and hung up. Before and after washing I’m going to go over each branch with a flashlight and make sure there is no dog hair or debris in or on the buds. I will be drying in my spare bathroom (that no one uses!) from hangers. Aiming to keep it around 60-62F and 50-60 RH. Hoping for that 10-12 day dry. I wanted to do a full plant hang but the tent got pretty dirty and I would feel more comfortable just cutting and rinsing everything off branch by branch. I’m going to try my best to keep the full plant intact. Got my humidifier hooked up and running RO water because with tap water it deposits calcium and lime all over the buds and walls. For air flow I’m just indirectly running a small usb fan. I’m not worried about air flow in the bathroom honestly. It stays nice and breezy down there anyway. Got the food grade peroxide and RO water to wash up the slurricane and cheese. Everything except for the cheese and garlic#1 is looking more than done. Trichomes all look pretty well done. Some of them have even burst open. Smells are all super ripe and mature too. Can’t wait to smell each individually in jars. Next week I will recap what went wrong and what I will do differently next time to keep it from happening again. (Day 70F) Just got everything chopped, washed and hanging. The vast majority of the PM was washed out but I can still see very small amounts. When they dry out I can shake the branches a bit to get the rest off. At very least it’s sterile now. There is no question I lost some potency while washing but the amount is negligible for a much cleaner product. I could see lots of dirt and other debris float to the surface of the water after being washed. And no those are not trichomes, those sink to the bottom. I could put that nasty water through a bubble bag and wouldn’t get all that much. Although it probably does remove a lot of the actual trichomes heads. I’ll have to check with the microscope. Everything is rigged up for a nice slow dry. Temp is sitting at 64 and RH is at a nice 60%.

The plant was freshly defoliated this week, opening up the canopy and exposing all major bud sites to better light and airflow. Stretch is nearly finished and the structure looks very even, with strong, upright branches and well-spaced internodes. Early purple coloration is already visible in the calyxes, confirming a nice expression of the Banana Purple Punch genetics. Overall the plant looks healthy, stress-free, and ready to start stacking buds over the next weeks.

Hey everyone! Week 10 is here! (or 5th of flower) 😁 Both of my girls look like they are really close to being ready! (or they are already ready!) 😍 and I could chop them right now but I want to wait a bit more so buds can get a little bigger. This is because I forgot flower is shorter in autos and I delayed the doses a bit too much 😞. I hope this week's full dosage will help my babies to get her buds a little bigger 🙏 and next time I'll be more aware of this as I completely missed it. My goal is 70%/30% amber trichomes and I believe I still have some time for that! Besides what I mentioned earlier, this strain is amazing. They've responded quite well for all the defoliation I've done to them which is no small feat on an auto! 💪 Anyway, that's all for now. See you all really soon in my next update! It should be up soon! Bye! ;D

Nov 29: They seem to be accelerating in veg growth but I see a small portion of the leaf on the smaller plant either grew in mutated or somthing cut it, I haven’t seen a single bug in the box so I don’t think it’s that but you never know, and the bigger plant has some issues near the base of its stem, I noticed it before I did the LST and now I’m wondering if I should have addressed that issue before starting the LST. Let me know what you guys think! Dec 2: Walked into the room and noticed a faint smell, wasn’t any smell last night when I started the LST on the slower girl. Further inspection showed some white pistols on the bigger girl, I believe she is the culprit for the smell as the other seems about a week behind. They are both now LST‘d and leaf tucked. Enjoy the pics and vid’s! Dec 6: I have tied down some of the longer chutes on the bigger plant (will see in week 5 update) to create more airflow and light penetration as I didn’t even realize how bushy the stem and node sections had gotten. I have also cut the chutes coming off the first true leaf. I don’t think I will make any cuts to the smaller one as it’s already a slower growing pheno. Going on a trip starting the end of week secede to late week 8, so I have a automatic feeder coming from Amazon, and I will continue using it through flower to reduce open tent time.

Bewässerung: 2000 ml jeden 2 Tag in der achten Woche pH-Wert: 6,3 EC-Wert: 1.9 mS/cm Temperatur: 30ºC Luftfeuchtigkeit: 55% Schädlingsbekämpfung: im Moment haben wir keine Anzeichen das es was zu bekämpfen gibt, sobald die ersten Anzeichen da sind werden wir handeln :), aber zur Sicherheit haben wir wieder ein paar Raubmilben an die Pflanzen gehenkt. PPFD: 600 µmol/m²/s DLI: 38 mol/m²/Tag Düngemittel: Sie bekommt CalMag von BioBizz zu Prävention. Ab Tag 13 haben wir angefangen sie mit einem Mineralischen NPK Dünger (NPK 10-4-7) zu Gießen. Ab Tag 39 haben wir angefangen sie mit einem Mineralischen NPK Dünger (NPK 3,5-6-6) zu Gießen, Plagron wurde auch hinzugefügt. Besonderheiten: wir versuchen bei diesem Grow Effektive Mikroorganismen aus. -Tag 49 Heute wurde sie mit mineralischen Dünger gegossen -Tag 51 wir haben ihr wieder etwas Dünger gegeben und den Runoff gemessen und er ist leicht erhöht 2.6 mS/cm 😱 -Tag 53 heute hat sie nur Wasser bekommen, wieder Runoff gemessen 0.62 mS/cm 😌 -Tag 55 Mac 1 hat heute wieder etwas Dünger bekommen, so ungefähr 3 Wochen hat sie noch

Entering final week of major stretch, these plants have been a pleasure to grow so far, and my overall setup has been performing pretty flawlessly. Excited for the weeks to come, tho another longer trip away from the plants looms in the future (🎅🏻). Hopefully i can dial in a temporary auto watering system for then. Just did a light defoliation so i can leave them unmolested for the week - mainly took off leaves brushing against the forming pistils. These plants grow like weeds no doubt, branches out of branches out of branches. Temps and runoff a little high but overall a smooth start to the flowering stage i would say.

End of week 6- start of week 7- Plants are looking beautiful it’s about to be an amazing crop the biscotti mintz is still my favorite but a couple of the GMO Punch pheno’s are definitely starting to warm up on me along with the Cookies USA and their fat ass buds ! Honestly can’t wait till the day I can get a bigger space and follow my dreams ! I could grow weed the rest of my life ! I’ve been strain hunting for 2 strains I want to keep and I’ve already got one (Biscotti Mintz) hopefully soon I’ll find number 2!

I have just been giving her plain water the past few feedings and am planning on harvesting her on tuesday which will be day 67 from seed which is very impressive . I think grown in coco under the spider farmer it would probably be even quicker , also finally a strain that has lived up to its name and actually gone purple whoopee. I am looking forward to trying this when its dried and cured !!! . This seems to be an awesome strain and I am very impressed with the size and density of the buds and the growing time

Something wrong happened on the end of last week. I had a little irrigation problem and I did a m mistake with the fan’s position, it was too direct on the roots. I think this could have caused a block to the nutrients transmission. I will give just water with regulator ed enzym+. Let’ a see

Just about ready for her final home in the 3 gallon.. just waiting on a little bit of a dry back, I find better success of transplanting right about as a plant needs to be watered so that the medium doesn't fall apart and take the precious roots with it ✌️

Week 2 for the solo Afghani went smooth. Looked a little slow to develop her first proper set of leaves, but the root development should help speed up her progression. Still feeding off the slow release 444 and is now regularly drinking about 2oz of water every other day. I also spritz the bottom of the outer cup to keep moisture levels high for stretching roots. She's about 36" from the light. Hoping to get a little stretch to make training easier. Added a couple new pics to get the week caught up. Stay tuned, week 3 starts training.
