02/07 Nachdem wir in eine neue Woche starten, kann ich auch im Zelt wieder aufatmen. Die Temperaturen fallen, nachdem das Wetter in Regen umgeschlagen ist. die letzten Tage hatten wir bis zu 39°C draußen und dementsprechend musste ich die Lampe runter regeln und die Lüftung bis ans Limit arbeiten lassen. Phasenweise hatte ich 30,8°C im Zelt. Mittlerweile konnte ich die Lampe schon wieder etwas nach oben regeln und ich halte ungefähr 28°C. Heute gab es auch wieder eine kleine Ladung Eiswürfel. - - - - - - - - - - - - - 03/07 Heute gab es eine Ladung Dünger. Gemischt aus Wurmhumus und Herbi‘s Booster. - - - - - - - - - - - - - 05/07: Um das Purplen ein wenig zu unterstützen, habe ich heute eine Ladung Eiswürfel auf den Mulch gelegt. So triggert das kalte Wasser die Wurzeln und setzt im besten Fall die Anreize (durch die Produktion von Anthocyanen (pflanzliche Farbstoffe)), lila Blätter oder Blüten hervorzubringen.

11.10.21. Банана перешагнула черту в 6 недель. 2 й день как включён режим 12/12. Из трех растений, банана меньше всего хочет расти вверх, но кустится на уровне. Мне очень нравятся темпы развития в этом цикле. Полет продолжается. Всем спасибо за ваше внимание!! Не стесняйтесь комментировать, как хвалить, так и критиковать. До скорой встречи! 15.10.21. 5 дней 12/12. Полет нормальный 🚀

It was fun growing Critical+ 2.0 and really recommend it for any new grower who would love to experience his first smoke from his personal garden

Sep 6: the bud type seems a bit disappointing. Likely just this particular phenotype but she is not really forming normal looking buds. Whatever, the smell is very nice and there will be enough mass and potency for extracts. Sep 7: added a final round of malted barley and Power Bloom. Sep 12: don’t take flash pics of your plants unless you follow up with a far red light to put them into dark mode. Otherwise you run a higher risk of hermies.

Day 117. Trim jail and heavy upload session for 24 hours at least. Don't like to keep photos, so ill upload each plant separately and will delete them. Phone camera is still cracked and off-focus, but they are all nice ! Day 121. Made even bubble hash, if Runtz was white and brownish when dried, Kalini Asias bubble went a bit redish/pinkish/brown after drying, you can easy see difference in colour between Kalini and Blue Dream in photo. Kalini + Blue Dream ended up in 14 g of bubble. Runtz made about 5, smoked it too quick to weight even ;) nice buzz and taste ! Day 128. #3 85, #2 87, #3 68. Buds are nice and closer to dense side, but again result was far from my expectations. This strain is really good, have just find the way to make her bulk, better lolitoping maybe ? .... Lost, but this strain is really really nice by taste and how she grew. Happy Growing !!!

Day 85 25/09/24 Wednesday Feed today using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6 only. Day 87 27/09/24 Friday De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 with Plagron PK13-14 today. Picture and video update 😎 Day 89 29/09/24 Sunday De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 only today. Will start only water next week 👌💚 pictures 😁 Day 91 01/10/24 Tuesday (End of Week)

Sorry for the Massive gap in the diary. I got sidetracked by life . The purple punches are now in full flower. Around 24-30 inches tall . Currently enjoying a 36 degree heatwave. Purple hints of colours now showing on the leaves. Foliar fed today and top dress fed supersoil nutrients

So Leute, in meinem Experiment sind nun zwei Weibchen ausgesucht worden, welche den stärksten Wuchs ausgeformt haben. Eine davon (rechts an der Zeltwand) wirkt besonders Homogen. Nach dem Topping wachsen die Triebe nun Recht gleichmäßig. Bei der anderen, dauert es noch ein bisschen länger, da Sie an sich zwei Tage Jünger ist (vermute ich einmal.) Sie war auch im Höhenwachstum etwas kleiner, da sie auch in einem kleineren Topf war. Die Pflanzen wachsen sehr schön und gleichmäßig. Und der Dünger von Weedefix legt auch ordentlich was hin. Ich werde diesen jetzt zusätzlich zur Anwendung einer Livingsoil hinzufügen um das Potenzial der Erde um ein weiteres zu erhöhen. Den die ganzen Bio Stimulanzien und Bakterien unterstützen die Livingsoil zusätzlich. Ab nächster Woche kommen die Ladys unter das Scrognetz. 🥦💚

🌌 Cosmic Noodles — Week 7 (12/12 from seed) Reading the plant, not the panic First of all — welcome to everyone new joining the diary. Quick recap below so nobody has to dig through old reports to understand how we got here. This is a 12/12 from seed run, which means there is no clean, universal “flower week.” Each plant decided on her own when to flip, stretch, and settle. That context matters for everything you’re about to read. ⸻ 🌱 Quick recap — Seed to Week 7 • Germinated and flipped 12/12 from day one • Early structure built with air training + metal clamps • Focus from the start was: • Structure over speed • Roots over tops • Stability over chasing charts • Plants developed strong internodes, upright posture, and open architecture • No rushing, no forcing — just guidance By Week 6–7, structure was locked in. Which brings us to now. ⸻ 🌡️ Room conditions (current) • 🌡️ Day temp: ~28 °C • 💧 RH: ~65% • ⚡ EC: ~2.4 • pH: ~6.5 • 📏 Height: ~40–80 cm • 💡 LED lighting On paper, some growers panic at 28 °C in flower. But here’s the difference between growing by numbers and growing by understanding. ⸻ 🍃 LED, leaf temperature & VPD (the part most people skip) Under LED, room temperature ≠ leaf temperature. LEDs don’t radiate infrared heat like HPS. That means: • A wall sensor can read 28 °C • While leaf surface temperature is often 2–4 °C cooler And plants don’t feel the room — they feel their leaves. That’s where leaf VPD comes in. If: • Room temp = 28 °C • Leaf temp ≈ 24–26 °C • RH = 65% 👉 Leaf VPD lands right in the comfort zone for early–mid flower. And the plants confirm it: • Deep, relaxed green • No tacoing, no stress-praying • Strong internodes • Uniform uptake across phenotypes That’s real data. We’re not ignoring numbers — we’re letting plant behavior be the final authority. Stability beats “fixing” something that isn’t broken. ⸻ ✂️ Defoliation — why it was heavier this time Let’s be clear: This was not aesthetic defoliation. This was functional defoliation. Context matters: • 🏠 8×8 room • 🌱 ~27 plants • 🌬️ Airflow, humidity pockets, and light distribution scale very differently Sometimes a single plant wouldn’t ask for defoliation — but the room does. Why we defoliated: • Improve airflow through a dense canopy • Reduce micro-humidity pockets • Let photons travel into the canopy, not just hit the top • Reset apical dominance • Refocus energy toward flowering sites Yes — I went harder than initially planned. But: • Genetics are strong • Roots are dialed • Feed is stable • Plants are healthy Healthy plants recover fast. Stressed plants don’t. These girls are clearly the first category. ⸻ 🌿 Plant-specific notes (this update) 🌀 Cosmic Noodles — air-trained plant • Fully defoliated • All metal clamps removed • Structure is now self-supporting • Training phase is complete • She doesn’t need guidance anymore — just space This was a key moment: We built what we needed. Now we step back. 🌿 Sister plant • Also defoliated, fairly deep • Naturally bushy, jungle-style growth • Needed opening to avoid future congestion • Likely will need another light defoliation later — purely structural Same treatment, same feed, same environment — just different expression. ⸻ ⚖️ Nutrition note — slight Cal/Mag signal We did notice very mild Cal/Mag-related signs on some leaves. Nothing alarming, nothing spreading. Important context: • We’re running Terra line, not Coco • Terra Bloom doesn’t supply as much Ca/Mg as Coco A+B • LED + fast metabolism = higher demand We’re adjusting calmly and watching how the plant responds, not reacting emotionally. This week is about observing recovery post-defoliation. ⸻ 🔮 What to expect (and not expect) Expect: • Short recovery window • Faster vertical focus on flowering sites • Improved airflow and light efficiency • Clean structure heading into bulk phase Don’t expect: • A “stall” — these plants are too healthy • A hard flush — we reduce EC gradually, we don’t starve • Identical timelines across plants (12/12 from seed = individuality) ⸻ Final words This diary is not about perfection. It’s about learning, observing, and adjusting with intention. Thank you to: • Everyone following quietly • Everyone asking questions • OGs, newcomers, lovers, skeptics — all of you • GrowDiaries for being the platform that allows open sharing • Sponsors and supporters behind the scenes • And the plants — always the real teachers This week we focused on structure, airflow, and understanding, not fear. Cosmic Noodles has a lot coming. And this was a necessary chapter.

With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

Day 32 of 5th week of Flowering, This week I have not been able to run the C02 due to the low temps I am having ATM,(not even the 1.5 kw heater is up to the job!) Normally at this point I would be swapping the L.E.D. lights out with a pair of 600w Hps, However been there b4 and did exactly that but the bud just is not as good and of less strength/dense. First notice of some pistols turning brown. All the plants have been removed and defoliation has been strong, They is also a notable difference in smell this week rising a bit over low but still easily managed.( If smells becomes a problem then I will be adding UNA gel to the air out ducting after the fans and filter! ) Ttfn Skully.

Una de las Rainbow Mints ha salido autofloreciente. Le daré unos días, si no me convence la quitaré. El resto van bien, sanas y hoy empiezan el primer día de floración. He puesto la malla, y a esperar a que empiecen a estirar.

A good week here in the tent. The girls continue to grow and progress. Getting a small amount of water daily. Looking for more progression then I'll transplant the best looking ones.

Ok, so this week I did the initial flush and from now on going to be only giving her plain water. The plant has gotten a bit more swollen with a bunch more trichomes than it had before everything is still looking pretty nice to me no problems that I can see but this ain't the end yet so we will see how this next week goes over pce✌️

04.05 They are doing well after the defoliating 05.05 I decided to remove some smaller branches to give the main stems more potential to grow, we have per plant around 4 - 6 main stems, there would be a possibility to do more but since I need to be ready in time I am fine what I have here in form of stems. Beside that I really saw the first time a difference between the pots with airdome and the one without. The one without needs later water, I watered every pot with airdome again with 1500ml and will do the other pot later this day. 08.05 After a talk with a friend and some information I found through the www, I decided to lollipop way earlier and way more restrictive then I would usually do. 09.05 Watered with 1500ml 11.05 I finally installed the autopot system and measured the water in the tank. Hesi is reducing the PH level and am not sure if it is really healthy for plants potted in soil to have such a low PH.

Moved the grow to the basement which caused my plants to have to readjust to the new environmental norm. It's quite a bit colder down there so I used a flood light to bring up the heat outside of the tent and had a few days of 24 hour light cycle to warm up the tent's interior environment. Once the air and reservoir warmed up enough, the plants started happily eating and showing me how much they love their new home. ✌️❤️🏡

fan leaves are small but my girls are happy

Week 10: Buds are stacking and the frost is building! Observations: Week 10 is in the books and the girls are looking beautiful! The bud sites are really starting to fatten up and stack nicely. We are seeing some great trichome production developing on the sugar leaves, giving them a nice frosty look. Looking closely at the pistils, we have a mix right now. Many are still bright white and shooting straight out, which means the calyxes are still swelling and the plant is actively packing on weight. However, on some of the more mature colas, the pistils are just starting to darken, turn orange/brown, and curl inward. Plant Health & Nutrients: Overall, the canopy looks healthy and vigorous. The fan leaves are a very deep, rich, dark green. I did notice some very minor nutrient burn (crispy brown tips) on the edges of some leaves. It's nothing major to worry about, but it tells me the plant is right at its absolute limit for nutrients. I might dial back the feeding/EC slightly (especially the Nitrogen, given how dark the leaves are) so I don't stress her out as she finishes up flower. Next Steps: Going to keep the environment dialed in, keep an eye on those leaf tips, and just let her do her thing! The smell is really starting to come through now.

📅 D36 - 06/11 📜 Applied Defolation, LST and SCROG techniques ✍️ 1,5 EC ♒ 6 pH 🌊 10 L 📏 30 cm 📅 D37 - 07/11 📜 Raised EC ✍️ 1,6 EC ♒ 6 pH 🌊 10 L 📏 30 cm

20/12: Made the 2nd apical cut to the 4 arms to get the 8 colas and a full defolation of low part(i think the defolation was unnecesary but i was very excited hahaha)
