🌱 Day 57 - Start of the Second-to-Last Flowering Week 🌱
Hello, Grow Friends!
Today marks the start of the second-to-last flowering week—Week 9 overall, and Week 5 of flowering. 🌿 I’m getting more and more excited as my first grow nears its end. As I approach harvest, I’ve decided, based on my research, to stop feeding nutrients and stick to just pH-adjusted water for the final two weeks. 💧⚖️
Watering Routine:
I’ll keep the same watering schedule—1 liter every two days, which is about 10% of the pot volume. 🌱💧 This should be enough to flush out the remaining nutrients, ensuring a clean finish for the plant.
Temperature & Humidity:
The temperature remains stable between 19-23°C, which I believe is ideal for this stage of the grow. 🌡️🍂 No more high temperatures to worry about! The humidity is fluctuating between 45-58%, and I’m keeping a close eye on it to stay below 60%. 💧🔍 Everything seems on track for now. 🌿
Plant Health & Growth:
The plant still looks very healthy overall. 🌱💪 However, I’ve noticed that in the past three days, there haven’t been any visible changes in the size of the buds. 🤔 It could just be that I’m not seeing the growth clearly, but the only noticeable change is the daily opening of new flower calyxes. 🌸
Harvest Preparation:
I’m already getting my equipment ready for drying after harvest. 🛠️ Once it’s time to cut, I’ll be hanging the plant to dry for the first 10 days. 🌿✂️ I want to make sure everything is set for a smooth drying process.
Stay tuned for more updates, and as always, daily photos of the plant will be posted! 📸🌱
Day 62 - Last-Minute Decisions with Urgent Changes 🌱
Hello, my grow friends! Due to the trichome pictures I took on Day 61—which you can check out too—I’ve made an unexpected decision to harvest my plant a bit earlier than planned and make some changes.
🌿 Watering and Flushing:
The last time I watered was on Day 61, using all the usual nutrients at the doses I mentioned before. But after seeing the trichome pictures, I decided to start a light flush today. I gave the plant 4 liters of plain water to begin flushing and will now only water lightly on Day 64. After that, no more water until harvest on Day 67.
🌑 Dark Period:
From Day 66 to Day 67, I plan to keep the plant in darkness. I’m not entirely sure if this will make a difference, but I’m curious to try it out.
✂️ Defoliation:
The plant is doing well, and I’ve done a thorough defoliation. I removed all leaves that aren’t sugar leaves or directly attached to the buds to improve air circulation and reduce the risk of mold as I approach the end of the grow.
💭 Trimming Decisions:
I’m still undecided about whether to do a wet trim or a dry trim. Based on what I’ve read, especially regarding the yield from trim, I’m leaning towards dry trimming, as it might give me more usable trim material.
I can feel the plant entering its final phase, and I’m getting really excited about the results and what the next few days will bring. Remember, I post a video update every day. If you have any tips or suggestions, I’d love to hear them!
Until next time! 🌱

Days 33-35
Both ladies have been transplanted and moved into the Veg tent! If you look in the video you can see the setup.
Both are in 10.5"x10.5" square nursery pots approx 3Gal each. Both were put into happy frog soil using azos and recharge during transplant.
I have them under an optic 8+ with a cob as supplemental lighting
Day 37:
A light defoliation day today, especially for #1. I removed all the mature fan leaves that were blocking any bud sites or nodes at all. Essentially leaving the top 2 mature leaves in tact. I honestly did not want to do this! It was heart wrenching to mutilate such a beautiful naturally growing plant 🤷♂️ practicality wins in the end tho. I removed the 2 oldest lowest fan leaves from #2 as well. More for sanitation reasons. They werent8blocking anything but the uh were dragging in the dirt and starting to fade anyhow. I actually kept 1 leaf. My 1st time ever doing this. The leaf is so neat, overlapping itself.
*transplant update day 37*
In my very green opinion they look to be struggling a bit with the transplant. I like to wet my medium prior to placing the rootball in, sometimes it's great and the roots chase it. Sometimes they get a little water logged and it takes a week b4 watering. I'm thinking it's the latter in this scenario.
Day 38; #1's top fan leaves are rolling in again. I figured it was heat but the surface area doesn't get above 78° which from what I've read is fine. Maybe it's a strain issue? Looks very imdica, ma uh be is accustomed to a cooler climate?
Day 39:
I lowered #1 about a foot further from the light. She is still all curled up tho. It isn't heat. I watered them at transplant per my usual routine. 2 other plants stranded extremely bad and these 2 are acting goofy. I probably over did it that day
Day 42 and 43
In day 42 CMOG #1 needed some water. It's her 1st drink since transplant. #2 on the other hand is drinking a bit less. I also took 2 upper fan leaves off #1(I hate doing it, but gotta promote those bud sites!! Day 43nothing really to report. I videotaped myself plucking a couple lower fan leaves. I'm raising the fan a bit more above #2 to keep wind stress down.
Day 44: 🚨⛈️Emergency!!⛈️🚨
Power is out! My light cycle is as follows: on at 6pm off at 12pm.
Its 2:45am right now and the power has gone out. Which was wierd because it went out b4 the storm hit! It was fricken midday when the outtage happen!! My poor Chocolate Mint OG 😖 keeping humididty down is gonna be hard and my grow is very far from and natural light source even if they were on the same cycle as nature 🤷♂️🤦♂️ if ur reading this say a quick prayer! Thanks!!🙏✌️🌱

Week 1 Day 1
- Clones #1 and #2 are looking alright, not super strong and slight nutrient deficiency issues, but OK. Will just observe for now.
- These clones are currently under a very mild CFL light (20 cm away and about 200 ppfd measured roughly by phone app - Tent Buddy.)
- Clone #3 still need to be covered to maintain moisture. Yesterday I un-cupped the clone and it wilted a lot. This morning it looks better again after a night of rest under the plastic cup.
- I've checked the run off and these clone's pH are so low, while TDS are so high (pH 5.7 and TDS 800pm). This evening, I flushed them with pH 6.5 water and brought the runoff to about pH 6.0 and 350 ppm)
Week 1 Day 2 - Just foliage spray with mild CalMag this morning. Soil is still moist, so no watering.
Week 1 Day 3 - Just minor watering today. Glad to see the clones are doing well as they are growing a bit everyday. Will transfer them to 3 gallon airpots with new soil mix soon.
Week 1 Day 4 - Foliage spray with mild CalMag and Seaweed. Add 5ml of 250 ppm of balanced NPK nutrients AN B52 for each plant.
Week 1 Day 5 - Foliage spray with mild CalMag and Seaweed. Transfer them to 3 gallon airpots.
Week 1 Day 6 - Foliage spray with mild CalMag and Seaweed. Skip watering. The clones responded OK to the new airpots.
Week 1 Day 7 - TBA

The Shaman was cut today. It's always bittersweet for me when it's time for harvest. Like every time I've grown her,
I had so much fun and joy—just looking at her brought me happiness.
SHAMAN is a keeper in my outdoor genetics. She is easy to grow from start to harvest,
always a pleasure. Despite the fact that this year she took longer to mature,
I can't blame the genetics—all my outdoor plants were 3-4 weeks later this year. It was simply the conditions.
Let's talk about conditions:
The soil bed is prepared in autumn the year before and refreshed in springtime,
so the plant always has at least 60 cm of deep, nice, and fluffy enriched soil base filled with
microorganisms, microbacteria, and mycorrhizae.
The roof is the most important part. This year I added 2 SCROGS—that was great!
She stayed stable during heavy wind and rain and kept on shining after the storms.
I'm very pleased with the outdoor season overall, despite a very cold and wet spring
and summer with only short periods of hot and sunny weather.
The girls in my garden didn't care and kept growing and blooming until the last day.
Thank you @DutchPassion_Official for the seeds—I still have 2 left for next year.
My first Attempt with SHAMAN

And the second Run
https://growdiaries.com/diaries/106092-grow-journal-by-mrs-larimar
Breeders Infomation:
Shaman is a solid, highly powerful F1 hybrid. This mostly sativa strain has the THC level of 13.7%. It consists of 75 % sativa and 25 % indica.
It is perfect for the outdoor and greenhouse cultivations. The plant is resistant to the mould and the bud's rot due the open structure. It has a big intermodal distance between the buds. The flowering time is 8-9 weeks in greenhouses. The plant reaches 1-1.5 m in height.
The sweet woody smoke brings a sensual high-quality sativa effect.
I hope you all enjoy reading my diary.

¡Día 21 de floración y decidí darle más luz al escenario verde de Tropicanna Poison! 🌿☀️ Realicé una poda estratégica de las hojas más grandes, permitiendo que esos cogollos en ascenso reciban toda la atención lumínica que merecen. 💡🌺 La planta está respondiendo con energía extra y los resultados prometen ser tan brillantes como el sol que ahora llega a cada rincón. 🚀✂️ ¡Una poda para un espectáculo floral más brillante! 💚🌈 #TropicannaPoisonUpdate #PodaCannábica #FloraciónRadiante

So had to adjust the weeks in the diary but here we are day 21 week 3 and they are starting to show preflowers and I’m greeted with a faint sweet smell every time I open the tent.
Grew about 3” average week over week internode distance is compact, this variety stalk is tremendous in power tried twice to start lst and both times the plant managed to
straighten it self upright within hours. After some debate I’ve decided that I’ll let her be an see what happens.
The stretch has started almost 3” of growth in last 3 days
Water with recharge and elementXX gonna wait till day 25 to hopefully see their effect on the plants
So that recharge is amazing 2” of growth in less than 48hrs made me have to adjust the light height. So from day 21 till day 25 just over 4” of height gained. Next feeding I’ll start to introduce bloom and molasses.
Morning of day 27 introducing TNB Naturals and turning on the second 600w LED, plants have seen explosive growth this week, tied some of the secondary branches down to allow better light penetration. I’m excited to see what the CO2 will encourage.

one thing i liked was it started to get a little purple but that didnt really come through in the end. also i like the fast flowering.
what i didnt like was that it truly was a bitch to grow, and if this were a bingo night i'd have crossed out nearly all the possible deficiencies and pest issues you can get. After being really happy with the purple punch genetics this one has been l bit of a disappointment really.
i'd love to see more information strainspecifically to come with the package of seeds. like for instance if its a heavy feeder, if it likes the lights close or far away, and how long the flowereing period usually takes. Probably not growing this again anytime sooon though.

That’s impressive. This strain is amazing. Couldn’t be happier. Will keep going with this nutrient schedule until the two Royal Highness grow a bit more. I should do some LST asap because there are lot of hidden and trapped leaves under the bigger ones.
Update:
Did some LST to uncover the hidden leaves. I’m just a bit scared about how big she will get after this.

#seedsman420growoff and #SeedsmanSeeds
📆 Week 9, 22-28 June 2024
22 June - Observed and let the plant grow.
23 June - Defoliated
24-28 June - Observed and let the plant grow.
📑 Defoliated all large lower and damaged leaves from plant.
Checked TDS PPM on 24 June, the reading originally started at 1290, was now 455, so I decided to change solution earlier than scheduled.
Checked TDS PPM on 27 June and the reading was 390. So the nutrient solution was changed again.
Larger plants consume much more nutrients and may require a modified feeding schedule. I’ll just observe and see how she does. Some plants are sensitive to this. Again I’m talking about DWC specifically.
Her smell has intensified this week, defined by a pineapple scent! It truely does! She seems to have (so far) taken well to the early solution change.
🍶 24, 27 June nutrient solution changed
🍽️ 24, 27 June feeding schedule updated
💧 Using reverse osmosis water with EC/TDS at 0
🐉 Nutrient Solution EC 2.6 at 73 degree F
🔆 Light power at 75%, DLI 45 canopy coverage at 12hrs
😤 Using General Hydroponics, HGC728040, Dual Diaphragm Air Pump, 320 GPH
That is it for this week. Thanks for the look, read and stopping by.

Day 63#
Well, like this... the situation is much better, the plant has completely recovered, even if it was the least affected, but it was, for sure.
She started extracting a little nitrogen from the lower leaves, but no big deal, the last two waterings only received clean water, so it's not surprising, although she was a little hungrier from the beginning because I thought that in the country where there is more food, however, it turned out that there is less, and again I can't exaggerate because of the accumulation of salt, and it wouldn't make sense to suddenly increase the dose of food or the number of feedings, I could only cause a problem. Just slowly and gradually.
I will leave those leaves until the next watering, because then I will feed her, and then I will remove them, so that she does not extract nitrogen from the next leaves.
One thing that caught my eye is that the plant is quite thin and tall, so it might be a male, I wouldn't want to guess, but it's not impossible even if the seed is feminized.
I'm very suspicious of everything, but maybe I'm just tripping, maybe it's only up to the pot, it's not wide and it's not a big volume, although I've had much wider and thicker plants in slightly bigger pots than this one and at this time, the stems on this one are a little thicker than inside.
Today is the end of the ninth week for the plant.
Stay High and Keep Growing!!!
