🗓️ Veg – Week 4 complete (2 days late 😅) Nothing but good news this week: The 15L pots are already fully rooted after just one week – much faster than expected. The plants are looking healthy and full of energy 🌿 I’m still going very light on the nutrients – currently at about 50% of the Advanced Nutrients schedule. Still, they’re clearly starting to take in more – you can feel the momentum building 🚀 Regular LST has also paid off – the structure is opening up nicely, staying compact and well-exposed to light 🔧🌱 And here’s a major milestone to wrap up veg: I switched to 12/12 right at the beginning of Week 5 – flowering phase is officially on! 🌸

Raised light and reminded a few branches. Everything's going smooth.

This week has been a mixed bag for my two plants. #1 is really taking off now, showing strong growth and picking up speed!🌱 It’s looking healthy and vigorous, which is great to see. Towards the end of the week, I also noticed the first signs of flowering—exciting! Unfortunately, #2 is still struggling.😩 It has barely grown and remains very small compared to #1. If it doesn’t start making progress soon, I might consider replacing it with another plant. I’ll give it a little more time, but let’s see how things develop in the next week. Fingers crossed!🤞

She's looking very healthy, beautiful color on the leafs, completely stunning after I got rid of the fungus gnats she's growing ultra fast, let's see what happens with this beautiful princess of mine! 😍👀💚

Pinched a couple of the lower suckers. Trying to bend her over and let nature take its course. Trying get some of the inner growth to catch up, Need to be patient with her. All in all, so far, so good. Watering every other day. Not watering all the way through the bag yet. Probably won’t be much longer before I do. Stretch should be coming soon.

The veg cycle was shorter than i usually like to have a plant go through, due to time restrictions for the Bubba Cheesecake Diary grow-off, but it still did fantastic in my mind! Three months in veg under high-octane light and 11 1/2 weeks in flower have let this plant turn into a dreadlocked group of nugs. Three main colas, but lots of burnable flower to enjoy once the dry is finished. I did a light LST with a decent amount of defoliation throughout the plant's life. I like to open up the middle area of the plant and let as much light as possible hit as many branch and potential flower nodes as possible. This way, i don't need to lollipop as many branches and as much foliage as i would if i didn't do this. Plus, the candelabra look is b-e-a-Utiful, in my opinion. Light intensity through veg ranged from 40% as a fresh seedling to around 55% the week before i put it into the bloom room. Once it was in the bloom room, the intensity was set at 50% for the first couple weeks to allow for a decent stretch. After that, i think i recorded the light intensity in my diary notes for each week. But, just in case i didn't, I bumped up the intensity by a few percent every 3 days until i hit 100%. Once i got to MAXIMUM POWER, i left it there until harvest. Water was natural well water that tests out at 7 pH. I always added BuildABloom to the water, never the soil, when i used it. Same with Dr. Earth's 1-2-1 tea concentrate. Other than those instances, it was just straight water that i was giving to the plant. Grow rooms are both about 4'x8'. Lights are still budget lights: -IMVSincere BC100(x3) for veg (Link: https://www.amazon.com/IMVSINCERE-Spectrum-High-Performance-Greenhouse-Hydroponic/dp/B095C2DLH5/ref=asc_df_B095C2DLH5/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=563646983247&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=540375076791862758&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9005737&hvtargid=pla-1602626531718&psc=1&gclid=CjwKCAjw__ihBhADEiwAXEazJgD4ugog9JhrBxNShAvyxL7mk9FZTcqD8voe6_dtA20JctuC5Q9qvBoCD7oQAvD_BwE ) Abriselux A1500(x2) for flower (Link: https://www.amazon.com/Abriselux-Dimmable-Coverage-Upgraded-Hydroponic/dp/B08V1FM9V2/ref=asc_df_B08V1FM9V2/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=507792239689&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=17954986133471144655&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9005737&hvtargid=pla-1213853152075&psc=1 ) All in all, this was one of the most enjoyable cultivars I've grown inside since i started indoor grows in September 2022. I'm definitely going to try and get more seeds off of my brother, as well as buy some more seeds to pheno-hunt through! Thank you, @Seedsman , for running this contest. I would have never tried this cultivar out if it wasn't for you giving me a little incentive!

Hello. This is the end of week 8 and the beginning of week 9 of flowering. This week I will start flushing for 2 weeks. The breeders description said 8 to 9 weeks of flowering, But I found I like to grow everything to 10 week of flowering. I find I like nice mature buds a little past, what some people call, prime conditions. Now that I have a number of flowering areas I might put 1 to sativa use and start flowering 12 to 18 weeks or start some sativa at 12/12. But first I have to get through about 1 1/2 years of bought seeds I have sitting here all 10 week of flowering or less. I would like a good stable of prize females, and then I'll start making my own fem seeds and seeing what new strains I can come up with. The smell is mostly citrus now with some earthy/watery undertones. Keep Growing Straight. Chuck.

Week 16 (6/6/22 - 6/12/22) - FLOWER Week 2 Ladies respoded well to last weeks trellising and defoliating.

I pinched the tops off both plants..

I'm so late 😩 life been taking over tho. So weather played a huge factor here. Weird storm happened shut power off for a couple days and got the temperature super low in my grow closet. So the deficiencies came in with the vengeance! Didnt notice it right away so I just continued watering at 6.5ph then thats when I started to notice the leaves on the lemo pie curling up. But I thought it was just the light so I moved it from right under it but it just got worse. I procrastinated longer confused on what it was going to do.🤦‍♂️🏿 didn't look good So I made a seabird guano,worm casting,alpha meal tea, breed it for 48hrs and used it about 5days ago. If somebody! anybody! Could let me know if ots a wrap for her or she might be ok? I would really appreciate it.

Blue Zushi entra en su recta final con una presencia imponente. Cada rincón del cuarto de cultivo refleja el esfuerzo de estas semanas, y las plantas están en su punto más vistoso hasta ahora. Los cogollos han alcanzado un nivel de compactación sobresaliente. Se sienten duros al tacto, pesados y llenos de resina. La capa de tricomas es densa y opaca, como una escarcha blanca que lo cubre todo. El característico tono azul se ha intensificado al máximo, sobre todo en las hojas cercanas a las puntas, creando un contraste visual que parece sacado de una postal. La nutrición sigue igual: XpertNutrients como base y Sticky Fingers como potenciador de resina, que no ha dejado de sorprender. En esta fase, la acumulación de terpenos se hace evidente: los aromas son más penetrantes, complejos y embriagadores. El perfil se define con notas cítricas más dulces, casi caramelizadas, sobre un fondo kush cremoso y ligeramente especiado. La iluminación con Adlite sigue marcando la diferencia. La densidad de cogollos incluso en zonas menos expuestas lo confirma. La distribución de la luz ha permitido un desarrollo muy equilibrado de toda la planta. Las condiciones ambientales se han mantenido estables, lo que ha permitido evitar cualquier estrés: temperaturas entre 22 y 24 °C y una humedad que ya se empieza a bajar ligeramente, en torno al 45-50%, para prepararnos de cara al final. El ambiente está cargado de aroma, intenso y agradable, pero también indica que se acerca el momento decisivo. La mayoría de los tricomas están ya lechosos y muchos comienzan a teñirse de ámbar. La planta pide calma, pero ya deja entrever que la cosecha está muy cerca. Una joya que está casi lista para brillar al máximo. ¡Últimos pasos antes del gran final! ✨ Seguimos creciendo fuerte! 💪

🔥🔥this project & phenotype was scrapped due to some personal things that came up. However, im growing these exact plants again, a very good phenotype found!! check out my recent uploads! 🔥🔥

Start of flowering, week 1, day 29 for plants 2 & 3. Plant 1 will stay in veg, following same feed schedule as previous week's, but she will no longer be included in this diary. Plants 2 and 3 look very healthy and I trimmed several lower branches as they were getting minimal light.

*02/19 update - Running 18/6 till harvest - She bulked up heavy during week 7 (Week 3 flower) - Heavy Flower Fuel feedings with cal-mag every other feeding - light Defo*

Everything is going great. Fingers crossed they will be ready by Christmas.

09/11/2022 switch to flowering (12-12) first defoliation 09/13/2022 Watering 3l per plants

Boy with the temperatures being so good in my basement I had a tough few weeks with this girl . She still faired better then her friend gelato41 , I had ph issues and temps fluctuating , and the lack of time as my kids and wife have been sick with the flu for a week and I'm full time Midnight's ...dam never thought growing could be such a challenge sometimes both physically and mentally... With things back on track in my home life and growing world I can't wait to see how my first few weeks of flowering goes wish us luck canna family cheers ...

Hello beautifull people! These are the final weeks. Started flushing this week. Strictly water! Im having a hard time keeping the humidity low... So i placed two passive dehumidifiers. 1 in and 1 outside the tent. And i have a fan blowing air over the buds. Lets hope that will suffice. Dont want to use high power using equiment. Power here is hella expensive. Added a vid displaying juicy nugs.
