Today marks the start of the final week before harvest, and I’ve officially begun flushing the plant. It's really exciting to see how far it has come. The buds have developed beautifully, and the scent is amazing – super fruity and sweet, almost like a mix of berries and tropical fruit. The aroma fills the space every time I check on it. I’m pretty satisfied with how the plant has grown overall. The structure is solid, and the buds are dense and sticky. Everything looks on track for a good yield, and I can’t wait to see the final product after curing. Fingers crossed for a smooth finish!

These plants are getting huge!!! I supercropped em down tonight and gave em a full blast of feed! I'm trying to keep leaves on but i did give them a small trim. they seem to be catching up to each other, I hope they will level out! They are gonna be big plants tho fo sho! Going to transfer tents this week probably. ____________________________________________________________________________ Moved them into the big tent! its snug, but they should be happy! Getting HUGE! ______________________________________________ I felt like they were in all their glory tonight! I got in there and gave em a big ol haircut and pulled out all the lower garbage. With the use of several spacers I really feel like I opened em up nicely and primed em up for some big buds to form. Two plants are def gonna be purple. We'll see about the other 2.

@MephistoGenetics, Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. This is my second cultivation ever and it will be fun to try a bigger space than my closet grow. First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of ​​3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable environment in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 10 pcs 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. But there are no cultivation rooms to be displayed here, so I continue with what is most important. Today I have put my seeds in paper towel and hope the seeds have germinated within a few days. I am very excited to see how the new growroom will work and how this Illuminauto 21 - Sour Crinkle will turn out. Illuminauto 21 - Sour Crinkle (Grape Crinkle x Sour Crack) Two of our fastest and frostiest varieties collide to make a sweet and sour delight! Expect super frosty, compact nugs that won't be a toke for novices.  Destined to be a great strain for extraction work too! Plant size - Small - Medium Cycle time - 60-65 days from sprout Indica/Sativa - 80/20 Frost level - Extra Ridiculous https://www.mephistogenetics.com/product-page/illuminauto-21-sour-crinkle ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. 2017-08-21.

Hello to you who read my diary, I just want to say that I am pleased that you have chosen to check in with me and in my diary. I just want to say that I do this for myself and for a steady flow of my medicine. Everything you read and see in my diary is 100% honest and I will never distort or beautify anything here. I document my crops so that I can learn from my mistakes and also to look back at those different crops. I try to update with pictures every day and with text if something special has happened in the garden. This is my strainhunt for the best medicine and the beginning of my journey with cannabis and the cultivation of it. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-30. Cleaned the room this morning, just vacuuming and cleaning with chlorine solution. Im testing the fan to control temp and humidity, it works great. Added some pics and a movie. Everything is looking great right now. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-31. 3 new pics. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-01.

Mon - 1/25/21 The top feed + 5 Tbs of Dr Earth life per 3gallon pot seems to be doing pretty well. Today I'm just watering with 6.2 water. Tuesday - 1/26/21 Still looking good, no action Wed - 1/27/21 - Soil was still wet enough that I didn't need to water. Will resume tomorrow Thur - 1/28/21 - Watered 5 gallons across all 3 Fri - 1/29/21 - No water Sat - 1/30/21 - No water Sunday - 1/31/21 - Watered up! Overall, I'm pretty happy! The leaves have healed up a bit and the buds are super dense. Not quite as frosty as I'd like, but I plan to do some Fox Farm Big bloom next week.

. 🌱 Tag 28 - Eine Woche, die sich endlich wie Routine anfühlt Seit dem letzten Update ist eine Woche vergangen und trotz kleiner Unruhe in den letzten Durchgängen hat sich das Setup diesmal deutlich stabilisiert. Kein pH-Chaos, keine Mischfehler im Tank, einfach konstante Versorgung und gleichmäßiges Wachstum. Wir merken deutlich, dass sich unser Wachstum gerade verändert. Es geht nicht mehr nur darum, größer zu werden, sondern darum, Struktur aufzubauen. Die ersten Anzeichen der Blütephase sind da und der ganze Rhythmus verschiebt sich langsam in diese Richtung. Noch ist es kein kompletter Wechsel, eher ein Übergangszustand. Aber wir arbeiten sichtbar anders weiter als noch vor einer Woche. Wir wachsen weiterhin gleichmäßig und ohne Stresssignale. Die Blätter werden dichter, die Struktur klarer und intern passiert deutlich mehr, als man von außen direkt sieht. Diese Phase fühlt sich ein bisschen so an, als würden wir uns neu sortieren, bevor es richtig losgeht. Das Wasser und die Nährlösung passen aktuell gut zu uns. Der pH wird konsequent auf 5,7 eingestellt und driftet über ein bis zwei Tage auf etwa 6,3, wo er sich dann stabilisiert. EC liegt konstant im Bereich 1,6–1,8. Bisher kommen wir damit sehr gut klar und zeigen keine negativen Reaktionen. 👨‍🌾 Gärtner: Diese Woche war unangenehm unspektakulär. Ich hab mittlerweile den Dreh mit dem Wasser wirklich raus. pH-Management läuft inzwischen bewusst und reproduzierbar, nicht mehr nach Gefühl und Hoffnung. Die anfänglichen Probleme durch Hydrogencarbonate im Leitungswasser sind jetzt eingeplant statt überraschend. Wichtigste Erkenntnis der letzten Tage: Wenn man den pH sauber auf 5,7 einstellt und die EC-Spanne 1,6–1,8 hält, ist das System deutlich weniger anfällig. Der leichte pH-Anstieg über 1–2 Tage auf ~6,3 ist inzwischen kein Problem mehr, sondern einfach ein bekanntes Verhalten des Systems. Nichts, was Panik auslöst. Eher so ein: „Ja gut, du bist halt so“-Moment gegenüber dem Wasser. Und das eigentlich Beste: Die Pflanzen reagieren darauf bisher stabil und ohne Beschwerden.

Day 21: plants acclimated great to their new 1.5g homes, and have already rebounded. I’m currently running about 47% on the dimmer of the sf7000 @ 25” above canopy. All plants are very level making lighting easy thus far. They dried out a bit since the transplant watering so I’m back to feeding roughly 500ml to 700ml per day. That may change, I want to do a bottom feed next, so we’ll see how long that takes before I stay on the top feeding and implement a standard watering schedule. Day 27: added a video of the growth over the past 6 days. Starting to show signs of vigorous growth. Excuse the Timelapse as I am leaf tucking and rotating once in a while. Haven’t seen a need to tie down yet, since the fan leafs are so huge it makes tucking easy and super viable in this position.

03/12/2019 Day 81 The Dr seems to be concentrating in forming buds but I think she's grown some half centimeter, is she going to touch the ceiling? She has to know that is is confined and the sky is not the limit, at least in her condition. Day 82 (04-12-2019) The shoot at the rear left is almost touching the celiling of the grow tent😨 and i keep on tying other shoots and keeping them the farthest from the burning lights (many leaves' tips are scorched, but fortunately it's just the tip and the bud is still far from that hot point. Other leaves that are close to the lights, well, I took scissors and there's no need to speak further. Look the hard work I'm having with this plant height's issue. Goddammit why can't I have a normal grow like everyone? Day 83 just looking the video and the pics is self explanatory. No further comments 😒 Day 84 Ithe tallest shoot has reached the ceiling and seems to try to keep on growing so she needed to start bending at the very top because she wouldn't get past the tent fabric. Regarding EC, I am using a fertigation solution about 1,3 mS/cm and the runoff EC at 1.5 mS/cm. EC has been kept controlled since I raised fertigation volume to 6 L per fertigation event (1/day), unfortunately this solution containing nutrients goes to waste :( Day 85 07/12 I'lllst the tops that get to touch the ceiling and keep observing and acting as needed. I fear she'll stilll keep going up for a while. Fertigations as usual, got runoff EC 650 ppm today (1.3 ms/cm) which I think it's very good of a value. Day 86 (08/12/2019) Following advice I defoliated and even cut some thin and improductive shoots. Removed a lot of foliage and even supercropped a long tall shoot, I want to see how this high stress technique affects her. Because I plan to keep it doing if other shoots decided to continue growing. I wonder why do shoots continue growing vertical after having passed the light's level. Is it the glow coming from the reflective walls perhaps? Many questions. I decided to take down some tall shoots by suspending little weights near the tip, it seems to work more or less fine. Day 87 luckily the HST seems to have worked fine, the shoots are recovering and point upwards again. The main tip is quite unruly, today I supercropped that tip. Runoff EC is 650 ppm, perfect. Day 92 /14-12-2019) I think that despite her exaggerate growth she's managing to thrive fine with some limitations, buds seems going well. Shoots are still growing vertical but supercropping and resistance seems to have hampered her a while, but now I see she engaged on growing some centimeters more :/ Day 93 two days from starting the 14th week, despite the lights and the heat of this season (added to the lights I had to keep the tent door open for there was 32 ºC inside) the Dr is taking it well, I see the buds foxtailing as I expected, and I'm positive this grow will get to a good end. I'll work day by day to achieve that. Regarding fertigation, I gave her a solution half concentrated (relative to the solutions that I had given her the preceding days) because I noticed salt build-up by the EC measurements. I left run off EC at 800 ppm which is still a bit high for my liking but not excessively. For the amount of runoff I collected today, I see she seems to be drinking a little more.

Week 10: 20/4 light schedule, 150 mp water per plant 2x, no fertilization anymore. Day 65: Next week Tueasday/beggining week 11/ we need to harvest because they will come from the council to check the house😂 Well, the previous one finished in 69 days, but I think they won't be properly ready by next week. I tried it and made me high anyways. I would give at least 2 weeks more to be done. Tomorrow I will check the trichomes with magnifying glass. They are beautiful stinky girls. Flowers are getting thicker and pistils are getting brownish. Day 66: I checked the trichomes with magnifying glass and it will be ready by next Tuesday. 7 days left with this day. They are beautiful just check in the video (Day 66). Day 67: It is crazy the last 3 days was so hot here in London. Today was 38 degrees!!!!!! Poor plants even with ventilation it goes up to 30-31 degrees. Well, it is alright because direct ventilation goes on so they won't be cooked. 😓😛 Day 70: It is the last day when they receive water and they just get once and half of the daily intake. 2 days before harvest I will not water them. Harvest day is on Tuesday 30th of July when they are 72 days old. I have checked the trichomes all good they are matured nicely cloudy so now it is very strong. They are very stinky girls 😋 Day 71: No more water for them..... Tomorrow is harvest day!!!!!😋

This week I decided to introduce nutrition. I am new to this so i went for organic (from what I've read) bio bizz and is also readily available at my local grow shop thankfully haha my first run so I halved the recommended amounts more or less as I didn't was to burn the plants as they are still young.

6th week of 12/12 ended for my Big Block by Cannabis Brothers California. Here I am exposing pheno number 8 this week as it's turning out great. I took it out on natural light and made few fotos so you can see it in more natural way. Besides having the nicest structure among 4 phenotypes, it's also developing the nicest flower structure and it looks like it will also finnish as first. Deffo a keeper in my eyes, but the final test will be smoking it, but we are still long way from there. Other than that, video shows current situation in my 4x4 tent. Absolutely jaw dropping cultivar, growing in 6L pots but exceeding 1m in height and also it looks like a descent yielder. Not to mention the aroma intensity. It's just proving what I was hoping for - true OG bred by true OG's - the Cannabis Brothers. Lineage Blockberry x Motorbreath 15 (Legend OG) Tap water feeding (Premium program) Aptus Light (BS600) + UVA/UVB 3hrs daily @future_of_grow Soil (lightmix) & pH Plagron Tent size 4x4 (120x120) Pot size 6L (1.6 gal) Stay tuned for few weeks more to see the final outcome, but pheno #8 is deffo the one I'm keeping. Peace out 💚

Chopped 04/09/26Purple Lemonade definitely surprised me in many ways. She unexpectedly showed very strong sativa traits after a very short and stocky indica veg period. She was the only plant in the grow to suffer major issues (pH dropped to 5 in runoff a few weeks ago) which was a little frustrating. I was going to give a lower rating, but the more I look back on it, the more I realize that if I was more consistent in how I am monitoring my plants, her issues could have been entirely prevented. Really my biggest issue is just her growth pattern and overall structure. LST in veg was virtually impossible, then when she started her stretch she was growing an inch per day! Very difficult to manage, and I agree with other opinions that she is nitrogen sensitive. Be very careful to not overdo it on nutes and she will reward you for the work. Her aroma is nowhere near as powerful as LCCs, but now that they are apart I am finally able to pick up some of her nuiance. Very similar in scent to LCC, but she has retained more of the sweet side of the aroma since the chop. I'll be very curious to compare the smoke between the 2. Anyways, thanks for checking this out, I'll have everything uploaded when it's ready in the next week or 2. Happy growing 🌱 04/15/26 - got her all chopped, trimmed and dried. Her total smokeable bud weight came out to 32g. While I'm happy overall, it's a shame because she easily could have yielded 2+ ounces. I threw close to half of her in the trim because the smaller buds were loose, airy, and full of leaves. Wouldn't have been worth the 6 hours of trimming for a few more subpar buds. The rest of her is alright, still nowhere near as dense as I would like, but that's likely my fault and not the genetics of the strain. Will update again one last time in a week with the smoke report.

Wish I could have vegged the clones another couple of weeks but the Zkitzo was just growing to fast. In hindsight shouldn’t have put a plant from seed in with the clones. Seeds always grow like mad in NFT and clones are more manageable as they don’t have a tap root. Still got some absolutely beautiful looking and smelling bud from the Zkitzo so can’t really regret it. The Gelatos are rock solid right through and look absolutely beautiful. Used rainwater right the way through on this so should smoke nice to. Better pictures as it dries.

Slowing down, packing on trichomes/resin, strong fruity skunk earthy smell so far, very sticky and looks very nice, flowers stacking in a rose like position, round and ball like. Looks like a mini frosty rose! Only water this week.
