The time is finally here to post the harvest. I waited till it was all done and dry before updating the dairy so will add in the dry weights next on the 2nd half of the harvest entry. Had some ups and downs with this plant. mainly the extreme yellowing that was happening. I should have treated this faster with a flush but was super reluctant and I feel this has suffered in the end. The top best looking buds could have been larger and the lower ones could have been thicker. There is some smells with this plant but they are not pronounced. Just smells like mild basic weed, this would be one reason not to grow it, however, the crystals on this plant have been the most I've ever grown before. When trimming them every time the scissors snipped or the brush stroked I saw some falling down onto the tray. This plant would be great for making hash. had a good little ball of finger hash at the end of it and will be giving that to my friends to smoke or make a strong edible with. I don't plan on growing this strain out again, the lack of smells and the fact I'm only trying to grow cbd dominate plants is the main reason. If my friends really like this I have some clones so can always give them some. Speaking of clones they are doing well outside, greened up a lot and showing signs of revegging. Took some photos of the weed hang drying on day 1 in the tent and a week later to show how much they shrink. most of the lower growth is quite larfy but will make good edibles or hash, that will be a fun project to do and may include that in my projects diary. That's about all I can think of if you have any questions just ask. m0use Disclaimers: 1. I have divided the total watts of light in half, 300w(150w) for this diary. It will accurately reflect the g/w ratio as the two plants growing in this tent are listed in two separate diaries. 2. I include any shake/trim in my gross totals as I use them to make edibles. 3. I did not follow any proper ways of listing my nutrients. Some are ml/l of total solution watered, others ml/l of total medium and some are just the total amounts I added, not as a ratio.

I converted the cents into dollar amounts beforehand to avoid dividing by 100. 8.2c/h = 0.082$/h 438h * 0.17c/kwh = $74.46kw * 0.15kw = $11.17 on peak 522h * 0.113c/kwh = $58.99kw *0.15kw = $8.85 mid peak 1,272h * 0.082c/kwh = $104.30kw *0.15kw = $15.65 off peak The "h" hours and "kw" kilowatts cancel out and we are left with a value of $ dollars per peak period, add all the peak periods up and you get your total cost of running the lights in dollars. $11.17 + $8.85 + $15.65 = $35.67 for the grow light only. My light grew for 20 weeks and 4 days, or 144 days. almost 21 weeks total. $35.67 / 144d = 0.2477$/d average of about 25c a day in electricity 337.2kw for the entire grow. Using the regular calculation of grams harvested divided by watts used is not accurate to me, it does not account for all the time the lamps are on, the length of grow to the over all cost. The calculation that makes sense to me is this, harvested dry weight of usable cannabis buds/trim/keif/whatever in grams divided by total kw used. Could also combine it with grams per total single use costs “anything you used only for this grow and wont reuse in the next, or fractions of multi use items like fertilizers if they ½ full” and see how much you’re investing per gram. "kw" ÷ "g" = kw/g "$" ÷ "g" = $/g I have harvested 5.34oz or 151.6g on 337.2kw. 337.2kw ÷151.6g = 2.22 kw/g of usable cannabis. This is not an ideal ratio for me and looks like a lot of energy waste happened from the extended veg period. $35.67 ÷ 151.6g = 0.24c/g It cost 24c/g when comparing total electricity cost to gross yield, almost identical to the comparison of total electrical cost to the number of days in the grow 25c/day. Neat! legend, kwh = kilowatt per hour kw = kilowatt w = watt h = hour c = cents $ = dollars d = day LED= Light Emitting Diode

So the at the start of week 4 the girls have taken a beating from the pesticide that I spray on them, had to take off some dying fan leaves. the one plant is recovering nicely while her sister on the other hands need a close eye. This week the girls will get their first watering with actual noots

8th week , 4th of flora They are tall, strong and healthy Using the same fert proportions as vegetative stage. They reached 77cm tall

🍀✌️💚

The grow took 13 weeks and 3 days total, all my blue dream got harvested between 12-14 weeks, thats really good with the yield that comes of them

Flowers developed nicely and the first leafs are covered in trichomes already. I hope this progress will keep up for the next 30 days. Nutrients as scheduled by BioBizz. I added Alga-Mic and CalMag to get rid of the CalMag issue. So far, the spots on the leaves don’t become worse. Day 54: did some light defoliation to remove the yellow/burned leaves. Somehow, the deficit won’t go away. I think that my PH-Level is too high. But I can’t really test the drain water without a test kit. Maybe I will buy one Keep in touch! Cheers, HighZenBerg

03.14.23. Watered the plant with nutrients for the first time. I always wait till the second week to add nutrients. 03.18.23. Plants were ready for another water. This time I watered them 1 gallon per plant. Having the Coco in my pots the medium can handle 1 gallon without over watering the plant. I gave the plants their second dose of nutrients. MID WEEK REVIEW: Plants are looking healthy and are on there second nodes. Will start Low Stress Training (LST) next week. Thanks for tuning in to my grow diary see you Tuesday for end of week review. 03.21.23 END WEEK REVIEW: All 3 plants are growing very fast and are all looking great. I finally gave them all names so it’s easier to tell them apart as they grow and get moved around. Starting LST Tomorrow. Thanks for watching my plants grow. Happy growing everyone

After 24 hours in glass of water, I put the seeds 48 hours to germinate using the paper towel method inside the container you see in the photo. Then moved both germinated seeds (with a 1cm root) to the substrate. The 6th day they showed up in the surface as you see in the photos.

Here we go again. 2 criticals, bubba Cbd, and dinamed(from left to right) Still alot of work to be done to finalize the grow room. I now have to replicate this setup on the far side of the room only deeper, for flowering. The setup was built with diversity in mind. I should be able to switch to almost any recirculation style hydro in a matter of hours.

🗓️ WEEK 2 / DAYS 8-14 (flo) 💧 To tackle this week, I've increased the EC to 1.8, PH is nicely oscillating between 5.9 and 6.1. Her thirst is definitely increasing, as she's now drinking about 2.5 LT/day. 🌱 As early as day 10 of flowering she was already clearly showing preflowers – much earlier than any other photoperiod strains I've grown before, I'm really impressed! The plant seems to have undergone a complete metamorphosis and has become absolutely beautiful; you can really see it in the video I took on day 14 flo. Around mid-week, I did another round of defoliation – nothing too extreme, but it was necessary to improve air circulation and expose more of those preflower sites to the light. In terms of stretching, she shot up from 29 cm to 42 cm this week!

35.08.23-проведена масштабная дефолеация (примерно 40% листьев ) Продолжаю делать лст . Из проблем пш Корневой зоны 4 … вход 6.2 выход стабильно 4 пш и ниже ( Было принято решение промыть растение раствором слабой концентрации 20 литров и это не исправило ситуацию . Засола нет так как сток после промывки стал таким как и вход 960 ппм, Незнаю как исправить ситуацию с кислым дренажом и просто продолжаю работать как и раньше . Растение выглядит здоровым поэтому нет повода для сильных беспокойств

Was a pleasure to pull this lady this week. She is 3 days into drying. 18.3c RH 57-63% in a dark bathroom Buds are big and the plant itself you can smell from downstairs. House is filled with hints of Vanilla & fruity undertones. Extremely high Calyx to leaf ratio. More updates & pics coming and reports as it progresses. 20% off KANNABIAS amazing strains with code: ggst https://kannabia.com/feminized-cannabis-seeds/candy-cream-go-fast

Bueno, pues así se ve una planta revegetada. Se juntaron muchas condiciones para que en la balanza hormonal de floracion/vetetativo ganase el vegetativo. Primero el calor con +30°, a eso le sumamos las 14 horas de luz (aunque tuviese 14 de oscuridad) y finalmente y como colofón, los bloqueos nutricionales que provocaron que tirara del nitrogeno de reserva, lo cual todo junto hizo que prevaleciese el estado hormonal vegetativo frente al de floración y así es que no se llegaron a formar cogollos como tal. Cuando le quite las hojas a la hora de secarla veré la estructura que tiene pero tiene toda la pinta de ser una estructura suuper espigada. Esta planta la usaré principalmente para sacarle el polen a toooda, hojas e intentos de cogollos, ya una vez seca, con el Pollinator, hacerme hash con ella, y ademas, guardaré toda la parte que no es hoja para hacer comestibles, así tras sacarle el polen, esos comestibles que haga no serán tan killer como alguno que he hecho y mis amigos que no están acostumbrados a comerlos podrán tomarlos sin quedarse a dormir en casa 😂😂😂. Cuando arranque el cultivo de sus esquejes, ese si será 12/12. Por el momento, hasta que no salgan cosas nuevas o mas investigación sobre el 14/14 voy a quedarme en el 12/12, que he de reconocer una cosa respecto a mi experiencia de cultivo xD empecé por el tejado jajajaja las primeras fotoperiodicas que cultivé y pude cosechar las empecé a 14/14, aun no he tenido ocasión de hacer un cultivo a 12/12 satisfactorio 😂😂

Total days above ground: 63 Total flower nights: 24 Just beyond 3 weeks into flower and the plants are showing their potential. The Mountaintop Mint has made great strides but is still a lanky bitch. I had to HST every branch, and may need to bend a couple more down before vegetative growth abates. Not a fan of this growth pattern and still unhappy about 2 out of 9 seeds providing a viable outcome. The bright side is that yield should be fine given the plethora of bud sites. Despite being difficult to grow next to other plants, I feel much better about its prospective outcome than I did just 1 week ago. That whole "crazy shit can happen in flower" thing rings true, again. Overall the canopy has filled in nicely. I have a couple spots where light is wasted and I'll make some adjustments to the process to fix that for future grows. Now that I've settled on plant size and number of plants, improvements can be made each cycle until it's clockwork. I like the 12-cola vs 8 cola experiement. I've got a fairly long list of edits to make to various sections of my "bible," which means I liked the outcomes of most of my incremental adjustments. Continual, systematic improvement in action... One other incremental change on the docket but not yet realized will be dropping nutrient concnetration once vegetative growth ends. Exact timing will be based on what I see in the foliage. I see some minor tip curl and its a bit darker than I want. So, it may come sooner than later. This'll be something I tweak over the next few grow cycles until I'm happy with the late-flower health. I'll drop fertilizer concentration 10-15% on next refill and see how that plays out. It'll take a couple refills of reservoir to near 100% transition without draining it. If necessary, I'll drain and do a full refill for more pressing needs. A rez scrub before final stretch is coming, regardless. Side note: The impacts of VPD can be enormous. Last year (2025-2 diary) I had a humidifier wick get fouled and RH dropped while VPD spiked for more than a few days, thinking I could power through or that the canopy would soon provide more moisture. Nope, growth stalled in a significant way. By comparing day 34-42-49 of 2025-2 and day 38-42-49 of this diary, I can see a huge difference in growth at same point above ground. The consitency with which i do things makes it fairly certain it's the extende period with extremely high VPDs that caused the difference. Also, interesting that it mostly catches back up by completion of third week of flower. The size difference is nearly undone by this point, though 2025-2 took 4 days longer vege phase to get there. Even so, I still think this grow is more than 4 days ahead of 2025-2 (the difference in vegetative phae duration). Time will tell if the development is ahead of the pace in 2025-2 or whether it's simply mostly an offset due to a less efficient vege phase for 2025-2.

the whole week plant was preparing for the harvest I flushed, I did HST, just thrust in it with a knife (I spied on this method from Zurban_Poisonia, thanks to him for the idea) this should help release the resin. buds looks great! I think that cool for such light (it consumes 93 watts) Harvest will be coming soon

spring in germany is really something to be proud of. the sun has been shining beautifully for weeks. the plant like it too. (at least the ones with watering assistance) she is now a good 20cm high. she is stretching a bit but that's ok. it's a bit complicated to specify the exact fertilization scheme. i have a tank with 40 liters to which i have added the following HESI fertilizers. 150ml Hydro Grow, 150ml Root Complex, 80ml Powerzyme and 8 drops Super Vit. the 40 liters will last a very long time. i think i will only have to top up again in 4 weeks.
