03.22.23. Start Week 3. Today i started the Low Stress Training on the plants. I first carefully start to bend the plant kinda massaging the plants and making the plants softer and easier to bend down. I then tie the base on one end to keep the plant from snapping, and bend the plant the opposite direction and tie it down. I will continue this daily until flower starts to create a perfect even top canopy. End of week Review. All 3 plants seem to be reacting well to the nutrients and LST they are getting. Also the few leave trimmings seemed to go well with them all. I have officially named the plants. There names are Megan, Lucille, and Alien. Very excited for these plants to start there flowering stage

The nutrients on here are only for the LA Divas and the mutants, not for the critical. That's still only on 2ml/l growth boom atm. The LA's are coming on beautifully, and starting to get faster and faster. The indoor especially. It seems to be going through a crazy fast growth boom. Preflowers everywhere! The crirical is looking amazing. Please stay tuned for that naughty girl after the harvest of the LA's and mutants. Day 33 40cm L.A Diva Indoor 21cm L.A Diva Outdoor Critical 28 cm. 2 mutants are about 10 cm tall. Probably not worth keeping but I may as well, they're Alive and flowering, and very strong and sturdy. Why not.

🌱 Harvest & Cure Begins Harvest is complete, and today marks the beginning of the curing process. This run taught me a lot about Fruity Durban. From the very beginning, it showed exceptional vigor and recovered incredibly well from topping and training. Its strong sativa-like growth and rapid flowering make it a very interesting cultivar. Looking back, I think I initially evaluated this cultivar from the perspective of a home grower running a single large Living Soil plant. After discussing it with Simon, I realized that Fruity Durban’s greatest strengths probably lie elsewhere. Its speed, vigor and growth habit make it particularly well suited for commercial SOG cultivation, where fast turnover and plant uniformity are major advantages. Seen from that perspective, I understand much better why this cultivar deserves its place in the Serious Seeds catalogue. The drying phase has now been completed, and the flowers have entered curing. My first impressions are already very promising: 🌸 Pink pepper 🍊 Fresh citrus 🌿 Herbal notes reminiscent of sage The effect is already clear, uplifting and energizing, making it a great daytime smoke. I’m very curious to see how the aroma and flavor will evolve over the coming weeks, as curing often reveals the true character of a cultivar. A huge thank you to Serious Seeds for giving me the opportunity to test and document this variety from seed to cure. 💚

Finishing final week before the flip to flower. All three ladies looking great. Swapped out taller legs for plant stand supporting Napali Pink (NPK, 13"), compared to The Bling (17") and Mimosa (15"). I pulled all smaller nodes starting at base and working up to 1/2/3 nodes, trying to maintain a tight node spacing for future bud development. Eliminated sucker branches. Released tension wire holding down NPK to get her to catch up with other two. I should have potted up, but plan to tomorrow (Day 2 of Week 1 Flower) to their finishing size of 7 gal fabric pots. Expecting some excellent root growth, resulting in hopefully bigger buds! Mimosa - she was the one to have first caught Powdery Mildew, having accidentally left her outside when I transplanted a few weeks ago. Sprayed her down well with potassium bicarbonate/veg oil/Dawn/water solution. Eliminated PM, but some leaves burned in process. Nevertheless, she bounced back well. She is also the tallest in the bunch at 18" tall. Napali Pink (NPK) - she was added in about a week after the other two; Hawaiian cultivar of Hindu Sun/Kauai Electric/Alaskan Thunderfuck; she is also the most hardiest and was the only plant to not get PM! Attribute that to her tropical roots, making her less susceptible to PM. She is the shortest at 13". Changed out the legs of the plant stand to accommodate and bring her up to same height as others. The Bling - this one surprised me big-time! I was ruling her out initially, after suffering some bad trauma (her main stalk was damaged), which caused her to grow 3-blade leaves! Weeks passed and she bounced back. She also contracted PM, but not as bad. A very lanky strain, with some weird node spacing. Trying to tighten up by defoliating to top node on all stems. She responded well and has since started to grow normally again, with 7-blade leaves.

| 📅 Week 8 | Days 50 - 56 | 💡 750w 📏26' | | ☔ 33%-45% | | 🌡️️🌞 75 - 81 | | 🌡️️🌑 70 - 75 | 12/28: I did a reservoir swap on all the plants and adjusted their PHs to 5.8. Humidity was getting really low So I added some containers with water and a towel dipped in to act like a wick to increase the RH. The smell has started to get noticeable so Ill have to be adding the carbon filter sooner. 12/29: Humidity has responded well and has increased to near desired levels. All reservoirs were topped off and had their PH's adjusted to 6 because they have been dropping low lately. Moved the SCROG placements a bit and adjusted the fans as well. Refilled the ambient containers of water for RH levels. 12/30: Reservoirs were topped and although only one needed a noticeable amount. All reservoirs have dropped low again and have been adjusted to 6 to compensate once more. The humidity has reached desired levels and is being stable thankfully! 02/31: I removed a few containers of water because the RH has become fairly stable. The reservoirs were of course topped off, but today they were adjusted to a PH of 5.8 instead of 6 like the last few days. Adjusted the SCROG a small amount. The plants are showing severe Mag deficiency and I will be doubling their nutrient schedule ASAP I just fear the Nitrogen toxicity, but at this points its way better than a this Cal/Mag def. 01/01: Happy New Years!! I have set up the Carbon filter because the smell is getting very noticeable. I swapped out the back right non-focus plants reservoir with the doubled nutrients and added great white mycorrhizae as well. The Focus plant and the other had their reservoirs topped of with tap water then PHed to 5.8. 01/02: I adjusted the PHs of all the plants to 5.8 after topping them off with tap water. I also adjusted the SCROG a slight bit and removed some old foliage. The RH levels are still in the acceptable rage for my setup so I will just refill the open containers and not add/remove any of them. - 01/03: 2 of the plants including the focus plant had their reservoirs topped off. All of the plants had their reservoirs adjusted to 5.8PH. The RH dropped a slight bit, so I mixed some PHed tap water with CaliMagic to make foliar spray. Its not enough to compensate the lack of Mag in the Nutrient schedule. Tomorrow (Jan 4th) the plants will have their nutrients increased to resolve the issues. Unfortunately I didn't have enough time in the last week to do it sooner. _____________________________________________________ This marks the end of week 8! The nutrients will be increased tomorrow and I have a feeling the next few weeks are going to show the Focus Plants buds getting plump and dark much like its non-focus plant counterparts. The focus plant has undeniably shown its Purple phenotype at this point so that mystery has been resolved. The only questions now is how fast will these plants react to the increased nutrients and bounce? I have faith in these plants to put out a respectable harvest and i'm already looking forward to future runs with this strain now that I am more acquitted to it. All of the plants will be using Great White Mycorrhizae starting with their swaps tomorrow. Feel free to leave comments/questions below or give me any feedback to improve my diaries. If you like this Diary follow along and check out my others as well 😎

In der sechsten Blütewoche haben sich die Blüten weiter verdichtet und an Größe zugenommen. Die Pflanze profitiert sichtbar von der erhöhten Lichtintensität und den zusätzlichen Netzen, die für Stabilität sorgen. Das Scrogging hat sich als äußerst effektiv erwiesen, da alle Blüten gleichmäßig Lichlt erhalten und sich prächtig entwickeln. Die Pflanze wirkt insgesamt sehr vital, und die Blütenstände zeigen eine schöne Harzbildung, was auf eine erfolgreiche Ernte hoffen lässt.

Sat 7/8: - Transplanted a runted Purple Lemonade auto into a small plastic pot (1/2 litre), from 3 gal fabric pot. Put it back in the veg tent where there is more room. It is wasting space in the flowering tent. Suspect over watering early on as issue. - Shifted a Grapefruit auto from the veg tent to the flowering tent to replace the Purple Lemonade. A little early, so it is on a pedestal to reach the canopy. - Planted a Fastberry and a Gorilla Cookie auto. - Harvested 20g wet from the CBD20:1 (8w). Sun 8/8: - Changed light cycle from 18/6 to 20/4. - Fed plants, varying mixture by plant age. CBD20:1 is now only on water at every feed. - Tied main stem down on Grapefruit auto (3w). - Set up endoscope camera to capture the Grapefruit response to LST. - Continued lollipopping Strawberry Pie (5w) and Kosher Cake(4w). Tues 10/8: - both the Gorilla Cookie and the Fastberry seeds popped. I’ve put them under icecream containers in the veg tent so they don’t dry out too quickly. Wed 11/8: - Small targeted watering with no feed. Thurs 12/8: - feed plants that needed to be watered. Sat 14/8: - Harvested the remaining CBD20:1 at 9 weeks, 73g wet - Harvested undersized Lemon Pie at 8 weeks, 26g wet. - Planted a Gelato auto and a Wedding Cheesecake auto from Fast Buds.

This was a fun first week. All 12 plants showed good growth. I had to support to three of the plants to ensure they didn't bend over. It was nothing serious, but I thought it was a prudent move. I'm not seeing any deformed leaves. All 12 are showing a nice uniform growth. Some are further along than others, but I attribute that to different germination dates; some are just a day or two older than their siblings. I'm being careful not to overwater them. When I did water them, I added a little Bloom Roots and Dyna Gro KLN. That should promote good root development. It was fun watching these plants griw strong during their first week of life! I didn't have any problems, and I can't wait to see how they progress.

I started with three Blackberry Moon Rock seeds, and two of them sprouted – awesome! These girls are loving life, reaching for the sky as the tallest plants in my tent. They're already about six inches tall, and they're taking up all the nutrients very well without any nute burn. Both blackberry moonrocks plants are very similar height although they have very different looks to them. The one of the 2 definitely going ti strech alot more than the other. One has internodes about 1 cm apart rn and the other is about 3/4 to 1 inch between nodes. Happy late turkey day grow diaries world!!!! It's now day 24 from seed for all the seedlings I have going. The past few days the plants have really started to take off. There roots have really started to dig in. Every other water I am still giving 2ml per gal of fox farm grow big. I keep having to tell myself not to add any more nutes other than that. I don't want to fry my plants but I also want they to start jumping. I'm quite excited for the coming week, I think the next 7 days or so is when the plant really starts to transform and look more like a pot plant than just some random little green thing. A few days ago I decided to move the plants from under my 55w cheep amazon light to under my spider farmer 100w newer version light with the good leds in it. The plants will hopefully be ready to up pot them here soon and get them in the large tent. Sometimes when growing multiple different strains it can be really hard to balance giving to much or to little light. You don't want the faster growing plants to get to stretched out waiting on the slower plants to catch up I spend Thanksgiving day morning transplanting the plants into 2gal pots. I am useing spme promix potting soil it's my 1st time tring this soil. It is actually doing really well the roots were all white and nice looking. I think next time I'm going to add some worm casting, kelp, granular mycos, and a little bit extra perlite. I just didn't have the money with christmas coming to splurge for all the extra stuff. I got rid of 2 plants 1 of the bubble og and 1 skunk apple runtz. There is only room for 10 pots in the 2x4 tent. I will peob only bring 8 of them to flower, always good to have back ups. Yesterday I also stuck the plants back under the 500w medicgrow mini sun 2 in my 2x4 tent. They did great under it the 2nd half the day I was happy they didn't get stressed. I had put them under that light a little early about 10 days ago or so. I am expecting in a week these plants will ge going crazy with growth

On day 169 I did the final flush on both ladies. I went through about 6 gallons per lady. The final runoff measured at around 400 PPM. Right around where I wanted to be. In my previous grows I did not flush as thoroughly, I'll see if I can even tell any difference and if it's worth it. I started the 48 hour period of darkness of day 171 (flower for 72 days). I chopped and hung the buds on day 173. I expect it to take about 7 days for the stems to start snapping when bent. Wanda weighed in at 659 grams on harvest day with stems and leaves. Wilma weighed in at 731 grams on harvest day with stems and leaves. I am estimating I'll end up harvesting and jarring over 15% of the bud wet weight. So around 200 grams. I ended up trimming all the large fan leaves before I hung the flowers to dry. My hands got very sticky while just handling the stems and cutting leaves. Will update once the buds are dry and I've tried some of the bud. Can't wait!

As every one says, less is more with nutrients! I think I got a bit excited as it was my first grow. Already leaves my lesson and my outdoor photoperiod girls are looking great ! Check out the diary:) can’t fault it really. Minimal effort and minimal cash spent! Got just under half an ounce of product and bearing in mind I had to throw some of the buds away due to bud rot! I think another week of flush would have been great for them to!
