This week has been great! 😁 Everything is going well... I really want to thank the GD Community for helping my first grow go so well. 🙏 Fingers crossed we can cruise to the finish line without any issues. Happy Growing! 💚💪🌱😎🌱💪💚

6/17: I am keeping things as is for the time being. The light is 20 inches from the plant at 350 PPFD on a 24 hour light schedule. Growth seems to be constant and picking up steam with tighter inter-nodal spacing at these settings. I plan to switch from the seedling light spectrum to a vegetative light spectrum once the second set of true leaves gets a bit more of its form. I will also change the light schedule from 24hr to 20/4. 6/19: Today marks the first day of the 20/4 light schedule using a vegetative light spectrum. All other conditions are the same. I'm still only spraying the soil once a day but feel by next week, I can up the feeding with a little calmag. We will see! 6/22: End of week two and things are looking great. I'm still a newb but I can see improvement in my strategy this grow. The plant is growing nicely and seems to be on a good pace. 6/21, I added in some calmag and upped the feeding amount. I also bumped my lighting up a bit too. I saw quick results as seen in the timelapse that day, as the leaves started to pray up. As of Sunday, all is well and so far this grow is exceeding my expectations! WEEK 2 AVG TEMP: 72.6F WEEK 2 AVG HUMIDITY: 74.3%

nice 😀

Welcome to week six! 🌱 Week five was a complete success – all parameters are perfectly aligned. I’ve increased the water conductivity to a solid 3000 and bumped the CO2 level up to 1200 🌿. Light intensity is now set at 1400 µmol in the center and 1000 at the edges, which will keep the plants strong in their generative state 🌞. I’ll maintain these levels until the end of the third week and then start slowly removing the large fan leaves to ensure the buds get plenty of light 💡✨. I’m also trying something new to activate the “Emerson effect” 🌄: I’m running the deep red lights for 5 minutes before sunset and for another 5 minutes after the day ends. This should give the plants a final boost in photosynthesis, helping to maximize their growth potential! Everything’s looking fantastic so far! The Black Cherry has rooted well across different experimental setups, and at the end of the grow, I’ll provide a full report on the best care techniques for both strains 🌺👌. Willkommen in Woche sechs! 🌱 Die fünfte Woche lief perfekt – alle Parameter stimmen. Ich habe die Leitfähigkeit des Wassers auf satte 3000 erhöht und den CO2-Gehalt auf 1200 angehoben 🌿. Die Lichtstärke beträgt jetzt 1400 µmol in der Mitte und 1000 am Rand, was dafür sorgen wird, dass die Pflanzen stark im generativen Zustand bleiben 🌞. Ich werde diese Werte bis Ende der dritten Woche beibehalten und dann langsam damit beginnen, die großen Sonnensegel zu entfernen, damit die Blüten ordentlich Licht abkriegen 💡✨. Zusätzlich probiere ich etwas Neues aus, um den „Emerson-Effekt“ zu aktivieren 🌄: Ich lasse das tiefrote Licht 5 Minuten vor Sonnenuntergang und 5 Minuten nach dem Ende des Tages weiterlaufen. Das sollte der Photosynthese einen letzten Schub geben und das Wachstum der Pflanzen maximal fördern! Bis jetzt sieht alles fantastisch aus! Die Black Cherry ist in verschiedenen Versuchsreihen gut angewachsen, und am Ende des Grows werde ich einen ausführlichen Bericht darüber abgeben, wie sich die beiden Sorten am besten pflegen lassen 🌺👌.

Flowering day 10 and the stretch starts to show. Defenitely had some CalMag issues but increasing the dose helped. Also read that the strain is quite CalMag hungry in general. STIXX50 is now at 80%.

Beginning of week 4(Bloom) Plant has been neglected for the past few days. I’ve been super sick since Friday. That being said picture quality this week will be less than preferred, not much effort was put into this since I’m feeling like trash. She’s looking good, a little droopy, I let her reservoir dry out for a day. She should bounce back well though. She’s really starting to produce crystals. This week I’m doubling the amount nutrients. Up until now I’ve only been feeding her at half the amount recommended by the manufacturer. I’m hooking up a 7 gallon reservoir this week as I’ll be on vacation for the next week and a half. I hope she does alright being completely unsupervised for that amount of time. Also I hope that my clones/mother survive the entire ordeal. No more vacations for a while. Thanks for checking out my diary. Good luck with your grow! 😊 Feb 26: Feeling better today, so I gave her some love/abuse and took some better pictures. This girl is beautiful and exploding. I cleaned a lot of the lower leaves/buds off. I should have stayed on top of it more while it was younger because I feel I took quite a bit off. It hurts to remove buds, even if they’re really small and won’t really amount to anything decent.

Had a hell of a week with Blue Dream 2. In the previous week I had added some molasses to the nutrient solution, 2 of the 3 plants took very well to it. However Blue Dream 2 got a real bad case of root rot. I ended up having to trim up the roots, and do a hard rinse on them. I flushed a bit with Hydrogen Peroxide and then let it soak in a resevoir with nothing but hydroguard for 36 hours. The other two had a small outbreak, but nothing near Blue Dreams 2. All in all a few days later she has recovered. Thats the biggest reason I added the tomato cages, blue dream 2, with weak stems already (got to find a silica supplement next run) she couldn't hold up the buds. After she recovered I just put the cages around all 3. I want to say 2 more weeks, but am still super green to all this, I'll post pics of the buds and tell me what you guys think. Cheers

Day 35 Shes really stepped up in the last week... look at her size😅 If i had some more space in the tent i think shes get even wider. Shes starting to show some pistils, wonder how much more she will stretch.

04/01/21 Amazing colours have came through during cure showing off her red and purple! And she’s frosty all over and tastes like a tropical dream!mango pineapple tones with a side of lime! Would defiantly recomiod Update; colours are coming through got some amazing hues just uploaded some vids 😍 Got the green pheno on both???! But it’s but either way I love this strain tastes a lot like the black cream auto I’ve done of sweet seeds too. So many colours in the bud and the flavour is immense throughout! Tastes like tropical mango and slight pineapple with a lovely pungent limeish taste it’s so nice and the high sent me to sleep when I tested the result! Just had to lay there and close my eyes and enjoy it and woke up to the end of my film ahahah would defiantly recommend Anyone growing very easy and amazing results!

Día 77 y final para esta Wedding Glue que ha brindado unos frutos hermosos!. Manicura y cosecha para posteriormente secar y curar estas densas y rocosas flores bañadas en brillantes tricomas, fragancias dulces tipo torta cubren todo el ambiente y una pegajosa capa de resina me impide abrir mis tijeras con facilidad, realmente una sabrosa cosecha! Volveré después del curado para dar un informe de cosecha detallado. Buenos Humos! 👽

Happy with the extra lights.

Goodbye see u soon!!!

Сегодня решил немного освободить от листьев 3 растения чтоб свет лучше проникал, большие сильные растения не трогал, думаю их через недельку тоже буду подстригать... как видно 1 растения вообще не удачное, 2 средние, а вот дальние 3 выглядят хорошо и думаю дадут отличный урожай... еще 3 недели цветения так что я думаю увеличатся еще сильно в объеме.

Day 77 i turned off the lights at 10 pm Friday and started my ice water flush and 48 hrs of darkness. i have not done ice water flush before, the theory is that the harsh cold forces the plant to build more trichomes to better prepare for pollination its an easy thing to do and takes no extra time so why not try it the water ppm is 435 and the first round run off was 1139 ppm second round of flush 789 ppm. the reason for 2 rounds of flush is in the first flush round the nute's latch onto the water and the second washes them away. i wait 15-20 min between flushes. that's it for today's update keep your stick on the ice Day 78 not much to say really water ppm is at 435 and runoff of round one for the day is 621 i will update with round 2 in an hr. UPDATE: ok so round 2 leaves it at 521 ppm Day 79 ok ppl this is the last day before harvest no water just ice ( i know it melts but its not much water lol ) oddly after over 48 hrs in the dark i have seen no change in the color of the plant it does not matter but i was hoping lol i took some pics for your viewing pleasure

Hey growers Day 35 This run is sponsored by VIPRASPECTRA LEDS XS4000 480W AND P2000 X2 400W TOTAL POWER RUNNING 880WATTS Hey guys and girls this week hasn't been the best I overwatered , underwatered and then underwatered again , shit these girls express some amount of water , I literally flooded there plants to get a somewhat of a recovery response which isn't going the quickest either , some roots where exposed ( small amount ) wow they look healty white and fuzzy looking with plenty of hairs which indicates the bio roots worked extremely well even the terra aquatica TRI PART as this is synthetic it has charge ions the plant will uptake (N) continuously if overdone I've held back on as I don't want to damage the root zone with a build up of salts as we will ruin any microbial life with salts locking out important nutrients uptake also Noticed the fade on some bottom leaves losing colour but I've been holding bk on (N) as some looked dark !! What to do next I'll take step by step and observe the situation for a while before acting to fast .seedbanks involved ZAMNESIA, E.T.S , RQS ZAMNESIA GORILLA GLUE AUTO This girl is growing pretty well with a good vigour even through this.bad week , staying pretty compact with an abundance of pistle formation indicates this is going to be decent size dense nugs and hopfully keep good airflow around these girls . The outsider gorilla glue over with the newer plants is hitting a good rebound, nothing special but not a total waste anyways which shows strong resistance overall which is a good incentive when picking which genicitis you would run in smaller space this is definitely the square ⬛ 10liter S.O.G / ScrOG method with these plants being smaller and Bushier GIRLS SCOUT COOKIE'S AUTO Growing the most compact with very big pistle formation 🙌 explosive pistle formation , I think using buddy from early flower in lower dosage has increase the amount of flower sites with abundance of pistles as this is starting to happen on all plants growing but these girls are taken that to the extreme and would also suit the 10liter square pot method RUNTZ AUTO girls are growing big and formation of lots of tops and lateral branching is great 👍 pistle formation isn't as quick bhy these girls didn't flip as quickly to flower , they did take the underwatering pretty bad plus some leaves being remove cause some more shock , lol its been a shit week but nothing we won't be able to fix over the next few days I need to start getting watering correct ROYAL QUEEN SEEDS DO SI DO AUTO . the girls aren't doing to bad and looking better after being dryer than normal when I underwatered them , needless to say there coming bk to life and branching out continues to go on forming lots of viable tops and plenty of flower sites , might be a slow starter but never let that full you EMERALD TRIANGLE SEEDS BLUEBERRY AUTO yes this girl is doing well , the other sister looks like a basil plant and nothing much will come of her . I can't wait to try this girl out and most of the seeds I had 4 blueberry I only got one viable seed , disappointed but the one that's growing is doing well so the taste is what will sway my decision HEADLIGHT KUSH AUTO doing well and getting to a good size and keeping on par with the ZAMNESIA seeds this is a good strain LEMON HAZE AUTO hopfully I'll contain any stretching untill the girls reach SCROG height So hopfully the girls will do better from today and I can update with these girls praying 🙏 again

Beginning of week.. This is the last and final week for sure for sure lol.. That makes 10 weeks from 12/12.. And by the trichomes they should both be prefect!.. With the Mandarin Cookiea having just a tad bit more amber than the ETHOS Cookies.. They both should have plenty.. This week may be cut a day short.. Because the only day I can find time to harvest will be the day before the next week starts.. The last day of the week (end of week).. And I want to go ahead and try the 48 hours of darkness thing once more.. To see if it may have any effect.. I guess if alot of people already do it.. What can it hurt??.. Anyways.. Still just giving rainwater.. Lately it has gone down on the PPM side.. Niceeee.. I was going to get some distilled and run it through (0 - 10 PPM) but the rainwater is at 15 - 17 PPM.. That's close enough for me.. Maybe still run a gallon of distilled the day before I begin the 48 hours of darkness thing-a-ma-doodle lol.. Today.. This is what happened... Going in: 17 PPM at 6.9 pH for both.. Run off: Mandarin Cookies was 100 PPM at 5.9 pH and the ETHOS Cookies was 54 PPM at 6.0 pH.. I think the Mandarin Cookies needs to be flushed a bit more before I feel comfortable with the flushing.. I believe its fine to not flush for a whole 2 weeks at 0 PPM or whatever.. But I do like to get it down pretty low by harvest time.. But I think everything will be fine.. Just gotta make sure I dont fuck up the drying 😬😬😬 Mid week.. Almost there!!! So excited! Can't wait! Got both runoffs at 50 PPM.. Just been watering as usual.. Both of these strains are going to be epic af! I think tomorrow will be the last day of lights on.. Going to begin the pre-harvest dark period to hopefully increase trichome/thc production or whatever it does 😂😂😂 if this bud ends up better than anything I've ever grown then I will do it every grow!.. But we shall see!!! End of week.. No pics this update.. They are both bathing in complete darkness for a couple days then CHOP!... Haven't even peaked at them.. They both should be on point! So happy for this to be just days away from going into jars!!! I've already cut a small branch from the Mandarin Cookies and dried it for 5 days.. A little faster then I wanted.. But wow.. It tasted immaculate.. I removed every leaf I could.. Leaving just the calyxes.. No chlorophyll.. Not really enough to get a buzz from.. Plus that was like 2 weeks ago.. So it was still too early for any decent amounts of THC.. But the taste is delicious af!.. I will take some pics before the chop and post them for the "end of this week" since it is going to be a day early anyway.. End of week.. Nvm lol.. Took some pics before harvesting and here they are! Even a sneak peak at the drying in the tent.. May be awhile till I post the harvest.. Want to make sure I give the best review on these ladies as I can! Hells yeah!!! So dank!

Haven't seen too much calyx formation yet, just a lot of stretching. Waiting on the purple too🧐 I've been pruning out lower branches and leaves hanging close to the ground to help keep air flowing and humidity down, especially near her stalk.

I did her first water change on day 10 upped the nutrient dose and increased the reservior to 12 gallons. Gave her the first dose of armor si and humic acid. I topped her on day 12 to start 4 main branches. Will most likely top again and start training in about a week depending on how she wants to grow. She is the slowest growing plant so far but I have high hopes for her. The goal is a maximum of 5 weeks veg if they cooperate. They are under 240w qb and a galaxyhydro pulling about 140w for now. Will be adding more qb when I spread the buckets out.

Comenzamos la semana de floración con una gran poda de bajos dejando estas con forma de palmera o Chupa Chups. En el día de hoy le bajé dos horas al horario de vegetación de 18/6 a 16/8 en los siguientes días bajo dos horas así hasta alcanzar el 12/12 de manera gradual. Hoy se aplicará un riego de vitaminas y entaizante. 17/3/26 Aquí seguimos con las pequeñas algunas mejor otras peor.. pero todas sanas. Seguimos controlando el espacio de cultivo de la mejor manera posible. Una ec 1350 un ph 6,2 Forman el esquema de alimentación de esta semana a partir de la siguiente pegaremos una subida gradual hasta llegar al tope de las niñas. 20/3/26 Seguimos con un avance espectacular! Las niñas crecen de una manera espectacular! Muy contento con los avances en este cultivo! Esperemos que la floración sea igual de vigorosa .. Pero ya sabemos que hay mil factores,que pueden alterar el producto final,aquí seguiremos mejorando con cada uno!
