Day 43 All four ladies are now in flower mode. They are still looking healthy but the fight against aphis continues. I've tried garlic a few times but they keep coming, so now I am going to make a tomato leaf mixture. I've read garlic chases everything, but tomato leaves chase only the bad bugs. Tonight I will water with plain water with a ph of about 6.5, then give them a stronger dose of nutes for its current stage of growth this Saturday. Day 45 Did a bit more LST on Sour Diesel, Diesel and Royal Kush. They all got the full treatment today, I watered them with nutes and after a bit I sprayed neem oil to deal with the aphids. Day 48 Everything is still looking really nice. I sprayed some Bioneem Oil a little while ago and left it from there. I've been going every night picking off the bugs, but with the neem I've left it to see if they still try. Each day I do a little training to make sure the growth is guided. Day 50 We are on the last day of this week and I'm just amazed at the growth. My previous auto grows were just sad and nowhere near as good a looking as these. The neem seems to be working ok I guess, but I have only sprayed once. I want to get a solid schedule going with watering, nutrients and pest control. I was going to water twice but the grow medium holds water really well. Saturday = Nutrients Monday = Pest control Wednesday = Water

All Girls matured and went to drying this week. I will include an harvest report once dried.

02.10.2022 - 56 days since my little girl sprouted from seeds🌱 Fourth week of flowering for my Bruce Lemon Diesel 🍋⛽🌻 Nutrients: Jungle Indabox - I serve the same as last week Advanced Nutrientiens - Bud Candy - carbohydrates for my plants 🍭🍭 Building Stimulators 🌼🌼🌼: Jungle Indabox Environ X Advanced Nutrientiens - Big Bud - I applied this week for the last time ATAMI - ATA CALMAG - When growing under LED lights it is recommended to use Calmag and Atami is an excellent brand The plants tolerate the nutrients well, some of the lower leaves showed slight signs of burning, they turned a little yellow and the tips of the leaves were brown 🍃🍃 Therefore, I will continue to use only one Bud Stimulator and that - Jungle Indabox Environ X, I will leave Big Bud from Advanced Nutrientiens for other plants. Training: Defoliation: I still remove the large and lower leaves so that they do not shade themselves 🌞🌞 I'm not planning a bigger defoliation until next week, the girls are a little leafy, but not enough to need more trimming 🌴🌴 General: The girl is already blooming strongly, dense buds are forming 🌸🌸, the branches reach the same height, exactly as I wanted 👍 At the moment it has more leaves than I would like, but I will do more defoliation later, as I wrote 🍃 I will adjust the nutrients from the next watering, I will leave the only bud stimulator 🏵️ 🏵️ The girl no longer grows tall, she puts all her strength and energy into her buds 🌸 Light: Believe - the best light of sponsor Mars Hydro TS 1000 💡💡 Smell: The whole box already smells a lot, the smells mix and flow out of the box, when I open the tent, I get a strong smell of flowering cannabis 🍇⛽🍬 Thanks for your opinions, smile and fun with my diary, you can follow me on Twitter 🐦: @targona666 See you soon 😍

Flushed her with 30ltr and put her on dragon force and sumo boost. Going to give her one more feed then start a long as possible flush. Trichomes are just becoming Amber so I reckon by next week it'll be time for flush, if not I'll just give her another feed with the dragon force&sumoboost She's already fattened up a bit this week and the main cola is rock solid now. Lower branches are catching up on density too.

Shes a stinker and a stunner. 👻👽💀 My watering schedule got a bit out of whack so she began eating herself a bit, but nothing a good dose of some nutes and ye old reliable, calmag, shouldnt be able to fix Watering is still 6L, 6PH, 5ml/L bloom, introduced her to green sensation this week, and a healthy dose of calmag to repair my inconsistent schedule (its magic, dont ask) did some minor defoliation of the worst evidence of my neglect that sprung to my eye. but other than that, ill just call it fade 😎😎😎 Jokes aside, she IS developting some nice colors. 😍

Placing a dehumidifier or humidifier in the grow box turned out to be ineffective when both devices have their own automated settings. For instance, a humidifier set to 55% humidity works within a ±5% range, meaning it waits until the humidity drops below 50% to turn on and runs until it hits 60%. Since its sensor refreshes every 30 seconds, it might show 54% one moment and jump to 61% the next—not exactly stable at 55%. The dehumidifier behaves similarly. To achieve more consistent results, it’s better to rely on a hygrometer inside the grow box and use “dumb” devices that simply turn on when powered. Connecting these devices to smart outlets provides more precise control. For manual control, I maintained around 55% humidity by turning the humidifier and exhaust fan on and off via phone. Most moisture and aroma are released during the first three days, then taper off. The common rule of “when thin branches snap, it’s dry” led me to overdry my buds. A more reliable method is to monitor the hygrometer. When humidity stabilizes after the initial rise, wait one more day and then jar the buds. Rehydrating Overdried Buds: Overdried buds can be revived with a small piece of mandarin (or orange) peel, about 2.5x2.5 cm. Thoroughly wash the peel (even sanitize it if needed), cut a square, and place it on top of the buds in the jar. In my experience, this brought the humidity from 46% to 62% within 4 hours. Afterward, burp the jars for 15 minutes and monitor the hygrometer. If the humidity drops below 55%, return the peel for a few more hours. Once stable at 60-62%, remove the peel and continue curing, burping the jars twice daily for 15 minutes. As for humidity packs like Integra Boost or Boveda, I used them because I had some lying around. These packs are designed for 12 grams of product, so they don’t make a big difference in larger jars. If you burp jars daily and gently rotate the buds, they’re not really necessary. Trimming and Results: After 7 days of drying, I decided to trim dry this time. It turned out to be somewhat more convenient—everything gets covered in resin anyway, but the remaining leaves easily fall off, speeding up the process. I went for a tight trim, removing as much as possible. During the process, I felt disappointed seeing how little remained on the branches. The buds turned out airy and small, and I started cursing American genetics halfway through the trim. However, when it came to weighing, the results were surprisingly decent. Considering the buds' poor appearance, they’re not going to impress anyone visually, so it might have been easier to shred everything and use it for extraction. I don’t have extraction equipment, so I’ll make cannabutter from the trim, and the buds can rest in jars for now. Takeaways: Use a proper hygrometer for humidity control, not built-in sensors on humidifiers or dehumidifiers. Overdried buds can be easily rehydrated with citrus peel. Daily burping and rotation are sufficient for curing without humidity packs. Dry trimming can be faster and more convenient but may highlight issues with bud density. Despite underwhelming appearance, high resin content makes the strain great for extraction.

🌱 Week 2 Report: The Journey Evolves 🌱 Grow Fam, the adventure is in full swing! 🌟 The Gorilla Melon from Fast Buds is out and shining its light, and the Papaya Zoap has made its debut in the Cannakan, bringing with it a story that adds even more depth to this incredible run. When the universe speaks, we listen. 🍈✨ I didn’t plan on popping Papaya Zoap from Sweet Seeds just yet, but sometimes things just have a way of aligning. After a few other seeds didn’t germinate, I felt an inner pull toward this special strain. As it turns out, the universe had something beautiful in mind! Just days later, my brother @daggadna also began germinating the same genetics—gifted to us during Spannabis. Was it a coincidence? I don’t think so. 🌱 This is more than just a grow now—it’s a journey with purpose, guided by synchronicity and connection. I can already feel the magic building up with this one, and I can’t wait to see where this road takes us! Now, onto the Papaya Zoap… something tells me this plant is going to take us on a ride we didn’t expect but absolutely needed. 💚 Let’s make something incredible, Brother Dagga—this one’s going to be legendary. Gear Updates: All Systems Go 🚀 This week, everything’s dialed in perfectly with the TrolMaster system. Shout out to the incredible DSH-2U Humidity Station! 🌬️ This tool is giving me precision control over the RH (relative humidity) ranges in the room, keeping the environment just right for my babies. Having that accurate readout and control allows me to maintain optimal levels for each stage of growth. It’s like magic—you plug it in, set the desired ranges, and let it do its thing! 🌡️ By monitoring and adjusting humidity levels on-the-fly through the TrolMaster app, I can ensure the environment remains stable, and that means happier plants and healthier growth! No more guessing games. From anywhere—whether I’m working in the garden or chilling out—I can track and tweak it all. Heck, I could be on the toilet and still have complete control over my room! 😂 The AMP-3 Precision Meter has been running 24/7 in my water solution, giving me real-time updates so I can make any corrections when needed, right from my phone. This tech has taken my grow to another level. ✨ Nutrition Update: Keeping It Balanced 🍃 As for feeding, we’re sticking with the basics to give the plants what they need, without overloading. Right now, I’m running: • Regulator: 0.15ml/l • Startbooster: 0.25ml/l For now, I feel like this is the sweet spot—just enough to encourage root development and early growth without overloading them. I’ll be adjusting the feed as we go deeper into the grow, keeping an eye on how they respond. You know me, always tweaking and improving along the way!

07/09: Transplanted Red Mandarine into 7 gal and both CCCBD & Do-si-do went into 5 gals. Fed all the plants as well with just Herb Thrive Veg Planted two Auto Bubblegums from T.H Seeds as well.

err. she keeps short but buds are alredy visible, i mean the start. no big problems, all nutrients are in ger section, if not other mentioned by manufactors instrucktions.

🌸 Blütetag 22 | Tag 66 gesamt 🌸 Gestern wurde ordentlich gelollipopt – und da kam schon einiges runter. Der Stretch trudelt jetzt langsam aus… zumindest fühlt es sich endlich so an. 😄 Jetzt dürfen die Damen langsam anfangen, richtig Gewicht und Masse aufzubauen. Und besonders die letzten 7–10 Tage waren komplett verrückt. Vor allem die Fruit Bomb Punch hat nochmal völlig den Turbo gezündet. Ehrlich gesagt habe ich selten erlebt, dass eine Pflanze innerhalb so kurzer Zeit nochmal so eskaliert. Die war am Anfang nach heißem Soil, Spruzit-Stress und dem Topping sogar die empfindlichste Kandidatin im Feld – und inzwischen thront sie mitten über allem. Komplett wild. 🚀 Die Chicken & Waffles und die Fruit Bomb Punch liegen jetzt beide ungefähr bei 1,10–1,12 m, wobei die Fruit Bomb mittlerweile leicht die Führung übernommen hat und mitten im Zelt über allem steht. Und das auch nur, weil sie inzwischen schon drei Clips bekommen hat, um sie seitlich runterzuziehen – quasi Supercropping ohne richtiges Supercroppen. Ohne diese Clips wäre sie wahrscheinlich inzwischen irgendwo bei 1,25 m, 1,30 m oder vielleicht noch höher angekommen. Absolut wahnsinnig, wie die abgegangen ist. Man merkt einfach, dass sie trotz Topping am Ende komplett Richtung Triebmonster tendiert. Einer der beiden Haupttriebe hat sich deutlich dominanter entwickelt als der andere und zieht jetzt brutal nach oben. Dazu kommt dieser Geruch… die Fruit Bomb Punch heißt wirklich nicht ohne Grund so. 🍓💥 Das ist inzwischen eine legitime Fruchtbombe. Extrem laut, extrem intensiv und komplett raumfüllend. Wahrscheinlich das stärkste und aggressivste Terpenprofil im ganzen Run bisher. Die Strawberry AK bleibt dagegen weiterhin die absolute Bilderbuchpflanze im Feld. Kompakt, buschig, brutal gesund und voller Budsites. Von der reinen Höhe hat sie gegen die beiden Monster zwar keine Chance, aber genau das macht sie spannend: Sie hat unglaublich viele kräftige Seitentriebe und Budsites aufgebaut – ehrlich gesagt deutlich mehr als die Fruit Bomb Punch. Deshalb könnte sie am Ende sogar heimlich das eigentliche Ertragsmonster werden. Nicht über Höhe, sondern über pure Masse und Struktur. 😄 Nach dem Lollipoppen habe ich sie deshalb auch etwas auf einen Topf hochgebockt, damit sie besser mit ins Canopy kommt und die vielen Tops ordentlich Licht bekommen. Ihre Struktur ist einfach wahnsinnig sauber. Eigentlich musste man an der Pflanze bisher kaum etwas machen. Auch die Chicken & Waffles entwickelt sich inzwischen zum absoluten Monster. Trotz untoppter Struktur hat sie extrem viele schöne Seitentriebe hochgezogen und steht überraschend eben im Canopy. Dafür, dass sie nie getoppt wurde, ist das schon ziemlich beeindruckend. Diese riesigen Internodienabstände, die anfangs fast schon zu wild wirkten, sorgen jetzt dafür, dass überall Licht tief in die Pflanze fällt und die Seitentriebe brutal mitziehen. Terpentechnisch entwickeln sich die drei Damen mittlerweile ebenfalls komplett unterschiedlich: Die Fruit Bomb Punch ist einfach pure Frucht und komplett laut. Die Strawberry AK geht eher in eine cremigere, weichere Candy-Fruchtrichtung. Und die Chicken & Waffles bleibt bisher eher würzig unterwegs. Auch technisch läuft der Run aktuell erstaunlich entspannt. Die Dripper laufen konstant morgens, mittags und abends – besser geht’s eigentlich kaum. Die Pflanzen wirken super stabil versorgt und gerade in dieser explosiven Phase scheint ihnen das richtig gutzutun. Temperaturtechnisch ist ebenfalls noch alles im Rahmen, auch wenn die Luftfeuchtigkeit inzwischen langsam etwas anzieht. Aber bei der Blattmasse und dem Wachstum wundert das mittlerweile auch nicht mehr. 😄 Gesundheitlich sieht der Run aktuell wirklich top aus. Eigentlich gibt es nichts Auffälliges außer der ganz normalen Aufhellung im Verlauf der Blüte. Keine echten Probleme, keine größeren Mängel – genau so darf’s weitergehen. 🙏 Jetzt heißt es: Budstacking, Gewicht und hoffentlich nicht komplett ans Zeltdach wachsen. 😅 Am Ende entscheidet das Glas. 🍯 Grow on 🌱 Flower Day 22 | Day 66 overall 🌸 Yesterday was lollipopping day — and quite a lot came off. The stretch finally seems to be slowing down now… at least it feels like it. 😄 From here on, the ladies can hopefully start focusing more on proper bud stacking, weight and mass. And honestly, the last 7–10 days have been completely insane. Especially the Fruit Bomb Punch absolutely hit the turbo again. I rarely see a plant explode that hard within such a short time. Early on she was actually the most sensitive plant in the tent after the hot soil mix, the Spruzit stress and the topping — and now she completely dominates the middle of the canopy. Absolute madness. 🚀 The Chicken & Waffles and the Fruit Bomb Punch are now both sitting around 1.10–1.12 m tall, although the Fruit Bomb has slightly taken the lead and now towers above everything else in the center of the tent. And that’s only because she already got three clips to pull her sideways — basically supercropping without actually supercropping. Without those clips she would probably be somewhere around 1.25 m, 1.30 m or maybe even higher by now. Just crazy how hard she stretched. You can really tell that despite the topping she still wants to become one giant dominant shoot monster. One of the two main tops clearly became much stronger than the other and is now absolutely blasting upwards. And then there’s the smell… the Fruit Bomb Punch truly deserves her name. 🍓💥 This thing is a legitimate fruit bomb. Extremely loud, extremely intense and completely fills the room. Probably the strongest and most aggressive terp profile in the entire run so far. The Strawberry AK, on the other hand, remains the absolute textbook plant of the run. Compact, bushy, incredibly healthy and completely packed with budsites. Height-wise she can’t compete with the two monsters, but that’s exactly what makes her so interesting: she built an insane amount of strong side branches and budsites — honestly way more than the Fruit Bomb Punch. So she might secretly become the true yield monster in the end. Not through height, but through pure mass and structure. 😄 After lollipopping I even raised her slightly on top of a pot so she can stay better within the canopy and get more light to all those tops. Her structure is just ridiculously clean. Honestly, she barely needed any work during the whole grow. The Chicken & Waffles is also turning into a complete monster by now. Despite being completely untopped she developed tons of beautiful side branches and created a surprisingly even canopy. For an untopped plant, that’s seriously impressive. Those huge internodal gaps that initially looked almost too wild are now allowing light to penetrate deep into the plant and all the side branches are exploding as well. Terp-wise the three ladies are also separating more and more now: The Fruit Bomb Punch is just pure loud fruit. The Strawberry AK leans into a creamier, softer candy-fruit direction. And the Chicken & Waffles currently stays more on the spicy side. Technically the run is also going surprisingly smooth right now. The drippers are running consistently morning, noon and evening — honestly couldn’t ask for much better. The plants seem extremely stable and happy with it, especially during this explosive phase of growth. Temperature-wise things are still under control too, although humidity is slowly starting to creep up. But with this amount of leaf mass and growth, that’s hardly surprising anymore. 😄 Health-wise the run currently looks really great overall. Basically nothing concerning besides the normal lightening during flower progression. No real deficiencies, no major problems — exactly how you want things to go. 🙏 Now it’s time for bud stacking, weight gain and hopefully not completely growing into the tent roof. 😅 In the end, the jar decides. 🍯 Grow on 🌱

Buenas noticias para esta semana. 1. La semana pasada comenté que tenía una planta desordenada, pues no me había percatado que la karpa tenía un orificio abierto en el techo y estaba entrando contaminación lumínica cuando dormía y por eso estaba débil. 2. Un loco que sabe más que yo, me dijo que las puntas amarillas es algo bueno en mis plantas y no algo malo, por lo que están saludables. 3. Las flores tuvieron un gran avance y ya se notan de mejor tamaño y un excelente aroma. 4. El calor y la humedad hacen que cada planta consuma 2 lts de líquido al día. 5. Voy a iniciar Pk1314 esta semana que sigue. Malas noticias 1. Ya no tengo mota seca jajaj Buenos humos

She's growing to be cute and fuzzy so far. Not expecting her to be any bigger but to get fat buds from now on.

******************************************* 11.02. Day 16 ******************************************* 13.02. Day 18 ******************************************* 16.02. Day 21 *******************************************

glad to see her come down and hoping she will dry without mold, not the best looking buds just massive single kolas

El lec lo he bajado a 245w por la temperatura.

During week 9 the twelve AK-47 plants continue to thrive. All of them have a healthy green color and grow more and more flowers from top to bottom. The plants start to form HUGE colas and I am astounded by the speed of the new flower development. The trichome production is in full swing and the pants get stickier every day. I still feed them following the mills nutrient schedule and they seem to have all they could wish for. The SANlight Q5W-Gen.2 LED lamps are dimmed to 100% (=3 green lights on dimer ON) without the SUNRISE-FADE (=orange light on dimmer OFF) and are at a distance of 50 cm from the top of the plants. This ensures that the whole canopy gets the maximum of light. Very informing were the recommendations from SANlight on their u-tube channel, see here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVhLo4Yv8QqfbaNSY6ROeWQ The aroma of the plants is getting stronger now, they have a heavy and mildly sweet smell (reminiscent of sandalwood), which is typical for the AK-47 from Serious Seeds. I cant wait till its finished and I get to try my medicine...😄

No problems while drying. Really strong smell while drying you should use a filter-system for that.

It's week 9 of flower and she's been fed her last bit of nutrients. I'll start flushing with BushDoctor's SledgeHammer 2 tsp a gallon. Then just straight water until the chop :)

Amazing Colours! As you can see the colours on this plant at the end of its run are absolutely amazing. The buds didnt out as dense as I had hoped but I think thats just this pheno and we are busy hunting a denser pheno atm. what a great strain to grow though. no problems during the cycle of the plant and the colours make it so rewarding to grow! I would definitely recommend this strain to people who like fruity and colourful plants. Barneys never disappoints really;)
