Todo bien en mi primera experiencia en carpa chica, sin ventilación en invierno, idealmente mantendré un ciclo de 24 horas para evitar hongos en los días húmedos de lluvia.

Topped N1. Using only water, and gave a dose of compost tea i have brewed, follows the recipe: ———Basic tea with a twist #1——— 20l unclorinated water, using a filter, but vitamin c powder is an option or aerating for 12 to 48h. 1 cup worm castings 1 cup bokashi 1/3 cup molasses, unsulfured organic. 2 1/2 tbsp Recharge Brew aerating for 24h, using a Hydro air pump. EC was at 0.4 and PH a bit low but used full strength no ph adjustment. A basic tea would be only worm castings and molasses. For a nutrient tea is possible to add kelp extract, fish emulsion, bat guano and so on, best to check the EC specially if using guanos before using full strength... Watering schedule is more or less every other day 1 liter. Tea every third watering +-... Next week Biobizz will enter the schedule in a discrete dosage. For this strain i’m Running two plants, one is behind.

Day 42, start of flowering week 3: they are growing nicely, had to do a lot of defoliation on each plant, except the one in the 3L pot. Day 43, I started to discover that the roots are coming out aggressively from the bottom of the pot. I did not move the ones in the back, but I guess same thing. The one in the 3L pot doesn't have this problem. Day 45: getting really excited for these guys! I'm trying to keep the temp and humidity low, and I hope I can achieve some of the purple color :P any advice on that? day46: defoliaton

The end is in sight, the trichomes are getting milky. Gave them a good shot of Cannazym and Canna boost last watering to help the ripening process. Kind of a first flush to help enzyms digest the build up in the soil. Next 2 Waterings gonna be just RO water followed by a flush with Canna flush:)

Día 22. Las plantas van muy bien. Veo un buen tamaño de flores y buena cantidad por ahora. Espero que sigan en ese camino. Estimo que van a ser unas 9 semanas de floración en total. Así que entrando en la 4ta semana, estimo que voy a empezar a usar el overdrive desde la próxima semana. Seguramente voy a tener que hacer otra defoliación. Día 24. La floración viene muy bien. Las plantas van engordando parejo. Aproveché que algunas plantas están más bajas en altura y coincide en diagonal, así que puse la luz en diagonal para lograr una distancia pareja a la luz con todas las plantas. Voy a leer algunos diarios para ver cuando jan empezado a usar overdrive de advanced.

Aug 10: now done two weeks of force flowering in the garage. This was supposed to be an auto, but like a lot of other growers here, I found this didn’t autoflower. That’s okay and I forced flowering by putting her in the dark garage along with the other photoperiod plants. Hopefully these are just mis-packaged Overdose Fast seeds. Aug 13: overdose is making good progress with flower development finally kicking in after a couple weeks of forcing. Aug 14: added 3 tablespoons of a 50:50 mix of Power Bloom and malted barley as a top dressing and watered in.

Que lo que familia, ya de vuelta, nuestras northern light xL todavía siguen formándose nuestras flores, de las3 variedades son las flores menos compactas, NO peores, pintaza tienen de todas formas 🙈, son las mas lentas en florecer, predominancia indica, 60/65 días. Aquí tenemos la cabeza mas grande de todos los ejemplares. Son plantas que también sacan ramas laterales no muy grandes pero son curiosas. Seguiremos dando productos por lo menos una semana más y los riegos incluyen PK 0-49-32 como aporte suplementario.

🍋🍒 Lemon Cherry Gelato — Week 6 From Seed (Week 2 Flower · 12/12 From Seed) Hello everyone 👋 Quick recap and a warm welcome to anyone joining the diary now, here’s where we are and how we got here. 🌱 From Seed to Now, Quick Context These Lemon Cherry Gelato girls have been grown 12/12 from seed, and we are now entering what we consider Week 2 of flower / transition. Pre-flowers are clearly visible, stacking has begun, and the stretch is now turning into early bulk. They are in that beautiful in-between phase where they still look slightly vegetative, but their behavior is unmistakably flowering. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment Update • Day temperature: ~28°C (successfully raised) • Humidity: ~65% It’s still a bit cold outside, but as plant mass increases, lighting intensity goes up, and under-canopy lighting is added, the tent itself has become a stronger heat source. This allowed us to stabilize conditions without forcing anything, exactly how we like it. • PPFD: ~600–850 (depending on plant size and position) • CO₂: ~900 ppm • Airflow: unchanged • vortex extraction • cross-winds with multiple fans • constant, gentle movement across the canopy ⸻ 💧 Feeding & Nutrition Strategy This week marks an important nutritional transition. • EC: 2.4 • pH: 6.5 From this point forward, all feedings will be pH 6.0 and above. The reason is simple: as flowering progresses, plants shift their nutrient uptake priorities, and slightly higher pH improves availability of key elements needed for bloom development. Nutrient Change • Introduced: Terra Bloom — 5 ml / L • Removed: Terra Grow This change is happening now, not earlier, because the plants have clearly entered the flowering transition. There’s no rush, no shock, just following the plant’s signals. The current recipe (our “Plagron” approach) continues to perform exceptionally well, and plant response has been outstanding so far. ⸻ 🌿 Training & Plant Handling We are continuing with a very minimal-stress approach: • No topping • No aggressive defoliation • Only leaf bending and leaf tucking This method keeps the structure open, exposes bud sites naturally, and avoids recovery downtime. Simple, effective, and extremely practical, sometimes simplicity isn’t laziness, it’s efficiency. The results speak for themselves: • strong branching • compact “ball” formations • clean stacking • healthy color fade beginning naturally ⸻ 📸 Visual Progress This update includes a large set of photos (studio + tent shots) to clearly show: • the transition phase • stretch turning into bulk • visible growth differences over just one week Every time the tent doors open, growth is noticeable, and comparing earlier photos to the latest ones makes that even clearer. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Over the coming weeks: • stretch will gradually slow • bulk and stacking will take over • plant handling will be reduced even further • stability becomes the priority What not to expect: • heavy pruning • forced corrections • unnecessary interventions At this stage, the goal is to let the plants do what they already know how to do. ⸻ 🙏 Thanks Big thank you to: • everyone following along • newcomers and long-time readers • supporters, critics, observers, all welcome • the Grow Diaries Team and platform • and all sponsors backing the journey This is a key week in the run, and we’re excited to document it properly and share the learning with the community.

With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

Lollipopped some sucker strains. Not so shure about the grow. Some leaves are burning, overall light green color showing up at the bigger leaves. Buds are smaller compared to the mother of this clone. Watering is still tricky, it takes more then 4L untill i see some drain-water coming out. I think i need to watering less and less frequently. Smell is nice and lots of trichomes showing up. Stay tuned, 4 weeks to go!

Week 13 in the books! was a full flush week, as I will be harvesting mid wk 14. Ive been watching tricomes, taking snipits of sugar leaves, and checking them over. These are 2nd & 3rd gen grows, from prev collected random strains.. In other words, Its always a Surprise as to what strain comes out. Ive got 3 different strains here.. a Sativa looking, a very White strain, and 2 plants of a colorful purplish strain.

Aquí ya en mi 8va semana después de cambiarlas a unas macetas más grandes de un aproximado de 15 litros. Bueno, se preguntarán dónde está la tercera si eran tres y ahí se ven dos. Resulta que se murió, aconsejo de mantener lejos a tus gatos. Sí, mi gato macho orinó en su sustrato (aconsejo siempre mantener limpio su arenero para que no busque otros lugares donde orina) y pese de hacerle su lavado de raíces y cambio de sustrato, no sobrevivió. Aquí fue la única vez hasta ahora que pasó algo así. Hasta ahora sigo renegando con el gato, pero bueno no es culpa de ellos, sino de uno mismo. Hay que ser más precavidos. Buenos humos!

Making first attempt at a amnesia hase auto from fast buds. Made a short video explaining the method I been using for germination and first week. Had great success with this method. Just everything after is the journey. Thanks again fast buds and supporters. Day 6, not sure why it kept data from last week. But did not want to disturb it.
