Hello Diary, Cherry Pie has completed its second week of vegetation. It has grown 10 cm this week which is great and has started to form places where the flowers will appear. Sometimes it's surprising how quickly plants develop and grow if they have good conditions. Since it's the middle of summer, the temperatures are still high, but for now I don't see that it doesn't suit them. Sometimes it is over 31 degrees in the grow box. I make sure that the soil does not dry out, so I increased the amount of water when watering. I continue to add Bio Grow Fertilisier and CalMg with each watering. pH I drop to 6.0 with Plagron's Lemon Kick. At the end of the week, more precisely after taking photos for day 14., I increased the power of the led lights to 60%. Here is a quick overview of the week: 04/08/2024 - Day 11. Watering. I prepared 6 liters of water, added the previously mentioned nutrients and with that amount I evenly watered all three plants on the farm. 07/08/2024 - Day 14. After taking the photos, I watered all three plants on the farm in the same way as three days earlier. Cherry Pie - Day 14. - 17 cm That's all from me for this week, see you soon.

🌱 Week 3 – Transplant Time, Studio Vibes & Root Dreams Grower’s Journal – BlueBerry by Zamnesia Seeds | Entry 004 This week marks a major milestone in our BlueBerry journey, transplant time. Our three beautiful girls have been thriving, and after careful observation, we’ve selected Pheno #1 and Pheno #2 to move forward into their new homes and toward the flowering stage. ⸻ Transplanting into Fabric Pots – Why & How We’ve moved the selected girls into 11L Amnesia fabric pots, and here’s why fabric pots are a grower’s best friend: • Air Pruning: Fabric pots naturally prune roots when they hit the edges, encouraging a dense, fibrous root ball with no circling. • Oxygenation: They allow more airflow to the root zone, supporting microbial activity and preventing anaerobic pockets. • Drainage: Overwatering is much harder—excess water simply flows through. • Temperature Regulation: Fabric helps prevent root overheating, especially important under powerful grow lights. 🧡 These pots create an environment where roots can breathe, explore, and flourish. And that’s the heart of healthy, vigorous growth. ⸻ 🌿 Roots & Selection – What We Saw Before transplanting, we gently lifted the plants to check their roots, and they were absolutely gorgeous. White, fuzzy, and lively, signaling that they were ready to stretch into something bigger. While all three seedlings looked fantastic, BlueBerry #1 and BlueBerry #2 stood out with stronger symmetry, tighter nodes, and a more expressive posture. BlueBerry #3 will stay behind—for now—a backup, just in case. 💫 ⸻ Soil Mix & Nutrient Support We prepped the new pots with a focused super soil mix blended with Aptus Holland amendments: Transplant Mix Includes: • 🌱 Super soil base (organic, airy, compost-rich) • Aptus Mycor-Mix – inoculates roots with powerful mycorrhizal fungi • 🌿 Aptus Micro-Mix – delivers beneficial bacteria to balance the root zone • ⚖️ Aptus Substrate Buffer Powder – stabilizes pH & improves nutrient exchange First Watering Feed Mix (per liter): • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml Strengthens cell walls, improves nutrient flow, and boosts stress resistance (especially post-transplant). • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml Helps develop strong structure and leaf formation. • 💧 Aptus All-in-One Liquid – 1 ml Balanced macro and micronutrients for baseline support. • 🌾 Aptus Start Booster – 2 ml Stimulates root expansion and early vegetative energy. Water Stats: • pH: 5.83 • EC: 1.01 • Water Temp: 18.5°C ⸻ 🌬️ Environment & Gear Overview Our setup is getting tighter every day: • Lighting: Black Series 600 LED by Future of Grow, full-spectrum, clean white light, perfect for compact, healthy growth. • Ventilation: • 6” Spider Farmer inline fan + (carbon filtered) – controlled by Spider Farmer GGS Controller • 6” TrolMaster AeroFan + (carbon filtered) – linked to the TrolMaster Ecosystem • Why carbon filters? Even at this stage, clean air = clean grow. Carbon filters reduce smells, but more importantly, they help purify the incoming and outgoing air. • Environmental Conditions: • Temp: ~27°C • Humidity: ~57.4% • CO₂: ~632 ppm • Airflow: Gentle, consistent, and perfectly balanced ⚙️ We’re gradually dialing in the TrolMaster system, automating parts of the grow environment, like extraction, CO₂ management, and eventually irrigation. For now, everything is still done by hand-watering, feeding, and loving every single leaf. ⸻ 📸 Studio Time – A Celebration of Beauty This week, the girls got a special treat: a trip to the studio. Their energy, their posture, their color, it all deserved to be captured. Their presence under the soft lights was stunning. These won’t be the last photos we take, we’ll be back again before they outgrow their portability. But for now, these are moments to remember. 💙📷 ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect After Transplant In the next few days: • Some slower above-ground growth is normal, roots are stretching first. • Expect to see a new flush of leaves and stronger stems midweek. • No training yet, just letting them adapt and settle. 🙅‍♂️ What NOT to Expect • No explosive height jumps yet • No flowering signs • No topping until they’re fully recovered This week is about integration, expansion, and ease. ⸻ 🎥 Series Continues – Follow the Rhythm As always, this is part of our ongoing Grow Series, an open diary of everything we do and why.

I am not on facebook instagram twitter etc All accounts except this one are fake. Flowering day 1 since time change to 12/12 h. Hi guys :-) . The time has finally come 👍 You have been switched to 12/12 hrs and are ready to flower. Of course, cuttings were cut beforehand to keep the genetics. For 4 days now she has also been getting Fast Buds from GreenBuzzLiquids. They were also sprayed again with GBL Fast Plant spray. She is very healthy and I am excited to see how she gets going again in bloom :-). This week it was poured twice with 1.2 l each time (for nutrients, see nutrient table above). Then I filled canisters with fresh osmosis water for the next few weeks 👍. The tent was cleaned and every plant was checked for health. At the moment I am tinkering with the ventilation because there are currently 4 fans with 4 activated carbon filters running, which I want to make more efficient by putting a hose through 2 tents. These are the things about which you desperately at the beginning but learned from them in the end. I wish you all a nice week.

DAY 28 : Hi all , hope your past week has been a positive one with lots of love and affection. I am at the point now where flowering should be starting to show throughout the plants usually. Their are many tiny white pistil hairs showing their female genetics across the bracts of them all now so it looks like flowering has begun !!!! The FC3000 has really given them plenty of light on their perfect spectrum to develop those nice fat fan leaves and now will no doubt take them through a great flowering period. It doesnt produce much heat at all and you can touch it for a while and still not feel too much heat. Ideal for stealthy gardens.. The Tip Spreading has been continued up to this point and it is clear to see how it works on keeping the heights down. By using additional l.s.t that wont slow growth down like the leaf tucking and threading the growing tips above the larger fan leaves that are still being used like solar factories producing copious amounts of food for the developing growth tips. The stems on the majority are nice and thick from the close stacking of the nodes and their is very little popcorn to remove from lower down. I will be keeping them all as open as I can now that we are going into the stretch periods pre flower. The potential is there now to create very chunky bud stacks but I think the Strawberry Pie have ideas of bursting out more . ! They are certainly all a lot more happy than the bonsai Mexican that has emerged in #1. Still very short and half the size ( or less!) than her sister in the next bed. She looks happy and healthy now but her initial shock at the soils make up had a negative impact very early on. Overall it has been a good week for their tip spreading l.s.t and setting them up for flowering and I hope that our next update will be the bud porn early stages. Be well and prosperous growmies

First week of flowering on a 12/12 cycle with explosive growth. Defoliated lower 7-14 inches of plants and nipped future larf buds. Top dressed with 2tsp of kelp meal this week. Next week will be worm castings (top dressed) and the following week with bloom nutrients. Gave it a good soaking with calmagged water and Mammoth microbials. California Light work's Solar Extreme 250 around 10" above the canopy. All is well! 💚

Learned a lot from this grow and am very happy with the results. Pulled 2.8 Oz and 1.1 Oz of trim/popcorn buds in a one gallon pot. Definitely wont be doing that again, but had a lot of fun throughout the entire process. Going to be starting another grow soon! Very excited for that.

Sorry for the late update. A lot has been going on lately. This girl needs a defoliation once they get home from work which will be probably tomorrow evening so I won't get to that until the following day at the earliest... i hope everyone is doing well, thank you so much to Kannabia Seeds

26.12.24: I have noticed light stress on my plants. I had moved the lights further away and increased the light intensity to 70%. Unfortunately that created some issues. Namely severe palour of the leaves. To try and rectify the situation, I've dimmed the lights to about 30%, staying at the same distance, about 30 inches away. I measured the par levels, after I did this. They should a reading of anywhere between 40 and 150, at the canopy of the plants. They are all different sizes. This seems to have improved the colouring on all plants. After this evenings watering, I will monitor recovery and increase lighting intensity again slowly. I am also using the light cycle of 21/3, so the plants have many hours more light to absorb, than for example 12/12 or 18/6. 29.12.24: So I finally gave LST a shot, it's probably a bit too late, however I really want to get the most of the triploid pheno, and I went a little crazy and LST'd all plants except 2, as they're too small. I did that late last night, this afternoon I was amazed to see the plants turn their leaves back to the light source. I'm glad I overcame my fear of trying it. I'm very excited to see them adapt and progress! 😁 there are videos above with before and after of my LST process. I am pleased with the progress, considering all of my mistakes! Thanks for checking out my diary 🍃 ✌️

Start of week 4. This girl stretched an inch during week 3 and her bud sites continued to pack on size and take shape. She is very sticky to the touch and densely packed. I did some defoliation, so more light gets to the inner and lower nodes and buds.

Hey now, hope everyone is having a great weekend! The Donuts is flushed and ready to chop, the flowers are very dense and smell amazing. I will start flushing the Cherry Garcia tomorrow, and the Apple Fritters and Durban Thai X C99 need another 2 weeks or so. Hopefully the flowers continue putting on weight. Thanks for stopping by, stay safe, and blaze on!

Diary Legend: 💧- Watered 🌱- Seedling 🥦- Vegging 🌷- Flowering 🌲- Cut Down 🍃- Defoliation ✂️- Topping or FIM'ING 🚂- Training (LST) 💩- Fertilized 🆕🏠 - New Home (transplant) Wk6 11/21/21: Day 36. Plant is looking mighty fine, definitely one great strain to grow. Someday I'd like to see her natural shape, as I could see it being one nice bushy baby. I still need to perform some defoliation and cutting of branches, but it's alright for now. I will defoliate in a day or two, and then follow up with the cuttings a little while after. I still haven't decided if I'm going to clone the cuttings or not. I am lazy enough that I don't want to, but I'm frugal enough to not want to waste good buds. I probably will clone them. If I have room to stuff them in the flower tent, I will. If not, I'll have to grow them out a bit, and then flower them when I can. 11/22/21: Day 37. ✂️🍃 Defoliated and cut some branches, the 6 that were big enough were dipped in rooting gel, and placed in rooting cubes. Now resting inside the humidity dome. Once rooted and transplanted, allow a bit of time to veg, and then move over into the flower tent. If there is no room, see if Crit wants some, and Josh as well. Plant definitely needs watering, which I will administer later on this evening. 11/23/21: Day 38. 💧Love the way this plant explodes with growth, this bugger doesn't seem to want to stop. Hoping at least one of those clones roots, so I can see what an untouched branched will flower into. If I ever get these seeds again, I will definitely grow one out that is untouched, I'm curious to see it's natural shape. At only 6 weeks of life, this guy is already bigger than my previous photoperiods at 8 weeks old. Those yielded around 3 ounces each, so I'm expecting a lot more from this one. I will be defoliating most of the leaves on colas, hopefully forcing them to bulk up the buds. It's a technique I've been reading about, and would like to give it a shot. Gave a fair dose of water, but I don't think the entire media was saturated. That is something I find difficult with Gaia Green. Watering to a little runoff is easy, and a simple way to tell if it's completely saturated or not. Since I don't want runoff, I feel as if I'm using a lot less water than I should be. I plan on buying some Coco coir soon, and that I know I will be needing to water a lot more often, which is fine with me. I may even eventually switch over to an automated watering system. Only gravity fed, with drip emitters, that way it's on autopilot for 3 weeks at a time, minus the tweaking of leaves and branches. That would be ideal, eventually, especially with autos, then I can literally do sweet f**k all with the plants. Even if I don't get an automated watering system setup, I still want to switch over to a Coco coir and sunshine mix combo. I may even use some Coco outside with my outdoor plants, but not likely, as the sand is already very quick drying. 11/25/21: Day 40. The only issue I have with this plant, is that I don't get to grow it as big as I'd like to. It still feels like it's going to be one heavy producer though, the way it grows like crazy. We will see how it reacts to the flip into flower 9 or 10 days from now. I will continue to train some branches to keep it spread out. I really wish I was able to go back and redo this one, have it handled better from the start, and grow it out by itself. I will be defoliating in the next few days, and also removing any small shoots that cannot be trained back inwards. 11/27/21: Day 42. 💧Plant is still looking amazing. It is definitely time for another haircut, but I will leave that for tomorrow morning, so it has less time to regrow a bunch of leaves before the flip. One week left, I can't wait. I'm curious to see how much this stretches during flower. I will be tying more branches down as needed, and will now start training the new shoots inwards, to fill out any gaps.

Buenas noches familia, finalizamos el primer mes de esta farm cheese, esta variedad está colocada básicamente por gusto de mi paladar, me encanta el sabor de la cheese y a sido un capricho. Volviendo a esta genética, vemos cómo la cheese a tirado unas preflores majas y unos brazos curiosos, es de las variedades que más huele de lo que e cultivado así que ojito gente que recuerdos tengo bastantes en cuanto a el tema olor-cheese. Ph controlado en 6.0 humedad por debajo de 50% temperatura siempre por debajo de los 27 grados. Poco más os dejo unas fotos y vídeos para que podáis comprobar que la farm cheese esta más que viva 💨💨💨 buenos humos.
