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.

Day 47 ( 10 in flowering): Happy days here in the Farm. These ladies have been stacking up their bud sites ready for the big build it seems. Limbs are nice and chunky to support the upcoming baseball bats , and their general health and colour is looking good. I have the rh at 70% and will lower that soon to encourage some oil. The Los girl is flying with very little input needed. She will get a top dress of charge, life cycle and watered in with biosys tea on her next feed. The Coco Mc girls are vibrant and a beautiful green colour so should be powerhouses for the bud stacking. I do want to defoliate a bit but will wait a little longer while they still sort their stretching out. All the budsites are able to get light so their bushiness isnt an issue yet.! .I think they will go to another 5 weeks before harvest though which gives them ample time to pack in those buds. Until next week , peace and love gd fam

Noch immer habe ich und die Pflanzen den Schock über den ungewollten high Stress nicht über Wunden 😪 Leider war die Wachstum Phase zu diese Zeitpunkt fast vorüber. Zum Großteil hat es ausgerechnet die stärkste Pflanze erwischt. Diese ist nun die kleinste und schmächtigste geworden 😭 Meine Lampe bekomme ich nicht mehr höher, dieses Mal habe ich sie mit Hilfestellung ein letztes Mal höher gestellt. Ich war kurz davor diese Grow abzubrechen, doch dann packte mich wieder der Ehrgeiz. Da dieser Grow auch schon sehr Zeit und Energie aufwändig war. Meine größte Befürchtung ist jedoch ein unbemerktes zwittern und nachher alles voll mit Samen ist 😱 Am 75 Tag musste ich den unteren Bereich entlauben, dieser bestand nur aus Fusselärmchen und die ersten Blätter waren auch schon sehr hell.

Hey guys and girls this run is sponsored by some brand names , VIPARSPECTRA (LED) ZAMNESIA, GHE , VITALINK and LUMI BLACK (HPS) VIPARSPECTRA sent me out two budget lights which are on there Pro seriers , these lights to start off with put out mass amount of light for consumption of power draw only being 200watts each of the two lights . They are full spectrum Quantum boards emitting 2k , 5k , IR and deep red I'm a great fan of this light already and I have only run it to get the room climate stable before running anything after my last run. Was running at 20oc without any hps which is pretty good I don't know over winter will they still hold there temps when it's lights off so investment into another heater wouldn't go a miss . Total LED power draw 400watts The soil is canna terra Pro+ soil perlite and coco coir , this soil is very light and will provide massive amount of drainage and will provide plenty of oxygen and allow soil to dry daily allow me to tailor the GHE flora range slighly more to achieve beautiful fall colours towards harvest . This is my frist time using this soil and it seems like really good for autos alot better than there regular soil. There is also some added nutes to start the plants there frist couple of weeks . I'm using GHE BIO ROOTS from seed which I will place in a cup of water mixed with bio root , I'll transfer the popped seed directly into substrate in a jiffy pot until harvest this way we don't stunn the plant will transplant is taken place . Autos are very aggressive in nature so where gonna make that trait come to light.

🍋🍒 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.

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.

This drought is wild, 300mm rain deficit around the island. Hot, dry, no clouds or rain in sight for the next month. While this is awful for everything else, this gal is living life to the fullest. Irrigation up to 3hr of drip every 5 days and that is it for this week. Still amazed by the water retention with this Hugel. Whats everyones thoughts on defoliation outdoors? I've kept it fairly light this year, loving the shape, and while canopy looks bushy from front, it's quite clean inside. My topping from 2 weeks ago is barely noticeable, this stretch coming into flowering will easily get her past 9 feet. The combined fimming and topping has really helped this shape. Rain at the end of the season is always a problem, smaller buds is more desirable to me. Nearly always use my herb to make FECO for Gummies, so small is better. I've ran a major support pole through the middle, and I end up using string to internally support all the branches to the center post. Gives me much better control over shape and support. I don't have a ton of room for a trellis so this is easier.

Early flower is going well for the freebies. My tents are all mixed up so instead of by tent I may focus on diaries per strain in the future.

Purple Punch am 26.12.2024 Tag 49 / 14.02.2025 Meine Purple Punch steht schon in der 7 Woche, ein großer Erfolg für mich. Habe mit Bio Bloom und Bio Grow in der letzte Woche sie gedüngt, das Ergebnis kann sich sehen lassen. Heute, wird Acti Vera, Alg A Mic und Bio Heaven in das Gießwasser hinzu gegeben. Feedback: Ich bin überaus voll zufrieden wie meine Pflanze sich entwickelt hat, ich denke die gute Erde und der Dünger von Biobizz hat ein großen Teil beigetragen. Ich werde mal schauen wie die Pflanze in der 8 Woche aussieht. Ich nehme gerne Ratschläge von der Community an.

There is little to say yet. I recommend everyone to try this technique at least once. Maximize your harvest and increase your personal experience. If you want more serious proof of how mainlining works, take a look at the diaries of @Canamatoes, my teacher and mentor. More updates later, stay high🤘😁🦄

Week start: ScarJo has taken really well to the mainline and will need to be topped again later this week. Berry however is still behind. I'm sure she'll bounce back soon, but I've learned my lesson on too much stress too soon. Day 4: All of the girls got some LST done, with ScarJo getting defoliated and topped once more to finish the MainLine. now we'll be topping her every few nodes until flower. Baskin bounced back well from super crop, though is still recovering. Merry Berry is almost ready to be topped again in a day or two. Supercropped her tops like I did for ScarJo so we should be seeing some more bud sites the grow goes. Miguel had two side branches at 3 nodes and I topped them. LST was done to spread the branches out more. I'll do more have defoliation on Miguel once they've bushed up again. Goldilocks had their top leaves defoliated. Janet because she is so bushy actually had no training outside if 2 leaves being snipped. I'll do more defoliation and lollipopping on on Janet and Baskin (the two autos) once they start preflowers. I also switched to using the Green Gro nutrients as a top dress. Topdressing is going to be done on Saturday (day 3) or Sunday (day 4).
