Hello Diary, Cherry Pie has finished its vegetative cycle and is entering the flowering phase. This week it grew an impressive 20 cm, lengthened and got a lot of new leaves and formed a nice shape. The leaves are a nice green color and look healthy. It is really developing very nicely which makes me super happy. I can't believe how in just 21. days the plant reaches this stage of development. That indoor is incredible, I am still impressed to this day. The summer heat is still present which affects the temperature in the grow box, this week the average was 29 degrees although sometimes the temperature rises to over 31 degrees. But I don't notice that it is harming them, I make sure to water them regularly, so that the soil does not remain too dry although that sometimes happens. Every week, as the plants grow, I increase 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 21., I increased the power of the led lights to 80%. Here is a quick overview of the week: 10/08/2024 - Day 17. Watering. I prepared 8 liters of water, added Bio Grow Fertiliser and CalMg and with that amount I evenly watered all three plants on the farm. 13/08/2024 - Day 20. Watering. I repeated the same procedure as the three days before. 14/08/2024 - Day 21. Photographing and measuring the height of the plants. Official end of the vegetation phase. Cherry Pie - Day 21. - 37 cm That's all from me for this week, thanks to everyone for the comments and see you soon.

Start of week 9, lots of leave are dying, but there was bud growth during the previous week. This will be the last feeding before flushing next Sunday. Some of thehe branches are very heavy, they twist and bend if not supported, hopefully that is a sign of bud weight and not weak stems.

La planta se está desarrollando bien y parece que la deformación inicial de las hojas va remitiendo, esperaré hasta el próximo par de hojas y realizaré poda apical y LST antes de colocar la malla scrog.

Temps have go a tad higher as the ambient temp outside has increased a little. Should start to see perfect temps again in the next week as temps outside begin to drop beow freezing. According to my previous grow pictures i should start to double and triple the colas in size over the next 2 weeks. Stay tuned!

good with training and strong genetically. good for extracts. medicinal potentials include fatigue, tension, and stomach pain. my grow style seems to minimize ‘cheesy’ terpenes in favor of amazing tropical sweetness. cheers

There isn't much more to say about this fantastic strain. Hardy, easy to clone, quick to flower and absolutely delicious in every respect. It resists well to high temperatures, "accidental" over fertilization, and recovers soon after a period of drought. Easy and fast.

As you can see from the third picture on day 29 she is looking a little ugly and unkept. I'm not sure if this is a normal thing or something I need to take action on. Advice would be great. So day 30 rolling around. Decided I had to try LST again. She felt more receptive to being bent over today as well. I mainly had to attempt it for space reasons. With the current covid panic all the markets where I buy my buckets from are closed and I can't procure a new one to increase my height for probably a couple of weeks at this rate so LST was my only option. She seems to have taken well to it and I will upload a finished picture of her shortly. Day 32, watered and fed her. 500ml of water plus .3ml each of fox farm trio. Hoping to see her perk up a bit. Concerned about the large brown spot on one of her leaves which made me think she was having a deficiency? Probably a bit early to worry about buds fattening up also but I am worried they are looking a bit airy at the moment on the non main cola sites. I'm not sure if my LST was effective at tricking her into trying to have more than one top cola? Day 33. No noticeable gains today, at least to my eyes. I can spot a little nute burn perhaps but hopefully nothing too serious. Looks like a cola that isn't the original top is starting to fill out just as much, if not more, than the original top though. Hoping they all catch up at a similar pace to each other and reduce the pop corn nug potential! Day 35. She has shown a few more bud sites since last post. I am worried that she is going to produce a fair bit of larf/popcorn bud and wanted to know how to get rid of that? I am not confident to remove any growth without knowing for sure it has a beneficial impact on the overall health of the plant and the final results. Any advise is appreciated. She also seemed a bit thirsty to me. The leaves were feeling a bit thin and dry so I gave her 1L of water with .7ml each of fox farm trio. Hopefully she responds well. I will check her in an hour or so to see if the leaves are starting to point back up - fingers crossed.

Welcome to week 11 of my grow diary. The plant has clearly enjoyed the weather this week. The branches have become so strong that half of the metal hooks have been pulled out of the soil. As the plant is now so overgrown, I think I will have to defoliate again in the next few weeks to minimise the risk of mould in the coming weeks of flowering. Unfortunately there is no picture from Friday this week as I wasn't at home and only came back late on Saturday evening. See you next week ✌️

Getting my supports into place and then will flip this coming week. Mites seem under control, still using soap spray and systemic spinosad in watering. The two middle most plants are Ice Bomb. I have not been feeling well so I have not pulled them all out for photos this week.

4/15/25 This plant is blowing my freaking mind. Long stacked colas. Even the lower buds are plumping up like golf balls. This is an exceptional plant so far. Shes starting to show the classic "sherbert" purple that ive noticed shows up with anything that has sunset sherbert in the lineage. Some of the leaves are starting to fade slightly and the purple is coming in. The rs11 that this seed came from, produced the most from a single plant out of all plants ive grown and trained and kept that small. She yielded 3.5 ounces or a 1/4lb of top nugs from a plant that was only about 18 inches tall and vegged for 6 weeks before flip. Once i start to clear out all of the fan leaves later on in flower, its just going to be buds running the length of the stems 4/18/25 I really believe this may be a keeper. She is absolutely stunning. Just everything is perfect. She has super long stacking of buds up and down the stems. Im actually super stoked to see how she finishes up. One of the craziest parts is that shes in a plastic 2 or 3 gallon pot and this plant is going to yield insane.

Couldn't help but take lots of photos this week.. Nuggets are really starting to fill out and the white hairs are beginning to brown. Lots of new trichomes without heads and a few have turned milky. Thought this would be done by now and I really need the space for my other girl thats currently stretching due to lack of light. Considering that and also not wanting to harvest prematurely, I'm trying to decide when to start the 7-14 day flushing period, any advice would be HUGELY appreciated. Thanks for stopping by 😎

The plants are doing great overall! 💪🌿 RS11 is filling up beautifully — the structure looks amazing and the sweet smell is starting to show! 🍬✨ Amnesi-K Lemon has such juicy-looking buds 🍋💦 — that’s honestly the best way I can describe them right now. The surprise of the run is definitely Apple and Bananas 🍎🍌 — the plants are packing on heavy trichomes, even on the sugar leaves. This one’s going to be an interesting strain for sure! ❄️🔥 Monkey Grease is growing steady and strong — zero issues so far 🙌🌱. Cherry Dreams… well, that’s where I made a big mistake 😅. When I mixed the soil, my ppm meter turned out to be faulty — so they went into a very hot mix. I’m currently flushing to remove excess salts so the roots can breathe and work properly again 💧🌿. Lost some time there, and they’re definitely behind compared to the others. But hey, it’s all part of the learning process. This will be an interesting one to see how it finishes! 🧠✨.

. FIRST DAYS ------------- New week, new diet The girls are getting 3+3ml of Grow A+B, and still 2ml of Voodoo. Instead of 3 waterings of 1L, we are now doing 3 x 3L. One of the girls has some minor burns, so I am keeping a close eye on that. An excess of nutrients seems unlikely to me, but I will see in a few days after this increase. MIDWEEK ----------- It's probably not just the Voodoo, but my girls have grown a lot this week. I think they like this little juice 😉The root system still has some work to fill the 15L of coco, but things are going well. As for the small burns on the leaves, I think it's due to heat and/or wind stress: the temperature frequently rose to +35°C and the leaves were shaken by my fans, which were directed straight at them. I increased the speed of my filter and placed the fans facing the sides of the tent while increasing the air flow; we're back to an average of 30°C. To be continued. But most importantly, the girls have developed 4-5 nodes... so it's training time! 👍 I know what many people think about topping autos, but I disagree; it clearly has the advantage of giving the plant an airy structure that is easy to control and produces denser buds when combined with mainlining and light lollipopping. My goal: a 6-branch structure, which may eventually develop a few side branches. To achieve this, two toppings a week apart and some serious LST are needed. I'll try to film the whole process, training sess by training sess, and post the results here in a few weeks. I'll also increase the nutrients to their final dose next week (4+4ml grow) and switch from Voodoo to B-52 (2ml). more vids ? 👉 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCtAGX0oCBY92aj3VJCG5q-Q

First week of flower is in the books. All 3 plants stretched about 6" and grew tons of new branched. Really starting to thicken out. Been battling a more problem with sns217 sprayed at beginning of night cycle. 1 confirmed female while it's still to early for the other 2 although they look female. Only problem now is I'm starting to run out of height so hopefully they don't have too much more stretch in them. From here on I will be doing individual weekly updates on each plant they will be labeled AH1, AH2, and AH3 AH1 30" topped once biggest and strongest plant Female AH2 26" Kind of a boring one 1 main stem not much other growth AH3 22" The mutant! Probably On of the craziest plants I've grown. Has 3 main colas and a bunch of strange leaves with no training. Bushiest of the group Had a 4th AH that was only about 18" and struggling confirmed male and chopped 10 days into flower

Just look at it. All deformed and shit. Already has a fat stem on it.. maybe the nutes should be toned down? God knows. 4/2. It's like it's growing sooooo many leaves... plain water at end of week. Contemplating defoliating it...
