Hello Diary, White Widow has completed its last week, the journey has come to an end. Two days after the photo shoot, I harvested White Widow along with her roommates. 73 days since I put the seeds in the ground. 65 days since the start of the vegetation. Really very fast, although it has somehow become the standard on my small farm. But I am still fascinated by how quickly the plant goes through its cycle when it has the most ideal conditions. I don't necessarily mean myself, I try to give the plants the best I can and know how. As you can see in the photos, the result is impressive, White Widow turned out to be a real beauty. This phenotype painted White Widow in purple. The flowers are hard and dense, the branches bend under their weight. One branch even broke when I was setting it up for the photo shoot. That purple color gives it a special look. Some of the leaves have taken on autumn colors, which is also one of the signs that it has matured. This week I continued to observe the samples under the microscope, waiting for the trichomes to turn milky. On the day of the photo shoot, which was day 63, most of the trichomes were milky, some even brown. The smell is very intense, the whole room smells like plants when I open the grow box. I barely wash my fingers after examining the plants. Watering was standard, every three days. This week I stopped adding nutrients, I just lowered the p.H. to 6.0 and water the plants with clean water. After the photo shoot, she was in the grow box for two more days to drink all the water from the soil so that the drying would be more efficient. Before cutting, I removed all the leaves from the plant to also make drying easier and have less work to trim the dried flowers. But also to prevent the formation of potential mold. After cutting, I left her upside down in the grow box to dry. Now I'm waiting for the flowers to dry well and to see how much White Widow has really rewarded me. See you when that happens. Here's what the last week looked like. 19/09/2024 - Day 57. Watering. I prepared 9 liters of water, lowered the pH to 6.0 and used that amount to water all three plants on the farm. 22/09/2024 - Day 60. Watering. I repeated the same procedure as three days earlier. 24/09/2024 - Day 62. I watered them all with 1.5 liters of water each plant so they would be fresh for the photos. 25/09/2024 - Day 63. End of the last, 9th week since Purple Lemonade began its journey. Photos. 27/09/2024 - Day 65. White Widow has been harvested. That's almost all from me for this diary, the final report that follows after drying and testing remains. Thank you all again for your support and comments.

Beginning of week 7 plants faced a severe heat and dryness wave reaching 26°C and 35%hr however irrigation time (and volume) were fast adjusted and the problem was solved. Plants didn't got affected by that as seen. One of 3 early skunks presenting yellowing on leaves and will be chopped soon. Other 2 might wait some more days.

All of these girls are looking amazing. The TangieMatic was defoliated for the first time on 18.

Let's be honest. These should have gone to flower months ago. Nevertheless, they look amazing, and they're going to flower this week. Plants have to move around so much that SCROG isn't really practical, and headspace is such an issue that these girls need to be tied down for a few weeks, hence the tomato cage/chicken wire solution. Stripped 'em up, flipping to 12/12 light schedule in a day or two.

Hey again my fellow growmies, Tomorrow being the 13th will be my last water change before i harvest on Sunday 17th. Then she would have been flushed for 14days and should be clean and nutrient free! The discoloration to her leaves show me that she is ready!!! Her smell is absolutely amazing I can't explain it. Apart from she smells like a candy store! Absolutely beautiful! Once harvested she will go into glass jars to be cured and then I can place a review and pics etc. Cannot wait!! Excited 😁 😄 💗 💖 😁 😄 Till the next time peace and love to you all 👍✌️🤜🤛🌱

This week was quite unspectacular except that my pH was drifting low and I had to counteract. Removed some lower leaves and branches that were only poorly developed.

My three Bubble OG plants are looking fantastic, especially that tallest one! It's reaching for the sky and makes me think the others might have a little sibling rivalry going on. I can't wait to see how huge it gets.

It's harvest time for Pineapple too. This little one has grown very quickly since the beginning, living up to her name and surpassing all the others born with her in height. She caused no problems, completely indifferent to everything going on around her. Beautiful to look at and wonderful to smell, completely covered in trichomes. It's like smelling a pineapple! So fresh, so tropical!

Another week passed and all plants looking much more tough, healthy and new leaves are not curling at all. So recovery after wind burn went well. Also, yellowing stopped on new leaves, so I fixed mag deficiency I guess. Plants started to produce nice tropical smell, and I know its a good sign. Also lots of trichomes started on all jacks and critical jack. Only the talles plant, Somango, is still not fast as others but I guess its just becouse of the pheno. Cheers guys!

This week I can already tell she’s starting to swell, I’m excited to see how much! I think this might be her last week or so until I start flushing, we’ll see about that. Humidity has been great and temperatures also are under control.

Semana de lavado y finalizamos este cultivo. Muy contento con esta cepa la cantidad de cogollo es mas que adecuada y la de tricomas creo que se ve a simple vista. Y el olor es bastante fuerte. En la siguiente entrada os mostrare el resultado en seco de esta maravilla

It is a very strong plant. It's just a monster. The branches are pretty big, it's still growing.... fuck... stop please :)) Still watering just water and some stimulants. Sugars are showing up and I think it's a very good result of the blooming time. Touching the flower with my hand, the smell is amazing, as my "perfumer" says - "I want a perfume like that".

Another good week for the ladies..slowly but surely starting to get my PH down to the ideal range i want it to be in..all I did was add an extra day between feedings which is working for me so far. Also I decided to do some supper cropping on purple haze this week to get her height more leveled with the rest of the canopy. She has responded well, and I'm happy with the results of a more even canopy. Female preflowers is all over the plants..no signs of hermies on any, which is definitely a good sign. Especially with all the training and early mishaps. Other than that, I'll keep yall updated in my next video..I intend to send the ladies into flowering within the next 2- 3 weeks..Happy growing😎

Easy to grow. Started out pretty rough due to my PH being way to low and honestly plants were underfed being in coco now seems the plants want food sooner then they did in soil. So around day 5 start slowly introducing Megacrop to them. Other then easy to grow fun as fuck smells so good. The yield im really happy with i was only expecting 3 zips tbh. The buds smell so good right out the herbsnow dryer and lightly trimmed and placed into jars for the curing process. I am beyind happy considering the timing and everything. Will be a lovely 420 treat. Thank you to everyone who watched me grow this one :).

🌱 Blütetag 38 | Tag 98 gesamt Klima – VPD Achterbahn Wieder eine unruhige Woche draußen. Mildes Regenwetter mit hoher Luftfeuchte → dann wieder kalt → dann wieder milder. Typisches Hin und Her. Die Pflanzen müssen ständig Transpiration und Nährstofffluss nachjustieren. Konstantere Bedingungen würden es ihnen leichter machen – aber sie arbeiten sich so durch. 🌿 Pflanzenstatus White Gushers 33 Diese Woche zeigt sie etwas mehr Sensibilität. An exponierten Trieben sind Klimaspuren sichtbar – kleine Nekrosen und leichte Transportanzeichen. Nichts Kritisches, aber erkennbar, dass sie die Schwankungen spürt. Trotzdem baut sie weiter auf. Blüten stapeln sich, die Harzproduktion nimmt zu und das fruchtige Aroma wird von Tag zu Tag intensiver. Triangle Sherbet Kush Deutlich die ruhigere im Zelt. Sie geht gelassener mit den Schwankungen um und wirkt insgesamt stabiler. Auch hier kleine Spuren, aber weniger ausgeprägt. Die Blütenstruktur wird kompakter, das Stacking läuft sauber, und aromatisch wird sie zunehmend runder. 🌸 Blütenentwicklung & Aroma Beide Strains legen gut zu. Mehr Dichte. Mehr Harz. Mehr Charakter. Beim Öffnen des Zeltes kommt inzwischen direkt ein wahrnehmbarer, fruchtiger Duft entgegen. Wir sind klar in der Mitte der Blüte angekommen. 💧 Nährstoffe Konstant gehalten: CalMag: 1,5 ml/L Bloom: 1 ml/L Einfach, stabil, ohne größere Änderungen. 🐞 IPM / Biologischer Pflanzenschutz Das biologische Team arbeitet weiter: Florfliegenlarven Raubmilben Gelbtafeln zur Kontrolle Ein leichter Rückgang der Trips ist erkennbar, aber sie bleiben hartnäckig. Kein akuter Druck – eher ein laufender Prozess. 🔎 Ausblick Insgesamt bin ich zufrieden mit dem Stand. Das Klima dürfte ruhiger sein, aber Blütenentwicklung und Aroma gehen klar in die richtige Richtung. In der kommenden Woche plane ich eine leichte, gezielte Entlaubung (etwa 2-3 Wochen nach dem ersten Durchgang), um Licht und Luft für die letzten Wochen optimal zu führen. Ich rechne mit etwa vier weiteren Wochen bis zur sauberen Ausreifung. Toll, dass hier viele mitlesen, Input geben und Erfahrungen teilen – genau das macht so einen Run spannend. Achterbahn-Woche. Blüten bauen trotzdem. Danke fürs Mitfahren. — Rocko 🌿🔥💚 🌱 Flower Day 38 | Day 98 Overall Climate – VPD Rollercoaster Another unstable week outside. Mild rain with high humidity → then cold → then mild again. Classic back-and-forth weather. The plants constantly have to readjust transpiration and internal nutrient flow. More stable conditions would definitely make things easier for them — but they’re pushing through. 🌿 Plant Status White Gushers 33 She shows a bit more sensitivity this week. On exposed tops, climate marks are visible — small necrotic spots and light transport signs. Nothing critical, but clearly showing she feels the swings. Still, she keeps building. Bud stacking continues, resin production is increasing, and the fruity aroma grows stronger day by day. Triangle Sherbet Kush Clearly the calmer one in the tent. She handles the fluctuations more gracefully and appears more stable overall. Minor signs here as well, but less pronounced. Bud structure is tightening up nicely, stacking remains solid, and the aroma is becoming rounder and richer. 🌸 Bud Development & Aroma Both strains are progressing well. More density. More resin. More character. Opening the tent now immediately releases a noticeable fruity scent. We’re clearly in mid-flower mode. 💧 Feeding Kept consistent: CalMag: 1.5 ml/L Bloom: 1 ml/L Simple, stable, no major adjustments. 🐞 IPM / Biological Control The biological crew is still at work: Lacewing larvae Predatory mites Sticky traps for monitoring A slight reduction in thrips is noticeable, but they remain persistent. No major pressure — just an ongoing balancing process. 🔎 Outlook Overall, I’m happy with where we stand. The climate could be smoother, but bud development and aroma are clearly moving in the right direction. Next week I’m planning a light, selective defoliation (about 2-3 weeks after the first round) to optimize airflow and light penetration for the final weeks. I’m expecting around four more weeks until proper maturation. Great to see so many people following along, sharing input and experience — that’s what makes a run like this even better. Rollercoaster week. Buds keep building. Thanks for riding along. — Rocko 🌿🔥💚
