I put the plants into an NFT system couple weeks ago. I could have waited a bit longer for the plants to develop a stronger root system before placing the rockwool cubes into NFT but I was being impatient because of the slow start and wanted to get the plants under proper light. Now two weeks later they are growing well with good root development. I switched the lights to flowering cycle about a week ago so they should start stretching soon. No preflowers yet.

I've been lollipopping the plant. Things are looking and smelling good. I'm trying to maximize the vertical space of my grow room and I think I'm almost at the right height. I've been keeping the light going at 75% (of 1000w) instead of 50%, which apparently I can get away with in the winter.

The Bubble OG plants are looking really good. They're all pretty big and have a similar structure. It'll be fun to see how they develop their own personalities as they keep growing. Well, another year has come and gone. Yesterday was New Year's Eve, and I want to wish all of you a happy and healthy 2025. May this year bring you all the things you've been wishing for. Let's make this the best year yet!

As the plant enters the fifth week of flowering, the first trichomes have begun to form. The buds have started to thicken considerably during this week. They are becoming denser and more robust, which indicates that the plant is channeling its energy into producing larger, more resinous flowers. Throughout the growth process, the cannabis plant has shown no signs of health issues. It has remained vigorous and resilient, with no observable deficiencies or diseases. To ensure optimal light penetration and airflow, the plant was lightly defoliated this week. The cannabis plant is progressing well in its fifth week of flowering. The formation of trichomes, the thickening of buds, and the plant's overall health are all promising indicators of a successful flowering phase.

It's been a very simple grow cycle for this Mimosa Cake auto. I started with a super soil and eventually started using bottled nutrients to get me to the finish line. It's been almost 100 days since germination and the finish product is a really stout & bushy plant with a dense flower composition. I will dry for 8-10 days at 65-70 degrees F and 55- 60 % relative humidity. After that she gets put in mason jars indefinitely. Advise for growing this strain: - Utilize LST techniques frequently - Stay on top of defoliation, she gets really bushy - She seemed to really like CalMag at full strength in compost extracts Thank you growdiaries.com Thank you growmies for all your advise Thank you Fastbuds

Day 128... long journey behind...What can I say? Beautiful.... last time removed the injured leaves due to covering but now she is coming back. ;) Weather condition is still right compare to September in London but okay. I hope she will do all the way the flowering and nice smoke comes off.

These are the seeds from my auto breeding project earlier this year. That diary link can be found here: https://growdiaries.com/diaries/129779-grow-journal-by-m0use Germinated by scarification of the seed with an emery board then soaking in water for 12hrs, I added in the step of paper towel for another 12hrs then planted outside with myco in the hole. Watered in with some LABS "Lactic Acid Bacteria Serum [Lactobacillus]" and Transplanter MS-CS RootRescue. They all popped up within a few days after planting outside. They are in a acti-sol fortified soil and should not need much love. I ran out of mesh to protect them so bamboo spikes will keep the birds at bay... hopefully. I also have a twin setup of these seeds but in a planter with heavy soil, they will be running side by side for comparison.

Title: 100% ChatGPT-Guided Grow – 12/12 Fast Flower Test (With Supervision) Hey growers! This grow is an experiment: I'm letting ChatGPT guide my entire grow cycle, from lighting to nutrients to environmental tweaks. It’s all based on AI suggestions. Of course, I’ll still be keeping a close eye on things — if I see something going wrong or the plants aren’t vibing with the plan, I’ll step in. But the idea is to test how far AI can take a grow under controlled conditions. Strains – All from @Sweet_Seeds (F1 Fast Version): Mental Rainbow F1 Fast Version Tropicanna Poison F1 Fast Version S.A.D. Sweet Afgani Delicious F1 Fast Version Gorilla Girl F1 Fast Version Setup: Coco in 20L @MarsHydroLED SmartPots Grow tent: @SecretJardin DR240W Lighting: 2x 720W LM301H EVO LEDs 12/12 from seed Germination: May 14th / Main grow starts May 20th Nutrients: Hy-Pro Coco A/B CalMag Pro, @BAC Silica Power, F1 Extreme Booster Irrigation: Week 1 hand watering, then Blumat pH starts at 5.8 CO₂ supplementation via natural gas system (Spider Farmer GGS) Goal: Complete a full grow cycle in 10 weeks or less, from seed to harvest. Updates will be posted in a personal yet informative style — a hybrid of stoner chill and data-driven grow logs. Let’s see what AI can do in the grow tent. Stay tuned! 🤖🌿 🌱 Weeks 1–3 (May 20 – June 9) – Seedling to Early Flower (Stretch Phase) Goals: Strong root development, firm stem structure, controlled stretch Light: 12/12, start at ~500 PPFD → ramp up to 800 PPFD (day 14–21) CO₂: 1500 ppm (only active when lights are on and temps 26°C) Temperature: 26–28°C day / 22–24°C night RH: Start at 70% → gradually lower to 60% Nutrients (EC ramp-up): Start EC: 1.0 → increase to 1.4 Plagron Cocos A+B + CalMag Pro (0.2 EC tap water) Always mix Silica Power first (0.1 ml/L) Actions: Week 2: Start light defoliation on lower leaves Week 3: Begin LST if desired pH: 5.8 throughout the veg phase 🌸 Weeks 4–5 (June 10 – June 23) – Flowering Phase 2 (Bud Set) Goals: Initiate flower formation, maintain healthy leaf mass, stimulate bloom EC: 1.5–1.7 (monitor Blumat watering rate carefully) RH: 55–60% Nutrients: Plagron Cocos A+B CalMag Pro Silica Power (0.1 ml/L – only until end of week 5) Start B.A.C. F1 Extreme Booster at half dose, watered manually twice a week Light: 900–1000 PPFD if plants can handle it 🌼 Weeks 6–7 (June 24 – July 7) – Flowering Phase 3 (Bud Building) Goals: Develop dense flower structure, maximize flowering potential EC: Up to 1.8 max RH: 45–50% Nutrients: @Plagron Cocos A+B + CalMag Pro @BAC. F1 Extreme Booster at full strength Actions: Final defoliation at beginning of week 6 Inspect leaves regularly for airflow and mold prevention 💧 Weeks 8–9 (July 8 – July 21) – Ripening Phase Goals: Maximize terpenes, trichome maturity, flush medium Week 8: EC: taper down to 1.4 Stop using booster Optional single flush with enzymes (manual watering) Week 9: Only plain tap water through Blumat (~0.2 EC) Temperature: 24–26°C Dim lights to ~600 PPFD for final 3–4 days ✂️ Week 10 (July 22 – July 28) – Harvest Trichome check: Aim for 10–20% amber with a loupe Optional: 48 hours darkness before harvest Temperature: Keep low (20–22°C) to preserve terpenes Deadline: Harvest no later than July 28 Powered by the new 2025 @SpiderFarmerLED GGS system.. Detailed setup (only SF parts mentioned here): SF GGS Grow Light Controller (1x) SF GGS AC10 Kit (1x) SF GGS 6 Inch Clip Fans (2x) SF GGS 6 Inch Inline Duct Fan (1x) SF GGS SensorPro Kit SF Ultrasonic Humidifier May 20 – CO₂ moved outside, lighting dilemma, and a warm future ahead Moved the CO₂ generator outside the tent today. Immediate win: steady 700 PPM from just the pilot light, no active burn needed. When turned off, it drops neatly to 400 PPM, matching the calibration point. Double-checked with the Dimlux CO₂ sensor—readings line up perfectly. Still no tracking info for the originally ordered lights, so out of impatience I grabbed two new 720W LM281B fixtures from Germany this afternoon. Should arrive Friday/Saturday. It's a Trade Assurance order, so in theory, I'm covered. Now the question: let the seedlings coast at 259 µmol for two more days, or hang the old lights to boost them to 500 µmol? Eight out of twelve are already above soil, and honestly, I’d rather not mess with the current vibe. Leaning toward leaving them be—low stress, happy sprouts. Best part: temps dropped to 27.9˚C inside the tent now that the CO₂ generator’s out. Room itself is 24˚C, so all in all pretty chill. Curious what’ll happen once those dual 720W monsters fire up… it’s gonna get toasty, no doubt. 24/05: Stocked up on new Plagron nutes—finally. Now I can lock back into the full 10-week feeding plan (Plagron Cocos + B.A.C.). Flushing the res tonight and going full reset. Mixing fresh soup right after, dialed in to match this schedule: Week 1: Plagron Cocos A/B: 2 ml/L B.A.C. Silica Power: 0.2 ml/L Plagron CalMag Pro: 0.5 ml/L B.A.C. F1 Extreme Booster: 0 ml/L EC: 0.9–1.0 pH: 5.8 PPFD: 500 DLI: 22 RH Day: 70% RH Night: 65% CO₂: 700 ppm

Roots look very healthy I tried different method for starting the seedling that seem to work. Plant seems very healthy at 10 days of growth. Will try to do the shortest veg time possible. Having issue with water temp. I added some H2O2 and will make new solution tomorrow, will try to change it twice per week

TUESDAY 8/13: I fed her about a half-gallon with big bloom, bembe, kelp me kelp you, terpinator, and beastie bloomz. WEDNESDAY: She got a little rain last night and the temperatures are about 10 degrees cooler than usual today. THURSDAY: Temperatures are back to 100f+ today. I wasn't able to get down to the site at all..hopefully she wont miss me as badly as I miss seeing her...😟 FRIDAY: I sprinkled some bat guano and silicium flash on her soil and douched her with about a half gallon of water including some beastie bloomz, terpinator, and bembe.

Saludos 🙌 completando la séptima semana y comienzo de floración 🙏 Cambié el fotoperiodo el día 2/04 y la planta dió una buena crecida desde entonces. Comenzó a oler un poco más también pero todavía sin señales de pistillos, ansioso para verlos. Buenos humos 🍃
