The Holidays caused a little headache this past week. Was a few hours late on water schedule due to holiday commitments. Found the middle plant had sucked all the water out and went into underwater stage. A few of the giant fan leaves took a hit, but not too bad. Didn't change anything other than water schedule to every day now and the leaves had no further damage/discoloration. All leaves still praying and doing good. Trichromes starting to pick up on all the plants now. Had a situation in my other tent with a plant that shouldn't have been saved, that i saved, and seems to have slightly hermied and I didn't catch it. Not terrible, as out of a 6 oz plant, I found 42 seeds. Hoping that tent doesn't effect this room, but it's possible it has. Just gonna ride it out now and see how it goes.

Cette semaine, j'attends impatiemment l'explosion de fleurs et doucement elles explosent 🌱🌺 Les feuilles jaunissent je les enlève avant qu'elle ne tombent. 🍃 La température 🌡️est bien tombée depuis cette été. Cela devrait faire une meilleure récolte !

So it’s the end of Week 5, Day 35 for the Sweet Seeds Gorilla Girl XL auto flowering grow. I have come to the conclusion that these four plants are not going to be XL after their pre-flower stretch. Overall the plants are healthy but the prolonged low humidity and temperatures have robbed them of the vigorous growth documented in my previous Sweet Seeds diary (Cream Mandarine XL Autos). I am disappointed that this will most likely be an XS harvest but a tiny quantity of quality bud is better than nothing. I gave them their first feeding of GHE FloraNova Grow fertilizer at a rate of 1.25 ml/gallon and this is 1/4 of a full dose that would be given to a photosensitive strain. I am still watering every fourth day at a rate of 2.8 litres per plant or 0.7 of a litre per plant per day. I will only be using the fertilizer every other watering or every eight days. That’s about it for this update and on to… Mom’s Tip for Week #5- To Tuck or Take? The when, where, why and how to defoliate Autoflowers successfully…. Lets start with some basic Biology- Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants take in sunlight, water and Carbon Dioxide and transform it into energy in the form of sugars that feed the plant and make it grow. So essentially, every fan leaf on your plant is a solar panel collecting light and therefore valuable in it’s own right. I always try to tuck my leaves if possible before considering removal as my plants need all the energy they can get to power through until harvest. But sometimes tucking isn’t enough or just isn’t an option anymore so here are my suggestions for taking the fan leaves from your Cannabis plants if needed. When- defoliating Autos can be done anytime throughout the grow although it’s generally not done within the first 3-4 weeks. The plants are usually quite small and those early weeks are valuable growing time that these plants simply can’t afford to miss. This is when I find leaf tucking to be most valuable, allowing the plants to keep what few solar panels they have while also allowing the grower to position the leaves so that they are out of the way. I personally find that I defoliate my plants the most over the final 3-4 weeks of the grow as foliage is dying off on it’s own by that point and a few less leaves at harvest time is always a good thing! Of course anytime you see dead/dying or diseased foliage, it should be removed as needed throughout the grow. Where- defoliating Autos is a delicate balance due to their small size and short lifespan. If my plants are healthy, thriving and tucking is no longer an option, I will only remove fan leaves if they are covering/blocking new growth or potential bud sites. As the plants age and the foliage begins to die off naturally, I tend to remove the oldest, lowest growth first working my way up the plant as needed until harvest. Why- defoliating Autos is done for a few basic reasons but only as an extreme in my garden when all else fails. Removing certain large leaves will allow more light into the lower portion of the plant’s canopy reaching young branches or potential bud sites. As the plants age, it also helps with increasing airflow around your swelling buds thus reducing your risks for mold and fungi in humid grow environments. Removing any and all dead/dying or diseased foliage is absolutely necessary in keeping your plants healthy and the grow room clean and pest free. How- defoliating Autos is simple if you keep it simple. Only remove what you absolutely have to and use a sterilized set of sharp pruners for a clean, controlled cut. As the plants age and the foliage begins to die off naturally, just wait. What doesn’t fall off on it’s own will snap off with a simple twist of the leaf’s stem. If the leaves don’t come off with ease, they’re just not quite ready yet so be patient. Be mindful that removing the solar panels from your Cannabis plants is always risky business but Autoflowers are even more challenging in their own way. Smaller plants with a lower leaf to bud ratio and a short lifespan means less room for error so paying close attention to the when, where, why and how is crucial for successfully defoliating Autoflowers. Tuck if you can, only take what you absolutely have to and of course- never take more than 25% of your plant’s overall foliage at one time as this can be devastating or deadly to even the healthiest of plants. Allow your plants to take the lead and they will show you which leaves are ready to go- at what time, all on their own just as nature intended.

I thought I just had two of this strain, but it turns out that the 134g plant was actually a C4 hybrid! It isn't as pungent smelling as the others, but seems to have it's own unique flavor going on. I like it! 115g - C4ndycaine [Candy Cane x C4] 134g - C4ndycaine [Candy Cane x C4] 151g - C4ndycaine [Candy Cane x C4]  TOTAL: 400g 👍

Chopped and I'll hang them in the he dry tent and keep it around 60rh/17c for as long as I can. 🤑 Update: got the tent at 15c/61rh and wow the buds have a different type of firmness than before. I can't wait... So far my best grow of the 3

Hello there. week 7 from seed and it looks like sweet seeds knows what They are talking about. 8-8.5 weeks to harvest looks like we are on track. I added a little bloom booster 2 weeks ago back-to-back weeks, and I thought I fucked up the PH. Leaves turning yellow looked like a lock out. Come to find out these are super-fast flowering. so, it is at the end of its life cycle. It is my first time with these genetics, and I am very impressed. I made a pretty hot super soil from what I can deduce. From what I have seen in other recipes, and the wicking buckets were a new twist instead of fabric pots. and they took to it like fish to water. 3 of them the red poison did very well. the dark devil is not as tall but the color and smell or the stuff of legend. In My humble opinion. loos like the will come down next week no more water as the buckets are heavy. They should use up the water in the super soil and then 48hr of dark.💪 p.s. It is International Womens month. tell your favorite girl how awesome she is. and take a bong rip.

🌿 Week 1 – Vegetative Stage – Mango Kush (Zamnesia Seeds) Grower: Dog Doctor Strain: Mango Kush Breeder: Zamnesia Seeds Light: Future Off – Black Series 600 Feed: Aptus Regulator & Start Booster (1 ml/L each) ⸻ 🌱 One Strong Soul – The Survivor Queen This week brought a bit of unexpected news. Despite what appeared to be three successful germinations, only one seedling actually made it out of the soil. It’s a mystery we may never fully solve, but in hindsight, it might have something to do with a cheap heat mat purchased online on Amazon. We noticed inconsistent temperature zones across the mat—some areas were too hot, others too cool. That uneven heating likely stressed or even cooked the other two seeds below the soil. The mat’s now in the garbage where it belongs. 🔥🗑️ Lesson learned: not all tools sold online are built with plants in mind. But rest assured, this is not a setback. This is just one of those things that happens when you’re working with living beings and delicate systems. We’ve already germinated a fresh Mango Kush seed, and she will be joining the journey: 🌕 12/12 from seed, a special feature for our series, showing a different growing style with a late-starting plant. She’ll be a little different, and we love that. ⸻ 👑 The Queen That Stands Our remaining Mango Kush lady is growing beautifully. She’s on her way to the third pair of true leaves, and she’s doing it with grace and vigor under the Black Series 600 LED by Future Off. The spectrum is doing wonders, it’s balanced, deep, and promoting lush leaf development without overstretching. She had a tough start, but she’s a fighter. With a little support and good lighting, she stood back up and now stands proud and strong. ⸻ 💧 Feeding & Watering Routine We’re continuing with the same gentle, rooting-focused feeding regimen: • Aptus Regulator – 1 ml per liter • Aptus Start Booster – 1 ml per liter Both products support strong cell development and early-stage vitality without overstressing young roots. We are bottom-watering—placing water in the tray and allowing the plant to wick up moisture from below. This encourages the roots to grow downward, strengthening the root system and minimizing the chance of rot or topsoil compaction. It’s gentle and precise, just how we want it at this fragile stage. ⸻ 🔍 What This Week Is (and Isn’t) What it is: • A week of resilience and learning. • A reminder that every plant has its own path, and sometimes the one that survives tells the best story. • A good week for root development, gentle light, and close care. What it’s not: • A week for rushing or overfeeding. • A week for disappointment, we keep going, we adjust, and we grow stronger with every lesson. 🎥 A Special Chapter Begins Soon, the second Mango Kush will join, and she’ll be flowering from seed under 12/12 lighting, a beautiful side story in our main grow series. Different paths, same love. This series is all about showing real growth, from the victories to the surprises, and teaching along the way.
