Weeks 7-9 Days 42-63-5 Both phenos got defoliation done to them and opened them up for fattening. They've stopped putting upwards hight and on day 42 I done their only heavy defol and put them back under my P1000 (100W led) which did this plant from start to finish. Kept steady feeds. The last 4 days or so it was put on water. After 6hrs dark rest both were chopped and hung upside down. (More indepth 3 week review) Phenos at the end of week 6 here, finished preflower both are around 62-65cm. Been the general hight for my other 2 pheno pot grow . Then on day 42 I done a hard defoliation and just put them back under the light for 3 weeks. Steadily kept feeding Xpert Nutrients but not in the way I should have. But, for the short time (9 weeks) and just making sure that the substrate never ran dry. I got some decent results. Again these were more tests. As I like to see how breeders phenos react in similar environments and you can't get closer than being in the same pot, got 2 small but more or less twins of Auto Fractal, giving me around 45-50 dry grams Nutrients were given sparcely but always made sure NPK feeds were no longer than 3 days apart. Had I given everyday and focused more on flushing etc. Id of gotten bigger phenos. But, it was a test. And I got to try their autos and now know that I'm most cases you won't get 7-10g plants. Just give enough space and don't stress and you'll get big autos. Put on good bud mass just under a 100w in a crowded tent. Got really fruity bud and overall very happy with my 2 small lush phenos 1st 2pheno (separate strains, autos kabul/opium also showed how steady the genrics are I've got a 5 pheno SCROG of Euphoria fem by Divine coming along nicely. I also have a white widow auto by divine in an 11L pot and its really big its still weeks out from being done. Proving to me. Their gentics are 🔥 and give good results if you put in the right effort. Thanks to my sponsors & all who stop by. Discount code from Xpert nutrients 20% off code:GGST

Ce fut une bonne semaine dans l'ensemble. J'ai augmenté la dose de l'engrais de base à 4,5ml/l. Les feuilles du bas ont commencé à jaunir sur un plant. Les autres sont encore verts foncés pour certains, quelques feuilles sont tombées aussi. J'ai coupé certaines branches du bas pour améliorer la qualité de celles supérieures mais pas sur tous les plants. Quand j'ai arrosé avec les engrais, un ppm de 650 et un pH de 5,75. J'ai attendu quatre jours puis j'ai arrosé à l'eau Mont roucous ( pH 6 indiqué mais des fois plus faible, et ppm constamment à 14) à raison de 1 litre par pot. La température le weekend fut gérée bien, entre 24 et 26 degrés, au niveau de la canopée, sinon la semaine, c'est entre 29 et 33 degrés ( pendant la journée) portes fermées

This week the plants were not in shock when switching to a larger pot.😬 The red spider (tetranychus) is attacking my garden😠 Within 1 week, I applied compost (for rabbits). silica, aloe juice, alfalfa, moringa. Enzymes from seeds, corn kernels, green beans, and rice seeds.😈 I made a net for the tree in the hope it can go through holes (10cm-10cm). I prune the branches that I want them to spread evenly over the net👽 Thank you for watching please leave advice at the bottom yo👺

Grow Report Woche 4: Technik, Topping & Tapferkeit Hallo zusammen 🌱👷‍♂️ Diese Woche hatte es in sich: technische Erweiterungen, kleine Rückschläge – und trotzdem geht’s weiter voran. Die Black Cherries vom Super Sativa Seed Club zeigen sich robust und widerstandsfähig, genau wie mein Optimismus! Blumat-Erweiterung 💧 Ich habe mein Bewässerungssystem aufgestockt und sechs zusätzliche kleine Blumat-Tropfer installiert, um auch die Oberfläche im Beet gleichmäßig feucht zu halten. - Vier Tropfer wurden direkt in die bestehenden Tropfringe integriert – so erhalten die Pflanzen Wasser von beiden Seiten. - Die restlichen Tropfer ergänzen das Setup rund um die Hauptwurzelbereiche. Ich bin gespannt, wie sich dieses doppelte Tropfsystem auswirkt – bislang sieht alles stabil aus. Astbruch – schnell reagiert Beim Verlegen der Tropfer ist leider ein getoppter Hauptast abgebrochen. - Innerhalb einer Minute habe ich ihn mit einem 3mm Blumat-Schlauch fixiert. - Nach zwei Tagen zeigt er wieder normales Wachstum – das nenne ich Notfallpflege mit Erfolg! - Der Größenunterschied wird durch gezieltes LST ausgeglichen – so bleibt alles in Balance. LST gestartet 🌿 Diese Woche habe ich auch mit dem Low Stress Training begonnen: - Jede Pflanze bekam ihre Triebe positioniert, um das Wachstum gleichmäßig und lichtoptimiert zu lenken. - Nur bei der Pflanze mit Astbruch habe ich vorsichtig agiert – dort wurden vorerst nur die unteren Triebe bearbeitet, damit sich die verletzte Stelle vollständig regenerieren kann. Kleines Chaos, große Zufriedenheit Es war eine anstrengende Woche, aber die Ergebnisse stimmen mich positiv: - Pflanzen sind vital, wachsen gut, und der Schaden wurde schnell behoben. - Der Übergang zur nächsten Wachstumsphase ist in vollem Gange – trotz kleiner Stolperer. 🎥 Zum Abschluss: Zeitraffer bis Woche 4 Die Pflanzen sind jetzt so groß, dass die Kamera eine neue Position bekommen hat – höherer Blickwinkel, mehr Übersicht. 👉 Der neue Zeitraffer zeigt die Entwicklung bis heute – von zarten Sämlingen zu kraftvollen Pflanzen. Ich hoffe, dass die nächsten Wochen etwas ruhiger verlaufen, damit ich mich voll auf die Pflege und Beobachtung konzentrieren kann – aber ich bleibe optimistisch und freue mich auf alles, was kommt! 🍒

Ever since I turned to mars hydro I have double sometimes nearly quadrupled my yields I first had with eBay lights (meh) I have never looked back since and gained so much respect from the community and the breeders too! And to hold the sponsors I do shows me that I am doing something right and I show appreciation to all who support! And that’s why I take a different effort to be fair and document you all! Even though I’m aware your businesses I just can’t be bias when it comes to the greatest I think you all are! Thank you for choosing me! (No I’m not the only one) just showing the love back as best as I can! 💚💚💚💚💚 thank you

Hello Diary. We have reached the end of this journey. Ten weeks in total, three weeks of vegetation and seven weeks of flowering, a total of 78 days since Sherbet Queen sprouted. Last week there were no surprises, I watered the plants regularly and observed the development of trichomes. As all three plants started to show here and there some brown trichomes at the end of the week, I decided on the 71st day to harvest. All in all I am very pleased with the look of the plant, it has developed nicely, the flowers are large and juicy and the smell is citrusy diesel. I had to connect the branches well because they started to bend a lot due to the weight, so I was afraid they would break because I wanted to place it nicely for the last photo shoot. It will now dry upside down for at least two weeks in the dark. The ventilation will stay on to make the airflow better. The condition in the grow box is satisfactory, the temperature is around 29 degrees and the humidity is slightly lower than 50%, and one fan blows all the time, mixing the air in the box. Here’s what the last week looked like. 19/07/2021 - Day 65. Watering. I adjusted the p.H to 6.3 and with 8 liters of water I watered all three plants evenly. Temp / Humidity on the farm - 30 degrees and 51% humidity. 21/07/2021 - Day 67. Watering. p.H 6.4. Same procedure as two days earlier. Temp / Humidity on the farm - 28 degrees and 41% humidity. 23/07/2021 - Day 69. Last watering. p.H I dropped to 6.4. Temp / Humidity on the farm - 29 degrees and 48% humidity. 25/07/2021 - Day 71. Photography and Harvest. After taking photos and video, I cut off the plant at the bottom of the stalk and hung it in a grow-box to dry in the dark. Whenever I write a report from the last week, some nostalgia overwhelms me after the harvest. Yet during that time you take care of that plant, send it positive energy, and hope it will reward you richly. In this case, I think I succeeded. See you soon with the final report.

Water + nutrients pH 5.6 solution temperature at 20 °. water every 2 days or if the WOOL is already wet / dry, but this plant is not limited to strong ppm doses and has been drinking plenty of water throughout its cultivation without high flow maintaining the balance between entry / exit. Check all the Ph and ppm of watering in and out of something important for the balance of things and you can increase or decrease the ppm at the desired time which is why the WOOL is already among my favorites. ZKITTLEZ OG AUTO 11L Vase / GRODAN rock wool and granulated wool cube high stability in terms of ph. Line of nutrients, something mixed as you can see throughout the cultivation, is just something beautiful to see. I loved relatively the growth in rock wool something recommendable without problems of watering the water runs perfectly the root area thrives as crazy mycorrhizae are indispensable in any harvest. ° -> Greetings to everyone in this incredible community! Thanks to this fantastic genetics And by Barney's work, I can only say that I am satisfied so far and it really is something that is easy to grow resistant all the time she ate well fulfilling a beautiful flower her flower buds are no longer visible due to clusters of high sugary activity a high potential in THC huge glands seen with the naked eye they gradually go to coloring I want this without a doubt a mixture of body and mind will block ready for a beautiful reading or work, speaking in flowers the tent is an incredible smell this genetics thanks in beautiful tones an incredible smell in its christmas tree shape its huge glue from above accompanied by beautiful sprouts that are more in times of snow 😁 the view and something to put on a song and enjoy the gift that life in us brings nature. ->

Sensi Seeds JACK HERER 31st December 2019 It's the Last day of the year and the little Jack Herer has a brand new home along with my other Photoperiod Plants. I erected a 3m x 2m x 1.8m Green House That completely covers the whole area. This Green house will serve a few purposes such as protection from any Rain during Flowering, Prying Eyes and Potential animal interference. Ive topped her now at the 5th node and other than that she's been left to her own devices to grow and thrive as she wishes. Speaking of wishes,,,, I would like to wish you all a very Happy New Year and I will be back Next Week for another Update. ***** The Video is of a visit from some Wild Red Tailed Black Cockatoos *******

Super Silver Haze (Zamnesia Seeds) – Flower Week 4 📖 Quick Recap – From Seed to Week 4 Flower • Week 1 Flower: Transition was smooth—plants showed pistils almost immediately, adapting well to the flip. Stable structure, great color, and strong roots already visible. • Week 2 Flower: Morphology shifted fast—nodes stacking, pistils multiplying. Feeding recipe adjusted: removed Start Booster, added Top Booster (0.25 ml/L), plus Plagron Power Buds, Sugar Royal, and Green Sensation. Plants handled higher temps like champions. • Week 3 Flower: Light defoliation done to open airflow and light penetration. Both phenos look like twins, compact, about 120 cm tall, hybrid-style leaves, strong root systems, and steady bud formation. VPD slightly high (~1.37 kPa), but plants remained stress-free. • Week 4 Flower (current): Buds are swelling, pistils thick and beautiful, leaves lush and symmetrical. Feeding recipe simplified—no All-In-One Liquid or Top Booster. Soil provides NPK; boosters fine-tune flower development, aroma, and resin potential. Week 4 Flower – Super Silver Haze (Zamnesia Seeds) Grower: Dog Doctor Strain: Super Silver Haze Breeder: Zamnesia Seeds Phenotypes: SSH #1 & SSH #2 Stage: Flower – Week 4 Pots/Medium: 11L fabric pots, custom super soil with Aptus amendments Watering: Hand watering (guided by substrate moisture) Tent: 8×8 shared environment Control: TrolMaster Hydro-X + Tent-X, WCS substrate sensors Lighting: Future Of Grow Black Series 600W + ThinkGrow ICL-300 (x2) + Lumatek Zeus Compact Pro 465W Climate this week: ~29–30 °C, RH 60–65%, VPD ~1.3–1.4 kPa, CO₂ ~700 ppm ⸻ Snapshot of the Week Week 4 marks the true turning point in flower. Both SSH girls are thriving, healthy, vigorous, and balanced like twins. Their bud sites are swelling, white pistils are thick and abundant, and the morphology shows textbook hybrid traits: broad yet elegant leaves, dense node spacing, and compact stacking. What’s especially impressive: • Consistency: Both phenos remain very similar in form and pace. • Bud set: Flowers are already defined and filling out evenly across the canopy. • Health: Zero stress from previous light defol, strong root expansion, and steady nutrient uptake. ⸻ Feeding Strategy – Why We Adjusted This week we removed Aptus All-In-One Liquid and Aptus Top Booster. Here’s why: • The super soil recipe prepared earlier already contains a strong base of NPK from pellets and amendments. At this stage, overfeeding could disrupt balance or push excess salts. • Instead, we’re focusing on boosters and stimulants to enhance flower initiation, resin metabolism, and plant resilience. Current Mix (per liter): • Aptus Regulator (0.15 ml) → Improves nutrient uptake, strengthens tissue, boosts stress tolerance. • Aptus CalMag Boost (0.25 ml) → Keeps structural integrity high under intense light and CO₂ conditions. • Plagron Power Buds (1 ml) → Stimulates rapid floral development and tighter bud formation. • Plagron Sugar Royal (1 ml) → Biostimulant that enhances secondary metabolism, terpenes, and resin potential. • Plagron Green Sensation (1 ml) → Complete flowering stimulator, focusing on density, aroma, and taste. Why this recipe works now: The soil provides the “meal,” while the boosters are the “spices.” We’re enhancing flavor, weight, and resilience without overwhelming the root zone. ⸻ Environmental Dynamics • Temperature: Still on the warm side (~29–30 °C), but stable. The incoming AC will soon help bring conditions closer to optimal. • Humidity: RH floats around 60–65%. At this flower stage, still acceptable, but we’re monitoring carefully to avoid mold risks as flowers thicken. • VPD: ~1.3–1.4 kPa. This is within a healthy mid-flower range—enough transpiration to drive nutrient uptake without locking stomata. • CO₂: ~700 ppm. Boosting photosynthesis and energy flow under high-intensity LEDs. Why this matters now: Flowering metabolism is extremely demanding—sugars, nutrients, and water must all move efficiently. Stable VPD, good airflow, and consistent irrigation ensure every part of the canopy stays productive. ⸻ Gear Check – Shoutouts • Lighting: The F.O.G. Black Series 600W, ThinkGrow ICL-300s, and Lumatek Zeus Compact Pro 465W are delivering a rich, full-spectrum spread with great canopy penetration. This balanced array ensures bud development isn’t just on top colas but throughout the plant. • Control & Monitoring: The TrolMaster Hydro-X + Tent-X system, coupled with WCS substrate sensors, allows precise irrigation based on actual root-zone moisture, EC, and temperature. This data-driven approach prevents over- or under-watering, keeps the medium stable, and maximizes nutrient efficiency. • Airflow & Filtration: Dual 6” extractors with carbon filters maintain fresh air exchange while neutralizing odors. Clean air is not just about smell control—it’s about disease prevention and consistent CO₂ delivery. ⸻ Education Corner – What Week 4 Flower Means At this stage, the plant is fully committed to flowering. • What to expect now: • Steady bud swelling, with white pistils covering all main sites. • A slight increase in daily water consumption. • Noticeable aroma starting to form—terpenes are building. • What NOT to expect yet: • No heavy trichome coverage—resin glands usually start to pop in weeks 5–6. • No “final bulk”—density and mass pack on in late flower (weeks 6–8+). ⸻ Looking Ahead to Week 5 • Bud Bulk: Expect pistils to continue exploding as flowers begin their first swelling cycle. • Trichomes: Resin production will soon kick in, expect frost to start appearing. • Environment: With AC in place, temps should drop into the mid-20s °C, and VPD will fall closer to the “sweet spot” for dense flowers and reduced disease pressure. • Defol Touch-ups: Another light defoliation may be needed around week 5–6 to open up bud sites deeper in the canopy. ⸻ Final Thoughts This Week The Super Silver Haze legacy is shining through, these phenos are vigorous, symmetrical, and stable, a perfect balance of old-school genetics and modern growing science. Big thanks to Zamnesia Seeds for representing this classic. It’s a privilege to watch her take shape week by week. To the community: thank you for sharing this journey.
