retrospective: they both died of overwatering or lack of oxigen due to an owner thats thought it will be easy. put them under 15min/15min WET/DRY cycle they day they reached the floor of the pot. once while changing the water they were off for 1+hours, which may have hurt them severly, rootcolor never was the same after that from white to gray around these days..

*english version below* Blütewoche 3 – Das kontrollierte Chaos im Citrus-Labor Diese Woche hatte im Zelt etwas von einem wissenschaftlichen Versuch, der langsam beginnt, außer Kontrolle zu geraten – aber genau so, wie wir es wollen. Wachstum & Struktur Der Stretch hat sich nun offiziell beruhigt. Die Pflanzen tun jetzt so, als wären sie die ganze Zeit vollkommen zivilisiert gewesen. Statt Höhenrausch gibt’s nun fokussiertes Kraftbündeln in die Blüten. Das Dach ist mittlerweile eine homogene, grüne Welle, sauber ausgerichtet wie ein geordnetes Blatt-Array. Oben wurde schon etwas entlaubt – so viel, dass man es inzwischen kaum noch sieht, weil die Damen schneller nachlegen als man schneiden kann. Der große Eingriff steht aber noch aus: Lollipopping Phase II – die chirurgische Endrunde. Wenn der untere Bereich fertig freigestellt ist, bleibt nur noch pure Effizienzmaschine übrig: Stamm, Weg, Bud. Blütenentwicklung Die Blütenstände haben diese Woche einen riesigen Sprung gemacht. Von „Wir probieren mal was aus“ zu „Okay, jetzt legen wir richtig los“. Die Cluster sind gut verteilt, dicht, voller frischer, weißer Pistillen und alles schreit danach, dass die nächsten Wochen interessant werden. Und das Beste: Reib mal an einem Zuckerblatt – da kommt dir schon jetzt dieses knackige Zitronenterpen-Profil entgegen. So klar und frisch, dass es fast im Auge brennt… im positiven Sinne. Systemstatus – läuft wie ein Uhrwerk EC: stabil bei 1.5 Wassertemperatur: 19°C – Chiller arbeitet wie ein Kühlschrank auf Red Bull Raumtemperatur: 25°C RLF: 58–60% → perfekte VPD für frühe Blüte pH: brav stabil, keine wilden Ausreißer Technik-Showcase Die Under-Canopy-Beleuchtung sorgt jetzt für diesen „UFO-Unterboden-Glow“, der aussieht, als würden die Pflanzen gleich abheben. Das RDWC läuft absolut glasklar, O₂-Sättigung im Premiumbereich und die Mars Hydro oben drüber macht fleißig Druck. Und dann noch das neue Gadget: Dein Mikroskop. Ein Spielzeug, das vermutlich gefährlicher ist als jedes Add-On im Zelt, denn man will plötzlich ALLES analysieren: Harzköpfchen, Blattzellen, PPSI-Strukturen… und wahrscheinlich irgendwann auch, ob die Pflanzen heimlich zurückwinken. Fazit der Woche Blütewoche 3 bringt Stabilität, Aroma, Spannung und Vorfreude. Der Stretch ist vorbei, die Bühne gehört jetzt den Blüten – und die liefern. Mit der kommenden Lollipop-Operation und weiterem Lichtdruck dürfte die Anlage jetzt in die Phase kommen, in der man sich fragt: „Wie voll kann ein 120er Zelt eigentlich werden, bevor es rechtlich als Landwirtschaft gilt?“ -------------------------------------------------- Flowering Week 3 – Controlled Chaos in the Citrus Laboratory This week inside the tent felt like watching a scientific experiment slowly slip out of control — but exactly in the way we hoped for. Growth & Structure The stretch has officially calmed down. The plants are now pretending they were perfectly civilized all along. Instead of reaching for the sky, they’re now channeling all energy into bud production. The canopy has turned into a uniform green wave, aligned like a carefully arranged leaf array. Some defoliation was done earlier, though the girls have grown so fast that it’s barely noticeable anymore. But the big procedure is still ahead: Lollipopping Phase II – the surgical finale. Once the lower section is fully cleaned, only pure efficiency remains: stem, pathway, bud. Bud Development The flowers made a huge jump this week. They went from “We’re experimenting…” to “Alright, now we’re getting serious.” The clusters are evenly distributed, dense, and bursting with fresh white pistils — everything is signaling that the next weeks are going to be fun. And the highlight: Rub one of the sugar leaves… that crisp lemon terpene profile already hits you. Sharp, fresh, and almost stinging the eyes — in the best possible way. System Status – Running Like a Machine EC: steady at 1.5 Water Temp: 19°C – chiller performing like a fridge on energy drinks Room Temp: 25°C RH: 58–60% → ideal VPD for early bloom pH: stable and obedient Tech Showcase The under-canopy lighting now creates this “UFO glow” underneath the plants — looking like the whole root zone is preparing for lift-off. RDWC is crystal clear, O₂ levels are premium, and the Mars Hydro above is pushing photons like it means it. And then… the new gadget: Your microscope. A toy more dangerous than any nutrient bottle — because suddenly you want to analyze EVERYTHING: trichomes, leaf cells, stomata, probably even if the plants secretly wave back. Weekly Verdict Flower Week 3 brings stability, aroma, excitement, and anticipation. The stretch is done, the stage belongs to the buds — and they’re delivering. With the upcoming lollipopping operation and increasing light intensity, the setup is entering that phase where you start to wonder: “How full can a 120×120 tent get before it legally counts as agriculture?”

Our Zamnesia autoflowers have been on their journey through the magical flowering period for a while now, this is the second week of flowering considering that autoflowers still flower spontaneously some sooner than others but all around the 3rd-4th week. ---- The general environmental conditions are good, the heat has increased a bit more but for the first weeks of flowering it is not a big problem, let's remember to never exceed 27 degrees centigrade in the last 4 weeks to avoid compromising the quality of the flowers. If necessary open the growbox but never let it exceed 27-30 degrees where 30 is already a lot. The positive thing is that as soon as the lights go out the change is already somewhat visible and as autumn progresses we will also improve. The humidity is fluctuating but we try to control it with two dehumidifiers when necessary, pushing both of them possibly not into the growbox but directly into the room. (I dehumidify the room and the air in the growbox should also be dehumidified) --- This strain has really intrigued us for a feature that we love around here: the plant could turn black in the last weeks of flowering. And I'm taking the saints of all religions to make it happen because I have a new set of macro lenses and I would like to show you something between space and heaven passing through the inside of a black hole. The plant is growing very well, healthy, green leaves no signs of deficiency or excess, great work Plagron! Until last week the lateral buds were practically aligned with the main cola now a tower is starting from the center that will be a miracle of nature. The second plant is a week behind for now I'll only show you this one which is very beautiful. --- Fertilization program - The fertilizers are always Plagron and I'm following the table that I generated on the site depending on the chosen substrate. Create your card and follow it, never be presumptuous my friend as I have been in the past, follow the card and look at the plants, not all need the same amount of fertilizer. We have come to the time to give a good dose of iron in the first weeks of flowering, already of race life not sprayed but mixed with fertilizers. We then added the power buds to stimulate the birth and development of the flowers. ---- https://plagron.com - Power Roots - 1ml/l - Alga Bloom - 4 ml/l - Pure Zym - 1 ml/l - Sugar Royal - 1ml/l - Vita Race - 5 ml/l - Power Buds - 1 ml/l --- The dehumidifier now runs between 50% and 55% --- The 100% Organic pack by Plagron can be found on Zamnesia at the link: https://www.za mnesia.io/it/11457-pla gron-easy-pack-natural.html // Strain Description // It is said that the orchid symbolizes love, refinement and beauty. Well, we can confirm that the Black Orchid Automatic contains all these attributes and many more. This autoflowering variety has a lot to offer: a particular but very pleasant aromatic profile, and a relaxing and carefree high. Furthermore, this plant is very productive when grown in optimal conditions. - Get a seed of this fantastic strain --- https://www.zamnesia.io/it/9493-zamnesia-seeds-black-orchid-automatic.html - Soil and Fertilizers entirely organic --- https://plagron.com/en buy on www.zamnesia.io - Growbox and air sistem --- https://www.secretjardin.com/ - Light — P2000 - https://www.viparspectra.com - Music and sound --- I made my girls listen to 432hz frequencies and music from www.radionula.com - Z --- You can find these seeds, much more from the world of cannabis, mushrooms and an incredible series of accessories and gadgets on the reference site not only mine but of many growers ---- https://www.zamnesia.io

Day 30. In few days i will try to do something with her, but i still dont know what ;)))) leaves are huge, they shade everything, she is lowest, so sides are very weak and underdeveloped compared to other two girls in this run , hope side branches will stretch this week some ... Mars TS1000 - Light is solid and does job. For last week output is on max . Still rotate a lot, but am happy with development. I miss more good wind inside, but i live in shared house ;)))))))))))) even really silent air system is still loud on desired speeds ... Hope next week ill send her to flower. Will top up with Worm Castings and Mycorrhizae during training in few days, when girls will be watered next time. Rhythm is good, every 3 days pots are light. 1.5 liters to each went straight in after photo shoot. Day 33. Applied BioBizz Leaf Coat when lights went off. Loads of training was made today too. Day 34. Now girls are trained daily. Top shoot twisting, leaf tucking, rotation around axis , changing positions inside of tent and so on. Always wash hands before any training, it is a must. Still havent made mind, scrog or lst ... Think tomorrow will be watering day and i have to decide which way to go , i am fliping them at next watering 100%, otherwise again rush to harvest before late spring holidays ... Happy Growing !!!

March 08 I left the air purifier on by accident again last night so there was a blue light overnight. The buds look good though. I taped the window up so I'm no longer having a humidity issue at night. I alternate between having the light on at 100% and 75% and recently 50% as well. March 10 I just fed them Ph'd water with molasses. Runoff pH 6.2-6.5, ppm 200-600. I'm having trouble getting good shots of the trichromes but I'm starting to see more amber ones. Less than 5%.

12/8 - Today is the start of week 10. I actually changed the nutes on this girl yesterday (12/7) because I had some extra time. I tapered her down to 60% strength (down from 75% during the previous week) due to some pH drifting issues. I removed a few errant leaves, but for the most part haven't messed with her much over the last week. She is starting to pack on the trichomes and hopefully will be bulking up over the next week or two before ripening. Thanks for stopping by the garden, and, as always, Happy Growing!

I fed the plant with Bio PK for the last time this week. From now on I will just water the plant without adding any nutrients. The buds are starting to swell up and they are getting more frost. The aroma is getting more intense from day to day.

Hello again, Growdiaries family! 😎 We have officially entered the flowering stage, and the transformation is becoming visible day by day. My Critical has reacted to the 12/12 flip with impressive vigor, showing that all the work during the vegetative stage was worth it. 📏 Evolution & Stretch: The plant has reached 24 cm today. The internodal spacing is stretching just as expected, and the 4 main colas are starting to aim for the light with more intensity. The canopy remains remarkably uniform. ✂️ Applied Techniques: Final Canopy Check: No more high-stress training. I’m letting the plant focus all its energy on flower development. Airflow & Structure: Thanks to the previous thinning, air is moving perfectly through the center and around the fasciated stem, which is crucial now that humidity needs to be kept in check. Visual Update: From now on, all the images I upload will be from the last day of the week (today) to show the most up-to-date progress. 💧 Watering & Nutrition: Volume: 1 Liter of water. The Bloom Cocktail: Today I fed her with a balanced mix: 1 ml/L Bio-Grow (to sustain the stretch), 1 ml/L Bio-Bloom, and 1 ml/L Top-Max. Temperature: Still using lukewarm water (approx. 21°C) to keep the roots comfortable in the terrace environment. 🌤️ Environment: Lighting: QBK1500PLUS with the Bloom switch ON (adding Red/IR spectrum). I’m keeping the 100% intensity at a 56 cm distance to maximize photosynthesis. Bunker Stats: Temperature remains stable at 27°C (ON) and 18°C (OFF). The double-tent insulation is doing a great job against the cold outside. Aroma: The 'fresh green' scent is turning slightly more complex and sweet. Summary: The plant is healthy, praying to the light, and starting to show the first signs of pre-flowers. The structure is solid enough to support the future buds. Now, we wait for the real stretch! Thanks for your support and happy growing! 😉👍

En la 4ta semana aumentamos la dosis del fertilizante para crecimiento, regulamos su p.h en 6.0 e hicimos una poda apical en el 4to nodo de cada una de las plantas.

**Encontrarás la traducción a español al final de la descripción** From/Desde: 22/03/19 || To/Hasta: 28/03/19 From day/Desde día: 29 || To day/Hasta día: 35 You can find the Money Maker Diary here: ** Podéis encontrar el diario de las Money Maker aquí:** https://growdiaries.com/diaries/25667-gorillamakingmoney-gorilla-vs-money-m -----IMAGES & VIDEOS----- Video 1: Exactly the same video as 2 but accelerated +400% to fix it to 1 minute for instagram. Video 2: 7 days (29~35) TimeLapse, 1 image each 60 secs @ 30 fps Video 9: An overview video not as awesome as it's music 😂💪 Video 10: Myself working on the babies, lowering tops, topping & training. Video 12: Full working on the secondary Gorilla, twisting some branches, topping & training. -----WEEK SUMMARY----- Well, now i'm getting a bit scared as i adventured myself into Photoperiod, high training, full topping... in indoors at once. I feel that plants are going good, but i really don't know what am i doing, and if i'm doing well. Also i don't know how much time should i give them of vegetation stage, because i don't want to eternalize myself with this tent, so i'm planning to leave this upcoming 6th week and maybe the 7th of vegetation, but no more. Anyway they look pretty atm 😻. In video 10 the main-linning Gorilla suffered an accident as i grabbed the main left branch from a weak point and it has broken (sec 39 aprox.) so it has one less node than the right branch. -----WATERING CALENDAR----- 24/03/19 - 1.000 ml with all week nutrients @ 0.9 E.C. PH5.8 *****ESPAÑOL***** -----IMÁGENES & VÍDEOS----- Vídeo 1: TimeLapse, exactamente el mismo vídeo que el 2 pero acelerado a un poco más del 300% para ajustarlo a 1 minuto para Instagram. Vídeo 2: 7 días (29~35) TimeLapse, 1 imagen cada 60 segundos @ 30 fps. Vídeo 9: Un vídeo general no tan increíble como la música de fondo 😂💪. Video 10: Trabajando en las pequeñas, rebajando las alturas, haciendo topping y entrenando. Video 12: Trabajando a pleno en la segunda Gorilla, girando algunas ramas, haciendo toppings y entrenándola. -----SUMARIO SEMANAL----- Bueno, ahora estoy empezando a estar asustado. Me he aventurado a probar con fotodependientes, entrenamiento fuerte y super topping, todo a la vez. Siento que las plantas van bien, pero realmente no se lo que estoy haciendo ni si lo estoy haciendo bien. También tengo dudas sobre cuanto tiempo más dejarlas en estado vegetativo ya que no me quiero eternizar con este armario, por lo que estoy planeando dejar esta sexta semana de crecimiento y quizás una séptima, pero no más. Aun así y con todo, las nenas se ven preciosas 😻. En el vídeo 10 sufro un accidente en la Gorila con main-linning ya que amarré el final del tallo principal izquierdo por un punto débil y este se partió (sec 39 aprox.), por lo que tiene un piso de topping de más en comparación con tallo derecho. -----CALENDARIO DE RIEGO----- 24/03/19 - 1.000 ml con todos los nutrientes semanales @ 0.9 E.C. PH5.8

A lot going on this week!! Feeding 3 quarts every Sunday and Wednesday at this point. I did a light defoliation on Monday and did a more thorough defoliation on Friday! I opened up a lot of bud sights and it shows in the pics from late in the week!! I just turned the fan and carbon filter on. Temps are currently holding at 73-74F and the humidity is between 43-45%. I'm very happy with that! I hope to keep them both happy!! Enjoy!
