Grow Diaries Report: Flower Week 1 – Stretch Madness & Heavy Grooming 🌿🚀
Week 9 – Flower Week 1 Update
The flowering phase has officially kicked off, and wow, this plant is on a mission to touch the sky! The stretch this week has been intense, with the plant shooting up significantly. To manage her vigor and focus her energy on bud production, I’ve had to step in with defoliation and additional lollipopping.
This Week’s Highlights
Massive Stretch: The plant stretched dramatically this week, filling up the vertical space in the tent.
Defoliation: I removed a significant amount of fan leaves to improve light penetration to the lower branches.
Lollipopping Redux: Further cleaned up the lower parts of the plant, focusing her resources on the top colas.
What I Did
Lollipopping: Removed more of the lower branches and leaves that were unlikely to contribute to bud production.
Defoliation: Took off some large fan leaves to improve airflow and light exposure throughout the canopy.
Nutrients: Continued with the bloom feeding schedule, ensuring a balance of phosphorus and potassium for flower development.
Environment Management: Adjusted the light height to prevent light burn and tweaked the fan placement to improve airflow in the now more open canopy.
Observations
The plant’s stretch has been both impressive and challenging, but the defoliation and lollipopping seem to be working. The top canopy looks well-lit and primed for flower development. No signs of stress from the grooming, which is always a relief during such an aggressive stretch.
Challenges
The rapid vertical growth is pushing the limits of the grow tent. I’ll need to monitor her closely to prevent overcrowding or light burn.
Next Steps
Keep monitoring the stretch over the next week—potential supercropping if necessary to control height.
Fine-tune the nutrient schedule to ensure the plant has everything it needs as bud sites develop.
Maintain low humidity to reduce the risk of mold or mildew during early flowering.
Conclusion
The first week of flowering has been an explosive start! The stretch is real, but with proper management, she’s looking set to develop some fantastic buds in the weeks ahead. 🌟
Any tips for managing a stretch-happy plant in a tight grow tent? Drop your advice below! 😊

Week 2 of the flowering phase flew by 🌱💨. Unfortunately, I may have overdone it with potassium or kept the water level too high – the classic signs of clawing leaves were evident. Thankfully, they seem to be recovering now and are back under control 💪🍃.
My IR night experiment is showing clear results 🌌: The plants exposed to infrared radiation at night stretched significantly more. This might be especially beneficial for this indica-dominant strain as it leads to better canopy distribution, improved airflow, and reduced risks of mold and disease. Plus, the light distribution is much more efficient now, which I’m excited to see pay off.
On the downside, my Orange Sherbert turned hermaphroditic 😔. It’s hard to pinpoint the cause – overfertilization seems unlikely since I’m using only organic nutrients. I suspect it might be linked to an E-field experiment I’ve been running. To confirm this theory, I’ll conduct a new grow with a similar strain next year to see if the electric field negatively impacts cannabis development.
Stay tuned for updates! Drop a like and follow along for more grow insights 🌿✨. See you next week!
Woche 2 der Blütephase ist wie im Flug vergangen 🌱💨. Leider habe ich wohl etwas zu viel Kalium gegeben oder den Wasserstand zu hoch gehalten – die typischen Anzeichen von Adlerkrallen waren sichtbar. Zum Glück scheinen sich diese jetzt zurückzubilden und sind wieder unter Kontrolle 💪🍃.
Mein IR-Nachtexperiment zeigt bereits deutliche Ergebnisse 🌌: Die Pflanzen, die nachts mit Infrarotstrahlung bestrahlt wurden, haben deutlich stärker gestretcht. Das ist besonders bei dieser indica-dominanten Sorte wahrscheinlich von Vorteil, da es zu einer besseren Verteilung des Blätterdachs führt. Dadurch verbessert sich die Luftzirkulation, das Risiko von Schimmel und Krankheiten wird minimiert, und die Lichtverteilung wird effizienter. Ich bin gespannt, wie sich das weiter auswirkt!
Leider hat meine Orange Sherbert gezwittert 😔. Woran das genau liegt, kann ich schwer sagen. Eine Überdüngung halte ich für unwahrscheinlich, da ich nur biologischen Dünger verwendet habe. Ich vermute, dass mein E-Feld-Experiment eine Rolle spielt. Um das zu bestätigen, werde ich nächstes Jahr einen neuen Durchlauf mit einer ähnlichen Sorte machen und prüfen, ob das elektrische Feld tatsächlich eine ungünstige Rückentwicklung der Pflanze verursacht.
Bleibt dran, lasst ein Like da und folgt mir für weitere Updates 🌿✨. Bis nächste Woche!

After a questionable start, she's up and going, so the grow off is official! I have plugged in some organic items into a Pro Mix HP base to get this lady out of the blocks organically and get that root system spread out through the nursery pot. I fed some wicking cord through the drainage holes to make a sip system, basically bottom watering to deepen the root system development. I layered the soil into the pot so the available nutrients increase as the roots descend. I added a little mycorrhizae in the soil where the seed was placed to get things cooking and used Recharge adjusted to 6.0 pH to buffer my amended starter mix. Now that she's showing a little more vigor, I'm adding a little Kelp, CalMag+, and MegaCrop for her to sip on... A little organo-salt treatment that will make sure she's got all she needs available to allowing her to really blow up!

Hallo 👋👋👋 ein weiterer vergangener grow meinerseit, den ich nun Stück für Stück hochladen werde. Dies ist auch mein erster Balkongrow.
Es handelt sich hierbei um eine photoperiodische Blue Sunset Sherbet von Barney’s Farm und einer Royal Jack automatic von Royalqueenseeds.
Beide sind direkt in einem 8l Topf auf dem Balkon gestartet und wurden mit florgsnics ausreichend ausgestattet.
Die Jack hat sich absolut prächtig entwickelt, die Sherbet durfte einige wilde Entscheidungen meinerseits miterleben.
Wünsche viel Freude beim Lesen :)

d.57 - looks alright, had to do some lst and adjustments to level out the height
gave an additional biotab.
move my big fan, below the plant, in an effort to push the moisture upwards and out, which resulted in me being able to raise the lights further up.. my plant is way over the average height of is genetics, thanks to biotabs 🌞.
fastbuds said it would have an average height of 70-100 cm, and ny plant is closing in on the 80 cm and she keeps going ^^. and people say that autoflowers cant be main lined, well i believe this grow proves it.
achieved darker folliage in the bottom, so i believe that we are on the right track. hopefully the deficiency levels out.
day 62/63 gave an additional biotab so we are at 6 total. day 63 i gave 10 ml bio pk with the watering.

So excited to be finally drying her. She may have went another week, but it was time.
She was quite the trooper! She survived over feeding and over watering. She wore her battle scars proudly though!
Very nice nuggets, very little larf. Like maybe less than 10g. 💪👌
So very glad I have another, she deserves her own space!
Mouth watering strain Im glad I got to grow!
Again, TYVM Clarissa

She is amazing and just as I hoped!

Mystery Made 2 got harvested 16/11 and I'm planning to let her dry for 14-21 days before trimming and put them in glass+boveda (58%) and grove bags for final cure.
Drying conditions are as follows:
16-18°C
55-60% RH

Flowers are still putting on weight. Very frosty and lots of bud.she is still drinking 3.5 liters a day
