9/6 - Looks like 6 of 6 germinated. They are now in the nursery. Going in the Organic direction with this grow. First time trying it but i like the fact that you can have a "living soil", reuse the soil, and a big thing thing for me is that you don't have to flush like you probably should if you use salt based synthetic nutrients. My 2 cents. 9/14 - progressing nicely. Installed a better light source for them.

Aug 19th, Cappy #2 has been steady and filling out really nicely so far. Have added Phos-Fixer Blend Tea for her to build up her buds easier. This stuff has been working great with the Growdots, Azomite, Langbinite, alfalfa meal combo lately. Gonna keep working on that but think I found my start point atleast .. Still growing at a good clip tho, she's reaching for more light so I had adjusted the DLI some roughly between 35/40 now about the highest ill really ever go. Lights about 75% (640w) but get nice tight buds no need to run up my electric lol. But that's really about it for this week. Can't wait to see how this one goes I kinda biffed up my first one not being home to harvast it wasn't handled right .. learned alot this last year lol, definitely gotta automate more and get atleast 1 solid helper for times I'm physically unable. Due time grow rooms still coming together slowly aswell. Getting there tho .. Always appreciate everyone's time and support, hope ur all doing well !! Till next week!! Can't wait to see this one filled out !!

They were very similar looking plants in early growth, but one of them stretched about 10 inches more than the other. It only weighed a few more grams despite the extra height. They require no special attention at all and produced fairly well, though I'd have liked a bigger yield. The buds are dense and smell amazing. Plant A: 87g Plant B: 94g Final thoughts: Potency: 8/10 Yield: 7/10 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 8/10 Bag-appeal: 8/10 Bud density: 8/10 Special thanks to Spliff Seeds for sponsoring this grow! These are some truly impressive genetics. Fat, frosty delicious buds that keep you high for hours! What more could you ask for!👈😁👍

Week 4 - It’s Friday again, and that means it's update day! Another week has passed, and as usual, there's plenty to report. A lot has happened, and once again, I’m bringing you along on my journey as a total beginner in the world of growing. Every week is a new learning experience, and I’m excited to share what’s been going on in the tent as my Amnesia Zkittlez and Gorilla Cookies continue to grow. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key Growing Parameters -Humidity: 43-55% -VPD: Max 1.4 -Airflow: Always active at level 1, auto-adjusts when needed -Day Temperature: 25-26°C -Night Temperature: 22°C -Light Cycle: 20 hours light / 4 hours dark -Lamp: IONBOARD S24 from AC Infinity (240W) Watering Schedule: -Day 24: 1 liter -Day 26: 1 liter -Nutrients are applied with every watering Light Adjustments: -Light distance now at 50 cm -Intensity increased to level 10 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Growth Update The most noticeable change this week has been the incredible growth of the plants. I’ve uploaded some new photos for everyone to see, and it’s amazing how much they’ve shot up compared to last week. The differences in growth behavior between the Amnesia Zkittlez and Gorilla Cookies are becoming even more pronounced. The Amnesia Zkittlez has more than doubled in height since last week, shooting up and stretching outward. Meanwhile, the Gorilla Cookies hasn’t grown as much in height, but it has become noticeably rounder and bushier, almost like a pufferfish. It's fascinating to watch these plants develop in such different ways. While the Zkittlez focuses on vertical growth, the Gorilla Cookies is spreading out horizontally, forming a dense, compact structure. All around the plant, small flower sites are emerging, extending from within the plant and beginning to take shape. This difference in growth styles really highlights the unique characteristics of each strain, and I’m excited to see how they continue to evolve. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Training: LST and Defoliation This week, I’ve also focused heavily on training the plants using Low-Stress Training (LST) and some selective defoliation to optimize light exposure and encourage better growth. I applied LST more aggressively over the past few days, using clips to gently bend the stems of individual branches outward, almost to a 90-degree angle. This technique has helped the plants spread out horizontally, allowing more light to reach the inner and lower branches. I’ve been adjusting the clips nearly every day to refine the structure and ensure that the light penetrates deeper into the canopy. The goal is to encourage outward growth and create more space for the lower branches to thrive. In addition to LST, I began selectively removing leaves. I started with the first set of fan leaves, followed by leaves growing inward toward the plant’s center. These were either shading promising bud sites or simply not contributing to the plant’s energy needs. I’ve also removed the lower bud sites, which likely wouldn’t have developed into anything substantial. This way, the plants can focus their energy on the more promising, higher-up buds that are receiving better light. Throughout the defoliation process, I’ve been careful not to remove too many leaves at once. I’ve only taken off leaves that were either blocking key bud sites or were small and shaded, ensuring that the plant still has enough foliage to continue its healthy growth. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nutrients and Watering Routine There haven't been any changes in my nutrient schedule or the way I water the plants this week. I’m still using the same BioBizz nutrients at the recommended dosages with each watering, and the watering process itself remains unchanged. Each plant receives a consistent 1 liter of water every couple of days, and so far, the plants are responding well. However, based on some recommendations I’ve received, I’m planning to introduce CalMag from BioBizz into my watering routine over the course of the next week. This will help ensure that the plants have enough calcium and magnesium, which are essential for strong cell structure and nutrient uptake, especially as we move further into the flowering phase. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Personal Reflections and Lessons Learned As I progress through this grow, I’m realizing how much more there is to learn, especially when it comes to managing light exposure and training techniques. It’s been rewarding to see how the plants respond to LST and defoliation, but I’m still figuring out the perfect balance. Every small change seems to make a big difference, and I’m constantly amazed by how quickly these plants adapt. Being a beginner, this process has been both challenging and exciting, and I can’t wait to see how the flowering stage develops. This journey has been a humbling experience, reminding me that growing plants isn’t just about following steps, but also about observing and learning from the plants themselves. Every day brings new insights and challenges, and it’s incredibly rewarding to see these changes reflected in the health and growth of the plants. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Looking Ahead In the next week, I’ll continue to monitor the pre-flowering phase closely. I expect the water and nutrient demands to increase even more as the plants transition into full flowering, so I’m preparing to increase the watering amount to 1.2 liters per plant soon. I’ll also be keeping an eye on the structure of the plants, especially the differences between the Gorilla Cookies and Amnesia Zkittlez. I may begin defoliating some of the lower leaves to give the plants more room to breathe and allow light to penetrate deeper into the canopy. There’s a lot of excitement ahead as the flowering phase approaches, and I’m eager to see how the plants respond to these new stages of growth. Stay tuned for more updates, and feel free to drop any advice or questions in the comments—this journey is all about learning together!

I have placed a recipe for my Nitrigeon Rich Tea Below, I am hoping it really supports the natural organic soil and activates the microbes to help the plants blow up! The plants are starting to develop a nice sweet smell, very fresh! 🗓️ Wednesday 09/07/22 Fed the Sugarbreath the Compost tea on Monday, they are looking great, decided to do defoliation on Tuesday, and the plants are bouncing back and looking amazing! I am going to give them the remainder of the week and decide if to top or just do some LST, the plants are stacking, the internode spacing is very tight, and would like to see how I can open this up. Stay Tuned! 📝 Saturday - 09/10/22 Thursday I topped dressed with the first-time feeding of Dr. Earth Life, watered in with dechlorinated H20, these ladies are really starting to explode! ╰⊰´🌿 ╰⊰´🌿 ╰⊰´🌿 ╰⊰´🌿 ╰⊰´🌿 ╰⊰´🌿 ╰⊰´🌿 Breeders Notes by VMAN Pink Sugar Breath is a creation of Platinum Kush Breath x Pink Sugar cookies originally Bred by UFO Genetics. Pink Sugar Breath F2 is the second filial Generation that was hunted and creates by Visions. The vigorous cultivar takes 63 to 75 days to flower with various phenotypes. These phenotypes can express terpene profiles ranging from Bakery Dough, Sugar, Og Funk, Fruity, Gas, Dank, Chemical Floor Cleaners, and much more. Expect Purple and Pink Phenotypes to pop up fairly easily. Color starts to show within 7 to 8 days of flower for the purple and pink phenotypes. Green phenotypes have more of an OG Funk/Floor Cleaner presence ╰⊰´🌿 ╰⊰´🌿 ╰⊰´🌿 ╰⊰´🌿 ╰⊰´🌿 ╰⊰´🌿 ╰⊰´🌿 Compost Tea 1 Cups Worm Casting 1 Cups Lobster Compost 1 Cups Home Made Compost 2T Molasses 2 T Alfalfa Meal (DTE) 2 T Kelp Meal (DTE) 1 T Bat Guano (DTE) 1 teaspoon Rootwise Bio Elixir I used a small paint strainer to hold my composts, placing an air stone right in the bag and zip-tie it nice and tight - this allows air bubbles to really agitate the micro matter off of the compost and into your tea I like to mix in the molasses (microbe food) and start my main air stone, the dry amendments and Rootwise can be just measured in the bubbles Keep the temp of the water warm 75F/85F - too cool and the microbes reproduce too slowly and too hot will kill them. I do not delete my teas and let the plant pots dry out slightly before feeding. I try to do this weekly - as we get further into the growth during the flowering stage I will add DTE Seagull Guano increasing the phosphorus. If any questions post up in the comments and will do my best to answer them for you

13.11.2025 Her smell is already wonderful and when defoliating her my fingers get sticky as glue! Her potency is promissing to be very strong and I'm glad for having chosen this particular genetic. As this is a limited edition, I really should give it a try to match her with the Agent Orange-Male. Maybe just on one or two branches? Let's see what else is coming up to my mind 😅. Have a weedie-week 🌸

Hello guys! Here we are with another week... At the end she was indeed flowering already, due to the stress and, I guess, some heat issues in the tent... Well, so we start seeing some very awesome, little purple flowers popping out everywhere. I'm still using LST technique to better fill up the tent, as well as defoliating some fan leaves. I also finally moved her to the 20 liters pot, and soon gonna be in the tent alone, as the other diary I have, the gigantic Glue Galato, it's almost getting to an end. I've started the flowering nuts dosages and for now all looks pretty fine, there's any sign of deficiency! I'll keep you posted with what, in my opinion, seems to be a funny diary, thanks to this incredible strain. Stay tuned and stay high!

Topped to 4th node. Started brewing ~5l of neem/kelp/aloe Trying out LST clips for the first time. Added a couple of small LST clips on the 4 largest fan leaves. One of the large lower fan leaves snapped off this morning when I was adjusting the LST clips. It looked like it had already snapped yesterday. Adjusted VPD to lower humidity
