DAY 50 f (a day late !)!: Hi all. Thankfully i am on the mend now and starting to function again so could get back to the fun that is growing. After a week of the girls going it alone with a very very light watering only . They have proven the lack of need in my help !!!. Gutting to see them not care that i was ill and just keep growing anyway ... not sure if this is a part of the disease resistant qualities or nature proving we really get in the way ?. Lol Their week has been about ripening the pistils and trichs by the look of them now. All of the strains are really showing their proven genetics off so well . Even the stunted Mexican has added a little "something ,something " this week. They are smelling so unique between the strains with the six shootwr being the most pungent with her diesel overtones. All nice and tacky to touch with a week to add even more trichs and oils. The Strawberry An exciting ending in sight now...

Week 16 - 06/28 - 07/04 Light - 200 W HPS & 265 W LED Day Temperature - 78 F Night Temperature - 68 F Humidity - 40 +/-5 D59 Flower - Came home from vacation to some fat sugar coated buds! I flushed them with FloraKleen and molasses, this should be the last one before I snip down the main colas. Since they are close to harvest, I spent about an hour defoliating so harvest will go a little quicker. D60 Flower - Took the ladies out to breathe, take some pics, and snipped the tops off the Royal Gorilla's. I'm going to allow the Hulkberry's to mature a little longer and probably do the same thing and snip the tops. D61 Flower - Unfortunately HB #3 hermies on me, she had a bunch of "bananas". So I cut her down and hung her to dry, Sucks to lose her but she will do well in some RSO! Unmanicured wet weight was 251 g. I am also going to be testing out the bowl bud trimmer I just ordered on these buds to make sure they dont damage the buds too much.

Toped her. I'm going to mainline her 03.04.2025 I toped the right branch and did a heavy defoliation to slow down grow so that the left branch can get as tall as the right 04.04.2025 I toped the right branch and bend it down

7/19/25 All good, the Amnesia is a leafy beast but she is fattening up nicely. I am having some humidity issues as I'm not able to lower it below 65%.. BUT she is taking it like a champ. I got 3 strong fans going we should be good. Blueberry Bliss is also starting to stack flower. 7/21/25 Bulk is still going strong, smelly and happy. Should defoliate some more but I just had enough for now and gonna give my hands a break. Humidity is still way too high but for now no mildew or budrot in sight. 7/23/25 Defoliated, sticky happy hands with Amnesia XXL, Blueberry Bliss is also starting to smell like a muffin fresh outta the oven. Gonna start checking trichomes every two days or so. 7/25/25 Checked trichomes on my Amnesia XXL, waaaaaays to go still but super frosty. Got some nute burn on Blueberry but not very worried about it. Gonna flush and see how she responds. All in all easy breezy week for the girls

Día 36. Estamos en 6ta semana. Los esquejes se atrasaron debido a que han sido días muy fríos y no he logrado enraizarlos. Decidí poner el extractor de aire junto con la bomba de aire, así solamente se prende 15 minutos cada hora. Así estoy logrando temperaturas mayores a 24°C en el indoor y así voy a lograr el enraizado. La planta ya tiene un tamaño que ocupa casi todo el indoor. Pero lo importante es que la voy guiando y ya estoy proyectando como va a ir cada rama. El tamaño va a exceder lo que esperaba, pero aún así creo que si logro lo que tengo en mente, voy a sacar muy buenos resultados. Igual no me voy a arriesgar demasiado, así que si contando 10 días desde ahora, no logro que los esquejes enraicen, voy a pasar la madre a floración sola. Cómo pueden ver, las ramas están bastante gruesas, y el la ramificaciones van ganando su lugar cada una. Las raíces son demasiado grandes, aunque sé que voy a poder poner la planta en el sistema de arriba igual, aunque me voy a tener que ayudar de algo para meterlas. Es importante no utilizar las manos, ya que se pueden transmitir muchos hongos. Voy a seguir actualizando e ir viendo que pasa. Pero ya estamos en los últimos días de crecimiento, haya o no esquejes. Incluso puede que ya pase la planta al indoor de arriba para darle mayor libertad de crecimiento. Esto me va a servir para tlmar en cuenta en la próxima camada que se vendrá. La idea de esto es hacer las cosas rápido, y no en gran tamaño. Pero siendo que ya estoy en el baile, no me queda otra que bailar. Día 40 Los esquejes no estaban enraizando, así que decidí cambiarlos de lugar y los puse arriba de la luz, donde les da calor y luz tenue. Espero que ahora si agarren. Y hoy fue el gran día, pasé la planta madre al módulo de arriba. Pero lo voy a dejar una semana más creciendo. De esa forma veo si los esquejes llegan a agarrar a tiempo. Y además tuve un problema en el trasplante. Primero que la planta se hizo más grande que lo esperado, y la raíz también. Cuando la pasé, hubo contacto de la raiz con prácticamente todo lo que había cerca. Sumado a que se enredó en el oxigenador, así que quedó una pidra difusora en la raíz. Dado el alto riesgo de haberla contaminado con algún hongo, le puse una solución de agua con agua oxigenada, recirculando continuamente, para lavar las raices y de paso bajar el stress de teansplante. Mañana veremos cómo arranca el día. En el aprendizaje me llevo que en la madre, es mejor hacer un corte en el primer nudo, o dejar las ramas del segundo y quitar las del primero. Y así que queden sólo dos ramas, para luego dejar a los esquejes en el medio. Eso planeo hacer con la próxima variedad. Entre tanto ahora sólo me preocupa que la raíz no se haya contaminado en el traspaso. Ya en 8 días estaré pasando a floración si no hay esquejes. Si llegan a agarrar, habrá que dar unos días de crecimiento hasta que alcancen a la madre en altura. Pero ya está todo en definición. Ahora sólo queda esperar y seguir guiando a la planta. Ya tengo ganas de poner la próxima, pero falta bastante para eso. Tengo 10 semanas de flora, así que recién en 5 semanas voy a poner la nueva madre.

🌿 Gelonade – Week 4 Veg Grower: Dogdoctor Strain: Gelonade (Zamnesia Seeds) Type: Feminized Environment: Indoor Tent | Dual Zone | Full Spectrum LED | Full Control Ecosystem ⸻ 🌱 The Plants: Branching, Glowing, Flourishing Our Gelonade girls are THRIVING. Four weeks into veg and both phenos are showing off, with no signs of transplant stress and a burst of branching energy that’s filling out beautifully. • Stems are strong, upright, and thickening nicely • Leaves are broad, vibrant, and reaching • Internodal spacing is tight — perfect for shaping later • Side branches are already declaring themselves We took both beauties out for a special photoshoot this week. The studio lighting captured their posture, color, and symmetry, and let’s just say… they’re already stars. 🌟 ⸻ 🔧 Gear Check – Ecosystem in Harmony This grow is powered by tech and intention, a custom environment designed for precision and balance. Let’s break it down. 💡 Lighting: We’re running dual light ecosystems in an expanded 8x8 grow area: • Future of Grow – Black Series 600 • Full-spectrum, ultra-efficient, deep canopy penetration • ThinkGrow Model One LED • High PPFD uniformity, smart dimming, daylight-mimicking balance Both are controlled via the TrolMaster system, allowing: • Timed schedules • Sunrise/sunset ramping • Real-time PPFD monitoring 🌞 Each light is tuned to deliver exactly what the plants need, no more, no less. ⸻ Sensors & Controllers The TrolMaster Tent-X Controller is the brain of the operation — feeding live data from sensors throughout the space: • CO₂ Sensor – Ensures levels stay in the ideal range for vigorous veg • Temp/Humidity Sensor – Live VPD adjustments and historical tracking • PPFD Sensor – Calibrates light levels and spreads evenly across canopy Everything is automated, or monitored manually as needed. This allows you to focus on plants, not guesswork. ⸻ 🌬️ Airflow & Filtration Keeping the air clean, fresh, and moving is a core part of this grow. Here’s how it flows: 🔁 Extraction: • Two 6-inch exhaust fans with carbon filters: • AeroFan 6” – Controlled by TrolMaster Tent-X • Spider Farmer 6” – Controlled by GGS Controller • Both extract stale, warm air through carbon filters, scrubbing it clean and odor-free before it leaves the tent. Intake: • 6-inch filtered intake fan constantly bringing in fresh, oxygen-rich air ❓ Why Carbon Filters? Even in veg, filters reduce: • Dust & spores • Unwanted scents • Airborne pathogens It’s not just about smell — it’s about clean air = healthy plants. 📹 A video walkthrough is now included in the diary to show this airflow system in motion, stay tuned for a narrated version soon. ⸻ 💧 Feeding This Week The girls are still on the Aptus Veg Foundation Mix, focused on: • Cellular strength • Root expansion • Balanced nutrient delivery Feed Mix (per liter): • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml: Cellular support, heat resistance, uptake enhancer • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml: Frame and photosynthesis building • Aptus All-In-One Liquid – 1 ml: Broad spectrum nutrition • Aptus Start Booster – 0.2 ml: Ongoing root + early leaf architecture support 💡 Why keep Start Booster? Even at Week 4, it helps support the rapid branching phase and assists in developing feeder roots that stretch out horizontally. ⸻ 🌼 Looking Ahead Next week, we’ll begin shifting the feed to support the pre-flower transition. It’s not flower time yet, but the plants will begin “asking” for more energy and structural support soon. No rush, just flow. Expect: • More branching • Thicker stems • Early pre-flower signs (depending on light cycle) We’ll be watching closely, letting the girls tell us when it’s time. ⸻ 🌞 It’s Summer – and So Is the Grow The seasonal energy is flowing right into the tent. Life is pulsing. Roots are diving. Leaves are dancing in the air current. From animals outside to chlorophyll inside, everything is alive right now, and the Gelonade girls are right in rhythm. This is the joy of veg: potential made visible. ⸻ 💬 Final Thoughts This grow isn’t just about growing cannabis, it’s about building systems, creating harmony, and telling the story of life through plants. The Gelonade run is a flagship grow: Precision gear, intentional care, vibrant phenos. And above all, love in every step. We’re not just growing plants. We’re growing a garden of learning, beauty, and experience.

Week 8 Veg – Go Big or Go Home! 🌱💪 Hey, Grow Fam! 🌿 What an intense week it’s been in the grow room! This was one of those “go big or go home” moments, and I decided to take it to the extreme. I’m holding off on flipping to flower for just one more week because the plants are filling up the space beautifully—I can’t help but push things to their limits and see just how much these ladies can give! 😎✨ This week was all about maximizing growth and creating the best canopy I can. I did a light defoliation, just here and there to open things up a bit, and then came the bending—LOTS of bending. 🌱 I’m working hard to create an even canopy, though with all these different genetics, we’ll see how close I get! 🤞 Regardless, I’m giving it my all, and I’m super pumped to see how everything will respond in the next stage. The final touch this week? I ended it with a bold 36 hours of darkness to prepare for the big flip next week—flower mode, here we come! 🌸 What Went Down This Week: 1. Canopy Work – Bending and training all over the place to try and keep things even. It’s a real challenge with different genetics, but the payoff is going to be worth it! 2. Defoliation – Just a little bit of leaf removal here and there to help with airflow and light penetration, prepping them for that final veg stretch. 3. 36 Hours of Darkness – Closed out the week with a full day and a half of darkness. The 36 hours of darkness is a technique I like to use to help signal to the plants that it’s time to transition from veg to flower. 🌒 By giving them an extended dark period, I’m mimicking the natural shift from summer to fall, when daylight hours start to shorten. This kick-starts the plants’ flowering hormones (phytochrome), helping them shift into flower mode more smoothly and quickly. In my experience, this method helps speed up the flip, reduces early flowering stress, and often leads to a more uniform bloom across the canopy. It’s like giving the plants a little nudge to let them know, “Hey, it’s time to bloom!” 🌸 This technique is especially useful for growers like me who want to maximize the efficiency and performance of their plants. 😊 4. TrolMaster + App Love – As always, the TrolMaster app continues to blow me away. We’re going to dive deep into it below, but trust me, this app makes managing everything a breeze! 👇 Next week, we’re flipping to flower! I’m beyond excited for what’s to come, and I can already tell these plants are ready to explode with growth in flower mode. Stay tuned, because we’re about to see some serious action in the grow room! 🌸🔥 Thank you all for the continued support! 🙏 Don’t forget to check out my social media accounts for real-time updates, behind-the-scenes magic, and all the details on how this journey unfolds.

Hope everyone is having a great weekend. It was a good week for the ladies, all the toppings are complete, and now I am just focusing on some LST to try and keep all 8 tops level on all the ladies. Today is day 42 and I just removed the milk crates that all of the ladies were sitting on to give them more vertical space. I am still feeding GH nutrients, silica, cal mag, and maxi grow. I will transition to flower nutrients approximately one week after flipping to flower. I have found that it is important to continue feeding plenty of Nitrogen through the stretch. The only way I would transition sooner is if I was running out of vertical space. Still very happy with the Spectrum X from Medic Grow. I am running her at 69% and the plants seem very happy and healthy. The heat and humidity are finally letting up in my region so it is nice to be able to open some windows and drop the temp outside the grow tent. I hope everyone has a great weekend, Thanks for stopping by, Stay Safe and Blaze On!!! 💪 Website: https://medicgrow.com/ https://growdiaries.com/grower/medicgrowled

Flipped these girls to flower on day 26. Most of them have been looking good and growing pretty fast. I topped off the reservoir and added a little maxibloom. All 8 plants are drinking a total of about 2 gallons of water per day now. I kinda slacked on training them this week, but I will try to get them spread out some over the next week. I have been pulling a few fan leaves from the bottom so they can get good air circulation.

Buenas tardes familia, actualizamos la semana de las northern light xL, e de decir que es la más lenta del proyecto, aún así se ven como se forman unas buenas flores, por lo general compactas, iremos viendo por que todavía las va quedando. PH Muy controlado , a estas alturas por encima del 6,2. Ya les quitamos productos y pronto lavaremos raíces.

Starting week 5 by flipping to 12/12 (9th June) - Hairs popped on the 11th Removing my nitrogen nutes and replacing them with pk13/14 which I will continue until week 6/7 of flower. Im hesitant to defoliate too hard right now but will do so gently over the next week. Everything else is just perfect - super healthy, with the occasional nibble from bugs, one of the minor issues with outdoor growing. However, the ladybird eggs have hatched today and they should make their way up the pot(with the help of a little trail of molasses) and go into battle for me. Update 14th - Still looking great, my battalion of ladybird larvae chilled out by their eggs for a couple of days but they were gone this morning and i spotted them patrolling the plant so that's a nice little bonus. Bit more defoliation on the 13th and just continuing to bend and twist the thinner stalks to hardy them up ready to carry the heavy nugs. Been hot in the courtyard the last couple of days, giving her an extra litre of water in the evenings. Watering will be every day from now on, 2-3 litres depending on the temperature.

Well, this week has been iffy! I have to make a correction...the lights I used before were my headlights, documented in my previous grow. It seems the green lights kept my plants in veg. I have since removed them and continued forward as scheduled. We'll see what happens from here. If they correct, I'll have a mess on my hands and a lesson learned, lol. Happy Growing Everyone ✌️❤️😁🍀🎶👽 EB

So far I harvest the top half of the plant and its 71 grams dry and the next part i harvest is 53 grams wet, @exotic_seeds and their Black Haze is growing great in the apotforpot super soil!!! Its been a super easy grow so for and it all has to do with the genetics and soil, the buds are deep purple and covered in trichs and orange hairs, the smell went down a lot in drying but should come back with the cure. I know some of the pics look out of focus but i purposely picked them if you look you can see why.
