The purple punch cookies is looking happy. Will be switching them to flower in a week or less. I gave them a flush and fresh nutrients. The humic acid really makes a huge difference in the uptake of nutrients. I am at about half dose on nutrients compared to what I would have to feed without it. Winter is approaching and bringing the low humidity with it. All of the humidifiers I have tried either dont work or I have to constantly refill the tank. So I decided to use my redneck engineering skills to throw this humidifier together. It holds 4 gallons of water and she pumps like a freight train. I have dubbed her the Steam Queen. I got 2 cool mist foggers that put out about 400ml per hour each and used some things I had around to make them a little float. Added an old computer fan to force the mist out through a 2 inch pipe. She won't win any beauty contests but she pumps out plenty of cool moist air. I also upgraded my exhaust to a variable speed for more added environmental control. Just going to do a little more training over the next week then try to make some buds.

Week 12, Day 83 from seed and 3rd day of flower.....The 5 day of this week officially marked the start of the flowering season!! So I flushed both of these bad boys with ph'd water for two days and then today I switched them to 12/12. I gave them their first dose of bloom nutrients and then lollipoped them as you can see, pixs . Grateful no issues to report for the past 3 weeks have been trouble-free!! I'm going to leave the MH bulb in for an additional 2 weeks to prevent any stretching before switching to the HPS. But so far they are still loving their environment. I'm also in the process of keeping clones of fat banana and hulkberry while i try this new strain of Peanut Butter Tree.

Came back from vacay to a healthy girl!!! The once warm dumpster smell is now replaced by a LOUD aroma full of piney sweet candy musky notes - classic gelonade to me Fan leaves are turning purple but more importantly calyxes are swelling AND best yet, crazy trichome density and abundance. So many flower sites, some fan leaves beginning to wilt. ALSO - this is the first time I’ve had a branch sag on its own weight!!! Minor health concern - speculating here, possibly nutrient deficiency? Im seeing some minor yellowing on top leaves, only on the side tips curiously Might make sense given the pot size. Trying to fix that with amendments and nutes, damn small pots Regardless, can tell this will be a good one as I continue to dial it in - fiiiiireeee incoming!!!!

All plants are doing ok so far. Gave all foliar sprays of BT as there is pest pressure elsewhere in the garden. Supported the tall ones for for a windy day with 20-30mph gusts, they took the wind like champs. Wedding cheesecake the oldest and is starting to give a hint of sweet funk sometimes. Update: While checking plants today, Wedding Cheesecake had a brownish bud (bottom branch). I snip it off, no other affected sites. I will be checking diligently now, as weather has been very hot and humid.

Welcome to my Umme diary Almost finished... Letting it grow a bit longer... Growing with MarsHydro sp3000 Umme Brownie Scout x Blackberry Moonrocks®️ Genetics: mostly Indica Yield: 550g/m² • up to 700g per plant flowering time: 8-9 weeks THC: up to 30% Aroma: blueberries, sweet UMME, feminized seeds Our Umme is a unique personality, she is incredibly strong, full of life, shows an extraordinary interest in cannabis and delicious flavors and is probably one of the friendliest beings on our planet. Umme is a Vietnamese Pot-Bellied Pig lady and she inspired us to name our new THC-rich strain after her. Both she and our new cannabis strain are real heavyweights with an irrepressible energy. For UMME we have crossed a particularly aromatic Blackberry Moonrocks and a Brownie Scout selected for potency. We have thus created a unique genetic basis for an outstanding new and extremely potent strain that will certainly be found in numerous varieties over the next few years. And how could it be otherwise, Umme has become a real queen and a bud machine at the same time, producing excessive amounts of resin, buds and intense effects. The large, dense, resin-drowned flowers often get a beautiful purple color. The buds can reach a massive THC content of up to 30% and are therefore far too strong for many beginners. In addition to the extremely thick layer of white trichomes, it produces a fascinating aroma that is addictive. This is reminiscent of blueberry cake and has notes of cinnamon and vanilla. The high is overwhelmingly powerful. It gives you a feeling of deep joy, euphoria and pervasive relaxation like you’ve never experienced before. Mind and body are wrapped in a fluffy cloud and it becomes impossible to get up from the couch. The cerebral effects expand the senses and create an impressive feeling of bliss. Stress and worry are shot into another galaxy as space and time reach a new dimension. The effect and the diverse terpene profile make Umme an unforgettable experience. Those who make clear concentrates or distillates will love the strain because it naturally produces such a highly concentrated amount of THC. Growing UMME The indica dominant strain has a flowering time of 8-9 weeks and produces high yields of 500-550 g / m² with no problems under good conditions. Outdoors, the strain reaches a height of 200-250 cm while indoors it grows to around 115-130 cm. The plants from the seeds develop quickly and are amazingly vigorous and hardy. No grow is really complete without the hassle that it upsets everything that has existed. Medical Use The strong physical calming effect helps to relieve pain, stress and muscle tension. It ensures a deep sleep and helps to calm down after a stressful day.

week intel: every thing is amazing girls are ripening , we can now cause more e.c stress than before because: 1-plants are very mature now and can handle stress 2- at this week its the only stress that is helpful for increasing plant resins stresses : E.C stress around 1.6 and 1.7 3 times a week feeding: i replaced B-52 with Bloom Base Nutrient i feed them 3 times this week with this order : day 1 : i feed them high with base nutrients(calcium & micros (half dose) + Bloom) about 850 ppm - 1.7 e.c to cause a little stress. day 3 : i feed them high dose of Top-Max + Bloom Base Nutrient around 877 ppm - 1.7 e.c to cause stress . day 5 : i feed them high dose of Feeding Booster around 850 ppm - 1.7 e.c to cause e.c stress again guide of the week : last weeks are time of ripening , and the only helpful stress is e.c stress at this moment

Blue Cheese F1 automatic Week 5 2/2-2-8 The Cheese gals are in full flower and are stretching like crazy. At the beginning of the week, they were 7 inches tall, Wed 10 and today 2/7 they are 14 & 15 inches tall. They have doubled in height. I’ve moved the pins out to the edge of the pot. For future training, I must add some wires thru the pot holes to keep the branches lower as the outer rim is taller than the center. I reduced nutrients in the feed solution since Runtz and Pink Rozay are showing some purples/blues in the leaves. These gals are vigorous and don’t seem to mind the full strength feedings. Hopefully they won’t start showing deficiencies. I added Green Sensation this week then read the instructions said add in 4th week flower. Blue Cheese is supposed to be a 10 week flower from seed to harvest. If I wait till the 4th week, it will only be used for 2 maybe 3 weeks. Would that actually benefit the plant. So I think I will add some each time but a 25% strength. Calls for 4ml/g I will use 1ml. They are autos and I should be lowering the nutes anyway. Pinned more branches. I add 2 gallons of water to the T700 humidifier daily to keep the VPD in line. 2/5 4 gal fed 2 liter each nutrients added at ½ of recommended amount. Making 4 gallons since I have 2 pots of carrots and Dill in the back. Bloom Juice 60ml Plant Juice 60 ml Royal Rush 15 ml power bud 15ml green sensation 7.5ml Recharge 2.5ml/gal 7.5 ml Ppm 333 Ph 7.02 Temp 66 2/7 3 ltr each Bloom Juice 60ml Plant Juice 60 ml Royal Rush 15 ml Power bud 15ml Green sensation not added Ppm 298 Ph 6.5 Temp 65 Your likes and comments are appreciated. Thanks for stopping by. Growers love 💚🌿 💫Natrona💫

A it late with the update as I broke my phone,. To say it was my 1st harvest was very pleased with the outcome, 38grams dry of mostly tight nugs, trichomes on the main colas were turning Amber so cut those down couple of days earlier and left lower nugs to develop a bit more. Cured for 2 weeks now and buds smelling and smoking great, smooth taste and full of flavour! Next crop been planted very soon.

Borked the time tracking on the previous diary weeks, both are still going strong. Grapefruit is developing a lot of new internode fan leaves, but she's too late into bloom now to defoliate etc. and don't want to stress the GG XL either. Latest GG XL photos are in Week 5. Microgreens are also coming up fast. 17/07: Forgot to take Day 42 photos for both girls, my apologies as my wrists have been giving me hell but will get some more up soon. I've been keeping with the same watering schedule, some bud sites are being shaded by fan leaves so I'm trying to VERY carefully bend them down to prop up the little bud sites better. I've rubbed my fingers on some of the fan leaves to get rid of whatever weird white dust is ending up on my leaves, probably just debris from the air and the fan might need a cleaning soon but holy shit my fingers smell strong like Pomegranate and fruits. It's getting quite addictive to smell the bud sites and rub that resin of her fan leaves, I wish I could describe it better but damn it smells good. If the resin is any indication of the final smoke I know that the Grapefruit is gonna be dank. Can't wait till drying + harvest time :)) 18/07: Plucked off some lower burnt leaves that were really old, snipped off two more big fan leaves shading new bud sites and removed the stumps from old leaves rather making those closely cut down stubs instead so no bug invaders can get a free home. :P Humidity has been ridiculously high today >~65% and dropping now in the evening after the rain has stopped to <~60%, I added some Sodium Bicarbonate in plastic jars around the tent to help pull out water from the air. (18/07: Seems to be helping, I'm seeing about a ~2-5% drop overnight and this morning, usually the humidity in the morning before+after rain is ~60-65%) 20/07: The paper ref regarding RH and Bicarb. of Soda: W.-Y. Kuu et al. / International Journal of Pharmaceutics 166 (1998) 167–175 / PII: S0378-5173(98)00049-0 - I don't know how or why but keeping temps at ~21-23C drops the RH down to a stable mid-low 50's range. Thank fuck now I don't have to drop tonnes of money on a huge dehumidifier... Occam's razor baby :) 21/07: Had to move the light, fan, carbon filter and literally everything. Some minor shit for the cover broke on top of the CaCl -RH% and the bicarb got knocked over. Wiped, sprayed down and cleaned out the fan filter as well. What a fucking start to the day... 31/07: GG XL is in Week 7 now, so getting well into flower, growing at an exponential rate and starting to give off a very subtle smell, Grapefruit smells quite noticeable now too. 03/08: GG XL ending week 7, getting massive. ~77-78CM now. Had to defoliate the Grapefruit since leaf miners were still assaulting her, hopefully this helps get more light and airflow into the bud sites, been having humidity issues but can't do much.

The ladies have grown really tall. All the plants are still in the stretch and are doing really well. I have added another layer of compost and a layer of grass clippings for mulch. I will sort them out with some fresh food this weekend as the first leaves are starting to turn a bit yellow. Bud development is good and the ladies are dealing with the colder temperatures well. The weather is supposed to get warmer again. I think they will get another boost soon and will enjoy a fresh feeding. Happy growing.

Das wird wohl die letzte Woche, ich schaue mal wann ich ernte. Ich denke ich werde ab jetzt auch nicht mehr gießen damit die Erde etwas trocknet und die Pflanze etwas stressed. Ich werde auch 1-2 Tage vorher das Licht aus lassen. Aktuelle Werte: VPD: 1.6 Humidity: 54% Temp: 31°C DLI: 50 1055 PAR

🌱 Animal Mints — Week 6 From Seed (≈ Week 2 Flower / Pre-Flower Phase) Quick Recap for New Readers This run includes multiple Animal Mints plants, all treated similarly, but we’re mainly cataloging two reference plants to clearly show how timing affects structure and development: • Plant A → 12/12 from seed • Plant B → ~15 days under 16/8 veg, then flipped to flower Same genetics, same room, same feeding — different timelines. That’s the whole experiment. ⸻ Plant A vs Plant B — Why Two Plants? • Plant A (12/12 from seed) • More compact • Slower early structure • Responds very well to gentle leaf bending and light training • Still stretching and stacking nicely • Plant B (short veg period) • Bigger frame • More developed branching • Further along in flower at the same “seed age” • Took light cleanup / lollipopping better This small veg window made a huge difference in structure and flower progression, and that’s exactly why we’re documenting both. ⸻ ✂️ Canopy Work (No Heavy Defoliation) This week we did selective leaf removal, not a true defoliation: • Opened airflow and light paths • Removed shaded or blocking leaves • Light lollipopping on Plant B only • Plant A kept mostly intact, just leaf bending and spacing Goal wasn’t stress — it was space, airflow, and efficiency. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment Update • Day Temp: ~28°C (successfully raised) • Humidity: ~65% • PPFD: ~600–850 (depending on height & position) • CO₂: ~900 ppm (now stabilizing around 909 ppm) As outside temps stayed cooler, the room naturally became its own heat source: • Increased plant mass • Higher light intensity • Under-canopy lighting added No forced heaters. No extremes. Just letting the system balance itself. 🌬️ Airflow • Vortex extraction • Multiple cross-flow fans • Constant gentle movement No leaf chaos — just steady motion. ⸻ 💧 Feeding & Nutrition Strategy This week marks a clear transition phase. • EC: ~2.4 • pH: 6.5 (transitioning down — all feeds now 6.0+) Why Higher pH Right Now? As plants move into flower, nutrient demand shifts: • Better Ca / Mg uptake • Stronger phosphorus & potassium availability • Root activity increases Slightly higher pH at this stage supports structural growth and flower formation, especially under higher light and CO₂. Nutrient Transition • Terra Grow → Flowering nutrients • Supporting the hormonal shift from stretch → stack • Small signs of possible cal-mag demand observed — already being addressed, nothing severe ⸻ 🌿 Growth Observations • Both plants look healthy and vigorous • Plant B is clearly ahead in flower development • Plant A continues to stretch and respond beautifully to training • Leaf color overall is excellent • Bud sites stacking cleanly At this point: • All plants are in pre-flower / early flower • We’re counting this as Week 2 flower in the life cycle ⸻ 📸 Studio Session Plants were brought into the studio to: • document structure clearly • show node spacing and canopy differences • create a clean visual timeline Photos reflect real structure, not “posed perfection”. ⸻ ❤️ Final Words Big thanks to: • the geneticists • the sponsors • the platform • the OGs • the newcomers • the critics • the lovers • even the haters Everyone has a place here. We share wins, mistakes, and lessons openly so we can all grow better together. Criticism is welcome — it’s how progress happens.

Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.
