Placing a dehumidifier or humidifier in the grow box turned out to be ineffective when both devices have their own automated settings. For instance, a humidifier set to 55% humidity works within a ±5% range, meaning it waits until the humidity drops below 50% to turn on and runs until it hits 60%. Since its sensor refreshes every 30 seconds, it might show 54% one moment and jump to 61% the next—not exactly stable at 55%. The dehumidifier behaves similarly. To achieve more consistent results, it’s better to rely on a hygrometer inside the grow box and use “dumb” devices that simply turn on when powered. Connecting these devices to smart outlets provides more precise control. For manual control, I maintained around 55% humidity by turning the humidifier and exhaust fan on and off via phone. Most moisture and aroma are released during the first three days, then taper off. The common rule of “when thin branches snap, it’s dry” led me to overdry my buds. A more reliable method is to monitor the hygrometer. When humidity stabilizes after the initial rise, wait one more day and then jar the buds. Rehydrating Overdried Buds: Overdried buds can be revived with a small piece of mandarin (or orange) peel, about 2.5x2.5 cm. Thoroughly wash the peel (even sanitize it if needed), cut a square, and place it on top of the buds in the jar. In my experience, this brought the humidity from 46% to 62% within 4 hours. Afterward, burp the jars for 15 minutes and monitor the hygrometer. If the humidity drops below 55%, return the peel for a few more hours. Once stable at 60-62%, remove the peel and continue curing, burping the jars twice daily for 15 minutes. As for humidity packs like Integra Boost or Boveda, I used them because I had some lying around. These packs are designed for 12 grams of product, so they don’t make a big difference in larger jars. If you burp jars daily and gently rotate the buds, they’re not really necessary. Trimming and Results: After 7 days of drying, I decided to trim dry this time. It turned out to be somewhat more convenient—everything gets covered in resin anyway, but the remaining leaves easily fall off, speeding up the process. I went for a tight trim, removing as much as possible. During the process, I felt disappointed seeing how little remained on the branches. The buds turned out airy and small, and I started cursing American genetics halfway through the trim. However, when it came to weighing, the results were surprisingly decent. Considering the buds' poor appearance, they’re not going to impress anyone visually, so it might have been easier to shred everything and use it for extraction. I don’t have extraction equipment, so I’ll make cannabutter from the trim, and the buds can rest in jars for now. Takeaways: Use a proper hygrometer for humidity control, not built-in sensors on humidifiers or dehumidifiers. Overdried buds can be easily rehydrated with citrus peel. Daily burping and rotation are sufficient for curing without humidity packs. Dry trimming can be faster and more convenient but may highlight issues with bud density. Despite underwhelming appearance, high resin content makes the strain great for extraction.

Targona: 57 days since my little girl sprouted from seeds🌱 Eighth week of growing my Apple Fritter Automatic 🍎🍏🍎 Nutrients: As I mentioned last time, I switched to mostly organic nutrients from Plagron and Biobizz💓 - Plagron Alga Bloom - is a complete fertilizer designed exclusively for the flowering phase. It contains all the important substances that the plant easily absorbs 🌸🌾 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Plagron Sugar Royal - Sugar Royal is a supporting enzymatic fertilizer designed exclusively for the flowering phase. It contains hormones, enzymes, vitamins and trace elements necessary for proper flower development🍭🍭🍭 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Plagron Green Sensation - Green Sensation is a professional flower stimulator and activator. It contains all the necessary ingredients to support flowering and also the formation of sugars, and thus the overall yield 🌊🌿 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- JUNGLE X Environ is a highly effective complex preparation for stimulating flower formation. 🌸🏵️ ---------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------- BioBizz Bio pH - is an organic pH regulator. An aqueous solution of citric acid, which is naturally found in citrus fruits 🍋🍋 - I didn't use it this time, because the pH of the dressing was 6.5 + ---------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------- BioBizz Calmag - 100% vegan and certified product Calmag is made from calcium carbonate and magnesium sulfate, supplemented with humic acid. Unlike other products, the all-natural Biobizz CalMag does not contain any nitric acid and therefore does not affect the NPK values ​​or EC of the solution 💩💩 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Terra Aquatica pH test kit - Very reliable, easy to use and inexpensive. The pH Test Kit conveniently replaces expensive pH meters. It includes a wide range from 4.0 to 8.5. 🌈 General: Apple Fritter Automatic 🍎🍏🍎 - The plant is getting more and more beautiful, its buds are getting thicker, they are really all white, as if they are covered in sticky resin. The stem, leaves and buds have turned a little pink. I wondered if it was a lack of phosphorus, but based on the nutrients I give them and the overall pH, which is 6.5, I assume that this is the classic coloration of the plant during maturation. 🌱🏵️💚Nevertheless, I preferred to add Calmag to the watering yesterday and also feed it with Alga Bloom in case it lacks important elements. Training: The plant is very tall. Sometimes I turn it all over so that the light also shines on the side branches on the side of the tent. Otherwise, I don't do any training, I just cut off some excess leaves in the classic way. Plus, this girl doesn't have many leaves, she's a beautiful genetics as usual with strains by Zamnesia 💚🌞🌞 Light: Mars Hydro TS1000 The plants respond effectively and the light is technically very well managed - I try to have 18 cm between the light and the plants, so I move it up regularly 💡💡💡 Thanks for the likes :) See you soon 😍😍

This two were part of another diary and got moved out due to space reasons at VW8 and moved back indoors at VW20 https://growdiaries.com/diaries/218151-auto-god-s-glue-grow-journal-by-yan402 13.09.25 VW21 Both are looking good and are developing tighter nodes than when they were outside, I'm going to have to keep cutting them back every once and a while I also applied nematodes against thrips and fungus gnats. 20.09.25 VW22 some spots and some yellow leafs, I think it's a root problem, probably root bound, but both seem healthy and are getting thicker so maybe just top up with Coco coir and give a slight different nutrient schedule less Tri Part Bloom could do the trick MAYBE lol. 27.09.25 VW23 Topped up the pots with extra coco coir and trimmed the side roots a bit, both plants were root bound 📹 03.10.25 VW23 did a HST/LST session 📹 12.10.25 VW25 Done a major HST session to try and keep them in line with the Sunset Sherbet GF I have going in the same tent, rest in the video 📹 17.10.25 VW25 ffj/fpj/fish 30 → 60 ml 19.10.25 VW26 it just became a one plant diary, keeping #5, #6 gets it's own diary for testing nutrients. 20.10.25 VW26(?)

Day 14, Two of the Orange Sherbets are a little behind & the one I’m trying to pull back from nutrient burn.. So far the White Widow Autos by Seedsman have been doing the best! Day 17 two of the Orange sherbet are a little behind the rest of the plants but overall I would say everything is going good! Seems like the orange sherbet that had the nutrient burn is starting to bounce back! Day 19 They are all really starting to take off! Probably gonna do some LST tonight or tomorrow!

Week 2 Veg Update on Epic Buzz by Anesia Seeds As we enter the second week of vegetation, our Epic Buzz seedlings are embracing their new home with vigor.: One of the seedlings has been carefully moved to the 20-liter reservoir. It has adapted well to its new environment, showcasing an impressive array of roots throughout the net pot, indicating healthy and robust development. Both plants are progressing as expected, with no significant issues to report. The steady growth and absence of complications suggest that the conditions in my indoor setup are well-tuned to the needs of Epic Buzz. The images captured this week show that the roots are not only healthy but thriving. They have begun to colonize the net pot, which is a strong indicator of the plant's potential for nutrient uptake and overall growth. With the transplant successful and the roots establishing themselves, I'm keen to see how the increased space and resources will accelerate growth. I expect that the coming week will bring even more visible progress as the plants continue to mature. Watching the Epic Buzz seedlings transition smoothly into the vegetative phase is both rewarding and exhilarating. The absence of any noteworthy problems speaks volumes. I'm looking forward to observing their journey and sharing their growth milestones with the community. Stay tuned for next week's entry, where I hope to report on the continued prosperity and vigor of Epic Buzz in its critical vegetative stage.

Biobizz květy se od posledního týdne o něco zvětšili a vypadá to ze ještě trochu porostou. Zvětšil se i objem pryskyřice. Vůně ale není moc výrazná. Florganics nevykazuje nějaký pokrok ani po přidání dodatečných živin. Rozdíl můžete vidět na fotografiích.

July 13: first heat wave of the year was last week, and there is another forecast for next week, but for now this is pretty ideal cannabis weather. Added a third Scrog layer and tied it off to some weights (partly filled water bottles) to open up the canopy further. Works, simple, and easy to move around the yard as needed. I really like this plant and how it’s going so far. July 14: re-scrogged again to widen the canopy further. Supercropped the ends to maintain the same elevation at the various growth tips. Four stems in middle were topped to keep them from getting ahead of the others. Experimenting to see how it goes. July 16: hot again. Increased water volume and sometimes misting air with garden hose water for the evaporative cooling. She looks great. July 17: another 32 C day. Watered four times today so likely 7-8 L in the heat with the growing plant. July 18: hot again. Mixed Power Bloom and malted Barley with some soil and added as a top dressing.Hit 34 C and 20% relative humidity which is far too hot and dry for cannabis. Lots of watering, and misting of leaves and air to provide some moisture and cooler temperatures.

Bonne reprise depuis la semaines dernière, du fait que j’ai tailler les feuilles, les secondaires se sont plus développés, il forme une belle canope actuellement Là floraison devrait pas tardé à arriver, on est actuellement à 14h d’ensoleillement quotidien , plus qu’à attendre que le sexe se déclare Pas de problème à déclarer, elle semble en très bonne santé, belle couleur de feuille, pas de tache, structure solide Elle commence à avoir une bonne odeur, j’aime beaucoup le parfum qu’elle dégage. En plus comme j’ai de la menthe marocaine dans le pots si dessous, ça se mélange très bien les deux ensemble. J’ai hâtes de pouvoirs faire un thé mauve mutant marocain avec ses deux beau bébé qui poussent

She's 4 feet tall!!! Wow! I'm a little concerned about light burn, but don't notice any signs of light burn yet. And she will be going outdoors soon. But I'm very impressed with this girl so far! 👍

Things are moving along nicely.i introduced my central air into my tent this week so it's keeping at 50r.h. and around 80 degrees with co2.these girls drink alot I split one gallon every day and they are drinking it all.lol.they aren't bone dry but when I lift them up to check they are pretty light.
