During week 9 the flowering continued nicely and all plants developed nice flower crowns. Unfortunately I spotted some brown pistils on some plants and at this stage that only can mean they have been inseminated by pollen. Since I have no male plants around I thoroughly inspect the nodes of all plants from bottom to top. I am searching for hidden male pollen-sacks that have grown on my female plants and sure enough I find several ripe and open pollen sacks on three plants. This means those plants ARE HERMAPHRODITES, plants that have BOTH SEXES, they are female plants that also grow male pollensacks...my ABSOLUTE HORROR! The open pollen sacks have released pollen onto the female pistils around them and this turned the pistils brown. Where those fertilized pistils are, seeds will now start to grow inside the buds of my grow. 😢 After spraying water over the plants, in order to neutralize the free pollen inside, I carefully cut off the hermie-plants on the main stem right above the soil and immediately discard them far away from my grow-tent into the trash. Since I spotted the hermies early, I hope my grow will not be fully seeded, but only have a few seeds grow in some buds here and there. My fingers are crossed! My 'CHEESE'-plant from BIG BUDDHA SEEDS has turned a little yellow and developed some dark spots on the leaves, which I attribute to the plant standing alone in a tray now. She seems to be overfed a little and getting too much water to the roots. I therefore take her out of the water for a few days, in order to let the medium dry out a little and let the roots get some air. The SANlight EVO4-120 LED-lights work like a treat. They are now running at 100% dimm-level and are hung 30 cm above the top of the plants. The BIO NOVA nutrients are still given at half strength of the recommended dose and some plants seem to be overfed...I have to keep an eye on them.

Allora , questa settimana diciamo che la ragazza è cresciuta in modo esponenziale! Nonostante il vaso di dimensione ridotta , sta sfruttando totalmente la sua genetica XL ,quindi dovrò fare attenzione alla l'altezza anche se penso di essere al sicuro dato che il vaso è piccolo, per il r sto sembra davvero in salute! Conto di avere una grande cima apicale che di sicuro sarà di ottima qualità! Si continua a fare resistenza e resilienza ragazzi! Buon 420 a tutti!

After transplanting them into larger fabric pots (2x 7.5L), they were sad for 2-3 days, but this will improve next week. Until this week, I hadn't used a pH meter or organic nutrients, just tap water every 1-2 days."

Day 50/51 form sprouting Bloom W4 D23/24 Defoliation on all girls. Removed all nodes and side branching. Leave only main branching from main stem. Depending on plant from 10-14 branches in total is left on girls. About 60-65cm off usable canopy left on plants. Total 1.78m3 off canopy density. Cut lots of buds with longer nodes, leaving only buds with short node from main branch (bottom) Lott's off leaves removed also, good light penetration now, on lowest bud we have around 250/350ppfd Installing another trellis net over girls More frequent watering from this week till end off week 7 More power to light also, from 900-1250ppfd at canopy levels. Food strength stay the same, lowering humidity a bit will trigger plants to consume more food. Lowering day and night temperature for 1c, max temp is 26.5c in day time, in dark period it drop to 19c. Start getting little humidity spike @ 65%RH right when lights go out. Light intensity @ 950-1250 ppfd , Light distance - 50-60cm, DLI - 50/55, Light Interval 12/12 Day RH - 50/55%, Night RH - 45/50%, Day Temperature - 24c/26c, Night Temperature - 19/21c, Leaf temperature 24/25c, CO2 1000/1350ppm, VPD 1.2 15s ON time, 15min OFF time @ Day misting 15s ON time, 20min OFF time @ Night misting NT-Nutrient Tank PH - 5.99/6.20, EC -2.0/1.93, Water Temperature - 19/21 Day 52/54 form sprouting Bloom W4 D25/27 Watching girls, flower progress. Nothing to do, flight control this week. Keeping things as they are... This days need to do branch/TOPs management, to center every top in similar distance from other. Light intensity @ 950-1250 ppfd , Light distance - 50-60cm, DLI - 50/55, Light Interval 12/12 Day RH - 50/55%, Night RH - 45/50%, Day Temperature - 24c/26c, Night Temperature - 19/21c, Leaf temperature 24/25c, CO2 1000/1350ppm, VPD 1.2/1.3 15s ON time, 150min OFF time @ Day misting 15s ON time, 20min OFF time @ Night misting NT-Nutrient Tank PH - 5.99/6.20, EC -2.0/1.93, Water Temperature - 19/21 Day 55 form sprouting Bloom W4 D28 Last days off week 4, girls stack buds nicely, frost is already on sight. Under canopy looking brutal at this time. Hope it will not bush too much in next two weeks before another defoliation in week 7. Girls stop growing vertically, only buds development😍 Light intensity @ 950-1250 ppfd , Light distance - 50-60cm, DLI - 50/55, Light Interval 12/12 Day RH - 49/55%, Night RH - 45/50%, Day Temperature - 24c/26c, Night Temperature - 19/21c, Leaf temperature 24/25c, CO2 1000/1350ppm, VPD 1.2/1.3 15s ON time, 20min OFF time @ Day misting 15s ON time, 25min OFF time @ Night misting NT-Nutrient Tank PH - 5.99/6.20, EC -2.0/2.05, Water Temperature - 19/21

UPDATE: 1-29-18 The GSC are definitely AUTOS. Just added a new fan. Bought a Spectrum King 140W and just moved it in as it's going to be my main FLOWER light.

I have started flushing with pH-adjusted Flawless Finish solution, expecting to harvest somewhere around the end of this week, although I will continue monitoring pistils and trichs. Upd: Added back 50% base nutrients and some flowering additives after researching some of the first responses to my flushing question. I learn every day. Even that which was scientifically proven true one day, might be even more scientifically proven absolutely false some time later (not related to flushing specifically). Thank you kings! Upd 2: Okay okay I cooked her with some cosmic rays or whatever those Chinese quantum bars emit — purple rays, I'll call it — that's on me. Turned them 30% down to see what's up. Light burn was not on my mind, because otherwise the leaves were not really curving that much, considering that this is 3 weeks overdue wrt advertised. Sorry about that, did not pay enough attention.

She's getting on well nice bud production a bit behind the zombie but has been from start nodes a stacking well she seems more bushy than the zombie not quite at the net yet will raise her on something if she doesn't make it removed a few leaves every now and then keep a nice air flow and light penetration she's stinking up the place really nice sweet smell looking forward to tasting her lol thanks for reading happy growing guys

All doing perfect not alot to say, defoliated on 18/1/21 and tied a few branches where I could to make a little more room. Maybe 3weeks then ripen +flush Daily updates

09-09-2025 I noticed mildew on the carrots🥕in the greenhouse and decided to move Royal CBG to the garage. I don’t want her to get infected. In the process of moving her, I decided to check her thoroughly for bugs and found grey mould (botrytis). I feel really dissapointed again. I cut off the buds with grey mould, disinfected everything with hydrogenperoxide 3% and moved the plant to the garage. The exact bud where I found the caterpillar 🐛 last week was infected with the mould. 🤬🐛 11-09-2025 I had to cut off three buds because of the mould. Hopefully I will have something left to harvest in a few weeks… 14-09-2025 I took her out of the garage for a thorough inspection. Pulled out another fat caterpillar, cut off some affected parts and sprayed her with Cannacure. The buds are mostly white. I think she will be ready in a week. Hard to tell when to harvest CBG. I stopped feeding her. She only got plain water today.

Week 8 is here and Budville is getting chunky and skunky. If this was not my first grow I would probably would have started some defoliation by now but decided to just be patient and see what the end result will be. She is right on track to be harvested around the end of this month, we shall see. Waterings have picked up greatly, getting 2L about every 36hrs with BioBizz every other watering, @ full strength based on their schedule. Set up an intake fan bringing in cool air from the A/C in the room. Able to keep the RH down around 40-45%, with temps running about 27C°. Budville is getting between 900 & 1100µmol , 65/72 DLI from the TS1000.

As the oldest one looks with 25 days of more approx 2 and a half weeks in advance as we can see, all calm advancing at the moment, enduring the high heat temperatures, the ones that were missing were transplanted into larger improvised pots.

Week 5

Been a joy too grow this tester , been healthy from start too finnish , green buzz nutrients kept this plant healthy and productive , this plant is slowly begening too ripen , so next week the flush will begin on her , I will hopefully get another 2 weeks out of her yet , so a nice two week flush ,

Day 0. New start. Sponsored grow. ALL NUTRITIONS ARE GRAMS TO LITRES !!!! Neutralise is in real measurement only. Soil was mixed two weeks ago !!! That line needs cooling time, have in mind !!! Main sponsor of this grow is Mars Hydro. They sent me new light again, this time i will try out TSL 2000 model. First impression : easy to assemble, but i would create longer screws and put spacers , that way would ventilate better than now its bolted straight to board. Ganja Farmer sent me few strains to try out, while i finally prepeared , got few more from them ;)))) Devil XL Auto is the first in try list. Never had good luck with funky colours plants, but in this run it will be two ;) Day 4. Girl sprouted on forth day, lets GO !!! Day 5. Made a video, all runs smooth, a bit lanky, needed to put lights on on 3rd, not 4th day ;))) saving electricity not always pays off ;) Happy Growing !!!

Hello everyone , Here is the phase of completed stretch, and the fertilizer fertilizer contribution are 100%, flowering starts very well and the appearance of the first pistil are visible everywhere. For the height of the plants I find it reasonable and thus keeping all this world a good size the luminous penetration will be excellent ... until now hene no sign of problem for my plants I think that the flowering will follow its rhythm .. to see in the coming weeks ... now place to photos ...

Defoliated,.. tips of the big plant going purple and into the leaves, defo going to be a colourful one, little one staying green I think,.. look OK, maybe a little something going on with a little discolouration in some leaves but I think they look healthy,.. start of week 7 let'sss goooo 🤞👌👍

She germinated and sprouted :) Thanks zamnesia for the allowing me to partipcate in another growing contest!
