Added yellow sticky fly traps to all cubes as a preventative measure to avoid infestation of fungus gnats. So far none have been spotted. Defoliated and did a little more LST to all the plants to open up the center and give more light to lower shoots. Blue Dream 3 and Chemdawg 3 started showing some discoloration on the leaves (yellowing around the veins) and also the leaf tips curling down. Did some research and came up with this... Possible diagnosis: - Yellowing around leaf veins could be a sign of Magnesium or Iron deficiency - Leaf tip curling down could be a sign of Nitrogen Toxicity. - Both could be caused by improper ph balance in water Possible solutions: - Applied Botanicare CalMag+ as a foliar feed and added some to the reservoir. CalMag+ contains Calcium, Magnesium and Iron. - Diluted nutrients in reservoir to lower amount of nitrogen being fed to plants. Was feeding them at 1300ppm, lowered it to 1050ppm - Tested runoff and saw it was coming out at 5.4pH so I increased the pH in the reservoir to 6.0. Now the runnoff is testing at 5.7pH, meaning that my rootzone is in the optimal range of 5.5-5.8 Well wait and see how the plants react to these slight tweaks. Hopefully we start to see a nice healthy even green again.

End of Week 8 (First week of flower) Increased the CO2 to 1200ppm and the ladies love it, already started stretching within the first 3 days of flower which shows that CO2 definitely boosts the grow cycle of cannabis. The main top-sites are popping up everywhere and everything looks evenly spread out. I defoliated again because the fan leaves are growing so fast and blocking bud sites. I also did one last lower canopy maintenance and removed small and stalky bud sites and stems below the trellis net to make sure I get maximum energy distribution to the main colas. I also added some GHF BioEnhancer to make sure the soil-microbes are happy and that the plants reach their maximum potential. Pest Report: EXTERMINATED! Thrips VS Ladybugs VS Neem Oil... I decided to fight fire with fire - I purchased Swirski-Mites from Koppert (They are beneficial insects that feed on the eggs and larvae of thrips and other unwanted pests). As for the adult thrips - I got very lucky and found about 10 Ladybugs in my garden and decided to introduce them into my grow room as they will feed on adult thrips and any other unwanted pests. Then to be extra sure I know that neem oil hinders the life cycle of pests like thrips causing them to stop colonising in my grow room. So I sprayed the ladies every day during the dark period to make sure there are no pests that I or the Ladybugs have missed. Mission accomplished. No more wilting and definitely no more thrips.

Today starts week 6 and couldnt be happier everything is green and lush and i cant wait to see what she can do since im training her and shes supposed to be a tall sativa plant

Such a top quality strain 🔝 very very terpy, stinks like OG kush, rock hard dense nuggets, they're literally rocks. Very frosty nuggets, full covered in resin flowers. Those orange hairs just make her irresistibly delicious 😋 I just can't wait to smoke such a high grade. This is gonna be a good year. Hope to always have this lady in my garden every year 🤤👨‍🌾💎🍪

This is the week 2! Well, the plant looks really healthy, and she kept growing up, straight to the light! Good to see that even after the strange beginning, with the stem crooked, she recover her path! This week, I'm also planning to start feeding them with some NPK. Just need to read a little bit more about it and buy nutrients. Probably I'll try Canna stuff. Anyone know if it's good?

Bit of lower defoliation this week to tidy up to increase air flow. Very short girlie's and suffered a lot. They seem to of entered preflower end of this week. Only small update as had very busy week.

So after consideration of the density of the buds and my night humidity levels— decided to chop a week early. Buds are super dense. Concern for mold. Very leafy lady- with massive fans She’s 10% amber but still some white pistols on the lowers. Very easy to grow. Stayed on the shorter side with minimal stretch—which is appreciated. I love how the Plagron Green Sensation is nitrogen free! I used it from weeks 3-6. Super helpful as the leaves were getting a little curl— even with minimal nutes. Will have harvest report soon. As terps can change after dry/cure. Happy with the results of the Runtz and Plagron! 🏻💚

Week 1 went off perfectly, purples babies reaching WEEK 2! 😍 PRESENTATION OF THE LADIES 😍 ------------------------------------------ The four plants are the same genetic. But they already have a different look, and I would introduce them to you :) 1) The Ugly - She have terrible first leaves. But she isn't late compared to the other. So I still believe in my Ugly! 2) The fatties - 2 of them grew wide leaves. It's just about leaves shape for now. 3) The solar panel - This one grew less wide but longer leaves. Regarding the Ugly, I must say that for the 4 seeds, I had to manually remove the shell when they sprouted. They all had their shell on after sprouting, and I don't like that. Probably a bit old seeds? For now, they share the same needs, and seems all happy. But this might change. I may even not be abble to recognize them, except if I cheat on them by putting labels on their pots ^^ 💧 WATERING 💧 ------------------ Luckily, the weather is offering some rains, and I been abble to put the ladies out under the rain during day 7 and 8. Not that long, they still got watered on Day 8, some hours after the rain. With feeding for the first time! 🍗 FEEDING 🍗 ------------------ First feeding. Used Fish-mix at 0.8ml/L. I plan to have a second watering in the week, but without nutrients. That's why I written 0.4ml/L in diary settings. If you know me, you also know that I like Fish-mix, but that I'm also effraid of it ^^ As foliar later during veg, it's an awesome products, easy to see that plants love it. But it seems verry powerfull, and need to be used carefully when given to plant. My rule is to limit to 50% of recommended dose. For now. Anyway, Fishmix right after a rain must turn on every form of life in soil I believe 😀 Even life coming from rain. 🏡 GROWING CONDITIONS 🏡 ----------------------------------- Starting an indoor session on the end of summer seems a good choice for me: - Some rains that provide me better water - I can put the ladies out if verry sunny, to save electricity/money - Perfect temps in the grow room. My house is always windows open. ​The growroom lightup in the end of the afternoon, when the day get cooler - Plants will flowering indoor during winter. I need heat during winter, so thanks grow room :D And cold air mean verry dry air! So reaching low humidity on the end of flowering will be verry easy! Pests : Nothing to report for now. I'm expecting a visit of my good old friends the thrips in 2-3 weeks 😎 Grow tent & Light (XS2000 ViparSpectra) : Something I notice just now: I'm abble to close the grow tent without air-extraction. I never been abble to do that in the past. This light is waaaay more efficient, and produce way less heat, because I couldn't keep tent close with my previous Mars Hydro TSW2000. Don't be effraid, I still renew the air in tent multiple times a day ;) 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 Thanks for reading guys :) Thanks for crossing your fingers last week, as you can see.... it worked! PS : Improved my skill with my new camera. But except more and more better ones as I practice ^^ 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 Update Day 13: Plants watered with PH 6.2 water. Look at that Hugly... She really have a problem 😅 I'll try my best with her 🙌

They are taller than me now... I think they stretched. I am insanely excited to see these ladies go to flowering. The veg stage is completely out of control! You can see that I've added a soak hose to the garden to later the roots over night. I want to make sure the roots receive total saturation to bring nutes all the way down to the deep roots.

Growing strong and healthy!!!🙌

Cut and hung, only the best buds kept, beginning dry cycle. Into jars after 11 days dry, beginning cure.

Buds tightened up waiting on small wave of amber tricks 10 to 15% amber is guchie for me

D71/FD43 - Sooo...its all gone a bit to dick this week! So, as noted before, Oscillating RAM fans keep blowing on me. Just stop dead and haven't got a chance to get down the 90miles to get them replaced again. Well, noticed a few leaves that looked like they may be a bit light coloured...only 1 or 2, at the top buds which is strange and not really an N deficiency...so I looked more closely....4 buds with the dreaded fur on them!!! Fucking Bud Rot!!! Ones closest to the door that would get the biggest temp differential (So the weirdest humidity) and no air really getting round them!!! Talk about a SICKNER! This grow just seems to be blighted (literally) with something new every 3 weeks!!! So, had to chop a few tops and now going to be on the defensive for the next few weeks. We're not yet ripe and *hoping* as these had the least air movement round them, the spores didn't get about the place!!! Worst as well is the height of all the plants...cant get the UVB bulb in there for fear of burning them but that would potentially sterilise the fungus (I'd usually be using a 10K finisher this week but with the change to LED...) so now to work out what to do. Also didn't help that I didn't put the lid on my tank right last night doing a check and think i pumped about 10L of water about the place!!! Yip, today was a disaster!!! So, apart from that, I've dropped the Silicon and changed to TNC bactorr for my root inoculant (Out of great white). Apart from that, happy growing all!!! 💪

Did a medium defoliation in the middle of week 4 prob around day 25. Everything is going smooth and I will most likely add another layer of trellis once they start packing on more weight.

# GodFather OG by Zamnesia | Pheno A 🌱👔 ## Germination Week | An Offer a Seed Can't Refuse Hello GrowDiaries family! 👋🌱 Every grow begins with a seed. But some seeds arrive carrying a little more reputation than others. And when the name on the package says GodFather OG, well... expectations naturally enter the room before the plant even emerges from the soil. 😄 Before we begin, a small explanation. With the current GrowDiaries photo limitations, I've decided to document each phenotype in its own dedicated diary. Instead of grouping multiple plants together, every phenotype now receives its own space from seed to harvest. This allows me to continue documenting every stage of development as thoroughly as possible while selecting the best photographs from each week. The objective remains exactly the same as always: To create an honest, educational, and complete record of the grow from seed to harvest while sharing observations, successes, mistakes, and lessons learned along the way. Today, we begin following GodFather OG Pheno A. --- ## A New Member Joins the Family Every seed carries potential. Every cultivar carries history. And every grow starts with curiosity. For this run, we're following GodFather OG from Zamnesia Seeds, cultivated under a 12/12 from seed schedule from the very first day of life. A method that is a little different from what most growers choose, but one that has become part of my own cultivation style over time. Throughout this diary, I'll explain not only what I'm doing, but also why I'm doing it, allowing anyone interested to follow the process from beginning to end. For now, our newest family member has officially arrived. And like any good family, we'll give her the best start we can. 😄 --- ## Germination Using the Cannakan System For germination we used the Cannakan system. Simple. Organized. Reliable. A bit like having a good consigliere keeping track of everyone's business. 😄 The container is divided into separate chambers, allowing multiple cultivars to be germinated simultaneously while remaining properly labeled and organized. Each seed was placed inside using only plain water. No nutrients. No additives. No stimulants. Just water. Within approximately 24 hours healthy taproots had already emerged and the seeds were ready for the next stage. Fast. Clean. Efficient. Exactly the way we like to start a new operation. --- ## Why Only Water? One question that often comes up during germination is: "Why not feed the seedlings immediately?" The answer is simple. The seed already contains everything required for its first stage of development. Nature already handled the negotiations before we arrived. Inside that tiny shell are the energy reserves needed to establish roots and begin life. At this stage, I prefer allowing the seed to do exactly what it was designed to do. Water is enough. The objective is not to feed the plant. The objective is simply to wake it up. --- ## First Experience With Coco Starter Plugs This run also marks my first experience using coco starter plugs. The plugs were fully saturated with water and then gently squeezed to remove excess moisture while maintaining a healthy balance between water retention and oxygen availability. The germinated seeds were carefully inserted into the plugs and placed inside a humidity dome. The dome remained useful for only a short period. Within less than 24 hours the seedlings had already emerged and were ready to continue their journey. At that point, they were transplanted into small containers filled with Plagron Lightmix. --- ## Environment Environmental conditions remained intentionally simple. Temperatures around 26–27°C. Humidity maintained between approximately 65–70% using a Spider Farmer humidifier. Rather than keeping seedlings inside extremely humid conditions for extended periods, I prefer introducing them relatively early to the environment they will actually experience during growth. The goal is adaptation. Not dependence. Airflow remains extremely gentle at this stage. Just enough movement to keep fresh air circulating without creating unnecessary stress. --- ## Looking Ahead So far everything is progressing exactly as hoped. Fast germination. Healthy taproots. Strong emergence. Healthy color. Good vigor. And most importantly: A strong beginning. At this stage every phenotype remains a mystery waiting to reveal itself. And honestly, that's one of the most exciting parts of growing. No matter how many seeds we start, every new plant arrives carrying a story we haven't read yet. This is only the first chapter. And for GodFather OG Pheno A... the family business is officially underway. 🌱😄 Huge thanks to Zamnesia Seeds for the genetics, Plagron for the substrate and nutrition, Future Of Grow for the lighting, and everyone joining us for another seed-to-harvest adventure. Grower's Love everyone. 🌱💚
