day 50 - everything going OK. im using only water right now. day 52 - today I was in the local Grover's store where I was given a trial package of supplements 10 grams of powder feeding PK Booster. so today will be the first day of irrigation using PK Booster. dosage is 0.25 g per 1 liter - total ppm 140. (pure water ppm is 70) day 54 - another defoliation

Didn't change anything to the feed because she seems happy Did remove quite a bit of fan leaves, as I'm planning to send her into flower soon Not exactly mainlining, but it definitely is a very beautiful canopy

Hello growers and tokers! 👋 👩‍🌾 🧑‍🌾.🔥💨 There has been much change this week!! First there was a big defoliation done, I cleaned the bottom of the plants. All the growth that wouldn't amount to anything because the light doesn't penetrate that low. Also took off the biggest fan leaves to give more room for light. Then finally switched to 12/12.. After just 36 hours after the defoliation there was a major change. New growth everywhere, colas started stretching upwards fast. By far the tallest girls in the tent. Her colas are stacking up nice and tight if she keeps that up we'll have some nice dense colas. 😁 Great reaction to the defoliation and 12/12 switch. I'm still watering every other day, After the defoliation I watered with only Enzymes 2ml/L to clean the roots a bit then started with the nutrientes again. I dropped the amount of grow nutrients from 3ml/L to 1ml/L and started adding bloom nutrientes 2ml/L for now. I'll slowly be upping the bloom nutrientes and after week 2 I'll no longer add grow nutrients. That's it for this week. Stay tuned to see how they flower. Stay safe!

- Week 6 - ----- Day 36 ----- No feeding today as it was tomorrow so nutrient line up isn't up yet. I'll do that tomorrow. Ladies are perfect, I can't wait. less than 30 days away. ----- Day 37 ----- Today is feeding but back left is behind the other 3 again, gave the other 3 500ml of tap water (10ppm) to prevent turgor pressure loss while back left dries up. Should be feeding in 3-4 hours. 23L 1100-1500ppm (new feeding, so ppm end is not known atm) 6.4 pH Plants are insane, big Bertha has become middle Bertha as the other stems have fattened up quickly. Speaking of which plants are in bulk period, 3~ weeks left so it's an exciting time to watch them fatten up. **UPDATE** Fed at 1000ppm 23L 6.4pH The removal of FloraNova Bloom, and letting the chelated Diamond Nectar go to work on the molasses brings down the "accountable" parts by the machine I use. 1000ppm is full strength on all fertilizers being used. I might add more molassses in the future and bring it up to 2ml/L, and maybe a smidge of epsom salts next feeding via foliar or direct feeding after I do some research. No more KoolBloom liquid, KoolBloom powder begins and she's a strong one. ----- Day 38 ----- Yesterday back left plant has me unnecessarily anxious. It didn't need watering till 2 hours before lights off. What I did is fed the other 3 90% of the feeding, and only gave back left 10% (closed the irrigation heads till the end of feeding). I'm HOPING it was the plant transitioning from pre-bulk flower to bulk-flower stage, and maybe it slowed down photosynthesis to concentrate on hormonal changes. I dont know I'm anxious and just talkin out loud. I'll know within 72 hours if there's a major issue with back left. Plant looks fine, i'm just paranoid. Pictures later today around mid light cycle. Buds are getting insanely fat. **Update** Was bored. Here's some wicked shots. Still 25-27~ days left and its big bulk time. Can't wait to see them at the end. ----- Day 39 ----- Everything is great. Feeding late tonight or potentially tomorrow depending on back left plant. I want to make sure bottom center of the root zone has dried out and doesn't begin to mold before I water again. This will also help prevent fungus gnats in the soil. I'll keep the other 3 away from turgor pressure loss, but they got 90% of the feeding last time so I expect them to dry by the time back left is. *** Update *** Now the other 3 plants who were faster on water intake than back left yesterday have slowed down. Weed growing knowledge at a Horticultural greenhouse scientific repeatable level is pure fucking garbage. I have 6~ books and checked dozens of sites and there was major conflicting info on water intake. That's the problem with cannabis, it was illegal for so damn long horticulture practices and knowledge never molded or were used in the process and now it's anyone's fucking guess as to who is telling truth or is spouting bullshit bro-science. Don't even get me started on names. What a stupid god damn naming system "counter-culture" created... I'm growing wedding cake.. WEDDING CAKE? Wtf. That's stupid as shit. Give weed botanical Latin names based on appearance and technical factors PLEASE!!!!!! If I could name this plant it would be (Cannibas v. hybrid 'multa-magnum-fragum-gemmae-dulcis') why? It's due to it being a; Cannabis plant, hybrid variety 'multiple big bud strawberry candy' showing off multiple long bud stems smelling of candy, Is that more convoluted and arrogant than Wedding cake? YES, it is. Is it better? YES fuck your stupid wedding cake name. That's dumb. And you should feel bad. Still want to argue? Name it Cannabis v. Hybrid 'crustulam nuptias' THERE! Wedding cake. fuuuck! 99.99% of plant names are Latin. Anyways... back to the point... I hypothesize that there is a secondary transition portion of flower where the plant (like in stretch transition) pauses its growth to move the hormone and nutrient production to other sources. This secondary pause happens JUST before bulk session begins. This hypothesis states roughly that up until final big bulk period (last 3-4 weeks), fan leaves and sugar leaves could still be produced by the plant during a "predator" or "high weather event" situation that would cripple the plants photosynthesis for final bud/seeding production during early to mid stage flowering. Once the plant has reached adequate nutrient reserves or some other time or light cycle based trigger, it removes the hormonal/internal production/ability of sugar/fan leaves still being potentially produced out of the internode stem cells and fully stops that ability and concentrates 100% of growth on bud structure and protection of bud structures through THC/CBA/CBC/CBD etc. (Im a little tipsy, can't spell cannabinoid leave me alone...) production. Tonight I will at 30 minutes before lights off be judging the water requirements during sleep of each plant to prevent turgor pressure loss, and to allow each plant to finish this transition and get back to major water intake by feeding tomorrow morning. It's insanely obvious somethings changed. I Was worried that leaving back left plant with stagnant water in the bottom saucer (pot doesn't sit directly in the water but is 3 inches above it) had released mold spores and started destroying the root mass of the back left plant but: 1) No obvious plant death signs, weakness or other aspects of it being a slow death from bottom up. 2) The other plants did the same damn thing within 48 hours.... and the back left plant is by far the largest and gets the most "light" due to its size hence it would most likely (HYPOTHESIS) finish its secondary cycle a bit faster due to just volume and weight. Listen i'm not gonna say this is all 100% correct knowledge, It's based off feeling and "knowing" plant cycles as a greenhouse certified Horticultural Technician. Repeated efforts to grow and replicating situations that created these things over and over is the real proof and will come in time. One major benefit is the fact I WILL be re-flowering these for the VERY LEAST 3 full flowering cycles as long as they don't die during flower to veg transition. I will be getting them THC tested EVERY SINGLE flower cycle to prove without a doubt the "maximum maturity" possible of a weed plant re-veg flower cycling, just like how we know by the 5th or 6th successive clone, the DNA will deteriorate and the grow will be stunted or a lesser bud high and yield. God I fucking ramble when I'm bored and tipsy. ----- Day 40 ----- Fed at 1350ppm 6.3pH 23L Plants are doing great. **Update** Little fun video from mid light cycle. Roughly 20-25 days left. Will finish at 30% amber 70% cloudy and will cut branch by branch as they are done, not in a rush to do 1 single cut and will let them survive to re-veg easier and less stressful. ----- Day 41 ----- Easy day. Here's some pics. Just basically have to watch the grass grow today. ----- Day 42 ----- Big photo day, used ruler for most shots. End of beginning of bulk, big bulk starts tomorrow. Could probably feed late night tonight but I'm going to just give 500-750 ml of water depending on roots needs before lights off. Tomorrow will be a big feed for first day of week 7. Tropicanna Glookies tips on back right are beginning to darken and become purple. I am hoping this whole plant turns purple in last 2-3 weeks. We will see. **Update** Back right plant is starting to turn purple and FAST. Pretty awesome.

Not much to say this week. Still feeding the same amount. Looks like it might be starting to foxtail. It's really a bummer there is no purple yet, I grabbed this because I wanted a modern purple strain!

📆 Semana 7 La Monster Maker entra en su tramo final de floración mostrando todo su esplendor. Los cogollos se han compactado y endurecido, repletos de tricomas que dan un brillo casi plateado bajo la luz. Los pistilos comienzan a oscurecer ligeramente, señal de maduración, mientras el aroma se vuelve más denso y penetrante, llenando el ambiente con notas dulces, especiadas y un fondo terroso inconfundible. El riego se ajusta con precisión para evitar exceso de humedad, manteniendo la planta firme y saludable. Cada día revela una evolución visible, dejando claro que está en su mejor momento antes del gran cierre. 🔥 Fase crítica de maduración: la potencia, el aroma y la resina se afinan al máximo. ¡Seguimos creciendo fuerte 💪!

Haven't been remembering to post weekly updates! Everything is going great the auto flower girls are budding nicely and the other ladies are starting to flower nicely I'm giving alternating nutrients using a few different fox farm nutrient feed charts with my own take on them from notes an suggestions. This is the part that is so enjoyable but so stressful!

10/21- Flower has begun!! I've been gradually removing growth from under the canopy that I dont anticipate will become sizeable buds. Now we wait for the stretch. Took a few clones to try my hand at that. Air is drying out big time lately. I'm probably going to have to give in and buy a humidifier because it's going to be essential to keep my buds from drying out too fast and keeping these plants in healthy rh range. Despite humidity swings, plants seem to be doing well across the board so I already have a leg up on my last grow. I sprayed for bugs as a precaution. Neem and peppermint Castille soap diluted in water was the choice. Left a residue on my plants though so live been keeping my light between 30-40% and gradually turning up the intensity each day until I reach where I was(70) I dont want to burn my leaves because I have treating for bugs before. I will add pictures this weekend. This is posted on Day one so there's really not too much change to show in the plants. Really excited to see how they develop over the next 2 weeks. 10/24 Added pics of two plants. I accidently deleted my shoot of GZ 2 and I don't feel like taking them out of the tent again because it's a bit of a pain with the net. It's much taller than it's sister and maybe the healthier plant at this point. Moby dick is a bush, very healthy even still. No real signs of flower yet. They do seem to be stretching a bit but when you look everyday it's hard to tell. I'm hoping to have a really nice canopy in a week.

Hey yall! Super stoked to show yall some beneficial nematodes in my soil. Lots of other beneficials in there, the nematodes are the most fun to me! Love to show yall what Korean Natural Farming and JADAM can do. This is all Natural, all organic, all homemade inputs. I just want to prove to you all, the entire community, and the entire cannabis industry that you don't need to drop money on your inputs. You can source everything yourself! Remember, Bottles are for Babies! 🍼 👶 You don't need to buy into anything, you don't need to invest in anything, but YOURSELF! You are the most valuable tool, you are the most dangerous thing on this Earth 🌎 I want to be a resource to everyone and anyone who is willing to be open minded and learn. It doesn't matter your background, where you live, what color you are, or what is in your past. Your future and the future of this Earth is in your (our) hands. Togetherness over oneness Anyways, weekly compost tea applications and quality compost gets you gold! Also hand crafted inputs with love makes a huge difference. Use what you have near you, if you are wildcrafting inputs, be sure to not take from nature without giving back. Recycle, use less chemicals, pour your extra compost tea in your community. We can stop this wild climate change, but we can seriously slow it down, almost completely if we all do our part. I hope these posts inspire you to go down that rabbit hole 🐇 🐰 and get your hands dirty. Use and reuse the same soil, use larger pots or go in a living bed if possible. Have fun and learn something each day, pass on love ❤️ 😍 learn from your mistakes, that is what makes us stronger. No matter the mistake in your garden, or in life, we can always learn something new about life and ourselves. You are not alone on this journey, I got your back, and I truly believe in you. Peace and blessings to all! ❤️ 💙 💜 💖 💗

As the plant enters the fifth week of flowering, the first trichomes have begun to form. The buds have started to thicken considerably during this week. They are becoming denser and more robust, which indicates that the plant is channeling its energy into producing larger, more resinous flowers. Throughout the growth process, the cannabis plant has shown no signs of health issues. It has remained vigorous and resilient, with no observable deficiencies or diseases. To ensure optimal light penetration and airflow, the plant was lightly defoliated this week. The cannabis plant is progressing well in its fifth week of flowering. The formation of trichomes, the thickening of buds, and the plant's overall health are all promising indicators of a successful flowering phase.

Day 99 - Change up for ripening. Have Moved to the Sunmaster 10K finisher to see about frosting up dem der buds. Have also moved to using Dragon Force now to get the final push on them prior to flushing them back for the harvest. Getting plenty of Brown pistils (Much easier to see under the 10K) but from last nights look, trichs were still pretty clear. Have ordered a wee USB microscope of the Big Bad Amazon to give them a better look (expecting it Wednesday) as the wee handheld loope I have is pretty pish!!! Apart from that, its now a watching and waiting game! Hope you all enjoy the vid/pics and happy growing all!!!

Hi everyone Welcome 🙂 We arrived today at the end of week 12 in sweet company with these beautiful five girls all from the same family , KALINI ASIA 🕉️🎋 For those who already know no further explanations are needed, but just to be precise.. This diary it's for the Zamnesia Spring Cup 🏆 I'm growing all seeds Zamnesia has provide us for try to show how this strain can grow in different ways. The substrate will be the same light-mix soil mix with cocco and some one with humus The nutrients and the cultivation techniques will be different for each one So , I have reported down below what I do and I will do every week for the next few months.. The 5 ways 🌲🌳🌴🌵🎄 PS (Things I have and I still use in flowering , I have put for all five down below 👇, because are mostly the same) K # ​​1 🌿 {BLOOM n°6} Final height= 30cm Is the lady where I have use all the things ZAMNESIA was provide to us for free👌💯 ( I will spend more words about it when I post the harwest) _11l ZAMNESIA-POT _70g MONSTER-MIX _60%light-mix soil/30%cocco/10%perlite _mycorrhizae This girl is slightly faster in flowering when compared to the other four.. I remind you that both she and K # 2 and K # 3 entered flowering one week after K # 4 and two weeks after K # 5 respectively.. In addition, all three were tied by practicing LST, without topping I simply carried out a slight defoliation and lollipopping in its first half weeks after the 12/12 light change Everything is going well and for now I am more than satisfied 👌 She and K # 3 are not showing and I really think they won't delight us with pink / purple colors On the other hand, however, the buds are very dense and have a higher concentration of trichomes We'll see 😉 The other things I have use in this last seven days I will put down below 👇 K#2 🌿 {BLOOM n°6} Final height= 30cm For this girl I have use a different approach.. _11l smart-pot _Living Soil (my High-Brix formula) _mycorrhizae How beautiful she is right now 😍 The leaves are gradually losing their beautiful light green color becoming more and more yellow The plant has been in the auto flush phase, if we can say so, for about ten days.. So it will probably be ready shortly after 60 days 📆 The aroma that emanates is very good, it sincerely reminds me of a little Kush because of earthy hints I still don't feel it🙌 I will probably find them in smoke, but certainly in mix with other more citric / fruity notes It is still early to understand Certainly in the next two weeks the aromas will tend to explode.. I can't wait 😋 The inflorescences are slightly smaller than the others, most likely due to the diet they are following.. But I have no doubt that the flavor will be exceptional once dried and tanned at its best 🔥 Like the other sisters , the micro life/nutrients/stimulator I have use in this last seven days I have put down below 👇 K#3 🌿 {BLOOM n°6} Final height= 35cm With this girl I have use.. _11l plastic-pot _20gMONSTER-MIX + 70g guano kalong + 25g kelp kalong + some organic nutrients/stimulator _mycorrhizae This beautiful lady is the most leafy of the family 🍃 But also the one with the fatter flowers and perhaps with the greatest quantity of resin 💪 It is almost identical to K # 1 in terms of smell The flowers if you observe them well differ slightly as the white pistils are much more elongated than the sister who is growing in the official pot of Zamnesia.. Most likely at the end of this new week , I will start to defoliate a little bit ✂️ A little stress towards the end never hurts, just don't go overboard 😉👌 We will see how she reacts.. Things I have use this week down below 👇 K#4 🌿 {BLOOM n°7} Final height= 40cm The little one ..but the most resinous of the three purple/pink 💪 Whit her I have using.. _5l air-pot _30g MONSTER-MIX _mycorrhizae This little girl really smells delicious, but still very similar to K # 2 and K # 5.. Its buds are not too large but very sticky to the touch 🔥 She and K # 5 need water every day 💧 Certainly having used an airpot helps to dry the ground first.. Its larger leaves are now a beautiful yellow color and in a few days they will begin to fall I really think that at the latest within two weeks she can be mature at the right point 👌 As I said before, the flowers are not very large, but present along all the branches.. Even the lower ones have reached a remarkable durability that is gradually increasing We will see in the end 🤗 Other nutrients/stimulator I have put down below 👇 K#5 🌿 {BLOOM n°8} Final height= 60cm The beautiful one.. _7l geotextile pot ( not completely full , about 5,5/6 liters ) _40g MONSTER-MIX _mycorrhizae I love everything about her.. The ease of cultivation, the production of flowers entirely along the branches, the beautiful color of the latter and the spatial aroma🚀🔥 Now then, since he started to run out of nutrients, he has taken on and is taking on beautiful colors.. From green to yellow with fantastic purple hues.. The density of the trichomes is not at extreme levels, perhaps also because of the heat 🌡️ But the aroma it gives off is amazing A real pearl 👌👌 Today we are exactly 60 days from when it entered flowering.. I really think it will be ready not earlier than 70 days.. But I'm more than happy to wait a little longer I can't wait to enjoy it in a few months Ok and that's all about the general state of each one Now I have reported over here the other things I have using in this last seven days , apart the regular water I have give every day mostly for each ones 💧 So.. K#1 / K#2 / K#3 _5,5ml molasses each one _3,5ml rinhoskin each one _3,5ml topmax each one _3,5ml sensizym each one For the other two I have only using regular water💧 and some enzymes for K#4 So , for this last one this week I have using.. K#4 _2ml sensizym And instead for K#5 I have use _ water , every day We are getting closer to the conclusion of this fantastic cycle.. I have not encountered obvious problems so far, we hope to continue on this path.. This strain is really interesting and it is surprising me more and more I hope that you too can enjoy the best of the floral show, the photos do not do justice to the beautiful colors that I am seeing 📸🌸💮🏵️ Maybe it will be much clearer when I bring the flowers back once everything is done 😎 For now, this is it Stay tuned if you don't want to miss the show And thank you all for the support you have given me to date 🙏🙏 See you in week n°13 😄 Ciao ✌️ 🇮🇹
