As of day 57 the grow is going well! I am more confident that the leaf yellowing is regular end of life changes at this point. The buds are putting on decent weight and the trichomes have mostly clouded over. It is entering the harvest window in my opinion, but I am going to wait another week or so before harvest and give it some time to ripen more. I have switched my feeding to a mild does of GO biothrive bloom which will finish the grow with primarily organic nutes through the last couple weeks. i will continue to fade down the nutrients as the plant is hitting the end of its life. Thanks for reading!

Aquí tenemos otra de las maravillas de Sweed Seeds, uno de mis bancos favoritos, son capaces de crear autenticas maravillas de la naturaleza y tuve la gran suerte de que su equipo me regalara unas variedades unicas para poder analizar su comportamiento y crecimiento. En este caso tenemos una CRYSTAL CANDY XL AUTOMATICA de una talla alta de 4° generación. Esta genética ha sido desarrollada dentro de un programa del Departamento I+D+i de Sweet Seeds®️ enfocado en la búsqueda de curiosos, exquisitos y sutiles aromas dulces que evocan sensaciones aromáticas de tienda de caramelos. El aroma es muy dulce y afrutado con tonos aromáticos de chicle y gominolas de frutas, con pinceladas de fresa ácida y melón maduro. Gran productora de cristales de aromática resina y hermosos cogollos. Produce plantas que fácilmente superan el metro de altura. Por todo ello y mucho mas iremos viendo su crecimiento y desarrollo 😊 veremos todo lo que esta preciosidad es capaz de darnos MUCHO HUMO 🚬 😃 Día 1: Hemos germinando la planta en un mini-invernadero con una luz LED de 20W y una temperatura de 28°C con HR de 70% Día 2: La plantalula va a un ritmo bastante rápido. Ha cogido 3cm de altura sin problemas 💪 Aun tiene el cascarón que tiene que soltarlo, aunque si no es así se lo quitaré con mucho cuidado 🤭 Día 3: He transplantado a la pequeña a su maceta final dentro del armario de cultivo con un sustrato de Top Crop y Biobizz en una mezcla de 70/30. Todas las macetas cuentan con 3g de Micro Vita para protegerlas de plagas. Hoy tocó riego de 1L de agua con 1ml de Deeper Underground (enrraizador) para que su sistema radicular crezca fuerte y sano. La temperatura del armario es de 30°C con una HR de 60%. He tapado con tierra 2cm el tallo para que crezca con fuerza y no demasiado espigada dejando únicamente 1cm en la superficie. Día 4: Hoy hemos vuelto a regar ya que estoy trabajando con un foco HID de 400W que emite bastante calor y el sustrato absorbe demasiado rapido el agua. Estoy teniendo algun problema en cuanto al control de la HR ya que baja bastante por el calor que hace. Este problema le estoy resolviendo con el humidificador y con un pulverizador para mantener la humedad correcta. Día 5: Sin novedades

~ FastBuds PAPAYA SHERBET Photoperiod~ Well here we go on another journey together through 'Canna-land' and this one's kinda special... forget that, it's VERY special because this is FastBuds newest surprise for the community, a FEMINIZED PHOTOPERIOD STRAIN!🤯 I was fortunate enough to score these seeds, of which only 1000 were available and can't wait to see what this strain can do! This Papaya Sherbet, according to FastBuds, is a hybrid with a 9-10 weeks flowering period. For a more detailed and accurate description of this strain the following from FastBuds says it best: "Combining the massive stature of Papaya (Oni Selection) with the strength and resilience of one of our best keeper cuts (Sunset Sherbet), this strain develops into a big, expansive bush adorned with numerous bud sites that later transform into a generous harvest of medium-sized buds. Papaya Sherbet flowers deliver a signature flavor of premium cannabis with subtle citrus undertones that emerge upon inhaling. During growth, her aroma makes for a sweet yet pleasantly bitter fragrance, giving you an idea of what the smoke will taste like. Notably stress-resistant, Papaya Sherbet is a great choice for growers working in challenging environments. She is very forgiving and rebounds quickly from any adversity, allowing growers the freedom to experiment with confidence that she will take everything like a champion she is. This strain embodies resilience, flavor, and abundant yields in every grow cycle." Sounds like an epic strain and I personally cannot wait for this lady to strut her stuff!😍 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: This is going to be an outdoor grow, but I have started the Papaya Sherbet photoperiod indoors as our weather is still a bit too chilly to put a newly sprouted seedling outside (nighttime temp's dipping regularly into the 40's℉). The plan is simple... let her grow inside under a 19/5 light schedule until the nighttime temperatures are in the mid 50's℉, which shouldn't be long. After which, she'll be moved outside and transplanted into the soil which I have already setup and inoculated with beneficial microbes from BioTabs and slow release dry amendments from Gaia Green. Once she's established herself outside she'll be given periodic top dressings of Gaia Green 4-4-4 and 2-8-4 along with worm castings and Compost Tea's. Her grow area is approx. 5'x5' and I have posts and a trellis net set up already for when she gets bigger to aid in training her. Let the fun begin!🤪💚 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 5/23- Week three from seed and the second week of veg for the FastBuds Papaya Sherbet photoperiod and she's doing surprisingly well considering the crappy weather, and being eaten like a salad by slugs and a rabbit! 5/25- The diatomaceous earth that I spread around her seems to have lessened the attacks on her leaves. I've also been spraying her down every other day with Neem Oil, and every three days with an organic insecticidal soap that I'm sure has helped as well. I watered the Papaya Sherbet today via garden hose and began to train her branches a bit as well. 5/27- The FastBuds Papaya Sherbet continues to do exceptionally well with great color and vigor, putting out new growth it seems daily. 5/29- There's three weeks on the books for this little lady and I'm looking forward to see what she'll look like in the coming weeks! I will have to top dress her soon, probably in the next few days. I haven't added any dry amendments to her since I initially amended her soil and she's a hungry girl... Hope to see you next week, stay Blessed! Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏

🌱 Grow Journal – Week 5 Week 5 of veg, and things are looking better. The plant has clearly shown signs of recovery since last week’s transplant and repot. It’s gained back some strength, which is really good to see. I took off the dome because it felt way too hot underneath. Without it, the environment is much easier for the plant. I also switched on bottom feeding by opening the Autopot valve. Now the nutrient solution wicks up from below, and that seems to have helped a lot. Not an instant boost, more like the steady support it was missing. I think it was slightly under-irrigated before. The plant is now back on track and should return to normal growth over the next weeks. The start was rough, but I’m glad to see it hanging on and gaining vigor again. I also turned on the air pump to run the AirDome at the bottom of the Autopot, giving the roots more oxygen. We’ll keep an eye on how it responds this week. As for conditions, it’s still pretty hot: temps around 25–27 °C, sometimes hitting 30 °C. Humidity stays low, about 50%, not ideal but manageable. That’s it for this week. Have a good one, see you next time, ciao!

8/25 -Plants responded well to the increase on volume of water fed. Im really liking the +50 mLs a feeding (every other day) -Only a few of the oldest leaves have started wilting. This is normal and expected as those leaves have been used and abused the worse. I left them on originally because it seemed the plant was pulling nutrients from those two leaves specifically if there was any kind of deficiency. As I took care of the Ca/Mg/Fe issue a few weeks ago those spots went away. -The canopy is so damn thick defoliation doesn't allow for light penetration down to the coco. 🤷‍♂️🏻🤷‍♂️🏻 -I really shouldn't complain since these plants are definitely going to harvest big. Very excited -Building 4 separately raisable platforms so I can start growing my Fall plants. Only have 1 light, limited space for my grows but I don't want to waste a month of vegetation. If the platforms work as designed I am very confident ill be able to grow staggered harvests. The goal is to always have weed ready and cured for me to smoke. Buying from dispensaries is getting to be too expensive. -Went back and re red some online forums about growing in coco as I had no experience going in. All the forums said to essentially flood the coco on a daily basis. I have no idea how that is successful--when I tried that I almost killed my plants. Listening to the plant and reading its signals is WAY more efficient for me. The time lapse allows me to look at the plants normal day/night trends. SUCH a good idea plus it makes for a really great video at the end of the grow. 8/26 -NEw nutrient solution made. Same nutrient concentration and strength. -Cheese lowered 1.5 inches on its stilts. Its definitely stretching according to the Time Lapse -Cream Cookies smell is getting stronger and stronger every day. Cheese is the first smell to start developing. -Slight color change starting to occur on Cream Cookies. -Its beginning to become more obvious that Cream Cookies is transitioning focus from maintaining older leaves birthed in early vegetative growth and transitioning to only focusing on bud production. Lower growth is beginning to wilt out. A Natural lollipop if you will. 8/30 -Cream cookie buds are really really really starting to thicken and fill out. Looks like the final buds are going to be quite dense. The smell is really developing on cream cookies. Cant really put my finger on the exact smell but there is a definite strong cheese odor followed by a strong earthy smell. No sweet/citrus smells yet. -Cheese is flowering completely differently from cream cookies. It seems three of the main cola branches are going to yield absolutely huge buds. These main cola bud sites are stretching and small flowering nodes dominate the landscape of the branch all the way from the soil line to the canopy. It seems like the flowers are going to really fill in around the branches. -Lower branches of Cream Cookies starting to become more rigid, taking on rigid character of the main stem. Makes me think that the buds are becoming sufficiently heavy that the plant needs to reinforce some branches to avoid bending over and falling. Love to see it. -Slight signs of stress observed, going to reduce concentration of bloom nutrients to 11 mL/gal. Still should have all the nutrients the plant needs just in a less concentrated solution.

Bene amici growers come potete vedere la fioritura procede senza molti problemi. Ho innaffiato le piante per la prima volta con una soluzione adatta alla fioritura e ora staremo a vedere come pian piano cominceranno a gonfiarsi i nostri amati fiori. Le piante iniziano ad emanare un profumo inebriante, le Durban posion stanno già assumendo un colore violaceo mentre le critical sembrano un po' più in dietro. Vi ringrazio anticipatamente nel caso lasciate un like!!

FBTF was amazing. I tested topping with this plant, and while I do think that topping and root issues were the reason this plant did not grow so big. However, I did harvest dense colas that were all even in size and equally dense with loads of orange hairs everywhere, I am definitely growing again next grow.

This week I'm going to be adding Rhino skin until I decide its no longer needed . I've also boosted Piranha to 1ml/l . Im not sure what the PPM is yet as I havent fed them . As soon as I do feed them the PPM on my diary will change . We are entering week 2 and they are going strong . Already working on a second node I figure by the end of this week they will be looking at starting their 3rd . A big thank you to everyone who stops in to check out the diary . Stay tuned lots more to come !!! Happy Growing! -V.G Day#8 Pushing really hard for their second nodes now , going to be looking to get them stalks beefy start some LST soon. Day#9 we got ourselves the first tri leafs growing slowly but surely ! Day#10 They're pushing for the next node !! Growing along smoothly Day#11 The leaves are small but they got tri-leaves now and they are almost ready to expand ! Day#12 Watered 1/4 cup each 355 ppm PH 6.04 everything going well and they are growing along . Day#13 Responding well to watering, growing along nicely Day#14 Pushing their next node now things are coming along ! Week Report : They are growing well , things have picked up for them for sure I find the rate of growth a little slower then the other part of my current diaries but they are still going . Nothing but love for these little plants :)

D35: Nice spacing between the nodes, nice and short, nice wide leaves. Very Indica looking. I didn't want to top her because she was so short and branchy so I just tied her down D37: can't get over how squat and wide she is. Just lovely. D40: tied her down again and cut off a fan leaf. Gave her a feed of organic grow D41: she responds to the lst well. Nice and green on top, lots of branches coming. Should extend a bit next week.

Verslag derde week bloei – Purple Punch De derde week van de bloeifase bij Purple Punch is een cruciale periode waarin de planten een aanzienlijke ontwikkeling doormaken. Hieronder vind je een overzicht van wat je kan verwachten 1. Plantengroei Bloemvorming: De eerste tekenen van echte toppen worden zichtbaar. De bloemkelken beginnen op te zwellen en trichomen ontwikkelen zich. Stretch: De planten zijn nog steeds bezig met hun "stretch"-fase. Dit is vaak het laatste moment waarin ze aanzienlijk in hoogte groeien. Zorg dat de afstand tot de lamp optimaal blijft om verbranding te voorkomen. 2. Verzorging en voeding Voedingsschema: Fosfor- en kaliumrijke voeding (PK-boosters) wordt belangrijker om de bloemontwikkeling te ondersteunen. Blijf stikstof in balans houden; te veel kan de bloei vertragen. pH-waarden: Houd de pH van het voedingswater rond de 6.0 voor optimale opname. Watergift: Regelmatig water geven, maar voorkom overbewatering. 3. Licht en temperatuur Lichtcyclus: Houd de cyclus op 12/12 uur. Controleer dat er geen lichtlekken zijn tijdens de donkere periode. Temperatuur en luchtvochtigheid: Dag: 22-26°C. Nacht: 18-21°C. Luchtvochtigheid: 40-50%. Een te hoge luchtvochtigheid kan schimmelvorming veroorzaken. 4. Controle en monitoring Trichomen: Begin de ontwikkeling van trichomen te monitoren. De toppen zullen meer glinsteren naarmate ze rijpen. Plagen en schimmels: Inspecteer de planten regelmatig op tekenen van plagen, zoals spintmijten of meeldauw. Luchtcirculatie: Zorg voor goede ventilatie om hotspots te vermijden. Resultaten derde week De toppen van Purple Punch zouden nu meer volume moeten krijgen en de kenmerkende fruitige aroma's beginnen zich te ontwikkelen. Dit is het moment waarop de genetische kwaliteiten van de soort echt naar voren komsn

Journal de culture - Semaine 3 de croissance La plante a bien repris sa vigueur cette semaine, développant une belle masse racinaire, ce qui est très encourageant. Elle continue de se développer et je m’efforce de la maintenir la plus basse possible en utilisant des techniques de Low Stress Training. J’ai essayé le pinching, qui consiste à pincer légèrement les extrémités des branches pour les courber. Cela permet de rediriger les hormones de croissance vers les parties inférieures, ce qui maximise le développement des pousses. J’ai également effectué une légère défoliation en enlevant quelques grandes feuilles superflues. Pour le reste, je surveille principalement le pH. J’essaie de le maintenir autour de 5.8, mais avec les tampons présents dans les produits Terra Aquatica, il remonte régulièrement à 6.2. Je me demande si ce pH légèrement élevé pourrait être à l’origine d’un problème de coloration des feuilles, car la plante semble présenter une légère carence malgré la présence de tous les nutriments nécessaires. Je fais attention à ne pas ajouter trop d’acide afin de ne pas surcharger la solution nutritive. Globalement, la plante est en bonne santé et continue de bien évoluer. Je pense passer en floraison d’ici une ou deux semaines maximum. Étant donné qu’il s’agit d’une variété Jack Herer, qui a tendance à beaucoup s’étirer en floraison, je préfère la maintenir encore un peu en croissance pour travailler tranquillement avec les techniques de Low Stress Training et la défoliation. On verra son évolution la semaine prochaine ! 🇺🇸 Grow Diary - Week 3 of Veg The plant has regained its vigor this week, developing a strong root mass, which is great. It keeps growing, and I’m trying to keep it as low as possible using Low Stress Training techniques. I’ve been trying pinching, which involves lightly pinching the tips of the branches to bend them. This redirects the growth hormones to the lower parts, maximizing the development of new shoots. I’ve also done a bit of light defoliation by removing some large, unnecessary leaves. Other than that, I’m mainly monitoring the pH. I’m trying to keep it as close to 5.8 as possible, but the buffers in the Terra Aquatica products keep raising it to 6.2. I’m wondering if this slightly higher pH might be causing some discoloration on the leaves—it feels like a deficiency, even though all the necessary nutrients are present. I’m cautious about adding too much acid to avoid overloading the nutrient solution. Overall, the plant is healthy and continues to grow well. I’m thinking about switching to flowering in a week or two at most. Since this is a Jack Herer strain, which tends to stretch a lot during flowering, I want to keep it in veg a bit longer while working with Low Stress Training and defoliation. We’ll see how it evolves next week! 🤘😎🤘

Hello This is the end of week 4 and the beginning of week 5 of flowering. The plant is doing well and I see the resin has started to flow. I can defiantly smell the sweet diesel off it. But it has fruity hints too. Could be strawberry. The plant has a bit of red on the stem and leaf stems... so we might see some color at harvest... We'll see... OK. Be Great. Chucky.

Week 9 and Tropicana Cookies is entering the final stage beautifully. The flowers have continued to stack while maintaining excellent resin production, with dense trichome coverage extending well onto the sugar leaves. Buds are becoming noticeably firmer, and the plant is starting to show the first signs of natural fade as it approaches maturity. The open structure created by the training has provided great light penetration and airflow, allowing every top to develop evenly. Aromas have become much more pronounced, with the classic citrus profile beginning to blend with sweet tropical notes and a subtle cookie-like background. Nutrient levels have remained stable throughout the week, and the plant is finishing cleanly with no major issues. Now it's simply a matter of letting the flowers fully mature and monitoring trichome development to harvest at the ideal moment. Seeds by World Breeders Cultivated by Piperoots 🇲🇦 🌱🔥
