There was nothing special to mention on that stage. Growing proceeded as normal.

Week 7 Flower — Sundae Driver (Grow Diaries Report) Quick recap for new readers From seed to here, this run has been a careful dance between living soil, precision feeding, and adaptive training: • Seeds germinated with Aptus support, then transplanted directly into 11L fabric pots of enriched soil. • Minimal veg — early switch to flower under 11/13 schedule. • One tall “moon-shot” top supercropped early in flower to control height and redirect hormones → result: knuckle healed beautifully, more bud sites formed. • Feeding has been a Plagron + Aptus combo, alternating between soil-driven nutrition and steering solutions, keeping EC and pH carefully managed. • By Week 6, we saw resin pouring in, trichomes swelling, pistils still pushing white, and strong aroma developing. Now, in Week 7, we are right in the heart of bulking. ⸻ Environmental update • Outside: brutal heatwave (temps up to ~45°C / 110°F). • Grow space: thanks to AC, canopy temps hold around 28°C with the lung room at ~21.8°C. • Humidity: still high, ~62%. Ideally we’d want 45–55% at this stage, but the girls are adapting beautifully — no visible signs of mold or rot, airflow and plant vigor are keeping them safe. • Tools: Trolmaster and Spider Farmer apps logged to share transparent data. ⸻ Feeding & recipe this week You’ve reintroduced the All-in-One liquid into the Plagron + Aptus recipe, pushing EC slightly higher again for an extra boost: • Plagron PowerBuds, Sugar Royal, Green Sensation → stacking, sugars, and bloom density. • Aptus Regulator + CalMag Boost → structural strength, stress resilience, mineral balance. • All-in-One liquid → full-spectrum nudge to keep driving flower bulking. This “soil-first, solution-steering” approach works perfectly here. The soil still holds a strong base load (your earlier EC readings confirmed this), and the solution acts like an accelerator without overloading. ⸻ Plant performance & structure • Bulking: Both Sundae Drivers are filling out massively — flowers are swelling, colas thickening, side branches almost unable to hold themselves upright. • Support: You’ve improvised by tying branches to each other, preventing collapse. This is a classic late-flower “good problem”: weight means density. • Supercrop site: completely healed, producing solid flower along the bent top and nearby branches. A textbook example of how to redirect growth without losing yield. • Color: Leaves still lush green, minimal fade — showing balanced feeding and no major deficiencies. ⸻ Trichomes & pistils — where we stand • Trichomes: Frost is stacking heavy — from sugar leaves to outer calyxes, a shimmering coat is spreading. Under magnification, most heads are clear-to-cloudy, with some areas beginning to lean more cloudy. Amber not yet common — perfect for Week 7. • Pistils: Still plenty of white hairs, but we’ll begin to see darkening and curling soon as calyxes mature and resin production peaks. • Meaning: Plants are still actively in the bulking/resin-factory stage. Harvest is not yet — but we’re entering the critical monitoring phase. ⸻ What Week 7 means (technically) This is the late bulking / mid-ripening window. • Calyxes expand → actual bud density increases. • Terpenes develop rapidly → strong smells, unique cultivar expression. • Resin pathways peak activity → cannabinoids build, but need 1–2+ more weeks to fully mature. • Risk window for botrytis → high humidity + dense colas = careful airflow essential. ⸻ What to expect next week Expect: • Noticeable increase in aroma — terpenes often “pop” around Week 8. • Trichomes shifting more to cloudy; a few ambers may begin depending on genetics. • Pistils starting to darken and recede, giving buds a more “finished” look. • Possible leaf fade (yellowing from the bottom up) as mobile nutrients are pulled into flowers. Don’t expect (yet): • Full amber trichome maturity — too early. • True “final swell” — that’s more Weeks 8–9+. • Safe humidity window — continue to monitor closely, as the dense colas can surprise you. ⸻ Practical checklist for Week 7 • Support colas: stake, tie, or net if branches keep falling. Weight will only increase. • Dehumidify if possible: even a small drop to ~55% would reduce risk of bud rot. • Airflow: max canopy circulation; keep oscillating fans moving air through colas, not just over them. • Microscope/loupe checks: continue logging trichomes daily or every other day — aim for a clear photographic timeline. • Smell watch: sudden changes in aroma (musty instead of fruity/sweet) can be early warning of mold. • Continue balanced feeding: don’t pull nutrients too early — Week 7 is still active bulking. ⸻ Reflection — the beauty of Week 7 Both Sundae Drivers are now showing their full potential: heavy colas, strong resin, vibrant health despite high heat and humidity challenges. This week is less about intervention and more about careful support: holding up branches, keeping airflow right, and letting the plants finish their masterpiece. The photos and videos (especially the behind-the-scenes “hands and camera” shots) add a human touch to the diary, it’s not just about the plants, but about the grower’s relationship with them. That connection, plus the technical details, is what makes our journey so special. ⸻ Gratitude & closing Week 7 is a turning point, the moment where patience pays off, where you get to watch the plants finish their story. Thank you to Plagron and Aptus for the tools, and thank you to the community who reads, comments, and shares this journey. We are almost there, but not yet.

Trust me, you won’t want to miss the next steps, let’s push the boundaries of indoor horticulture together! As always, this is shared for educational purposes, aiming to spread understanding and appreciation for this plant. Let’s celebrate it responsibly and continue to learn and grow together. With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 P.S. 🌱✨ For those of you who are afraid of trying out super cropping, this diary is living proof that it works. The bent stem bounced back stronger, healed into a solid knuckle, and rewarded us with extra bud sites and bigger flowers. Don’t fear new techniques. If your plant is stretching too much, or if you want to unlock more yield, super cropping is a safe, effective way to train her. Trust your plants, trust the process, they’re stronger than you think.

Tag 9 in der 2ten Woche und die wurzeln sprießen aus den jiffies. Hab die Mädchen direkt in die endtöpfe gesetzt (15 liter) Mills light mix, bin bis jetzt zufrieden mit allem

Primeros en la carpa pequeña de Home Box. Tiene 1.20 x60 pero es más que suficiente para germinar y los primeros días de la etapa vegetativa. Esa carpa cuenta con un Sodio de 250w y un águila 🦅

We enter the second full week of flower. I went and got some nutes to start adding in sparingly to the watering sessions. Mild mix from Foxfarms of their Tiger Bloom formula. I didn't catch that the large plant's leaves were curling pretty tellingly so I didn't realize I was about to overload the nutes for that plant when I should have been flushing for a week. I had supercropped this large plant as it was 6" taller than the others but it bounced back so quickly. Five colas snapped and turned 90 degrees, bounced back in a day or two. It did allow the others to catch up a bit. I find that the one potential male I removed was 100 a male as it now had well developed pollen sacs. I had this plant outside alonside the other two potential herm/males. I put the two questionable ones on the roof and chopped the male down.

Wow from day one this beauty has been my diamond in the garden .. she has the looks of a top notch bud and the smell is so good and strong it's great to walk into after some one burns a bud ...she was super disease and mildew resistant I never had to worry about her at all and she did well with minor what shortages .the only thing I would change is the temps when growing she will need above 70 or else she slowed growth a lot . The buds look and feel great and that smell so unique ..would highly recommend these guys they are the real deal cheers family cheers ....

Mimosa cake is looking like a fine specimen, great week of growth insisted I transplanted her into the 15L pot that she’ll stay in for another week before I move her into her final 28L pot and start to tie her down

Ended up flushing Mumma for about 10 days - got her ppm down real low. Night before harvest I set the timer so the light would not come back on in the morning before I harvested (I've seen people who swear by this and other who say it doesn't do anything but figured it couldn't hurt). At this point the other plants are pretty disappointing compared to Mumma so they aren't getting as much "love" lol.

Hi guys, What's up? Welcome back to Queen Peaky's Flower Gardens we immediately got busy repotting our autoflowers before giving them some heavy stress!

A planta segue bem parou de crescer na última semana e começou a engordar as flores.

Hi guy and girls , This week we fire up are much awaited 12 pot run , I started growing in August due to current and on going lockdowns which is now turning into a more serious grow op. Intro 1.5 m W x 2m L X 1.8 m H X2 loadstar 660w dimmable ballast 250w , 450w , 600w , 660w, settings 2x Amazon basic fans 1x floor fan 2x clip on VORTEX fans ( adding soon ) X 5 16 Litre pots X 7 13 Litre pots X 2 Euro reflotors X x 20 m squared of mylar X lots of electric cables X 2 new HID dual spec bulbs X Swift Air filter ( carbon filter ) X basic humidifier X temperature control unit X 450w frost defender ( heater ) X electrical timers heavy duty and non heavy duty X PPM meter X PH reader X GHE and VITALINK nutes ( check pages ) Some of the equipment that I'll be using in this grow along with the gorilla girl xl auto well be growing 4 cream Mandarin xl auto and x 4 Black Cream Auto and attempting some sort of ScroG attempt on these lady's or LST to keep my canopy even but also to allow as much light penetration and usage of light ad we don't want to see the floor as where wasting space ... So to start this auto run I'm currently refitting the grow room but germanation will happen within this current week I'd say the 26-1-2021 Be back with more info Hey guys back with a quick update some new pics of the upcoming grow we start 25-1-2021 That's her up and running at x400w x2 Hopefully we achieve the high THC % of 25% some plants may surpass this amount under optimal conditions. A tall stemmed 6th (Gen)eration autoflowering Plant coming from gorilla girl (photoperiod) and Sweet Gelato auto Alongside the gorilla girl xl auto is Cream Mandarin xl auto Black cream auto 26-1-2021 girls have all cracked there shells and are now making there way above ground Mabey the 28-1-2021 we shall see some leaves popping up .. then we can start the clock and hopefully keep harvest time to the breeders recommended flowering time ..! Okay so checked again 17-1-2021 l, most have removed there shells and are now forming there frist leaves , all 12 girls seem to be on the same page, Mabey a days difference but that's not gonna matter . Stunning the plant is a different situation as that plant or plants will be at a different stage of under the netting which would not be a good thing so hoping all goes well from here to week two is to monitor the plants for the to introduce nutes Anyone any safe and effective pest prevention and cleaning products that are plant safe

Its ripening, final week before harvest I love the fade this plant has so purple/yellow/blue

This is a tent full of clones that I finally found my 2 mothers I’m keeping

Everything seems ok👍

04/04 se levantaron hermosas! Les faltaba alimento a las pobres plantas, Se realiza fertilizacion foliar y se riega el sustrato con el estimulador de floración big one. 500 cm3 de agua de osmosis + 500 cm3 de agua del grifo + 0.5 ml - cal mag de top crop + 1.5 ml de big one - top crop. EC: 1.1 PH: 6.3. En 10 días se pasa a flor. Se agrega al sustrato 20 gramos de bokashi de murciélago 🦇 vegetativo 07/04 se riega con 2 litros de agua( 50% osmosis + 50% canilla) + 1 ml de cal-mag de top crop (una bomba) + 2 ml de oro negro de namaste PH: 6.2 EC: 1.0 Se coloca red para hacer scrog

Just ridiculous!! Wry impressive

Still doing her thing. Fighting caterpillars New growth everywhere and is shooting towards 5ft.(60inches) Very bushy and gets stronger from winds lately. Bent top stem to do low stress training

the weather in germany is still totally changeable. temperatures from 10 degrees at night to 30 degrees during the day. and lots of rain. she's still alive, that's the most important thing. 💪

Start of flushing for the blueberries, both blueberry plants have very heavy, sticky, stank buds, I'm looking forward to harvesting these beauties! Start of the last week of nutes for the super lemon haze, she has packed in the weight, buds have filled out nicely and stickier than the blueberries. She's still hungrier than the Blueberries, taking an extra 2 liters of feed each week. If the trichomes are showing cloudiness by day 5 of this week, I'll flush her early.
