Disclaimer: Stunning trichomes here too but after so many photos come down and look... We are in our Dark Time we really want to find colored plants to see what trichomes they have exploring the microworlds like Indiana Jones. This time it's the turn of the new Black Diamond, just released with a very Californian heritage and even more so, ladies and gentlemen here we are again in California it could easily be a plant from the best Californian breeders but it is Zamnesia and maybe it is even better... ** Remember that for all the varieties we have at least two plants, one left to grow straight and one worked with the techniques (come back during the week to see). today we are talking about the harvest of the dark phenotype, which is also the most beautiful and picturesque to show in the hole of both the colas and the wonderful macros. Bad luck wanted the most beautiful plants to finish first so in the next few weeks you will find very nice plants but these colored ones are from another planet. Technique used // In this case we let the plant grow straight with a bit of LST on the lower branches to widen and let it get light and a fimming at a certain point to try to keep the plants in that growbox aligned as much as possible. Better with the techniques or normal? This time we have two slightly different phenotypes, the scent and the flower are similar but this one is really super dark and how can you not prefer it but it's a question of phenotype the yield is excellent also on the other plant that will be harvested soon. Flower quality // From one to 10 stars + infinity. The plant has resined incredibly, the flowers are hard as marble so much that if Michelangelo Buonarroti were still alive he would sculpt a David. Truly beautiful under all points of life, the flowers are so qualitative that it seems to be in California really from the best growers in the world. To remove the stink from the top of the flowers, dust etc. we did the washing of the buds according to the procedure recommended by Luka on Zamnesia, I recommend it to you! Check the article in your language // https://www.zamnesia.io/it/guida-growing-cannabis/333-lavaggio-delle-ceme Fertilizers // I managed to unload this plant relatively here the black was fading on some of the sun leaves, it is not completely fading but for the photos I needed a full wild black. For the reasons mentioned above and for an excellent flavor I prefer Organic, All the fertilizers and additives of Plagron in the green / 100% organic version have fully satisfied me. Choose your soil based on your style and calculate the sheet on the website www.plagron.com - Bro if you are a stubborn type "I don't put anything in it" use additives listen every now and then.... and then come and tell me about it. The nutrients are available in convenient all-inclusive packages on the Zamnesia website. This strain is truly exceptionally Cali, usually plants bred by Europeans don't look so Cali, not this one. ---- https://www.zamnesia.io/en/11187-zamnesia-seeds-black-diamond.html Zamnesia Description // Looking for a potent and reliable feminized strain? Look no further than Black Diamond. This wonderful hybrid crosses Blackberry with Diamond OG, resulting in 90% indica and 10% sativa plants with a respectable THC level of 23%. Growers will love these tall, productive plants, while smokers will enjoy tasty sessions full of sweet aromas and delicious grape flavours. The Black Diamond's qualities continue to shine through when you finally get to sample the flowers. Properly dried and cured, her buds are irresistible, not only for their divine smell but also for their appearance. The predominant aromas in her bouquet are sweet and fruity notes, with the fragrance of grapes taking center stage. You can appreciate these aromas by smoking her in a joint or vaping her, but they will also shine in sweet edibles, and will add a fruity note to your cannabis delights. With their high THC level (23%), these delicious flowers quickly conquer the mind and body with a relaxing and long-lasting effect. The perfect strain to enjoy before a well-deserved rest. Music and Frequencies // For about 4/6 hours a day my plants listen to 432Hz frequencies made especially for their well-being and sometimes a bit of black music to give them those vibrations that only music can give. www.radionula.com All the best that mother nature has to offer is at ---- www.zamnesia.com

As you can see in the pictures the girls have stretched quite a bit more and are starting to produce nice buds. I think the stretch should begin to slow down soon considering they're entering the third week tomorrow. That delicious sweet earlier flowering smell is getting a little stronger. Mmm! Nom nom! It is proving difficult to squeeze them both into a single picture in the room I photograph them in. I may have to start only photographing them separately next week ๐Ÿ˜… We will see how it goes! I hope to acquire some photography florescent lights and a seamless background for future grows. Or, make a DIY background. This would allow me to take pictures elsewhere in the house where backgrounds and lighting aren't great. There was a little heat stress visible on some of the upper leaves but nothing major. I slept in yesterday morning and the lights were a little lower than they should have been. It did make the pictures a little less attractive, unfortunately. Hopefully I won't be feeling so lazy next week. Hope you all enjoyed this week! ๐Ÿค— Don't forget to like!

Just water as they are very small , light is a 100w Samsung led light for the first week then I will switch to the Zeus 465w Compact pro. I have repotted the plants now the seeds have popped, they are in 2 litre pots now. As soon as the toots hot the bottom of the pots I will put them in my autopots system. I have tried adding a layer of perlite on top of the bAc soil. To try and stop any bugs getting into my soil and also reflect the light back.

D67 removed ScrOG and repeated LST on left plant so lower buds will get more light. There is not enough space in tent to do the same with the right plant.

Day 50 since seed touched soil. From now on all is in stable position. Joe always will be in left corner, under fan, he was lowest, so it was smart to put him under. Plants dont grow well next to fan. 5 liters went in, want good run off and saturation. Later today will install second level of scrog. Reposition all shoots, some are lost, i almost regret instaling scrog, lost control of even height a bit, but canopy is very dense, branches went fatter during that week, i am happy . Mars TSL2000 is on 80% will increase to 90% at the end of this week. Day 53. Second level of scrog almost eaten, will have to make third, plus heavy clearing awaits next week ... Day 54. Think tomorrow is watering day. Girls need good clearing, bottom canopy been canibalised heavily, lack off air shows a lot. Will do third level of scrog together with watering. Day 55. Watered Joe, he is lowest, but looks nice. Think all deficiencies behind. Made light clearing, only bottom shoots which has 0 chance to make it, took part of LST down. Watering exposed roots - plant is occupying new lair , good sign ;) Happy Growing !!!

When you show love to a plant, she will do the same to you. Thatโ€™s whatโ€™s happening! This gorgeous Euphoria is a gift from nature (and RQS ๐Ÿ˜„). Not much to say about the ferts, which are doing their job. Flowers are getting bigger, so yeah, cool!

Hello. This is the end of week 6 and the beginning of week 7 of flowering. Things are going good in here. Plant #1 has it's brown spots back. The plants had both a watering and feeding this week. I think I will grow these plants to 9 weeks of flowering. I need to have these plants finished and harvested by the time the other tent is ready to cut down at week 10. So I like to flush before harvest. This is the last week of food for these beautiful girls. More about flushing next week. Chuck.

So, I keep my EC around 1.9-2.0, that represents about 3ML/L of sensi bloom a and b I thought I had some big bud left, but no, I'm tempted to use it again, because as much as I'm a fan of Advanced Nutrients, the price and the volume of fertilizer to use in their systems make them a money pit. So I'm thinking of using Athena for the RDWC and keep AN for my drip system and coco. To replace I think of the booster PK of Athena which is applicable from the 21 -th day of bloom. For the LEDS, I went to 70% intensity, or 1000 ppfd. All good, I will go to 80% MAX recommendation of SANlight without c0ยฒ in week 3. I put a first net, I placed about 1 apex per square and I will now let it grow, I don't "knit". I will install a second net at the 21 -th day of flowering which will be used as a stake.

Edit from 16th May. Ok, so... I got Fungus Gnats... I vacuum cleaned my plant my accident... Overwatered first 2 plants... This is not like riding bicycle, I had to re-learn few things. But we going strong! The biggest plant (Fat Banana week #4) growing big and strong, every 2 hours I can notice some changes, she seems to like the environment (32C and ~40% Humidity), soil stays wet for weeks literally. I have to buy bottom feeders and keep the top soil dry bone to prevent Fungus Gnats having sex in wet soil. I have switched to 600W now and I put my lamp around 30cm higher then before. I have a net for Sea Of Green hanging and waiting but Im not sure If Im gonna use it or If I'm gonna "lollipop" these plants just because there is so many of them now there. I didn't "top" because I believe that main cola produce some banger THC content and terps, so I want to focus on all main colas and just tackle the side ones. Edit from 17th May. It looks like Fungus Gnats don't like 24h light. I can see larvas trying to eat the roots (fuck you you fucking.... FuckYouGnat). But I don't see adults flying around. 4x yellow tape helps as well for sure. I ordered some Nematodes, they should be here next week. Until then I'm fighting manually. I placed a decoy on most of the pots. I'm hoping to attract larvas to the decoy instead of baby roots of my plants. They already eat one of my seedling before it even fully open the shell, so I think there are not so many of them to attack all plants at once. I feel like I'm having more and more control over them everyday. Moving the dry soil to the sides also helps a bit with killing larvas. Just uncover the wet parts with larvas and blast them with all the watts you have. So far 2 big plants looks good and healthy, some praying leafs every now and then. I think I'm gonna leave the lights for 24/7 until I'm gonna be sure these FuckYouGnats are gone. Edit form 18th May. Nematodes arrived, I mixed 1 pack in 2L and watered all 8 pots. I have 1 pack left that I'm planning to use next week or after 2 weeks. Lady Banana is showing her sex. I was worried that it looks like hermie but I think it's just Calyx in very early stage. She also looks "wilt", I guess from all that dry period, she got some water today with nematodes, I'll check on her tomorrow. Vacuum Cleaner Surviver going strong! I believe she would even survive a house fire!

Spotted some budrot again. This time I had enough of it and didn't want to risk further rot, so I decided to harvest them and not let them flower for another week. Forgot to take pictures before the trim, they look silly now without the support from the copperdreads and rubberwires haha. They had 8 weeks of flowering, I'm glad that 1 out of 2 came out nicely. The other one is just another regular looking outside plant lol. I always give them a first trim, so the buds can dry better, faster, safer. After some days or maybe at the end of drying, i will trim them again. You can expect the final update with pictures between 7 to 14 days from now. ps, Somehow the beautifull colors from the better plant doesn't show properly when filming or taking pictures, neighter am I a professional photographer. But ill promise to take better ones, once the buds got the final trim and got dried.

Hello Growers! Another week of cultivation, we are approaching the final stage! As the week goes by and they grow, they become more difficult to take pictures, due to the luminous flux inside the greenhouse, however, I made a video to better demonstrate how this progress is! Hope you like it! ๐Ÿ˜
