I start immediately apologizing for not respecting the week in updating the diary, but with work and looking after the plants I had no time. Now it is the end and I have collected everything. The experiments with ice water went really well and the pollen yield has increased again. The plant is spectacular and I am very proud of my work and what I have achieved. The buds are very compact and smell really exaggerated. This Cali I cleaned it all out of the excess leaves apart from the sugary little ones and left it in whole branches and hung it on a clothesline that I am leaving in a dark room with the values checked at least for the next week so that I can start a new cycle. But the smell is just too much!!!! Great FastBud and sure I'll be making more varieties soon. The monkey has now burrowed on my shoulder and the desire to try this delight is more and more.

Es war Zeit für die Ernte, im Urlaub hatte sich an der Pflanze im Folientunnel Schimmel an der Hauptcola gebildet und auch etwas an der Pflanze auf der Terrasse. Es hatte in dieser Woche sehr viel geregnet. die Pflanze wurde geschnitten und zum Trocknen aufgehängt.

A shout out to my brother's at Spliff Seeds! Without the good genetics you don't have shit! Lol 😂 Dutch Blue Automatic is a very aggressive growing strain.

Hi Grow room buddies. Here we have another generous sponsors run of Zamnesia Autos. Ordering was a simple process with a great delivery and after sales welcome to the brand. A nice touch indeed. Rhe pack I recieved was well wrapped and secure with no signs of being tampered with in any way. A really nice package of goodies was found inside from plant labels to grinders and plenty of nice stickers to decorate too. I chose the 3 strains as 1 I love as a strain in the amnesia haze and the Gsc is one i have fancied growing for a while. The sticky beast looks like a great new strain to sample too. I used the cup of water soak for 24 hours to soften the seed casing and dissolve any protective coatings they may have . After 24 hours they were still all sealed but had at least sunk so I left them a further 12 hours. I then put them allnjnto a light mix to hopefully germinate under my lights but at a good distance away and in a heated propagator . Within a few days I saw a few heads popping up and signs of most being awake by disturbed soil. Sadly leaving them for a few more days resulted in 6 making the surface but the only Sticky beast that got through , opened a second set of leaves and keeled over with a stragulated looking stem halfway up ??. I recovered her in her fallen state in the hope she may still fight on but it isn't looking good. ( see pics !) With only 5 making it to this point , I have had to fill the gaps with other seeds. A little disappointed to get 4 failures but hopefully Zamnesia will ensure this is looked at ?. I now have 3 very healthy looking Amnesia Haze and 2 sprightly looking Girls scout cookies to play with. I have now got them into their 30L pots and have done on them to encourage a little moisture while they settle in. Fingers crossed........

Welcome to the start of week 6 !!!!! I'm so excited to be almost ready to start training these ladies good and proper ! They are picking up speed and growing nicely . Ivy will be growing out 4 main cola's instead of 2 which is super cool !!!

Week 9 Flower Report: The Countdown to Harvest Begins! 🌼✨ As the ninth week of flower unfolds, the room is a symphony of colors and frosty brilliance—a true gardener’s dream! But as we approach the final stretch, it’s a delicate dance of vigilance and care to ensure a clean and bountiful harvest. Here’s a deep dive into this exciting and educational week: The “Flush” in Full Swing The flush continues as we prepare the ladies for their final days. While we’re a week or so away from harvest, the plants are responding beautifully, showcasing stunning fades that highlight their unique genetics. This fading process is a critical part of the journey, helping the plants naturally finish their cycle while preserving those complex terpene profiles we all love. The Mold Incident: A Teachable Moment This week brought a challenge—a few buds succumbed to bud rot (Botrytis), particularly on the Papaya Zoap and a single bud from the Gorilla Melon. While disheartening, it’s a reminder that mold can occur even in the most well-maintained gardens, especially with dense colas and a full canopy. After a thorough inspection, all affected buds were removed and discarded to prevent the spread. A quick note to all growers: defoliation plays a massive role in airflow and prevention of such issues. This is why mid-flower defoliation is a game-changer, and I’m grateful it kept the rest of the garden healthy! Papaya Zoap’s Unique Quirks The Papaya Zoap continues to be a star of the show with its frosty buds and… albino tips! These tiny white tips are likely from being too close to the lights. While it’s a cosmetic detail that doesn’t affect quality, it’s a fascinating display of how genetics and environment interact. A Frost-Filled Wonderland The room is absolutely glistening with frost. Trichomes are piling up like snow, giving the entire garden a magical wintery appearance. I genuinely believe the ThinkGrow LEDs and TrolMaster spectrum control deserve a shoutout here. Running deep red, far red, and UV at 100%, combined with whites at 50%, is delivering incredible results. The ability to fine-tune the spectrum is a game-changer for resin production and terpene enhancement. Environmental Mastery Here’s a peek into the environmental stats keeping the ladies thriving: • Room Temperature: 26°C • Relative Humidity (RH): 53.2% • VPD: 1.57 kPa • CO2: 1067 ppm • PPFD: 690 µmol/m²/s This balance creates the perfect conditions for fattening buds and maximizing quality in the final weeks. Nutrient & Soil Rundown On the nutrient side, the solution measures: • pH: 6.67 • TDS (Reservoir): 65 ppm • Solution Temp: 18.3°C Soil stats show a TDS of 695 ppm, indicating there’s still some nutrient reserve left in the medium—a perfect transition into the flush phase. It’s all about ensuring the plants have enough to finish strong without compromising flavor or smoothness. A Garden of Many Colors The fades across the room are a sight to behold. Each strain is showcasing its unique hues, with the Green Papaya leading the frost parade, and the Punch Pie taking the crown for bud size. Meanwhile, the Gorilla Melon is dazzling with red reflections, and the Papaya Zoap keeps turning heads with its white crystalline canopy. Videos with TM+ Pro This week, I’m also sharing videos straight from the TM+ Pro app. This tool has been a joy to use, offering precise control and insights into my grow environment. It’s simple for beginners and robust for advanced growers, proving once again that the TrolMaster ecosystem is a must-have in any grow room. P.S. Ecosystem Excellence I can’t emphasize enough how incredible the TrolMaster ecosystem is for growers of all levels. From intuitive configuration to seamless integration, it’s a system that simplifies growing while delivering professional results. Whether you’re just starting out or refining your craft, TrolMaster has your back. Thank Yous & Shoutouts As always, my heartfelt thanks to my sponsors: TrolMaster, ThinkGrow LEDs, Aptus Holland, Pro Mix Soil, Cannakan, and the amazing seed banks for their genetics. Huge love to the community—followers, haters, and everyone in between. And, of course, a special nod to Grow Diaries for being a platform where we can all share and learn together.

The wicked genetics plants are by far the most potent ones i grew and the most dank smelling like the gary payton x boston kreme pie (gary payton x wedding cake x thin mint cookies) is so dang potent this shit is an indica monster, I can't take more than 3 hits or I'm catatonic 🤣🤣🤣🤣 the gary payton x sour headband is still drying but I tried a little bit and that one is a sativa monster super nice heady high perfect for daytime smoke but both will rock your world if you take more than 2 or 3 hits I've never grown outdoor like this ever before I always grew local strains or clones but after harvesting these 2 plants I have decided that ill be growing nothing but wicked genetics for a long freakin time..the next line up im germinating are all special and will be my biggest challenge yet growing 8 different strains I have never grown and most of them being chem,sour or og kush crosses along with some more gary payton crosses (gp x king Louie og,gp x unicorn poop) highway og,evil og and kings og and triple threat and triple crown and lemon smoothie(lemon skunk x chemsicle) very excited I love growing fire strains I have never tried before these gp crosses impressed me beyond belief and I'm telling you guys go check out wicked genetics on his discord server or on IG or his website www.wickedgenetics.net, he gives tons of freebies if you buy from his discord and has regular and fem seeds if there's one person who's work needs to be admired it's Joshua's man hes doing some special work with og kush's,chemdawg,skunks,and sour strains it's insane how many fire strains I have from him and only really spent a couple hundered dollars where I was spending 0 with rqs and getting 10 northern lights autos seeds that I won't grow and the strains were never anything special not compared to wicked genetics the best bud I grew from royal queen seeds indoor isn't nearly as good tasting or as potent as the gary payton x boston kreem or gp x shb pie I grew outdoors I've never seen that

Two plant same strain being feed the same and I have two total different out come. The first one is nice and frost growing with no issue even smell great. The second one I don't know🤦🏿🤷‍♂️🏿. I not doing anything different from the other on but it's growing but struggling at the same time. Where the first one is super frosty and smell strong the second has no smell is growing buds but is not frost at all and the leave have been dropping. So what I did was flush the second one and will just feed it ph water and no nukes for about a week or two to see if it get any better.

First week of fees! The weather again has been all over the place from 80s to 50s at night. Cloudy, sunny, rainy—- you name it, I’ve had it! It’s super windy right now… Gave some green house feed bloom since she just started to flower! ✌️🏻💚🌿💨

She is growing strong and healthy whith organic nutrients

day 30 video day 30 note crossed bridal party x pink paradise day 31 crossed blackberry oreo bigstuff x pink paradise day34 videos of each, a lot of photos. Rh% high I keep my terps non-volatile. Bridal rubbing sugar leafs smells like some sort of candy watermelon, blackberry neat skunky AF sugar leaf rub, pink is nice mellow I will have to check tomorrow. Dr. Thunder very oily with sugar leaf rub I swear you could deepfry with it. It also smells mellow skunky but will check again tomorrow it may have been terps overload on my fingers regarding thunder and pink paradise aromas. Pink caylaxes have shriveled and accepted pollen locations. I just don't think the seeds will be ready when harvesting in a few weeks. Start week 5 tomorrow and I don't think crosses will be ready so I will figure it out. Pink crosses would be fun next round but I have so many more selections to choose from to grow my next 4.Thunder smells like a citrus cleaner, almost pineapple front notes then a full citrus. day35 defoliated like madd. no lie so sticky: 2 fingers lifted a ceramic cup like I was spiderman. 1 finger was a struggle.. science

Week 8 of flower. Trichs still mostly cloudy, seeing a couple of amber colors here and there on the bracts.

My own blended recycled living soil water passion love & respect only. ...... added soil biology includes Wallace wonder organics myco fungi .. extreme gardening AZOS ... and synergro ... along with my own farmed castings also inoculated I also blend my own amendments with Gaia’s stuff but very close to 50/50 there blend 500wQB running at 300w I like my ladies tied down and I tuck not pluck leaf

Week 5 , flower sites forming well, smell increase . Drop humidity to 45%

Blütenansätze nun deutlich zu sehen

Aug 15: Godfather OG is maturing nicely with a nice 16 cola manifold and nice thick buds starting to fill in. I thought this one might not like the climate here (cool nights) but she is doing great. Here at 53 N latitude the sunlight, particularly UV light, drops quickly after mid-August. i use UV lights from AC Infinity on days with no chance of rain. Seems to help and is easy to setup and teardown daily. These are indoor lights so they need extra attention if you’re ignoring their lawyer warnings and are using them outdoors. 😎
