03/14/2026 Week 10! She looks fantastic. 39" tall now. I'm wondering what's going on with the sugar leaves. They are all super dark and drooping. The rest of the leaves look fine. I don't understand. Readings: pH: 6.35 EC: 1262 TDS: 631 Temp: 65.6° 03/15/2026 Readings: pH: 6.7 EC: 1068 TDS: 546 Temp: 62° I pHed the water. Now I'm letting it mix in with the roots. Which btw are higher up than the basket. I also added a second air stone. I read one of the problems could be lack of oxygen to the roots. That is very possible with the roots being as big as they are. So I added a second air stone. We'll see if it does anything extra. Her buds are nice and plump. There's a bit of clawing still. But not clawing. Some of the top leaves are bowing at the ends, like the theres too much leaf and the whole leaf can't really hold itself up anymore. I dunno. It's really only the big leaves. There's a couple with random claws. BUT, the sugar leaves are all dark green and down turned. It looks exactly like nitrogen toxicity, but I'm not using enough nitrogen for this to happen. And I can't find anything online that makes sense. Everything points to nitrogen toxicity with symptoms, but she's drinking less than eating. Her roots might be too big and she's not getting the oxygen she needs. Hopefully that'll do it. If not, I can try to lower the light intensity, but that's really taking away a whole lot of needed light in the lower canopy. I wish I could super crop the top. But I don't dare do anything like that. It'll stunt her bud production. Her leaf temp at the very top and main cola is at like 72°. From what I read, it's fine. So I don't think there's light stress. The pH has been kinda wonky with this one. That could be it as well. Update: SHIT! My pH pen broke. Gotta buy a new one. Should be here in 2 days. No clue what I'm gonna do in the meantime. I think I have a cheapo one I can use to get an idea of how close the pH is to 5.8 03/16/2026 Readings: pH: broken EC:935 cm TDS: 482 ppm TEMP: 69.2° After top off with nutes. Readings: pH: broken EC: 1038 cm TDS: 521 ppm Temp: 69.6° 03/17/2026 Readings: pH: 6.25 EC: 1075 cm TDS: 535 ppm Temp: 63.3° Readings after top off: pH: 6.03 EC: 1079 cm TDS: 539 ppm Temp: 63 6° Noooo! She's taking in less than nutrients. Is this an official lockout? Who knows. I hope it's not. The. I would need to flush for a day. It's not a huge deal, but I have to pump the water out in order to flush. And I can't get to the very bottom because the roots own it. Whole bucket is roots. So I always end up leaving a gallon in there. The environment is looking good. Not perfect, but good. 45% and 73°. I'd like it to be at 75°, but 73° is fine. It's really dry today and a bit chilly. Ok, it's freezing out. But the AI system adjusted as needed and all I had to do was fill up the humidifier. I shouldn't be running the humidifier at this point at this stage, but as I said, its really dry today. Like 29% dry. Plus it's not like it runs all day. It only runs then the RH drops down to 42%. Then it kicks in, blows around for a minute or 2 and then shuts off again. Barely any humidity needed. She looks great! Nice and tall. Unfortunately I didn't get rid of all the lower branches that just aren't making it. I would remove them now, but I don't want to shock the plant or stress her out in any way. I'll ask around. Maybe I can. They are legit 4 pistils in these lowers. There's quite a few too. I mean, I'll put them to good use. Easy to make concentrate with them. So I can't really complain. Anyway, she has really good color, but there's one leaf that has some rust on it. I looked it up and think it's a magnesium deficiency. So all I need to do is add some cal/mag. So if I have to do a flush, I might add the cal/mag to that water and let her suck up the cal/mag and not be rusty. No clue how much I need, but I'll figure it out. 03/18/2026 Readings: pH: 6.33 EC: 1024 cm TDS: 513 ppm Temp: 61.8° Well, I searched and searched and found absolutely zero sign of male parts. I took a few leaves off here and there. I really want to snip all the little budlets.The ones that don't stand a chance of maturing. But we are already into week 4 of flower. 5 more weeks to go. Anyway, she looks great! Buds are looking super fat. I can't wait til they are nice and fat. Branches are kinda thin, so I'll probably need my trellis net. If I installed my side bars, I would have a lot of space to cover. The environment looks pretty good today. No issues. But it's kinda cold out today and it's seeping in and chilling the buckets. Not a bad thing, but it won't get warm above the canopy. The foliage down below is too thick. So it's hovering around 72°. That's not too bad. It's not 75°, but it is within range. 03/19/2026 Readings: pH: 6.03 EC: 1020 cm TDS: 507 ppm Temp: 65.4° Top off jug readings: pH: 6.13 EC: 1203 cm TDS: 601 ppm Temp: 65.8° After top off readings: pH: 6.03 EC: 1002 cm TDS: 505 ppm Temp: 64.5° She's looking pretty good. The only issue I'm running into is new growth being nitrogen toxified. No clue how it's happening. I. Not using nitrogen. Well, cal/mag has nitrogen. And so does the base bloom. Other than that, she looks fantastic. Big buds. Gonna have a great time seeing how big they get. Hopefully we get some golfball sized buds. That'd be cool. The environment is perfectly fine. However, I'm very concerned with the light distance. It's like 6.5" from the canopy and I can't lift it any higher. I was considering takingrh event fan out, but there's no way I'll be able to do it without crushing the plants. Maybe next run, I'll remember to only use the filter centered in the tent. That should work out swimmingly. But not this run. And if I turn the light down anymore, it won't get through the canopy. I need a bigger tent. 03/20/2026 Everything looks good today. I have to check the readings, but that's about it. I plucked couple leaves here and there to bring more light to the other tops and deeper into the canopy. The environment is pretty good too. Annoyingly the inline fan is running full blast now. And there's no need for it. Good color, nice fat buds. Tall colas. Smell isn't there yet, but I'm expecting that any day now. Readings: pH: 5.78 EC: 1011 cm TDS: 506 ppm Temp: 64.1°

Smelling great!

Wetter war wechselhaft, relativ viel Regen. Sie hatten kein Problem damit und wachsen. Orion geht ab wie eine Rakete 🚀. 2 Banana ziehen mit, eine schleicht hinterher .Orion f1 Nr.2 und eine cream sind tot.kein Wachstum.also geht das Tagebuch mit 4 Pflanzen weiter. Bis nächste Woche ✌️

First official week of flower. Everything looking good. These need to be stripped again. Will do in two weeks

Day 21 flowering: Here we are after the stretch period has slowed down and I am now the proud grower of some great looking sweet seeds buds. All of the girls are producing really good looking, healthy budlets with a couple having some very dark purple to them too. I have spent some time re training them to a more open frame so the light can reachbthe developing lowers better and the airflow can be made more fluent below decks too. G girl#1 has some very nice tops forming up now with node spacing that should bring them to a more joined up affair. her size is good and I think I could have allowed her to grow more height for her canopy. She has a fair few mains going on too. G Girl# #2 8s still way out in front in bud development and her size is on par with #1. She has remained fairly squat in size and again I feel she could have been allowed way more height. Her node spacing is perfect for creating very fat donkey colas now and they are beginning to reach each other on the stems. opening her out and only removing the damages and very big fan leaves has definately been a must do job . she is ripe for bud rot with those chunky buds and so much foliage to trap the warm air too. G Girl#3 remains the stunted sister of the grouping in her 30L pot but I do think thisbis a pheno thing and not just the smaller pot. she has a slightly lighter colour to her leaves too. She has wider node spacing than the others but this could be more about perspective of size too. G Girl#4 is turning into the stars of the show for me. I wanted to try the tie down 5th node method that I have seen done by another grower i share info with. seeing the result and how it allows the lowers to form with very little slow down for recovery as topping does. The lowers have still shot out to become mains rhe same way but her size has kept going. Her node spacing is good and again I expect some nice thick colas to form. I am getting a diesel whiff from close up so far but expect the smells to start anytime now. I am very happy with this strain so far and find it very easy to work with. They seem very happy with their soil and I did add shogun boost and pk warrior to their major feed yesterday too. Sweet Cheese is looking good. I am glad i left her to go natural too and seeing her managable height , I think this is the way to go in future with her strain. All told , this week has been good and I expect the next 5 or 6 to be even better. Be safe Growmies. Thanks for stopping by.

An Tag 23 habe ich das LST neu angepasst um die kleine niedrig und buschig zu halten. An Tag 24 habe ich fast alle großen Fächerblätter entfernt und das LST erneut angepasst. An Tag 25 erneut LST angepasst. An Tag 27 wurden zu viele der unteren Triebe mit Schatten bedeckt, so dass ich einiger der Blätter wegnehmen musste.

08/29/24. Going into week 9 flower Day 65 out of stated 70. I think this one might be about spot on. Quite a lot of milky trichomes when I checked a couple days ago. I will be checking again today. Not much else going on, other than water only now and decreased light intensity to about 55%. Gotta say that even with the fights I had with this girl in parts of veg, I’m loving how things are turning out. She’s a freaking sticky, frosty, smelly beast. Can’t wait to see what harvest brings, but don’t worry.. she won’t be rushed. Anyhow, Ill update if anything changes Update: 09/03/24. Banana is no longer with the living. She was taken last night and is hanging fully in a dark closet at 61/72 with a small fan for air movement. It’s pointed down and not blowing at her. I don’t have a way to wet weigh, I always just give dry weight so no point in doing the harvest update week yet. I will do that when she’s dry and ready to cure. She’s definitely heavy though :)

Looking like 3 more weeks until harvest. I’m going to start flushing in about 10-12 days

Cream Caramel took more time to finish the cycle than other strains in the room. But flowers are well developed, sticky and thick. A bigger pot is necessary for having a better yield but the weed look strong and good.

So only after two weeks of curing these buds are becoming more and more refined! The texture of the buds is beautiful, it crumbles and grinds up effortlessly in my space case and is light, fluffy and almost “goopy” coming out of the grinder. I guess goopy is my description of ground bud that sticks together as it comes out of the grinder. It almost resembles goo or putty! That’s always a great indicator of a strain that has lots of sticky dank trichomes 😎 Now onto the high... I must admit, I was a little disappointed at first. I was initially caught off guard by how smooth the smoke went down, but usually after the first hit I feel something. After the first hit of this strain I didn’t, so I packed another bowl and sparked her up... not much different. Around 15min after my second hit I started to gradually feel a trippy/tingly full body buzz and strong head buzz come on. Once I sat down on the couch it’s like it fully kicked in and I really felt a truly euphoric full body high along with a head high that felt incredible. She’s definitely what some would call a “creeper strain”! To me though, the high is reminiscent of the first hour after ingestion of some top quality cubensis! In a nutshell the high is euphoric, energetic and crisp. I don’t feel groggy at all when I smoke this strain, I can be extremely productive with work and still articulate my thoughts with ease. I also noticed that I don’t get anxious in public and even though this strain is extremely uplifting and energetic I have zero issues getting to sleep at night. I could truly classify this strain as medicinal and I know if I was still a caregiver this would be on constant rotation! I will update more after 2.5-3.0 months cure!

All right here we are guys day 52 a flower 114 total I think I'm going to hit her with recharge one more time and the next day or so and then that's it water the rest of the way as I'm sure from top dressing there's still some nutrients making its way through the medium.. the nugs are starting to get rock hard and they actually are starting to smell like strawberries which is amazing.. as you can tell and as I've mentioned before I've done a ton of training to her she started her life in a bad home but we got her out of there at a young age put her in the right home and look at her go.. plants are a lot more like human than we know.. they're fragile when they're young like us then when we hit puberty it's the equivalent of them showing sex and that's when us humans stretch just like the plants and then we are considered adults where we are off on our own to produce our own fruits from our own labor.. the only difference between us and a plant is we devour our own fruit the plant feeds everything and everyone but itself.. we can learn a thing or two from plants.. anyway thank you WEEDSEEDSEXPRESS again for the opportunity I highly suggest you guys check them out God bless everyone and happy growing ✌️😎 https://weedseedsexpress.com/us

Last daaaays 😍😍 Im trying not to rush the flush and I rather wait a few more days to bring this ec right down. Still looking pretty healthy but the first one look on the end of the cycle. This might be the first one to go down ⚔️ Note to myself : stop thinking of cutting stop thinking of cutting ....

Harvest done 250g

So where I live we had a really bad storm it had knocked out my power for a full 24 hrs so I had to give them some extra attention to insure there was no mold or any pest with no fan rotation. Then I also had to put them back on there proper timer to get things back on a roll so far so good they still look and smell amazing wish me luck

End of vege REPOT 14 l to 20 l with plagron batmix. 5.10 lights switch to SpiderFarmer SF4000 12/12.

Sunday Jan 3; Transitioning from Veg to Flower Nutes is in progress. Tonight sees 2/3 Bloom / 1/3 Veg and that’s it. - dropped tent temp down to 26C and humidity seems steady just under 50% - feeding schedule has been every other day. Stretching that to every 3 days after tonight ** water volume is my conundrum ** Do I add more water for the plant ? Am I giving enough Nutrients to the plant for it to grow big? Question Time ! &. Results: Volume of water was raised again for dinner tonight. 2.5 g between both plants. On the great advice I received today from 2 growers, and my desire to increase the amount of food that the plants see; the volume of water will go up and the time between feedings will resemble more of a 4 & 2 day cycle. Other Changes—- *”hand-weighing the pots” to get a Feel for moisture content, will become a regular task. **Giving the plants an extra day to absorb larger feedings, will become part of a staggered routine to help keep them on the Dry-Side Mad growth again today (sun p.m.), with the last taste of Medi-One out of the way early in week 3. A 4 day liquid-break and then 100% flower food. Jan 4 saw the plant looking well hydrated. No obvious run-off from yesterday’s feeding, says a deep watering has not happened yet. I will give the soil moisture a chance to recover, and increase next weeks Volume of water (aka nutrition) slightly once again. Breaking new ground ie: past a gallon per plant indoors and watering based on actual Needs. looking for real progress Jan 6th: next dinner is listed above, either tonight or tomorrow it will be used, based on how Dry the plants feel tonight Today is day 3 since the last watering. If possible I’ll hold-out till tomorrow. is Desert-like. Leaves are still pert. And the ~13 gallons or so of soil still feels bloody solid. So I’ll wait till a 4th day and feed it tomorrow. Fresh pictures uploaded w/ a video Jan 7: Fed each plant after 4 days without food or water, and they look great. Upped water volume 1/4 gal ea., (1.5 gal total ea.) and this will start the desired 4/2 watering schedule. Amount goes up each of next couple weeks. (Then taper off nutes and h2o in the last weeks is the plan) -plants looked great after 4 days without water. Here’s one for patience. -if the plant growth and bud development are any indication... the plant on the left appears to be a week ahead of the plant on the right. The one on the right just seems to be taking off now. Jan 8 Uv-B use has been s/d for the time being ~ 3 or 4 weeks. I am going to wait until there are actual buds on the branches, before making good use of the wavelength. * also behind that decision is the fact that the plant Under the Light, is solidly 4” behind the other since I started adding short periods of uv-b exposure. (The plants were exactly equal up until I started exposing the R plant for 1/2 the CMH exposure. ie: 6 hours) The plant lagging behind in reach and bud development, is the uv-b plant. And that’s only been using it since Dec 31st ! As it stands articles are saying to use the Uv-B later in flower. OK, I’m in ! Taking action on an observation. Sat Jan 9: - opening the tent tonight there was a 3” stretch over the course of the nite/day on the left. And it looks like the plant on the right is kicking-in as well. Slower, but happening. Like the whole L plant grew 3”
