week intel: we reached the peak of flowering stage and need to cause a little more e.c stress from this week so e.c stress is twice a week i reduced the amount of Nitrogen and calcium and stopped feeding silicate in other hand i raised the amount of base nutrient and booster short story version: more K & P - less N stresses : a little E.C stress around 1.6 and 1.7 twice a week from this week feeding: i feed them 3 times this week with this order : day 1 : i feed them high with base nutrients(calcium & micros (half dose) + Bloom) about 822 ppm - 1.6 e.c to cause a little stress. day 3 : i feed them low dose of Top-Max + B-52 around 525 ppm - 1 e.c to let them recover a little but not fully recover still a little stress will caused. day 5 : i feed them high dose of Feeding Booster around 850 ppm - 1.7 e.c to cause e.c stress again guide of the week : from this week we can cause more E.C stresses. e.c stress if done correctly is one of the very few ways to increase quality in all aspects ( color , aroma , taste , bud structure , resin contents ) but if you over do it , listen carefully brother : it can reduce quality in every aspect so always look for signs and never reach the red line.

Hi everyone Hope you are all well guys. Another week gone and the Gorilla Automatic 2th grow from RQS looks about ready to finish. I flushed her day 65 with Flawless Finish. Today she's Day 70. Any day now she will be ready for chop. She's so beautiful 😍. Sad she will go down soon. 70% milky white trichomes and a few amber. At the moment. She's grown big again. Buds are big, nice and hard starting to get some purple on the buds. And she's smelly. For one or another reason I can't add Text to Pictures in GD. Sorry for that. Happy Growing

I will say that the game is not worth the candle with one plant, it's a waste of time to use nutrients. We'll see how it tastes...

My beautiful prince's is looking even better now that she's not having to deal with those freaking fungus gnats that were eating all the roots of my plant, I've got rid of them just by watering with a nematode called steinernema feltiae if you're having or have had the same infestation just apply predator nematodes like steinernema feltiae guys!

Week #4 KICKASS AUTO / KANNABIA Week #4 Veg she stated to show signs of pre flower late this week additionally she starting to stretch so I'm sure that she about to go into pre flower. She doing really well outside no issues this week to report! Kannabia.com KICKASS AUTO

Just flushing. I think one more week

cant be happier with the results tbh!!!

Day 80 This morning I started defoliating Tropicana. She will be in the darkness for the next days. I already harvested a part of the head flower and let it dry trimmed. Because of extreme weather conditions and very high humidity I got a little bud rott. I found it out quit early I think. So I hope nothing will not happen any more. Just harvesting relaxed and drink a Tropicana tee. Day 81 I decided to cut her down in the evening. The humidity in the basement room is high and I don‘t want to risk here anything anymore. Waiting for my first homegrown weed to be vaped. Day 82 Tropicanas flowers hanging to dry in my basement. I check them once per day with a strong light. Day 83 Same same. The smell is wonderful like a bit of gas combined with a fruity flower bouquet. Our neighbors in the house like the smell, too. 🙏 Day 84 I could try my first homegrown weed. It‘s absolutely tasty and have a very smooth vape. I was very surprised cause it‘s not cured yet. A longer vape report will follow when it‘s dried and cured. Day 88 All flowers, sugar- and tee leafs are trimmed and filled in glasses for curing. I open twice per day for 20 minutes. Boveda packs 58% inside. I will fill out the rest of the diarie when my buds are dried, cured and vaped. So far this was a very exciting journey for me. Growing cannabis and even legal on our balcony. Feels still a bit unreal, but it’s real! Thank you for reading my diary! Thanks to all the people who worked on legalizing cannabis in Germany, especially to the „Deutscher Hanfverband (DHV)“! I will give more updates and write a vape report after curing several weeks. Maybe with some Tropicana Cookies baked in Comfreys garden kitchen.

Day 39 of flowering 🌺

Second week of flowering in the bag, and they’re all looking really healthy, even healthier than when I first threw them in the flower steady as she goes

They are in solo cups after the peroxide soak. I've got babies!!!

Defo going keep going with f1 I have more still growing and there the biggest plants I've had thanks zameizia you guys are amazing

Me encanto esta semana, gran avance en las 2 Gorilla Rainbow y gran avance tmb en las 2 White Gorilla. BSF Seeds sin duda está haciendo un gran trabajo… Se les hizo más podas apicales y defoliación, y reaccionaron perfecto. Así damos por finiquitada la 4ta semana de vegetación y espero darle unas 2 semanas mas. Saludos cultivetas IG: @farmer.skr 🤙

🍬 Candy Rain Auto by Zamnesia | Week 5 (Late Vegetative Growth / Pre-Flower) 🍬 The Patient One – Growing at Her Own Pace Every grow has a story, and not every story begins perfectly. Candy Rain is the only survivor from this folder. Losing her sister early in the project was entirely on me, and that's simply part of growing. Every mistake becomes another lesson, and rather than focusing on what was lost, this diary celebrates the plant that kept pushing forward. Despite her delayed start, she's proving that healthy genetics and a stable environment can overcome a rough beginning remarkably quickly. While she's developing a little more slowly than the rest of the room, each passing week brings noticeable progress, and she's steadily writing her own success story. This project continues documenting how autoflowers perform under a true 12/12 From Seed schedule from germination, challenging the common belief that this lighting regime prevents vigorous development. Supported by the complete Plagron feeding program, grown under the Future of Grow Black Series LED, and thriving inside the Zamnesia-sponsored 8×8 Adventure, Candy Rain is becoming another reminder that every plant deserves the opportunity to shine in her own time. And this week... She's beginning a brand-new chapter. 🌱 Week 5 – No Rush, Just Progress Although I'm still considering this her final week of vegetative growth for reporting purposes, the plant is clearly standing at the doorstep of flowering. Fresh white pistils are appearing across the upper growth, signaling that the transition is now underway. Unlike some of her neighbors that stretched almost overnight, Candy Rain is making the change more gradually, continuing to strengthen her structure before committing all of her energy to flower production. Standing around 69 cm tall, she's currently one of the smaller ladies in the room, but there's nothing weak about her. Her main stem has thickened beautifully, the branch spacing remains clean and open, and every new node seems ready to become a future flowering site. She simply isn't in a hurry. Sometimes the plants that take their time during vegetative growth surprise us once flowering truly begins, and I'm excited to discover whether Candy Rain has one of those stories waiting to unfold. 🌿 Training & Plant Development Training has remained simple and stress-free throughout the grow. Low Stress Training helped open the canopy early, while regular leaf repositioning continues allowing light to reach developing branches without removing healthy foliage. A few of the older leaves still carry small scars from the early stages of the grow. Those marks are simply reminders that the beginning wasn't perfect. The important part is what the plant is telling me today. Every piece of fresh growth is emerging healthy, vibrant, and beautifully green. The stems continue strengthening, the canopy remains balanced, and new flowering sites appear a little larger with every passing day. Older leaves tell yesterday's story. New growth tells tomorrow's. 💧 Nutrition & Irrigation This week I made one intentional change. Even though I'm still closing her vegetative chapter, Candy Rain has now joined the same feeding schedule as every other flowering plant inside the room. Current feeding: • Terra Grow — 1.9 ml/L • Terra Bloom — 1.9 ml/L • Pure Zym — 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L • Power Roots — 1 ml/L • Power Buds — 1 ml/L Rather than keeping her on a reduced vegetative program, I decided to support the transition she's already showing naturally. With an EC around 1.78 and pH maintained at 6.0, she's accepted the new feeding schedule without showing any signs of stress. The newest growth remains healthy, the foliage stays richly green, and the plant appears completely comfortable with the nutritional change. Now she's eating exactly like the rest of the room. We'll see over the coming week whether that extra support helps her settle fully into flowering. 🌡️ Environment The environment continues providing stable conditions throughout the flowering room: Day temperature: 29°C Night temperature: 25°C Relative humidity: 60% Solution temperature: 21°C Root zone temperature: 21°C CO₂: approximately 639 ppm Even during the warmer summer days, the healthy root zone, consistent irrigation, and excellent airflow continue allowing every plant to develop comfortably. The ecosystem remains balanced, and Candy Rain seems perfectly happy within it. 👀 Looking Ahead Next week should officially mark the beginning of flowering. I'm expecting the stretch to become much more noticeable as hormones shift fully toward bloom, and it'll be fascinating to see whether she begins closing the gap between herself and the rest of the room. Right now she may be the slowest plant in the tent, but she's also showing steady, healthy development every single week. Sometimes patience is rewarded with something truly special. For now, I'm simply letting her tell her own story. 🙏 Final Thoughts Not every plant follows the same schedule. One of the most enjoyable parts of growing is learning to work with each individual plant instead of expecting every seed to perform exactly the same way. Candy Rain has reminded me of that every week. She isn't racing anyone. She isn't trying to be the biggest. She's simply growing at her own pace, building a healthy structure, and preparing for the next stage when she's ready. Whether she finishes alongside the rest of the room or a little later, she has already earned her place in this project by showing that patience can be every bit as beautiful as speed. A huge thank you to Zamnesia for making this incredible project possible, Plagron for providing consistently reliable nutrition, Future of Grow for delivering outstanding lighting, and to everyone following this 8×8 Adventure here on GrowDiaries. Your support, comments, and shared passion for growing make documenting every week an absolute pleasure. Until next week… Growers love and happy growing! 🌱💚

The Harvest Prelude: After a patient wait and 48 hours of darkness, the moment arrived. The Tropical Tangie Lego Ninja, standing proudly like a silent guardian, was ready for the grand harvest. The sound of each cut echoed through the grow space, reminiscent of felling a mighty tree. The compact structure of the buds was awe-inspiring, a testament to the ninja's disciplined growth. The Lego Ninja, like a stoic warrior, was then hung upside down, beginning a two-week drying ritual. Maintaining an ambient temperature of around 21°C and a relative humidity of 60%, this slow-drying process allowed the buds to retain their essence, preserving the symphony of terpenes and cannabinoids. The trimming phase unfolded like a fragrant masterpiece. Each bud, adorned with a glistening layer of resin, transformed the trimming process into a sensory delight. The zesty aroma of oranges enveloped the room, a tangible expression of the tropical lineage. The compact buds made every snip a careful dance, revealing an abundance of frosty trichomes. The moment of reckoning arrived with the scale's unveiling. The Tropical Tangie Lego Ninja, from a single plant, bestowed upon me 309 grams of dried medicine. Each gram was a treasure trove of cannabinoids, a promise of euphoria and relief. The sheer compactness of the buds translated into a concentrated potency that left me in awe. In parallel, the clones, nurtured with equal care, showcased a fascinating divergence. A twist in the tale unfolded as the intense oranges of the mother transitioned into vibrant tangerines. This unique expression, I believe, was a testament to the clones weathering a summer heatwave differently, bringing forth a distinct personality. The clones, resilient and generous, gifted me a bountiful 549 grams of pure joy. This now my keeper of the garden, an embodiment of the Lego Ninja's legacy. The harvest dance, though familiar, carried the nuances of tangerine zest, a refreshing twist that left me eager to explore its intricacies. Both harvests shared a common thread—their resinous abundance. The trim bin, akin to a treasure chest, gleamed with golden trichomes and fragrant joy. Sticky fingers became a badge of honor, a tangible connection to the resinous richness that filled the room. Shout Outs: No harvest report is complete without expressions of gratitude. A special nod to @DutchPassion_Official for crafting the genetic marvel that is the Tropical Tangie Lego Ninja. Their expertise paved the way for this epic journey, and I tip my hat in acknowledgment. In conclusion: As the dust settles on this epic harvest saga, my heart brims with happiness and excitement. The Tropical Tangie Lego Ninja has proven itself not just as a plant but as a living masterpiece. Stay tuned for the smoke report, where we delve into the true essence of this botanical ninja's legacy. Until then, fellow cultivators, may your gardens flourish, and your harvests be as bountiful as the joy they bring.
