Well, after majorly fucking up the princesses (but hoping one still survived) next in line are 2 North Thunderfuck. I named them Ei and Makoto (iykyk ^^) D1: this time we go the direct-to-pot route. Fuck plugs, fuck everything, we are raising two little fuckers! Hopefully with a better start this time... I swear Ill be patient.... I swear XD Like planned they will spend some time in the kiddie tent with their new light, and then take it over to the grown up tent once there is room over there. Lets go! D3: zzzzz ^^ D4: We have 2 healthy babies! Needed to help Makoto a little shed to her skin (veeeeery carefully with a toothpick). Welcome, girls! Can't wait to see your journey! They will be accompanied by a timelapse video, hope this time it looks better and is without stripes XD

The one jelly donutz is taking a little better than the second. Still battling root issues. Strawberry gorilla auto is a couple weeks ahead flowering

Una de las plantas tiene un deficit de calmag creo, he probado a cambiar el pH y añadirle calmag de biobizz, veremos qué tal le sienta.

Well that was a special day, it always make me sad in a way, but this time, I enjoyed the moment a lot. As I wrote in a reply to a comment, things can always be better, and they are with good decisions at the right time. These are the smallest and the biggesr plant, one seed didn't germenated and that's why I had to put a Red Gorilla. Not sure I will try a main mlinning on auto flowering strains any more.... but I think I did it wrong, first I took the one that seemed less strong for the experiment, and having 2 other plants to compete for lights. FIM is definetly a technique I will reuse if needed. It's so nice to have these genetic contrasts, colors, aromas, shapes. Many thanks for all the help you gave, precious. 19/04/2024 lower popcorn buds seems dried already! But still branches don't crack on bends. Will check again on Monday. I finally have received, lately a portable microscope, will be more ususeful next year! But this confirms that lower buds might have need more maturity but did the choice to not over complicate by harvesting in 2 times, my indoor tent is also my drying tent, and I wouldn't have any other place to dry the upper buds separetly while allowing the remaining to harvvest with more maturity. In general I think I might have began the Final part too early. BTW, we smoked the popcorn bud, and it's very promissing, we liked it.

Settimana 12 messa in archivio le ragazze stanno alla grande il gelo è ormai esteso su tutti i boccioli...altre due settimane e finalmente vedremo il risultato finale si questa corsa così promettente...

Das Letzte Abendmahl (mit Nährstoffen) 🌱 Titel: Schluss mit der Diät-Vorbereitung! – Nächste Woche gibt’s nur Wasser. "Tag 77 der Blüte: Die Pflanze hat ihren Frieden mit mir gemacht, nachdem ich sie aus der CalMag-Überdüngungs-Hölle befreit habe. Endlich sind die Werte so vorbildlich, dass ich sie als Desktop-Hintergrund verwenden könnte: EC 1.85 und pH 5.9. Die Wassertemperatur (21.1C) ist so perfekt, dass ich mir ein Bad darin wünsche. Diese Woche wird nochmal richtig aufgetankt! Volle Dröhnung Hesi, damit die letzten Blütenzellen auch ja explodieren. Ab nächster Woche, also in Woche 12, beginnt dann die große 'Nur-Wasser-Diät' (das Spülen), um den Geschmack zu perfektionieren. Die Schere ist schon gewetzt. Jetzt heißt es: genießen und warten!"

✂️ Defoliation one more time and LST adjustment. 🥦We stay training. ✌️🎃Thank you for checking my cultivation.

Well her branche thickness just amazes me her genetics are so strong.. Her leaf are thick an wide .. After topping her side branches are really kicking now.. Haven't had too much rain this last week. Just real hot an humid .. Thanks for all my growmies and your support.. Extra thanks to SUPER SATIVA SEED CLUB..🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆...really cannot wait to see her in flower ohh man

Trop Cherry #8 x BeeJayz hasn’t been topped, I transplanted the girls this week from a 1 gallon pot to a 3 gallon pot. Trop Cherry was in a plastic pot but now in a fabric pot. Plants seem to be growing well.

Coming soon

Structured Defoliation & Light Redistribution GMO Cookies — Week 7 From Seed (12/12 From Seed) ( Week 2 Flower, kind a because this run is 12/12 from seed, developmental phases overlap. While we are in Week 7 from seed, flower morphology places these plants approximately in Week 2–3 of true flower formation.) ⸻ 🔁 Quick Recap — How We Got Here This run was flipped 12/12 from seed. No topping. No high-stress training. No aggressive manipulation. Only: • Strategic leaf bending • Gentle positioning • Natural apical development • Controlled mineral feeding through the AutoPot system • Occasional top-feed inputs when needed We let the plants express themselves first. That decision matters. Because what you’re seeing now — the uniform tops, the consistent structure, the even canopy rhythm — is the result of restraint early on. No panic training. No overcorrection. Just guidance. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment & Feeding — Why We Changed Nothing This week, deliberately, we changed nothing. • Day temp: ~28 °C • RH: ~65% • EC: 2.4 • pH: 6.5 • Height: ~40–80 cm • LED lighting (multi-layer + under-canopy support) Some growers see 28 °C in flower and panic. But context matters. Under LED lighting: • Leaf surface temp runs ~2–4 °C cooler than ambient • There is no heavy infrared load like under HPS • Transpiration behaves differently So if: • Room = 28 °C • Leaf ≈ 24–26 °C • RH = 65% Leaf-level VPD sits in a comfortable early-flower range. We do not calculate room VPD in isolation. We observe plant behavior. And the plants confirm stability: • Upright posture • No tacoing • No clawing • Strong internode spacing • Healthy green without tip burn We are not chasing numbers. We are paying attention to them. That’s different. ⸻ 🌿 Feeding Strategy — Why EC 2.4 Is Intentional These GMO Cookies are evolving fast. At Week 2 flower, they are: • Stretching • Building structural mass • Initiating bud sites • Increasing water consumption EC 2.4 is not a random number. It matches: • Growth speed • AutoPot constant availability • Mineral shuttle stability • Transpiration rate under LED Because AutoPots provide continuous feed, the goal isn’t spikes — it’s consistency. No dramatic increases. No sudden drops. Just stable availability. That’s why we did not change anything this week. When plants are stable, changing variables creates instability. ⸻ Defoliation — Controlled Intervention, Not Reaction This update follows the exact chronological order of the session. Before defoliation, we observed: • Mid-canopy density • Lower airflow restriction • Interior shading • Competing secondary growth The intervention focused on: • Removing obstructive fan leaves • Cleaning lower interior branches (lollipopping) • Improving air channels • Increasing light penetration • Prioritizing top flower sites No stripping. No shock. Just structure correction. ⸻ 🔥 Under-Canopy Light Marks — Addressed Transparently Minor leaf surface damage was observed on some lower leaves. Important distinction: This is not nutrient burn. This is not systemic stress. These were: • Localized photon exposure spots • Leaves positioned too close to under-canopy diodes • Surface-level tissue damage Cosmetic. Monitored. Adjusted. Under-canopy lighting increases lower bud potential — but placement must be respected. This is part of dialing in layered LED systems. We document it openly. Because transparency builds trust. ⸻ 🌱 Why the Plants Look So Uniform Three plants. Very similar rhythm. Why? • Stable feeding • Stable environment • No high-stress events • Even canopy exposure • Gentle early leaf positioning instead of hard training Consistency early → uniformity later. This is not luck. It’s controlled inputs. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Week You will likely see: • Stretch slowing down • Clear bud stacking beginning • Pistil density increasing • Water consumption rising • Slight increase in aroma intensity You should NOT expect: • Massive swelling yet • Heavy frost development • Final bud density We are still in structural flower. GMO builds weight slightly later. Patience is part of the architecture. ⸻ 🧠 The Philosophy Behind This Week When everything is stable: Do not interfere. Many growers change parameters weekly just to feel active. But cultivation is not about constant movement. It’s about: Observation → Understanding → Adjustment only when required. This week required observation. Not correction. ⸻ 🙏 Gratitude To the GrowDiaries platform — thank you for the space to document honestly.

Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

-private problems-

This week was really great ! Today is day 43 and this week I tied them down a little more for LST and these 5 Wedding Cheesecakes are all starting to flower!! This week they will be getting a different dose of nutrients, switching to bloom so I’ll will be measuring out 1tsp of grow instead of 3 tsp , an bloom will be 3 tsp instead of 1 tsp, everything else remains the same per gallon of pure filtered water!! Can’t wait to see how these girls start stacking!! Y’all stay tuned for next week !! Happy grows✌️

Just as I thought, ran into a calcium lock out, it's my own fault but its a lesson and ill learn from it. I'm guessing I over did it with bloom and top max bloom stim, all the other readings are good so that's my only idea. Ive taken a picture of a couple of the affected leaves so please tell me if im wrong, any help will be greatly appreciated, im still learning. Bud development is coming along so she isn't suffering too much I don't think....Anyway, today is day 22 of flower, she's starting give out a nice fruity scent 😋

I’m week behind due to work a lot these days but here’s my girl on day 39 of flower. Starting to fill out more nicely now. Did some minor LST and defoliating as well to open up the canopy a bit. Patiently counting the days down till harvest. A little over 3 weeks left for this girl. One more feeding with nutrients and then every feeding afterwards will be plain water. Till next update ✌️🏾

Very strongly cut off, I prepare to the beginning of flowering, he released a call that for some reason had a pair of leaves, because of which it turned out to be a little more torn off than it cost, I will give her a couple of days and we will begin the translation into flowering, also revealed a call which has 3 points of growth on each floor. Changed lighting: 37 watts white 55 watts blue, 38.5 watts red, Today I fully watched the side lighting and the electrics, controlled from a smartphone similar to the top lamp

Buds getting fat!

Crecimiento lento, esta planta en tierra madre y en buenas condiciones suelta medio kilo fácil, se adapta bien y podría haber sido mucho mejor, pero es mi primer cultivo y es lo que hay, tiene un sabor afrutado y muy resinoso.
