07/13/2025 - Day 105 Short Facts: - 75cm tall - VPD @ 1.0 - Fungus gnats and thrips are still there - predatory mites are deployed to the battlefield (the soil!) - green lacewing larva are also deployed and are placed on the card near the outbreak ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Well, she’s developing, but it seems like she’ll need more time than her sister, because the buds are still quite small. However, she’s starting to show some really beautiful deep purple leaves around the flowers. She might turn out to be quite stunning when she finishes. Unfortunately, she’s now also infected with thrips and more than I had seen the week before. I hope the green lacewing larvae will do the job, but just to be safe, I’m going to order more this week. The fight is on! I also uploaded some pictures and a video of one of the leaves they’ve basically destroyed. Really sucks that this is happening so late into the grow.

Alright going to compile all the results of the different harvests into this one report. Its easier to have all the pics in one place. They are all autoflowers, Best grown outdoors in my area as they finish on time and just before the rainy season where molds and WPM takes over anything. So there is a lot happening in the pics. Took a pick of the planter after I harvested and of the plants hanging up, Some of them are in the bags from the freezer. All the plants where trimmed wet and frozen fresh expect the Blue Dream, They will all be getting turned into Bubble Hash once the weather gets a bit colder in my area. Will do it on the desk when its aorund 0c so freeze point but nothing to crazy. Side notes, One plant grew a weird colourization thing and have dark and light leaves on one branch. looked kinda neat, and one of the plants I found a bunch of hatched eggs "maybe butterfly??" on one of the undersides leaves. Will not know harvest weights or anything till after I transform it all into the hash. Most of the plants weed and not weed grew roots outside of the planters and across the deck boards, kinda fun to see when moving the planters. Had a velcro like effect to them. Many of the plants did not even survive a week past germination or did not germinate at all. I did not included these into the report and most of them where from older seeds. One of them was not but it is a strain I have known to be a little bitch unless everything is perfect and easy. so not the best genetics overall. Out of the ones I did grow and that survived they are listed below. Fast Buds CBD 20:1 This plant grew small in both containers it was placed in and did not excel very much, it had an ok growth pattern but nothing to write home about, Likely best suited for an indoor growing environment. vs outdoors, Need to try this one again in a better pot or indoors. Curious about its flavours and potential when given more of a ideal environment. Exotic Seeds Strawberry Cola This plant did well in the small container it had, Made some nice looking buds for what it was dealing with, Did not have the best sun vs some of the other plants and showed a bit of WPM at the end of the harvest on one of its leaves. If it was grown is a large container like some of the other well performing plants im sure it would be a bit better but still a squat plant, perfect for my stealthy grows where you need things contained a bit more. Ganja Farmer Blue Dream Did well, had a few of them growing in smaller pots and one in a big pot. the smaller ones where not worth doing anything with, really needs its own pot not shared and good amount of medium. it will thrives. Plant had no real issues and grew well. Ganja Farmer Gorilla Cookies This was the best performing auto out of them, It had the bigger plant and took up the most room. It was in a planter with a smaller plant and it did not make it. The Gorilla Cookies overtook it and excelled heavily. Great buds and nice frost, if I had more I would grow this one again. TBH any of the Gorilla line up from Ganja Farmer has been very impressive outdoors for me. I have tried a few of their other strains and had some issues from smaller plants and pests but the Gorilla mixes and lineup is a winner for sure. Would recommend this to anyone who just wants to set it and forget it and feed every so often. Fast Buds Apricot This was the 2nd best performing plant, it was just a bit smaller then the Gaja Farmer plants and they where located beside each others planter boxes. The Apricot did share its space with another plant that grew to a descent size so it was share more of its resources then the cookies. another good option to have for an outdoor grow, just let it be and harvest end of it all. Great smells and looks, would grow it again for the smell alone its nice when you walk past it and bump it then waft the sweet nectar of the plant. Seedstockers Blackberry Gum Very tasty plant and excellent aroma off of it. It came out strong and grew very well. It was planted with another seedstockers plant that did similar and had a great overall success. Of the two plant that popped off one was more fruity then the other and the other was more sour. All of the plants I grew from SeedStockers this year where great growers and produces. Will do them again and again if I have the chance to. They don't seem to have duds in the seed like the others ones did, and they where just as old as the oldest ones. So they last for a while. Seedstockers CBD 1:1 Silver Lime Haze This was the plant growing inside the same container as the blackberry gum. It had a great hazy smell, sour and hints of cirtus. Like the other Seedstocker seeds it had two that popped up and one of them was more diesel. When trimming this one it was oliy as fuck. I have no doubt if I pressed this stuff for rosin it would be a heavy producer. Love the 1:1 ratio of CBD to THC and think more strains need to do this. I remever reading something saying when there is aorund 1-2% CBD in the weed it can make its effects even stronger. Fast Buds OG Kush + SeedStockers O.G. Kush these two where to be a grow off between each other and find out what one is best. They had similar growth to each other and one of them go so top heavy it bent over. I will know more about these ones once I crack the bags and give them a test once all the processing is done. OG Kush was one of the first ever strains I grew and did it very well under low wattage and blue light. It has a special spot in my heart even if I did not like the high or taste all that much as many others do. Well that is it for now. I may comeback and edit of this and add more bits. Any questions let me know in the comments or send me a DM.

Miei cari amici, L'estate incalza e finalmente il tempoi permette di trasformare ad hoc. Secondo i gusti il giardino, la terrazza e i due balconi. Un lavoro duro e intenso con i 25/30 gradi che il NW in questa settima sta proponendo e che spero vivamente durino tanto. Travaso storico e professionale. Vediamo ciò che l'armadio dice. Questo travaso probabilmente ritardera di due o tre settimane il raccolto, ma andava fatto e ne varrà sicuramente la pena. 28/06 My dearest friends, comrades and farm partners. Doc. Cannas is extremely happy to introduce you to the 5 wonders of Expert Seeds. Still my most heartfelt congratulations for their genetics, between photos and videos you have seen what a wonder these little girls are growing. Today they have been introduced to LST, an art halfway between Astana yoga and BSDM. Being their first time there was a need for love and passion. So it was. At the next update farmers

They are growing very well, and I have bend them quite a lot. Made some mistakes and break some branches like 2/3 on each...I put some rubber tape on them hoping it will go on, but I got a good feeling for that. They got a nice shape and are just getting some signes of flowering. I have also cut like 2 or 3 Big leaves by plant, i Hope it'll be ok for them.

Utopia Haze is a rare heavily sativa dominant hybrid (90% sativa/10% indica) strain created through back crossing Brazilian Sativa strains. This tasty little bud took home 1st Place for Best Sativa in the 2008 High Times’ Cannabis Cup and for good reason – with its potent 18-22% average THC level and long lasting cerebral effects, Utopia Haze is one powerhouse smoke. The Utopia Haze high comes on soon after you finish your first toke, hitting you with a strong cerebral lift that infuses you with a sense of hazy relaxation. Type: Feminised/Photoperiod Cultivation: Indoor/Outdoor Flowering Time (days): 70-75 Indoor Yield (g): Up to 650 Feminised Outdoor Harvest Month: October Feminised Outdoor Harvest Month Week: 3rd-4th week Aroma: Citrus, Woody, Pungent, Mint Effect: Cerebral Lift, Hazy Relaxation, Sleepy Welcome Everyone to the Final Entry of my Utopia Haze Grow ! There is so much to discuss ! I have been extremely busy as of late trying to get this Harvest together, but i am happy to have it here for you now ! I Seriously under estimated the amount of time, help from others, and my own necessary skills to pull this off.. and i still kind of screwed it up lol ! But its worth noting i have never actually done this before and trying to document it during....was extremely hard. It is next to impossible to work an iPhone with rubber gloves on ! First I want to discuss everything step by step so before you jump straight into the comments on how the end product is so small in "quantity" Rest assured i am happy with its"quality"...and thats all that matters to me because Life is a journey not a destination! and i have learned so much from this grow that I couldn't be any happy even if i messed some things up :) But at the very least I hope you read through this entry in its entirety with an open mind and focus more on the process, rather than just the outcome! I ran out of Ice & i was only able to wash three times..(normally I've heard you should go sometimes 5-6 washes) Preparation is Key & things will be much better next round :) Photos 1-22 These are pretty self explanatory but for those of you just tuning in now.. this is what happens to a very happy plant when you don't have the necessary tools to monitor key components of growing cannabis.. Ph, as well as EC levels play a very key role in the outcome of your grow lol that being said I was just able to save this plant by purchasing both tools but that doesn't mean the plant didn't suffer because of the prior events.. This was a Huge reason behind me choosing to turn this harvest into what i would consider "Solventless Hash Rosin" from "Ice water extracted Bubble hash". Pictures 23 The idea here is the process of using "fresh Frozen Cannabis" this has been discussed many a time online on such sites as instagram and here on grow diaries as well.. I personally have Never tried the process so i decided to try it out and make a judgement for myself.. Video 24 The Cannabis has now been in the freezer for 72 hours making it very well frozen.. as you can tell i struggled getting it all into the 25u Screen Wash Bag. One thing of note i would do differently is i will de-stem my next batch as i also believe this played a part in the amount of plant matter that escaped through the sieves. Photo/Video's 25-28 The idea here is "ice water Seiving" & especially with the bags that I am using here that are only have screen material on the bottom portion of the bag it is very important to have spaces in-between the screens to allow the water to pass directly through the screens into the bottom bucket with the least amount of resistance.. because the hash is so extremely temperature dependant if it gets warm on the side of the bag.. it will stick there and not make it to the bottom to become use able product.. 29 You do not need to use as much Ice as i used here lol... the idea is to keep everything very cold..i certainly achieved that but at the sacrifice of using so much that i ended up grinding product and producing "contaminants" but in the end they are just plant matter that i would be smoking when i rolled up my joint either way so.. I'm not super disappointed.. But it should be noted that what you want to achieve here is a Layering effect where you have the wash bag between two small layers of ice while the "water current" washes the Trichomes away allowing them to be separated by the screens setup below :) Before Starting the machine you should allow some time (i.e.;10-12minutes pre soak to allow the product to become saturated) before the first cycle. By video 32 I have just ran out of ice lol.. Video 33-34 Here I have a tip for you.. to separate the screens that you sieve through.. cut 5 gallon buckets to stretch them across nice and tight.. it'll make scooping your Bubble that much easier ! i learned this from the many "Frenchy" videos I have watched :) Picture 35 Here in lays the problem for most people.. drying your hash without loosing vast amounts of "Terpenes" whilst also stay ever vigilant against mold ! Thanks to all those videos I've watched on youtube.. id like to think this was one of my most successful parts of this process.. Things to Note; Terpenes start to seriously evaporate at temperatures 68F or 20C you need to stay as cold as possible whilst bringing the Relative Humidity in the space down into the 40-30% to stay away from that nasty mold ! I used my cold storage room in the basement.. with a dehumidifier running to keep the space at 45% RH & staying at a constant 15c. All while spreading the hash as thin as possible across parchment paper, on top of the white screens with a fan moving air across both sides of the paper. Pictures 36-38 These are some macros i took in the middle of my drying session I fell in love with the colour. Yes i know the black spots are plant material but they will get caught when i bag the hash & squish the oil out. Thing to Note; at this stage it is important to ensure you 'micro plane" the hash down as fine as you can whilst staying weary of the temperature... any "chunks" will hold pockets of moisture.. that lead to potential problems..ie; mold ... Picture/Video 39-41 Successfully planed bubble hash ready to be bagged and Squished ! Picture 42 Ive decided to follow Pedro.. from Pedros Grow Room and double bag to be on the safe side so i don't have any blow outs. So thats One 25u bag inside one 160u bag ! :) Pictures 43 This is almost 3 grams of the bubble hash from above, already melting in the bag.. this is where i ran into trouble again lol things started getting to warm in the house and i was only able to get one of the three squish's i did on video :( things started getting sticky. Picture 44 This is basically just a photo of the equipment I'm using; 3x5 LowTemp Cage in the frame I built myself, with a 20Ton bottle jack. Something to note here is this is an older Lowtemp model with only a single heating zone which is which i have it closed here heating Both sides of the press :) As well as the importance of having adequate pressure on your plates.. my rig is very overkill for the size of hash bags..lol Video 45 Here is the lovely press video.. its didn't quite work the way i wanted either lol my directional folding wasn't quite tight enough for a big "drip" :) &the Press was set to 65°c Photo's 46-50 are pretty self explanatory :) I had a blow out.. but still managed to pull an 80% return from the hash once squished...& yes it tasted amazing :) Was it worth it in the end... that could be debated.. for some..i understand..its not your thing, but for those of us that are interested in making our own concentrates.. free from Solvents... I wouldn't make it any other way :) If even ONE of you reading this diary finds it helpful to reference for ANYTHING.....even if its "what not to do" ill consider it a success ! Thanks again for tagging along on this garden adventure.. its been one heck of a journey ! Much Love from B.C. Canada, Until Next time, Cariboo

Dropped the seeds in water in the afternoon, the day before yesterday. I just put them in the pots about an hour ago. I am growing 4 in a 4X4. All the seeds were split and showing just a bit of the root. I mixed about a teaspoon of Azos with the soil just where the seeds are, in the center of the pots. I mixed it into a depth of about 3 inches. I am misting with PH (6.4) adjusted water. Will grab some pics when the girls come up. It should just be a couple of days. Update for the week. It's early morning on the 9th, 5 days since planting. All 4 of these Fastberrys were up within 48 hours of going into the ground. They popped within 12 hours of each other. They have now been up for 2 days and are looking good. Still misting with just PH (6.4) adjusted water. I will mist for a couple more days and then start real watering. The first watering will include Mykos WP to help with root growth. So far off to a good start!

3/4/24-Here we are with the ladies goin to their second week. Yay baby flowers 💚 Have a few things going on. I apparently suck at the trellis thing lol. At flower they were all pretty even..I would tuck a few stragglers that got taller under. They’ve went crazy now and I don’t really have anywhere to tuck them other than away from the lights which I don’t wanna do. There was some discoloration on the tips of leaves which I assumed was light or nutrient related, so I dimmed lights a bit and checked the runoff water. Omg. It was wayyyyy too acidic. Like high 4’s low 5. Some leaves also appear to be showing magnesium deficiency.. which I assume is because of the crazy acidity. I’m giving dechlorinated tap water (no normal nutes) without phing it because it’s very alkaline. Hoping it will bring things back up. Oh, I sprinkled epsom salt on the soil before watering. (Magnesium) Really crossing my fingers that I am doing the right things and don’t screw this up! These ladies still look really good to me considering.. but only time will tell. Update: pretty sure I had nitrogen toxicity and too much salt buildup in the soil. In the meantime got what seemed to be magnesium deficiency. I’ve been giving only water with some epsom salt and the girls seems much happier. Hopefully Krisis averted 😂

A few changes this week: Co2 tank added providing 600-800ppm 18 hours a day ( first time I have ever supplemented Co2) 2 x HLG Quantum boards added to provide light coverage to bud sites Temps have ranged from 24-27 Celsius. 0.25 Litres per day for each plant Both the Epsilon and Atlas continue to impress, they are being pushed pretty hard now, with light intensity and bloom feed operating at optimum levels. I look forward to seeing their progress.

Missed a week because spider mites entered the party but we were quicker to act and shut the show down, lucky timing to say the least... dried the flower out in a cardboard box linked upto the bay6 grow tent. Took 7 days to dry properly since I left it in the tent beforehand for 6 days with no water... had a whopping weigh in at 180 grams!! Was shocked to say the least, as it was my first grow personally (but I have watched and cut with other people's grows).. all in jars burping process now. The banana smell is massively overpowering. I can't wait until its fully cured as it's only going get more potent..

So my sacrificial CF3 clone is in flower. I'm spraying her with silver now. The change is 3 weeks away. I have transplanted 9 of the 10 Citrus Farmer S1 tester's in some shitty soil. That's right miracle grow soil... with extra perlite. Because that is what a normal person would do, shop home depot and buy some soil. So let's see how this works out. #5 was chosen to be different. They all are similar all have had thrips and a fucked up regimen. All look like mom (CF3) too similar. But that is a good thing. I will decide who gets pollinated from here... #5 will get pollinated. The last few pics are of 2 CF3 clones I have going for fresh personal flower. They are starting to look nice.

Gave her an xtreme gardening tea with Be1 and Be2 added. Also threw in some seafuel from bloom yellow. The plant is looking amazing and is blowing up like crazy. Everyday I notice more growth. And I just got a new light that should be here today so I'm super stoked. The cover crop is a pain in the ass but growing this with fungus and microbes in the pot is amazing and the plant loves it. Next round I'll buy a bigger pot and amend the soil so I'll be more set flower without adding so much in teas and waterings. This is my learning run. And all is good ✌️.

***** Week 12 growth - February 20 to 26, 2021 - Week 3 Flower ***** This girl has been happy all week and praying hard.....she’s just a shorter girl😂 However, she had a god growth week and her top cola is reaching up tall and proud! Another sign that she just needed more Veg time for consistency across the canopy is all. She was fed some fulvic acid on Monday to encourage stretch through Gold Storm at 5ml/L🤞 Her tricombs have come on strong as well at the end of the week. Her buds are not that large yet but she seems to feel to almost be 5 or 7 days behind the other girls??? She was stripped of a number of leaves, a couple of lower branches and bud sites this week. She has some good internode spacing and it’s allowing some more light down lower. Thinking she is going to be more of nugs rather than colas? Here leaves are up hard so hard that the increase in light intensity at the end of the week will only benefit this girl given her distance from the light. Light is at 20” and pulling 480 watts at the end of the week. Stated off with 400 watts at the start of the week but keep pushing it up this week. I don’t want to break 1,000 to 1,100 PAR by very much as I am not supplementing with true CO2. I have an Exhale bag to raise it a couple hundred ppm. Feel the need to keep the intensity high for penetration lower in the canopy. Will lower the amount of time in daylight if stress gets too high. Push to 11/13???? Nutrients are following IPP HOG 3 Part pretty closely. Just playing with macro nutrient ratios but otherwise supplements are at full week dosages following week 3. Have been seeing great resin production last runs so staying with Rezin as part of their feed schedule in flower. Terpinator......I think I see a lot of sulfer benefit here so it stays in the grows as well. Recharge seems to be working out well but we did the change mid grow from Microbial Mass. Since in coco have to feed the microbes so they reproduce and really dig Nature’s Candy with Remos additives in there👍 To help keep the root zone clean we add Enzymes😃 I have been debating a lot lately about the addition of CalMag to these nutrient lines and it’s necessity but since in coco I keep adding some......noticed a couple of spots on MM2 so have added it back in a bit more this week. Little more detail....... Feb 20/21 - Day 15 - Full feed today.....it’s been five days. - tap water with Silica @ 1.5ml, IPP line at full strength. - 1400ppm and 6.1pH - This girl was given some fulvic acid in Gold Storm. Help with giving her a chance to reach higher. - 5ml/L added to feed for 1490ppm and 6.1pH - help her grow taller. Feb 21/21 - Day16 - Dry out day Feb 22/21 - Day 17 - watering with supplements and light feed today. We are in mid flower now.....need to keep the macro nutrients up. - Epsom salts @ 1 Tbsp in 20L. Purple on stems is getting prominent......could be cold temps but also giving magnesium. - Terpinator @ 3ml, Rezin @ 1.5ml, Nature’s Candy @ 1ml, grow @ 1ml, micro @ 2ml, bloom @ 2.5ml, Recharge @ 1 Tbsp in 20L. - 1400ppm and 6.0pH. - 4L Feb 23/21 - Day 18 - keeping up the silica this watering - silica @ 1ml, CalMag @ 1ml, Ultimate B+ @ 1ml - 600ppm and 6.0pH - 3L Little to no runoff this watering. Feb 24/21 - Day 19 - full feed again today.....girls are big and growing hard......keep it going💪 - IPP line as listed for full line. - Terpinator @ 3ml, Rezin @ 1.5ml - 1425ppm and 6.0pH - they are taking the high ppm feeding well. Feb 25/21 - Day 20 - Had some feed water left from yesterday. Added plain tap water to get 20L. - 810ppm and 6.1pH - 1.5L......don’t want to over saturate the medium. Feb 26/21 - Day 21 - Nothing today. - Will feed early tomorrow as it’s Saturday. - Let the root zone get some oxygen is my thought and water to nice runoff first thing in morning. Week 3 behind us and going into 4.....middle of flower and girls are feeding hard. Pushing the lights hard now as well so need to keep the ppm up👍 Looking good ETS....she has reached up there and doing very well😎

Me encontre con un par de cogollos afectados de Botytris en las Psicodelicias, y opte por cortarlas. De todos modos ya estaban casi listas, asi que no ha sido mayor problema. Pero hago notar que las Psicodelicias son propensas al moho (mis otras cinco plantas, cultivadas en identicas condiciones, no mostraron ningun sintoma). El rinde seguro va a ser muy bueno, ya les cuento cuando lo pese en seco. El olor de la Psicoldelcia en verde es muy caracteristico. No “huele rico” para nada, ni huele a nada conocido. Pero si es un olor muy propio que se recurda siempre. Yo la habia cultivado hace cuatro años y olia igual. Es una variedad super estabilizada, da plantas muy similares entre si, lo cual habla bien de Sweet Seeds. Saludos!
