Thank you. Growing cannabis is an art that seems to evolve as you learn it. While it may only take a little knowledge to get started, It seems that this may take a life-time to perfect (doubt I'll ever make that category, but I will certainly try). So thank-you to the community that Shares, Comments, Follows, and Likes. Your efforts in any of these actions make these journals a worth-while and perfect way for us all to learn and track our efforts. I personally appreciate it. Also a huge Thanks has to go out to Grow Diaries for making this community even possible. Your efforts to supply the data storage alone is more than enough, but you the fact that you dont stop there and constantly try to improve the experience even more makes this my favorite community to to share on. And then lastly, but certainly not least, a heartfelt Thank-you to Royal Queen Seeds for your branding/research while making these seeds available to people like me. It gives me confidence in knowing that I am working with great genetics before I even start my grow. ---------------------------- Germination Start and incubation period 3/12/24 to 3/26/24 Transfer Day to Veg Day 6 3/27 to 4/2 Germination: First note was about the appearance of the seeds. They were smaller than I am used to seeing, but no damage or deformities and look to be in good shape. Germination took 14 days from dropping in water to transplanting into 1 gallon pots. 23hours in a glass of 6.3ph room temp RO water. 2 cracked open a little and I placed them both in paper towels wet with the glass water and pasted to the sides of the glass for 2 days then checked, no progress. So I freshened the water then waited another 2 days and checked, little to no progress. Then checked again 1 day later and finally was able to move them. One looked fully ready and the other seemed less ready. I placed in rapid rooter pods and closed with toothpick tips. 1 popped out of the pods in 1 day but the other did not. So I gave it 1 more day and started my spare seed. After 4 days of water and towels I replaced the dead pod with a growing sprout. Transplant occurred on 3/27 Veg Day 0 to 6 1gal hard tall pots. Transplant went well. The sprouts are smaller than I would like and seem to be stubborn in growth to start but hoping htat changes with soil. One pod was overgrown in the pods and Im hoping it doesn't reflect in the overall plant production. Video: Transplant ease. Transplant to 1 gal pots: I am using a 50/50, 50%perlite/50%soil with a .5lb of dolomite lime and a .5ml of flora micro added to .5 gallon of RO water (Im mixing 2 gallons of soil total so the water to soil ratio is 1/4 of the total medium volume) to achieve a soil tested ph of 6.4. I am using a 50/50 soil/perlite mix because I plan to use these in auto pots. I also used about 1 cup of the same soil mix water to pour around the plant after transplant; you can see how the perlite rises to the top where I did this. I sprayed two domes and covered - I plan to leave covered for the first week. Feed: I kept them under the domes and sprayed every day that I didnt feed them, to keep humidity up while I let them find water in the soil. By the end of the week I took the domes off and took pictures. Feed this week was another 1 cup of 6.3ph water 5 days after transplant. Feed plan next week will increase the amount to 2 cups of plain-no-nute water with about 4 days between feeds. I want to see the water run through so if I need to use more than 2 cups I will. The idea is to water deep and through, but then make them search for more before the next feed, hopefully spreading the roots out while doing it. Veg Plan: I plan on 8 colas for each plant. So that will be 3 topping days and a total of 7 cuts. I will want to cut the first time on day 21 if I have 5+ nodes. I will transfer to 5 gallon auto pots with-in 1 week of the first topping. Once I have 3 nodes of new growth past the first topping, I will top those two branches to the first node again. (that's 3 cuts total by this point) Then, after 3 new nodes of growth after that, I will do a last topping on the 4 branches. (4 new cuts added to make a total of 7 cuts and 8 colas) I will train the branches using LST/HST with tie downs as soon as I can after the first topping day to help maintain the branches growing where I want them to. I will also introduce an adjustable tomato ring after they have settled into the 5 gallon forever pots to provide support and mobility Hopefully all goes well, and I will have 1 to 2 weeks of growth before flip after week 8. I think it sounds more ambitious than it really is, but if you follow this journal, we will see together.

Status: Mid-Flower (Week 7 of Flowering) Water & Feeding: The girls are extremely thirsty, drinking between 1 to 3 liters of fresh water daily per bucket. Metabolism is at its peak. Nutrient Stats: Maintaining a stable pH of 5.8. The concentration (PPM) is hovering around 900–1000, occasionally spiking slightly higher as they feed. Boosters: Heavily utilizing PK boosters to ensure maximum bud density and weight. Climate Management: Temperatures during this week averaged around 28°C, with occasional peaks hitting 30°C. Humidity is strictly managed by a heavy-duty 50L dehumidifier to prevent any moisture issues. Grower’s Note: The buds are noticeably solidifying. The Church and Wonder Pie are stacking weight, and the frost is becoming intense.

Good morning, today is officially say one of flower, I flipped last Saturday so these girls took their time transitioning. Took a full 8 days as just this morning I noticed just a few pistils, I don’t count the transition as flowering days. As usual I continued my every other watering of fish shit rotated with silica and they are still getting a full gallon each girl per watering. I’m trying something new since the organic nutes take time to work in, rather than top dressing every 4 weeks as Gaia suggests I’m doing half doses hi weekly so last week they got 3 tbsp of all purpose and 2 of power bloom. In two weeks they will probably get the same then the one after that all power bloom . They stretched a lot the first week as you can see in the time lapse so I’ll clean them up again in a week or two after the stretch is over eliminating and branches that don’t keep up to the top canopy and I’ll probably keep the top 5 nodes of each top depending on structure after the stretch. Thanks for reading and see ya next week

Otra vez familia e vuelto actualizar las do sweet dos , que menudos ejemplares que ganas hay de verlas madurando 😂. Hubo problemas menores medioambientales, a raíz de ello sufrí hermafroditismo en muchos ejemplares, los cuales se eliminaron todos los posibles plátanos. Por lo demás todo genial solo ese fallo el cual en un futuro no pasará mas. . La humedad esta al 45% la temperatura está entre 21/25 grados , y como siempre el ph , ya que es de lo más importante,está en 5,8/6,0. . AgroBeta: 1 ml x L Flowering black line , vía radicular. 0,2 ml x L Beta shark, vía radicular. 0,3 ml x L Tucán , vía radicular. 0,1 ml x L Betazyme, vía radicular. 0,05 ml x L Gold Joker, vía radicular. 0,2 ml x L Silver, vía radicular. . Hasta aquí todo familia 🕸️ , un saludo y buenos humos fumetillas💨💨💨.

You say My plants is good or not?

Getting stronger and sturdier the bud sites will be very plentiful

🌸 Final Cure & Smoke Report Sticky Broccoli Feminized After 12 days of controlled drying and an additional 2 weeks of curing, Sticky Broccoli has fully revealed its final character. The flowers were dried under stable environmental conditions and cured in Terploc Grove Bags at 19°C, allowing the terpene profile and overall flower quality to develop exceptionally well. 👀 Appearance & Bag Appeal One of the most striking features of Sticky Broccoli is its visual appeal. The flowers display: -Dense and well structured buds -Heavy trichome coverage -Beautiful green grey and slightly bluish coloration -Vibrant deep red pistils tightly wrapped around the flowers The contrast between the frosted buds and the intense red pistils creates outstanding bag appeal and gives the flowers a premium appearance. The SCROG training throughout the grow cycle clearly paid off. Aside from a small amount of popcorn buds (approximately 33g), the harvest consisted almost entirely of large, uniform flowers with excellent structure and consistency (Total 318g). 👃 Aroma & Flavor The aroma closely reflects what was observed during late flowering. Sweet candy like notes dominate the profile, accompanied by creamy dessert characteristics and fruity undertones reminiscent of Gelato and Zkittlez type cultivars. After curing, additional depth emerged, introducing a slightly sharper and more complex edge to the bouquet. The flavor translates remarkably well from aroma to smoke, delivering: -Sweet fruity notes on the inhale -Creamy dessert-like undertones -A noticeable gassy and slightly plant-forward finish on the exhale The combination creates a rich and enjoyable smoking experience with multiple layers of flavor. ✨ Overall Impression Sticky Broccoli proved to be an exceptionally rewarding cultivar from seed to cure. The strain combined: - Excellent genetic stability - Strong training response - Heavy resin production - Attractive coloration - Dense flower structure - Complex terpene expression From cultivation to the final cured product, the entire process remained consistent, predictable, and highly satisfying. The final result is a harvest with impressive visual appeal, strong aroma, enjoyable flavor, and flower quality that fully reflects the effort invested throughout the grow cycle. A cultivar that successfully delivered on every stage of the journey.

As above, definitely the weaker Linda Seeds one (out of 5) but that's down to the weather - and not being able to control it like you would indoors.

Wow I had my led way to close at 22" should have been 34" but live and learn . They were also a little river watered but I've fixed those issues and given the girl fresh water then a nutrient feed and foiler spray. Very excited to see what next week bring in living the genetics resilient already is great ..besides that not much to say but have a great week canna family ...

Finalizamos la quinta semana de floración de manera extraordinaria 💯🏆

Soo this week has been “fine” . Humidity is under control finally , the humidifiers seemingly have gotten the environment in check . I noticed “it works more efficiently” if I leave a small amount of water in the reservoir as opposed to how long it takes humidity to drop after watering with the reservoir bone dry after emptying . I see that the top dress food still isn’t reaching the girls yet there’s more progressive lower leaf yellowing . I thought it’s take no more than a week for the waterings to render the amendments effective. Seeing this I’ll surely give the girls their pre flowering feed much sooner . I’m planning for 4 weeks so that by week 6(WISHFUL THINKING) the food will be accessible to the girls . Vertical growth this week has been decent , I was worrying quietly on the inside that I’d end up with nuggets on the lateral branches I’ve worked so hard to grow & constantly train. I want to see 12 in long dense solid resinous continuous colas on these girls . Anyways I think that’s it, another week on the GreeneScene in the books 📚.

Week 4 Day 3 Veg Only been 5 days since last post but I think Im going to flip these tomorrow I reckon they should fill out in first 2 weeks of flower. Really want to avoid a jungle given how close they all are to each other. All very healthy. One plant more on the LED side which makes it more filled out but tbf the plants on that side are much more vigouros, thicker stems and broader leaves etc. LED is controversial in bloom but in veg it kicks halide and florescent ass. Should I pull the net in tight and flip or what fam?

Today is day 72 from seed!! This week went real well , 2 of the Forbiddin Runtz have been getting flushed an the rest will also start flush through this next week, I can’t believe the smell of this combo strain,, super fruity smelling an all are super sticky!! Stay tuned for next week yall !

Going great

Drip ring system cobbled together for fertigation.

What a beautiful strain ❤️ the final weeks such a frosty buds. Didn't grew so tall because of the low stress training but grew very dense and thick 💪 So happy with them.
