Flowering Week 25: Structural Support & Purple Progress Update: 29.08.2025 | Day 17 Hey Growmies, Week 25 brought some clarity – and a little intervention. Remember those yellow leaves up top I mentioned last week? Lower leaves were totally fine, so I knew it wasn’t nitrogen. I posted pics and you guys came through – most of you called it: lack of potassium and phosphorus. So, I did something I rarely do: gave the ladies a mild dose of mineral fertilizer. Mixed a 2L bottle with normal dosage into a 10L watering can filled with rainwater, then split it evenly between both plants. It felt like a small gamble, but sometimes you gotta trust the process – and the community. I didn't want to spend money on organic fertilizers as long as the Tripart bottles are still full from last year. Biggest lesson this year? My compost needs more power. Next season, I’m amping it up with extra horse or pigeon manure to keep those nutrients steady deeper into flower. Strain Check Durban Poison: This girl’s gettin’ heavy. I’m constantly tying branches to my support structure to keep ‘em from snapping. She’s bulking up nicely, and the colors keep deepening into that gorgeous purple she’s becoming known for. The smell? Still pretty moderate – not overpowering yet, which is kinda surprising. Still not seeing much resin on the sugar leaves, but she’s a beauty through and through. Blueberry: She’s still reaching for the sky – definitely wants to be the tallest girl in the garden. Bud sites are becoming more defined now, and she’s slowly starting to form proper buds. Her colors are even more striking than Durban’s, deep and vibrant. Still no real smell to speak of, though. I’m thinking she’ll need until at least the first week of October to fully finish up. Next Steps - Keep a close eye on how they respond to the mild dose of mineral fertilizer - Stay vigilant for pests – especially as buds develop further - Check daily for branches that need extra support and tie them up as needed That’s it for this week, folks. Catch y’all next time. – Smoking_Joe_Frazier

7/6 Lion Claw is growing like crazy. I've been really impressed with this strain so far. Both plants just started showing sex, and they both ended up being females! Top Dressed both Lion Claw plants to ensure they have plenty of fuel for flowering. 7/7 17" tall this morning. Such a vigorous monster.

5 juli en ze is aan haar einde gekomen, ze hangt nu aan de waslijn Heerlijke dikke buds met een heerlijke geur. Deze strain zal ik zeker nogmaals kweken. Bedankt James voor de mogelijkheid 👌🏽❤️ Ze zal ongeveer 2 weken nodig hebben om te drogen. Hierna zal ik de buds wegen en in potten doen. Uiteraard volgt er dan ook nog een smokereport en meer foto's

This is the final week, they are going to be chopped coming week. Already had some darkness and they are very very smelly. I am amazed at this strain's resilience. It had to deal with my noobishness with autos, heat, very hot soil and less PH buffering with my own super soil recipe (see the yellow image in the germination page) in the smaller bags. Still, they became huge and full of bud. Forbidden Runtz is an amazing strain. Very strong growth but also with most auto's I've grown: once the grow derails, it seldom recovers. But these do. I'm sure next grows I'm going to get even more out of them. Can't wait to try them again with what I've learned now. And you should all consider the SP-3000 as a growlight, look at my results! I will update when I've harvested, thanks for visiting!! Don't forget to check out the special spring discounts on www.mars-hydro.com Big hug Bud

Original sensible seeds Girl scout coookies 27th Jan 2020 No preflowers on her that I can spot , but she is starting to stretch a little. She is a funny structured plant . Has long branches but doesn't seem to have a lot of foliar coverage. It almost has a skeletonal look to it . But if those branches form into buds I dont really care how she looks to be honest. Stem rubbing releases a very pungeant aroma that gives me hope of some Good Shit coming . This week I decided to give her the same cup full of Bud and bloom soil amendment as the already flowering girls received as I'm sure it won't be too far behind them. I also gave her some of the High tea i brewed up for 24hours. Checked Ph with the bluelab soil probe and it's still sitting on 6.5 so no worries there. Thanks for checking in on my update Catch ya next week. 👍

El cultivo a sido muy agradecido. Una cepa bastante agradecida y nada dificil de cultivar. La produccion es bastante alta y la calidad fuera de serie si te gusta el sabor caracteristico de la gorila glue esta es tu cepa. Si la cultivas en la fase avanzada de floracion tu indoor sera un mar de colores morados y rosas... Sin ninguna duda de las cepas mas bonitas que e cultivado. Os animo a probarla y uniros a la familia BSF NOS FUIMOS!

Bienvenidos cultivadores de marihuana! 🖐️ 👨‍🌾 - 21 semanas desde que puse la semilla a germinar! 🌱 - 19 semanas desde el trasplante a la maceta final. - 17 semanas desde el corte apical - 13 semanas desde el cambio a horario de floración a 12/12H. - 12 semanas desde que comenzó la floración... 3M 🍨 Green Gelato RIP *08/09/25 †29/01/26 "Tus padres orgullosos: Sunset Sherbet x Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies" ========================== Hoy, después de las 12 horas en la carpa de cultivo, saqué la planta al frío del exterior durante unas horas, después, al medio día la saqueé sin contemplaciones. Esta temporada casi todos los cultivos han mostrado crecimiento en modo foxtail. La gran diferencia con otros años ha sido el aumento a 13 horas de luz en las últimas semanas. Probablemente ahí esté el error. Lo pienso ahora, claro, cuando ya es tarde, como hacen los humanos. Lo lógico habría sido justo lo contrario: empezar la floración con 13 horas y terminarla con 12, acompañando de forma más natural el ciclo vital de la planta. No tengo nada en contra de las colas de zorro, pero verlas repetidas en cultivos tan distintos me dejó claro algo importante: las plantas, incluso a esta edad, todavía tenían ganas de seguir creando flores. Eso es bueno. Retrasa la senescencia, mantiene la energía… aunque también retrasa la maduración de los cogollos. Todo tiene su precio. Incluso la vitalidad. La próxima temporada volveré a probar. Ajustaré mejor el fotoperiodo. Bajaré un poco la intensidad lumínica en las últimas semanas. Porque aquí nadie lo sabe todo, y el jardín siempre acaba enseñándome algo, normalmente cuando ya no puedes cambiarlo. 😁 HASTA LA PRÓXIMA. SALUD Y SALUDOS PARA TODOS! ============================== GREEN GELATO (Royal Queen Seeds) "Las semillas de marihuana Green Gelato, ganadoras de la Soft Secrets Cup, fueron creadas en honor al mismísimo Larry Bird." - Genética: Sunset Sherbet x Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies - Sativa 45% Indica 55% - Tiempo de Floración: 8.10 Semanas - 500 - 700 G/M2 - THC: 27% https://www.royalqueenseeds.es/semillas-feminizadas-de-marihuana/416-green-gelato.html ==============================

The girls are fully in flower this week which of course is a GREAT sight to see when opening the tent. The smell in the tent is so sweet and fruity it's already making your mouth water!! So this week I feed the girls with a little of the living soil veg so they are still getting a helping hand. They were also given the living soil bloom and some barley which I will admit is the first time using it but so far me plus the girls are very much enjoying!! I have done the necessary light de-foliating on all 4 girls over the past 2 weeks and more LST. Happy toking guys and girls!! Will keep you all posted with more videos through the week so please keep checking back 🙂

She’s really swelling up. Buds are all with white tric heads but minimal amber. Going for that 15-20%. Pretty late in flower.

And another week has passed, they are bigger but didn't do the growing I expected them to do. I think something stressed them for a couple of days, where the XL Runtz took the stressing factors a bit better. I'm trying to find out what it could have been and preventatively softened the light, lowered temps and it seemed to recover. Maybe I pushed the SP-3000 by Mars Hydro a bit too hard... We also had some white pointy bits... With a lot of trust in this growing method, after the previous grows, and the plants look overall happy I'm not too worried. The soil will balance out if just don't push the lights too hard. It's a matter of adjusting and finding sweet spots and limits. So I started bending a little and this week will bend over the tops, to further the LST which is about the only thing ill do and maybe some defoliation after 3rd week of flower.... Thank you for checking out my diary again!

Didn’t get too many pictures this time but they’re really starting to pack on resin now. They smell so good. Everything is going smoothly. Just gave them a flush with some SLF and Herculean Harvest. Runoff is already pretty significantly low. They’ll be getting the same flush again in a few days and then plain PH balanced water until they get chopped down. Planning on them fading super hard from this point on. All the buds are super dense. Can’t wait to try some sooner than later.

The screen is almost full :D, Today is the first 12/12 day, everythings seems to be OK, some leafs are yellow on the edge, but i guess it was because pH was fluctuating a lot. New leaf are ok, so i am not worry about that. See you next week for update ;) Edit : i add some temperature screenshot, we can notice when i change the water ^^^today for with new nutrient and yesterday to clean root and tank with FloraKleen ( 20ml for 10L ) Edit : 8/11 cut many leafs to expose buds to light

left the girls to settle into their new environment. Have been watering every 4 days or so, not much rain this week. Plants are looking good and showing some signs of leaf growth which means the roots have already branched out. Chitosal as a root drench is supposed to help with drought tolerance and salt stress, no salt stress here as we are organic. Next week things to do: 1) spread and re-stake plants. 2) create a top amendment feeding and watering bowl under each plant with some chicken wire.

Day 36. Still no feed.... Again, difference in size growing many autos is HUGE pain. One Northern Lights is smallest plant I ever grew, I doubt I would I achieved it with loads of LST ;))) Will try to lift that midget a bit ... Some flower, some not, Diesels are still the only strain I would grew, but most probably not once ;))) they look amazing !!! 10 out of 10 ! Green Crack still the obvious looser at the moment and is still mostly in veg ... Next watering will be full of goodies for them !!! Couple leaves off here and there, couple branches cropped or repositioned, still waiting for stretch to be over before installing some support. Day 37. One more girl took SuperCroping like champ and at the moment has very even canopy. All garden looks fine, hope feed won't spoil that joy ;))) Day 40. Girls still on water, but during every two days, so it's again pain ... Whatever pot size I take - girls start to go faster, than my laziness wants :))) Cleared bottoms of first row, next watering will clear other 5, just want to see are they ok. Some strains hates any job done to them and stops developing.... Would be stupid to slow them down in final stretch ... Happy Growing !!!
