Here we are again! Flower Switch happened on Day 37, so in the middle of week 6, but for simplicity, i will condense the last Days of Veg into this here week 6. So a few days are missing from the final week count as i want to keep flowering weeks seperated from weg. Just keep in mind that she's about 3 days older then the week here would suggest. Its the end of the first flowering week and we can already spot lots of pistils, and the tops are getting ready to bud up! I defoliated her once before the flip and once on Day 43 because im scissor happy. Also, she was getting REALLY bushy, as you can see on the timelapse. Feeding is still the same 6L, around 6.0 PH, 5ml/L Grow and 1ml/L powerrots, will keep that going as long as shes stretching, then ill switch to flower nutes. Happens now every 3 days, though i suspect that it might be every 2 days soon, she is getting hungry. Pot is already somewhat light again and i watered her yesterday at the time of writing 😱😮

Mulberry Day 42 All is well. This little girl has been in stretch and now stands 38 inches tall.up until now she has been a pretty standard grow with no major issues. Using coco nutrients in soil so dosing has been a challenge. Now that we’ve come out of stretch I will start a pk13/14 regiment as I have found with autoflowers that is when they start looking for those extra flowering nutrients. Only growing the one plant anticipating the size was a good idea. *** Day 44 *** Trichomes!!! Covering everything!!! ***Day 46 *** All is NOT well today!!! Some leaves are displaying some sort of strange texture and color. Need to figure it out fast!!! Will do some research and maybe ask grow diaries a question. So thinking it’s a deficiency of some sort the plan is to water with extra calmag and a dose of nutrients with added pk13/14. Fingers crossed! ***Day 47 *** Better. She responded overnight positively to the watering and related issues. Will repeat at the next watering. 5 ml calmag. 1 tbsp coco A&B. 1 tbsp pk13/14 Ph 6.2

March 10 - 17, 2025 Lots of activity and growth in the tent this week. After resolving two run away events with the Blumat system and the carrots in Anastasia and Carol Anne that I think are finally resolved. Anastasia’s moisture curve is between 90 - 110 mbar. And the other two are also stable. They are going through about 1/4 of a gravity feed 5 gallon bucket mounted 5 ft above the soil and outside the tent for easy access. I am now mixing a bucket batch with 2.5 gallons of plain RO water ph leveled to 5.8 with an average temperature in the low 60 degrees. I am still using the 10 part - General Hydroponic nutrient line feed chart on week 4+ moderate feed and am mixing into two gallons on RO water with an average temperature of 60ish. Using the following nutrients in the exact order which is important to follow to avoid mixing issues. 2 gallons fresh Reverse Osmosis filtered water with a base zero EC level. Silica = 5ml Calmag = about 4ml General Hydroponics Flora Series 3 part nutrients: FloraMicro = about 11ml FloraGro = about 14ml FloraBloom = about 8ml Additives: - General Hydroponics FloraBlend = a out 10ml - General Hydroponics Floralicious Plus = 3ml - House & Garden HGDPC002 Drip Clean = 8ml Last step is to level ph to 5.8 My nutrient batch ends up at 5.8 ph with an EC level of 2.0 at about 60 degrees f. I then pour the 2 gallon nutrient mix into the 2.5 gallons of plain RO water to dilute the solution per sustainable village blumat system recommendations. The final batch usually requires a final ph spot check and minor adjustments. So far the planned schedule based on a current 4 day depletion rate will be to start with s fresh mixed batch as mentioned above. When the bucket level reaches 3/4 empty i replenish the bucket to 1/2 full using plain RO water ph leveled to 5.8. Then top off the bucket with another 2 gallons of nutrient rich mix as mentioned above. This increases the EC level to about 1.25. Then on the second reservoir depletion I will let the bucket drain to close to the empty level without letting it go dry. After the 2nd replenishment is almost gone i will do a 3 gallon hand watering with a mix of Real Growers Recharge - Mycorrhizae Instant Compost Tea/Soil Microbes mixed into each 1 gallon poured into each pot. This achieves 3 things, the first are the obvious benefits of better nutrient intake. It also allows for a good drain to waste to help flush salt buildups. Lastly it saturates the pot moisture levels down to the low 70-80mbar range and essentially temporarily deactivates the blumat system and prolongs the call for water and nutrients from the reservoir for an extra 12-24 hours until the pots dry out to the blumat carrots calibrated settings of about 110-120 mbar. I will have to adjust as I switch to flower but overall, now that the blumat system is dialed in and I understand it better I find tat it is very effective at keeping the tent environment more stable ad efficient. The plants seem happy as shit and maintain Ing a reservoir with a bi weekly hand watering flush is so much better than my old ways of mixing 2-3 gallon nutrient batches and hand watering/feeding and dry vacuuming it all up every two days is way better and less wastefull and more sustainable. So far It appears it was worth the investment and the test of my time and patience. The week was also full of a few defoliation snd lollipoping with plenty of scrog net low stress training to continue to fill out the canopy. Drizzella (right) is still stealing the show and dominating her presence in the tent with 30-40 potential cola points. Anastasia (left) is smaller than her sister but is responding well to all the LST and defoliation. DD he has significantly less potential cola points, but her fan leaves are larger but also softer or more silky feeling. Carol Anne (middle) continues to be a short stubborn and mesmerizing cultivar. She resembles a head of lettuce and is so strikingly different than her two cousins. I rounded out the week with continued VPD monitoring to maintain about 1 kpa with an average leaf temp offset of -3 degrees. I then pulled the Vivosun Aerolight 150SE led light from my smaller and currently dormant 3x3 tent and installed it in the 3x5 tent. Even though the AC infinity Ionboard is doing the job on its own. I added the second light for better light distribution across the tent as I was getting good DLi levels in the 30s in the middle of the tent but it tapered off to low 20s near the walls. After adding the second light I am now achieving PPFD rates of 500-600 and DLI levels in the low 30s from wall to wall and i think it will make a good impact on growth and a more efficient tent environment as The added circulation from the built in fan on the light, as well as increased heat generated from the lights is demanding less from the heaters.

I grew two plants of the FFT1 testers. I started them indoors in the spring during COVID19 lock down. The germination date was the week of March 25, 2020. I didn't start the grow diary at that time because I was having a really hard time coping with the COVID19 non-sense and I wasn't sure I was completely committed to properly documenting the grow. In the end, I think this grow helped me cope... ha! So I topped one FFT1 plant, and let the other grow 'native' with no interventions at all. Both were grown totally organically with no added nutrients. We moved the plants outside on May 1, 2020 into our home made greenhouse/trellis. I took a few photos but I was still not committed to documenting the grow. I wasn't even sure if the plants would grow well considering I hadn't provided them with any nutrients at all. In fact I felt like I was neglectful of the ladies LOL. It became clear to me by June that these plants were gonna take off... they were growing like mad! I realized that I really HAD to share what was going on in my back yard. Also, I had made the commitment to FastBuds, and I was sure they would want to see the plants. I started this journal as soon as they started the first signs of flowering. By the time the stretch was done Big Mama (my first FFT1 plant) was an insane monster at 10 feet fall. Little Sister (the second FFT1 plant) was a solid 7 feet tall. Big Mama had been topped and mainlined and holy cow she was HUGE with eight main colas. Little Sister had not been topped and she was less than half the size. The buds were beautiful as you can see from the photos. They weren't super fat, and they weren't super frosty, but they were like piles of spaghetti noodles with beautiful streaks of amber. There were bud sites ALL OVER. Near the end of the grow, as the buds were 99% ripe I started to see small spots of bud rot in Big Mama. That's when I pulled the trigger and started the harvest. COVID19 put a real damper on our harvest party, but we were able to call in a few friends from our 'bubble.' Big Mama's wet yield was around 2600g and Little Sister offered 1300g. I was totally astonished. I have to LOL any time I look at the numbers LOL. We trimmed all of Big Mama by hand, but lost our steam for Little Sister. Her trim was rough, and we will have to use our Trimbag to clear off some of the foilage... I adjusted my dry weight numbers to accommodate for this. We dried them in the mesh tiered dry racks for the first few days and then moved them into large paper bags. They are not quite as dry as I think they should be, and so I have adjusted my dry weight numbers to reflect this. Total dry weight for both plants is coming in at 2000g total which is around 4.5 pounds. We put a bunch in the vapes and had a whole lot of fun! The vibe is a solid hybrid offering lots of energy for chit chatting and talking shit. But it's not a racy energy... it's somehow relaxing at the same time. We watched Alone on Netflix and made out... while eating ice cream and chips LOL. I was properly stoned. Stoned as fuck. My eyes were completely red and Njaak was a squinting grinning mofo. He's saying it's his new favourite, and that's before it's cured. This bodes well! So we have put the weed back in paper bags for the cure and are excited about this one. The flavour... we are going with sweet with a bit of citrus, but I think we need a bit more time to let it cure before we could offer reliable data. I'll update more on that later.

🌱 Black Diamond – Plant A (8A) | Week 3 Vegetation 8×8 Adventure – Folder 08 Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure, my personal pheno hunt where twelve different cultivars are being grown simultaneously using the 12/12 From Seed method. The goal of this project is to explore each cultivar’s natural structure, flowering speed, resin production, aromas, and final quality while allowing every phenotype to express its own unique personality. This grow is cultivated entirely with the Plagron Terra nutrient line, maintaining a straightforward feeding schedule while documenting every stage of development through macro photography and weekly reports. Every plant receives exactly the same environmental conditions, allowing genetics to tell their own story. Black Diamond Plant A continues to show exactly why this strain caught my attention. While still young, she already displays excellent vigor, healthy spacing, and the elegant structure that makes a phenotype exciting to follow. ⸻ 🌿 Grow Conditions Week: 3 (Vegetation) * 🌡️ Day Temperature: 27°C * 🌙 Night Temperature: 25°C * 💧 Humidity: 55% * 🌱 Substrate Temperature: 21°C * 💦 Solution Temperature: 20°C * ⚡ EC: 1.3 * pH: 6.0 * 💨 CO₂: 666 ppm * 💡 Light Schedule: 12/12 * ? Pot Size: 15 L * 🚿 Water Consumption: Approximately 1 L per plant/day Feeding Schedule * Terra Grow — 1.8 ml/L * Power Roots — 1 ml/L * Pure Zym — 1 ml/L * Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L * pH Plus — adjusted as required * Lemon Kick — adjusted as required ⸻ 🌱 Plant Development Plant A is developing into a beautifully balanced young lady. She has established a thick central stem with evenly spaced internodes, while the lateral branches are already beginning to push outward, creating the framework for what should become a very productive canopy. Her leaves display a rich, healthy green with excellent turgor, showing that nutrition and irrigation remain well balanced. New growth is arriving rapidly and with good symmetry, suggesting that she has fully settled into her container and is now directing her energy toward vigorous structural development. Compared to many plants grown under the 12/12 From Seed method, she is maintaining a compact architecture while still producing enough internodal spacing to ensure future flower sites receive adequate light penetration. ⸻ 📷 This Week Behind the Lens This week’s photographs really highlight the quality of her structure. The side profiles reveal a strong main stem with excellent node stacking, while the overhead shots showcase an increasingly symmetrical canopy. The macro images capture healthy new growth emerging from every node, giving an excellent preview of the flowering sites that are beginning to form. One of my favorite photos is the overhead shot where the plant resembles a perfectly balanced green star, each fan leaf extending naturally without competing for space. These are exactly the kinds of structural characteristics I enjoy documenting during early development because they often hint at the final architecture of the mature plant. ⸻ 🌿 Looking Ahead As she enters the coming week, I expect Plant A to begin transitioning fully into her stretch phase. The secondary branches should accelerate noticeably, gradually transforming the compact vegetative structure into a canopy filled with evenly distributed flowering sites. If she continues at this pace, she has every opportunity to become one of the standout Black Diamond phenotypes within the project. For now, the objective remains simple: maintain stable environmental conditions, continue the current feeding schedule, and let her natural genetics guide the process. Growers Love and as always, patience is part of the process… and this lady is definitely making me curious about what’s coming next. 💚

I am waiting to start some more seeds I already have them but another tent is needed and a couple of leds, good ones. It will take a few weeks to sort and as usual I have some inspections on the house I need to try and time carefully around 🤔 I did have 2 during this grow the first was in veg luckily they grew in a closet the second was week 3 flower (don't ask) The smell didn't stink out the room like the wedding cake did so I will try and cure this as long as possible to last this as close to next harvest as possible 😅 my cats didn't eat my plants this time so thats another bonus. Need to look into getting a proper air circulation for the new tent I used a fan the whole time my tent was wide open I want to have it sealed next time so I can fully zip it closed ffs lol defo would recommend this strain but I don't think they stock these anymore 😕 I got a coupe seeds from the first plant I was right the pic of the top bud a few weeks ago you can see the seed just about forming after the branch got broken off we will live and learn 😉

Week 3 day 7. Buds are getting icey and stretching around 1-2” a day. Dropped the carboload and is going to be replaced by a PK booster (big bud). Watering everyday. Plain RO on every 3rd water. The kind LED is pissing on the hps if im being honest. Bud development and vigor seems a lot nicer. Stay baked.

Let’s go Day 36 !!! This week went real great, girls built up a lot of structure, and stayed super healthy ! Today they got fed just water phd at 6.5 ! They been really loving that balance! I also removed a lot of under trim since we are going into preflower , so had to shave up those legs lol ! It’s really great for them , the love that airflow , but don’t take off too much or you could shock your plants so be careful ! Can’t wait to see what these girls do this week ! Hope you all enjoy an are ready for another amazing productive week ! Peace , Love , an positive vibes to y’all Cheers LetsGrowwww!!! 😶‍🌫️💨💨💨💨

so far fully satisfied. the plant has officially entered flowering and the first buds are starting to appear. the plant begins to take on the purple aspect that corresponds to it. I notice signs of some parasites on the leaves, up to now I have only found about 4 small spiders clearly visible to the naked eye, and perhaps some other specimens of whiteflies. I accept advice on how to prevent an infestation in the best way.

First off I just want to say for some reason it’s not letting me change the right temperatures on my diaries ! Each time when I put it in they stay at 50. My day air stays 75 degrees an , night degrees is 70 ! Today is day 58 for all these ladies! This week has been really great ! Girls really progressed a lot , especially for one the Forbiddin Runtz, looks like is gonna finish up in a week or 2 ! Other then that they are coming along well! Keep those eyes peeled for next week! Cheers😶‍🌫️💨💨💨💨

Got some nice fluorescence popping in the upper half of the plant. Top dressing a little (2tsp) 4-4-4 NPK, just for safety as some of the leaves are lightening in color. Probably too much water, but I will let her dry out too. Got a lot of great spears/cones developing.

Overall happy with the outcome, really aesthetically pleasing plant but I've never been a big fan of cookie based strains and probably wouldn't do it again. It did produce some male flowers late into flowering. It's a nice plant to grow though from the always dependable Sensi.

It is so very hot now every day here. All my girls are suffering from the heat and they need to be watered very frequently. I avoid drying them out completely. Both plants are doing well in the heat. I prefer the structure of the mainlined plant.

The plant was easy to grow overall .. it grew fast and a little on the tall side which had me nervous but I was able to raise the lights up just enough to finish, so it all worked out in the end. buds came out hard and frosty no complaints . This was a freebie seed too! didn’t expect it to come out as fire as it did man was i wrong. Straight fire 🔥 Ran into root rot in the beginning of veg but the great white and hydroguard saved my ass.🙏
