Tag 88: Die Watermelon Candy F1 Automatic von Zamnesia Seeds hat Spass gemacht, anzubauen. Das ich so unvorsichtig war und die Spitze abgebrochen habe, ärgert mich jetzt noch. Dafür hat sie ganz schön reagiert mit dem "Ersatzhaupttrieb". Das Nassgewicht kann man nicht ernst nehmen, ist mit einer groben Küchenmaschine gewogen, wichtiger ist, wieviel es nach der Trocknung ist. 😎

8/22/2021 - Did some mid-flower defoliation to increase airflow and to prevent mold and mildew. - Split the top right main from trying to train her down and spread out the canopy, supporting with tape and twist ties. 8/23/2021 - Top right main is still vigorous after split.

Topped Gelato #1 twice on different stems on days 52 & 56, Gelato #2 on day 56 Started feeding 4ml Foliage-Pro & a dose of Zyme on day 54. Color & health seems to be back on track.

Day 29: The girls are looking great. I upped the nutes yesterday, as I have been giving them barely any at all. Will up them once again on next feeding. Looking like tomorrow. The main branch that I snapped off did not make it. Lesson learned on that one. Day 30: Removed all other lights and added the HLG 550 V2 RSpec. Did some defoliation on the girls along with another feeding. Will do straight PH'd water next go. The girls are looking strong and healthy. 💪 Just on the small side. Still having to leave the tent wide open to subside temps and humidity. Day 31: Nothing new to report. Looking very short and stubby and healthy!! Day 32: Looking like they had some good stretching going on over the 3-day weekend. Will be needing fed tomorrow after work. May water a little less this time, as it is taking 2-3 days for them to dry out. Day 33: Great stretch and bloom on the girls today! They are looking super healthy and strong! 💪 No smell yet. Day 34: Girls are looking decent. Noticed some rusty looking splotches on the leaves. I'm thinking possibly Cal-Mag deficiency? Not sure. Day 35: Not looking too happy today. I let them dry completely and watered with only Cal-Mag. Hoping the patchiness clears up for them!

No more silica! ~~~~~~~~~~ Questions & Feedback are welcomed, feel free to message me! Thanks for stopping by growmies! 🤙🤙🤙🙏🙏🙏

Great week, everything going well, plants are really growing fast now , started low stress training and the ladies are happy. Excited to try the flavors of them .

Not much to report. About 4 weeks to go. Everything seems to be progressing nicely but I don't have really have enough experience to really be sure if it's optimal. I'm hoping they really start to fatten up soon. Started PK 13/14 on day 40 of flower.

Everything is looking good this week..

VT16 – 12.10.2025 Die Pflanzen entwickeln sich insgesamt eigentlich ganz gut – vielleicht etwas langsamer durch das Topping, aber im Großen und Ganzen bin ich zufrieden. Leider habe ich bei zwei Pflanzen erste Mangelerscheinungen festgestellt, und zwar einen Cal/Mag-Mangel. Ich vermute, dass durch das Gießen nach dem 1/3-Verfahren ohne zusätzliche Nährstoffe die Reserven doch schneller aufgebraucht wurden als gedacht. Die Erde ist außerdem noch relativ feucht bzw. im mittleren Bereich, was das Nachgießen etwas erschwert. Trotzdem habe ich mich dazu entschieden, vorsichtig rund um die betroffenen Pflanzen etwa 650 ml Nährlösung zu geben. Ich bilde mir ein, schon erste Verbesserungen zu erkennen. VT17 – 13.10.2025 Heute habe ich bei allen drei Pflanzen die vier Außentriebe mit Pflanzenhaltern weiter nach unten fixiert. Das habe ich in früheren Runs auch so gemacht und damit gute Erfahrungen gemacht. Man hätte eventuell noch etwas warten können, da die Fixierung jetzt ziemlich nah am Stamm sitzt – aber ich denke, das ist halb so wild. Alles in allem bin ich mit der Entwicklung zufrieden. INFO: Ich habe die beiden Pflanzen mit den Mangelerscheinungen nach dem Düngeschema der dritten Woche gegossen – mit Ausnahme von Cal/Mag, das ich um 0,5 ml erhöht und an meine Wasserwerte angepasst habe.

18/06: Week 5 – early bloom stage confirmed! 🌱➡️🌸 We're entering week 5 with EC 1.6 and pH 5.8. The very first white pistils have emerged, confirming the transition into early flowering. The recent vertical surge was likely boosted by Far-Red and IR spectrum effects, along with enhanced metabolism from the CO₂ generator. From here, the plants will start shifting energy from stretch to flower production. Environmental control (especially RH and VPD) is now crucial to avoid early bloom issues. LST is being finalized as structure sets in. 21/06: We're now at day 31 since germination, and the flowering phase is clearly underway. Based on the canopy photo, the plants are thriving: a lush, uniform green with no signs of nutrient stress. Buds are starting to stack up nicely, and the foliage remains sturdy and intact. EC has been bumped up to 1.8 this week to support early bloom demands — especially for phosphorus and potassium — and the plants are handling it smoothly. No burnt tips or discoloration, indicating stable nutrient uptake. With environmental parameters dialed in through the GGS controller, everything's in sync. Onward to some serious bud building. 22/06: Stretch is in full swing — the girls are reaching hard, and I’ve had to raise the lights multiple times over the last few days. They’re now hovering just 10 cm above the canopy, delivering 1200 PPFD at 38 °C. We're truly pushing the physiological limit here. Dropping the lights any closer isn’t an option — cooling is maxed out, and more intensity = more heat. The only adjustable variable left would be CO₂ reduction, which I’d rather avoid at this stage. So far, no visible stress signs, but I’m watching them closely. Water uptake is intense — 100L in just 5 days. I refilled today (rather than a full res change) to prevent air pocket formation. Slightly bumped up the EC to temper the stretch. If things keep going vertical, some LST may soon be necessary — a few tops are practically kissing the diodes.

I am preparing to harvest

76 Gramm kamen raus wieder mehr als ich anfangs erwartet habe. Die Buds sehen super aus haben eine tolle Festigkeit und riechen phänomenal.

The week ain’t over yet but so far so good. What i’ve done: •Germinated the seed in a glass of water •Replanted it from a 2.7 liter pot to a 6 liter bucket with drilled holes at the bottom. ———————————————————————— What i’ll do the coming days: •Give the plant a 150w led light •Give the plant 18/6 light instead of 24 hours

Mit Abstand die dicksten Buds von meinen aktuellen 4 Ladys. Bin echt erstaunt wie die Genetik performt!

Grow went well. Spider farmer produces again the se5000. One day they myt sponsor me beofre someone else does. Dyno myco somw gd stuff chek out ppl.

A great week. Included a diagram so you can better tell which plant is which. I will be changing that up come flower to better fit the plants so I'll label them later as well. Gonna flip to flower I believe to try and save space. Gonna be tight but wasn't planning that this time. Have to do a lot of training still. Haven't gotten to it due to being so busy with life. I got some BT var israelensis or something close to that for the fungus gnats thanks to @resimax and will test that. Lastly, you might catch a glance at the upcoming diary...

week intel: we reached the peak of flowering stage and need to cause a little more e.c stress from this week so e.c stress is twice a week i reduced the amount of Nitrogen and calcium and stopped feeding silicate in other hand i raised the amount of base nutrient and booster short story version: more K & P - less N stresses : a little E.C stress around 1.6 and 1.7 twice a week from this week feeding: i feed them 3 times this week with this order : day 1 : i feed them high with base nutrients(calcium & micros (half dose) + Bloom) about 822 ppm - 1.6 e.c to cause a little stress. day 3 : i feed them low dose of Top-Max + B-52 around 525 ppm - 1 e.c to let them recover a little but not fully recover still a little stress will caused. day 5 : i feed them high dose of Feeding Booster around 850 ppm - 1.7 e.c to cause e.c stress again guide of the week : from this week we can cause more E.C stresses. e.c stress if done correctly is one of the very few ways to increase quality in all aspects ( color , aroma , taste , bud structure , resin contents ) but if you over do it , listen carefully brother : it can reduce quality in every aspect so always look for signs and never reach the red line.

Well there looking really good the smell fairly skunky with a little orange peel smell so yeah the got even bigger they have stopped frowning well some of them but yeah there awesome plant but just doesn’t provide me with enough bud lol so yeah if you want more for this plant veg is where it’s at lol so what I mean is veg for a longer time if you have the space cause these plants grow really squat
