Grow log entries are usually posted 3 weeks later and are for my learning reference. ««| Introduction - Week 22 Summary - Ensign's log, stardate 17584.1, Been an interesting week in the garden.. At the beginning of the week, decided to increase the soil moisture level a bit. This was huge mistake.. Upgraded the reservoir and raised the height by 2ft. Also refreshed the lung room’s carbon filter. Bud growth was swelling up beautifully. But growth started to droop so switched the soil moisture back, but it was too late. The damage was already done. By then end of the week, lost TKO.. Heady OG is still recovering, but I think she’ll be okay. There were even issues in the veg tent and discovered that two watering units were malfunctioning. Thankfully this issue was fixed and by the end of the week all mothers are back to looking healthy and are thriving! Also gave away the two spare Heady OG clones and been tending to rest with basic RO waterings as needed. More so on the positive side, finally have all that I need to begin my journey into tissue culture and plan to begin soon! Also, even though TKO was lost in the flower tent (damnit Ensign), she is still alive and thriving in the veg tent! So yea. A lot happened this week. Both good and really bad.. Despite the issues, my ganja journey has still just begun and will continue to grow until I succeed. Everything is impossible… Until it’s not. Anyways. Onwards to next grow week.

This particular pheno grows like a tree in veg and her main stalk is already the thickest of the lot. Nice! --- Also glad the newer moms are rooting and getting larger with healthy growth! The original Garlic Budder #1 mother (front right quadrant) is a stretcher and is already getting pretty tall! --- The Gorilla Goat #1 mom (back right quadrant) is also getting bigger and growth is starting to bush out. She’s still the smallest, but should hopefully start to ramp up with growth soon. --- Let’s go girls! - [16:40]: Both of the remaining clones in the propagation tray (Gorilla Goat #2 and the original Garlic Budder #2) look healthy and don’t need to be watered. --- Also gave away the two spare Heady OG BX #1 clones. Hope both thrive with health in their new homes. --- Thanks sisters! Planters of the trees! Ca-Caw! - [19:42]: Checked the 4x4 tent. --- Ca-Caw! Ah yea! I got Headies!! --- Both Heady OG and TKO are looking healthy and wow buds are swelling up! --- Bud colas are everywhere! --- Since I forgot to take readings last week, going to take them now. - [20:39]: Took the weekly height and light distance measurements. ------ Heady OG (BX1 #1) was about 51.5" tall. ------ TKO was about 48" tall. ------ Heady OG (BX1 #1) was about 2.5" away from the grow light (LV5 @ ~390.1W). ------ TKO was about 6" away from the grow light. - [20:48]: Took the weekly general PPFD readings. ------ Heady OG (BX1 #1) was around 916 μmol/m²/s which gives a DLI of 39.57 mol/m²/d under a 12/12 light cycle (LV5 @ ~390.1W). ------ TKO was around 792 μmol/m²/s which gives a DLI of 34.21 mol/m²/d under a 12/12 light cycle. - [20:57]: Quickly checked on the auto-watering system. --- System is still charged and no leaks or kinks found in the tubing. --- Plan to upgrade the reservoir by raising it up a bit. This should help to increase the PSI and waterings more consistant. --- Anyways! - [21:05]: Checked the humidifiers. --- Tanks are still full and no leaks found.

Since heat has always been the most limiting factor, more water is not always better.. --- Sorry! Please don’t die on me ladies!! ------ [ » SMOKES A FEW BOWLS « ] - [+00:22]: Checked the 3x3 veg tent. --- The veg garden is looking beautiful and growth is looking healthy! --- Compared to the TKO mother (back left quadrant), Heady OG (front left quadrant) is looking droopy, but she’s still green. --- Wow the TKO mom is looking really healthy with huge fan leaves. Beautiful! --- Both the Gorilla Goat (back right quadrant) and Garlic Budder (front right quadrant) mamas are looking healthy and perky! --- The spare clones (Gorilla Goat #2 and Garlic Budder #2) are looking healthy but need watering. let’s go Ensign! - [+00:26]: Here are the starting initial watering ranges: ------ Gorilla Goat #2 » 255.4g → 300.3g ------ Garlic Budder OG#2 » 256.4g → 300.2g --------- General Solo Range: [Dry] «| [Initial Cup Weight] + ~55-100g |» [Wet] --- Took the starting weight of both clones before watering, ------ Gorilla Goat #2 » 231.2g and was watered 4 days ago. ------ Garlic Budder OG#2 » 252.7g and was watered 6 days ago. --- While on a scale, --- Gently misted the straw mulch of both cups with RO water. --- Focused on the straw and sprayed as evenly as possible. --- Misted 10-20 sprays. Waited a moment, then misted again. --- Made sure to reference the watering weights. --- Repeated this process until both cups weighted at least 300g. --- There was no runoff. - [+00:44]: Took the saturated weight of both clones after watering, ------ Gorilla Goat #2 » 325.3g ------ Garlic Budder OG#2 » 315.6g --- Marked the final wet weight on the back of each cup. Also marked the watering date on the front. --- Placed both phenos back into the tent and back onto the propagation tray. - [+02:06]: Checked the humidifiers. --- Tanks are still full and no leaks found. Day 04 - Thursday - 09/18/25 - Total Days: 158 ----------------------------------- Daily Averages ~[+01:00] - Temps: 87.0°F [30.6°C] - Humidity: 80.0% - VPD: 0.88 kPa - Soil %: [48, 38, 36, 57, 44, 43, 27, 43] ----------------------------------- - [10:22]: Okay time to upgrade the reservoir! --- Going to raise the tank up a bit. --- Purchased and received a generic 2ft tall wooden stool from Amazon. --- Time to start building! Let’s go! ------ [ » ~30 MINUTES LATER « ] --- Alright! Stool has been built and she’s pretty sturdy! --- Also decided to refresh and change out the lung room’s carbon filter. The filter is long overdue because I think this will be the first time in this room. --- Also swapped out the lung room’s carbon filter and changed the orientation from horizontal to vertical. --- Now the carbon filter is resting on the table with the exhaust fan point straight up. The slight downside is that exhaust vent is S-shaped which will reduced the efficiency of the fan, but that’s okay. --- As for the carbon filter, both units are refillable! Plan to refresh the old filter unit with new carbon before the next filter swap out (have a bag of fresh carbon pellets). --- Anyways! Now the tank is 24in higher than it was. Since the auto-watering system is gravity fed, this should raise the PSI slightly more. --- This also frees up some floor space under the table. --- While rearranging the Ecowitt WittFlow units, I discovered an issue with two of the units. --- Both the front left (Heady OG BX1 #1 mom) and back right (Gorilla Goat #1 mom) for the veg tent were malfunctioning. --- Shaka.. When the walls fell.. --- Will check on the veg garden this evening. - [16:26]: Evening check on the 3x3 veg tent. --- Okay! Well the garden looks the green and healthy! --- But now the droopy growth from the Heady OG mother (front left quadrant) is making sense.. - [16:42]: Checked all Ecowitt WittFlow units again for water flow. --- Yep. Out of all six units, two are faulty.. --- Both units are giving false readings. Both are connected to the Ecowitt WittBoy WiFi hub and the app seems to be working just fine. --- But when the valves are on in the app, there’s still no water flow. --- Swapped the batteries out on both units and checked the intake tubing. Even used the manual override to open valve. --- Still no water.. --- Need to order new units later.. --- Shaka.. --- Well until the new units arrive, will need to hand water both moms. --- Let’s go! - [17:12]: Filled a pump sprayer with 4 cups of RO water. ------ Added 1/64tsp of Quillaja Saponaria Extract [60] --- Gave the sprayer a good shake before spraying the entire solution onto the Heady OG BX1 #1’s straw mulch. - [17:36]: Filled the pump sprayer with 2 cups of RO water. ------ Added a pinch of Quillaja Saponaria Extract [60] --- Gave the sprayer a good shake before spraying the entire solution onto Gorilla Goat #1’s straw mulch. --- Check on both clones in the propagation tray (Gorilla Goat #2 and the original Garlic Budder #2) and growth looks healthy. Also no need to water! - [17:43]: Checked and updated the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: ------------------ [ 4x4 MAIN TENT ] --------------- ------ 45% - [CH01 FT » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 38% - [CH02 FB » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 35% - [CH03 BT » G20 - TKO] ------ 57% - [CH04 BB » G20 - TKO] ------------------ [ 3x3 VEG TENT ] ---------------- ------ 47% - [CH05 BL » GR7 - TKO] ------ 61% - [CH06 BR » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #1] ------ 45% - [CH07 FL » GR7 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 50% - [CH08 FR » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#1] --------- Veg: 38% - 45% | Flower: 45% - 55% --------- General: 30% [Dry] «| 45 - 60% [Moist] |» 70% [Wet] --- Shaka.. When the walls fell. --- Well soil moisture levels all look great now! --- But looking back at my logs, Heady OG’s WittFlow unit started failing about 14 days ago. Also think Gorilla Goat’s unit started failing around a week ago. --- Damnit Ensign!! --- Even though these entries are literally typed and logged for daily grow reference, I completely failed to notice the soil levels dropping from around 41% down to 20% over the past two weeks. --- Wow. ------ [ » SEVERAL BOWLS LATER « ] - [20:05]: Checked the 4x4 tent. --- Nice! Well the garden is looking okay for the most part. --- Heady OG is still looking droopy and yet wow buds are swelling up! --- TKO is looking stressed bud buds look okay. --- Both looked way better at the beginning of the week.. - [20:15]: Checked the humidifiers. --- Tanks are still full and no leaks found.

Plan to start and modify from there. Also have reached out to Laur for basic beginner tips and cannabis specific advice for tissue culture. --- Even with all the current grow issues (also had a recent computer failure), getting hyped for tissue culture! - [23:12]: Night check on the 4x4 tent. --- Wow Heady OG is looking better! Sort of. --- TKO is looking stressed. - [23:17]: Checked the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: ------------------ [ 4x4 MAIN TENT ] --------------- ------ 48% - [CH01 FT » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 39% - [CH02 FB » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 35% - [CH03 BT » G20 - TKO] ------ 56% - [CH04 BB » G20 - TKO] ------------------ [ 3x3 VEG TENT ] ---------------- ------ 42% - [CH05 BL » GR7 - TKO] ------ 44% - [CH06 BR » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #1] ------ 24% - [CH07 FL » GR7 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 42% - [CH08 FR » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#1] --------- Veg: 38% - 45% | Flower: 45% - 55% --------- General: 30% [Dry] «| 45 - 60% [Moist] |» 70% [Wet] - [23:19]: Checked the 3x3 veg tent. --- The veg garden is looking beautiful and healthier! --- Nice!

Shouldn’t have increased the soil moisture levels and still can’t believe that increasing the levels by 10-15% was enough to cause TKO to go from green and healthy, to burnt and yellow. --- Since I’m only flowering two plants this cycle, by losing TKO, just lost half the garden. --- Wow. A lot can happen in a week. --- Shaka. When the walls fell.. --- Well at least Heady OG made it through the week and am hoping she survives. --- Anyways, onwards to next. ------ [ » SMOKES SEVERAL BOWLS « ] [END OF WEEK 22]

Day 100 - Harvest time! Will hang her completely upside down. RH=58% and 23ºC at almost midday. Hanging them in my bathroom Day 105 - Drying finished today! Was faster then i expected but im mid summer so its hard to maintain proper drying temperatures Im SUPER happy with this diary, @Fast_Buds and the Grow Diaries Team! This website has helped my improve my growing skills in a way i couldn´t imagine. Having a clear, imaged, reported diary where you write everything you do, really helps you understand your mistakes and see where you could have donw better comparing to how others did! Also another big thank you to the GD Team for having me tied 3rd at the FastBuds 2023 Outdoor Grow Contest and to the very kind @Fast_Buds Team 🙌 Keep on Growing!!

***Sponsored Grow*** = Medic || https://medicgrow.com || Grow = ***Sponsored Grow*** This week has been interesting, I was getting some weird runoff numbers in terms of EC/PPM and PH, so I decided to try and bring the PH up with a flush of high PH water into the medium. I did not have any PH up on hand so I used borax, PH of 9-10 plus it will help kill off any microbes in the soil that I believe is causing the PH swings. After doing this and getting the PH I wanted in the solution I released that the amount of B in the solution was to high and would cause more issues down the road, It was late in the day so I left the next flush to fix the excess B till tomorrow morning. Morning came and when I processed to flush I added in a bit of peroxide to the water and a dash of dish soap to break the waters surface tension so it flows through the pots more easily. This was going fine till it started to not drain out at all. I think it was foaming up in the medium and preventing a normal flow, plus on two of the pots I lost my perlite that sits on the top of the medium. I had to massage the pots "like when you transplant" to make then start draining again and then purchased a Yucca extract to help it flow through. Everything is back to normal. The pots are really root bound and should be transplanted but its mid flower and that's not going to be happening. I also don't know if I'd even have the space for it. I added in a b1 vitamin as well on recommendation of grow shop as apparently their other lineup I purchased did not have any. No idea if its working well only first week in the feeding. The Cytokelp is fun, but the one hormone in it is similar to a PGR but its not a real PGR. I am skeptical of it and not using it as foliar, just root watering. I also added in a bit of CaMg supplement that gave the plants a boost in N and Ca. The mg of this product was lesser then others I have seen about a 5:1 ratio of Ca to Mg. after the big flushes the runoff was hitting 120ppm so I gave it a good feed at 1.8EC Time will tell If i fucked it up royally by doing all this, this seedsman plant is still quite sensitive to cooler temps. My tents hitting 17c at night and it still is acting like its hitting 10c as autumn colours are popping off on them. Some of my other plants are also discoloured but not to the same extent as this one. All the plants are still stretching but it seems slow to me. Maybe it will continue going but it only put on about 10cm in the last week and a half. Feels slow. I may see more stretching in the next week upcoming and it just had a ruff start. Lights still running at 100% with V1 spectrum, everything seems to be working just fine, no light burn. Till next week. ***Sponsored Grow*** Official Website: https://medicgrow.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/medicgrowled Twitter: https://twitter.com/medicgrow Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/medicgrow420/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNmiY4F9z94u-8eGj7R1CSQ Growdiaries: https://growdiaries.com/grower/medicgrowled https://growdiaries.com/grow-lights/medic-grow

Das kleine 150 Watt Licht macht sich bemerkbar. An Tag 40 sind sie schon etwas zu sehr ausgetrocknet. Dann mit 2L pro Pflanze gegossen.

This week is going really good, started seeing white hairs appear for it’s safe to say that it is beginning to flower, no scent as yet but will update as time goes on. Was eyeballing the height before but now I actually did it and it’s close or even passed 3ft now....this plant is growing amazingly.

here already a little more grown and applying the techniques lst apical pizzicato experimenting, Seeing how the techniques are manifested, some were done poorly, so their results were somewhat strange or curious, if they did, you judge, errors such as not cutting the apical trying to do the pruning, poe error from fmi and only cut the tiny growing leaves that's why you will see those rare leaves

🏆 Eternity Grow Cup 2025 with Plagron and Zamnesia 🏆 Zamnesia – Runtz 93 days from seed | 62 days in flower The time has come — harvest day is here, and our incredible journey with this beautiful Runtz from Zamnesia has come to a fragrant, frosty end. For the past two weeks, she’s been enjoying pure, clean water as we prepared her for the finish line. Her leaves gently faded to gold, signaling her maturity, while the trichomes turned from cloudy to amber — with about 15% showing that deep golden hue we were waiting for. She grew strong and vibrant thanks to the outstanding genetics from Zamnesia Seeds, and we’re beyond grateful for this opportunity to cultivate such a top-tier strain. Her structure, aroma, and resin production were truly impressive. A massive thank you to Plagron as well — your nutrients have once again proven to be the perfect fuel for our grow. Easy to use, reliable, and effective — we couldn’t ask for better support for our plant’s development. Stay tuned — soon we’ll share the dry weight and a full smoke report. But for now, it’s time to celebrate the harvest!
