I continued to renew the stakes, every 3-5 days and watered when dry. Btw I don't water every day, more like every 2-4 days, when the soil dries out.

Spray evolution one's a week

Getting close to the end smelling amazing

Continue with the LST this week, plant canopy is looking good and very bushy, I was forced to defoliate harder this week because the new growth was being blocked by the big fan leaves Overall a good week without any problems. DAY 59 - Water PH - 5.99 PPM- 567 Solution Temp - 21.4 Watering Volume - 3L DAY 63 - Nutes PH - 5.85 PPM- 2080 Solution Temp - 23.2 Watering Volume - 3L Foliar Spray PH - 6.71/5.55 PPM- 2090/2390 Solution Temp - 21/20.7 Watering Volume - 100 mL

Still wet, but I am very happy with the result for my first grow :) The autos grew much bigger than I expected and I underestimated the growth spurt during flower, so I had increase the setup beyond what people might see as pure budget. Anyway I can't wait to try :)

2/10: I watered today with about 3/4 gallon each, plus cal-mag, signal, bembe, armor si, a little open sesame, and their final dose of endoboost. I took photos today, but forgot to snap a shot of the Soooperrunt. She's as tall as the short one now, just not as bushy. I think she'll make a fair amount of bud despite her sloooow start, smaller stature, and smaller pot. The tall one is keeping pace with the biggest plants in the garden. 2/11: Wife home sick today....postponing construction project to raise the lights....kinda scary....about 10"-12" from the tops now.. 2/12: I woke up to find the tallest of these bitches stretched another few inches and within 9 inches of the lights!!! I quickly drug everybody out of the closet and undertook the project. In addition to that project, I installed and hooked up my new AC Infinity 6" intake fan. It's pulling in fresh air from the soffit vent on the eave of the attic, and currently feeding the garden with 46f fresh air. I'm able to easily maintain daytime temps in the lower 70f's now. I am able to drive the nighttime temps as low as I want. The only issue is that the outdoor RH varies quite a bit, so I ordered a 30-pint dehumidifier to put in the top of the closet. It will battle with the evaporative cooler while the lights are on to keep it at 45% RH, but after the lights go off, it will lower the RH to 35% unti morning. After another couple of weeks, I'll kill the evap cooler altogether and try to maintain 35% RH 24/7. I'm optimistic that it will be the difference-maker in maintaining lower RH while I'm flushing all the plants during the last couple of weeks. That's usually such a challenge...especially with a bunch of 5 gallon pots. I also sprayed everybody with boomboom spray to try and mitigate the light burn damage that is likely to ensue. 2/13: Still stretching... about 12" from the lights again. I will wait to raise the lights until tomorrow when I feed them. I'm seeing calcium deficiency on a few plants, including a #9. Will up the dose tomorrow when I feed. 2/14: I fed them today with about 3/4 gallon each including grow big, big bloom, tiger bloom, cal-mag, signal, bembe, humic acid, and I switched over from Open Sesame to Beastie Bloomz. Raised the lights another couple of inches. I did some training on them and defo'd a little bit. 2/15: Installed the new dehumidifier and rigged the continuous drain on it...works great. 2/16: I rotated the edge plants and removed some old leaves. I added another 22w 3000k 4' bar light under the canopy. 2/17: I rearranged the garden and defoliated a little bit. That's it for week 8-

Pretty easy so far haven't feed any nutrients just plain water and great white mycorrhizae mixed with molasses. Gonna be moving them by next week to my tent and start training and topping them by the fifth node so soon 😁.

**** Week 13 growth - February 27 to March 5, 2021 - Week 4 Flower ***** These girls are looking a little more different as we get further in flower. Pheno 1 is starting to swell more this week and here leaves are a nice rich green colour. Pheno 2 on the other hand has lighter leaf colour but is reacting less favourable to the amount of nitrogen and clawing down at the end of the week. It could be that she is also reacting worse to the increased light intensity this week. The frost production on Pheno 1 is also coming out more now. These two girls seems a little more reactionary to nutrient levels. Light intensity increased this week. Pushed up to 525 watts and then to 550 watts at the end of the week. This got the a little hot by the end of the week though. Working with a new light and finding the sweet spots takes a run or two. Learning how the girls grow anyway so the whole run is a lot of learning......its all good😀 Nutrients were pushed a little at the end of last week and the start of this week so backing off a bit more again. Given that they were pushed with light intensity they started showing some signs of nutrient issues. It’s good though as there is reaction time and back off to plain water feed for a couple of days at the end of the week and into week 5. Week 5 is going to be the start of the last stage of flower feed and work with that for two weeks, then stop feeding at the end of week 6........the plan so far anyway. Little more detail....... Feb 27/21 - Day 22 - big feed day - all IPP line plus silica @ 1ml, CalMag @ 1ml, Rezin @ 1.5ml, enzymes @ 1.5ml - 1650ppm and 6.1pH - 4L Feb 28/21 - Day23 - Microbe day but also added some CalMag - Natures Candy @ 1.5ml, Recharge @ 1/2 tsp/gal, Magnifical @ 1.5ml, Micro @ 1ml, Bloom 1.5ml, Terpinator @ 2ml - 950 ppm and 6.0pH - 3L - leaf colour almost looks light today. Mar 1/21 - Day 24 - dry out day. Mar 2/21 - Day 25 - plain water - 300ppm and 6.1 ph - 4L - light power pushed up to 550 watts today. - (too much from 16” to 20”........note!!) Mar 3/21 - Day 26 - plain water with two suppliiments - Terpinator @ 3ml, Rezin @ 2ml. - 525ppm & 6.0pH - 4L - stripped some leaves today......sticky in the middle😃😃👍👍 Mar 4/21 - Day 27 - no water added today - light power reduced today 450 watts. - been going too hard with intensity. Seeing leaf curl on other girls in the tent. - joys of diagnosing cannabis😂 - starting with backing off light and reduce ppm going in but not the ml👍 Mar 5/21 - Day 28 - hit with microbes again to help with stresses. - recharge @ 1 tsp/gal, Nature’s Candy @ 1.5ml - 375ppm and 6.0pH - 3L Moving right along we are through 4 weeks now and moving past the middle of flower.

DAY 21 F: Hi all. Another productive week for the fast buds jungle and the #Fc3000 . The room is full of limbs , leaves and chunky stalks all rounded off with sexy little budlets dancing in the wind for me every time I open the tent . Makes me feel like Hugh Heffner !!!. All of the plants have finished their stretch totally now and a huge surprise has been the midget Mexican airline now being the same height as her sister. I expected her to stay smaller due to the past growing period ect.. but she has somehow hit the same height now. Her buds are not as advanced as the #2 M.a but time should change that too. #1 is forming some very nice looking open flowers now with bundles of fresh pistils to them too. Both of the six Shooter are looking productive in their different set ups. The #1 has reached around 2ft and has some very nice sites setting up now. #2 has been more spread horizontally and is a long distance from the light too. With the canopy height being dictated by the huge Strawberry Pie girls , I felt it would be a good way to see how far away the light can help develop buds rather than supercrop all the big girls for one squat lady. So far the amount of bud sites is promising and it does look as though they are getting enough to develop. Both of the Strawberry pie have really hit their peak with at least 2.5ft tops. Buds are for.ing nicely and the sides are also well developed and in good positions for their own light grabs. It does give hope of some bigger buds than the long node lengths would suggest. Let's see in a few weeks shall we. Lol They had a top dress of charge and life-cycle too to help boost the flowering stage a little. Soil is performing as expected and the watering is going well so far with no excesses either way . Until next time growmies , be safe and well.

WEEK 11 - 29-8-2020 - 04-9-2020 02/9/2020 - Nutrient mixed with 20 gallon filtered water. Each tank filled with 10 gallons: Silicon - 1.5ml/gal ~ 30ml Cal mag - 2.5ml/gal - 50ml Micro - 5ml/gal - 100ml Gro - 3ml/gal - 60ml Bloom - 7ml/gal - 140ml Hydroguard - 2ml/gal - 40ml Nitrozyme - 5ml/10L - 40ml Ph 6.00, Ppm 820, Temp 21 04/9/2020 - Did minor defoliation for plant 1. Heavy defoliation for plant 2. Plant 2 is really bushy. Hope after this defoliation it will stretch and get to same level as plant 1. I prefer not to supercrop plant 1. Carbon filter prefilter changed to a new one. So far the girls are looking great!

Week 15 From Seed — Sour Diesel | Part 2 — Cure, Smoke Review & Final Thoughts 🌱 Before starting this final chapter, a quick recap for everyone arriving here for the first time. This entire run was done 12/12 from seed inside a room shared with multiple genetics, different personalities and different expressions. Some girls loved the environment from day one. Others needed more patience, more adaptation and more understanding. And our Sour Diesel… she definitely had her difficult moments. She never fully enjoyed the room conditions the same way some of the others did. While the rest exploded with vigor and stacked aggressively, this girl stayed smaller, more sensitive and a little more demanding. In another environment, another setup or another run focused only on her, maybe she would have shown a completely different side. But that is also part of growing. Not every plant becomes the biggest one in the room. Not every run is about chasing records or numbers. Sometimes the lesson is patience. Sometimes the lesson is resilience. Sometimes the lesson is simply learning when to support instead of giving up. And honestly… I am very glad I kept her alive and trusted the process. From seed until harvest, she received the exact same love as every other plant in the room. Minimal training, only some gentle leaf bending here and there, plants growing naturally into the PPFD provided by the LEDs. Organic and mineral nutrition working together through the Plagron line. Slow development, careful observation and a lot of patience. After harvest, she dried for around 10 days at roughly 18–20°C and 60% humidity before trimming day arrived. Branches were broken down slowly by hand, gloves on, trimming bin on the table and the curved Zamnesia scissors once again becoming absolute heroes during cleanup. Even with a smaller harvest, she still covered the gloves with sticky resin and rewarded us with beautiful finger hash and a nice little collection from the trim bin screen. In total, she delivered 54.2 grams. And honestly? Considering everything she went through… I am genuinely happy with that result. Not every victory is measured only in weight. Sometimes a successful harvest is simply reaching the finish line. After trimming, she went into the Zamnesia vacuum containers for cure alongside some glass jars for comparison. Humidity stayed stable and now, after roughly one and a half to two months of curing, this little jar became one of those “special occasion” jars. The type you do not open every day. The type you revisit slowly. The type you respect because there is not much of it left. And now for the important part… The smoke. This girl is beautiful. Very old-school feeling medicine. Strong diesel and skunky notes immediately hit on the inhale with that nostalgic classic Sour profile many growers still chase today. Sharp, dirty, fuel-like terpenes mixed with that earthy-skunky background that instantly brings memories from older genetics and older sessions. The smoke itself is smooth but expressive. Not aggressive on the throat, but very loud in flavor. And the effect? Completely cerebral. Uplifting, active, creative and socially pleasant while still carrying enough depth to relax the body without knocking it down. This is not couch-lock medicine. This is “sit outside during sunset and watch the world slow down a little” medicine. Perfect for daytime sessions, creative moments, long conversations, walks, music or simply reconnecting with your own thoughts. Very functional while still being powerful. And honestly… probably one of the most nostalgic smokes from this entire run. We also decided to press part of the harvest to see how she behaved as rosin. And yes… mistakes were made 😄 We pressed at around 90°C for roughly 180 seconds and ended up going slightly hotter than ideal. The result came out darker than expected, but still incredibly flavorful and enjoyable. The terpenes remained beautiful, the texture cured nicely and overall it became another great learning experience. That is also part of the journey. You learn. You adjust. You improve. And next press gets even better. One thing I also wanted to share in this final report are some of the macro focus stacks included in the gallery. We have one 99-frame stack, one 160-frame stack, one 222-frame stack and one 255-frame stack. These do not represent the harvest itself. They are artistic and educational macro projects created to showcase the trichomes, textures and structure hidden inside these flowers. Tiny worlds inside tiny worlds. A way to slow down and appreciate details our eyes normally miss. And honestly… this little Sour Diesel deserved that attention. Of course, Mr. Baggy stayed with us the whole way through the process as always. Despite being a blue fluffy assistant with questionable qualifications, his emotional support during trimming, curing and “quality control sessions” continues to be outstanding 😄 As we close this run, I want once again to thank everybody involved. Zamnesia for the genetics. Plagron for the nutrients. FOG and Future of Grow for the lighting. GrowDiaries for the platform and the community. The OG followers. The new followers. The silent watchers. The supporters. The skeptics. The lovers. The haters. The growers. The learners. The teachers. Everybody who stopped by and became part of this journey in one way or another. This run may be finished… But the next adventure is already growing somewhere nearby 🌱

And this is how we successfully open week 9 - After fermenting a dose of PK compost tea at the end of last week, I poured it extensively. As always, he did them very well. They also need significantly more water again. I have now also increased the humidity a bit, because there is currently drier indoor air in the room of the cultivation area. Let's see how long I leave my Sweet Seeds ladies. I'll decide that at short notice. Sour Jealousy will then be able to enjoy all the space to bloom at her disposal. Both Sweet Seeds now only get purified and aerated water and only enriched with enzymes. It is now time to signal to both to use up their reserves. After all, their genetically pre-programmed life cycle is significantly shorter than that of sativa-dominant strains - for example, Sour Jealousy from Fast Buds. She is only now really starting to flower, while the indica dominant strains are moving towards the glorious end. I have also already been able to positively determine how practical and thought through to the end 2 Sanlight panels really make sense. I am not primarily concerned with more power through the lighting, but also and above all, I am concerned with the homogeneous illumination at 11 degrees inclined positioning of the solar panels. And to have the opportunity to meet the different growing conditions individually by adjusting the heights of both panels. Of course, I will be able to strive for much higher performance in the large Homebox Ambient with CO 2 and both lamps, but area coverage is the be-all and end-all for me. Lamps currently operate at 60% each. That's definitely enough. Because 2 x EVO 4 - 80 means to me: Precision in the form of light - a tool that you learn to use. Everything before didn't convince and satisfy me nearly as impressively as Sanlight. Also the advantage of being able to operate your lighting system from the outside, via Bluetooth, yes that is really very important, practical and innovative. It makes things so much easier... Sweet Seeds - brand new: „Jealousy Z XL“ I can’t wait to give it a try next run… Super noble presentation, in my opinion. There are many reasons for an emotional attachment to a product. But one stands out in particular: the desire to design, personalize, individualize something or - in other words - the desire to own something unique and feel special as a result. Scientists have found that our buying behavior is shaped by emotions. A person does not buy a product, but an emotional feeling. Many thanks to Sweet Seeds! 🙏 I also feel the feeling that Dark Devil gives me - as a noble high. I associate the turn with a noble, very effective and multifaceted indica dominant weed from Sweet Seeds. Creative work only works in the 1st part of the turn - haha, because then the coma phase begins with subsequent binge eating! But even during sports I was in the vaporizer with Dark Devil and it supported me mightily during training. Maybe it depends on the activity at the time of consumption, haha I find it very fruity in taste and smell. Very sweet terpene spectrum. And not very top-heavy. A wonderful body high. Worries and fears - as if blown away… Some here on growdiaries describe meticulously exactly how they give what, when and how much of it to the plant, etc. I prefer to keep a diary for my passion in a different way. With passion and feeling. I feel my plants. And talk to them. They also listen to chilled music. The Kobe beef in Japan is even massaged to classical music. ;-)) I think such information is only useful for a run to those who do it exactly the same way, under the same conditions with almost the same phenotype. That is almost impossible. And not necessary either. I have to learn to read plants. Their signs are pointing. Become sensitive to it. If I know why and how something happens, then I also know how to keep something like this alive. And what it takes. And why. So let's see what we have to do today. In any case, Lady Jealousy is being driven to the hairdresser today. Yes, we're doing beauty and wellness spa today, haha. She's so busy with branching, I'll give her a helping hand. She has developed incredibly. And has an unusually long breath. Comparative: She looks like a farm animal to me. In other words, what it was bred for. Very strong and healthy adult. Then bloom efficiently and productively. And that's the fascinating thing for me. The breeder creates all parameters here to perfection. Even though I don't particularly like the marketing of Fast Buds anymore, I have to admit without envy: "I've never experienced that before." The phenotypes are absolute warriors, from another planet. Marketing is debatable. No problem. But I can only marvel at these plants and their quality. Unfortunately, too much turnover often spoils the core vision of a successful company. …PK is on the way! Addendum about the one, Lady Dark Devil 😈, which had to be harvested too early: And yet: Dark Devil gives me a deep inner satisfaction in my existence. Nothing upsets me. Nothing can disturb me, because I am one, with myself and my environment. I can only feel gratitude for that. It gives me this broad, generous sense of inner peace. For me, inner peace means balance, equanimity, even-mindedness, harmony, and stability. And that's exactly what a noble special effect means to me. When a weed variety can develop medicinal qualities. When THC simply has a more complex effect on my organism, than just the usual power high. And if, a plant that hasn't even had the opportunity to reach its full potential, can do that, it has passed all the requirements of a cannabis variation, with flying colors. And on top of that, she seems incredibly graceful and elegantly feminine to me. It's just something very special: She's a Sweet Seed! Oh I see, I'm writing a real diary here... 😜 But I love that. I love grow diaries. Look at the brave girl. She forgives me for topping, training, defoliating and in the end: that I have to kill her. But I know then for sure, that she knows, that I really loved her. And the fascinating homogeneity. Totally instructive. It behaves like a photoperiod phenotype, unbelievable but true! on 14.09.2024 I moved her to the grow room with the others. So it's almost 9 weeks. I'm curious to see if she holds out. But I think so. It seems incredibly energetic and relatively relaxed to me. I'm mentally very busy with her right now. Every morning I comb through her leaf picture. Make impressions of the smallest changes. I currently have Pk boosters or tea with her every third day, alternating. And in between only purified water with enzymes. Dark Devil and Big Devil I let slowly starve and then die of thirst. They consumed the last booster 4 days ago. She (Sour Jealousy) currently swallows 2.5 liters per day. That's really a lot. And in the morning she wants to have something again. I think the lamps tickle out their full potential. I meticulously defoliated her and now she stands happily and despite all the exertions, like a star in the sky. My star. 🌟 Sour Jealousy is really crazy, I can say that. And the coolest highlight will be: Lady Jealousy will soon be able to enjoy the whole place in the sun for the "grande finale". The smell of the two Sweet Seeds totally upsets me! I would like to bite into it. Its killing me softly. Very few leaves have a few dark small spots or dots at the tips of the leaves. (Sour Jealousy) Many thanks to BerrySweetHighhat. I think the same. Will probably be calcium. She gets this from the Bio PK Booster. I keep calm and don’t panic, it’s organic. ;-)) Sour Jealousy: Today I cleaned out small shoots again & defoliated them from below up. I think there were still too many young little shoots. Now everything should be distributed quite well. We'll see. Tomorrow I will probably harvest both Sweet Seeds. Hello everybody! Today it's Dark and Big Devil's attack. It's about time. Lady Jealousy will be allowed to use the full 0.64 sqm of cultivation area for herself from today. Take care & bee 🐝 positive 🐝… to bee continued.

This plant is growing well, I transplanted them this week into 3 gallon pots from 1 gallon pots. Structure on this plant is pretty nice and visually pleasing to the eye lol.

Hi everyone 🤗 This week it looked more and more astonishing after opening the box a wonderful sweet smell wafts through the room 👍. A few days ago the Blue Cheese Phenotype 1 was harvested and placed in the dark room :-). This week both Kosher Tangie Kush phenotypes will be harvested 👍. Next week the Blue Cheese phenotypes 1 and 2 will be harvested ;-) everyone else needs a while 😀. I wish you all a nice week, stay healthy 🙏🏻 and let it grow 🌱👍

This wedding cake is looking as healthy as her sister however she's in a bigger pot 25 liters. Let's see if she does as good as her sister,she's enjoying life right I don't think I'll have any type of issue,she's being fed 100% organically,with lactobacillus liquid made by me,liquid bat guano,and she has in her soil florians living organics and more bat guano and seaweed,mycorrizae,humic and fulvic acids,beneficial bacteria and fungus. She's gonna be a wonderful plant at the end I'm sure. Stay tuned guys! 💚🌱✌️

two of the ladies are on plain ph'd water for the next week or so and two are currently doing 48hours of darkness, then we'll get to chopping. 💚🤟

Week 3 going well. Topped her and doing a bit of lst as well. Week 4 fead her with 25ml off grow auto from living Soils. And did a bit of demolition as well.

Week 3 has passed✔️ LST always with Ennio Morricone🎵 She’s doing very well growing at fast pace with a beautiful green color on the leaves🔥 For the nutrients Plagron as always💜 Foliar spray Plagron vita race once a week💦

05.01 letzten 2 Tage. Die Trichome sind fertig, 5ter Tag nur Wasser. Dli 20-24.

end of week 3 flower so far it’s stacking nicely packing on some trichomes still keeping a very close eye on these gals but so far so good hope it stay that way🌹🌹🌹
