Eccoci alal seconda settimana di vegetativa di questa nuova sfida di crescere delle piante di cannabis completamente senza suolo! Idroponica DWC della Mars Hydro sta funzionando divinamente! Le piante stanno molto bene e crescono molto velocemente, rispetto alla prima settimana le radici sono quadruplicate! Non mi aspettavo una crescita così vigorosa fin dalla seconda settimana! Ho già provveduto a fare topping di una delle due, la gorilla melon, mentre la papaya sherbert provvederò a farlo settimana prossima! Sto seguendo alla lettera gli insegnamenti del King texxier! I suoi nutrienti di Terra Aquatica si stanno rivelando fenomenali! Infatti le piante sono in ottima forma e piene di radici! Grazie a tutti voi che mi seguite! Ci vediamo alla prossima settimana! Un buon 420 a tutti voi! 💪😸🌱🌿🧑‍🌾😺😽💨🔥💣💥

Surprised by how well the water is wicked to the medium from the water bottle, it took a long time, but wick works as intended. I was unsure how much if any nutrient would be transferred via wick but the high salt content altered pH at certain parts. Right before the symptoms arose I decided to supercrop the stem top to bottom on one plant, shortly thereafter the burning happened from the same plant from running 8.0 pH, and nutrient uptake ground to a halt on the plant that was dealing with stress. She doesn't seem happy. Remedied with aluminum sulfate, things seem to be coming back to normal. I need to be more careful with salts. I need MOAR knowledge. How many weeks shall we veg? Going to take a while to fill that canopy with just two plants, should probably start topping now but I'll wait until pH problem Is remedied first, a couple more days hopefully 🙏. I defoliated maybe 6 bigger leaves that had burned yellow on one plant, as it comes back to optimal range, this will be a good opportunity to observe the subtle differences that early defoliation can make. Added a pound of tourmaline powder and biochar, both increase soil urease and invertase activities. *2025 Didn't charge the biochar skewing my ph drastically. Urease is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of urea into CO2 and NH3 and is a key component in the nitrogen cycle in soils. Invertase (d-fructofuranosidfructohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.26) is the enzyme that capable both break down α-1,4-glycosidic linkage between d-glucose and d-fructose of sucrose and transferring αβ-D-O-fructofuranoside residue to an acceptor substrate (Toledo et al., 2019). Since tourmaline is widely distributed in the natural environment and has many excellent physical and chemical properties including radiating far infrared energy, permanently releasing negative ions, producing an electrostatic field, releasing rare microelements, and stimulating the growth and metabolism of microorganisms and plants, tourmaline had been conducted to alleviate potential environmental pollution. Perfect for how much seaweed I've added just incase.

Almost the end of her cycle! Thanks to Luuk from Seeds Genetics Co. For the support and good communication. Really nice genetics they have. Give them a try. The results you can see here. Just a few words from me: i love to grow plants, i dont care if its marijuana or garden plants. I know a bit in what stage the plant needs. So im not this guy that is constant working with meters and science and showing this or that. The plants speaks for themselves. The plant needs her building block and i try my best to deliver this to lovely Marie Jane. So people do what you want to do, i do it my way and i only care about the end result. On this Diary there are some haters, im not going to give their names, but luckily they are the minority. For the rest, i really love this growers diaries, it really brings this community together and also its a big playground for the breeders, now we can see the results real life! With my grow, i have 2 phenotype. One with red in the buds, this one smells more punchy. The phenotype with some red leafs and more green buds have a more sweet smell. Both is packed with trychromes, really good for making bubble hash or Rosin... The buds are super big and dense. Mould resistance is very good! The buds are super sticky and she smells very like candy and red fruits. Im not a wine drinking person, so dont hold me on that one. She is easy to grow and will get big fast, so one week of 18/6 light is good enough for 60/80 cm plants🌿💚🍀 i have 3 gallon (11L) baskets Nutrition: im not a person who precisely mesures the food for the plants. As long the pH is correct, also im reading the plants. I always give les then is asked on the bottles. I also give weeks in advance the nutrition they need in the cycle, because plants need this to start. Smell: plant already have a nice smell, very punchy, forest fruits and sweet wood. Health: nice strong plants, will grow big and flower fast! -----------Red Wine-------- Red Wine was created by crossing Rozay F2 with Jet A. They are 2 very powerful aromatic Cali hybrids. This exclusive new Cali strain is a very strong and fast flowering indica-dominant strain. It has an aromatic, intoxicating and relaxing effect. That is comparable to enjoying a good glass of wine. Red Wine has an average flowering time of about 7-8 weeks when grown indoors. Outdoors it is ready fairly early, usually around the end of September. The yield is very good. Indoors she has an average yield of 450-650 gr/m². When growing outdoors, 600-800 grams can easily be achieved per plant. Red Wine has an aromatic scent that can be compared to a full red wine. Her full, purple-green buds are very compact with few leaves. This is very convenient when cutting the plants and saves a lot of time. Smoking this weed gives you a nice high with relaxing properties. The taste of Red Wine is very fruity sweet with an aroma of red grapes. Flowering time: 7 – 8 weeks Genetics: Rozay F2 x Jet A 30% Sativa, 70% Indica Plant height outside: 100 – 180 cm Outdoor harvest month: from June to October Yield indoors: 450 – 650 gr/m² Yield outdoors: 200 – 800 gr / plant THC: 25% Red Wine from Seeds Genetics Co.

Day 35 – The Pineapple Express is stacking on some dense bud formations with increased frost. Some of the pistol hairs are beginning to turn orange. She is maturing fast. She gained about 2” in height this week, but vertical growth is slowing. Continuing to feed the Nectar for the Gods nutrients and have added Triton’s Trawl (liquid fishbone meal that is rich in calcium from fish cartilage and is designed to deliver flavor, aroma and color to the finished product) and Aphrodite’s Extraction (a rich blend of sucrose, fructose, chelated nutrients, and organic acids necessary for enzymatic activity, and a complete balance of vitamins A, C, D, E, B1, B6 and B12, which are essential to a plants’ biological growth processes). These two additions are known to increases oil, resin, frost, and terpene production in flower. Continuing to add Recharge as a soil amendment to establish colonies of beneficial fungal and bacterial microbes. Temperatures are consistently between 74° - 78° and humidity between 30% - 45%. Soil pH is 6.5 and PPMs at 321 which is perfect for the Nectar for the Gods nutrient line. Added a homemade Co2 generator to boost carbon dioxide levels and to improve overall plant growth and health. – Zannabis7 Day 36 - Fed the Nectar of the Gods nutrients as indicated above and in photo. Added Recharge to the nutrient mix for microbes and to aid in the breakdown and uptake of nutrients. - Zannabis7 Day 39 - Fed the Nectar of the Gods nutrients as indicated above and in photo. Again added Recharge to the nutrient mix for microbes and to aid in the breakdown and uptake of nutrients. Also did some very light defoliation and more leaf tucking to expose flower sites - Zannabis7

I've changed the EC level to now 1.5, and i've set the pH to 5.6. The stem is looking strong and healthy. Moving into Flowering stage. Note - Added in a carbon filter on the extract fan, to keep the smell down as on a warmer day they was a little strong, all working perfectly. Can't wait to wrap these up :)

This week the time had come, the plants were chopped down. They were left to dry for almost exactly 7 days, a little too long as it turned out. One head bud had to be removed due to the risk of mold. All in all, the harvest turned out to be smaller, certainly also due to the fact that I could only grow three plants on 50x50cm in their vegetative stage to a limited size at the beginning.

Day 23 - Annoyingly, one of the main shoots snapped off after I pegged it down. It was fine when I left it, but as it is such a vigorous grower, it snapped off under the pressure of its own growth. All is not lost, as I will top it 4 times instead of my usual 3, to make up for the lost buds. This plant appears to be a BEAST so I think she can take it no problem. I should end up with 24 glorious main colas and a load of b-grade for the hash making pile! I gave her around 2 litres of treated water (see germ page for details). Around 500ml directly into the base of the plant, and the rest spread around the pot. It's important during this late vegging stage to water into the edges of the pot as much as possible, and encourage maximal root spread. Big roots = big fruits She's starting to smell earthy! Day 28 - she doesn't need any water today. The pot is still heavy. She's growing fast, so I'm confident I can top her one more time. I've pegged down 4 of the arms into a circle shape around the edge, and tied two arms together pointing vertically straight up. It should look stunning in a couple of weeks!

Setted up this cutting of Skywalker. Having some initial problems with air and humidity. Hopefully is going to rain soon so humidity will rise a bit. Planning to do some LST and ScrOG. I'm helped by a friend because my skills are not good enough yet. Let me know if you liked the sequences! I'm trying to do some timelapse research as well. Raspberry is running the timelapse and compiling the video I'm trying to update every day or two. 😷7/12 Changed water due nutrients deposit. Clean start as the roots have touched the water. EC 1.5 Ph 6.2 😵Ps. light was set with VEG and BLOOM BOTH ON! Lol, hopefully this is the 5th day 😂

Hallo Freunde 👋 growers Love to SweetSeeds✌️🍀💚🍀 Diablo Delight ist nun in seinem Medium! Auf das er groß und stark wird 😀, bis dahin keep Green and grow High ✌️🍀💚🍀

End of Week 9 of Flower. I can just taste those buds now! The smell is intoxicating and the view is picturesque. There is definitely a noticeable difference between the two pheno's but I suspect both will pack a good punch. There has been some purpling in some of the top leaves which I expect will increase with the drop in temperature the last week or so. I cant wait to get some good pictures at the end of the week as Ive decided the chop day will be this coming Sunday. The clash of yellow, purple and green is always my favourite so I plan to capture as much as possible since the next update will be jam packed with pictures of the girls just before their chop and after 48 hours of darkness to get the last of that resin production from the plant. I will also take some pics of the hanging plants in the drying cupboard. The reason I am leaving my plants in darkness for 48 hours before they get chopped, is that it has been long belived that this practice will increase the last of the thrichome production and some say increases potency. There has been a recent study in the Netherlands which does confirm increased resin production for plants left in 48 hours of darkness (they also tested 24 hours darkness but found 48 was better) at the end of their flower cycle. The chop has been planned to be pretty straight forward where I will just be taking off the main fan leaves and leaves with no thrichomes as well as chopping off the larfy/popcorn buds which will go straight in the freezer for a fresh frozen bubble hash run. I dont bud wash my flower as my tent gets a regular clean each week and always gets a full deep clean when every harvest is over and besides, its only me and my friends that smoke it! The drying cupboard I use for drying is a small cupboard designed for storing and drying clothes which I have put a carbon filter and fan as well as a small desk fan to circulate the air as well as a small dehumidifier just incase there is an increase in humidity. So the basics of drying is that you want the area where you are drying to be dark and fairly cool (its recommended to be between 15 and 22 degrees C), have a humidity level between 45% and 55%. I aim for around 21 degrees C temperature and 50% humidity. The drying time can vary depending on strain but its recommended to dry the buds for 7 - 10 days and I will explain further about how to tell if your bud is done drying and is ready to be cured on the next post. Drying is very important as you can affect all your hard work if the conditions arent right and the bud ends up too dry (luckily these days there are ways to fix bud thats too dry) or you end up with mouldy ganja which isnt save to smoke. Its also believed that a good long dry in good conditions helps increase potency and also has been shown to reduce anxiety. Anyway thats it for this week and I hope to see you all on the final post for the end of Week 10 of flower and the harvest! Until next week. ✌️

Began flowering early this week. Installed drain tray for bottom watering all pots. Watered with recharge, kelp, fish emulsion. Top dressed with castings and compost. Installed scrog. Lights at 80% and being raised toward 100% daily

Welcome to Week 17 of our epic Lego Ninja Tropical Tangie Run! This week, the garden symphony hits a crescendo as we approach harvest day. The trichomes, those tiny crystal sentinels, stand guard over buds that have matured into a sight to behold. Reflecting on this journey, from seed to the imminent harvest, is like revisiting chapters of a captivating story. Our Tangie, a botanical warrior, weathered every stage with grace. From the early days of nurturing to the defiant stretch of vegetation, she embraced the scorching sun and danced under the grow lights. The art of defoliation sculpted her canopy, and the scrog net became a stage for her floral performance. As she enters the final act, the trichomes, like miniature crystal cities from heaven, sparkle with the promise of potent delights. The ninja buddies and I share a moment of anticipation, knowing that soon, the harvest symphony will commence. In the midst of this, I offer you a teaser timelapse, a sneak peek into the visual poetry that will unfold in the full 8 minutes version (if grow diaries gives e that honour as at the moment cant upload anything over 100 megas with is kind a small file for videos)—capturing the essence of a Lego Ninja Tangie's journey from a tiny seed to a bountiful harvest. Join me in this reflection, a pause to appreciate the magic in each leaf, bud, and trichome. This journey has been a testament to the harmony between nature, science, and a touch of Lego Ninja magic. As I prepare for the final curtain call, I extend my deepest gratitude to @DutchPassion_Official for their stellar genetics, Aptus Holland for being the backbone of my nutrient regimen, and Grow Diaries for providing the canvas to paint this green masterpiece. Stay tuned for the grand finale, where we'll witness the Timber Symphony as each branch meets its destiny. Until then, keep the ninja spirit alive, and may your gardens be evergreen! As always thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all , this journey of mine wold just not be the same without you guys, the love and support is very much appreciated and i fell honored and blessed with you all in my life<3 <3 <3 #aptus #aptusplanttech #aptusgang #aptusfamily #aptustrueplantscience #inbalancewithnature #trueplantscience With true love comes happiness <3 <3 <3 Always believe in your self and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart , be a giver and the universe will give back to you in ways you could not even imagine so <3 <3 <3 Friendly reminder all you see here is pure research and for educational purposes only <3 <3 <3 Growers Love To you All <3 <3 <3 P.S- I must extend my sincerest apologies for the missing video reports. Regrettably, Grow Diaries is still facing some technical issues that are preventing me from uploading them. Rest assured, as soon as the situation is resolved, I'll share those videos to give you an even closer look at this fascinating journey. or in my case apparently GD dont let me do uploads over 100mb with is super small file if you working and editing videos .

Tag 39: Die Pflanze hat ihren stretch beendet und geht in die

Day 79 11/28/2021- Welcome to week four of flower. Today fed nutrients and did a defoliation to take off the smaller buds that won’t get enough light. Day 81 11/30/2021- Just water her today. Day 82 12/01/2021- Trying something new. Day 83 12/02/2021- Water day for them. Also camera needed update but made it work. IOS/ANDRIOD PAR METER APP. It is very accurate highly recommended this for everyone. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/photone-grow-light-meter/id1450079523 Day 84 12/03/2021- Last day of the week, and Wow the grow is amazing!

This week I tried to let them go, only did some gnat hunting with the vacuum to keep populations down. Sunshine found a great way to hold the plant down with some thrift store Christmas light fixtures. At the end of this week, I tied the remaining upward stalks down and away. The final bits of training before we can hopefully go towards flowering coming week. I did some foliar feeding also to help the soil dry out a bit, also to fight the gnats. Maybe overdid it a bit with a few yellow points on the leaves. On to flowering!!

Day 88, 30th of October 2020: I am just back from my holiday my friend looked after her really nice the 4th week already and buds are coming nicely along.... Great to see this beautiful lady very stinky by the way.... Smell is strong...🤪 She is very nice.... ;) I removed some leaves getting pointless to be as she focuses more on the buds.... Those leaves were removed from the top mostly.... Now she gets one day extra darkness and but previously she had more dark hours than 12 hours because she was removed in the morning and back in the evening because she is in the tent with other plants and they are in veg now....🤪🤣🤣 I just started changing the schedule for those as well so from tomorrow no need to remove her and putting back.... ;)

Chopped the second Frostbanger after a week's flush. As you can see from the pics she is a beauty. Very good leaf to bud ratio will be easy to trim. Smell is strong. Next up will be the gorilla zkittles. Which is the biggest in the tent by far. But it's taking a while to ripen up. Then that's just leaves 1 frostbanger which I planted a couple weeks after the rest. The Frostbangers are just like photoperiods. Even for F3s they have been very stable. I can't wait to try the F8 banana purple punch 😳. This will be the last update unless I decide to add a week for the plant that's behind. Which also looks very good. If not I'll do a review and give the final weight in the next update. Very happy with this run. 🌱❄️💨

📁 Folder #10 — Sour Diesel Week 2 Veg | 18/6 Light Cycle This Sour Diesel is moving exactly as she should — slowly, steadily, and with confidence. No rush, no stress, just healthy foundational growth. She is currently in early vegetative development, working through her 3rd to 4th pair of true leaves, with compact internodal spacing and well-formed foliage. Structure is clean, leaves are vibrant, and overall posture tells me she’s comfortable in her environment. This plant is not meant to be pushed — she’s meant to be understood. ⸻ 🌱 Plant Status • Stage: Week 2 Vegetative Growth • Light Cycle: 18/6 • Height: ~10 cm • Leaf Development: 3rd → 4th pair forming • Growth Pace: Slow and steady (as expected) She’s building roots and structure first — exactly what we want at this stage. ⸻ 💡 Lighting & Environment • PPFD: ~400 µmol/m²/s • Distance to Light: ~1.75–1.80 m • Why this PPFD: At this stage, the goal is root development and node stacking, not vertical stretch. Lower PPFD encourages calm, efficient photosynthesis without stress or unnecessary elongation. 🌡️ Temperature & Humidity • Day: ~28°C • Night: ~18°C • Relative Humidity: ~75% This VPD range keeps transpiration active while allowing roots to work efficiently. ⸻ 💧 Irrigation & Substrate • Water Uptake: ~0.3 L per 24h • Solution pH: 6.0 • EC: 1.0 • Solution Temp: ~21°C • Substrate Temp: ~22°C Watering is steady and predictable — a very good sign at this stage. ⸻ Nutrition Program (and WHY) All inputs are chosen for root health, microbial activity, and long-term vigor, not speed. Root & Growth Support • Plagron Terra Grow — 2.5 ml/L Primary vegetative base nutrient, providing balanced NPK for controlled leaf and stem development. • Power Roots — 1 ml/L Stimulates root mass, lateral branching, and early nutrient uptake efficiency. • Pure Zym — 1 ml/L Breaks down dead organic material, improves substrate oxygenation, and keeps the root zone clean and active. • Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L Early metabolic support, helping enzyme activity and setting the stage for later terpene expression. 🌿 Foliar Application • Vita Race — 2.5 ml/L (foliar spray) Applied generously — real showers, not misting. This boosts chlorophyll production, trace element uptake, and overall leaf vitality during early veg. ⸻ 🧠 Expectations (and what NOT to expect) What to expect: • Compact structure • Strong leaf posture • Slow but healthy node development • Root-driven growth What NOT to expect (and that’s okay): • Explosive vertical growth • Stretch • Large water consumption • High PPFD tolerance (yet) This phase is about foundation, not performance. ⸻ 🌬️ Final Thoughts — The Legend Herself Sour Diesel is not a strain you rush. She rewards patience, consistency, and restraint. Everything about this week confirms that she is: • Comfortable • Stable • Responding correctly No adjustments needed. No pressure applied. We let her do what legends do — build quietly before they speak loudly. On to Week 3.

With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.
