Grow Journal Week 3: Bloom Phase Progress 🌼 Hello dear growers and growerettes, I’m thrilled to share the third week of the bloom phase in our grow journal! Here are all the details for Week 3: Weekly Progress We are at the end of Bloom Week 3, and the plants are thriving! Even our previously problematic plant has made a full recovery. My favorite plant, the one on the left, has claimed an entire half of the tent for itself. The stretch phase has now concluded, and I am very pleased with the results. Watering and Control Systems The watering system is operating smoothly, even with the increased water consumption of the ladies. The Blumat and TrolMaster systems are working without any issues. Challenges In Week 2, I performed a heavy defoliation since I had some time that day. Although it was a bit early, the ladies have recovered well. Due to limited time over the past two weeks, and this likely continuing until the end of December, I've been doing my best to keep the journal as current as possible. Goals and Expectations In the next two weeks, I expect my buds to start swelling, and I am very excited about this development. Thank you for following along, and stay tuned for more updates! 🌿✨

It has been a week of amazing growth for the Xtrakush too. What an amazing plant this is. Resilient, enormous growth, it was only last week that we took out her brother. It turned out to be male, which is why we planted two in one pot. Already she has taken up its space almost entirely. And the bud growth is also something I haven't seen before. This can really turn out to be enormous buds if the buds grow out like advertised. All in all a great week with lots of activity on my part to facilitate these results. We are three weeks into flowering, the deadline I set myself from where I'm allowed defoliating the underside. To prevent stress, but also to maximize growth I hadn't touched them all grow. Also, I made the flowering amendments, it didn't seem they needed anything so I waited a couple of weeks. I made a mix of 2 cups worm castings, 2 cups bonemeal, 1 cup of micro life (per plant) and mixed this. I dropped this on the soil around the stem. In just a day another amazing stretch happened. The combined defoliation and added nutes gave a boost they seemed to love. I watered with a heavy mix of BAC organic flowering, Topmax and Calmag, and a one in 6 mix of my trusty permaculture tea. This SP 3000 is performing so well. Thanks again @MarsHydroLED for letting us try it. We are believers! If you are in the market for a light, give this one a chance!! Thanks again for all the likes, comments and the people following! Only 6 more weeks to go!! Big hug!! Bud

Blüte Woche 8 Die Pflanzen entwickeln sich mega In dieser Woche habe ich denn EC wieder von 3,0 auf 2,5 heruntergesetzt. Bei der Pflanze hinten Rechts gibt es keine weiteren Verschlechterungen oder Verbesserungen zu erkennen, aber sie entwickelt sich auch weiter, nur langsamer und anders :-). Trichome (THC) entwickelt sich sehr heftig.

Right before harvest I took some more videos and photos of the ladies.

**Encontrarás la traducción a español al final de la descripción** From/Desde: 22/02/19 || To/Hasta: 28/02/19 From day/Desde día: 1 || To day/Hasta día: 7 -----INTRO----- Hi Buds!!, this is my new diary, the first i made while growing, as the other diaries i have were made close or after harvest. This is my second indoor grow, you can check my first indoor grow here (Auto BlueBerry Mazar x4): - https://growdiaries.com/diaries/24700-auto-bbmazar-x-4-1rst-indoor-60-to-90 Also i have a couple of diaries of an outdoor grow series (my first grow experience) that i made this summer, there you will find Lemon Zkittle, Think Big, Auto GlueBerry, Critical + 2.0 Auto, Auto Girl Scout Cookies & Auto Mazar (some are in progress and some are to come), check my user page if you are interested: https://growdiaries.com/grower/abducted. This time i'm going to grow 2 different Feminized Strains, 2 x Gorilla Glue @Dinafem & 2 x Money Maker @StrainHunters, i will make separate diaries as suggested by @GrowDiaries. You can find the Gorilla Diary here: https://growdiaries.com/diaries/25675-makingmoney-with-gorilla-mm-vs-gorilla My expectations inspired by @TOTEM awesome Man-Linning Dr. Grinspoon plant (https://growdiaries.com/diaries/18090-dr-grinspoon-by-totem) are to try to perform a small Man-lining in both plants or in one of them, i'm still guessing. I'n not trying to reach the kind of monster TOTEM has, as i don't have equipment nor even place. Also i want a max 3,5 months grow, so i'm planning 4 or 5 weeks of growing, and my pots are just 8l, but i want to see where i reach with a feminized strain and with the equipment i have, trying to apply technics for first time. I just LST'ed a Lemon Zkittle, but i wasn't a really LST. -----IMAGES & VIDEOS----- Photo 1: Seeds stocked from summer Video 5: Timelapsed planting non germinated seeds Photo 9: Somangos at back, they've grown almost wild outdoors, tomorrow (02/03/19) i will harvest them. You can see the first weeks of that Somangos in this diary (weeks 1 to 7): https://growdiaries.com/diaries/24700-auto-bbmazar-x-4-1rst-indoor-60-to-90 Video 16: Timelapsed transplantation -----WEEK SUMMARY----- This week is the setting up medium week, the day 21 (22 already as were 4:40 a.m.) i prepared small pots with soil as seen on images and videos and buried the seeds at about 1 cm deep, in this case 2 Gorillas and 2 Money Makers. After buried i irrigated the pots with 2 syringes of 60 ml on each. And put them under a 50W Led (pink/purple light), you can see the process in video 5. The first gorilla (A.Gorilla) showed itself few minutes past day 23, the day 24 at about 00:00, the second Gorilla (B.Gorilla) emerged the same day 24 at 15:44, the first Money Maker (B. Money) appeared the day 24 between 23:30 & 00:00 and the last money (A.Money) appeared the day 25 at 13:50. The day 28 i transplanted the babies to 8 l pots (Root Poch), you can see the process in video 16. -----WATERING CALENDAR----- 22/02/19 - 120 ml with all week nutrients @ 0.4~0.5 E.C. PH5.5 24/02/19 - 10 ml with all week nutrients @ 0.4~0.5 E.C. PH5.5 (over buried seed) 28/02/19 - 1.500 ml with all week nutrients @ 0.4~0.5 E.C.

Esta es mi segunda experiencia indoor, podéis ver la primera en este diario (Auto BlueBerry Mazar x4): - https://growdiaries.com/diaries/24700-auto-bbmazar-x-4-1rst-indoor-60-to-90 También tengo unos cuantos diarios que forman una serie de cultivos correspondientes a lo que he plantado este verano, que ha sido mi primera experiencia. En ellos encontrarás las genéticas Lemon Zkittle, Think Big, Auto GlueBerry, Critical + 2.0 Auto, Auto Girl Scout Cookies y Auto Mazar (unos los estoy desarrollando ahora mismo y otros están por venir), si están interesado visita mi página de GrowDiaries: https://growdiaries.com/grower/abducted. Esta vez voy a crecer 2 genéticas feminizadas diferentes, 2 Gorilla Glue de @Dinafem y 2 Money Maker de @StrainHunters, haré diarios separados como recomienda @GrowDiaries. Podéis encontrar el diario de las Gorilla aquí: https://growdiaries.com/diaries/25675-makingmoney-with-gorilla-mm-vs-gorilla Mis expectativas para este cultivo son introducirme en alguna técnicas de cultivo, inspirado por la increíble Dr.Grinspoon de @TOTEM alineada desde el principio (https://growdiaries.com/diaries/18090-dr-grinspoon-by-totem). Voy a intentar hacer una alineación principal pequeña en una de las plantas o en ambas, aún estoy decidiéndome. Por supuesto no voy a intentar crear un monstruo como el de TOTEM, pues no tengo ni el espacio ni el equipo adecuados, además de que quiero que el cultivo no me sobrepase los 3 meses y medio, por lo que planeo hacer 4 o 5 semanas de crecimiento únicamente, también está el hecho de que mis tiestos son de 8 litros que no es demasiado, por lo que quiero ver hasta donde llego con una genética feminizada y el equipo que tengo, intentando aplicar las técnicas de cultivo principales por primera vez. Este verano le hice LST a una Lemon Zkittle, pero no fue un LST verdadero. -----IMAGENES & VÍDEOS----- Foto 1: Mi stock de semillas desde verano Vídeo 5: plantando las semillas en TimeLapse Foto 9: En el fondo unas Somangos, han crecido medio salvajes en exteriores, mañana (02/03/19) haré la cosecha.

Hit with a hard feed today seem like they want more then I been feed how can you tell if they need more food ??

Weekly up date on these gorgeous ladies. They are stacked and swelling amazing going through the flower stage. I really couldn't be happier with how these have grown as it's an easy one not being to temperamental. I've kept the ppm/ec around the same between 900-1100ppms. Still feeding 16oz daily and all in all Happy Growing.

COLOMBIAN JACK by KANNABIA Week #10 Overall Week #9 Veg This week she's looking good no issues to report she's dealing with the elements like a Champ. Stay Growing!! Kannabia.com COLOMBIAN JACK

Day 35, start of week 2 in flower, everything is going great so far✌️🏼🌱 Day 37 - All the ladies are looking great✌️🏼🌱 Day 38 - ladies got watered today, looking good & starting to put off a nice smell😍 Day 40 - Still have a lot of yellowing leaves towards the bottom of almost all the plants can’t figure out exactly what’s wrong😅😅

Posting the phenos when I do them

Hello Growers and Tokers! 👋 👩‍🌾 🧑‍🌾.🔥💨 Sorry for the delay on the weekly updates, had some things I had to attend but I'm back and at it! 21-day defoliation has come.. These pictures were taken on day 20 of flower Nice progress with these ladies, I honestly did expect them to stretch this much. They were pretty heavy on leaves so I did a bit of cleaning of big fan leaves and bottom useless growth.. I admit, went a bit too far with one of them. Should've left a few more fan leaves behind.. 😪😓 Other than that, things are looking good. Bud sites are more visible, sure hope they keep growing out. Stopped adding grow nutrients, only bloom now. That's it for this week hope you're enjoying this progress like I am. Have a good one! One love!

420Fastbuds FBT2307 Week 9 What up fellow growers. Weekly update for these three amazing girls. All seem to be growing good even the one to the left that's been fighting me the whole grow. The other two's flower sites are swelling up nice at this stage of flower. The middle one has decided to go into beast mode since transitioning into flower showing growth daily. Over all no big issues to be to worried about getting some fade/yellowing in the leafs but over all Happy Growing.

Here we are again to tell you about this crazy strain that we found: White Truffle by Zamnesia, worked with a main lining sent into flowering very quickly due to the arrival of the heat. We can spend two and a half months doing main lining but guys it also depends on the times and many other factors, if it were up to me I would always make trees but you have to adapt. ** We remind all users that we grow two plants per strain, one worked with specific techniques and the other left to grow freely this was main lined. Description // This plant was worked with a main lining, having very irregular internodes it was complicated to decide what to keep and what to leave but in the end the plant is not bad at all. The flowers are very particular we have pure polypeptide flowers that have given us a very particular shape. The resin is also very good and after 48 hours of darkness there is that effect that only the dark finale can give, do not give up on this procedure especially in periods of less resining like summer. Trichomes and maturation // We did a thorough microscopic analysis 10x (and 10x x 1.6) and noticed a good percentage of milky/lumpy trichomes; The percentage of amber trichomes was also excellent and still a bit transparent, but that's fine for us as we're not crazy about THC oxidation and hyper indica effects around here. Here too some red head trichomes I had mistakenly said that they are a little rarer but obviously I was wrong sorry guys and girls. Fertilizers and soil // We used the Plagron organic fertilizer range, all the recommended additives and Pro Mix soil, both unfertilized and organic. Calculate the dosage according to your needs on the website ------ https://plagron.com/ The nutrients are available in convenient packs on the Zamnesia website --------- https://www.zamnesia.io/en/11457-plagron-easy-pack-natural.html Try this strain, it's an autumnal crazy delight ---- // https://www.zamnesia.io/11184-zamnesia-white-truffle-seeds.html Zamnesia Brief Description // The product of crossing GG with Peanut Butter Breath, White Truffle boasts a first-class genetic line, taking the best from some of the best American cultivars.

She bulk. Seeing some buds looking near finished, all hairs turning in, calyxes totally formed. Gonna let em go and hopefully the frost can grow.

…

01/17/2026 No changes to nutrients today. However, from last week to this week, the EC and TDS have increased. I'm guessing the nutrients from the hydroton are leeching in to the bucket. Probably a good thing. That way I don't need to make any adjustments right now. No roots today. Oh well. Not too sure how she's doing. She has the right amount of nodes, but she isn't really growing. Still 2" tall. I know she's still working those roots, but still I should at least see a root. Just 1. But I see nothing. I increased the light intensity to level 2. See readings below. So far she seems to be happy with it. It's been a couple hours and I'm not seeing any signs of stress. Still very green and pretty sturdy. If I'm guessing right, I don't think this little lady is going to get very big. I can just tell. But we'll have to see now. I hope I'm wrong. This is one of my absolute favorites and my first time growing it. I'd love to see a nice plant with long colas thick with trichomes. But we'll see. Weekly Readings: Water Readings: pH: 6.3 EC: 1012 TDS: 500 Temp: 70° Lighting: DLI: 21.6 PPFD: 318 Environment: Temp: 75° RH: 62% VPD: 1.07 kPa CO2: 754 01/18/2026 We have a root! Just 1 root. Lol, but it's a root! I knew we'd see roots before the Apple Strudel I'm also running. It keeps stretching. So it wasn't focusing on the roots. This little lady, on the other hand, barely stretched. I was concerned at first, but now it's fine. She'll start to grow significantly soon enough. Probably tomorrow we'll see some impressive growth. Or well the start of it. However, her leaves are kinda crinkly. I need to figure this out. Is the light too bright?! No way. No fucking way. The DLI is like 21 mol. And was 16.7 mol. last week. I'm pretty sure this strain likes light. Imma take a peeky peek... Says nothing about lighting. But it does like nutrients and lots of them. I'll have to keep that in mind. Maybe I don't have enough in there. That could be the cause of the deformed leaves. I'm going to find out somehow. I looked it up and I have it narrowed down to lighting or Nutrients. It's really hard to tell when she just started to veg. I honestly should have left it in Germination for last week and started veg this week. Now it's all messed up. Lol. Oh well. So we'll have a 5 week veg stage. But it's still not gonna change the growth cycle. Also, the pH was high. It was at 6.6. So that is now pHed down to 5.8. EC and TDS didn't change at all. Temp was 67° after replacing the ice bottles. 01/19/2026 I think I figured out the issue with the crinkling leaves. The fans at night were blowing at level 6 which is really windy in a 3x3 with 2 fans. Now it's down to level 2 like it should be. Oops. On a better note, she's on her third her node now and looking like she's about to explode with growth. I'm also seeing teeny tiny side branches coming out. So I'm not seeing any issues with growth. So I guess everything is all good. Great color. Nice full leaves. Thin though. Although it is like the first week of veg. We'll see. Oh yah, the water was warm this morning. I definitely need to add ice bottles before I go to bed. No bad smell though, so that's good. Last run I got a brown algae bloom and it wreaked like warm piss. Nasty. So far everything looks good in that regard. I still need to figure out how to get temp in the tent to actually get stable. It can't hold anything. Like if the level goes below 8 on the heater, the temp drops to like 71° like immediately. I don't understand. Last run it was not like this. It hung out at a solid 75° with minimal assistance from the heater. I really don't get it. And the humidity is even worse. The humidity plummets hard. I get that it's winter and the temps are low and the humidity next to nothing, but like damn man. However, I just thought of something. I had my AC running the whole time last run. Just to keep the temp in check and the air quality better. That could have played a major role. Granted it's the exact temp in here that I was keeping it at with the AC. I dunno. Just a thought. Clean air and all. That's all for now. Update: She has 2 long roots now. Looking awesome! 01/20/2026 She's starting to grow now. The roots are getting super long and more are popping out. I have a good feeling about this. She looks great! And seems to be quite happy with the nutrient water. Very green growth. She's definitely healthy and happy. I totally forgot to change the ice bottles out again, so I did as soon as I got out of bed. Saying "shit! I forgot the damned ice bottles!" Lol. I didn't even take measurements as I was like half awake when I did it. Now I'm waiting a few hours while the ice bottles do the thing. Unfortunately, I won't be able to swap them out again until later this evening. I set a reminder on my phone, so I'll remember. As for measurements. I'm not expecting any changes just because there's 2 roots in the water. So I'm looking for the pH and temp. I'll check the EC and TDS, but I don't think those measurements are needed currently. That's more for next week when the growth becomes vigorous, or well should if not already. The lighting is perfect btw, she has a great reach and isn't stretching super fast. Very evenly paced. Slightly praying just like she should be. The environment on the other hand is a solid mess. The humidity is bouncing all over the place because of the fans. But also because I don't have the air filter in the ventilation system yet. I need to change out the charcoal or take it out, shake all the nasty stuff out and put it back in. The carbon isn't bad yet, just clogged. I need some canned air I think. I don't have an air compressor. Lol. But what I think I need to do is dump the charcoal, clean out the mesh from the filter and put the charcoal back in. Gotta wait for my new handy dandy compressed air thingy to come in. 01/21/2026 I finally remembered to switch out the ice bottles last night. The water was somewhat cool. Around 70° f. I forgot to take readings. But I'm pretty good at feeling the temp out. She looks great! Broad leaves though. The description said really thin leaves. We'll see how she turns out. It's really too early to tell what she's gonna do. So I definitely started the veg stage in the diary about a week too early. So now it's like day 3 of the veg stage in real life. We are on week 2 in the diary. SMH. Oh well. I think I addressed this when I started my second week as veg, but I can't remember. So here's a reminder I guess. The heat seems to have caught up. It's now at 75°, but not holding very well. The heater remains on and overheated for like an hour last night. Then it did it again this morning, but I just turned it off for 10 minutes while I swapped out the ice bottles and took a couple pics. Her tiny branches are starting to show more. I can't wait for them to shoot out so I can cut them off in 2 weeks. Lol. I also took a quick measurement. 3.5" tall. We started the week at 2" and have grew an inch and a half in 5 days. Not sure how much I like that. I'd love to see a half inch a day. Up until flowering. That'll give me a 17" plant by flower. If it grows twice that tall, I'll have a nice sized plant. That's based on a 4 week veg stage. If it turns out to be 5 weeks, well, the plant will be much bigger to start. Not much else to talk about today. Kinda just letting her do her thing. I've observed. She's healthy, happy and a beautiful green. 01/22/2026 We have foliage! Wow. Like overnight boom. Right on time. Now there will be some vigorous growth. What happened here? Oh I was busy. My bad everyone. 01/23/2026 The water was a bit warm this morning. I think I need to swap these bottles out every 4 to 5 hours. Not happening. I need a different solution. Maybe the heater hose needs to go somewhere else. pH: 6.1 EC: 1059 TDS: 540 Temp: 68.5 So I bought a hand held air compressor to clean the dust from the air filter. The carbon isn't spent yet, it was just clogged. Now it's unclogged. Lesson learned. Use pre-filter and replace pre-filter when it gets all clogged up. There's still a bit of resistance, but not bad. She looks great. Good color, but it looks like she'll be needing a new dose of nutrients when next week starts. I think tomorrow. Half dose and we'll see what happens. Worst case scenario, it's too hot and I have to swap out a gallon of plain water. No big deal. A gallon would put it down between the 1/4 dose and the 1/2 dose. We'll see though.

Nach der ersten Woche sehen wir deutlich den Stretch Beginn. Die ersten Pistillen sind da und der Rest steht in saftigem Grün. Gegen die Thripse-Kack-Scheiß-Dings-Bums habe ich nochmals eine ordentliche Ladung Florfliegen bestellt. Bei der Größe sollten 500 genug sein. Der Jungel unten rum wird dann mit dem Lollipoppen gerichtet. Das wird Arbeit! Die Watermelon wirkt aber insgesamt etwas ruhiger als die Radical... schauen wir mal nächste Woche! Wer den Einzug ins Zelt sehen möchte, die Folge 7 ist Online!

Update May, 20 Another 1.5l with week 4 dose. Takti recovered from topping. He grew massive leaves as well which wasn’t so obvious while he drooped. I also added training clips and wire to Samy as he grows „longer“. Takti is still too short for that. The clip would be too long. Update May, 18 Watered 1.5L each today. Used week 4 of the feeding schedule, so I skipped week 3. I also inserted a first scrog net to help with LST. I wanted to try using two nets this time, so this will be the lower one. The reason I hadn’t put it in yet was to not cast shade on the plants, so I placed it below everything. It has a nice side use: you can put lower hanging leaves up to make space for the water spray. Can only recommend putting the scrog net in as early as possible, in case you didn’t know that already.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ 😆😆 Update May 17 Another week, another progress update. Had a bit of a stressful situation a few days ago when Takti started drooping. Must be because he had a little root damage during transplantation. You can see it in the pictures from last week. Every other parameter was the same for Samy and he didn’t droop. I still set the light timer back to 20 hours, and he fully recovered. I’ve since increased it back to 21 hours and will go back to 22 in steps of 30 minutes. They are massive chuggers. I give them more than double the water I gave Ryu and Ken in my last grow, and they still handle it like it’s nothing. This week is also topping time. Started the week by topping both of them, as well as defoliating their single-finger leaves and the shoots coming from there. They should be fully recovered by the end of the week. Fingers double-u'd. Last but not least, I uploaded the timelapse, enjoy! I now need something to hold my iPhone in place facing the plants in their larger pots to continue it, and right now I don’t have the money for that. But I’ll see what I can do, maybe I’ll find something and can keep it going. On the upside: before, I was dependent on my gaming PC running to record the lapses. Now my iPhone can record for days without me having to babysit anything, so as soon as I have something to hold it in place, I can keep those going till the end of the grow, no problem.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Stay tuned and happy growing!
