Updates During Week 5 Plants switched from pre-flower to flower stage. Loads of stretching starting. Added dry amendments to the soil. Down to earth 4-4-4 at 3 tbsp for each 5 gal pot. I decided to go half dose to see how sensitive the autoflowers would be. So far they are loving it! Added another dose of worm castings. 1 tbsp of worm castings per pot on the 7th. Watering with tap water that is left out overnight/24 hrs with PH down added to bring PH to between 6.5-6.8. Watering every 3 days Plan for Week 6 Ordered Bloom dry amendments Waiting 1 more week into flowering to defoliate bottom leaves. Continuously bending LST fan leaves and bud sites . Going to make Worm casting tea Over all I am happy with how this grow is going. Noticed this strain is very sensitive to watering.

Hulk-Berry- starting to really develop b leaves are much larger and fat!! In 2 weeks we are definitely topping her. RuntZ- slow moving for some reason. 4th set of leaves but still stacking small. I am going to do some bacteria LABS and some SST. 10-27 OK, I added some fulvic/humid acid with Corn SST and Photosynthesis plus. Each one of the plants responded positively. The growth has sped up in development. Okay, all cylinders firing now. Hulk Berry is looking like it’s doing it’s Hulk thing, FINALLY. The leaves are getting larger and it’s trying to touch the lights. Runtz- My 3 little Kings šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ 2 of the3 have the same growth structure and speed. The 3rd one is kind of lagging behind. I loaded an app on my iPhone that measures the DLI. As I become more familiar with how it works, I think lighting will be on point at all stages. ( Daily Light Integral) DLI measures the amount of light hitting your plants. Keeping them within a certain range helps them grow to their peak when growing indoors. 10-29 Making some Corn, Lentil, Barley SST’s today. I rinse first using distilled water. I let each soak in a separate jar containing distilled water and 2-3 drops of seaweed/kelp to kick up sprouting faster ( works with seeds as well).

Hey Leute, Chup Chup die kleine Lokomotive ist stark am Dampfen!!! Die Woche 7 ist im vollem Gange und die Buds werden immer größer ^^ Ich konnte noch schnell genug reagieren, habe mich jetzt bei einem ppm von 1200 eingependelt. Die Hitze von der Lampe ist immens, habe sie jetzt auf 75% dauerhaft reduziert, und die Hƶhe eingestellt, ca 1200 ppfd im ganzen Zelt. Die Lemon Skunk (Red No. 2) rechts hinten macht mir etwas Sorgen aber jetzt ist es auch nicht mehr so lange bis zur Ernte!!! Ich bin mal gespannt ob das mit dem Roten Licht wirklich eine Wirkung hat und ich bessere Buds und früher ernten kann. Sie haben immer noch immensen Durst alle 4 Tage 5 Liter pH und Dünger Wasser. Ich hoffe es gefƤllt euch wie sie aussehen, schade, dass man den Duft nicht durch Handy schicken kann!!! Liebe Grüße Fićo!

It's seems that they weren't happy in the small pots, I decided to transplant and see if the recovered. A new seedling appeared. Raised power of Mars Hydro TS 1000 from 50% to 100% I'm not sure if the leaves are yellow because of lack of nutrients or excess, I'm experimenting with Bio Bizz All Mix. I decided to lay back on nutrients for the moment.

Day 42-49: I had some growth this week primarily on the R3 and some on the CbDream. Very slow on the R2. I’m wondering if it’s just sub par phenotypes. Idk anymore haha. Just waiting to see what happens here. Don’t think I’ll pack it right full next time. And try to concentrate more on 8-12 tops on a manifold rather than 30 smaller ones. Live and learn. I bought an Inkbird heat and cooling controller, seems to be holding my temps and 77 in the day and 69 at night. I decided to go back to week 4 ratios to see if that helps, they aren’t overly different so we’ll see. Runoff for Cali Kush and R2 which are closer to the heater is 5.75 1000 and R3 and CbDream is 6.05-1.2 1400, so plain water for the next couple waterings.

eek 1 Flower – Light Shift, Energy Shift: The Sundae Driver Flip Begins The light has changed. The rhythm has changed. And so begins the next phase of our journey with these two beautiful Sundae Driver phenos—F2 and F3, strong, structured, and ready for the path ahead. Light Flip: 11/13 Schedule This week marks the official light flip, we’ve moved from 18/6 to 11 hours ON, 13 hours OFF. This is more than a timer tweak, it’s an intentional signal to the plants. It tells them: ā€œIt’s time to shift your energy. It’s time to bloom.ā€ Why 11/13 and not the classic 12/12? From past experience, this slightly reduced light period tends to: • Encourage faster onset of flowering • Mimic natural seasonal changes more closely • Push plants gently but clearly into the bloom phase • Slightly reduce internodal stretching, depending on strain It’s a subtle technique for growers who want to bring their genetics into flower with intention, not just automation. āø» Current Plant Stats Both Sundae Driver phenos are looking phenomenal: • F2 (Pheno #2): 7 to 8 solid nodes, well-structured branching • F3 (Pheno #3): 6 to 7 nodes, evenly spaced, healthy top growth • Height: ~40 cm each • Structure: Symmetrical, thriving, ready to stretch They’re not showing pistils yet—no visible pre-flowers, no white hairs, but that’s expected. It’s Week 1 Flower by light schedule, not by physiology. The hormonal shift has just begun. āø» Nutrient Shift – From Start to Top This week also marks a change in the feed program. We’re saying goodbye to Aptus Start Booster and welcoming Top Booster into the rotation. • Why the switch? Because the plants are transitioning from root-zone stimulation to pre-flower induction. • Top Booster is designed to: • Initiate floral development • Begin the phosphorus-potassium push • Provide trace elements aligned with bloom-stage signaling We’re using the same measurements as Start Booster, no shock, no surge. Just a clean hand-off, keeping the biological engine running smooth. Current Feed Includes: • Aptus Regulator • Aptus CalMag Boost • Aptus All-in-One Liquid • Aptus Top Booster (new this week) āø» Environmental Stats – Pushing the Edge, Managing the Heat • PPFD: 760 µmol/m²/s – Measured on the TrolMaster MBS-PAR sensor, dialed in • Temp: 31°C – Yes, a bit high, but the girls aren’t complaining • Humidity: 50% • VPD: 2.23 – High, but within tolerance while waiting for AC upgrade We’re riding the edge this week. It’s warm, it’s dry, but the plants are thriving, showing no signs of stress. Their resilience is a testament to your setup, your genetics, and your love. āø» Looking Ahead – What to Expect We’re now in the hormonal build-up phase. The girls are about to stretch, about to signal floral commitment. Here’s what we might see by next week: • First white pistils • Stretch kicking in • Top growth pushing harder than lower nodes • Nutrient demands subtly shifting—watch potassium and magnesium uptake What not to expect yet: • Buds • Resin • Drastic shape changes That comes soon—but not quite yet. āø» Closing Thoughts – A Sunday Drive Into Bloom This isn’t just a new phase, it’s a new pace. The grow has shifted gears, and you can feel it in the rhythm of the room. Light is shorter. Energy is tighter. But the intention is louder than ever. The Sundae Driver girls are leading us gently into bloom, graceful, balanced, and full of promise. Thank you for following along.

Que pasa familia. Noticias buenas y malas, de 3 ejemplares, uno nos salió hermafrodita. Empezó a formar plĆ”tanos esta semana y al estar tirĆ”ndolos en ramas distintas, cortamos por lo sano y ADIƓS. Quedan 2 subimos cantidad de comida, pegaron buen estirón, y las flores estĆ”n formando sin problema alguno. Dejo muchas imĆ”genes y vĆ­deos de esta semana, y ya deducen ustedes.

She actually grew ANOTHER 31cm this week! She is totally out of headroom now, her top cola will be above the lights in a couple of days šŸ˜‚ Fastbuds do say it can reach 1.4M... 😁 She is also looking quite bushy, I'm guessing this is a result of the earlier FIMing/topping on multiple sites. This may also have lengthened her veg time, but that's ok. I like to grow monsters 😁 😜 Nothing else to the report as I'm just letting her do her own thing. For nutrients I'm using 15g of 20-20-20 mixed with 10L of water. Also added 4ml/L of both Cannazym and Terpinator. This brings it to around 1600ppm including ~300ppm for my clean water. Timelapse Sequence: *** Pineapple Express *** Blue Dream Auto Jack (Not in shot) *** Pineapple Express *** CBD Compassion

I just completed my 8th week since the flip, so I flushed each of these girls by running about 2 gal of water through each. I got the PPM down into the 200s, which is about normal for my hard water. They are all displaying some nice big buds, which smell of sweet coffee.

Hello Diary, The fourth week of flowering is over and we are slowly heading towards the end. Last week I did defoliation, so now there is better air flow through the whole plant. The leaves took on a yellowish color, but the flowers were not affected. They are covered with trichomes that are now visible to the eye and have been given a beautiful dark purple color. The volume of the flowers themselves is smaller than that of her roommates Purple Punch, I hope it will fill up a bit. As you can see in the photos, the Watermelon has a nice shape, it just looks gorgeous to me. In one watering I added Biobizz and that was the last addition of nutrients for her. From now on just flushing. Conditions in the growbox are good, the temperature varies around 25 degrees, while the humidity is around 40%. Now comes the stage when I start observing the development of trichomes through a microscope, it’s a special experience for me, like I’m looking at something from another planet. Here's a brief overview of the week: 11/03/2021 - Day 44. Watering. I didn’t add any nutrients, I just lowered p.H. water at 6.3. Temp / Humidity on the farm - 25.5 degrees and 36% humidity. 13/03/2021 - Day 46. Watering. p.H. I downgraded to 6.4 and added BioBizz as scheduled for the current week. This will be the last addition of nutrients. From now on only clean water. Temp / Humidity on the farm - 26 degrees and 39% humidity. 16/03/2021 - Day 49. Photographing for the end of the seventh week. That’s it for this week, see you soon with a new week. Greetings to everyone who looks at the diary.

July 12th. 49 days post flip. Whatever my plant has been experiencing seems to be getting worse. I can’t see it having a deficiency with everything I’ve been giving it so I’ve just been giving it water. I suspect it’s lockout, or it could even potentially be light burn. At this point I have about two weeks left so going to continue giving it water. I also dialed the lights back from 80% down to 60% to see if it helps at all because the leaves on this thing have been susceptible to light burn from the very start. I will say I think it was a little underwatered this week as when I went to give it tea the leaves were a little turbid. So I might be dealing with a multifaceted issue Regardless the buds themselves continue to fatten, not as large as I would have hoped but we have so many tops I’m not concerned. Still have two more weeks to go for this thing to pack on some weight I will be getting my soil tested at a local university and posting the results here soon. I just ordered the kit. Aside from all this the plants smells amazing and trichome density looks good. I’m super excited for this crop. God bless!

Are the hairs on the top of the buds a result of the bananas i pulled out? I'm not sure what stage i'm at, should I start flushing now or should I wait one more week? If Super Lemon Haze takes 11 weeks to flower properly should I wait the extra week?
