Oh man is she big! Shes been tapering all week, think this will be the last! I may have went overboard, again on the pictures. But I couldn't help myself. Wait and see if I make it ro harvest or if she snaps her trunk first! 😂

15.07.25. Day 46

So, eventful week. Prior to putting my seeds into my system, my light and rdwc system was left on as I was dialling in the growing environment before placing the seeds as a final home. My only issue was I had a light leak BEFORE putting the foil top covers on the clay pebbles. Long story short, I got algae which ended up turning to root rot. I spotted it very swiftly and did a res change adding beneficial bacteria to the system along with the base products of remo nutrients. A few days later new growth and recovery is taking place. Day 16- Fully back on track, new roots shooting out into the water and the growth rate has picked up as it should. Foliar feeding twice a day for a little boost until the root system establishes a bit more. Huge changes in just a day. Can't wait to see what a week's growth looks like. Really loving the sunset/sunrise feature on the trolmaster, something I got to experience watching recently! Watching by closely to make sure everything stays in track. Stay tuned for the next one 😉

Este vídeo fue grabado tres días antes del cambio a 12h y el cambio de malla. Lo siento por la calidad del vídeo pero es con el móvil y el led no ayuda mucho. La 8 ball se diferencia de las otras tres por la maceta y aquí todavía es más alta que las otras...aunque no por mucho..

Hello from Georgia00

# Cash Express by Zamnesia | Pheno B 🌱💰 ## Germination Week | A New Adventure Begins Hello GrowDiaries family! 👋🌱 Welcome to the beginning of another journey. For this run, I've decided to slightly change the way I document my grows. Due to the current photo limitations on GrowDiaries, each phenotype will now receive its own dedicated diary instead of grouping multiple plants together. This allows me to continue documenting every stage of development in as much detail as possible while selecting the best photographs from each week. The goal remains exactly the same as always: To document the entire journey honestly from seed to harvest, sharing observations, successes, mistakes, and lessons learned along the way. Today, we begin following Cash Express Pheno B. --- ## Every Journey Starts With a Seed No matter how many grows we complete, there is always something exciting about starting a new seed. A tiny shell. A hidden blueprint. A completely unknown future. This particular journey follows Cash Express from Zamnesia Seeds, cultivated under a 12/12 from seed schedule from the very first day of life. A method that is a little different from what most growers choose, but one that has become part of my own cultivation style over time. As always, I will do my best throughout this diary to explain not only what I am doing, but also why I am doing it, allowing anyone interested to follow the process from beginning to end. Every phenotype has its own personality. Every plant teaches something. And every run becomes part of a larger learning experience. --- ## Germination With the Cannakan System To start this run, I used the Cannakan germination system. For those unfamiliar with it, the Cannakan is a compartmentalized germination container designed to keep multiple cultivars organized while maintaining a stable environment. Each section can be individually labeled, making it easy to keep track of genetics when working with several varieties simultaneously. The seeds were placed inside using nothing more than plain water. No nutrients. No additives. No stimulants. Just water. Approximately 24 hours later, healthy taproots had already emerged and the seeds were ready for the next stage. Exactly what we like to see. --- ## Why Plain Water? One question that frequently appears during germination is why I choose not to feed the seedlings immediately. The answer is simple. The seed already contains everything it needs to begin life. Nature has already packed the energy reserves necessary for those first crucial days. At this stage, I prefer allowing the seed to do what it was designed to do naturally. The objective is not to feed the plant. The objective is simply to wake it up. Water is enough. --- ## First Experience Using Coco Starter Plugs This run also marks my first experience using coco starter plugs. The plugs were thoroughly saturated with water and then gently squeezed to remove excess moisture while maintaining a healthy balance between water retention and oxygen availability. The germinated seeds were carefully inserted into the plugs and placed inside a humidity dome. The dome did not remain necessary for long. Within less than 24 hours the seedlings had already emerged and were showing signs of healthy development. At that point, they were transplanted directly into small containers filled with Plagron Lightmix. --- ## Environment Environmental conditions were intentionally kept simple. Temperatures remained around 26–27°C. Humidity was maintained between approximately 65–70% using a Spider Farmer humidifier. While some growers prefer keeping seedlings inside high-humidity domes for extended periods, I personally prefer allowing them to adapt relatively early to the environment they will actually experience during growth. The objective is adaptation rather than dependence. Air movement remains extremely gentle at this stage. Just enough to keep the air fresh without placing unnecessary stress on young seedlings. --- ## Heat Mat Temperatures The propagation mat was operating around 40°C. While this number may appear high initially, it is important to remember that the heat source itself must operate above the desired root-zone temperature in order to compensate for environmental losses. The seedlings are not exposed directly to 40°C. Instead, the mat provides the energy necessary to maintain a warm and stable rooting environment, encouraging fast and healthy germination. --- ## Lighting Lighting during germination is intentionally soft. Young seedlings simply do not require intense light levels yet. The goal is healthy establishment rather than aggressive growth. Once these young plants become properly established, they will move under the Future Of Grow Black Series 600W full-spectrum LED system where the real adventure begins. We will begin discussing PPFD and light intensity in greater detail during the coming weeks as the plants become capable of utilizing stronger light levels efficiently. --- ## First Observations So far, everything is progressing exactly as hoped. Fast germination. Healthy taproots. Strong emergence. Healthy color. Good vigor. And most importantly: A strong start. At this stage, every plant is still a mystery waiting to unfold. That uncertainty is part of what makes growing so fascinating. Every seed carries possibilities that cannot be fully predicted. And that is exactly why we document the journey. --- ## Looking Ahead Over the next weeks we will begin following Cash Express Pheno B through the first stages of development. We'll explore: - Root establishment - Early structure - Environmental management - Watering strategies - Light intensity - Growth observations - And whatever unique characteristics this phenotype decides to reveal Because no matter how many times we start a seed, every grow still feels like opening a new book. And this is only the first page. Huge thanks to Zamnesia Seeds for the genetics, Plagron for the substrate and nutrition, Future Of Grow for the lighting, and everyone joining along for another adventure. Grower's Love everyone. 🌱💚

Vamos familia, actualizamos la octava semana de floración de estas Lemon Mandarin de Fastbuds. La temperatura que estuvo entre los 24-26 grados y humedad dentro de los rangos correctos. En cuanto a las plantas pues estas últimas semanas cogimos un poco de trips y pues ahí ando combatiendo con planchas pegajosas de color azul, estiraron bien y ensancharon bastante también. Las flores se están llenando de tricomas y van hinchando, aún con la plaga, por el momento todo correcto, ya aportamos solo agua, queda nada, buenos humos. - os dejo por aquí un CÓDIGO: Eldruida Descuento para la tienda de MARS HYDRO. https://www.mars-hydro.com Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

Starting to do extremely light lollipopping only for leaves blocking budsites or budsites that will not get enough light Day 35: #2 is starting to smell of limonene. #1 and #3 are like 3-5 days behind #2 in terms of flowering. #3 is very slow and the runt of the bunch. Hoping for 3-5 more weeks of flowering before I cut them down. Will likely cut #2 a few days before the others.

ZTRAWBERRIEZ and Gorilla Punch don't need much longer. In this week the pistols all were coloured in orange. The buds did their bulk perfectly. We got temps +30 degrees so in the greenhouse there Are +40 degrees. The following week should get cold and rainy. ZKITTELZ needs a little more time but also is doing good.

Woche 5 Letzte Woche Veg., vorbereiten auf Blüte.

Fresh sweet and herbal smell. I love it! Great amount of trichomes. Everything smooth.

This is my 1st of 4 Banana Purple Punches that was green all the way through, I think the chances of a green plant on that strain about 20% so I hit that almost head on. Also this is the last BPP seed I had, grew 4 and gave 1 away to a friend, which also grew amazing and flavorful. Gotta spread the love (: Loved growing this strain for the last few years one plant at a time. Always a good strain to throw in the mix with some autos. They were free seeds that I will be buying in the future when I run out of buds and begin to miss her distinct effects.

Strawberry Gorilla Automatic - FastBuds Day 64 - watered with 800ml of RO tap water with defined nutrients, mixed in order and then pHd to 6.3. She was quite thirsty this week, so I upped her water to 800ml - her flower has pretty much finished bulking and is now maturing 🙏🏻 another week or two and she'll be ready for harvest I think. She hasn't required much work at all, just slow watering 🙌🏻. She smells really good, her flower is very dense, heavy and multicolored, and her leaves have taken on a yellowish colour on the tops, but underneath, they are dark purple, very very beautiful 👏🏻

For the most part I’ve been letting this lady go natural, pulling the lateral branches down as the reach the edges of the pot to create two “rings” of even colas. She already smells like gas/chemicals/burnt rubber, and she’s not even partway into flower yet. Ended up stretching vertically so fast I had to adjust my lights due to light stress, she’s the tallest lady in the tent. Major defol already done, waiting for her to get juicy!

Flushing dem girls so they dont give headaches!
