Week 28 – Flowering Week 6 This week clearly places the Pineapple Upside Down in the final stretch of its flowering cycle. We are getting close to the end, and expectations regarding yield are now realistic. The plant produced a large number of small buds that never fully developed, which was anticipated considering the difficulties encountered earlier in the grow. Despite this, the run is not a total loss. There will still be material worth harvesting: the best tops will be kept as flower, while lower-quality buds and popcorn will likely be processed later. Trichome development confirms that we are approaching maturity, with most trichomes now appearing cloudy. This indicates that the plant is nearing its harvest window. Nutrition Nutrition was slightly adjusted this week to better match the late flowering stage. Base nutrients were gently reduced: Bloom A and Bloom B were lowered from 2.0 ml/L to 1.5 ml/L. At the same time, PK was increased from 2.5 ml/L to 3.0 ml/L. In practice, part of what was removed from Bloom A and Bloom B was deliberately reallocated to PK. The intention is to support final bud maturation and density, while limiting unnecessary nitrogen intake at this advanced stage of flowering. Nutrition will remain as-is for this week. Starting next week, feeding will be stopped to allow the plant to finish maturing naturally before harvest. Environment & Light Light intensity was intentionally not increased. PPFD remains around 800–900, which is more than sufficient at this stage and helps avoid excess heat in the grow space. No major interventions are planned from here. The strategy is simple: maintain stable conditions, observe closely, and let the plant finish its cycle without stress. See you next week, and take care.

Lookin good, no more herms so far as I’ve tightened things up hopefully that’s the last of them for good. I installed a 4Inch AC infinity fan and filter as an intake so I have been able to close all of the vents. At this point the leaf strip has proven to be a solid method, I have nothing to compare bud size at this point but just the extra space it opened up is a plus. I’m sure the lowers will be a little more firm and the plants obviously haven’t had to be fed as often as usual so its saving time, water and nutrients. The added microbes have also allowed me to keep my ppm around 1000 instead of 1080ish without any sign of deficiencies. The Mandarin cookies x Dionysus has a little cal-mag issue but that was a trait from the mother which out of 10+ grows all had a cal-mag deficency.

Final week of flower for some and we will start the harvest. Also we flushed the plants at the start of the week. All the plants got flushed and will be given the final weeks as required. All looks good and frosty. Lemon Z and Peyote Cookies look out of this world. Gorilla cookies look good but plenty of variation in phenos

Gorilla Glue #4 x White Widow from Expert Seeds Harvested 2020 - Solo Cup grow While I am not a fan of this plant in hindsight with greater expereince, it was definitely a robust plant. This thing was nearly bursting through the solo cup by the end. Unfortunately, they were really late announcing an extension to the contest at the time and I had already harvested a bit early to make the original cutoff date. ~40 grams and it needed another week or so. I wasn't trying for max yield. I just trained it into a slender candelabra type shape and called it a day. Hindsight -- If I new then what i know now.... I'd shave off 2 weeks from vege and it'd end up the same size. This also would have allowed it to finish before the contest end date. I'd also do my normal addition of vermiculite or perlite to the promix. I was afraid of needing multiple waterings per day as it grew out, so i went with pure Pro-Mix HP, which is only ~20-25% perlite.

02.06. the previous week I took to cutting back everything except 8-10 branches per plant. Each arm remains with sprouts at the top only (like lollipoping but with the leaves still on). I contemplated for a while before doing this an compared with last year's growth. Definitely want less little stuff in the lower region and a cleaner structure overall. TMV on the Quick Sherbet leaves looks contained. White clover growing along well, gave 1g / L of greenhouse feeding bio enhancer. This week is mostly cloudy and rainy so expect slower growth but good progress.

Welcome to my Black Jack..(After looking through my seeds and seen that my packaging for this strain. I've the normal Black Jack, not the FV) I seen this strain in the Sweet Seeds List when asked to pick. And it was a year ago. And I picked it from its pedigree and the fact I didn't do a FV of any kind, nor have I still. (I am actually doing their OG high prize pedigree strain. Even better. I've the Cream Cartmel FV as I got confused) She is a healthy girl in day 35 now. Really healthy. I Broke A few of her walls to bend it as it was all stacked up. (I've tons more pics of her progress hopefully I'll be able to pull up) But, as you can see. Her structure was mainly stacked so she was shaped and I let her nodes go hard as they do when HST'ed not for the fact to get big buds, as that's not when HST Is meant for only. Super cropping requires a lot of early hst. (Its simple you just fell a node by rolling it and bending it to fall where you plan to shape for a few days you need to make sure if sticks as if she's in any stages of rapid growth. She'll just grow straight back upwards Anyways. I've set her up nicely ill put her to flip soon.. After she pre flowers and does that full phase I'll HST and watch her few nodes explode. As she doesn't have a lot of foliage and I lollipopped a lot as you can see. Need to do plants with not a lot of mentinance as I've 21+ atm going. Every plant is healthy.. all at different stages and going according to plan actually an extra week ahead on 3 autos that have already moved into the fattening stage. FC 3000 is turned up to 100% and held at 40% away giving the autos 1000ish ppfd and allowing my whole tent to get more light. I've the light about 130cm up from the floor. Nutrient wise. Looks like a lot. Well if I were doing weeks. Power roots, pure zym are given once every 10 days or so. Alga Grow was stopped on day 30. I did give her she fish force only today. (Day 33 and 2 weeks ago) Terpinator will be applied in a few days and will be every 10 days or so until soft flush (water feeds for a wk, no run-off). ALL NUTRIENTS ARE EVEN DAYS APART AND ENZYMES AND POWER ROOTS ARE USED AS FOLLOW FEEDS. No ph'in as this is organic. TERPINATOR IS 6.4 WITH MY WATER AND I GAVE THAT TODAY 3 DAYS APART FROM HER LAST ORGANIC PRODUCT (As they hold a ph of 4 some are 9. But its organic and true organic soil doesn't need ph'in) only additives need to be brought in line with soil needs if using synthetic nutrients and should not be given near anything that may clash. Rule is if you're giving a different brand/type organic/synthetic don't put them in the same pot that will allow them to mix there ph's as synthetic nutrients require a set ph in soil where as true organics don't. Thanks to sweet seeds for giving me these seeds. Sorry it took so long to get to. Real hardy seeds. 1.3yrs old and they she looks great for a 33 day old lady.

1/9/2023 - Day 7: did a very light foliar feed with some Pure Protein Dry organic fish fertilizer 15-1-1, fresh aloa, and ThermX-70. Mixed this up for some other plants but figured I'd give the girls a light misting. Other than that I have not done anything else, other than moving the plants back into my 2x4 to veg in here for now. My 4x4 is in my drying room, so temps are lower than I'd like at this stage, so this will be there new home for the next couple weeks. 1/13/2023 - Day 11 veg: All plants are coming along nicely. Cups still have some weight, so I still haven't watered, other than the real light foliar feed the other day. Temps have been about 80° during the day and 70° at night, with humidity holding steady around 85%, which is probably the main reason I haven't had to water. So far so good! 1/14/2023 Day 12: noticed a few fungas gnats flying around, so I sprayed everything down with some Dr. Zymes Eliminator. I'm assuming the gnats came from the Earth Box I recently added to the tent for a few more auto's i started. Sprayed the soil and the leaves, so this was the first watering since the seeds were planted.

Got them all stripped down and moved the lights closer. Not going to top them next time, they respond so much more to supercropping. Let me know what you think, if you could take a second to go follow on IG I'll be posting more and more there as I get some stuff to teach people.

Slowly but surely these purple, chunky buds have taken shape! Plus they’re hard as a rock, and they smell like cologne and sweet fruity candy. Extremely excited to chop her down within the next couple weeks as she ripens.

16.08.2026 — Week 10 — Apricot — Harvest Report Everything good must come to an end, my friends. After inspecting the trichomes with my microscope, I found more than 50% amber trichomes. That's my sign to pull out the axe. The weather forecast for next week is also showing some rain. This is the first grow where I've made it through the entire season without any serious mold problems, and I definitely don't want to risk that now, so it's time to harvest. Conditions Although temperatures reached almost 40°C at times, the girls took it like champs. Overall, this grow has been almost completely trouble-free, apart from finding a few aphids hiding between some of the buds towards the end. These genetics have proven to be incredibly resilient and seem to forgive even some pretty harsh conditions. What Did I Learn? This was my first time using Plagron Bat Mix instead of Biobizz All-Mix, and I'm very happy with the results. In my opinion, the girls showed noticeably stronger growth, especially during the vegetative phase. I think I'll definitely use Bat Mix again next year. After exactly six weeks, which is roughly what Plagron states for the nutrient charge of the soil, the available nutrients seemed to be running low and I started feeding with T.A. TriPart. For the final two weeks, I switched to T.A. FinalPart. Unfortunately, I had one small setback during my vacation week when the girls went without nutrients for too long. I'm sure that cost me some yield, and without that mistake the plants would probably have performed even better. But that's part of growing. You learn from your mistakes. Final Words I want to thank every single one of you for following along with this grow. And an even bigger thank you to everyone who took the time to leave comments and share their own experiences. I love sharing both my successes and my mistakes with you guys. That's what makes these diaries so much fun. Thanks for following the journey, my friends! Smoking_Joe_Frazier
