26/07/20 (Sunday) Plants were starting to exhibit signs of light burn so I switched back to the 75W bulb. SVG never seemed to recover from having it's cotyledon damaged so I decided to take a risk and fed all of the seedlings 20-20-20 nutrients except the D.R. which I thought would've suffered shock, so I just watered it. 27/07/20 Decided to mist the plants with a homemade pesticide mix today because they're readying to be introduced as full time outdoor plants in a week or two so their sun basks are getting longer. 28/07/20 Noticed what looks like new growth from the first true leaves of the SVG, fingers crossed it's making progress. 29/07/20 The new growth from the SVG has split into two on both sides leading me to theorize that it's abandoned it's main stem (for now at least) and started two new stems. All other plants are working on new nodes and are showing a steady growth of .5cm a day. I've decided to revert to the 100W bulb because I believe I've misdiagnosed the light burn. 30/07/20 Today I left them outside for their longest sunbask to this point; 7 of their 18 total hours was provided by sunlight. The SVG now has two new 3-leaf true leaves on each new stem confirming my theory. Also starting to see signs of a minor mite problem on one of the leaves of my TT plant (Though it's new growth that wasn't sprayed with my homemade concoction.) 31/07/20 New growth has already begun sprouting from between the new true leaves of the SVG with no visible progress on the 'abandoned' main stem. Also had a power outage for 2 of the plants 18 hours. 01/08/20 Today the plants again stayed out in the sun for longer than previously making 8 hours in direct sunlight. I've decided to keep them in the grow tent for a further week because when I went to retrieve them the Jam was blown down flat by winds and had started to grow bent towards the light, so I doubt it's stem is ready for that daily beating. I raised the soil level and massaged it back into shape and it seems to be back on track. The D.R. is slowly beginning to bounce back from being stunted in the seedling tray and from it's third node (from the bottom up) of 3 leaf true leaves has turned into 5 leaf leaves. The SVG has made a major recovery and seems to be on it's way to even surpassing the others by the end of the week. The TT is officially the sturdiest of the younger seedlings and it's growing right behind the Jam in terms of node development. All in all this week was an overall success growth wise and I'm looking forward even more to week 3.

Have to do something against the one which kisses the LED 😂 so i cropped her very hard. But she bounces back with no Problem

Week 26 – Flowering Week 4 Pineapple Upside-Down continues its flowering phase smoothly this week. No major events to report, which is exactly what we want at this stage. Flower development is clearly accelerating, with a noticeable floral explosion across the canopy. Some bud sites are already showing solid volume, and aroma production is now very present. Foliage quality remains poor and is no longer a focus. At this point, energy is clearly redirected toward flower production, and the plant confirms it visually. Lighting has been adjusted to sit in a productive range: approximately 650–750 PPFD under the canopy and 800–850 PPFD on the main apexes, putting the average comfortably between 700 and 800 PPFD. Environmental control is a priority. Day temperature sits around 27°C, with relative humidity pushed to 70–75% to maintain a VPD between 0.9 and 1.0. This balance is critical during weeks 3 to 5 of flower. A fresh nutrient solution was mixed at the start of the week. Final EC is set at 2.3, slightly higher than last week, mainly driven by an increased PK input. Base nutrients (Bloom A & B) remain unchanged at 2 ml/L. Additives include PK at 2 ml/L, CalMag at 2 ml/L, Cleanse at 1 ml/L, and Balance used to buffer the base water. pH is adjusted to 6.2 and allowed to naturally drift between 6.2 and 5.7. A light defoliation was performed, along with removal of small lower shoots to prioritize apex development. Structural work is now finished — from here on, the goal is full stability and uninterrupted flowering. See you next week!

Hi all. I hope to are all as interested as I am to see what this light can really do. I have been learning g to use l.e.d for the past 3 years and the majority of that has been using Mars Hydro lights. I originally grew for a few decades in HPS 600 watt bulbs and laughed at the new kid on the block ( l.e.d) and its fancy boxing and blurple colours and never saw a tine I could afford the kind of L.e.d that was being used by industrial and pharmaceutical grade growers worldwide. These were always way too expensive to make the conversion worth the benefits to my home growing. I started on the Mars Tsl2000 and soon had 2 , then added an sp250 followed by the very good sp3000 . Having the chance to try this new 300w beauty and its sexy framework too , was an opportunity too good to miss so here we are.It has been a lesson in training for a slight penetration difference mainly between the hps and l.e.d and keeping them in light as direct as I can. They are running at 50% for now as the ladies are just adjusting to the soil mix . The 2 Mexican airline are having a slight issue with the soils strength I think so have only just really started to settle down. I thought one was going to die of toxicity but it has kept going . The Strawberry Pie seem the most settled so far and are beginning to put their next leaf sets out but the six Shooter also has signs of disliking the initial soil mix. A few more days to settle in and a good watering cycle should sort them out better. So not much to really report this early on except we got 6 from 6 as a start lets hope it stays productive. Be well folks

Already in week 7 of our little experiment! They are all growing slower while prioritizing on thickening their buds. #3 is still and will for ever be a problem, though! But we have definitly learned a lot from our fine ladies so far. The smell is getting better every week, mostly consisting of a sour-apple-ring-aroma, which is actually kinda delicious! Adjusted nutrient intake by increasing the amount of Bio-Grow because #2 showed signs of deficiency by her leaves slowly turning pale. Watering every two days due to them living in that small 4,4L pot and probably having an dense root system by now. This is plant #1/3. She has developed the biggest buds so far, even merging some into one huge bud on a few branches.

Incredible how far modern autos have come!

Superguano 35g pro pflanze Gesteinmehl 600g/ rasenkalk 500g ich musste zum ersten mal seit langem giessen.

This run went a lot better than expected. There were lots of problems while in a rush to get the new grow going. But once everything was dialed in, everything started booming! The next run should even put this one to shame with the much healthier plants in the veg room.

New kikiwindsurf Grow dude ! Diary will be updated every week dont miss !! If i can grow you can grow too ! Fuck the dealers and low quality weed now its our time!

I think it’s about flushing time for Gorilla Zkittlez. She stinks up the whole room. Carbon filter ain’t cutting it. Lol Gorilla Cookies on the other hand is getting huge. I think she should pull some nice weight. She’s stacking up trichromes and starting to smell pretty good. A weird smell but it’s good. Idk how to explain it. 😎 That’s all till next week. 🤙🏽💪🏽

Defoliation took all fan leafs off left 3 on top of each main branch Added sonic bloom

Hey guys she got the chop after 11day flush trich production is amazing got some nice colours coming through smell is a bit earthy skunky kind off she is a nice little bush expecting a few oz at least buds are formed perfect no foxtail at all 1 cola got a bit of mold so far the rest looked ok after thoroughly checking trying to keep temp around 65 and humidity around 60 put a video up for the competition of her and a few pics of another gorilla grown in here because she is beautiful ill upload harvest when dry and tested thanks for reading and following this journey happy growing them biggreens guys

Always cool to see what old school strains are all about. If there’s something experience has taught me is that classics are classics for a reason, and that’s the theme of this cycle. The germination was exceptionally fast, followed by the development of a thick stalk and huge broad leafs, this Gorilla surely started strong. Humidity and temperature kept fairly high throughout the week (70%/ 24°C), with regular misting, which they love! So far so good, feels like a happy and healthy seedling. Let’s see what she’s got 💪🌱

Blueberry Muffin – Pheno B | Week 3 The Beautiful Oddball Welcome back to another week of the 8×8 Adventure, where twelve cultivars are being documented individually under a 12/12-from-seed schedule. Every phenotype receives its own dedicated diary, allowing us to follow each plant’s journey independently and observe how unique expressions emerge even between sisters sharing the same genetics. This week brought one of the largest environmental adjustments of the entire project so far. The lighting intensity was increased significantly, moving from approximately 370 µmol/m²/s PPFD to 700 µmol/m²/s PPFD at canopy level. Alongside the increase in light, nutrient strength and water consumption also rose to support the accelerating growth rate. The response throughout the room has been overwhelmingly positive. Growth has accelerated, internodes remain compact, and the plants appear eager for more. ⸻ Week 3 Environment 🌡️ Temperature: 27.4°C 💧 Relative Humidity: 55% 💡 PPFD: ~700 µmol/m²/s 🌱 Medium: Plagron Lightmix ? Growing Method: 12/12 From Seed 💦 Water Consumption: ~0.9–1.2L per day Feeding Schedule Days 18 * EC 1.0 * pH 5.99–6.0 * Approximately 1L Days 21 * EC 1.3 * pH 6.0 * Approximately 1.2L As always, consistency remains the goal. Stable environmental conditions allow the genetics to tell their story without unnecessary interference. ⸻ Blueberry Muffin Pheno B While her sister has spent the last week showing near textbook development, Pheno B continues to be the plant that makes me stop, smile, and ask questions. Not because she is perfect. Because she isn’t. And that is exactly why I like her. From the beginning this phenotype has carried a slightly unusual appearance. Certain leaves developed differently, growth patterns occasionally looked a little unconventional, and she never quite followed the same path as her sister. Yet despite all those quirks, she continues moving forward. Week after week. Healthy. Steady. Determined. Looking at her now, it is clear that she is gradually growing out of many of those early abnormalities. New growth is arriving cleaner, stronger, and more structured than before. The center of the plant is becoming increasingly organized, with fresh leaves stacking tightly around the apical growth tip. She remains slightly smaller than Pheno A, but she is far from struggling. In fact, she appears to be finding her rhythm. The canopy has expanded noticeably during the week, internodal spacing remains compact, and the plant is beginning to develop a stronger framework that should support future growth. One of the most interesting observations is how the newer leaves continue to improve with every passing node. The plant seems to be correcting itself naturally, producing increasingly normal foliage as it matures. It’s almost as if she needed a little extra time to figure out who she wanted to become. And honestly, those are often the plants that end up teaching us the most. While Pheno A currently wins the beauty contest, Pheno B wins the curiosity contest. Every time I look at her, I want to see what she does next. ⸻ Measuring Light: Why We Use a Quantum Sensor One of the biggest changes this week involved increasing PPFD levels throughout the room, so this feels like a good opportunity to talk about one of the most useful tools available to modern growers. The Dr. Meter Quantum Sensor To monitor light levels, I use the Dr. Meter Quantum Sensor, a tool designed specifically to measure Photosynthetic Photon Flux Density (PPFD). Rather than measuring brightness the way our eyes perceive it, a quantum sensor measures the photons that plants can actually use for photosynthesis. This is an important distinction. Plants don’t care how bright a light looks to us. They care about how many usable photons are reaching the leaf surface. A quantum sensor allows growers to measure exactly that. Instead of guessing whether a plant is receiving too little or too much light, we can collect real data and make informed decisions. Why PPFD Matters PPFD tells us how many photosynthetically active photons reach a square meter every second. Measured in: µmol/m²/s This information helps answer important questions: * Is the plant receiving enough light to maximize growth? * Is the light intensity limiting development? * Are we approaching levels that could cause stress? * Can nutrient levels be increased safely alongside higher light intensity? This week, measurements showed the plants were capable of handling significantly more light than they were receiving previously. That gave us confidence to increase intensity from approximately 370 PPFD to 700 PPFD, while simultaneously increasing nutrient strength. The plants responded immediately with stronger growth and improved vigor. This is one of the biggest advantages of using a quantum sensor. Instead of guessing. We measure. Then we adjust. And finally we observe how the plant responds. ⸻ Looking Ahead The coming week should reveal even more about Pheno B’s personality. Key areas of interest include: * Continued normalization of new growth * Branch development * Structural differences compared to Pheno A * Response to increased PPFD * Overall vigor and growth rate She may not be the largest plant in the room. She may not be the prettiest. But she is quickly becoming one of the most interesting. And sometimes the plants that don’t follow the script end up writing the best chapters. ⸻ Thank You A huge thank you to everyone following this adventure and supporting these diaries. Thank you to the entire GrowDiaries community for creating a space where growers can learn, experiment, and share knowledge together. Thank you to Plagron for providing the nutrition and cultivation support behind this project. Thank you to Zamnesia for the genetics, equipment, and opportunity to document these cultivars from seed to harvest. And thank you to every grower, reader, supporter, and fellow plant enthusiast who takes a moment to stop by, leave a comment, ask a question, or simply follow along. The journey continues. 🌱💚? Growers Love and see you next week, little oddball. I can’t wait to see what you do next.

The start was easy as it gets just add water the first 20 days and LST every day. When i saw some of the lower leaves start to change color that's when i started to add nuits. after that it was just following the instructions foxfarm already had laid out for me. I cut back by half in the start of my feeds but by the end of my grow I was at full strength. Testing your run off is key. Cropking send me great seeds and genetics is a great foundation and starting point. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I was very happy I got almost 5 ounces off one plant.
