🌸 Week 4 Flower Report: Growth, Challenges & Big Changes! 🌸 Hey, Grow Diaries Fam! ✨ We’re here at Week 4 of Flower, and what a week it’s been—packed with challenges, adjustments, and exciting progress! Before diving into the details, let’s start with a note on my flowering timeline. While this is Week 4, I don’t start counting flower days the moment I flip to 12/12. Instead, I wait for the plants to show true signs of bloom. It’s a small but significant distinction that keeps things accurate and aligned with the plants’ development. 🌱 Defoliation: Timing is Everything! Defoliation is a critical part of the flowering stage, and I typically wait until Day 21. However, this week, I tackled it earlier on Day 17 because: 1️⃣ The room was simply too full. 2️⃣ And most importantly—the Papaya Zoap had other plans! She’s a fighter—determined, defiant, and constantly reaching for the moon. Despite intense training like super cropping, she’s still pushing upward, nearly outpacing the LED lights. Challenges like this remind us of a simple truth: gardening mirrors life. It’s about resilience, adaptation, and unwavering determination. 💪 This week, I added a second SCROG layer. While this net will support the flowering colas, it’s also there to strategically manage the Papaya Zoap. Why? Because experience has taught me that if she grows out of the LED’s range, she won’t finish properly—and that could disrupt the balance for every other plant in the tent. It’s all about teamwork, even in the garden. 🌟 Defoliation was intense, removing nearly all the leaves with stems to clear space and boost airflow. The tent now looks dramatically different! For the full before-and-after transformation, be sure to check out my YouTube channel—trust me, you’ll want to see this process up close! 🎥✨ Switching to Aptus Holland Minerals A major milestone this week: I’ve transitioned entirely to Aptus Holland Minerals. 🌊 From now on, it’s just minerals—no more organic inputs. This marks the start of a new chapter, and I’m incredibly curious to see how the plants react to these changes. Here’s the current nutrient mix: • System Clean: 0.5 ml/L • Regulator: 0.15 ml/L • RO Water Conditioner: 0.8 ml/L • All-in-One Liquid: 2.1 ml/L I’m keeping the pH at 6.1 and TDS at 556 ppm, and so far, the plants are thriving. This week also included a thorough system clean, ensuring everything runs smoothly as we enter the final flowering stages. 🌿 Bud Development: Pure Magic! The bud formation across all the genetics is nothing short of incredible. Every plant is thriving, and the canopy is lush, vibrant, and full of potential. I’ve raised the PPFD to 750 for this stage, with temps steady at 25°C and RH at 63%—keeping the VPD dialed in at 1.11. The TrolMaster ecosystem, paired with the AutoPots, makes managing these precise conditions seamless. With more time to focus on the plants, I can give them the daily care they deserve. 💚 Shoutouts & Gratitude A huge thank you to my sponsors and supporters: TrolMaster, Aptus Holland, Pro-Mix, Cannakan, and the amazing seed banks. Your incredible products and technology make this journey possible. 🌟 To the Grow Diaries community and all my followers—thank you for your energy, love, and even the challenges from the haters.

Unlike traditional LED systems that project light in a single direction, the ICL-300’s 300-degree design ensures even light distribution beneath the canopy. 🌟 This unique feature means that no part of your plant is left in shadow, creating a balanced environment for lower buds to thrive. Key Tech Specs & Benefits: • 300-Degree Light Distribution: This design fills the under-canopy space with optimal light, enhancing photosynthesis where it often gets neglected. 🌱 • Full Spectrum Output: Tailored to meet the specific needs of plants at every stage, ensuring quality growth from base to apex. • Energy Efficiency: Advanced LED technology delivers maximum output with minimal energy usage, keeping costs down and sustainability up. 💡 • Durability & Heat Management: Built with high-quality materials, the ICL-300 stays cool and reliable, even in intense growing environments. Why It Matters: Under-canopy lighting is a game-changer for growers aiming to maximize yield and quality. Typically, lower buds receive less light, resulting in larfy or underdeveloped flowers. The ICL-300 changes that dynamic entirely by turning shadows into opportunity. 🌟 With light evenly dispersed across the entire plant, you’re not just growing; you’re sculpting a masterpiece. For me, the ICL-300 is more than a tool—it’s a partner in innovation. It ensures that every plant in my grow room has equal opportunity to shine, from the top colas to the smallest buds at the base. When paired with a carefully managed ecosystem, like the one powered by TrolMaster, the potential for consistent, top-quality harvests reaches new heights. This isn’t just about adding light—it’s about adding value, efficiency, and balance to the grow process. I’m beyond excited to see how the ICL-300 transforms the game in my tent, and I can’t wait to share the results with you all! 💚

Fin del cultivo amigos. 98 gramos dejo está nena. Ahora a curar y a probar este hermoso fruto

120x240 1200watt Very strong and hardy plants, the potential of which remains a mystery to me. The automatic watering system will help me find out their maximum. Stress and training are tolerated very well, the genetics are very stable and interesting.

My earliest ever outdoor grow, got planted on 1st of march outdoor with 4 other strains, wich all died because of the temperature that time at night( sometimes -1). This little beauty managed to survive that and went in to flower as small as she was, the buds didnt got as big as i hoped for bud im happy with the result. Buds smell super much like forest fruit or berries and also bit peppery. The color of the buds is amazing

Absolutely love this cultivar, make sure you have adequate ventilation as these buds are very resinous and dense. It was a very nice plant to grow even though it was small in structure made up for the weight in the buds

Smooth trim, last of the first wave of autos this summer - yields are very low but the bud looks great :)

A wonderful genetic thank you Fast Buds ❤️‍🔥🤩 The trim was super easy the buds are FAT & FROSTY full of resin 🤤 I’m very happy with the harvest 103g !! For the light i’ve used the Spider Farmer SE-7000💡

This is a mix I made of Sour dieseland Northern lights. It is a tiny Potter for the contest. It grew great till it got infected late with dudding disease. I have stepped up my sanitation now. Still was a hard, and neat grow. Thank you Mars Hydro. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

7' semaine de floraison 🧘‍♂️ ça grossit pas autant que je voudrais mais ça grossit.🌞 Humm je suis impatient de la fume. 😊 Aucun changement cette semaine , A1 toujours derrière ça sœur. Elles ont reçu qu'un seul apport d'engrais, peut-être il y en aura encore un la semaine a venir . La semaine à venir je prévois une petite defoliation. Âge des plantes 85 jrs et 46' jrs de floraison Réglages culture : Full: 75% IR/UV: 100% à 40cm PPFD : 910 DLI: 74 HR: 40 EC: 2.0 Bonne culture à vous les p'tites ✋️ vertes 🌱🌞🌱 Merci les Growmies qui me suivent ✌️

She’s slowed down her stretching now and started to form her buds, you can tell there’s going to be some amazing colours coming from them as the pistols have some changing orange early (usually in my experience I’ve seen this in purple pink tones in cannibus plants) so be exciting to see how she progresses it will be a pretty garden with all these fastbuds 🙏🤩

Week 3 flowering (a week is 5 days) Both plants begin to seriously flower with some early trichomes on leaves and buds. It seems that Gori is quite in a more advanced status compared to Rilla. I also changed the nutrients compositions following the 3rd week Advanced Nutrients for coco professional program (I calculated EC of every single nutrient and made a custom dosage program for every week according to a more realistic EC value - check nutrients in my diary). Plants are doing well, leaves are beautifully green without signs of nutrients burns, excess or deficiencies. They are watered every day in the morning with fertilized water. Every day I also correct the training of the branches, removing unwanted popcorn/bottom growth and removing leaves that covers buds and leaves that don’t perform well (i.e.: leaves at the bottom that will not take light). 🌱

2nd week of flowering Yes. It does bloom well, I did quite a bit of defoliation throughout the week even completely cutting off the lower branches. All 4 are growing wide and full of colas. I'm happy with what I'm seeing and will not pull more leaves off for the coming week. I have ordered a bottleof Power buds from Plagron and will add it to the nutrients as soon as it arrives (should be tomorrow) bless.

This week I Supercrop all the plants and spred them out over both lights. One more week of Veg and they are ready to explode Check me out on Instagram @growmorestressless

I'll add pictures when it's timed and dried. It's just hanging in the dark

D16: Week 3! :D Weak smell D19: Watered 500 ml each! D21: Watered 500 ml each I top again Lemon for the 2nd time ;) Almost 4 weeks, I'm super excited

Well, this is the first one of flora, they already showed some pistils which are the initial sign of flora and so let's move on today I added 1ml of top bloom from top crop and let's see what happens to this grow I still think it will last a few more 8 weeks until the harvest, any questions feel free to ask or help me with something I haven't seen and I'm open to tips too! =D

Patagonia

Puues ya queda meenos, o una semana si corren o dos, pero no mas. Las puntas blancas! Jajajajaja blaancas infestadas de resina.

The last girls buds just keep growing even thou they look dead and wiltered and every leaf is hanging on by a thread, I love these ladies maybe that’s why I’m keeping them going 🌱💪😂 Another 2 down 😜😜
