Running 4 autos in the same aeroponic system isnt ideal as 2 of my plants need to flush this week.. while the other 2 still have about 2 weeks again... its all good tho.. id take it out an flush them individually before harvesting.

Lots of growth this week. They have all been in 2-gallon Pots and I have transferred them all to 5-gallon pots yesterday. All are doing very well. All have started Cal-Mag and Mystic Dream Blood Root.

day 15: flowers start to appear day 16-17: temps go 24 celcius, i throw ice bottles in the res day 25: insane stretch stops flowers fatten up, even crystals around the young budz.

GMO Cookies — Week 8 From Seed (≈ Week 3 Flower — 12/12 From Seed) “Served with extra curiosity.” 🌱 Quick Recap (For Everyone Joining Now) These girls have been running 12/12 from seed from day one. No traditional vegetative phase. They decided their timing — we followed. This is not about chasing more harvests per year. It’s about efficiency, energy management, and less unnecessary labor. We are now at Week 8 from seed, which we consider early–mid flower transition (Week 3 flowering) based on pistil development and stacking behavior. ⸻ 🌡️ Room Conditions The room is looking strong and stable. • Temperature: ~28°C • Humidity: ~70% (slowly reducing) • PPFD: 800–1300 µmol/m²/s (varies per plant height) • Airflow: Heavy exchange + vortex + crosswinds Now let’s explain the why. We are prioritizing leaf VPD, not just room VPD. Because of strong airflow and active transpiration, we can run slightly higher humidity at this stage without creating microclimate issues. Big intake. Big exhaust. Vortex movement. Crosswind fans breaking boundary layers. This allows us to push intensity safely. And intensity is where the fun begins. ⸻ 💡 Lighting Strategy We are not just running a top light. We are using: • Over-canopy lighting • Inner canopy lighting • Under-canopy lighting Why? Because photosynthesis doesn’t only happen at the top cola. Lower sites can remain productive if light penetrates and airflow supports them. Benefits: • More uniform energy distribution • Reduced larf • Better lower bud development • Higher nutrient demand (which we are seeing) This multi-angle light system is part of why we can push EC while still seeing substrate EC remain low. ⸻ Feeding & EC Strategy Current Irrigation EC: ~2.4 Substrate EC reading: ~0.9 That tells us something important: The girls are eating. When runoff/substrate EC remains low despite high input EC, it means uptake is strong and salts are not accumulating. The moment we see substrate EC climbing? We reduce feed EC immediately. End goal: Final week or so → likely water only. ⸻ Current Nutrient Recipe • CalMag Pro • Terra Bloom • Power Buds • Green Sensation • Pure Zym • Sugar Royal (No more Vita Race foliar for now.) ⸻ 🔬 Why We Switched Additives We moved from Power Roots → Power Buds + Green Sensation Power Buds • Encourages flower initiation • Supports generative growth • Helps hormonal shift into flowering mode Green Sensation • PK booster • Adds Magnesium & Iron • Supports enzyme systems & chlorophyll stability • Assists in energy transport during early bulking phase We are now in the stage where roots are established — focus shifts to flowers and energy management. ⸻ ⚗️ Order of Mixing (Chemistry Matters) This is important. 1. CalMag first Our water is very soft. We raise EC to ~0.7 using CalMag before adding anything else. Why? • Calcium stabilizes solution chemistry. • Prevents nutrient lockout. • Reduces risk of precipitation when adding PK later. • Supports cell wall strength during high transpiration. 2. Base nutrients (Terra Bloom) 3. Additives (Power Buds, Green Sensation, Pure Zym, Sugar Royal) Mixing order affects solubility and stability. This is not random. ⸻ 🌿 Plant Development Defoliation was done recently. Result? It looks like nothing happened. The canopy refilled quickly. Structure is strong. Stretch is controlled but active. Stacking is beginning. They are bigger than expected at this stage, to be honest. This is where things get interesting. ⸻ 🔬 Macro Season Begins We are entering the phase where microphotography becomes meaningful. Yes, it’s always interesting. But now: • Trichome stalks are forming. • Resin heads are developing. • Pistil clusters are stacking. • Leaf surface gland density increases. From this week forward, macro and focus stacking will become part of the reports. Not for hype. For documentation. ⸻ 🔮 What To Expect Next Week • Continued stacking • Slight humidity reduction • Possible EC adjustment depending on substrate readings • Increased resin production • Internodal swelling No drastic changes planned — just observation and precision. ⸻ 🤝 Appreciation Section Thank you to: • The long-time followers • The OGs • The critics • The silent readers • The new growers joining • The Grow Diaries platform • The sponsors • And everyone watching quietly This doesn’t happen because I’m alone in the garden.

Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal.

FLOWER WEEK 5: Big Bang | Divine Seeds 💥 ​🌱 FLOWERING PROGRESS ​The Big Bang is hitting her absolute prime mid-bloom phase this week! 💥 The flower production has taken over completely, and the colas are swelling at a notable rate. The canopy is holding its uniform structure above the Scrog line, and the stacking is looking tight and intense. 📈 ​Trichome development has accelerated massively over the past few days, coating the main bud clusters and surrounding sugar leaves in a frosty layer of resin. The pistils are incredibly dense and long, forming thick, hairy white crowns on every single top. Overall plant vitality is outstanding as she continues to channel all her internal resources into maximizing bud volume and flower density. 🕸️✨ ​💧 NUTRIENT FEEDING & WATERING ​I’ve dialed up the organic nutrition line to match her peak-flowering hunger, pushing the main sugars, bio-stimulators, and energy enzymes to maximum levels. ⚡ ​Current Feeding Schedule (per Liter): ​Bio-Bloom: 3.0 ml/l ​Bio-Heaven: 4.0 ml/l ​Acti-Vera: 4.0 ml/l ​Bio-Grow: 1.0 ml/l ​Top-Max: 1.0 ml/l ​Calmag: 1.0 ml/l ​Parameters: ​pH: 6.5 ​Relative Humidity (RH): 59.0% 💧 ​Temperature: 30.0 °C 🌡️ ​VPD: ~1.73 kPa ​CO2: 675 ppm 💨 ​💭 GROWER'S NOTE ​👀 Status Report: Things are heating up in the tent! With temperatures hitting 30°C and a matching 59% RH, the VPD has pushed up to around 1.73 kPa. This high-performance climate means the Big Bang is transpiring at full speed. By upgrading the diet to 3 ml/l Bio-Bloom and boosting both Bio-Heaven and Acti-Vera to 4 ml/l, I'm giving her the massive energy reserves she needs to process nutrients at this high transpiration rate. Luckily, this solid Divine Seeds phenotype handles the summer-like conditions like an absolute tank. The buds are noticeably packing on frost and thickness daily. Keeping the airflow high and pushing hard through peak bloom! 🚀🌱✨

Due to change in weather i moved the red critical Autoflower inside under a grow light and she responed very well. Hope the buds keep getting fatter and thicker. The smell is amazing and the colours on these buds are amazing

Posting this week so late. I dont know why i never ended this diary, but yeah... here it is :) BSF Gorilla Glue comes with tovely buds, gave a great yield for a beginner, and a very pleasant smoke at the end.

Beautiful buds super sticky✂️ Delicious smell something new to me! Cant Wait the curing to taste this beauty

Day 49 Since the last update, the plant has only shown very slow signs of recovery. There’s a bit of fresh growth appearing in the center, but overall it remains weak and far behind expectations. The leaves are still drooping, though not quite as badly as a week ago. The pale green color persists, with some areas still edging toward yellow. This shows the roots are still struggling and nutrient uptake is limited. The heavy topping has given the plant a wide, flat structure with many bud sites, but at the moment it can’t take advantage of that shape. The potential is there, but growth is stalled by the stress it’s under. Watering has been kept very cautious — smaller amounts with longer breaks to avoid waterlogging. The medium was allowed to dry out thoroughly before watering again this time. Even so, the plant seems to be putting most of its energy into recovery rather than active growth. Compared to the other plants, this one looks “stuck.” Because of that, my expectations have shifted — I now see it more as a learning project. The new strains I started alongside are doing much better and give me confidence for this run overall. For now, the focus is still the same: no extra stress, no experiments — just steady care, patience, and time

Hey 👻 After many months without updates, here's a little one. These are the originals mother plants, i took 100's of clones out of em and then flipped to bloom 2 months ago. Here's a few pics of different bloom stages 👆 I began flush today after aprox. 60 days of bloom, i'm looking fwd to cut in 7-10 days, depending on trichomes 👍 I'm not expecting a big harvest but at least a quality one ! I kept a few phenos of Peach Tree, Pink Gasoline and L.A. Kush Cake 🙌 I'll post a final update when i'll harvest 😉

This is a super strain no hesitation go get this one you won't regret

October 9, 2021: Everything is moving right along. Flowering in full effect! Still showing signs of overwatering, but getting better. I haven't watered them at all this week. They are almost dried out enough to start watering again. I'm learning these 'self watering' pots I purchased basically suck and should be treated the same as any other 3 gallon pot. Lesson learned. I still like the concept of Sub Irrigation Planter (SIP) pots. I'll be building some SIP pots of my own with 5 gallon buckets in the future. Blackberry is 14" tall and has nice purple colors coming in. I did some additional defoliation on her this week and really like the way she is looking now (minus the overwatering) Critical+ is 22" tall and has good bud development. Her leaves are more yellowed, but that hasn't seemed to affect her bud development. I'm guessing we have 4-5 weeks to go until harvest time. I have planted 4 new photo period seeds (new journal up - check it out). I'll be flipping this tent to 12-12 as soon as these two girls have harvested. Until next week... Happy Growing!!! ✊

so were almost at harvest, have begun flushing this last week and hopefully will be chopping beginning of next week, then the cure... CAN NOT WAIT TO BUST UP SOME OF THESE NUGS AND PACK THEM IN THE BON 😆

Flowering Week 8

Down to the final week or two. Can't wait to flush and harvest

So it's time to harvest Russian machine guns. The plants were high because we pulled them with a lamp and did not use LST. The final product was removed on the shelf of the refrigerator.00

#1 42cm #2 47

Pics taken right before chop, currently hanging for the next 8-12 days and then a cure for a good few weeks. Pictures speak for themselves, I had high temps, supercropped the help out of them and yet are still the nicest looking bud I have ever grown since I started in 2003. Can’t wait to test how they smoke. I have two phenos but off to buy some more to do a more in depth pheno hunt.
