May, 8th I tried to do different Trainings on the Cookie-Plants the one on the Pictures is growing quite Wild with alot of laterals but atm i let her do the Thing The others have a more strict Growingregime✊ All Girls sit in amended Soilmix, ( EASY BOOST ORGANIC NUTRITION) so only Water and Beneficals for them waiting little before I start Floweringnutes

Well she over doubled her height this week! Look how much she's bushed out too! Possibly flowering has just started? Not sure how much she will stretch.

I just noticed today I’m having some top leaves yellowing between the veins. My ph is on point so I don’t think it’s a deficiency. I haven’t changed anything except the Carboload. So I think I’m going to dump my tank and flush. I really cannot imagine its the Carboload either. So I’m a bit perplexed. I decided after digging into The scrog and finding some lower yellow leaves it was a nitrogen deficiency. Upped the A&B

7/26 Rained last night and looks like it will rain today as well. The periods we've been having with rain then sun then rain has really exploded growth. I have tops over my fence already. You can see all the dead leaves I pulled. Plants look healthy but I always worry when I lose leaves like this. Luckily I can look back on my old diary and the paper one before for some peace of mind. I've decided to label this week as flower even though we still have about 14 and a half hours of daylight but we're losing light every week. My plants get shade in the evening. My tarps provide a little shade as well. Everything is stretching incredibly that's why I labeled flower. You can see preflowers starting to form. I hope that's why I lost so many leaves (starting preflower). I mean the plants are healthy. I'll check pH with a soil meter tonight and make sure things are good. I would think with the rain it would lower my pH if anything. Definitely using dry amendments next year and dropping the liquid nutes. Soon I'll start adding flower nutes at low doses and see how the girls respond. Still haven't been able to spray BT for the pillars and my IPM. Hopefully tonight it won't rain and I can spray. 7/27 watered today. Still seeing some leaves yellowing and dropping. I left my pH meter so I'll have to check to see if that's the problem. I've been researching and I may need to adjust my nutrient dosage and add more P. I still haven't sprayed. I found a shit ton of earwigs under the wood outside I use to hold down my tarp. I thought they were predators but maybe not. I'll have to research them. I may have to use captain Jack's instead of BT and hope it combats the earwigs. 7/28 Watered as the soil was dry. Killed some earwigs and tied up a branch that is to close to the fence. I researched earwigs and they aren't beneficial but I've noticed that I no longer have ANY aphids that I could see. I'll check lower leaves with my scope as I haven't checked in a while. My pH meter won't work in ANY of my grow bags. It seems like the bags are just a bunch of roots. When I stuck the meter in a pile of last year's soil (next to the grow) it worked fine and read at 6.6. I don't get why it won't work with the grow bags. I'll have to research and see if I can use test strips or something. Still noticing some random damage here and there but it's time to spray and I just haven't done it. Plants are in that transition stage. All the big clones are at about the same stage. I really hope losing the leaves is normal. Looking at my father's tomato plants I noticed the same thing. I looked at other foliage and trees and I'm seeing similar signs of senscence. 7/29 Fed two gallons to the garden this morning. I was able to get one reading off my pH meter and it read 7.3. Still losing leaves but plants are stretching like crazy. Even the little 5 gallon ones I have been neglecting are forming there "asparagus tops" and starting to transition energy. I think I'll start adding bloom nutes next feed or so. I need to treat the PM. I've been slacking on my IPM. Also noticed some weird looking damage on a bud site. I hope it's not those earwigs. I usually have aphids but this year it seems the lady bugs and my treatments kept them at bay. I'm wondering if the ear wigs that I saw were eating other bugs and ran out and started munching on leaves. Hope not. I plan to make a ear wig trap and I need to research more. Planning on spraying LCPT tonight and cleaning up the cage but we'll see how that goes. Very little wind so I took the tarps down for now. I'll update as I get things done. UPDATE: I inspected tops and bud sites for damage. Random damage mostly on seedlings outside the cage. It's hot today and the mis-labeled indica (it's ONE of the strains listed other than DJSBB AND DREAMCATCHER) in the 50 gallon pot seemed a bit droopy. Granted all those strains are highly indica dominant and it could just be the pheno. I gave them a little water just to make sure. It should hold them over till the rain. I took a small plastic container and made an earwig trap with soy sauce and olive oil. Let's see what I catch. I plan to spray LCPT tonight. 7/30 Rained all night so I couldn't spray like I wanted too. Rain and 49 degrees at 8. My earwig trap caught zero earwigs but I killed a few around it. Noticed damage on a bud site that I'm pretty sure was from ear wigs. My bags are on the ground and I allowed the roots to grow through into the ground so I am hesitant to use something like borax to kill them. I'll have to give this a little more thought. Tarps are still down I'll monitor and update. I was able to get two pH readings but they were the five gallon plants 7.2 and 7.3. I'd really like to lower the pH. My water going in is always good and I even measured the pH of the rain so I hope I'm good. May need to check run off for accuracy. 7/31 Didn't water as it poured last night. Wind is high so tarps went back up. Got a read of 7.3 on basically all plants. I don't get it. I'll have to lower what I'm putting in. I also need to figure out the earwig situation and get off my ass and MAKE time to prune the insides and treat the PM. I did this shit last year when I had COVID so I can do it with a stomach flu. UPDATE: I finally got around to applying the lost coast plant therapy. Two hours later and I'm pretty sure I applied it properly. I took some immediate pictures. I also watered a little before treatment. Found and killed two japanese beetles (which I think are the culprits behind the unknown damage). Fucker was on the top of a starting cola way taller than me. I never would've seen him if I didn't treat. I'm going to need to use a ladder and inspect tops a little more closely. On another not WE ARE IN FLOWER!! No question about it. The "spears" are starting to thicken and beginning to start flowers. It was so much more apparent this afternoon. Probably because I was pruning the interior and defoliating as well as getting close to spray. I'm beyond psyched and im going to start reduced dosages of tiger bloom. I'm also going to try to pH my water lower and see if that doesn't make a difference. 8/1 Soil was wet so I didn't water. LCPT did great at eating up that PM. The plant in the tub in the back seems like it may have a virus or something. It just seems weak. It reveged as well. I'll keep an eye on it. If it continues with a weak appearance i'll get a second opinion and if it truly is a virus i'll trash it. I'm not going to risk the rest of my plants. I'm experimenting with the plant. I have the branches tired down at 90 degree angles. I'm thinking about adding a dry amendment and top dressing. I have work to do next week. Weather has been awesome. Sunny. It was 49 this morning though. 75 at noon.

One with a topping the other one just LST both huge yield!🦖 For the smell its cookie dough,lemon & diesel🍪🍋⛽️ Super sticky buds 🤩

Primer día en la superficie y ya asoman las primeras pequeñas hojas buscando luz, siempre prefiero dárselas de forma paulatina y gradual para que no sea tan brusco. Buenos humos! 👽

🌿 Journal de Culture : Cherry Cola (Auto) ​Date : 06/04/2026 Âge : 74 jours Phase : Séchage (Plante #1) / Maturation finale (Plante #2) ​? Plante #1 (La Grande) : Le moment de vérité ​Chronologie : Mise dans le noir total le 4 avril pour stresser la plante et booster la résine, puis coupée et mise en séchage le 5 avril. ​Résultats à l'humide : 150 grammes (nettoyée). J'estime finir à environ 40 grammes sec. ​Mon avis honnête : Je ne vais pas mentir, je suis encore déçu par la Cherry Cola niveau production. C'est la deuxième fois que je la tente et le constat est le même : elle fait énormément de sites de têtes, mais elles ne prennent pas de masse, elles ne "gonflent" pas. ​Qualité vs Quantité : Le ratio temps passé / rendement n'est pas au rendez-vous. Par contre, la résine est là en abondance. C'est du givre pur, elle va sûrement mettre une sacrée claque. ​Arôme : Super agréable. Ce n'est pas une odeur agressive, c'est juste ce qu'il faut de sucré avec des notes de baies. C'est vraiment réussi sur ce point. ​Note provisoire : 7/10. J'attends le test de goût la semaine prochaine pour trancher définitivement. ​📏 Plante #2 (La Petite) : La relève ​Taille : 35 cm. ​Paramètres : Inchangés (24,5°C jour / 21°C nuit, 50% humidité, LED à 100%). ​Arrosage : 0,75 L d'eau aujourd'hui, juste pour rafraîchir la terre en surface et maintenir une légère humidité. ​Observations : Elle est magnifique visuellement. Les têtes ont l'air un peu plus gonflées que sur la première, et niveau résine, c'est encore un cran au-dessus de la n°1 (ce qui paraissait pourtant difficile !). Je reste réaliste : même si elle est superbe, elle ne fera pas de miracles sur le poids final. ​🔍 Analyse de l'Éleveur ​Structure des têtes : Sur les gros plans, on voit bien que les fleurs sont composées de calices très "aérés". C'est ce qui explique le manque de poids : il n'y a pas ce cœur dense qu'on trouve sur d'autres variétés. C'est une structure très "Sativa" dans l'âme malgré le côté compact de la plante. ​L'abondance de trichomes : Les photos montrent une plante qui semble avoir été saupoudrée de sucre glace. C'est exceptionnel pour des extractions, mais frustrant pour ceux qui cherchent de grosses "collas" bien lourdes. ​La sénescence finale : On voit bien sur les photos de la n°1 avant la coupe que les feuilles étaient arrivées au bout de leur vie (jaunissement propre). Le rinçage a été parfaitement exécuté. ​La n°2 et sa résine : Le fait qu'elle soit encore plus résineuse que la n°1 est bon signe pour la puissance. Elle profite bien de ses jours sous la Pure LED à 100%. 08/04 apport de 1 litres d'eau avec 0,4 ml pk 5-8 biotabs PH 6,3

Alga Bloom was add. Nothing to do this week, no problems with plant. Plant stretching PH 6.2 - 6.6

Is a potent strain & has a spicy aftertaste but sweet & candy gas terp on the low. Can definitely tell leaning on the Runtz side & yield was okay but not like Permanent Pounder yield since I harvest both on 420. Runtz Head a tasty strain while Permanent Pounder gassy funk & sour.. will update pounder .. I think I shall do better in future. Going to go with a 4 gallons fabric pot & see what happening without the net trellis

Day 53 of flower , made the decision to harvest today . Main cola was full of amber , further down less and less amber .so I feel I have a good mix . Even the popcorn buds have filled out . Very little trimming to do . I will hang the whole plant upside down in the dark grow tent . Really looking forward to this tasty number . Will update in a few weeks post dry and trim .

Second week of flowering completed, they are all very beautiful and healthy. I apologize for the poor quality of the photos, I've been very busy lately so I haven't been able to give them much attention. Luckily I automated the watering process, otherwise it would be very difficult days. But completing the initial 21 days, I will do a good defoliation and take photos of them separately. Peace be with you all! ✌️🙏

04/01 (M) As stated in previous update from last week (SEE week 25 update 04/01 (M) ) - Since has been fed accordingly and rebounding accordingly. 04/01 (C) Same as above for the babies (SEE week 25 update 04/01 (M) ) - They are rebounding accordingly as well - Never get to comfortable and execution are key - 04/08 - (M) - The Mom has bounced back nicely - The nutrient feed had to be increased to supplement for when the feeder malfunctioned - Her dead leaves will be pruned this week to prep for budding. 04/08 - (C) - The babies bounced back nicely as well from the EC/PPM/PH burn - Most of their has come back and numbers are optimal thus far. 04/11 - (M) - She bounced back tremendously - Ran her through a part defoliation (Round 1) - She has begun budding - She looks a little underweight but that is from clone stripping. 04/11 - (C) - The babies bounded back as well from the PPM/EC burn - Lost a healthy amount of the green during burn but it has since began coming back.

Started LST using heavy duty wire. After a couple days, decided to remove them as plant was being pushed down too hard. Thankfully, she bounced back very fast. Will start LST again, but this time using twine. Overall, she’s a little behind schedule, but looks decent otherwise.

These girls are now entering full bloom and are just beasting! The size of the buds now will tell how big and dense they will be at the end. From here on in they will power thorough to finish.

Huge yield of sticky buds, took 12 weeks from seed and filled a full 1.2m tent. Needed quite a bit of maintenance so happy to reach harvest day. Ran simple nutrients, slight foxtailing at the end, but most buds in the net are around 100g each plus ( and the net is full! and still a whole plant hanging with fat buds👍
