Sticky Broccoli Auto – Harvest Update Strain: Sticky Broccoli Auto Breeder: Zamnesia Seeds Grower: Little Lilly Farms Overall Outcome This run didn’t hit the mark. The genetics felt unstable and inconsistent across all four plants—each one expressed very differently in structure, growth, and final bud development. Bud quality leaned airy and loose, lacking density, but was heavily coated in resin and trichomes. Visually appealing frost, but the overall structure didn’t back it up. Terpene profile was underwhelming—nothing loud or complex. Mostly a sweet gas aroma, but lacking depth and punch. ⸻ Harvest & Final Week Timeline 4/1 Fed one plant ½ gallon of previous nutrient mix. Very minimal runoff. 4/2 * 1 gallon of premade feed (from 3/31) used * Small runoff achieved * Other 2 plants received straight RO water (not pH’d) * No noticeable change in color or fade on water-only plants 4/3 ¼ gallon of premade feed mix applied 4/4 – Harvest Begins * Cut down 2 plants * Fit both into the Cannatrol for drying * Buds extremely resinous and sticky * Heavy trichome coverage across both plants * Switched remaining plants to straight RO water moving forward Final Feed Mix (per gallon): * 0.5 ml Silicium Bloom * 2 ml MagCal * 4 ml Green Sensation * 2 ml Cocos A * 8 ml Cocos B * 4 ml Pure Zym 4/6 * Purple coloration showing on sugar leaf edges * ¾ gallon RO water (not pH’d) * ~5% runoff 4/7 * ¾ gallon RO water * Minimal runoff 4/8 * 1 gallon RO water * ~15% runoff 4/9 * ¾ gallon RO water * ~20% runoff 4/10 * 1 gallon RO water * ~15% runoff ⸻ Drying & Cure All 4 plants have been harvested, dried, and are currently being trimmed. Final weight will be recorded once trimming is complete. ⸻ Final Thoughts * Pros: * Extremely resinous buds * Heavy trichome production * Good visual frost * Cons: * Airy, low-density buds * Weak terpene expression * Highly inconsistent phenotypes across all plants Overall, this run felt like a genetic gamble that didn’t fully pay off. While the resin production was impressive, the lack of density and terp complexity made this one fall short of expectations.

Hi guys, At the end of the story, I am very happy with the whole cycle and finally the outcome, I almost killed everything in there 😂 The Acid Dough is a great sativa strain, with a short flowering period. I did have problems throughout the cycle overfertilizing the plant. I toppped them, and then use LST training to help her growing wider, Probably if I wouldnt have messed up with the ferilizer I would have a much better final product, not even talking about quantity, but quality. The whole plants were dried for 18 days after which they were finished in jars for another 6 weeks, if I dont fell... I would like to thank Grow Diaries for this amazingly-organized community they have created, where we all can learn a lot, and share something we really love. Thanks to everyone who stopped by and looked at the diary, squeezed the like button or comment the diary. 13/12 I'VE MADE MY FIRST RUN OF BUBBLE HASH! Very very happy with the end result, did not weight anything yet because is still wet big time, I lightly squeezed it a bit, before let it drying on parchment on a cardboard. The smell it's just absolutely crazy. I can smell strong citrus notes in the 120µm but the 90µm and 73µm explodes with crazy-sweet note. While the 25µm (did not use the 43µm) where I did collect most of the hash, smell like good and sweet hash, nothing crazy like the previous ones but a very buttery like consistency that makes me want to eat it like this...dont ask me why...even though I know you all probably felt this way too... Anyway, the paper sheet says it all about timing, washes and µm used for the extractions, but just in case I'll explain it down here. I have done 3 wash with different timing. 1º wash: 5 min only to get the most brittle trichome heads 2º wash: 10 min stardard 3º wash: 30 min to stock up a bit 😅 I could have done an extra wash for sure and get more out, but I was running out of time so...I will update with the dry weight, it was not the only wash I've done, that were just too many grades to weight up..so I chose to do it once all dry! See you really soon with on the nex run pals!

Irrigation: once every three days with the highest dose of fertilizer. 1.5 L ph6.5 ppm 1000 light: 40 cm Rh 60 22 c plants 47 cm to- 67 cm tallest Hello everyone. Finally a little happiness on the last day of the week. This week the plants have healthier, greener leaves. And the buds are growing. I say what I did that helped my plant. I reduced the strong wind, I increased the humidity, I increased the distance between the light and the plant by 10 cm. And I started fertilizing a lot. I thought the leaves would burn because they had a lot of fertilizer, but on the contrary, they needed fertilizer.

Weekly update on these wonderful girls. They've progressed beautifully, especially considering the day time temps have been in the mid 90's. Not seeing any signs of deficiencies and spraying once a week of either Athena's IPM and stack or PureCrop1 for pest management. So far since being transplanted they've only been fed well water. I'll probably start some Grow A & B nutes and calmag this week. All in all Happy Growing.

This is the final week! My wife will be having a baby on 3/11/19, so I need to harvest on 3/10 no matter what. The trichomes are looking good. Mostly cloudy with a few amber and a few remaining clear. I could probably push this another 5 days or so, but since this is already a pretty heavy indica, I think this it great time to harvest, particularly given the circumstances. Really happy with the level of frostiness on these buds...they look super dank!. Can't wait to harvest and cure these babies :)

The growth was delayed 5 days, I think it was due to the lack of ca-mg, but they are already 100% recovered to give some good flowers, give them love 💚

Bewässerung: 500 ml jeden 3 Tag in der Vierten Woche pH-Wert: 5,9 EC-Wert: 1 mS/cm Temperatur: 26ºC Luftfeuchtigkeit: 55% Schädlingsbekämpfung: im Moment haben wir keine Anzeichen das es was zu bekämpfen gibt, sobald die ersten Anzeichen da sind werden wir handeln :) PPFD: 200 µmol/m²/s DLI: 15 mol/m²/Tag Düngemittel: Sie bekommt CalMag von BioBizz zu Prävention. Ab Tag 8 haben wir angefangen sie mit einem Mineralischen NPK Dünger (NPK 10-4-7) zu Gießen . Besonderheiten: Sie wird etwas länger im Vorzuchtzelt bleiben da wir das Hauptzelt umbauen und es erst in 2 Wochen wieder bereit haben. -Tag 23 sie hat das Topping sehr gut verkraftet und wurde heute etwas entlaubt. Sie hat auch Dünger bekommen. -Tag 27 Baustelle fertig und Zelt wieder aufgebaut, nun haben wir die Pablo Escobar ins Große Zelt gebracht. sie wird dann in den nächsten Tagen umgetopft. Wir wissen das man Automatics nicht umtopfen soll aber haben es schon ein paar mal gemacht und es gab nie Probleme. Sie hat sie Weiter gut entwickelt und hat heute wieder Dünger bekommen.

Second week of flower, time to stretch! Im very happy with the outcome so far, it is without worry that some tops are in shadow. Enough tops to go around, have to wait until after stretch to lollipop! The lady all the way in the back, to the left, has either stunned growth or just slower than the other to go into stretch. However i will just play the waiting game, as i see no symptoms for a problem atm. Last watering was 15/10 👽👉17/10 VPD is set to 1.2, but because of the function of my dehumidifier, it range from 1.1-1.3. 👽👉18/10 Waterday* They are real thirsty First signs of pistils have shown! I upped my nutes from EC1.36 to EC1.66 BioHeaven 2ML/L BioGrow 1ml/L > 1.5 BioBloom 0.5ml/L >1.5 TopMax 0.5ml/L> 1 Calmag 0.3ml/L > 0.4 👽👉19/10 The ladies love it! Stretching and praying hands! 👽👉20/10 Impressed with the stretching. Not much to report, they just feeling the vibe. 👽👉21/10 Changed the lamp hanging system, to gain some more distance from light to canopy. 👽👉22/10 Thirsty ladies, but since i did not have time to water, i gave them 200ml each to survive another 24hours without feed. 👽👉23/10 Waterday* I upped my nutes from EC1.66 to EC1.77 added 1ML/L Rootjuice to this feed Bioheaven 2ML/L BioGrow 1.5 ML/L > 2 BioBloom 1.5ML/L TopMax 1ML/L Calmag 0.4ML/L Rootjuice 1ML/L

Hello growmies. We are reaching the end of the journey! I enjoyed the experience so much that I will repeat it. I'll take a look at the trichomes to decide when to cut it. 4 Setembro - flush a todas as plantas com água muito fria (3L a cada).

I think about the fact that it is no longer necessary to cut leaves. I cut it a lot, but I notice that many people cut a bunch of leaves at one time, although somewhere I read no more than 10% at a time. When I gave fertilizers, I always diluted them with water even more to reduce ppm Day 68: I added cal-mag to the diet because the leaves are really turning yellow from the bottom. 0.5 ml Day 70: I added 1 ml cal-mag
