Hello Growmies, As we conclude week 8 with our Epic Buzz trio, the grow space is a vibrant testament to the diligent care and attention we've poured into our cultivation practices. Each plant, with its individual shape and form, reflects the precise techniques that have been employed. The internodal spacing is particularly impressive, indicative of a successful vegetative period and setting the stage for a robust flowering phase. Nutrition and lighting remain meticulously managed, with PPFD values sustaining an optimal range to support the plants' increased energy needs. Alga Bloom, part of our carefully balanced nutrient mix, continues to fortify the plants as they begin to focus their efforts on bud development. We've also stayed vigilant on pest control; the appearance of "a" fly led to an immediate and effective trapping response, confirming our proactive measures are keeping potential issues at bay. The environmental data from the past week shows some manual adjustments to the fan speeds—a reminder of the hands-on nature of grow room management. The weekly VPD chart reflects these tweaks, though they're quickly rectified, maintaining a conducive atmosphere for plant growth. The 24-hour chart echoes this stability, with only minor deviations, demonstrating our commitment to providing a consistent environment. The uniformity of growth among the Epic Buzz variants is striking, as observed in the latest images. Their lush foliage and the efficient use of space under the SCROG net indicate a well-executed strategy, enhancing our optimism for the flowering stage. As we forge ahead, we await with bated breath the flowering phase's full display. The consistent growth patterns, along with the strategic interventions such as fly trapping, ensure that our Epic Buzz plants are primed for a productive season. The unity and health of the canopy are not merely a sign of what's to come but a testament to our dedication to this cultivation journey. Stay lifted, Salokin

It was a long grow, or at least it seemed like it, everything was looking so good so I was ready to harvest at week 9 but these bugs took a long time to mature.

hey all, let's do an experiment with budswelling and without ! i know it will not be exact science but i will give some insight if it works or not. i have got 2 C.banana and 2Royal Gorilla on 1 plant of each sort i have done my budswelling so we can compare both strains and the effect at the end of harvest to see if it makes a difference or not. in my believe it makes a difference but i can not prove it maybe this will give an idea if it makes a difference or not. also i have put an video on how i do the budswelling with scissors or with fingers. i prefer to do it with fingers it's a lot quicker then with scissors. You need to do this on al the buds not only on top. Some say you need to do this every week but i only do it after 3or 4 weeks into flowering.

This thing has a great smell to it I can’t explain the smell best I can say is candy but like it’s a candy in a wrapper smell if you get me already sticky

Hola Mista Marlboro 🦉 Tobaccos start to bloom this week so it's time to cut them out. Or snap. Left flowers for biggest plant so we see also how it produces seeds. Same destiny for sucker leaf's. Watering oldest last time with nutrients. Test crop is done. Just oldest and lowest leaf's from shadow that won't produce anything anyways. Hanging on my wood shed now. Excited 😆 With smokey Hopes 🚬

Sorry for the lack of updates guys but we all can agree that the Veg stage is the boring part 😅 But the ladies are doing & looking great, I am going to be flipping them to flower tonight. 👍🏾

4/15/25 Things are progressing nicely. Some plants dont seem to be doing too much but 3 of them or so that are really standing out. Im curious if some of these are going to be longer flowering time than anticipated with the very obvious sativa dominant plants.

Esta semana recién empieza a ver signos de flora, hice poda de bajos y defoliación

WEEK 13 - FLOWERING: Late Flowering Phase ​🌼 FLOWERING PROGRESS The Monster Maker has officially entered Week 9 of flower. The plant is in the middle of a perfect final "fade," with leaves turning deep purple and yellow as she exhausts her internal nutrient stores. Resin production is at its absolute peak—the buds are rock hard and completely over-wintered with milky trichomes. We are seeing the first few amber heads appearing, signaling that harvest is just around the corner. ​👃 TERPENES & AROMA The aroma remains incredibly potent. The dominant scent is a sweet, ripe tangerine, which is layered over a heavy, earthy, and slightly spicy base. It’s a very complex profile that has only become more refined during this final week. ​🌡️ ENVIRONMENT & VPD Conditions are being kept stable for the finish. Current readings show 24.8°C and 46% humidity, which keeps the VPD at a solid 1.65 kPa. This environment ensures the resin stays fresh and the dense buds remain safe from any moisture issues during the final days. ​💧 NUTRIENT FEEDING & WATERING The flush is in full swing! I started using only plain, pH-regulated water on Thursday (2nd April). She is reacting perfectly to the water-only diet, pushing out the last of her resin while cleaning out all residual nutrients for a superior taste and clean burn. ​Current Feeding: Pure Water Only (Flush in progress since April 2nd) ~~ Citric acid (1.2 ml/l) ~~ ​💭 GROWER'S NOTE Week 13 (Flower Week 9). We are watching a masterpiece finish. The trichome coverage is insane, and the fruity-meets-earthy scent is a dream. I am monitoring the amber count daily now. We are looking for that perfect window to chop within the next 7-10 days. The excitement is real!

Special thanks to @DreamIT for showing me how to add music and animation to video. Check out my fountain video above for a short clip. Thanks to @UnorthadoxDude for influencing me ( by visual curiosity) maybe twisted an arm to buy some carnivors. Well I happened to find some at our annual master gardener plant sale. I will be putting some in the tent. Lots of growth in my carnivores. Flowers on Sundew.

I decided to cut to milky trichomes

Day 141 still going started to reveg but lowered light schedule

Update June 16th 3 liters fed with another week of fertilizer schedule skipped because why. the fuck. not! I know the can handle it. They’re battle rappers! Still found 4 new bugs on them yellow cards. Guess those are survived larvae from previous mating. But still no invasion. Update June 14th SFW - Second Flower Week. Fungus gnats seem to be defeated. First set of cards caught 5-7 bugs, second set is clean so far. Fingers double-u’d that’s the end of it. Samy handled the watering pause much better than Takti and had no drooping at all. Dynamite Diesel continues to be a much easier and more enjoyable strain to train. Not nearly as bushy, which makes handling and shaping a lot more straightforward.

So far so good. Will upgrade to bloomspect 1000w grow light

Day 38: I am getting the big 50L fabric pots primed and set with the eco-thrive Living Organic Soil . I am a few days over the update so the photo/video is from day 36. I am in the process of rebuilding too so time has been a luxury.

It's about week 6 I guess, I don't know. Pheno 1: 2 short ones with great smelling medium sized buds. Fast Pheno 2: looks like a nice producer, very frosty, nice growth, keeping an eye on this one. Slowest of the bunch but not a slow plant by any means Pheno 3: woah, THC bomb! The frostiest plant in the house. Also seems like a fast one Great smells Quite excited for these awesome plants from Zambeza! Catch you before harvest time for some nicer pictures
