🇩🇪 GrowDiaries – Wochenkommentar Diese Woche hat sich meine Cherry Limeade großartig entwickelt 🌱. Es fühlt sich tatsächlich so an, als wäre plötzlich ein Schalter umgelegt worden. Das Wachstum ist jetzt kräftig und gleichmäßig, die Pflanze wirkt rundum gesund und zeigt weder Mangelerscheinungen noch die zuvor vorhandene Taco-Bildung der Blätter 💚. Am Sonntag habe ich sie getoppt ✂️ und ihr anschließend bis Donnerstag komplett ihre Ruhe gelassen, damit sie sich erholen kann. Seitdem läuft das Low Stress Training. Mit Drahtankern ziehe ich die Triebe vorsichtig nach außen, um eine möglichst breite und gleichmäßige Pflanzenstruktur aufzubauen 🌿. Die Positionen der Drahtanker passe ich täglich an, damit alle Triebe optimal Licht erhalten ☀️. Endlich habe ich auch die perfekte Einstellung für die vier Maxi-Blumat-Tropfer gefunden 💧. Das System hält die Saugspannung nun konstant zwischen 90 und 100 mbar, genau dort, wo ich sie haben möchte. Das gibt mir ein richtig gutes Gefühl – besonders, weil ich nächste Woche vier Tage beruflich unterwegs bin. Ohne ein zuverlässig eingestelltes Blumat-System hätte ich jetzt ein echtes Problem. So kann ich ganz entspannt verreisen 😌. Auch das Cover Crop wird langsam weniger 🌾. Ich schneide es mittlerweile fast täglich zurück, damit vor der Einleitung der Blüte nur noch wenig davon übrig ist. Langsam aber sicher gewinne ich diesen Kampf 💪. Das Gleiche gilt für die Trauermücken ?. Gestern habe ich 6.000 Hypoaspis miles ins Beet ausgebracht und abends, kurz vor dem Ausschalten der Beleuchtung, zusätzlich 3 Millionen SF-Nematoden gegossen. In einer Woche folgt eine zweite Behandlung mit weiteren 3 Millionen SF-Nematoden. Hoffentlich ist das dann das endgültige Aus für die Trauermücken 🎯. Ansonsten werde ich die Pflanze jetzt einfach weiter trainieren und in Ruhe wachsen lassen 🌱. Auf Komposttee oder Fermente verzichte ich bewusst, denn im Living Soil sollten mehr als genügend Nährstoffe vorhanden sein 🌍. Im Moment bin ich mit der gesamten Entwicklung mehr als zufrieden und freue mich riesig auf die kommenden Wochen 🚀. 📊 Aktuelle Parameter: 💡 Licht: 400 PPFD (18/6, Stufe 3, 40 cm Abstand) 🌡️ Temperatur: 27 °C 💧 Luftfeuchtigkeit: 72 % 📈 VPD: 1,0 kPa 🌿 CO₂: Ø 670 ppm 💦 Bodenfeuchtigkeit: 90 mbar 🇬🇧 GrowDiaries – Weekly Update This week my Cherry Limeade has developed amazingly well 🌱. It honestly feels like someone flipped a switch. The growth is now strong and steady, the plant looks very healthy, and there are no signs of nutrient deficiencies or the taco-shaped leaves I had before 💚. I topped her on Sunday ✂️ and then left her completely alone until Thursday to allow her to recover. Since then, I have started low stress training. Using wire anchors, I gently pull the branches outward to create a wider and more even plant structure 🌿. I adjust the position of the wire anchors every day to make sure all shoots receive optimal light exposure ☀️. I finally found the perfect setting for my four Maxi Blumat drippers 💧. The system now keeps the soil suction tension consistently between 90 and 100 mbar, exactly where I want it. This gives me a lot of confidence – especially because I will be away on a four-day business trip next week. Without a properly dialed-in Blumat system, this would have been a real problem. Now I can leave home completely relaxed 😌. The cover crop is slowly disappearing as well 🌾. I am cutting it back almost every day so that most of it will be gone before I start flowering. Little by little, I am winning this battle 💪. The same goes for the fungus gnats ?. Yesterday I released 6,000 Hypoaspis miles into the bed and, in the evening just before lights out, I watered in 3 million SF nematodes. In one week, I will repeat the treatment with another 3 million SF nematodes. Hopefully, this will finally bring the fungus gnats under control 🎯. Apart from training, I will leave the plant alone and let her grow naturally 🌱. I will not use any compost tea or ferments for now, because the Living Soil should already contain more than enough nutrients 🌍. At the moment, I am extremely happy with the development and I am really looking forward to the next few weeks 🚀. 📊 Current Parameters: 💡 Light: 400 PPFD (18/6, Level 3, 40 cm distance) 🌡️ Temperature: 27 °C 💧 Humidity: 72 % 📈 VPD: 1.0 kPa 🌿 CO₂: Avg. 670 ppm 💦 Soil moisture: 90 mbar

My beautiful C4 Auto from fastbuds, I decided to place her outside for her life and not to impress, should of just done both as indoor plants. The hash elements mutated her and continue to mutate. But overall she is budding pinkish purple colors throughout. Still hitting up with fem spray because I wouldn't be able to place an order with Fastbuds again so I try my best to keep this strain from them as my primary strain and get new strains from it .. Thanks Fastbuds.....

14.1.25: I've been readjusting the LST. I just took all the pegs out and reshaped her. I got some new LST equipment in the mail today, have been glad to have more pegs. I got some clips too, but they don't seem to stay on 😕 I'm currently only using the pegs, I have some thicker soft wire, but I forgot I don't have pliers to cut it! Also I'm running very low on Biobizz nutrients, so that could be bad 🤞 18.1.25: I have done another large defoliation on PPP1 and PPP2. Also, moderate defoliation on all other plants today. All LST ties and pegs are readjusted. I have turned up the light to 90%. Same distance of between 24-28 inches, depending on height of specific plant. I have increased the dosage of Biobizz Bio-Grow and Fish Mix to give an extra boost of Nitrogen as several plants were showing yellowing. They have responded very well to this. Unfortunately I ran out of my Biobizz nutrients and PH UP. I'm currently using Bicarbonate of Soda to increase the PH after the nutes PH comes out to about 4.1. Obviously, that uses a lot and I only had a 250ml bottle, which I used last run too. This run I have 9 plants. The only thing I'm worried about is the salt build up. Have you used it before? Or any other natural way to increase PH? Please let me know! I've also added Biobizz Fish Mix to help with the extra Nitrogen needed. Watering with 1ltr of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.3 with the following nutrients;- ♡ 4ml Biobizz Fish Mix ♡ 4ml Biobizz Bio-Grow ♡ 2ml Biobizz Bloom ♡ 2ml Biobizz Top Max ♡ 2ml Cal-Mag ♡ 2ml Ecothrive Flourish. I water with this every 3 days. I did order some more Biobizz Bio-Grow and Bio Bloom. I found some at a reasonable price on Amazon. I still have about 800 ml of Biobizz Fish Mix left, too. It is fairly expensive this time as the plants are hungrier this run. I also got a new bag of Canna coco, which I may use to add a top dress with some dry amendments. Which hopefully will save some cash on the bottled nutrients and stretch out until the end of this run without having to buy anymore. I have purchased a funnel to pour the water. It is difficult, due to the shape of my LST, to water precisely. I have spilt it all over the tent several times 🙄 I've also ordered a 2 litre jug. Currently, I'm mixing water for 9 plants individually in a 1 litre jug. It's tideous. Hopefully, this will solve the issues. Cleaning the tent after watering every time isn't my idea of efficiency 😅 Thanks for checking out my diary 🍃 ✌️

Well, I've confirmed through sources that we officially entered the flowering stage as of last week. Time for some adjustments. Just prior to confirming flowering, I did one last trim, removing the larger fan leaves at the top to allow more light to the bottom. Good thing I did this now, as any later I've been told will shock them too much. With confirmed flowering, I switched over from both blue and red lights to just red. I also lowered the lights closer to about 9 inches after being assured that they won't burn the leaves any. With the transition, I gave the plants one last watering with the N-P-P mixture.

I dropped these seeds into a bowl of water overnight. In this case about 8 hours. I then planted .75" deep into wet soil on 4/24/24. I prefer moist soil but we had a rain the previous evening. Outdoors you plan for the weather but you don't know with certainty what nature will throw at you. There's a lot of rain in the forecast. I'm gambling that there'll be less actual rain. I want to get these girls more veg time so there's the trade off. I didn't fill these short pots completely full of soil. The idea is that less soil will dry faster if we get loads of rain. Once we get a stand, I'll add soil topping these pots off. Prayers going up for good planting weather and hoping for a fine stand of Wedding Cheesecake 🌱🌞🚀🎂. We've had lots of rain on the night of the 25th and all day 26th. It was cloudy and humid all day on the 27th but we missed the rain. The 28th we have rain most of the day. Two of three popped on the 28th and the third on the 29th. I dug up a few inches of soil around these to loosen it up and let some air get in. Hopefully that will counter this rain and drizzle on their birthday 🎂🎈 These girls came out fine and are turning up to get some sun. Fastbuds really do handle stressful outdoor conditions better. That's why they're my go to for outdoor fems.

When I started the week of drying, I smelled the intense sheet cake and cherry from the flowers, it didn't surprise that he named it the je cheesecake.

Week 12 Day 78 (10/2) I'm really hoping that I will start to see some amber trichomes soon. Most diaries I have seen harvest after week 12, but some have gone even longer. I mean, I'm not in a rush but damn, I would love to get her finished and chopped soon. She'll probably need watered tonight, so I'll check trichomes again while I'm at it. Day 79 (10/3) I get the feeling that we are in the home stretch. I scoped the trichomes last night and I'm starting to see some sporadic amber. I watered her last night with some Mammoth P, but depending on how the ambers progress, she may not get fed again. Idk, we'll see. I'm really tempted to do some defoliating as there are MANY lower buds that are still sporting white pistils. I'm thinking that maybe they just aren't getting the light they need and are trailing behind in maturing? I've been moving branches around and tucking leaves like crazy, but I feel like I'm just going in circles with it because she is so bushy. A few days ago I moved the light down quite a bit, and when I got home last night a lot of the upper leaves had gotten pretty yellow. I figured it was light bleaching so I moved the light up some to about 13" above the tallest cola point. Day 80 (10/4) I finally bit the bullet and defoliated a little bit last night. I focused on just what was blocking the lower buds, especially deep in the middle. I was able to pull some of the outer branches out and maneuver some of the smaller ones that were buried out as well. There is a shocking amount of bud sites hidden all over. I have some trimmers, mini hygrometers, and Boveda packs on the way! Day 81 (10/5) Ugh, I'm really on the fence about how to continue, whether or not to give another feeding or stick with just water. I'm seeing very few amber trichomes, but her leaves are fading fast. She'll be needing water in the next day or two, and would be getting fed. Idk.... Day 82 (10/6) Just waiting.... Day 83 (10/7) Watered her last night. I put 2 Tablespoons of molasses in, some Mammoth P, and some Drip Clean to help get any residual salt out. She is quickly fading and her leaves are yellowing/browning. I scoped her trichomes last night and I think she'll be ready to partially harvest by this weekend! Day 84 (10/8) I'm thinking tomorrow....maybe

This week went ok, but I did break two of the four tops early in the week. They have both recovered but it slowed me down a few days. I got the final four toppings done today on day 49, so I will probably give them two or three weeks and see where they're at, and hopefully be about ready to flip to flower. Not much left to do from here, just a little LST on the 8 tops to spread them out, and then just sit back and watch them grow. Thanks for stopping by, be safe and Blaze On!
