On flower day 60, it was finally time. Three days before the final cut, I did a last light watering with plain water. The last 36 hours, the lights stayed on. In the end, I had around 20–30% amber trichomes. I'm super happy with the result. Trim jail was exhausting but totally worth it. The harvest is now right in the middle of curing. As for the smell: a sharp, earthy, leathery diesel mix with hints of lemon. The fuel note is, to my delight, much stronger than expected. Incredibly sticky buds. Sparkling flowers. Thanks so much for following along with the grow journal! Maybe it'll help someone with planning or give a general preview for a future grow of this strain. Much love and happy growing!

I'm taking a break from recording and posting daily timelapses. Going for surgery in a few days. Will have help but not to document.

I am a little bit worried about its flowers size so I've duplicated the green sensation dose from 1mL/L to 2mL/L due I haven't using any other fertilizer apart from the banana (+potato+honey) juice . These photos are intended to take a look at the state of their trichomes, since, according to the variety information, there is only one week left to be harvested (although I do not believe it). Lets see what happens.

Day 35 grow Its been 18 celcius last weeks so the growth got slowed a bit

Nothing special happening no over feed no over/under watering. Plants look like they enjoy the environment

***Note that I started to count the days when I placed the seeds between paper towels. The seeds were planted 3 days later and sprouted from the ground 2 days after being planted. D80 (13/05/2021): I'm looking at the trichomes every other days. Glue Gelato is starting to show amber on top buds. No amber for Banana Kush and Gelato. This time I will chop them all at the same time so the one I will rely on is the Glue Gelato. As soon as she is ready, I will harvest them all. Banana Kush and Gelato would probably need more, but in term of logistic, I need to harvest all my plants at the same time. D83 (16/05/2021): Not ready yet. I'm checking trichomes closely! 😬 - Light: the lights are at 100% and at 12 inch form the plants. - Temperature: during the day: 24-25C ; during the night: 20C. - Humidity: the humidity is maintain around 46-48% all the time. - Air circulation: There is an oscillating fan on the ground, one fixed fan pointing on top of the canopy and one fixed fan to help cool the lights. - Water: I gave water every other day or when the ground feel dry or the pots feels light. - ***IPM: I never mention it but I'm using nematodes pouch as an integrated pest management. I had trouble with pest in my first grow and I learned from it. That's the only thing I do for pest and of course watching closely and regularly at my plants 😊

4/14 day 21 As of day 22, she’s showing obvious flower pistils, will count her as flowering in the next week. Last week of veg, will switch to half and half of veg and flower nutes. I believe it’s 444 and 284 flower. 4/18

Hello Growmies, Exciting times in the garden as we wrap up the first week of flowering! Let me share the latest developments with our flourishing beauty. She's stretched impressively in this initial flowering phase. I've decided not to continue with the ScrOG method any further, as I'm eager to see the kind of colas she will naturally produce. It's always fascinating to observe how each plant uniquely expresses its growth. A light defoliation was done this week, and depending on her growth in the next few days, another round might be in order. Her sturdiness is quite remarkable, hinting at the potential for some hefty buds – a thought that certainly brings a smile to my face! She received one watering session this week, with 3 liters of nutrient solution. I'm keeping a close eye on her response to ensure optimal growth. Overall, I'm really pleased with how she's developing. There's something deeply rewarding about watching a plant thrive under your care. In other news, the two one-liter pots have found a new home at a friend's place. And here's a bit of joy for my fellow plant enthusiasts: use the code ZAMMIGD2023 at Zamnesia's online store for a 20% discount.

🌸 BlueBerry – Week 6 Flower Report Grower’s Journal | Zamnesia BlueBerry ⸻ 🌱 The Girls This Week Both BlueBerry ladies are now true queens, stretching big, stacking huge colas, and getting so heavy that yo-yos are holding them up. Without support, branches would fall under their own weight, which is a good sign of strong flower density but also a reminder of the importance of plant training. The frost continues to thicken, and the trichomes look spectacular up close, sparkling in photos and videos like tiny glass forests. ⸻ ⚠️ Trouble in Paradise – Bud Rot But with big flowers also come risks. This week, Bud Rot (Botrytis cinerea) showed up on BlueBerry #2. • Conditions: High humidity (65%+, sometimes higher) combined with dense flowers created the perfect environment for rot. • Detection: Early spotting saved the plant. We caught it in time before it spread too far, but it still left its mark. • Action Taken: • Carefully removed every infected area. • Isolated affected material to prevent spores spreading. • Improved airflow around the canopy by moving plants and adjusting fans. 👉 For anyone learning, here’s a great educational read by Zamnesia: Bud Rot Grower’s Guide. https://www.zamnesia.com/grow-weed/563-bud-rot-cannabis-grower-guide ⸻ 🌿 Bud Rot – What It Is & How to Prevent It Bud Rot is caused by the fungus Botrytis cinerea. It thrives in humid, poorly ventilated conditions, especially inside large dense colas where moisture can hide. How to prevent: • Keep humidity lower during flower (ideally 40–50%). • Maintain constant airflow across and through the canopy. • Defoliate strategically to open airflow inside dense plants. • Avoid watering late in the cycle to reduce night-time moisture. What to do if it appears: • Act quickly. Remove all affected buds immediately. • Sterilize scissors/tools between cuts to avoid spreading spores. • Keep monitoring daily — once it appears, it can spread fast. Bud Rot is every grower’s nightmare, but also one of the most important lessons in environmental balance. ⸻ 💡 Lessons Learned (and Moving Forward) This 8x8 setup is teaching us a lot. For the next run, I’ll be redesigning the airflow system entirely to prevent these issues. For now, the plants are still thriving, and catching the rot early means we can continue with this grow. Big flowers are a blessing, but they require serious air control. We’re already working on solutions, including an AC and new placement strategies, which I’ll cover in more detail on YouTube. ⸻ 📸 The Beauty Side Even with this challenge, the girls are stunning: • Massive colas held up by yo-yos. • Sparkling trichome close-ups showing the magic of Week 6. • Heavy branches bending under the weight of their own production. The resilience of BlueBerry genetics shows through, they continue to push strong, healthy growth despite the setback. ⸻ 🔮 Looking Ahead – Week 7 What to expect: • Further bulking and resin production. • Stronger terpene expression, the BlueBerry scent growing richer. • More vigilance against humidity and bud rot, especially as flowers keep swelling. What not to expect: • Major structural changes. From here, it’s all about ripening and finishing strong. ⸻ 💬 Final Thoughts Week 6 has been both a celebration and a reminder: heavy, beautiful flowers need perfect conditions to stay healthy. Bud rot may have appeared, but it was caught, managed, and turned into a learning moment for this run and for future ones. The BlueBerry ladies are still shining, still heavy, still legends in the making.

Fotos del día 53, poco que decir, las altas temperaturas siguen y al menos mantengo la humedad por debajo de 60% y muy buena ventilación, parece que el engorde sigue. Solo queda seguir manteniendo los parámetros lo más controlados posible y seguir engordando los cogollos.

Another easy week, weather has been beautiful! Lot’s of ☀️. They have been very thirsty as a result, I was able to get three waterings in this week. Just keep bringing them in and out of their pop up greenhouse daily. Started to taper down some of the feeds, two plain oh waterings and one feed this week. I don’t really “flush” but I do taper down to just ph water for the last few feeds. Happy growing folks! 🇨🇦❤️🌱😎💨

The Hobbit Hole Outdoor Grow 2026 – Woche 7 Die Woche begann mit den ersten kleinen Blütenbüscheln – und nur wenige Tage später legen die Damen bereits richtig los. Besonders spannend finde ich, wie unterschiedlich sich die einzelnen Phänotypen entwickeln. Während eine Pflanze mit langen Internodien in die Höhe schießt und eine klassische Weihnachtsbaumform bildet, wachsen die anderen deutlich kompakter und setzen ihre Blüten dichter an. Trotz der Unterschiede haben alle eines gemeinsam: Die Blüte ist jetzt endgültig angekommen. Überall schieben sich frische, weiße Blütenfäden aus den Kelchen und die Budsites verbinden sich langsam miteinander. Genau diese Phase liebe ich jedes Jahr am meisten, denn jetzt kann man den Pflanzen beim Wachsen fast zusehen. Auch das Harz lässt nicht lange auf sich warten. Schon jetzt sind die Sugar Leaves mit einer feinen Schicht Trichome überzogen. Für dieses frühe Blütestadium bin ich mehr als zufrieden und ich bin gespannt, wie frostig die Pflanzen in den kommenden Wochen noch werden. Diese Woche gab es außerdem wieder Futter nach Hesi-Düngeschema: 🌱 Blüh Complex 🌱 Boost 🌱 PowerZyme 🌱 SuperVit Mit Phosphor Plus werde ich noch etwa zwei Wochen warten, bis die Blüten richtig anfangen anzuschwellen. Ein weiterer Meilenstein war meine erste biologische Schädlingsvorsorge mit Raubmilben. An jede Pflanze hängt inzwischen ein Säckchen mit Amblyseius cucumeris, damit Thripse gar nicht erst eine Chance bekommen. Nach vielen Jahren Grow-Erfahrung weiß ich, wie schnell ein Schädlingsbefall eskalieren kann. Ich hatte früher einmal einen so massiven Spinnmilbenbefall, dass innerhalb von 24 Stunden komplette Buds eingesponnen waren. Genau deshalb setze ich inzwischen konsequent auf Vorbeugung statt auf Schadensbegrenzung. Bisher scheint der Plan aufzugehen. Trotz Outdoor-Grow mitten im “Hobbit Hole” sind die Pflanzen weiterhin frei von nennenswertem Schädlingsbefall. Bis auf ein paar Trauermücken, die ich mit der Erde eingeschleppt habe, sehen die Ladies gesund und sauber aus. Einige Grower haben mich bereits gefragt, wie das möglich ist – ich glaube, die Mischung aus Erfahrung, regelmäßigen Kontrollen, präventivem Neem in der Wachstumphase und jetzt den Raubmilben zahlt sich langsam aus. Die Fotos dieser Woche stammen übrigens komplett vom neuen iPhone. Vor allem die Makroaufnahmen der Blüten gefallen mir richtig gut. Man erkennt inzwischen jedes einzelne Harzköpfchen und die Entwicklung lässt sich deutlich besser dokumentieren als zuvor. Jetzt beginnt die Phase, in der die Blüten Woche für Woche sichtbar an Größe zulegen werden. Ich freue mich riesig darauf, euch auf diesem Weg mitzunehmen. 🌿🍄 Bis nächste Woche aus dem Hobbit Hole!

Strong plant with huge growth. Indoors, in hydroponics, it gave excellent results. Super then the smoke and the effects. Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
