Sundae Driver (Fruity Pebbles X Grape Pie) - This time did a mild prune, really loving the Kyle Kushman technique, definitely gonna save time on dry trimming.

Progress Update: The Blue Dream plant continues to show excellent development and has handled the increased nutrient levels exceptionally well. It seems less sensitive to feeding adjustments than expected, a positive trait for consistent growth. Watering Schedule: Skipped watering this week due to high humidity levels, which kept the soil moist since the last watering at the end of the previous week. Plant Morphology: Stem Growth: Strong and stable, indicating excellent structural integrity for supporting future buds. Internodes: Relatively short, leading to a compact structure—a trait uncommon for Blue Dream and suggestive of a strong Indica influence in this phenotype. Foliage: The leaves exhibit classic Indica characteristics, with broad, dark green blades. Observations: The plant’s Indica-dominant appearance is surprising given Blue Dream’s typical Sativa-dominant profile. This could lead to unique results in both growth patterns and flowering characteristics. Next Steps: Maintain consistent environmental conditions and monitor for signs of water requirements next week. Continue full nutrient feeding while observing for any changes in plant response. Consider early training techniques if needed to balance compact growth. This plant’s performance remains impressive, and its unexpected traits make it a fascinating grow to observe. 🌿 dein-onlineheadshop.de/ Use my referral code 420Shop at checkout to get a discount on your purchase.

Estuvo bastante bien, esto lo lleno con lo que recuerdo para que no borren este diario que es una suma de mis cultivos pasados. Saludos!

All at all really nice plant with beautydull colors at the end the smell during flower is unbeleavable Sweet im sure this is the right seed for a Pheno Hunt there are bangers hidden 100%

Did some defoliation very light just made sure nothing is blocking the lower nodes to much but other than that been feeding heavy then watering with just cal mag for two waterings then heavy. Next watering will be a 900 to 950 ppm mix.

Week 11/3 - 17/3

Stripped up the bottoms and and will flip to 12/12 tomorrow. Monster plant which has filled almost a 5x5 area and has been a real pain to keep healthy

This Week Just gave the Girls nothing but PH Balanced Water, gotta love fox farm soil

Overall this was good strain to grow and I would try it again on maybe an outdoor grow to see how big it gets. The bud structure could have been a little better and it wanted to bush out alot so maybe not the best for scrog. Seems like its a bit of a heavy feeder too and I may have went a little light on nutrients. It wasn't as dense as i thought is was going to be but that was most likely from my environment.

Wow. This girl is huge and beautiful. She is on track and just does her thing. Feeding at 1.8 to 1.9ec. more pk seems to be doing this lady the world of good. She is hungry and takes it with joy There's not much to say really. She's gonna yeild well I think. Only concern is space. I've trained them all to be more vertical than wide but still I'm concerned about having enough light coverage without squashing them all up. I personally don't like to do this as it messes with my airflow through the canopy. Other then that all good. Thanks for passing. Grow well 🌿💚🌿🙏🏼

Week 6 Flower – A Hard Lesson: Bud Rot Quick Recap – From Seed to Here This Lava Cake run started beautifully: • Germination was smooth and fast using the Cannakan with Aptus Regulator and Start Booster. • Veg went strong, with both phenos thriving under the Black Series LED and later joined by ThinkGrow and Lumatek support. • Transplants into 11L fabric pots gave them space to expand, roots looked stunning. • Early flower (weeks 1–4) brought explosive growth, thick white hairs, and dense colas forming under carefully tuned nutrition — Aptus base inputs with Plagron complements. But the same density that made these flowers shine also made them vulnerable. High humidity swings and airflow inconsistencies created the perfect conditions for bud rot (Botrytis cinerea) to sneak in. What Happened This Week Despite our best efforts, phenotype two (Lava Cake #2) showed visible signs of bud rot. To protect the garden, she was harvested early. Infected material was thrown straight into the trash (not compost — spores spread too easily), and the healthy parts are now drying in a separate, controlled space. Phenotype one (Lava Cake #1) remains in the tent. She has minor spots, but overall is swelling and pushing forward. She’ll be closely monitored daily to make sure the infection doesn’t spread. 👉 Full educational article from Zamnesia: 🔗 Bud Rot Cannabis Grower Guide – Zamnesia https://www.zamnesia.com/grow-weed/563-bud-rot-cannabis-grower-guide What Bud Rot Is • Caused by Botrytis cinerea, a fungus that thrives in warm, humid, poorly ventilated conditions. • Begins inside dense buds, hidden from sight, and by the time it appears on the surface, the inner cola is usually already compromised. • Spreads quickly if unchecked, especially in crowded flowering rooms. Why It Happened • Humidity spikes during flower. • Airflow not perfectly balanced, leaving “dead spots” in the canopy. • Dense colas trapping moisture. • Temperature swings stressing the balance further. Prevention Tips (for us and for everyone reading) • Lower humidity in mid/late flower (40–50%, then 35–40% near harvest). • Strong airflow: oscillating fans above and below canopy + efficient extraction/intake. need improving in here for my next run • Regular defoliation to open the canopy. • Daily inspections of the biggest buds. • Harvest at the right time — pushing too long in risky environments can invite problems. What to Expect / Not to Expect Going Forward • Lava Cake #2: She’s drying now. Expect about 2 weeks of slow, careful drying under controlled temps and humidity. With bud rot, extra caution is needed — we won’t rush, but we’ll also make sure nothing risky makes it through. Expect reduced yield because of the early cut and loss of infected colas, but quality and safety will come first. • Lava Cake #1: She will continue swelling in the tent. Expect daily monitoring, improved airflow, and cautious optimism. If she stays strong, she could still finish beautifully. • The Room: We’ll dial in airflow and humidity management even tighter, keeping CO₂ and temps in check, and prepare the AC unit to avoid these swings in the future. Closing Thoughts Bud rot is a tough enemy, but also one of the most important teachers in growing. It reminds us that environment control is just as vital as genetics or nutrients. Yes, we lost part of this run, but we also gained experience that will make every future run stronger. And sharing this openly might help others spot it sooner, act faster, and maybe even save their crop.

Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 P.S. – Drying After Bud Rot Harvest For Lava Cake #2, we harvested the entire plant and are drying her whole. Because bud rot was present, we’re being extra careful: • Drying in a separate, controlled space, away from the main room. • Temperature kept around 18–20°C, with humidity 50–55% — steady and stable. • Gentle airflow moving through the room, never directly on the buds. • Daily inspections to ensure no hidden spots continue developing. The goal is a slow 10–14 day dry, preserving as much aroma and quality as possible, while making absolutely sure nothing unhealthy makes it through. With bud rot, safety comes first — anything questionable goes straight to the trash. 👉 Why whole-plant drying? By leaving the plant intact, moisture moves more gradually from stems and inner tissues to the buds. This slows down the drying process, prevents overdrying, and helps preserve delicate terpenes and flavonoids that give Lava Cake her unique flavor. Especially after a bud rot scare, a steady, controlled dry is essential for both safety and quality.

This strain is very resistant of beginner mistakes. And very productive with no training or topping. So with a little training it's can be very good.

I've been away for a week, leaving my tent in the care of a friend. Coming back I was surprised to see how much bud growth has occurred, as you can see colas are really starting to stack up, and trichromes are already appearing. AK48 seems to have some purple coloration creeping in on her buds which is really beautiful, just hard to capture as my led throws a purple hue on my photos in the first place. Today I spent two hours trimming leaves from the tent and have kept the airflow at a healthy level. Happy at how everything is looking, and at only three weeks into flowering she seems really promising. Stay tuned!

Venimos muy bien con todas las plantas a pesar de esta ola de calor que no se quiere ir. Por un lado las fancy están en su etapa de lavado para ser cortadas próximamente. Las colombian Jack vienen flotando muy vigorosamente, y la kritikak k se está bancando el calor del exterior como puede

Das Licht auf 250 Watt MH geändert. 2 von den 6 Pflanzen zeigten Mangelerscheinungen (ich denke Cal/Mag) da mit reinem Regenwasser + geringe Menge an Nährstoffen gegossen wurde. Jetzt ist das Wasser zum gießen halb Leitungswasser und halb Regenwasser, seitdem mit einem EC Wert von 0,4 keine Probleme mehr. Das Wachstum ist soweit aus meiner Sicht okay. Da ich aufgrund der Außentemperaturen und der geringen Wattleistung der Lampe noch nicht mit aktiver zuluft arbeiten kann, ist ein CO2 Beutel oberhalb des Ventilator aufgehängt. Mit einem CO2 Messgerät wurden 490 ppm an den Pflanzenspitzen gemessen......

PURPLE KUSH / KANNABIA SEEDS WEEK #21 OVERALL WEEK #10 FLOWER This was her last week she produced some nice buds that have a hue to them as they are covered in trichomes and she's got a aroma to her that smacks you!! Stay Growing!! Thank you for stopping by and taking a look it's much appreciated!! THANK YOU KANNABIA!!! KANNABIA.COM PURPLE KUSH

She got topped on day 17 I think🤔 💭😂the day after she's praying like never before, its day 21 now after being topped the new tips have been exposed and she hasn't skipped a beat, first time using these genetics and they seem OK up to now, time will tell. Peace 🏻

@MephistoGenetics, Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. This is my second cultivation ever and it will be fun to try a bigger space than my closet grow. First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of ​​3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable environment in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 10 pcs 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. But there are no cultivation rooms to be displayed here, so I continue with what is most important. I am very excited to see how the new growroom will work and how this Stilton Special will turn out. Strain Name: Stilton Special F1 Genetic heritage - Sour Livers F3 x Northern Cheese Haze F3 Strain behaviour - Stilton grows well from the off, and develops into a stout but branchy specimine that leads to a fine yield of awesome flowers. She's not too stretchy but also is sizeable enough with good growth, to train and shape to your liking. Flowers develop pretty fast and grow to a good size, it may to advised to clear out some undergrowth and if needs be a very gentle defoliation mid-way through the grow, although leaf tucking may suffice well enough.The end product is of top shelf quality and she doesn't lack in yield either.Give your garden, nose, and body a treat and be sure to indulge in a slice of Stilton this year, You won't regret it. Size - 50 - 70 cm Structure - Medium height but bushy Flower Density - 9/10 Indica/Sativa - 65/35 Cycle Time - 65 to 70 days from sprout Yield - 90 to 140 grams as a single plant Best Method for overall high yield - 9-12 per 1,2m x 1,2m sq in 10-15 Liter pots (Soil) Aroma - Very strong, Cheesey/fruity/sour/spicey/ with a dash of coffee. Taste - Dank berries Effect - Good hybrid powerful but balanced effect Medicinal Benefits - TBA Best Grown - Indoor/Greenhouse Cannabinoids - TBA Extract information - Ideal extract candidate - High in resin, oil and terps. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-18. Start of week 4. I have defoliated her and she got water and nutes. She is 17 cm high and have not start to stretch yet. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-19. 2 new fan is installed in the grow room. Added pic and video. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-20. Kl 23.00. Did some massive defoliation, added video and pics ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2017-09-22. The girl has recovered well after my massive defoliation. She is now 22 cm high. I accidentally lowered the lamp a bit too far down and burned some leaves on one girl. They have got water and nutrition today.
