plants are going to be too big. i will have to figure something else out because i havent done any LST or anything to get them to stop,i wanted to see what they look like completely natural . i will probably angle the light and supplement the blurple light on the other side, and just turn the plant a couple times a day. if you have a better suggestion let me know

7-10-2025 . je commence mon rincage aujourdhui,le 9-10-2025. je prévoit de coupe rla plante en pot le 18 octobre. je surveilles les trichomes avec le microscope. il ya eut de tres grosses rafales de vent dû à la tempête... des rafales de 70,80 kmh.. une petite branche a cassé sur celle en pot. j ai coupé cette branche et nettoyé les buds pour les faire sécher... l'autre plante en pleine terre, une gross ebranche à cassé, mais hereusement pas totalement cassée... la seve passe encore dedans. les feuilles et buds ont l'air bien. pas fané ni rien. donc le 18 octobre je serai à la 8 eme semaine de floraison pour celle en pot. celle en terre à 2 semaines de retard comparé à celle en pot... je sais que c'est pas top de filmer quand il fait noir, mais c'est + impressionnant. ;-)

Yoo it’s kofi cultivates it’s week 3 veg the growth has been explosive from week 2 to week 3 Thanks for following along with my journey. Keep on growing

LOOK AT THESE COLORS! Harvest coming in a couple weeks, she looks like a beaut. Not a huge yielder but that could be my equipment as well.

Setup is onpoint😍

10/29 fighting off spidermites on some of the smaller plants 10/30 using spinosad and safer brand insecticidal soap 11/01 the mainlined plant is finally starting to grow upwards. other plants seem to have deficiency. then plant 2 and 3 need to be transplantwd from their 1 gal

Everything looking nominal. One girl is looking a little weak but that may have been my doing. All others look more or less the same. Nutrient schedule the same. Did a res clean and replace. Using reverse osmosis water. PPM’s hovering around 280-300. Water temp 20ish °c

I want going to defoliate but was only right to! It was getting a bit jungly in there and I want to utilise a such light as possible! They are 7 days in flower now (day 8) and looking so good I can’t wait to see the final result! Also I had tried to super crop my fft2 as it stretched a little higher than the rest! But all in all I have not a compliant! Thank you fastbuds

The Lemon Orange has a crazy mutation. She topped herself and the leaves are growing strange from the main stem. The Top gets Fluffy like it has topped itself multiple times. Unfortunately, during my absence, the ladies were under-watered and could’ve used a bit of nutrients as well. I’m optimistic they’ll bounce back and recover. I topped and defoliated them. Light is hitting the leaves with around 500 PPFD.

Going to call these LemonWalker CB? Since it is about 50/50 Chance of being either hight THC or medium THC/CBD first one will go to flower Saturday Looking good definantly tow diffrent growth phenos LemonWalker 1 goes to flower Tomorrow after I take clones

2025-01-01 - Germination directly in PRO-MIX HP CC in starter trays on a seedling heat mat under a humidity dome. 2025-01-04 - Transplanted into 1 liter plastic pots and placed in starter box. I kept them under the humidity dome for the first couple of weeks. 2025-01-17 - Moved to finishing tent with ViparSpectre P2000 2025-01-31 - Topped and moved to Veg tent. I selected these seeds during the holiday sale at Seedbank.com. I was ordering some NL#5 (a different diary), and I saw the Purple Punch on sale. Having wanted to add some anthocyanins (purples) to some of my other strains, and finding the description of this particular cultivar appealing, I ordered 5 beans. They sprang to life like they were glad to be home. In the last week of the seedling phase, they exploded in growth, with wide leaflets INDICAtive of indica (not a typo, maybe bad dad joke). These are some of the shortest, stockiest plants I've had in the grow tent yet. They handle light well and in close proximity to the canopy, they are stacked thick with branches.

It has been a good week. The NTs are fattening and getting covered in ice! They are also loosing most of the lower leaves, I'm a bit afraid that they lose too many, I hope not! Now after two weeks of stretch it seems like they stopped ascending. I can't wait to see how this coming week will go!

Dans l'ordre: 1) Afghan Peach x Blue Monkey 2) Gelato Cake 3) Fast Critical Poison 4) Tropical Fuel 5) Hindu Kush 6) (Blueberry x Black Domina) X (Kosher Kush x Mk-Ultra) 7) Blueberry 8) Herz OG 9) (Blueberry x Black Domina) X (Kosher Kush x Mk-Ultra)

01/11 Girls are blowing up. About mid stretch. True week one of flower 01/12 Switched out the MH for the HPS. They are running at 1150w with the UVBs. I will be adding some LED to mix the spectrum up a little more, plus i feel like they want more light even though its nuclear in there. They had a couple drinks of H2O this week. PH’ed to 6.0 using the bokashi/ffj. These plants wreak soo good when i brush up against them. IMO-The Bokashi/ffj adds soo much!!

Week6 of bloom, feeding Cal-mag+Floranova Bloom, both at 1tsp/gal. Each plant receives a glug or two from a 1gallon mixture. Runoff is removed. New Clones of different phenos have entered the arena! Happy growing!

Le zerberry crescono copiosamente Continua la crescita lenta delle pink poochie e di una delle due happy ending Ho toppato le 3 zerberry al 5º internodo

Well it would seem I'm addicted to growing as predicted. In the last week, I had a friend donate me a 2x4 tent. So I went ahead and grabbed an HLG 135w Rspec to compliment the 100w V2 3000K I already had. Set up the 2x2 as a veg room for next grow so I can get a perpetual garden going. Onto week 1 of flower nutes from Green Planet. Seems like my ideal inflow EC is 800. Still watering just twice daily at 6am & 6pm. Adding nutes in correct NER, adjusting EC then adding macronutrients as well as GPH at the end. Massive amount of growth going on now. Node stacking and branches coming up to join the canopy. Considered defoliation but if I'm going to do it, I'm going to wait until the girls pre flower. I do not want to interrupt photosynthetic growth and trigger the flower phase. Each day these plants stay in veg equals more weight in flower when we are all done. Added an Exhale bag. Science seems to dictate that additional co2 will not create any additional growth in a vented tent (like mine). Also, your lights need to reach a concentration of 1000µmols/m2 which mine do not. But I had already paid for the thing and had it shipped before learning this. Oh well, I'm sure it wont hurt! Keeping the lights up high to try and keep some stretch going. Will update as the week progresses

Thank you to all that have helped me along this journey. All of the answers, tips, comments, likes, and other diaries have been so very motivating to me. I originally started this diary only for my own reference but I'm so pleased to have learned that others have found it helpful or interesting, for whatever reason. If you're curious about equipment see the germination page and if you have questions feel free to drop me a line. So, without further ado: Jan 19 Day 105 Harvest day! 🎉🎉 Not really knowing how to tackle the situation, I started by cutting all of the fan leaves I was able to reach. Then, I cut each branch working from the perimeter inward - which due to the way she grew, was essentially the same as working from the bottom branches of the meristem to the top. Each branch was cut, cleaned, and handled individually before moving on to the next. Decided to wet-trim most of the branches, leaving 4 fairly untouched (only fan leaves were removed). Will be interested to see the differences, if any. They're all drying/hanging near the grow tent ~45%RH, 72F (22C). It isn't completely dark though, as some light is escaping the tent into the closet where they are hanging. I'm hoping this isn't terrible but I'll be keeping my eye on them. The process took the better part of an evening but I was cautiously learning, taking breaks, and generally being fairly slow. I'm sure I'll be faster and more confident next time. Jan 27 Day 113 Drying is complete, I think. Branches were hung and dried for 8 days in a consistent 68F (20C) 40% RH. They were determined to be dried after hearing a snap when bending (not breaking) large stems and buds felt dry to touch. Sugar leaves bordering on crispy while buds still had some give / fluffiness. The flowers from previously manicured branches were relatively easily plucked. However, the dry trimming process for the unmanicured branches proved to be a bit of a pain. They have been placed in a pyrex container to cure. I'm hoping flavors and aromas that are currently lacking will develop in time. 🤞 --- Stats --- Veg time: ~45 days. Flowering time: ~60 days. Height ~18in., ~46cm. Main Bud Length: ~9in., 23cm. Harvested 16 Hangable branches and a few extra medium/small buds. Bud Wet Weight, with stems: 242g, ~8.5oz. Larf/Popcorn Sugar-leaf Wet Weight (not counted above): 18g, ~0.6oz. Leaf/Waste Wet Weight: 38g, ~1.3oz. Drying time: 8 days. Dried Weight with Stems: 70g, ~2oz. Trimmed and Dried Total Bud Weight: 50g, ~1.75oz. --- Thoughts in hindsight --- Firstly, I can't believe I haven't tried growing sooner. So rewarding in so many ways! My initial hope was to harvest an oz., so I am obviously quite happy we could surpass that mark by a good margin. This is a testament to the plant more than me of course, as I was completely inexperienced and was purposefully as hands-off as I could be comfortable with throughout her growth. I can only imagine things will improve with time. Paper-towel germination seems to be prone to more stress for myself and arguably the seedling as well. Floating in 1% H2O2 solution seems to be ideal for me. I made bad soil choices. This mixture seemed to be too dense, leading to some watering/strangulation issues mid-growth. My 2nd grow consisting of mostly coco coir seems healthier and seems easier to maintain proper hydration. Coco might also be reusable while this soil definitely seems spent now. I didn't respect pH at first and initial testing was eye-opening. That said, after simply testing water and fertilizer readings a few times, I gradually felt more comfortable with guestimating during most feedings, only testing sporadically later in her life cycle. This seemed to be fine and was a bit of a relief after early testing proved tedious every feed. I've been happy with Better-Gro orchid fertilizer. This is of course contrary to most advice, which I admit is probably for good reason. That said though, I didn't notice any major toxicities or deficiencies during her grow. So, these products seem to have worked for me and are so much more affordable than cannabis-specific fertilizers. I was quite weary about not having cal-mag, but this never seemed to be an issue in this particular case. However, I'll be keeping a similar eye on my 2nd grow in coco, which I understand may need it. Training and pruning is important. This plant was quite bushy and wild likely resulting in quite a bit of unnecessary larf/popcorn. Not to mention the additional time needed to trim when harvesting. Also regarding training, pipe cleaners can leave noticeable cuts in the stem they hold. Thickly coated flexible garden wire would likely be ideal. I need to get a loupe or magnifying attachment for the phone. Digital zoom with shaky hands is not great for checking trichomes and my 3x magnifying glass just doesn't cut it. I cannot speak toward potency or yield without more experience, but simply for the sake of a greener hue, I think I could've harvested her a week earlier. Because I left a few branches untended during dry, I was able to experience both the wet and dry trimming processes. Unless keeping leaves for extra humidity during drying, I seem to prefer wet trimming as the still supple leaves were easier to remove with less bud handling. I'll add more thoughts if/when they come. Thank you again for stopping by! 👋
