10cm vertical growth this week! She's bushed out loads too. Look at her stem. I'm trying some 'HST' if that's what its called? During last week I have crushed the stalk with pliers. Trying to crush and damage the outer 'skin' while leaving the core intact. The plant has already reacted by thickening/strengthening the stalk considerably. I am hoping to stress the plant to ultimately attain a bigger yield. But, as I have no idea what I'm doing, lets see where this journey takes me. Also, only bottom watering from now on too.........

Thank you for reading I will continue to update once they are drying and ready for cure. I have cut down in jar everything the wait was 91 grams please consider that when they comes to my scale weight i wait until the main stem breaks with a loud crunch and the buds are really dry to the touch reason for it I have a very busy life and at the end of the day this is just a hobby so I cannot be opening those jars many times a day at most one in the morning and one in night so I want to avoid mold on them.so I push in a Boveda pack to keep them nice. After three weeks in jar that smell has incremented a lot be aware if where you are it's not allowed to smoke because once you open that bag or container everybody knows you open one of those buds it is incredibly powerful smoke and it is very very smooth great strain to have. Taste 10 out of 10 Aroma 10 out of 10 High 10 out of 10 . Night. strong THC. Yield 10out of 10. Taste 10 out of 10 Aroma 10 out of 10 High 10 out of 10 . Night. strong THC. Yield 10out of 10. thank you for reading have a happy grow

Hi Growmies, I'm excited to share some big news today! Although there have been some unexpected twists, it's all part of the incredible journey of gardening. I've just completed the harvest, a tad earlier than initially planned, due to finding a bit of mold in one of the buds. Despite this minor hiccup, the trichomes were already at a decent 10% to 15% amber. So, all things considered, the timing ended up being pretty spot-on. The harvested weight was a solid 609 grams after trimming, which is quite a feat! A lesson learned for next time: perhaps I let her grow a few too many buds, leading to a denser canopy than ideal. But on the bright side, the aroma is absolutely divine. I sampled an airy bud that had dried a bit, and wow, it packs a stronger punch than its clone mother. And the flavor? Pure, unadulterated cheese – no hint of pineapple here! Now, the anticipation builds for the final dry weight, which I should know in about 3-4 days. It's always exciting to see the fruits of our labor fully realized. A huge thanks to everyone who's been following along on this journey. Your interest and support mean the world. And now, the adventure continues! I've started on Epic Buzz by Anesia Seeds. The diary for this new chapter is up and running, and the seedlings have already sprouted, marking the beginning of another exciting phase. (https://growdiaries.com/diaries/185718-grow-journal-by-salokin) I can't wait to share more updates with you all. Here's to the continued growth and learning in our gardening adventures!

​📖 Chroniques de l'Oasis : La Marque Blanche ​đŸȘ Chapitre 12 : : Le CrĂ©puscule de la Sultane ​Date : Mercredi 13 Mai 2026 Âge : J+84 Taille : 67 cm (L'ApogĂ©e) ​Le voyage touche Ă  son terme. ❀ La Sultane, immobile et majestueuse Ă  67 cm, ne cherche plus Ă  conquĂ©rir le ciel. Elle a choisi de consacrer ses derniers jours Ă  la densitĂ©, au poids et Ă  l'Ă©clat. Ses formes sont maintenant si gĂ©nĂ©reuses qu'elles semblent porter en elles toute l'histoire de l'Oasis. ​Ses parures de cristal, autrefois transparentes comme le verre, se troublent d'un blanc laiteux, annonçant que le trĂ©sor est mĂ»r. Elle a abandonnĂ© ses voiles de verdure, dĂ©pĂ©rissant avec une grĂące royale pour que seule brille sa couronne. La semaine prochaine, elle sera coupĂ©e, quittant le monde des vivants pour entrer dans celui des souvenirs Ă©ternels du Rif. â€‹đŸœïž Le Climat du Sanctuaire ​La paix rĂšgne dans l'Oasis: ​Chaleur : 25°C le jour / 21°C la nuit. ​HumiditĂ© : 50%. ​LumiĂšre : IntensitĂ© 75%, Ă  55 cm. ​ La SobriĂ©tĂ© de l'Adieu ​Le temps des festins est terminĂ©, place Ă  la puretĂ© : ​Apport : le 13/05 1,5 litres d'eau PH 6,3 donnĂ©e ​Objectif : Laisser la terre sĂ©cher peu Ă  peu pour que la Sultane ressente le stress final du dĂ©sert, celui qui pousse la rĂ©sine Ă  son paroxysme avant la rĂ©colte. ​🔬 L'Analyse du nomade ​Le Gonflement Final : Les tĂȘtes ont pris une ampleur incroyable. Les calices se sont empilĂ©s, crĂ©ant des tours compactes de fleurs. ​La Robe de Pourpre : On observe sur les feuilles sommitales des teintes automnales, des pourpres et des jaunes profonds. C'est la signature d'une plante qui a tout donnĂ©. ​Laiteux et Cristallin : Les trichomes sont Ă  leur point de bascule. La majoritĂ© est laiteuse, offrant cet aspect "givre intense". Quelques reflets encore transparents subsistent, mais le gros du travail est accompli. ​SĂ©nescence Totale : La plante est "en fin de vie" visuelle, ce qui est exactement ce que nous recherchons. Elle a consommĂ© ses propres tissus pour nourrir ses fleurs. ​📜 L'Anecdote du Rif : La "FĂȘte de la Faucille d'Argent" ​Dans les montagnes du Rif, la rĂ©colte n'Ă©tait pas un simple travail agricole, c'Ă©tait un Ă©vĂ©nement sacrĂ© qui soudait toute la tribu. ​La fĂȘte avant la rĂ©colte : Juste avant de couper les plantes les plus nobles, les cultivateurs organisaient ce qu'on appelait la "N'za". Le soir prĂ©cĂ©dant la coupe, on se rĂ©unissait autour d'un grand feu. Les anciens racontaient des lĂ©gendes sur les ancĂȘtres qui avaient ramenĂ© les premiĂšres graines d'Orient. ​On prĂ©parait un repas spĂ©cial Ă  base de semoule fine et de beurre de montagne fondu. Le moment le plus beau Ă©tait le rituel du "Musique du Vent" : les villageois jouaient du ghaita (hautbois) et du bendir (tambourin) au bord des champs. Ils croyaient que la vibration de la musique aidait la plante Ă  libĂ©rer ses derniers arĂŽmes. C'Ă©tait une fĂȘte de gratitude envers la terre. On ne coupait jamais dans la tristesse, mais dans la joie, car on savait que la plante allait continuer Ă  vivre Ă  travers ceux qui la partageraient. ❀❀❀ ​🙏 Remerciements Ă  la CommunautĂ© ​Au moment oĂč cette aventure touche Ă  sa fin, mon cƓur de Nomade est rempli de gratitude. Je tenais Ă  remercier chaleureusement toute la communautĂ© pour votre soutien indĂ©fectible, vos messages prĂ©cieux et vos encouragements constants tout au long de cette culture. ​Vos conseils et votre prĂ©sence dans l'Oasis ont Ă©tĂ© pour moi comme une source d'eau fraĂźche dans le dĂ©sert. Chaque partage a nourri l'Ă©clat de la Sultane et rendu ce journal de bord plus vivant. Ce trĂ©sor de cristal est aussi un peu le vĂŽtre. Merci d'avoir marchĂ© Ă  mes cĂŽtĂ©s sur les sentiers du Rif. ​Note du Nomade : " Elle ne grandit plus, elle s'Ă©ternise. Ses joyaux sont laiteux comme la lune sur le Rif. Le couteau attend, mais le cƓur hĂ©site devant tant de beautĂ©."

Topped once, turned off IR @ nights, slowed vertical growth back down, and took off both of the very lowest internodes on each plant. Eisenia fetida Stratiolaelaps scimitus Armadillidium vulgare Red wigglers (Eisenia fetida) are highly beneficial. They are considered an ideal choice for "no-till" or container-based organic growing because they live in the upper layers of soil, feeding on organic mulch rather than the plant's root system. Red wigglers accelerate the breakdown of organic amendments and produce high-quality, nutrient-dense worm castings directly in the root zone. Clover is another exceptional component of an organic rhizosphere, offering a sustainable, self-sustaining alternative to synthetic nitrogen fertilizers produced via the energy-intensive Haber-Bosch process. By forming a symbiotic relationship with Rhizobia bacteria, clover converts atmospheric nitrogen N2 into ammonium NH4, providing a steady, slow-release nutrient source that enhances soil health and reduces environmental impacts. Red clover offers superior nitrogen fixation and biomass production compared to white or yellow clover, making it the premier choice for maximum soil vitality, particularly for improving soil structure and providing a high-volume nitrogen credit for subsequent crops. If it is fully functional and efficient soil, the rhizophagy cycle is superior long-term than any synthetic delivery when it comes to preventing deficiencies, not because it's "better," per se. The medium will require a very high CEC to make it to harvest without re-fertilization. The rhizosphere acts as a dynamic, interactive exchange where plants and soil microbes trade resources based on immediate needs. When a plant lacks a specific nutrient, it changes its physiology and releases specialized chemical cocktails—root exudates—into the surrounding soil. These exudates, which include sugars, amino acids, and organic acids, serve as a "shopping list" to attract specific microorganisms, which in turn return higher levels of desired nutrients. There is nothing in comparison when using synthetic delivery, which can cause plants to stop producing exudates, effectively "starving" the beneficial soil life, over time turning the soil barren and void of microbial life. Responsible use, applying the right amount at the right time, can minimize these negative effects. Relying solely on synthetic fertilizers without replenishing organic matter is what typically leads to exhausted soil. The use of synthetic fertilizers can utilize the Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC) of the soil, but without a robust rhizosphere and active microorganisms, the efficiency of this process is significantly reduced. This makes synthetic growing more difficult to prevent deficiencies overall compared to an efficient organic living soil with a robust rhizophagy cycle, as there is no "one size, fits all" when it comes to different nutrient profiles of strains/genetics, making it trickier to "guess" and prevent creeping deficiencies. CEC does not contribute towards EC. Add more CEC using biochar, problem solved. If you keep pH between 6.3 and 6.7, hydrogen is exudated to cycle the medium's CEC for its needs. Keeping the pH between 6.3 and 6.7 creates an environment where plants release H+ to displace positively charged nutrients (like Ca2+, Mg2+, K+ held on soil particles or within artificial media this cycle through nutrients via the medium's Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC) Microorganisms generate a stable potential of approximately 0.5 V EC. The rhizosphere creates its own food, similarly to chelation, using 1000's of varying combinations to create its own food. Start to finish, just add water. Eventually, more materials will need to be added at the beginning of each new grow, but very attainable to go from seed to harvest without ever fertilizing. ATP is important when it comes to biomass accumulation. Cellular root respiration and cellular respiration are essentially the same biological process, the breakdown of glucose to create usable energy (ATP) in the presence of oxygen, just taking place in different parts of the plant. Synthetic (salt-based) grows have significantly lower levels of total rhizosphere respiration, often referred to as root-zone activity, compared to organic living soil grows. While the plant roots themselves may respire in both systems, the surrounding soil ecosystem in a living soil setup is vastly more active, teeming with bacteria, fungi, and beneficial microorganisms. 2 pools of ATP, it won't double in growth buuuut, but improving root respiration by ensuring high oxygen in the soil is crucial. Good aeration ensures roots can fully utilize glucose to generate the ATP necessary for nutrient uptake, leading to healthier and more productive plants, even if growth isn't exactly doubled. The ATP created using root respiration is dedicated to rootzone growth; the ATP created using regular cellular respiration in a synthetic system would have to dedicate a lot of ATP to the roots when there is little or no root respiration. It's true that there is less of an initial ATP cost in breakdown when nutrients are already in their final form (synthetic), but you lose a solid chunk of ATP when the entire plant is reliant on cellular respiration alone; a large portion of ATP is dedicated to root zones for "forced" nutrient uptake rather than traded. Making it overall less efficient, even if the initial cost of breakdown is higher. Not sure if I butchered that but one can hope It makes sense. Oxygen is of critical importance when growing in living soil compared to synthetic soil because it supports the metabolic needs of the microbial, fungal, and insect ecosystem, rather than just the root respiration required by the plant itself. While synthetic grows can survive in lower-oxygen environments with precise mineral feeding, living soil systems rely on aerobic microbes to decompose organic matter (microbial mineralization) to create plant-available nutrients, which is an oxygen-intensive process. While a specific fair percentage is difficult to guess, my experience points to a massive, compound difference between the two methods and the amount of oxygen required. All the ATP spared is used on more biomass, not only that, but the extra root respiration can achieve a much higher CO2 compensation point naturally than you could with synthetic and atmospheric CO2 alone. As a plant grows faster and increases in size, its demand for nutrients to support that growth increases, requiring a higher rate of nutrient uptake. As plants enter phases of rapid vegetative/floral growth, their metabolic demand for nutrients increases exponentially. Without a robust buffer zone—whether in the soil (cation exchange capacity) or in a hydroponic reservoir—deficiencies will occur rapidly because the instantaneous demand for specific nutrients can quickly exceed the rate of supply. A growing body of evidence suggests that organic living soil provides superior long-term soil health and environmental benefits compared to synthetic fertilizers, which are often criticized for promoting a cycle of dependency and degradation. While synthetic fertilizers offer short-term convenience and high yields, they often come at the expense of long-term soil health, sustainability, and increased corporate control over growers/ farmers. Organic living soil, while slower and requiring more care to establish, creates a sustainable, resilient, and, ultimately, more fertile environment. We don't really grow; we facilitate energy conversions, and energy is just numbers. Because the universe works the same way today as it did yesterday, there is a single, fundamental mathematical quantity that remains constant. We call this quantity energy. You cannot put "energy" under a microscope. You observe matter and forces (like heat, motion, or light), but energy is just a scalar number calculated to help predict how these things will change and interact. When an object falls, or when a battery powers your phone, matter shifts and changes form. Through it all, the universe ensures the "total score" of the numbers remains exactly the same. Once all water is removed, approximately 95% to 97% of a plant’s dry matter consists of carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen. These three elements form the structural backbone of all plants. NPK & all the rest 3-5%. Indigenous Amazonians created, or at least significantly enhanced, the fertile, dark soil known as Terra Preta de Índio (Portuguese for "Indian Black Earth") by incorporating biochar and other organic materials into the soil. This anthropogenic (human-made) soil technique, which dates back roughly 2,500 to 8,000 years, allowed ancient civilizations to flourish in regions with naturally poor, acidic, and nutrient-poor tropical soils.

Another week of growth in the books here. I am loving the flowers peyote forum is putting off. Starting to see some purple colours starting on these plant. Also noticing one of the plants starting to lose its colour which has me concerned as I saw some bugs on this plant a few weeks ago and sprayed for them, something to keep an eye on moving forward. I top dressed these plants with 1 tbsp/gallon of Power Bloom and hit them with a compost tea made up of worm castings, Bokashi Pro Gro, Molasses and Bat Guano. This will be the last feeding I give these plants.

Day 42 from sprout. I been torn on if I'm going to transplant again. I know that since i am doing an organic grow its all about that soil and its microbes. I feel I been doing pretty good with these 3 gallon pots so far and only got a 2x4x6 to grow in. That being said I did top dress today 2-11 with my gaia green fertilizers and did a bit of defoliation. They lookin like their 60 year old blind Auntie cut their hair and look mangled but I just defoliated an hr before I took these pics. I am considering on transplanting to 5 gal before i flip to flower in about a month but not sure yet.

Su primera semana de floraciĂłn y la planta ha crecido casi 10cm đŸ”„ Hemos empezado a suministrar los nutrientes de floraciĂłn de una manera progresiva, empezando por 1ml de cada uno para estimular los brotes. De la misma manera reducimos poco a poco los de vegetaciĂłn para no estresar a la planta. Empieza a crear los primeros pistilos y crecen rapidamente đŸ’Ș las hojas se ven muy sanas đŸ’Ș🍀

This week brought some unexpected challenges My dehumidifier broke down, and until I fix it or find a replacement, the humidity has been spiking really high — definitely not ideal for flowering. đŸ’ŠđŸŒ«ïž I need to resolve this as soon as possible before it causes serious problems. Aside from that, the plants are thriving and almost running on autopilot! đŸŒ±đŸ’š They did show some stress after the recent demolition and lollipopping session, so I decided to lower the light intensity a bit to help them transition through this phase more smoothly. 💡✹ Despite the humidity issue, everything still looks promising — just hoping I can get the environment back under control soon! đŸŒżđŸ€ž

This plant is a test of a new genetic I hope to release from GHSC which I thank for letting me try these delicacies. The highest quality is the resin, oh my how much resin has spread on the flowers and leaves, even the most peripheral ones. Exceptional way of rendering this plant. It's also very very fast, ready in 9 weeks and I really love the way even the leaves turn dark on purple at the end of their life, beautiful. The production also seems excellent we have a great result on the scales, the flowering is in clusters, you are not impressed by the space between one internode and the other from a cluster flowering but the flowers are dense and heavy and with this resin for me it could flourish as it pleases. I really hope that the GHSC masters decide to let it out, I advise you to be careful on the site and on social networks and grab more serious seeds than the situation for the season. https://greenhouseseeds.nl Try powdered feedings! https://shop.greenhousefeeding.com/us/ Mars is a leading company and it shows in the quality and quantity of the crops! https://www.mars-hydro.com/
