She grows nice and quick if you Treat her well! I transplanted and made a couple mistakes so she didn’t reach 100% imo but it’s still a nice turn out! Hadn’t she not gotten pollinated I think the yield would’ve been more! Oh well still not a bad turnout will compare her to my other cut of this strain I have finishing up! Check it out, thanks for reading

27.05. Today is the end of the fourth week for the plant. In a couple of days I will transplant it and top it off, the good weather is finally coming... The plants spent most of the day outside today, and at some moments there was a very strong wind, and I was not there, so now they are protesting a bit and probably angry that I left them..to apologize, I played them half an hour of quality reggae music, so I hope we'll be fine by tomorrow lol Stay high and keep growing my brothers ‘n’ sisters!!!

Power Flower is now only an inch shorter than the Holy Punch 600W light is 9 inches away from plant (over the holy punch (Trying to give the two Power Flowers more room to grow))

All went steady! Re-Adjusted my Fan positions & velocity! Full 900W running again - Lights were moved further from canopy to decrease leaf temperature. I pruned some affected leaf tips/fingers Pest & Mould prevention H2o2 Lets hope for the best

Hello growers and tokers! 👋 👩‍🌾 🧑‍🌾.🔥💨 There has been much change this week!! First there was a big defoliation done, I cleaned the bottom of the plants. All the growth that wouldn't amount to anything because the light doesn't penetrate that low. Also took off the biggest fan leaves to give more room for light. Then finally switched to 12/12.. After just 36 hours after the defoliation there was a major change. New growth everywhere, colas started stretching upwards fast. By far the tallest girls in the tent. Her colas are stacking up nice and tight if she keeps that up we'll have some nice dense colas. 😁 Great reaction to the defoliation and 12/12 switch. I'm still watering every other day, After the defoliation I watered with only Enzymes 2ml/L to clean the roots a bit then started with the nutrientes again. I dropped the amount of grow nutrients from 3ml/L to 1ml/L and started adding bloom nutrientes 2ml/L for now. I'll slowly be upping the bloom nutrientes and after week 2 I'll no longer add grow nutrients. That's it for this week. Stay tuned to see how they flower. Stay safe!

Buds started to dry out later in flower

~ FASTBUDS TESTER #2203 ~ Well friends, here we go on another 'canna-venture' together! The grow room has had a complete remodel and some upgrades done to it including brand spanking new 4x8 and 4x4 tents and a Trolmaster Hydro X controller along with a new Control Panel. This tester strain is one of six tester strains that FastBuds has graciously provided me with and I'm looking forward to seeing what this girl has to offer when she's grown to her full potential! One drawback of 'testers' is I have little to no information on it other than its number and that it's an autoflower... 🤪 But, it's ALWAYS a blast growing them for me because not knowing a lot allows me to just concentrate on the essentials: Light, Environment, Water, Nutrients and possibly a bit of LST... not complicated, just basics like keeping a constant temperature and RH in the tent at a level that gives a good VPD, watering when almost dry and maintaining proper light levels according to their stage of growth. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ~THE SETUP~ ~Initially seeds were lightly scuffed, then soaked for 3 hours in 78℉ distilled water after which they were transferred to moist paper towels laid out in a Jiffy Pellet plastic starter tray with lid. Underneath the tray was placed a Mars Hydro Heat Mat with Controller that was set to 78℉ where they stayed until their tap roots emerged. ~Planted into Jiffy Peat Pellets that were hydrated with distilled water warmed to 78℉ with a 7.0 ph. ~Once roots emerge from the Jiffy Pellet they're transferred to their fabric pots. ~Grown 100% organic in a 4g Gronest fabric pot and a 3g fabric pot by Wraxly filled with Mother Earth 70/30 Coco/Perlite medium and initially amended with Dr. Earth 4-4-4 / Earthworm Castings / Dr. Earth Flower Girl 3-9-4 and Coast of Maine Stonington Blend Organic Plant Food 5-2-4. ~19/5 light cycle for the entire run with supplemental UVA added during flower. Lights are controlled by a Trolmaster Hydro X controller set for a 15min Sunrise/Sunset simulation. ~Top dressing every 3-4 weeks with slow release dry amendments and Earthworm castings. ~Straight water ph'd @ 6.2-6.8 when needed and bi-weekly Compost Tea's. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 12/1- I soaked both seeds for 3 hours in 78℉ distilled water after which they were transferred to moist paper towels laid out in a Jiffy Pellet plastic starter tray with lid. Underneath the tray was placed a Vivosun Heat Mat with Controller that was set to 78℉ where they stayed until their tap roots emerged roughly 24 hours later. 12/3- Today their tap roots were about 1/4 to 3/8" so at 11 am I transferred them into Jiffy Peat Pellets that were hydrated with distilled water warmed to 78℉ with a 7.0 ph using a tine off of a plastic fork as a 'mini trowel' to make a hole in the pellet and to gently cover the tap root, leaving only the seed head slightly exposed. This method accomplishes most of the initial work the seed has to do by eliminating having to orientate itself, push it's root down and head up. By 10pm the #1 seed had her cotyledon leaves opened ...waiting on the #2. 🧐 12/5- Well this is Day ONE for the #1 FBT #2203 and I anticipate seeing her sister poking her head out real soon! I'll keep them in the covered/heated Jiffy tray until I see their roots beginning to emerge from the peat pellet, then I'll transfer them gently into their respective fabric pots. The #1 will be going into the 4g Gronest pot from FastBuds and the #2 will reside in a 3g pot by Wraxly, which I'm trying out for the first time. 12/7- Yesterday I checked the #1 tester and she had roots starting to emerge from her pellet so tomorrow I'll transfer her into her 4g Gronest pot. The #2 tester has finally made an appearance and this will be Day One for her! She looks great and I'm confident that she should be ready to transfer into her fabric pot in the next couple of days! 😎💚 Thank you for checking out my passion in life! Please visit as often as you wish and I hope you enjoy this journey as much as I know I will! Grow Strong! 💪😎🤙

Welcome back to another thrilling update on our Lego Ninja Tropical Tangie Run. Week 7 has been an exhilarating journey of rapid growth and breathtaking canopy development. Our Tangie is proving to be an extraordinary ninja superstar! Last week, we embarked on an exciting transplant adventure. Our fearless Tangie had outgrown her previous home, so we bravely transferred her to a spacious 25-liter fabric pot. With the assistance of Aptus Holland Mycor Mix, we ensured a smooth transition, providing her with beneficial mycorrhizal fungi. These underground helpers are like her very own ninja squad, supporting her root system and establishing a strong foundation. To continue supporting her growth and development, we incorporated the incredible Aptus All-in-One Pellets into the soil. These pellets act as potent ninja power capsules, packed with essential nutrients. Each watering session delivers the perfect dose of nourishment, fueling our Tangie's journey to greatness. She's thriving with optimal health and vitality. And let's not forget our loyal companions, the trusty Lego Ninja buddies. They have remained steadfast by our side throughout this green adventure, offering both moral support and an unwavering display of ninja vibes in the grow room. Who would have guessed that little plastic warriors could be such fantastic companions? After the successful transplant, it was time to introduce our Tangie to the art of scrogging. We skillfully installed a scrog net, creating a framework for her to weave her way through. This setup resembles a challenging ninja obstacle course, encouraging her to grow horizontally and maximize her bud production. It's truly remarkable to witness her impressive moves as she gracefully and sexily fills up the space. Of course, proper nutrition remains crucial for our Tangie's ninja training. Instead of using Aptus Holland Veg Watering Mix and All-in-One Liquid separately, we have now transitioned to solely relying on the pellets. These convenient premixed pellets integrated into the soil eliminate the need for additional liquid NPK. This simplification allows us to focus on other essential aspects of her training. To ensure she remains pest-free, we have been diligently conducting leaf picking sessions, which also serve as an opportunity to check for any unwanted visitors. So far, our Tangie has passed with flying colors, and her vibrant 9-fingered leaves are a fantastic sign of her overall health. As our Tangie continues her epic ninja journey, she basks in a PPFD of 600. These photons act as her loyal ninja training partners, stimulating robust photosynthesis and fostering explosive growth. With each photon absorbed, she becomes increasingly formidable, ready to take on any challenge that lies ahead. In summary, Week 7 has been an absolutely exhilarating chapter in our Lego Ninja Tropical Tangie Run. The successful transplant, the magic of Aptus products, the support of our Lego Ninja buddies, and the installation of the scrog net have all played vital roles in our Tangie's remarkable progress. We owe a tremendous SHOUT OUT to Aptus Holland, Dutch Passion, and Grow Diaries for their continued support and exceptional products for the love and for it all, without them nothing we see here wold be possible. Join us for the next update, where we will delve deeper into the fascinating world of ninja training techniques and witness the unfolding of our Tangie's extraordinary ninja powers. Until then, continue cultivating with joy, embrace the indomitable ninja spirit, and remember that every plant has the potential to become a botanical ninja superstar!

Had some issues with mildew this week so have been defoliating and spraying with water and h2o2 , added more wind . After three days this has not solved the problem , so had a friend round with his cleanlight uv-c lamp. Hopefully this will clear the problem, caused by bringing the monster Skittles inside from the back garden.

🍬 Candy Rain Auto by Zamnesia | Week 5 (Late Vegetative Growth / Pre-Flower) 🍬 The Solo Survivor – Small Setback, Big Future Every grow has a story, and not every story begins perfectly. Candy Rain is the only survivor from this folder. Losing her sister early in the project was entirely on me, and that’s simply part of growing. Every mistake becomes another lesson, and rather than focusing on what was lost, this diary celebrates the plant that kept pushing forward. Despite her delayed start, she’s proving that healthy genetics and a stable environment can overcome a rough beginning remarkably quickly. She’s only a few days behind the rest of the room, yet every day she seems determined to close that gap. This project continues documenting how autoflowers perform under a true 12/12 From Seed schedule from germination, challenging the common belief that this lighting regime prevents vigorous development. Supported by the complete Plagron feeding program, grown under the Future of Grow Black Series LED, and thriving inside the Zamnesia-sponsored 8×8 Adventure, Candy Rain is becoming another reminder that every plant deserves its own opportunity to shine. And this week… She absolutely deserves her spotlight. ⸻ 🌱 Week 5 – Catching Up Fast Although I’m still considering this her final week of vegetative growth for reporting purposes, the plant clearly finished the week entering pre-flower. Fresh pistils are now appearing at the top growth, and the transition toward bloom is well underway. Rather than exploding into stretch overnight, Candy Rain is making the change gradually while continuing to build a sturdy framework for flowering. At around 60 cm tall, she isn’t the largest plant in the room, but she’s beautifully proportioned. The internodal spacing is excellent, the main stem continues thickening nicely, and every branch is positioning itself to receive strong light as flowering progresses. Sometimes the smaller plants end up becoming the easiest ones to manage, and she’s developing exactly that kind of balanced architecture. ⸻ 🌿 Training & Plant Development Training has remained simple and gentle throughout the grow. Low Stress Training has helped open the canopy while preserving the plant’s natural structure. Combined with regular leaf repositioning, this has allowed light to reach developing side branches without introducing unnecessary stress. One thing visible this week is some damage on a few older leaves. This isn’t something I’m concerned about. Between the early setbacks, a little environmental stress from airflow, and perhaps my own learning moments while dialing everything in, a handful of leaves have certainly seen better days. The important part is what the plant is telling me now. The newest growth is emerging vibrant, healthy, and beautifully green, showing that the current conditions are exactly where they need to be. Rather than chasing cosmetic perfection on older leaves, I’m paying attention to the fresh growth—and that’s looking fantastic. Healthy new growth always tells the real story. ⸻ 💧 Nutrition & Irrigation Although this report still closes the vegetative chapter, the plant has already begun receiving the same flowering transition feed as the rest of the room. Current feeding: • Terra Grow — 1.9 ml/L • Terra Bloom — 1.9 ml/L • Pure Zym — 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L • Power Roots — 1 ml/L • Power Buds — 1 ml/L The transition has been smooth, with an EC around 1.83, pH maintained at 6.05. No signs of nutrient deficiencies are developing in the new growth, giving me confidence that the plant has recovered completely from her slower beginning. She’s now receiving exactly what the rest of the room is receiving—and she’s responding beautifully. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment Environmental conditions continue providing a stable ecosystem for every plant inside the tent. * Day temperature: 31.1°C * Night temperature: 25°C * Relative humidity: 72% * Solution temperature: 21.6°C * Root zone temperature: 21°C * CO₂: approximately 639 ppm Even with the warm summer temperatures, the healthy root environment, excellent airflow, and consistent irrigation continue allowing the plants to grow vigorously while transitioning naturally into bloom. The room continues doing exactly what it’s supposed to do. ⸻ 👀 Looking Ahead Next week marks the beginning of a completely new chapter. The stretch should become much more noticeable as Candy Rain fully commits to flowering, and I’m excited to see how her elegant structure begins filling with bud sites over the coming weeks. Being only slightly behind the rest of the room really isn’t a concern anymore. In fact, she seems determined to catch up one day at a time, and with every new set of leaves she’s reminding me that healthy plants don’t dwell on the past—they simply keep growing. I’m looking forward to watching those first flower clusters begin stacking along each branch. ⸻ 🙏 Final Thoughts Not every plant starts life under perfect circumstances. Sometimes the most rewarding grows are the ones that overcome early challenges and keep moving forward without looking back. Candy Rain may be the solo survivor of this folder, but she’s far from being “the leftover.” She’s becoming a beautiful example of resilience, proving that a slightly delayed start doesn’t define the final harvest. Every week she’s writing a better chapter than the last. A huge thank you to Zamnesia for making this incredible project possible, Plagron for providing such reliable nutrition, Future of Grow for delivering outstanding lighting, and to everyone following this 8×8 Adventure here on GrowDiaries. Your support, comments, and shared passion for growing make these weekly updates something I genuinely look forward to creating. Until next week… Growers love and happy growing! 🌱💚

Die Pflanze geht nach wie vor in einen echt enormen Stretch. Langsam wird der Platz echt eng. Eine sehr hoch wachsende Pflanze, welche ihre volle Energie in einen Haupttrieb steckt, welcher zusätzlich noch einige Seitentriebe ausbildet. Auch hier ist es eine spannend zu beobachtende Entwicklung. 💚

Ende Woche 2 Blüte. Alles schaut schön aus buds bilden sich und von den Milben nichts mehr zu sehen.

All in all went well but come home from a 12 hour shift last night to find the temp on 45° and rh was 55 so got signs of heat stress added another fan high up to hopefully get a much better air flow

She is definitely performing. I can smell her on approach. The weather does not look too promising for the next 72 hours…hoping for the best this post full moon rain.

🍬

This plant was RIP ed out of the ground and put inside looks bit fucked but shes smell so nice I ripped a bud off to smoke and boy is she strong

🤔🐛🍃🐊🌱

5000 ml jeden 3 Tag in der Neunten Woche pH-Wert: 6,2 EC-Wert: 1.4 mS/cm Temperatur: 30ºC Luftfeuchtigkeit: 50% Schädlingsbekämpfung: im Moment haben wir keine Anzeichen das es was zu bekämpfen gibt, sobald die ersten Anzeichen da sind werden wir handeln :) Düngemittel: Brenneseljauche self made hat einen EC wert von ca 1.4 Besonderheiten: Sie wurde nun in den Outdoor Bereich -Tag 60 Heute wieder Wasser mit etwas Jauche. Von den Farben her ist sie klasse aber ist leider irgendwie nicht das was wir uns Erhofft haben, Sieht eher aus wie so ne Roggen Pflanze 😓 wird auch warscheinlich nur so ein 10 Gramm sein. aber wir wolten es ausprobieren.

Greetings everyone, I hope everyone is doing well on this wonderful Wednesday! Ran into issues this week, discovered I added extra nutrients to my soil that I didn't need (N,P) and dropped the ph of the soil to below 5.5. I had seen minor deficiencies showing from nutrient lockout perhaps due to low ph so I watered with a good amount of plain de-chlorinated tap water at 7.5 to offset the low ph. It helped a lot! the plats perked back up and were looking much better and grew a bunch at week 4 start but now in the last few days 1 of the 5 is showing the start of some serious stress. Many of her tops have burn't leaf tips which looks very much like nutrient burn. likely excess Phosphorus. This week still working on upwards growth feeding at a higher ph probably 7.0 next watering and hoping for improvement. If not I will have to flush the one plant at least. I hope everyone has a great week! Any comments or feedback is always appreciated =D 08/19/2020 - Start of week, Journal edit + pics 08/20/2020 - Awoke to visible progression of burnt tips so regretfully flushed the one plant with 7.0 ph water until the water ran clear approx 10 gallons for 6 gallons of soil in 7 gallon bucket. She looks burnt and waterlogged but i think she will recover. 08/21/2020 - Flushed the other 3 plants as well All show signs of damage. =( 08/22/2020 - Plant health continues to deteriorate although new growth looks like it may be healthier. Time will tell... 08/24/2020 - Damage finally stopped progressing. New leaf growth is healthy, Cut off dead material growth stalled a bit but they look like they will be fine. 08/24/2020 - Put pheno #5 out on the balcony to flower might be too late to finish. It is an experiment. She looks beautiful. 08/24/2020 - Installed the SCROG net into the tent. tallest plant is 2" away from the screen.
