Day 7 i I transplanted the seedlings in jiffy’s to the DWC basket water level was “just” touching the bottom of the basket which meant there was 1mm- 2mm air gap between the water level and the jiffy’s. The high pressured air in the water to spit when air was released at the top which kept the bottom of the jiffy moist which had minimal roots showing to the exterior of it. Day 7-13 I originally had 7.5 litres of water that was to the bottom of the basket. I replaced the water on the 13th which meant the water was changed after 6 days at such an early stage I will regularly change the water in the buckets. You can change every 7-14days but I am taking no chances. I refilled and added nutrients on Day 13 which was yesterday. And the plants are doing really well and are a nice VEG green colour. Hard to tell on the pictures with the light colour but you can see their progress. When I replaced the water this week I put 6.5L of water in each bucket With nutrients PH’d as close to 5.8 as possible. Some varied from 5.72 - 5.9. I have noted these on each bucket so that I can check if one does better than the others or shows deformities or stress I can amend it to match the others but hopefully not in such a close proximity of 5.8ph with an EC of 700+- The roots are now showing in every pot with the longest being some 6inches. The new Wakyme grow light is top notch so far with VEG button on only. Anyone contemplating buying one it cost me £99.00 from amazon and so far is performing just how I would like. Humidity has been taken care of with a cold air intake fan which is pulled from another area of the building of a cooler environment. Temperatures are spot on where I want them but I do allow a 2degree +- allowance but it does change back to its original temperature quickly enough. 5 more speed bud germinated and 2peyote critical feminised photoperiod germinated. Crystal candy XL auto ordered x10 Gorilla glue, Pineapple Express and Cali Kush waiting in the wings. I have these already If I can be anymore help to anyone let me know. Your diaries are helping me and hopefully I can provide the same to you

420 Fastbuds FBT2303 Week 6 This week has been exciting for sure. Both have definitely transitioned into flower now, showing flower sites everywhere. They both are growing very similar as far as height,look, and leaf structure goes.Had some calmag issues but I think we got that under control by upping the feeding to 1tsp per gal. Over all I'd say Happy Growing.

🌱 Lemon Cherry Gelato — Week 9 From Seed (Week 5 Flower) We move forward with our Lemon Cherry Gelato, now entering what we call Week 5 of flower (Week 9 from seed, 12/12 from start). This week brings something special — not one, but two expressions of the same genetic, grown side by side, each telling a slightly different story. The first Lemon Cherry Gelato remains untouched. No defoliation. Just observation, light guidance, and studio time. She stands full, natural, and honestly… stunning. The second Lemon Cherry Gelato took a different path — what started as a light clean-up turned into something closer to an “army-style haircut.” A full defoliation to open space, improve airflow, and allow light to penetrate deeper into the canopy. Two plants. Same genetics. Two approaches. Same goal — let them express. --- ### 🌿 How We Got Here This is a 12/12 from seed run, meaning these autoflower plants never experienced a traditional vegetative phase. From the start, they grew with the signal that time is limited — and that shows in their structure. Instead of wide, heavily branched vegetative growth, they focused early on vertical development and flower initiation. Now, in Week 5, we see the result: dense bud sites forming across a compact but highly productive structure. --- ### ✂️ Why We Defoliate (And Why We Didn’t — Yet) The room is getting full. Really full. The decision to defoliate the second plant came from necessity: • Improve airflow • Reduce humidity pockets • Increase light penetration • Redirect energy toward flower sites On the first plant, we chose patience. Sometimes doing nothing is also a decision. Next week, she may follow the same path — but for now, she shows us what happens when we simply let her be. --- ### 🌸 About Those White Hairs (Pistils) What you’re seeing across all those bud shots — those bright white hairs — are pistils. They are part of the female reproductive system of the plant. Their natural purpose is to catch pollen. But in our case, there is no pollination. So what happens? The plant continues producing more and more pistils, trying to fulfill that biological mission. At the same time, it increases resin production as a protective mechanism. This is exactly what we want. More pistils → more potential bud sites → more resin → better final expression. --- ### Feeding Strategy (Why This Mix Works) We keep the nutrition consistent and intentional: • Terra Bloom → Base nutrients for flowering • Green Sensation → PK booster + metabolic support • Power Buds → Encourages flower initiation and structure • Sugar Royal → Supports terpene and sugar production • Pure Zym → Enzyme activity, root zone health • CalMag → Stability under LED conditions Nothing excessive. Nothing random. Just a balanced system supporting what the plant is already trying to do. --- ### 🌡️ Environment & Plant Feedback Room conditions: • Temperature: ~28°C • Humidity: ~65% • CO₂: ~1000 ppm On paper, some might question these numbers. But we don’t grow on paper — we grow by reading the plant. We follow leaf behavior, transpiration, and overall response (leaf VPD in practice, not just charts). The plants are drinking ~1.5L per day, standing around 1.2m tall, and showing strong metabolic activity. That tells us everything we need to know. --- ### 🍃 Small Imperfections We noticed minor leaf burn from under-canopy LED exposure. Nothing serious — and most of it was naturally removed during defoliation on the second plant. A reminder: Not everything needs correction. Some things just need understanding. --- ### 🎭 Meet Mr. Baggy This week also marks the official arrival of Mr. Baggy. You may have seen him around already… but now he joins the journey properly. Part observer, part assistant, part silent chaos. Welcome to the crew. --- ### 🔮 What to Expect Next Week • Continued bud stacking • Increased density and structure • Possible defoliation of the first plant • Early signs of terpene development becoming more noticeable We are entering the phase where everything starts to connect. --- ### 🤝 Gratitude To everyone who passes by — The long-time supporters, the new ones, the curious minds, the silent observers. To the platform. To the partners. To those who love it and those who question it. All of you are part of this.

Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

Ab den 13:11 ab zum trocknen. Da freue ich mich

All 3 plants cut and just Ozz remaining to dry and trim. Terrible outcome for #4 as I had to throw more than half of the plant away due to bud rots. I’m still really confused about what happened: the day before harvest I noticed and removed 3 bud rots from the plant - so far so good. All remaining buds were fine, but when trimming I realised every single top was maroon-ish at the base and I could clearly see a start of mold when opening some of them. Although I could clearly confirm what it was with a 30x lens, the white spots were extremely scarce and small (less than 1x1mm each time). It doesn’t seem really coherent with how it should have spread. Nonetheless, I didn’t take risk and threw away any bud where I could identify white mold with the lens, and put aside the ones where I had a doubt in pop corns (the “7g maybe”, cf below) to track the evolution. A quick summary of the harvest so far, will edit when I have some time: - Dorel: 250g wet, 37g dry / 17g trim (54g total) - #4: 450g wet, 33g dry / 7g maybe / 29g trim (62-69g total) + a lot thrown away due to bud rots - Ozz: only weighted the two bigger canopie I cut, 162g+142g≈300g wet. It represents around half of the whole plant (probably less, but stem included), so around 5-600g wet total.

Update day 14 flowering: The Gelato jas been no problem so far in flowering. She is building some nice sized colas along her lanky stems. I dont think she is going to stack up lime the others will but should give some decent sized nugs at the end i hope. Node spacing is a it long but copable. I will have to keep her in a good position to fill out the lowers for final yield i think. Lets see what rhe 32°c hearwaves does with her !!

All good!!!❤️

Well we finally got around to putting a gate on the hemp garden and today we are transplanting one of the ladies in the 1 gallon smart pots to a 5 gallon smart pot. For this process we placed about 3 inches of soil in the 5 gallon smart pot, then placed the 1 gallon smart pot with plant still inside on top of the soil. The next step was to start placing soil around the 1 gallon pot, so that it made sort of a mold. Once we got the soil where we wanted it, we removed the Queen Dream cultivar from the 1 gallon smart pot and placed it in the mold that was made in the soil. Finished up by adding some more soil and then watered the newly transplanted lady. No nutrients added this week.

Info: Unfortunately, I had to find out that my account is used for fake pages in social media. I am only active here on growdiaries. I am not on facebook instagram twitter etc All accounts except this one are fake. Flowering day 65 since time change to 12/12 h. Hey guys :-) We arrived in the last days before the harvest 😊. The buds have swollen again the last few days. The trichomes are 90% milky and 10% amber 👍. This week it was poured twice with 1.2 l each time (for nutrients, see table above). As always, it is put in the darkroom for 48 hours before it is harvested. There is still a harvest update and a final update after fermentation 👍. Until then, I wish you all a lot of fun with the update and stay healthy 🙏🏻 You can buy this Nutrients at : https://greenbuzzliquids.com/en/shop/ With the discount code: Made_in_Germany you get a discount of 15% on all products from an order value of 100 euros.

I did her first water change on day 10 upped the nutrient dose and increased the reservior to 12 gallons. Gave her the first dose of armor si and humic acid. I topped her on day 12 to start 4 main branches. Will most likely top again and start training in about a week depending on how she wants to grow. The goal is a maximum of 5 weeks veg if they cooperate. Of the 6 strains she is a little faster than the rest so far. They are under 240w qb and a galaxyhydro pulling about 140w for now. Will be adding more qb when I spread the buckets out.

The growth of this plants is very structurally sound, impressive density, and exceptionally loud. My carbon filter must be spent. The exhaust from my grow room is 8/10 on the “stinky scale”
