Good week overall, The plants are levelling out and getting extra green with the transplant, no more die back :D Still no word from Gaia Green so I think they just don't care after getting bought out. similar to GHE and scotts miracle grow big brands are taking up smaller independent companies to get every aspect of the market then cheapening the product slowly over time. I have topped them again and waiting for the new shoots to grow in, I have also removed the lower branches and put them into vials to clone out. Will see how they do and if I want to grow them outdoor this year or give em away. I will be looking for a new home for the 4th plant that survived in the smaller container. But it won't be ready for another few months till the weather improves for outdoors or anytime right now if I know a buddy wants a plant in my area. I also topped my peppers in hopes it will bush them out a lot and get a solid plant. Holy basil is also fine, I feel I am going to need to give it some more food in a bit they will be approaching nutrient depletion soon. The extras I put in the water this week are the same as any other, fulvic acid, potassium silicate, yucca extract, a bacteria pro bio soil product "NOT LABS" and PH adjusters. Trying out critic, ascorbic and malic acids powders as a alternate to phosphoric acid liquid. If it works its an option for PH down and one I can buy in bulk almost anywhere. 85% phosphoric is hard to source unless you got a grow shop close by. I was also reading that critic has a strong affinity for dissolving calcium and might work better on it vs phosphoric and dies out faster. but this needs more looking into before anything concrete is devised. O I also made some Brownie Cookies, they turned out well. Chewy on the inside and crunch on the outside. I infused them with 15.5G of flower and a quick butter bath only simmering for 30min, 7g CBG ZeroDue from SeedStockers + 7g Dnamed Kush CBD Auto from Dinafem + 1.5g Strawberry Cola Auto from Exotic Seeds. Strained out all the weed and used the butter in the cookies. I would make them again, all cookies got flaked salt as a garnish, They are very light and I can eat a few of them and still be ok, This is what I want, great with reducing inflammation and relaxing the body. If I want a more THC high I'll eat more of them or take a separate THC edible. Big shoutout to Medic Grow for sponsoring the lighting in my tent, They have provided me with 2x Mini Sun 2's in the 240w configuration, They use the v1 growing spectrum that is a all purpose seed to harvest spectrum so their is no hassle of switching it mid grow.

Day 36 1/13/25 I think she is taking to the location okay so far and after the first cut I did I’m not sure what I’m doing I’m just doing my own little mainline thing experimenting I guess I’m using APSU super soil and a little bit of build of soil 3.0 left from last grow and it’s a 7 gal pot als 1/14 day 37 Did second and final topping going allow about two weeks to bounce back and allow more growth and LST then flower

Tamara her week 11 is full with looking in many Little Parts of Tamara. Every „corner“ I have my eyes on I am more and more impressed of her Beautyness… really. I have never thought about that, that a plant can take me so much. I am looking for week 12 what she will do with me ^^. I am sure, I will love the next week.

Hallo zusammen 🤙. Sie riecht fantastisch. Ich lasse sie noch bis Samstag stehen und dann kommt sie ab. Gebe diese Woche nur noch Wasser.

4 out of 4 and all of them are very healthy and strong babys so i am waiting for a good yield lets see whats fast veraion of this strain can offer to me. Many thanx for the seeds to the one of the beat companies in thia business. So happy 420.

Transplanted all to 15 gallon pots. All looking good started seeing new growth very quickly. They seem like very happy plants. Next week the new tent comes in and the new lights

Hi guys welcome back to peaky gardens my dutch girls are doing well .. one above all had the dominance in the room growing exponentially the sisters are already starting with flowering and this thing worries me that she is still growing in vegetation 🧐

Dutch Passion Seeds Critical Orange Punch Auto Day 31 from Germination 10th March 2020 She's really put on some leaf and branch growth over this past week and is still not quite at the flowering stage yet. But I feel she will be throwing out pistils and starting to stretch by next weeks update, well I hope so anyway 😄 Still giving her light supplemental feeds of Professors Nutrients Grow fast and Seaweed solution, both of which seem to be keeping her healthy and vigorous. Yesterday and Today I have had her out of the tent and out under the natural sunshine and Fresh air. I will continue to do it each day as long as the weather stays fine as I think the use of LEDs and Sunshine each day certainly coudn't hurt . Checked soil temp and Ph this morning it was 22c and 6.5 so everythings on point and no issues i can see Thats about it for the C.O.P Auto update for this week Thanks for stopping by 👍

Ec 1.5 ph 5.8 lampada 30/40cm

Day 57 - Starting week 9 today and everything is definitely looking and smelling great. Gave her the first feeding of the week today and will start monitoring the trichs here soon but she’s definitely still got some time left. Day 58 - All is looking good and nothing big to update but a few pictures to keep track of the buds fattening. Day 59 - Man she’s getting fat! Measure one bids width and it’s close to 3.5” wide and she’s still got a couple weeks still to go! Gave her a good drink of pH’d water today. Day 61 - Gave the girl the final feeding of the week today and she’s doing nothing but get fat. Did a quick check of the runoff pH and it’s coming out just as it’s going in, 6.6. Can not wait for this girl to finish. Day 63 - Ending week 9 and this thing is a beast, at least for me. She’s is fat and happy and just counting down till chop time but pistils are still white and she’s still fattening up so thinking another 2 weeks or so.

Big defoliation to end week 2 nicely 👌 Plants have continued to stretch hopefully not too much more! All phenos are growing impressively big shout out to @fast_buds

She continues to be the easiest grow I've had to date. PH spends the week in the 5.8-6.3 range, where I bring it down once or twice per week, aiming for about 5.5-5.9, then it sails slowly northwards again. Buds are an impressive size already. Smell has increased markedly. Foliage continues to be dense, and a lush dark green, with a few small spots on the lower leaves. I suspect she would have benefitted more than most plants from some training. Took a few leaves this week, to expose lower buds.

Not much going on yet. Added some 3d printed supports to make sure they don't start flopping over. Not sure if it's the strain, or my idiocy, but these bastards are soooo leggy. Grr. Watering daily to 15% runoff with MegaCrop 2 part in RO at 0.6EC and 5.6pH. Found Mega Crop gives very stable pH on the right range without any pH up or down needed. Took one day off (3/18) watering to water with Silica Boost at 6ml/gal concentration pHed to 5.4. PPFD 300 at canopy for DLI of 20. PPFD was about 20 for first week while I was prepping and sanitizing the grow room, which might explain the leggyness. If they don't look better after topping, I might pull them and try a different strain. 3/20 - this grow is inspired by the techniques of Bruce Bugbee (PPFD, nutrition, EC monitoring, substrate, environment, etc) and the concept of VPD control, both of which served me very well in the past. The grow room has dual PID controls in my PLC regulating the temperature and humidity to lock in the VPD based on plant age. In later veg and flower, I had CO2 injection on a PID, but that ultimately failed because I couldn't get the humidity down as it got huge. Had too many vent cycles. This year, hope to source or kludge an in-line dehumidifier so I can keep the sealed chamber where it needs to be without wasting CO2. 3/22 no more vertical growth, thank god, leaves and roots are slowly catching up. Patience. EC to 0.7

The pineapple strain has been doing very good this whole grow she is only really on day 20 right now she popped up late compared to the other seeds. I have put her into a bigger container to help her grow bigger and start the LST training so I can get to bending .. The nutes are being increased with the pot size being larger now and she has loved it all ready can't wait to see next week's growth ..cheers canna family

Rolling into week 7. Time to dial down the nutes and start my UVB regiment. I use Reptisun 10.0 bulbs due to LED UV's giving far less than optimal performance. Reptisun 5.0 bulbs work 2. I only run them from week 7 to flush and for only 3 hours a day within the current light cycle. Update day 45: After doing a trichome check, it finished EARLY!! Time to do a quick flush then harvest. I was going to add the nutes to the fresh water today 😂😂

L unica che mi piace sto giro sono la gorilla e la runtz....le piramidi non piacciono...

First Durban poison seed did not germinate just put a new one in today. Both Apple strudel strains are looking strong. One of them has a slight spot on it could be from spraying neem oil and hitting it with the light Sweet skunk is growing nicely And the older of the 2 mystery auto strains from fast buds will be transplanted soon Started LST 5/15

Super Silver Haze (Zamnesia Seeds) — Flower Week 7 (Recovery) Grower: Dog Doctor Strain: Super Silver Haze Breeder: Zamnesia Seeds Stage: Flower — Week 7 (recovery after localized bud rot) Pots/Medium: 11 L fabric pots — living super soil with Aptus pellets and Plagron support Watering: Hand watering; currently water only (see science below) Lights: F.O.G. Black Series 600W + ThinkGrow ICL-300 (inner canopy) + Lumatek Zeus Compact Pro 465W Control & Monitoring: TrolMaster Hydro-X/Tent-X + WCS substrate sensors Air exchange: Dual 6” filtered exhausts + filtered intake; oscillating fans moving canopy air Current environment (example): day ~29–31 °C, night ~24–26 °C, RH mid 50s–60s, CO₂ ~700 ppm ⸻ Quick recap — seed to the present moment • Germination & early veg: 3/3 germinated via Cannakan; strong, even starts. • Transplant: Into 11 L fabric pots with a super soil base inoculated with Aptus Mycor/Micro mixes and buffered for pH stability. • Veg: Compact, steady growth; conservative feeding with Aptus starter lineup. • Early flower: Fast flower transition, pistils and bud sites stacking quickly. Plagron trio (Power Buds, Sugar Royal, Green Sensation) + Aptus boosters used to enhance bloom development. • Bud rot event: Localized Botrytis found inside one cola; removed quickly and thoroughly. Loss minimal. Immediate steps taken (see below). • Recovery week (this report): Plants responding strongly — dense colas, heavy frosting, explosive aroma. We moved temporarily to water-only feed to stabilize the root zone and let the soil biology drive nutrition. ⸻ What happened and how we dealt with it 1. Detection: Small dark spot discovered deep inside a dense cola. Because rot often starts inside dense clusters, early detection is key. 2. Immediate action: Removed the affected flowers and any suspicious material. Cut generously around infected tissue to avoid leaving spores. Placed waste in sealed bags and removed from the growroom. 3. Sanitation: Cleaned tools, wiped surfaces, checked fans and filters for dust pockets, and increased canopy airflow. 4. Environment adjustments: Increased air movement across and through the canopy; checked extraction; planned AC installation to lower day temps and stabilize RH. 5. Observation & patience: Kept strict daily inspections for any new spots; let plants recover without additional heavy nutrient pushes. Result: the loss was minimal, the rest of the canopy stayed healthy, and the plants rebounded quickly. Dense, frosty colas and an incredibly strong smell are the signs they are back on track. ⸻ Why “water only” right now — the science, explained simply We moved to water-only feeds for a short, strategic period. That decision is conservative and backed by three practical goals: 1. Reduce salt and nutrient spikes: After stress and after tissue removal, roots can be sensitive. Water-only flushes prevent sudden EC spikes that can further stress roots. Salt buildup can inhibit water uptake (osmotic stress); clean water restores osmotic balance. 2. Let the soil biology work: You’re growing in a living super soil with Aptus pellets and biological inoculants. Microbes mineralize nutrients slowly and steadily. When plants are stressed, microbial mineralization becomes more important than high-concentration liquid feeds. Water-only gives beneficial microbes a stable environment to supply what the plant needs. 3. Avoid overstimulating lush growth: At late flower, you want carbohydrate partitioning to favor flower filling and resin production, not new vegetative pushes. Limiting NPK pulses prevents a late vegetative response and encourages the plant to allocate sugars to trichome and calyx growth. Practical note: “Water only” does not mean nutrient-starvation. Your living soil still releases NPK and trace elements. Monitor substrate EC (WCS) and plant appearance; if deficiency signs persist for more than a week, reintroduce a light, balanced feed. ⸻ The gear doing the heavy lifting — why the ICL-300 inner canopy lights matter • ThinkGrow ICL-300 (inner canopy lights): These deliver targeted, diffuse light deeper into the canopy. For dense sativas or hybrids that set flowers lower on the plant, inner-canopy LEDs reduce shading and encourage even bud set on lower nodes. They also reduce the need to strip leaves to reach light—so you can preserve biology and microclimate. • F.O.G. Black Series & Lumatek: Provide high PPFD to the top canopy for strong photosynthesis and sugar production. The combination of powerful top light + targeted inner lights = even canopy carbon distribution and more uniformly fat colas. • TrolMaster + WCS: Real-time data on substrate moisture and EC lets you water by need (you’re already using ~19–25% dryness triggers), which prevents both saturation pockets that encourage rot and drought that stresses plants. • Airflow & filtration: Dual exhausts and oscillating fans keep air moving; carbon filters keep air clean. This is essential to lower local humidity around flowers and prevent new rot pockets. All gear together creates a system: light for sugar, airflow for dryness, monitoring for precision, and soil biology for nutrition. ⸻ Observations this week • Colas: Thickening, dense, frosty. Trichome production visible even with the naked eye. • Aroma: Extremely potent — strong typical Super Silver Haze profile developing (citrus/citrus-haze + spicy/earthy back-notes), likely driven by terpene expression and warm room temps. • Leaves: Minor spotting in places earlier; after CalMag adjustments and water-only period, new growth is healthy and vibrant. • Root zone: Very active — roots visible through fabric, good white root color where checked. ⸻ Risks to watch and mitigation steps (practical, daily checklist) • Risk: Secondary rot pockets — Mitigation: daily inspection, move a small headlamp into canopy to view internals, keep oscillating fans moving air between bud layers. • Risk: High night humidity with cooler temps — Mitigation: install AC / run dehumidifier at night, maintain extraction during lights-off. • Risk: Support failure from heavy colas — Mitigation: pre-position soft ties / netting to support colas now before they get heavy. • Risk: Late-flower nutrient imbalance — Mitigation: watch leaf tips/edges for burn or deficiency. If signs appear, use small, dilute corrective feeds rather than heavy dosages. ⸻ What to expect in the next 1–3 weeks • Short term (next 7 days): Continued fattening of calyxes, sustained trichome increase, aroma intensifies. Plants will drink more as flowers bulk. Keep water-only until the canopy is stable and substrate EC is within your target range. • Mid term (weeks 2–3 from now): Major bulk phase — colas will gain weight and density. Trichomes will move from clear → cloudy (start of potency peak). Expect more resin and heavier terpene bouquet. • Near harvest planning: Start planning drying/curing space and harvest timeline once trichome clouding reaches your target (we’ll plan this together when the time approaches). Also plan to stagger harvests if colas mature at different rates. ⸻ Short educational sidebar — why trichomes explode now (brief) Late flower is all about sugar allocation and secondary metabolism. With high light, steady CO₂, and stable root nutrition, plants convert energy into: • Calyx growth (mass) — the physical body of the bud • Trichome production (resin glands) — metabolically expensive, but essential for protection and reproduction; trichomes store terpenes and cannabinoids which act as plant defense and pollinator signals in nature The combination of your lighting, living soil biology, and current conservative feeding strategy drives both mass and resin production. ⸻ Final practical tips for the diary entry • Post a short video walk-through of the canopy with commentary pointing to the saved areas vs. new growth — that tells the recovery story visually. • Photograph a closeup of a supported, heavy cola to show density and resin. • Note the date of the rot removal and actions taken in the GrowDiaries log — that makes the journal useful for other growers and for troubleshooting later runs. • Keep a small “harvest box” ready: sanitized scissors, nets, gloves, labeled trays — you’ll want them when the time comes. ⸻ Gratitude and perspective we acted fast, used sound horticultural judgment, and let biology and environment do their work. That combination saved the run. Super Silver Haze is responding like a champion — dense, frosty, and unapologetically aromatic.
