What a journey this has been. This girl weighs(dry) 263grams plus 23 grams(untrimmed lower nugs) could have pulled out 350g if let her veg a bit longer. The taste is like sweet candy and soda a hint of citrus. The effects are as follows, creative, giggles and energetic but once its nearly gone out. You will feel really sleepy and when you wake up you will feel really hungry. Anyways, thank you guys who have been following my journey. Next grow will be seeds from Sunkentreasure seeds

The outdoor ladies are enjoying the nice weather and doing very well. Divine Rapier is also beginning to bloom. Unfortunately, it's supposed to rain a lot next week. We're hoping for the best!

Week 4 Flower – Supercrop Week: Taming the Moon-Shooter Both Sundae Driver girls are thriving, stacking bud sites and frosting up fast. Pheno #2 tried to aim for the moon, so this week I performed a supercrop to keep the canopy even and unlock more lateral sites. She bounced back within days and is already curving up; new sites are catching light beautifully. I also did a light, targeted defoliation to open airflow, nothing heavy. Feed & Mix (this week) Testing a hybrid Aptus + Plagron approach at low solution EC to complement the rich, pre-amended soil. • Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml/L • Plagron Green Sensation – 1 ml/L • Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml/L • Aptus CalMag Boost – light dose, just to keep LED demand covered Why low feed? The living/“easy” soil we built is still hot and active (medium EC ~2.96 mS/cm), so I’m keeping the solution EC ~0.4–0.5 mS/cm with pH ~6.1. That lets the soil do most of the work while I steer with gentle inputs and avoid salt stacking or tip burn. ⸻ Deep Dive: Supercropping (What, Why, When, How) What it is Supercropping is a high-control, high-reward training move: you soften (pinch) the inner stem tissues and bend the stem over without tearing the skin. The plant heals with a strong “knuckle,” redistributes hormones, and pushes more energy to side shoots. Result: flatter canopy, better light use, more productive sites. Why do it (Week 4 Flower)? • Pheno #2 outpaced the canopy and was nearing the lights • Even canopy = more uniform PPFD and bud development • Bending redirects auxins to lower sites → more usable bud sites • A late stretch check without heavy cutting Best timing • Ideal: late veg through early flower stretch (Weeks 2–4 of flower) while stems are still pliable. • Later than Week 4: be more cautious—stems lignify and snap easier. Step-by-step 1. Hydrate first: Slightly hydrated plants bend better than very dry ones. 2. Choose the internode you want to lower (usually the tall outlier). 3. Pinch and roll the stem gently between thumb and forefinger for 5–10 seconds to soften the pith. 4. Bend to ~45–90° toward an open space in the canopy. 5. Support: If the skin shows micro-cracks, wrap loosely with plant tape; add a soft tie or stake to hold position. 6. Aftercare: Keep airflow up, avoid heavy feeding changes for 24–48h, and don’t stack stress (no major pruning at the same time). What to expect after • Leaves may droop for a few hours; prayer and curve-up typically return within 24–72 hours. • A hardened knuckle forms in 3–7 days, strengthening the stem. • Side sites along the bent branch accelerate; top re-orients upward. • Usually less foxtailing later because tops are kept at ideal distance from the light. Risks & how to avoid them • Snap/tear: Don’t bend dry or cold stems; soften first and bend slowly. • Infection: If skin splits, tape loosely and keep humidity in check. • Over-stressing: Avoid combining with heavy defol or big feed changes on the same day. ⸻ Canopy & Care Notes • Minor defoliation only this week—just a few broad fans that shaded key sites. I prefer leaf tucking elsewhere to preserve photosynthetic “engines.” • Aroma is coming on; both phenos are stacking clean white pistils with visible trichome build on sugar leaves. • I took the girls outside the tent for a careful studio shoot—this might be the last time. Intentional supercropping is great; accidental branch breaks during handling are not. ⸻ Why this recipe (and why it’s gentle) • Power Buds helps flower initiation/transition behave predictably. • Green Sensation brings a compact PK + micro package and carbs; paired at low EC to avoid over-layering with the soil’s nutrients. • Sugar Royal supports metabolism and aroma precursors. • Regulator + CalMag keep cell walls strong, transpiration steady, and LEDs fed. • With substrate EC ~2.96, I’m letting biology and amendments supply most macros; the solution (~0.4–0.5 EC, pH ~6.1) is a steering wheel, not the engine. ⸻ What’s Happening Now • Stretch is nearly done; supercrop leveled the canopy without stalling growth. • Bud sites multiplying and beginning early stacking. • Trichomes appearing across sugar leaves; calyx build just starting. What to Expect Next (Week 5+) • Expect: • Stretch to taper off; energy shifts into stacking and calyx swell • Noticeably more trichomes; first hints of terp profile intensifying • The supercropped knuckle to fully harden; consider stakes or light trellis to support future weight • Don’t expect (yet): • Final density or full resin push—that’s more a Weeks 6–8 game • Heavy leaf stripping; I’ll keep it light to protect photosynthesis • Keep an eye on: • Humidity management as flowers bulk—tighten RH stepwise to mid-50s to reduce microclimate risk • Mg/K demand under strong LEDs (watch for interveinal fade or edge crisping) • Wound sites from supercrop—good airflow, no standing moisture ⸻ Connection & Monitoring I’ve logged a set of videos this week: TrolMaster data screens plus hands-on canopy time. Daily check-ins are still the best way to catch tiny changes before they become big ones—and it keeps the grower-plant connection strong. ⸻ Closing Week 4 is the hinge between stretch and stack. One deliberate supercrop turned a moon-shot into a level, efficient canopy, opening light to more sites without slowing momentum. With a living soil doing the heavy lifting and a gentle, targeted feed, both Sundae Drivers are on track for a clean, aromatic finish.

7/19/2021 - Fed her with a mix of veg + bloom + worm castings + insect frass. We're 'bout to flip her. Unsure of the rate of application, going with feel. - Irrigated with a mix of water, coconut water, and unsulfured black strap molasses. - Decreasing the light timer by an hour each day to gently bring her into the flowering stage. - Defoliated again, she gets bushy fast. 7/24/2021 - Been defoliating this one every other day, she get's bushy reaaally fuckin' fast. - Lights finally reach 12/12 tonight. 7/25/2021 - First day of 12/12, gave her ANOTHER trim loll

Seed to harvest in only 61 days! My fastest auto yet 😱 Grape Walker Kush x Ice N Baked freebie This thing took off and blasted past the other two I have going. It grew tall really fast! I can see why it’s a freebie because it’s super tall and probably not the biggest yield but the smell is amazing! I was hoping for grape and I definitely got it! It smells like Grape Gelato lots of grape and a sweet dessert profile. Had a busy last few weeks and was hoping to post more updates. Harvested in a rush but it’s been drying for 5 days now. Will update with yield and post dry pics then later do a smoke report. Overall really easy grow just had to tame it a bit. Never really ran into issues with how quick it was. Sad I only have 1 seed left would love some more! Update: Ended up with 6.5oz and definitely happy! It’s very much grape, ice cream, gelato, dessert, cake flavor. I hope I can get more because I only have 1 seed left. Might try to reverse it but not sure if worth the risk. Everyone that tried it loved it! It’s a chill indica not super sedative but if sleepy enough will knock you out. Overall all good notes on this one. No dry mouth, eyes or munchies. Just a very well rounded indica. Nice hard dense buds. Just ordered a press and plan to make some flower rosin. Trim I’m not sure if enough worth washing. 5 gallon, Coco/Perlite, 20/4, Mega Crop part 1, OAC Calmag, Recharge.

Welcome to week 12 and finally the last week of my grow diary. As predicted, the weather has taken a turn for the worse, so I've decided to harvest. If the weather had been better, I would have given it another 1.5 to 2 weeks, but unfortunately, there's nothing we can do about that. The outdoor season has therefore come to an early end. It would be great to live in a place where it works all year round without any problems. A brief summary of Sour Jealousy: This strain is simply fantastic. Super easy to grow. Apart from a minor incident with mildew, I had no problems. The citrusy, creamy terpenes are right up my alley, and I hope the effect is too. In the end, the plant grew bigger than I had imagined, but I was able to see from other diaries how the plant would develop. Chubbs Sour Jealousy was even bigger. This strain will definitely end up in my indoor tent again so I can get the max potential out of it. See you next week for the conclusion of the diary!

9/3 Day 50 of the grow I cannot complain at all,reduced the nuet list to what they are getting from here out 9/5 Everybody always takes pics of their plants at their best thought it might help to see otherwise, well here they are at their worst. Dried out intentionally as part of last stage of flower, like to get them conditioned for drying. Five minutes later all happy again after the water. Fed Bio-Grow/Bio-Bloom/Karo syrup as a boost to bio 9/7 Re-adding Big Bloom (Fox Farms) to nuet mix, plants seem to be missing it and I agree. Once a week at 3 tps/gal 9/8 Fed each .75 gal full nuets Moved Becky and Ceila towards edges to lower light to them. Seem very sensitive to it but the other two are just soaking it up so moving them into the center. Pics later at lights out. Greatly preferring the dark leaf pheno (Anna and Deb) over the light leaf (Becky and Ceila), Have two of each and the first grow was also dark leaf. Plants are more compact, drink a little less, easier to maintain, and I think will end up producing at least as much as the larger sativa leaning plants. Some defoliation on all Changing nuet list add Fox Farm Happy Frog Cavern Culture 1-12-0 for the P think thats the nuet hole, three tablespoons top dressed one time application... for now. See how it goes

Started flush on plant #3. Harvested plant #2 on day 91. Trichomes were all cloudy. Plant #1 is going strong and fattening up. She’s a thirsty one too, watering every other day.

I have to say, overall out of all 5 purple Lemonade seeds I’m not very happy with the results so far considering they was a little more pricey & the fact that I know how good these plants can turn out! Not sure if I just got some bad genetics or what’s up but pretty bummed about this run so far😅😅 hopefully things will start to look up! Thanks for following & happy growing friends!✌️🏼🌱 Day 24 - Decided to pull the smallest purple lemonade that wasn’t doing anything so I can go ahead and get something else going in it’s place! Watered the other ladies today. Day 25 - Ladies are still stretching like crazy!

Fantastic classic strain that I'll be growing this again, I've grown her 2 times in the past, love to see those Heavy indica leaves, gorgeous plant, didn't really stretched too much if you compare with the rest of the plants of this season, very discreet plant to grow outdoors, heavy producer that it's great to train and make a relatively short bush full of fat colas everywhere!

Day 43. Light is on max output, heat enormous and they RUN !!!! thought intensity will stop them a bit , but i think i do only worse ... We have +30 heatwave in UK, i live in attic , so for 4 more days everything will be out of control. Watered today. 6.3 phed water. I love simple and affordable Mars Hydro products, if you can cope with heat TSL2000 can do magic in your tent ! Will update after heat wave us over. Should be in 4 days back to +20 ;))) Day 45. They GROW !!!! Distance is insanly small, but i have 30 cm of space left, wont move light for a week, then i will try to have 20 cm at least again. Planing last top up, need two more waterings before it, so it should be on last day of this or first of next week. Thinking to take down all LST at that time, need pots to breath better, too thin fabric, they dont keep form. Day 47. Drink every two days !!! 4 liters goes to nothing !!! Huge, still streching, tops almost rubbing TS2000, heat 30 inside, humidity 65-68 ..... will need heavy clearing again !!! Most stacked Cookie i ever grew, fills in very nice !!! Happy Growing !!!!

11/4 130am Lights up to 77 watts 4.3 grams Maxi-Grow powder this week. Using mix from last week. Will probably switch to Bloom by Wed. 11/5 12am Canopy Creations LST things are great resistance training builds huge branches!!! They are amazing. 10am growing fast and big after today’s watering!!! Garlic muffin and fatso have the thickest branches that I’ve ever seen the side branches are thicker than what I got when I was growing in bigger containers so these nutrients and the soil and this light wattage seems to be a good formula I have to save this and work on it And stressing with the Canopy Creations has doubled the diameter of the branches that I have been stressing. Just great results. 11/6 Galic is the strongest so far her branches are THICK, a perfect 4 cola grow. Each of the 4 branches are as thick as the main stem on my first few tries at this. 12am They were all dry gave water probably last week using Grow switching to Bloom nutrients. Extremely strong plants from Seedsman!!!! When I finally got them going I found using Maxi-Grow & Rapid Start made a huge difference!!! Only Rapid Start for the first week. 11/7 1am GM & CA are huge now!! lights up 89W as the leaves fold up a little for the heat I will raise them an inch or so. 1pm did water today. They are starting to flower 11/8 12:30am Switched to Bloom nutrients yesterday after the last feeding with Grow they all went to sleep right away after that and are waking up now with flowers forming. I will use 4grams Bloom, 0.4 Purpinator, 0.5 Rapid Start, 0.4 Silica, 0.4 Cal/Mag. Silica causes fluctuations in pH. 2am Galic is a MONSTER, and Seedsman is out of them. Fatso is next for size. I can not believe how huge the branches are this technique of 4 colas in a small 1 gallon container. These plants will be perfect for this 9am LST crazy day!!! I have never been able to train the small set of first branches that come off the first node on plants before until seedsmen Faso and garlic🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍 11/9 1am flowering I might have to split them up into 2 tents they are all getting bigger than I thought they could, this is just great! after 20 fails I think im getting this small grow style worked out. 1:30pm moved the RSQ's into tent 3. Tent 2 not big enough but I'll make it work. Once I harvest the plants from the 🎃 Halloween All the Darkness grow it will be easier. Galic & Fatso by Seedman are HUGE very thick branches, thick side branches responds to training extremely well. Strongest F1's!

this little shogun that could has stretched to the max! She is actually a little big bush now. Too bad this season was not as ideal as it could have been. She has started to flower 7 to 8 weeks to go.

Ladys grow fast and tall, doing a lot of defoliation.. lets hope this small tent will manage the flower stretch 😜 very easy to grow plants.
