Everything all still going well was pretty worried about the LST incase made mess of it was freaking out incase I put plant under to much stress

Buds seriously starting to fatten up, put out some serious trichomes and smell this week. Smell has intensified quite alot since last week soon as you open the tent the smell smacks you in the face. More trichomes by the day looking like a serious smoke. Upped the EC to 2 for this week to try and get a much out of these as possible. I won't be going any higher than a 2 EC so I don't fry my plants. Some orange hairs starting to appear on both the cereal milk and wedding cake.

Die Versorgung mittels des Autopots funktioniert hervorragend. Ich bin echt noch immer erstaunt, wie dieses System 2 Pflanzen so versorgen kann, dass aus diesen beiden 11 Liter Töpfen ( mit Drainage!) solche " Bäume " entstehen können. Die Pistillen werden deutlicher und so langsam kann es losgehen. Eine Pflanze zeigt leicht lila Stämme, was ich allerdings eher auf die kühlen Nächte schieben würde, welche die Aufnahme von Phosphor stark behindern. Wir haben Nachts teilweise unter 14 Grad und Tagsüber mal knapp über 20, mal an der 30 Grad Marke . Aber das gehört einfach mit dazu. Ich mache mir nur etwas Sorgen, dass die Pflanzen zu groß werden und durch Sturm abknicken. Deshalb habe ich vorsorglich die Versorgung mit Silizium verdoppelt. Den allgemeinen Dünger habe ich auf einen EC von 1,0 reduziert, weil die Pflanzen bei dem Wetter eh nicht so viel verstoffwechseln können, aber das was sie können, gut über die KAK des Coco funktioniert und dies einem Salzaufbau entgegenwirkt.

Dried with working ventilation until the moment when the weight stopped falling harvesting a dried bush took about one and a half hours, because tried to keep the branches intact A picture taken from below is the quintessence of all my experience. That option which in my opinion should be considered the "golden recipe" of microgrow. No temporary loss, ease, flexibility and ease of scaling to fit any size. With the final weight, an awkward situation, although the branches began to break, and everything is very dry. It turned out too much to be believed even by myself. I evacuated bumps in four containers of 0.8 liters each (I had to tamp it down). 00000

Day 130 – Harvest Day | Sweet Seeds – Gorilla Girl Today marks the official harvest of our Gorilla Girl by Sweet Seeds – exactly 130 days from seed. The plant finished strong, with dense, resin-covered buds and a very intense aroma that exploded in the final days. Based on her structure and the weight of the colas, we’re expecting a solid yield. Final Techniques: Last 2 weeks: Only clean, purified water (flush stage) Last 3 days: Complete darkness Twice during the dark period: Placed 2 kg of ice directly on the soil The effect was noticeable — right after the ice melted, the smell intensified dramatically, and the trichomes looked even more frosty and swollen. Throughout the entire grow, she was fed with the Xpert Nutrients line, and the results speak for themselves — healthy growth, strong structure, and top-quality flowers. Big thanks to Sweet Seeds for the outstanding genetics and to Xpert Nutrients for reliable support all the way from seed to harvest. Now we move on to drying and curing — can’t wait to share the final weight and smoke report soon!

Just started this one off... Not much to say so far. This is a coco grow. I started off with an amended Coco using Gaia Green 4-4-4 and power bloom 2-8-4.

Inhale for 13s, Exhale for 13s, Inhale for 8s, Exhale for 8s, Inhale for 5s, Exhale for 5s, Inhale for 3s, Exhale for 3s, Inhale for 1s, Exhale for 1s, Alignment. 1.618 A plant with both standard cellular respiration (occurring throughout the plant, including leaves and stems) and adequate root respiration will have a significantly higher ATP throughput than one restricted to only general cellular respiration in a limited way. Cellular respiration is the fundamental metabolic process that occurs in all living plant cells (roots, stems, leaves, flowers, seeds) to convert glucose into usable energy (ATP). It requires oxygen and produces carbon dioxide and water as byproducts. Root respiration is not a separate type of respiration, but rather a specific instance of cellular respiration occurring in the roots. Roots absorb oxygen from the air spaces in the soil to fuel their energy needs. Roots require a substantial amount of ATP for essential functions like nutrient and water absorption, as well as growth and maintenance of their tissues. The primary form of respiration in healthy plant roots is aerobic respiration, which is highly efficient, yielding up to 30-38 ATP molecules per glucose molecule. Anaerobic Respiration (Inefficient): If roots are deprived of oxygen (e.g., in waterlogged soil), they switch to anaerobic respiration, which is far less efficient, producing only 2 ATP molecules per glucose molecule and also generating alcohol, which can be toxic and kill the plant. Therefore, a plant with healthy, oxygenated roots performing efficient aerobic respiration in addition to the rest of the plant's cellular respiration has a much greater overall ATP production and energy capacity. A soil without organic matter will generally have a low Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC). Biochar is often prized for its potential to increase soil cation exchange capacity (CEC), but this effect is highly dependent on the specific properties of the biochar (feedstock and pyrolysis temperature) and the soil type to which it is applied. High-ash biochars, especially those produced at lower temperatures and applied to acidic or sandy soils, can significantly boost CEC by providing abundant binding sites for cations like calcium (Ca²⁺), magnesium (Mg²⁺), and potassium (K⁺). Biochar is more sustainable than typical organic matter for long-term soil improvement primarily due to its high stability and resistance to microbial decomposition, allowing it to persist in the soil for hundreds to thousands of years. This longevity provides a lasting positive effect on soil properties, particularly by increasing the cation exchange capacity (CEC) over time, while regular organic matter breaks down much faster. Biochar generally offers a much higher CEC than coco coir, though specific values vary greatly; while coco coir might sit around 40-60 cmol/kg, biochar can range from tens to over 200 cmol/kg, with sources like Acacia wood biochar or even coconut shell biochar often surpassing coco's capacity due to its porous structure, creating significantly more cation-binding sites for nutrients, making it superior for nutrient retention. Needs to be charged similar to coco but at a much higger rate. But shhhh.. it's a secret. Recommend a balanced ratio of key cations, particularly calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and potassium (K). A widely accepted general "ideal soil" cation saturation ratio is approximately 65-85% Ca, 6-12% Mg, and 2-5% K. That's roughly what mine gets.

11/16/23 - Day 10 - Here we are on day 10 and she had a root hit the water over night. About 8 hrs later she had two roots in the water and her leaves are starting to perk up. From here on out I expect a rocket ship. Shes getting access to all the nutes now. 11/18/23 - Day 12 - The roots are going about as I expected in this Leaf Box. Shes always sad until her roots hit the water, then the fuse has been lit! There is no going back. When I looked at the water today there was one root that was floating about 7 - 8 in long that surprised me. Yesterday it was long maybe 4" but today it's at least doubled. 😀 Its so much fun growing in this Leaf Box. You really get to experience the joy in it, rather than the stress of trying to figure out some technical issue. Here the techical issues are close to none. I really get to focus on the training part. It also allows me to be more observant and I get more time to think about the little changes that I see. Usually my mind is so clouded with some engineering issue with her life support that I dont usually get the time to really focus on the plant. Its a whole different feel growing in the Leaf box. I posted a video up top. If you watch it you'll understand my above statement. Choosing the option to move to the next phase in the software is about as hard as it will ever get (aside from harvest, thats ALWAYS a bitch) Watch the video and if your feeling some kind of way let me know what you think.

Grow Diary — Week 30: Durban Poison Outdoor Grow Journal • Eastern Colorado • October 2026 Week 30 Update, day 209— Patience for the Final Harvest The Durban Poison plants have reached Week 30, and I'm taking a patient approach with their final harvest. Unlike the other two plants, which I harvested earlier, I'm intentionally letting these Durban Poison plants go longer in hopes of achieving a more relaxing, indica-like feel from the finished flower. Durban Poison is traditionally known for its uplifting, energetic, sativa-dominant effects. My goal with this later harvest is to see whether allowing the flowers to mature further changes the character of the experience. This season has also been a learning experience. The buds have turned out airier than I wanted, with less aroma and resin development than I'd hoped for. Those results will help guide my plans for next season, particularly my focus on improving root-zone oxygenation, drainage, and overall growing-medium structure. What I'm watching this week: * Flower maturity: Observing the flowers closely as they approach their final harvest. * Trichomes: Looking at resin glands for changes in clarity, cloudiness, and amber coloration. * Aroma and resin: Noting any further development before harvest. * Weather: Keeping a close eye on Eastern Colorado's cooler autumn temperatures and frost risk. Harvest strategy: These Durban Poison plants are being harvested later than the other two plants to explore whether additional maturity produces a more relaxing effect. One important note for the journal: a later harvest may change the balance of cannabinoids and the subjective effects, but it does not reliably turn a sativa-dominant cultivar into an indica-like one. I'll treat the final experience as something to evaluate rather than a guaranteed result. Week 30 takeaway: This is the final patience test of the season. I'm giving the Durban Poison plants additional time, watching their maturity and the weather, and documenting the results so I can make better decisions for next year's grow.

🌱 Sour Diesel — Week 7 From Seed (Week 2 Flower) Quick Recap (for context) This Sour Diesel has had a tougher road compared to the rest of the room. Earlier in the cycle, she was hit by a combination of: • Colder external temperatures • Environmental instability during early development • Slower initial adaptation compared to her sisters She never fully enjoyed the colder phase, and recovery has been slow but steady, not explosive. This update reflects a plant that is stabilizing, not one that is racing. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment Update • Day temperature: ~28 °C (successfully raised and now stable) • Humidity: ~65% • PPFD: ~600–850 (depending on height and position) • CO₂: ~900 ppm (now stabilizing around ~909 ppm) As outside temperatures remained low, the room naturally became its own heat source due to: • Increased plant mass • Higher light intensity • Addition of under-canopy lighting No forced heaters. No extremes. Just letting the system balance itself naturally. 🌬️ Airflow • Vortex extraction • Multiple cross-flow fans • Constant, gentle air movement No leaf chaos — just steady motion. ⸻ 💧 Feeding & Nutrition Strategy This week marks a clear transition phase. • EC: ~2.4 • pH: 6.5 (now transitioning downward — all feeds moving toward 6.0+) Why a Slightly Higher pH Right Now? As plants enter early flower, demand shifts: • Improved Ca / Mg uptake • Stronger P & K availability • Increased root activity A slightly higher pH during this moment supports: • Structural development • Flower initiation • Stability under higher PPFD and CO₂ Nutrient Transition • Terra Grow → flowering nutrients • Supporting the hormonal shift from stretch → stack • Minor signs of possible Ca/Mg demand observed → already being addressed → nothing severe or alarming (Reference images included above for transparency.) ⸻ 🌸 Flowering Progress & Current State She is flowering — slowly, which is expected after stress. Important clarification: • Week 7 from seed • Week 2 of flower This slower pace is not a failure — it’s a recovery-driven transition. She’s prioritizing balance before expression. Leaves are not “happy” in the Instagram sense, but they are: • Responsive • Stable • Not deteriorating That matters more right now. ⸻ 🌍 Seasonal Reality Outside conditions remain harsh: • Temperatures around 4–5 °C • Humidity consistently 90%+ • Full winter conditions The room itself is stable and dialed. The rest of the garden is thriving under these conditions. Because of that: • We are not changing the whole room for one plant • Instead, Sour Diesel receives extra attention and care • The environment remains optimal for the majority of the crop Adaptation goes both ways — plants and growers. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect (and What Not to) What we expect: • Continued stabilization • Gradual stacking over the coming weeks • Expression that comes late, not loud What we don’t expect: • Explosive stretch • Perfect symmetry • A “pretty” early flower phase This phase is critical because it determines: • Whether the plant commits energy to survival or production • How much it can realistically give later on Right now, the goal is completion, not competition. ⸻ 🙏 Closing Thanks Huge thanks to: • The genetics creators • The nutrient partners • The GrowDiaries platform for providing a space where growers can document, learn, and interact • The community — OGs, newcomers, supporters, skeptics, lovers, haters — all part of the journey Growing is adaptation.

With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. 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.

Hello everyone, here after 1 week of 12/12, the plants are doing well, the stretch is easily manageable for now and apart from 2 small latecomers the filling of the net is done perfectly ... As for the fertilizer I count as usual divided by 2 fertilizer grow and bloom to avoid the nitrogen deficiency, and the appearance of bloom fertilizer buds ... I also change the MH for HPS because personally I find the stretch more manageable with mh during 1 week of pre-flowering ... here is now room for photos ...

Hi budds and buddettez how is it growing?😁👍 A little greenhouse update today! Bin a while and the Runtz has grown insanely, i lolipopped her al the way up, supercropped/HST'ed her once every 2 days and still she is unstopable😁🙌 The soil is just spot on, i can see it on all my species of plants, they are really thriving, all the hard work of my dad and myself is paying off with lots of high quality veg and a little sidedish... FLOWERS, i love flowers, dense ones, rock hard covered in trichomes and bright orange pistils with insane oddours that want to make you clap your hands of but you cant cause your hands are glued together, those buds i ador. Oh yeah about those😂.. the Runtz is slowly showing of some pistils, and the Pineapple Glue? She is getting fatter and fatter last weeks, i fed her some extra nutes, Plagron👍 alga Bloom and some BIO Enchancer from the mighty Greenhouse👌 both bio and work like a charm, first time i fed her extra nutes and the last i recon, she doesnt seem to need it but i wanted to boost her a little to increase bud density and mass😁👌 Have a great week all and happy growing!!😁👊

Week 4 looking spot on

This Week i let them just continue to grow out of the LST. Last Day of the Week i cut down all the lower branches and defuliated the leaves. First Week of Flower and the Plant shows some nice female Flower-pistols. This Week i started with the Flower Feeding, i gave her about 4 tsp Seabird Guano as Topdress Feeding, it got a NPK of 7-4-5 so not idial for Flower but i guess Perfect for Streching-phase. Please Let me Know if you do Lollipop your Autoflowers ?? i was pretty unsure if i should do it but i was afraid that if i didn't do it it would cause problems cause of the ventilation. Hope you like the Grow so far !

11/23 Week 9 Start the week with a harvest, Pat LSD-25 Harvest day. Pat - 940 Grams wet will take a big hit on dry due to her structure but think she will dry out to about 150 grams see if Im right. Pics on the rest later Note on LD-25: We like to harvest these before the trics start going amber, the psycho-activity is unreal at that point. pics 11/24 Joan's buds are closing up so time to put her on a ripening feed as listed. Thinking 10 days to finish last few in flush 11/26 Pat the Tall yielded 158 grams dry Great work big girl now lets see what Blondie will do 11/27 Joan has gone on Phed water her buds have closed and no sense keeping it up ready to finish up Listed feed is latest for Blondie as she builds cotton balls 12/1 Sorry for the delays got an issue or two over here. New week tomorrow promise May harvest Joan tomorrow she is ready will depend on our schedule if not then the following day Not the monster my wife #HisHope grew last summer but a very respectable girl. Have a guess in mind but think I will sit on that my guesses have been pitiful of late 😝

20.11.2025 Well, I did it and chose a branch to pollinate. I've put a bag over the Agent-Orange-Male-Flowers, cut it off, carried it to the tent, put it over the Gelato x Black Lebanon-Female, shook and clapped et voilà, I hope it worked 😅. She is georgious, splendid and healthy. I need to defoliate her more, but now, after the pollination of one branch, I do prefer to leave her alone for a while. Her flowers are bulping up, the stretch was extremely intense and also she does drink very much! What a journey 🌸💜.

En voilà une de moins se n ai pas la plus grande du jardin mais c été la plus rapide !! 8 semaine demain. Autrement je passerai remplir le journal quand la plante sera sèche avec le poids etc etc.. Voilà la gorrila x purple punch à sécher et à été mis en bocale j ai recolter un petit 40g sec (pas mal vue la forme de la plante et ces branches toutes fine ) Par contre l odeur est magnifique sa sent le chewing gum fruit des bois sur un fond de canelle , café,très sucrée vraiment une odeur forte mais très agréable (je pense donc refaire cette strain très vite mais cette fois si avec toping .lst etc histoire de gonfler les chiffre;)

Had loads of problems with these the same happened with one of my cream cookies which died, I've not been able to figure out what it was but today I started added h2o2 to my solution so fingers crossed next week they will look healthier really dont want to lose these:(
