So i had to take all my plants inside because i found bud rot on 2 of them & the weather wasn’t going to get any better, had to transform my bedroom into a grow room😂 & i have 2 more plants which i am going to finish next to a window.. The smaller plant to the right is a Northern light by zamnesiaseeds that has a seperate diary if you are interested! I really hope the bud rot doesn’t spread anymore & if anyone has any tips or tricks for that they are always welcome!

Esta semana tocó la poda de los apicales y primer nudo dejando solo 4 nudos por planta. Por lo que parece tienden a grandes hojas e internodos cortos. Esta semana también aumenté la potencia del lumatex hasta el 75% unos 220W. Empecé con 100 W luego fueron 150 y ahora 220 , así hasta cambiar el fotoperiodo a 12/12h. Entonces al 100%, 300W. Con 26 dias de vida ya tenian suficientes nudos, ramas y tocó hacer el apical y la poda del primer nudo a todas dejando 4 nudos por planta, 8 ramas secundarias. Terminamos la semana con la nº5 con manchas en las hojas muy feas. Entiendo que tengo que tratarla diferente al resto por lo que la regaré menos y dejaré secar más entre riegos al menos un par de veces.

Just as difficult to grow as the first time I done Afghan kush but still managed to get some nice purple bud out of it!!!

December 23, day 9. Growing coming along decently, despite the early transpiration issue and large pot size. Clear bag and humidifier have been working well, as the ambient humidity of around 35 percent is not pleasant for younger plants. Coco is never my favorite for seedlings, but I expect things to take off soon! December 26, day 12, I reduced how much the plant is covered, while still maintaining humidity. I am experimenting with JR Peterson dry nutrients, specifically their 1 part "tap" formula to see if it holds ph better in for Toronto tap water. I am feeding .4 ec of dry Cal mag and .4 ec of the base nutrients for a total of 1 ec, and I will see how the malasana cookies responds! December 28, Day 14, malasana cookies is responding just fine to the change in nutrients. I am applying 2x daily foliar at .8ec Cal-mag. Its difficult to maintain consistent high plant humidity with such low ambient RH, so this can hopefully help with cal-mag. Cal-mag can be particularly difficult to move up the xylem during transpiration under these conditions. While the plant looks a bit yellow in the photos the leaves are a decently healthy green in realty.

The ladies really didn’t have too much change this week except girl #2 seems like she’s caught up in height to girl #1. I have to make a correction to from week 3. I stated I topped the girls when i actually did some light FIMing.I wanted to be sure i corrected that mistake before my diary process any further. I kind of went a little too heavy on the feeding and the girls showed some slight yellowing and a 1 leaf started to Slightly curl into a taco. Nothing too serious but I definitely will be dialing back on the feeding doses. decided to do some defoliation To the fan leafs that were significantly blocking light from future bud sites. I’m not sure how these girls will take to me cutting off foliage. Only time will tell. These girl are starting to put off Some stank. The smell it’s very strong but you can get a sense of what’s to come. It smells of gassy sweet pineapple citrus. Have to admit I was skeptical until I did a stem rub and these girls were spot on. When rubbing the stem they smell so much more sweeter almost like a candy sweet smell. really appreciate all who have viewed my diary. I’m actually shocked how people viewed it so far. Thank you very much for the love 💚. I’m grateful and humbled for your support. Hopefully these girls start to go into the pre flowering stage in the next week, I’m over excited to see them develop. Again thank you all for your support and comments and suggestions are welcomed💚

Just cruising along. Not sure why some look like they will be very tiny, but at least one looks like it will be of a decent size.

🌿 Week 11: Frosty Heights & Real Talk (Flower Week 6) First off, apologies for the slight delay! Usually, I drop these updates on Monday, but I was out celebrating my 25th birthday yesterday and, well... let’s just say things got a little out of control, haha! But I'm back in the tent now, and the girls didn't seem to mind the extra day of peace. Welcome to Week 11. We are deep in the flowering phase (Week 6), and the tent is looking like a winter wonderland. But let’s keep it real – while the frost is insane, it hasn't been a "perfect" run since it’s my first experience with living soil. Here’s the honest breakdown. 🛠️ The Big Defoliation & Adjustments The canopy got so thick that I had to perform one last major defoliation. I removed a significant amount of the large fan leaves that were shading the lower bud sites. It’s always a tough call this late in the game, but it was absolutely necessary to get that light penetration down to the secondary colas and improve RH. Combined with raising the entire tent to save the tops from light stress, the environment is now much more balanced. If you look closely at some of the upper leaves, you can still see a bit of "tacoing" (curling edges) from the previous light intensity and buds on the top of the sweet spot are not very well bulked because of heat stress by light. I caught it likely and the "scars" remained. 🌱 Organic Struggles & Success The "Autumn Fade" is hitting harder than I expected. The remaining fan leaves are yellowing quite aggressively. In living soil, this usually means the nitrogen is running low what I read as the plant focuses everything on the buds. I’m letting nature take its course, but I’ll keep an eye on it to make sure they have enough gas to reach the finish line. • The Scrog Management: My canopy isn't perfectly level. I have a few "underdogs" getting shadowed by the main colas even after the defoliation. It’s a lesson for next time – I need to be even more aggressive with LST early on to keep everything in one uniform plane. 📊 Stats & Environment: • Genetics: Banana Purple Punch Auto (FastBuds) • Status: Bulking phase. • RH: Dropped to 45%-40% – absolutely critical now to prevent any bud rot in these dense clusters. • Temp: 22-26°C. • Aroma: A heavy mix of tropical fruit sweets and gassy undertones. It’s not a catalog grow, it’s a real grow. The "girls" are finishing strong despite the big hiccups. Thanks for riding along with me growmies, one love! 💜🤜🏼🤛🏻 Wondrej

This week, the plant has entered pre-flowering, as can be seen in the video—it’s about to bloom. The aroma has become very strong and pleasant. The plant is drinking a lot of water, almost 3–4 liters per day, as I place it outside in the sun whenever possible while keeping it in the grow box.

She was the second to pop up (and purple punch earlier that day) I won’t be topping any autos this run! I will be only low stress training until scrog and then I’ll high stress train if necessary! I’ve given the first feed today of biobizz (doing fastbuds organic the other 3 synthetic) my aim is to keep the veg period vigorous! As a great veg equals great bloom! All other

missed a whole week in this I deliberately didnt post or take any pics in week 7 because I burned my baby( used my cucumber feeding water which is stronger) so bad I was ashamed to show her to the world I did a flush but the damage done to her beautiful leaves is permanent but she still coming buds coming in nice small from the shock of the burn but still healthy plant .

I’m letting this cherry cola literally do it’s own thing. I want everyone to see how little if done right it takes to grow an auto

Stopped using fish it. Started using mammoth p. .6 ml per 1 gallon in all gallons every water. Thats all im using. I put the roi-680 on 100% its about 16 inches above and i put the diablo at 70% and thats about 22 inches above
