End of week one, replaced one of the poundcakes because one of the seeds didnt pop. nothing to report, smooth sailing so far will feed next week.

🌱 Week 1: The Journey Begins! 🌟 Hey Grow Fam! 🙌 We’re off to an epic start with our TrolMaster adventure, and I’m already feeling the love for the setup, the seeds, and the growth happening in the room! So, let’s dive right in and get into the details of this exciting week! 🌿 Germination Update: Our first Gorilla Melon seed from Fast Buds didn’t sprout, but no worries—round two was a success! 🦍🍈 The second seed has germinated and is looking full of potential. I’m throwing in a Sweet Seeds Papaya Zoap into the germination station too, so we’re keeping this exciting lineup going strong! Germination is such a key part of the journey, and having a healthy start is what it’s all about. 🔧 Room Build & TrolMaster Setup: The build is coming along beautifully, and I gotta say, the TrolMaster system is blowing my mind! Everything’s under control like magic 🎩✨, and the TM+ app? Wow, just wow. I mean, I can literally be in the bathroom and still keep an eye on the plants—check all the metrics, adjust settings, and fine-tune what I need, all from my phone! 😂💧 This level of control is next level. I’m loving how smooth and seamless it makes managing the room. The gear is just unreal, and seeing it all come together is truly something special. 🌱 Nutrition Talk: As for feeding, we’re starting light but smart! I’ve begun with 0.15ml of Regulator and 0.25ml of Startbooster per liter for now. I always believe in starting easy and ramping up as the plants develop. These early stages are crucial—balance is everything. For the time being, I feel this is more than enough to keep the babies happy and healthy. 🌿💧 The Regulator is working wonders in maintaining plant structure and health, while the Startbooster is fueling the early root and vegetative growth, laying down a solid foundation for the weeks to come. It’s about getting it right from the start—too much too early can be a killer. Keeping it steady with precision, that’s the goal! Big Shout-Outs: To the amazing team at @TrolMaster, @Fast_Buds, @Sweet_Seeds, @AptusHolland, and all the incredible sponsors—I’m beyond grateful for the support! 💚 And to my GrowDiaries fam and followers, you guys make this journey what it is—thank you for the love, and I’m so honored to have you along for this ride. 🙏 We’re just getting started, and I can’t wait to show you what’s next. Stay tuned for more updates, epic builds, gear reviews, and plenty of insight. Don’t forget to follow me on GrowDiaries, YouTube, and IG for exclusive content, and let’s make this grow the best one yet! 🌿🔥 Growers Love to All 💚💚💚 P.S.- A deep dive into the Full Spectrum Quantum Sensor (MBS-PAR): The Full Spectrum Quantum Sensor (MBS-PAR) is an essential tool for any serious grower looking to optimize their light environment. This sensor measures photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), which refers to the spectrum of light that plants actually use for photosynthesis—typically between 400 and 700 nanometers and more depending . What makes the MBS-PAR sensor special is its full spectrum capability, meaning it accurately detects not just visible light but also far-red and UV light—which are crucial for maximizing plant growth, development, and flowering. With this tool, I can monitor the exact intensity of light my plants are receiving, making sure they’re getting the optimal levels for every stage of growth. By using this sensor in my grow room, I’ll be able to ensure that the light distribution is uniform across the canopy. Plus, it allows me to fine-tune the light output from my ThinkGrow LED setup, ensuring my plants are thriving under the best conditions. Whether it’s increasing light during the vegetative phase or fine-tuning it for flowering, the MBS-PAR sensor helps me keep everything on point. And the best part? I can monitor it all through the TrolMaster app, ensuring I can make adjustments whenever needed—even if I’m not in the grow room! This level of precision means healthier plants, better yields, and maximum efficiency. It’s a game-changer for taking the guesswork out of lighting and getting closer to growing perfection! 🌱💡 Growers Love to All 💚💚💚

So if you haven’t noticed before, you probably see it now. LOTS of tied up branches. I was not prepared for how much weight management I was going to have to do lol. Granted, this plant is a whole lot bigger than the lil 2x2 tent plants I’m used to. I don’t typically have to worry about weight at all. Either way, it’ll all workout. Just means it was more tedious work and my hands had to get a bit stickier. Next summer I’ll come up with an actual plant to manage weight. Enjoy the video, does a lot better justice to the amount of bud in this thing.

Good stretch this week, I haven’t lollipopped at all, not even in veg. It’s fairly leafy everywhere and I want to get in there and defoliate bottom 1/3 soon. A lot of dead leaves I imagine, just been so busy and been neglecting the grow. Funny, how when you first start out and you’re overly micro-managing and then as the months go by, it starts to become a chore. I ordered a light from China, a Meijiu (HLG)550 V3. HLG Canada didn’t want to give me a decent discount so, unfortunately had to ship my money outside the country. Saved 50% for a quality light though. Might take a bit to get here, been processing in Hong Kong for 4 days. So far the leaves are healthy but last run they started to turn deficient after the stretch. In my defence, with the last grow, I was just starting on the dry nutrient regimen and made mistakes. Hopefully it stays healthy throughout bloom cycle with new changes and knowledge. New reservoir this week as follows: Partial drain, most of it gone, but 100mL RO added and; 40 gram cal nit 30 jacks 30 mag sulph. 100mL mighty bloom enhancer 100mL head masta 300 mL h2o2 25 mL Fulvic 40mL Humic pH ended up high with addition of bloom enhancer, added pH down to 5.8. PPM 1360. Wednesday-Day 10 Added water and some nutes. PPM 1200 pH 6.0 Started a small section of lower 1/3 defoliation Day 11 Did some more defoliation, added a video to show progress. Day 12 Finished lollipop on right plant. Moved some branches around. Added 20 liters and 20g cal nit, 10g of both jacks and magnesium sulphate.

week 13 went smooth

So at the start of the week I did what everyone says not to with autos; top/fim em!! As I said this is 💯 an experiment so, why not?? The last pic and vid are 3 days after topping

Flower Week 3

Fast fertig

The tallest pheno is ready and being flushed for a couple of days now, rhe others are close but still consuming nutrients at a strong rate , I think they will take at least 1 more week. They smell very much like gelato as a group but are all very different from one another .

Greetings, fellow cultivators! Week 8 with our majestic Big Cheese Auto is like stepping into a festive wonderland, and the excitement is reaching its crescendo. A colossal shoutout to Seeds Mafia for the genetics that keep surprising and delighting. Our green queen is dancing through her fourth week of flowering, and oh my, what a spectacle! It's like she's transformed into a true monster bush, embracing the Christmas tree structure with open arms. The Autopot system continues to be the backstage pass, allowing her to sip on a nutrient feast with grace. It's like the VIP treatment for a botanical masterpiece. Nutrient Maestros: P-Boost, Topbooster, and now, the latest addition, K-Boost, continue their nutrient symphony. It's like the Three Tenors of the botanical world, creating a harmonious bloom with organic nitrogen, L-amino acids, trace elements, and maturation magic. The anticipation for those colossal, aromatic buds is now heightened by the maturation finesse brought by K-Boost. Ah, the sweet scent of success! The aroma has started to unveil itself, a tantalizing mystery that accompanies the vast trichome production. It's like the plant's way of whispering secrets of the flavors that await. The olfactory journey has begun, and I'm eagerly anticipating the unveiling of this aromatic masterpiece. Our TDS is maintaining its robust 420 , and the pH, a symphony at 6.0. The Autopot and the nutrient trio are now conducting an orchestra of botanical brilliance. It's like a green harmony that resonates through every leaf and bud. Our Christmas tree is getting its final touches. The leaf-bending spectacle continues, creating an even canopy that basks in the natural light. Defoliation is a delicate grooming session, ensuring every bud gets its moment in the spotlight. It's like preparing for the grand finale of this floral extravaganza. A colossal thank you to Seeds Mafia, Aptus Holland, Grow Diaries, and the incredible community. Your support is the heartbeat of this flourishing green odyssey. As we step into the next week, the excitement is palpable. Our Big Cheese Auto is not just growing; she's evolving into a botanical marvel. I can't wait to witness the grand finale of this Christmas tree spectacle. Let's continue to cultivate greatness together!

All going well. No problems

Day 29 - Topped both ladies at the fifth node and removed any growth below. Growth exploded since transplant and first dose of nutrients. Day 30 - Watered both ladies with around 100ml of water. They recovered from the topping and look as healthy as can be. Very happy with progress. Day 32 - Misted both ladies. Day 33 - Watered both ladies with around 250ml each. Increased dosage slightly from last feed to see how they take it. Day 35 - Misted both ladies to keep them hydrated. Maria is doing well, showing vigorous growth. Planning to top her again next week and remove any growth below the topped nodes. Juanita has fallen behind, new growth points seem to be growing sideways. Keeping an eye on her progress, hopefully she turns out ok. Not planning to top her again until normal growth resumes, do not want to stress her out.

So it is officially Day 28, start of week 4. This girl has been EXTREMELY STINKY since her 2nd set of leaves, a trait I have learned will generally yield some GASSY and DANK flower. I decided to remove all the fan leaves but the last 2 all the way at the top. The goal is to have all the internodes turn into multiple branches that can be clipped and cloned. No issues so far. Will keep everyone posted. I also applied some LST clips to the lower internode offshoots.

Hello friends. I've not done anything really to her this week. She asked for nothing really.. maybe the odd bedtime story but otherwise she is just resting and recovering from last week's toppings. She has pushed new growth that has supposed me. I need to cut off the next set of nodes but I think I may wait a few days and do the final topping all in one hit. I can't get her into flowering room for another 6-8 weeks so I have some good time to shape her into a sixteen cola mega beast..(I hope). If I do the copy chop cho later this week ishall update some pics of the torture.. ...update..... Did the final topping for 16. She has some interesting variations in growth rates at each node.. I think all the twisting has an effect on how the next node grows. I think I see a way by twisting the branch through a full rotation between nodes you can affect how the next branch set grows... It's just an observation ATM but I will maybe experiment with another plant to test this. She seems okay after the torture. I will leave her to grow out for a few weeks now I guess🤔 Thanks for looking. Stay safe😷😷 Keep growing and stay happy.🌱🌿😜🤪👍

Brought to u by Mars Hydro. Grow on Earth. Grow with Mars 🚀🚀 All pics and videos taken day 28. Almost half way there. Rice is frosty, Simily not so much. Eat. Sleep. Grow 🌲🌲

Love the stack!!! Sssooooo frosty! Couldn't imagine if I didn't have deficiencies.

Ladies are on beast mode! Friday they got 4 cups of 4-4-4 Gaia green and 8gal of compost tea. I did some super cropping as there getting pretty tall and I don’t want them over the fence and at this rate there going to be! Hopefully if everything goes as planned I’ll have the boards or at least some to put up the next time I come home. We’re now into the 10 foot in diameter cages, a few branches started poking thru just the other day. These girls are going to be bigger then last year that’s for sure there already way bigger. We’ll see what next week looks like after some hst thanks for stoppin in.

Whats going on ladies and gents !! We on the start of week 2 . Not much to say here shes growing and doubling in size daily shes pushing her second node already and I have a feeling that I may be planting her in her final home by the end of this week or next week . So far I'm loving the way she grows she's looking like shes going to finish strongly . Going to starting the nutrient regime this week to get her going nice and strong ! Thanks to everyone who stops in to the diary !!! A special thank you to all my followers that come in daily and weekly to check out the updates you guys kick ass ! -Happy Growing!
