Feb 19th,
- week 9 of flower sees a lot of subtle changes going on. The smell at the door is one, and it’s becoming a very dense and dark odour. Fruit-like up close.
- Molasses doubled as root boosters get removed and Calimg has only 1 feed left, tonight.
- Mar 1 is the tentative flush, first day of week 11 in flower.
Those will be a long couple of weeks, feeding h20 & sugar only
- noticing the stems of Fan leaves are turning Red/Crimson on L plant. A few are in the R as well.
** question asked about Red Stems **
23rd
- noticing a definite increase in the Trichomes of the Buds, under the UVB (pics tonight).
There are simply more now and it’s kinda obvious when side by side. Lite spill from uvb is falling on the left plant as well, but not from 14”
- feed tonite will include a bit of CaliMag once again moving forward and a lingering taste of Medi-One.
- Trichomes were checked today. As happy as I was to see a few Amber ones. They were very wide-spread with most of the others still 50/50 clear and cloudy.
- Based on todays Trichome check; hoping to flush ~ Mar 7 now. That will be the end of 11 complete weeks of Flower. FYI: Breeders expectation "11-12” weeks. Happy to see it linger a bit, diet, humidity and lighting changes have been incremental throughout. How quickly the next changes happen ie: clear to cloudy etc., I have no idea.
Would love to see ~ 10% Amber, just enough to say it’s Very ripe. ( Not in any way thinking of couch-lock lol )
- literature & product labels on Humic Acid recommend usage throughout Veg & Flower... just Not the last 3 weeks. That rules this batch out... So the next batch(s) get introduced.
- Macro shots tonight of the Buds under the UVB... cannot wait.
** found 1 bud on the R plant, that had quite a bit of Amber showing. Nowhere to be seen in the L plant, but it looks like a high concentration of Cloudy Trichomes on the L regardless.
One more serious search tonight of the R plant and it may just be time for a rinse.
Surprised to see so many Ambers, alone on this one bud.
Pics uploaded ! re: 24th a.m.
Feb24th,
- when the lights came on this evening, I did another thorough check on both plants and there were more Amber trichomes found. Ready or not, both plants were Thoroughly flushed.
- Flush aid used in the process.
- 10 Litres of Water was mixed with Molasses / Rezin as the first liquids poured into the plants, after the Flush...
- when it came right down to it, the sudden appearance and then rapid spreading of the Amber Trichomes made it an easy call, to flush both plants.
Thoughts on the amount of white hairs left... they have a couple weeks to get their shit together... if I can get a couple weeks of flushing-in, that’s a definite bonus.
25th
- humidity spike in the Tent. doors are cracked and a floor fan has been added for extra air flow. Exhaust fan increased...
26th, no liquid to remove from the plants btm Trays, but still showing a high humidity. R.H. coming down slowly, aimed the fans at the fabric pots... doors cracked etc.
* why mess around, hooked up the dehumidifier... R.H. dropping, end of issue

Another week of filing out and piling on crystal, absolutely love this strain . I smoked a bit of it already and it’s so sweet , heavy on the cookie and then bang a citrus burst to finish. Maybe another 2 weeks and I’ll be in orange cookies heaven . It’s gonna be a bumper harvest those buds are so dense and long really got that orange dream structure and the taste of that classic cookie . Really special strain this one highly recommended.

Day 50:
Everything is looking happy after the little trimming. Getting ready to head out of town in a few days. Ordered a small automatic waterer from Amazon to assist while I'm gone.
Watering/feeding day.
Each plant got 1 gallon of water with the following things:
5mL per gallon Alaska 5-1-1
30mL per gallon Alaska 0-10-10 (a little more than normal to give them a boost)
5mL per gallon GrowMore Seaweed Extract
15mL Blackstrap Molasses
Scratched into the surface of each pot is a 1/2 cup of Happy Frog Fruit & Flower
Day 52:
Leaving town early on Day 53 for 5 days. To prepare for the time I'll be gone I got an automatic watering system from amazon. Since I only use a total of 4 gallons during watering and only need one watering done while I'm gone, a single bucket will do the trick. I set up the system, installed two watering stems per pot, and made a looped system. In the bucket of water, I added nothing but the water. I don't want to have to worry about stirring it or anything like that. I set the system up to water when lights come on during the 3rd day I'm gone, Day 55. After I had the system set up I watered/fed the plants.
Each plant got 1 gallon with the following:
5mL per gallon Alaska 5-1-1
15mL per gallon Alaska 0-10-10
5mL per gallon Grow More Seaweed Extract
15mL Blackstrap Molasses
Plant 2 also got 1.25mL of AGT-50
Plant 3 also got 15mL of Liquid Culture Microbes
Plant 4 also got both the AGT-50 and LCM at the same amounts above.
Hope the watering system works.

In general I'm very happy growing this strain. The germination rate was 100%, all 3 sprouted, even though one ended up dying after some weeks. My fault here, she grew upside down and when I
moved her she didn't reacted well.
The growing conditions were initially a little unstable as I couldn't find the right balance between temperature and RH, having the latter one constantly too low, making me buy an humidifier to keep the level higher. Well, too high in the lights off period, and when distracted could reach up to 99% RH, which isn't good. Again, lesson learned for the next grow.
Maybe I've defoliated the plant a little too much and that might have also affected the crop a little.
When it comes to feeding, didn't use so much plain water, the feeding were nutrient based all the time. Not sure if this had any negative effects in the plant.
Was fun to train the plant and I learnt a lot about topping. To be fair, I don't know if this was what affected her final crop or if I stunned her in the last defoliation. Quite inclined for that option..
After all this, finish with this amount of bud is ok and positive lessons were taken for the coming grows.
Overall I think I made a few beginner mistakes that affected the plant growth and flower, but again, having no pests, plagues, or any diseases was already a very good accomplishment and I'm really looking forward to start the next grow, and enjoy the smoke from this little one after drying and curing.
As it was the first diary ever, was very fun to do it, and helped a lot controlling crucial parts of the growth. Definitely will keep posting here my future grows.
Thank you all for following this diary, for the likes, all comments and answers to my questions. Without your feedback wouldn't have got this far.
Smoke report will follow when the bud is ready, now is hanging and drying.
Thank you all

Lovely body high on this one! Amazing for pain relief! Nice head too, taste and smell 10/10. Little yield but that was probably because of my mess ups throughout the grow. Overall a great strain
Only yielded 9gs, was a small plant but no doubt I stressed it along the way so I think it’s more down to my mistakes than the genetics
Tastes of grapey diesel, 10/10 🍇
Smells of straight grapes, 10/10 🍇
Appearance, very frosty and great looking bud(could be trimmed better but that’s on me)! 9/10

Bruce Banner #3 Fast is growing great under the Hortibloom Solux 350. She got a air stone change a few days ago. She had a solution change today aimed more for blooming. Her colas are developing a nice frosty resin. I added a tablespoon of blackstrap molasses to the solution as well. 🤞🏻she keeps on trucking along strong. Thank you Hortibloom, and The Original Sensible Seeds Company. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱❄️🌱

This week I started her LST and bent her top over as far as possible without snapping and locked her in place. I use soft wire "Gear Ties" sold in the hardware section of most places. I got mine at Home Depot. I highly recommend these for anyone serious about Lst.
I kept her in this position for about 4 days before adjusting placement and pulling the main top back down below the lower branches.
I have been maintaining the same feeding schedule "week 4 hydro" 3/4 str main nutrients, 1/2 str Open Seasame.
She started showing preflowers on me even though it's been in an 18/6 light cycle. So that's why OS and week 4 feeding was opted.
Even though the plant was technically 2 months old, she's only been fed and treated right for 2 weeks now. So week 7 from seed, I started at the week 3 schedule.

What fun she was to top dress and forget about. 😂
She are a little extra in flower, but most do. She coasted in green sensation at the end. Loved how easy it was.
Awesome Irene at Promix provided the media for this grow. Very greatly appreciated! 💚😻

12/25/2023-Germination Day 1
Merry X-mas 2023 I decided to start a run of SolFIre Gardens Hoodz Candyz S1. I am going to do a cup filled with RO water a touch of Hydrogen peroxide and let it sit for 24-48 hours until I see tap root then I am going to put it into a rapid rooter.. Tap root Down and put it about 1/4 of the say down the Rapid rooter.
I made some modifications to my basket on this run.. I have taken a few Pods that I use for my cloning machine and decided that I am going to try and use them as sure plants, so that I can take my water right up to the bottom of the basket this time and see if these can make my planting more consistent.
12/26/2023-Germination Day 2
Tap root achieved Planting Commencing
12/27/2023-Germination Day 3
