Chugging along. Have had some moisture issues in the tent- pooling water on the floor. Added another fan to keep things moving plus reduced the temp at which the exhaust fan blows one degree. That seemed to help. I’m a little worried that the buds seem so small this late in the game. I’ll officially ask a question about this later, but I have been having a lot of condensation inside my tent. That’s because it is in a cold part of my house. And though I do have two fans running and the temp is set low, the condensation is running down my walls and under my floor tray. Not a huge issue except I tried wiping down the walls today and bent a pretty good bud stalk. Not sure if it will keep growing or if it will be an early sacrifice. But, bummer all the same. Also, I figured out that I was a week off. So, just starting week 8.

This was my very first international trip outside of North America. This was in March 2023. I’m off to Tenerife. Here are just a bunch of photos from that trip. I had a great time.

Bienvenidos cultivadores de marihuana clandestinos, y también, a los que tienen la fortuna de no serlo!🖐️👨‍🌾 Séptima semana de cultivo, bastantes cosas que contar y pocas fuerzas para hacerlo, porque estoy con una gripe fuerte, pero voy a intentarlo... todo por la causa! A principios de semana hice un riego profundo con dos Bio preparados que inauguro con esta planta, son preparados que he mantenido en fermentación anaeróbica desde que los hice al principio de verano, los primeros 30-45 días la fermentación es violenta, después se ralentiza, y para mi, cuanto más tiempo tarde en abrirlo es mejor, porque la disolución de los nutrientes y minerales es mayor. Las Enzimas del pasto fermentado y los Microorganismos de Montaña (sólidos y líquidos) que uso como inóculo hacen todo el trabajo. Puedes ver este proceso de creación de mis Bio Fermentos desde el inicio aquí: https://growdiaries.com/diaries/134104-grow-journal-by-defharo/week/782852 - Bio Blood EM: Esta fórmula la he pensado para aplicar en etapas tempranas de crecimiento vegetativo, como materia prima nutritiva he usado sangre seca, que es muy rica en nitrógeno orgánico, las enzimas y los Microorganismos convierten esa proteína en aminoácidos, estos, son directamente asimilados por la planta. - Bio Mealfrass EM: Con la disolución de los nutrientes de este guano de gusano de la harina (NPKMg...) y mezclándolo con el anterior Bio preparado obtengo un fertilizante muy poderoso y al tiempo que riego, inoculo Microbiología al suelo. Antes del riego añadí una buena capa de mulch semi descompuesto y con mucha microbiología, este mulch contiene hojas, raíces y otros mulch rescatados de plantas cosechadas. Después de 6 días desde el riego se puede apreciar el crecimiento y fortalecimiento de la planta. Cuando toque el siguiente riego, añadire las primeras enmiendas secas y completaré la capa de mulch... me voy a la cama 🖐️ ============== Info de la cepa Mendo T: https://www.thehighchameleon.com/es/shop/mendo-t-6#attr=202 - 85% Indica, 15% Sativa. THC: 18%. Floración: 8 Semanas.

This week, I had to cut three leaves—two smaller ones that looked like some kind of insect had laid eggs on them, and one of the big sun leaves. Finally, I can see some brown trichomes on the B-grade buds. I thought about harvesting soon, but it will probably take another two weeks or so... Or I may have to harvest her week by week. I haven't decided yet. What I can say is that increasing the amount of fertilizer has helped improve the health of the leaves. I should have increased it sooner; it seems that autos need more nutrients earlier than photoperiod plants.

Week 4 Report: White OG – Bigger Roots, Bigger Heights! 🌟 What a week for our White OG! 🌱 She’s had an epic milestone week with her first transplant into a larger pot and her first topping at node 7. Each step has been about preparing her for greatness, and she’s taken everything in stride. Let’s dive into the details of her journey this week and why these steps are so important for her development. The Transplant: New Home, New Opportunities 🌿 The first big move of the week was upgrading her from her small pot to a bigger pot with a perfect blend of soil and nutrients to fuel her next stage of growth. Soil Choice: PRO-MIX HP Mycorrhizae + Bacillus This premium soil mix is a grower’s best friend, designed to give plants a perfect foundation. Here’s why I chose it: • High Porosity (HP): Promotes excellent drainage and aeration, preventing overwatering and ensuring roots have access to oxygen. • Mycorrhizae: These beneficial fungi form a symbiotic relationship with the plant’s roots, increasing water and nutrient uptake while improving overall root health and vigor. • Bacillus Subtilis: A powerful beneficial bacterium that helps protect against soil pathogens, enhances nutrient absorption, and boosts overall plant resilience. This mix creates an optimal environment for strong, healthy roots to develop, setting the stage for explosive vegetative growth. Aptus Holland All-in-One Pellets: Nutrient Perfection To supercharge the soil, I incorporated Aptus Holland All-in-One Pellets into the mix. These pellets are a complete slow-release nutrient solution that ensures consistent feeding over time. • Key Benefits: • Long-lasting nutrient release (up to 2-3 months). • Contains macro and micronutrients essential for steady, balanced growth. • Supports microbial activity in the soil, further boosting nutrient availability. • Easy to use and prevents nutrient burn. By combining Pro-Mix HP with Aptus Pellets, she’s getting the best of both worlds: a thriving microbiome and consistent nutrition to fuel her development. The Topping: Encouraging Bushier Growth 🌱✂️ At the end of the week, I decided it was time for her first topping—a critical training technique to shape her growth structure. I chose to top her at node number 7, leaving a solid foundation for future growth. What Is Topping? Topping involves cutting off the plant’s main growing tip to encourage it to grow multiple main colas (branches). This redirects energy from vertical growth to lateral (side) growth, creating a bushier, more productive plant. Why Topping Matters: 1. Maximizes Yield: By encouraging more colas, the plant can produce more flowers during the flowering stage. 2. Improves Light Penetration: A bushier plant allows light to reach more leaves and nodes, improving overall growth. 3. Encourages Even Canopy: Topping helps create a flat, even canopy, which is ideal for maximizing light distribution. The timing of topping is crucial, and at node 7, she’s strong enough to handle the stress while still early enough to recover quickly and focus on lateral growth. Environment and Feeding Routine: Consistency Is Key 🌟 This week, the environment has stayed perfect for her needs: • Temperature: Warm and steady, promoting steady vegetative growth. • Humidity: Still high to support root development post-transplant. • Lighting: The Future of Grow (FOG) LED continues to shine now at 300 PPFD, delivering just the right intensity for compact, strong growth. Nutrient-wise, we stuck with the reliable Aptus Holland lineup: • Regulator (0.15 ml/L): Strengthening her structure and managing stress from the transplant and topping. • CalMag Boost (0.25 ml/L): Supporting chlorophyll production and preventing deficiencies. • All-in-One Liquid (1 ml/L): Providing her with balanced, immediate nutrients to complement the slow-release pellets. • Start Booster (0.25 ml/L): Encouraging her roots to keep pushing deeper and stronger. Looking Ahead: Building on a Strong Foundation Next week, I’ll be watching for her recovery from topping and monitoring how she adjusts to her new pot and nutrient-rich soil. I’m expecting explosive growth as she settles into her new environment and gets ready for the big stages ahead!

Day 33 from seed: Well what a week for the girls. I am a few days early for an update but the week postings go out of sync anyway.lol. I also wanted to catch them at their training start before I punish them and make them look rough for a bit. #1 Has been working in her chlorophyll from her pale beginnings. The mega crop has worked really well to bring her back to a more healthy green. I expect she will get better now the Living Organic soil is active and I am stopping the MC for the soil pots as they are getting a little too much Nitrogen now. #2 hasn't missed a beat and took to her training without a hitch. The pics are from 3 days later and another re-pinning session. #3 Is doing well considering i snapped her 5th branch off so now have a quadline again. She is pinning out nicely now and I expect the next week to be the start of stretch so I will have to keep her moving to her set for flowering position. I am impressed with this strain so far and cannot wait till those purple shiny towers are looming. excellent work from Fast Buds. Roll on the next project !!!(watch this space for some pioneering fast buds future)

Week 2 has gone just as well as I'd like it too! I had an accident during the week where I had dropped a sticky bug trap on one of my girls, this led to me accidentally ripping off a fan leaf and a half, but she seems to have come out of it just fine! (Thankfully). I have been feeding 1/3 strength nutes the past few feeds, stepping it up from 1/4. I will be watering until I see runoff from now on to prevent nutrients from building up in the coco. Update(day 15, 4/12/20) Today I purchased a new oscillating fan, co2 bags and a new hygrometer that hooks up to my phone and shows me stats. The girls have been putting in a lot of work over the past 24 hours. I also had a Purple Punch photo seed sprout today which I may be turning into a mother plant. I will be starting a diary for this girl too. Update (Day 16 5/12/20) Second purple punch photo popped today, going to keep 1 inside and give the other to my mom to take care of. The girls got their first 1/4 dose of calmag today fed at 6ph due to all the nutrients settling there.( I do have ph +/- but I'm going to try run this whole grow at 5.8-6.2. Update (Day 17 6/12/20) Plants seem happy today. Fan leaves producing a the pre-existing nodes are starting to shoot out quite rapidly. Unfortunately, my streets power went out today for ~90 minutes, I opened the tent, windows and doors to get any light in I could, thankfully the power came back on shortly after. I fed the girls today with very little run-off(I'm trying to perfect the amount of water they need). Update (Day 18 7/12/20) The girls have jumped up over night! I wont be feeding today as I'd like the coco to dry out quite a bit more. Update (Day 19 8/12/20 Gave the girls a small feed today with very little run-off Everything seems to be going well so far, I'm very thankful! Update (day 20 9/12/20) Everything is going pretty well today. I will not be feeding as the increased humidity has kept the coco more moist than usual. Will be feeding full strength nutes tomorrow! Thanks for stopping by, HMU with any questions or tips you have.

Semana de transición cromática y formación de lindas porras. La nº6 sigue mostrando albinismo aunque parece que no aumenta de tamaño, se mantiene. subí los led 5ctms y parece que funcionó bastante bien. Entramos en una fase delicada por lo que añadí un deshumidificador que se enciende cuando se apagan los led. Más adelante añadiré otro ventilador y mantendré el deshumidificador las 24h. encendido.
