Day 43/56: Hi growmies. We are rolling along nicely with the flowering period of these Expert ladies. The Mimosa Lemon continues to look huge from a distance but like any political party , up close it doesn't have a lot of substance to it. I suppose the Mimosa will prove herself in a few weeks time unlike our political elite !. lol She is a beautiful lemony scent that is a sweet and not acidic aroma. Her flowers are single pods with pistils clearly visible jnstead of the usual melded in sacs pushing the white hairs we are used to seeing I think she will be a very potent lady and base that in how she is raatinf resin and oils so far she will be a pain to trim and dry with her possible finish but would be a perfect candidate for extractions. I have started her on the shogun Dragon force for the next part of their cycle and am hopeful of a good finish with her. Swell weeks ahead !. Glueberry has continued to get her groove on with some very nice sticky and fruity buds buried among the bushy girls frame. I do regret not doing a defol but she was in recovery from the underwatering I had been doing and would have been possibly stunted more She has such a sweet/diesel tune to her now amdnreminds me so much of her gg4 lineage ( personal ,desert island strain by choice.lol) She has a lot of growth within her small frame but getting light below decks is not easy with her bushiness. she will be an interesting yield hopefully. I have also now started their week using the Shogun Dragon force finisher. I do rate this product and their whole range and as a user for many years now , I had hoped they would sponsor a grow with a complete @shogunnutrients run. here's hoping!!!. lol The Dragon force will replace their normal feed for a week. it provides a boost to the usual slowing down period at the flowering cycles near end point. When fade out begins to show , it can re invigorate them with balanced ratios that this part of the cycle needs and stop the plant decimating her stores and power plant, fan leaves . There is nothing I find less attractive than a "2 week flushed" plant that really needed the green chlorophyll to help finish the push to survive. It can miss the beneficial oil and rescue attempt to keep her last flush and hope of survival , alive. We adopt many odd techniques that induce major stress at the near end of the cycle in the hope of creating a final push of thc and oil. Things like stem splitting or snapping the mains a few days before harvest to simulate an animal attempting to eat them. This product offers the same without the risk for me. So there we have it this update folks. A good week and only about 20 days to go . fingers crossed I keep mould at bay till then.

Hello and welcome to week 2 of veg phase for these five Epsilon F1 Hybrid ladies. Last week is now complete with daily updates and media so please check it out. For this week well frankly I am expecting massive growth. I have taken 3 fingered leaves from Normani today and five fingered from Ally. It takes more time to photo and diarise but it is rewarding to look back on! See you tomorrow! Day 9: Nothing to report. Sorry for lazy photos. Oh... I joined twitter @UnorthadoxDude Day 10: Fertigated 5l. Loving Ally's party hands 👈👉 Day 11: Normani has overtaken Ally as the tallest and largest plant. Dinah has overtaken Lauren in a similar fashion. All girls kooking good except for some odd marks here and there (see video). Today after the photos and video and when she was back in the tent. I took about 4 or 5 leaves off each girl. You'll see tomorrow. If you're here from Twitter, where I am also @UnorthadoxDude, please say hello in the comments! I've just joined and want to gauge if it is worth the time. Day 13: Heights: Ally 23cm Normani 28cm Lauren 24cm Dinah 19cm Camila 17cm The girls have begun stretching it seems. Day 14: Fertigated 5l and performed LST and defoliation. Normani height was 32cm. End of week summary: Huge week of growth and these ladies are only just getting started. The pheno difference of Dinah is stark but super interesting.

Orion F1 Organic dry amendments. She has grown well for the first time, after I topped her, she has taken to it very well. I topped the plant on the 14th. 😊 The leaves are looking a luscious, vibrant green. Overall, I'm very pleased with this recent progress. 14.6.25: I top dressed the plant today with the following amendments; ☆ 1 Tbs Ecothrive Life Cycle ☆ 1 Tbs Ecothrive Charge ☆ 1 Tbs Ground Cinnamon ☆ 1 Tbs Diatomaceous Earth ☆ 1.5 Cups Worm Castings. This will hopefully tide me over until the end of the month, when I will top dress again. I have just been watering with plain, dechlorinated water, PH'd to between 6.1-6.5. ☆ Xpert Nutrients PH down, up to 1ml. ☆ Ecothrive Neutralise 1 drop per litre from the 1ml pipette, which is attached. This is my dechlorinator. I'm watering approximately 2ltrs twice a week or as necessary. She has started to drink more. Thank you for checking out my diary and hanging out 😊💚✌️🍃🤞

Jetzt haben wir die Halbzeit erreicht, und die Werte sind wirklich super. In der Nachtphase liegen die Temperaturen konstant bei 24,5°C, mit einer Luftfeuchtigkeit von 61 %. Tagsüber steigen die Temperaturen auf über 27°C, bei ebenfalls 61 % Luftfeuchtigkeit. Diese Woche haben die Damen zum ersten Mal Green Sensation bekommen, und die Blüten werden immer fülliger und dicker. Wie im Video zu sehen ist, handelt es sich bei den Purple Lemonade um zwei verschiedene Phänotypen: Einer ist für den Cup , hat eine lila Farbe und wächst den Stängel entlang, während der andere grün ist und an der Spitze dicke Buds bildet. Was den Geruch betrifft, sind die beiden auch deutlich unterschiedlich: Die grüne Variante riecht zitroniger, während die Cup-Dame fruchtiger duftet.

Week 0 : Sixshooter Hawkbo says Six Shooter is one of the top Fast Buds Strains, so i'm like "yeah man might as well run me some of these, i do like my weed top of the shelf!" so here it is with the six shooter , bought these direct during one of Fast bud's promotions, 3+2 x2 for the price of one, so yeah that' s a good deal ! germinating 5 let's see how many i end up keeping, depends on the rest of the seeds too ! overnight in a glass of water with a few drops of my kelp extract , protect it from the light , the next day looks like some already cracked, putting it in the RQS propagator, dont use your fingers to manipulated activated seeds , cover with some dirt, cover the propagator with a blanket to protect it from light and keep the temperature up. Let's see ! within a day three had cracked the surface, one was all squiggly from being put upside down but within a day it has straightened out, the two last ones took 3 more days to crack the surface, i'm saving them and keeping them closeby in case i need to replace any of the planted seeds. Six shooter have been great genetrics so far, i transplanted three of them on day 4. see you next week for more updates !

👉 This year, RQS launched 5 new regular strains. The seeds are packed with10 pieces. 38 seeds out of 50 turned out beautiful (see my previous diaries). 👉 Before I put the plants into bloom, I took 2 cuttings from each plant. As soon as I knew which were the female plants, I deleted the male plants and the corresponding clones. 👉 Now I am going to raise the cuttings and flower the female plants in 5 new diaries. This diary is about the Exotic Witches # 1, # 2, # 4.

Day 56 - 29/05/2025 I'm considering this water as part of week 9 and did it fit the flush schedule correctly aligned with my required dates. As Mango Cream and Strawberry Cola 1 are going to the last couple weeks, I decided to start the flushing process over them. They already stopped the bulking phase and we concentrate the next weeks on terpenes and flavours development. Mango Cream buds are pretty dense like a rock. The Strawberry Cola has 70% of Mango Cream density. Pretty well too. I bought the Athena Fade to run a complete nutrient line following the Blended program + Fade. Let's see the results. On Strawberry Cola 2, as it's one week late because was one week later to soil, I keep following the feed chart as well. I reduced the NPK nutrients and increased the PK solution for bulking. By my schedules, I'll harvest Mango Cream and Strawberry Cola 1 at June 12th and Strawberry Cola 2 at June 19th. Let's keep progressing! 🌞 ~900ppfd 🌡️~27°C ⏬💧~50% 📏 45cm distância Mango Cream 3,5L RO water with 12ml of Athena PK + 12ml of Athena Fade + 5ml of Athena Cleanse EC 1.7 PH 6.2 EC Run Off 3.4 Strawberry Cola 1 3,5L RO water with 13ml of Athena PK + 11ml of Athena Fade + 5ml of Athena Cleanse EC 1.7 PH 6.0 EC Run Off 4.4 Strawberry Cola 2 3,5L RO water with 5+5ml Athena Bloom B+A + 11ml of Athena PK + 4ml of Athena CaMg + 5ml of Athena Cleanse EC 2.0 PH 6.2 EC Run Off 2.9 This week is working in progress and should be updated as soon as possible they growth. Day 59 - 01/06/2025 They are going so well and smelling like crazy. The last couple days my city was impacted by a heat wave and the temperature increased as fuck. I needed to remove the carbon filter to improve the air extraction. They are super frosty and I'm anxious to harvest them. It's planned for 12th June and the late Strawberry Cola for 19th. I was roughly enjoy a hangover when I was watering them and I watered with week nutes schedule. My fault, so bad. But hopefully they will hold until next watering where I should water only with 1/5 of schedule just to not strip the nutrientes from the soil and maintain the flush schedule reducing nutrients. Let's keep progressing! 🌞 ~900ppfd 🌡️~27°C 💧~50% 📏 45cm distância Mango Cream 3,5L RO water with 12ml of Athena PK + 12ml of Athena Fade + 5ml of Athena Cleanse EC 1.8 PH 6.0 EC Run Off 4.5 Strawberry Cola 1 3,5L RO water with 12ml of Athena PK + 12ml of Athena Fade + 5ml of Athena Cleanse EC 1.8 PH 6.0 EC Run Off 4.7 Strawberry Cola 2 3,5L RO water with 5+5ml Athena Bloom B+A + 12ml of Athena PK + 5ml of Athena CaMg + 5ml of Athena Cleanse EC 2.1 PH 6.0 EC Run Off - 6.7 (It's weird) I don't know why I got this run off EC, it doesn't make sense due the previous EC Run Off. forgot to clean the tray and I think there was minerals solidified because I got 6.7 on run off. But let's keep following it. This week is working in progress and should be updated as soon as possible they growth. Cheers! 🍁🤞🏽

11 mars Tous va bien ! Juste la "Lemon Garlic Og" qui montre signes de un peu trop d'engrais sur le bout des feuilles.(pourtant j'ai arrêté l'engrais bloom en mineral pour le passé en organic) Sinon elles vont bien ! Elles sont un peu fine, ça manque de volume (je vais remédier à ça en ajoutant du "PK" d'ici 1 a 2 semaines). J'ai posté 2 vidéos et des photos de chaques variétés. Sinon j'ai pas grand choses à dire. Ca brille-brille, ça sent bon ! C'est sur la bonne voie pour une jolie floraison !

I started to scrog The Church (left side of the closet). I topped the plants after the fourth node. Of the 4 Churches, I didn't properly top two of them. These two are looking like they are developing the main cola as well as the two side colas equally, so it seems there are three of them. Serious 6 is growing slowly. Two of the plants are staying small and scrawny. I'm wondering if that is the phenotype or if I messed up. And to top it all of, there was an accident with the Autopots :-(( This is the second time it happened in my AP system: The float gauges in one of the trays got stuck and the water kept flowing. The tray overflowed and the water ran all over my wooden floor. This also happened at night and I only discovered it the next morning. Luckily, the float became unstock at one point of time and the waterflow stopped. If it hadn't, 30 Liters of water in my tank would have caused serious issues. I was going to start the 12/12 flowering cycle next week, but looking at the Serious 6s I will postpone it by at least another week. That way the Church can scrog longer and I assume won't fill up the net as quickly as Serious 6 anyway, since it more bushy compared to the Serious 6 sativas.

Stopped feeding this week. I'm pretty sure they should be ready to chop in a week or 2. I hate looking at them with my microscope so I've gotten pretty good a judging when they are finished. I love ILGM. They always come thru with solid genetics!!

💚 ORION LIQUID NUTRIENTS 💜 This is a clear example of me absolutely underestimating the nutrient need when using only liquid nutrients. The plant, as a result, has really not grown as this in comparison with the 💚ORION F1 ORGANIC DRY AMENDMENTS* 💚 Which has been topped and grown 3 times the size of this one! I topped this plant on the 20.6.25. Here is what I fed this week: 19.6.25: I watered with 2L of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.1 and containing the following nutrients per 2 litres; ♡ 1/3 Cal-Mag ♡ 1/3 Mega Crop Part B ♡ 1/3 Tsp Mega Crop Part A by Greenleaf Nutrients PH: 6.1 PPM: 891 26.6.25 I gave 2ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.6 with the following nutrients per 2ltrs; ♡ 2 ml Ecothrive Trace ♡ 1 Tsp Ecothrive Biosys PPM: 811 PH: 6.6 Thanks for stopping by this week 💚✌️🍃😊🌱

Dqy 14 Flowering:: Hi all. The ladies are really well now and all are in flower The stretch is on now too with 3 of the girls.#4 is only at 7 days flower so i expect she will stretch this week. #2 is fairly wide node lengths with buds atop and along each lanky stem having clusters of flowers forming. #3 is very similar to #2 in that respect , except her buds are golf ball forming already. They are now on lower doses of Megacrop at 8g/10L water. I have also added 10ml calmag, 10ml Shogun pk warrior 9/18. I will be doing a defol at day 21 to lose the business of their appearance. so far all the tips are visible in light so not too much of an issue but I want to be sure the lowers that will be kept , are worthy of the rescue. So far still little warriors , let's hope the flowering stretch helps them get very busy. Be safe and well grownies.

Growing pretty well so far. I'm excited for this to be a good daytime strain to keep me motivated, in a good mood and hopefully not anxious. She'll be going outside so I'm strengthening her stem so she'll be able to handle outdoor stresses.

--- ## **The Teresa Palmer Experiments** ### **Week of 20–25 May 2025 | Vegetation Ends, Flower Begins** --- ### **20/05/2025 – Lights On** **Last week of veg for MS and TF.** Lights 20/05/2025 Lights On! Last week of vegetation for MS n TF fingers crossed lol Lights dimmed back to 320watts, slite cannoing. The Clones are in cynogentics; slowing things up! Opened up a few more air holes. Sprayed with a weak solution of HPFG 0.05% All looks okay! "Few more days and the "infection leakage/cancer" the infection literally runs away from Hydrogen Peroxide Food-Grade treatment and leaves the blood brain barrier" Healing with no-scars! Me and the plants are healing well! Segwaying! Lights Off MS is still looking saggy curly after the transplanting into fresh rockcubes. Turned light back down to 300watts. The Clones are doing okay after the weak sprayed solution of 0.05% HPFG. TF is looking vibrant in Quarantine and has recovered from Septoria tritici, she took 1 week longer than MS to show signs of recovery and the transplantion short. Maybe TF; her resilience or immune system isn't as strong: due to her breeders problems picking the best Genetics. Who knows! Midday: Great; here’s a **kombucha-based microbial tea recipe** specifically designed to benefit cannabis plants (especially during **veg and early flower**) while being safe and effective. This tea boosts root health, improves nutrient uptake, and strengthens the plant's immune system. --- ### **Kombucha Microbial Tea Recipe for Cannabis (Veg & Early Flower)** #### **Ingredients:** * **Non-flavored raw kombucha**: 30–50 ml (2–3 tbsp) * **Unsulfured molasses (blackstrap)**: 1 tsp * **Worm castings or high-quality compost**: 1 cup * **Unchlorinated water**: 2–4 liters * *(Optional: 1 tsp kelp meal or liquid seaweed for added minerals)* #### **Instructions:** 1. **Fill a bucket** with 2–4 liters of dechlorinated water. 2. **Add the worm castings or compost** into a mesh bag or stocking and submerge it. 3. **Add the kombucha** and molasses to the water. 4. **Aerate the mixture** using an aquarium air pump and stone for **24 hours** (no more than 36 hours). * This activates beneficial microbes and keeps anaerobic bacteria away. 5. **Strain and apply** immediately after brewing. #### **How to Use:** * **Soil or Coco Drench:** Use once every 1–2 weeks during veg or early flower. * **Hydroponic Drip/Reservoir:** Only use filtered tea (strain well) and **add at a 1:20 dilution** (e.g., 250 ml tea per 5L reservoir). Ensure high aeration. * **Foliar Spray (Optional):** Dilute 1:30 and spray during early morning or lights-off time. --- ### **Tips:** * Don't store the tea — use it fresh. * Avoid using in late flower to prevent unwanted microbial growth on buds. * Always monitor pH and reservoir cleanliness if used in hydro. = = = = = = " I used 50ml of diluted mother juices from the SCOOBY 50ml to 15ltres?Will this be beneficial enough at that ratio? " You're welcome! Using **50 ml of diluted mother liquid from a SCOBY (Symbiotic Culture Of Bacteria and Yeast)** into **15 liters** of hydroponic nutrient solution is a **gentle, safe starting point** — and yes, it can still offer **beneficial microbial effects** without overwhelming your system. ### Here's what you can expect at that ratio (1:300 dilution): #### **Potential Benefits:** * **Mild microbial boost**: Helps seed your root zone with beneficial bacteria and yeasts, supporting plant immunity and nutrient cycling. * **Low risk**: Very unlikely to disturb pH or oxygen levels in hydro at that concentration. * **Safe introduction**: Ideal for testing how your plants and system respond before increasing doses or brewing a full compost tea. ### A few tips for best results: * **Add during veg or early flower** for best microbial integration. * **Monitor water clarity and root color** over the next few days — healthy roots should remain white or light tan, and the water should stay mostly clear. * **Smell test**: If the reservoir develops a strong sour or funky smell (like vinegar or yeast), it could indicate overgrowth. In that case, do a partial flush. ### Is it “beneficial enough”? Yes — as a **microbial nudge**, it’s a great start. For stronger biological impact, you can brew a tea like the one I mentioned earlier, but what you did is safe and should offer mild support without disrupting the balance. = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 21/05/2025 TF and MS are responding beautifully to the 50ml kombucha infusion — their energy is shifting. I gave them a gentle foliar mist today, using a diluted H₂O₂ solution at 0.05%. The lights are on… and so are they. So am I. "There is so much quiet power in the act of letting go." I refused to abandon these plant experiments, even when the signs were uncertain, even when growth was slow. And now — they’re beginning to thrive. It’s humbling, and it’s deeply affirming. When I got sick and chose to continue my healing journey, many people — even family — stepped back. Some gave up on me. But I didn’t. I chose not to drown in pity. I chose to believe in the process. I chose to stay with myself — and now, just like my plants, I’m beginning to bloom. It’s a good feeling. A quiet victory. A sacred one. To be honest; i can't wait to smoke the "Jesus out of these. No chicken eggs to count. All is good amd all is swell! --- **Sacred Grow Log – 21/05/2025** **Lights Off – Silence Speaks** Today, the garden sleeps — and so does the surface, while the unseen stirs beneath. I’ve increased all nutrients to **veg-phase strength** — the plants have called for more, and I’ve answered. There’s a slight wilting in their posture, and whispers of calcium-magnesium imbalance, like a subtle signal from deep within their cells. It's a language you learn to read with time… like decoding ancient symphonies written in chlorophyll and veins. I moved things around today. Shifted the layout. Rearranged not just space — but energy. **TF’s branches have been folded inward** — a ritual of redirection, bending her into a **Freaky Bonsai form**, compact and deliberate. She's not broken — only reshaped. Like fate twisting its limbs to adapt, to survive, to transcend the ordinary. There’s a strange beauty in distortion. Sometimes the most powerful growth is born through the unnatural — when chaos becomes art. Nothing in this garden is random. Even the smallest change is a spell cast — and I'm both the scribe and the vessel. --- Here’s your journal entry reworded for YouTube, keeping it reflective and engaging, while staying within community guidelines and adding a hint of poetic insight: --- 22/05/2025** **Lights On The Garden Awakens** The plants are responding beautifully to the kombucha; straight from the mother culture. It’s sharp, alive… almost like vinegar, full of life. There’s a distinct energy shift in the room: subtle but unmistakable. I’ve considered building a simple setup to start brewing a living tea with worm castings and other natural inputs. But I’m holding off; we’re only about halfway through this grow cycles. Timing matters, and introducing live cultures too deep into the flowering stage could unsettle the balance, especially with pH fluctuations. It’s a delicate dance. Let's get it right now in small stages. For now, I’ve added another **50ml dose** — just enough to stir the microbial world without tipping the scales. The plants speak in posture and pulse: and today, their message is clear: *they’re grateful*. --- **"I’m glad some people still read. Really read. Not just skim for a reaction or scroll for the drama. But sit with the words Feel the space between the lines Catch the meaning that isn’t yelling for attention. In a world where folks jump quick, Where bandwagons fill fast, Where opinions echo louder than understanding It’s rare to find minds that pause. Minds that ask, *'Is this truth? Or just noise dressed as truth?'* Minds that don’t just follow faults… But look for foundation. So shout out to the ones who read before reacting, Who think before typing, Who question the easy answers. Because awareness like that — It ain’t loud, But it’s powerful."** When we are at our lowest; We are often alone that's where inner strength the fight to keep pushing When we are at our lowest; We are alone 😔 The fight continues on; The weather keeps thrashing But in my blood the ions now fire Recovery dwells as cancer expires!

I wasn’t aiming for it, but the first thing to disappear? Dandruff. Gone. Just like that. See, most people don’t know; Dandruff isn’t just dry skin. It’s a dance of micro-parasites, feeding off the mites that live on your skin — a layered ecosystem most don’t see, but I felt it. I lived it. Some might call it a coincidence, but when I brought oxygen into the equation, those organisms couldn’t hold space anymore. Modern academics might describe them as cousins to scabies; a miniature model of parasitic behavior. But I call it a quiet cleanse.

She promised the world—balanced feeds, clean roots, whispers of a new era—but lately, she’s smelled a bit “off” (literally and metaphorically). Plants were talking. Leaves started showing those tell-tale chlorotic freckles—like a pixelated disease creeping across their emerald faces. **CalMag? More like CalMaybe.** I sniffed the stock bottle—yup, something fermented this way came. That bottle’s been shelf-sitting too long and probably died quietly while I was looking at trichomes. Poor thing. So what did I do? **Flushed the whole system**—cleansed the sinuses of the root zone with pH’d water like a hydro colonic—and gave them something they’ve been secretly craving: **Advanced Nutrients Bloom A+B**. The girls perked up like they'd just had their first espresso in weeks. Now, here’s where it gets interesting: This wasn’t just a feeding adjustment, it was a **nutrient resurrection**. To tackle the mag deficiency, I’m planning a soft foliar CalMag mist (0.5ml/L) and possibly a micro dose of **Epsom salts** in the reservoir—keep it simple, sulfate sharp. **Observations:** * Interveinal yellowing? Present. * Freckled spotting? Yup. * New growth still pushing strong? Absolutely. * Spirits? Weirdly high. Like a fog's lifted. --- **The Teresa Palmer Side Note:** Every flush I do, I imagine my own system being purged. The metaphor writes itself. Plants, like people, need time to detox and start over. And just like me, these girls are bouncing back stronger with a new protocol, clean lines, and renewed light. --- **Side note: Teresa Palmer is now spread eagled - slite pruning of under growth to help her upper top shine - I love the smell of freshly cut leaves/flowers 💐 you know what I mean? Yeah; you know what I mean 😏 P.s all the running I've been doing lately; i need a plunge in a ice bath and some magnesium myself! Knots in my right thigh! Nothing worse! 'I have no monsters in my closet; just weed' ''It's got to be; one of the cleanist magnesium deficiencies i have ever seen; at least it has that going for it'' - Hey man; you seem slightly insecure today! - than normal! I'm on my own dying! - Dying of Laughter i bet; but that's also true; being on the edge of life; makes one crack-up. What if 'this is it' ? - suddenly anxiety doesn't exist anymore; just like' Michael Jackson - ''This is it''...... - here i stand...., i'm in the light of the world............................... i feel grand......and this hope......., that i feel......, yes i know, yes for-sure that is real............. I never told....... a real word... about you; to no-one, being in the light, isn't my plan....., but if this boat..... has to sink......, then who-cares what i do, never-mind what i think! .......- I'm spilling my heart out to help you........, but i don't see no-hands...........because i am alone,......but i am not lonely........i have me......... the good company, its just me. - In This world isn't one of 'Harry Porter', no magic script to follow; i have to find my own way in health and healing and i sure do not trust the governments way of appealing, for money for healing, to make you ill again, while reeling, the money pit, they sit and print the money,...l. so ask yourself; what are they appealing? Booom! it have in constantly in the spot-light, everyday on the news, adverts, you see it everywhere? ...everywhere like bacteria and parasites jumping hitchhikes on fungicides that changes the molecule structure of DNA! The end is near! ////////////////////////////////// //////////////////////////____ **Entry Title:** *Teresa Palmer Enters Flower — Riding the Transition* **Date:** 26/05/2025 **Grow Phase:** Early Flower (Transition) **Medium:** Hydro (Recirculating) **Treatments:** Hydrogen Peroxide Pre-Soak, Organic Feed Transition, Environmental Reset --- **Diary Entry:** **Lights On!** The morning greeted a garden in recovery. The new **organic feed** is settling in well—plants are responding with signs of revival. The leaf stress is stabilizing, and new growth has a spring to it. Everything feels like it's leaning toward the light again. **Monkey Slapz (MS):** The light intensity has been nudged up to **420 watts**. MS is looking dense and bushy now. We’ve officially entered the **transition to flower**, though she’s taking her sweet time with the flip—deliberate, cautious. We’re helping the process along by **reducing light exposure by 1 hour daily**—a gentle nudge into bloom. **The Clones:** The baby clones are flashing fresh signs of growth. Once they gain a bit more strength, they’ll head back into **cyanogenics/propagation** for preservation. If all goes well, this cohort should be enough to fuel **next year’s entire grow cycle**. (Yes, we plan ahead—and we clone for a reason!) **Observations:** * Signs of feed uptake and bounce-back across all strains * MS is bushy and stable; light reduction in effect * Clones recovering well; root development expected next --- **The Teresa Palmer Side Note:** Reinvention doesn’t always look flashy—it’s often slow, hidden in the rhythm of light shifts and silent cell growth. We’re in transition. And like the plants, I’ve learned: the slow bloom is often the strongest. Let’s grow. --- 26/05/2025 Just making it clear for people! Its Ai edited not Ai creativity! タイザー = Tai-za - Tizer My new dogs name! /////////////////////////////////////////////// Some HIStory on TF: Gorilla Glue #4 Marijuana Strain 4.6 356 votes| 238 reviews Strain Information Indica Dominant Hybrid Strain Indica Dominant Hybrid - 60% Indica / 40% Sativa THC: 32% Gorilla Glue #4, also known as “Original Glue,” “Gorilla Glue” or “GG#4,” is a slightly indica dominant hybrid strain (60% indica/40% sativa) created through crossing the infamous Chem's Sister X Sour Dubb X Chocolate Diesel strains. This celebrity strain is a favorite of patients and breeders around the world for its super heavy effects and long-lasting high that will totally knock you flat out. The high comes on with a building effect, slowly filling your mind with a lifted euphoria and light creative energy. As your mind lifts higher and higher into happiness, an almost glue-like sense will kick in, leaving you mentally stuck in this blissful state and without a care in the world. This effect will soon spread throughout the rest of your body, leaving you hopelessly couch-locked and immovable for hours on end. With these hard-hitting effects and its super high 18-32% average THC level, Gorilla Glue #4 is often said to be perfect for treating ADD or ADHD, Bipolar Disorder, chronic pain, depression, chronic fatigue, insomnia, appetite loss or nausea and migraines or headaches. This bud has a spicy chemical chocolate flavor with a heavily diesel exhale that turns slightly sweet the more that you toke. The aroma follows the same profile, although with a heavy peppery pungency to it, too. Gorilla Glue #4 buds have small rounded forest green nugs with furry amber hairs and a coating of tiny amber-tinted white crystal trichomes that are dripping with sweet sticky resin. --- Conclusion: My anszwer Much to my surprise, the first time I tried this strain, it *absolutely reeked* — duct tape, wood glue, and that unmistakable Gorilla Glue funk. It even left that tacky residue on my fingertips, like what you’d get after peeling off heavy-duty duct tape. The taste is just as intense: a peppery, chemical-laced chocolate diesel blast that clings to the throat, often leaving me coughing and a little phlegmy. The air it leaves behind is thick with that old-school, nose-wrinkling stank. It’s unapologetically loud. This is *Back to the Future #2* by Tastebudz — a feminized strain created by going “back in time,” tracing the genetic lineage of *Future #1*, and selecting parent strains that expressed the most desirable traits: rich terpene profiles, potent effects, resilient structure, and heavy resin production. The result is a carefully bred evolution — forward-thinking, but deeply rooted in powerful old-school genetics. But here’s the real story: *this is the only strain I’ve ever tried that actually helps me run*. And I mean that literally — I use it to aid my running routines. It’s become essential to my treatment plan for brain cancer. I live with chronic nerve pain, inflammation, and a heavy, oppressive mental fog that can make even walking feel like wading through static. This strain? It clears the storm. While it knocks most people out, for me, it *activates*. It doesn’t just dull pain — it opens up a space in my head where I can *move*. Without it, I honestly don’t think I could run at all. With it, I can lace up, breathe, and push through the haze. Mentally, it flattens the chaos — that frantic, scattered, ADHD-like static that’s always buzzing. It gives me calm, clarity, and a softened edge on the pain. And physically, it lets me break through barriers I wouldn’t otherwise reach. In small to moderate amounts throughout the day, it doesn’t sedate — it *liberates*. I don’t use it to get high — I use it to *show up*, to train, to fight back against something that’s trying to slow me down. It’s stony, yes. It’s intense. But for me, it’s also the cleanest clarity I’ve ever found in this battle — and easily one of the most important strains I’ve ever encountered. Not just a favorite — a lifeline.
