***Note that I started to count the days when I placed the seeds between paper towels. The seeds were planted 3 days later and sprouted from the ground 2 days after being planted. D80 (13/05/2021): I'm looking at the trichomes every other days. Glue Gelato is starting to show amber on top buds. No amber for Banana Kush and Gelato. This time I will chop them all at the same time so the one I will rely on is the Glue Gelato. As soon as she is ready, I will harvest them all. Banana Kush and Gelato would probably need more, but in term of logistic, I need to harvest all my plants at the same time. D83 (16/05/2021): Not ready yet. I'm checking trichomes closely! 😬 - Light: the lights are at 100% and at 12 inch form the plants. - Temperature: during the day: 24-25C ; during the night: 20C. - Humidity: the humidity is maintain around 46-48% all the time. - Air circulation: There is an oscillating fan on the ground, one fixed fan pointing on top of the canopy and one fixed fan to help cool the lights. - Water: I gave water every other day or when the ground feel dry or the pots feels light. - ***IPM: I never mention it but I'm using nematodes pouch as an integrated pest management. I had trouble with pest in my first grow and I learned from it. That's the only thing I do for pest and of course watching closely and regularly at my plants 😊

Eccoci qui... Tutto va per il meglio, questa settimana si inizia a vedere la resina e ora si inizieranno a formare le cime, per questo aggiungo Sugar Shot di @xpertnutrients vedremo l'evoluzione settimana prossima. Come potete vedere nel complesso tutto va alla grande e c'è un odore nella stanza davvero troppo ed uno strato di resina che sembra zucchero a velo sono davvero molto molto curioso di vedere tutto quello che ne uscirà fuori... Grazie a tutti per il supporto🔥🌲❤️

Switched to flower nutes too early. Back to full strength terp tea grow 711. Atleast for the next 2 weeks, maybe less. 5/1/24 Plant is stretching now. FYI just to clarify, I switched lights to 12/12 on 4/20 but I am considering her being in veg still until I see more pistils. Probably the end of this week. After a 2 week transition period 5/3 2 days later and I need to get my damn camera in the tent! This stretch is starting to look like nursery explained. She’s supposed to triple in size. I thought I tied her down too much and she would stay short. I swear she’s grown an inch over night. Starting to dominate the tent. Literally 2 days ago, I said that I didn’t consider this week to be flower and still the transition phase. Now she looks like she’s fully in the flowering phase. She’s beautiful and I’ve been impressed since veg. Since I chose her as a clone I liked the way she was. Hoping she follows through🌱💚

🗓️ 9° WEEK FLO // DAY 57-63 (from switch) // DAY 141-147 (from the sprout) ⚡ Light: 40 cm / 200 watt. Due the high temperature, I set my controller on 29° C max. So the Tent-X dimmed the light to keep my grow-box in the right range; ⌛ Schedule: 12/12; 🌡️ 29.5° C - 65% RH average; 📑 PH 5.7 - EC 1.8; 🌱 Trichomes mostly cloudy, ripening blend is working well; ⚙️ Fans, extractor and pump ON 24/0. No dehumidifier.

Day 57:. I am in love with these ladies !!. Their growth had been excellent this week. I went in hard with a defol and clearing out of smaller growth to get the girls spread for flipping soon. They recovered overnight and all sat praying to the Mars gods the next morning. I gave all the pots a top dress of ecothrive charge to work it's way in. The colour and vitality on all of these plants is spot on. They are putting a good size on every couple of days so I dont think I will get much longer before I have to flip them. I am excited to see how they perform in flower now my room is on point now too. Be safe and well folks.

And here we go into flowering week seven. The buds are looking impressive by now. I feel like they're starting to bulk up - hopefully, those internodal gaps fill in nicely. Temperature and humidity are stable. I aim for 25°C during the day, and at night, it drops to around 21.5–22°C. Humidity stays between 45–50%. I could probably lower it further, but that would make things too hot, so I trust my airflow and ventilation instead. On day 70, I noticed a couple of leaves showing early ‘autumn colors.’ I’m curious how much longer this will take. Plagron additives like Sugar Royale, Power Buds, and Green Sensation are said to accelerate ripening. DNA Genetics suggests 9–10 weeks of flowering, so it’s getting exciting. Amber trichomes are a must for this Kush diva! 😉 Some parts of the plant seem to be purpling! That’s interesting since nights aren’t particularly cold. Could it be phosphate-related? Light stress? Just the strain? The smell is changing more and more towards citrus - like a ‘sharp, earthy lemon.’ It almost reminds me of a wood polish! 😄 I'm gradually removing any drying leaves at the bottom, but other than that, there’s not much to do - just watering, keeping an eye on temp and humidity, and relaxing. See you soon!

Flowering Week 20: Structural Surprises & Purple Promises Update: 28.07.2025 | Day 143 Hey Growmies, Apologies for the radio silence! Between vacation and kid adventures, the diary took a backseat. But the ladies? They’ve been busy. Here’s the catch-up: Emergency Support Mission - Durban’s weight crisis: Side branches cracked under their own mass – one even split the main stem! - Field fix: Stabilized with 4 stakes + speaker wire (ugly but effective). - Lesson learned: Next run = heavy-duty support before stretch. Strain Check: Durban Poison (African Queen) - Growth style: Less height (expected 2m+), more lateral explosion – new shoots daily make her look like 3 plants in one. - Flower status: White pistils stacking at branch tips. - Smell: Still discreet (neighbor-safe… for now). - Health: Vibrant green – zero stress signs. Blueberry - Surprise stretch: Nearly hit 2m (like a sativa!). Half Durban’s width but elegant. - Stem power: Thicker trunk than Durban – mini-tree status. - Color preview: Purple stems emerging! Buds may follow suit (fingers crossed). - Support needed: Prepping for heavy buds to avoid branch snaps. Care & Environment - Feeding: Pure Bokashi juice (no extras) – they’re thriving on it. - Pests/mold: None spotted. Dry summer helping. - Weather: About 20° C and really high humidity. Next Steps - Build 4-stake + twine support grid (multiple height tiers). - Monitor Durban’s odor spike as flowering advances. - Pray to the mold gods for a dry autumn (purple buds = mold camouflage). Week 20 Takeaway Never underestimate the weight of the branches and the effect of a little strom. I could possible fuck up my grow. Alright folks, as always: Catch y’all next week – no more hiatuses! – Smoking_Joe_Frazier

Rich colors. Too few sun for good ripening. Nice open structure Not very smelly but a Zkittlez (fruity sweet) smell + taste developed during curing. 30g = 30g good buds + much trim. “And now his watch is ended.” — Night’s Watch Funeral Rite edit: infused butter pictures. Put all my leftovers, pressed, bad hash together. ~120g per bar. I took 1 bar for 22 Muffins. Half a muffin = good night for 6-8 hours.😂

Week 7 update (start of flowering): The autos have officially entered early flower – pistils are popping everywhere, and the stretch is slowing down. The canopy is already pretty filled, so I’m focusing now on feeding for bloom. Nutrients this week: • Terra Aquatica Grow A + Grow B → lowered slightly as plants shift into flower (~650–750 ppm). • PK booster added for the first time to support early bud development. • CalMag still at 1 ml/L to keep leaves healthy and prevent deficiencies. • Silic Rock 1 ml/L for stronger stems. • Microbes (Great White + Trikologic) to keep roots active. Training: • Final round of LST to open budsites before flowers set fully. • Light defoliation on big fan leaves shading potential bud areas. • No more heavy stress training – from now on just guiding. Observations: • Runtz is clearly leading with stronger bud formation, pistils are already stacking. • Amnesia autos are slightly slower but catching up. • Mike Tyson is still behind (due to earlier overfeeding) but slowly recovering. • Plants are smelling more day by day – fruity and sweet terps are starting to come out. Plan: • Keep PK booster in rotation. • Watch EC/PPM carefully (don’t push too hard – better to underfeed than burn at this stage). • Prepare for rapid bud growth in weeks 8–9.

Using some Neem oil and hydrogen peroxide ONLY ON MEDIUM (since I'm in flower), to get rid of these dumb fungus gnats I think they are the reason for the brown spots forming on the leaves. Installed a trellis this week to help spread out the canopy and improve airflow, however when I did this my dumbass accidentally snapped one of the colas, luckily I think it'll be ok because it seems to have only snapped the outer skin layer on only one side of that stem (I wrapped a piece of duct tape around the little snap to help secure it). This week went well I think I've got the fungus gnats under control, the stem I partially snapped still looks to be completely healthy and growing well so no complaints here successful 2nd week of flower👍🏾

On February 6th, I transplanted clone into a 7 gallon fabric pot. I put 70 cups of Ocean Forest in, then placed clone (still in pot), in the center of 7 gallon fabric pot, then filled the rest of the pot up with Happy Frog. Before I transplanted, I sprinkled Great White in transplant area.
