# Chem Brulee by Zamnesia | Pheno A 🌱🔥🍮 ## Germination Week | The First Chapter Hello GrowDiaries family! 👋🌱 Welcome to another new journey. As mentioned in the previous diaries, I've recently adjusted the way I document my grows. Due to the current photo limitations on GrowDiaries, each phenotype now receives its own dedicated diary rather than grouping multiple plants together in a single journal. This allows me to continue documenting every stage of development in as much detail as possible while selecting the best photographs from each week. The objective remains exactly the same as always: To create a complete educational record from seed to harvest, sharing observations, lessons learned, successes, mistakes, and everything in between. Today, we begin following Chem Brulee Pheno A. --- ## Every Seed Carries a Story One of the things I love most about growing is that every run starts the same way. A tiny seed. A hidden genetic blueprint. And an entire journey waiting to unfold. For this run, we're following Chem Brulee from Zamnesia Seeds, cultivated under a 12/12 from seed schedule from the very first day of life. A method that is a little different from what most growers choose, but one that has become part of my own cultivation style over time. Throughout this diary, I'll do my best to explain not only what I'm doing, but also why I'm doing it, allowing anyone interested to follow the process from beginning to end. Every phenotype is unique. Every plant teaches something. And every run helps us become better growers. --- ## Germination Using the Cannakan System To begin this run, I used the Cannakan germination system. For those unfamiliar with it, the Cannakan is a compartmentalized germination container that allows multiple cultivars to be organized separately while maintaining a stable environment. Each section can be individually labeled, making it extremely practical when working with several genetics simultaneously. The seeds were placed inside using only plain water. No nutrients. No additives. No stimulants. Just water. Within approximately 24 hours healthy taproots had already emerged, and the seeds were ready for the next stage. Fast. Simple. Clean. Exactly what we hope to see during germination. --- ## Why Only Water? A question that often appears during germination is: "Why not feed the seedlings immediately?" The answer is simple. The seed already contains everything required for its first days of life. Nature packed all the energy reserves necessary for the plant to establish itself and begin developing roots. At this stage, I personally prefer allowing the seed to do exactly what it was designed to do. The objective is not to feed the plant. The objective is simply to wake it up. Water is enough. --- ## First Experience With Coco Starter Plugs This run also marks my first experience using coco starter plugs. The plugs were fully saturated with water and then gently squeezed to remove excess moisture while maintaining a healthy balance between water retention and oxygen availability. The germinated seeds were carefully inserted into the plugs and placed inside a humidity dome. The dome remained useful for only a short period. In less than 24 hours the seedlings had already emerged and were ready to continue their journey. At that point, they were transplanted directly into small containers filled with Plagron Lightmix. --- ## Environment Environmental conditions were intentionally kept simple. Temperatures remained around 26–27°C. Humidity was maintained between approximately 65–70% using a Spider Farmer humidifier. While many growers prefer keeping seedlings inside a dome for longer periods, I personally like introducing them relatively early to the environment they will actually experience during growth. The idea is adaptation rather than dependence. Airflow remains extremely gentle at this stage. Just enough movement to keep fresh air circulating without creating unnecessary stress for young seedlings. --- ## Heat Mat Temperatures The propagation mat was running around 40°C. Although this number may initially appear high, the heat source itself must operate above the desired root-zone temperature in order to compensate for environmental losses and maintain stable conditions where the roots are actually developing. The goal is not to expose the seedlings directly to excessive heat. The goal is to create a warm, stable rooting environment that encourages fast and healthy germination. --- ## Lighting Lighting during germination is intentionally soft. Young seedlings simply do not require intense light levels yet. The goal is healthy establishment rather than aggressive growth. Once properly settled, these girls will move under the Future Of Grow Black Series 600W full-spectrum LED system where the real adventure begins. We'll begin discussing PPFD and light intensity in more detail during the coming weeks as the plants become capable of utilizing stronger light levels effectively. --- ## First Observations So far, everything is progressing exactly as hoped. Fast germination. Healthy taproots. Strong emergence. Good vigor. Healthy color. And perhaps most importantly: A strong beginning. At this stage, every plant remains a mystery waiting to reveal itself. And honestly, that mystery is part of what makes growing so rewarding. No matter how many seeds we start, each one still carries the potential to surprise us. --- ## Looking Ahead Over the next weeks we will begin following Chem Brulee Pheno A through the first stages of development. We'll explore: - Root establishment - Early structure - Environmental management - Watering strategies - Light intensity - Growth observations - And whatever unique characteristics this phenotype decides to reveal Because every grow starts with a seed, but no two journeys are ever exactly the same. This is only the first chapter. Huge thanks to Zamnesia Seeds for the genetics, Plagron for the substrate and nutrition, Future Of Grow for the lighting, and everyone following along on another new adventure. Grower's Love everyone. 🌱💚

Eccoci qui... Siamo quasi alla fine del cultivo, odore, resina e colore ci sono. Attendiamo solo la maturazione delle cime che richiederà 1 settimana.... NON VEDO L'ORAAAA... Seguiranno aggiornamenti, grazie a tutti per il supporto🔥🌲❤️

​Verehrte Chronisten des grünen Treibens im Hause Borberad! Diesmal wagen wir uns an einen wahren Sprinter der feminisierten Cannabissorten: Cannabis indica L. var. Candy Cream Go Fast aus den geschätzten Händen der Genetiker von Kannabia Seeds. ​Bereiten euch auf eine weitere tiefgreifende und süße Untersuchung des pflanzlichen Wachstums vor. Unsere bewährte Methodik der fast täglichen Bilddokumentation und sporadischen Videoanalysen wird auch bei diesem Exemplar, wohlgebettet in unserer standardisierten Erdmischung zum Einsatz kommen. Wir werden Zeuge der Entwicklung einer Pflanze, deren Name bereits ein außergewöhnliches Aroma und damit ihre – sagen wir mal – 'süße Verführungskraft' verspricht. Verfolget mit uns, wie sich diese 'Zuckercreme' im Rekordtempo entfaltet und welche duftenden Herausforderungen uns Borberads bei ihrer Aufzucht erwarten. ​Detaillierte Sortenbeschreibung: Kannabia Seeds Candy Cream Go Fast ​Genetik: Candy Cream Go Fast ist das beeindruckende Resultat einer gezielten Kreuzung von Indica Cream und Auto Indica Cream. Diese zu 60 % indicadominante Melange besticht durch eine drastisch verkürzte Blütezeit (Fast-Version), ohne dabei auf die bewährten Charakteristika ihrer Cream-Familie zu verzichten. ​Größe: Im Innenbereich erwarten wir für die Candy Cream eine kompakte Wuchshöhe von etwa 80 bis 100 Zentimetern. Dies macht sie zu einer ausgezeichneten und leicht zu bändigenden Wahl für unsere Zeltlandschaften. ​Farbe: Die Farbpalette ist von satten Grüntönen dominiert, an denen sich im fortgeschrittenen Stadium äußerst dichte und harzige Blüten bilden. Ein wahrer Augenschmaus, der im Licht der LEDs oft so wirkt, als wäre er großzügig mit Puderzucker bestäubt. ​Geschmack: Der Name deutet es bereits an: Eine süße Symphonie! Das Geschmacksprofil ist eine cremige Mischung, die stark an Vanille und Karamell erinnert, sanft abgerundet mit fruchtigen Anklängen und feinen, erdigen Untertönen. Ein geradezu buttriges Geschmackserlebnis. ​Eigenarten: Diese Sorte ist ein wahrer Sprinter mit einer rasanten Blütezeit von lediglich 46 bis 49 Tagen. Mit einem THC-Gehalt von rund 20 % liefert sie ein sanftes, beruhigendes Body-High. Ihre hohe Resistenz gegenüber Feuchtigkeit und Schädlingen macht sie zu einer überaus robusten Kandidatin für unsere Aufzeichnungen. ​Rechtlicher Hinweis: "Abschließend sei wie immer angemerkt, dass dieses Growtagebuch die dokumentarische Begleitung eines privaten und legalen Anbauvorhabens im Rahmen der jeweils gültigen Gesetze darstellt. Wir bei Borberad distanzieren uns ausdrücklich von jeglichen illegalen Aktivitäten und betonen die Wichtigkeit der Einhaltung der lokalen Rechtsvorschriften bezüglich des Anbaus von Cannabis." ​Woche 0: Die Keimungsphase ​Das Keimen des VIP-Samens hat im Mars Hydro Anzuchtzelt begonnen. Tag 1 Entgegen unserer gewohnten Vorgehensweise nutzen wir kein Tauchbad mit 1% H202 zum Quellen der Samen sondern lassen den Samen vollständig im von Kannabia freundlicherweise zur Verfügung gestellten Sproutly Keimen. Tag 2 Nach 36h wurden der Sproutly das erste Mal geöffnet und zeigte gekeimte Samen mit ca 5mm langer, weißer und gesunder Wurzel. Also rein in die Vorbereiteten und zuvor temperierten Anzuchttöpfe, anstelle der in letzter Zeit üblichen Easyplugs. Tag3 Warten Tag 4 91 Stunden nach dem Start des Quellen waren die kleinen Keimlinge dann schon ohne Helmchen ins Licht gewachsen. Tag5. Die Keimblätter sind entfaltet und die ersten echten Blattpaare öffnen sich. Tag 6 Sie macht einen soliden Eindruck. Tag 7 ... und lässt sich etwas Zeit. ​Düngung & Messwerte: kein zusätzlicher Dünger notwendig. Fokus auf stabilen VPD von 0,8 kPa.

Eccoci arrivati a fine ciclo, raccoglierò dopo le ultime foto fatte la mattina

D15 - 9.27 - Cruising along, just watering them once a day D16 - 9.28 - I planted carrots and transplanted the rest of the seedlings. They are all in the same space. That one LA Sunset never really started to thrive, but I'll keep it for now. D18 - 9.30 - I topped my first plant for mainlining. I picked the strongest FWW with the most growth tip at the 3rd node and just went for it. She may be a little young, so I left her fan leaves for support. I've decided to do 3 groups of two for this grow, in an attempt to experience how these different strains respond to different techniques - Pair 1 will be mainlined with 8 mains, Pair 2 will be mainlined with 4 mains and Par 3 will not be mainlined but traditionally topped to 4 mains. D19 - 10.1 - Topped the first Black Sugar for mainlining. Her growth tips are really nice looking. D20 - 10.2 - Have them all topped 👌

Photo from week one and two

63 days!!!! The girl got a lot of sun this week, the air temperature also rose above 30°, so the girl has to be watered every day, all because it is a northern balcony project with not very good conditions, but in general, her current condition really satisfies me:) a real decoration of the balcony:):) good luck to everyone:)

Ziemlich geil der run von kannabia, da bekommt man Lust auf mehr.

Day 21. I post one day earlier, but its a huge week for them. Cleared space, install chicken wire fence. Added worm castings, epsom salt, mono potassium, calcium nitrate , Great White, Biosys and hope they will be ok. Next visit in two weeks. Root system was good, couple girls had mini root bound on the bottom, so timing was perfect ! Sherbet was strongest, purple haze weakest, both Apples were ok too. Happy Growing !!!

Going to run my light close to the dominant plant even if I burn it.

Howdy growfessors 👽, the outdoors ladies are growing nicely. Not much to say except that now that the last 4 days of rain are done and the sun is shining, I expect these ladies will take a jump in size/growth.

Hallo zusammen 🤙. Sie wächst sehr schön und macht keine Probleme.

Diese Woche nichts außergewöhnliches! Ich habe heute die Leistung auf 550 Watt erhöht. Klima passt perfekt, Entwicklung gesamt auch okay … die Ladies haben Durst und vertragen nicht mehr Dünger… die Indicas sind interessanterweise anfälliger für zu viel Dünger…. Für einen gleichen Start ist die Entwicklung sehr unterschiedlich! Immer wieder etwas Entlaubung da zu viele Blätter bei den Orange Sherbert…. Bis nächste Woche ✌️🏾

Endspurt!! TICHOME CHECK! Laut der Sorte sollten die Pflanzen nach etwa 60 Tagen mit der Blütephase durch sein – bei mir wäre dieser Zeitpunkt inzwischen erreicht. Ich habe mir allerdings die Trichome genauer angeschaut und würde den Pflanzen noch ungefähr eine Woche geben, da bisher noch nicht viele bernsteinfarbene Trichome zu sehen sind. Ansonsten gieße ich aktuell alle zwei Tage etwa 2 Liter Wasser. Mehr mache ich im Moment eigentlich nicht. 😊 Aktuelle Werte: VPD: 1.4 Humidity: 50% Temp: 33°C DLI: 50 1055 PAR

Sorry for the delay was in a wedding this weekend came home and been trimmin like a dog the past few days but I gotta feed everything in this tent tmm so I'm gunna get some pics. If your interested in the pics come back tmm night. The only 3 autos in 1 gal bags are the mexican airlines, pineapple express and blue dreamatic. Theyll stay pretty small and dry out quick so they are tough to keep up with cuz I only feed when I'm feeding the big ones. I dont mix up separate batches for these I just dilute the big batch which is usually 10-13 gal at a time

Day 67 and the last one is ready. The smell is incredible and the trichomes are crazy. Love this strain and gonna grow it again

Not much to do except add water. Living soil is easy. This is a 10/10 plant. Can't wait for the first joint.

Laid out the Srog nets with intention to change the light setting next week. Added pre-flower nutes as well as a 1" top dress - with some added nutrient mix. Thoroughly watered and ready to start training. Plant #1 - Super thick/compact, and SCROG will be a bitch. Plant #2 - More lanky but 3 weeks behind its sister. Going to go to flower as it does have my 16 bud sites.

Bienvenidos cultivadores a la décima semana de floración de esta gran cepa con dominancia sativa. La planta está alcanzando su gloria... grandes y densas colas dominan toda la escena; intensos y complejos aromas endulzados dominan todo el ambiente!! 👨‍🌾💦💡🌾 Todavía hay crecimiento en los brotes florales, los pistilos blancos lo delatan, esta semana la planta ha seguido centrada en la formación de flores, absorbiendo lenta pero constantemente los nutrientes de las hojas, antes de que estas caigan al suelo agotadas, ahora, para la planta, lo importante son sus flores, por está razón prescinde de sus hojas más antiguas. Aunque ha cumplido el tiempo de floración (9 semanas), información del banco de semillas, la planta mantiene mucha energía y capacidad de fotosíntesis, para al menos continuar floreando, un par de semanas más antes del corte!! 🤓🤙🤷‍♂️ ACTIVIDAD SEMANAL 💦💡👨‍🌾 Esta semana ha disminuido el consumo de agua de riego, 2396ml, un 24% menos que la semana anterior, debido a bajada de temperaturas y aumento de la humedad relativa, pero además, observo mayor consumo de agua conforme la mezclas tienen menor concentración de nutrientes, creo que los próximos riegos voy a hacerlos exclusivamente con agua, melaza y Microorganismos de Montaña Activados para capturar los nutrientes del sustrato retenidos por varios componentes del sustrato (Vermiculita, Zeolita y Biochar) y facilitar el trabajo de las raíces, creo que la planta por ahora no va a necesitar más. - Día 121. Riego con agua de montaña, melaza, Microorganismos de Montaña Activados (MMA Basic) al 5% y Ormus al 0,5%. Potencio de este modo la inoculación de Microorganismos al sustrato, para que mineralicen la materia orgánica convirtiéndola en humus y además quelaten los minerales del sustrato a la mayor velocidad posible, para ponerlos a disposición de la planta cuando esta lo solicite. Según datos, un centímetro cúbico de sustrato puede llegar a contener hasta 200 millones de microorganismos. - Día 124. Mezcla de riego nutritivo especializado para floración con agua de montaña con Hidrolizado potásico (Humato) de leonardita (Húmicos, fúlvicos, K) al 1%, Biol de Guanos con Microorganismos Eficientes -EM- (MMA, BAL, Ca, Mg, Cu, P... micronutrientes) al 3% y melaza. Nada más por hoy... SALUDOS A TODOS!! 😄 ================================= 🙄☮️👇🙏👌🤛👍👉👉👉❤️💜❤️👈👈👈🤜👌🙏👇☮️🤩🖐️🏻 =================================
