Day 36 Flower (Day 78) Today is the first day of week six of flower and on this glorious day, I went to war against the fungus gnats. By war, I mean watering each girl with 5 million Nematodes in 3 liters of pH 6.5 water. That should hopefully do the trick and get rid of the annoying little shits. I also experimented a bit more with bud photography and this time I used an LED ring flash. The next step is to shoot during the dark period so I don't get any supplemental light from the grow lights. That was pretty much it today as it is mostly just coasting along at this point in the grow. Day 37 Flower (Day 79) The left girl got pampered with a new light today. Let's see if those extra photons can help her fatten up. She also got a CO2 bag to help her to soak up all those juicy photons. The right girl on the other hand just got her daily watering. Today with 3 liters at pH 6.6. Day 38 Flower (Day 80) All I did today was to give the right girl 3 liters of pH 6.5 water and started brewing some compost tea to feed tomorrow. I used a simple recipe this time with just some worm castings and molasses to increase the microbial activity, as well as a bit of neem meal for some additional nutrition but also to help against pests. The fungus gnats in the tents are almost gone. The nematodes took care of the gnat larvae and the yellow sticky traps have been catching the adults. Day 39 Flower (Day 81) Super chill day. I just gave each girl 3 liters of compost tea at pH 6.2. Done. Day 40 Flower (Day 82) I gave 3 liters of pH 6.5 water to the right girl and supported some of her branches as they're getting heavy with buds. Boom! Day 41 Flower (Day 83) Today I gave each girl 3 liters of pH 6.5 water. The gnats look to be defeated for now. I can't see any in the tents and the yellow sticky traps are empty. Day 42 Flower (Day 84) The last day of the sixth week of flower and all is going great in the tents. The heatwave we were having went away, which kind of sucks on a personal and social level, but it's great for the girls as the tents were swelteringly hot. The left girl is 103 cm tall and didn't grow anything this week. She has started to fatten up a bit now since I installed a more powerful light, but she is still lagging far behind the right girl. I'm interested to see if she is only lagging behind in time and will fatten up eventually, or if her ordeal has stunted her flowers, resulting in a bunch of larf. Time will tell. Either way, it will be a learning experience. The right girl also didn't grow vertically this week (thankfully!). Her 123 cm is tall enough to be dangerously close to the lights. She is fattening up nicely but still some time to go before she is done. I haven't checked any trichomes yet but should probably start checking next week. Today was another chill late-flower day, I just gave the left girl 2 liters of pH 6.7 water, and the right got 3 liters at pH 6.5.

Second week of flower. The girls are looking great. Day 10 - Realizing that I may have waited too long to flip to flower. Plants are over-hanging my table.

At day 18 i topped her. I’m really curious how she’s handle the stress. In the next few days I will bend her down a little and installing a net to hold the plant small. We are ending week 3 shortly! She handled the topping very good. No signs of slowing down her grow or any deficiency. I did some LST after topping but one of the main branches snapped half through. She damaged side still performs exactly like the intact one. I try to be patient and careful with the bending of this branch. I taped the location and try to not bend it hardly anymore.

Had to cut the Moby down. More and more mold developed so I saved, what I could. 20 % (lower, smaller flowers) I left to see, if they can grow some more. Honey cream stacking up fast. Really fast flowering. But still has at least 2 weeks to go. Hope to get her to finish. Extreme good smell. Sweet, spicy, rich earthy aroma. Extraordinary creamy. Huge colas

5/3 WATERED EVERYTHING WITH A SHOT GLASS. STUNTED PURPLE PUNCH THAT TOTALLY SRIED OUT GOT HALF A SHOT GLASS. Doesn't seem possible but the plants look bigger and better than they did yesterday. Cups are really drying out fast. Takes a while for it to drink up that little shot glass of water. Sits right on top for a while. I know they'll tell me when they're ready to transplant but I'm planning about a week week and a half until transplant to the 3's. I'm moving my cage and getting supports setup ahead of time. Soil is properly stored. Need to sanitize grow bags and tools. I'm super excited for this year. At least this year I don't have to start out fixing others problems from clones. 5/4 Plants still continuing to grow at a rapid pace. Stunted purple punch is doing better. Plants seem like they are using more water. Soil seemed dry. Ill stop qnd ask my buddy but everything LOOKS awesome. UPDATE: I stopped and showed my buddy some pictures and videos and after getting some advice I'm considering increasing water intake on the 10th planet and the blueberry cheese. He said I could go up to 1 1/2 shot glasses or even two and he didn't think I'd see problems. Just watch for run off. I figured I'd weigh the dry cup of soil and see what the other plants weigh before I make my decision. This dude has definitely helped in the past and hasn't been wrong. I think either way it would be fine. I got a QUICK peak at them around 3pm and they were all "praying to the sun" and their was company so I didn't weigh the plants considering in that glance they looked even better than before! 5/5 SOMEWHERE HERE I MESSED UP THE DATE AND I CANT SEEM TO FIND WHETE SO IM JUST CORRECTING IT HETE AND MOVING FORWARD. I weighed a dry cup of soil which weighed about 180-190 grams today. One of the 10th planet seedlings weighed in at like 190 so they definitely are getting a dry cycle and need more water. Same with the Blueberry cheese. They were light and are growing like crazy. Thing is they look so perfect I don't wanna change anything. I spoke to my commercial buddy and he said I could increase to two shot glasses without issue he thought. I decided on a shot glass and a half for the 10th planet and Blueberry Cheese Cake. I talked to another grower (my buddies mom whos very familiar with the strain) about Barney's purple punch and I guess they look good and take a while to really "take off". When I weighed some of the purple punch the weight of a small plant was in the 220's. I decided to try 'half a shot glass' instead of a full one for the purple punch. UPDATE: I watered between 5am and 6am and went to check around 11. It's 11:11 right now! I wish for a successful harvest and healthy plants! This morning the plants seemed a little droopy. It could've been in my head but looking at them after watering and they look substantially better. Leaves up! Praying to the sun! It's not going to be long until the 10th planet and Blueberry Cheese will need to be transplanted. I just want to make sure I've got a solid rootball before I even think of transplanting. 5/6 WOW. Adjusting the water made the plants take off faster! I felt the cups and they want more room! Unfortunately I left my soil in the garage. I'm wondering how long it will take to warm up otherwise these girls would be on their new temporary 3 gallon homes. Purple punch REALLY took off. Might be good to give the soil a day or two to warm up. Tomorrow's my wife's birthday though....hope she likes transplanting cannabis....that was a joke. UPDATE: I sanitized a tote and mixed 3 part soil fox farm ocean forest, happy frog and 707 in a bin. I then chose the blueberry cheese cake to test for transplant. I was afraid plants were dry but I stupidly went ahead anyhow. I tried the cut the solo cup method and it wouldn't cut down all the way. Anyway u thought i lost that first one but I didn't. Not yet anyway. 45 mins later and they looked great. Still I had put everything away and decided to give the others a few more days. Plus my wife's birthday is tomorrow. I did get some outdoor prep done. 5/7 NO TRANSPLANT SHOCK. All 5 blueberry cheese are in their new homes and loving it. It's my wife's birthday so I'm gonna have to wait until tomorrow to transplant the 10th planet and maybe a couple more for the purple punch. We'll see. Watered the plants in solos. Purple punch got half a shot glass. 10th planet got a full one. Soil should be nice and moist for the transplant. Oh and that ripping the solo cup tip sucks. It NEVER goes all tge way to the bottom and it's like thicker or something down there. Important to have slim scissors or something to snip that tiny bottom piece at the end where it tapers. 5/8 Blueberry Cheese Cake is doing great and doesn't seem like it has any stress. Didn't water. Successfully transplanted 10th planet. Nice white roots. Looks like it's going to be a good year. More wotlrk to do. 5/9 10th planet is looking GREAT! Transplants have gone great this year. Purple punch will be transplanted tonight or tomorrow. I watered the purple punch with less than a shot glass. I'd like to get them transplanted today. I have an idea this is going to be a good season. UPDATE: Went to the house around 6 and brought in a couple more bags of soil so that I can finish my transplants tomorrow. Team #nowater lol seems to be doing great lol. I'll give then water tomorrow. As long as they aren't doing so good. With everything that's going on seeing these succeed feels great. Healthiest plants I've grown so far.

Potted into 16 ltr pots and moved into a different tent to finish up. I will let her settle them thin out the canopy for better light penetration and to reduce humidity..

Week 5: Flower - Different Strokes for Different Folks 🌸 Currently vibing to: Larry June - Smooth Kind 🎵 We're deep into flower now, and the girls are teaching me one of growing's most important lessons—even sisters from the same genetic line have their own unique needs. Individualized care is the name of the game. Apple Fritter & Lemon Cherry (Right) - Still Hungry! Despite last week's top dress, these two are showing signs they want MORE. Sometimes plants just have bigger appetites, and that's okay—we adjust and keep moving. Last Week's Feeding: Top Dress: Equal parts (1 tbsp each) Gaia Green All Purpose 4-4-4 Roots Organic Terp Tea Bloom (direct feed) Supplement: Growganica Incredible Kelp (for bulking support) The Reality: They're still looking a bit hungry—lighter green than ideal, possibly showing early signs of nitrogen or micronutrient deficiency as they push through flower. This Week's Plan: Direct liquid feed with Roots Organic Terp Tea Bloom for faster nutrient availability Another top dress to build the soil reserve back up The combination should give them both immediate and sustained nutrition Sometimes you've got to hit them from both angles—quick-acting liquid feeds AND slow-release top dressing. Lemon Cherry (Left) - The Thriving One Meanwhile, her sister is absolutely GLOWING. Lush, deep green leaves, vigorous bud development, and zero signs of deficiency. She's the poster child for what these plants should look like right now. Her Schedule: Same feeding as the others last week The Difference: Could be phenotype variation, root mass differences, or just plain old plant personality. This is why we observe each plant individually rather than treating the whole garden as one unit. Feeding Plan: Keep her on the same schedule—if it ain't broke, don't fix it. She'll get the kelp supplement but may not need the aggressive feeding the others require. The Growganica Incredible Kelp Addition Added to all three plants to support: Bulking and bud density Micronutrient uptake Natural plant hormones for flower development Stress resistance Kelp is that secret weapon in organic growing—packed with trace minerals and growth hormones that plants love during flower. Key Observations & Real Talk The big lesson this week: Two plants from the same seed batch, getting the same treatment, responding completely differently. This is NORMAL and actually really important to recognize. Some plants are heavy feeders. Some are light feeders. Some have more aggressive root systems. Some are more efficient at nutrient uptake. You can't cookie-cutter this—you have to read each plant and respond accordingly. The hungry girls aren't struggling—they're just asking for more. And that's fine! Better to feed them what they need than stubbornly stick to a schedule that's not working. The Organic Feeding Strategy Moving Forward For the hungry duo: Immediate: Liquid Terp Tea Bloom feed (faster absorption) Follow-up: Top dress to rebuild soil reserves Monitor: Watch for color improvement and vigorous growth response For the thriving girl: Maintain: Current feeding schedule Observe: Keep watching to ensure she stays happy Adjust: Only if she starts showing needs Next Week's Plan Execute the dual feeding approach (liquid + top dress) on Apple Fritter and Lemon Cherry Right Continue kelp supplementation across all three Monitor bud development and adjust support/training as needed Document the differences in plant response—this is valuable data for future grows Keep the Larry June flowing and the vibes smooth ✌️

Hey everyone! Week 7 is here (2nd of flower) and here's what happened this week! 😃 - Both of my girls look very different from each other. Many things could've lead to this! - The one that's on the "front" is developing faster, her leaves are darker in color and they look long and thinner (more Sativa in her DNA?). Besides that? Not so much besides this was a very, veeeery hot week compared to previous ones and that one of my girl is no longer showing Magnesium deficiency, which is amazing! I'm really impressed how things are going so next week I'll start adding some extra PK and see how things develop. I want some biiiiig buds! 😍 Anyway, that's all for now. See you all next week and enjoy the photos and videos!

Removed all lower fan leaves and fan leaves from bud sites to maximize yield. Hoping it wasn’t too late for this but seems to have reacted positively.

Day 64 - Starting week 10 and I’m ready to chop her but gonna give her another week and possibly chop next weekend. Not sure yet though. She’s mostly milky but would like some ambers in there and if I’m not seeing any this week, I’ll give her more time. Day 65 - Still continuing to give her straight pH’d water to flush her out. PPM’s are down to around 550 so thinking by the end of week 10, she should be completely flushed and ready for chop. Just watching to trichomes to tell me when. Day 66 - Just did a flush with foxfarm’s sledgehammer and gonna let her dry out till the weekend and looking at the trichomes, she’ll be ready for a chop this weekend. Looking forward to finally starting to dry and cure this girl! Day 67 - On track for chopping Saturday, day 70. Not seeing any clear trichomes, all are milky and some amber. Will most likely chop most of her and and maybe let the few bottom buds get light for a week or so and chop the rest. Day 68 - Looking good and frosty and begging to be chopped but gonna wait till Friday or Saturday then start the drying process!

Day 56: I gave 1.5L of clear water to the royal gorilla auto. Day 59: I gave 1.5L of water to the glue gelato auto. I also checked the trichomes, on both plants they are translucents, I'll wait some of them to turn amber. It was predicted a grow of 65 to 70 days from germination to harvest and it did not lie. I might harvest next sunday (day 65) but I hope it can wait until the next tuesday so both plants would have at least 14 days of clear water. Day 60: I gave 1.5L of water to the royal gorilla auto.

The looks on this one are sexy! It also burns even. Effects wise, first 15 mins you perceive a high cerebral rush that peaks at 30 mins. Makes you feel creative and with energy. Later on, the cerebral effect dissipates and leaves you feeling all giggly and relaxed in da body. The smell is all about sweetness and gas with a funky grapey smell hugging and keeping those close. Colors didn't showed much cause of the 24/0 light cycle but it ended up showing some purple hues during late bloom. Overall this girl was so fn grateful with the treatment she received.

Since week 7, I have used some sewing string and tape with paper towel pieces (so string doesn't imbed) to slightly pulled down on main stems to open up canopy in middle and 3 or 4 fan leaves snipped. The bottom buds in 2 days became like the top buds. Ppfd is like 600 at 13 inches away causing sun Tan on anterior part of stem, or its genetics. 2nd pic is today, DAY 58...... P.S. I journal everything in a book since my 1st grow. Helps me look back on what this strain does not like. Also will upload diary of nothern lights and trainwreck. 1 of each survived out of 4 total. In 4x4 rn. Starting bananablaze, and will have white window started hopefully this weekened. Happy grows and Happy 🌲💨

Quarter Pounder and Skywalker are probably over due for final flushing. Squanch Queen is doing very well and looking to go 9 to 10 weeks. King tut and Alien Technology doing well. However, i did a spray of insecticidal soap due to seeing a couple small holes in a few king tut leaves. Next day plant was shocked and lost tons of leaves to burn. This plant did this once before with the same spray, the others no problem and didnt connect the two til now. Will let her veg back to health and flip to flower once shes healthy again and the autos are done.

Hello Growmies, As the 12th week dawns on our garden, we've witnessed the culmination of a journey that has been as challenging as it has been rewarding. Watermelon Candy F1 Hybrid #1, my personal favorite, has dazzled us with a mesmerizing fade, displaying a resilience that sets her apart. Her reaction to repotting was a testament to her robust genetics; however, this serves as a learning curve. From now on, our auto-flowering beauties will start life in their forever homes, eliminating any undue stress in their crucial growth phases. Meanwhile, Watermelon Candy F1 Hybrids #2 and #3, though they've faded beautifully, suggest that an additional week could have further honed their splendor. It's a subtle reminder that each plant scripts its own path to maturity, some etching their tales with swift, vibrant strokes, others preferring a leisurely pace to full bloom. With heartfelt gratitude, we extend our thanks to Zamnesia and especially Patricia for the exceptional seeds that have graced our tent. These final snapshots capture the last living moments of these plants before they transitioned to the drying tent, a rite of passage into their next phase of existence. As the Watermelon Candy trio embarks on their afterlife journey, the Red Banana Pudding and Epic Buzz inherit the tent's legacy. With more space to flourish, they promise to carry on the tradition of growth and excellence we cherish. Cultivation is an endless cycle of birth, growth, and rebirth. Today we celebrate both an ending and a beginning, the harvest's closure, and the promise of new growth. It's a cycle that keeps us grounded and yet always reaching for the next level of growth. Stay lifted, Salokin
