Topping didnt seem to stunt the grow. On Day 15, i added some training stakes. This being my 2nd grow overall, i couldve done way better there, as youll see in the coming weeks. Plant A has had one Sidenode growing faster than the opposing one and it led to a bit of asymmetrical grow, though thats my mistake, not the BPPs. also, for future grows, i'd train the top nodes down even further, as they would soon overtake the other ones. I planned to have 4 main stems but ended up with a weird 2-2 hybrid, lol. But oh well! you live and learn haha. i ramped up the ppfd to around 500. Again, they probably couldve easily taken more. i watered 1.5 Liters on Day 15 - Giving 2.5 ml/L of rootjuice this time and ramping up biogrow to 2 ml/L. This was the first time i had a little bit of runoff to measure the drain ph, which was 5.9 and 5.7 respectively, quite ok, but a tad on the low end for my taste, so for future waterings i reminded myself to give slightly higher input ph.

Total life in days: 87 Days flowering: 61 days (8.71 weeks) Days drying: 7 Dry weight: 201.2 grams (7.19 ounces) * for all 4 plants combined One of, if not the most beautiful plant I've grown. Smells great, and looks even better. Can't wait until it cures. Definitely growing this again. Incredibly impressed with Kannabia

Dette er min stolthed pt hun har nok ca6uger igen hun bliver mere og mere fyldt med buds og masser af fimre hår!mit nye opset er det bedste jeg har gjort for mig selv og mine piger elsker det;) så keep on growing

Black Opium has just begun to flower. It has grown quite a lot since last week, and we are looking good overall 👌 Here is what I did this week. 9.8.25 I top dressed this week for the first time for this plant, along with the Pablo Escobar. I planted these at the same time. Here is what I used for the top dressing. I top dressed with the following organic dry amendments; As a base for the dry amendments I used: 🧡 Worm Castings - 1 Cup 🧡 Coco - 1 Cup 🧡 Perlite - 1/2 Cup Dry Amendments: 💚 Ecothrive Life Cycle 1TBS 💚 Ecothrive Bloom 1 TBS 💚 Ecothrive Charge 1TBS 💚 Diatomaceous Earth 1TBS 9.8.25: I watered this in with 2ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.0 with; 💜 2ml Trace PH: 6.5 PPM: 336. That's all for this week, thank you for stopping by and hanging out in the comments 😁💚🙏🍃✌️

Sorry been terrible at keeping up with this these are videos and photos i have taken over the weeks I've not been updating. I will update next Tuesday with photos and a video of how it looks now.

Week 7 for Lemon OG by SSSC The indoor Runt😂 Starting to bounce back from its initial overwatering/nitrogen toxicity she had from when it was transplanted. Finally starting be able to top her a few times. She's at 6 tops for now waiting a few days before I top her again & I reckon her lower branch will be ready for a topping soon aswell. She was fed twice this week with some FPJ, Regulator, Enzym+ & Startboooster by @aptus_portugal just to give it an extra boost! Think the Enzym+ is helping clear that build up of nitrogen i have. 😇 Starting to remove herself from the runt list😂Hopefully in the next few weeks she's out of it completely.

Grow Update — GMO Cookies Week 6 from seed | 12/12 from seed Marked as: Week 1 Flower Quick recap for anyone just joining This is a 12/12 from seed run, meaning plants have been grown under a flowering light schedule from day one. Because of that, development doesn’t follow the classic “veg → flip → flower” timeline. Instead, plants express themselves at their own pace, and structure, stretch, and flowering signals appear more organically. Now, in week 6 from seed, there’s no doubt anymore: this GMO Cookies is in flower. ⸻ Current environment (stable & shared across the room) • Temperature: ~27.5 °C • Humidity: ~65% • CO₂: ~900 ppm • PPFD: ~600–850 • Smaller plants: ~600–700 • Taller plants: up to ~800–850 Light intensity is intentionally staggered. Plants are allowed to grow into the photons naturally, rather than forcing a flat PPFD across different genetics and sizes. This helps maintain balance and reduces stress during stretch. ⸻ Root zone & watering • pH: 6.5 • EC: 2.4 • Root / reservoir temperature: ~17 °C Slightly on the cold side, acknowledged. Still within a manageable range, and plants are responding well. ⸻ Nutrition — why the switch happened • Switched from Plagron Terra Grow → Terra Bloom • Following the Plagron feeding schedule • This was the only intentional change As plants clearly entered flower, nitrogen-forward feeding (Terra Grow) was no longer appropriate. The switch to Terra Bloom reflects what the plant is now asking for: 👉 support for stretch, branching, and early flower development. The feeding schedule is being adapted slightly to match uptake speed and plant response, rather than followed blindly. Observation first, bottles second. ⸻ Training & plant behavior Low stress training is ongoing: • Leaf bending • Gentle positioning • No aggressive topping or hard stress The response has been excellent. This GMO Cookies is: • Stretching evenly • Branching beautifully • Forming compact, bushy structures What you see now are little green bushes, with multiple tops forming naturally. Those “little balls” and dense branching patterns are exactly what we want at this stage — it means the plant is distributing energy well and preparing multiple flowering sites. Color is strong, healthy green, with no signs of active stress. ⸻ What this means • Training is working • Environment is dialed • Nutrition is aligned with the plant’s phase • The plant is confident enough to push structure and flower at the same time This is the kind of growth that doesn’t happen by force — it happens when conditions allow it. ⸻ What to expect next week • Continued stretch • Clearer flower formation at branch tips • More defined structure as internodes space out What not to expect • Instant bud stacking • A frozen structure (she’s still moving) • Identical behavior to other genetics in the room Each plant runs its own race. ⸻ Final thoughts & thanks This 8x8 has been a real roller coaster — emotionally, visually, and educationally — and this GMO Cookies is no exception. Watching her respond, adapt, and thrive has been a pleasure. Huge thanks to: • The OGs • The newcomers • The lovers and the haters • The sponsors • The platform • And the community that makes these diaries worth writing It’s truly an honor to share these grows openly.

With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

Just been defoliating and changing the water weekly. Yesterday upped the ppm to 1000. Using powderfeed shortflower and Calmag.

Things are getting serious now!🔥 #2 has developed an insanely large main bud, absolutely packed with trichomes and giving off a super pungent aroma. 🌿 Meanwhile, #1 keeps stretching and is still the biggest plant in the tent. It continues to give off that stunning sweet, tropical scent, which is just unreal! Both plants seem to be moving fast—I have a feeling they might be ready in about two weeks. Let’s see how they finish up! 🤩

Day 56 Flowering: Hi growmies. I hope we are all well and still sane during this madness. Here we are at the harvest window for the Glueberry now and she is certainly up for it now. Her buds are stinky and sticky with the right amount of ripened pistils to cover around 60-70% of her structure. The next few days I will be using the microscope to keep watch on the trichromes for their sweet spot over the next few days. Shebhas been an easy grow but I wish I had stripped her lower scrub out early on in flower now. She didnt look recovered enough to strip out at the time but her leaf and scrub are filling the pots interiors so I need to keep on the air flow checking to avoid any budrot issues. Mimosa Lemon is everywhere!! She has been such a productive plant from the beginning. Her bud structures are very , very loose and I am dreading the dry and trim that will be awkward as to what to take off. while there are a lot of flowers , they are so loosely structured that it is very deceptive on appearances. Her Limonene is honking from her now and I can see her Lemon tag being so appropriate. The potency is becoming obvious by smell alone and her tacky feel at the slightest touch is a great sign too. I did quite a brutal defol and strip out very early in flower but she still threw so many mains out . This is one of the most productive flowering plants I have grown to date . I don't expect the yield to show this in totals but for bud growth and vigour , she has no rival so far. Another week for her at least but seeing the new pistils kicking out , it could be possibly 2 more. Let's see what the next few days bring for them. be safe and sane folks.

August 18, 2024. I received a very kind package from Divine Seeds this week. THANK YOU!! Very excited to get started in this competition. I should have just enough time to grow, harvest and cure before the November 30 deadline. Started the seeds directly in Solo cups filled with ProMix BX and added 5g of Grow Dots with each cup. I'm hoping to see sprouts in around 5 days and will then transplant to their final containers once the leaf tips start extending past the edges of the cups. Game on!!!👍

The Movie is from 23.12.24 👌 I hope everthing works fine

Привет привет друзья как дела как настрой ??? Ну вот и долгожданный репортаж от Раста ;) неделя прошла без изменений, как обычно всю неделю поправлял ветки от 707 показывал им как надо и в какую сторону им надо развиваться, в переди ещё 3-4 недели и я уже думаю чем мне закрепить ветки так как на этом этапе шишки уже очень тяжело. А ещё они только набирают вес и силы 😍😁

Performed root washing ... a few days and this delight should be put to dry!👍👏🤭🤙😁

The first week of progress. Got a little sprout coming out. The leaves got somewhat messed up from the shell sticking. More to come.

This plant is showing me everything I want to see ,,when it comes to LST,,,really healthy specimen,,branches popping out of everywhere,,!👌 Have been giving her a foliar feed,,with some Australian made kelp extract solution,,watered down,,,,I find it really gives the girls a good kickstart,,and acts like an antibiotic for the plant in its early stages,,👍💚💚

Seeing a lot of growth and bud formation. Light defoliation. Afraid to take off too much and stunt the growth! Hoping that doesn't turn out to be a mistake as far as yield goes.

Great week. Added some big bud nutrients and defoliated a bit. The buds are swelling nicely, the Advanced Nutrients is doing its job without a bit of burn.

Cherry Strudel, filling the net out well. Definitely not a stretcher, looks like I should hopefully get some nice nugs, I’m looking forward to seeing how the terps come through.
