Grow Diary: Durban Poison Girls (Week 6) Dates: April 17 – April 23, 2026 Status: Vegetative Stage Overview The girls (DP1, DP4, DP5, and DP6) are looking robust and vibrant as they hit their stride in Week 6. The foliage is a healthy, deep green, and the stem strength has significantly improved this week. We are maintaining a strong indoor environment while watching the Easter Colorado weather closely to time their move to the deck. Weekly Environmental Log The weather was a bit of a rollercoaster this week. While indoor temps remained stable, the external conditions impacted humidity and light intensity coming through the windows. • Temp/Humidity: Consistent indoor temps at 22°C–24°C. Humidity was slightly lower this week due to the breezy outdoor conditions, requiring a bit more frequent misting to keep the "Sweetener" uptake optimal. • Weather Highlight: April 17 was quite chilly (5.5°C), but by the 20th, we saw a beautiful spike to 26°C. The girls enjoyed the extra natural light boost from the back porch windows during those sunny afternoons. Feeding & Maintenance We stayed the course with the organic regimen this week to ensure no nutrient lockout before the big transplant. • Nutrients: Half strength FOOP Veg and Sweetener administered on Tuesday (April 21). • Watering: Soil was drying out faster this week as the root systems expanded. Switched to a slightly heavier watering volume to ensure the 50/50 soil blend stayed moist but well-aerated. Plant Observations • DP1 & DP5: Showing the most vertical growth. Might need a final top above the fourth node if they continue to stretch toward the light panel before Mother's Day. • DP4: Very bushy! The LST is creating a nice wide structure that will fill out the 25-gallon fabric bag perfectly. • Pest Control: The African marigold seedlings are coming along nicely—no signs of fungus gnats or mites on the Durban girls. Upcoming for Week 7 • Prepare the 25-gallon fabric bags with the 50/50 Miracle-Gro mix. • Monitor overnight lows; we are still about three weeks out from the safe "after Mother's Day" transplant date. • Begin checking the "Garden" calendar for hardening-off windows.

Radical defoliation this week to get all energy and light to the main nugs. Incorporated some Organic Molasses into the feed to sweeten and fatten up the buds. I'm definitely too close to the lights with this grow, they grew taller than i expected but i didn't top this grow, i wanted it to be more freestyle and natural but my small space (1mx1.2m) dictates otherwise, i will definitely be cropping, topping and mainlining in the next grow, one plant has passed the light and the last time i suppercropped i bust a branch that was irrepairable so i've left them to do their thing till harvest.

I can tell you that it's rare but this variety smell so so so strong my god the odor pass though wall you can smell it from 50 meters around 😯unreal 😂😋

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!guckt euch letzen Report an !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Blüte hat begonnen: Edit:11.05 Die Pflanzen sind innerhalb von 2 Tagen explodiert. Ich habe das Licht nun auf 75 Prozent gestellt und noch einmal Cal-Mag nachgegeben, da die letzte Gabe nur eine halbe war. Die beiden Titan sehen fast identisch aus. Die beiden Epsilon sind circa 3 Tage unterschiedlich, eine ist etwa 5 cm kleiner als die andere und hat noch kaum Blüten. Ich denke, in 3 Tagen wird das der Fall sein. Die Cosmos F1 ist im Umfang circa 50-50 cm, kaum Blüten bisher. Ich hoffe, sie wird nicht noch viel größer, da der Platz langsam eng wird. Ich bin von dem Wachstum dieser Pflanze absolut begeistert. Mal gucken, was die Blüte bringt. Edit ende Ich habe alle Blüten entfernt, die nicht im direkten Licht sind, und alle Blätter, die die Blüten bedecken. Die Pflanzen weisen einen Cal-Mag-Mangel auf, was bei der Blüte normal ist, gerade bei diesem Licht. Ich habe dem Gießwasser etwas Cal-Mag hinzugefügt. Die Pflanzen sind drei Tage älter als im letzten Report. letzte Woche : Die Pflanzen sind seit der Keimung auf diesen Fotos genau 30 Tage alt. Ich habe eine Pflanze ausgetauscht, da es sich um eine Epsilon F1 handelte, die vermutlich Mutationen aufwies. Sie hatte verkümmerte Blätter, die nicht wie die ihrer Artgenossen aussahen, und wuchs deutlich langsamer. Daher habe ich sie nach 2,5 Wochen ausgetauscht. Der kleine Mann(die ausgetauschte Pflanze) leidet natürlich jetzt ein bisschen unter Lichtstress, deswegen werde ich wohl nur eine sehr gestauchte Pflanze erhalten. Aber besser, als die Fläche leer zu lassen. So viel zu dem, was nicht funktioniert hat: Die Sanlight stand die ersten 2 Wochen auf 20 Prozent. Dann habe ich sie teilweise mit dem Dimmer höher gestellt: 2 Stunden auf 25 Prozent. Eine Woche später bin ich auf 30 Prozent und 2 Stunden mit 35 Prozent gegangen. Für Woche 4 habe ich 40 Prozent und 2 Stunden auf 45 Prozent gewählt. Ich erhoffe mir, die Pflanzen so schneller an die starken Lampen zu gewöhnen. Im Nächsten grow soll bei jeder Pflanze die TDS per Infrarot gemessen werden. Da werde ich dann ein Experiment zu machen, wie die Lichtsteigerung am besten umzusetzen ist. Zu den Lampen kann ich bis jetzt nur Positives sagen. Im Gegensatz zur dazugehörigen App, diese ist wirklich nicht sehr gut umgesetzt. Das Menü und die Einstellungen sind teilweise irreführend und nicht sehr durchdacht. Ich muss mir immer wieder die Tutorials in der App ansehen, da diese immer wieder angezeigt werden. Noch dazu hätte ich gerne die Möglichkeit, mehr Einstellungen treffen zu können. Das ist aber Meckern auf hohem Niveau, weil auch die App das macht, was sie soll, nur eben meiner Meinung nach nicht sehr gut umgesetzt. Die Pflanzen wurden von mir mit Klipsen aus dem 3D-Drucker gestützt. Diese Klips kann man Stück für Stück im Winkel verstellen, so dass man die Triebe damit neigen kann. Das habe ich von Tag zu Tag im Winkel verstellt, so dass ich am Ende einen 45-Grad-Winkel habe. Das habe ich insgesamt über 6 Tage gemacht. Die Pflanzen haben an sich ein sehr gleichmäßiges Wachstum. Die Cosmos F1 wächst so optimal, dass kein LST mit den Klipsen nötig ist. Ich habe an den Pflanzen keine Mängel entdecken können und auch keine Anzeichen von Mutationen. Die Pflanzen haben im Durchschnitt eine Höhe von 35 cm, wobei eine etwas stärker abweicht mit 22 cm (wieder eine Epsilon F1). Der Umfang mit LST bei der Cosmos F1 liegt ohne LST bei 20 cm im Durchschnitt, wo wir wieder die Epsilon im Negativen haben mit 14 cm. Die Pflanzen wurden alle entlaubt, das eine Woche vor der Blüte. Morgen werden die Pflanzen erneut entlaubt und ge-lollipoppt. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!zusätliche infos werden morgen ergänzt + Fotos !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *1. Foto Mutation: Dieses Foto wurde nur 5 Minuten nach dem Umtopfen der Pflanze aufgenommen. Vorher stand sie in einem größeren Topf, in dem sie genauso aussah. Ich habe sie umgetopft, weil ich den Topf brauchte, aber die Pflanze nicht wegwerfen wollte. Der Pflanze geht es gut, aber sie sieht im Moment etwas mitgenommen aus. Bilder folgen

Hello again, Growmies, As we proudly step into week 10 with our Epic Buzz, the symbiosis of nature and technology in our garden is truly flourishing. The dedication of TrolMaster's automation system is reflected in the thriving state of Epic Buzz #1, #2, and #3, which are burgeoning with vitality and promise. Epic Buzz #1 is a spectacle, adorned with clusters of dense flowers that are bursting with trichomes—each bud a sparkling testament to the perfect environment we've provided. The light frosting is spreading across the foliage, foretelling the potent harvest that awaits us. In our controlled ecosystem, the average Vapor Pressure Deficit (VPD) has been right on target, ensuring optimal transpiration without stressing our beloved plants. This careful balance optimizes their uptake of water and nutrients, fostering the luscious flowering we're observing. Siblings #2 and #3 are not to be outdone, with their own dense, sticky flowers reaching for the heavens, eagerly soaking in every ounce of light. Their robust health and vigour are clear indicators of the success of our environmental stewardship. Our environmental graph this week is a testament to our commitment to stability. The temperatures and humidity have held within the ideal range, if we discount the outliers, maintaining a conducive atmosphere for the Epic Buzz family's development. The steadfast nature of the EC and pH of our nutrient solution has played a pivotal role in this week's triumph. This unwavering supply of nutrition has been crucial, providing our Epic Buzz plants with the sustenance they need to thrive. As we look to the coming weeks, it's with a sense of eager anticipation. The Epic Buzz trio, with their hedgehog-like buds and early frost, are not just plants but representations of cultivation mastery. They are a living tribute to the precision of our environment, lovingly controlled and monitored for their benefit. And so, as we anticipate the final stretch of this grow cycle, we remain captivated by the daily progress and the nearing harvest. With each day, we're reminded of the beauty and strength found in diversity and balance. Stay lifted, Salokin

Sept 04, 2020 Hi, Thanks for checking out this diary from beginning to almost its end. The plants stood Under hard rain, strong twistering wind and took a beat from the Zizzling summer’s Sun but today they couldn't stand under the cold sharp metal blades of the pruners. We started to cut down plants. Their beginning was in a moist but no so wet paper towel, Transition into a 2” pot, grow medium was a mixuture of Re-used pro-mix with organic material And some gaia green bloom. They grew and were transferred to 5 gallon pots and were given nutri Authentik until week 2 of flowering. They grew and grew, some of them started to show signs of gender. males were taken from the pack To succumbed in the hands of the garbage can. The surviving female were fed Alaska morbloom Gaia green for flowering feeding. Unfortunately, some of the plants got pollinated so Today we started to chop the plants. 3 of them at first and 7 more to go. Thanks for checking out this diary. Keep it growing!!!!!

End of week 10 - Day 70 / 35 of flower Another good week at the parlour. A lot of hours spent in the tent yoyo-ing the biggest colas. Half way through the week nearly all of them had fallen over so I had a full evening trying to make some space and hanging them up. I messed up a feed at the beginning of the week and over fertilised them with PK which can be seen on some leaves. For the last 3 feeds they've been on only 0.5ml per litre to try and reverse a bit of the damage. After today they come off PK completely and onto the BioGreen X-Blast. Obviously with this being my first grow I have nothing to properly compare too just other diaries. Only 1 or 2 of my friends grow their own medicine but regardless I've never seen weed like this (in person) in my life. The frostiness is next level. Even with the lights on you can see just how many Trichomes these have produced. It's looking like they will only need another 3 weeks. Plan is to carry on following the feed chart for for another 2 weeks and if I see any signs of cloudy Trichs I'll start to flush them untill they are 50/50 cloudy and amber. I really hope these keep going strong. I just cant wait untill I can pack a bong and take a rip of my very own home grown weed!

End of the 3rd week of transition and plants are still lazy as hell getting to flower. There’s minor pistoling but no cotton balls at all. They’re slow all around. We ended up culling down to a 50/50 split of males and females and now it’s just a question of whether or not the females actually flower. We’ll see I guess… still wait’n….

hey guys, into week 10 and the start of the flowering phase. Getting closer to 12/12 and the ladies are starting to stretch. Not much going on this week. A little bit of lst and the usual maint on the canopy. Iv notice that some plants are having issues with brown/copper spots forming on some of the leafs edges. Hope someone can point me in the right direction.

17/09 - PH dropped overnight. Bumped back up to 5.8. EC 1.2, water level dropping. Might top off with higher nute dose tomorrow. D10 since pistills. Dehumidifer should be arriving early next week. 18/09 - PH dropped slightly overnight, EC considerably. Topped off with nute water at standard ratio but with added 3ml of calmag. PH now around 6, EC 1.2ish. 19/09 - PH stable at 6.0. EC 1.17, water level dropping. Was worried about last night, but she perked back up again this morning. Defoliated 15 leaves or so and noticed a branch with a wilting top. Going to keep an eye, but dont really want to chop at this stage unless absolutely neccessary. 20/09 - PH dropped to 5.9, EC to 1.07 morning, 5.8, .97 evening. Water level continues to drop. Leaves on problematic branch further wilted, but branch is strong. Chopped wilting leaves to see what happens. Defoliated 20 or so problematic leaves. Trying to gradually open her up a bit but avoiding stems so she doesnt get a nasty shock once the stretch finishes. 21/09 - Res top up at standard ratio with 3ml calmag. Roughly 10l drank over 3 days. PH now around 6, EC 1.1ish. Dehumidifer now running outside the tent, but humidity is still around 70%. Contuning to defoliate around 15 leaves a day where theyre clumping / blocking sites.

This Week i changed the solution and flush with flora kleen once again. I have significant nute burns on many plants EC was rising on 1.7 optimum was on 1.4 to 1.5. Maybe the reason for this is the Lights I turn them up to 600w each now consuming 1300w with the led roundabout i need to make white foil over the tanks to get them not too hot inside. Big Bud have sorted out because he was dying and have put the biggest plant in one tank alone so they is doing beautiful :) Ph is Stable to 6.1 to 5.8 in each tank So far looking forward on many problems solving and knowing for the next run :) Happy Green Sunday :D

She’s almost ready. Really surprised me around the 5th week of flower letting this one go a little later. I feel she still needs more time. Probably gonna water/nutes one more time, and start the flushing process.

Been behind on updating pics so here is from my last week up until now. Made a few changes in between. Updated my lighting to Mars hydro ts1000 and the girls absolutely loved it These will be last pics before the harvest pics will be chopping down within next week

For Whom the Bell Tolls Greenhouse Seeds The Church CBD 1 week since Germination 11th April 2020 Well she's up and away this CBD version of the Church is looking nice and Healthy .😀👌 Whilst all of my flowering girls hate this humidity we are having , the little seedlings Love it 😎 Will give her a 1/4 strength feed today of some Organic Grow nutes. That is all for this week thanks For stopping by 👍

Estamos sufriendo en este periodo de secado unas inclemencias increíbles fuertes vientos y lluvias torrenciales acompañado de una gran humedad. Seremos muy pacientes para ver el resultado final Hoy finalmente terminé de cortar las últimas que estaban un poco más tardías. 11*
