03.08.21 Moin Growmies hab mir in der letzten Woche Gedanken gemacht zu meinem Vorhaben mit den Tomatenringen und mir ist aufgefallen das die Ladys nicht Grad gleichmäßig wachsen ,das liegt sicherlich daran das ich Depp wieder schlauer sein wollte und ein paar Seitenäste dran gelassen habe sprich beim ersten topping hätte ich alles entfernen sollen bis auf die 2 Triebe von der 3. Nodie und ich hab die 2 nodie mit stehen lassen weil ich dachte ich bin schlauer 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬ich könnte mich selber schlagen für die Dummheit naja Ergebniss des ganzen ist ungleichmäßiges Wachstum somit kann ich die Sache mit den Tomaten Ringen vergessen.......... Hab jetzt aber mein System noch einmal überarbeitet andere Topferhöhung ( 2x alte Bilderrahmen aus Holz auf Paletten Balken geschraubt und mit Hühner Draht bespannt das ganze auf Steine gestellt damit ich ne Wanne darunter stellen kann für abtropfwasser) den Rahmen vom scrogg netzt wieder raus gesammelt und neu bespannt ( Rahmen 90x90 cm aus nem alten Pavillon Gestell zurecht gesägt und mit Zaun bespannt die Abstände zwischen den einzelnen Rauten beträgt 6 cm sollte ausreichend Platz für die Triebe sein) habe das ganze gestern auf einer Höhe von 16 cm über dem Topfrand eingebaut mit Kabelbindern an den Zeltstangen befestigt somit hängt es an seiner Position fest und kann nicht von den Pflanzen hoch gedrückt werden wenn sie in die Blüte geht. Also is nun doch wieder ein sqrogg draus geworden aber den Ladys geht es insgesamt gut sie wachsen und gedeihen und wirken insgesamt gesund in den nächsten Wochen werde ich nun die Ladys in das netzt weben und Mal sehen was sie von scrogging Alla Milchschnitte halten. Ach ja die purps aus dem Garten sind anscheinend direkt nach dem umtopfen in den Stretch zur Blüte gegangen war ein bisschen spät dran fürs raus setzten aber lässt sich jetzt nicht ändern Mal sehen was draus wird,vll ja ein Gummibärchen Baum 😏😉 hab den outdoor Ladys gestern nen kleinen Regenschutz gebaut, is nicht der schönste aber er sollte seinen Zweck erfüllen damit der Topf Mal abtrocknen kann das Wetter ist seit fast 14 Tagen hart wechselhaft und der Topf noch nicht 1x richtig trocken gewesen das war's eigendlich was bis heut passiert ist cu Growmies und euch noch viel Erfolg........

The beginning of week 5! I think we are going into flower this week, signs are there. 7/22 (Day 35) - Started off week 5 with the most LST and Defoliation I have done and I was nervous. They needed it though, I was getting worried about mold and airflow through these bushy ladies, so I did my best and kinda followed my instinct. I did watch and read a ton of videos and articles and tried to put what I learned to use. I think these ladies are about to go into flower as well, started noticing the white pistols and where potential bud sites are going to be so I did my best to make those available to light and as even as possible. Will be letting them rest for a few days and reassess then. Everything continues to stay in check and the new dehumidifier worked awesome last night keeping the humidity in check. 7/23 (Day 36)- Didnt get any pictures this day. Pretty normal day, they drank 2 gallons and just continue to grow. I feel like they are just growing like crazy still and I think im starting to see them start stretching a bit more. 7/24 (Day 37)- Did the res change this morning, they are definitely starting to stretch and the bud sites seem to becoming more obvious. I went with more Veg neats after doing some reading, I may switch to bloom next week depending on how they are stretching. They fully recovered from the LST and defoliation two days ago. I decided to do a bit more today and focus on opening up light to sites that need them. Everything gets covered up so fast and I am having to defoliate a bit almost every other day it seems. 7/25 (Day 38)- Everytime I defoliate and do some LST they seem to bounce back so fast like next day. I did a bit more with the front left plant, she is lagging behind the others a bit, but that one has always seemed to be the runt. They are starting to form buds, especially back left plant which seems to have taken off a bit faster than the others. They are drinking almost 3 gallons a day! Everything continues to stay in check. I am debating if I should try scrogging or not, or just continue to LST and defoliate. Any input is welcome! 7/26 (Day 39) - Just kind of checked in on them and topped up the res today, Everything looks nice and healthy, all conditions are staying consistent and everyone is looking healthy. 7/27 (Day 40)- Did quite a bit of defoliation this morning. They needed it badly, a lot of the light was not getting through to under the canopy. Going to just keep an eye on them and see how they recover the next few days. As always, tips and recommendations are always appreciated!

In this week I can easily recognise the positive impact on the growth of moving the plants to the bigger pots, they increased the growth rate so much. #1 is 55cm tall (21+ inches), it still displays 9 pointed leaves above the internode where it started as reported in previous week diary page #2 is 54cm tall (21 inches), it displays couple leaves with 8 points and one or 2 new leaves seems to have 9 as well, I will confirm once they grow more #3 is 34cm tall (13 inches), this is the one that got problem in beginning (read previous page for more details), it is doing its best to recover and get to the same level of the other 2. I see only max 7 pointed leaves so far. Please share with me your thoughts about it, here's a n00b that likes to learn!

First grow finally done! . I battled a lot of inconsistencies with my environment and watering schedule. Despite this, and my big top gun growing pollen sacs, I had a great grow, and seedless buds! Top Gun 1 Gal harvested 25 grams dry Top Gun 5 Gal harvested 60 grams dry I really enjoyed the 1 gallon a lot more, easier to manage and rooted up the whole pot, going to try 3 gals next grow.

Well into the final stretch. Cleaned the fish tank and harvested a bunch of fish shit. Applied to all the plants, lets see how they jump and grow from this one.

Here we go 😊 Planning & germination 👍 I´m really looking forward to this run, the SpectrumX from Medicgrow with build in PPFD, 4 spectrums V1, F1, VS, FS and 880 Watt is definitely serious business 👊 Trying out a new soil in this grow. The plant mulch is an exclusive mixture of harped mulch, nutrient-rich natural fertiliser, hill sand and long-term matured compost. The mixture provides a porous and airy structure, which ensures that both water and nutrients are easily accessible to the plant's roots. Stay tuned and Keep it green 😎

Week 8 Flower – Roller Coaster Haze (Zamnesia Seeds) The Final Act of a Beautiful Journey Here we are, Week 8 of flower, and the Roller Coaster Haze girls are at their absolute peak. Massive, elegant, and shining with frost — these plants are true works of living art. The colas are huge, dense, and heavy, coated in trichomes that glisten under the lights. The aroma is intense, that unmistakable hay-sweet haze scent filling the room the moment you approach them. It’s been an incredible journey from seed to this point — full of learning, adjustments, and evolution — and the girls are showing their gratitude with a breathtaking display. ⸻ Light Defoliation & Canopy Health This week, we performed a light defoliation, focusing mainly on yellowing and fading fan leaves. At this stage, the goal isn’t to push growth, but to maintain airflow and prevent moisture buildup, which can lead to bud rot or other late-stage issues. By selectively removing what the plant no longer needs, we’re allowing more light to penetrate the canopy and helping the buds finish strong and clean. The fading is beautiful — a sign that the plants are naturally consuming their reserves as they approach the end of their cycle. ⸻ Aroma, Density & Structure Each branch tells a story of energy and balance. The colas are dense and resin-packed, sticky to the touch, with pistils slowly darkening and curling inward. The aroma has deepened, becoming more earthy and hazy, with a sweet undertone that hints at the potency within. These are true haze beauties — towering, expressive, and powerful. Every part of the plant speaks of the care, patience, and intention behind this grow. ⸻ Feeding & Environment We have now completely stopped nutrient feeding. This week’s watering is plain, clean water only, measured at: • EC: 0.3 • pH: 6.8 – 7.2 The goal is to gently flush out any remaining salts and allow the plants to finish on what remains in the super soil. This natural fade encourages better flavor and cleaner results after harvest. Environmental conditions remain steady despite the high outdoor temperatures. With careful management through TrolMaster and Spider Farmer controls, we’re keeping: • Temperature: around 28°C • Humidity: 60–65% • VPD: approximately 1.3 Everything stays balanced and stable to allow the final ripening stage to unfold smoothly. ⸻ Light Adjustments – Simulating the End of the Season To mimic the natural end of the season, we’ve begun gradually lowering the white light intensity, while pushing the red, far-red, and UV spectrums to 100%. This spectrum shift signals to the plants that the cycle is ending, stimulating final ripening, color development, and resin production. The reds encourage energy transfer in the deeper parts of the canopy, while UV light helps enhance secondary metabolite production — the oils, terpenes, and resins that give Roller Coaster Haze her unique flavor and strength. ⸻ Reflections & Recap From seed to this stage, this run has been all about precision, patience, and experimentation. The Roller Coaster Haze responded beautifully to the Aptus + Plagron blend, the controlled environment, and the small adjustments we made each week. The natural fade is now in full display — leaves turning golden and soft while the buds continue to swell and frost over. The plants are enormous and full of life, and the garden is filled with that unmistakable late-flower perfume that makes this stage so magical. ⸻ What to Expect Next Expect: • Final ripening, with trichomes transitioning from cloudy to amber • Continued fading of the fan leaves • Aroma deepening even further, more earthy and hazy notes • Buds hardening and resin maturing for peak potency Not to Expect: • Any new vegetative growth • Heavy feeding — water only from now until harvest ⸻ Final Words Week 8 is the calm before the harvest. The girls are thriving, finishing strong, and showing every bit of love and work poured into them over the past two months. The Roller Coaster Haze truly lived up to her name — a thrilling, rewarding, and beautiful ride. We’re almost there. One or two more weeks, and it’ll be time to cut, dry, and celebrate what nature and care created together.

Day 43 - Starting week 7 and she’s looking good. She’s starting to stretch more every day and flowers are starting to fatten up a bit. Gonna continue with the foxfarm feeding schedule. Can’t wait for her to finish! Day 44 - The room is really starting to smell amazing. Just keeping on with the foxfarm nute schedule until she’s ready to be cut in a couple more weeks. Still plenty of fattening and growing to go. Day 45 - No major changes, she’s just chugging along. Gave a feeding of just water today and tomorrow will be the foxfarm feeding. I love her look and the smell starting to really come from her. Day 46 - No major changes, just continuing to fatten, grow and definitely getting really frosty! Day 47 - What can I say? This thing is an amazing grow and smelling amazing. She just growing and fattening each day. Still to early to really look at the trichs but wanted to look anyway. Got a few decent pics and there’s a few cloudy ones in there. Gave her straight pH’d water today and tomorrow and will give another feeding on Saturday. Day 48 - No big changes, just continuing to fatten up. Held off on watering today, she didn’t really drink munch compared to the GC. Will give her an actual “feeding” tomorrow. Day 49 - All is looking good and she’s plumping up each day. Gave her the foxfarm feeding today. Tomorrow starts week 8 so will continue with the feeding schedule until the end. She’s really starting to smell up the room in my house and loving it.

Quebec Blast is doing well. She is showing first signs of flowering a week into light change. I adjusted nutrition more to her current demands, with a solution change today. Everything is going well, I don't expect a lot of stretching. I could be wrong. I am growing her under a Spider Farmer SE5000 light at 70 percent. She is in New Level Hydro 5 gallon bucket.

The plant gotten bit taller but now she is getting fatter. Because of that I know she is finishing the 1st 3rd of her flowering cycle. So I trimmed her, cleaned all the small bud sites and added more flowering food as top dress. She also got boost
