Heyo growmies! The smell is so potent, i have only grown 4 strains to this point, but this plant seriously knocks all others out of the park when it comes to smell, this is not a strain you put in your backyard without upsetting some neighbours. following last week's EC observation I have lowered my nutrients down to 1.8 ec, keeping the same amount of green sensation. I'll be monitoring the reservoir in any case, there is currently no sign of nutrient lockouts or deficiencies. the only issue I see one or two colas are starting to show some early signs of light stress, So once again I'm faced with a decision, do i turn down light intensity, making the lower canopy suffer, do i leave it and have a few foxtail buds and burnt fan leaves or, do I hst the colas that are getting too close. That's an issue I would like to be moot in future grows, I want to get good enough at training that I can have a completely even canopy. in the middle of the week, when changing out the reservoir, I noticed some buds are starting to show some colors, nothing impressive, just the tips of calyxes and fan leaves turning purple, still, I love the way her flowers look. she's very slow to finish and I cannot wait to see the end result. I am making good progress on my veg closet, i'll now have space for a mother plant,so my hunt for a strain and pheno i love can begin! I will be starting another diary featuring Zamnesia genetics next time, I want to bulk up my stash so i've germinated 2 Runtz and 1 Wedding Cake Automatic. I will move the Timelapse to that grow, it's more interesting to see small plants grow rather than an old girl bulk up her buds. Stay safe and keep growing✊

First week of flower👏 They got 2 hours extra darkness before flip. Not because of scientific evidence, but simply practical. Still looking back to the first weeks of veg. WHAT A MESS and WHAT A MIRACLE 🙏 Coming into flower, they had two defoliation and the latest one was 7/10. Last feed 8/10 Introducing Biobizz CalMag(0.5ml/l) + BioBloom(0.25ml/l)+Topmax(0.25ml/l)+Rootjuice(0.25ml/l) Still 2ml/L Fishmix+BioHeaven(Fishmix will be switched out with BioGrow) 👽👉10/10 VPD is 1.2,-1.3. good airflow above and below canopy. 👽👉11/10 Mild signs of light stress. They will get used to the VPD. Can't wait to feed in a couple of days and see the reaction. Im sure they are really hungry! 👽👉12/10 Waterday** Introducing higher doses of bloom nutes. The Run off PH and EC are all within the limits 👽👉13/10 They lit up after some nutes. They look happy! Let the stretch begin 👽👉14/10 Already see fast growth. Just monitering factors, to make sure the climate is optimal and their are no symptoms. 👽👉15/10 Waterday* Thirsty ladies 👽👉16/10 Last day of week 1 of flower. Everything is going fine, Good airflow, None of the small symptoms has gotten worse, so overall happy ladies! How ever one has a little stunned growth or maybe just a bit behind of going into stretch

Hot damn this is a pretty plant. Enormous fan leaves, tight nodes, and LOTS of em. This plant continues to impress, however, some of her daughters are blowing past her in height, surprisingly. Room is on point, mother is happy and healthy. 55 days or so till harvest:)

Day 36 (Second Grow): Hey everyone! We’re starting a new week and have officially entered the flowering phase! 🌸 We switched the timer to a 12/12 light cycle, and the plants are responding beautifully, growing 5-10 cm every day. Our SCROG net is doing a great job keeping the canopy even, ensuring all parts of the plants get enough light. The Timor shield mantis is happily patrolling the garden, providing natural pest control. We've placed a hygrometer within the canopy to monitor humidity, which sometimes exceeds 70%. We're considering adding a dehumidifier to keep levels in check and prevent mold or mildew. Any tips on managing rapid growth during flowering or keeping humidity levels in check? Let us know in the comments!

I use the demetheart system method, I put this seed to sow in a mixture of vermicompost and vegetable black earth, which I diluted with light mix! 50w LED bar for the moment but I have to change it quickly, it's not powerful enough! I don't know how it happened but the seed came out of the ground by itself!! It’s starting well 😅 I put some mixture on top of it and luckily it came out of the ground like all the others!! let's go to the competition UPDATE : the plants have stretched too much, the clone light is not bright enough, I'm going to move them!!

Die Mission Choco Haze – Oder die süße Versuchung des Wahnsinns ​Willkommen, werte Chronisten, zu unserem neuesten botanischen Experiment. Unser Studienobjekt ist die Choco Haze, eine Haze-Sorte von Zamnesia, die mit einem verlockenden Versprechen kommt: Sie vereint die geistige Energie einer Sativa mit einem verführerischen Schokoladenaroma. Doch wie wir aus Erfahrung wissen, sind solche Verheißungen oft mit einer komplexen Realität verbunden. Wir werden dieses genetische Mysterium mit wissenschaftlicher Akribie sezieren, um zu sehen, ob sie hält, was ihr Name verspricht, oder ob sie uns am Ende nur mit Schokolade und leeren Versprechen dastehen lässt. ​1. Genetik & Stammbaum: Das Erbe der 80er Jahre ​Die Choco Haze ist eine Kreuzung aus der legendären OG Chocolate Thai und der robusten Cannalope Haze. Diese genetische Paarung hat eine fast reinrassige Sativa-Schönheit hervorgebracht, die mit 90 % Sativa und 10 % Indica eine überwiegend zerebrale Wirkung verspricht. Was sie so verheißungsvoll macht, ist die Kombination aus dem berühmten, erdigen Schokoladenaroma der OG Chocolate Thai und der Widerstandsfähigkeit der Cannalope Haze. Sie gilt als "sehr widerstandsfähig gegen Schädlinge" und "einfach zu growen" , was sie, laut Hersteller, auch für weniger erfahrene Züchter zu einer guten Wahl macht. Doch wie wir im nächsten Kapitel sehen werden, ist die Wirklichkeit manchmal etwas widersprüchlicher, und eine gute Planung ist unerlässlich. ​2. Wuchs, Größe & der Platz-Albtraum ​Getreu ihrer Sativa-Dominanz ist die Choco Haze keine Sorte für Platzangstgeplagte. Sie wächst zu einem wahren Biest heran, das schnell einen Indoor-Space füllen kann und in der Höhe bis zu 160 cm erreichen kann. Für uns Züchter bedeutet das: Wer sie nicht durch konsequentes Training wie Low Stress Training (LST) oder Topping in Schach hält, riskiert, dass sie den Grow-Raum dominiert. Ihre Blütezeit ist mit 9 bis 10 Wochen für eine Sativa-dominante Pflanze als "schnell" zu bezeichnen. Doch Vorsicht: Das bedeutet nicht, dass sie keine Aufmerksamkeit benötigt. Ihre schiere Größe und ihre buschige Struktur erfordern ein wachsames Auge. ​3. Aroma & Terpene: Wenn Schokolade auf Zitrone trifft ​Das Aroma der Choco Haze ist eine olfaktorische Zeitreise. Zuerst nimmt man eine fruchtige Basis mit deutlichen Zitrusnoten wahr, gefolgt von der süßen, leichten Schokoladennote, die das Geschmackserlebnis abrundet. Dieses einzigartige Geschmacksprofil ist das Ergebnis einer wissenschaftlichen Komposition von Terpenen. Die Zamnesia-Variante weist eine Terpen-Grundlage aus Ocimen und Limonen auf. Limonen ist das Terpen, das für die belebende Fruchtigkeit verantwortlich ist, während Ocimen mit seinen süßen, pflanzlichen Noten zur Komplexität beiträgt. Die Schokoladennote ist das Resultat eines komplexen Zusammenspiels weiterer aromatischer Verbindungen aus ihrer OG Chocolate Thai-Abstammung. ​4. Wirkung & Anwendung: Geistige Klarheit statt Couch-Lock ​Die Choco Haze ist das genaue Gegenteil eines Betäubungsmittels. Sie löst einen überwiegend zerebralen, erhebenden und euphorischen Rausch aus, der nicht in lähmender Sedierung endet. Die Wirkung wird als „mental, befreiend und energetisch“ beschrieben, die die Stimmung hebt und sich perfekt für kreative Tätigkeiten oder gesellige Anlässe eignet. Mit einem THC-Gehalt von bis zu 19 % bei der Zamnesia-Variante ist sie beachtlich potent. ​5. Spezielle Besonderheiten: Der Stolperstein der Anfälligkeit ​Die Choco Haze ist eine Diva, die ihre kleinen Marotten hat. Während sie als robust und widerstandsfähig gegen Schädlinge gilt , berichten andere Quellen, dass diese Sorte eine geringe Schimmelresistenz aufweist. Dies ist ein kritischer Punkt, der eine akribische Belüftung und eine sorgfältige Überwachung in der späten Blütephase erfordert. Die Wahrheit liegt irgendwo dazwischen, und der kluge Züchter geht immer vom Schlimmsten aus. Sie belohnt Ihre ungeteilte Aufmerksamkeit jedoch mit einem einzigartigen High, das sie zur perfekten Wahl für alle macht, die eine klare, fokussierte Wirkung suchen. Woche 1: Die Keimungwoche * Tag 0.1: Nach dem m 10 Stündigen Einweichen in 1 % H₂O₂ wurde der Samen ins Substrat gepflanzt, [Easy Plug]. * Tag 0.2: Die Geduldsphase beginnt. Wir warten darauf, dass der Samen seine Schale aufbricht. * Tag 0.3/0.4: Die ersten Anzeichen des Lebens sind sichtbar. Das Keimblattpaar bricht durch das Substrat, nachdem wir eine erste Wölbung der Substratoberfläche beobachtet hatten. Wir haben daraufhin das DLI von ca. 12 nach 16 erhöht, um dem Keimling genügend Licht zu geben. * Tag 0.5: Wir haben die Abdeckung entfernt, um die relative Luftfeuchtigkeit auf ca. 80 % zu senken und die Lichtintensität auf 20 DLI erhöht. * Tag 0.6: Alles unter Kontrolle. Die Pflanze zeigt vitales Wachstum. Die ersten "echten Blätter entfalten sich und das Pflänzchen hat den Easy Plug bereits durchwurzelt. Der nächst größere muss her. * Tag 0.7: Die Lichtkuppel wurde entfernt. Die relative Luftfeuchtigkeit sinkt nun auf 60–65 %, was die Pflanze zum Aufbau eines starken Wurzelsystems anregt. * Düngung & Messwerte: Kein Dünger oder Wasser notwendig.

This week was amazing to see the growth really start. Felt like a little kid again when observing the first pointy leaves that come through! To think these 9 are going to provide us with the most beautiful, versatile plant on our planet, is just awesome. Eradicating the need to fuel crime by putting money in dealers pockets, and taking full control of the wonders I’ll be inhaling and consuming. They didn’t need much attention day to day, just moving windowsills morning/afternoon, and watering when the soil/pots looked dry. Thankfully haven’t had much trouble with them, although one of the FastBuds original AK’s isn’t looking so great. She’s not as developed as the others as you can see. She’s not received any different treatment or water or anything different at all to the others. Maybe I need to investigate more. I’ve decided to try stay as organic as possible with this grow. With that said, I’ve been brewing up a nettle tea to make a good nitrogen feed for the girls. Nitrogen is said to be needed most during veg stage, so preparing as much as I can.

Hola amigo! 💐 Cuarta semana para estas Dos Green Crack F1 Automatic. 💐 _ LLENO DE BOTONES _ Ellas son realmente rápidas, de momento estoy muy contento con cómo funciona esto para mí. Siempre he tenido un poco de rechazo a las automáticas, no les voy a mentir 🤞. Ahora ese pensamiento desaparece y he aprendido la técnica ideal para darles tamaño en su momento vegetativo 🤜🤛 La línea de @xpertnutrients me convence mucho, el agua inicial tiene un pH de 7.7 aprox y con la mezcla en el orden adecuado el pH se regula sólo! Trabajan en sincronía con el suelo vivo del fondo, que contiene la poca humedad de la maceta textil. Ph: 6.1-6.5 EC: 700 PPM 020+/020- HR: 65% 5+5-. C⁰: 19-26% Manta térmica 24 x 7 con plato. . !! .19 horas de luz: 2 x TS600 LATERALES. !! .15 horas de luz: + 100Watts CENTRAL. !! . La idea es tener un pico de luz asimilando la naturaleza pero sin dejar de lado los soportes laterales, el led central trabaja dos horas después y se apaga dos horas antes del ciclo lumínico diario 🤜🤛 PREPARÁNDOSE PARA LA EXPLOSIÓN DE LUZ QUE VIENE!

420 Fastbuds Week 1 Amnesia Zkittlez Auto What up grow family. Started another yet amazing strain for this run. Looking forward to the weeks to come and see what they'll become. During the germination process 48hrs after putting the seeds in the soil I noticed a tap root coming out the top of the soil. So after digging the one out and realized it sprouted upside down the 2 codylindens do have a little yellowing on the tips but over all looks healthy. All in all Happy Growing

Week 3 (Day 21) Flower- This was the last week of messing about, no more defoliating or bending and flexing. Did a heavy defoliation. Noticed some yellowing of the lower level leaves, added a few +mls of the grow and bud bottles, will water mid week with straight ph’d water (6.5) as I don’t want my medium to get to high, or get nutrient lockout. these nutes uptake best between 5.8 and 6.2, otherwise rolling along nicely. 😎💨

On day 1 I changed out my reservoir. I lowered my nutes to 650 ppm(25% reduction). I adjusted the PH down to 6.1. My left plant has some burnt tips from either PH shift or over fertilization. My hope is that the lower ppm will help to resolve the issue before it spreads. On day 2 I adjusted the reservoirs PH from 6.3 to 5.9. On day 3 the reservoirs PH is 6.0. I installed my new 200 watt HLG Rspec. I adjusted PPFD readings to 700-1300 PPFD on all tops. On day 4 I adjusted the reservoirs PH from 5.8 to 6.2. On day 5 I adjusted the reservoirs PH from 6.4 to 6.0. I diluted my nutrients in my reservoir by removing one gallon of nutrients from the rez and and adding 2 gallons of straight tap water to the rez. This brought the nute concentration from 770 ppm to 540 ppm as the plants will be entering the ripening stage in a few days and they have too much nitrogen judging by the extremely dark green leaves and burnt leaf tips on some branches of the left side plant. The buds seem slightly smaller then my last run which may be due to an excess of nitrogen and maybe not enough light as some of my tops are taller then the others making proper PPFD challenging. All in all the girls are coming along nice and I look forward to the final weeks of flowering 😀 On day 6 I adjusted the reservoirs PH from 5.9 to 6.2. I think I have halted the nute burn as I haven't seen it progressing any more on the leaves. I will continue to monitor closely during these final weeks. The trichome production is increasing with some trichs on top of colas starting to go cloudy. The pistils are turning brown with roughly 40-50% are turning brown all signs I'm getting closer to the harvest window 😆. I dimmed my light to give 600-1000 PPFD to tops. On day 7 I reduced my temps to 75 during the day and 68 at night. I adjusted the PH of the reservoir from 6.6 to 6.1. My reservoirs ppm was too high so I diluted the rez with 2 gal of tap water. This brought it down to 480ppm. The average ppfd to all 14 tops is 604 with no top receiving more than 1000 ppfd

Stretched vigorously once she started to transition to flower. Developed potency early in flower! She was LST'd weekly, starting week 2. She was also gently lolipopped a few times, to maintain growth towards 5-6 nodes only.

Welcome back to Colorado Gnome Grown. This week the gnome’s have been busy with the irrigation system. The water is stored in a 5g container and I mix the feed in it and it gets feed every time I water, which is twice a day for 1 minute, or until the plants drip. The plants are setting on a rack so that the water can drain away from the plant and into a tray. The plan is to buy Big Buds the first of the month to keep on hand to finish up in 4 weeks. Cookie Monster is 4in today and Noel is 2in, and both are starting to grow their bud site. Next week I will Top and defoliate for the first time. Well that’s all this time, tune next week for more information on; Colorado Gnome Grown!!!😎

D24 - 10/02/2025 Last week was really good, none of the girls showed any signs of toxicity after the full strength feed, which is good. I’m already seeing signs of pre-flowering on some of the girls, next week for sure we enter flower mode. Applied some LST to the girls and some defoliation. Fan leaves were taking a lot of space, now internal nodes should have more light to use. Not going too crazy on this though. Unfortunately snapped a branch of Northern Lights #1 while applying the LST, must take extra care next time. Still haven’t changed the reservoir, should do that later this week. — D27 - 13/02/2025 Changed the reservoir and mixed nutrients for pre-flower. I’ve been adjusting the LST, but other than that there’s not much of an update. Girls are looking really great and growth is exploding. PPFD is around ~500 on canopy level. — D28 - 14/02/2025 Did another defoliation session. Went a bit more heavy this time. Now we let them recover for a few days.
