Due to construction and revamping of our space, we had to leave all seedlings in their germination dome for approximately a month before getting them into veg. In order to not run into any space issues within the small dome, these young plants were kept under a low-wattage fluorescent tube to avoid any growth which may have been "too vigorous." VEG WEEK 1: 03/09/2021: (Image 1) Each plant was potted into, and fed with the following nutrients during transplant: 1. 5l FF F1 medium 2. GHF: Biogrow - 15g worked into medium 3. Wormcastings (workd into medium and astop dress) 4. Organics Matter Mycoroot Supreme -placed at the bottom of the planting hole. 5. Watered each plant with a Silicon Plus feed solution . 07/09/2021: (Image 2) - All plants are now in 5l pos with Freedom Farms F1 medium, and are in their new veg home under a 3500K 320W Quantum Board. - The 3 weakest seedlings of the total 19 seeds (1x Crit and 2x PC) were placed on the left side of the tent, and in different pots, as they are obviously struggling and may not even make it into our final flower room.

The lady is growing slowly. The balcony location is not the best spot. A few more sun hours, would be better. That's life :D. The Flower time starts. In the main the first buds are visible. LST goes on. A big thanks to bud trainers, your clips working well. Day 27 Photoshooting

Rückblickend betrachtet hätte ich sie auch noch ein paar Tage länger stehen lassen können. Aber da ich kein Sea of Green habe werden nie alle Buds gleich reif sein.

I have continued the diary as have a orange sherbet ff still on her 5th week and would like too document her at full potential. Unlike my other she did not preflower early and has thrived doing very well compared too the other orange sherbet who unfortunatley at the end did not go so well come harvest. I will show both harvests once this girl has finished. I expect her too be flying into forming buds this week hoping all sites give generously as it seems they are all thick with pistils as can see 🌱 lollipopping has benefitted from what I can tell. Intensity of light reduced hopefully no issues to come from that as I seen leaves tips burnt slightly so changed light 💡

Lebby was harvested! 🙏 After 5 days drying in a very dry and warm room, I had 65% to 62% in the jars. Ugh. Not opening themfor too long now. 😬 I love smoking the weed already hehehe. 🖤 It's great! 🙏 I think I harvested just in time, there are no seeds to smell when the weed is burned. Without the nanas I would've waited one more week. But there are really nanas all over. 🍌 My fault, my pH pen broke and I didn't recognize how much pH minus I used.. Also I forgot to water once when I had the flu. 😰 But I got a much better pH and EC pen now. 🎉 🎊 This lady needs a bit of dedication during veg and during stretch, but then she pretty much dances on her own. 😍 💃 Thanks to all of you, to SSSC, to the Gods and to the predatory mites! 💚 I'm just the tool. 😉😇 Look at the seeds, they are super beautiful, little miracles. 😍 Each holding so much potential, ready to burst into existence. ✨ ____________________________________________________ SPECIAL DIARY CONTENTS: Week 1: Collecting pollen 🙈+ adding mycorrhizae 🍄 Week 4: Applying LST :👉 Week 7: Emergency supercropping 💪 Week 8: Pollination 🐝 Week 12: my emotional reaction to spidermites 🕷️ 😱 Week 13: my actual reaction to spidermites 🔫 _______________________________________ About Black Lebanon cannabis seeds: Black Lebanon is a real treat for the true connoisseur of old school strains. This is the original Black Lebanon dating back from the 1980's, a true Hash plant. The producer has been busy with this strain since 2008 and selected the best mothers out of hundreds of plants. This strain is made from two original Black Lebanon landraces, a crossed between Lebanon #1 and Lebanon #5. Of course we took into account our desires towards quality, potency, taste, effect and of course a good yield. 😊 😇😍🧞‍♂️ 💫 We are very pleased and proud with the successful breeding results. Black Lebanon is one of the strongest landrace strains from Lebanon. She is naturally very resistant to high temperatures and dry climates thanks to the Lebanese landrace genetics. The plants are very dark green with some leaves showing purple colourations. Some can look almost black. This makes these plants a real treat for the eye. The spectacular appearance is enhanced by the glittering white resinous trichomes which really stand out against the dark foliage of the plant. The taste is a little fruiter than the original Black Lebanon, more flavoursome with less of an earthy taste. The production levels are medium to high, depending on the growers skills and lights used. We recommend a minimum of 600W per m2 of HPS, or perhaps around 400W/m2 of quality LED. In optimum conditions 500 gram per m2 is possible. She grows between 80cm and 1.50 m tall and is also very suited to the SOG grow technique. SCROG is possible but takes longer because she isn't the stretchiest of strains. Black Lebanon is very sticky and resinous with THC levels reaching in between 16% and 22% The indoor flower period is around 60-65 days. Outdoors she can be harvested around the middle of October. Indoors, she is very resistant to stress and high temperatures. The genetic background is very strong and the team were surprised and impressed with the resin levels, terpene profile and bud production. It's not very common to see a plant this vigorous with such growth speed. So if you want to impress yourself and your stoner friends try it out now and enjoy the relaxing vibes and old school memories from the 1980's. get it here: https://supersativaseedclub.com/cannabis-seeds/black-lebanon.html#/26-seeds-3_feminized_seeds

Fast Buds White Widow is a strain that is easy to grow she can handle some stress if you have issues. She makes a massive bud on the main stem mine was 80 grams freshly trimmed!! She doesn't stretch much if your growing in a confined space. I'll repost what the total is dried and cured and smoke report as well. Smoke Report Update she's Earthy, Piney, with sweat citrus flavors, smooth pull, earthy, piney up front then then that sweat citrus when you exhale, really clean and smooth enjoyably smoke hits you quickly and then mellows out she has the ability to change your motivation level but not put you on the couch the rest of the day or night for the most part!!! 70% Indica 30% sativa. The total weight of the grow of 535 grams wet weight, when dried out to it was a total of 178 grams dry. That's a loss of 67% of the weight. She's a plant with thricomes that cover the fat, stinky, and sticky buds. I didn't have any problems with her. She can take some nuts for a autoflower as she never showed any signs of nutrition stress. Easy grow, strong plant, dense sticky buds, she smells sweat with a earthy note. I would recommend to any grower new grower you really can't mess her up, advanced grower she will give you a great harvest. Continue to grow your own medicine if you can or grow for someone you know that can't continue to make a difference in lives!!! Growdiaries is a great place to learn and connect with other like minded individuals!! Stay growing my friends!!! Thank you for looking at the diary!!!

Who knew managing 3 phenos would be this hard! Lol CSK 1 (Far left) - This plant was doing fine until I checked the PPM and it was at 2300 😳 - I’m going to skip nutes for 1 week to see if it drops. CSK 2 (Middle) - This plant has the slowest uptake of all three plants! However, I did test its PPM at 1900. I will skip nutes for 1 week and see if it drops. CSK 3 (Far Right) - This plant is the second fastest uptake and was tested at 980 PPM so this is a fairly hungry plant. I noticed the leaves on this plant appears yellow. I suspect this might be Nitrogen + Potassium deficiency. I will only water this plant with those specific nutrients this week at a low dose. Additional, I added another 3k LED for supplement lighting. Tested the PPD and lowered the light intensity. To minimize the loss in heat, I increased the height of the LED lights.

Structured Defoliation & Light Redistribution GMO Cookies — Week 7 From Seed (12/12 From Seed) ( Week 2 Flower, kind a because this run is 12/12 from seed, developmental phases overlap. While we are in Week 7 from seed, flower morphology places these plants approximately in Week 2–3 of true flower formation.) ⸻ 🔁 Quick Recap — How We Got Here This run was flipped 12/12 from seed. No topping. No high-stress training. No aggressive manipulation. Only: • Strategic leaf bending • Gentle positioning • Natural apical development • Controlled mineral feeding through the AutoPot system • Occasional top-feed inputs when needed We let the plants express themselves first. That decision matters. Because what you’re seeing now — the uniform tops, the consistent structure, the even canopy rhythm — is the result of restraint early on. No panic training. No overcorrection. Just guidance. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment & Feeding — Why We Changed Nothing This week, deliberately, we changed nothing. • Day temp: ~28 °C • RH: ~65% • EC: 2.4 • pH: 6.5 • Height: ~40–80 cm • LED lighting (multi-layer + under-canopy support) Some growers see 28 °C in flower and panic. But context matters. Under LED lighting: • Leaf surface temp runs ~2–4 °C cooler than ambient • There is no heavy infrared load like under HPS • Transpiration behaves differently So if: • Room = 28 °C • Leaf ≈ 24–26 °C • RH = 65% Leaf-level VPD sits in a comfortable early-flower range. We do not calculate room VPD in isolation. We observe plant behavior. And the plants confirm stability: • Upright posture • No tacoing • No clawing • Strong internode spacing • Healthy green without tip burn We are not chasing numbers. We are paying attention to them. That’s different. ⸻ 🌿 Feeding Strategy — Why EC 2.4 Is Intentional These GMO Cookies are evolving fast. At Week 2 flower, they are: • Stretching • Building structural mass • Initiating bud sites • Increasing water consumption EC 2.4 is not a random number. It matches: • Growth speed • AutoPot constant availability • Mineral shuttle stability • Transpiration rate under LED Because AutoPots provide continuous feed, the goal isn’t spikes — it’s consistency. No dramatic increases. No sudden drops. Just stable availability. That’s why we did not change anything this week. When plants are stable, changing variables creates instability. ⸻ Defoliation — Controlled Intervention, Not Reaction This update follows the exact chronological order of the session. Before defoliation, we observed: • Mid-canopy density • Lower airflow restriction • Interior shading • Competing secondary growth The intervention focused on: • Removing obstructive fan leaves • Cleaning lower interior branches (lollipopping) • Improving air channels • Increasing light penetration • Prioritizing top flower sites No stripping. No shock. Just structure correction. ⸻ 🔥 Under-Canopy Light Marks — Addressed Transparently Minor leaf surface damage was observed on some lower leaves. Important distinction: This is not nutrient burn. This is not systemic stress. These were: • Localized photon exposure spots • Leaves positioned too close to under-canopy diodes • Surface-level tissue damage Cosmetic. Monitored. Adjusted. Under-canopy lighting increases lower bud potential — but placement must be respected. This is part of dialing in layered LED systems. We document it openly. Because transparency builds trust. ⸻ 🌱 Why the Plants Look So Uniform Three plants. Very similar rhythm. Why? • Stable feeding • Stable environment • No high-stress events • Even canopy exposure • Gentle early leaf positioning instead of hard training Consistency early → uniformity later. This is not luck. It’s controlled inputs. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Week You will likely see: • Stretch slowing down • Clear bud stacking beginning • Pistil density increasing • Water consumption rising • Slight increase in aroma intensity You should NOT expect: • Massive swelling yet • Heavy frost development • Final bud density We are still in structural flower. GMO builds weight slightly later. Patience is part of the architecture. ⸻ 🧠 The Philosophy Behind This Week When everything is stable: Do not interfere. Many growers change parameters weekly just to feel active. But cultivation is not about constant movement. It’s about: Observation → Understanding → Adjustment only when required. This week required observation. Not correction. ⸻ 🙏 Gratitude To the GrowDiaries platform — thank you for the space to document honestly.

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.
