Heya peeps, we still growing and showing, I guess summers here and everybody’s doing the do lol.

I’ve been on the road on and off for the last couple weeks but things have started slowing down and I’m able to get back into focusing on the grows.

.

Ethos Grape Diamonds is looking fierce these days, she’s rocketing along in flower and is shaping up super sexy and frosty af too.

I think she’s starting to kick out some delish smells as well, kinda communion wine-dank weed smelling and I’m here for it lol.

A pic or three….

Ethos grape diamonds hitting wk4 of flower, got another defoliation.

Feed is holding steady at full strength goldleaf and lotus flower fuel, 10ml and .5tsp respectively.

I did one last foliar right as the budlets started popping off and going forward I’ll add a dash of the sea-k straight into the feed mix.

Pics are pre and post defoliation.

Then there's this thing!

Ethos grape diamonds mdwk3 since flip and she's rocking along.

We got budlets and frost building and she's just a lovely burly plant!

I got her maxed out on food with 10ml of goldleaf per feed and I'm using the lotus flower fuel as well.

She also is still getting the weekly foliar of sea k and just seems to be thriving.

Ethos Grape Diamonds looking especially fierce today, wk2 since the flip.

Still getting 10ml goldleaf and I’m supplementing that with the following..

.5tsp lotus flower fuel per gallon feed

Weekly foliar with the full dose sea-k

Today she got 5ml fishshit as well.

She has started drinking about 1.5gal a day and that’s up from 1gal a day last week.

All the visible markers I can see point to her being super happy and I’m so here for it.

.

I’m a lazy “Lebowski” grower, and on top of that I am prone to deep depression lol yay, I have just let plants go to waste thru grows in the past because yeah.

I have recently found my garden groove again and I’m really enjoying it lol.

I’m happy and that makes my plants happy.

They’re happy and that makes me happy.

A beautiful positive feedback loop for sure!

No one cares so let’s get to the pics lol.

🤙

Pressed up some rosin last night watching the ufc fights, used kief from the ethos thug roze I just chopped and dried.

Just did up a couple little boogies, I wanted to see how it would press and sample before i committed a big buncha fresh weed/kief to the cause.

It passed with flying colors lol, now I gotta find a new rig and banger!!!

.

I’m using kief I’ve collected from the trimbin, I used a 90micron bag, double bagged actually, and pressed it at 180f for 4 minutes.

.

Smells like danky fresh cut flower bouquets, wifeys till sweats it’s lavender and I couldn’t tell ya what lavender smelled like so I shake my head and agree lol.

I get fresh cut flower tho something fierce, almost like a rose petal smell or something

Ethos Grape Diamonds day 8ish of 12/12 flip and she’s looking pretty alright if I say so myself.

I’m trying out lotus flower fuel on this plant and she doesn’t seem to mind it so far.

Currently getting 10ml goldleaf and .5tsp of lotus flower fuel and I’ll stick right here until stretch stops and budlets start stacking, then I’ll readjust feeds again if need be

The ethos grape diamonds gal has been flipped to 12/12.

Feed wise I just hit 9ml/gal tapwater of the goldleaf and I’ll bump that up to 10ml for a couple feeds as we go thru stretch.

I’m kinda digging the sea-k from greenleaf so I’m definitely going to keep using it, I’ll foliar up to the actual buds forming and then I’ll switch to adding it into the feed.

Somebody in discord asked me about my lights, I don’t think I’ve posted that up yet but in the small tent with the vegger I am using the spiderfarmer se3000 and I’ve got an old ass mars quantum board as a fill in.

Not the best lights I’ve used but it’s what I got atm, they’ll do just fine lol.

I am recording this ethos grape diamonds in IG but the posts keep getting taken down so I’m gonna focus on her in this thread, where it's safe to post lol, as she goes thru flower and the chop.

I went ham on it again and defol/lolli a bit more and I’m finally satisfied lol.

I can see inside down to the main stalk again, lots of good airflow and room to stretch without getting too funky and jumbled up.

This gal was heavily heavily trained starting right around week 3, I built out a frame with bamboo stakes, a crosspiece I used to anchor the main stem and guide some lateral branches, there was a supercropping of the main stem followed by a topping, more tie downs and bends, and ofc defoliations.

If they’ll upload I’ve got some videos of the early training sessions, for those inclined to nerd out and watch other homegrow nerds do things to weed plants lol

Ethos grape diamonds r2 week 11 of veg.

I’m flipping her to 12/12, can’t wait any longer even tho she could use that transplant.

She’s on the goldleaf feed, and we are sitting at 8ml/gal tap currently.

I’ll bump that up one more time thru the flip and stretch, and then I’ll start backing off the goldleaf as the plant gets thru bloom.

I’m gonna keep doing the sea-k foliar up to the time actual buds start, and then I’ll probably water/feed with it a couple more times to get us through bloom

If I can figure out a way to do some video editing I wanna make a short horror movie style clip of the hanging ethos plant.

It’s drying down in my murder basement on a clothesline

I have chopped a few since the last update, strawpie, and the outlier twins are down and I just chopped the big ethos thug roze.

I’ve since reset my big tent and have 4 sprouties doing sprouty things in it, with an ethos grape diamonds about 2!weeks from the flip in its own tent.

All pics are of the ethos thug roze, she is so much plant lol.

Vegger for about 4 months due to reasons, and she was in flower for 10 weeks or so, and honestly could have gone another 2 weeks east I think.

I think it is going to easily set a new personal best for single plant harvest, current best is 12 zips off a fast buds monster.

I did not dial in this grow at all, my feed routine was an experiment to see how little goldleaf I could use and get a healthy plant across the finish line.

I succeeded in that measure, I averaged a feed dose of 3ml/gal goldleaf to tapwater, but I can definitely tell where the plant was underfed and maybe vegged far too long lol.

I made notes and I move on to the next plants!

I'm kinda nervous about the new cycle, I've never used Gaia Green before, this could get ugly or it could be a beautiful glorious mess!

The chops have begun, strawpie is down and I’ll be chopping the outlier z twins later today.

The big gal gets wacked later in the week

Current vegger, ethos grape diamonds r2 week 8 of veg.

Gonna do another big training tie down session, switch lights out, and then we gonna flippy flip.

Fb strawberry pie with a wicked fade going on, I bent the main stem late in flower and I’m wondering if that's contributing to this gothy emo looking coloration lol

Another week or so and it gets the chop

Mixed tent lookin-

The bloomer is the fast buds strawpie, and the big trained out bushy vegger is ethos grape diamonds r2, once the ethos has the tent to itself im training a bit more and flipping.

The cups are my seeds waiting to pop.

Still waiting on plants to finish and seeds to pop, this is a terrible spot to be in lol.

I’m eyebanging this big gal everyday tho

Ethos thug roze

4 month veg, week 8.5 of flower

Stellar garden Baked 🤩 I remember you raving about the Strawberry Pie and you have another going now 🙌 Have you tried their Strawberry Gorilla? I believe they are similar but stronger. Idk 🤣. Fastbuds has alot of Strawberry varieties now which makes it hard to decide which to grow.

Thanks for sharing brother 🙌☮️❤️

Hey there Gro.yo.own, those are some beautiful plants 😍 Can't wait to see how they turn out along with the new round! Shoot me your insta so we can get this on our page!!

New round, 4/20 cycle set for insta-transplant.

Tastebudz genetics sticky mango autos and moonberry pie auto, and the super natural seeds ice cream cake photo.

I am trying out a new to me feed routine built around Gaia Green, trying to get into some "organic" style habits, amended coco loco and top dresses for the feed.

Using gg all purpose, bloom, and glacial dust as the main part of the mix and will be using GG topdressing, worm castings, mykos, recharge, and Epsom thru out the grow.

Excited to try something a little different!
