Yeah nutrients and ppm are not accurate. It’s close enough, but it’s a rough guess off the top of my head. I’ll try to take notes right away, that way I can remain accurate. No signs of mold or mildew. No pests or bugs. A few caught in the fly traps but never any visible “free” fliers. The cold from the two days really had her looking sad and definitely upset her momentum. But now that the heater is back, she’s not freezing with a low of 50F and high of 68F. Within an hour or so of raising the temp back to 70+ (I went straight to 78F) she was looking way better, leaves peeking back up. Lights are down at 30% for the night before going completely off for 4 hours. I’d say 30% for 4 Hours, then OFF for 4, then lights back on at 30% for another 2 and then back to 60% for the remaining time. Im doing this because my Golden Goat pheno is showing increased levels of magnesium deficiency when the intensity is higher. Does that make sense? Maybe the pheno doesn’t like the high UV LED lights? The Blueberry S1 and Mandarine XL as well as the little Critical Purple auto are all managing the light fine. Except I did notice a subtle magnesium deficiency in the MXL at one point, in a few leaves. Maybe the plants would benefit from a larger vascular system?? The Blueberry S1 is just jamming! But I’m upping the CalMag in everyone to help mitigate the delay in the magnesium. YES I could give more Epsom Salt. But a moderately heavy stack of Epsom Salts with a pH of 7, on top of a pH7 foliar feed of Epsom Salt, to immediately see continued signs develop towards a deficiency suggests another element at play. Maybe it’s still not enough Epsom salts?… Or: maybe something to do with the light is creating a high demand for magnesium and thus, the output outweighs the input. Either way, I’m going to be upping the Calcium input to build a bigger vascular system to hopefully solve this dilemma. It’s only noticeable in the GoldenGoat pheno. Barely visible in the MXL and only in one or two leaves total. Whereas the GoldenGoat has every leaf that hits 40-60% maturity develops a small indication of magnesium deficiency, yet it never progresses. Anyways, the Mandarine XL Auto is cruising along just fine. Also I like the anthocyanins coming out in some leaves. Although I attribute that to the high UVs.

Today is day 74 since planting, so in theory I should have about 2 weeks to go. The taller plant will probably make that, the shorter may take an extra week or so. Overall, pretty boring week, as the buds are at the tail end of fattening up, should be right on the edge of ripening. The bud structures of the plant continue to be completely different, with the taller plant having a more typical sativa appearance while the shorter plant has dense, stocky nugs more like an indica. I'm just excited to see the end in sight. At this point in the grow I just want to harvest and start my next batch, but one of my growing mantras is " let the plant tell you when she's ready to be cut" so I will continue to wait impatiently until a vast majority of the trichomes are milky. Thanks as always for checking out my diary ✌️

Skipped a week in my journal due to travels. Had my neighbor water my plants. Having some minor early deficiencies with my photoperiod plants (particularly the chem brulee)... so I decided to go ahead and give everything a solid feeding of Foop Bloom 1, 2 and Sweetener. This is their first ever bottled feeding. Have been running on supersoil and a prayer. Also top dressed everything and mulched with rice straw to help with the soil drying out a bit too quickly. Leaves have been yellowing on all three. Mostly relegated to the interior of the plants. Chem Brulee is looking a bit too yellow overall, as well. French Macaron is a 66in. Chem Brulee is 56in. Pineapple Meatball is 45in. I have a sneaking suspicion that my neighbor didn't water them quite enough while I was gone. Will probably continue with the Foop feedings... probably at least once per week. Don't want to overdo it. Also top dressed with my flowering top dress mix and mulched all plants with a thin layer of rice straw. 8/4 Sprayed with Neem Oil and Castile Soap 8/5 Sprayed with Gravenstein Apple FFJ and OHN 8/6 Sprayed with Neem Oil and Castile Soap (this will likely be the last time I spray with Neem Oil, as I don't want residual oils as buds start swelling. Also fed 1/4 strength FOOP to ensure we head off any deficiencies.

Salutations, fellow cultivators! It's time for the First Week Flower Report on our radiant Epsilon F1, and the journey of green glory continues. We've reached Week 5 from seed, and let me tell you, our botanical champion is stealing the spotlight. The transition to flowering has been nothing short of a magical metamorphosis. Our Epsilon F1, still in the prime of her youth, is taking on the dual role of vegging and flowering simultaneously. It's like she's performing a botanical juggling act, and she's doing it with flair and finesse. The bending saga continues as we guide her through this phase, ensuring she stays low and wide. It's a dance of cultivation, a choreography of growth that keeps our green queen in perfect harmony with the fabric pot. The benefits of this technique are unfolding like petals, promoting an even canopy and maximizing light exposure for a future harvest that promises to be truly extraordinary. As we step into the flowering phase, the environment remains a haven of stability. Room temperatures and humidity are unwavering, providing the optimal conditions for our Epsilon F1 to embark on this blooming adventure. Now, let's talk nutrients! The Aptus Holland super soil mix is still the backbone of our feeding regimen. Micromix Soil, Substrate Buffer Powder, All-in-One Pellet – it's the nutritional symphony that keeps our plant well-fed and flourishing. Mycor Mix, the microbial maestro, continues its support in the root zone, ensuring our Epsilon F1 has a thriving community of microorganisms by her side. In the spirit of continuity, we've introduced a touch of Foliar Applied Liquid Fertilizer, NutriSpray, into the routine. This foliar feast is like a gentle rain of nutrients, providing an extra layer of care during this crucial flowering phase. Our Epsilon F1 is not just a plant; she's a botanical champion, and she's proving it with every leaf and bud. Shout-outs to Royal Queen Seeds for the genetics that keep on giving, and a heartfelt salute to Aptus Holland for crafting nutrients that transform our grow space into a sanctuary of green excellence. Stay tuned, dear readers, as we witness the unfolding chapters of the Epsilon F1 saga. Happy growing, and may your gardens be forever green! As always thank you all for stopping by and for supporting me on this journey, i am super passion about growing and fell blessed to have you all with me on this new journey

Hey folks. No new updates really. still on cruise control. Plants are crazy thirsty. Using 10 gal every 2 days or so. So that ends up at 1.2 gal per plant per day! Insane. These air pots do thoer job as advertised. Next update we are going to amend these babies with the power bloom mix!

Week 10 – Gorilla Girl in Full Bloom! We’ve hit Week 10, and our Gorilla Girl by Sweet Seeds is deep into the flowering stage — and looking absolutely stunning! Standing at around 70 cm, she’s fully adapted to the SCROG setup, with buds forming beautifully across the canopy. Her structure is strong, her leaves vibrant, and the aroma is starting to intensify. We continue feeding her with Xpert Nutrients Bloom Formula, and the results speak for themselves — healthy growth, solid bud formation, and great vitality. Massive thanks to Sweet Seeds for this incredible strain and to Xpert Nutrients for the excellent bloom support. The final stretch is getting close — and it’s looking promising!

The pics and videos are from day 37 of flower. All 3 of these are starting to beef up a little bit, they have perfect bud structures. I'm picking up a creamy kinda vanilla smell on them each having slight variations but what do I know? I really want to grow all 3 phenos again sincenmy clone runs always seem to be just a little bit better. I said this on my last post but for anyone droppin questions in my DMs just comment on a journal I dont go thru the dms its alot of the same questions over and over. That way anyone can see the questions and responses and I'll try to do a better job at responding to comments as well. I always have so many diaries going at once I rarely stop and read them all until the very end when things slow down. Hope everyone had a happy halloween3👊

i started with LST. unfortunately the plant grew too fast in height, which doesn't make it any easier now. next week i'll try it with twine. maybe i should it just let it grow as it likes.
