Week 7 seems to be going fine from my house and then I go to the grow 🤣 well fukc me I’ve ran into few problems let um get abit too dey for their liking the week leading up to Christmas / gave um a good feeding with week 7s nutes and peeled back abit of the fan leaves to get more light around , humidifier broke on us didn’t notice for 2 days so tent was 70 percent humid when gone to check , new humidifier replaced and back on track as I said earlier peeled back a few fan leaves think maybe a few too many plants started showing signs of stress soon after again these are autos and I think it could of stunted if not heavily affected the end product also we noticed about 3 weeks into this grow we had way too many plants in the tent starting to see the effects off that now a lot of nonsense on the lower branches and only really the top Lola’s getting the light and the mass , all the same seed bar 4 plants and very differnt plants all in all , definitely not a strain that’s been mastered about half are tall and spaced out and the others are short and very stacked from my own eye I’d say the shorter and more stacked buds will be the ones bearing more fruit the taller ones look very skinny and airy still

All fine, keep fight with high humidity. Plant B get some yellow leafs, waiting answers about it in grow question. Fun fact: plant b (no toping) smells muuuuuuuuch better.

⚗️ FERMAKOR – Neutralisation & Filtering (Final Stage) 🧠 “From reactor to bottle — the first real batch.” --- 13.10.25 — Pulled about 1L of the finished FERMAKOR extract into a 5L bucket and added roughly 2L of clean water. Let it sit for a bit to calm down and cool off before touching the pH. Sample came back around pH 6.8–7, totally non-caustic — exactly what I wanted before acidifying for storage. Started adding phosphoric acid (59%) slow and steady, stirring between each pour. Ended up using about 50ml total before the colour flipped red on the GHE drops, landing the mix right around pH 3–3.5. No foam, no violent reaction, just smooth. Smell turned clean and metallic-sweet — the kind of smell that tells you it’s done reacting. --- Filtering setup Used a pillowcase and cheesecloth layered together as the filter stack. The pillowcase handled all the heavy junk, the cheesecloth grabbed the fine silt. It came out thick, dark amber, glossy — zero grit. I’ll leave it to rest overnight, open, just to let any tiny bubbles or gases clear out before bottling. --- Final note This batch is officially FERMAKOR B Concentrate V1.0 (1:4). Storage pH locked between 3.3–3.8, ready to bottle and shake before use. This one’s rich in P, K, Mg, and micros, while Calcium Nitrate will handle the N and Ca on the A-part side. --- 🌱 Closing the diary That’s it for this round — extraction phase complete. I’ll be closing this diary here and opening a new one called “FERMAKOR A+B Test Grow – V1.” Testing starts Monday, 20.10.2025 on a single plant. Time to see if this brew actually works in the tent. 📸 All images videos to be added later — filter setup, pH colour, and final concentrate.

Day 43. Plant isn't growing much, cut all nutrients for the week, just water, seems better right now but hope she gets taller.

Getting ready to flip to flower in a week or two with some trellis work. I should've shaved the legs of these ladies but I was unprepared for clones this week so I'll probably shave them this weekend. I'm happy with the results thus far. 🎋🌲🍃

Some more growth, still underwhelmed with this grow. Think I’m going to order the mars hydro ts1000 as this ts600 seems to be too weak for my tent

2nd week flower starts good, can't see any pistols yet but they started stretching. That's ok because temperatures are a little too high for flowering stage and that could cause foxtailing A little slow to kick in the flowering stage but they still look great on day 66, end of the week. I decided to give them less water but water every day

Always quite straight forward once the autopots kick in. They have been in flower 5 days and already the five fems have shown their sex , just waiting on tht regular Cuppa t. This week just pH water and foliar feed with my homemade KnF nutrients. Recieved a lumatek Attis 300w to test this week, so am very happy so far as the plants are thriving since I put it in and flipped

Surprised by how well the water is wicked to the medium from the water bottle, it took a long time, but wick works as intended. I was unsure how much if any nutrient would be transferred via wick but the high salt content altered pH at certain parts. Right before the symptoms arose I decided to supercrop the stem top to bottom on one plant, shortly thereafter the burning happened from the same plant from running 8.0 pH, and nutrient uptake ground to a halt on the plant that was dealing with stress. She doesn't seem happy. Remedied with aluminum sulfate, things seem to be coming back to normal. I need to be more careful with salts. I need MOAR knowledge. How many weeks shall we veg? Going to take a while to fill that canopy with just two plants, should probably start topping now but I'll wait until pH problem Is remedied first, a couple more days hopefully 🙏. I defoliated maybe 6 bigger leaves that had burned yellow on one plant, as it comes back to optimal range, this will be a good opportunity to observe the subtle differences that early defoliation can make. Added a pound of tourmaline powder and biochar, both increase soil urease and invertase activities. *2025 Didn't charge the biochar skewing my ph drastically. Urease is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of urea into CO2 and NH3 and is a key component in the nitrogen cycle in soils. Invertase (d-fructofuranosidfructohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.26) is the enzyme that capable both break down α-1,4-glycosidic linkage between d-glucose and d-fructose of sucrose and transferring αβ-D-O-fructofuranoside residue to an acceptor substrate (Toledo et al., 2019). Since tourmaline is widely distributed in the natural environment and has many excellent physical and chemical properties including radiating far infrared energy, permanently releasing negative ions, producing an electrostatic field, releasing rare microelements, and stimulating the growth and metabolism of microorganisms and plants, tourmaline had been conducted to alleviate potential environmental pollution. Perfect for how much seaweed I've added just incase.
