Hello Growmies, As we step into week 15 of flowering with our Northern Lights by Zamnesia, the journey gets more intricate and exciting. Let's delve into this week's updates: Our Northern Lights star is proving to be quite finicky, especially with nutrient uptake. I've observed signs of lockout whenever the EC (Electrical Conductivity) level rises above 1.7. Thankfully, the pH levels are stable, so no concerns there. After some experimentation, I believe we've found her sweet spot at an EC of 1.5. This delicate balance is key to maintaining her health and vigor. Despite the challenges, she continues to develop beautifully. The buds are light yet densely packed with trichomes, creating a spectacular frosty appearance. It's truly a sight to behold as they cake up all around, showcasing the plant's remarkable genetic potential. One consequence of the recent nutrient lockouts is chlorosis, leading to a significant loss of leaves. It's a delicate phase where careful monitoring and adjustments are crucial to minimize further stress on the plant. The tent is now filled with a very sweet aroma, a delightful sign of the maturing buds. This scent not only signifies the quality of the buds but also adds an extra layer of enjoyment to our growing experience. Your continuous engagement and feedback are what make this journey so special. I look forward to reading your insights, questions, and tips. Your shared passion and knowledge are invaluable in navigating these complex stages of growth. Don't forget about the special discount code ZAMMIGD2023 at Zamnesia's online store. It's a great way to connect with fellow growers and enjoy quality products. Thank you for being with me on this adventure. Your support is a huge part of what makes this experience so rewarding. Stay tuned for more updates as we carefully guide our Northern Lights towards a successful harvest. Here's to healthy growth and aromatic buds!

More photos are coming... but for now, I'm super SUPER pleased with this grow! And I'm glad I only grew one plant in my 2x4 tent - she filled it up! Had I tried for 2 plants, I don't think the results would have been as stunning. From now on, growing in DWC and with the lights I have, I will limit the tent to one plant only... Next up in the tent will be an experiment... Going to be topping/cloning a Captain Future photoperiod and growing it in DWC while the "mother" and her sister go outside for the summer. I'm excited to see just how much I got from this grow... I don't weigh wet buds because it's stupid (imho) to weigh wet buds that are still attached to the stems and branches ... so check back in about a week for the dry weight...

Greetings, fellow cultivators! It's time for the Week 6 from Seed and Week 2 Flower Report on our illustrious Epsilon F1, and the journey of green excellence continues to unfold. Our botanical champion is now fully immersed in the flowering phase, and let me tell you, the spectacle is nothing short of breathtaking. In this pivotal week, our Epsilon F1 has truly come into her own, showcasing the beauty and resilience that only a seasoned grower can appreciate. The transition from veg to flower has been seamless, a testament to the meticulous care and attention lavished upon her. As we delve deeper into the flowering phase, our guiding hand remains steady, ensuring our green queen stays low and wide, maximizing light penetration and promoting an even canopy. It's a delicate dance of cultivation, a choreography that promises a bountiful harvest of botanical splendor. The environment continues to be a haven of stability, with room temperatures and humidity maintained at optimal levels. Consistency is key, providing our Epsilon F1 with the perfect conditions to thrive and flourish. Now, let's talk nutrients! The Aptus Holland super soil mix continues to be the cornerstone of our feeding regimen, providing a symphony of nutrients that nourish our plant from root to tip. Micromix Soil, Substrate Buffer Powder, All-in-One Pellet – it's the nutritional trifecta that ensures our Epsilon F1 remains healthy and vibrant. But that's not all! Our foliar friend, NutriSpray, makes a triumphant return, showering our green goddess with a gentle rain of nutrients. This foliar feast not only provides essential microelements but also leaves a protective coating on the leaves, safeguarding against environmental stressors and promoting overall plant health. And let's not forget our trusty sidekick, Mycor Mix. This microbial powerhouse continues to work its magic in the root zone, fostering a symbiotic relationship that enhances nutrient uptake and promotes root health. Our Epsilon F1 is not just a plant; she's a botanical masterpiece in the making. Shout-outs to Royal Queen Seeds for the genetics that continue to dazzle, and heartfelt gratitude to Aptus Holland for crafting nutrients that elevate our grow space to new heights of green excellence. Stay tuned, dear readers, as we bear witness to the unfolding chapters of the Epsilon F1 saga. Happy growing, and may your gardens be forever green!

End of week 8 in flower , girls are on flush now, I have lowered the temp to 72 with lights on and 60 for lights off , I’m running both my Dehumidifers to keep the humidity below 40%, I will give them 4 or 5 days of just water and then no water or light for 48 hrs before harvest, the room is pretty stinky , thank god for can filters, I will post results after the chop.

.. Week2 start to use beneficial nutrients and switch the light only 18 hours per day.⏰ {Activities} (Day 8) First day of the week, i dont't water the plants. (Day 9) Second day use some nutrients, there're Cal-mag 0.3ml./L. , Bio-heaven 2ml./L. , Acti-vera and Fish-Mix each 1ml./L. (Day 10) ....Practice the dharma So calm🧘‍♂️..Just observe them. Nice growing (Day 11) Use a Root-juice 4ml/2L. I think the roots will not walk to the bottom of the pot if the watering does not reach so I should add 1 liter of water per a plant. (Day 12) Today I should add more fan for my grow tent so today I'm buying new one , switch the light to 75% and Lamp To Plant Distance 24-26inches . (Day 13)...This day I'm not do anything about my plants but learning about toping and cloning a plant or other training a plant. (Day 14) The last day water the plants but use only water.🚿 Hope you like and enjoy my diary. Thank you so much for checking out my grows. Feel free to leave a comment, push the like or give the follow.

VEG WEEK 10 My Base Nutrient Inputs: See VEG WEEK 6 for details of stock solutions A & B. My grow weeks run from Monday to Sunday. This week the goal was to let the girls grow, space the tops around the trellis, and attach each stem to the outside of this structure. Tuesday - Watering Day - 1 gallon each as described above. Friday - Watering Day - The pots are very light. Laverne is quite thirsty in pic # 10 - 2 gallons each as described above. Friday - Pruning Day - Pinched out all the new grow at each fan leaf. The goal is a single stalk with no side branching. Also removed some lower Fan leaves and a few select others. Unfortunately, Laverne lost a top. Not sure how, but I snapped it😡, and it dangled by a little of the outer stem tissue. I quickly reached for some tape to administer first-aid, which has worked for me in the past. Sadly, a few days later, it was evident (pic # 16), she wasn't going to make it. Sunday - Training and Trim Day - Laverne is now down to 11 tops and my plants symmetry is shattered. I pushed the broken limb aside, to make room to realign the neighboring branches. I'm leaving this broken branch on the plant for now (pic #17), in an attempt to keep the other branch, on the same main stalk from dominating the plant. The remaining branch (pic #18&19) is already growing much faster and needed some serious twisting to bring it to the level of the rest of the plant. I managed to get Laverne symmetrical again, and leveled out the tops with some wire work. Shirley was also wired down to a symmetrical, level canopy, without any drama. Laverne is now 10 inches tall, and Shirley is 12 inches. It seems I named them backwards, lol. Laverne received a 2 inch booster seat under her pot to bring her canopy level with her buddy. Their canopy tops are 30 inches from the Electric Sky ES 300 V1 light. Shirley has shown herself to be a female (pic #24), while Laverne has not shown sex (no concern, as these seeds I made should be feminized). I see some tip burn, and need to dial back my nutrients a tad. I also am working on eliminating the purple on the top side of the petioles (not too worried about it as the plant is growing and appears healthy otherwise). My base nutrients contain calcium and magnesium, plus I add Cal-Mag +, so not sure why. It is funny that the purple is only on the top side of the petioles, and makes me wonder if this is caused somehow by LED lighting. If anyone knows, please share😀. I plan on another week, maybe two, of vegetative growth. The mother(s), that I made these seeds from only stretched about 12-14 inches. I'll flip to 12/12 light schedule when the stems reach the height of the top of the trellis. With the stems supported, and some luck, these girls, will be set-up for smooth flowering. The video was taken Sunday morning, before training and trimming. Thanks for Viewing, Peace, DeaneR😎

Day 42/56+: Wooooohooo these girls are doing great. The smells and look a in the room are hypnotic now. Seeing all of those fat, chunky heads bobbing around in the vortex that my Big Bertha fan pushes out is a joy. They are taking around 10L to get to a run off , every 3 days or so in the L.O.S FFT#1 is creating some nice long shaggy looking colas that smell nice and sickly sweet now. She is looking like she is ready to swell now too. hopefully the next 2 weeks will show the colas to be the chunks they want to be. she is a squat lady and would def have been better to have been left to grow taller. . In a very limited space/ box , trained more horizontal as she is now and you could have a very productive bonsai style grower. FFT#5 wow I love this girl. She is a full on show off now. She is pushing her terpines up my nose from just going above her now. If I venture to actually touch her buds , she becomes so excited that she doesnt want to let me go again. so tacky. she isnstartimgntomcplour her pistils little but is still looking fresh and bountiful. Her structure has been easy to work with in veg but is now so thick and woody that any bending her to my will would involve a team of us. lol FFT#7 Plods on with her domineering attitude to her space and is so productive now . her buds are not as long at this point as the #5 but are so many in number that her yield should be a good one. I would say she is probably going to go for longer than the other 2 testers before finishing but she is certainly worth the wait. Her smell is so fruit sweet now too. she has the biggest stem popping out of the soil and is a very thick structures girl. I would love to see her grown outside in a natural environment and think she would be a monstrous outdoor plant. Definitely the quickest grower for height even though she is tied down tighter than an insane monk. I will definately be producing more of these girls to play with their development potential and feel that you would have to make sure that you have the room for one of these to get her best out of her. so far these new strains are a winner for me. I am looking forward to going through the rest of the strains now. I plan 3 more in the next run so will scour the current tester grows for the likely victims to do next. These are winners already

HARVEST DAY!!!.... What a beautiful plant.. I can't wait to give her a taste.. Was expecting to push her another week.. But a closer look showed that there were alot of amber already.. Kinda hard to see them against the purple calyxes along with with the Mars Hydro TS 1000 on as well.. But she should be perfect! Oh I cant wait!!! Will be updating with the drying and curing as I go!!! So happy!!! 😭😭😭 Drying - Day 4... Ok so humidifier is definately not needed this time lol.. For a couple days the room and box were at 70% so I took the water and filter out of the humidifier and just running it as a fan to help move the air around the small room its drying in.. The box also has a very small and weak computer fan which is just pulling the air out SLOWLY but SURELY.. Now the humidity inside the box has been reading 66% constantly for the last 2 days! This will be my first harvest that doesnt dry in 3 - 5 days without a humidifer! Maybe cuz I watered that morning?? Idk.. But this is much better.. Hoping for at least a 7 day dry.. 10 or 12 would be nice.. But I doubt that very much lol.. Anyways.. Will still be updating as I go!!! Drying - Day 5... So I went ahead and trimmed all the smaller nugs and colas.. Leaving the 3 biggest colas (back of the box) to trim in the morning tomorrow. I wish I would have lollipopped some.. Alot of larfy, leafy nugs.. But still gonna smoke that shit! Lol.. Took about 2.5 hours to trim what I did today.. Keeping the trim (duh) to make some bubble hash.. Or maybe just gather the keif and press it.. Haven't made up my mind on that yet.. Either way it's gonna be some epic shit! The smell is still so amazing! You could probably fuck up the drying and curing and still smell the citus! Lol.. But I will still keep updating as I go! Drying - Day 7.. I went ahead and put some smaller nugs into a jar to see what they were reading.. Still way too high.. In about 8 hours it was reading 84% RH so they still got at least a couple more days drying. Drying - Day 8... Ok so I was feeling the nugs I already trimmed and jarred.. They feel pretty crispy. So I'm jarring them again today. I have trimmed up 2 more of the bigger colas but I can feel that they still have some moisture.. So later today I'm going to finish trimming up the last one (which is gonna be awful lol it has alot of smaller branches that are gonna be very tedious) but that one is gonna have to be left out to dry a little longer than the rest. As of now, I have 3 jars filled.. I may even need to buy another jar.. I really wish I had some big mouth mason jars so I can buy those lids for curing! Those things look legit asf! Later that night... So I have now finished trimming.. The jars that I had already filled were reading 62% RH on the dot.. I like to have it at 65% - 68% RH to have some room to get it down to 62% after a week or two.. But this shouldnt be any issue.. Will add 62% packs when the jars get below 60%.. But since they are already at 62%.. I dont want to burp very often at all.. 62% RH is where I like my bids at. I have a sandwich bag FULL of trim.. That is gonna make some amazing bubble hash! Very airy bud.. But this strain is very beautiful.. Smells great.. Just the airy buds.. Will definately grow again.. Will update with a taste test in 15 - 30 days.. Would rather get the cure done before I taste her.

LSD-25 Auto (Fast Buds) Dark tones starting to show on lower buds, early pistils forming nicely. Structure is open, responding well to LST. Smell getting sweeter day by day. Gorilla Zkittlez Auto (Fast Buds) Compact and strong, stacking well. Tight internodes and vibrant green leaves, no signs of stress. Preparing for heavier feeding next watering. Titan F1 Auto (Royal Queen Seeds) Tallest plant in the tent, already showing solid top colas. Very stable genetics – healthy leaves, thick stem. Responded perfectly to Boom Boom Spray.

Esta semana está empezando a crear unas buenas porras de cogollos que se ven que tienen muy buena pinta 🔥 El ritmo que tiene es bastante bueno y parece que tiene mucha fuerza 💪 Hemos mantenido los valores en la misma linea exceptuando la humedad que la hemos bajado un 10%.

Day 83: After being in the dark for like 4-7 days, they where ready to harvest. All plants getting cut by the machine, big buds are cut by hand. I never weight wet buds because that doesnt make any sence. I will update soon on how much it is dry weight. My friend helped me with the harvest since it takes many hours of work. I have many buds that are as big or bigger as my hand. Quallity so far looks promising even thought there are shitty buds as well, but thats normal and oke. They have been cut freshly so I won't lose much weight when cutting. This will happen when cutting dry buds. The remaining small leafs on the wet buds will dry in with the buds and will be barely visible. More info soon.

Although I am blown away by the growth and progress she is making. I am extremely concerned about the high temperatures in the grow room. It's between 26-32 degrees, not ideal! I can't seem to cool it down at all as it's 30+ outside. I have an alternative plan for drying so I will be able to do that at a reasonable temperature but I'm concerned a lot of potency and some of the more volatile terpines might have evaporated 😭
