She has a major lean on from over watering and is supported enough for now. The single finger leaves are developed and she is working on the next set of 3 fingered leaves.
Conditions have been good for the week.
Back soon.
Take it easy.

So far, everything is developing well. The Bruce Banner has been lollipopped, perhaps a little too much, but let's wait and see.
I trained the S.A.D. #4 with plant clips, as three shoots became too dominant. This worked very well so far and the other shoots caught up well.
I also noticed that the Bruce Banner was getting slightly yellow leaves. I don't know the exact reason, but it may have been due to the low CalMag dosage in the previous weeks.
I also noticed an infestation of fungus gnats, nothing serious, but today I watered with nematodes and this problem should have disappeared.

A few lower leafs have yellows and shriveled but other than that both of the gals are looking good and the smell is finally started to kick in a bit. No problems at all and totally satisfied with there growth in bud size. Looking forward to this week and compare the difference.

Flipped to 12/12 at day 43.
Raised light-intensity from 60 to 90 %.
Now +70% of the net is filled and i can see potential to make it an evenly shaped bowl full of fruits:-)
The deep, dark colour has turned to a juicy green, shoots everywhere....... everything fine but two little things:
1) run-off-pH is a bit high...... 6.6-6.9. will feed rather acidic next time....
2) Main Colas get a bit tall..... will supercrop them as soon, as the rest of the cannopy is organzied to a clean scrog.
Nutritionwise i lowered N, raised K and gave an extra P-shot (0,05 g/L BLOSSOM-BOOST) on days 43 and 44.
Day 45
fed pH 5.8 - readings immediatly dropped to 6.3 to 6.5 👍
Vigorous stretch.....!!! Mounted some more hooks to get the scrog even - works perfectly now! +80% of the net is filled......and the colas in the corner almost make plants of their own - i will supercrop them, as soon as they don't stretch any more.
Day 46
fed pH 6.1 today..... readings still good (average 6.4)
took out some more leafs today, to give a little more light to young shoots.
Smell is getting stronger, but no visible signs of flowering yet.

Day 22
25/07/24 Thursday
Still no Feed/water since Tuesday.
Been a humid and overcast two days so not as much evaporation as normal.
All plants happy and healthy 💚
Video updates
Day 23
26/07/24 Friday
De-chlorinated watering pH 6 with 5ml calmag to 5L water.
Watered each with 250ml and had small run off.
I will continue to feed/water with small run offs to help prevent salt build ups.
Video update.
Day 26
29/07/24 Monday
Nice feed today, using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6.
They each had 300ml with small run off.
All looks incredibly happy and healthy!
The Auto Kabul that was mutated and twisted has pulled herself through and is just a bit shorter than the others.
Day 28
31/07/24 Wednesday
End of week😁
De-chlorinated water pH 6 today with Plagron pk13-14 5ml to 5L
Plagron power buds 5ml to 5L
Used 300ml of the 5L solution.
I will be using these on water days from now on as they are advised to be used every irrigation.
We'll see how they perform 💪💚

This lady has gone through many changes this week.. Firstly I tightened the scrog net and she was stripped of her fan leaves and the lower future bud sites have reacted well to the light. She has grown immensely in the last 2 weeks and I have now stopped tucking her under the net. She is starting to shoot out her Pistils and beginning to form tricomes on her leaves. Exited too see what she does this coming week!!!! =D

Strain was a hardy IMO easy to grow,great BUD/LEAF ratio so it will be easy to manicure...I would grow this again. I will post final weight in a couple weeks. 60/60 for about 10 days will cure it wonderfully . I cannot post wet weights as I trim dry and do not remove flowers from branches until they are cured.
9 1/2 lbs dry weight of WELL manicured bud. That comes out to 1.66 grams/watt !

Week 6 update:
This week I focused on training and canopy management. I did some defoliation to open up the plant structure and improve airflow/light penetration. I also shaped the plants with main-lining and continued LST to keep the tops even and strong. The goal is to push all the energy into the main colas so they finish fat and dense later.
Funny moment this week – I actually found a little grasshopper hanging out on one of the leaves! 🦗 Looks like even the bugs think these girls are tasty.
Nutrients used:
• Terra Aquatica Grow A + Grow B – moderate dose (~700–800 ppm)
• CalMag – 1 ml/L
• Silic Rock – 1 ml/L
• Great White + Trikologic – root support
• PowerZyme back in rotation (light dose)
Training & care:
• Defoliation: cleared out fan leaves blocking budsites
• Main-lining + LST to keep canopy flat
• Watching closely for any recovery signs on Mike Tyson auto (still behind but alive)
Plan for next week:
• Expect to see stronger preflowers forming and some pistils starting to stack up
• Increase bloom-focused feeding gradually once stretch slows

D57/F13 - 27/05/23 - Added sunset and sunrise (only red lights for 1,5 hours at the start and 1,5 at the end)
D58/F14 - 28/05/23 - I set up my AFD (see picture). I find a way to feed her automaticly when I 'll be out, Every day I start the pump for 30 sec (about) to give her 2 liters of nutes with my AFS (Automatic Feeding System)
D59/F15 - 29/05/23 - Automatic feeding
D60/F16 - 30/05/23 - Automatic feeding
D61/F17 - 31/05/23 - Automatic feeding
D62/F18 - 01/06/23 - Automatic feeding
D63/F19 - 02/06/23 - I'm back, Nora looks ok, automatic feeding works. A little bit of problem with timelaps framing, but it's ok, I've got all info I need. EC 0.9 and pH 6.5

It was my first grow so I know my next crack at this strain would be much better. I didn't have too many issues or any crazy setbacks. It was smooth sailing for a while and then had some nute/deficiency issues but it was later in flower. I did move them into a bigger tent with a far better light but not until the last 3 weeks of flower. So I know I'll have to grow this again in the future and compare!

Hello Growmies!
As we conclude our Epic Buzz journey, let's dive into the final harvest data under the exceptional conditions provided by the Trolmaster and the engaging platform of GD. This week marks the end of our cultivation cycle with a final wet weight of 1720 grams from a setup featuring the FC4800 light dimmed to 65% maximum, utilizing 108 watts over an area of approximately 0.48 square meters.
Final Harvest Metrics:
Yield Efficiency: Achieved an impressive yield efficiency of 15.92 wet grams per watt, underscoring the efficiency of our light setup.
Area Yield: With a productivity of 3583.33 wet grams per square meter, our cultivation space was maximized for optimal output.
Plant Yield: Each plant contributed significantly, averaging 573.33 grams, highlighting robust growth and development.
Density: The garden hosted 6.25 plants per square meter, optimizing space without overcrowding.
Energy Utilization: The grow utilized 225 watts per square meter, a testament to our strategic light management.
A huge shoutout to Trolmaster for making such an amazing contest possible, and to GD for providing a platform that brings us all together. This cultivation journey has been a rewarding challenge, showcasing the potential of careful strain selection and attentive grow practices.
In the meantime, feel free to check out my upcoming Barneys Farm diaries which will soon take over this tent. Exciting times ahead as we continue to explore and share our passion for growing!
Stay Lifted!

Day 65 - Pics/Vids..... Everything looks good......stress bent them into position and defoliated ..... lots of flowering now.....
..... hadn't actually measured them for awhile, and updated the height, 44 cm ....
tested out the lights higher, 40cm away, and seemed to slow down growth... so moved em back, 20-25cm...
watering is the same, bottom saucer feeding, 850-1000 ppm dutch master one flower 5-8ml/lt....
actually using about 12-15ml / 1.8l.......
Day 70 (10 wks) - Pulled em both out of tent, flushed em and trimmed em abit, took some pics/vids in the sunshine.
...... the soil started smelling bad, - stale, moldy, damp, soil smell..... so i did a full flush out on both....
noticed afew gnats, been afew since the start, but haven't really been many.... i'm going to try out a UV bulb, and also
a usb uv led bug trap ..... just ordered them.... posted a pic of both... see if they are any good.....
