W12.Day.1(77)
The captivating journey took an unexpected turn when mold was spotted on two buds, prompting me to opt for an emergency harvest to mitigate further spread 🍂.
By skipping both washing and drying (last 24 hours without water) to speed up the harvest, the weight of the large bush, a hefty 2485 grams, included all the water, stems, leaves, and even the bamboo scrog :)
Upon thorough examination, no additional signs of mold were detected. I ensured all the buds were dried under the highest airflow possible, effectively minimizing the impact of the mold 🌬️.
In response to this challenge, I'm planning to enhance the ventilation system and improve data monitoring within the grow box. These adjustments aim to replicate the success of this growing method while preventing mold in future cycles 🛠️.
My heartfelt thanks go out to everyone who has been part of this journey through the diary. Your engagement and encouragement mean the world to me and my plants 🌿.
Huge thanks to @AsNoriu, @MiyaguiOkPolilla, @nonick123, @Archie1337, @JuanHaze_Arg, @deFharo, @Plantinator, @GrowerOG, @GrowInSparta, @Lemonhazelover for following my journey and wishing me success 🌟. Your support means the world to me 🙏💚.
A special shoutout to @chamomile; I'm gearing up for a strong comeback 💪.
Appreciation extends to @SkunkleDamo, @TheUk420Show, @HerbalEdu, and @FNplug6 for their invaluable advice during this critical decision-making process 🙏.
W12.Day.7(83)
Almost a whole week of drying has passed, and I've managed to remove the excess fan leaves and the less trichome-dense parts of the remaining leaves 🍃✂️. Made a little update to the dryer - added an extra section and now all the cleaned colas with buds are comfortably sitting on the drying racks 🌿🔄. No signs of mold anywhere, which is a huge win 🚫🍄✨. I haven’t separated them from the branches yet; I’m planning the final weighing after another week of drying ⏳🌱.
P.S. Dreaming about the yield if I could manage to hold out for two more planned weeks of grow 🌠💭🌳. More smiles, more vibes 🌈😊.
W13.Day.3(86)
I took one of the ready buds off the drying rack to check it out and study it 🧐. There are lots of clear and white trichomes and hardly any amber ones. The smell reminds me of Mimosa Orange Punch Auto from Barney's Farm 🍊. I think the terpene profile must have come from the Mimosa. It could have used more time to flower and mature, rather than this early finish 🌱. But we work with what we've got and move forward from here. This weight of 3.49 grams will be added to the total tally after the final weighing at the end of the two-week drying period ⚖️.
The taste after smoking has a quite strong chemical note. It should diminish after curing. In terms of potency, it's slightly below my previous grow. But again, this is without curing.

away.
Weekly roundup.
📋 It's just been a week of trying to keep a happy environment for her, I had to go away for the end of the week so left everything on autopilot until I get back.
As usual being a Fastbuds strain she is developing at a nice fast rate.
The weather has now flipped to summer mode so its a completely different battle now.
Take it easy.
Back soon.

Week 2 of veg and these girls have started to really grow!! Keeping up with LST as I know these can be really big girls.
No defoliation yet, will do just before flower
UPDATE: LST everyday this week in preparation for them to switch to flower.
I will defoliate and lollipop at the end of the week.

Another great week of just giving rain water every 2 days. Noticed from others grows, she stays in veg/pre flower a bit longer than most. Just starting to show pistols and early bidsites now. Later this week will probably add some potash to keep up with bud production. Still loving watching these girls grow. The space has gotten quite tight and the girls are fighting for the light. Chose to do no training or topping this grow, only leaf tucking. Girls still steady growing in height and width daily. Curious to see how full the tent gets.

Hello guys😍😍
Fifth week of growth.
Last week, the plants were a little shocked after topping, but after a few weeks they returned to normal growth.
To reduce this shock, I used BioEnhancer fertilizer.
And this week I checked the roots.
The pots are ready to be Transplat.Thank you for following my project.

Semana 10 desde semilla para esta hermosa planta y así sigue.
Todo bien en cuanto a su desarrollo.
Ya entramos en recta final, ya estos momentos es donde estoy revisando los tricomas cada día para ir viendo su estado de maduración.
Es todo por ahora
Buenos Humos!

Hey Growmies!
I'm thrilled to share my latest project: two exceptional grow environments, each a lush green haven with 9 plants on plant rollers. We’re employing a blend of Scrog (Screen of Green) and Sog (Sea of Green) techniques. Each plant has its individual ScroG, directly connected to its air-pot, facilitating easy mobility and care within the tent.
As the Room is on the cooler side at the moment, I've set up a Solea infrared heater, controlled by an Inkbird ITC-308 temperature controller, to maintain a cozy climate. Each tent is also equipped with a Spider Farmer Cool Mist humidifier for perfect humidity levels. Initially, I planned for identical setups in both tents, but adaptation is crucial. I encountered a challenge with the UR45 lights due to their single plug and UV/IR switches. To overcome this, in Tent 1, I’ve installed two UR45 lights: one dedicated to IR and the other to UV, each managed by a Meross smart plug.
The Mars Hydro app manages the light and in-line fan controls in Tent 2, though it has its limitations. The ITC-308 takes care of the infrared heater, while the humidifier regulates itself. I'm really into this setup, but I'm already thinking about upgrading to a single grow controller for all devices.
Excitingly, ‘Epic Buzz’ in Tent 1 is competing in the Tent-X Ultimate Grow Challenge sponsored by Trolmaster, who has also sponsored a Tent X Controller for this tent. This addition will greatly enhance our control and monitoring capabilities in this tent.
This grow season is extra thrilling as I’m collaborating with Anesia Seeds and Ganja Farmer Seeds. They've provided some amazing strains. Tent #1 houses ‘Epic Buzz’, ‘Red Banana Pudding’, and ‘Pink Matcha Slush’ from Anesia Seeds. Tent #2 features ‘Caramel’, ‘GMO’, and ‘Bruce Banner x White Russian’ from Ganja Farmer Seeds. I’ll be documenting their growth in individual diaries. Check out these links for each strain's story:

Done some LST last week to open up the plant. The SCROG net was setup a few days after that.
This strain is showing a lot of branching, it might work really well with the SCROG method.

Day 76!!!! 320 gr. it's amazing :) the girl would definitely be bigger if I could provide the right conditions :) unfortunately, it's too hot for me at the moment :( but she did it :) what's most important :) I'm happy :) next time we'll improve :) there will be an update after drying :) in 89 days I used 257 kw of electricity :) I got about 450-500 gr :D from two girls' car, I think it's not a bad result either :) :)

Week six I’ve been watering when dry and I bumped the nutrients up a bit. I started to prune some of the lower fan leaves to help with the bud growth. Everything looks to be going well with Billy by Mandy still seems to be pretty small.
