Welcome to my Mixed Strain Diary sponsored by Spider-Farmer with their new SE5000 2023 Upgraded Spectrum.
All plants are at varies stages. I've autos, fems. From weeks 4-7 2 are in pre flower. The rest are fems and still have at least another few weeks cooking.
Barneysfarm: 3 strains/ 2 fems 1 Auto.
lemon Haze Auto has pushed into pre flower. She's on day 35 and in pre about a week also. Nice hight of 54cm, I expect it to hit 60-65 when pre flower is over. Lots of colas by the looks of it. They're stacking up.
Sour Strawberry (2 PHENOS IN THE SAME POT /SEEDS) is moving along nicely. Good solid growth. Put the net above and set it where I want it. Its a bit low. But, I plan to cut a lot out of her, and weave her close the net. Still not 100% sure I'm doing it right. But, hey, that's what learning is about. It's my 1st attempt at doing a Scrog. (done right. Not just a net threw over a few nodes and an uneven top) i know it'll be far from perfect. I've read/seen all I can. Its just getting my hands dirty and giving it a bash. Growth itself is back on course. No real issues.
Lemom Drizzle
Is a pleasure to grow. Really nice strong sativa strain. I wish I did more work with this lady. I'm going to get stuck in when I flip in about 10-14 days I'll get stuck in and start shaping her. Left it a bit long. But, I just wanted to see how the nodes foliage grew without intervention. And wow. This is a strain where I can see getting big ass colas the length of your arm. So many tight inters.
Kannabia Seed Company: 1 strain/ 1 Auto
Swiss Dream Rose CBD Auto is the quickest out of the bunch. She's only on day 28 and in pre flower 7 days. And it's not as though she's a small pheno. Comes close to specs given by breeder.

Animal mints, well I've had many a fight with this lady. She took a lot of work & patience. She still looks a bit rough, but her growth is good. And she's pushed through her issues.
Tent will be put on a 12-12 r 13-11 in the next 2 weeks or so. Autos will only be done with 12-12. They should be through pre flower then. And will be getting 100% of light as opposed to 85%. So, it should even it out. Although plants under co2 environment can take extra DLI. I just don't have the space to run 2 autos and full co2 for the extra 5-6hrs. So, I'll up the ppfd for the plants out of pre flower. I'll have to do plant hight from light to control ppfd at 100% of the light running. Any plants out of pre flower will be put 20cm away from the light.
Thanks to my sponsor from Spider-Farmer for allowing me to test their new 2023 Spectrum. Amazing light. Really top results. Ideal light for co2 growing in a 90cm2-1m2 tent.
@Moorwun, atm its at 100% as its finishing other plants mate. And I'm running co2. So, I'm setting the veg plants by distance using my Uni-T lux meter for early veg. When my others are out I'll run it at 60% for veg. But, without co2 I'd only use 25-50% from seedling- just before pre flower. Then pre flower I will lightly bump it up 60 (as its still a growth phase) 45cm is rec for pre flowerv to keep promoting upwards growth. And when they come out of pre flower I wouldn't need to go beyond 80% for flowering in a 3x3 as without co2 enrichment a plant can only take 1000umol so a preferred ppfd from 8-1000 is fine for reg grows. But, you can run it at 100 as the higher the deeper the light will go into your grows. But, with good LST, defols in a 3x3 I wouldn't go beyond 80
