We started this grow from cut-off's from a beautiful motherplant grown from Dutch passsion seeds.
The power plant in general is a really easy plant to make clones of and every single one grew out to a really nice little lady 😁
Week 2 shown us a significant grow from 6 to 18 cm's in just a few day.
All the leafs are a really beautiful green hue and just look amazing
and the most beautiful thing in this whole world is NO BLOODY SPIDER MITES !!!
for the growers that followed our previous grow knew the struggle we had
but $180 Predator mites finally did the trick and we have it under control 😈
Another week without any problems what so ever, grow stage goes super fast under our new light the Fluence Spydr LED x8 omg we love this light
and the power plant gives us just what we want the perfect combination of a damn awesome light with a well loved strain
Week 4 and we set the clocks to 12/12 the lady's are now 40 cm with a nice strong stem
half way into this week we started to see the first signs of flower development
And we found the joy of growing again and thats the most important thing
Cheers,
Nibameca
week 2 of flowering all went well, winter temperatures are coming fast so we keep a close eye on the climate inside the grow room
on to week 3 of flowering
Help us out !
what can we do better in our diaries? all suggestions are very welcome to make the reading and viewing pleasure as satisfying as possible
Another week another entry to our grow diary,
The power plant is looking pretty nice and green, the smell is between normal and strong
in the beginning of this week we started adding Atami Bloombastic to the mix
we have a little problem with the humidity in the grow room working hard on a solution for that
but still no spider mites and that makes us very happy
on to next week hopefully we can tell you about the solution for the high humidity
best wishes and keep 'em green
Ciao
another week past, another chapter to fill-in
the past week was a very easy one no significant changes to the parameters of the grow itself,
the smell got a little bit more strong so we changed that from normal to strong
next week some close-up pictures from the flower development
have a great weekend
Nibameca,
And another week gone, finally we got the humidity under control we got it from 75% to 50% that makes us and the ladies very happy
the buds are getting very fat en sticky we love it we added a picture of the trichomes what do you guys think one week before harvest or more?
and make a guess how much of the good stuff we can harvest from one plant we gonna put the results in the final chapter of this diary
best wishes

these babies grew up really damn fast and look awesome we cut down on nutrients we only give water with pH of 5.8 and the next update will take a little longer with drying time and a taste test
we would like to thank all the people whom followed, commented and discuss this grow with us we are very gratefull for this awesome community
up next is going to be Green Gelato from Royal Queen Seeds
best wishes

This is a really easy strain to grow and maintain with a very big yield in the end.
very susceptible to the nutrients that we gave and overall one of the best strains for us
easy to grow easy to maintain during the grow and a very big yield with solid buds
after trying this awesome strain i must say that it's good for day and night time
it gives a nice relaxing buzz but uplifting at the same time i went for a walk with a spliff and really enjoyed beeing outdoor big plus for me

one thing i miss as an option in the flavor profile is pepper cause the powerplant has a very distinctive pepper flavor to it which i really like as a profile i gave earthy, woody and herbs but the herbs should be read as pepper
What you say is absolutely true it's very easy to manage these diaries most of the time i have a few lines every week about the progress but no significant story's to tell about the plants unless there is some trouble like we had in our last diary there where spider mites that is interesting to talk about cause that can happen to all of us
and indeed the second very lucky advantage all done at the same time and the same nutrients schedule
and the third thing also true i can also see this happening the lover buds don't get any light we did some defoliation but didn't gave us a significant change in light to the lower flowers
and also for us time is a factor sometimes we got loads of time to do stuff and sometimes we are very low on time and then the SoG is perfect only a little water every day and done
But, i think we need to try this style of growing as well it's a little more time consuming but in the end it gives a good feeling when it succeeds and we get a good yield that is the reward for the effort that is put in
emptiness is sadness that is very nicely spoken
and a big thanks for the great compliment we highly appreciate it
and yes we love the fluence
best wishes and have a great weekend

Gorgeous garden! Maybe overplanted a little, but your backache will be rewarded in a little more time!😉
Although..I'm not sure it's more work filling a 4 x 4 with 25 plants than it is to train and scrog two plants...definitely more expensive for the 25 seeds, but time-wise, and effort...probably a draw.
I'm still trying to find that magic number, but it's difficult because I keep growing different strains with different tendencies...10 or 12 in 3 gallon pots in a 4 x 4 is probably my upper limit.
@NiBaMeCa420,
The biggest advantage you have with your method is the fact that your diary is easy to manage! With only one strain, you don't have to take the plants out of the tent for individual photos all the time.
The other big advantage to the sea of green is your plants all finish about the same time and have mostly the same diet requirements.
The only big disadvantage, aside from the additional cost of seeds, is when you overplant the garden too much, your lower buds don't see enough light. So your yield is mainly just the cola weight. It becomes a survival of the quickest situation..the plants that have the earlier growth spurt end up shading the smaller ones.
With a little "elbow room" (and/or side-lighting/floor-lighting) you can increase the yield of each plant considerably...and need less plants to achieve the same total yield.
I don't have the time or patience to train them, but I find I can cause good lateral branching by FIMing them and maximizing the 450nm spectrum for the first 2-3 weeks. This lets me fill the tent with only 10 plants, and averaging 3 main colas per plant.
Sadly, my current crop only has 9 plants..but they may yet fill the tent completely!🙏
I consider it a "sin" to light empty areas of my garden..emptiness is sadness.😁
That crop of Power Plant is truly beautiful though..I'm sure it's gonna be very heavy!
So I guess you're still loving your new Fluence light, huh? 😎
@Silverback_Guerilla,
we hope our backache was worth it in the end 😁
thanks for the reply we also where thinking the same thing but every single time we choose the sea of green above a screen of green i think that we can achieve the same result with less plants im going to discuss this with my buddy and i think we need to try this
thanks a lot
cheers,
Nibameca
@goarilla,
normally we use the Wilma System by Atami but that was full so these plants are all watered by hand with a pump and a hoze
lot of work but it's very rewarding in the end
@Bahiagrow,
THE DIMENSIONS OF MY GROW ROOM IS 120x120 (ISH) CENTIMETER AND THE POT SIZE IS 11 LITERS
POT SIZE IS IN THE GROW CONDITIONS BTW
Happy Capslock day😊

@DAMO1BUD,
hi, thanks for the the question, i personally think this booster is awesome easy to use and smells really nice (although im the only one withing my group whom thinks it smells good LOL)
and the upside it's not that expensive i would suggest to give it a try and please let us know what you think
