NYC Sour D
#1: Slightly slower growth compared to the other two strains. But the larger of this strain. Slight spots on the first leaves. Possibly lime residue from spraying. Or does the community here have a different opinion? Please let me know.
#2: The lowest growth of all 6 plants. Also possibly lime residue on the leaves.
Royal Cookies Auto
#1: Largest plant in the tent. Trunk could be a bit thicker. But I am satisfied so far. Leaves are praying upwards.
#2: Second largest plant. Slight waves in the 2nd pair of leaves. Must be observed.
Royal Haze Auto
#1: Good growth. Slight purple coloration on the stem. Small discoloration on the leaf. Problem?
#2: Everything looks good. Is the smaller of this strain.

Between 520 and 770 ppfd. Should I turn the dimmer down a little bit? What do you think?
I went on business trip for 5 days. Neighbor watered the plants. Must dehumidify better as I had 85% max. at 24°C.
NYC Sour D
#1: Has developed quite well. Many small branches. A few stunted leaves. But she is growing ok.
#2: Still one of the problem child. Small growth, some slightly deformed and discolored leaves. Wait and see how it develops.
Royal Cookies Auto
#1: Best development in the last 5 days. Many small new branches. Largest plant, no signs of light stress. Let's see if I will water more yet.
#2: I am also very satisfied with the development. Slightly smaller than #1, but completely ok.
Royal Haze Auto
#1: Also a problem child. The main stem has not developed any new leaves. Thus, I topped her, so that the secondary stems would develop accordingly. The leaves don't look too good. I'll let her grow and decide before flowering whether to remove her.
#2: Actually quite good so far. Growing a bit stunted, but so far okay.

Between 450 and 615 ppfd. Seems to work well as they are not growing too fast and have no signs of light stress.
I did some LST on day 1 of week 4. Only on branches which where long and solid enough. I never used defoliation. Any recommendation which leafs I should cut is appreciated.
NYC Sour D
#1: Nothing to complain about. Good growth.
#2: Still slow growth, but at the moment I will keep her. See how she will develop.
Royal Cookies Auto
#1: Best lady in the club. A lot of side branches are in progress.
#2: Also nothing to complain about. Best strain out of the 3 strains I planted.
Royal Haze Auto
#1: I think she recoverd well from topping. But growth is slow and she will definitely not have a big size at the end. Let´s see how she will be performing in flowering.
#2: Could be a little bigger, but I am satisfied with the current growth progress.

Shitty week. Fan fell down and broke a few branches on 2 plants. Overall they have recovered well and I hope the yield is not affected. Humidity has gone down. I bought a small dehumidifier - but somehow it's not doing what I'd hoped.
I've defoliated a bit as the leaves are overlapping and moisture is accumulating there.
NYC Sour D
#1: Lost 2 lower branches. No drama, but I felt bad.
#2: Still slow growth and very compact.
Royal Cookies Auto
#1: Still the best strain. The first pistins can be seen.
#2: Also good plant. As well first pistins
Royal Haze Auto
#1: So far ok. No pistins to be seen yet.
#2: Has lost a side branch. But it was a somewhat smaller plant anyway. Let's see how it continues.

Small yellow leaf tips. I think this has more to do with the nutrients than with light stress. I don't add any fertilizer, but I don't have to water much either. I'll be on vacation for 11 days from next Wednesday on - I'll water 2 liters per plant before vacation so that the neighbor doesn't have too much to do. He'd better take care of the ventilation and humidity.
As already announced, there wasn't enough space for 6 plants in the tent, as expected.
I put 2 plants in my friend's greenhouse. It's 25 degrees Celsius there during the day. The night temperatures are now dropping to around 5 degrees Celsius. I hope that it will still work well in the greenhouse for the last 4 weeks until harvest. If not........sad!
Yellow Leaves. I am in Day 68. Give them 1 more week…. Then chop chop.
Day 70: As night temperatures go down to 3 degree Celsius I had to reschedule.
1 NYC Sour D, 2 Royal Haze and 1 Royal Cookies have 90% milky trichomes. Only little amber trichomes. So I give them 72 hours of absolut darkness and will go for harvest.
1 NYC Sour D and 1 Royal Cookies moved from greenhouse to growtent. Trichomes look almost ready but I think 1 more week would help.
Growtent definitely too small for 6 plants.
The Royal Haze Auto was definitiv the most suitable strain for the tent size. It grew most evenly and fully. Next time I will certainly not grow 3 different strains, but only 1 strain. Maybe even work with SoG. The tent is only on loan. I might buy a 120x120 cm tent.
