#001 September 2024 Grow | Black Orchid auto | Frosted Guava auto | Strawberry Cough auto

ProjectSkippy147 Iam on holiday, luckely I have a neighbour as my friend 😁🧑🏼‍🌾 The 2 older Girls doing great…might a bit brighter 🤔 The new one is also now doing his grind 🤓

ProjectSkippy147 Iam back from tenerife 🏻✈️ Today I added another lamp ( also Mars Hydro TS 1000, but a newer version) They dimmed to 75%, thats equal to 90 watts. 30cm distance, hope thats okey. #1 Frosty | Looks Okey, she will doing his job without any training. #2 Strawberry | looks great, but I decided to wait some more day(s) till topping… the nodes are tiny 🤔 #3 Blackys | The newer one is on the road now 🛣️Still not sure what I do with the smaller one. Edit: the smaller blacky is now moved in her own pod. i think I will put her out in the garden… without anything and now stressing. Lets see what she doing in 10 weeks (in germany the summer is over and its very wet and cold now) Edit2: Frosty is now behind the roof window and need to use the low energie from the sun, I think she misses the LED Light a bit… looks like stress, they are also less hours of light. Directly under the old mars hydro 1000 light is now Blacky :) she likes that And also, Strawberry was ready for topping and so I did!

ProjectSkippy147 Hello Guys :) Week 3 now (at least I think so, germination is week 0, right?) Some thinks are happend since last week. #1 Frosty | I think its to dark for here, but for this level I think she is doing nice. I cant wait to see how she ends with the winter light in germany. #2 Strawberry | got some LST, I put the LED light now on 15 cm distance and the dimmer to 100%. Lets see if its okey for her or If she gets burns. this will be the knowledge for the next grows with the 2 Mars Hydro TS 1000 lights. #3 Blackys | I also put the light a few cm down. yesterday I saw some brown points on her leaves. Not really sure if it comes by the light. I put the lights higher to about 30-35 cm and dimmer on 75%. This morning she looks better again. #3,1 Blacky small | hates the shit weather in germany, shes full of stress and still of the size from week 1/2. Im sum I think they doing okey but they are a way too small for they age, hope this week will change it. I also give them some nutrients again, 1/8 of the normal dosis (2 ml/1 l is normal, I give them just 0,25 ml/1 l) Edit 1: #3 Blacky is not that happy but i decided to dont give a F and continue with LST plan of the project. Also the leafes turning red, we will see what she will doing with the extra stress.

ProjectSkippy147 Hello happy grower :) I still doing LST on Blacky and Strawberry. Strawberry is allready going to bloom now.

ProjectSkippy147 Hellou guysss :) Its time to move to the next phase.... the Strawberry is already blooming, Frosty and Blacky still take some time, but I think next week they bloom :) Im still doing some LST at Blacky, I think she will going a way more as strawberry has done. I also removed some leafs (the old big leafs, way getting no light at all) Strawberry looks a bit red at the tiny leafs of the buds...also the stem is very red/violet, can someone tell my why? Is it do hot under the LEDs or is it to much nutritions? I only watering every 2/3 days because the soil is everytime still wet, nutrients only once a week and also just 1/8 or 1/4... Iam very glueless... Edit: Okey I think its because they are to close to LEDs, I thought I can put them about 15 cm away because its just 150 watts for each… looks like its to much

ProjectSkippy147 Helloou Guys :) nothing to say, all 3 ladys blooming, Strawberry on position 1, Blacky on 2, Frosty on 3 :) I moved the lights a little bit higher, on about 25-30 cm distance.. because the little leafs of the buds going to be red...

ProjectSkippy147 Hello guuuys :) nothing to say. The Strawberry is very "bushy" the buds are very close too each other. Thats the reason why I decided to do some more LST to Blacky...also I removed many leafs and some small buds. Maybe its a bit too late for this and it results in 1 week of stress...but I dont wont a Strawberry 2.0. Frosty is doing his thing....You cant see this on the picture but she is very high. Hope she puts the same energie in the buds aswell 😉

ProjectSkippy147 Okey Okey, Blacky is not happy at all… I think she hates the shit I have done to her last week. What you guys think was wrong?

ProjectSkippy147 Hello, Iam nut sure but I think they looks like they look because of too much nutrition and too mutch light. Iam now dimming the light at 75% and put the distance to 35cm. Also, I stopped give them Biobizz, just Water at PH 6,3. F this Shit, next run I will try only 1/8 Biobizz, light at between 15-75 % and more distance. Interesting is miss Frosty, she looks very healthy, thats the reason why I think the light was to mutch.

ProjectSkippy147 okey lets show off the project. Strawberry got 28,27 g dry harvest. Blacky got 20,51 g dry harvest, I just trim 13,44 g, because the other stuff was too much popcorn. lessons learned: - you should not put the light too close, even its LED light - you dont need to use the light 100 %, use max 75% instand because of effectiveness - try to get few big buds instad of much small buds/popcorn - electricity in germany is expansive - I still need to reduce the nutrients at automatics, I used only 1/8 or 1/4 but it was still to much. cost overview (one Lamp): September 8.3 kwh October 76.05 kwh November 43.93 kmh SUM: 128,28 x 2 lamps == 256.56 KwH electricity cost/month = 14.92 € electricity cost/kwH = 0.2146 € _____________________________________________ overall cost electricity for 2 plants 99.82 € I think the costs are still okey, Iam looking forward for the results of the new project (low budget light test)
