Germination Process:
The seeds were soaked in a glass of water with a pH of 5.8. After two days, all the seeds successfully germinated. They were then transferred into Jiffy pellets. Despite the seeds not appearing particularly impressive, they performed exceptionally well.
Grow Setup:
Method: Sea of Green (SOG) on a 60x60 cm area.
Training Techniques:
Topping: To create multiple main colas and ensure even growth.
Low-Stress Training (LST): To promote a flat and wide canopy.
Defoliation: To improve light penetration and airflow.
Optimal Growing Conditions:
Humidity Levels:
Vegetative Stage: 60-70%
Flowering Stage: 40-50% to prevent mold development
Temperature:
Maintain daytime temperatures around 26°C (79°F) for ideal growth.
Lighting:
Provide maximum light intensity to ensure robust growth and optimize canopy coverage in the SOG setup.
Expected Outcome:
Short Vegetative Phase: The SOG method accelerates flowering time by keeping plants shorter and densely packed, maximizing space efficiency.
Dense, Resinous Colas: Expect compact buds with a sweet, berry aroma and potential hints of spice
End of Seedling Phase Report
Environmental Conditions:
Humidity: Maintained between 70-80%.
Temperature: 19°C at night and 23°C during the day.
Lighting: The lamp was positioned 40 cm above the seedlings.
Observations & Actions:
Seedling Growth:
After a week, one seedling pushed itself out of the soil, exposing its root. This resulted in uneven growth. Since the plan is to select only one plant, this seedling was immediately discarded.
Hardening Off:
On day 7, the greenhouse lid was removed to introduce airflow to the seedlings. This helped them adapt to the external environment.
Adjusted Humidity: Decreased slightly to 60-70%.
Root Development:
By day 9, the other two seedlings had fully rooted through the medium. Each displayed a 1 cm main root protruding at the bottom, signaling readiness for transplant.
Transplantation:
The seedlings were transferred into 7-liter pots and watered lightly. A small amount of BioBizz Root Juice was added to support root development and reduce transplant stress.
Performance Feedback:
The seeds performed well overall.
Despite the potential to save the third seedling, it was deemed unnecessary due to the focus on selecting the healthiest plant.
This methodical approach ensures a strong foundation for the next growth phase, optimizing the plants for high performance in the upcoming Sea of Green setup.

Observations:
The plant structure is compact and symmetrical, displaying the beginnings of its classic Sativa-dominant morphology.
No irregularities or notable issues have arisen, indicating a stable start for the vegetative phase.
Progress Update:
Everything is proceeding as planned with the Blue Dream grow. The plant continues to show steady development and remains healthy and vibrant.
Nutrient Schedule:
Introduced nutrients using half the recommended dosage according to the nutrient schedule.
Plan to gradually increase by 1 ml per week, ensuring the plant adjusts to higher nutrient levels without stress.
Plant Health:
No signs of nutrient burn or deficiencies.
Growth is consistent and proportional, with a strong root system supporting healthy leaf production.
Next Steps:
Continue monitoring the plant’s response to nutrient increases.
Prepare for training methods to shape the plant for the Sea of Green setup.
The grow remains on track, and the Blue Dream plant is setting a solid foundation for the upcoming phases! 🌱

Progress Update:
The Blue Dream plant continues to thrive in its third week of vegetative growth. While not the largest in size, its morphology is exceptional, making it a standout in terms of structure and aesthetics—easily the most impressive plant in the growth phase so far.
Nutrient Schedule:
Increased the feeding to match the full nutrient schedule this week.
The plant responded exceptionally well, showing no signs of stress, nutrient burn, or deficiencies.
Plant Health & Development:
Growth remains consistent and healthy, with vibrant green foliage and a symmetrical structure.
The plant’s compact yet robust form suggests strong potential for training and flowering success.

Progress Update:
The Blue Dream plant continues to show excellent development and has handled the increased nutrient levels exceptionally well. It seems less sensitive to feeding adjustments than expected, a positive trait for consistent growth.
Watering Schedule:
Skipped watering this week due to high humidity levels, which kept the soil moist since the last watering at the end of the previous week.
Plant Morphology:
Stem Growth: Strong and stable, indicating excellent structural integrity for supporting future buds.
Internodes: Relatively short, leading to a compact structure—a trait uncommon for Blue Dream and suggestive of a strong Indica influence in this phenotype.
Foliage: The leaves exhibit classic Indica characteristics, with broad, dark green blades.
Observations:
The plant’s Indica-dominant appearance is surprising given Blue Dream’s typical Sativa-dominant profile. This could lead to unique results in both growth patterns and flowering characteristics.
Next Steps:
Maintain consistent environmental conditions and monitor for signs of water requirements next week.
Continue full nutrient feeding while observing for any changes in plant response.
Consider early training techniques if needed to balance compact growth.
This plant’s performance remains impressive, and its unexpected traits make it a fascinating grow to observe. 🌿

Progress Update:
This week presented challenges for the Blue Dream plant, as it experienced significant stress that slowed its overall growth. Despite these setbacks, there are signs of resilience and areas to monitor closely.
Challenges Encountered:
Growth Slowdown: The plant's development was significantly slowed due to training stress. Height growth was almost negligible, while the main stems continued to strengthen.
Branch Damage:
One branch appears to have self-snapped after training, with less than half of the stem damaged.
The affected area has dried out and shows no visible signs of mold or infection. The branch currently looks stable, but it may need to be removed if recovery stalls or the damage worsens.
Root & Soil Management:
Root Development: The plant shows good root penetration and is well-rooted in its pot.
Watering Strategy:
Currently providing 2 liters of water per pot to promote root expansion without oversaturating the medium.
The goal is to keep the soil slightly drier in areas, encouraging roots to explore for moisture.
Nutrients:
Kept feeding levels stable to avoid further stress. The recent repotting with older soil is expected to supply additional nutrients, negating the need for immediate increases.
Growth Behavior:
The plant continues to focus its energy on main stem development rather than lateral spread, indicating a tendency toward vertical growth.
Early indications suggest that this phenotype might be less adaptable to training techniques like LST or topping, making it a unique challenge for cultivation.

Training Progress:
The plant remains difficult to train, but persistence is paying off.
Due to short internode spacing and flexible stems, I have managed to shape a relatively even canopy.
Since Blue Dream tends to grow tall, I’m continuing to stay proactive in training to prevent it from outgrowing my tent.
Growth & Nutrition:
Stem Development: Solid and sturdy, showing good strength.
Fertilization: Slightly reduced nutrient levels. The newly transplanted soil should still hold enough nutrients, reducing the immediate need for high feeding.
Leaf Mass & Watering:
The plant has low leaf mass, resulting in less transpiration.
Compared to untrained plants, water consumption is significantly lower.
🔥 New Environment – Bloom Room! 🔥
It’s getting too cold, so I moved the Blue Dream into my flowering room. The 200W light is now keeping temperatures stable, while I’ve reduced airflow by 50% to retain warmth.
⚠️ Training Struggles & Cold Damage ⚠️
Unfortunately, two branches snapped during training.
The cold temperatures likely weakened the structure, making it more fragile.
Despite the setback, the plant is pushing forward—slow but steady!
📈 Growth Outlook
Now that it’s in the warmer flowering room, I’m hoping for faster growth.
My flowering spaces are empty, and I’m ready to restart full production!
Blue Dream’s structure is finally shaping up, and I’m excited to see how it reacts to the improved environment.
