Many thanks to FastBuds for giving me the honor of growing your testers💚
Hello welcome to my new Growdiarie, nice to see you again. Today I will start my first indoor grow and take you with me on my journey. Since I was able to gain a lot of experience through my outdoor grow this year, the first indoor grow will be much easier. The reason for this is that the parameters for an optimal grow are easy to influence.
As in the previous grows, I decided to use the water glass method for germination. After about 48 hours the seedling root formed. The germination process was carried out at a temperature of 25° Celsius near a heater. Placed in water on December 17. Germinated on December 19.
The seedling was planted approx. 1 cm deep into the 25 liter pot. This time I used soil from Plagron. The pot was filled with Plagron Growmix. At the end I filled a hole the size of a 1l pot with Plagron Lightmix so that the seedling does not come into direct contact with the pre-fertilized soil.
Plagron Lightmix
N 180 mg/L - P 210 mg/L - K 360 mg/L
Plagron Growmix
N 216 mg/L - P 252 mg/L - K 432 mg/L
This time I will also work with fertilizer. I have two different ones to choose from. One is the mineral Plagron line (Terra Bloom, Sugar Royal, Big Bud, Greensensation) and the starter kit from Advanced Nutrients. As the soil is pre-fertilized for the first 3 weeks, it does not receive any additional fertilizer during the vegetative phase. After the first 3 weeks I decide which plant gets which fertilizer. At the end i can draw a rough conclusion as to which fertilizer series has performed better. The experiment is carried out with different varieties. I will also try tie down LST.
Set-Up:
Now a few words about my setup. I have full confidence in AC Infinity. During my research, I have only heard good things about AC Infinity. So what can I say? When the package arrived I was immediately impressed by the high quality. From the packaging to the product, everything is perfect. I ordered the lamp from kingbrite. The advantage of the lamp is that you can adjust the angle of the LED panels. The lamp is also compatible with the controller using adapter type b .

Welcome to week 1 of my grow diary. FBA2508 also took a little longer than the Apple Strudel to reach the surface. After 7 days it has reached a height of 6.5 cm. In terms of development, it is not quite as fast as Apple strudel, but that is not a problem.At this stage I watered it every day with a pipette. I gave it about 10 ml of water with some voodoojuice every day. As I have already mentioned, I want to fertilize some of the plants with plagron and the other part with advanced nutrients. However, as I don't have a root stimulator from plagron, I have decided to give all the plants Voodoo juice. The pH of the stale tap water had to be adjusted. The initial value was 8.2 and was then adjusted down to 6.2. I used the Onepen from Bluelab to measure the pH. To adjust the pH value, I used the pH from Terra Aquatica, which is based on phosphorus and nitric acid.
Avg. Temperature - 20°C
Avg. Humidity - 74%
Avg. VPD - 0,60kPA
The lamp runs at 10% which is 115w according to the energy meter. At a distance of 35cm the plant gets 300ppfd.
See you next week ✌️

Welcome to week 2 of my grow diary. This week I have increased the daily watering to 50ml as the plants are now big enough for more water. As in week 1, I added vodoo juice from Advanced Nutrients and lowered the ph value to 6.2 again using Terra Aquatica ph-down. The plant had a height of 10 cm at the end of the second week. Next week I will hopefully start training as planned.

Welcome to week 3 of my grow diary. I have increased the first watering of the week to 300 ml and then again to 600 ml as the soil dries out very quickly. The watering rhythm is now every 3 days. According to the fertilizer plan, the addition of Voodoojuice should be stopped this week. However, I used it again during the first watering this week. For the second watering I left it out. This plant will be fertilized with plagron in the future. That's why I started fertilizing with a bit of Sugar Royal this week. I am also adding B52 from Advanced Nutrients to see how the plant reacts. I'll test how it affects the plant. On day 18 I topped the FBA2508 over the second node. She tolerated the topping well. In terms of growth, it is somewhat slower than the Apple Strudel, but I noticed that at the beginning. At the end of the week it had a height of 13 cm.

Welcome to week 4 of my grow diary. This week I had some problems. The plants have apparently not yet tolerated the fertilizer dose. You can see the signs of nitrogen overfertilization. Otherwise it could also be overwatering, but I can rule it out with the small amount of watering. I have therefore decided to halve the amount of fertilizer. According to the fertilization scheme, the voodoojuice should now be omitted. The plant was fixed every day with the metal hooks to create as much light surface as possible. I also set the lamp to 20% at the beginning of the week. I can simulate sunrise and sunset with the help of the controller. The lamp goes up to 20% within 15 minutes and down to 0% in 15 minutes in the evening. I have increased the first watering of the week to 1l and the again to 2l to flush some of the nitrogen.

Welcome to week 5 of my grow diary. I decided to water only with water like last time. After the last 2l of water, the signs of over-fertilization have definitely decreased. I used 2.5 liters of pure pH-balanced water. I will now also fertilize this plant with advanced nutrients so that I don't always have to mix 2 different nutrient solutions. During the second watering I added voodoo juice and a small dose of b52, overdrive and big bud as I have discovered the first signs of pre-flowering just like the Apple Strudel. That means the stretch will also start soon. This week I also stopped adjusting the metal hooks so that the shoots can grow evenly on one level. As you can see, the plant is somewhat overgrown. Next week I will carry out the first defoliation.

Welcome to week 6 of my grow diary. As announced, I have defoliated this week and tied the new shoots down with wire as the metal hooks are now disadvantageous. I have now started with the Sensi Bloom B at half the dose and increased the watering to 3 liters. The plant has grown a lot this week. I have also set the lamp to 30%.

Welcome to week 7 of my grow diary. This week I had some problems. As the plants looked a bit unhealthy I measured the ph and ec of the drain. The ph was ok but the ec was at 3 which is way too high. That's why I flushed all the plants and stopped using fertilizer this week. This was probably because I was watering without drain. From now on I will water until drain flows out. Watering has been increased to just under 5 liters. The plant was also defoliated. The lamp was set to 40%.
Avg. Temperature - 20°C
