ElNass Season 2 continues with White Russian by Serious Seeds โš”๏ธ. Same 113 L living soil ecosystem, fully regenerated from Season 1 stronger roots, richer microbiome, and precision SCROG training. White Russian โ„๏ธ started her story more slowly ๐Ÿข. Next to her Bubblegum sister she seemed to lag behind, but her first leaves ๐Ÿƒ were healthy, a soft shade of green ๐Ÿ’š. She too only received declorinated water ๐Ÿ’ง during her first days, letting her roots settle into the living soil. #livingsoil #organic #scrog #season2 #seriousseeds #ledgrow #nemessis200w #elnassgrow

ElNass Step by step ๐Ÿ‘ฃ, White Russian grew stronger. She developed her first nodes ๐ŸŒฟ and, although smaller, showed resilience ๐Ÿ’ช. She also received a small dose of worm tea. #livingsoil #organic #scrog #season2 #seriousseeds #ledgrow #nemessis200w #elnassgrow

ElNass This week she also tasted her first enzyme tea, about 0.3 L. The reaction was clear: her central leaves opened wider ๐ŸŒฑ and looked stronger. Sheโ€™s still smaller than Bubblegum ๐ŸŒ vs ๐Ÿ‡, but her dark green color ๐ŸŒณ and compact shape show perfect health. No topping for now โ›”โœ‚๏ธ she still needs a couple more nodes. In the meantime, I may start some gentle LST ๐ŸŽ—๏ธ to help her spread out and stimulate lateral growth. #livingsoil #organic #scrog #season2 #seriousseeds #ledgrow #nemessis200w #elnassgrow

ElNass The White Russian may be more subtle, but sheโ€™s starting to show her true potential this week. After the topping, sheโ€™s begun spreading out nicely helped by the LST and SCROG training, opening up her structure for even light and airflow She got the same two-step treatment as her sister: first the enzyme tea with sprouted lentils to wake up the soil and root zone, then the worm tea to nourish the microbial life and feed her deep. The effect is clear balanced growth, lush green color, and a strong, active root system. With the second LED added (now 400W total), light penetration and uniformity improved a lot. Conditions are stable at 26ยฐC and 65% humidity, creating a perfect microclimate for lush vegetative growth. Sheโ€™s no longer the shy one the White Russian is stretching confidently, ready to take her place on the net with power and grace. โ„๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ Sheโ€™s growing slow, steadyโ€ฆ and strong. ๐ŸŒฟ #livingsoil #organic #scrog #season2 #seriousseeds #ledgrow #nemessis200w #elnassgrow

ElNass This week was all about fine-tuning the structure: some light training and careful canopy management under the SCROG net. I spread the tops evenly to fill the remaining gaps, creating a flat and balanced canopy. The net is now nearly full, and the White Russian is looking ready to shine ๐Ÿ’ฅ The plants are showing deep green leaves and steady growth, no stress, just pure vitality ๐Ÿ’š After this week of detailed work, on October 12th Iโ€™ll be doing a top dress with worm castings and malted barley, followed by an enzyme tea on October 15th to keep the living soil active and thriving through the stretch. Edit: October 12th: I did a targeted defoliation to improve airflow and light penetration, removing the biggest fan leaves shading the tops. Right after that, I applied a top dress with: โ€ข Worm castings โ€ข Freshly ground malted barley โ€ข Neem cake โ€ข Bat guano โ€ข Kelp meal โ€ข Basalt rock dust โ€ข A bit of charged biochar To activate everything, I watered with 5 liters of freshly mixed worm tea, stirred by hand and applied immediately. Both plants reacted perfectly new leaves are already standing tall and the tops are reaching up through the SCROG net On Monday i will switch to 12/12 to start flowering! ๐Ÿ‘‰ Everythingโ€™s set for the flip and whatโ€™s sure to be a powerful flowering stage! ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ”ฅ #livingsoil #organic #scrog #season2 #seriousseeds #ledgrow #nemessis200w #elnassgrow

ElNass The White Russian has been thriving this week, pure energy and structure. After a deep defoliation session earlier in the week, she bounced back immediately, filling the canopy with uniform tops and thick, healthy fan leaves. I enriched the living soil with a top dress mix of worm castings, malted barley, neem, kelp, bat guano, basalt and biochar, followed by a good worm tea watering. The soil life exploded, clover regrowth, plenty of visible activity, and strong turgor on every branch. Tomorrow, Iโ€™ll feed her a lentil enzyme tea to enhance microbial activity and boost the roots during this early bloom stretch. Sheโ€™s looking vigorous, balanced and ready to pack on some serious frost soon ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’ช Edit: By Friday, the environment got a big upgrade, a 6-inch extractor and carbon filter from Mars Hydro are now running smoothly, improving air exchange and reducing those night-time humidity peaks. Today (Sunday) I brewed an enzyme tea from lentils, full of natural growth stimulants, to support roots and microbes during the first stretch of flowering. Everythingโ€™s in harmony, soil life, structure, and energy are perfectly aligned ๐ŸŒฑโœจ #livingsoil #organic #scrog #season2 #seriousseeds #ledgrow #nemessis200w #elnassgrow

ElNass The queen keeps pushing strong, her structure is filling the net with healthy tops and perfect leaf posture. Stretching is still under control, and the color remains deep and vibrant. Installed the new 6โ€ extractor + Mars Hydro carbon filter this Friday: silence, airflow, and zero odor issues! Today she got her enzyme tea (lentils) for that natural enzyme kick and smoother nutrient cycling. The soil is thriving, moisture perfectly stable and cover crop doing its job. Sheโ€™s almost ready for her first real bud set, canโ€™t wait to see her bloom. ๐ŸŒฟ Balance, patience, and living soil doing the magic. #livingsoil #organic #scrog #season2 #seriousseeds #ledgrow #nemessis200w #elnassgrow

ElNass What a week for the White Russian! ๐Ÿ’ฅ Sheโ€™s officially in full flower mode and looking absolutely stunning. I started the week with a heavy defoliation and lollipopping on the lower parts to open up airflow and redirect energy to the top colas. Tomorrow Iโ€™ll continue with the upper canopy cleanup, just removing the biggest fan leaves shading the inner buds. Even though I couldnโ€™t water as much as I wanted this week (work kept me busy ๐Ÿ˜…), the living soil did its magic and kept everything stable. No signs of stress, just happy leaves and strong growth. The structure is perfect: balanced stretch, healthy color, and buds starting to stack beautifully. The whole canopy looks like one green wave under the lights. ๐ŸŒฟ Next step โ†’ enzyme tea tomorrow made with lentils to boost microbial life and help her transition smoothly into full bloom. Edit: This Sunday I performed a top dress designed to support the onset of flowering on my 113 L living soil system, followed by watering with an enzyme tea made from sprouted lentils to stimulate enzymatic and microbial activity in the rhizosphere. Top dress composition: Worm castings โ€“ 5 tbsp (microbial inoculation & organic stability) Organic malted barley (finely ground) โ€“ 2 tbsp (natural source of amylase, protease & enzyme activity) Hydrolyzed kelp โ€“ 1 tsp (phytohormones and metabolic stimulation) Cuban bat guano โ€“ 1 tbsp (phosphorus, calcium and trace minerals for floral development) Gypsum (calcium sulfate) โ€“ ยฝ tsp (soluble calcium & structural balance) Basalt rock dust โ€“ 1 tbsp (micronutrient remineralization) Oyster shell crush โ€“ ยฝ tsp (slow-release calcium carbonate for pH stability) Living biochar โ€“ 1 tbsp (microbial habitat and improved CEC) The goal of this top dressing was to provide biologically available energy and a balanced mineral profile during this key transition phase, maintaining microbial diversity and ensuring a steady release of P, K and trace minerals. Plants are responding positively, healthy leaf color, strong apical growth, and consistent floral formation across the canopy. Canโ€™t wait to see how she fills out in the next days ๐Ÿ’š #livingsoil #organic #scrog #season2 #seriousseeds #ledgrow #nemessis200w #elnassgrow

@Hattiwatti, Thanks bro ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š Iโ€™ve checked out your diaries, theyโ€™re insane! I love growing in living soil, but sooner or later Iโ€™ll also start giving my plants a bit of SPA treatment ๐Ÿ˜‚. The idea of making my own tobacco also really intrigues me

@ElNass, I have tried soil, coco and hydros. Hydros suits me best. Good results also in coco earlier but next I'm prob going for big (30L) sub irrigation pots with soil. Tobacco growing is really easy but to cure it for good smoke is pain in the ass ๐Ÿ˜‚
