WaffleTerps Starting the Scarlet Flame project under the WaffleTerps name, growing Tropicanna Poison F1 Fast Version (Sweet Seeds).
The goal is to bring out its deep red hues and sweet, fruity aroma, aiming for a clean, balanced and high-quality result.
The grow is fully automated with the Spider Farmer Smart Grow System, controlling temperature, humidity, VPD and light intensity directly from the phone.
Using Top Crop Complete Mix substrate in 15.2 L Smart Pots, with active EC, temperature and soil-moisture sensors.
During the first week:
• Temperature: 22–25 °C
• Humidity: 75–85 %
• PPFD: ~270 µmol/m²/s (light at 20 %)
• Soil EC: 1.6–1.9 mS/cm
• CO₂: 600–900 ppm
All seedlings have germinated successfully 🌱
The bottle in the center contains an extra seed germinated “just in case”; if it thrives, I’ll let it grow right there as a small side test.
Everything’s stable so far — strong roots forming, healthy cotyledons, and balanced environment.
Next step: keeping humidity steady and preparing for the transition to vegetative growth.

WaffleTerps We’re still fine-tuning the environment this week humidity has been a bit low and the substrate temperature slightly high.
Any tip for this??
Today we started Week 2 (early vegetative) with the first nutrient mix.
Prepared 2.4 L of water (pH 6.0 / EC 1.0 / 21 °C) and added:
Bio-Grow – 2.4 mL
Root-Juice – 2.4 mL
Bio-Heaven – 1.2 mL
Atazyme – 2.4 mL
Sensi Cal-Mag Xtra – 3.6 mL
Watered 300 mL per plant (8 plants total) after filling pots with extra substrate for better root coverage.
Lights were increased to PPFD ≈ 375 µmol/m²/s, humidity is sitting around 70 %, and everything’s looking healthy and strong for this stage.
Thanks to everyone following the grow! Feel free to drop a comment or suggestion — always happy to learn and share the progress together.
