SweetSeeds f1 FV MR & SBC / M&O Grow#1 /

MO_PureLeaf Looks good at the moment. Let's wait and see what next week brings. Hesi nutrients 2% less than Hesi feeding schedule indicates. sbc f1 is taking a bit of time. #W1(2) I trimmed them a bit on December 2nd, but I also noticed they are getting lighter. There could be several factors contributing to poor watering behavior, ...or or or... but since I water 1/3 of the pot volume at regular intervals and hardly used Super Vit in the beginning (2 drops in 13L of water - once a week), I will use Super Vit every time and up to 4 drops maximum. I'll keep you updated 🏼

MO_PureLeaf We are now in the second week of flowering. Since the last feeding, there have been noticeable improvements – both the leaf color and the stems look overall healthier and more vibrant. It's particularly positive to see that the previous yellowing has significantly decreased. I trimmed all four plants at the bottom again to better direct the energy to the upper areas. Afterwards, I watered them again, this time with 5 drops of SuperVit, to further support nutrient uptake. The goal was mainly to bring the leaf color to a richer green – with success. Overall, the condition of the plants has clearly improved. The growth looks more balanced, and the plants give a stable, healthy impression. I am very satisfied with the development so far and am curious to see how they will unfold in the coming days. Peace 🖖🏽

MO_PureLeaf BW3 – Running really well The girls have really picked up this week. Stretch is over, the canopy is nice and clean, and everything is well distributed. Light is now at 100% and pulled all the way up – light is coming down nicely from above. After the last defoliation, everything looks airier, the bud sites are now nicely open. One Strawberry Cola has gotten a bit lighter, nothing dramatic – I’ve slightly increased the feeding (HESI, pH 6.2–6.5). Overall, they all look healthy: fresh hairs, juicy leaves, flower development is starting. If they keep up the pace, it’s going to be a chill bulk phase. Peace.

MO_PureLeaf Flowering – Week 4 | Weekly Update The stretch is complete and the buds are visibly developing day by day. Overall, very vigorous plants; the F1 genetics show solid power. On some older fan leaves, there are slight lightening between the leaf veins as well as small rusty spots. This could indicate a slight Cal/Mag deficiency under LED during flowering. From the next watering, Cal/Mag will be supplemented and PK slightly reduced to stabilize the nutrient balance. The climate is currently stable, and the light is running at full power. Overall, very satisfied with the progress so far and looking forward to the coming weeks.

MO_PureLeaf The ladies have clearly entered the stacking phase now 💪 Mental Rainbow F1 Fast Version and Strawberry Cola F1 are developing beautiful, compact bud sites and are visibly gaining mass. The stretch is over, and now all the energy is going into the flowers. The climate was a bit challenging this week due to the cold, especially at night. Low temperatures were sometimes significantly below optimal, but we managed well with heating and an open tent. Currently, everything is stabilizing again at around 21–23 °C and 45–55 % RH. Color-wise, the plants are looking noticeably greener 👍 Some older leaves are showing slight lightening/spots, which is most likely due to a slight Cal/Mag deficiency (LED + cold nights). This has been recognized and addressed accordingly – Cal/Mag will now be supplemented regularly and moderately. Fertilizing continues according to the HESI scheme, currently being pushed a bit cautiously since the light is running at 100% and the plants are taking the nutrients well. There’s a slight drain, and the root zone feels healthy. The last major defoliation is done; now just selectively removing a few fan leaves to allow light and air to pass through well. No more stress training – the focus is now clearly on flower development and terpene production. Overall, a very solid position at the halfway point of flowering. If the climate remains stable, the next few weeks should be a lot of fun!

MO_PureLeaf 🏼Sorry for the delay, but I got sick over New Year's and ended up with a bad middle ear infection. Everything wasn't so great until last night, but today I'm on the upswing! I've done a lot of research and come to this conclusion. Unfortunately, I've just realized that the pH level of the soil is too low🤦🏻‍♂️ I used to grow with NDL and organic soil until recently. Well, you learn from mistakes 😅 From now on, I'll pay more attention to the drain 😅 I also had to say goodbye to the Strawberry Cola Sherbert… because it was too cold for her, and even the pH level did her in. I harvested the plant. It won't yield much, maybe a maximum of 10 - 15g, but there are a lot of terpenes in there, so I'll try to make some kief out of it :). Yeah, the one Rainbow #1 (on the left) has the same problem, but since it's in a 20L pot, it handles it better than the SBC. Only with RBM#3 is it a bit strange. It reacts really well to the nutrients and the Super Vit :) But still, I find the colors of the overall picture very beautiful and interesting :) I've learned a lot from this grow and will continue to order these seeds from Sweetseeds 🍀 The next grow is already in the starting blocks. Edit: I thought the old photos weren't very loving, so I took my time while watering and took some nice photos to catch up. I also recorded a nice video. Edit2: The third plant MRB is still swelling a bit in week 6, as you can see in the photos. From week 7 - 8, we'll start photographing the first trichomes.

MO_PureLeaf Mental Rainbow shows both her autumn, her natural colors, and the "light sickness" makes her own style, the colas are all very compact and very fragrant :) this makes growing, despite the later complications, quite pleasant :) And the buds from #MRB2 are swelling more and more day by day, and it's cool to see what the water change can bring :). For the second run of Mental Rainbow, we will work less with pH down and just let the water be water :) I will also only sporadically use Cal/Mag, and always let in 6 to 9 drops of Super Vit. We have grown for the third time up in the attic and have now figured out how to best maintain the climate in winter, keeping a constant 24 to 25 degrees during the day with 45% RH humidity and at night between 17 and 18 degrees, but a bit higher RH, which is then at a maximum of 50 to 51% RH in the tent. The attic itself usually had below 10 degrees at night, even 5 degrees and 55 to 60% RH. Luckily, we still had Styrofoam, and now our tent looks like a box from the outside 🤦🏻‍♂️😂 but it does what it’s supposed to :) which is to store heat and keep the cold air outside, and that works very well, and the tent is on a foam mat to hold back some of the cold from the ground. Our next improvements for our grow equipment: Trays for our fabric pots A UV lamp, or individual red and blue tubes. CO2 bags Nutrients from AN (as soon as we find a deal) New LST stakes We will keep you updated 🏼

MO_PureLeaf Yeah, so by noticing the pH value late, I totally messed up the plant 😅🤷🏽‍♂️. Well, okay, I learned from it, and I won't make that mistake again. There are a few positive effects that I can take away.

MO_PureLeaf So, this is the last one, The Last "Girl" Standing, it was really cool to grow the three and I will be growing Mental Rainbow again next after the Auto (Black Cream). I can definitely give more of the nutrients, root booster, and Power Zyme. Overall, the Mental Rainbow are also very robust and are keen to produce terpenes and buds in low temperatures. The plants also started to smell really strong towards the end. All in all - it was very cool to see the plants' colors and how they reacted to the training.

MO_PureLeaf The smell and terpene production has been good, it had more of a citrus scent but the smell was normal. We also trimmed at 18 degrees room temperature :)
