YEAR 1
--------
Everything began in August 2018, with a 40×40×120 tent, one CFL Wings 125 (50 real watts), and 3-liter pots. 😅
The very first seeds I ever grew were Cheesy Auto from Philosophers Seeds. Two plants which, in 11 weeks, gave me… 11 grams.
After that, I doubled down: same conditions, but with 2 Sweet Skunk from RQS. Also 11 weeks. Also 11 grams.
In the second half of the year, I clearly understood that space and light are essential; after two harvests like that, no wonder… Still, I stayed modest: a 60×60×180 tent and a 65w Chinese pink LED.
I tried 4 Cheesy Auto from Philosophers Seeds again; result: 34 grams from the 4 plants in 13 weeks. A small, very small improvement😁 (see photo)
End of the first year: a (very) mixed result.
56 grams from 8 plants. That’s 7g/plant.
YEAR 2
--------
The second year was marked by switching to 7-liter pots, and buying a second identical Chinese LED, for a total of 130w, plus a 120×60×180 tent.
14 plants grown to completion: Quick One (see photo), Royal Dwarf, Northern Lights and Caramel from RQS and Zamnesia. Result: 225g for the year. 16g/plant. Better, but still far from good. 😉
YEAR 3
--------
The third year, I tried to maximize yields with the equipment I had. I still moved up to 11-liter pots and grew 19 plants: Kalini Asia, Royal Gorilla, White Widow, AK420, Diesel, Amnesia, Couskush and Bubble Kush from RQS and Zamnesia. Result: 361 grams for the year, 19g/plant; progress, but still not enough.
At the end of the year, I bought 2 MarsHydro TS600. My first “real” lights…
The fourth year marks my arrival on GrowDiaries… 😊

YEAR 4
--------
The 4th year starts with 1 Fat Banana from RQS and 1 Amnesia from Zamnesia, which together produced 84g; 42g per plant, it felt like a revelation at the time 😊
After that, I figured I’d pack the tent with 3 Hulkberry from RQS and 3 Monster Dwarf from Zamnesia, which gave me 165g from the 6 plants; a small ratio, but it was the first time I harvested more than 100g…
Mid-season. That’s when I signed up on GrowDiaries 😎
In January, I started 3 OG Kush from RQS, my first photoperiods, followed in March by 4 Royal Cookies, also from RQS. (see photos)
Total for this 4th year: 390g from 15 plants, which is 26g per plant.
In 4 years, I barely passed the one-kilo mark.
The fifth year would be the year of change 😉

YEAR 5 - 1st quarter
----------------------
The 5th season begins with the same setup.
The novelty of this season is the substrate: from this point on, all my indoor grows will be done in coco coir.
Five Northern Lights plants, 2 from RQS indoor and 3 from Zamnesia outdoor, take up the first quarter.
With 5 plants, they will produce 212 g.
For the first time, one of them alone exceeds 100 g.

YEAR 3 - 2nd quarter
-----------------------
The 5th season continues with 3 Gorilla Punch from FB and 3 Original XXL from GB in the same tent.
A disappointment: with 6 plants, they yield 179 g, less than the previous 5. But in only 10 weeks.
Green Brand did better than Fastbuds for a first try.

YEAR 5 - 3rd quarter
-----------------------
In the 3rd quarter, I start 3 Strawberry Banana from FB and 1 Royal AK from RQS.
But I allow myself a small upgrade: I replace the two TS 600 (100 W) with two TS 1000 (150 W).
The four plants give me 247 g, my best harvest so far,
With an average of 62 g per plant.
I also made a bit of bubble hash 😏
@UnorthadoxDude, thx 😊 I’ve just finished a nice White Widow run; I also have one week left to finish my Banana Purple Punch, and I’ve just started 5 Triple G 😉
