Winter Wonderland 2025, 2x4, 8 clones

WeedbayGarden In this grow diary we will be following the growth and flowering of 8 plants. You can find more info about making the Chem DD F3 x Raspberry Parfait seeds in my previous grow diaries "Raspberry Parfait solo plant, pollination & sinsemilla!" and "Lemonhoko Chem DD F3 NoTill Ikea Stealth". I also wanted to test out some strains from my seed vault and ran into Space Monkey, the seed pack was already kind of old and it this plant was the only one from the pack that managed to germinate. Ace mix includes hybrid mixes of Ace seeds strains from their recent breeding projects. This includes land race strains from all over the world, Malawi, Panama, Guatemala, Congo, Vietnam, China, Pakistan and Afghanistan for example. Might be a bag of worms, might be a motherlode, you never know if you won't try. 18.12 | Now that I see the pictures taken its clear the plants are screaming for more nutrients. I have kept a low feed until now to limit growth speed, since my 2x4 is still in use with the plants that these clones were taken from. I will be getting the 2x4 tent empty within two weeks, these plants are already asking for it with the amount that these drink.

WeedbayGarden 4.1 - I have been super busy with finishing the earlier runs so these plants have suffered late waterings and a bit of draught with it. Still looking good, started to raise base nutrient amounts to more normal veg numbers. I only had 50w LED-panel for these plants since half of my fixture broke down, no problem since it was an extra anyway. Silica and Recharge is fed once a week, other nutrients go in with every normal watering.

WeedbayGarden 7.1 - Tent is now emptied from last round, Ebb&Flood system cleaned, tent walls scrubbed, fans repositioned, intake filter refreshed. Still using old two carbon filters on one exhaust fan, both ends connected to filters. I already bought a spare if I start to notice any smell coming from the tent, this is one reason I positioned the carbon filter to easy switch location inside the tent. Bluelab calibration coming next week, I aim to do it every two weeks for accuracy. I defoliated and cleaned up some bottom growth from the plant before placing them under the two trellis scrog nets, easier to do it outside the tent. I will see how the lower growth starts to catch up, if it doesn't reach the trellis before getting shaded out, I will clean it up a bit more. I usually do the clean up at day 10-14 of flower, that way I can still take clone's if I need any. 8.1 - Plants are getting used to the tent's environment and light intensity. I have two led fixtures to light up these plants, first one is 240w with 3000K QB288 v2 panels without far red diodes, second one is 240w 3500K QB288 v2 R-Spec panels with far reds. I have now dimmed both fixtures to 90 watts each, so 180 watts total. I have been dealing with thrips in my grow room so I added 20 000 n.cucumeris predator mites on top of the coco inside the pots. This way if there is any eggs still to be born, those will be eaten by the predator mites. I also added 7-week predator mite breeding pouches (white hanging ones), which have predator mites in many different life cycles, so eggs, babies, adults. I have also used pyrenthrin spray two days ago to kill all living thrips on the plants, I hope all this gives me a good foundation on this grow.
