First 🌱💚

BIG-JAY-AL DAY 1 In for a good start I believe 💚🌱 Dome been off for 48 hrs. everything coming along nicely. A bit of uneven new growth. I Will see if it’s not going to sort itself out. Added prepared soil to pot and watered. WC dropped to mid 30’s, as expected. Took the opportunity to correct mild stretch. DAY 2 All good, raised temp slightly, co2 followed along for some reason. She’s on 🔥 WC Dropped to mid 30’s again? Had to water again. New roots expanding from buried stem? I can’t explain the drop. Anyway, corrected and monitoring. Starting to tilt? 🌱😅 Moved fans around. The fact that I had 2 fans in same side of tent made great mixing of RH blast, but I Think it contributed to the tilt. DAY 3 Still Got the tilt 🌱 I am going to Roll with it and see where it leads it. Hooking up drip set again, stays in this time. 💧 Leaving for 3 days. ⭐️ DAY 4 + 5 Gone away 🤞🌱 Day 6 Back again. Came Home to the ugly duclkling. It looks like If anyone has seen this before and have the solution feel free to Comment 👍😅 My own theory I am rolling with is: This is because of Germ stress, root swirling, buried cotyledons + beginning of true leaves. New growth looks slightly more structured. I Will Keep doing what I am doing, keeping things stable, and see if it self corrects. DAY 8 I spend day 7 figuring out what the heck had gone wrong with ICE. I lowered vpd back to 0,6-0.8 and ppfd to 280. Half a day went by and she lit up again. ⭐️💚 I pushed the button on vpd and ppfd to fast in relation to stage/situation 🚫 (just came out of recovery) I started feeding BIO Grow and BIO Heaven 150 ml at a time 3 times a day and everything clicks again. Lesson learned. 🌱 Looking good going in to week 2 of veg. Old deform and curved growth will come off as soon as training begins 🤞🌱

BIG-JAY-AL DAY 1 Height: 7 cm Water amount: 2,0L Nodes: 3 (4th forming) Visual: Looks good. Old growth still ugly because I pushed vpd to hard, to early after recovery. - Coming off soon anyway. Comment: Lower floor at WC was 35% up untill today. It stalled earlier today in late 30’s, I thought I would wait it out untill it hit 35 but it was not going anywhere. Wc late 30’s Ec 0,19 Gave 250 ml feeding water After watering Wc at 60 Ec 0,22 1 hour of crazyness Ec gets sucked down to 0,19 and wc bumping up and down until stalling in mid 40’s Then i refeed with 250 ml water and same thing happens This pattern continues and is now on its 5 cycle. And this little sucker just keeps pulling it in 🌱💚 IF it is the plant pulling in water and nutrients, it is simply remarkable that the baseline WC for optimal uptake has increased around 10% practically over night. Added a picture of the crazyness 🔥💚🌱 DAY 2 height: 8,5 cm Water amount: 0,0L Nodes 3 (4th unfolding) Visual: All good, Rosette’s getting bigger and unfolding. Took off old leaves. Don’t know if it was the right Call, but data shows everything is stable and plant looks good. ⭐️ So i took the opportunity to remove them. ✂️🌱 DAY 3 Height: Unknown Water amount: 0,0L Nodes 3 (4th forming) Visual: Nice color, internodes stay nice and tight, no stretch worth mentioning anyways. Stem is thickening. Slow is smooth, smooth is fast. 👌🌱 Comment: Going away for a couple of days. Ran eq response test, all good, everything is communicsting with me and each other. Filled humidifiers, reservoir and so on. DAY 4 Height: unknown Water amount: 0,2L Nodes: 3 (4th nearly done) Visual: all good 👌⭐️ Comment: Turns out my EQ made a negative feedback loop which resulted in ggs failure, no control over devices no data to see what’s going on, I didn’t know if heater was making a fire, drip set making water damage or what was happening. I could Connect individually to my AC10 and shut off/turn on, so I stopped the immediate frustration and danger. Working night shifts, this happened at 00:10 Reason: my humidifer which cools the air got in a fight with my heater, so because the humidifer was blasting full power, it went in to some connections inside tent. Solution: at work, i connected to my AC10 Got control some control, but without data. Got home around 0900 morning. Disconnected everything from Hub, connected sensors again, and they worked. Connected my devices 1 by 1. Found out that it was the RJ12 cable from vent and RJ12 cable from upper clip fan which was had taken some condensation in ports, and caused ggs to hub failure. Took out gear for drying a couple of days, then reasses. Hooked everything up, tested it out, off to work again. FORTUNATELY, Ice Cream Cake did not surfer any damage 💚🌱 DAY 5: Away 🤞🏃‍♂️ DAY 6 height: 9 cm Water amount 0,0L Nodes 4 (5th forming) Visual: Topped it between 3rd and 4th node. Keeping it low and wide. Took a couple of branches off underneath. First time doing this. So I Will wait a day or two and see how it grows, which branches to take off next and how to train it. Lots of things to take into consideration DAY 7. Height: 6 cm Water amount 0,3L Visual: Letting it be, and recover from topping.

BIG-JAY-AL Day 1 Height: 9 cm Water: 0,0L Visual: 4 Spears clearly showing along with the two on top. Comment: Got my gear board installed today. No more malfunctioning ports while away 🤞⭐️ Also put spider farmer heater hose outside tent to blow into air intake creating a more passive buffer. EQ Can easily start fighting each other in 90x90 had to disconnect drip set, took plant to bathroom at lights out to rewire setup. DAY 2 Height: 9,5 cm Water: 0,0L DAY 3 Height: 10 cm Water: 0,5L DAY 4 Height: 11,5 cm Water: 0,0L Visual: Canopy getting more Bushy and dense, popped out the 4 Spears from underneath, Will just let it grow for now, and ensure good airflow. Leaving for a couple of days. Hooking up irrigation again. Not optimal, taking in and out. 👎 DAY 5 Height: unknown Water: 0,2L Visual: Looks okay. Slight discolouring on tips of new growth. Damage from high RH + airflow Found a couple of wet leaves. Have not got the time for defoliation and/or light LST, before in a couple of days. Hang in there Buddy 🌱💚 Comment: Had to go to a meeting. The opportunity of popping in, back Home came around, I of course took it. DAY 6 Gone away 🤞⭐️ DAY 7 Height: 16 cm Water: 0,3L Visual: Looks good and dense, starting lst and defoliation. Adjusting ties every couple of hours and defoliate a bit of the time.

BIG-JAY-AL DAY 1 Height 17 cm Width: 25x23 cm Water: 0,40L Visual: Looks good, responding Well to the LST. Adjusting every few hours, defoliating along the Way. DAY 2 Height: 17 cm Width: 35x35 cm Water: 0,7L Visual: Everything moving along nicely, pulling a branch down here and there to keep it nice and even. Looks like a weed-bonzai 😂 DAY 3 Height: 17 cm Width 37x37 Water: 2,5L Visual: Nice color, stem thickening nicely, pulling a branch and cutting a leaf here and there as we progress. Comment: Fully saturated pot today 2L. 1L at a time and 1 hour between each. Can’t wait for it to explode 💥🌱 Lowered temp in order for me to lower RH without vpd spiking. DAY 4 Height: 15 cm Width: 37x37 Visual: Looks good and green. Middle is filling up nicely. Comment: Cleaned irrigation system with 9L RO water + 1L vinegar. Then rinsed it out with 15L RO water. Nice and clean 👌⭐️ Mixing new feeding water tomorrow. Yum Yum!! 🌱💚 DAY 5 Comment: Leaving for a couple of days. Everything filled, tested, checked and double checked 👌🤞 DAY 6+7 Gone away. Keeping track on data.

BIG-JAY-AL DAY 1 Height: unknown Width: unknown Water 0,5L Visual: Nice and sense canopy and thickening of branches. Needs slight guidance and defoliation. DAY 2 Avg height: 13 cm Width 40x41 cm Water: 0,4L Visual: Did some light defoliation, and guidance. DAY 3 Avg height: 13 cm Width: 40x41 Water: 0,5L Visual: Thinned it and spread before leaving for a couple of days. DAY 4,5,6 Gone. DAY 7 Avg height: 14,5 cm Width: 35x35 cm Water: 4x200 ml Visual: Filled out nice, Will thin and train tomorrow. 1 top site lacking behind. Will create light for it tomorrow and let plant decide if it is viable.

BIG-JAY-AL DAY 1 Avg height: 14,5 cm Width: 35x35 cm Water: 0,8L Visual: Looks good, thinnef out a bit, created light for lacking bud site. Conmment: Created slight dry over night DAY 2 Visual: A Little light green, still pulling tops. Comment: Slowly increasing ppfd DAY 3 Visual: Defoliated a bit heavier allowing more air in center and a whole lot more light to each spear DAY 4 Visual: All good, starting to get deep green color again 💚 Comment: Bumped up N, earlier. Clearly shows. Installed trellis, and tray DAY 5 Visual: All good. Accelerating. DAY 6 Visual: Going a little light green. Comment: Mixed feeding water a lille light on N, because i thought I would not be able to come for a couple of days, for safety measures. DAY 7 Visual: Quick change in color after returning from work and bumping N back up. Comment: Last day of VEG. Cleaned out irrigation system, i do that every 14 days. Smelled like vinegar and rotten Meat Introduced Bio Bloom and Top Max to the mix 1ml/l First and last time I do organics and irritation together. It is manageable, theres just a lot more work than with minerals. Flipping tomorrow, LET’S GO! ?🌱

BIG-JAY-AL DAY 1: FLIP DAY Avg height: 20 cm Width: around 45x45 cm Water: creating slight dryback allowing “room” in soul for new nutrient mix. Total amount of today unpredictable, if it needs any at all. Aiming for 55-57% Wc before starting irrigation with new mix. - ended up giving 2x150 ml Visual: All good 🌱👌 Comment: Aiming for a VPD drift between 1.0-1.1 10 cm untill we reach net. Day 2 Avg height: 20,5 cm Width: 45x45 cm Water: 12x150 ml Visual: Good color overall, no signs of trouble. Comment: Plant did not suffer significant transition stress by the looks of the WC chart. Even though it went a bit cold. I forgot to set heater cycle to twice the execution times given its 12 not 6 hrs anymore. DAY 3 Height: 21 cm Width 40x42 cm Water: 12x150 ml Visual: Took some of the undergrowth away. Comment: Increasing ppfd a little DAY 4 Height: 21,5 Width 40x42 Water: 1x1000 ml 6x150 Visual: Looks good, no problems. Comment: Ppfd sensor is now moved 10 cm above canopy height. Ppfd is still in the 640-50 range at canopy. DAY 5 Height: 22 cm Width: 42x42 Water:10x200 ml 3x 150 Visual: Looking good. Growth velocity is not on point though. Cranked vpd to 1.1 - 1.3 Maybe the pull is not enough. Comment: Tested runoff which is a thing I Will do everytime now! Water is 1,4 going in and 1,0 going out, pH going in 6,0 BUT given i have not have oxygen delivery system for reservoir AND running organics the drift of pH and control has been out of place. It has been more safe to hand water. - That changes tomorrow though. Anyway pH going out is 7,2. Which means there’s a High chance that it has not been able to pull the nutrients in the necessary rate. ALSO I should have vegged it 1-2 weeks more. Noted. DAY 6 Height: 23 cm Width 42x42 Water: 10x200 3x150 Visual No signs of trouble. Getting a bit crowded, thinning out in a couple of days. Comment: Still slow growth velocity, root zone might still be slight alkaline. Not sure though. Oxygen system for reservoir installed 👍 Day 7 Height: 24 cm Width: 45x44 Water: 10x300 3x150 Visual: Had hoped it would have exploded up in the net, but I pushed net down today. Tops were getting Wild to control. Comment: Reservoir control on point again 👌 Will be easier keeping growth velocity up going forward. Still .. a lot of mistakes were made, but also a lot of lessons learned.

BIG-JAY-AL DAY 1 Height: 24.5 Water: 4x300 1x200 Visual: Looks awful. It hates life 😂 We ended up short. Comment: Getting a bit dense. DAY 2 Height: 24.5 cm Water:4x300 1x200 Visual: Last day being this full. Comment: Definiely should have vegged 1-2 weeks more, and did a better cleanup before switching to flower! DAY 3 Height: 25 cm Water: 4x300 1x200 Visual: Cleaned up, it needed that. Comment: Will get better timing next run. DAY 4 Height: 25 cm Water: 4x300 1x200 Visual: Things are looking up. DAY 5 Height: 25-26 cm Water: 5x200 1x200 Visual: Starting to get pretty again 🌱💚 Comment: Smell starting to form. And yes it do actually smell like a bakery, leaving me hungry everytime i get out of there 😅 DAY 6 Avg height: 26 cm Water: 4x300 2x200 DAY 7 Avg height: 26,5 cm Water: 4x300 2x200

BIG-JAY-AL DAY 1 Avg height 27 cm Water: 4x300 2x200 Visual: All good, a bit tight though. Comment: Next run spread better. Rh drifting between 50-55% DAY 2 Avg height: 27 Water: 4x300 2x200 Visual All good i Think 😅 Comment: Canopy was getting sense again. Did a light clean up. DAY 3 Avg height: 30 Water: 4x300 2x200 Visual: All good. A little light green Comment: Upped grow and heaven by 0,5 ml/L DAY 4 Avg height: 33 Water: 4x300 3x200 Visual: Bud sites popping 💚 Comment: Stretch has ran away from me, and I can’t get my self to handle it now that its producing bud sites. DAY 5 Water: 4x300 3x200 1x350 Visual: Better color, still a little bright though. Comment: Id rather miss out on a little then go to heavy with N untill I get a better hang on this. DAY 6 Water: 4x300 3x300 Visual: All good Comment: Faster drybacks, more EC uptake. Will try go keep wc/ec as stable as possible while stacking and bulking. Transpiration before irrigation. DAY 7 Water: 4x300 3x300 Visual: Getting dense. Comment: Will do a final cleanup

BIG-JAY-AL DAY 1 Water: 4x300 3x300 Visual: All good, nice and open again. Comment: Should have been better at spreading, earlier. Dont know If I took too much off though. It is very compact in certain areas. It grew a little close to the lamp with the tallest Spears. Moved lamp upwards. Top leaves should return to normal color 🌱 DAY 2 Water 4x300 3x300 Visual: Light bleach on top 👎 Turned Down ppfd and raised lamp 5 cm. Plant was tangling with sensor the other days. Some burned pistils, som burned sugar leaftips. Will Keep monitoring and see if it doesn’t get better. DAY 3 Water: 6x500 handwatering. Visual: Top sites starts to look relaxed and fresh again. What damage is done - is done. Problem corrected. Focus on new growth. Comment: WC jumped from 57-60 without irrigation. I suspect some pocket development. I flushed with milder solution, then stepping up gradually to current EC again (1.4) Flushing water: PH: 6,3 Ppm 506 EC: 0,7 Only thing I did not crank down is CalMag. Full dose 0,8 ml/L Next watering plan is to land around 1.0-1.1 And then back to current. Maybe its better to just jump straight back, I dont know. I Will try this, monitor and see where it takes it. While in there i finally had enough of looking at my mistake with the trellis/stretch/timing. The Way i originally did it would have required 2 nets. I had 1. I thought F it! It’s gonna work out this time and I get a second for next run. And I Will just Roll with whatever height it reaches. That decision had not done anything Else than create problems. So i felt the top stems. - still flexible and open for training. Re adjusted things so that 1 net would keep things a bit more level and open. I really should have done this earlier instead of being stubborn and holding on to my bad decision and pride. Hope it works out 🤞 (I felt like real idiot handling it, with those small bud sites. Should have been done earlier.)

BIG-JAY-AL DAY 1 Water 5x300 3x200 Visual: Last week, it just kept increasing hunger Daily. Did not want to bump to hard so it took around 3-4 days to hit true EC uptake. It is coming together nicely. Comment: Just keep having the Feeling of it could have been much further by now. It is, what it is. I believe this stems from bad timing in relation to training and defoliation. TIME TO BULK AND GET THEM GAINS ICE! 💚🌱

BIG-JAY-AL DAY 1 Water: p1 4x300 p2 3x300 Visual: All good, nice and frosty, Swelling had truly begun. Some tip burn. (1 mm spread around on random leaves) Also tops have yellowish/lime spots, might be rapid growth OR light bleach. Comment: Will monitor the burn. I guess I’m on the edge of EC. As for the light bleach I kept same lamp intensity and raised it 5 cm. That decreased ppfd by around 100. Keeping as is and monitor. DAY 2 Water 4x500 3x300 Visual: Looks good. No sign of trouble so far. DAY 3 Water 4x500 3x300 Visual: Looks good, Discovered a deadzone in opposite corner of lower fan. Pulled things from each other, created airflow. Comment: Begun flower bomb today. Pushed Ec from 2.0 to 2.3 Will Keep monitoring 👀 DAY 4 Water 4x500 3x300 Visual: Nice and frosty. - or at least there is some 😅 Comment: A/C arrived today! Pretty much the key to mastering VPD! 🌱💚⭐️ DAY 5 Water 4x500 3x300 Visual: All good, a bit of darkening+clawing begun. Comment: Increased Bloom to 8 ml/l Will reduce grow to 1,5 tomorrow and go back to 7 ml/l Bloom. If it straightens. Up Bloom to 8 ml/l Keeping Flower bomb 1 ml/l from now through week 7 of flower. EC today was around 2.5 DAY 6 Water 4x500 3x300 Visual: Burn and clawing has not worsened. Comment: New EC today is 2.2

BIG-JAY-AL DAY 1 Water 4x500 3x300 EC 2.1 Visual: All good 👌🌱 Comment: Keeping current feed untill tri’s starts getting all clouded, then I Will start ripening. But I Think there’s at least a week left of production. DAY 2 Water 4x500 3x300 EC 2.1 Visual: Coming along nicely. 🌱💚 Comment: Starts to smell really good. A friendly warning: the smell of bakery it produces is going make you hungry all the time! 😅 DAY 3/4/5/6 GONE. Will be monitoring data. Feed is 1.8 EC, just to ensure no stall during away period. Cant wait to get back. DAY 7 Water 3x500 3x300 Visual: Bigger. A bit more clawing. I was prepared for that. Comment: Came Home last night. Met the smell of bakery at the front door. 🌱💚 Will give one more day of 1.8 EC. Given organics in reservoir pH drift no matter how good you make conditions. So I Will clean out soil with 1.8 EC solution at 6,3 to make sure my readings are correct and not faulty judged because of actual pH drift in solution to soil.

BIG-JAY-AL Day 1 Water 3x400 4x200 Ec 1,1 Visual: Bit Dark green and still clawing. Comment: flushed soil with feed without Bio-grow in it Yesterday mix was at 1.6 with 1 ml/l grow in it. Cut out grow and bumped Bloom 1 mll/l down EC 1,1 pH 6,3 - also installed co2 system today. Huge upgrade for future runs. DAY 7 Water 4x500 5x400 EC 0,3 Visual: Couldn’t see anything seriously wrong. Will have to go through every inch tomorrow at lights on. Comment Been away for 6 days, came om on the 7th day. She stalled last week with nutrients, and started drinking a ton of water compared to earlier. Been tapering down last weekend, left with 0,3 EC sensor shows no salt build up, and still drinks 3-4L a day. Was Home at lights out of course. Came Home to House stinking 💚🌱 the excitement and anxiety Got a hold of me, so I went in to check with green light. Only thing I could confirm was increase in size 😅 took a Quick visual, not optimal.

BIG-JAY-AL DAY 1 Water 5x1L EC 0,0 PH 6,4 Visual: Curling and burn has not worsened. Still a bit Dark. Pistils starting to Brown. Comment: Gave her pure RO water today Only pH in it. Will start giving CalMag from tomorrow and continue with that untill final 5-7 days.

BIG-JAY-AL Time is Coming to an end slow and steady.

BIG-JAY-AL Would have expected her to finish at the end of last/start of this week. It seems to me that she might have a week more to go or she finishes in this week. Time Will tell I guess.
