Clone to harvest - 4 Strain SoG indoor

GreenHobbit Clone to Harvest – 4 Strains This run is completely based on clones. Used were: • Eazy Plugs • Clone EX • constant humidity • moderate light for rooting After 7–10 days, all clones were fully rooted. Clean, strong root development – no failures. Strains in this run: • Somango XL – Royal Queen Seeds • Pure Power Plant – Sensi Seeds white label • Early Skunk – Sensi Seeds • Big Bud – Sensi Seeds The goal of this grow was to accompany four different genetics under identical indoor conditions from rooted clone to harvest – including structure comparison, stretch behavior, bud density, and final fade. ⸻ 🌱 Phase 1 – Rooting The clones were placed directly in Easy Plugs and supported with Clone EX. Within 7–10 days: • visible root tips • even development • no stress • no lagging of individual plants A stable start is half the battle. In the next updates, we will cover: • Veg phase development • Training & structure • Stretch analysis • Flowering parameters • Late flower & autumn fade From Clone… to Harvest 🍁

GreenHobbit In week 2, we moved from the rooting stage into the first real growth phase. The clones had been in Easy Plugs for 10 days and were fully rooted. Strong, white roots – no failures, no stragglers. They were then transplanted into 4L pots. Setup for this run: • 4 cuttings per strain • 4 strains • A total of 16 plants • Area: 70 x 70 cm • Goal: compact SoG (Sea of Green) Thanks to the even rooting, the transplanting went absolutely stress-free. All plants adapted to the new substrate immediately and started growing steadily in the vegetative phase. The structure for the SoG was intentionally kept tight – the goal is a homogeneous, even canopy with minimal training. First differences in growth are now visible: • Pure Power Plant shows the strongest forward push • Big Bud builds solid, strong stems • Early Skunk remains compact • Somango XL develops a bit more sensitively, but steadily In the coming days, it will become clear which genetics will take the lead during the stretch. The run is going clean and controlled so far – just how I envision a clone SoG.

GreenHobbit Light Upgrade & First Nutrients The difference from last week is clearly visible. In direct comparison from week 2 to week 3, it shows: • significantly more compact structure • stronger leaf mass • sturdier stems • more homogeneous structure throughout the SOG Light Change This week I switched to the Spider Farmer SF-1000. Start of the week: • 30% power • 40 cm distance Throughout the week, I gradually increased to: • 60% power The plants adapted very well to the change. No stress, no leaf burn, no signs of light pressure. Growth became visibly denser and more controlled. First Nutrient Application This week saw the first "ignition": • Hesi TNT • 50% of the manufacturer's recommendation Deliberately set moderate to avoid over-fertilization. Reaction: • rich, healthy green • no tip burn • no nitrogen surplus • stable internode distances The plants look vigorous and are reacting exactly as I envisioned. Structure in the SOG With 16 plants in 70x70 cm, the area is slowly starting to close. • Pure Power Plant continues to show the strongest forward drive • Big Bud is massively building leaf mass • Early Skunk remains compact • Somango XL is developing more stably than in the first weeks The goal remains to achieve as even a canopy as possible to optimally enter the stretch. Conclusion Week 3 Light upgrade + first moderate fertilization = clear growth spurt without stress. The run feels controlled. The structure is right. The pace is right. The stretch is approaching.

GreenHobbit Week 4 – Vegetation / Transition to Flowering Stretch Start & Canopy Control This week was noticeable: Now it’s getting serious. ⸻ 💡 Lights at Full Power The SF-1000 was ramped up to 100% power over the week. Reaction: • significantly accelerated height growth • strong internodes • visible stretch start • more intense leaf development The plants handled the full power well – no signs of light stress. ⸻ 🚀 Growth Spurt All strains made a solid jump upwards. Especially noticeable: • Big Bud – clear leader in height growth → about 1/3 taller than the rest • Pure Power Plant is also steadily catching up • Early Skunk remains a bit more compact • Somango XL is in the middle of the pack The canopy began to even out significantly – however, with one outlier. ⸻ ✂️ First Height Correction The tallest plant (front right – Big Bud) was slightly bent over to balance the canopy. Reaction: • no stress • no growth stoppage • clean regeneration It handled it super well and stabilized in no time. ⸻ 🌸 Switch to 12/12 At the end of the week, I consciously switched to flowering (12/12). Reason: With 16 plants in 70x70 cm, it was clear – if I wait any longer, the tent will be completely overgrown. The stretch needs to remain controlled and not escalate. ⸻ 📊 Conclusion Week 4 • Structure is set • Area is nearly closed • Height differences under control • Flowering initiated The run is now entering the decisive phase. The stretch will show which genetics take the lead – and whether Big Bud maintains its advantage.

GreenHobbit Week 5 – Early Flower Bloom Visible & Light Upgrade This week is clear: The bloom has arrived. The first visible flower sites are clearly showing on all plants. The stretch is still ongoing, but the energy is now visibly going into flower formation. ⸻ 🌸 Nutrient Switch Switching to: • Hesi Bloom Complex • 50% of the manufacturer's recommendation Started consciously moderate to lead the plants cleanly into bloom. Reaction: • healthy, rich leaf green • no burn • stable leaf structure • strong new growth The transition from veg to bloom nutrients went stress-free. ⸻ 💡 Light Upgrade – SE3000 Midweek, I turned on the Spider Farmer SE3000. Start: • 40% power • 40 cm distance Increased by the end of the week to: • 60% power The higher light intensity is showing results: • more compact flower sites • more intense growth • denser leaf canopy No light stress, no bleaching – the plants are responding very well to the setup. ⸻ 🌱 Structure & Dominance Currently, the Big Bud (right row) continues to dominate. • strongest stretch • significantly higher main shoots • strong stem development The other strains are catching up but remain a bit more compact. The canopy is still manageable, but you can tell: The stretch is not yet complete. ⸻ Climate The relative humidity has been lowered to 50%. Goal: • mold prevention • better flower development • more stable VPD in Early Flower ⸻ 📊 Conclusion Week 5 • Bloom clearly visible • Stretch ongoing • Light output significantly increased • Nutrient switch implemented cleanly • Structure still under control The next 10–14 days will determine how the height differences will finally settle. The run still feels controlled – now the phase begins where quality takes shape.

GreenHobbit Week 6 – Stretch ends, Buds stack The flowering is now in full swing. The stretch is still slightly ongoing, but the explosive vertical growth is visibly tapering off. The energy is now clearly going into bud formation. ⸻ 🌸 Bud Development • Budsites are getting denser • first clear "stacks" recognizable • Pistil formation strong and even • Internodes beginning to close Especially the Big Bud (right side) continues to show its dominance – long colas with many bud sites along the main stem. The more compact strains are visually catching up and forming a denser canopy. The tent is now well filled – SoG is working. ⸻ 💡 Light • Distance still about 40 cm • Power gradually increased to 80% The plants are responding well to the intensity: • no lightening • no burnt tips • stable leaf structure The canopy is now relatively even – except for the Big Bud, which is still slightly above 😏 ⸻ 🌿 Nutrients Nutrients unchanged: • Hesi Bloom Complex • still moderately dosed The plants show no signs of deficiency. Leaf color is rich, no signs of over-fertilization. The setup seems stable. ⸻ Climate Relative humidity lowered to 45%. Goal: • optimal conditions for mid-flower • minimize mold risk • clean VPD in the flowering area Especially with the increasing bud density, this is an important step. ⸻ 📊 Conclusion Week 6 • Stretch is slowly winding down • Buds are visibly stacking • Light intensity almost at target • Climate adjusted • Canopy full – but controlled Now begins the phase where mass and resin production ramp up. The next two weeks will determine density and quality.

GreenHobbit Week 7 – Canopy Control & Density This week, it's clear: The stretch is over. Now it's all about flower mass. The structure is set. Now it's time to densify. ⸻ 🌿 Strain Development The Early Skunk has visibly caught up and now fits much more harmoniously into the overall picture. The Big Bud remains visually dominant, but by actively adjusting the height, the tent now looks significantly more homogeneous. For Pure Power Plant and Somango XL, I raised the pots to achieve an even canopy. Results: • better light distribution • fewer hotspots • more uniform bud development • clean upper edge SoG is really paying off now. ⸻ 💡 Light The lamp was increased to 90% this week. Distance unchanged. The plants are responding steadily: • no light burns • no signs of bleaching • strong flower formation It's clear that the energy is now fully going into the buds. ⸻ 🌸 Flower Status • Buds are starting to become denser • Internodes are closing • first signs of light resin formation visible • pistils still fresh and white The Big Bud shows long, stacked colas. The other strains are developing more compact, rounder flowers. ⸻ Climate The reduced humidity is paying off. The canopy has become denser, but the air circulation seems to be just right. No signs of moisture stress. ⸻ 📊 Conclusion Week 7 • Canopy actively balanced • Light nearly at maximum • Stretch completed • Bud stacking in progress • Structure cleanly controlled From now on, we enter the phase where weight and resin decide. You can see: This is not a random grow. This is planning + control.

GreenHobbit Week 8 – Peak Energy & Phosphor Push This week marks the final densification phase. The structure is set. Now weight and resin are determined. ⸻ 🌸 Flower Development You can clearly see: • Buds are densifying • Calyxes are visibly swelling • first real layer of resin on the Sugar Leaves • Pistils are still mostly white, but denser Especially the Big Bud is now pushing massive mass. The colas are becoming more compact and starting to stack. The other strains are following suit – more compact, uniform buds. ⸻ 💡 Light Lamp now at 100% power. No signs of stress: • no bleaching • no upward curling leaf edges • stable leaf color The canopy looks very even – leveling the height is paying off maximally now. ⸻ Nutrients Midweek start with Hesi Phosphor Plus, as always cautiously: → 50% of the manufacturer's recommendation Clean reaction so far. No signs of over-fertilization. Leaves remain stable green. ⸻ Climate Humidity stable in the safe range. The buds are getting denser, but with good air circulation and a clean structure, I currently see no risk. Now is the phase where control is more important than actionism. ⸻ 📊 Conclusion Week 8 • Light at maximum • PK phase initiated • Buds beginning to visibly swell • Resin formation starting • Canopy very homogeneous

GreenHobbit Week 9 – Maintained Stable Ripening Phase Week 9 went by without changes to the previous setup. The plants are clearly in the ripening phase. The structure is set, now it's all about density and maturation. ⸻ 🌸 Flower Development • Buds have visibly gained mass • Calyxes continue to swell • Resin production has significantly intensified • First pistils are starting to change color The colas appear more compact than in week 8. The buds are closing up further and building density. Differences between the strains are now clearly visible – especially in the structure of the colas and resin coverage. ⸻ 💡 Light Lamp still at 100%. Distance unchanged. No signs of light stress or bleaching. Leaves show a stable, slightly darker late-flowering color. ⸻ Nutrients Fertilization unchanged from week 8: • Base fertilization as usual • Hesi Phosphor Plus at 50% of the manufacturer's recommendation Reaction remains stable. No signs of over-fertilization, no burnt tips. ⸻ Climate Climate values kept constant. Humidity remains in the safe range for the increasing bud density. No abnormalities. ⸻ 📊 Conclusion Week 9 • Setup maintained unchanged • Plants are responding steadily • Significant densification • Resin formation is visibly progressing From now on, the phase of precise ripening observation begins. Trichome inspection will be crucial in the coming days.

GreenHobbit Week 10 – Final Nutrient Phase Week 10 marks the last week with fertilizer. The plants are clearly in the final ripening stage. Structure and bud formation are complete – now it’s all about maturation, resin production, and color play. ⸻ 🌸 Flower Development • Buds noticeably dense • Calyxes appear plump and closed • Resin production at a very high level • Pistils mostly discolored The colas are stable and compact. Some tops are already showing visible signs of ripeness. ⸻ 🍂 Color Change Slowly, the typical fade begins: • Yellow fan leaves • Some reddish/purplish hues • Light autumn look setting in No signs of stress – clear natural ripening process. ⸻ Nutrients Last week with fertilizer application. Setup unchanged: • Base fertilization as before • Phosphorus Plus still moderate Starting next week, only water will be given. ⸻ 💡 Light & Climate • SE3000 still at 100% • Distance unchanged • Climate kept stable No new adjustments necessary. ⸻ 📊 Conclusion Week 10 • Ripening phase fully underway • Colors beginning to develop • Maximum resin production • Setup running stable without interventions From now on, trichome inspection will determine the harvest time.

GreenHobbit Week 11 – Harvest & Flush Week 11 – no more nutrients. From now on, just water with pH 6.2–6.4. The plants are clearly in the final ripening process. Autumn is visibly here. ⸻ 🍂 Fade & Colors • Noticeable yellowing of the fan leaves • Purple and reddish hues intensify • Some dark anthocyanin coloring near the buds • Natural nutrient breakdown visible No stress signs – clean end cycle. The color palette varies significantly depending on the strain and creates a strong finish. ⸻ 🌸 Flowers & Resin • Buds look mature and compact • High resin content • Pistils mostly retracted and discolored • Trichomes mostly milky, first amber heads visible The structure is set. Now it’s just a matter of ripeness. ⸻ 💧 Nutrients Only water now. pH stable between 6.2–6.4.
