D33jW Week 1 – Day 7 / FLO 0 🌞 Temp: 30°C 💦 RH: 77% 💥 PPFD: 200–350 µmol 🌬️ VPD: 0.9 ⚡ EC: 0.2 💦 H2O: 100 ml / 24h The plants are growing very well, even though my light intensity and environmental settings were not perfect at the beginning. I’m still waiting before doing the first full watering of the entire pot. Timing is very important here if you want your soil and roots to develop properly and have good oxygen access. A good indicator for the first full watering is when you start to see roots on the sides of the pot or coming out from the bottom. This shows that the root system is established enough to handle it. Let’s keep pushing 🙌

D33jW Over the past two weeks, the plants went through a challenging phase caused by low night temperatures, which led to a noticeable drop in turgor. They appeared heavily droopy despite regular watering. After identifying the issue and stabilizing the environment, everything is now back on track. The plants have fully recovered and regained healthy structure and vigor. During this period, they were transplanted into 7L pots, which made a huge difference in stabilizing the root zone and overall growth. They were also moved into an 80x80 tent, giving them a more controlled and optimized environment. I started LST early on, and later adjusted it to ensure all main tops are at an even level before the stretch begins. The canopy is now well balanced and ready for the next phase. The light schedule has been gradually reduced by 1 hour every 24 hours, and currently sits at 13/11. This approach is helping to ease them into the flowering phase more naturally. To finish things off, I performed a light defoliation and removed weaker lower tops that wouldn’t develop properly. The focus now is on directing energy into strong, productive sites. Overall, the plants are healthy, recovered, and well-prepared for the stretch phase.

D33jW So far everything is running very smooth. The plants entered the flowering phase without any issues and are showing a very healthy structure. Stretch has started and is getting more noticeable day by day, but still under control. I’m doing regular adjustments with LST to keep an even canopy and make sure all tops receive equal light exposure. Night temperatures are now stable and kept at a higher level, which made a big difference compared to the previous weeks. Turgor is on point and plants are responding exactly how I want them to. Light is running at 100% power, giving around 700 PPFD at canopy level. At this stage it feels like a sweet spot – enough energy to drive the stretch, but without stressing the plants. Overall, I’m really happy with how they transitioned into flower. Strong structure, healthy growth, and everything set up perfectly for the next week.

D33jW This week the plants really started to take off. They went through the entire period without base nutrients, as they’re not showing any deficiencies at all. I’m only running additives like CalMag and Power Buds, plus one application of Final Solution from BAC. So far they are handling it perfectly and staying in great condition. Stretch is now in full effect. They are growing fast and I’m adjusting the light almost daily to maintain around 700 PPFD at canopy level. Trying to keep everything balanced while still allowing them to fully express themselves. Turgor has improved significantly – leaves are praying more and more each day, and the plants look very vibrant and full of energy. Watering is now fully dialed in. They’re drinking around 800 ml every 24 hours, which feels stable and consistent. Environment is steady with VPD staying below 1.3, and it clearly reflects in how the plants are behaving. Flowering is progressing nicely, with bud sites developing across the canopy. One thing that really stands out is that all plants are already showing slight purple tones on the pistils. It doesn’t look like random variation, but rather a shared trait across the genetics, which is very interesting to see this early. So far they are proving to be very consistent, responsive, and easy to work with – definitely enjoying this run.

D33jW This week things are progressing nicely and the plants are entering a more advanced flowering stage. Feeding is kept under control – I’m occasionally adding a bit of base nutrients, keeping EC around max 1.1. I’m trying to manage nitrogen levels carefully, and since the plants are not showing any signs of deficiency, there’s no need to push anything. Stretch seems to be mostly finished at this point. Plants are starting to frost up nicely and the first aromas are becoming noticeable, which is always a great sign. I was aiming to control the stretch a bit more, but running 13/11 for too long resulted in a slightly stronger stretch than expected. Still manageable, but a good note for the next run. Turgor remains at a very good level – leaves are healthy and plants are holding strong structure. Did a lollipopping on day 21 of flower, cleaning everything from the lower part of the plants. Also moved one of the fans down to improve airflow under the plants. Watering has increased to around 1L every 24h, and the rhythm is very stable now. Environment is dialed in, with VPD going slightly higher this week, reaching up to around 1.4. Really enjoying how these genetics are developing – strong, resilient, and already showing nice resin production and early terpene profile.

D33jW End of week 4 and the flowering phase is getting more and more interesting every day. I’m still not using any base nutrients. At this point it feels like the nitrogen coming from the CalMag alone is enough, maybe even slightly too much. Because of that, this week I’ll focus more on controlling salt buildup in the medium and letting the plants fade into a lighter green naturally instead of forcing more feed. Resin production is becoming very noticeable now. Frost is increasing day by day and some tops are already starting to look properly coated much earlier than expected. Water uptake remains very consistent at around 1L every 24h, and honestly it feels like they could already handle even more. The metabolism and overall vigor of these plants are impressive. Structure is holding nicely after stretch and the plants continue to look very healthy, with strong turgor and great response to the environment. Really enjoying this stage now, the genetics are starting to show their full character, both visually and in overall plant behavior.

D33jW End of week 5 of flower and everything is still moving in a very good direction. Feeding remains on the lighter side as I still don’t see any reason to overload the medium with nutrients. This week they received one application of Green Sensation and responded very well. I also checked the runoff from one plant and the EC came out at only 0.4, which only confirms my belief that pushing heavy feeding can often create more problems than benefits when the plants are already healthy and performing well. The final defoliation has been done to expose lower bud sites, reduce humidity a bit, and improve airflow. Plants are now starting to develop some beautiful purple coloration on the leaves, and soon I’ll lower night temperatures below 20°C to help bring those colors out even more. Resin production keeps increasing daily and the plants are looking happier with every passing week.

D33jW End of week 6 of flower. Still dealing with humidity spikes after watering. I’m running a small dehumidifier that honestly can’t fully keep up, but so far I don’t see any negative impact on the plants or flowers. Average VPD over the last 10 days has been around 1.3, so overall the environment still stays within a solid range. I also can’t really lower night temperatures right now because the room itself stays too warm and I have no practical way to run fresh air directly from outside. At this point I’m simply working with the conditions I have, and judging by the flowers, the plants seem very happy anyway. Feeding remains very light. They’re still mainly getting CalMag and Power Buds, although I’m already reducing the dosage. Over the last 10 days they also received Green Sensation twice. Flowers keep developing beautifully, resin production is getting heavier every day, and the plants are starting to show more and more character as they mature.

D33jW End of week 7 of flower. The battle with environmental conditions continues. Humidity is still higher than I would like, and temperatures remain on the warm side. To reduce evaporation from the soil surface, I’ve switched to watering through the saucers, which seems to be helping. I’ve also connected every fan I have available to maximize airflow throughout the tent. Unfortunately, I still don’t have a way to bring night temperatures below 20°C, so for now I’m focusing on optimizing everything else within the limits of the environment. Feeding remains very light. This week they received one application of Green Sensation, while the rest of the time it has been just water with CalMag and Power Buds. Despite the less-than-perfect conditions, the plants continue to perform very well. Buds are putting on weight nicely, resin production keeps increasing, and the aromas are becoming deeper, stronger, and much more mature with each passing day.
