Irrai I moistened the light mix with warm water — about 5–6 liters per 25 liters of soil — and firmly filled the 11L pots, letting them temper for a few days beforehand. Meanwhile I tested and fine‑tuned the CO2 system. 🌡️💧?
So far nothing unusual has happened — no stretching or other issues — we wait in eager anticipation. 🤞🌱✨

Irrai The little fairy still watches over me and helps me with all my annoying questions. 🧚♀️💬
The little lemon cherries didn't show any signs from the small procedure; they're growing and thriving. 🍋🌱😊

Irrai I'm a bit behind on week 3 — I was out of action for a short time and still need a little more time; week 4 will follow at the end of this week 😋.
All good so far — no notable incidents. After stressful periods I water additionally with Alg-A-Mic in low doses; so far no negative effects observed. 🌱💧🙂

Irrai Everything's going well here too — the little massacred lady has recovered and is thriving now. 🌱 She's being given a bit of pre-feeding 🍽️ and the light is being increased gradually 💡. Let's see how she does over the next while... 👀

Irrai So far I think everything’s going well. As a little test I topped the small LCC in the middle again — even though I messed up quite a bit with her, I’m curious to see whether she’ll fall behind or still develop pretty well. 🌱🔍
I paused the CO₂ tests for now because with low ventilation and at 1200 ppm the bottle was already empty just from watching — so it’ll most likely be a case of CO₂ running out during flowering. 💨⚗️

Irrai Nothing unusual — compared to the others, all three are a bit stockier. I occasionally bend stems slightly to improve light distribution and remove leaves that I think cause too much shading. ✂️🌿 A few plants got height adjustments so the lamps don't have to hang at awkward angles.

Irrai LCC’s been a bit hit-or-miss — I put most of them through mistakes, stress and aggressive training, so they took a beating. 😅🛠️ Aside from one stubborn plant, the rest bounced back nicely, and even that stubborn one should still give a decent yield — I’m optimistic. 🌿💪
I fiddled with the CO2 and tweaked the setup, but rising heat and RH forced me to cut the run after about 8 hours. 🌡️💨 Once humidity drops I’ll run another tuned test and aim for a longer, stable interval. 🤞🔧
Should be interesting — either it pays off or the setup proves unsuitable, but either way I’ll know soon. 👀✨

Irrai Everything's going smoothly — no problems. They're getting plenty to eat and regular downtime so the roots can breathe. With the little LCC 3 I also gently bent the main colas outward to improve light distribution. Because of the new addition, I'm only doing the bare essentials in the tent for now. 🌿🌞🌬️?🔆

Irrai Currently back to experimenting with CO₂ enrichment and wrestling with the humidity levels, but overall things are much improved across almost every parameter — progress! 🌿✨ I’m optimistic I can get the system dialed in and use it effectively.
I also gave the plants a little extra LST to open the canopy so the developing buds get more light — they’re responding nicely. 💪? I reorganized the tent layout too; if the weather forecast holds, the Stixx will be free soon and I’ll start some bottom-side stimulation to encourage stronger growth. 🌱
Quick notes:
CO₂: experimenting with controlled enrichment — monitoring closely.
RH: still fluctuating; aiming for stable mid-range humidity.
Training: light LST to improve light penetration.
Feeling positive — steady tweaks, steady gains. 🌱🌞

Irrai They really surprised me — Lady No. 3, all the way front left in the corner, has come into her own and really opened up 🌺. I’m already excited for the upcoming harvest; she’s looking spectacular and will definitely stand out visually. Little Fairy will be thrilled too 🐾✨
They’re responding nicely to the CO₂ and seem mostly unfazed by the 75–80% RH — it was a real fiddly job 😅 — but after I removed the four little plants destined for the second batch of outdoor queens from the room where the tent sits, I was able to drop RH by another 4% and temperature by 2.5°C 🌬️. I’ll be traveling for the next few days, so I’m curious to see how they hold up while I’m away . During the trichome check everything has still been clear so far.

Irrai They’re literally eating the hair off my head, I swear. 😵💫?
And the gorgeous color keeps throwing me off—I'm like, “Okay, they must be done by now”… and then they press out more white stigmas....🤗
So yeah, here too it’s mostly: feed, observe, smoke and repeat. 🍽️👀
And honestly? I’m already looking forward to the tasting rounds… the “taste-test gladiator” moment is coming. 😋🔥🍇

Irrai They’re getting close to the finish line now— 2 Ladies are still being fed. The first one is already only getting water. I’m pretty sure next week we’ll start slowly relocating them out of the tent, so they can enjoy their full 3 days of dark rest. 🌱😵💫

Irrai I took one out three days ago, and now there are still two hanging out inside the tent. ⏳🌿
I’m waiting for the right moment to “release” them—when the timing feels perfect and the buds are exactly where they need to be. 🌸
Until then, I’ll keep things steady and let the last stage do its thing, because that final window is where the magic really lands.
Next check: I’ll watch closely for the final shift in density and that last ripening feel before making the move.
