DogDoctorOfficial # πŸ‹ Pickle Lemon Haze F1 β€” Pheno A ## Germination Week | Aiming For The Moon Hello GrowDiaries family! πŸ‘‹πŸŒ± Welcome to the very first entry for Pickle Lemon Haze F1 Pheno A. Today marks the beginning of another journey inside the new Zamnesia tent project, where we'll be following these exciting F1 genetics from seed all the way to harvest. Just like the Blue Waffle F1 diaries, this project is being documented individually for each phenotype. Although both sisters share the same genetics, environment, and treatment, every plant develops its own personality, pace, and story. And from the very beginning, this particular girl already seemed eager to get moving. --- ## A New Project, A New Adventure This run is completely separate from my ongoing 12/12-from-seed project. Instead of flowering from day one, these plants are being given the opportunity to fully develop under a traditional vegetative schedule. Current plans include: - 18/6 light schedule - Full vegetative development - Potential Low Stress Training (LST) - Potential topping - Possible Scrog implementation - Structural development observations - Full seed-to-harvest documentation At this stage, however, everything begins with a healthy germination. --- ## The Cannakan Germination Method Like the rest of this project, Pickle Lemon Haze F1 Pheno A began life inside the Cannakan germination system. The process remains intentionally simple. The seed was placed into the system using only plain water. No nutrients. No additives. No stimulants. Just water. After approximately 24 hours of soaking, most of the water was removed while maintaining enough moisture to create ideal germination conditions. The seed responded quickly. Very quickly. Before long, a strong healthy taproot had emerged and was ready for planting. Sometimes seeds take their time. This one looked like she had a schedule to keep. --- ## Why Only Water? One question that often appears during germination is: "Why not feed the seed immediately?" The answer remains simple. The seed already contains everything required for the earliest stages of life. Inside that shell are all the energy reserves needed to establish roots and begin development. At this stage, I prefer allowing the seed to use those natural reserves exactly as nature intended. The objective is not to feed the plant. The objective is simply to wake it up. Water is enough. Nature already prepared the rest. --- ## A Taproot With Somewhere To Go One of the highlights of this week was the impressive taproot development. The photographs tell the story perfectly. Healthy. Bright white. Strong. Vigorous. The kind of taproot that immediately gives a grower confidence. Not every seed reveals its intentions so early, but this one certainly seemed determined to get moving. After seeing that development, the decision was easy. It was time for soil. --- ## Into Plagron Lightmix Once a healthy taproot had developed, Pheno A was transferred directly into Plagron Lightmix. This remains one of my favorite starting substrates thanks to its excellent aeration and forgiving nature during early development. After planting, the response was immediate. Less than 24 hours later, the seedling was already emerging above the soil and searching for light. The transition from seed to seedling happened smoothly and without complications. Exactly what every grower hopes to see. --- ## Why Use A Humidity Dome? During the first few days after emergence, the seedling spent time under a humidity dome. Young seedlings have only a very limited root system and therefore limited access to water. Maintaining slightly elevated humidity helps reduce moisture loss while roots continue developing beneath the surface. The humidity dome is not intended to become a permanent environment. It is simply a temporary support tool during one of the most delicate stages of life. As roots develop, the dome is removed and the plant begins adapting to normal growing conditions. The goal is adaptation. Not dependence. --- ## Building The New Zamnesia Grow Tent Kit This project is being grown entirely inside the new Zamnesia Grow Tent Kit. One of the biggest surprises during setup was just how straightforward the assembly process turned out to be. The entire system was assembled by one person. Tent. LED. Carbon filter. Inline fan. Ducting. Controller. Cable management. Everything. Even with a few adjustments required due to space limitations, the entire setup was operational in less than an hour. The instructions are clear, beginner-friendly, and easy to follow. Build quality immediately impressed me. The frame feels extremely solid, the materials feel durable, and the overall first impression has been overwhelmingly positive. Now it's time to see what the plants think. --- ## What's Included In The Kit? The complete Zamnesia Grow Tent Kit includes: - Grow Tent 100Γ—100Γ—200 cm - Phytonaut LED Grow Light 320W - Inline Duct Fan 150 mm - Carbon Filter Air Purifier 150 mm - Grow Environment Controller - Grow Tent Clip Fan - Flexible Ducting - 24-Hour Timer - Rope Ratchet Hangers - Velcro Cable Management Accessories Everything currently running inside this tent comes directly from this package. No substitutions. No upgrades. No modifications. This allows a genuine evaluation of the complete system exactly as supplied. --- ## Environmental Conditions For this first week, lighting was intentionally kept gentle. Using a PAR meter, light intensity was measured at approximately: ~200 PPFD Young seedlings simply do not require intense lighting. The objective at this stage is root development and healthy establishment rather than maximum growth speed. Environmental conditions remained stable throughout the week and the seedling responded beautifully. Healthy posture. Healthy color. Steady development. No signs of stress. Exactly what we hope to see from a successful germination. --- ## First Impressions Of Pickle Lemon Haze F1 Pheno A Although still only at the very beginning of her journey, Pheno A has already made an excellent first impression. Fast germination. Strong taproot. Rapid emergence. Healthy structure. Excellent vigor. And perhaps most importantly: Enthusiasm. Some seedlings emerge cautiously. This one looked like she was already planning next week's growth. Of course, seedlings have a habit of surprising us later, so we'll let time tell the story. For now, however, she certainly appears eager to get started. --- ## Looking Ahead Over the coming weeks we'll continue documenting every stage of development. We'll follow: - Root establishment - Vegetative growth - Environmental management - Structural development - Training decisions - Nutrient progression - Genetic expression - And whatever unique characteristics this phenotype chooses to reveal For now, Pickle Lemon Haze F1 Pheno A has completed a successful germination week and has settled comfortably into her new home. The roots are growing. The leaves are reaching. And if these first few days are any indication, she may already be aiming for the moon. Grower's Love everyone. πŸ’šπŸŒ±πŸ‹πŸš€

DogDoctorOfficial Folder 14 β€” Pickle Lemon Haze β€” Pheno A Week 1 Vegetation β€” Small Plant, Big Potential Hello growers, Welcome back to the Zamnesia Tent project. As with the rest of this run, each phenotype is receiving its own individual diary. Even when plants share the same genetics, environment, feeding schedule, and care, they often reveal unique characteristics as they mature. By documenting them separately from seed to harvest, we get a much clearer picture of how each phenotype develops throughout its journey. Today we are looking at Pickle Lemon Haze Pheno A, a young seedling that has quietly put together a very promising first week of life. At this stage, the focus remains simple: healthy roots, healthy leaves, and steady development. Everything else comes later. βΈ» The Environment Week 1 was all about providing consistency. The Zamnesia ecosystem maintained stable environmental conditions designed to support strong seedling development while minimizing unnecessary stress. Conditions throughout the tent averaged: * Temperature: 26Β°C * Relative Humidity: 71% Lighting was introduced at a measured 250 PPFD, which is slightly more aggressive than many traditional seedling schedules but still well within a comfortable range for healthy development. The fixture was operating at: * 27% power * Approximately 86 watts drawn from the wall The goal is to allow the seedlings to establish themselves under meaningful light intensity from the beginning while carefully observing their response. Air movement was provided by: * Zamnesia extraction fan running at Level 5 * Circulation fan running at Level 4 Together they create a stable environment with gentle airflow and excellent air exchange. βΈ» Feeding Program Although the earliest days were supported using collected rainwater, this week marked the beginning of the nutrient program. The seedlings have now received their first feeding consisting of: * Plagron Hydro A * Plagron Hydro B * Plagron Hydro Roots Mixed to: * EC: 1.53 mS/cm * pH: 5.96 * Water temperature: 24.2Β°C The objective at this stage is not maximum growth, but healthy root development and a smooth transition into the hydroponic-style coco system that awaits next week. So far, Pickle Lemon Haze Pheno A appears completely comfortable with the program. βΈ» Preparing The Coco System While the seedlings remain in their starter pots for now, much of this week’s work happened behind the scenes. The Plagron Premium Grow Bags have been filled and hydrated in preparation for next week’s transplant. Rather than flooding the coco all at once, hydration is being performed gradually through a reservoir-fed release system. This allows moisture to spread slowly and evenly through the medium, helping the coco expand naturally and uniformly. Only distilled water has been used during this preparation phase. By the time transplant day arrives, the medium should be fully hydrated and ready to welcome the developing root systems. βΈ» Pickle Lemon Haze β€” Pheno A For a plant this young, there is already plenty to like. Growth has been compact and controlled throughout the week, with very tight internodal spacing and a sturdy overall structure. The plant is finishing Week 1 pushing confidently into its third set of true leaves while maintaining a balanced and symmetrical shape. One of the first things that stands out is the leaf morphology. Compared to some seedlings that display narrower early growth, this phenotype is producing noticeably broader and rounder leaves. The overall appearance feels dense and compact, giving the plant a strong and healthy look despite its small size. A slight tip burn can be seen on portions of the first true leaves, but this appears to be purely cosmetic and limited to the earliest growth. New development is emerging cleanly, with healthy color, good vigor, and no indication that the plant is being slowed down. In fact, if anything, the newest growth suggests the exact opposite. The plant appears to have shrugged off that minor imperfection and continued forward without hesitation. The stem remains sturdy, the leaf posture is positive, and overall growth is progressing exactly where it should be for this stage. Perhaps the most exciting part is simply how uniform these F1 plants have been so far. While individual personality will undoubtedly emerge later, the early signs point toward strong stability and excellent breeding work. It will be fascinating to see what traits begin separating the phenotypes as they move deeper into vegetation. βΈ» Looking Ahead Next week should be a significant one. The move into the hydrated coco grow bags will dramatically increase available root space and mark the beginning of a new phase in development. With the roots no longer limited by the starter containers, growth should begin accelerating noticeably. For now, however, the objective remains unchanged: Healthy roots. Healthy leaves. Healthy growth. And Pickle Lemon Haze Pheno A is checking every box. βΈ» Thank You A huge thank you to everyone following this journey and supporting these diaries. Special thanks to: * Zamnesia for the genetics, equipment, and support that made this project possible. * Plagron for providing the nutrients and growing media used throughout the run. * The GrowDiaries team for providing a platform where growers can document, learn, and share their experiences. * And, as always, the incredible growing community whose knowledge, encouragement, and passion help make this hobby so rewarding. Week 1 is officially complete. The foundations are set. Now the real adventure begins. Growers Love and see you all next week as Pickle Lemon Haze Pheno A moves into coco and starts writing the next chapter of her story. πŸŒ±πŸ‹πŸ’š

DogDoctorOfficial πŸ‹ Project Blue Tent – Folder 14 Pickled Lemon Haze F1 – Pheno A Week 2 – The Journey Begins Welcome back to Project Blue Tent, my newest adventure focused on exploring Zamnesia Genetics while growing in Plagron Premium Coco Grow Bags using the complete Plagron Hydro feeding program. Every phenotype has its own diary because every plant deserves to tell its own story. Although all plants share the same environment, nutrients, and care, each one develops its own structure, rhythm and personality. This diary follows Pickled Lemon Haze F1 – Pheno A from her very first days until harvest. βΈ» 🌱 The Environment This project is being grown under an 18/6 light schedule, allowing the plants to enjoy long, energetic days followed by six hours of uninterrupted darkness to recover and continue building strong root systems. The entire grow takes place inside the Zamnesia ecosystem, creating a stable environment where every variable can be controlled consistently. Current environmental conditions remained very stable throughout the week: β€’ Temperature: 29Β°C β€’ Relative Humidity: 68% These warm, humid conditions are ideal for encouraging vigorous vegetative growth while helping the young plants establish themselves before accelerating into larger development. βΈ» πŸ₯₯ Why We Sink the Pots into the Coco One detail that often raises questions is why the starter pots are placed directly inside the Plagron Premium Coco Grow Bags instead of remaining outside until transplant day. There are several reasons behind this approach. The surrounding coco acts as a natural thermal buffer, helping keep the root zone at a much more stable temperature than a pot exposed directly to the air. It also helps maintain consistent moisture around the root ball, preventing the edges of the starter pot from drying excessively while avoiding large fluctuations between wet and dry cycles. Another advantage is purely practical. Because the pot sits inside the grow bag from the beginning, the final transplant becomes almost effortless. The plant never needs to adapt to a completely new environment, and the root ball slides directly into the cavity already prepared for it. Finally, shaping the cavity around the starter pot creates a perfectly fitted transplant hole. When the moment arrives, the root ball drops into place with almost no disturbance, eliminating air pockets and ensuring immediate root-to-coco contact. It’s a small detail, but one that greatly reduces transplant stress. βΈ» 🌿 Feeding Program The first irrigation after transplant introduced the plants to the Plagron Hydro line. Current nutrient solution: β€’ Plagron Hydro A β€’ Plagron Hydro B β€’ Plagron Hydro Roots Solution parameters: β€’ pH: 5.83 β€’ EC: 1.26 mS/cm β€’ Water temperature: 23.1Β°C This mild feeding provides everything the young roots need while encouraging rapid colonization of the fresh coco substrate. βΈ» 🌱 Root Development One of my favorite moments this week was checking the root system before transplant. The entire root ball was beautifully colonized with bright white, healthy roots wrapping around every side of the substrate. Exactly what we hope to see. The roots had reached every corner without becoming root-bound, showing excellent vigor and confirming that the timing for transplant was absolutely perfect. Strong roots today build strong flowers tomorrow. βΈ» πŸ‹ Pickled Lemon Haze F1 – Pheno A Even at this early stage, this little lady is already beginning to reveal her personality. Her internodal spacing is compact and symmetrical, producing a balanced structure with broad, healthy leaves reaching confidently toward the light. The stem is thick for her age, showing good structural strength, while new growth is emerging quickly with a vibrant green color that indicates she’s comfortably adapting to her new home. Leaf posture remains open and relaxed throughout the day, another sign that both the environmental conditions and feeding program are right where they should be. Everything about this plant suggests a smooth, stress-free start. βΈ» Looking Ahead Now that the transplant is complete, the focus shifts entirely toward root expansion. Over the coming days, I expect the roots to begin exploring the entire Plagron Premium Coco Grow Bag, setting the foundation for vigorous vegetative growth before training begins later in the cycle. The stronger the underground development today, the stronger the canopy will become in the weeks ahead. βΈ» Final Thoughts Every project starts with small plants and big dreams. Watching a healthy seedling settle into her final home is always one of the most satisfying moments of any grow. It’s the stage where patience matters most, because the work invested now will determine everything that follows. Pickled Lemon Haze F1 – Pheno A has made an excellent start, and I’m excited to see how her individual character develops as this journey continues. βΈ» πŸ™ Thank You A huge thank you to Zamnesia for the incredible genetics and for providing the complete ecosystem that makes this project possible. Special thanks to Plagron for supplying the Premium Coco Grow Bags and the Hydro nutrient line that will feed these ladies from start to finish. And finally, thank you to the amazing GrowDiaries community. Your encouragement, advice, and shared passion make every grow even more rewarding. I hope you’ll enjoy following this journey as much as I enjoy documenting it. Growers Love and see you all in the next update! πŸŒ±πŸ’™

DogDoctorOfficial πŸ₯’ Project Blue Tent – Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Plant A Week 3 – A Change of Direction Hello everyone, and welcome back to another week of Project Blue Tent! πŸ’™πŸŒ± This diary follows one individual Pickle Lemon Haze F1 from Zamnesia, grown completely independently from its siblings so we can appreciate each plant’s unique development from seed to harvest. The goal of this project remains the same: growing multiple genetics side by side under identical environmental conditions while documenting how each cultivar expresses itself. Every plant shares the same home, the same feeding schedule, the same lighting, and the same care, allowing genetics to tell their own story. This week certainly kept me busy. Just after the reservoir refill, a small irrigation incident turned into an unexpected flood inside the tent. Thankfully, because everything is built around the Zamnesia ecosystem, the water never escaped the tent itself. The tray contained every drop, preventing what could have become a much bigger disaster. After drying everything thoroughly, checking every dripper, and making sure the substrate was still in perfect condition, it was business as usual. The plants barely seemed to notice anything had happened. But while nature stayed calm… I decided to interfere. This week marked the beginning of this plant’s training journey with its very first topping. βΈ» Environment Conditions remained extremely stable throughout the week. β€’ 🌑️ Day temperature: 27Β°C β€’ πŸŒ™ Night temperature: 25Β°C β€’ πŸ’§ Relative humidity: 67% β€’ πŸ₯₯ Root zone temperature: 24Β°C β€’ πŸ’¦ Nutrient solution: 18Β°C β€’ ⚑ EC: 1.61 mS/cm β€’ pH: 5.8 β€’ πŸ’¨ COβ‚‚: Ambient (~450 ppm) β€’ β˜€οΈ Light schedule: 18/6 Nutrient strength was increased slightly to match the plants’ accelerating vegetative growth. The Pickle Lemon Haze accepted the stronger feed without showing any signs of stress or nutrient burn, indicating that the roots are becoming well established inside the Plagron Premium Growbag. βΈ» The Genetics Continue to Impress One thing that immediately stands out with this phenotype is its beautiful structure. Internodal spacing remains compact while side branches continue to develop evenly. The stem has thickened considerably over the last few days, giving the entire plant a sturdy appearance despite its relatively young age. Like its neighbours in the tent, the foliage continues displaying that lighter shade of green I’ve been seeing across all four plants. Since every genetic is showing exactly the same coloration under identical feeding, environment and irrigation, I believe this is simply how these young plants are expressing themselves rather than indicating any nutritional issue. Growth remains vigorous, leaves are standing proudly toward the light, and fresh growth appears every single day. Exactly what we like to see. βΈ» Time to Top This week I made the decision to top this plant. Unlike low-stress training, topping intentionally removes the plant’s primary growing tip. By doing so, apical dominance is interrupted and the plant redirects its energy into the lateral branches. Instead of producing one dominant central cola, the plant now has the opportunity to develop two equally vigorous main leaders, creating a much wider and more balanced canopy later in life. The cut itself was clean, quick, and performed above the selected node, leaving healthy growth tips ready to take over. Now comes the important part. Topping isn’t about what happens immediately after making the cut. It’s about what happens over the following week. Over the next several days I’ll be watching carefully to see how quickly both new tops begin accelerating. If everything continues as expected, those two branches should soon become the new leaders while the lower side branches also receive increased hormonal signals, creating a much bushier structure. For a project like thisβ€”where every plant is documented individuallyβ€”it’s always fascinating to compare topped plants with untouched ones grown under identical conditions. Sometimes the smallest decisions create the biggest differences by harvest day. βΈ» Recovery The best part? The plant barely reacted. Within a short period, fresh growth had already resumed, and the remaining foliage stayed perfectly turgid without drooping or showing signs of stress. Healthy roots, stable environmental conditions, and consistent irrigation make all the difference when performing high-stress techniques like topping. A healthy plant recovers remarkably quickly. βΈ» Looking Ahead Next week should be exciting. I’ll be watching for the formation of the two new dominant tops while continuing gentle canopy management if necessary. As vegetative growth accelerates, the structure created by this topping will begin revealing itself. This is one of my favourite moments in the growβ€”watching a plant completely change its architecture after a single cut. The foundation is now in place. Everything from here will build upon it. βΈ» Final Thoughts Despite an unexpected flood inside the tent, this week turned into another successful chapter. The environmental parameters remained stable, nutrient uptake continued improving, the plant accepted the stronger feeding schedule without hesitation, and the first topping was completed successfully. Every week these genetics continue giving me more confidence, and I honestly can’t wait to see how this Pickle Lemon Haze F1 develops once both new leaders begin stretching toward the light. The adventure is only getting started. Thank you all so much for following along. Your support, comments, advice, and encouragement make documenting these grows even more rewarding. I truly hope these weekly updates help other growers learn something new while enjoying the journey with me. A huge thank you goes to Zamnesia for the incredible genetics and the complete ecosystem, Plagron for keeping these ladies perfectly fed in coco, and everyone following this diary from around the world. Growers Love and see you all next week! πŸ’šπŸŒ± βΈ» P.S. One final shout-out has to go to the Zamnesia ecosystem itself. As dramatic as the flood looked at first, the Zamnesia tent tray proved exactly why it’s part of the setup. Every drop of water remained safely contained inside the tent, with absolutely nothing leaking onto the floor. What could have turned into a much bigger mess ended up being nothing more than drying the tray, fixing the issue, and carrying on with the grow. Moments like these remind us that great equipment isn’t just about making life easier on the good daysβ€”it’s about saving the day when something unexpected happens. Huge thanks to Zamnesia for designing an ecosystem that’s ready for real-world growing. πŸ’™πŸŒ±

DogDoctorOfficial πŸ₯’ Project Blue Tent – Week 4 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Pheno A (Folder 14A) Hello everyone, and welcome back to another update from Project Blue Tent! πŸ’™πŸŒ± For anyone joining this journey for the first time, this project follows four individual plants, each documented in its own diary from seed to harvest. Although every plant shares the exact same environment, nutrients, lighting, and care, each one is given the opportunity to tell its own unique story and reveal how its genetics express themselves. Today we're catching up with Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Plant A. βΈ» 🌱 Week Four – Recovery and New Beginnings Last week marked an important milestone when Plant A received her very first topping. This week, however, was all about patience. After performing a high-stress training technique, I always prefer giving the plant time to recover before asking anything more of her. Rather than continuing with additional training, I simply let nature do its job while carefully observing how she responded. Sometimes, the best thing a grower can do is... nothing. Looking at her now, it's safe to say she appreciated that decision. The recovery has been outstanding. The two new leading shoots have quickly taken over, growth has remained vigorous throughout the entire plant, and the side branches are now pushing with much greater determination than before. The change in architecture is already becoming obvious, with the canopy beginning to widen naturally as the plant redirects its energy away from a single dominant tip. It's always rewarding to watch such a dramatic transformation from one small cut. βΈ» 🌑️ Environmental Conditions Consistency continues to be one of the biggest priorities inside Project Blue Tent. Stable environmental conditions allow the plants to recover quickly from training while encouraging continuous vegetative growth. Average conditions this week were: β€’ 🌑️ Day temperature: 27Β°C β€’ πŸŒ™ Night temperature: 25Β°C β€’ πŸ’§ Relative humidity: 67% β€’ πŸ₯₯ Root zone temperature: 24Β°C β€’ πŸ’¦ Nutrient solution: 18Β°C β€’ βš—οΈ pH: 5.8 β€’ ⚑ EC: 1.88 mS/cm β€’ πŸ’¨ COβ‚‚: approximately 450 ppm β€’ πŸ’‘ Light schedule: 18/6 With the Phytonaut LED providing an even spread across the canopy, the plants continue receiving all the energy they need while maintaining compact internodal spacing and healthy vegetative growth. βΈ» πŸ₯₯ Feeding Adjustments As mentioned in the previous updates, all four plants developed a slightly lighter shade of green during the last couple of weeks. Although their posture remained excellent and growth never slowed down, I felt they were asking for just a little more nutrition. Rather than waiting for deficiencies to appear, I increased the base feeding slightly. Current nutrition now consists of: β€’ Plagron Hydro A β€” 1.8 ml/L β€’ Plagron Hydro B β€” 1.8 ml/L β€’ Plagron Hydro Roots β€” 1 ml/L By the end of this week I was already beginning to notice a richer, healthier green returning to the newest foliage across the entire tent, suggesting the adjustment was exactly what the plants were asking for. One of the things I'm really enjoying about growing in coco is how quickly the plants respond to small, measured changes. βΈ» 🌿 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Plant A This phenotype continues to impress me every single week. The recovery after topping has been remarkably smooth, and it's already clear that the plant has shifted into a completely different growth pattern. The two new main leaders are developing beautifully, while the lower branches are accelerating as they receive more energy than they would have under normal apical dominance. Instead of growing upward through one dominant stem, the plant is now beginning to spread outward, creating the broad, balanced framework I'm hoping to build before introducing the SCROG later in the grow. The stems continue to thicken nicely, the internodal spacing remains tight, and the foliage has maintained excellent posture throughout the week. Although she's still carrying that slightly lighter shade of green, the improvement in colour over the last few days is already noticeable, and her overall posture tells the real story. Leaves are praying toward the light. Growth is continuous. The plant simply looks happy. βΈ» πŸ” Looking Ahead Next week should be another exciting step forward. With the topping now fully recovered, I expect both new leaders to begin stretching more aggressively while the side branches continue filling out the canopy. For now, I'll continue allowing the plant to develop naturally, avoiding unnecessary stress and simply monitoring her structure as she prepares for the next stage of vegetative growth. Every week these genetics reveal a little more of their personality, and Plant A is becoming exactly the kind of bushy, well-balanced plant I was hoping to create. βΈ» πŸ’™ Thank You A huge thank you goes to Zamnesia for making Project Blue Tent possible, from these fantastic Pickle Lemon Haze F1 genetics to the complete ecosystem surrounding this grow. A sincere thank you as well to Plagron for providing the Premium Coco Growbags together with the Hydro nutrient line that continues supporting healthy growth every step of the way. Thank you to GrowDiaries for providing a place where growers from around the world can document their journeys, share experiences, and continue learning from one another. And finally, thank you to everyone following along. Whether you've been here since germination, recently discovered these diaries, leave comments every week, quietly follow in the background, or simply enjoy watching these ladies grow, your support genuinely means a lot. Project Blue Tent is about sharing the complete journeyβ€”the successes, the lessons, the experiments, and everything in between. I hope you're all having an amazing week, and I look forward to seeing you again in the next update as these beautiful ladies continue their adventure. Until next time... Growers Love, happy growing, and take care everyone! πŸŒ±πŸ’™
