HazeLiebhaber I want to test Fast Versions and have decided on Sweet Seeds seeds.
The seeds were soaked in H2O2 for 6 hours. After that, they went directly into the Root Riots. Now they are in the germination box, which is kept at 24-25°C with a heating mat.
Update: All 3 seeds have been taken out of the Root Riots after just over 48 hours. I have moved them to the larger germination box and turned on my AC Infinity lamp. It is currently running at 30% on a 18/6 schedule.
RLF: 70-85%
Temp: 32°C, but I can't change that. It will definitely go down in the next few days, as it is supposed to get cooler outside from now on.

HazeLiebhaber The little ones have arrived well in their final pots. Before potting, I dusted the visible roots with the Hubey MT Mix. I also mixed in the Soil Booster from Biochar+ into the soil. I increased the intensity of the lamp from 30 to 40%. Don't be surprised that there are 4 plants in the tent. My partner is also getting high 😄

HazeLiebhaber Everything is going well in the tent. Cheese is clearly outperforming the others.
Cheese and Gorilla Girl have been watered 2x with 100ml, and the MandarineZ has been watered once since transplanting. I've increased the Hesi Root Complex dosage from 50% to 100%.
This time, instead of just using LST, I want to grow with topping again. I think the first one will be ready for that in the next few days.

HazeLiebhaber The water demand has drastically increased.
MandarineZ and Cheese are getting 500ml per day, and Gorilla Girl 500ml every 2-3 days.
MandarineZ and Cheese were topped again.
This weekend, I will initiate the flowering.

HazeLiebhaber Flowering Day 1
The plants are now about 5 weeks old.
The temperatures have dropped a bit. This has also reduced the water needs of the plants.
MandarineZ and Cheese are now getting 500ml every 2-3 days. Gorilla Girl every 3-4 days.
MandarineZ's nutrient needs have decreased. She is now getting 20% of the recommended fertilizer amount, down from 30%.
Cheese looks like her nutrient needs have increased. She will get 70% of the recommended fertilizer amount at the next watering, previously 50%.
With Gorilla Girl, everything is the same as last week.
I will tackle lollipopping and defoliation already after the first week of flowering this time, as I don't know how the Fast Flowering Strains behave during flowering. I assume they either start producing flowers earlier or finish faster than regular Photo Strains. I'll see which one it is 😄

HazeLiebhaber Flower Day 7
I switched to Hesi Bloom fertilizer and also added Hesi Boost the first time I watered.
Cheese and MandarineZ get 0.5L every 2 days and Gorilla Girl every 2-3 days.
Cheese: still 50% of the recommended fertilizer amount.
MandarineZ: 20% of the recommended fertilizer amount.
Gorilla Girl: like Cheese 50% of the recommended fertilizer amount.
Today I will still lollipop and see where I need to adjust the LST training.
Additionally, I rearranged the plants so that they are all at a similar height.
