Hello to everyone! I will grow Sweet Purple by Paradise Seeds. I will use the next: - HID 400W Sylvania Grolux + cool tube 150mm + handmade reflector + forced blowing by 140 mm computer cooler - Compressor Sera 550 R + - Fan TD-350 Silent + carbon handmade filter - The tank 2x25l (tank capacity 18lx2) - Airflow: 2x140mm 12v computer coolers - Substrate: vermiculite + treated expanded clay in the pot of my own design. - PH 5,5-5,8; Temperature 21-24 / 24-25 - Fertilizer: GHE Flora Nova Grow / Flora nova Bloom / Bio Bud / Sub Culture The design of the pot came to me after reading this site and after the death of the first two sprouts which germinated on cotton + keramzit. Small pot is the usual pot for hydro has diameter 8 cm, big pot is a plastic pot from Flower shop, has diameter 12cm, it's with drilled holes in the bottom and sides The second day: Hi! I grew two seeds, soaked them in the water with “epin” for 4 hours. The result is 100%. They have grown in wool cube in the pack on the battery after 36 hours. After they were moved (together with wool) in the pot with expanded clay. But unfortunately, they have died. I think because of big size of expanded clay. The second time – I soaked in the water with “epin” for 4 hours, grew in the wool – the seeds have grown up. I pour twice a day with 150 ml of water, ph 5.6, lighting schedule is 18/6 I switched on DWC, one tank has bursted (a crack in the bottom). 😊 I've bought new tank The 7th day: Hi! Girls are 7 days old. Compressors moisten the pot as much as half, the distance from the water to the bottom is 2 cm. Compressor has 4 channels. There are two fifteen centimeter stone under each pot.

The 12th day: Hello! The concentration of GHE Flora Nova Grow is 3 ml/10l. Ph is wildly unstable, I think because of stones, vermiculite, expanded clay… During daylight hours it increases from 5.5 to 6.0. While I can not understand😟 The 14th day: Hello! I understood why ph was unstable. The reason was algae. The solution temperature is 22-26, and probably somewhere light penetrates into the tank. I do: - Complete replacement of solution, - 10 ml of peroxide to each tank, - the concentration of the nutrients in new solution is 30% of the recommended. I made the first pruning. Leaf margins of both plants began to turn yellow.

The 17th day: Hi, everyone! Three days ago roots appeared, I made FIMing and increased the concentration of the solution to 6 ml / 10l. The result is brown spots on the leaves, the plant fell down, I found the support using a toothpick. The burn is excluded, the distance to the lamp is 80 cm. I’ve poured of the half of the solution, and filled of clean water. Anyway I don’t like its view. What's wrong with it? The 19th day: Hi! Thanks to everyone! After replacing the solution ( 30%) and washing the tanks the plant has come alive and started to grow fast. The second plant is the same. The 20th day: The second defoliation. The solution concentration is 66% of the recommended by the manufacturer, pH 5.7. Ordered tds-meter is already the 8th day at a customs (according to the tracking) 😎. Special thanks to those who support! Without your help the plant would not have flaunted in the photo 😊

Hello! I stretched stems of large plant, little plant has constant stress 😟. I do not know why, I tried to fill clean water for a couple of days - it does not help. PH 5.7, 800 ppm, water: ½ Osmosis + ½ clean water. I use wet rags on the covers of the tanks to increase the humidity in the box. Maybe I do something wrong?

Hi! The little plant is recovering, but the lock of salts is huge brake for growth. Its leaves look more like a Sativa than Indica. The big plant grows fast, eats water to 2 liters per day.

Hi! When I was changing the solution, I disconnected the tanks and found algae again. Poured into the tanks subculture, the large plant's ppm is 1150 and the small plant's ppm is at 800, pH 5.5. The big plant drinks 3 liters daily, height is 38 cm, the density is inside the stems - it is impossible to see anything. The hairs on the top of the big plant began to appear. I spray Bio Bud 3-4 times a day. Now I understand that if the little plant grow fast, there will not be place for both in locker.

Hi! The big plant grows almost in front of the eyes and takes most half of the boxing. The hairs appeared in abutting leaves to the stem, I didn’t notice the forming cones at the tops. Height of the big plant is 58cm. The little plant has progressed in growth significantly. Unfortunately, the big plant has already begun to obscure the little. So I need to do something wise with additional lighting using ESL. I raised the lamp higher on 15cm at the past week. 1100-1200 is ppm of the big plant, 850/900 is ppm of the small. Ph is 5.5-5.65. Lamps' ventilation is independent, it excludes the motion of odor from the box bypassing the filter. Today I inspected cooltube and wiped the outside of it from the Biobad’s salts (they appeared during spraying). I discovered th dust inside the cooltube which blocks light. I had to disassembled and carefully wipe cooltube inside. To stop appearing a dust in cooltube I hung up a piece of gauze (on the passive blowing in). By the way, dear guru, I’ve the question! Two air channels are not used, and more specifically, 275 liters per hour. The pump has 4 channels, 2 channel for each tank. If I’ll use 4 channel for tank working volume of 18 liters, will plant feel ok?

The 72d day: Hi! I had to leave home and plant for a couple of days. My bro came to me and watered it. I moved the lamp higher on 10 cm, and after coming back I found that cole grew up with beautiful cone, which decided to be central and almost reached the cooltube. The height of the central cola is 78cm, for growth is about 30cm. So I decided to do ScrOG. God knows how it wants to grow up yet, but it is critical. In general, according to breeder’s description, this strain is for outdoor growing, a height can be 2.5 meters. So I decided to play it safe. I made the mesh at a height of 69 cm, folded the central cola. A couple of side branches are almost under the mesh. Yesterday I put the rest 2 channels to the tank, the plant liked it. It drinks about 3 liter in a day. I continue to use Flora Nova Grow in the solution and spray with BioBu. Ppm is 1000-1200 (in the solution), pH is 5.5 – 5.6. Temperature is 24-26 degrees at the network level. The 74th day: Hello! According the advice of a respected friend, I pulled a few side colas to the side. I pulled it not much because of the fear of breaking. It gives maximum 15-20% of additional light in the middle by my subjective opinion.

Th 80th day: Hi! 😃 The cones have increased. A lot of sprouts have appeared (about 15-20) from the bottom of plant. Watching them for 4 days – I see that leaves are barely green and small, there are not enough light , but I haven’t opportunity to hang extra lighting ESL. So I cut them to safe cones. I switched off the battery. I was happy at first, but then temperature of the solution became 17C, and temperature in the box without light – 16. The plant began to drink less, but looked normal. So I switched on the battery. Nutrients are the same. FloraNova is cool. No troubles with ph. It’s constantly 5.5-5.55. But I think I can’t change the solution again, because I have not access to to the tank due ScrOG. I keep ppm, water it every 3-4 days with solution to 1100-1200. I have no troubles with the plant, the smell of solution is normal. 👌 The 82d day: Hi! Two days ago I added 15 ml of BioBud to the tank. Today ph is 4.2, ppm is 980. The plant ate nitrogen and phosphorus, stress from high humidity and coolness have played the role too. The temperature of the solution is 17.4 in the morning. I added 10 ml of Flora Nova Grow per 2l of warm ( +35C) water for stabilization of temperature and for feeding. At the result the temperature increased to 18.5, ppm is 1100, ph is 4.9. Unfortunately I haven't alkalis. I’ll be waiting about 5-6 hours, then will add 1l of tap water. I tied the leaves - where I could reach. There are real wood within the plant - there more light now. Thank you very much, my friends😊 The 84th day: Hi! I took off the grid, it seems the explosive growth has been stopped. I had to cut a couple grid cells, because cones did not pass back - was afraid of damage. The frame for the grid was left for easy stretching of colas,I stretched them more and tied some leaves. Smell of plants is quite a bit, but the bumps smells have very pleasant resinous aroma, with a hint of something citrus.

Hello!😜 Satta pleases by increasing beautiful cones 😋, The vegetation of flowering colas was finished. It is warmer in the street and in boxing, the plant drinks about 2.5-3 liters of water per day. Periodically I add concentration of ppm by Flora Nova Bloom. I spray 4 times a day - a light shower. I made defoliation again, new shoots from below grow. I tried the taste: with dignity in indica style. But most of all I’m glad due a great form of cones - the roots of sheets are dark blue, probably trichomes will be the same at the time of maturation 😊

Hi! The cones grows in width and in height.💪👌 The plant decreases pH, I increase it with tap water and keep 5.3-5.6. I raised the lamp on 5cm , because big colas grow and go to the light. Spray BioBud 2 times a day. When will I need to finish using it? I’ve read o lot of about it, but I still haven’t found the answer😖

Hi! Dear friends, I need help!😱 I see yellowing progress of leaves . At first I thought it’s normal, but it’s far to the harvest – 3 weeks. I compared the different images and detected a lack of phosphorus... Yesterday I changed the solution completely, now use only Flora Nova Bloom. Maybe someone else will tell me? The 104th day: Satta made me jittery. Leaves have strongly yellowed and dried after jumps of pH, the plant has lost about 30% of the leaves during 3 days. As I’ve written before, the solution was changed, I've washed the tank and filled Flora Nova Grow. ... Improvement has not come. pH grows on 0.3 units during 12 hours, ppm decreased from 1100 to 1020 - that is mean the plant actively eats anions, phosphorus, sulfur and nitrogen. I regulate the pH in the morning and in the evening, and half an hour ago according the advice of a reputable friend. I added 15 ml of ripen to the solution. Spray Biobud 1 time a day, I think I’ll stop to spray in a couple of weeks before Harvest, because I do not want to smoke chemistry. Next we will look at the dynamics. I shifted the lamp up by 5 cm. The central cola was already near cooltube (15cm). When I changed the solution one little cone was broken, now it is drying on the box 😁. When you look at the plant every day it seems there is no dynamics, but looking at the pictures in the diary – there is 😊

Hi! Leaves continue to turn yellow slowly, but I decided not to think about it. And I slowly manicure them. Clearance is almost gone, the cones prop cooltube. Apparently, it’s too much light ... But nevertheless, they thicken! Today decided to do marco-photo close-up - they are so beautiful 😊. I even feel a great aesthetic pleasure from looking at them 😊. By the way, I tested a little cone at the week, I cut it from the middle. So, I filled the cigarette with about 30% of the tobacco and smoked together with a friend. High slowly came over 15 minutes. It was excellent stable "indica" high, no stone. We remarkably talked, it reminded the communication under MDMA😊. I do not really like Sativa, because it kills me. This cone is the bright representative of indica😏😏 After a half-hour trip we made one more small water pipe and our conversation became more fun. Summing up the trip, I would say – I haven’t felt the full of taste yet. It’s perfect for a good company or for bike race through the woods / parks😊 I added another 15 ml of ripen over the past few days. The temperature of the solution is 19-21, it is 28 C in the box at the level of cones.
