ATELIER The germination went well, unfortunately, I didn't take any photos.
I followed the planting instructions to the letter by making a small hole down to the first knuckle, then I gave it a bit of a heavy watering on top, but within a day it had a nice root. Because on the second day, at the end of the day, before and after watering, I slightly dug up the top until I could see my seeds, then I gently lifted them up. At that moment, I could really feel a nice root taking hold, and I covered it back very lightly, and the next day it had popped out.
Otherwise, there were 3 beautiful seeds with a 100% success rate. Plus, before placing them point down, I felt they were soft.
I watered twice a day until germination. In the evening, I put down 250 ml of water, and in the morning, much less; I must have been around 100 to 150 ml. So for the first two days up to the 4th or even 5th day, with a pH of 6.86 from bottled mountain spring water bought in a supermarket, the water rested for 24 hours in a bucket. For the last two days, I shared 1L for three plants at about 335 ml each.
To finish, during germination, I took 3 plastic bottles to keep the humidity and heat, and I had to leave them for 4 days after which my plant focused on its first leaves.

ATELIER Bio Bizz advises using their nutrients once the plant has 2 to 4 true leaves, at the beginning of the week on the first day, 1L of water with 4 and 2 mL of Root-Juice, Bio.Heaven, and a pH of 6.10. The watering was divided into three, 335 mL each. I left the plant for 2 days without watering. For the second watering, I prepared the same amount liter by liter for a total of 2L of water with a pH of 6.15, still divided into three, 665 mL each. The last watering after two days without watering was 1 liter each to finish the first week with a pH of 6.15/6.18; it should have been 6.2, but that will come.
The first journal lacks photos and some details, but that will come in a few days; week two will be more complete, detailed day by day.
The pH is measured with a teaspoon by inverting it to pour it into the bottle for drop-by-drop dosing. I don't have a precise amount, but I should be well below 1 mL, always using bottled water, a mineral water. After watering, I always empty one bottle into my bucket and the second one the next day.
Finally, the daytime temperature is not completely at 30 degrees at the plant level or on top; my measuring device is kept to my left on the post. The heat is especially high up. The humidity is at 76% without the extractor; for now, it fluctuates between 44% and 47%, so it’s a bit of a yo-yo.
No. 1: The first one is 7.5 cm with a fine spread; it is in a full pot of All Mix except for the middle where I placed Light Mix to avoid burning my young plant, same for the second one, as advised.
No. 2: The second one is 7 cm, located in the middle of the tent; it likes the lighting and indeed has more volume.
No. 3: The last one is a bit smaller, 6.5 cm; it has a small medium build and is in a full pot of Light Mix.

ATELIER I'll try to pay a little more attention to my photos, not taking them under the light.
Day 15
First day of the second week, I started the main topping, after the cut I watered them with one liter each with 2ml of Bio Grow, Bio Heaven, the pH was adjusted to 6.22.
I will have to catch up on my main topping on the first plant, I didn't feel like touching it today, but I went back anyway and after a few hours the one in the middle is still doing well, plus the two small leaves are preparing another one between the two small leaves at the top and the same for the one at the bottom.
I haven't mentioned the smell, but there's a nice scent in the tent, it's still pleasant for now.
No. 1 The first one at 7.5cm has lost 2cm since the main topping, it’s now only 5.5cm.
No. 2 The second one at 7cm ended up at 5cm since it’s in the middle of the tent, it likes the light, so I decided to leave the one below it.
No. 3 The last one a bit smaller, 6.5cm, it maintains a small medium body, it’s now only 4.5cm, main topping complete.
Day 17
Watering 1L each and still with 2ml/l of Bio Grow, Bio Heaven, the pH was adjusted to 6.22.
I also started LST with makeshift means, I'm still thinking about the placement of my pots to improve the growth on the right and left.
I slightly increased my extractor, there's a nice smell, the scent is a bit lighter, it remains normal, it smells good 😎👌😍 Happy!
No. 1 It's evolving well, beginning of LST, a lack of light is visible.
No. 2 It still loves the light, beginning of LST.
No. 3 It's evolving well, beginning of LST, a lack of light is visible.
Day 18
The LST is struggling to hold with makeshift means, I will try something else, the response will come in the days ahead.
The 3 plants maintain good growth, the best one is still benefiting.
Day 19
The LST has been redone properly with other materials and holds better than the old one. By the end of week 2 or the beginning of week 3, I might be able to proceed with the next LST, following a pH error the plants are evolving well and the tips have pointed their noses quite well, but it remains a lower pH error since I prepare my watering at the last minute, I should have aimed for 6.2 for the first, 6.25 for the second, and 6.29 for the last watering, but after 2 hours the pH was at 5.98, so since the beginning of week one I haven’t been within the recommended levels.
A very small defoliation has been done, including the ones on the right and left where I removed their first two leaves that were still on the stem, and for the middle one, I removed two leaves from the first two branches at the bottom that were curving upwards and the two small ones on the stem as well.
Another defoliation will come in the days ahead, I will remove their large leaves from their first week and maybe the future stems that will be under the main branch.
A better humidity level has appeared, from 54% to 55% for the night and from 64% to 65% for the day.
Day 21
The pH should be adjusted to the millimeter in a few days, then I proceeded with the continuation of the LST and a small defoliation, I won’t leave any branches underneath, only on top and the sides, their first two leaves from below have been removed, another defoliation is still to come for the leaves above and below including the future branches below that will take shape.
The watering has gone up to 1.335L still with 2ml/L of Bio Grow, Bio Heaven.
That's it for the end of week two.
Let me know in the comments if you would change anything about the placement of the pots and the lamp, if anyone has already made changes to their setup, or if you have anything else to mention or say, thanks.
Just to make sure your light is on full power. If you can add a dehumidifier to the room as 85% is very high, you want to be around 50%rh in mid to late flower. 👍🌱
ATELIER Day-22
Start of the third week for the 3 plants, I will continue the LST with some light defoliation.
Defoliation done, I expect the next LST with maybe some leaf removal or a future branch that will be under the canopy.
Watering of 1.335L with 2Ml/L of Bio Heaven and Bio Grow, pH adjusted to 6.15, for the next watering it should be around 6.2/6.28.
Day-23
Another defoliation planned with LST before watering, the amount of water will go up to 1.5L for a few days, their growth is pretty good so I think I can afford it.
Day-24
I continue with the LST and the small defoliations, watering went well at 1.5L, with an unstable pH of 6.25/29 this time, it can be found in a range of 6.15/19. After each LST or small defoliation, the plants bounce back into pretty rapid growth even though I’m right next to them.
Day-25
The middle plant is stunning, I think that with two Spider Farmers along the length and four pots, the plants could be quite nice and enjoyable during their growth, to finish with the flowering 👌😎😍

Continuing with LST and defoliation, it should be a little more than halfway through the growth phase, still about twenty days before flowering, fingers crossed.
Day-29
Continuing with LST and defoliation for the next few days, watering will be 2L with 2 Ml/L of Bio.Heaven, Bio-Grow.
Day-30
Continuing with LST and defoliation, watering 2L each, for the first and last one a surplus of water ended up in the saucer, but in one day it emptied, and the middle one had a little surplus drank the same evening.
Day-34
End of LST, still some small-scale defoliation.
Beginning of flowering, the first pistils appear, watering 2L with 2 Ml/L of Bio.Heaven, Bio-Grow + 1Ml/L of Bio Bloom and Top Max.

Beginning of flowering, the first pistils have appeared and continue to appear slowly, I will do some more defoliation. 🌹👌😎
Day-39
I removed all the wooden stakes to place my net, still doing some small defoliations to keep the light on top of the canopy.
They are still growing quickly, in one to two weeks the first flowers should appear, I just have to support the plants with my net. 🌹👌😎
The pH is regulated with each watering, I just need to control the humidity without a dehumidifier, the temperature is gradually rising to 28.2 at the end of the cycle and averages around 24.5 / 25.5, humidity remains stable at about 77% to 83%, at night it drops to around 79% to 70%, I haven't opened a vent yet and the extractor is at 50% of its rotation, set to 27°C.
I will take care of it at the first appearance of flowers.
Day-41
Defoliation between the stems and inside, nothing more to report at the end of week 5.

I gave the plants about 15 days to show several pistils, the formation is quite pronounced for each plant 🌹🌹👌😎
I will adjust the growing conditions soon, the extractor is at 100% of its extraction and a ventilation grid is open.
I’m adjusting the pH to 6.36, about 9 to 10 drops of pH.
Watering will be 2.5L for the first and third, the second will stay at 3L for now, we'll see about moving it to 3.5L in a few days, a good defoliation has been done, the biggest leaves have been removed.
🌹🌹👌😎
Day-51
The overall look of the plants after yesterday's defoliation, there’s not much left to remove, the photos aren’t great, I’ll try to improve them. 🌹🌹👌😎
Day-53
The flowers are growing and the stems are getting taller, the plants are taking their time but they continue to grow and progress, I will also need to find a dehumidifier quickly to bring the humidity down to at least 30%, the temperature is holding well at 26°C during the day and 22° to 23°C at night with excessive humidity of 88% to 91%
Watering has gone to 2.5L for the plants on the sides, the one in the middle will stay at 3L until the end of the week and will go to 3.5L at the beginning of week 8 with a pH that will go to 6.4 for 15 days.
I will switch to one defoliation per week, the next one will also be at the beginning of week 8. 🌹🌹👌😎
Day-56
I don’t think I’ll take any shots to show the inside of the plants, their centers or branches for now, I’ll stick to simple shots, but I can always describe it if anyone wants to interact.
That’s it for week 7, happy with the progress of my plants. 🌹🌹👌😎

A heavy defoliation was done on the first one, a light one on the second, and an even lighter one on the last. 🌹🌹😎👌
Still 8L of solution, pH stabilized at 6.43, I still need to adjust the humidity, and I will also lower the temperature to about 25°C 🌹🌹😎👌
Day-59
The terpenes have made their appearance for a few days now, and the flowering is progressing slowly. 🌹🌹😎👌
Day-61
Defoliation of the week for the 3 plants, pH stable at 6.47 🌹🌹😎👌

As you can see, I have 3 different flowering stages, one more compact and a smaller plant, the second one larger with big buds, a bit chunky, and the last plant is as big as the second, with thinner buds that all come to a point. 🌹🌹👌😎😃
The next waterings will be 3L with a dosage of 4 ml/l of bio-grow, bio-bloom / top-max and 5 ml/l of bio-heaven, with pH up that should be around a dosage of 15ml to 20ml 🌹🌹👌😎
Maybe a little defoliation coming up, I should remove the largest and most obstructive leaves to maintain good light penetration, the lamp is about 30 cm to 45 cm away 🌹🌹👌😎
Day-74
The buds continue to swell, still going smoothly. 🌹🌹👌😎😃
In response to a comment, I have a dehumidifier that pulls 300ml per day and my measuring device always shows the same amount of humidity every day, I don't have much means to see the difference in humidity levels, except for the possibility of adding a big fan, but for now I'm missing a power strip, we'll see in the coming days or for week 11 🌹🌹👌😎😃

Second to last week of flowering and in these last days, ready to tackle their final week of flowering 👌🌹🌹😎
No issues to report, except for the humidity level; I continue to air out my plants before night, aiming for a resting temperature of 18/19°C with a humidity level of 44 to 55% 👌🌹🌹😎
Additionally, with these low and cold temperatures, the green tips are turning a violet, not dark and not too light 👌🌹🌹😎
Happy first grow to you! 😉 I also grow a Glue Gelato auto, I wish you everything goes well! Btw, nice training technique and your plants have healthy area 👌 💪
