👉Day 1: 3x Elephant Purple from Strawberry Fields - Pueblo North 3x Scoops from The Spot 420 - Pueblo West Treated with SNS 203 by spraying the foliage and wet the soil. Fed 500ml (6.5 PH) each Lights at 40% (180w) @ 3' Temp: Avg 78 High 81 Low 70 Hum: Avg 59 High 75 Low 37 👉Day 2: Treated with SNS 203 again EP1 looks slightly deficient (received in this state), EP2 and EP3 have the same deficiency but less so. Possibly nitrogen or iron, can't tell for sure. SCP1, SCP2, and SCP3, all have heat damage (cupping, curling, sawtooth) but also received in this state, keeping a close eye to make sure it's not progressing. Removed a few of the worst leaves. Inspected several leaves under microscope, no pests seen. Lights at 50% (225w) @ 3' Temp: Avg 77 High 80 Low 74 Hum: Avg 62 High 68 Low 42 👉Day 3: 2 of the scoops have curled leaves, not sure the cause, lights are only 50% power and 3 ft above the plants, and temps haven't passed 77F (25c) I moved the lower fan up in case it's wind burn. I set the max temp to 75F (24 c) in case it's heat burn. Fed 500ml (6.7 PH) to the Elephant Purple, but left the Scoops as they still felt wet about an inch under the soil Lights at 50% (225w) @ 3' Temp: Avg 76 High 78 Low 72 Hum: Avg 55 High 64 Low 40 👉Day 4: Determined with the help of other growers, curling is most likely due to pesticide combined with too much airflow. The curling looks no better or worse than yesterday. Moved light down to 2'. Fed 500ml (6.7 PH) each to the Scoops Lights at 50% (225w) @ 2' Temp: Avg 76 High 79 Low 73 Hum: Avg 57 High 64 Low 39 👉Day 5: Topped all plants. It was kinda dumb doing it to SCP1 since it's so tiny, but my plan is to eventually cut the two worst plants so I have 4 each getting their own 2'x2' space. No watering, EPs will need it tomorrow. SPC3 and EP1 look a little nitrogen deficient but not much, going to add in pure blend pro grow and rhizo blast into the next feeding tomorrow. Lights at 50% (225w) @ 2' Curling still not worse, all plants seem fine with the light at 2' might go up to 60% after next feeding. Temp: Avg 78 High 79 Low 78 Hum: Avg 53 High 63 Low 46 👉Day 6: Everything looks good except for SCP1 which like maybe potassium deficient, but could possibly be just a progression of the previous issue as it has new growth which looks fine. Added nutes so mix is now: Silica Blast 2.5 ml/g Liquid Karma 5 ml/g Cal-Mag 3 ml/g Pure Blend Pro Grow 7 ml/g Rizo Blast 1 ml/g PH 6.5 EC 1.17 Fed 250 ml to each SCPs Fed 500 ml to each EP Lights at 60% (270w) @ 2' Dialing up the light slightly to 60% Temp: Avg 75 High 78 Low 71 Hum: Avg 58 High 63 Low 44 👉Day 7: Seeing new growth on all plants since topping, I think the stronger nutes have helped. Cleaned up all damaged leaves. No feeding. Lights at 60% (270w) @ 2' Humidifier ran out which caused lower than normal humidity, thankfully I had another in my lung room or it would have hit 30s. Temp: Avg 77 High 80 Low 73 Hum: Avg 52 High 63 Low 39 👉End of week stats: Been a crazy week, learned a lot about clones, next time I will get clones from the same company as I believe the EPs are older than the SCPs by about a week. Also how uneven the nodes are. 8.25 liters fed SCPs 3.75 l EP 4.5 l Temp: Avg 77 High 81 Low 70 Hum: Avg 57 High 75 Low 37

Are my pics showing heat burn, wind burn, or over watering? My lights are 3 feet up and at 50% power (within Spider Farmer's recommendation for seedlings) My temps have been an average of 76F (24C) maximum of 77F (25C) minimum 72F (22C) Fed 500ml each 2 days ago

Now that I see u have treated it h could have went to hard with the pesticide. Giving the plant a toxicity. That would definitely make the leaves do some funky shit! I believe too strong spray or too much of it is your culprit.

👉Day 8: Everything is looking good, lots of new growth at the top, and the color has improved on the slightly yellow ones, so definitely a slight deficiency. Keep waiting for these plants to shoot up but it seems they still have some settling in to do, and the topping most likely set them back a little. I'm going to guess 2-4" of growth by the end of week 2, and probably 4-8" again the next, I'm excited. No feeding, but all will probably need it tomorrow. Lights at 60% (270w) @ 2' Temp: Avg 77 High 79 Low 73 Hum: Avg 54 High 63 Low 43 👉Day 9: The SCPs are showing a little tip burn, the EPs look like they could use more. An issue I was worried about raising two strains. I'm going to have to split their water into separate batches. Fed EPs 500 ml @ 6.6 PH Fed SCPs 300 ml watered down to 0.77 EC @ 6.6 PH Lights at 60% (270w) @ 2' Temp: Avg 78 High 80 Low 74 Hum: Avg 55 High 63 Low 43 👉Day 10: The EPs are doing great, EP1 has gained an inch or 2 since topping and EP2 is not far behind. EP1 is also showing (I believe) phosphorus deficiency, I'm going to up it to 1.3 EC for the next feeding. The tip burn on the SCPs doesn't seem to have gotten worse so .77 is right for the moment. Lights at 60% (270w) @ 2' Temp: Avg 78 High 80 Low 73 Hum: Avg 53 High 63 Low 43 👉Day 11: The EPs are continuing to thrive. I topped them again, didn't top the SCPs so they can catch up a little. Lights at 60% (270w) @ 2' Temp: Avg 78 High 81 Low 73 Hum: Avg 54 High 64 Low 47 👉Day 12: EPs are looking slightly deficient, SCPs are looking about the same. Fed SCPs 400 ml of 1.12 at 6.7 PH Fed EPs 500 ml of 1.43 at 6.5 PH Felt the EPs could use more light, hopefully it won't be too much for the SCPs Lights at 70% (270w) @ 2' To compensate for the extra light, turned the max speed of the fan to 8 Temp: Avg 77 High 81 Low 71 Hum: Avg 56 High 64 Low 46 👉Day 13: A little more tip burn on the SCPs but not terrible, I'm hoping they just grow into it. The EPs are getting bushier and taller. Lights at 70% (270w) @ 2' Turned the fan down to a max of 7 as 8 can cause reverberation of the tent, not sure how I'm going to keep up with the lights at 100% during the summer... Temp: Avg 78 High 81 Low 73 Hum: Avg 55 High 63 Low 44 👉Day 14: All of them are doing great, tons of new growth on the EPs. The SCPs aren't showing any more tip burn which is wonderful. Lights at 70% (270w) @ 2' Temp: Avg 78 High 81 Low 73 Hum: Avg 54 High 63 Low 44

👉Day 15: All the plants are doing great, they gained about 2 inches last week, I'm guessing 4 more this week. Fed SCPs till it flowed out the bottom of 1.0 EC at 6.5 PH ----Runoff 4.46 EC at 5.6 PH Fed EPs till it flowed out the bottom of 1.43 at 6.5 PH ----Runoff 5.29 EC at 5.7 PH Lights at 70% (315w) @ 2' Temp: Avg 78 High 80 Low 73 Hum: Avg 54 High 64 Low 43 👉Day 16: Biggest SCP is up to 8" biggest EP is up to 9", and everything is looking great. Lights at 70% (315w) @ 2' Temp: Avg 78 High 80 Low 72 Hum: Avg 55 High 64 Low 44 👉Day 17: I'll need to repot soon, the EPs were almost dry already even after being fed to overflow last time. Fed all EPs 750 ml of 1.44 EC at 6.6 PH Fed SCP3 (the biggest) 500 ml of 1.44 EC at 6.6 PH Lights at 70% (315w) @ 2' Temp: Avg 77 High 81 Low 72 Hum: Avg 56 High 64 Low 43 👉Day 18: One of the EPs seems to be having phosphorus deficiency, I'm hoping the next batch will help tomorrow. Lights at 70% (315w) @ 2' Temp: Avg 77 High 82 Low 69 Hum: Avg 58 High 79 Low 40 👉Day 19: More of what I think is phosphorus deficiency visible on the EPs. Removed SCP1 the smallest from the tent, I still have to decide to keep 2 SCPs or go with 1 SCP and 3 EP, the yield I'm sure is going to be less on the SCPs. New mix: Silica Blast: 3ml/g Liquid Karma 7ml/g Cal-mag 5ml/g Pure Blend Pro Grow 9ml/g Rizo Blast 2ml/g PH 6.4 EC 1.43 Fed the EPs 500ml of the new mix each. Lights at 70% (315w) @ 2' Very low outdoor temps causing indoor heat drops especially during dark hours and humidity spikes which triggers the cloudline max humidity setting causing even lower temps. Keeping the lung room warmer seems to have sorted it. Temp: Avg 78 High 81 Low 74 Hum: Avg 60 High 74 Low 46 👉Day 20: SCPs are looking a little sad, some brown spotting on one as well, I think I put off watering a bit too long, we'll see how they look tomorrow after feeding. I think the EPs are doing better under this new mix but hard to say for sure. Fed the SCPs 500ml of the new mix each. Lights at 70% (315w) @ 2' Temp: Avg 79 High 81 Low 74 Hum: Avg 58 High 69 Low 48 👉Day 21: Some more yellowing, whatever deficiency/excess is happening is progressing, I think I should flush but as I'm about to repot, not sure if it should be before or after. Fed the EPs 500ml of the new mix each. Lights at 70% (315w) @ 2' The cloudline wasn't running today despite flashing high temp, hope that's just a fluke and not a defective unit. Turning the control unit off and on again seemed to do it. Another humidity/temp runaway happened during night hours again. Temp: Avg 79 High 86 Low 69 Hum: Avg 61 High 77 Low 46

👉Day 22: Did a flush of 1 gallon per plant, runoff was about 5.5-5.7 PH. Will repot as soon as they are dry. Lights at 70% (315w) @ 2' Temp: Avg 79 High 85 Low 74 Hum: Avg 63 High 75 Low 47 👉Day 23: The EPs seem to be doing great after the flush, We'll have to see if it helps SCP3 with the brown spotting. The EPs are about 11 inches now. Lights at 70% (315w) @ 2' Temp: Avg 78 High 81 Low 74 Hum: Avg 59 High 70 Low 48 👉Day 24: As far as I can see things are still looking better. Repotted all plants into 5 gallon cloth pots, picked up Enzyme Komplete to help with the the suspected nutrient lockout issue. Week 4 Mix: Silica Blast 3ml/g Liquid Karma 7ml/g Cal-Mag 5ml/g Pure Blend Pro Grow 10 ml/g Rhizo Blast 2ml/g Enzyme Komplete 8ml/g PH 6.4 EC 1.71 Fed through EPs Fed SCPs about 1/2 gal each as they were still fairly moist during repot. Lights at 70% (315w) @ 2' Added another Cloudline (slaved to the output) to help with airflow. Temp: Avg 78 High 81 Low 70 Hum: Avg 59 High 72 Low 49 👉Day 25: Overall things are good, but seeing some darkish spots forming on the EPs, Seems to point to phosphorus deficiency, I'm going to boost their next feeding again to see if that does it. Little bit of cupping on the SCPs, think I'll turn down the lights slightly to see if that helps. Checked a couple of leaves under the microscope, no signs of any pests. Lights at 60% (270w) @ 2' Temp: Avg 78 High 80 Low 74 Hum: Avg 57 High 69 Low 47 👉Day 26: I'm pretty certain that the EPs are phosphorus deficient, my best (uneducated) guess is that they are already in pre-flower, I wonder how long they were for sale in the dispensary. The SCPs are showing some signs of light burn, so I'm backing off the lights slightly. I have a feeling I'll need to flower soon or risk herm for the EPs, this means the SCPs are probably going to be low yield, but you live and learn, buy your clones from the same shop, and ask if they were cloned at the same time. Lights at 50% (225w) @ 2' Starting to really nail the environment, the lack of an arctic cyclone is helping I'm sure. Now within 7 degrees day/night. Temp: Avg 78 High 80 Low 73 Hum: Avg 54 High 62 Low 48 👉Day 27: Some crinkled leaves on the EPs, the progression of phosphorus deficiency, I removed these. The SCPs seems to be doing better with the slightly reduced light. Fed the EPs till runoff about 1gal fed about 15% runoff. Week 4 Day 6 Mix: Silica Blast 3ml/g Liquid Karma 7ml/g Cal-Mag 5ml/g Pure Blend Pro Grow 15 ml/g Rhizo Blast 2ml/g Enzyme Komplete 8ml/g PH 6.4 EC 2.51 Runoff: EP2: EC 4.94 PH 5.5 EP3: EC 5.42 PH 5.5 Lights at 50% (225w) @ 2' Temp: Avg 78 High 81 Low 74 Hum: Avg 53 High 59 Low 48 👉Day 28: Only a couple of crinkled leaves on the EPs, we'll have to watch and see. SCPs seems to be about the same. Fed the SCPs till runoff about 1gal fed about 25% runoff. Week 4 Day 7 Mix: Silica Blast 3ml/g Liquid Karma 7ml/g Cal-Mag 5ml/g Pure Blend Pro Grow 10 ml/g Rhizo Blast 2ml/g Enzyme Komplete 8ml/g PH 6.6 EC 1.94 Runoff: SCP2: EC 4.46 PH 6.3 SCP3: EC 4.37 PH 5.7 Lights at 50% (225w) @ 2' Temp: Avg 78 High 81 Low 74 Hum: Avg 53 High 59 Low 48

👉Day 29: Added the scrog net and defoliated the EPs. Lights at 50% (225w) @ 2' Temp: Avg 77 High 80 Low 71 Hum: Avg 55 High 60 Low 48 👉Day 30: Everything is looking great, no progression of discoloration on the SCPs or the blotches on the EPs. Lights at 50% (225w) @ 2' Temp: Avg 77 High 80 Low 74 Hum: Avg 55 High 61 Low 50 👉Day 31: Things are still looking good, a few cupped leaves on the EPs but only a couple. SCPs look about the same. Fed the EPs till runoff ~1gal each: Silica Blast 3ml/g Liquid Karma 7ml/g Cal-Mag 7ml/g Pure Blend Pro Grow 15 ml/g Rhizo Blast 2ml/g Enzyme Komplete 8ml/g PH 6.6 EC 2.58 Runoff: EP2: EC 5.36 PH 5.6 Lights at 50% (225w) @ 2' Temp: Avg 77 High 80 Low 73 Hum: Avg 54 High 59 Low 49 👉Day 32: The EPs seem to be growing an inch a day especially EP3. Fed the SCPs till runoff ~.75gal each: Silica Blast 3ml/g Liquid Karma 7ml/g Cal-Mag 7ml/g Pure Blend Pro Grow 11 ml/g Rhizo Blast 2ml/g Enzyme Komplete 8ml/g PH 6.5 EC 2.05 Runoff: SCP2: EC 6.00 PH 6.2 SCP3: EC 4.44 PH 5.9 Raised the lights up and turned them up to 70% Lights at 70% (315w) @ 28" The cloudline t6 is starting to die, changed it to manual so it's always running as it seems to be having issues starting. Temp: Avg 78 High 81 Low 73 Hum: Avg 53 High 59 Low 47 👉Day 33: Things are looking good, the SCPs finally reached the trellis, while the EPs I keep having to spread out. Now that things look good and stable, I would say my issues were: 1. Too low ppm on the nutes for the EPs as they are older than I was dosing them (in the dispensary too long). 2. The lights too close on the SCPs, these I'm sure are young plants as they got them in just a day or two before I bought them. Lights at 70% (315w) @ 28" With the fans on constant at speed 5 things seem pretty stable, humidity is taking the biggest stability hit but not bad. Temp: Avg 77 High 81 Low 72 Hum: Avg 56 High 64 Low 47 👉Day 34: Everything still smooth, SCP2 has finally reached the scrog net, the EPs are up to 17" even after the LST of the net. Fed the EPs till runoff ~1 gal each: Silica Blast 3ml/g Liquid Karma 7ml/g Cal-Mag 7ml/g Pure Blend Pro Grow 15 ml/g Rhizo Blast 2ml/g Enzyme Komplete 8ml/g PH 6.6 EC 2.46 Lights at 70% (315w) @ 28" Temp: Avg 78 High 81 Low 73 Hum: Avg 55 High 62 Low 52 👉Day 35: Some cupping and sawtoothing so I reduced the light again to 60%. Defoliated the SCPs. Lights at 60% (270w) @ 28" Temp: Avg 77 High 81 Low 70 Hum: Avg 54 High 65 Low 50

👉Day 36: Flowering! Can't wait any longer to start flowering, as it is I have a feeling it's going to be tight with the EPs. Fed the SCPs till runoff ~.75 gal each: Silica Blast 3ml/g Liquid Karma 7ml/g Cal-Mag 7ml/g Pure Blend Pro Grow 13 ml/g Rhizo Blast 2ml/g Enzyme Komplete 8ml/g PH 6.7 EC 2.21 Lights at 60% (270w) @ 28" Temp: Avg 77 High 80 Low 73 Hum: Avg 55 High 60 Low 51 👉Day 37: Defoliated the EPs a little more and raised the SCPs up a couple inches by putting the old saucers under the new ones. Raised the light up as the canopy had gone up a few inches. Lights at 60% (270w) @ 28" Temp: Avg 75 High 80 Low 71 Hum: Avg 56 High 61 Low 49 👉Day 38: A little spotting on the EPs, going to feed them 50/50 grow/bloom and see if that helps. I'm hoping the boost in phosphorus from the bloom formula will do the trick. Fed the EPs till runoff ~1 gal each: Silica Blast 3ml/g Liquid Karma 7ml/g Cal-Mag 7ml/g Pure Blend Pro Grow 5 ml/g Pure Blend Pro Bloom 5 ml/g Rhizo Blast 2ml/g Enzyme Komplete 8ml/g PH 6.6 EC 1.91 Lights at 60% (270w) @ 28" Temp: Avg 76 High 81 Low 72 Hum: Avg 54 High 61 Low 46 👉Day 39: Nothing much to do but keep spreading the branches under the scrog. Lights at 70% (315w) @ 28" Temp: Avg 75 High 79 Low 70 Hum: Avg 53 High 60 Low 46 👉Day 40: Raised the SCPs up on bigger saucers, now they are almost level with the EPs. Added Sweet Raw to the mix. Fed the SCPs till runoff ~1 gal each: Silica Blast 3ml/g Liquid Karma 7ml/g Cal-Mag 7ml/g Pure Blend Pro Grow 5 ml/g Pure Blend Pro Bloom 5 ml/g Sweet Raw 4 ml/g Rhizo Blast 2ml/g Enzyme Komplete 8ml/g PH 6.6 EC 2.05 Lights at 70% (315w) @ 28" Temp: Avg 76 High 81 Low 71 Hum: Avg 52 High 61 Low 45 👉Day 41: EP3 was looking a little droopy from lack of water. Fed the EPs till runoff ~1 gal each: Silica Blast 3ml/g Liquid Karma 7ml/g Cal-Mag 7ml/g Pure Blend Pro Grow 6 ml/g Pure Blend Pro Bloom 6 ml/g Sweet Raw 4 ml/g Rhizo Blast 2ml/g Enzyme Komplete 8ml/g PH 6.5 EC 2.15 Lights at 70% (315w) @ 28" Temp: Avg 76 High 80 Low 70 Hum: Avg 52 High 58 Low 45 👉Day 42: Better coloring on the EP3 after feeding, much happier now. Lights at 70% (315w) @ 28" Temp: Avg 76 High 81 Low 71 Hum: Avg 53 High 59 Low 47

👉Day 43: I see the lime green of new growth on all plants, the stretch is finally starting. The EPs are spread about to the max, now I just have to hope they stop before they hit the roof. Lights at 70% (315w) @ 28" Temp: Avg 74 High 79 Low 70 Hum: Avg 54 High 60 Low 48 👉Day 44: Some nute burn on the EPs, I think they are getting too much nitrogen so I dropped a little of the grow for bloom.

👉Day 64: Spotting is progressing, leaning toward septoria, defoliated all leaves on EP2 which show the spots. EP3 is bit more yellow. Going to back off the nutes a little next time but bump up the cal-mag. Ordered a dehumidifier to control the night time spike in RH. Lights at 100% (450w) @ 28" Temp: Avg 78 High 83 Low 72 Hum: Avg 48 High 54 Low 42 👉Day 65: Pretty certain of septoria, I found a few other leaves with spotting on SCP3 and a little on SCP2. Defoliated all spotted leaves, defoliated EP3 for light penetration reasons. Added sustee water monitors, turned down lights to 90% as I feel pushing them right now is unwise. I'm hoping keeping the RH lower, changing the air filter, spraying with hydrogen peroxide will all combine to knock this issue out. Lowered the PGP Bloom this feeding but forgot to boost the cal-mag. Fed the EPs and SCPs till runoff ~1 gal each: Silica Blast 3ml/g Liquid Karma 7ml/g Cal-Mag 5ml/g Pure Blend Pro Bloom 8 ml/g Sweet Raw 4 ml/g Rhizo Blast 2ml/g Enzyme Komplete 8ml/g Hydroplex 3 ml/g PH 6.4 EC 2.16 Lights at 90% (405w) @ 28" Temp: Avg 78 High 85 Low 72 Hum: Avg 44 High 53 Low 37 👉Day 66: Clipped a couple of leaves with spotting but I'm pretty sure they were just missed before. Things seem better but more time will tell. Sprayed the soil again with hydrogen peroxide, enough to wet the top layer and got the lower stem and branches as well as the inner rim of the cloth pots. I'm realizing now that the first sign that I missed, or at least didn't' act on was when opening the tent it had a musty smell instead of earthy/chlorophyll. Seems like less of a musty smell today so should be heading in the right direction. Lights at 90% (405w) @ 28" Temp: Avg 77 High 85 Low 71 Hum: Avg 48 High 56 Low 37 👉Day 67: Sprayed a few leaves with hydrogen peroxide and setup the second tier of scrog. Fed the EPs and SCPs till runoff ~1 gal each: Silica Blast 3ml/g Liquid Karma 7ml/g Cal-Mag 7ml/g Pure Blend Pro Bloom 8 ml/g Sweet Raw 3 ml/g Rhizo Blast 2ml/g Enzyme Komplete 8ml/g Hydroplex 2 ml/g PH 6.9 EC 2.41 Lights at 90% (405w) @ 28" Temp: Avg 78 High 82 Low 72 Hum: Avg 46 High 52 Low 39 👉Day 68: Sprayed the leaves that had spotting (about 2-3) with hydrogen peroxide as well as sprayed the soil and pot rim. Lights at 90% (405w) @ 28" Temp: Avg 77 High 83 Low 69 Hum: Avg 51 High 60 Low 39 👉Day 69: Cleaned out a roundup sprayer and filled it with 3% hydrogen peroxide, misted the soil and leaves. Plucked a few more spotted leaves. I don't think I have any chance to properly control the humidity until I get the big dehumidifier in 3 days. Fed the EPs and SCPs till runoff ~1 gal each: Silica Blast 3ml/g Liquid Karma 7ml/g Cal-Mag 7ml/g Pure Blend Pro Bloom 8 ml/g Sweet Raw 3 ml/g Rhizo Blast 2ml/g Enzyme Komplete 8ml/g Hydroplex 2 ml/g PH 6.5 EC 2.20 Lights at 90% (405w) @ 28" Temp: Avg 79 High 85 Low 71 Hum: Avg 49 High 57 Low 43 👉Day 70: Spotting is worse on the leaves that had it already. Misted all plants with 3% hydrogen peroxide and the soil. Now that the outside humidity has dropped hopefully I'll be able to control the tent better by dropping the lung room RH. Lights at 90% (405w) @ 28" Temp: Avg 76 High 82 Low 72 Hum: Avg 49 High 59 Low 40

👉Day 71: The spots are turning white, not sure if that's good, I'm going to carry on spraying the foliage and soil each day and see what happens. I was able to keep RH under 55 and average 42, good progress. Fed the EPs and SCPs till runoff ~1 gal each: Silica Blast 3ml/g Liquid Karma 7ml/g Cal-Mag 5ml/g Pure Blend Pro Bloom 8 ml/g Sweet Raw 4 ml/g Rhizo Blast 2ml/g Enzyme Komplete 8ml/g Hydroplex 3 ml/g PH 6.5 EC 2.20 Lights at 100% (405w) @ 28" Temp: Avg 77 High 82 Low 72 Hum: Avg 42 High 54 Low 32 👉Day 72: More hooking of colas to the trellis with soft ties. Hard to say if the spotting is getting worse, kept the humidity under 52, and sprayed again. Lights at 100% (450w) @ 28" Temp: Avg 75 High 81 Low 70 Hum: Avg 43 High 52 Low 32 👉Day 73: Spraying the pot, before and after feeding as well as the plants after. Fed the EPs and SCPs till runoff ~1 gal each: Silica Blast 3ml/g Liquid Karma 7ml/g Cal-Mag 5ml/g Pure Blend Pro Bloom 8 ml/g Sweet Raw 4 ml/g Rhizo Blast 2ml/g Enzyme Komplete 8ml/g Hydroplex 3 ml/g PH 6.8 EC 2.38 Lights at 100% (450w) @ 24" Temp: Avg 73 High 81 Low 70 Hum: Avg 41 High 45 Low 36 👉Day 74: Definitely not improving, I believe now it's not septoria but rust, either way fungal. Defoliated all leaves I could see with spots after spraying, and sprayed again after. Lowered the lights, to help dry the fungus. Lights at 100% (450w) @ 24" Temp: Avg 72 High 82 Low 69 Hum: Avg 44 High 50 Low 38 👉Day 75: Defoliated again, just going to keep doing the same until the finish, flush is starting in two days so it's a race to the finish. Fed the EPs and SCPs till runoff ~1 gal each: Silica Blast 3ml/g Liquid Karma 7ml/g Cal-Mag 5ml/g Pure Blend Pro Bloom 8 ml/g Sweet Raw 4 ml/g Rhizo Blast 2ml/g Enzyme Komplete 8ml/g Hydroplex 3 ml/g PH 6.7 EC 2.35 Lights at 100% (450w) @ 24" Temp: Avg 74 High 83 Low 71 Hum: Avg 38 High 46 Low 33 👉Day 76: I need something stronger, hydrogen peroxide isn't cutting it, I'll check with the shop tomorrow. Lights at 100% (450w) @ 24" Temp: Avg 76 High 83 Low 67 Hum: Avg 40 High 46 Low 35 👉Day 77: Last feeding, water only from here out. Treated with Nuke Em by Flying Skull mixed to extra strength (237ml/gal) and sprayed the foliage thoroughly and wet the top of the soil. I'll continue every other day if it seems to be helping. Fed the EPs and SCPs till runoff ~1 gal each: Silica Blast 3ml/g Liquid Karma 7ml/g Cal-Mag 5ml/g Pure Blend Pro Bloom 8 ml/g Sweet Raw 4 ml/g Rhizo Blast 2ml/g Enzyme Komplete 8ml/g Hydroplex 3 ml/g PH 6.6 EC 2.35 Lights at 100% (450w) @ 24" Temp: Avg 76 High 81 Low 68 Hum: Avg 37 High 45 Low 30

👉Day 78: First day of flush, although the first water only feeding won't be till tomorrow. As for the rust, hard to say for sure if the Nuke Em helped, time will tell. Lights at 100% (450w) @ 24" Temp: Avg 75 High 81 Low 68 Hum: Avg 40 High 48 Low 30 👉Day 79: First feeding of PHed (6.7) water only. Fed them about a gallon each so I got a good 20% run through.

👉Day 92: Harvest day! Originally I planned to do all 4 plants in 12 or so hours, man was I off, I only had the two Elephant Purple done after 14 hours. I washed everything in 3 buckets First bucket to clean: 5 gal RO water 8 oz. baking soda 8 oz. lemon juice Second bucket to sanatise: 5 gal RO water Hydrogen peroxide diluted to .5% (200ml) Third bucket to rinse: 5 gal RO water Then hung and air dried overnight. 👉Day 93: Harvest day round 2. Cut and trimmed the two Scoops, again I figured as they were smaller it would only be another few hours but ended up being 16 more hours. Once again washed and hung to dry overnight. The lemon juice/baking soda bucket you can see is noticeably darker, and even the hydrogen peroxide bucket. The floaties seen are snipped sugar leaves and hairs. 👉Day 94: Scoops hung in the tent after direct airflow drying overnight. 👉Day 95: Humidity is getting a bit low so setup my lung room humidifier.

EP3 was the star of the grow, hardly touched by the rust issues, almost 4 ounces produced, a nice berry scent, a lovely purple coloring, and a decent frost. EP2 was not that great, it was most affected by rust, stunted by defoliation, not as purple, significantly less scent, less frosty, most of this will go into dry ice hash then rosin. Totals: EP3 105g 3.7oz 48g 1.69oz in bag 59g 2.08oz in jars EP2 92g 3.2oz 66g 2.33oz in bag 26g 0.92oz in jars Grand total of all plants 324g 11.43oz The lesson I learned from this was to always take in the smell when you open the tent, if it's musty jump on top of that ASAP. Secondly a dehumidifier for flowering is a must. I'll update again after cure with the taste and effects. Converted the EP2 bag (larf and popcorn nugs) to dry ice hash. Got 13g from 66g which is 19.7%

Overall the Scoops suffered from being rushed due to the rapid height growth of the EPs forcing me to start flowering these early, so they were only about 2.5 ft tall at the finish. This also meant that the bud size suffered. They also suffered from rust but not as much as EP2 and mostly only SCP3 (Diagonal from EP2 in the direction of the fan). The lessons here being, don't grow difference strains unless you have a separate drying space. Additionally don't grow two different brands of clones unless you know they are about the same age.
