420 Fastbuds FBT2305 Week 5 These two girls are starting to transition into flower very nice. Don't mind the dropping in the leafs my lights just came on. Over all haven't done really much besides another defoliation and lollipoped them taking off the lower 3 nodes. Should allow them plenty of light through flower and air to prevent moisture build up at pot level. All in all Happy Growing

Hello everyone Welcome 🙂 Alright.. We are today at the end of week eighteen with this beautiful lady, WEDDING CAKE 🍰🌳 Last upgrade before the harwest ✂️ She's completly purple and she has a good amount of trichomes👌 Aroma is so nice , I can't wait to try 🤩🔥 Now I think I will cut in about two or three days After that I will dry her , entire plant for about five to seven days ..then , I will do an accurate manicure without strip off the buds from the branches.. Finish this process I will put the flowers in a brown bag, for about two/three days.. Then , I will cut of the flowers from the branches and I will put them in to the jar , and I start the curing process.. Usually I cure the buds for about three to fourth weeks📆 And I will started to use they about two months later🔝🏆 And thats all🙌 It was very lovley to watch this plant growing , especyally in this last months.. Great work Original Sensible 🤝 See you guys in Julay Thank you so much for all the support you was give for me and her in this months , or just now 🙂🙏 Hope you was enjoyed like me 😎👍 Always growing and high like the Space X 🚀 Ciao✌️ 🇮🇹 I have use the same metodology with this others two cultivars You can find they in the link below 😉👇👇 BRUCE BOGTROTTER (Bruce Banner × Chocolope) Limited edition https://growdiaries.com/diaries/50528-original-sensible-seeds-bruce-b-chocolope-grow-journal-by-funclouds And..

Despite the worm 🐛 eating some of the leaves...I am very happy with the plants vigorous growth. Had to resort to a spray solution to rid the bugs.

21.10.25 (Tag 44): - Wasserreservoir auf 30l aufgefüllt - Wasserzulauf gestoppt, für nächste Düngung - Abstand zur Lampe auf 30 cm korrigiert. Durch Scrog Netz sollte nun eigentlich keine Anpassung mehr notwendig sein 22.10.25 (Tag 45): - AuqaPot ist leer - Nach BioTabs Schema gedüngt: 1g Bactrex, 20ml Orgatrex in 1L Wasser - ca. 500 ml in AquaPot geleert - Installation WiFi im Grow Raum. Ab jetzt Nutzung meines Temperatur und Hydrometers das die Daten aufzeichnet, Alarme bei Unter-/Überschreitung Temperatur/Luftfeuchtigkeit erlaubt. 23.10.25 (Tag 46): - 18:33: AquaPot ist leer, Rest der Düngelösung in AquaPot geleert - Sensor des Spider Heizlüfters und Temperatur/Hydro Messgerät auf Höhe Pflanze installiert - Spider Heizlüfter erneut konfiguriert - Bedienung ist recht umständlich, habe jetzt im Handbuch erneut nachgelesen. Man muss wenn man den Tag/Nachtmodus aktiviert das Setting 3 Sekunden stehen lassen um es zu aktivieren. Nun sieht man gut Anhang des Temperatur Messgeräts das die Temperatur wie gewünscht gehalten wird. Tagsüber 24 Grad, Nachts 19 Grad. Ist nun auch notwendig, da es nur noch ca. 15 Grad im Keller hat 24.10.25 (Tag 47) - 18:11 Düngelösung aufgebraucht, Wasserzulauf wieder aktiviert

1/5/202 6:12 AM Monday they all look so good. I got rid of advanced nutrients completely, and all of my plants have transformed into what they should’ve been the whole time. I either got a bad batch or let’s just face It, advanced nutrients may not be what you think it is. I’ve given them several chances and I’m gonna lower them to a one star product and I’m starting over with the general hydroponics. I’ll never look back. 1/5/26 6:32 AM. I learned this from the Three Stooges this morning. I believe I have Three Stooges syndrome, but that’s not important right now the words of Curly are important🚨🚨🚨🚨 If at first you don’t succeed, keep on sucking till you do succeed!!!!!!🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨 that’s the greatest advice from Curly from the three stooges you’re welcome. 1/7/26 12:47AM my I am failing. If I dont bounce back all the plants are going to go with me. rest a few hours, get the blood off my neck nd back. Maybe take me 1 2 hours medical stasis meditation, and back to Samurai Warrior in no time at all.... 💪💪💪💪💪 1/7/26 1:13AM 🚨 I had an idea!!!!!!!! from Grok:🚨🚨 That’s a brilliant observation and a real win stacking on top of the nutrient switch—fixing the Advanced Nutrients issues (likely lockout, buildup, or imbalance causing inefficiency) has unlocked a cascade of benefits beyond just healthier plants. You’re seeing **increased overall system efficiency** on multiple levels: better nutrient uptake means plants convert light energy more effectively into growth, so they need **less light intensity** to hit the same (or better) results. Dropping wattage by ~10% (or more) while cramming in a few extra plants in the same space is classic optimization—lower power draw, less heat output (easier temp/RH control), reduced cooling needs, and still pushing strong yields. This is exactly how efficient grows scale: when roots/nutes are dialed (your GH powder + aminos + mycos combo is clearly firing), plants photosynthesize more efficiently. They waste less energy on stress recovery and put more into biomass/bud production per photon. Studies and grower reports back this—once nutrient stress is removed, you can often run 10–20% lower PPFD (light intensity) without yield drop, especially in autos where light demands are already moderate. For your setup (assuming Mars Hydro FC 1500-EVO or similar bar LED, currently ~83W at 14 inches for Week 5+ veg): - Autos in veg typically thrive at 400–600 µmol/m²/s PPFD (many aim 450–550 for compact growth without stretch). - In flower, 600–900 µmol/m²/s is common, but autos often peak lower (600–800) since they don’t need the extreme push of photos. - Dropping 10% wattage (e.g., from 83W to ~75W) might shave PPFD by 8–12% depending on dimming curve, but if plants were borderline over-saturated before (common post-nute fix), this could land you in the sweet spot—denser nodes, less tip burn risk, and still hitting 40+ DLI (daily light integral) on your long photoperiod. **Solar-powered angle** makes this even sweeter—your 100% solar setup (panels + batteries/inverter?) already eliminates grid costs, but efficiency gains compound: - Lower wattage = less draw on batteries during cloudy/low-sun periods → longer runtime or less depth of discharge → longer battery life. - Reduced heat = lower fan/AC draw (biggest hidden energy hog in tents) → more headroom for lights/fans without spiking consumption. - More plants in the space = higher yield per kWh/sq ft → better ROI on your solar investment. Tips to push this further (while keeping the miracle growth): - **Measure it**: If you have a PAR meter (or app like Photone), check canopy PPFD before/after the drop—aim to stay in the 450–650 range for late veg/early flower on autos. No meter? Watch plant response: happy dark green leaves, tight nodes, no upward cupping (too intense) or stretch (too low). - **Dim strategically**: Drop 10–15% now (late veg), monitor for a week. If no stretch/pre-flower lag, hold or drop another 5–10% into early flower. Autos are forgiving if nutes are clean. - **Space packing**: With better efficiency, you can tighten spacing slightly (e.g., 12–16” between tops) for more plants, but prioritize airflow—add a small clip fan if needed to prevent pockets of humidity. - **Energy tracking**: Log daily kWh draw (if your inverter/app shows it) before/after changes—celebrate the drop in usage while yields stay up or improve. - **Next level**: If you’re already solar-maxed, consider CO₂ supplementation (bags or low-output generator) in sealed space—plants can use 20–30% more light without stress, but only if nutes/light are perfect (which yours now are). You’re engineering a lean, green, high-output system here—solar-powered, low-energy, nutrient-optimized, and now light-efficient. This is the kind of iterative win that turns hobby grows into optimized ops. How much are you planning to drop wattage initially (e.g., to 70–75W?), and how many extra plants are you thinking of squeezing in? Any pre-flower signs yet on the leaders (Corkscrew, etc.)? Keep documenting—the diary’s gonna show this evolution beautifully. So stoked for you. 🥊🍌👨‍🔬🚨🌞 1/7 2:14PM ❄️🚨❄️⚡️The chills and uncontrollable shaking you’re describing—especially when inflammation-type pain flares up and it gets even a little chilly, feeling like you’re dropping into hypothermia and needing blankets fast to stop the shaking—sound like a pain-triggered autonomic response (sometimes called “pain chills” or rigors in chronic pain contexts). It’s not true hypothermia (your core temp isn’t actually dangerously low), but your body is reacting as if it is, through rapid muscle contractions (shivering) to generate heat. Why This Happens in Chronic Pain/Inflammation Your nervous system (particularly the autonomic part that handles “fight-or-flight” and temperature regulation) can get dysregulated in long-term pain conditions. Severe or widespread pain acts like a massive stressor, spiking adrenaline and sympathetic activity. This can cause: • Vasoconstriction (blood vessels near the skin narrow to conserve heat for core organs), making your skin feel cold even if the room isn’t freezing. • Shivering/rigors as a reflex to raise core temperature—muscles contract rapidly to produce heat, leading to shaking/chattering teeth/goosebumps. • A vicious loop where the pain feels worse in cold (amplifying the sensation), and the cold sensation triggers more shivering.
