🥒 Project Blue Tent – Week 5 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Pheno B (Folder 14B) Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of Project Blue Tent! 💙🌱 For anyone discovering this diary for the first time, Project Blue Tent follows four individual Pickle Lemon Haze F1 plants, each grown under exactly the same environmental conditions while being documented separately from seed to harvest. Although every plant shares the same genetics, each one develops its own personality, growth habits and structure. By giving every phenotype its own diary, we get to appreciate those subtle differences while learning how each plant responds throughout the entire grow. Today we're checking in on Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Plant B. ────────────────────────────── 🌱 Week Five – Filling Every Corner This week has been all about controlled expansion. After recovering beautifully from last week's topping, Plant B has exploded with vigorous new growth. Rather than stretching excessively, she's focused her energy on producing an incredible number of side branches, creating one of the bushiest structures inside the tent. With so many healthy shoots developing, it was the perfect moment to begin introducing the SCROG net. For anyone unfamiliar with the technique, SCROG stands for Screen of Green. Instead of allowing the plant to grow vertically, each branch is gently guided underneath a horizontal net, encouraging it to spread across the available space. The objective isn't simply to make the plant wider. By opening the canopy, every future flowering site receives better light penetration and improved airflow, while creating a much more even surface for flowering later on. Rather than producing one dominant cola, the plant is encouraged to develop many equally productive tops. This week we spent some time gently bending and positioning branches beneath the screen, allowing Plant B to begin claiming her share of the canopy. She handled it like an absolute champion. ────────────────────────────── 🌡️ Environmental Conditions Maintaining consistency continues to be one of the main goals inside Project Blue Tent. Stable environmental conditions allow the plants to recover quickly from training while maintaining uninterrupted vegetative growth. This week's average conditions were: • 🌡️ Day temperature: 30°C • 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C • 💧 Relative humidity: 58% • 🥥 Root zone temperature: 24°C • 💦 Nutrient solution: 18°C • ⚗️ pH: 5.8 • ⚡ EC: 1.92 mS/cm • 💨 CO₂: approximately 450 ppm • 💡 Light schedule: 18/6 Despite the slightly warmer daytime temperatures this week, the plants have continued growing vigorously, showing excellent transpiration and healthy development throughout the room. ────────────────────────────── 🥥 Feeding Strategy As the plants continue increasing their growth rate, their nutritional demands naturally increase alongside them. A couple of weeks ago all four phenotypes began displaying a slightly lighter shade of green. Since every plant responded the same way while maintaining vigorous growth, it was clear they simply wanted a little more food rather than showing signs of stress. The feeding schedule was adjusted accordingly and continues producing exactly the response I was hoping for. Current feeding consists of: • Plagron Hydro A — 1.9 ml/L • Plagron Hydro B — 1.9 ml/L • Plagron Hydro Roots — 1 ml/L The newest growth is gradually deepening back into a richer green while maintaining excellent growth speed and healthy leaf development. Sometimes the smallest adjustments make the biggest difference. ────────────────────────────── 🌿 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Plant B Every week this phenotype becomes more interesting. While her sister shows slightly more vertical ambition, Plant B has decided to become an absolute bush. The recovery after topping has been outstanding. Both new main leaders have established themselves perfectly while countless secondary branches continue racing upward, creating an incredibly dense canopy filled with future flowering sites. After introducing the SCROG net this week, it quickly became obvious just how much lateral growth she's capable of producing. Every branch seemed eager to occupy its own space, making the training process surprisingly enjoyable. One characteristic that really stands out is her natural symmetry. Even after being bent in multiple directions, she continues producing an impressively balanced framework with very even spacing between developing tops. Her stems continue thickening nicely, internodal spacing remains compact, and leaf posture stays upright throughout the day, clear signs that she's handling every bit of training without complaint. She's lush, healthy, vigorous, and showing exactly the kind of structure I love seeing before flowering. Looking at her now, it's hard to believe she was topped only a short time ago. ────────────────────────────── 🌿 Looking Ahead As both Pickle Lemon Haze sisters continue filling the tent, canopy management is becoming increasingly important. These two ladies are definitely going to compete for space over the coming weeks, and that's exactly the kind of problem every grower enjoys having. The next step will simply be continuing to weave branches through the SCROG net while allowing every future top to find its own place in the canopy. A light selective defoliation may also become necessary soon. Not because the plant needs correcting, but simply to improve airflow and allow more light to reach the rapidly developing interior branches hidden beneath this beautiful sea of leaves. For now, though, she's doing exactly what I hoped she would. Growing wider. Growing stronger. And becoming one impressive little bush. ────────────────────────────── 💙 Thank You A huge thank you goes to Zamnesia for the incredible Pickle Lemon Haze F1 genetics and for providing the complete ecosystem that makes Project Blue Tent possible. Another heartfelt thank you goes to Plagron for supplying the Premium Growbags together with the Hydro nutrient line, helping these ladies build strong root systems and maintain vigorous growth week after week. I'd also like to thank GrowDiaries for providing a platform where growers from around the world can document their journeys, exchange knowledge, and continue inspiring one another every single day. And finally, thank you to everyone following Project Blue Tent. Whether you've been here since germination, recently discovered these diaries, actively leave comments every week, or simply enjoy watching these beautiful plants evolve, your support truly means a lot. Every phenotype tells its own story. This one is quickly becoming one of my favourites. I hope you're all having an amazing week. Until next time... Growers Love, happy growing, and take care everyone! 💚🌱

Things are going fast, HulkBerry 1 look close to the end, I will start to wash it soon. I think the cookies gelato familly will end in something like 2 weeks, but not sure. Feel free to let me know what u think about. I got a real problem with the Royal Bluematic 2, buds are so small and weak. Not sure to bring it AT the end.

Ultima settimana di crescita, fra un paio di giorni si eseguira' una defogliazione un po più intensa, per poi poter cambiare ciclo di illuminazione. Durante il periodo di crescita in questo caso ho tolto solo le prime due coppie di rami e le prime foglie primordiali. Ho notato che con meno stress, si arriva al cambio 12/12 con delle piante molto meno allungate. Vedremo consa succede nei giorni a venire 💚 Ps. Se vi piacciono i miei dari, fate un saluto e seguitemi per nuove avventure

no todo está perdido! agregue más nitrógeno sin pensar en fertilizar de mas. ahora sí que fui yo y no ella... poco tiempo pero se recuperaron las fast buds... esperemos algo de buena cosecha ruderalis... creció un poco más y no veo que afecte a las pequeñas flores formándose ... happy grow a todos!

Started to flush my plant today ... I love the smell of this plant it’s sweet as they come

8/21/24 gave her some cal mag from the uprising foundation. 5 ml total for the 5 gal pot. 3 tsp of grow and 2 tsp of bloom. slowly transitioning from grow to bloom over the course of 4 weeks. did some light defoliation and some lollipopping. shes not too bushy in the sense of leafy. her fan leaves have super long petioles. 8/26 she's grown four inches so far this week. about an inch a day. wild.

Checkout my Instagram @smallbudz to see the Small budget grow setup for indoor use, low watt, low heat, low noise, step by step. 08/11/2019 - Showing early flower development? 09/11/2019 - Gave her 0.500 ml plain water PH 6.5, she's starting to need more water and also due to 30c temps. She's also showing light green around the leafs maybe slight magnesium deficiency. 10/11/2019 - Yellow leafs showing up really fast so I 'flushed' the medium with 1l of 6.4 PH plain water, watered until some run off start to showing, change the watering plan again, now I only water when the pot feels light and dry at the bottom. 13/11/2019 - Pot was really light and dry at the bottom so I gave her 1.5l of water with 0,75ml of Grow, 1,5ml of Bloom and 0.75ml of Max BioBizz PH 6.5 until some runoff started to appear I think was too much again : also added a work-supplement led strip light. 14/11/2019 - Leaves looking pale raise the light to 45cm instead of the recommended by manufacture 25-40cm.

So far Cherry Bellini was a stressful little lady early on during veg, showing signs to anything from a slight e.c change early or ph change or even temps. You name it she would she her displeasure towards you even if you did everything correctly. Later during veg she straighten herself up and became less stressed out towards lst, topping, and everything in between. She's now the biggest one out of the bunch. Light went from 60% to 90% over Week 5 to Week 6, next 2 days she'll be at 100% ready for flowering. 2 set AC infinity bar lights will go in over this week as well as my scrogg net. Nutrients this round Floramax veg1 Floramax organabud Floramax flowering enhancer ( 1/4 ) dose Flairforms roots Sleepz with the fishes ( pythoff ) Cyco platinum series silica Floramax calmag E.c 2.2 Ph 5.9-6 Week 6 let's go 🚀🚀🚀

Still not given any food. It will be a few weeks until she needs food as I've just put her into a 4 ltr pot 👍

Plant 1 - 42 grams Plant 2 - 57 grams Plant 3 - 73 grams Plant 4 - 57 grams Total - 229 grams Not the best trim but I have been so busy and there was too many to trim. All in all nice grow.

Sep 13: almost done. Doing a chemical flush this year using Final Flush from Grotek. It uses citric acid as a chelating agent rather than EDTA (which I would rather avoid).

d.85 really fading hard, and buds are growing in size. just letting her do her thing, we are taking this to the end. also got my humidity down. d.87 buds are fattening up 😍 all i have to say about that is, bigger boots, bigger roots = bigger fruits. mainlining is possible with auto, as long as you choose a big enough pot size and time the topping and lst. after that part is done, then the auto just needs time to do its thing.

what a great strain! great yield and incredible scent! it grew very large buds, due to bad weather and high RH i sadly lost a few of the biggest buds, but still got an awesome yield

Week 5 day 35 today I turned the plants 180° and defoliated not too sure if I absolutely butchered them but its done now time will tell....they've been watered straight after also I've noticed no yellow tips or deficiency on leafs all through pur which is shocking...this strain is the best one I have grown soo far I've done about 5 so far over 10 years with big gaps so learning again for sure slowly 👍 would like to grow this again soon but properly next time... temps are around 26-27 still using the cfls to keep temps up and is going well so far. Im looking for seeds for next time I want to grow but can't seem to find this strain anywhere 😕

Last days in veg. I did the final defoliation before flipping to bloom. I’m really excited — the veg phase was super easy and a lot of fun with her. She’s definitely a training beast and constantly asking for nutrients.
