Here we begin, the germination method I use is: soak the seeds for 14h than paper towel, in the dark with a heat mat under it for around. 3-5 days. After taproots come out, I’ll plant them into organic recycled live soil and under the humidity fome they go. I keep temperatures around 24-26C humidity high at 70-80%, spray water every day in the am and at night, tap water nothing fancy. Now we wait for them to take off.

She is a beast at the end of week 5 (day 35). LST Goal: Create an even FLAT Canopy with out the use of Scrog nets or stakes. This is achieved by tying down all the branches evenly, so that every top gets the same amount of exposure to light, air and nutrients.

# ? Blue Waffle F1 — Pheno B ## Germination Week | Every Seed Finds Its Own Pace Hello GrowDiaries family! 👋🌱 Welcome to the second diary of the Blue Waffle F1 project. While Pheno A was the first seedling to emerge, today we focus on her sister, Blue Waffle F1 Pheno B. One of the most fascinating aspects of growing cannabis is discovering that even when everything is identical, every seed still chooses its own path. Same genetics. Same environment. Same grower. Same soil. Same equipment. Yet every seed tells its own story. And that's exactly why I decided to document each phenotype individually. --- ## A New Project Begins This diary is part of a completely separate project from my ongoing 12/12-from-seed garden. For this run, the objective is very different. Rather than flowering from day one, these plants will be grown under a traditional vegetative schedule, allowing them to fully develop before any decisions are made regarding training or structure. Current plans include: - 18/6 light schedule - Full vegetative development - Potential Low Stress Training (LST) - Potential topping - Possible Scrog implementation - Structural development observations - Full seed-to-harvest documentation At this stage, however, everything begins with germination. --- ## The Cannakan Germination Method Like many of the plants in my garden, Blue Waffle F1 Pheno B began life inside the Cannakan germination system. The process remains intentionally simple. The seed was placed into the system using only plain water. No nutrients. No additives. No stimulants. Just water. After approximately 24 hours of soaking, most of the water was removed, leaving only enough moisture to maintain ideal germination conditions. The seed quickly responded. A healthy taproot emerged and shortly afterward it was time to move into soil. Simple. Clean. Effective. Exactly how I like germination to be. --- ## Why Only Water? One question that often appears during germination is: "Why not feed the seed immediately?" The answer is surprisingly simple. The seed already contains everything required for the earliest stage of life. Inside the shell are all the energy reserves needed to establish roots and begin early development. At this stage I prefer allowing nature to do exactly what nature designed the seed to do. The goal is not to feed the plant. The goal is simply to wake it up. Water is enough. The rest is already stored inside. --- ## From Germination To Soil Once a healthy taproot appeared, Blue Waffle F1 Pheno B was transferred directly into Plagron Lightmix. This substrate has become a favorite starting medium because of its light texture, excellent aeration, and forgiving nature during early development. The seed settled into its new home and quickly began establishing roots. Although slightly slower than her sister, Pheno B emerged successfully and showed healthy early vigor from the very beginning. Sometimes one seed simply likes to take an extra moment before introducing itself. That doesn't make it weaker. It simply means it's following its own schedule. --- ## Why Use A Humidity Dome? During the first few days after emergence, both Blue Waffle seedlings spent time inside a humidity dome. Young seedlings have extremely small root systems and therefore limited access to water. Maintaining elevated humidity around the plant helps reduce moisture loss through the leaves while the root system develops below the surface. The humidity dome is not intended as a permanent environment. It is simply a temporary tool designed to support the plant during one of the most delicate stages of its life. As root development improves, the dome is removed and the plant begins adapting to the environment it will experience throughout the remainder of the grow. The goal is adaptation. Not dependence. --- ## Building The New Zamnesia Grow Tent Kit One of the most exciting parts of this project was assembling the brand-new Zamnesia Grow Tent Kit that will be used throughout the entire grow cycle. The entire system was assembled by one person without assistance. Even including: - Tent assembly - LED installation - Carbon filter setup - Inline fan installation - Ducting - Controller setup - Cable management Everything was fully operational in less than an hour. The instructions included with the kit are excellent and very beginner friendly. In my particular grow space I needed to make a few adjustments and perform some creative positioning to fit everything exactly how I wanted, but the process remained straightforward. The first impression was extremely positive. Build quality feels excellent. Materials feel solid. Assembly was simple. And now comes the fun part: Putting everything to the test. --- ## What's Included In The Kit? This project is being grown entirely using the Zamnesia Grow Tent Kit. The package includes: - Grow Tent 100×100×200 cm - Phytonaut LED Grow Light 320W - Inline Duct Fan 150 mm - Carbon Filter Air Purifier 150 mm - Grow Environment Controller - Grow Tent Clip Fan - Flexible Ducting - 24-Hour Timer - Rope Ratchet Hangers - Velcro Cable Management Accessories Everything currently operating inside the tent comes directly from this kit. No substitutions. No upgrades. No modifications. This allows a genuine evaluation of the complete system exactly as supplied. --- ## Environmental Conditions For this first week, conditions remained intentionally gentle. Using a PAR meter, light intensity was measured at approximately: ~200 PPFD Young seedlings simply do not require intense lighting. The objective during this stage is healthy establishment rather than rapid growth. Environmental conditions remained stable throughout the week, allowing both seedlings to focus their energy on root development and early growth. The response was exactly what I hoped to see. Healthy posture. Healthy color. Steady progression. And no signs of stress. --- ## First Impressions Of Blue Waffle F1 Pheno B Although Pheno B emerged slightly later than her sister, she quickly demonstrated healthy vigor and strong development. Color remains excellent. Structure appears balanced. Growth is steady and consistent. And the differences between both phenotypes are already beginning to emerge. That is exactly why these individual diaries exist. Watching each plant reveal its personality is one of the most rewarding parts of growing. At only one week old, this story is still just beginning. --- ## Looking Ahead Over the coming weeks we'll continue documenting every stage of development. We'll follow: - Root establishment - Vegetative growth - Environmental management - Structural development - Training decisions - Nutrient progression - Genetic expression - And whatever unique characteristics this phenotype decides to reveal For now, Blue Waffle F1 Pheno B has completed a successful first week and has settled comfortably into her new home. The roots are growing. The leaves are reaching. And the adventure has officially begun. Grower's Love everyone. 💚🌱? Sometimes the plant that takes an extra day to arrive ends up telling the most interesting story.

So this week after I gave it under nutrients I apparently gave it too much nitrogen while having a potassium deficiency. Shiney dark leaves, So i fixed that, but some didn't bounce back, and I tried nitrogen. I think they are doing pretty good considering everything I've put them through SO FAR. lol. Nutrients are NPK Raw's total lineup, follow their instructions at first, Fastbuds adjustments as of this week.

Hello, readers! Changed solution. Even though, i'm glad it's still not roting! Not sure, what have changed, that now it's feeling good. I have done some stretching, but this was the last one. I decided to completely untie her. It's time to grow vertically! To the sky, to the sun. From the heart :D I actually have done defoliation in one of this days, but i cut only few leaves, so that doesn't count. By the end of the week, i feel like, she didn't visit barber for a months :D Will be defoliating a lot on the next week.

Welcome back to week 3 of this grow diary! Just like the other plant this one is unfortunately presenting with an interveinal chlorosis and also at the end of the week it started developing some brown spots mainly at the leave edges. I’m not really sure what’s going on but I suspect it’s a magnesium deficiency that’s the only thing making sense to me. I had slight problems with adjusting my watering volume and frequency to this new substrate. I overwatered a bit last week because the substrate apparently has a higher water holding capacity. Immediate actions: Less watering, corrugated cardboard under planters for insulation from cold tiles, checked soil PH (slurry test), ordered Epsom salt (should take about a week to arrive) for foliar application. I’m pondering flushing the substrate so that I can be sure it’s not caused by excess of other nutrients and lockout. But since I noticed that the substrate holds water a little bit to well for my taste this could also backfire and further worsen symptoms. Unsure on how to proceed, guess I’ll have to wait for the Epsom salt and try if a foliar spray improves the status of my plants :( Let me know if you have any input on the matter!

Oops! Well, the two days in the 80s and nights in the 70s sent my girls into high desert flower! That and two out of season rain days and BOOM! We are now a flower farm! To be honest, I wasn’t sure at first- then, yesterday morning, three bees bee lined and flew to each of the bud sites. My hand wringing (was it or wasn’t it flowers?) was answered - by Mother Nature herself without muss or fuss. No more salad! Flowers! Also, a shock to no one, I bought a ruler yesterday, and while I listed my plants as 29 inches, I sadly have no idea what 12 inches really is. They are about 18 after supercropping. Needless to say other measurements were, sadly reconsidered…. 7/31 transferred banana mango to a 30 Gallon pot 💪
