Hello again, Growmies, As we proudly step into week 10 with our Epic Buzz, the symbiosis of nature and technology in our garden is truly flourishing. The dedication of TrolMaster's automation system is reflected in the thriving state of Epic Buzz #1, #2, and #3, which are burgeoning with vitality and promise. Epic Buzz #1 is a spectacle, adorned with clusters of dense flowers that are bursting with trichomes—each bud a sparkling testament to the perfect environment we've provided. The light frosting is spreading across the foliage, foretelling the potent harvest that awaits us. In our controlled ecosystem, the average Vapor Pressure Deficit (VPD) has been right on target, ensuring optimal transpiration without stressing our beloved plants. This careful balance optimizes their uptake of water and nutrients, fostering the luscious flowering we're observing. Siblings #2 and #3 are not to be outdone, with their own dense, sticky flowers reaching for the heavens, eagerly soaking in every ounce of light. Their robust health and vigour are clear indicators of the success of our environmental stewardship. Our environmental graph this week is a testament to our commitment to stability. The temperatures and humidity have held within the ideal range, if we discount the outliers, maintaining a conducive atmosphere for the Epic Buzz family's development. The steadfast nature of the EC and pH of our nutrient solution has played a pivotal role in this week's triumph. This unwavering supply of nutrition has been crucial, providing our Epic Buzz plants with the sustenance they need to thrive. As we look to the coming weeks, it's with a sense of eager anticipation. The Epic Buzz trio, with their hedgehog-like buds and early frost, are not just plants but representations of cultivation mastery. They are a living tribute to the precision of our environment, lovingly controlled and monitored for their benefit. And so, as we anticipate the final stretch of this grow cycle, we remain captivated by the daily progress and the nearing harvest. With each day, we're reminded of the beauty and strength found in diversity and balance. Stay lifted, Salokin

05/17 - Both are vegging accordingly - applied a hard LST to even out the canopy and distribute light coverage around the plants - Both are currently in 1 gallon pots - Both will be transplanted into 5 gallon pots by the end of the week - I will begin micro-dosing their nute feeds to negate transplant shock. 05/18 - Both ladies are doing great after transplant (5 gall pots) - No transplant shock - I gave them both a heavy hit of silica to assist in the transplant recovery - They will be will be in the 2x2 until next and then both moved into the 4x4. 05/23 - Both of the ladies have blown out and top colas are healthy and tall - In an effort to expose more light coverage to the middle both plants will be moved into the 3x3 and a net will be dropped on them today or tomorrow - They will be ran in the same conditions as the nursery tent (High Temp/High Humidity) - Both ladies will also be hooked up to the Vivosun drip emitter system for more consistent and efficient feeds.

She only got ph dusted RO water after the canna flush application. First I thought to continue to feed her for another week and then flush, however I felt that the fade was already to far along.

Welcome to the beginning of week 13. Amnesia lemon haze looks happy and healthy. Not much else to report about this girl at the moment. Thanks for taking a look at my grow 👽🌳

Hey Leute die pflanze zeigt langsames blühten Wachstum und Mangelerscheinungen ich denke durch den kleinen Topf sollte ich wohl die Dosis ein wenig erhöhen aber ich mein was will man erwarten ich muss auch gestehen das ich die nebenbei stehen habe

💙 Project Blue Tent – Week 7 Blue Waffle F1 – Pheno A (Folder 13A) Welcome back everyone to another week inside Project Blue Tent! 💙🌱 If you're new here, welcome aboard. This project is all about exploring the incredible Blue Waffle F1 genetics from Zamnesia while putting the complete growing ecosystem through its paces. Rather than documenting four plants as a single diary, each phenotype receives its own individual journey from seed to harvest. They share the same tent, the same environment, the same nutrition, the same irrigation and the same lighting. And yet... They still manage to tell four completely different stories. As I always like to say: We're not just growing plants. We're getting to know them. ──────────────────────── 🌿 Week Seven – The Final Cleanup This week feels like a milestone. The SCROG has done its job. The canopy is full. The plants have established their structure. And now it's time to prepare everything for the next chapter... Flowering. 🌸 Plant A is looking absolutely beautiful at the moment. Her foliage has developed into the rich, healthy green I've been hoping to see, and the overall structure is remarkably balanced. After several weeks of gently guiding branches underneath the SCROG, we've managed to create a canopy that is surprisingly even from one side of the tent to the other. At approximately 60 cm, she's sitting comfortably within the space we've created for her. And although she could certainly continue growing vegetatively, I don't want to simply keep filling the tent with more and more foliage. At some point, you have to stop building the canopy... ...and start preparing it for what comes next. That's exactly where we are now. ──────────────────────── 🕸️ From SCROG to Flower Over the last couple of weeks, the SCROG has completely changed the way these plants occupy the tent. Instead of allowing individual branches to dominate vertically, we've been gently guiding them horizontally beneath the screen. The result is exactly what we were looking for: A broad, relatively even canopy with many developing tops sharing the available light. SCROG isn't about forcing a plant into submission. It's about working with its natural growth and redistributing that growth across the available space. And looking at the tent now... I'd say the mission has been accomplished. The screen is filled. The plants have claimed their territory. Now we need to create the best possible starting point for flowering. Which brings us to this week's main job. ──────────────────────── ✂️ Defoliation – Cleaning Today for a Better Tomorrow This week we're performing a deep, purposeful defoliation across the canopy. For anyone unfamiliar with the technique, defoliation simply means selectively removing leaves from the plant. But it's important to understand what defoliation isn't. It isn't stripping a plant bare. It isn't removing leaves just because they're in the way. And it isn't something that should automatically be performed every week. The purpose is to improve the structure we've already created. After several weeks of SCROG training, there is now a tremendous amount of foliage packed into a relatively small space. While those leaves are essential during vegetative growth, too much overlapping foliage can eventually create unnecessary congestion inside the canopy. So we're removing selected leaves that are: • Blocking developing growth • Creating unnecessary overlap • Restricting airflow through the interior • Shading lower areas that we've decided to retain • Or simply no longer contributing enough to justify occupying that space The goal isn't to make the plant look empty. The goal is to make the plant efficient. ──────────────────────── 🌬️ Why Defoliate Before Flower? Timing is everything. We're doing this now because the plants are still in vegetative growth and have time to recover before we ask them to transition into flowering. Defoliation is a form of stress. Even when performed carefully, removing a significant amount of foliage temporarily changes the plant's balance between its leaves, roots and growing points. That's why I don't want to perform a major cleanup deep into flowering unless there's a very good reason. Right now, the plants can take that short period of recovery while they're still operating under an 18/6 light schedule and actively producing new vegetative growth. After the cleanup, we'll give them time to recover, settle and rebuild their foliage before flipping the lights. The idea is simple: Stress now. Recover now. Flower later. Rather than asking the plant to simultaneously deal with a major transition into flowering and a significant amount of pruning, we're separating those events. One step at a time. That's especially important in a project like this, where I'm trying to observe the plants rather than simply push them as hard as possible. ──────────────────────── 🌿 Plant A – Looking Better Than Ever Plant A continues to impress me. The first thing that stands out this week is the colour. That slightly lighter appearance we saw earlier in the grow has completely disappeared. The foliage is now displaying that rich, healthy green that tells me the current nutritional strategy is working extremely well. She's vigorous without looking excessive. Healthy without showing signs of nutritional stress. And most importantly... She's balanced. Her branches have responded beautifully to the SCROG, and the canopy has developed into a very usable structure for flowering. This is one of those moments where you can look at the plant and realize that the weeks of small adjustments have finally come together. The topping. The recovery. The daily SCROG work. The irrigation. The feeding. The environmental stability. None of those things created this canopy by themselves. They're all pieces of the same puzzle. ──────────────────────── 💧 The Drip Irrigation System One of the things I have become particularly impressed with during this project is the automatic drip irrigation system. It's working beautifully. With the plants now drinking more consistently and the canopy becoming increasingly demanding, having a reliable irrigation system makes maintaining uniformity across the tent considerably easier. Each plant is currently receiving approximately 1.2 L per 24 hours, delivered through the drip system. And the plants are clearly enjoying the consistency. One of the advantages of automated irrigation isn't simply saving time. It's repeatability. Instead of relying on every watering being manually performed at exactly the same interval and volume, the system provides a much more consistent routine for the plants. That consistency becomes increasingly valuable as the root systems develop and the plants transition toward flowering. So far... The system is doing exactly what I wanted it to do. And honestly, watching four plants respond so uniformly to the same irrigation strategy has been one of the most satisfying parts of this project. ──────────────────────── 🥥 Feeding Program The feeding recipe remains unchanged this week. And for now, I don't see a reason to interfere with something that is clearly working. Current nutrition: • Plagron Hydro A — 1.9 ml/L • Plagron Hydro B — 1.9 ml/L • Plagron Hydro Roots — 1 ml/L Current EC remains approximately: 1.92 mS/cm with the solution maintained around 18°C and pH at 5.8. The plants are showing excellent colour, strong growth and healthy leaf development, so I'm perfectly comfortable maintaining the current recipe for now. We may increase the nutritional strength next week depending on how the plants respond after defoliation and as flowering approaches. But that's exactly why I don't like changing several variables at once. First, we observe. Then we adjust. The plants will tell us what they need. ──────────────────────── 🌡️ Environmental Conditions The Blue Tent continues to remain remarkably stable. This week's average conditions were: • 🌡️ Day Temperature: 28°C • 🌙 Night Temperature: 27°C • 💧 Relative Humidity: 65% • 🥥 Substrate Temperature: 24°C • 💦 Nutrient Solution: 18°C • ⚗️ pH: 5.8 • ⚡ EC: 1.92 mS/cm • 💨 CO₂: approximately 450 ppm • 💡 Light Schedule: 18/6 • 💧 Irrigation: approximately 1.2 L/plant/24h • ? Pot Size: 8 L • 📏 Plant Height: approximately 60 cm The plants are continuing to respond beautifully to these conditions. The root-zone temperature remains particularly stable, irrigation is consistent, and the canopy has enough air movement to support vigorous transpiration. As we move toward flowering, environmental management will become even more important. The room we've created now needs to support not only vegetative growth... ...but the much denser flowering structure that is coming next. ──────────────────────── 🌬️ Why the Cleanup Matters One of my main objectives with this defoliation isn't simply aesthetics. It's airflow. When four vigorous plants completely fill a 100 × 100 × 200 cm tent, the amount of foliage inside that space becomes considerable. From above, everything can look absolutely perfect. But underneath that beautiful canopy is another story. Leaves overlap. Branches cross. Interior spaces become crowded. Air needs to move through all of that. By selectively removing excess foliage now, we're opening those internal spaces before flowering begins. That gives us a cleaner structure going forward and makes it much easier to inspect the plants, maintain airflow and monitor the developing flowers. This is also one reason I'm much happier doing the major cleanup before the flip rather than waiting until the plants are deep into flowering. Once flowering begins, the priorities change. I want the plant concentrating its energy on developing flowers rather than repeatedly recovering from major structural work. So we're preparing the room now. Clean canopy. Good airflow. Healthy structure. Then... Flower. ──────────────────────── 🧠 Defoliation Isn't About Removing Leaves One of the biggest misconceptions surrounding defoliation is that more leaves automatically means a worse plant. That's not true. Leaves are incredibly important. They're the plant's solar panels. They capture light and help drive photosynthesis. So the objective should never be: "How many leaves can I remove?" The better question is: "Which leaves are no longer contributing enough to justify occupying this space?" That's the philosophy I'm following here. We're not trying to weaken the plant. We're trying to improve the relationship between: Light → canopy → airflow → growing sites. And because we've already spent weeks creating the structure with SCROG, this cleanup is simply the final refinement of that work. ──────────────────────── 🌱 Plant A's Personality Every phenotype continues to develop its own personality, even when all four plants are living under almost identical conditions. Plant A has consistently been one of the more balanced girls in the tent. She doesn't appear interested in becoming the biggest plant in the room. Instead, she seems much more interested in becoming an efficient one. Her growth is structured. Her canopy is balanced. Her foliage is beautiful. And after weeks of training, she has settled into the SCROG extremely well. Now, after today's cleanup, she looks almost like a different plant. Less crowded. More open. More organized. And ready for the next chapter. That's the part of growing I really enjoy. You spend weeks slowly building something... Then one day you step back and suddenly realize: It all came together. ──────────────────────── 👀 Looking Ahead The next few days will be about one thing: Recovery. No unnecessary training. No chasing perfection. No constantly changing the environment. Just observation. The plants have been through topping. They've been trained beneath the SCROG. They've filled the canopy. And now they've received their final major vegetative cleanup. So we're going to let them breathe. Let them recover. Let them continue growing. And then, assuming everything continues to look as good as it does today... we flip the Blue Tent into flower. 🌸 This is the point where all those weeks of preparation finally start paying off. The screen is full. The structure is ready. The plants are healthy. Now we just need to let them do what plants do best. Grow. ──────────────────────── 💙 Thank You A huge thank you to Zamnesia for making Project Blue Tent possible, from these fantastic Blue Waffle F1 genetics to the complete ecosystem surrounding this grow. A massive thank you to Plagron for providing the Premium Growbags together with the Hydro nutrient line, which continues delivering excellent results and beautifully healthy growth. A special thank you to Mars Hydro for the drip irrigation and automatic drainage system. After watching these plants respond to the consistency of automated irrigation week after week, I'm genuinely impressed with how well the system is performing. Thank you as well to GrowDiaries, for giving growers around the world a place to document their journeys, exchange knowledge and learn from one another. And finally... Thank you to everyone following Project Blue Tent. Every comment, every question, every bit of feedback and every person simply stopping by to see how these four phenotypes are developing means more than you probably realize. We've spent weeks building this canopy together. Now the really exciting part is about to begin. The plants are cleaned. The SCROG has been filled. The room is ready. Flower is next. 🌸💙 Until next week... Growers Love, happy growing, and take care everyone! 🌱💙

Im changed my lamp from 450w cob diy led to 600w hps sylvania grolux :) will see

È arrivato il momento del booster in piu per la fioritura sia per la papaya cookies sia per banana col pk 13 14 la soluzione è salita a 7.1 di ph e ho dovuto abbassarlo fino al 6.2 con un ec massimo di 1.4 per avitare l over-fertilizzazione dato che in terra ancora ho un ec intorno al 0.6 La gelato ancora è in via di sviluppo Ho dovuto spostare la papaya davanti perchè è molto larga è tende sempre di piu ad allargarsi per via del peso delle gemme

Just molasses and ph'd water she nice and cloudy but no amber's yet. Be another week till the chop. 17/1 chopped her tonight she had 24 hours of dark before the end.

Hi, The plants are doing very well; I've given them some extra space to flower. The other photoperiod plants have been moved to another room. I'll create a journal for them with details about their cultivation.

. 📹 : Full Video on YouTube @hinterhofgrower, please like & subscribe 🌱 : LST & litttle defoliation on day 61 💧 : 4l day 58, 4l day 61 💡 : Dli: 45 mol/m²/d 🤔 : Week 9 was more relaxed. Just some LST (low stress training) and a little defoliation to give all the flowers more even light. She's now drinking about 1 liter of nutrient solution per day.

All good she look healthy again, she reminds me to Lowryder#1, :D w/e we are good rigth now. i hope a big central Cola , like a bottle :D day 42 irrigation

SWISS DREAM ROSE 🌹 CBD AUTO ORGANIC by KANNABIA Week #14 Overall Week #11 Flower This week she's looking great and smells sweet 😋 after checking trichomes she's got one week left before harvest buds are really dense she's just a wonderful plant to grow 😊 I haven't had any issues at all with this lady!! Stay Growing!! Kannabia.com Swiss Dream Rose🌹 CBD Auto

Une des 2 pheno est vraiment devenue plus rouge que l'autre. Tres belle tete rosé . Tres resistante . Une des 2 fait parti de mes 3 plante a avoir eu problem ph et elle a sue sortir du lot et reprendre ca semaine perdu pour devenir une des plus grosse plante dans les 5 qui on pousser cote a cote .

26/09 Today, at the beginning of the second week of color, I nevertheless decided to remove a few unnecessary and interfering stakes. I also removed small shoots and some leaves that greatly interfered with the penetration of light to the shoots. I connected the problem with an overabundance of N with the fact that I have both AD components mixed. It turns out the formula 4 3 8, I think to remove a little Grow 1-0-4 component and then you will get an excellent compote for these bushes, I will also change the irrigation scheme, I will give 400 ml per day, instead of 800 in two days with formula 3-3-4 Even today I mixed a new compote with formula 3 3 4 , and added AD Grow just 1ml/1L and decided to add a little 5ml less AD Micro and AD Bloom . Let's see how things go . And I also took better photos, rate in the comments guys!! 30/09 Hi all! Continue. monitor the condition of the lowrider, it seems that the burnt edges of the sheets have begun to pass, periodically I just water it with water, and I made a little less content of the Grow element. The babies are developing extremely cool, I think that so far I am moving in the right direction I water 10% of the pot, they have 7 liters each

Punch pies before chop

Weeks 10/11 frost banger

I've Transplanted this beautiful amnesia Fast into a 15l pot and I'll start applying LST technique very soon, let's see how this pretty lady performs 💚👨‍🌾🌱
