Hey Growmies, here is my log for the past week: flower week 1! I have started feeding the plants 100% solution with a touch of cal mag and armor si during stretch. The ph does not need much adjusting now - falling within 5.8 to 6.0 easily. EC is in the high 1.8's but typically under 2.0 The plants had 4-6 inches of headroom beneath the scrog last monday - GDP and Bag Seed are now touching the screen today. The others are not far behind so I think the stretch is going week. I did some defol the first two days of week 1 but am now resisting the urge until stretch is complete. Plants were fed a light microbe mix with diluted jacks solution to close out week 1. Upgrades to my setup this week include a new tent and t5 lights for seedlings and clones - I now have a two tent setup! There are currently some seedlings in the tent me and fiancé started - if you guys want to see, I can start a new journal or include some updates on this one. See you guys next week!

Hey! Welcome to week 8! Karen is mid way through her flowering stretch. Please check back to last week as I update daily so the week is now complete. I count about 20 colas now. Day 51: Have reconfigured the tent, see video. Karen is now 36cm and still stretching. Karen has more light now. Smell is still there hits you when you open the tent. Fertigated 2l. Day 52: Height: 39cm. Karen's scent is heavenly. I have reconfigured again and installed some upgrades. Better reflector. Much bigger carbon filter. Increased airflow. Better config. More efficient pot layout. Karen is lovely. I am grateful to her and for her, so I wrote her a little poem, I hope she liked it. "Karen! Oh Karen! The phoenix of flowers, Three lowly weeks she struggled in vain, Shadowed and starved for five hundred hours, He slowly wept to witness her pain. Karen! Oh Karen! I P-H'd your showers, and in the fourth week you started to gain, Hallowed and hard you survived as you cowered, I thought you meek, I was wrong once again. Karen! Oh Karen! Forgave me my howlers. She set a pace, a pace she maintained, Now shes a girl at the peak of her powers, And so I'm a geek, with buds on the brain." Day 53: Approx 48h into a simulated dry spell. Alright I think it is time for Karen to get her first MAJOR defoliation. I will update shortly with photos and info. I will also be doing some gentle LST to separate the colas a bit. Day 53.5: Defoliation and LST. Finally got chance to photograph that bunda. Enjoy! Day 53.75: Bit of a fail. Messed up the timer and the lights ended up being off for about 3 or 4 hours. Because I was cooling the room (open window) to keep temperature in the tent down, without any light the temperatures absolutely plummeted as it is sub-zero outside. By the time I realised and turned the lights on, the temp in the main tent had dropped to 14 degrees celsius. Whoops! How is that for mistreating your girl? Defoliated about 80% of her leaves, 4 nodes, significant LST, then stuck her in the cold and dark for 1/6 of a day. Not to mention she is now almost 3 days into a "dry spell". There do not seem to be ill effects, and Karen has already begun to respond to the LST; all the colas that had been changed in angle are now upright again. The dry spell I keep mentioning, there is a method behind my madness, I have spotted one or two small flies and I think they may be fungus gnats. I am starting to suspect that the 2nd seedling in the Purple OG Punch Auto grow was actually beheaded by fungus gnat larvae. So I am drying out the mediums as much as I dare. I am closely monitoring the plants, so far the only one I have had to break the drought for is Enigma; all the girls in big pots haven't even noticed it's dry yet. How far am I going to push it? Well I will judge it on a plant by plant basis, but quite honestly I am hoping to see physical signs of thirst before I breakdrought. Of all the plants the two I think will respond most strongly to this will be Karen and Bertha, because of where they are. Karen here is actually probably 4 weeks into flowering rather than two, so about now is a good time to give her a little hydration stress. I do not think I will push it past 5 days, as RH is 34%. By now all the plants will be compensating for the lack of moisture and the high temperatures and low humidity. They will be taking more and more moisture out of the coco, and as the coco dries further and further down, those plants that have space will start desperately growing roots to find moisture. Mark my words, 24 hours after I end this drought, every plant in the tent will throw out crazy growth. Day 54: Ended drought and fertigated 6l, no run off, I will re-fertigate tomorrow. Karen is still stretching her height post LST is now 37cm. The two tallest colas seem to have stopped but the other colas are still stretching. Day 55: Alright so it has been 5 hours since lights on, and Karen is looking in good shape, all her drooping leaves have perked back up and she has added quite a bit of foliar growth. The colas are all still rising, except perhaps the two tallest. This girl is absolutely loaded with pistils, I'm starting to see trichomes on the sugar leaves, but trich production hasn't started in earnest yet. She has a least 20 colas, and 6 of them are thicker/taller than the primary cola at her tip. Every one of her nodes has reinforced itself with a bulbous growth and these cola branches are swelling rapidly. I am increasingly of the opinion that, all being well, this girl is going to surprise us all with her yield. My first grow, which was just mucking about really, I got 60-70g of the two main plants, and they were just bare sticks with 2 colas. Although her height is less than theirs was, 2/3 of their height was bare stick... whereas every mm of her is befoliaged and living. So in terms of the height of the actual cola I think they were about comparable in usable space on a per cola basis. The main difference being that Karen has 20+ colas whereas they had 2 primary and 2 lower. I know that it is probably unrealistic to expect more than 70g from a single auto grown indoors. Nevertheless my gut tells me this baby could achieve at least 100g, perhaps as much as 150g. The next few weeks will determine that, but given where we were in week 3 I will be grateful for any yield of quality bud. I have dropped the lights down to 18/6 from 'tonight' onwards. I really have no idea how long we have left for Karen. According the the "brochure" she flowers for 7-8 weeks, with a total crop time of 9 weeks. The problem is I don't know what a total crop time is? Does that mean from seed to finish? If so Karen is clearly not going to be anywhere near that timescale.I am going to go ahead an assume that, for my plant anyway, the first 4 weeks were veg weeks. I think it is fair to count week 5 and 6 as flowering because pistils were popping out very early in week 5 if not before. So that makes this week four of flowering. I am going to assume 8 weeks rather than 7, so I think we have another 4 full weeks give or take a week. On that basis I am expect harvest week to be around week 12 or so. I am not fixed on this though, I am determined not to harvest this girl early. Day 55: Photos taken 00:00 9/3/23 Strong 24h of veg growth as predicted. Day 56: Existing leaves continue to swell. Stretch appears to be slowing. I've taken so many media this week that I cannot scroll down far enough to select a recent thumbnail. Probably Karen's biggest week in terms of changes. She is looking like she is going to impress. Height 39cm.

May, 29th If I open the Tent ist apure Peasure to see and smell them The Girls are very Thirsty like @FC_Cultivars said. Easy strain to grow...... They are sitting in 2 Different Growspaces, 2 are into my HAZELBOX, and one sits in the Big Floweringtent Watering every Day, Feeding nearly every other day

💙 Project Blue Tent – Week 3 Blue Waffle F1 – Pheno B (Folder 13B) Hello everyone, and welcome back to another update from Project Blue Tent! For those joining this journey for the first time, this project follows four individual Blue Waffle F1 plants from Zamnesia, each documented in its own diary from seed to harvest. Although they all share the exact same environment, nutrients, and growing conditions, every plant is allowed to tell its own story and reveal its own unique expression. Everything in this tent is built around the Zamnesia ecosystem, while the ladies are growing inside Plagron Premium Coco Growbags and being fed exclusively with the Plagron Hydro nutrient line. Today we’re taking a closer look at Blue Waffle F1 – Plant B. ⸻ 🌱 Week Three – Building Momentum Week three has been another very encouraging one. Plant B has settled beautifully into her coco home and has noticeably increased her pace of growth throughout the week. She began this update as a compact young plant, but over the last several days she’s filled out nicely, producing larger fan leaves and noticeably stronger apical growth. Her structure remains short and sturdy, with tight internodal spacing and excellent symmetry. The side branches are beginning to develop with confidence, giving an early indication that she’ll produce a well-balanced canopy in the weeks ahead. One detail that immediately catches my attention is how vigorous the newest growth appears. Every day the center becomes denser, showing that the roots are now well established and supporting increasingly rapid development. ⸻ 🌡️ Environmental Conditions One of the goals with Project Blue Tent is consistency. The entire ecosystem continues to perform exactly as intended, maintaining a stable environment throughout the week while the Phytonaut LED provides an even light distribution across the canopy. Average conditions this week were: * 🌡️ Day temperature: 27°C * 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C * 💧 Relative humidity: 67% * ⚗️ pH: 5.8 * ⚡ EC: 1.61 mS/cm * 💨 CO₂: approximately 450 ppm * 💡 Light schedule: 18/6 * ☀️ PPFD: approximately 350 At this intensity the plants receive plenty of energy to encourage compact vegetative growth without unnecessary stretching, while the stable environment allows them to focus entirely on developing healthy roots and foliage. ⸻ 🥥 Feeding Adjustments Coming from years of growing almost exclusively in living soil, growing in coco has definitely become an enjoyable learning experience. This week all four plants began showing a slightly lighter shade of green than I normally like to see. Nothing dramatic or concerning, but enough to tell me they were ready for a little more nutrition. Instead of waiting for deficiencies to develop, I prefer making gradual adjustments before the plants begin struggling. For that reason I increased the base feeding schedule. Current nutrition now consists of: * Plagron Hydro A — 1.6 ml/L * Plagron Hydro B — 1.6 ml/L * Plagron Hydro Roots — maintained at the previous dosage This small increase raised the EC slightly and should provide enough additional nitrogen and overall nutrition for the foliage to regain a richer green over the coming week. Every grow teaches something new, and coco rewards small, measured corrections rather than aggressive changes. ⸻ 🚿 The Unexpected Flood No grow is ever completely free of surprises. This week mine arrived in the form of an irrigation mishap. After switching on the irrigation system, one small mistake resulted in the tent flooding far more than planned. Thankfully, it looked much worse than it actually was. The first step was simply shutting everything down, grabbing a pile of towels, cleaning the tent thoroughly and checking that every component was still working correctly. Fortunately, because these plants are growing in coco, the situation remained under control. Coco retains excellent oxygen levels even after heavy watering, making it much more forgiving than traditional soil in situations like this. After allowing everything to dry back slightly, normal irrigation resumed without any visible stress to the plants. Sometimes growing isn’t about avoiding mistakes. It’s about solving them calmly when they happen. We’re already working on a permanent improvement for the irrigation setup, and I’ll happily share that solution once everything is installed in the coming weeks. ⸻ 🌿 Blue Waffle F1 – Plant B This phenotype is developing into a very attractive little plant. She has a sturdy central stem, broad leaves, and compact spacing between nodes, giving her a naturally bushy appearance even without any training. The petioles are beginning to show subtle reddish-purple pigmentation, while the newest leaves emerge with beautiful vigor before gradually maturing into the larger fan leaves. Although her colour is still a touch lighter than my personal preference, her posture tells the real story. Leaves are reaching upward. Growth is continuous. The plant looks happy. Sometimes plants communicate much more through their posture than through their colour alone, and Plant B certainly appears eager to keep growing. ⸻ 🔍 Looking Ahead Next week should be an exciting milestone. With the feeding now adjusted and the roots continuing to colonize the entire growbag, I expect noticeably faster vegetative growth and stronger lateral branching. I’ll continue monitoring leaf colour, growth rate and overall structure while preparing these ladies for the next stage of development. Every week they seem to reveal a little more of their individual personalities, and I’m excited to see exactly where Plant B takes us from here. ⸻ 💙 Thank You A huge thank you goes to Zamnesia for making Project Blue Tent possible, from these fantastic Blue Waffle F1 genetics to the complete ecosystem surrounding this grow. A sincere thank you as well to Plagron for providing the Premium Coco Growbags together with the Hydro nutrient line that is helping these plants thrive. Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving growers around the world a place to document their journeys, exchange ideas, and learn from one another every single day. And finally, thank you to every single person following along. Whether you’ve been here since the very beginning, recently discovered these diaries, leave comments every week, quietly observe from the background, or simply enjoy watching these plants develop, your support is genuinely appreciated. This project is about sharing the complete journey—the successes, the unexpected challenges, and everything in between. I hope you’re all having an amazing week, and I look forward to seeing you again in the next update as these beautiful ladies continue their adventure. Until next time… Growers Love, happy growing, and take care everyone! 🌱💙 P.S. One final shout-out has to go to the Zamnesia ecosystem itself. As messy as the irrigation mishap looked, the Zamnesia tent tray proved exactly why it’s part of the setup. Every drop of water was safely contained inside the tent, with absolutely nothing leaking onto the floor. What could have become a much bigger problem ended up being nothing more than grabbing a few towels, drying everything up, and carrying on with the grow. Sometimes you only discover how valuable a piece of equipment is when something goes wrong—and this week, the tray passed that test with flying colours. Huge thanks to Zamnesia for designing an ecosystem that’s ready for real-world growing, not just the perfect days. 💙🌱

Bud forming so fast!!!!!! Comparing to previous plants I growth in witch I used biobizz light soil I changed kind of soil in this one I’m using canna professional and the different is quite noticeable I’m really satisfied. I was worried that the small box I’m growing in would eventually make the plant suffer but it’s totally not, the plant is responding well!! Started with the maximum dose of bud ignitor by advanced nutrient. I’m really exited for this lady can’t wait to se the beautiful complete resinous buds.. keeping growing with LOVE 💚

Gran genética cultivada de manera totalmente orgánica. Sin grandes necesidades ni complicaciones en el cultivo, pero a tener en cuenta la poca tolerancia al exceso de nutrientes. Buen desarrollo en crecimiento, gran ramificación con distancia internodal media. Impresionante el cambio a color morado fuerte en las últimas semana de floración y gran cantidad de tricomas en las flores. Fuerte aroma afutado y sabor dulce, con una buena pegada. Totalmente recomendable.

Start Flush

Any questions just ask away guys 👍🏾

Harvest time, the flowers seem ready. The seeds were given as gifts and this was my first scrog. Given the high summer temperatures I thought I wouldn't even finish, I'm satisfied in the end. a couple of weeks to dry everything and then the fun begins.

This cheese need some more time to be fully mature

Ooohhhweee! This is a pretty plant! Perfect bud structure, great resin production, and the terps are sweet abnd earthy. One of my favs in the tent right now! ✌️🏻💚

Hey now, this week went pretty good, the buds are about done bulking up, and just waiting on the trichomes, I was really hoping she would be about ready, but I think she needs another week to week and a half total. The buds are rock hard, and super sticky. I have no clue what she will yield because the colas are not that thick, but there are definitely alot of them. I plan to squeeze her into rosin, and hopefully I can break the 25% mark for the first time with her, but we will see. Thanks for stopping by, I hope you enjoy the videos, Happy Memorial Day Family, Stay Safe and Blaze On!!!
