It was a busy week full of events. I got them a 600 watts HPS light and microbes to help them grow faster. I finally started the trellis netting to even the canopy and get more from the lights and I also spray the plants again for bugs. I found out that I've been using powder nutrients on my reservoir and that's probably why I've been getting floods two or tree times a week and now the valve is open only when I'm there, because I'm sick of cleaning and I took that little sick plant out. My cats have her now.

Hello all and welcome to the much anticipated beginning of vegetation for these five Epsilon F1 Autos from Royal Queen Seeds. Allow me to introduce Ally, Normani, Lauren, Dinah, and Camila. All five girls have pushed put their 2nd node (3 fingers) and node 3 is on the way out. I expect all five girls to take off from here, and so the next seven days are going to be big. I will start fertigation today. For comparison purposes the Day 1 here means Day 1 of veg. For Ally, Normani, and Lauren this is day 11 since breaking ground, for Dinah day 10, and for Camila it is day 9. For the rest of this grow I will increment days from here but it's really easy to work out days since breaking ground as it is a simple matter of day + 10, 9, or 8 respectively. Day 1: Fertigated 2l. Day 2: Right ok. Can you actually believe this response in 24h? The poor girls were STARVING. Wow look at the change in color! Wow look at the growth!! Ally is most advanced, Camila least. It is fascinating so see them develop! They are growing faster and faster now. So let us talk about the elephant in the room a little bit. Phenotypes. At the moment there is absolutely no evidence to suggest that this crop will be anything other than uniform. Nevertheless there are some clear differences in some of the girls. So let's have a look shall we: Ally (center), Normani (closest to the middle purple basil), and Lauren (opposite side to Normani): These three girls are not quite identical, but it is a pretty challenging game of spot the difference. Dinah: Okay so Dinah is coming in noticeably darker than her sisters, with a little more tendency to claw, and with quite a bit larger and more angular serrations. Her first leaves are also a different shape. Camila: Little Camila had a twin, but I killed her with some overzealous tweezing before I realised what I had. She came in with only one cotyledon, and she came in last. Her first leaves are quite different to the rest of Fifth Harmony. She is also showing slighty more narrow leaves. She is lastly also very slightly more pale than her sisters. Are these phenotype differences? I mean in terms of the environment, feeding, watering, substrate, temperature, light, airflow... well these girls are all in the same pot, so unless I am particularly haphazard in my mixing and fertigation (which I can assure you I am not) I do not think it likely that these ladies have significant enough environmental difference to account for these quite clear visual differences. I am absolutely fascinated to continue to witness this, and it has only now occurred to me what a great privilege it is to be able to grow the world first F1 cannabis hybrids, and what an astounding honor to be one of the very first hobby growers to do so! The fact that RQS made this happen by not only supplying the seeds and other merch and goodies, but also sending expedited international shipping so as to fit within my arbitrary timescales is almost unbelievable. When these guys (on their website) say that it is their belief and mission to forge the path to worldwide legalisation, they are not hollow corporate whispers, it is their core of being. Cannabis everywhere is truly blessed to have such a worthy and proactive ambassador. Bravo RQS! I have adjusted the timer such that the main tent is now getting 20/4 upped from 18/6. After monitoring DLI at 18/6 for a week I am unhappy with the overall level but because of the varying heights of the plants I am limited in what I can do in adjusting the light height. Some areas were only getting 20 DLI. So I have rearranged to have the taller plants on the edges and the lowest in the middle and doing it this way all plants are getting between 35 and 50 DLI at 20/4 - although one or two cola tips here and there are getting 55. Will monitor for a week. Day 3: Well look at this growth again!! These ladies have responded to feeding really well. Fertigated 3l. Day 4: Growth is accelerating fast, these ladies will be ready for their first training soon. I am starting to formulate an idea what to do. I am thinking of topping Ally and LST on the rest. Day 6: Fertigated 3l. Ladies growing fast now. Will soon be time to start training. However! The secondary nodes are developing strongly. Hmmm Day 7: Fertigated 3l. Defoliated the three fingered leaves from Ally and tucked the five fingered under other plants. End if week summary: Well when they said "hybrid vigour" they were not joking. Look at day 1 and day 7 side by side after approx 6 days into veg growth. Wow.

We have last days. I want to switxh lighta off for 72 hours and than chop. She looks readdy

Day 65 - Pics/Vids..... Everything looks good......stress bent them into position and defoliated ..... lots of flowering now..... ..... hadn't actually measured them for awhile, and updated the height, 44 cm .... tested out the lights higher, 40cm away, and seemed to slow down growth... so moved em back, 20-25cm... watering is the same, bottom saucer feeding, 850-1000 ppm dutch master one flower 5-8ml/lt.... actually using about 12-15ml / 1.8l....... Day 70 (10 wks) - Pulled em both out of tent, flushed em and trimmed em abit, took some pics/vids in the sunshine. ...... the soil started smelling bad, - stale, moldy, damp, soil smell..... so i did a full flush out on both.... noticed afew gnats, been afew since the start, but haven't really been many.... i'm going to try out a UV bulb, and also a usb uv led bug trap ..... just ordered them.... posted a pic of both... see if they are any good..... 😎

Last week was fantastic, they grow a lot, they are now in full flowering. im dealing with the management of the new and bigger colas, im thinking of putting the same orange fence on top and using it as a ScrOG trainer, ill try this in the next few days , ill put more pictures with the testing.

Slow and steady wins the race Juan has slowed right down Finally the leaves are starting to turn, this is the latest in flower the leaves have lasted me. Shame she isn’t fattening up

Week 6 Veg Update: The Scrog Is Filling Up! 🌱✨ Hey Grow Fam! 🌿 It’s Week 6 of Veg, and let me tell you, the ladies are thriving! The scrog net is doing its job perfectly, creating a beautiful and even canopy. The plants are spreading out, taking up all that space, and loving every moment of it. The combination of great genetics and smart techniques is really paying off! The Magic of the Autopots & AquaValve System 🚰 Let’s dive into one of the systems making this grow so much smoother: Autopots and the AquaValve. This gravity-fed, zero-electricity system is a lifesaver! It’s built on a simple yet genius design, where the AquaValve allows water to flow into the tray beneath each pot. When the water level reaches a certain height, it automatically stops, letting the plant absorb all the water before refilling again. This ensures that the plants only take up water as they need, preventing overwatering and keeping the root zone perfectly hydrated. Plus, the fact that it operates with no electricity? It’s a win-win! 🌊 I can’t stress enough how this system makes growing more effortless. It allows me to keep a consistent moisture level in the medium without constantly having to check or water manually. With gravity working for me, it’s a set-it-and-forget-it system! 💧 Precision-Controlled Environment With TrolMaster 🌡️🌿 And then there’s the TrolMaster system, which has become my right hand in this grow. The app is packed with so much data, helping me keep everything dialed in without lifting a finger. I’m able to monitor and control every aspect of the environment from my phone, ensuring my plants are always in the perfect conditions to thrive. Here’s what the numbers look like this week: • Temp: 26.2°C • Humidity (RH): 70.6% • CO2: 757 ppm • VPD: 0.87 to 1.0 kPa • Light: 423 PPFD • Solution pH: 5.83 • Solution TDS: 445 ppm • Solution Temp: 25.2°C • Medium TDS: 445 ppm • Medium Temp: 26°C Thanks to the TrolMaster app, I get all this data in real-time, making adjustments as needed. It’s amazing to have such control and insight into the grow room, especially with how easy it is to navigate the app. Everything from CO2 levels to VPD is dialed in, and I can tweak the settings wherever I am. Truly a game-changer! Looking Forward 🌟 As we move closer to the flip, I’m thrilled with how things are progressing. The plants are healthy, strong, and ready to take on the next stage. The scrog is filling in beautifully, and the environment is locked in for success. I’m so excited to see how they bloom! Remember, it’s all about patience and consistency. By letting the systems work for you and paying attention to the details, you can achieve incredible results. Thanks for following along on this journey! 🌿 Stay tuned for the next update—things are about to get even more exciting as we inch closer to flower time.
