🍋 Project Blue Tent – Folder 14 Pickled Lemon Haze F1 – Pheno A Week 2 – The Journey Begins Welcome back to Project Blue Tent, my newest adventure focused on exploring Zamnesia Genetics while growing in Plagron Premium Coco Grow Bags using the complete Plagron Hydro feeding program. Every phenotype has its own diary because every plant deserves to tell its own story. Although all plants share the same environment, nutrients, and care, each one develops its own structure, rhythm and personality. This diary follows Pickled Lemon Haze F1 – Pheno A from her very first days until harvest. ⸻ 🌱 The Environment This project is being grown under an 18/6 light schedule, allowing the plants to enjoy long, energetic days followed by six hours of uninterrupted darkness to recover and continue building strong root systems. The entire grow takes place inside the Zamnesia ecosystem, creating a stable environment where every variable can be controlled consistently. Current environmental conditions remained very stable throughout the week: • Temperature: 29°C • Relative Humidity: 68% These warm, humid conditions are ideal for encouraging vigorous vegetative growth while helping the young plants establish themselves before accelerating into larger development. ⸻ 🥥 Why We Sink the Pots into the Coco One detail that often raises questions is why the starter pots are placed directly inside the Plagron Premium Coco Grow Bags instead of remaining outside until transplant day. There are several reasons behind this approach. The surrounding coco acts as a natural thermal buffer, helping keep the root zone at a much more stable temperature than a pot exposed directly to the air. It also helps maintain consistent moisture around the root ball, preventing the edges of the starter pot from drying excessively while avoiding large fluctuations between wet and dry cycles. Another advantage is purely practical. Because the pot sits inside the grow bag from the beginning, the final transplant becomes almost effortless. The plant never needs to adapt to a completely new environment, and the root ball slides directly into the cavity already prepared for it. Finally, shaping the cavity around the starter pot creates a perfectly fitted transplant hole. When the moment arrives, the root ball drops into place with almost no disturbance, eliminating air pockets and ensuring immediate root-to-coco contact. It’s a small detail, but one that greatly reduces transplant stress. ⸻ 🌿 Feeding Program The first irrigation after transplant introduced the plants to the Plagron Hydro line. Current nutrient solution: • Plagron Hydro A • Plagron Hydro B • Plagron Hydro Roots Solution parameters: • pH: 5.83 • EC: 1.26 mS/cm • Water temperature: 23.1°C This mild feeding provides everything the young roots need while encouraging rapid colonization of the fresh coco substrate. ⸻ 🌱 Root Development One of my favorite moments this week was checking the root system before transplant. The entire root ball was beautifully colonized with bright white, healthy roots wrapping around every side of the substrate. Exactly what we hope to see. The roots had reached every corner without becoming root-bound, showing excellent vigor and confirming that the timing for transplant was absolutely perfect. Strong roots today build strong flowers tomorrow. ⸻ 🍋 Pickled Lemon Haze F1 – Pheno A Even at this early stage, this little lady is already beginning to reveal her personality. Her internodal spacing is compact and symmetrical, producing a balanced structure with broad, healthy leaves reaching confidently toward the light. The stem is thick for her age, showing good structural strength, while new growth is emerging quickly with a vibrant green color that indicates she’s comfortably adapting to her new home. Leaf posture remains open and relaxed throughout the day, another sign that both the environmental conditions and feeding program are right where they should be. Everything about this plant suggests a smooth, stress-free start. ⸻ Looking Ahead Now that the transplant is complete, the focus shifts entirely toward root expansion. Over the coming days, I expect the roots to begin exploring the entire Plagron Premium Coco Grow Bag, setting the foundation for vigorous vegetative growth before training begins later in the cycle. The stronger the underground development today, the stronger the canopy will become in the weeks ahead. ⸻ Final Thoughts Every project starts with small plants and big dreams. Watching a healthy seedling settle into her final home is always one of the most satisfying moments of any grow. It’s the stage where patience matters most, because the work invested now will determine everything that follows. Pickled Lemon Haze F1 – Pheno A has made an excellent start, and I’m excited to see how her individual character develops as this journey continues. ⸻ 🙏 Thank You A huge thank you to Zamnesia for the incredible genetics and for providing the complete ecosystem that makes this project possible. Special thanks to Plagron for supplying the Premium Coco Grow Bags and the Hydro nutrient line that will feed these ladies from start to finish. And finally, thank you to the amazing GrowDiaries community. Your encouragement, advice, and shared passion make every grow even more rewarding. I hope you’ll enjoy following this journey as much as I enjoy documenting it. Growers Love and see you all in the next update! 🌱💙

I'm thinking about starting lst soon although I may do a small amount of HST first and prune a few fan leaves. I am VERY amazed and impressed at the speed that these are growing. Check back next week to see just how fast she grows! & remember its 4:20 somewhere!!!!

Starting to flower and add some vigor. Guava seems to be all over the place rn so really hope she turns out nice. Just some leaf and stem bending atm. Never had a plant finish in 8 weeks so waiting to see how this one goes 🙏 Happy growing 🌴

Tutto ok

This week I Realised I'd used the wrong feed chart so I was over feeding 🙄 the leaves burnt on a few plants so I've only fed them water this week and will resume feeding from next week. There are still no pre sex pistils showing but it can't be far off now. As soon as pistils start to show I'll start feeding bloom feed. I've turned the light up to 30000lux using HLG's online calculator for converting a lux meter/app reading to PAR , my light is 3000k which with lm301H Led's works out @ 465ppfd which is about the max the plants can use in veg without supliments co2. Here's the link for anyone using quantum boards, it has different spectrum calculators. It's been really useful setting my light up so big thank you to HLG (even though I have a Geeklight) and a thank you to the GML show on YouTube for bringing it to growers attention (I love that weekly show, so much info and perspective) https://horticulturelightinggroup.com/blogs/calculators/converting-lux-to-ppfd Hope everyone's staying safe and growing 😎

1/22/2024 - Day 22 veg: today is the 1st day of week 4, and every is going well. Lightly watered just to keep the top soil moist, but my moisture level further down is still good. She is showing some very minor tip burn, but nothing I'm concerned about. 1/27/2024 - Day 27: was out of town the last few days, and she is definitely starting to flower already. Seeing some very minor tip burn, but other than that she appears healthy. Not as big as I would have like to see her get before flowering, but it looks like the issue with the foiler spray stunted her a bit.

WEEK 7 My plant is now well into flowering, but hasn’t stretched much so far. That might be due to the large number of shoots that have developed. Still, there’s already a decent amount of visible buds, which makes me really happy. I expect she’ll gain a bit more height, but overall she’ll likely stay compact and bushy. I’m satisfied and excited to see more of what’s to come. This week, my lamp ran at 600 PPFD, and I watered once with plain water and once with nutrient solution.

08/11/2018 Flowering started,and plants are stretching for sure! Having trouble uploading pics please be patient. Feeding organic big bloom this week at full strength 💪 as it has worked well for these girls in the previous two years. 08/16/2018 Fed Espoma Tomato Tone, and watered in with, Fox farms big bloom, as foliar,and drench. Helping to transition into flowering. See you in a few days for week 2 of flower. 08/17/2018 Day 6 of week 1 flowering, I can smell them at 90" away. New pics in morning.

Hi Guys the triple is doing well and i think next week orthe next after i will change the light schedule and start the flowering what you think??is that a good choice?? sorry for the bad quality of the pics thx everybody Daniele & Claudia Italians from Greece

So, eventful week. Prior to putting my seeds into my system, my light and rdwc system was left on as I was dialling in the growing environment before placing the seeds as a final home. My only issue was I had a light leak BEFORE putting the foil top covers on the clay pebbles. Long story short, I got algae which ended up turning to root rot. I spotted it very swiftly and did a res change adding beneficial bacteria to the system along with the base products of remo nutrients. A few days later new growth and recovery is taking place. Day 16- Fully back on track, new roots shooting out into the water and the growth rate has picked up as it should. Foliar feeding twice a day for a little boost until the root system establishes a bit more. Huge changes in just a day. Can't wait to see what a week's growth looks like. Really loving the sunset/sunrise feature on the trolmaster, something I got to experience watching recently! Watching by closely to make sure everything stays in track. Stay tuned for the next one 😉

The thrips are gone. It is taking more nutrients it’s more hungry these days still cutting off lots of defoliation lots of buds growing in so I’m having to keep her close eye and make sure I take out anything that’s not worth spending energy on buds are getting huge but it’s not growing any taller it’s going to be a short stocky plan

Hi guys, some surprises this week. We are now on transition to Flowering period, i have already seen some pre flowers, really smalll. Everything is doing really great , just one plant is with some signals of high fertilization, but nothing critic, its the most small of them. I m watering the plant almost every day, yesterday ( 19/04) i watered with 500ml of water mixed with Bio nova autoflower supermix, and RQS bloom tablets, like 1/8 of tablet per liter. They are drinking a lot now. I will keep every day watering with around 350 - 500 ml per plant, i will vary that according to the plant size and the conditions of the soil. In terms of heat, its doing ok, i added now one more ventilation inside the tent to keep more air moving around the plants. This week, i have also done more LST trainings, really small adjustments, i will do more LST when i start to see big flowers. My plant on the balcony suffered a lot because of my cats ahaha, she is now inside on a window , is recovering but slow growing, she stretched because of lack of light. Today i also decided to switch my main LED 600 W to only red light, only bloom, i was on full spectrum but i will keep for some days on red to give more height to the plant , i also improved the light distance to 70 cm, before was 60 cm. Now the height is around 15 - 20 cm, i want to improve a little the most small ones. Next week, flowering week 😜 I have one doubt , should i defoliate some fan leaves? or that procedure is only on advanced bloom phase ? And should i Keep the Full spectrum, Veg and Bloom LED on, Blue and red. ?

2 rez top ups last week and a fully change today. Girls are thirsty and starting to really full out which is exciting me beyond examine. WG 1 and the Haze 2 are some of the best trees I've grown. The Wedding Gelato strain is really easy to grow and to be honest hasn't needed much from me apart from some LST and defoliation in weeks 1 and 3 of flower. Smelling soo good and sticky as hell, definitely going to make bubbke hash from the sugar leaf and press that shit.

Que pasa familia, vamos con la primera semana de floración de estas GG4 feminizadas de MSNL. Vamos al lío, lo primero comentar, que me dieron gato por liebre, porque esto tiene pinta de rudelsris que tira pa atrás… Van en macetas de 7 litros negras. El ph se controla en 6.0 , la temperatura la tenemos entre 24/20 grados y la humedad ronda el 50%. El ciclo de floración puse 12 horas de luz, el foco está al 60% de potencia. De momento van creciendo a buen ritmo y tienen un buen color, ya tiraron pelos blancos, estaban bien enraizadas al realizarle el trasplante se notaba la abundancia radicular. Agradecer a todo el equipo de Agrobeta por el envío del kit gold series para esta temporada, soys unos jefes 🙏. - os dejo por aquí un CÓDIGO: Eldruida Descuento para la tienda de MARS HYDRO. https://www.mars-hydro.com Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

These girls are doing amazing. Top dressed a little late so they got a little hungry. Other than that doing awesome. Pollinated and producing seeds as planned. I can't wait to grow all these crosses out.

Nothing to say really Most of the upper buds are very dense but the lower ones are still soft Trichomes still clear, i have a shitty magnifier 30x. Smell is strong and now the smell have a more cannabis smell mixed with blueberry
