This solocup grow is moving along nicely. Shes flooring and starting to want to stack. Smells very strong of fuel. HOWEVER I did catch 4 different pollen sacks this week. I was able to remove all of them before they ever opened. I kmow the correct move would be to eliminate the herm. But, I would really like to make this grow work! I'm gonna sew if she will get thru another week without causing me any more problems.. if it herms any more, I will have to execute her! I have another of the same strain running in a 5 gallon pot without any sign of herm. Id definitely say this is streas induced from the tiny pot. These are big plants with big root systems regularly. Fingers crossed I can keep her going! Of course I xould have left this part out, but its the real world. And im trying to bring it to you like it is! These things happen sometimes!. Moved her to the HPS light this week from the T5.

Wat een mooie week heeft ze weer achter de rug. De toppen zijn aardig dik geworden en sinds ik haar alleen water geef zijn haar bladeren steeds meer geel geworden. Ben echt super tevreden met hoe ze zich ontwikkeld heeft tot deze prachtige dame. Dankjewel weedseedsexpress, echt een mooie strain. Ze ruikt heerlijk. Aankomend weekend gaat de schaar erin. Ik zal de aankomende dagen nog meer foto's uploaden. To be continued...

Woche 2 - Weiteres Wachstum und Vorbereitung auf das finale Umtopfen In der zweiten Woche wurde die Wassermenge schrittweise erhöht, um dem wachsenden Bedarf der Pflanzen gerecht zu werden. Ich habe die Bewässerung auf 300 ml alle zwei Tage erhöht, weiterhin ohne Düngerzugabe. Die beiden Sherbzooka Ladies ernährten sich noch vollständig von den in der Biobizz Light Mix Erde vorhandenen Nährstoffen. Am 20.04.2024 wurde die erste Düngerladung Canna Terra verabreicht, mit einem Verhältnis von 10 ml auf 10 Liter Wasser. Der pH-Wert des Wassers lag bei 5,9 und der EC-Wert betrug 1,0. Die Pflanzen zeigten keinerlei Symptome von Mangel oder Überschuss. Am 21.04.2024 wurden die Pflanzen abends in ihre finalen 9-Liter-Töpfe umgetopft. Die Pflanzen waren sichtbar gesund, kräftig und zeigten ein starkes Wachstum. Die durchschnittliche Temperatur blieb sehr stabil, und die Luftfeuchtigkeit wurde weiterhin manuell erhöht. Dazu habe ich täglich 500 ml Wasser in tiefen Tellern, verteilt auf vier Teller und fünf Handtücher, verwendet, um die Feuchtigkeit zu regulieren. Die Beleuchtung war fest eingestellt: Das Licht ging um 06:40 Uhr an und schaltete sich um 00:40 Uhr aus, was den Pflanzen einen stabilen Tag-Nacht-Rhythmus gewährte. Insgesamt verlief die zweite Woche sehr erfolgreich, und die Pflanzen waren bereit, noch weiter zu gedeihen. ENGLISH Week 2 - Continued Growth and Preparation for Final Transplant During the second week, I gradually increased the amount of water to match the plants' growing needs. I raised the watering amount to 300 ml every two days, still without any added nutrients. The two Sherbzooka ladies continued to thrive on the nutrients provided by the Biobizz Light Mix soil. On April 20th, 2024, the first dose of Canna Terra nutrients was given, with a ratio of 10 ml per 10 liters of water. The pH of the water was 5.9, and the EC level was 1.0. The plants showed no signs of nutrient deficiency or excess. On the evening of April 21st, 2024, both plants were transplanted into their final 9-liter pots. The plants remained visibly healthy, strong, and showed significant growth. The temperature stayed very stable, and I maintained the humidity manually by placing 500 ml of water daily across four plates and five towels, which helped regulate moisture levels in the room. Lighting was kept consistent, with lights turning on at 6:40 AM and off at 12:40 AM, providing a steady day-night cycle. Overall, the second week was a great success, with the plants ready to continue thriving.

Added a scrog net to help fill out the tent and it's doing its job. A lot of bud sites and really starting to take off. these seem to want to drink more than any other run I have had. I have been giving them 1 quart of water daily and they are loving it.

Day 70-77 (Day 71) Not exactly sure why but node spacing on bbb 6&7 is super tight still. Their stems are also harder and less bendy, almost like they’re root bound. Bbb #5 in my veg tent is looking bizarre and I’m at a loss for what to do. I’ve been looking up and asking around about the leaf crinkle and no one seems to know what’s wrong. Trashing a pheno of this would hurt. It could be a keeper too as I don’t think the problem is genetic. It’s definitely root bound but that doesn’t cause contorted new growth like that. I’ve concluded that it’s my dense soil coupled with root bound issues, overwatering and high RH. (Day 72) Later tonight I’m going to give bbb 5 a bath tub flush until it’s reading 200ppms, drain it well and then transplant into a 3g pot with lightly amended soil. I’m also going to give it a light defoliation. I don’t mind stressing the shit out of this plant right now because I won’t be flipping for another week at least. With the small container it will run out of amended nutes mid flower so I will hit it with a few synthetic feedings around then to test out the smokabilty and taste compared to organic nutrients. I might as well give the rest a good defoliation on the rest of the plants too. I will try to get most of what is under the trellis. (Day 73) I definitely defoliated #7 waaay too much. Since it’s tucked away in the corner and a really bushy plant I can’t train it as well as the others. I cut most of the sucker branches and the majority of the lower fans. This should prevent the need to defoliate at all until week 3 of flower. (Day 74) I’ve been reading that higher temperatures with a high RH can affect growth big time. It could be what’s causing all the crinkling and twisting. And now that the plants are in very late veg they could probably benefit from a lower RH. When I was running my temps around 74-78F and 70% RH I was in the perfect range. Now that I’m around 82-86F with the same 70% RH that could be what’s causing it. Hotter air holds more moisture than cooler air and proper vpd at 84F is around 75-80%. I’m going to turn up the speed on my carbon filter and set my controller to 75%. If I don’t see a difference or it gets worse I will drop to 65 and go from there. (Day 76) I finally got the lights raised up another 4 inches or so. It’s not much but it should help reduce the intensity and stretch the nodes more. I’m starting to think the super tight node spacing and droopy/contorted growth has more to do with something I’ve been reading about called ‘soil compaction’. Apparently farmers often deal with compacted soil in fields from running tractors over it all day. When I potted the plants I gave them a good little jiggle to compact the soil down further so I could fit a bit more in the container. I think this could be the culprit as they don’t seem to be drying out evenly. Even the plants in my other room are not drying out like they should and it’s probably from compacting too. With the addition of rock dust and dry amendments the soil can become sandy/clay like and retain a lot more moisture. Wish I would have added a few more liters of perlite and packed the soil a bit looser. Either way I need to get this problem sorted ASAP before I get root rot. Earlier in the season when I overwatered, I stuck a fish tank air pump into the soil and it aerated the soil enough to prevent overwatering. The only reason I discontinued it is because it didn’t have much effect in the 1.7g pots. I just ordered a 36w 6 way fish tank pump that is way more powerful. It was 50 bucks and I’m willing to take a gamble on it. It seems to be my only option at the moment because I can’t just repot. Worst case scenario I can use it for brewing compost teas if it doesn’t work. I’m not sure how well this will work in a giant fabric pot but it’s worth a shot. I’ve heard of people supplementing additional air into raised garden beds with great results. I’m picking off some of the new auxiliary branches to try and widen the node spacing. Growth is definitely slow and stunted but no signs of deficiencies. I just thought of another theory on the node spacing... and the more I think about it, the more I think it’s the mystery problem. I’ve been foliar spraying with 1-1-1 VeloKelp at pretty high concentrations 2-3 times per week. I have heard in passing that kelp and seaweed can somehow reduce stretch. A quick google search reveals that Ascophyllum Nodosum Seaweed and other marine algae extracts contain large amounts of hormones and auxins that reduce plant height and stretch. *facepalm* Guess I’ll stop that for the rest of the cycle. As far as I know there is nothing I can really do but wait for the plant to use up all those excess hormones and nutes. The recent 0-0-15 seaweed extract and 1-0-3 kelp meal I bought is derived from the same kind as the velokelp. I guess I won’t use it again until week 3 or 4 in flower. Tight nodes are very useful in flower but aren’t desirable at all in when trying to scrog in veg. Especially when they’re like a half inch apart. It slows the shit out of a grow. Vietnamese and biker gangs in my area used to grow SOG style and use a synthetic PGR hormone (meant for bonsai trees) called ‘paclobutrazol’ that would make the weed rock hard dense so they wouldn’t have to pay people as much to trim it. I’ve heard that in recent years they have made the switch to using kelp extracts because paclo is getting harder find and is not meant for food crops let alone smokeable crops. I’m ashamed of it but I have smoked pounds of PGR weed long before I knew what a PGR was. 🤷‍♂️ (Day 77) One more theory. Ever since raising up the plants up onto that shelf the root zone is probably significantly warmer and the bottom of the pot (where most of the roots are) drys out way quicker. It’s possible that the warmer root zone could not be holding dissolved oxygen at the proper rate resulting in that over/underwatered look. Or it could be that I’m not watering enough at once to reach the bottom of the pot where the roots are and it’s indeed under watered. I’m going to water in a gallon when I get my new air pump and see if that makes any positive change. If I see the new air pump making a difference, I will flip on the 21st of April. If I don’t see a difference, I will carefully untangle the plants from the scrog net and remove the shelf. That extra foot should make a massive difference with ppfd and will cool down the roots significantly too. I’m thinking about grabbing a simple soil/compost thermometer to check the temp of the medium. Better safe than sorry. Rough week. Hopefully everything get smoothed out in the next little while before I flip.

Hello growmies! Welcome to week four of An Epsilon Adventure! The girls are already transitioning into flower, I will get some photos of that later in the week. Massive thanks to both Shogun and Royal Queen Seeds for sponsoring this grow. Daily Updates: ### Week 4 Day 1 11:00 16/7 Removed some lower growth. ### Week 4 Day 2 23:00 17/7 Tallest plants were showing signs of heat stress so I have raised the light about 30cm more. Unfortunately this now means the lower plants aren't getting as much light as they could, so I have put the cycle back to 20h (I may even increase it). ### Week 4 Day 3 14:00 18/7 Photographed. ### Week 4 Day 3 19:00 18/7 Fertigated 2l. Okay these girls are now starting to concern me a little on the basis that they are supposed to grow to "50-70cm". At just over 3 weeks old the shortest of these girls is 53cm, the tallest (plant 3) is now 76cm tall. The worrying thing is they do not at all look like they are slowing down and as they are just pre-flowering now, the flowering stretch hasn't even started. So I need some genuine advice here now: Do I keep the faith and hope that they don't exceed the space I have? Do I top or super crop them now? These ladies are beastly, at the end of the week I am going to take some individual videos and more photos to really try and capture how magnificently well these girls are doing. I think I may be in the process of growing the biggest Epsilon F1's so far? Exciting to find out! ### Week 4 Day 4 21:00 19/7 James has assured me they wont go much more than 85 so I am not going to mess with them. They are due a defoliation at the end of this week though. Measured each plant as follows: Plant 1: 81cm Plant 2: 75cm Plant 3: 80cm Plant 4: 67cm Plant 5: 59cm Plant 6: 58cm Might photograph later or leave until tomorrow. ### Week 4 Day 5 10:00 20/7 Photographed and measured. Plant 1: 85cm Plant 2: 79cm Plant 3: 81cm Plant 4: 71cm Plant 5: 63cm Plant 6: 63cm So they've all grown about 4cm in about 13 hours, except plant 3 - which seems to have slowed down a lot. The top of plant 3 is also the most advanced looking in terms of pistils. I forgot to take close ups of the preflowers I will do that tomorrow. I have had to raise the light again today and it is now much further away than the younger plants than I would like. So I am thinking about adding a 300w LED into my 4x4. I have another 3 inches I can raise the light on the hangers, after that I can removed the adjustable handers and tie it to the top of the tent... that'll gain me another 4 or 5 inches. If I need to go higher my only option would be to set them up without the tent which is not an option right now. Hopefully they all just stop getting taller now and focus on flowering... but my gut tells me there's more growth to come. Watch this space! ### Week 4 Day 6 15:00 21/7 Measured. Average 10cm growth 29 hours. 😳😳😲 Plant 1: 96cm Plant 2: 89cm Plant 3: 88cm Plant 4: 81cm Plant 5: 73cm Plant 6: 72cm ### Week 4 Day 6 23:00 21/7 Defoliated. Only photographed plants 1 and 2 individually as I was short on time. Some lovely pics though! ### Week 4 Day 7 15:00 22/7 Fertigated. 2l Will photograph and measure later when they've had 24h since training. ### Week 4 Day 7 23:00 22/7 Photographed and measured: Plant 1: 102cm Plant 2: 93cm Plant 3: 89cm Plant 4: 85cm Plant 5: 76cm Plant 6: 75cm Well here we are at the end of week 4 and I am quite shocked by the growth of these girls. This strain averages 50-70cm in height. We have six plants here and every one of them is taller than the average... but would you just look at plant 1? She is a giant! 102cm!! Where will she stop? Next week will see the full transition to flower and we will start to see the bud sites developing. I have no idea at this point what the heights will look like at the end of next week. This is sort of new territory really, they weren't meant to get this big! --- Thanks for reading growmies! 👊 ========== Tent: 120cm x 120cm x 180cm Light: 600w HID Elite Dual Spectrum HPS + Angel Wing Reflector Air: 5" duct fan system with carbon filter ~300 m3/hour + RAM 9" floor fan + 4" intake fan Pots: Air Pruner Fabric Pots 30l - UGro XL Coco + horticultural grade perlite (~20%) Seeds supplied by Royal Queen Seeds https://www.royalqueenseeds.com Nutrients supplied by Shogun Fertilisers https://www.shogunfertilisers.com/en ==========

cleaning out one of my fish tank filters into the water I am going to feed this plant. Should double the size of the buds, lets see what it looks like next week. Also had first mini frost.
