So heres my germination method. Soak/shake seeds in 3% h202 solution for a few minutes and let sit until tiny bubbles form on seed coat. Rinsed in clean rain water. Then placed in HPO's GREEN-SUPREME used as seed soak solution. With a small amount of ANTI-MATTER for enzymes. Soaked 12hrs (mostly I just soak a few hrs) Straight into Gro-Dirt Super Starter soil. Watered seeds in gently with diluted DARK-MATTER solution to get the mycorrhizal species attached as soon as possible. Once they came up, 18-24hrs later, sprayed gently with a mix of GREEN-SUPREME & RHIZO-MOJO Just a small pinch of both in a 1ltr spray bottle. All this was done in a dark warm place on a heat mat. In a humidity dome. Happy growing friends

Week 7 Veg Report ๐ŸŒฟโœจ Hey Grow Fam! ๐ŸŒฑ Week 7 of veg is here, and let me tell you, the grow room is buzzing with life! Each of the girls is showing off her unique personality, and Iโ€™m especially stoked about the Papaya Zoapโ€”sheโ€™s really coming into her own! The scrog net is nearly filled out just how I wanted it, and I can feel weโ€™re so close to flipping to flower. The anticipation is real! ๐Ÿ˜ But before we get to flowering, letโ€™s take a dive into something that makes this grow so smoothโ€”ThinkGrow LED drivers and cables. ThinkGrow LED Drivers โ€“ Plugging Into Success ๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿ”— This week, I had a chance to work deeper with the ThinkGrow LED system, and honestly, itโ€™s like a dream come true for efficiency. Iโ€™ve been using the TLD-4 Four Spectrum Control Channels Model One LED Driver, and let me break down how it works. The drivers attach directly to the barsโ€”super sleek and no extra bulk. And, the connections? Itโ€™s a matter of matching the male and female connectors on the TDC-2 Daisy Chain Cord. Itโ€™s like a simple puzzle that snaps together perfectly. The TDC-4 cord takes it to the next level, connecting the top bars to the ICL-300 Inner-Canopy LED Bar, giving complete control and balance across every layer of my canopy. Why is this important? The driver-to-bar connection ensures that each LED bar is operating optimally, and the daisy-chain system makes it effortless to manage multiple bars without a ton of wires everywhere. Itโ€™s neat, efficient, and delivers even light distribution, which my plants are loving! ๐ŸŒž Are My Girls Ready for Flower? ๐ŸŒธ When I look at the plants up close, itโ€™s like theyโ€™re whispering, โ€œFlip me to flower already!โ€ ๐Ÿ˜† Their growth has been so vigorous, each filling out the space with character, and that scrog net is almost fully covered. So, Iโ€™m thinking weโ€™re super close to the big switch. Each plant has its own pace, but as a whole, the grow is looking fantastic! Room Stats โ€“ Tuning Into the Environment ๐ŸŒก๏ธ The TrolMaster system is still killing it with data and control, making it easier for me to keep everything balanced. Hereโ€™s a quick breakdown of the weekโ€™s environmental numbers, and a few jokes along the way! ๐Ÿ˜œ โ€ข Room Temps: Max 25.5ยฐC | Min 24.4ยฐC (Keeping it cool but not too chill!) โ€ข RH: Max 76.4% | Min 67.1% (Humidity stays right where it needs to be.) โ€ข CO2: Max 832 ppm | Min 420 ppm (Shout out to that magical 420! ๐ŸŒฌ๏ธ๐Ÿ˜‚) โ€ข VPD: Max 1.06 kPa | Min 0.64 kPa (All dialed in for peak veg mode.) Light Levels โ€“ All in the Details ๐Ÿ’ก โ€ข Max PPFD: 506 | Min 0 (because, you know, when the lights are off, itโ€™s dark! ๐ŸŒš๐Ÿ˜†) Keeping the light intensity balanced, and using the ThinkGrow LED system to spread that goodness across the entire canopy, Iโ€™m seeing explosive growth. Those PPFD levels are perfect for this stage! Water & Nutrients โ€“ The Lifeline ๐Ÿ’ง โ€ข Solution pH: Max 6.32 | Min 5.78 (Keeping it in the perfect range.) โ€ข TDS: 355 ppm steady (Every drop counts, right?) โ€ข Solution Temp: Max 23.5ยฐC | Min 22.3ยฐC (Keeping things cool, just like the grow!) And medium moisture? Itโ€™s a solid 100% thanks to my AutoPots and the genius of the AquaValve system. No electricity neededโ€”just gravity doing its magic. It makes my life so much easier, and the girls are loving the consistent hydration! No more worrying about under- or over-watering. Why Iโ€™m Obsessed with TrolMaster ๐Ÿ“ฑ I canโ€™t talk about this grow without shouting out the TrolMaster system. Every bit of dataโ€”whether itโ€™s temperature, RH, VPD, CO2, light intensity, or pHโ€”gets tracked and displayed in real-time on my app. Itโ€™s like having a grow assistant in my pocket, making sure I can monitor and adjust at any moment. The level of control I get with TrolMaster is out of this world, and itโ€™s helping me keep everything dialed in perfectly. Ready to Flip Soon ๐ŸŒธ With the Papaya Zoap filling out so nicely and the rest of the plants following suit, I feel like weโ€™re right on the edge of flipping to flower. Itโ€™s going to be a smooth transition, and I canโ€™t wait to see these beauties bloom! Stay tuned for next week, where we might just make that flip! ๐Ÿ˜‰ Environment Stats Recap ๐Ÿ“Š โ€ข Room Temp: Max 25.5ยฐC | Min 24.4ยฐC โ€ข RH: Max 76.4% | Min 67.1% โ€ข CO2: Max 832 ppm | Min 420 ppm (Seriously, shoutout to 420 again! ๐Ÿ˜‚) โ€ข VPD: Max 1.06 kPa | Min 0.64 kPa โ€ข Light PPFD: Max 506 | Min 0 (obviously, when the lights are off! ๐Ÿ˜œ) โ€ข Solution pH: Max 6.32 | Min 5.78 โ€ข Solution Temp: Max 23.5ยฐC | Min 22.3ยฐC โ€ข Medium TDS: Max 430 | Min 420 (I canโ€™t get enough of these 420 jokes! ๐Ÿ˜†) Final Thoughts ๐Ÿ’š This week has been a blast! Between the ThinkGrow LED system and the TrolMaster gear, I feel like Iโ€™m pushing the limits of whatโ€™s possible in indoor horticulture. Everything is dialed in, the plants are healthy, and the data just keeps showing that weโ€™re right on track. Shout Outs! As always, huge thanks to TrolMaster and ThinkGrow LED for the amazing gear, to Aptus Holland for their top-notch nutrients and Pro-Mix for the best soil i have used so far.

Seeds stared good after sitting in a glass of water overnight and placed directly in rock wool cubes in RDWC buckets. My 1000w MH HID is turned down to 600w and on a light rail mover about 24โ€ above seedlings.

Hey guys :-) First of all I have to say that all 5 strains I have in the tent from Amsterdam Genetic are beautiful genetics ๐Ÿ‘ . This week they were repotted into 8L fabric pots. When repotting, 2 g of Green House Powder Feeding Bio line were added per liter of substrate :-) . That's enough until the first flowers start ๐Ÿ‘. Watering was done twice this week with 0.8 l each. Otherwise everything was cleaned and checked and fresh osmosis water was mixed. Stay healthy ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ’š ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ You can buy this Nutrients at : https://shop.greenhousefeeding.com/us/ ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ You can buy this strain at : https://www.amsterdamgenetics.com/product/choco-cheesecake/ Water ๐Ÿ’ง ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿ’ง Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC.

So far nothing special, everything seems to be fine. She had some sunny days at the beginning, but weather got cloudy and relatively cold โ€“ this has slowed her growth for sure. But want her to adapt well to her conditions, so only put her inside in really cold nights. She got her endpoint directly on day 3, it's a 9L airpot. root was already at the bottom of the small starting pot. so maybe this stressed and slowed her too. Let's see how she will grow the next days. Video for this week will follow. Filming quality of my phone is not as good as would have liked it. But working on it.

- Sensi Seeds Research The Sensi Seeds Research breeding project has created eleven cannabis seed varieties. How? By combining new cannabis cultivars with a selection of strains from their long-established cannabis gene bank. For the first time in thirty-six years, they are opening the doors of the Sensi Seeds Research and Development Department. - 7 weeks in soil (week 7), this is where the ScrOG is a good method to keep on vegging your plants without getting too tall, saving space for the future stretch. Indoor growers are limited by the ceiling, this is the best way to keep on growing roots, more roots more fruits ๐Ÿ˜‰ Sensi Seeds strains are perfect, itโ€™s a pleasure to grow such genetics, everything is going like expected, each plants are doing their thing very well and dose respond marvelously to the plan, in time with no delays due to shitty or sick and weak plants ! ๐Ÿ‘ - For the beginners : Setup the first trellis on the top layer, then lower each corners to the bottom level, smashing the plants and the 2 main stems to the third node where the topping has been done (see previous weeks). You will gain approximately 30cm of growth, and you will be able to keep on vegging them without getting to tall, as mentioned more roots = more fruits, and you will avoid long legs (donโ€™t grow legs!!! They will have to be trimmed later on) where all the popcorns and small buds tend to grow. Remember, you are here to learn how to knock a ball out of the park, this method is complete, you avoid plants getting too tall and finishing with your buds too close from the light, killing all the essentials oils and terpenes (you will kill flavors and scents), you avoid to grow legs finishing with tall plants and just a ball head of canopy, you avoid small buds and popcorns by applying the incoming method in the next weeks where you learn how to clean your legs . Then , once you smashed the plants with the first trellis (youโ€™re supercropping by doing this bro) , the junction of the stalk (at 3rd node) will probably split in half, no worries it will heal by itself. You just need to put second trellis on top ! -Watering and feeding, that is the question ? ๐Ÿ˜„ Iโ€™m looking the leaves lol ๐Ÿ˜ They are around 2l every 4 days at this stage , Iโ€™m not watering until drains come out for the moment, Iโ€™m keeping all the good stuff inside the pots another week or two. (Iโ€™m looking for a job in the Cannabis industry as Master Grower, Mineralogist, Quality Control ๐Ÿž)

Oh well, not my (our) week ๐Ÿ™„ During the week the Ladys start to look a overwatered and I had no idea how this could happen ... Well, first I tried to rise temperature slightly and had the fans run more often to dry them out a bit quicker, did not work. Than I took them out of the System ... All together worked, at least it looked so ... for 1 day ... Yesterday I found the real reason. The Humidity Controller was broken ... During the night they had around 90% humidity and during the day only 25-30%, way to high and way to low. Replaced the Controller today, hope next week will start smoother ๐Ÿ™‚ Beside of this they made huuugggeeee progress, some nearly tribbeld in size and are around 5-6 Nodes now, will top them all next week when they recovered a bit ๐Ÿ™‚ Also added some Alfaboost to help them a bit. In the Videos the Vanilla Ice are in the right ๐Ÿ™‚ Thanks for your time, I hope you enjoyed this entry ๐Ÿ™‚ See you next week ๐Ÿ’š

Hey Cannafam, Well in life sometimes you have to perservere to get something you really want, this was my 3rd attempt at growing this gal, with the previous 2 runs being wrecked by the UK weather. This has been a stressful grow as i thought this one was going to end in tears also, but I Made It and im super happy ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ She came down a few days ago after more bad weather, a thunderstorm yesterday and its currrently raining as i write this, although i wanted her to run a little longer, it wasnt worth the risk and she should still give a nice heavy stone and is mature enough. She was quite a task to harvest and ive gone for a wet trim, a high leaf to calyx ratio on the buds and it took just under two hours! Wet weight is 111 grams although i expect this to reduce to around a third in the drying process and i've been left with a nice large bag of trim which will be sampled in the bong shortly ๐Ÿ˜Š Those beautiful dark purples are now on the drying rack indoors under the carbon filter on maximum to contain the smell of roudy gorgeous berries and its been a few days before i could open the tent,without it taking over the house! Ive got a dehmidifier running which has been set to keep RH at 58% and shes got about another week until dry. Once complete she'll be jarred with the 62% boveda humidy packs and burped daily on a four week cure. Il update once dry and cured a bit with more pics and a smoke report. Until then thank you to anyone following and your support,likes and comments ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ Stay safe and remember the Sun always shines in Space ๐Ÿ˜ŠโœŒ๏ธ ********** Update ********** Hey Friends, So my purple lady is now dry and has been curing for a little while, i pulled 32grams off her so just over an Oz which im really pleased with considering the issues with pests early on in the grow and the bad weather in late flower. I've also got quite a decent size jar of trim which will be slowly bonged and mixed with various hash ๐Ÿ˜ . This strain is one of my favorites and im so glad i tried again with her outside. I feel like this strain is a bit of hidden gem in the FastBuds catalogue but i would recommend growing her too anyone as she is definitely a purple jewel ๐Ÿ˜Š Thank you to all that liked or commented, I hope you've enjoyed this diary and love to all ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ

It is day 27 and Most plants starting to flower so they are getting a mix of grow nutes and bloom nutes All looking really healthy and seem to be thriving and certainly drinking a lot more . Some side branches have been strategically trained to try and make most of space and improve yield Day 28 given water will continue with grow and bloom nutes as still getting vertical growth which I am glad to see ๐Ÿ‘Œ

8/28: She's my last CC bean out of the original 7 that I received. (only ordered 5). I will not be ordering any more of them, but it is really good bud, so I figured why not.. I had 2 out of 3 seeds germinate last grow, and only 1 out of 4 this time....if they hadn't sent me the two freebies I might not have even been successful at all last time... I will FIM this one to try and increase the yield a little... She's in the 5gal tall black plastic pot with the white zip-tie loops on both sides.
