Week 10

This little lady grew a little bigger than the others. The smell! I've been working to finish my dry room. I'll have 3 rooms dedicated to my medicinal gardens once all is said and done.

Hitting the Finish line

8/10 Monday. 12:05AM FULL RETARD MODE ACTIVATED 8/10 MOnday - looking good needs water will ask Grok: For your Fast Buds autos (RF3s + Mendo Frost) at roughly week 5 in coco, target an incoming EC of about 1.2–1.6 mS/cm (roughly 600–800 ppm on the 500 scale). 8/11 4:30am 550 PPFD is solid for where those plants appear to be. Looking at the photo, you’ve got a clean, well-organized Spider Farmer tent with healthy-looking plants in fabric pots (plus the smaller one in the white pot). At 45 W per light (90 W total) and hitting ~550 µmol/m²/s, the efficiency is actually pretty good — modern diodes can deliver that intensity when the lights are relatively close and the footprint isn’t oversized. Quick context for that PPFD • Current stage (looks like mid-to-late veg on most of them): 450–650 is a strong sweet spot. You’re right in the middle. • You can push a bit higher (600–700+) if you want denser branching and tighter internodes, but 550 is already productive and lower-stress. • Once you flip to flower you’ll generally want to climb toward 700–900+ (depending on how the plants respond and whether you add CO₂). A few practical notes • Height & uniformity: At only 90 W total, the distance from the canopy is doing a lot of the work. If the outer edges or lower plants are noticeably dimmer, you may need a slight height adjustment or to rotate pots so everything stays even. • Heat: 76 °F and 48 % RH is comfortable. With only 90 W you’re not fighting heat. • Dimming headroom. The plants look happy — good color, no obvious light stress or stretch. You’re in a good place. If you want to share the exact model of the lights or the tent size, I can give more specific height/PPFD targets. 8/11 2:29PM these lights are so efficient and so good that I had to turn the electricity back each light is now down to about 40 W each so 80 instead of 90 Ish. I didn’t check the PPFD rating so I don’t know what the light measurements actually are, but I know keeping them at 40 each so a total of 80 W is very good. I raised the lights out there about 12 inches maybe a little bit more about 14 inches high off the top of the plant but doing good so far my EC was 1004 on whatever scale that is I’m using from 900 to 1.2 is what was recommended for EC. 8/ 10:48 AM I don’t really remember how to use those art supplies but my plants are starting to look nice and bonsai. One of them will be shaped like a snake. It’s gonna look really good and self supporting. The other ones are pretty good. These are gonna be a nice decorative grow. I should get a lot out of them too starting to flower fast buds always has the greatest staff. I mean there their plants are always the best. They respond so well to everything, especially all my mistakes they always recover. 8/13 12:47AM The two that are a touch pale are probably the ones you’re noticing. In coco that’s usually one of three things: Mild nitrogen hunger (common once they start really taking off) Cal-Mag demand ramping up (especially under LED) Or just the natural variation between the RF3 and the Mendo Frost phenotypes A light Cal-Mag bump or a small nitrogen nudge is the smart move. Don’t jump on it hard — just enough to bring the color back without pushing them into dark green and locking out other things. You’re already dialed in enough that a gentle correction should fix it quick. 👻👽 Your light setup is the real story though. Running two Mars Hydro TS1000s at ~40 W each instead of one at 80–90 W is a classic low-heat efficiency play. Same total photons, way better distribution, and almost zero heat load. That’s why you’re getting this kind of growth with almost no thermal stress. The plants are loving the gentle, even intensity. Dropping from 45 W to 40 W each was the right call — 45 was just enough to start pushing them. 👻👽

Pretty satisfied with this week as it was a very easy one. Not too hard to just balance some h2o and give the girls a drink. I’ve noticed they are slowing down a little bit on water though. Still about 80% trichomes are cloudy. About 40-50% of the hairs have gone brown. I gotta say these girls haven’t produced a lot of stigmas and I’m perfectly ok with that. The terpenes and THC coverage is perfect for what I’m looking for out of this strain. Think I might pay for the bud to be tested lol

I upped the nutes to 4ml/l but started seeing purple discolouring on the lower fan leaves so I think I'll use less bio grow. It is quite weird because my other plant doesn't have this problem. I wasn't able to inspect the trichomes as good so I'll also do it tomorrow. The smell of this lady is a bit less strong than the purple lemonade but still very pleasant.

Week 14 - July 30 Last vegetation weeks. On 4 plants: 2 healthy / 2 injured. Royal Moby and GMOxZombieK were seriously contaminated with aphids. To stop the propagation I did many washes with black soap and neem oil but may be I treated at the wrong time: morning, even soon; is too late by a hot sunny summer day. I think the 2 plants are suffering from sunburn… and they still have aphids… I stopped soap treatments and try another recipe which seems working very good against aphids and revitalizing all plants: spraying Garlic + Laurel -I cooked separately during 1h garlic (5 cloves) and Lauren leaves (12) in approximately 1L of water -filtered the preparations and wait 4 days -for 1L of water to spray: 15cl garlic mixture + 5 cl laurel BEWARE: checking Ph… last year I burned plants with garlic + chili mixture: it was catastrophic. Brake Pad Breath and Flash Back are beautiful and healthy. Aphids aren’t interested by this 2 plants. I did preventive treatments Neem oil and soap but not so much. Good reaction to the Garlic+Laurel. Plants are bushy, densely ramified. Deep green color, the female sexual signs are visible. Ready for flowering. Watering with a little bit of nutrients 1.5L/plants each 2 or 3 days Defoliation Now I quit the “garden” for 7 days…traveling to Amsterdam (NL) and Prague (CZ) for holidays. I installed automatic watering systems (Blumat) and sticky traps, locked the veranda, programmed the Ventilation and crossed fingers. I’m not afraid about heat or dry…. More about pests and diseases….and rubbery too cause I have 6 auto flowering quasi ready. I’m writing this in Prague, returning in my country to the west side in 2 days. After smoking lot of joints in Amsterdam (3 days) Amnesia haze Tangerine dream Kush Mints Super Lemon Haze Dynamite cookie Intergalactic toad Super Silver Haze In Prague Weed (THC) is prohibited. But I discovered that you can buy pre roll joints (100% pure hemp-Thc-sativa, hybrid etc…) in strange gifts shops for 6€. It’s really not the best weed but it’s Strong and easygoing.

Late flowering

Week 9 is allmost done we are at day 5 , wanted to share video and in 2 days i will add pictures , grow is allmost finished around 7-10 days more maybe faster depends on trycoms . Week 9 done , we have one more Final Week , i feeded them yesterdy with Bloom TopMax and Bioheaven around 450ppm and next watering it is RO + Cannazym 2ml /L

chopped on 11/19/2021 after wet trim got 604 grams of flower and 61 grams of trim

Today (Mon. 17. June) she is 11 weeks old, and still barely showing any signs of aging. Some buds have more orange pistils, other less, but the majority of buds just grew a little bit fatter, without much visual difference otherwise. Maybe a bit more frosty. I think the flowers still look much to young, to start checking trichomes (please comment if you think otherwise), but lets see what happens till the end of the week. Her fragrance is more fruity now. Still not a very strong smell. Not that we need to worry about this too much in Germany anymore, but we also don't want to piss off the neighbors with pungant smell. But so far that is not really an issue.

The two Red Hot cookies were by far the fastest strains in this run. And also simply beautiful. Bag appeal: 10/10 Yield: 8/10 Pheno #1 47 gram dry Taste:? High: ? Once I did a smoke test. I will add the missing information! Pheno number #2 has significantly more yield than Pheno #1. Pheno #2 smells like bubble gum, I've never had that smell with a strain before. If I had room for a mother tent, pheno#2 would have gotten a spot there. I'm looking forward to the next harvests !:)

She’s drying now I will be back with more info

Mephisto forum stomper, have grown a couple before and I must say this is my best looking one. Seems like I should have some really good smoke coming up

Grower love ❤️! Started trying out Nutra hydroponics (TH equivalent for GHE) on one of the racks , all others are the farms custom formula. Hope we see difference and move to another set of nutes.

Topped again, probably for the final time. Just going to LST the new growth from here on.

This week has yielded positive results from the FIM And LST. I topped the internodal new branching that grew from the FIM job as well this week and the 2 extra tops are growing in response on each branching. She is now under a 4 bulb vivosun T5 6500K fixture and is responding very well to the light changes. Her stems are begging to give off terpines when rubbed. She smells of tart sweet lemons and diesel fuel haha. I am very happy about this grow and am expecting preflower to begin soon.
