58 Days have passed in flower. Cheese left, Gorilla Girl right. The "Just water no pH" experiment has failed me around week 5 of flower. I have not done anything to keep the soil biology alive so thats probably the issue. Its all good though, it was fun while it lasted and definitely worth a try. I have let the soil dry as much as possible and then i watered in a tablespoon molasses per gallon water. pH'd to 6.6. I just need atleast 3-7 more days of flower and hopefuly the buds will mature a little more. I took a snip of the bottom leafs to check for trichomes maturity, those are the weakest of trichomes on the plants. ---1st time growing with FLO - Florian Living Organics.--- They claim that there is no need to pH when watering and that their living fertilizer is the only thing that i will need throughout the whole grow so i only need to mix with soil and just water with plain water. If this stuff works then it can simplify my future grows ALOT! Happy growing. 😎

Day 40: They got recoverd from overwatering. Leafs got darker because I gave them more nutrients, but gained early signs of slightly overfeeding ( Burnt tips on leafs). I had to boost them to fix it because there isn't much time with autoflowers. Now i only have to adjust my nutrient feeding with just 10 to 15% and its all good. They did stretch again, some growers love it but i think it is ugly and you will gain weak stems. I have to do something about the heat soon, because i want my buds compact and not fluffy. This will happen due lots of heat. I also have to start give them cal/mag, i saw first stages of deficiency. Not a problem when you are early with spotting it. Nice lovely buds so far Thats all for now Day 42: I have been defoliating alot to get the air between the plants. There are still some leafs and branches i want to get rid off, but i don't want them to stress out to much. Also i have killed of 23 smaller plants to make more space for the others. This is always painfull but stupid if you don't do this. If the plants didn't stretch that far due heat and low placed lights, this would not have been the case. I would still have alot of small nice plants. This was more the case for the gorilla's but it had to be said here as well since the Cherry Cola's will profit from it as well. See you guys next week!

Both plants are really surprising me. Good genetics. They had a horrible veg, in wrong soil, and these girl are frosty, dank, and chunky (1of2). I'd like to grow this again properly. Day 54 This girl is done! Took a few microscope peeps toward the middle and I see about 40% amber trichomes. Chopping tonight! Gotta check the other one (Christmas Tree). Hoping she has a few weeks left to bulk up, I don't know if she's worth trimming and I hope it's not a male! A few hours later... Checked trichomes on several spots of the bud and we have 50/50 clear to cloudy. Needs another few weeks.

Greetings, green enthusiasts! It's time for our Week 4 Veg Report, and the Epsilon F1 is flourishing like a botanical dream. The journey continues, and this week has been all about finesse, guidance, and a touch of foliar love. Our verdant queen is still receiving the VIP treatment in terms of training. Bending and guiding have become a horticultural ballet, a dance around the fabric pot, keeping her close to the soil like a green goddess in the making. It's like shaping a living sculpture, and our Epsilon F1 is responding with grace and vigor. Now, let's talk about a little foliar magic. I treated our emerald beauty to a luxurious Foliar Applied Liquid Fertilizer called NutriSpray. It's not just a foliar fertilizer; it's a blend of natural surfactants, stimulators, and microelements that create a symphony of nutrients. This foliar spray is like a botanical spa day, providing essential microelements throughout the growing cycle. Plus, it leaves a natural coating on the leaves, a protective shield that both nurtures and defends. It's like giving our Epsilon F1 a green hug from the outside in. Why, you ask? Prevention and pampering! NutriSpray acts as a preventive measure, ensuring our plant gets the nutrients it needs before any deficiencies can even think about setting in. It's like a proactive health plan for our green companion, ensuring a thriving and resilient journey. As we traverse through this week, the environment remains a haven of consistency. Room temperatures and humidity are the pillars of stability, creating the perfect atmosphere for our Epsilon F1 to stretch her leafy wings. And, of course, the nutrient banquet continues. The Aptus Holland super soil mix, with its Micromix Soil, Substrate Buffer Powder, and All-in-One Pellet, remains the culinary delight for our plant. Mycor Mix, the microbial sidekick, ensures the root zone is a bustling community of support for our growing queen. Shout-outs to Royal Queen Seeds for the genetic marvel that is the Epsilon F1, and a big salute to Aptus Holland for crafting nutrients that transform our grow space into a thriving botanical sanctuary. Stay tuned, dear readers, as we witness the unfolding saga of the Epsilon F1. Happy growing, and may your gardens be forever green! As always thank you all for stopping by and for supporting me on this journey, i am super passion about growing and fell blessed to have you all with me on this new journey

It was fun to grow in the back yard. I wouldn’t grow again though. They get stressed and stunted very easily. Don’t smell. Low yield. Low potency.

Week 5! End of Veg? Preflower? Flower? Very eventful week. Throughout this week at ever watering the plant got a round of LST+Tucking. At this point I'm trying to maximize the amount of growth sites getting light exposure and also trying to keep the canopy relatively flat/level. Full strength nutrients per normal. About this point I was getting really worried about space, particularly giving the genetics of this plant tend to the larger side. Impulse purchased a net and on 9/17/25 the ScrOG net was installed and I did my best to use it to curate the canopy. ~placed about 8" from the top of the pot and besides that I just gave it my best go, not exactly sure if I did it right or not. Towards the end of this week pistols become pretty apparent on most of the plant! Some very light defoliation was done, just a couple of oversized fan leaves that weren't getting much light anyway. LED was set to 100% (and slightly raised) per manufacture specification towards the end of this week. Wouldn't be a first grow without a scare of the week. 😵 Last week we had an accidental topping, this week we have roots growing all outside the pot. On 9/16/25 I noticed the root growth out the bottom of the pot. My wildly unintelligent drain pan setup used bows to space the pot up and they collected runoff, leaving the roots with a nice bath of runoff water to grow into. Learning every week, this week I learned about air-pruning. Went ahead and cut these root growths off, purchased a 1$ Lowes runoff pan, and returned three bowls and a nice Pyrex dish back to the kitchen. About the same time of my root issue, within the next 2 days a good amount of leaves had slight yellow tips...

Getting hot if it keeps going up to much more will need to set something up to cool the tent a bit . Other then that every going nicely.

This strain is very forgiving to say the least and would definitely grow it again. Only 10.5 grams away from 2 oz. I could’ve definitely gotten more out of these girls if I didn’t have two other plants jammed in a 2x4 grow space. I’m happy with my results. This strain is very loud with hints of lemons and gas. Highly recommended!

Hello fellow grower Week 2, seedlings developments are performing very well under the Mars Hydro FC6500. Raising the light just a bit, using the same distance that I was using with the Mars Hydro SP3000. _________________________________________________ Transplanting into 1.8l pots, they will last 4-5 weeks, perfect intermediary size just to make watering easier and to keep the control on it. Cellmax BIO Soil needs around 5 days to become active and alive, seedlings can show some little deficiencies like Cal. and/or K. _________________________________________________ One of the LEMON TREE is showing some lil deficiency, but otherwise all the others are growing very well. Got my 16 plants plan, but I have added more seeds to pop out. I got plenty enough light to grow some few more on the side. _________________________________________________ 31/08 Water + BIO RootBooster 4ml/1l pH 6.5 03/09 Transplant Water + BIO RootBooster 4ml/1l pH 6.5

A big hello to all the cannabis growing gardeners...and all the other visitors that came across my grow journal. This week i need to change the reservoir again, the plants drink solution just as I add fresh water the EC stays at 2.7 and i need to add PK and Calmag so that's why. The weather outside is very cold this whole week around -18 degree Celsius at night...this made my reservoir water go under 15 degree Celsius. Since i ran the Spider Farmer UV lights i noticed some purples on my cannabis plants i think it's their doing....i run it now for two weeks the UVs ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The SE 7000 is hanged at 40 cm. over the canopy and runs at 520W.

Hey Growers, end of week 6 from seed, end of week 1 of flower :) Plant #1 is looking healthy and has grown tremendously. I previously had them in a 24x24x48 grow tent but after seeing how much plant#1 was growing I went ahead and purchased a bigger tent 36x36x72. Light is about 17 inches away from the plants right now. Might have to do some LST so the top leaves don't receive too much light. P1 is filling up with pistils, looks like buds will soon begin to form :) I have not been able to figure out Plant#2 gender. It has different charateristics from plant#1. Earlier in the week I noticed P2 was not growing in height and the leaves were starting to look pale. Light is currently set to medium low 140 Lux X100. I reduced it to 100 Lux and after a few days it began growing again and its gaining back its color. P2 has given me minor problems since day 1 but its looking better now. Changed light cycle 12hrs / 12hrs I had issues trying to maintain humidity levels at 45%-55%, I might need to purchase a stronger dehumidifer cloned two plants and they are beginning to grow :) Its been an exciting experience so far, everyday learning something new about these plants. I sometimes stand and just stare at my grow tent analyzing little details about them trying make sure they are in healthy condition. My wife complains because I spend too much time with them lol. I know once these plants get more mature she will show more interest in them. I am learning as I go, any recommendations would be greatly appreciated, stay tuned Week 7 coming up #HappyGrowing #FirstGrow #MysteryStrains 😊

She is going all out right now. Nothing slows her down. I did a heavy defoliation and she just kept going balls to the wall. The silica blast has really toughened her up.
