FERMAKOR BARREL MIX – BASE IN USE (Testing on the Fantasy Feast girl we pulled out of another diary https://growdiaries.com/diaries/274722-grow-journal-by-yan402 ) (FERMAKOR BASE SYSTEM KOH VERSION diary https://growdiaries.com/diaries/278391-grow-journal-by-yan402) (Urea & Micros on the way — first week running without them) 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 💧 30 L Barrel – Current Working Mix 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 Step 1 – Calcium Nitrate (Part A) 7 L warm water (~35–40 °C) → added 45 g Calcinit, stirred until fully clear. That’s the calcium + nitrogen backbone for the feed. Step 2 – FERMAKOR PK Base (Part B) 15 L water in the main barrel → added 30 ml FERMAKOR PK Concentrate, mixed well. This forms the main P + K part of the formula. Step 3 – Combine Solutions Slowly poured the Calcinit mix into the barrel while stirring — no reaction, still crystal clear. That confirms the mix is stable and precipitation-free. 🌿 Step 4 – FPJ / FFJ Batch Added 30 ml homemade FPJ (fish + veg batch) ≈ 1 ml/L. Color shifted to a light-amber tone — looks alive and active. 🍋 Step 5 – Citric Acid Balance Added 1 tsp citric acid after everything was blended to fine-tune pH and help chelate micros later on. 📦 Step 6 – Top Up & Check Filled to the 30 L mark with plain water → pH tested with drops, showing yellow-green — roughly 5.8 – 6.0 range. Nice clean look, stable smell, no residue. 💧 Current Base Ingredients (Active Mix) Warm Water ≈ 22 L total Calcinit 45 g → N + Ca foundation FERMAKOR PK Base 30 ml → P + K support Citric Acid 1 tsp → Chelation + pH balance FPJ / Fish Emulsion 30 ml → Organic enzyme booster Result: clean amber mix, mild and balanced. I’ll let this version run for a week before adding anything. 👀👀👀👀👀👀 Observations and changes 👀👀👀👀👀👀 27.10.25 VW27 noticed some min burnt tips so I decreased Calcium Nitrate 45 to → 40g, decided to add two more elements micros and Epsom salts just to make sure they got everything, Fetrilon Combi 1 (Micros): 0.5 g, Epsom salts: 8 g 28.10.25 VW27 she seems devoid of any deficiencies, seems ready for the flip to 12/12 02.11.25 VW27 girl is looking good so I decided to stop making daily videos and do a standard once a week update. 09.11.25 aVW28 7 days since flip,stretch in full swing, first pistils showing, leaf color deep and healthy. Slight tip burn early week → gone after pH stabilized. Feed stayed clear, no residue, roots clean and sweet-smelling, did what I hope is a last cleanup and pruning🎥 10.11.25 VW29 added Phosphoric acid pH down to the schedule for flowering stage. 14.11.25 FW1 FERMAKOR PK Micros 40 → 50 ml 23.11.25 FW2 got some burnt tips, observe and act accordingly in case it worsens, diluted by 25% for this week. 05.12.25 FW3 about 2 weeks ago Calcium Nitrate 35 g → 25 g, FERMAKOR PK Micros 50 ml → 60 ml 🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱 🌿Day to day tasks & actions 🌿 🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱 07.12.25 FW3 – Fed 5l of #1 → 2l runoff 08.12.25 FW4 – Fed 5l of #1 → 2l runoff 09.12.25 FW4 – Fed 5l of #1 → 2l runoff 10.12.25 FW4 – Fed 5l of #1 → 2l runoff 11.12.25 FW4 – Fed 5l of #1 → 2l runoff 12.12.25 FW4 – Fed 5l of #1 → 2l runoff 13.12.25 FW4 – Fed 5l of #1 → 2l runoff 14.12.25 FW4 – Fed 5l of #1 → 2l runoff 💧💦💧💦💧💦💧💦 🌱 Nutrients in 30 L #1 Veg – FERMAKOR 💧💦💧💦💧💦💧💦 Calcium Nitrate (Calcinit / Nitcal): 45 → 40 g → 35 g → 25 g = 1.50 g/L → 1.33 g/L → 1.17 g/L → 0.83 g/L = 207 ppm N / 253 ppm Ca → 184 / 225 → 161 / 197 → 115 / 141 PK Concentrate (FERMAKOR Base): 30 → 40 ml → 50 ml → 60 ml = 1.00 → 1.33 ml/L → 1.67 ml/L → 2.00 ml/L → balanced 1:1 P:K + light micros (from extract) Home-made FFJ/FPJ (Fish + Veg): 30 ml = 1.00 ml/L Epsom Salt (MgSO₄·7H₂O): 8 g = 0.27 g/L → ~26 ppm Mg + ~35 ppm S Fetrilon Combi 1 (Micros): 0.5 g = 0.017 g/L → Fe 0.7 ppm · Mn 0.7 ppm · Zn 0.3 ppm · Cu 0.3 ppm · B 0.1 ppm · Mo 0.02 ppm Phosphoric Acid (pH down) + Citric Acid (chelation): as needed → First set pH with phosphoric acid, then add a little citric only if you want extra chelation Target pH: 5.8 – 6.0 (drop test yellow-green) 📦 TOTAL: Liquids: 60 → 70 → 80 → 90 ml per 30 L = 2.00 → 2.33 → 2.67 → 3.00 ml/L Solids (CaNO₃ + Epsom + Fetrilon): 53.5 → 48.5 → 43.5 → 33.5 g per 30 L = 1.78 → 1.62 → 1.45 → 1.12 g/L 💧💦💧💦💧💦💧💦 YouTube Link: https://youtube.com/-m8h?si=A7x4Zlr2kj-_ga31

Stacking up like crazy! These girls are super short and super thick. Insanely strong smell and if you even brush up against a bud site you will absolutely STINK

12/8 Soil still damp from last water, nutrients today or tomorrow, bottom leaves are yellowing, trichomes are forming on colas. 12/10 Fed nutrients today she got enough water for runoff, top inch soil was dry and she just looked hungry as hell, looking to defoilate the yellow leaves pictured, 26 inches today, top cola is 5 inches from light other colas are at least 10 inches from light, now i know why people LST!!! Next grow for sure. seeing some yellow tips on the top fan leaves.. nothing major, but understandably so. 12/13 watered today not too much but top soil was dry, more defoliation of yellow fan leaves, temps and humidity are back up, she smells like skunk so far, hard to describe, definitely getting chunky and filling up the main cola👍 12/14 high humidity 90%, leaves are looking glossy, more defoliation of bottom fan leaves

She completed her flowering in 60 days, reaching about 10-15% Amber. She only received water in the last 2 weeks and has been dried out for the last 2-3 days. Her buds are quite big and sticky. The smell is kushy, not a fruity one at all. Let’s see how long it takes to dry. Keeping her in the dark at around 19-20 Celcius and around 60% Humidity.

Straight up a very nice easy to grow strain so far you guys just dam this is crazy how fast she grew .. The stems are still stretching right now and the smell is very nice when you run the stem .. The team over at @originalsensibleseeds has some bomb genetics going on here . Cheers

This week marked the start of the flowering phase as the light cycle was switched to 12/12, officially initiating bloom 🌸 For the first few days the plant continued normal vegetative growth, with the stretch becoming noticeable after about 3 days. By the end of the week the plant had already gained noticeable height and the early stretch phase was clearly underway. • Stretch beginning after ~3 days • Canopy mostly even with only one branch slightly leading • First few white pistils visible toward the end of the week Light intensity was increased to ~750 PPFD ☀️ and the fixture was raised slightly to maintain proper distance as the plant began stretching. Watering increased slightly as the plant entered the flowering transition: • ~3L every 2–3 days based on pot weight 💧 Feeding this week: • 1x BioTabs Bio PK • Otherwise water + BioBizz CalMag Environment remained stable: • ~25°C temperature • ~55% RH 🌡️ The plant remained healthy with balanced structure and deep green foliage. The topping from earlier veg clearly paid off, as the canopy remained fairly even going into the stretch phase. Overall this week marks a smooth transition into bloom with the first signs of stretch and flower initiation 🍩🔥

the girl has already matured :) tomorrow will be the crossing and renewal :).

Getting closer and closer to time, the smell is strong and they are covered in sticky loveliness🔥🍈

So... still rate of growth is not up to scratch and I dont know what is going on never the less they look nice and healthy, done a little bit of training this week but I just feel like I'm at a loss with the growth rate if any body has and pointers I'm all ears!? Thanks for reading and happy growing!

Inizio fioritura.prima settimana bene bene bene.. continuate così 💪✌️🙏 Una delle 3 papaia è diventata Maschio.peccato.....

Plain RO water

Atentxs al próximo seguimiento

unbelievable, the performance of her in the still mixed weather in germany is awesome. the buds are starting to smell and are getting thicker. i'm a bit afraid that if the weather continues like this, mould will form. fingerscrossed that it doesn't happen. i give her a mix of biobizz root, grow and bloom every two days. I have removed the LST. from time to time I cut off the large leaves.

Week 13. Looks good, smells good, doesn't strech, just getting fatter, ... the fatter the better) Trichoms on some leaves are getting ember already. That's a surprize, as I initially expected it to flower 9-10 weeks, and so far she is through 5 weeks of floweri ng. Anyways, not foing to rush so far, I believe there's more potential in it. Waterring /feeding is the same, 1 liter every 2 days with 5ml of plagron flowering smthn) Thank you for checking!

shes doing well going to switch to 600w hps in next couple of days still stretching but slowed now

she finally showing pistels after three weeks(21) days in 12/12 tent.she is Thriving in its tiny pot dwc hydro spam.she is about 16 inches tall was 4 inches 21 days ago .She has a min of 5 weeks to go still hope she slows her stretch some to stay in the baby bears bed for light distance.

So this is the end of week 2 flower and these girls are now be entering week 3 with all being fine and healthy these girls are on the stretch 🌱 Ni issues as of yet allthough I did have too move these girls too another property for safety and they have handled the move well with no issues. Drinking alot now in their coco especially the wedding cheesecake girl where as the 2 orange sherbet at the back are very happy slowly plodding along, on the stretch too as can see. Scrog did help but as moved these girls it's a few inches tighter so more colpacked but will be lollipopping and defoliating all the scraggly lower bits through this week 3. Starting too get that hint of smell now too definatley from the orange sherbet I can tel 😍 Stay blessed see you next week 💚

Everything is still alive thankfully and smells fuckin tremendous. The pictures were taken on day 49 or 50. I'll probly start flushing some of them over the next week the citradellic are lookin close. They kinda all look close even tho I expected some 70 dayers with the mostly sativa crosses but I gotta get in there and check the trichs.
