Greetings my dear Jungletamers, So a major surprise came when @MarsHydroLED contacted us and asked if would like to try out their new SP 3000 light. Being a fan of Mars Hydro for years, we of course accepted their offer. We are totally in love with this light. I was when I saw it in another grower's setup and was in awe of its output and results. So with much pride and thankfulness for the presents the Universe bestowed on us, in the form of MarsHydroLEDS offer and the bountiful harvest of the last grow, (which I am thoroughly enjoying btw, such a great weed to have grown ourselves) we start out on a new adventure that we can't wait to share with you. With many lessons learned from the previous grow, a mighty producing strain in the form of Expert Seeds Gorilla Glue #4, a.k.a Expert Gorilla's and a tweaked super soil mixture, we are setting out to hopefully get over a gram per watt, preferably 1.5. The Setup A 4.5 (140 cm) x 2(70) x 6.2 (200) grow tent, giving me a .98 m2 workspace. This space is customized to my needs. A standing fan will provide airflow through the whole grow, a top fan will help guide cooler air past my lights onto the grow. 3 56 ltr pots will be the home for the plants when they are 2 weeks old, up to then in smaller jars. The Light The leading role and star of the show will be played by the Mars Hydro SP-3000, so kindly provided by MarsHydroLED, which we will test and review here and I might say, endorse. I'm very careful with who I endorse and support these days, but a company with that many wins in design, I'm talking ever since their first range came out in 2009 these guys have been raising the bar for the whole industry, I did not hesitate to support this leading brand. If you want to compete with these guys, you better bring some quality AND affordable pricing. Why do I endorse the SP-3000 without ANY hesitation? It is seriously THE BEST light on the market in this price range and size group. It has an enormously effective output in U/Mol and with 30% less energy waste comparing to older LED lights. Prove me wrong! And with a company holding a considerable market share selling thousands of units every month, competing on price and quality, one would think that customer service would suffer. Of course, also Mars Hydro is not perfect, but check the sheer amount of people that not only praise the light but also the service received, should the light somehow not perform up to par. It is this dedication to their customer base that made this company have a fanbase... Yes, a fanbase with a website and a wiki. So if you are looking to buy new lights, check out the END OF SUMMER OFFER at the Mars-Hydro Global Store on Aliexpress: https://marshydroled.aliexpress.com/ 👈 Check their offers but also their score, they ship from a warehouse near you so you don't have the extra import fees!! Cut out the middleman and have a deal on these lights!! At the moment I write this in August 2021, the lights are 408,20 euro when sent from Germany to the rest of Europe, that's 40 euro cheaper than the other Mars outlets, BUT EVEN 60 euros cheaper than ordering at a grow store!! The Strain: Experts Seeds - Expert Gorilla feminized regular. Don’t let the name fool you because Expert Gorilla is suitable for growers of any skill level. However, you do need to be an experienced smoker because Expert Gorilla is one of the most potent strains on the market. Lineage: Chem Sis x Chocolate Diesel x Sour Dubb Popularity: Extremely Popular Flavor/Aroma Profile: Chocolate, Earthy, Fuel Yield: 400 g/m2 Stress Tolerance: High resistance to disease Potency: 24% THC Flowering time: 58 - 63 days The Soil: Those who saw my Monstercropped Gelato #33 grow (you should see it if you didn't, I'm so proud of that grow), know about my super soil and organic nutrients/ permaculture tea combo that starred in my previous diary. Because of the great results, we are going to use the same recipe, adjusted some more with some new ingredients that will complete the mix and give an even more sustained super soil buffer. 20% Atami Bi-grow (very similar to ocean forest) 20% Atami worm castings 20% Atami Coco Coir 10% Hydrocorn 10% Peat powder 1 cup Fossil seaweed chalk 1 cup bonemeal 1 cup bloodmeal 1 cup Microlife 3-4 teaspoons of epsom salt 3 cups of activated biochar (activated with our own permaculture tea) I just made layers, starting with hydro corn on the bottom to aid airflow/run-off. On this I started layering the coco coir, Bi-grow, peat, castings, and amendments in a way that the more mature the plants get, the more phosphorous and less nitrogen they will find. Every time I made three layers, I would mix them by hand. This way we simulate natural soil, which consists of humic layers, composting plant waste, fungal and microbial life, and nutrients from fossilized sources. The Nutrients I will start with just adding 6.4 PH water, although this soil should buffer ph itself and regulate, after 4 weeks, I'll slowly be adding: - Biobizz Grow - Plagron Alga Grow - Biobizz CalMag - Biobizz Flower - Plagron Alga Flower - Biobizz Topmax - Melasses The Tea Some of you might remember the permaculture tea from my previous grow, I have a short video in my harvest page showing how we make it), it will star again in this grow. - (Rain)water - Comfrey (whole plants) - Dandelion leaves - Roots and leaves from the earlier grow - Minor periwinkle (Finca minor) is a plant we have in our garden, it contains an alkaloid that is associated with increased brain function but also is a light toxin for wee beasties and other unwanted guests like gnats (who hate it). - When flowering I add some wood ash to this mix Thank you for checking in on one of my grows again! Thanks for all the love on my previous grow, check it out if you haven't seen it!! Hug Bud

Apparently everything is going well, there was a slight burn from a mineral MKP insertion; to be honest, I confused the quantities and thought the MKP was NitCal, hence the slight burn on the leaves, but nothing too critical, no signs of astringency or hermaphroditism, new pistils are emerging and buds are resin-producing more and more. Despite everything, I remain satisfied, but I understand that I have a lot to improve. Until next time.

The temperature had some fluctuations, and the plant got a bit more humidity a little bit of mold on a few fan leaves.. a bit too much water consumption

Start of week 6 of flowering for 4 Getting really frosty !!! Coming to and end of week 6 of flowering Tangie ,gg4,sweet creme and glueberry all.started.to.get flushed!!! Exciting.for.chop . The hazes are all looking amazing . Forgotten cookies is amazing =). Just added grapey walter and douple grape. =)

time for a watering update of my top shelf elite genetics autoflower testers of black valium autos and ancient haze autos in this watering I gave them emerald harvest nutrients I used the nutes at half strength of the recommended dose the water was ph. to 5.8 I made 3 gallons and split it between all the plants I did not use all of it just enough to get some run off I took the excess run off out with a turkey baster Cali Pro A and B at 2.5ml per gallon emerald goddess at 3ml per gallon honey chome at 2ml per gallon root wizard at 7.5 per gallon I also gave some Cheshire grin liquid worm castings to only 2 of the 4 autos they got 90ml to the base of the plant these plants are in day #25 from sprout

Hello Growers & Tokers! Rooooots. Don't forget about them! At the beginning of the week they all got transplanted into their final pots, 11L fabric pots. Medium is Light Mix from BioBizz. Synergy from Grotek nutrients was blended in the medium to help out the roots. Let hat mycorrhizae do it's thing. I'll let them settle in their new home then I'll be topping them to widen that canopy out. Take care out there and happy growing!

June 16th, 2022 - plant had some living soil amended into substrate, plant was fed on the 14th, defoliated a bit, extra support installed due to the punishing winds of the location. More Rain Heat and Humidity are scheduled. See where it goes… she looks Healthy

Day 23: Second feed today, baby responding pretty nice to her juices :) Day 27: Had to reinvent something, her aunties are on flowering, thus had to allocate her the attic 🙏

Tag 63 Blüte die 10. Woche beginnt und die Damen sind fast soweit aber für es sind immer noch zuviele Trichome klar und die ersten werden erst Bernsteinfarben. Würde ich WPFF also Waschen und Liverosin pressen wäre jetzt oder in paar Tagen Ernte. So wie es aussieht dauert es also noch ca 10 Tage. Meiner Erfahrung nach sind jetzt die entscheidenden Tage wo noch viele sekundäre Stoffe wie Terpene und Cannabinoide geildet werden. Der Duft ist Fantastisch bei jedem öffnen des Zeltes. Da der Sommer mit der Hitze eine Pause macht kann ich niedrigere Temp. halten und schone noch die ganzen flüchtigen Terpene. Also ich habe wirklich viel Glück mit dem Wetter gerade. Die letzten Tage habe ich angefangen nur noch mit Wasser zu gießen, angepasst mit Canna CalMag auf (EC 0,5)(PH 6,0-6,2). Nur der mineralisch gedüngten Frozen Tropicana Cherry mische ich noch 2ml/L Canna Flush ins Gießwasser um Salze rauszuspülen. Den Drain halte ich gering. Es reicht mir wenn ich nur 5% drain habe (der EC ist da bei 1,4 und PH 6,1). Besser könnte ich es mir nicht wünschen. Canna Terra hat wieder einmal mehr als perfekt funktioniert. Die Ladies trinken auch noch viel auch das zeigt mir das Sie noch wollen und es noch zu früh wäre sie zu ernten. Jeder grower kennt das ja am Ende trinken sie nur noch sehr langsam und sagen dir ja Buchstäblich das es soweit ist. Ich finde es sehr wichtig die Pflanzen zu beobachten und nicht irgendeinem Plan stur zu folgen. Da wir in paar Tagen in Urlaub fahren muss ich wohl die Ernte und das aufhängen der Pflanze meinem alten Growbro anvertrauen genauso die Vorzucht des neuen grows. Ich hoffe das die Damen noch nicht trocken sind wenn ich wieder da bin. Aber da will ich hier keinen zulabern. Ihr könnt euch ja vorstellen wie das ist erade in den letzten Tagen nicht da zu sein. Zum Glück kann ich mich da auf meinen Kumpel verlassen er hat auch schon viele Jahre Erfahrung und ja meinen Grow Style ja von mir gelernt und fast 1 zu 1 übernommen.. Ich hoffe die Fotos und meine ersten Videos gefallen euch. Sagt mir gerne ob ich weiterhin Videos aufnehmen soll oder interessiert euch das weniger. Ich wünsche euch allen gesunde und glückliche Pflanzen und ein schnes Wochenende

Day 35 ​The canopy is developing rapidly, and the plant has adopted a dense, bushy form. The central stem is thick and sturdy, a sign of excellent early care and strong genetics. The leaves are huge—the classic fan leaves are wide and a deep, healthy green, indicating that it’s efficiently capturing light and is well-fed. Every node is tight and stacked, with new auxiliary branches shooting out quickly, ready to become major bud sites once flowering begins. This is exactly the kind of vigorous structure that i want 💦💦💦Watering💦💦💦 11.10.2025 – Watering 0 ml 12.10.2025 – Watering 0 ml 13.10.2025 – Watering 1000ml 14.10.2025 – Watering 0 ml 15.10.2025 – Watering 0 ml 16.10.2025 – Watering 0 ml 17.10.2025 – Watering 2000ml

Day 22 - Rolling into week 4 looking mean and green! 💪 I need to make a decision on what kind of training I want to dish out to this lady. She's growing a bit faster than her tent mates. Day 23 - Always experimenting - today I begin my first mainline! I've already built the foundation by allowing the plant to grow to 6 nodes, as recommended by the tutorial I followed by the brilliant Miss Nebula Haze @growweedeasy. My next step is documented here in a video, as I take my lush, happy, healthy plant, and give her the kind of haircut that makes you want to storm out of the salon without leaving a tip. 😂 I even managed to get in my signature branch snap early in the game - being held together now with duct tape. 🤦‍♀️ In all seriousness though, I'm thrilled to be trying this out, despite the agony of cutting down my plant to nothing but a stump and antennae. I've seen some great growers create some serious masterpieces using this method, and damn it my curiosity is taking control! Here's to learning something new! Day 27 - Came home from vacation to find that my plant had hulked through the duct tape that held her snapped branch together... I guess she's doing well. ☺️ Over the course of the past few days her branches have gotten notably thicker! 💪 Day 28 - Now that each new main stem has grown out, I removed all the growth tips from below the 3rd node on each side. I left the fan leaves in tact to give plant access to extra energy as she pushes through this intense training. I softened the branches with my fingers, very slowly, to tie down my new main stems horizontally across the net basket. I took a sterilized x-acto knife to then top each of my two main stems at the 3rd node on each side, leaving me with a beautifully symmetrical base to my masterpiece.

Primera semana de crecimiento de estás red cookies gelato, fue una semana sin complicaciones, humedad relativa en 40% y temperatura rondando 20-23 grados, tienen un color espectacular boludo, estoy deseando que llegue la época de florar. Volvemos por aquí las proximas semanas guachines . 🇦🇷🇪🇸 Muchos humos para todos 💨💨💨

Incredible strong smell of melon, citrus , wood, earthy, it's wonderful!😁 She has no problems at all, the buds look thicker this week. Trichomes are milky white and translucent with some trichomes starting to have honey like head appearance. Not ready yet I will give her more time.💪👍

Hi all buddies! First crop from hydro nft growth. Growth went well, I had some management problems in changing nutrients from veg to bloom which delayed the harvest for a week or two. Sensi Seeds' Skunk # 1F is incredibly resistant to mold and insect attacks, very close internodes ensure low height and compact buds. Unfortunately I chose the mother phenotype wrong, I found the lowest as I wanted but I lost the fatness of the buds present in other phenotypes, but the game was worth the same and I am very proud of it! I collected after 94 days of flowering, the last 72h 20kg ice cubes in the tank and total darkness which the last 24h without irrigation. After cutting I hung the whole plants in the tent for 24 / 48h 19 ° C 55% HR. Two days of wet trim to 8 girls and I hung their colas in the tent to continue drying. With a girl i tried dry trim but i will avoid next time. After a week in the tent I cleaned the colas and removed all the sticks, I placed everything in airtight bags in the refrigerator for 5 days 12 ° C 65% HR (daily check). Now dark storage room at a temperature of 18 ° C 65% HR. At the last weighing a few days ago it was more than 500g, from now it does not lose any more weight. Next week I will take pictures of the weigher and the finished harvest🍀🍀🍀 target!!🍀500g dry/cured🔥 Thank you GD community you are precious for everything, criticism, advice, curiosity, thanks 💚🌱✊🏼 Awesome people here on GD🔥🔥🔥

I am dropping a Gorilla Jealousy F1. Seed was scuffed and dropped in water. Soon as I get a tap root I will place it in the rockwool.

420Fastbuds FBT2301 Week 1 Week 1 of the start of veg for these 2 FBT2301 plants. So far I've switched to 18/6 light cycle and keep a 75'f day temp with a 65'f night time Temps. I give them 500ml of straight well water every other day. I did to a pm spray and didn't realize my lights would be coming on as soon as they did. Lesson learned it'll burn the leafs. 😆 All in all Happy Growing
