Greetings, fellow cultivators! Welcome to the Week 7 Report on our magnificent Epsilon F1, where the journey of green greatness continues to unfold with each passing day. Prepare yourselves for a detailed and immersive exploration of our botanical wonder as we delve deep into the heart of her flourishing beauty. Let's begin with a momentous decision: the Day 21 Flower Defoliation. With careful consideration and a keen eye for detail, I embarked on this transformative journey, gently removing select fan leaves to allow for increased light penetration and airflow. It's like giving our Epsilon F1 a botanical makeover, revealing her true splendor beneath the foliage canopy. This strategic pruning ensures that every bud site receives the attention it deserves, setting the stage for a bountiful harvest of epic proportions. But that's not all! As we bid farewell to the defoliation process, it's time to release all the bindings and restraints that were used to guide and train our green goddess throughout her growth journey. With a sense of liberation and pride, I untangle each tie, allowing our Epsilon F1 to stretch her leafy limbs and reach for the heavens. It's like setting a bird free from its cage, unleashing her full potential to soar to new heights of botanical glory. Now, let's talk about the environment. The TrolMaster controls have been instrumental in maintaining the perfect climate for our Epsilon F1's growth and development. From temperature and humidity to light and CO2 levels, these precision instruments ensure that our green queen receives the optimal conditions for flourishing. It's like conducting a symphony of growth, orchestrating each element to harmonize in perfect unity. And of course, we cannot forget the nourishment that sustains our botanical masterpiece. The Aptus Holland nutrients continue to be the lifeblood of our grow space, providing a balanced diet of essential macro and micronutrients. From the Micromix Soil to the Substrate Buffer Powder and All-in-One Pellet, each component plays a vital role in nurturing our plant to perfection. But let us not overlook the unsung heroes behind the scenes. Shout-outs to Royal Queen Seeds for bestowing upon us the genetic marvel that is the Epsilon F1, a testament to their dedication to excellence in breeding. To Aptus Holland, our main sponsor, whose unwavering support and innovative nutrients have propelled our grow to new heights of success. To TrolMaster, for providing the tools that empower us to create the optimal growing environment for our plants. And to Grow Diaries, the platform and community that fosters collaboration, knowledge-sharing, and camaraderie among growers worldwide. As we bid adieu to Week 7, let us revel in the glory of our Epsilon F1's progress and look forward with anticipation to the weeks ahead. Happy growing, dear readers, and may your gardens be forever green!

Week 02 Introduction This week has been a bit of a struggle. Had my first experience dealing with slime and brown algae. But I think adding enzymes and increasing the beneficial bacteria helped to fix the issue. Also experienced nutrient burn for the first time. My nutrient solution strength got as high as 671 PPMs. So backed it down to about 430 PPMs during the end-of-week reservoir change. Also cut Hydroguard (expired?), CaliMagic, and Superthrive from this grow. Now she's still stunted, but is starting to recover. Hopefully... [START OF WEEK 02] Day 01 - Monday - 08/10/20 - Total Days: 008 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: Still looks a bit yellow. But getting larger! --- Solution strength was at 248 PPMs. --- Just topped off with a bit of distilled water --- PH went up to 6.1 so PH'd down to 5.8 --- Ran the top feed for a bit to wet the hydroton. - [2130]: She's looking even more yellow now. --- Even the new leaves are really yellow. --- Decided to add more base nutes. --- Added 4ml of Sensi A --- Added 4ml of Sensi B --- Now at about --- Solution Strength went up to 304 PPM. --- PH was at 6, --- Also raised the water level a bit more. --- I really hope it's a nutrient deficiency and not an over-watering issue. --- Please live! Day 02 - Tuesday - 08/11/20 - Total Days: 009 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: Looking less droopy. But still yellow. --- Decided to do a reservoir change. --- 4.5gal of distilled water --- 8ml of Sensi Grow A --- 8ml of Sensi Grow B --- 8ml of Voodoo Juice --- 4ml of B-52 --- 4ml of CaliMagic --- 4ml of Hydroguard --- 4 drops of Superthrive --- PH'd down to 5.8 --- Solution strength: 302 PPM --- Since I didn't want to risk over-watering the rockwool, I did not to do a top feed, may do one tonight after the sleep cycle (lights are still set to go off at 10am and back on at 4pm). --- As I was doing a reservoir change, I noticed that the tubes and bucket were a bit slimy. Didn't really stink or anything. Is this normal? Maybe due to the Hydroguard and Voodoo Juice? --- I hope she gets better soon! - [2215]: Getting larger! But still yellow. --- Also can see a root growing through the net pot! Tiny little thing but it's there! Will have to start dropping water once more appear. --- After looking over a few DWC diaries using AN nutes, seems like my solution strength is still too low. Most around this stage average around 500 PPMs with about 4ml per gallon. --- Top fed for a minute to wet the top of the hydroton. --- Solution strength went down to 263 PPM. --- Added 8ml more of Sensi A --- Added 8ml more of Sensi B --- Now base nutes are at 16ml for 4.5 gal of water. --- PPMs went up to 411. --- Still lower than 500 PPMs, but that's okay. --- PH was at 6. Not sure if I should adjust PH using AN nutes. So going to not ajdust unless PH goes above 6.1. Day 03 - Wednesday - 08/12/20 - Total Days: 010 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: Looks like more root growth! --- She still looks yellow. But leaves are perky. --- PH was at 6.2 so lowered down to 5.8. --- Solution strength was at 394 PPMs --- Since roots are still growing, I decide to lower the water level a bit. Now water level is a bit below the net pot. - [2200]: Root is getting longer! --- Slime is returning. Not sure why. --- Solution strength: 357 PPMs --- PH: 6.1 --- Decided to add an enzyme along with more beneficial bacteria to hopefully cure the slime. --- Added 16ml of Sensizym --- Added 5ml of Hydroguard --- Added 8ml of Voodoo Juice --- New solution strength: 430 PPMs --- New PH: 6.1 --- Top fed for a minute. --- This slimy residue is really freaking me out! I hope the added enzymes will help eliminate the slime. --- Going to do a full reservoir sterilization/nutrient change over the weekend. Please survive until then girl! Day 04 - Thursday - 08/13/20 - Total Days: 011 ----------------------------------- - [0930]: I think the enzymes worked! There is little to no slime now! --- Although I think the root was also dissolved in the process. It's now just a little stub sticking just below the net pot. The enzyme is also suppose to dissolved dead roots too but guess that root was too weak? Not sure what happened there. But I think the slime is cured! --- Solution strength went down to 395 PPMs. Decided to add more base nutrients. --- Added 8ml of Sensi A --- Added 8ml of Sensi B --- Added 4ml of B-52 --- Solution strength went up to 598 PPMs. --- PH was at 6.1 --- As long as the PH is between 5.5 and 6.3, I'm not going to use PH Up or Down. But still will monitor PH levels. - [1715]: Checked up on her after her nap and shes looking alive but stunted. But no slime! --- Decided to add some sugars to help maintain the enzymes and beneficial bacteria. --- Solution strength was at 587 PPMs. --- PH was at 6.2 --- Added 8ml of Bud Candy --- Solution strength went up to 671 PPMs. --- PH also went up to 6.3 --- Lowered water level a bit to hopefully promote more root growth. --- Top fed for a minute. --- She is getting bigger, but still looks yellow. Day 05 - Friday - 08/14/20 - Total Days: 012 ----------------------------------- - [0915]: Leaves look a little burnt on the tips. Still no slime. --- Going to back off on the PPMs to hopefully fix the nutrient toxicity. --- Solution strength was at 632 PPMs --- PH was at 6.3 --- Added/Removed water until PPMs were at 536. --- PH was still at 6.3 --- Raised water up a bit, then top fed for a minute. - [2200]: Looking better. Still yellow though. --- Solution strength: 514 PPMs --- PH: 6.5 --- Added PH down. --- New solution strength: 518 PPMs --- New PH: 5.2 --- PH was kind of high. So decided to PH down. Had to use quite a bit to bring it down. But eventually got it to drop down to 5.3. A little low, but so far, the PH has always gone up so wanted to start it really low. --- Ran the top feed for a minute to re-saturate the top of the hydroton. Day 06 - Saturday - 08/15/20 - Total Days: 013 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: She looks stunted. leaves are still yellow. --- Solution strength: 514 PPMs --- PH: 5.6 --- Top fed for a minute. --- Not sure what to do at this point. Going to do another reservoir change soon. Hoping she lives until then. - [2145]: Looking pretty much the same. --- A bit of slime has returned. Since I've been diluting the nutrient solution, the enzyme ratio has dropped. So I guess this is expected. --- Also noticed that slime build up was on the air-stones. Never really checked the stones so not sure how long that has been there. Looks brown too, which can't be good. --- Going to do an H202 sterilization of the system (minus the net pot) tomorrow so did not add anything. --- Lowered the water level to below the net pot. --- Then top fed for a minute. Day 07 - Sunday - 08/16/20 - Total Days: 014 ----------------------------------- - [0900]: STERILIZATION DAY! --- Decided to skip today's night cycle for a deep clean. --- I'm hoping that skipping a night cycle won't be too stressful. --- Temporarily moved her to a new bucket. --- Used about a half of gallon of straight distilled water to flush out the net pot. --- Drained the system and wiped up all the brown sludge. Also removed the air stones and cleaned up all the goo. --- Filled the system with 2 gallons of distilled water and at least 30ml of food grade hydrogen peroxide (35% strength). --- Yea its a lot, but since I'm not going to sterilize the system overnight, I went with a really high doseage. Basically I kept adding until I started to see little bubbles start to form. --- Then I ran the water pump. - [0915]: Boiled the air stones in tap water for about 10 min. Then reconnected them to the airlines. --- I let the air stones and hose soak in the sterilization solution for about 5 minutes so the peroxide can absorb into the stones. Then ran the air stone to help mix and agitate the solution. --- Occasionally, I'd repeat the process of turning the air pump off for a few minutes to let the stones soak. - [1000]: Covered the top two row of holes of the net pot with some aluminum tape. Hopefully this solves the light leaking in through the hydroton. - [1200]: Used an old toothbrush and scrubbed the pump clean. Then drained the system. --- Refilled with more distilled water and peroxide. Again added a lot. --- Ran system again to sterilize even more. - [1530]: Drained the system and refilled with distilled water to rinse. --- Ran the system for a few minutes, then drained and rinsed again. --- Did this a few more times over about an hour. - [1630]: Added 4 gallons of fresh distilled water. --- Added 15ml Sensi Grow A --- Added 15ml Sensi Grow B --- Added 12ml of B-52 --- Added 16ml of Voodoo Juice --- Added 16ml Sensizym --- Solution strength was at 430 PPMs --- PH was at 5.6 --- I was going to add Hydroguard, but I think the bottle is expired. Since 2017 or 2018!? I think Hydroguard is good for up to 2 years from the date on the bottle or 6 months after opening. So not going to use from now on. I wonder if this could have contributed to the slime build up. --- Also removed the CaliMagic and Superthrive too. Going to only use AN products to eliminate the chance of incompatible nutrients. --- Placed her back in the bucket and top fed for a minute. --- Here's hoping for the best. Going to let it ride until morning! Please feel better! [END OF WEEK 02]

Love how beautifully she is growing! She’s 12 days in transition now so 2 days away from 2 weeks in bloom basically (since I switched to 12-12) so interested to see where her stretch will cease! She’s no longer on raises now and is now climbing above the girl that was already in bloom! (Iced grapefruit) and now stands an inch above her when I started I had the plants raised to match her height and now it will be visa versa! And so many flower sites too! Amazing progress! I pulled her ties for the last time too to allow the lower branches to gain more light but I’m done with that now as it’s opened enough and is now working on them lower branches too! But she’s such a beauty! Has flower sites all the way up her branches!

More calm this week, not a lot of people mention on here that the work load reduces a couple weeks after the big stretch. Not had to do too much except a little bending as she’s still getting a bit too close to the lights again. Most of the fan leaves are off now, that I can reach that is. No more reservoir changes now until it gets the chop, as my nutrients stay fairly consistent for the next 3-5 weeks. At around 950 TDS @ 0.5 or 1900 PPM. Still no nutrient deficiencies, the longest stretch I have gone without at least some spots or marks on leaves. Would be interested to know what you guys think she might yield now she’s just about into her 5th week of flower?

The purple punch x dos-si-dos are keepers for sure, they got such amazing tropical smell:) Only downside is that i have 1 pheno that is a bit ahead of her sisters:( The Diesel dipped coockies packed some size last week:) And the nuggs damn they are so dense it Just doesn't make sense;) The glookies are still stacking💪 quite a good yielding strain im asuming. Nice Lemon smell on these

This week started strong. Some small concerns due to small orange spots appearing on fan leaves which on researching indicates a calcium/magnesium deficiency. Will add a small amount of cal mag to their next feed

Ok so this here is my lady she has a great structure and over all height to use .. The whole plant has been growing fast both in width and height out of it. The grow has been organic and and feeding it with @miicrobialmass a biological additive that brings the soil around the roots alive .. we are going to have a monster on out hands..

Some buds are starting to show signs of maturing, they have a bit of a creeping stretch. I'm still moving buds away from the light and resting them outside the deflector as they reach it!!!! The smell is very sweet and a hint of pine. Getting excited about the harvest 🤘😎

Como pasan de rápido las semanas! Las señoritas bien. Ya en la semana 6 de crecimiento, pensaba en dejarlas hasta la semana 8 vegetando, pero la sharkshock de la parte superior izquierda me tiene algo indeciso, siento que me quedará corto el espacio de 1.80 en la carpa, espero no sea el caso. Es la que más toma agua 🤭 Veremos hasta la semana 7 que tal y viendo eso veo si las pongo en flora, hasta ahora con el riego de 6.2 esta todo super, abonando con productos orgánicos, esperando a tener una buena cosecha. Pronto les seguiré contando que tal :D

Update coming.

# Grow Bericht: Woche 5 In der 5. Woche sind die meisten Pflanzen in die Blütephase eingetreten, mit Ausnahme der zwei späteren Lemon Cherry Cookies. Düngung: Ich habe den Dünger um **Bio Bizz Bloom** und **Top Max** erweitert, allerdings nur für die zwei Mimosa Cake Pflanzen. Schädlingsbekämpfung: Die Trauermücken, die ich zuvor entdeckt hatte, sind nach der Behandlung mit Neemöl fast verschwunden. Pflanzenentwicklung: Die Pflanzen entwickeln ein schönes, großes Blattwerk. Die CBD-Pflanze sieht jedoch weiterhin nicht gesund aus. Vielleicht hat jemand aus der Community einen Rat dazu? Bei der Strawberry Banana Pflanze sehe ich eine mögliche Überdüngung an den Blattspitzen. Luftfeuchtigkeit: Ich habe einen Luftentfeuchter hinzugefügt, was dazu beigetragen hat, die Luftfeuchtigkeit relativ konstant zu halten. Das war's für diese Woche. Ich freue mich auf die kommenden Wochen und bin gespannt, wie sich meine Pflanzen weiterentwickeln werden. Bis zum nächsten Update!

Day 32 flower update they smell amazing and are starting to fatten up...we're lookin at 60-70 say harvest time recommend by the breeders for all these strains

Umgetopft in 3,2L Sonnenerde Hanf mit ca. 5cm Blähton als Drainage. Ich habe diese Woche sowohl getaucht als auch von unten gegossen und werde es so beibehalten, dabei gieße ich immer kurz von oben an. Die Purple Lemonade, die etwa 1 Woche hinterher ist, habe ich trotzdem auch jetzt schon umgetopft. Die Beleuchtung wird auf ~23 DLI hochgefahren.

PABLO ESCOBAR / DIVINE SEEDS WEEK #7 OVERALL WEEK #6 VEG This week she was transplanted to a 1 gallon cloth pot and she didn't have any issues with the transplant or recovery afterwards she's a strong plant good genetics!! Stay Growing!! Thank you for stopping by and taking a look it's much appreciated!! Thank you DIVINE SEEDS!! FOOP.COM PABLO ESCOBAR / DIVINE SEEDS

Světlo jede na 50% a teplota stoupla na pouhých 23,3°C přes den. Doufal jsem trochu víc ale nic s tim bohužel neudělám D29: 3 dny po přesazení holek do 11 L květináčů Shogun 5 a Haze Berry 1 mají na spodních listech trochu popálené konečky 😓 , ale jinak vypadají spokojeně. Asi jsem použil trochu více BioBizz Worm Humus během přesazování. Zbylé holky vypadají velmi spokojeně a mají sytě zelené listy které jsou naprosto bez vady 😍 7 rostlin má momentálně 5 nodů jedna rostlina už 6, takže v druhé polovině týdne začnu s vytvářením potrubí na main-linning. Už se nemůžu dočkat až začnu s tréninkem 😍 D31: Každá rostlina zalita 500ml čisté vody bez živin D33 čtvrtek: Holky jsem zastřihl u 3. Nodu a vyčistil od zbylého porostu. Ponechal jsem pouze přilehlé listy u rostlin s menšími větvemi. Povedlo se mi zlomit jednu větev u Haze Berry 1 během LST :'( zranění jsem ošetřil ale po 8 hodinách je zřejmé že větev nepřežije :'( Vysadil jsem 3 semena Sweet Orange XL od českých pěstitelů z Natural Seeds jako náhradu za zlomenou větev Každá rostlina dostala 1L vody s živinami které můžete vidět v tabulce D35: Vyklíčila všechna semena Sweet Orange XL. Všechna ve stejný den :)

Starting to pack it on!
