🐺 Week 4 Veg — The Legends of the Frozen North 12/12 from seed 📌 Disclaimer / Timeline clarification Before we begin, a quick note for transparency: Last week, while compiling the reports, I unintentionally included some photos that actually belong to this week. That one’s on me. It’s fairly easy to notice which photos those are, and to avoid duplicating files, I’ll keep the correct visuals where they are while continuing to share this week’s genetics shots and videos as intended. Thank you for the understanding — clarity and honesty always come first here 🙏 Quick recap (for anyone joining us now) We’re in Week 4 of vegetative growth, steady and intentional. No stress events, no corrections, no forcing. This phase has been about establishing structure, roots, and rhythm — letting the plants find their footing before the real acceleration begins. So far, everything has been calm, balanced, and exactly where it should be. ⸻ 🌡️ Room Conditions & Environment • Temperature: 25.7 °C • Relative Humidity: 60% • VPD: Right in the comfort zone for mid-veg • Airflow: Stable and consistent This environment supports: • steady metabolic activity • healthy transpiration • deep green leaf development No swings, no drama — just a room doing its job. ⸻ 💡 Lighting Strategy (Week 4) • LED intensity: 90% • Lighting position: Top lighting only • Under-canopy lighting: Not active yet (planned for flower) The plants are growing into the light, not being pushed by it. That’s an important distinction. We’re not chasing numbers — we’re observing response. To stay informed, we’re using a TrolMaster PAR sensor, walking the tent and checking PPFD across the canopy. Nothing is adjusted — this is purely situational awareness. Knowing where you stand matters, even when you choose not to intervene. ⸻ 🌱 Nutrition Program (Current Feed) The nutrition is intentionally simple, complete, and supportive: • Plagron Terra Grow — base nutrition for vegetative development • Power Roots — root mass, lateral branching, early resilience • Pure Zym — enzyme support, cleaner rhizosphere • Sugar Royal — gentle metabolic & microbial support • Vita Race — foliar vitality and micronutrient support Nothing excessive. Nothing missing. The plants are responding with lush green color, clean leaf posture, and uniform growth. ⸻ 🌿 Plant Observations • Color: deep, healthy green • Leaves: flat, relaxed, expressive • Growth rate: slow and steady — as expected • Structure: building quietly There’s honestly not much to “fix” this week — and that’s a good sign. Week 4 veg is often deceptive: things look calm on the surface, while roots and internal systems are stacking potential underneath. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect (and Not Expect) Expect: • a noticeable growth acceleration soon • tighter node stacking • increased appetite as roots fully establish Don’t expect: • explosive stretch yet • dramatic visual changes this week • the need for major adjustments The “takeoff” is coming — not because we force it, but because this groundwork allows it. To the moon is just an expression 😉 — but the momentum is real. ⸻ Closing Notes Week 4 veg is about patience, trust, and restraint. The legends of the frozen north weren’t written in haste — and neither are strong plants. Community Note Due to YouTube community guidelines, our educational channel was taken down.

Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

Did some heavy defoilation this week and more training. Started seeing some white hairs first appear, just showing female. Today is day 30 and this is supposed to be a 60 plant, we will see.

We will start to check the tricomes next week but i think that some more time is needed, the buds are nice and fat and have a tremendous smell, great strain, specially if you like something easy to grow, its really a pleasure growing this strain, i took some monster crops some weeks ago and have a separate diary for these 😁

💩Holy Crap Growmies We Are Back💩 Well growmies we are almost there , she got flushed so her days are numbered💀💀💀 👉 Shes a short chunky little plant,😉 Lights being readjusted and chart updated .........👍 Even with early major issues due to the soil/medium she's come a long way 👈 👉I used NutriNPK for nutrients for my grows and welcome anyone to give them a try .👈 👉 www.nutrinpk.com 👈 NutriNPK Cal MAG 14-0-14 NutriNPK Grow 28-14-14 NutriNPK Bloom 8-20-30 NutriNPK Bloom Booster 0-52-34 I GOT MULTIPLE DIARIES ON THE GO 😱 please check them out 😎 👉THANKS FOR TAKING THE TIME TO GO OVER MY DIARIES 👈

🥒 Project Blue Tent – Week 8 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Pheno B (Folder 14B) Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of Project Blue Tent! 💙🌱 If you're discovering this diary for the first time, welcome aboard! Project Blue Tent follows four individual plants from seed all the way through harvest, with each phenotype receiving her own dedicated diary. All four sisters share the same tent, lighting, irrigation, nutrition, environmental conditions and overall training strategy. The idea is simple: Keep the variables as consistent as possible and let the genetics tell the story. And this week... The story is getting very interesting. Because all four girls have entered flowering with absolutely no intention of slowing down. Today we're giving the spotlight to Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Plant B. And once again... She's shining. 💙🌱 ──────────────────────── 🌸 Week Eight – Flower Has Arrived The Blue Tent has officially entered the next chapter. After seven full weeks of vegetation, we're now running 12/12, and the response from the plants has been immediate. Plant B is now sitting around 81 cm, compared with approximately 60 cm when we finished the vegetative phase. That's a serious amount of growth in a very short period. And what's particularly impressive is that the plants aren't simply stretching upward. They're developing everywhere. The branches are extending. New growth is appearing rapidly. Flowering sites are becoming more obvious every day. And the first real signs of bud development are now beautifully visible throughout Plant B's structure. This is the point where all those weeks of preparation start becoming meaningful. The SCROG gave us the structure. The defoliation opened the canopy. The training created the framework. And now... Flowering is filling that framework. ──────────────────────── 🌿 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Plant B Plant B continues to be one of those girls that makes me stop and look twice. Her foliage is lush, vibrant and beautifully green, and the overall health of the plant is exactly where I want it to be. The developing flowers are progressing quickly, with fresh pistils and new growth appearing throughout the canopy. And despite the speed at which she's developing, she's still maintaining a remarkably even structure. That's something I really appreciate about this phenotype. She has always been a cooperative plant. She responds well to training. She builds strong lateral growth. And even now, with flowering underway and the stretch accelerating, she's still giving us a canopy that is relatively easy to manage. At least... As easy as four extremely vigorous plants can be. 😂 ──────────────────────── 💥 Super Cropping – Keeping the Canopy Under Control The biggest challenge right now isn't getting these girls to grow. They've already made that part very clear. The challenge is managing how quickly they're growing. We're continuing to use super cropping on selected branches as another tool for managing the most vigorous vertical growth. The idea is to reduce the dominance of certain shoots, redistribute growth and encourage stronger branching points as the plants continue developing. And these girls are making me work for it. I'll carefully work a branch down... Come back later... And somehow it's already standing back up again. 😂🌱 They're determined. But that's actually what makes this stage so interesting. We're not trying to stop their natural growth. We're trying to work with it. The canopy is already very even, and we're simply making small interventions where necessary to keep the most aggressive growth from getting too far ahead. Whether we'll successfully keep everybody compact throughout the stretch? Well... Let's see. They certainly haven't read that part of the plan. ──────────────────────── 🌸 Bud Formation – Things Are Moving Quickly One of the most exciting changes this week is the speed of flower development. We're only at the beginning of flowering, yet Plant B is already showing beautiful formation throughout the canopy. The sites we've spent weeks creating and positioning are now beginning to transform. Pistils are appearing. Clusters are becoming more defined. And every day there's another little sign that tells me: We're properly in flower now. This is one of those moments where you can finally see the purpose behind all the earlier work. The individual branches aren't just branches anymore. They're becoming future flowers. And Plant B has plenty of them. ──────────────────────── 🌱 Seven Weeks of Vegetation – Was It Too Much? Looking at Plant B now, I'm still wondering whether I gave these girls too much vegetative time. Seven weeks of vegetation is considerably longer than I normally run. Usually, I'd flip earlier. But the extra time gave us something valuable: A very established canopy. Strong branches. A developed root system. And a structure capable of supporting a lot of flowering growth. The downside is becoming very obvious now. These plants have an incredible amount of momentum. They grew from roughly 60 cm to around 81 cm incredibly quickly, and they're still moving. So there is definitely a little bit of: "What have I created?" 😂 happening in the grow room right now. But worrying about it isn't going to make the plants grow slower. We've prepared them. We've trained them. We've opened the canopy. We're managing the stretch. Now we watch. And we see where these girls want to take us. ──────────────────────── 💡 Strong Light From the Beginning The transition into flowering also means we're starting with approximately 800 PPFD across the canopy. I want these girls to have strong light available from the beginning of flower rather than slowly creeping toward higher intensity. They're already extremely vigorous, so the idea is to give them the photons they need while closely observing how the canopy responds. The challenge is balancing that strong light with the environmental conditions and the very significant stretch we're already seeing. I'm particularly interested in seeing whether the combination of strong light and continued canopy management can help keep the plants from becoming excessively elongated. Because if there's one thing Plant B has demonstrated this week... It's that she has absolutely no shortage of energy. ──────────────────────── 🌡️ Blue Tent Environment The room continues to run with remarkably consistent conditions across all four sisters. This week's recorded averages were: • 🌡️ Day Temperature: 27°C • 🌙 Night Temperature: 27°C • 💧 Relative Humidity: 67% • 🥥 Substrate Temperature: 24°C • 💦 Nutrient Solution: 19.1°C • ⚗️ pH: 5.81 • ⚡ EC: 2.09 mS/cm • 💨 CO₂: approximately 666 ppm • 💡 Light Schedule: 12/12 • 💧 Irrigation: approximately 1.4 L/plant/24h • ? Pot Size: 8 L • 📏 Plant Height: approximately 81 cm One thing that continues to stand out is the relatively small difference between day and night temperatures. We're sitting around 27°C for both. That can contribute to continued stretching, and considering how quickly these girls are already growing, it's something I'm keeping firmly in mind. But for now, Plant B is responding beautifully. Healthy foliage. Strong development. Rapid flower formation. And no obvious signs that she's unhappy with her environment. ──────────────────────── 🥥 Feeding – Supporting the Transition The flowering nutrition is now established. Current feeding: • Plagron Hydro A — 2 ml/L • Plagron Hydro B — 2 ml/L • Plagron Hydro Roots — 1 ml/L • Plagron Power Buds — 1 ml/L • pH Plus — 0.03 ml/L • pH Min — 0.03 ml/L Current EC: 2.09 mS/cm pH: 5.81 The plants are consuming aggressively and developing extremely quickly, so the nutritional strategy is now supporting that transition without making unnecessary changes simply for the sake of changing something. Plant B's colour is exactly what I want to see. That beautiful, lush green foliage is telling me that she's handling the current program very well. And when I look at the flowering sites developing throughout the canopy... I'm certainly not seeing a plant asking me to interfere. So for now: We stay consistent. Observe. Measure. Adjust only when necessary. ──────────────────────── 💧 The Drip & Drainage System – One Continuous Loop The automatic irrigation and drainage setup has become one of my favourite parts of this project. Plant B is now receiving approximately 1.4 litres of nutrient solution every 24 hours through the drip irrigation system. The process is beautifully simple. The drippers deliver the nutrient solution directly to the coco. The solution passes through the substrate and feeds the root zone. The resulting runoff drains into the collection trays underneath the grow bags. From there, the drainage pipe carries the water toward the pump. The pump removes the collected runoff and returns it toward the reservoir, creating a recirculating irrigation and drainage loop. Water goes in. The plants use what they need. Runoff is collected. The pump moves it away. And the system continues its cycle. It's a remarkably elegant setup when everything is working properly. And right now... It is working wonderfully. The plants are growing rapidly, their water demand is increasing, and the system is keeping irrigation consistent without requiring me to manually water four increasingly thirsty plants every day. That consistency is especially valuable in a project where we're deliberately trying to keep the four sisters under comparable conditions. It's another variable we can keep controlled while we watch the genetics express themselves. ──────────────────────── 🕸️ Managing the Canopy During the Stretch The SCROG has already done its main job. Now we're using the structure we've created to manage flowering growth. The canopy remains impressively even. There are no huge dominant towers completely taking over the room. Instead, the flowering sites are distributed across the surface we've spent weeks building. But the stretch is happening quickly. So we're continuing to watch the taller shoots and selectively using training and super cropping where necessary. This isn't about constantly manipulating the plant. It's about making small corrections before a branch becomes a major problem. A little intervention now can be much easier than trying to fix an overly dominant branch later. And Plant B has responded very well so far. She's stretching... But she's stretching into a structure. That's exactly what I wanted. ──────────────────────── 🌿 Plant B's Personality Is Still There This is one of my favourite things about Project Blue Tent. From above, the four sisters can look almost identical. Same tent. Same lights. Same irrigation. Same nutrients. Same environment. And yet... Spend enough time with them and their personalities start becoming obvious. Plant B remains one of the more naturally cooperative phenotypes. She's vigorous, but her structure remains usable. She's growing rapidly, but the canopy hasn't become chaotic. She's producing flowering sites quickly, while maintaining that beautiful green foliage we've been watching since vegetation. And now she's showing another characteristic: She doesn't seem particularly interested in slowing down. 😂🌱 Which, honestly, is a pretty good problem to have. ──────────────────────── 🌸 From Canopy to Flowers There is something incredibly satisfying about looking at Plant B now and remembering what she looked like only a few weeks ago. Back then, we were talking about: Topping. SCROG. Empty squares. Branch positioning. Defoliation. Canopy management. Now we're talking about: Flowering sites. Pistils. Stretch. Bud formation. And eventually... Bulk. That's the transition we've been working toward. The plant has moved from building the machine to using the machine. The canopy is the foundation. Now the flowers get to take over the story. ──────────────────────── 👀 Looking Ahead The next couple of weeks should be fascinating. All four sisters are moving incredibly quickly, and Plant B is right there with them. We'll continue managing the canopy as needed. We'll keep an eye on the stretch. Super cropping will remain one of the tools available when individual branches get too ambitious. The irrigation system will continue providing its consistent cycle. The flowering nutrition will continue supporting development. And the environmental conditions will remain under close observation. Most importantly... We don't need to panic about the speed. Yes, they're growing fast. Yes, I may have kept them in vegetation longer than usual. Yes, the warm nights aren't exactly helping us keep the stretch compact. But the plants are healthy. The canopy is remarkably even. The flowers are forming beautifully. And Plant B is looking absolutely fantastic. So... Let's see where this goes. 🌸💙 ──────────────────────── 💙 Thank You A huge thank you to Zamnesia for making Project Blue Tent possible and for giving us the opportunity to explore these Pickle Lemon Haze F1 genetics phenotype by phenotype. A heartfelt thank you to Plagron for the Premium Growbags and Hydro nutrient line supporting these girls throughout their journey and now through the beginning of flowering. A special thank you to Zamnesia for the Phytonaut LED lighting helping us create such a strong, even canopy and now providing the intensity we're using during the transition into flower. And a massive thank you to Mars Hydro for the automatic drip irrigation and drainage system. Watching the drippers, coco, runoff collection, drainage lines, pump and reservoir work together has been incredibly satisfying. The system has become an important part of keeping the entire room consistent. Thank you as well to GrowDiaries for providing a place where growers from around the world can document their journeys, exchange experiences and learn together. And finally... Thank you to everyone following Project Blue Tent. 💙 Plant B has officially entered flowering. She's stretching. She's building flowers. She's producing lush, beautiful growth. And she's making it very clear that seven weeks of vegetation gave her plenty of momentum. 😂🌱 For now, the canopy remains beautifully even. The flowers are developing quickly. The super cropping is helping us manage the most ambitious branches. The irrigation system is doing its job. The nutrition is supporting the transition. And Plant B... Well... She's simply shining. Four sisters. One environment. One experiment. And four plants that somehow manage to make every week more interesting. Let's see what the next chapter brings. Until next week... Growers Love, happy growing, and take care everyone! 🌱💙

The thickening is complete! Into the ripening stage we go smelling like sweet bubblegum candy and chemically skunk cologne. Although she ran into some N tox late veg into early flower, she didn’t seem to care! Extremely thick and relatively dense buds, next level trichome coverage, and lowers that look like some of my tops when I first started growing 😂 Super satisfied with these results, and I have 4 more beans of this strain to run! She’s ready to chop now, but I want to allow my Cookie Monster (SamOG x FS) to finish drying first before harvesting this one.

Week 5 already, thats why they call it fastbuds... In no time its harvest time! We had some bugs (trips) running around, i think i took them from outside as i was working on my garden, my outdoor plant is also affected, that happens for being a dirty old man 🤦🤷 but not much we can do now, i tried to clean the leaves a bit and remove some, but i think its better to harvest and clean the room as i dont eant any pesticides on the buds, but for the rest quite ok, we gave aome extra pk and bloom this week so lets see how the plants do next weeks 😁

Finally she has shown some signs of flowering. I thought that she would stay short, because i accidentally broke her in half. But she survived and grew much bigger than i even thought she would. The main cola, that i broke is the biggest of them all 😁 Other than that everything looks nice. No signs of any kind of dis balance ✌️

My o my, what can I say... These ladies are gorgeous! Along with adding in the 2000W along side my 600W, I cut out the grow solution in my nutes contrary to the instructions and my ladies are booming! We'll see how the rest of the week continues! I started a majority bloom with some added glucose for my feed to help with bud weight but they are really packing on. Hopefully next week will be my last week of feeding as trichrome production increases and I can start my 2 week flush!

Flower week 7

Gente,sono arrivato alla 6 settimana di fioritura,per fortuna sto riuscendo a debellare sto cazzo di ragnetto rosso...e tutti i fiorellini maschi che stavano spuntando...al momento sembra che non stiano più facendo sviluppare,ne nannars ne fiori completi di Maschio......il che è buonissimo 😋...spero riuscire a portare a termine bene la mia terapia, altrimenti mi ritroverò (ma di molto nellaCACCONA...MERDA!!!)..MA no! sono positivo e quasi sicuro che sarà buonissima 😋

Gibt diese Woche nicht viel zu melden. Die Pflanzen werden durstiger und werden alle 4 Tage gedüngt. Eine Pflanze habe ich ein wenig entlaubt um ein Gefühl für die Auswirkungen zu bekommen. Position der Pflanzen wurde entgegen des Uhrzeigersinns verändert. ###English### Not much to report this week. The plants are getting thirstier and are being fertilized every 4 days. I defoliated one plant a little to get a feel for the effects. The position of the plants has been changed counter-clockwise.

Info: Unfortunately, I had to find out that my account is used for fake pages in social media. I am only active here on growdiaries. I am not on facebook instagram twitter etc All accounts except this one are fake. Flowering day 54 since time change to 12/12 h. Hi everyone :-) . We are slowly getting closer to the end :-). The lady puts her full energy into the flowers. The leaves are beginning to fall. I poured 3 times this week with 1.2 l each. The trichomes were checked and the leaves were also checked for animals. everything is great 👍. The tent was cleaned and the electronics checked as well. I wish you a lot of fun with this update. Stay healthy 🙏🏻 You can buy this Strain at https://www.amsterdamgenetics.com/product/super-silver-haze/ Type: Super Silver Haze ☝️🏼 Genetics: Haze x Skunk #1 x Northern Lights Type: 70% Sativa – 30% Indica 👍 Vega lamp: 2 x Todogrow Led Quantum Board 100 W 💡 Bloom Lamp : 2 x Todogrow Led Cxb 3590 COB 3500 K 205W 💡💡☝️🏼 Soil : Canna Coco Professional + ☝️🏼 Fertilizer: Green House Powder Feeding ☝️🏼🌱 Water: Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC.

all in all it was a great run and im glad to have grew it and plan to grow it again in the future

its day 35 since sproud and surag black rose is looking very good. grows the fastest looks the healthiest. Also trained her with the bending clips to make the branches stronger. I collected leave mold from the surrounding woods. a lot of white fungy hopefully usefull mycoriza.

Well time for the chop, I'm not waiting any longer! 10 weeks on a "fast" "ruderelis" cross my a@$! None the less she smells amazing, thick strawberry old school hash at the moment. The back couple of phenos could have done another week easy!! Trimmers at the ready boys and girls, results coming soon!!!

The auto flowers are on later stage flowering, so they are on a later stage nutrient feed. Had some issues with my blue sunset starting to get some possible light burn not too sure maybe even PH burn cause I waited to long to flush the Coco coir but it's not that bad and all of them are doing great the 2 in the soil (ocean forest and strawberry fields mix) look a lot more healthier than the ones in coco, still giving the ones in soil mainly water feeds with nutrients after 2 water feeds since the soil provides nutrients have a buddy keep asking making sure I'm doing that. But yeah it's at the fun part but also stressful part, for some reason this is the stage where I have had quite a bit of issues on previous grows but taking the advice of people on here I'm keeping it stupid simple all the nutrients listed may not all end up in the feed but sometimes a rotation of all the ones listed plus a few others.

She is doing absolutely great! Starting to flush her this week

Que pasa familia, vamos con la cuarta semana de floración de estas Rainbow Melon feminizada de fastbuds. Vamos al lío, de las 3 plantas, me quede con 2 por espacio, siempre pongo alguna semilla de más por si no abriese alguna por no perder ese hueco del indoor. También se trasplantaron a su maceta definitiva, en este caso de 7 litros. Tenían algo de shock por el trasplante pero ya fue solucionado. El ph se controla en 6.2 , la temperatura la tenemos entre 20/22 grados y la humedad ronda el 50%. Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨
