All in all this grow was super easy. I couldve done some things to make it better but she pretty much did all the work. This strain would be perfect for a SOG style grow because it produces mostly a singular main cola nug that's pretty huge and then the bottom nugs themselves are also decently chunky. 4/22 chopped the lower half the plant. Wet it weighs 50grams. Still have the main cola in a dark room for another day or so before im gonna chop. 4/26 bottom half of plant dried in 4 days. 5/2 top cola dried in 5 days. Total weight is less than 20 grams at 19.4 5/12. Ten days of cure and shes looking even better. Spongey thick nugs. Dark red almost brown Pistils with pyramid shaped nugs. I also wanted to not how fast and easy this grow actually was. She has so much amber I probably couldve chopped her 2 weeks previous. 3 weeks veg and 5 weeks flowering and some would chop. Review. Growing 9/10 for ease of growth Super fast and simple. You can Fuck up and get fat buds lol High: 9/10 super stoney. No paranoia Yield:8/10 plant a super short. Like less than a foot. Can probably yield around a zip roughly Bag appeal: 7/10after cure buds look good. Before harvest buds look fantastic as well

22 Aug 2021 Today I’m starting to give some nutrients to assist my ladies in their development. I have been using plain pH’ed water to use the nutrients in the soil before giving anything extra. My girls are looking bleached out and weak. Maybe trying to reduce the nutrients by using the soil for the first week or so in their new homes isn’t paying off. I was hoping to see them flourish, but they aren’t. Growing is all about trial and error, and I’m hoping that my error isn’t going to hurt them in the long run! I’m starting the “Late Growth, stage 4” on my Flora-Trio 6 part feeding chart, but in the beginning I’m going to give them only half of the recommended amount to hopefully prevent any nutrient burn that they might experience. If there are no negative impacts seen, then I’ll adjust the amount as necessary. Today I’m giving them a half gallon of water with the following nutrients: CALiMAGic 2ml, FloraMicro 3.8ml, FloraGro 4.5ml, FloraBloom 2.5ml, and Floralicious Plus 1ml. The initial pH was as follows: C1 - 6.4, C2 - 6.3, C3 - 6.3. I did not need to adjust it, so I didn’t. The TDS going in was: C1 - 636 ppm, C2 - 634 ppm, C3 - 653 ppm. I was originally planning on giving each plant a gallon of water, but I received enough runoff after only half a gallon. I guess they still haven’t developed an extensive root system enough to require the additional water. It just made it to where I don’t have to worry about making more to give them in a couple of days. The runoff pH and TDS were as follows: C1 - pH 5.7, TDS 498 ppm; C2 - pH 6.0, TDS 562 ppm; C3 - pH 5.7, TDS 707 ppm. It’s always funny to see how plants in the same type of soil, and given nearly the same solution still have such varying pH and TDS runoff levels. 🤷‍♂️ That’s all I have to say. It’s a mystery, but not an overly important one as long as they’re healthy. The heat in the tent today was somewhat warm, but not as bad as it has been lately. The temperature was 81F, and the humidity was 56%. I’m hopeful that adding nutrients today will improve their color and get them to start developing their branches some more so I can flip them to flower in a little bit. We’ll have to see how it goes. 25 Aug 2021 Today I gave my ladies the second half of the gallon that I prepared a few days ago. They received the first half gallon on the 22nd, so I’m not going to repeat everything here again. To see what they were given read the note above. I am going to note the runoff levels and the temperature and humidity because they are important to note. Runoff was as follows: C1 - pH 6.0, TDS 610 ppm C2 - pH 6.1, TDS 546 ppm C3 - pH 6.0, TDS 765 ppm Again, it just weird seeing plants with different pH and TDS levels when they’re given nearly the exact same solution. 🤷‍♂️ The temperature in the tent was 81F, and humidity 62%. Overall, my little ladies are looking better since starting the nutrients. They no longer look bleached out, and the green is returning to her leaves quite well. I decided to measure them today as well to document their growth. C1 is now 16 inches tall, and C2 is 15 inches, and C3 is 16 inches. C1 and C2’s lights were adjusted to be 19 inches away, and C3’s light is at 18 inches to keep the light canopy level. The difference in the light and size is due to the size of the pot C3 is in. She stands taller because her pot is half a gallon larger, but also because the pot has small legs on which it stands on so it sits higher. They’re looking better, so that’s all that I care about in reality. Good luck, and happy growing everyone!!

Been trying to slow them down, defoliation and topped them tied down, doing well can’t defoliant fast enough. Guest room getting full

420FASTBUDS FBT2101 WEEK 11 Getting close for this one. Probably another week is all and I really couldn't be happier. Frosty as can be and smells like a candy store. Flowers are dense as I'd like but definitely from the looks will need a grinder to make life easier when breaking this one up. Happy Growing

Thank you. Growing cannabis is an art that seems to evolve as you learn it. While it may only take a little knowledge to get started, It seems that this may take a life-time to perfect (doubt I'll ever make that category, but I will certainly try). So thank-you to the community that Shares, Comments, Follows, and Likes. Your efforts in any of these actions make these journals a worth-while and perfect way for us all to learn and track our efforts. I personally appreciate it. Also a huge Thanks has to go out to Grow Diaries for making this community even possible. Your efforts to supply the data storage alone is more than enough, but you the fact that you dont stop there and constantly try to improve the experience even more makes this my favorite community to to share on. And then lastly, but certainly not least, a heartfelt Thank-you to Royal Queen Seeds for your branding/research while making these seeds available to people like me. It gives me confidence in knowing that I am working with great genetics before I even start my grow. ---------------------------- Germination Start and incubation period 3/12/24 to 3/26/24 Transfer Day to Veg Day 6 3/27 to 4/2 Germination: First note was about the appearance of the seeds. They were smaller than I am used to seeing, but no damage or deformities and look to be in good shape. Germination took 14 days from dropping in water to transplanting into 1 gallon pots. 23hours in a glass of 6.3ph room temp RO water. 2 cracked open a little and I placed them both in paper towels wet with the glass water and pasted to the sides of the glass for 2 days then checked, no progress. So I freshened the water then waited another 2 days and checked, little to no progress. Then checked again 1 day later and finally was able to move them. One looked fully ready and the other seemed less ready. I placed in rapid rooter pods and closed with toothpick tips. 1 popped out of the pods in 1 day but the other did not. So I gave it 1 more day and started my spare seed. After 4 days of water and towels I replaced the dead pod with a growing sprout. Transplant occurred on 3/27 Veg Day 0 to 6 1gal hard tall pots. Transplant went well. The sprouts are smaller than I would like and seem to be stubborn in growth to start but hoping htat changes with soil. One pod was overgrown in the pods and Im hoping it doesn't reflect in the overall plant production. Video: Transplant ease. Transplant to 1 gal pots: I am using a 50/50, 50%perlite/50%soil with a .5lb of dolomite lime and a .5ml of flora micro added to .5 gallon of RO water (Im mixing 2 gallons of soil total so the water to soil ratio is 1/4 of the total medium volume) to achieve a soil tested ph of 6.4. I am using a 50/50 soil/perlite mix because I plan to use these in auto pots. I also used about 1 cup of the same soil mix water to pour around the plant after transplant; you can see how the perlite rises to the top where I did this. I sprayed two domes and covered - I plan to leave covered for the first week. Feed: I kept them under the domes and sprayed every day that I didnt feed them, to keep humidity up while I let them find water in the soil. By the end of the week I took the domes off and took pictures. Feed this week was another 1 cup of 6.3ph water 5 days after transplant. Feed plan next week will increase the amount to 2 cups of plain-no-nute water with about 4 days between feeds. I want to see the water run through so if I need to use more than 2 cups I will. The idea is to water deep and through, but then make them search for more before the next feed, hopefully spreading the roots out while doing it. Veg Plan: I plan on 8 colas for each plant. So that will be 3 topping days and a total of 7 cuts. I will want to cut the first time on day 21 if I have 5+ nodes. I will transfer to 5 gallon auto pots with-in 1 week of the first topping. Once I have 3 nodes of new growth past the first topping, I will top those two branches to the first node again. (that's 3 cuts total by this point) Then, after 3 new nodes of growth after that, I will do a last topping on the 4 branches. (4 new cuts added to make a total of 7 cuts and 8 colas) I will train the branches using LST/HST with tie downs as soon as I can after the first topping day to help maintain the branches growing where I want them to. I will also introduce an adjustable tomato ring after they have settled into the 5 gallon forever pots to provide support and mobility Hopefully all goes well, and I will have 1 to 2 weeks of growth before flip after week 8. I think it sounds more ambitious than it really is, but if you follow this journal, we will see together.

End of Week 4 (for those following along at home) and there are trichomes everywhere! Both of these plants are putting out sugar like there is no tomorrow. Velvet Moon is smelling a lot like tropical punch drink (Holy Punch x Dosi Dos) and it’s delicious. The Black Apple has a much weaker smell which isn’t really defined for the nose yet. I stripped a few more side branches this week as things were tangling up as there was too much going on. Both look very happy and have plenty of air flowing through them now. BAH is slightly taller than VM. Both stretched approximately double their height and not much more. That may have been due to me topping the plants 3 days before flip to try and keep heights limited. It worked well as i am at the exact distance to the light i wanted to be for 100% power (50cm). BAH has has some stems go a pink/res colour but no other plant changes. It’s hot here due to summer so been running the girls at night and they sleep during the day. Looking forward to documenting the bud development over the next few weeks as these stack weight and start maturing. I think this will be a 10 week flower minimum.

Hey everyone at week 4 know and wow have these girls grown early this week I applied some LST and all took really well to say it was my first time trying this

**Grow Report by Zuppler - Week 1 Flowering Phase** Ayo, what’s good fam? Zuppler back in this b**** with the week 1 flowering update, straight outta the capital. We just flipped the switch to that 12/12, and these girls already know what time it is – they starting to stretch out like they tryna reach for the stars. We runnin’ that Ape Formula from Advanced Nutrients, got the whole squad dialed in on some next-level s***. Feeding them queens like they royalty, nah mean? We keepin' it real precise with that RO water – pure as it gets, no cap. I ain't lettin' no junk minerals mess up the game. We stayin’ locked on that pH balance like a sniper, so the nutes hit right, and them roots keep drinkin’ smooth. So far, no issues – the plants look strong, real healthy. Ain’t no signs of deficiencies, and the leaves stayin’ green like money. The canopy lookin’ good too, spreadin’ out evenly. All them colas just gettin' ready to explode. You already know, we keepin’ everything low stress, tryin’ to maximize that yield without no drama. Temperature’s steady, humidity right where it need to be – we not takin’ no L’s, bro. It’s early days, but the stretch is comin’ in strong. In a minute, these girls gon' be stackin’ up them buds real heavy. I can already tell we ‘bout to be sittin’ on some fire soon. Stay posted, this is just the beginning. Zuppler signin' out.

really big buds. love it. my fav

Flush is on!

So this week the little gelatocake is on week 8 and is really starting to eat herself now, full of trichomes and smells like tutti fruity chewie sweets. Last week of nutes for her then mollases only. Week 7 for the othere gelatocake and shes starting to fatten up now as well as fade also. Babys have got big since re potting I will.bend them over later. Sherbert mimosa are still taking there time I think they are starting to get bigger 🤔🤣 I Will keep you updated lol. Happy growing guys 👌💪💚

Veg32, gran defoliación y Lollipop, riego con 2.0 EC y 6.2 pH. Están entre 25~28 centímetros de altura. En esta misma etapa en el cultivo anterior, estaban solo de 20cm, eso quiere decir que hasta ahora el crecimiento ha sido más eficiente.

🍨🌿🍦🍨🌿🍦🍨🌿🍦🍨🌿🍦🍨🌿🍦🍨 This girl put out some real amazing hues towards the end. Has a very pleasant aroma as well. She's on her last week in under light. I'll be harvesting this Beasty beauty next week. Gave Gelato a few good flushes over the last 10-12 days of plain RO, PH 6.5 With her initial flush done with a Flawless Finish soak. 🍨🍨🍦🍨🍨🍦🍨🍨🍦🍨🍨🍦🍨🍨🍦🍨🍨 ** Had some issues uploading her Trichome video. Eventually got it to post. Yay! Because we do 💚 them milky trichome forests. All is done for your appreciation of course. My fellow growmies make it all worthwhile. Eagerly waiting to indulge in this girl's fruity goodness. Good things come to those who wait patiently. 🍼💎🥛🍼💎🥛🍼💎🥛🍼💎🥛🍼💎🥛🍼 Until Gelato's harvest. Stay frosty 🥂

💙 Project Blue Tent – Week 5 Blue Waffle F1 – Pheno B (Folder 13B) Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of Project Blue Tent. For anyone discovering these diaries for the first time, this project follows four individual Blue Waffle F1 plants from Zamnesia from seed to harvest. Every plant grows inside the exact same environment, under the same lighting, receives the same nutrition and follows the same schedule. The only variable... The genetics. Watching each phenotype develop its own personality while removing as many environmental variables as possible is exactly what makes this project so fascinating. Today we're checking in with Plant B. 🌱 Week Five – Finding Her Rhythm If last week was about recovery after topping, this week was all about momentum. Plant B responded beautifully to the cut, quickly redirecting her energy into the new leading shoots while the lower branches accelerated their own growth. She's still carrying that compact structure I mentioned previously, but she's beginning to spread out much more naturally now. The canopy is becoming wider, the internodal spacing remains wonderfully tight, and every branch seems determined to compete for the top. One thing that continues to impress me is how symmetrical she is becoming. She almost looks like she planned every branch herself. The stem has thickened considerably over the past week, giving me confidence that she'll comfortably support the heavy flowers later in the grow. 🌡️ Blue Tent Environment Consistency continues to be the biggest priority inside the Blue Tent. This week's average conditions were: • 🌡️ Day Temperature: 30°C • 🌙 Night Temperature: 25°C • 💧 Relative Humidity: 58% • ⚗️ pH: 5.8 • ⚡ EC: 1.92 mS/cm • 💨 CO₂: 450 ppm • 💡 Light Schedule: 18/6 • 💧 Irrigation: 1.2 litres per plant per day Although daytime temperatures climbed slightly this week, the plants continued growing vigorously with no signs of stress, demonstrating just how resilient healthy plants become when the root zone remains stable. 🥥 Feeding & Irrigation One of the biggest differences between this project and my previous organic soil grows is the irrigation strategy. Because coco doesn't store nutrients the same way soil does, the plants are fed little and often rather than receiving larger irrigations every few days. Each plant now receives approximately 1.2 litres of nutrient solution every day through the automatic Mars Hydro drip irrigation system. A drip irrigation system slowly delivers nutrient solution directly onto the growing medium through small emitters positioned at each plant. Rather than watering by hand, every irrigation is delivered evenly and consistently, ensuring every plant receives exactly the same amount. Once the nutrient solution has travelled through the coco, the excess runoff drains away through the automatic drainage system beneath each grow bag. This is just as important as the irrigation itself. Removing runoff prevents old nutrient solution from accumulating around the roots, helping maintain a healthier and more stable root environment while dramatically reducing the daily workload. As someone who has spent years hand-watering plants, I genuinely appreciate how much time this system saves while improving consistency at the same time. The current feeding schedule is: • Plagron Hydro A — 1.9 ml/L • Plagron Hydro B — 1.9 ml/L • Plagron Hydro Roots — 1 ml/L The slight increase from last week continues producing exactly the response I was hoping for, with richer colour and strong, healthy new growth. 🕸️ Preparing the SCROG This week also marked another exciting milestone. The SCROG net officially entered the grow. SCROG stands for Screen Of Green. Rather than allowing each branch to grow vertically on its own, a horizontal net is placed above the canopy. As branches grow through the openings they're gently guided sideways, encouraging the plant to spread across the entire growing area. Instead of producing one dominant cola, the plant develops dozens of equally exposed flowering sites. The result is a flatter canopy, more efficient light distribution and, hopefully, a much larger overall harvest. At this stage the net isn't there to hold flowers. It's there to guide the architecture of the plant. Over the coming weeks I'll continue weaving each branch through the net one square at a time, allowing the canopy to fill naturally before flowering begins. Watching this process unfold is honestly one of my favourite parts of growing. 🌿 Blue Waffle F1 – Plant B Plant B continues living up to the personality she's been developing since the beginning. Calm. Balanced. Methodical. She isn't trying to be the tallest plant in the tent.Instead she's quietly building an incredibly organised structure that should become a fantastic SCROG candidate over the next few weeks. Sometimes the plants that grow the slowest early on end up delivering the biggest surprises later. I'm very curious to see whether she's one of them. 👀 Looking Ahead Next week should be all about training. With the SCROG now installed and both new leaders growing strongly after topping, the real canopy shaping begins. From here onwards the objective changes completely. We're no longer trying to grow taller plants. We're trying to grow wider ones. Every branch will now be guided with one simple goal... To create an even canopy capable of making the absolute most of every photon produced by the Zamnesia Phytonaut LED. The adventure is becoming even more exciting. 💙 Thank You A huge thank you goes to Zamnesia for making Project Blue Tent possible, from these incredible Blue Waffle F1 genetics to the complete ecosystem surrounding this grow. A heartfelt thank you to Plagron for providing the Premium Coco Growbags together with the Hydro nutrient line that continues making my transition into coco both enjoyable and educational. A special thank you to Mars Hydro for the automatic drip irrigation and drainage system that has become an essential part of this project. Although this isn't a sponsored product, it's one of those pieces of equipment that simply works. It has brought consistency, cleanliness and peace of mind to the grow room while allowing me to spend more time with the plants and less time managing runoff. Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving growers from all around the world a place to document their journeys, learn from one another and build such an incredible community. And finally... Thank you to every single person reading these updates. Whether you've been here since the first seed cracked, recently discovered Project Blue Tent, leave comments every week, quietly follow along, or simply enjoy the photographs, every visit, every conversation, every question and every word of encouragement helps make this journey even more rewarding. I hope you're all having an amazing week, and I can't wait to share the next chapter of this adventure with you. Until then... Growers Love, happy growing, and I'll see you all next week. 🌱💙

I was finally able to sex them all. 1 Male/Hermie, and the rest have beautiful white pistles forming. They are starting to go through a stretch now as well. I also ordered some more grow lights 3 Mars Hydo TS1000's. I can't wait for those to arrive.)

Hey guys! Sorry for the big delay since my previous grow! Right now I'm growing some babies from Royal Queen Seeds! Kali Dog! 😃 The first week was calm! The babies broke out from their shells rather fast and two babies grew out of their jiffy pods rather fast! Also, since the strain is Kali Dog I decided to name each of the plants with a different dog name! I'm still unsure about the names but the first two are called Roko and Max! For the first time I also noticed the first buds looked... different? You'll be able to see them in the photos tho... and once again two of my babies are suffering from helmet head 😰 But eh, I'm used to it. Gladly it's an easy error to fix. I'll try to make a longer timelapse (these were bad!) but I didn't know my camera battery wasn't enough for long sessions 😝 Anyway, thanks for reading! See you all next week! 👋
