Daily feeding, Heavy flushing this week to balance PH and EC. Recalibrated PH and EC Meters.(Found PH meter of by .3 lower than meter showing, and EC was .3 Higher than what meter was reading.) Working the smaller side of the tent to the scrog net and planning to flip to flower in the next 2-4 Days about 2 weeks behind schedule due to Slower growth on the left side of the tent. Flip at end of week.

I need to share a secret about Black Widow. This report is about the second nut. The first one I soaked 17 days earlier. On day 13, it really slowed down after the transfer, so I just left it in the sun under the strawberry plant. Now it's been through two prunings and one nitrogen deficiency (the main stem was very red). I put it in a DWC bucket. It throws roots beautifully. What I've learned about DWC: Use it only after 1–2 weeks of rooting. In hot weather, enzymes really help deal with flowering. With them, pH stays stable at 5.9 even at +28°C. The solution stays clean. Also, Hesi Root helps the roots survive the scorching heat (temps around +29°C, close to critical +30). And a CO₂Bag – without it, growth would stall. She drinks little by little. Speaking of simplicity: my DWC runs on 15 liters of solution, using the simplest setup – an AquaPot for about 22 EUR, including the air pump. That's it. And the real simplicity is in the base Hesi line: one bottle for veg, one for bloom. Compare that to Canna – they need two bottles for each stage. Minimalism wins. In the background – the second widow, which this report is about. She's flawless and planted in 15L of coco (Simplex Coco and UGRO RHIZA). Mixed in once: Powder Feeding Bio Grow 3 g/L and Bio Bloom 4 g/L. The second one is already throwing flowers and slowing down in growth. The first one, on hydro, I switched to 12/12 several weeks later, so she's in no hurry. I'm happy to have the chance to try the full HESI HYDRO kit on coco at +29°C and on DWC without chillers, for about 330 EUR, no pH controllers or solution meters. I like minimalism, and it makes me happy when I can make it work in growing too. I missed one week – may the doctor forgive me.

-3/26/23 Start of Week --Week 1 -3/28/23 (day 10) --Observations: spade leaves looking healthy and first set of shade leaver are coming in. has stopped growing vertically and has started focusing on leaf growth, leaves growing at a good speed. --changes: sprayed with Miracle-Gro performance organics all purpose plant nutrients at a concentration of 1/4 Tsp to 10 oz of water. --Diary Entry: still growing at a good rate, doesn't seem like much transplant shock if any at all. sprayed with nutrient water twice, the second time was just for the photograph. will wait two days before spraying again, will be looking for signs of nutrient burn. -3/30/23 (day 12) --Observations: has slowed down on vertical growth. --Diary Entry: took the picture for today with a different lens than the last photo. watered without the nutrients, sprayed with the nutrient water. -4/1/23 (Day 14) --Observations: seems to have slowed down on growth rate, could have just been explosive early growth. firsty set of shade leaves are looking good, still seems to not be having problems with the nutrient spray given once to twice a day. --Diary Entry: several close up photos this week and im glad that fast Buds made a comment on the fast flower contest about needing a video every week. would have been upset if I would have been disqualified at the end because of something as silly as not having any videos of the plant. -4/1/23 End of Week

To be honest, I was very surprised by this girl :) I didn't expect her to grow so much, so far everything looks good :) to be honest, I don't even know how she grows so much, where there is minimal sun :).

Por ahora llevamos unas 16 horas desde que empezamos a germinar, pronto metere actualizacion de estado :D 05/04/22 -- Actualizacion de estado: Bien pues he subido mas fotos y os explico: Las mas grandes se empezaron a germinar el 22/03/22 y las mas peques 1 semana despues, el dia 29/03/22 Las GDP (grand daddy purple) no salieron y las descarte. Creo que pasaron mas frio que las demas y fue fallo mio. -- Actualizacion 11/04/22 Las mas grandes empiezo ya a contar 1º semana de crecimiento a partir de este lunes 11/04/22 y en 2 semanas maximo transplantamos a 7L definitivas

Permant marker the one seedling I could not be more happy with. It has a distinct different look to it than any other plant in the tent with strong growth going on. I'm sad about the other seedling thou the 1st set of leaves were kinda deformed and it has like a spiral thing going on where new growth comes from. Hopefully it comes back around, I always like seeing atleast 2 phenos of a strain I feel it gives you a better idea of what a strain is. It's looking like a good start to a week the plants are strong they are getting to the point I can let the dried dry out completely. I'm thinking by the end of this week the plants will be starting to be sold. Last week I put all the plants into my bigger 2x4 tent with my medicgrow mini sun 2 the 500w version. Only a few of the plants were ready for that light. Seems like the only plants that really have good resistance and have a strong start are the weedseedsexpress.com seeds. Shout out to weedseedsexpress.com for the strong plants. I ended up putting all the plants back into my 2x2 tent with the 55w amazon light it has alot more blue light in its spectrum. It's kinda weird b4 I switched the plants to the 2x4 tent they were getting 220umol under my amazon 55w led then when I put them under the 500w light 25% strength about 50in from plants and they were getting only about 195umol in that tent but it was stressing most the plants. I assume a larger light has more side lighting hitting the plants. I think when useing larger lights it's good to measure umols from the top but also coming from the sides. I think durring seedling stage they only need about 50% the umols coming from the side the plants as the top is receiving. When I put the plants back in the small tent about the same umols as they were getting b4 the switch and they were still a little stressed. So for a few days I put the small light at the top the tent giving them 100umols for a few hrs then 130umols the rest the day.

1st week of transition in the books and they continue to advance slowly, albeit with limited signs of the start of stretch. Side branching development continues to be a challenge with the excessive fan leaf growth - it’s like the plant is just pushing all its resources into making bigger leaves so it’s been a constant battle to cut back the growth that keeps overshadowing the lowers. We’ll see where it goes but I remain unimpressed with overall growth characteristics. No deficiency issues and plants have yet to sexually mature to determine gender and final count. Alls good👍.

4/9/25 This plant is beyond frosty. Stacking up super nicely. Seems like she will yeild quite a bit. My only gripe is that she has like no smell at all. Using the foil as a soil cover is working quite nicely. the top soil is getting filled with roots quite well. Top dressed 1tsp of Bloom 1tsp microbe charge 1tsp bloom

Well I’ve flipped the light schedule. We’re on 12/12. It’s only been 4 days and they’re definitely getting their stretch on! Let’s see what happens over the next week or so…

Hey sorry das ich es nicht vorher geschafft habe bzw nicht komplett dokumentiert habe aber die Pflanzen machen sich gut für die Umstände vor der Blüte haben die Pflanzen Nährstoff Probleme gezeigt oder das kommt von dem Insektizid das ich angewendet habe weil ich mit trauermücken zutun hatte

I cleaned out the reservoir and switched from Veg to Bloom nutrients on day 36. My 35% Hydrogen Peroxide arrived, and that definitely makes a difference with keeping the reservoir cleaner longer, although I am still cleaning it maybe every 10 days or so, just a quick 2 min scrub with bleach/water, and then i run it through the pump and lines as well, then run plain water through it before hooking it all back up. The ONLY water I have used from my well this grow has been to clean my reservoir, everything else has come from my dehumidifer. I am now using some Cal Mag, Maxi Bloom, AND some Liquid Kool Bloom. I am running an EC of about 1450. My runoff from Coco is coming in around 1490 EC. Not seeing any issues with the ladies, just worried I may have waited a little too long to switch from Veg to Bloom Nutes, although I was adding about 25% Bloom for the past week or so. I guess we will see here soon if she gets some bigger flowers. Thanks for checking me out, and Blaze On!
