Still looks like crap but I'm letting her do her thing. I didn't have the heart to cull it, and I wanted to see how resilient this girl could be. I top dressed her and gave her some nutes. She's looking better than she did so that's encouraging. We'll see what happens in the next couple weeks until she finishes.

Intermediate Results Overview This grow was intense! Setting up the grow consumed so much of my time and focus that I started slacking at work, and it took me a month to get back on track. But hey, what’s the point of a job if it gets in the way of growing? 😉 In the end, everything worked out, and I gained invaluable experience. This was my first grow using coco coir. At first, I didn’t get it, but then it just clicked! Now I’m hooked: "I’m here to stay." Coco is more controlled than soil, flushes easily, and you can introduce beneficial microbes, which thrive in it. My main takeaway from this grow? If you buy coco, don’t forget CalMag! Next time, I’ll definitely install HEPA filters at the intake. The amount of dust was insane, and the grow box pulls air like a vacuum cleaner. Watching the timelapse, you can see the box sucking in every bit of dust. I vacuumed the intake filters weekly. The plant was incredibly sticky, but that also meant it caught a lot of lint and fibers between trichomes, especially visible under a microscope. Smoking microplastics? No, thank you! --- On CO2 CO2 only works if everything else is dialed in. If the plant experiences stress from deficiencies or overfeeding, you can forget about it. Since CO2 supplementation requires turning off the exhaust fan, it’s hard to manage temperature and humidity. The plant releases so much moisture that RH jumps to 80% within minutes. It’s doable, but definitely a challenge. --- On Magnetic Fields No clue what’s happening here yet, but it’s fascinating! I’ll test again with a control sample. --- Nutrients Dreams do come true—I’ve tested almost everything Advanced Nutrients offers. It wasn’t all smooth sailing; their feeding charts need adjustments for your conditions, and you usually need to feed less than recommended. Overall, I’d say the nutrients performed 100%, and I see no reason to switch. I’ll stick with them for future grows. --- Strain This strain is reliable, though not the most productive. It flowered exactly as advertised and delivered a frosty finish. It tolerated all my mistakes like a champ—especially mold. Despite an abandoned SCROG plan turning the plant into a bouquet, there wasn’t a single mold spot, even in the densely packed lower buds that got almost no light. Zero mold issues! --- Aroma As advertised: pine, wood, and citrus. At first, I thought it smelled like grapefruit, but now I’m leaning toward bergamot. Bergamot with a classic weed aroma—a recognizable twist on the usual scent. During the grow, the smell was strong, but the carbon filter handled it perfectly. --- Flavor It’s too early to say, but the flavor is definitely there! Embarrassingly, all my past harvests tasted the same—like nothing. Just smoke. This one has a distinct sour taste. I’m excited to see how it develops after curing. --- Effect Too early for a full review, but I love what I’ve tried so far. The high lasts about three hours, with euphoria and relaxation. It’s the perfect evening strain. I’ve smoked a lot over the years, but I’ve never experienced true euphoria—until now. Guess I’ve been stuck with garbage and ditch weed before. 😅 It’s not a strain for productivity or chores, but it’s perfect for chilling, watching something, or chatting. No anxiety, just great vibes. It feels like having a beer after a long day: you relax, and life feels good again. --- Roots The roots were healthy—maybe too healthy! While the AirPot (20L) prevented root circling, it didn’t eliminate it entirely. There were dead zones at the bottom where roots circled around the perimeter. A dense root mat formed at the bottom (so dense you couldn’t poke a finger through it), which likely contributed to salt buildup. Breaking through that mat required more water, and I suspect this caused EC to spike 1.5x the next day if there was no runoff. Next time, I’ll mix some pumice with the substrate at the bottom, about 3–4 cm deep. --- Timelapse I only got the timelapse running after the switch to flowering, so it’s not from the beginning. Still, it’s an incredibly useful tool for understanding growth rates. I’ll definitely use it for future grows. Comparing yesterday to today is one thing, but rewinding a week to see how things were is game-changing. I recommend it! You can even use an old phone with a timelapse app if your camera doesn’t support it by default. --- What’s Next I’ve grown fat buds before, but I’ve always neglected curing. This time, I’m doing it by the book with full control. Drying in the grow box with RH controlled at 50–60% (averaging 55%) for a slow, even dry. Temps are kept between 20–23°C, with frequent venting to keep it below 21°C for terpene preservation. After 7–10 days, when small stems snap with a characteristic sound, I’ll trim and jar them with humidity sensors. For the first two weeks, I’ll burp the jars twice daily, then reduce to once daily for the next two weeks. After that, I’ll monitor the RH sensors and adjust as needed. I’ll share the details after curing is complete. After drying, I’ll weigh the buds, take photos, and share another post in a month or two after curing to report on the flavor and aroma. For now, I’m taking a breather, fine-tuning my setup, and preparing for my next grow: Wizard Trees - Zangria S1.

My friends raved about this strain. Great taste great high and density was fantastic! Overall five stars and I only did one plant because I only had one seed and I may grow this one again. I always LST my plants and I got almost 7 ounces off of this one with only about six weeks of veg.

Final week at most! Going to keep a close eye on the important part from here on out. Smell has picked up big time over the last week. Almost there!

This was a fun grow. Today I took them down to hang dry (2.6.23) I'm gone do a 10 or more dry. Next grow coming soon

swelling up nicely. pics out off the tent are from the last day off week 5. day 35 of flower

30.7. - 06.08. Die Blüten werden fetter und riechen sehr lecker. Bis auf Wasser gießen und ein bisschen Ackerschachtelhalm Tee füttern musste ich nicht viel machen.

its been a hot dry week but the girls have fared it well. mound design and soil content have helped keep moisture in the root ball of the plants. Hopefully we get some rain this week otherwise im going to be spending a day just watering them. fingers crossed for rain. We need a rain dance here.

Looking very good and healthy on to 12/12 she goes

1 week left until i flip, the blue dream and white runtz are lagging behind but the pineapple express, and ghost train are begging for flower! day 54, and what a beautiful first grow it has been so far, these girls have responded well to all the punishment i could dish out in training and have responded with a beautiful even canopy. cannot wait to see them flower day 55, midday, lights are off for the next 36 hours to expedite the flowering process.

DAY 50 Defoliated a bit, hoping to slow her down, but I'm writing this day 51 and she is 94cm now.. unstoppable! 😶 Pre-flower started day 40. So maybe we can walk thru the fire with our heads straight.. 🙏 DAY 52 99cm now. Watered with Biobizz, did a normal bloom dosage.. 💧 I will be raising calmag a bit now, EC of water will be 0,6-0,7. DAY 54 108cm :crane: DAY 55 114cm 😬 😬 😬 Watered with 4L nutrient solution + 1L BioEnhancer solution 💧 🐟 Removed some lower stems in the shades. Twisted the two long stems with shorter stems from the sides, so the shorter stems are more in the middle, the longer stems are more at the edges now. 😅 DAY 56 118cm.. :metal: Thinking about a ZZ Top logo.. maybe I will have to drastically snap the two branches.. I actually feel adventurous about it. 😎 ... 2 hours later: I did it, I snapped the stems (not completely). Let's pray for healing. 🙏 The stems make the ingwaz rune now, the seed. Oh so metaphorical. 😤 It represents taking time to grow & transform, peace, silence, bursting into manifestation. ✨ Which reminds me of the pollen in the freezer.. it's time now! 🐝 LED running at 100% now. Distance is between 25 and 40cm. 💚 Wishing you a great week! 😘 __________________________________________________ SET UP Mars Hydro LED TS1000 sponsored by @marshydrococo2 😘 https://www.mars-hydro.com/led-grow-lights/ts-1000-led-grow-light custom exhaust fan 270/320 m³/h 3x Garden High Pro fans 5W tap water EC 0,25 - adding Calmag (Plant Magic) to EC 0,4-0,6 - adding pH minus Bloom (AHH) to pH 6,5 biobizz Lightmix - later Plantaflor organic tomato soil 🍅

The Blue Dream is a plant with a very short internodal distance, at least this type that we found is reacting by remaining small, but the brunches are moving forward and I also bend them. Remember that we are growing 1 Plant worked with the techniques and one left to grow without cutting techniques with a bit of LST. In this diary we find the plant that is growing with this mainlining: topping third internode, wait 3 internodes doing LST, Topping again, LST on brunches. The comparison is the salt of the experience so the plant in the other diary will be worked very differently go and see it to compare them. We have started the Plagron fertilization program, we are in 100% organic configuration, the soil is recycled Promix + 1/3 fresh soil + 10% Perlite + RQS Mycorrhiza Mix (4 g in the mix, 1 g under the small fiber pot). We are administering // 1 ml/l Power Roots - 1 ml/l Pure Zym - 1 ml/l Sugar Royal - 3 ml/l Alga Grow We have sprayed Vita Race Foliare 3 ml/l. https://plagron.com/en The doubts about the compatibility between Pure Zym and mycorrhizae have been dispelled, they can get along according to Plagron experts. If someone tells you that enzymes eat mycorrhizae, which in principle may seem possible, explain to them that it is not true. https://www.royalqueenseeds.it/growing/452-easy-roots-mix-di-micorrhize.html Try this strain it promises more than good ---- // https://www.zamnesia.io/en/3271-zamnesia-seeds-blue-dream-feminized.html Short Description Zamnesia // Exceptionally tasty and potent, Blue Dream by Zamnesia Seeds is a hybrid with a distinctive and sophisticated character.

She went from 40cm to 73cm within 5 days. Week 5. Day 1

Day 15 - Fresh tank and not much new to report. pH was remaining incredibly stable through last week so skipped a fresh feed week. 300A doing its job keeping the water at a nice 19C. As noted, girls got topped a couple of days ago. They're rebounding nicely. Will start some LST on the branches now through the week. Will be the usual balance pH at the start of the week and hopefully stabilise quickly. Using the Botanicare kind ratios (Expert Recipe) if not the same volumes so base to grow is 2 to 3 ratio this week. Thats about it for now (Will add some pics and last week time lapse in a bit when lights are on). Happy growing all!!! 💪

February 10 -Looking good so far and is already producing frost -she is moving fast but as expected as this strain goes for 45-52 days -Hopefully I can get an update on smells later this week

Stretched like crazy..
