LEGEND: 🌡️- Temp High ❄️ - Temp Low 🌧️ - Humidity High ☁️ - Humidity Low 📈 - VPD High 📉 - VPD Low I have to start the week by giving a BIG shout to @FrontRowAG_BrianG If you aren't following this man, I highly suggest you do so. Wealth of knowledge and some eye popping, jaw dropping diaries. WATCH THE VIDEOS! I put mosquito dunks (lil bits) in my standing water buckets just as a safeguard against any eggs or larvae. Picked up a bottle of AN's B-52 and added that into to the feed schedule. I turned off one of the lamps in favor of all 6 under one lamp at full power. Really no point in wasting the hydro and spacing them out this early. Going to continue with the simulated sunrise/sunset by turning the lamp down to 60% two hours before lights off, and back up to 100% two hours after lights on. End of Week Goals: 1- Raise EC from 1.3 to 1.7 ✅ 2- Maintain plant canopy height (LST)✅ 3- See an improvement/elimination of gnats✅ 4- 2nd topping 5- Removing all the lower-inside growth tips ✅ 6- Raise temps ✅ I want to have everything in order to ensure a smooth transition to bloom next week. Aug 15 No watering. I've increased the lights on temperature to 28c/78F and the humidity still sits between 55-65%. I had a thought about the leaf curl I was having and after all the troubleshooting, it may have actually been TOO COLD! Waiting to see what a few days of warmer temperatures does for them. My lights OFF temperature was also too low for the amount of humidity in the room. I was probably in danger of WPM if I didn't make the changes so now lights off temps are around 23-24c. Also keeps VPD in range. Starting to feel better about this run. Watering tonight if I don't get too drunk on the golf course today. 🌡️: 27.5c ✅ ❄️: 23.4c✅ 🌧️: 62.1%✅ ☁️: 57.8%✅ 📈: 1.3 (Slightly high last few hrs of lights on) 📉: 0.95 ✅ Aug 16 PM (2-3L @ 24c) "KC1 In: 1.5 EC/5.9 pH Out: 1.4 EC/5.9 pH (22c) (-0.1 EC)✅ "KC2 In: 1.5 EC/5.9 pH Out: 1.1 EC/5.9 pH (22c) (-0.4 EC)✅ "GS In: 1.5 EC/5.9 pH Out: 1.5 EC/5.9 pH (22c) (--EC--)✅ "ELB In: 1.5 EC/5.9 pH (3L) Out: 1.5 EC/6.0 pH (22c) (--EC--)✅ *MC In: 1.5 EC/5.9 pH Out: 1.2 EC/6.0 pH (22c) (-0.3 EC)✅ *CG In: 1.5 EC/5.9 pH Out: 1.0 EC/6.0 pH (23c) (-0.5 EC)✅ 🌡️: 27.7c✅ ❄️: 23.4c✅ 🌧️: 65.4%✅ ☁️: 58.6%✅ 📈: 1.27 (Slightly high last few hrs of lights on) 📉: 0.99 ✅ Hungry girls for the most part. Will do another fertigation or two at 1.5 EC and move up to 1.7 end of week. As much as I want to flip to bloom next week, I'm thinking another week of veg will get them a bit beefier. Aug 17 (1L @ 5.8 pH / 24c) Mix: 8ml A, 8ml B: 4L water = 1.8 EC (+2L water = 1.5 EC) No runoff on this event. Not entirely shocking as I boosted temps the last few days. VPD is actually really good for most of the day, with the exception of about 4 hours at the end of the light period. Temperatures stay in the high 70's/low 80's but humidity will drop from low-mid 60's to mid-high 50's (just outside of the ideal range). This concept is relatively new to me so I'm not going to do TOO much to correct that. With my day temperatures around 80F I need humidity at 60% minimum and I'm in the 57/62% range. So close. I may just lower day time temperatures a hair and that may do it. Lights off VPD is pretty much bang on now that I've boosted temps to 74F. 🌡️: 26.7c✅ ❄️: 22.6⬆️ 🌧️: 68.1% ✅ ☁️: 56.2% ⬆️ 📈: 1.22 ⬇️ 📉: 0.9 ✅ Aug 18 PM (1/2-1L @ 24c) Mix: 8ml A, 8ml B: 4L water = 1.8 EC (+2L water = 1.5 EC) • No runoff 🌡️: 27.5c✅ ❄️: 23.6c ✅ 🌧️: 64.8% ✅ ☁️: 55.3%⬆️ 📈: 1.17 ✅ 📉: 1.1 ✅ Another fertigation without runoff. Although KC/GS had a very small amount in the catch dish. Wondering if I should let it dry out for a day. Getting some low humidity towards the end of the light cycle and that raises the VPD for the last 4 hours or so. I'm going to set multiple starts and stops on the exhaust fan timer to allow humidity to build/drop when needed. Aug 19 • No water 🌡️: 27.9c🆗 ❄️: 23.3c⬆️ 🌧️: 62.7%🆗 ☁️: 56.5% 🆗 📈: 1.32⬇️ 📉: 1.17✅ Had a busy day and didn't get into the room. Humidity is still a little low for the light period and a bit high for the dark period. The dehumidifier spikes the temps up near 26 so running the intake with it should keep it down. Big water tonight and runoff test. See how they handle two days of light watering and a full day off. Aug 20 PM (3L @ 23c) Mix: 16ml CaMg, 16ml A, 16ml B, 12ml B52 : 8L water = 2.1 EC) "KC1 In: 1.7 EC/5.7 pH Out: 1.6 EC/6.5 pH (24c) (-0.1 EC) ✅ "KC2 In: 1.7 EC/5.7 pH Out: 1.6 EC/6.5 pH (22c) (-0.1 EC) ✅ "GS In: 1.7 EC/5.7 pH Out: 1.9 EC/6.0 pH (23c) (+0.2 EC)✅ "ELB In: 1.7 EC/5.7 pH Out: 1.9 EC/5.8 pH (24c) (+0.2 EC)✅ *MC In: 1.7 EC/5.7 pH (2.25L) Out: 2.1 EC/6.1 pH (24c) (+0.4 EC)🆗 *CG In: 1.7 EC/5.7 pH (2.25 L) ✅ Out: 1.9 EC/6.2 pH (23c) (+0.2 EC) • Run another 1L through all @ 1.7 EC / 5.5 pH) • Only a few flies, no new on traps Event 2 (1L) "KC1 In: 1.7 EC/5.5 pH Out: 1.5 EC/6.1 pH (24c) (-0.2 EC) ✅ "KC2 In: 1.7 EC/5.5 pH Out: 1.4 EC/6.2 pH (23c) (-0.3 EC) ✅ "GS In: 1.7 EC/5.5 pH (2L) Out: 1.7 EC/6.0 pH (23c) (--EC--) ✅ "ELB In: 1.7 EC/5.5 pH (2L) Out: 1.9 EC/6.0 pH (23c) (+0.2 EC) ✅ *MC In: 1.7 EC/5.5 pH Out: 1.8 EC/6.2 pH (23c) (+0.1 EC) ✅ *CG In: 1.7 EC/5.5 pH Out: 1.8 EC/6.2 pH (23c) (+0.1 EC) ✅ 🌡️: 27.9c ✅ ❄️: 23.8c ✅ 🌧️: 65% ✅ ☁️: 60.6% ✅ 📈: 1.1-1.3 🆗⬇️ 📉: 0.9✅ We're doing alright after three days of relatively no water. First runoffs out of the bags were about 2.2-2.4 EC. After draining out, the numbers were a lot closer to base. I decided to run another liter through them to try to drop the pH a bit. Runoff pH is high across the board but I'm not sure how much I should care about that. A lot websites say the runoff pH doesn't matter because you're replacing it with a new pH'd solution. I feel like it matters though. Chime in if you know how concerned I should be with runoff pH rising, even though I'm dropping the solution pH. Curious. I took another cutting from the GS and two from CG. I've got 2 cuts (KC/ELB) already showing roots so I'll be buffering more coco at some point this week. Aug 21 PM (1/2-1L @ 1.8 EC/5.6 pH/22c) Mix: 12ml A, 12ml B, 7ml Tea: 6L water = 1.8 EC • New mix added to approx 2L of last one • Little to no runoff from 1L • Spaced out plants and turned on 2nd lamp 🌡️: 27.9c✅ ❄️: 22.1 c ⬆️❌ 🌧️: 65%✅ (until midnight) ☁️: 50.6%⬆️❌ 📈: 1.43⬇️ (Humidity dropped from probe on lamp) 📉: 0.81-1.02 ✅ (23-24c / 60-65%) • Probe dropped near a lamp and "boosted" the temp • Actually dropped humidity by triggering fans • Low humidity all night (50-55%) Last day of VEG. Bad luck with my temperature probe... it dropped from it's hook and landed on the top of a lamp, causing the hot sensor to activate the fans. Humidity dropped all night. We've raised the EC to 1.8, with the substrate reaching as high as 2.4 with no signs of nute burn. I'm honestly not believing what I'm seeing. This EC is scary to me because this is usually where I'd be at peak bloom. So I've been underfertilizing and not paying attention to VPD as much as I should. Hammer time.

As I did the flushing in day 70 I was watching the trichomes and on day 87 I could see 25-35% amber so I decided to cut it. I cut the whole plant on the base and hang the whole plant to dry. For this reason I will update my findings later when it gets dry and trimmed about yield and numbers. So far really happy with the results. It will probably be the champs of this run yielding nicely 👍🏼.

Die Pflanzen haben sich auch in dieser Woche gut gemacht. Man kann den unterschied zwischen sativa und indika gut erkennen. Die beiden hinteren pflanzen sind Girl scout Cookie und Sweet Candy und die vorderen super Silver haze und Berry bomb . Der Weinballon blubbert noch mäßig vor sich hin und jeden zweiten Tag stelle ich ein Gefäß mit Wasser und 4 CO2 Tabletten mit ins Zelt. Ich bin sehr zufrieden mit dem gegenwärtigen Wachstum und Entwicklung der Pflanzen. Ich spiele mit dem Gedanken ein zweites Zelt zu kaufen und im Wechsel auch Automatik anzupflanzen um die Wartezeit zur Ernte mit einem kurzfristigen Grow zu belohnen. Dafür rauche ich nicht einmal. Dieses Hobby habe ich meinem Sohn zu verdanken. Er ist so selbstlos und testet die Ergebnisse für mich. Dann wird er sie bewerten ,da ich das leider nicht kann. Habe überlegt vielleicht Edibles herzustellen. Candys, Pralinen oder Gebäck. Wäre dankbar für Erfahrungen und Rezepte . Aber bis dahin werde ich den Mädels noch beim Wachsen zusehen. Ich wünsche euch noch eine schöne Zeit und halte euch weiterhin auf dem Laufenden. Bis nächsten Sonntag.

Milky Way F1s have been cut down! beautiful colours, beautiful scents! pretty straight forward grow!! good results again with RQS. Gave them both a quick little defoliation before hanging. They'll be in a closet with a small fan for about 8 or 9 days.

2/22/24 - Day 108 - ok yall harvest is done! I'm exhausted! It took about 3hrs. There were a few things that I will highlight the differences. I have tons of pictures and video to go through. I'll update later...... I'm tired! 2/23/24 - Day 109 - Everything went really well yesterday. I was able to cut the harvest time from 9 hrs last time to 3 hrs this time. Here are some of the details on this. Last time I hung each branch on its own, it took forever to use the twist ties and then to hang each one. This time i used some drying nets. The only problem with the drying nets is for sure there will be one side that is going to be flat..... it's still going to smoke the same and if it saves me 5 hrs. then I'm doing that. LOL I also decided this time not to wet trim the buds before putting them up to dry. I did remove fan leaves that had 0 THC on them, but if there was a leaf sticking from a bud and it had THC on it i left it. That also saved me some time. The bud quality was better this time around, the buds are denser and more compact. I also had almost NO popcorn buds. The last grow I had 2 to 3 ounces in popcorn schwag buds. They were tasty and great but this time around every bud was a legit contender. This could be due to having more space, I used an Auto in the box this time. I thought Autos would be difficult to control in this space limited environment, but it was the exact opposite. It's just as easy if not easier to grow an Auto in this Magic Box. I think its important to note that anything I talk about here is from my own experience, I've purchased everything with my own money and no one pays me for my reviews or details. This is such a labor of LOVE for me. They day I get a job in the Cannabis industry is the day I stop working, at that point it would just be me living my dream having a BLAST! That being said if you would like this same exact experience here are the tools i have used. Growing Box: www.getleaf.co Seeds: www.Sensiseeds.com Strain: Skunk#1 Curing Bucket Controller: www.ACInfinity.com Last thing I want to share before my next update of dry weight. If you want to see even more photos and videos from my last grow (GovernMint Oasis) along with any new grows im working on you can check out my Instagram (@ChumpkillaOG). I update almost daily with new details on my grows. Ill go into more detail on how or why I did something. I have not posted about this Skunk#1 grow yet, that will be the next few weeks' worth of content. So, if you want to see a lot more documentation throughout these grows check me out @ChumpkillaOG. I would absolutely appreciate the likes, shares, and follows! 2/25/24 - Day 111 - There was no place that I saw to add the dry weight. I finished the harvest today and now it sits to cure. Final weight 364.5gams! Not quite a pound but very close! This strain came out really well, the bud quality with this strain is better than the last grow. It only gets better. See yall on the next one!

Flipped ‘em to flower about a week ago. So far to my untrained eyes they’re looking great. I’m watering ever three days and feeding once every other watering. Mixture of fox farms nutrients (disregard amounts in stats above) at like 25-40 percent of full strength. Ppm was 700 and ppfd is 700-800 according to Photone. Disregard the little fella in the solo cup. I never transplanted it and just kept it in there. Now I’m just keeping it as a bonus plant plus to learn leaf symptoms, etc. I’m really excited to guide these through the home stretch! They’re already way bigger than my last, and first, harvest.
