Man this week has been taking forever, my theory is it will only get slower relative to harvest just because my excitement. I top dressed with about 2 inches of worm castings with an eyeballed mix of 2tbps of bone meal (3-14-0, bloom fert.), 1.5-2tbps of Gaia green all purp.(4-4-4, I don’t have an actual potassium fert. Like leingbenite So I use this), 3tbps of dr earth kelp meal (1-.05-2 has many different vitamins, amino acids, carbohydrates) and 2tbps of mykos (for microbiology inoculation and nutrient uptake/upkeep). So I every time I water I have this old 2gallon water tin that I usually fill up about a quarter to half way full. Using this amount of water and the 5 gallon bucket of my soil mix makes my watering schedule once every 3 days (on average). I do use bottle nutrients but it’s mainly for the supplementing. For feeding I use 2-3ml to half a gallon for all bottle nutrients, I have never gone over, and I have never had deficiency’s that can hinder plant development. Deficiency's: PSA: Now if anyone happens to read and actually look at my plants please do look closely and maybe let me know if you see something that I have missed since I’m still very new. I noticed my plant was having a cal mag issue so that’s why I top dressed with worm castings, I also top dressed with about 3tbps of azomite (I feel using azomite it may help with all those unnoticeable deficiency’s that a new grower might miss). I’ve been noticing on some of the leaves the very tips are showing discoloring, since the color is still so vibrant mostly I can rule out nitrogen, phosphorus, Iron, manganese, and sulphuric. It’s still very early stage so I did an extremely light foliage feeding (in the dark to prevent UV damage) of 2ml of big bud, big bloom, and tiger bloom, mixed into half a liter of water, I then emptied the spray bottle and sprayed with tap water just to make sure there’s no nute burning. Today I fed the plant through water amendments with 3ml of big bud, 3ml of bud candy, 3ml of big bloom, and 2ml of tiger bloom;(my theory is hopefully the nutrient deficiency’s will go away) My soil mix is pretty basic. 40% coco, 10% perlite, 10% well composted chicken manure, 20% black gold compost, 20% worm castings. I’m not going to put the fertilizer amendment percentage to be honest I eye ball it but there’s a rough general measurements that I do.

Wazzuuuup guy’s? So it’s week 7, the lady’s are officially on the flowering stage!! (Since 4/10) It’s all going very well, they are happy and so am I, been watering every 3-4 days with 1.2l each (before flowering I’ve watered with approximately 2l) and they have good colour and you can see some stretch. Well, not much but they are trained after all 🤷‍♂️🏻 Just some yellow leafs below the canopy but guess that’s normal, they are really needing some defoliation but I’m going to wait 2-3 weeks because I don’t want to stress them on this early stage I’m thinking about adding the scrog net but I don’t know if it’s too late for that, what do you guys think?

She's doing well!

Staked down and moved light 12 inches away from plants ration of 1to1 gallons when feeding Starting to see prer flower 🌼 There booming massive root balls these bitch chuncky

It has been another slow week for growth. I've been working to optimize the environment. This is my first indoor grow in Europe during winter and with this equipment. There are a lot of variables that I have to figure out. I've added an oil heater on a temperature controller and have been gradually raising temps over the last few days. I also think I underestimated how much moisture my soil mix retains and maybe I've had humidity in the tent a bit too high. Both seedlings look a bit waterlogged. To try and fix this I'll keep RH at 50% for the next few days and let the soil get properly dry before watering again. Hopefully this gets things back on track and there's some strong growth this week! 💪

Gracias al equipo de Seedsman y XpertNutrients sin ellos esto no sería posible. 💐🍁 Alaskan Do-Si-Dos: Alaskan Do-Si-Dos ha sido desarrollada por expertos como una versión mejorada de la siempre popular variedad Alaskan Purple de Seedsman. La introducción de la genética Do-Si-Dos en la Alaskan Purple ha creado un híbrido índica/sativa que aumenta la potencia y el rendimiento al mismo tiempo que mejora el perfil de sabor y sigue siendo versátil en lo que respecta al cultivo en exterior. La Alaskan Do-Si-Dos está destinada principalmente al cultivo al aire libre y en invernaderos. Las plantas crecen altas y prosperan en climas fríos, templados, cálidos y secos, al mismo tiempo que se desempeñan bien en altitud. Esto no impide que se cultive en interior, pero estas plantas grandes necesitarán mucho espacio. Las plantas muestran una resistencia moderada al moho pero, si se cultivan en interiores, hay que tener en cuenta que son RUIDOSAS, por lo que se beneficiará del uso de filtros de aire de carbón. En exterior, en latitudes septentrionales, la cosecha está prevista para finales de septiembre, mientras que en interior las plantas tardarán entre 8 y 10 semanas en completar la floración. Los rendimientos en exterior son muy altos y pueden superar fácilmente los 750gr/planta, mientras que en interior los rendimientos son elevados, hasta 600gr/m2. Los cogollos maduros tienen una densidad media y mantienen un color verde medio. 🌻🚀 Consigue aqui tus semillas: https://www.seedsman.com/eu-es/alaskan-do-si-dos-feminised-seeds-sman-aldsd-fem 🍣🍦🌴 Xpert Nutrients es una empresa especializada en la producción y comercialización de fertilizantes líquidos y tierras, que garantizan excelentes cosechas y un crecimiento activo para sus plantas durante todas las fases de cultivo.

Hey! Another week in flower and closer to harvest. Smelling like a candy store. Buds are maturing, things are running smoothly. Take care out there! One love Growers & tokers!

The BlackBerry Gum Auto didn't fit anymore, I had to bend it - 170 cm :) AutoXtreme blooms beautifully - 150cm Sorry for my English...

Hello growmies! Welcome to week four of An Epsilon Adventure! The girls are already transitioning into flower, I will get some photos of that later in the week. Massive thanks to both Shogun and Royal Queen Seeds for sponsoring this grow. Daily Updates: ### Week 4 Day 1 11:00 16/7 Removed some lower growth. ### Week 4 Day 2 23:00 17/7 Tallest plants were showing signs of heat stress so I have raised the light about 30cm more. Unfortunately this now means the lower plants aren't getting as much light as they could, so I have put the cycle back to 20h (I may even increase it). ### Week 4 Day 3 14:00 18/7 Photographed. ### Week 4 Day 3 19:00 18/7 Fertigated 2l. Okay these girls are now starting to concern me a little on the basis that they are supposed to grow to "50-70cm". At just over 3 weeks old the shortest of these girls is 53cm, the tallest (plant 3) is now 76cm tall. The worrying thing is they do not at all look like they are slowing down and as they are just pre-flowering now, the flowering stretch hasn't even started. So I need some genuine advice here now: Do I keep the faith and hope that they don't exceed the space I have? Do I top or super crop them now? These ladies are beastly, at the end of the week I am going to take some individual videos and more photos to really try and capture how magnificently well these girls are doing. I think I may be in the process of growing the biggest Epsilon F1's so far? Exciting to find out! ### Week 4 Day 4 21:00 19/7 James has assured me they wont go much more than 85 so I am not going to mess with them. They are due a defoliation at the end of this week though. Measured each plant as follows: Plant 1: 81cm Plant 2: 75cm Plant 3: 80cm Plant 4: 67cm Plant 5: 59cm Plant 6: 58cm Might photograph later or leave until tomorrow. ### Week 4 Day 5 10:00 20/7 Photographed and measured. Plant 1: 85cm Plant 2: 79cm Plant 3: 81cm Plant 4: 71cm Plant 5: 63cm Plant 6: 63cm So they've all grown about 4cm in about 13 hours, except plant 3 - which seems to have slowed down a lot. The top of plant 3 is also the most advanced looking in terms of pistils. I forgot to take close ups of the preflowers I will do that tomorrow. I have had to raise the light again today and it is now much further away than the younger plants than I would like. So I am thinking about adding a 300w LED into my 4x4. I have another 3 inches I can raise the light on the hangers, after that I can removed the adjustable handers and tie it to the top of the tent... that'll gain me another 4 or 5 inches. If I need to go higher my only option would be to set them up without the tent which is not an option right now. Hopefully they all just stop getting taller now and focus on flowering... but my gut tells me there's more growth to come. Watch this space! ### Week 4 Day 6 15:00 21/7 Measured. Average 10cm growth 29 hours. 😳😳😲 Plant 1: 96cm Plant 2: 89cm Plant 3: 88cm Plant 4: 81cm Plant 5: 73cm Plant 6: 72cm ### Week 4 Day 6 23:00 21/7 Defoliated. Only photographed plants 1 and 2 individually as I was short on time. Some lovely pics though! ### Week 4 Day 7 15:00 22/7 Fertigated. 2l Will photograph and measure later when they've had 24h since training. ### Week 4 Day 7 23:00 22/7 Photographed and measured: Plant 1: 102cm Plant 2: 93cm Plant 3: 89cm Plant 4: 85cm Plant 5: 76cm Plant 6: 75cm Well here we are at the end of week 4 and I am quite shocked by the growth of these girls. This strain averages 50-70cm in height. We have six plants here and every one of them is taller than the average... but would you just look at plant 1? She is a giant! 102cm!! Where will she stop? Next week will see the full transition to flower and we will start to see the bud sites developing. I have no idea at this point what the heights will look like at the end of next week. This is sort of new territory really, they weren't meant to get this big! --- Thanks for reading growmies! 👊 ========== Tent: 120cm x 120cm x 180cm Light: 600w HID Elite Dual Spectrum HPS + Angel Wing Reflector Air: 5" duct fan system with carbon filter ~300 m3/hour + RAM 9" floor fan + 4" intake fan Pots: Air Pruner Fabric Pots 30l - UGro XL Coco + horticultural grade perlite (~20%) Seeds supplied by Royal Queen Seeds https://www.royalqueenseeds.com Nutrients supplied by Shogun Fertilisers https://www.shogunfertilisers.com/en ==========

Day 14 Flowering: hi all. We have had another very happy week growing with these ladies from Zamnesia. The size and shapes that they are now formed into look so like cabbages with nice thick , green and bushy branching in all of the pots now. Training has been a battle with them pulling the legs overnight and needing re staking further out to keep them flatter. The canopy itself is forming up nice now with the strongest tips being the ones hitting the top now. Once stretch has done, I will be defoliating to feed the lowers that are dying to get involved with the thick supporting secondary branches everywhere. All 3 of the Amnesia haze are thick leaved, monster fanned and chunky stemmed beasts. I am glad I trained them lower as the growth could have easily become a concern in heights for sure. The huge cabbages that have been created now are perfect for a strip out soon to get light to the stems as much as possible #1 Amnesia haze f.i.m girl is by far the thickest Bush. She does have a really nice crown on her too with some serious side growth fighting out of the shadows and creating their own mini plants it seems. It will be good to get to what is her actual contenders as she is so thick with growth , it is hard to tell how many mains will be joining the fun. #2 Is also a great size to work with and will produce some nice yield #3 is a similar size to #1 and has been easy to work with too they have been lifting the pegs easily as they grow each day now so I will be using wire soon to secure them for the final push. Both of the Girl scouts cookies are very productive with growing tips. #1 is a slightly different pheno i think and has a slight darker green to her too. Growing in a nice thicket so far but has been pegged along the way too. Her sister #2 is totally different in her structure with an absolute flurry of bud sites dude to the training out of her throughout. She is like a mini manifold of sorts with all that usual popcorn rubbish being able to share more light. I dont expect huge colas with this and from her general limb thickness but i think she will be filled with decent medium sized nugs. They do both need a defol soon to really give all the nodes a chance go shine. I am planning to do some this week and the last bits at around 21 f. All told they are really looking like a great yield already so with a little more training before I let them get on with it , could be the best run yet !! UPDATE###### Day 15 and i did a defol today. This will allow all those growing tips to find the light. Next few days will be interesting as they recover and get busy.

Day 44, 30th of October 2020: Here we go I am back from holiday this girl grew a lot. The first 6 pictures before LST and the rest is after picture. I switches the light to 12/12 from tomorrow and leave her in darkness for one day from now. She has got already some smell also... ;) I have ordered and extraction fan kit so with filter it will be used soon. Next week starts more intensive fertilization as well :) Let's start to flower hahaha :) Happy Smokes ;)

Chugging right along were getting some stinky sticky ass buds. They smell my whole basement up of sweet citrusy with some skunks undertones(probably my photos that are also in bud but I dunno for sure) the buds are getting thicker daily and I mean daily doubling pretty well. I've never seen such a thing. I included the 4 photos I have that are also a month in to bud for a kind of comparison. The multi top frosty ass indica is the farthest along of the photos at 32days. I started them just before the autos went in. The other 3 are more sativa than frosty. They are all experimental to me so please excuse the way they are. I have been playing doctor since I bought this tent. Trying different things to see what works what doesn't what i am and am not capable of.Anyway I'm gonna start some Northern Lights x Big Bud Auto sometime after these 2 Short Riders get hung and i pull the indica . Ill keep a diary of it in case anyone starts following my adventures. Anyways I'm late with this one so enjoy my ramblings and my pics of my girls.

🌱: Loopking yellowish, no burnt tips, so switch tp 2ml/l Supermix 💧 : 8l 💡 : Dli: 45 mol/m²/d 🤔:

She has been the queen of the family since the first week, she stood out above all for speed, reaction to toppings and beauty. Truly a super strain for Zamnesia has managed very well every time we have raised it even in difficult conditions. It has a heavenly smell, one of the strongest ganje like smell, very sweet, caramel that very much reflects the original essence of one of the most classic strains found in California.

18.08.21 Moin liebe growmies habe diese woche (14.08.21)mit der Umstellung auf 12/12 begonnen und gestern nochmal Nach justiert um die Höhe gleichmäßig zu halten und dabei ist mir eine unfreiwillige Stamm-Spaltung passiert aufgefallen ist mir das ganze erst heut morgen die Blätter hängen nicht und sie wächst unaufhaltsam weiter 👌👌👌👌 was für ein Glück für mich als ich es heute morgen entdeckt habe hätte ich weinen können habe darauf hin die Pflanze begutachtet und mir ist aufgefallen das sie sich nicht daran stört das ganze habe ich jetzt mit Pflanzen Draht stabilisiert und leicht wieder zurück gedrückt, bekomme die wunde aber nicht dicht. da sie schon ab getrocknet war zu dem Zeitpunkt. werde heut abend mal ein Bild machen ohne das die Lampe an ist sie zeigt nämlich schon die ersten Anzeichen von vorblüte und das nach 4 Tagen 12/12 bin begeistert. Die steckies die ich raus gestellt habe wachsen prächtig und wirken insgesamt gesund bin mehr als zufrieden bis jetzt bis auf den kleinen Schock heut morgen....... 19.08.21 habe gestern ewig drüber nach gedacht wie ich das besser fixieren kann und die Stamm-Spaltung besser geschlossen bekomme habe mir was neues überlegt und gleich in die Tat umgesetzt habe breites nylon Band genommen und um die 2 arme jeder Seite gebunden und das ganze Dann gegenüber liegend mit einem Kabelbinder zusammen gebunden und die Spalt stelle so gut es ging wieder geschlossen dabei ist mir dann heute aufgefallen das og purps Nr. 3(gestern Abend noch komplett unversehrt gewesen) heute morgen ebenfalls eine Stamm-Spaltung erlitten hat😭😭😭😵😵😵 also das gleiche mit der Kombination aus breitem nylon Seil und Kabelbinder zur Fixierung jetzt muss ich mir wieder was für die hohe einfallen lassen da die Ladys jetzt wieder höher stehen als die anderen ca 3 bis 4cm 😩😩😩werde dann wohl um das Problem zu lösen mit nylon band an den Zelt Stangen entlang gehen und dann die Äste daran nach aussen ziehen denke mal das ich dann wieder auf Höhe kommen werde (hoffe ich zumindest)........

Harter ritt diese Dame , alles viel zu schwer das es gleich umknickte beim defolieren . Hab mal ein getrockneten Bud aus der mitte genommen und Trichom analyse (Videos und Bilder) gemacht . ja viel klar wenig milchig und einige rot . Ergo , zuviel Licht an der Spitze (abstand zum licht viel zu gering) und im Boden zu kalt ist keine gute Kombination .
