Straight into flower with no issues. Currently on day 16 of flower, this strain has a flowering time of around 63-70 days. I top dressed a couple of days ago with some 2-8-10. This living soil really does do all the hard work, so easy, no stress🤫 She is enjoying life and supping water for fun, irrigation has been ramped up.

📆 Semana 4 La planta sigue ajustándose tras el exceso de EC, con el pH aún terminando de estabilizarse. La absorción es algo irregular pero en mejora, y la turgencia se mantiene correcta mientras la raíz consolida el equilibrio. La estructura permanece ordenada y las puntas principales ya muestran los primeros “erizos”, señal de que la transición floral avanza pese al reajuste del medio. El verde recupera gradualmente, con leves marcas en hojas grandes aún visibles. El estiramiento entra en su fase final y la formación empieza a tomar protagonismo. Ajustando el entorno para poder formar. Seguimos creciendo fuerte 💪!

Comienzo del lst en dos de las plantas que están más sanas

Got these transplanted to the rain science 3 gal bags and moved to a 4x4 in the basement where it's a little better environment in terms of vpd. I had a full bag of roots organic soil so I decided to do a soil/coco blend like I did with the current autoflower crop. I also topped every single one of em mid week. Once I get the flower tent all cleaned out and everything I'll be throwing these in there for bloom. Hoping this will be an even better grow than the last since I have both my arms back. I'm doing the update a little early since I was late on it last week, today (tuesday 9.10.19) is day 43 from germination and about day 39 from full sprout. Before this week they were under only about 185w in a 4x4 area so it's been slow growth so far. These are doing solid, some are a little small and bushy like the purple candy paint and the rocstar breath but not that they have some room to grow maybe theyll pick it up.

Fertilizer is on maximum now the first week.

This week started of good except for ph and iron. I'm phing feed and water to 6 but my naturally 7.6 ph water is raising ph. I've realized my water and organic soil don't have iron in them. It's keeping these from greening up properly. I do have blood meal in the soil but not enough. I'll be adding an iron supplement next week when it arrives. Until then I'm going to feed a little masses and blood meal with the ph water. I've had a difficult learning curve switching from coco and salts to organic and soil. #2 got topped on day 1. I'm going to clone this top so I'll have this plant for the future.

Week 5 and all 6 Autos are kicking out white hairs Auto ultimate still the biggest out the lot tallest being just over 3ft tall the rest are around 2/2.5ft tall and still stretching

Started their 48 hour of darkness today, am going to chop Wed. I think they did a great job finishing up over the last week, super excited to see how they turned out. Keeping this week's update short and sweet, the next update will be much more detailed. Will post the final update after I finish drying and trimming.

Low stress training a few I think there looking ok so far

Light de-fol today and a re adjustment of the lst lines as more prominent branches establish themselves so happy with this lady she really lends herself to lst.

Yo growmies, It's getting hot this week. Lots of sun makes the ladies stretch. They grew by 10cm in height and are getting super bushy. I've been defoliating a lot here and there as well as cutting off some weaker branches to give the main colas more support. Where is she heading? Nobody knows

Day 64 my baby is going really well by now, she s been running fast until now and I think that’s enough with fertiliser. From today o start my flush, I will give today my last dose of regulator and from next irrigation just on controlled water until the end of maturation, I want this baby to eat everything . day 65 started flushing. ph controlled water at 6.0 i think 20 more days at max before m Day 68 First check with micro today. The baby looks already milky and amber on the top buds but the rest of the plant is still transparent. I’ll wait at least until this weekend for a re check maybe I’ll cut her in two rounds. As I be been watching a lot with micro I noticed so many dust and other stuff on the buds so I think I’ll wash her in water. Today watered ph 6. Let’s see! 🌱🔥🌱🔥🌱🔥🔥

🥒 Project Blue Tent – Week 5 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Pheno A (Folder 14A) Hello everyone, and welcome back to another update from Project Blue Tent! 💙🌱 If this is your first time stopping by, welcome! Project Blue Tent follows four individual plants, each documented in its own dedicated diary from seed all the way to harvest. Every plant receives the exact same environment, nutrients, lighting, irrigation and care, allowing us to observe how each phenotype expresses its own unique personality despite sharing identical conditions. This week marks another exciting milestone for Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Plant A. After recovering beautifully from topping, it was finally time to install one of my favourite training techniques... The SCROG net. 🌿 Week Five – The Canopy Begins This week was less about vertical growth and more about shaping the future. With the plant fully recovered from topping and growing faster than any of the others inside the tent, I decided the timing was perfect to install the SCROG net and begin spreading the canopy. Plant A immediately confirmed my suspicion. She has become the most vigorous plant in the room.While the other ladies settled comfortably beneath the screen, this phenotype almost seemed eager to escape it. Every branch wanted to continue growing upward, so the goal this week became gently guiding that energy sideways instead. One branch at a time.One square at a time. Nothing forced. Nothing rushed. SCROG is very much a daily conversation with the plant rather than a one-time training session. Looking at her today, I already have the feeling she may end up occupying the largest portion of the canopy. Only time will tell, but she's certainly making a strong case for herself. 🕸️ What is a SCROG? SCROG stands for Screen of Green, and despite the name, the net itself doesn't actually support the buds. Its primary purpose is to control the plant's shape. Instead of allowing one dominant top to grow taller than everything else, the branches are gently guided horizontally beneath the screen. As each branch reaches a new opening, it's carefully tucked into the next square, encouraging the plant to spread across the available space rather than simply reaching toward the light. The result is a flatter, more even canopy where many growing tips receive similar light intensity. Instead of producing one large cola and many smaller ones hidden underneath, the plant is encouraged to create dozens of equally productive flowering sites. It's one of the most effective ways to maximize light efficiency inside smaller tents. 🤔 Is SCROG for everyone? Not necessarily. One important thing many new growers don't realize is that once the plant is woven into the screen, moving it becomes extremely difficult. Need to remove the pot? Almost impossible. Want to rotate the plant? Not anymore. Need to carry it somewhere else? Forget about it. The plant essentially becomes part of the tent. For growers who frequently move their plants for maintenance, watering or photography, SCROG can quickly become frustrating. Personally, I don't use it on every grow. But in compact setups like this Project Blue Tent, where every square centimetre matters, I absolutely love working with it. There's something incredibly satisfying about visiting the tent every day, gently guiding a few branches, watching empty spaces slowly disappear, and seeing the canopy become flatter and more uniform with each passing day. It isn't a technique everyone will fall in love with... But it's definitely one I encourage every grower to try at least once. Only by experiencing it can you decide whether it's the right style for your own garden. 🌡️ Environmental Conditions This week the environment remained stable, allowing the plants to focus entirely on recovering from training and continuing vigorous vegetative growth.Average conditions were: • 🌡️ Day temperature: 30°C• 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C • 💧 Relative humidity: 58% • 🥥 Root zone temperature: 24°C • 💦 Nutrient solution: 18°C • ⚗️ pH: 5.8 • ⚡ EC: 1.92 mS/cm • 💨 CO₂: approximately 450 ppm • 💡 Light schedule: 18/6 Even with slightly warmer daytime temperatures this week, the plants have continued to show excellent vigor thanks to stable root temperatures, consistent irrigation and healthy airflow throughout the tent. 🥥 Feeding Update One observation from the previous couple of weeks was the slightly lighter shade of green across all four plants. Although they remained healthy and continued growing without slowing down, I felt they were asking for just a little more food. Rather than waiting for deficiencies to develop, I made a small adjustment to the nutrient solution. Current feeding now consists of:• Plagron Hydro A — 1.9 ml/L • Plagron Hydro B — 1.9 ml/L • Plagron Hydro Roots — 1 ml/L This small increase has already made a noticeable difference. The fresh growth is returning to a richer shade of green while maintaining the vigorous posture I've been seeing throughout the project. One of the things I continue to appreciate about growing in coco is how quickly plants communicate with you. Small adjustments often produce visible improvements within just a few days, making it much easier to fine-tune nutrition before small issues become bigger ones. 🌿 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Plant A This phenotype keeps reinforcing the impression she's given me since the beginning. She's vigorous. Responsive. And full of energy. Even after being bent beneath the SCROG net, every branch seems determined to keep pushing upward, which is exactly the kind of behaviour I was hoping to see before entering the next stage of vegetative growth. The stems continue thickening beautifully, making the training process much easier than it would have been with weaker growth. The internodal spacing remains compact, the foliage is healthy, and the plant has handled every bit of stress I've introduced so far without missing a beat. At this stage she already feels like a plant that's going to demand plenty of room. Whether she ultimately becomes the dominant lady inside Project Blue Tent remains to be seen, but she's certainly making her intentions known. 🔍 Looking Ahead Over the coming week the focus will remain exactly where it should be. No rushing.No unnecessary stress. Simply continuing to tuck new growth beneath the SCROG screen while allowing the canopy to expand naturally across every available square. I'm excited to see how each phenotype responds to this new training style. Some plants naturally embrace SCROG. Others fight it every step of the way. That's one of the reasons I love documenting projects like this. Every week the plants teach us something new. And I have a feeling Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Plant A still has plenty more to reveal. 💙 Thank You A huge thank you to Zamnesia for making Project Blue Tent possible, from these fantastic Pickle Lemon Haze F1 genetics to the complete ecosystem surrounding this grow. A heartfelt thank you to Plagron for providing the Premium Growbags together with the Hydro nutrient line, delivering consistent nutrition and allowing these plants to thrive week after week. A sincere thank you as well to Phytonaut for the outstanding LED lighting that continues producing compact growth, excellent structure and an incredibly even canopy across the tent. Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving growers around the world a place to document their journeys, exchange knowledge and inspire one another every single day. And finally... Thank you for following along. Whether you've been here since germination, recently joined the adventure, leave comments every week, or quietly follow these updates from the background, your support genuinely means the world to me. Project Blue Tent isn't just about growing great plants. It's about sharing the entire experience—the experiments, the lessons, the successes, the mistakes, and everything we learn together along the way. I hope you're all having an amazing week, and I can't wait to show you how this canopy develops over the next few days. Until next time... Growers Love, happy growing, and take care everyone! 🌱💙

12/12/24 Short Facts: Watered: 1 x 2.4L, 1 x 2.5L, 1 x 2.5L — Total: 7.4L VPD @ 1.4 Light @ 70% (~700 to 950 PPFD) Stopped watering with fertilizers, only water, CalMag and Silicia Force --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I’ve stopped watering with fertilizer because I’m planning to harvest her in the coming days. You can already see that she’s slowly dying. I hope she’ll put all her remaining energy into her flowers in these final days. I’m going to dry her, but only because there’s a new method I want to try. You can now place the harvested buds into a special plastic bag immediately after harvest. These bags are designed to let water out while preserving the terpenes almost completely intact. One of the German grow shops selling these bags tested different samples in a lab, and the results seem to support their claims. If it works, great! If not and the harvest ends up molding, I don’t mind. 98% of the harvest will already have to be trashed due to the legal limit.

This strain was a pleasure to grow! It was a strong, the most spectacular plant from the group. Always stepping up. The pheno was very resillient, growth was very fast and first pistils showed up after two weeks. Little neglected her when the stretch phase started - didn’t tie her down enough so she got a bit leggy (78cm tall) so there wasn’t really even canopy. And halfway through the flowering Magnesium deficiency or a lockout occured and never found a good solution to fix that. What Ive read Kushes need very large amounts of Ca&Mg during the flowering, and might be that 3:1 ratio of Ca:Mg had a synergism and decreased availability due the excess of other. Still managed to get some massive main colas. And can’t say enough how pleased I’m the colors! This plant growth was simply art.

She started growing new nodes and I started raising the feed on nutrients and kept the ph at 6.5-6.6. She looks like she’s ready to flower soon. Started giving a little bit of a smell like citrusy.

Amazing flower time 💚💚💚 Buds is strong ...verry strong . smell AMAZING 💚💚 Unbelievably fragrant plant. The flowers are beautiful and slowly begin to ripen. My guess is to wait another two weeks and it will be harvested.💚. Thank you watch

I would believe this variety again ... I think it could be better ... and do not make some mistakes in it ... I recommend it to all growers ...

16AUGUST2025:

Bad week for my baby she lacked food so she was droopy did not realize she needed food as she was dark green and I was skipping a week of feeding because of it. (Looked like she had nitrogen toxicity ) thought she was being overwatered so I let her dry out . Once that dif not work to pick her back up. I thought what I did differently with her ? Oh yah skipped a feeding lol. So I fed her right away with tnt growth formula it's locally made and within 2 hours she looked better unroll 2 days later when she looked normal again. Last day of veg. Next week will be flowering
