Vegetation: To keep temperature and moisture on optimal levels at around 23ยฐC / 65% I'm using two mechanical timers. - 24/7 on: Fans and water pumps (+Ventilation after 3.11.) - Timer 1: Lights and Humidifier 18h on / 6h off - Timer 2 (BROKEN 3.11.): Ventilation 18h (15min on / 15min off) / 6h off NOTES: Everything looks good and the roots have appeared from almost every (11/13) rock-wool cube. From now on I'll mostly water the plants from bottom by adding the wanted amount of nutrient solution on a plate, and then placing the plant on top of for ~15seconds This week I'm also starting to prepare the hydroponic systems (2x NFT-GT90, and 1x EBB-flow I think) and stronger nutrient solution since my plants are becoming ready to be transferred. Spreader-mat is the base of my plants when I have transferred them in to the hydroponic systems. DO NOT place more than one layer of the spreader-mat as it is not meant to be used like that! As you're cutting the mat for NFT's, be aware to have some extra for your peace to reach nutrient solution below the tray. That way you won't get noise from water dropping when systems are turned on. Day 15 (1.11.) Day 16 (2.11.) First watering with a bit stronger nutrient-solution (~ EC 0,6 / pH 5,9) than before, starting with 50ml/plant and watering once from above. Slowly increasing EC to 0,8. I cleaned and assembled 2 out of 3 hydroponic-systems which I'm going to use. I'll do the same also to the last system, but it currently has my plants on top of it so I'm going to do it later. I want to make sure that my plants have built healthy and big enough root system before transplanting to hydroponics. I'm waiting for the rock-wool cubes to be bursting of roots so they won't drown on their first day in hydro. Also, as the plants are bigger before the transplant, I'm able to fill my nutrient-solution tanks full with correct strength nutrient-solution for Mid-Vegetation from the start, therefore no need for that much adjusting later on. Day 17 (3.11.) I noticed my other timer which controls the lights had stopped working... The lights were on when they shouldn't have been, I noticed it an hour after they were supposed to turn off. I think I caught up to it early, but it may have been on for maximum of 2 days straight. No worries there since on vegetation-phase the plants don't necessarily need any sleep (Even though you should avoid quick changes like that!). Roots have appeared from the bottom of every cube and plants are looking pretty healthy. I think they are almost ready for hydroponics. Day 18 (4.11.) Few plants are showing symptoms of nutrient deficiences or some sort of sickness, not certain what exactly. I'll be keeping an eye on it. I'll be transferring in to hydroponic systems in maybe a week, so I don't want to stress my plants more than what's necessary. Increased my solution strength to 0,9 EC with a bit more Cal-Mag than before, and watered the plants for 50-150ml each plant depending on weight and size. I'll be slowly increasing the strength by around 50% during upcoming week. Thanks for tips! Day 19 (5.11.) Day 20 (6.11.) Plants are recovering well from deficiences and I just transferred all of them to hydroponics. I don't have the water pumps on for 24/7 just yet, at this point I water them a couple times a day by keeping the pumps on for somewhere around 15min at a time. Lights are now set to 60% and I also added a tower fan to circulate the air and shake the plants. Day 21 (7.11.) Lights are now set to 70% since the Led's and plants are spreaded wider in the tent than before. Distance to plants stays the same at 75cm.

Itโ€™s a nice grow so far in terms of expectations reality on the seed breeders. Great stuff again. I had a real germination nightmare this time around though - lots of strains failing at seedling so the numbers and strains became more ๐Ÿ˜‚. So the tents are mixed up again to auto on one side and photoperiod on the other. In this tent as well as Afghan and a red gorilla - there is sweet zensation , banana krumble and red hot cookies and a peyote skittlez. Water in using ro solely through the grow. There has been one issue. I tried a โ€œproโ€ substrate from biocanna this time and I have those little fleas. Really annoying and my aphids are late so kind of annoying - takes the pleasure off a bit. Any good organic solutions let me know please on comments

good week, they are flowering beautifully and there's no much smell until now. I saw some brown pistils and I'm wondering what's happening.. I'll keep monitoring them and this week I'll improve tro coolers to down the temperature

Bushing out nicely! I probably should have adjusted the LST to allow them to grow taller but they were responding nicely so I kept them pinned and adjusted every few days. Finally started phโ€™ing the water to around 6. Water is tap, not measuring TDS or adding liquid nutes at this point. The soils transplant was done with 50/50 mix of Natures Living Soil and soil, botto 1/3 of pot and remaining 2/3 soil.

~ Day 71 Update ~ Hello everyone! Hola! Iโ€™m Meus and this is my 10th weekly update for โ€œFirst Mainline Attempt!โ€. Iโ€™d like to welcome new & veteran growers, Thanks for taking the time to stop by :) ~ Progress ~ You know, Iโ€™m astounded by the level of growth in this past week, my mind is blown! 5" of growth compared to the avg of 1" for the past few weeks (9,8,7, etc), just wow ๐Ÿ˜ฑ. The smell is pungent, dank, and slightly sweet. I can only dream of what these girls will skunk out, soon, very soon... Iโ€™d like to flower now but I have a few small issues. First: I wanted to stop at 8 toppings but I need clones of the others so everyone gets topped to keep an even canopy. Of course Iโ€™m not taking 8 clones each ๐Ÿ˜, just 2-3 of each strain (5 strains, 6 plants; 2 phenotypes) to put in my 2nd tent till these girls (mainlined beasts) are harvested. This is ambitious though Iโ€™m optimistic that this will work out ๐Ÿ™ Second: Related to the first issue Iโ€™m going to need a trellis net to support these girls with their 16 tops. Thing is, all my plant have varying flowering schedules (55 to 70+ days). Iโ€™ll need to make a net set up that I can cut out each plant individually as theyโ€™re ready to harvest. Third: MOLD! Though itโ€™s not a lot I do have a bit of mold developing at the bottom of the fabric pots (which are known to mold). Iโ€™m going to switch to Superoots Air-Pot so I can avoid the mold. Theyโ€™re $10+ a pop so I might have to wait till my next grow to afford the amount I need to make a full switch. Depending on how things go Iโ€™ll start flowering at week 13. Now concerning the mold I found a few ways to deal with my problem without harming or altering taste of these young ladies. This will be a tough 11 - 14 weeks, Iโ€™ll keep ya updated fam! ~ Individual progress notes ~ (will post full information soon, update delayed for personal reasons) [Purple Urkle #1] Height: 14" Tops: 8 Notes: 14 inches... That's quite a climb :) Though she's stretchy like her sister I'm excited, can't wait to see the development in the next few weeks of veg ๐Ÿ˜Š [Purple Urkle #2] Height: 13.2" Tops: 8 Notes: I'm surprised at the uniformity of these two sisters, I'm going to veg a bit longer and get me some clones just in case ;) [CBD Blueberry] Height: 9.8" Tops: 8 Notes: I thought this girl was a goner, definitely didn't respond to the mainline well like the others, wonder why? ๐Ÿ˜ถ Still I'm impressed that my smallest plant is filling in, though she looks weird I still love her and her minions <3 [White Widow] Height: 11.2 Tops: 8 Notes: Well... This was one of my smallest girls, she's by far the bushiest and most filled in. For an example look at her root mass, one word, insane! Roots are spreading everywhere, so aggressive and the trunk is huge, perfect for transporting all those nutes. Tanya here recovered from a split too, awesome :) [Mazar] Height: 13.8 Tops: 8 Notes: Taller but just as dense as the white widow, the Mazar has potential! A beautiful, healthy canopy, one of my best girls. It's a good feeling knowing that my hard work is paying off ๐Ÿ˜ญ I'm afraid of topping this one because she is so dense that 16 tops will be off the hook, better make a plan soon ๐Ÿ™ [Super Silver Haze] Height: 11.2 Tops: 8 Notes: Iโ€™m starting to get impatient, I love this strain! Well, most strains developed by Arjan are great <3 I will need to feed soon with diluted nutes, she looks hungry a bit. Other than that sheโ€™s a healthy young lady thatโ€™s ready to flower :) ~ Final Thoughts ~ Where to start... Iโ€™m excited! Getting my clones are my top priority right now, then I'll focus on canopy support. Iโ€™ve come a long way from my first grow, even though I failed I learned a lot. Those lessons are keeping me on my toes and Iโ€™m learning more everyday. Thank you to those who have been influential to my success, much love! I can honestly say Grow Diaries is the best! What a fantastic community to just happen upon while skimming forums one day. So again, thank you guys so much for the support! The comments are informative and helpful, I appreciate em all :) Thanks for stopping by, much love <3

This girl is a monster. All the other girls got chopped over the weekend but she wasnโ€™t ready. Now she gets the tent to herself and she is loving it. I bent all her branches down as much as I could to spread her out even more. Iโ€™m thinking a week, maybe two left. The other girls are hang drying and once they are done I can trim, weigh, take pictures and then Iโ€™ll update my harvests!

I'm helping her by keeping the humidity higher since I put this bag, we'll see what happens ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿป ..Any advice will be welcome ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป as always have a nice day and happy growing to everyone! ๐Ÿ˜Šโ˜ฎ๏ธ๐Ÿ’š 19-05-21 (Day 3) ..Unfortunately the Runtz Muffin is dead, was unable to come to life like her little sisters. After three days, i tried to help her removing her seed husk.. but there was nothing to do ๐Ÿ˜ข So here is a new start!! ๐Ÿ˜Š I put this Lemon Tree โ€œFreebieโ€ seed to germinate aaand to replace the poor Runtz Muffin. ๐Ÿ˜•๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป We'll see how it goes this time.. ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿป๐Ÿ€ Sending positive vibes for you and your garden โ˜ฎ๏ธ๐Ÿ’š 20-05-21 (Day 4) All the girls are doing great and continuing their grow. The Lemon Tree is doing great too with its germination, that in just six hours the seed has opened! Now Iโ€™ll wait that the sprout grow a tiny root of (1,5/2cm) at least, to pass it into the soil. Happy grow fam. Stay smoky ๐Ÿ˜™๐Ÿ’จ 21-05-21 (Day 5) With today the girls are in their fifth day of growth. ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป Bio-heaven (amino-acids) added to the recipe (1ml/1L) As you know after the death of Runtz Muffin, I have been germinating the Lemon Tree for two days now, today is the third day for her after an excellent germination, I have transferred it from the paper towel to the soil to make it grow. Letโ€™s see how she will grow, Despite being a week behind, I hope she grows strong, healthy and fast๐Ÿคž๐Ÿป Have a good weekend, lift up and relax. Peace โ˜ฎ๏ธ ๐Ÿ’š 22-05-21 (Day 6) The Lemon tree is officially out of the soil, ready to grow! ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป๐Ÿ’š The other girls are fine, they are on their sixth day of life and they love the environment where they are growing up. ..Plus they are always listening to music (Lo-Fi) 24/7 โ˜บ๏ธ I hope they like it.. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿป๐Ÿ˜† That's all for today. Have a good weekend gromies!! ๐Ÿง‘๐Ÿปโ€๐ŸŒพ๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐ŸŒพ๐Ÿปโ˜ฎ๏ธ๐Ÿ’š 23-05-21 (Day 7) Today last day of the first week for the girls and first day of life for the Lemon Tree!

Happy growing to everyone! โ˜ฎ๏ธ๐Ÿ’š
