Vegetation: To keep temperature and moisture on optimal levels at around 23°C / 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.

Good evening buds. I discovered I missed the Overdrive last week, and gave Bud Bud instead. Not a big problem, but I like to be precise when it comes to fertilize my plants.
I think this is the last week with ferts.
Next week (depending on trichomes development), flush time, and then harvest. Two weeks should be enough to see this baby complete her journey. Buds are already fat, but trichomes are still not so milky.

Auch die Woche immer Wuchsmeister 10 ml/l mit reingemischt.
In der Woche CO2 bag reingetan (Wirkung unbekannt)
Allgemein aber das erste mal wo mir organischer Anbau halbwegs gefällt

🌿 Woche 4 – Vegetative Phase (27. Oktober – 2. November 2025)
Nach drei Wochen stabiler Entwicklung ging es in Woche 4 in die entscheidende Aufbauphase.
Die Pflanzen haben sich sichtbar verdichtet, die Kronen geschlossen, und die Spider Farmer SE3000 liefert bei 55 % Leistung (≈ 480 µmol/m²/s) gleichmäßiges Licht über die gesamte Fläche.
Am 27. Oktober war dann der große Eingriff fällig: erstes Topping und leichte Entlaubung bei allen sechs Pflanzen.
Das Ziel: strukturierter, flacher Wuchs – die Basis für das kommende LST-Training und ein gleichmäßiges Canopy.
🗓️ Chronologie Woche 4
27.10. ✂️ Erstes Topping + Entlaubung Alle 6 Pflanzen getoppt (oberste Nodie entfernt). Je 1–2 untere Blätter/Triebe entfernt. Keine Stresssymptome danach.
28.10. 🌱 Erholungsphase Blätter wieder aufgerichtet, neue Spitzen sichtbar. Kein Gießen. Licht 55 % @ 60 cm Abstand.
29.10. Kontrolle & Beobachtung Erde weiter getrocknet. Wurzeln an Topfböden sichtbar → Umtopf-Zeitpunkt erreicht.
30.–31.10. (geplant)
💡 Klima & Licht (Woche 4)
27.–29.10. 55 % 60 cm 25–26 °C 55–60 % Optimales vegetatives Klima, keine Hitzespitzen.
30.–31.10. 50 % 65 cm 24–25 °C 60–65 % Nach Umtopfen zur Stressminderung.
01.–02.11. 60–65 % 60 cm 25 °C 60 % Wieder Aufbau der Lichtintensität nach Erholung.
🌱 Strain-Layout / Pflanzenstatus
Front L/R Cherry Poppers 🍒 Kompakt, kräftig, gleichmäßiger Austrieb nach Topping Bereit für LST ab 5.–6. Nov.
Center-L (gelb) Karate Kit 🥋 Etwas gedrungener, dunkles Grün, kräftige Mitte Wuchs leicht langsamer, aber stabil.
Center-R (terracotta) Lemon Orange 🍋 Größte Pflanze, sehr vital, breite Blätter Beim Umtopfen leicht tiefer setzen.
Back L/R White Gorilla Haze ×2 🦍 Buschig, dichte Struktur, kräftige Stiele Leichte Mg-Symptome → Bittersalzgabe nach Umtopfen.
💧 Gieß- & Nährstoffplan (Übersicht Woche 4 + Vorschau)
24.10.
Düngung (vor Woche 4) Orgatrex 2 ml/L 0,9–1,1 L Letztes Vorgießen in 5 L-Töpfen
27.–29.10. — — — Keine Bewässerung, Substrat trocknet für Umtopfen.
30.–31.10. Anwässerung Bactrex 1 g/L 0,8–1 L Nur zur Wurzelaktivierung, kein Orgatrex.
03.–04.11. Erste Nachdüngung Orgatrex 1,8 ml/L + Bittersalz 0,5 g/L (nur WGH) 1 L pH 6,2–6,4, langsames Angießen.
07.–08.11. Nur Wasser — 1–1,2 L Erhaltung der Bodenfeuchte, keine Zugabe.
🧠 Beobachtungen & Pflege
Erholungsphase: 1–2 Tage nach Topping leicht verlangsamtes Wachstum, danach starke Triebneubildung.
Bodenleben: aktiv, feine Myzelstrukturen sichtbar.
Keine Mangelanzeichen: außer leichtem Mg-Bedarf bei White Gorilla Haze.
LST: Beginn voraussichtlich 03.–06. November (sobald neue Triebe 4–5 cm lang sind).
Entlaubung: keine weitere vor Mitte November.
✅ Fazit – Woche 4 (27. Oktober – 2. November)
Diese Woche war der Übergang vom Aufbau zur Strukturphase.
Das Topping am 27. Oktober hat den Wuchs geformt und die Basis für das spätere Training gelegt.
Die Pflanzen zeigen kräftige Triebe, gesunde Farbe und aktives Wurzelwachstum.
Mit dem Umtopfen zum Wochenende beginnt die letzte große Wachstumsphase der Vegi-Stage.
Vitales, harmonisches Wachstum, starker Wurzeltrieb, perfekte Vorbereitung für den „großen Umzug“.

Day 70..
So excited to harvest her next week!!
This pheno is completely different to my previous fastberry, this one is super super dense.
But her odour is identical, so im interested to see what shes like.

The one that survived was only inside a 2 litre, unfortunately, so didn't produce no where near as bud as I would've liked to. It's definitely not stable from 2/3 hermies, no issues with the other strains I had going alongside these.

End of Week 5
Brewed a nice veg-specific compost tea and the ladies loved it.
Trying to make sure the soil stays nice and moist to keep the microbes happy and letting the top 3 cm of the topsoil dry before each watering.
The ladies have gained some momentum and they're growing at a rapid pace .
I also performed some HST by tucking fan leaves and softly pinching and bending some of the stems to open up the canopy whilst keeping the stress at a minimal.
Pest Report:
Didn't have much issues up until now...
I noticed about 5-10 tiny little thrips on some of the leaves and I applied an organic microbial insecticide (Agro Organics Bio-Insek, Google it!) that seems to have taken care of the problem. Now I will apply it weekly to make sure those buggers are ELIMINATED.
