She strong little thing this the 2nd seed I planted of this strain the 1st one didn't pop for me idk why. Only spray and bottle watering her for right now she is in a 5 gallon pot don’t want to over water the pot and cause nat or mold issues. Today is the 1st day of the 2nd week. Dome came off the past few days also.

The cannabis strain Grape Guava can be a purple strain, depending on its specific phenotype and genetic makeup. While not all phenotypes of Grape Guava are purple, some variations, such as the Zatix Grape Guava, are noted for their striking purple appearance due to the genetic expression of anthocyanin pigments. In a garden of green, Grape Guava gleams, With its fruity aroma, enchanting dreams. Clusters of grapes, guava's sweetness ignite, A strain so divine, in purple and white. Euphoria whispers, a lush fruity haze, Grape Guava's embrace, a tranquil daze. Off and away.@1400ppm. The increased CO2 allows plants to thrive at higher temperatures, which in turn necessitates higher humidity to maintain the ideal VPD for healthy growth and transpiration. 80F -5F = 75F LST with 70% RH = 0.72 kPa. Higher temperatures and humidity promote rapid growth, nutrient uptake, and photosynthesis while maintaining a lower stress level. Temperature influences the rate of enzymatic reactions involved in aerobic respiration. Enzymes, such as those involved in glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and the electron transport chain, work most efficiently at an optimal temperature range. In low temperatures, enzymatic activity will slow down, thus reducing the rate of aerobic respiration. In high temperatures, enzymes can become denatured, thus impairing their function and stopping the process of aerobic respiration. Glucose is the primary fuel for aerobic respiration. The rate of aerobic respiration increases with the availability of glucose, as it is the starting point for glycolysis. If glucose levels are low, cells may rely on alternative energy sources such as fatty acids or amino acids , but these processes may yield less ATP or be less efficient. To determine this effect, carbon dioxide volume was measured (as carbon dioxide is an output of aerobic respiration) A seed germinated via skotomorphogenesis (in the dark) will generally develop faster in its initial stages to reach light, though it will be etiolated (elongated and weak) and will switch to slower, more robust photomorphogenesis (light development) once it emerges into light. While skotomorphogenesis is a rapid, growth-oriented process for soil escape, it's a temporary phase; photomorphogenesis is a more sustainable development program that prepares the seedling for photosynthesis. 18/6 with the 6 being IR instead of darkness, keeping temps overnight a neat 77F-80F. PPFD overnight 1.8. Think of my tent as a lung. What goes in must come out. When the rate of air going out exceeds the amount of air coming in, it creates a negative pressure. Tent concaves (bends in). If set up correctly, your RH will begin to drop slowly to the desired level you set, and the extraction turns off when it reaches 50% RH. The plant, as it performs cellular respiration, will always be releasing more water into the air, so the RH% of the tent overnight will always increase, so long as oxidative phosphorylation is occurring. As soon as the RH% creeps back up to 55%, the extraction turns back on, over and over, this creates a strong pressure differential which will work wonders on your grow. replicating high and low pressure fronts in nature, critical for oxygen diffusion, but more importantly, full control of your RH%. Moisture will not transfer from a saturated atmosphere to another if that air is already at or above its saturation point, meaning the air can't hold any more water vapor. Once I understood that water is produced as a by product during cellular respiration, specifically at the very end of the electron transport chain (ETC) where electrons are finally transferred to molecular oxygen, the higher the RH of the air, the more resistance there is for more moisture to be added to that environment, and effects the ease with which it does so. But none of that water comes from the pot; it's pulled from the air. If you run high daytime RH, your medium/pot is 100% reliant on transpirational root pull to move water. ZERO evaporation happens across the atmosphere if the tent air has high RH%, the medium cannot release its water through evaporation. Once a canopy develops, light no longer slowly wicks and evaporates from the topsoil. The Soil-Plant-Atmosphere Continuum (SPAC) describes the continuous pathway and process of water movement, driven by a gradient in water potential, from the soil, through the plant's roots, stem, and leaves, and finally evaporating into the atmosphere through transpiration. There is evaporation, there is transpiration, then there is evapotranspiration; Evapotranspiration (ET) is the combined total of two processes: evaporation (water lost directly from soil and surface water into the atmosphere) and transpiration (water released from plants to the atmosphere through their leaves). Evapotranspiration represents the total amount of water that moves from the medium into the air. There is no such thing as a medium with too much water, only a medium that retains too much for too long. The water must always flow efficiently from one atmosphere(Medium) to another(Air) in a timely manner. Moisture is a critical factor for bacterial growth and decay. Dictating how long it's allowed to sit in any one location for any given period is a key preferred control. To ensure a net reduction in a bacterial population, the rate of removal (ET) must exceed the rate of bacterial growth (decay rate), which is often modeled as a growth rate for the specific bacterium under the given conditions. By optimizing daytime VPD, we also optimize conditions for bacterial growth to explode exponentially above 77°F.. If water is allowed to sit in a medium without an escape within a timeframe, nothing good will happen. IF High RH is maintained overnight as well as during the day, placing 100% of water movement at the behest of daytime transpiration, roots can only pull where they can reach, and if soil is compressed above a certain point, moisture will become trapped in a medium with no way of moving day or night. This will begin the countdown for decay to take hold. When water stagnates in a medium, it loses oxygen, creating anaerobic conditions that foster the growth of harmful microorganisms like bacteria and fungi, which can produce toxins and disease vectors. Thigmomorphogenesis, the process by which plants respond to mechanical stimuli like touch by altering their growth and development, resulting in significant morphological changes to improve survival against mechanical perturbations. This complex response involves sensing touch and initiating physiological and genetic responses, leading to changes in form and structure over days or weeks. The process is triggered by physical forces such as wind, rain, or touch. Plants adapt to these stimuli by changing their shape and structure, which may include slower growth, thickened stems, or altered leaf development. Plants possess sophisticated mechanisms to detect even subtle mechanical stimuli and initiate responses. A variety of molecules, including calcium ions, jasmonates, ethylene, and nitric oxide, are involved in signaling these mechanical inputs. Touch can induce the expression of genes that encode proteins for calcium sensing, cell wall modification, and defense mechanisms. A plant exposed to constant wind may become shorter and sturdier. A plant that is touched frequently might grow slower to conserve energy and develop thicker cell walls. These changes increase a plant's resilience and ability to survive in harsh environments. Let's get Thiggy with it.

We are going to send these two into flower the second I get my hands on a 3x3. The plan is to move them into the 3x3 until they finish up. Leave the 5 Autoflowers in the 4x4 until they finish then start a perpetual cycle between the two tents. A 3x3 for Veg and 4x4 for Flower! I’m extremely excited about the future!

"Wow, what an amazing week in my grow room! My LSD auto is now 60 days old and in the second week of flowering. The buds are starting to take shape, and I can't wait to see them develop! I also decided to experiment and pollinate one of the plant's branches with pollen from Chronic Rider F1 by Dr. Choice. Exciting times ahead! Feeling like a true master, creating my own unique hybrids. Big plans for the future! 🌿🌸🔬💥"

@MephistoGenetics, Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. This is my second cultivation ever and it will be fun to try a bigger space than my closet grow. First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of ​​3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable environment in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 10 pcs 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. But there are no cultivation rooms to be displayed here, so I continue with what is most important. Today I have put my seeds in paper towel and hope the seeds have germinated within a few days. I am very excited to see how the new growroom will work and how this Illuminauto 21 - Sour Crinkle will turn out. Illuminauto 21 - Sour Crinkle (Grape Crinkle x Sour Crack) Two of our fastest and frostiest varieties collide to make a sweet and sour delight! Expect super frosty, compact nugs that won't be a toke for novices. Destined to be a great strain for extraction work too! Plant size - Small - Medium Cycle time - 60-65 days from sprout Indica/Sativa - 80/20 Frost level - Extra Ridiculous https://www.mephistogenetics.com/product-page/illuminauto-21-sour-crinkle ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. 2017-08-21.

Hello to you who read my diary, I just want to say that I am pleased that you have chosen to check in with me and in my diary. I just want to say that I do this for myself and for a steady flow of my medicine. Everything you read and see in my diary is 100% honest and I will never distort or beautify anything here. I document my crops so that I can learn from my mistakes and also to look back at those different crops. I try to update with pictures every day and with text if something special has happened in the garden. This is my strainhunt for the best medicine and the beginning of my journey with cannabis and the cultivation of it. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-30.

🌿 Week 4 Veg – Beauty, Branching & Bio-Tech Symphony Grower’s Journal – BlueBerry by Zamnesia Seeds | Entry 005 Welcome to Week 4 of Veg, and let’s just say it clearly: These BlueBerry girls are growing like there’s no tomorrow. Branching like crazy, stretching into their potential, and looking like true queens under the lights. ⸻ 📸 Visuals to Match the Growth This week, we pulled them out of the tent for a special photoshoot, just to honor how gorgeous they’ve become. Their structure is perfect, the leaves are flawless, and the pace of development is exactly where we want it. These are the kinds of plants that make growers pause, smile, and say, “Yes, this is working.” ⸻ 🌱 Nutrition – A Balanced, Thoughtful Feed We’re continuing our Aptus nutrient regimen, supporting explosive vegetative growth while maintaining biological harmony in the root zone: Current Feed (per liter): • Regulator – 0.15 ml: Cell wall integrity, anti-stress armor, and enhanced nutrient uptake • CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml: Supporting structural development and leaf strength • All-in-One Liquid – 1 ml: The nutritional foundation, covering macro and micronutrients • 🌿 Start Booster – 0.25 ml: Still supporting root density, node stacking, and early branching 🌿 Why we’re using this: Because we’re in rapid growth mode, and we want to fuel expansion without pushing too hard. This combo delivers strength, balance, and root vitality, exactly what we want before any training or pre-flower stretch. ⸻ 🌞 Lighting – Now a Two-Zone Setup We’ve expanded the operation—stretching across an 8x8 space, creating two active light zones: ⚡️ Zone 1 – Black Series 600 by Future of Grow • Full-spectrum LED designed for early veg and structured growth • Gentle but powerful PPFD—keeps internodes tight and leaf color rich ⚡️ Zone 2 – THINKGROW Model One LEDs • Ultra-efficient LEDs with controllable spectrum • Ideal for pushing vigorous vegetative growth across a larger canopy • Controlled via the TrolMaster system for precise lighting schedules and dimming 💡 Both systems are delivering clean, cool light, helping shape the canopy while managing energy use smartly. ⸻ 🌬️ Airflow & Environmental Control – Total Tech Harmony We’re not just growing plants—we’re growing a controlled microclimate, with every element tuned: Airflow Setup: • Exhaust: Two 6” inline fans • 1x Spider Farmer 6” Exhaust w/ Carbon Filter – Controlled via Spider Farmer GGS Controller • 1x TrolMaster AeroFan 6” Exhaust w/ Carbon Filter – Controlled via TrolMaster Tent-X Controller • Intake: One 6” fresh-air intake pulling air into the tent 🌀 This system keeps: • CO₂ fresh (~632 ppm) • Temperatures steady (~27°C) • Humidity ideal (~57.4%) • And filters in place keep the air pure, clean, and odor-controlled, even at this early stage 🧠 Sensors & Controllers: • TrolMaster Tent-X Ecosystem – the brains of the setup • Managing lights, exhaust, intake, CO₂, temperature, and humidity • Connected to: • CO₂ sensors • Temperature & Humidity probes • PPFD sensor (light intensity measurements for accuracy) Every zone, every variable is dialed in with care. ⸻ 🌿 Why All This Matters – Creating Plant-Centered Intelligence We’re not just creating a grow tent. We’re creating a living, breathing system that adapts, protects, and encourages growth. Each element, from airflow to light to nutrition, is designed to support the natural intelligence of the plant. And the BlueBerries are responding. They’re thriving, stacking, stretching, and showing gratitude through leaf expression, branch angles, and rhythm. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Week • More branching, tighter nodes • Early signs of pre-flower development • Possibly early LST if needed • Continued sensor data collection as we dial in the automation ⸻ 🙅‍♂️ What Not to Expect • No topping yet—structure is still unfolding • No transplant (they’re in final 11L fabric pots) • No overfeeding—we’re keeping it steady and strategic ⸻ 🎥 Video Update – Inside the Setup A video has been added to this week’s update, just a quiet visual journey through the setup: 💡 No narration, just the gear, structure, and rhythm of a garden built with intention. The systems speak for themselves. ⸻ 💬 Final Thoughts – BlueBerry as a Statement This isn’t just another grow. It’s a special BlueBerry run. A classic cultivar grown with modern methods, storytelling, and reverence. We’re blending nature with tech, instinct with data, and roots with rhythm. Thank you for being here. The best is yet to grow. 🌿 With light and love, Your faithful garden companion 🌱💚 DD💚 As always, this is part of our ongoing Grow Series, an open diary of everything we do and why.

Hey guys! 😀👋 Week 5 is here and my girls are growing fast! But as always, some things happened/did some things this week: - The girl's that's on the front (closer to the camera) is clearly growing faster and for that reason I believe she's going to get into flower before than her sister! - I think the girl on the back might be have some kind of excess or deficit going on? Confusing. No idea what could've be doing it. - I've been tucking leaves pretty much all week. Specially on the girl on the back and some of her leaves are twitching in a very weird way. I want to defoliate a little so the lower buds get more but Iight fear I might end stunning my girls!😨 - I reinforced the LST on my girls, the one that I did was not enough! Anyway, that's pretty much all! I hope you'll all enjoy the photos and the timelapse! 😍 See you all next week!

I thought the ladies would have another 2-3 weeks left in veg, but started to notice pistils forming within the last couple of days. So flower will most likely start to begin within the next week, I’m guessing I may see a couple oz per plant come harvest day. Not bad for first time grow & using autos, from what I’ve heard a lot of people do not recommend learning with autos due to how quickly their state can change depending on what you do with them. There are some things I wish now I would have done a bit different within the last couple of weeks, I can’t help but wonder how much bigger they’d be if I did not do any defoliation at all. But I have been combating flies bad and made the call to defoliate mainly for that reason. Started to cut back on veg foods and introduce flower foods and sugars to their diet. Humidity levels still at a steady decrease, aiming to have humidity down in the 30s come flower time. Will be going on vacation for a week soon, so fingers crossed that nothing goes wrong. Will be having a good friend of mine come by every couple of days to FaceTime me and make sure everything is handled as well as possible when the time comes.
