After 2 weeks I chose my favorite plant of the three and prepared her for the Autopot. Now she needs to root this pot for another 2 weeks before we can turn on the Aqua Valve and the tank. DLI 30

La tenda continua a crescere sotto questa SF2000 che spinge al 80% da oggi e ho abbassato a 15 ore di luce al giorno in modo da farle abituare piano piano, le piĂč grandi hanno delle carenze e oltre a quelle spero non sia un fungo Fasarium perchĂ© le foglie piĂč basse sono gialle con bruciature e secche quindi mi viene da pensare piĂč a quello visto che ultima non avevo fatto asciugare benissimo e avevo meno ricircolo di aria perchĂ© uso piĂč il deumidificatore e meno estrattore
 insomma quelle piĂč danneggiate sono state potate e ora aspetto di asciugare bene bene questa volta e prossima darĂČ solo acqua per sciacquare le radici
 Vediamo come procede i prossimi giorni đŸ™‚đŸ“žđŸŒ±đŸ’šâœš

đŸŒ± Week 3 | Purple Haze Photo | Folder 6A | Building the Foundation Every phenotype tells its own story, and this Purple Haze is beginning to reveal exactly the kind of structure I was hoping to see. Looking back at the photographs from the beginning of the week and comparing them to where she stands today, the progress has been remarkable. The increase in leaf size, stem thickness, and lateral branch development shows that the plant has settled comfortably into her environment and is now entering a period of rapid vegetative growth. This diary is part of my Project Blue series, where every plant receives its own individual journal. Although they all share the same environment, nutrition, and cultivation method, documenting each phenotype separately allows me to observe the subtle differences that make every plant unique. Two seeds from the same pack can behave very differently, and that’s exactly what makes growing from seed so fascinating. Like every plant in this project, Purple Haze is being grown using the 12/12 From Seed method. Instead of giving the traditional vegetative light schedule, the plants receive a flowering photoperiod from the moment they emerge. This technique keeps the plants compact while still allowing them enough time to develop a strong structure before flowering naturally takes over. It’s an approach I enjoy because it produces efficient, manageable plants while still allowing each phenotype to express its personality. Throughout the week the environment remained extremely stable, providing the consistency young plants need to thrive. Environmental Conditions ‱ Day temperature: 27°C ‱ Night temperature: 25°C ‱ Relative Humidity: 55% ‱ Root Zone Temperature: 21°C ‱ Nutrient Solution Temperature: 20°C ‱ pH: 6.0 ‱ EC: 1.3 ‱ CO₂: approximately 666 ppm ‱ Light Schedule: 12/12 ‱ Average PPFD: 600–700 Maintaining these parameters allows the plants to dedicate their energy to healthy growth rather than constantly adapting to environmental fluctuations. Feeding Schedule This week the nutrition remained focused on root establishment and balanced vegetative growth using the Plagron Terra line: ‱ Terra Grow — 1.8 ml/L ‱ Power Roots — 1 ml/L ‱ Pure Zym — 1 ml/L ‱ Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L The goal isn’t to push maximum growth as quickly as possible but to encourage strong, healthy development while building a vigorous root system capable of supporting heavy flowering later in the cycle. A Beautiful Structural Evolution The difference between the first photographs of the week and the last ones is immediately noticeable. The stem has thickened considerably, becoming sturdy enough to support future flower production without any assistance. Internodal spacing remains tight, creating a compact plant with multiple future flowering sites already beginning to establish themselves. The leaves are broad, flat and richly coloured, showing no signs of nutrient deficiencies or environmental stress. New growth emerges with a healthy lighter green before maturing into the darker foliage characteristic of vigorous vegetative development. Perhaps the most exciting change is the development of the secondary branches. Each node is now pushing strong lateral shoots, giving the plant a naturally symmetrical structure that should translate into an even canopy during flowering. Why I’m Using Leaf Tucking Instead of Defoliation One of the techniques I’ve been using throughout the week is leaf tucking. Rather than removing healthy fan leaves, I simply tuck them underneath neighboring branches to expose the developing shoots hidden beneath the canopy. This offers several advantages: * More light reaches the lower branches. * Airflow improves naturally. * The plant keeps all of its solar panels, allowing maximum photosynthesis. * No recovery time is required because nothing is removed. Young plants need every healthy leaf they can keep. Fan leaves are the engines that drive growth, so whenever possible I prefer repositioning them instead of cutting them away. Defoliation can always come later if it becomes necessary, but at this stage gentle canopy management is more than enough. Looking Ahead Purple Haze is quickly becoming one of the strongest structured plants in the room. She has responded beautifully to the stable environment, balanced nutrition and simple canopy management. Every day she’s producing more side branches, larger leaves and a noticeably thicker main stem. If she continues at this pace over the coming weeks, she should enter flowering with an excellent framework capable of producing an even canopy and plenty of well-positioned bud sites. Sometimes the best training isn’t about bending, topping or cutting—it’s simply about giving the plant everything it needs and then getting out of its way. A huge thank you to Plagron, Zamnesia, GrowDiaries, and everyone following this Project Blue adventure. Mr. Baggy made his usual inspection this week and left with a big smile. According to him, Purple Haze has officially entered her “future forest” phase, and judging by the way she’s growing, it’s hard to disagree. Growers Love đŸŒ±đŸ›ïž

I decided to top her at the beginning of week 3 and she did super well! More than happy with all the extra growth I got from doing the Topping. Just debating on doing some lead stripping on it to allow more light into the bottom and center of the plant

As for what I've been doing for maintenance, I've been watching and waiting and just adding water when needed into the reservoir, should be less then 2 or 3 days by now

This week was amazing to see the growth really start. Felt like a little kid again when observing the first pointy leaves that come through! To think these 9 are going to provide us with the most beautiful, versatile plant on our planet, is just awesome. Eradicating the need to fuel crime by putting money in dealers pockets, and taking full control of the wonders I’ll be inhaling and consuming. They didn’t need much attention day to day, just moving windowsills morning/afternoon, and watering when the soil/pots looked dry. Thankfully haven’t had much trouble with them, although one of the FastBuds original AK’s isn’t looking so great. She’s not as developed as the others as you can see. She’s not received any different treatment or water or anything different at all to the others. Maybe I need to investigate more. I’ve decided to try stay as organic as possible with this grow. With that said, I’ve been brewing up a nettle tea to make a good nitrogen feed for the girls. Nitrogen is said to be needed most during veg stage, so preparing as much as I can.

8/5 (Day 49)- The start of a new week! Last few days have been a little rough and I have unfortunately been unable to keep up the post. Dealing with a back injury so it’s been difficult just to keep up with the feedings. We are looking pretty good though and starting to feel a bit better. The last few days I’ve been slowly but surely trying to get a good defoliation in which I feel was needed very badly. Opened up a lot of place for light and airflow. Messing with the back left plant and OMG my hands got sticky quick! I leaned in for a close smell and all I can think of when I smell is candy, a very sweet smelling candy. It shocked me how sweet and yummy the smell was. All conditions for the environment are stable and kept in check. The girls are taking down 4-5 gallons a day now. Will continue to update this week. Thanks! 8/6 (Day 50)- Just monitored and checked in on everything today. Starting to feel better so not too worried about the change out in the morning. Gonna up the light and ppms a bit tomorrow then monitor very close the next few days. I think they should be good. Everything staying in check. 8/7 (Day 51)- Changed res and new fresh food for the ladies. I increased light power a little as well as PPMs. Going to monitor next few days, then when my back is 100% gonna do one last round of defoliation and trimming as well as put up the trellis net. I know it’s a bit late but the two plants on the right may need it. 8/8 (Day 52) - Just have been monitoring and refilling the res today. They are drinking 4-5 gallons a day. I also did a light light defoliation. I will be going through in the next day or so to do a bit more in depth defoliation to open up for more light and air. These girls grow and recover so fast. 8/9 (Day 53)- The two plants on the right are continuing to stretch quite a bit! The left plants seem to be short bushier plants, also im very sure I could have easily dont something to stunt them and not realize, but they seem to be pretty darn healthy. Did some defoliation, I've honestly been plucking leaves here and there everyday and focusing specifically on a plant when I feel it gets too bushy. They bounce back very quickly so that has been my method along with tying some branches down and bending here and there. 8/10 (Day 54) - Wow that back right girl is really growing. She has really been stretching the last two days. Just monitoring and adding to the res every so often. They are continuing to drink 4-5 gallons a day and all conditions stay in check. I did move one fan to get more airflow through the bottom of the canopy. I feel like I have constantly been moving things around this grow, trying to get a feel of what's best for the plants. As always, tips and recommendations appreciated!

First week of flowering! I chose to also do some lst on this lady, a bit of a different approach. She survived a couple of very warm days(32°C). The lower leaves started to die off so I used some more nutes. Watered with 2l(nutes), 1,5l(no nutes) and 2l(nutes). She is starting to smell a bit also, looking forward to seeing the buds!

I'm mitigate from this experience , the grow was not optimal why ? Maybe because my main thing is not to grow auto flower but femenised , the #3 was hermaphrodite plant ...

Once again this week will be focusing on watering and keeping environment dialed in. Plants have some burnt tips from abit of nutrient burn, even though the fertilizer is slow release. Could have added to early into stage of growth. One of the three is really weird. It's buds are very small and there are a lot of them. Significantly taller than the other three as well. Not sure if it's genetics, or perhaps I messed up training it. Either way, doesn't seem very hopeful in terms of bud size. The other 3 are thickening up and are sticky as hell. The trichomes are coming in hard and the buds are getting weight. The smell is incredible, kind of a sweet sativa like aroma to them. Hopefully this week we will see more growth in bud on all plants.
