Hey Growmies!
I'm buzzing with excitement to share my latest project: two top-notch grow environments. Each tent is a lush green oasis, accommodating 9 plants, all conveniently set on plant rollers. We're employing a smart mix of Scrog (Screen of Green) and Sog (Sea of Green) techniques here. Imagine this: each plant enjoys its individual Scr.o.G., connected right to its air-pot, allowing for effortless mobility and care within the tent. Sounds cool, doesnât it?
Positioned in a cooler room, I've strategically installed a Solea infrared heater, seamlessly controlled by an Inkbird ITC-308 temperature controller, to maintain a cozy climate. For ideal humidity, each tent is equipped with a Spider Farmer Cool Mist humidifier. Originally, I aimed to have identical setups in both tents, but as all cultivators know, adaptation is key. I ran into an automation snag with the UR45 lights due to their single plug and UV/IR switches. This meant I couldn't run IR in the mornings and evenings and UV during the day without manual intervention. Thus, in Tent 1, Iâve opted for two UR45 lights: one always on IR and the other on UV, each managed by a Meross smart plug.
The Mars Hydro app is at the helm of the light and in-line fan controls, although it's got its limitations. The ITC-308 oversees the infrared heater, and the humidifier self-regulates. Overall, I'm loving the setup, yet I'm already contemplating an upgrade to a single grow controller for all devices in the future.
This grow season is extra special as Iâm collaborating with Anesia Seeds and Ganja Farmer Seeds. They've sponsored some amazing strains for this venture. In Tent #1, I'm growing âEpic Buzzâ, âRed Banana Puddingâ, and âPink Matcha Slushâ from Anesia Seeds, starting with three seeds of each. Tent #2 will feature âCaramelâ, âGMOâ, and âBruce Banner x White Russianâ from Ganja Farmer Seeds, also with three plants each. I will meticulously document their growth journeys in individual grow diaries. Dive into each strain's story through these links:

3. Anesia Seeds - Pink Matcha Slush (https://growdiaries.com/diaries/189993-anesia-seeds-pink-matcha-slush-grow-journal-by-salokin)

6. Ganja Farmer Seeds - Bruce Banner x White Russian (https://growdiaries.com/diaries/190091-ganja-farmer-seeds-bruce-banner-x-white-russian-grow-journal-by-salokin)

At first tastes like orange all the way now it has a creamy side to it too and it packs a punch every time I smoke it im in a phase of nearly falling asleep body feels warm and fuzzy (lovely high) very strong! Buds come dense and sticky best one Iâve grown so far! Actually the FFT8 mmmm is drying and smells the best!
Best girl Iâve grown so far and my auto experience has only been a dream! I will continue to do both autos and femz and try and expand my experience now and try new things but Iâll defiantly be sticking to organic! My fastbuds tester fft8 is fully covered with frostiness and smells a dream! So defiantly will be choosing organic always had the biggest plants densest buds when using organic! Wish I did with these girls but all in all she was amazing and yielded A whopping 55.15 shy off 2 oz off a single plant! My green crack and purple queen came up to just over a Z! Iâll be growing orange sherbet again already started her lol hope you enjoy gromies! Smoke and ash report in about 2 weeks let these babies cure a bit!
This girl rises above all the others! Handled the heat at 36c at a couple of times! She got the most resin and terps she absolutely smells of orange peel and orange sunset sunny D! Iâm amazed at how much she yielded and I didnât even top her! Amazing stuff would recommend to anyone even the most basic growers can handle this one!

BewÀsserung: 500 ml jeden 3 Tag in der Sechsten Woche
pH-Wert: 5,8
EC-Wert: 0,4 mS/cm
Temperatur: 30ÂșC
Luftfeuchtigkeit: 50%
SchĂ€dlingsbekĂ€mpfung: im Moment haben wir keine Anzeichen von befall wir haben nur mal zur PrĂ€vention etwas Sand gegen die Schnecken um die Pflanze gemacht, dies verhindert das diese sich nĂ€hern. Wir haben aber auch Raubmilben ins spiel gebracht zur vorsorge gegen Spinnmilben und andere SchĂ€dlinge đ
PPFD: Direktes Sonnenlicht
DLI: Direktes Sonnenlicht
-Tag 31 beide haben die Verpflanzung in die Erde ĂŒberlebt đ und die Bubatz #3 macht sich auch sehr gut, diese wird weiter mit LST Trainiert.
-Tag 32 sie wachsen auch so langsam in die höhe und haben beide heute wieder Wasser bekommen.

(see the leaf picture)
I got no calmag as im very low on cash right now. hope she will do great without it

The coockies are now on day 21
Update:

WEEK 5 START OF DAY 29
âïžNUTRIENTS USED THIS WEEKâïž
Front Row AG Si .5g per gallon
Front Row AG Part A 2.9g per gallon
Front Row AG part B 2.0g per gallon
Front Row AG Phoszyme .4g per gallon
Front Row AG Bloom 2.3g per gallon
Front Row AG CleanUp .2g per gallon
FLUSH NUTRIENTS
Canna PK13/14 60ml per 10 gallons
GH CalMag 6ml per gallon
End of week 5 I flush the plants with 1.0EC solution of Canna PK13/14 and CalMag. This is also done at end of week 2. I believe it kickstarts the flower phase and continues stalled growth that can happen at end of week 5 going into week 6.
This week I am starting to see all around growth come to an end. Iâve implemented a trick over the last couple years that seems to work well. Along with the swell that takes place the last few weeks of flower we are gonna try and boost flower production a bit as well đ.
Thanks for all the likes and especially the comments. Iâve got a few huge shout outs coming the way of a few growers for next weeks update. See you then!

Added cal-mag this week as I noticed the leaves on my GDP were turning yellow, but also seems the are a bit purple now too... I think the real issue may have been PH though as I tested the run off and it was closer to 5.5-6 vs the water which I had been trying to keep at least 6.5 but as I'm learning I need a lot more PH up now to keep it balanced with the amount of nutes. Probably should have flushed at some point to help correct the PH but I have just watered with slightly more basic solution, ~7 reducing slightly each watering to 6.5, picked up a PH pen as I'm getting low on the test liquid. The buds are getting fat and sticky, the smell is nice as well. 3 weeks left, harvest should be on 55th day of flower, the 8th
I'm estimating at least 2 ounces dry from the cheese, hoping to get at least 3 or 4 off the rest of these though. đ time will tell.
Stay high đ

All pictures were taken on day 43
She is definitely in 1st week of flowering and stretched a lot the last couple of days
She grew a massive stem. It is many times thicker than the photoperiodic stemsđ
I gave her 600ml tap water with 1ml/l BioBloom, 1ml/l TopMax, 0.3ml/l BioGrow added end of the week
