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, doesn’t 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, I’ve 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 I’m collaborating with Anesia Seeds and Ganja Farmer Seeds. They've sponsored some amazing strains for this venture. In Tent #1, I'm growing ‘Epic Buzz’, ‘Red Banana Pudding’, and ‘Pink Matcha Slush’ from Anesia Seeds, starting with three seeds of each. Tent #2 will feature ‘Caramel’, ‘GMO’, and ‘Bruce Banner x White Russian’ 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:

Defoliated some leaves to let light in, chopped one down early as I run out of bud 🙄 it's good for less than 4 weeks flowering.
Have them rice water starch again this week in with there food.
A layer of frost is slowly forming 😎 hopefully they will fatten up nice and frost up really good to 🤞

New week starts.
__________
🌞10.05
I've watered my plants with 'Pre-Flowering' GHE nutrient mix and spraiyed them with 'Foliar nutrients'.
🌞11.05
Nothing for today.
🌞12.05
Nothing today. No feeding, no spraying. I'm patiently waiting for the end of a week to make huge defoliation. My babies are big. Too big.
🌞13.05
The same.
🌞14.05
Found few bent up leaf tips. Thinking what it is.
Upd: I asked a grow kwestion and got an answer. As a result, I moved my lamps higher.
🌞15.05
The reddish 'rusty' marks shows up between upper leaves veins on 'RG'#2
I suspect sunburn. Asked a new grow question.
🌞16.05
It's definitely Phosphorus deficit combined with high temperature. I've measured income and outcome water and it was normal, so it's not an overfeeding.
Watering with 80% 'GHE Tripart' bloom formula with adding 80% of recommended dose of 'Advanced PK' nutrient.
Watering:
- Ph 6.2,
- CE 1.17
Drainage:
- Ph 6.25
- CE 1.09
I can't change lamp-to-plant distance, but I can put other lamp in my grow box. I have 50 watt red light grow lamp and I'll change one of my 100W lamps to it tomorrow when the light will shut down. It will be 250W instead of 300W and that should be more comfortable to the flowers, I guess. I grew the mighty 'Critical' with this setup.
Sprayed my garden with clean water and that's all for today.
___________
Week ends.

Last days for most of them - only Strawberry Cough will stay longer - she is super hungry and I can not keep up with feeding her - most of leaves are yellow now. 😱
The rest - four plants will be harvested on the weekend - 2-3 days from now and frozen - I'll be making bubble hash and fresh frozen live resin from them in the following weeks 😈
Trichomes are mostly milky with some amber starting - ideal ripeness and time to freeze those glands

Vamos familia, actualizamos la sexta semana de vida de estas Runtz Punch de Herbies.
La temperatura que estuvo entre los 24-26 grados y humedad dentro de los rangos correctos.
Todavía estamos en el ciclo 16 horas luz, 8 oscuridad, estiraron bien y ensancharon bastante también, el color es verde sano.
Se nota que los nutrientes de la marca Agrobeta hacen sus funciones.
También realicé una poda de bajos que yo si las veo necesarias para explotar después la flor.
- os dejo por aquí un CÓDIGO: Eldruida ,descuento para la tienda de MARS HYDRO.

Primera semana - Germinación en Placas de Petri sobre un invernadero calefactado, utilizando papel de cocina y pulverizando agua.
Entre 24h y 48h después germina el 50% de las semillas y a las 72h el 90%.
Mientras espero a que germinen, preparo el sustrato;
· Coco-Kaya by BioBizz and Julian Marley 75-25.
Utilizo macetas altas de 1,4L que riego con abundante agua, antes de plantar las semillas.
Cuando germinan las planto bien etiquetadas y pulverizo agua, sin regar. Así evitamos movimientos indeseados de las semillas.
18h de luz 6h de oscuridad. Los balastros ajustados a 250w.
Durante la semana, van saliendo los cotiledones de todas las plantas.

This week will arrive Bug Bud and Carboload by Advanced nutrients, let´s see how she responds :). Next week will rain a lot, so i will prepare myself and start giving her Botryprot by Prot Eco to prevent mold.
Day 50 - She´s healthy. today is the first foliar day. I used 2,5ml/L of Botryprot. Overall she looks very happy, maybe needing some PK. She´s starting to have some fresh blueberry aroma. Fingers get sticky
Day 52 - Feeding day. I added 1ml/L Alga Bloom making a total of 3ml/L. Sprayed her today again.
Day 55 - Has been hot these days, feeding day today again. Today i added 1ml/L Bid Bud, 2ml/L Carboload and 1ml/L Alga Bloom. As she´s healthy i didn´t feel i needed to slowly introduce. Let´s see how she responds, but my experiments are going well :) I´m confident.
Day 57 - Foliar spray today again. The storm will come in strong.

Hello Diary,
Milky Way F1 is ready for harvest after exactly 10 weeks.
79 days since I put the seed in the ground.
75 days since Apollo F1 rose from the ground.
All 10 weeks passed without any problems, Milky Way F1 as well as her roommates proved how resilient, fast and hopefully generous they are.
I'm very happy with how things look so far.
Finally, as seen in the photos, Milky Way F1 looks impressive, the flowers are hard packed, full of trichomes.
For the last week, watering was usual, every three days.
After cutting off the stem at the bottom, I put the plant upside down in the grow box to dry.
Here's what the last week looked like.
02/07/2023 - Day 64.
Watering. I watered the plant with about 2 liters of water.
05/07/2023 - Day 67.
Watering. I repeated the procedure as I did three days earlier.
08/07/2023 - Day 70.
Photography and harvesting. I put it to dry upside down and will leave it to dry for at least 2 weeks.
That's it from me. I wrote everything I thought was important.
If you have any questions related to this strain, feel free to write.

July 6: looking good starting a new week. In a few days out I’ll add another scrog layer to space out the 16 colas.
July 7: draped a piece of scrog netting across the plant and exposed the growth tips while tucking in the fan leaves. Net is not tied down as I realize it doesn’t need to be. Will add another final scrog net in about two weeks. Hot weather forecast for next two weeks which is pretty much perfect timing. 👍👍
July 10: hot last three days (32 C) with a super high overnight low last night of nearly 20 C.
Added a second scrog layer to separate out the growth tips a bit further. Adding loose scrog net layers seems to be working quite well while maintaining the easy portability that I need to chase sunlight hours in my yard.
July 12: made it through the heat wave and now back to ideal cannabis temperatures. 👍. She looks really good this morning.

Hello and thank you for stopping by, it is now day 28 in 2x4 closet and things are going very smoothly I'm watering still with a pH of 6.5 when dry. I'm having minor issues with Gnat larvae in my coco and I am going to solve the issue by watering with neem oil for the next couple weeks. I will also be trying out some hydrogen peroxide in my water at a 4:1 ratio if the neem oil fails to control the larvae. My first top dress will be in about 7 days and I am going to be doing some low stress training this week stay tuned ☺️

This week was explosive! I bumped up the grow nutrients and added the Bud Ignitor at 1/4 strength. I also increased the water amount progressively building up to a half gallon by the end of the week.
Mid week I stepped the exhaust fan up and increased the light to about 175w. I started the “new to me” training method as well getting some nice light down into the side shoots and lower canopy. Rings were left on during light cycle and misted with plain water and rings removed before lights out.
This week I also dropped the tower fan to the floor and brought the clip fan down a foot above the canopy and am running on the same schedule as the humidifier. Which is set to be on 20min before lights on and off 10 min after lights out.
Thanks for stopping by and happy growing!!! 🌞

Light on Spider farmer SF4000 was turned up to 70 percent plant is doing better. Light is still 36 inches above plants in a 2x4 tent. I turned the light to 70% from 50% 3 days later I think I see some nanners starting. Possible light stress? I am going to let it all play out really interested in seeing what happens. I am all about the learning.
