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: 1.

If there's anything on your mind about the gear or just want to talk shop, I'm all ears! I can't wait to update you all as these tents transform into thriving jungles of green. Here's to a bountiful season and some top-tier strains! Stay Lifted, Salokin

Day8: First day of the new week. I assume still pretty much focusing on roots, as the top didn't really do much today. Day9: Nothing special. But she's growing Day10: Still roots, it seems. Very little happening up top. Day11: Effort being put into growing the top leaves. They increased in size. I assume that the next node will start tomorrow - kicking off the switch into Veg. Day12: Next node already showing :D Day13: I put in a humidifier and changed the cycle of the extractor to keep more moisture in the growbox. My humidity was way too low. Day14: This time the humidity was too high. It was sitting at around 95% when the lights went on.

Primera semana en la que se ve una mejoría en general de las plantas. Me hubiese gustado anotar aquí el día de germinación y transplante a tierra, datos a considerar.

These girls are LOOOOONGG! The stretch has been like no other I have ever seen! 2 of the plants are well over 2 ft. tall, one of which was already super cropped at the beginning of flower because it had a few mains a little higher than the rest on it. The other 2 aren't too far off though, they're right there with them. I've been out of space in my closet horizontally for about the last week or so, and was quickly running out of vertical space as well so I upgraded spaces to a new AC Infinity tent, 3' x 3' x 6', ANDDDDDD come to find out I'm rapidly approaching the ceiling of that already on day 1 in the tent! We're almost at 3 full weeks flowering (since light flip) so I'm hoping like hell this stretch is over or about there because if not, it's going to be a super long 6-7 weeks, smh 😳. And sorry for the booboo quality video, my phone was being weird today.. Enjoy the update me maties 🏴‍☠️

Not much to say about the GG#4 at this time, will update in about two weeks with dry weight/flavor/smoke info. Overall I am happy with this strain and how it grew. Update June 19, 95 grams dry bud. Very impressed with the bud size, density, color and stickyness. First smoke impression is hints of fruit and citrus, sweet aroma and flavor. Very mellowing high, just feel like relaxing on the couch with a large pizza lol 😁

Flowering day 2: For a new strain i am so impressed with her growth. She has performed great to this stage. Her flowers are forming amazingly quickly and she is taking the quadlining very seriously. All her shoots are looking able.to bear good sized buds and her secondary ones are fighting to get to the canopy top. This early on and needing a clearout of the small pointless growth , i feel she will be a great yielder of some dense nugs. Have green days folks.

Hey!✋ The timely measures taken brought positive results - it is almost unnoticeable that the plants had problems a week ago.😇 I continue to bend the branches, remove excess foliage for better illumination of new shoots. This time I won’t delay the cycle for long; if everything goes according to plan, in a week I will switch the light schedule to flowering. Thank you for stopping by, and be healthy! 🙏 To be continued... 😶

She is much prettier than she was a week ago :) I remembered that I have my first grow light, which is more compact and it will give me more space, so I changed my light, now the girl's side branches get light too:) I add a lot of video memes, because I really want to win Iphone16 pro ;) and those who don't take risks don't drink champagne:) good luck to everyone.

Week six I’ve been watering when dry and I bumped the nutrients up a bit. I started to prune some of the lower fan leaves to help with the bud growth. Everything looks to be going well with Billy by Mandy still seems to be pretty small.
