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:

Could have done a much better job overall but I'm pleased with it anyway as the plants produced some really nice smoke 🙌

Been told this is a lovely strain to grow so looking forward to seeing how she does. Fell over after a few days and needed help to stand up but other than that and some minor calmag defiency which is probably already corrected for, she's doing fine and catching up to the others in the tent fast.
Hope you all enjoy my first attempt at a 1 week timelapse. I'll intend to record the whole grow this way so follow along for updates and please let me know any tips/tricks any of you may have for recording / editing. This plant is the front right in the video.
Happy growing, happy smoking!

Day 36: I bend the branches even more, cut off the top leaf that covered 2 buds, one of them is very small, I hope to give it at least a little chance to grow. This is a victim of a broken branch.

This week we start with some LST... The second Runtz didn't make it, so I've thrown it away now.

Que pasa familia, estamos actualizando la primera semana de floración de estas Kritical de GrowBarato.
Cómo podéis apreciar en las imágenes el color que tienen es espectacular y con esa vegetación y vigorosidad pintan de miedo.
Además siendo tan rápidas , de 57/63 días, las tendremos listas como quien dice en un abrir y cerrar de ojos.
Agrobeta:

Mars hydro:
Code discount: EL420
https://www.mars-hydro.com/
Las maximas de temperatura no superan los 26 grados y las mínimas no bajan 19, así que no me puedo quejar.
Los niveles de humedad también son los correctos van entre 50%/60%de humedad relativa.
Por supuesto el Ph lo estamos dejando alrededor de 6.
Hasta aquí es todo poco más la verdad, solo deciros que buenos humos 💨💨💨y nos vemos el finde en SPANNABIS.

Decided to call it flower now, since the buds are forming.. i have never seen plants this big in real life before, so it will be exciting to see. Especially when the big bad buds appear. the plant that stands alone in a pot, first pic of this week, was actually stripped to the stem in it's early stage of life, as an experiment. you can see it in pic 3 of week 4. and again later in the diary, with the 2 bigger plants under the "scrOG fence"

Posting this as I’m on the last few days of the 3rd week from germination
Great progress, a lot of roots for such a short period but not too much plant growth, will start watering daily instead of watering every 2-3 days
Topped the girls today (Day 18 from germ) and starting to do mainline on all the Bubba kush.

these 2 seeds from the same pack are definitely different: the topped girl is massive, with multiple heads that are only starting to stop growing (i hope she will finally concentrate on her buds!), while the LST girl has a nice structure with 6 buds that are growing day by day.
one classic, the other with great potential... i love this session. 😊
miscalculation on my part at the beginning of the week: I doubled all the nutrients, confusing the volume of my cans... 😓
coco is not forgiving, the burns appeared the next day;
but fortunately, it is corrected just as quickly: I emptied the bowls and diluted the water in the tank, I performed a haircut on the two girls (one burned, the other a little wilted), and here they are in great shape at the end of the week. The resin appeared on the LST girl this week.
another thing: the bleach has already proved its worth; not a single worm in my water, no more smell of algae in the tank, despite a rather sporadic maintenance... 😏

D29 Did top dressing with bone and kelp meal as well as worm castings.
D31 Performed a little more LST, a few more days and I will let her do her thing.
D32 More LST exposed lower nodes and evened out the canopy.
D33 Removed all bonsai wire and rolled down the rim of the pot to even it out with to soil, more airflow.
D35 Not much growth but overall looking pretty good. Heatwave last couple days keep temperatures higher than desired.
