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:

-Tag 15 Eleven Roses hat heute wieder etwas Dünger bekommen, sie wächst am besten von allen vier neuen 😍
-Tag 16 Sie will unbedingt Kinder haben XD deswegen haben wir heute den ersten Klon geschnitten, den Kopf, und sie sind jetzt zusammen umgezogen in unser kleines Zelt wo wir die Luftfeuchtigkeit besser kontrollieren können. Wir haben Clonex Gel benutzt. Drückt uns die Daumen 😃
-Tag 17 wir haben die Mutti heute wieder mit den Mikroorganismen gegossen und die stinken schon sehr stark, irgendwie nach Erbrochenem 😖
--Tag 2 das Kind sieht lebendig aus
-Tag 19 die Luftfeuchtigkeit ist sehr hoch deshalb brauchen wir die Mutti nicht zu gießen, die Erde trocknet gar nichts
--Tag 4 das Kind hat ein paar schwarze Flecken und etwas gelitten am den größere Blätter aber sieht immer noch lebendig aus 😳
-Tag 21 Mutti braucht immer noch kein Wasser
--Tag 6 Im zwei tage sollte das Kind wurzeln entwickeln haben, wir sind gespant 😕

Day 60 since seed touched soil. AK is going great !
Watered girls yesterday. Thinking to do heavy bottom clearing today. Dropped idea of third scrog level. Girls are secured enough and i dont want to loose access totally. Running out of height ...
Distance to light- around 15 cm. Mars TSL2000 works just fine, with open window i keep day temps in 22-24 range.
Took down all LST, cleared bottoms.
Day 62. They run !!!! Already panicking and contemplating idea of taking carbon filter out of the tent. Have 25-30 cm left, space to light like 10 cm ;)))) Tops next to walls starting to drift behind, obviously not right coverage aka distance to light too small, not using all footprint wise ...
Happy Growing !!!

Got some pics of #6 in regular light did some defoliating and took some late clones from lower branches soaking up some water.
Ps.
This week is two days early so my other diary's can be spaced out more.

So I gave the plant one more dynomyco feeding.
I’m over watering her a bit—- going to have to control that a bit more.
No nutrients yet.
Looks like she is pre flowering a touch.

Ci siamo! Siamo arrivati quasi al traguardo...questi giorni le ragazze sono al loro massimo splendore e l'odore nella stanza e fortissimo! Anche questo aggiornamento è stato fatto grazie all'aiuto di mia madre che gentilmente mi ha tenuto e curato le bambine, sono contento perché sembra che è riuscita a seguire tutte le mie istruzioni e questa volta non ci sono stati problemi...è la prima volta che mi capita di competere in un contest e farmi mandare foto per mail..chiedo scusa se la messa a fuoco non è sempre delle migliori e personalmente non posso chiedere di meglio, è un lavoro che mi serviva e sono dovuto partire lasciando tutto indietro...tornando ai nostri fiori, il green sensation di Plagron devo dire che ha fatto la differenza, contando che il cibo questa volta è stato preparato interamente da me, ha fatto un ottimo lavoro e i fiori sembrano dirlo forte! Cercherò di aggiornare l'ultimo step prima della fine...tra due giorni farò tagliare le ragazze! A presto!!!

Plants are looking ridiculously dank rn. Buds r coming in nicely. Lights on 11.5 hours on and 12.5 off I believe that will speed up flowering. I also gave it 36 hour lights off period b4 I started flower. As u know I gave it a top dressing first day of flower. Well it’s been 3 weeks so I gave them a feeding of coconut water. And not the cheap stuff either. Next week I’ll give it organic fish emulsion, then molasses, and last will be a half molasses half honey mixture. I’ve had no issues mixing sugars as I believe different sugar sources have different benefits. Based on what I read about each of them. Molasses is supposed to be the best. Everyone says that. But I believe coconut water will battle that. Who knows maybe when I grow outdoors I’ll do an experiment and test which sugar will work best. I’ll even test a couple plants with mixed sugar which my hypothesis is that that one will work best.

Hey all,
Its been a few weeks so lets take a peak at our Blueberry manifold. Last time we topped our girl down to the 3rd node and removed all other growth except the two growth tip and their fan leaves. Over the past two weeks shes continued to grow an addition four pairs of leaves on each arm. This wee we will cut those branches back to the 3rd node and then clean all other growth from the plant except what remains on the 1st and 3rd node of each side. This should give us 8 main colas that will grow up from these eight remaining growth tips.
Continuing to feed as normal while trying to get the soil PH up to a proper level.

📆 Semana Final - Eternity Grow Cup 2025 📆
¡Y llegamos al final de esta increíble experiencia en la Eternity Grow Cup! La Runtz de Zamnesia ha dado lo mejor de sí misma, con cogollos densos, llenos de resina y un perfil aromático que se ha intensificado a lo largo de la competencia. La combinación de genética y Green Sensation de Plagron ha sido todo un acierto, resultando en una floración espectacular.
Los tricomas ya están en su punto máximo, y la planta no ha mostrado signos de estrés en ningún momento, lo que demuestra que el cuidado y los productos utilizados han dado sus frutos. La estructura de la planta ha sido perfecta, con cogollos consistentes en todas las zonas.
Con temperaturas controladas y un entorno bien manejado, los resultados son más que satisfactorios. Ha sido un verdadero placer participar en esta competición y ver cómo la Runtz crecía y evolucionaba con cada semana.
¡Gracias a todos por el apoyo y, sin duda, seguiré aprendiendo y mejorando para la próxima! 🍀💪

4 Purple Push Pops PPP (grew 2023 outside). Clones from my clone guy.
1000w LED, 4G Autopots, coco/perlite 65/35, RO water, Jacks RO, AC pro Controller and T8, 5x5 GG Tent with extension. Garage grow SoCal
We concluded the ripening this week with AC and dehumidification at 70° 40% relative humidity lights on and 65° and 45% relative humidity lights off.
We’re feeding Jacks RO and silica to the end, hence the fan leaves are still relatively healthy. This is a no flush grow.
I’ve n been growing at 80% lights (800w) for most of the Grow. During ripening, I pushed it to 90% or 900 W. On the final day, I run the lights 24 hours and I run 15 minute cycles of 900 W and 1000 W.
Just following the science; No more flushing and push the lights higher and higher at the end.
We started a slow chop to fine tune the quality and get more light deeper into the canopy.
After 4 more days of testing and monitoring they were ready, it all came down and we filled the 6-tier drying rack.
We’re curing At 70° and 55% relative humidity for two days and then bumping that humidity to 62%. The test round (top colas) is already in jars and beginning the burping stage.
Fiancé is happy, the hard work is coming to an end, and it’s time to start enjoying the fruits of our labor.
Best of luck on your grow.

The black cherry gushers ended up being one of the tallest plants. The tops of the plant was the only plant hat was not perfect colors this was a little light green but soon as I started adding some micros and cal mag it started to come around the structure is not the greatest but the plant has a good smell
