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:

Hi everyone,
this week went pretty smoothly. She is growing well and she actually took 15 cm during this week. I'm pretty happy with that and I guess it's gonna be the same the coming week.
I'm just adjusting the distance between the lamp and the canopy and that's pretty much it.
I'm questioning if I shouldn't have taken the little branches from the middle out as they are now putting some lower bud sites on the main branches in the shadow. That's how it is now so I'll go along with it.
Today I removed some lower leaves on the branches that are in the middle. They are pretty thin so it won't produce anything anyway.
The coming week will pretty much be the same as this one I guess. I'm looking forward to doing the massive defoliation from the schwazzing technique next week. That'll be the first time I do it, hopefully that won't be a mistake!
As usual, let me know in the comments if you have any advice or remarks.
Take care everyone and see you next week!

Day 79 - Another week passes, not much to post, normal feeding, 1000 ppm 6.2 PH, normal lights,
the girls are fattening up nicely...... 😎
Day 84 - some pics/vids.... pics of a Test Bud (ready for curing)......doing some experimentation..... read up about drying and curing,
but i don't have a set method, so test abit..... never grown bud before..... 👍
my tent is really small, i think 50x120x160 or something... and it's tight in there, i have no other source of
herb, so i'm going to start getting into the smaller one, and focus the light on the larger one..... i've been trimming and drying all during the grow....
there's really only enough room for the big one, and it's really squishy in the tent........ 😎

da die ladys in zukunft zwischen den erdbeeren stehen werden hab ich dort schon mal eine tröpfchenbewässerung verlegt.
noch reicht die bewässerung mit den literflaschen locker eine woche, aber das wird sich bald ändern.
aber bis dahin stehen sie weiter im gewächshaus.

Ok, so first week of introducing the trip tonic line of feed into the medium and getting rid of the lotus crap, all of the newer growth is looking much better and some of the older growth is greening up but I don't expect a full fix for that. Gave some extra grow B in this week as it is higher in P and K and will act as a small PK boost for the stretch that is to come. Flipped my plants to flower as well so they are now on a 12/12 setting. Been using the medic grows mini sun 2's internal timer in the lights and they appear to be working just fine. They have pre-programmed setting of 12/16/18/20/22 "on" cycles, I thought it might have been hold the dial till the number you want came up but its not that fancy. As of now my photoperiod is from 1:30pm-1:30am but I might move this up to 12pm-12am so when I need to look at my plants I'm not waiting till the afternoon. Its really only an issue on the days I'm working. over all happy with the progress, Plants are drinking lots so I'm happy with that.
Lights still running at 80% with V1 spectrum, will increase to 100% after stretch, don't need to growing into them and burning up.
Till next week.

Baklava de The Plug Seeds es un cruce de Wedding Cake X Gelato. Hay varios Phenos (3) el mejor para mi gusto es bastante púrpura y de gran rendimiento. Soporta bien altas cargas de fertilizante como además las altas temperaturas de verano. Con el frío tiende a cambiar el color a negro/purpura con tonos de verde lima y rojizos cobres. Terpenos que recuerdan a una bolleria o panadería, toques dulces, mantequilla, frutos secos, canela, miel y el pheno Gelato sale mas a crema dulce terrosa. Hay un pheno que es bastante mas Kush y Gassy! Altos contenidos en THC y muy buenos resultados para hacer extracciones.

Strain: Fast Buds – Mixed Photoperiod Pack
Grow Type: Indoor
Pot Size: Solo Cup
Medium: Peat Moss & Perlite
Nutrient Line: Athena
Week 2 Update
Week two is moving along well overall. This plant was also affected by the AC issues in the room, with higher daytime temperatures pushing the VPD up more than I’d like. Humidity stayed more or less in range, and despite the heat, she’s holding up well so far. Growth looks steady and healthy, with no obvious signs of stress.
Once the AC is sorted, I’m expecting her to really pick up pace. For now, she’s responding fine and staying on track.
Feeding
• Volume: 300–400 ml
• Frequency: As needed
• pH: 6.2
• PPM: 400–500 ppm
Indoor Climate Conditions (Vegetative)
🌡️ Day Temperature: 30°C
🌙 Night Temperature: 20°C
💧 Humidity: 60–65%
📈 VPD: 2.4 kPa
See y’all next week!
And don’t forget to use my discount code ISLANDT for 15% off your next order at Fast Buds 🌿🔥

The permanent marker plants I think they are really going to stack nicely they didn't seem to like being topped the greatest they are healthy it's just the growth after topping the nodes are so close together it's hard for it to develop leaves. I think these plants would if done nicely growing them without topping them they are going to be nice and short. I'm still excited about bith the phone being very different and they are really starting to show different structure along with leaves
This past week, the plants went from being weak little plants that had just been top and now they are on there way to being nice and sturdy. I could flip them to flower now if I wanted. I plan on letting them grow a few more nodes on each branch before I give them the flip. My hopes is I get longer colas if I let it ride out longer in veg cutting off all the lower growth b4 flower. I have had the light on 25% still but today I raised it up to 3o% I like to have them handling 40% nicely before I turn them to flower

Day 50 since seed touched soil. From now on all is in stable position.
Joe always will be in left corner, under fan, he was lowest, so it was smart to put him under. Plants dont grow well next to fan.
5 liters went in, want good run off and saturation.
Later today will install second level of scrog.
Reposition all shoots, some are lost, i almost regret instaling scrog, lost control of even height a bit, but canopy is very dense, branches went fatter during that week, i am happy .
Mars TSL2000 is on 80% will increase to 90% at the end of this week.
Day 53. Second level of scrog almost eaten, will have to make third, plus heavy clearing awaits next week ...
Day 54. Think tomorrow is watering day. Girls need good clearing, bottom canopy been canibalised heavily, lack off air shows a lot. Will do third level of scrog together with watering.
Day 55. Watered Joe, he is lowest, but looks nice. Think all deficiencies behind. Made light clearing, only bottom shoots which has 0 chance to make it, took part of LST down. Watering exposed roots - plant is occupying new lair , good sign ;)
Happy Growing !!!

The looks on this one are sexy! It also burns even.
Effects wise, first 15 mins you perceive a high cerebral rush that peaks at 30 mins. Makes you feel creative and with energy. Later on, the cerebral effect dissipates and leaves you feeling all giggly and relaxed in da body.
The smell is all about sweetness and gas with a funky grapey smell hugging and keeping those close.
Colors didn't showed much cause of the 24/0 light cycle but it ended up showing some purple hues during late bloom.
Overall this girl was so fn grateful with the treatment she received.
