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, doesnโt 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, Iโve 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 Iโm collaborating with Anesia Seeds and Ganja Farmer Seeds. They've sponsored some amazing strains for this venture. In Tent #1, I'm growing โEpic Buzzโ, โRed Banana Puddingโ, and โPink Matcha Slushโ from Anesia Seeds, starting with three seeds of each. Tent #2 will feature โCaramelโ, โGMOโ, and โBruce Banner x White Russianโ 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:

El secado fgue bantante rapido, olorosas, sabrosas al comsumo y asotan como toda una verdadera indica. la cosecha es poca, pero la sepa es exotica. Muchos terpenos, los colores de la sepa son violetosos y verde flourecente. La recomiendo altamente, solo que su cosecha por planta es poca.

Just another week of 24/0 veg in their new 4in pots. They've hit the stride past clone stage I'd say and are shooting up. They are ready for a leaf stripping and training about now. They're about out of room in the clone spot. They can hit the lights in there though cause they are just 10w shop lights and don't seem to do anything bad, even being right on the bulbs.
So 3 rows of strains going vertical in the pics, like Bruce is the three pots on the left, Orange Blossom Middle, and Krishna on the right. Then horizontally three feed lines, so one of each strain is getting each mix. 3 part AN in the front row. Lucas method 1:2 GH micro:bloom in the middle row. Then GH maxibloom only in the back row.
Not sure I am seeing any difference yet but they did just get a transplant and are probably doing fine with the leftovers in the coco for now. We'll start to see more of a dif soon in the bigger lights in the Veg space. Or we won't see a difference and everybody is getting maxibloom only, all the time!

The plants have taken to their Earthboxes, especially #1 with the BuildASoil Light. The Earthbox with my Coots mix was the runt, plus I damaged the roots during transplant so it has an uphill battle, but I wouldn't count it out yet. It was looking droopy and with slight discoloration, but after a drench of Kashi Blend Tea (1/3 cup Kashi Blend, 1 teaspoon blackstrap molasses in 1 gallon of water for 24 hours) it perked right up.
As for preventative pest management, I've kept doing foliar applications every 4 days of EM-FPE -> EM-1, next week I will incorporate the just-finished EM-5. I made a JADAM wetting agent (JWA) but I have realized even local bottled water is too mineral-heavy for it, so I will need to find a source of distilled water if I want to use it in my foliar regime.
Next week I will begin doing LST to get some more tops going. At some point I plan to add a trellis, I have been busy with work but I will find the time to set up something, preferably a trellis that can move with the Earthbox to facilitate maintenance and not have them fixed in place for the entire training and flowering cycles.

Moin an alle 3. Woche is durch lรคuft alles ganz OK bis auf die lady hinten rechts das Ph Problem besteht immer noch zwar schwankt es hart aber es nervt gibt sonnst nicht viel zu berichten stretch sollte so gut wie durch sein deshalb habe ich heute am 01.07.22 also freitag nochmal Zusรคtzlich ringe eingezogen um die Pflanzen ein wenig auseinander zu spreizen um mehr Licht an die einzelnen Blรผtenstรคnde zu bekommen sollte man aber auf dem Video ganz gut sehen kรถnnen. Was ich interessant finde das ich die Woche รผber eine Geruchs explosion der Ladys hatte Montag roch sie typisch nach Gras, Dienstag roch sie wie saure kotze, Mittwoch wie ne sรผรe Frucht, Donnerstag roch sie garnicht, und seid heute also Freitag ne Mischung aus sauer fruchtig und typischem Gras Geruch der aber sehr tief in die Nase eindringt und dort lรคnger verweilt. irgendwie interessant mal sehen was die nรคchsten Wochen noch so mit sich bringen vll mischt sich ja noch ein anderer Geruchs ton mit ein...

Getting close to the end here. The good news is there are no new signs of bud rot, yay! I'll start chopping the first 2 down this weekend and cut down the 3rd in another week.
I plan on making CBD capsules with these girls. Any comments or advice on the best process for making capsules would be appreciated! ๐

Venga familia, cosecha de estas Sagrada Amnesia de Seedstockers, que ganas que tenia ya estaban para darles machete.
Que pinta que tienen estas plantas.
Las flores aparte llevan una capa muy resinos y son prietas, aparte son bien aromรกticas huelen bien fuerte afrutada sobre todo, con toques terrosos.
En general es una genรฉtica con la que disfrutรฉ bastante cultivarla, la genรฉtica es un clรกsico que para cultivos de floraciรณn corta media con rangos entre los 20/25 grados en interior, es normalita al cultivarla y bien resistente, es excelente para cultivadores principiantes.
Hasta aquรญ es todo, agradecer a Mikele, Giorgio de Seedstockers, y al equipo Agrobeta por hacer posible estos proyectos espero que los disfrutรฉis, buenos humos ๐จ๐จ.

Week 1 went off perfectly, purples babies reaching WEEK 2!
๐ PRESENTATION OF THE LADIES ๐
------------------------------------------
The four plants are the same genetic. But they already have a different look, and I would introduce them to you :)
1) The Ugly - She have terrible first leaves. But she isn't late compared to the other. So I still believe in my Ugly!
2) The fatties - 2 of them grew wide leaves. It's just about leaves shape for now.
3) The solar panel - This one grew less wide but longer leaves.
Regarding the Ugly, I must say that for the 4 seeds, I had to manually remove the shell when they sprouted.
They all had their shell on after sprouting, and I don't like that. Probably a bit old seeds?
For now, they share the same needs, and seems all happy.
But this might change. I may even not be abble to recognize them, except if I cheat on them by putting labels on their pots ^^
๐ง WATERING ๐ง
------------------
Luckily, the weather is offering some rains, and I been abble to put the ladies out under the rain during day 7 and 8.
Not that long, they still got watered on Day 8, some hours after the rain. With feeding for the first time!
๐ FEEDING ๐
------------------
First feeding. Used Fish-mix at 0.8ml/L. I plan to have a second watering in the week, but without nutrients. That's why I written 0.4ml/L in diary settings.
If you know me, you also know that I like Fish-mix, but that I'm also effraid of it ^^ As foliar later during veg, it's an awesome products, easy to see that plants love it.
But it seems verry powerfull, and need to be used carefully when given to plant. My rule is to limit to 50% of recommended dose. For now.
Anyway, Fishmix right after a rain must turn on every form of life in soil I believe ๐ Even life coming from rain.
๐ก GROWING CONDITIONS ๐ก
-----------------------------------
Starting an indoor session on the end of summer seems a good choice for me:
- Some rains that provide me better water
- I can put the ladies out if verry sunny, to save electricity/money
- Perfect temps in the grow room. My house is always windows open. โThe growroom lightup in the end of the afternoon, when the day get cooler
- Plants will flowering indoor during winter. I need heat during winter, so thanks grow room :D And cold air mean verry dry air! So reaching low humidity on the end of flowering will be verry easy!
Pests : Nothing to report for now. I'm expecting a visit of my good old friends the thrips in 2-3 weeks ๐
Grow tent & Light (XS2000 ViparSpectra) : Something I notice just now: I'm abble to close the grow tent without air-extraction. I never been abble to do that in the past.
This light is waaaay more efficient, and produce way less heat, because I couldn't keep tent close with my previous Mars Hydro TSW2000.
Don't be effraid, I still renew the air in tent multiple times a day ;)

Thanks for reading guys :) Thanks for crossing your fingers last week, as you can see.... it worked!
PS : Improved my skill with my new camera. But except more and more better ones as I practice ^^

Itโs day 33โfrom seed. All of the plants are really healthy. The plants have a really great root system at this pointโฆ I am currently slowly moving the light intensity up to the veg area. Now that are in a groove they are about to explodeโฆ Iโm hoping I can flip the plants to flower in 1 weeks but Iโm thinking I will wait to weeks and let them get a little larger. The plants are just now starting to look visually different next weeks update I will be ababoe to go into the visual differences, they are just not that extreme yet to really talk to much about.

la seconda pianta ossia quella che non era ermafrodita รจ stata impollinata solo nel ramo in diretto raggio del ventilatore, forse avrei potuto pensarci, comunque ho 12 semi, per il resto non ho trovato molti semi e sono soddisfatto nel complesso, la pianta non ermafrodita ha avuto un esplosione di tricomi, veramente piena, per altro le cime sembravano pesare molto, per adesso stanno seccando, di muffa ne ho trtovata poc e niente
