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:

Hi all ๐งโ๐พ
Welcome to my ๐๐๐ week update.
Hope everyone keeping well and having a great week๐
Thank you so much for so much support on this bananas ride ๐๐๐๐๐
Everything still going pretty well. Girls are developing and stretching like crazy. Athena currently Dec 14 90cm and main stem of Xena is not far of this height either. Unfortunately noticed first signs of calcium deficiency(my opinion) on Athena. Thankfully started feeding both girls with calmag weeks back but the dosage wasn't not enough for Athena. Started small treatment very next day on Dec 11 (see description below) I belive got my baby back on right track.
Week 9
Dec 11-17
Dec 11
Watering was planned for Tuesday but due to calcium deficiency decided for a little treatment. Watered both girls with mixture of reduced content of growth nutes by 50% calmag at 1.2 ml per ltr. Reduced solution PH to 6.2 as apperently it's ideal for calcium consumption. Over period 4h I have watered Athena with 5ltr with couple runoffs. Xena 3ltr. Total of 7-10 leaves affected mainly at top colas close to the light.
Dec 12-13
Purely observation and all looking well. Of course all affected leaves will progres of showing signs but good news is that growth and development booming and don't see any new leaves with symptoms.
Very nice trichomes development in recent days and more and more colours.
Dec 14
Second watering for this week 6.5l Increased calmag to 1.4ml per ltr and if still things will be looking well reduce to 1 or 1.2 on next feeding.
Dec 15
Very nice respond on yesterday feeding. They definitely fatten over night and getting more and more frosty. Will need to remove some foliage soon as getting extremely bushy again.
Dec 17
Xenas main stem top cola almost touched the light today. Tied her to left side of the cabinet, applied selective defoliation on both girls, tied few branches to netting and on the end of this busy day a third watering for this week. 7 ltrs beetwen both. Runoffs Xena PH6.4 Athena 6.3.
Very nice week have to say. I belive that calcium deficiency on Athena is no longer a case here and both girls developing very nicely. Both are still stretching, buds are gaining in size and both girls started exploding with trichomes,
Thank you all again for such amazing support ๐peace and love brothers and sisters โ๏ธ๐๐๐๐๐
Stay tuned for new week update ๐๐งโ๐พโ๏ธ๐

So I planted this girl 2 weeks after my first grow but instead I put this in the garden just to see if it would do any good outside.. itโs done so much better then I ever thought it would with very little care, not been fed that often and sometimes just left to rainfall. I even took it out of the flower bed and potted it during early flower and still she kept going just fine :) bonus plant

Excellent progress so far. Grower exclaimed his enthusiasm for the progress made in only after a week of nutrient program.

Start of week 9 and the girls are just about done. Think I over watered the last two weeks. For some reason I feel like they donโt smell as dank as they did a few weeks ago. Maybe Iโm just getting used to them my wife says it still reaks!! Gonna be chopping the girls down in a week days. The gas cream could of been chopped last week but I wanted the Saturn to finish

17 weeks now and I'll give one more week for my Dwarf to see how the trichomes will being. About the Northern Lights, I don't know if I'll wait for her to get the point that I'd like. I'm having problems drying my two Jacks because I don't have a proper space to do it so I had to improve. So, maybe I'll cut both together using the Dwarf as reference...cuz she's going big, maybe the biggest yield among them. As a first attempt to growing, I'm quite excited.

This entire week was just rain, rain, rain. I kept the plants under the lamp. I'm really not prepared for indoor growing. But, light is light and it will work for a short time, apparently.
