Last week I thought that the 50cm distance between the light and the top of the canopy was ok. But this week, I get some signs of light burns on every plants and I decided to put it back to 60cm. This distance seems to work best for this grow.
I think the Cashew Kush shows some slight signs of nitrogen deficiency so I added a bit of BioGrow (1ml/l) and hope it will help.
For more info about the "Soil people", see week 9.
As part of the "Tent-X Ultimate Grow Challenge" contest, I received a free Tent-X controller, a MBS-TH Humidity/temperature/light sensor and a LMA-14 light control adapter. I requested them on sunday and get them on thursday so it was super fast, thank you @TrolMaster_Europe ! 👌
-------------------------------
Controller + MBS-TH review
-------------------------------
The Tent-X controller combined with the MBS-TH sensor provides information about temperature and humidity. The light detector of this sensor is used to trigger the day/night mode of the Tent-X controller but doesn't measure light intensity (you need another sensor for that).
I've tried to connect the controller to the phone app and it seemed to work. I will not use this function because it requires to connect the controller to the internet with an Ethernet cable and I don't have an Ethernet plug in my grow room. I set-up a rudimentary fixation system to hang the controller and the sensor since I'm not growing in a tent, but it works haha. Now, I can make my measurement in the center of the canopy instead of making them just above the ground.
----------------------------------------
LMA-14 light control adapter review
----------------------------------------
This adapter allows you to control your light via a RJ45 cable. I'm not using it because my light and my fan are synchronized and my fan cannot be controled by a RJ45 cable. I don't want to have a timer for the fan and a controller for the light. I just use the timer for both. However, Trolmaster sells some plug sockets that can be controled by RJ45 cable so you can control everything with your Tent-X controller.

Divine jelly has some really pretty leaves and some super thick stems. Some of the smaller branch’s I cut off because the main 4 were so much taller and thicker. Ok structure
But I’m looking for strains that stack a lot better

Surprise, Surprise. Did another week and most of them should be ready by now.
Gush Mints still has a lot of white hairs and could go for another week or two but I have limited space and need to move the other plants into this tent soon.
So this will be the last update before they get chopped in 2-3 Days :) BroScience but they will get roughly 24-48 Hours of darkness
Grounded Genetics - Zilk Road: 95% Milky, 5% Amber
SQ1 - GRCxBBC #1: 95% Milky, 5% Amber
GasStation - Gush Mints x Grape Cream Cake: 90% Milky, 5% Clear, 5% Amber

Plant is fine, except one stormy night the weather is just fine.
Heard that is gonna be a nice September, hope they are right. I plan to cut the tree on the second/third week of September.
Yes some yellowing leaves, I still think is the aging process and a little bit of K deficiency, that should have decreased, and looks like it has, new growth are just fine and there is no worsening.
Still watering with:
Big bud, 2 ml x L
CalMag 2 ml x L
Bio Bloom 3 ml x L
silica, one tablespoon
neem oil
propolis
aloe

Lit Marker is turning out to be a real powerhouse! It's one of my biggest plants so far, and it looks just like my Black Valentine. They must be from the same company or family, because those similarities are uncanny.
Last week was awesome! I finally got around to giving all my plants a little upgrade – I repotted them into some bigger homes. They're all looking so happy and healthy now, it's crazy. I can't wait to see how much they grow this year!

Hey guys.
For this week i upload some videos 1 video per plant.
I am not giving any more the bio nova autoflower supermix, i m thinking on let them going only with water until the end, but lets see.
Plant 5 is close to harvest i think on the end of this week.
Plant 1 and 4 are doing good on flowering.
Plant 2 is slowly flowering
Plant 3 is still in middle of the transition to flowering, is going very slow. I think she probably is blocked because of the size of the pot and light .
When i harvest plant 5 the others will have more space, and i can bend some branches to increase the bud quality.
The big question is, when harvest? its the first time im doing this and i am afraid of doing that wrong.
Hope the videos can help someone to help me :D
I have also made a video of plant 5 on a more close look, not to much quality but for now its what i can get , sorry
28/05 day 69
small trichome update of plant 3,4 and 5. Plant 1 and 2 still on pre flowering
analysing the trichomes, i would say,
Plant 3 and 4 need almost 2 more weeks
Plant 5 - probably only 1 week more, so up to almost week 12
plant 1 and 2 - will take much time as fotoperiodic LOL

Entered diary of the month for the first time here on GD. It’s been a good run thanks to Ethos Genetics and Front Row AG Nutrients.
Grow diaries has been kinds shitty lately. I’ve tried my best to upload as many good photos as possible.
I know I grow a little differently than most here on grow diaries. Push the plants as hard as you can, lots of heat/humidity/co2 and high EC. My motto, if you’re gonna grow, harvest as much as you can with the space you have.
Overall this was one of my best runs in a while. Deep orange and cream/cake smells and vigorous growth made this a great strain.

SETUP:
-MIGRO 100
-Grow space 60X60X160 (Mammoth PRO 60).
-Grow medium is Gold Label Special Mix Gold edition Premium, Airpot (10l).
_____________________________
18th August - 1 x Stress Killer Automatic CBD germinating. Yesterday a package arrived from Royal Queen Seeds!
3 Royal Gorilla Auto, 3 Stress Killer Automatic CBD.
This is my second grow. Very happy that @James from Royal Queen Seeds hooked me up with this, plus loads of goodies! thanks again!✌️🏻️
_____________________________
20th August - Planted in soil (11AM) using the final pot (10L). Watered with 15ml water around where I planted her.
_____________________________
24th August - Day 1 - Seedling above ground after 4 days in soil. I also planted another seed in a red beer cup just to see if there were any significant differences in growth. That one came up above ground already after 2 days. I'm only going to keep one of them but for now you'll see pictures of both for a little bit longer until I decide which one to keep. Of course a transplantation will be needed if I go with the one in the beer cup. I was hoping that transplantation wouldn't be needed this time.
_____________________________
25th August - Day 2 (Day 4 Beer Cup) - Still hasn't got the shell off. Only beer cup going strong so far. Fed both with 30ml tap💧 I also noticed something weird. It looks like "beer cup" has developed trichomes already which I know isn't the case.
_____________________________
27th August - Day 4 (Day 6 Beer Cup) - The shell came off yesterday. Fed both with 50ml tap💧
_____________________________
28th August - Day 5 (Day 7 Beer Cup) - Fed both with 45-60ml tap💧

Another good week here in the tent. Getting water daily. Defoliated as needed every other day. The girls are looking great and smelling great. Lots of frost coming off these girls.
Started the UVB at 30 minutes and have moved up to an hour. The tests went right to two hours but I wanted to ramp it up. Will go up thirty minutes tomorrow and continue that every few days to ramp up usage.
The trichomes are coming along but not milky

Hey all welcome back to sort of week 12 or week 4 of flower!
I have just got home and don’t no what to say...... gold leaf 1 has nanas that seam to have popped and could have wrecked the whole grow 😭
The girls are def hungry as you can see there is some yellowing of the leaves so they will be getting a good feed today and again in 3 days to keep them in the zone. They are stacking up and getting a little fatness to there buds. Frost levels are just starting to kick in and the tent is pungent!!
Well the next few days will be spent watching for signs of any of the other plants turning male on us. Fair to say I’m a little gutted about now as I’m about to chop up a gold leaf that will produce over 4oz of dry buds fingers crossed this diary ain’t over

They have seen low temp's of 0.0 and high temps of 36°c but seem to be doing fine so far, 2 weeks growth outdoors is so different to two weeks growth under a light!!

Things seem to be on track. Humidity continues to be my biggest challenge - hoping to to make it to the finish line without any incidents of mould. 🙏 Started cutting back on the nutrients. I must say I'm happy she's responded so positively to everything I've thrown at her as I've been a bit more aggressive with the fertilizers than with the original plan I had set out to follow. Hoping to see buds fattening up more over the next two weeks. 🌲
