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 ! ๐Ÿ‘Œ ------------------------------- 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.

We are officially in full bloom. The have been enjoying 6-7 hours of sun light per day for about 4 days now, then brought back in under the cobs. The girls are all exploding with growth and stacking what I expect to be huge buds.

Great harvest, I was impressed with the quality of this strain. After the drying and curing process, I'll give my feedback! ๐Ÿ’ช

The temperatures, humidity, height, and watering volume(if measured) in grow conditions are all averaged for the week. The pH is soil pH. Any watering done by me is well water which is 7.6 pH and 50ยฐ F. Any listed nutrients are ml/gallon of soil to be spread evenly on top of the soil. Day 1 we had a high temperature of 95ยฐF with clear sunny skies. It was super hot today. I watered each pot 4-5 gallons twice. Day 2 we had a high temperature of 81ยฐF with partly cloudy skies. The girls are still thirsty. I watered 4-5 gallons per pot once. These girls roots have tapped through these pots and into the soil. Unless it's just super hot watering once is enough. Day 2 we had a high temperature of 95ยฐF. It felt like 97ยฐF. We had super clear sunny skies. The girls are loving the sunshine and slightly less humidity. I watered twice @4-5 gallons per pot. Day 3 we had a high temperature of 90ยฐF with super clear sunny skies. The temperature was more comfortable at 90ยฐ today because we had less humidity. I watered 4-5 gallons per pot from the well. Day 4 we had a high temperature of 83ยฐ with clear sunny skies. I watered 4-5 gallons once per pot. Day 5 we had a high temperature of 83ยฐ with clear sunny skies. I watered 4-5 gallons once per pot. Day 6 we had a high temperature of 79ยฐF with clear sunny skies. I watered once 4-5 gallons of well water per pot. The girls are thirsty but the heat isn't sucking the water out of the pots. The girls are in full vegative phase 2 and continue to gain height. Day 7 we had a high temperature of 75ยฐF with mostly sunny skies. I watered 4-5 gallons per pot once. This week was a great success. The girls really stretched. The middle height plant is at 102 inches. The tallest plant looks about 10"-12" taller. The weather was very pleasant. We had a few hot days but mostly cool fall type weather. The defoliation and treatment of powdery mildew with Growers Ally fungicide ended that problem. These plants do have a high level of resistance but not immunity. I'll continue to treat once a week. Most growers don't talk about their fungal pathogens or treatment of them. Outdoors, if your plants aren't immune (many fastbuds I've grown from seed have been) then this is an issue you'll deal with if you have cool humid nights. There are many treatments and preventatives and some are scarey. My grows are all organic and I carefully chose Growers Ally fungicide as I smoke these plants and don't want anything scarey in(systemic) or on them. Thabks for visiting my diary ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š

Drunken bitch Slap is growing good under the Hortibloom Solux 350. I pruned her roots and also did some lst on her. I accidentally broke a branch while lst ing her. I propped it back in place, and hopefully it heals if not I will ben the other two closer that way to close the gap. I have added nothing, but water since start. My nutrition mix was a bit strong in the start up. Everything has been good with this plant so far. Thank you Aeque Genetics, and Hortibloom. ๐Ÿคœ๐Ÿป๐Ÿค›๐Ÿป๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ Thank you grow diaries community for the ๐Ÿ‘‡likes๐Ÿ‘‡, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel๐Ÿ‘‡. โ„๏ธ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿป Happy Growing ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

Saskatoon Berry has been a very nice surprise. Two of the 3 plants look to be very productive and the smells are completely different. Over all very pleased so far.

Cherry A causing me all sorts of issues. She's falling on top of Cherry B. And in turn, Cherry B is hitting into my other plants (Grandpa Stash). Also noticed what looks like pollen sacs on day 78.

I almost despaired of getting my seeds to germinate after I moved house. Unfortunately, I seem to have stored them incorrectly during the move, so almost all of my auto seeds refused to germinate. But this single Mimosa Cake Auto from Fastbuds did manage it in only 2 days, and I'm very happy to be able to grow three plants at once after all. What a struggle! Because I was given a pretty olla (a clay pot that you bury in the ground), I'm going to try it out this time. Fertiliser cannot be added this way, but it should prevent the soil from drying out. In this grow, I used my usual nutrients from Greenbuzz-Nutrients, which I received as a sponsorship over a year ago. Time to use them up! As a substrate, I used the peat-free Lightmix from T.A. again. It is cheaper than alternatives with peat and better for the environment, so I recommend everyone to give it a try.

I introduced them to the nutrients on day 15 and as you can see by day 17 all four plants seem to be taking well to them.

What to say about this week? For starters LST was started this week. Initially I used garden ties but soon after replaced them with 6โ€ garden staples . 2 of the 6 girls began throwing pistals resulting from the LST starting around day 15 YIKES ๐Ÿ˜ฌ. The Zkittlez & the Runtz both from (Expert Seeds ) began giving the 5x5 its first smells . The LST so far has been a pleasure no ooosy daisies so far & the girls are showing what they are made of . The secondary shoots have great potential to form a nice round bush that I can train out into an even-as-possible canopy . Today is day 21 & day 20 for this bunch . They are only using Gaia Green dry amendments for feedings but I decided to take some advice given to another grower & supplement my girls with some compost tea . NO I DONT THINK THEY NEED ANYTHING ADDITIONALLY IM REALLY HAPPY SO FAR WITH MY NUTES bbbbuuuuuttttttt in the short chance that my ladies may take a liking to an occasional tea & reward my pampering with large , long , frosty, stacked colaโ€™s . . Thennnn Iโ€™m supplementing , I consider this all โ€œ4-playโ€ for my ladies Ik a giver ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ˜ญ My only concerns are racing against this clock to get as much size & solid structure before flowering sets in Iโ€™ve really got my heart set on a certain outcome & Iโ€™m one for a good challenge. Finally , atleast as much as I can remember, I increased the dimmer knob on the light from 65% to about 78%. I wonโ€™t increase the watts any higher until bloom sets in fully & at that point Iโ€™ll be turning it to 100% raising it a maybe 6 inches & watching patiently for my girls to start praying ๐Ÿ™ to it . Week 3 in the books !

"Chugging" along this week. Weather is hot, girls are loving the all time drip system. Forgot that my nutes and hot sun dont mix well and created a bad case of algae. Will monitor more often and maybe increase the drip flow
