End of week 9! Everything is progressing, buds are stacking good, leaves are still yellowish but the calmag deficiency and the rust spots stopped progressing, I'm starting to think that maybe the yellowing is natural fading? Don't have a clue at this point, I just want this first run to finish in the best way possible. She is starting to smell amazing, I really can't wait to chop her but I think she has at least 3 weeks more. Patience is the key! Day 66 08/05/2022 - Holy fucking shit, I came back home after 2 days that I was out and the smell has taken the whole house LMAO, never felt anything like it, smell of lemon and candy, it makes my mouth wetđŸ˜± Day 67 09/05/2022 - Took some pics with lights off and flash and defoliated a bit to improve air flow

Brand new amnesia punch Zamnesia and ripper seeds collaboration have made a never to forget strain! There was only 500 so I got me one and germinated a seed to add to my photo tent so I could be one of the first to test and try it! Started in a glass of water for 48hrs then onto paper towel for 24hrs then potted! I am running them in 12L of soil, I have also put Co2 bags into the tent too

White Runtz has been the biggest plant out of all the SOG plants this run. It has large leaves and a large body to go with All of the plants have really taken off. Usually I have a couple plants that are much smaller but all of these plants are getting huge. Seeing I got a new eluefah uap1 500 the other day and I have my 2 fastbuds plants under that now I have my spider farmer light free. So I popped up another 2x2 and moved 3 of the 10 plants into the 2x2 and left the 7 other in the 2x4.

EXPERIMENT: Still waiting on the teapot to boil the water properly, but the photos and video of the "still" attached to this diary shows proof of concept. The sludge coming out is from the copper tubing manufacturing process, it'll eventually stop. I need to get the real setup built and run a couple gallons through the tube. Plant B is coming along nicely! I have a feeling it's going to finish around week 6 rather than the full 8 week period advertised. So I've started the flushing process. I can always add nutrients if necessary. Flushed twice this week with 2.5 gal of pH-adjusted distilled water. Plant A doesn't seem to like the bud blaster. I think it'll finish around the 8 weeks advertised. I flushed all week same as plant B, though I will probably add more nutrients to A next week. It just seemed to be getting some nutrient burn so I wanted to back off.

- VEGETATIVA - ‱Prima settimana‱ Passati i 7 giorni di germinazione procediamo con il conteggio delle settimane di vegetativa. Le piante reagiscono bene, tenere sotto controllo con analisi visiva le foglie e il terreno, controllare ed essere precisi con il PH dell’acqua a 6.5 (solo dopo abbiamo scoperto l’importanza) inizialmente fino alla 4 settimana di vegetativa non l’abbiamo controllato e infatti piĂč avanti noterete delle piccole carenze, tutto molto risolvibile comunque. Mantenere un’irrigazione costante, solitamente ogni 3/4 giorni circa 2/300 ml. Ovviamente sta a voi capire quanta ne serve, sempre meglio aspettare un giorno in piĂč (foglie cadenti) piuttosto che irrigare troppo spesso (causerebbe problemi maggiori l’irrigazione eccessiva).

Strain: Chocolate Haze (Royal Queen Seeds) Medium: Coco bricks (Action budget bricks – hell yeah 💰) Light cycle: 12/12 from seed Grow Style: No training, no stress – just flow Grow Medium Prep: 500L of coco – never again in one go 😅 The Kickoff 🚀 This run started off wild and direct – no veg time, straight into 12/12 with Chocolate Haze. I wanted a quick turnaround and thought, hey, why wait? I germinated 14 seeds, hoping for at least 9 strong ladies. Ended up with 11 survivors – not bad! First few weeks were a bit chaotic: stretching due to low light (I tucked the seedlings under mature plants, which I do not recommend 😆), and the coco prep took way longer than expected. But hey, that's the game. Early Veg/Bloom — Lessons Learned pH: Started a bit high; some light green leaves at first EC: Too low at 1.3 — they weren't having it. Upped to 1.7 and then to 2.1 later Environment: New extractor dropped temps way down (25°C vs my usual 30°C). Thought it would help, but growth felt slower Coco quirks: They looked overwatered at times, but coco is tricky like that. Eventually, roots hit the bottom and they took off Around mid-March (3 weeks in), pistils showed up – officially the start of flower. I topped them once just before full bloom kicked in. Always a strange move, cutting healthy plants... but they bounced back beautifully. Nice and bushy now. Week 2–5 Flowering 🌾 These ladies are small but mighty. Not tall, but full of energy. The canopy is tight and even (except for one shorty), and they've been stretching like crazy — classic sativa move. Had to raise the lights twice in two days. I’ll probably do some defoliation soon to slow things down a bit. Environment is now dialed in: Temp: 30°C with lights on RH: Holding nicely in that humid sweet spot CO₂: Set to 500ppm (passive mostly, no full-on enrichment) Feeding is now solid, color has recovered beautifully, and the buds are starting to form nice stacks. I’ve kept it low-stress — no nets, no heavy training, just letting them do their thing. Observations & Setup Tweaks 🔧 Ventilation: Running the fan at just 30% now. Tent takes 18 seconds to vacuum seal, which tells me airflow is minimal – less CO₂ loss. CO₂ System: Minimal usage at 500 ppm. I’m not going all-out with gas bottles; it’s just there as a buffer. Structure: These Chocolate Haze plants don’t get tall, but they do fill out nicely. Perfect for a space where height is limited. Auto side note: One of the autos in the same tent is way taller, but less dense. Makes me appreciate the Chocolate Haze structure even more. Current Status (April 17) 📆 We’re deep into flower now — week 5, and it shows. Buds are swelling and resin production is kicking in. Nothing major to report (which is kind of the point of this grow — set and forget). Just a slight dry issue with one auto, which I adjusted on the Blumats. Besides that? Happy plants, happy grower. 🌞 Check the latest pics — they speak for themselves. Final Thoughts (So Far) 💭 This Chocolate Haze grow has been chill, efficient, and surprisingly hands-off. The direct 12/12 schedule really works when you're going for a fast cycle with minimal hassle. And even though I’m usually more into hybrids, this sativa-dominant lady is winning me over — the structure, the vigor, the smell
 mmm. Now we wait for the real magic — the last few weeks of flower. Trichomes incoming. đŸ«âœš Stay tuned for harvest updates — it’s gonna be sweet. Feel free to drop any questions or thoughts. Always happy to share the love for the plant. 💚 Peace

Hello, fin de semaine 10, floraison 4. Les plantes n’ont eu aucuns problĂšmes pour rĂ©cupĂ©rer de leurs dĂ©foliation de la semaine prĂ©cĂ©dente. Elles semblent en parfaite santĂ© et la croissance des buds commence Ă  se matĂ©rialiser de plus en plus,,, 😁 J’ai lĂ©gĂšrement ajustĂ© l’hydromĂ©trie vers les 45/50%. J’ai aussi fait un arrosage plus lĂ©ger en milieu de semaine Ă  l’eau sans engrais avec un simple pH ajustĂ© Ă  6.3/6.5 L’apparition de cristaux commence Ă  se voir. C’est beaucoup plus marquĂ© sur la gorilla CBD que sur la critical+ 2.0. VoilĂ ,, c’est tout pour cette semaine.. Happy grow...😎

Grow Report Woche 4: Technik, Topping & Tapferkeit Hallo zusammen đŸŒ±đŸ‘·â€â™‚ïž Diese Woche hatte es in sich: technische Erweiterungen, kleine RĂŒckschlĂ€ge – und trotzdem geht’s weiter voran. Die Black Cherries vom Super Sativa Seed Club zeigen sich robust und widerstandsfĂ€hig, genau wie mein Optimismus! Blumat-Erweiterung 💧 Ich habe mein BewĂ€sserungssystem aufgestockt und sechs zusĂ€tzliche kleine Blumat-Tropfer installiert, um auch die OberflĂ€che im Beet gleichmĂ€ĂŸig feucht zu halten. - Vier Tropfer wurden direkt in die bestehenden Tropfringe integriert – so erhalten die Pflanzen Wasser von beiden Seiten. - Die restlichen Tropfer ergĂ€nzen das Setup rund um die Hauptwurzelbereiche. Ich bin gespannt, wie sich dieses doppelte Tropfsystem auswirkt – bislang sieht alles stabil aus. Astbruch – schnell reagiert Beim Verlegen der Tropfer ist leider ein getoppter Hauptast abgebrochen. - Innerhalb einer Minute habe ich ihn mit einem 3mm Blumat-Schlauch fixiert. - Nach zwei Tagen zeigt er wieder normales Wachstum – das nenne ich Notfallpflege mit Erfolg! - Der GrĂ¶ĂŸenunterschied wird durch gezieltes LST ausgeglichen – so bleibt alles in Balance. LST gestartet 🌿 Diese Woche habe ich auch mit dem Low Stress Training begonnen: - Jede Pflanze bekam ihre Triebe positioniert, um das Wachstum gleichmĂ€ĂŸig und lichtoptimiert zu lenken. - Nur bei der Pflanze mit Astbruch habe ich vorsichtig agiert – dort wurden vorerst nur die unteren Triebe bearbeitet, damit sich die verletzte Stelle vollstĂ€ndig regenerieren kann. Kleines Chaos, große Zufriedenheit Es war eine anstrengende Woche, aber die Ergebnisse stimmen mich positiv: - Pflanzen sind vital, wachsen gut, und der Schaden wurde schnell behoben. - Der Übergang zur nĂ€chsten Wachstumsphase ist in vollem Gange – trotz kleiner Stolperer. đŸŽ„ Zum Abschluss: Zeitraffer bis Woche 4 Die Pflanzen sind jetzt so groß, dass die Kamera eine neue Position bekommen hat – höherer Blickwinkel, mehr Übersicht. 👉 Der neue Zeitraffer zeigt die Entwicklung bis heute – von zarten SĂ€mlingen zu kraftvollen Pflanzen. Ich hoffe, dass die nĂ€chsten Wochen etwas ruhiger verlaufen, damit ich mich voll auf die Pflege und Beobachtung konzentrieren kann – aber ich bleibe optimistisch und freue mich auf alles, was kommt! 🍒

Picture 1 - Day 8 - Seedling 1 got its nutrients the first time today. 1ml/L Biobizz Grow about 700ml. Picture 2 - Day 8 - Seedling 2.1 still stretching a bit too much, am waiting for the new light to arrive. Picture 3 - Finally got the new setup, the grow tent isnt perfect yet but itll do for the next few weeks (its just an old temporary closet) it leaks a lot of light and moisture but since I only have these 2 mini plants rn I dont think its gonna be a huge problem until flowering. Picture 4 - Day 9 - Seedling 1 looking good and Seedling 2.1 (3 Days old) will hopefully stop stretching now that I finally got the bigger light here. Watered 2.1 again today with just ph water. Picture 5 - Day 10 - Nothing special happening, the plants are looking good! Picture 6 - Day 11 - I now installed a fan in the grow area to better the ventilation. The fan is doing a great job at moving air around, but kinda messing up the moisture coming out of the humidifier... (With fan and humidifier on at same time = 40% with just humidifier running = 60-70%) Not sure how to fix that yet... Will water Seedling 1 again tomorrow. Picture 7 - Day 12 - Seedling 1 growing good but its leaves are still looking really weird, I think theyre going up on the edges because I put them under slight wind stress, but that issue is fixed now. Some parts of some of the leaves still look really odd to me, like they got cut off or something? I dont know Picture 8 - Day 12 - Seedling 2.1 is 6 days old now and growing good, theyre some tiny yellow dots on the leaves surface but its really slight so I dont know if its something bad. I watered both plants today, Seedling 1 with Bio Grow Nutrients and Seedling 2.1 with just Ph'd water. Video - Day 13 - Both seedlings still growing, but looking kinda sus.
