The only bottled nutrient I use is silica's 5ml per gal every other week. Other then that I use the EM-1 and ferments I make my self to water and spry the plant. I’m mainly relying on what’s already in the soil and what I’ll be top dressing the plants with as they grow and need more food.

Gelato #2 has gotten so big that I'm afraid of burning the tips. Gelato #1 is already developin' beautiful round dense buds covered with trichomes.

Week 3 Flower – Super Silver Haze (Zamnesia Seeds) Grower: Dog Doctor Strain: Super Silver Haze Breeder: Zamnesia Seeds Phenotypes: SSH #1 & SSH #2 Stage: Flower – Week 3 Pots/Medium: 11L fabric pots, custom super soil (Aptus amendments) Watering: Hand watering, irrigation by substrate moisture Tent: 8×8 shared room Control: TrolMaster Hydro-X + Tent-X, WCS substrate sensor Lighting (room): F.O.G. Black Series 600W + ThinkGrow ICL-300 (x2) + Lumatek Zeus Compact Pro 465W Climate this week: ~29.6 °C, 67% RH (VPD ≈ 1.37 kPa), CO₂ ~700 ppm ⸻ This Week at a Glance • Structure: Both phenos are thriving and still tracking like twins—compact plants with clean symmetry now at ~120 cm. Bud sites are stacking; white pistils are abundant. • Leaf morphology: Classic hybrid look—rounded blades, neither narrow “pure sativa” nor broad “pure indica.” • Roots: Pots are clearly “alive”—great colonization and visible vigor through the fabric. • Defoliation: Performed a light defol only to open the canopy and improve airflow/light to interior sites. No heavy stripping. • Media & feed: Continuing the same program as last week (Aptus + Plagron). No All-In-One Liquid for now—the super-soil and pellets are carrying base NPK exactly as intended. Fewer photos this week (busy!), but there’s a room video and a couple of room shots showing the general happiness of the canopy. ⸻ Feeding Program (unchanged from Week 2) • Aptus: Regulator, CalMag Boost, Top Booster • Plagron: Power Buds, Sugar Royal, Green Sensation • Why this mix now: We’ve pivoted from early growth stimulation to floral support, aromatics, and metabolic efficiency. The super-soil + pellets provide the backbone; the liquids fine-tune the bloom signal and energy management. (You noted solution pH ~6.3, low input EC because the medium is pre-charged, and healthy daily uptake at ~1.5–2.0 L per plant, irrigating around 19–20% substrate dryness, kept as operational context.) ⸻ Environment, Monitoring & Why It Matters • Temperature & RH: ~29.6 °C and 67% RH. That calculates to VPD ≈ 1.37 kPa (not “137”—decimal matters). • What this does: • VPD in the 1.2–1.5 kPa range drives active transpiration and nutrient flow—good for biomass and stacking. • With higher temps, plants demand steady water availability and reliable Ca/Mg delivery to avoid tip-burn or micro-deficiencies. • Risks if this persists: • In late flower, warm & humid microclimates can increase powdery mildew/Botrytis pressure inside dense colas. • Heat can push foxtailing, reduce volatile terpene retention, and increase overall plant stress. • Mitigations already in play: • Light defol to open the canopy (great call). • Strong, clean airflow in the 8×8 (dual 6″ exhausts with carbon filters + filtered intake). • TrolMaster WCS sensor guiding irrigation by moisture and watching substrate EC—keeps the rhizosphere stable. • AC unit arriving—expect a meaningful drop in day temps; aim to settle around mid-20s °C with RH mid-50s as flowers pack on. • Lighting layout: F.O.G. Black Series 600W + ThinkGrow ICL-300s + Lumatek Zeus 465W provide a broad, balanced spectrum across the room. PPFD varies by position (natural growth and fixture spread), which is fine—site-by-site variation keeps edges productive while the center stacks. As biomass increases, incremental dimming or fixture height tweaks can hold the canopy in that efficient PPFD window without overshooting. ⸻ Genetics Note (because she’s a queen) Super Silver Haze is old-school royalty—her name carries cups and history. Seeing these phenos remain compact, calm, and synchronized in early flower is a treat. It’s a reminder that legendary haze lines can deliver refined structure when the root zone, spectrum, and climate are in tune. Thank you to Zamnesia Seeds for the representation of this classic, so far, these two are everything we hoped for. ⸻ What to Watch Next • Stretch trajectory: At ~120 cm now, expect the last of the vertical push to taper soon. Netting/support only if needed—right now form is clean. • Microclimate hygiene: Keep leaves gently moving everywhere; defol only in small passes to avoid shocking resin production later. • Moisture-guided irrigation: Stay with the WCS moisture trigger to prevent both saturation pockets and drought spikes as flowers thicken. • AC commissioning: Once installed, re-check overnight RH (often creeps up in cooler dark cycles); a slight dehumid bump at lights-off is a big win for late-flower health. ⸻ Gratitude & Credits • Genetics: Zamnesia Seeds • Control & sensing: TrolMaster Hydro-X + Tent-X, WCS substrate sensor and more • Lighting: Future Of Grow Black Series 600W, ThinkGrow ICL-300 (x2), Lumatek Zeus Compact Pro 465W • Nutrition: Aptus Holland + Plagron • Room design: 8×8 with dual 6″ carbon-filtered exhausts and filtered intake From seed to now: steady hands, living soil, measured light, and a room that keeps getting smarter.

Week 10 - 1/3 -1/10 1/4 - update - not sure what to do next. my feeding schedule only has 10 weeks of feed so i might flush with water for last 2 weeks until it is ready to go? **i think the deficiencies are either Maganese or something im not sure .... i think i should add some cal mag to my feed but i didnt want to go "rambo" mode just yet with this being my first grow i wanted to stick to the gameplan. going forward i might cowboy up a little more because i didnt realize that the food chart was more of a guide and then depending on what the plant tells you - you adjust appropriately... but whatever live and learn . PPMS havent really gone over 500 during the whole grow either so i think i got some room to work with.... people said they use 3ML of CalMag the entire flower stage. flower ppm should be 1000 and veg between 600 and 800 .... ill try that moving forward

CannaFuel CBD+ sind unsere bisher höchsten CBD-Samen mit einem hohen CBD-Gehalt von 28 % und einem niedrigen THC-Gehalt von 0,5 %. Da diese Samen fast THC-frei sind, können sie in vielen Ländern legal angebaut werden, die den Anbau von Cannabis mit niedrigem THC-Gehalt zulassen. Außerdem taucht das Cannabinoid, über das CBG in aller Munde ist, in Original Sensible Seeds auf. Die Analyse zeigt, dass CannaFuel CBD-Samen einen CBG-Gehalt von 0,37 % produzieren, der im Allgemeinen nach dem Aushärtungsprozess ansteigt. CannaFuel CBD+ sind vollständig feminisierte Cannabissamen und haben eine Indica-Sativa-Linie, daher wachsen die Pflanzen zu einer mittleren Höhe heran, die sich wiederum für den einfachen Anbau im Innenbereich eignen, mit dem zusätzlichen Vorteil einer kurzen Blütezeit von nur 55 60 Tagen. Auch die Produktion lohnt sich mit Erträgen von über 550 m2. Diese therapeutischen Samen mit hohem CBD- und niedrigem THC-Gehalt können auch im Freien angebaut werden und entwickeln starke und robuste Pflanzen, die ihre Knospen gegen Ende des Monats September / Anfang Oktober ernten. CannaFuel CBD+ zaubert einen tief erdigen Duft mit der Dominanz des Myrcen-Terpens, das würzig-pfeffrige Caryophyllen und das nach Pinien duftende Pinen sind ebenfalls sehr präsent mit Zitrusnoten, die sich aus Limonen entwickeln. Dieses starke Terpenprofil liefert auch eine Reihe von therapeutischen Werten, einschließlich entzündungshemmender und stressabbauender Vorteile. CBG (Cannabigerol) kann sich nach der Ernte und nach dem Aushärtungsprozess weiterentwickeln, was diese Sorte zu einer idealen Sorte für Extraktionen und Öl macht. Vom Anfänger bis zum erfahrenen Züchter sind CannaFuel CBD+-Samen die perfekte Wahl für diejenigen, die ein medizinisches Interesse an der Heilkraft von medizinischem Marihuana haben, mit dem zusätzlichen Vorteil eines minimalen THC-Gehalts, diese Samen werden nicht die übliche psychoaktive Wirkung hervorrufen, die normalerweise mit Unkrautsamen verbunden ist und sein kann legal in Ländern angebaut, die Samen mit niedrigem THC-Gehalt zulassen. Cannabinoid-Analyse: 28 % CBD, 0,5 % THC (28 % CBDA; 0,5 % THC) – 0,37 CBG Alle schriftlichen und visuellen Materialien sind nur für Informations- und Bildungszwecke bestimmt. Die ursprüngliche CannaFuel CBD+-Sorte von Sensible Seeds besteht zu 40 % aus Indica und zu 60 % aus Sativa Um die Samen der CannaFuel CBD+-Sorte von Original Sensible Seeds richtig zu lagern, wird empfohlen, die Samen in einem kühlen, trockenen und dunklen, luftdichten Behälter aufzubewahren, der sowohl mit dem Namen der Sorte als auch mit dem Lagerdatum angemessen gekennzeichnet ist, um die Identifizierung und genetische Konservierung der Samen zu erleichtern. Wenn es legal ist, die CannaFuel CBD+-Sorte von Original Sensible Seeds an meinem Standort zu keimen, was ist die beste Technik? Es gibt viele Methoden, um CannaFuel CBD+-Sortensamen zu keimen, wenn die Gesetze in Ihrem Land die Keimung von Cannabissamen zulassen. Die Papierhandtuchmethode ist eine gängige Technik zum Keimen von CannaFuel CBD+-Samen. Eine weitere beliebte und bevorzugte Methode ist das Einpflanzen der Samen direkt in feuchtes Substrat. Damit beide Keimmethoden erfolgreich sind, ist es wichtig, dass die Samen feucht und warm bleiben, aber nicht austrocknen. Wenn Sie die Papiertuchmethode verwenden, vergraben Sie die Samen der CannaFuel CBD+-Sorte, sobald sie gekeimt haben, vorsichtig im Wachstumsmedium. Diese Woche ok ich mich entschieden, ein großes Zelt Mars Hydro 120•120 zu installieren, für eins und eine Lampe mit großer Reichweite FC E4800. Ich habe die Klimaanlage eingerichtet, jetzt liegt die Temperatur bei etwa 24, ich habe zwei Lüfter installiert, um den Secret Jardin Monkey Fan 20w zu blasen, ich wollte sie schon lange kaufen. Die Heizung funktioniert auch! Hoffe es wird bald wärmer 😅

7/18 so even though shes been flowering for only 5 weeks(starting6) shes looking closer to being done than I had expected. Shes been losing alot of yellow leaves and most of the pistils are orange now. I checked the trichomes as best as I could today and on the main/top cola, I saw some amber but very little. But the rest of the buds were mostly clear I believe. I still want her to keeo going another few weeks but we'll see as time and trichomes progress. I added some extra flowering nutes and a product thats got good stuff like kelp and molasses and crab meal and stuff besides NPK values to help the plants put on some extra weight hopefully. 7/19 just took pictures/videos and checked trichomes 7/22 checked trichomes. The very top nugs have some amber on them and the rest are mostly cloudy. Wish I wouldve been checking the trichomes sooner so I couldve started flushing sooner. I wish i wouldve stopped using open sesame sooner as well. Next time im gonna do some things different with these plants. Once the soils dry probably gonna chop

This week was particularly rough with the shock to the plants from overdosing on myco+ 3-0-3 Really instilled a sense of extra caution and at some level paranoia lol fortunately the plants have shown to be very resilient in their desire to Thrive and grow because a rain water flush worked like a dream

I wish I could've taken more picture this week and previous week but I just could'nt remember to do it. Feeling nervous, but wierdly excited. Most promising strains for big yields are Super Silver and Tangie. Girl Scout Cookies being an autoflower already started to flower, wish it would have taken more time on veg to get bigger but it is what it is. Now starting flower. 12/12 cycle. 9 weeks

19/05/2021 la mattina dopo aver lollipoppato ho trovato le teste delle apicali tutte a curvate verso giù credo sia dovuto allo stress..... oggi andrò a visionare se si sono riprese dal stress dubito proverò a risolvere l overfert alzando tutta la lampada in cima al box(poca luce=poco mangiare) per 4 giorni.... e cercherò di guardare un po le radici delle baby perchè ho il sospetto che l overfert si un conseguenza di troppa irrigazione d acqua.... se cosi non fosse credo che laverò il terreno tutte le mie bimbe sperando iniziano a schiarirsi un po dal quel verde scuro altrimenti niente fioritura.... restate connessi 21/05/2021 ho alzato la lampada a 90cm per farle riprendere dal forte stress lo tenuta cosi per 48 ore... andrò il 24 a vedere cosa e successo...
