Week 8 has gone well and she is chugging along. She is still putting out new pistils with some turning orange. Calyx's are growing longer and buds are still soft. I'm thinking a min of 10 weeks flowering for her. I removed some leaves on inner canopy to bring some air and light deeper. She is so bushy its hard to even defoliate maybe next time i will remove some more lateral branches... afterremoving the leaves I must have come incontact with a pollen sack as where I defoliated all seemed to be polinated over night and are making seeds :( I will cut my losses and harvest while seeds are still small.

Day 8: Nothing New Notes: New lights were supposed to be here today (Monday) according to tracking, but of course, were not. So, we still got blurples for at least the next day. Both plants seem to be growing, slowly but surely! Temp and humidity are relatively under control. Based on the size of the plants, I'm thinking I might transplant into their final homes (5 gal Smart Pots) by the end of the week! Refilling the humidifier twice a day is kind of a pain. Was looking into a possible DIY solution to feed the tank from a large reservoir, so that might be coming in the future. Plants look good, soil looks kinda dry-ish, so I will be watering tomorrow. Day 9: Watering Notes: RIP my dreams of getting a new lights. Shipment is officially delayed with no ETA. Also, watered plants as they looked a little parched, and the soil was super dry. Day 10: Nothing new Notes: Lights have signature confirmation and I wasn't home 😢 Going to pick them up at the PO tomorrow and setting the damn thing up ASAP. I also mounted my exhaust fan to one of the 2x4s framing the room because it felt like CFM was lower than usual which I attribute to putting the exhaust fan all the way on the floor which added a couple bends to the ducting and lengthened it by a few feet. After mounting it (close to the exhaust port in the tent), it seemed to pick up a bit. Plants look ok. Growing very slowly. Soil still looks damp so we're good on watering! GSC definitely looks ready to transplant soon, possibly in the next day or two. NL is close behind it. Day 11: Watering Notes: I was waiting at the post office in the morning for them to open. I got home and hung the light while removing the old one. When I turned them on, HOLY SHIT ARE THEY BRIGHT. Staring at them is almost as bad as staring at the Sun -neither of which I recommend doing-. I set it up right before lights out so I didn't get to test too much. When I got home -after they have been running for 2 hours-, first thing I noticed was the temperature increase. Thermometer said it was 79f. Granted, this is running at full strength (I didn't get to adjust before I left for work). I adjusted it down to roughly 50% as most of this light is being wasted on these poor seedlings anyway. I also pointed the fan at the heat sink. We'll see how the combination of these two things affect the temperature. The GSC looks ready for transplant, with NL close behind it. I could probably transplant the GSC tonight, but I'd rather transplant both at the same time. I might transplant them Friday night after I get home, or Sunday. With that being said, I'm going to hold off on watering them until I put them in their new 5gal Smart Pots. edit: I actually did end up giving them a tiny bit of water. Day 12: Nothing new Notes: Will be transplanting on Sunday (Day 14). Plants are growing pretty steadily now. Both just about have their first full set of leaves! New lights are fucking amazing. I decided to return my filter / fan to upgrade to a better quality setup. I got a Vortex 6in S series for better longevity and also to quiet the grow area. Replaced the filter I got with a 6x16 Phresh carbon filter. Once they're both here, gonna set them up, and return the others. Day 13: Nothing new Notes: GSC is getting so big. Already up to two nodes. Same goes for the NL, but it's more Indica looking in that it's "bushy" and flat. Pretty much a sign of how the two will compare in size later on in their lives. Also, my pH pen sucks, and I needed a TDS pen, so I am going to return the shit one I got and get a BlueLab growers toolkit, which is just a pH pen and a TDS pen. Might seem like I'm going overboard, but I am trying to future-proof my setup for as long as possible. I like to get years if not decades of use out of things I purchase. The higher up-front costs are worth it to me to have a quality product that lasts. Day 14: Transplant Notes: Today is the big move. Bought some shelving / plastic containers at the hardware store for a easy to clean up drainage system. Also bought a big bag of perlite to mix and some random other tools. I mixed both 5gal Smart Pots with a 2:1 Fox Farms Ocean Forest / Perlite mix to help with drainage and aeration. I may have messed up a little and not filled the pot that will be housing the NL, but it's roughly about 3/4 full, and I may have also buried her a little bit deeper than I should have. Other than that, it was a pretty event-free move. Everything is looking good so far. Now that they're in their new homes, the countdown begins, 3 weeks, until I can start feeding them nutrients.

Struggled a bit with heat, had to put a fan over canopy. The hps has made a noticable difference in hardening up the buds. I rhink another 10 days to 14 days left. Update day 49: as recommended by @B4RNS I have reduced the last week of feeding to e.c 1 prior to a week of flushing! New video added with lots of heads!

2/2 We are about half way on the 2 biggest, 3 weeks on the SG, and about 6 weeks on the Blue cheese. Damn... You can see how much I lose on the bottom half, but like I said before. It will still be more than I can smoke. And I want to make sure it all gets enough light to ripen and allow plenty of airflow. The only issues in really having is the godberry seems to be yellow 8ng too soon, but I still think it's from the light stress early on. She also looks a bit like nute burn. Probably the fish emulsion I gave it 2 weeks ago when I misread the light stress. I always have at least one plant that goes yellow too soon. Living soil. More to come...

May 5, 2024 Day 15 This week we will be focusing on getting the plants into their 3 gallon containers. That should be happening this afternoon when I'm up for it, or tomorrow. However, some roots are starting to show on the sides and the plants are starting to get a bit big for the Germination Center. There's still a this one small plant. It seems to just be a smaller plant. I don't know if I'm going to keep it. Just a waste of soil I think. Speaking of Sour Diesel, all four plants are really healthy. The three normal sized ones are all the same size. Same everything. I can't wait to see how they come out. Still nothing to do with individual plants. They are still too young. I increased the light power to 100%. They all seem to be loving the light, so why not treat them. Plus they will only be in that light for another few hours to a day. Still no idea what the DLI is. I don't have a PAR map to to refer to. So it's mostly guess work. So I'm guessing by the look of the plants, they don't mind at all. The environment is still spot on. The temp is hovering around 77° and the humidity is still at 84%. I'm assuming the night temp is around 75°, but the light is on and the heat mat is going. When I plant them, I'm going to have to work the heat and humidity in the 2x2. Happily, this size tent is a pain to keep dry, and I don't need dry, I need humid at least for the next 2 weeks. Then they should be going in the 3x3 with the better light and more space. Perfect. Update: it's mid afternoon and all 4 babies have been planted in their final 3 gallon containers. Watered in and easy to go. I'm using a 100 watt light for now while I wait for the other plants to finish. Still deciding if I want to keep the small one or not. Germination Center Environment: Temp: 78.3° RH: 85.6% VPD: unknown May 6, 2024 So I measured all 4 plants today. 3 of the 4 are 4" flat with the final one being at 3". I already have her in the final container, but if she doesn't catch up soon, I may put her in the 2x2 tent for a solo grow so she doesn't get cannibalized. I have to wait though. I have plants that are days from harvest, so I'll have to wait a couple of weeks to get her in there. When that time comes, I'll separate her daily entries so everyone knows what's actually going on. I won't be basing the weekly stats on her though. She will be separate. I finally labelled each plant. A,B,C and D. You guessed it, D is the small one. I'll be doing daily entries for each once I start seeing more veg. Watering should be the same, lighting and environment will also be the same for A,B,C and different for D. So just a note for each plant daily. The light has been turned on in the 2x2 where these babies love for now. It's a 100 w Mars Hydro TS600. I don't really like using it, it's only 100 w. Which will be fine for the time being, but I prefer my better 3x3 240 watt AC Infinity light. DLI readings for this set up is just under 20 mol/m²/d. Should be good right there for the time spent in here. The environment is stable at 78% humidity and a temperature of 76°. I'll keep it that way for the rest of this week and see how things go next week. I'll most likely bring the humidity down to 60%. But I'd like to keep the temp up. I've read that Sour Diesel likes heat. Apparently it likes humid and dry climates. Which makes absolutely no sense to me, but whatever. I'll keep it at 60% in veg and then drop it 5% at a time until late flower and 40% will be the where it ends. Grow System Environment: Temp: 76° RH: 78% VPD: unknown May 7, 2024 I finally added a hydrometer that will read properly and works. All 4 ladies look great. I'm still concerned about the small one. I'm willing to bet, I'll end up placing it in the 2x2 for the solo grow I was talking about before. A,B,C all look the same. They are about 5" tall now and have 3 nodes. D on the other hand is just behind. Only 2 nodes and generally smaller. The light was a bit out of whack. It wasn't level and was pulling super hard to the back of the tent. I fixed that though. I think the DLI is around 20 mol/m²/d. It should be good for this stage. I'll definitely have to drop the light down t A bit when they get a little older. I'd like to see 25 mol/m²/d before going in the main tent. The environment is alright. The temp was a bit low this morning. The humidity was also at 61%. Definitely too low for these ladies. It should be up to 70% in a couple hours. The temp already bumped up to 78°. Now I just need to get a humidifier in there. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.8° RH: 65.6% VPD: 1.01 kPa May 8, 2024 Watering day! So for the first full watering I gave everyone a half gallon of water PHed to 6.0 from the top. I use a stick, so it takes a good bit of time to do it, but I don't need to wait for the soil to absorb. It does so gradually as the water is added gradually. There seems to be 2 different phenomes. A and D are one with B and C being the other. A and D have fatter leaves, but they are a bit droopy. Not in a stressed out way. Maybe they needed a bit of water. Not sure, but they look the same besides the height difference. Speaking of D, I have officially decided to keep her and finish her in a solo 2x2 grow. I just need to wait a few weeks while the other 4 plants are harvested and dried up. In the mean time, I'll keep her in the 3x3 when it gets moved there. Maybe I'll keep her there if she can keep up with the rest. I'm not sure. It's honestly too early to tell. A, B and C are still all the same height with A being a slightly different structure. I'll check back later to see how they take to the watering. I don't think a half gallon of water in a 3.4 gallon container will be any problem. It will moisten the whole container to probably about 45% saturation. When the bottom feeding starts in a few weeks, the saturation should go up to 55%. And it should hang out here until the last week or so of the grow. It may spike a bit because the plants doesn't need that much water anymore, but we will cross that bridge when we get there. The light seems to be perfectly fine for these ladies. In a few days, I'll pull a DLI reading and see where it needs to be. I still feel like these babies are still establishing themselves. Anyway, for another day. The environment was really good for a while. Now that I have them out of the Germination Center, I needed to figure out the humidity. The solution is a small humidifier. Works perfectly. We have a temp of 77° and the humidity is around 79%. Perfect for this stage. It could stand to be a bit warmer, but this is fine. Plus it should get a bit warmer today after the watering. Science and all that. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.5° RH: 71.5% VPD: 0.84 kPa Note: these numbers are daily averages including lights out. It gives a better idea of what both temps look like. For example. 74.5° is less than 77°, so the night temp much drop below 74° for a 6 hour average to drop the daily so much. But there's a lot to learn once you get the jist of it. May 9, 2024 Not a bad day. These ladies, even D, are looking great. Good leaf structure, fantastic color. Just all around some nice plants. They seem to really like the DLI. I'll be taking that reading tomorrow. The plants haven't grown enough to record it more than once a week. So lighting stays the same. The environment is fantastic. Right within range of not nearly perfect. The temp is around 76° and the Humidity is around 73%. It doesn't fluctuate much, but it still does. Naturally, I expect fluctuations, so I'm not worried about it. As I said, right within range. On the other hand, last night's temp dropped entirely way too low for this stage. I'll have to figure out a happy medium for my room heat and night time temps. Also, you can clearly see the drop in the leverage temp from yesterday. It's super low. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.1° RH: 77.5% VPD: 0.66 kPa May 10, 2024 Not much going on today. No watering needed. The light looks perfectly fine. Also, the plants are each started to grow at their own pace and size. While A,B and C are the same height, B is slightly ahead of the others. Strong stem and starting to grow side branches and another node. D looks like she may catch up after all. She's still not as big as the others, but the slight difference looks like it will either work itself out in veg, or I will just let her get bigger during the stretch with less training. I don't think I'm going to use a SCroG net this run. I plan on ordering silica to improve stem strength. I think a SCroG net works better in larger setups when you have multiple plants. My tent is just too small to work 4 plants in a SCroG setup. I can only access the front of the tent and the back and sides get neglected. So training and silica it is. As I said above, no watering needed today. However, I did reactivate the wick system for Tropicana Cookies today. She was drying out fairly quickly, so hopefully with the dryer container, it takes more time for the bottom to saturate. The lighting is staying the same. I'll check it at the beginning of next week. Although, with a tent this size and lack of space for the light, I'd just assume let the plants grow into it. Maybe I'll drop it to 24" when I see 4 nodes on all plants. The environment looks great! Cooler at night and nice and warm during lights on. The day temp is about 77° with a humidity of 66%. The night temp is 67° with a humidity of 78%. The humidity is a bit high, but I don't have an automated exhaust system like I do in the 3x3. I may turn the the exhaust on before I go to bed, but then the morning time will be dry before I wake up. Only for 2 hours, but still. The fluctuation is definitely not welcome. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.1° RH: 73.6% VPD: 0.78 kPa The VPD is a bit low. But that's due to the night time environment which I'll be adjusting tonight. May 11, 2024 Last day of the week for these 4. They have grown significantly over this week. Excellent leaf growth, beautiful green. All 4 plants look fantastic. Perfect structures. I can't ask for better. D is still a bit smaller, but is catching up. I don't expect her to stay small forever. I believe she will grow the same size at the end of the flowering stretch. B seems to be the largest, or most advanced, of the bunch. She is definitely ahead by a node, and a bit taller than the rest. However, her stem is a bit shorter than the rest. A and C both have longer stems, but lacking the robust growth of B. A and C are about the same. Nearly identical. These could be the same phenotype. With B and D being separate phenotypes. This coming week, I'll start reporting on the plants individually. It's a bit more work, but much more organized and easier to read. The light is definitely where it needs to be. I'll check DLI tomorrow. The environment is still near perfect. However, it was a bit low this morning. Apparently I didn't set the heat high enough. It's fixed now. The temp is around 77° and the humidity at 70%. No watering today. The pots are still fairly heavy. I think I'll water again tomorrow or test to see how moist the soil is. If I water tomorrow, I think it will only be a quarter gallon. Everything looks good and that's all there is to report today. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.6° RH: 72.3% VPD: 0.79 kPa

What an amazing week! The smells coming from these ladies have been incredible! Our Hindu Kush from Sensi Seeds needed some extra defoliation to ensure she receives essential air to avoid wpm (white powdery mildew) she is starting to show her well known purple hues ever so slightly. Our Jedi Code #5 Reeks of Citrues notes, shes beautiful, as is all our ladies here, our Hindu Kush giving a licorice scent, our Garlic Cookies smelling Gassy as ever as is our Banana Kosher Kush from Mutant X Genetix, his Strawberry Amnesia Haze is also giving petrol aromas all throughout. Our Wet Og seems to not have given her scent yet...we await the outcome.

Last Topping. Now I created 24 tops. No side shoots were so stunted that they needed to be removed. All are growing compactly and uniformly.. After this week I switch to flowering. I once tried growing the same variety for five weeks in a 0.4 litre pot and a 25 litre pot. It's amazing how compact the plant grows in the small pot.
