Nurturing My Cannabis Plants: Balancing Light and Protection In the first half of the day, I place my seedlings on a south-facing windowsill to ensure they catch some light. During the evening hours, they travel back to my balcony. This routine helps them get the light they need while staying safe from pests. Protecting My Plants: A Grower's Dilemma I'm hesitant to leave them outside permanently because, unfortunately, all my other vegetables have been eaten by snails. I certainly don't want the same fate for my precious cannabis plants. For now, they’re enjoying a mix of south windowsill and balcony life, which seems to be working well. First Watering: Preparing for Growth Once the coco mix dries out, they will receive their first feeding. Terra Aquatica Tripart is my nutrient trio of choice. I'll start with a half-dose, as recommended by the feeding chart, to ensure they don’t get nutrient burn. First Feeding: A New Stage My ladies seemed to enjoy their sleepover in the greenhouse. Now it's time for their first feeding. I added Cal-Mag to achieve an EC of 0.5 mS/cm to start with. I gave them a half-dose of nutrients as described in the chart and watered with enough runoff.

The buds are very tight, but they didn't grow large colas so that means wasted time trimming cannabis, which I am not a huge fan of. I will not be growing this strain again, as I believe there are far better breeders and strains out there. I will continue to seek out the best breeders and strains until I am satisfied. I believe this Auto will yield in the 16-22 Ounce range dry, so I am not super disappointed, but I know I can do much better than this. After 6 days of drying, it took me around 7 hours to trim this auto, and she ended up yielding 16.72 Ounces. So she was definitely on the lower end of the spectrum from what I estimated on chop day, but still in the range. The buds are very tight, and smell like like cheese. I am only running one mature auto at a time now, so next up will be the Acid Dough from Ripper Seeds. I hope everyone has a great rest of your weekend, stay safe and Blaze On!!

Both girl's seem pretty happy. I've slowly increased the ppm back up 720. Also installed screen and a mild defoliation.

Week 1 27/01/2025 TF and MS Feed HydroSol: Increased to 8ml/5L 28/01/2025 TF and MS Light Increased: 313watts DLi: 35 Rapid Growth has started again. Feed Increased: HydroSol 10ml/5L HP 12%: 1ml/5L Uploaded today's pictures and yesterday's for comparison on how HydroSol is doing? I topped MS. Hopefully by doing this now TF will catch up but that's not why I topped her. She's known for being bushy; so will be good to bring her up to her second level before branching. Giving the rate she is growing; we haven't to worry about stunting Growth. H202 is also know to to cause mutations at high levels. I tried to start this diary with HP 12% from seed and it worked until micro-organisms in the air and water; what distillation has missed the "vocs" the cardon didn't catch. Caused them to later on because of free radicals and this is why high levels of HP can cause mutations and cancer when it steals atoms by ripping them apart. "Call the bomb swaddles" when mixed correctly or 'incorrectly 💣 lol 28th Today Little VT of the 5L jerry can starter pots (DiY) I think this process is allowing for optimization of Air/feed pks. I'm at least 2-3weeks ahead from a normal grow because of this style growing. I know, I know, I lost 3weeks from the first failed attempts. But it's okay 👍 I'm okay with that. Now I know and it's logged in the dairy for future reference I can quickly glance over before I start another one. Like hey 👋 "Time is valuable, read ya diaries" honestly, I don't have dementia i have human forgetfulness/error. Its still in the experimentental phase. Took tf out the propagator 31/01/2024 Nothing much to see I've did everything for TF and still looking droopy. Exactly the same as MS. I think she'll grow out of it! 01/02/2025 I know, I know what ya thinking, it looks like spider mites on MS only leaf but honestly I think its of the h202. I deffolled her only leaf. Sprayed it with h202 and no reactions happen. No mites. The Future TF is looking much more lively. Oh well. No speed-run this time round! I shouldn't of took 4wks off from growing. Rhythmic nature of thing and getting in the swing off it. It's easy to do but I am always in two minds with everything I do. I can't help but cause "Self sabotage' every time I get to ahead of myself, by running my mouth 💯 blah blah blah; always beside myself. Aye' they say "God is next to Cleanliness" if that's true it'll be impossible for me to be beside myself haha 😄 Its all fun and games 🎮 🙃 01/02/2025 Midday Light Increased: 560watts (max) for this power supply. I disconnected the 1200watts one for each light is 600watts. It's currently half-power with 600watts max for two lights at 300watts each. Better than having mishaps with the full power supply 1200 being turned up accidently say in a not ventilated enough little tent. I'd rather pass on that anxiety 🙃 Plants: Under jerry cans with dli at 20. This should by dinfintion let them gather themselves for 3days; while the sun is blazing outside the can. Even though I could lower the light. I think the high light intensity outside the cans the plants know. Midday VT MS looks likes shes a clone 😳 👀 but she ain't! One day I will get these protocols right. But atm ; atlas, it's all in jest n fun! MS defiantly looks like a clone but she's not; i have taken pictures since she hatched everyday 03/02/2025 Midday Freaky Pablo and The future 2 germinated Sprayed with weak solution of Hydroclonic Acid + h202 very mild. Now the fun begins!

Quand on contrôle un peut mieux le coco on arrive a tout que des résultats selon moi car pour ma première fois je trouve qu'il y as vraiment une grosse différence sur le développement en végétation vs terre . Agréablement surpris . Je suis présentement a 770 ppm avec un run off de 25-30% au alentour de 235 ppm et ca roule très bien . Ne vous gêner pas pour des conseille ses ma première pousse en coco. Je passe as 1100 ppm demain j'espère tout va bien se passé souhaitez moi bonne chance .

Hi everyone, we upgraded the lighting, I mounted the Lumatek Attis 300w led, we'll see if it amazes me. The plants seem to like the new light and grow well and healthy, now we wait for the flowers to grow big and beautiful. Patience is the key.🌱🌲

Heeey! 👋 It's week two and everything went quite well I believe! The girls are growing and they look healthy! 💪 During the first days this week and while I was checking them I started to think how I could improve (and fix) what I did in my previous grow, specifically the veg. phase. I wasn't the brightest person in my previous grow because I left the lights at their maximum power during this phase to increase the overall heat of the tent (it was a winter where I live) and while that idea made total sense to me at that time later I found out that was a not the best idea at all 😰. By doing what I did it meant my plants were receiving way more energy they could handle and that meant the plants didn't grow as much as they could 😱😭 So, how could I improve that this time? The best way was to get a PAR meter so I could measure how much light my babies are receiving but those are expensive so the best option after was using the lux meter (or rather the RGB brightness sensor) that's available in my phone (most phones come with one) and by doing that I get a rough idea how much food my babies were receiving (in lux tho, not the best method but it helps to get an idea) 👌 The first days Pistachio and Matcha were getting about 8000 lux and as the week progressed I ended near 18000. Some websites said that amount was acceptable for young plants (they do not talk about the quality of the light tho). For the next week I plan to reach 24000 lux and stay around that 😊 I also think this week I'll move the girls to a slightly bigger pot and with each transplant I'll keep using mycorhizes (Mico Root are mycorhizes) to help the root development. Anyway, that's all for now. Thanks for reading and I hope you'll all enjoy the photos and timelapses I took (the 2nd one looks cool!) Cheers! 😃

Hey everyone :-). This week they have grown super, but unfortunately they are getting lighter. 3 days ago I added another 1 g per liter of GHSC Powder Feeding Bio Grow substrate, as they still remain a bit in the veggie. Hopefully it doesn't take too long to release the nutrients. Whatever the reason, that still not all trips are elemened 🤬. I've only seen some before, and treated directly with neem oil so that it finally has a rest ☺️. I wish you lots of fun with the update, stay healthy and let it grow 🍀 You can buy this Strain at : https://sweetseeds.es/de/cream-caramel/ Type: Cream Caramel ☝️🏼 Genetics: Blue Black x Maple Leaf Indica x White Rhino 👍 Vega lamp: 2 x Todogrow Led Quantum Board 100 W 💡 Bloom Lamp : 2 x Todogrow Led Cxb 3590 COB 3500 K 205W 💡💡☝️🏼 Soil : Canna Coco Professional + ☝️🏼 Fertilizer: Green House Powder Feeding ☝️🏼🌱 Water: Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC. Add Cal / Mag to 0.4 Ec Ph with Organic Ph - to 5.5 - 5.8 .

Now that you are all caught up, we are in week three a flower. I just gave them a top dress feet of Gaia green just blown because I still have just a little bit up all purpose in there but other than that I look at them every morning, give a big smile and turn on their favorite Mosark album

this week I did the top pruning to increase the production of the lower shoots to serve as clones when they are put to flower
