Once again, this week starts where the former one ended. With the exception of all the cables you can see in the first picture. I dared to install a minimalized version of the Raspi control only controlling the self-built humidifier and one blower/fan combination. I was very pleased to see how easily the simple diffusor can hold optimum VPD as long as temperatures are high and humidity tends to fall below optimum VPD. A single 10 seconds evaporation can hold the level for about 2–3 minutes. I am not pleased to see the Monsanto blowers rather underperform. It’s impossible to reduce humidity or temperature with both running on full speed, while a lifting of the tent door will bring immediate changes. With the Raspi/Arduino success so far*, I am thinking about using old Power Mac fans which are WCM controllable and use 12 V. At least one to increase air intake, and maybe even the blowers. * It wasn’t any problem at all to have the Arduino collect CO2 and soil moisture data, so after some more cable manufacturing (aka helpless soldering), I could extend the Raspi control. I’m still uncertain about the camera module (@trelorny impressed me with his time lapse videos). I don’t want to put the hardware into the tent with its not so electronics friendly climate, already risking some rare outages of the temp/hum sensor. But the camera module cannot be placed far away. So maybe I’ll use the 3A model I own as a spare part as a camera driver. Any maybe, if it works, invest in a better camera module. Mine is generation 1. Oh, and the ladies! Gave them slightly fertilised water yesterday, and even it or the better VPD yesterday or a combination of both make me believe bud growth is a bit more visible today. The smell in the morning when I open the tent to release accumulated humidity is outstanding. They were already thirsty on day 57 again, so pure RO + a bit of tap water until it spilled out of their pot’s bottoms. Many fan leaves turning autumnally now, and the smallest Sherbet suffered a bit from over-fertilisation as I wrote. But it this stage I don’t go for leaf beauty anymore. Just another learning: Don’t use differently sized pots anymore. Hard to feed them individually this way. VPD was mostly in best range yesterday, and I have the feeling it really supports their bud growth. I added an "Evening time" option to my Raspi control that allows the humidity to sink a selected time before lights shut down. That made it possible to have humidity in best range for most of the night time too. They were even dry again on day 58 morning. Another time just water. The blowers cannot cope with the flowers’ smell anymore, and so sometimes my flat cannot hide who shares it with me. Day 60 presents me with a problem: I’ll leave on Friday for a few days. Considering the microscope pictures are not from the tops buds: Would you say it’s safe to give them another week? Problem solved on day 61. Only clean water from now on, and next week will be their last. You won’t see any new pictures for some days now. Me too … Something I wanted to share with you before I leave: I just finished to update my grow box control with a new PWM fan hat that keeps the Raspi cool, while at the same an infrared sensor can now measure real leaf and additional ambient temperature. Setup is much cleaner and more robust now, but I wish my flux would not make the solder stick to the tip of the machine instead of making it flow and stick at the tiny tiny spots I have to hit …

Semana 11 - 03/01 al 10/01 *Cuarto Menguante 09/01* . 04/01: hoy desate todos los hilos y regué. Creo que ya es momento de dejar que la planta fluya. Las ramas ya están cubiertas de brotes. y la punta se ramificó lo suficiente. Influyó en la decisión de desatarla el hecho de que las ramas se estaban marcando en el nudo y me pareció bueno que descanse estas ultimas semanas vegetativas. Al ser mi primera vez no quiero arriesgar mucho. Me preocupa la parte climática. Esta armándose pequeñas tormentas con vientos muy fuertes. 05/01: hoy aplique 1L de agua con dos tapitas de jabón potásico de forma foliar. Aparte regué el suelo. Mucha vitalidad y buena salud. 06/01: hoy aplique Top Veg de Top Crop. 3ml x 1L de agua. Fueron 20L con los que regué. 09/01: hoy regué luego de 3 días sin regar. Le puse bastante agua. Luego de ver el crecimiento que esta teniendo, decidi ponerle malla. Esta semana tratare de comprar y colocarle. Quizá le ponga una malla ahora y otra a los 50cm para que contengan los cogollos.

Week 11 Flower Report for the Anesia Run 🌸🌿 Hey Grow Diaries fam! 🌱✨ Welcome back to another exciting update on our Anesia run. We’re deep into Week 11 of flower, and let me tell you, the garden is absolutely thriving! The girls are showcasing their full potential, and the canopy is a vibrant sea of frosty buds. Grab a cup of your favorite brew, sit back, and let’s dive into this week’s report filled with fun facts, details, and a sprinkle of positivity! 🌟🌸 Nutrient Update 🌿🔬 This week, we’ve continued with our nutrient regimen, making a few key adjustments to ensure the plants are getting everything they need to produce those sticky, resinous buds. Our mix includes: • Regulator: Keeping the plants’ stress levels in check and ensuring optimal growth. • CalMag: Providing essential calcium and magnesium for strong cell walls and overall plant health. • P-Boost: Enhancing flower development and increasing bud size. • K: Introducing potassium to boost bud density and improve overall flower quality. • Top Booster: Supporting the final push in flower production, ensuring those buds are as big and healthy as possible. Our TDS has been adjusted to 500, with a pH of 6.0, keeping the environment perfect for nutrient uptake. 🌿💧 Environmental Control 🌞🌡️ Temperatures have been steady at 21°C, creating the ideal environment for our girls. Consistency is key in these final stages, as we want to avoid any stress that could affect bud development. 🌡️ Fun Facts & Details 🌸✨ 1. Trichome Wonderland: The trichomes on these ladies are sparkling like diamonds. Did you know that trichomes are the plant’s way of protecting themselves from UV rays and pests? They also contain the highest concentration of cannabinoids, making them the heart of the plant’s potency. 2. Pistil Party: The pistils are starting to turn a beautiful amber, signaling that harvest time is approaching. Fun fact: pistils are the female part of the flower and are responsible for catching pollen to produce seeds. In our case, no seeds, just beautiful, potent buds! 3. Aroma Explosion: The terpene profile is off the charts. Walking into the grow room is like stepping into a fragrant garden. Each strain has its unique scent, from the sweet and fruity notes to the pungent and earthy undertones. Did you know terpenes not only provide aroma but also enhance the effects of cannabinoids through the entourage effect? 4. Leaf Yellowing: Some of the lower leaves are beginning to yellow and fall off. This is perfectly normal as the plant focuses its energy on bud production. It’s a sign that our girls are nearing the end of their life cycle, putting all their effort into flowering. 5. Bud Density: The buds are getting denser by the day. Proper potassium levels have been crucial in achieving this. Dense buds mean more weight and better quality, making all our efforts worthwhile. Special Shoutouts 🌟❤️ A massive thank you to our amazing community and all the support we get on Grow Diaries! Your comments, tips, and encouragement mean the world to us. 🌍✨ Anesia Seeds, thank you for these incredible genetics. Each plant is a masterpiece in its own right. 🌱❤️ To our sponsors Aptus Holland and Future of Grow LED, your products have been pivotal in creating this green oasis.

01/28/23 - Gave her another round of haircut and lollipop. Under the canopy looks lot cleaner. I have better air circulation and light penetration now. Defol also exposes lot more cola sites to the light. Hoping she doesn't go in shock since it's an auto. She is a late bloome, I am just starting to see more pistils. So most likely she will live in the tent for another couple months! 01/29/23 - She drank a gallon of fox farm nutrients (grow and bloom). I was worried about sending her in shock with latest defol. The way her canopy turned out a day later, absolutely gorgeous 😍! 02/01/23 - Frustratingly did another round of defoliation. I see pistils but she is not ready to come out of vegetation. I might contact ILGM to figure out what's going on here. 02/03/23- End of week 9 for this girl. Still in preflower. The bud sites are getting thicker and I am seeing more pistils. It's nowhere near where I want it to be but I've decided to give it the time it needs.

Esta semana seleccionamos las plantas más adelantadas de nuestro cultivo, para colocarlas bajo la nueva luminaria Led LazerLite Pro 720 de The Pure Factory, con la potencia ajustada al 50%. Miramos de que las cuatro variedades estén representadas bajo el led y bajo las lamparas HID, de esta forma podremos ver las diferencias entre los dos sistemas. Seguimos con nuestra rutina de fertilización para la fase vegetativa Grow Soldier + Green Mystic by JUJU Royal y CALMAG de BioBizz. Al final de la semana, cambiamos el ciclo lumínico para pasar a 12/12 Floración.

This is the fourth week of growing. These flowers are amazing. I've germinated them the same way, the same time with the same conditions, they got the same amount of soil, light, nutrients, but the difference between them is huge. The tallest plant is 100 cm, the middle is aprox. 50 cm, and the smallest is 15 centimetres. I have never seen any seeds with the same genetics and such a huge difference between each plant. The plants got blooming nutrients for the second time, except the smallest one, she still gets veg nutes. Unfortunately I've got fruit flies again, so I am protecting the plants with some glue traps. I had to buy some Secret Jardin Monkey Clip fans, because the old fan did not fit into the wardrobe. The wardrobe is actually a pretty good growbox, the only disadvantage is that it can't fit more than 3 plants.

Just watered with water this week. Sometimes I add some Bio-Bizz products but rarely. The plants need trimmed. I am going to wait until next week which will be 21 days from 12/12 to give them a nice trim to open them up for more light and clear the lower growth. Everything is perfect temperature and humidity, light, Co2, air circulation... All on point. 👌

The harvest wasn't the biggest. But high quality. I will increase the light density by adding CFL to the grow room. And test the nest grow how much I can push the yeild.
