This week in my grow room has been full of developments. First, I added additional lights because I couldn't get the relative humidity (RH) under control. I ordered a dehumidifier, but it will take a few weeks to arrive, so I had to find a temporary solution. I also emptied the reservoir and refilled it with fresh water and nutrients. I secured the net to ensure it stays in place under tension. In two days, I plan to switch the light schedule to 12/12, hoping the plants will stretch a bit during the switch to avoid having overly large buds that aren't evenly spread. Seventeen hours later, I decided to keep the lights on a 16/8 schedule for a few more days. The plants are starting to show signs of something happening, so I want to see how they develop. I will keep you updated on the progress. Then, I received a message from my supplier that the dehumidifier would arrive today. Great news—time to spice things up! On June 2nd, the dehumidifier arrived, and I managed to get my Vapor Pressure Deficit (VPD) to 1.17! This is fantastic news, and I'm very curious how this will affect water usage. The dehumidifier seems pretty powerful, with water literally dripping out of the hose, so I'm no longer worried about high humidity levels. It's a shame it doesn't have a range setting, but I couldn't expect more for the price. I'm considering ordering the Dimlux Auxbox to set a working range and separate day/night settings. Thankfully, the dehumidifier has an auto-restart function after a power loss. On June 3rd, the night is over, and while my values are now more stable, I haven't noticed any significant differences in water absorption. What I do notice is that the pots seem much drier. The difference in leaf temperature compared to the room temperature has increased slightly, now about a 2˚C difference, indicating that evaporation has increased somewhat. Despite the dehumidifier cooling the air, the room temperature has risen. This is explainable since dry air heats up faster than humid air. The CO2 heater is also running significantly longer. So, although there are no immediately visible differences, there are indeed some changes. Today is the last short night of 8 hours, and tomorrow will be the first night of 12 hours. I am contemplating doing a 10-hour night first and will decide later tonight. After closely reviewing the video footage, I noticed some divergent colors on the leaves. My pH is currently 6.4, which I had adjusted to compensate for the low pH last week—a foolish decision in coco, I know. I plan to make videos of each individual plant for my records to investigate further. The light is too intense to inspect them up close, so the videos will help me get a better look.

Divine Seeds Auto V.2 Contest 👉Sponsored Grow👈 Big Demon Auto W11F6 8/10-16 Watered at the end of last week and have not watered yet this week. I have been foliar feeding at least once a day with the following blend. Calmag 15ml Plant Juice 60ml GH bloom 5ml Green Sensation 4ml Feed was ph 6.37, ppm 784 at 65f. I ph’d the water down to 6.25 with brought the runoff down to a range of 6.7-7.42 on the plants in the tent. I think it should be lower, but in the meantime, I hope this helps my tent family recover from lockout. Big Demon is starting to show some lavenders in her buds as they slowly develop. Thank you all for your continued support and encouragement. Your likes and comments motivate me to keep sharing my journey. Let’s continue to learn to grow together! Stay green, growers love 💚🌿 💫Natrona💫

This is actually my first time growing in Coco, so had a few issues in feeding at first.

Bud sites are producing black/purple spot in leaves. Bud growth is producing as the days go by. Really excited with this being my first grow Nitrogen boost really helped with the deficiencies. Plants are starting to look really heathy... Prunes lower colas that weren't stretching past the canopy and receiving energy so more energy can be used towards the top buds

Things seem to be progressing well overall, buds are fattening up nicely and you can clearly see pistils gradually turning brown with more and more trichomes appearing. The smell situation is interesting: not much odor around the tent itself, but when I open it up you definitely get that classic Northern Lights smell, very piney and earthy. It's not overwhelming yet but it's there. Now the bad news: as you can see in the photos, she's self-pollinated. I'm seeing the first seeds forming in some calyxes. I'm hoping it's just a few and won't impact the harvest too much, but in the worst case I'll just use the whole crop for hash. The hermie issue from previous weeks finally caught up with me. Environment has been pretty stable this week. Temps sitting around 21-24°C during lights on, dropping to high teens at night (sometimes hitting 17°C). Not ideal but the NL genetics are handling it fine. Humidity has been bouncing between low 40s and mid 60s with one spike to 66%, probably from watering and humidifier refill. VPD has been in the 1.0-2.0 kPa range most of the week, which is acceptable for mid-late flower. PPFD stayed steady around 640 during lights on, and CO2 is just ambient as usual with the typical spikes here and there. Feeding this week was a bit all over the place as I'm trying to find the right balance. On Mon 13th I gave her 1.5L with full bloom feed: Bio-Bloom, Bio-Grow, Top-Max, CalMag, SUPERthrive and Acti-Vera at pH 6.30 and EC 0.95 mS/cm going in. Runoff came out at EC 0.93 mS/cm and pH 6.11, so pretty clean. On Fri 16th I went lighter with just 1.5L of Alg-A-Mic (3 ml/L) and CalMag (0.3 ml/L) at pH 6.16 and EC 0.26 mS/cm, didn't get any runoff that time. Then today (Sun 19th) I ramped it back up with 1.5L of the full mix: Bio-Bloom (4 ml/L), Bio-Grow (4 ml/L), Top-Max (4 ml/L), CalMag (0.5 ml/L), SUPERthrive (0.27 ml/L), Acti-Vera and Alg-A-Mic at pH 6.20 and EC 1.60 mS/cm. Runoff came back at EC 1.70 mS/cm and pH 6.20, so the medium is holding a bit more salts than what I'm putting in but nothing crazy. Visually she looks healthy apart from the seed situation. Leaves are a nice green with no signs of deficiencies or burn. The buds are stacking well and frost is definitely coming in on the sugar leaves and bud tops. Structure is still tight and compact with all the main tops sitting at roughly the same height. Overall I'm cautiously optimistic. The hermie/seed issue is a bummer but as long as it doesn't get out of control I should still get a decent harvest. She's bulking up, staying healthy, and handling the cold temps without drama. Winter is here but she's not impressed, just keeps on growing.

So, jetzt endet mein Grow hier mit. Mein erster Grow jemals und noch dazu meine erste Automatic. Die Sorte Royal Bluematic war nicht unbedingt schwer anzubauen, sie hatte lediglich hier und da mal ein paar kleine Punkte von irgendwelchen Viechern, sonst nie Beschwerden gehabt. Würde nicht behaupten, dass die Pflanze extrem schwer anzubauen war aber auch nicht extrem leicht, allgemein kann ich das schlecht beurteilen, da es ja mein erster Grow war. Der Anbau war trotzdem recht einfach. Man sollte sie auf jeden Fall nicht hoher Luftfeuchtigkeit aussetzen, da meine zweite Bluematic ein paar Schimmel Stellen hatte, die hier zum Glück nicht. Im Endeffekt habe ich nicht viel gemacht, außer sie mal zu gießen, zu düngen und zu beschneiden. Ich bin mit 37g trockene Ernte rausgekommen. Hätte gedacht es ist deutlich weniger, bin aber sehr zufrieden ☺️ (Beim Nass Gewicht nur geschätzt, hab es nicht gewogen).

Really surprised with how everyone turned out! Everyone is starting to flower but Kayla definitely got the lead in terms of pistils and bud sites. These ladies still need to be LST every other day. Looking forward to an early harvest!

Posted a day later than usual 🌝 Nice and easy week again, some early signs of senescence showing on a few leaves. Quite dry in there this week so a few leaves are looking a bit crispy but all in all they’re looking good with no signs at this stage that bud rot appeared on other bud sites other than the one I cut off two weeks ago. The 18w Migro UVB will be installed next week, ready to be turned on two hours per day for the final three weeks. 🌱

Day 29: LST is done. I set the lamp approx 36 cm away. BlackBerry Kush, LSD-25 started flowering. All of them are OK started growing rapidly. 600W LED, 20 hours on 4 hours off the same with ventilation. Water intake: 75 ml per plant plus triggering, humidity around 60 percent. Fertilization is on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday with BioBizz family, Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday bat guano and Epsom salt. Day 30: I did LST again. I didn't have enough elastic band yesterday so I bought today and bent them better. I also set the lamp closer approx 34 cm. Day 31: I did LST yesterday and bent them. They already "lifted up" their heads toward the lamp. As they grow I will keep bending the main stalk and the side ones. I will try to create a spiral form and spread the plants with time. Day 32: Most of them started flowering except Colorado Cookies. BlackBerry Kush aggressively started floweing. This plant is very strong and aggressive. Day 35: pre flowers nicely coming along.... Balckbeery Kush and LSD-25 are the quickest. I changed the lamp as it is now really good.... so I placed an other 600W lamp there. I will swap these lamps one week here other week there. I will change that lamp after harvest. End of the week the tallest is BlackBerry Kush with approx 25 cm (I bent them so can't give perfect measurement) and the shortest plant is approx 18 cm.

First week Veg and the growth is remarkable! Starting out with a very much needed repotting, which they all appreciated. Their colour got fully uniform and more vibrant after only a couple of hours. Their definitive locations in the grow tent are: Top left - Sunset Sherbet Bottom left - Gorilla Glue (you can check out her diary on my profile) Top right - Bruce Banner Bottom right - Biscotti Mintz All are developing a strong structure with consistency. Very little water is needed, the humidity in the tent is stable by itself. Don’t got much to worry about, just enjoying watching them grow. Perks of a good living soil.
