Day 7 - Everything seems to be going ok they are all growing about the same pace! Day 8 - They are all growing pretty equal right now , extremely happy with how things are going!✌️🏼🌱 Day 11 - one plant has some twisted leaves hopefully it’s nothing serious😫 will be keeping a eye on her, other than that they all seem to be growing great! Thanks for following & happy growing friends!✌️🏼🌱 Day 13 - have a few with some weird leaves & growing a little slow, other 3 are growing pretty good! Hopefully they all do alright, fingers crossed! Happy growing friends!

Welcome to my new grow report! After a few rounds with two strains, this time it will be just one strain. I’m hoping that using a single variety will give me more uniform plants (in height). I chose Frozen Black Cherry from Anesia Seeds, an indica-dominant strain. On 03/12/25, five seeds were sown in 0.4-liter pots. These were filled with seed-starting soil and watered with Rhizotonic (EC 0.76 – pH 6.0 – 21°C). They were then placed on a heat mat set to 27°C using a thermostat. I never pre-germinate, so I simply put the seed straight into the moist, warm soil. On 05/12/25, one had already popped up, and the next day all five were above ground. Temperatures fluctuated between 20.9 and 26.0°C, and humidity stayed between 40 and 80%.

Es war Zeit für die Ernte, im Urlaub hatte sich an der Pflanze im Folientunnel Schimmel an der Hauptcola gebildet und auch etwas an der Pflanze auf der Terrasse. Es hatte in dieser Woche sehr viel geregnet. die Pflanze wurde geschnitten und zum Trocknen aufgehängt.

Plant 1: 2.40 Oz dry (chopped day 84) Plant 2: 4.85 Oz dry (chopped day 88) Happy with them so far. Will update post cure and smoke report.

Getting good temps and humidity , change the light to red and blues saw changes

Aroma is extremely strong, pistols are maturing, bud sites are becoming more dense, anthocyanins doing their job on this pheno, fan leaves began yellowing due to slight heat stress. Approaching Harvest

1/12 4:14AM MONDAY!!!!!!!! CBG IS GOOD!1 LOWERD THE WATTAGE, EFFICIENCY IS GOOD. GREAT WHITE MYCO HAS INCREASED UPTAKE AND AND!!!! PHOTOSYNTHESIS EFFICIENCY ......FUCKING AWESOME 💪💪💪💪 1/12 4:47AM I asked GROK: are samsung leds on my mars hydro lights seem more efficient than the PPFD meter says, I lowered the lights again by a few watts? Yes, the **Samsung LM301H EVO diodes** in your Mars Hydro lights (likely an FC-E series like FC-E3000, FC-E4000, or similar) are among the most efficient horticultural LEDs available right now—individual diodes hit **3.14 μmol/J** efficacy, pushing the whole fixture to around **2.85–2.9 μmol/J** PPE (photosynthetic photon efficacy) in manufacturer specs and independent tests. That's top-tier for full-spectrum grow lights, meaning they convert more electrical power into usable plant photons than older diodes or cheaper LEDs. If they "seem more efficient than the PPFD meter says" (your plants thriving at lower wattage/height adjustments), that's actually common and not a contradiction—it's often the **real-world efficiency** shining through once nutes/stress are fixed. Here's why this happens and what your recent wattage drop (a few more watts lower) likely means: ### Why Samsung LM301H EVO Can "Seem" More Efficient Than Raw PPFD Readings Suggest - **High PPE + Uniform Distribution**: These diodes excel at producing photons in the PAR range (400–700nm) with minimal waste (heat/loss). Mars Hydro FC-EVOs achieve strong average PPFD (e.g., 750–1000+ μmol/m²/s in tests at recommended heights/power) with even spread—no hot spots wasting energy. When your nutes were suboptimal (Advanced Nutrients issues), plants couldn't fully use the light (wasted photons → stress, stretch, lower efficiency). Now dialed in (GH powder + aminos + mycos), they convert more of that PPFD into growth—making the light "feel" stronger/more efficient even if meter numbers stay the same or drop slightly. - **Meter Limitations & Calibration**: - Handheld PAR meters (especially cheap/older ones) can under-read full-spectrum LEDs like LM301H EVO (strong white + red enhancement). They often have poor spectral response to the exact mix, reading 10–30% low compared to pro tools (Apogee SQ-500) or calibrated apps. - If you're using an app like Photone (mentioned in your diary), it's generally more accurate for Samsung full-spectrum lights (especially on iPhone; Android varies but often close with diffuser/paper). Many growers report Photone matching or exceeding cheap handhelds on LM301H setups—sometimes showing higher effective PPFD than a basic meter implies. - Bottom line: Your plants are the ultimate meter. Thriving (miraculous growth, no burn/stress) at lower wattage means the effective usable PPFD is higher than a potentially under-reading meter suggests—efficiency win. ### Your Wattage Drop & What It Means Lowering by a few more watts (on top of the earlier ~10% drop) is smart and aligns with the efficiency gains: - Dimming on Mars Hydro FC series is **very linear**—tests show PPFD percentage tracks close to (or slightly above) the dimmer % because diodes run more efficiently at lower currents (less heat/loss). - Example: Dropping from 100% to 90% might only reduce PPFD by ~8–10%, not full 10%, due to that efficiency curve. - Your plants handling it (still "miraculously better") without stretch or pale leaves confirms the sweet spot: likely 450–650 μmol/m²/s veg/late veg range now, with room to push if pistils emerge. - Solar bonus: Every watt saved = less battery drain on cloudy days, cooler tent (less fan/AC draw), and more headroom for extra plants without spiking consumption. **Practical next steps**: - Recheck PPFD (if using Photone/handheld): Average multiple canopy spots at current height/power—aim 450–600 for late veg autos, 600–800 early flower. - Watch response: If nodes stay tight/dark green/no cupping, you can drop another 5% or lower height slightly for denser canopy. - Log kWh if your inverter shows it—track the drop to celebrate the savings. - If meter still "under-says" vs. plant performance, trust the plants more—Samsung EVOs are proven beasts when the rest of the grow is dialed. This is textbook optimization: nute fix → better photon use → lower power for same/better results → solar efficiency skyrockets. You're building a truly lean system. How low are you at now (e.g., 70–75W total?)? Any pistils or new growth explosions today? Keep the momentum—it's paying off big. 🥊🍌👨‍🔬🚨🌞 1/13/26 7:47AM BRUTAL WEEK FOR THE MOP AND BUCKET GUYS AT MUDRUROS COMPOUND 1/13, 11:22 AM banana purple punch auto RF three is doing really great. I haven’t really needed to do anything. I decided not to top. I didn’t want to do anything except light stress training. I think she’s gonna turn out just great. Her stock is one of the thickest. She’s just perfect.😍😍😍

Plain RO water

Well I decided to transplant this one as she was holding to much water in that smaller container and she wasn't liking the soil so much so I put her into a more balanced soil no nutrient additives . She will hopefully be doing better by the end of the week and if not I'll still keep plugging away at her and here's to the best cheers ...

Woche 5 der Blüte. Heute haben sie das 2. Mal PK Boost bekommen.

The nutrients on here are only for the LA Divas and the mutants, not for the critical. That's still only on 2ml/l growth boom atm. The LA's are coming on beautifully, and starting to get faster and faster. The indoor especially. It seems to be going through a crazy fast growth boom. Preflowers everywhere! The crirical is looking amazing. Please stay tuned for that naughty girl after the harvest of the LA's and mutants. Day 33 40cm L.A Diva Indoor 21cm L.A Diva Outdoor Critical 28 cm. 2 mutants are about 10 cm tall. Probably not worth keeping but I may as well, they're Alive and flowering, and very strong and sturdy. Why not.

We decided to move the light from 24" to 30" to try widening the nodes a little before dropping back to 24", we're in unamended Promix so we typically start thinking about feed this week but being autos we're going to take it slow and wait on color ques before making that move (probably next week for sure)...thanks for reading and happy harvests everyone!! ❤️💡🌱😽💨 ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~ 10/25/21 😺 We gave all plants a very, very light feeding (<3ml/gal) to see how they tolerate it, its super early but a few were already beginning to wash out ..We started bending plants today, low stress only for these girl and everything looks great so far! This MarsHydro is intense, the node spacing is extremely tight on all plants and growth has been really steady (especially these last few days), we couldn't be happier!

Hello and welcome to week 2 of veg phase for these five Epsilon F1 Hybrid ladies. Last week is now complete with daily updates and media so please check it out. For this week well frankly I am expecting massive growth. I have taken 3 fingered leaves from Normani today and five fingered from Ally. It takes more time to photo and diarise but it is rewarding to look back on! See you tomorrow! Day 9: Nothing to report. Sorry for lazy photos. Oh... I joined twitter @UnorthadoxDude Day 10: Fertigated 5l. Loving Ally's party hands 👈👉 Day 11: Normani has overtaken Ally as the tallest and largest plant. Dinah has overtaken Lauren in a similar fashion. All girls kooking good except for some odd marks here and there (see video). Today after the photos and video and when she was back in the tent. I took about 4 or 5 leaves off each girl. You'll see tomorrow. If you're here from Twitter, where I am also @UnorthadoxDude, please say hello in the comments! I've just joined and want to gauge if it is worth the time. Day 13: Heights: Ally 23cm Normani 28cm Lauren 24cm Dinah 19cm Camila 17cm The girls have begun stretching it seems. Day 14: Fertigated 5l and performed LST and defoliation. Normani height was 32cm. End of week summary: Huge week of growth and these ladies are only just getting started. The pheno difference of Dinah is stark but super interesting.

Well there is not a whole lot to talk about , the legendary team over at Seedsman have been throwing out fire for so long . Was a great frosty strain to grow and would be a winner for hash or dabs extraction fans a must . .. it's a winner for sure in my books . She germinated fast in a paper towel and water in a warm spot. It lived well in soil amended with garden soil and compost .. never skipping a beat it was a good yielding strain and given enough room could have been the best in garden . The only draw back I had was it's resistance to pm .. it didn't matter what I did I was battling that in the final two weeks before harvest but nothing crazy just on down lower branches . Over all it took my mistakes and overfeeding with out even skipping a beat and could have easily been a monster that is very well suited for extracts because of the high trichomes content .. cheers and happy growing ..

there are very few amber trichomes, so it still needs a week. it sure looks great though. It's extremely greasy to the touch, and rank with bright fruit flavor.
