Gorilla Jealousy F1 is doing her thing. She is shifting into a bulking stage. She did show a major ph drop yesterday to today. She is likely due for a solution change. I will try to redo her solution this next week when I get a chance. Her smell has not really started up strong yet. I feel that will change over the next few weeks.

She's looking as pretty as anything this week!! I think she's almost there. Just waiting on more pistils to change colour. Trichomes are mostly milky. I note she is quite smelly!!!!!!

Total Days: 70 Flower: 31 Vege growth is stopped or very slow at this point. Might eke out another inch or two. I'll raise the lights as far as they can go soon (only 3-4" for the 650w light on right), but with the higher operating RH%, I've yet to see any pistil burn. The light cycle shift to accomodate the painters definitely stressed 2 plants. One was removed. The second i am retardedly going to keep. I stripped off lower weak buds that had the nanners. Pruned a few weak axilla, too. The nearby plant pistils are lily white, so it should be fine. The pistils will be changing color soon, so that will no longer be a good way to assess the risk going forward. Meh, I know it was caused by light stress, so any seeds not selfed I'll probably keep them. Overall, I'm relatively happy with development. Need to adjust some procedures in next cycle and maybe a few more tweaks in winter 2025-1. Second irrigation went well, but i did find a partially clogged emitter. Probably a plastic bit from hold-punching. With 8 emitters per pot, the overkill makes it irrelvant and the pot wasn't the slowest to finish. A few emitters has some roughly milled inlets. I'll inspect them all over the next couple weeks and replace some as needed. Just realized my new dehum was glowing in my tent the entire time. Luckily the display was facing away but now has a cardboard flap blocking it. If it was fine before, it's even safer now. Photons had to bounce of a wall and travel 5' before it could hit any plant. ----- Early update before end of week upday: So, I've been procrastinating replacing the irrigation setup. It's slowly gotten worse each year (3rd ongoing), but never had the dripper devolve into a dribble. I've been hand-watering 1 or 2 pots the last week or so. Replacing the mini sprinkler heads only fixed 1 of the problem-pots. Think the fittings are leaking on the one that did not improve. All the pvc is gone. All the 1/4" manifolds and tubing are gone. The per plant adjustable nonsense is the worst idea ever as all it does is cause pressure changes and endless tweaking of all the little sprinklers, because changing one impacts all the others, or a speck of dirt might cause a new imbalance that requires adjustments etc - Fucking nightmare of useless repetitive behaviour. Still have the 3/4" ID lead-in, heavy duty, 450psi graden hose with ball shut-off valve and pressure regulator. That is now connected to a 3/4" wye with two 1/2" irrigation tube adapters attached to each end. This forms a loop around the pots with a 1/2" tee per pot that leads to a gate shut-off valve and eight 2-gph pressure compensating emitters - 96 in total. Will do first test run on Sunday. The great thing is that this is all plug and play when I switch to injectors. That'll require some sort of pvc manifold and check valve at the utility tub, but otherwise just connect hose, and it's golden. That's the next step. I'll also re-incorporate the wifi-enabled solenoid valve at that point. Getting rid of the 55-gallon reservoir and pump would be nice. One less thing to maintain (rez) and less things that can break down (pump / powerhead). ------ Sunday Test Flawless first run. Time will tell if they are resistant to clogging, but optimistic at this point. 18psi operational pressure at the irrigation loop. Didn't even need the regulator. The mesh strainer at the pump intake doesn't have the typical, small air-bubble, so the last setup was letting a little air in. The last setup was fatally flawed. Pressure compensating emitters for the win. They didn't even squirt wildly as the air was expelled from empty tubing on first run. Took ~4mins or so. Some pots finished a bit sooner, but that's because they don't drink as much per 24 hours. I can live with that kind of waste. I'll get the timing down to reduce water usage even further. I don't need to wait for every pot to exhibit runoff as that is beyond 10% runoff needs. Might be able to get 4 fertigations before refilling reservoir instead of 3. We'll see. I don't like the minimum ~12-15 gallons sitting over night. It fouls the reservoir faster at low volumes. Anyway, super geeked. They better not clog easily, lol....

Greetings, fellow cultivators! It's time for the Week 6 from Seed and Week 2 Flower Report on our illustrious Epsilon F1, and the journey of green excellence continues to unfold. Our botanical champion is now fully immersed in the flowering phase, and let me tell you, the spectacle is nothing short of breathtaking. In this pivotal week, our Epsilon F1 has truly come into her own, showcasing the beauty and resilience that only a seasoned grower can appreciate. The transition from veg to flower has been seamless, a testament to the meticulous care and attention lavished upon her. As we delve deeper into the flowering phase, our guiding hand remains steady, ensuring our green queen stays low and wide, maximizing light penetration and promoting an even canopy. It's a delicate dance of cultivation, a choreography that promises a bountiful harvest of botanical splendor. The environment continues to be a haven of stability, with room temperatures and humidity maintained at optimal levels. Consistency is key, providing our Epsilon F1 with the perfect conditions to thrive and flourish. Now, let's talk nutrients! The Aptus Holland super soil mix continues to be the cornerstone of our feeding regimen, providing a symphony of nutrients that nourish our plant from root to tip. Micromix Soil, Substrate Buffer Powder, All-in-One Pellet – it's the nutritional trifecta that ensures our Epsilon F1 remains healthy and vibrant. But that's not all! Our foliar friend, NutriSpray, makes a triumphant return, showering our green goddess with a gentle rain of nutrients. This foliar feast not only provides essential microelements but also leaves a protective coating on the leaves, safeguarding against environmental stressors and promoting overall plant health. And let's not forget our trusty sidekick, Mycor Mix. This microbial powerhouse continues to work its magic in the root zone, fostering a symbiotic relationship that enhances nutrient uptake and promotes root health. Our Epsilon F1 is not just a plant; she's a botanical masterpiece in the making. Shout-outs to Royal Queen Seeds for the genetics that continue to dazzle, and heartfelt gratitude to Aptus Holland for crafting nutrients that elevate our grow space to new heights of green excellence. Stay tuned, dear readers, as we bear witness to the unfolding chapters of the Epsilon F1 saga. Happy growing, and may your gardens be forever green!

Everything is going good, girls are looking healthy and already reeking. Going to veg for another 4 weeks I looking to do a scog canopy which I would need bigger plants which need more time to grow. I can see there about to stretch this time in veg

10 days of darkness during the flush begins. Had great results with Wanda and her genetics. Blessed for a first grow. Cut Wanda down at the end of the week. She’s now drying. I will be giving a thorough review for my harvest diary. Excited to share what I’ve experienced and learned from this grow.

08/30/2018 Day 1 of week 2 Flowers are developing nicely should be ready for pollination soon just waiting on little more buds,as I want a good amount of seedlings to choose from 08/31/2018 Feed Fox farms big bloom at heavy feeder dose 1/2 cup per gallon. Getting ready to pollinate maybe mid-week? Pistols popping up every where, almost ready for pollination. 09/02/2018 Not sure if Cherry Pie pollen will take did not look to good,but we will see,Mystery Cookie pollen looked perfectly fresh!

This week has been a difficult one, the cold has come and it's been a struggle to keep the temperature up, yet the girls are pushing on. Smelling strong and lovely 😍 covered in sticky resin. 😋

The solstice. Here we go! I hope to start seeing some action soon and pulling out males. I have my hunches, but haven't confirmed any pollen sacks. The plants got over watered so I have laid off the watering for now. I will be preparing my last transplants soon so I modified pot size to show 30 gallon. So far so good. No changes yet. Considering LST for the 4 plants growing together. I indicated weak smell, but you can begin to get subtle hints of lemony/orangey aromas. Happy Growing grow-mies.
