## Week 4 Update: Thriving Growth and New Techniques! ### 🌱 Vigorous Growth with Greenhouse Super Lemon Haze, Humboldt Seed Bubba Kush, and Blueberry Muffin 🌱 Welcome back to another exciting update on my grow journey with Greenhouse Super Lemon Haze, Humboldt Seed Bubba Kush, and Blueberry Muffin. The plants are thriving under optimal conditions, and I’ve started experimenting with new techniques to maximize their potential. --- ### Diary Snippet: Advanced Techniques and Optimal Conditions In Week 4, the plants are growing like weeds thanks to maintaining high PPFD (Photosynthetic Photon Flux Density) and optimal temperatures in the grow tent. These conditions are essential for maximizing photosynthesis and ensuring vigorous growth. --- ### Techniques Applied: LST and Defoliation #### Low-Stress Training (LST) This week, I applied Low-Stress Training (LST) for the first time. By gently bending and tying down the branches, I've created a more even canopy. This technique helps to: - **Increase Light Exposure:** Ensures all parts of the plant receive sufficient light. - **Improve Air Circulation:** Reduces the risk of mold and pests by allowing better airflow between the branches. - **Boost Yield:** Promotes the development of multiple colas, potentially increasing the overall yield. #### Defoliation In addition to LST, I also began defoliation, selectively removing some fan leaves to: - **Enhance Light Penetration:** Allows more light to reach the lower parts of the plant. - **Stimulate Growth:** Encourages the plant to focus its energy on bud development rather than foliage. --- ### Nutrient Management: Increasing Plagron Dosage As the plants grow, their nutritional needs increase. I've started to gradually increase the dosage of Plagron nutrients, following a careful schedule to prevent nutrient burn. Key benefits of Plagron nutrients include: - **Balanced Nutrient Profile:** Provides essential macro and micronutrients for robust plant growth. - **Improved Soil Structure:** Enhances the soil's ability to retain water and nutrients. - **Enhanced Flavor and Aroma:** Contributes to the development of rich, flavorful buds. --- ### Technology in Action: TM+ Pro App and TrollMaster To maintain and monitor the optimal growing conditions, I'm utilizing the TM+ Pro App and TrollMaster system: #### TM+ Pro App The TM+ Pro App has been invaluable for tracking and adjusting the environmental conditions in real-time. Key features include: - **Remote Monitoring:** Allows me to keep an eye on temperature, humidity, and light levels from anywhere. - **Data Logging:** Records environmental data for analysis, helping to fine-tune the growing conditions. - **Alerts:** Sends notifications if conditions deviate from the optimal range, enabling quick corrective actions. #### TrollMaster The TrollMaster system is integrated with the grow tent to automate and control various aspects of the environment: - **Climate Control:** Manages temperature and humidity levels to ensure a stable environment. - **Lighting Automation:** Adjusts the light intensity and schedule to mimic natural sunlight patterns. - **Nutrient Delivery:** Automates the feeding schedule, ensuring the plants receive nutrients at the right time and in the right amounts. --- ### Spotlight on Blueberry Muffin 🌿 🥦🥦🥦🥦🥦 **Cannabis Strain Benefits** 🧐 🤓 Blueberry Muffin has been a delightful addition to the grow tent. This strain is known for its sweet, berry-like aroma and potent relaxing effects. It's been growing robustly alongside the other strains and is responding well to the advanced techniques applied. - **Parentals:** Blueberry x Purple Panty Dropper - **Type:** Indica-dominant Hybrid - **Flowering Time:** 8-9 Weeks - **Flavor / Taste / Smell:** Berry, Sweet, Earthy - **Effect:** Relaxing, Euphoric, Happy - **THC Content:** 18-22% - **Characteristics:** Dense Buds, High Resin Production The Blueberry Muffin plants are showing strong growth and developing beautiful, dense buds with a rich aroma. They are a bit more sensitive to defoliation, so I've been careful to remove only the necessary leaves to ensure optimal growth without stressing the plants too much. --- ### Looking Ahead With the application of LST, defoliation, and precise nutrient management, the plants are set for an impressive growth phase. The TM+ Pro App and TrollMaster system will continue to play a crucial role in maintaining optimal conditions. Stay tuned for next week's update as the plants progress and more advanced techniques are applied! Happy growing! 🌿💚

🏆Eternity Grow Cup 2025 Plagron and Zamnesia🏆 Runtz Zamnesia Seeds - 37 days in, and our girl has spread wide, reaching 60 cm in width with plenty of branches. We gave her a little trim, and now we're considering cutting some branches, but I can't decide yet if it's the right move. Feel free to comment below on whether I should or shouldn't, and what benefits it might bring. Other than that, she's doing great, happily feeding on Plagron nutrients. Thanks again to everyone for the likes and comments. Special thanks to Zamnesia and Plagron!

Solid week. All the clones responded really well to the new res. And they didn’t fully transition the first time so were quick to start re-veging. We’re flipping to flower now to try and keep plant heights down and root mass smaller. *Notes: hopeful to see some quality representation from at least a couple of these clones once the run in the main tent starts to turnover. Still genetically firing from the hip but there’s usually at least one of those prized purple and pink hue phenos in every run of this strain. If I can keep that trait prevalent throughout later generations of this cross - it’s a win.

420Fastbuds-Week 2 Orange President Auto These girls have definitely rooted and started upward. They're about 3in tall and showing daily growth. I stopped watering by spraying the soil and started hand watering 250-500ml daily. I use calmag 5ml/gal every feeding. So far they've responded well and I look forward to the weeks to come.

2/17 have about one week before harvest. Then 4 more will move in to the 2/18 harvested 3 plantz. 1 strawberry cough and 2 runtz. 66 days of flower. I will post picture of when done drying and going to cure. I defoliated my week 4 of flower girls. Adjusting week 7 girls under the net so they stay upright under the weight of bud there. And moving 3 more girls in to flower 1 runtz, one washington apple, and 1 . Also water night one gal of water per stage of flower. So the 3 in weeks 7 get 1 gal split between them and so do the week 4 girls 1 gal split between them

Ok, so things are moving faster now. I checked the trichomes for the first time this week and they are pretty much all milky in the buds at the top and the middle. The lower buds have somewhat more clear trichomes, and I might have been more radical when I did perform the lollipop. The plant in the back right corner started to get a little purple on the leafs at the buds, which I think looks pretty cool. Harvest time could be within the next week, pretty sure still this month. I am waiting to see some amber in the trichomes like 10%ish and will leave them in 48h of darkness afterwards. I am still playing with the idea of a partial harvest, but I don't have well controlled options to dry my flowers outside of the Growbox. So I do not want to risk anything by a lack of airflow or potentially a humidity that could be off. I hope the buds will pack some more this week to come. Sensi Seeds says it is a medium harvesting plant, so I'll see what I'll get. I definitely want to let them have clear water one last time before harvest, because I gave them nutrients up until now. I would love to see more changes in the colours of the leafs and the plant eating itself up, to not have any unnecessary nitrogen with an impact on the taste. Sensi Seeds says this strain needs 7-10 weeks of flower so we are well within that time schedule.

Deepforest Super auto is growing great. She has been thriving and making a lot of progress. I delayed her solution change she has been doing so well. I will likely have to in about a week. I did her first lst and selective defoliation on her today. She is looking good. I did turn tge light down from 40 percent to about 30. She seemed to be growing stocky. I want her to reach a little more. I know there is still lots of growth to come. Everything is going great.

I have a lot of vertical space and little horizontal space, that's why I'm not using networks. Only a central 8 mm iron stake, in the absence of a net, to prevent the weight of the buds from bending the side branches, I am tying them to the central stake with ropes made of “t-shirt rags” (they have just the right elasticity and do not hurt the plants, and I have many old t-shirts, haha). It is an economical and simple, but effective solution. Likewise, for those who do not have horizontal space problems, I recommend using networks! Glueberry OG I'm going to cut it next week (before the rains announced for Monday the 24th. Greetings!
