Mild defoliation throughout this week. Flush imminent so will leave the remaining fans as nute banks. Next run with these genetics I'll be running a monstercropped clone under this scrog and will go heavier with the defoliation earlier on. I was advised this on here this grow and did a bit but have learned I need more! Forever learning. Looks like it's gonna be an epic harvest. These girls smell absolutely dank. Testament to the quality of these Madame Grow Fertilisers. Harvest just get better every time! Also big shout out to my bro at NatureDelight.co.uk providing some awesome organics to add into the grow schedule. Used The Active Sugar Boost all through flower at 3ml per litre this run and I think the results speak for themselves. I cannot implore you guys enough to go check this stuff out. It's unique and you wont find better customer service. Lots of vids and content this week as we all love bud shots <3

Flowering day 19 since the time change to 12/12. Hey all together 😀. This week she has developed beautifully ☺️. I poured it 3 times with 1.2 l this week. Tomorrow I will add the 2 g GHSC Powder Feeding Bio Bloom because the first blossoms are coming :-). I checked all the leaves thoroughly for pests or diseases and everything is fine ☺️. Next week I'll look at your roots as soon as the coconut is completely rooted. As every week, the tent was cleaned and the entire technology checked. The humidifier was also refilled every day 👍. In the next few days I will remove the bottom shoots so that the energy doesn't end up being wasted in the small popcorn buds. I wish you a lot of fun with the update.

|»» LOG DISCLAIMER: Not intended as a grow guide. Grow log entries are usually posted 3 weeks later and are for my learning reference. ««| Introduction - Week 11 Summary - Ensign's log, stardate 17517.6, Another healthy week in the garden! Heady OG is filling in her pot beautifully and wow growth is healthy and all I see is green! Ca-Caw! TKO has also been raging and blowing up with growth! Re-strung the scrog frame and dropped it in place. Also upgraded the tent a bit by installing Vivosun’s CFM Kit. Pancaked TKO and started training her to fill in the back two quadrants of the tent. Heady also reached the netting! Started some low-stress training to fill in the front two quadrants. Veg tent has been healthy and gnat free! Super-cropped the mothers and the canopy has been recovering nicely! Also started germinating my first batch of popcorn tea! This will be my first time applying any Sprout Seed Tea (SST) and plan to feed next week. Onwards to next week Ensign!

Canopy is healthy and green! --- Pots also looking incredible and gnat free! Nematodes for the win! - [+01:06]: Quickly checked on the auto-watering system. --- System is still charged and no leaks or kinks found in the tubing. - [+01:10]: Checked the humidifiers. --- Tanks are still full and no leaks found. --- Easy night in the garden! Day 02 - Tuesday - 07/01/25 - Total Days: 079 ----------------------------------- Daily Averages ~[+01:00] - Temps: 85.3°F [29.6°C] - Humidity: 77.4% - VPD: 0.94 kPa - Soil %: [48, 41, 49, 53, 42, 43, 43, 42] ----------------------------------- - [13:03]: Smoke update! --- Wow! I think I found the one! --- Both of the Garlic Budder phenos (OG#1 and OG#2) are getting pretty dank! --- Both have been curing for a good 6-7 months (since 12/13/24) and now taste completely different! The #2 pheno now has a pungent earthy fuel profile which has made her a keeper! The #1 pheno is more on the purple sweeter terp profile side, which is not really enough to be a keeper, but the smoke is definitely smoother and terpier than before. --- Still searching for more keepers, but now have a potential mother to breed with. Getting hyped! --- Wow curing really does make a huge difference! --- As for the Gorilla Goat phenos, they have been curing for about 3 months (since 04/08/25) and taste okay but nothing special. The #1 pheno still has a pretty loud lemon cleaner nose, but nothing to special on the smoke. Yet. I think. --- Also, for this cycle, plan to probably reduce the 18/6 harvest flip from 7 days down to 4 days. I think 7 days might have been too long and may have caused some re-vegging. --- Will continue to pheno hunt for more keepers! - [16:21]: Evening check on the 4x4 tent. --- Wow the garden is raging! --- All growth looks green and the canopy is filling in! --- Heady OG is starting to reach the side of the 30 gallon pot, but still has a ways to go before reaching the scrog frame. Growth looks healthy and green so I’m happy! --- Wow TKO is bushy and getting enormous! She has already started to fill in the front left quadrant of the tent. - [16:23]: Alright! Time to start scrogging and training out the canopy. Let’s go! --- Temporarily took the PVC scrog frame out of the tent. - [16:35]: Okay time to re-string the frame! --- Like always, used mason string for the netting and double-looped each screw. Strung the vertical lines before weaving the horizontal lines over and under the vertical lines. --- Also covered the top of each corner with foil and masking tape. - [17:14]: Done! Scrog frame is re-strung and looking great! --- Set the frame aside for a bit. - [17:15]: Going to give Vivosun’s High CFM (cubic feet per minute) Support Kit a try. --- Once the scrog frame is installed, the back area is difficult to access. So need to install the kit before placing the frame back in. --- The kit came with 4 identical support bars which snap snugly onto the vertical tent bars. --- Assembly was pretty straight forward and the bars snapped and screwed together with ease. --- To make the process a lot easier, I installed all the corners first. The bars easily snapped into the corner pieces and once fully secured, the whole tent feels a lot more stable. The kit also widens the tent to keep the fans from hitting the sides. --- Left the front bar off for now (only have the front corners installed). --- To ensure that the support bars are level, decided to place the bottom (back and front) bars just above where the tent bars snap together (about 41 inches from the floor). The top (side) bars were installed just above (about 43 inches from the floor). --- These bars should help to keep the walls of the tent expanded which should give more room for the oscillating fans. - [18:05]: Installed and gently dropped the scrog frame into place. --- Secured each corner to each corner (flag pole) clip. --- The frame height was not adjusted and the netting is about 33 inches from the floor. --- Also trained TKO and tucked her taller branches under the netting. --- Super-cropped and pinched a few branches and redirected them away from the front area of the tent. --- Lastly, installed the front CFM bar. --- Keeping the front area clear for Heady OG and won’t flip to flower until the frame is completely full. --- Heady OG still has yet to reach the netting, but that’s okay. --- Plan to veg for another month or so before flipping to flower so Heady OG has plenty of time to fill in the front. --- Grow strong my girls! - [18:19]: Checked the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: ------------------ [ 4x4 MAIN TENT ] --------------- ------ 46% - [CH01 FT » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 41% - [CH02 FB » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 54% - [CH03 BT » G20 - TKO] ------ 53% - [CH04 BB » G20 - TKO] ------------------ [ 3x3 VEG TENT ] ---------------- ------ 40% - [CH05 BL » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#1] ------ 43% - [CH06 BR » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#2] ------ 47% - [CH07 FL » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #1] ------ 40% - [CH08 FR » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #2] --------- Veg: 38% - 45% | Flower: 45% - 55% --------- General: 30% [Dry] | 45 - 60% [Moist] | 70% [Wet] - [18:21]: Checked the 3x3 veg tent. --- Mothers are vegging along beautifully and wow the canopy has exploded! --- The canopy has almost reached the grow light! --- Time to super-crop! - [18:35]: To make the process a lot easier, used a pair of needle-nose pliers. --- For added cushioning, the tips of the pliers were wrapped in masking tape. - [18:37]: Perfect! The canopy is flat and a good 5-6 inches lower! --- The pliers made super-cropping a whole lot easier! Especially stoked on how well they worked on the Garlic Budder phenos in the back. Both have brittle branches and when pinching and bending, a few usually break. But not when using the pliers. Nice! --- Pots also look great and no signs of gnats! The double inoculation seemed to have eliminated the larval population and the under canopy is thriving! - [18:41]: Checked the humidifiers. --- Tanks are still full and no leaks found. --- Another grow day done! Day 03 - Wednesday - 07/02/25 - Total Days: 080 ----------------------------------- Daily Averages ~[+01:00] - Temps: 85.4°F [29.7°C] - Humidity: 78.1% - VPD: 0.91 kPa - Soil %: [49, 40, 49, 53, 43, 41, 43, 45] ----------------------------------- - [23:06]: Quick night check on the 4x4 tent. --- Looking green and growth is perking up nicely! --- Heady OG is getting bigger and she has almost reached the edge of the pot. Also no gnats and no flooding. Perfect! --- TKO is recovering from the scrogging an growth is straightening up towards the grow light! Great! --- Trained a few of TKO’s front branches. Trying to keep her front growth from over taking the front area. - [23:17]: Checked the 3x3 veg tent. --- Wow! Growth has almost fully recovered and most already perky! --- Canopy is nice and low with tops everywhere! --- Pots also look great and gnat free! - [23:19]: Checked the humidifiers. --- Tanks are still full and no leaks found.

Good morning ladies! Garden is looking healthy and green! --- Heady OG is looking bit droopy but she is just waking up. --- TKO is looking healthy and perky! - [16:59]: Took the weekly general PPFD readings. ------ Heady OG (BX1 #1) was around 307 μmol/m²/s which gives a DLI of 19.89 mol/m²/d under an 18/6 light cycle. ------ TKO was around 344 μmol/m²/s which gives a DLI of 22.29 mol/m²/d under a 18/6 light cycle. - [17:14]: Took height and light distance measurements. ------ Heady OG (BX1 #1) was about 17" tall. ------ TKO was about 20.5" tall. ------ Heady OG (BX1 #1) was about 4" away from the scrog netting. ------ Heady OG (BX1 #1) was about 36" away from the grow light. ------ TKO was about 31.5" away from the grow light. - [17:24]: Checked the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: ------------------ [ 4x4 MAIN TENT ] --------------- ------ 52% - [CH01 FT » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 40% - [CH02 FB » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 54% - [CH03 BT » G20 - TKO] ------ 53% - [CH04 BB » G20 - TKO] ------------------ [ 3x3 VEG TENT ] ---------------- ------ 40% - [CH05 BL » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#1] ------ 40% - [CH06 BR » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#2] ------ 45% - [CH07 FL » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #1] ------ 42% - [CH08 FR » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #2] --------- Veg: 38% - 45% | Flower: 45% - 55% --------- General: 30% [Dry] | 45 - 60% [Moist] | 70% [Wet] --- All WittFlow units are also connected and charged.

All growth is raging and starting to stretch upwards again! --- Pots look good and no signs of gnats. Perfect! - [19:22]: Ca-Caw! Time to start making some popcorn tea! --- This will be my first attempt at any form of Sprouted Seed Tea (SST). What can possibly go wrong right? --- Anyways, --- Shoutout to Easy-E and Bleezy along with Minnesota Nice for the basic recipe and technique! Feed the worms and keep the soil hydrated. The worms will do the rest. --- Of course shoutout to the legend who inspired all three, Subcool420. His videos are still on YouTube and are an inspiration to keep striving to grow better and to eventually breed the best genetics. Peace and live forever through good memories. 🖖 --- Over a decade of dope and living soil is still the way to grow! Stay up weed nerds! --- Adjusted the original 10 gallon SST recipe to a 1 gallon batch. --- Also adding in a bit of aloe for the initial seed soak. --- To germinate and sprout the popcorn, using a one pint (2 cups) wide-mouth mason jar. --- Alright Ensign, don’t frack this up! Let’s go! ------ Added 2tbsp of Popcorn Seeds ------ Added 1 cup of RO water ------ Added 1/64tsp of Horticultural Aloe --- Mixed the solution and seeds around a bit. - [17:46]: Decided to also place the jar on the heating mat. --- The thermostat is set to a warm 83°F (currently at 85.2°F) --- Shouldn’t be an issue since the local weather is warming up, but just want to keep the jar nice and warm. --- To keep the jar insulated, covered it with a towel. --- Done! --- Going to soak the seeds for at least 24hrs before draining out the water. Then plan to rinse the seeds daily with RO water for about a week before blending up and feeding! --- The sprouted popcorn will contain both growth enzymes and cytokinins which will help the soil biology. --- Also the worms will enjoy the extra nutrients! - [+00:55]: Quickly checked on the auto-watering system. --- System is still charged and no leaks or kinks found in the tubing. - [+00:57]: Checked the humidifiers. --- Tanks are still full and no leaks found.

Growth looks green and healthy which is the most important. --- TKO is just raging! Tops are already pointing straight up and stretching towards the grow light. - [16:31]: Using both my hands and a chop stick, --- Tucked and trained TKO a bit more. - [16:34]: Alright! The canopy is nice and even! --- Will continue to re-direct growth to the back right quadrant of the tent. --- Wow!

If you are lonely when you are alone, then you are in bad company. Bee pollen is considered a “vitamin bomb” due to the presence of almost all vitamins with an average of 0.02–0.7% of its total content, with a higher amount of water-soluble than fat-soluble vitamins. Bee pollen contains vitamins A, D, E, B1, B2, B6, and C. It also provides minerals such as calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, zinc, copper, manganese, iron, and selenium, I mixed a bunch of that with some honey and RAW cane molasses to make a nice big bucket of tea. A family friend who is a beekeeper was kind enough to share some honey. The nutritional content of raw honey is impressive and includes high levels of protein, amino acids, B vitamins, calcium, manganese, potassium, magnesium, zinc, and iron, as well as various polyphenolic antioxidants. I am loading up nature's finest sugars, and sweet things, Honey & Mollases. UV-B-induced DNA damage (CPDs and 6–4 PPs) can be repaired efficiently by photolyases. Pyrimidine dimers can be repaired by nucleotide excision repair (NER), or bypassed by replicative polymerases (Britt 2004). The expression of the CPD photolyase (PHR) gene is induced by UV-B light dependent on UVR8 signaling pathway, and is also induced by blue and UV-A light (Li et al. 2015) https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s44154-022-00076-9?fromPaywallRec=true Old but gold. The camera picks up far more light than there is during the night cycle, camera is showing bright pink violet collages but my eyes barely see a thing, about 0.25ppfd in that tent overnight. Have been tweaking the spectrum of moonlight/intensity and watching the responses overnight. Tweak, tweak, tweak all week. PAR is 400-700nm, Overnight UVA in the tent is all 365nm and 385nm, so the meter only picks up a fraction of the light curve that makes it photosynthetically active past 400nm. Of the light in the tent, 0.25ppfd is from UVA Looks like It makes them 🕺 🕺 💃 all night. Better flower soon or ill be screwed for space, they are stretching, but is it "the stretch"? She has fire in her belly. Growing crops with insufficient light (i.e., below “optimal,” as defined here) limits the yield potential, which in turn wastes the other production inputs including labour, water, nutrients and electricity. As lighting fixture is one of the most expensive investment of the production, what is the relationship between light intensity and yield? Potter and Duncombe (2012) grew cannabis plants with varying canopy-level PPFDs during the flowering stage and found that increasing PPFD from 400 to 900 μmol·m−2·s−1 increased yield an average of 1.3 times higher, across seven cultivars, with no light intensity treatment effects on floral cannabinoid concentrations. Vanhove et al. (2011) found that cannabis yields were 1.3 to 3.1 times higher (depending on cultivar) when plants were grown under approximately 1000 μmol·m−2·s−1 compared to approximately 450 μmol·m−2·s−1 during the flowering stage.It was predicted that cannabis yield would exhibit a saturating response to increasing Light intensity, thereby signifying an optimum light intensity range for indoor cannabis production. However, a new research from Morrison (2021), after 81 days‘ experiment, found that When plants grew under LI ranging from 1200 to 1800 μmol·m–2·s–1 provided by light emitting diodes (LEDs), inflorescence yield increased linearly as LI increased up to 1800 μmol·m–2·s–1. "Cannabis will not stop flowering if the lights are turned on for a few minutes once or twice during the 2-month-long flowering cycle. If a light is turned on for 5 to 30 minutes—long enough to disrupt the dark period—on 3 to 5 con­secutive nights, plants will start to revert to vegetative growth." "Less than one half of one foot-candle of light (0.1ppfd) from sunlight will prevent cannabis from flow­ering. That is a little more light than is reflected by a full moon on a clear night. Well-bred indica-dominant plants will revert within three days. Sativa-dominant plants take four to five days to revert to vegetative growth. Once they start to revegetate, it can take from four to six ad­ditional weeks to induce flowering again!" Guess ill find out my answer soon.

All the plants seem to be developing well going into the later stage of flower. Some signs of possible deficiencies and nutrient burn on a few leafs but not too many. The smell again is increasing more and more to a sweet one. More defoliation and the use of sticks for more coverage. Light still set at 90% ✌️☘️🌱

The tale of one strain but two different grows. Plant a is looking she she is ready to be harvested. I'm going to give her another week or two just to get the tricone a little more amber about less then 5% Plant b is looks healthy and is getting thick I am probably going to give it another 3 week cause alot of tricones are not cloudy about 50 to 60% is cloudy will wait till 90-100% is cloudy

Some explosive growth This week. She has calmed down on the drinking a little. The ph has stayed pretty level between 5.6 to 5.8 all week. Pistols are really starting to make an appearance. This will be the last week she gets the transition set of nutrients. I added another 450w viparspectra for flower. Sorry about some of the darker pics I got home right as the lights went out tonight. The smell is still light not heavy at all. She filled the scrog well. I am so surprised at how well this plant is doing now it’s like nothing ever happened. Plant got about 17 hours of dark yesterday do to my power going out cause someone hit a telephone pole in the neighborhood..... back on schedule today and we are at day 13 of flip. According to breeder we have about 8 more weeks to go. I’m no expert but I think she is done stretching (i think)..... I can say as a beginner grower this is an excellent strain so far for my level of experience. Been a little cold at night here but so far no issues

These girls are in full flower in week 5. They stayed the typical size of an auto. The two were seperated in anticipation but clearly it may have been unnecessary

It looks to me like GSC1 it right on schedule and will finish up in about 2 more weeks. I just hope the nutrient burn doesn't effect the yield too much
