🌱 GrowDiaries Log – Day 9 FERMAKOR BASE SYSTEM – KOH VERSION ⚓ (Batch #1) Good morning growmies ☀️ One week in, the bucket looks nothing like scraps anymore. Breakdown has been quick and thorough — almost everything is liquid now, with just a few stubborn bits hanging on. Observations (Day 9): Foam: barely any, just a thin layer here and there — never really foamed big. Smell: nastier than Day 2, ammonia/chemical with a faint earthy undertone. Texture: 95% liquid, only tiny clumps left dissolving slowly. Color: darker and more uniform, looking like a concentrated base already. ⚠️ Safety note: Still caustic, still burns instantly — full gear needed for handling. 🌱 Reflection: Honestly impressive how fast KOH stripped everything down. No real foaming storm, just a steady chew through biomass until it turned into this dark liquid. I’ll give it another 3–4 days and see if those last solids are gone completely before calling this first batch finished.

"Hi, I received my pH meter this week, so from week 6 onwards, I'm aiming for a pH value of 6.0 - 6.5. This week, I noticed that the plant in the small pot received too much fertilizer. The other two 7.5-liter fabric pots also received double the recommended amount according to the feeding schedule, but they don't show any signs of over-fertilization."

Another steady week! Some serious development of the terps is in the air! 😝 Again some good growth both vertically and filling out the canopy. Bud sites are popping up here and there which pleases me as it’s turning out great for my first effort with scrog and LST! I swapped out the Bestiva LED for a 150watt HID Mh lamp. Really considering putting in a 600watt for the last few weeks, what’s your opinions!?? As always, tips and criticism all welcome guys and gals! Much love to you all and all the best with your own grows 👌👍✌️🌱😎

2018-04-03 Week 14 Day 1 Not much to say, there isn't much drama going on in growroom 2, the only things I do is giving them water and nutes 2 - 3 times/week and making sure that the lamp don't burn the girls. I gave them 4 liters today, and since they live in smartpots I can see when the pot gets wet when watering the girls, but you could hardly notice that. They are getting thirsty 😛 The flowers are developing very good, they look really healthy and their colors are fine. Power Plant XL nr 1 is 67 cm Power Plant XL nr 2 is 66 cm 2018-04-04 Raised the lamp to it’s highest level and turned all girls 1/4 turn, it’s really hard to get in to the ladies in the back, I need to push the girls up against the walls on each side and crawl on the floor to be able to turn them and give them water/nutes. Damn these plants, why do they have to grow and become so BIG?! 😆💪 Added a new video, enjoy my SoG 😄 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Strain information Genetics for the famous Power Plant were captured by a group of Dutch growers on a trip to South Africa, back in the 90’s. They managed to breed a strain that was soon a popular choice in coffee shops of the Netherlands, most likely due to the soaring and intense Sativa high. Zambeza Seeds thought that the productiveness of Power Plant should never be forgotten and created an updated version, to bring the legend back to live. Power Plant XL yields up to 600-750g/m² in a flowering period of approximately 55 days! The efficiency and productiveness of Power Plant XL fears no comparison with many recently bred cannabis strains. Indoor heights of 80-110cm make this sativa-dominant variety relatively easy to grow, but outdoor growers need to be aware of the power that is being released under the sun. Outdoor plants can easily reach heights of 150-200cm, and yields of 500-600g per plant. The taste of Power Plant XL can be described as a delightful blend of sweet and sour flavours, with subtle hints of pine tree in the background. Smokers who appreciate a very strong and uplifting Sativa high will be more than satisfied with the effects. One will experience feelings of euphoria that are definitely intense and uplifting, typical for a South African Sativa like this. The up-high can also evolve into being more relaxed, especially when larger quantities are being consumed. Some people suspect Power Plant to be grown in large commercial operations around the world. It doesn’t really matter if these assumptions are the truth or myths, but Zambeza’s breeders are very proud to bring this highly productive legend back to live. The updated version of it, Power Plant XL, is the most efficient Dutch "bud factory" money can buy. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I consider this the last week of veg, some might call it the first week of flower. But she looks great what ever you want to call it. I continue to be impressed with Seedsman strains. I'll be growing more from Seedsman in the future! 👍

I've moved the two healthiest in new 25L (6 Gal) net pot, it's going to be easier to apply the LST, without damage the plant. Anyway, LST is working well, main branches are getting "fatter", leaves are big and they show a nice healthy green color. I start to give some NPK, I still have some Advanced Nutrients to use. Using for now at 1 ml/L , resulting in a EC of 0.8. I still have nutes inside the soil, I have to go little by little for now. I will keep you updated folks! Have a wonderful week!

The aromas are starting to show themselves. I can’t even begin to describe them. Give me a couple more days and I’ll come up with my best educated answer. Thanks for checking out my grow series. Only about 4 more weeks before the harvest. Beyond excited.

Apolo F1 Mission Diary - Week 4: The Symphony of Growth Continues! Greetings, fellow cultivators and stewards of the green kingdom! Week 4 of our Apolo F1's journey has unfolded with a crescendo of growth, as we continue to shape this botanical masterpiece. Join me as we explore the ongoing ballet of bending, leaf manipulation, and the new addition – topping! Our Apolo F1 has truly become a prima ballerina in the art of controlled chaos. The mainlining technique continues to guide the branches into a dance of elegance and efficiency. Each bend and twist is a stroke on the canvas of growth, ensuring even light distribution and robust development. It's like watching nature paint its own masterpiece! Leaf manipulation adds an extra layer to our botanical canvas. Gently coaxing the leaves to bend and expose more surface area to light is like unlocking the full potential of each leaf. The result? A foliage symphony that's not only beautiful but also optimized for photosynthesis. Our Apolo F1 is not just growing; she's composing a green opus! In a bold move, I've decided to top our flourishing Apolo F1. Topping is like giving her a stylish haircut, redirecting the energy to create multiple colas and enhance bushiness. It's a calculated risk, and judging by the vibrant response so far, our green virtuoso is ready to embrace the challenge. The stage is set for a richer, more complex growth performance! The nutrient-rich serenade persists with a TDS of 390 ppm and a pH of 6.0, ensuring our Apolo F1 has a nutrient banquet at her disposal. The temperature remains a cozy 20 degrees Celsius, providing the ideal backdrop for this botanical performance. Beneath the soil surface, the root rhapsody continues. Roots are not just anchors; they're the silent applauders to our botanical spectacle. Their dance beneath the surface ensures our Apolo F1 remains anchored and well-nourished. As always, a heartfelt thank you to Aptus Holland for crafting the nutrient symphony that fuels our green odyssey, and to Royal Queen Seeds for gifting us the botanical star of this vibrant show. Join me in the next chapter of our Apolo F1 Mission Diary, where we'll witness the continued symphony of growth and the unfolding drama of a topped and trained botanical virtuoso! Until then, may your gardens flourish and your green endeavors be evergreen! As always thank you all for stopping by and for supporting me on this journey, i am super passion about growing and fell blessed to have you all with me on this new journey

The plants finally made it out to the garden. They don't look the greatest because of the stress from getting them out there and transplanted, but it's finally done! I made a video to go over almost everything, but I do want to say I didn't mention that I also mixed about 5-10% Biochar in with the Fox Farm potting soil. Also, the Agribon row cover will protect against pests as well.

What an explosion in growth for week 5. Every day this plant is growing like crazy. Had to trim up some lower foliage to allow better airflow. Tied down some more branches to even the canopy especially the main stem. Rubbing the stem gives an amazing smell and can’t wait till it matures fully. Looking like this plant will be a great yield of everything keeps rocking like it has. I’m feeding a worm castings compost tea spiked with Cultured Biologix EZ Tea Bloom to feed the microbes in the soil that are essential for trichome production. Also started feeding silicon to strengthen the stems and Trichomes. Week 6 is going to be nuts with growth I can already tell.

So had a 100 percent germination rate! Woot woot! Transfered the girls the dome da dome dome dome, added a cap of water to each. Frustrated with amazon , my T4 pro inline fan by AC Infinity was supposed to be here yesterday , but some how the order was canceled last night so I gotta wait a few days for the money to be refunded to try to order again , still got a 75 cfm fan pumping air in and a 100cfm fan pulling air out it'll work for now. also it was 48 degrees F last night so I broke out a space heater on low to keep it around 78.6 . Loving these girls already and we've only just met ! ❤️
