Hello Growmies, In the fifth week of vegetative growth, our Epic Buzz by Anesia is coming into its own within the controlled environment of the Tent-X challenge. The latest photograph reveals a lush canopy of green, with plants exhibiting robust health following topping and defoliation. Remarkably, the plants have sailed through these interventions without displaying signs of stress, a testament to their resilience and our attentive cultivation practices. Each Epic Buzz plant now boasts a minimum of six nodes, some even presenting with eight—a clear sign of their readiness for substantial vegetative expansion. The application of 1 liter of a well-formulated nutrient solution, composed of Alga Grow, Sugar Royal, Power Roots, and Orca, on a tri-weekly schedule, is ensuring these plants are not wanting for nourishment. Turning to the Tent-X graphs, we observe a well-maintained VPD during the day, demonstrating that the controller is effectively managing the tent's climate to optimize plant transpiration and growth. However, the graphs also reveal a challenge with nighttime VPD management. The inability to maintain optimal VPD levels after lights off suggests the Smart Mars Hydro fan isn't adequately managing humidity levels during these crucial hours. This night-time dip in VPD is a concern, as it can lead to a less efficient gas exchange and potentially create an environment conducive to unwanted pathogens. The urgency to connect the Mars Hydro fan to the Tent-X system is underscored by this data, as doing so will likely resolve the humidity management issue and maintain a consistent VPD, crucial for the plants' overnight health and vigor. Aside from this, the daytime VPD control is commendable, with the Tent-X system keeping parameters within the target range, ensuring the plants' transpiration is at its peak efficiency for healthy growth. As we proceed, we'll keep a close eye on the environmental controls, particularly the humidity levels during the night. The integration of the Mars Hydro fan into the Tent-X system will be a critical step in achieving the perfect grow environment for our Epic Buzz, fostering conditions that support robust growth around the clock.

Hello Growmies, As we observe the thriving state of our Red Banana Pudding by Anesia at week five of vegetation, it's a verdant testament to the power of precision growing. The latest image from our tent reveals plants that are the epitome of health—leaves splayed wide in a display of lush vigor, stems erect and strong, signifying the exceptional care they've received. These plants have been nurtured in an environment that mirrors the ideal conditions we've achieved with our Epic Buzz. The air-pots are fostering extensive root development, evident in the pronounced growth and stability of each plant. The topping and defoliation process has been met with a positive response, with no discernible signs of stress—instead, what we see is a uniform canopy that promises an even light distribution for the blooms to come. The nutrient solution, rich with Alga Grow, Sugar Royal, Power Roots, and Orca, is being administered on a three-day cycle and the plants are drinking it up with visible enthusiasm. This careful balance of feeding and watering is clearly contributing to the robust stature of each specimen in our Red Banana Pudding cohort. Our environmental control continues to be a focus, especially as we pinpoint the challenge of maintaining VPD during the night. The graph analysis from the Tent-X system indicates that while daytime VPD is kept in check, there is room for improvement when the lights go out. This mirrors the situation with the Epic Buzz, where we've identified a need to enhance the integration of our systems to better manage humidity and VPD 24/7. The forthcoming integration of the Mars Hydro fan into the Tent-X system is anticipated to resolve our nighttime VPD management, ensuring our Red Banana Pudding plants receive the same level of environmental precision they enjoy during daylight hours. With their current robust growth and our proactive approach to environmental management, the Red Banana Pudding plants are well on their way to a successful flowering stage, and we're poised to make any adjustments necessary to maintain their exceptional progress.

What a week!! I am going to do some tie downs and put up the net today or tomorrow. I also flipped it to 12-12 today. Flower time! Ok so I had the lights way to close. I raised it up at least another 12" and also turned it down to 65%. Everyday I raised it a little more and kept seeing an improvement. I only saw signs of light burn not heat burn. I guess this light has some power! My smart plug says it's running at 660w now. Can't wait to see the flowers in about a month!!! Let's

Hello Growmies, Week 5 of the G.M.O. grow is upon us, and the ladies are showing their distinct personalities. The tallest plant is now 25 cm, standing proud with a robust stem and that characteristic wide-leaf structure. She's been topped and is bushing out beautifully with 6-8 nodes left to flourish. The second plant, a bit shy at 18 cm, has not been topped yet. She's a testament to the variability of cannabis, as sometimes not all plants align with our schedules. Her smaller stature doesn't mean she won't catch up, but for now, she remains untouched, a potential natural beauty amongst her pruned siblings. Looking at the images, it's clear that the topping has encouraged a fuller canopy in the larger plant. The coloration is deep green, indicating a healthy nitrogen uptake, and the internodal spacing is tight, suggesting good light penetration and strong vegetative growth. The smaller plant, while not topped, has a vibrant color and a vitality that can't be overlooked. With no Tent-X controller in this environment, it's a more hands-on approach, but these G.M.O. girls are thriving under the attentive care they're receiving. Every three days, they've been sipping on a cocktail of Alga Grow, Sugar Royal, Power Roots, and Orca, ensuring their nutritional needs are fully met. This consistent feeding regimen across the grow is paying off with vigorous growth and the promise of an exceptional flowering phase. Stay lifted, Salokin

Hello Growmies, Week 3 with the Purple Lemonade FF is underway, and these young ones are showing their vigor despite being a couple of weeks behind the others. Standing at a humble 12-15 cm, they're not as tall as their garden mates but are flourishing with that same zest for life. Purple Lemonade #2, at 22 days old, is basking in the ambient light, her leaves fanning out in a healthy display of green. She's not quite reached the towering heights of her peers but is on track with robust growth. Purple Lemonade #1, one day her senior, mirrors this healthy progression, her symmetry and color telling tales of good genetics and a nurturing environment. Their feeding regime remains consistent with the rest of the pack – a balanced diet of Alga Grow, Sugar Royal, Power Roots, and Orca. These supplements are doing wonders, nurturing the plants from the root up, ensuring each leaf and stem is drenched in the nutrients needed for optimal growth. While they're smaller due to their age, the photos attest to their health: deep green leaves, sturdy stems, and an even development that speaks of potential yet to be realized. They've got the same sparkle in their leaves as the rest of the setup, and I'm eager to see how they'll catch up in the coming weeks. Stay lifted, Salokin

Hello Growmies, Week 12 with our Epic Buzz is showing us just how remarkable this plant truly is. The development has been nothing short of amazing, and there's an electric sense of anticipation for what's to come, not only with this beauty but also with the future Epic Buzz cultivars. The plant has fully embraced its flowering stage, with the buds stretching along the colas and starting to display a frosty coat of trichomes. These sticky crystals are not just limited to the buds; some of the larger fan leaves are getting their share of the sparkle too. The buds themselves are clustering so tightly around the colas that they're beginning to fill in the gaps, giving rise to the hope that they might just form those perfect, gapless spears we all aim for. Observing the plant, we see a thriving, verdant structure; a tapestry of green that stands tall and proud under the glow of the grow lights. The canopy is dense, the stems are sturdy, and the overall health of the plant is exemplified by the vibrancy of its leaves and the rapid development of its buds. The setup, with its careful arrangement of lights and ventilation, creates an ideal micro-environment for growth—a harmonious space where Epic Buzz can express its genetic potential to the fullest. Each picture is a snapshot of a different angle, revealing the uniformity of the growth and the care that's been put into maintaining such a healthy grow. The close-ups of the buds show the trichomes starting to build up, hinting at the potency and flavor that await. It’s clear that the Epic Buzz is on a stellar path, and with the diligent care, it’s receiving—regular feedings, reservoir top-ups to prevent any more lockouts, and the optimal light schedule—it's all set to continue on this trajectory. Stay Lifted, Salokin
