-----IMAGES & VIDEOS-----
V1 - Transplanting day. I'm using 10 l Aeropots as final recipient. I've used:
- Small layer of ATAMI HydroRokz (perlite) at the bottom of the pot, just for cover bottom holes and to retain a bit of humidity
- Over the perlite i placed 1l of mixture with BioBizz "All Mix" and Volcanic Soil
- Again over, 1l of mixture with BioBizz "Light Mix" + Volcanic Soil & Guano
- And filled the rest with BioBizz "Light Mix" + Volcanic Soil
It's the second time that i broke half of the roots of a plant doing a transplant, It happened to me just for not being careful enough to hold the soil by the lower part. While this is no good, no further signs of that mistake other than the recorded video ;).
V2 - Quick show up on how to correct the color of photos taken under red/ping/purple light.
First I merge the HDR image from 3 bracketed shots, then I apply my custom color adjustment in the HDR resulting image.
As i show in the video, to correct the red light, you have to enhance the blue and green curves, just play with a point in the curves until you find the best adjustment for each of both curves. Then you should go to tones, and play a bit with reds, pinks & purples... and.... Voilá, you can see the results, easy and effective..... but no more easy than using the right white spectrum.

P7 - Volcanic soil and Guano
-----WEEK SUMMARY-----
This week was very easy, i didn't do anything to these babies apart from the transplant. This is the first time im mixing something with the soil, I hope not to overfeed the Cookies with the nutes, as i'm going to use the same nutrients i was using.
The first 10 days they were growing in my 60x60x40 tent (DP60), with a terrible chinese light that i always use the first week wen I plant.
PandaGrow 100W (50W draw) - http://www.pdgrow.com/index.php?m=Show&a=index&cid=12&id=53
So after transplanting when i place the plans under the Quantum Board or the Platinum LED, i've notice it on them immediately, they really don't like this kind of chinese lights.
Thus after the transplant the plants has started to grow and wide much more and much quickly.
-----WATERING CALENDAR-----
12/09/19 DAY 11 - 1,5 l after transplant with all week nutrients @ 0.8 EC & PH5.8
*****ESPAÑOL*****
-----IMÁGENES & VÍDEOS-----
V1 - Día de transplante. Transplantaré a AeroPots de 10 l. Para el transplante he usado:
- Una capa pequeña de ATAMI HydroRokz (perlita) en el fondo de los tiestos, sólo para cubrir los agujeros y retener un pelín de humedad.
- Encima de la perlita he puesto 1 l de mezcla de BioBizz "All-Mix" con tierra volcánica
- De nuevo encima he puesto otro litro de mezcla de BioBizz "Light-Mix" con guano y tierra volcánica
- El resto está relleno con una mezcla de BioBizz "Light-Mix" con tierra volcánica
Es la segunda vez que se me parter unas raíces por la mitad en un transplante, eso me pasa por no ser lo suficientemente cuidadoso como para agarrar el sustrato por su parte baja. Esto no es algo bueno, pero he de admitir que aparte del mal rato de que se te partan las raíces, a la planta no le sucede nada de nada, sigue creciendo al mismo ritmo que su hermana.
V2 - Un ejemplo rápido de como corregir la iluminación de una foto tomada bajo un espectro rosado o rojizo
En el vídeo primero compilo el HDR compuesto de 3 fotografías horquilladas y una vez compilado le aplico mi ajuste de color.
Como muestro en el vídeo, para corregir este tipo de luces hay que realzar las curvas de color azul y verde, simplemente con un punto por encima de la mitad de la línea media hasta encontrar los puntos más adecuados para tu luz. una vez encontrados, sólo hay que ir a los tonos y ajustar un poquito el rojo, rosa y morado.

P7 - Tierra volcánica y Guano
-----SUMARIO SEMANAL-----
Esta semana ha sido muy sencilla, no les he hecho absolutamente nada a las pequeñas a parte del transplante. Esta es la primera vez que mezclo algo con el sustrato y espero no sobrealimentar las cookies ya que voy a seguir usando los mismos nutrientes que he usado con anterioridad y de la misma manera.
Los primeros 10 días han crecido en mi tienda de 60x60x40 (DP60), con una luz china terrible:
PandaGrow 100W (50W draw) - http://www.pdgrow.com/index.php?m=Show&a=index&cid=12&id=53
Siempre uso esa luz los primeros días de cada cultivo, por lo que al cambiarlas a la Quantum o al Platinum LED lo noto al toque, realmente no les gusta nada la luz china esa, inmediatamente se ponen a crecer y ensanchar mucho mas.

Aug 2: Tropicana Cookies FF is three weeks younger than my two biggest plants (Sunday Punch EV and Mimosa Shot) and two weeks younger than Lemon Cream Kush. This is a very strong plant and is progressing very well.
This wagon with LCK started force flowering a week later than the other wagon and will go another week longer.
TC is now the tallest of the four plants despite being the youngest.
Aug 5: now done force flowering after 2.5 weeks. Plants in this wagon are getting too big to easily get into garage. Continuing to use far red light as a bloom booster at dusk. Back to 15.5 h of daylight in the backyard now.

Welcome to week 10 / week 7 of flowering!
Seeing more amber trichomes, but still holding out until I see approximately 50% amber. Getting closer!
✅Day 64: 100oz of water. No runoff.
✅Day 65: No water.
✅Day 66: No water.
✅Day 67: 100oz of water. No runoff.
✅Day 68: No water.
✅Day 69: I was spot checking trichomes and noticed what appeared to be seeds beginning to form in the buds. I couldn’t tell for sure. They were hard and small balls, but they broke apart somewhat easily when I squeezed them in-between my nails. I don’t know if they were young seeds or new calyxes and maybe the hard ball was the pistils inside that hadn’t grown out yet. It was hard to tell, but I didn’t want to risk it if she was starting to herm, so I chopped her down.

Good morning growmies! I am finally back online after moving house and being without internet for weeks.
These ladies took a battering and bruising in transit, and were left in the dark for 4 days, starved of water and food for 9 days TWICE inside 3 weeks.
Still, can you believe the progress despite all that? Wowza, when RQS say these Epsilon F1s are fast they are NOT JOKING, and OH MY the smell is soooooooooooooooooo good. It's really a complex sweet and fruity scent with delicate notes of spice and sandalwood. I am super curious now. All five plants are within a couple of inches of each other, the tallest being 72cm currently (Dinah!).
I am so very impressed with these plants that I am considering running a full tent of Epsilon F1s for my next grow! I wonder if I can get a bulk discount?! 😬😁
Day 54: Fertigated 10l
Day 56: They are not slowing down. Ally, Normani, Lauren, and Dinah are all similar size, Camila is a bit smaller but in terms of development they are all very very close to each other. I am really impressed by the uniformity here, more impressed by the speed, and most impressed by the scent. They are not strong smelling, but if you get close or have a squeeze it wafts over you like an exquisite perfume. It is the most complex cannabis scent I have experienced yet. Really really interesting, I am really excited for the eventual smoke review so that I can properly understand the complexity at play here. The breeder and sponsor of this grow Royal Queen Seeds have offered to sponsor a full tent of this strain, if that works out then I will be doing another grow series right after this one. Fingers crossed!

Here we go... week 2!
Everything went pretty smoothly during germination and week 1.
I'm starting to think about nutrients, as i do plan to start feeding, VERY lightly, sometime this coming week. I figure my soil should probably be okay for 3-4 weeks but i'm going to be feeding only 2 of the 3 plants starting in week 2. I'll start feeding the 3rd plant in week 3. I want to see if there's any difference or problems that arise.
Day 8:
- Temp: 74-80F
- RH: 68-71%
- no water, reduced exhaust fan speed to 10% at night due to colder outdoor temperature.
Day 9:
- Temp: 72F-79F
- RH: 62-69%
- lightly watered with de-chlorinated tap water
Day 10:
I've now desgnated the plants as "L-1", "L-2" and "L-3", based on their germination and seedling stage growth, with "L-1" being the most vigorous.
- Temp: 72-76F
- RH: 65-68%
- Lightly watered "L-2" and "L-3" with a very weak nutrient mixture using Remo Nutrients' "Micro", "Grow", "Velokelp" and "MagNifiCal".
Remo's feeding chart recommends 6ml/gal for week 2.
I used .5ml/.5gal... 1/6th the recommended dose.
- "L-1" was watered with just dechlorinated tap water.
- Both adjusted to pH6.5
Day 11:
- Temp: 69-76F
- RH: 62-68%
- No water
- added sticky traps for fungus gnats, which have afflicted one of my girlfriend's orchids in our house. We've quarantined the orchid and will be giving our houseplants a few doses of BTI.
Crossing my fingers that they don't cause me any issues in the tent!
Day 12:
- no signs of fungus gnats in tent
- Temp: 69-77F
- RH: 62-68%
- No water
Day 13:
- no signs of fungus gnats in tent
- turned humidifier off
- ambient RH is about 60%
- Temp: 69-77F
- noticing leaf edges curling. Possibly due to high RH and/or over-watering.
- Calibrated pH meter. Was off by +0.3 pH.
- Watered lightly with pH adjusted tap water @ 6.4pH
Day 14:
- No water
- Replaced the 24" Sunblaster T5HO fixture with a 24" Sunblaster LED, which now makes two of them.
I plan on switching the 6400K T5 bulb with a 2700K bulb in the T5HO fixture.
Once flowering starts, I'll pull out the two 6400K LED fixtures and put in the 2700K T5 fixtures (I still need to pick up one more T5 fixture so that i have two, which i'll be placing at either end of my 2x4 tent as supplemental lighting).
- Distance to canopy (24w Sunblaster LED): 12"
- Distance to canopy (HLG Elite 360): 24"
- Elite 360 Light Intensity: 35%

Experiencia: Acredito que cometi algumas falhas que diminuiram a renda total, mas a brisa e o sabor foi uma das minhas melhores experiencias. Esse foi o meu primeiro cultivo indoor, havia tentado cultivar apenas uma vez no outdoor uma pineaple que foi boa, porém rendeu muito pouco e sem comparações com a gorilla glue. No segundo Ciclo estou iniciando a GMO da BSF, agradeço a todos pela visita.

We’ve reached the final week before harvest. Most of the plants are already ready for root flushing or do it. I’ll do it in batches since humidity levels are a bit tricky. I flush the roots with plain water first and then add several liters with Final Flush to see if it leaves any effect on the flavor. I’m still applying a preventive fungicide foliarly. They’ve developed some great main buds, and I’m really looking forward to trying them.

second week of flowering done. They were stretching like crazy. Installed a 3rd net to keep the stretch under control. Jumped from 35 cm to 83 cm in 2 weeks. They giving me some headache because of the hight. Should have send them 1 or 2 weeks earlier into flower. But it’s a lesson how to handle or not handle hybrids and sativas.
Over all in was quite relaxing just adding water/ nutrients and doing some defoliation.
So far so good. it’s quite easy to keep them on the same level with 3 nets.
Still learning how to handle certain situations and conditions. But so far I am happy. They have got a massive need of Kalium at the moment. Should have given them more TA -Grow nutrients. But that’s party of learning.
Really happy about the aeroponic setup. Really like the full control of the grow medium. (Compared to soil it’s easier for control freaks). Really water efficient compared to dwc/hydro/soil and changes made take effect pretty fast. Really nice oxygen supply at the roots and overall nice control possibilities regarding to roots and medium/solution.
A possible downside could be that u can only use mineral nutrients and no organic nutrients. (We want some bacteria and fungus but not these ones that break down organic nutrients. That is more a preference thing than anything else. Good made hydro can compete with soil easily but most ppl put to much in there and ruin it any way. (Don’t want to trigger its good that everyone got its own style and evolves it in his needs and conditions.)
The maintenance effort that is required for aero is a bit higher than soil and dwc but it pays off. (Personal opinion but numbers proof it)
Looking forward to the next weeks and flower build up. Really excited about.

Light fluffy bud, but so much of it that weight got up there in the end.
Really soft smoke with some earthy textures and tastes. Less sweet smelling than the previous haze but has a lot more earthy, baking smell to it this one.

I didn't give this one much attention,i must say. After a boerboel pup developed a taste for dank bud he decided to munch on a few of the storks🤣and with her doing better from the heat stress,i hope she puts out a bit more. Week 6 done,kept the ec @1550..+- 775ppm and ph @ 6.5 for this week.

My first seed didn't make it due to technical difficulties, so I popped another to try to maximize the output from the mini machine. She is growing well at day 7. Seeing some leaf curling from her adjusting to the environment, but she is still showing steady growth. She is a week behind the 2 plants that were originally germinated. She will be topped around day 10 or 12 as soon as the third node comes up enough to pinch off.
I started this setup to compete in the solo cup challenge, but I needed something that will be minimal maintainence and doesn't require hand watering. So this is what I ended up with. I will not be entering since I know it will bring controversy, but I am going to follow the rules and treat this grow as if I am competing.
I didn't want to use regular solo cups because last time I had a lot of algae growing in the root zone when I harvested. I opted to use a black light proof cup. These cups were 27 oz originally so I filled them with 16 oz of water, marked the level, then cut them down to 16 oz. I set the drain pipes about an inch from the bottom so they have a little reserve if I have pump or power issues. I know people will see the drains as a way for roots to grow out of the cup but in reality I have to keep the entire pipe free of roots or it will clog and overflow. So I am actually losing a little volume due to this.
I filled the bottom inch or so of the cups with river gravel to stop the perlite from washing into the reservoir.
I am running a 5 gallon reservoir with a small air pump and the plants will be getting irrigated 24 hours a day from an aquarium power head pump. I set the system up to be totally self contained and easily portable. It was all built from things I had laying around other than 97¢ for the cups. I will be keeping the feed simple as always feeding maxigro and maxibloom with a couple flower boosters.
