Hey now! This week went pretty well, I did notice my EC of my runoff was getting pretty high on day 65, it got up to about 1.9, and my nutrient solution going in was at 1.6. I ended up mixing a bucket of my normal fertilizer, and hand watering all the places my drip ring wasn't really hitting, and i got the EC back down to about 1.7. I also got a tip from MrJones to setup some type of support for the colas. I ended up tying some 550 (parachute) cord across the top of my tent poles, then I ties little loops around the colas with the same soft cord. I then used wire ties to attach the loops to the 550 cord. I also am slowly reducing my EC, as I believe I only have a couple weeks left. I am also going to be switching from Liquid KoolBloom to Dry KoolBloom at some point later in week 10. If anyone has any experience on the correct timing of this switch to ripening formula, please hit me up! I am still struggling a bit with heat and humidity, and am considering buying another dehumidifier for my next grow. As always, Thank you to everyone for all of your encouragement, support and tips!! Blaze on!

Another week closer.... These girls have been a pleasure to grow so far they love everything you can give them ...no deficiencies no problems.....earlier in the week a slight tip burn but after 2 days they adjusted and ask for more.....as they are eating up the nutrients I am replacing and upping it each time...pushing these girls and they are showing there love....17 days since I switched the light and they are filling in nicely. Until next week, smoke a fatty, help out you're fellow grower

Cream Cookies is getting close to harvest. I did feed her again this week with Recharge only. Next weekend I plan on starting to flush. One of the lower side branches broke accidentally when I was moving things around in the tent. There were only a couple of small buds on the branch, but I dried it out to give her a taste. I can definitely taste the cream overtones, which is very nice. And I got a nice buzz off of it too. Really looking forward to the properly harvested and cured results! 👍

All started to flower and the stretch begins! Lost a few tops with training. I will opt for just topping instead of LST (too time consuming) Will start slowly dropping nitrogen and increase phosphorous and potassium with some molasses! Last two shots are of last bit of LST and leaf tucking/defoliating

È stato bello far crescere questa pianta e vedere tra le 8 piante tutte le sue sfumature, 2 di queste hanno sviluppato i pistilli rosa!!! Il profumo è buonissimo e uguale il sapore. Non sono un amante del cbd ma fumare queste cime ci si gode di più il suo gusto favoloso.

10/26: All but one are flowering now, and most are stretching. There are a few shorter ones, thankfully, so they'll get moved up to the top of the closet in another day or two and I'll have a little more room for the big girls to spread out a little bit. 10/27: I rearranged the garden a little bit today and checked whether they needed water or not. I foliar fed with Big Bloom and a little Tiger Bloom today. I'm seeing signs of potassium deficiency on several of them. 10/28: I watered everybody with about 1/4 gallon and included a little terpinator, cal-mag, bembe, and beastie bloomz. I uploaded a couple of photos showing some weird curling of the newest growth...just an odd varietal trait I think because I've seen it before on my Candy Cane F2's. 10/29: I rotated everybody on the edges and plucked some older, lower leaves. They are damn near totally dry, so flushing tomorrow. 10/30: I decided not to flush based partly on how shitty the weather is right now...and partly because I'm seeing some N deficiency signs in several plants and really can't afford to put off feeding them again until they dry after a 3-gallon flush. So, instead, I thoroughly watered everybody with about 3/4 gallon including cal-mag, myco/tricho, beneficial bacteria, humic acid, bembe, and terpinator. I let them sit in their catchment trays long enough to soak all the run-off back up, so they are fairly well saturated now with things that should make the roots really happy. I've added another oscillating fan and got the hygrostat set to kick on the exhaust whenever the humidity reaches 55%, so it's pretty much staying on right now. Hopefully they are dried back out by Friday so I can give them a last good dose of N to help with their stretch. I'll also start going heavy with P and K, and increase terpenoid and flavonoid enhancers. I'm gonna give Signal by True a try when I finish my current bottle of Terpinator. I just can't bring myself to keep paying over $60/gallon when I can get a gallon of Signal for under $40. While watering today, I emptied the closet completely and had plants all over the place...my cats were in heaven..stalking each other under the jungle canopy.😺 It really does amaze me that I'm fitting all these plants into such a small space..😳 10/31: I rotated the edge plants and checked their moisture level. I'll feed them tomorrow. 11/1: I took everybody out of the closet and did a little defoliating. I fed everybody with about a half-gallon including all the good stuff.

Day 50: Feeding today with a huge shot of Ignite to finish this bloom.....Gonna start going into Overdrive more for about a week before getting ready for flush. My Hellfire OG is beautiful! The buds are so thick and the leaves are sharp. Love the way it looks and have not done much defoliation as the green cracks. With this final ignite feeding, hoping to get my bud locations on the GC. It's a tall plant and the three I have are all about the same with one a bit slow. More to come but hoping to wrap this grow up in the next months and get the Halloween Grow. A bit spooky!!! So it's about 3ish and I'm just staring @ my video feed of my babies! Getting some really huge nuggets sized buds and when I defoliate my hands are a bit sticky afterwards. Cutting some of the lower branches they ozze the carboload and I smile like Pedro'!! Day 51: was suppose to feed but kind of forgot so gonna maybe throw some voodo tab in some water and just let them drink and get some extra fat root development these last 3 weeks. On another note getting my ducks in a row for my next grow. Got a huge bag of Pro-mix HP on my doorstep this morning and my girl was like get your "shit" honey.....so holiday grow diary coming soon with all new strains!!! Day 52: Did a feed last night a few hours b4 lights out. Went with Ignite & O.D. Some of my plants are a ahead of others so figured both O.D. & Ignite. Developing crystals on the leave and making sure to cut the lower branches that are not going anywhere. Threw a picture of my cure set up along with some dealer weed. That is only a 10gram bag so trust me when I say, "this is a game changer!" Day 53: Early morning feeding and laying off the cal mag and senszym and just going with Iguana bloom, carbloader, ignite and OD along with Mikes OG, Bud Factor X. Noticing some of my plants are ahead of others so have been feeding a gallon per plant with adjusted nutrients to kind of match what my girls are doing. My Hellfires are so pretty and the leaf growth is pretty snarky. Just pointed leaves under the bud sight and the fans leave not really big so just trimming as we go. My Green Cracks are budding really nicely. The buds sights are kind of spread out but the buds are getting thicker and growing and filling the spaces. Maybe another 2 weeks before I start to flush and get ready for harvest.

We’re officially on the home stretch with the Papayton #3, and honestly, the view every time I open the tent is just insane. This phenotype has developed into a real "Dark Empress." The contrast between the deep, almost onyx-colored leaves and that thick, white blanket of frost is exactly what I was hoping for when I started this run. Looking at the buds today at Day 63, the density is incredible. The calyxes have swollen to the point where the stems have completely disappeared under a mountain of resin. I spent some time today removing the last few crispy fan leaves to make sure the airflow is spot on for these final days—especially after those 29°C peaks we had. Luckily, things have cooled down to a steady 26°C, which is perfect for preserving those loud, gassy, and sweet terpenes. Trichome-wise, she’s sitting at a perfect 100% milky state. I’ve spent a good amount of time with the loupe, and while amber is still rare—maybe around 2% on the actual calyxes—the sheer depth of the cloudiness tells me she’s right at her peak potency. I’m sticking to the plan: one very last small drink tomorrow to keep her from wilting, and then a slow dry-down leading up to the harvest on Friday or Saturday. It’s been a pleasure watching this organic Biotabs-fed lady finish so strong. Can't wait for the final weigh-in and the smoke test!

Mega Strain bin super happy 😊. Es läuft alles sehr gut ohne irgendwelche Probleme, muss so gut wie nichts machen 🤗. Die ersten Trichome sind auch schon Bernstein geworden und nach der Mary Jane wird auch geerntet und gewaschen. Leider habe ich es nicht mehr vorher geschafft.

1/12 4:14AM MONDAY!!!!!!!! CBG IS GOOD!1 LOWERD THE WATTAGE, EFFICIENCY IS GOOD. GREAT WHITE MYCO HAS INCREASED UPTAKE AND AND!!!! PHOTOSYNTHESIS EFFICIENCY ......FUCKING AWESOME 💪💪💪💪 1/12 4:47AM I asked GROK: are samsung leds on my mars hydro lights seem more efficient than the PPFD meter says, I lowered the lights again by a few watts? Yes, the **Samsung LM301H EVO diodes** in your Mars Hydro lights (likely an FC-E series like FC-E3000, FC-E4000, or similar) are among the most efficient horticultural LEDs available right now—individual diodes hit **3.14 μmol/J** efficacy, pushing the whole fixture to around **2.85–2.9 μmol/J** PPE (photosynthetic photon efficacy) in manufacturer specs and independent tests. That's top-tier for full-spectrum grow lights, meaning they convert more electrical power into usable plant photons than older diodes or cheaper LEDs. If they "seem more efficient than the PPFD meter says" (your plants thriving at lower wattage/height adjustments), that's actually common and not a contradiction—it's often the **real-world efficiency** shining through once nutes/stress are fixed. Here's why this happens and what your recent wattage drop (a few more watts lower) likely means: ### Why Samsung LM301H EVO Can "Seem" More Efficient Than Raw PPFD Readings Suggest - **High PPE + Uniform Distribution**: These diodes excel at producing photons in the PAR range (400–700nm) with minimal waste (heat/loss). Mars Hydro FC-EVOs achieve strong average PPFD (e.g., 750–1000+ μmol/m²/s in tests at recommended heights/power) with even spread—no hot spots wasting energy. When your nutes were suboptimal (Advanced Nutrients issues), plants couldn't fully use the light (wasted photons → stress, stretch, lower efficiency). Now dialed in (GH powder + aminos + mycos), they convert more of that PPFD into growth—making the light "feel" stronger/more efficient even if meter numbers stay the same or drop slightly. - **Meter Limitations & Calibration**: - Handheld PAR meters (especially cheap/older ones) can under-read full-spectrum LEDs like LM301H EVO (strong white + red enhancement). They often have poor spectral response to the exact mix, reading 10–30% low compared to pro tools (Apogee SQ-500) or calibrated apps. - If you're using an app like Photone (mentioned in your diary), it's generally more accurate for Samsung full-spectrum lights (especially on iPhone; Android varies but often close with diffuser/paper). Many growers report Photone matching or exceeding cheap handhelds on LM301H setups—sometimes showing higher effective PPFD than a basic meter implies. - Bottom line: Your plants are the ultimate meter. Thriving (miraculous growth, no burn/stress) at lower wattage means the effective usable PPFD is higher than a potentially under-reading meter suggests—efficiency win. ### Your Wattage Drop & What It Means Lowering by a few more watts (on top of the earlier ~10% drop) is smart and aligns with the efficiency gains: - Dimming on Mars Hydro FC series is **very linear**—tests show PPFD percentage tracks close to (or slightly above) the dimmer % because diodes run more efficiently at lower currents (less heat/loss). - Example: Dropping from 100% to 90% might only reduce PPFD by ~8–10%, not full 10%, due to that efficiency curve. - Your plants handling it (still "miraculously better") without stretch or pale leaves confirms the sweet spot: likely 450–650 μmol/m²/s veg/late veg range now, with room to push if pistils emerge. - Solar bonus: Every watt saved = less battery drain on cloudy days, cooler tent (less fan/AC draw), and more headroom for extra plants without spiking consumption. **Practical next steps**: - Recheck PPFD (if using Photone/handheld): Average multiple canopy spots at current height/power—aim 450–600 for late veg autos, 600–800 early flower. - Watch response: If nodes stay tight/dark green/no cupping, you can drop another 5% or lower height slightly for denser canopy. - Log kWh if your inverter shows it—track the drop to celebrate the savings. - If meter still "under-says" vs. plant performance, trust the plants more—Samsung EVOs are proven beasts when the rest of the grow is dialed. This is textbook optimization: nute fix → better photon use → lower power for same/better results → solar efficiency skyrockets. You're building a truly lean system. How low are you at now (e.g., 70–75W total?)? Any pistils or new growth explosions today? Keep the momentum—it's paying off big. 🥊🍌👨‍🔬🚨🌞 1/13/26 7:47AM BRUTAL WEEK FOR THE MOP AND BUCKET GUYS AT MUDRUROS COMPOUND 1/13, 11:22 AM banana purple punch auto RF three is doing really great. I haven’t really needed to do anything. I decided not to top. I didn’t want to do anything except light stress training. I think she’s gonna turn out just great. Her stock is one of the thickest.
