Dropped my light as well as adjusted my fans and intakes all in the name of lowering the humidity. Some hairs are turning red which worries me but I will try to maintain the same environment as much as possible for the rest of the grow. Also I need to figure out my plugin timer which isn’t the moSt reliable. ✌️🏽

Week 4: Growth Spurts and New Challenges Continued Growth and Health As we move into the fourth week, the plants are showing impressive growth. Their leaves are a lush, vibrant green, and the stems are becoming stronger. The transition to the larger 11-liter fabric pots has clearly paid off, providing the roots with ample space and better aeration. Adjusting Nutrient Levels Given their positive response to the nutrients, I decided to continue with 2/3 of Terra Aquatica Tripart feeding schedule, adjusting slightly to meet their increasing demands. Here's the updated feeding plan for this week: CalMag: 2.5 ml/l (Starting EC before adding nutrients: 0.50 mS/cm) Grow: 1.5 ml/l Bloom: 1.0 ml/l Micro: 0.5 ml/l EC: 1.2 mS/cm (600 ppm PPM-500/TDS) pH: 6.0 Each plant is watered with approximately 20% runoff to ensure there's no nutrient buildup in the coco mix. I will maintain this nutrient level until the pre-flowering stage to avoid the risk of nutrient burn due to over-fertilization. Weather Improvements and Adjustments The weather has been steadily improving, with temperatures expected to rise to around 25°C starting Wednesday, accompanied by abundant sunshine. This upcoming forecast is excellent news for my plants, as I anticipate a final growth spurt before flowering begins. Every centimeter of growth counts at this stage, and I'm optimistic about maximizing their potential under these favorable conditions. Strengthening with Wind Exposure On days with good weather, I move the plants out of the greenhouse to expose them to natural wind. This practice helps strengthen their stems, improving overall stability. Additionally, the wind creates a more challenging environment for pests, helping to keep them at bay. Smart Watering Strategy I only water the plants when the pots feel noticeably lighter. This encourages the roots to search for water, promoting the development of a stronger and more extensive root system. This method helps ensure the plants remain healthy and resilient. Pest Management: Observations and Actions At the beginning of the third week, I noticed dark discolorations on the undersides of some leaves. A few days later, these spots turned into yellow patches. I am still unsure about the cause of these spots. To prevent a potential insect infestation, I sprayed all the leaf surfaces, both top and bottom, with a mildly dosed neem oil mixture. Since then, the spots have not spread further. Because these discolorations are only affecting the lower leaves, they are not causing me significant concern at the moment. Regular inspections and preventive measures are crucial to maintaining the health of the plants and ensuring that any issues are caught early. Decision Against LST At first I have decided against using LST. But some of your comments made me try some LST on two of my plants. I choose Tangie and Gorilla cookies to try out and learn some stuff. Blue dream and Banana purple punch stay without any training. Thanks guys for your advice 👍 Monitoring and Care My daily routine involves checking the plants every morning and evening. This includes: Monitoring the moisture level of the coco mix. Inspecting the plants for any signs of pests or nutrient deficiencies. Growth Observations The plants are responding well to the controlled environment and balanced nutrition. They are growing rapidly, with new leaves appearing almost daily. The stems are thickening, and the overall structure of the plants is robust and healthy. Looking Ahead As we head into week 4, I am optimistic about the continued growth and health of my plants. The combination of a stable environment, appropriate nutrient levels, and diligent care is proving successful. I’m excited to see how they progress and adapt as they move closer to the flowering stage. Seeking Feedback and Tips Your feedback and tips are valuable to me! If you have any suggestions on how I can improve my growing techniques or insights based on your own experiences, please feel free to share them in the comments below. Let's grow together!

This girl is looking great! Noticeably frostier than last year so I am excited! She smells really strong right now, lotta sweet and slightly skunky. I spend most of my video talking about how my plan for a tomato roof using stuff I already had didn't work out so looks like I'm going to Lowe's on Wednesday. Gotta get it up before the cold and rain starts in so I don't get moldy buds.

Hello Tokers and Growers! Welcome to another great Indica adventure! Some of you already know I love me some Indica. 😁 My current favorite Indica is Cream Caramel from Sweet Seeds but I decided to try something new this run. Sweet Zenzation (SWS84) also from Sweet Seeds. She's my only Indica dominant cultivar in the tent so I'll be taking extra care of this one. Strain characteristics: Sweet Zenzation derives from a cross between an elite clone of Zkittlez combined with a specially selected Grape Ape clone, which is one of the strains used to develop the original Zkittlez. The result is a predominantly indica genetic hybrid. It produces a large amount of resin-soaked flowers. It is both relaxing and stress-relieving, yet it also stimulates the imagination and conversation, an effect that is normally associated with sativa strains. The flowers have a high terpene content, an exquisite aroma and sweet taste, with hints of fruit flavoured candies, hardwood undertones, shades of lemon, cypress and subtle aromatic peppers. Variety SWS84 Genetics: Zkittlez x Grape Ape Type: Feminized Indica: 70% / Sativa: 30% THC: 16-23% · CBD: 0,2% Indoor Yield: 450-650 g/m2 Outdoor Yield: 400-700 g/plant Indoor Blooming: 9 weeks Outdoor Harvest: late September, early October Expectations & Training method: First time growing this strain but Sweet Seeds have always given me sweet and savory yields so I’m guessing this one won’t be any different. Genetics are promising some tasty terps, I’m the aroma will blow me away. Indica dominant so I’ll be trying to make a bud packed bush out of these. Haven’t quite decided what training technique to go with either LST or TOP and just a bit of LST adjusting the colas. That’ll depend on how I see the growth up until the training day. As for yield I’m aiming for at least 50g each plant. Equipment used in this cycle: Tent: Dutch Masters 120x240x220cm Lights: 1 x Mars Hydro TSW2000 1 x Mars Hydro FC3000 Ventilation: Garden HighPro - ProFan TT Extractor Fan - 150mm Garden Highpro - ProActiv Carbon Filter - 150mm Garden Highpro - ProFan Oscilating Clip Fans - 25cm Blauburg - Inline Fan - 125mm Humidifier: Garden Highpro - Humipro Digital Humidifier - 4 liters Pots: Garden Highpro 11L Fabric pots Medium: Biobizz Light Mix Nutrients: Grotek - Mycrorizo Plagron- Alga grow, Alga Bloom, green sensation and royal sugar. PH down Calmag Measuring instruments: Hygrometer/Thermometer - Govee: EC Meter - HM Digital: COM-80S Hydrotester PH Meter - Vanguard Hydroponics Happy Growing!

Harvest: Everything dried up to 347 grams + 96 grams of super high quality trim. Overall I am not too pleased with the smoke of the product. Although the bud size, bag appeal, smell and taste are pretty much all there, the shitty burn is a deal breaker for me and the majority of this weed is quite frankly useless. Another downside is while smoking I’ve found 4 seeds in an ounce from almost every strain. Light leaks? At least I learned a ton, including how to get super good burn for my next crop. I’m hoping that curing for a month or so will improve the burn but I wouldn’t really count on it. I have seen weed dried for 4 days with no cure and no flush smoke clean and not go out once. I have been told that the key to white ashes/clean burn is proper mineral content in the soil and there is tons of scientific studies on cigar ash going back 100 years. Plants grown in a medium with high levels of decomposing organic matter, phosphorus, magnesium, chlorine and heavy metal ratio tend to produce black/grey ash. Whereas plants grown in a medium with a higher ratio of trace minerals like calcium carbonate and potassium in the form of wood ash, rock dusts, oyster shell flour and lower levels of decomposing organic matter will produce a dense, uniform white ash that rarely goes out. But this is still all theory until I test it to confirm for myself a few times. My last few outdoor harvests did not improve with curing at all so I’m hoping this will be the missing link. Plain peat moss and coco clearly lack essential minerals that help burn. If said theory is correct I should find a synthetic nutrient line with more trace minerals. Makes me wonder if growing if rockwool/basalt rock could improve burn in a hydro setup. I think I did a fairly decent job for my first grow. I went wrong in a million different places but I still stuck it out and got some decent herb. Things went wrong early when I got black spot mold, nitrogen/magnesium deficiencies and powdery mildew. I corrected most of it but things didn’t get really bad until mid veg when I intentionally skipped a few feedings and defoliated quite heavily stunting the plants. I also didn’t even top or start LST until the 6-9th node which was really stupid and hurt my yield. My temperatures were all over the place from the learning curve. I was severely overwatering without realizing it. 100% peat moss is a shitty medium. I also fed way too late in flower (not what caused shitty burn). I also used synthetic nutrients in soil.

nice week this week. very noticable transformation. I have a yetti purple berry kush in there which smells just amazing. this week i tried, for the first time, some under canopy LED. 2nd day with it today as i write this. they really took it well. perked up and kept at it. the color and hue is starting to come through. Super happy with this tent. I think its worth the effort to create an organised space to give yourself the best chance possible. you will see the difference in apporach form Auto tent and then photpoeriod tent. you can see the bonsai pineapple Kush at the end of the video. she never took off but she was kept on all the same.

Almost there! Plant number #1 is finally looking and smelling like it's time to get chopped down. Some colas have enough amber trichomes but not all of them. The smoke from plant #2 gets a very heady high so I'm wondering if I make sure I see amber everywhere the buds will produce more of a body high. I'm probably going to cut her down this week- stay tuned!

Another week down and things just keep getting better and better with this one. Big fat buds laced in resin and the smell is soooo good and strong! Very strawberry-like with a ton of gas that my carbon filter is doing a poor job of covering up. Oh well, smells good. :) I will start flushing about mid way through its growing week and then chop shortly after. It’s getting so close to finished I’m just waiting for more amber. I’m mostly cloudy right now.
