Week 2 Report: The White OG - The Solo Survivor Shines 🌟 She may be the solo survivor, but The White OG is already proving she’s a beauty in the making! With her third set of leaves emerging, she’s entering Week 2 of veg and starting to find her stride. This week has been all about supporting her early growth with balanced nutrition, a perfect environment, and plenty of love. Let’s dive into why Week 2 is such a game-changer and how the Aptus Holland line is setting her up for success. Why Week 2 Veg Is Vital 🌱 This is a pivotal time for any grow. The foundation laid in Week 2 determines how well your plant will perform later. It’s about encouraging root development, strengthening the stem, and building the resilience she’ll need for the big stages ahead. The third set of leaves is a sign that she’s transitioning from her seedling phase into a true vegging plant, which means she’s ready for a little extra care in the form of feeding. Feeding with Aptus Holland: A Total Game-Changer This week, I introduced the Aptus Holland organic-mineral line, and wow—this stuff is incredible! It combines the best of organic and mineral worlds for balanced, healthy growth. What’s Organic-Mineral Nutrition? • Organic Benefits: Enriches microbial health and enhances soil vitality, building a strong biological base. • Mineral Benefits: Offers immediate, direct nutrient uptake for steady, balanced growth. • Why It’s Awesome: Plants get the best of both worlds, growing stronger, healthier, and more resilient. This Week’s Feeding Schedule • Regulator (0.15 ml/L): A silica-based product that toughens plant structure, helps manage stress, and boosts nutrient uptake. Think of it as your plant’s personal trainer—keeping her sturdy and stress-free. 🌟 Why It Matters: Stronger stems = better support for future growth. • CalMag Boost (0.25 ml/L): Essential for developing robust cell walls and producing lush chlorophyll. Calcium and magnesium are like the bricks and mortar of your plant’s structure. 🌟 Why It Matters: Ensures vibrant, lush leaves and steady early growth. • All-in-One Liquid (1 ml/L): A perfectly balanced nutrient blend that provides everything she needs in one feed. Ideal for ensuring no deficiencies as she picks up the pace. 🌟 Why It Matters: Simplifies feeding while delivering complete nutrition. • Start Booster (0.25 ml/L): Packed with root-stimulating microbes and essential nutrients, this is the secret weapon for explosive root growth. 🌟 Why It Matters: Strong roots = a stronger plant overall. She’s ready to soar! Tent Conditions: Consistency Is Key The tent setup remains steady, providing the ideal environment for healthy growth: • Temperature: Warm and stable—perfect for vigorous vegetative growth. • Humidity: High RH ensures tropical vibes and keeps her roots hydrated as she develops her third set of leaves. • Lighting: The Future of Grow (FOG) LED at 200 PPFD delivers just the right intensity to keep her compact and growing strong. Why Aptus Holland? I’ve been a true believer in Aptus long before any sponsorship—it’s a brand that builds strong, healthy plants from the ground up. Their organic-mineral approach gives your plants the resilience and energy they need to thrive. The results speak for themselves: happy plants, lush growth, and vibrant health at every stage. It’s a system I trust completely. 🌱💪 Shoutouts and Community Love 🌟 Massive love to everyone making this journey possible: Breeders, LED brands like Future of Grow, and, of course, all the amazing growers and followers here on Grow Diaries. 🌱 Don’t forget to check out more updates on IG and YouTube (links in profile).

UPDATES: Insanely frosty and insanely stinky already. Very suprised! GENETICS: -Mephisto ~ Sour Stomper Been waiting to plant my first Mephisto seed. I had a hard time getting a hold of some, but got the Sour Stomper from Harvest Mutual eventually. WATER: -Condensed (Starting at 40ppm) -Disinfected prior to adding nutrients etc. (Using COOSPIDER UVC - 253nm & 187nm bulb) CLIMATE: - Ambient Air Temp = 29'C ~ 27'C LST ~ Leaf to air temp variance of between 1-2'C - Night Temp = 22/23'C ~ Day/Night temp differential 6-7'C - Under Canopy Temp: 27'C (Day) ~ 22'C (Night) - Relative Humidity = 50-60%RH (Avg. 55%RH) - VPD = 1.45kPa (Avg.) - Co2 ranges from 900ppm to 1500ppm (Avg. 1200ppm) AIR PRESSURE: - Avg. ambient Air Pressure (outside tent) = up to 1010 mbars (101 Kilopascals) - Avg. actual Air Pressure (inside tent) = up to 1005 mbars (100.5 Kilopascals) - Air Pressure Differential = up to 0.5 kPa range between inside & outside LIGHT: - 2 x CREE COBs - At plant canopy = PPFD 900-1000umols/s/m2 ~ Lux 35,000-45,000 ~ Daily Light Integral 55-65 NUTRIENTS: - Mostly Advanced Nutrients (For base nutrients and most additives, as only company I could find scientific data on) - Canna (For Calmag Agent and Cannazym) - Plant Success (Great White Mycorrhizae) ADDITIONAL GROW TECHNIQUES: - Mostly getting out of the plants way and letting nature take its course. - Some LST. (i.e. tying down branches and tucking large leaves away) - No HST or Defoliation. INFECTION PREVENTION & CONTROL: Infection control practices i.e -PPE, Alcohol Hand wash -Gray room outside tent, -Carbon filter -HEPA filter -Plasma Ionizer -Inline UV-C germicidal bulb - Also using an additional higher powered COOSPIDER (UVC) 253nm & 187nm bulb, to disinfect the gray room outside of the tent once a week for 30 mins. - Ozone (o3) gas that is produced using the COOSPIDER, is then directed into the tent to further control any unwanted pathogens. - Ed Rosenthal (Zero Tolerance organic pesticide), sprayed once a week as preventative measure. On hand for heavier use (Once every 3 days before lights out for 15 days) in the case of an outbreak (No outbreaks yet, due to aforementioned preventative measures)

UPDATE - Saturday 13th March This week has been ok but I need to take it easy on the nutes! Especially with the soil one. Ooohhhhh 😵why did I use soil. It’s really annoying because it’s at weedy little seedling stage and iv obviously over fed it. I added some worm castings to the one on the right in the hempy bucket though , along with ecothrive biosys They should break down fairly quickly given how packed with microbes and micorhyzae to buffer the ph of my hempy buckets to where I need them to be. I don’t even bother with my ph pen now. I’m glad I didn’t spend £69 on one but it would be good to get a decent one at some point. It’s not top of the list though. Grow space number three is looming and this time I actually have the equipment. Only problem is I don’t want to use my old converted wardrobe. It’s too small and pretty pointless. If I’m going to have a tent in my studio flat space where I have to hear the fans or rather the varispeeds hum. I’m very tempted to take the big grow tent out of that room and then paint the walls bright white and just vent the room. Instead of the tent. The ductings already there. Then I could move the bigger tent somewhere else in the flat. The thing is - I started growing to provide me with my medicine,however, I’m in prohibition-land. So far I haven’t had the space to be able to get a monster harvest. My last one was the best so far I think it was 2.5oz between three plants. I have decided to turn it into an auto tent (shout out to fast buds for sponsoring me) They are just so easy. At first I was worried because i thought the lights were on longer but they finish so god dam quick from seed to smoking. I’m f surly sure curing autos must take longer than growing them. That fastberry is coming along nice but It’s such a non bushy plant. Like lanky but in a good way. A lanky green stem with these random bright purple buds on the tops. This is the first grow I’m going to use a proper magnification device when I need to check trichomes. I think iv been harvesting too early. Well actually just last time because I was scared the police were coming. LOONG story. Anyway, I’m looking forward to being able to see those thrich’s get cloudier and cloudier. Will make some nice source photographs for my art also. I nabbed these awesome plant holder uppers that just poke into the soil in the pot and they are round and have sections to put cola’s through. They look really perfect for auto’s final bushy look once trained.

Started the week with a flush and have been preparing for flower/ recovering from some stress. Trying out the flush to see how good of a response I get to flower nutrient uptake...open for advise. Ive been doing a lot of research and am just doing what seems rite to me as I continue to learn, this is 1st time ever training or applying a feed schedule to a plant I started Foliar Feeding daily this week with Bush Dr Flower Kiss by fox farm and have noticed the plant really liking it. I changed up my Cal mag to advanced nutrients Cal mag Xtra because it seems to have everything my plant was telling me I was missing recently, I like that it replaces the Kelp me Kelp you by fox farm (recommended in the FF nutrient schedule) and gives you slightly stronger doses of cal mag my plant seems to like now.

Not much resin yet, maybe next week. A little bit of smell already, mostly veg/plant smell though. All in all, I think it's going pretty well.

Gained some height since last week, bud sites everywhere. Defoliatated a few leaves to allow light in as its really bushy. Upped the nutrients and shes drinking alot more now. Hopefully see some trichromes popping up soon and they fatten up
