The struggle is real for her but she is pressing on. Not much growth this week but I look forward with a positive mind.

🌱 Week 3 | Purple Haze Photo | Folder 6B | A Different Personality Emerges Although Purple Haze 6B shares the same genetics, environment, nutrition, and cultivation method as her sister, she is already beginning to express her own unique growth pattern. This is precisely why each phenotype in Project Blue receives its own individual diary. Every plant has a story worth documenting, and comparing them side by side allows us to appreciate the subtle differences that make growing from seed such an exciting experience. Like every plant in this project, Purple Haze 6B is being cultivated using the 12/12 From Seed technique. From germination onward, the plants receive a flowering photoperiod, encouraging compact growth while allowing each phenotype to naturally develop its own architecture before flowering fully takes over. It’s an unconventional approach, but one that consistently produces healthy, manageable plants while showcasing each phenotype’s individuality. During this third week the plant settled comfortably into her new container and responded with a noticeable burst of vegetative growth. Looking back at the first photographs and comparing them to the final images of the week, the improvement is impressive. The canopy has expanded considerably, secondary branches are becoming increasingly active, and the plant is building the framework that will eventually support her flowers. Growing Environment As with every diary in this project, environmental stability remains one of the highest priorities. Throughout the week the conditions remained consistent: * Temperature: 27°C (lights on) * Night Temperature: 25°C * Relative Humidity: 55% * Root Zone Temperature: 21°C * Nutrient Solution Temperature: 20°C * pH: 6.0 * EC: 1.3 * CO₂: approximately 666 ppm * Photoperiod: 12 Hours On / 12 Hours Off * Average PPFD: 600–700 Keeping these parameters stable allows the plants to focus their energy on producing healthy roots, vigorous stems, and continuous vegetative growth rather than constantly adapting to environmental changes. Feeding Program Purple Haze 6B continues receiving the complete Plagron Terra feeding schedule: * Terra Grow — 1.8 ml/L * Power Roots — 1 ml/L * Pure Zym — 1 ml/L * Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L At this stage I’m not chasing explosive growth. My objective is to establish an exceptionally healthy root system, maintain balanced nutrition, and encourage strong structural development before flowering begins in earnest. Healthy foundations almost always produce healthier harvests. A Bushier Growth Pattern One characteristic that immediately stands out in this phenotype is her naturally bushy structure. Rather than stretching vertically, she appears determined to produce numerous secondary shoots from every node. The lateral branches are developing rapidly and are already beginning to compete with the main stem for dominance, creating what should become a beautifully even canopy in the weeks ahead. The fan leaves remain broad and healthy, showing excellent turgor with a rich green colour that suggests the feeding program is well balanced. New growth emerges bright green before gradually darkening as each leaf matures—a normal sign of vigorous development. The stem is thickening steadily and every new internode is adding more potential flowering sites. Gentle Canopy Management As with the rest of the Project Blue plants, no aggressive training has been necessary. Instead, I’ve continued using simple leaf tucking throughout the week. Rather than removing healthy foliage, I gently reposition the larger fan leaves beneath neighboring branches, allowing more light to reach the developing side shoots hidden below. This simple technique offers several advantages: * Improves light penetration. * Encourages stronger lateral branch development. * Maintains maximum photosynthetic capacity. * Eliminates unnecessary recovery time associated with defoliation. At this stage every healthy fan leaf is an energy factory. My philosophy is to preserve as many of them as possible while simply helping the plant organize its own canopy. Sometimes the simplest techniques deliver the best long-term results. Looking Forward Purple Haze 6B is developing into a wonderfully compact, vigorous phenotype with excellent branching and impressive canopy density. Every day she seems to produce another layer of healthy growth, and the structure she’s building now should provide an outstanding foundation for flowering. It will be fascinating to compare her with Purple Haze 6A over the coming weeks. Although they started from the same seed line and have received identical treatment, they’re already beginning to reveal their individual personalities—one slightly more symmetrical, the other naturally bushier and eager to fill every available space. Those subtle differences are one of the greatest joys of phenotype hunting, and documenting each one separately ensures that none of those unique traits are lost along the journey. A huge thank you to Plagron, Zamnesia, GrowDiaries, and everyone following along with Project Blue. Mr. Baggy wandered through for another inspection this week and confidently declared that this young lady has absolutely no intention of growing quietly in the corner. Judging by her vigorous branching, I have a feeling he’s right. Growers Love 🌱🛍️

I go for 7 weeks of veg, done with the LST last week and now i am waiting to get some height 40-45cm and switch to flowering. The broken stem of last week didnt survive. 😪 This week i give 350ppm, 650pmm was too mutch i think. I dont know if the high PPM of Run-Off was from overwatering or overfertilization, so i start to water less frequently every 6-7 days with RO only and see what the Run-Off says, the last time i water with RO only and the Run-Off was 856PPM, now i hope the Run-Off go down to 100-150PPM and start again with nutrients. 😵😵 13/3 Today i set up my second lamp 400watt HPS to check temps...all good! After i put the Co2 bag in grow room, i saw that the plant's can handle very hot temperatures, and i think they like somewere between 29-31C when the temps go high they look very happy, before the Co2 bag in this temperatures they struggled. 14/3 Defoliate all plants and two plants topped for 12 and 9 (the broken one) colas, the other two stays with 8 colas. Water 4 liters RO only and again the Run-Off was at 850PPM. Flush with 20-25liters tap water at 180PPM (Too hard in my town) and the Run-Off go down at 280PPM 💪 Next week i will give very small doses at 300-350PPM and see what is going to happen.

D50/FD22 - Right, water change day (Evening). Right and proper f**ked off with the light doing me over (See D49/FD21 Comment for that epic story!!!). Where stretch had stopped (I thought), plants are back in the lights AGAIN!!! Blaming the light giving a near 24hour session and some other broken sessions of light over the last 48 hours!!! So had to pull out the extraction as getting LED burn on leaves that are touching! Blowing through the Carbon Filter and can't really smell anything so that's not bad. Everything a wee bit noisier with the fan not being muffled in the tent but need the space and got around a foot. Not prefiltering the fan as I have the new Cloudline to go in for next grow. Hopefully they grow no more and its all thickening buds from here so as I have space for the UVB in there in a week or 2! Slight change in feed. Dropped the roots booster as Wilma can't take any more...its full!!! Dunno how I am still getting 50L of water in there!!! Added PK9/18 (At half strength). Should probs drop the calmag (Or Kind Base down a bit) to drop nitrogen but am still seeing some copper spots here and there that looks like wee calcium deficiencies (Not much, but its there) - I do have some BioBizz CalMag (Which is Nitrogen Free) but it leaves the tank stinking with precipitate and dirties the roots. Think this is the 1st grow I have had where all the stems staying green so plants generally healthy. Cherry Pie still not budding up as quickly or as thickly as the Red hot Cookies but looks like its maybe running only a couple of days behind in growth so no biggie. Few weeks left for it to catch up and surprise me at the end! 😁 Now just to make sure I see no signs of re-veg...as per the D49/FD21 comment, I'll be scowling at GeekLight this week. Digital Timer in there now to ensure no bleed through - power gets hard cut like old times. Unfortunately though, when the light comes on via power-on (and not app timer mode), UV & IR comes on too so have a timer set to stop it after 1 min (Its about all the app being used for now!!! Apart from turning on my IV at midnight for 4 hours - which is, I have just seen, still working). Think that's all the s**te I have to talk for now! Happy Growing all!!! 💪

Today is the second day this week with sunshine. The days before were rainy and cold. All plants are doing fine, but I feel, they should be quicker. But then again I am probably spoiled in that regard, by growing indoor. One of the ICE (3) isn't happy somehow and rolling her leaves, but her green and growth matches the others, so I ignore it. The plants received nothing this week, except naturally falling rain water. I have some plant manure cooking, it should be ready in 10-14 days. The garden is full of sweet peas, so i am using those. I also made some compost tea, which I will give the plants tomorrow morning. If there is interest, I will cover my next batch of manure/tea with some pictures. The Passion #1 look like they have bounced back from the topping. In one or two weeks I will top them again.

Well after having issues with my 3x3 set up, I decided to move the 2x2 over to the main room and see if it helps get the humidity down. And it did. Went from 65% down to 45% the first day now it goes back and forth between 45% and 50%. Way better then 58% and 66% if you ask me. I also opened the tent up so that it can get a bit of the extra light from my other lights. Especially as one of the buds is up past the light. Lol been a interesting grow so far thats for sure. Well that's all for now so happy growing everyone!!!

Rough week! Found two major hermie issues Pheno #5&2. Could be because they where the OGs and they just had a long stressful life. Really bummed because they where the biggest in the tent for sure. Have a coupoe tops with orange hairs so maybe got pollinated, all i can do is keep my eye on them! Besides that everything is looking so great had to re-train and move canopy around but still have full coverage. Getting allot more tops

4/1/2023 Week 7- Day 1 of Veg (Day 59 overall) Water Change Day!!! Water was really low it was just above the hump in the Res cutting it close to not having enough water in the system to keep it going. They drank a lot making it close going the full 14 days. I am still going with the previous grows and adding 36 Gallons but even looking at the root I think the SILICA is working and the roots are further along at this point than in previous grows. This next two weeks will watch how much they drink and how low my Res starts getting, and will make a decision on changing the water weekly from here on out or still keep on the plan of every other week until Week 4 of Flower. Added 36 Gallons Mammoth SILICA= .5Mil/Gal = 18Mil CALMAG= .5Mil/Gal = 18Mil Root Drip= 1Mil/Gal = 36Mil FloraMicro = 5.4Mil/Gal = 194Mil FloraGrow = 4.2Mil/Gal = 151Mil FloraBloom = 4.6Mil/Gal = 166Mil ORCA = .5Mil/Gal =18Mil PPM= 536 PH=5.84 PPFD=500 Tent Temp= 76.5 Water Temp= 71.4 Humidity= 58% 4/2/2023 Week 7- Day 2 of Veg (Day 60 overall) Not much today, PH was at 5.81, I brought that back up to 5.90. I took care of some badly needed defoliation in each of the back sides .. I was able to see some really good clone material to use on the lower backside of each of the plants. I will be taking two clones from each to breed over the next few weeks depending on when I am going to flip them. 4/3/2023 Week 7- Day 3 of Veg (Day 61 overall) A little FIMing, A little Topping, and a Little bit of defoliation. Might have to take my clones during the week this week, I am trying to wait until Saturday to hit week 8 but again they are getting all over the place and I need to trim some of the sides and lower areas. 4/4/2023 Week 7- Day 4 of Veg (Day 62 overall) I decided to take my clones and clean up the lower half of the plants. I took 2 clones from each plant to go into the cloning machine. 4/5/2023 Week 7- Day 5 of Veg (Day 63 overall) Water Temp is sitting at 73. Right in my ideal range for my setup. Ideal range 70-74 My Temp Tent is my ideal zone75.6 Ideal for this grow 70-78 The lights are still waiting the switch to flower to get maxed out... The Humidity is coming in right at 60% I love it.. I took so much off yesterday I figure it was a good day to let them rest. 4/6/2023 Week 7- Day 6 of Veg (Day 64 overall) I needed to Defoliate some and I topped a little. The plants might force me to flip them soon. Next Wed is the 10 week mark half way through the 20 weeks. The net is Bingo... Which means that If/when the plants hit the net I will have to flip them. The Net is set to the max height that I can let them get based on the Breeders Stretch report 75%. 4/7/2023 Week 7- Day 7 of Veg (Day 65 overall) #3 is 22 inches Tall, #2 is 19 Inches Tall. Net is set at 24 inches. Net is also set as my Bingo point, if they hit the net then I have to flip no matter what to account for the Breeders recommended 75% Stretch allowance. I think I am going to have to flip right at the 10 week mark of the Competition which is Wed 12 Apr. I topped a little, I de-foliated a lot to start getting it ready for the anticipated Flip.

420Fastbuds FBT2313/Week5 What up grow fam. Sorry for the late weekly update but was having some technical difficulties. This week has been eventful to say the least. My heater went out letting my Temps drop to high 40'f for a night or two and wow did the plants tell me they're angry. Definitely starting to bounce back but just goes to show the reselants of Fastbuds genetics. I lollipoped and did one more defoliation this week so hopefully flower stage will be smooth sailing. All in all Happy Growing

Gran experiencia como siempre Contento con el resultado y con ganas de seguir probando y experimentando en este gran mundo. Cultivo facil de inicio pero que a finales por culpa de una plaga que no supe tratar a tiempo y sus consecuentes caos en esas dos semanas ... Fueron en la 4 y en la 5 semana , y desde ahí , pàrecio que cause unas carencias que ya se lastraron hasta el final del cultivo ... Aun así , en mojado pudimos sacar , nada mas que 530 gramos , y que ya luego en seco antes de pasarlas a los botes el peso total fue de unos 190 gramos de flor seca y ya lista para ir curando..

Day 84-91 (Day 3F-10F) (Day 6F) I’m giving a final foliar spray of Velokelp tonight before I start to see buds develop. Forgot to water today as I didn’t have any RO and bbb#1 was slumped and droopy. I decided to just water everything with tap water. I’ve been doing quite a bit of research on using city tap water with organics and it shouldn’t disturb the microbiology very much at all. And it will actually help smokability and ash color because of the extra CaCO3 in it. The higher 7.8 pH will also lockout heavy metals like aluminum as well. (Day 7F) Plants look just fine and the pH fluctuation didn’t make any difference at all. I’m going to discontinue the use of RO water for the rest of my run and all subsequent runs. (Day 8F) I’m defoliating small amounts of leaves and sucker branches but this thing is out of control. Every 12-18 hours I see noticeable growth. I want to do a heavy strip around day 21. Starting to see budlets and pistil clumps form! These plants don’t seem like huge stretchers but I’m still anticipating quite a jump in the next few weeks. (Day 10F) Everything is looking just perfect. I’m surprised how fast these 10 gallon pots are drying out now. They go from soaked to light and airy within a few days. Hopefully I can make it the next 2 weeks without seeing any N or Mg deficiencies.

The girls have basically exploded this week! They were drinking a ton and have responded really well to the steady increase in nutrients. With the room being basically self sustaining, it’s been a lot less work. Yesterday was the second round of defoliation and because this is my first time getting this far, I decided to be pretty moderate. There’s a few plants I took quite a bit off as an experiment and they seem to be doing great! The guy at my local hyrdo store recommended GH Floralicious Plus for flavor and smell, so I decided to try it out and this is some pretty potent stuff. After their first feeding of the Floralicious they are smelling delicious! The one plant furthest into flower is starting to show some fade in the lower leaves, she will certainly be done before the rest. She has a very sweet and sour aroma, especially if she gets rustled around a little bit. I’m stoked for the rest of flower and seeing their progress. Also I haven’t seen a fungus gnat in weeks so those yellow sticky traps are a must.

Another week down. As some of you will see, from the three purple kush autos one defiantly has the characteristics of a “purple kush plant” it is very small with odd shaped buds and almost purpley/black. The other two are monsters with no purple traits. I did loose a plant at the start that was also stunted, which likely would have produced another “purple budded” plant. Anyway it has been hotter than hell here, and they pretty much survived a hurricane and tornado, so I think these girls will finish out the summer just nice. I gave them a feed of some cal mag and some fox farms tiger bloom. Other than that they be chillin. Enjoy the weather! Cheers.

La pequeña gorila sigue fabricando pistilos y sus tricomas siguen transparentes, con lo cual la dejaremos alguna semanas mas para ir viendo el proceso. Los cogollos están realmente prensados y tiene un fuerte olor a cítricos 🔥 muy muy pegajosos Con ganas de terminar esta maravilla para poder fumarla 👌

_____📅 Week 16 | 📅 Day 112 | 🍂 Harvest after the 8. week 🍂 ______ Day 112 🌞🍂🍁💐 - I decided to harvest 2 of the 3 Lemon Power Haze...Exactly after the 8th week. - I'll leave LPH#1 in the tent for at least another week. - Yield is okay...but the buds didn't get even light either...there were too many plants or too long a veggie phase... Day 122 🌞🍂🍁💐 I harvested LPH#1 after 9.5 weeks, I think that did her good Yield dry: LPH#1 - 80 gr LPH#2 - 105gr LPH#3 - 90 gr ____________________ 3 Plants 275 gr total This is now filled into 4 liter preserving jars and stored for at least 1 month with 62% boveda packs. the room temperature is approx. 18-20°. I have not included many small “popcorn buds” as I process them further. It's a big tin I think max 20-30g. #DrySpaceContest
