####Please do read the disclaimer in the first entry! 01/28/25 Short facts: - VPD @ 1.0 but normaly it doesn't get better than 0.9 - Light @80% so most leaves are exposed to 500 - 960 ppfd - Success with the colloidal silver --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Finally, the attempts to spray her with colloidal silver were successful. Many pollen sacs are developing, and I hope they will be ready within a week. Buying a new spray was the right decision because, with the new one, it took less than two weeks for the pollen sacs to appear. However, the leaves are looking worse nowโ€”some are almost 70% dead. I still hope she will make it so the seeds can fully develop. I planted the Lemon Cherry Cookies much earlier than the other two plants to avoid pollinating Slurricane and 1:Walt. However, due to the delay, both are already in flower, so they will end up with some seeds. Maybe one of the crosses will turn out to be something special! ๐Ÿ˜‚

Soil level is a bit low after the transplant so getting ready to add some in. Took domes off and did first Nute feed on day 12. Using a FloraTrio mix with a touch of Cali-Magic and epsom salt

Well, I came back after vacation, and this is what I found: it jumped up to the light.... I made a little cropping and tried to use more LST, the problem is that it no longer fits :D :D :D but at the same time, it's really interesting to me trip :)also, several rings are already affected by the light, my 50w light currently shines at 100%, maybe it would be better to reduce it to at least 80%?.

Very Happy plants, soaking up the rays. When you place your face near the buds you get an amazing sweet fruity aroma, the leaves smell like skunk and cheese. Each plant is getting 10 liters every 4 days. I water with 6.3ph tap water twice for every time I add nutrients. I use Alaska fish fertilizer when its been a few times since a nutrient feed but the plants are showing no deficiency's. They are Fed by a drip system which takes 16 hours to deliver the 10 liters to each plant, this works really well in the Fabric smart pots. I use metal racks to keep the plants off the ground then place a drip tray underneath each plant. When using the drip system very little run off occurs. I added a spider farmer sf-1000 to the room, it is full spectrum and ir, and is great for getting the corners of the room or the less dense areas of the canopy.

Day 63: This should be the last week in veg. It might be a partial week...I'll make the call in a few days. I'm excited to see these babes flower!!! Day 64: Last night I saw what appeared to be signs of overwatering, so I turned off the humidifier and the temp increased immediately and today, they look just fine. I also raised the 150W LED on that side of the tent just a bit to reduce the intensity. This will be the last week for veg. I flipped the other tent, but these babes need just a little longer before flipping. Day 65: They looked pretty thirsty today, so I fed 1 gal of late veg nutes per plant. The soil was very dry according to my meter, so if I overwatered last time, they had plenty of dryness today. Day 67: I came home to near wilting plants! It had been 52 hours since last feeding and I've never seen them this thirsty during this grow. I watered 1 gal/plant again and GZ is showing the same signs of over watering again. The leaf color is fine with zero nutrient issues, so I suspect there may be a root problem. I don't know what else it could be? The photos are about 4 hours after watering. Day 68: The moisture meter showed bone dry again, so I watered a half gallon of water/cal-mag. I also decided to turn off the extra 150W LED sitting above her and just let the main LED do the work for now. Day 69: She was dry again today, so I watered a half gallon of late veg nutes and she's appearing to be recovering just fine. I think the heat in the tent might have been causing some issues as well, so good thing I turned off that extra light for now. Day 70: Last day of VEG!!!

Ladies, gentlemen, and all the wonderful beings following this journey, I am thrilled to announce that we have reached the highly anticipated harvest week for our beautiful PCRs. This has been an incredible journey, and now it's time to reap the rewards of our hard work and dedication. The PCRs are nothing short of perfection. Their frost-covered buds are a sight to behold, glistening like they've been kissed by winter's breath. The trichomes are abundant and sparkling, making these ladies look absolutely stunning. The aroma is intoxicating, a true testament to their strong genetics and the care they've received. Upon taking them out of the tent, I was amazed by their strength and resilience. Despite my best efforts to make them dance, these ladies stood tall and proud, requiring no support at all. This just goes to show the exceptional quality and sturdiness of the PCR strain. Aptus Holland's Enzym+. This product is a game-changer, breaking down dead root material and turning it into usable nutrients, ensuring our soil remains rich and fertile for future grows. Speaking of which, I do plan to reuse the soil, thanks to the amazing benefits of Enzym+. This enzyme product not only helps with nutrient uptake but also keeps the soil ecosystem healthy and thriving. Here's the final stats for this week: TDS: 130 PH: 6.8 Temp: 21ยฐC A huge shout-out to Aptus Holland for their incredible products that have consistently supported my plants' growth and health. Also, a massive thank you to Art Genetix for creating the phenomenal PCR strain that has brought so much joy to this grow. To all my fellow growers, followers, and the entire community, your support and encouragement mean the world to me. This journey wouldn't be the same without you. As we move forward, let's continue to spread love, positivity, and the joy of cultivating these amazing plants. Stay tuned for the final results and more updates as we dry and cure these beautiful buds. Until then, keep growing, stay positive, and never stop believing in the magic of cultivation.

But sheโ€™s showing me something else, and Iโ€™m not here to fight her โ€” just guide her. Now after stretch, Iโ€™m keeping side shoots only if they: Fill real canopy gaps Donโ€™t crowd neighboring tops (minimum 15cm spacing) Arenโ€™t growing into walls or toward the next plant Anything too close, too low, or heading into shade gets removed. No point forcing it. Looks like Iโ€™ll finish with 14โ€“16 solid tops, depending on how she settles. Iโ€™m just trying to give each one enough light and space to stack properly. No overcrowding, no larf โ€” just letting her do her thing with a bit of structure. Increased Tri Part Micro to 50ml as well. 28.06.25 VW11 one week since I flipped to 12/12 and she is stretching nicely, a bit shy in showing pistils compared to the Fantasy Feast regulars I have in the same tent. 29.06.25 VW11 increased GreenBuzzBloom 30โ†’ 60ml 06.07.25 FW1 TriPart Micro: 50โ†’ 30ml TriPart Bloom: 0 โ†’ 20ml Home-made FFJ/FPJ (Watermelon + Pumpkin): 10 โ†’ 30ml 12.07.25 FW1 GreenBuzzBloom 60 โ†’40ml, TriPart Bloom: 20 โ†’ 60ml, fpj 30โ†’60ml 19.07.25 FW3 Got some bleached tops, been out and about at job interviews and didn't notice a last minute stretch spurt ๐Ÿ˜ญ, should recover fine though plenty of time left ๐Ÿ˜ 22.07.25 FW3 TriPartMicro 30โ†’20ml , TriPartBloom 60โ†’80ml , GreenBuzzBloom 40โ†’50ml 24.07.25 FW3 Cal-Mag 60โ†’40ml 26.07.25 got thrips but handled them with extra airflow and defoliation. 29.07.25 FW4 GreenBuzzBloom 50โ†’20ml, Home-made FFJ/FPJ (new batch) 60โ†’120ml 31.07.25 FW4 Home-made FFJ/FPJ (new batch) 120โ†’200ml 13.08.25 FW6 CalMag 40 โ†’30ml, GreenBuzzBloom 20โ†’0ml 20.08.25 FW7 TriPartMicro 20โ†’10ml, TriPartBloom 80โ†’0ml, GreenBuzzBloom 0โ†’60ml, CalMag 30โ†’20ml ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐ŸŒฑ ๐ŸŒฟ Day to day tasks & actions ๐ŸŒฟ ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐ŸŒฑ 16.08.25 FW6 โ€“ Fed 5l of #1 โ†’ 2l runoff 17.08.25 FW7 โ€“ Fed 5l of #1 โ†’ 2l runoff 18.08.25 FW7 โ€“ Fed 5l of #1 โ†’ 2l runoff 19.08.25 FW7 โ€“ Fed 5l of #1 โ†’ 2l runoff 20.08.25 FW7 โ€“ Fed 2l of #1 โ†’ 0.5l runoff 21.08.25 FW7 โ€“ Fed 3l of #1 โ†’ 1l runoff 22.08.25 FW7 โ€“ Fed 3l of #1 โ†’ 1l runoff 23.08.25 FW7 โ€“ Fed 2l of #1 โ†’ 0.5l runoff (*RUNOFF reused for tomato plants) ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿถ ๐Ÿ’ง Nutrients in 30L #1 ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿถ TriPart Micro: 10 โ†’ 15 โ†’ 20 โ†’ 30 โ†’ 40 โ†’ 50 โ†’ 30 โ†’ 20 โ†’ 10ml = 0.33 ml/L TriPart Grow: 0 ml = 0.00 ml/L TriPart Bloom: 0 โ†’ 20 โ†’ 60 โ†’ 80 โ†’ 0ml = 0.00 ml/L GreenBuzz Bloom: 10 โ†’ 15 โ†’ 20 โ†’ 30 โ†’ 60 โ†’ 40 โ†’ 50 โ†’ 20 โ†’ 0 โ†’ 60ml = 2.00 ml/L Cal-Mag: 60 โ†’ 40 โ†’ 30 โ†’ 20ml = 0.67 ml/L Home-made FFJ/FPJ: 10 โ†’ 30 โ†’ 60 โ†’ 120 โ†’ 200ml = 6.67 ml/L pH Down: Citric acid (BuxXtrade) โ€” adjust to ~pH 6.0 ๐Ÿ“ฆ TOTAL: 290 ml per 30 L ๐Ÿ”ฌ 9.67 ml/L ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿถ โš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธ โœ‚๏ธ Tools & equipment โœ‚๏ธ โš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธ โœ‚๏ธ 2ร— MarsHydro SP3000 โš™๏ธ MarsHydro 150mm ACF Ventilator โœ‚๏ธ Trotec dehumidifier (big unit) โš™๏ธ Mini no-name dehumidifier โœ‚๏ธ Kebab skewers (LST โ€“ stainless) โš™๏ธ Wire + roast skewers (LST assist) โœ‚๏ธ Scissors (HST) โš™๏ธ Vacuum (for spills & cleanup) โœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธ --- ๐Ÿ๐Ÿช๐ŸŒฌ๏ธ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿ๐Ÿช๐ŸŒฌ๏ธ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿ๐Ÿช๐ŸŒฌ๏ธ๐Ÿฌ Apple Fritter (Kannabia Seeds) ๐Ÿ๐Ÿช๐ŸŒฌ๏ธ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿ๐Ÿช๐ŸŒฌ๏ธ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿ๐Ÿช๐ŸŒฌ๏ธ๐Ÿฌ Species: 50% Indica / 50% Sativa Genetics: Sour Apple ร— Animal Cookies THC: Up to 25% Effect: Euphoric, relaxing, creative Flavor: Sweet, fruity, pastry notes Flowering: 56โ€“63 days Resistance: High Indoor yield: 450โ€“500g/mยฒ Outdoor yield: 600g/plant Structure: Strong, bushy, dense buds

Vandaag 8 september is week 8 gestart en ze doet het geweldig ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿผ De bloemen worden er steeds meer en dikker en ze schiet steeds hoger in de lucht. De onderste zijtak is de hoofdstam al voorbij gegroeid in lengte. De luchtvochtigheid schommelt tussen de 50 en 70% en ik krijg deze niet lager. Ik heb geen zin om de verwarming aan te zetten in huis. Vanaf morgen zal ze verwend worden met de green sensation en terra bloom van Plagron. Ik zal gedurende de week weer foto's uploaden. Dag 54: dark-winged fungus gnats geconstateerd. Ik heb haar meteen behandeld met kaneelwater en heb de aarde bedekt met zand zodat ze niet meer gaan nestelen. (Zie filmpje) Ik hoop dat ik er op tijd bij ben geweest en er niet te veel larven in de grond zitten die de wortels aantasten. Dag 55: geen vliegen meer gezien. Halleluja To be continued....๐ŸŽ

Day 43 - First day of week 7 today and she looks really good just not sure if sheโ€™s really starting to flower yet. Iโ€™m hoping this is just typical of the GC strain. Day 44 - No major changes, sheโ€™s growing and Iโ€™m loving the looks of her. Will continue uploading daily pictures. Day 45 - Sheโ€™s looking really good and budding more and more each day. Gave her straight pHโ€™d water today and tomorrow and will give her another feeding on Saturday. Sheโ€™s drinking almost a gallon of water a day. Day 46 - Things are looking good with this girl. Bud sites are growing daily and this thing is a beauty. Gave her another feeding of just pHโ€™d water and will โ€œfeedโ€ her tomorrow. Day 47 - ALL is looking good and sheโ€™s looking purdy. Gave her a feeding with the foxfarm nutes today. Did a true measurement to the biggest branch and sheโ€™s at 25.5โ€. Will continue to measure each day to see how much sheโ€™s growing in a 24 hour period. Day 48 - Looking gorgeous and still stretching. Grew another two inches and is sitting at 27.5โ€ right now. Sheโ€™s really starting to fill in now and looking forward to the next few weeks. Day 49 - The way thing thing is growing, sheโ€™s gonna be a beast. Gave her straight pHโ€™d water tonight and will give her a feeding tomorrow. Looks like she finally stopped stretching, sitting at 27.5โ€ still so hopefully sheโ€™ll start putting on the weight.

Una settimana colma di cambiamenti, รฉ incredibile come le piante senza nessun tipo di training si adattino perfettamente tra di loro allo spazio circostante, quanti sensori possiedono le piante? Come comunicano tra di loro? mi ha sempre affascinato...

3/25/2023 Week 6- Day 1 of Veg (Day 52 overall) Added my first between changes SILICA Top offs. Was worried that when you add it to pre mixed Nutes that it can make the whole thing turn into a gummy looking substance. I was ready to drain the system and start it over for the week if needed, but no issues adding it to the tank. the Silica going into the Res didn't gummy the system up, it did drop my PH by quit a bit causing me to have to bring it back in balance. 36 Gallons in the Tank Silica Add .5mil/Gal = 18Mil I topped some that needed to be topped, I defoliated some that needs to be defoliated. Since I have moved into Week 6 I have increased the light intensity up to just over 500 maxing it out for Veg Cycle. Next increase will be Week 1 of Flower. 3/26/2023 Week 6- Day 2 of Veg (Day 53 overall) All conditions looked great. Other than me not putting one of the humidifiers back right which means it didn't work last night so Humidity was lower than I like. But got the Humidifier back on it's stand correctly and it is now pumping away. With that I decided to give the plants a day off from any stresses, no topping, no FIMing, no Defoliation for today. Just some good old soaking up the light rays and the ability to get all the Nutes they would like.. 3/27/2023 Week 6- Day 3 of Veg (Day 54 overall) Looking kind of Bushy today, so I defoliated some, and topped some. 3/28/2023 Week 6- Day 4 of Veg (Day 55 overall) PH was a little lower than I like 5.74 so I added a few Mil of PH UP and brought it back up to 5.94. Not much else at this stage, just I topped a little and I defoliated a little. 3/29/2023 Week 6- Day 5 of Veg (Day 56 overall) Topped a little, Defoliated a little Watched them grow!! 3/30/2023 Week 6- Day 6 of Veg (Day 57 Overall) Main action today was breaking down my old tent and setting up a new tent and getting my second RDWC system setup and ready for clones. I Topped a little, I Defoliated some and started taking a good look at what I would like to take for clones in the coming days. I have a few bottom branches that look every promising for my clone material on each. 3/31/2023 Week 6- Day 7 of Veg (Day 58 overall) #3 is at 16" Tall #2 is at 13" Tall

The plants continue to grow although slowly. I turned the Gavita back on this week and even at 42 inches it seems to be too much light at full power because although they're getting adequate nutrients, the leaves appear to be showing signs of damage to the chlorophyll pigments. I'd like to splurge and get the adapter and controller so that I can dim the light and slowly increase the intensity to allow for a more gradual photo acclimation period, but I will probably hold off until my next run. I've also considered adding supplemental Co2 to help the plants more effectively tolerate and take advantage of the light intensity, but it seems like a big expense for an uncertain benefit considering all of the other variables that are sub-optimal. Perhaps I'll give those Excellofizz Co2 pucks a try. Someday I'll build sealed grow room with automated Hvac, feeding, and Co2 enrichment but for now I'll soldier on and hope for the best as the flip to 12-12 approaches. More to come next week!
