26.1.25: I have had a mistake ๐Ÿ˜• i spilt some Fish Mix as I was experimenting with a syphon from some aquarium tubing I have. Unfortunately, I forgot to take the syphon out! Ugh ๐Ÿ˜ฃ However, it is fish emulsion and very thick consistency. Therefore, I was able to scrape it up with 2 of my business cards up off the counter. So added this extra into the next 2 ltr solution I mixed. All plants were watered with at least 1ltr of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.3. Containing the following nutrients;- โ™ก 3ml Seachem Seaweed โ™ก 4ml Biobizz Fish Mix โ™ก 4ml Biobizz Bio-Grow โ™ก 3ml Biobizz Bloom โ™ก 2ml Xpert Nutrients Bloom Booster โ™ก 2ml Xpert Nutrients Cal-Mag โ™ก .25g Ecothrive Biosys. โ™ก 2.5g of Bicarbonate of Soda as PH UP. Unfortunately I have broken my PH pen too. Accidentally submerged it under water, then the readings went crazy. I'm leaving it to dry by standing it up but I'm most likely going to need a new one, which is extremely annoying ๐Ÿ˜‘ I'm going start implementing the Scrog net probably some point next week if I let the plants that are in flower to just grow up now, as I do believe that I stunted Watermelon ๐Ÿ‰ by using too strenuous LST. Hopefully the plants still are able to grow upwards at this stage during flower for all the Purple Punch P1, P2 and P3. We will soon see! 28.1.25: My PH pen has packed up ๐Ÿ˜ฃ I've got to wait to get another. It's super annoying ๐Ÿ˜‘ so I'm just judging by memory how to regulate it. Unfortunately, that's my only choice! I'm also out of the dechlorinator ๐Ÿ˜• things are not going very well this week so far ๐Ÿ˜… I guess we will have to make do, until I can get replenished. 29.1.25: I removed all the plants, hoovered, and disinfected the tent. There were several accidents when watering, causing some debris and splashes. I decided to just go ahead and get a few other things done. It's crazy how quickly things can become neglected! ๐Ÿ˜ฃ So I defoliated moderately on all plants except Gorilla Cookies seedling. I have absolutely dropped the ball on my lighting situation! My light was much further away than I thought! I turned it up to 100% and dropped it down to just under 2 feet away. After I reset the tent, I set up my scrog net. I removed 80% of all LST pegs. I am planning on letting the scrog net take over the training from here. I really want to minimise the risk of mould, so I decided to start using my dehumidifier. It has raised up to 73% RH this week, so it's necessary. Hopefully, I will be able to get my dechlorinator and PH pen soon! That's kind of essential to me. It's been a little bit of a stressful day in the garden, to be honest ๐Ÿ˜… 30.1.25: So I am expecting the arrival of my new PH pen today, as well as my new bottle of Ecothrive neutralise. It is supposed to measure the TDS and EC in addition to the standard TEMP and PH, which I had previously. Obviously, time will tell if it's any good or not. I realise, much too late now, that my lighting is very insufficient for this many plants. I need double the watts at least, and coverage is very poor. I remembered I had an old LED floor lamp, which was in a corner being unused. I decided to take the stand off, and Zip tied the pole onto the tent pole at the back left corner. I have no idea what the wattage is, and it's quite pathetic ๐Ÿ˜… but I mean, I might as well use it, being as I definitely cannot afford more lights! ๐Ÿ˜ฃ Next grow, I will probably only grow 2 plants, max 4, and just use larger 7-10 Gallon pots. Being as I ran out of dechlorinator, I only watered some plants properly because I only had enough to make 6 litres. When my pen arrives, I will get everything properly watered. 31.1.25: The leaves of several plants are showing signs of iron deficiency. This is likely due to my PH pen packing up earlier. I now have a new pen. Due to this, I decided to use my Seachem Prime, which I use for my aquariums. As I wanted to get them watered properly, and my Ecothrive Neutralise hasn't arrived yet. I watered each plant with 1ltr of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.0. I added .25g Ecothrive Biosys to the water. May give them a breather on the nutes and just use the Cal-Mag and Biosys. Being as I've just topped dressed with rich fertilisers, I'm sure that will be OK for the next several waterings. Snipped another couple leaves which were annoying me ๐Ÿ˜… I realised this is one of the pots I put my clay pebbles the bottom of. So I've probably not been watering enough, as she's right at the back, and assuming all was good because the pot was heavy. I went ahead and gave all the plants a thorough watering each with: 2ltrs of dechlorinated water, PH'd to 6.2 with:- โ™ก 4ml of Xpert Nutrients Cal-Mag amino acids. โ™ก 4ml Biobizz Bio-Grow โ™ก 4ml Seaweed extract liquid Going to keep an eye out to see when they need more in next couple of days. They're all looking very well, except the slight colour fade on Bubble Kush

11-09-2021: Today is day one of my veg-stage. I hoped for 15 ladies but I only got 14. Maybe the not germinated Runtz will come up anyway so I put her in the system too. Everything is refreshed now and I will just be waiting to the point where I can top the ladies which I am planning to do at least once. 13-09-2021: The not germinated runtz didn't make it so I have replaced her with another Purple Haze. Great seeds from wietzaadjes.nl. Still hoping for the Runtz though. One of the purple haze looks a bit yellow :(

Good little week I had, plants have grown a bit since I last updated. #1 - 43cm #2 - 36cm #3 - 37cm #4 - 22cm #5 - 46cm #6 - 49cm The Liverworts have also grown a bit as well, happy with that little update. Some of the plants have been beginning to get fragrant. One of them smells exactly like the seeds branded label "Cake or Pie or Cola" but I won't tell you what one just yet, I was shocked and amazed, another is very gassy/fuley/diesely, no note of fruits whatsoever. The rest are al fruity but nothing screaming strawberry. I'm expecting them to mature much more as time goes on and when they enter the curing stage. Still looking like they want more nutrients, was in the upper limit of what I thought they would tolerate well. 1.4EC maybe I push for 1.6EC - 1.8EC Till next week

Pow pow and welcome back ๐Ÿ™…โ€โ™‚๏ธ Week3 of Flower starting today. Last week stretched those ladies very nice and now we can see that power is going to bud production ๐Ÿ˜ Checked the stems and the highest one is reaching 45 inches tall itself. Absolutely delighted ๐Ÿ˜ƒ We are cutting Roots Excelurator and CalMag Extra from the regime as they will not need it anymore. Iโ€™m still struggling a lot with high humidity levels hitting 70-80% quite often - still, there is good exhaust system and lots of air movement with temperature between 21-26. For now completely no sign of Mold or bugs ๐Ÿœ ๐Ÿคž Stay tuned and look for daily photo updates ๐Ÿค˜ Update Day4 (day 18 of flower) Buds starting to fill the whole tent everywhere I look ๐Ÿ‘€ Invested in RAM 10l dehumidifier and now both girls are in sweet point...second advantage - Iโ€™m getting back free 0ppm water ๐Ÿ˜ Stay tuned!

Week 12 in the garden, and it's time for some serious plant pampering! The ladies got a trimming fit for royalty, and even a leafy lollipop treat โ€“ because who says plants can't enjoy a little sweetness in their lives? With the flipping of the plants just around the corner, it's like the calm before the botanical storm. I can almost hear the plants whispering among themselves, "Get ready, folks, it's about to get real in here!" As I prepare for the flip next week, I can't help but marvel at how far my green companions have come. From tiny seeds to leafy giants, it's been a journey filled with laughter, love, and a whole lot of growth. So, here's to Week 12 โ€“ a week of trimming, lollipops, and anticipation for the flip. Stay tuned for more leafy adventures as we enter the next chapter of the garden saga! ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿญ

Day 43. Light is on max output, heat enormous and they RUN !!!! thought intensity will stop them a bit , but i think i do only worse ... We have +30 heatwave in UK, i live in attic , so for 4 more days everything will be out of control. Watered today. 6.3 phed water. I love simple and affordable Mars Hydro products, if you can cope with heat TSL2000 can do magic in your tent ! Will update after heat wave us over. Should be in 4 days back to +20 ;))) Day 45. They GROW !!!! Distance is insanly small, but i have 30 cm of space left, wont move light for a week, then i will try to have 20 cm at least again. Planing last top up, need two more waterings before it, so it should be on last day of this or first of next week. Thinking to take down all LST at that time, need pots to breath better, too thin fabric, they dont keep form. Day 47. Drink every two days !!! 4 liters goes to nothing !!! Huge, still streching, tops almost rubbing TS2000, heat 30 inside, humidity 65-68 ..... will need heavy clearing again !!! Devil is looking droopy because was just watered. Happy Growing !!!!

This lady is showing beautiful roots and a fast growth pace, let's see how she keeps developing every day guys, finally this beautiful lady was Transplanted on February 2nd after 17 days planted from seed because I thought it was the right time considering her size and also because the pot was completely conquered by those super healthy and strong roots, let's see how this lady keeps performing so far! ๐Ÿ’›โค๏ธ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐ŸŒพ๐Ÿ’ฏ

Starting to get some real buds now. Color in leaves changed within 3days. Had me super nervous I screwed up the plant. Thought I was dealing with a ph issue because of how early the leaves changed colors. Green spots on leaves are from me not turing down the light fast enough.
