26.1.25: I have had a mistake 😕 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 😣 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;- ♡ 3ml Seachem Seaweed ♡ 4ml Biobizz Fish Mix ♡ 4ml Biobizz Bio-Grow ♡ 3ml Biobizz Bloom ♡ 2ml Xpert Nutrients Bloom Booster ♡ 2ml Xpert Nutrients Cal-Mag ♡ .25g Ecothrive Biosys. ♡ 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 😑 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 🍉 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 😣 I've got to wait to get another. It's super annoying 😑 so I'm just judging by memory how to regulate it. Unfortunately, that's my only choice! I'm also out of the dechlorinator 😕 things are not going very well this week so far 😅 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! 😣 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 😅 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 😅 but I mean, I might as well use it, being as I definitely cannot afford more lights! 😣 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 😅 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:- ♡ 4ml of Xpert Nutrients Cal-Mag amino acids. ♡ 4ml Biobizz Bio-Grow ♡ 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

Sponsored grow 👉WeedSeedsExpress👈 Week 7 / Flower week 3 2/23-3/1 Week 7 flower week 4 Love Potion is in flower, the buds are puffing out with many white pistols. Trichomes are just starting to form Love Potion got her first defoliation removing fans and any bud sites and more pins added on 2/24. Since I have overfed my gals, this week I am trying to remove excess fertilizer from the planting medium by giving ph 6.5 water only. I am hoping since Love Potion is behind the other gals, I’ve addressed the over feeding issue and she will not show burnt tips and look pretty out her life. Ph 6.5 Temp 65 Thank You @WeedSeedsExpress for the opportunity to grow your strains. Your likes and comments are appreciated. Thanks for stopping by. Growers love 💚🌿 💫Natrona💫

Week 7 VEG – The White OG (Seedsman Seeds) This week was all about shaping, training, and refining. We stepped into the art of mainlining, guiding her structure into perfection while giving her the space to shine. A little seduction, a little discipline, and a whole lot of plant love. 😏✨ 🌿 Mainlining: The Art of Balance Mainlining isn’t just training—it’s sculpting. By evenly distributing energy and growth, we create a strong, symmetrical plant that’s ready to thrive. 🔹 Topped and trained – Ensuring equal energy flow and balanced growth. 🔹 Leaving two nodes per branch – Structuring her for a powerful, even canopy. 🔹 Guiding her gently – With the right support, she bends but never breaks. 🍃 Defoliation: Light, Air, and Growth Less is more when it comes to defoliation! The goal? More light penetration, better airflow, and a happier plant. 💡 Removing lower leaves – Redirecting energy to the most important growth points. 💨 Improving airflow – Keeping her environment fresh and reducing moisture buildup. 🌞 Allowing deeper light penetration – No more shadows, just pure, even growth. 🔥 The Studio Treatment This week, she got the VIP studio treatment—out of the tent, under the lens, and shining against that sleek black background. Sometimes, you just have to appreciate the beauty of the work in progress. Tent Conditions & Feedings 🔸 Temps: Around 18°C – a little chilly, but she’s handling it like a champ. 🔸 RH: 60% – Keeping that balance for steady veg growth. 🔸 Feed: Still running Aptus Holland’s organic-mineral lineup—strong, steady, and full of potential. 🔸 Lights: Future of Grow LED, 200 PPFD—keeping her compact and thriving. 💚 Shoutouts & Love Huge thank you to the amazing sponsors and supporters! 🌱 @Seedsman @AptusHolland @FutureofGrow @TrolMaster @ProMixSoil @Cannakan 🌍 Special shoutout to the entire Grow Diaries family, the followers, the lovers, the haters—this one’s for you all! 👀 New episodes dropping weekly on YouTube!

Due to movig home some stress was caused, and it’s expected she will stay in veg for a bit longer. I am surprised how little feed is enough for an autoflower. I’m checking the ph and ppm in the tray daily and adjusting the feed accordingly.

(Have been thinking about it, decided to just do both runts under one diary and just using the Green Sensation on them both. Had only used growdots on the other one, but will be bringing the other runtz into this diary aswell) Beginning to add the Green Sensation nutrients this week. Really curious to see how she looks in the next 2 weeks now that its being added!. But these Runtz are growing well, looks great to me so far nothing crazy , bit different pheno then my other grow but I'm happy with both .. Can't wait to see how they flower fully. Not much else was done, I do regret not training but wanted to let it do its thing , didn't have the space for anything big (I never go for massive, one of these days I'll veg longer tho just for the experience of it) Had cut off a handful of leaves that were laying on each other. Did alil form of lollipoping but not extreme. And only plan besides Green Bay is the Recharge will also be used 1x weekly. Lights are currently around 32 DLI roughly 700/750ppfd off the top of my head. I'm thinking around 40 I may push to peak but we will see, no added CO2 besides environmental atleast its above 500 pretty steady raises to 8/900 amd alil higher when I'm in talkin shit to them. The water input is picking up in frequency aswell. Watering every other day still due to how cold it is they are drinking slow but their just about 3/4s of a gallon currently.. Temps have been way lower this run then I really wanted just last heater I had decides to quit on me.. big area so tough to replace that thing and of course it was just out of warranty lol by 2 months. The one is getting some purples on it this one's pretty light green , ec is in range after a quick lil media test, had been curious if she was hungry so decide to check did alil runoff when watered prior to feeding the plagron. Ec was fine and PH was alil low so bringing that up as I feed. Besides that tho , their smelling really sweet.. literally like a pack of runtz already ...anxious to get to smoke some of my first try at a runtz plant! As always I appreciate everyone's time checking these things out.. thanks for your support and encouragement. And another big thank you to Zamnesia and Plagron for throwing this together!! Been a fun contest so far.. Beans: https://www.zamnesia.com/uk/ https://www.zamnesia.com/us/

3/3 MONDAY 12 am. They are doing great, the supplemental lights are helping. they cost about 60 for the AC Infinity germination kit. I think the 2 lights are enough so it’s cheaper to get another Germination setup with the lights for my 2.8x2.8 tents. 3pm they all took quite a bit of water. feeding into the bottom of the container is very beneficial to the plants. Wish I would’ve known about that sooner I made a video of how I do it. 3/4 4am looking good. 130pm
