60x60 cm tent in a 1920's peek-in-closet Oversized vent for silence High power DIY LED True SoG 12/12 from seed with 15 plants in 2L pots Watering all plants in bottom tray with 30% of total pot size (10L) WEEK 1 DAY 1 - Germinated in paper towel DAY 3 - Planted into pots + Lights ON at 125w DAY 5 - All plants have broken soil DAY 7 - Slight stretch - Light at 185w WEEK 2 Two of the Iced Out are lagging behind, others are on point - I'm trying to push light and nutes to the max. Extraction fan (AC infinity Cloudline T6) on level 2. DAY 13 - First full watering (10L) with 20 ml Canna Terra Vega DAY 14 - Circulation fan turned on (low) during lights on WEEK 3 Good growth, two Iced Out still lagging DAY 18 - Light at 225w, Extraction fan on level 3 during lights on DAY 20 - 2nd watering, 8L with 30ml Vega + Light at 250w DAY 21 - On point, mostly :) Could've pushed nutes a bit more from the go WEEK 4 DAY 24 - So far this week I'm just kicking back and watching them do their thing. The two lagging Iced Outs are trying to catch up. DAY 26 - Watering 10L with 50 ml Vega (one day too late...) + light on 300w (max) DAY 28 - 4 weeks from popping the seeds, looking good except for the two Iced Outs, one of them is trying to get with the program, the other... Well, some plants are just pricks. WEEK 5 I think this is the week we'll see them take off :) DAY 29 - Plants are starting to show sex, removed 2 Urkle Mints males, the other two are females, the rest are fems so we're down to 13 female plants total with only a single weakling DAY 29 - Watering 8L with 50ml Vega (shouldn't have been later than today!) DAY 33 - plants exploded over the last 4 days and most are stretching and starting to flower DAY 33 - Watering 10L with 60ml Vega (feeding Vega once or twice more then we switch to Flora) DAY 35 - Just cruisin' 😎

Adding SLF 100 and Calmag to feeding. Although everything seems good, I'm going from tap to RO to have maximum control over my PPMs or TDS. Buds are really developing nice and she is still stretching. I appreciate any suggestions. ( Running CalMag, Photosynthesis Plus, and SLF 100)

Increíble crecimiento esta semana, prácticamente ha doblado su tamaño. Incluso Critical #2 ha superado en tamaño a su hermana mayor. Critical #1 ha crecido algo menos, pero ha echado bastantes yemas y pistilos. He tenido que doblar las puntas para que no se estiren demasiado. Supongo que la bajada de temperaturas y el aumento de humedad esta semana ha ayudado. He bajado la luz un poco para que penetre por los bajos y he cambiado los nutrientes para que empiecen ya a engordar las flores.💪 Se nota que quieren más alimento, todo lo que le eche se lo comen en 2 días. 😜

A relatively hassle-free week this one was with only one minor hiccup at the start of the week when the automated watering timer switch reset itself again. A quick trip to the hardware store to return sorted that out and no issues since with the new timer switch. It may not look like it, but this plant is seriously neglected. I have physically checked on it twice over the last week. With the remote cam I’ve setup I can see when things are going well, I’ve even worked out if I switch on the microphone at the start of the watering cycles I can hear the initial release of water which was how I picked up the fault with the automated watering so soon. It’s like the more I neglect the better this grows! Having everything dialed in, in particular the watering has simplified the process and to date I’ve never had an indoor as happy as this one is. This plant has had to deal with high heat, cold cold nights, cramped conditions, no control of humidity, not a single water PH test (think good quality tap water has been my savior here) and it’s like it’s asking for more to be thrown at it! The weather was everywhere this week. Had a couple of warm days with the hottest October day in 5 years recorded early week which really raised the internal temp of the grow tent, peaking @ over 32c….yup that’s way too hot I know. Lucky I had the shed door open to improve ventilation on the hot day, if the door was closed possibly 40C internal temps would’ve been reached. When a hot sun hits a tin shed with no insulation the heat is only amplified that’s for sure and why all my previous indoor grows have been done mid autumn to early winter. Good thing is as the lights turn on early afternoon the temps were only raised for a bit over 3 hours during the 18 hour light cycle. At least once the sun goes down maintaining a constant temp isn’t an issue. After the hot days, well of course the cold returned and once again the heating bars are busy keeping things warm. The next 7 days the weather is looking very agreeable, just what’s needed for a tin shed grow! Everything’s fattening up nicely, buds are plentiful, sticky and the aroma is getting strong. Amazing progress it’s made the last week and I couldn’t be happier with how it’s going. I’m tempted to say it’s progressing way too well as space is a challenge in the tent that’s for sure, in all directions! A couple of the taller stems are way too close to the light and I’m seeing some foxtailing of buds. I’m sure it would be happier with more space at the sides but there’s nothing I can do about this so not worth worrying about things I can’t fix. I couldn’t be happier anyhow, this is the indoor grow I’ve been wanting as my previous 2 the rewards weren’t quite there. Pretty sure I’ll be rewarded handsomely with this one in 3 to 4 weeks’ time anyhow.

This is the last week. They are currently in the dark getting ready for Chop, Chop in a day or so. Only doing water this week. Checked my TDS and it was around 80PPM. Pretty low since we have added the RO system. The smell hits you when you open the cab like a freight train. Some smelly treats in there! Going skiing in a couple weeks. So stay tuned for next grow! 😎

Looking healthy, hoping it'll be a girl. I'm ready to get my hands on some Blueberry OG again, I haven't had it in over 2 years. I remember it being a relaxing but still alert & dissipating my daytime migraine.

Last week went well. She is growing up at a good steady rate. Hope it continues like this for another week in veg and I think it will be a decent sized auto for being in a 3 gallon container. I started lst training and because of how fast it grew,.it started to split the plant in the middle at the base of the branches. To avoid it splitting and causing damage, I did some supercropping to help even out the canopy some. That's the main goal of the week is evening up the branches.

Hello all and welcome back to my grow. First and foremost it would be awesome if you would please hit that like and follow button and feel free to leave a comment. Much appreciated 🙏! I hoping for some good growth this week and planning on topping all the plants for the first time. I'll also be adding a air intake fan and filter this week. This will help maintain levels of CO2 in the tent as well as bring in warm air to help maintain Temps. Also once it's not below zero degrees lol ill connect the intake to draw air from outside which will be cooler. The air intake is coming into the tent from the bottom and then exhausted back out. The air intake will also allow me to turn up my outtake without the issue of negative pressure. I'll also be adding all organic organacide prevention measures this week. The ladies are still coming out of a week where they were over watered. Most of them are looking good, one has dry leaves and not looking hot. I'm thinking she will pull through as there is still new growth daily. Day 15 Feb 15th- No water today. Topped Tahoe OG today. I miss counted nodes and wished I would have waited one more node, but oh well. Day 16 Feb 16th- No water Day 17 Feb 17th- All plants received 30 ML of water directed at the stem as well as a foliar spraying to wet the top of the soil. Added air intake. Humidity set back to 65. Gently bent leaves down to expose undergrowth Day 18 Feb 18th- plants had explosive growth over night 😁. All plants recieved 90 ML of water. Water had Mykos. Gently bent leaves down to expose undergrowth. Day 19 Feb 19th- all plants recieved 1 solo cup full of water. Only one plant had a tiny bit of run off. Plants looking healthy. Day 20 Feb 20th- No water today. Turned on air intake. Turned off humidifier. Day 21 Feb 21st- No water today. Upon inspection at end of light cycle from yesterday saw fungus gnats. I assume it'd from the previous overwater and never letting soil completely dry. Drying soil.. have neem oil ready to go if need. Upon inspection if lights on same or less gnats. Only about 5. Trimmed first leaves and singles from all plants.

Una delle 2 Gorilla 🦍 è in carenza con puntini color ferro arrugginito e foglie 🍁 molto chiare oltre che la fioritura sembra leggermente indietro rispetto alla sorella 👧 tutto perché all inizio della vegetativa ho fatto esperimento con lo zucchero e non l’avessi mai 👎 fatto 😅 Ora proverò a sciacquare 🚿 con acqua a ph neutro in abbondanza sperando di togliere i sali in eccesso 🤞😃

Often, marijuana growers who have their plants in indoor grow tents or rooms with artificial lighting, take into account parameters such as temperature and relative humidity to maximize plants growth and bloom, thus obtaining abundant harvest with top quality flowers. As we will see later, these factors affect different processes of the plant, such as transpiration or nutrient uptake. However, we usually forget about another important factor that is related to the aforementioned ones: vapor pressure deficit or VPD. Broadly speaking, VPD is the difference between the amount of water vapor that the atmosphere is able to retain (which depends on temperature) and the amount of water vapor contained in it (relative humidity). It is usually measured in kilopascals (kPa). Providing our plants with a correct relationship between temperature and relative moisture will keep us on the right VPD parameters, increasing the plant’s activity and thus improving its growth and showing its full potential during the flowering phase. The ideal would be to adjust both parameters (temperature and humidity) to get the best possible VPD value, so that the development of plants will be amazing.In the chart above you can see the right temperature and moisture values to maximize the development of cannabis plants. The green zone shows you optimal values of VPD, in which it would be ideal to maintain the environment. The orange zone shows correct values, in which plants should not have problems to develop normally. However, red areas show values in which your plants will be very far from hit their full potential, since the relation between temperature and moisture is not optimal. With relatively high values of VPD (between 5 and 12) plants tend to open their stomata and release a considerable amount of water vapor into the environment (increasing their transpiration). This increase in transpiration results in an increase in the plant’s photosynthetic activity, which will need more nutrients and will improve its overall growth, both during growth and bloom. The best range is between 7.5 and 10.5, which we have marked in green. However, we must be careful that VPD is not too high (dark red zone) since the plant would close its stomata to avoid releasing too much water vapor to the environment, which would result in fast dehydration due to excessive transpiration. On the other hand, if VPD is too low (light red zone), the plant will also close its stomata for not releasing more water into the atmosphere, which in this case would be already saturated (it would have reached the maximum water retention capacity in a specific temperature). In this way, reducing transpiration will also reduce photosynthesis, which has a direct impact on the plant’s development and yield. That way, VPD is essential when it comes to offer the best conditions for the development of plants, also to understand its water requirements according to the nutrients used and thus adjust them correctly to meet the grower’s expectations. N/B: SAY NO TO DRUGS -[Day 90] The plants are getting massive, not a lot of space left in the room, each pictures are token back against the wall or on top of a chair. The Super Skunk shall be ready first , the trichomes are visible without using a microscope, the scent is like an amazing candy floss coated with Skunk pee 😅Boerejongens quality @Home 😊 -[Day 93] Switching Buld Lumatek 90000 Lumens 1000PAR to SuperPlant Super Red 85000 Lumens 2000K 1498nm Lightening under the 1500nm wavelength (2000K) just between the NIR and the Microwave length, can't stand in the room too long without getting tears and shining eyes. Buds shall start to blowup like pineapples, increasing yield. -[Day 98] Everything is getting frosty. Starting to decrease RH . -[Day 103] Today the Y Griega started to push on her terpenes, believe it or not that plant smell stronger than the 6 giants Skunks (the Skunk strain is already a very strong smelling plant), she smell like a coffeeshop front door, the fragrance is absolutely amazing and fantastic, I will definitely grow a full crop of that strain ! -[Day 105] 42 days of Blooming folks ! It's getting serious now 😄 If it can helps you to realize, each plants gots 4 side and a middle, each sides gots 4-6 buds and there's 5-6 buds in the middle, there's 11 plants of 1,60m/5.25ft, how many buds does it makes ?? The correct answer will win 1 like 😅😂😅😂 -[Day 106] WEEK 7 of flowering, the end is close my friends, I'm trying to give you the best shots as possible, I wish I'd could share a good smoke from this crop with you guys ....😉 -[Day 113] WEEK 8 starting, every beginning has an end, this is where the Fall is gonna start. -[Day 115] LADY'S AND GENTLEMEN !!! In the Indica's category the winner is .... ruuuuummmmmbbbbbllllleeee ..... VANILLA KUSH !!!!!! I've seriously tough the Super Skunks will be ready first, but Vanilla Kush has shown milky tric's after 52 days of Blooming, waiting for some few ambers tric's before starting the Flush.

Week 6 Summary: First off, Happy New Year!! Ciao 2018, may 2019 be filled with peace, love, joy and dank buds 😄😉 Day 36-39: Started off nice well this week, considering the amount of defoliation I did on day 35. Some more stretching going on here but not too much, except 4AM3 has a central shoot I couldn't find a spot to LST that just started to shoot right up lol. Starting to show some nice frost on Day 36 too. 4AM2 is already starting to plump up a bit, don't think will get much more stretch on that one, seems like it will probably harvest the least. I might have overdone the defoliation on it on Day 35 lol. 4AM2 is the one I decided to top for the hell of it anyway because it had a really wierd growth mutation. Still, with less main tops to produce it might be the best bud of them all 😅 Day 37-42: Day 37 is when I started seeing a deficiency I thought might have been magnesium on 4AM1. Pictures to show up top. Since their next feeding wasn't scheduled until day 42 I waited. Day 38 and it had spread a little on the same plant, and typical calmag deficiencies started slowly showing up on a few other plants(really tiny amounts). I posted on reddit and pretty much confirmed my suspiscion of a calmag deficiency. Since I am watering twice a week, once with calmag ph'd to 6.8-6,9 and once with blume nutes ph'd at 6.3-6,5. The calmag feeding was done on day 42( as scheduled at full strength this time so hopefully the problem will go away. 4AM2 hasn't been watered yet, pot didn't feel completely light yet(plus she had the most runoff last feed), will get her dose tomorrow. P.S. Really starting to smell like sweet berries! Mmm.. 😍 On to week 7!

Day 28 flowering: Hi all. The mango girls are continuing to swell with lots of fresh pistils and looking nice and crispy too. They are all beginning to smell so sweet of the mango that they take their name from. A real subtle smell that I haven't had before in a strain . The 3 older plants have been stripped out a littlenand some of their big fans removed for airflow but I did not go too aggressive on them as I did not want to slow them down too much They are not too tall and would easily train even lower for a stealth grow. The buds themselves are a nice thickness and show some promise to join up in the coming weeks for mini donkey dicks.( sorry for the term but easiest verbal to visual cue.lol) I initially thought the node spacing on a few was a little wide but seeing how they are forming , this is less of a concern. the #4 at her day 21 is looking ok but her pot had feed pellets used as the nutes and she may be too overfed. I will use just water for her future feeds now. I am very impressed with how easy these are growing and with very little effort needed from me now beside waterings. I am hoping by keeping so much of the leaf intact that it doesn't stop the development within the deeper canopy. There are some really nicely forming buds in there so airflow is a vital concern now they can only get even fatter from here lol be safe and well.
