Ca continue à gonfler 🤩. Les trichomes commencent à atteindre la maturité. Plus que 4 à 5 jours

Posting the phenos when I do them

There's really nothing new for this week, the plants growing rapidly.

Outdoor coco 15g pots Progress: Lava cake is about week 6.5. Starting to ripen and get heavy. Buds are getting fat. Strong sweet cookie/ ice cream smell. Buds are getting more frosty. Buds are getting so heavy I installed a net on 3 of 4 and doing #4 soon. On my most mature plant - About 25-30% of pistils have turned color. Some trichomes are milky, none amber. Looks like plants are a few days apart. Marathon OG week 5 1/2. Still stacking and getting fat. Smells dank. Trichomes are showing up. The 20 gallon OG is growing into a monster. I’m still waiting for the heavy bud stacks…. Nutes: Bumping up ppm, the dry koolbloom and molasses, stopping regular koolbloom and grow. Looking to starting flushing the lava cake in a week or so. Feeding 2x a day; 3x on hot days. Weather: Had a good week of cooler temps until yesterday, when it was 97. Looking at hugs in the 80s this week, perfect. Pests: The moths and caterpillars are in full swing so I’m applying BT every morning. I’m working hard to reduce caterpillar 🐛 losses. We lost all of the top colas on a plant in another location 💔 . I’m only losing one bud at a time and not the entire colas so far. Wishing fat buds and monster harvests to all.

Overall , Lets wait what the weeks brings.

Start of week 4. This girl stretched another 3 inches during week 3 and her bud sites continued to pack on size and take shape. She is the hungriest of the 4 plants I'm currently growing, I increased her feeding by a liter.

A new version of the classic. The old classic strain now improved and in auto version! Just like the name suggests. Expect up to 500gr/m2 of super big buds. Ideal for beginners. Top-quality buds without much maintenance or extra effort. Indica-dominant hybrid. A relaxing high that comes hand-in-hand with a pleasant head buzz.

Blütetag 42. Wächst und gedeiht. Ca. 3 wochen noch bis zur ernte 😎

I needed a bigger reservoir, runoff catchment, and dehumidifier drain bucket because I had to go out of town for 5 days. Fortunately I calculated the volumes accurately and so when I got home I had at least another 24 hours of solution in the rez, and space in the runoff and dehumidifier catchment buckets. The other fortunate thing is that I came home to very happy and vigorously growing plants. The tallest colas are now 30 inches above the coco, and 20 inches from the light. There is one cola (pictured) whose stem is as thick as a sharpie! I ran out of the AN base nutrients and decided to switch over to GHE because the PH perfect buffers in the Advanced Nutrients line have been a huge pain in the ass. Also, I decided to mix my own bloom booster from Potassium Sulphate (0-0-53), Monopotassium Phosphate (0-52-34), and Epsom Salt after finding a DIY recipe (https://www.thcfarmer.com/threads/diy-hammerhead-confusions.47992/) to achieve a (0-9-18) NPK ratio. Significantly cheaper, but will be interesting to see what the results are in the end. I will be doing one more heavy defoliation on day 21 of flower because there are so many fan leaves laying on top of each other that its hard to keep the humidity down. Stay tuned!

Had a good week, buds popped up all over the place. Gonna be a good harvest.

🥒 Project Blue Tent – Week 8 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Pheno B (Folder 14B) Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of Project Blue Tent! 💙🌱 If you're discovering this diary for the first time, welcome aboard! Project Blue Tent follows four individual plants from seed all the way through harvest, with each phenotype receiving her own dedicated diary. All four sisters share the same tent, lighting, irrigation, nutrition, environmental conditions and overall training strategy. The idea is simple: Keep the variables as consistent as possible and let the genetics tell the story. And this week... The story is getting very interesting. Because all four girls have entered flowering with absolutely no intention of slowing down. Today we're giving the spotlight to Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Plant B. And once again... She's shining. 💙🌱 ──────────────────────── 🌸 Week Eight – Flower Has Arrived The Blue Tent has officially entered the next chapter. After seven full weeks of vegetation, we're now running 12/12, and the response from the plants has been immediate. Plant B is now sitting around 81 cm, compared with approximately 60 cm when we finished the vegetative phase. That's a serious amount of growth in a very short period. And what's particularly impressive is that the plants aren't simply stretching upward. They're developing everywhere. The branches are extending. New growth is appearing rapidly. Flowering sites are becoming more obvious every day. And the first real signs of bud development are now beautifully visible throughout Plant B's structure. This is the point where all those weeks of preparation start becoming meaningful. The SCROG gave us the structure. The defoliation opened the canopy. The training created the framework. And now... Flowering is filling that framework. ──────────────────────── 🌿 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Plant B Plant B continues to be one of those girls that makes me stop and look twice. Her foliage is lush, vibrant and beautifully green, and the overall health of the plant is exactly where I want it to be. The developing flowers are progressing quickly, with fresh pistils and new growth appearing throughout the canopy. And despite the speed at which she's developing, she's still maintaining a remarkably even structure. That's something I really appreciate about this phenotype. She has always been a cooperative plant. She responds well to training. She builds strong lateral growth. And even now, with flowering underway and the stretch accelerating, she's still giving us a canopy that is relatively easy to manage. At least... As easy as four extremely vigorous plants can be. 😂 ──────────────────────── 💥 Super Cropping – Keeping the Canopy Under Control The biggest challenge right now isn't getting these girls to grow. They've already made that part very clear. The challenge is managing how quickly they're growing. We're continuing to use super cropping on selected branches as another tool for managing the most vigorous vertical growth. The idea is to reduce the dominance of certain shoots, redistribute growth and encourage stronger branching points as the plants continue developing. And these girls are making me work for it. I'll carefully work a branch down... Come back later... And somehow it's already standing back up again. 😂🌱 They're determined. But that's actually what makes this stage so interesting. We're not trying to stop their natural growth. We're trying to work with it. The canopy is already very even, and we're simply making small interventions where necessary to keep the most aggressive growth from getting too far ahead. Whether we'll successfully keep everybody compact throughout the stretch? Well... Let's see. They certainly haven't read that part of the plan. ──────────────────────── 🌸 Bud Formation – Things Are Moving Quickly One of the most exciting changes this week is the speed of flower development. We're only at the beginning of flowering, yet Plant B is already showing beautiful formation throughout the canopy. The sites we've spent weeks creating and positioning are now beginning to transform. Pistils are appearing. Clusters are becoming more defined. And every day there's another little sign that tells me: We're properly in flower now. This is one of those moments where you can finally see the purpose behind all the earlier work. The individual branches aren't just branches anymore. They're becoming future flowers. And Plant B has plenty of them. ──────────────────────── 🌱 Seven Weeks of Vegetation – Was It Too Much? Looking at Plant B now, I'm still wondering whether I gave these girls too much vegetative time. Seven weeks of vegetation is considerably longer than I normally run. Usually, I'd flip earlier. But the extra time gave us something valuable: A very established canopy. Strong branches. A developed root system. And a structure capable of supporting a lot of flowering growth. The downside is becoming very obvious now. These plants have an incredible amount of momentum. They grew from roughly 60 cm to around 81 cm incredibly quickly, and they're still moving. So there is definitely a little bit of: "What have I created?" 😂 happening in the grow room right now. But worrying about it isn't going to make the plants grow slower. We've prepared them. We've trained them. We've opened the canopy. We're managing the stretch. Now we watch. And we see where these girls want to take us. ──────────────────────── 💡 Strong Light From the Beginning The transition into flowering also means we're starting with approximately 800 PPFD across the canopy. I want these girls to have strong light available from the beginning of flower rather than slowly creeping toward higher intensity. They're already extremely vigorous, so the idea is to give them the photons they need while closely observing how the canopy responds. The challenge is balancing that strong light with the environmental conditions and the very significant stretch we're already seeing. I'm particularly interested in seeing whether the combination of strong light and continued canopy management can help keep the plants from becoming excessively elongated. Because if there's one thing Plant B has demonstrated this week... It's that she has absolutely no shortage of energy. ──────────────────────── 🌡️ Blue Tent Environment The room continues to run with remarkably consistent conditions across all four sisters. This week's recorded averages were: • 🌡️ Day Temperature: 27°C • 🌙 Night Temperature: 27°C • 💧 Relative Humidity: 67% • 🥥 Substrate Temperature: 24°C • 💦 Nutrient Solution: 19.1°C • ⚗️ pH: 5.81 • ⚡ EC: 2.09 mS/cm • 💨 CO₂: approximately 666 ppm • 💡 Light Schedule: 12/12 • 💧 Irrigation: approximately 1.4 L/plant/24h • ? Pot Size: 8 L • 📏 Plant Height: approximately 81 cm One thing that continues to stand out is the relatively small difference between day and night temperatures. We're sitting around 27°C for both. That can contribute to continued stretching, and considering how quickly these girls are already growing, it's something I'm keeping firmly in mind. But for now, Plant B is responding beautifully. Healthy foliage. Strong development. Rapid flower formation. And no obvious signs that she's unhappy with her environment. ──────────────────────── 🥥 Feeding – Supporting the Transition The flowering nutrition is now established. Current feeding: • Plagron Hydro A — 2 ml/L • Plagron Hydro B — 2 ml/L • Plagron Hydro Roots — 1 ml/L • Plagron Power Buds — 1 ml/L • pH Plus — 0.03 ml/L • pH Min — 0.03 ml/L Current EC: 2.09 mS/cm pH: 5.81 The plants are consuming aggressively and developing extremely quickly, so the nutritional strategy is now supporting that transition without making unnecessary changes simply for the sake of changing something. Plant B's colour is exactly what I want to see. That beautiful, lush green foliage is telling me that she's handling the current program very well. And when I look at the flowering sites developing throughout the canopy... I'm certainly not seeing a plant asking me to interfere. So for now: We stay consistent. Observe. Measure. Adjust only when necessary. ──────────────────────── 💧 The Drip & Drainage System – One Continuous Loop The automatic irrigation and drainage setup has become one of my favourite parts of this project. Plant B is now receiving approximately 1.4 litres of nutrient solution every 24 hours through the drip irrigation system. The process is beautifully simple. The drippers deliver the nutrient solution directly to the coco. The solution passes through the substrate and feeds the root zone. The resulting runoff drains into the collection trays underneath the grow bags. From there, the drainage pipe carries the water toward the pump. The pump removes the collected runoff and returns it toward the reservoir, creating a recirculating irrigation and drainage loop. Water goes in. The plants use what they need. Runoff is collected. The pump moves it away. And the system continues its cycle. It's a remarkably elegant setup when everything is working properly. And right now... It is working wonderfully. The plants are growing rapidly, their water demand is increasing, and the system is keeping irrigation consistent without requiring me to manually water four increasingly thirsty plants every day. That consistency is especially valuable in a project where we're deliberately trying to keep the four sisters under comparable conditions. It's another variable we can keep controlled while we watch the genetics express themselves. ──────────────────────── 🕸️ Managing the Canopy During the Stretch The SCROG has already done its main job. Now we're using the structure we've created to manage flowering growth. The canopy remains impressively even. There are no huge dominant towers completely taking over the room. Instead, the flowering sites are distributed across the surface we've spent weeks building. But the stretch is happening quickly. So we're continuing to watch the taller shoots and selectively using training and super cropping where necessary. This isn't about constantly manipulating the plant. It's about making small corrections before a branch becomes a major problem. A little intervention now can be much easier than trying to fix an overly dominant branch later. And Plant B has responded very well so far. She's stretching... But she's stretching into a structure. That's exactly what I wanted. ──────────────────────── 🌿 Plant B's Personality Is Still There This is one of my favourite things about Project Blue Tent. From above, the four sisters can look almost identical. Same tent. Same lights. Same irrigation. Same nutrients. Same environment. And yet... Spend enough time with them and their personalities start becoming obvious. Plant B remains one of the more naturally cooperative phenotypes. She's vigorous, but her structure remains usable. She's growing rapidly, but the canopy hasn't become chaotic. She's producing flowering sites quickly, while maintaining that beautiful green foliage we've been watching since vegetation. And now she's showing another characteristic: She doesn't seem particularly interested in slowing down. 😂🌱 Which, honestly, is a pretty good problem to have. ──────────────────────── 🌸 From Canopy to Flowers There is something incredibly satisfying about looking at Plant B now and remembering what she looked like only a few weeks ago. Back then, we were talking about: Topping. SCROG. Empty squares. Branch positioning. Defoliation. Canopy management. Now we're talking about: Flowering sites. Pistils. Stretch. Bud formation. And eventually... Bulk. That's the transition we've been working toward. The plant has moved from building the machine to using the machine. The canopy is the foundation. Now the flowers get to take over the story. ──────────────────────── 👀 Looking Ahead The next couple of weeks should be fascinating. All four sisters are moving incredibly quickly, and Plant B is right there with them. We'll continue managing the canopy as needed. We'll keep an eye on the stretch. Super cropping will remain one of the tools available when individual branches get too ambitious. The irrigation system will continue providing its consistent cycle. The flowering nutrition will continue supporting development. And the environmental conditions will remain under close observation. Most importantly... We don't need to panic about the speed. Yes, they're growing fast. Yes, I may have kept them in vegetation longer than usual. Yes, the warm nights aren't exactly helping us keep the stretch compact. But the plants are healthy. The canopy is remarkably even. The flowers are forming beautifully. And Plant B is looking absolutely fantastic. So... Let's see where this goes. 🌸💙 ──────────────────────── 💙 Thank You A huge thank you to Zamnesia for making Project Blue Tent possible and for giving us the opportunity to explore these Pickle Lemon Haze F1 genetics phenotype by phenotype. A heartfelt thank you to Plagron for the Premium Growbags and Hydro nutrient line supporting these girls throughout their journey and now through the beginning of flowering. A special thank you to Zamnesia for the Phytonaut LED lighting helping us create such a strong, even canopy and now providing the intensity we're using during the transition into flower. And a massive thank you to Mars Hydro for the automatic drip irrigation and drainage system. Watching the drippers, coco, runoff collection, drainage lines, pump and reservoir work together has been incredibly satisfying. The system has become an important part of keeping the entire room consistent. Thank you as well to GrowDiaries for providing a place where growers from around the world can document their journeys, exchange experiences and learn together. And finally... Thank you to everyone following Project Blue Tent. 💙 Plant B has officially entered flowering. She's stretching. She's building flowers. She's producing lush, beautiful growth. And she's making it very clear that seven weeks of vegetation gave her plenty of momentum. 😂🌱 For now, the canopy remains beautifully even. The flowers are developing quickly. The super cropping is helping us manage the most ambitious branches. The irrigation system is doing its job. The nutrition is supporting the transition. And Plant B... Well... She's simply shining. Four sisters. One environment. One experiment. And four plants that somehow manage to make every week more interesting. Let's see what the next chapter brings. Until next week... Growers Love, happy growing, and take care everyone! 🌱💙

That was the most difficult week. It was very cold and rainy, the humidity of the air reached 90% at most, but without sequels, thank God. On day 63, I defoliated and she is strong, fat and definitely smells like cheese.

pH imbalance seems a little late to correct so imma let it slide n harvest on d 12th week after 48hours dark , ey yawww

Day 77 Day 19 of flower- Lots of tricomes are starting to form all around the bud sites. Buds are starting to increase in size. Lots of white hairs too. Watered with 3 liters per plant with the nutrients up above. Raised the light up to 30"from the canopy. Day 82 day 24 of flower - Spots were traveling fast so I cut off all of the leaves with spots. Watered Plants A and C with 3 liters per plant of plain distilled water. Flushed plants B and D with 10.25 gallons of distilled water. Ppm was 1500+ when I started got B down to about 700 or less and D should be around 1000 or less. I ran out of water or I would have done more. Day 83 day 25 of flower- This morning looks like nuts burn of Plant B and it looks like it's over watered on a few leaves.

Week 6 / On the way to week 6 , the majority of trichomes are clear/transparent, the buds are well developed but not finished yet. We will start gradually reducing fertilizers from now toward week 8–9. 12/12 switches : 12/06/2026 Back: Frosted Grape Front left: Purple Cookie Front right: Stick Berry Watering remains moderate: ~600 mL for the larger plants and ~300 mL for the smaller ones, with 1 L being the maximum applied so far.

I took David Robinson's tip a little late " dont grow small flowers" So I took anything that was taking away from the main coals. Of that works out in my favour I will have to find out !! There is a large story behind there fine ladies . But for now let's just say f*ck cancer.
