Week 2: Light Struggles, First Adjustments & the Patience Test Update: 14.03.25 Good morning, grow fam! Week 2 of my photoperiod journey is running – a mix of challenges and small wins. Here’s a look at the early days of my Blueberry and Durban Poison seedlings. Current Observations: Light Deficiency & Stretching Stems The first days post-germination were intense: The seedlings developed extremely long, thin stems (check the photos!), a clear sign of insufficient light. Since I’m intentionally avoiding extra lighting to save resources, I had to improvise: - Tray Rotation: I rotate the seedling tray multiple times a day to ensure even exposure to the weak March sunlight. - DIY Support: For the most stretched seedlings, a bent wire acts as a crutch to prevent them from collapsing. Interestingly, the tomato and cucumber plants in the same tray show no issues – their stems stay compact. Seems like veggies are better adapted to low-light conditions than cannabis! Nutrients & Alfa Boost: An Experiment Even though my Biobizz Lightmix should provide enough nutrients for the first weeks, I tested a sample of Alfa Boost (freebie from the grow shop) during watering. The product claims to boost roots and stress resistance – perfect for my light-stressed babies. So far, no negative reactions, but no explosive growth either. Slow Growth – No Cause for Concern The plants are growing just millimeters per day, but that’s okay. My focus is on building sturdy, resilient plants, not speed. Once days get longer and sunnier, growth should pick up. They’ll stay indoors until mid-May anyway – plenty of time to bulk up. Next Steps & Tweaks - Transplanting in 1–2 Weeks: Once the first true leaf pairs emerge, they’ll move to small pots with my Biobizz All-Mix blend. - First Topping Soon: Once the plants hit 4–5 nodes, I’ll top them to encourage bushier growth. Week 2 Takeaway: Patience is key! Even in suboptimal conditions, I trust Dutch Passion’s resilient genetics. Fingers crossed for greener progress next week. My goal is to stabilize the grow under the given conditions. Until then: Stay curious, enjoy the journey – stay blazing 😉 Smoking_Joe_Frazier

I welcome all my like-minded people who are in different parts of the world. I thank everyone who provides moral support to Russian plant growers. 👍 It's me again-an underground Russian grower with some experience with different strains of cannabis. Subscribe to my diary if you want to follow my progress and learn a lot about the life Of Russian growers, and the difficulties they face every day👊 Today my have my plants 62 day life. 9 weeks. today I visited my underground production. As I will have difficulties in financial investments, I had to collect from improvised materials additional ventilation and air filtration. In addition, I installed forced ventilation at the entrance with a computer power supply. Bubblelicious Auto-with the genetics of this cannabis variety I was familiar before, so knew what to expect from these plants. I can say one thing, it is the most delicious and sweetest sort of marijuana I grow. Also, it produces a lot of oils which I think it is suitable for extraction or cooking cannabis food. I look forward to the harvest Neville's Haze Auto - this variety of cannabis shows an unprecedented strength in growth, its flowering only in the early stages, and should take a long time before its full sexual maturity. In addition, I made my girls an intimate haircut, so that their genitals become like full-fledged women. In General, I'm doing well, thanks to this resource and the advice received here, I manage to fight with the stench, I'm free and I'm not going to finish my activities. Until next time. 😉

PK boost was added for this week as lower fans were starting to show serious PK deficiency. Defoliated about 25% of each plant, basically the lower fans/growth that was not getting light. Added some CFLs in a tent dark spot

A big hello to all the cannabis growing gardeners...and all the other visitors that came across my grow journal. This week was very relaxing, i add only PH+ (again ;), Calmag and PowerZyme. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Now cannabis smell is overpowering in my grow room I can finally write something about Spider Farmers 6-Inch Inline Fan with Smart Controller and Carbon Filter :) As my grow room gets really stinky at times i always invest in a top shelf carbon filter almost twice the size of the one provided by Spider Farmer, to my shock Spider Farmer carbon filter absorbs the smells wonderfully well. No smell leaks and that just when the fan is running at 5 out of 10 levels of output. The smart controller is something completely new to me, and had a lot of fun experimenting with it during the veg and early flower, when the smell began i needed it to run full time at level 4 or 5 to rid the fragnance. All in all the whole combo is a great deal. If you are not as keen on technology the set without the controller is awesome on it's own. But to have some extra options open, the controller at the device throws at you a ton of settings you can use to optemiase you grow enviornment. The SE 7000 is hanged at 28 cm. over the canopy and runs at 550W. This whole grow's main sponsor is Spider Farmer. You can easily obtain all the great grow equipment we use at: spider-farmer.com A big thank you to Jessie and the whole Spider Farmer crew for supporting me with the newest technological advancements in horticulture. Thanks to them what i do here is possible. Thank you SeedsMafia for giving me the opportunity to try out your stock. seedsmafia.com/en/feminized-cannabis-seeds/moby-dick-feminized.html Plagron did send us their Contest package for the Power Buds competition . Thank you for your visit, please leave a like and hope to see you beck here in about a week.

This week they did more stretching as you can see the one on the left is into and above the light! I can't believe this but I'll role with it! I slowly defoliate just a little here and there between watering and filling the humidifiers. They really like to eat! Also, something to note that is they love the humidity as well as the warmth. I had to clean the outside of their grow bags this week. To my surprise the roots are starting to come out the bag! I can't believe it but this is awesome! Now they'll die due to contact with the air, and in return get bigger to take in even more nutrients! As predicted they fell off because their little pieces are on the floor. Well I fed and watered them daily. Like normal whenever I fed them either nutrients or soil amendments I made sure to water the plants with plain pH balanced H2O the next day in order to flush them. Then I would do any soil amendments if needed. After that plain pH balanced H20 and then you could do another fertilizer nutrient for them. After that pH balanced H20 and then you return to the soil amendments if needed. That way every other day you're feeding soil then pH balanced H20 then nutrients then pH balanced H20. This will allow you to monitor pH imbalances, nutrient burn, or any subtle changes you need to make you can catch it before it happens hopefully!

What an adventure guys, we got to the end without even realizing it, as a famous Italian politician would say "they didn't see me coming", the F1 Hybrids can play this trick, they get to the end without you even realizing it. They are damned, indeed blessedly faster, it is the flower that forms more quickly, it goes from hairs, to small buds, to mature buds in a truly record time. One plant finished in 59 days and the other in 65, and we are not talking about little grass produced, we are talking about at least 100 grams but also something more. I tell you guys, try these F1s from Zamnesia, they are a rocket, as I was saying above of course you have to grow in ideal conditions or you have to try to get close to them, don't think of keeping the humidity at full blast during flowering and having good results. Don't think of overwatering and overfeeding and having good results. The plant must be observed, kept balanced and it is not easy at all. If you keep this balance, look at the color of the leaves and pay attention to the basic parameters, you will really harvest a lot of weed. Then if you want to grow as it comes, be careful, these plants are IDEAL FOR BEGINNERS. There is no better way to get easy, good and fast results than growing an F1 of Zamnesia. The resin is 10 and praise, my gloves were full of charas from gloves in both harvests and smoked it is divine. They were both harvested with the pistils more or less at 70% - 75% and the trichomes mixed: some amber, mostly cloudy and some transparent. Read the explanation of Zamnesia on instagram the best I have ever read if you want clarifications on the moment of harvest. My advice is NOT to let the plant go too far, maturity is fine but then the THC decays and even the Sativas become with physical effects. Therefore more mature on indicas and even a little less on sativas. I can't wait to vape it. Plagron's gruel gave us a lot of strength and vigor now we are simply in flsuh with Canna's product // Strain Description // If you were looking for a reliable, versatile and accessible strain, here it is. Blue Cheese F1 Automatic by Zamnesia Seeds uses F1 genetics to produce uniform, rewarding and easy-to-grow plants. This strain stays small, so you will have no problem finding a place to grow it. After just 10 weeks from seed, you can enjoy tasty buds with relaxing effects. - Strain — Get a seed of this fantastic strain - https://www.zamnesia.io/it/10673-zamnesia-seeds-blue-cheese-f1-automatic.html - Fully organic soil and fertilizers --- https://plagron.com buy at www.zamnesia.io - Growbox and ventilation system --- https://www.secretjardin.com/ - Light — P2000 - https://www.viparspectra.com - Music and sound --- I made my girls listen to 432hz frequencies and black music from www.radionula.com - Z --- You can find these seeds, much more from the world of cannabis, mushrooms and an incredible series of accessories and gadgets on the reference site not only mine but of many growers ---- https://www.zamnesia.com
