I wish it was easier to upload media here. That's why is taking me so long. Stretching everywhere, she went from 3 feet to 6 feet in a heartbeat. She is running into the light. I raised the ppm because I'm going to turn 600 watts on. They look healthy, but too much legs.

lots of work went into moving these girls outside. They are in a nice sunny and protected spot now. Can't wait to see these girls grow up. Gave them the best start I could. Season is a bit late here this year too.

|»» LOG DISCLAIMER: Not intended as a grow guide. Grow log entries are usually posted 3 weeks later and are for my learning reference. ««| Introduction - Week 15 Summary - Ensign's log, stardate 17541.8, Wow what an epic grow week! First week within a 12/12 light cycle and lots of training got done! Ca-Caw! Heady OG is blowing up with tops and been tucking to spread the canopy out a bit in the front left quadrant. But also started to let the right side grow through the netting. As for TKO, been training growth upwards as she stretches through the scrog netting. Towards the end of the week, her top soil sensor started to cut out and had to swap it out with a new one. Both the Heady OG and TKO clones have been transplanted into solo cups, but Heady OG is clearly struggling. To prevent the potential loss of the genetics, decided to take two more Heady OG cuttings. Started my first batch of lactobacillus (LAB) serum and am waiting for the water to activate. Also been researching about tissue culture and think this can be the solution to preserving genetics when space is limited. Anyways, Onwards Ensign! [START OF WEEK 15] ========================================================== ---------- [ 4x4 MAIN TENT ] ---------- Heady OG BX1 #1 [Round4 ~Wk8] - WEEK 15 - Pre-Bloom [Stretch Wk1] TKO [Round2 ~Wk13] - WEEK 15 - Pre-Bloom [Stretch Wk1] ----------- [ 3x3 VEG TENT ] ------------ Garlic Budder OG#1 - WEEK 07 - Full Veg Garlic Budder OG#2 - WEEK 07 - Full Veg Gorilla Goat #1 - WEEK 07 - Full Veg Gorilla Goat #2 - WEEK 07 - Full Veg 07/28/25 → 08/03/25 This Week's Estimated Goals ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DLI: ~13 mol/m²/d PPFD: ~300 μmol/m²/s VPD: ~1.0 kPa This Week's Meter Readings & Averages ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Light On/Off: 19:00 - 07:00 | Wattage: ~326.5W [LV04] Distance From Canopy: ~31”, 27” DLI: ~15.60 mol/m²/d PPFD: ~361 μmol/m²/s VPD: ~0.71 kPa Soil %: [49.6, 36.1, 49.0, 47.1, 42.6, 43.0, 43.0, 44.6] ========================================================== Day 01 - Monday - 07/28/25 - Total Days: 106 ----------------------------------- Daily Averages ~[+01:00] - Temps: 83.6°F [28.7°C] - Humidity: 82.0% - VPD: 0.72 kPa - Soil %: [50, 36, 49, 47, 43, 43, 43, 45] ----------------------------------- - [+04:07]: Ca-Caw!! Let’s get this flower cycle started! --- Time to switch the clocks from 18/6 to 12/12 which will begin the stretch to flower! Let’s go! --- Within the AC Infinity App, --- For the Main Tent [4x4] controller, --- Changed the schedule from 'Vegetative [18/6]' to 'Flower [12/12]' --- Also made sure to sync the settings for each device. The current settings are: ------ GROW LIGHT (MARS HYDRO FC-6500): --------- The Mode is set to ‘ON MODE’ --------- The START/END times are set to 07:00PM/07:00AM --------- The SUNRISE/SUNSET Duration value is set to 20Min --------- The MAX value is set to 4 ------ EXHAUST FAN (AC INFINITY CLOUDLINE T6): --------- The Mode is set to ‘CONTINUOUS AUTO’ --------- The Temperature HIGH/LOW trigger’s value are set to 85°F/OFF --------- The Humidity HIGH/LOW trigger’s value are set to 87%/OFF --------- The MIN/MAX values are set to 1/8 --------- The Temperature Dynamic Transition buffer value is set to 2°F --------- The Humidity Dynamic Transition buffer value is set to 2% ------ HUMIDIFIER (AC INFINITY CLOUDFORGE T7): --------- The Mode is set to ‘CONTINUOUS TARGET’ --------- The VPD target value is set to 1.0kPa --------- The MIN/MAX values are set to 0/8 --------- The VPD Dynamic Transition buffer value is set to 0.2kPa ------ HEATER (AC INFINITY THERMOFORGE T3): --------- The Mode is set to ‘CONTINUOUS TARGET’ --------- The Temperature target value is set to 78°F --------- The MIN/MAX values are set to 0/8 --------- The Temperature Dynamic Transition buffer value is set to 2°F --- The only difference is the ON/OFF times for the grow light. Now lights will be on from 7pm to 7am (19:00 – 07:00). --- Everything else is identical to the previous veg schedule. --- Anyways, --- LET THE TWO-WEEK STRETCH TO FLOWER BEGIN!! - [+00:55]: Night check on the 4x4 tent. --- Ca-Caw! Looking great my ladies! --- Heady OG (BX1 #1) is continuing to blow up with more tops! The canopy is looking incredible! --- TKO is also looking great with tops everywhere! She has taken over this grow and hyped that - [+01:54]: Trained and tucked the top growth under the netting. --- Canopy is flat and even again. Great! --- Day one into the 12/12 flip and growth is looking great! - [+01:56]: Checked the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: ------------------ [ 4x4 MAIN TENT ] --------------- ------ 46% - [CH01 FT » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 36% - [CH02 FB » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 50% - [CH03 BT » G20 - TKO] ------ 47% - [CH04 BB » G20 - TKO] ------------------ [ 3x3 VEG TENT ] ---------------- ------ 40% - [CH05 BL » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#1] ------ 41% - [CH06 BR » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#2] ------ 40% - [CH07 FL » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #1] ------ 44% - [CH08 FR » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #2] --------- Veg: 38% - 45% | Flower: 45% - 55% --------- General: 30% [Dry] «| 45 - 60% [Moist] |» 70% [Wet] - [+01:59]: Checked the 3x3 veg tent. --- Mothers are all vegging along and the canopy is bushy and beautiful! --- Pots also look good too. No gnats! - [+02:01]: Checked on the propagation dome (in the 3x3), --- To refresh the air, lifted the top off for a bit. --- Clone growth looks great for the most part and getting curious on root growth. --- Heady OG looks green, but she has been very droopy the entire time. Not sure if this cutting will root, but there is no yellowing. May have messed up something in cloning. --- The TKO clone looks beautiful. incredible! --- Using a spray bottle, misted the top growth with RO water. - [+02:05]: Checked the humidifiers. --- Tanks are still full and no leaks found. --- Over the past week or so, been research about Lactobacillus and the organic benefits. Plan to give it a try and will start the process tomorrow. --- Shout out to Jeremy at BuildASoil for the YT videos and the Lacto recipe! --- LOYAL TO THE SOIL FOR LIFE! --- Anyways, Onwards Ensign! Day 02 - Tuesday - 07/29/25 - Total Days: 107 ----------------------------------- Daily Averages ~[+01:00] - Temps: 83.3°F [28.5°C] - Humidity: 80.4% - VPD: 0.78 kPa - Soil %: [50, 36, 49, 47, 43, 43, 43, 44] ----------------------------------- - [14:24]: Okay! Time to start some Lacto Serum! --- This lactobacillus serum is used to improve soil health and nutrient availability. This LAB serum can also be used to create fermented plant or fruit juices (FPJ/FFJ). --- Anyways, --- First need to make the rice wash solution! --- Filled a mini wide-mouth mason jar with 1 cup of White Rice. ------ Added 1 cup of RO Water --- Mixed the rice and water for a bit. --- Covered the jar with a paper towel and rubber-band. ------ [ ~10 MINUTES LATER ] - [14:38]: Great! --- Mixed the rice and water again before pouring a little over 1/4 cup into a mini wide-mouth mason jar. --- Covered the jar with a paper towel and rubber-band. --- The current room temps are around 80°F --- To start the microbial activation, going to let this rice water solution sit for a few days. - [14:45]: Smelled the solution through the paper towel. --- The solution smells like flour. Nothing foul. --- From what I understand the process is pretty simple: ------ Create the rice wash solution and let it sit for a few days to activate (white or brown rice). ------ Mix 1 part activated rice wash solution to 10 parts whole or raw milk. Then let it sit for a few more days for the lacto cultures to proliferate. ------ Once the milk separates into essentially curds and whey, strain out the curds and the extracted whey is the finished Lacto Serum. ------ This serum should remain shelf stable in the fridge for several months. ------ Alternatively, black strap unsulfured molasses can be added to the serum at 1 part molasses to 4 parts serum. This will make the product stable enough for non-refrigerated storage (lasts several months). ------ As for application, the serum can be used as a soil drench or foliar feed at 4mL (~1tsp) per gallon of water. --- Anyways, --- Will check on this in a day or so and am waiting until the solution turns from a flour odor to more of a sweet aroma. - [19:35]: Night check on the 4x4 tent. --- Ca-Caw!! Looking great my ladies! --- Both Heady OG and TKO are raging with more tops! -- [20:37]: Trained the top growth. --- Now starting to tuck mainly tucked Heady OG to spread growth out under the netting. --- Letting TKO stretch through the netting and only tucked the taller tops. Mainly trained the back area (won’t be able to train this once growth starts to ramp upwards) and made sure each square has at least one apical top. --- Also plucked and defoliated the Heady OG’s lower growth. Cleaned her legs and now she’s nice and smooth! --- Wow TKO’s main stalks are huge! Can really reach back area now so going to let her grow. - [20:47]: Checked the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: ------------------ [ 4x4 MAIN TENT ] --------------- ------ 45% - [CH01 FT » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 36% - [CH02 FB » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 45% - [CH03 BT » G20 - TKO] ------ 46% - [CH04 BB » G20 - TKO] ------------------ [ 3x3 VEG TENT ] ---------------- ------ 42% - [CH05 BL » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#1] ------ 40% - [CH06 BR » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#2] ------ 47% - [CH07 FL » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #1] ------ 41% - [CH08 FR » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #2] --------- Veg: 38% - 45% | Flower: 45% - 55% --------- General: 30% [Dry] «| 45 - 60% [Moist] |» 70% [Wet] - [21:34]: Checked the 3x3 veg tent. --- Ooo yea! All veg mama’s are thriving and bushy! --- Getting close to the grow light again so time for more training! - [21:53]: Super-cropped and trained the top growth. --- Pinched and bent the taller branches and lowered the canopy by 5-6 inches. - [21:58]: Checked on the propagation dome, --- To refresh the air, lifted the top off for a bit. --- Clones are growing along and hopefully rooting. --- Heady seems to be struggling, but she is still green. --- TKO is looking great and she is starting to get taller! --- Plan to check for roots in a couple days. --- Using a spray bottle, misted the top growth with RO water. - [23:07]: Time for a mini upgrade! Got a set of magnetic levels. --- Attached two levels to both the main tent and veg tent’s grow lights. --- Not really necessary, but the added levels will be useful during height adjustments. - [23:23]: Checked the humidifiers. --- Tanks are still full and no leaks found. Day 03 - Wednesday - 07/30/25 - Total Days: 108 ----------------------------------- Daily Averages ~[+01:00] - Temps: 83.6°F [28.7°C] - Humidity: 82.1% - VPD: 0.72 kPa - Soil %: [49, 36, 48, 46, 43, 43, 43, 44] ----------------------------------- - [23:36]: Night check on the 4x4 tent. --- Ca-Caw!! Looking beautiful my ladies! Wow! This is why we grow! --- Both Heady OG and TKO are looking healthy and tops are bursting through the netting! - [23:54]: Trained the top growth. --- Mainly tucked and continued to spread Heady OG out to fill in more squares in the front left quadrant. --- Did minimal training on TKO. Just letting her grow through the netting and wow growth is raging! --- Wow! The canopy is looking beautiful! - [23:59]: Checked the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: ------------------ [ 4x4 MAIN TENT ] --------------- ------ 55% - [CH01 FT » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 36% - [CH02 FB » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 49% - [CH03 BT » G20 - TKO] ------ 46% - [CH04 BB » G20 - TKO] ------------------ [ 3x3 VEG TENT ] ---------------- ------ 42% - [CH05 BL » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#1] ------ 47% - [CH06 BR » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#2] ------ 47% - [CH07 FL » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #1] ------ 40% - [CH08 FR » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #2] --------- Veg: 38% - 45% | Flower: 45% - 55% --------- General: 30% [Dry] «| 45 - 60% [Moist] |» 70% [Wet] - [+00:03]: Checked the 3x3 veg tent. --- Wow mother growth is raging again! --- Really wish I can flip these ladies to flower, but don’t have the space. --- Plan to start another round of mother cycling soon. Will probably super-crop tomorrow. - [+00:04]: Checked on the propagation dome (in the 3x3), --- To refresh the air, lifted the top off for a bit. --- Wow clones are growing! --- Heady OG is definitely going through some sort or rooting issue, but growth is still green. She is now starting to show signs of yellowing, so there may be roots, but not sure. --- On the flipside, TKO is crushing it! She looks healthy and perky! The yellowing of the lower growth along with the healthy and perky top growth means there’s successful rooting and the clone is translocating nutrients to produce root growth. I think. --- Using a spray bottle, misted the top growth with RO water. --- Oh! Also continuing to research tissue culture (TC) and have decided to give it a potential go. --- Shout out to Laur and ‘Plants In Jars!’ Her incredible YT videos have been a huge game changer and a highly recommend free resource for anyone trying to get into DIY tissue culture! --- Pretty much now I think tissue culture is the solution to my mother plant issue. --- From the little I understand, tissue culture is basically an advanced form of plant cloning and can be done quite safely at home. --- If done properly, plants suspended in tissue culture can be propagated and maintained indefinitely until needed. --- Each TC sample is basically a mini self-contained mother plant pod. --- Once needed, a TC sample can be brought back to a clone-like state for planting into solo cups. --- Aside from the technical process (which is going to be fun to learn), the largest challenge is maintaining a sterile environment during propagation. --- Anyways! - [+00:10]: Checked the humidifiers. --- Tanks are still full and no leaks found. Day 04 - Thursday - 07/31/25 - Total Days: 109 ----------------------------------- Daily Averages ~[+01:00] - Temps: 83.5°F [28.6°C] - Humidity: 81.2% - VPD: 0.75 kPa - Soil %: [49, 36, 49, 46, 43, 43, 43, 44] ----------------------------------- - [08:42]: Checked on the 3x3 veg tent. --- Both growth and pots are looking great! - [08:43]: Checked on the propagation dome, --- Clones both look bad and good. --- Concerned about Heady OG, but TKO has been healthy and perky the whole way. - [08:45]: Time to check for roots. --- Heady OG had one tiny root. Not ideal, but was actually surprised to find any root growth. Nice! --- Woah! Nice! TKO is bursting with roots! She’s definitely ready to be transplanted! --- Decided to plant both clones. Hoping that Heady OG will do better in the soil. --- Time to transplant the rooted cuttings! - [09:13]: Took 2 used solo cups (has bottom corners cut for drainage) and labeled each cup (Heady OG BX1, TKO). --- Partially filled each with some fresh (dry) BuildASoil 3.0 potting soil. --- Made sure that the soil was well packed. --- Inoculated each cup with Great White mycorrhizae along with a bit of Beauveria Bassiana. --- Misted the dry soil with a bit of RO water (~3 sprays each). ------ Sprinkled 1/64tsp of Beauveria Bassiana Plus ------ Sprinkled 1/16tsp of Great White - [09:26]: Time to plant! One clone at a time, --- Placed each clone into solo cups (also removed the clone tag). --- Made sure each solo cup had enough room for more soil. - [09:32]: Inoculated each Coco Coin with Great White mycorrhizae. ------ Sprinkled about an 1/16tsp of Great White onto each Coco Coin. --- Made sure to get the top and sides evenly. - [09:35]: Gently filled each solo cup with more soil. --- Completely covered the top of each Coco Coin and made sure to tuck the sides fairly snug with soil. --- Evened out the top soil. Each Coco Coin is about 1/4-1/2 inch below the top soil. - [09:44]: Added some BuildASoil Organic Straw Mulch to the top. --- Using the small straw bits at the bottom of the bag is great for solo cups. --- Time to water! - [09:51]: Filled a measuring cup with 2 cups of RO water. ------ Added 1/64tsp of Quillaja Saponaria Extract [60] ------ Added 1/16tsp of Horticultural Coconut ------ Added 1/16tsp of Horticultural Aloe ------ Added 1/8tsp of Mycrobe Complete --- Mixed and poured the solution straight into a spray bottle. - [09:54]: Took the dry soil weight of each pheno before watering, ------ Heady OG (BX1) weighed 261.4g ------ TKO weighed 240.9g --- Marked the starting weight on the back of each cup. --- While on a scale, --- Gently misted the straw mulch of each cup. --- Focused on the straw and sprayed as evenly as possible. --- Misted 5-10 sprays. Waited a few seconds, then misted again. --- Repeated this process until both cups weighed at least 300g --- There was no runoff. --- Oops! --- Had to slightly extend the day period (Lights usually turn off at 10:00). - [10:04]: Took the weight of both phenos after watering, ------ Heady OG (BX1) weighed 301.2g ------ TKO weighed 301.4g --- Marked the saturated wet weight on each cup. - [10:12]: Placed both cups into the propagation dome. --- Removed the side extensions along with the plug tray and have the cups resting in the main drip tray. --- Have the lid and lights suspended above the tray (~00 inches). --- Also increased the propagation dome’s bar lights. ------ Increased the intensity from 1 to 5 - [10:13]: Took general PPFD readings. ------ Clones were around 109 μmol/m²/s which gives a DLI of 7.06 mol/m²/d under an 18/6 light cycle. --- Turned the lights off and made sure that both were back to an 18/6 cycle (on from 16:00 to 10:00). --- Ca-Caw!! Done! --- Not worried about TKO, but getting concerned about Heady OG. Not sure if she is going to make it. - [14:23]: Checked on the Lacto Serum. --- The solution has been resting for 2 days. --- Smelled the rice wash solution through the paper towel. --- The odor has changed from the original flour odor but has not become sweet. However, the smell is getting there. I think. --- Will continue to check and still waiting until the solution changes into a sweet aroma. - [19:24]: Night check on the 4x4 tent. --- Ooo yea! Growth is looking beautiful and raging along! --- Both Heady OG and TKO are thriving with growth! The stretch is definitely ramping up! - [20:08]: Trained and tucked the top growth. --- Mainly focused on the Heady OG and spread her out a bit more evenly to fill in more squares. --- Wow TKO by far going to be the largest plant I’ve grown in a 4x4 tent. She’s extremely dense with healthy tops shooting up everywhere! --- Since I’m not tucking TKO anymore and she is getting taller, need to take readings and measurements. - [20:38]: Took the weekly general PPFD readings. ------ Heady OG (BX1 #1) was still around 361 μmol/m²/s which gives a DLI of 15.60 mol/m²/d under a 12/12 light cycle (at ~326.5W). ------ TKO was around 365 μmol/m²/s which gives a DLI of 15.77 mol/m²/d under a 12/12 light cycle. - [20:40]: Took the weekly height and light distance measurements. ------ Heady OG (BX1 #1) was still about 21.5" tall. ------ TKO was about 26" tall. ------ Heady OG (BX1 #1) was about 31" away from the grow light. ------ TKO was about 27" away from the grow light. --- Since Heady OG is clearly struggling to root, going to take a few more lower cuttings to make sure the genetics survives. - [20:52]: Filled a measuring cup with 1.5 cups of RO water. ------ Added 1/8tsp of Horticultural Aloe --- Mixed the solution and poured it straight into a solo cup. - [20:56]: Time to take the cuttings! --- Using a pair of trimmers (AC Infinity), --- Gently cut 2 small cuttings from Heady OG (BX1 #1). Took lower branches that did not reach the top canopy level. --- Trimmed and cleaned most of the nodes leaving the top node or two. --- Did not cut any leaf fingers. --- Made sure the tip of the stalk had a slanted cut (about 45-degree). - [21:02]: Placed both cuttings into the cup of aloe solution. --- Also made sure the cuttings were tagged. Not really necessary, but why not. - [21:05]: Placed the cup into the 3x3 veg tent. --- Have the cup resting in the propagation dome next to the planted clones. --- Going to let these cuttings soak for a day before refreshing with straight RO water. --- Let the two-day soak begin! - [21:06]: Checked the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: ------------------ [ 4x4 MAIN TENT ] --------------- ------ 47% - [CH01 FT » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 36% - [CH02 FB » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 50% - [CH03 BT » G20 - TKO] ------ 46% - [CH04 BB » G20 - TKO] ------------------ [ 3x3 VEG TENT ] ---------------- ------ 44% - [CH05 BL » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#1] ------ 41% - [CH06 BR » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#2] ------ 43% - [CH07 FL » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #1] ------ 46% - [CH08 FR » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #2] --------- Veg: 38% - 45% | Flower: 45% - 55% --------- General: 30% [Dry] «| 45 - 60% [Moist] |» 70% [Wet] - [21:08]: Checked the 3x3 veg tent. --- Looking great in the mother tent! --- Was planning on defoliating and taking new veg cuttings, but since Heady OG is struggling, going to wait a bit longer to start the mother cycling process. - [21:18]: Super-cropped and trained the top growth. --- Lowered the canopy a good 4-5inches. - [21:19]: Checked on the clones, --- Looking great! --- Heady is still struggling, but hoping she’ll perk up soon. --- TKO is looking perfect! She’s perky and I have no doubt that she’ll root just fine. --- More worried about Heady OG. - [22:08]: Checked the humidifiers. --- Tanks are still full and no leaks found.

Let’s go ladies! Wow the garden is packed and looking incredible! --- Heady OG and TKO are looking perky and stretching through the netting with nodal growth everywhere! --- By far my healthiest grow cycle yet! - [22:21]: Did a bit of training. --- Slightly tucked and spread Heady OG a bit more to fill in the front left quadrant. --- Just going to let the rest grow! - [22:25]: Checked the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: ------------------ [ 4x4 MAIN TENT ] --------------- ------ 52% - [CH01 FT » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 36% - [CH02 FB » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 54% - [CH03 BT » G20 - TKO] ------ 46% - [CH04 BB » G20 - TKO] ------------------ [ 3x3 VEG TENT ] ---------------- ------ 44% - [CH05 BL » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#1] ------ 41% - [CH06 BR » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#2] ------ 46% - [CH07 FL » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #1] ------ 48% - [CH08 FR » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #2] --------- Veg: 38% - 45% | Flower: 45% - 55% --------- General: 30% [Dry] «| 45 - 60% [Moist] |» 70% [Wet] - [22:34]: Checked the 3x3 veg tent. --- Ooo yea! The veg garden is beautiful and wow growth is raging! --- Wow! The canopy is already stretching upwards and will probably need to train again tomorrow. --- Checked on the clones, --- Nice!! Growth is all around healthy and looking great! --- Heady OG looks less droopy. I think. --- TKO is looking perfectly healthy and already getting taller! Wow! --- Nice! Both Heady cuttings are looking healthy and not droopy. - [22:38]: Time to swap the aloe water out! --- Replaced the solo cup with a clean one filled with fresh RO water (1.5cups). --- Going to let this soak for another day before transplanting into Coco Coins for rooting. - [22:44]: Checked the humidifiers. --- Tanks are still full and no leaks found.

The clones and cuttings are looking healthy and green! --- Heady OG (BX1 #1) is droopy and seems to be recovering. I think? --- TKO is looking healthy and looking beautiful! --- Nice! Both Heady OG (BX1 #2 and #3) cuttings are looking good! These cuttings are quite a bit smaller than the last round, but they are healthy and green! - [20:06]: Night check on the 4x4 tent. --- Ca-Caw! Wow the canopy is thriving! --- Heady OG is looking healthy and perky! --- Wow! TKO is stacking up with nodal branching and crowning is everywhere with perky tops! - [20:13]: Did a bit of tucking on the front left quadrant. --- Could have trained Heady OG another week in veg before flipping to flower, but oh well. TKO needed to be flipped. - [20:32]: Checked the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: ------------------ [ 4x4 MAIN TENT ] --------------- ------ 45% - [CH01 FT » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 36% - [CH02 FB » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 66% - [CH03 BT » G20 - TKO] ------ 47% - [CH04 BB » G20 - TKO] ------------------ [ 3x3 VEG TENT ] ---------------- ------ 47% - [CH05 BL » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#1] ------ 44% - [CH06 BR » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#2] ------ 42% - [CH07 FL » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #1] ------ 43% - [CH08 FR » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #2] --------- Veg: 38% - 45% | Flower: 45% - 55% --------- General: 30% [Dry] «| 45 - 60% [Moist] |» 70% [Wet] --- Needed to swap out the batteries for TKO’s top soil sensor (CH03). --- Apparently there is a slight flaw with the programing on the WittFlows. Since the watering function is based on the channel and not the sensor, when TKO’s top sensor cuts out, the new CH03 (which is TKO’s bottom sensor) takes over. --- Anyways, - [20:38]: Checked the 3x3 veg tent. --- Veg garden is looking beautiful and wow top growth needs more training! - [20:53]: Super-cropped the top growth a bit. --- Lowered the canopy a few inches. --- Growth is getting out of control! Wow! Need to take cuttings soon to start the cycling process. --- Anyways! - [20:54]: Checked on the clones, --- Wow clone growth is looking very good! --- Heady OG seems to be recovering nicely in the soil and I’m getting more confident that she’s going to make it. Nice! --- TKO is looking great! She’s going to root and will be ready for transplant in a week or so. --- Both Heady OG cuttings are looking healthy and ready to be rooted! --- Time to plant the second round of Heady OG (BX1) cuttings! - [21:13]: Filled a measuring cup with 1.5 cups of RO water. ------ Added a pinch of Quillaja Saponaria Extract [60] ------ Added 1/64tsp of Horticultural Aloe ------ Added 1/32tsp of Mycrobe Complete --- Mixed the solution thoroughly. - [21:17]: Dropped 2 Coco Coins into the measuring cup. --- The coins immediately started to expand. ------ [ ~10 MINUTES LATER ] --- Took each fully saturated Coco Coin and temporarily placed them in half-cut solo cups. --- Using a squeeze bottle filled with Clonex, - [21:38]: Gently filled each pre-made hole with Clonex rooting gel. --- Time to plant the cuttings! - [21:43]: Using a pair of clean trimmers, made a final 45° cut. --- Also stripped and scrapped some of the stem’s outer membrane. --- To help with planting, gave each Coco Coin a squeeze to loosen the coco. --- Made sure to insert each stem straight and snug with the tip about a 1/4 inch from the bottom of the Coco Coin. --- Also secured the stem by pinching and pressing in the sides of the Coco Coin. --- After both cuttings were planted, --- Temporarily took the clones out of the propagation tray. Also placed the plug tray back in. - [21:53]: Placed both Coco Coins into the propagation dome’s tray. --- Since these cuttings are both identical cultivars, no need to really name. --- Added 1/2 cup of RO water to the bottom of the tray. --- Since I’m not using the dome lid (which is currently hanging above the tray), misted a couple of clear cups with RO water. - [21:55]: Covered both cuttings. --- Will need to mist the cups for the first few days in the tray. --- While rooting the cuttings, noticed that both clones (Heady OG BX1 and TKO) need to be watered already. --- Let’s go! - [22:02]: Took the initial starting weight range of both clones before watering, ------ Heady OG BX1 #1 » 261.4g → 301.2g ------ TKO » 240.9g → 301.4g --- General Solo Range: [Dry] «| [Initial Cup Weight] + ~55-100g |» [Wet] --- All phenos were last watered 2 days ago. --- Took the starting weight of both clones before watering, ------ Heady OG BX1 weighed 278.2g ------ TKO weighed 253.5g --- While on a scale, --- Gently misted the straw mulch of both cups with RO water. --- Focused on the straw and sprayed as evenly as possible. --- Misted 10-20 sprays. Waited a moment, then misted again. --- Repeated this process for both cups. --- There was no runoff. - [22:18]: Took the saturated weight of both clones after watering, ------ Heady OG BX1 weighed 278.2g ------ TKO weighed 253.5g --- Marked the final wet weight on the back of each cup. Also marked the watering date on the front. - [22:27]: Placed both phenos back into the tent. --- Done! Grow strong little ones! - [22:33]: Checked the humidifiers. --- Tanks are still full and no leaks found. Day 07 - Sunday - 08/03/25 - Total Days: 112 ----------------------------------- Daily Averages ~[+01:00] - Temps: 83.1°F [28.4°C] - Humidity: 83.0% - VPD: 0.68 kPa - Soil %: [48, 37, 49, 51, 42, 43, 43, 45] ----------------------------------- - [08:13]: Quickly checked on the propagation dome (in the 3x3 veg tent). --- Wow the clones are looking incredible! --- Heady OG is looking better and she’s still recovering. --- TKO is looking healthy and getting bigger. Nice! --- Both Heady OG cuttings are also looking healthy and look better than the first attempt (the recovering clone). --- Misted both cups with RO water. - [19:06]: Night check on the 4x4 tent. --- Ca-Caw!! Woah these ladies are definitely in full stretch! These girls are getting taller by the hour! Wow! --- Heady OG is looking beautiful and she is exploding with upwards growth! The middle of the canopy is basically at the same height as TKO. Incredible! --- Ooo yea! TKO is crushing it! Wow! She’s a good 7 inches above the scrog netting! --- The canopy is getting stacked with nodal growth! This garden is ramping up to be my best grow cycle yet! - [19:14]: Checked the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: ------------------ [ 4x4 MAIN TENT ] --------------- ------ 54% - [CH01 FT » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 37% - [CH02 FB » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 50% - [CH03 BT » G20 - TKO] ------ 41% - [CH04 BB » G20 - TKO] ------------------ [ 3x3 VEG TENT ] ---------------- ------ 41% - [CH05 BL » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#1] ------ 47% - [CH06 BR » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#2] ------ 47% - [CH07 FL » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #1] ------ 49% - [CH08 FR » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #2] --------- Veg: 38% - 45% | Flower: 45% - 55% --------- General: 30% [Dry] «| 45 - 60% [Moist] |» 70% [Wet] - [19:16]: Checked the 3x3 veg tent. --- Wow veg growth is raging with health and vigor! --- Mothers are looking beautiful and canopy is bushy! --- Nice! Clones and cuttings are looking healthy! --- Misted the cutting’s cups with RO water. - [19:46]: Back in the 4x4 main tent, --- Decided to tuck Heady OG a bit more and tried to spread the growth in the front left quadrant. --- Growth is going to be uneven but I think the left side will eventually even out. I think. - [19:54]: Quickly checked on the auto-watering system. --- System is still charged and no leaks or kinks found in the tubing. - [19:58]: Checked the humidifiers. --- Tanks are still full and no leaks found. --- Another week done and the garden is vibing and thriving! --- Next week will be the end of the stretch phase and as growth slows down, will hopefully see signs of budding. --- Ca-Caw! Stoked for this grow and can’t wait until these girls start to flower. - [+02:20]: TKO’s soil sensor cut out again.. --- Swapped out the unit with a new one and re-synced the channel to correct sensor ID. --- The old sensor got water damage. Going to try to dry it out, but really glad I have a couple spare units. --- Also glad that TKO seems to be taking the extra watering without any issue! May try to increase the soil moisture average next week for both pots. --- Anyways! Onwards Ensign! [END OF WEEK 15]

Had about 8 leaves on the right hand side of sundae driver go yellow but I'm figuring she's just relocating nutrients 😌 buds are getting thicker everyday but of course not fast enough

Yo, what’s up, friends! Harvest day is getting closer 😍 Cannalope Haze is pretty much ready, but I’m holding off until Sleepy Joe catches up — I think just a few more days. The trichomes are mostly milky, with a few amber ones showing, which is exactly how I like it for a more uplifting effect to keep me productive throughout the day. For drying, I’ll hang the plants in my tent and aim for 20°C and 60% relative humidity. Let’s see how it goes—I’m excited to see the final result. Stay tuned for updates!

(UPDATE) Not bud rot, cabbage worms. Lame. Purchasing some BT killer. The week was going good until I (may have had a delusional) found some potential Bud Rot! I took photos and asked a question, no answer yet. So I cut the potentially infected area away and will monitor very very closely.

Nothing special, everything is actually working. Clearly once my water was at the right temperature, no more worries. The flowers arrived at 12/12 + 11 with the trichromes that pop, it starts to be pleasant! So of course, I'm not going to break any records on this RUN but in any case, I've eliminated a lot of "novelty" and mistakes that I'll make more. I'm counting on the run I'm re-launching to blow all that up, I'm going to go for a performance goal The stretch is off to a good start, it should settle down around 12/12 +21 - 28, so I will place my second net next week. I have done a defoliation. I change the soup in 2 days, so my solution lasts 10 days. I have a slight over-fattening, but really nothing serious, I will switch to an EC of 1.8 - 1.9 instead of 2.0. and I will observe. Here we can see the delay of one of the plants, it's as if I was shooting with only 3 plants. Next time, only one strain, same size of cuttings and passage by cuttings and RDWV DIY mandatory before passage in the V-system. Next week, I change the brand of fertilizer for the RDWC, I go to Athena, I will introduce the PK of Athena which according to their recommendation starts at the 21st day at a rate of 2ML/L. I turn with the base sensi bloom a and b + athena pk Otherwise, I receive the parts this week for my RDWC DIY system for growth, I'll make it with my friend and I'll test it and I'll give you a feedback on the next update, especially since I'm going to restart right away, I'm going to do 10-15 days in cuttings and then I'll go to the RDWC DIY system for growth until I finish the FLO of the V-SYTEM and then I'll go straight to the next one. I'm going to put my LEDS at 80% which is the MAX recommendation of SANlight without c0² ( I don't forbid myself to grow at 100% in week 5-6, I'll see... )

Voltage, also known as electric pressure, electric tension, or (electric) potential difference, is the difference in electric potential between two points. In a static electric field, it corresponds to the work needed per unit of charge to move a test charge between the two points. In the International System of Units (SI), the derived unit for voltage is named volt. The voltage between points can be caused by the build-up of electric charge (e.g., a capacitor), and from an electromotive force (e.g., electromagnetic induction in generators, inductors, and transformers). On a macroscopic scale, a potential difference can be caused by electrochemical processes (e.g., cells and batteries), the pressure-induced piezoelectric effect, and the thermoelectric effect. Since it is the difference in electric potential, it is a physical scalar quantity. A voltmeter can be used to measure the voltage between two points in a system. Often a common reference potential such as the ground of the system is used as one of the points. A voltage can represent either a source of energy or the loss, dissipation, or storage of energy. Dropping the temps will slightly raise the humidity, air holds less % water the colder it is. Lights on 25-35rh% the same water content will spike to 50rh% + at night just by dropping the temps. At night all the juice photosynthesis has been storing up is mashed and mixed up to make all the goodies we need for bud, water is used to transport all these things everywhere, like little solvent transport devices, once a nutrient/protein has been delivered to destination the plant needs to get rid of all this excess water molecules it was using to transport. The only solution at night is to spit it back out into the air at night. During the peak of flower, this can catch a grower unaware, with a 4x4 full tent it can be a challenge to control all that moisture exhaust overnight especially if you're really pushing the limits. We live in a water world, above or below, our misconception is we live on dry land, we don't live in less watery conditions than above or below. We fit into a very narrow band of moisture that just so happens to be full of lots of air and everything else required for life. Got my first full whiff of the smell of purple lemonade, always surprises me how accurately the smell fits names, the dominant terpenes in the Purple Lemonade weed strain are carene, linalool, limonene, and myrcene. Carene gives this strain its sweet, citrus flavor and some woody notes, whereas the linalool I recognize so well from Granddaddy Purp. Myrcene has been shown to have sedative qualities while bringing musky, earthy elements to the flavor profile. Trichome production started to ramp up, and the plant that grew taller/closer to UV showed noticeably thicker coatings. The taller plant shows slight yellowing of lower leaves, and the smaller plant is green and lush but the buds are slightly less progressed, interesting. I super-cropped the main stem of the tall one just over a week ago (clean). I expected it to be the one slightly behind in development. The plant has roughly 10-15% "Total resources" that it keeps in case emergencies arise. Reserves if you will. My rationale behind breaking anything goes hand in hand with slowing things down as production is lost due to the time it takes to repair damage. I recall watching a YouTube video, where a curly hair gentleman would super crop in a manner to damage but not disrupt using a twisting method, using fingers and thumbs placing them close together one goes clockwise other counter clock this varies a lot depending on the thickness of stem but what you wait for is a tiny snap, it may take several rolls to weaken if walls are tough I found. No snapping or bending of the stem, you want just to fracture it but not puncture this way the xylem and phloem channels remain flowing,the damage is repaired almost instantly and the 10-15% is dispatched with very little repair time. Everything in the general vicinity of the stress will now grow stronger so as to prevent further similar damage. This is why I had expected the tall one to lag behind in development once I had cropped it but low and behold it worked and the tall one has slightly more developed buds. The effects of birdsong on plant life may at first glance be far-fetched. Nigh on ten years ago an article appeared in Nexus Magazine on the discovery or invention of a method of growing plants using bird sounds. Christopher Bird and Peter Tompkins describe the development of Dan Carlson’s Sonic Bloom in their book The Secret Life of Plants. Many others have, it seems, recognized the role of birdsong in the growth of plants, and influenced or directly helped Carlson to develop his invention. Dan Carlson’s desire to see that no one need be hungry through shortage of food sought to understand the optimum growth of plants. He discovered that plants also feed from ‘the top down’ as well as the roots. Underneath all leaves are pores called stomata which open to take in nutrients and moisture from the air. Carlson’s observation that the more bird life there is on the farm, the more abundant is plant life, has been echoed by farmers throughout history, except in modern times. Where there is little bird life, plants are stunted, and dwarfed. Nature has the birds sing at dawn and dusk, which dilates the stomata, and so feeds the plants. One can immediately see the importance of trees. The development of Sonic Bloom was to create birdsong, which is played to the plants, while a foliar nutrient is sprayed onto the plants at the same time as they are being stimulated by the sound, to enhance their growth. This method produced fantastic results in the amount of abundantly nutritious produce from one plant, often in poor soils and in drought conditions. Carlson showed that the breathing leaves of plants are the source of the nutrient intake for growth. This of course is also true for humans—the breath is food. We shall discourse on this on another occasion. Plants transfer nutrients to the soil via this breathing, and Carlson showed that his plants improved the soil and helped earthworms proliferate. The secret of Sonic Bloom was the development of the music of the same frequency as the dawn chorus of the birds. With the help of a Minneapolis music teacher, Michael Holtz, a cassette was prepared. It seems that both birds and plants found Indian melodies called ragas delightfully suitable. This is actually quite profound, although the American farmers, especially women, who had to endure this music whilst it was played to the plants, found it irritating. Holtz found the “Spring” movement of Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons appropriate and concludes: “I realized that Vivaldi, in his day, must have known all about birdsong, which he tried to imitate in his long violin passages. Holtz, it is related by the authors Bird and Tompkins, also realized that the violin music dominant in “Spring” reflected Johann Sebastian Bach’s violin sonatas broadcast by the Ottawa University researchers to a wheat field, which had obtained remarkable crops with 66 percent greater yield than average, with larger and heavier seeds. Accordingly, Holtz selected Bach’s E-major concerto for violin for inclusion on the tape. “I chose that particular concerto,” explained Holtz, “because it has many repetitions but varying notes. Bach was such a musical genius he could change his harmonic rhythm at nearly every other beat, with his chords going from E to B to G-sharp and so on, whereas Vivaldi would frequently keep to one chord for as long as four measures. That is why Bach is considered the greatest composer that ever lived. I chose Bach’s string concerto, rather than his more popular organ music, because the timbre of the violin, and its harmonic structure, is far richer than that of the organ. Birdsong has long been loved but also studied with reference to the musical scale and harmonics. As Holtz deepened his study he said, “I began to feel that God had created the birds for more than just freely flying about and warbling. Their very singing must somehow be intimately linked to the mysteries of seed germination and plant growth. The spring season down on the farms is much more silent than ever before. DDT killed off many birds and others never seem to have taken their place. Who knows what magical effect a bird like the wood thrush might have on its environment, singing three separate notes all at the same time, warbling two of them and sustaining the others. Tree and bird life are essential to Earth's existence, which Carlson, Holtz, and others have shown, but indeed others see and feel. “Plants”, says Steiner, “can only be understood when considered in connection with all that is circling, weaving, and living around them. In spring and autumn, when swallows produce vibrations as they flock in a body of air, causing currents with their wing beats, these and birdsong, have a powerful effect on the flowering and fruiting of plants. Remove the winged creatures, Steiner warns, and there would be stunting of vegetation. Nothing more needs to be added here. It has been said that you cannot hurt the humblest creature or disturb the smallest pebble without your action having a reaction upon something else...You cannot think of an evil thought, no matter how private, without it having an effect upon somebody else. Whatsoever you do in life sets up some form of resonance. When I say the morning chorus of the birds awakens the earth I mean that the characteristic song of the birds sets in motion a series of vibrations which react upon other forms of life. Remember, the soil of the earth is full of living microorganisms. The plants are also living organisms. You, yourselves, are living organisms. Now, this is the beauty and wonder of it all—when one aspect of nature has been moved into a state of resonance it immediately relays its vibrational motion to something else. So when I say the dawn chorus awakens the earth I literally mean what I say. I do not suggest that the earth would come to a standstill without the bird song, but I do mean that life on earth would be sluggish and ineffectual without that first instigating outburst of vibrational power poured forth at just the right pitch and tone to set off a chain effect. I know some of you will say, what happens in those parts of the world where there are no birds? Well, what does happen? Very little, I assure you. The hot deserts and the polar regions where there are few, if any, birds are not renowned for their wonders of nature. It is as though they are asleep. Nothing grows, few things live. Little resonates and there is a great stillness over everything. You see, that outburst of sound just before dawn is like the little lever that works the bigger lever which turns the wheel which moves the machine…and so on. Never underestimate small things. Animals are blessed with instantaneous and unthought-out wisdom. They are in direct contact with God and they act and live as though they are fully aware of it. Men are also in contact with God, but most of them act as though they have never heard of God because they are largely veiled from their divine center by their own thinking minds of which they are so proud.
