Using a Rhaspberry Pi 4 to automate the watering and a TP-link 105 smart plug to automate the Viparspectra P2000 LED grow light. You can see how I automated it here: https://hackaday.io/project/188129-rhaspberry-pi4-basic-watering-system-for-balcony Basically, this is an "Automated Watering how-to Guide for Dummies" - as simple as technically possible. You still require some basic command line expertise, but the steps have been proven and I provide links to the gear I used AND the Node Red code, making this EASIER than anything else I've seen online. Harvesting soon.

Hey Growers. It’s going great around here. These girls are happy, healthy and growing like mad. They’ve chunked up so much that they’re starting to lay down. It’s just a couple at the moment so I’ll keep an eye on them and see if intervention is needed. The trichomes are so gritty it feels like table salt between your fingers and the Cali has a orange/lemon citrus and woody scent. The Jack is sour skunk and the cookies Kush is a sweet sugary scent. I’m not 100% sure if they’re fox tailing from light stress or just natural Kush characteristics. I’ll be keeping an eye out for hermie’s and stress. I’ve added some Green Planet Rezin, as I think it’s awesome and helps with aroma and makes oily terps. I’m thinking this will be my last top dress and I’ll probably just do half dose and top up with monster bloom for the next couple waters then drop everything except cal and Rezin. Happy Growing 🌱

Week 5 Flower is Done day 36 The Ladys just got water but now Look Like they got signs of deficiency maybe ill give them more Bloom fertilizer im not too happy with the size of the buds but maybe they thicken up in the last weeks of Flower

Soddisfatto del mio lavoro? SI ASSOLUTAMENTE SI . Questa è la mia prima esperienza nel campo della coltivazione della cannabis e sono veramente contento del risultato, ma non devo cantare vittoria troppo presto adesso manca la seccatura e la concia speriamo bene ahahah 🤣

Day 56) 11/18 is the end of another week. I measured her today and she's 15” but not done stretching yet. Week 8 day 56 pic 2 btw is a pretty good indication she's a she. I had some bumps along the way this week. My work schedule changed a bit all of a sudden and I lost touch with this girl and she suffered some drought time. Then if that wasn't enough I was shooting video of her and turned the fan system off so it wouldn't record the noise and accidentally left it off (just took a hit of gelato #33) for around 30+- hrs and wife told me the ceiling of the tent was sweating big droplets when I called her from work. Came home/ next day off / cleaned it all up/ wiped it with a light bleach water/ aired it all out and now she is very happy and my schedule is back on track 😅👍 Happy Growing and Happy Harvesting

In week 3 of flowering, the ladies suffered from nutrient deficiency. Due to vacations, they had SPA water only for a week. I immediately added nutrients to the water tank, with an EC of 1.8 I will also add green sensation starting this week. I also defoliated them, all the affected leaves are almost all gone.

DAY49 7 Weeks Buds are hard. Smell is extreme. Very limited amount of spidermites under some leaves. No reason to exterminate them, because next week I'll probably harvest the plants. The smell of the Triple G is fanastic, Big separated buds. The Cookies Gelato are more sativa style of buds than I'm use of them. There leaves are turning purple. The Liberty Haze has a lot of small leaves in the buds, and thet got amasing blinking white flowers. Probably this will be the plants I'll harvest the last, because they need some extra flowering time. The Wedding Gelato is creamy, lots of trichomes and is fast flowering. But some flowers got budrot. I'ts hard to get the humidity low because of the rainy and misty autumn outside.

They have started to stop their stretch and started to work on the flowers! You can already see trichromes starting to show some cover! You can smell the terpenes getting stronger by the day! It’s another level of excitement from here! Stay tuned.

Oh yeah fungus gnat infestation in my do si dos, spread to my early flowering jack herer’s and I panic chopped my 2 lime daiquiri’s probably 2 weeks early, fuck me!

Bonjour à tous, Voilà les nouvelles d'aujourd'hui, Très content mes fifilles poussent de jour en jour (normal) je les regarde grandir tout les jours et toujours avec autant d'amour je les aimes mes Fifilles 😊. J'espère que mes petites Mutantes vont pousser correctement, à voir 🙂 je vous à plus tard et bonne journée à tous les Amis 😉👍👍👍

Got the filter that could be used to clean the tap water, so we changed the water in the system to be filtered water and make some upgrade on the system.

Hello everyone 😎 Week 5 of flower for the Cherry Cola auto from Fast Buds 💥🍒 She grew fast with a beautiful green color,for the nutrient 4ml/L terra bloom & 1ml/L power buds from Plagron Next week Green sensation at very low doses ✔️ Spider Farmer SE-7000 70% Have a nice day 😋

This week I added a new controller to handle up to 8 functions. I installed a new heater, my old humidifier and some LED strips to the controller. Targeting a VPD at 1.0 day and night. Trying to keep the nutrient ppm under 900 and ph at 6.0 in the reservoirs. Ordered a second ph pen because I don’t trust my readings. Will be here by Thursday. Friday: Checked the ppm in the reservoirs and it’s at 1,000. Added more RO water with extra nitrogen to bring the ppm level down to 925. Saturday: I installed an updated AC Infinity controller 69 Pro Plus (controls 8 pieces of equipment) which allowed me to add a humidifier, corner LEDs and a heater to the controller. Overall I’m extremely impressed with this AC Infinity equipment. My VPD is within the range I want to achieve (.8-1.1). I programmed it to maintain 78 degrees and 67% humidity during the day, 73 degrees and 63% humidity at night. Charts posted also show the impact of an open tent compared to the closed environment. The heater is constantly pushing fresh air into the tent, so I don’t need to cycle the exhaust fan often. Rewired the tent again and moved the controller later that night. I mounted the controller on the wall. Added Mars Hydro UV/IR lighting to fill out all 8 slots on the controller. Sunday: I checked the ph in the reservoirs (6.8….i had filled it with 6.0 ph) and the ppm (1200 ppm…I had filled it with 900). So evaporation and possibly a mismeasurement of ph. I topped ff reservoirs with slightly stronger nutes and adjusted ph to 5.8 in the reservoirs. Poor magnesium absorption could be driving some leaf yellowing. Effective tomorrow, I’m switching over to Heads Formula which consistently feeds GH Flora series nutes at Micro (6ml/g), Bloom (9ml/g) and cal mag (3ml/g). Turned on the UV/IR lights for 3 minutes every 8 hours. I’m easing the plants up to 5 minutes every 6 hours which will provide the recommended 20 minutes of IR per day. This will help the plants stretch a little more. Monday: checked ph and ppm in reservoirs. 6.1ph and 880ppm. VPD remains stable except when I open the tent. Tuesday: checked ph (6.4) and ppm (880) in reservoirs. Added .5ml of ph down to two reservoirs. Still see slight yellowing between the veins but it’s not getting worse (might be improving). Adjusting ph down to 6.0 target might have solved this. The plants grew by 1-2” last night…..is the infrared light working already? Decided to mix up fresh nutes for the reservoirs following Heads formula. 6ml Micro and 9ml Bloom per gallon of RO water. Added 5 ml of CalMag too. Ending ppm was 1080 which is too high, so I diluted down to 880 with RO water. 6.0 ph. Wednesday: plants grew another .75 inches last night. I topped above the 5th node. Thursday: added RO water with heavy cal mag to reservoirs to increase amount of CalMag available.

When I photograph her in the dark with a flash, the leaves look a lot more yellow than they really are :) The girl looks pretty good :) I'm happy :)

This is our beagle. She’s 10 yrs old now. Been with me across three continents. She likes medicating on trim sometimes. Starting a journal of her twilight years. I update my plant diary weekly. Might as well do one for her too. :) To healthy dogs and fat buds! 🐶🌱😎
