Moved some small clones after sitting in an aeroponic cloner for 2 weeks. We waited until they had 3 <--> 4 inch roots before transplanting them into the 6 site system. This is our first time growing with a hydroponic sysyem and first time indoors also. Running 4 weaker clones in fox farm's ocean floor blend to see the difference in growth rate between the 2 mediums.

I've added week 4 early so I can keep track of the nutrients bucket , I have decided too add full recomend dose of the humic acid and the more roots and have half dosed the organic veg feed , and the results from day one / first feed on green buzz nutrients too this photo today day 5 is dramatic , the photo of all four was before defoliation , but the defoliation has just shown how busy they have this week , Also a note on nutrients I learned a lesson this week , organic feeds do not store in a bucket of bubbles , I went too the bucket I made up 3 days ago and has been stored in a 20 ltr bucket with two large bubbler air stones in as I always have with no issues , But today the mixture had seporated I had like a skin on the top of the bucket , I mixed and mixed and mixed , ended up like a soup bits floating all other the place, So I suspect I will have too make up my bucket and only use the base nutrients and only add the additional addatives on the day of use , This is probably common sense too most growers but a first for me so lesson learned , So far the plants are liking what there drinking and I've had an amazing couple of weeks with temps peeking around 23.5c - 24.8c light cycle , so have really got this extraction side sorted with my recent fan and filter upgrade , I today turned the idle speed of my climate control too around 25c But all in all a really good week progress wise as you can see from week 4 photos of day one defoliation to today's photos day 6 of week 4 , the defoliation has really bought the BlackBerry kush alive from a droppy leaved sulking runt too now just 5 days later has become something very different , some say don't do it , some swear by it , I first time round didn't and the lower plant really suffered , for me by pulling off the big problem leaves or anything you know will grow into a problem early on , you get her that shock before the flower really starts too form giving her just enough time too recover before flower , but too be fair a good defoliation doesn't seem too faze fast buds strains , infact it seems too induce them too shoot out in all directions , Then giving me the chance too tigh down those side branches , and if I'm lucky enough even the main cola , my last blackberry that was an amazing plant , I managed too pull down the top stem under a net , and it gave me meany colas and all as silly thick as each other ,

Esos fumetillas, que actualizo esas bombas de candy caramelo 💣 del banco Zambezaseeds. Y es que ya no les queda nada, estoy pensando en cortarlas con varios días de diferencia, pero ya veremos eso aún está por decidir. La cuestión es que mirar lo sanas que han llegado hasta el final y a sido Gracias al led que me mando mars hydro. Esta semana no se echo nada de productos y hasta el corte es lo que seguiré haciendo, con cada riego se alimente la planta con nutrientes o no se tiene que calibrar el ph, mantener la humedad por debajo del 50% Y la temperatura mantenerla entre 22/26 grados. La flor no es muy grande pero está compacta, tiene bien de resina, el olor es un olor dulce como a chicle de fresa. Muy peculiar y llamativo. Hasta aquí todo lo de esta semana, disfruten los vídeos y muy buenos humos gente

A good week's growth, they are drinking more and I've started to feed, and I think they enjoyed the nutes as they clearly stretched over this last 24 hours.

Stoney_Stark Week 2 Update — Sticky Broccoli Auto Grower: Stoney Stark / Little Lilly Farms Stage: Early Veg (Week 2) ⸻ Growth Overview Plants are establishing well and responding positively to automation. No visible stress from the siphoning incident. What initially appeared to be a nitrogen deficiency was later identified as a magnesium deficiency common in coco systems, with a light green fade also indicating the early onset of nitrogen demand. ⸻ Irrigation & Automation • Transitioned to auto-irrigation emitters this week • Distribution appears even across all plants • Initial siphoning issue identified and corrected by removing pump after feed cycle • Monitoring pot weight closely to avoid overwatering ⸻ Watering & Feeding Log 1/29 — First Auto-Irrigation Run • Amount: ~¼ gallon per plant • PPM: 420 • pH: 5.9 Nutrients (per gallon): • 0.5 ml Silicium • 4 ml Cocos A • 4 ml Cocos B • 2 ml Power Roots • 3 ml Pure Zym • 5 ml Ruby Fulvic • 2 ml Photo+ • 1 ml Fish Sh!t Notes: First run with emitters. Feed appeared evenly distributed. ⸻ 1/31 — Siphoning Incident • Issue: 5-gallon bucket siphoned into all 4 plants • Result: No negative plant response observed Nutrients (per gallon): • 0.5 ml Silicium • 4 ml Cocos A • 4 ml Cocos B • 2 ml Power Roots • 3 ml Pure Zym • 5 ml Ruby Fulvic • 2 ml Photo+ • 1 ml Fish Sh!t ⸻ 2/1 — Auto-Irrigation Dialed In • Feed Time: 1 minute • Runoff: Small amount • Adjustment: Pump removed immediately after feed to prevent siphoning Observations: • Noticed early light green coloration initially interpreted as nitrogen deficiency • Adjustments made to increase available nitrogen Nutrients (per gallon): • 0.5 ml Silicium • 4 ml Cocos A • 4 ml Cocos B • 2 ml Power Roots • 3 ml Pure Zym • 5 ml Ruby Fulvic • 2 ml Photo+ • 1 ml Fish Sh!t • +2 ml additional Cocos A • +1 ml Royal Rush ⸻ 2/2 — Moisture Hold • Pots felt heavy • Decision made to skip watering for 1–2 days to avoid overwatering ⸻ 2/3 — Light Auto Feed + Deficiency Diagnosis • Feed Time: 1 minute • Pots: Still holding moisture; irrigation paused for the next couple days Updated Diagnosis: • What initially appeared to be nitrogen deficiency was confirmed to be magnesium deficiency, common in coco when running low-mineral water • The light green coloration also indicates the beginning stages of increased nitrogen demand Correction Plan: • Adding Scientetics MagCal at 2 ml per gallon starting next feed to supply readily available magnesium and calcium • Nitrogen levels maintained via Cocos A and Royal Rush without over-increasing EC Nutrients (per gallon): • 0.5 ml Silicium • 6 ml Cocos A • 6 ml Cocos B • 3 ml Power Roots • 4 ml Pure Zym • 4 ml Photo+ • 2 ml Fish Sh!t • 1 ml Royal Rush • (MagCal to be added next feed) ⸻ Issues & Adjustments • Magnesium deficiency: Identified and corrected with planned MagCal supplementation • Early nitrogen demand: Being met through controlled increases to Cocos A and Royal Rush • Overwatering risk: Managed via pot-weight monitoring and irrigation pauses • Auto-irrigation: Functioning correctly after siphon fix ——— Deficiency Learning Note This week provided a useful reminder about how nutrient deficiencies present in coco-based systems. What initially appeared to be early nitrogen deficiency was identified as magnesium deficiency, which commonly manifests as a light green fade and interveinal chlorosis on lower leaves. In coco, magnesium can become limiting even when using coco-specific base nutrients, particularly when running low-mineral or RO water. The light green coloration also coincided with increasing nitrogen demand as the plants transitioned deeper into vegetative growth. Rather than aggressively raising EC, the correction strategy focused on restoring magnesium availability while maintaining balanced nitrogen levels. ⸻ Plan for Week 3 • Introduce Scientetics MagCal at 2 ml/gal • Allow pots to dry slightly before next irrigation • Monitor color correction in new growth • Fine-tune auto-irrigation timing and volume • Gradually increase feed strength as plants size up

So we are at about day 70 of flower 🌺. Still not ready for 3 of these ladies😤. Took down the back right plant last night she was ripe and ready. Hung her up after a lite trim, and she will dry in my jimmy rigged drying tub for about 10 days will weigh her then

Very happy I went Original Sensible Seeds beens this grow. 🤩 All 3 autos from some special american line, and o boy , they don't disappoint.🔥 Bangers genetics 👏🏻 all trees are good size with super thick stalks and loads of fat buds. Another big defoliation been done this week, removed around 2 kg of leaves.All frosty with great smell. I like it a lot 💚

72 after 1 week drying and trimming As expected, the yield was not the greatest. This was a picky plant since the beginning and showed so many weird problems never heard before. Buds did not get too dense, but are super crystallized. It's the #1 in this matter so far, beating Gorilla Glue #4. The high is strong and good, makes everything funny and it's def not a couch lock. I'd say it's about 23% thc. I'll come update the post and stats after 1 month of curing and smoking. Peace

Update 20 Jan 2021 - Well starting the cure a bit earlier than I’d like cause I’m having issues getting the humidity up so she dried up quick. Working on rehydrating her a bit and have her in mason jars now. Ended of with 88 grams of rock solid buds. Still want it to rehydrate and cure a bit before trying her out. What can I say, a very simple and easy grow. Had absolutely no issues during the grow and ended up with 380 grams of SOLID wet bud. Even some of the lower buds that didn’t get much light are pretty rock solid. Going by the smell and solidness of the buds, I got a feeling this is gonna be a too 2 strain, if not number 1. Looking forward to growing this one again and as soon as I harvest another plant, I’ll probably start another one of these.

OVERALL: ~ Very happy with the grow, I really dialled everything in well this run. ~ She grew super fast, I put it down to the constant oxygenation of the rootzone along with consistent and constantly optimized light DLI and leaf to air temp variance. The extra Co2 helped push the plant to its limit in terms of heat, allowing it to push its hardest. ~ The lack of HST and Defoliation I feel let it finish faster due to lack of stress and stunting. The faster finishing time along with the big yield and efficient MarsHydro light, it hugely reduced my electricity costs per gram and freed up space much sooner for the next plant. ~ Turned into a very dense bush of buds, there is even smokable dense buds at the base of the plant due to the under canopy lighting (Not as dense as top canopy buds but still decent) ~ Ran a thin line between stressing the plant and letting it flourish. The buds came out big and very dense, also it's hard to see on camera but they're very frosty too (Prob from UVB) YIELD: ~ 145g (dry) in just 9 weeks from seed. ~ 753g (Wet) ~ 0.91g/watt GENETICS: ~ MSNL - Gorilla Glue Auto ~ my favorite strain, as you can tell by my username! STRAIN REVIEW: ~ Heavy hitter, like an indica but has some of that "feel it in your face" sensation of a strong sativa. Not as heavy or as strong as other GG#4's I have smoked, which would make me question the genetics used to produce the auto version. I will wait till after a cure and judge it again. TRAINING: ~ No defoliation or HST (Bar last week for pics) ~ A little LST and leaf tucking but largely just left the plant alone to do its thing. I felt chopping healthy parts off the plant would slow the plant down and leave it with less chlorophyll to photosynthesize the light. ~ I did prune by lightly plucking dead leaves away, when the plant was ready to let them go easily. DRYING ~ 20/21'C 50% RH with air circulation. ~ Homemade Drybox made using: 2 x Bankers Boxes ~ 2 x USB Desk Fans ~ 1 x Carbon Filter ~ 6 x Clothes Hangers UPDATE: Day 5 after Harvest: ~ Fast dried some small batches, as we couldn't wait to sample. ~ Chopped off branches as some are down to 12% moisture whilst bigger buds are up at 18%. Moving to paper bag for couple of days to even moisture out then transferring to jars CURING: ~Curing in jars 3/4 full. ~ Dark closet/18'C/50% RH ~ Jars burped once Hygro passes 65% and sealed when it drops to 58%. ~ Stabilised it at 62% and after 2 weeks I'll drop it some more and stabilise it at 58% to bring out more of the flavour. ~Sitting in jars with Boveda 62% at this stage. ~ Already tastes and feels great. WATER: ~ Condensed (Starting at 40ppm) ~ Disinfected prior to adding nutrients etc. (Using COOSPIDER UVC - 253nm & 187nm bulb) CLIMATE: ~ Ambient Air Temp = 29'C ~ 28'C LST ~ Leaf to air temp variance of between 1'C ~ Night Temp = 22/23'C ~ Day/Night temp differential 6-7'C ~ Under Canopy Temp: 26'C (Day) ~ 21'C (Night) ~ Relative Humidity = 50-60%RH (Avg. 55%RH) ~ VPD = 1.45kPa (Avg.) ~ Co2 ranges from 900ppm to 1500ppm (Avg. 1200ppm) AIR PRESSURE: ~ Ambient Air Pressure (outside tent) = Mean Avg. 1010 mbars (101 Kilopascals) ~ Actual Air Pressure (inside tent) = Mean Avg. 1005 mbars (100.5 Kilopascals) ~ Air Pressure Differential = up to 0.5 kPa range between inside & outside LIGHT: ~ UVB (High intensity @ 45cm) ~ 2 hours daily mid light cycle. ~ Warm White 3000K/White 5000k/Far Red (660nm) ~ At plant canopy = PPFD 900-1000umols/s/m2 ~ Lux 45,000-55,000 ~ Daily Light Integral 55-65 ~ Under canopy lighting ~ Blue (460nm)/ Red (630nm) NUTRIENTS: ~ Mostly Advanced Nutrients (For base nutrients and most additives, as only company I could find scientific data on) ~ Canna (For Calmag Agent and Cannazym) ~ Plant Success (Great White Mycorrhizae) ADDITIONAL GROW TECHNIQUES: INFECTION PREVENTION & CONTROL: Infection control practices i.e ~ PPE, Alcohol Hand wash ~ Gray room outside tent, ~ Carbon filter ~ HEPA filter ~ Plasma Ionizer ~ Inline UV-C germicidal bulb ~ Also using an additional higher powered COOSPIDER (UVC) 253nm & 187nm bulb, to disinfect the gray room outside of the tent once a week for 30 mins. ~ Ozone (o3) gas that is produced using the COOSPIDER, is then directed into the tent to further control any unwanted pathogens. ~ Ed Rosenthal (Zero Tolerance organic pesticide), sprayed once a week as preventative measure. On hand for heavier use (Once every 3 days before lights out for 15 days) in the case of an outbreak (No outbreaks yet, due to aforementioned preventative measures)
