Week 20 marks a transition phase for the Pineapple Upside Down, and the plant is now one full week into her new environment. The light cycle remains unchanged at 12 hours, and nutrition stayed stable. However, the major shift this week was the move from a 5000K veg light to a 3500K full-spectrum panel. This immediately triggered a visible reaction: the leaves, previously flat and perfectly extended, curled downward, showing a clear photonic stress response. Structurally, the plant is beginning to adapt. The earlier LST work is starting to show again: the tops are lifting toward the light, suggesting that she is reorienting herself and gradually regaining balance. Externally, the structure indicates a slow recovery, even though internal metabolic adjustment to the new spectrum will take more time. All environmental parameters were intentionally kept constant: – PPFD maintained at 550 after a 72-hour acclimation at 300 PPFD, – Temperature around 23°C, – Relative humidity near 70%, – No changes in nutrient formulation. This week’s focus was stabilization rather than growth. Given the current signs — partial recovery of the tops while the leaves still show stress — the plant will not be flipped to flower until she demonstrates a clear return of vigor. The upcoming week will be key. If the foliage regains posture and the stress diminishes, the transition to flowering can be considered. Until then, the approach remains minimal: no corrections, no boosters, only patience and consistency. Week 20 closes on a cautious yet optimistic note. The plant is stressed but responsive. The next phase will determine whether she fully adapts to her new 3500K full-spectrum environment.” Peace,,,

🌿 Week 4 Veg – Beauty, Branching & Bio-Tech Symphony Grower’s Journal – BlueBerry by Zamnesia Seeds | Entry 005 Welcome to Week 4 of Veg, and let’s just say it clearly: These BlueBerry girls are growing like there’s no tomorrow. Branching like crazy, stretching into their potential, and looking like true queens under the lights. ⸻ 📸 Visuals to Match the Growth This week, we pulled them out of the tent for a special photoshoot, just to honor how gorgeous they’ve become. Their structure is perfect, the leaves are flawless, and the pace of development is exactly where we want it. These are the kinds of plants that make growers pause, smile, and say, “Yes, this is working.” ⸻ 🌱 Nutrition – A Balanced, Thoughtful Feed We’re continuing our Aptus nutrient regimen, supporting explosive vegetative growth while maintaining biological harmony in the root zone: Current Feed (per liter): • Regulator – 0.15 ml: Cell wall integrity, anti-stress armor, and enhanced nutrient uptake • CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml: Supporting structural development and leaf strength • All-in-One Liquid – 1 ml: The nutritional foundation, covering macro and micronutrients • 🌿 Start Booster – 0.25 ml: Still supporting root density, node stacking, and early branching 🌿 Why we’re using this: Because we’re in rapid growth mode, and we want to fuel expansion without pushing too hard. This combo delivers strength, balance, and root vitality, exactly what we want before any training or pre-flower stretch. ⸻ 🌞 Lighting – Now a Two-Zone Setup We’ve expanded the operation—stretching across an 8x8 space, creating two active light zones: ⚡️ Zone 1 – Black Series 600 by Future of Grow • Full-spectrum LED designed for early veg and structured growth • Gentle but powerful PPFD—keeps internodes tight and leaf color rich ⚡️ Zone 2 – THINKGROW Model One LEDs • Ultra-efficient LEDs with controllable spectrum • Ideal for pushing vigorous vegetative growth across a larger canopy • Controlled via the TrolMaster system for precise lighting schedules and dimming 💡 Both systems are delivering clean, cool light, helping shape the canopy while managing energy use smartly. ⸻ 🌬️ Airflow & Environmental Control – Total Tech Harmony We’re not just growing plants—we’re growing a controlled microclimate, with every element tuned: Airflow Setup: • Exhaust: Two 6” inline fans • 1x Spider Farmer 6” Exhaust w/ Carbon Filter – Controlled via Spider Farmer GGS Controller • 1x TrolMaster AeroFan 6” Exhaust w/ Carbon Filter – Controlled via TrolMaster Tent-X Controller • Intake: One 6” fresh-air intake pulling air into the tent 🌀 This system keeps: • CO₂ fresh (~632 ppm) • Temperatures steady (~27°C) • Humidity ideal (~57.4%) • And filters in place keep the air pure, clean, and odor-controlled, even at this early stage 🧠 Sensors & Controllers: • TrolMaster Tent-X Ecosystem – the brains of the setup • Managing lights, exhaust, intake, CO₂, temperature, and humidity • Connected to: • CO₂ sensors • Temperature & Humidity probes • PPFD sensor (light intensity measurements for accuracy) Every zone, every variable is dialed in with care. ⸻ 🌿 Why All This Matters – Creating Plant-Centered Intelligence We’re not just creating a grow tent. We’re creating a living, breathing system that adapts, protects, and encourages growth. Each element, from airflow to light to nutrition, is designed to support the natural intelligence of the plant. And the BlueBerries are responding. They’re thriving, stacking, stretching, and showing gratitude through leaf expression, branch angles, and rhythm. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Week • More branching, tighter nodes • Early signs of pre-flower development • Possibly early LST if needed • Continued sensor data collection as we dial in the automation ⸻ 🙅‍♂️ What Not to Expect • No topping yet—structure is still unfolding • No transplant (they’re in final 11L fabric pots) • No overfeeding—we’re keeping it steady and strategic ⸻ 🎥 Video Update – Inside the Setup A video has been added to this week’s update, just a quiet visual journey through the setup: 💡 No narration, just the gear, structure, and rhythm of a garden built with intention. The systems speak for themselves. ⸻ 💬 Final Thoughts – BlueBerry as a Statement This isn’t just another grow. It’s a special BlueBerry run. A classic cultivar grown with modern methods, storytelling, and reverence. We’re blending nature with tech, instinct with data, and roots with rhythm. Thank you for being here. The best is yet to grow. 🌿 With light and love, Your faithful garden companion 🌱💚 DD💚 As always, this is part of our ongoing Grow Series, an open diary of everything we do and why.

Was a difficult week, because the plant was at the very back. I got some small % of bud rot. Very small. Buds are very dense. Dripping in trichomes. Colorful, and very stinky. What a beauty.

Beautiful looking seedling, very healthy and developing at a fair pace, let's see what awaits us in this diary!! She's developing super fast each day just like her sisters in this run, let's see how she keeps developing! I only use pure water and watch them grow thanks to the amazing living soil blend that I'm working with called FLO Living soil blend, very recomended to all the organic gardeners out there!! I have Transplanted this big girl after just 17 days since she was planted, she is very well developed and so ai took the decision to transplant her and all her sisters in this run, let's see how she performs! 💚❤️💛👨‍🌾🔝

The northern lights from herbies was a best the plant was the fastest growing plant out of 10 strains. In the same amount of time as 9 other plants of different strains this plant grew huge 2 times as big and it finished up flowering after only 45 or 46 days of 12/12. It has a good smell. I only set back is it doesn’t seem to be super dense with tricombs. Don’t get me wrong the plant has plenty I would guess around the low 20% of thc. That’s not bad at all it’s just not a 30% plus thc type of plant but it’s still a great plant

Esta "primera" semana de periodo vegetativo, tenemos nuestro led LazerLite Pro 720w conectado 18h al mínimo de potencia. Sustrato Bio Terra Plus y un poco de perlita para retener humedad. Temperatura y humedad cruciales en esta fase. Regamos solo cuando sea estrictamente necesario.
