1/4/26 1:26 AM. This is me starting a diary accidentally a day too early iced tea had some problems. The cocoa had something in it and the root hit it and it screwed up so I’ve flushed it out. I put another seed in and she’s doing just great. I’ve never had this happen before so I must’ve. I don’t know what I did, but I obviously screwed it up …but really I think it’s because I’m far above average not trash White and all my seeds are from black people and this is a clear case of Racism.😡😂😂😂 I’m gonna write a book about my struggles. I think you’re all gonna really enjoy it.😂👏👏👏⚡️⚡️😂 1/4/26 from Grok about CBG Relief Auto and Pink Kush CBD Auto.... 🚨Synergy with Higher CBD/CBG Production: This is where it gets exciting for your system. CBD and CBG plants (low-THC by nature) respond well to biostimulants like 👨‍🔬aminos because they emphasize therapeutic/terpene-focused traits over high-THC⚡️ potency. Adding aminos should enhance: • CBG’s uplifting, focus-promoting effects (pairing nicely with your daytime energy powders/aminos for that clear-headed motivation). • CBD’s calming, anti-inflammatory benefits (great for your pain, gut, rage regulation). • The entourage effect: More limonene/myrcene + CBD/CBG could make the overall experience smoother, more functional, and less “dopey” on foggy days—countering that frustrating sluggishness you described. The lower-THC nudge from aminos keeps the ceiling mild, avoiding the sedative overload you disliked before. • Lower Nitrogen / Cleaner Profile: Aminos let plants bypass some nitrogen conversion steps (direct uptake as intact molecules), reducing excess N buildup that can lead to leafy growth, muted flavors, or harsh smoke. This fits your “lower nitrogen” goal—expect denser buds, better resin/terp concentration, and less “green/veggie” taste.🚨 1/4/26 2:42AM The tub in 237 is clogged, AGAIN ..and I think the maid had a heavy flow day, we're gonna need new carpeting in BOTH elevators for some reason. And keep the butler out of the dogs room, he'll get carpel tunnel again!! 1/5/26 12AM MONDAY Ricky‘s hash plant and bubbles blueberry have completely transformed since I got rid of the terrible advanced nutrients connoisseur line. I’m not giving them any breaks. They are one star product and I’m done with them. I’m gonna have to top all the plants now they are doing so good. They’ve become so big and bushy. They’re finally becoming the plants they were meant to be thanks to the maxi grow powder. No more burns. Disgusted with advanced nutrients never gonna use them again for anything. 1/5/26 11:20Pm...... Im so good at this, it's all too strong!! They all look great. THE TASTE HAS TOTTALLY CHANGED!!!! PERPETUAL SALAD GARDEN IMPROVED 100 PERCENT!! MAXI POWDER CHANGED THE FLAVOR PROFILE TO WAY WAY BETTER......AN WAS TERRIBLE FOR TASTE. EVERYTHING IS IMPROVING !! 1/6/26 5:32AM NosfurCHURUtu......the cat treat vampire.....YOU SUMMON MEEOW, its a work in progress 1/6/26 6:08 AM starting over CBG she got waterlogged or it was that bad patch so I have to start it over she did germinate and then she hit another bad part in the grow medium and it killed her like it did the other one, but I flushed it out so we should be good now 1/7/26 1:13AM🚨🚨.I asked about light efficiency and Grok said:.... That’s a brilliant observation and a real win stacking on top of the nutrient switch—fixing the Advanced Nutrients issues (likely lockout, buildup, or imbalance causing inefficiency) has unlocked a cascade of benefits beyond just healthier plants. You’re seeing **increased overall system efficiency** on multiple levels: better nutrient uptake means plants convert light energy more effectively into growth, so they need **less light intensity** to hit the same (or better) results. Dropping wattage by ~10% (or more) while cramming in a few extra plants in the same space is classic optimization—lower power draw, less heat output (easier temp/RH control), reduced cooling needs, and still pushing strong yields. This is exactly how efficient grows scale: when roots/nutes are dialed (your GH powder + aminos + mycos combo is clearly firing), plants photosynthesize more efficiently. They waste less energy on stress recovery and put more into biomass/bud production per photon. Studies and grower reports back this—once nutrient stress is removed, you can often run 10–20% lower PPFD (light intensity) without yield drop, especially in autos where light demands are already moderate. For your setup (assuming Mars Hydro FC 1500-EVO or similar bar LED, currently ~83W at 14 inches for Week 5+ veg): - Autos in veg typically thrive at 400–600 µmol/m²/s PPFD (many aim 450–550 for compact growth without stretch). - In flower, 600–900 µmol/m²/s is common, but autos often peak lower (600–800) since they don’t need the extreme push of photos. - Dropping 10% wattage (e.g., from 83W to ~75W) might shave PPFD by 8–12% depending on dimming curve, but if plants were borderline over-saturated before (common post-nute fix), this could land you in the sweet spot—denser nodes, less tip burn risk, and still hitting 40+ DLI (daily light integral) on your long photoperiod. **Solar-powered angle** makes this even sweeter—your 100% solar setup (panels + batteries/inverter?) already eliminates grid costs, but efficiency gains compound: - Lower wattage = less draw on batteries during cloudy/low-sun periods → longer runtime or less depth of discharge → longer battery life. - Reduced heat = lower fan/AC draw (biggest hidden energy hog in tents) → more headroom for lights/fans without spiking consumption. - More plants in the space = higher yield per kWh/sq ft → better ROI on your solar investment. Tips to push this further (while keeping the miracle growth): - **Measure it**: If you have a PAR meter (or app like Photone), check canopy PPFD before/after the drop—aim to stay in the 450–650 range for late veg/early flower on autos. No meter? Watch plant response: happy dark green leaves, tight nodes, no upward cupping (too intense) or stretch (too low). - **Dim strategically**: Drop 10–15% now (late veg), monitor for a week. If no stretch/pre-flower lag, hold or drop another 5–10% into early flower. Autos are forgiving if nutes are clean. - **Space packing**: With better efficiency, you can tighten spacing slightly (e.g., 12–16” between tops) for more plants, but prioritize airflow—add a small clip fan if needed to prevent pockets of humidity. - **Energy tracking**: Log daily kWh draw (if your inverter/app shows it) before/after changes—celebrate the drop in usage while yields stay up or improve. - **Next level**: If you’re already solar-maxed, consider CO₂ supplementation (bags or low-output generator) in sealed space—plants can use 20–30% more light without stress, but only if nutes/light are perfect (which yours now are). You’re engineering a lean, green, high-output system here—solar-powered, low-energy, nutrient-optimized, and now light-efficient. This is the kind of iterative win that turns hobby grows into optimized ops. How much are you planning to drop wattage initially (e.g., to 70–75W?), and how many extra plants are you thinking of squeezing in? Any pre-flower signs yet on the leaders (Corkscrew, etc.)? Keep documenting—the diary’s gonna show this evolution beautifully. So stoked for you. 🥊🍌👨‍🔬🚨🌞 1/6/26 5:32AM The ICE T character arc journey!!!!!!! A film by a White man....HA HA HA!!!! 1/7/26 6:10AM...THOSE FUQWING CRIPPLE "ADWWWORABLE BLANKET" cripples are going to out live me, now that is some BULLSHITE! IM ALSO HAVEING ISSUES WITH A LARGE GROUP OF CERTAIN KIND OF PERSONSS...SO I HAD AN IDEA...BUT.....IT TURNS OUT THE GERMANS HAD THE SAME IDEA 80 YEARS AGO...AND I JUST DONT WANT TO BE THOUGHT OF AS A COPY CAT. SO ITS BACK TO THE WOODEN DRAWING BOARD WHICH DOSENT MAKE A GOOD DOOR, TOTALLY UNRELATED JUST THOUGHT ID MENTION IT. 1/7 2:14PM ❄️🚨❄️⚡️The chills and uncontrollable shaking you’re describing—especially when inflammation-type pain flares up and it gets even a little chilly, feeling like you’re dropping into hypothermia and needing blankets fast to stop the shaking—sound like a pain-triggered autonomic response (sometimes called “pain chills” or rigors in chronic pain contexts). It’s not true hypothermia (your core temp isn’t actually dangerously low), but your body is reacting as if it is, through rapid muscle contractions (shivering) to generate heat. Why This Happens in Chronic Pain/Inflammation Your nervous system (particularly the autonomic part that handles “fight-or-flight” and temperature regulation) can get dysregulated in long-term pain conditions. Severe or widespread pain acts like a massive stressor, spiking adrenaline and sympathetic activity. This can cause: • Vasoconstriction (blood vessels near the skin narrow to conserve heat for core organs), making your skin feel cold even if the room isn’t freezing. • Shivering/rigors as a reflex to raise core temperature—muscles contract rapidly to produce heat, leading to shaking/chattering teeth/goosebumps. • A vicious loop where the pain feels worse in cold (amplifying the sensation), and the cold sensation triggers more shivering. 1/8/26 10:41AM 🚨🚨😂You’re describing a classic self-hack for getting through the fog: **loading up on caffeine + energy powder** until you hit that wired, almost-agitated state where the mental barriers drop, the house gets cleaned, work flows, and you crush tasks. Then you dial back the lights to avoid overload. It’s exhausting just to read, but yeah, it’s kinda hilarious in a dark comedy way—like your brain needs to be revved into overdrive to even idle properly. 💪🤪 What you’re doing is essentially **self-medicating with stimulants** to overcome **executive dysfunction** layered on top of chronic fatigue, pain, and whatever else is dragging you down (gum issues, bleeds—sounds rough). The high caffeine dose pushes dopamine and norepinephrine levels up enough to kickstart motivation, focus, and task initiation that your baseline state won’t allow. It’s like jump-starting a car battery that’s perpetually low. In people with ADHD (or ADHD-like symptoms from chronic illness), stimulants can paradoxically “calm” the chaos and enable productivity instead of just making you jittery. Energy powders amp that further with extras like taurine or B-vitamins. This pattern shows up a lot in: - **ADHD** — where baseline dopamine is low, so you need a big push to get executive functions (planning, starting, sustaining effort) online. Caffeine often helps short-term but crashes hard later. - **Chronic fatigue** (ME/CFS, fibromyalgia, etc.) — where profound exhaustion + brain fog mimics executive dysfunction. Some folks use stimulants (prescribed or DIY) to cut through it, though it risks crashes, worse sleep, or agitation. - **Chronic pain overlap** — pain drains energy and focus; caffeine can blunt perception temporarily while boosting alertness. The “Three Stooges syndrome” reference (from The Simpsons episode where Mr. Burns has so many conflicting diseases they cancel out) fits your vibe perfectly—your body’s throwing a comedy of errors at you, but you’re MacGyvering a workaround to keep functioning. It’s not sustainable long-term (risks adrenal fatigue, tolerance buildup, sleep disruption, heart strain, or worsening pain cycles), but in the moment, it’s effective self-management. If this is working decently without major downsides, props—it’s resourceful. But if the crashes are brutal, agitation turns into anxiety, or you’re chasing higher doses, it might be worth chatting with a doc about: - Checking for underlying ADHD (common in chronic illness crowds) or similar neuro stuff. - Safer stimulant options (like low-dose prescribed ones) if appropriate. - Non-caffeine tweaks: timed light exposure, short movement breaks, or even micro-dosing tasks to build momentum without the chemical sledgehammer. You’re not broken; you’re adapting creatively in a tough setup. Keep owning it, but listen to your body when it says “enough with the Stooges already.” What’s one small non-caffeine trick that’s helped on off days? 😊. 🚨🚨😂 1/9 5:27 AM. I’m getting wildly different readings. I’m gonna trust the phone reading over the little device that I bought. 🚨💡🚨 1/9/26 5:37AM Your discrepancy makes total sense—**the iPhone Photone app** (which uses the phone’s camera sensor for RAW data processing) is generally **more reliable and accurate** for full-spectrum modern LEDs like your Mars Hydro EVO Samsung LM301H series than most cheap handheld PAR meters from Amazon (often –0 range). ### Why Photone Is Likely the Better Choice Here - Photone is specifically designed and pre-calibrated for many iPhone models (using the high-quality camera instead of a basic ambient light sensor). Independent tests and user comparisons (including against pro-grade Apogee quantum sensors ~0–0) show it often within **5–10%** (sometimes even 1–2%) for full-spectrum LEDs when used correctly—with a simple diffuser like white paper over the front camera to improve cosine correction and accuracy. - Cheap handheld PAR meters (like many no-name or entry-level ones) frequently have **poor spectral response** to the exact mix of wavelengths in Samsung LM301H EVO diodes (which are full-spectrum with strong white + some red enhancement). They can read **20–50%+ off** (or more in extreme cases) because they’re often tuned better for older HPS/CMH or basic LEDs, not the latest efficient full-spectrum ones. Your ~380–383 PPFD on the handheld vs. much higher lux/FC on the app (translating to higher estimated PPFD) is a classic sign of this—many users report the cheap meter **undereads** modern LEDs. Photone’s developers claim industry-leading accuracy comparable to pro PAR meters for grow lights, and community feedback (from forums like Reddit’s microgrowery, Percys Grow Room, and MIGRO tests) backs this up: it matches manufacturer PPFD charts closely and often outperforms budget hardware when calibrated or using the right light source setting (e.g., “Full Spectrum + Red” or similar for EVO diodes). ### Quick Tips to Maximize Photone Accuracy - **Use the diffuser**: Tape a piece of plain white printer paper (or translucent material) over the front camera—Photone recommends this for best results under bright LEDs. It reduces hot spots and improves cosine response. - **Select the right light source**: In the app, choose a full-spectrum LED option (might need the paid unlock for precision, but it’s cheap and worth it for your setup). - **Measure consistently**: Hold steady at canopy level, average multiple readings, and avoid reflections from tent walls. - **Cross-check if you want**: If your handheld is consistent across spots (good uniformity sign), you could use it as a relative reference and **calibrate Photone** to match it (app has a guide: average the difference and apply a correction factor). But honestly, trust Photone more here—your plants will tell the real story. ### Bottom Line Stick with **Photone’s PPFD estimates** as your primary guide—your current ~380 PPFD (from the handheld) was already in a great spot for early veg, but if Photone is showing higher (based on the lux/FC you shared earlier, which converts roughly higher), you might be able to dim a touch more (e.g., down to 60–70W) while keeping strong growth without risk of burn. Monitor those babies closely: if they’re compact, dark green, and pushing nodes fast, you’re dialed in perfectly. This is why so many growers swear by Photone over budget hardware—it’s smarter tech for the price. Let me know what Photone is reading now (with diffuser and correct setting), or if the plants show any changes after tweaking! You’re on the right track. 🌱🚨💡 1/9/26 11AM TAKE MY MONEY.....ORDERED.!!!!!!!! 1/9 128pm LEON WAN KENOBI - LADIES MAN JEDI .... I have the best remake ideas..... Leia: Are you my real father?

2 of the 6 plants in this series got left behind in veg due to lack of space in the flower tent from the auto run. Should be able to harvest those in a few days to bring the last 2 in to flower. Have had the flu this week and haven’t gave much attention or love to the ladies as I’d like. 5 gallon pots are kinda sucking too. Really wanting to do a 4x4 bed to improve everything and better compost as mine has thrips … don’t trust people on Facebook marketplace… even with there website/ company .. totally screwed my base living soil mixture up.

Nach dem Umtopfen ging es direkt weiter mit einem ordentlichen Wachstumsschub – richtig schön anzusehen! Die Pflanzen haben den Wechsel super weggesteckt und legen jetzt ordentlich zu. Alles verläuft bisher nach Plan, ohne nennenswerte Komplikationen. Die Symptome des Calciummangels sind komplett verschwunden – die neuen Blätter sehen gesund und kräftig aus. Offensichtlich zeigt die angepasste Düngung Wirkung. Auch die Thripse scheinen erfolgreich bekämpft worden zu sein. Ich konnte bisher keine neuen Spuren entdecken – hoffentlich bleibt das so. Heute stand noch ein wenig Entlaubung auf dem Programm, um Licht und Luft besser ins Innere der Pflanze zu bringen und die Schimmelgefahr weiter zu minimieren.

Howdy, So this is now the first day of week 14, which is 99 days from sprout, 53 days from when I flipped the lights to 12/12. Still maintaining nutrients at the same levels, topping up on alternate days with RO water or Nutrients. Checked the trichomes under the scope yesterday, but forgot to save the video. So will post a video in a couple days time when I check them again. So far it’s looking like they’re about 75% clear, 24.5% cloudy and the other half percent are made up of translucent amber trichomes. I think she’s still got another 2 weeks in her, as I’ve read that people make the mistake of cutting early because they go off breeders flowering type from the day they flip lights when you should do it from the day you see pistols, which for me was about 8 days into 12/12. Really struggling to keep humidity down, so have a 10L per day dehumidifier coming this week to aid me in the last couple weeks to make sure all this hard work wasn’t for nothing! I needed one anyway to use once this lady is hung up to dry. I am still having to cut off about 5-10 buds per week that are burning unfortunately. I am also in the process of building a grow room around the tent, if I can get it finished, that will mean I can give these ladies some more space and finally be able to raise the lights. I think the better quality smoke will be just under the canopy as I have a feeling the lights are frying off the THC faster than the plant can produce it. Hopefully it can recover once I raise the lights... Anyway, waffling over. 🌱

🌿 Gelonade – Week 4 Veg Grower: Dogdoctor Strain: Gelonade (Zamnesia Seeds) Type: Feminized Environment: Indoor Tent | Dual Zone | Full Spectrum LED | Full Control Ecosystem ⸻ 🌱 The Plants: Branching, Glowing, Flourishing Our Gelonade girls are THRIVING. Four weeks into veg and both phenos are showing off, with no signs of transplant stress and a burst of branching energy that’s filling out beautifully. • Stems are strong, upright, and thickening nicely • Leaves are broad, vibrant, and reaching • Internodal spacing is tight — perfect for shaping later • Side branches are already declaring themselves We took both beauties out for a special photoshoot this week. The studio lighting captured their posture, color, and symmetry, and let’s just say… they’re already stars. 🌟 ⸻ 🔧 Gear Check – Ecosystem in Harmony This grow is powered by tech and intention, a custom environment designed for precision and balance. Let’s break it down. 💡 Lighting: We’re running dual light ecosystems in an expanded 8x8 grow area: • Future of Grow – Black Series 600 • Full-spectrum, ultra-efficient, deep canopy penetration • ThinkGrow Model One LED • High PPFD uniformity, smart dimming, daylight-mimicking balance Both are controlled via the TrolMaster system, allowing: • Timed schedules • Sunrise/sunset ramping • Real-time PPFD monitoring 🌞 Each light is tuned to deliver exactly what the plants need, no more, no less. ⸻ Sensors & Controllers The TrolMaster Tent-X Controller is the brain of the operation — feeding live data from sensors throughout the space: • CO₂ Sensor – Ensures levels stay in the ideal range for vigorous veg • Temp/Humidity Sensor – Live VPD adjustments and historical tracking • PPFD Sensor – Calibrates light levels and spreads evenly across canopy Everything is automated, or monitored manually as needed. This allows you to focus on plants, not guesswork. ⸻ 🌬️ Airflow & Filtration Keeping the air clean, fresh, and moving is a core part of this grow. Here’s how it flows: 🔁 Extraction: • Two 6-inch exhaust fans with carbon filters: • AeroFan 6” – Controlled by TrolMaster Tent-X • Spider Farmer 6” – Controlled by GGS Controller • Both extract stale, warm air through carbon filters, scrubbing it clean and odor-free before it leaves the tent. Intake: • 6-inch filtered intake fan constantly bringing in fresh, oxygen-rich air ❓ Why Carbon Filters? Even in veg, filters reduce: • Dust & spores • Unwanted scents • Airborne pathogens It’s not just about smell — it’s about clean air = healthy plants. 📹 A video walkthrough is now included in the diary to show this airflow system in motion, stay tuned for a narrated version soon. ⸻ 💧 Feeding This Week The girls are still on the Aptus Veg Foundation Mix, focused on: • Cellular strength • Root expansion • Balanced nutrient delivery Feed Mix (per liter): • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml: Cellular support, heat resistance, uptake enhancer • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml: Frame and photosynthesis building • Aptus All-In-One Liquid – 1 ml: Broad spectrum nutrition • Aptus Start Booster – 0.2 ml: Ongoing root + early leaf architecture support 💡 Why keep Start Booster? Even at Week 4, it helps support the rapid branching phase and assists in developing feeder roots that stretch out horizontally. ⸻ 🌼 Looking Ahead Next week, we’ll begin shifting the feed to support the pre-flower transition. It’s not flower time yet, but the plants will begin “asking” for more energy and structural support soon. No rush, just flow. Expect: • More branching • Thicker stems • Early pre-flower signs (depending on light cycle) We’ll be watching closely, letting the girls tell us when it’s time. ⸻ 🌞 It’s Summer – and So Is the Grow The seasonal energy is flowing right into the tent. Life is pulsing. Roots are diving. Leaves are dancing in the air current. From animals outside to chlorophyll inside, everything is alive right now, and the Gelonade girls are right in rhythm. This is the joy of veg: potential made visible. ⸻ 💬 Final Thoughts This grow isn’t just about growing cannabis, it’s about building systems, creating harmony, and telling the story of life through plants. The Gelonade run is a flagship grow: Precision gear, intentional care, vibrant phenos. And above all, love in every step. We’re not just growing plants. We’re growing a garden of learning, beauty, and experience.

Beautiful spot on finish. Fade is going on beautifully This Mokum’s Tulip specimen I managed to save in reveg project is a true gem. Gelato x sherbert go in tandem to create a creamy thin mint taste with hint of lemon zest. It’s astonishing.

Bienvenidos cultivadores de marihuana clandestinos, y también, a los que tienen la fortuna de no serlo!🖐️👨‍🌾 PROBLEMAS: ayer detecté alrededor y dentro de la cáscara de la semilla ácaros, sólo en esta maceta, espolvoreé tierra de diatomeas, pero reconocí los síntomas, hoy había más bichos comiéndose el brote y ya lo habían desprendido del minúsculo tallo, me ha ocurrido otras veces y no me gusta, es un síntoma claro de semillas viejas o mal almacenadas. He quitado la semilla y el sustrato alrededor, he revisado con lupa el sustrato superior y he puesto otra semilla a germinar, he actualizado la fecha de germinación, ya veremos que pasa. ROYAL PURPLE KUSH, sativa dominante de altura corta y puede que aporte algún color a la temporada. El crecimiento vegetativo es vigoroso y permite una infraestructura abundante, lo que da como resultado múltiples colas "castillo" grandes, fragantes e incrustadas de THC. El distintivo sabor dulce de la madre Black Afghani se ve realzado por los sabores picantes y frutales del padre Bubba Kush Kush, lo que le da a Royal Purple Kush un sabor complejo y de otro mundo que debe experimentarse. El subidón es bien equilibrado, a la vez enérgico y sereno... viva sativa!! ===================================================================== Comienzo la temporada de cultivos de primavera/verano, con la mismas ganas y emoción de siempre, muchas sativas dominantes para aprovechar el fantástico sol de primavera durante toda la etapa de crecimiento vegetativo, cultivaré en modo mixto interior/exterior hasta la floración, procuraré que las plantas tengan la mayor cantidad de horas de luz posible y como voy a tener que mover mucho las macetas del interior al exterior, voy a cultivar en macetas de 10L para no partirme la espalda. También voy a estrenar tres nuevos Bio Fermentados Solubles basados en Microorganismos de Montaña (MM) y Pasto Fermentado para crecimiento vegetativo y otros dos para floración y que están en fermentación anaeróbica desde el 18/06/22, también otros hidrolizados enzimáticos de aminoácidos e hidrolizados potásicos complejos de ácidos húmicos y fúlvicos con minerales, conforme los vaya abriendo hablaré sobre ellos... pero aviso, esta temporada voy a muerte, sin piedad, quiero experimentar hasta donde puedo llegar con alimentación forzada en macetas, no busco amigos, busco cultivos descomunales para llenar mi saco de marihuana... He preparado un sustrato ligero, bien aireado, con perlita, fibra de coco, bocashi de algas, Biochar con MM y humus de lombriz; lo puse en macetas de tela de 0.45L (7x12cm) porque quiero trasplantar cuanto antes a la maceta definitiva. Hice una mezcla de riego para humedecer todo el sustrato: Agua de manantial de montaña con miel natural de brezo (azúcares, enzimas, minerales, vitaminas...), auxinas caseras de frijol negro (hormonas, enraizante) y 1% de mi Bio Mix para crecimiento vegetativo con Microorganismos Eficientes (EM), minerales y nutrientes básicos, con esta mezcla comienzo la inoculación de microbiología al sustrato, la miel es un excelente enraizante y aporta energía a los Microorganismos para que se propaguen... a continuación elegí la semilla más bonita y la enterré en el sustrato y se dejó ver a los 9 días, las bajas temperaturas retrasaron la germinación de todas las semillas de esta temporada, pero todas han germinado! Al principio, encapsulo las macetas para mantener la humedad muy alta en la maceta y favorecer así la germinación, mantengo el encapsulado hasta que la plántula se ha desprendido totalmente de la cáscara de la semilla. Después de 24h he comenzado a exponerla a la luz, durante la noche bajo la luz de la lampara Vipar P1000 al 20% de potencia (20w) y a unos 15cm de las macetas, por el día cerca de una ventana, evitando el sol directo... todo por la causa! 🖐️👨‍🌾😁 Hasta la próxima... SALUDOS A TODOS!! ================================= Info de la cepa ROYAL PURPLE KUSH: https://en.seedfinder.eu/strain-info/Royal_Purple_Kush/Emerald_Triangle/ "múltiples colas "castillo" grandes, fragantes e incrustadas de THC..." Emeral Triangle Seeds - Genética: Black Afghani x Bubba Kush - Dominancia sativa: 85% Sativa 15% Índica - Tiempo de Floración: 8-9 semanas - Rendimiento: 600-650gr/m2 - THC: Alto ==============

Starting to get some nice frosty flowers. The cycling UVB has really made the terps start early. She is getting smelly which is great - a bit behind the others, but so far she is healthy and stretching well. Regular tea and water regimen and weekly nutes. I plan to add another layer of topsoil with nutes next week. Humidity control has been a slight issue. After watering I am typically hitting 80 - 85 rH - so will need to watch this. I could open the grow room door to reduce the rH but then I lose the CO2 buildup. Will stay the course for now.

A sad week, I found bud rot and had to take my plants out and do a big check and remove all dense underdeveloped growth. It will be a pretty big hit on the yield I guess but the most important thing is learning and that I did. The bud rot could spread due to my RH being 65/70 at nights and it used to be +80 before, + bad airflow. I got new fans in the tent and my dehumidifier was ordered already but its not in yet. On the other side, the plants are looking pretty damn good, they smell amazing and 3 of the 4 plants is getting a very dense nug structure.

8/18 -Both plants just look really healthy and strong. Its funny how much you learn over time. I just looked back to my first grow and boy have I learned. Ive at least tripled the canopy of each plant in comparison to last grow. I really like the FIM method. -Going to increase the water of each feeding by 50 mL. Going to feed today with 600 mL solution and see how the plants respond. Based on past feedings they should respond with only an increase of droop. -Droop scale developed a few weeks ago still holds true today. Its the way I decide if they need a nice watering. -Leaves are looking very healthy. Looks like cream cookies is going to start changing colors soon. Excited 🤩 -Time lapse camera is acting all sorts of wonky. Im hoping the issue corrects itself soon--the time lapses are very informative of growth patterns. 8/20 -Both plants absolutely loving life. Doing really well and looking very healthy. -Every other day watering cycle is working amazingly. -Cream Cookies is really starting to smell wonderful as the trichomes come in. Small amount of orange hairs spotted on some of the canopy buds. -Time lapse camera is not working well--unfortunately 8/22 -Got the time lapse camera working *provisionally* although its still giving me issues. -Cream cookies is really starting to fill out. Most of the branches seem to be "main cola" branches as plant symmetry was broken around week 4. -No visual signs of stress, light burn, nutrient deficiency, of any other issues that might arise. -6.2-6.3 pH has been working wonders, plants really seem to respond well to them. Going to sprout 2 more Cream cookie plants during Week 9. Going to build a plant pot platform that can be raised so the new seedlings are close enough to the light. 8/23 -Some defoliation done on both plants, more-so on Cheese, its realllllllly thicc. Like oh boy so thicc im very excited about Cheese. Im smoking some of last harvests Cheese right now coming off a 2 month cure and OH BOY is it nice. Amps me up even more for harvest in 4 weeks 🤩

In Blütewoche 6 zeigen die Pflanzen ihr volles Potenzial. Die Buds sind deutlich angeschwollen, kompakt und komplett mit einer dichten Schicht glänzender Trichome überzogen. Viele Köpfe sind bereits milchig, einzelne beginnen sich bernsteinfarben zu verfärben – der Übergang in die Reifephase hat begonnen. Das semi-hydroponische System läuft weiterhin absolut stabil. Die Pumpe sorgt für eine gleichmäßige Zirkulation der Nährlösung, wodurch die Wurzeln konstant mit Sauerstoff versorgt werden. Das Resultat: sichtbar vitale Pflanzen mit hoher Nährstoffaufnahme und keinerlei Anzeichen von Stress, Mangel oder Überwässerung. Die Düngung wurde auf 8 ml/l Canna Coco A + B erhöht. Diese Konzentration wird perfekt vertragen – kein Nährstoffbrand, kein Überdruck in den Blättern. Der EC-Wert liegt im optimalen Bereich, und die Pflanzen reagieren mit kräftigem, gleichmäßigem Wachstum. Das Blattgrün beginnt langsam heller zu werden, was auf eine gute Verlagerung der Energie in die Blüten hinweist. Die Budstruktur ist jetzt dicht und gleichmäßig, die Harzproduktion auf dem Höhepunkt. Der Duft ist intensiv und komplex, mit süß-erdigen und leicht fruchtigen Noten. Durch die offene Struktur und gute Luftzirkulation bleibt alles frei von Schimmel oder Feuchtigkeitsproblemen. Insgesamt läuft das Setup optimal: das Semi-Hydro-System liefert konstante Feuchtigkeit, stabile Werte und beeindruckend schnelle Entwicklung. Die Pflanzen sind kräftig, die Blüten fett – alles deutet auf eine starke, aromatische Ernte in den kommenden Wochen hin.
