Had a bit of a bad week with the girls in flower tent also had few issues with the ph @6.3 been to high causing a few problems had to defoliate all affected leaves hopefully they will bounce back

4/13 10AM MONDAY They are looking pretty good. Got the ph stabilized and only running 98W! Using a few DROPS in 18oz to test Purpinator on veggies. 4/14 11am Using a little Purpinator .5ml per gallon and will have to do lots of runoff to prevent burns. Using vegetables to test fro Purpinator burns👍 4/15🚨🚨🚨 Your setup photos are great — thanks for sharing them. The R2-D2 power strip topper is a fun touch (he’s guarding the outlet like a proper astromech droid). Here’s a clear breakdown of what I see and my honest opinion on the power draw/safety. What you’re running • Two Mars Hydro TS1000 lights — These are officially rated at 150W each (real-world draw is usually ~145–150W at full power, sometimes a bit less if dimmed). You mentioned ~100W each, but they’re actually higher — so total for the two lights is roughly 300W. • Plus the two black fan speed controllers (one for each tent’s exhaust/inline fan). • A few small wall warts/adapters plugged into the white smart plugs or directly. • You measured 335W total across tents 1 and 2 on one outlet — that lines up reasonably (lights ~300W + fans/controllers ~20–40W depending on speed + minor losses). Is this safe on one standard outlet/circuit? In most US homes a standard wall outlet is on a 15-amp 120V circuit: • Max theoretical capacity = 15A × 120V = 1,800W. • Safe continuous load rule (National Electrical Code for things running 3+ hours, like grow lights): Stay under 80% = 1,440W max. Your 335W total is very low — only about 23% of the safe limit. That’s comfortably safe. No real risk of overheating the outlet, tripping the breaker, or fire hazard from overload right now. My opinion on the setup: • Good: Everything is neatly plugged in. The white smart plugs (with the green lights and blue indicator) and the labeled ones (9e, 10e, 11e) look like you’re using them for timers or monitoring — smart move for controlling lights/fans independently. R2-D2 adds personality and keeps the wall organized. • Fine for now: Two TS1000s + fans on one outlet/circuit is no problem at these low watts. Many small grows run similar loads without issue. • Long-term suggestions (to keep it safe and reliable as your grows expand): ◦ Don’t daisy-chain too much — You already have multiple adapters and controllers stacked. Avoid adding a lot more (e.g., dehumidifier, heater, or more lights) on the same outlet/circuit. ◦ Check heat — Feel the wall outlet and the power strips after the lights have been running for a few hours. They should be only slightly warm, not hot. If anything feels warm/hot, spread the load. ◦ Dedicated circuit is ideal — For peace of mind, run the lights on their own circuit if possible (or at least separate the fans/controllers if you add more equipment later). ◦ Surge protection — Make sure the main power strip or outlet has good surge protection, especially with grow equipment that can have inrush current when turning on. ◦ Monitor actual draw — Your 335W reading is helpful. If you have a kill-a-watt meter or smart plug that shows real-time watts, keep an eye on it when everything is at full power. The houndstooth shirt hanging on tent 2 is a nice personal touch — makes the grow room feel lived-in and less sterile. Quick safety checklist for your whole setup • All cords are in good shape (no fraying, especially the black ones going to the fans). • Nothing is blocking airflow around the plugs/adapters. • The inline fans and ducting look properly attached (important for heat and smell control). • If you ever add more lights or equipment, recalculate the total watts and stay under ~1,200–1,400W on that circuit. Overall, your power setup looks thoughtful and creative (love the R2-D2 detail). It’s not overloaded at 335W, so you’re good to keep running tents 1 and 2 like this while you sterilize and prep tent 3. 4/16 543am 5ft tent sideways attached to 6ft table that can slide around 4/17 3:45am. Here’s the exact vibe you’re going for, and yeah, it’s dark, inappropriate, and could be hilariously unhinged if executed right: Video Concept: “Revenge of the Skid Row Sith” • Split-screen the entire time. • Left side: Clean, epic original Revenge of the Sith footage — Anakin vs. Obi-Wan on Mustafar. Dramatic dialogue, lightsabers humming, lava flows, John Williams score swelling (“Battle of the Heroes” or the full Mustafar duel track). • Right side: Real, raw bodycam or dashcam footage of two absolutely fried-out junkies (or one junkie vs. cops/security) going full delusional meltdown on the street — flailing, screaming nonsense, swinging wildly at nothing or at officers, thinking they’re in an epic lightsaber duel. Twitching, eyes rolled back, yelling shit like “YOU UNDERESTIMATE MY POWER!” while barely able to stand. One of them probably shirtless, covered in sores, pants falling down, yelling about the “high ground” while tripping over a curb. The comedy comes from the perfect sync: • When Anakin says “I hate you!” → Junkie on the right screams “I HATE YOU COPS!!” or just incoherent rage. • When Obi-Wan says “It’s over Anakin, I have the high ground” → The junkie is literally on the curb or a slight incline, yelling at the cop below him “YOU HAVE THE HIGH GROUND?!” • Dramatic slow-mo lightsaber clash → Slow-mo of the junkie wildly swinging a broken bottle or just air, missing by a mile while the cop easily sidesteps. • Anakin getting chopped up and burned → Junkie getting tased or tackled into the dirt, still convulsing and screaming about betrayal. Overlay the full Star Wars audio (dialogue + epic music) on top of the real footage on the right, so the junkies’ actual grunts and screams are mostly drowned out or faintly audible underneath, making it look like they’re perfectly delivering the lines in their drug-fueled psychosis. End it with the classic “You were the chosen one!” speech while the junkie is face-down in his own puke, getting cuffed, still muttering about the dark side. Tone-wise: Super dark humor. It walks the line of “this is fucked up” but the absurdity of the overlay makes it land as comedy instead of just tragedy porn. Think It’s Always Sunny energy meets Cops bloopers with Star Wars fan editing. I can’t actually generate or edit real video clips here (especially not real bodycam footage of people in crisis — that’s a legal/ethical minefield even for parody). But if you want, I could: • Write a full detailed script/timeline with exact timestamps from the Mustafar scene synced to generic “junkie fight” beats. • Suggest public-domain or fair-use-friendly ways to source similar footage without doxxing real people. • Help you describe it precisely enough to feed into a video AI tool like Runway, Kling, Luma, or whatever’s good for video right now (with heavy disclaimers on the dark content). Want me to flesh out the full beat-by-beat script for the Mustafar duel re-cut this way? Or pivot it to fully AI-generated characters (two cartoonish, exaggerated skid-row types in a filthy alley “Mustafar” with lava made of spilled fentanyl and burning trash) to avoid any real-people issues? It’s a nasty, wrong, stupid idea… and that’s exactly why it could be comedy gold in the right hands. Your call how far you want to take it."" 4/18 3:21AM 👨‍🔬🚨"Yeah, pH drift upward overnight (or over several hours) in a freshly mixed hydroponic nutrient batch is super common—especially when you let it sit with constant agitation like a magnetic stirrer. It's not usually a sign that something's broken, but it can make adjustment feel like a battle the next day. Why this happens with your setup CO₂ off-gassing + aeration/agitation: Fresh water (especially tap or even some RO) often holds dissolved CO₂, which forms carbonic acid and keeps pH lower initially. When you mix nutrients and run a magnetic stirrer all night, you're constantly agitating and exposing the solution to air. That drives CO₂ out, reducing the acid, so pH naturally rises (sometimes 0.5–1.5+ points). Magnetic stirrers create good mixing but also promote gas exchange, speeding this up compared to a still jug. Buffering from water and nutrients: Many water sources have alkalinity (bicarbonates, etc.) that acts like a buffer. Nutrients themselves have their own buffering capacity. When you add pH Down right after mixing, the buffers can "fight back" over time, slowly pushing pH higher as the solution stabilizes. General Hydroponics recommends mixing nutrients first, waiting 15–20 minutes (or longer), then adjusting—because immediate readings can be misleading. Temperature and time: pH readings shift with temp, and overnight changes let everything equilibrate. If your stirrer keeps things moving and slightly warmer, that can influence the drift too. Your General Hydroponics pH Down (usually phosphoric acid-based) should still work, but if the solution has strong buffering or you've already hit a stabilized higher pH, it can feel "hard to lower" because you're fighting those buffers. Adding it slowly while stirring, waiting 10–30 minutes between additions, and re-testing helps. Don't chase it too aggressively right after mixing—let the batch settle. Does this happen in the "reservoir" (rez) too? Absolutely—often even more noticeably. In an active rez (with airstones, pumps, or circulation), constant aeration drives the same CO₂ off-gassing, causing pH to creep upward over hours/days. Plant roots taking up nutrients (especially nitrates) can push it higher too. Many growers see this exact pattern: mix and adjust at night, wake up to higher pH. It's why a lot of people premix the night before, let it stabilize with gentle mixing/aeration, then do a final pH check and tweak in the morning before using. Quick tips to make it less frustrating Mixing routine tweak: Use your magnetic stirrer to fully dissolve nutrients, but maybe run it for a few hours instead of all night if the drift is too much. Or mix, stir briefly, let sit still for 30–60+ minutes, test/adjust, then optional light stirring. Water source: If you're on tap/well water with high alkalinity, that amplifies upward drift. RO water often needs more pH adjustment initially but can be more stable once set (though pure RO can sometimes drift differently). Adjustment technique: Add pH Down in small increments while stirring, wait for the meter to stabilize (it can take time), and re-test after 15–30 min. Track how much you use per gallon so you can anticipate next time. Test meter: Make sure it's calibrated and the probe is clean—old or dirty meters give wonky readings that make drift seem worse. If it's stubborn: Some folks add a tiny bit of pH stabilizer or just accept minor daily tweaks. Citric acid-based downs can drift more than phosphoric ones, but GH's is usually pretty reliable. This is one of those classic hydro "annoyances" that almost everyone runs into—your nighttime low-frequency tuning sessions with the subwoofer probably give you plenty of time to notice these little chemistry experiments too.""

Reaching for the lights. Looking strong.

What can I say? I love this little plant! 2 regrets—- didn’t veg it longer (contest is over soon) and did not pop all the seeds (you guys know about light space shortage). This thing grows easy, greasy, and happy. Just love the ease of this baby. Probably will take it down to the wire for the contest entry, but she is a beauty. Only thing I did this week was a little added a little more soil for a top dress— normal water and lotus nutes and added some Roots Lush soil just to cover some exposed roots. ✌️🏻💚🌱🌿

Another good week..aromas is more intense..tricomes are cloudy..started flushing the ladies a few days ago. Definitely should be harvesting sometime next week..also my 4×4 grow tent came in the other day..got the ladies in it with the HLG scorpion over them..not full power..dimmed to 50%..ill wait til my next run to see what that baby can really do. Ill keep ya updated in my next upload 😎

🌿 Journal de Culture : Cherry Cola (Auto) ​Date : 06/04/2026 Âge : 74 jours Phase : Séchage (Plante #1) / Maturation finale (Plante #2) ​? Plante #1 (La Grande) : Le moment de vérité ​Chronologie : Mise dans le noir total le 4 avril pour stresser la plante et booster la résine, puis coupée et mise en séchage le 5 avril. ​Résultats à l'humide : 150 grammes (nettoyée). J'estime finir à environ 40 grammes sec. ​Mon avis honnête : Je ne vais pas mentir, je suis encore déçu par la Cherry Cola niveau production. C'est la deuxième fois que je la tente et le constat est le même : elle fait énormément de sites de têtes, mais elles ne prennent pas de masse, elles ne "gonflent" pas. ​Qualité vs Quantité : Le ratio temps passé / rendement n'est pas au rendez-vous. Par contre, la résine est là en abondance. C'est du givre pur, elle va sûrement mettre une sacrée claque. ​Arôme : Super agréable. Ce n'est pas une odeur agressive, c'est juste ce qu'il faut de sucré avec des notes de baies. C'est vraiment réussi sur ce point. ​Note provisoire : 7/10. J'attends le test de goût la semaine prochaine pour trancher définitivement. ​📏 Plante #2 (La Petite) : La relève ​Taille : 35 cm. ​Paramètres : Inchangés (24,5°C jour / 21°C nuit, 50% humidité, LED à 100%). ​Arrosage : 0,75 L d'eau aujourd'hui, juste pour rafraîchir la terre en surface et maintenir une légère humidité. ​Observations : Elle est magnifique visuellement. Les têtes ont l'air un peu plus gonflées que sur la première, et niveau résine, c'est encore un cran au-dessus de la n°1 (ce qui paraissait pourtant difficile !). Je reste réaliste : même si elle est superbe, elle ne fera pas de miracles sur le poids final. ​🔍 Analyse de l'Éleveur ​Structure des têtes : Sur les gros plans, on voit bien que les fleurs sont composées de calices très "aérés". C'est ce qui explique le manque de poids : il n'y a pas ce cœur dense qu'on trouve sur d'autres variétés. C'est une structure très "Sativa" dans l'âme malgré le côté compact de la plante. ​L'abondance de trichomes : Les photos montrent une plante qui semble avoir été saupoudrée de sucre glace. C'est exceptionnel pour des extractions, mais frustrant pour ceux qui cherchent de grosses "collas" bien lourdes. ​La sénescence finale : On voit bien sur les photos de la n°1 avant la coupe que les feuilles étaient arrivées au bout de leur vie (jaunissement propre). Le rinçage a été parfaitement exécuté. ​La n°2 et sa résine : Le fait qu'elle soit encore plus résineuse que la n°1 est bon signe pour la puissance. Elle profite bien de ses jours sous la Pure LED à 100%. 08/04 apport de 1 litres d'eau avec 0,4 ml pk 5-8 biotabs PH 6,3

Since the transplant to their 1 gal airpots they took off. Further nothing to report 💪 Stay tuned growmies 🌱

She getting real big since I first started her

Umgetopft in 3,2L Sonnenerde Hanf mit ca. 5cm Blähton als Drainage. Ich habe diese Woche sowohl getaucht als auch von unten gegossen und werde es so beibehalten, dabei gieße ich immer kurz von oben an. Die Purple Lemonade, die etwa 1 Woche hinterher ist, habe ich trotzdem auch jetzt schon umgetopft. Die Beleuchtung wird auf ~23 DLI hochgefahren.

Day 169. Visited my friends garden and his Royal Cookies + RQS RC looks amazing, stil packing , despite cold air in UK. My forest Hermie project goes to the end, hopefully next Wednesday and Thursday I will chop them down. Happy Growing !

Weeks 1-5 in flower, starting 8/3

Last week of veg. And we are looking good. They have grown well above the net and have strong stems ready to take on a stretch and the growing of flower. My canopy is pretty even across the plants. I'm curious to see how this back one turns out because it has a genetic mutation (whorled phyllotaxy). Where each node has three branches that stem from it. These ladies next feeding will be with the bloom A-B and PK starting the third week of flower.

right side black domina left side acid dough i think the dough gonna give a much better result good grow still i guess

07.07: Nach dem Stress die letzten Tage (Umtopfen, Toppen), darf sie sich in den nächsten Tagen ein wenig regenerieren und neue Blattmasse ausbilden. Der Plan für die Zukunft: *4-Way-Main-Lining* Im laufe der Zeit nehme ich die Triebe unteren Nodie ab und habe somit 2 Nodien (2./3.) mit der ich weiter trainieren werde.

The growth on the girls continues to stagger me! We have had a less drastic week this week then last everything gone smoothly! Took the LST off on day 16 to allow the girls to continue growing upwards, already bushy enough and only so much space in my tent, but as you can see from the vid the stems and canopy looking great! So many potential bud sites! Been doing lots of leaf tucking, fortunatly nodes nice and close together so it makes my life simple can optimise the light penetration very easily! The feed has been increased to 1.5ml/l of vega and 0.9ml/l of calmag, doing feed feed water. Girls drinking alot now and giving each around 1.5-2L per sitting every couple of days! Stem diameter just below first node - 16mm Getting around 1.5-2 inch of growth a day currently. The girl that had the transplant is loving life and really filled out her pot showing little signs of being stunted, few slightly crinkly leaves but at the time it was like -3 outside and wasn't ideal situation to be doing transplant in, but no obvious signs of being stunted! The first signs of flowering on day 21 but its very early should be more obvious tomorrow! The good times are about to begin :) These girls are so big now its kind of lucky we broke one and dropped to 4 plants not sure there is room for a 5th in there! Let me know what you think of the progress and drop your estimated yields below see who gets the closest as we go through the grow! Don't forget to follow me on insta guys if you want daily updates! @rudigrows

This plant is taking well to the training and im in love! Lets see how rapidly she grows within the next week or so!!! Lets go papaya

These are the gorilla strain as I never took any of the sour diesel, height levelled itself out to a nice height (learnt from past mistakes not to veg for too long) few smaller bud sites and leaves removed from the bottom

Flush Day! Well they look good and got amber trichomes on all plants around 20% which im happy with. did a 4L flush per plant! I did another haircut which took off the rest of the fan leaves, and man my finger were soooo sticky.. ridiculous resin production. woop woop I am curious how much i'm going to yield off these.. I feel i am still learning, and this grow was better but not perfect. I wish the cola to be a bit more dense n closer internodes. oh well. Another grow will be on the way so stay tuned? I will flush once more then hopefully have harvested and drying within 2 ish weeks.. anyways stay safe yall n keep it sleeeezy
