Back again, Growmies — with a certain someone who absolutely soaked the soil of his freshly transplanted plants, causing a minor nutrient lockout. 😅 Anyway, I got the airflow going, let the pots dry out properly, and now we’re back on track. Plants are responding well again. Topping is up next, followed by the final transplant into 11L pots. 🌱✂️ Stats so far: 💧 Watering: Every third day 🌡️ Temp: 24–26°C 💦 Humidity: 75% RH 📈 VPD: ~0.75 kPa 💡 Light: ~400 PPFD

Week 10! First week of flower! I was eager and may have jumped the plan I had the other day of waiting another week but after some sound advice from a few people that inspired me to flip them to flower and watch them flourish!! Day 1..fed fox farm trio with some added aloe vera, very little..won't add anymore from here on out..I added some peroxide as well!! I opened the tent this evening and they were praying up to the mary Jane gods!! Just what their daddy wants to see!! Let's get this smoke to the heavens for the loved ones!! Aye!!! Thanks again to everyone who inspires me and has helped me along the way! Oh and I ordered a trellis net so it should be set up in the coming days!! I was going to enter the solo cup challenge with the mini Starbucks cup you see but I didn't realize time was ticking and i may end up throwing her away unfortunately as I dont have a tent to put her in with a light set at the right hours or whatever!! She wouldn't survive on 12 12 or would she? Day 2 of flower - I opened the tent this morning and the girls are reaching for the sky even more! I forgot to mention I made some fresh Aloe Vera tea/juice for the last feeding I did before flipping to flower..next run I'm going to try not using aloe vera on one of my plants to see the differences..I feel the aloe vera has helped my girls alot but I'm not too sure!! I made a video on youtube about how I made it!! If you have some time and are interested in making your own... Day 3..I opened the tent and BAM!! These girls know how to make you feel good!! https://youtu.be/ud9Yi-F5HSQ ( one of my high school friends band is called Katastro, Andy Chaves..lead singer, passed away in a tragic car accident this past year and it's been really tough on everyone!! R.I.P Brobro! The link above is a song I listen to, it's helps me through on tough days and sometimes it helps me shed a much needed tear!! I'm here for anyone that is struggling..have a good day!! Day 4 of flower..Half way through the day I made the video above titled day 4 of flower..they are all looking happy but the Watermelon Zkittelz is really taking off!! If you have any advice please send it my way!! Day 5 of flower in the books. Plants look healthy, few minor adjustments next watering for one of the girls..but for the watermelon Zkittelz she's taking off like crazy!!

I'm noticing that some of the plans are growing at different rates and so the ones who are growing slower probably experience more trauma during transplant is my only guess. I've been reading more about the temperature of the water so I am focusing on that but the thermometer I got doesn't read the best so I'm going to get a new one here soon. For now I'm trying to stick between cool and lukewarm water to the touch.

January 16, 2019 Everything is moving along nicely now. The last Blackberry is just about done. This week I fed some some Espoma Organic Bloom (available at most big box stores). I’ve had it kicking around since last season and figured I should use it up before it goes bad. I’m looking into more organic nutrient options for the future. I’m not sure I’m ready to start making my own organic compost teas yet. But BioBizz seems like they will take care of what I’m looking to accomplish without needing to make my own teas (fingers crossed). I removed the house plant that brought in the bugs and everything is back to normal now, no new bug damage. I finally received and read “True Living Organics” by The Rev. Its a good book, but growing the “TLO” way is vastly different from other growing methods I’ve read. I’m going to have to read this one again before making any comments. Thanks to all of the answers on CO2. Seems like its more valuable with larger setups than I’m running.

They’re getting a bit thicker. Some Leafes are burned maybe to much fertilizer. Next pouring only water and top-Max. Getting closer to the end

In der sechsten Blütewoche haben sich die Blüten weiter verdichtet und an Größe zugenommen. Die Pflanze profitiert sichtbar von der erhöhten Lichtintensität und den zusätzlichen Netzen, die für Stabilität sorgen. Das Scrogging hat sich als äußerst effektiv erwiesen, da alle Blüten gleichmäßig Lichlt erhalten und sich prächtig entwickeln. Die Pflanze wirkt insgesamt sehr vital, und die Blütenstände zeigen eine schöne Harzbildung, was auf eine erfolgreiche Ernte hoffen lässt.

Cereal milk has some really nice small leaves I like when plants have small leaves I feel it’s easier todo a sea of green. Most plants I see now days have medium size leaves but some have huge and some have small. Plants smell is pretty strong. This plant reminds me of the best black valentine plant i grew awhile back. All of the plants have really taken off. Usually I have a couple plants that are much smaller but all of these plants are getting huge. Seeing I got a new eluefah uap1500 the other day and I have my 2 fastbuds plants under that now I have my spider farmer light free. So I popped up another 2x2 and moved 3 of the 10 plants into the 2x2 and left the 7 other in the 2x4.

If you do not often cut off the weeds around your plants, then they begin to interfere with them and do not allow light to pass

Folder 13 — Blue Waffle — Pheno A Week 2 Vegetation — A New Home Beneath the Surface Welcome back, growers! This week marks one of the biggest milestones since germination. After spending the first week establishing a healthy foundation inside the starter container, Blue Waffle Pheno A has officially moved into her permanent home—a Plagron 8L Premium Coco Grow Bag, where the next stage of her journey truly begins. Transplant day is always exciting. While the leaves tell us how a plant is feeling above the surface, it’s the roots that reveal the real story. And this week, that story was a very encouraging one. ⸻ The Environment The Zamnesia ecosystem continues providing a stable and comfortable environment for these young ladies. Current room conditions: • Temperature: 29°C • Relative Humidity: 68% Airflow remains unchanged from last week: • Extraction Fan: Level 5 • Circulation Fan: Level 4 Lighting also remains steady, with the LED running at 27% intensity, drawing approximately 86 watts from the wall. At this stage, consistency is far more valuable than chasing rapid growth. Stable environmental conditions allow the plants to focus their energy where it matters most—building roots. ⸻ Feeding Program Now that the plants have entered their coco home, the hydroponic feeding strategy officially begins. The nutrient solution remains intentionally simple: • Plagron Hydro A • Plagron Hydro B • Plagron Hydro Roots Reservoir parameters: • EC: 1.26 mS/cm • pH: 5.83 • Solution Temperature: 23.1°C Hydro Roots continues playing an important role during this stage, encouraging the rapid development of fresh roots as the plants begin colonizing their new substrate. The objective isn’t explosive top growth just yet. Everything starts beneath the surface. ⸻ Transplant Day Last week the Plagron Premium Coco Grow Bags were slowly hydrated using distilled water, allowing the coco to expand evenly while creating a perfectly moist environment before receiving the plants. Rather than forcing the transplant into a dry substrate or flooding the bags at the last moment, the coco had an entire week to stabilize. When transplant day arrived, the process couldn’t have gone smoother. Using the original nursery pot as a guide, I carefully created a perfectly sized cavity inside each coco bag. This simple step allows the entire root ball to slide into place naturally without compressing or disturbing the surrounding coco. Sometimes the smallest details make the biggest difference. A gentle transplant means less stress. Less stress means faster recovery. ⸻ A Look Beneath the Surface Before placing Blue Waffle Pheno A into her new home, I couldn’t resist taking a closer look at her root system. And I’m glad I did. While the roots haven’t completely filled the container yet, they are beautifully distributed around the entire root ball. Bright white feeder roots are visible across every side, with countless fine root hairs actively exploring the growing medium. This is exactly what I was hoping to see. There was no need for a heavily root-bound plant before transplanting. In fact, moving them at this stage allows the roots to continue expanding naturally instead of beginning to circle around the nursery pot. Healthy roots don’t need to be massive. They simply need to be active. Blue Waffle Pheno A is giving every indication that she’s ready to explode into her new environment. ⸻ Blue Waffle Pheno A Above the substrate, Pheno A continues to impress. The compact structure remains intact, with tight internodal spacing and excellent symmetry across the canopy. The leaves display a healthy green colour, while the petioles have started developing subtle purple pigmentation—a characteristic that can often appear naturally in younger plants depending on genetics and environmental conditions. Most importantly, the plant showed virtually no signs of transplant shock. Only a short time after moving into the coco bag, the leaves remained upright and turgid, while fresh new growth continued emerging from the center. That’s always one of the best signs a grower can hope for after transplanting. It means the plant is already getting comfortable in her new home. ⸻ Looking Ahead With the transplant now behind us, the next objective is allowing the roots to colonize the entire Plagron Premium Coco Grow Bag. As the root system expands, so too will the canopy. The coming weeks should bring noticeably faster vegetative growth as Blue Waffle Pheno A begins taking full advantage of the increased root volume and hydroponic feeding schedule. For now… Healthy roots. Healthy leaves. Healthy future. Exactly what every grower hopes to see. ⸻ Thank You A huge thank you to everyone following along on this journey. Special thanks to: • Zamnesia for the incredible genetics, equipment, and complete ecosystem that make this project possible. • Plagron for supplying the Premium Coco Grow Bags and the Hydro nutrient line that now powers this grow. • GrowDiaries for providing an amazing platform where growers from around the world can learn from one another. • And finally, thank you to every member of this incredible growing community. Whether you’re just starting your first grow or you’ve been cultivating for decades, your support, advice, and passion make this hobby something truly special. The roots have found their new home. Now it’s time to watch Blue Waffle Pheno A reach for the sky. Growers Love and Keep Growing. 🌱💙🍁

Title: 100% ChatGPT-Guided Grow – 12/12 Fast Flower Test (With Supervision) Hey growers! This grow is an experiment: I'm letting ChatGPT guide my entire grow cycle, from lighting to nutrients to environmental tweaks. It’s all based on AI suggestions. Of course, I’ll still be keeping a close eye on things — if I see something going wrong or the plants aren’t vibing with the plan, I’ll step in. But the idea is to test how far AI can take a grow under controlled conditions. Strains – All from @Sweet_Seeds (F1 Fast Version): Mental Rainbow F1 Fast Version Tropicanna Poison F1 Fast Version S.A.D. Sweet Afgani Delicious F1 Fast Version Gorilla Girl F1 Fast Version Setup: Coco in 20L @MarsHydroLED SmartPots Grow tent: @SecretJardin DR240W Lighting: 2x 720W LM301H EVO LEDs 12/12 from seed Germination: May 14th / Main grow starts May 20th Nutrients: Hy-Pro Coco A/B CalMag Pro, @BAC Silica Power, F1 Extreme Booster Irrigation: Week 1 hand watering, then Blumat pH starts at 5.8 CO₂ supplementation via natural gas system (Spider Farmer GGS) Goal: Complete a full grow cycle in 10 weeks or less, from seed to harvest. Updates will be posted in a personal yet informative style — a hybrid of stoner chill and data-driven grow logs. Let’s see what AI can do in the grow tent. Stay tuned! 🤖🌿 🌱 Weeks 1–3 (May 20 – June 9) – Seedling to Early Flower (Stretch Phase) Goals: Strong root development, firm stem structure, controlled stretch Light: 12/12, start at ~500 PPFD → ramp up to 800 PPFD (day 14–21) CO₂: 1500 ppm (only active when lights are on and temps 26°C) Temperature: 26–28°C day / 22–24°C night RH: Start at 70% → gradually lower to 60% Nutrients (EC ramp-up): Start EC: 1.0 → increase to 1.4 Plagron Cocos A+B + CalMag Pro (0.2 EC tap water) Always mix Silica Power first (0.1 ml/L) Actions: Week 2: Start light defoliation on lower leaves Week 3: Begin LST if desired pH: 5.8 throughout the veg phase 🌸 Weeks 4–5 (June 10 – June 23) – Flowering Phase 2 (Bud Set) Goals: Initiate flower formation, maintain healthy leaf mass, stimulate bloom EC: 1.5–1.7 (monitor Blumat watering rate carefully) RH: 55–60% Nutrients: Plagron Cocos A+B CalMag Pro Silica Power (0.1 ml/L – only until end of week 5) Start B.A.C. F1 Extreme Booster at half dose, watered manually twice a week Light: 900–1000 PPFD if plants can handle it 🌼 Weeks 6–7 (June 24 – July 7) – Flowering Phase 3 (Bud Building) Goals: Develop dense flower structure, maximize flowering potential EC: Up to 1.8 max RH: 45–50% Nutrients: @Plagron Cocos A+B + CalMag Pro @BAC. F1 Extreme Booster at full strength Actions: Final defoliation at beginning of week 6 Inspect leaves regularly for airflow and mold prevention 💧 Weeks 8–9 (July 8 – July 21) – Ripening Phase Goals: Maximize terpenes, trichome maturity, flush medium Week 8: EC: taper down to 1.4 Stop using booster Optional single flush with enzymes (manual watering) Week 9: Only plain tap water through Blumat (~0.2 EC) Temperature: 24–26°C Dim lights to ~600 PPFD for final 3–4 days ✂️ Week 10 (July 22 – July 28) – Harvest Trichome check: Aim for 10–20% amber with a loupe Optional: 48 hours darkness before harvest Temperature: Keep low (20–22°C) to preserve terpenes Deadline: Harvest no later than July 28 Powered by the new 2025 @SpiderFarmerLED GGS system.. Detailed setup (only SF parts mentioned here): SF GGS Grow Light Controller (1x) SF GGS AC10 Kit (1x) SF GGS 6 Inch Clip Fans (2x) SF GGS 6 Inch Inline Duct Fan (1x) SF GGS SensorPro Kit SF Ultrasonic Humidifier May 20 – CO₂ moved outside, lighting dilemma, and a warm future ahead Moved the CO₂ generator outside the tent today. Immediate win: steady 700 PPM from just the pilot light, no active burn needed. When turned off, it drops neatly to 400 PPM, matching the calibration point. Double-checked with the Dimlux CO₂ sensor—readings line up perfectly. Still no tracking info for the originally ordered lights, so out of impatience I grabbed two new 720W LM281B fixtures from Germany this afternoon. Should arrive Friday/Saturday. It's a Trade Assurance order, so in theory, I'm covered. Now the question: let the seedlings coast at 259 µmol for two more days, or hang the old lights to boost them to 500 µmol? Eight out of twelve are already above soil, and honestly, I’d rather not mess with the current vibe. Leaning toward leaving them be—low stress, happy sprouts. Best part: temps dropped to 27.9˚C inside the tent now that the CO₂ generator’s out. Room itself is 24˚C, so all in all pretty chill. Curious what’ll happen once those dual 720W monsters fire up… it’s gonna get toasty, no doubt. 24/05: Stocked up on new Plagron nutes—finally. Now I can lock back into the full 10-week feeding plan (Plagron Cocos + B.A.C.). Flushing the res tonight and going full reset. Mixing fresh soup right after, dialed in to match this schedule: Week 1: Plagron Cocos A/B: 2 ml/L B.A.C. Silica Power: 0.2 ml/L Plagron CalMag Pro: 0.5 ml/L B.A.C. F1 Extreme Booster: 0 ml/L EC: 0.9–1.0 pH: 5.8 PPFD: 500 DLI: 22 RH Day: 70% RH Night: 65% CO₂: 700 ppm

Week 12 and we're still not there yet! However, the ladies are growing thicker every week. #2 & #3 are growing so thick, they can barely support the weight of their own buds. Really have to be careful when handling them, the risk of snapping a branch by accident is way too high right now. The reason for that is probably due to the crowded space in the growbox, in which there isn't much airflow despite having the little fan running nonstop when the light is on. Looking at the trichomes they can all take a few more weeks, just have to be patient now! This is plant #1/3. Still thickening slower than the other ones, but she's pretty fine otherwise!
