We've harvested a plant that amazed me from the start with its powerful growth. We're talking about Tropicana Cookies #2 from Zamnesia, fantastic. Why? Because I noticed it when I transplanted it from 6.5 to 20 liters. A magnificent root ball was there, triple the size of the other plants, with wonderful color and health. Because it grew incredibly, and after transplanting, I waited just long enough for the monster to emerge, and it did. Because the flowers are large and fat and very heavy, I expect a great harvest. The purple color it took on at the end is also stunning. I've seen amazing results from this plant in both the auto and photoperiod versions, and my other plant was a beautiful pure bombshell. Give it a try. Maturity - The pistils are quite mature, especially with a red percentage between 80% and 90%. The slight Sativa dominance encourages us to harvest it early in the growing season to prevent it from over-ripening and ultimately bring out the full-bodied Indica characteristics of the evening crop. The plant was topped with 16 buds. I topped a few more that seemed to be slipping away, and we're full of succulent buds, perfect for topping, mainfolding, and scrog. We chose a 100% organic soil, 1000% Plagron, as always. The soil we chose is the recently launched Plagron Bio LightMix, which will allow us to start with more gradual and consistent watering, without the sudden changes that liquid fertilizers can cause. A week of soil is sufficient, so don't overdo it. Choose your favorite style and calculate your results on the website: www.plagron.com Visit the new Growshop area on the Zamnesia website: Z - https://www.zamnesia.io/it/531-growshop Our Tropicana Cookies is now in top form, try it! Z - https://www.zamnesia.io/en/10921-zamnesia-tropicana-cookies-semi.html Z - The award-winning Girl Scout Cookies is a cannabis strain that lends itself very well to breeding projects. That's why we've boldly experimented by combining its genetics with a fruity Tangie. The result is Tropicana Cookies, a fast and potent hybrid with 22% THC. This strain is highly productive, and its buds are not only rich in sweet and spicy terpenes but also covered in a layer of sticky trichomes (which facilitate the extraction of high-potency concentrates). Tropicana Cookies' genetics are 60% sativa and 40% indica, a blend that produces a balanced, euphoric high. Although easy to grow both indoors and outdoors, Tropicana Cookies thrives outdoors in warm climates. With enough space and good sunlight, plants can reach heights of 180 cm. If you wait until mid-October, in optimal conditions, you can harvest a whopping 700 g/plant. A result well worth the effort. This strain also impresses indoors, reaching heights of 150 cm and yielding 500 g/m². Tropicana Cookies also stands out for its rapid flowering. After just 7-8 weeks of indoor flowering, it will be ready for harvest. You know it, but I recommend it: here you can find so many wonderful things, essentially "the best that nature has to offer."

Day 1. Ohh , what a long and painful attempt it was. First seed - failed root Second seed - I was impatient and dig her out, needed like 24 hours more, never made it, had root Third seed - made it, but I started working and in the morning made a football of her ... died. Forth seed - maybe will make it, brown start, could be Growing root up, covered with extra soil ... Will wait.... Have 5th seed soaked too ;))) Later Day 1. She is out !!!! November 24 is first day. Happy Growing !!!

Nous sommes proche de la semaine 2, il reste 3 jours ! Les filles se développent plutôt bien à mon goût, uniquement de l’eau et le programme luminaire respecté. On peut remarquer 2 phénotypes, l’une un peu plus claire en terme de couleur des feuilles et l’autre plus foncée. Évidement je suppose que la qualité des Leds compte.. j’ai observé par rapport à d’autre journal que la plante ne s’étire pas comme d’autre mais elles sont en bonne santé c’est l’essentiel ! À très bientôt pour la semaine 3 !

💙 Project Blue Tent – Week 11 💙 Blue Waffle F1 – Pheno B 🌸 Same Room. Same Conditions. Another Beautiful Expression. Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter inside Project Blue Tent! 💙🌱 And once again... I'm looking at these girls and thinking: How can four plants look this similar? 😂💙 If you've been following Project Blue Tent, you'll know that we're documenting four individual plants from seed to harvest, each with her own dedicated diary. All four share the same tent. The same lighting. The same irrigation. The same reservoir. The same nutrition. The same environmental conditions. The same cultivation philosophy. And yet... each one gets her own chapter. Today it's time to give the spotlight to Blue Waffle F1 – Pheno B. And honestly? She's looking absolutely beautiful. 🌿 PHENO B – LET HER SHINE Pheno B has reached approximately 145 cm and has developed a fantastic flowering structure. At this stage, there isn't really a lot I want to change. And that's actually a good thing. The big work has already been done. The long vegetative period gave us the structure. The topping and training shaped the plant. The first SCROG organized the canopy. The aggressive flowering stretch forced us to rethink the vertical space. The major defoliation opened the plant. The second SCROG gave the flowering branches additional support. The ventilation system was moved outside the tent. The LEDs were raised. The airflow was improved. And now... we're watching all of those decisions come together. The plant is doing exactly what we wanted her to do. Grow. Flower. Develop. And increasingly... FROST. 😂💙🌸 🌸 THE FROST IS GETTING SERIOUS I have to say this because the photographs really don't need much explanation. The frost levels are beautiful. The flowers are becoming increasingly covered in trichomes, and every week the close-up photographs seem to reveal more. This is the part of the grow where you start looking at the plants differently. Earlier, we were looking at structure. Now we're looking at flowers. And those flowers are beginning to tell us their own story. The density. The development. The resin production. The structure. The way the flowers are forming along the branches. Everything is becoming much more interesting. And Pheno B is absolutely shining. 💙🌸 🌿 THE TOPPING AND STRUCTURE – LOOK AT THAT OPENING Another thing I'm really happy with this week is the structure created by the topping and training. When you look closely at Pheno B, you can really see how the plant opened up. The main structure divided beautifully. The branches spread through the available space. And the flowering sites are now positioned throughout that structure rather than all trying to occupy the exact same vertical point. This is one of those things that can be difficult to appreciate when you're doing the training weeks earlier. At the time, you're making cuts. Moving branches. Supporting growth. Trying to imagine what the plant will eventually become. Then several weeks later... you look at the flowering plant and suddenly understand why you did it. And that's exactly what I'm seeing now. The structure is there. The opening is there. The flowering sites are there. And the plant is filling that framework beautifully. 🕸️ THE X-CROSS – KEEPING THE STRUCTURE WORKING The support system is also doing exactly what we wanted. The second SCROG remains in place, helping organize and support the upper flowering structure. And with the way we've arranged the support through the canopy, we've created that X-cross structure that helps distribute and organize the flowering branches. The idea isn't to keep forcing the plant into a new shape. That stage is behind us. Now the structure simply needs to support what the plant has already built. And looking at Pheno B... I'd say it's doing a damn good job. 😂💙 The branches are supported. The flowers have room. The canopy is organized. And we can actually see through the plant. That's exactly where I want to be at this stage. 💡 UNDER-CANOPY LIGHTING – NOW PART OF THE SYSTEM The LumiFlora under-canopy lighting is also now fully integrated into the room. We're using the 150W full-spectrum LumiFlora fixtures underneath the canopy to provide supplemental light to the lower flowering structure. The main LEDs continue doing the primary work from above. The LumiFlora units are simply giving the lower portions of these very tall plants another source of light. And with plants reaching approximately 145 cm, this makes a lot of sense to me. The canopy is no longer a flat surface. It's a three-dimensional structure. There are upper flowers. Middle flowers. Lower flowers. Interior branches. And naturally, not all of those areas receive the same amount of light from above. So instead of constantly removing more foliage to chase light penetration... we're experimenting with bringing light into the lower part of the plant. And now? We watch. That's the fun part. 😂💡🌸 🌿 TWO LIGHT SOURCES. ONE VERY LARGE CANOPY. The interesting thing about this setup is that we're effectively looking at the plant from both directions. The main fixtures illuminate from above. The LumiFlora fixtures supplement from below. And the plant sits right between those two lighting environments. I'm particularly interested in seeing how the lower flowering sites continue developing as we move deeper into flowering. We're not making any promises about what the additional lighting will achieve. We're documenting it. We're watching. We're comparing. And we're letting the plants tell us what happens. That's the whole point of Project Blue Tent. 🔬 SAME ROOM – SAME CONDITIONS – DIFFERENT DIARY And this brings me to something I've been thinking about a lot during this project. People often use the word "genetics" when talking about individual plants. And obviously, genetics are involved in every plant. But I personally like using the word: "Cultivar." Why? Because we're looking at cultivated plant varieties. We're not simply talking about an abstract collection of genes. We're talking about plants that have been selected, developed and cultivated as a particular variety. And here we're working with Blue Waffle F1 cultivars. So throughout these diaries, when I talk about Pheno A, Pheno B and the other girls as individual cultivars, that's what I'm referring to. And honestly... the uniformity we're seeing makes this distinction particularly interesting. Because look at them. 😂💙 Same environment. Same reservoir. Same feeding. Same irrigation. Same lighting. Same training philosophy. And yet we're getting remarkably similar expressions. That's one of the things that makes these F1 plants so fascinating to observe. And if you already know all of this... beautiful. You know. 😂 If you didn't... hopefully you learned something today. And that's never a bad thing. I love learning. So I don't think there's ever too much useful information. 🌸 F1 UNIFORMITY – THEY REALLY DO LOOK LIKE SISTERS This is probably one of the most impressive things about this whole project. The plants are beginning to look almost like copies of one another. Different individual plants. Different diaries. But under the same conditions... the similarities are incredible. Similar height. Similar flowering structure. Similar development. Similar response to the training. Similar response to the defoliation. And now... similar frost. 😂💙🌸 Of course, we're still documenting them individually because the subtle differences are exactly what become interesting over time. Maybe those differences will become more obvious as flowering progresses. Maybe one will develop a slightly different structure. Maybe one will finish earlier. Maybe one will produce a different flower shape. Maybe the differences will become much more obvious closer to harvest. Or maybe... they'll continue looking like sisters all the way to the end. That's what we're here to discover. 🌬️ AIRFLOW – THE SYSTEM IS WORKING The airflow arrangement remains unchanged. We've got movement above and below the canopy, keeping the air circulating throughout this large flowering structure. And that's particularly important now that the canopy is so developed. The previous defoliation opened the plant. The additional airflow helps take advantage of that space. The lower portion of the plant isn't being ignored. And the under-canopy lighting is working inside that same environment. Everything has a role. Light. Air. Structure. Irrigation. Nutrition. And observation. Nothing needs to be dramatic. It simply needs to work. 💧 THEY'RE DRINKING BEAUTIFULLY Another thing I'm very happy with is how these girls are drinking. They're consuming well. The irrigation is keeping up. And the plants are showing us that they're comfortable with the current setup. The reservoir remains shared. The feeding remains shared. The irrigation remains shared. And yet Pheno B continues developing beautifully. This is exactly why having a consistent system is so valuable for this experiment. When all four plants receive the same inputs, we get a much more interesting opportunity to observe how the individual cultivars respond. ⚗️ SAME RESERVOIR – SAME NUTRITION The nutrition remains unchanged. We're continuing with: PLAGRON Hydro A — 2.2 ml/L PLAGRON Hydro B — 2.2 ml/L PLAGRON Hydro Roots — 1 ml/L PLAGRON Power Buds — 1 ml/L pH adjustment as required No need to start changing things simply because another week has arrived. The plants are happy. They're drinking. They're flowering. They're producing frost. So we continue. Consistency is part of the experiment too. And honestly... when the plants look this good, I'm not interested in fixing something that isn't broken. 😂💙 🌸 THE PREVIOUS DEFOILATION IS NOW A DISTANT MEMORY It's also interesting to look at Pheno B now and remember what she looked like immediately after the major defoliation. At the time, there was a dramatic difference. A lot of foliage had been removed. The structure became much more open. And then we had to wait. That's the difficult part. You make the decision. You do the work. And then... you leave the plant alone. Now we're seeing the result. The plant has continued growing. The flowers have developed. The structure has filled out. And the flowering sites are clearly visible. The plant didn't need us to keep interfering. She simply needed time. 🌿 SOMETIMES DOING NOTHING IS DOING SOMETHING This is probably one of the biggest lessons from this stage of Project Blue Tent. There's a temptation in cultivation to constantly do something. Adjust something. Move something. Change something. Feed something. Cut something. Measure something. 😂 But sometimes... the plants don't need another intervention. They need stability. They need time. They need the environment to remain consistent. And they need us to have enough discipline to leave them alone. That's where we are now. The structure is built. The support is installed. The lighting is established. The airflow is working. The irrigation is working. The nutrition is stable. So... let her do her thing. 🌸 CURRENT GROW CONDITIONS 🌸 Flowering: Week 11 📏 Height: approximately 145 cm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 ☀️ Day temperature: 28°C 🌙 Night temperature: 27°C 💧 Relative humidity: 63% ⚗️ pH: 6.01 ⚡ EC: approximately 2.24 mS/cm 🌡️ Solution temperature: 24.9°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: 24°C 🌬️ CO₂: approximately 666 ppm 💦 Watering: approximately 1.6 L per plant / 24h ? Pot size: 8 L NUTRIENT RECIPE PLAGRON Hydro A — 2.2 ml/L PLAGRON Hydro B — 2.2 ml/L PLAGRON Hydro Roots — 1 ml/L PLAGRON Power Buds — 1 ml/L PLAGRON pH Plus — 0.03 ml/L PLAGRON pH Minus — 0.03 ml/L 💡 UNDER-CANOPY LIGHTING 2 × LumiFlora 150W Full Spectrum 🌸 THE FLOWERS ARE TAKING OVER This is where the story becomes really exciting. For weeks, we were talking about the plant. Now we're talking about the flowers. And Pheno B is giving us plenty to talk about. The flowering sites are developing beautifully throughout the structure. The branches are carrying them well. The frost is becoming increasingly obvious. And the entire plant has that unmistakable look of a flowering plant entering a very interesting stage. The close-up photographs really show it. The trichomes are becoming more visible. The flowers are becoming more defined. And the whole plant is starting to sparkle. 💙🌸 🔭 WHAT I'M WATCHING NOW At this point, my list is actually pretty simple. I'm watching the flowers. I'm watching the frost. I'm watching the lower canopy under the LumiFlora lighting. I'm watching the structure. I'm watching how the second SCROG continues supporting the branches. I'm watching how much the plants continue to drink. And I'm watching the four cultivars develop under exactly the same conditions. That's it. No major intervention. No unnecessary changes. Just observation. Because right now... the plants are doing exactly what we want. 🌿 WHAT WILL THE FUTURE BRING? And this is the part where I honestly don't know. We have a beautiful flowering structure. We have impressive uniformity. We have increasing frost. We have healthy development. We have stable environmental conditions. And we have four incredibly interesting F1 cultivars sharing the same environment. But what happens next? That's the exciting part. Will the flowers continue stacking at this rate? Will the frost become even heavier? Will the subtle differences between the cultivars become more obvious? Will the lower flowering sites respond noticeably to the supplemental lighting? And what will Pheno B look like when she reaches maturity? I have no idea. 😂💙 And I absolutely love that. Because if we already knew the ending... what would be the fun of documenting the journey? 💙 FINAL THOUGHTS – SAME ROOM, BEAUTIFUL RESULT So... Week 11. Same tent. Same room. Same reservoir. Same irrigation. Same nutrition. Same lighting from above. Same environmental conditions. And yet... another beautiful individual story. Blue Waffle F1 Pheno B is looking fantastic. She's approximately 145 cm tall. Her structure is beautifully opened from the topping and training. The flowering branches are supported by the second SCROG. The canopy is receiving airflow from above and below. The LumiFlora under-canopy lighting is now helping illuminate the lower flowering structure. She's drinking beautifully. She's flowering beautifully. And the frost... Oh my God. 😂💙🌸 The frost is becoming ridiculous. And that's exactly the kind of problem I like having. 😂 The most interesting part for me, though, is seeing how similar these F1 cultivars are behaving. Four individual plants. One controlled environment. And remarkably consistent results. That doesn't mean every plant will finish identically. It doesn't mean there aren't individual differences. That's exactly why we're documenting them separately. But right now... they're giving us a fascinating look at just how uniform these plants can be under consistent conditions. And that's something I want to keep watching. We're not going to force the story. We're not going to chase numbers. We're not going to keep changing things just so we have something to write about. We're going to let the plants write the next chapter. And Pheno B? She's writing a beautiful one. 💙🌸🌿 The structure is ready. The support is ready. The lighting is ready. The airflow is ready. The irrigation is ready. The nutrition is ready. Now... we wait. We watch. We learn. And we enjoy the show. Let's see what the future has waiting for this beautiful girl. Because if she keeps going like this... I have a feeling we're going to have some very special flowers to photograph. 😂💙🌸 🙏 A HUGE THANK YOU A huge thank you once again to Zamnesia for making Project Blue Tent possible and for giving us the opportunity to explore these beautiful Blue Waffle F1 cultivars individually. Thank you to PLAGRON for the Hydro nutrient line supporting these girls throughout this vigorous flowering cycle. A massive thank you to Mars Hydro for the irrigation and drainage system that continues keeping this entire ecosystem supplied and running beautifully. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Phytonaut LED lighting, the curved scissors and the clip fans that have become such important parts of this project. And a huge thank you to LumiFlora for the 150W full-spectrum under-canopy lighting that we're now using to explore supplemental lighting throughout this very large flowering structure. And of course... thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the platform to document every part of this journey. The good. The unexpected. The experiments. The mistakes. The lessons. And now... the frost. 😂💙🌸 Most importantly, thank you to everyone following Project Blue Tent. Four individual cultivars. One room. One environment. One reservoir. One cultivation philosophy. And four girls showing us just how beautifully consistent these F1 plants can be. But we're not at the finish line yet. There's still a lot of flower development ahead. There's still a lot of frost to watch. There's still a lot to learn. And Pheno B has plenty more story left to tell. Until next week... Same room. Same conditions. Same beautiful girl. More flowers. More frost. More observation. And hopefully... even more reasons to smile when we open that tent. 💙🌸🌿 Growers Love, happy growing, and take care everyone! 🌱💙

Well had to harvest early. bud rot was making its way through the plant had already pulled 2 heads off covered didn't want any more being affected. So it's now chopped and drying will give more of an update after she's dryed n cured... Its been a good grow right up untill the end ventilation was lacking and temps hot. I've enjoyed it tho this plants tested some of my skills on diffieciencys and training really like the strain just abit more attention to environment nearing the buds getting very dense.

Day 71 - Not much going on today but is is starting to smell a bit more. Kinda sweet with a little bit of funk is the easiest way to explain it. Noticed some of her top leaves were tacoing a bit so raised the light up a little bit to try and relax her. Day 72 - She’s still chugging along and she’s packing in nicely. Other than that, not much else happening. I raised the lights a little more cause still have a few leaves up top folding like tacos. Have the high temps no higher than 78 and around 69 at night so I don’t think heat is the cause, I think I had the lights way to close. Day 73 - Nothing much to update today. She’s gonna need some more water tomorrow. Still have some tacoing of the leaves but did about all I can do now so just hoping it doesn’t bother her the last couple weeks. Day 74 - Almost waited a day to late to give her some water and nutrients. She was just starting to drop a bit but got her fed before she really had any big issues. She took 2 full gallons of water and nutes so that should hold her over for about 2-3 days. Day 75 - All looks great since watering, no more droopy leaves but man oh man the buds are getting fat and dense as hell. There’s still plenty of clear trichs and most pistils are still thick and white so still at least two week left but can’t wait for this harvest. Day 76 - Will probably be attaching some of those plant yoyo’s soon because these buds are getting fat and heavy and don’t want anything bad happening to them. This is turning out to be one of my best grows to date. The top few leaves are really tacoing and getting brittle, not a lot but a few so I raised the lights a bit more. Probably too late for the couple that are damaged but overall she should be ok. Day 77 - No major updates today, she’ll be needing some water for sure tomorrow. Other than that, I’ll be attaching some plant yo-yo’s today to support the massive buds.

Day 73, took another batch if clones three days after taking the 2nd batch so now I have 80 clones that will root in 11 to 14 days. The sun is hot again back to +30C° day temps, I was to lazy to take individual photos of my mother plants. I'll give the plants 10 days to recover from the stress from taking cuttings. Day 75, last day in the tent for my mother plants, tonight there going inside boxes for 3 day of darkness so that the plants forget the 18 hrs veg lighting to follow the sun. 2nd batch of clones to veg for a week before going outside to flower. Mothers in boxes they will come out on the 24th September

Without much to declare, organic runoff from the pots was at 200ppm, no nutrients were added in the last week, I increased air circulation, and harvested these plants on day 63 of flowering. I feel that if I wanted I could have left them longer, but one bud from one plant got infected with spider mites and I preferred to harvest everything to avoid infecting the others.

I wish I would of taken pics of them before I trimmed them up because they were a massive bush!!! At this point im satisfied with the number of potential cola's and size of the branches. I can already see preflowers coming from some of the nodes which is crazy because i've never seen any of plants in history doing this. Its also the first time i've taken veg past 3-4 weeks but mainlining does extend the veg time some. Today i've switched to 12/12 so next week will be the first update of flowering!!! quite excited to finally get to this stage.

Mango Kush – Week 1 Flower (Week 5 from Seed) Stretch, sibling rivalry, and fine-tuning the environment Grower: Dog Doctor Strain: Mango Kush – Pheno #1 & Pheno #2 Light Systems: • ThinkGrow Model One LED (main canopy) • ThinkGrow ICL300 (inner canopy lighting) • Black Series 600W LED (shared space) Ecosystem: TrolMaster-controlled, partially hand-watered ⸻ 🌸 First Week Flower – Stretch Mode Engaged We’ve flipped the Mango Kush girls into flower, and while there are still no visible pre-flowers yet, the stretch has begun. • Pheno #1: Already tall and well-structured, pushing into her 8th–9th node with strong lateral branching. • Pheno #2: Started later, but is rapidly catching up—shorter internodes, lush leaves, and a determination to match her sister in size before flowers set. 📸 Both got a full studio photo session this week—looking flawless and healthy from every angle. ⸻ 🌡️ Current Conditions • Room Temp: 31°C (a bit high, AC incoming) • Humidity: 50.3% • VPD: 2.23 kPa • PPFD: 766 µmol/m²/s • Soil EC: ~2.0 • Soil Temp: 25.6°C • Watering: Daily (when soil dries to ~25% moisture) ⸻ ⚠️ High Temperature Talk – Risks & Rewards Risks: • Higher temps speed up transpiration, meaning the plants take in water and nutrients faster, which can cause imbalances if not monitored. • Combined with high VPD, temps can push plants close to stress thresholds. Benefits (if managed well): • Boosted metabolism → faster stretch and branch growth before bud set. • With CO₂ at ~632 ppm, plants can tolerate slightly warmer temps without losing photosynthetic efficiency. 💡 Plan: An AC unit is on the way to lock temps into the sweet flower range of 26–28°C. ⸻ 💧 Why Daily Watering Works Here In these conditions, the Mango Kush girls are drinking daily. Letting the medium dry to about 25% before rewatering helps: 1. Prevent overwatering – Roots get oxygen between feedings. 2. Keep nutrients stable – Avoiding EC spikes/drops. 3. Match plant demand – Giving them exactly what they’re ready to drink. Nutrients remain tat Aptus Holland recipe, now for flower, just with slightly increased volume to match their thirst. ⸻ 🌱 Sibling Rivalry – Pheno #2’s Big Push Pheno #2 may have started late, but she’s been stacking nodes and leaves like she’s got something to prove. At this rate, she might hit flower at nearly the same size as her big sister. This will be a fun side-by-side to watch—same genetics, different timelines. ⸻ 💡 Inner Canopy Lighting – ThinkGrow ICL300 We’ve installed the ICL300, a bar-style LED designed to sit inside the canopy. Why it matters for Mango Kush: • Better Lower Buds – More intensity to shaded sites → denser flowers. • Even Growth – Less height difference between top and bottom buds. • Efficient Canopy Use – Every branch gets a fair shot at the light. In multi-strain grows, inner canopy lights help prevent the smaller plants from being overshadowed, literally. ⸻ 🔮 What’s Next • AC arrives → temps stabilize → optimal VPD range. • Expect pre-flower pistils to appear in the next 7–10 days. • Watch Pheno #2’s progress—will she match #1 before the stretch is over? • Continue using ICL300 to fill out the lower canopy for more even bud development. ⸻ 📣 Thank you for following the Mango Kush journey!

Still happy and doing well. Maybe a little slow since I was getting the living soil watering differences figured out. Water only living soil for now ph at 6.3-6.6
