27/02/19 - Cant wait for these to be done as I’ve never had gelato before so I feel like I’m missing out 😂 but yeah other than I let them stretch abit taller than I usually prefer it’s all going well, new genetics/nutrients/medium seem to be doing the job. 02/03/19 - Just transplanted all into their final pot, just in time I think as it looked like the roots were starting to circle at the bottoms of the pot, sprinkled half a tea spoon of Mykos on each hole prior to the transplant & fed them 2.5 litres each. I was going to saturate the whole pot but I’ll do that next feeding.

💙 Project Blue Tent – Week 8 Blue Waffle F1 – Pheno A (Folder 13A) Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter inside Project Blue Tent! 💙🌱 If you're new here, welcome aboard. Project Blue Tent is our little experiment with four individual Blue Waffle F1 plants from Zamnesia, each documented separately from seed to harvest. All four ladies share the same environment, lighting, irrigation, nutrition and general care. And yet... They still manage to show their own little personalities. We're not just growing plants. We're getting to know them. And this week? Well... They're finally in flower. 🌸 ──────────────────────── 🌸 Week Eight – Welcome to Flower This week feels completely different. After seven weeks of vegetative growth, the Blue Tent has finally made the transition into flowering. And honestly... I think these girls were ready for it before I was. The entire tent has been growing at an incredible pace. In roughly one week, some of these plants have gained close to 30 cm, while simultaneously becoming denser, producing developing flowering sites and generally accelerating in every direction. They're not simply getting taller. They're building. Branches are extending. New growth is appearing everywhere. Flowering sites are developing rapidly. And the whole room suddenly feels like it has shifted into another gear. Looking back, I may have kept them in vegetation a little longer than I normally would. Seven weeks of vegetative growth is definitely on the longer side for the way I usually run these plants. But there's no point looking backwards now. The canopy is established. The plants are healthy. The screen has done its job. And now we're going to see what happens when these beautiful F1 ladies are finally allowed to flower. ──────────────────────── 🕸️ From SCROG to Flower The SCROG has been one of the most important parts of this entire vegetative phase. For weeks, we weren't trying to make the plants taller. We were trying to distribute their growth across the available space. Branches were gently guided beneath the screen, allowing the canopy to develop horizontally rather than allowing individual tops to dominate vertically. And looking at Plant A now... I'd say the mission was successful. The canopy is remarkably even. From above, it is becoming increasingly difficult to tell where one plant ends and another begins. That's exactly what we wanted. A relatively uniform surface where multiple flowering sites can develop under similar conditions rather than having a few dominant tops towering over everything underneath them. Of course, now comes the interesting part. Flowering stretch. And judging by what these plants have done during the last week... I have a feeling they're not planning on staying at this height for very long. 😅 ──────────────────────── 🌿 Plant A – The Race Has Started Plant A is looking absolutely beautiful. The colour is one of the first things that catches my attention. That rich, healthy green we've been working toward is still there, and the plant looks full of energy. But her biggest characteristic this week is simple: Speed. She is moving. Fast. The transition into flower has clearly brought a completely different level of activity to the plant. New growth is appearing quickly, branches are extending, and the developing flowering sites are becoming increasingly obvious. At approximately 81 cm, she's already gained a considerable amount of height since the last report. And that's exactly why I'm watching this flowering stretch so closely. We have a very even canopy right now. I'd love to keep it that way. But with seven weeks of vegetative development behind these plants, combined with the warm and relatively similar day and night temperatures, I fully expect some stretching. The challenge now isn't creating the canopy. We've already done that. The challenge is seeing how well we can maintain it while the plants transition into full flowering. ──────────────────────── 💡 Starting Flower Under Strong Light We're also entering flower with a fairly ambitious lighting strategy. Rather than slowly easing the plants into lower light levels, we're starting flowering at approximately 800 PPFD. The idea is straightforward: The plants have developed a large, healthy canopy during vegetation, and now I want to see how they respond as flowering begins. I'm particularly interested in seeing whether maintaining strong light from the beginning can help encourage compact development despite the factors that may push these plants toward additional stretch. Will it keep them compact? Honestly... I'm not completely convinced. 😂 Seven weeks of vegetation. Rapid growth. Warm days. Warm nights. And now the beginning of flowering. That's a lot of ingredients for stretch. But that's also what makes this project so interesting. We're not trying to predict everything perfectly. We're watching what the plants actually do. And Plant A is already telling us that she's ready to move. ──────────────────────── 🌡️ Blue Tent – Flowering Conditions The environmental conditions have shifted slightly with the transition into flower, while the overall stability of the room remains excellent. This week's recorded conditions were: • 🌡️ Day Temperature: 27°C • 🌙 Night Temperature: 27°C • 💧 Relative Humidity: 66% • 🥥 Substrate Temperature: 24°C • 💦 Nutrient Solution Temperature: 19.2°C • ⚗️ pH: 5.81 • ⚡ EC: 2.09 mS/cm • 💨 CO₂: approximately 666 ppm • 💡 Light Schedule: 12/12 • 💧 Irrigation: approximately 1.4 L/plant/24h • ? Pot Size: 8 L • 📏 Plant Height: approximately 81 cm One thing I'm particularly interested in during this phase is the temperature difference. There really isn't much of one. Day and night temperatures are currently sitting around the same level. That's something I'm watching carefully because plants can tend to stretch more when nighttime temperatures remain relatively warm. Combine that with the amount of vegetative growth these girls have already accumulated... And we may have an interesting few weeks ahead. For now, though, they're looking fantastic. ──────────────────────── 🥥 Feeding Program – A Small Step Forward With flowering officially underway, the nutrition has also moved forward slightly. The current recipe is: • Plagron Hydro A — 2 ml/L • Plagron Hydro B — 2 ml/L • Plagron Hydro Roots — 1 ml/L • Plagron Power Buds — 1 ml/L With pH adjustment as required. The resulting EC is currently approximately 2.09 mS/cm. This is a small progression from the previous vegetative recipe rather than a dramatic change. And that's intentional. The plants are hungry. They're growing incredibly quickly. They're entering flowering. But I still prefer making measured changes and then watching how the plants respond rather than changing everything at once. The plants have already given us some very clear feedback during this project. Beautiful colour. Fast growth. Strong structure. Healthy foliage. So we're continuing to listen. ──────────────────────── 💧 The Drip & Drainage System – Working Together One of the things I really want to highlight this week is the irrigation system because it has become such an important part of Project Blue Tent. The Mars Hydro drip irrigation and drainage setup isn't simply watering the plants. The two sides of the system are working together. The drippers deliver the nutrient solution directly into the coco. The solution moves through the substrate, supplying the root zone before exiting as runoff. That runoff is collected in the trays beneath the grow bags. From there, the drainage system channels the collected solution through a pipe toward the pump. The pump then moves the collected solution back toward the reservoir. So what we have is effectively a recirculating system, where irrigation and drainage work together as one continuous setup. And honestly... It's working wonders. The plants are drinking. The roots are being supplied consistently. The runoff is being removed automatically. And the entire process happens without me having to manually carry watering cans around the room every day. That's especially valuable now that the plants have entered flowering and their water demand is increasing. The system is quietly doing its job in the background. I get to spend my time watching the plants instead. And I much prefer that. ──────────────────────── 🌿 Why This Week Feels Different There is something fascinating about watching a plant move from vegetation into flower. Yesterday you're looking at leaves and branches. Then suddenly... You start seeing the plant change its priorities. The growth becomes more pronounced. The flowering sites begin developing. The branches start extending. The structure you've spent weeks building begins transforming into something completely different. And because these plants were allowed to develop for seven weeks in vegetation, there is a lot of structure available for that transformation to work with. Plant A has a fantastic starting point. The canopy is even. The branches are well distributed. The stems are strong. The foliage is healthy. Now we simply have to see what she does with it. ──────────────────────── 🌿 Plant A's Personality Plant A continues to be one of those phenotypes that makes me smile whenever I open the tent. She's vigorous. She's responsive. She's beautifully structured. And apparently... She's in a hurry. 😂 Her development throughout vegetation was impressive, but the speed at which she's now transitioning into flower is something else entirely. There's a real sense of momentum around this plant. At the moment, she remains remarkably similar to her sisters, which is another fascinating observation from this project. Despite giving each phenotype its own diary, the four plants continue showing an incredible level of uniformity. From above, they're almost becoming one giant plant. But when you look closely... The little differences start appearing. And that's exactly what this project is about. ──────────────────────── 🌸 The Big Question – How Much Will They Stretch? This is probably the question I'm most curious about now. The plants were vegetated for seven weeks. They have grown extremely quickly during the last week. Day and night temperatures are currently very similar. And flowering has just begun. All of those factors make me expect some additional vertical growth. How much? That's what we're about to discover. I'm hoping the strong lighting and the structure we've created will help keep the canopy reasonably compact. But I'm not going to pretend I know exactly what will happen. Sometimes the plant gets the final vote. And these girls have already demonstrated that they have plenty of energy. So... Let's see what they do. ──────────────────────── 👀 Looking Ahead The next couple of weeks are going to be fascinating. The major vegetative work is finished. The SCROG has been filled. The canopy has been cleaned. The plants have recovered. And now we're officially into flowering. Our main job from here is observation. Watching the stretch. Watching the developing flowers. Watching the colour. Watching the plants' response to the new nutritional program. And, of course, keeping that environment as stable as possible while the room becomes increasingly dense. Plant A has an excellent starting position. Now nature takes over. And considering how quickly she's been moving already... I have a feeling the next report is going to look very different from this one. 🌸 ──────────────────────── 💙 Thank You A huge thank you to Zamnesia for making Project Blue Tent possible and for giving us the opportunity to explore these beautiful Blue Waffle F1 genetics phenotype by phenotype. A massive thank you to Plagron for the Premium Growbags and Hydro nutrient line that have supported these plants throughout their entire vegetative journey and now into flowering. A special thank you to Zamnesia for the Phytonaut LED lighting that has helped us build this remarkably even canopy and will now be putting that flowering structure to work. And a huge thank you to Mars Hydro for the drip irrigation and automatic drainage system. Watching the irrigation and drainage work together throughout this project has been incredibly satisfying. The consistency, automation and recirculating setup have made managing four rapidly growing plants considerably easier. Thank you as well to GrowDiaries for giving growers around the world a place to document their journeys, share experiences and learn from one another. And finally... Thank you to every single person following Project Blue Tent. We've spent seven weeks building these plants. Seven weeks of training. Seven weeks of SCROG. Seven weeks of watching them develop. And now... Flower has officially arrived. 🌸💙 The canopy is ready. The plants are healthy. The lights are on. And the real transformation is just beginning. Until next week... Growers Love, happy growing, and take care everyone! 🌱💙

week four flower everything looks fine so far :D I water them with 1.5l every 48h the light I use was set to 100% and it hangs 80cm away from the tops

Seguimos en fase de Vega con alguna que otra plaga... pero de momento todo bajo control, pasaremos a foliar con delta 9 para ver los resultados. Pasaremos a flora con el nuevo equipo Led para intentar reducir el calor de los focos y ahorro energético. Iremos informando farmers buenos Humos!🍁

Vamos familia cosecha de Original de GrowBarato. La verdad que el secado muy bien 7 días en Malla y a los botes, 40% humedad y 24 grados es la temperatura ambiental que han tenido en el secado. Por lo demás de miedo os la recomiendo. Gracias Agrobeta y Mars hydro , sin ellos este proyecto no sería igual 🙏.

Seconda settimana di veg...la runtz che è nata prima dell'altra sta mutando in modo strano. Non avevo mai visto spostarsi il centro apicale..sembra che si è piegata e l'apicale sta crescendo come sé fosse un ramo laterale 😂🤣🤦💪

Mittlerweile sind alle Pflanzen voll in der Blüte. Alle zwei Tage wird gegossen. Den kleinen Ventilator habe ich durch einen großen 40cm/50W ersetzt. Der hängt verkehrt rum an der Decke und sorgt für eine Luftzirkulation. Besonders in der Nacht wenn die Luftfeuchtigkeit auf 80% geht. Der Geruch wird etwas intensiver. Ein wenig LST wende ich noch an. Die Bieger lasse ich aber höchstens 2 Tage dran. Keine Lust das mir ein dritter Seitentrieb abbricht.

The first one is still a little weird its stocky and stiff the 2nd one is lookin good. my ph meter broke and Hannah Instruments sent me a new probe. When I got it and checked run off everything was fucked up so I did a heavy flush on everything and a feed. Found some shit called Gnatrol on Ebay for the fungus gnats larvae added to the mixidk if it will work tho. Pictures were taken on Day 7 of Bloom

Doubling up on the nutrients, starting to see some progress.

Bit of stretching apparently due to not enough strength in My led light which is 200w??

Grow day 84 its end of week 12 and things are still ticking along nicely. Pineapple express had a big defol during the week and trichomes getting cloudy. She is 78 days old. Jack herer also had a big defol and is really packing on some weight. She is 78 days. Gorilla cookies had a tiny defol and her trichomes are starting turning Amber, she isn't going to have much weight but is looking sticky. She is 84 days old. Lemon pie is about a week behind the others in her production, She is 79days old. On grow day 83 I switched over to 3ml/L ripen Ec 1.2 Ph 5.6 I will run this for 7 to 10 days before flushing. All 4 will have to be harvested at the same time. Max 27. deg Avg 22. deg Min 17.9 deg Max 71% Avg 53% Min 43.6%

Howdy howdy howdy, What's good peeps!? Iv got some spare time these days so I figured I'd document my fun farm for anyone that wants to follow along 🤷‍♂️😎 Week 1 is nothing special. Took 8 trainwreck clones 6 days ago from 2 separate mums that are about to be flipped to 12/12 (4 from each). After 6 days they still look perfect so I'm hopeful all 8 will root nicely🤞🏻 Nothing special in how I took the clones. Cut, scrape, clonex dip then straight into tiny rock wool cubes. I'm a cheap cunt so I'm using 1l bottles as humidity domes, they work fantastically if you are wondering 😎👌🏻 You can see in the video the 2 mums they came from. I won't be doing a diary on them but I'll probably post pics of them here n there if people want to see how they are going 🤷‍♂️ Anyway, that's about all there is to say about it all atm. Tune in every Friday for my fun farm updates Or stop by the NO.1 cannabis channel on SENSE.CHAT 💚💚CannaChat💚💚 for some more dopey content by yours truly Double_oh 😁✌️🏻💚

This week went by quickly. They're doin their Pre-Flower stretch and getting big quickly!! I added my Pre-Flower mix to them this week. My Nutrient Pre-Flower Mix consists of H20, Coconut, Bananas, Pineapple, Sweet Potatoes, Kelp, Alfalfa Meal, All Organic Non-Pasturized Whole Milk, Epsom Salts, Black Strap Molasses, and L.A.B. or Lactic Acid Bacteria. First, I boiled the coconut, pineapple, sweet potatoes, the bananas, and left the skins on as well except the coconut of course! That I had to split in half and make sure to keep the water inside to add to the boil. After boiling everything I then let it cool and then added it to a blender to blend little by little. After blending I left separate and placed into the fridge. Then I took 1 Tbsp of Alfalfa Meal and 2 Tbsp of Kelp, 500mL of the milk, 2 Tbsp of Epsom Salts, and mixed them in a 750 mL bottle. Then I took 1L of the mix and added 2 Tbsp of L.A.B. and 2 Tbsp of Black Strap Molasses and then shook the bottle well! Then I took the 750mL bottle and the 1L bottle and fed that to the plants adding 250 mL of pH H2O to the plant as well to flush the ingredients all into the plant with the H20. I wanted to also note that I choose to slowly defoliate so that the plant doesn't go into shock and also fan leaves collect light in all spectrums so taking too many off at a time could hurt or slow the growth of your plant! The amount of light your plant takes in daily is called DLI or Daily Light Index. Overall, they're really growing and have a ton of bud sites developing! I'm excited to see the growth weekly and their colors!

Germinated 10/06 Defoliated pretty heavily a few days before the pictures. Have lights cranked up to 8 now. Turned down chiller 2 degrees and humidity down 5%. Changed feeding ratios to 1-1-1 for “Flora Trio”. Quit using Flora Micro and switched to my own blend (see photo). Now using 3 different solutions, Miller Microplex, Calcium / Potassium Nitrate, Ammonium Sulfate. Still same target ppm as FloraMicro, just can’t mix sulfates with Calcium Nitrate so I dose Ammonium Sulfate into my res first and then wait 15 minutes.

This week has been all about maturation. I’ve been watering only with plain water, starting the flush to clean the roots before harvest. The buds are looking dense and compact, covered in a nice layer of trichomes that keep getting frostier day by day. The lower leaves are yellowing, which is normal at this stage since the plant is using up the remaining nutrients stored in the foliage. Trichomes are mostly clear with some turning milky, so I think she will be ready for harvest in about a week. Overall, the plant looks healthy and stable, with tight bud formation and a great aroma coming out. Even though she stayed quite small, she’s packing some nice, solid flowers. Watering: only water (about 600 ml)Environment: stable and controlled Stage: late flowering / flushing phase Next: monitor trichomes daily and prepare for harvest

Another super terpy tasty baby strain💜 Rockdense buds

Out of the 5 plants the gelato spirited and flowered quicker than the other 4 gorilla glue plants even though it was planted a week later. From start to finish I didn’t have one problem with this strain and was shocked by the colas developing on the plants even from early flower. I’m not surprised this is one of fastbuds most powerful strains and it’s a pleasure to grow! The yield I admit isn’t the greatest bud the bud that it produced was some what close to phenotypes. Would definitely recommend this strain, not the biggest yielded but a pleasure to experience growing. Would grow again without a doubt but for now going to have a fat joint of gelato & gorilla glue. If you have any questions on these strains feel free to comment or message! Till next time HAPPY GROWING!!!
