Okay, that was it, her growth period is over. My summary is a bit of a mixed bag. Sonnenerde: I liked how the plant grew in this living soil and am curious on the result after drying and curing. But so far, I'm happy with the experiment Blumat: I give up - I fell like this is not the watering system for me, despite me really liking the idea and the concept of it. To be fair, I need to check the drippers, if the membrane and moving parts are spotless, to rule out reasons beyond my wrongdoing, but I'm not too hopeful. I just don't think I'll use it again. the water hoses/pipes(?) make the whole plant too immobile, not even turning the pot is possible. I'm sure it's great for certain situations, but just not for me. Bio Tabs PK Booster+Orgatrex: This time I used a little more Orgatrex, not sure if I changed anything else, but it really made a huge difference, even bigger than in previous grows. The aroma intensified dramatically, the buds were covered in trichomes and bulked up really nicely - and all that was noticeable after a few days.

the girls have really taken off, things are going well, just trying to deal with my humidity. I do not have a dehumidifier, and the outside % is +60%....so it hard to bring it down too much. I think I may need to purchase on in the near future. Also would like to get C02 going but realize I'll need a dehumidifier first, so I went cheap and designed a C02 generator from my wine making supplies. It's producing bubbles, as you can see in the video, but not too sure how much its contributing, especially since I have the fan on for controlling the humidity. but it was fun to build

24/05/2024 lowered the rh to 50% made the silly mistake to overwater but a few days without watering and its like it never happened started watering less but more regularly 25/05/2024 Led on full blast, Rh at 50% but inside temp raised to 27º the plants seem to enjoy the environment 03/06/2024 added kelp meal to soil. 04/06/2024 defoliated and watered 2 days straight for the first time, the plants drank 2L each in one day. 05/06/2024 topped + LST 🤞🏻

SATURDAY: Today I mixed up 5g of nutes for my bloomers and douched them. I'll let them dry completely for 2-3 days, then flush them a bit with a little boomerang and calmag. I ordered a Gorilla lite-Line High CFM kit last week and received it today...fits my tent poles perfectly. This really works to keep the tent walls from collapsing in too far, and I was able to use one pole to rig a shelf to put the fan. That freed up a good bit more floor space. Yesterday, I ordered a 4 x 4 Vivosun tent and inline fan, and a 1500w (5 x 300w COBs)..this tent will be for vegging autos to put into the flowering tent as others are harvested, as well as a place to veg photos that I encounter before they are moved outdoors. I'll probably end up ordering another of the same lights, but for now I have a few supplemental lights I can use...blues and daylights. I'll drop a few WW's or CC's as soon as that stuff arrives so they are big enough to occupy flowering tent space in a few weeks. SUNDAY: I spun everybody around and misted with spring water a couple times throughout the day and formulated my plan for ventilation of the new tent which should be here Tuesday. I plan to hook the exhaust from my 4' x 5' tent as fresh air intake in the top of my 4' x 4'. By doing so, all that good CO2 that is exhausted from the flowering tent will rain down over the veg tent inhabitants before being exhausted from the bottom of the tent. I don't think heat will be a problem in the new tent with so much less light, so I'm optimistic that it will work just fine. I may even route the exhausted veg tent air back into the bottom of the flower tent, giving the girls another shot at the CO2 enriched air....we'll see... MONDAY: Got the room ready for the new tent which will arrive tomorrow, misted, rearranged, and whispered sweet nothings to all the girls. Tried out my new macro lens...need practice.. TUESDAY: Mixed up 7.5 gallons of nutes for the bloomers...ceased open sesame and began beastie bloomz. Assembled my new 4' x 4' Vivosun tent and set up its ventilation and lights. I implemented my idea of exhausting the semi-cool/CO2-rich air from my flowering tent into the top of the veg tent. Only needed 5' of flex duct, so it's got great airflow..no need for another intake fan...yay! Tomorrow I'll get the 6" x 6" x 6" 'Y' duct and connect my 6" booster fan to it. The booster fan will still be sticking into the flower tent, drawing 70 degree a/c air into the tent via direct flex duct connection, but will now be mixed with the exhausted air from the veg tent. I'm probably gonna keep the ventilation in both tents running once I've got a fully closed-loop system. The only reason I was shutting down the ventilation was so that CO2 would build up for 4 hours, but even if it gets exhausted from the flower tent, whatever the veg tent inhabitants don't consume will find it's way back to the flower tent in under a minute...and so on, and so on.. I spent a while putting together a lighting schedule that will allow me to decrease temperatures while still keeping optimal color spectrums and maintaining good light intensity. Had to empty the tent so I could get to everything...what a pain! --------------------------------------------------- FLOWERING TENT Timer #1 --- exhaust, intake (digital timer) on - 6:15am off - 2:15am Timer #2 -- primary blurple light (manual timer) on - 6:30am off - 10:30am on - 11:30am off - 3:30pm on - 4:30pm off - 6:00pm on - 6:30pm off - 8:30pm on - 9:30pm off - 2:00am Timer #3 -- all 4 daylight cobs (manual timer + power strip) on - 6:00am off - 12:00pm on - 12:30pm off - 6:00pm on - 6:30pm off - 2:00am Timer #4 -- all 4 overhead reds, sub-canopy tubes, side strip lights (manual timer + power strip) on - 1:00am off - 6:30am on - 10:30am off - 11:30am on - 3:30pm off - 4:30pm on - 8:30pm off - 9:30pm Timer #5 -- all 4 miracle LED (flowering) in corners, corner, daylight supplemental (manual timer + power strip) on - 6:00am off - 10:30am on - 11:30am off - 3:30pm on - 4:30pm off - 8:30pm on - 9:30pm off - 2:00am ---------------------------------------------- VEGETATIVE TENT Timer #1 --- primary light and exhaust (manual timer + 3-way splitter) on - 6:00am off - 2:00am Timer #2 --- blue supplementals (manual timer + power strip) on - 2:00am off - 6:00am on - 10:00am off - 2:00pm on - 4:00pm off - 8:00pm Watching temps closely.... ------------------------------------------ WEDNESDAY: My new lighting schedule seems to be working..high was 87 today, and it dropped into the upper 70's last night...schweet! I'm pretty confident that when I get my ducting in on Friday and have the closed-loop ventilation for the two tents completed, that it will drop the temp even further and I'll not be wasting so much precious CO2...and then I can ADD MORE LIGHTS and begin with renewed heat mitigation efforts!!! I'm really wanting to pump up the deep reds and maybe far reds during their 4-hour "nighttime" ...maybe more low-wattage sub-canopy tube lights, too. I guess that the girls really loved the Beastie Bloomz...much fattening happening... It was so nice being able to move Kushpialidocious into the new veg tent...more space, better canopy penetration. THURSDAY: Spun everybody around and misted with spring water..soil still moist. Temps held pretty much...86-87 all day..i changed the overhead light timer a bit so it kicks on a half hour earlier and as a result temp climbed to 89-90 for about 15 minutes, but quickly dropped to 85 when the 4 COBs turned off... when the big blurple and 4 miracle leds in the corners ( + the extra 40w daylight supplemental in my darkest corner) turned off 15 minutes later, it quickly dropped to 79.....15 minutes later...74...15 minutes later...72!!! "By Jove, I think he's got it!" I might actually be able to harvest these fuckers with all terpenes intact.👍 On second thought.😎..I'm gonna dial back the reds a half hour again (and maybe the 4 COBs), because I'm going to try switching out the 40w Sansi bulb for my extra 100w Bridgelux/Epistar 3500k COB light. (MORE POWER!) I really don't think it gets very much, if any, hotter than the Sansi 40w. I'm really hoping to keep it below 90 at all times and as close to 70 as possible at night (red zone).. new temperature test will be tomorrow. It will also be the first run with the closed-loop ventilation system in place...all ventilation will remain on at all times in both tents, and based on my rudimentary calculations, my 2 x 6" inline fans and the 6" duct booster can move enough air to circulate through both tents about 240 times per hour. I figured that like this: The 3 fans move 1,010 cfm. The two grow spaces total 252 cu ft (4 x 5 and 4 x 4) There is just over 12 feet of ducting involved in the loop, which is about 6 additional cubic feet. Correct me if I'm wrong...I'm not an HVAC guy.. The A/C kicks on, on average, every 12 minutes, so there will be a regular supply of cool fresh air injected into the mix as well. My hopes are high! (and so am I) One other interesting thing is that the addition of the 4-5 gallons of frozen water in jugs makes the substrate temp stay in the lower 70's all day long..I'm hoping the roots at least get the signal that "Winter is coming." FRIDAY: Well, shit. My closed-loop ventilation system didn't work quite right...evidently, I should have studied up on calculus. Rather than the negative pressure in both tents that I expected, both tents swole up like they were snakebit..(positive pressure?)..and temperatures in both tents started to rise...no pinche bueno. I'm sure it's my math that's off..., for example, I didn't account for the fact that the flowering tent has a carbon filter which decreases the cfm's considerably, and the intermittent flow of central air is a variable that I am also uncertain how to factor. So....I scrapped the idea until I can achieve truly equivalent intake and exhaust in both tents. HOWEVER...I did discover a trick that I will dub a "heat siphon," which is a definite improvement, but only in the veg tent. When I disconnected the flex duct from the 6" inline fan(exhaust) in the veg tent, I had intended to stub it off for now. I noticed that there was considerable "back-flow" caused by the duct booster intake fan in the flowering tent. So, the duct booster draws air from the a/c register, AND from duct which I've placed in the veg tent immediately above the light. I moved the 6" inline fan in the veg tent to to top of the tent and connected a 3' piece of duct to it that is also placed immediately above the one side of the light, so heat from the veg light is ejected into the room and partially drawn into the flower tent where it is mixed with cool a/c air, carbon scrubbed, and sent to the veg tent raining the unused CO2 down over them at about 85 degrees, which is considerably cooler than the normal tent temp. It's still not perfect.. Because the flowering tent is absorbing some of the heat drawn of the veg tent light, I'm up 3-4 degrees on average in the flowering tent, which is not what I was hoping for at all...it's now hitting 92 degrees in the flowering tent at some points during the day, and hovering at 79-80 at night, so I'm gonna have to revise the lighting schedule again..

Hola con esta semana ya quedamos al dia con el seguimiento ya que estaba atrasado en el tiempo. Se nota una producción de resina notable en esta genética que nos ha gustado mucho por su olor y estructura de las plantas . hemos creado un video por cada una de las 14 plantas del seguimiento, hay varias muy llamativas que están "pre-seleccionadas" para mantener a futuro, el olor que se llega a sentir es muy florar y dulce, si tienen alguna pregunta no duden en preguntar saludos. Hello with this week we are already up to date with the follow-up since I was late in time. There is a remarkable resin production in this genetics that we liked a lot for its smell and structure of plants. We have created a video for each of the 14 floors of the follow-up, there are several very striking that are "pre-selected" to keep in the future, the smell you get to feel is very flowery and sweet, if you have any questions do not hesitate to Ask greetings.

This Zamnesia Super Boof was the last plant to be vegetated, and although it vegetated much less than the others, it gave us an equivalent harvest. I really appreciated the low internodal spacing, which makes it a compact plant and very easy to handle in the grow tent. I didn't even need any supports until the day I took the photos. It's very compact and has sturdy branches despite beautiful, swollen peripheral buds. The main cola is truly enviable: large, imposing, and super succulent. We're in a classic 11-liter square pot. ... Maturity: The pistils are quite mature, especially with a red content of around 90%. The indica dominance has allowed us to mature this plant just right. We're moving toward the end of the harvest window, so the color is 25-30% amber - 50% milky - 20% transparent. Techniques // The plant is left to grow freely and beautifully, but we do some pruning and tidying up the lower levels; we don't want overly woke flowers. As always, we opted for a 100% organic, 1000% Plagron soil. We chose the recently introduced Plagron Bio LightMix soil, which allows for a gentler and more uniform start, without the sudden changes that liquid fertilizers can cause. A week in the soil is sufficient, so don't overdo it. Choose your preferred method and calculate the results on the website: www.plagron.com Super Boof is a fantastic strain with honey-sweet buds; try it. Z - https://www.zamnesia.io/en/13317-zamnesia-seeds-super-boof.html Z - Super Boof: Here's your chance to grow one of the most sought-after strains of recent years: Super Boof, crowned Strain of the Year 2024 by Leafly, and for good reason.

Here we are at the end of the 8th week of flowering. I'm undecided whether to harvest on day 63 as directed or give them another week. 🤔 In the last photos, there's a shot of the trichomes, where you can already see a good amount of amber. Let me know what you think, mates.

Welcome to week 8! She’s still looking great and healthy. It seems that she’s still making some height but slowly also the buds getting bigger and bigger from day to day. At end of week 8 I probably have to adjust some branches to give them more light disposal and maybe doing some light defoliation. At the mid of week 8 I can see that the buds gaining weight. More and more orange pistils are showing up and she starts to smell just a bit. At the end of week 8 she’s still doing Great! The buds getting bigger and i decided to a last defoliation to ensure better airflow and also removing some of the smaller popcorn buds to redirect energy flow. The roots already decided to grow outside the pod 😄 they’re looking snowwhite, which is a good sign. I’m still very happy with this strain and also with the performance of the growbox. Can’t wait to see how she’s producing nice, dense and thick buds

Grow day 77 its end of week 11 and things are ticking along nicely. Pineapple express had a small defol during the week and is doing her thing. She is 71 days old. Jack herer also had a small defol and is really packing on some trichomes. She is 71 days. Gorilla cookies had a tiny defol and her trichomes are starting turning Amber. She is 77 days old. Lemon pie has started to look a bit better this week, she had the biggest defoliation as there where lots of dead leaves. She is 72 days old. During the week I realised my PH pen was 0.2 out. Also my boiler is playing up again. I'm to far through this grow to abandon it. It's just the hot water that's playing up this time. Will probably run these nutes for another 5 days then switch to ripen and flush. As soon as its done I'm going have to invest in a new boiler. Max 27.3 deg Avg 22.5 deg Min 17.5 deg Max 67.8% Avg 52.8% Min 46.4%

This little seedling sprouted quite fast in a glass of water. It’s about 10 days out from germination now. I’m adding droppers of pH balanced water to the cube morning and evening. No roots coming out of the netpot yet. I’m planning on LST training this plant and hope to get a better yield. Using the new QB288 Version 2 from Horticulture Lighting Group.

Bienvenidos la semana #3! 😁 Día #18. Crystal Candy XL Auto ha empezado a crecer de forma espectacular! Northern Lights auto ha mostrado las primeras preflores y también están empezando a crecer muy rápidamente Royal Bluematic ha pasado por el bloqueo de nutrientes por el ph alto en el agua de riego (es la única strain que la ha manifestado). Se ha regado con agua con ph ajustado para controlar el bloqueo. Orion F1 están yendo más lento que el resto...  Día #19. Crystal Candy XL Auto y Northern Lights han empezado una carrera hacia el cielo Se decide empezar con LST en todas las variedades (ver fotos)  Es primera vez con LST, así que espero hacerlo bien! Pero supongo tendré una curva de aprendizaje o ensayo y error Día #20. Crystal Candy XL Auto se muestra muy sedienta. Sus compañeras siguen con 100 ml de agua desde hace unos 4 días, y ella necesita 250 ml de agua cada 3 días (también es la más rapida). Se ha regado Crystal Candy XL Auto con 250 ml de agua más 2 ml/l de Bio-Grow de Biobizz Es necesario ajustar el LST a diario  Día #21 Se hace un riego con 100 ml a todas las plantas (excepto Crystal Candy XL que se regó día anterior). LST es exigente en su revisión diaria pero divertido! 😃 Día #22. El tiempo se está volviendo soleado y hacemos el primer baño de sol.  Crystal Candy XL Auto está respondiendo muy bien al LST, necesita ajustes a diario Royal Bluematic tbm responde bien al LST. Las Orion F1 están yendo lentas... No sé si cogerán velocidad la próxima semana He detectado que Northern Lights tiene una pequeña plaga de minadores de las hojas (solo una hoja afectada). Para atacar la plaga y por precaucion, se hace aplicación foliar a todas las plantas de jabón potásico y aceite de neem.  Día #23. Descubro que he quemado algunas hojas tras la aplicación foliar de ayer y meter demasiado rápido bajo la lampara... Salimos al exterior! 😂 La idea es dejarlas en exterior el resto del cultivo, a no ser que vuelvan las lluvias (espero que no! 🙏) Pequeños ajustes de LST  Gracias por leerme!  😄
