Day 43: Prior to yesterday i had a cal/mag def in my plants that i couldnt fix right away to to my city non essential bus. being closed, finally received what i needed yesterday and began to give the girls cal/mag. The garden has continued to grow despite the def but hopefully it will get better in a week or so because some of the leafs look really bad with spots and being crispy in general. If you have any advice please feel free to share and as always thanks for looking and happy growing. 😀

Well, here we are. 12 weeks of training, topping and pruning, she is filling the net and and in good shape for flowering. I will be making the switch to 12/12 today, so this was the last week of veg for this girl. Since going into the larger tent, she has had much better light, and she has responded with lots of new growth. She has been screaming for more nutes. Currently feeding Megacrop at 6g a gallon. I use R.O. water, and total EC of the Megacrop along with Cal Mag is 2.0, which is quite high (I think it is anyway, I've only grown autos before), but the solution in the Autopot trays is still reading 0.3 EC lower than the res, and there is not a trace of burn on her. I really have no idea how far I can push a plant of this size, so I'll let someone else tell me if this is too high. I estimate that by the time I've added Bud Explosion into the mix, the max EC at peak is going to be somewhere around 2.2-2.3, at which point I will be starting to lower N levels and will be dropping from there on. I'd love to hear input from anyone who has some experience with plants that have had longer veg times as to whether these levels are considered 'OK'. She certainly seems happy enough and is thriving for now, and I've been letting her guide the nute levels from the color of the leaves rather than sticking to a feeding calculator. I'm estimating a flowering period of 10-12 weeks, which goes well into UK summertime, which means it going to be super hot in the daytime, so I'll be doing the lights off period during the day, and lights on overnight when it's cooler and I can max out the Kingbrite without overheating the tent. Also, having only grown autos before, I've never had to worry about light intrusion as I just keep them 24/0. I never appreciated how much of the shit in the tent has little bloody lights on it. Had to go round taping up LED's on a few things to make it completely dark. I've also put the monitoring cam on the same timer as the lights, as it has an infrared sensor, so the power to the cam is cut at lights out. I've kept a fairly detailed feeding summary on a spreadsheet. As this grow seems to be going fairly well (so far) I may go back and update previous weeks with a bit more detail in case anyone is interested. tl;dr Flipping to 12/12 this week, growth good, girl hungry, Bud Explosion gonna be added to the mix this week, starting around 0.5g a gallon. Happy days :)

This grow with the TSW2000, FC4800 and 8x8 Grow Tent has come to an end🤘🤘. I'm so happy with the results mars hydro has done👍. Best lights you can get in my opinion and TONS of other people agree with me on this too👍. I always say mars hydro gets em frosty and their lights DID get em nice and frosty and the buds are so tasty and smell awesome🤘. I trimmed up 6 plants so far. Got 9 more to go. And it seems like I get a 1liter Mason jar per plant and is about 2 ounces per plant. Some are a bit more than 2. Not a huge haul per plant but I'm still very happy with it because the quality is amazing. I will never want to use anything but MARS HYDRO. Extremely satisfied with the entire grow with mars. The weed quality is very good and controlling the heat was simple because they don't get that hot. The lights were very easy to setup and so was the tent. I STONGLY recommend any products from Mars Hydro.

📅 Week 11 | 🗓️ Day 71–77 — 3rd week of flowering Biscotti Gelato 🍪🍨 – elegant, fragrant, stacking and frosting up beautifully 🔸 The stretch has clearly settled — she’s holding a sturdy, balanced canopy with strong verticals and consistent cola height. Buds are now clearly formed clusters, each topped with thick tufts of bright white pistils. Calyxes are beginning to swell and stack neatly, and there’s a noticeable layer of early trichome sparkle spreading over the sugar leaves. 🔸 The foliage remains deep, lush green, with broad, slightly glossy leaves showing no signs of stress. The overall posture is confident and vigorous — she’s thriving in her rhythm. Those slightly purple petioles add a nice touch of personality under the lights. 🔸 Watering & care: Keeping the same steady routine — moist but not soaked, around 30% soil moisture before watering. Airflow through the canopy looks solid, and humidity is still in a safe zone for mid-flower. I'm still at half the amount specified for fertilizer. 📈 Current Conditions 🌡️ Day: 27 °C 🌡️ Night: 18 °C 💨 Humidity: 59 % 🔦 PPFD: 800–900 µmol (12/12 light cycle) 🛠️ Setup 💡 Cosmos 200 W ⛺ Tent: 120 × 120 × 180 cm 🍯 Pots: 18 L plastic pots 🌱 Medium: Bio-Bizz Light Mix 💊 Nutrients: Advanced Nutrients ≈ ½ of the schedule) 💧 Water: Tap water (0.5 EC)

Day 49. Experienced some deficiencies this past week but I've upped the nutrients and I'm gonna see if that helps. Still seeing a lot of growth. Did another defoliation. DLI is still at 45. PPFD 610. Plant is still growing and roots are bigger. I'll count this as a win for now.
