Heute wurde die OG Kush endlich getoppt. Wachstum läuft weiterhin stabil und die Pflanze sieht sehr gesund aus. Langsam sind jedoch die Düngerreserven in der All Mix Erde aufgebraucht da auch ein kleiner Pot. Die Blätter hellen sich leicht auf. Die nächsten 15-20 Tage des Wachstums werde ich mit Wachstumsdünger, Powerzyme und Wurzelstimulator von Hesi nachdüngen. ansonsten sehr zufrieden mit der kleinen Pflanze.

🌱 Grow Diary Update — Sour Diesel Week 4 | First week of flower (12/12) This week, the spotlight is on Sour Diesel, because she clearly stood out from the rest of the room — and when one plant speaks louder than the others, we listen. ⸻ 📍 Quick recap (so everyone is on the same page) • Sour Diesel just entered week 6 / first week of flower • She was running on Autopots with mineral-only feed • Organics and amendments were removed from the Autopot system • The rest of the room handled this change fine • She did not She started showing: • Droopy posture • Loss of vigor • Early deficiency-type signals • A general “I’m not comfortable” look Important detail: 👉 She was the only plant reacting like this. ⸻ 🌿 Why this happened (the key lesson) Sour Diesel is an old-school genetic, and not all strains respond the same way to abrupt system changes. In her case: • She was previously thriving with organics + minerals • Removing organics reduced: • Nutrient complexity • Biological buffering • Availability of secondary elements • This happened right at the transition into flower, when demand increases sharply On top of that, we had environmental pressure: • Outside temps: ~4°C • Outside humidity: ~98% • Room stabilized at: 21°C / 58% RH Those conditions are acceptable — but combined with: • Feed change • Flower transition • Genetic sensitivity …it was enough for her to react. ⸻ 🚿 Why we took her off Autopots Autopots are great — but they’re not universal. We removed her from the Autopot regimen because: • She needed immediate, tailored feeding • She wasn’t responding well to mineral-only delivery • Hand-feeding lets us: • Adjust EC gently • Reintroduce organics • Observe response feed by feed This wasn’t a system failure — it was a plant-specific decision. ⸻ Current feeding strategy (now) • Medium: hand-fed (off Autopots) • EC: 1.43 • pH: 5.9 • Full recipe: organics + minerals • Added: CalMag Pro Why CalMag Pro? • We’re using rainwater + humidifier water, which is very soft • Low calcium & magnesium availability can show fast in flower • This is both: • A corrective move for her • A preventive move for the whole room Meanwhile, the rest of the Autopot system is running: • 2.29 EC • pH 6.0 • Mineral-only • Other plants are stable and happy ⸻ 🌬️ Environment (current) • Lights: stable • Airflow: good • Temp: ~21°C • RH: ~58% Nothing extreme — but this shows how context + timing + genetics matter more than numbers alone. ⸻ 🔮 What we expect (and what we don’t) What we expect: • Gradual recovery, not overnight • Leaf posture improving first • New growth responding before old leaves • Stability over speed What we don’t expect: • Instant “fix” • Old damage to reverse • Her to behave exactly like the rest of the room From now on, she’ll simply need a bit more attention than her sisters — and that’s okay. ⸻ 🧠 The bigger takeaway This is a perfect example of why: • There is no single “best way” • Systems are tools, not rules • Genetics always get a vote • Listening beats forcing We’re not chasing perfection — we’re responding with intention. We’ll keep monitoring her closely over the coming week and adjust calmly, step by step. As always, this is just our experience and observation — not a universal recipe. Plants teach, we adapt 🌱💚 👽 New team member Meet Mr. Baggy Our new fluffy alien/beaver/whatever-he-is friend, won through a Grow Diaries contest. Expect to see him around — he’s officially part of the grow now. Week 5 Veg/pre-flower | 8×8 Tent | Master Conditions 🌍 External Environment (Context) • Outside temperature: ~5 °C • Outside RH: 92–96% (very high humidity) • Strong seasonal pressure influencing internal stability ⸻ 🌡️ Internal Tent Conditions • Tent temperature: ~21.8 °C (noted drop due to cold external temps) • Tent RH: ~58% → Very good considering outside conditions ⸻ 💨 Airflow & Circulation • Primary airflow: Bottom → top → wall return • Pattern: Full-room vortex circulation • Additional fans: Central airflow to break blind spots and mix layers • Goal: No stagnant pockets, uniform VPD across canopy ⸻ 💧 Water Source & Rationale • Water: Dehumidifier water + rainwater • Base EC: force • Systems designed to support plant intelligence, not override it FOR DISCOUNT CODES AND MORE JUST FOLLOW THE LINK https://website.beacons.ai/dogdoctorofficial 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

She was harvested this week day 73 from seed week 11. All pistols went amber and trichomes 90% cloudy. As you can see from pics and videos, she is FROSTY. I will put the harvest under next week because i want to give dry weights. She is hanging drying out now. I flushed for 1 week using mollasses and tps signal with ph water. The last 4 weeks of her flowering was done outside in the green house. I cannot wait to try her out. Smells awsome. Good job OSSC!

Сухим весом получилось более 200 грамм шишек с каждого куста. На фото шишки с одного куста, перетертые через сито для приготовления канна шоколада. Россыпь получилась на столько жирной, что я резал ножом))). Веточки что остались после перетирания шишек- закинул в бутылку с вискарем. Они там настоятся и будет напиток веселее! Ресурс очень хороший, жаль не дружит с Украиной, а ведь пора уже расширять службу доставки посевного материала и не только. Всем удачи и отличного настроения. Получилось шикарное масло и шоколадок сделал для майских праздников на природе.

💙 Project Blue Tent – Week 5 Blue Waffle F1 – Pheno A (Folder 13A) Welcome back everyone to another week inside Project Blue Tent! If this is your first visit, welcome aboard. This project is dedicated to exploring the incredible Blue Waffle F1 genetics from Zamnesia while putting the complete Zamnesia ecosystem through its paces. Rather than growing multiple plants as one crop, every phenotype is documented individually, allowing each one to tell its own story despite sharing the exact same environment, nutrients, lighting and care. Unlike our 8×8 Adventure, where different cultivars grow together, Project Blue Tent focuses on understanding every subtle difference between identical F1 genetics. Every week we watch these plants develop, compare their structures, and discover how each expresses its own unique personality. As we like to say... We are not just growing seeds—we are discovering individual personalities. This week has been one of the most exciting since the project began. Plant A has responded beautifully to last week's topping, the feeding adjustments have brought back the deep green colour we were looking for, the SCROG net has officially been installed, and one important upgrade has made the entire irrigation system safer and more reliable. Sometimes the biggest progress isn't measured by the plants alone. Sometimes it's the grow room that evolves alongside them. ──────────────────────── 🌱 Week Five – Everything Comes Together Looking back over the past few weeks, it's incredible to see how quickly everything has started coming together. After establishing a healthy root system and recovering perfectly from topping, Plant A has exploded with vigorous vegetative growth. The canopy has become noticeably fuller, side branches have accelerated dramatically, and every growing tip seems eager to compete for its place beneath the light. One of the biggest improvements this week has been her colour. The slightly lighter green we observed over the previous weeks has completely disappeared after increasing the nutrient strength. The foliage has returned to a rich, healthy green, confirming that the plants were simply asking for a little more food. It's always satisfying when the plants respond exactly as you hoped. Sometimes they don't need rescuing. Sometimes they just need to be heard. ──────────────────────── 🌡️ The Blue Tent Environment The environment continues to be one of the strongest aspects of this project. Even with warmer summer conditions outside, the Zamnesia ecosystem has continued providing a remarkably stable environment, allowing the plants to focus entirely on growing instead of constantly adapting to fluctuations. This week's average conditions were: • 🌡️ Day Temperature: 30°C • 🌙 Night Temperature: 27°C • 💧 Relative Humidity: 58% • ⚗️ pH: 5.8 • ⚡ EC: 1.92 mS/cm • 💨 CO₂: approximately 450 ppm • 💡 Light Schedule: 18/6 • ☀️ PPFD: approximately 350 The Phytonaut LED continues producing an even spread of light across the canopy, while the Grow Environment Controller quietly keeps everything stable in the background. When the environment remains consistent, every adjustment we make becomes easier to evaluate. ──────────────────────── 🥥 Feeding Update This week's feeding program remained wonderfully simple. One of the things I'm genuinely enjoying about growing with the Plagron Hydro line is just how uncomplicated everything is. There are no complicated recipes or endless bottles to keep track of. The plants are currently receiving: • Hydro A – 1.9 ml/L • Hydro B – 1.9 ml/L • Hydro Roots – 1 ml/L Along with very small pH adjustments whenever necessary. That's it. Coming from many years of growing organically in living soil, I've been pleasantly surprised by how stable the nutrient solution remains throughout the week. Once everything is mixed and adjusted, it simply stays where it should. Even better, the increased feeding strength has delivered exactly what I was hoping for. The richer green colour has returned across all four plants, new growth is vigorous, and the entire tent looks happier because of it. Sometimes simple really is better. ──────────────────────── 💧 Learning From Experience – Installing the Drainage System One of the biggest upgrades this week wasn't made to the plants themselves. It was made to the room. Back in Week Three we experienced a small flood caused by the drip irrigation system. It wasn't anything catastrophic—we cleaned everything up with towels and carried on—but it reminded me of something I've always believed. Automation is wonderful. As long as it's supported by good safety systems. Rather than hoping it would never happen again, I decided to improve the entire setup. This week I installed the Mars Hydro Auto Drainage System alongside the existing drip irrigation system. The concept is beautifully simple. The drip system feeds each plant from the main reservoir. Any runoff is collected inside specially designed trays beneath each grow bag. That runoff then flows into a small collection reservoir, where a compact pump automatically sends the water back into the main reservoir. The result is a much cleaner, safer and more efficient system that dramatically reduces the chance of standing runoff accumulating inside the tent. It creates something very close to a closed-loop irrigation system while keeping maintenance incredibly straightforward. Good automation isn't about removing the grower. It's about removing unnecessary problems so we can spend more time observing the plants instead of cleaning the floor. ──────────────────────── 🕸️ SCROG Time Another huge milestone this week was finally installing the SCROG net. Last week's topping created multiple new leaders, and this week those branches were growing so vigorously that it became the perfect moment to begin shaping the canopy. The goal of a Screen of Green isn't simply to hold branches in place. It's about guiding every branch horizontally, creating an even canopy where every future flowering site receives equal access to light. Rather than allowing one dominant stem to race ahead, the screen encourages every branch to become a potential top. Plant A has responded beautifully. Her branches remain flexible, healthy and easy to work with, making the first stage of weaving both enjoyable and incredibly rewarding. The framework is now beginning to take shape. ──────────────────────── 🌿 Plant A Herself Every week this phenotype reveals a little more of her personality. She isn't the largest plant inside the Blue Tent. She isn't trying to be. Instead, she's developing into one of the most balanced plants in the room. Her branching is wonderfully symmetrical, the internodal spacing remains tight, and every new shoot seems perfectly positioned to become another future flowering site. The topping has encouraged vigorous lateral growth, while the improved feeding has given her that rich green colour that instantly catches my attention every time I open the tent. Looking beneath the canopy, her structure is clean, open and well organised, which should provide excellent airflow as flowering approaches. She's becoming exactly the kind of plant I enjoy growing. Calm. Balanced. Healthy. And quietly preparing for what's coming next. ──────────────────────── 👀 Looking Ahead Next week will be all about continuing to guide the branches through the SCROG while allowing the canopy to spread naturally across the screen. Most of the hard work has already been done. Now it's simply a matter of patience, gentle training and allowing the plants to keep doing what they do best. If they continue responding the way they have over the past week, I expect the Blue Tent to become a sea of perfectly level tops before long. Sometimes the biggest improvements don't happen because we force them. They happen because we create the right conditions and allow nature to do the rest. ──────────────────────── 💙 Thank You A huge thank you goes out to Zamnesia for making this entire project possible—from these beautiful Blue Waffle F1 genetics to the complete ecosystem surrounding this grow. A massive thank you as well to Plagron for providing the Premium Coco Growbags and the Hydro nutrient line that is feeding these ladies every single day. A special thank you as well to Mars Hydro for designing the drip irrigation and automatic drainage system that has become such a valuable addition to this grow. Although this isn't a sponsored product, it's one of those pieces of equipment that simply works. After our little flooding adventure a couple of weeks ago, this system has brought an extra level of safety, cleanliness and peace of mind to the grow room, allowing me to spend more time enjoying the plants and less time worrying about runoff management. Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving growers from all around the world a place to document, learn and share our journeys together. And finally… Thank you to every single person reading these updates. Whether you’ve been following since day one, recently joined the adventure, leave comments every week, simply stop by to look at the photos, or even quietly disagree with my methods—you all contribute to making this community what it is. I genuinely appreciate every view, every conversation, every piece of advice, every question, every like, every criticism, and every bit of support. I hope you’re all having an amazing week, and I can’t wait to show you how these beautiful ladies evolve in the next update. Until then… Growers Love, happy growing, and I’ll see you all next week. 🌱💙

This little girl started her journey on April 4th with germination into a water glass and finished up on June 27/20 – Day 78 from germination. She was a fun grow and was very resilient through the whole run. She spent most of her grow time in a 20/4 light schedule. She formed nice frost levels and stayed to a very nice and manageable height of roughly 20” tall without topping or bending her main stem. She was not as fussy about nutrient levels and took them well. She does like her medium on the dryer side though. Small little auto bush of OG Kush crossed with Indica genes😃 She would make a nice a plant to run while you are vegging out some photos for 6 or 8 weeks as she is not very big in size but will swell up and yield decent weight👍 She was grown in a 3 gallon fabric pot with coco coir and maybe 15% perlite. She was fed salt based nutrients……..so sorry but they are flushed out and that is what I am more comfortable with. Focus on the early growth with microbes, fungi and kelp!! She was fed the normal pattern with pH being held around the 5.4 to 5.8 range in feeding. Then as flower approached, I gave the pots a more consistent look at the runoff numbers and she was running 7.8pH coming out of her!!!!! WTF. She stayed in her pot that she was planted in and fought this issue all through the rest of her grow. The pH issues started surfacing around week 3….as we headed into flower of course. Scratching my head for weeks, I ultimately didn’t change anything other than really low pH feeding going in…….below 4 idea. For weeks she had 3.9 water going in and still getting 7.8 running off. I initially felt it was related to cheap fabric bags so I cut slits in the very bottom of the bags that stayed and tried transplanting other girls into plastic pots, which it can be fabric pot issues but I am not as convinced anymore for this run that there was an issue there, wasn’t sure about giving her Magnesium on top of Magnesium and therefore did I mess her up good on the inside early on in week 2 idea, out of options I changed back to RO water and that seems to have solved my issues……I was using tap water that was not filtered this run🤬 The pH was high so that was adjusted but with the ppm being at 185 to 200 range I chose not to buy a filter and just dechlorinated the water only. I was tired of lugging 5 gallon water bottles in and out of the basement😃 That is a difference from all other grows…..silly for not catching this by week 4! So…….back to lugging bottles in and out of the basement😂😂😂 She really started to take shape around weeks 7 and 8 and formed a beautiful little cannabis plant and grew to 20” tall and roughly 18” wide. Main focus with her was to just perform LST on side branches and let the top go…….I wanted to just let her go and see what would happen to her main cola for size and height……plus I don’t do that…….I always bend over the tops on my grows so this was a little different for myself. She grew very nice leaves and a lot of them. This pheno had a lot of leaves to her and that is fine……its not really my first choice in characteristics of a plant though..…..so much more work at trim time……Green Poison XL Auto, SWS71, was a dream to trim👍 as a comparison!! She didn’t fox tail very much she firmed up her buds towards the end. The resin production was a little slower coming out in her but by week 7/8 she was getting pretty impressive😋😋😋 White and sticky!! She smelt of woods with citrus notes…..works for me👌 There were no issues at all retaliated to pests or bugs……I threw in a couple sticky traps but there weren’t any to catch. She handled the high humidity in this run great and there were no signs of any powdery mildew👍👍👍 She is a very stable strain from Sweet Seeds! Day 63 was last feeding, flushed for almost two weeks. Rezin and Liquid Weight still given for one of the weeks but the last week was plane water. In hind-site I think I should have hit her with some Flawless Finish to help get that last bit out of her. She did feed on most of her nutrients but some of the lower leaves were still more green that I would have liked. She was cut down on day 77…..11 weeks is about what I suspect looking at her in week 7…….this was roughly 8 weeks flower time……makes sense😃 She grew for 75 days and then I decided what the heck…….she needs a hole in her stem to stress her out😃 I didn’t try breaking a branch but rather drilled a hold into the base of her stem……something new to try out. I think I will try more holes next time….max 3 I think……then I want to run a couple with cracking their stems and see if there is a difference👍 I feel more in control of a drill and its accuracy vs bending branches and they snap where they want to…….anyway it was worth a try!!!! Worst case, it made it easy to hang her as a whole plant to dry😃 This girl battled pH issues all her life and as a result the buds were not where I would have liked them. There were not fluffy…..but here were not as hard as I would like for rolling joints, so the whole girl went to concentrates She dried for 7 day as a whole plant, 2 days more in smaller branches, then 1 day curing in jars before dry ice sift. She yielded 74g of dry cured buds, 2.65 ounces. Not bad…..I don’t think her buds would have gotten a lot bigger but they certainly would have had more weight if they firmed up…..grower issue, not genetics. So…..lets make some rosin from this girl🤩 The yields on this and making her hash a perfect colour are not what this process is about…..let’s get that out of the way right away……this is about another way to enjoy and consume my cannabis for my own relaxation and medicinal needs. Taking pictures of rosin is always a challenge…..it is always dark in the pictures unless you are using a nice DSLR to let more light in. Rather than making bubble hash with water, I just used the bags to make a dry ice kief from the buds. Unfortunately I couldn’t get a block of dry ice and had to use these cubes…….don’t like these as much because there are too many surfaces beating your green plant material and your kief goes green before long when shaking. Could have done it with out ice all together…..nicer hash but lots left on the plant afterwards that way so yield is low. Used two bags in this extraction, the 220 as the bag for edibles and the 120 as the bag for pressing rosin to smoke…..dry ice hash rosin!! The yield on this from the 74g of bud was 22.4g kief. 220 bag was 12.6g and the 120 bag was 9.8g. Not great I guess but I didn’t want to keep going for 4 and 5 minutes with the bags…..these were roughly 2 minutes with the 220 being 3 minutes on the high side. You can certainly see that the 120 product is more golden in colour than the 220 but since I didn’t crazy, the 220 is still a very nice colour. Last step on this journey was then to take the kief and make our rosin. I pressed product using 37um bags with the temp set at 160 degrees. All were done the same for the most part……roughly 4 gram presses, the same temperature, and the time. The first presses were 90 to 120 seconds. If a second press was done on the pouch, then it was at the same temp but for only 40 to 50 seconds. The yield on this was just shy of 7 grams…….6.77g…..roughly 30% yield from Kief???,…..roughly 9.2% from flower???…….would have likely done better right from flower😂 😂 😂 it was fun, regardless of the yield😃 Tasty rosin!!!! Can’t beat rosin for getting the true tastes of the plants. These numbers are absolutely due to my abilities with extraction.......sure don’t judge the genetics based on my returns......she is a frosty plant and will give great returns!!!👍👍 Several pictures show that, I hope!! So that will wrap up this diary for Sweet Seeds Killer Kush Auto, SWS56. Certainly give this girl some consideration if you like OG Kush and also have space concerns in your grow. She is beautiful frosty little girl with a punch. Certainly get the usual woody and citrus notes from her rosin and she has a lasting high. She helps to get get you going and willing to finally start cleaning that corner of the room you have been avoiding…….watch out though…..distractions😃……next thing you know 40 minutes go by and you are staring at a box of DVD’s wondering what happened to CD’s…….cassette tapes (the art of the “mix tape”), 8 tracks, vinyl……ALBUM COVER ART Baby!!!!!! Then its either back for another rip, or get your crap done because the next rip leads into even less work getting done😃😃 Great job as usual @Sweet_Seeds !!! Looking forward to the next one……Cream 47 photoperiod……actually, already done germination and a new diary coming👍👍…..compare a 3 gal pot to a 5 gal pot, or a fabric vs air pot, and see what my yield differences are?? Thanks for the read and greatly appreciate the comments Growmies!!!!! Love spending time on a forum for growers to help fellow growers. Much grower love and thanks again for your time, opinions, and suggestions🙏🙏🙏 Cheers!!

4/20 4:20AM GREATEST DAY OF MY LIFE!!! STARTED THE DAY WITH FAST BUDS ORDER!!! I GOT MENDO FROST AUTO!!!! BOGO AT FAST BUDS IS MIX PACK HEAVEN DAY!!! 4/22 2:15AM Grow is great so far, time to plan for the Halloween '26 grow ""🎨Interview with the Vampire (the Anne Rice classic or the movie/TV adaptations) mixed with What We Do in the Shadows absurdity is perfect for a grow diary. The contrast between dramatic, brooding immortal powers getting completely wrecked by Louis’s dramatic bullshit (adopting a kid, Paris theater massacre, ruining everything for everyone) turning into dumb, self-aware comedy like the mockumentary style of WWDITS is hilarious. It keeps the energy light and creative instead of overthinking. Here’s how to make the “Vampire Girl” (your RF3 auto pheno with the tight Brothers Grimm-like structure, extra resin, and unique bud formation) the star of a comedy grow diary: Core Storyline Idea Main Character: Your plant as “Countess Frostfang” or “Lady Resinbite” — elegant, immortal, super-frosty vampire with those dense, icy trichomes as “eternal frost powers.” She starts powerful and mysterious. Antagonist / Comic Relief: Louis as the eternal buzzkill — the whiny, dramatic adopted “son” who adopts a human kid, drags everyone to Paris, kills the best actors (ruining the theater scene), and generally turns immortal life into a therapy session gone wrong. Tone: Straight-faced dramatic narration (like the interview) that keeps getting interrupted by absurd, stupid vampire fails — think “What We Do in the Shadows” energy where the vampires are incompetent, petty, and the jokes land because they’re dumb. Example diary entries could be: Week 1-2 (Veg): “Countess Frostfang awakens from her coffin. Her tight structure and resinous aura promise immortal yields… until Louis shows up whining about ‘eternal loneliness’ and insists on adopting a stray clone. Now the canopy is crowded and she’s arguing about feelings instead of photosynthesizing.” Flower: “Paris has been a disaster. Louis killed all the best actors, so now the buds have to perform in a low-budget theater. But damn, look at that frost — these trichomes could stake a hunter from 50 feet away.” Harvest: “In the end, Louis ruins everything as usual, but the Countess delivers dense, resin-packed colas that taste like blood oranges and dark chocolate. Moral: Never let a brooding Louisiana vampire adopt your grow.” Make the “vampire teeth” on fan leaves by carefully trimming a couple of serrated edges into sharp points (do it late in flower when leaves are less critical, or use Photoshop/GIMP for diary photos). Add little red “blood” drops (safe plant-safe dye or just edit in post) or tiny fang stickers for the comedy photos. Practical Grow Tips for This Pheno Since you’re excited about the tight, compact structure (rare for an auto, more like Brothers Grimm hash-plant vibe or Frost Banger), lean into it: Training: LST (low stress training) or light supercropping works great on compact plants—keeps everything even without much stretch. Resin focus: Boost with PK boosters in mid-late flower if your nutes allow. That extra frost you mentioned should shine under good light. Diary style: Take photos with dramatic lighting (red gels or just phone flashlight from below for “vampire” shadows). Caption them in over-the-top Anne Rice prose that immediately undercuts with WWDITS-level stupidity. This kind of silly, self-deprecating humor is exactly what keeps creative energy high and gets you out of your head—like you said, the dumber the premise, the better the flow. "" 4/22 3:48AM RF3's are ALL showing resin like a photoperiod and like OG Triploid. Some bud structure is EXACTLY like a PHOTO Black Tee Tangie Trailer Park Boys / Brothers Grimm. Can not tell them apart up close just PERFECT. The RF3's are really fun to grow! 4/23 12pm 👍 4/24 2:24AM ONce Reva gets here...a new story, she has horrible taste in men due to the whole Anakin thing....now i have to make Klan robes fro Jar Jar.... I have some ideas... Reva and NEW Sith Lord Darth Klanakin ...its Jar Jar in disgues....really really good weed today. 4/26 3am PH meter was off by a point...it was lower than it should have been. so that also explains why I got such deep colors right away, Purpinator and super low PH 5ish. but fixed now. Got a new one. looking better 4–26 3:27 AM. Plants are doing OK watching Bob Ross on YouTube really makes you feel talentless. You know these people play video games and swear and flip out when they lose? just as funny to watch people try to do a Bob Ross painting and flip out cause it doesn’t look anything like what it’s supposed to maybe I’ll do that one of these days, swearing, breaking of things, it would be worth the price of admission, I think 4/26 12:52 PM once you get locked into a serious finishing sugar collection tendency is to push it as far as you can and I have I’m better off for it. Totally worth it.

This week was amazing guys. I literally watched the buds getting fat day by day. I am still feeding with a similar program and adding Aptus Regulator once per week to boost silica and some other minerals like molybdenum and boron. I'm flowering my plants in a hot environment with CO2 boost. PPFD is high to support these settings and thankfully my the pots aren't getting hot. No fungus gnats or any other pests, no root rot and bad smell. Everything is perfectly neat and buds are exploding. My expectations from this harvest is really high and I'll keep adding CO2 for another week. Some fellow growers asked for CO2 and PPFD measurements. I am sharing these information on this week's pictures. I got my CO2 meter fixed and I tested the CO2 PPM in different places of the canopy. Typical value for this grow tent with this CO2 setup is around 1100-1350. Temperature is fluctuating between 28-31 and the average PPFD on the bud sites is 1100 micro moles. I'm sharing CO2 measurements right under the fan, where you expect it to show the lowest value. Then I'll also share the CO2 PPM value coming out from the air pipe, which is normally attached to the grill of the fan. Direct output is now around 5500PPM and in the first two days, the meter shows 10000PPM which is the max value that it can reads. This bucket yeast CO2 reactor lasts for four days and I'm refreshing the mixture twice a week. This is huge CO2 with a fairly low cost compared to propane burners or CO2 tubes. Edit: I refreshed the CO2 bucket today and got you guys a video of the direct output. The system is outputting more than 10000PPM of CO2 and the meter can't measure it for the first two days. This CO2 method is a killer one for tent grows. Very low cost for very high CO2 concentrations. Hope these information helps. Happy growing 💪

Okay so the result of my LST surprised me like a lot. The plant looks great under the light, it’s still my second grow so I hope to learn a lot about the beautiful plants and how they respond. I want to experience everything to learn from them and know how to respond. I think this week went good but the dry wet cyclus is something I really needed to learn this week. I first tried watering every day but i noticed that the soil wasn’t dry at all, so I thought no that’s maybe just the soil. *Ive learned this cycle in the next week* spoiler alert: it wasn’t I still give around 1 tbsp of the molasses because the plant is really responding good to it. The small plant is also looking healthy so perfect, just keep giving her love. I did a big oops: So, the plant grew bigger and bigger and faster then I could keep up. So I decided to lst some more, Olga went perfect and I build a lot of confidence from that. So... busy with the other “big” plant and I started doing the head top, but the band was just to tight, but I noticed that to late *SNAP*. Did I just snapped the biggest branch of the middle plant? Yes, I hated myself for 4 days until I thought: there are no mistakes, just happy..... (fill in with your brainpower) well see what happens

We are talking about the harvest day of the first of our two fantastic TEST #2 that have a wonderful strain name, a genetic line still top secret but world-class, Zamnesia created it with love and we tested it before the release. Wonderful, I'll start by telling you that if I didn't have to try many strains I would probably do entire grows only of this strain. It is truly of the highest level, I grew two plants of an almost ideal phenotype, one left to grow straight and grew out of all proportion and another with a single topping as soon as I noticed that they were becoming immense. The one you see in the photos is the one with the single topping, lots of cleaning underneath and other lateral brunches that gave us flowers that were nothing short of spectacular. Very long, hard and heavy and you have to see how much resin. I was starting to fear mold but there is no trace of it, for this reason I harvested the plant at the beginning of the harvest window. It's a little early this time but the plant is very indica we can say this and we don't want to make it too soporific so I harvest it very early in the harvest window, very cloudy/milky trichomes, I must admit still something too transparent (when it's a little too much I don't struggle to say it guys but often you exaggerate with the application to the letter of all amber and the plants become soporific, even the sativas, I recommend finding your happy medium and adapting to the characteristics of the plant. Zamnesia has made some very interesting, short and exhaustive posts on instagram). We also have a lot of body, I did everything to keep these very heavy flowers upright with cotton ropes that held the plant up anchored here and there where I could, I'm 185 cm and it's practically as tall as me, look at what a beautiful monkey face I have in the photo where I demonstrate it. If I were you I would try it as soon as it comes out. pure TNT, the techniques are highly recommended, next time I grow it I will topping it endlessly and keep it lower. I risk making 200 grams per plant. Do it yourself, doing the math is worth it. And badly. Once again I have to tell you that I was impressed by how Plagron fertilizers work combined with Plagron soil and all the recommended additives. Do it and I repeat, do not neglect soil and additives. The plant has eaten the 100% Organic feeding of Plagron: Alga Grow and Alga Bloom as basic nutrients, the rooting Power Roots, the amino acids of Sugar Royal, the Enzymes of Pure Zym that eat the dead parts in the soil, Power Buds that always gives us immense satisfaction with rapidity of start of flowering and composition of the buds, the legendary Green Sensation that now needs no introduction, a name a guarantee. Also the foliar Vita Race used for the first time with success. The fertilizer kits that you can find on the Zamnesia website are perfect for this purpose, there is everything. Choose them based on their mineral/organic composition and the soil you have chosen.

This is it for these killer kushes! Different phenos, one was ready in 8 weeks, one in 9 and this last one in 10! The quality is definitely here, it’s just the speed that ain’t 🤣! Overall I’m happy with them even though every single one hermied on me (100% my fault)! No seeds in the end though, as I kept plucking balls and nanners every day for a couple of weeks!
