May 26th After so many weeks of sitting around 69% relative humidity, I decided to look into how suboptimal that really is. Turns out, pretty suboptimal. That's danger-of-grey-mold territory. So I shelled out for an upgrade. We've gone from a 100mm 170m³/h extractor fan to a modern 150mm 587m³/h version. The difference was immediate, even running at 75% of its capacity. It was even cheaper than the original! Technology is advancing even if we're going backwards. The weight of some flowers have begun buckling their stems, so I've given them support using some wire on the scrog net. Bought a bigger watering can too, so I'm giving her around 11L~ (a full can) every three or four days as necessary. (update: since the change in RH and massive increase in ambient temps, it's 11L every 48 hours~ish) Her main cola is way too close to the light for comfort. If I could raise it I would, but we've been out of room for a while now. Astonishingly enough, no signs of stress as yet. Maybe some foxtailing? No discoloration. Smells lovely already, if I disturb her at all the air becomes a stage for subtle wafts of something heavenly lmao. Fingers crossed as always.

Orange Bud Auto - Dutch Passion
🌱 **Week 8 of my Orange Bud Car - An incredible trip! **🌈 We have reached the **eighth week** of growth of my beloved Orange Bud Auto and, let me tell you, the route was nothing short of extraordinary! 🚀 ### 🌞 **Wedding light with PHLIZON FD8000! ** 💡 In this crucial phase, the **1000W** PHLIZON FD8000** lamp proved to be my best ally. 🌟 Thanks to its power and full-spectrum lighting, I noticed a significant increase in the rate of photosynthesis. My plants have developed wider and healthier leaves, with an intense green that makes them shine like precious gems! 💚 ### ⚡ **Heat Management: The key to success! **🔥 One thing I learned is how important heat management is. Thanks to the good balance of the temperature that the PHLIZON manages to maintain, I had no problems with overheating. I set the lamp at a distance of **60 cm** from the plants and used a strategic fan to maintain perfect air circulation. My friends wouldn't believe me, but I almost heard the plants applaud for the freshness! ### 🌿 **Nutrition: the secret of health! ** 🥇 Let's move on to the **nutrition** chapter! The **Advanced Nutrients** line has really transformed my cultivation routine. In particular, the **Cal-Mag** played a crucial role in addressing any nutrient deficiencies. I have administered Cal-Mag during the last few weeks, noticing a noticeable improvement in the appearance and robustness of the leaves. 🌳 They look sleek and vibrant, and my shoots look more vigorous than ever! 💪 ### 🔄 **Set up upgrade: a choice that paid off! ** ⚙️ Speaking of changes, my recent set up upgrade had a significant impact. I replaced the old fans with quieter and more efficient models, ensuring the right air flow without disturbing my evening relaxation in the grow room. And if you're wondering if the cost is worth the candle: absolutely yes! ✨ ### ❓ **Request for advice: control units for temperature control! ** 🛠️ At this point, I turn to you, illustrious growers! I really need some suggestions on **temperature control control controls**. I'm considering different models to handle fans, extractors and heaters, but I want something that works well and, of course, that is reasonable in price. What experiences have you had? Share your pearls of wisdom! 💬 ### 🌼 **Looking to the future! ** 🔍 I am extremely curious to see how the growth of my plants will continue in the coming weeks. The buds are beginning to form, promising a harvest that promises to be spectacular. The energy is palpable and I can't wait to document every step of this trip. 🌿✨

1/11/2024 Vegetation Week 1 Day 1- I have a root almost in the water.. Yay!! Top feeding is almost done. she is looking a little sad as I work the transition Top feeding but once the roots are fully in the water she will start to take off. Ensured my PPFD is set between 250-300 it is set to: 258 1/12/2024 Vegetation Week 1 Day 2- I have a root in the water.... NO TOP FEED TODAY SIR!!! now that a root is touching the water and she looks stable, I am not going to topfeed, I will see how she looks tomorrow and as long as everything looks good I am going to go ahead and do a change and week 1 fill on Nutes.. I know it is a couple of days in but the same Nutes go through Week 2 and get changed at Week 3 So I should be good to go.. I will just ensure I fill to root touching the water when I change tomorrow. 1/13/2024 Vegetation Week 1 Day 3- Water Change Day!! I added 36 Gallons of Water to the system: Silica= .5mil/gal= 18mil CalMag= .75mil/gal = 27mil FloraMicro=3.0mil/gal = 108mil FloraGro=2.0mil/gal = 72mil FloraBloom= 2.0mil/gal = 72mil PH DOWN= 30mil Very important thing with this system is to now wait the 24 hours for the system to adjust.. Do not make any further adjustments to your PH up or Down for 24 hours to allow time for the system to balance. 1/14/2024 Vegetation Week 1 Day 4- Today I just adjusted the PH to ensure that it was right at 6.0 1/15/2024 Vegetation Week 1 Day 5- Today I Cleaned up the lower damaged leaves from the transition from top feeding to roots in the water. She looks good today. 1/16/2024 Vegetation Week 1 Day 6- Today I just took a picture of the beautiful lady for Log. Other than that just normal day to day operations, check the pH, check the Humidifiers and fill as necessary, check level of water in the Res. Everything looks great. onto Tomorrow!! 1/17/2024 Vegetation Week 1 Day 7- Today I filled the humidifers, checked the PH and just let her grow.. Grow baby Grow.....

Day 172. Some strains ended up frosty, smelly and nuggy, so I already have 76 g from first Strawberry, rest should bring some buds too, couple plants will go untrimmed to my friends as presents, one was already given away ... Think I will have like 300 g easy, and my friends got same amount as presents. Not a bad project, with loads of issues, happily almost no care was given or needed, so I count it as a result achieved : 1. I know that Hermie is bringing other hermies. 2. UK weather is only for autos, that lesson should be learnt long time ago, but I still hope to find mold resilient strain... No updates or other strain harvests will be done, have no time to play ... Happy Growing !!!

Week 10 – Day 70 🌱 She’s now finishing the last swelling phase of the buds. From this point on I’m giving only plain water and letting the soil dry well between waterings. The buds are not the biggest I’ve ever grown and it probably won’t be my highest yield per plant, but what really surprised me is how uniform this plant is. The buds are very consistent in size and the whole structure is super compact. In my 1m grow box I think I could easily run 9 plants like this. The canopy would be very even and the space would be used much better. Now I’m just waiting for the final ripening and keeping an eye on the trichomes. Harvest is getting close. Terpene profile & trichomes ✨ The plant is not covered with a very thick layer of resin. In my opinion this might be one of the downsides of running a 24/0 light cycle. From my experience it seems to increase yield but slightly reduce the quality, quantity and size of the trichomes. Because of this I recently changed my light schedule to 23 hours. The central light now turns off a bit earlier while the side lights and the 660nm far-red stay on for a short time to simulate a sunset effect. I think this could be more beneficial for the other plants in the tent. With this plant I will also try to induce a bit of mechanical stress to see if it can stimulate more resin production. I’ll document the results in the next few days. The terpene profile is already very interesting. The aroma clearly reminds me of ginger, with sweet candy-like notes and a touch of lime. Very unique and quite surprising. Big thanks to the breeders at RQS for this little gem. And as always, happy growing to everyone! 🌱

The plant has continued to stretch into this week and I don't think it's going to stretch anymore it looks like it's starting to build up their flowers. The plant does not need a lot of nutrients in fact it's not one of those very hungry just a standard diet will be sufficient thank you for reading I will continue to update have a happy grow.

Big cracked on the main cola of plant #4 not dying but very fragile. She will be okay I think. Update : 22/08 Mealybug, so far I see only 1 found some info from Google this can be a problem with infestation Treatment : I clean off the stem area with water mix with drop of alcohol and washing liquid.

She is as tall as the other plants positioned on the top shelf. I topped Cadillac1 but since she is asymmetrical, I don’t think topping will create 2 tops. Time will tell. All the girls bounced back after the topping.

Super Silver Haze Closet Grow
Topped one of them but it's still to small to bend in any way, at least for this week. Looks like the nutrients in the All Mix soil might not be enough for this stage. I will be dropping ActiVera and BioHeaven and will start introducing BioGrow, BioBloom and TopMax. CalMag I use pretty almost every single watering other than in flushing as the water is very soft. Temperature a bit hot this week. The light is working at about 70% right now but I can probably lower it if it gets too hot. As this is not an auto, and might be quite branchy, I wanted to try and make a nicely organized structure so I can go crazy with topping and try and get a new record output for this space. Let's see how that works out :P
