Cover crop breaking through lots of visible beneficial insects dirt smells good. Primed for the rest of veg/preflower. It with mycorrhizae molasses humic fulvic liquid this water will hit with the remainder of the alaska fish emulsion the next few watering plan on keeping kelp mycorrhizae and molasses. Mostly applying top dress going through flower as well as some potash and the remainder Pk blend I prepared. Ph a little higher than I wish might be a culprit of some over watering gonna allow a long dry retest and go from there those that have overcame the hormonal flowering shit are beginning to take off. Been amending the gravel and dirt surrounding my planting area and water around it too trying to encourage further outward root spread. Been holding strong not watering the main zone although I have been eating outside the main root zone in order to encourage root branching to go under the wall. It seems to be working. Might try my hand at some foliage feeding going into next week. Also excited for the substantial amount of growth going into this week’s close. Next week should be rather fun to document. Capping off this week strong. equinox tomorrow. clocks ticking, daily incremental light decrease.

The watermelons are around one and a half week in flowering an they stretched a lot more than the fat banana, this is obviously a personal experience, but let see, at the moment we have quite some bud sites around the plant and she's nice and green

Mid week 3 flowing looks ok I got 1 plant showing stress but I think it from the defoliation and lolly poping but hay I can’t complain it’s learning at the same time .👽✌️👩‍🚀☘️

Not much to report this week. This experiment has taught me plenty of lessons about this method. I suspect this crop will be a pretty large loss. The soil is too hot given the amount of left over wash from previous grow, the new seed was doing real well early in the week, but as it reached out and grew roots it just food nutrient burn :| One of the initial seeds (front left) has already started to enter flower phase. I suspect it will start to thrive a bit better , as it nute requirements will go up.

Blüten, Blüten und noch mehr Blüten. Wenn ich das Zelt öffne, ist der Geruch inzwischen sehr intensiv. Das dürfte allerdings auch an den hohen Temperaturen liegen. Das Aroma macht jedenfalls Vorfreude auf den Geschmack der fertigen Blüten. Das könnte genau mein Ding werden. Die ersten Härchen werden langsam bräunlich, und die Blüten sind bereits deutlich weiter angeschwollen. Rückblickend hätte ich den einen oder anderen Trieb mehr entfernen können. An einigen Trieben ist sogar die Blütenspitze eher klein geblieben. Aber das ist halb so wild. Da der Ertrag ohnehin über den in Deutschland erlaubten 50 g liegen dürfte, werde ich den Großteil zu Hasch verarbeiten müssen. Die Temperaturen sind diese Woche extrem. Die erwarteten 35 °C im Zelt wurden zeitweise sogar überschritten. Wie erwartet scheint die Pflanze damit gut zurechtzukommen. Durch die Bewässerung mit Blumat bleibt die Erde konstant feucht. Wichtig ist nur, dass der Tank nicht leerläuft. Die Parameter in Woche 12: Controller Einstellung Tag: Temperatur und Luftfeuchtigkeit 24C°-26C°, 45% - 55% Controller Einstellung Nacht: Temperatur und Luftfeuchtigkeit 24C°-26C°, 45% - 55% Durchschnittliche Tagestemperatur: 33,2C° Durchschnittliche Nachttemperatur: 29,3C° Durchschnittliche Luftfeuchtigkeit Tag: 52,1% Durchschnittliche Luftfeuchtigkeit Nacht: 58,2% Durchschnittlicher VPD Tag: 1,9 Durchschnittlicher VPD Nacht: 1,3 Durchschnittliche Bodenfeuchtigkeit in Mbar: 86 LED Leistung: 60% = 180 Watt Beleuchtungsdauer: 12 Stunden Umluft: Stufe 2 oszillierend

Plants are growing at a nice pace especially dealing with the extra high PH runoff

Smooth sailing on this batch deep into flower! Were sitting at 85 days today and they are looking fantastic! Steady feeding flora bloom and flora micro. Also giving them 5ml/gal of advanced big bud. These ladies are FROSTY! Cannot wait till these ladies wrap it up! This dinafem cheese xxl is a beast. She isn't close to finishing just yet. Not gonna be a huge yielder, but one hell of a pretty plant.

Week 6 - The Purple Power Is No Longer The Tallest In The Forest But It’s Still The Prettiest. The Purple Power Has Been Dethroned By 4 Of The Other Plants. Everyone Except For The Gorilla Glue Is On Bloom Nutrients. Height: Gorilla Glue: 19 Inches Purple Power: 28 1/2 inches Girls Scout Cookies(3gal): 30 inches Lemon OG: 34 1/2 inches Girls Scout Cookies(5gal): 34 1/2 inches Stardawg: 33 1/2 inches These Plants Are All Correct Measurements Size May Look Different In Picture Because Of Pot Size.

Hola a todos, esta semana elimine el silicato y el PK de la solución de nutrientes, además cambié el sistema de riego para poder suministrarle más agua a las plantas, las flores comenzaron a engordar con lentitud, al parecer, aún queda un largo camino para la cosecha. Saludos!

It's been 78 days since sprout, the plants are all still coming along nicely, getting heavier by the day even though it doesn't always seem like it. I always have difficulty realizing how much growth happens in a week. I felt like they hadn't bulked up much but then I looked back at my last update and clearly was wrong. I am trying to figure out how much time before harvest, but I am still leaning toward closer to 100 days. The plants are still being fed crop salt at the ratios posted a few weeks ago, currently I plan to do one more res change with full strength nutes and then after that two weeks of their Cake finishing nutrients (https://cropsalt.com/products/cake) which would put me a few days past 100 days with a harvest date of July 18th or 19th. This past week I also set up a Home Assistant dashboard to monitor the tent and added a camera as well. Kind of a bit late for this grow but it will be awesome for the next time around. Aside from the sensor in the tent, I have also purchased a wireless battery-powered temp and humidity sensor that will be going in the 5-gallon bucket I am going to use to cure. Here is a guide I made if anyone is interested in setting something similar up. https://gist.github.com/Jamal-J-Jackson/f47baa9e5a9f9534affa543583022abf#file-home-assistant-guide-md

So I finally got myself a EC meter and I'm thankful sice I was watering with a very high EC (3.2) and I've been lowering it down up to 1.6, and also I've watering them every day with plenty of runoff. Hopefully everything with run smother now!

The Blumats are pretty much dialed in after a few days. I used 5ml of flying skull Z7 enzyme in my 5 gal reservoir to keep the reservoir clean. I also have been ph correcting the reservoir every morning to 5.8-6.0. The first day of week 4 I hand watered in Nutrients mix until runoff(about half gal). I removed the large fan leaves on all three plants, then I tied Down all my Mains to keep them horizontal. I applied another half gal of Nutrients mix on the 4th day of week 4. On the 6th day of week 4 I experienced a runaway with my Blumats because I changed the settings too much at once and flooded my grow box. I used a shop vac to suck up all the runoff. I refilled my reservoir, added enzymes and lowered the ph to 6.0. I then dialed in the blumats based on Blumats instructions and will only adjust in micro adjustments this time to avoid another runaway 😬 Luckily running in Coco Coir having the girls over saturated wasn't the worst thing and the roots are sucking up a lot of the extra moisture in the medium happily 😀

23.08 The Drainmaster moved into the tent to control the drain. Defoliated and lollipopped them. 25.08 First run with the drain system. Nutrient Solution (Tank): Volume: 8.5 L EC: 3.05 pH: 5.5 Nutrients: Advanced Nutrients Micro/Grow/Bloom + CalMag Irrigation Run: Pump time: 30 minutes Total Drain: 5.0 L (≈ 60%) Drain EC: 2.6 Drain pH: 6.0 🔎 Observations Drain volume was far too high (target is ~20%). Drain EC lower than input EC → medium was relatively “empty”, plants absorbed nutrients quickly. pH drift from 5.5 → 6.0 shows some buffering effect left in the reused substrate, but limited. Substrate behaves more like coco than soil now (low buffer, fast response). 💡 Insight / Lesson Learned 30 minutes pump time is way too long → resulted in 60% runoff instead of 20%. For 8 × 1 L pots, a single irrigation event should be ~1.0–1.2 L total, with ~200–250 ml runoff. Solution: shorten pump time to ~5 minutes and re-test runoff. Better approach: run shorter, more frequent irrigations (daily) with a lower EC (2.0–2.2), instead of heavy feedings (EC 3.0) only 3× per week. This will keep EC more stable in the root zone and prevent salt buildup in the tiny 1 L pots. 27.08 Adjusted the pump timer to 5 minutes, gave the first dose of PK13/14.
