W12 - ESTHER 🌱is growing well. Days become longer with more hours of sunlight ☀️ Still can't spot any signs of flowering 🌻 in her 😥🤦‍♂️ I started to defoliate branches from unnecessary leaves. Regularly make some tea 🍵 from them with a dash of virgin olive oil. I need to admit makes me very mellow and tastes delish 😋

🙌👀🙌 Ze strudleez! 🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🍰🍰🍰 Lots of buds sites firing now🔥🔥🔥 I've added a new SpiderFarmer Dehumidifier to the grow plus another Co2 bag. Dialed into 55% humidity now.

Very happy with progress so far. Very straightforward with the top dressing and watering in with tap water left out for chlorine evaporation and pH 6.5-6.8. Making nutrient additions weekly. Watering as needed. Thinking about when I want to begin LST.

Og Kush это проста Монстар но и Gorilla не отстаёт :)

Week 13 and 3rd week of flower started today 8/29. I did some Schwazzing last night! They were definitely ready!!! And today they are absolutely LOVING their new cut, leaves justa pointing right up 😎 Now I just sit back for a bit and watch the progress 😁 I have a video on my YT of me doing the Schwazz: https://youtu.be/gV8Ca02IJIY If it doesn't click here with a link you can just copy and paste! Happy growing everyone ✌️🍀✌️ UPDATE: 9/1 Everything is looking good! The ladies are still taking well to the Schwazz and flowers are coming along nicely! Starting to get that beautiful aroma 🙃 It's hurricane season so we'll have some rain coming up but I'm only 3 weeks in flower so that will be gone come crucial time. Temps outside are starting to go down so it's looking like a nice, gradual transition! You don't want to immediately adjust your temps, rh, etc. You have to ease it all down during early flower 😉 That's about it for now, just wanted to share my vibes with yall. It's all about the VIBES 😎 Happy growing everyone ✌️🍀✌️

4/15/25 Things are progressing nicely. Some plants dont seem to be doing too much but 3 of them or so that are really standing out. Im curious if some of these are going to be longer flowering time than anticipated with the very obvious sativa dominant plants.

Week 6 of to a good start! They look happy and healthy. Time to flip to flower soon! 👽👉3/10 Climate is automated and working accordingly to my adjusted VPD settings. Happy and healthy, actually surprised they've grown so much lately. 👽👉4/10 Waiting for their complete recovery, so they can be flipped to flower (Defoliation the 30/9, im giving them about a week) 👽👉5/10 Water day* Plain ph balanced water. Need Runoff PH and EC down a little bit. 👽👉6/10 I applied the SCROG net. 👽👉7/10 Doing some minor tweaks to the setup + VPD settings(from 1.0 to 1.1). Approaching the flip to flower, so VPD Did a bit of defoliation before the flip next week 👽👉8/10 Today, i learned from research on biobizz nutrients https://www.thcfarmer.com/threads/biobizz-nutrients-answers-from-biobizz.78899/ (Direct answer from biobizz) With the answers, my view on feeding biobizz changed a bit, and i was luckily about to switch up the nutes. Good timing. Waterday* PH6.2 Introducing Biobizz CalMag(0.5ml/l) + BioBloom(0.25ml/l)+Topmax(0.25ml/l)+Rootjuice(0.25ml/l) Still 2ml/L Fishmix+BioHeaven(Fishmix will be switched out with BioGrow) 👽👉 9/10 Last day of the week for my plants and last day in veg! They look fantastic and well recovered at lights on! (Look at the before/after lights vids/pics) Raised VPD by 0.1: VPD settings(from 1.1 to 1.2)

Start 3 weeks.21 days

Lovely strain to grow. Easy to feed. Would happily grow this again.

Day 16 Tue PH 5.9 EC 0.6 DLI 18h PPFD Water 24 Day 17 Wed PH 6.0 EC 0.6 DLI 18h PPFD Water 23 Day 20 Sat PH 5.7 EC 0.6 DLI 18h PPFD Water 25

Buds are now looking ripe. The trichomes are mostly milky and senesance has set in nicely. Pushing until i start seeing 1 or 2 Amber's and then will induce 48hours of darkness to attempt to increase thc production before harvest

Hello from Georgia00

7/3/22 Stella is still moving along with the late bloom nutrient level this week. She’s getting close to the ripening stage, but still a week away. Today she received a full gallon of water mixed with the following nutrients: CALiMAGic - 2 ml FloraMicro - 3.8 ml FloraGro - 3.8 ml FloraBloom - 4.2 ml Floralicious Plus - 2 ml Liquid KoolBloom - 1 ml The pH was 6.6, and wasn’t adjusted. She took nearly the whole gallon before giving back some runoff, but it was sufficient. The runoff pH was 6.3. The tent was 80.5F, with a humidity of 60%. She is starting to fatten up and her branches are starting to get weighed down. I’ve already used all of my LST poles on other plants, so I’m going to have to figure out a way to make more space. She sits in the middle of the tent, surrounded by 4 of her daughters, and a smaller auto-period plant sitting on a box in front of her. My tent is FULL! I ran out of time today and didn’t get any new pics of her, so I added one that I didn’t use the other day. Take care, and happy growing everyone! If you’re in the USA 🇺🇸, July 4th💥, happy Independence Day!! 7/5/22 Well, it finally happened! Stella’s branches have gotten heavy enough to tip her over when she has space to herself. She is in the tent with several other large plants (her 4 daughters + 1), so she rests nestled amongst them, so she stands. When I took two of her daughters out of the tent to feed them, she tipped right over. To make a VERY long story short; I tied her upright with almost all of her branches bundled up loosely so that they all get light, then fastened her to the back of the tent. It’s going to make feeding her tricky, but she’ll be stable, and getting full light exposure. It also opens up more space in the tent. Not much, but some. I tied up her daughters branches too. Enough about that. She received a full gallon of water mixed with the same nutrient level as the last feeding noted above. The solution pH was 6.5, and wasn’t adjusted. She gave back plenty of runoff with a pH of 6.3. The tent was 83F, and humidity was 65%. That’s a little high to me, at least compared to my previous grows. However, my tent has never been this full before. I adjusted the fan to a higher height, and with all the plants tied up somewhat using LST methods, I’ve increased open space between them with hope of improving air flow. We’ll have to see how it goes. Happy growing everyone! 7/7/22 I’m just going to write the basics today. Stella is still triced up nicely in the back of the tent so that she doesn’t fall over because of the weight of her own branches. Her buds are continuing to fatten up, and she looks lovely! Orange hairs all through her buds! Yummy!! She’s still getting the late bloom nutrients till next week when we actually begin the ripening stage. Today she took a gallon of the following: CALiMAGic - 2 ml FloraMicro - 3.8 ml FloraGro - 3.8 ml FloraBloom - 4.2 ml Floralicious Plus - 2 ml Liquid KoolBloom - 1 ml The pH was 6.6. I thought of adjusting it, but decided that it was good enough. She gave back plenty of runoff with a pH of 6.3. The temp was 83.3F, with a humidity of 54%. I didn’t take any pictures of her today. I was running between 2 rooms, and feeding other plants and just forgot. 🤷‍♂️ I’ll get pics later. Happy growing everyone!

So I had absolutely no ill effect on the plants at at all moving from the green buzz veg feed too the house & garden soil a&b feeds, I did not even given them a water only inbetween the two, I also went straight in with 50% the recommended dose stated on the house & Gardens bottles this switched happened the day before week 5 none showed any signed of defects or deficiency intact they exploded into life over night and then every day after that, I have been using the green buzz fast buds as a folar spry appied too the leaves of the early flower formation after lights out, They seemed too love that too and I also kept the note roots going in, I also started too apply C-RESULT at the fullbl dose stated on the bottle, The plants live this stuff if you have not tried it do it, I am not sponcered by c-result I was given this by my local grow store, It brings all the nutrients straight too the roots it states, All I know is this stuff triggers the plants too suck the pots dry in 24 hours, So make sure you have your feed bucket fully in order before adding this stuff as a mistake here could cost you, But get it right and in 24 hours these little autos doubled in size, It states too used week one of flower only and smells like a sewer lol I have today day one of week 6 Started too add house & garden Bud XL at half strength too increase next week and also I added there top shooter at 1ml per liter of water as 7 as I plan too removed all chemicals exactly as of day 1 of week 7 leaving me week 9 clean, I am training all the shooting tips too my scrog netting the best I can due too very limited space in the grow space, And am praying for some of the promised purple leaves on the fast buds Web site, I did not too these this time, I has on lemon pie this round that is 2 weeks behind the rest due too non germination but I am wondering if a staggered planting each plant exactly one week behind each other would give me a little more canapé space and the treat of harvesting a plant every week, Using the skyline 1000 only I did not too any of these autos 2 x strawberry cheese cake 2 x lemon pie 4 x fyah Sounds like a plan too me, Thanks for reading

Well, it looks as if one of the 3 plants is a male. I live in denial for one more day and then I toss it. Not sure which plant it is, as I painted over the strain names when I painted the cups grey. Smooth. So I will find out soon. Otherwise, good weather and some good growth. Roots are balled up at the bottom of the dutch bucket reservoir, Im sure, because I let the drip go dry for a day or two and the plants were droopin (coco)

💙 Project Blue Tent – Week 3 Blue Waffle F1 – Pheno A (Folder 13A) Welcome back everyone to another week inside Project Blue Tent! For anyone joining us for the first time, this project is all about exploring the incredible Blue Waffle F1 genetics from Zamnesia while putting the complete Zamnesia ecosystem to work. Every plant is grown individually, documented separately, and allowed to express its own personality, even though they all share the exact same environment. Unlike our 8×8 Adventure, where twelve different genetics share one room, Project Blue Tent is dedicated to learning every detail about these F1 hybrids. Every week we compare their growth, structure, vigor and responses while growing them in Plagron Premium Coco Growbags using the Plagron Hydro nutrient line. Every diary tells the story of one plant. Today, the spotlight belongs to Blue Waffle F1 – Plant A. ⸻ 🌱 Week Three – Finding Her Rhythm This week marked a noticeable change in Plant A. She started the week looking like a healthy young seedling settling into her new home, but by the end of the week she had completely shifted gears and began growing with much more confidence. The internodal spacing remains compact, her branching is symmetrical, and every day she seems more eager to push fresh growth from the center. One thing I really appreciate about this phenotype is how organized her structure already looks. Even without heavy training she naturally wants to build a balanced canopy, which is always a pleasure to watch. ⸻ 🌡️ The Blue Tent Environment This entire room is built around the Zamnesia ecosystem, allowing every component to work together. The Phytonaut LED continues providing an even light spread across the canopy, while the Grow Environment Controller manages ventilation and airflow to keep the conditions stable throughout the day. This week’s average environmental conditions were: * 🌡️ Day Temperature: 27°C * 🌙 Night Temperature: 27°C * 💧 Relative Humidity: 67% * ⚗️ pH: 5.8 * ⚡ EC: 1.61 mS/cm * 💨 CO₂: approximately 450 ppm * 💡 Light Schedule: 18/6 * ☀️ PPFD: approximately 350 * 🌈 PAR levels remain ideal for this stage of vegetative development. The plants continue receiving gentle but sufficient light, encouraging compact growth without unnecessary stretching. ⸻ 🥥 Feeding Update Coming from many years of growing in living soil, switching to coco is definitely teaching me a few new lessons. One thing I noticed this week was that the plants were beginning to ask for a little more nutrition. Their colour shifted slightly toward a lighter green—not anything alarming, but enough to tell me they were ready for a stronger feed. Instead of chasing deficiencies after they appear, I prefer listening to what the plants are telling me. Because of that, I increased the base nutrition. The feeding schedule is now: * Plagron Hydro A — 1.6 ml/L * Plagron Hydro B — 1.6 ml/L * Plagron Hydro Roots — maintained at the previous dosage This adjustment raised the EC slightly and should provide enough nitrogen and overall nutrition to bring that rich healthy green back over the coming days. Growing in coco is all about making small corrections instead of large ones, and that’s exactly the approach I’m taking. ⸻ 🚿 A Little Adventure… The Flood Well… Every grow has at least one story. This week’s story involved water. I’ve always joked that irrigation systems make me nervous because they work perfectly… until they don’t. This week proved my point. After activating the irrigation system, one small mistake turned into a flooded tent. Fortunately, it was nothing catastrophic. We immediately shut everything down, soaked up the water using plenty of towels, cleaned the tent thoroughly, checked every connection, and got everything back under control. Thankfully, this happened in coco, not soil. One of the great advantages of coco is its excellent drainage and oxygen retention. Even after receiving more water than intended, the medium remains highly aerated, allowing the roots to continue breathing. Had this happened in heavy soil, recovery would have been considerably more stressful. The plants never showed signs of distress, and after allowing the medium to dry slightly we simply resumed the irrigation schedule as normal. Problems happen. The important part is solving them. We’re already working on a better solution for the irrigation system, and once the new equipment arrives I’ll be sharing everything in the upcoming weekly reports. Mistakes are part of learning, and I think documenting them honestly is just as valuable as showing perfect results. ⸻ 🌿 Plant A Herself This lady continues to impress me. Her structure is compact. Her leaves are broad and healthy. The stem is already developing beautiful thickness with subtle purple pigmentation beginning to appear. Most importantly, every day she seems to accelerate. The newest growth is noticeably more vigorous than it was only a few days ago, which tells me she’s becoming fully established inside her root zone. She’s looking like a plant that’s preparing to explode with growth over the coming weeks. ⸻ 👀 Looking Ahead Next week should be an exciting one. With the feeding adjusted and the roots now well established throughout the coco, I expect significantly faster vegetative growth. We’ll continue monitoring colour, internodal spacing and overall vigor while preparing these ladies for the next stages of training. If Plant A keeps following this trajectory, she may very well become one of the stars of Project Blue Tent. ⸻ 💙 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. 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. 🌱💙 P.S. One final shout-out has to go to the Zamnesia ecosystem itself. As messy as the irrigation mishap looked, the Zamnesia tent tray proved exactly why it’s part of the setup. Every drop of water was safely contained inside the tent, with absolutely nothing leaking onto the floor. What could have become a much bigger problem ended up being nothing more than grabbing a few towels, drying everything up, and carrying on with the grow. Sometimes you only discover how valuable a piece of equipment is when something goes wrong—and this week, the tray passed that test with flying colours. Huge thanks to Zamnesia for designing an ecosystem that’s ready for real-world growing, not just the perfect days. 💙🌱

Still only gave them rain water. Time to let them go dry and start the feeding

8/31/2024 Both plants getting their first day of bloom spectrum lighting, red spectrum dominant. Already seeing signs of flowering on Plant A - the transition into flower must have been perfect. Otherwise, this plant might be an autoflower? DLI on canopy top around 30-32. Lights set to 70% intensity. Reduced lung room humidity to 50% target. Lots of rain lately and the dehumidifier is working hard to keep up with 60-80% outdoor humidity. Tent humidity is hanging out around 60-65% 9/2/2024 Checking over both plants and doing light defoliation of larger fan leaves. Looking for more pre-flower signs on Plant B. Small nodules appearing on plant B. slightly odd formations compared to plant A. I will be keeping a close eye on this over the next few days. Water level issues from last week are well within control. Since the fix was implemented the system requires about 2 fewer gallons to keep the system cycling as intended. Continuing to top the reservoir with fresh nutrient water with about 1 gallon of water per day. Still have not conducted a water change from the system. I will be planning one here closer to the end of this week when I have a little bit more free time at home. 9/3/2024 Plant A has a few signs of natural varieagation on fan leaves. Also found this cool leaf formation on a few of the larger fan leaves (see picture above). Plant B pre-flower signs still look odd, but monitoring closely. 9/6 Plant B still unconfirmed as a female. Preflower expressions are looking slightly more female, but no hairs yet. Both plants are looking healthy and doing well! The flow issues with the return line was due to a root mass making its way into the line and getting stuck. I was able to pump it out with some suction. Flow is completely returned and both buckets, back to stress free hydro for a few more days :D
