The last two weeks have mainly been about survival and recovery. The clones were still dealing with the consequences of the heatwave, and some of them had a much harder time than others. While some plants slowly started to recover, others were fighting just to stay alive. The progress was far from uniform. Some clones developed a stronger root system relatively quickly, while others remained much more fragile and took considerably longer to establish themselves. This is where the unplanned asymmetry of this grow really began. The original plan was to create a relatively uniform canopy from genetically identical clones. Instead, the plants were already developing at very different speeds before the main grow had even properly started. At this point, the clones ranged from approximately 10 cm to 36 cm in height. Some were stronger. Some were weaker. Some were still fighting for their place. But all of them are still here. 🌱 INTO THE FINAL POTS 16 plants were selected for the main setup, while the extra clone remains on the bench as our substitute player. 🏀🌱 The clones were transplanted into four 15 L pots, with each pot divided into four sections. This gives each plant approximately 3.75 L of growing medium. The four pots were placed into two AutoPot Easy2Grow trays and connected to the system. 🌱 PREPARING THE GROWING MEDIUM For this grow, I am using the BioTabs Just Add Water strategy. The growing medium was prepared with the BioTabs components needed to create the nutritional and biological foundation for the plants. ⚡ SILICIUM FLASH Silicium Flash was added as an organic fertiliser and soil improver, providing silicon and essential nutrients to the growing medium. 🌿 STARTREX Startrex was added to help create a biologically active growing medium and support the soil life around the roots. BACTREX Bactrex was used to introduce beneficial microorganisms into the growing medium. 🍄 MYCOTREX Mycotrex was added to provide beneficial mycorrhizal fungi and support the development of the root zone. 💥 BOOM BOOM SPRAY After transplanting the clones into their final pots, they received another treatment with BioTabs Boom Boom Spray. I decided to use it as an additional boost while the plants were adjusting to their new growing environment and continuing to develop their root systems. The goal of the Just Add Water strategy is to prepare the growing medium with the necessary nutrients and beneficial biology from the beginning. From here, the plan is to keep things simple. RO water. After a few weeks, the AutoPot system takes over. And let the biology in the growing medium do its work. 💧🌱 The 16 clones are now finally in their permanent positions. The tent is already beginning to fill up, but the plants are still very small and have a long way to go. The next challenge will be to see how these survivors develop now that they have more space and a prepared growing medium. Let's see what happens next. 🌱💚

6/17 - Watered today. 5 days since last watering. Made sure to add water slowly to the cups, as the medium I'm using is a coco/peat based medium, and I realize that peat becomes hydrophobic when it dries out, and the top was close to that. By watering pretty slow, it allows more of it to be absorbed vs just running through. Both Dreamcatcher plants have 2 nodes developed and are starting on their third nodes (slightly behind the Chinook Haze also being grown in the tent). 6/18 - I watered yesterday, then life hit, and the plants were without lights for just over 24 hours. Looks like the newer area started to yellow a bit, which I assume will green again within a day or two now that the lights are back on. 6/19 - Plants are looking good to me. There seems to be a lot less vein swelling, so it appears the chance of overwatering that looked like it was coming on a week ago is subsiding. Got to let them grow some more before I start to chop them up in an attempt to mainline. 6/21 - Plants will be watered tomorrow. Other than that, it is just slowly moving along, and I am considering going to 1g pots soon. I believe I am going to try to go from solo cup to 1g to 5g this time, and I think that by doing so, I might not need to fertilize at all during veg at least. I figure if I can get 3-4 weeks out of the solo cup, then similar out of a 1g, by the time I get to 5g, I will be close to 8-12 weeks, and close to flipping time. I have dimmed the lights a bit, and raised them close to 35" above the 2 Dreamcatcher plants in hope to induce a little stretch between nodes, but they still seem to be growing fairly compact. 6/22 - Watered the plants today. Could have probably waited another day, but I figure 5 days between watering was enough, and the cups did feel pretty light.

Well Cannafam weve come to the end(not of us i still love you 💚) Firstly i would just like to say a massive thanks to Divine Seeds for letting me take part 😊 I gave her the chop yesterday slightly earlier than planned as the nute burn had started getting near the buds and i didnt want to compromise bud quality. The trichomes on the upper half of the plant are mostly cloudy with a few amber and some beautiful pink ones also, however pics shown are mainly from the lower buds due to slight issues trying to keep buds still while aligning the phone/magnifier 😊 This gal grew like an absolute beast throughout the cycle and i would say is the most rapid ive grown! She was absolutley honking in the end and i can't wait to sample her sweet buds. Overall this grow has been immensly enjoyable and il deffo be growing again at some point. Ive not done wet weight as yet as i didnt want to chop her monster buds up, but once dry il trim further and give the final weight with smoke report and further photos. Thank you to everyone who has commented/liked and i hope you've enjoyed this diary 😊 Peace and Love Friends ✌️💚💚💚 ********** Update************* Hey Cannafam, Well ive tried this gal after curing in my vape and very happy. After drying there was a fair bit of shrinkage but the smoke is lovely. As soon as you take a bit she stops all thoughts in the mind immediately followed by complete muscle release and i would say moderate pain relief. A medium strength Erb good for the evening and i just chilled out watchin southpark and fell asleep shortly after for a really good nights sleep which is perfect for me, i will definitely grow this gal again 😊✌️

One of the dark devils is extremely stunted.... it's almost comical how small it is.... but she went through a lot .......it's a wonder she still alive .....some other people might have just thrown her away and started with some other seeds...... but it's kind of an experiment .....to see the extreme they're able to go through

She accelerates in budding. Nice plant perfectly shaped. Slight defoliation of a very little few fan leaves. Close to an other FF that i thought was also a Wedding Cheesecake becasue both were very similar during veg, but she started to flower a good 10 days later. Maybe a different pheno from the WC, but If someone has an idea about what strain from the @FastBuds42 Fast Flowering Mix pack it is, i will appreciate his knowledge. Gorgeous, healthy and vigorous plants, great breeding job. But too bad that they are not labelled, it is important to anticipate flowering's needs and also if i xant to buy back this particular plant, i can't be sure of what it is exactly. But with a little help from our friends, nothing's impossible :)

Day 36, start of Week 6- Seeing good growth the last week. Had to get a new HPS bulb so stuck w the metal halide this last week till it gets here. All is good. Got a gorilla cookies that is growing uncharacteristically slowly so I decided to go a different way and run a Purple Lemonade FF in its place. Got no time for slow growers

Day 38 since starting germination: Everything is looking healthy and happy. I’ve FIMed the main and continued leaf tucking & LST. Upped the amount of Diamond nectar from 1ml/gal to 2ml/gal. Keeping the lights on 20/4 has kept the average low temp a degree higher at 66. I also changed the positioning of the lights. Now the Mars Hydro tsl2000 is providing ~500-550 ppfd across the canopy. At this point the plants in the RDWC loop have different nutrient needs so when I did my water change I also changed the orientation of my buckets. I removed the bucket with the Northern Lights photo period from the loop so it could be connected to its own reservoir and be fed a veg nutrient solution while the Sour D auto gets its bloom nutrients.

This is how things are looking at the end of Week 3 of Flower. Really happy with the way the ladies are looking, only complaint is the growth. Don't think I have done a good job at transplanting this time around.

Og kush is nearing it's final stages of flower. I did notice the top bud started developing bud rot but it was caught early enough that I am hoping it didnt spread any further. Mystery strain looks like it is finally in early flower stage. It has been raining almost daily so the plants have been living under a green house roof.

Week 2 — Faster Growth, Strange Structure, and More Stable Conditions Strains: Guava Auto & Triton Biscotto Lime Auto Planted: August 25, 2026 Grow space: 60 × 60 × 160 cm tent Medium: Regular pre-fertilized soil Pot size: 5.7 L This week, the plants finally started to speed up exactly as I hoped. The difference compared with the first week is very noticeable now, and growth seems to be getting faster day by day. Overall, I am much more relaxed about the slow start. Both plants are clearly developing, even though they are doing it in very different ways. 🍑 Guava Auto Guava looks quite good at first glance and is definitely the more normal-looking plant of the two. My only concern is the stem. I think I may have had the circulation fan running too strongly for a while, and it seems like the plant reacted to the constant movement. The stem looks like it may have been under a little too much mechanical stress. I have already reduced the airflow, so from now on I just want a gentle movement around the plant rather than having it constantly pushed around. Other than that, Guava looks healthy and continues to grow steadily. 🥦 Triton Biscotto Lime Auto Biscotto is still the strange one. Its growth pattern looks very unusual because it seems to be splitting into two main stems almost from the beginning. Instead of developing as one obvious central stem, the structure already looks like it wants to grow into two separate arms. I am very curious to see how this develops. In a way, this could actually make future LST easier because I may not need to top the plant at all. If both sides continue growing evenly, I could potentially work with two naturally formed main arms and let each of them develop their own branches. For now, though, I am not assuming anything. The plant has looked unusual since germination, and I still have the feeling that the root system may not be developing perfectly. I will simply keep watching how it responds over the next week. ☀️ ENVIRONMENT The biggest improvement this week is that the environment finally feels much more stable. Temperature and humidity are now in a range I am happy with, which makes the whole setup feel much more predictable than during the first week. The light is currently running on a 24-hour schedule. Watering is roughly once every two days at the moment. I am not using huge amounts of water — just enough to make sure the root zone receives moisture without completely soaking the entire pot unnecessarily. 🍃 Current Thoughts: So far, I am happy with the progress. Guava is developing fairly normally, while Biscotto is turning into a bit of an experiment because of its unusual two-stem structure. It may become a problem, or it may turn into something interesting and useful for training later. For now, I am trying not to interfere too much and simply let both plants establish themselves. Growth is finally accelerating, the environment is much more stable, and the grow is starting to become a lot more interesting. Fingers crossed for Week 3!🍀

Day 32 - Heater was blowing directly on a couple of the leaves that turned brown. Cut them off. Raised lights up again. I think my development is a little slower than others but I have had a lot of trial and error. Day 33 - added tomato rack for LST. growing nicely. Day 34 - Stopped nutes as I was getting a little leaf burn in lower leaves. Looks good otherwise. Lights are dialed in. Day 35.- This is what too much light looks like. Day 37 - Switched to the grow light. Moved the heater. Growing nicely. Day 38 - Lights dialed in REDUCED water. Stopped watering for 2 days. Day 39 - Full Lights on now. Put more holes in the pot. Draining nicely now.
