The girls are coming on nicely now. Just starting pre flower this week. Had to relocate tent due to space requirements and stealth. Tent is now squirreled away in a pantry slighty bigger than the tent. Added new fan and dehumidifier to the mix. Taking plenty of water and feed. No signs of stress or uptake problems so far and all is going swimmingly. Getting ready for flowering. Lights up to 68%, scrog net at the ready. UPDATE Closed loop dehumidifier system been running all night, without short cycling. (Lights on 18.00 to 14.00). Took a little tweaking here and there but canopy enjoyed a VPD of 1.1 to 1.2 consistently. I am approaching lights off now, we will see if the closed loop will handle lights off humidity peak. So far I am impressed with this system.

Day 31 veg… Some these girls are looking mutated 🤨 I have really low humidity which i will correct with a Humidifier tomorrow… What are these mutants coming from is it heat stress ??? And also the spots on my girls ? I have been on holiday for a few days so made a pre mixed feed for the girls for my freind to water… Im not aure if the badly mutated plants are worth pulling or growing out still?? Anybody got experience with them ?? Could it be down to really low humidity Girls will be getting transplanted tomorrow.. Check my other cuttings diary Temp 25 day 19 night Humidity high 45 low 20

She is stretching, and budding up alright! She also took nicely to the scrog. Let's see how long i will keep it this time before getting annoyed by the reduced handling capabilities 😬 Waterin still 6L at 6PH, reducing grow and introducing bloom, currentl 3ml/L grow 2ml/L bloom, next watering will be 3 Bloom 2 grow, 4-1, to 5-0. This has worked nicely with the Whiteberry so i will keep this up. Before whiteberry i always hard-switched, but this seems fine as well.

💙 Project Blue Tent – Week 10 Blue Waffle F1 – Pheno B 🌸 Let Her Do Her Thing Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter inside Project Blue Tent! 💙🌱 If you've been following this project, you'll know that the last few weeks have been full of action. Long vegetative growth. Aggressive stretching. SCROG training. A second SCROG. Major defoliation. Moving the ventilation system. Raising the LEDs. Improving airflow. Adjusting the nutrition. We certainly haven't been standing around doing nothing. 😂 But this week? We're doing something very different. We're watching. And honestly... when I look at Blue Waffle F1 Pheno B right now, I don't think she needs me doing much else. 🌿 PHENO B – LET HER DO HER THING Pheno B is looking absolutely beautiful. She's sitting at approximately 145 cm and has developed a fantastic flowering structure after the work we carried out over the previous weeks. And this is where I think patience becomes one of the most important tools a grower has. We made the big interventions. We opened the canopy. We removed unnecessary congestion. We added the second SCROG. We created more vertical space. We improved the airflow. We gave the branches additional support. Now the plant needs time to respond. There is no point constantly changing things simply because we feel like we should be doing something. Sometimes... the best intervention is no intervention. 😂💙 So this week, we're letting Pheno B recover, settle into her new structure, and continue putting her energy into flowering. And she's doing a beautiful job of it. 🌸 THE RESULTS OF THE PREVIOUS WEEKS One of the most satisfying things about this week is being able to look back at the work we performed earlier and actually see the results. The heavy defoliation dramatically changed the structure of the plant. At the time, it was a big decision. The canopy had become extremely dense, and we needed to create more space between the branches and flowering sites. But the goal was never simply to remove leaves. The goal was to make the plant more manageable. Now we're seeing the benefit. The structure is much easier to read. The flowering sites are more visible. Air can move through the plant more freely. The branches have room to develop. And Pheno B doesn't look like she's missing the foliage we removed. She's simply continuing forward. That's exactly what we wanted. 🌿 This is one of those moments where you have to trust the work you did several weeks earlier. You can't rush this part. You just watch. 💡 INTRODUCING LUMIFLORA UNDER-CANOPY LIGHTING There is, however, one new addition to the ecosystem this week. The **LumiFlora 150W full-spectrum under-canopy light** is now officially part of the experiment. And with Pheno B's size, I think the timing makes perfect sense. The main LEDs are doing an excellent job illuminating the upper canopy. But these plants have developed so much vertical structure that the lower portions naturally receive considerably less direct light. That's simply the nature of a large, dense flowering plant. So instead of continuing to remove more foliage simply to chase light penetration, we're trying another approach. We're bringing some light to the lower canopy. The LumiFlora is a **150W full-spectrum fixture**, with additional red emphasis, and we're positioning it underneath the canopy as supplemental lighting. The main fixtures remain responsible for the primary light source. The LumiFlora is there to complement them. I'm particularly interested in watching how the lower flowering sites develop now that they're receiving additional supplemental light from underneath. This isn't about replacing the overhead lighting. It's about giving the lower part of this very large plant another opportunity to receive useful light. And now... we watch. 💡🌱🌸 🕸️ THE SECOND SCROG IS DOING ITS JOB The second SCROG is another part of the setup that I'm very happy with. Pheno B has a lot of vertical growth, and as the flowers continue to develop and gain weight, having that additional support becomes increasingly valuable. The first SCROG helped us organize the plant. The second SCROG is now helping support the flowering structure. It's a simple concept, but with plants this size, that additional layer of support makes a huge difference. We're no longer trying to force the plant into a particular shape. We're simply giving the branches somewhere to rest and something to support them as they develop. And that's exactly where I want to be at this stage. 🌬️ AIRFLOW – KEEPING THINGS MOVING The airflow system is also staying exactly where it is. We've got airflow working above and below the canopy, helping keep the entire structure moving. That's particularly important now that we've introduced supplemental lighting underneath the plants. The goal is to keep the lower canopy from becoming stagnant while maintaining good circulation throughout the upper flowering structure. Again... nothing dramatic. Nothing complicated. Just consistent airflow and a stable environment. And that's another reason why I'm not changing much this week. The system is working. So let it work. NUTRITION – NO NEED TO CHASE NUMBERS The feeding program remains consistent as well. The girls are continuing with the PLAGRON Hydro program: PLAGRON Hydro A — 2.2 ml/L PLAGRON Hydro B — 2.2 ml/L 🌱 PLAGRON Hydro Roots — 1 ml/L 🌸 PLAGRON Power Buds — 1 ml/L pH adjusted as required The plants are responding beautifully, so there is no reason to start changing things just for the sake of changing them. They're growing. They're flowering. They're drinking. They're healthy. So we continue. That's the approach now. Consistency. Observation. Adjustment only when the plants actually ask for it. 🌸 THIS WEEK IS ABOUT PATIENCE If I had to describe this week's update in one word, it would probably be: Patience. 😂💙 We've done so much over the previous weeks that it's tempting to keep doing more. But the plants don't necessarily need more intervention. They need time. Time to recover from the defoliation. Time to settle into the second SCROG. Time to continue flowering. Time to respond to the new lighting arrangement. And time to show us what all the previous work has accomplished. That's what we're doing now. We're watching. 🌿 PHENO B IS SHOWING US THE RESULTS Looking at Pheno B today, I can see the results of the entire process. The long vegetative period gave her the structure. The first SCROG organized the growth. The flowering stretch tested the limits of the room. The defoliation opened everything up. The second SCROG gave the branches support. The ventilation changes created more vertical space. The additional fan improved circulation. And now the LumiFlora is providing supplemental light underneath the canopy. It's almost like we're finally reaching the point where all those individual decisions are becoming one complete system. And Pheno B is right in the middle of it. 🌸 She's not asking for another big intervention. She's asking for time. So that's exactly what she's getting. 🌡️ CURRENT GROW CONDITIONS 🌸 Flowering: Week 10 📏 Height: approximately 145 cm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 ☀️ Day temperature: 27°C 🌙 Night temperature: 27°C 💧 Relative humidity: 61% ⚗️ pH: 6.01 ⚡ EC: approximately 2.49 mS/cm 🌡️ Solution temperature: 26°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: 24°C 🌬️ CO₂: approximately 666 ppm 💦 Watering: approximately 1.6 L per plant / 24h ? Pot size: 8 L 💡 LumiFlora Under-Canopy: 150W Full Spectrum 🔬 SAME ROOM. DIFFERENT PERSONALITY. This is one of the things I love most about Project Blue Tent. Pheno B is sharing the exact same environment as her sisters. Same room. Same lighting. Same irrigation. Same nutrition. Same environmental targets. Same cultivation philosophy. And yet... she is still Pheno B. She has her own structure. Her own rhythm. Her own way of filling the space. That's exactly why we're documenting these plants individually. We don't just want to know how Blue Waffle F1 performs. We want to see how each individual phenotype expresses herself under the same conditions. And Pheno B is giving us a very interesting chapter. 🌸 FROM GROWING TO FINISHING We're now moving further away from the training phase and deeper into the finishing phase. The structure has been established. The canopy has been managed. The support system is in place. The environment is stable. The nutrition is consistent. The airflow is moving. And now the flowers get to become the main story. That's why I'm deliberately resisting the temptation to keep changing things. We've already done the work. Now it's time to see what the plant does with it. 💡 The LumiFlora gives us one new variable to observe. Everything else? We're keeping steady. Because sometimes the best experiment is knowing when to stop experimenting. 😂💙 🔭 LOOKING AHEAD Over the next few weeks, I'll be watching Pheno B closely. I'm particularly interested in: 🌸 Flower development throughout the canopy 💡 Response of the lower flowering sites to the LumiFlora 🌿 How the plant continues recovering from the defoliation 🕸️ How the second SCROG supports the developing flowers 🌬️ How the airflow performs through the mature canopy How the plants continue responding to the current nutrition But no major interventions are planned. The plant looks happy. The environment is stable. The structure is where we want it. So now... we let her work. 🌸💙🌿 🙏 A HUGE THANK YOU A huge thank you once again to Zamnesia for making Project Blue Tent possible and for giving us the opportunity to explore these Blue Waffle F1 phenotypes individually. Thank you to PLAGRON for the Hydro nutrient line and for supporting these girls throughout this vigorous cycle. A massive thank you to Mars Hydro for the irrigation and drainage system that keeps the ecosystem running smoothly. Thank you to LumiFlora for the 150W full-spectrum under-canopy light, which we're now introducing into the experiment and watching closely as the plants enter this important flowering stage. And of course, thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the platform to document the entire journey. Most importantly, thank you to everyone following Project Blue Tent. We've spent weeks training these plants. We've managed the stretch. We've opened the canopy. We've added support. We've reorganized the room. We've improved the airflow. And now... we finally get to watch the results. 💙🌸 Pheno B doesn't need us to keep pushing her. She doesn't need another dramatic intervention. She needs time. So that's what we're giving her. Time to recover. Time to flower. Time to develop. And time to show us what she can do. Until next week... More flowers. More observation. Less interference. And hopefully... a whole lot more Blue Waffle F1 magic. 💙🌸🌿 Growers Love, happy growing, and take care everyone! 🌱💙

Not an overly impressive strain and I would say she was not that hard to grow. If I even grew this one again I would let it go naturally with some LST. Wanted more grape flavours but they don't really come through in the smoke. There's a bit of a sharp fruity smell that's sort of piney with a hint of fuel at the end. The smoke is not too flavourful in my opinion but that just means I didn't grow it well. Super tight nugs so be careful with humidity as stated above. Also she's a bit of a light feeder so be careful with your nutes. As you can see I burnt her tips and over fed her a lot. Not a bad yield though! I've only really smoked the lowers on this one so far so that gave me a bit of a racey high, just slightly racey. I would accredit that to the lowers not being mature enough at chop. The plant is super dense and since I mainlined it the lowers didn't receive enough light. I tried to let the lowers mature more but the plant stopped maturing when I chopped the tops, this caused stress and the plant just shut down basically. Not sure if I would grow Blimburn's GDP again until I grow the real GDP.

Everything's still going pretty good. With my previous grow I had some problem with overwatering (classic noob mistake), so as you can see on the video I'm giving them small amounts at a time once every 4/5 days. Made a photo of the light that I'm using. Flowering mode is turned off so power consumption is around 120 watts.

Corrected the nutrient ratio to 120-20-100 ppm. Plant is still stretching and I'm waiting she start fattening. Two sanlight are going to be implemented for a CO2 heavy growing

My girls are continuing to do well, and spread out. I had a little mishap with the watering pump as it stayed on all afternoon, and drained the nutes bucket, but the girls did not seem to mind and have continued to flourish. I missed a couple of days photos due to changes in my work schedule, but will try to keep on track for the coming week. I have decided today to switch it over to bloom as the canopy is full enough for this first run. I have turned on the bloom switch on my grow lamp and set my timers to a 12-12 schedule starting today. Next week's timelapse should be interesting.

Day 15:Gave water & nutrients (2 L each). For the looks they do very well - dark green. Fanleaves build little sunroofs over a good amount of new shoots from the nodes😊. Planns for this week: will keep the soil moist and spongy and wait for the first roots to come out the bags. Till there i'll keep my alternating rhythm of clear water/nutrient solution. As soon as the pots are fully rootet through, i'll start feeding with a little drain, so i can observe wether my soil gets too salty or not. Further i'll keep bending the tops, in order to give more light to the younger shoots. As soon as the stems start making diameter, i'll prepare my scrog-net. Day 16: everything fine so far - nothing to do.....let them ladies do they thang...... Day 17: 1.5 liters of water each (pH 6.2) 1st root made it throug the bottom-edge of the pot💪!!! strong white and meaty😁. stems get stronger now, plants show dark green colour. 1(!) tipp shows a tiny little tipp-burn. i will keep watering 'till the ladies loose a little of that dark green..... just to avoid overfeeding. Day 18: 1.25 liters of water each (pH 6.2) Everything fine so far…….. still dark green an vital. Soil is soaked (i had first little drops coming out the bottom after watering this morning) Thoughts: More LST? Less LST? These fanleaves are really huge and make real sunroofs right above the new shoots. I don't see any way to get the shoots into the 'sun' but bending those fanleaves away.....but honestly..... nope! Since the lights are running at 60% (~600 ppfd) already, i rather give the littleones a soft start. They'll make it through the roof one day. My real 'concern' is the height. Yet the stem doesn't really push upwards..... if these ladies stay short, it'll take plenty of time to create a scrog 😕. Wonder wether it could help, if i let them grow straight up for a while and bend them again later. Any suggestions? Day 19: plant 3 really pops out some roots...😁; elsewise everything fine...... Day 20: Poured out some 1.5 l of water to each an had a decent amount of drain…… pH 6.1 EC 2.4 - 3.4 (average 2.9)🤡😵‍💫! Since the ladies don‘t show any tipp-burn, i will keep watering with drain (daily from now on) instead of flushing them - no panic here 😎. i guess it was just some accumulations from feeding without drain. Stems get stronger…… slow but steadily……. They still don‘t make much hight, though they produce mass. No worries yet:-) What's next? Will keep watering with drain and have an eye on EC. As soon as it gets below 1.4/1.5 i'll start feedin nutrients again. In case the ladies start getting brighter, i'll start feeding just underneath the EC, measured at last. Day 21: Drain EC still rising!!! (top 3.7/avg. 3.0)..... still not panicking - i observed very few leafs, rolling up their teeth...... but there are some. No tipp-burn at all. 1 liter poured out, would produce about 0.4 liters of drain - i guess there is still a lot of root-growth happening. Main colas and shoots are developing fine. Still dark green. Lifted the lights a bit - since the ladies took a little hight😁. Thoughts: According to the producer, my soil has an EC of about 1.2. Factoring the amount and concentration of nutrient-solution fed, i can only etsimate, there are some accumuations, residue or whatever, washing out from top to bottom. Though i'll have to check for signs of overfeeding...... and do a little flush ........only if REALLY necessary😤! In an ideal world, the ladies would demad more nutrients with any bit of growth, so i would just have to feed them water, another 2 or 3 days and everything was just perfect😁😁😁 UPCOMING: Week 4 😶

August 28 2026 She is starting to stack flowers now, and still stretching. She's actually branching more than stretching, but it has been rainy and cold over the past week, with last night dipping to 9 Celsius. She's looking pretty beaten up at the newer growth from all the cold. The forecast shows it warming up for the next week or two, with warmer nights as well, so with any luck she will get the sun and warmth needed to pack on some weight and finish.

Switched from 24/0 to 12/12 at the end of day 14, also switched the 730nm Led's on. Its been 7 days the plants have started growing a lot faster but there's still no pistils showing. I started feeding biobizz grow @ 2ml/l At the moment there getting watered every 3-4 days. The light is showing 25000lux on a lux meter app.

Really nice plant to grow the high is nice and mellow, if I was to do this strainbagain I'd try go for the photoperiod to give her more potential but over all great grow and fantastic jar appeal.

After deciding to start this new growing journey, I chose to germinate a Banana Purple Punch seed from Fast Buds. This particular strain caught my attention with its unique characteristics, and I couldn't resist giving it a try. I began by using a hydrogen peroxide water solution to germinate the seed, which helps oxygenate the water and prevent harmful pathogens. After about 36 hours, the seed cracked open, revealing the first signs of life. With a taproot emerging, I carefully transplanted the sprouted seed into a 20L airpot, ensuring enough room for the roots to breathe and grow freely. This marks the beginning of an exciting new adventure, nurturing this intriguing strain to its full potential.🌱💚 _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ One of my cannabis seedlings unfortunately didn’t survive in the pot....😭 Now, I’m trying again with two more seeds of the same strain, but I’ve changed my approach. Once they've successfully sprouted, I transfer them into coco tablets. There, they’ll remain until they’ve developed healthy roots before being moved to their final growing environment. I’m hopeful that this method will help me handle the early phase of the cannabis plants more successfully, and I’m excited to see how things turn out.💚💚

So this is the start of the fourth week with me. I find this very engulfing. I like spending an hour with them a day and move the little ones out of the bigger fan leaves shadow by tucking the larger ones away giving the little ones a chance to get more light and flourish. I’m noticing more the strain my one girl went through compared to the others, her leaves being smaller than the other girls. I’ve tried to give them the best environment I can and realize I still play a huge role in their life. This is my first grow and I love it. I hope they grow up well and flourish. They were fed last week and had a bit of nutrient burn so this week I gave them just water. I’m not sure how much longer I should veg but I hear in the scrog game the longer you veg the better. Hoping for the best for everyone on GrowDiaries and their grows!
