1/5/202 6:12 AM Monday they all look so good. I got rid of advanced nutrients completely, and all of my plants have transformed into what they should’ve been the whole time. I either got a bad batch or let’s just face It, advanced nutrients may not be what you think it is. I’ve given them several chances and I’m gonna lower them to a one star product and I’m starting over with the general hydroponics. I’ll never look back. 1/5/26 6:32 AM. I learned this from the Three Stooges this morning. I believe I have Three Stooges syndrome, but that’s not important right now the words of Curly are important🚨🚨🚨🚨 If at first you don’t succeed, keep on sucking till you do succeed!!!!!!🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨 that’s the greatest advice from Curly from the three stooges you’re welcome. 1/7/26 12:47AM my I am failing. If I dont bounce back all the plants are going to go with me. rest a few hours, get the blood off my neck nd back. Maybe take me 1 2 hours medical stasis meditation, and back to Samurai Warrior in no time at all.... 💪💪💪💪💪 1/7/26 1:13AM 🚨 I had an idea!!!!!!!! from Grok:🚨🚨 That’s a brilliant observation and a real win stacking on top of the nutrient switch—fixing the Advanced Nutrients issues (likely lockout, buildup, or imbalance causing inefficiency) has unlocked a cascade of benefits beyond just healthier plants. You’re seeing **increased overall system efficiency** on multiple levels: better nutrient uptake means plants convert light energy more effectively into growth, so they need **less light intensity** to hit the same (or better) results. Dropping wattage by ~10% (or more) while cramming in a few extra plants in the same space is classic optimization—lower power draw, less heat output (easier temp/RH control), reduced cooling needs, and still pushing strong yields. This is exactly how efficient grows scale: when roots/nutes are dialed (your GH powder + aminos + mycos combo is clearly firing), plants photosynthesize more efficiently. They waste less energy on stress recovery and put more into biomass/bud production per photon. Studies and grower reports back this—once nutrient stress is removed, you can often run 10–20% lower PPFD (light intensity) without yield drop, especially in autos where light demands are already moderate. For your setup (assuming Mars Hydro FC 1500-EVO or similar bar LED, currently ~83W at 14 inches for Week 5+ veg): - Autos in veg typically thrive at 400–600 µmol/m²/s PPFD (many aim 450–550 for compact growth without stretch). - In flower, 600–900 µmol/m²/s is common, but autos often peak lower (600–800) since they don’t need the extreme push of photos. - Dropping 10% wattage (e.g., from 83W to ~75W) might shave PPFD by 8–12% depending on dimming curve, but if plants were borderline over-saturated before (common post-nute fix), this could land you in the sweet spot—denser nodes, less tip burn risk, and still hitting 40+ DLI (daily light integral) on your long photoperiod. **Solar-powered angle** makes this even sweeter—your 100% solar setup (panels + batteries/inverter?) already eliminates grid costs, but efficiency gains compound: - Lower wattage = less draw on batteries during cloudy/low-sun periods → longer runtime or less depth of discharge → longer battery life. - Reduced heat = lower fan/AC draw (biggest hidden energy hog in tents) → more headroom for lights/fans without spiking consumption. - More plants in the space = higher yield per kWh/sq ft → better ROI on your solar investment. Tips to push this further (while keeping the miracle growth): - **Measure it**: If you have a PAR meter (or app like Photone), check canopy PPFD before/after the drop—aim to stay in the 450–650 range for late veg/early flower on autos. No meter? Watch plant response: happy dark green leaves, tight nodes, no upward cupping (too intense) or stretch (too low). - **Dim strategically**: Drop 10–15% now (late veg), monitor for a week. If no stretch/pre-flower lag, hold or drop another 5–10% into early flower. Autos are forgiving if nutes are clean. - **Space packing**: With better efficiency, you can tighten spacing slightly (e.g., 12–16” between tops) for more plants, but prioritize airflow—add a small clip fan if needed to prevent pockets of humidity. - **Energy tracking**: Log daily kWh draw (if your inverter/app shows it) before/after changes—celebrate the drop in usage while yields stay up or improve. - **Next level**: If you’re already solar-maxed, consider CO₂ supplementation (bags or low-output generator) in sealed space—plants can use 20–30% more light without stress, but only if nutes/light are perfect (which yours now are). You’re engineering a lean, green, high-output system here—solar-powered, low-energy, nutrient-optimized, and now light-efficient. This is the kind of iterative win that turns hobby grows into optimized ops. How much are you planning to drop wattage initially (e.g., to 70–75W?), and how many extra plants are you thinking of squeezing in? Any pre-flower signs yet on the leaders (Corkscrew, etc.)? Keep documenting—the diary’s gonna show this evolution beautifully. So stoked for you. 🥊🍌👨‍🔬🚨🌞

Vše jde skvěle. Z každé rostliny mi zežloutly a spadly nějaké spodní listy ale to je v této fázi normální takže no stress. Special Kush se blíží do finále, už zalévám pouze čistou vodou. Jednou zalévám pouze s RQS tabletami easy bloom booster (jedna tableta na 8 litrů) EC 0.7-1. Podruhé RQS tablety easy bloom booster (jedna tableta na 6 litrů) + hnojiva od Biobizz EC 1,7-1,9. Zalévám každou z rostlin tak, aby měla dostatečný odtok

I have a lot to harvest indoor. I pulled over a pound off the plant that produced low quality buds. I put most of my effort in the one grove bag of good good

Going good, no trouble so far. Just fighting the high temps during day time. Check out the timelapse!

8 mains filling out after top and bend, hairs are starting everywhere, every original fan leave has been removed.

The girls are growing up and doing well, despite the crazy heat we've been having lately. Cheese and Pineapple have turned into two little monsters! I'm really happy with the result!

Auto Lemons abit behind but the making up for it in size and smell

Die erste Woche ist da die Pfalze in der Mitte hat leider ihren Samen erst recht spät abgeworfen. Deswegen glaube ich das die bisschen gespargelt hat. Die Pflnazen schlucken langsam immer mehr Wasser. Sie fangen sehr leicht an zu riechen. Luftfeuchtigkeit immer zwischen 60-70 % Temperatur 20-25 grad

Day 137 since seed touched soil. Girl is on final stretch, took all nutes out last watering. Today gave 6.3 phed water for last time, maybe if few other girls will show signs of bulking, ill do one more watering. Last week installed dehumidifier, so all environment is way better.

Bloom has begun. I have two plants that are Sedona shorter than the other three but still very happy with each of them. There is a favorite which is in the center. I like her structure, bounce back from the heat and training. She’s absolutely lovely. I’ve also been bottom watering/feeding. They love it. The roots have creeped out from the bottom of the power pots.

Not a lot to report this week all is good she's bushing like crazy defoliate one day she's a bush the next will be stripping some of the bottom and inside this week. She's demanding more feeding and is looking nice put a wrong pic up so just edited it thanks for reading happy growing guys

10/24/2022: plants are all healthy. Strawberry Gushers is definitely starting to flower and the Newberry is showing signs of preflower. My little guy Orange Bubblegum is still growing slowly and no signs of flower yet. The Orange Bubblegum still looks healthy, she just grows really slow. Not showing signs of any deficiencies, or over or under watering, so I think it may just be the plant. Since the other two plants are starting to flower, I top dressed with 1/3 cup Gnarly barley, 1/3 cup Craft Blend from BuildASoil, along with about 2 cups(didn't really measure, just scooped a few handfulls) of BuildAFlower. Also added a handful of bokashi on top of that. I then lightly watered the two top dressed plants, since they both received a full watering yesterday. Still doing some light LST and minor defoliation. 10/26/2022: made avtea today using TeaCo Super tea blend. Gave about 1.75 liters to the Strawberry Gushers and Newberry, since they are both starting their stretch. Gave about 1 liter to the Orange Bubblegum, since it is still the smallest. It seems to be about a week behind the other 2 plants even though they were all germinated and planted on the same days. Also raised the lite slightly, since the bigger plants were getting a little more ppfd than I wanted, but i also inceased the intensity of the light to about 80%. Been increasing by a few percent a day and plan to max it at 100% once the final plant starts to flower. The average ppfd is about 600, which is a DLI of about 40. 10/28/2022: watered about 1.5 liters per plant. This time I added Rootwise Bio-Phos, now that 2 out of the 3 plants are in flower. Also, top dressed the Orange Bubblegum. I snapped a branch on the Newberry when trying to super crop a few of the taller branches. Also noticed the Newberry was looking a little droopy today. Not sure if it was a water issue or if I turned up the light too much. I'll monitor to see how it looks later, now that I watered and raised the light a few more inches. Wanted to have a scrog net in by now, but I'm waiting for some 4 way PVC connectors so I can finish building a frame. Always just tied to the tent poles previous grows, but I wanted to try something new. 10/30/2022: watered 2 liters for the Strawberry Gushers and Newberry and 1.5 liters for the Orange Bubblegum. Added BuildASoil Coconut Powder, along with the Rootwise Bio-Phos and ThermX-70. Installed the scrog net as well. It's a little high right now, but I'm hoping the plants will grow into it. I can cut the PVC pipes shorter if I need to. Avg. VPD:1.1 PPFD: 600 DLI: 40

16 days of slow drying each plant with the environment controlled inside the tent with 2 meters. I have two fans on, pointing at the floor to circulate the air temps - 20 - 23 º humid - 50- 60 %

Flower time! Let's see how fast this fast flowering variety is.

They are looking good. One of them really took off 🚀👍

For LIQUIDS & Nutes ******GREEN BUZZ NUTRIENTS***** organic. Also i’m using their LIVING SOIL CULTURE in powder form! MARSHYDRO ⛺️ has large openings on the sides which is useful for mid section groom room work. 🤩 ☀️ MARSHYDRO FC 3000 LED 300W 💨MARSHYDRO 6” in-line EXTRACTOR with speed-variation knob, comes complete with ducting and carbon filter.

Shes in the fast lane and got the hammer down now. Look at the growth over 2 days once I hit that sweet spot with the nutrients. Geoff has definitely checked off some boxes with this girl, the vigor and structure are on point, she's definitely oozing some strong skunky terpene early on as well.
