NOV 17 (DAY 52): Oooohhhh... I let the plants go too long without watering them. Plant 3 looked so limp and pathetic, I was afraid to touch it. I have got to start setting a reminder to pick the pots up every day to be sure. NOV 18 (DAY 53): Everyone is looking much better now that they have been thoroughly watered. They need to be fed next time I water. NOV 20 (DAY 55): The fan leaves on my comparison plant, which up to now had been light years ahead of the others, are now rapidly yellowing and turning brittle. And Plant 3 is also starting to look lighter yellow green... time for food. I mixed everything as per FF’s feeding schedule (minus the dry ingredients and plus a few other things), adjusted the solution’s pH, and then diluted it to 1500ppm. I’m a little uncertain about what to expect from my comparison plant... so I’m feeding it at least one more time.

Week 5 Veg Report: SCROG Netting, Massive Leafs & Precise Data Mastery! 🌱 Girls Growing Stronger Than Ever! 🌱 This week has been truly epic in the grow room—so much so that it’s time to bring in the SCROG net! With the canopy expanding and the younger ones still working to catch up, the SCROG net will help me achieve that perfect, even canopy. A well-placed SCROG not only ensures better light penetration but also gives the smaller plants a chance to spread out and thrive alongside their bigger sisters. Now, let’s dive deep into the SCROG method. The Screen of Green (SCROG) technique is a grower’s secret weapon for maximizing space, light efficiency, and yields. The concept is simple but powerful—train the plants to grow horizontally along the net, forcing them to expose multiple budding sites instead of just a single cola. This way, the canopy spreads evenly, improving light distribution and air circulation throughout the tent. As the plants grow, I’ll gently weave their branches through the screen, ensuring they fill every square inch of space. The end goal? A sea of buds all basking in equal light! 💪 Huge Leafs Everywhere! 🌿 One thing that’s really catching my eye this week is the size of the leaves—they’re HUGE! Honestly, they’re so big I couldn’t resist a little fun, so I made myself some fashion accessories: leaf earrings and a cap from the Super Sativa Seed Club Green Papaya! 😂 And, of course, I captured the moment. But seriously, large leaves at this stage are a great sign of healthy, robust plants. These “solar panels” are hard at work soaking up all the light, driving photosynthesis, and fueling growth. So, what does it mean when your plants are showing off big, luscious leaves? It’s a clear indication that they’re happy, healthy, and thriving in their environment—big leaves mean lots of energy being produced and stored for future bud growth. Exactly what we want! 💧 Precision Feeding with Aptus Nutrients 💧 This week, I took a deep dive into my Aptus nutrient lineup and shared a video explaining how each product affects the water’s pH and TDS. Using the AMP-3 Precision Meter, I’m getting real-time water readings and keeping everything dialed in perfectly. Let’s break it down: • pH: 5.83 • TDS in solution: 445 ppm • Water temperature: 25.2°C The Aptus products are incredible for balancing nutrients without throwing off the pH or TDS too much. I’m fine-tuning my feedings based on these readings to make sure the girls are getting exactly what they need. The precision I’m able to achieve with the AMP-3 is mind-blowing—I get immediate feedback on pH, temperature, and EC, allowing me to make real-time adjustments and ensure the perfect environment for nutrient uptake. 📊 Environmental Mastery Thanks to TrolMaster 📊 Speaking of control—let’s talk about the TrolMaster system! Between the DSH-2U Humidity Station and all the other sensors, I’ve created the perfect environment for my plants. Here’s where we’re at this week: • Temperature: 26.2°C • RH: 70.6% • CO2 levels: 775 ppm • VPD: 1.0 kPa • PPFD: 423 Thanks to TrolMaster, I can monitor and adjust these metrics in real time, and the best part? I can do it all through the TM+ Pro app, even while I’m lounging in my green papaya leaf hat! 😆 Whether I’m checking the CO2 levels, adjusting the lights, or fine-tuning the humidity, it’s all in my hands with just a tap of my phone. Talk about convenience! 🌱 P.S. – Inline Sensors: Heavy-Duty Precision 🌱 Now, let’s talk about the heavy-duty players in this game—the (PCT-2) Heavy Duty Inline EC/Temp Sensor and the (PPH-2) Heavy Duty Inline pH Sensor. These bad boys are connected directly to the AMP-3 Precision Meter, and they’ve been absolutely crucial in giving me the most accurate readings on my water and nutrient solution. The PCT-2 keeps me informed about the electrical conductivity and temperature of my solution, which is key for monitoring how well my plants are absorbing nutrients. Too high or too low, and we’re asking for trouble, but this sensor ensures I’m always in that perfect range. The PPH-2, on the other hand, is all about maintaining the perfect pH balance. A fluctuating pH can mean nutrient lockout or deficiencies, but thanks to this sensor, I get a constant read on my pH levels, so the plants are always in their sweet spot for optimal nutrient absorption. Together, these inline sensors allow me to run a super-tight ship—every drop of water and nutrient is dialed in to perfection, keeping the plants happy and healthy! Shout Outs! As always, huge thanks to TrolMaster and ThinkGrow LED for the amazing gear, to Aptus Holland for their top-notch nutrients and Pro-Mix for the best soil i have used so far. Big love to the seed banks, the amazing Grow Diaries community, and all my followers—you guys make this journey so much more exciting.

Beautiful pair of haze berries, both phenos #1 and #2 showing strong healthy roots and big leafs, can't wait to flower this ladies out, I Transplanted the plants after 17 days of being planted on February 2nd because the roots were super well developed and I considered that it was the right time to do so. So now they are in their new 11l house.

Fust Buds Originals Sour Diesel 5th week of flowering completed 18th Jan 2020 So that's another week gone by and the sour diesel auto looks pretty tasty to be honest. Not a lot of bulk and there is a tad too much internodal spacing for my liking However the quality is definately there , with every bud glistening with trichomes and emitting a strong Diesel like smell. The other plant (polyploid) isn't doing much really but will add to the final yield I get from this grow. Cheers for stopping by 👍

During the past week a lot has happened.😃 First of all I chose Pheno 1 to stay and I gave Pheno 2 away to my friend. I switched the Bilberry light to Bloom Spectrum, but kept the 18 hours light schedule the reason behind this is that because of the quick (unexpected) vertical growth I am soon planning to re pot and then switch to 12 hours. I don't want to put all that stress on her at the same time. The switch has even more increased the growth. She is going FANTASTIC!!💪 I pruned just twó (one level) of fan leafs to give some light to the lower levels. Normally I don't do this but something compeled me this time. I fed her twice tha past week, both times with the same nutrient proportions. I dont't have to water much as the BAC Lava Soil keeps the moisture very well. I hope she keeps going like this!!

Hello Growmies, The final chapter of this incredible journey has unfolded, and it's time to share the bountiful harvest and reflections on the entire cultivation process. Trimming the plant was a joy, and with gentle fingers, I removed all the large fan leaves. The precision in this process revealed the true beauty of the buds, setting the stage for a smooth harvest. With care and gratitude, the plant was chopped, and the buds were hung to dry. The anticipation for what lies ahead only adds to the sense of accomplishment. The wet weight, excluding fan leaves, stands at an impressive 782 grams. The buds are massive, a testament to the efficacy of the nutrients used, particularly the Power Buds. The name seems apt, as the result is a collection of sticky, dense buds with subtle lemon notes and sweet pungent undertones. In the final moments, the plant unveiled some delightful purple hues. While I wish I could have allowed them to intensify further, it's a reminder that each grow is a learning experience. In hindsight, a slightly longer fading period would have accentuated those beautiful colors. We live and learn, and that's the essence of this journey. A heartfelt thank you to Plagron and Zamnesia for hosting this amazing contest. The quality of the products and the support throughout the journey have been invaluable. As this chapter concludes, I'm left with a sense of fulfillment and gratitude for the collective experience we've shared. The plant's growth, from seed to harvest, has been a testament to the art and science of cultivation. Feel free to check out my other adventures in my bigger environments, until then...happy growing! Stay Lifted Salokin

They’re looking extremely healthy..gave em their first nute feed with the last watering seem to be doing fairly well..fimmed the GG and LST. Did not touch the unkown as it looks smaller to be the same age. Running GHE base line with few extra supplements. ****UPDATE**** Both are LST’d..might rethink the way I tie them. Going for a “coil” type look, we’ll see though. They’re looking great! Hoping for females!

Всем тем, кто следит за мной здоровья и удачи. Наступило время вновь обновить дневник легендарного «AK-47» от «Serious seeds». Уже четвёртая неделя от прорастания семечек. Прогресс очевиден. Но к сожалению, одно из растений показывает болезнь. Судя по всему, его корни немного пострадали при пересадке и так как оно не успело восстановиться я ему дал такой же состав раствора, как и другим растениям, после чего он начал показывать передозировку удобрениями, его листья пожелтели и начали слегка закручиваться, боковые отростки практически не развивались за это время, я был вынуждает отрезать несколько пар нижних отмерших листьев. Так же я пролил больное растение чистой водой с пониженным P.h и замерил выход раствора из горшка, и он показал повышенные P.h и повышенное PPM. После чего я я продолжил промывать субстрат растения чистой водой с пониженным P.h, пока его значения не снизились до 6.2P.h. и 850ppm, а также я не стал прикрывать в горшке субстрат, чтоб лишняя влага смогла испаряться из горшка. У здоровых растений я обрезал большие листья, чтоб развивались боковые ветви, так как я буду подготавливать эти растения к клонированию, так же как и остальные два штамма которые стоят в этой палатке.

"Regardless of experience, all growers aim to achieve the same results"... I read that in a grow magazine recently. At first I thought yeah a big huge yield, right? Well ya, and no. The best quality? Of course but I think there is more. Always learning something new. Doing just a bit better than the last time. It's been a good week and I hope the progress continues. I'm guessing an 10-11 week flower...keep on rockin.

Day 56. Plants look good today almost ready to flip into flower, but I have a vacation this weekend so they will have to wait. Day 59 Back from vacation and the plants look great! Today is their first day at 12/12 light schedule. Tured the Growers Choice ROI-720 led up to 50% and I raised it to maintain 24" from canopy. I did some light defoliation around the base of the plants. I watered Plants B and D today. Day 60 Couldn't get humidity to drop below 75% so I got a dehumidifier and dropped it to 65%. Day 61 Plants look good. I'll try to water plants A and C tomorrow morning Day 62 Watered Plants A and C this morning. Did some more defoliation and bent some more tops down under the net. Plants look good besides plant D had 1 leaf that was completely wilted and dead. The rest of the plant appears fine.

A big hello to all the cannabis growing gardeners...and all the other visitors that came across my grow journal. Not much happening this week the one thing i did this week was transplanting the little rockwool cubes to bigger rockwool cubes. The seedlings will probably wait another week or two for the transplant in to the RDWC system. You can acquire Moby Dick seeds from Seeds Mafia here: https://seedsmafia.com/en/feminized-cannabis-seeds/moby-dick-feminized.html This whole grow's main sponsor is Spider Farmer and as such I added a video of unpacking one of the parcels I got from SF. Here are the links for people interested in the Spider Farmer products that are presented in the video: https://cutt.ly/gwjZIk9r A big thank you to Jessie and the whole Spider Farmer crew for supporting my effort to grow the best cannabis I can. Thank you for your visit, please leave a like and hope to see you beck here in about a week.
