Fun grow, treated each plant with a different growing techniques - Fim, Top, Lst, super-cropping, etc. Surprised on yield using basic $130.00 Bestva. Dry weight over 1/3 of a pound. They hung for 5 days. I put time into flushing and Trichome viewing, willing to sacrifice THC content for a more energetic medicine. I nailed the harvest based off of partly/mostly cloudy trichs(pic above). The weed is gas, top-shelve, better than the 21.5% thca GC I purchase through dispensary. Very, Very pleased with results. Biggest mistakes made on this grow: 1) 2 initial pots too small for 10 week veg requiring a tricky late veg transplant. 2) not using cal/mag in mid Veg. 3) allowing humidity to drop too low while drying buds in tent - final product is a little brittle.

Week 10 Update – Sticky Broccoli Auto Late Flower / Staggered Harvest Begins This week marked the start of harvest. One plant had to come down early due to size and structural issues, but overall quality is still looking strong. The remaining plants are being staggered for harvest to dial in peak ripeness. ⸻ Drying / Post-Harvest Note • One harvested plant nearly filled the Cannatrol Cool Cure C • Space is now a real concern for the remaining harvest • May need to stagger loads or get creative with drying strategy ⸻ Lighting & Canopy Management • Installed under-canopy lighting (3/25) • ~24W per light • Producing 200–300 PPFD under canopy • Helps push lower bud development late into flower • Likely contributed to improved lower-site density ⸻ Feeding Strategy Shift • Fully transitioned to hand feeding • Removed emitters to prevent overwatering and improve control • Beginning staggered flush approach: • 2 plants switched to plain RO water • Final plant continues light feeding before final flush ⸻ Feeding Log 3/26 – Standard Feed • 4 gallons mixed, ~2.5 gallons used • ~5% runoff per plant • 5.8 pH Per gallon: • 0.5ml Silicium Bloom • 2ml MagCal • 4ml Green Sensation • 2ml Cocos A • 8ml Cocos B • 4ml Pure Zym ⸻ 3/27 – Accidental Heavy Feed (Adjusted) • Mixed wrong schedule, used ~50% • 900 ppm / 5.8 pH Per gallon: • 0.5ml Silicium Bloom • 2ml MagCal • 4ml Green Sensation • 3ml Cocos A • 12ml Cocos B • 4ml Pure Zym ⸻ 3/28 – No Feed ⸻ 3/30 – Light Feed / Transition Phase • Fed at lights on (~2:30 AM) • ~5% runoff • 430 ppm / 6.0 pH Per gallon: • 0.5ml Silicium Bloom • 2ml MagCal • 4ml Green Sensation • 2ml Cocos A • 8ml Cocos B • 4ml Pure Zym ⸻ Trichome & Ripeness Check • Majority: cloudy dominant • Some amber beginning to show • Small percentage still clear • Right in the harvest window depending on desired effect ⸻ Observations • Bud weight is seriously stacking – causing structural issues • Under-canopy lighting seems to be helping lower development • Plants are finishing strong with good resin coverage • Staggered harvest should help maximize overall quality ⸻ Next Steps • Chop 2 plants this weekend • Let final plant push another week for increased amber • Monitor Cannatrol capacity and drying timing • Continue RO water on finishing plants

They are slowly entering the veggie phase 😍 So far only tap water with root juice. Since today we are in the vegi phase and the fertilization will start next week. Today I would like to tell you something about my new “toy” (Ecowitt GW1200 +WH51). I read something in the forum about a soil moisture sensor that is IoT capable. I was curious and of course had to buy it... 😄 Works really surprisingly well, I tested it beforehand with a small test setup. Up to 8 sensors can be connected to the gateway and theoretically home automation would also be possible. What I particularly like: Battery status display History with graph Freely adjustable alarms Access via internet and browser and of course app Plugs to cover the LEDs This is not intended as advertising, but I thought I'd explain in detail before people ask what these parts are

Still having humidity issues it goes up to about 60 at night returned the last dehumidifier ordered another one I’m going try to place it outside the tent to see if that would work if not I’m going to try placing it inside and hang it in the tent. That’s kind of the only issues I’m having Amnesia haze #1 still having some type of issues but I’m going let it ride out I’ve gotten better with PHing the water got a better PH meter also the acinfinity self watering pots are dope I recommend if you’re want a easy automated grow filled them up yesterday Amnesia haze #2 is having a big stretch it seems a lil behind the other haze and she’s stretching as well and after the defoliation she grew more fan leaves I doubt I’ll defoliate her again

The plants are ready to be chopped and hung for 3-5 days. I removed all the fans leaves and left them all branches on the main stem. The ladies smell so strong I can wait to see how they turn out when they are dried and cured. 1) I plan to hang them for 3-5 days @ 71 f and 50-55 RH, 2) Do a final tight trim 3) Than I will move them to jars and cure for 2-3 weeks I will update the diary with harvest pictures & weight before I move them to the jars for curing. I think the seeds might have got mixed up when packing because these three plants were all supposed to be the same and you can clearly tell from the pictures that they are not.

The first week of flowering is here, and things are finally looking much better! Both plants have recovered well and are now growing much healthier.🌱 #1 has already started stretching significantly, really picking up speed. It’s exciting to see how quickly it’s developing! Meanwhile. #2 spent about half the week still in vegetation, but towards the end, I finally spotted the first signs of flowering. Now that both are officially in bloom, I’m looking forward to seeing how they continue to develop over the next weeks. On to the next phase! 😊

Really hot week with some showers early in the week, but chucking along. Fed with bloom once and a compost tea. 1-1.5 gal of water daily. Smelling some wonderful tropical smells. Cant wait to smoke it and figure out what it is.

Week 2 —— Wednesday: Day 8 —- Started blues main nutrient feeding. She seem to be loving life at the moment. Getting bigger by the day. Run off:30% Run off ph: 6.1 Run off EC 2.4 I believe the run off ec is so high is because the coco mix I used is pre blended with charge. The reason I think this is today feed was the highest EC I’ve done and that was 1.5 EC. —- Day 9 —- Increased her base nutrients by .5ml/l it added an extra 0.3 ec that yesterday feed, but the sound of the medium Snap crackle and popping it quite relaxing. Is this the zen water at work? Final EC: 1.8 Run Off: 27% Run Off PH: 6.0 Run Off EC: Still way over what it mean to be but it’s going down, I still believe it’s too do with Ecothrive Charge being in the coco already. Blue looking very healthy even tho the high ec run off. —- Day 10 —- Feed: 900ml PH: 5.8 EC: 2.0 Run Off: 275ml Run Off %: 27 NOTES: Looking healthy as usual. —- Day 11 — Feed: 900ml PH: 5.7 EC: 1.8 - Run Off Amount: 220ml %: 24 Ph 6.4 Notes: All is well in the garden this morning. Still trying to bring the run off ph down to 5.8 during veg. Still the ec of the run off is still stupid, read somewhere re top dress on week 4, which I’m not as not using charge. So touchwood it would of sorted itself out. Blue look like she enjoying the feed mind. —- Day 12 —- Just the same as yesterday just bigger. Today going to start to research how to lst etc and to see if can find out what EC charge is at. —- Day 13 — Feed: 1l PH: 5.7 EC: 2.0 Note: Thought today was the best time to start to use my base nutrients at full dose. Not much new to report but starting to enjoy waking up just to see how much she has grow. She has started to lean one side so I have proped her up with a plant label stick. —- Day 14 — Water: 2L PH: 5.8 EC: 2.0 Notes: Seem to be enjoying the nutrients. She looks very healthy. Roll of week 3 as think maybe to start of her lst training

Giving Alien Vs Triangle a second try after my first started showing signs of herming (bananas). Planted the seed directly in soil and she sprouted in 5 days. I'm not going to do HST bending as I did with the first one. I know I accidentally went overboard with HST the first time and that most likely caused her to herm out. I want to get her to harvest as quickly as possible so just going to do some light defoliation and a FIM pinch on this girl. The first AVT smelled insanely good when I chopped her, I'm looking forward to bringing this one to a proper harvest. 👍 My Perpetual Harvest strategy…. Originally my plan was to start 2 seeds each month, but had some seeds from one breeder that did not germinate early in my rotation. Ultimately, this caused single seeds to pop and messed up my 2 at a time plans. But, that seemed to work out OK, because now I think starting one seed every 3 weeks is a better strategy. This should provide me with 4-5 plants at a time, instead of 6. However… Since I need to shut down over the summer because my tent is currently in the attic, I’m starting 2-3 seeds at at time for the last couple of rounds. Plants get fed once weekly on weekends. Seedlings get water only. Plants in vegetation get water and Recharge. Flowering plants get water, Recharge or Big Bloom (Fox Farm). Feeding is done using 2 gallon watering can. Any additional waterings during the week are given on an as needed basis per plant. I lift the plants to help determine which plants are more dry (lighter) and provide water any plants via water bottles and watering spikes. I give each pot a quarter turn every day in an effort to make sure the plants get equal lighting from all sides. I rotate the plant in place by turning the pot 90 degrees (I am not rearranging the layout of the plants in the tent on a daily basis). The soil is an ‘organic super soil’ I mixed myself using organic top soil, organic potting soil, organic compost, organic peat moss, organic perlite, organic vermiculite, lime, epsom salt, expanded clay pellets and Jobe’s organic fast start. I am also recycling my soil and water with Recharge when using recycled soil. For plant training I have tried a variety of things, but my plans now are to do LST bending only, no HST anymore. I may decide to go back to HST again in the future, but I’m curious to compare LST training only to see how that goes. Around week 3 I'll do a FIM pinch once there are 4-5 nodes established. And some defoliation around the 3rd week of flowering. I have been doing HST bending and having good results, but think the HST may be causing the plants to take longer to harvest. I hope FIM/defoliation only will help increase harvests while getting me to harvest sooner. Setup: 1- Grow Tent 24”x48”x72” 2- Viparspectra 300W LED’s (1-V300 & 1-R300) 1- Hanging 100w CFL (26w actual) 1- Carbon Filter w/ 190cfm Fan & 4” ducts 1- 6” clip-on fan 1- 700w electric heater - oil filled radiator (in front of air intake behind tent)

Well another week of growth and progression. Havent had to do anything but water this little beauty. Keeping in kind I'm watering with a ph of 6.5 all the time I'm adding nothing else but the bio bloom and grow and that's it. IT'S really just self automated growing actually much easier than measuring out your nutes week by week so much so you get bored cause you have more free time to just water and wait. But anyways she stepped out of pre- flower this week hope to see some large stacking happen soon live to see the bud formation growing its awsome so far so good havent had a issue to write about so batmans happy all round

Weak smell is finally starting to develop and it is amazing. Also starting LST this week on all four plants. I need help with the Royal Jack. The plant that started out so well is really struggling and I have no idea why. Any tips are more than welcome. Also I'm having a bit of a pest situation. Ive looked under the leaves and around the plant but was unable to find anything that could be capable of doing this damage. Does anyone have any advice? Thanks in advance
