growing this strain was super easy, but for some reason i had 5 seeds and i wanted to germinate another 2 and i followed the germination process 420 fast buds has on the web and unfortunately from 5 seeds just 1 germinated. which you can see in this diary. the buds are really fat and they smell super fruity and they get you really high lol

Mrs B aka Bruce Banner #3 from Original sensible seeds is a different plant for me, in a good way of course. Beautiful thin sativa leaves and from the right angle looks like a picture of the tropics. The Fat early leaves on their way out over shadowed by smaller leaves above working on the Bud sites. A traditional super crop because she was starting to encroach on her girl scout cookie cousins space. Of course un fazed by the whole thing. I was once worried about her leaves touching the £1 emergency blanket I use as light reflection in the grow cupboard but has never been an issue its way too thin to hold anyway near enough heat to ever be an issue so the shaping also come somewhat naturally. shes under a selection of home standard LED bulbs around 10w, random blasts of UVB from a reptile light (I think helps growing with a slight slowing of the auto influence. My own thoughts from previous experiments only.) the other lights remain on 24 hours with a few 5 min breaks in the timer to cool the bulbs down a touch. I of course talk to her/them on a regular basis which has some scientific backing somewhere showing benefit for both of us.

1/5 - Day 51 / Day 23 flower - Feeding Day Pots were mostly dry on this day, last time they were fed was a little over a week ago on day 43 (12/28). I've done two small waterings since last feed, about a half gallon of water for each of my 5 gallons and about 8oz of water for my bonsais. My plants are drying out within about 48 hours of each small watering. For today's feeding I went to full strength on my nutes. My solution consisted of: - 1 gallon distilled water - 3ml CalMag - 3 tsp of FF Big Bloom (full dose)) - 2 tsp of FF Tiger Bloom (full dose) - pH: 6.9 - TDS: 342ppm - EC: .7 I gave each of my 5 gallons about a half gallon of the fertigated water each which wasn't enough to produce runoff. I gave them each about another 1/4 gallon distilled water to generate enough runoff to test. I tested the runoff of my Z52 which gave me readings of: - pH: 6.3 -TDS: 1600ppm -EC: 3.2 I gave about 12oz of fertigated water to each of my bonsais. My ZB2 runoff posted readings of: - pH: 7.2 - TDS: 594ppm - EC: 1.2 My TDS readings are definitely low compared to the FF Soil Feeding Schedule. The suggested readings for week 7 are an EC of 2.8 - 3.0 and 1960-2100ppm. Not stressing too much over the reading as the girls are looking healthy and happy. Will add another feeding in between waterings if I start to see any nutrient deficiencies but I don't see any cause to do so at the moment. As you can see from the picture on 1/3, the super cropping I did on 1/2 didn't hurt my girls one bit. By the following day, the tops were already bending back toward the lights. This was a big relief. **************************************************** 1/7 - Day 53 / Day 25 Flower Light watering in the morning today using pH'd dechlorinated tap water w/ 4ml of cal mag. Gave about about a 1/4 gallon to each for my 5 gallons and another 8oz each for my bonsais. **************************************************** 1/8 - Day 54 / Day 26 Flower Noticing signs of nutrient issue on the Z51. Surprisingly, no signs of nutrient issues on the Z52 despite using the same solution and roughly the same amount of water during the feeding day on 1/5. Decided to do a heavier watering tonight, using about 3/4 gallon of pH'd dechlorinated tap water. Hoping that dilutes the soil a little bit and pushes the salts toward the bottom. **************************************************** 1/9 - Day 55 / Day 27 Flower Nutrient issues did not appear to get any worse overnight so that is encouraging. Did some minor defoliation on my 5 gallons this morning to remove any of the smaller branches on the lower 3rd of the plant. Haven't completely removed any branches that are below the trellis. Will start pruning more regularly every other day so I don't shock the plants too much.

Getting closer to harvest

Update coming.

Day 36 Flower (Day 78) Today is the first day of week six of flower and on this glorious day, I went to war against the fungus gnats. By war, I mean watering each girl with 5 million Nematodes in 3 liters of pH 6.5 water. That should hopefully do the trick and get rid of the annoying little shits. I also experimented a bit more with bud photography and this time I used an LED ring flash. The next step is to shoot during the dark period so I don't get any supplemental light from the grow lights. That was pretty much it today as it is mostly just coasting along at this point in the grow. Day 37 Flower (Day 79) The left girl got pampered with a new light today. Let's see if those extra photons can help her fatten up. She also got a CO2 bag to help her to soak up all those juicy photons. The right girl on the other hand just got her daily watering. Today with 3 liters at pH 6.6. Day 38 Flower (Day 80) All I did today was to give the right girl 3 liters of pH 6.5 water and started brewing some compost tea to feed tomorrow. I used a simple recipe this time with just some worm castings and molasses to increase the microbial activity, as well as a bit of neem meal for some additional nutrition but also to help against pests. The fungus gnats in the tents are almost gone. The nematodes took care of the gnat larvae and the yellow sticky traps have been catching the adults. Day 39 Flower (Day 81) Super chill day. I just gave each girl 3 liters of compost tea at pH 6.2. Done. Day 40 Flower (Day 82) I gave 3 liters of pH 6.5 water to the right girl and supported some of her branches as they're getting heavy with buds. Boom! Day 41 Flower (Day 83) Today I gave each girl 3 liters of pH 6.5 water. The gnats look to be defeated for now. I can't see any in the tents and the yellow sticky traps are empty. Day 42 Flower (Day 84) The last day of the sixth week of flower and all is going great in the tents. The heatwave we were having went away, which kind of sucks on a personal and social level, but it's great for the girls as the tents were swelteringly hot. The left girl is 103 cm tall and didn't grow anything this week. She has started to fatten up a bit now since I installed a more powerful light, but she is still lagging far behind the right girl. I'm interested to see if she is only lagging behind in time and will fatten up eventually, or if her ordeal has stunted her flowers, resulting in a bunch of larf. Time will tell. Either way, it will be a learning experience. The right girl also didn't grow vertically this week (thankfully!). Her 123 cm is tall enough to be dangerously close to the lights. She is fattening up nicely but still some time to go before she is done. I haven't checked any trichomes yet but should probably start checking next week. Today was another chill late-flower day, I just gave the left girl 2 liters of pH 6.7 water, and the right got 3 liters at pH 6.5.

Nov. 13 - Week 6 begins. Nov. 17 - It continues to do better than I had thought it would, but this morning it was wilting 😬 I can't keep letting that happen.

Atrasados con el seguimiento debido a las vacaciones pero aquí regresamos!! Proximamente 6 comienzan su flora en exterior y 2 en interior

Day 70 - She grew 4cm this week. Her flowers are not as developed as any of her tent mates, looks like she's going to take her time flowering. That's ok. I'm happy to wait 😀

💙 Project Blue Tent – Week 5 Blue Waffle F1 – Pheno B (Folder 13B) Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of Project Blue Tent. For anyone discovering these diaries for the first time, this project follows four individual Blue Waffle F1 plants from Zamnesia from seed to harvest. Every plant grows inside the exact same environment, under the same lighting, receives the same nutrition and follows the same schedule. The only variable... The genetics. Watching each phenotype develop its own personality while removing as many environmental variables as possible is exactly what makes this project so fascinating. Today we're checking in with Plant B. 🌱 Week Five – Finding Her Rhythm If last week was about recovery after topping, this week was all about momentum. Plant B responded beautifully to the cut, quickly redirecting her energy into the new leading shoots while the lower branches accelerated their own growth. She's still carrying that compact structure I mentioned previously, but she's beginning to spread out much more naturally now. The canopy is becoming wider, the internodal spacing remains wonderfully tight, and every branch seems determined to compete for the top. One thing that continues to impress me is how symmetrical she is becoming. She almost looks like she planned every branch herself. The stem has thickened considerably over the past week, giving me confidence that she'll comfortably support the heavy flowers later in the grow. 🌡️ Blue Tent Environment Consistency continues to be the biggest priority inside the Blue Tent. This week's average conditions were: • 🌡️ Day Temperature: 30°C • 🌙 Night Temperature: 25°C • 💧 Relative Humidity: 58% • ⚗️ pH: 5.8 • ⚡ EC: 1.92 mS/cm • 💨 CO₂: 450 ppm • 💡 Light Schedule: 18/6 • 💧 Irrigation: 1.2 litres per plant per day Although daytime temperatures climbed slightly this week, the plants continued growing vigorously with no signs of stress, demonstrating just how resilient healthy plants become when the root zone remains stable. 🥥 Feeding & Irrigation One of the biggest differences between this project and my previous organic soil grows is the irrigation strategy. Because coco doesn't store nutrients the same way soil does, the plants are fed little and often rather than receiving larger irrigations every few days. Each plant now receives approximately 1.2 litres of nutrient solution every day through the automatic Mars Hydro drip irrigation system. A drip irrigation system slowly delivers nutrient solution directly onto the growing medium through small emitters positioned at each plant. Rather than watering by hand, every irrigation is delivered evenly and consistently, ensuring every plant receives exactly the same amount. Once the nutrient solution has travelled through the coco, the excess runoff drains away through the automatic drainage system beneath each grow bag. This is just as important as the irrigation itself. Removing runoff prevents old nutrient solution from accumulating around the roots, helping maintain a healthier and more stable root environment while dramatically reducing the daily workload. As someone who has spent years hand-watering plants, I genuinely appreciate how much time this system saves while improving consistency at the same time. The current feeding schedule is: • Plagron Hydro A — 1.9 ml/L • Plagron Hydro B — 1.9 ml/L • Plagron Hydro Roots — 1 ml/L The slight increase from last week continues producing exactly the response I was hoping for, with richer colour and strong, healthy new growth. 🕸️ Preparing the SCROG This week also marked another exciting milestone. The SCROG net officially entered the grow. SCROG stands for Screen Of Green. Rather than allowing each branch to grow vertically on its own, a horizontal net is placed above the canopy. As branches grow through the openings they're gently guided sideways, encouraging the plant to spread across the entire growing area. Instead of producing one dominant cola, the plant develops dozens of equally exposed flowering sites. The result is a flatter canopy, more efficient light distribution and, hopefully, a much larger overall harvest. At this stage the net isn't there to hold flowers. It's there to guide the architecture of the plant. Over the coming weeks I'll continue weaving each branch through the net one square at a time, allowing the canopy to fill naturally before flowering begins. Watching this process unfold is honestly one of my favourite parts of growing. 🌿 Blue Waffle F1 – Plant B Plant B continues living up to the personality she's been developing since the beginning. Calm. Balanced. Methodical. She isn't trying to be the tallest plant in the tent.Instead she's quietly building an incredibly organised structure that should become a fantastic SCROG candidate over the next few weeks. Sometimes the plants that grow the slowest early on end up delivering the biggest surprises later. I'm very curious to see whether she's one of them. 👀 Looking Ahead Next week should be all about training. With the SCROG now installed and both new leaders growing strongly after topping, the real canopy shaping begins. From here onwards the objective changes completely. We're no longer trying to grow taller plants. We're trying to grow wider ones. Every branch will now be guided with one simple goal... To create an even canopy capable of making the absolute most of every photon produced by the Zamnesia Phytonaut LED. The adventure is becoming even more exciting. 💙 Thank You A huge thank you goes to Zamnesia for making Project Blue Tent possible, from these incredible Blue Waffle F1 genetics to the complete ecosystem surrounding this grow. A heartfelt thank you to Plagron for providing the Premium Coco Growbags together with the Hydro nutrient line that continues making my transition into coco both enjoyable and educational. A special thank you to Mars Hydro for the automatic drip irrigation and drainage system that has become an essential part of this project. Although this isn't a sponsored product, it's one of those pieces of equipment that simply works. It has brought consistency, cleanliness and peace of mind to the grow room while allowing me to spend more time with the plants and less time managing runoff. Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving growers from all around the world a place to document their journeys, learn from one another and build such an incredible community. And finally... Thank you to every single person reading these updates. Whether you've been here since the first seed cracked, recently discovered Project Blue Tent, leave comments every week, quietly follow along, or simply enjoy the photographs, every visit, every conversation, every question and every word of encouragement helps make this journey even more rewarding. I hope you're all having an amazing week, and I can't wait to share the next chapter of this adventure with you. Until then... Growers Love, happy growing, and I'll see you all next week. 🌱💙

This week the amnesia trance has come along fine, she is as low as i can get her and has probably finished stretching. All 4 strains in the tent are quite close in development still. Notes Day 50 manually feed this weeks nutes Day 51 nothing Day 52 nothing Day 53 autofeed water. Day 54 nothing Day 55 autofeed this weeks nutes Day 56 big defoliation. 530 ppfd, 34.4 DLi. Back in a week Take it easy.

I think they are closer to done than I previously thought. All clear on trichomes though. Two more weeks?

when flushing i accidentally ripped a little bud of one side stem. i kept and dried it about 4 days... it smells like cookies and already has some strong medical effects. i am pretty surprised, how well this one turned out. now i can't wait to try the clean, flushed, cured flowers 💚

These girls are getting ready for harvest.

White Widow is swelling the peaks it was finally a little slow maybe but they are swelling very well. The trunk is beautiful thick and resistant, on the flowers the first trichomes are seen, the plant is finally coming.

DAY 11 !! can someone let me know if my plants are looking healthy ? It’s my first time so I’m trying not to fu** up... and should I be worried that some of them already have purple stems? They have been purple for at least 4-5 days and nothing else looks wrong with them?

Now that I got the environment stable, it's nice to see her bud sites popping up. Did a bit more LST on her and hopefully when Nicky (the photoperiod) is done, I can boost the lights to 18 hours a day.

Tout se passe bien pour elle, aucune carence en vue, peut-être un petit excès d'azote. Le stretch semble terminé, il ne reste plus qu'à la laissé gonfler 💪 Prochain arrosage à l'eau clair ph ajusté.
