4/15/25 Things are progressing nicely. Some plants dont seem to be doing too much but 3 of them or so that are really standing out. Im curious if some of these are going to be longer flowering time than anticipated with the very obvious sativa dominant plants.

This is my first hydro grow and first time with clones. I have a few semi successful outdoor grows under my belt but the weather (hot AF) and caterpillar apocalypse (lost a beast of a plant and the tops of most others) last year are forcing me inside. Reservoir is an hdx 27 gallon tote with 15 gallons of actual water capacity about 1/4” under net pots. Attached to 1/4 hp active aqua chiller (overkill but got a deal and am in so cal; last years consistent 100+ temps ravaged my outdoor grow and can even make indoor temp regulation difficult) with two 5” and one 4” air stones in main res and one 4” in a 5 gallon top off res (not part of the system until/if I need it) attached to two 15L/minute active aqua air pumps. I wanted to have a bit of a barrier between the ambient temps inside the tent (rest of the room is a/c controlled) and the actual reservoir so I built a base to set the tent sans bottom putting the top of the res at the floor of the tent. This also raises the reservoir off the ground and hoping it will save some back aches once scrog comes into play. This also frees up 16” of vertical space inside tent and although I intend to scrog it should help as a buffer with temps and I won’t have to worry about light distance since plants are at floor level. To keep as much unnecessary heat out of the 4x2 tent the spider farmer light ballast was removed and relocated to outside the tent which I’m glad because during testing the ballast and light are each producing 120 degrees. Half of that is outside the tent allowing the temps inside the tent to stay about around when room temp is about 78 (a/c off but weather is fluctuating) with a small fan at base level and a 6” clip on fan for higher up. Reservoir will be 66-68 at all times thanks to the chiller. For ph management I am going to be using a torus hydro perfect ph (35 gallon). I’m hoping their claims aren’t just hype because they say it removes H+ and OH- ions to allow the ph to maintain 5.8 - 6.2 ph (without any additional buffers). This small fluctuation allows all nutrients to be taken in while a stagnant ph will prevent certain nutrient uptake hence a more complete usage. These are claims among others they made, let’s see if the science is legit. Unfortunately this being my first hydro grow I have no standard to base this off, but if I don’t have to worry about my ph that’s one less worry. Nutrients will be GH flora trio and cal-mag plus hydroguard. Not sure about additional additives, want to keep it pretty basic but suggestions for this nute/strain combo would be appreciated. I was intending on growing wedding cake or venom og but cake was sold out and venom didn’t look great so I ended up coming home with two gelato clones from universal nurseries. I’ve always liked this strain but wanted the cake because I’ve read it’s highly resilient. What I was not expecting was that these would be rooted in neoprene. I’m new to hydro and aside from the research and reading throughout my grows I usually overlooked neoprene. I guess it could be better than the rock wool as it shouldn’t leach and mess with ph? They are surrounded by hydroton and will be hand watered until roots make it to water. Update day 6: I went against my better judgment and initially painted my lid for light leakage. Ended up dumping my entire reservoir two days in because it was full of paint chips (even though it was formulated for plastic it still chipped off in high volume). Used a drill pump from HD, worked well as the intake is a 1/4” pvc tube I could suck up the paint chips and the water, but DO NOT USE to transfer anything but waste water as the output contained grease from the pump! Got a new lid and will just be using panda film for light blockage. Added a small humidifier because rh was in the 30-40 range, now temps and rh are consistently 70 degrees and about 65%. Nutes are 1/4 strength except calimag due likely to stoned math... Plants don’t seem to be minding so I’m not trying to sweat it much. Slight upward drift in ppm and ec as water is taken in or evaporates and ph is slowly swinging in the range torus hydro said it would so that is a success as I have not used any buffers. They claim it is more effective when it can directly interact with a root mass so it seems promising. New growth sprouting all over but no roots have made it out of the net pots. I went with 6” hoping roots will branch laterally exposing move root mass to the air gap once developed. Started noticing slight yellowing of leaves day 4 and some drooping (due to low rh as they perked up after adding humidifier) so I went from 50ml top feed daily to 100ml, also turned light down to 15% and everyone is happy.

DE In der vierten Blütewoche verdichten sich die Strukturen beider Last Dance-Phänotypen weiter. Der erste Phänotyp hat seinen Stretch nahezu abgeschlossen und legt nun deutlich an Blütenmasse zu. Die Hauptcolas sind fest definiert und beginnen sich mit einer feinen Harzschicht zu überziehen. Das Aroma wird noch dominanter – sehr schwer, gassig und durchdringend, mit einem kräftigen Funk. Der zweite Phänotyp bleibt kompakter, zeigt aber eine sehr gleichmäßige Blütenausbildung über alle Seitentriebe hinweg. Die Buds setzen zunehmend Kristalle an und wirken schon jetzt frostig. Sein Duft entwickelt sich klar in Richtung süß-fruchtiger Cocktailnoten, die immer intensiver und komplexer werden. Insgesamt präsentieren beide Pflanzen in Woche vier eine starke Blütenentwicklung mit ersten sichtbaren Harztrichomen, stabiler Struktur und einem weiter ausreifenden, charakteristischen Terpenprofil. EN In the fourth week of flowering, both Last Dance phenotypes continue to build density and structure. The first phenotype has nearly finished stretching and is now focusing on bud mass. The main colas are firmly established and starting to glisten with a fine layer of resin. Its aroma grows even heavier – strongly gassy, pungent, and deeply funky. The second phenotype remains compact but shows very uniform bud formation across all side branches. The flowers are noticeably frosty already, as trichomes begin to cover the sites. Its scent develops further towards a sweet, fruity cocktail profile that is becoming more intense and layered. Overall, both plants show strong flower development in week four, with the first visible resin production, solid structure, and increasingly mature terpene expression.

*02/19 update - Running 18/6 till harvest - She bulked up heavy during week 7 (Week 3 flower) - Heavy Flower Fuel feedings with cal-mag every other feeding - light Defo*

Week 1 flowering for the Motorbreath from super sativa seeds club. All good so far, we gave organic nutrients and some extra calmag with amino and some silica. We also continue with master root. Looking nice and green. Small little buds are starting to appear 🤗

Glad I kept a record of my first grow. I bought the clones on a whim to observe their growth cycle. Enter free time. Significantly less bud than I thought but I did have way more time vegetating than flowering... forced to trigger it early.

👹 Monster Marker – Sweet Seeds Absolutely crazy strain! 😎🔥 The terpenes are super berry-like and sweet 🍇 – smells amazing already. The bud structure is starting to show some foxtailing, with very short internodal spacing 🌿💪. I’m really curious to see if the colas will grow completely together by the end of flowering 👀✨ Follow me here and on Instagram: @DendeGrow to stay updated – I share more grow tips, tricks, and behind-the-scenes content over there 🌱📸 --- 👹 Monster Marker – Sweet Seeds Absolut krank, diese Sorte! 😎🔥 Die Terpene sind super beerig und lecker 🍇 – der Geruch ist jetzt schon der Hammer. Die Budstruktur zeigt bereits Foxtailing, mit sehr kurzen Internodien-Abständen 🌿💪. Ich bin gespannt, ob sich die Colas am Ende komplett miteinander verbinden 👀✨ Folgt mir hier und auf Instagram: @DendeGrow, um nichts zu verpassen – dort gibt’s noch mehr Tipps, Tricks und Einblicke rund ums Growen 🌱📸

DAY63 WEEK9 = Impatiently waiting till harvest time 😘 Beautiful to enjoy the plants ripening and finishing 😍😍😍 Congrats to BIOTABS, because their tablest are really superb 🙏 I'm super satisfied 😁😁😁 Wedding Gelato, Triple G, and Cookies Gelato are completely ripe.👍😃 All their buds are rockhard 💪😖 👉 Cookies Gelato have become completely purple with beautiful piled buds and orange pistils, and looks delicious. Smells of berries and 😵 👉 Wedding Gelato has round buds (easy to trim) with mixed colors : gold, brass, brown, yellow, red and green colors with orange pistils 😊 Fine and accessible smell, pleasant and no overbearing 😄 🙏 👉 Triple G will be the hardest to trim, because of her quirky shaped buds. She has big internodes and big buds scattered across her tall sturdy stalks. Beautiful buds, a pleasure for the eyes. Her smell is pungent, sometimes narcotic even. She will get you stoned in no time 😋 👉 Liberty Haze could have another week. But she lacks some nitrogen; watch her leaves turn yellow, and make her taste sooo soft 👻 She hasn't any purple or red colors, only green and yellow. Her buds are leafy, not that firm, but volumineus. She's soo sweet, with hints of lime. 😘 I defoliated the plants in week 3 because I had to treat the plants against spider mites. Because of this, the plants had fewer leaves, the light could penetrate much deeper and now the lower buds are ripen as well 🙏. I will continue to apply this technique in the future. 👍👍👍 These will be the last pictures before harvesting 😍

Hello all friends! Last week I disturbed my girls for the last time. did a very hard defoliation. also cleared of everything superfluous that was below the skrog. Overall, both plants are doing great. I think that the harvest should be excellent and high quality! Now all that's left is to wait!! @Zammi_official what can you say abouth this Double Gorillas?😜

more later 3rd Apr, today is day of two Amnesias - its time. they are on peak trichoms are milky 10% amber. Zkittles is on grotek final flush strawberry I trying if it change her smell and she is good now, but I fed her week ago with rocket fuel some fertilizers for peppers (11-6-8) coz im was out with bloom fertilizer, Amnesia 3 get this feed too but little bit improvemed with bio grow and rest of biobloom, yesterday I bought Powder Feeding PK booster/mineral and thats should be good. More later after some smoke :D

Tuve un problema de ph que ya pude solucionar y haciendo lst quebré el tronco central pero ya se está recuperado

Really big monster with big yield powder. Beauty green colors. She is very leafy so I recommend some defoliation. I will upload more details when it will be cured. Also I will upload smoke review and dry weigh.

If you have to aim for success.... you can't miss Sweet Seeds beans which have been a guarantee for me for years!😋

Plant still bulking out with clear and milky trichomes. Plant receiving water at the same frequency. May have started the flushing process a week too early.

Plants are really flowering still small but plant one has a lot of tops now and plant 2’s buds are already getting dense.

Welcome growers Week n°4 ended for this nice AYAHUASCA PURPLE 😈 In the past seven days she has started to grow in growth and is now no longer the smallest in the garden 🌱🌳 The color is a nice green and the vigor is also good 💪 Solid lower branches.. I hope to seeing purple everywhere 🔥🔥 Anyway.. A few days ago i have decided to modificated her grow doing the topping technique ✂️ I would to have the same heightnes for all my ten strains in the garden and so, i decided to do it for all my ladyes (except one) I have also cut a couple of leafs off, not too much for now, just for increase the airflow and for a higher lights exposure of the lowers parts 🍃 For now she reacts pretty well.. For helping in this process, i have changed anothers things, like lights intensity and types of nutrients.. About the lights 💡 Doing that, i have increase the potency of my two Mars-Hydro SP3000, from 25% to 50% ⬆️ The two led panel are connected with a cable and i have only to adjuste the dimmer of one of them for change the intensity of each one, in just one move.. Pretty useful 💯 In the middle of the week i have switch from 18/6 on/off to 16/8 on/off.. Always tryed to mimic the natural cycle of the sun light, works good to me 👌 Anyway.. About nutrients 👇 In this week i have giving her always organic/veganic nutrients.. A little bit of silicium (Bionova) / Activator (Biomagno) / Crescita (Biomagno) / Activera (Biobizz) / Grow vegan (Bionova) / The Missing Link (Bionova) / X-Cell (Bionova) and a little bit of P-K 3-5 (Bionova) {This last one i have used in a foliar spray solution} Like i usually do, a little bit of everything at any watering 💧 And that's it.. Stay tuned, we'll see you at the end of week n°5 📆 The beginning of flowering 🌻 Thank you so much for stopping by 😎👍 FC ✌️ 🇮🇹

Day 46: nutrients like plan Pictures are taken on day 47 --------------------------------------------- Not much to say, she is growing good 👍 She still has her "discolouration", which she has since day 1. 😅 Happy growing 🕷️🌱

Start of week 9
