Found large numbers of spidermites as well as some thrips. Luckily all were on my marigold plants, a few had wondered on to my ladies but the issue has been contained with minimal harm to the plants

I changed the reservoir and set the pH to around 5.3 and reduced the nutrients by 5ml/g. I just realized I've been adding far far fewer nutrients than I thought. I've been using 30ml in a 5 gal bucket (probably 4.5g volume) but I should be using 30ml/g so 4x as much. I'm going to leave it for now but I should probably start adding more nutrients. I took the wires I was using for LST off the bucket so it isn't stressed during flower and so it's easier to change the water. I'm taking off fan leaves that are blocking bud sites if I can't tuck them away. It grew a crazy amount today, so many little pistils came out. It's an exciting time. July 10 she thirsty. I added half a gallon of water and a full 30ml of each nutrient. That should bring us close to half the recommended nutes. I'll probably change the full res out and give 3/4 nutes sometime this week and go up to full strength next weekend if everything looks OK. https://www.remonutrients.com/calculator/ I just looked at my chart again and I think I was right the first time. I just added more nutrients for no reason. I added another half gallon of water and checked ppm and pH. Ppm is 1050, pH is 5.8. Gonna keep an eye on it through the day and see what happens. 305pm pH 5.8 ppm 1200 July 11 pH 5.8 ppm 1300. I'll add some plain water after the res goes down a bit more. Looks like the plant isn't using all the available nutes and is probably leaching some. She looks good though. Loads of vertical growth over the past week, now really going hard making bud sites. I'm going to see how this nute situation goes before doing any major defoliation or pruning. Leaf temp was 29 on the central cola so I turned up the fans and raised the light a bit. July 12 ppm down to 1200, pH still 5.8. Looks like it's going to be ok. July 13 ppm 1300 pH 6.2. I dropped an entire oscillating fan on my plant today. I broke 4 stems almost clean off. 3 appear to be surviving through duct tape and wire. The biggest one appears to be a casualty. I'm pissed. But the cabinet is coming together. Once it's perfect this kind of thing won't happen. I salvaged a piece of plywood yesterday and hand sawed the whole thing to fit as a door.

As you'll read below one of these was tossed, the better looking one in fact so only 1 remains right now. Hopefully this one doesnt turn too. Aight so the other day I found another hermie in the very early stages. So I emptied the tent and sat in there in the pitch black for 15 minutes to let my eyes adjust looking for anywhere light could get in. Because I have 2 veg tents in the same room on 19 hr schedules it's impossible for me to have the room the tent is in be pitch black. There was no leaks in the fabric but the air vents at the bottom, even tho I only have 3 open a little bit, let in the slightest amount of light. I had to toss out a mandarin cookies R1V2, a bwiz x Rocberry and a gushers. I found a male flower on a Hawaiian snow x wc x g33 on a lower but instead of tossing it I removed all the lowers and am going to check daily to see if its aight or not. I ordered a ac infinity 4 inch fan, some light proof ducting and a intake carbon filter to be able to set up a intake and close the vents. Very little pollen may have dropped which could seed everything but I might have found it just in time we will see. I almost retired on the spot but I'll give the intake fan a shot as a last ditch effort. Otherwise I would have to remove the veg tents or have intake fans and no open vents for all tents.

Es ist soweit! Am Freitag habe ich die fünf Easy Buds nach knapp 11 1/2 Wochen abgeschnitten und geerntet. Leider musste ich feststellen, dass eine Pflanze ziemlich stark befallen war. Ich vermute eine Milbenart oder möglicherweise Fliegeneier. Unterhalb der Blätter waren etliche dunkelgelbe und dunkelbraune Eier, die man auf den ersten Blick kaum erkennen konnte. Bei genauerem Hinsehen sieht man jedoch, dass sich der Befall auf die ganze Pflanze ausgeweitet hatte. Glücklicherweise blieben die vier anderen Pflanzen verschont. Aus diesem Grund trockne ich die Pflanzen auch getrennt voneinander. Die befallene Pflanze wollte ich nicht direkt wegwerfen, sondern erstmal trocknen lassen. Im Nachhinein werde ich schauen, wie ich mögliche Schadensbegrenzung betreiben kann. Die vier gesunden Pflanzen werden in einem geschlossenen Zelt in einem Trocknungsbeutel getrocknet. Die befallene Pflanze habe ich in dem Folienzelt aufgehängt und mit einer Plane abgedeckt. Nach wenigen Tagen der Trocknung sieht soweit eigentlich alles gut aus. Die Eier scheinen nicht mehr zu schlüpfen, sondern fallen von der Blüte ab oder verschrumpeln zu Kompost. Ich hoffe, dass es dabei bleibt. Der Geruch hat sich nach dem Abschneiden deutlich verändert. Schon nach der kurzen Trocknungszeit kann ich einen intensiveren Geruch feststellen, der sich noch nicht so richtig beschreiben lässt. Die Blüten waren stark mit den sogenannten "Sugar Leaves" verwachsen, weshalb ich sie grob getrimmt habe, um sie zum Trocknen aufzuhängen. Nachdem die Blüten vollständig getrocknet sind, werde ich die Buds noch einmal einzeln trimmen und durch meine Trimm-Maschine von Vevor jagen. Der Ernteprozess hat zu zweit circa eine Stunde gedauert. Die Pflanzen waren zum Zeitpunkt der Ernte noch sehr gesund und kräftig. Die Verwurzelung war trotz des geschlossenen Topfes sehr gut. Die schönste Bud hat definitiv die zentrale Pflanze, Greta, ergeben. Nass hätte ich den Bud auf mindestens 12 g geschätzt. Ein Gesamtgewicht des nassen Pflanzenmaterials habe ich nicht ermittelt. Sobald alles trocken und fertig beschnitten ist, werde ich das Tagebuch um den trockenen Betrag ergänzen. Stand jetzt würde ich schätzen, dass der Ertrag aller Pflanzen bei circa 40-50 g liegt, was mich für meinen ersten Grow ziemlich zufrieden stellt, besonders in Anbetracht dieser wirklich sehr simplen Strain. Mehr Infos und Fotos folgen in Kürze, wenn das Curing beginnt. Bis bald! :)

They are growing really well. One of them might be mini pheno but well see hopefully she'll catch up at some point. Giving them just water to roots and leaf feeding them with seaweed extract.

💙 Project Blue Tent – Week 6 Blue Waffle F1 – Pheno A (Folder 13A) Welcome back everyone to another week inside Project Blue Tent! If this is your first visit, welcome aboard. This project is all about exploring the incredible Blue Waffle F1 genetics from Zamnesia while putting the complete Zamnesia ecosystem through its paces. Rather than documenting four plants as one diary, each phenotype receives its own weekly report, allowing us to appreciate how identical F1 genetics can still express their own individual personalities despite growing under exactly the same conditions. Every week we observe how each plant responds to training, nutrition and the environment, slowly building a complete picture of who they are becoming. As I always like to say... We're not just growing plants. We're getting to know them. ──────────────────────── 🌱 Week Six – Filling Every Corner This week has been all about patience, consistency and allowing the canopy to slowly take over the tent. Plant A now stands at approximately 60 cm tall and has spent the entire week doing exactly what I hoped she would do after installing the SCROG net. Rather than stretching vertically, she's investing her energy into filling her own corner of the screen with healthy new shoots. Every day I spend a few minutes gently guiding the tallest branches back underneath the net, encouraging them to grow horizontally instead of racing upward. For anyone unfamiliar with the technique, SCROG (Screen of Green) is designed to create one large, even canopy instead of allowing a few dominant branches to tower above the rest. By weaving each branch beneath the screen, every future flowering site receives similar light intensity, producing a much more uniform canopy once flowering begins. It's not something you do once. It's something you do a little every single day. Little by little the branches spread, new shoots appear, and before long the entire screen begins filling itself. Plant A has embraced the process beautifully. She isn't fighting the training. She's working with it. ──────────────────────── 🌿 Plant Development Opening the tent each morning has become incredibly rewarding. The lighter green colour we observed a couple of weeks ago has completely disappeared, replaced by rich, healthy foliage from top to bottom. The adjustment we made to the feeding schedule has clearly been exactly what these ladies were asking for. Plant A now looks vigorous, balanced and full of energy. Her leaves are broad, healthy and beautifully coloured, while the new growth remains vibrant without showing any signs of nutrient stress despite running an EC that some growers might initially consider relatively high. One thing I've learned over many years is that nutrient strength isn't about following someone else's numbers. It's about listening to what your own plants are telling you. Right now these girls are telling me they're happy. So nothing changes. ──────────────────────── 🌡️ Environment Despite the middle of summer bringing consistently warm weather outside, the environment inside the Blue Tent continues to remain remarkably stable. This week's average conditions were: • Day Temperature: 30°C • Night Temperature: 27°C • Relative Humidity: 58% • pH: 5.8 • EC: 1.92 mS/cm • CO₂: approximately 450 ppm • Light Schedule: 18/6 • PPFD: approximately 350 The small difference between day and night temperatures is something I'll be paying attention to once flowering begins, as warmer nights can encourage additional stretch during the early weeks of bloom. For now though, while we're still focused entirely on vegetative growth and filling the SCROG, these conditions continue producing exactly the results I'm looking for. One challenge at a time. ──────────────────────── 🥥 Feeding Program The feeding schedule remains unchanged because the plants have shown absolutely no reason for me to adjust it. This week's nutrient solution consisted of: • Hydro A – 1.9 ml/L • Hydro B – 1.9 ml/L • Hydro Roots – 1 ml/L With only minor pH adjustments where required. Although an EC of 1.92 may appear relatively high to some growers, the plants couldn't be giving me clearer feedback. Rich green foliage. Strong stems. Rapid vegetative growth. Healthy root development. Plants don't read feeding charts. They simply tell us whether they're happy. And these girls certainly are. ──────────────────────── 🕸️ The SCROG Continues This week the screen has really started showing its purpose. Every day I continue tucking the tallest branches back beneath the net, encouraging lateral growth while allowing slower branches to catch up. The objective isn't simply to keep the plants short. The objective is to create dozens of future flowering tops all sitting at roughly the same height. Once the screen is almost completely filled, we'll perform one final defoliation to improve airflow and light penetration before flipping the tent into flower. We're getting closer every single day. Nature is building the canopy. I'm simply guiding it. ──────────────────────── 🐛 An Unexpected Visitor This week also reminded me that no matter how careful we are, nature always finds ways to surprise us. While inspecting the plants I discovered a single caterpillar happily enjoying one of the leaves. Considering how strict I am with hygiene before entering the grow room, it genuinely caught me by surprise. I always shower, change into clean clothes and do everything possible to avoid bringing unwanted guests inside. Yet somehow... One tiny traveller still managed to find its way from the vegetable garden into the tent. Thankfully, regular inspections meant the problem was caught immediately. The caterpillar was removed by hand, the damaged leaves were cleaned up, and an IPM (Integrated Pest Management) inspection was carried out across the entire grow. IPM isn't simply reacting when problems appear. It's creating regular routines that help prevent small issues from ever becoming large ones. Observation is always the first line of defence. ──────────────────────── 🛡️ A Little Extra Protection To finish the inspection, I also used the Future of Grow UVC LED bar as an additional preventative measure. UVC light can help reduce unwanted spores and microorganisms that may have found their way into the grow room, making it another useful tool within an overall IPM strategy. It's important to mention that UVC must always be used responsibly. Direct exposure can damage both plants and skin, so proper precautions and eye protection are essential whenever working with this type of equipment. Used correctly, however, it becomes another valuable layer of prevention rather than waiting for problems to appear. As always... Prevention is easier than treatment. ──────────────────────── 💙 Plant A's Personality Every phenotype has its own way of growing. Plant A continues proving herself to be one of the most balanced girls inside the Blue Tent. She isn't trying to dominate the canopy. She isn't rushing toward flower. Instead she's quietly filling her own space with healthy branches, beautiful leaf colour and excellent structure. Every week she seems more comfortable with the training, and every week her corner of the tent becomes a little fuller. She's exactly the kind of plant that rewards patience. ──────────────────────── 👀 Looking Ahead If everything continues at this pace, I expect the SCROG screen to be almost completely filled over the coming week. Once that happens, the next major milestone will be a final clean-up and defoliation before flipping the tent into flower. Until then, the daily routine remains wonderfully simple. Tuck the branches. Observe the plants. Keep the environment stable. Let nature do the heavy lifting. Sometimes growing isn't about doing more. It's about knowing when to simply stay out of the plant's way. ──────────────────────── 💙 Thank You A huge thank you to Zamnesia for making Project Blue Tent possible, from these outstanding Blue Waffle F1 genetics to the complete ecosystem surrounding this grow. A massive thank you to Plagron for providing the Premium Growbags together with the Hydro nutrient line, which continues delivering beautiful, healthy growth week after week. A special thank you to Mars Hydro for the drip irrigation and automatic drainage system that keeps watering both simple and reliable. Thank you as well to Future of Grow for the excellent UVC LED bar, which has now become another valuable tool within my Integrated Pest Management routine. And finally, thank you to GrowDiaries and to every single person following this journey. Whether you're here to learn, share your own experience, ask questions or simply enjoy watching these phenotypes develop, I genuinely appreciate every visit, every comment and every conversation. Hopefully next week we'll have a completely filled SCROG, perform our final defoliation, and prepare these beautiful ladies for the moment we've all been waiting for... Flowering. Until next week... Growers Love and happy growing! 🌱💙

Day 35 - few pics and vids..... everything going along nicely 👍 This is a pretty big update, so i'll add to it over the next few days, as i finish building it all.... i'm building these 2 x SS haze, the full tent, just finishing up the setup..... trimming them, changing solutions to 12/12 and flower..... changed the exhaust fan and filter setup to the better outside the tent method.... and installed 12v CPU computer fan, lol ("alta9" fits in 4in ducting perfectly), drops wattage on extractor fan.... 10w tops... got a few kg of active carbon and making/replacing the carbon filter .... i'll add afew vids of the new setup in afew days... Day 36 - few pics/vid of new tent setup...... "alta 9" fan :) post tomorrow after i finish trimmin and settin up night mode etc...... and into tomorrow we go, lol ... Day 37.... slowly getting there..... little bit more to go... this should make things abit more interesting..... right tank (short babie) has : 19 lts of tap water @18oC + 150 ml -dutch master one gold FLOWER.... 6.4 PH - 1400 PPM left tank has : 19 lts of tap water @18oC + 50 ml of elements a and 50ml of b and 10 ml of nitro and 20ml of Crystalic (molasses/pot) .... 6.5 PH - 1200 PPM more pics / vids of the finished tent setup.... roots, transfer, etc... Day 37 is alot of vids of the clean and change to flower..... edit - day after build noticed left tank (nutrifield) not enough bubbles..... pulled out the 4 air pump and swapped to the 2 x original oxipumps... much better, also to fix the problem with ph goin high, and bubbles not stirin the mix, was to add another 10ml of crystallic and another 5ml of nitro... then pumped both tanks with ph down and set em to 5.8-6.2 - both plants have fully recovered from the big trim, and bounced back within 12-24hrs, post pics/vid in abit..... Day 39 - made a freaky video... was curious about what the plants would see looking up at the lights... the lights and buzzing of air compressors and bubbling tank water, and dazzling lights turned out pretty cool in vid editor, was in selfie mode.... and final vid of the bounceback from trim :) 👍😎

What do you think? What is the problem of the plant? Did it suffer? Or is near to the end?

Really getting thick now! Showing some yellow, begging for some P/K! I just added in Success Nutrients Game Time, so excited to see how fat she can get. I'm a bit obsessed with her now, she looks so pretty. She's about 24" now with her bud growing. Still an easy going plant with minimal effort needed.

Hello Diary. The second week of flowering is behind us. I did a little defoliation this week, I honestly didn’t dare remove more leaves and branches, I didn’t know how they would react to it. Maybe I needed more? The temperature is still high, sometimes rising to 29, 30 degrees, but mostly around 28. Humidity in the air is an average of about 55% but sometimes rises to 60%. The problem is frequent rains this summer which creates high humidity in the air and this affects the humidity in the box as well. The flowers are developing nicely, and they have started to smell as well, but let the pictures speak for themselves. The plants are big for my conditions, the 120 x 60 box size is perhaps too small for three plants (two Hulkberries and one Green Gelato), so the real jungle is in the box. It’s already a challenge to take them out every week for a photo shoot, but I try to be as careful with them as possible. The Hulkberry has reached a height of 113 cm which is on the verge of acceptability. If it continues another ten cm, I’ll be in trouble because the lights can’t lift more than this. 18/07/2020. - Day 30. Defoliation. I removed the leaves at the very bottom of the plant to make it easier for me to water them, after that I watered the plants but this time I didn’t put BioBizz, I just watered them with clean water. 21/07/2020. - Day 33. Watering. This time I gave them BioBizz, on schedule for the second week of flowering. I also added CalMag 1.5ml / L, preventively. While they don’t show they’re missing anything, I’ll keep adding CalMag. 23/07/2020. - Day 35. Photography and height measurement. Hulkberry Auto # 1 - Day 35. - 97cm Hulkberry Auto # 2 - Day 35. - 113cm That’s all for this week, see you soon.

Hey Grow-Community, es ist wieder Zeit für das DWC-Update! Wir sind in der kritischsten Phase angelangt – der 6. Blütewoche. Jetzt geht es darum, maximale Masse und Dichte in die Blüten zu bekommen. Und was soll ich sagen? Meine Early Skunk Diven liefern eine Bilderbuch-Performance ab! Der Zustand der Superstars: • Pflanzenkörper: Sie sind kerngesund, saturn-grün und zeigen absolut keine Mangelerscheinungen. Die Buds verdichten sich massiv und die Trichomproduktion läuft auf Hochtouren. Der Blütenduft wird immer intensiver. • Wurzelzone: Das Highlight jeder Hydro-Woche! Das System wurde komplett gereinigt (VC-Anlage ist blitzsauber) und die Wurzeln sind kernweiß – ein Traum im DWC und das beste Zeichen für optimale Sauerstoffversorgung und ein perfektes Wurzel-Spa. Das Hesi-Menü für 38 Liter (FL-Woche 6): Pünktlich zum Peak der Blüte gab es heute den frischen Tankinhalt. Da der Bedarf an Kalium und Phosphor nun am höchsten ist, wurde die PK-Dosierung exakt nach Hesi-Schema für die 6. Woche angepasst. Mit dieser perfekt abgestimmten Nährlösung und den kerngesunden Wurzeln sind wir bereit, die Endphase der Blüte einzuläuten. Bleibt gespannt, denn bald startet die entscheidende Spülphase!
