Hi, good fellows!💚 🌱Day 72. Watering with 3.1L 6.7ph 150ppm clear water. Run off water get 90ml 6.7ph 300ppm. Leaves more indicates nutrients deficiency.💚 🌱Day 74. Watering with 3.5L 6.4ph 150ppm clear water. Run off water get 165ml 6.5ph 300ppm.💚 🌱Day 75. Due to mistake, because some time too high🤣💚, watering with 2.5L 6.4ph 150ppm clear water one day earlier. 😂💚 Run off water get 165ml 6.1ph 400ppm. Add some video.💚

Enjoyed growing the red poison©️ just wish all 3 were purple but thats the luck of the draw i suppose. Spider farmer light still going strong after 2 years and my cheap ass iropro 250w light off amazon (90quid) seams to be alright for the space i have, i switched to hesi nutrients towards the end of this crop as i ran out and found it ideal that every i need is inside the hesi starter box, ill be interested to see the results in the next crop, so please follow for more diaries. Peace and stay high, stay fly. #420everyday

Day 63, Coming closer to the end but with some problems that I've never had before, this is all because I ran out of CalMag and took most people's word that soil would be fine without it, not with biobizz all mix, which I will carry on using still but, it's quite rubbish soil to be honest.

5/07/24 day 15 I was worried with how small she is, I started her a little early for outdoor so she hasn’t been getting proper lighting but she’s not too far behind other plants at this age. Hopefully she’s set her roots deep and is ready to grow upwards 5/11 she’s loves the sun so much. I was worried about her but she’s gonna be fine 🌱 5/12/24 I gave her a tsp of Terp Tea Grow 711. This last week she had grown very well, she has 3 nodes total and is working on more

Harvested n hung in the dry box. Cardboard with small humidifer on a inkbird. Under A/C on blast the box stays a little below 70 deg. and 57~63% rh. 4 inch duct leading into another tent for passive exhaust from box to tent. No dark period, little early honestly couldve went another week max. Will report back.

Hello to You all my familly and usual visitors. Thank you for stopping by and all the likes and comments....you are the best! Everything runs smooth, the girl seems in good condition and fattening nicely. The bright2.32 Mars Hydro TS 1000 is kept at 33 cm from the top of my plants is is running on full power. TS 1000 gives a full spectrum of light to the plants and you can see that...the leaves are lush green and develop without any hindrance, Mars Hydro did a very good job producing this lamp. Thanks to Mars Hydro for supplying the necessary equipment for this grow. My diaries are four days late, so it's possible i will update the next week very soon ;) That's it for this week folks, have a wonderful week and please come beck visit in three days time.

Pretty simple first week! Seed took 3 nights for the taproot to pop and it was planted in its final pot on day 4. On day 6, it finally popped through the soil and on day 7 the little sprout is starting to grow up. There is a small piece of seed casing left attached. Going to leave it for a day or two. If it doesn't fall off, I'll do it myself. Thanks for stopping by! 🥦

📆 Semana 12 Llegó el momento de corte ✂️💎 La planta completa su ciclo mostrando cogollos densos, muy resinados y con una maduración ya estable. Los tricomas alcanzan un punto óptimo entre lechosos y algunos ámbar, mientras el fade final deja hojas amarillas y una degradación natural de clorofila 🍂 El aroma se vuelve más profundo, complejo y limpio, cerrando el cultivo con muy buenas sensaciones 🌿 El lavado con Master Piece ayudó a terminar el ciclo de forma limpia y equilibrada. Ahora empieza una fase igual de importante: secado y curado ? Seguimos creciendo fuerte 💪!

02/23/2022 Lots of stretching this week,not much to say so I let the pics and videos talk for them selves🙏🏻 Enjoy Grape Skunk tall and lanky one I'm loving! I will number her for future reference. Biscotti Skunk has some droopy leaves, it's watering day.

3-30-20 Yummy! That's all I can say when I open up the tent. Will up their feed strength next res change since I think they could use a bit more nutrients. 4-4-20 Week 5 coming to an end and things are looking good and smelling better! Frost is starting to pile on these girls nicely. One thing I did notice on one of the Cali Sunsets is that some of the top most leaves are starting to turn purple from the backside. Don't know if its the strain or maybe a P Def? We'll have to wait and see I guess

1/12 4:14AM MONDAY!!!!!!!! CBG IS GOOD!1 LOWERD THE WATTAGE, EFFICIENCY IS GOOD. GREAT WHITE MYCO HAS INCREASED UPTAKE AND AND!!!! PHOTOSYNTHESIS EFFICIENCY ......FUCKING AWESOME 💪💪💪💪 1/12 4:47AM I asked GROK: are samsung leds on my mars hydro lights seem more efficient than the PPFD meter says, I lowered the lights again by a few watts? Yes, the **Samsung LM301H EVO diodes** in your Mars Hydro lights (likely an FC-E series like FC-E3000, FC-E4000, or similar) are among the most efficient horticultural LEDs available right now—individual diodes hit **3.14 μmol/J** efficacy, pushing the whole fixture to around **2.85–2.9 μmol/J** PPE (photosynthetic photon efficacy) in manufacturer specs and independent tests. That's top-tier for full-spectrum grow lights, meaning they convert more electrical power into usable plant photons than older diodes or cheaper LEDs. If they "seem more efficient than the PPFD meter says" (your plants thriving at lower wattage/height adjustments), that's actually common and not a contradiction—it's often the **real-world efficiency** shining through once nutes/stress are fixed. Here's why this happens and what your recent wattage drop (a few more watts lower) likely means: ### Why Samsung LM301H EVO Can "Seem" More Efficient Than Raw PPFD Readings Suggest - **High PPE + Uniform Distribution**: These diodes excel at producing photons in the PAR range (400–700nm) with minimal waste (heat/loss). Mars Hydro FC-EVOs achieve strong average PPFD (e.g., 750–1000+ μmol/m²/s in tests at recommended heights/power) with even spread—no hot spots wasting energy. When your nutes were suboptimal (Advanced Nutrients issues), plants couldn't fully use the light (wasted photons → stress, stretch, lower efficiency). Now dialed in (GH powder + aminos + mycos), they convert more of that PPFD into growth—making the light "feel" stronger/more efficient even if meter numbers stay the same or drop slightly. - **Meter Limitations & Calibration**: - Handheld PAR meters (especially cheap/older ones) can under-read full-spectrum LEDs like LM301H EVO (strong white + red enhancement). They often have poor spectral response to the exact mix, reading 10–30% low compared to pro tools (Apogee SQ-500) or calibrated apps. - If you're using an app like Photone (mentioned in your diary), it's generally more accurate for Samsung full-spectrum lights (especially on iPhone; Android varies but often close with diffuser/paper). Many growers report Photone matching or exceeding cheap handhelds on LM301H setups—sometimes showing higher effective PPFD than a basic meter implies. - Bottom line: Your plants are the ultimate meter. Thriving (miraculous growth, no burn/stress) at lower wattage means the effective usable PPFD is higher than a potentially under-reading meter suggests—efficiency win. ### Your Wattage Drop & What It Means Lowering by a few more watts (on top of the earlier ~10% drop) is smart and aligns with the efficiency gains: - Dimming on Mars Hydro FC series is **very linear**—tests show PPFD percentage tracks close to (or slightly above) the dimmer % because diodes run more efficiently at lower currents (less heat/loss). - Example: Dropping from 100% to 90% might only reduce PPFD by ~8–10%, not full 10%, due to that efficiency curve. - Your plants handling it (still "miraculously better") without stretch or pale leaves confirms the sweet spot: likely 450–650 μmol/m²/s veg/late veg range now, with room to push if pistils emerge. - Solar bonus: Every watt saved = less battery drain on cloudy days, cooler tent (less fan/AC draw), and more headroom for extra plants without spiking consumption. **Practical next steps**: - Recheck PPFD (if using Photone/handheld): Average multiple canopy spots at current height/power—aim 450–600 for late veg autos, 600–800 early flower. - Watch response: If nodes stay tight/dark green/no cupping, you can drop another 5% or lower height slightly for denser canopy. - Log kWh if your inverter shows it—track the drop to celebrate the savings. - If meter still "under-says" vs. plant performance, trust the plants more—Samsung EVOs are proven beasts when the rest of the grow is dialed. This is textbook optimization: nute fix → better photon use → lower power for same/better results → solar efficiency skyrockets. You're building a truly lean system. How low are you at now (e.g., 70–75W total?)? Any pistils or new growth explosions today? Keep the momentum—it's paying off big. 🥊🍌👨‍🔬🚨🌞 1/13/26 7:47AM BRUTAL WEEK FOR THE MOP AND BUCKET GUYS AT MUDRUROS COMPOUND 1/13, 11:22 AM banana purple punch auto RF three is doing really great. I haven’t really needed to do anything. I decided not to top. I didn’t want to do anything except light stress training. I think she’s gonna turn out just great. Her stock is one of the thickest. She’s just perfect.😍😍😍
