week 9 of flower for these girls The smell off them is pretty extraordinary now, I really cannot wait to taste them, Thinking of cutting down next week, awkward place to try and check the trichomes on them atm, but since there are 2 I'll definitely cut one next week and maybe let the other finish week 10, will see Thanks for swinging by

I've caught various carnivorous critters and released them in my garden. They seem happy here. Just began using overdrive. Cant wait for next weeks pictures.

Greetings, fellow cultivators! It's time for the Week 2 Veg Report on our marvelous Epsilon F1, and let me tell you, the growth has been nothing short of spectacular. Our little green companion has truly spread its wings and embraced the journey of life. Now, let's talk about the VIP treatment our Epsilon F1 received this week. I decided it was time for a change of scenery, so I gently transplanted her into a spacious 11 L fabric pot graciously provided by Royal Queen Seeds. Now, let's dive into the wonders of fabric pots. Fabric pots are like a luxury spa for plant roots, allowing for optimal aeration and preventing over watering. The fabric's breathability promotes air pruning, stopping those pesky circling roots and encouraging a robust, healthy root system. It's like a tailored suit for our Epsilon F1, allowing it to grow with style and comfort. But that's not all, my friends. During the transplant, I whipped up a magical Aptus Holland super soil mix, and oh boy, it's a nutrient symphony. Let's break it down: Micromix Soil: This powerhouse contains a mix of microorganisms and stimulants, creating a microbial wonderland in the soil. It's like inviting the best party guests to the root zone, promoting nutrient uptake and overall plant health. Substrate Buffer Powder: The pH magician in our mix. It conditions all substrates, ensuring a stable pH environment for our Epsilon F1. No more pH rollercoasters, just smooth sailing for our green friend. All-in-One Pellet: The time-released 100% organic pellet fertilizer that's like a Michelin-star meal for our plant. It comes with a compounded NPK fertilizer, essential microelements, and even L-amino acids. It's the complete package for a happy, well-fed plant. And, of course, we can't forget the star of the show, Mycor Mix! A mixture of various species of endomycorrhizae, working tirelessly to support our crop. Fixed on a vegetal carrier, it feeds and protects the fungi, creating a symbiotic relationship that's pure magic for plant growth. Our Epsilon F1 is reacting like a rockstar to this nutrient fiesta, and I couldn't be prouder. Shout-outs to Royal Queen Seeds for the stellar genetics and the thoughtful pot, and major kudos to Aptus Holland for being the wizard behind the curtain, crafting nutrients that turn plants into botanical marvels. Stay tuned, dear readers, as we watch our Epsilon F1 continue its journey of botanical excellence. As always thank you all for stopping by and for supporting me on this journey, i am super passion about growing and fell blessed to have you all with me on this new journey <3 <3 <3 Genetics - RQS EPSILON F1 Ligth - LUMATEK ZEUS 465 COMPACT PRO

WEEK 1 of flower. This is insanely quick, veg for three weeks and on week 4 we are flowering strong. It is raining a lot, so i had to use a top dressing, ingredients on the week 3, to manage the soil nutrients till the end of the cycle. About two table spoons. Watering once a week, with the mix above, otherwise rain is taking care of them, very natural as a grow, nothing much complicated, no science fiction with fertilizer or chemistry. I’m curious about the yield, and how much can i pull out of this way, with minimal work and a nearly inert soil. Let’s see how this experiment turns out.

This week i defoliated on day 18 because i have way too many top coming out and too many lowbuds that were getting no light from being covered by layers and layers of leaves. All strains but the og Martian have real tight internodal spacing.

soo one was way more photogenic than the other 😅 also I know I put a lot of videos but I'm obsessed with this strain ok? it's amazing and I'm proud of me😁😁 oh and how DOPE is the timelapse? 🤯🔥🔥🔥🔥

Dec. 11 - Week 10 begins with a fresh sachet of Cucumeris and lots of plain water. Dec. 15 - I have removed the majority of the crispy leaves. Watering is a slow process now, 5ml takes almost 5 minutes to absorb into the soil, and about 25ml before there is any runoff if the soil was allowed to dry at all, like when I sleep. During my waking hours I just give it 4-5ml here and there as I go about my day. There are a few trichomes showing up so she's still progressing, still growing. This is such a hearty cultivar, it's a shame Humboldt Seeds may be retiring it, but excited for what the'll introduce next. Dec. 17 - While applying the first bit of water today I noticed something moving on the can, often it's a droplet from spilling, but this was different so I looked closer. It was what I assume to be a fairly young thrip (3-5 days) being harassed by a couple cucumeris, something I presumed was happening, but never actually thought I'd witness. Unfortunately for the cucumeries I squished the bugs they were after.

Been slack with the updates as we are busy buidling a new greenhouse. will make sure I take nice individual photos for harvest though.

Ripped out the males, switching to plain water after this week!

Miami Mami by Solfire (clones, two phenotypes) Vega (18/6), days: 19 Flowering (12/12), days: 61 Total, days: 80 Ec 0.2-0.45 (FloraKleen, reverse osmosis water) Ph 6.4 Red 100% Blue 50% UV 0% DLI ~36 T. Day: ~27C T. Night: ~22C Humidity: ~55% T.leaf: 28C 🔥 VPD: 1.78kPa 4 days before harvesting I watered with FloraKleen, 2 days before harvesting I watered with reverse osmosis water, the last day I gave not darkness but 24 hours of light :) Everything seems ok. Harvested, I don't know the weight, how it dries, I'll thaw and weigh it. The smell is sweet, with the taste of either berries or roses with a light mint note, without a hint of the classic skunk smell. The buds are not large but very dense and trichomycete, the leaves are purple-pink, If you take off the leaves with your fingers, it leaves not a green color on your hands, but purple-pink (as from mulberry), I have never seen such a thing. I dry at vpd 0.7-0.8kPa, temperature 19C, humidity 65%. It will dry in 7-10 days. The cycle ended almost a month early due to the use of clones.

Der Zeitplan sieht gut aus.. die Pflanzen haben wirklich eine kurze Blütezeit und man kann sie wie es aussieht schon nächste Woche ernten. Diesmal auch ein kurzes Video für euch

The good weather is back so these babies are back outside!

11-24 Going smoothly starting to frost up LAMFER #1 and #3 is behind MELLO YELLO she took off fixed herself and is becoming a beautiful ass plant 33 inches so far and frosting up and getting fatter by the day im a week are so behind on the other 2 3 different phenos this round all are 100% different 1300 ppms total 6.0 ph a gallon a day between these 3 alone🔥🔥🔥🔥🍇🍇🍇🍇🍇🍇🍇🍇🍇🍇👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆⛽⛽⛽⛽⛽⛽⛽⛽

-4/2/23 Start of Week --Week 2 -4/4/23 (Day 17) --Observations: still not having problems with daily nutrient spray, looks as if it has lost the explosive growth that it had in the first week. --Changes: lowered RH to 50%, also started spraying soil with nutrient water --Diary Entry: the HR was lowered because of other plants being in the last weeks before harvest, so it will be going back up in two weeks. the light cycle will change to 18/ 6 light/night once the other plants get harvested. the light will be lowered at the beginning of next week but the intensity will not be lowered unless problems arise. will be checking soil for PH and temperature at the end of the week, may take photo of the soil probe readings. -4/5/23 (Day 18) --Diary Entry: full watering without nutrients and sprayed with nutrients. Still working on first shade leaves, no second set yet. --Post-Note: still trying find good settings on my new Fujifilm X-H2 for the two lenses that I have, Fujifilm 16mm-80mm zoom and 30mm macro. Photos are only going to get better, also still having problems with focus stacking but that could be staking program. May start adding what lens is being used in the caption for each photo. -4/6/23 (Day 19) --Observations: second set of shade leaves are forming --Diary Entry: photo makes it hard to see the second set of shade leaves but they are there. will be taking end of the week photos and video with macro lens. -4/8/23 (day 21) --Observations: second set of shade leaves are growing quick --Diary Entry: quickly making progress now, should start forming branch nodes soon. one more week of 12/12 light/night cycle then it will get 18/6 light/night until it is required to start flower cycle, trying to line up harvest with the fast flower competition. will start training when branch nodes start forming, should be sometime late next week or the falowing week. -4/8/23 End of Week

The runtz are about 45cm start of this week and the tall LCC is 75cm. She is also further into flower, but did not spread out so much in the tent. RAK seems to be very good with high PPFD, for the LCC they need a bit less I can feel.

Plant is 6 weeks from seed tomorrow, I have upped nutes to 3ml per litre of both A +B Canna coco nutrients for a couple of waterings but she's soon started showing nute burn again so i've lowered to 2.75ml . Stretch has slowed right down and I'm hoping will stop very soon

Day 6 update - adjusted tie down points and watered. Still no pests and no other significant signs of stress. They ladies are happy and healthy. Day 3 update - Two of the plants have started transitioning into flower. Next week BB1 and BB3 will be dubbed in flower. BB2 pheno is strange I just can't quite tell if it's even in flower... it's lanky and strange. Temps have been steady and now that the heat in the home is on I have to watch heat stress again. BB3 has recovered fully now with new growth looking absolutely perfect. No problems with pests or anything else at the moment. ....Previously.... (day 7 of week 3 - day 1 week 4) One feeding of baking soda to raise the PH of the soil. I decided to tie the girls down the last day of week 3. The topped plant (Bb2) looks more like the strain should than the other 2 phenotypes according to pictures. But the BB1 pheno is so bushy it will be a bigger yeilder for sure. The Bb3 pheno has recovered a bit we will see if the baking soda addition to the top watering helps rebound her better. Selective defoliation was done on all 3 phenos with some under growth getting removed and a couple target fan leaves blocking prime budsites.
