Because of the wind some branches were broken. Fixed with bamboos .

This week was emotionally tough. The Pineapple Upside-Down Cake hasn’t handled the transition well. Her color shifted to a dull, washed-out tone, the posture weakened, and the overall metabolism seems depressed. The stress accumulated during late veg is still showing: nutrient fluctuations, environmental instability, and then the photoperiod flip pushed her over the edge. She simply didn’t bounce back. At this stage, expectations for yield have to be revised downward. This run won’t deliver what the early training and maintenance work could have produced. Still, the plan is to take the plant to harvest rather than abandoning the cycle. Even a weak yield will provide useful feedback about stress management during pre-flower. The priority now is stability: hold EC steady, avoid aggressive feedings, monitor pH drift daily, and maintain a gentle VPD to reduce transpiration stress. No interventions this week other than observation and minor parameter corrections. The goal is to see whether she stabilizes or declines further. Next update in one week.

Great week inside this tent. The girl got her topping and then recovered over the week. There were already some good side branching and now they are being trained even more. Flipping to flower now.

☆♡ Gorilla Cookies: I've noticed a leaf fell off the bottom. I think I may've overdone the nutes. She's growing tremendously. I top dressed with the below, as the rest of my plants. I will only use PH'd water for the next several waterings, probably with Biosys or seaweed. ♡☆ 16.2.25: I decided to check out the lower canopies of all plants to see if I need to get rid of any foliage. I did get rid of a few small branches and leaves. However, whilst I was doing this, I saw more garden pegs from my LST remaining. There were about 6 or more in Pink Mist alone. Additionally, on Watermelon, there were some left in, too. I'm so annoyed to see that because the plants are really stretching, and I could've potentially disrupted this by leaving the pegs in for all this time without realising it. 🤞 that I haven't compromised things too much. We'll see. I watered today with 2ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.3 containing the following nutrients; ♡ .8g Green Leaf Nutrients PK booster ♡ .5g Ecothrive Biosys I ordered quite a few things for the garden. I got Greenleaf Nutrients Sea K(elp) and Mega Crop Parts A+B. To go with their PK Booster I got last month. I'm excited to try it all together. Next run, maybe just using these. We'll see how it goes. 18.2.25: The plants are going crazy for water! Everything is getting used right up so fast! Today, I decided to add some more Black Strap Molasses to add some carbs and other micronutrients. I'll add the jar with the label in the photos section above. I watered a very small amount to each plant. What I put in: ♡ Black strap molasses 150g ♡ 2g Sea K(elp) Greenleaf nutrients. I dissolved everything in 4ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4. 19.2.25: I received the majority of the garden purchases that I made. I'm still waiting for the Ecothrive Life Cycle. I wanted to top dress, but it's been delayed unfortunately. I am using my Greenleaf nutrients products which I bought on Amazon. I got the Mega Crop 2 part system Part A and Part B. I have the Sea K(elp), and the bud explosion PK booster. I really wanted to get some of their sweet candy asking read many positive reviews. Unfortunately, for me, this is unavailable to buy currently. So that's a little disappointing. I needed to do a good watering so when my nutes were delivered today, I got excited 🤗 I watered 2ltrs of dechlorinated water per plant, PH'd to 6.4, containing the following nutrients: ♡ 1g Mega Crop Part A ♡ 1g Mega Crop Part B ♡ .5g Sea K(elp). The plants drank this up within a few hours. I'm going to try and hold off on watering in hopes that my Ecothrive Life Cycle will arrive so I can top dress and water it in then. 20.2.25: My Ecothrive Life Cycle arrived yesterday, and the plants are ready for their top dress and a good watering in. I have some Biobizz Light Mix, Canna Coco,and perlite. I'm going to use this as a base to mix my amendments in. I'm going to fill my 5 gallon bucket with about 4.5 gallons of my top dress mix. I will distribute this across 6, 4-5 gallon pots. Then I will water in well with Greenleaf nutrients Mega Crop Parts A+B and Sea K(elp). I've made a crude attempt to video mixing my top dress. Don't listen to the audio. lol, my YouTube didn't stop playing whilst I recorded this 😂 So anyway, I added the following amendments to the above base mix of 4.5 gallons; ♡ 3 TBSP Ecothrive Life Cycle ♡ 3 TBSP Vitalink Bat Guano ♡ 3 TBSP Ecothrive Charge ♡ 1 TBSP RHS Mycorrhizal Fungi granules ♡ 6 TBSP Ground Cinnamon.

🐞 Week 4 Update: LST, A Little Helper, and a Funky Mutation! 🌿 Week Update: Shaping her up! 🐞 Welcome to Week 4! The plant is growing nicely and we are officially starting to shape her up. I had a little ladybug patrolling the coco and hanging out on the leaves always nice to have some natural pest control on duty! But the most interesting thing this week is a strange little leaf mutation on one of the new growths. The Details: Development: She is vegging well and taking to the substrate nicely. The roots must be getting well established because the top growth is really starting to push out. There is a really funky leaf mutation happening on one side (check the close-up pics!) where the leaf looks twisted and almost double-layered. It doesn't seem to be slowing her down though, just a cool genetic quirk! Structure: I started some LST (Low Stress Training) this week! Using some wire ties to gently bend the main stem down and expose those lower nodes to the light. The goal is to keep the canopy nice and even before she gets too tall. She took the bending like a champ and is already turning her top back up towards the light. Health: Overall health is great! The leaves are holding a beautiful deep green, no signs of nutrient burn or deficiencies so far. The ladybug friend 🐞 is a very welcome sight to keep any unwanted pests away from the tent. I'm keeping a close eye on the mutated leaf to see what it does, but otherwise, she's perfectly healthy and happy. Next Steps: I'll continue to adjust the LST ties as she stretches and keep monitoring the moisture levels. I'll probably up the feed slightly next week if she keeps responding this well. Let's see how this mutation develops! Happy Growing !!! 🥦☀️

Day 77: nice growth in length Day 82: beginning to see some hairs

Here we are this girl is flowering fast. So I do not think this is purple haze unless it is the fast flowering version.But even then, I don't think it is based off of other characteristics... So I legit have a mystery plant on my hands.. I will say she's getting frosty. It's super super early yet, and she's already frosting up, so I am happy about that.. I hope everyone is doing well.. Shout out to Herbies Seeds idk what this is but it looks like.It's gonna be good either way.. God bless him happy growing ✌️

So this was quite the week...I was looking over our set up, and making sure Grandma has everything she needs when she says "it seems to me that we need a vegetation cabinet." Turns out she had all the supplies too. Cracked me up...so I ended up building a nice little veg / drying cabinet. You'll see it in the second Meph run diary, was too busy to get some shots today. 😅 She doubled in size from last week, super happy with the progress. She's under a combo of flouro and LED in the new cabinet and LOVING it. Started ramping in nutrients slow and steady, keeping the c02 around 600-800ppm while I finish up the environmental control in the new cabinet. I realized that Mephy, might be a flight risk...so I made her a pen. 😂 ...also removed any confusion on her breed. Yeah, I nerded out a little. #prusagang #piggydankfarms Hope everyone had a great week, and all the competition ladies are stellar! Until next week...time to go play on the farm. ✌️🌱

02/07/2026 A new week and I believe we are starting the pre-flower stretch... Maybe. I'll ve leaving the nutrients alone for some of the week. I need to make sure she's in stretch or not before I change out my nutrients. She's already got white pistils and is 14" tall. That's 5" in a week. Not too shabby. Now if we can get an inch or 2 a day from here on out, I'll be very happy. Once I know the stretch is in motion, I think that's when I start changing out the nutrients. Like bud if itor and big bud. Oh and bud factor x. These all go in on week 5. Which should be this week, BUT I started the veg cycle early. So it's really a week behind. In that regard, I should be keeping the same mix as last week. So I'll compromise and change the water out when I know we are stretching. I snipped the main stem fan leaves as well. It was definitely a good idea. Now the branches have space to grow and not be impeded by massive fan leaves bigger than my hand. I left the very top two fan leaves as I like to do. I feel like the leaves are too new to snip off. Once the node gets a little bit older, I'll snip them off as I go. Speaking of nodes, she has 8 and is working on 9. But then I think that's it. From here on out, she'll be stretching the main cola. I have to figure out a way to tie the top down so the rest of the branches can catch up. I hand bend it, but not enough. I would need to be in the tent like 4 times a day. Not that I mind, but like 4 times messing with the environment will be a pain. The heater is overheating as it is. I'm gonna have to swap it out. Not sure how it's overheating. It should be on like 4. But then again. It's 1° f outside today. Wind chill is -17° f. So maybe it's trying to compensate. But it's like 70° f in the apartment. Outdoors can't play that big of a role, surely. Anyway, on top of popping some leaves off, I cleared out the small bit of growth under the canopy. The goal for this run is to properly defoliate and prune an autoflower. Only keep the top 2/3 of the plant. It won't be very hard to be selective with this plant. Everything is so very uniform. Something that's pretty cool is all the bud clipped branches are starting to grow at the same time and seems to be the same pace. This should level out the canopy to table top flatness. The only thing that will bother me is the top. Considering the fact that I couldn't tie her down, her top buds will be bigger than the canopy buds. Which is ok, but I want a sea of buds, not a nipple. We'll see how it turns out. Maybe if I hand train the top down, for a couple days, the branches will start to catch up. So I'm still considering the trellis net. I'm not sure though. I do have an air pump specifically for this purpose, but like how the hell am I gonna clean the bucket out weekly? There's just no way. None that I can think of. I mean I could slide the roots to another bucket for the time being, but how will I remove the bucket without lifting the plant? I don't know. Well, water pump it is I guess. That's only if I use the trellis net. Very possible. However, her branches are super strong and will definitely be able to handle heavy buds. And lots of them. The environment is looking good today. Happily it's stable, it at the cost of an overheating heater. 02/08/2026 Looking good today! I believe she has started the pre -flower stretch. She sucked down a little under a gallon in 2 days. So that's good. I'll be changing the water out tomorrow for some fresh nutrients. I think I'm supposed to start the transition from grow nutes to bloom nutes as well. I can't remember if it's before or after the stretch. I'm thinking after? I need to research this. After a bit of research, it seems bloom nutes start after the stretch. So maybe I won't be changing the water after all tomorrow. Who knows. I must research more. Other than that, she is a beautiful plant. Stretching out her side branches almost enough for me to be able to bud clip them. Currently they are long and thin and already leaning out, so no sense in training them yet. I'll wait for them to start really stretching. Then I'll do some more training, maybe. We'll see. What I've done so far might be enough. The goal is to fill half the tent. Front to back. Then the other plant does the same thing and I have a full tent. They have to stay a little thin and less wide though so they don't encroach on the others space. The humidity and temp are just wrong. The AI doesn't seem to get the fact that less is more. Oh well. It's pretty decent. 02/09/2026 Omg she is looking great! 16" now and just started the stretch. Beautiful greens and super thick stem. The branches aren't as thick as the blue dream in the tent, but they are definitely thick and sturdy. A little easier to bend too. But the internodal spacing on the branches is too short to fit clips in. So I'm going to wait until the stretch really gets underway. Auxiliary branches are starting to get pretty long too. But they're already horizontal, so no sense in bending them. Well, yet anyway. They'll start lift up soon enough. I might have to raise the light soon. It's 17" from the canopy. I want it higher and brighter. I'll probably wait for 15" then raise it back up to 22" and increase the intensity to probably 6 or 7. We'll see. Currently the DLI is 38 mol. I'd say perfect for this age. Very close to 40 but not there quite yet. Perfect. The environment looks alright now. I attached the hose to the humidifier so now it's dropping from above and is much more stable. Once I lift the light up higher, I'll feel much more comfortable. The fog is really close to the light. 02/10/2026 Well today is the day. I think. So I noticed the tips of the top growth starting to turn yellow. Definitely a deficiency. I'm guessing nitrogen given the need for it during the stretch. But what I'm going to do is increase the nutrients from 2.5 ml per gallon to 1 ml per liter. There's 15 liters, so it's half of what the recommended dose is. It should be fine. Readings after water change. pH: 5.8 EC: 880 TDS: 442 Temp: 64.4° This might not be enough nutrients. But we'll see for now. 02/11/2026 So I'm pretty sure I screwed up again. The water temp was definitely higher than 70° this morning because I forgot to add an ice bottle last night. So naturally there were bubbles all over the place. Like big bubble foam. Not sure if that's good or bad. But if it's bad, that's what Hydrogaurd is for. We'll see what happens now that I got the water to cool down. On a better note, she's still growing strong. Leaves are getting bigger, she's stretching and branches are making more branches. Lol. The environment seems pretty good now. No issues with the equipment specifically the heater. I raised the light yesterday and increased the power to match. Now the DLI is at 39 mol. Just under 40. I'll bring it over 40 after the stretch. I have CO2 in the tent, so I could go up to 45 mol if not 50 mol. But I'm gonna keep it at 40, maybe a little higher. It all depends on what she wants. I can definitely increase the intensity. Just don't want to risk light stress. On a better note, I have tons of space for this plant to grow. Like a good 3 ft. of space. So she can grow a good 4 ft tall and still not take over the tent. Well, no true. If she ends up being that big she will most certainly take over the tent. Let's hope the Blue Dream can hold her own. Anyway, I don't really expect a 4 ft plant. I'll be happy with 3 ft. As long as it has colas for days, I'm happy. Plus, height doesn't really matter in tents. It's width that matters. How many tops can one make in a limited space. Spread the plant out keeping a low profile. That way all the buds get light and not a select few that would otherwise be over the canopy. For example, this plant is going to be tall with a lower canopy and one main cola. I didn't really want this structure, but I don't have any tie downs. And the top won't grow a long enough node that's thin enough to bend. So I can't even use the bud clips. And now the side branches are building a lot of nodes and none are spaced out enough to use a bud clip on. Well, it doesn't really matter anyway. All the side and auxiliary branches are growing outward and not up, Soni don't need to train those down. Honestly, this would have been the perfect opportunity to learn how to top. But that bus went by a long time ago. 02/12/2026 So I topped her off today. Current dose. What's weird is that the water is still lower than when I did the new mix. It's only been 2 days. I'm wondering if I should be adding more to the mix to bring it back up to 450 ppm. The pH is fine now. It was a little high, but now it's back down to 6.2. The EC and TDS are way low. Like 800 cm and 396 ppm. I'm pretty sure I want to be around 900 cm and 450 to 500 ppm. Not too sure though. She seems to be a light feeder. Not complaining. Less nutrients to use. So now I'm wondering if I need to add more to the mix. Like 5 ml more of bloom and 2.5 of everything else except for Silica Blast and Hydrogaurd. Those are already at the normal dose. Maybe I just need more cal/mag? I'm not sure. I also wonder why the mix I'm using now is lighter than what I used before. It was 450. Should t it be the same 450 that it was before? Very confused. 02/13/2026 Friday the 13th! What a fun day. She got big. Explosive growth. It seems she hasn't started to stretch up yet. But she's definitely getting wide. I want her tall though. She should get taller soon. I don't mind a short plant, but she doesn't have enough nodes for my liking. Not enough bud sites. If she had like super short internodal spacing, I wouldn't be too worried, but she doesn't. Lol. Long spacing. So she definitely has some growing to go. No top off needed today. I did swap out the ice bottles. It wasn't that warm either, so I think I'm keeping the temp down all together. Technically, the water temp shouldn't be a problem at night and in the morning. But I can understand the heat turning on full blast during lights on. Now if I were a waking man, I'd be awake at 6 am to swap the bottles out. But I'm not. I sleep to like 8:30. Lol. The environment is looking pretty good. No complaints here. This is the last week of veg I think. Maybe not? I don't know where to place the pre flower stretch. Considering the name is Pre-flower, I'd say it's not flower, but it's not really veg. Well shit. I'll figure it out. Readings: pH: 5.8 EC: 700 TDS: 349 Temp: 66.7°

Cant wait till flush to see em purp OUT OR BLACK OUT 💜🖤🎩🌈🍬

Ambers came in quickly overnight. So i decided to chop her. She looks good and smells great. A fresh sweet lemony scent. Overal happy with how she turned out. Cant wait to smoke her. 4/4: all trimmed and in grove bags.

Another mostly positive week completed. Pests firmly at bay. Environment humidity looking good and all the buds are getting bigger. Top dressed some nutrients / insect frass earlier in the week which I’m sure was a week or so late. - Heidi looking very hungry by D57 - the whole plant is looking yellow. Solution to problem is some organic liquid nutes which arrived today from now as needed. Overall they and the other 2 ladies in the tent are looking a zillion times better than my first grow. Starting to feel the harvest impatience kick in. Will try to overcome this time Thanks for reading have a great week 😊

Week 2 —— Wednesday: Day 8 —- Started blues main nutrient feeding. She seem to be loving life at the moment. Getting bigger by the day. Run off:30% Run off ph: 6.1 Run off EC 2.4 I believe the run off ec is so high is because the coco mix I used is pre blended with charge. The reason I think this is today feed was the highest EC I’ve done and that was 1.5 EC. —- Day 9 —- Increased her base nutrients by .5ml/l it added an extra 0.3 ec that yesterday feed, but the sound of the medium Snap crackle and popping it quite relaxing. Is this the zen water at work? Final EC: 1.8 Run Off: 27% Run Off PH: 6.0 Run Off EC: Still way over what it mean to be but it’s going down, I still believe it’s too do with Ecothrive Charge being in the coco already. Blue looking very healthy even tho the high ec run off. —- Day 10 —- Feed: 900ml PH: 5.8 EC: 2.0 Run Off: 275ml Run Off %: 27 NOTES: Looking healthy as usual. —- Day 11 — Feed: 900ml PH: 5.7 EC: 1.8 - Run Off Amount: 220ml %: 24 Ph 6.4 Notes: All is well in the garden this morning. Still trying to bring the run off ph down to 5.8 during veg. Still the ec of the run off is still stupid, read somewhere re top dress on week 4, which I’m not as not using charge. So touchwood it would of sorted itself out. Blue look like she enjoying the feed mind. —- Day 12 —- Just the same as yesterday just bigger. Today going to start to research how to lst etc and to see if can find out what EC charge is at. —- Day 13 — Feed: 1l PH: 5.7 EC: 2.0 Note: Thought today was the best time to start to use my base nutrients at full dose. Not much new to report but starting to enjoy waking up just to see how much she has grow. She has started to lean one side so I have proped her up with a plant label stick. —- Day 14 — Water: 2L PH: 5.8 EC: 2.0 Notes: Seem to be enjoying the nutrients. She looks very healthy. Roll of week 3 as think maybe to start of her lst training

Day 63 - Niagara got cut down today, she has a very strong smell & right buds can’t waif to see how she smokes! Will be doing a harvest post once she is dry! I also decided to let the Rock Machine & Doctors choice #1 go another week or two

Fat girl 💙 i used "Flower Fuel" nutrient 3 times Throughout lifetimes
