Day 10 of flower. They are both thriving and already starting on their flowers. I would have liked to of vegged them a bit longer but they were germinated 10day after other plants in the tent that were more than ready to flip. The Alien Icicle is a more squat pheno and needed a little boost.

- DAY 50 (23/07) I will show you the rust-colored burns that occurred from the first feeding with Micro-Grow-Bloom. Everything that I will do relevant in the days of this week I will update it here in Week Comment. I am open to advice, I would be happy if you comment with what you would do in my place. - DAY 52 (25/07) FEEDING I thought of irrigating with some Root Juice to give a little help to the roots, because has grown slowly, I don’t know why. I irrigated 2 liter of water with: - 4ml Root Juice Solution PH: range 6.6/6.9 - DAY 54 (27/07) HELP It's been 13 days since I last fed with the PH Perfect trio of Advanced Nutrients. I need your help to figure out how to get back to feeding. From today I will water with more water to make sure that the roots and the soil are better cleaned by letting the water flow out of the pot. (until now no water flowed into the saucer). I uploaded the photos and video with the rust-colored burns on the older leaves that showed up after first feeding with Micro, Grow and Bloom, and they were accentuated after feeding for the second time. Watering with water alone (and citric acid to correct the PH) does not seem to present any problems. I immediately thought it was an excess of potassium, considering that I have fed 2 times with Micro (2-0-0), Grow (1-0-4) and Bloom (1-3-4) 0.5ml each, this NPK ratio should be around 2-1.5-4. I thought about adjusting the doses in order to increase nitrogen to keep it higher than potassium, and lower potassium while still keeping it higher than phosphorus. Could it be a resolution to my problem? I also thought that it could be an excess of calcium present in Micro (it has 2.4% of calcium and 0.1% of magnesium soluble in water) because according to the analysis of my tap water it seems to already have enough calcium (110 mg/l of calcium. 21mg/l of magnesium) and here arises my fear of increasing the dose of Micro to increase nitrogen and continually encounter excess calcium. Can anyone enlighten me? - DAY 55 (28/07) SLIGHT DEFOLIATION I made a slight defoliation at the bottom. To be precise I removed 2 medium-small leaves and I removed the two smaller popcorn sprigs at the bottom of everything. I sprayed the usual mix of neem oil. (neem oil, water, potassium soap and lemon juice) - DAY 56 (29/07) LST We are at the end of the week. I performed 4-way style LST. Day/night air temperature on average for this week: Day 31-33 °C. Night 22-26 °C.

Have been away for 3 weeks. No change in height but the buds have thickened and it very much smells of lemonade. The buds have also darkened a lot. Zoomed in on the trichomes and I'd say 2 weeks to go, but I've got that wrong with every grow!

Not a great selection. Low yield. Hopefully it will taste and smoke great as it looks.

Began flushing her midway through week 8, buds aren't as full as I had liked but have struggled with rising EC levels during the whole grow which I will put down to being caused by an excessive defoliation at week 4 of flower that took too long to recover from.

She's getting chopped tonight/tomo. Finally! Let's goo!

Leider musste ich mich von einer Lemon O.G. verabschieden. Hermi von unten bis oben in so gut wie jeder Bud. shit happens. 🤷‍♂️

❄️Après 53 jours de floraison j'ai récolté 2 plantes de kong's krush qui m'ont donné 41 grammes de bourgeons sec et manucurées. ❄️Je pense que j'aurais pu ajouter + de nutriment dans mon sol et arrosé plus fréquemment pour avoir un plus gros butin, c'est prévu pour la prochaine culture ! ❄️Je commence à gouter mes bourgeons qui sont encore en train de curer depuis 5 semaines. ❄️Chaque variétés ont des saveur particulière et j'ai toujours ça trouvé assez complexe de les décrire. En tout cas La saveur de la kong's krush est vraiment inédite pour moi et vraiment plaisante. Je lui trouve un petit coté pétillant,☄️ ❄️ ❄️Mon instagram : https://www.instagram.com/hou_stone420/ ❄️ ❄️Passez une bonne journée mes amis, Merci pour votre visite 🙌 ☄️☄️☄️☄️☄️☄️☄️☄️☄️☄️☄️☄️☄️☄️☄️☄️

They are all showing preflower and chugging along nicely.

Day 40 ( 3 in flower) : These girls are amazing and deserve some star status for their growing ability. From the off these girls have given full attention to their growth , even the 2 girls that were suffering under the intensity of the lights ( moved to 24 "now.) It gave 2 of them tip curl like too much Nitrogen does so had me head scratching on the new Mega crop and dosages. Now figured they are continuing to outgrow most of the other strains running. They have been easy to work with on their lst and pin down and far extend the pots edges. #1 The living organic girl is loving her spot in the room and paying me back in her spurts of growth. # needs a little thinning out but happy .#3 Is a willing bush in the making but a good defol will open her up.

💙 Project Blue Tent – Week 6 Blue Waffle F1 – Pheno B (Folder 13B) Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of Project Blue Tent. If you're joining the adventure for the first time, welcome! This project follows four individual Blue Waffle F1 plants from Zamnesia, all growing inside exactly the same environment, under the same lighting, receiving the same nutrition and following the same training schedule. Everything is identical. The only difference is the seed itself. That's what makes this project so interesting. Watching genetically stable F1 plants develop their own subtle personalities while removing as many environmental variables as possible allows us to really appreciate both their consistency and their individuality. Today we're checking in with Plant B. ──────────────────────── 🌱 Week Six – Building the Canopy Another fantastic week has passed inside the Blue Tent, and Plant B continues proving why I'm becoming such a fan of these Blue Waffle F1 genetics. After installing the SCROG net last week, the objective has completely changed. We're no longer trying to grow taller plants. Now we're growing sideways. Since tightening the SCROG net, all four plants are sitting at roughly the same height—around 60 cm—as the branches are continuously guided beneath the screen instead of being allowed to grow vertically. Every day I spend a few minutes gently tucking the tallest branches back underneath the net. As soon as one shoot rises above the canopy, it's carefully guided into the next square, allowing another branch to catch up. It's a slow process. But it's also one of the most satisfying parts of growing. The reward comes later, when every flowering site receives nearly identical light intensity across the entire canopy. Plant B has responded beautifully. She's steadily filling her section of the tent and showing exactly the kind of structure I was hoping for. ──────────────────────── 🌿 A Stable F1 Showing Her Strength One thing becoming increasingly obvious is just how stable these F1 genetics really are. Although each plant has its own small personality, all four sisters are developing remarkably similarly. The structure... The vigour... The colour... The response to feeding... Everything is wonderfully consistent. Plant B has maintained her compact, organised architecture while expanding nicely across the screen. The rich green colour has fully returned after increasing the nutrient strength a couple of weeks ago, and the new growth is healthy, vibrant and full of energy. Looking across the tent now, it's honestly difficult not to smile. The girls simply look happy. ──────────────────────── 🌡️ Blue Tent Environment The environment has remained very stable once again despite the summer heat outside. This week's average conditions were: • Day Temperature: 30°C • Night Temperature: 25°C • Relative Humidity: 58% • pH: 5.8 • EC: 1.92 mS/cm • CO₂: approximately 450 ppm • Light Schedule: 18/6 • Irrigation: 1.2 litres per plant per day The warm nights are something I'll be keeping an eye on once flowering begins, as higher night temperatures can encourage a little extra stretch during the first weeks after the flip. That's tomorrow's problem though. Today our only objective is filling every square of that SCROG. ──────────────────────── 🥥 Feeding & Irrigation Nothing changes this week because the plants have given me absolutely no reason to change anything. The feeding schedule remains: • Plagron Hydro A — 1.9 ml/L • Plagron Hydro B — 1.9 ml/L • Plagron Hydro Roots — 1 ml/L With only small pH adjustments whenever required. Some growers may look at an EC of 1.92 and think it's relatively high. My plants disagree. Their colour is rich. The leaves are praying. Growth is vigorous. The stems continue thickening every day. Plants don't care what feeding chart someone else follows. They care whether their own needs are being met. These girls have made their opinion very clear. ──────────────────────── 💧 Drip Irrigation & Automatic Drainage The Mars Hydro drip irrigation system continues making life wonderfully easy. Each plant receives approximately 1.2 litres of nutrient solution every day, delivered slowly and evenly through individual drippers positioned above each grow bag. Once the nutrient solution has passed through the coco, the runoff is automatically collected and removed by the drainage system installed beneath the pots. Together these two systems create an incredibly consistent root environment while removing much of the daily workload that normally comes with coco growing. Instead of carrying watering cans... I get to spend my time watching plants. That's a trade I'll happily make every day. ──────────────────────── 🐛 The Caterpillar Who Chose The Wrong Plant Every garden eventually reminds us that nature always finds a way. This week, Plant B became the only sister to receive an unexpected visitor. Somehow a tiny caterpillar managed to hitchhike its way from my vegetable garden into the Blue Tent and decided that Plant B's beautiful leaves looked particularly delicious. I have to admit... She must have looked especially healthy if even the caterpillar couldn't resist having a taste! Fortunately, regular daily inspections meant the damage was caught almost immediately. The caterpillar was removed by hand, the affected leaves were carefully trimmed away, and the problem never had an opportunity to develop into anything more serious. It also served as a perfect reminder that no matter how careful we are—and I always shower, change clothes and enter the grow room as clean as possible—nature can still surprise us from time to time. Clean habits reduce risk. Regular observation eliminates it. ──────────────────────── 🛡️ Integrated Pest Management Following the discovery, the entire tent received a thorough IPM (Integrated Pest Management) inspection. IPM isn't about waiting until pests become a problem. It's about combining good hygiene, regular inspections and preventative practices so problems are found while they're still tiny. As an additional precaution, I also used the Future of Grow UVC LED bar. Used correctly, UVC light can help reduce unwanted spores and microorganisms that may have entered the grow room, making it another useful preventative tool within an overall IPM strategy. It's important to mention that UVC should always be handled carefully. Direct exposure can damage both plants and skin, so eye protection and proper safety procedures are essential whenever using this type of equipment. Thankfully... One hungry caterpillar became nothing more than a short interruption to an otherwise fantastic week. ──────────────────────── 🌿 Plant B Herself Plant B continues becoming one of the easiest plants to train inside the tent. Her branches remain flexible, her internodal spacing is excellent and she seems perfectly happy being guided beneath the SCROG every single day. She's not racing ahead. She's building a beautifully organised framework that should become an outstanding flowering canopy once the time comes. Every week she seems a little fuller. Every week she looks a little stronger. And every week these Blue Waffle genetics impress me a little more. ──────────────────────── 👀 Looking Ahead If everything continues progressing at this pace, I expect the screen to be almost completely filled by next week. Once that happens, the next major milestone will be a final clean-up and defoliation before flipping the Blue Tent into flower. Until then the routine stays wonderfully simple. Guide the branches. Maintain the environment. Keep the roots happy. Trust the process. Nature already knows what she's doing. We're simply helping her do it a little more efficiently. ──────────────────────── 💙 Thank You A huge thank you to Zamnesia for making Project Blue Tent possible, from these incredibly stable Blue Waffle F1 genetics to the complete ecosystem surrounding this grow. A heartfelt thank you to Plagron for providing the Premium Coco Growbags together with the Hydro nutrient line that continues producing beautiful, healthy growth week after week. A special thank you to Mars Hydro for the automatic drip irrigation and drainage system that has transformed daily watering into an almost effortless routine. A huge thank you as well to Future of Grow for the UVC LED bar, which has now become another valuable tool in my preventative IPM routine. Thank you to GrowDiaries for providing this amazing platform where growers from around the world can learn from one another, share experiences and document our journeys. And finally... Thank you to every single one of you following Project Blue Tent. Whether you've been here since germination, recently joined the adventure, leave comments every week or simply enjoy looking through the photos, your support genuinely means the world to me. Hopefully next week the screen will be completely filled, we'll perform our final defoliation and begin preparing these beautiful ladies for the next exciting chapter... Flowering. Until next week... Growers Love, happy growing, and I'll see you all soon. 🌱💙

Acapulco Gold has been forming some promising looking buds 👌 I have had to increase waterings this week as the plant is becoming increasingly thirsty. The branches are very heavy for the plant now, and they're beginning to buckle under the weight, so I might have to stake the plant. Because it's got so big now. I turn the plant round each day to evenly distribute light. It's become difficult due to the bendyness of the plant now, so I have to be very careful now whenever I move it. The plant has done really well this week, actually, and hopefully, we can be done in the next few weeks, which would be great. This has been the fastest and biggest plant I have grown yet. I'm very impressed. I have increased the waterings and am trying to give correct nutrients. However, I am also using Ecothrive dry amendments as always, and because of this, I don't know how many nutrients to add. The plant is so big now, I don't think I am feeding enough. If you have any ideas or suggestions, I'd appreciate it. Leave it in the comments 😁 I am having trouble assessing the nutrient requirements as the plant has always been a light green, but it is really beginning to go yellow. Here is what I did this week. 12.9.25 I top dressed the plant with Ecothrive dry amendments. The following amounts were used for this 8 Gallon pot; 💚1 TBSP Ecothrive Life Cycle 💚1 TBSP Ecothrive Bloom 💚 2 TBSP Diatomaceous Earth Here is what I did this week. 12.9.25: I watered the top dress in, with 6.5L of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.0 with; 💜 2 TSP Sea K 💜 2 TSP Biosys 💜 8ml Trace PH: 6.0 PPM: 597 13.9.25: I watered with 2L of dechlorinated water PH'd to 5.9 with; 💜 .5 TSP Bud Explosion PH: 5.9 PPM: 678 15.9.25: I watered with 6.5L of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.1 with; 💜 1 TSP Bud Explosion 💜 1 TSP Sea K 💜 8ml Trace 💜 1 TSP Biosys PH: 6.1 PPM: 685 16.9.25: I watered with 4L of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4 With; 💜 7ml Trace 💜 2 TSP Sea K PH: 6.4 PPM: 552 The fungus gnats have really increased since I did a watering of the whole tent. I have some more sticky traps set out, and I will not water for several days. Once it has dried the top soil, I will add some more Diatomaceous Earth to the top 5cm. Thanks very much for checking out my diary this week and for hanging out in the comments. Advice or encouragement is appreciated. It's been a fun week! 😁💚🤞🌱👌🧡

Big phatty is healthy as and ready to flip into flower, defoliating on the reg and spreading her out some more . Here comes the stretch

📆 Semana 10 Las dos A5 Chaze siguen avanzando sin rastro de hongos y con la humedad completamente controlada. La planta que perdió su punta principal concentra ahora toda la energía en las secundarias, que se están compactando más, ganando resina y mostrando un brillo más marcado. La otra, que mantiene su punta principal, desarrolla una cola dominante muy firme, densa y con ese aspecto clásico de Haze bien llevada. En ambas plantas los pistilos se van cerrando y el color se intensifica. Los tricomas muestran mayoría lechosa con los primeros toques cálidos en las zonas más expuestas, señal de maduración activa. El aroma sube otro punto: terroso, madera seca y especia fina, cada vez más profundo. La ventilación y los riegos están en su punto, aportando estabilidad sin forzar nada en este tramo final. 🌼 Semana de afinado: densidad, resina y aroma consolidándose en cada estructura según su forma. ¡Seguimos creciendo fuerte 💪!

first week in flower will defoliate week after all plants look real good lolipopped and cleaned
