Cut the plants down on the 24th of April, drying room levels are 72°F and around 60%RH, I'm currently on Day #14 of drying and the buds don't feel fully dry yet, the main tops feel crunchy and dry but the lower smaller buds are still quite moist and smell like chlorophyll, I think I may harvest the main tops so I don't overdry and leave the rest in the tent for another few days, either that or put the rest of the buds in a brown paper bag to finish drying. Finished dry trimming the plant ended up with 200 grams dry weight not including trim there's another 2 ounces of trim which if you want to include that would bring the total weight from this 250W LED to 256 grams. I'm super happy with the result of this especially for my first grow and from one autoflower, it can only get better from here on out. FYI Not sure why I can't edit the lights I used but the bloomgro 600W LED is PULLING AN ACTUAL 250W FROM THE WALL so the gram/watt should be .8g/W

Paramahansa Yogananda taught us how to heal anxiety and depression with these three powerful affirmations from his book back in 1924: "I relax and cast aside all mental burdens, allowing god to express through me his perfect love, peace, and wisdom." "I will, with my own will, which flows from the divine will, be calm and patient under all circumstances." "I am submerged in eternal light; it permeates every particle of my being. I am living in that light, the divine spirit fills me within and without." Most of what has ever been invented was first observed. The critical role of observation in the innovation process is where natural phenomena, patterns, or accidents provide the foundational idea for a new creation. Many foundational technologies were derived from direct observation of nature or physical processes. Wave-particle duality is a fundamental concept in quantum mechanics, stating that all entities—including light (waves) and matter (particles)—exhibit both wave-like and particle-like properties depending on the experimental setup. The Heisenberg observer effect describes how the act of measuring or observing a quantum system inevitably disturbs it, altering its state. The observer effect is often misconstrued to mean that human "consciousness" affects reality; however, in physics, it refers to the physical interaction of measurement tools (detectors) with the system. It is often confused with the, but distinct from, the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle. The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle applied to electromagnetism dictates that the electric (E) and magnetic (H) fields cannot be simultaneously measured with absolute precision, with an uncertainty relation of for a spatial volume. This fundamental limit means electromagnetic waves possess intrinsic quantum, non-classical, and fluctuating natures. The K radiation and quantum mystery of potassium refers to the fascinating, naturally occurring radioactivity of Potassium-40 (K) and the, until recently, poorly understood, rare quantum decay mechanisms that make it a significant, quiet, and sometimes mysterious participant in both biological and geological processes. The Radiation: Potassium-K40 While potassium is essential for life, a tiny fraction of all natural potassium (0.017%) of all pottasium is the radioactive isotope K40. With a half-life of 1.25 billion years, it is a "primordial" radionuclide (present since the Earth's formation). Because potassium is abundant in the human body (muscles), we are all walking sources of weak radiation, often measured by "banana equivalent dose." K is unique because it decays via three distinct routes, creating a "triple" radioactive mystery: Beta Decay (89.6%): Decays into Calcium-40 (Ca), releasing a fast electron (beta particle). Electron Capture (EC) (10.3%): Decays into Argon-40, emitting a high-energy 1.46 MeV Gamma Ray. Positron Emission (0.001%): Decays into Argon-40 (Ar), emitting a positron (antimatter). The mystery of potassium isn't just that it is radioactive; it's how it decays and what that implies for the universe. The Missing Decay Pathway (KDK Experiment). Until very recently, one specific path—electron capture directly to the ground state of Argon-40—had never been directly measured, making it an "unknown background" in dark matter searches. The KDK Collaboration (Potassium Decay): Experiments at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (2017-2023) finally measured this, helping scientists refine the age of the Earth and improving precision for detector simulations in particle physics. The "Spin-Forbidden" Long Life K has a surprisingly long half-life (billion years) for a positron emitter. The "Mysterious" Heat Source For decades. Quantum Biology/Biology Mystery. Ultracold Potassium and Quantum Gases. In short, the potassium 40 isotope is a tiny, ancient, quantum-mechanical time (nuclear)bomb, slowly releasing energy from the birth of the solar system, making it essential for geological dating, a nuisance for dark-matter hunters, and a subtle factor in our own biology. All things exist as energy. We are vessels that utilize chemical energy and experience it through emotions. We are biological machines fueled by ATP (adenosine triphosphate). Emotions, e-motion, energy in motion, where you apply your thoughts, words, and action, is where you apply your energy, where focus goes, energy flows.

Here we go 😊 Planning & germination 👍 I´m really looking forward to this run, the SpectrumX from Medicgrow with build in PPFD, 4 spectrums V1, F1, VS, FS and 880 Watt is definitely serious business 👊 Trying out a new soil in this grow. The plant mulch is an exclusive mixture of harped mulch, nutrient-rich natural fertiliser, hill sand and long-term matured compost. The mixture provides a porous and airy structure, which ensures that both water and nutrients are easily accessible to the plant's roots. Stay tuned and Keep it green 😎

Day 1 FLOWER First day flower!!!! Already showing two pistols in some junctions after only first 12 hours of darkness. First grow did that, second grow did not. Not sure what’s different. New reservoir change; 40 grams Calcium Nitrate 33 grams Jack’s Hydro 30 grams Magnesium Sulphate 100mL growth enhancer 100mL Fulvic 50 mL Humic 100mL H2O2 EC 1300 PH was 6.2 and headed higher, added PH down. I made a little mistake with the res change, I forgot to chill my 100 liters of fresh RO to 63F before introducing it... it came in contact with roots at about 75F. Hope I didn’t shock the plant with that move and everything is fine. Ive added 8 16w LED T8’s wired in parallel for some inside canopy illumination. I don’t expect it to do much but just wanted something with zero heat output. Might figure something better out or even move them up to next scrog net due to expectation of massive stretching. Side note! I want to purchase a third HLG light to fit nicely between the 550V’s... a 2 panel 300 watt version of the same R2 type for a total of 1270 true watts. (Just waiting for a discount code). New light will be up this grow for sure, stay tuned for that! The right plant is yet again much taller than it should be. I was pretty busy with work lately so they have sat in bloom tent on veg hours for 2 weeks... Hopefully they don’t stretch tooooo much. Day 2 Added 21 Liters RO and pH down pH 6.5 to 5.8 PPM 1180 Day 3 Added pH up pH 5.2 to 5.8 Day 4 Added 23 liters of RO 30 gram calcium nitrate 22 gram Jacks 12 mag sulph 150 mL H2O2 ph 5.7 PPM 1380 Day 5 Added 40 liters of water 30 cal nit 20 jacks 10 mag sulph pH 6.2 PPM 1340 Day 6

Bonjour à tous les padawans et maîtres jedis Tout d'abord merci à greenhouse de me permettre de faire cette culture en m'offrant le feeding greenhouse et des graines Je rappelle que cultive simultanément 9 pots de 10 et 11 litres dans une box prévu pour 4 et que je n'utilise que le strict minimum du matériel nécessaire à une culture correcte au prix le plus bas possible MATÉRIEL CONFIGURATION Box 80×80×160 Lampe led Lampwin 300 watts ×2 Ventilateur à pince 15 watts Xiaomi Deerma humidificateurs 5L Hygrometre thermomètre Extracteur PROFAN 107 m3/h - 100 Prise programmable électronique ×2 1 pot carré noir 10 litres Green house feeding enhancer Green house feeding biobloom Green house feeding biogrow Substrat biobizz ligthmix Fil de fer et pince coupante Microscope Petite balance de précision CULTURE ÉTAPE PAR ÉTAPE J'ai tout dabord fais germé ma graine avec le easy start de Royal queen seed et je suis agréablement surpris car franchement le taux de réussite est très élevé (17 graines sur 19) simple d'utilisation et très efficace. Une fois la plantule sortie et d'une hauteur de 2 ou 3 centimètres je la prend délicatement et la place directement dans son pot définitif. Je préconise des pots allant entre 10 litres et 15 litres pour des autofloraisons cultivées en intérieur. Le pot aura été préalablement préparé (video dans diarie) avec 30 grammes d'engrais greenhouse feeding biobloom et 30 grammes de greenhouse feeding biogrow, soit l'équivalent de 3 grammes par litre de substrat. Je dépose donc la plantule dans son pot définitif je recouvre un peu de avec de la terre je tasse légèrement et j'arrose pour garder le substrat humide pas plus Je place ma lampe led 300watts à environ 90 centimètres de la plantule avec un cycle de lumière de 24/24 pendant une semaine. Au début de la semaine 2 le cycle de lumière passera en 20/4 grace a un programmateur car c'est pour moi le cycle de lumière qui offre le meilleur rendement pour une autofloraison. Jour1: léger arrosage Jour2: léger arrosage Jour3: la plantule commence à être plus vigoureuse mise en place de la ventilation pour augmenter sa masse racinaire et léger arrosage Jour4: arrosage avec un litre et demi d'eau ph6.3 à laquelle j'ai ajouté 0.9 gramme de greenhouse feeding enhancer (soit 0.6 gramme par litre d'eau) Jour5: aucune technique spéciale Jour6: aucune technique spéciale Semaine agréablement calme sans problème ni carence apparente Que la force soit avec vous !

The time is finally here to post the harvest. I waited till it was all done and dry before updating the dairy so will add in the dry weights next on the 2nd half of the harvest entry. I enjoyed this plant a lot, its grew well and loved how it was shorter and fatter. I wonder if it was at the dame distance from the plant if It could have done even more. Had some issues with the yellowing that was happening on the other plant in this tent. I should have treated this faster with a flush but was super reluctant and it may have hurt the yields a bit. The top best looking buds looked and smelled amazing even the lower buds where doing well not so larfy like the other plant. There was crazy strong smells with this plant, sour berries and hints of lemon, it was a best smelling plant I have grown to date. This would be a great plant to grow for beginners, cant take a lot of stress and still produces quite well and even on lower wattage leds it was good. It was not the most crystally looking plant, not like the maltezerz but still had some finger hash buildup but a small amount. I feel this plant would be a winner for a rosin press. I don't plan on growing this strain out again despite me liking a lot of qualities about it. I'm only trying to grow cbd dominate plants is the main reason. If my friends really like this I have some clones so can always give them some. Speaking of clones they are doing well outside, greened up a lot and showing signs of revegging. Took some photos of the weed hang drying on day 1 in the tent and a week later to show how much they shrink. Only some of the lower growth is larfy, will make good edibles or hash, that will be a fun project to do and may include that in my projects diary. That's about all I can think of if you have any questions just ask. m0use Disclaimers: 1. I have divided the total watts of light in half, 300w(150w) for this diary. It will accurately reflect the g/w ratio as the two plants growing in this tent are listed in two separate diaries. 2. I include any shake/trim in my gross totals as I use them to make edibles. 3. I did not follow any proper ways of listing my nutrients. Some are ml/l of total solution watered, others ml/l of total medium and some are just the total amounts I added, not as a ratio.

I converted the cents into dollar amounts beforehand to avoid dividing by 100. 8.2c/h = 0.082$/h 438h * 0.17c/kwh = $74.46kw * 0.15kw = $11.17 on peak 522h * 0.113c/kwh = $58.99kw *0.15kw = $8.85 mid peak 1,272h * 0.082c/kwh = $104.30kw *0.15kw = $15.65 off peak The "h" hours and "kw" kilowatts cancel out and we are left with a value of $ dollars per peak period, add all the peak periods up and you get your total cost of running the lights in dollars. $11.17 + $8.85 + $15.65 = $35.67 for the grow light only. My light grew for 20 weeks and 4 days, or 144 days. almost 21 weeks total. $35.67 / 144d = 0.2477$/d average of about 25c a day in electricity 337.2kw for the entire grow. Using the regular calculation of grams harvested divided by watts used is not accurate to me, it does not account for all the time the lamps are on, the length of grow to the over all cost. The calculation that makes sense to me is this, harvested dry weight of usable cannabis buds/trim/keif/whatever in grams divided by total kw used. Could also combine it with grams per total single use costs “anything you used only for this grow and wont reuse in the next, or fractions of multi use items like fertilizers if they ½ full” and see how much you’re investing per gram. "kw" ÷ "g" = kw/g "$" ÷ "g" = $/g I have harvested 4.57oz or 129.6g on 337.2kw. 337.2kw ÷ 129.6g = 2.60 kw/g of usable cannabis. This is not an ideal ratio for me and looks like a lot of energy waste happened from the extended veg period. $35.67 ÷ 129.6g = 0.28c/g It cost 28c/g when comparing total electricity cost to gross yield, almost identical to the comparison of total electrical cost to the number of days in the grow 25c/day. Neat! legend, kwh = kilowatt per hour kw = kilowatt w = watt h = hour c = cents $ = dollars d = day LED= Light Emitting Diode

Me puse a chequear el diario y dos semanas les puse floracion y no lo era. Y por guiarme en eso, pense que estaba demorandose un poco la plantita... No estan tan grande los cogos, pero si super duros, cosa que me encanto. Tiene aroma a caramelo de naranja como lo dije en la otra semana. Ahora se nota mas y le siento cierto olor a gas, pero hermoso. Voy a darle unas 3 semanas o 4, a ver que tanto crece. Quiza el fin de semana vuelvo a regar con el producto, pero despues ya voy a usar solamente agua.

Not much to show this week on the timelapse as we had a cold snap and power went out momentarily, and as such, the camera stopped recording, without me realizing this. So I have also added a little video of the rooms progress. Even with the small bit of footage, I can see that my feeding schedule twice a day seems to keep the leaves from drooping at any time in the video, so I will be keeping this going as is, checking the PH every couple of days and topping up the nutes bucket as needed. I am noticing some leaves dying, but they seem to be mostly ones that are not getting enough light and I am removing them as I go. The upper leaves and buds are looking strong so far, and just a touch of smell in the room. The colas are also starting to thicken and my fingers are getting sticky and stinky when working around them. Looking at the plants from a normal distance, they don't look very crystally, but the close up shots really are making them shine. After taking the pics, I like to zoom in on them and see all the crystals.
