Last 2 weeks only plain water on blue medi kush. Flushing other girls for a week now and this should be their final week of life but dinafems grape and og kush are still shooting white hairs or they are just turning them to orange very slow. I got the runoff ppm on all girls down to 200(my tap water), want the smoke to be as clean as possible.

I've turned down the lights again to 60%, and with the increased feeding last week, the GMO and Glookies really seem to be getting back some green where it was almost gone. The overdose in N from CalMag Agent seemed to have done the trick. Some of the lower leaves on the Glookies are already quite dark green, and since I expect to harvest (some) in 2-5 weeks, I don't want to overfeed it now. So I have reduced the CalMag Agent level again. Sour Strawberry and Acapulco Gold are unimpressed and continue to slowly fade. They have also gained a bunch of weight again, all in all it's going ok now.

Hello growmies! Welcome to week ten of An Epsilon Adventure! Massive thanks to both Shogun and Royal Queen Seeds for sponsoring this grow! I have been fertigating and also emptying the de-humidifier water into the driest looking substrate as it fills up. I have been keeping the tent door open and pushing more air through with fans. Daily Updates ### Week 10 Day 1 11:00 27/8 Photographed. ### Week 10 Day 3 17:00 29/8 Photographed. ### Week 10 Day 4 06:00 30/8 Fertigated 4l ### Week 10 Day 5 23:00 31/8 Have inspected very closely. I have had to tied up just about every branch on plant 2 as the buds are rapidly approaching peak density and the weight of them is causing all the stems to bend over. Despite not having a main cola, if I manage to harvest, dry, and cure this plant, I think it's going to exceed 100g. The highest buds are showing around 2-3% amber - I am counting the days now, this girl is very close. The harvest window is open, but I am waiting for about 10 times more amber. Interestingly. using the loupe I have discovered that plant 1 is likely to be the next to be harvested despite both plants 4 and 5 being ahead of her. She is showing early signs of fade and I am seeing about 1% amber. No fade, no amber on the other three plants. Some heat stress/damage on higher fan leaves. Not concerned, nothing do be done, the plants got too big and I am only happy to be able to keep them upright and still in the tent, even though they are higher than the light. I will take proper photos tomorrow. --- Thanks for reading growmies! 👊 ========== Tent: 120cm x 120cm x 180cm Light: 600w HID Elite Dual Spectrum HPS + Angel Wing Reflector Air: 5" duct fan system with carbon filter ~300 m3/hour + RAM 9" floor fan + 4" intake fan Pots: Air Pruner Fabric Pots 30l - UGro XL Coco + horticultural grade perlite (~20%) Seeds supplied by Royal Queen Seeds https://www.royalqueenseeds.com Nutrients supplied by Shogun Fertilisers https://www.shogunfertilisers.com/en ==========

No complaints, plant seemed a bit stunted by defoliation. Not a lot of growth. But healthy.

This week I finished the last clones, hoping to see some great phenotypes. I plan to keep the best ones, make a selection, and keep the best ones, then plant more to select the best and discard the rest. Next week, for flowering, I've raised my light to its maximum height (I don't use a filter inside the grow tent; I have the whole room under one filter) and to 50% power to give them a little extra boost these last few weeks and improve their growth. I love having the information on my phone to know what's happening with my babies at all times.

Die Woche war naja so okay die Blätter hängen nicht mehr allerdings sind sie immer noch angefressen ich weiß nicht was es ist ich habe sie jetzt Vor paar Tagen getoppt. Und habe sie auch in die Blüte geschickt allerdings weiß ich nicht ob sie durch ein Experiment habe auch hier Nematoden hinzugefügt weil wir irgendwelche Würmer im Boden entdeckt haben beziehungsweise Larven von den Fliegen die überall rum fliegen. Jetzt abwarten wenigstens stehen die Blätter wieder schön ganze wächst weiter das war wohl viel Stress mit in die Blüte schicken und Toppen in einer Woche aber abwarten. Ich hoffe dass die Blätter so sind wegen den Fliegen und nicht wegen über Besserung allerdings habe ich sie auch austrocknen lassen und jetzt noch mal neu gegossen mit den Nematoden bis nächste Woche

Week 4 flower: all 3 plants left in the tent are pollinated - it's hard to tell to what extent but bud formation has slowed down 😞. Middle plant (Mimosa Evo #2) is definitely the strongest pheno and its trichomes smell like tangerines which is really nice! We did an intense defoliation on Day 24 of flower in an attempt to lower humidity and increase airflow but RH is still dangerously high at 80% because of the current weather. Also gave them a bloom PK top dressing on day 26 because canna coco does not provide a PK boost in their coco nutrient line. Hope to see the buds dense up over the next few weeks without too many seeds ...

Day 29: The girls are looking great. I upped the nutes yesterday, as I have been giving them barely any at all. Will up them once again on next feeding. Looking like tomorrow. The main branch that I snapped off did not make it. Lesson learned on that one. Day 30: Removed all other lights and added the HLG 550 V2 RSpec. Did some defoliation on the girls along with another feeding. Will do straight PH'd water next go. The girls are looking strong and healthy. 💪 Just on the small side. Still having to leave the tent wide open to subside temps and humidity. Day 31: Nothing new to report. Looking very short and stubby and healthy!! Day 32: Looking like they had some good stretching going on over the 3-day weekend. Will be needing fed tomorrow after work. May water a little less this time, as it is taking 2-3 days for them to dry out. Day 33: Great stretch and bloom on the girls today! They are looking super healthy and strong! 💪 No smell yet. Day 34: Girls are looking decent. Noticed some rusty looking splotches on the leaves. I'm thinking possibly Cal-Mag deficiency? Not sure. Day 35: Not looking too happy today. I let them dry completely and watered with only Cal-Mag. Hoping the patchiness clears up for them!

10/2: My soil mix was too hot and I accidentally killed 11 of the 12 Fastbuds seedlings I had going. So, I started about 20 Candy Cane hybrids in rapid rooters wetted with myco, tricho, and beneficial bacteria. All but one popped up. One of them did a cobra-basket and petered out. The beans all came from tray trash that accumulated while I was smoking three diff strains, so I probably won't know what they are until they are flowering. 10/4: Looks like I'll have enough growing that I have to cull the weakest few. I can feasibly (possibly) squeeze 14 into the lower section of the closet under 720w if they act right and if I do some training, and another 4 in the top under 200w if I keep them at 30" or less in height. 10/6: I think I'll veg everybody in the bottom section until I'm out of space, then move the shorter 4 or maybe 5 into the top section as necessary...and move the tiniest ones outdoors to finish. I just don't have the heart to kill anything that's got a potential yield of a half-ounce or more. Some of the most diminutive plants I've grown produced the stankiest buds.. I've currently got the 200w 3500k+660nm running at about 32" in the middle of the closet, and one of the 3 pairs of 120w 3000k+660nm quantum boards running at about 36" and should be sufficient coverage for the next week or so. Then I'll kick on the pair of boards closest to the doorway and spread them out a bit..and then I'll move the 200w light to the top section along with the best 4 short plants. At that point I'll turn on the center 2 qb's and install a 2 foot Solacure Flower Power UV light in the perpendicular center channel of my frame. 10/7: I installed my new AC Infinity 6" fan in the attic and hooked up a 16" carbon filter today. I used some sound deadening foam on the rafter that I mounted it to and removed 100% of the vibration. I haven't programmed the thermo/hygro stuff yet, but tested it on high and I can't hear a thing anywhere in the structure.👍 I'm also purchasing a dual 120mm fan system from AC Infinity in the door, behind the grille I already installed to serve as fresh air intake. It also has a thermostat feature that will allow me to set it to only come on when the temps are too high, so I'm optimistic that it will allow me to manage the temperatures in this closet with about 1000w running for 18-20 hours a day.🙏 I moved the 200w 3500k+660nm to the top section today and lowered my QB frame to 32" above the plants. I have two pairs of them running now, and received the replacement HLG 240-48A driver today for the third pair. I'll hook it up later..dont need it now.. 10/8: I fed most of them today for the first time...about 16 oz of solution containing grow big, big bloom, kelp me kelp you, boomerang, and armor si. I hooked up the 3rd pair of qb's today....wow that's bright....they're gonna love it!😎 The last of the sprouts has been planted and is growing. That's a total of 19.... 3 of them still in 1 liter pots and getting plain distilled water. I also foliar fed all of them with a little big bloom and kelp me kelp you. 10/9: I got some Axiom to apply onto them tomorrow. It's got a good amount of Harpin a|b proteins which trigger rapid plant growth and other defensive traits that are proven to be canna-friendly, like enhanced resin production and increased resistance to molds, mildews, and fungi. I foliar fed them today with big bloom kelp me kelp you, and the day following the Axiom application I plan to foliar feed them with Biotabs BoomBoom Spray to negate any initial ill-effects caused by the Axiom. I'll probably just mist them with distilled water for a day or two following that regimen to ensure that it's all rinsed off. But, following that break in the foliar feeding routine, I've got some Fulvic/Humic acid to rain gently over them for a couple of days. 10/11: End of week 1, and I'm happy with their progress thus far.😀 They had no trouble with the "Harpin protein attack" I engaged them with yesterday... at all, and even look quite a bit bigger than I expected. They also had their first "night time* last night...4 blissful hours in 74f temps with 48%RH.💤

This week went well. They are all stretching out nicely, except for alien berries which is looking a little runtish. Pink kush did not like the nitrogen and she made it clear to me with some claws up top. She also began to really prefiere so next feed will be with bloom mutes for her. The other ladies still seem to be in veg despite showing sex already. Defoliating any large leaves covering lower growth tips.

Final week now. I watered with clear water today and it’ll be the last time. Harvest will be on the weekend probably. Was a nice ride with some hurdles but it should turn out alright. Excited for the next grow already. Will most probably be Dynamite Diesel. Stay tuned for more. Update: All the branches are hanging at half past eight, as we say in German. None of them can hold its weight properly anymore. Only one or two days left. I’m excited to see the roots. The ones in my first grow have been kinda crippled for various reasons mostly my fault. But this time the roots at day 12 when I repotted already looked stronger and even almost bigger than those of my first grow after the harvest. So I’m expecting the entire pots to be filled with strong roots justifying this so far magnificent result.
