Chugging along

Everything’s fine so far. The plant is looking great and takes up the space it gets. Stretch is just perfect and very manageable.

Hulkberries are easy to grow. All seeds germianted, all Seedlings showed up and then they went into overdrive. Turned out as Big Plants, with sticky and dense Nugs on the COlas NO Training on them. Super structured Plants perfect Ratio from Leaves to Buds

Konnte leider diese Woche noch nicht düngen, weil der kleine Topf immernoch nass war. Sieht nach einem kleinen Wachstumsstop aus.

Looking lovely just way to over crowded so we went out and got another little setup to remove a couple later on 💪

This week marked the transition into flowering as the light cycle was switched to 12/12, officially initiating bloom 🌸 For the first few days both plants continued normal vegetative growth. The stretch became noticeable after about 3 days, marking the beginning of the flowering phase. • Height approx. ~65 cm • Both plants taller than the Jelly Donutz • Early stretch phase beginning Light intensity was increased to ~750 PPFD ☀️ Clear phenotypic differences continue to develop: • Pheno #2 shows a thicker main stem and stronger vertical growth, with branches staying closer to the main stem • Pheno #1 grows more open and spreads more evenly in all directions Water demand differs slightly between the two: • Pheno #2 watered every 2 days • Pheno #1 watered every 2–3 days 💧 Feeding this week: • 1x BioTabs Bio PK • Otherwise water + BioBizz CalMag Environment remained stable: • 25°C temperature • ~60% RH 🌡️ Very few to no visible white pistils yet, which is normal this early after the flip. The plants are still transitioning hormonally and focusing on stretch before full flower development. Overall a smooth and controlled start into bloom, with stretch beginning and clear structural differences between the phenotypes ?🔥

Week 1 Day 1 - 8/12/2023 1st Water change Day! Such a special time it is when you remove the little bit of Nutes that you gave them as an appetizer and you give them their first real meal. Added 39 Gallons of Water to my system SILICA= .5mil/Gal = 19.5 = 20mil Root Drip = 1mil/Gal = 39mil Cal Mag= .25mil/Gal = 9.75 = 10mil FLoraMicro= 3.0mil/Gal = 114mil FloraGro = 2.0mil/Gal = 78mil FloraBloom = 2.0mil/Gal =78mil ORCA= .5mil/Gal = 19.5 = 20mil Week 1 Day 2 - 8/13/2023 Everything is looking good the roots are making thier way to the water and the new grow is looking nice and green. Week 1 Day 3- 8/14/2023 Everything is right on track, they are looking beautiful and in the praying postition all leaves happily lifting towards the light. Week 1 Day 4- 8/15/2023 Looking beautiful today and looked like she could use her first haircut.. gave her a TOP off. Roots are laying in the water everything is looking right on track.. Week 1 Day 5- 8/16/2023 walked in and the humidity was under 60.... ohh noooooo.. So I added 2 humidifiers to the tent and attached them to my InkBird controller which is set to 62. She had roots nicely in the water.. this grow is on!!! Week 1 Day 6- 8/17/2023 Humidity was a little low this morning, so I refilled the humidifiers. Other than that, the temp looks great, the PH looks great, the PPM looks good the plant is in the praying position and all damage from the little drowning seems to have been fixed. Happy Happy. Week 1 Day 7- 8/18/2023 Yay.. week 1 in the books, roots in the water growth has started first hair cut given and both side nodes are growing. Everything is looking good and on track.. A lot better than week one of the last grow when I had them drowning week 1. Really excited on how this grow is going to come out.

🥒 Project Blue Tent – Week 6 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Pheno B (Folder 14B) Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of Project Blue Tent! 💙🌱 If you're joining the adventure for the first time, welcome! Project Blue Tent follows four individual plants, each documented in its own dedicated diary from seed to harvest. Every plant grows under the exact same lighting, environment, irrigation schedule, nutrition and care. By keeping every variable consistent, we can truly appreciate how each phenotype develops its own unique character while also seeing the impressive uniformity that modern F1 genetics can offer. Today we're checking in with Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Plant B. ──────────────────────── 🌱 Week Six – A Sea of Green This week the Blue Tent has become exactly what I imagined when this project first began. Instead of four individual plants competing for attention, the canopy is slowly merging into one beautiful sea of green. One small adjustment changed the appearance of the entire tent. Although Plant B measured around 66 cm or so in last week's report, I decided to lower and tighten the SCROG net across the whole tent. That means all four ladies are now sitting at approximately 60 cm, allowing every centimetre of new growth to be directed horizontally through the screen instead of vertically. That's the real objective now. We're no longer chasing height. We're building surface area. Every branch tucked beneath the screen today becomes another future flowering site tomorrow, and every empty square that disappears brings us one step closer to a perfectly even canopy. Plant B continues embracing this process beautifully. ──────────────────────── 🌿 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Plant B This phenotype continues showing the same personality she's displayed since the beginning. She's wonderfully balanced. While her sister naturally wants to stretch, Plant B seems perfectly happy expanding outward, producing a dense framework filled with healthy side branches. The recovery after topping now feels like a distant memory. Every new shoot is developing with confidence, and the canopy is becoming fuller with each passing day. The stems continue thickening, the internodal spacing remains compact, and perhaps my favourite observation of all... The foliage. The leaves have developed that rich, healthy green colour every grower loves to see. It's the kind of colour that quietly tells you the plant is comfortable. Comfortable roots. Comfortable environment. Comfortable nutrition. Sometimes healthy plants don't need dramatic stories. They simply grow. ──────────────────────── 🕸️ The Beauty of SCROG Every day begins almost the same way. Open the tent. Look across the canopy. Find a few branches reaching above the screen. Guide them gently into the next empty square. Done. It's one of those techniques that rewards patience far more than force. There are no dramatic bends or stressful training sessions. Just small daily adjustments that slowly transform individual plants into one unified canopy. Looking across the Blue Tent now, it's becoming harder to tell where one plant finishes and another begins. That's exactly what a healthy SCROG should look like. ──────────────────────── 🌡️ Blue Tent Environment The environment continues providing exactly what these ladies need. Average conditions remained: • 🌡️ Day Temperature: 30°C • 🌙 Night Temperature: 25°C • 💧 Relative Humidity: 58% • 🥥 Root Zone Temperature: 24°C • 💦 Nutrient Solution Temperature: 18°C • ⚗️ pH: 5.8 • ⚡ EC: 1.92 mS/cm • 💨 CO₂: Approximately 450 ppm • 💡 Light Schedule: 18/6 • 💧 Irrigation: 1.2 litres per plant per day Despite the warm weather outside, stable conditions inside the tent continue allowing the plants to recover effortlessly from training while maintaining vigorous vegetative growth. ──────────────────────── 🥥 Feeding & Irrigation One thing I've learned over the years is that consistency often produces better results than constant adjustments. Since increasing the feeding slightly a couple of weeks ago, the plants have responded exactly as I hoped. The richer green colour has returned, growth remains vigorous, and there are no signs suggesting the recipe needs changing. Current feeding schedule: • Plagron Hydro A — 1.9 ml/L • Plagron Hydro B — 1.9 ml/L • Plagron Hydro Roots — 1 ml/L Each plant continues receiving approximately 1.2 litres of nutrient solution every day through the Mars Hydro automatic drip irrigation system. The automatic drainage system removes the runoff beneath the grow bags, preventing nutrient buildup around the roots while keeping the growing area remarkably clean. It's one of those systems that quietly does its job every day while making the entire grow more consistent. ──────────────────────── 📸 Looking Closer – Discovering a Different World One of the greatest joys of documenting these diaries has nothing to do with nutrients or training. It's photography. More specifically... Macro photography. Most people look at a cannabis plant and see leaves. A macro lens tells a completely different story. Suddenly the stems become covered in thousands of tiny protective hairs. The beautiful purple pigmentation running through the branches begins revealing itself in incredible detail. Young leaves show delicate textures that are almost impossible to appreciate with the naked eye. Even the smallest leaf veins become intricate natural patterns. The more time I spend behind the camera, the more I realise how much beauty exists in places we normally overlook. Macro photography has changed the way I walk through the grow room. It slows me down. Instead of simply checking on the plants, I find myself truly observing them. Every stem. Every new leaf. Every tiny detail nature has quietly been creating all along. Growing teaches patience. Macro photography teaches appreciation. Together they've made me enjoy this hobby even more than I already did. ──────────────────────── 🌿 Looking Ahead The mission for next week remains simple. Continue filling the SCROG. Maintain the stable environment. Trust the process. The canopy is becoming flatter every day, and with each branch finding its own place beneath the screen, the excitement for flowering continues to grow. There is still plenty of work ahead. But there is absolutely no rush. Healthy plants reward patience. ──────────────────────── 💙 Thank You A huge thank you to Zamnesia for making Project Blue Tent possible, from these outstanding Pickle Lemon Haze F1 genetics to the complete ecosystem surrounding this grow. A heartfelt thank you to Plagron for providing the Premium Growbags together with the Hydro nutrient line that continues producing vigorous growth and beautifully healthy plants week after week. A special thank you to Phytonaut for the outstanding LED lighting, delivering compact growth, incredible structure and a wonderfully even canopy throughout the Blue Tent. A sincere thank you to Mars Hydro for the automatic drip irrigation and drainage system that has brought consistency, cleanliness and simplicity to every day inside the grow room. Thank you to GrowDiaries for providing growers around the world with a place to document their journeys, share knowledge and continue inspiring one another. And finally... Thank you to every one of you following Project Blue Tent. Whether you've been here since germination, recently discovered these diaries, leave comments every week or quietly follow along from the background, your support truly means the world to me. Every week these plants teach me something new. I hope, through these diaries, they're teaching a little something to all of us. Until next week... Growers Love, happy growing, and I'll see you all soon. 🌱💙

Fan fan.. Need grow speed it.. The weather doesn't look good. :()

Another week for the persian pie 😁 so far so good, only 2 and half weeks left, we gave some candy and for the rest only water! Hopefully things continue to go good! She showed a lot of thc so I'm sure it's going to be a strong smoke

I might switch the lights in the next days. Depending on her growth. Day44: Added some water and moved the camera a little further away. Day45: She felt lonely, so I got her a friend... Theobroma Cacao. New seedling that needs the warmth + humidity. Hopefully surviving winter. Day46: I decided to take some zoomed in stills of her. To show off her beauty. The purpling of the branches really make this lady something special. In some of the shots it might look like her leaves are yellowing, but it's just the angle of the light. You can see on the photo that I took from the top, that all leaves are a healthy dark green. At least I now have proof that she's a lady. She's short and stubby, but I'm not really growing for amount. I just neeed 50g, after all (hehe) Day47: She grew like a demon overnight. I'll check the height tomorrow.

12/08/24 beautiful plant. buds are like mountainous structures. cant wait for harvest with this one. in the home stretch. 12/14 getting chunky. may need support

Ab dieser Woche wurde die Pflanze seltener besprüht und die Luftfeuchtigkeit ein bisschen gesenkt. Zusätzlich starte ich die Woche mit ein bisschen mehr Dünger um der Pflanze jetzt zum Start in die richtige Vegetationsphase Kraft zu geben.

Strawberry banana is coming along great!! Buds are really getting fat and frosty. They feel super hard to the squeeze! Smell is amazing...its a fruity gassy smell. Pistols are really starting to turn. @420fastbuds delivers again!!

Girls are growing and showing really nicely for 3 weeks of flower. Smells now starting to eminate from both. The Sugarcane smells like passion fruit punch and the orange Velvet is still to complex to call but amazing nonetheless. Defoliated more. Didn't have a choice since the canopy was still so dense.

An Tag 94 werden Apple Fritter und Runtz F1 geschnitten und geernet. GG#4 wächst weiter vor sich hin.

UHey guys so beena quite week tgot aw few whitefly on my girplws nothing to really worry about. Just plain aater with calcuim and mag supplement is all they get for moment . til neXt week
