🌱 Week 3 | Purple Haze Photo | Folder 7A | Building the Foundation, One Leaf at a Time Welcome back to another chapter of Project Blue, where every Purple Haze phenotype receives its own dedicated GrowDiaries report. Although these plants all come from the same genetic line and are growing under identical conditions, each individual expresses its own personality, structure, and growth rhythm. That is exactly why these diaries exist. Some growers only document a room. I wanted to document every plant. Each report is completely self-contained, allowing anyone who discovers this diary to understand the entire project without needing to read the previous folders. Like every plant in Project Blue, Purple Haze 7A is being cultivated using my favourite 12/12 From Seed technique. From the moment she broke through the soil, she has lived under a 12-hour flowering photoperiod, encouraging compact growth, tight internodal spacing, and allowing each phenotype to reveal its natural characteristics while remaining perfectly manageable inside the grow room. Even though we’re only entering Week 3, this little lady has already shown remarkable progress. Looking back at the first photographs of the week compared with the final ones, the transformation is easy to appreciate. She began the week looking modest and compact, but by the end she had developed into a beautifully structured young plant with noticeably stronger branching and a much fuller canopy. Sometimes the biggest progress isn’t measured in height—it’s measured in structure. ⸻ 🌡️ Week 3 Growing Environment Consistency remains one of the most important ingredients in every successful grow. Throughout the week the environment remained stable: • 🌡️ Day Temperature: 27°C • 🌙 Night Temperature: 25°C • 💧 Relative Humidity: 55% • 🌱 Root Zone Temperature: 21°C • 🚰 Nutrient Solution Temperature: 20°C • ⚖️ pH: 6.0 • ⚡ EC: 1.3 • 🌬️ CO₂: approximately 666 ppm • 💡 Photoperiod: 12 Hours ON / 12 Hours OFF • ☀️ Average PPFD: 600–700 Stable environmental conditions allow the plants to dedicate their energy to growth instead of constantly adapting to fluctuating temperatures or humidity levels. Healthy roots, consistent transpiration, and balanced metabolism all begin with a stable room. ⸻ 🌿 Feeding Schedule Purple Haze 7A continues receiving the complete Plagron Terra vegetative program: • Terra Grow — 1.8 ml/L • Power Roots — 1 ml/L • Pure Zym — 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L At this stage I still prefer a conservative feeding strategy. Rather than pushing maximum growth, my objective is to build a healthy root system, strengthen the stems, and encourage vigorous but controlled vegetative development before flowering accelerates naturally. A healthy plant never needs to be rushed. ⸻ 🍃 Leaf Tucking Before Leaf Cutting One of the biggest changes throughout this week wasn’t caused by nutrients or lighting—it came from simple canopy management. Rather than removing fan leaves, I continued practicing leaf tucking, gently repositioning the larger leaves beneath developing branches whenever possible. This simple technique allows light to reach lower growth sites without sacrificing the plant’s solar panels. Those fan leaves are producing valuable energy every hour the lights are on, so if they can be moved instead of removed, the plant keeps all of that photosynthetic power while the lower branches receive the light they need to grow. It’s a small adjustment that often produces surprisingly big results over time. ⸻ 🌱 Gentle Low Stress Training As the week progressed, Purple Haze 7A also became an excellent candidate for some very gentle Low Stress Training (LST). Rather than forcing the plant into shape, the objective is simply to guide her natural growth. By carefully opening the canopy and encouraging the developing side branches to receive equal exposure to the light, we’re already beginning to create a much more balanced structure for flowering. The difference between the beginning and end of the week is remarkable. Instead of one dominant growing tip, multiple future flowering sites are now waking up and preparing to compete for the canopy. Every day she becomes a little more symmetrical. Every day the structure becomes stronger. And every day she looks a little more prepared for what’s coming next. ⸻ 🌿 A Compact Plant With Big Potential Purple Haze 7A may still be one of the smaller plants in the room, but she has something I always appreciate—balance. Her internodal spacing remains tight. The stem is thickening nicely. The foliage displays a rich, healthy green colour. New growth is vibrant and full of energy, while the secondary branches continue to develop steadily beneath the canopy. She’s not trying to become the biggest plant. She’s quietly becoming one of the best-built. Very often, those are the plants that surprise you the most once flowering begins. ⸻ 🔭 Looking Ahead With another successful week behind her, Purple Haze 7A is entering the next stage with an increasingly well-organized structure and excellent overall health. The combination of stable environmental conditions, gentle LST, strategic leaf tucking, and balanced nutrition is beginning to pay dividends. Every adjustment this week has been made with one goal in mind: creating an even canopy that will maximize light distribution once flowering starts to accelerate. She’s still a compact young lady—but she’s no longer a tiny seedling. She’s becoming a very promising phenotype. Growers Love ad I can’t wait to see what she has planned for the weeks ahead.

8 weeks later and these girls are getting smelly! They are also steadily packing on some weight and I'm getting excited! This week the girls look to be in mid flowering stage and they were starting to show some kind of deficiency (maybe should've top dressed last week) well I top dressed last night and whipped up a compost tea for them too so we'll see how they react this week. This Orange Sherbet girl finally got some defoliation and LST. The flowers are budding up and I could not risk a lack of air flow so she's all opened up and looking gooood. The next run I'll be doing them all like this I think. Getting very excited for a taste 😋 Hope you all had a good week and thanks for checking in ✌️

What a come back from this plant, it started small but it's definitely caught up.

I harvested my pollen sacks plant looks healthy at this point I dont feed till harvest just water every 3-4 days. think o got 21 more days to go b4 harvest but until then I'm just checking out my trichomes so that I dont harvest to late .....one love and dont forget weed is love so share the love with those you know .......

Heeey guys! Me again! This week was full of surprises and one major mistake! Hahaha. First of all, the 4th baby is now at a decent size! This was a huge surprise! She's all grown up and looks gorgeous! I'm probably going to move her to a proper pot size so she won't feel trapped! I also need to trim her again! The other 3 are advancing at a proper speed. Max is the one who has responded the best to the main-lining and LST as she seems to have barely gone thru any kind of physical damage With Roko I made a huge mistake when I tried to bend her branches 😰 I broke her stem in the middle but managed to fix it on time I hope (first with tape and then with some soft wire). It seems one of her parts are getting more nutrients compared to the other one... but there's not a lot I can do if that's the case. The 3rd baby is the one who had not suffered any kind of mayor "nutritional" problem if you compare her to her sisters (leaf colors, and some browning at the tips. The other tho has gone thru those issues but her? Nothing!) So I'm expecting a lot from this one! I also made 4 timelapses! Right now I'm also debating if I want to mainline for 8 colas or just stay at 4. My tent isn't big (80x80cm or 2.6~x2.6~) so I need to choose quickly if I want to risk it with so many plants in such small space! Anyway, that's all for now! I hope you enjoy the photos and videos! Any kind of tip would be great! Thanks everyone!

Week 5 12/10/2022 BLAST OFF!! It's party time. What a difference!! This BioBizz is doing a great job. The leaves just started growing louder. I see a spot here and there but nothing to worry about yet. 🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱 "I don't smoke weed to escape reality, I smoke weed to enjoy reality even more." Unknown 🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱 Thanks for reading!!

The top dress from last week is working nicely. Everyday watering with brix, green aminos, calmag and silica. 2 of the Blueberry Cherry are ultra blueberry phenos. 2 black patronus are very sherbsy but one is ultra sherbs

.

The Permanent Markers are finally taking off! They've at least doubled in height since last week. Of course, they're still really small, but it's cool to see them finally getting going. They look healthy and are developing nicely. Well, another year has come and gone. Yesterday was New Year's Eve, and I want to wish all of you a happy and healthy 2025. May this year bring you all the things you've been wishing for. Let's make this the best year yet!

the plant looks great

Day 79. This Sunday they fall !!! What an amazing colours and grande type bud structure from GSCA !!! In love !!! NL SBG is ready too and caught up some weight, but Bob is so behind ... Give good contrast in photos tho ..... ;))) Mars light delivered as always !!! My friend will be chopping and in my tent it's only middle of flower ... All girls were planted on same day, just under SP3000 they develop a lot faster !!! Next time I will try bigger amount of dry amendments and will hope for no hickups ... Happy Growing !!!

There's one plant that isn't growing like the others and I can't find the reason. Despite that, this week went ok.

The plant was harvested on the 73rd day. It was hung not as a whole plant but by separate bud sites. Bud sites had the larger fan leaves removed before the drying process. Temps for the drying were 62F 55%RH for 10 days. She then had a quick cleaning of sugar leaves and jarred for cure. Final report will be coming shortly.😍 Final report: (Smoke report not loading comments) After months cured in a jar I rolled up a joint and smoked it. It had a nice smooth smoke with the flavor of vanilla cake/cookie . She also had a hint of citrus. After the harvest was done I prepped the area for next year's outdoor grow. I will continue to prep the area for the next few months by adding goodies to the area to bring in the worms.😍

Pink Certz is ripening slowly but surely and she is nutrient depleted lol. She is looking very nice with deep coloration almost a black color. Her scent is lingering around the outside and inside of the house with a sweet, fruity, candy and minty smell! Lowered light intensity from 60% to 50%, cut hours from 12/12 to 11/13 and stopped supplementing UV light a week ago. Been feeding only water and Flawless Finish once a week for two weeks so I’m hoping by next week she is ripe enough to harvest.

Welcome to Week 6, Day 42 for the Sweet Seeds Gorilla Girl XL Autoflowering grow. All four of these lovely ladies are now fully into flower and the tent has filled up considerably. Even though this grow cycle is not going to produce the XL plants I was originally hoping for, this strain seems to have a lot of bud sites compared to other autos I have grown previously. Had these plants reached their full potential- I truly believe that this could/would have been a massive harvest. I fertilized them again in Week 6 with their final dose of a Grow based formula at 2 mls/gallon. They will be switched over a Bloom based fertilizer in Week 7 at a rate of 2.5 mls/gallon. I am still watering every 4th day and all four plants are receiving 3 litres each or 0.75 of a litre per plant per day. There is something killing off the foliage from the bottom up on the plant in the front of the tent on the left hand side. Not sure what the problem is so I am simply removing the dead/dying foliage as needed and hoping that she’ll have enough leaves to make it through to harvest. Mom’s Tip for Week #6- When it comes to Fertilizer- $Less$ = More… For me, successfully growing Cannabis indoors means trying to mimic what nature normally provides for free. Sun, fresh air, water and nutrient rich soil are all essential for healthy, happy plants. At some point during the grow (usually 4-6 weeks in) the plant has used up all of the nutrients originally present in the soil thus requiring the grower to have to supplement with some type of fertilizer. I see many growers photographing and showing off their huge displays of colourful bottles and I gasp when I read their long lists of 10-15 different fertilizers and supplements being added to every single batch of water. Not only is this unbelievably expensive and overwhelming but time consuming and completely unnecessary for a successful grow. For those seeking an Organic path there are options such as homemade compost tea or powdered formulas consisting of bat guano, glacial rock dust, bone meal, alfalfa meal, etc. I often use a Canadian made brand called “Gaia Green Organics", mixed in at the start to create my own super soil thus carrying the plants through their first 4-6 weeks of life needing nothing more than PH’d water. The organic fertilizers are usually more expensive and often have a slower uptake by the plants themselves as they tend to feed the soil first which in turn feeds the plants. For novice/newbie growers and those with fast flowering strains such as Autos- a non organic, liquid, water soluble fertilizer is often the way to go. They are generally cheap, easy to use and quickly taken up by the plants when they need it most. My ride or die brand is "Flora Nova” by General Hydroponics and it comes in a 1 part nutrient grow and bloom formula catering to my plants’ needs from start to finish. This company has many options available including all kinds of additional supplements to be used in conjunction with their standard grow/bloom formulas but I’ve never found these products all that necessary or beneficial. Using them in the past has led to over fertilization resulting in burnt foliage, stunted bud development and harsh flavours when smoking/vaping the final product. Not only does $Less is More$ apply to how many fertilizers you are giving your plants but it also applies to how much. Most photosensitive strains can easily tolerate a full dose (as per the manufacturer’s recommendations) and thrive with being fed every time you water. But Autoflowers and some smaller photosensitive strains seem to respond differently to a slight tweak- keeping in mind that if you start small, you can always add more but if you start big, you can’t take back what’s already been given. I will generally only fertilize at half of what the manufacturer recommends for a photosensitive strain- every other or every second watering. Starting out at a quarter dose for the initial feeding which can sometimes be as low as 1.25 mls per gallon and working my way up from there. It doesn’t seem like much but within hours I can see my plants responding positively with increased/sustained turgor, greening up a little and increased resin production which equals "smell/scent". For me, I can smell when I’ve just fertilized my plants- it’s a stronger smell than the normal scent that they give off with a plain watering. If you’re lucky, you’ll end up growing a greedy Autoflowering strain that seems to want more than what you’re giving it. Rather than increasing to a higher dose in a single feeding, try feeding more often at the same dose- so if you’re feeding every other or every second watering, try feeding every watering at the same dose (trying not to increase above half of the manufacturer’s recommendation for the photo strains). Occasionally I will increase beyond the halfway dose to accommodate for the plants’ needs in late flower as most fertilizer companies list an increase to adequately feed during late flower anyhow. I guess the main message for this week is to keep it simple as nature intended. Learn to read your plants and supplement the small amount of nutrients that your plants don’t already have in the high quality soil you initially provided. Cannabis cultivation can be overwhelming at first but the $Less is More$ approach will save you time, money and the realization that you’ve accidentally fried your plants!

Not really happy with this week. I expected a lot more stretch from the plant, but there is sadly almost none. Also not happy how some of the leaves are looking (turned down). I thought that it might be light or water stress but I tried to reduce both factors and it didn't really change anything. Also tried to lower the vpd but also nothing changed. There are a few gnats here and there, but I can't imagine they would have such an impact, so my last theory would be the pH of the water, but I just ordered a pH meter and it will take some time to arrive. I you have any ideas, let me know.

The second week of vegetation is over and watching the plant grow is a rewarding experience for me. Now that the plant is well-established, it is time to begin training it. This involves LST to ensure it reaches its full potential in this case. I look forward to discovering what this plant will become 😋😊
