I planted this into its final container.. I did some light defoliation this week to expose all the bud sites in hopes they fatten up and then to frosty mcnuggets.. never really Defoliate autos but trying something new... At that point of putting on its weight so I jumped the nutes up a bit more. Had some slight light burn during veg and early flower.. brand new hlg blackbird.. I justvput it up to 70% at about 24 inches away.. 60% was too much during veg so kinda touch and go but keeping an eye on her.

Day 44 - March 25, 2021 Started noticing a couple gnats in our house. It's been warm outside and they are starting to come out. Unfortunately saw some in the room as well and can only assume there are many more feeding on the ladies. Gave foliar spray using Bee Safe Organicide. Gave all the girls a thorough haircut today and worked on trying to get canopy under control. Vegatation was very thick. Doesn't look like deficency issue with F7 is spreading. Continuing to watch for any changes indicating the problem is still ongoing. Gave foliar spray (1:00AM): * Bee Safe Organicide Watering: 03:00AM-3:10AM ~0.33 gallons per pot 11:00AM-11:10AM ~0.33 gallons per pot 7:00PM-7:10PM ~0.33 gallons per pot Reservoir: * tested 10:45PM * 2.21 EC * 5.9 PH * 73.94F (with ambient temps being higher, res temp is higher as well) * ~13-gallons remaining before topping off * Added ~5-gallons (solution mixed 3/24) (11:00PM) * 2.16 EC (after topping off) * 5.9 pH (after topping off) * 73.40F (after topping off) * ~18-gallons remaining (after topping off) Lights: * Gavita LEDs On 20-hours (8:00AM - 4:00AM) ** 8:00AM Lights On (100%) ** 1:00AM-4:00AM (Reduced light intensity to 50% for foliar spray) * Gavita LEDs Off 4-hours (4:00AM - 8:00AM) * UV Bars Off 24-hours Air control: 69F-82F (80F AVG) (Lights On) 66F (Lights Off) 50%-65% (56% AVG) humidity (Lights On) 60%-70% RH (Lights Off) ~1181PPM CO2 (Lights On) ~690PPM CO2 (Lights Off) Day 45 - March 26, 2021 Didn't do much in the garden today. Tucked a couple branches under trellis netting and that's pretty much it. Hoping will have the trellis on each cage filled out by next weekend. Nutrient deficiency with F7 seems to be resolved. New growth not showing any issues. Found a dead gnat on a leaf. Bee Safe foliar spray seems to have done the trick. Continuing to keep close eye out for pests. Mixed of nutrient solution (11:00PM): ** 50-gallons RO water (0.06 EC) ** 10ML h2o2 per gallon ** 5ML Botanicare Cal-mag+ per gallon (0.54 EC after Cal-Mag) ** 0.5ML Mills Nutrients Vitalize per gallon ** 10ML Mills Nutrients Basis A & B per gallon ** 4ML Mills Nutrients Start-R per gallon ** 1.25ML pHup per gallon (bring PH from ~5.1 to 5.8) ** ~2.02 EC ** 5.8/5.9 pH Watering: 03:00AM-3:10AM ~0.33 gallons per pot 11:00AM-11:10AM ~0.33 gallons per pot 7:00PM-7:10PM ~0.33 gallons per pot Reservoir: * tested 11:30PM * 2.16 EC * 5.8/5.9 PH * 73.94F (with ambient temps being higher, res temp is higher as well) * ~10-gallons remaining * Didn't top off today Lights: * Gavita LEDs On 20-hours (8:00AM - 4:00AM) ** 8:00AM Lights On (100%) * Gavita LEDs Off 4-hours (4:00AM - 8:00AM) * UV Bars On 8-hours (12:00PM - 8:00PM) Air control: 69F-82F (81F AVG) (Lights On) 66F (Lights Off) 50%-65% (60% AVG) humidity (Lights On) 60%-70% RH (Lights Off) ~1268PPM CO2 (Lights On) ~620PPM CO2 (Lights Off) Day 46 - March 27, 2021 Did some more pruning to remove thick foliage and open up nodes. Continuing to tuck branches through trellis. Expect will be ready to go into flower in apprxomately a week. CO2 tank ran out and co2 levels dropped to 330PPM for the first couple of hours of lights on. Replaced tank at 10AM. Watering: 03:00AM-3:10AM ~0.33 gallons per pot 11:00AM-11:10AM ~0.33 gallons per pot 7:00PM-7:10PM ~0.33 gallons per pot Reservoir: * topped off with ~18-gallons * tested 9:30PM * 2.06 EC * 5.9 PH * 73.94F (with ambient temps being higher, res temp is higher as well) * ~20-gallons remaining Lights: * Gavita LEDs On 20-hours (8:00AM - 4:00AM) ** 8:00AM Lights On (100%) * Gavita LEDs Off 4-hours (4:00AM - 8:00AM) * UV Bars On 8-hours (12:00PM - 8:00PM) Air control: 69F-82F (80F AVG) (Lights On) 66F (Lights Off) 55%-70% (64% AVG) humidity (Lights On) 60%-70% RH (Lights Off) ~1397PPM CO2 (Lights On) ~330PPM CO2 (Lights Off) Day 47 - March 28, 2021 Didn't do much in the garden today. Deficiency issue on new growth is continuing to newest nodes on F7 and is starting to show in F6, F2, and F3 as well. Also noticed a few leaves with small tip of nutrient burn. Flushed F2, F3, F6, and F7 until runoff EC was equal to input. F1,F4, F5, and F8 look good but will flush those tomorrow as well just in case. Flushed with: * RO Water (starting EC 0.05) * 0.5ML Mills Nutrients Vitalize per gallon * 5ML Cal-Mag+ per gallon * pH 5.8 * EC 0.53 Watering: 03:00AM-3:10AM ~0.33 gallons per pot 11:00AM-11:10AM ~0.33 gallons per pot 7:00PM-7:10PM ~0.33 gallons per pot Reservoir: * tested 8:30PM * 2.06 EC * 5.9 PH * 74.48F * ~13-gallons remaining Lights: * Gavita LEDs On 20-hours (8:00AM - 4:00AM) ** 8:00AM Lights On (100%) * Gavita LEDs Off 4-hours (4:00AM - 8:00AM) * UV Bars On 8-hours (12:00PM - 8:00PM) Air control: 69F-82F (79F AVG) (Lights On) 66F (Lights Off) 55%-70% (65% AVG) humidity (Lights On) 60%-70% RH (Lights Off) ~1312PPM CO2 (Lights On) ~1292PPM CO2 (Lights Off) Day 48 - March 29, 2021 Flushed F1, F4, F5, and F8 until runoff EC was equal to input.

Gave Foliar Spray Foliar Spray: * 1 Gallon RO Water (EC 0.08) * 10ML CalMag+ per Gallon * 0.5ML Mills Nutrients Vitalize per gallon * PH 6.0 * EC 1.19 Watering: 03:00AM-3:10AM ~0.33 gallons per pot 11:00AM-11:10AM ~0.33 gallons per pot 7:00PM-7:10PM ~0.33 gallons per pot Reservoir: * tested 8:00PM * 2.05 EC * 5.9 PH * 73.76F * Topped off to approximately 20-gallons Lights: * Gavita LEDs On 20-hours (8:00AM - 4:00AM) ** 8:00AM Lights On (100%) * Gavita LEDs Off 4-hours (4:00AM - 8:00AM) * UV Bars On 8-hours (12:00PM - 8:00PM) Air control: 69F-82F (76F AVG) (Lights On) 66F (Lights Off) 55%-70% (70% AVG) humidity (Lights On) 60%-75% RH (Lights Off) ~1288PPM CO2 (Lights On) ~793PPM CO2 (Lights Off) Day 50 - March 31, 2021 Deficiency Issues: Still having issues with what looks like Zinc deficiency. Also found 4 of 5 fan leaves with Calcium deficiency over the last couple of days. Runoff is PH 5.8 and EC is 0.78. EC in runoff has been very low. I'm pretty confident it's not a PH issue at this point. Seems plants are rapidily soaking up the nutrients in the water. I also found 8 or 9 fan leaves with slight nutrient burn a few days ago. Nutrient burn seems to have tapered off and haven't noticed any spreading. Going to try adding an additional watering to the schedule to see what happens. I'm hesitant to mix stronger nutrients due to nutrient burn I started to see earlier this week. At the same time, need to figure out the cause of the nutrient deficiencies. I'm currently using the Light Feeding Schedule from Mills Nutrients (says "light", but is still 2.06 EC including 0.54 EC for water + CalMag) Need to switch to flower soon but need to figure out deficiency issues before the switch. Defoliation: * Removed quite a bit of fan leaves suffocating nodes. Girls are 10lbs lighter. Despite the nutrient issues, the girls have been filling out fast. Did a timelapse over the past couple days and can see significant growth in a short period. Gave Foliar Spray Foliar Spray: * 1 Gallon RO Water (EC 0.08) * 10ML CalMag+ per Gallon * 0.5ML Mills Nutrients Vitalize per gallon * PH 6.0 * EC 1.19 Watering: 03:00AM-3:10AM ~0.33 gallons per pot 11:00AM-11:10AM ~0.33 gallons per pot 8:00PM-8:10PM ~0.33 gallons per pot Reservoir: * tested 11:30PM * 2.06 EC * 5.9 PH * 73.40F * Topped off to approximately 20-gallons Lights: * Gavita LEDs On 18-hours (10:00AM - 4:00AM) ** 10:00AM Lights On (100%) ** 11:00AM Reduced intensity to 50% for foliar spray ** 12:00PM Increase intensity to 75% ** 1:00PM Increased intensity to 100% * Gavita LEDs Off 6-hours (4:00AM - 10:00AM) * UV Bars On 8-hours (12:00PM - 8:00PM) Air control: 69F-82F (77F AVG) (Lights On) 66F (Lights Off) 55%-70% (67% AVG) humidity (Lights On) 60%-75% RH (Lights Off) ~1574PPM CO2 (Lights On) ~880PPM CO2 (Lights Off)

This Update came a little bit late cuz time issues but here is it :) Last week i had solution issues and the plants go very fast in bad leaf color. The Solution got too warm in the tanks and the water got a bad smell too. I changed the water and made again the 3rd week nutrition and turned up the fan to get a few degrees colder it worked very well. Roots are so far doing nice and have no burns or rotten parts on nice and white. Then i installed the second light in. The week before i give them 400 W MH and 100 W LED. Now we have 2x 600W and 100 W LED each one turned down to 250 W and the going good. But i had only 1 bulb m MH and so im now have a mixed light end of this week i give them 1 tsp Mineral Magic over the stem to get them stronger Mostly of them are Topped and have not bad mooding on the growing stage of the plants. I hope on get a few Tips on what we can do better on the System Best Regards :) and Good Groow @all

Week 7 March 26 -Doing a bit of LST just letting them grow keeping the VPD between 1.0-1.1 - Got some tacoing on a few of them but starting to see that’s genetics as the other three are doing well with the temps and humidity -got a runt in the corner here but we are gonna let her ride -also have a sharia law clone from last run and a Cerezaz clone from last run going with these ladies to fill out the tent -looking to trellis these ladies to keep em under control because I can’t flip em yet cause I got a male flowering so it’s gonna be at least 2-3 weeks before I can flip -other than that the tent started smelling like a car garage just oil and fuel hoping for some more sour notes come flower

👑 Godfather OG – Pheno A Week 9 | The Queen Is Getting Loud Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 💚🌱 And this week, our demanding Queen has something very interesting to say. She's still demanding. She's still not giving me that deep, lush green that I personally love seeing. She's still one of the girls that makes me pay a little more attention. But... she's growing. She's building. She's developing beautiful flowers. And there's one thing she has absolutely no intention of keeping quiet about anymore: her smell. 👃🔥 This girl is becoming loud. Very loud. In fact, at the moment, she's carrying the strongest aroma I've found anywhere in the tent. And that has my attention. 👑 A Quick Recap — Our Demanding Queen If you've been following Godfather OG Pheno A from the beginning, you'll already know that she has never exactly been the easiest girl in the room. She's one of the tallest plants in the 8×8 Adventure, sitting around 169 cm, and she's consistently been one of the more demanding phenotypes when it comes to nutrition and overall attention. But that's also what makes her fascinating. Because we're not giving her a special environment. We're not building a separate feeding programme just for her. We're not changing the rules of the experiment because one plant asks for something different. We have twelve different genetics and more than twenty plants sharing the same ecosystem. They receive the same general treatment. They share the same room. They share the same environmental conditions. They share the same reservoir. And then... they show us who they are. Godfather OG Pheno A is showing us that she is a Queen with an appetite. 😂👑 🌿 Still Growing. Still Building. The most important thing this week? She's still moving forward. She's still developing. She's still putting on flower. And when I look at her within the tent, she has that presence that makes her difficult to ignore. She's tall. She's commanding. She's reaching through the canopy. And those flowering sites are becoming increasingly impressive. The plant isn't sitting still waiting for us to figure her out. She's busy. She's building. She's doing exactly what a plant in this stage should be doing: developing her flowers. And honestly, that's what I care about most. 🍃 That Green... Now, I'm not going to pretend. She's not wearing the green I like. 😂 I love seeing that deep, rich, lush green across the canopy. Godfather OG Pheno A isn't quite giving me that right now. Her foliage is noticeably lighter in places, and because I know how demanding she has been throughout this run, it's something I'm continuing to observe carefully. But there's a very important distinction here. Not looking exactly how I want doesn't automatically mean she's failing. She's still growing. She's still flowering. She's still producing. She's still developing. And the flowers themselves are telling us a very different story from simply looking at the colour of the leaves. So I'm not going to panic. I'm not going to create a problem just because I don't like one particular shade of green. I'm going to keep watching the entire plant. Because the plant is always more than one leaf. 🌸 And Those Flowers... This is where she really starts getting interesting. Because despite everything I've just said about the foliage... look at the flowers. Beautiful. The flower structures are developing nicely, and the plant is continuing to build along those long branches. There's increasing definition. There's increasing resin development. There's plenty of fresh pistil growth. And there's a sense that she's gradually moving from the stretching and structural-building phase into the part of flowering where the flowers themselves become the main event. That's the transition I'm watching closely now. The plant has already built the framework. Now we're waiting to see what she does with it. And I have a feeling... she's going to have something to say about that. 👑 👃 The Loudest Girl in the Tent Now let's talk about the thing that really caught me this week. The smell. Oh... She's loud. 😂🔥 At the moment, Godfather OG Pheno A is producing the strongest aroma I've encountered in the tent so far. And when you're surrounded by more than twenty plants, that's saying something. Every time I get around her, she's basically announcing: "I'm here." No introduction necessary. No invitation required. She has arrived. And this is exactly the kind of thing I love discovering as flowering progresses. Because early in the run, you can look at a plant and make all sorts of guesses. Then suddenly, somewhere along the way, the plant starts revealing another part of its identity. For Godfather OG Pheno A... that identity is becoming increasingly aromatic. She's loud. She's noticeable. And she's making me extremely curious about where this profile is going to take us as the flowers continue to mature. I'm not going to try to name the final aromatic profile yet. It's still developing. But I can tell you one thing: this girl wants to be noticed. 👑👃 🔥 The Interesting Part About This Phenotype This is where the whole phenotype-hunting concept becomes so much fun. We're watching plants under essentially the same conditions. Same room. Same lighting. Same irrigation. Same nutrition. Same general environment. And yet Godfather OG Pheno A is behaving like a completely different character. She's tall. She's demanding. She's lighter in colour than I'd prefer. And she's becoming the loudest plant in the tent. That's a personality. And I love it. Because we're not trying to force her to become something else. We're trying to discover what she already is. The Experiment Continues One of the hardest things about running a room like this is accepting that you can't make every plant happy in exactly the same way. If you're growing one plant, you can react to every little difference. But when you're running twelve genetics and more than twenty plants, the philosophy changes. We establish a consistent baseline. We provide the environment. We observe the response. And then we learn. Some plants thrive immediately. Some demand more. Some stay darker. Some become lighter. Some stretch. Some stay compact. Some become incredibly aromatic. And some... become the Queen of the room. Godfather OG Pheno A definitely seems determined to claim that crown. 👑😂 💧 Feeding & Environment The room continues following the shared feeding strategy: 🌱 Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.2 ml/L 🌱 Green Sensation – 1 ml/L 🌱 Power Buds – 1 ml/L 🌱 Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L ⚗️ Lemon Kick / pH adjustment as required And the environment remains consistent: 🌡️ Day – 29°C 🌙 Night – 25°C 💧 RH – 60% ⚗️ pH – approximately 6.0 ⚡ EC – approximately 2.0 mS/cm 💦 Solution temperature – 25°C 🌱 Substrate temperature – 26°C 💨 CO₂ – 639 ppm 💡 Light schedule – 12/12 ? Pot – 15 L 💧 Watering – approximately 1.4 L/plant/24h Again, the consistency is important. We're not changing the entire room around one phenotype. We're watching how she adapts to the same world as everybody else. And so far... she's adapting. 📸 A Small Apology About This Week's Photos Now... I have to make a confession. 😂 Somehow, somewhere along the way... I lost Godfather OG Pheno A's individual photographs for this week. Yes. The Queen has officially fired her photographer. 👑📸😂 So unfortunately, this week's update doesn't have her usual individual photo collection. And I'm genuinely sorry about that. But I don't want that to stop us from documenting her journey. We're still sharing photographs from the wider ecosystem, and we're still sharing videos from inside the tent. She's there. She's growing. She's developing. And if you've been following the diary, you can go back through the previous weeks and use those updates to identify her position and structure in the room. The full-tent photographs and videos also give you the opportunity to see her within the ecosystem she shares with all the other girls. So while I don't have her usual close-ups this week... the Queen is absolutely still here. 👑🌱 And I promise I'll try not to lose her again. 😂 🌸 The Flowers Are Her Best Argument And perhaps that's what makes this week so interesting. If I only looked at the foliage, I might say: "Hmm... I'm not completely happy with this." But then I look at the flowers. And I think: "Okay, girl..." Because she's producing. She's building. She's developing beautiful structures. She's getting increasingly frosty. And she's becoming increasingly aromatic. So once again, the plant is reminding me not to judge one characteristic in isolation. The Queen may not be dressed in the greenest dress in the ballroom... but she's certainly wearing some beautiful flowers. 👑🌸 🔍 What Am I Watching? At this stage, there are a few things I'm particularly interested in. First: How much more will she bulk? She's already developing nicely, and there's still plenty of flowering time ahead. Second: Where is that aroma going? Because she's already the loudest girl in the tent. I'm extremely curious to see how that aromatic character develops as the flowers mature. And third: How will her foliage progress? I'm continuing to watch her colour and overall plant health without jumping to conclusions. The goal isn't to make her look perfect. The goal is to understand her. That's a very different thing. 🌱 She's Teaching Me Again And this is probably the biggest lesson Godfather OG Pheno A is giving me this week. Sometimes a plant can challenge you... while still rewarding you. She can demand more attention. She can look different from what you personally prefer. She can make you question what's happening. And at the same time... she can produce beautiful flowers. She can develop an incredible aroma. She can continue growing strongly. And she can make you excited to see what happens next. That's cultivation. That's phenotype hunting. And that's why I'm enjoying this run so much. 👑 The Queen Is Still Writing Her Story So, Week 9. Approximately 169 cm. Still demanding. Still developing. Still not the deepest green in the room. But... beautiful. Beautiful flowers. Beautiful structure. Increasing frost. And the strongest smell in the tent so far. She's not finished. She's not even close. And that's what makes this so exciting. I'm genuinely curious about what happened here. What exactly is hiding inside this phenotype? What will those flowers become? How far will that aroma develop? And what will she look like when she finally decides she's done stretching and puts everything she has into finishing those flowers? I don't know yet. And honestly... I love not knowing. Because that's why we're here. To find out. 🔮 Looking Ahead For the coming week, I'm expecting the focus to continue shifting toward flower development. 🌸 More bulk. ❄️ More visible resin. 👃 More aroma. 🌿 Continued observation of the foliage. 👑 And hopefully a little less drama from our demanding Queen. 😂 But I'm not making promises on that last one. She's been demanding from the beginning. She may have earned the right to continue. For now, we'll keep the environment consistent, keep observing her response, and allow her to continue telling us what she wants to become. No forcing. No unnecessary changes. Just observation, consistency and time. 💚 Let Her Shine I may have lost her individual photographs this week... but I certainly haven't lost sight of her. She's right there in the jungle. Standing tall. Growing strong. Making flowers. Getting frosty. And making enough noise with her aroma that you don't need a photograph to know she's there. 😂👃🔥 Godfather OG Pheno A may not be giving me the lush green I personally love. She may be one of the more demanding girls in the entire room. But she's also showing me something beautiful. She's adapting. She's developing. She's producing. And she's becoming increasingly interesting with every passing week. So let's give our Queen the spotlight she deserves. The photographs may have gone missing... but the Queen certainly hasn't. 👑💚 🙏 Thank You As always, thank you so much to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. This project continues to be one of the most fascinating growing experiences I've ever had. Twelve genetics. More than twenty plants. One shared environment. And an incredible collection of personalities developing right in front of us. A huge thank you to GrowDiaries for giving growers a place to document, learn and share these journeys. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Godfather OG genetics and for giving us the opportunity to discover what these phenotypes can become. Thank you to Plagron for the nutrition supporting the room. Thank you to Future of Grow LED for powering the garden. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping keep the environment consistent. Thank you to LumiFlora for bringing additional light into the lower canopy. And finally... thank you to every single person following along. Whether you comment every week... whether you ask questions... whether you're learning... or whether you simply stop by to see what's happening inside this little jungle... thank you. 💚 I'm having an absolute blast with this run. Some days I honestly feel like Tarzan wandering around my own little jungle, checking on everybody, looking at flowers, taking photographs, discovering new smells and learning something new every time I walk through the tent. 😂🌴🌱 And Godfather OG Pheno A? She's one of the girls keeping me curious. She's demanding. She's different. She's loud. She's beautiful. And she's still writing her story. Growers Love, my friends. 👑💚🌱 See you next week, when hopefully the Queen and her photographer manage to reunite. 😂📸👑

Day 78 - Ripening a. the buds are gaining more and more weight, humidity 45% b. the resin is dripping from the buds, the amount of resin on this plant is next level c. smelling this plant when I open the tent I smell floral fruity tones Day 79 - more resin a. the glands on this plant keep growing upward and multiplying all over the buds b. buds fattening Day 80 - buds are rock hard a. the colas are very dense, even the buds down the limbs are dense! Day 81 - the smell is so strong! a. glad I use carbon filter in this box, this plant smells crazy good like most citrus weed you've ever smelled. b. I clipped a bud, dried it safely, smoked .25g in a bong and the effects are already super strong. c. trichomes are about 60% milky, a few ambers here and there, still plenty of clears to let ripen. Day 82 - her pistils are 70% brown/orange - buds are becoming blue! Video uploaded a. the colas are very tight and dense with their leaves all being yellow now, many are able to remove by hand with no effort except the huge amount of resin holding them in. I will not remove any because I will be making hash later on. b. the buds are turning a nice blue color. I will be going the distance with this plant! c. Trichomes are 80% white, 20 % clear with a few ambers here and there, still needs more time! DWC and autos always take a little longer due to the abundance of readily available nutrients in the water pool. Day 83 - ripening fast! Blue Gelato buds! a. turned lights down to 50% intensity b. will begin the flushing process tomorrow Day 84 - We will begin the flush! a. I will use Florakleen to flush the ladies for a few days, then I will harvest b. the trichome production is next level with this plant

I had alot of Fun with this Grow, and a lot of Growers, had a Story about the Strawaberry Cough. Thank you all for sharing that with me!!! I learned alot about the heritage of this Strain and its appearing in Movies and Music. Mr. Kushman itself had a great Story about Strawberry Cough, and how he got them as a Present But back to the Grow fast Germinating, Germiating Rate 100 Percent, fast grower, and then the Journey began...... One Pheno turned out with Cottoncandylike Buds , The other Pheno with Fistsized Dense Buds Booth showed a wonderful Scent, and they were a Pleasure to look One Plant is still growing Thank you @Miister_lee , for the opportunity to grow them And LEGALIZE WORLDWIDE

26.03.2024 Continue into week 4 Update firmware on TrolMaster Tent-X (3.6) Replace all filters, remove and clean drain buckets and tubing. Mix new batch with 56ml AN connoisseur AB + 4.5g Big Bud Powder + 7.5ml Silica - total 30l @ 1.34EC. NPK Ratio is 1-2-3 , Cal/Mg ratio is 4-1.5 Target EC for this week is 1.2 start and end week with 1.3. Checking plants will determine timing of strength Donne one pass off long misting (3min) with diluted solution @ 0.84@C Set new misting time @ 60s ON time Finally have time for managing canopy, pull down taller branches and position all tops to fit under screen without touching. Try ro spread them evenly across the net, top per square of net Defoliating all girls, remove all fan leaves and prune lots of smaller branches from middle. Lot of foliage is removed! After stripping humidity drop significantly (41%) , need to install humidifier again to keep RH @ 50-52% Set dehumidifier thermostat to work @ 50% RH.

Humidifier is also connected and set @ 49% Day and 45% @ night, if needed Inkbird humidity controller stop executing's automation for day/night settings. Start manually to change day/night values for now Next several days, until weekend, temperatures outside will be high , 29c max. Hope it will not raise temperature in box to much. Light is set on TrolMaster Tent-X controller to dimmed at 28c AC Infinity fans are set to AUTO mode with height temp set at 26c and high RH set at 54% Top up tank with 25ml AN connoisseur AB + 4.5g Big Bud Powder + 7.5ml Silica - total 75l @ 1.34EC PAR map 1180max/650min PPFD, VPD -1.2-1.3, DRH 50-52%, NRH 45-48%, NT-21-22c, DT-24/25.5c, Leaf temperature 22-23c, Light distance 45-55cm, CO2 700+ppm HLG Scorpion Diablo @ 80% - 45-55cm distance 60s ON time 20min OFF time @ Day Time 60s Off time 30min OFF time @ Night Time NT-Nutrient Tank - PH -5.95-, EC -1.24, Temp-21-22 29-30.03.2024 Refilled the tanks with 20l of fresh mixture. 25ml AN connoisseur A+B + 3g Big Bud Powder + 7.5ml Silica - total 20l @ 1.21EC Refilling is done in two passes, one time before light up, and second time early in morning, two houres before night time. This give additional nutrient cooling without running water chillier. Refill soulution is @ 18c Checking EC and PH 2-3 times a day. The electroconductivity values are around 1.24EC. I maintain the strength until it drops or rises. For now, I’ve caught the perfect strength, the liquid is almost static with very small oscillations in electroconductivity and PH. Replaced all filters in the system, replaced on washing… Every other day is enough, during daily cleaning there is no dirt on the filters. The girls are handling the environment well, leaves are raised as they should be, they seem like very happy plants. Formation and enlargement of flowers can be noticed with the naked eye. The wave of warm weather continues all this week. Expected temperatures for the next seven days range from 25-29c. Need to pay attention to that Raise light 10cm, top of canopy now is around 50-55cm PAR map 1180max/650min PPFD, VPD -1.2-1.3, DRH 50-52%, NRH 45-48%, NT-21-22c, DT-24/25.5c, Leaf temperature 22-23c, Light distance 45-55cm, CO2 700+ppm HLG Scorpion Diablo @ 80% - 50-55cm distance 60s ON time 20min OFF time @ Day Time 60s Off time 30min OFF time @ Night Time NT-Nutrient Tank - PH -5.95-, EC -1.24, Temp-21-22 31.03.2024 Girls totally recovered from defoliation.

Week four was definitely the week when the plants started to really grow bigger, I started some LST at my way cause even if I check thousands of videos I end it up doing what I thought was better for my plants, I perhaps was a bit late so it wasn’t stretching as I thought it would have, maybe I shouldn’t have wait this long, but again first time learning a lots.. I let the plant grow with LST only in week 4 in week 5 I introduced a scrog I made myself cause I thought that I couldn’t keep doing lst because I started too late

Was really worried the whole time through out my grow as I am a Newbie and this was my first grow. Thanks for all the help provided by users on growndiaries. Much appreciated. Had great result from my solo cup. 12.6 grams of dried bud. Time for curing and let that smell build up. Fingers crossed will taste better but smells amazing. Zesty smell when crushed. More confident for my next grow. Hopefully will be more fun and relaxing growing.
