🍋 Project Blue Tent – Folder 14B Pickled Lemon Haze F1 – Pheno B | Week 2 – Finding Her Rhythm Every phenotype tells its own story. Although both plants share the same genetics and are growing under identical conditions, nature always leaves its own signature. That is exactly why Project Blue Tent was created—to document each phenotype individually and discover the subtle differences that make every plant unique. This project is built around consistency. Both phenotypes are grown inside the complete Zamnesia ecosystem, rooted in Plagron Premium Coco Grow Bags and fed exclusively with the Plagron Hydro line. Every environmental parameter, every feeding adjustment, and every observation is recorded so this diary becomes more than just a grow log—it becomes a learning experience. This week marked one of the most important moments of early vegetative growth: transplant day. Thanks to the outstanding root development inside the starter pot, Pheno B was ready to move into her permanent home, where she can now fully explore the coco substrate and begin building the foundation for the weeks ahead. ⸻ 🌱 Environment & Ecosystem Everything inside the Blue Tent is designed to remain as stable and repeatable as possible. • Light Schedule: 18 hours ON with 280PPFD / 6 hours OFF • Growing Medium: Plagron Premium Coco Grow Bags • Nutrient Line: Plagron Hydro A & B + Hydro Roots • Water pH: 5.83 • EC: 1.26 mS/cm • Reservoir Temperature: 23.1°C Environmental Conditions: • Temperature: 29°C • Relative Humidity: 68% These conditions provide excellent transpiration while encouraging vigorous vegetative growth and rapid root expansion throughout the coco. ⸻ 🥥 Why the Starter Pot Is Buried Inside the Coco Bag One detail that often surprises people in this project is that I don’t remove the starter pot area from the final grow bag. Instead, I bury the entire root ball directly into the centre of the hydrated coco. There are several reasons for this approach. First, it completely eliminates transplant shock. The roots never need to recover from disturbance—they simply continue growing exactly as they were. Second, the original root zone remains perfectly intact, allowing moisture levels to transition gradually into the fresh coco rather than forcing the plant to adapt overnight. Finally, positioning the starter pot in the centre naturally creates a perfectly symmetrical root expansion. Instead of favoring one direction, the roots are encouraged to colonize the entire grow bag evenly, producing a balanced foundation for the remainder of the grow. Sometimes the simplest techniques deliver the biggest long-term advantages. ⸻ 🌿 Root Development When removing the starter pot, the first thing that stood out was the incredible density of healthy white roots wrapping around the entire root ball. Every side of the cube showed active growth. The roots were bright white, thick, and evenly distributed, exactly what I hope to see before transplanting into the final container. Healthy roots create healthy plants. Strong roots improve nutrient uptake, increase resistance to environmental stress, and provide the engine that will support explosive vegetative growth over the coming weeks. Looking at this root system, it’s clear Pheno B made excellent use of every cubic centimetre of her starter pot before graduating into her final home. ⸻ 🌿 Meet Pheno B While her sister impressed me with compact structure and balanced symmetry, Pheno B immediately revealed a different personality. She has a little more stretch through the stem, creating slightly wider internodal spacing while still maintaining excellent structural strength. Her leaves are broad, richly coloured, and beautifully layered around the main stem, giving her a vigorous, energetic appearance. The newest growth is bursting from the centre with exceptional colour and excellent leaf formation, showing that she has settled comfortably after transplant. One detail that really caught my attention is her natural openness. Instead of stacking tightly, her branching already hints at a phenotype that may naturally create better airflow and light penetration as she matures. Every day she seems to move with confidence, reaching upward while expanding outward at the same time. It’s still far too early to know how she’ll express herself during flowering, but she’s already demonstrating a personality of her own—and that’s exactly why I love documenting individual phenotypes. ⸻ 💧 Feeding Strategy After transplant, I continued feeding with the Plagron Hydro line, allowing the young roots to immediately colonise the fresh coco surrounding the original root ball. Current feed: • Plagron Hydro A & B • Plagron Hydro Roots Maintaining a stable EC together with a properly adjusted pH ensures nutrients remain immediately available while encouraging continuous root expansion into the surrounding substrate. Rather than pushing rapid top growth, the goal right now is to build an exceptionally healthy root system that will support vigorous development throughout the vegetative stage. ⸻ 🔍 Looking Ahead The transplant has gone exactly as planned, and Pheno B has already resumed active growth without showing any signs of stress. Over the next week I’ll be watching closely as the roots continue to colonise the coco bag and the canopy begins to expand. As her structure develops, I’ll also start evaluating her branching pattern and natural growth habits to see how this phenotype differs from her sister. Those small differences are often what make phenotype hunting so rewarding. For now, she looks healthy, confident, and ready to show what she’s capable of. ⸻ 💙 Final Thoughts Watching two sisters grow side by side under identical conditions is one of the most fascinating parts of this journey. Same genetics. Same environment. Same feeding. Yet each plant begins writing her own story. Pheno B is already showing a unique character—slightly more open in structure, full of energy, and growing with quiet confidence. It’s exciting to watch her develop, and I can’t wait to see how those early traits translate once flowering begins. The adventure is only getting started. ⸻ 🙏 Thank You A huge thank you to everyone following Project Blue Tent and sharing this journey with me.

Growers love and see you all in the next update. 🌱💙

Week 6 begins for LSD, week 5 was a great trip! This lady looks healthy and happy, buds sites are bulking up and getting frosty! She also has a sweet aroma. Thanks for stopping by, tune in next week for another episode of growfessor theatre. 👽🌳🔥

Very rough week. I noticed discoloration of fan leaves which led to a lot of different deficiencies. Thought I was going to lose my plants.

Và tutto bene però mi piacerebbe avere un confronto con altri grower, scrivetemi qualche Consiglio o qualche opinione grazie a tutti 💚

She is much prettier than she was a week ago :) I remembered that I have my first grow light, which is more compact and it will give me more space, so I changed my light, now the girl's side branches get light too:) I add a lot of video memes, because I really want to win Iphone16 pro ;) and those who don't take risks don't drink champagne:) good luck to everyone.

Die Ladys haben sich hervorragend entwickelt 😄. Die Lichtintensität wurde von 25 % auf 50 % erhöht, mit einem Abstand von etwa 60 cm zur Krone 👑. 💡PPFD ca. 500 Happy Growing 🙏👋

Si it's been a pretty good week. Getting very impatient at the moment. Trying not to dwell on my plants too much, I just need to leave them to finish maturing. Iv pretty much started flush now for 2 weeks so that will take me to the end of week 8. Update - Monday So my thoughts have been drifting towards the next round. Iv been writing a list and so far Iv decided I want to explore organics further so will most likely be amending my soil with dry amendments such as different meals. I also would like to make better use of microbes so I will most likely be using at least recharge. Hopefully mammoth p also but I'll buy that one as I need it further down into the bloom phase. Something else I also really want to try next cycle is the use of other crops to help with IPM and also help feed the soil. Two I have decided to use already are basil, which is meant to be great for keeping bugs away and also garlic. I want to try and use crops that I will also want to eat that's why I decided on garlic. I'd also really like to try and grow a couple vegetable plants alongside my cannabis but I am a little unsure of which plants will also grow happily with the same light cycle as cannabis. IRS a bit of a strange light cycle for here in England so I'm unsure of what to grow but I'd love it if I could grow some squash, corguettes or aubergine. These are my staples for my diet so these would be incredibly handy. I am about to move so will have a dedicated small room or large walk in cupboard, depending on how u look at it. I would love to be able to make slightly better use of the space and if I can feed myself even a few times from them as well as them improve my cannabis via post resistance and resin production (they use companion crops in lavender production to raise essential oil production) then it seems silly not to do so. It will be I interesting to pick out cover crops for my 12/12 larger flowering space, but also for my 18/6 space to grow alongside the autos I plan to grow in there. Obviously different light cycles will let me do different plants. I think it will take more initial planning on my part, but I feel once I have it all dialled in after 4 or 5 runs it will be a lot cheaper and much more sense sustaining. If anyone reads this and knows of any decent potential companion crops I can use please message me. Like I say garlic and basil so far but have heard beans are a great way to get lots of nitrogen in the soil so they might be a good one for the 18/6 tent. Also I was thinking and I'm a little unsure of when I'm going to want to harvest so I've decided to leave a week between harvesting each plant. First one will be pulled this weekend at week 7 of flower then week 8 of flower for the next and the last will be week 9. That way I can sample over the coming weeks and decide which I prefer for the next cycle. Update - Tuesday got my jewelers loupe today but i think im going to buy a usb microscope instead, as its really difficult to hold it steady enough for long enough to be able to tell whats going on with the trichs. i tried to shoot a few pics through it on my phone with limited success. I think there are about half trichs cloudy atm, maybe slightly less but like i say its hard to tell. Update - Friday Ok well yesterday i caved and harvested and hung plant 1 of 3. Couldn't resist. Now that I have this one to fuxk about with I'm less inclined to want to bring the others down. Smells unbelievable pinot, fruity and skunky. Have just used a cardboard box with lines strung through the top to hang from. The plants were so small and had no side branches so I had to tie it to the stem from the lines. Not a lot on it I dont think but the main cola was pretty chunky. Interestingly the topped plant had more tops obviously and also has some mad side branching that's at the same level as the main colas and they are all about the same size as the one cola on the non topped plant. I half expected it to just be double the size of the topped but less of them. Note to self for future reference: Always top plants Use bigger pots

Hi to everyone who watches Report. The ninth week of flowering began there. Blueberries look and smell. Deliciously. Follow the advice of the master. I decided not to radically remove the leaves and I removed only the largest ones. I prepare the plants for the log house so I stop using mineral water for a while

Day 22 white pistils 👍🌱 only had root juice and bio grow gonna remove root juice and add molasses this week at one teaspoon per litre she shows that shes not hungry no nute burn yet small signs that she can do with abit less nitrogen I'm not gonna lower my nitrogen at the sametime I'm not gonna up it either she been getting 1l feeds every 48 hours gonna up it to 1.5l keep an eye out for next update 🌱🧞‍♂️🍾🕹️🎮 I've been training her LST since day 14 and folding looks like shes gonna have some good bud sites 🍾🧞‍♂️ I've put the light schedule to 20on 4off so he can get rested during flower keep the stress down to a minimum 🤓

I harvested at 30% amber trics..it snuck up on me fast, I assumed she was an 8 week strain at minimum but I was wrong..i don't take wet weight of buds so I'll update final weight in approx 10 days, happy growing!

Green sensation made its effect and now we can see some resin dropped in the flowers. They have also gained some weight and size. The plants keeps looking good and healthy at the moment.

Well as always I'm super happy with what the team over at @fastbuds are doing ! To be honest they were my first auto flowering brand I tried and they sponsors that grow because they like helping growers. Easy to approach and great customer service I have not been disappointed yet and this strain here is a keeper . I wish I could bottle the scent up and keep it forced 🙂. In the beginning I wanted to grow her out in a Christmas themed container do she was put into a snowman ⛄ deal placed into a 2 gallon pot . The soil and all additives are organic , living soil a Canadian company blend . She honestly was knocked out twice from her container and her size is tall but not many buds I stressed her out a lot . If she wouldn't have fallen out and been in a 4-5 gallon container then I would be even happier . The scent alone makes up for the size I could smell it all day . Never have I smelt an auto flowering strain like this before . Over fruity like ripened strawberries and lots of gas to be had as well . Today I decided to chop her down and make room for the next generation a head . The fact is that I enjoy all strains and don't care whether it's an auto or a photoperiod this company makes some fine plants and have been in my garden for almost two years now they are my go to auto flowering company ..cheers We got a smoke report going now and it's a bomb smoke I can't believe this was what I got . So much fruity and earthy undertones with such sticky buds I'm in love .. wish I had this whole plant in my garden it's fire smoke a great indica buzz

This is final harvest week in the growroom Plants are coming down all around me. As always I strip the plants down and put them back under the lights for a few days then I cut them down a hang them by the toes until around 20% humidity which is still a little wet but I like to start the sweating early so it slows the drying down a little and starts the cure Thanks for stopping by and for following along with me on another grow....
