A Note From (BAM): "This week was a battle with the environment. The plants grew like crazy, but the controller tried to sabotage us every single night. I learned more about VPD, airflow, and the limits of automation than I ever wanted to. But by the end of the week, the plants were wider, the roots were thicker, and I was in control — not the controller." --- Day 8–9: LST & Light Upgrade The FIM sites had fully healed, so I started Low Stress Training (LST) — pinning branches outward with clips to create a flat canopy. I also added the second Sanlight EVO 4-120, angling both lights inward at 40 cm. The plants responded immediately with faster growth and wider leaves. --- Day 10–11: The Fan Controller Nightmare The AC Infinity Controller 69 Pro showed a fatal flaw: every night, when VPD fell below the trigger point, it sent an OFF command to the fan — even with Minimum Speed set to 1. The tent would spike to 80% humidity and 29°C. I tried everything: lower triggers, higher minimums, different modes. Nothing fixed it. The controller simply ignores the Minimum Speed setting when it decides to turn off. The workaround: I have filed a warranty claim with AC Infinity. In the meantime, I am running the fan on a fixed manual speed to ensure continuous airflow. --- Day 12–13: Nutrient Stability & Canopy Width PPM was drifting too low (440–480), so I learned to make a concentrate (2g A + 2g B in 1L RO water) for daily top-ups. This gave me precise control without full reservoir changes. Plant PPM pH Plant 1 509 5.91 Plant 2 519 5.94 Canopy width is now ~45 cm per plant, height 30–33 cm. Roots are thick, white, and starting to fill the buckets. --- Week 2 Summary Table Metric Start End PPM ~570 509 / 519 pH 5.8–6.0 5.91 / 5.94 Canopy width ~30 cm ~45 cm Plant height 27–30 cm 30–33 cm Light setup 1 light at 50% 2 lights at 75% Controller status Intermittent failures Warranty claim filed --- What's Next (Week 3) · Final 2 weeks of veg: Let the LST branches stretch and fill the canopy. Target width: 60–70 cm per plant. · Full reservoir change tomorrow (Sunday): Fresh Sensi Grow A+B, CalMag, Voodoo Juice. PPM target 550. · Controller workaround: Run fan on fixed manual speed until replacement arrives. · Flip to flower: Approx. 30 May — this will be the last veg diary entry before bloom nutrients. --- Closing Thought for Week 2 "The plants forgave the controller's glitches. The roots kept growing. The canopy kept spreading. And I learned that the best automation tool in the tent is not a chip — it's a grower who pays attention." — Master Verdant

Today was only water to clean the soil

I am now putting my weekly comments in the videos. Watch the videos for updates.

The final Week, before harvest! She has some massive towering buds! 2.5 gallons of water is lasting this plant 5-6 days before drying out, and ready for more.. She was harvested instead of being watered!

Hello 👋🏻 Readers, The triplets are coming along very nicely😀 I've been keeping the RH roughly around 34% in day time and 45-48% at night. Last Sunday night(march 26th) upon one of my visit into the grow room to check the RH % i was received by and strong pungent berry/skunk mix odour... It almost brought tears to my eyes😁 So i have been using the intake fan since and also it helps keeping the Humidity down to the proper flowering appropriate range, also i still keeping the room's window cracked open during daytime with some fresh cold Canadian CO2(air) coming in and that way the temperature doesn't rises to high in the grow tent. To help allege the numerous trips into the grow room to verify the Humidity and Temperature I ordered online a WiFi humidity/temperature control sensor system, which at first is for mainly being able to verify to humidity and temperature levels with the app on my phone😅 order is out for delivery as i am writing this weekly update😁 News from the clones, they're out of the grow tent as of Friday, potted them in coco and perlite for now and trying to get them to back at VEG as them tiny buggers flipped and have tiny pistils on and top leaf turned black, since I don't have a back up tent nor a grow light i am switching them from the kitchen in the morning and dining room on afternoon....😂😅 Hopefully they'll restart VEG🤞🏻 That all said ... thanks for stopping by and hope you enjoy the pictures and the video. Feel free to leave a comment and hit the like button and wish you all a great week and keep on growing!! 👊🏻😃

Week 1 sretch and lollipopped

Week 8 slowly but surely … starting to get smells from both .. 👌🏽

The harvest is in! 🌿✨ The buds have turned out absolutely stunning – dense, frosty, and bursting with trichomes. The aroma and flavor are something truly special: a delicate blend of cherries with a refreshing hint of mint 🍒🍃. The high is incredibly potent, deeply relaxing, and body-focused – the perfect companion for unwinding in the evening 🌌💤. These cuttings have truly delivered, and despite the challenges along the way, the results are impressive. I harvested them at the perfect moment, with fully milky trichomes, ensuring peak potency and a balanced effect 💎✨. Thanks to everyone who followed this journey – stay tuned for more updates and new adventures. Until then, enjoy the vibes and happy growing! 🌺📸 --- Die Ernte ist da! 🌿✨ Die Buds sind einfach wunderschön geworden – dicht, frostig und voller Trichome. Das Aroma und der Geschmack sind etwas ganz Besonderes: ein leichter Hauch von Kirschen, kombiniert mit einer erfrischenden Minznote 🍒🍃. Das High ist unglaublich stark, tief entspannend und vor allem körperbetont – perfekt, um den Abend ausklingen zu lassen 🌌💤. Diese Stecklinge haben wirklich abgeliefert, und trotz der Herausforderungen unterwegs bin ich mit dem Ergebnis sehr zufrieden. Ich habe sie genau zum richtigen Zeitpunkt geerntet, bei vollständig milchigen Trichomen, um maximale Potenz und eine ausgewogene Wirkung zu gewährleisten 💎✨. Vielen Dank an alle, die diesen Grow begleitet haben – bleibt dran für weitere Updates und neue Abenteuer. Bis dahin, genießt die Vibes und happy growing! 🌺📸

The plants looks gorgeous after 17 days from planted in the pots, these 3 plants are probably the biggest ones in this SOG with 29 autoflower plants, very good strain, looks like it's very solid, all of the 3 have developed big leafs in 2 weeks! Let's see how this ladies keep developing! Flower is near! ❤️💚

Hi all my growers friends) The buds are add many mass. They looking good as for me) the leaves starting yellow extremely fast. I think that harvest will be in 7-10 days. So about 1 week with light and 3 days with fully dark and finish). So I will add photos every 2 days. See you later...;) Day 66. I see progress every day... 8 days till harvest

NOTES: Keeping the pH between 5,8-6,0 and EC at around 1,4-1,6 depending on system. EC at 1,5 seems to be optimal and my measurements are staying pretty steady at that level. Humidity is lowered to around 50% if I can. The tops are now at around 45-60cm height from the soil. Continuing the last heavier defoliation/pruning process that I started yesterday at the end of 2nd flowering week. I saw no signs of mold or any other issues as I went through the plants. After this week I'm going to change the nutrient solutions on the tanks and fill them with fresh nutrients with minor changes: Dropping the amount of Grow from 1,5ml to 0,5ml and increasing the amount of Bloom from 1,5ml to 2,5ml. After the change I'm only going to refill the tanks without adding any Grow and will instead increase the amount of Bloom to 3ml. Propably a one more change of fresh nutrients until flushing with Final Solution prior harvesting. Day64 (19.12.) Some more defoliation focusing on the upper growth revealing bud sites below them and keeping off the moisture. Already got a trash bag almost full of leaves since they've been pretty bushy plants on average. Day65 (20.12.) Continuing the last defoliation process. Day66 (21.12.) Continuing the last defoliation process, pretty satisfied with the results so far. Light penetration and airflow have increased greatly so I don't have to worry that much about humidity or possible mold any longer. Each strain has started flowering, all plants are females and buds have started to develop. Defoliating didn't seem to stress the plants as much as I thought it would. Day67 (22.12.) Day68 (23.12.) Refilled and added some nutrients with a stronger Bloom/Grow -ratio (~4:1) and left my girls to enjoy the Christmas Holidays as I did. I'll be gone for around three days, after that I'll change to new fresh nutrients as I mentioned before. One Ayahuasca Purple seems to be ahead of others, and a few other ones have clearly started to develop some buds too, rest of the plants are following closely behind. Each strain has some truly astonishing individuals, and I think Ayahuasca's have shown most variety between different plants. Overall everything looks pretty good I think. Hopefully can say the same after a couple of days as I come back. Happy holidays everyone! Day69 (24.12.) Day70 (25.12.) I added another Led light to my tent just before the lights turned off. Everything looks amazing!

Questa panty punch inizia a ingrossare i fiorellini.bene bene... Ancora non si sentono profumi ma la prossima settimana esploderà di buoni odori in tutto il box😜💪👍

Hi Growers. Everything is going well. Earlier this week I did another super light feeding, the same as last week. I raised the light to 50” and increased the light to 80% and will adjust accordingly per plant and environmental needs. I did notice a bit of yellowing on the PE and yesterday decided to do a stronger feed and go from there, but no problems with the Blue Dream. I don’t want them starving and getting stressed into flower. After the first light feeds they popped up nicely so I’m interested to see how they like the higher feed. Environment wise, I turned on the oscillating fan to just help them strengthen their stocks and branches and still have the humidifier on. Temps & RH are good, no hot temp is a bit cool but it’s only 4 hrs. What week do you growers start training autos?? Thanks for stopping, leave a like or comment if you’d like. I appreciate them. Happy Growing 🌱

Let plants dry out leaves started yellowing temps are very high so didn't Wana wait too long for harvest 😔

Die Kleine hat sich nach der Entlaubung letzte Woche wieder super gemacht! Ich lass sie noch ’ne Woche schieben, dann geht’s in die Blüte 😎🌱
