Things are going well. Very good root growth. The two new main stems have grown enough to be tied down for Low Stress Training. I don't think I'll top again. I want to see how fast I can get a good canopy with DWC, and see if Manifold-style training can get me a similar shape to the Mainline I did last year where I lost a ton of time from topping 4 times and doing a bunch of pruning to maintain a certain shape. I set the lights to 18/6 to encourage some rest and regrowth, and frankly to save myself a bit of light and noise at night. The reservoir is still full so I'm going to leave it this week and change out the water next week. The leaves are looking a bit stressed so I raised the light and moved the fan back a bit. I have a window fan pulling air out while there's no smell but I think I'll need to switch that to intake, turn on the exhaust and replace the jet with an oscillating fan. There is a fan on the cool tube for my light as well. I think I need to hang something heavier on the front to dampen the sound. All the fans are getting loud for my small apartment. Lol I topped it again the next day. I have wires tying down all the main branches. I think it's worthwhile to spend the time in veg making a good canopy. I'm following the instructions for Nebula's Manifold technique but I haven't done any pruning yet except for the topping itself. I have a vision of what I want taking form. June 16 I checked the pH and it was 6.5 so I brought it down to 5.5. I'm going to change out the water and nutes tomorrow. It needs a top-up so I'll just change out the whole thing tomorrow. I'm leaving out a bucket of water overnight for the chlorine to evaporate.

|»» LOG DISCLAIMER: Not intended as a grow guide. Grow log entries are usually posted 3 weeks later and are for my learning reference. ««| Introduction - Week 14 Summary - Ensign's log, stardate 17535.7, Wow what a week of growing! Ending the veg phase healthy and strong! Wow the garden is thriving! Started the week with a compost tea brew and wow growth exploded with vigor! By the end of the week, both Heady OG and TKO have filled in the scrog netting and the canopy is more than ready for the two-week stretch! Also slightly increased VPD levels. As for the veg tent, been on auto-pilot. Basic super-cropping and topping to keep the canopy low and even. The Heady OG and TKO clones are still rooting in the propagation dome and plan on check for roots next week. Anyways, the 12/12 flip begins tomorrow! Maximum warp Ensign! Engage!

Late night shift in the garden and the ladies are looking beautiful! --- Heady OG (BX1 #1) is filling in the front quadrants nicely with green and perky growth! --- TKO has filled in the back quadrants and she is more than ready to be flipped to flower! Growth is getting a bit crowded, but wow she is green and healthy! --- Time to start tucking! - [+00:16]: Trained and tucked all top growth under the scrog netting. --- Wow the canopy is looking great! --- Heady OG still has a bit more room to spread, but TKO is starting to get crowded with nodes. A good problem I suppose. --- Since this is the last week of veg before flipping to flower, need to start prepping for the stretching phase. - [+00:19]: Checked the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: ------------------ [ 4x4 MAIN TENT ] --------------- ------ 55% - [CH01 FT » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 37% - [CH02 FB » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 47% - [CH03 BT » G20 - TKO] ------ 48% - [CH04 BB » G20 - TKO] ------------------ [ 3x3 VEG TENT ] ---------------- ------ 40% - [CH05 BL » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#1] ------ 42% - [CH06 BR » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#2] ------ 45% - [CH07 FL » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #1] ------ 40% - [CH08 FR » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #2] --------- Veg: 38% - 45% | Flower: 45% - 55% --------- General: 30% [Dry] «| 45 - 60% [Moist] |» 70% [Wet] - [+00:20]: Checked the 3x3 veg tent. --- Mothers are vegging along beautifully!

Been researching more on compost teas and with about week before the flip to flower, think it’s time to brew up some compost tea! --- Using the TeaLab brewing rig to bubble and mix the stew! --- Going to attempt to brew a fungal dominant tea using a modified compost tea recipe from Dr. Elaine Ingham. --- Unlike most compost teas, her recipe lacks molasses and sugars which promotes a more fungal dominant brew instead of anaerobic bacterial microbes. --- Okay let's start brewing! --- Assembled and installed the TeaLab brewing rig into a 5-gallon bucket and secured the unit using a garden support wire. --- Have a few empty buckets under the main brew bucket for insulation. Not really needed (pretty warm in the lung room), but why not. --- If the pump ever fails, to prevent flood-backs, made sure to place the unit above the water level and resting above the brew bucket. - [10:37]: Filled the 5-gallon bucket with 1-gallon of RO water. --- Plugging the pump in to start the bubbling! --- Have to say that the unit is a bit louder than anticipated, but wow the bubbles are quite vigorous and could not achieve the same level of aeration with air-stones. - [10:46]: Time to pre-condition the water! --- Since I'm using RO water, both chlorine and chloramine shouldn't be an issue. But to neutralize any remaining chlorine and chloramine, going to brew with humic acid for a bit. ------ Added 1/32tsp of Big 6 Micronutrients [+ Humic Acid] ------ Added 1/2tsp of Pure Protein Dry [Fish Hydrolysate Aminos] --------- [ BREWED FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES ] - [10:57]: Okay! Time for microbes and fungi! ------ Added 1/64tsp of Beauveria Bassiana Plus ------ Added 1/8tsp of: --------- Mycrobe Complete --------- Bio-Phos --------- Great White - [11:10]: Alright!

Heady OG is filling in the tent beautifully! --- Wow TKO is completely filled with tops and she needs to be flipped to flower! She is going to be a beast in a week! Going to be an epic flower cycle! --- Time to tuck and pluck! - [18:58]: Tucked the top growth under the scrog netting. --- Defoliated more of the larger fan leaves. --- Cleaned the bottom for both girls. --- Mulched the trimmings. --- Now both ladies have clean legs! --- Wow TKO’s main stalk is thick! Really wish I started her in a 30-gallon. Oh well. A 20-gallon should still be more than enough soil. I think. --- Anyways! - [19:25]: Checked the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: ------------------ [ 4x4 MAIN TENT ] --------------- ------ 49% - [CH01 FT » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 37% - [CH02 FB » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 47% - [CH03 BT » G20 - TKO] ------ 48% - [CH04 BB » G20 - TKO] ------------------ [ 3x3 VEG TENT ] ---------------- ------ 42% - [CH05 BL » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#1] ------ 40% - [CH06 BR » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#2] ------ 40% - [CH07 FL » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #1] ------ 41% - [CH08 FR » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #2] --------- Veg: 38% - 45% | Flower: 45% - 55% --------- General: 30% [Dry] «| 45 - 60% [Moist] |» 70% [Wet] - [19:26]: Quickly checked on the auto-watering system. --- System is still charged and no leaks or kinks found in the tubing. --- All WittFlow units are also connected. Although 2 units are getting low. - [19:42]: Okay time to feed the compost tea! --- The compost tea has been brewing for about 8hrs. --- Before feeding the tea, ------ Added 1/8tsp of: --------- Quillaja Saponaria Extract [60] --------- Recharge --------- Lotus Cal/Mag ------ Added 1tsp of Horticultural Coconut --------- [ BREWED AGAIN FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES ] - [19:57]: Okay! Tea is ready! Let’s go! --- Unhooked and removed the compost bag before squeezing the water out (best I could). - [20:15]: Emptied the compost into a plastic bin. --- Top-dressed the compost onto the top of both the 20-gallon and 30-gallon pot in the 4x4 tent. - [20:28]: Time to feed! --- Poured 6 cups straight through a plastic coffee filter and into a pump sprayer. - [20:55]: Misted the 20-gallon pot’s straw mulch. --- Sprayed the straw evenly. --- Repeated this process for the 30-gallon pot. --- Also swapped out the yellow sticky traps. --- The remaining solution (~2 cups) was poured into a pitcher and used on the house plants. --- Wow using a coffee filter has completely eliminated the clogging issue I was getting with the popcorn tea (almost bought a new pump). Will be using the filter from now on for all future teas. - [21:00]: Checked the 3x3 veg tent. --- Ooo yea! Vegging mamas are looking both flat healthy! --- Swapped out the yellow sticky traps. Pots are looking great and no signs of flooding! - [21:07]: Checked on the propagation dome, --- To refresh the air, lifted the top off for a bit. --- Growth looks green! --- Heady is droopy but leaves look healthy. --- TKO is looking perky, but does have signs of yellowing. Not too worried because this can be a sign of rooting. --- Using a spray bottle, misted the top growth with RO water. --- Opened another vent. Now both side vents are open. - [21:15]: Checked the humidifiers. --- Tanks are still full and no leaks found. --- Wow what a day! Since this was my first compost tea brew, hoping I didn’t frack anything up. --- Anyways, Onwards Ensign!

They are growing healthy. They all recovered from the issues, but they are all small.. They are drinking a lot lately, I've been struggling to keep the temperature below 27/28°. The only plant who didn't had any agressive movimentation, handling, whatever, has 90 cm, huge.

Didn’t expect the stretch to be so huge given the genetics. Like 10 cm in 3 days! Let’s see. Put in a dehumidifier, trying to reach optimal humidity of 60% for this stage. 02/01 The stretch is really strong. 75 cm by 02/01 04/01 I have been doing just minimal pruning/defoliation during the veg stage. I guess it was the reason why the stretch is so strong as the main colas try to reach the light. And there is a lot of weak side-shoots which make the plants really messy. Did some minor pruning today, because I don’t want to stress the plants much during early flowering. I’m going to remove all the side-shoots in two weeks when the stretch is over. Next time I should do more pruning early, before the flip.

Hello, fin de semaine 4 de croissance. Toujours une grosse différence entre les 5 plantes. Ce qui m’encourage à travailler la bouture pour les prochaines fois, pour ne plus avoir une telle différence 😞 J’ai donc réalisé un topping sur 3 plantes, les plus grandes. Et aussi une défoliation pour laisser la lumière atteindre les parties basses qui demande à grandir. Ce qui semble plutôt bien fonctionné pour l’instant. Pour le moment il n’y a plus rien à faire, juste les laisser récupérer et se développer. J’avais poussé mon ec jusque 1.7, mais j’ai l’impression que c’est trop fort compte tenu de leur stade, je suis donc repassé à 1.5/1.6. Nous verrons si elles réagisse bien. J’ai aussi changé la lampe. Je suis passé sur la slim600h à 50%, soit 300w à 100cm. Elles semblent apprécier. Voilà c’est tout pour cette semaine... Happy grow...😎

Hello growmies! Welcome to week four of An Epsilon Adventure! The girls are already transitioning into flower, I will get some photos of that later in the week. Massive thanks to both Shogun and Royal Queen Seeds for sponsoring this grow. Daily Updates: ### Week 4 Day 1 11:00 16/7 Removed some lower growth. ### Week 4 Day 2 23:00 17/7 Tallest plants were showing signs of heat stress so I have raised the light about 30cm more. Unfortunately this now means the lower plants aren't getting as much light as they could, so I have put the cycle back to 20h (I may even increase it). ### Week 4 Day 3 14:00 18/7 Photographed. ### Week 4 Day 3 19:00 18/7 Fertigated 2l. Okay these girls are now starting to concern me a little on the basis that they are supposed to grow to "50-70cm". At just over 3 weeks old the shortest of these girls is 53cm, the tallest (plant 3) is now 76cm tall. The worrying thing is they do not at all look like they are slowing down and as they are just pre-flowering now, the flowering stretch hasn't even started. So I need some genuine advice here now: Do I keep the faith and hope that they don't exceed the space I have? Do I top or super crop them now? These ladies are beastly, at the end of the week I am going to take some individual videos and more photos to really try and capture how magnificently well these girls are doing. I think I may be in the process of growing the biggest Epsilon F1's so far? Exciting to find out! ### Week 4 Day 4 21:00 19/7 James has assured me they wont go much more than 85 so I am not going to mess with them. They are due a defoliation at the end of this week though. Measured each plant as follows: Plant 1: 81cm Plant 2: 75cm Plant 3: 80cm Plant 4: 67cm Plant 5: 59cm Plant 6: 58cm Might photograph later or leave until tomorrow. ### Week 4 Day 5 10:00 20/7 Photographed and measured. Plant 1: 85cm Plant 2: 79cm Plant 3: 81cm Plant 4: 71cm Plant 5: 63cm Plant 6: 63cm So they've all grown about 4cm in about 13 hours, except plant 3 - which seems to have slowed down a lot. The top of plant 3 is also the most advanced looking in terms of pistils. I forgot to take close ups of the preflowers I will do that tomorrow. I have had to raise the light again today and it is now much further away than the younger plants than I would like. So I am thinking about adding a 300w LED into my 4x4. I have another 3 inches I can raise the light on the hangers, after that I can removed the adjustable handers and tie it to the top of the tent... that'll gain me another 4 or 5 inches. If I need to go higher my only option would be to set them up without the tent which is not an option right now. Hopefully they all just stop getting taller now and focus on flowering... but my gut tells me there's more growth to come. Watch this space! ### Week 4 Day 6 15:00 21/7 Measured. Average 10cm growth 29 hours. 😳😳😲 Plant 1: 96cm Plant 2: 89cm Plant 3: 88cm Plant 4: 81cm Plant 5: 73cm Plant 6: 72cm ### Week 4 Day 6 23:00 21/7 Defoliated. Only photographed plants 1 and 2 individually as I was short on time. Some lovely pics though! ### Week 4 Day 7 15:00 22/7 Fertigated. 2l Will photograph and measure later when they've had 24h since training. ### Week 4 Day 7 23:00 22/7 Photographed and measured: Plant 1: 102cm Plant 2: 93cm Plant 3: 89cm Plant 4: 85cm Plant 5: 76cm Plant 6: 75cm Well here we are at the end of week 4 and I am quite shocked by the growth of these girls. This strain averages 50-70cm in height. We have six plants here and every one of them is taller than the average... but would you just look at plant 1? She is a giant! 102cm!! Where will she stop? Next week will see the full transition to flower and we will start to see the bud sites developing. I have no idea at this point what the heights will look like at the end of next week. This is sort of new territory really, they weren't meant to get this big! --- Thanks for reading growmies! 👊 ========== Tent: 120cm x 120cm x 180cm Light: 600w HID Elite Dual Spectrum HPS + Angel Wing Reflector Air: 5" duct fan system with carbon filter ~300 m3/hour + RAM 9" floor fan + 4" intake fan Pots: Air Pruner Fabric Pots 30l - UGro XL Coco + horticultural grade perlite (~20%) Seeds supplied by Royal Queen Seeds https://www.royalqueenseeds.com Nutrients supplied by Shogun Fertilisers https://www.shogunfertilisers.com/en ==========

J-50 arrosage eau (pH6.5) J-51 légère défoliation. J-52 arrosage avec engrais (pH6.6) + défoliation. J-54 arrosage eau (pH6.7) J-55 arrosage avec engrais (1 fastberry est très en retard comparé à l'autre) Mise en route d'un déshumidificateur pour arriver à 50% d'humidité. Sinon tout se passe bien et hâte de récolter les Forbidden Runtz 😁
