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

15 Weeks clone to harvest. Still have the mother plant around. Will be keeping it around untill the plant has cured and can see weather I do want to keep. I can always try to choc mint og v2, and try more phenotypes, as on this occasion I only had 1 and it wasn't hunted was just a random seed. Was my first time growing in a DWC set up. Will be running the set up again next run, but with different nutrient line up. First time growing from clone also I was super impressed with how fast they grew. They out grew the mother plant in the vegetative stage.

Expect an extremely enjoyable high that boosts your mood while deeply relaxing your whole body and getting rid of muscle pain. This meticulous cross produces up to 550 g/m2 of some of the most beautiful purple buds, with pinkish and reddish hues that will catch everyone’s attention. The beautiful purple buds are ready for harvest in 7-8 weeks and come hand-in-hand with unbelievably sugary citrus terps that are just as refreshing as a cold lemonade on a hot Summer day. It’s the ideal variety for the sweet-tooth stoner seeking strains that deliver both in quality and quantity of resin. Bud Description 🦔 Purple Lemonade FF grows chunky, spade-shaped buds that boast a whole range of pinkish-purple hues with rich, dark orange pistils shooting out of every direction. This variety stands out for the, oftentimes, lilac trichomes that give them a gorgeous pink tint and make for outstanding purple concentrates. The buds give off a delicious tart lemon aroma that reveals a sweeter, more fruity scent as you break the buds open. Definitely a must for flavor chasers and those looking for pungent terpene profiles. Smoke Reports 💨 Purple Lemonade FF offers an effect that’s just as unique as the flavor.

Grow Tips 🤓 This is a super fast feminized photoperiod version that takes approximately 7-8 weeks to flower with a 5-week vegetation cycle,, this means you can have faster harvests by shortening the veg cycle or have a longer veg cycle for bigger yields. Purple Lemonade FF (Fast Flowering) makes for a great candidate for growers of all levels as it’s a vigorous strain that will thrive with basic maintenance both indoors and outdoors. This is a resin powerhouse so make sure to have your trim bin close by as all the resinous sugar leaves will make for the most mouth- watering hash and extracts.

On the inhale, expect sour flavors that taste just like lemon candy with hints of orange and a really subtle earthy background. And on the exhale, the citrus flavors open up, giving place to a more sugary berry fruitiness that leaves your whole mouth tasting like an extremely sweet weed-infused lemonade. https://2fast4buds.com/seeds/purple-lemonade-fast-flowering _______________________________________________________________ Setup: 140x70x200 cm Spiderfarmer tent 2x Monkey 16W fans (not oscillating) 1x Secret Jardin 30W 1x box fan 50W oscillating (on lowest level) LED Full Spectrum 320W AGLEX AGL-320W-MA 5,6 kg foldable, dimmable 864 pieces Samsung LH301H 864umol/s 2,7umol/J full spectrum white + RED 660nm + IR 740nm wavelength range 380-780nm covering 3x4ft Green Buzz Nutrients https://greenbuzzliquids.com/ ❗ Use code GD42025 for generous 25% discount (for orders of minimum 75€) Biobizz Lightmix + coco + wormcastings + perlite Carbon Active Granulate Filter 125/360 cm³/h PrimaKlima exhaust EC 125-400/240 cm³/h

I was late on giving them their next feeding. I didn’t wanna do it too early because of impatience but I should’ve listened to the plants. Added 1tsp (5ml) of uprising foundation for some cal mag. Other than that, just watering. I’ve been boiling water, a day or so in advance to get rid of chlorine and anything else I can.

Excellent growth this week from the diesel, looking pretty much finished will give her few days depending on whether. The cheese is small but the smell coming of it is unreal. Just gave plain water in between the rainy days, will just give water rest of time. That’s all this week happy growing🌱

Hello everyone week 6 has passed 😎 I’ve spotted a « true » hermie for the Biscotti Mintz from Barneys Farm,pollen sac & female flower😌i ve posted a photo if it can help🤓 For the others girls they are very well growing at fast pace and with a beautiful green colour on the leaves🤩 For the nutrient my homemade fertiliser 100% bio,now for the flowering stage its Symphytum officinal & banana peel super rich in potassium,phosphorus,boron & macro nutrients ⚡️ For the light schedule they spend 12 hours outside full of sunlight☀️ Some LST🔗 I will force the plants to flower in my garage 100% lightproof😎 So every morning and every night i remove all the plants from my garage at the same hours 💪

Sadly th police came and took my harvest the day before harvest , so the journey ends here

Dec. 13 - start of week 11 and all's well into the flip to flower. Clipped 'er out real good twice but there's no stopping these girls. Probably looking at some serious pruning over the next 2 weeks. We'll keep it light but regular and with luck, it'll be a perfect mix between max photo synth. and energy allocation. We've gone much more aggressive with the nute shed. - gonna jam 'em every feed on a 5:1 ratioof full strength to calmag only and see how they take to it instead of the current 3:1. @quexos was spot non about the defo - shoulda been a little more ruthless but all good - we'll get there homie😉 Thanks again to the usual suspects for the comments and critiques. You folks continue to keep it chill, enlightening and positive - you grow fiends have been awesome and best to all of you this Christmas!👊 Peace, love and all that other stuff.😎 Dec. 16 update - the stretch is on heavy! That said, this girls an NL strain so likely won’t stretch nearly as much as her kush neighbour. May need to prop her up at some point soon🤔. Cheers y’all!👊 Background This one is gonna be fimmed out and defo’d as a comparative to its manifolded kush sister. They’ll spend a first week or so under a cfl assembly while the last harvest dries out in the cabinet. This is our 2nd grow of an NL strain and this one should be typical of NL in terms of resilience. That said, she’s a former cup winner so we’re hopeful for supreme quality this time around. 👍 Gonna jack up the nute shed. and supplements heavy throughout the grow in the hopes of really testing the limits of my grow space (approx. 2sq/ft). With the coco medium we’re hoping for that 20% bump in yield as well. THANKS for check'n er out

After dry Maddie dry weight 126 grams, Tammy now in dry wet weight 815 grams Tammy yield dry 153 grams

Day 1 - LST train both plants... Mostly SB1 to have a wider canopy let the smaller nodes catch up. SB2.. Nice structure, really upset to break 1/2 of it... But loads of energy and recovered /train well. Nodes larger than SB1, but SB1 has mode nodes

i fucked it up, Yet still i had a chance of redemption as i got 4-6 weeks of flowering, yet to finish. Self Sabotage Is my passion but this one was unintentional as flowering was going bomb i thought they could require More nutrents as well. This one was a classical P K self inflicted shot in the cock. The small dots i interpreted as bug bites we're really p&k excess advising that i needed to shut my dick & stop snorting power point presentations. AND i didn't consider that Barrier alas i can use only on soil not spray was a heavy punch on my already fucked nutrient schema & plague support so used it a Lot too!. Thought AND Prayers on these beloved ones. As these lil green angels clings to life 420 homies!

A bit of pain, trying to not over water her while it's steaming hot inside. She is looking beautiful, and hopefully just finished streching. I hope for some cooler days so I can bump the lights to 100%

Any idea what other nuits i hould get

Here we are start of week 6 and the girls have burst into flower . No problems yet everything seems to be as I would expect . The #AutoPots make my growing experience so much easier and the plants seem to thrive in this system .

So this grow was easy barely fed nutes I felt with really cold temps I’m so far up north but it reall brought out the colours and they are amazing smells like lemon berries I like it cheers and thanks guys

We are an update away from the results. Both control plants chopped by way of spin trimmer. Non defo has the biggest cola, defo plant has the most mains and seems a bit heavier when wet. Results in a week or so Sbg.com

Day 98, 40 days of flower, Plants are progressing well from all the abuse I've put them threw. Not sure when to chop plant B. Keeping an eye on the tricomes. Day 99, 41 days of flower, Watered with 3 liters per plant of plain distilled water. Day 100, picked some dead leaves off like I do everyday now, just keeping an eye on plant B's trichomes since it's hairs are showing the most age. Plant A's hairs are all orange now, while plant C and D are still white. Looks like we will have a staggered harvest. Not sure when to harvest though. Day 101, 43 days of flower(start of week 7 of flower) - Picked more dead leaves off, Plant A- has the biggest bugs, all orange hairs, but the smallest stalk. Plant B- has a few new white hairs but is still aging. Plant C- has small frost buds, and alot of white hairs. Plant D- has medium sized buds with plents of frost, has lots of white hairs. Day 102, 44 days of flower- Watered with 3 liters of plain distilled water. Picked more dead leaves off of course to maintain a clean canopy and reduce options for bugs. Day 104, day 46 of flower- Plant B has some amber trichomes, so I might chop it today or tomorrow. Took alot of photos of plant B since it's my first harvest.

Update week 1 day 4 of bloom , this week we put the net to make the technique that calls scrog we see next week what is the resul
