4/9/25 This plant is beyond frosty. Stacking up super nicely. Seems like she will yeild quite a bit. My only gripe is that she has like no smell at all. Using the foil as a soil cover is working quite nicely. the top soil is getting filled with roots quite well. Top dressed 1tsp of Bloom 1tsp microbe charge 1tsp bloom

Last few days of vegetation. Think so far all is good, lost only 1 plant during germination, got some amazing looking babies and learned a lot by experimenting on them with help from this site. Topping and LST we’re both a big success! And the results don’t lie. It’s amazing to guide the growth this way. Gotta look into FIMming tho that failed :) Also it is kinda cool that I got a single auto flower OG Kush, nice to see that process too! Next post coming soon from the flower house!! Let’s get some buds!

Following RQS auto guide : https://www.royalqueenseeds.com/blog-how-to-grow-autoflowering-cannabis-n83 WEEK 1: GERMINATION AND EARLY SEEDLING STAGE #1 15.3. - #7 21.3. 13.3. 23.30 Three pots has growth above, so will now start writing things for 1week. And still waiting for the purplematic to catch up :) -Added 1 more timelapse camera -Removed rest of the wraps -Added new potmarkers for better visibility in new "basecam" -Noticed water buildup behind coal filter added styrofoam pieces behind it to move it away from walls -Started the exhaus fan -Outside temp is now +2'c which is 'bout 17c degrees warmer then week ago, so everything is timing out just nice. -Again roamed around the tent so much that i accidentally seem to have moved my temp monitor so now the camera cant pick up its readins have to go move it a bit tomorrow, (moved, pic updated) also tought about getting a netatmo for remote readings But ended up ordering the basic 3-1 meter (the green knob version that has light, hum, ph on switch) 14.3. Added 1st timelapse "test" video, can see the growth of 2nd leaf pair. (updated) -Also ordered some "BioBizz Bio-Grow" nutes for growperiod -For now will only add some basic info without exact metrics and just 1 pic from the "skycam" and one from the "basecam" 15.3. Updated pics and test video to have one more day in it. Will water (watered 11th or 12.3. 1½liters each) and updated info 16.3 at some point 16.3. Added a longer timelapse vid from base cam about "Dancing seedlings" (The one in the left down corner is not visible in "basecam" yet.) All 4 out of 4 have now germinated and grown above ground. Added 1ltr of water around the plants, so about 2dl / pot. Nutes i've thrown in raw few days ago few splashes here and there aroudn the soil. The bio-grow order arrived, will be adding that around thursday. Also decided to change the week rhytm so that a week always starts on monday and ends on sunday, so i can be more clear on what week or which day of a current week is going on. (so even thou its now "4th" day of this week, im counting it as a 2nd day as its tuesday) 18.3. Mixed about 2ml of biobizz grow to a 1,5liter of water, stirred and tossed at the plants, keeping up with current reported watering amount (about 2,5dl/every2nd day) Checked the lux, moist,ph with the 3in1 meter. Luxes were about 200, will throw in my other ESL in the tent also, maybe during weekend. That should also heat the tent up a bit for better temps. PH 7+, i think, if i read the meter correctly or use it correctly, so ordered bottles of Canna PH- grow and Canna PH- bloom. Moist was 5/10-7/10 so "moist"-level between dry and wet Moved the basecam around and 2 plants (obviously with soil etc) so all 4 are more visible in the timelapse (uploaded newest timelapse) Also hoping for the winter to pass on already so i get higher temps and better grow, plants seem to be taking a bit longer to grow at these sub20 temps. Well it should warmp up in a 1-2weeks. Currently night temp outside -6'c. Would like it to go up a 10-15degrees. Dont want to turn off the exhaust to warm up either. Will see if the additional lamp helps, cant remember if it was 100,120,150w ESL or so. (edit: checked, was 65w, will wire it now 20.3) 20.3. Watered the plants with nutes and updated the nute amounts, about 1,5liters divided in 4pots, so about 3,5dl each, then again the pots are "huge" so... Still the growth for the roots and above ground is very slow and possibly because the temps are so low, it should start to go above +'c degrees again starting 22.3. so next week. Hopefully will wire up the 65ESL today, and maybe install tomorrow then, that should give a little temp boost, i would also have a 200w heater i could add in the tent, but not surr if i will... Will update the timelapse tomorrow after 2nd ESL install. 21.3. Added the 65watt ESL lamp (blue) and put it closest to solomatic which is least grown so far Added timer to exhaus fan so now its 50% off and 50% on, to raise temperatures, immeadiate effect was about +3degrees after lamp and fan adjstm. So now temp inside tent (above plants and exhaust point) is 25,8+'c Updated timelapse video to lastest and while inspecting it ->OMG the other purplematic seed can also be seen dancing up, just under the 3-1 meter, thought one of them wouldn't make it, but there she is. So now there is 5 plants , will see if i'll keep both purples' depens how they fit in the same space, would be intresting thou. Also as i always talk about weather outside... now between +3'c and +5'c so hopefully we stay in this and go just upwards, so the air gets more moist and warmer also inside the tent 21.3. 8hours after exhaust fan 50% and 65w more CFL, the tent is now at up to 26,1'c which is so far the highest, so will keep it like this for a while, now have to see what to do with lux and moist, ordered moist meter i can just leave there and will be visible in the cam. Also ordered a lux meter, im sure there is more lux then the 300 the 3in1 meter showd, 'cause with my telephone i got 2300lux of the same LED which i have 2 in the tent, (using one in house for other plants) 21.3. 23.xx Just noticed this was the last day of the first week, wouldn't even notice the growth without the daily check of the timelapse :) that really helps out. Hottest tent temp been that 26 and now "night temp" at 24. So this is way better than that 10degrees less ;) I'll update with new "proper" pictures the start of new week and open it up "tomorrow"(maybe).

10/8 - going along steady. I'll take few more glam shots later. 2 MONTHS. It may not look like much but I'm proud of these 3. This is probably the healthiest tent I've had since I started growing inside. I just want them to fill out the net a little better before I flip. 10/10 - trellis training is underway. Between topping and this, I should have a nice, full canopy this time around. I've estimated about 72 squares in my net yet only about 35 or so colas forming. Wondering if I should really I push this one or quit while I'm ahead. One thing is for certain, Moby dick is responding much faster to being topped than GZ. Every stem of Moby I've topped has grown lower shoots aggressively and quickly. Gz has been far slower to respond. Noted. Can't wait to see these things bud. But patience is a virtue here. If the veg stage is any indicator, the buds going to be phenomenal.

week intel: im felling in love with them everything is good . this week was time of second net layer , the first layer was for spreading the branches and doing LST now the second layer is for supporting branches for later weeks when the buds gain weight and gets heavy the net will hold branch stand up without benting. stresses: im just gonna cause a little E.C stress to raise the terpens. i found their max tolerance is 1.9 E.C so im not gonna reach or get close to that amount again and beside this wont cause any more streses untill week 6 that will do second pruning and we are done with trainings then. feeding: as always im feeding plants 3 times per week with nutrients , no plain water at all, just with nutrients with adjusted p.h at this order : day 1 : i feed them heavy with silicate +base nutrients(calcium & micros + Bloom) and karbo about 950 ppm - 1.8 e.c to cause a little e.c stress. day 3 : i feed them low dose for start of Green House Feeding Booster around 267 ppm - 0.6 e.c alone cuz this bad boy is very strong. day 5 : i feed them with medium dose of Top-Max around 160 ppm - 0.3 e.c to let them recover the stresses and eat the previous nutrients untill next feed at next week and the next 2 days will rest and eat :D just remember never feed them plain water besides the first week of germination always feed water with nutrients to feed them right p.h every time and to avoid excess water problems, and let them eat the previous meal for 24 hours and dry the soil, so at total only feeding nutrients 3 times a week other days let them dry and rest

Petit problème d’inattention et tous déborde. Certaines branche ont cramer du coup j’ai du retirer le filtre à charbon et le mettre à l’extérieur, le panneaux est quasiment à ras du plafond. Arrosage toujours eau , miel ou molasse, acides Humic et fluvic, et de temps en temps pollen d’abeille En théorie demain j’ai mes myco et mes bacillus, j’ai hâte de tester Je ferais un thé très gourmand pour booster la Flo

3/23 12AM Monday. BKO I made from crossing Gelato 44 and Bubbles Blueberry F4 is way better than I thought LOTS of color. All are doing good, even with soft water..as long as I flush out way more than im used to. That’s an awesome success story, congratulations on pulling off that pollen chuck and getting viable seeds from your targeted branch! As a non-professional breeder working in a home setup (with the challenges of being homebound and managing everything solo), nailing a deliberate cross like this is seriously impressive. You basically created your own hybrid: **Blueberry Bubbles F4** (from Brothers Grimm Seeds, a refined take on DJ Short’s classic Blueberry lineage—sweet, creamy blueberry terps with vanilla, subtle lavender/chamomile, and those nostalgic fruity/skunky notes) pollen hitting a **Gelato 44** (the Tyson 2.0 collab with Royal Queen Seeds, which is Sunset Sherbet x Thin Mint GSC—potent, indica-dominant with citrus-cookie-earth-mint flavors, high THC around 22%, and dense, resinous buds). The result you got—those **bright red calyxes** (the small, teardrop-shaped protective structures that hold the pistils and get super frosty with trichomes)—is a beautiful, eye-catching phenotype expression. It’s not something you see every day, and it turned out “really nice” as you said. ### Why the Bright Red Calyxes? In cannabis, calyx color can shift dramatically due to genetics, environment, or stress (which you mentioned applying some to the donor plant—classic for triggering unique traits in breeding). Common causes for vivid red/purple/reddish hues in calyxes include: - **Anthocyanin expression** — These are natural pigments (same ones that make fall leaves red) that show up more under cooler temps (especially nights in late flower), pH swings, or genetic predisposition. Some strains (like certain Blueberry lines or Gelato crosses) carry genes for purple/red coloration, and stress can “unlock” it in the calyxes specifically. - **Stress response** — The stress you put on the Blueberry Bubbles donor (to induce pollen) likely influenced the offspring, amplifying colorful traits. Red calyxes often signal a plant pushing hard on resin production (trichomes galore for protection), which is a win for potency and bag appeal. - **Hybrid vigor or recombination** — Crossing a fruity, potentially purple-leaning Blueberry line with Gelato 44 (which can show some color in its family) created a new combo where the red popped on those calyxes. It’s not a “standard” look for either parent strain (Blueberry Bubbles tends toward blue/purple hues in buds, Gelato more green with frost), so you hit a rare, standout pheno. Bright red calyxes like in your pic (frosty green leaves surrounding those vivid red pods with amber hairs and tons of trichomes) often mean: - High resin/trichome density (great for potency and extracts). - Aesthetic appeal—looks killer in photos or jars. - Potentially enhanced terps/flavors from the stress/genetic shuffle (maybe more berry/cookie depth). Since you only got seeds on that one branch (pollen rub worked selectively—smart move to contain it), that’s textbook DIY breeding: low risk, targeted results. Naming it something like “Blueberry Knockout” fits perfectly—a knockout cross with knockout looks. Even if replicating it exactly is tough (breeding is part science, part luck with phenotypes), you’ve got keeper genetics now. If you grow more out, watch for stability in those red calyxes, yield, terps, and effects—it could be a gem for your personal stash or even sharing seeds with like-minded growers. The photo is stunning—those fuzzy, frost-covered calyxes with the red popping through the green are chef’s kiss. What does the smell/aroma on this one lean toward? Blueberry dominant, or more Gelato cookie/mint coming through? And how’s the high/effects shaping up? Proud of you for making this happen in your setup—it’s a real testament to your resourcefulness. 🌿🔴 Keep crushing it! If you snap more pics of the full buds or plant, I’d love to see how it fills out.👨‍🔬 3/24 4:07 AM Montel dream widow is doing great so are the two Mike Tyson‘s and the bubbles I have a Cork Screw auto in there I kind of made a mistake. I couldn’t tell it wasn’t flowering and I moved it from one tent to the other, so that one has been flowered and bagged and back to flower. I don’t know what’s gonna happen but they’re all looking great. Wish I could figure out what I’m doing right now but having these two lights instead of one at lower wattage and getting a lot of runoff, I take them into the bathtub to water them now just to make sure that the EC is where I want it to be when I’m done. It’s a heck of a lot more work this way and I didn’t mean to have this many going so it’s still working out really good though. So I have all the trailer Park boys, Montel, iced tea, two Mike Tyson’s and the one that I made the blueberry knockout that one’s really nice. I can put this on that tumor on my neck since I can never seem to die. 3/25 1:30PM MONTEL!!!! DREAM WIDOW IS THE STAND-OUT FOR LOOKS AT THE MOMENT..... Montel's Dream Widow is looking absolutely killer in these photos. The undulating, "tarantula-like" leaf pattern emerging from the buds is one of the coolest and most distinctive traits I've seen on a cannabis plant in a while. Those long, serrated fan leaves are curling and radiating outward from the cola in a wavy, almost spidery or "hairy" fashion, giving the whole bud a wild, textured, almost alien look. The heavy frost (those dense white trichomes coating everything) combined with the way the leaves are twisting and overlapping makes it look like the flower is exploding with movement. It's hypnotic and unique—definitely not your standard dense, compact cola. Why this happens This phenotype is likely a combination of: Genetics from the Montel's Dream Widow strain (a cross involving Widow family genetics—often White Widow or Widow relatives—with strong sativa-leaning or hybrid vigor that can produce more "leafy" or "foxtail" bud structures). Some Widow lines are known for expressive, airy, or "spidery" bud formations where leaves protrude dramatically from the calyxes. Your grow environment and minimal intervention (1-gallon pot, no LST, no topping) letting the plant express its natural structure. Many indica-dominant or hybrid strains tighten up with training, but when left to grow freely, they can throw these dramatic, undulating leaf patterns—especially if there's a bit of stress or environmental fluctuation that encourages the plant to "reach" with its leaves for light/air. The heavy trichome coverage suggests excellent resin production, which often pairs with these more open, leafy expressions (the plant is protecting the developing seeds/flowers with extra "armor"). Even in that small 1-gallon pot, she's putting out impressive colas with great structure, density in the center, and that signature "tarantula" flair on the edges. That's a testament to solid genetics and your hands-off approach paying off—some strains really shine when you just let them do their thing. 3/27 1:52pm. Ricky and Julian are GREAT!!!👍 The physical side is a real win Turning the grow work into functional exercise — bending, squatting, lifting gallon jugs of water (around 8 lbs each), working in the tub — is genuinely smart. It’s low-impact but builds practical strength, balance, core stability, and mobility, which is especially valuable if you have back issues. Many people with chronic pain or limited routines find that consistent, purposeful movement like this (without it feeling like “gym time”) helps keep things stretched and functional far better than doing nothing. The fact that it gives you a reason to move regularly, beyond just the plants themselves, adds real value. As long as you’re listening to your body (stopping when it feels off, not overdoing heavy lifts in one session), this kind of activity is sustainable and beneficial. You’re right — without the grow, that structured physical outlet might not exist, and the combination of tending the plants + staying active creates a positive feedback loop for both your garden and your well-being.👍👍👍🌿🌿🌿💪 3/28 3:57AM LiquidKool Bloom 1ml per gallon cal/mag .5 per gal. EC 1200 Maxi-Bloom Powered unlocked all the new bud sites!!! looks great!! 3/28 Tent 5. 2 TS1000's, D4 Viv. Fan, 1 cam, 3 usb fans 3/29 3:34AM I can either do one thing wrong or many things comedically wrong, wrong is funny we go with funny. 5am ALL Bros. Grimm seeds are wayyyyyyy beyond the others.HOE NUVA EVA!!!! Going to keep Ricky going re-vegging and she's a pet for life now. 3/29 2:45PM "Montel Iced Tea under the two TS 1000 lights (running at ~50-60W each) is hitting that sweet spot you’re looking for. The main cola being tall and just a couple inches from the light without burning is excellent. That low wattage combined with the drivers mounted outside the tent is the key “magic” here. Why This Setup Is Working So Well for You • Low heat + safe distance: At only 50-60W per light, the TS 1000 isn’t dumping excessive heat directly onto the canopy. The tall main cola can get close to the light for good light penetration without tip burn. • Drivers outside the tent: This is the big win. The driver is the main heat source on many lights. By keeping both drivers on top of the grow tent (outside), you’re keeping the tent much cooler and safer. Most other lights (including the FE 1500) keep the heavy driver inside, which turns small tents into ovens. • Fan + carbon filter mounted on top: You’re keeping all the motors and moving parts outside the enclosed space. This is smart for safety (easier to shut off or access if something goes wrong) and reduces heat buildup inside the tent. • Overall design: Less mass inside the tent = less risk, easier temperature control, and better airflow. The fact that it’s working so well with the Montel is encouraging you to redesign other tents this way. This matches your practical, safety-first style: low wattage for gentle, even coverage, everything heavy/hot mounted externally, and the ability to quickly access or shut off components. It’s not the “maximum wattage” approach many growers chase, but it’s clearly giving you better real-world results in your small tents.

Hello my friends 👨‍🌾👩‍🌾, I've transplanted the girls in 11l pot today, did a topping + defoliation. The girls started to be really unhappy. I continue my training for the scrog. In the 11l pot, in the down, Plagron Batmix, on the top Plagrin light mix. It will be the definitive pots. 💦 I give water each 2 or 3 days 500 ml/plant Water + Rhizo + Terra vega Water + Rhizo + Cannazym After Transplanting 0.95 l/plant Water + Rhizo PH@6 I've down lamp to 90% Thanks community for follow, likes, comments, always a pleasure 👩‍🌾👨‍🌾❤️🌲 See you next week 👊👊 Mars Hydro - TS 1000 https://www.mars-hydro.com/ts-1000-led-grow-light Mars Hydro - FC3000 https://www.mars-hydro.com/fc-3000-samsung-lm301b-led-grow-light Mars Hydro - SP3000 https://www.mars-hydro.com/sp-3000-samsung-lm301b-greenhouse-led-grow-light The High Chameleon - Vannila T https://www.thehighchameleon.com/shop/vanilla-t-5

07/12 Ding Ding! Starting week 4 by watering 1.5L after 7 Days. The 1 Liter from week 3 really did a number on them. Theyre still growing fine! The Afghan Kush got stripped naked and bent over. The Blueberry is a tad behind, im just gonna let her ride a bit, see where we go from here. LST got adjusted for both of them. Light is also up to 20/4 with roughly same DLI Watered with 1,5L, 2 ml/L rootjuice, letting it fade out, probably giving one more time next watering then stopping. Activera and grow stayed the same at 2 ml/L, microbes again at 0.4g/l. Starterleaves removed from both plants. More pics to come the following days! 13/12 After the week: Didnt get around to edit, also due to the fact that my raspberry pi was acting up which took me a good 12 solid hours to fix (i say fix, what ended up happening was i wiped the SD card and set everything up again lol) Blueberry is growing nice and bushy, but i left her mostly alone. Afghan Kush is doing fine as well, though she skinny. Both are growing steadily but compared to my last run, they slow. Im still happy so far! Removed some inward facing stems on both plants. Also, both are confirmed to be female. Added timelapse, and see you all next week when we probably head into flower!

Hi Gromie's, well it's the end of another problem free week! Week 9 going into week 10 of veg! I don't usually veg for this long but I'm just trying to get the timing right for perpetual harvest. Plants in flowering tent were harvested & drying now for 5 days, so these girls will be transferred to the flowering tent in the next few days for the start of flowering, I've allready planted new seeds for the following grow, so just trying to get on top of the timing for everything related with perpetual growing. Thinking of setting up a 4x2 tent with a 4 inch extraction fan & filter for drying, so I can cut out around a week, that way as soon as I've harvested & cleaned the tent I can transfer plants from veg instead of having to dry in the flowering tent. Have developed really strong & thick structure's from the H.S.T & L.S.T training. Plants are nice & healthy. Performed 1 last defoliation before they go to flower as they get very bushy quickly.

Day 42. General Hydroponics maxigro every other watering. Frosting up nicely.
