🥒 Project Blue Tent – Week 5 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Pheno B (Folder 14B) Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of Project Blue Tent! 💙🌱 For anyone discovering this diary for the first time, Project Blue Tent follows four individual Pickle Lemon Haze F1 plants, each grown under exactly the same environmental conditions while being documented separately from seed to harvest. Although every plant shares the same genetics, each one develops its own personality, growth habits and structure. By giving every phenotype its own diary, we get to appreciate those subtle differences while learning how each plant responds throughout the entire grow. Today we're checking in on Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Plant B. ────────────────────────────── 🌱 Week Five – Filling Every Corner This week has been all about controlled expansion. After recovering beautifully from last week's topping, Plant B has exploded with vigorous new growth. Rather than stretching excessively, she's focused her energy on producing an incredible number of side branches, creating one of the bushiest structures inside the tent. With so many healthy shoots developing, it was the perfect moment to begin introducing the SCROG net. For anyone unfamiliar with the technique, SCROG stands for Screen of Green. Instead of allowing the plant to grow vertically, each branch is gently guided underneath a horizontal net, encouraging it to spread across the available space. The objective isn't simply to make the plant wider. By opening the canopy, every future flowering site receives better light penetration and improved airflow, while creating a much more even surface for flowering later on. Rather than producing one dominant cola, the plant is encouraged to develop many equally productive tops. This week we spent some time gently bending and positioning branches beneath the screen, allowing Plant B to begin claiming her share of the canopy. She handled it like an absolute champion. ────────────────────────────── 🌡️ Environmental Conditions Maintaining consistency continues to be one of the main goals inside Project Blue Tent. Stable environmental conditions allow the plants to recover quickly from training while maintaining uninterrupted vegetative growth. This week's average conditions were: • 🌡️ Day temperature: 30°C • 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C • 💧 Relative humidity: 58% • 🥥 Root zone temperature: 24°C • 💦 Nutrient solution: 18°C • ⚗️ pH: 5.8 • ⚡ EC: 1.92 mS/cm • 💨 CO₂: approximately 450 ppm • 💡 Light schedule: 18/6 Despite the slightly warmer daytime temperatures this week, the plants have continued growing vigorously, showing excellent transpiration and healthy development throughout the room. ────────────────────────────── 🥥 Feeding Strategy As the plants continue increasing their growth rate, their nutritional demands naturally increase alongside them. A couple of weeks ago all four phenotypes began displaying a slightly lighter shade of green. Since every plant responded the same way while maintaining vigorous growth, it was clear they simply wanted a little more food rather than showing signs of stress. The feeding schedule was adjusted accordingly and continues producing exactly the response I was hoping for. Current feeding consists of: • Plagron Hydro A — 1.9 ml/L • Plagron Hydro B — 1.9 ml/L • Plagron Hydro Roots — 1 ml/L The newest growth is gradually deepening back into a richer green while maintaining excellent growth speed and healthy leaf development. Sometimes the smallest adjustments make the biggest difference. ────────────────────────────── 🌿 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Plant B Every week this phenotype becomes more interesting. While her sister shows slightly more vertical ambition, Plant B has decided to become an absolute bush. The recovery after topping has been outstanding. Both new main leaders have established themselves perfectly while countless secondary branches continue racing upward, creating an incredibly dense canopy filled with future flowering sites. After introducing the SCROG net this week, it quickly became obvious just how much lateral growth she's capable of producing. Every branch seemed eager to occupy its own space, making the training process surprisingly enjoyable. One characteristic that really stands out is her natural symmetry. Even after being bent in multiple directions, she continues producing an impressively balanced framework with very even spacing between developing tops. Her stems continue thickening nicely, internodal spacing remains compact, and leaf posture stays upright throughout the day, clear signs that she's handling every bit of training without complaint. She's lush, healthy, vigorous, and showing exactly the kind of structure I love seeing before flowering. Looking at her now, it's hard to believe she was topped only a short time ago. ────────────────────────────── 🌿 Looking Ahead As both Pickle Lemon Haze sisters continue filling the tent, canopy management is becoming increasingly important. These two ladies are definitely going to compete for space over the coming weeks, and that's exactly the kind of problem every grower enjoys having. The next step will simply be continuing to weave branches through the SCROG net while allowing every future top to find its own place in the canopy. A light selective defoliation may also become necessary soon. Not because the plant needs correcting, but simply to improve airflow and allow more light to reach the rapidly developing interior branches hidden beneath this beautiful sea of leaves. For now, though, she's doing exactly what I hoped she would. Growing wider. Growing stronger. And becoming one impressive little bush. ────────────────────────────── 💙 Thank You A huge thank you goes to Zamnesia for the incredible Pickle Lemon Haze F1 genetics and for providing the complete ecosystem that makes Project Blue Tent possible. Another heartfelt thank you goes to Plagron for supplying the Premium Growbags together with the Hydro nutrient line, helping these ladies build strong root systems and maintain vigorous growth week after week. I'd also like to thank GrowDiaries for providing a platform where growers from around the world can document their journeys, exchange knowledge, and continue inspiring one another every single day. And finally, thank you to everyone following Project Blue Tent. Whether you've been here since germination, recently discovered these diaries, actively leave comments every week, or simply enjoy watching these beautiful plants evolve, your support truly means a lot. Every phenotype tells its own story. This one is quickly becoming one of my favourites. I hope you're all having an amazing week. Until next time... Growers Love, happy growing, and take care everyone! 💚🌱

Week 7 – The Pest is Dead Found the source of the whiteflies – two infested CBD plants I’d placed in the tent. Removed them, and since then only a few flies on traps. Problem solved. Buds are swelling nicely with more trichomes and orange pistils. Some yellowing leaves toward the end of the week, likely natural fade. Watered twice with pH water and gave one light HESI feed (½ dose) on Sunday. Dimmed light from level 7 to 6; PPFD is ~800 top / ~550 lower. Everything’s on track!

Seedsman Seeds Germination Report - Run 01: The White OG Journey Kickoff to Germination: The Start of Something Great! Welcome to the beginning of this adventure with The White OG feminized seeds from Seedsman Seeds. Excitement is in the air as we’re searching for strong, resilient plants, and this journey has all the best tools and tips. Starting with five seeds, we’re aiming for a solid beginning and maximum potential. Let’s explore every step in detail to make this grow as robust as it can be! Germination Process: Tools of the Trade TheCannaKan: The Ultimate Germination Gadget I’m thrilled to share my love for TheCannaKan, a little germination wonder! This tool is essential for any grower who wants to start their seeds with precision and care. I noticed rapid results in just 24 hours, with the seeds showing signs of life. At about 32 hours, I transferred them to the Root Riots, which brings us to the next exciting stage. Why I Love TheCannaKan: • Quick Results: Seeds sprouted rapidly, minimizing wait time. • Consistency: Keeps moisture levels optimal for uniform germination. • User-Friendly: Simple yet effective for both new and experienced growers. Root Riots and Their Role in Root Development After sprouting, I placed the seedlings into Root Riot cubes under a dome. Root Riots are fantastic for stabilizing young plants, providing an airy and nutrient-friendly environment that promotes robust root growth from the start. Benefits of Root Riots: • Root Aeration: Soft yet structured, these cubes support root expansion. • Moisture Retention: Holds just the right amount of water for growing seedlings. • Enhanced Root Health: The cubes are ideal for preventing damping-off and ensuring healthy, white roots. Nutrients to Kickstart Growth: Aptus Holland Regulator and Startbooster To give the seedlings a perfect start, I added Aptus Holland’s Regulator and Startbooster (1ml/L each). This mix promotes early root and stem strength, giving seedlings the ability to absorb light and nutrients more efficiently. • Aptus Regulator: Enhances plant resilience, aids in nutrient absorption, and promotes early vitality. • Aptus Startbooster: Adds a balanced mix of growth hormones and nutrients that are ideal for the early stages, encouraging healthy roots and faster seedling growth. Light and Environment: Future of Grow FOG LED with TrolMaster Tent X Controller I’m using a Future of Grow (FOG) LED at 600W, but keeping it dimmed down to around 200 PPFD. This setting is controlled by the TrolMaster Tent X Controller to give the plants the perfect start without overwhelming them with intense light. Controlled lighting helps seedlings to develop without stress, encouraging healthy growth and internode spacing. Shoutouts: • Future of Grow LED: High-quality, efficient LED light that adapts well to seedling and veg stages. • TrolMaster Tent X Controller: Reliable and intuitive control over light, humidity, and more. Perfect for a hands-off, efficient environment setup. Observations: One Seedling Takes the Lead At the end of this germination stage, it looks like one seedling has emerged as the strongest, while the others may need a few more days. Patience and observation are key; some seeds naturally take a bit more time to sprout. I’ll keep monitoring these with hope, allowing each seedling its own rhythm. Grower’s Notes and Tips • Consistency Matters: Germination is all about steady conditions—consistent moisture, gentle nutrients, and stable lighting make all the difference. • Document Everything: Keeping a log of each step (like this one!) helps track growth patterns and provides valuable insights for future grows. • Stay Positive and Patient: Not every seed will sprout at the same rate. Trust the process and remember each plant is unique. Community Shoutouts Thank you to everyone who makes this process smoother and inspiring—TrolMaster, Aptus Holland, Future of Grow, and Seedsman Seeds for amazing genetics and tools, as well as the growers’ community who share insights, tips, and encouragement along the way. Next Steps Now that we’re through germination, we’ll move into the early growth phase. I’ll keep documenting the lighting adjustments, nutrient changes, and growth patterns of each plant, especially that eager seedling leading the way!

Good morning little miss sunshine. Using heatmat at 24°C for the first week. Light Power: 40% Soil in the final pot: I use 80% Dope Soil - florganics & 20 % garden compost. The soil was used by two grow sessions before. In the last one I added the compost. For this grow I added a 1/2 cup Dolomite limestone in the middle layer of the earth. To prevent Ca, Mg deficiency. Covered with 5cm old mulch. Watering with 2,5L tapwater and let it flow DAY 6 Cover open and she can feel the first breeze. DAY 7 Welcome in the final 25L pot .

Week 7 is last week of feeding nutrients, to engage senescence (fade)… Some of the pistols are turning brown and starting to swell.

looking well but i think she could have a little more resin production at this stage, currently going in to week 6. any tips would be helpful, im already pumping co2 in there above the plant so it falls down, under a 200w attis lumatek led. (will upgrade next grow) ... the old co2 pack behind the plant is empty and old just not removed 🤣 thanks :)

This plant is just gorgeous! She is really starting to develop nice bud sites. My super soil mix is keeping her super healthy and happy!! I keep making sure to stay on top of her as far as treating her with OMRI fungicides. I made the tough decision to chop down my Mango Sapphire this week as she had a lot of powdery mildew starting. It was too close to this lady and decided the risk was too great. I can’t wait to see what another week brings!! Onward! 😎🔥🍻🍿🌱

No tiene muchos cambios ya qie necesita transplante, pero quiero esperar para qie no cesca mucho ya que tengo una psicodelicia en suelo

Days 33-35 Both ladies have been transplanted and moved into the Veg tent! If you look in the video you can see the setup. Both are in 10.5"x10.5" square nursery pots approx 3Gal each. Both were put into happy frog soil using azos and recharge during transplant. I have them under an optic 8+ with a cob as supplemental lighting Day 37: A light defoliation day today, especially for #1. I removed all the mature fan leaves that were blocking any bud sites or nodes at all. Essentially leaving the top 2 mature leaves in tact. I honestly did not want to do this! It was heart wrenching to mutilate such a beautiful naturally growing plant 🤷‍♂️ practicality wins in the end tho. I removed the 2 oldest lowest fan leaves from #2 as well. More for sanitation reasons. They werent8blocking anything but the uh were dragging in the dirt and starting to fade anyhow. I actually kept 1 leaf. My 1st time ever doing this. The leaf is so neat, overlapping itself. *transplant update day 37* In my very green opinion they look to be struggling a bit with the transplant. I like to wet my medium prior to placing the rootball in, sometimes it's great and the roots chase it. Sometimes they get a little water logged and it takes a week b4 watering. I'm thinking it's the latter in this scenario. Day 38; #1's top fan leaves are rolling in again. I figured it was heat but the surface area doesn't get above 78° which from what I've read is fine. Maybe it's a strain issue? Looks very imdica, ma uh be is accustomed to a cooler climate? Day 39: I lowered #1 about a foot further from the light. She is still all curled up tho. It isn't heat. I watered them at transplant per my usual routine. 2 other plants stranded extremely bad and these 2 are acting goofy. I probably over did it that day Day 42 and 43 In day 42 CMOG #1 needed some water. It's her 1st drink since transplant. #2 on the other hand is drinking a bit less. I also took 2 upper fan leaves off #1(I hate doing it, but gotta promote those bud sites!! Day 43nothing really to report. I videotaped myself plucking a couple lower fan leaves. I'm raising the fan a bit more above #2 to keep wind stress down. Day 44: 🚨⛈️Emergency!!⛈️🚨 Power is out! My light cycle is as follows: on at 6pm off at 12pm. Its 2:45am right now and the power has gone out. Which was wierd because it went out b4 the storm hit! It was fricken midday when the outtage happen!! My poor Chocolate Mint OG 😖 keeping humididty down is gonna be hard and my grow is very far from and natural light source even if they were on the same cycle as nature 🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️ if ur reading this say a quick prayer! Thanks!!🙏✌️🌱

Ah nothing like a good stretch, Week 2 of flower after the massive transition feeding of 1800 ppm and no sign of nutrient burn so the media and nuites seem to be a winner. In the last feeding I doubled the watering, the second half was just water PH'ed to 6 for two reasons, dilute the 1800 ppm and to promote a deep watering for the roots. I let them dry out till the fan leaves started to wilt on one of the Strawberry Ice and after a deep watering of just water again this week they bounced back. I wanted to make sure the food from the last feeding is used up and also a mini flush before the next feeding for the flowering stage. I am going to go higher with the P & K % on top of recommended chart feeding. I want to play around with the numbers as a lot of growers have their own special sauce recipe. Based on these two strains they look pretty healthy, next week will be a lollipop on the bottom 1/3 to the canopy. as to promote air flow and stretch they are getting pretty thick and bushy still tucking the stems to fill out the scrog completely. The one BLUE DREAM HAZE is a different phenom by the look of it lets see how it turns out its a little shorter than her sisters, Please ;eave a comment good or bad I love to hear from you folks. TTFN

Weeks 6-7-8 should probably have been better controlled. I'll definitely control the heights better for the next grow. I didn't defoliate, top nor supercrop. I'll do that for the next grow.

Plants just received their last feeding. Only ph balanced water for the last 2 weeks to flush out nutrients. Leaves are starting to yellow showing signs of being almost ready for harvest. The trics are about half cloudy.

👍🍀❤️

Diese Woche haben die Blüten ordentlich an Gewicht zugelegt die Triebe fangen langsam an zu hängen mal gucken ob das nächste Woche noch geht ohne abstützen. Der ec wurde die Woche auf 1,2 verringert außerdem wurde PK13/14 hinzugefügt ph pendelt immer von 5,8 bis maximal 6,2 der Geruch wird jeden Tag stärker der 2 Topf ist mittlerweile auch schon recht stark bewurzelt die nächsten Wochen wird drauf geachtet die Temperatur nicht über 25 grad steigen zu lassen um die Terpene zu schonen. Die Blüten sind komplett mit Trichomen überzogen sogar größere fächerblätter sind komplett besetzt die Harzproduktion hat jetzt richtig zugelegt

This beautiful big lady got some more space in a bigger tent now😁💚

Aquí os dejo fotos de los días 16 y 18 desde que salieron! Hasta el momento cumpliendo los parámetros y no están respondiendo nada mal!! Hos iré contando qué tal evolucionan!! Buenos humos!!

Muy contento con el resultado de esta hermosa genética llena de resina , un olor muy rico, agradable al fumar y muy potente, cumple con creces mis expectativas 👍👨‍🌾🏻🍀

Noch wenige Tage 😋

Cherry A causing me all sorts of issues. She's falling on top of Cherry B. And in turn, Cherry B is hitting into my other plants (Grandpa Stash). Also noticed what looks like pollen sacs on day 78.
