Hash plant smells great. I did have root issues during grow. It did help solve the issue for future grows. Still had can nice plant. Smells great. Will try to upload a video here and will be available on my YouTube channel. The Viparspectra P4000 light worked great. The New Level Hydro buckets are very nice. Plus PEV has some great strains from ones I have tried so far. Thank you everyone It won't upload my video. It is on my YouTube channel though. I tried. Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g Www.newlevelhydro.com Www.hygrozyme.com.

9 weeks from sprout. Week 3 in flower. Everything's going smooth.. i think. Had degrees up mid 90s for a couple days and plugged in the ac. My bedroom is cold as fuck now which has my closet ranging from 77 at night to 81 during the day. I really don't want any colder than that. They are starting to smell jus a little more these past three days. At first i didn't smell them unless i touched em for the most part. Ppms staying between 2000 and 2300... Playing the damn waiting game. I got some free time tomorrow. Maybe ill take some of them close up glam-style shots of some buds starting to form.

🥒 Project Blue Tent – Week 7 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Pheno B (Folder 14B) Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of Project Blue Tent! 💙🌱 If you're discovering this diary for the first time, welcome aboard! Project Blue Tent follows four individual plants, each documented in its own dedicated diary from seed all the way to harvest. Every plant shares the exact same environment, lighting, irrigation, nutrition and training strategy, allowing us to observe how each phenotype develops its own personality while keeping the growing conditions as consistent as possible. Today we're checking in with Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Plant B. And this week marks another important milestone. The canopy is full. The structure is ready. And we're preparing these beautiful ladies for their transition into flowering. ──────────────────────── 🌱 Week Seven – The Canopy Is Complete Looking across the Blue Tent this week, it's becoming increasingly difficult to distinguish the four plants from above. The SCROG has done exactly what we wanted it to do. Instead of four individual plants growing vertically, we now have one remarkably even canopy spreading across the available space. Plant B has been particularly well suited to this process. From the beginning, she's shown a natural tendency to grow outward rather than constantly trying to reach upward. Her compact structure, strong side branching and excellent response to training have allowed her to fill her section of the screen beautifully. After lowering and tightening the SCROG net, all four plants are now sitting at approximately 60 cm. At this point we're no longer trying to gain height. We're managing the surface we've created. Every branch has found its place. Every available section of the screen has been used. And now it's time to prepare that canopy for what comes next. ──────────────────────── 🕸️ SCROG – From Training to Flowering For anyone joining this diary without having followed the previous weeks, SCROG stands for Screen of Green. The purpose of the screen is to guide branches horizontally instead of allowing a few dominant tops to grow significantly taller than everything around them. As branches reach the screen, they're gently guided into neighbouring openings. This spreads the future flowering sites across a wider area and creates a much more uniform canopy. It's not about forcing the plant into an unnatural shape. It's about taking the growth the plant is already producing and distributing it more efficiently across the available space. And after several weeks of doing exactly that, the mission has essentially been completed. The screen is full. The canopy is even. Now we move into the cleanup phase. ──────────────────────── ✂️ Defoliation – Preparing the Plants for Flower This week's biggest job is defoliation. And because this technique is often misunderstood, it's worth explaining what we're actually doing. Defoliation isn't about stripping a plant of every leaf. Leaves are essential to the plant. They capture light and support photosynthesis, so removing healthy foliage without a reason isn't the objective. Instead, we're performing a deliberate canopy cleanup. After weeks of vigorous vegetative growth and SCROG training, the interior of the plants has become extremely dense. Leaves overlap. Branches cross through one another. Some areas are heavily shaded. And airflow through the middle of the canopy becomes increasingly important. So we're selectively removing foliage from areas where the density has become excessive. We're opening the interior. Creating more space between branches. Improving airflow. Improving visibility. And creating a cleaner structure for the flowering cycle. The objective isn't: "Remove as many leaves as possible." It's: "Remove what is no longer helping the structure we're trying to build." That's a very important difference. ──────────────────────── 🌬️ Why Defoliate Before the Flip? Timing is everything. A significant defoliation is a form of stress. Even when performed correctly, the plant needs some time to adjust to the loss of foliage and return to its normal growth rhythm. That's why we're doing this before flowering, rather than waiting until we're already well into the bloom cycle. Right now the plants are still running an 18/6 vegetative schedule. They have time to recover. We can perform the cleanup. We can watch how they respond. We can allow fresh growth to resume. And then we can flip the lights once the plants have settled again. I don't want to ask the plants to deal with a major cleanup at the same time they're dealing with the physiological transition into flowering. Instead, we're following a simple sequence: Build the canopy. Fill the screen. Clean the canopy. Recover. Flip. The goal is to enter flowering with healthy plants and a well-organised structure. ──────────────────────── 🌿 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Plant B Plant B continues showing exactly the personality we've come to know throughout this project. She's balanced. She's compact. She's incredibly branchy. And she seems perfectly happy growing sideways. While Plant A has always shown a little more vertical ambition, Plant B has naturally concentrated her energy into lateral growth and secondary branching. That has made her particularly enjoyable to work with under the SCROG. Her stems have continued thickening nicely, her internodal spacing remains compact, and her foliage has developed that rich green colour we've been looking for. The recovery from topping is now nothing more than a memory. She's completely moved on from that stage and has spent the last few weeks concentrating on building the framework that will eventually support her flowering sites. Looking at her now, it's easy to see how much the plant has changed. She's no longer simply a young vegetative plant. She's become a properly structured little bush with a full section of the canopy to her name. And now we're preparing her for the next chapter. ──────────────────────── 🥥 Feeding – Staying With What Works The nutrient recipe remains unchanged this week. Current feeding: • Plagron Hydro A — 1.9 ml/L • Plagron Hydro B — 1.9 ml/L • Plagron Hydro Roots — 1 ml/L Current pH: 5.8 Current EC: 1.92 mS/cm The plants continue showing excellent colour and vigorous growth, so I don't see a reason to change the recipe simply because we're approaching flowering. Sometimes consistency is the better decision. We'll see how the plants respond after defoliation, and depending on their recovery and appetite, we may increase the nutrient strength next week. For now, however, they're telling me exactly what I want to hear. Healthy colour. Strong growth. Good leaf posture. And no obvious signs that they're asking for anything different. So... Nothing changes. ──────────────────────── 💧 Drip Irrigation – Keeping the Roots Consistent The Mars Hydro automatic drip irrigation and drainage system continues to perform beautifully. Each plant is receiving approximately 1.2 litres of nutrient solution per 24 hours, delivered through the automated drip system. The slow and consistent irrigation keeps the coco supplied with fresh nutrient solution while the automatic drainage system removes the resulting runoff. This is particularly valuable in a project like this. Four plants are sharing the same environment. The same nutrient recipe. The same lighting. The same irrigation schedule. That consistency helps us keep another major variable under control. And as the plants become larger, the benefit becomes even more obvious. The irrigation system simply keeps doing its job every day. No rushing around with watering cans. No trying to remember which plant received what. Just consistent irrigation while I concentrate on observing the plants themselves. It's one of those systems that doesn't necessarily demand attention when it's working properly. And honestly... That's exactly how I like it. ──────────────────────── 🌡️ Blue Tent Environment The environmental conditions have remained very stable as we approach the transition into flowering. This week's average conditions were: • 🌡️ Day Temperature: 28°C • 🌙 Night Temperature: 25°C • 💧 Relative Humidity: 65% • 🥥 Substrate Temperature: 24°C • 💦 Nutrient Solution Temperature: 18°C • ⚗️ pH: 5.8 • ⚡ EC: 1.92 mS/cm • 💨 CO₂: approximately 450 ppm • 💡 Light Schedule: 18/6 • 💧 Irrigation: approximately 1.2 L/plant/24h • ? Pot Size: 8 L • 📏 Height: approximately 60 cm At this stage, stability is more important than constantly changing numbers. The plants are healthy. The canopy is full. The roots are receiving consistent irrigation. And the current nutrient strength is producing beautiful growth. So we're staying the course. ──────────────────────── 🌿 A Full Canopy Means a Different Kind of Work One of the interesting things about reaching this stage is that the work changes completely. Earlier in the grow, the challenge was getting the plants to occupy the space. Now the challenge is managing everything they've produced. When the canopy was still developing, every new branch was welcome. Now we have to start asking different questions. Does this leaf contribute enough? Is this area too crowded? Can air move through here? Is this branch getting enough light? Is this part of the plant going to benefit from remaining in the canopy? That's what good canopy management is really about. It's not simply growing as much as possible. It's deciding what growth deserves to remain part of the final structure. And Plant B has given us plenty to work with. ──────────────────────── Recovery Before Flowering Once the defoliation is complete, the most important thing we can do is give the plants time. No unnecessary additional stress. No rushing. No immediately piling another major intervention on top of the first one. The plants need time to rebalance after the cleanup. We'll watch the new growth. We'll monitor their posture and overall appearance. We'll keep the environment stable. And we'll let them recover. Once they're settled again, we'll be ready to move forward. This is why the timing of the defoliation matters so much. We're not trying to make the plants do everything at once. We're preparing them step by step. ──────────────────────── 👀 Looking Ahead The next few days should be particularly interesting. The SCROG has been filled. The canopy has been cleaned. The plants now have room to breathe. And we're approaching the moment we've been working toward for weeks. The nutrient recipe will remain unchanged for now, although we may increase it once we see how the plants respond after defoliation. The irrigation continues at approximately 1.2 litres per plant per day. The environment remains stable. And most importantly... We're not rushing the flip. We'll allow the plants to recover properly first. Then, when they're ready... We flower. 🌸 ──────────────────────── 💙 Thank You A huge thank you to Zamnesia for making Project Blue Tent possible and for providing these outstanding Pickle Lemon Haze F1 genetics.

This is one of the strains that is doing very well in both the technical/free versions, we are talking about the Fruti Punch Automatic by Zamnesia. Remember that we are growing a plant worked with the techniques indicated and another left to grow without pruning to preserve its speed; in the previous/next diary you will find the other plant of the same variety. In this diary we find a plant worked with a technique that I have recently become passionate about thanks to my friend Yan402 who in a discussion convinced me to study it further also on autoflowering plants, now I am having a lot of fun. This plant is eure being a medium low internode it has been worked with a very precise Main Lining, I have also done much better in terms of elegance but I like this one a lot too. Comparison is the salt of experience, so the plant in the other diary will be treated very differently, go and see it to make a comparison. We started the Plagron fertilization program, we are in 100% organic configuration, the soil is made up of recycled Promix + 1/3 fresh soil + 10% Perlite + RQS Mycorrhizae Mix (4 g in the mix, 1 g under the small fiber pot). In the middle of the week the pre-flowering started so I decided to start the program for this phase: 1 ml/l of Power Roots - 1 ml/l of Pure Zym - 1 ml/l of Sugar Royal - 1 ml/l of Power Buds - 4 ml/l of Alga Bloom Remember the Green Sensation from the 3rd/4th week of flowering depending on the flowering speed or how you see the calyxes composing, when the calyx is in the swelling phase it is used. We sprayed 5 ml/l of Vita Race foliar fertilizer once a week. ------------------------------------------------- https://plagron.com/it We always have the excellent RQS mycorrhizae running through the soil. https://www.zamnesia.io/it/5778-mix-micorrhiza-easy-roots.html One of the best in recent years with a very high THC level -------------------------------------------------------- https://www.zamnesia.io/en/10965-zamnesia-seeds-fruit-punch-automatic.html Brief description of Zamnesia // Sativa strains are very rewarding to grow, but their long flowering times and their greater susceptibility to disease and overfertilization can make them a little more difficult to manage. Also, their imposing heights are less suitable for indoor use and can attract unwanted attention if grown outdoors. However, with the arrival of Fruit Punch Automatic, growing sativa strains at home just got a whole lot easier. Combining Skunk #1, Haze and ruderalis, Fruit Punch Auto is 70% sativa dominant and produces up to 21% THC, along with a delicious blend of terpenes. Plus, it can be grown indoors, outdoors and in greenhouses. With their bright green hues, golden pistils and thick layer of resin, Fruit Punch Auto buds always have a great appeal. When you smoke her, you will be amazed by her flavours, aromas and effects! As the name suggests, Fruit Punch Automatic boasts delicious tropical aromas reminiscent of banana, pineapple, mango and citrus. When you open the jars you will feel like you are in a tropical cocktail bar on an exotic beach. Fruit Punch Auto will delight your palate with pungent fruity notes followed by light notes of Skunk and spice on the exhale. Within minutes of your first hit, this potent sativa will stimulate your mind, leaving you in an energetic and carefree state, ideal for morning or daytime sessions, as well as social settings or creative pursuits. The whole world of growing and much more is on Zamnesia: just take a look at the site and you will find "all the best that nature has to offer" in various shapes and colors. --------------- www.zamnesia.com

31.10. - Finally entering the flower stage, really excited about my first auto yield. Adjusted and added a few new ties on the biggest one. Removed ties from middle one to let her stretch out a bit. Watered. 2.10. - Added one more ml/l of Bio Bloom to the mix. I can already see some sugar one the leaves and many new bud sites. Watered. 6.10. - Just wow. All three plants are showing nice progress. The smallest one, which was stunted by overwatering in seedling stage shot out new branches and I'm not sure if it's good in almost 7th week. Plucked out few leaves on all three to expose the bud sites. 31.10. - 6.11.2023

Day 57 - The plant looks great, healthy! The buds are looks great also. Day 58 - The plant is looking great i just watered her today looks like she might have a bit of water shock. I gave the plant some PH controlled water but i didn't take into account the soil so the whole thing didn't make a difference. Day 59 - The plant looks amazing. Defoliated her a little more today.I'm noticing the smell more prominently now as well; Also we done some seriouse decore change today so the whole place looks like a bud box we got the other plants from my diaries featuring in a the video. Day 60 - She is well and growing. Day 61 - Was to busy running around didnt take a pic its a shame but its okay. Day 62 - The buds are forming nicely plant is stretching out for the last time. The plant is also dry and will need watering tomorrow. I raised the light today as she is very tall now and was nearly touching the light. Day 63 - The plant got fed PH 5 water, so she looks a bit droopy from water shock but; she will spring back to life like she normally does. Looks like the plant is doing well though.

En el comienzo de esta 3a semana de vegetación, parece que la situación va mejorando, gracias a las personas que me aconsejaron bien, para no entrar en pánico... seguramente estaban estresadas y ya les paso...😂😂😂 en fin, esta semana subo el EC a 0,6, distancia de las luces a 1,2 mtr y veremos cómo procede. Tengo ganas de probar una CORTE APICAL con este cultivo y ver qué beneficios me trae; si alguien lee esto y me quiere aconsejar cuando y cómo hacerlo, soy todo oídos.

Day 56: Like I said in the 2 weeks before this one, I was on vacation and a friend took care of my plants. This is the last week he helped out, I will be taking care of them again in the upcomming week. Well what can I say about this week; - Weather/climate was still bad. Lots of rain and cold temps. - They kind of failed with Low stress training, they went up and stretched without proper bending. - One plant has already mature looking buds but still on the small size. Two/three of them are going well and one is falling behind flowering wise. - They look nicely green tought. Until next week.

This garbage plant that was supposed to be an autoflower but was a photoperiod turned hermaphrodite on me. Not a few pollen sacks but tons everywhere. I noticed some pollen on some of the closer plants leaves so I hope it didn't fuck em up. I'm hoping that they are so early in flower that it won't pollinate em FOR EVERYTHING MARS HYDRO VISIT: www.mars-hydro.com www.marshydroled.ca PROMO CODE: rocknroll VISIT THE ALIEXPRESS STORE: @marshydro_aliexpress Instagram: @marshydropenny https://youtube.com/channel/UChU5ZWwNi-DvnO3oWVU3ceA (NEW) STRIVE NUTRIENTS 💪

This week went well I am continuing to harvest buds as they become ready. The leaves are yellowing more and more letting me know that she is almost complete. I think the lower bids have about one more week until they are ready and that will complete the harvest for Big Girl. Little girl is now declining, she has not branches out or grown new tops.
