I can't believe this was a emergency replacement seed, is one whole week behind the rest and still looks and smells super promising. This lady can drink liters per day, every day I find the top 5cm layer of soil dry. She usually receives about 1-1.2L water per day.

Some high-stress training was required. Fartbutt (the plant on the right) outgrew the container again, so I intentionally snapped the top to prevent further upward growth (I left it attached so it could still form a central cola.

Waiting for first signs of life … While we are, I thought I’d give you a short explanation on the software’s graphics in case you did not follow my first diary. The one to the upper left, as its headline says, is the temperature graph. Most important line is the red one, showing the leaf temperature measured with an infrared temperature sensor. As there are no leaves yet, it is pointed towards one of the pot’s wall at soil level. Air temperature from a sensor that usually hangs around somewhere around top level is violet, and the grey line is the outside temperature close to the tent, helping the software to determine if a main blower action will effectively lower temperature. As I learned from the first grow a plant day that corresponds to the natural day can cause enormous gaps both to temperature and humidity, I inverted the plant day now, starting their night at 11 a.m. So after the first day temperature will only vary around 1.5 °C, which is of course due to the low light intensity too. Humidity graph on the upper right is quite crowded. Main line is the blue one, tent air humidity, which on this first day was between excellent 65 – 70% most of the time. For the moment humidifier is electrically disabled. There is quite some excess humidity on the tent floor and no reason to push this any further. Outside air humidity is grey again and taken from the same outside sensor that reports outside temperature. The soil humidity sensors are simple analogue capacitive sensors which have their flaws. I am interpolating their measurements to have a somewhat smoother reading, but as you can see from the turquoise humidifier reservoir reading (in legend named as plant soil hum 1), they can get confused when humidity is very high and start to report random numbers for some time. The most important graph for all growing stages is the lower left one, where the pink line meaning plant VPD should be inside the green optimum range for somewhat perfect conditions. This cannot be attained all of the time – dehumidifying isn’t as easy as humidifying –, but software tries its best to do so. Outside VPD is grey again. The last graph is more for amusement than anything else. The light intensity sensor is hard to position correctly, and everything you see about illumination and DLI (orange and green, plus grey for the accumulated 24 h DLI) should be taken with some spoonful of salt. Any resemblance to real world professional instrument readings can be considered purely coincidental. The violet line is the CO2 reading from such a sensor, and you can see that its tiny peaks correspond to even tinier black peaks at the bottom of the graph, reading TVOC values which in this case, once they will be more than possible measurement irregularities, can be interpreted as smell. ------- End of week 1: All seeds germinated. I wasn’t at home most of the time, and it turned out using the humidity sensor to monitor the humidifier’s tank wasn’t good for the stability of the system. Arduino crashed, so there are no pictures yet and no graphs to show. I have the feeling light was a bit low as the seedlings grew a bit tall, but with lights now up to 20% I guess this problem is fixed. More tomorrow when I have some more data to share. Even more end of week 1 (I extended this week to 9 days as I cannot tell when the seedlings started to show): Lights are at 40%, meaning 40 W in total. No reason to give them new water until next week. As some flies showed up from the BioBizz soil, I added 2 yellow cards. So far, everything in normal ranges. I’ll switch the control to grow phase soon which will raise the VPD slightly by 0.5 kPa. It’s interesting to see the CO2 level started to climb by 50% during their last night and has not come down to baseline afterwards. I restarted the app to check if the sensor had lost its calibration, but it still sits at around 660 ppm now.

3/6: Yesterday I fed half strength nutrients ph'd to both. Amnesia's runoff ph was 5.5. So I made another half gallon of half strength and ph'd it to 7.5 to get Amnesia's runoff to be 6.5. If only I had done this sooner and didn't mess up with the PH testing drops as opposed to using a ph meter, Amnesia's leaves could have still been green. I've been removing all of the dried, crispy ends as I find them, leaving the rest of the leaf intact to suck up as much light as possible. Timelapses are showing that the buds are fattening up well though. Trichome production has kicked in and is covering the leaves. Beautiful colors all around. 3/8: I don't think I can wait any longer to feed Amnesia. Vacation starts midday tomorrow, Thursday, and I'll be away until Monday evening. I'm mixing up a half strength nutrient mix with molasses and epsom salt. I'm also going to try to set up a timer/pump system to water sunday night.

13.06. Cherry Poppers 1# Day 49# Cherry Poppers 2# Day 46# The plants are making good progress, the deuce has overtaken the ace, the game has reversed. 5 nights ago there was a strong storm, the morning after the storm when I came to the site, I found some plants crooked, some normal, but there were no broken ones, thank God, but they were very stressed and what you can see in the pictures appeared on the leaves, some leaves were crispy at the edges, but still green, mostly shoots before the newest ones. I haven't had this problem before, I researched a bit on the internet and came to the conclusion that the wind burned them, and I also turned to GW for an opinion, two characters confirmed my opinion. Two days later I noticed that the matter was getting worse and that it was spreading, which worried me, so I contacted GW again for an opinion. Some told me that it was mold, some that it was an infection, disease and so on, mostly guesswork, but no one specifically told me what was certain, so I decided on nim oil, and whatever it is, I guess the problem should be solved. According to some leaves, I would say that insects might be the problem, but I really don't know, I haven't had similar problems before. I regulate the ph of the plants, I still don't feed them, there is food in the ground for another week, except for the fact that I added cal-mag after that storm when I watered them. I want to say that the plants are certainly not locked, and the heat is not yet so high that this would happen from the same, the more the temperatures have dropped and now it is perfect. Since transplanting, I have watered the plants only 2 times. Yesterday morning they were topped for the second time, only the main branches, I will do the next topping of the side branches. Last night I sprayed the plants with neem oil and already today the problem seems to be going away, if I tripped at least it doesn't spread further, that's for sure. I didn't mix the oil very well, I didn't add any soap or anything like that because I wouldn't really spray the plants with any chemicals, and on some of the leaves on one or two plants there is that thick, brownish liquid, so I hope it won't hurt them, I noticed that today during the day, I couldn't see it at night. I still don't know what the problem is, but my guess is still that the wind burned them or some insects. Speaking of insects, I think I noticed thrips on one plant on the underside of the leaf, so in addition to the neem oil I already gave, I also ordered SMC, so I will spray that at least once a week while they are still young. Happy Growing and Stay High!!!

All plants are ready to come down now will be harvested in the next couple of days. As it ends in the tent there’s one Banana one 10th and the skunk Hero in joint position for best looking flowers, I really couldn’t pick between them so I guess all have lots to offer across phenotypes and it really is mostly good. The other banana and -0th are by no means bad oh they’re really nice too. The Genetics surely do pass the test for me. If you want to be sure what you grow will be of decent quality Ethos really are worth a try. Harvest this month will be bountiful, beautiful, aromatic and will fuck you up😉😂 all three had phenos that grew really nice dense flowers, the ones that’ll light up your eyes as you open up your stash pot.

Growing it was quite a journey. Since I had a lot of changes in my life, I couldn't take the time I wanted to make a good diary, but I still managed to take some pictures. I had some problems since I changed the size of my pots and didn't use LST. One plant grew so tall that it went above the LED, and other plants were too close to the LED. Using three 20L pots in a 60cm x 60cm space was too much; they didn't have enough room. For the next grow, I'll use only two pots and employ SCROG and LST

A big hello to all the cannabis growing gardeners...and all the other visitors that came across my grow journal. This week was very relaxing, i add only PH+ (again ;), Calmag and PowerZyme. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Now cannabis smell is overpowering in my grow room I can finally write something about Spider Farmers 6-Inch Inline Fan with Smart Controller and Carbon Filter :) As my grow room gets really stinky at times i always invest in a top shelf carbon filter almost twice the size of the one provided by Spider Farmer, to my shock Spider Farmer carbon filter absorbs the smells wonderfully well. No smell leaks and that just when the fan is running at 5 out of 10 levels of output. The smart controller is something completely new to me, and had a lot of fun experimenting with it during the veg and early flower, when the smell began i needed it to run full time at level 4 or 5 to rid the fragnance. All in all the whole combo is a great deal. If you are not as keen on technology the set without the controller is awesome on it's own. But to have some extra options open, the controller at the device throws at you a ton of settings you can use to optemiase you grow enviornment. The SE 7000 is hanged at 40 cm. over the canopy and runs at 550W. This whole grow's main sponsor is Spider Farmer. You can easily obtain all the great grow equipment we use at: spider-farmer.com A big thank you to Jessie and the whole Spider Farmer crew for supporting me with the newest technological advancements in horticulture. Thanks to them what i do here is possible. Thank you Zamnesia for giving me the opportunity to try out your stock. zamnesia.com/uk/7686-zamnesia-seeds-do-si-dos.html 20% discount code: ZAMMIGD2023 Plagron did send us their Contest package for the Power Buds competition . Thank you for your visit, please leave a like and hope to see you beck here in about a week.

They seem to react in a good way when I water them at PH6.3 just water,a PH of 6.5 at feeding time. Some of the older leaves turned yellow so I did some pruning on them.

Added some CO2 to help with photosynthesis while at higher temps. These ladies really blew up at the end of last week and this week! The smell has really starting to be noticeable and pistols / flowers are finally showing! Side note I finally got more seeds to replace the one I lost early on. These ladies are really starting to become a treasure. Ended my LST this week.

Hello all and welcome back to my grow. First and foremost it would be awesome if you would please hit that like and follow button and feel free to leave a comment. Much appreciated 🙏! I hoping for some good growth this week and planning on topping all the plants for the first time. I'll also be adding a air intake fan and filter this week. This will help maintain levels of CO2 in the tent as well as bring in warm air to help maintain Temps. Also once it's not below zero degrees lol ill connect the intake to draw air from outside which will be cooler. The air intake is coming into the tent from the bottom and then exhausted back out. The air intake will also allow me to turn up my outtake without the issue of negative pressure. I'll also be adding all organic organacide prevention measures this week. The ladies are still coming out of a week where they were over watered. Most of them are looking good, one has dry leaves and not looking hot. I'm thinking she will pull through as there is still new growth daily. Day 15 Feb 15th- No water today. Topped Tahoe OG today. I miss counted nodes and wished I would have waited one more node, but oh well. Day 16 Feb 16th- No water Day 17 Feb 17th- All plants received 30 ML of water directed at the stem as well as a foliar spraying to wet the top of the soil. Added air intake. Humidity set back to 65. Gently bent leaves down to expose undergrowth Day 18 Feb 18th- plants had explosive growth over night 😁. All plants recieved 90 ML of water. Water had Mykos. Gently bent leaves down to expose undergrowth. Day 19 Feb 19th- all plants recieved 1 solo cup full of water. Only one plant had a tiny bit of run off. Plants looking healthy. Day 20 Feb 20th- No water today. Turned on air intake. Turned off humidifier. Day 21 Feb 21st- No water today. Upon inspection at end of light cycle from yesterday saw fungus gnats. I assume it'd from the previous overwater and never letting soil completely dry. Drying soil.. have neem oil ready to go if need. Upon inspection if lights on same or less gnats. Only about 5. Trimmed first leaves and singles from all plants.

🗓️ 2° WEEK FLO // DAY 8-14 (from switch) // DAY 85-91 (from dry seed) ⚡- Light: 40 cm / 200 watt; ⌛- Schedule: 12/12; 🌡️- 23° C - 65% RH average; 📑- PH 6 - EC 2; 🥅- Bending the #1 branches trough the ScrOG-net, the other one just touches the net; 🌱- By the end of this week they begins the flowering, I can clearly see preflowers! We can definitively say that gradual approach to the switch doesn't make things faster; 🔜- Next week I'll make a new heavy defoliation.

For me it was a bad and regular growth .. I prefer other varieties
