🥒 Project Blue Tent – Week 4 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Pheno A (Folder 14A) Hello everyone, and welcome back to another update from Project Blue Tent! 💙🌱 For anyone joining this journey for the first time, this project follows four individual plants, each documented in its own diary from seed to harvest. Although every plant shares the exact same environment, nutrients, lighting, and care, each one is given the opportunity to tell its own unique story and reveal how its genetics express themselves. Today we're catching up with Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Plant A. ⸻ 🌱 Week Four – Recovery and New Beginnings Last week marked an important milestone when Plant A received her very first topping. This week, however, was all about patience. After performing a high-stress training technique, I always prefer giving the plant time to recover before asking anything more of her. Rather than continuing with additional training, I simply let nature do its job while carefully observing how she responded. Sometimes, the best thing a grower can do is... nothing. Looking at her now, it's safe to say she appreciated that decision. The recovery has been outstanding. The two new leading shoots have quickly taken over, growth has remained vigorous throughout the entire plant, and the side branches are now pushing with much greater determination than before. The change in architecture is already becoming obvious, with the canopy beginning to widen naturally as the plant redirects its energy away from a single dominant tip. It's always rewarding to watch such a dramatic transformation from one small cut. ⸻ 🌡️ Environmental Conditions Consistency continues to be one of the biggest priorities inside Project Blue Tent. Stable environmental conditions allow the plants to recover quickly from training while encouraging continuous vegetative growth. Average conditions this week were: • 🌡️ Day temperature: 27°C • 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C • 💧 Relative humidity: 67% • 🥥 Root zone temperature: 24°C • 💦 Nutrient solution: 18°C • ⚗️ pH: 5.8 • ⚡ EC: 1.88 mS/cm • 💨 CO₂: approximately 450 ppm • 💡 Light schedule: 18/6 With the Phytonaut LED providing an even spread across the canopy, the plants continue receiving all the energy they need while maintaining compact internodal spacing and healthy vegetative growth. ⸻ 🥥 Feeding Adjustments As mentioned in the previous updates, all four plants developed a slightly lighter shade of green during the last couple of weeks. Although their posture remained excellent and growth never slowed down, I felt they were asking for just a little more nutrition. Rather than waiting for deficiencies to appear, I increased the base feeding slightly. Current nutrition now consists of: • Plagron Hydro A — 1.8 ml/L • Plagron Hydro B — 1.8 ml/L • Plagron Hydro Roots — 1 ml/L By the end of this week I was already beginning to notice a richer, healthier green returning to the newest foliage across the entire tent, suggesting the adjustment was exactly what the plants were asking for. One of the things I'm really enjoying about growing in coco is how quickly the plants respond to small, measured changes. ⸻ 🌿 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Plant A This phenotype continues to impress me every single week. The recovery after topping has been remarkably smooth, and it's already clear that the plant has shifted into a completely different growth pattern. The two new main leaders are developing beautifully, while the lower branches are accelerating as they receive more energy than they would have under normal apical dominance. Instead of growing upward through one dominant stem, the plant is now beginning to spread outward, creating the broad, balanced framework I'm hoping to build before introducing the SCROG later in the grow. The stems continue to thicken nicely, the internodal spacing remains tight, and the foliage has maintained excellent posture throughout the week. Although she's still carrying that slightly lighter shade of green, the improvement in colour over the last few days is already noticeable, and her overall posture tells the real story. Leaves are praying toward the light. Growth is continuous. The plant simply looks happy. ⸻ 🔍 Looking Ahead Next week should be another exciting step forward. With the topping now fully recovered, I expect both new leaders to begin stretching more aggressively while the side branches continue filling out the canopy. For now, I'll continue allowing the plant to develop naturally, avoiding unnecessary stress and simply monitoring her structure as she prepares for the next stage of vegetative growth. Every week these genetics reveal a little more of their personality, and Plant A is becoming exactly the kind of bushy, well-balanced plant I was hoping to create. ⸻ 💙 Thank You A huge thank you goes to Zamnesia for making Project Blue Tent possible, from these fantastic Pickle Lemon Haze F1 genetics to the complete ecosystem surrounding this grow. A sincere thank you as well to Plagron for providing the Premium Coco Growbags together with the Hydro nutrient line that continues supporting healthy growth every step of the way. Thank you to GrowDiaries for providing a place where growers from around the world can document their journeys, share experiences, and continue learning from one another. And finally, thank you to everyone following along. Whether you've been here since germination, recently discovered these diaries, leave comments every week, quietly follow in the background, or simply enjoy watching these ladies grow, your support genuinely means a lot. Project Blue Tent is about sharing the complete journey—the successes, the lessons, the experiments, and everything in between. I hope you're all having an amazing week, and I look forward to seeing you again in the next update as these beautiful ladies continue their adventure. Until next time... Growers Love, happy growing, and take care everyone! 🌱💙

27-08-2026 Somehow it’s hard for me to keep updating the progress of my cannabisplants. I wanted to do it weekly, but it just doesn’t happen. Our fruits and vegetables need to be harvested and our animals want a lot of attention too! I’m so happy growing with Biotabs, I hardly have to do anything and if I don’t have time, my plants are growing anyway In week 16 (first signs of pre-flowering) all the plants got watered with 5 litres of water with 20 ml of Bio PK 5-8 and in week 20 again, 20 ml of Bio PK 5-8 diluted in 5 litres of water. This is the third time I had to water the plants manually. I just love this way of growing. Perfect for someone with a chronic illness. Flowering started earlier than last year. I’m so happy, maybe these Early Versions will finish in time, before the autumn rains are coming. The plants have a nice green colour. I still need to ‘shave the legs’ and cut some branches and leaves away at the inside of the plant. Especially now when it rains sometimes I want them to dry quickly. I already removed two baskets of leaves and small branches from NL x Big Bud and Burger Kush. GMO Fast isn’t flowering yet. She is only showing a few pre-flower hairs. I think she won’t make it in time… GMO Fast also had some issues during a summer storm with heavy winds and rain. One of her main branches came down. It was still attached to the centre of the plant, but it began to rot and I had to cut it out. I lost 25% of this plant. It’s my own fault. She is over 2,5 metres now and her height makes her susceptible for wind. It makes me think about securing all my plants with long bamboo-poles or sticks. If the flowers start growing, all those branches will get heavy eventually. Maybe it’s time to prioritize the cannabisplants at this moment…

We start week 3 of bloom!! Goofiez 2 amor compound genetics it’s the champions!!

Harvest done 250g

Started big bud in week 2 along with some cal max, all the girls are looking healthy and the stretch seems to be slowing may defoliate again this week coming up. This is actually the end of week 2 was fairly busy and not able to update earlier. Going a lot smoother then my first grow /crosses fingers.

Explosive growth through the week, flipping to flower at the end of this week as plants have reached their 2foot marker. 2 foot tall is my limit for vegetive growth as the plants become unmanageable beyond that.

bending some sticks to give better light penetration to lower parts of the plants. Added green grass layer for bacteria and better watering ability. Just added NeemOil one time to prevent fungus gnats. Rest of the time only watering once a day a little amount. Terps start to develop: Tezla OG = kushy, planty smell Marshmallow OG = Kushy Earthy smell Nutter Budder = Super Nutty and Calí Kushy Smell the best one out of the three yet.

As you can see one of the phenos is flowering actively but the other one is still vegetating. I had to supercropp the vegetative one, because she was growing very tall and was going to burn her leaves. Other than that everything is great ✌️

Week 5 already of Guava. She finally reached a good size and the first pistils started to show. Very excited about her stretching and the growth in the next weeks. Had some aphids this week, but spotted them early and could just remove them (about five or six only). So far no new are visible, but will watch closely.

Time to start flushing:)))))

The purple punch which suffered light stretch is yellowing, the stems are thin comparing to the other purple punch. What surprises me is the fact the yellowing plant forming colorful purple colors I cant wait to see the bud formation because this 2 grows are fully organic.

This week has been amazing. I did some defoliation since last week but you can hardly tell. She has been taking the 3.0 EC real well I thought I definitely had hermed it but damn if she isn’t resilient. I e noticed she drinks 6gal rn I feel that’s gonna ramp up these last coming weeks. This Autopot system has really changed everything I don’t got to worry about any timers or anything just check my ph and that’s it. Drip hydro was kind enough to let us test out the nutrients so shout out to them. See you all guys next week.

Week 7 begins for LSD. She's bulking up, packing lots of frost and she's got a killer sweat berry citrus smell. Switched out big bud coco for overdrive. Thanks for stopping by, tune in next week for another episode 👽🌳🔥

Transitioned to flower changed my metal halide 600w bulb to my HPS 600w bulb put the LEDs to 100% an switch the COB bloom setting on, starting my flowering nutrient feed rotation. Keeping it stupid simple this time around taking the advice of some of y'all on here as well as seeing checking others who have grown the exact strains I'm growing from the same seed companies, looking at their methods and looking closely at the ones that came out good obviously can't repeat their process exactly but it's a great uhh what's the word. shit.. reference?? I'm not sure if that's what I'm looking for... But yeah just having examples and adding new tools or methods adding onto my notes, but yeah exciting week ahead I'm gunna have to organize the tent more so I can make sure they have enough room as they start to stretch outward.

12/5 - Feeding begins! I call this my official day 1 of veg. The Critical +2.0 must think this is a race. Made up 1.5 liter of nutrient water for all plants. 12/6 - Babies getting RO today (6.4ph). The Dosido is giving me a hard time, I've got one good one. 12/7 - I've lost 3 seedlings leaving me with 23 plants to work with. Mostly all plants have their 4 little leaves grown out. Made up 1.5 liter of nutrients for feeding, used about half bottle. (6.0ph) 12/8 - Used remainder of nutrient water and topped all pots with RO (6.3ph) to maintain soil moisture. 12/9 - Made up 1.5 liter of nutrients (6.1ph), half in am and last half in pm with RO to maintain moisture. 12/10 - 12/11 - Looking good.

Hi 👋 Geerntet an Blüte Tag 83 Es ist vollbracht. Lady Broccoli hat die letzten Wochen richtig abgeliefert. Die Buds sind steinhart und unglaublich schwer. Das LST hat die Gute dankend angenommen. Trotz der kurzen vegetative Phase ist das Ergebniss eindrucksvoll. Das war ein sehr schöner Grow und ich bin wirklich positiv überrascht, und von der Lady B. verzaubert. Vielen lieben Dank an das Team von Zamnesia und Plagron für diesen tollen Contest und die Bereitstellung der Samen und dem Dünger. Es hat wirklich Spass gemacht. Ich bin nächtes Jahr selbstverständlich wieder dabei. Respekt an alle Teilnehmer des Contest. Ich habe ne Menge Diaries besucht, und wunderschöne Pflanzen begutachten dürfen. 👍 Gruß M.

They've started to grow their first sets of leaves and although temperature was a little higher than I'd liked they're coming along nicely. You can see the difference from just three days growth and then 3 days afer that! Adding a small amount of bio canna vega and molasses.
