It's been an alright week, I guess. I'm very concerned about the area around the stem split on UKBS 2, as there is a tan-brown area appearing near it. I'd be incredibly disappointed if I were to lose UKBS 2 as it's one of my most vigorous plants currently. In other news, the tent will be flipped to flower in a couple days after I water UKBS 1 and ensure there are no ongoing nutrient issues. Looking forward to seeing Carl's bud structure. 5/3/2021 - The split in UKBS 2 still has ambiguous effects. There seems to be issues appearing at the bases of other nodes. I have started spraying with 2% vinegar solution in case it's white mold, I'm not a fan of losing this one. In other news, the tent has been flipped; waiting on flowers.

11/17: I fed today but didn't have time for much of a photo session. Gave them One, Signal, Sweet & Sticky, Cha Ching, and started them on LiquidSoil. 11/19: Still fattening, and beginning to frost up as well.

Week 7-8 from seed Northern lights freebee from rqs It’s still recovering from dense soil mistake and also fighter nites Last year

Woche 2 ist rum und es läuft gut. Alle wachsen gleichmäßig, die eine schneller, die andere langsamer. Demnächst werde ich die ersten beiden toppen. Welche, erkennt man 😉 es gibt nur Wasser, kein Training, kein Dünger, das startet Ende kommender Woche. Es läuft gut 👍 bis nächste Woche ✌️

🥒 Project Blue Tent – Week 8 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 from seed all the way through harvest, with each phenotype receiving her own dedicated diary. All four sisters share the same tent, lighting, irrigation, nutrition, environmental conditions and overall training strategy. The idea is simple: Keep the variables as consistent as possible and let the genetics tell the story. And this week... The story is getting very interesting. Because all four girls have entered flowering with absolutely no intention of slowing down. Today we're giving the spotlight to Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Plant B. And once again... She's shining. 💙🌱 ──────────────────────── 🌸 Week Eight – Flower Has Arrived The Blue Tent has officially entered the next chapter. After seven full weeks of vegetation, we're now running 12/12, and the response from the plants has been immediate. Plant B is now sitting around 81 cm, compared with approximately 60 cm when we finished the vegetative phase. That's a serious amount of growth in a very short period. And what's particularly impressive is that the plants aren't simply stretching upward. They're developing everywhere. The branches are extending. New growth is appearing rapidly. Flowering sites are becoming more obvious every day. And the first real signs of bud development are now beautifully visible throughout Plant B's structure. This is the point where all those weeks of preparation start becoming meaningful. The SCROG gave us the structure. The defoliation opened the canopy. The training created the framework. And now... Flowering is filling that framework. ──────────────────────── 🌿 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Plant B Plant B continues to be one of those girls that makes me stop and look twice. Her foliage is lush, vibrant and beautifully green, and the overall health of the plant is exactly where I want it to be. The developing flowers are progressing quickly, with fresh pistils and new growth appearing throughout the canopy. And despite the speed at which she's developing, she's still maintaining a remarkably even structure. That's something I really appreciate about this phenotype. She has always been a cooperative plant. She responds well to training. She builds strong lateral growth. And even now, with flowering underway and the stretch accelerating, she's still giving us a canopy that is relatively easy to manage. At least... As easy as four extremely vigorous plants can be. 😂 ──────────────────────── 💥 Super Cropping – Keeping the Canopy Under Control The biggest challenge right now isn't getting these girls to grow. They've already made that part very clear. The challenge is managing how quickly they're growing. We're continuing to use super cropping on selected branches as another tool for managing the most vigorous vertical growth. The idea is to reduce the dominance of certain shoots, redistribute growth and encourage stronger branching points as the plants continue developing. And these girls are making me work for it. I'll carefully work a branch down... Come back later... And somehow it's already standing back up again. 😂🌱 They're determined. But that's actually what makes this stage so interesting. We're not trying to stop their natural growth. We're trying to work with it. The canopy is already very even, and we're simply making small interventions where necessary to keep the most aggressive growth from getting too far ahead. Whether we'll successfully keep everybody compact throughout the stretch? Well... Let's see. They certainly haven't read that part of the plan. ──────────────────────── 🌸 Bud Formation – Things Are Moving Quickly One of the most exciting changes this week is the speed of flower development. We're only at the beginning of flowering, yet Plant B is already showing beautiful formation throughout the canopy. The sites we've spent weeks creating and positioning are now beginning to transform. Pistils are appearing. Clusters are becoming more defined. And every day there's another little sign that tells me: We're properly in flower now. This is one of those moments where you can finally see the purpose behind all the earlier work. The individual branches aren't just branches anymore. They're becoming future flowers. And Plant B has plenty of them. ──────────────────────── 🌱 Seven Weeks of Vegetation – Was It Too Much? Looking at Plant B now, I'm still wondering whether I gave these girls too much vegetative time. Seven weeks of vegetation is considerably longer than I normally run. Usually, I'd flip earlier. But the extra time gave us something valuable: A very established canopy. Strong branches. A developed root system. And a structure capable of supporting a lot of flowering growth. The downside is becoming very obvious now. These plants have an incredible amount of momentum. They grew from roughly 60 cm to around 81 cm incredibly quickly, and they're still moving. So there is definitely a little bit of: "What have I created?" 😂 happening in the grow room right now. But worrying about it isn't going to make the plants grow slower. We've prepared them. We've trained them. We've opened the canopy. We're managing the stretch. Now we watch. And we see where these girls want to take us. ──────────────────────── 💡 Strong Light From the Beginning The transition into flowering also means we're starting with approximately 800 PPFD across the canopy. I want these girls to have strong light available from the beginning of flower rather than slowly creeping toward higher intensity. They're already extremely vigorous, so the idea is to give them the photons they need while closely observing how the canopy responds. The challenge is balancing that strong light with the environmental conditions and the very significant stretch we're already seeing. I'm particularly interested in seeing whether the combination of strong light and continued canopy management can help keep the plants from becoming excessively elongated. Because if there's one thing Plant B has demonstrated this week... It's that she has absolutely no shortage of energy. ──────────────────────── 🌡️ Blue Tent Environment The room continues to run with remarkably consistent conditions across all four sisters. This week's recorded averages were: • 🌡️ Day Temperature: 27°C • 🌙 Night Temperature: 27°C • 💧 Relative Humidity: 67% • 🥥 Substrate Temperature: 24°C • 💦 Nutrient Solution: 19.1°C • ⚗️ pH: 5.81 • ⚡ EC: 2.09 mS/cm • 💨 CO₂: approximately 666 ppm • 💡 Light Schedule: 12/12 • 💧 Irrigation: approximately 1.4 L/plant/24h • ? Pot Size: 8 L • 📏 Plant Height: approximately 81 cm One thing that continues to stand out is the relatively small difference between day and night temperatures. We're sitting around 27°C for both. That can contribute to continued stretching, and considering how quickly these girls are already growing, it's something I'm keeping firmly in mind. But for now, Plant B is responding beautifully. Healthy foliage. Strong development. Rapid flower formation. And no obvious signs that she's unhappy with her environment. ──────────────────────── 🥥 Feeding – Supporting the Transition The flowering nutrition is now established. Current feeding: • Plagron Hydro A — 2 ml/L • Plagron Hydro B — 2 ml/L • Plagron Hydro Roots — 1 ml/L • Plagron Power Buds — 1 ml/L • pH Plus — 0.03 ml/L • pH Min — 0.03 ml/L Current EC: 2.09 mS/cm pH: 5.81 The plants are consuming aggressively and developing extremely quickly, so the nutritional strategy is now supporting that transition without making unnecessary changes simply for the sake of changing something. Plant B's colour is exactly what I want to see. That beautiful, lush green foliage is telling me that she's handling the current program very well. And when I look at the flowering sites developing throughout the canopy... I'm certainly not seeing a plant asking me to interfere. So for now: We stay consistent. Observe. Measure. Adjust only when necessary. ──────────────────────── 💧 The Drip & Drainage System – One Continuous Loop The automatic irrigation and drainage setup has become one of my favourite parts of this project. Plant B is now receiving approximately 1.4 litres of nutrient solution every 24 hours through the drip irrigation system. The process is beautifully simple. The drippers deliver the nutrient solution directly to the coco. The solution passes through the substrate and feeds the root zone. The resulting runoff drains into the collection trays underneath the grow bags. From there, the drainage pipe carries the water toward the pump. The pump removes the collected runoff and returns it toward the reservoir, creating a recirculating irrigation and drainage loop. Water goes in. The plants use what they need. Runoff is collected. The pump moves it away. And the system continues its cycle. It's a remarkably elegant setup when everything is working properly. And right now... It is working wonderfully. The plants are growing rapidly, their water demand is increasing, and the system is keeping irrigation consistent without requiring me to manually water four increasingly thirsty plants every day. That consistency is especially valuable in a project where we're deliberately trying to keep the four sisters under comparable conditions. It's another variable we can keep controlled while we watch the genetics express themselves. ──────────────────────── 🕸️ Managing the Canopy During the Stretch The SCROG has already done its main job. Now we're using the structure we've created to manage flowering growth. The canopy remains impressively even. There are no huge dominant towers completely taking over the room. Instead, the flowering sites are distributed across the surface we've spent weeks building. But the stretch is happening quickly. So we're continuing to watch the taller shoots and selectively using training and super cropping where necessary. This isn't about constantly manipulating the plant. It's about making small corrections before a branch becomes a major problem. A little intervention now can be much easier than trying to fix an overly dominant branch later. And Plant B has responded very well so far. She's stretching... But she's stretching into a structure. That's exactly what I wanted. ──────────────────────── 🌿 Plant B's Personality Is Still There This is one of my favourite things about Project Blue Tent. From above, the four sisters can look almost identical. Same tent. Same lights. Same irrigation. Same nutrients. Same environment. And yet... Spend enough time with them and their personalities start becoming obvious. Plant B remains one of the more naturally cooperative phenotypes. She's vigorous, but her structure remains usable. She's growing rapidly, but the canopy hasn't become chaotic. She's producing flowering sites quickly, while maintaining that beautiful green foliage we've been watching since vegetation. And now she's showing another characteristic: She doesn't seem particularly interested in slowing down. 😂🌱 Which, honestly, is a pretty good problem to have. ──────────────────────── 🌸 From Canopy to Flowers There is something incredibly satisfying about looking at Plant B now and remembering what she looked like only a few weeks ago. Back then, we were talking about: Topping. SCROG. Empty squares. Branch positioning. Defoliation. Canopy management. Now we're talking about: Flowering sites. Pistils. Stretch. Bud formation. And eventually... Bulk. That's the transition we've been working toward. The plant has moved from building the machine to using the machine. The canopy is the foundation. Now the flowers get to take over the story. ──────────────────────── 👀 Looking Ahead The next couple of weeks should be fascinating. All four sisters are moving incredibly quickly, and Plant B is right there with them. We'll continue managing the canopy as needed. We'll keep an eye on the stretch. Super cropping will remain one of the tools available when individual branches get too ambitious. The irrigation system will continue providing its consistent cycle. The flowering nutrition will continue supporting development. And the environmental conditions will remain under close observation. Most importantly... We don't need to panic about the speed. Yes, they're growing fast. Yes, I may have kept them in vegetation longer than usual. Yes, the warm nights aren't exactly helping us keep the stretch compact. But the plants are healthy. The canopy is remarkably even. The flowers are forming beautifully. And Plant B is looking absolutely fantastic. So... Let's see where this goes. 🌸💙 ──────────────────────── 💙 Thank You A huge thank you to Zamnesia for making Project Blue Tent possible and for giving us the opportunity to explore these Pickle Lemon Haze F1 genetics phenotype by phenotype. A heartfelt thank you to Plagron for the Premium Growbags and Hydro nutrient line supporting these girls throughout their journey and now through the beginning of flowering. A special thank you to Zamnesia for the Phytonaut LED lighting helping us create such a strong, even canopy and now providing the intensity we're using during the transition into flower. And a massive thank you to Mars Hydro for the automatic drip irrigation and drainage system. Watching the drippers, coco, runoff collection, drainage lines, pump and reservoir work together has been incredibly satisfying. The system has become an important part of keeping the entire room consistent. Thank you as well to GrowDiaries for providing a place where growers from around the world can document their journeys, exchange experiences and learn together. And finally... Thank you to everyone following Project Blue Tent. 💙 Plant B has officially entered flowering. She's stretching. She's building flowers. She's producing lush, beautiful growth. And she's making it very clear that seven weeks of vegetation gave her plenty of momentum. 😂🌱 For now, the canopy remains beautifully even. The flowers are developing quickly. The super cropping is helping us manage the most ambitious branches. The irrigation system is doing its job. The nutrition is supporting the transition. And Plant B... Well... She's simply shining. Four sisters. One environment. One experiment. And four plants that somehow manage to make every week more interesting. Let's see what the next chapter brings. Until next week... Growers Love, happy growing, and take care everyone! 🌱💙

Each one has such a unique smell and flower structure. I really neglected the hell our most of these plants given the tiny 3 gallon container and arid conditions - however these plants were resilient. Crystal Light x Pelee Sword stands out as gassy pungent strain covered in trichomes. (Purple Haze x Malawi) x pelee sword was also very note worthy. Very citrusy/floral notes, airy bud structure but surprisingly very resinous. Super stoked and thanks again DaDankSeed bank for the genetics and pointers!

she is doing well for the outdoor conditions in germany. she had her first week of sunshine. but we can't talk about fast here yet ;) the next few days will unfortunately be very rainy again. i switched from biobizz-grow to biobizz-fish for the fertiliser. she will continue to get root fertiliser from canna.

My choice to use soft touch stainless steel picture hanging wire as my LST ties is seeming to be a poor choice. the wire is not rigid enough making it make difficult to achieve the results I was looking for. Overall.. not super disappointed but I am working harder than I should be :p

🌱 Divine Seeds Week Three Veg Report 🌱 Hey, fellow growers! 🌿✨ Welcome back to our weekly update on the Divine Seeds journey. We’re now into Week Three of the vegetative stage, and our plants are loving their new environment. The Moon Rock, Opium, and Big Demon are thriving after the transplant, and we’re excited to share the latest developments. 🌟 Week Three Highlights 🌟 This week, we plugged in the Autopots and turned them on, letting gravity do its magic. From now on, we’ll rely on the Regulator and CaMg-Boost in the reservoir. Our soil is rich in organic matter and nutrients, so we’re testing if just the organic inputs in the soil, plus CaMg and Regulator, can sustain the entire run. Let’s dive into the details: 1. Moon Rock 🚀 • Growth: Vigorous vertical and lateral growth, with lush, broad leaves. • Health: The transplant has boosted its vigor, and the plant looks healthier than ever. • Notes: Moon Rock is showing exceptional adaptability and strength. 2.

It’s never a welcome guest, but it’s part of the growing journey, and it teaches you more than any perfect run ever could. It started small: a couple of darker spots noticed deep inside one of the colas. Upon closer inspection, we confirmed it — Botrytis cinerea, or as growers call it, bud rot. Thankfully, it was localized and quickly handled, removing all affected material carefully to avoid spreading spores. Despite how dramatic macro photos can make it look, the loss was minimal. The rest of the canopy remains healthy, strong, and radiant under the LEDs. The girls keep thriving like the true champions they are. ⸻ 🧠 Educational Spotlight – What Is Bud Rot (and What It Isn’t) Bud rot is a fungal infection caused by Botrytis cinerea. It thrives in warm, humid, stagnant environments — the kind of microclimate that can form in thick buds during late flower. It usually begins inside the bud, invisible at first, and works its way outward, leaving behind a grayish-brown, dusty rot that can ruin entire flowers if unnoticed. Early warning signs: • Brown or gray fuzz inside the cola • Dry, dead sugar leaves sticking out of healthy buds • A musty or “old hay” smell Prevention is everything: 🌬️ Keep strong airflow through and between plants 💨 Maintain active extraction and oscillating fans 🌡️ Lower humidity to 50% or below during late flower 🌗 Avoid large night/day temperature swings ✂️ Remove excess inner foliage (selective defoliation) For a deep dive into identifying, preventing, and treating bud rot, check out Zamnesia’s excellent guide: 🔗 Zamnesia – Bud Rot: The Cannabis Grower’s Guide - https://www.zamnesia.com/grow-weed/563-bud-rot-cannabis-grower-guide ⸻ 💬 Reflection – The Grower’s Responsibility Let’s be honest — this one’s on me. It’s a new setup, and with every new tent comes a new rhythm to learn. The temperatures are still higher than I’d like, and humidity sometimes pushes the edge. But that’s what growing is — progress through imperfection. The key is to act fast, learn faster, and never let one small setback derail the entire grow. The good news: both Super Silver Haze phenos continue to look absolutely stunning — symmetrical, resilient, and full of that legendary vigor that made this strain an icon. ⸻ 🌸 What to Expect Next As we move into Week 8, we’ll be: • Reducing humidity and increasing airflow • Keeping close watch on moisture and leaf density • Fine-tuning the TrolMaster environment controls • Allowing buds to fatten, harden, and mature into their final form We’re entering the critical ripening phase, where patience and precision make all the difference. ⸻ 🌾 Grower-to-Grower Corner – Preventing Bud Rot Since every grower faces this risk sooner or later, here are a few small habits that make a massive difference: 1. Prune with intent: Create small “air highways” between branches so moisture can escape. 2. Nighttime is key: Rot thrives in cool, humid nights. Keep fans on and air moving even when lights are off. 3. Monitor VPD: Around 1.2–1.4 kPa is ideal for mid-late flower; beyond 1.6 increases risk. 4. Inspect daily: Use your eyes and your nose — the first clue is often a smell, not a sight. 5. Clean the space: Mold spores can live in your tent, filters, and even fans. Sanitize between runs. Remember: Bud rot doesn’t mean failure; it means evolution. Every grow that survives it creates a smarter grower. ⸻ 💚 Closing Thoughts This week was a humbling reminder that even under the best light, nature still has the final say. But she also rewards those who pay attention, act fast, and grow with love. The Super Silver Haze continues to honor her legacy — strong, aromatic, and beautifully structured. Thank you to Zamnesia Seeds, Aptus Holland, Plagron, Future of Grow, ThinkGrow, and TrolMaster for helping make this journey what it is.

So after my 29th April update last week, I have only given ph’d water, I do have some nutrient burn but hoping that I can sort this out over the next few days, it’s my 1st issue I’ve had but my own doing due to giving too many nutrients as not reading properly. In a way am pleased because I won’t be making that mistake again. I did take a couple of huge fan leaves off that I considered “light blocking” on day 18 and she seems to have recovered well. Other than that it has been a good week.

germination 04/12 seeds in to the water 05/12 seeds between cotton beds 06/12 seeds with tails in to the rockwool 10/12 all seeds are up vegetation 11/12 day 1 veg 12/12 day 2 veg - 1.5l water with light nutrients, girls suck what they need and then back to box 15/12 day 4 veg - move to 60l oxypot, this week I will buy ec meter

This week went real great, 2 ogreberrys and Bruce banner got trimmed up an jarred ! We chopped the 3 other Ogreberrys on Sunday the 14th , they will hang out to dry for 14 days ! Stay tuned for next update! More trimming an weight an overall photos! Cheers to y’all 😶‍🌫️💨💨💨💨

She's doing well. Another week started in low humidity. The meter is on wet soil hence the high number which is inaccurate. Mostly 45-50%. Topped her on day 10 which turned out to be a FIM.

Welcome to week 12 of our STRAWBERRY NUGGETS! she is thickening out and stacking up! frosting like crazy and turning purple on the nugs she is absoloutly gorgeous. February 12, 2020 (DAY 81) - WHAT UPPPPP!!!! here we are folks another update. i honestly dont even know if she is almost ready or not, buds arent really fattening anymore lol, trics are all super milky. i think she is getting flushed starting this weekend. this will be the last feed then its onto that FLAWLESS FINISH by ADVANCED NUTRIENTS. hopefully im making the right choice......maybe another week wouldnt hurt....

7/4 SUN was poking out a little bit. Plants loved that little feeding and seen to he noticeable larger this morning. I'm considering starting the nutes. At least the organic ones as well as upping the water intake I've been scared to water with all this rain and my experience last time. I plan on applying BT this afternoon and doing some work on the bottoms of the plants. I also saw a chipmunk in my cage so I have some spots in my fence that need to be patched. I know I can't compare this year to orher years as these are seeds and all the other years were clones. I CAN say for certain that my plants are healthiest they've been out of any of my journals. Previous plants were much larger but I was fighting numerous fungal, pathogens and pests at the sane time. Ear wigs would've lollipopped most buddies by now but I've seen no sign of them. I'm going to apply more poison where they were and add some rat traps inside the cage for the chipmunks. Once I fix the cage I think I'll be good. UPDATE: Went back over and fixed the holes on my cage from high winds. I found an old wire trap or cage and just cut sections and ziptied them to the existing wire and to the structure thus covering any open holes. I'll need to put lathes aroubdvtge outside because if a rodent REALLY wanted in they could get in. My belt had been wearing thin but I use shit until it breaks (yesterday the heal came off my shoe lol) so I was working hard sweating my nuts off and my belt gives out totally. At least ive got the major stuff done. I took a few videos too. I'm imagining it was this little bit of sun that gave these plants that boost of growth but I'm wondering if the added nutes had anything to do with it. Bags weren't light and I could feel moisture in the soil so I didn't water. I'll check again tomorrow morning. Since I didn't see many plants or even leaves for that matter with damage I decided to hold off ob the BT and the plant doctor. Only time will tell if that was the right decision. 7/5 Plants look fantastic. I see a few more holes in leaves sporadically amd I'm hoping it's pillars. I've seen lots of lightning bugs on my camera though and grasshoppers are abundant. Not one growth shoot has been chewed (knock on wood) which is what the earwigs had always done. I watched a video from last year and by nowcthey had lollipopped all lower leaves. It may not be the best weather growing season wise but despite the rh consistently in the 90's I still don't have pm or fungal pathogens. Need to get the BT out. Didn't water as we've had all that rain. I'll water either tonight or tomorrow morning. Sunny high in the 90s low is 66. Tomorrow looks good too. UPDATE WENT BACK OVER AROUND FIVE. IT WAS 88 DEGREES SO I WANTED TO CHECK THE GROW BAGS. THE POTS ARE FINE. IT WAS HUMID AS HELL. ONE PLANT WAS SLIGHTLY DROOPY BUT VERY LIGHT AND DRY. I FOUND TWO OTHERS THAT SEEMED LIGHTER THAN THE REST BUT HADNT DROOPED. I MIXED TWO GALLONS OF WATER WITH 1TSP KANGOROOTS AMD PHED IT CLOSE TO 6. I FED THE 3 PLANTS THAT WERE SUPER DRY LIKE A HALF GALLON AND SPRED THE REST OVER THE OTHER EIGHT PLANTS. THEY WERENT DROOPING BUT THEY WERE VERY DRY. I PLAN ON A FULL WATER TOMORROW. I WOULDVE DONE IT TODAY IF THE TEMPS WERENT SO HIGH. ITS RAINED A MONTH STRAIGHT SO I HAVENT HAD TO WATER. I MADE A COUPLE VIDEOS BUT I'LL HAVE TO UPLOAD TOMORROW. 7/6 Another super hot day. I hefted the pots and they still had some weight but I could tell they were dry. This rain has messed up my watering schedule. Well it made it so I didn't NEED to water. These are big plants now. I need to get a schedule to stick too. They're going to probably need a gallon a piece at least. I'm still nervous watering. Right now I'm just reading the plants. I added .5tsp kelp me/you to 1 gallon of water to help with heat stress. I fed an additional two gallons to the garden this morning including the two container plants in the back. They were dry on top too but I know they have water deeper down. Next watering I'll be more consistent and try to give them there 10%. It's great having the bags elevated. I can finally see when I start getting run off. I could even measure the ph of it instead of relying on that meter. Ill check the ph when I go back over. Still a few 🐛 holes but they are few and far between. I really don't want to spray for such a small problem but if I cant find them at night that's what I'll do. UPDATE: Another 90 degree day. I went back over and gave the garden a gallon of water as they were dry and it didn't rain. Tried to use a soil ph meter to check ph. First couple were 6.4, 6.5 then I got 7.3 and I accidently dropped it. Then I got somethings that were high eights and even one 9! Obviously the Meter shit the bed. I'll lower the ph of the water slightly when I fully water tomorrow and I'm going to measure the runoff. 7/8 I must've messed up the journal again as the dates are off. GAVE PLANTS A FULL WATERING. Each girl got a gallon. I couldn't upload my videos this morning as I had to break up a fight. 3 on 1. Didn't give me a chance to put the videos up. I'll take some stills then I can upload them. I took stills and they all uploaded but didn't fucking save. I'm nit going to keep trying to upload if it's not going to. Noticed a few more holes in leaves and one skeletinized leaf so I need to either spray the bt or something more versatile. I'm putting more poison around the cage and de between the bags. I'll go check things out tonight. Sick of writing a book and uploading to just hace them disappear 7/9 Did a quick video today. Noticed the bags were fairly light despite the plants being soaked amd the pallets wet. I was pressed for time. I gave two gallons to the entire garden. I hope that will hold them over until tomorrow. I'll need to up how much water I give them. Going with a gallon and a half next time. I see more pillar spots and a moth took off when I shook the plants this morning. So I'm gonna have too apply the BT. I figure if I go over before dark tonight I might be able to see aju nocturnal insects around. Luckily my dad feeds the birds and they are always there. I think they help with pests. UPDATE IT WAS A LITTLE COOLER TODAY BUT MICH MORE HUMID. I WENT AROUND SIX TO MAKE SURE THE GIRLS WERE OK WITH WATER AND TO GIVE THEM A TREATMENT OF BT. I WENT THROUGH THE GARDEN ANDCGOUND THREE LEQVES TO DEFOLIATE AND LITERALLY A COUPLE LEAVES ON TWO PLANTS WITH PILLAR HILESM WHEN I ARRIVED TWO BIRDS FLEW OUT. A HORNET CAME IN WHILE I WAS THERE. THIS DO LESS APPROACH SEEMS TO BE REALLY WORKING. I DODNT SEE NEARLT ENOUGH DAMAGE TO WARRANT SPRAY8NG MY EXTREMELY HEALTHY GIROS WITH ANYTHING. ILL KEEP AN EYE ON THEM AND CLEAN THEM UP A BIT. I DO NEED TO INSTALL THE VERY8CAL TRELLIS FOR SUPPORT. THEYRE PRETTY HEALTHY THOUGH. ONE PLANT IS ABOUT AS WIDE AS IT IS TALL. STILL......PLANTS ARE EXPLODING AND ITS GETTING TIGHT IN THERE. I NEED TO GET THE TRELLIS UP THOUGH. 7/10 I went over and was planning to water. Plants were wet and it's raining. Top of the medium was moist but the bags were light. ONE bag was super light but seeing that we are having showers all day and an additional half inch of rain coming tonight so I didn't water them. Especially since they looked great. Decided to to spray BT yet as the damage is so small and i think the birds have been taking care of the pillars for me. Now I'm wondering if I should've gave that ONE plant a little bit of water but it will be find. Did a video. I'm being careful not to over water. Last year this is when all my buddies were devoured by earwigs. And no senescence like the years before. I think it was hust those earwigs. I haven't lost shot for leaves. Even the stalks are bright green and look amazing.
