Week 4 flower : everything’s looking nice still got the lights about 7-9” from top of canopy without any issues . The humidity has gone up to 50% in day and I can’t really get it any lower I’ve already got a dehumidifier so don’t want to get another one . I would like to lower to 40-45% and lower for last 2 weeks but can’t see that happening . I’ve started the pk from end of week 4 (day 28 )at 1ml per litre this took my ec to 2.2 I will see how it goes and maybe up it to 1.2-1.5 and I’m going to use the pk for 7-14 days then I will start the flush I also lowered the silicone to 0.5ml per litre 3x blue cheese plants are on the left but has spread over and 1x sunset sherbet on the right

She is doing great on the transplant! I really don’t like to transplant I would normally grow in straight to the end pot which I like to grown in 5 gallon pots. Temperature in tent is 79-75 during day drop to about 72-69 at night. The RH 62%.

One has a helmet hat gonna keep an eye out on her Update: Helmet hat came off 2/16 update: all 3 doing well

Frostbanger Plants 1-6 Week 8 May 18– 24 FLOWER 4 Nutrients : GH Micro 25 ml GH Gro 10 ml GH Bloom 30ml CalMag 30 ml Recharge 10ml Green sensation 16.5ml Power buds 7.5 ml 5/17 PH 6.3, PPM 1130, temp 71 1ltr each 5/18 PH 6.67, PPM 935, temp 68.5 1 ltr each 5/20 PH 6.67, PPM 1330, temp 68.5 2 ltr each 5/21 PH 6.66, PPM 984, temp 69 1 ltr each videos & pics 5/17 Defoliation of yellowing leaves, feed, pics As I mentioned last week, I must monitor and control the tent environment manually. For the past month, the humidifier has been an issue putting out way too much humidity; often leaving water in the bottom of the tent. In addition, the temperatures are also out of control. I added an AC last week to keep the temperature below 80. I finally determined the exhaust vent is also broken and has been for some time. AC Infinity does not extend the warranty to the replacement parts. I guess that makes sense since they would be in a state of perpetual free replacements. I bought a new one from Amazon that came with a new controller which is different from the controller 69 currently using. I decided that while it is very inconvenient and inefficient to monitor the tent through the day, I would rather finish this Frostbanger run without introducing a new unknown variable. I will continue using 3 circulating fans, the 4” exhaust vent from my 3x3. I have the AC pushing air in and the exhaust pulling air out. This creates a neutral pressure tent environment-neither positive nor negative. It looks like growth has stopped and plant height has been reached. Now is the time for buds to fatten and frost up. All 6 of them are short remaining less than 3 ft. They range from 15 to 31 inches. #4, 5 &6 are showing some fade, particularly #4. Upon opening the tent, a melon smell comes off the buds if I get close, and more stickiness was observed during the process of defoliation. They are living up to the new strain’s name. #5 is the frostiest followed by #2. Wow week 3 of flower and that much frost already. Before FastBuds announced the strain name and characteristics, I was disappointed that FBA2502 could be an indica sleepy strain but the universe provides what you need at the time. The new strain profile indicates a whopping 29%THC with mainly sativa uplifting, euphoric, social effects with sweet fruity flavors which I love and enjoy. In addition, I recently bought a dap press and this strain is frosty and resinous. She will be great to press for live rosin. FBA2502 is FROSTBANGER. Meet Frostbanger Auto, an autoflowering and Indica-leaning hybrid packing a staggeringly high THC content averaging 29%, making this one of the most potent strains on the market. It was created by Fast Buds through crossbreeding Gorilla Glue and Chemdawg, two equally iconic strains. Growers must know that these difficult-to-grow plants will pose specific challenges in terms of environmental control and nutrition, making them best suited for cultivators with some experience under their belt. The flowering cycle is short, averaging only 50 days, and yields are usually around 300g/m². The Frostbanger Auto flavor and aroma are both mouthwatering with a delightful combination of sweet, fruity, and flowery notes. The high is mainly Sativa-driven with uplifting and happiness-inducing effects that lead to euphoria and a general sense of well-being. You might feel sociable and talkative, but too spacey to say something. Following this surge of energy comes a deepening sense of relaxation, leaving you sedated and completely at ease with the world. Due to its potency and these long-lasting effects, medical patients hail Frostbanger Auto for treating chronic pain, stress, and even depression. Measurements: #1 15” #2 20” #3 17” #4 30” #5 31” #6 24” Your likes and comments are appreciated. Thanks for stopping by. Growers love 💚🌿 💫Natrona💫

A few days late with the update but the pics and recording is from day 42 of flower

The Gorilla Punch is still the smallest girl in the tent, but she’s really starting to show her potential this week.💪 She might not be big in size, but her structure looks great, healthy leaves, and a deep, dark green color that makes her stand out from the others.💚 She also got a light defoliation this week, just removing a few leaves that were covering lower budsites.🍃 Environment remains stable: Temp: 25–26 °C RH: 55–60 % PPFD: around 900–1000 µmol/m²/s under the Spider Farmer SE5000 Watering is on the same rhythm as the others, about 4 L every 3 days, RO water with CalMag as usual.💧 She’s small but healthy, compact, and starting to form some nice early flowers. Really curious how she’ll turn out, I have a feeling she’ll surprise me later on 😎✨

Mixing a ratio of 4ml start 5ml Katana / 1 litre water at PH of 6.2 Mix well and spray onto paper towels to soak, Fold paper towel in half & place seed inside & fold to cover so the seed is in darkness, Place damp paper towels with the seed inside a zip lock sandwich bag. I only had to wait 28 Hours and the seed had split She was planted into her 1st pot last night. Happy days, looks like a very good start 🏆 😵‍💫🤘🏼

🥒 Project Blue Tent – Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Plant A Week 3 – A Change of Direction Hello everyone, and welcome back to another week of Project Blue Tent! 💙🌱 This diary follows one individual Pickle Lemon Haze F1 from Zamnesia, grown completely independently from its siblings so we can appreciate each plant’s unique development from seed to harvest. The goal of this project remains the same: growing multiple genetics side by side under identical environmental conditions while documenting how each cultivar expresses itself. Every plant shares the same home, the same feeding schedule, the same lighting, and the same care, allowing genetics to tell their own story. This week certainly kept me busy. Just after the reservoir refill, a small irrigation incident turned into an unexpected flood inside the tent. Thankfully, because everything is built around the Zamnesia ecosystem, the water never escaped the tent itself. The tray contained every drop, preventing what could have become a much bigger disaster. After drying everything thoroughly, checking every dripper, and making sure the substrate was still in perfect condition, it was business as usual. The plants barely seemed to notice anything had happened. But while nature stayed calm… I decided to interfere. This week marked the beginning of this plant’s training journey with its very first topping. ⸻ Environment Conditions remained extremely stable throughout the week. • 🌡️ Day temperature: 27°C • 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C • 💧 Relative humidity: 67% • 🥥 Root zone temperature: 24°C • 💦 Nutrient solution: 18°C • ⚡ EC: 1.61 mS/cm • pH: 5.8 • 💨 CO₂: Ambient (~450 ppm) • ☀️ Light schedule: 18/6 Nutrient strength was increased slightly to match the plants’ accelerating vegetative growth. The Pickle Lemon Haze accepted the stronger feed without showing any signs of stress or nutrient burn, indicating that the roots are becoming well established inside the Plagron Premium Growbag. ⸻ The Genetics Continue to Impress One thing that immediately stands out with this phenotype is its beautiful structure. Internodal spacing remains compact while side branches continue to develop evenly. The stem has thickened considerably over the last few days, giving the entire plant a sturdy appearance despite its relatively young age. Like its neighbours in the tent, the foliage continues displaying that lighter shade of green I’ve been seeing across all four plants. Since every genetic is showing exactly the same coloration under identical feeding, environment and irrigation, I believe this is simply how these young plants are expressing themselves rather than indicating any nutritional issue. Growth remains vigorous, leaves are standing proudly toward the light, and fresh growth appears every single day. Exactly what we like to see. ⸻ Time to Top This week I made the decision to top this plant. Unlike low-stress training, topping intentionally removes the plant’s primary growing tip. By doing so, apical dominance is interrupted and the plant redirects its energy into the lateral branches. Instead of producing one dominant central cola, the plant now has the opportunity to develop two equally vigorous main leaders, creating a much wider and more balanced canopy later in life. The cut itself was clean, quick, and performed above the selected node, leaving healthy growth tips ready to take over. Now comes the important part. Topping isn’t about what happens immediately after making the cut. It’s about what happens over the following week. Over the next several days I’ll be watching carefully to see how quickly both new tops begin accelerating. If everything continues as expected, those two branches should soon become the new leaders while the lower side branches also receive increased hormonal signals, creating a much bushier structure. For a project like this—where every plant is documented individually—it’s always fascinating to compare topped plants with untouched ones grown under identical conditions. Sometimes the smallest decisions create the biggest differences by harvest day. ⸻ Recovery The best part? The plant barely reacted. Within a short period, fresh growth had already resumed, and the remaining foliage stayed perfectly turgid without drooping or showing signs of stress. Healthy roots, stable environmental conditions, and consistent irrigation make all the difference when performing high-stress techniques like topping. A healthy plant recovers remarkably quickly. ⸻ Looking Ahead Next week should be exciting. I’ll be watching for the formation of the two new dominant tops while continuing gentle canopy management if necessary. As vegetative growth accelerates, the structure created by this topping will begin revealing itself. This is one of my favourite moments in the grow—watching a plant completely change its architecture after a single cut. The foundation is now in place. Everything from here will build upon it. ⸻ Final Thoughts Despite an unexpected flood inside the tent, this week turned into another successful chapter. The environmental parameters remained stable, nutrient uptake continued improving, the plant accepted the stronger feeding schedule without hesitation, and the first topping was completed successfully. Every week these genetics continue giving me more confidence, and I honestly can’t wait to see how this Pickle Lemon Haze F1 develops once both new leaders begin stretching toward the light. The adventure is only getting started. Thank you all so much for following along. Your support, comments, advice, and encouragement make documenting these grows even more rewarding. I truly hope these weekly updates help other growers learn something new while enjoying the journey with me. A huge thank you goes to Zamnesia for the incredible genetics and the complete ecosystem, Plagron for keeping these ladies perfectly fed in coco, and everyone following this diary from around the world. Growers Love and see you all next week! 💚🌱 ⸻ P.S. One final shout-out has to go to the Zamnesia ecosystem itself. As dramatic as the flood looked at first, the Zamnesia tent tray proved exactly why it’s part of the setup. Every drop of water remained safely contained inside the tent, with absolutely nothing leaking onto the floor. What could have turned into a much bigger mess ended up being nothing more than drying the tray, fixing the issue, and carrying on with the grow. Moments like these remind us that great equipment isn’t just about making life easier on the good days—it’s about saving the day when something unexpected happens. Huge thanks to Zamnesia for designing an ecosystem that’s ready for real-world growing. 💙🌱

Okay, that's it, I couldn't watch her suffering like that anymore. Her trichomes could've gone a little longer, but her overall appearance clearly was over it. The lack of aroma and stickiness from the trichomes worries me, but I do know how much she struggled during flower and that the nutrient availability in the soil was off, so I'm not really surprised. I've downgraded my expectations for the end result quite a bit over the last couple of weeks to a more realistic level considering the circumstances. For drying I'm trying something new - I've got a wine chiller, a poor man's Cannatrol, that I want to keep the temps low during drying in summer and for curing and storing in general. Curious to see what effect this has on the dried buds.

🌸 Week 4 Flower Report: Growth, Challenges & Big Changes! 🌸 Hey, Grow Diaries Fam! ✨ We’re here at Week 4 of Flower, and what a week it’s been—packed with challenges, adjustments, and exciting progress! Before diving into the details, let’s start with a note on my flowering timeline. While this is Week 4, I don’t start counting flower days the moment I flip to 12/12. Instead, I wait for the plants to show true signs of bloom. It’s a small but significant distinction that keeps things accurate and aligned with the plants’ development. 🌱 Defoliation: Timing is Everything! Defoliation is a critical part of the flowering stage, and I typically wait until Day 21. However, this week, I tackled it earlier on Day 17 because: 1️⃣ The room was simply too full. 2️⃣ And most importantly—the Papaya Zoap had other plans! She’s a fighter—determined, defiant, and constantly reaching for the moon. Despite intense training like super cropping, she’s still pushing upward, nearly outpacing the LED lights. Challenges like this remind us of a simple truth: gardening mirrors life. It’s about resilience, adaptation, and unwavering determination. 💪 This week, I added a second SCROG layer. While this net will support the flowering colas, it’s also there to strategically manage the Papaya Zoap. Why? Because experience has taught me that if she grows out of the LED’s range, she won’t finish properly—and that could disrupt the balance for every other plant in the tent. It’s all about teamwork, even in the garden. 🌟 Defoliation was intense, removing nearly all the leaves with stems to clear space and boost airflow. The tent now looks dramatically different! For the full before-and-after transformation, be sure to check out my YouTube channel—trust me, you’ll want to see this process up close! 🎥✨ Switching to Aptus Holland Minerals A major milestone this week: I’ve transitioned entirely to Aptus Holland Minerals. 🌊 From now on, it’s just minerals—no more organic inputs. This marks the start of a new chapter, and I’m incredibly curious to see how the plants react to these changes. Here’s the current nutrient mix: • System Clean: 0.5 ml/L • Regulator: 0.15 ml/L • RO Water Conditioner: 0.8 ml/L • All-in-One Liquid: 2.1 ml/L I’m keeping the pH at 6.1 and TDS at 556 ppm, and so far, the plants are thriving. This week also included a thorough system clean, ensuring everything runs smoothly as we enter the final flowering stages. 🌿 Bud Development: Pure Magic! The bud formation across all the genetics is nothing short of incredible. Every plant is thriving, and the canopy is lush, vibrant, and full of potential. I’ve raised the PPFD to 750 for this stage, with temps steady at 25°C and RH at 63%—keeping the VPD dialed in at 1.11. The TrolMaster ecosystem, paired with the AutoPots, makes managing these precise conditions seamless. With more time to focus on the plants, I can give them the daily care they deserve. 💚 Shoutouts & Gratitude A huge thank you to my sponsors and supporters: TrolMaster, Aptus Holland, Pro-Mix, Cannakan, and the amazing seed banks. Your incredible products and technology make this journey possible. 🌟 To the Grow Diaries community and all my followers—thank you for your energy, love, and even the challenges from the haters. It all fuels this incredible process, and I apprecilove every bit of it. Special shoutout to Brother Daggadna—check him out on Instagram and show some love! 💚 The plants are heading into the next phase of bloom, and I can’t wait to share how this story unfolds. 🌸✨ As always, stay tuned, stay positive, and let’s keep growing strong together! 🙌 Growers’ love to all 💚 #TrolMaster #AptusHolland #GrowLife #CannabisCommunity #FlowerWeek4 #NeverGiveUp #GrowWithLove #IndoorHorticulture #Defoliation #PPFD #ControlledEnvironment #SCROGNet #DogDoctorOfficial Discount Codes so you can save big on your next check out 💚💚💚 Kannabia - DOGDOCTOR 30% off SeedsmanSeeds - DOGDOCTOR 10% off CannaKan- DOGDOCTOR 15% off terpyz.eu - DOCTOR 15% off The Neutralizer - PORKIT5-DOG 15% off As always thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all , this journey of mine wold just not be the same without you guys, the love and support is very much appreciated and i fell honored and so joyful with you all in my life 🙏
 With true love comes happiness 💚🙏 Always believe in your self and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart , be a giver and the universe will give back to you in ways you could not even imagine so 💚 Friendly reminder all you see here is pure research and for educational purposes only Growers Love to you all 💚💚💚 P.S. – A Deep Dive into the ICL-300: Revolutionizing Under-Canopy Lighting The ICL-300 isn’t just another LED—it’s a game-changer for under-canopy lighting. Unlike traditional LED systems that project light in a single direction, the ICL-300’s 300-degree design ensures even light distribution beneath the canopy. 🌟 This unique feature means that no part of your plant is left in shadow, creating a balanced environment for lower buds to thrive. Key Tech Specs & Benefits: • 300-Degree Light Distribution: This design fills the under-canopy space with optimal light, enhancing photosynthesis where it often gets neglected. 🌱 • Full Spectrum Output: Tailored to meet the specific needs of plants at every stage, ensuring quality growth from base to apex. • Energy Efficiency: Advanced LED technology delivers maximum output with minimal energy usage, keeping costs down and sustainability up. 💡 • Durability & Heat Management: Built with high-quality materials, the ICL-300 stays cool and reliable, even in intense growing environments. Why It Matters: Under-canopy lighting is a game-changer for growers aiming to maximize yield and quality. Typically, lower buds receive less light, resulting in larfy or underdeveloped flowers. The ICL-300 changes that dynamic entirely by turning shadows into opportunity. 🌟 With light evenly dispersed across the entire plant, you’re not just growing; you’re sculpting a masterpiece. For me, the ICL-300 is more than a tool—it’s a partner in innovation. It ensures that every plant in my grow room has equal opportunity to shine, from the top colas to the smallest buds at the base. When paired with a carefully managed ecosystem, like the one powered by TrolMaster, the potential for consistent, top-quality harvests reaches new heights. This isn’t just about adding light—it’s about adding value, efficiency, and balance to the grow process. I’m beyond excited to see how the ICL-300 transforms the game in my tent, and I can’t wait to share the results with you all! 💚

Stanno benissimo e in salute, gia si vedono i primi prefiori, e si inizia a sentire un odorino inconfondibile, adesso manca solo una bella defogliata e via fino alla fine!! Cmq mister funkyo top! Talee troppo belle!!! Sicuramente anche il risultato finale sarà top!!

Update to come shortly💪💪🔥

Another slow week. I increased light schedule to 13/11. I’m going to slowly lower the time of light until by the time harvest day comes it’ll have a longer dark period. I’m also going to stop feeding the bottle nutrients my soil is moist still so I gotta wait. I’m predicting a couple ounces this grow.

70 days:) I haven't seen her this week:( the photos and video were taken by my friend, it's been very hot all week, 35°, I'll be back to her in a few days ;) then I'll be able to assess how she's doing, good luck to everyone,

This week I noticed a decent increase in height and I figured I should get LST started. I wanted to wait to transplant my ladies, but due to covid, my supply of soil is not here yet, and I can’t fill my 10 gallon pots for the transplant. I looked up online and people said you should be able to transplant the plant successfully by cutting the ties and ensuring you just don’t disturb the roots / medium. I went ahead and got started with LST and I accidentally snapped one of my plants main stems during the process. I mean literally snapped, could see the hollow centres, hanging by a thread of fibre. *so heart broke * I had read online e you can repair it with duct tape and that aloe Vera helps. I did not have duct tape handy but I got some aloe and used the ducting tape that came with my exhaust fan to try to secure it. Fingers crossed it’ll heal If I had some root stimulant I would’ve tried planting it but I don’t have any. I was wondering could that be a form of super cropping? Do you think it’ll just be like a really brutal attempt at topping the plant? Very curious about everyone else’s thoughts on this Pics are attached. Aside from that one my LST went well from what I can tell. I did not train my blue dream out of fear of wrecking my one plant of that strain. I also did not LST one of my mystery caramel due to the stem feeling the same as the one that snapped. The rest I tied down and attached photos can you guys tell me if it looks like I did it correctly ? Would love some feed back. All in all I feel like we are kicking off the week strong. Good growing to everyone
