Flip date: September 12 Today: Day 29 after flip, entering Week 5 Plants: 2 Cinderella Purple + 1 Purple Afghan Kush Day 21 (Oct 2): Major defoliation of CP #1 Day 27 (Oct 8): Flushed all 3 plants due to runoff EC ~2.0 Environment: 24–26°C lights on, 47–59% RH CP #1 is currently leading in growth and flower development compared to CP #2 and PAK. She’s progressing faster, showing more advanced flowering, and responding well to the training and defoliation. Each plant has its own phenotype and pace, so the goal is to maintain consistency and monitor each one individually. Different speeds, same goal—healthy growth and quality flowers. 💪🌿

She seems happy. It’s been another good week of growth. I’m cutting out the bio-grow completely for next week. I might give her some later in the grow if she looks like she needs it. Also, I’m gonna dial back the bio-bloom back to 2ml/L. Her buds are increasing in size and the smell is getting stronger. I feel like I might be about a week behind in terms of flower due to the stress from such heavy defoliation and losing most of her fan leaves, but overall I’m happy with how she’s coming along. Thank you for the likes and support 🙌 Have a good week growers 🍻💥

Hey now, hope everyone is having a great weekend and staying safe. Another great week for the ladies, as they are now about 3 weeks into flower, and the stretch has just finished. I am still feeding them silica, cal mag, and flower nutrients maxi bloom by GHE. I did start to add a PK booster this week pushing the EC up to 1.4. I also will be switched the light from V1 to the F1 Spectrum at the beginning of this week, and will be integrating the UV/IR bar into the light cycle later this week. I will run the UV/IR bar for approximately 30 minutes prior to lights off to get started. The tallest plants are the Sundae Driver and the Durban Nights at 42" and the Red Hot Cookies is the shortest plant at 38" however they all look happy and healthy and capable of easily giving up a half pound each. The 5X5 is really starting to fill up nicely, I am running two dehumidifiers outside of the tent and I am able to maintain around 50% RH in the tent during lights on, and around 55% RH with lights off. We did get an unexpected heat wave this weekend and it has been a struggle keeping the heat and humidity down but the flowers are just starting so no need to worry about mold or anything like that yet. As soon as this heat wave is over the temps should be good to go the rest of the way this is by far the best time of year to be flowering plants in my region. I did defoliate twice this week and I may do one or two more rounds before just letting them do their thing. Not much to do from here on out except make sure the reservoir is full and the PH is in the proper range. I hope everyone has a great weekend, Thanks for stopping by, Stay Safe and Blaze On!!! 💪 Website: https://medicgrow.com/ https://growdiaries.com/grower/medicgrowled

SUNDAY 5/5: Rearranged the gardens..have 17 plants in the 4 x 5 now...yowsa! MONDAY: Plucked some dead leaves and did a trichrome check on the furthest along. TUESDAY: I observed some white spots on a few leaves here and there throughout the garden, so I sprayed them today with Trifecta Crop Cure, a concoction of a bunch of natural plant oils. I already decreased the humidity in the room to 45% with my new 70L dehumidifier, so I think they'll be fine. I'll spray them again tomorrow and the next day, then I'll have to hope that did the trick, because several plants are already in the harvest window.

Not much to update. Seen first set of pistols on top two nodes. Branches have definitely started their stretch, still early but might not grow that tall. Hoping for bulky 🤞🏾🤞🏾. Seeing what I believe is phosphorus deficiency could be needing flower feed but could just be wanting more, this is last feed of cal mag + week 3 foxfarm nutrients @50% dose. Going to switch to flower nutes @75% Temp 69.1-82.1•F RH 40-51%

20.05. I don't have anything special to write, today is the end of her third week, she hasn't made any special progress, the weather is constantly bad... today was a nice day and I took them outside to sunbathe after a long time, from tomorrow everything will be as usual, for the next week only rain, the temperatures won't be as low as before, but it won't be satisfactory either, during the day it will be okay, but again with a little sun... Stay high!

I said!! it's huge ready for flowering!! one week to change the light schedule to 12/12 I've already lost count of the toppings I've made. I will always take some of the bottom leaves out. that no longer catch light and only waste energy. I water every two days. small quantities and One feeding per week. I make adjustments whenever necessary. I also don't spend a lot of nuts as long as she doesn't really need food as in flowering. you will realize soon

💙 Project Blue Tent – Week 11 🥒 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Pheno A 🌸 When The Best Intervention Is No Intervention Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of Project Blue Tent! 💙🌱 And honestly... I think this might be one of my favourite stages of the whole project. Not because we're doing more. Quite the opposite. Because we're finally at the point where we don't need to. 😂 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 Pheno A is looking absolutely beautiful. The structure is established. The canopy is open. The second SCROG is doing its job. The irrigation is running beautifully. The drainage system is working flawlessly. The nutrition is consistent. The under-canopy lighting is now part of the equation. And the flowers? Oh my God... The frost levels across this tent are something else. 🌸❄️ So this week isn't about another big intervention. It's about observation. It's about appreciating what we've built. And most importantly... it's about letting this beautiful girl do what she knows how to do. Grow. Flower. And shine. 💙🥒🌸 🌸 WEEK 11 – THE GIRL IS JUST DOING HER THING Pickle Lemon Haze F1 Pheno A is still sitting at approximately 145 cm. The stretch has settled. The structure is established. And now we're watching the flowers develop across the entire plant. One of the things that continues to impress me is just how even everything looks. The flowering sites are developing remarkably consistently. The canopy is extremely even. The bud formation is happening at very similar stages throughout the plant. And the frost... well... the frost is absolutely beautiful. 😂❄️🌸 This is one of those moments where you walk into the tent and think: "Okay... I really like what I'm seeing." And honestly, that's exactly where I want to be at this stage. The major work has already been done. Now the plant is showing us the result. 💡 THE UNDER-CANOPY LIGHTING GETS SERIOUS Last week we introduced the first LumiFlora under-canopy light into the project. This week, we decided to bring a second one into the game. And looking at the size and density of this room... it just made sense. The main LEDs continue providing the primary light from above. But these plants have developed a very substantial structure. There are flowering sites throughout the middle and lower portions of the canopy that naturally receive less direct light from the fixtures above. So instead of continuing to remove more foliage just to chase light penetration... we're bringing supplemental light to the lower canopy. And I really like what we've created. But we didn't simply place the two bars side by side. That would have been too easy. 😂 Instead, we decided to play a little. The LumiFlora bars are approximately 1.20 metres long, with the central section around one metre, and because of that length we were able to arrange them in an X-cross configuration underneath the canopy. From corner to corner. And honestly? It looks fantastic. 😂💡🌱 It's functional... but it also looks really cool. The two bars cross through the lower portion of the tent, creating a much more interesting distribution of supplemental light underneath the plants. The idea remains simple: Don't replace the overhead lighting. Complement it. Give the lower canopy another source of usable light. And then... watch what happens. 🌿 TWO LIGHTS. ONE EXPERIMENT. This is one of the parts of Project Blue Tent that I really enjoy. We're not simply installing equipment because it looks impressive. We're introducing something because we have a reason for it. The plants have become tall. The canopy has become substantial. The lower portions naturally receive less direct light. So instead of fighting the structure... we adapt the environment around it. That's cultivation. Observe. Adapt. Measure. And then observe again. And now that the second under-canopy light is installed... I'm extremely curious to see what the lower flowering sites do with that additional light over the coming weeks. That's the experiment. And Pheno A gets to be part of it. 🕸️ THE SCROG IS DOING EXACTLY WHAT WE WANT The SCROG structure is also looking fantastic. The first net helped us build and distribute the canopy. The second SCROG is now providing additional support as the flowering branches continue developing. And at this point? We're not really touching it. That's intentional. The structure has been created. The branches are where we want them. The flowering sites are developing. And the support is there. Now we let the plant use it. This is another one of those moments where doing less can actually be doing more. We don't need to constantly move branches. We don't need to keep pulling everything around. We don't need to keep opening something we've already opened. The architecture is there. Let her work. ✂️ DEFOlIATION – NOW WE WATCH THE RECOVERY The major defoliation from the previous weeks has also become part of the story now. When we performed that work, the difference was dramatic. The plants went from extremely dense to much more open. And now we're seeing the result. The flowering sites are much easier to see. Air movement through the plant is much better. The branches are easier to follow. And the plant has had time to recover and redirect her energy toward continued flowering. This is exactly why I don't believe in constantly interfering with a plant. There is a time to train. There is a time to defoliate. There is a time to support. And there is a time to stop touching things. We're at that last one now. 😂 The plant doesn't need us to keep proving that we have scissors. She needs stability. So stability is what she gets. 🌬️ AIRFLOW – TWO LEVELS, ONE HEALTHY CANOPY The airflow setup is also continuing exactly as planned. We have movement through the upper portion of the canopy and additional circulation underneath. With the under-canopy lighting now running through the lower structure, maintaining good air movement down there becomes even more important. The goal isn't to create a hurricane. 😂 It's about avoiding stagnant pockets and keeping air moving through the entire plant structure. The canopy has opened beautifully. The flowers are developing. The lower lighting is now active. And the air is moving. That's exactly what I want to see. 💧 IRRIGATION & DRAINAGE – ZERO COMPLAINTS And I have to give some love to the irrigation and drainage system this week. Because honestly... there is nothing to complain about. 😂 The irrigation is working beautifully. The plants are drinking well. The water distribution is consistent. The drainage system is working absolutely spotless. No drama. No complaints. Just doing its job. And that's exactly what good equipment should do. It should quietly do its job while we concentrate on the plants. The girls are drinking. They're developing. And the system is keeping up with them perfectly. I'm extremely happy with how this part of the project is performing. ⚗️ NUTRITION – SAME RECIPE, DIFFERENT EC Interestingly, despite not changing the reservoir recipe, this week's EC came out slightly lower. And honestly... I don't have a definitive explanation for it. 😂 The recipe itself hasn't changed. We're still running: PLAGRON Hydro A — 2.2 ml/L PLAGRON Hydro B — 2.2 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 pH adjusted as required Yet the measured EC came out around 2.24 mS/cm instead of the approximately 2.49 mS/cm we saw previously. My guess? Possibly the rainwater source was simply a little softer this time. But I'm not going to pretend I know exactly why. Sometimes the numbers simply move. 😂 And that's another reason I like documenting everything. We don't have to invent an explanation every time something changes. We record it. We observe the plants. And we continue watching. The important thing is that Pheno A looks happy. She's drinking. She's flowering. She's building. And visually... she's absolutely loving life. ❄️ THE FROST LEVELS ARE INSANE Now let's talk about the obvious. The frost. 😂❄️ Seriously... look at these flowers. The amount of visible trichome development across the tent is absolutely beautiful. And Pheno A is certainly not being shy about showing hers. The flowers are developing with a heavy, frosty appearance, and the sugar leaves are absolutely covered. This is one of those stages where photography becomes dangerous. Because every time I take a close-up... I end up staring at it for five minutes. 😂📸 The flower formation is progressing beautifully. The structure is becoming more defined. And the frost levels are getting better and better. We're still not at the finish line. But we're getting into that really exciting part of the journey where the flowers begin looking less like early flowering sites... and more like proper flowers. And I absolutely love it. 🌿 SAME TENT. SAME CONDITIONS. REMARKABLY SIMILAR PLANTS. This is probably one of the most fascinating parts of the entire experiment. All four girls are sharing the same tent. Same reservoir. Same irrigation. Same lighting. Same environmental conditions. Same nutrition. Same cultivation approach. And when you look at them... it's honestly incredible how similar they are becoming. Very similar canopy development. Very similar flowering stages. Very similar bud formation. Very similar frost levels. And yet... each plant still has her own personality. That is what makes this project so interesting. We're not comparing four completely isolated grows. We're watching different cultivars experience essentially the same environment. And the response is fascinating. A LITTLE CULTIVAR LESSON And since we're documenting this properly, I want to take a little moment to explain something I often mention in these diaries. I like using the word: "Cultivar." You'll sometimes hear people call every plant a "genetic" or simply say "the genetics." And I understand what they mean. But technically, they're not quite the same thing. Genetics refers to the genetic makeup and inherited characteristics of an organism. A cultivar is a plant variety that has been selected and maintained through cultivation for particular characteristics. So when we're talking about these F1 plants in this project, I prefer referring to them as cultivars rather than simply calling them "genetics." And honestly... if you already knew that? Fantastic. If you didn't? Now you do. 😂🌱 There's never too much information when we're talking about cultivation. I love learning. And if something we mention here teaches somebody something new, even better. That's another reason I enjoy documenting these projects. We're growing plants... but we're also learning from them. 🌸 PHENO A – HER OWN PERSONALITY And although the four plants are looking remarkably similar right now, Pickle Lemon Haze Pheno A still has her own story. She's been through the stretch. She's been through the major canopy management. She's been through the defoliation. She's been through the SCROG. She's been through the structural adjustments. And now she's simply showing us what all of that work has created. Her canopy is beautifully organized. The flowering sites are developing evenly. The frost is impressive. And the plant is drinking beautifully. She's not asking for another intervention. She's asking for time. So that's what we're giving her. 🌸 THE TOPPING AND CANOPY STRUCTURE Looking closely at Pheno A, one of the things I really enjoy is seeing how well the topping and training have opened the plant. The structure is no longer fighting itself. The branches have space. The flowering sites are exposed. And the canopy has developed into a very even structure. The work we did earlier in the project is now becoming visible in the flowering architecture. This is the part of cultivation that makes all the earlier work worthwhile. You train a plant weeks ago... and then later you stand there looking at the flowering structure and realize: "That's why we did it." 😂🌱 And Pheno A is showing that beautifully. 💙 NO UNNECESSARY INTERVENTION So what are we actually doing this week? Honestly? Not much. 😂 And that's a good thing. We're monitoring. We're checking the environment. We're watching irrigation. We're checking drainage. We're watching the flowers. We're watching the frost. We're observing the response to the under-canopy lighting. We're maintaining the reservoir. And we're letting the plant do the rest. There's a temptation in cultivation to always do something. Change something. Adjust something. Move something. Cut something. Add something. But sometimes the best decision is: Don't. If everything is working... don't fix it. If the plant is healthy... let her be healthy. If the flowers are developing... let them develop. If the irrigation is working... let it work. If the drainage is spotless... leave it alone. 😂💙 Observation is also part of cultivation. 🌡️ CURRENT BLUE TENT CONDITIONS 🌸 Flowering: Week 11 📏 Height: approximately 145 cm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 ☀️ Day temperature: 28°C 🌙 Night temperature: 27°C 💧 Relative humidity: 63% ⚗️ pH: 6.01 ⚡ EC: approximately 2.24 mS/cm 🌡️ Solution temperature: 24.9°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: 24°C 💨 CO₂: approximately 666 ppm ? Pot size: 8 L 💦 Watering: approximately 1.6 L per plant / 24h 💡 Under-canopy lighting: LumiFlora 150W full-spectrum fixtures 💡 Under-canopy arrangement: X-cross configuration 🔬 SAME VARIABLES. DIFFERENT EXPRESSIONS. One of the things I'm really looking forward to over the coming weeks is seeing whether these similarities continue. Because right now... it's impressive. The plants are developing at remarkably similar stages. The canopy is extremely even. The flowers are forming beautifully. The frost levels are high. And yet, if you look closely enough, each cultivar still gives you little details that make her recognizable. That's exactly what we wanted from Project Blue Tent. A shared environment. A consistent approach. And individual plants telling their own stories. 🔭 LOOKING AHEAD – LET'S SEE WHAT THE FUTURE HAS FOR US At this point, I'm genuinely excited to see where these girls take us. We've built the structure. We've managed the canopy. We've supported the branches. We've established the airflow. We've got the irrigation and drainage working beautifully. The under-canopy lighting is now in place. The nutrition is consistent. And the flowers are developing incredibly well. Now... we wait. How much more will these flowers swell? How much further will the frost develop? How will the lower canopy respond to the supplemental lighting? How much weight will those supported branches eventually carry? And most importantly... what will Pickle Lemon Haze Pheno A ultimately become? Those are questions I don't need to answer today. The plants will answer them for us. And that's the beautiful part. 💙 FINAL THOUGHTS – LET THE PLANT SPEAK Week 11. And what a beautiful week. There were no dramatic interventions. No major restructuring. No big defoliation. No desperate attempts to control the plants. Instead... we watched. We introduced a second LumiFlora under-canopy light. We arranged the two long bars in an X-cross configuration underneath the canopy. We kept the irrigation running. We kept the drainage running. We maintained the same reservoir recipe. We observed the slightly lower EC. We kept the airflow moving. And we admired the flowers. 😂💙 And those flowers deserve some attention. The bud formation is beautiful. The canopy is incredibly even. The frost levels are absolutely insane. And Pheno A is looking healthier and happier by the week. What's perhaps most impressive is how similar these plants are becoming under the same conditions. Different cultivars... same room... same environment... same reservoir... and remarkably similar results. That makes me even more curious about what we're going to see later in flowering. Because if this level of consistency continues... we could be looking at something very special. But we're not going to rush it. We're not going to force it. We're not going to keep changing things simply because we can. We've reached the stage where patience becomes the most important tool in the room. So for now... we watch. We listen. We measure. We maintain. And we let Pickle Lemon Haze F1 Pheno A do what she does best. Grow. Flower. Frost up. And shine. 💙🥒❄️🌸 The future is looking very, very interesting. Let's see what this beautiful girl has waiting for us. 🙏 A HUGE THANK YOU A huge thank you once again to Zamnesia for making Project Blue Tent possible and for giving us the opportunity to explore these beautiful Pickle Lemon Haze F1 cultivars individually. Thank you to PLAGRON for the Hydro nutrient line supporting these vigorous girls throughout their flowering journey. A massive thank you to Zamnesia for the Phytonaut LED lighting, curved scissors and clip fans that continue playing such important roles inside this project. Thank you to Mars Hydro for the irrigation and drainage system that continues working flawlessly and keeping these girls consistently supplied. And a special thank you to LumiFlora for the under-canopy lighting we're now using as another part of this experiment. We're very curious to see how these supplemental lights influence the lower portions of the canopy as flowering progresses. And of course... thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us this platform to document everything. The successes. The mistakes. The experiments. The surprises. And all the little lessons along the way. And finally... thank you to everyone following Project Blue Tent. 💙 Four plants. One tent. Shared conditions. Shared reservoir. Shared environment. And somehow... four individual personalities developing right in front of us. Pickle Lemon Haze F1 Pheno A is looking absolutely beautiful. The frost is there. The flowers are forming. The canopy is even. The irrigation is working. The drainage is spotless. The lighting is in place. And now... we let her shine. Until next week... Keep growing. Keep learning. Keep observing. And most importantly... keep shining, beautiful girl. 💙🥒🌸❄️ Growers Love, happy growing, and take care everyone! 🌱💙

Gorilla Jealousy F1 is growing good. I had a little issue with the light not strong enough, and she got a bit top heavy. That is fixed now, and she has gotten a lot stronger. I did top her today and removed the first node growth. She is ready to go for another week.

Ya estamos en proceso de formación de la flor. Se ven algunas más grandes que otras. Pero a grandes rasgos estan muy parejas. Me preocupa un poco la cercanía a la luz, dado que estoy en 15cm y cualquier estirón extra, sería una complicación. Vamos a ir viendo como se dan las cosas, pero al momento, no me puedo quejar. Las plantas se ven bien y saludables. Día 24. Se empieza a notar el engorde. Esperando a que aparezcan las hojas de azúcar, que ya se empiezan a visibilizar las primeras. Voy a ver si puedo conseguir overdrive de advanced para cuando se terminen de formar las flores. Entre tanto solamente tuve un inconveniente de pérdida de agua por una manguera que moví al atar las plantas, pero ya repuse la solución perdida y todo va encaminado. No sé si van a tardar las 6 semanas que dice el catálogo, pero cuanto mucho serán 8. Seguiré actualizando. Día 26. Las flores empiezan a yomar su forma voluminosa. Estoy en duda sobre si agregar PK la semana próxima o la otra. Quizá empiece a usarlo en el próximo depósito. No quiero tampoco sobrepasarlas y agregar el producto antes porque tengo entendido que puede ser contraproducente. De todos modos me quedan dos días para el cambio de solución, así que voy a ver cuando termine la semana. Entre tanto, ya empiezan las emociones. Día 28. Hice ina poda de hojas bien fuerte. Ya de esa forma dejo expuesto a la luz todo lo que tiene que terminar de engordar y de paso me esquivo posibles problemas de humedad. Al final voy a usar el PK de greenhouse que tengo, pero voy a subir la dosis. Mañana se viene el cambio de solución, para lo que sería la ante última semana en teoría. Vamos a ver como evoluciona, porque los cambios son muy abruptos de una semana a la otra. Y llegado el momento miraré los tricomas, como para ir haciéndome a la idea.

The overall grow was very easy and no issues! I will grow this strain again in the future! My biggest recommendation with this plant is to top it even though it’s an auto I topped it and I did lst! Both were needed to get the results that I got with floraflex! If you know it’s gonna be a tall strain based off the breeder info and you know the genetics are good then top it and lst!!!

Die Blüten haben deutlich an Volumen gewonnen. An fast allen Pflanzen werden die ersten unteren Segelblätter gelb. So lange es bei diesen bleibt, werde ich nicht die Düngermenge erhöhen. Ich warte bis sie fast selbstständig abfallen und nehme sie weg. Leider ist das Wetter nicht auf unserer Seite. Da geht bestimmt noch mehr. Ein paar Wochen haben sie noch. Zum Ende der Woche hat der Wasserbedarf deutlich abgenommen. An dem Punkt habe ich auch den Big Bud Dünger abgesetzt. Die nächste Zeit werde ich nochmals das Batboost und Bloom hochfahren.
