Hello everyone! this week, I had to do defoliation all the same .. on that girl I was not going to touch .. the fact is that there were a lot of leaves .. too many .. it was difficult for the plant to breathe .. in short, I did defolation and also took advantage of the fact that the plant itself made a topping))) and with the help of the LST I took 2 central branches to the sides .. from today I will decrease the light regime gradually .. I hope this will help the plants show their gender as soon as possible ..

Harvest completed for Glueberry OG! Round 2 of this strains grow was majorly different from round 1. Buds are very dense and insanely sticky! Will update in 7-14 days with dry weight and smoke report. Thanks for checking out my grow 👽🌳🔥 09/01 dry weight of 96 grams. Primarily taste of fuel with a hint of berries. Nice balanced high! Output was better with round 2, taste/aroma is also better this round.

Purple Punch Auto gibt Vollgas. Krasser Stretch, sehr durstig. Ich habe Verfärbungen in den Blättern entdeckt. Chlorosen? Insgesamt sieht sie weiterhin fit aus. Ich versuche ein sanftes Spülen gegen eine evtl. Versalzung. Später stellt sich heraus, dass das wahrscheinlich geholfen hat.

Hola cultivadores. Se acerca la víspera de año nuevo, y con ello, la llegada de la floración. El día 12/27 observé las plantas y se aprecian diminutos pelos blancos, no están presentes en todas las ramas. Pero es suficiente para comenzar la fertilización con productos de floración. Escogí Bio-Bloom de BioBizz en su dosis media para que se adapte poco a poco al cambio de alimento, reduciendo igualmente el Fish-Mix a la mitad. Se mantuvo el Acti-Vera y el Alg-A-Mic en su misma dosis. Ya la planta alcanzó los 68 cm, esperemos crezca y engruese sus ramas porque igualmente están delgadas para soportar el peso de los cogollos.

💙 Project Blue Tent – Week 11 💙 Blue Waffle F1 – Pheno B 🌸 Same Room. Same Conditions. Another Beautiful Expression. Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter inside Project Blue Tent! 💙🌱 And once again... I'm looking at these girls and thinking: How can four plants look this similar? 😂💙 If you've been following Project Blue Tent, you'll know that we're documenting four individual plants from seed to harvest, each with her own dedicated diary. All four share the same tent. The same lighting. The same irrigation. The same reservoir. The same nutrition. The same environmental conditions. The same cultivation philosophy. And yet... each one gets her own chapter. Today it's time to give the spotlight to Blue Waffle F1 – Pheno B. And honestly? She's looking absolutely beautiful. 🌿 PHENO B – LET HER SHINE Pheno B has reached approximately 145 cm and has developed a fantastic flowering structure. At this stage, there isn't really a lot I want to change. And that's actually a good thing. The big work has already been done. The long vegetative period gave us the structure. The topping and training shaped the plant. The first SCROG organized the canopy. The aggressive flowering stretch forced us to rethink the vertical space. The major defoliation opened the plant. The second SCROG gave the flowering branches additional support. The ventilation system was moved outside the tent. The LEDs were raised. The airflow was improved. And now... we're watching all of those decisions come together. The plant is doing exactly what we wanted her to do. Grow. Flower. Develop. And increasingly... FROST. 😂💙🌸 🌸 THE FROST IS GETTING SERIOUS I have to say this because the photographs really don't need much explanation. The frost levels are beautiful. The flowers are becoming increasingly covered in trichomes, and every week the close-up photographs seem to reveal more. This is the part of the grow where you start looking at the plants differently. Earlier, we were looking at structure. Now we're looking at flowers. And those flowers are beginning to tell us their own story. The density. The development. The resin production. The structure. The way the flowers are forming along the branches. Everything is becoming much more interesting. And Pheno B is absolutely shining. 💙🌸 🌿 THE TOPPING AND STRUCTURE – LOOK AT THAT OPENING Another thing I'm really happy with this week is the structure created by the topping and training. When you look closely at Pheno B, you can really see how the plant opened up. The main structure divided beautifully. The branches spread through the available space. And the flowering sites are now positioned throughout that structure rather than all trying to occupy the exact same vertical point. This is one of those things that can be difficult to appreciate when you're doing the training weeks earlier. At the time, you're making cuts. Moving branches. Supporting growth. Trying to imagine what the plant will eventually become. Then several weeks later... you look at the flowering plant and suddenly understand why you did it. And that's exactly what I'm seeing now. The structure is there. The opening is there. The flowering sites are there. And the plant is filling that framework beautifully. 🕸️ THE X-CROSS – KEEPING THE STRUCTURE WORKING The support system is also doing exactly what we wanted. The second SCROG remains in place, helping organize and support the upper flowering structure. And with the way we've arranged the support through the canopy, we've created that X-cross structure that helps distribute and organize the flowering branches. The idea isn't to keep forcing the plant into a new shape. That stage is behind us. Now the structure simply needs to support what the plant has already built. And looking at Pheno B... I'd say it's doing a damn good job. 😂💙 The branches are supported. The flowers have room. The canopy is organized. And we can actually see through the plant. That's exactly where I want to be at this stage. 💡 UNDER-CANOPY LIGHTING – NOW PART OF THE SYSTEM The LumiFlora under-canopy lighting is also now fully integrated into the room. We're using the 150W full-spectrum LumiFlora fixtures underneath the canopy to provide supplemental light to the lower flowering structure. The main LEDs continue doing the primary work from above. The LumiFlora units are simply giving the lower portions of these very tall plants another source of light. And with plants reaching approximately 145 cm, this makes a lot of sense to me. The canopy is no longer a flat surface. It's a three-dimensional structure. There are upper flowers. Middle flowers. Lower flowers. Interior branches. And naturally, not all of those areas receive the same amount of light from above. So instead of constantly removing more foliage to chase light penetration... we're experimenting with bringing light into the lower part of the plant. And now? We watch. That's the fun part. 😂💡🌸 🌿 TWO LIGHT SOURCES. ONE VERY LARGE CANOPY. The interesting thing about this setup is that we're effectively looking at the plant from both directions. The main fixtures illuminate from above. The LumiFlora fixtures supplement from below. And the plant sits right between those two lighting environments. I'm particularly interested in seeing how the lower flowering sites continue developing as we move deeper into flowering. We're not making any promises about what the additional lighting will achieve. We're documenting it. We're watching. We're comparing. And we're letting the plants tell us what happens. That's the whole point of Project Blue Tent. 🔬 SAME ROOM – SAME CONDITIONS – DIFFERENT DIARY And this brings me to something I've been thinking about a lot during this project. People often use the word "genetics" when talking about individual plants. And obviously, genetics are involved in every plant. But I personally like using the word: "Cultivar." Why? Because we're looking at cultivated plant varieties. We're not simply talking about an abstract collection of genes. We're talking about plants that have been selected, developed and cultivated as a particular variety. And here we're working with Blue Waffle F1 cultivars. So throughout these diaries, when I talk about Pheno A, Pheno B and the other girls as individual cultivars, that's what I'm referring to. And honestly... the uniformity we're seeing makes this distinction particularly interesting. Because look at them. 😂💙 Same environment. Same reservoir. Same feeding. Same irrigation. Same lighting. Same training philosophy. And yet we're getting remarkably similar expressions. That's one of the things that makes these F1 plants so fascinating to observe. And if you already know all of this... beautiful. You know. 😂 If you didn't... hopefully you learned something today. And that's never a bad thing. I love learning. So I don't think there's ever too much useful information. 🌸 F1 UNIFORMITY – THEY REALLY DO LOOK LIKE SISTERS This is probably one of the most impressive things about this whole project. The plants are beginning to look almost like copies of one another. Different individual plants. Different diaries. But under the same conditions... the similarities are incredible. Similar height. Similar flowering structure. Similar development. Similar response to the training. Similar response to the defoliation. And now... similar frost. 😂💙🌸 Of course, we're still documenting them individually because the subtle differences are exactly what become interesting over time. Maybe those differences will become more obvious as flowering progresses. Maybe one will develop a slightly different structure. Maybe one will finish earlier. Maybe one will produce a different flower shape. Maybe the differences will become much more obvious closer to harvest. Or maybe... they'll continue looking like sisters all the way to the end. That's what we're here to discover. 🌬️ AIRFLOW – THE SYSTEM IS WORKING The airflow arrangement remains unchanged. We've got movement above and below the canopy, keeping the air circulating throughout this large flowering structure. And that's particularly important now that the canopy is so developed. The previous defoliation opened the plant. The additional airflow helps take advantage of that space. The lower portion of the plant isn't being ignored. And the under-canopy lighting is working inside that same environment. Everything has a role. Light. Air. Structure. Irrigation. Nutrition. And observation. Nothing needs to be dramatic. It simply needs to work. 💧 THEY'RE DRINKING BEAUTIFULLY Another thing I'm very happy with is how these girls are drinking. They're consuming well. The irrigation is keeping up. And the plants are showing us that they're comfortable with the current setup. The reservoir remains shared. The feeding remains shared. The irrigation remains shared. And yet Pheno B continues developing beautifully. This is exactly why having a consistent system is so valuable for this experiment. When all four plants receive the same inputs, we get a much more interesting opportunity to observe how the individual cultivars respond. ⚗️ SAME RESERVOIR – SAME NUTRITION The nutrition remains unchanged. We're continuing with: 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 adjustment as required No need to start changing things simply because another week has arrived. The plants are happy. They're drinking. They're flowering. They're producing frost. So we continue. Consistency is part of the experiment too. And honestly... when the plants look this good, I'm not interested in fixing something that isn't broken. 😂💙 🌸 THE PREVIOUS DEFOILATION IS NOW A DISTANT MEMORY It's also interesting to look at Pheno B now and remember what she looked like immediately after the major defoliation. At the time, there was a dramatic difference. A lot of foliage had been removed. The structure became much more open. And then we had to wait. That's the difficult part. You make the decision. You do the work. And then... you leave the plant alone. Now we're seeing the result. The plant has continued growing. The flowers have developed. The structure has filled out. And the flowering sites are clearly visible. The plant didn't need us to keep interfering. She simply needed time. 🌿 SOMETIMES DOING NOTHING IS DOING SOMETHING This is probably one of the biggest lessons from this stage of Project Blue Tent. There's a temptation in cultivation to constantly do something. Adjust something. Move something. Change something. Feed something. Cut something. Measure something. 😂 But sometimes... the plants don't need another intervention. They need stability. They need time. They need the environment to remain consistent. And they need us to have enough discipline to leave them alone. That's where we are now. The structure is built. The support is installed. The lighting is established. The airflow is working. The irrigation is working. The nutrition is stable. So... let her do her thing. 🌸 CURRENT GROW 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 💦 Watering: approximately 1.6 L per plant / 24h ? Pot size: 8 L NUTRIENT RECIPE 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 PLAGRON pH Plus — 0.03 ml/L PLAGRON pH Minus — 0.03 ml/L 💡 UNDER-CANOPY LIGHTING 2 × LumiFlora 150W Full Spectrum 🌸 THE FLOWERS ARE TAKING OVER This is where the story becomes really exciting. For weeks, we were talking about the plant. Now we're talking about the flowers. And Pheno B is giving us plenty to talk about. The flowering sites are developing beautifully throughout the structure. The branches are carrying them well. The frost is becoming increasingly obvious. And the entire plant has that unmistakable look of a flowering plant entering a very interesting stage. The close-up photographs really show it. The trichomes are becoming more visible. The flowers are becoming more defined. And the whole plant is starting to sparkle. 💙🌸 🔭 WHAT I'M WATCHING NOW At this point, my list is actually pretty simple. I'm watching the flowers. I'm watching the frost. I'm watching the lower canopy under the LumiFlora lighting. I'm watching the structure. I'm watching how the second SCROG continues supporting the branches. I'm watching how much the plants continue to drink. And I'm watching the four cultivars develop under exactly the same conditions. That's it. No major intervention. No unnecessary changes. Just observation. Because right now... the plants are doing exactly what we want. 🌿 WHAT WILL THE FUTURE BRING? And this is the part where I honestly don't know. We have a beautiful flowering structure. We have impressive uniformity. We have increasing frost. We have healthy development. We have stable environmental conditions. And we have four incredibly interesting F1 cultivars sharing the same environment. But what happens next? That's the exciting part. Will the flowers continue stacking at this rate? Will the frost become even heavier? Will the subtle differences between the cultivars become more obvious? Will the lower flowering sites respond noticeably to the supplemental lighting? And what will Pheno B look like when she reaches maturity? I have no idea. 😂💙 And I absolutely love that. Because if we already knew the ending... what would be the fun of documenting the journey? 💙 FINAL THOUGHTS – SAME ROOM, BEAUTIFUL RESULT So... Week 11. Same tent. Same room. Same reservoir. Same irrigation. Same nutrition. Same lighting from above. Same environmental conditions. And yet... another beautiful individual story. Blue Waffle F1 Pheno B is looking fantastic. She's approximately 145 cm tall. Her structure is beautifully opened from the topping and training. The flowering branches are supported by the second SCROG. The canopy is receiving airflow from above and below. The LumiFlora under-canopy lighting is now helping illuminate the lower flowering structure. She's drinking beautifully. She's flowering beautifully. And the frost... Oh my God. 😂💙🌸 The frost is becoming ridiculous. And that's exactly the kind of problem I like having. 😂 The most interesting part for me, though, is seeing how similar these F1 cultivars are behaving. Four individual plants. One controlled environment. And remarkably consistent results. That doesn't mean every plant will finish identically. It doesn't mean there aren't individual differences. That's exactly why we're documenting them separately. But right now... they're giving us a fascinating look at just how uniform these plants can be under consistent conditions. And that's something I want to keep watching. We're not going to force the story. We're not going to chase numbers. We're not going to keep changing things just so we have something to write about. We're going to let the plants write the next chapter. And Pheno B? She's writing a beautiful one. 💙🌸🌿 The structure is ready. The support is ready. The lighting is ready. The airflow is ready. The irrigation is ready. The nutrition is ready. Now... we wait. We watch. We learn. And we enjoy the show. Let's see what the future has waiting for this beautiful girl. Because if she keeps going like this... I have a feeling we're going to have some very special flowers to photograph. 😂💙🌸 🙏 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 Blue Waffle F1 cultivars individually. Thank you to PLAGRON for the Hydro nutrient line supporting these girls throughout this vigorous flowering cycle. A massive thank you to Mars Hydro for the irrigation and drainage system that continues keeping this entire ecosystem supplied and running beautifully. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Phytonaut LED lighting, the curved scissors and the clip fans that have become such important parts of this project. And a huge thank you to LumiFlora for the 150W full-spectrum under-canopy lighting that we're now using to explore supplemental lighting throughout this very large flowering structure. And of course... thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the platform to document every part of this journey. The good. The unexpected. The experiments. The mistakes. The lessons. And now... the frost. 😂💙🌸 Most importantly, thank you to everyone following Project Blue Tent. Four individual cultivars. One room. One environment. One reservoir. One cultivation philosophy. And four girls showing us just how beautifully consistent these F1 plants can be. But we're not at the finish line yet. There's still a lot of flower development ahead. There's still a lot of frost to watch. There's still a lot to learn. And Pheno B has plenty more story left to tell. Until next week... Same room. Same conditions. Same beautiful girl. More flowers. More frost. More observation. And hopefully... even more reasons to smile when we open that tent. 💙🌸🌿 Growers Love, happy growing, and take care everyone! 🌱💙

SATURDAY 8/11: It's late Friday night..early Saturday morning..might as well start week 8! All systems are 'GO', and it's looking like I'm about 10-14 days away from starting the flush on WW#1 and maybe EM#1. I'm salivating 😍 I just gotta get these temperatures down a bit more.. SUNDAY 8/12: Yesterday I ordered a couple of 15.0 UVB 26w CFL bulbs to suspend over the girls that are the closest to finished..try to get them to ooze some more THC for me. Today I started germinating 7 more White White Autos from CKS and 4 more Candy Cane Autos from CKS. They will also be planted in 5gal fabric pots. They will be grown in the veg tent and moved into the main tent as space becomes available. The current crop will be harvested in waves, so I'll just employ stools for the new arrivals until everybody's been harvested from the current crop and I can lower the light again. MONDAY: I'm really starting to see the effects of the heat stress from this past week. So many dead or dying leaves. Temperatures are staying below 90 at the canopy and closer to 80 at the floor during the day..varying between 83 and 87 for most of the day and climbing to about 89 by sunset. It drops to 78-80 for 5 hours of nighttime. That's a shitload better than the mid to high 90's of last week, but the damage, I'm afraid, has been done.😢 EM#1 and WW#1 aren't gonna have enough vegetation left to do much else and I want to trim away the necrotic shit before it reaches the sugary stuff. There might be enough lower leaves left alive that I can just harvest the main colas and let the lower regions be for another week of swelling and flushing, but if not, they will get one more dose of tiger bloom and cha ching in 2 days, then two days later I will flush them really well and trim off all the dead shit. Let them dry for another day or two and flush them one more time really well and put them in the dark for a day before harvesting. EM#2 still has a good bit of green in her big fan leaves and will probably perk up and show me some more bud development.🙏 EM#3 hates anything above 85 degrees, so I'll probably never make her happy..😟 WW#2 and EM#4 don't seem to have been bothered by the heat near as much.👍 CC#1 and CC#2 don't like the heat at all..but they are killer dwarves and will pull through just fine.👌 I mixed up 7 gallons of ph'd water with calmag, bud candy, big bloom (no nitrogen), and a very heavy dose of boomerang and douched everybody really well. TUESDAY: The crispy girls got a big haircut today. I cut away most of the necrotic stuff on EM#1, EM#2, and WW#1. Buds should stay pretty for another few days...and wow are they pretty! The 3 plants still have enough foliage that I've decided to let them bask under the UVB lights for a day or two between flushes...see if I can't get them to ooze a little more of the good stuff. I moved them into the areas in the garden with less PAR..mainly 660nm reds and the UVBs. I also raised the lights about 2 inches. Pretty sure that EM#4 and WW#2 are within a week of finishing as well. So far, I have 3 new WW and 2 new CC sprouts planted. One WW has emerged thus far. She shall be called "WW#3" unless she earns a nickname. New photos and video clips were taken today. WEDNESDAY: I had a 100% germination success rate with the 7 new WW's and 4 new CC's! They all got planted today, but I ran out of soil (still waiting on Amazon shipment) so I had to plant several of them in smaller pots and will have to transplant them to 5 gal pots when the Happy Frog and Coco Loco arrives. They are in the veg tent for now, but it looks like I'll have plenty of room for them all in the big tent within a week or two. WW#1 and EM#1 got flushed with 6 gallons of ph'd spring water today and will have another day/night to bask in the UVB and deep red lights, then I'll put them in the dark for another day before lovingly hacking them to bits. 😜 EM#2 isn't quite ready yet..various up-close looks at her 14" cola told me that she still has time..probably only about 20-30% cloudy trichromes now, so more Cha Ching for her tomorrow! EM#4 is in a hurry to finish..betting tomorrow will be her last nutrient dose. EM#3 is a slow-poke..maybe two more weeks or more to fully fatten her up. CC#1 is gonna be a quick one for sure..maybe another week or 10 days at most. CC#2 might be 2 more weeks. THURSDAY: Mixed up a 2 gallon batch of early flowering nutes for the CC's and Bush Bitch, 2.5 gallons of late flowering nutes for WW#2, EM#4.. and I decided that EM#2 just isn't ready yet, so she got late flowering nutes as well. The pots on WW#1 and EM#1 were still very heavy, so they were allowed to soak up the reds and UV's for another day to hopefully dry out a little more. FRIDAY: WW#1 and EM#1 are still hoping for a reprieve from the Governor, but it's not looking good for them...their sentences are set to be carried out at dawn. Last night they were stripped down and taken into lights-out solitary confinement to await their execution. They were given no last meal and when asked if they had any final requests, they asked only that they be cremated in a series of small fires spanning a couple of months. 😏

Week 6 of flower! Coming into the final stretch and thankfully this catches me up to the present with this journal. All the girl's are really getting thirsty faster and I've upped their daily to 1gl each with half doses of CalMag+ and PH'd to 6.3. I'll be changing PH to 6.5 for the last 3 weeks of flower to help with their autuming off. The WW is getting so resinous it's ridiculous. Keeping nighttime temps @ 60F and mid 70's during the day with 4 hours of enhanced UV via the HLG UV bar. Supposed to help with tricome and terpene production....we'll see!

Nothing to report. Seedling. I use chop sticks to hold up the plants until they are strong. Prevents them from blowing over.

July 25: looking good. Recovering nicely from the hail damage two weeks ago, and now into the second week of force flowering. Looks good. July 26: watered with compost tea this morning. Plants missed heavy rain last night as they were in darkness in garage. July 29: top dressed with malted barley, soil, compost and a bit of gypsum, Epsom salts and dolomite for cal-mag sources. Malted barley is key flowering nutrient as it provides P, K and enzymes.
