CONTEST TEKNOGROW BIG BUDDHA SEEDS BUDDHA TAHOE GROWER GIOVANNI

9/28 Day 24. Raised air pumps above the water line using two 5 gal buckets. Removed the inline air backflow valve and this increased aeration greatly! - Feeding day. Red TDS 850. EC 1.8 / Blue TDS 800. EC 1.7 / Yellow TDS 785. EC 1.6 / 10ml CalMag, 10ml Micro, 5ml Grow, 5ml Bloom, 2ml UC Roots. Will check TDS & EC through the week as they are starting to drink up the water. - LST started today. I will be adjusting them daily to pull off shoot branches in different directions. 9/30 Day 26. Added water for the first time. Used purified drinking water from the grocery store (Ph 7.45 TDS 95 EC .2) and PH'd it down to 5.9 10/1 Day 27. Readjusted the LST wires and added some new ones on the stems that can now be pulled in different directions. Red suffered a break on the main stem that went 1/2 through the stalk. I decided to use the LST wire to push it back together so that it can heal. I will still train the other shoots in different directions and let the main stem just do it's thing. Blue and Yellow pulled in new directions to open up the middle and spread out the stems. - I defoliated (light amount) some of the 3 leaf blades that were touching the container lids, and any larger 5 leaf blades that were blocking light to any new shoots with new stem growth and potential bud sites. I wanted to allow the air flow at the lower section of the plant. 10/2 Day 28. Everyone is bouncing back from the LST. Keeping a close eye on Red and the injury healing. I've decided to do a 1/2 of a weekly feed every 4 days instead of a mass feeding once a week. I will test the TDS and EC, see what the plants are telling me before I feed of course. (All values before feeding) - Red PH 5.98 TDS 720 EC 1.512 - Blue PH 6.17 TDS 728 EC 1.544 / Will add .25 PH down and re-test all in an hour after the feed to check PH values. - Yellow PH 5.93 TDS 708 EC 1.497 Feeding: 5ml CalMag, 5ml Micro, 4 ml Gro, 2ml Bloom, 2ml UC Root Guard. Post Feed values: - Red PH 5.78 TDS 808 EC 1.695 - Blue PH 5.90 TDS 846 EC 1.796 - Yellow PH 5.73 TDS 803 EC 1.700 Lessons learned week 4. 1. Be a little more gentle on LST. 2. Mark the water sight gauge at each 1 gallon increment so that I can track water replenishment levels. 3. Started a spreadsheet to monitor feeding value changes.

I harvest these shiny buds 2 days ago. She ended in 109 days of life of that 59 in flowering. she grew with dark green leaves and tighten buds, I am pretty happy with the result. the smell is full of fruit and incense will update harvest again when buds gonna be dry

: End of week #6, and I’m extremely happy with the results so far, especially considering the conditions inside the tent — it’s quite small with limited airflow. The plants are in full bloom and still bulking up nicely. A strong aroma is starting to fill the space (my roommates are already complaining about the smell!). I’ve been following the BioBizz feeding schedule to the letter, carefully keeping the pH between 6.3 and 6.5, and watering every other day without skipping nutrients. As shown in previous weeks, my RHC #2 has become the tallest plant, and it’s clearly the one that will produce the biggest and fattest colas. RHC #1, on the other hand, is denser but its colas aren’t as large. Overall, I’m very pleased with the progress and now eagerly waiting for the moment to start the drying process. I assume that eventually the colas will start turning red, although there’s only about a 60% chance of that happening. RHC #1 is already showing some color on its leaves, which is a good sign. Once it’s fully mature, the colors should become more intense — hopefully shifting into a deep, vibrant red. I’m really looking forward to seeing that transformation take place as the plants reach their final stages. 😍

Setted up this cutting of Skywalker. Having some initial problems with air and humidity. Hopefully is going to rain soon so humidity will rise a bit. Planning to do some LST and ScrOG. I'm helped by a friend because my skills are not good enough yet. Let me know if you liked the sequences! I'm trying to do some timelapse research as well. Raspberry is running the timelapse and compiling the video I'm trying to update every day or two. 😷7/12 Changed water due nutrients deposit. Clean start as the roots have touched the water. EC 1.5 Ph 6.2 😵Ps. light was set with VEG and BLOOM BOTH ON! Lol, hopefully this is the 5th day 😂

Day 127. Oh boy it will be my longest grown plant indoors. This bean is from bagweed, just wanted to show, that from shitty weed found seed you can produce good result, but i screw up with this girl by having no space for her, by giving her to wrong guy ... And now again, i checked temps during my holidays and lowest was 13 , highiest 33 ... Very bad, she is from leafy pheno and that didnt helped for buds and leafy i dont like already, hate triming .... ;) Will do last hard training apart from everyday lst here and there , she will loose a bit of leaves tomorrow before watering just phed water. I never feed after training. Tomorrow she will go to new tent and i start new diary, hands full ;) Happy growing ! Day 128. Girl got small defoliation , up to 50 leaves, now more buds get light, have to prepare her for smaller , where i will fit only one light, otherwise its too hot inside .... All movement postponed for a bit, have to leave town so only phed water for her after new look. She drinks now like 5 liters every 3 days. Day 131 . She is stinky sticky b**ch ;)) Amazing plant, my mini bonza, would want to flaten her up, but in new tent fan has to have space aswel ;) Her new fan is delayed an i quess it will take a week to be redelivered ... Fingers crossed. Heavy feed - done. ;) Day 132. She starts to pack up a bit, maybe it will be something desent again. Girl is under two lights ( quantum boards 2x240) and in a week will stay just under 240 , but in new tight house with better reflection from walls, hope it will even pars , despite power loss .... I think i will smoke first joint on day 160, its almost half of the year, crazy adventure ... Her leaves are too green, so no silica and red leaves stemps doesnt show up, so no cal mag . Think she'll have like 2-3 feeds max in two weeks and then final strech ;)

Perked right up when I started base watering.

April, 5th We are coming to an End. The Triple G sits in 15l Smartpots filled with my Soilmix and amended with EASY BOOST ORGANIC NUTRITION from RQS Iam Watering them with Beneficals and Bloom Fertilisers from @GreenBuzzLiquids One Plant was already Harvested, the other ones coming soon Iam going to do a single Application with "Clean Fruits" and then Iam going on with Feeding them until Harvestday The Last Days ,Buds were maturating, Pistils turned more orange, and the smell......hmmmmmmmm i think 10-14 more Days #keep on Growing

This week went pretty good! I did some light defoliation, and I also had to tie up some colas for support, as they started drooping towards the floor as the buds begin to bulk up finally. I believe I have another week or two at most for them to bulk, then it will be time to flush. The pictures really do not show how this pig is taking over my little 4x4. I never thought one auto could damn near fill a 4X4, but little miss piggy is trying. The more I feed this hog, the hungrier she gets. I also started feeding her some PK booster last week. I believe my plan to rotate these autos will work out well, as there is absolutely no way I could fit 4 autos in my tent at once nearing the end of flower. I am very excited to see what this lady can do in the next few weeks! Thank you for stopping by, and all the encouragement and support! I appreciate it! Be safe, stay well, and Blaze On!!!

This week I moved them into bigger pots, which is why I think now they were not growing as big as I hoped. They seem to be doing well, and I have added the net now and will let the canopy build up. Since I moved to bigger pots, I did not need to water for a bit, but I think it will be back to normal this week. Check out the video I did today of the room.

December 2nd: Week 6 has started, hopefully last week of veg, defoliating, started feeding Sweet Candy, reducing humidity... more to come Tuesday night and it's end of week 6 or day 42, they are doing well, about 16 inches tall and bushy but I feel like another week of veg wouldn't hurt, hoping to get them all around 18 inches tall before I flip Comments and likes appreciated, stay high

Right now it’s a pre harvest I took a few of the branches and it plenty left i I’ll be back with in 2 weeks or so with and fa sure harvest report 12/18/21 *update so far with the buds I harvested half the left side 83.7 grams minus the few grams I smoked already not 2 shabby for a rookie. N I still got more drying. Dat I just harvested and whole another side to harvest hope I can hit That qp mark dat would Be awesome sauce will be back with the rest of the harvest *Update 12/26/07. My first weigh in was 83.7 and this one was 69.1 so in all I have 152 grams off one plant a qp off one plant from a. Vipar spectra. 450w And galaxy hydro 300 w. NOt to shabby for a noob I will be selling my lights to get me optic 4 led with CREE cobs or maybe get the optic 6 led. I can only imagine the yields. Oan Merry Christmas Feliz Navida. happy hannakah and everything else in between

Plant A seems to be packing weight on now had to tie a few branches up, Plant B seems behind i think its because it just kept on stretching done abit more defoliation on it throughout this week, Plant C is A lot smaller than the other 2 and is looking a lot more closer to harvest its currently 5 days into a flush, the best pictures i could get of the trichomes i have added can anyone tell me what they think from my pics how much longer i think a few days but this is my first grow? Would appreciate anyone comments thanks

He subido el número de horas de luz a 20 y mantengo el riego con 500mL

Estas dos últimas semanas están creciendo notablemente y ya tocaba hacer algo. Esta segunda semana de flora tocó ir preparando la estructura para poder más adelante atar todas las ramas sin mucha dificultad. También se le añadió un tutor central para mantener la planta bién recta y aguante bién en un futuro el cogollo apical. a dia 60 diria que dejaron de crecer en altura como lo venian haciendo estos últimos dias, esta semana no llegaremos a los 20 ctms de más. Sin embargo se han ido ensanchando algo más, las ramas bajeras miden ya lo suyo. Observamos también el inicio de la formación del cogollo sin ninguna duda. con 63 dias Nº1 - 156 ctms. y la Nº4 133 ctms. de altura. de nuevo volvimos aplicar via foliar el Plant Vitaly Plus 50ml/L. por última vez.

Plants are now on the autopilot phase of the grow. The stretch has stopped and the buds have began to fill the branch tips. It's going to be very nice when they fill in.

🏆 Grower’s Spec Sheet: "The Monster" Cultivar: [unknown] Harvest Date: March 6, 2026 Total Flower Time: 8 Weeks, 6 Days (62 Days) 📊 Technical Data System: VIVOSUN Wicking Reservoir (1.6 Gal) Medium: [Soil/Coco/Pro-Mix] Lighting: Full Spectrum LED Atmospheric Peak: Daytime 1.5 kPa VPD / 73.2°F Nighttime "Color Trigger": 1.3 kPa VPD / 67.6°F Final Flush Baseline: 234 PPM at pH 6.2 Finishing Technique: 48-hour Arctic Root Shock (35°F Ice Flush) 🌿 Organoleptic Profile (The Senses) Aroma: Deep "sweet-honey" notes with a fading chlorophyll background. High terpene retention due to sub-75°F daytime finish. Visuals: Heavy anthocyanin expression (Deep Purple/Violet) across 85% of fan leaves and calyxes. Resin: High-viscosity "glass-bead" trichomes; milky heads with approx. 10-15% amber transition for a balanced cerebral/body effect. 🖋️ Grower’s Notes "The Monster responded exceptionally well to a late-stage thermal drop. By maintaining a strict 1.3–1.5 kPa VPD throughout the final 14 days, we pushed resin production to its genetic limit. The final 48-hour ice flush was utilized to maximize the contrast between the dark purple leaf tissue and the heavy white frost for high-definition photography." 🏆 Final Harvest Summary: "The Monster" Total Grow Time: 14 Weeks Flowering Time: 8 Weeks, 4 Days Final Flush Peak: 826 PPM (Purge) / 683 PPM (Settled) Final Environment: 70.9°F / 52% RH (VPD 1.2 kPa) 📝 Grower’s Final Notes: "We officially crossed the finish line with 'The Monster.' This run was a masterclass in environmental manipulation. Using the VIVOSUN Smart Controller, I was able to taper the temperatures down to a chilly 70.9°F in the final 48 hours to trigger a massive anthocyanin surge, resulting in deep violet and plum-colored colas. The Arctic Flush: I performed a cold-shock flush using 44°F ice water. The plant responded immediately, purging stored minerals and causing the reservoir PPM to jump from 254 to a peak of 826. This 'internal detox' successfully removed the harshness, leaving behind the 'sweet' terpene profile confirmed in pre-harvest testing. Final Results: The buds are dense, heavily frosted with trichomes, and exhibit the classic 'magazine-look' structure. The trellis system was essential in supporting the weight of these purple colas. Total success. 🏆 Final Harvest Report: "The Monster" Genetics: [Insert Strain Name] Total Cycle: 14 Weeks Flowering Time: 8 Weeks, 6 Days (Final Chop: March 6th) Medium: Coco/Perlite in VIVOSUN Wicking Reservoir 📊 Final Environment & Technical Specs Final Temp (Blackout): 66.3°F (Triggered deep purple/black hues) Final Humidity: 55% RH Final VPD: 1.0 kPa Lighting: VIVOSUN LED (100% Intensity final week / 24h Final Blackout) Nutrient Management: VIVOSUN Wicking System ❄️ The "Arctic Flush" Results To ensure the cleanest possible flavor and a smooth white ash, I performed a strategic cold-shock flush: Pre-Flush Baseline: 254 PPM Ice Water Shock (44°F): Triggered a massive mineral purge. Peak Waste Discharge: 826 PPM (Confirmed successful salt removal) Final Stable PPM: 577 PPM (Perfect landing zone for harvest) 📝 Grower’s Notes: "The Monster exceeded all expectations. By utilizing the VIVOSUN Smart Controller, I was able to drop temperatures into the mid-60s during the final 48 hours, which caused the anthocyanins to explode. The canopy shifted from a forest green to a deep, royal violet. The Arctic Flush was a game-changer. Seeing the PPM jump from 254 to over 800 proved that the ice water shock physically forced the plant to dump stored minerals back into the reservoir. The result is a heavy, resin-coated flower that smells incredibly sweet and lacks any chemical 'harshness.' This was a smooth, high-performance run from start to finish." 👅 Flavor & Aroma Profile Primary Terpenes: [E.g., Sweet Berry, Fuel, Citrus] Bud Density: 10/10 (Rock hard, thanks to the trellis support) Bag Appeal: 10/10 (Deep purple with high-contrast white trichomes) Time,Internal Temp,Internal RH,VPD,Fan Setting,Notes 12:21 PM,62.6°F,55%,0.9 kPa,Level 2,Humidity dropping fast; surface moisture evaporating. 8:47 PM,61.9°F,57%,0.8 kPa,Level 1,PRO MOVE: Dropped fan to buffer against dry basement air. 11:15 PM,60.8°F,58%,0.8 kPa,Level 1,"Achievement: The ""58/58 Handshake"" (Tent RH matches Grove Bag target)." 📓 Grow Diary: The unknownDrying Phase Day 1: The Harvest & Hang Action: Whole-plant hang of the "unkown”. Initial Stats: High humidity in the tent due to the massive moisture content of the fresh colas. Strategy: Establishing the airflow and setting the VGrow to manage the initial moisture dump. Day 2: The "Danger Zone" Pivot Challenge: Humidity spiked to 67%—risking mold and "wet" odors. Correction: You successfully navigated the spike by adjusting settings, bringing the humidity back down into the safety zone (below 62%). This was the first sign of an "Advanced" grower at work. Day 3: Setting the Baseline Observation: Buds still felt damp/wet to the touch. The Goal: Aiming for a 10-day dry due to the extreme thickness of the colas. Stability: Environment stabilized at 62.6°F / 55% RH, establishing a solid foundation for the second half of the dry. Day 4: The "Precision Craft" Transition (Current) Tactical Change: Dropped Exhaust Fan to Level 1 to shield the tent from the dry basement air. Texture: Buds transitioned from "wet" to "less wet/tacky." Small sugar leaves started feeling crisp while the core remained soft. The Achievement: Hit the "58/58 Handshake" at 11:15 PM (60.8°F / 58% RH). Decision: Committed to Grove Bags for the cure and the Frenchy Cannoli "Warm Bottle Roll" for the kief processing. 📊 Summary Stats (Day 1 – Day 4) Coldest Temp: 60.8°F (Day 4) Peak Humidity: 67% (Day 2) Current VPD: 0.8 kPa (Perfectly steady for 11+ hours)

Day 64, 22nd of November 2021: Hi there! Here we go..... so basically pistils are appearing stronger this is the 2nd weeks since they started producing pre flowers. The plants getting a bit light might be some air circulation problem? However they look good and of course closer to the end the gettin' older so the leaves also die. Set up and timing is the same since flower season started. ViparSpectra XS2000 is on full power which is 240W so 100% capacity. Ventilation: 12 hours period when the lamp is on it switches 1 hour on and after one hour off mostly to keep the temperature and of course because of fresh air flow. When the lamp is off it switches on in every 2 hours for 15 min at the same time with the extraction fan. The extraction fan is on 12 hours when the lamp is, and then it switches on in every 2 hours for 30 min. That's all a bit more water for them from today also. Humidity quite the same approx 50%, temperature as well approx 26-27 Celsius. Fertilization remains the same since last week, the BioBizz family raised up to be 2ml/L each so it is like 2ml/L of BioGrow, 2ml/L of BioBloom, 2ml/L of TopMax... see the ratio above. The schedule of the fertilization has not changed happnes 2x a week except epsom salt just 1x a week.
