AlpenZilla Seeds were placed into Jiffys on July 16th.
All three successfully sprouted by July 19th and are now standing strong under gentle light.
Humidity and warmth were kept stable to support healthy germination.
Let the journey begin!

AlpenZilla 🌿 Veg – Week 2 complete
Another smooth week –
everything is growing steadily and evenly. 🌿
📌 Worth mentioning:
With Plagron Lightmix, I can finally measure the drain EC reliably –
much better results than in previous grows so far.
Next up: transplanting into the big pots –
let’s see how well they handle the move.

AlpenZilla 🗓️ Veg – Week 4 complete (2 days late 😅)
Nothing but good news this week:
The 15L pots are already fully rooted after just one week – much faster than expected.
The plants are looking healthy and full of energy 🌿
I’m still going very light on the nutrients – currently at about 50% of the Advanced Nutrients schedule.
Still, they’re clearly starting to take in more – you can feel the momentum building 🚀
Regular LST has also paid off – the structure is opening up nicely, staying compact and well-exposed to light 🔧🌱
And here’s a major milestone to wrap up veg:
I switched to 12/12 right at the beginning of Week 5 – flowering phase is officially on! 🌸

AlpenZilla 🌸 Week 5 – First Week of Flower ✅
The light cycle has been set to 12/12 since the start of the week, but there are no real signs of flowering on Cherry MAC Muffin just yet.
However, she’s already starting to stretch nicely! 📏
Current height: 46 cm
The plant looks strong, healthy, and full of energy. 💪
💧 Watering & Feeding
➤ 6 L per plant every 3 days
➤ Feeding at ~50 % of the Advanced Nutrients schedule
➤ Input EC: ~1.3
➤ Runoff EC (Cherry MAC): 1.0
Still super happy with the substrate mix (Plagron Lightmix + Coco) – runoff values are stable and easy to measure. 👌
Looking back, I probably could’ve flipped a week earlier – the tent’s filling up fast now! 😄

AlpenZilla 🗓️ Week 6 – Flower Week 2 ✅
Second week of flower is done – no issues so far, everything’s looking stable and healthy 🌸
Cherry MAC Muffin is developing evenly and continues to thrive.
💧 Watering & Feeding
➤ 6 L per plant every 3 days
➤ Input EC: 1.3
➤ Runoff EC (Cherry MAC): 0.92
I’m currently feeding at least 50 % of the AN schedule, but since she's taking it well, I’ll increase to 75 % on the next watering.
No signs of deficiency at this point – nutrient uptake looks solid 💪
📏 Current height (Cherry MAC): 76 cm
Stretching seems to be slowing down – everything’s calm for now.
