Greetings once more, Growmies, As we navigate through week 11, our Epic Buzz lineage continues to flourish with resounding success. The cultivation journey for Epic Buzz #1, #2, and #3 is nearing its zenith, with buds expanding around the colas, a sight that signifies their readiness for the approaching harvest. The magnificence of Epic Buzz #1 is undeniable, with its flowers growing increasingly dense and its trichomes glinting like a constellation of stars. This reflects not only the plant's innate potential but also the nurturing environment we've fostered. Epic Buzz #2 and #3 echo this grandeur, exhibiting a shared trait of excellence that pervades our entire crop. Our commitment to environmental precision is evidenced by the optimal PAR meter reading of 619 PPFD, indicative of the careful calibration of light our plants are basking in. The environmental snapshot, showcasing a temperature steady at 25.3°C and humidity at a comfortable 65.8%, speaks to the ideal conditions we've maintained. These are conditions conducive to thriving growth, as reflected in the stability shown in our environmental graphs, which reveal our continued efforts to uphold this controlled haven. With no CO2 management in place, we've leaned on the natural ambient levels to suffice for our plants' needs, while the light dimming at 55% ensures that our plants are receiving the right amount of energy without any risk of light burn. Our IR and UV lighting regimes have been meticulously scheduled, bolstering growth and encouraging resin production, all the while mimicking the nurturing embrace of natural sunlight. The adjustment to feeding intervals, now set to 1 liter per plant every two days, is met with robust health, showcasing the effectiveness of our nutrient regimen. In this critical stage of flowering, our diligent oversight of the environmental factors is evident in the vibrancy and health of Epic Buzz #1, #2, and #3. They stand not only as bearers of a fruitful harvest but as proof of our balanced approach to cultivation, one that honors the plant's natural needs without overcomplicating the process. As the harvest approaches, our anticipation is matched by a sense of accomplishment for the expertise and attention that has been poured into this grow. Stay lifted, Salokin

Hi guys! Sorry havent updated for a while, there has been alot of going on so the plants have gotten very little attention. And I have been ashamed of myself for letting the canophy get that out of hands. The vertical growth just continues on and on, there is not much room to lift the lights anymore. The Hydroguard really did the job, no root problems anymore. Buds are starting to swell and smell is more intense. Anyways nothing wrong with them other than the lack of care in last few weeks. But Its nice to be back!

Stickiest plant I've ever grown hands down. I'm looking forward to the end product - next week I will be looking under the microscope to see the status of the trichomes to determine when the flush will be.

This is the last post with mid quality pictures and video since I will be going home soon 😀. It is a bit rainy back home so she has to be under a roof or inside a lot of the time. The nutes will be upped to 4ml/l for both the grow and the bloom nutes.

Very easy strain to grow that’s has little to no stretch from transition from veg to flower. Fairly quick flowering time. Super fat, dense buds. Real unique tasting strain as I can’t pin point an exact flavour. Good all round strain. If you grow her you’ll need to veg her to the final size you want her at. Loads of purple in my pheno, which is aesthetically pleasing to the eye.

The original Purple Punch is a cross between Larry OG and Grandaddy Purple, illustrious and stable indica dominant THC-rich heavyweights! The total grow cycle from autoflower seed to harvest is a short 9 weeks. You will be rewarded with a large yield of sticky resinous buds, up to 600g/m2 indoors. If you’re looking to grow a high quality indica auto made with cannabis cup winning genetics you will love Auto Purple OG Punch. THC content is always up-to/around 20%. Auto Purple OG Punch effects are intense, euphoric and relaxed. She also contains around 1% CDB which contributes to the very smooth, chilled smoke. Expect a mouthwatering blend of sweet tasting candy, dark fruit and hints of spice. A real connoisseur cocktail with powerful effects! She normally reaches around 1m tall. But in optimized conditions with LED grow lights you can see occasional monster plants up to 2m tall with XXL yields. Auto Purple OG Punch is easy, potent and heavy yielding indoors. She also delivers well outdoors - such as the balcony or garden. Auto Purple OG Punch is a perfect, powerful strain for a quiet relaxed day. The calming indica body effect is very satisfying and de-stressing

Mar 24: Watering till runoff now... runoff ppm was 2500+... Will be using very mild nutes to flush over 1 - 3 feeds... or until I am near my input. Mar 26: Continuing to use 650ppm feed with bloom focus, 2L per plant gives 15% runoff... Runoff ppm is still very high... I wanted to check pH of runoff but the color is so vibrant i cant use the pH drops to view color, need to get a pH probe. Plants are thriving, no issues at all. the extra fan fixed the post-water droop. One plant is bushy and has the most bud sites, One is the smallest but has the most uniform structure, this one has the biggest buds and thickest stalk, One is about in the middle of the 2. Mar 29: one of these girls gets droopy early when its time for water, thought the canopy was too high so i tied down some more, no cigar... gonna try increasing calmag, if that doesent work im going to reposition in the grow box to a side instead of middle, may not need the upper end ppfd...

Week 4 - It’s Friday again, and that means it's update day! Another week has passed, and as usual, there's plenty to report. A lot has happened, and once again, I’m bringing you along on my journey as a total beginner in the world of growing. Every week is a new learning experience, and I’m excited to share what’s been going on in the tent as my Amnesia Zkittlez and Gorilla Cookies continue to grow. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key Growing Parameters -Humidity: 43-55% -VPD: Max 1.4 -Airflow: Always active at level 1, auto-adjusts when needed -Day Temperature: 25-26°C -Night Temperature: 22°C -Light Cycle: 20 hours light / 4 hours dark -Lamp: IONBOARD S24 from AC Infinity (240W) Watering Schedule: -Day 24: 1 liter -Day 26: 1 liter -Nutrients are applied with every watering Light Adjustments: -Light distance now at 50 cm -Intensity increased to level 10 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Growth Update The most noticeable change this week has been the incredible growth of the plants. I’ve uploaded some new photos for everyone to see, and it’s amazing how much they’ve shot up compared to last week. The differences in growth behavior between the Amnesia Zkittlez and Gorilla Cookies are becoming even more pronounced. The Amnesia Zkittlez has more than doubled in height since last week, shooting up and stretching outward. Meanwhile, the Gorilla Cookies hasn’t grown as much in height, but it has become noticeably rounder and bushier, almost like a pufferfish. It's fascinating to watch these plants develop in such different ways. While the Zkittlez focuses on vertical growth, the Gorilla Cookies is spreading out horizontally, forming a dense, compact structure. All around the plant, small flower sites are emerging, extending from within the plant and beginning to take shape. This difference in growth styles really highlights the unique characteristics of each strain, and I’m excited to see how they continue to evolve. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Training: LST and Defoliation This week, I’ve also focused heavily on training the plants using Low-Stress Training (LST) and some selective defoliation to optimize light exposure and encourage better growth. I applied LST more aggressively over the past few days, using clips to gently bend the stems of individual branches outward, almost to a 90-degree angle. This technique has helped the plants spread out horizontally, allowing more light to reach the inner and lower branches. I’ve been adjusting the clips nearly every day to refine the structure and ensure that the light penetrates deeper into the canopy. The goal is to encourage outward growth and create more space for the lower branches to thrive. In addition to LST, I began selectively removing leaves. I started with the first set of fan leaves, followed by leaves growing inward toward the plant’s center. These were either shading promising bud sites or simply not contributing to the plant’s energy needs. I’ve also removed the lower bud sites, which likely wouldn’t have developed into anything substantial. This way, the plants can focus their energy on the more promising, higher-up buds that are receiving better light. Throughout the defoliation process, I’ve been careful not to remove too many leaves at once. I’ve only taken off leaves that were either blocking key bud sites or were small and shaded, ensuring that the plant still has enough foliage to continue its healthy growth. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nutrients and Watering Routine There haven't been any changes in my nutrient schedule or the way I water the plants this week. I’m still using the same BioBizz nutrients at the recommended dosages with each watering, and the watering process itself remains unchanged. Each plant receives a consistent 1 liter of water every couple of days, and so far, the plants are responding well. However, based on some recommendations I’ve received, I’m planning to introduce CalMag from BioBizz into my watering routine over the course of the next week. This will help ensure that the plants have enough calcium and magnesium, which are essential for strong cell structure and nutrient uptake, especially as we move further into the flowering phase. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Personal Reflections and Lessons Learned As I progress through this grow, I’m realizing how much more there is to learn, especially when it comes to managing light exposure and training techniques. It’s been rewarding to see how the plants respond to LST and defoliation, but I’m still figuring out the perfect balance. Every small change seems to make a big difference, and I’m constantly amazed by how quickly these plants adapt. Being a beginner, this process has been both challenging and exciting, and I can’t wait to see how the flowering stage develops. This journey has been a humbling experience, reminding me that growing plants isn’t just about following steps, but also about observing and learning from the plants themselves. Every day brings new insights and challenges, and it’s incredibly rewarding to see these changes reflected in the health and growth of the plants. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Looking Ahead In the next week, I’ll continue to monitor the pre-flowering phase closely. I expect the water and nutrient demands to increase even more as the plants transition into full flowering, so I’m preparing to increase the watering amount to 1.2 liters per plant soon. I’ll also be keeping an eye on the structure of the plants, especially the differences between the Gorilla Cookies and Amnesia Zkittlez. I may begin defoliating some of the lower leaves to give the plants more room to breathe and allow light to penetrate deeper into the canopy. There’s a lot of excitement ahead as the flowering phase approaches, and I’m eager to see how the plants respond to these new stages of growth. Stay tuned for more updates, and feel free to drop any advice or questions in the comments—this journey is all about learning together!

These strains grew fast and vigorous during veg, especially Bubbles. But during flower Sundae batter took off. Buds were compact with sundae batter with heavy resin. Sweet nectar and gas notes. Bubbles is another compact but deeply sweet gas notes. Sticky buds. Tender card with her. She needs proper care with the feeding. Don’t over do it take breaks on fertilizer.

Possibly this is your last week with only water to eliminate excess mineral salts. The appearance of the buds is great, covered in resin and quite hard, almost like stone.Does anyone have any tips for making some live rosin?

Hey guys :-) All of them except the lemongrass already have their heads sticking out of their stone wool cubes :-) . I'll give the lemongrass a few more days to develop, otherwise I'll add fresh seeds again :-) . The ones that started to take root were repotted in 0.5 l pots with a mix of Canna bio and Canna coco. First they get it enough nutrients from the fresh soil before you start fertilizing with Green House Powder Feeding Bio. The repotted ones were also placed in the heated greenhouse with a hood 👍.

Premise was to see how "optimal" i can get my first ever Grow. After some Research i came up with the idea to build an Aeroponic System myself using Water Buckets and Venturi Injektors to provider proper aeration. Sadly Seedlings had to wait in EazyCubes cause some parts and Nutrients didnt arrive on time. System was fully operationable on Day 16. Atami Nutrients are inside the System since Day 24, Calmag has been added Day 28. Before that, some Tri-part Nutrient. Planning on switching to Plagron in the Long run, as well as adding Co2, a water chiller and a ~700W LED. Stats: - 5 30L Buckets, 4 Plants and 1 Reservoir - Recirculation happens through 90mm PVC pipes - 16000 l/h pump going through 4x 1" Venturi Injektors pulling around 700 liters of Air per hour - 1mx1mx2m Growtent - 250W The Jackson Nemesis LED Happy about any Questions and Suggestions!
