I am feeding with tps one and CalMag oac one time, then it’s back to regular tap water (well water) that comes at 8.5 pH with 156ppm of tds. The feed was approx a pH of 6.5. More importantly is the consistent soil pH which appears fixed at 6.8 I know it’s lazy! However…. I have noticed doing this to reveal to me that the soil pH is very stubborn and not easily changed by the pH of the water alone. Stuff in the water can definitely have an impact. But still, most feed waters I use don’t change the soil ph. I do make sure the pH is within a healthy range for soil, something between 6 and 7 I figure is ideal. I’ve found if there is enough lime in the mix, and as long as I don’t over feed soluble nutes, then the soil pH appears stable and fixed. With enough lime in the mix, I can ultimately arrest the soil pH at 7. It’s really cool. I thought adding too much lime would give me something potentially alkaline, and maybe it will. But I’ve added lots of lime before and still haven’t gotten past 7 pH. Maybe I didn’t add enough to go further? Nevertheless I’m not interested in going past 7. I haven’t seen any issues with the speed of growth watering with 8.5 tap water, surprisingly. As I’ve said the soil pH would read 6.8 before and immediately after watering with the 8.5 tap. So….. I’m thinking the stability of the soil pH is a positive indication that the microbes are not being subjected to pH shifts, or at least nothing substantial. I mean, at the end of the day when things are looking good, I feel like I must have something right.

This week started strong. Some small concerns due to small orange spots appearing on fan leaves which on researching indicates a calcium/magnesium deficiency. Will add a small amount of cal mag to their next feed

Growbox Diary – Week 1: Banana Purple Punch Auto (FastBuds) First entry! I just put a Banana Purple Punch Auto seed in water. This is just a test to see how a plant reacts to slightly higher-than-ideal temperatures. I’ll be planting two more FastBuds seeds in winter, when the room is cooler (around 21–22°C) and the growbox can be managed more optimally. The growbox is 60×50×104 cm, enough space for two autoflowers in 6.5 L pots with some LST. Lighting is the Spider Farmer SF-1000D LED on adjustable pulleys, high enough to leave space for airflow, but low enough so the plant will get plenty of light. Ventilation: the 130 m³/h exhaust actively removes hot and humid air directly out the window. Air comes in passively from the room. Inside the box, a USB clip fan is running at maximum, pointing toward the extractor, to avoid stagnant zones. During a 1–2 hour test without plants, with the lamp on and fan at max, the box temperature reached 32°C. This is manageable for a test but higher than ideal for real growth. The room itself, with AC on, stays around 26°C. Without AC, in late August, it could easily rise to 28–28.5°C, creating a very stressful environment for the plant. So, the AC is necessary—for me and for stability of the setup. Substrate is BioBizz Light Mix with 25% perlite, perfect for aeration and drainage. Nutrients are Fish-Mix, Grow, and Bloom, with pH around 6.2–6.5. Dosages will be gradual to avoid stress. In a few days, this seedling will be transferred to the 60×60×180 cm growbox, where the temperature will drop a few degrees, allowing for better management and growth conditions. For now, this little seed is just a test—let’s see how she handles the slightly hot environment. Excited to watch her grow and keep this diary updated!

The final Week, before harvest! She has some massive towering buds! 2.5 gallons of water is lasting this plant 5-6 days before drying out, and ready for more.. She was harvested instead of being watered!

Venga familia que ya viene la cosecha de estas finta F1 de ZamnesiaSeeds, que ganas que tenia ya de darles machetazo, me estaban dando muchos quebraderos de cabeza. Las flores no son para nada llamativas, una variedad más cruzada con rudelaris, que para mi gusto es perder el tiempo y el dinero invertido en cultivar cosas así… no merece la pena en interior, el ratio de gramo watio se me quedó en 0.5 , de los no peores resultados que tuve en los últimos 5 años. a sido una genética con la que no disfruté nada cultivarla, es complicada, es bastante sensible. Las plantas en sí se quedaron enanas y para nada fue lo que esperaba, me recordaron a las autos que plantaba en el 2012… Agrobeta: https://www.agrobeta.com/agrobetatiendaonline/36-abonos-canamo Mars hydro: Code discount: EL420 https://www.mars-hydro.com/ Hasta aquí es todo , espero que lo disfrutéis, buenos humos 💨💨.

Simply put I am so very pleased with the way this plant has performed my only worry is how to properly dry and cure this magnificent specimen

30. Dezember 2025 das war eine gute woche für den " obstsalat" die mödels haben sich odentlich gestreckt, ich habe in wenig supercropping betrieben ansonsten wasser licht und liebe. ich habe meist ein wenig probleme clone in " form" zu bringen- also irgendwie wachen die immer ziemlich wild . im gegensatz zu Pflanzen aus seeds. ich sträube mich da ein wenig zuviel abzuschneiden--- oder sie in form zu trimmen Folgende strains: 😻Strawberry Bubbles ( bloom seed Co) 😻Strawberry Guava ( boom seed Co) 😻#1 Stunna F2 ( relentless genetics) 😀Bens+ Cherry ( Nine Weeks harvest und ich habe 2 Samen vor noch längere Zeit in die Erde gesteckt 😁Supafreak von Humboldt 😬und Stoopid Froot auch von Humboldt Vielen dank dafür ( Oim, El schifo, und chuck)

D-77 : Girls are going well and they are beautyful but, they are growing alot less than expected. They are 30cm behind they should be. I hope it is because of all the effort I made on the mainlining process at the beginning....

Day 51 12/12 buds are swelling slowly but surely could have slowed down due to ph fluctuations as my ph pen is not functioning properly so had no other option but to go back to advanced ph perfect nutes for timr being until my new ph pen arrives but will start flush sometime next week

Not a great week lost one due to being away for 4 days total dehydration think missed her when watering before I left 3 looked bad but saved 2 of the 3 lesson learned ☹️

Starting 2^ week vegetation

The Cookie Girls are doing great 😊 Overall, I’m very pleased with the results so far. At day 8 I stopped tucking the branches and allowed them to grow up. In hindsight, I probably should have kept going for another couple of days. They continued to stretch rapidly all the way up to date 12 or so. At day 10 I cleaned up some of the small bud sites and leaves that were below the 1st trellis. These sites do not get enough light to make anything good, and take away energy from the main tops as they grow and compete. At day 12 I decided to add a second trellis net to provide support to the tops that came up so fast. They seem to have stopped their main stretch faze, and are looking happy and healthy now. I’ve continued my water, water, feed schedule and have not seen any cause for concern. The girls are taking a little over a gallon of water every 72 hours at this point. Humidity is being controlled automatically with my in-line fan and humidifier. RH is set to 57% and temps hover between 77-80 degrees with lights on, and about 70-72 with light off thanks to my furnace being back on for the cooler temps. The 2x4 5 gallon girl is doing great as well. 😊During the stretch, while I tucked, I snapped more than a couple of tops off, but the plant continues to thrive. She is going to have some great bud, the branch structure is nicely developed with tight node spacing. I’ve been plucking off all the lower growth, and tucking leaves as they block bud sites. Will be doing a defoliation next week. Happy Gardening 🇨🇦👊❤️

Yesterday the second Sweet and Sour and Blackberry gum have been harvested on day 78. The first SNS finished around day 70. The cheesy needs a few more days but it's super chunky.

Per fortuna sono riuscito a tornare in tempo e le mie piante stanno bene! Non ho potuto monitorare per niente e mi sono affidato alle poche indicazioni che avevo lasciato e non posso lamentarmi…in questa settimana i fiori sono cresciuti e le piante hanno raggiunto la loro altezza massima, alcune stanno già scaricando le riserve di nutrienti e alcune foglie sono diventate gialle, vedrò se aggiungere un ultima volta il Top Dress di Dogma Organics per dare loro supporto per le ultime settimane…per ora sono super soddisfatto sia delle genetiche di Fast Buds che del super soil di Dogma Organics..è tutto così semplice ed efficace per queste ragazze e il risultato lo vedi già dalla crescita vegetativa, le piante hanno solo bisogno della tua attenzione per il ciclo asciutto/ bagnato ed il resto andrà bene sicuro!!!

Wk 5 was Steady Away, Explosive growth starting, Transplanted one from aero to coco and added Began the Scrog As you may have noticed, I Expanded the garden to give the coco girls some more room. The Dawg in the aero wasn't taking well at all, she hadn't really had a good innings from the beginning. I transplanted her into the coco and Fed her very week nutes..
