Nice symmetry on the last pics. Looks like it could be AI?
 
Calling out that those Royal Queen packs are hitting hard for the price is useful context for anyone watching from the sidelines. There's constant debate about budget friendly European banks, but consistent reports of strong and stable genetics are what really matter for planning future runs.

From tracking community feedback for VueLeaf, Royal Queen Seeds often lands in the practical middle ground. They're not always the most hyped name in the room, yet growers regularly report solid potency, acceptable uniformity and reasonable pricing, especially on a few of the flagship lines. Your recommendation of Tyson Punch Pie and Special Queen sits right in that pattern of dependable workhorse cultivars.

If you want your diary to be genuinely helpful for the next person considering these strains, the details that make a difference are things like flowering time from flip to chop, yield compared to other cultivars in the same room, how they react to heavier feeding or light, and whether you see any intersex issues.

I'm curious how the Grape Ape is behaving so far in your environment. Are you seeing a more compact, chunky structure or are they stretching more than you expected?

About to flip to flower in the next couple of days. I bet all 3 fill my 2x4. They will stretch once I flip the light time. I will keep posting pics every couple days or so
 
Been flipped to flower. The last watering feeding i give them it didn't siphon and now it is set to run every 2 hrs for 1 minute at a time. I hope thats enough might up that by a couple minutes. Added some of the bloom part along with the rest of the nutes to my reservoir. Ppm was between 550 and 555. PH was 5.9. Wish me luck

Hopefully @Florida_Mike get you some knowledge and have you growing some 🔥
Put a 1/4" 90 in the hose above the high water level in reservoir pointed down. This will shoot a small jet of water when the pump is on, and suck air when pump shuts off, breaking the siphon. Keep in mind, water already in hose will still drain in both directions from the apex and must be accounted for when determining pump times. Hope it helps...

edit: The red arrow and horizontal line denotes how far it will siphon down to without an air break or anti-siphon valve that costs $40 and relies on springs and diaphragms 🤜👍

U the man mike get his ass on the right track
 
Im watering/feeding starting at 10 am when lights come on.
Those are stunning!
Absolutely amazing job!
What was your setup, schedule etc for these?
It's a vivosun auto watering system from Amazon. It is now running form 10 am to 8 pm every other hr for 10 mins at a time. Just washed out my reservoir this evening and got 4 more gallons ready to water/feed
 
Thought i would snap a couple pictures after the watering/feeding with i do believe the right amount of nutes this time. They have perked up some

Just thought I would post a Pic. Got a new tool to measure out nutes. It's a meat injector. It should be alot better than using a 1 ml syringe 800,000 times. Need to slide my camera up it looks like
