3DScrogged 🔧 Musical 🎧 Tao's Bella: Sequence of Unfolding Grace (scheme in week 6)

W13.D1(88) 🍂🔥💧🌱🌟 The tips of the leaves are starting to burn 🔥. In the drainage, TDS levels are between 1800 - 1900 💧. Given my unconventional 🌱 fertilization scheme, which aims to provide everything for passive absorption 🌟 (without the expenditure of ATP on active), and the lack of data on the actual condition of the soil 🌱, I will perform a small flush with pure spring water 💧 each evening 🌟. 🌱🕒⏫🌞📈 Today, I'm once again extending the daylight cycle 🌞 by 10 minutes ⏫. The total increase has now reached 30 minutes 🕒, and currently, we're thriving on a schedule of 14.5 hours on, 9.5 hours off 📈. W13.D2(89) 🌊🔮🌸🌿📈 Partial flushes 🌊immediately show their effect 🔮 - the scent of resin 🌿 and flowering 🌸 intensifies significantly 📈 W13.D3(90) 🍂📜🔁🌱🌿 Yesterday, I realized that almost no one scrolls down to what I consider fascinating content 🍂📜. Thus, I've decided to periodically repeat it 🔁. Today, I want to return to the source of growth and vitality of the plant 🌱🌿. 🌟🌱🍃🌿🌞 All energy in carbon-based life forms is produced through three mechanisms: cellular respiration, photosynthesis, and fermentation 🌟. For plants, only cellular respiration and photosynthesis are relevant 🌱🍃. Cellular respiration is the primary mechanism generating ATP (the universal cellular battery) 🌿. The fuel for this process is oxygen (from the air) and glucose 🌞. 🤔🌿🍃💡🔬 But where does glucose come from in plants? It originates from the air through the second process called photosynthesis 🤔🌿. During its two phases (dark and light), water and carbon dioxide are converted into glucose and pure oxygen in the chloroplasts of leaves through the action of light 💡🔬. 🌿🍂🏗️🌱🌟 Thus, glucose is then used both for cellular respiration and for growth (as building blocks) 🏗️. It can be confidently stated that plants derive their mass and energy directly from the air 🌱🌿. And that leaves are the source of life force 🍂. The more leaves that remain, the more glucose the plant can produce, meaning more nourishment and "building blocks for growth" 🌱🌟 W13.D4(91) 🛠️🌱💡📸👇 As I operate within the confines of a small, homemade 🛠️grow box illuminated by standard LED bulbs purchased from the local store (featuring light temperatures of 3000 and 6500 Kelvin), I have found the opportunity to strategically place four out of twelve light sources at the bottom corners of the box 🌱💡. 📸👀🍃☀️🌟 The photograph vividly captures how the lady 🍃 has smartly turned the top side of her leaves downwards, embracing the lights ☀️. This clever maneuver is all thanks to her innate knowledge that chloroplasts reside on the upper part of the leaves 🌟. 🌿🔍🌞👁️🎉 Realizing that plants can independently orient their leaves towards lower light sources was, for me, a revelation 🔍🌞. With these additional lights positioned below, it's possible to engage in photosynthesis parts of the plant that are usually not illuminated, like the usually lollipopped areas, thereby fostering a greater production of glucose 🎉👁️.
