Installed new ventilation (PK100-TC) Got more distance for the lamp and RH down

week 3 flower is going great. I increased my UVA lights to 8 hrs on. Gsc and Blueberry have decent bud-lets already on day 17. OG kush has preflowers. waiting on Blueberry muffin to show pre fowers should be soon. At the end of week 3 GSC and Blueberry are doing the best and starting to get more trichomes. Im waiting on OG kush And Blueberry Muffin to really get going!

Week 10, so from today I stopped watering the Gelato Cookie D'ohpe and on Saturday no more light as well. Sunday is harvest day finally. Not much changed, I raised up the water with 25ml so the Purple Punch gets 200ml 2 x a day. That's all, since last week I started giving 13 hours darkness and 11 hours light and from Monday will be 12/12 after I harvested the Gelato Cookie D'ohpe and I can use the tent only for her. Fertilization will happen on the same days. Sunday fun day, Gelato Cookie D'ohpe is harvested. Purple Punch left alone. From tomorrow I will switch the light schedule 12/12. End of the week Purple Punch is 43 cm.

Supports terpene/cannabinoid production by protecting cells during flower stress. - **Dose Evaluation**: 200 mg/L (~1.74 mM) is within the effective range (100-300 mg/L) from plant stress studies. Cannabis trials suggest it mitigates heat/light stress, enhancing resin quality. Good dose for autos in flower. - **Setria L-Glutathione (250 mg, 125 mg/L)**: - **Role**: Antioxidant; scavenges ROS, protects photosynthesis, and detoxifies heavy metals. Enhances yield and bud quality by reducing oxidative damage during flowering. - **Dose Evaluation**: 125 mg/L is safe and effective (100-300 mg/L in plant studies). Aligns with maize trials showing yield protection under stress. Well-suited for autos without risking buildup. - **L-Glycine (500 mg, 250 mg/L)**: - **Role**: Precursor for glutathione and proteins; detoxifies heavy metals, supports root health, and enhances nutrient uptake (e.g., Ca). Reduces toxicity in contaminated soils and boosts flower resilience. - **Dose Evaluation**: 250 mg/L is within the effective range (100-500 mg/L). Higher than your previous mix (100 mg/L), but still safe; supports GSH synthesis and complements glutathione. - **TMG (Trimethylglycine, 400 mg, 200 mg/L)**: - **Role**: Methyl donor and osmoprotectant; enhances heat/drought tolerance, membrane stability, and terpene gene expression. Supports bud density and aroma. - **Dose Evaluation**: 200 mg/L (~1.7 mM) matches plant study ranges (200-500 mg/L).

CHANGE: 🚨 INCREASE...(DONT FEEL LIKE SPLITTING THE CAPSULE OPEN) L-Glycine (1000 mg in 2L, 500 mg/L) 8/29 234am #### Combined Effects This mix is well-tailored for autoflower cannabis in the flowering phase, balancing low-N bloom nutrients with biostimulants to maximize bud quality and resilience: - **Bud Development and Yield**: Connoisseur Bloom’s P-K focus drives dense bud formation, while proline, glutathione, and TMG protect against flower-stage stresses (e.g., high light, heat), potentially increasing yield by 15-30% (e.g., 150-300 g/plant in hydro/coco). Glycine enhances nutrient uptake, supporting larger calyxes. - **Terpene and Cannabinoid Quality**: TMG and proline upregulate terpene synthesis (e.g., limonene, myrcene), enhancing aroma and resin. Glutathione reduces oxidative damage, preserving cannabinoid stability (THCA/CBDA). No EAA in this mix avoids N-driven potency reduction. - **Stress Resilience**: Glutathione and proline scavenge ROS, while TMG and glycine bolster osmotic and metal stress tolerance. This is critical for autoflowers, which are prone to stunting in flower under environmental swings. - **Nutrient Efficiency**: Glycine and TMG enhance uptake of Connoisseur’s chelated nutrients (e.g., Ca, Mg), reducing N needs by improving nitrogen use efficiency (NUE). This aligns with your goal of reducing N fertilizer in commercial farming. - **Microbial Support**: Glycine fosters beneficial microbes, synergizing with Connoisseur’s organics for root health in coco/soil."" 8/29 "What is the equation for amino acids?

Thank you for sharing the details of your foliar spray mix for your autoflower cannabis grow. You’re using a combination of **proline (400 mg)**, **Setria glutathione (250 mg)**, **L-glycine (1000 mg)**, **TMG (400 mg)**, and **L-glutamine (100 mg)** in a 2 L solution, applied as a foliar spray. This mix is amino acid-focused, aligning with your previous interest in essential amino acids and nutrient optimization for cannabis, as well as your questions about flushing agents and personal supplementation. I’ll evaluate the potential benefits, risks, and considerations of this foliar spray for your autoflower cannabis plants, focusing on how these compounds affect growth, stress resistance, and bud quality, particularly given the unique needs of autoflowers (e.g., shorter life cycle, sensitivity to nutrient stress). I’ll also address how this spray complements your earlier nutrient mix and provide practical recommendations. ### Breakdown of Your Foliar Spray Mix (2 L Solution) Let’s analyze each component, its concentration, and its role in cannabis cultivation when applied foliarly to autoflowers: 1. **Proline (400 mg in 2 L = 200 mg/L)**: - **Role**: Proline is an amino acid that acts as an osmoprotectant and antioxidant, helping plants manage stress (e.g., drought, high light, nutrient imbalances). - **Benefits for Autoflowers**: - Enhances stress resistance, crucial for autoflowers under intense indoor lighting or environmental fluctuations. - Supports pollen development and flowering, potentially increasing bud set during the short autoflower bloom phase (4–6 weeks). - Promotes cell wall strength, improving plant vigor and resilience. - **Considerations**: At 200 mg/L, this is a moderate dose, effective for stress mitigation without risking nutrient overload. Autoflowers are sensitive to overfeeding, so this is appropriate. 2. **Setria Glutathione (250 mg in 2 L = 125 mg/L)**: - **Role**: Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant tripeptide (glutamate, cysteine, glycine) that protects plant cells from oxidative stress caused by high light, heat, or nutrient imbalances. - **Benefits for Autoflowers**: - Reduces oxidative damage in leaves, preserving photosynthesis efficiency, which is critical for autoflowers’ rapid growth cycle. - Enhances stress tolerance, particularly under high-intensity lighting or CO₂ supplementation common in indoor grows. - May improve terpene and cannabinoid production by protecting metabolic pathways during flowering. - **Considerations**: Glutathione is not a standard foliar spray component, but at 125 mg/L, it’s a low, experimental dose. Limited research exists on its direct foliar application in cannabis, but it’s likely safe and may complement proline and glycine’s antioxidant effects. 3. **L-Glycine (1000 mg in 2 L = 500 mg/L)**: - **Role**: Glycine supports chlorophyll synthesis, protein production, and nutrient chelation, enhancing photosynthesis and growth. - **Benefits for Autoflowers**: - Boosts photosynthesis, leading to greener leaves and faster growth, critical for autoflowers’ short vegetative phase (2–4 weeks). - Chelates micronutrients (e.g., zinc, iron), improving foliar nutrient uptake, though it may reduce calcium/iron absorption (as noted in your earlier question). - Supports terpene synthesis, enhancing bud aroma and flavor. - **Considerations**: Your previous nutrient mix used 500 mg/L glycine, and you asked about increasing to 500 mg/L (possibly a typo or volume confusion). At 500 mg/L, this is a high but effective dose for foliar application, though excessive nitrogen from glycine could delay flowering if overused in late bloom. 4. **TMG (Trimethylglycine/Betaine, 400 mg in 2 L = 200 mg/L)**: - **Role**: TMG is an osmoprotectant and methyl donor, enhancing stress tolerance and metabolic efficiency. - **Benefits for Autoflowers**: - Protects against environmental stress (e.g., high EC, temperature swings), improving resilience in hydroponic or indoor setups. - Supports photosynthesis and nutrient uptake by stabilizing proteins and membranes, beneficial for autoflowers’ rapid growth. - May enhance terpene production indirectly via metabolic support. - **Considerations**: At 200 mg/L, this is a moderate dose, lower than your previous 500 mg/L, reducing the risk of nutrient burn while maintaining stress protection. 5. **L-Glutamine (100 mg in 2 L = 50 mg/L)**: - **Role**: Glutamine is a nitrogen transport amino acid, supporting chlorophyll synthesis and photosynthesis. - **Benefits for Autoflowers**: - Promotes lush vegetative growth and greener leaves, ideal for the early stages of autoflowers. - Enhances stress tolerance via glutathione production (synergizing with Setria glutathione). - Supports bud development by providing nitrogen for protein synthesis. - **Considerations**: At 50 mg/L, this is a low dose (down from 250 mg/L in your previous mix), minimizing nitrogen overload risks in flowering autoflowers, which are sensitive to excess nitrogen. ### Overall Effects on Autoflower Cannabis - **Vegetative Phase (Weeks 1–3)**: - This foliar spray is well-suited for the vegetative stage of autoflowers, as glycine, glutamine, and proline promote photosynthesis, leaf growth, and stress resistance. TMG and glutathione further protect against oxidative stress from high-intensity lighting or nutrient fluctuations, common in indoor grows. - The low nitrogen content (primarily from glycine and glutamine) supports vigorous growth without overwhelming autoflowers, which require less nitrogen than photoperiod strains. - **Flowering Phase (Weeks 4–8/10)**: - The spray supports terpene production (via glycine, proline) and stress resilience, enhancing bud quality and aroma. Glutathione’s antioxidant properties may protect cannabinoid synthesis pathways. - However, glycine (500 mg/L) and glutamine contribute nitrogen, which could delay bud ripening or reduce THC if overused in late flowering. Previous research (from your amino acid question) showed amino acids can reduce THCA, so caution is needed after week 5–6. - Autoflowers have a short flowering window, so foliar sprays should be minimized or stopped in the last 2–3 weeks to avoid nutrient residues affecting bud flavor. - **Stress Resistance**: - The combination of proline, TMG, and glutathione is highly effective for protecting autoflowers from stress (e.g., high EC, heat, light intensity), which is critical given their sensitivity to environmental changes. - Foliar application ensures rapid uptake, bypassing root zone issues in hydroponics or coco. ### Synergy with Your Previous Nutrient Mix Your earlier nutrient mix (Connoisseur A/B, NO precursors, amino acids, methylene blue) was root-fed and nitrogen-heavy, complementing this foliar spray: - **Complementary Effects**: The foliar spray’s focus on stress protection (proline, TMG, glutathione) and photosynthesis (glycine, glutamine) enhances the root mix’s growth and bloom support. Foliar application targets leaf health, while root feeding supports overall nutrient uptake. - **Methylene Blue Omission**: Excluding methylene blue from the foliar spray is wise, as its effects on plants are unproven, and foliar application risks leaf staining or phytotoxicity. Your root mix’s low dose (2.5 mg/L) is experimental but safer. - **Nitrogen Balance**: The foliar spray’s lower nitrogen (glutamine 50 mg/L, glycine 500 mg/L) balances the root mix’s high nitrogen (glutamine 250 mg/L, glycine 500 mg/L, EAAs, L-arginine), reducing the risk of overfeeding autoflowers. ### Potential Risks and Considerations 1. **Nitrogen Overload in Flowering**: - **Risk**: Glycine (500 mg/L) and glutamine (50 mg/L) contribute nitrogen, which could delay flowering or produce leafy buds in autoflowers if applied heavily in late bloom (weeks 6–8). - **Solution**: Limit foliar sprays to once weekly in early flowering (weeks 4–5) and stop by week 6–7 to focus on bud ripening. Use only water or a flushing agent (e.g., FloraKleen, as you preferred) in the final 1–2 weeks. 2. **Nutrient Imbalance**: - **Risk**: Amino acids (glycine, glutamine) can chelate micronutrients, potentially reducing calcium and iron uptake (as noted in your earlier question). Autoflowers are prone to deficiencies due to their fast cycle. - **Solution**: Monitor for calcium/iron deficiency (yellowing leaves, interveinal chlorosis) and add a foliar calmag supplement (e.g., 1 mL/L CaliMagic) if needed. Your root-fed Connoisseur A/B provides some micronutrients, but foliar sprays bypass roots. 3. **Glutathione’s Experimental Nature**: - **Risk**: Glutathione is not a standard foliar nutrient for cannabis, and its efficacy at 125 mg/L is unstudied. It’s likely safe but may not provide significant benefits beyond proline and TMG’s stress protection. - **Solution**: Treat glutathione as an experiment. Compare sprayed plants to unsprayed ones for 2 weeks to assess improvements in leaf color or bud quality. Discontinue if no clear benefit. 4. **Overapplication of Foliar Spray**: - **Risk**: Foliar sprays can cause leaf burn or mold if applied too frequently or in high humidity. Autoflowers’ dense canopies increase mold risk in late flowering. - **Solution**: Apply early in the day, ensure good airflow, and spray only 1–2 times per week. Use a fine mist sprayer to avoid drenching leaves. 5. **EC and pH**: - **Risk**: The spray’s low concentrations (total ~1.15 g/L) are unlikely to spike EC, but combined with your root mix, monitor overall nutrient strength. The pH (previously 5.9) is suitable for foliar uptake (5.5–6.5). - **Solution**: Test spray pH (aim for 5.8–6.2) and root zone EC (1.0–1.5 mS/cm in veg, 1.5–2.0 mS/cm in bloom) to avoid overfeeding. ### Recommendations for Your Autoflower Grow 1. **Application Timing**: - **Vegetative Phase (Weeks 1–3)**: Apply the foliar spray 1–2 times weekly to boost photosynthesis and stress resistance. The mix is ideal for autoflowers’ rapid vegetative growth. - **Early Flowering (Weeks 4–5)**: Reduce to once weekly to support terpene production and bud set, but avoid excessive nitrogen from glycine/glutamine. - **Late Flowering (Weeks 6–8/10)**: Stop foliar sprays by week 6–7 to prevent nitrogen residues and ensure clean buds. Use FloraKleen (5–10 mL/gal) for a final flush (1–2 weeks) to clear nutrients, as you preferred over SledgeHammer. 2. **Monitor Plant Response**: - Watch for signs of nitrogen excess (dark green leaves, clawing, delayed flowering) or deficiencies (yellowing, spotting). Autoflowers are sensitive, so adjust spray frequency if issues arise. - Compare glutathione-sprayed plants to controls to assess its value. If no noticeable improvement (e.g., greener leaves, better buds), simplify the mix to proline, glycine, and TMG. 3. **Complementary Root Feeding**: - Continue your root mix (Connoisseur A/B, NO precursors, etc.) but reduce nitrogen-heavy components (e.g., glutamine, EAAs) in flowering to balance the foliar spray’s glycine/glutamine. Aim for 2–3 mL/L Connoisseur A/B in bloom. - Add a bloom booster (e.g., Advanced Nutrients Bud Candy, 1–2 mL/L) in weeks 4–6 to enhance terpenes and sugars without excess nitrogen. 4. **Foliar Spray Best Practices**: - Spray early in the light cycle to allow drying and prevent mold. - Use a fine mist to lightly coat leaves, avoiding runoff. - Ensure pH is 5.8–6.2 for optimal foliar uptake. - Maintain good airflow and humidity below 50% in flowering to prevent bud rot. 5. **Glutathione Experiment**: - Since glutathione is unproven in cannabis, apply to a few plants and track differences in growth, leaf health, or bud quality. If benefits are unclear after 2 weeks, consider excluding it to reduce costs. ### Conclusion Your amino acid-focused foliar spray (proline 200 mg/L, glutathione 125 mg/L, glycine 500 mg/L, TMG 200 mg/L, glutamine 50 mg/L) is well-suited for autoflower cannabis, particularly in the vegetative phase, where it boosts photosynthesis, stress resistance, and growth. In early flowering, it supports terpene production and bud set, but caution is needed in late flowering to avoid nitrogen buildup from glycine and glutamine, which could reduce THC or affect bud flavor. Glutathione is an experimental addition, likely safe but unproven, so monitor its effects. Pair this spray with your root-fed nutrient mix, using FloraKleen for flushing, and adjust based on plant response to optimize your autoflower yield and quality. If you can share more details (e.g., autoflower strain, growth stage, hydroponic vs. coco, lighting setup), I can refine the recommendations further. I can also search X or recent studies for grower experiences with foliar amino acids or glutathione in cannabis.

Thanks for the update! It’s great that you’re adding **General Hydroponics FloraNectar FruitnFusion Sweetener** to your root-fed nutrient mix for your autoflower cannabis grow, especially since you don’t have **Advanced Nutrients Bud Candy** but want to incorporate the sugar-based bloom booster I recommended (1–2 mL/L) to enhance terpenes and sugars. Your current mix includes **Advanced Nutrients Connoisseur Bloom A & B (1.5 mL/L each, total 3 mL/L)**, **proline (200 mg/L)**, **Setria glutathione (125 mg/L)**, **L-glycine (500 mg/L)**, **TMG (200 mg/L)**, and **L-glutamine (50 mg/L)** in a 2 L solution, and you’ve noted success with a similar foliar spray. I’ll evaluate the addition of **FloraNectar FruitnFusion** at 1–2 mL/L to this mix, focusing on its benefits, potential risks, and considerations for your autoflower grow, particularly in the context of flowering (since you’re using Connoisseur Bloom A & B). I’ll also ensure compatibility with your mix and provide tailored recommendations, factoring in your preference for **FloraKleen** for flushing and the autoflowers’ sensitivity. ### Overview of FloraNectar FruitnFusion Sweetener - **Composition**: FloraNectar FruitnFusion is a carbohydrate-based supplement containing cane sugar, molasses, and malt syrup, with added potassium, magnesium, and natural fruit flavorings. It’s designed to enhance sweetness, aroma, and flavor in buds by providing energy for secondary metabolite production (e.g., terpenes, flavonoids). - **Purpose**: Boosts terpene and sugar content in flowers, improves bud flavor, and supports microbial activity in soil (though less relevant in hydroponics/coco). It’s marketed for hydroponic and soil grows, compatible with General Hydroponics’ nutrient lines. - **Recommended Dose**: General Hydroponics suggests 1–2 tsp/gal (1.3–2.6 mL/L) during flowering, aligning with my prior recommendation of 1–2 mL/L (based on Bud Candy’s dosing). Your choice of 1–2 mL/L is appropriate. ### Effects of Adding FloraNectar FruitnFusion (1–2 mL/L) to Your Mix #### Benefits for Autoflower Cannabis 1. **Enhanced Terpene and Flavor Profile**: - The sugars (cane sugar, molasses, malt syrup) provide an energy source for terpene and flavonoid synthesis, improving bud aroma and flavor. This complements the terpene-boosting effects of glycine, proline, and glutamine in your mix, which may increase monoterpenes like limonene and β-myrcene (as noted in your earlier amino acid question). - Autoflowers have a short flowering phase (4–6 weeks), so FloraNectar’s sugars can maximize terpene production in weeks 4–6, enhancing bud quality and market appeal. 2. **Energy for Bud Development**: - Sugars fuel metabolic processes during flowering, supporting resin production and bud density. This synergizes with Connoisseur Bloom B’s high phosphorus/potassium, which drives bud growth. - May offset potential THC reduction from amino acids (e.g., glycine, glutamine), as noted in prior research, by boosting secondary metabolites. 3. **Nutrient Support**: - FloraNectar provides small amounts of potassium and magnesium, which support flower development and chlorophyll function. This complements Connoisseur A/B’s micronutrients, helping prevent deficiencies (e.g., magnesium-related chlorosis) that amino acids like glycine may exacerbate by chelating calcium/iron. 4. **Synergy with Your Mix**: - **Amino Acids (Glycine, Proline, Glutamine)**: These enhance photosynthesis and terpene production, and FloraNectar’s sugars provide additional energy to amplify these effects, potentially leading to sweeter, more aromatic buds. - **Glutathione and TMG**: These support stress resistance, protecting plants during the energy-intensive flowering phase. FloraNectar’s sugars may enhance microbial activity (in soil) or metabolic efficiency (in hydroponics), complementing TMG’s osmoprotectant role. - **Connoisseur A/B**: The nutrient base provides NPK and micronutrients, while FloraNectar adds a carbohydrate boost without excessive nitrogen, ideal for autoflowers in bloom. #### Potential Risks and Considerations 1. **EC Spike**: - **Risk**: FloraNectar’s sugars and minerals (potassium, magnesium) increase electrical conductivity (EC), especially when added to your nutrient-heavy mix (Connoisseur A/B 3 mL/L + amino acids ~1.15 g/L). Autoflowers are sensitive to high EC, risking nutrient burn (tip browning, leaf curl). - **Solution**: Start with 1 mL/L FloraNectar to keep EC in the safe range (1.5–2.0 mS/cm for flowering autoflowers). Measure EC after mixing and dilute (e.g., reduce Connoisseur to 1 mL/L each) if above 2.0 mS/cm. 2. **Nitrogen Overload in Late Flowering**: - **Risk**: Your mix’s glycine (500 mg/L) and glutamine (50 mg/L) contribute nitrogen, which could delay bud ripening or reduce THC in late flowering (weeks 6–8), as amino acids may lower THCA (per prior research). FloraNectar’s low nitrogen content won’t exacerbate this, but the overall mix requires caution. - **Solution**: Reduce glycine to 250 mg/L and glutamine to 25 mg/L in weeks 6–8, and stop all nutrients (including FloraNectar) for the final 1–2 weeks, using FloraKleen (5–10 mL/gal) for flushing. 3. **Calcium/Iron Deficiencyល: **Risk**: Amino acids (glycine, glutamine) may chelate calcium and iron, potentially causing deficiencies. FloraNectar’s magnesium and potassium help, but calcium uptake could still be limited. - **Solution**: Monitor for deficiency signs (yellowing, interveinal chlorosis) and add a calmag supplement (e.g., 1 mL/L CaliMagic) if needed, especially in hydroponics/coco. 4. **Glutathione’s Experimental Role**: - **Risk**: Glutathione (125 mg/L) is unproven for root feeding, though your foliar spray’s success suggests benefits. Its root uptake efficacy is unclear. - **Solution**: Continue monitoring plant response (e.g., bud size, leaf health) and compare to untreated plants. Discontinue if no additional improvement is seen. 5. **Sugar-Related Microbial Issues**: - **Risk**: In soil or high-humidity hydroponic systems, FloraNectar’s sugars could promote unwanted microbial growth (e.g., root zone bacteria) if over-applied. - **Solution**: Ensure proper aeration and avoid overwatering. Use FloraKleen periodically (5 mL/gal every 3–4 weeks) to maintain a clean root zone. ### Recommendations for Your Autoflower Grow 1. **FloraNectar Dosing**: - Start with **1 mL/L** (2 mL in 2 L) to avoid EC spikes, especially with Connoisseur A/B and amino acids. Increase to 2 mL/L in weeks 4–5 if plants tolerate it (no burn signs) and EC remains below 2.0 mS/cm. - Apply during early to mid-flowering (weeks 4–6) to maximize terpene and sugar production, stopping by week 7–8 for flushing. 2. **Growth Stage Adjustments**: - **Vegetative Phase (Weeks 1–3)**: Your mix is suitable, but FloraNectar is less critical here, as sugars are most beneficial in flowering. Consider reserving it for bloom to save costs. - **Early Flowering (Weeks 4–5)**: Use the full mix with FloraNectar (1–2 mL/L) 2–3 times weekly to boost bud development and aroma. - **Late Flowering (Weeks 6–8/10)**: Reduce glycine (250 mg/L), glutamine (25 mg/L), and FloraNectar (0.5–1 mL/L) to minimize nitrogen and sugar residues. Flush with FloraKleen (5–10 mL/gal) for 1–2 weeks with plain water (pH 5.8–6.2) to ensure clean buds. 3. **EC and pH Monitoring**: - Check EC (1.5–2.0 mS/cm in bloom) after adding FloraNectar, as sugars and minerals may increase it. Adjust Connoisseur A/B or amino acids if EC exceeds 2.0 mS/cm. - Maintain pH at 5.8–6.2 for hydroponic/coco root uptake, consistent with your prior 5.9 pH. 4. **Complementary Practices**: - **Calmag Addition**: If calcium/iron deficiencies appear (yellowing, spotting), add 1 mL/L CaliMagic to the mix or as a foliar spray to counter amino acid chelation. - **Foliar Spray Integration**: Continue your amino acid foliar spray (1x weekly) alongside root feeding to maximize stress resistance and terpene production, but stop foliar sprays by week 6 to avoid residues. - **Flushing**: Use FloraKleen (5 mL/gal) every 3–4 weeks and for the final flush (10 mL/gal for 2–3 days, then water) to clear sugars, amino acids, and salts, ensuring smooth-burning buds. 5. **Glutathione Evaluation**: - Given your foliar spray’s success, glutathione may be contributing to plant health. Compare buds from plants watered with and without glutathione to assess its impact on potency or yield. If no clear benefit after 2 weeks, simplify the mix to reduce costs. ### Conclusion Adding **General Hydroponics FloraNectar FruitnFusion** at 1–2 mL/L to your root-fed mix (Connoisseur A/B 3 mL/L, proline 200 mg/L, glutathione 125 mg/L, glycine 500 mg/L, TMG 200 mg/L, glutamine 50 mg/L) is an excellent choice for your autoflower cannabis grow, enhancing terpene production, bud flavor, and flowering energy. It complements the amino acids’ stress resistance and terpene-boosting effects, synergizing with Connoisseur A/B’s bloom nutrients. Start with 1 mL/L to avoid EC spikes, reduce nitrogen-heavy components (glycine, glutamine) in late flowering (weeks 6–8), and flush with FloraKleen to ensure clean buds. Monitor for nutrient imbalances and evaluate glutathione’s role. If you provide details (e.g., strain, growth stage, hydroponic vs. coco), I can further tailor the schedule. I can also search X for grower feedback on FloraNectar with amino acids. Let me know how to proceed!""🚨. 8/3341 AM going to start watering with the amino mix from yesterday, including the sugar💦💦💦🌿🌿🌿. 8/31 12:14PM WOW are they doing great, I think the Amino Spray really did a nice job!! 8/31 854PM. I woke up again drenched in sweat feeling like death, so we are back to normal!!! It only takes a single light to destroy the beauty of the darkness, dont be that light. 9pm put the plants in different tents. OGT, CA 1 & 2 are mid flower the others are just starting, I will top SCA today and replant the top half, STRESS TEST. Mixing Aminos for spraying today, also to feed the top of SCA IF it is successful??!!!

Week 13 for Gigi! Fifth week of flower: Buds are fattening up and trichomes are becoming milky...Guys if you try to grow this genetic, keep in mind this thing: use a good filter! This plant smells a lot and amazingly good 👍 Day 86: Watered properly with all the nutrients. Rh is about 50/55% and temperature 25°C. Day 90: Watered again with half the nutrients. She drinks a lot. Guys, now it's time to talk about the disaster happened with the lamp 3 weeks ago. The lamp crashed on the main branches snapping them...but Gigi simply doesn't give a s*** about it and flowered. See ya next week and don't forget to love your plant!

Love my grape ape really great dna..

16 agosto - harvest day. Mais uma gorilla que chega até ao fim. Foi um grow fácil e descontraído que resultou nuns buds pesados e cheirosos. Já tive um pheno parecido com este e era muito bom como sempre é esta strain. A secagem deve durar 7 dias

This Will be wrapping up the purple Queen and blue dream grow leaves on the purple Queen are starting to really color out as So when it's at the end of its life . Just RO water ph down to 6.8 until you get a PPM of 300. I'm going for Around about 150 100.

12-13 Friday the 13th before Christmas. Kinda neat. Well lets see how I set up this ride. Watered around 2.5 l. Weird, to full saturate my pot, without run off AND to feel the bottom of the pot wet-ish. Anyways. 5ml cal/mag, 1 ml drops of balance, 3/8 tsp-ish recharge and 1 ounce EM1. Hopefully coasting and watching them swell. Scc still getting taller. Sheesh 12-15 Big plain water, I strike again 😂 Saw some yellow tips, at first I figured hungry, makes sense, top dress due. Let check the run off and see where we stand. NOPE, slight burn. GD!! Ppm 1580 ph 6.6. so now they both around 900 ppm. Bulk time. Coulda waited a week and then top dress. Maybe next time I can think and check my run off before I top dress. Even if youre not supposed to in organic. Ok rambling. 😁😂🤘 .

BB2 and GG2 showing widely scattered amber trichomes on the main cola mostly. Neither tent has a strong smell yet. Not the most fragrant strains, from what I'm reading. Learning to use my USB microscope for trichome pictures. Difficult to hold steady for good pics in the tent. Don't want to pull pots out anymore. Tips for better trichomes pics would be greatly appreciated!

✌️🎃 Thank you for checking my cultivation. 🌿 Starting LST. She looks good, but run-off indicated she’s eating little.

Happy week for this plant.. she got so bushy i had to give her heavy trim shave. Speed recovery and she will bounce back and like she neva had a TRIM

I guess I didn’t take pics for a full month! These pics were taken July 28th, 4 weeks after the last photos. Fed rainwater once every other day and used 1 tsp/gal recharge once a week with a small amount of liquid seaweed.

Day 50: 150ml water per day, 18/6 light schedule, approx 50% humidity, fertilization on Monday, Wednesday and Friday happens with BioBizz family and on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday with bat guano and Epsom salt. They like the new Marshydro 600W. Their height are different between 15 and 45 cm. Day 55: This tent is crazy :D All of them okay, especially Critical Orange Punch is a monster above all. Sour Stomper is cute, and the rest of them just keep flowering. Hopefully their buds will be nice thick :)

Both plants grow with a nice healthy green color and develop well. Barbarian (=AK-47 x Barabara Bud) plant # 2 is a little taller than plant #1 at this time, but both show nice side-branching and overall growth. They love the Advanced Nutrients feeding schedule and are well protected inside the Secret Jardin grow tent.

Una delle mie prime piantine fatta da un seme regalato 😍

Germinated directly in root riot cubes and 100% success. I’ll be transplanting these into 25L autopots on 30/08/21 and hand feeding for 2 weeks before the resivour is switched on. I have used 0.5ml per litre of emerald harvest a&b for the first 2 weeks of the seedlings and will be moving upto 1ml per litre when transplanting.

Hello people week # 8 at the start. I fertilize 3 more times this week with a liter of water (6.5ph). Hope this week she finally develops the colas a bit. I had a little mildew problem last week, but defoliation resolved the issue. It fits perfectly into the season from the look hope dan to get good gifts. Therefore I will start my flush in week 9. I'm curious what will happen in the next few weeks. Thank you for your time. A fox does what a fuschs has to do. 🦊🦊💚💛❤️
