Set up a drip feeding system. Timed to keep the coco wet.

We back with some buckets! Time to fire up the pumps and get this show on the road. If you haven't seen sugar cane then you need to crawl out from under the rock you're hiding in. Soaked this beautiful little gem of a bean in some water until it cracked then threw it into the bucket with 100% perlite. Started them on a low dose of maxigro on day 3. Doing these diy Dutch Bucket style as always. Going to be running 8 in house genetics strains on the system with constant 24 hour a day irrigation. Not much exciting going on yet, but with a little luck that may change pretty soon.

Anche questa Ayahuasca purple sta venendo su bene... La piccola talea che ho messo in terra a fianco alla pianta,ha attaccato al primo colpo senza fare nulla di speciale. (Senza radicante ne altro,)😋😂💪✌️.... Da questa settimana ha iniziato a fare un profumo delizioso...i fiori li sento già belli duri,compatti...non ho più trovato nessun nannars,ne fiori maschi completi...bene bene piantine mie belle..seguite così e datemi una buona terapia...🕉️ Om namah shivaya

Lo mismo que Haribo, tuve retrasos en el crecimiento ,carencias de nitrógeno, la humedad estaba relativamente alta las primeras semanas de floración … un desastre y aun así la calidad de las flores no defrauda. Lastima lo del Foco a ver si conseguimos solucionarlo ya, porque así la producción es mínima.

🌿 **Moby Dick Auto Grow Week 9 Update: Harvest Time Approaches!** 🌱 Greetings, fellow growers! It's time for an exhilarating update on the progress of our Moby Dick Auto adventure as we hit Week 9 of the grow cycle. With excitement mounting and buds maturing, let's delve into the latest developments: 🌟 **Abundant Bud Growth**: At Week 9, our Moby Dick Auto marvels are truly showcasing their potential, with buds swelling and resin production reaching its peak. The once-tiny flowers have evolved into dense, resinous clusters, promising a generous harvest in the near future. Trichomes are abundant, signaling optimal cannabinoid potency and aromatic richness. 📏 **Final Phase of Flowering**: As we enter the final phase of the flowering period, our focus is on maximizing bud development while ensuring ideal ripening conditions. By meticulously managing environmental variables such as temperature, humidity, and airflow, we're creating the perfect environment for our plants to flourish and achieve their utmost potential. 🍃 **Leaf Aging and Nutrient Management**: As anticipated in the late flowering stage, some leaves may exhibit signs of aging as the plant redirects its energy towards bud formation. This natural progression indicates that the plant is nearing maturity. Meanwhile, our nutrient regimen remains carefully calibrated, providing essential elements to support vigorous flowering without risking imbalances or deficiencies. 🔍 **Monitoring Trichome Ripeness**: With harvest drawing near, we're closely monitoring trichome development to determine the optimal time for harvest. Using magnification tools like jeweler's loupes or digital microscopes, we're scrutinizing trichomes for signs of ripeness, aiming for a blend of cloudy and amber trichomes to achieve the desired balance of cannabinoids, as well as flavor and aroma complexity. 🌞 **Preparation for Harvest**: As we gear up for harvest day, our checklist includes gathering essential tools such as trimming shears, drying racks, and storage containers, as well as ensuring a hygienic and organized workspace to preserve the integrity of our precious buds. We'll employ proper post-harvest techniques and curing methods to safeguard terpene profiles and enhance overall quality. In summary, Week 9 signifies a pivotal juncture in our Moby Dick Auto grow expedition, where patience and precision converge in anticipation of the impending harvest of our prized buds. Stay tuned for the forthcoming update as we rejoice in the culmination of months of dedicated cultivation, yielding a bounty of premium-grade cannabis ready for enjoyment and sharing. Happy growing! 🌿✨

April 19, 2024 Day 64 A new week and nothing to change. I took each plant out and separately took pics. But that's it. Banana Purple Punch A has a final height of 23". She is 24" from the light and the DLI is 43 mol/m²/d. She is the bigger of the two but has more space and less bud. The buds are still really nice and covered in trichomes. I'll get a couple pictures in when I remember to. Banana Purple Punch B has a final height of 21". She is 23" from the light due to the risers. The DLI is 44 mol/m²/d. She's the smaller, but has way more bud and it appears the size isn't going to matter with this one. I can't really tell for sure what the yield will be for them, but if they bulk up enough, I may get 4 oz out of each plant. Maybe 5 depending on the bud density. No watering today. They will be needing water tomorrow though. I may pull back on the Overdrive. I'm getting some burning tips. I'm guessing it's the dose of Overdrive. I'll drop it down to 4 ml instead of the 8 ml it's currently at. Same thing with the Bud Candy. I just don't think they need the full dose. Especially when everything else is getting a half dose. The light is obviously staying the same this week. Probably for the next 2 weeks. Unless they start to finish up super quick. So maybe another 3 to 4 weeks left on the plants total. The environment is a bit off today. The temp is kind of high at 78° and the humidity is also kind of high at 56%. I'd much rather everything be down. 75° and 50% is good for now. Still don't know how I'm going to get the humidity down to 45%. I may have to work with 50% for the rest of the grow. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.2° RH: 53.3% VPD: 1.31 kPa April 20, 2024! Happy 420! Well, today was watering day. I decided not to add the Overdrive today. It should help with the nutrient burn. Next watering I'll start the 4 ml dose. I also dropped the Bud Candy down to 4 ml also to help with the nutrient burn. Banana Purple Punch A looks great! Her buds are super fat. I can't wait to see the end result for this lady. Great leaf to bud ratio and beautiful colors. Banana Purple Punch B is getting super fat buds. Not as big as Banana Purple Punch A, but still swelling. I'm also fairly certain that, Banana Purple Punch A started flowering earlier, so her buds are naturally further along and of course are bigger. However, Banana Purple Punch B has more bud throughout the plant. When the buds really start to swell, I may not see branch anymore. Lol. That would be fantastic. The lighting didn't change yet again. The environment is back to normal today. The temps are gradually climbing up from last night's 68° with the humidity staying happily at 51%. As I said, it would fix itself. Happy days! Now it's at 74° and should be back up to 76° in a couple of hours. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.4° RH: 52.3% VPD: 1.30 kPa April 21, 2024 Nothing going on today with these two. I'll be taking Trichomes pics in a few days. Maybe starting next week. I was planning on starting this week, and there are tons of trichomes, but not enough to be impressive. Banana Purple Punch A has super fat buds and looks great! She is a tiny bit crushed against Banana Purple Punch B and it's pressing the leaves inward. No big deal, but I need to document something. Banana Purple Punch B doesn't have the fastest buds like her sister plant, but they are still fat and compact. Hopefully they bulk up like Banana Purple Punch A. Her leaves are also being forced in from the contact with Banana Purple Punch A. Lighting is the same. The environment finally fixed itself and is now at 75° and 49% humidity. Looking great! Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.4° RH: 49.7% VPD: 1.39 kPa April 22, 2024 Nothing going on today. I filled the jugs with the nutrients and they are standing by. Both reservoirs are still about a quarter full. So watering will be waiting for either first thing tomorrow or later today. The advantage is I don't have to water just in the morning. I can water anytime, so when the reservoir is near empty, I can refill it. Hell, I could do that later tonight. But I don't think I will unless necessary. I don't like to pull the plants out more than once a day, just Incase they get stressed or damaged somehow. But I take them out for inspection and solo pics. Banana Purple Punch A is getting heavy buds now. The branches are starting to sway in that way now. She looks great! Banana Purple Punch B is also looking great! She had a couple leaves snipped off today. Just a couple though. 2 leaves that were being crushed. Other than that, her structure is still great and her buds are coming along nicely. I may be expecting this to finish up in the next 2 to 3 weeks. As always, the lighting has stayed in place. Another week and we shall see if I'm dropping the intensity down. We will see what the plants are doing. The environment is doing quite nicely. A good 75° today with the humidity at 50%. I couldn't ask for any better with this setup. It has been dipping down to 48%, so that's a good sign. The night temp and humidity are still looking pretty good. Steady humidity at 50% and the temp average for last night was still 68°. I'd like to see the average at around 66° for the rest of the run, but I'm still having trouble getting the temp that low. It did drop down to 65° for a bit last night, but through the night, the temp needs time to drop and I only get about an hour or so of cold. I'm planning on cooling my room off earlier in the evening, so when the lights go out, we are down to maybe 72° and will drop even lower for a longer period of time. I'll start that next week I think. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.8° RH: 49.2% VPD: 1.41 kPa April 23, 2024 Not a lot going on today. Just watering and inspection. Both plants got the full watering and half the dose of Overdrive and half the dose of Bud Candy. Banana Purple Punch A has great fat buds, but spaced out quite a bit. She still looks super good though. Beautiful greens and good sized fan leaves. Banana Purple Punch B is the best of the two by far. She has the most bud and the cleanest structure. Leaf to bud ratio is right on point if not a little high. But no big deal. I'll be doing a wet trim anyway, so it won't matter too much. In the mean time, I'll just leave her alone. Just watering and observation. Both ladies have a wonderful aroma. Strong and sweet. A little hint of gas as well. It's a sharp smell, the best way I can explain it. It's not super heady like diesel, but sharp like petrol. I'd like to discuss the time frame these ladies have left. By the way they look, id say another 2 to 3 weeks. Maybe less. They have tons of pistils and only a couple have turned orange. So they're still going strong. The lighting is still spot on for these two. Depending on how they look next week, I may leave it or drop the power down. We shall see. The environment is looking good today. Currently 8 have it at 78°, but that will go down to 75° in an hour. I had to kickstart my heater and bring the temp up as quick as I could. Now I just have to adjust it down to 75° simple. Also, I discovered that my dehumidifier was off. Oops. Anyway, I turned that back on and the humidity is hanging just below 50% now. The VPD is around 1.60 kPa. Should be fine for the next few hours. Honestly, I'm pretty sure the VPD should be around 1.60 kPa anyway. But that's with the temp at 75° and the humidity at 45%. Currently it's fine, but with the dehumidifier back on, I should be able to lower the temp a bit and really drop the humidity. Hopefully. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.7° RH: 49.0% VPD: 1.42 kPa Nothing going on today. Just observation. What I'm observing is tons of trichomes. Frosty tops and leaves. Frost everywhere. I'll start with the trichome pics next week. Then we should have tons of good pics. Now if I can keep my hand steady... That's the trick. Banana Purple Punch A looks great as always. Her buds are getting fatter everyday. No orange pistils yet. Well, not an abundance of them. Just a few scattered here and there. You can tell she's got another 2 weeks left. But that's a good thing. Big ole fat buds. Lots of frost and tons of smell. Banana Purple Punch B looks majestic. Her buds are coated on trichomes and she's almost at the place where I can really call her frosty. Not quite yet though. I want a full blanket of frost. Very close. And with her structure, she looks all the better. I'm not expecting to move the light for at least another week or so, and even then I may only drop the power down to 80%. I just don't quite know yet. The environment is a bit off today. The temp is fine at 75°, but it's the humidity that is a bit high today. It's holding at 52%. Nothing crazy, but definitely not below 50%. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.6° RH: 50.9% VPD: 1.41 kPa April 25, 2024 Today is the end of week 9 and moving into late flower. Things will be changing starting next week. Lots to document. Nothing to do today. Both reservoirs are still too full to refill, so that won't be happening until later today or early tomorrow. There honestly isn't much to report at all. Everything looks the same as yesterday. The buds are bigger, but that's about it. Same thing with the lighting. Nothing to change. The environment is actually really nice. I have the heat in my room cranked for now. I've been keeping the tent around 76°. The humidity has been happy at 50%. I also managed to get the temp down to 62° last night. Not for long though. It was too cold on my room for that. Lol. The average for the night was 65°. Right where I want it. Now to figure out how to keep it at 65° without slamming it all the way down to 62°. The humidity was also nice and low at 48%. Excellent night temp. Let's hope I can keep it up. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.1° RH: 49.3% VPD: 1.43 kPa Quick update: I totally forgot to make the end of week video, so I made one today, May 1, 2024. I only did so because I'm switching to solo plant videos for the rest of the grow. Sorry for the confusion.

Still pluckin leaves here and there but overall we’re just watering every other day rotating molasses with recharge. Light smell starting to come through. Waiting for these pbb’s to start to frost up a little more. But the Candy Candy is showing really good potential. Looking better than last run for sure at this point.

Strawberry Cadillac – STRNG Seeds W9 01/04-10 These strawberry collection gals are growing steady during this early stretch. I gave water only last week to contain the stretch. I also turned the lights down to 80%. Other than Cadillac1 all the plants look the same so I tied ribbons to the pots as identifiers for pictures. Kitties lost interest in my leaves, now is play with the pipe cleaners. I’ll have to tighten them up as I found one on the grow room floor. Strawberry Cadillac -Purple Straw-Trop Cherry-Red Straw-Lectric Lemonade-Yellow. 01/05 Supercrop Last week I indicated I might supercrop Cadillac1 since she is so tall. Well, you will see pics during the process of bending the stem and taping the position. I pinched the stem in my fingertips and rolled it a bit, then bent the stem, (notice the outer casing is not broken) applied tape to the joint to keep the branch from completely bending over. Each side had at least 3 nodes. 1/06 the side nodes on the branches have turned up and made more tops. All gals show the beginning of white hairs identifying they are female. 1/9 Strawberry Cadillac #1 46” #2 37“ Strawberry Trop Cherry #1 24” #2 41” Straw-Lectric Lemonade #1 33” #2 35 A side note: I’m taking applications for Spring & Summer cabana boy (girls allowed to apply, no discrimination here) positions when I go to the beach. Strawberry Cadillac has the big fans needed for the job. Important dates 11/9 Germination 11/25 Transplant to 1.5 gal, 12/1 Topped, Pinned and removed 2 large center leaves 12/5 Repositioned pins and removed lowest fan leaves 12/16 Topped 4 tops on each plant except Cadillac1 (first topping) and put manuka honey on the cut. 12/24 Transplant to 5 gal 12/27 Defoliate all 12/28 Flip to 12/12 01/05 Supercrop Cadillac #1 at the joint where I topped her. Stay green, growers love 💚🌿 💫Natrona💫

She is experiencing a general yellowing all over. I contacted Advanced Nutrients support and they consulted me to increase the feeding. Let’s hope that she recovers fast. On the other hand, she keeps growing buds. Maybe a little stunned. That’s why I am waiting another 2 days for lollipoping.

Still growing strong actively. In particular Ryu developed lots of newly freshly white pistils but also the lower bud sites started to grow significantly. Fingers crossed that this will grow smoothly towards the end. The emergency harvested branches were ok but way to soon of course. At the same time they haven’t been very big either so I guess the impact on final harvest won’t be as big/maybe even beneficial as for air flow, nutrient supply etc for the rest of the branches. Also those I harvested have been excluded by my counting so far as I haven’t seen them since they were too low. There’s another one such candidate who might have to be emergency harvested as well but he’ll have a full more week and also he is heavily coated in sugar already. Let me know in the comments how well you can see the sugar coating, especially the lower bud sites sometimes have an excessive coating. Would be interesting to know whether this has anything to do with lower bud sites doing something that it makes them sugar up more. Or maybe it’s the light that is different in these darker areas The image quality in the video for some reason is much better often than in the photos. I don’t get why the iPhone isn’t just doing what it does in video mode in photo mode as well.

Dienstag (26.11) beschnitten erholen sich sehr gut

Inicio de su 5ta semana en flora las veo muy bonitas y grandes pese a la dificultad de disminuir la humedad y aumentar la temperatura un poco más, ya quiero que pase este mes para cosecharlas 😻😻😻

So far these plants have shown nothing but resilience and a will to grow I have put quite a bit of effort in but I’m sure I’m lacking in one or two spots but you would never be able to tell by the Look at the plants they seem quite happy and they are relatively patient with a new grower lol

Looking sweet. Stretch has now slowed down and there’s plenty of frost starting to show. In a few weeks there’s gonna be some beautiful buds if they carry on like this. Slight bit of burn at 1.2 but nothing major. Still nicking the odd fan leaf here and there to let the light down. Don’t really think it affects them when they’re strong like this and I’d far rather have the light getting down there then not. Roll on next week.

Start of week 7, scheduled feeding in the morning. Drinking about 3qts every 2-3 days. I'm excited about the floral smell that GSC is starting to emit. I've been reading about 9-10 week flower times. I've also found amber tric's (>10%). Ordered new batteries for my jewelers loop ³⁰×, ⁶⁰×. I'm excited to get a closer look. More pictures and videos will be uploaded as the week progresses. Also added my lady friends Calla Lilies to the mix since the bulbs were sprouting in a dark closet. ☆Day 47 I'm going to try and get another 3 weeks out of this girl. Buds are visually changing daily. Any questions or suggestions drop me a line! Happy Gardening 🌱✌️🖖

Avevo staccato due cime per pianta delle kmintz. Mantengono quello che sentivo mentre le toccavo. La prima pianta sa di caramelle zkittlez con un fumo che nell aria non è il classico odore di erba ma qualcosa di incensato e mi fa impazzire.La seconda è decisamente più complessa. Zkittlez/frutti di bosco/nocciola/gas. Ho scritto oggi a Ripper Seeds facendo vedere un po di foto e mi hanno detto di tagliarle pure anche se manca qualche giorno rispetto ai 63 dichiarati dalla casa.Ho già ricomprato 5 semi perché le rifarò sicuramente se non il prossimo ciclo quello dopo. Le due Watermelon Zkittlez proseguono la fioritura. A settimana prossima coltivatori 💪🤞

Plants moved to final growing area. Lights added. Ground cover to be added. Spraying done to help fight fungus, insects and some nutrient application.

Man I had the weirdest dream...and for some reason I wanna put lotion into baskets...🤔. Anyway I'm probably just stressed out cuz beans said I need to start paying rent. It's hard to get a job as a plant so I'm getting desperate. He said I owe him $50,000 a month/friend price. Seems high but it is a pretty luxurious closet. It even has clothes in it. I'm about to go hit the streets and try to hustle up that cash but if anybody wants to help by donating a lot of $ to my cause 'Feed the Leaf' here's my link. https://paypal.me/pools/campaign/110064055993592970 Anything helps... God Bless (blessing is given by the God of your choice but is redeemable at any God's location)

unfortunately we noticed some budrod in the headbud. we cut it generously sb, unfortunately the papaya cookies still need something and the weather is now autumnal cold and rainy. We'll see in 7 days at the latest, but hopefully there won't be any more budrod by then... It's the most beautiful of all the outdoor plants so far.
