Grow Report Week 10: The Beginning of the Flowering Phase Hello dear grow community, We have entered an exciting phase: the first week of flowering is over, and the plants have fought their way to the light. It’s a time of growth and change, and I’m here to report the latest from my grow room. The Flowering Phase The switch to a 12-hour light cycle has begun, and the plants have adapted well to the new routine. Except for the Banana variety, all have overcome the net. The Banana is a bit behind, but I remain optimistic and hope it will catch up soon. My space is increasingly filling up, and the health of all plants makes me very positive. Temperature Control Thanks to the TrolMaster controller, the temperatures remain constant at 25 degrees during the day and 22 degrees at night. The simulation of sunrise and sunset also seems to have a positive effect on the development of the plants. Stretching and Defoliation I hope the stretching continues for another two weeks so that all plants get enough light. After this phase, I plan to defoliate the plants finally. Fertilization I continue to follow the scheme when fertilizing, paying particular attention to the dosage of Cal/Mag and adjusting it as needed. Support I would like to thank all of you for the incredible support over the past few weeks. It is a joy to share this hobby with such a passionate community. Anticipation I look forward to the coming weeks with confidence and am excited about the progress we will make together. Until the next update! Thank you for stopping by, and see you next time! 😊

So like at the end of last week can be seen she started flowering. I defoliated her because she was bushy, LST and a little super cropping. I see the tips of the leafs turned down so i didn't gave her any more BioGrow since last week. All is going smooth and kinda fast :D. The humidity in my tent is going up because the wedding cakes are in full flower :D but no problem, I did put 2 small dehumidifiers in the tent and turned the Mars Hydro oscillating fans on almost all of the time. The fans are also new to me because i had cheap ones in the past , must keep an eye out not to give them wind burn :) . In just 12 hours i reduced the humidity from at it's peak 64% to 50% and at times a little lower then that. It is also pretty stable, except like the day i water. I am pretty pleased with that for now 😊. 1/10/25 Because I see a lot of clawing and here and there burnt tips i did a little flush. At the end of flush runoff at PH 6,0 ppm 1050. I like how I can play with the lights up and down to try and create the perfect amount of light for each plant. RH in tent at 48 % and stable. Must keep and eye on because of the flush :D 1/11/25 So 24 h after the flush and she is reaching for the sky. I also see very little improvements or it is a placebo effect :)) Tent temp 23C and RH 44%- 48% . New photos added :D. 1/12/25 After 48h she is reaching and preaching with her branches to the sky :D Happy and growing, developing very nicely. Little Purple calyxes can also be seen at the bases of developing flowers. End of week, in tent RH 50% temp 22 avg. Doing LST once every 2 days or so. Not to often or to harsh but just to show my love

Woche 12: Sie Blühen schön vor sich hin, aktuell sehe ich wenig Veränderung, die Blätter haben etwas Braune spitzen bekommen, eventuell wegen der Trauermücken, die Larven gehen die Wurzeln an. Ich habe bereits Nematoden bestellt und werde diese in die Erde geben soweit diese da sind. Licht Stas: 12h: 82,3 DLI / mol/m^2/d 1.839 PPFD umol/m^2/s 53000 LUX

Día 36. Estamos en 6ta semana. Los esquejes se atrasaron debido a que han sido días muy fríos y no he logrado enraizarlos. Decidí poner el extractor de aire junto con la bomba de aire, así solamente se prende 15 minutos cada hora. Así estoy logrando temperaturas mayores a 24°C en el indoor y así voy a lograr el enraizado. La planta ya tiene un tamaño que ocupa casi todo el indoor. Pero lo importante es que la voy guiando y ya estoy proyectando como va a ir cada rama. El tamaño va a exceder lo que esperaba, pero aún así creo que si logro lo que tengo en mente, voy a sacar muy buenos resultados. Igual no me voy a arriesgar demasiado, así que si contando 10 días desde ahora, no logro que los esquejes enraicen, voy a pasar la madre a floración sola. Cómo pueden ver, las ramas están bastante gruesas, y el la ramificaciones van ganando su lugar cada una. Las raíces son demasiado grandes, aunque sé que voy a poder poner la planta en el sistema de arriba igual, aunque me voy a tener que ayudar de algo para meterlas. Es importante no utilizar las manos, ya que se pueden transmitir muchos hongos. Voy a seguir actualizando e ir viendo que pasa. Pero ya estamos en los últimos días de crecimiento, haya o no esquejes. Incluso puede que ya pase la planta al indoor de arriba para darle mayor libertad de crecimiento. Esto me va a servir para tlmar en cuenta en la próxima camada que se vendrá. La idea de esto es hacer las cosas rápido, y no en gran tamaño. Pero siendo que ya estoy en el baile, no me queda otra que bailar. Día 40 Los esquejes no estaban enraizando, así que decidí cambiarlos de lugar y los puse arriba de la luz, donde les da calor y luz tenue. Espero que ahora si agarren. Y hoy fue el gran día, pasé la planta madre al módulo de arriba. Pero lo voy a dejar una semana más creciendo. De esa forma veo si los esquejes llegan a agarrar a tiempo. Y además tuve un problema en el trasplante. Primero que la planta se hizo más grande que lo esperado, y la raíz también. Cuando la pasé, hubo contacto de la raiz con prácticamente todo lo que había cerca. Sumado a que se enredó en el oxigenador, así que quedó una pidra difusora en la raíz. Dado el alto riesgo de haberla contaminado con algún hongo, le puse una solución de agua con agua oxigenada, recirculando continuamente, para lavar las raices y de paso bajar el stress de teansplante. Mañana veremos cómo arranca el día. En el aprendizaje me llevo que en la madre, es mejor hacer un corte en el primer nudo, o dejar las ramas del segundo y quitar las del primero. Y así que queden sólo dos ramas, para luego dejar a los esquejes en el medio. Eso planeo hacer con la próxima variedad. Entre tanto ahora sólo me preocupa que la raíz no se haya contaminado en el traspaso. Ya en 8 días estaré pasando a floración si no hay esquejes. Si llegan a agarrar, habrá que dar unos días de crecimiento hasta que alcancen a la madre en altura. Pero ya está todo en definición. Ahora sólo queda esperar y seguir guiando a la planta. Ya tengo ganas de poner la próxima, pero falta bastante para eso. Tengo 10 semanas de flora, así que recién en 5 semanas voy a poner la nueva madre.

I took David Robinson's tip a little late " dont grow small flowers" So I took anything that was taking away from the main coals. Of that works out in my favour I will have to find out !! There is a large story behind there fine ladies . But for now let's just say f*ck cancer.

Hi all. Welcome to this run withbthe Viparspectra XS1500 which i was kindly sent to try by their helpful rep Valerie. As I have a fairly good space to use for my main grow , it seemed an ideal time to explore a few options while I wait for space to appear following upcoming harvests. The opportunity hit at a good time and has now driven the future play time. lol The light is a full spectrum 150W( at the socket) , Dimmable and very well made unit. As summer is here now , my concerns of more heat being an issue have stopped me from adding my other light so the smaller 2ftx2ft area covered by the XS1500 is a good option , The heatsink is built into the case design with a finned top to dissipate the heat so no noisy fans. Switching it on to full power was a nice surprise as the footprint was way wider than I had expected and the actual coverage is even better for my Nursery to harvest plan.... I am growing autos perpetually at present and have been able to throughput the plants with just 2 lights and using the overlaps at the edges to bring seedlings along to veg/flowering, as harvesting is finishing. The timing had been working well but the plants were getting smaller towards the last runs . I gave it some thought and Rh % came to mind. With the perpetual runs not having a higher rh in their veg periods due to other plants needing a lower Rh% in flower , the vapour pressure deficit (vpd) was not within veg periods healthier range. This current run has exploded and filled my normal space very quickly which in turn means I cannot use the same principle as the last perpetual run of bringing the next ones along ready for the exchanges. The XS1500 takes care of this issue with it being perfect for an initial nursery light that is easily covering all the new seedlings but is also able to cover my experimental "5 plant 1 Pot" attempt. I have placed 5 of my own autob seeds from a previous seeding in a single 60 L pot and intend to strip them to their 4th nodes and only allow 2 mains per plant to develop and flower. Inam hoping to have 10 mains growing in it that will be under the xs1500 solely as the other plants outgrow the lights footprint and space they are in. They will go into the main grow space once able so i can really see how well this new light can flower with the 10 mains to fill the space. Until that point , I will diary as we go and see what we can achieve.

Very excited for my first grow! There are so many great resources online, I was encouraged to give this a try even though I was intimidated at first. The Kush Grow Kit put together a lot of the items which made it easy to get started. I added the grow tent and the fans and we're ready to grow. The kit recommended no nutrients for the first 2-3 weeks, so I'm waiting two weeks to add their vegetation nutrients. If anyone has a good reason to add them earlier, please comment! As far as light schedule, I was planning on doing 18 or 20 hours, but my buddy was like "what the heck?" let's just do 24/7. If anyone has a good reason to do less, please comment!

PKBR #2 is showing a couple leaves of what appears to be cal mag issues + senescence fading. I expect I’ll be able to ride it out til finish. It also happens to be the best smelling pheno in the tent at the moment. Drinking has slowed down as stretching ends. Stopped defoliating in any significance after day 21 of flower to minimize herm risks. So far everyone looks happy and healthy Week 11end = 8/10

Day 72 since seed touched soil. All is okeish in garden. Twins are showing signs of light burn and toxicity. I always get toxicity during first few waterings with slow release nutes. One twin is bigger and way frostier than any other plant in garden. Mars TSL2000 is now on very healthy distance. Works fine. Temps are in good range. Humidity spikes to 70 on watering day, but is in 60-65 during others. Happy Growing !!!

🌱Welcome to my 2 x 4 ft autoflower tent. Here we Fast Buds tester 2210. We just finished the 1st week of flower with only a 3 week veg this should be a speedy grow. This week we top dressed with the first feedings of the grow.. I'm hoping they announce the name of this one as I get closer to harvest 😌💨 💧She has been receiving water every other day about 0.50 L of pH adjusted to 6.5. ✂️ TRAINING: N/A. 💡⚡Check Mars Hydro out on Instagram! @marshydro_aliexpress2 💡⚡
