Hello This is the end of week 6 and the beginning of week 7 of flowering. These plants will go for Meds as well as smoking. Showed some pictures of the Rick Simpson Oil I've made and I made a gallon of tincture too. Pics are for the extract contest. I take the tincture when I forget to take my oil or I need a break from the oil. I try not to eat much acidic food and drink... That helps too.... try to eat alkaline as much as possible. But all the good tasting food is acidic. I try to avoid sugar too. Cancer likes sugar. One of the Pink Kush plants leaves are going a yellow a little early.... Wonder what's wrong.... got to look into that... 3 More weeks to go before harvest.... Lots of Fun... OK. Be Great. Chuck.

Ordered a scale the other day so should have some more numbers tomorrow! Not going to sample anything until I get the scale, then I'll update with some more details.

🌳 Week 13: Well, they're happy... almost too happy! The canopies are filling up again and getting incredibly dense down below. Especially with the squatter, Indica-leaning strains, I'm honestly getting concerned that they might be too dense, and cause mold issues. We do not want that! So, they all came out of the tent again and got their most aggressive cleanup yet. I took more bottom branches off and made more clones, and then also just cut out some other smaller branches, particularly ones that were growing back inward or in some cases even crossing over others. The differences between the indicas and sativas are starting to become more apparent as the plants stretch, and some of the sativas are almost 16" tall. I actually ended up topping a couple of the very tallest branches before they stretched any further, again in an effort to keep the top of the canopy as level as possible. I'm also experimenting with using some wire rings as inserts to spread out the top of the canopy, and pretty pleased with the initial results.

As i told in the first week, this summer i didn't growed at my home, so this is the only morning i came to check the sun raise. Finally the second Think Big became a Bermudas Triangle, she's growing mostly horizontal as you can see, meanwhile, the first Think Big entered into flora stage, she's going to create a small "cola" and very very soft, i'm never going to harvest this plant. *****ESPAÑOL***** -----SUMARIO SEMANAL----- 30/06/18: Vídeo 1 y Fotos 2 a 4 01/07/18: Fotos 5 a 8 02/07/18: Fotos 9 a 13 04/07/18: Fotos 14 a 16 El vídeo muestra un timelapse de una mañana que fui a casa de mi amigo a comprobar a que hora empezaban a recibir luz las plantas. Como comento en la primera semana de este diario, este verano no he cultivado en mi casa, y esta es la única mañana que iré a comprobar el amanecer. Finalmente la segunda Think Big se ha convertido en el triángulo de las Bermudas, esta creciendo muy horizontalmente, mientras tanto, la primera think big ya ha entrado en flora, va a crear una pequeña cola muy muy blanda, nunca recolectaré esta planta.

Day 1 repotting and start using nutrients

Think these will be done by end of week 8 possibly, adding UV + IR for terpes and pushing for an earlier finish! 🍋

Week 3 from seed, 1st week of Veg. Transplant to a 5-gallon fabric pot, they will grow in living soil and set up auto drip irrigation by using Netafim Netbow.

Week 8 of flower is in the books and this show is quickly coming to an end. I said last week we had about 7-10 days and I was spot on at the 10 day mark. I was only wrong about the order. The cheese is ready to chop before the rest and the gorilla cookies, cherry Bomb and lemon haze will follow in due course. The cheese is a beast and it’ll take a little time to get it all run through the bowl trimmer. At least the big one goes first. Her tallest colas have foxtailed like mar, despite the late supercrop. You can tell where the sweet spot for the light is at about 10” distance from the canopy. Any closer than that and the tails begin to show prominently. It’s a good example of just how close you can get to these fixtures with a little bit of prior experience. It’s been noted for the next run😎👍😎. The res. is on an h2o2 only flush for the remainder until the rest are ready to come down. Not a moment too soon either - the pollen chucking project has stalled out waiting for these girls to finish and now that we’ll have a little extra room, we can start running our cuts in the aerocloner🤟. Not long at all now folks. Thanks for tagging along through all this. Learned a bunch about this system and we’re back to hardware mode to make some serious improvements for the next run🤙😎. I love hardware mode😉. Background/Repetitive Nonsense The strain line up on this grow is look’n quite saucy 😈. We’ve got 2 FB strains this time around - Gorilla Cookies (seems we always have some GSC cross in the works). Mainly because the colours look stellar and remind me of a sugar breathe we did last year that was 🔥. The other FB is their original Cheese strain... because we already smoked all our cheese... and we really like our cheese...😉. Emerald triangle was kind enough to include a freebie of Lemon Haze. Wasn’t really big on the list but we haven’t done a haze strain to write home about yet so worth a go👍. The last is a Cherry auto from Bomb seeds that we’ve been trying to get to for months. Let’s just hope that she’s not a dud like the last bean. The new digs for this run are courtesy MarsHydro👊. Their 2x4 single grow tent, paired with a shiny new 240w QB courtesy ViparSpectra. These folks were kind enough to discuss a collaboration and as a result, here we are to test out the gear with an inaugural run of autos. Each week, we’ll try to expand on some of the benefits of each, as well as any limiting factors or considerations that need attention when pondering purchase. Already I can say that both are high quality products in terms of overall craftsmanship. MarsHydro 2x4 Grow Tent: Excellent construction in terms of durability. Reinforced stitching on the zippers and corners ensures zero tearing. Conveniently placed screen vents and intake/exhaust ports. The ceiling exhaust port only exists on the right side. Perfect for me but not great if you’re running exhaust from the top on the left side (left side wall port makes up for this however). The aluminum frame is rigid enough to support the weight of the lights and accessories. Once you have some weight in the tent, she’s go’n nowhere and you can assemble and break it down in record time if moving or stashing the grow op. Only limiting factors I’ve noticed is that temp. Control will be an issue for a tent. It just doesn’t have the same insulating ability as a wood cabinet or other permanent enclosed space. No worries, this is offset by a small desktop heater and keeps the environment exactly where desired. The other issue was a production problem - the ceiling vent was accidentally stitched into the corner seams on the assembly line. Again, no real issue - just pulled it out with no damage or fraying to the tent or port👍.

Closest comparable to it that I’ve seen would be spiderfarmers line of qbs. They feature the same top-o-the-line components and roughly similar spectrums. Where VS takes the advantage is in the convenience of the dimmer nob which is easily accessible and works great at 50% with no strobing👍. The heat sink is also larger which contributes to lower temps. That’s not a good thing in my case but beneficial for most folks. I can already say that this will be a great fixture through all stages of growth. Where I know this light will excel will be in the veg. Stage for sure. Dimming function gives seedlings a much better chance of success with the ability to use lower lighting levels early on and the coverage area on a 240w is great. The average grower will find this panel suitable and fitting to their needs in a 2x4 grow space although I’d suggest 2 units if going any larger than that. The total output in this space equates to about 30w/sq.ft. Which is a decent amount of coverage based on power vs. Growprint. Ideal for veg. Certainly but, in flower - I tend to run closer to 50-60w/sq.ft to achieve higher yields. Again, similar fixtures have performed admirably in the past and while this wouldn’t be considered an “entry-level” fixture, I’d recommend that any grower new to the game not skimp on lighting and start with one of these. The price points are a great value for quality LED tech. These days, so there’s little reason to even consider a lesser fixture👍. I have no detail on limiting factors for this light as yet but have heard that stock branded fixtures don’t necessarily incorporate enough red diodes. I’ve seen no issue myself but confess - I’m no lighting guru.

Started at 7.30pm Let's wait until 48hrs has passed So we can start uploading pics Day 1-3 First 48 hours doing well Amnesia woken up looking good 65hrs she's got some mist 8 inches light distance And 18/6 schedule AK47 still under development She's taking longer than expected It is okay to wait for 5-10 days top If she doesn't sprout at that time then she's not good to begin with. Hopefully this isn't the case Let's wait be patient and nature will reward us! Day 4 Amnesia is doing well AK47 not even popping out Hopefully she comes out after some days Not sure if will happen but we already trying to germinate another one Started today soaked in water Let's hope this method works since jiffy pellets are taking too long for this genetic, maybe geaseeds are not so good in soil (jiffy) compared to the others, I doubt it since it's a great starting medium, anyhow... Come back tomorrow for more! Day 5 upcoming Did AK47 sprouted?

This week i defoliated on day 18 because i have way too many top coming out and too many lowbuds that were getting no light from being covered by layers and layers of leaves. All strains but the og Martian have real tight internodal spacing.

Fun week- buds started packing on mass and frost. just watering til chop day, except for the green crack which is about halfway through flower.

W9- Light 20/4 I will apply nutrient for last time. After this week I’ll start flushing. 1-2 weeks to harvest. They smells good same as i bought from my dealer😂 🍀🍀🍀

Overall its been a decent grow had some high temps but all the plants have turned out good in there own way this is the 1st time I have not lollipopped and I got alot of small buds for making extracts and hash etc the next grow will all be lollipopped and we will see some bigger nugs

When lightning strikes, it tears apart the bond in airborne nitrogen molecules. Those free nitrogen atoms N2 nitrites then have the chance to combine with oxygen molecules to form a compound called nitrates N3. Once formed, the nitrates are carried down to the ground becoming usable by organisms. Will it react with the oxygen in the air spontaneously, the answer is no. The mixture is chemically stable indefinitely. A mixture with air near the release point can be ignited, but if this does not happen then when its concentration gets below 4% it will be unable to carry a flame. A nitrite (NO2) is a nitrogen atom bonded to only two nitrogen atoms. Very strong bond. A nitrate (NO3) is a nitrogen atom bonded to three oxygen atoms. Weaker bond
